updated to v15.2.0.0
 special note: Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8+ is required to run the application. new : Ultimate and Crystal engines have become 10% faster. new : Environment -> Appearance: The "Horizontal scrolling for long paths in the Main Window". It allows you to rearrange the columns in the main window and get the horizontal scrolling for paths:  new : The main context menu: "Open Result containing Folder" menu item. new : Use "Home" and "End" hotkeys in the Main window to jump to the very beginning and to the very end of the list. "Shift+Home" and "Shft+End" do the same but with the selection. changed : Faster addition of files to the program, faster selection and deletion of items. changed : Environment: The "Appearance" button is introduced. The "Restore last window position after restart" was moved there. changed : Environment: The maximum Timeout value for screenlists has been increased to 60 mins. For animations - to 120 mins. fixed : Jerky OGV (Theora) animations for the 64-bit version of the application. fixed : Redundant scrollbars in Choose Shots Manually interfaces. fixed : WebVTT didn't take into account the "Save each job into its own Folder" setting. Nvidia card users: The minimum required Nvidia driver version for H.264 / H.265 animations is 456.71 or newer. AMD card users: The minimum required Adrenalin driver version for H.264 / H.265 animations is 20.2.1 or newer.updated to v15.1.0.0

new : 32 and 64-bit versions of VTM are available. The 64-bit version has no 32-bit memory limitations. The 64-bit version is shipped with internal (embedded) codecs as well as the 32-bit version.
The only known issue about the 64-bit version (at the moment) is the impossibility to create an OGV (Theora) animations. 64-bit version is the option of choice for the rest of cases. Please note: when you use Engines 1 and 2, they use your external codecs, so you need 32-bit codecs to be installed in your system for 32-bit versions of VTM and 64-bit codecs to be installed for 64-bit versions of VTM. new : Ultimate engine: Hardware acceleration is added to the Codec-Independent "Choose shots Manually" interface. new : Ultimate engine: Improved hardware acceleration could also be noticed when processing, for instance, a 15x15 matrix for a 20 minutes length video (when the frames in-between key-frames are needed). The new version is 2x faster in such cases. new : Environment Settings: Timeouts. You can set the time limit to create a single screenlist within (15 sec - 20 min) range. You can set the time limit to create a single animation (30 sec - 40 min). When the timeout is reached, VTM skips to the next item in the main list. new : The "Timer" label is added to the top right part of the main window. It shows the current time progress and the Estimated Time of Completion after completion of the first item in the list. new : Options: "Extend Matrix" checkbox in added to "Advanced Timeline Control" window. Enable it to let VTM add additional rows to your matrix when the "Specific Timestep" exceeds the matrix. new : Tooltip hints for the main window items are working during the video processing. Hover the first column to get details (the current state, time spent for the main output, time spent for the animation). new : Choose shots manually: Drag & Drop is working for snapping frames as well as for swapping already taken shots. new : Environment Settings: *.RAM checkbox is added to the "Video Extensions". new : Video card name is written to the Diag.log file at startup. changed : "MultiFiles" checkbox now depends on the new "Extend Matrix" option. Disable the "MultiFiles" checkbox to get the main screenlist only. Enable it to get "MultiFiles" also. changed : Tech details: FPS is always printed with 2 fractional digits. changed : Tech details: Video bitrate measure unit is "kb/s". changed : Tech details: Audio bitrate measure unit is "kbps". changed : Few cosmetic changes. fixed : VTM freezes when creating animations with invalid parameters (too narrow, too large, etc.). fixed : Some animations could freeze the application after cancellation at the very beginning. fixed : VTM failed to create long WebM animations with audio under certain circumstances. fixed : GIF animations did not respect 100% / 50% / 33% framerate settings. fixed : Command line interface did not support relative paths to video files correctly. fixed : Wrong processing order after sorting of items in the main window list.----- Changes in Pictures Thumbnails Viewer 5.0.0.0 -----

Thank you for all your requests and responses, you really help me to keep projects up to date. new: ULTIMATE engine! Lightspeed fast, codec-independent engine. ULTIMATE engine is ten times faster than the former leader - Extreme engine. Please note once again, Ultimate engine uses built-in codecs, so you do not need to care about codecs anymore. The speed is really amazing.You can find YouTube demo and Engine speed comparison chart below. 
Ultimate Engine in action https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHz06Lnvj7Q new: "Secondary engine" setting is added to Environment window. Secondary engine is used to backup Primary. It is used automatically when Primary engine fails. Then the program switches back to Primary. new: Generate thumbnail sheets IN A BATCH right from Videonizer (another my project) version 3.0.0.0 or later! Select any quantity of Videonizer items, open a context menu and locate "Screenlists" section. Thumbnail sheets will be generated and added to Videonizer items automatically. You can cancel the job at any time. Also you can select any VTM Options and VTM Settings in Videonizer Settings window. Interaction between VTM and Videonizer is demonstrated below:Quick screenlists in Videonizer

VTM creates a result picture in any case. The program uses embedded stub-image for each failed/missed file. changed: From now on "Create animated GIF" feature does not require "Output each Tile to a separate file" feature to be turned ON. Nevertheless, settings from "Output each Tile to a separate file" section are still applicable to "Create animated GIF". Moreover, GIF files can be generated without VTX or Classic output. changed: More hints (tooltips) are added to Environment window. Tooltip is a pop-up window that displays information for an element in the interface. changed: "Diag.log" file in the program's folder has become more informative and user-friendly. changed: New Folder Browser dialog is used to select "Output Path" in Quick Settings, as well as in Environment window. changed: "Memory economy mode" is removed from Environment window.
