v2.1.0: Added Capability to configure additional external converters besides ReSampler

Ferocious 2.1.0

This release introduces the new Converter Configuration dialog, which allows a potentially unlimited number of external command-line converters to be added to handle additional formats.

The parameters for a few of these (notably mp3 and m4a) are included in the default settings.
(Of course, the user must supply the converter binaries themselves)

v2.0.7: Added Recursive Directory Traversal and Mock Conversions

Ferocious v2.0.7

• Can now recursively traverse files in a directory tree and preserve the directory structure in the output
• Mock (Trial) conversions for doing test/practice runs before converting for real
• Fixed bug with kinetic scrolling interfering with Scroll-Bar
• Added "Select entire directory ..." option upon right-click of 'Browse ...' Button
• Now accepts combinations of input directories and input files from drag-and-drop, and preserves directory structure in output.
