Wiideo Center 0.3.3 out now!
The next release for Wiideo Center is ready for download!
From the changelog (since the last major Version 0.3.0): - added support for image-based (.iso .img .bin) playback of DVD/VCD - added support for vob files (no language/chapter selection though) - added new picture mode for slideshows - added subtitle support (.srt subtitles) - added support for chapter selection in videos - fixed minor problems for video playback
- about-dialog implemented - added "-systray" flag for startup in minimized mode - added setting for custom http-port - added setting for auto-update feature - added manual update check - improved segment handling - added .flv support - improved utf-8 support (for non latin1 languages)
This update is available through the update-mechanism or go to the Sourceforge download. Just follow this link!
 Chapter List generation
Here is a small guide to the new functions:
 Video Playback Options
For those of you who wanted to change the HTTP-Port of the application:
 Preference Dialog
And of course the new "Picture Mode" which automatically creates Slideshow's for you:
 The new Picture Mode
Wiideo Center now also supports Subtitles in the well known .srt-Format. Your subtitle File must be in the same Directory as the Video-File and have the same Filename except the File-Extension.
As for the DVD-Playback: It is still in an early stage. So there are some drawbacks: - you can play DVD's in iso Format only if the DVD contains no Menu-Structures. - If you play the .vob-Files directly, be sure to select the vobs of the main movie, not the menu. This will not work!
Of course, there will be a fix for this in the near future.

New Theme for Wiideo Center in progress
Thanks to Peter Timson for creating a very promising Theme for Wiideo Center. Feel free to check it out in the Theming Section.
If you have time, do leave him a comment on what you like or dislike.
Thanks again :-) 
Hotfix for Wiideo Center
Due to a bug with newer versions of rmvb videos found by a fellow user (thanks again!) i just issued a new version of wiideo center, release 0.3.1
To download this fix, just start wiideo center and it should check for new versions or you could simply wait for the application (it checks for new updates every 3 hours) to find the new version.
I will upload this new release to sourceforge in a couple of hours (but you don't need to download it as long as the update process finishes without errors)
Thanks again to the community for the help!
Update: Revision 0.3.1 is now ready for download at sourceforge (you only need this if you are new to wiideo center)

Wiideo Center 0.3.0 Released!
Finally! The work is done lads! I just completed the new version of Wiideo Center which now has some cool new features as requested by the honorable posters in the feedback section!
If you just want to download this version follow this link!
--------------------------------------- New features: * Added Online Update-Feature * You can now minimize the application to the SystemTray (Docking) * Added MP3 Playback support * Added support for mp4 and rmvb videos ---------------------------------------
As a small note to the update feature: the application now polls on every startup and after every 3 hours a sourceforge server and checks if a new version is available. If so, you are prompted if you wish to upgrade. This process is really simplified and each new version should only need ~ 2 MB of your downstream bandwidth :-)
Here is a small sample screenshot:

So now its easier for me to distribute a hotfix (if needed) to all of you at once.
Thanks for your patience and as always, give me feedback if you wish to see special features in the future!

Schedule
Hi Folks,
i know that i am behind the scheduled release of Version 0.3.0 which will have Playlist and mp3 support.
I didn't had much time to implement these new features due to my Master Thesis at University and my job ( yes, i do have to make a living ;-) )
Also i have to fix some bugs within mencoder related to false segmenting. This does take considerable time.
Well i plan to release Version 0.3.0 in mid-september, after that Version 0.4.x with DVD support is following in mid- to end- october (tight schedule because of the release of halo3 *g*) and the last non stable release of series 0.5.x with linux and mac support from november to december.
As always, if you want to help with development, just contact me or try out the project page on sourceforge.
While still developing Wiideo Center i am starting a new "secret" Project going by the acronym "sgrts". I can't tell you much at this moment, but its going to be BIG :-) 
Wiideo Center 0.2.0 released!
Finally i had some time to invest into this Project. The following new features have been added:
- a rich new Graphical Userinterface instead of the Textonly listing
- speedups and bugfixes while transcoding your files
- animated thumbnails
Here is an example Screenshot of the new GUI while showing an animated thumbnail:
 The new Frontend GUI
So if you want this new release just click here to get it! 
Linux? Mac?
While the Frontend GUI for Wiideo Center is still in development, i have another announcement to make: The Linux version is almost ready, but still needs some testing. The Mac Version will follow soon after the Linux release. So stay tuned! 
Wiideo Center 0.1 Released!
Despite the fact that the Frontend GUI isn't finished yet, i decided to release the current Version of Wiideo Center to the public. At the moment you are stuck with the text-only interface which has only minimalistic features but serves its purpose. The Graphical Userinterface will be finished soon.
So if you can't wait to check this application out then download it here!
Bugfix update available
I discovered some bugs related to the new mencoder binary included in the 0.1 release and because of that the new 0.1.1 release is ready for download. 
Project approved
The Wiideo Center Project has been approved by SourceForge.net. You can visit the Project Page right now by following this link. Any releases will be posted there, but this is still the official site for Wiideo Center. 
Wiideo Center update!
I added some Pictures of the Frontend (seen by the Wii) and the new Graphical Userinterface Backend (running on your PC):

Listing of Files

Playing a Video

Backend GUI
The Frontend is still Text only but it serves its purpose. This is going to change with the next Version which will be the first public release. And no worries, i am a professional Web-Designer so the Frontend should look pretty good ;-)
The Backend GUI is finished for the moment, but maybe someone wants extra features, so the will get implemented sometime in the Future.
For those wondering if all my Videos being listed are legal: yes the are! Just head over to http://www.onlinetvrecorder.com which is a personal Web VCR. Please use this application only if you obtained the Videos you are going to transcode legally!
If you are interested in a pre-public-release Version of Wiideo Center feel free to mail me: kadrim1983@users.sourceforge.net
Cya next time!
