Render Room 0.8.0 adds powerful new visual editing controls and improves export reliability. You can now fine-tune videos with Color Wheels and Curves, including Lift, Gamma, Gain, per-channel curves, Bezier handles, reset controls, and preview/export rendering that stays aligned with the final output. This update also improves batch export behavior, repeat exports, diagnostics for bundled media tools and AI model readiness, recent-file recovery for moved sources, encoded preview layout, localization coverage, and release packaging checks.

What’s new: AI Upscale, custom presets, better previews, and more control over exports. • Added AI Upscale for sharper video exports, powered by on-device Core ML models. • Added GIF x4 AI Upscale for animated GIF sources, preserving frame timing and loop behavior. • Added custom export presets so you can save, reuse, rename, update, and manage your own conversion settings. • Added output filename templates with built-in presets, custom tokens, and live filename preview. • Added rotation controls for video exports, with matching preview and export behavior. • Improved encoded previews with clearer AI Upscale status, side-by-side comparison labels, and better playback control. • Improved estimated size feedback with Estimated, Measuring, and Measured states when sample-based calibration is available. • Added better export failure recovery with retry actions, copyable error details, and destination switching. • Polished the inspector with clearer Quality-first controls, smarter preset menus, and improved AI Upscale guidance.

What’s New * Added MP3, WAV, and FLAC audio support, including import, preview/edit workflows, and export with format-specific quality controls. * Added a new encoded preview system, so you can render a short sample using your current export settings before converting the full file. * Added side-by-side preview comparison for MP4 and MOV exports, with a draggable split view to compare the original source against the encoded sample. * Added MKV and WebM source support, including preview, trimming, cropping, visual adjustments, batch thumbnails, and export workflows. * Added Hindi and Swedish localization. Improvements * Major trim controller improvements: playback now starts from the trim range, timeline clicks behave more predictably, trim ranges can be dragged as a segment, hover timing is clearer, and controls no longer cover the video. * Improved HDR editing and export consistency, with better handling for Visual adjustments, LUT warnings, HEVC HDR output, and SDR/HDR conversion. * Improved recent-file history with sharper thumbnails, better first-launch loading, GIF thumbnails, and more reliable Finder drag-and-drop handling. * Improved export size estimates and bitrate decisions so estimates better match the selected codec, quality, frame rate, trim, speed, and dimensions. * Added faster VP9 options for WebM and MKV exports, plus clearer codec labels and codec guidance. Fixes * Fixed WebM preview sizing for sources with non-square pixel aspect ratios. * Fixed GIF export resizing so custom dimensions preserve the source aspect ratio. * Fixed source-FPS exports so “Original” FPS keeps the source frame rate more reliably. * Fixed trimmed exports that could show a one-frame black flash in some players. * Fixed several stability issues around native exports, preview generation, recent-file history, and HDR HEVC export.

What’s new: cleaner color workflows and HDR-aware exports. • Added LUT support for applying creative color looks. • Added HDR detection and HDR-aware export optimization. • Improved visual export controls for more deliberate results. • Refined the conversion workflow so advanced color options stay accessible without making everyday exports feel heavier.
