Motivated by Ice Spectre's recent release of his brilliant HandBrake icon, I decided to update my HandBrake GUI tweak.

The only real change was was the addition of a browse button for the top section to mirror the lower one. I've also made sure that it works with the latest HandBrake (0.7.1). Oh, and I'm not calling it a beta anymore.


Download nanoBrake 1.0

To Install:
- Control-click on HandBrake and select Show Package Contents
- Navigate to Contents -> Resources -> English.lproj
- Rename the existing MainMenu.nib file to MainMenu Old.nib
- Drag the nib file you downloaded into the English.lproj folder
- Enjoy a non-ugly HandBrake

It does have "normal" buttons. I'm just using a ShapeShifter theme in the screenshot.

Neat, too bad I don't really use handbrake anymore.

That's quite impressive. Although it does mean more mouse clicks to turn on subtitles. I've always liked the way Handbrake made all the options obvious.

It would be great if you could choose which commands you use most often and just show those in a main pane, and then separate the rest off. For instance, I always use the same format/codec, audio settings, and video options (apart scaling the movie down). So the controls I would want to see are: file name, subtitles, scale picture, and queue.
