The MediaFork website and forums were moved to HandBrake's, and the next release was officially named HandBrake. Plans were then made to reintegrate MediaFork as a direct successor to HandBrake. On 13 February 2007, Hester and Long were contacted by Petit who informed them of his support and encouraged them to continue development. Hester and Long named the new project MediaFork. Unable to submit their revisions as a successor to HandBrake, Hester created a subversion repository mirroring HandBrake's final subversion (0.7.1) on the HandBrake website and began development on top of that.

Hester and Long made progress in terms of stability, functionality, and look and feel, but it was not possible to submit their patch to the HandBrake subversion repository without authorisation from Petit. Since their work was complementary, they began working together to develop an unstable, but still compileable, release of HandBrake supporting the H.264 format. In September 2006, Rodney Hester and Chris Long had been independently working to extract the H.264 video compression format from Apple's iPod firmware (1.2) through reverse engineering before meeting on the HandBrake forum. From May–June 2006, no one in the HandBrake community was successful in contacting Petit, and no further code changes were officially made. Petit continued to be active on the HandBrake forum for a brief period after.
He continued to be the primary developer until April 2006, when the last official Subversion revision was committed.
#VIDEO CONVERTER PINEAPPLE SOFTWARE#
HandBrake was originally developed by Eric Petit in 2003 as software for BeOS, before porting it to other systems.
HandBrake clients are available for Linux, macOS, and Windows. These are collected in such a manner to make their use more effective and accessible (e.g., so that a user does not have to transcode a video's audio and visual components in separate steps, or with inaccessible command-line utilities). HandBrake's backend contains comparatively little original code the program is an integration of many third-party audio and video libraries, both codecs (such as FFmpeg, x264, and x265) and other components such as video deinterlacers (referred to as "filters"). It was originally developed in 2003 by Eric Petit to make ripping DVDs to a data storage device easier. HandBrake is a free and open-source transcoder for digital video files.
