What's New in Version 0.10.5:
Unfortunately due to circumstances beyond our control we can no longer include binary distributions of HandBrake which include the FDK-AAC encoder.
Please also be aware that if you are distributing any previous 0.10.x you must cease doing so now due to licensing issues.

Release Highlights
- Removal of FDK AAC from our binary releases. 
 	 + Please see out AAC Encoder Change Announcement to understand what this means. 
- Updated x265 to 1.9 which brings bug fixes and performance improvements.
- Few minor bug fixes since the 0.10.3 release. This includes improvements in large AVI file handling.

We would also like to again remind everyone that handbrake.fr is the only official place to download HandBrake. If you do download it from another website, we highly recommend that you verify your download against the SHA1 checksums provided via the download page.

macOS 10.12 Sierra DP For Windows PC

A DETAILED STEP BY STEP GUIDE:

Pre-Requisite:
Windows OS:10/8.1/8/7 [Only and ONLY 64 Bit OS is supported]

RAM: 4 GB+ [Please do not try installing MAC OS X SIERRA DP if you have less than 4 GB RAM. The Virtual OS will simply crawl].

CPU: Intel Pentium Dual Core/i3/i5/i7/Celeron [AMD ATHLON/PHENOM PROCESSOR IS NOT SUPPORTED NORMALLY, THERE ARE WAYS, HOWEVER THOSE ARE ONLY FOR GEEKS]

Free Hard Disk: 40 GB for MAC OS X [YOU DO NOT NEED TO HAVE 40 GB IN C:/ DRIVE].



Step One:
Start or Restart your Computer.
Now go to UEFI or Bios setup.
Find for 'INTEL VIRTUALIZATION TECHNOLOGY' and Enable the option.
Save and restart computer.
Boot to Windows.


Step Two:
Install VMware Player 12.1.1 Build 3770994 as an Administrator. 
While installing you may or may not install 'Enhanced Keyboard Driver'. This is up to you.
Uncheck 'Product Updates' and 'Help Improve VMware Workstation Pro' options. Proceed.
Click 'Finish' and now you are done.


Step Three:
Install WinRAR. Copy the rarreg.key to C:Program FilesWinRAR and paste it there for Licensed copy of WinRAR.
Note: If you have pre-installed any version of WinRAR, it will do. Do not bother whether licensed or not.


Step Four:
UnRAR VMWare Unlocker 2.0.8.
Inside the folder run win-install file as an Administrator.
Done!
Now VMware Player 12.1.1 Build 3770994 is patched to accept MAC OS X as guest operating system.


Step Five:
Double click VMware Player 12.1.1 Build 3770994 to open it.
Click 'Create A New Virtual Machine'.
In the next screen select 'I will install the operating system later'.
In the list of Guest Operating System select 'Apple Mac OS X'.
In the 'Version' field select 10.11. [AS THE LATEST PATCH IS NOT RELEASED JUST SELECT 10.12]
Click ‘Next'.
In the next screen type the virtual machine name. For example, you can give a name like MAC OS X 10.12 – Sierra DP. However, this is up to you what name you want to give.
Now browse to select a suitable location for the Virtual Machines RAM file. Say, for example if you are ready to allocate 4-8 GB in your D:/ drive you can type D:/MAC OS X RAM DISK. So in this case under your D:/ drive a new folder namely MAC OS X RAM DISK will be created and some files will be automatically created over there.
Click next and keep the maximum disk size as 40.0 GB.
Select 'Store virtual disk as a single file'.
Click ‘Next' and select 'Customize Hardware'.
Hardware Customization window will appear.
Select Memory as 4 GB. [YOU MAY SELECT LESS, YOU WILL SUFFER...]
Number of processor cores [YOUR PROCESSOR...YOU KNOW BETTER]
USB Controller>USB Compatibility [Your MOTHERBOARD...YOU KNOW BETTER]. However better to choose 2.0 if not known to you.
Close this window.
Click 'Finish'.
Exit VMware Player 12.1.1 Build 3770994.


Step Six:
Go to D:/MAC OS X RAM DISK folder and open it.
Open VMWare virtual machine configuration file ‘MAC OS X 10.12 - Sierra DP' (2 KB size) by right clicking over it and clicking 'open with....'
Select 'More apps' and then browse to open this file with Notepad.
A file will open in notepad with lots of configuration. DO NOT ALTER ANYTING IN THIS FILE. Go to the end of the file i.e. the last line and type exactly what is typed in the next line:
smc.version = "0"
[The above symbol is ZERO.]
Save the file and exit.


Step Seven:
Assuming you are ready to spend at-least 25 GB in your D:/ drive create a folder in D:/ Drive, say D:/MAC OS X HARD DISK.
Copy the downloaded MAC OS X 10.12 - SierraDP (VMWare virtual disk file with .vmdk extension – 6.0 GB size) to the folder D:/MAC OS X HARD DISK.



Note:
DO NOT WORK WITH THE DOWNLOADED COPY OF MAC OS X 10.12 - SierraDP 6.0 GB FILE. 
TAKE A COPY OF THIS 6.0 GB FILE AND PUT IT TO THE DESIRED LOCATION YOU WANT, SAY D:/ DRIVE, E:/ DRIVE etc. THE OS INSTALLATION WILL MODIFY THIS ORIGINAL FILE, SO WORK WITH A COPY. ALSO WHERE YOU PUT THIS COPY MUST HAVE AT LEAST 25 GB SPACE.

Double click VMware Player 12.1.1 Build 3770994 to open it.
Click 'Edit Virtual Machine Settings'.
Select Hard Disk (SATA) 40 GB and REMOVE it.
Now click 'Add' button.
Select Hard Disk.

Wait patiently and watch the famous ‘MAC APPLE' logo.
Select ‘MAC HDD' as your target installation disk.
Select your Country. [FOR NOW AS THIS IS DP VERSION THE LIST IS INCOMPLETE]
Click ‘Continue'.
Select your Keyboard.
Click ‘Continue'.
In the next screen let ‘Don't transfer any information now' be pre-selected. Click ‘Continue'.
In the next screen you may or may not select ‘Enable location service on this Mac'. Click ‘Continue'.
Click ‘Agree' arrow.
Now wait for near-about 15/20 minutes for your installation to complete.
Your Virtual Machine will reboot.
In the new screen type your ‘Full Name', ‘Account Name', ‘MAC OS X Login Password'. This is up to you what name, password, password hint you will choose. You can also change the Login Picture'.
Click ‘Continue'.
Wait few seconds and you are logged into MAC OS X Desktop.

Step Nine:
In the Upper Right Corner of VMware Player 12.1.1 Build 3770994, you will find the CD Icon.
Right-click it and select ‘Settings'.
Select 'ISO Image File' and browse to select the VM Tools.iso file which you have downloaded along with the VMWare virtual disk file.
Click 'OK'.
Now MAC OS X will show a window. There, double-click 'Install VMWare Tools'.
Click 'Continue'.
Click 'Install'.
Put the login password and click 'Install Software'.
Click 'Continue Installation'.
Click 'Restart'.
After MAC OS X Boots just right-click the VMWare Tools folder over desktop and eject it.
Right-click CD icon and select ‘Settings' and select ‘Your physical drive'.

AKVIS Retoucher

AKVIS Retoucher is an efficient program for photo restoration and photo retouching.

Not only removes dust, scratches, stains and other defects that appear on damaged photos but is also able to reconstruct missing parts of a photo using the information of the surrounding areas.

The work is done automatically; you only have to indicate areas to be restored, push the Run button, and here you are – the surface becomes smooth and imperfections disappear. It looks like magic when you observe the scratches vanishing before your very eyes!

AKVIS Coloriage

AKVIS presents the cutting edge technology of automatic photo colorizing that will change your ideas about image colorization forever!

AKVIS Coloriage manipulates the colors of an image: from colorizing old black and white photos from your family album to replacing colors in your color photos.

Make a present for your grandmother by adding color to her school photo, replace the colors of your car to see how it would look in scarlet, see how you will look if you dye your hair red.

AKVIS Coloriage creates natural-looking colorization in a quick and entertaining manner. It works equally well for coloring of portraits, landscapes, fashion, and still life. The skin, sky, verdure, and tree color patterns help users to select realistic colors for their picture.

Apply your creativity and you will find a wide variety of other usages for the software. You can create colorful backgrounds out of ordinary dull pictures, you can use Coloriage to get rid of the red eye effect, to make selective color correction, selective desaturation and colorizing, etc.

AKVIS Coloriage is as easy to use as a coloring book. No layers manipulation, no complicated techniques, no more hours of frustration attempting to get just the look you want – everything is done with a few brush strokes.

Indicate the desired colors by the stroke of the brush; the program does the rest of the work: recognizes the object’s border and tailors the new color to the grayscale tones of the initial picture.
