New in Audials One 2021 (Mar 24, 2021)

  • Video & TV:
  • HIGHSPEED RECORDING:
  • You'll now get all your movies and series from popular streaming services at breakneck speed. The trick: Audials prompts your browser to play videos at twice the speed, and then records them with no loss of quality! This is especially handy when it comes to batch recording: all your videos will automatically be saved to your hard drive, but at double the speed!
  • OPTIMAL FRAME RATE up to 60fps:
  • You'll now be able to enjoy enhanced video quality thanks to the feature that makes sure that videos are automatically saved at the optimal frame rate! The frame rate of the source video is automatically detected to ensure that not a single frame is lost. This allows you to achieve unparalleled video recordings without having to worry about a thing! Also, Audials now supports recording videos in 60 fps.
  • IMPROVED GPU SUPPORT:
  • We've worked on optimizing the use of graphic card-based encoding and this now works automatically. This lowers the performance requirements and decreases the likelihood of problems occurring in the video recordings. All of the video profiles indicate whether or not GPU support is available, allowing you to benefit from it with all output formats.
  • AUTOMATIC VIDEO TAGGING:
  • Information related to your recordings such as the name of the movie/series, actors, year of release, genre, director, short description, DVD cover, etc. is now automatically added to all your saved videos. Manual adjustments are always possible, but no longer necessary.
  • YOUR NEW VIDEO LIBRARY:
  • From now on, the movies & series available in your video library will be displayed as clearly arranged tiles. Thanks to the automatic tagging feature, your video library will always be kept tidy and will be organized into genres and series without you having to do anything.
  • SAVING MADE SUPER EASY:
  • Any video on video sharing websites can now just be dragged and dropped into Audials to be recorded. You can choose the quality level, e.g. to 1080p (Full HD) or even 4K. Thus, your videos will now be loaded to your hard drive in a much quicker and easier process.
  • LIVE VIDEO RECORDINGS:
  • Audials 2021 now supports the recording of live video streams as seen on Twitch, YT live, Facebook live, and other services. You can determine which parts of the live stream you want to have recorded. Audials now also includes a timer (to schedule a recording for a later point in time) and an auto-stop function if you only wish to record up to a certain point. The recording quality is optimized, so you will always get perfect quality video files.
  • TV IMPROVED:
  • Numerous improvements make the experience of well-known TV channels such as CNN, ABC News, BBC, ITV, and others even more pleasant. There is more content from TV channels and media libraries. Thanks to the better presentation, you can now find the content you want more quickly. Recordings are made in higher quality and sorted more clearly depending on the genre of the video in the area Entertainment.
  • MUSIC & RADIO:
  • EASIER TO LOAD:
  • Thanks to the new user interface, extending your music collection has never been easier. Simply drag and drop your songs, albums or playlists into Audials and have them recorded for you at 30 times the normal speed. Or simply play them using the music streaming service - Audials will save everything. Audials will also always select the ideal settings, but you have the option to change them at any time.
  • EXTREME SPEED:
  • The speed is automatically adjusted according to your PC's capacity. Whether you're using the upgraded drag and drop function or you're recording in the background, you'll get your music up to 30 times faster than real-time speed. Audials 2021 loads music at more than twice the speed compared to its predecessor! You can now download one hour of music in just two minutes.
  • In a process that is now faster than ever, you'll receive music files that have been perfectly trimmed and tagged, and are 100% error-free.
  • TOP QUALITY – OPTIMAL BIT RATE IN YOUR DESIRED FORMAT:
  • Things have been made much easier now for you as the user: Audials always automatically uses the ideal format settings depending on the service and output format.
  • On Audials 2021, it is much easier to choose which format to save your tracks in. You can either use standard formats like MP3, AAC and WMA or high-resolution audio formats like FLAC and WAV.
  • This means that services such as Tidal, Amazon and Deezer, which stream in lossless quality, are automatically saved in top quality, while music from other sources is saved in a standard format.
  • A particularly useful improvement is that Audials now knows the optimal bit rate for all output formats for all important streaming services. If you, for example, type in "Amazon quality "high" in MP3", Audials will generate a 320kbit/s MP3. However, if you switch to M4A, you will instead receive 256kbit/s M4A, as Audials knows that this is more efficient in terms of coding.
  • FIND AND LOAD MUSIC FAST AND CREATE PLAYLISTS:
  • When looking for songs, Amazon Music is now also available in the search in addition to Spotify, Soundcloud, and video sharing websites - this way you will definitely find exactly what you're looking for! Once your music has been located, it'll be loaded faster than ever before.
  • We've also massively improved the playlists. All it takes is a single click to add all of the songs to your collection. You can then listen to them whenever you want and create playlists until your heart is content, and of course load them later if need be.
  • MUSIC MANAGEMENT FULLY REVAMPED:
  • You have a massive music collection with all sorts of genres? We've now replaced the core of the media management with a brand new high performance solution so that even the scanning process is incredibly fast. Every change you make, no matter how many songs it affects, is now instantly visible. This music manager will never keep you waiting, be it 1000, 10,000 or even 500,000 songs!
  • The new music manager will display all your music from any number of storage locations in one place, and always in a clear and orderly fashion - this includes all your files on your PC, your phone, cloud storage, or even your streaming services.
  • With unprecedented flexibility, you can choose how you would like your tracks to be organized. You can specify virtually any rules for folders and file names, and Audials will quickly rearrange your music collection, of course making sure that any new files are also added accordingly.
  • ORGANIZE MULTIPLE MUSIC COLLECTIONS:
  • With Audials 2021, your tracks are all displayed in one place for you to enjoy and sort into playlists, regardless of where they are saved. A new feature divides them up according to their storage locations: this enables you to browse through your various music collections and copy songs from one collection to the other. You can view any number of collections at once and choose to show/hide them at any time.
  • RADIO & PODCASTS – EVERYTHING AT A GLANCE:
  • The tiles for radio stations and podcasts have been improved and it is now much easier to see what's currently being played. All the main information will of course still be visible. This also applies to the Audials Radio app.
  • A CLEARER OVERVIEW OF RADIO, PODCASTS AND TV:
  • Audials 2021 features what is probably the largest integrated index of hundreds of thousands of radio stations, podcasts and television shows. We've also redesigned the layout to provide a clearer overview of all media. The Audials Radio app also features the newly designed user interface.
  • Bonus Functions:
  • BRAND-NEW NAVIGATION CONCEPT:
  • The new toolbar is designed to make sure that you never have any difficulty navigating Audials, despite the many navigation and customization options. You'll always be able to see exactly where you are in the top left. And in the top right, you can type in what you'd like to watch/listen to and the results will immediately be displayed thanks to the instant search function.
  • BREATHTAKING EXPERIENCE:
  • Explore the vibrant new design, which matches our website and is much easier to use. Locating important functions has never been this simple. Immerse yourself into the unique world and explore it bit by bit.
  • BETTER OUTPUT PROFILES:
  • It's now much easier for you to choose the right output format thanks to a wide range of audio and video profiles. In the case of music files, we distinguish between standard quality and high-resolution, lossless quality formats.
  • IMPROVED AUDIALS APPS:
  • If you're using the Audials app for Android and iOS, you'll also benefit from all the improvements made to the areas of radio, podcasts and navigation.

New in Audials One 2017.0.30797.9700 (Feb 9, 2017)

  • 10 times More Monitored Radios Boost your Music Supply!
  • Only the six-time software-of-year in the category music Audials One has a wishlist with which you can automatically record your music from the best Internet radios in a targeted manner. This has always existed only with Audials and is now however with 10 times as many radios in the monitoring much better!
  • Raise the Roof with Top Songs and Wishlists:
  • There's no diet here! Dig in to more radio, more charts and more music!
  • Before we get to the quality innovations, let's first talk about the numbers involved in the new Audials Generation 2017. There's music from 3,000,000 different artists, 1,450,000 of which have their full discography available right now! There are 12,000,000 songs, plus everything that music portals and other video sharing sites have to offer in the form of music videos! And there's a lot more:
  • New Top Songs Feature for your Music Wishes
  • Tell Audials your music taste (by giving it a reference song, for example) and Top Songs will create a playlist of songs that match your taste via the music search. You can play and download the hits individually or grab them all at once. And it works for music videos, too. This means you can get plenty of new music from Audials in a matter of minutes. Top Songs also works if you select a specific genre or artist.
  • Climbers, Popular Tracks or Evergreens? You Decide!
  • You can decide whether you want the latest hits, popular tracks or evergreens from a particular genre. You can also narrow your selection even further by specifying the release year.
  • What's Better than the Audials Charts? Even More Audials Charts!
  • The new software brings you the latest monthly Audials charts as well as all of the past charts for free, with 80 more added every month! This means plenty of top 10 hits from the rock charts, US music video charts, pop music charts, dance charts, US single charts, and 80s charts are now available at the push of a button as well as newcomer recommendations from Audials. With all of this music, you'll never be bored again!
  • Songs in the highest quality!
  • Audials 2017 now provides studio versions of your music wishes from connected music portals or via smart radio recording. There are no live recordings, no presenters and no adverts – just crystal clear recordings like you used to get from a CD. Audials also gives you additional versions of a song as usual, of course, but the best version is now always the first thing you see!
  • Getting Music from One Wishlist is Great, but Several Wishlists at Once is Even Better!
  • And now for the main course. With several wishlists at once, the new Audials Radiotracker 2017 can satisfy even the greediest of music fans. Simply create your first wishlist, maybe add the monthly Audials charts and another wishlist from the community and - voilà - your own personal menu is created and the best Internet radio stations are served.
  • Music Wishes now better than ever – clearer and easier to use!
  • We have already pre-selected the best settings in Audials to enable you to get the best music. This means all of your music wishes are fulfilled as quickly as possible and in the best quality! This is what we stand for and is the reason we also offer a money-back guarantee if you do not like our product. Of course, you can still change individual settings, but they are no longer as prominent as before. Instead, they are shown discreetly in a single background window. You now also get information on songs that are currently recording, songs that are still missing, and wishes that have already been fulfilled. Audials automatically generates a playlist for every fulfilled wishlist, and you can immediately find every hit in the Media Center with a simple click.
  • Check Out the New Music Wishes Function in this Slideshow! You'll be Amazed!
  • A picture is worth a thousand words. We could spend a lot of time explaining all of the other things that improve your Audials experience, but you can just click on the button instead and enjoy the show! The table provided a compact summary of the functions shown in the slideshow.
  • Music Wishes - New and Improved:
  • Higher quality results with new Audials server power
  • Fulfill several music wishes at once
  • Many simplified functions due to new user interface
  • Everything in one place: Job settings for fulfilling wishes now grouped together
  • Different versions of a song can now be wished for as audio and/or video
  • New Audials notifications keep you informed as your wish is being fulfilled
  • Wishlists are now saved to your user profile and can be used from a different Audials PC

New in Audials One 2016 14.0.37304.400 (Sep 14, 2015)

  • Existing Auto-Update Functions of the Predecessors:
  • For all generations of Audials Windows software to date, the databases for internet radio stations, music search plug-ins, podcasts, music TV stations, artist discographies, ID3 tags with album images as well as the music universe artist images will be maintained by the Audials team at various intervals and updated in Audials software automatically in the background. With your unique Audials software license or Audials subscription, you therefore have access to an extensive, extra and free service using existing Audials technology. We will continue doing so and in the future it will be even better!
  • Streaming Is the Trend of Our Times:
  • Audials is the leading streaming recorder for saving from all paid-for and protected media services. This is something that freeware tools cannot do. Even if they could, it wouldn’t be for a very broad range of platforms and it wouldn’t last very long due to platforms constantly changing their technologies. Audials has a team of software engineers for maintaining of the ongoing functionality of the Audials recorder by constantly adjusting it and developing it further. This is an investment for us and a promise for our users. However, it is only if the Audials software is kept fully updated that the recording functions can be safeguarded. Prior to the latest generation of Audials, this meant time-consuming effort for users. However, that’s all changed a whole lot with Audials 2016.
  • New Additional Auto-Update Function with Audials Generation 2016:
  • Thanks to years of software development, an important shift has taken place from the software (installed on the PCs of users) to the online Audials server. The number of updates to download for installation and the resulting time consumption is therefore drastically reduced. Conversely, Audials 2016 users can benefit from new improvements and tweaks immediately when launching the software! Only with Audials 2016, can users keep pace with technological developments, such as those for streaming!
  • Audials 11, 10 and Older Cannot Record Protected Streams That Use Current Technological Standards:
  • Due to the ongoing changes to platforms and the technological improvements of recent years, older Audials generations cannot record any streams from portals and media services that have switched to the current technological standards (or from other sources once they do so soon). Expired Audials generations, purchased prior to 2014, cannot record any protected streams because the Audials technology did not exist at the time. In addition, they are no longer supported. Information about this development and its implementation was provided in 2014 with the release of Audials 12. This switchover will probably be completed by the paid-for services by the end of 2015, with many video portals likely to follow suit in 2016. If you want download videos from YouTube as well as recording films and TV series from paid-for services, then switching over to Audials 2016 is not something you should hold back from.
  • Music Functions Also Benefit Hugely from Auto-Updating:
  • The wishlist function which uses the newly compiled artist directory also benefits enormously from the new auto-update function. The database for music by top artists from each of the genres as well as for albums and samplers is always as fresh as the day thanks to the new auto-update function. Charts to add to your wishlist will also be made available by means of Audials 2016’s auto-update in the future. The recording function for music also benefits immensely from the new auto-updates: From Audials 2016 onwards, the recorder is automatically equipped with the most up-to-date coding for recording protected streams as soon as you launch the software.
  • Audials 2016 is Optimized for Windows 10 and Runs Great on Other Microsoft Operating Systems Too!
  • Microsoft is ushering in a new era with Windows 10. We are following suit because the future of computing belongs to Windows 10. Therefore, many of the adjustments and improvements to our Audials technology have been developed and optimized with the latest Windows operating system in mind. Nevertheless, Windows 8, 7 and Vista are still supported and provide for the full range of functions in the new Audials Generation 2016.
  • Audials Generation 2016 Screenshot Show:
  • Plenty of time and effort has also been invested into the design and appearance of Audials 2016. You can activate different user interface skins in Audials according to your taste or mood. Our screenshot show demonstrates these alternatives to you. Prepare to be impressed as you experience the new Audials software with its new look and feel.
  • With a purchased license key, Audials can be installed and used on up to three Windows computers. Audials AG adjusts the current generation of Audials software to developments on the Internet and in the Widows operation system at its own expense. Therefore, in order to stay fully up-to-date all the time, all free updates within a given generation should always be carried out. From Audials Generation 2016 onwards, the updates are also free of charge but are carried out automatically. Audials software can also be used with no updates without any restrictions. However, without updates, functionality is lost over time or will eventually be completely lost once the installed Audials technology no longer corresponds to the standards of the related systems of third parties. Larger technological advances, as with Windows software in general and with the Audials software in particular, occur by means of a paid-for switchover to the next generation of Audials. Discontinued generations of Audials software of earlier years are either no longer technically supported or are supported at the discretion of Audials AG. For the best possible use of Audials software, we recommend not only carrying out all the free updates, but also getting the annual upgrades, or using an Audials subscription.
  • Mass recording is one of the radio recorder’s classic features. It has now been revamped and delivers better results. The information about radio stations has been further expanded with the use of stations’ social news feeds and artists’ Facebook and Twitter news, along with an improved tile-based view. With the radio timer and radio blacklisting, additional improvements have been implemented based on the wishes of the user community.
  • The Classic is Back: Mass Recording Fully Revamped and Improved:
  • Mass recording has been one of the most popular functions in Audials since 2005. With it you can amass lots of MP3s from a genre on your hard disc at amazing speeds. Over the years, however, it turned out that the genres specified for shows by radio stations were not always accurate. This caused some of the music tracks to be the wrong genre and the proportion of falsely categorized music continuously grew over time. With Audials 2016, the music recordings can optionally be checked first and only then are the tracks that actually match the desired genre saved. In addition, the user interface has been changed so that you can now set a target number of desired music files.
  • Radio Timer Substantially Improved:
  • The radio timer has been changed to enable the automatic recording of complete radio shows or episodes of radio dramas. Audials can now use the radio timer to wake up the PC for the automatic recording. In addition, multiple radio timers can be set, in order, for example, to plan recording shows at fixed times on different days. The user interface and the controls as a whole have been reworked so that the use of Audials 2016 not only delivers more possibilities, but is also easier and more intuitive for the user.
  • Social News and Radio Tiles:
  • For the huge number of fans who use Audials to listen to radio, we have perfected the radio tiles view. What’s new is that in addition to the radio stations, you can now also access the social news of the radio station via Facebook and Twitter in Audials. The icing on the cake is that you also get the social news about the artist whose songs are being played by the station. This means you get all the newest info both about the station and the stars!
  • Customer Wishes Come True: Radio Blacklisting:
  • Any radio station in the radio navigation or Audials directory lists can be permanently deleted from by using a blacklist. These radio stations are then not used for the different radio recording functions wither. In this way users can do away with stations they dislike and completely remove them from sight.
  • New and Improved Artist Directory, Combining of Multiple Wishlists and Many Other Innovations:
  • Only Audials offers wishlists for getting music for free, quickly, legally and in top quality and from a multitude of different sources. In Audials 2016, the most important function area for music fans has now been thoroughly refurbished and adapted with new functions to suit the new needs of users.
  • Head Start with New Artist Directory and a Music Universe:
  • Gathering together 1.000.000 albums by 870.000 artists in one directory has always been a challenge – one that we’ve taken on again with a new approach in Audials 2016. Thanks to the incorporation of musicians from the world of music, the wishlist is now more aesthetically appealing and, with its completely new user interface, it’s more visually engaging and therefore easier to use. The user experiences a plentiful flow of new ideas for additional music wishes by similar artists. For each of the included music genres, Audials now shows you the top artists for you to wish for with a single click. This gives not just an aha-moment, but also delivers a real WOW-effect!
  • Auto Update Brings You Samplers, Charts and the Current Hits by Top Artists:
  • In earlier generations of Audials, the databases of samplers and top artists were only updated with the software updates. With the switchover to Audials 2016, we’re introducing daily-updated databases, so that the new highlights for your wishlists are available directly at launch and without update installations. The objective here is to bring users an even richer and more extensive range of offers in the future, including when using the charts. This improvement is topped again, however, by the visual layout and the resulting interface with images. Switching over is really worthwhile!
  • Get Charts and Samplers Faster, New Single Hit Options and Many Other Improvements:
  • Audials is always growing to match growing demands. As part of this continuous improvement, the user interface has been modernized and enhanced with additional functions.
  • Audials Now Recommends Hits by Top Artists:
  • As soon as you access the music search, the brand-new artist directory is activated and suggests hits by top artists to you. You can then select the music you wished for directly or use the additional suggestions to become more familiar with top artists from 120 genres.
  • Faster Music Searches with Better Appearance and Two New Search Options:
  • Thanks to the development of new coding, search results now appear much faster. With the new Audials One 2016, you can chose whether you want just one artist’s version of the song being searched for, or versions from all available artists. This means that if you enjoy one song in particular, you can use this new Audials option to get all the renditions and cover versions by other stars. In the new artist directory, an image of the currently selected artist now also appears in the background.
  • Music Collecting Developed Further: Two New Search Categories:
  • With the new “Own artists” category, Audials shows you your very own music universe by using the images of the artists whose tracks are already in your music collection. With one easy click on the artist, you can now have Audials One 2016 add additional music for you. The “Charts, sampler” category from music wishes is, of course, also available in the music search, as is the artist directory.
  • Auto-Update Delivers Current Hits by Top Artists, Samplers and Charts!
  • With the switchover to Audials One 2016, we are now introducing daily-updated databases. This means that new entries into the charts and the newest hits by your favorite artists can be snatched up using the music search and saved directly to the cloud, your smartphone or elsewhere in the right format.
  • Brand New: Automatically Tag All Recordings of Movies & TV Series! Plus Many More Innovations:
  • In this area, much has been developed with experts for Audials Generation 2016 over a long period of time. This has been done so that you, the Audials One 2016 user, can continue to record video streams from Netflix, Amazon, Maxdome and many other platforms, doing so even better than before. Many improvements and innovations have been made inside the program itself and therefore cannot be fully appreciated from a screenshot. To experience them fully, you’ll need to experience the software hands-on and for authentic use.
  • Doing Everything We Can to Assist You:
  • In the predecessor version, Audials One 12, we introduced preconfigured recording methods with tiles for the most popular video streaming services as well as the control window. This was the first step towards simplifying a complex process and enabling you to use the best recording method for any stream with just a few clicks. Building on this innovation and developing it further, we have now refined the process so that you get step-by-step help about the right method to achieve the best results. Among other tweaks, this process has also been substantially improved in the control window of Audials 2016 and expanded with additional help.
  • Small Cause – Big Effect:
  • In the predecessors to Audials 2016, the setting for frame rate was fixed at 25 frames per second (FPS). If the recording source also ran at 25 FPS, then there were no quality problems. More recently, however, many of the larger video services have increasingly been making the changeover to streaming videos, series and films at varying (and sometimes arbitrary) frame rates of between 23.98 and 29.97 FPS. One of the reasons for these different rates is the use of film streams on cinema or television screens. Audials 2016 gets you equipped
  • Higher Quality with the Right FPS Setting Thanks to Audials 2016:
  • Within a brief moment of the video stream starting, Audials One 2016 is able to determine its frame rate and gives a warning in the control window that suggests switching settings. This way, you can stop recording the film at the start, change the FPS setting and then restart the recording of the film so that the process is completed perfectly and without loss of quality.
  • Ensuring Successful Recording:
  • It’s easy to underestimate the workload placed on a computer when recording. For a 90-minute movie in full HD with a resolution of 1.920 x 1.080 pixels and 25 frames per second, a Windows PC has to record a total of 135.000 images and 279.936.000.000 pixels, while simultaneously playing the film. Many PCs are just not designed for this level of performance.
  • With the new Audials Generation 2016, the recording coding has been further optimized. In addition, there is also the new resolution limit function. This means there are better chances that even an entry-level PC or an older high-performance model can record and save full HD films from start to finish. Older versions of Audials unfortunately had no comparable facility for providing support to computers lacking processing power.
  • Auto-Tagging of Films and Editor for Manual Changes:
  • In Audials 2016, films recorded from online video services and TV series recorded from online players are automatically named and supplemented with tags for the video title, DVD cover image, genre, year, cast, director, producers, scriptwriter, production company and country of origin in addition to the information about the recording source, bitrate and the containing folder. Using the editor, you can change this information manually at any time you want later on.
  • Avoid the Annoying Commercials of Media Services and Video Portals:
  • Commercials, commercials and more commercials! It’s free to watch music videos, funny clips by amateurs and professionals and so much more. However, the video portals often bombard you with advertising clips before you watch. Although this is important for the service’s financial sustainability, it can make things annoying to watch. In any case, no one wants to record these commercials. That’s why Audials 2016 has a commercial blocker so that advertising before the main video is now recognized and largely avoided.
  • Another Important Innovation for YouTube and Other Video Portals:
  • All video portals stream videos the way they want themselves. While YouTube, the top dog in this area, uses no EME or other DRM system, the site is still always tricky to record because of its HTTPS-based protection. There are often commercials before the actual video clip and other advertising that fades in at the bottom of the player. Audials detects the initial commercials and can also do away with the other in-video advertising by using a special process. Simply enter the link to a YouTube video and then use the selection function (also a new addition) to choose the resolution, Dolby standard or 3D settings to have the video recorded immediately. You don’t need to watch the video again while this is being done.
  • Only Audials 2016 Controls the Chaos with the Display Protection on the Internet:
  • Different video portals use different protection systems for different browsers. This means things get really jumbled and that some portals cannot be recorded with certain browsers due to their DRM display protection. Audials 2016 delivers an intelligent solution: Based on the day-to-day work of our experts and by means of the new auto-update function, Audials One 2016 always recommends the best browser for recording!
  • Without Auto-Update Days Are Numbered for Recording Popular Online Video Services:
  • The big players on the Internet have already switched their video-on-demand services over to the new EME & HTML5 standards in order to protect their video streams. Video portals are increasingly using HTTPS. The remaining platforms and providers are going to follow suit. Only Audials from Generation 2016 onwards is in the position to deal with these new standards thanks to its new technology and auto-update function. These developments mean Audials 2016 is able to deal with the near weekly changes made to video platforms.
  • Now Record Music Services at Double Speed:
  • Lots of tools out there can record manually from audio streams. But only Audials can automatically record and save music streams as individual music files with all ID3 tags, album images and song lyrics! Now we are going one better and doubling the advantage:
  • High-Speed Ripping Delivers Double the Speed for Recording Music:
  • Audials can play music from Spotify or other music streaming services at double the speed silently in the background and record it with no loss of quality. This way you get lots of tracks saved in top quality in half the time with all ID3 tags, album images and song lyrics on your hard disc, in the cloud or transferred directly to a connected smartphone.
  • Mini-Window Evolution:
  • The mini-window informs you with additional notifications about the best method to use for each source. You therefore have absolute control while recording. The mini-window can now also be minimized. In this way, Audials can record music streams completely invisibly for you in the background.
  • New Auto-Update Function in 2016 Version Provides Top Technology with Every Use:
  • Not only when saving video, but also when recording music from Spotify and similar providers, the ability to record is dependent on having the latest and best version of the Audials recorder. Only with Audials Generation 2016 is the newest recording coding for your Audials Software immediately and directly provided every time you launch the software!
  • Universal Converter:
  • More Converter Power with 85 File Formats and 84 Device Profiles for PC, Smartphones, Tablets and Gaming Consoles:
  • With the changeover from Audials 11 and earlier versions to Audials 12 in 2014, the number of supported file formats for the universal converter was doubled. With Audials Generation 2016, we’re adding yet another 40% on top of that!
  • Convert for Everyday Needs Fast and Easy with 85 Device Profiles:
  • New and up-to-date device profiles and additional file formats provide even more flexibility and comfort in Audials Generation 2016. This means, for example, you convert a HD blockbuster movie to the right format with a single click and with perfectly adjusted resolution for your device. You bring the film and the devices – and Audials takes care of everything else, knowing all the most important details about video formats, including codecs, containing folders and the rest!
  • Computer Workload for Copying Films from Apple iTunes Often Underestimated:
  • In Audials 2016, the copying of protected films using playback-based recording has been further optimised. For a 90-minute film in full HD with a resolution of 1.920 x 1.080 pixels and 25 frames per second, a Windows PC has to record 135.000 images and a total of 279.936.000.000 pixels while simultaneously playing the film. Many PCs are not designed for this level of performance. With the new Audials Generation 2016, the recording coding has been further optimised. Using the new resolution limitation function, even entry-level PCs and high-performance models of years past can record and save full HD films from start to finish. In addition, you have full control while recording with the new mini-window.
  • Advanced Converting Settings:
  • If your device is not among the 84 preconfigured device profiles or you want to set up a specialised setting, then Audials One 2016 gives you access to even more options for configuring new individual profiles with an expert mode that has 1.000 possible combinations.
  • In Windows 10, Microsoft has not provided any software for the playback of DVDs. From Generation 2016 onwards, we have provided for the use of VLC Media Player as the playback software for recording so that when switching over to Windows 10, you can still continue to copy and archive your DVDs with Audials.
  • Seeing is Believing: Fully New Video Library with Plenty of Extras for Collecting and Enjoying Films:
  • Audials started out with music in 2004. Since 2008, we have also been dealing with videos. With Audials 2016, video functions have fully caught up thanks to the new video library for managing your films.
  • Finally! Auto-Tagging of Movies and Editor for Manual Changes:
  • With Audials One 2016, recorded movies and TV series from online video services and media libraries on the Internet and DVDs can be automatically named and supplemented with tags for the video title, DVD cover image, genre, year, cast, director, producers, scriptwriter, production company and country of origin in addition to the information about the recording source, bitrate and its containing folder. Using the editor, you can change this information manually at any time you want later on.
  • At Home It’s Now Like Using an Online Video Service:
  • Music collections and video libraries require files to be displayed and organized in different ways. That’s why we have developed and upgraded the video library for Audials 2016. This means you finally get your films displayed with the DVD cover images in a high-quality list view. Instead of only having a film title or description, you can browse through your video collection with the film cover images to find and play the video you want. With switchable viewing modes, you can choose for yourself whether your collection is displayed as DVD cover thumbnails, a column list or an overview list.
  • Your Video Library – Organized Optimally:
  • Tagged films are automatically sorted into a folder with the corresponding film genre. This means that with each new film added, your own personal video library is being automatically expanded. You can also manually add folders for your favorite actors or directors or, if a film has more than one part, put all the parts together in a special separate folder.
  • Experience Your Music with Further Improvements:
  • Online clouds come and go. Thanks to Audials, music collections keep on growing. That’s why it’s time for Audials 2016’s new approach to music management and supplying your devices with media.
  • Popular Clouds Are Automatically Recognized and Offered as Sources:
  • With Windows 10, Microsoft OneDrive is getting a huge boost and being increased in size. At the same time, it’s impossible to forget Dropbox as the pioneer in its field. These and other clouds are automatically recognized by Audials and offered for exporting your media in a redesigned user interface. This means that working with clouds has become a lot easier with Audials 2016.
  • Tag Editor Modernized:
  • For individually tagging files, the tried-and-tested editor has been revamped and given a clearer layout. There is also now a tag for album artist for naming additional artists who collaborated on the album as guests or friends.
  • Social Media News about the Artists from Facebook and Twitter:
  • Without using any additional browser or app, you can follow the news and information about your favorite stars directly in Audials and stay up to date about when their next album is coming out or next gig coming up.
  • Everyone Has a Viewpoint – With Audials You Have a Lot:
  • In addition to the viewing modes already provided, users also wanted a section for their music collection similar to the example set by Apple iTunes. We are happy to have granted this wish.
  • Improvements to Display and Visuals:
  • To ensure that you can enjoy your music and entertainment even better, we have made improvements to the display features and appearance year on year.
