Yes, size does matter!

Stomp started its life as an idea to be the ultimate video recompressor, and ended up something so much more powerful than that. YouTube, Google Video, iMovie… The list goes on and on. Video is a huge part of your online life. Ever tried to email a movie clip to Grandma? What, it’s 400mb for a short clip of your cat playing the piano? Well, that’s no fun at all (the file size, not the cat). Enter Stomp, where size does matter.

Stomp Features

Powerful Presets

Powerful Presets

Stomp takes in big videos and spits out small ones, and does it so easily, even Grandma can do it. Included are presets for popular devices (iPhone, iPod Touch, iPod Video, Apple TV and YouTube) make converting videos a snap.

Core Image Effects

Core Image Effects

Leverage the impressive Core Image effects built into OSX for your videos. Want to add a blur? Correct colors? Change a bit of gamma? Stomp makes it easy with simple to use effect GUIs — you can even stack multiple effects at once.

Batch Processing

Batch Processing

Batch processing takes Stomp to a whole new level. Feed Stomp a list of videos, choose your format and walk away. Stomps intelligent batch processor makes quickwork of even the longest conversions, all without any user intervention.

Super Simple Cropping

Dead-easy. Drag a box around your video and Stomp crops the movie. That’s it, no more searching for parameters or pixel width. You can also scale videos with a single click. Manipulating your videos has never been this easy.

Changelog

1.29.0(21 March 2013)(beta version)

  • Changes

    • Experimental speed-sauce. Compression up to on average 5x faster, more in some situations.
  • Fixes

    • Fixed the problem whereby Stomp would sometimes abort with an "Opps" message. Now starts faster as well.

1.28.0(16 July 2012)

  • Changes

    • Added presets for 3rd Gen Apple TV.
    • Added 'duration' as a field to the log viewer.
    • Reworked the client/server communication - removing the possibility of client/server communication deadlock bug.
    • Now built as an Intel only binary, with a minimum requirement of 10.6.6.
    • Videos are now added to the lower list asynchronously, making for a more 'snappy' UI experience.
  • Fixes

    • Fixed issue whereby model file couldn't be loaded (which prevented Stomp from loading).
    • As a result of better comms, Stomp now correctly supports "main thread only" compressors. This fixes a long standing bug whereby some compressors would fail with a "-2098" error and not work at all.
    • Fixed problem where queuing multiple jobs would often queue only one. "Batch" now works.

1.27.5(08 May 2012)

  • Fixes

    • Support for Gatekeeper under Max OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion)
    • Tidied up some error handling that could have caused a UI crash.

1.27.4(11 January 2012)

  • Fixes

    • Fixed issue where recent build was complaining under 10.5.8 of not being able to link against libcrypto. End result was a crash. Now solved.

1.27.3(07 December 2011)

  • Fixes

    • Fixed issue with i386 only build. Fixed and is back to a Universal (PPC as well) build now.

1.27.2(06 December 2011)

  • Fixes

    • Fixed issue with continuous updating.

1.27.1(31 October 2011)

  • Changes

    • Stomp now supports beta updates as well (now all products are consistent).
    • Changed version numbering scheme to be consistent with other products.
    • Verified under Lion.
  • Fixes

    • Fixed a problem whereby 29.97fps videos were not being encoded at the right rate.
    • Fixed issue that could cause a crash when removing all videos.

1.27(16 May 2011)

  • Changes

    • Updated to have minimum requirement of OS X 10.5 (Leopard).
    • Additional stability improvements.
    • We have reworked the underlying frameworks that make up the base of our products, due to these new frameworks / reorganizations - all localizations have been temporarily removed. We will be working with our localizers to being complete localizations in future releases. We didn't want to have half-baked localizations, and so decided it'd be better to remove them temporarily. Watch this space!

1.26(07 April 2011)

  • Changes

    • Last 10.4 compatible release. Later releases will be for 10.5+ only (read more)

Tiger and Leopard Support

Our current builds require at least Snow Leopard (10.6.6+) to run. For those of you still running Tiger or Leopard, we've kept some builds around for you that you might find useful. We can't support Tiger/Leopard any more (we just don't have the resources), but we'd like to make the build available in case it's useful.

Stomp v1.27.5 (Leopard+)


Stomp v1.26 (Tiger+)
