I need to say sorry!

I need to say sorry!

There were big problems with the last update. I set the version before live and analyse the problems.

Greetings

Little fixes for today

Today you get a small update. Thanks for your feedback for the bulk upload creation!

We fixed a bug that caused an overwriting of the file pathes over the different templates. Further more we tried to speed up the upload process and hope the upload rate is more stable now.

Have a nice weekend

Fixing upload problems + cool new features

Finally we got it done. The problems with uploading should be solved. After this long periode of silence I wanted to bring also cool new features to you.

So. Have a look, what's new.

Bulk creation of upload entries
I got an email of an user, who wrote, that it would be a nice thing, if you can add multiple files to a template. So, let's make the speed test:



Bulk editing of videos
I started to implement bulk editing of videos. Now you are able to delete multiple videos at once. More options will come.



I hope you like the new stuff! Let me know your ideas for new features.

Have a nice sunday

Why was it so silent?

In the last couple of weeks it was very silent about batch. But why?

It all began when some testers reported some super weird bugs. Entries in their queue weren't uploaded correctly to YouTube. Entries get lost and all in all it was a big mess. We analyzed their setup and the way how they are using batch. I tried to find the bugs in the code. I made build after build but nothing worked, as we aspected it. Sure. I found bugs, corrected them, but the main issues I wasn't able to fix.

Now, after more than two weeks of investigation we got it. We found the issues they have and maybe also some of you guys has.

In the moment we do the final testing and I promise that as fast as I can, I will publish a new update to solve your problems you might have.

Have a nice week
Benjamin

batch is ready to take off!

It was a long way, but we finally did it! batch (the former YouTube Center) is ready to be the most powerful YouTube uploading software on planet. Maybe of the whole galaxy!

We made tons of corrections and created new stuff for you in the last two months. So here we go!

Whats new?


The new UI

We created a complete new interface which helps you doing things much faster than ever.



We reworked the whole design to make it more beautiful and handy.
We brought the queue to the right side, so you can access it from every part of the software. You can show or hide the queue, as you like. This will help you to get a fast overview of your current uploads.

We brought in new modal windows, which keeps the UI more clean and focused.



We changed to concept of using the software to a more channel-driven way. Your channel rules everything so you can focus yourself more on what you want to do. For switching fast between your channels, we build a handy channel-switcher.



New functions

If you are new to batch, you might have some questions, so we created a new help center, in which hopefully all your questions will be answered.

We reworked the logic of the queue completely, so entries will be better sorted and uploaded in the right order. But if you start an upload manually it gets a higher priority and will be uploaded first.
We brought in a feature which blocks the power saving mode while batch is uploading.

If you work with more than one channel you are now able to share uploads between your channels. There is also a new share button in the queue entries. This will copy the sharelink of your uploading video to the clipboard.

We reworked the search logic on YouTube. This will bring much better search results.

We changed the way of how you can reply to your comments. It is much simplier and more intuitiv than before.



What we fixed


There are tons of corrections, we've made. Here a small uncomplete list of fixes and corrections.
  • We added missing translations
  • We fixed an authentification bug
  • There was a bug which let batch upload videos twice
  • The length of the tags was calculated wrong
  • The executing of tasks was broken
  • The upload speed reset after every new start of the software
  • We increased the maximum upload speed to 1000 MBit/s
  • In some cases the templates weren't saved proper
  • In some cases when your PC lost connection, the upload was aborted. Now batch just waits for a reconnection
  • Many, many more...


We hope you have fun with our new batch.

Best regards
Benjamin
