DVDStyler Version History
DVDStyler has been in development since its first release on December 6, 2003, written by Alex Thüring and released as free software under the GPLv2 license. Two version lines matter today: the stable 3.2.1 release and the 3.3 Beta development line. This page sticks to what the project’s own files and records show — dates, platforms and positioning — rather than inventing per-version feature lists the project never published.
Current stable: 3.2.1
| Version | Date | Platforms | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3.2.1 (stable) | November 2, 2021 | Windows 64-bit, Windows 32-bit, macOS (Intel DMG), source | The recommended release. The Mac disk image was repackaged as 3.2.1_1 in 2023; the program version is unchanged. |
Checksums and download buttons for every 3.2.1 file are on the download page, the Windows download page and the Mac download page.
Development line: 3.3 Beta
| Version | Date | Platforms | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3.3b4 (Beta) | August 6, 2024 | Windows 64-bit, source | Latest development build. Still a Beta — SourceForge showing it as the default download does not make it a stable release. |
| 3.3b3 (Beta) | — | Windows 64-bit, macOS DMG, source | The last Beta with a Mac build (DVDStyler-3.3b3_1-MacOSX.dmg). |
| 3.3b1–b2 (Beta) | — | Windows 32-bit only | The 3.3 development line started as 32-bit Windows builds before widening in b3. |
Not sure which line you want? Our 3.2.1 vs 3.3b4 comparison gives a direct answer: most people should install 3.2.1.
An honest note about the 2.8 era
Version history should include the uncomfortable parts. The Windows installers of DVDStyler 2.8.0 and 2.8.1, from the mid-2010s, were reported to bundle adware with a hidden opt-out, a fact recorded in the project’s Wikipedia entry; later versions have no such reports. That history is exactly why this site publishes checksums for the current files and links to the project’s official SourceForge distribution — read Is DVDStyler safe? for the full picture.
Earlier history
DVDStyler’s first release dates to December 6, 2003, and the project has been continuously hosted on SourceForge since then, growing from a basic authoring tool into the menu-driven program described on our home page: 20+ menu templates, a vector-based (SVG) menu designer, photo slideshows, multiple subtitle and audio tracks, and direct burning. Rather than a fabricated changelog for two decades of releases, we point you to the project’s own files on SourceForge, which remain the authoritative record.
