November 6th, 2006 (v1.12.1)
CHANGES MADE TO VERSION ONLY
-
Corrected a bug in the new audio detection, selection, and removal procedures in which some DTS or LPCM streams may not be properly kept even though selected..
|
November 4th, 2006 (v1.12.0)
CHANGES MADE TO VERSION ONLY
-
Made several improvements to the audio detection, selection, and removal procedures, making it less likely for output to be something other than expected.
-
Added routines to recognize segments for which using OPV might cause problems (such as ILVU) and force multiple pass encoding (instead of OPV) for those segments.
-
Corrected a calculation error that could, when unreferenced sectors exist, cause sizing miscalculations while using "Movie Only" mode.
-
Improved recognition and handling procedures for STILL frames and scene changes. Reduced the liklihood of unnecessary segment breaks. This could improve processing speed and reduce complexity.
-
Updated multiplexing algorithm to more robustly handle unusual streams. This is most likely to help in streams with exceptionally numerous scene changes.
-
Corrected a situation that could, under rare circumstances, result in a REBUILD buffer overflow errors.
-
Updated the full installer to include HC Encoder v0.19.1
-
Other minor and cosmetic changes.

October 20th, 2006 (v1.11.0)
CHANGES MADE TO VERSION ONLY
-
Several improvements in the authoring engine. This also
corrects a bug in which, under certain circumstances, it
was possible for the REBUILD phase to create runt VOBUs.
-
Added code to support drag & drop capability for adding
files to the batch processor. Please note that only .RBD
files will be accepted for dropping.
-
Added code to automatically recognize, adjust, and correct
for certain types of corrupt streams.
-
Updated the CCE Path detection code to verify the collected
path names and look for variations.
-
Added code to retry certain open statements when O/S calls
return before the operation is truly completed. This should
correct the occasional "Could not open ... file" errors that
seems happen when Kaspersky antivirus in in use on the host
system.
-
Corrected a condition in which the VOBU_1stREF_EA NavPack
setting could be set incorrectly. Note: This could have
happened only under very unusual circumstances.
-
Corrected a bug in which audio remapping may not correctly
work when used in conjunction with Movie_Only mode.
-
Fixed "Runtime Error 35600" that can sometimes occur when
selecting "Show Extras Only" from the Viewer/Editor menu.
-
Other minor and cosmetic changes.
|
October 6th, 2006 (v1.10.9)
CHANGES MADE TO VERSION ONLY
-
Fixed a bug that could cause erroneous "Corrupt Stream
Detected" message to occur during REBUILD.
-
Corrected an issue in which settings saved before a batch
process may not be restored correctly at batch end.
-
Corrected an oddity in which unreferenced cells may not be
included in the sizing calculation -- resulting in output
undersizing.
-
Fixed error in which bitrate values from use of the beta
Viewer/Editor are not being written correctly to the ECL
file when using CCE SP2.
-
Modified the default bitrate for segments that contain less
than 60 frames. Discs with huge numbers of small segments
could cause some oversizing.
-
Fixed a rare bug related to loading of Project files.
-
Further improved ReJig sizing algorithm. This should
prevent undersizing that was previously observed.
-
Adjusted code related to the processing of .ECL files.
-
Improved sizing algorithm so that it can properly account
for some oddly formatted discs.
-
Added code to more accurately predict sizing when working
in "Movie and Menus Only" mode.
-
Updated the installer to include HC Encoder v0.19.
-
Other minor and cosmetic changes.
|
September 26th, 2006 (v1.10.8)
CHANGES MADE TO VERSION ONLY
-
Corrected an error in the beta Editor/Viewer in which the
updates made by "Allocate Saved Space to Feature" may not
be saved when exiting.. resulting in undersizing.
-
Added code to reduce the likelihood that network layer
delays might cause timing errors.
-
Fixed an issue in which blanking a segment might result
erroneous bitrate values.
-
Corrected an bug in which a certain sequence of starting,
stopping, and resuming the ENCODE phase could skip one or
more segments and result in "Error in UpdateIFO" due to
missing M2V file(s).
-
Corrected code so that space related to unreferenced cells
that have been removed is returned to video. This could
have caused undersizing when backup up certain dics.
-
Added code to help alleviate "slow closing" that seems to
happen when using AutoQMatEnc on network drives and the
resulting "Cannot open ITEM.ECL" error.
-
Corrected the display of "Est Size (total)" in the beta
segment editor/viewer. Previous versions failed to account
for NAVPACKs in this value. The "DVD Output Size" display
was not affected and remains correct.
-
Other minor and cosmetic changes.
|
September 12th, 2006 (v1.10.7)
CHANGES MADE TO VERSION ONLY
-
Corrected a conversion error in the SP2 beta code. This
could cause several possible problems during PREPARE or
ENCODE.
-
Added a check that forces ConvertToYUY2() into AVS files
that are destined for use in ProCoder. In previous
versions deselecting this option could cause ProCoder to
stop functioning properly.
-
Corrected functioning of the "<" and ">" buttons in the
new beta Viewer/Editor. In some countries' numeric formats
the "," decimal separator wasn't being properly interpreted.
-
Corrected several minor slider positioning errors in the
beta Viewer/Editor.
-
Corrected a ReJig sizing error.
-
Corrected an error in the new beta SP2 support. The
maximum bitrate value was not being properly set. Note
that SP2 support continues to be considered "beta".
-
Corrected a bug in the ECL generation for the beta CCE SP2
feature. Previous video for the PAL system when using
SP2 could result in blank sections at the end of each video
segment.
-
Added settings to the SP2 ECL file that could prevent sizing
problems in the event that default values were incorrect.
-
Corrected ECL updating routines in the Segement Editor/Viewer
for SP2 files.
-
Other minor fixes/enhancements.

September 7th, 2006 (v1.10.6)
CHANGES MADE TO VERSION ONLY
-
Multiple instance encoding is now supported for
AutoQmatEnc as well as HC, QuEnc, and ProCoder. Note:
This requires AQE version 0.33 or greater. You can
download it from www.autoqmatenc.com.
-
Corrected an issue in which a non-zero value in a
RESERVED section of the DSI_GI table of a NAVPACK could
erroneously cause cells to be flagged as unreferenced.
This condition doesn't seem to occur in any commercial
discs -- but does appear in discs authored using "ULEAD
DVD MovieFactory".
-
Improved the sizing slider for the beta Viewer/Editor.
Added a "<" and ">" for small upward and downward sizing.
This should help get the value to exactly what you might
decide is perfect.
-
Made several processing improvements to the Viewer/Editor.
-
Added a menu item "Allocate Saved Space to Feature" to the beta Viewer/Editor. This will take any unused space
recovered through lowering bitrates, setting "Blank" etc.
and allocate it to the feature VTS.
-
Added a menu item "Reset to Default" to the beta Viewer/
Editor. This will remove all actions and reset to the
state before any blanking, etc. has taken place.
-
Added a "hidden" setting, "DISABLE_UNREFERENCED_REMOVAL".
This allows you to keep unreferenced cells and VTSs if for
some reason it becomes necessary. By default DVD-RB
removes any video/audio that, based upon the IFOs, is not
actually used on the DVD.
-
Fixed an inconsistency in the IFO's VTS_PTT_SRPT table
that could happen during movie-only encodes.
-
Added support for CCE SP2 (Trial). This feature uses
settings that are only moderately tested and should be
considered "Beta" -- it is not recommended that it be
used except for testing. In order to activate the feature
for testing you must add the line "SP2_Support=1" to the "[Options]" area of the REBUILDER.INI file.
-
Added VTS_MIN_SIZE and VTSM_MIN_SIZE checks in the
REBUILD module. In previous versions changing this
value between PREPARE and REBUILD (which is something
that could only be done manually and should never be
done) could result in "Runtime Error 6".
-
Added code to find default paths for CCE that will be
used if not overridden by those in the INI file.
-
Changed the shell call for execution of encoders in
a minimized state to not receive focus.
-
Improved the layer_break recognition routines to more
judiciously decide whether to change cell settings in
the IFO.
-
Other minor and cosmetic changes.

August 23th , 2006 (v1.10.5)
CHANGES MADE TO VERSION ONLY
-
Corrected an error introduced in Pan & Scan support that
could cause "...error getting MPG start code. [02:53:59]
00070 00006"
-
Corrected an issue in which writing directly to disc using
ImgBurn would create a "Pause" for display of image details
and required user intervention in order to continue.
|
August 22th , 2006 (v1.10.4)
CHANGES MADE TO VERSION ONLY
-
Added a new "ImgBurn Directly to Disc (No ISO)" option
under the "Mode" menu. When selected this option will, at
then end of DVD file creation, automatically burn to disc
using the newest version of ImgBurn. Note -- the option
is only enabled if you have ImgBurn v2.0.0.0 or greater
installed on your computer. No ISO file will be created
on your hard drive when using this option. ImgBurn is
highly recommended and can be downloaded at www.imgburn.com.
-
Modified the "Check Latest Version" option under the "Help"
menu. It now brings you to a "Download" page. This is
meant to make it easier for registered users to check for
and obtain the most recent version.
-
Corrected an error that prevented OPV mode from working
correctly for AutoQMatEnc. The result in previous versions
would have been multiple passes regardless of the setting.
-
Added code for checking and adjusting for Pan & Scan mode
in menu creation. This should correct the problem on
certain players where menu video appears horizontally
compressed and button placement appears off.
-
Added code to recognize and exclude unreferenced cells. This can improve picture quality by reallocated wasted
space to referenced cells. In addition it can prevent
processing confusion and audio missynchronization that
can occur as a result of insertion of unreferenced cells.
-
Updated the AutoQMatEnc Advanced settings dialog so it
supports enabling/disabling automatic bias. The bias now
affects the outcome (before AutoBias was always in effect).
-
Made prediction improvements in calculations for one pass
(Q and CQ) encoding. Note: Setting higher-than-standard
target sizes increases the likelihood of oversizing. This
new OPOV algorithm targets more closely.
-
Modified code to provide greater compatibility with newest
version (2.0.0.0) of ImgBurn.
-
Other minor/cosmetic changes.
|
August 11th , 2006 (v1.10.3)
CHANGES MADE TO VERSION ONLY
-
Added routines to recognize and ignore extraneous files in
the source directory -- including unreferenced VTSs that
serve no purpose except to occupy space.
-
Fixed "Runtime Error 6" that can occur during rebuild when
dealing with very small M2V files under specific conditions.
-
Corrected a problem in which, under specific circumstances,
ILVU segments for angles that are encoded with CCE may not
be encoding with necessary GOP restrictions.
-
Fixed an error in which pointers in the SML_AGLI table
could incorrectly set some block pointers to NEXT_ILVU + 1
rather then NEXT_ILVU. This could cause a momemtary audio
or video "jump" when switching angles.
-
Tweaked several ILVU settings to ensure strict compliance.
-
Added code to verify paths in INI. This will prevent the
occurance of Runtime Error '52' and Runtime Error '76' when
invalid paths are manually entered into the INI file.
-
Fixed a bug in which the completion status bar may not be
updated to reflect 100% at the end of PREPARE.
-
Updated the installer to include AVISYNTH v2.5.6. It will
NOT, however, overwrite your existing AVISYNTH installation
so it it recommended that if you want to upgrade to this
newer version -- you must first uninstall AVISYNTH using
the Windows Control Panel.
-
Added Rebuilder version information to AVS, INF, and LOG
files to make debugging easier.
-
Corrected a bug in which detection of the AutoQMatEnc path
may not have worked properly on some non-English systems.
-
Corrected an error in which "Runtime Error '52'" may occur
at startup on systems that use drives other than "C:" as
the root.
-
Fixed a command line incompatibility issue with early
versions of QuEnc.
-
Added an optional alternate output path for ISO creation.
By adding "ISO_OUTPUT=" (and a path) to the "[Paths]" area
of the REBUILDER.INI you can redirect output to a path or
drive other than the output directory.
-
Updated the installer to include the latest QuEnc v0.71.
-
Fixed other minor/cosmetic bugs.
|
July 3rd, 2006 (v1.10.2)
FEATURES ADDED TO PRO VERSION ONLY
-
Fixed a problem with the new editor in which automatic
blanking and slideshow that is executed when "Movie and
Menus" or "Move, Menus, and Slideshow Extras" was
not reallocating saved space to the feature. This only
happened when "Use Beta (test) Viewer/Editor" was selected. Extreme undersizing of output could occur.
-
Corrected a bug introduced in v1.10 that was related to
the new Viewer/Editor. This bug could result in "Corrupt
stream" message when using one of the "Movie and Menus" or "Move, Menus, and Slideshow Extras" modes was selected. It
could also cause these modes to fail.
-
Corrected an error in which clicking on the MENUS option
when no menus were being reencoded could cause a "Runtime
Error 13". (v1.10.1).
|
July 1st, 2006 (v1.10.1)
FEATURES ADDED TO PRO VERSION ONLY
-
Newly updated and improved Segment Editor/Viewer. You
can now adjust reduction percentages using a slider.
The new viewer also improves the viewability and ease of
use for editing and makes several other future features
possible. Note that the editor is BETA. It is meant to
be tested (only) in this version. For that reason you
must manually select "Use Beta (test) Viewer/Editor"
under the "Settings" menu to enable it.
-
Corrected an error in menu reencoding in which some
STILL menus might show momentarily (on certain
specific players) and then exit.
-
Changed defaults in the Viewer/Editor so that "Show
Extras Only" is no longer the default.
-
Fixed a bug in which extraction of ILVU sections when
a source requires no encoding might receive "corrupt"
source warnings and report other unpredictable errors.
-
Corrected an error in which the AutoQMatEnc version
many not be collected when the path is obtained from
the INI file.
-
Removed the "Special Error Processing" option. It no
longer serves a purpose.
-
Corrected an error in which some small VTSs may not be
blanked or stilled when selecting "Movie and Menu Only"
or "Movie, Menus, and Slideshow Extras".
-
Fixed a bug in which the value set into vobu_se_e_ptm
could be incorrectly calculated and might possibly
result in odd menu behavior on some players.
-
Corrected a bug in which the number of passes selection
in the AutoQMatEnc advanced screen was disabled when CCE
Basic was checked.
-
Improved the method for inserting NAVPACKs related to
STILL processing.
-
Added a horizontal scroll bar to filter editor so long
filters are kept on one line during editing.
-
Added code to prevent a very rare cell transition timing
anomaly that can occur when the source contains an
irregularity.
-
Updated QuEnc version included in the installer to v0.70
-
Other minor bug and cosmetic fixes.
