Non-pre scenecut is going away. Adjust your GUIs/frontends accordingly.

(And --scenecut 0 will now disable scenecut, as will --no-scenecut.)

I'm probably not the only one curious about this, what prompts the change in core? is it when the options change?

I'm probably not the only one curious about this, what prompts the change in core? is it when the options change?Core API version number is incremented whenever ABI or API compatibility is broken. This means new entries in x264.h, renamed entries in x264.h, or removed entries in x264.h.

Thanks for the info will probably release a new sx264 Version tomorrow.
