if you go to the official webpage, www.dvd2svcd.org
and go to the readme file, you will see that theres an updated none released version update log
HISTORY:
XX oct 2002 version 1.1.0 build 1 (not released)
- Bug fix: I-Author muxer would repeatedly start over and over again if any errors happen (like the infamous bitrate error)
- Bug fix: In som rare cases DTS audio could be selected as the audio stream
- Bug fix: Finally I succeded in fixing the rare subtitle bug that would leave the subtitles on screen util the next subtitle was shown. Thanks to Tito for twisting my arm.
- Enhancement: It is now possible adjust TMPGEnc's VBV Buffer Size.
- Enhancement: dvd2svcd is now using Auth.dll (dvd authentication) internally thanks to TheWEF :)
- Enhancement: Added support for AC3 Surround2 downmixing
- New Feature: Added CCE RoBa Multipass support (a compromise between Robshot and Bach's method)
- New Feature: Added support for Trbarrys Unfilter avs plugin
- Enhancement: Using Nic's AuthDVD.DLL for authenticating the DVD. It seems to be far more stable than Nautilus' (Although I keep Nautilus as a backup authenticator)
- Bugfix: '' is not a floating point value, which could happen after encoding with CCE has been fixed.
- Bugfix: When using "New Frame" in the preview dvd2svcd could end with an Access Violation Error
- New Feature: VCD Chapters (using vcxbuilder) is now supported.
- Enhancement: Now YOU can put any AVIsynth commands into the avisynth script before starting the conversion at all. That means that you can add you favorite filters (Unfilter, MSSmooth, Sharpen and so on). Please look in the AVISYNTH section of this document (look in the bottom).
- Enhancement: When using WinSubMux it will now multiplex all subtitle streams in one go.
- Bug fix: The subtitles could sometimes still be in "white boxes" I hope I have fixed this for the last time ;) Thanks to M1ckey M0use for providing some test data :)
- Enhancement: If you select Automatic Shutdown and make a "Rip Only" then it'll add -shutdown instead of -exit in the batch file.
- New Feature: Finally, you can now decide exactly where you want the cut to be, or you can use it to remove unwanted credits or just to make samples. How cool is that :)
- Bug Fix: Well, it seems that from time to time the SVCD/CVD subtitles could be out of sync on second and third CD. Thsi is due to the fact that bbMPEG soes not cut at the exact second I tell it to (yeah I know, I just thought). Anyway, I hhave fixed it by comparing the encode audio file and the audio stream in the muxed file, thereby I can find the exact cut and in all the tests I've done they have been in perfect sync and actually it seems that CD 1 is in better sync too :)
I saw a link in the robshot method thread, where dvd2svcd posted a link to the beta, but im wondering if this includes the fixes for october also, but i dont think it does because the rar dates back in july, anyways dvd2svcd think you can share the latest build and let us have a run with it?
