Professional Edition Version 1.22

Below is a summary of the changes/updates associated with this version (Pro release):
Code:
February 24th, 2007 (v1.22)
CHANGES MADE TO PRO VERSION
- Improved program robustness in several areas, it now
  recognizes more oddities in the source and compensates
  to reduce likelihood of output glitches.

- Added detection and auto configuration for multiple
  core processing.  Now the "Multiple Encoder Processes"
  setting is automatically set to match the number of
  processors at startup or when clicking on the "Multiple
  Encoder Processes" option.  If you only have one 
  processor and select the option, DVD-RB will assume a 
  "fast" system and will set the process count to 2. You 
  can, however, manually override the setting by changing 
  the "Encode_Processes=" parameter in REBUILDER.INI (for 
  instance if you want to use only 2 processors for 
  encoding on a 4 processor system).

- Made the new style editor the default.

- Updated code to make DVD-RB less likely to run into
  security issue when running under Windows Vista.

- Added an "Auto" setting to the MOBILE settings dialog
  for "GOP Size" -- this will let FFMPEG decide the size.

- Added parameters to hold constant Q when used with H264
  for MOBILE encoding.  The parameter wasn't being honored 
  with previous versins.  Constant Q is enabled by 
  entering a video bitrate of less than 32 (interpreted to 
  be a Q value).

- Corrected "Runtime Error 461" that can occur when
  attempting to drag entries in the "Batch" list box.

- Changed the way in which rate control parameters are
  passed to FFMPEG when doing MOBILE encoding.

- Corrected "Error attempting to close DVD" that occured
  when MOBILE encoding attempted on a source that wasn't
  PREPARED with MOBILE options.

- Faster HC encoding speed (especially SSE2 supporting
  processors).  Updated the installer to include HC 
  Encoder v0.20

- Improved rate control on QuEnc.  Updated the installer 
  to include QuEnc v0.72

- Other minor and cosmetic changes.
