Professional Edition Version 1.25.0

Below is a summary of the changes/updates associated with this version (Pro release):
Code:
May 2nd, 2007 (v1.25.0)
CHANGES MADE TO PRO VERSION
- Added additional code to the OPV single pass prediction 
  routines to increase sizing accuracy.  This should reduce 
  the probability of over/undersizing in OPV.

- Added two more "hidden" options to REBUILDER.INI for
  adjusting OPV actions related to HC encoding.  The values
  "HC_CQ_BFACTOR=" and "HC_CQ_PFACTOR=" allow you to set
  the related HC settings for one pass VBR encoding.  More
  information can be obtained in the HC documentation.

- Updated the "Close DVD-RB at REBUILD Completion" option
  in the MODE menu.  It is now persistent and the setting
  will carry-over between sessions.

- Added a popup window to show status when DVD-RB scans
  at startup or after source selection.  This is necessary
  to show progress when encountering an exceptionally large 
  VIDEO_TS.VOB.

- Corrected an issue in which, under certain circumstances,
  when colorimetry changes between two segements, the flag
  ("c:") in the filter editor might get incorrectly tripped.

- Corrected a bug in which under very rare circumstances the
  last GOP of a cell could be flagged with incorrect
  colorimetry information.

- Updated the Installer to include ECLPRO v1.00 Final, which
  fixes some "exit" related issues.

- Modified colorimetry interpretation so that receiving a
  "2" (unspecified) as the matrix_coefficient would default 
  to actions for Rec.709.

- Added code to clean up the temporary encoder directories
  that are created for muliple encoder processes.

- Updated OPV processing to allow an alternate matrix.  Now
  OPV will use the specified as "Main Feature Matrix."  In
  OPV the matrix will not change based upon bitrate -- as
  it is necessary for predictions to be made using a single
  matrix and quantizer/Q value.

- Added HC v0.21 to the standard installation package.  This
  corrects a rare "hang" issue and can now encode slightly
  faster in BEST mode.  Also added support for the new 
  luminance gain (LUMGAIN) parameter.  You can now set
  the value using "HC_LUMGAIN=" in the REBUILDER.INI file.

- Other minor and cosmetic changes.
