1.0.7 b4 NOT SVCD compatible

[Vader]

Hi ye all, just thought i'd tell you that a litte (MAJOR) bug has found it's way into the code somehow. Since version 1.0.7 came out my SVCD's are no longer SVCD compatible, ie. they don't play on my Skyworth SV-777 SVCD player anymore. I have tried with both CCE and Tmpeg. Here is the log from the last film I tried.

But I didn't get any answer then.

works fine for me, just like past versions. I burn with CDRDAO.

[markrb]

How can you say no answer? I counted 12 replies.
Did you even try what they said to do?
Did you report back what you did and if it did or didn't work?
How can anyone help you if you don't help them help you?
I didn't see one response from you in that thread.
12 people post things to try and you didn't even reply once saying you tried it and it didn't work.
I have used every method they posted to try except I refuse to use Nero to burn my SVCD's and they all worked for me on three different DVD players.

I don't want to be rude, but how can a burning app. possibly burn a .bin file in different ways? It writes bit for bit, either it does it or it does not. It sounds rather amazing if NERO for instance would add a few bit's here and there just because it wants to, thus resulting in unsuable written CD's. If this is the case, please forgive me.
I have used the same version of NERO since DVD2SVCD 1.0.2 and have had no problems until version 1.0.7.
However, I might be wrong, and if I am, I will happily admit it, I have been known to be wrong before.
Let's keep focused on video converitng, and not quarreling.
Thanks for a great job everyone who are involved in the world of DVD2SVCD.
