x264 for BD encoding - does it work now?
I've been pouring over the forums and it seems like there's been quite a bit of progress lately in adding BD compliance to x264.
From what I can gather, a compliant stream needs both --slices:4 (in the svn since early September) and --hal-nrd (patch available for some time, being worked into the SVN now). Is this accurate?
If so, has anyone released a binary with both of these features activated? Have the results been tested for replication? (BD is a bit of a mess, since authoring successfully doesn't necessarily mean it'll replicate OK.)
Any assistance would be really helpful. If replication hasn't been tested yet, I can get some test encodes submitted to a plant to find out.
