BD3D2MK3D v0.88

As promised, it is now possible to convert any audio stream to AAC.

I have also verified the conversion when using a 3D-MKV file created by MakeMKV as input, and unfortunately I have had to prohibit to use the E-AC3/DD+ streams with 4 channels only. They are bad conversion by MakeMKV, totally unusable. Luckily, the E-AC3 format is rarely used on the commercial BDs, but if you have a movie with DD+ streams, you will have to select the AC3 core in the MakeMKV GUI. When that huge bug will be fixed in MakeMKV, BD3D2MK3D should accept the E-AC3 tracks (with 7.1 channels) without problem.

Please note that when using a 3D MKV as input, it is not possible to convert or extract the core of the TrueHD audio tracks, because the THD stream is stored "alone", without a 5.1 pseudo-core in the MKV. (It's a Matroska requirement.) Therefore, there is nothing to extract. It is not possible either to convert the THD track to AC3, simply because it doesn't make much sense to convert the THD track when the AC3 track is available without conversion in the original BD. If you want to keep the AC3 track, you have to select it in the MakeMKV GUI. (Of course, you can also convert the THD track manually with the Tool menu or with eac3to, but that's another story.)

There are also two important bugs fixed in the tool to convert a SRT subtitle file to ASS 3D.

v0.88 (April 16, 2016)
- When the option to convert the audio streams to AAC is selected in tab 2, all audio tracks are now converted, instead of only the DTS and LPCM tracks.
- The extension .dtshdma for the demuxed DTS-HD-MA tracks was wrong. It is now .dtsma as it should for eac3to.
- The option to keep only the core of HD audio tracks in tab 2 is now removed when a 3D-MKV created by MakeMKV is the source.
- It is not possible any more to use the bad and useless E-AC3 (DD+) audio tracks created by MakeMKV (with only 4 channels)
- The labels of the DTS-HD/MA audio tracks in the final MKV show now the number of channels for the HD and the core (like 7.1/5.1)
- The labels of the audio tracks converted to AAC show now also the Quality value that has been used to do the conversion.
- Small cosmetic changes.
- Bug fix in Convert SRT to ASS 3D: The first subtitle was sometimes missing when the input file is encoded in UTF-8/16.
- Bug fix in Convert SRT to ASS 3D: The 2-lines subtitles were not properly converted as one long line with \N.
- Bug fix: Some tools crached when trying to open a file or folder if no BD or MKV was loaded first.
- Updated x264 to the latest version (0.148.2692)
