Another great update from jdobbs of this superb prog! :t_up:




Version 0.46

Below are a summary of the changes/updates associated with this version:

- Added support for Button-Over-Video. Imbedded menus and user actions should now work correctly. This also sets the stage for possible menu size reductions.

- Found and fixed Runtime Error '9' that occured during REBUILD phase. This should end most if not all of the '9' errors. It will be especially noticable in removing them in Half-D1/Half-Bitrate extra selections.

- Fixed a source of Runtime Error '9' in PREPARE phase.

- Found a situation in which bad MPEG editing in the original DVD (in which trailing B frames were deleted leaving an out of temporal sequence I or P frame) could cause error #0006 in REBUILD during transcoding (using ReJig). A workaround was implemented in which the temporal sequence was adjusted.

- Changed code so the "PREPARE" button doesn't change to "Process" after running it the first time. It wasn't supposed to.

- Made a modification to the monitoring of CCE as it is running in an attempt to get apply less processor time to DVD-RB when running on multithreaded processors. On my Athlon 2400+ processor it has dropped to consistently less than 1% processor usage for DVD-RB while CCE is running.

- Reset the DVD Compliant flag to "off" in the ECL files to bypass a new "feature" associated with CCE's 2.69 version. If it is set "on" CCE tries to outsmart you and add frames to a 23.976fps source.

0.47 out now- well yesterday but didn't notice it

Wierd Jdobbs didn't change the thread title to reflect the new release (well yet anyway)


Version 0.47

Below are a summary of the changes/updates associated with this version:

- Updated code so subtitle support is more properly implemented. This should fix most (if not all) of the problems associated with non-displaying subtitles.

- Again tweaked the monitoring of CCE to try and improve performance on multi-threading processors. The parameters posted with 0.46 were too conservative.

- Added automatic addition of the -interlaced or -nointerlaced command line option to QuEnc. The determination is based upon data found in DVD-RB's PREPARE phase.

- Added an option under the AVS advanced menu setting MPEG2SOURCE("source",idct=7) as a possible default.

- Fixed an error that caused incorrect calculation when Half-D1/Half Size option is selected. This generally resulted in undersized output.

- Fixed an error in which the "TargetSectors=" INI command was not being used to establish a default when targets were not established for the selected encoder.

- Other minor corrections and optimizations were made.

Lazaa's link to the current latest version works fine though. firefox users may have to clear their cache though otherwise the previous version you downloaded might be the one you get

Cheers nimbles, I find using right click and save as in Firefox works everytime for those that use it for this d/l. :)

Ummm... was just browsing through the RB forum and a member has set up a site dedicated to rb, so tutorials, all relevant downloads can be got from one site

here's the site http://www.dvd-rb.page.vu/

tutorials on CDR DVD base and Doom9 are probably better at the moment but hopefully the site will be kept uptodate tutorials and download wise

RB's doom9 forum is pretty manic at the moment

Another sneaky update for RB- its now on 0.48


Version 0.48

Below are a summary of the changes/updates associated with this version:

- Corrected an error related to fast forwarding and rewinding through chapter points. The first entry in any Cell's first DSI was not correctly flagging time offsets that had no prior VOBU. My thanks to Sir Didymus for finding and pointing out this error. Extraordinary beta testing!

- Added support for the "-maxbitrate" option to all QUEnc encode command lines. The value is set to the DVD-RB default of "9000" unless changed via the "max_bitrate=" INI option. This might fix some of the stuttering errors seen when using QuEnc.

- Enabled checking that disallows mismatching of modes between the PREPARE and ENCODE phases.

- Fixed an error in which "IDCT7" was not being properly applied when selected. Thanks to djan for discovering this error.

Which i'd known before i started backing up Heat :rolleyes:

Think I'll wail til this proggy is wrapped up a little more, as I have yet to use any version that doesn't crash at some point.
