Zojuist heeft versie 0.86a van DVD ReBuilder het levenslicht gezien. Dit programma, waarmee backups van dvd's kunnen worden gemaakt, is ontstaan omdat de programmeur de kwaliteit van bestaande one-click oplossingen te laag vond en de methoden die gebruik maakten van bijvoorbeeld Cinemacraft Encoder of TMPEGENC te complex. Het changelog van deze release ziet als volgt uit:
The changes made to this release are outlined below:[break]
- Added a fix that significantly increased the point at which the "Buffer Overflow 0003" or the "Buffer Overflow 0004" is reached. While this error is normally a result of a corrupted source, I have found at least one example in which the buffer overflowed on a legitimate source. This will correct that.
- Again changed the method of encoding for very small segments. Some reports of CCE CRC errors make it necessary to create a "workaround". Now all segments of less than 60 frames are encoded using one pass VBR in CCE SP versions. Single frames encoded with CCE Basic are done in CBR. The Pro version still retains STILLS intact.
- Changed the setting for ProCoder output so the .ECL file (using ECLPro) has "seq_endcode=1" for all encodes. Since DVD-RB now removes endcodes automatically this save time by not requiring ProCoder to do so. Thanks to Robot1.
- Modified the way DVD-RB calls web pages so it uses the default browser (it was making a call to "Explorer" before -- which always called Internet Explorer. Thanks again to Robot1.
- Added a "Contents" option to the Help Menu. This will open the default file DVD-RBHELP.CHM in the DVD-RB home direcotry if it exists.
- Corrected an error in which "Reduce by 50%" was not being read properly from .RBD files so it was not being set properly in batch encodes. (Freeware only)
