Subject: [Matroska-users] mkvtoolnix 2.2.0 released

Hello users and package maintainers,

I've released a new version of MKVToolNix, v2.2.0. It contains major bug
fixes (a lot of crashes with should be gone) and a couple of new features.

Here are the usual links to the most interesting downloads:

The source code:
http://www.bunkus.org/videotools/mkvtoolnix/sources/mkvtoolnix-2.2.0.tar.bz2

The binaries for Windows 2000, XP or newer:
http://www.bunkus.org/videotools/mkvtoolnix/win32/mkvtoolnix-unicode-2.1.0-s
etup.exe

The program home page:
http://www.bunkus.org/videotools/mkvtoolnix/index.html

Binaries for a couple of Linux distributions are available from the home
page. The users of Debian and Ubuntu that use my Apt repositories should
note that I've renamed my package to match the official package names in
Debian and Ubuntu. You can get this release of MKVToolNix with "apt-get
install mkvtoolnix mkvtoolnix-gui".

As always I'll finish with the ChangeLog between the previous release 2.1.0
and this release.

Have fun :)

Regards,
Mosu

	* Released v2.2.0.

2008-02-29  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>

	* mkvmerge: new feature: Added support for handling AC3 in WAV in
	ACM mode.

2008-02-28  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>

	* mkvmerge: new feature: Added support for reading AC3 from
	QuickTime/MP4 files. Fix for bug 254.

2008-02-27  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>

	* mkvmerge: new feature: Added support for handling AC3 in WAV in
	IEC 61937 compatible streams (aka SPDIF mode).

	* mkvmerge: new feature: Added support for WAV files with multiple
	data chunks.

	* mkvmerge: bug fix: Fixed a cause for the error message "no data
	chunk found" by fixing the skipping of 'fmt ' chunks.

2008-02-23  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>

	* mkvmerge: new feature: Added support for AAC-in-AVI with CodecID
	0x706d as created by mencoder. Fix for bug 266.

2008-02-20  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>

	* mkvmerge: bug fix: Rewrote the OGM reader code. Another part of
	a fix for bug 267.

2007-12-31  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>

	* mkvmerge: bug fix: Rewrote the timecode application
	code. Additionally force the "previous cluster timecodes" that
	libmatroska uses to the current timecode. This seems to get rid of
	libmatroska's assertions about the local timecode being to
	small/big to fit into an int16. It also seems to get rid of some
	of mkvmerge's errors about the packet queue not being empty, and
	it fixes a couple of crashes with file splitting.

2007-12-22  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>

	* mkvmerge: bug fix: OGM files with non-Theora video tracks caused
	mkvmerge to fail since 2.1.0, or the resulting file was
	unplayable. Fix for bug 267.

2007-10-11  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>

	* mkvmerge: bug fix: Accept other Theora header versions than
	3.2.0 as long as the major version is 3 and the minor 2. Fix for
	bug 262.

2007-09-02  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>

	* mkvmerge: bug fix: MPEG PS reader: Fixed the resyncing mechanism
	during normal reads. Another fix for bug 259.

	* mkvmerge: bug fix: MPEG PS reader: mkvmerge tries to resync to
	the next MPEG start code in case of error during stream
	detection. Fix for bug 259.

2007-08-31  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>

	* mkvmerge: SVQ1 video tracks read from QuickTime files are output
	as V_MS/VFW/FOURCC tracks and not as V_QUICKTIME tracks. Fix for
	bug 257.

2007-08-30  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>

	* avilib: bug fix: Fixed a segmentation fault if reading the first
	part of an index failed but a second/other index part is
	present. Fix for bug 256.

2007-08-19  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>

	* mkvmerge: enhancement: SRT files that contain coordinates in the
	timecode line are supported. The coordinates are discarded
	automatically (as S_TEXT/SRT doesn't support them), and a warning
	is shown.
