Hey,

I've released mkvtoolnix v2.8.0. This release contains a lot of smaller
and larger bug fixes and a new translation to simplified Chinese.

Here are the usual links...

All binaries that I provide myself have been built and uploaded already.

Here's the full ChangeLog since release 2.7.0:

------------------------------------------------------------
2009-05-09  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>

	* Released v2.8.0.

2009-05-07  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>

	* all: Added a translation to Chinese (simplified) by Dean
	Lee (see AUTHORS).

	* mkvmerge: enhancement: Added support for handling AC3 audio in
	MP4 files with the FourCC "sac3" (as created by e.g. Nero Recode
	v3/4). Fix for bug 384.

	* mkvmerge, mmg: enhancement: Made mmg's "FPS" input field
	available for all video tracks. mkvmerge's corresponding option
	"--default-duration" now not only modifies the track header field
	but affects the frame timecodes as well.

2009-05-06  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>

	* mkvmerge: bug fix: The VobSub reader was dropping the very last
	MPEG packet possibly resulting in the very last subtitle entry
	being garbled or discarded completely. Patch by Todd Schmuland.

2009-05-03  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>

	* mmg: enhancement: Added "60000/1001" as a pre-defined option to
	the "FPS" drop-down box.

2009-04-29  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>

	* mmg (header editor): bug fix: The header editor controls on the
	right stopped responding after the second file had been loaded or
	the "reload file" feature had been used. Fix for bug 372.

2009-04-27  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>
	* mmg: new feature: Added an option for clearing all inputs after
	a successful muxing run.

2009-04-25  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>
	* mkvmerge: bug fix: Made the AAC detection code stricter in what
	it accepts. This results in fewer mis-detections. Fix for bugs 373
	and 374.

2009-04-16  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>

	* mkvmerge: bug fix: Splitting without the option "--engage
	no_simpleblocks" resulted in broken files: all frames were marked
	as B frames. Fix for bug 371.

	* mkvinfo: bug fix: Timecodes of SimpleBlock elements that were
	output formatted in summary mode were too small by a factor of
	1000000.

2009-04-15  Moritz Bunkus  <moritz at bunkus.org>

	* mkvmerge: bug fix: The duration of subtitle frames was
	overwritten with the difference between the next frame's timecode
	and the current frame's timecode if a timecode file was used for
	that track. Fix for bug 286.

	* mmg: bug fix: Removed the option "always use simple blocks" from
	the preferences dialog as this option was already removed from
	mkvmerge. Fix for bug 370.
------------------------------------------------------------

Have fun.
