[Matroska-devel] libEBML 1.3.0 and libMatroska 1.4.0 released

[Moritz Bunkus]

Hey,

we've released new versions of both libraries. They can be downloaded
from http://dl.matroska.org/ ; direct download links:

http://dl.matroska.org/downloads/libebml/libebml-1.3.0.tar.bz2
http://dl.matroska.org/downloads/libmatroska/libmatroska-1.4.0.tar.bz2

Note that neither library is binary compatible to its predecessors.

libEBML changes include several new API functions like
GetValue()/SetValue(), new constructors, and a couple of bug fixes
like calculating dates with 64bit integers preventing overflows in
certain situations.

libMatroska has received several new elements that were added to the
Matroska specifications: CueDuration, CueRelativePosition,
ChapterStringUID, VideoAlphaMode and DefaultDecodedFieldDuration

For both packages the build files for Debian packages have been
removed (the whole "debian" sub-directory). They were out of date and
Debian-based distributions already provide their own versions of the
files in question.

Note that I don't provide binary packages of those libraries on
www.bunkus.org anymore as both libraries have been part of the major
distributions for quite some time now.

Kind regards,
mosu
