DVD2AVI & VFAPI Plug-In 1.0 2001-01-13

• replace the original SSE/3D Now!/Reference iDCT with Miha's 64-bit Floating Point/Reference iDCT
• reduce display overhead of Statistics Window and append a bitrate monitor
• I-frame search speed up

• change 'Preserve FILM' to 'Forced FILM' based on RFF detection and frame decimation/duplication
• NTSC or PAL + Forced FILM ON -> garbage
• FILM + Forced FILM ON -> synchronous 23.976fps FILM
• HYBRID + Forced FILM ON -> synchronous 23.976fps semi-FILM
• configuration auto-save
• sequential files auto-append (ex. VTS_01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VOB, VTS_01_3.VOB...)
• D2V structure changed
  This version is incompatible with obsolete D2Vs.

• Miha's newest IEEE-1180 Reference iDCT, speed up about 50%.
• fix the bug of sequential files auto-append
• fix the bug of VFAPI control
  Now TMPGEnc won't freeze, though the priority of DVD2AVI.VFP is higher than others.
• fix the bug of abnormal ending with VFAPI
• D2V structure changed
  This version is incompatible with obsolete D2Vs.

• revised parsing code, a bit faster and stabler
• stick the position of Statistics Window (RarUty-like)
• support SVCD decoding
• support YUV 4:2:2 MPEG-2 decoding
• fix the bug of abnormal ending with AC3 decoding
• revive multi-channel demux

• append 'Luminance Filter'
• append 'Save BMP' for quality verification, works on 'RGB Color Space' only
• implement 'Dolby Surround Downmix' (for 3/2, 2/2, 3/1, 2/1)
• D2V structure changed
  This version is incompatible with obsolete D2Vs.
• abandon 'YV12 Color Space', almost useless

• support file drag & drop
• modifications and bug fixes of user interface and I-frame locating
• support multiple WAV processing

• support 'Swap Field Order'
• D2V structure changed
  This version is incompatible with obsolete D2Vs.

• VFAPI decoding of FILM/HYBRID w/o Forced FILM speeds up a little
• free the GOP cache of VFAPI decoding when reading sequentially
• fix the DD 2/0 rematrixing bug of AC-3 decoder

• performance tuned up a little by reorganization of MMX routines
• fix the bug of incorrect YUV->RGB TV Scale conversion
• fix the potential bug of AC-3 decoder, possible burst noise resulting from integer overflow
• fix the bug of unnecessary normalization
• append 7KHz low-pass filter for rear channels of Dolby Surround Downmix
• revise dithering routine of AC-3 decoder
• implement AC-3 Dynamic Range Control, abandon Dynamic Normalization

• replace the original 32-bit MMX iDCT with Peter Gubanov's 32-bit MMX & SSE MMX iDCT
• remove redundant field copy of AVI output
• implement clipping filter
• append LFE (0.1KHz) channel to DD 5.1 decoding
• append Pre-Scale Decision for Dolby Digital decoding
• fix the final bug of DD 2/0 decoding which results in reverberation
• fix the bug of corrupt YUY2 Overlay for some display cards
• D2V structure changed
  This version is incompatible with obsolete D2Vs.

• revised demux routine to cope with non-2048bytes aligned MPEG-2
• AC-3 decoding speeds up a little by table-lookup mantissa
• D2V structure changed
  This version is incompatible with obsolete D2Vs.
