| + | This is mostly just bringing the software versions up to date. Target client players now include PS4's Media Player, Plex and continues support for DLNA. Dropping testing on USB completely, as the chances of using it drift farther away. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The main target of this one is to do testing with Plex media server as well, so this is a testing spec at the moment. Plex has seeking issues at times, and also crashes on certain videos. Some other features that are going to go into this spec is packing SRT subtitles, adding poster art, and including a lot more metadata about the DVD source and its season, episode numbers, etc. | ||

| + | Everything here is just a release update to the latest software. mkvtoolnix, however, has some specific things in it that I find interesting that I could use in the future: | ||
| + | 7.3.0 can read teletext straight from an MPEG-2 transport stream and convert it directly to an SRT and it has better handling of broken MPEG-2 transport streams. 7.4.0 more teletext fixes. 7.5.0 has more bug fixes related to MPEG transport streams. 7.7.0 has lots of changes to reading AC3 and Blu-ray audio codecs. 7.8.0 has new features for detecting DTS streams. 7.9.0 lots more added features and bug fixes for reading Dolby Digital, DTS, DTS-HD streams. | ||

| + | If I *did* want to make it backwards compatible, here's all that would change: | ||
| + | |||
| + | * FDK AAC only | ||
| + | * MPEG4 container | ||
| + | |||
| + | If I wanted to be even more strict to avoid throwing off certain hardware: | ||
| + | |||
| + | * No VobSub or Closed Captioning | ||
| + | * No chapter support | ||
| + | * Variable framerate same as source or 30 constant fps | ||
| + | * medium preset | ||
