| 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. | 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. | ||

| + | * HandBrake 1.0.2 minimum, 1.0.7 maximum OR | ||
| + | * libav 12.0 to libav 12.3 | ||
| + | * Chapter support | ||

| + | 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 | ||
