Changelog:
Version 1.6.19 build 24586 (September 27, 2007)
Fixed some problems when importing and muxing external AC-3 and MPEG audio files.
Version 1.6.19 build 24571 (September 16, 2007)
Fixed an "out of memory" error when loading .m2v (video only) MPEG files.
Version 1.6.19 build 24570 (September 14, 2007)
The "File / Save WAV..." dialog no longer shows "mp3" and "ac3" file extensions.
Still more changes to improve the accuracy of the audio skew report.
Version 1.6.19 build 24560 (August 23, 2007)
Unfortunately, the change I made October 24, 2005 (which was supposed to reduce the memory footprint by not storing PTS for every sample) has caused a situation in which audio skew is reported incorrectly in the "File Information" dialog for MPEG files. I've had to undo that change.
I've switched to using 7-Zip to archive the source code package
Version 1.6.19 build 24528 (August 10, 2007)
Finally fixed a rare crash which happens when decoding some slightly broken MPEG files.
Version 1.6.19 build 24507 (August 4, 2007)
I've discovered a bug in the way seek positions are calculated in imported MPEG audio files. This build fixes the seeking problem.
I've found another problem which is specific to imported 22050 Hz and 44100 Hz MPEG audio files, which manifests itself as a rapid "clicking" in the audio. It's caused by the presence of padding bytes in the MPEG stream, but I don't have a fix for it yet.
Version 1.6.19 build 24484 (August 3, 2007)
I've upgraded the core to version 1.6.19.
I've added one new experimental feature, "Browse for audio" in the Audio menu. This feature allows you to import an external AC-3 or MPEG audio file as your audio source, with some restrictions:
1) The file must begin with a valid AC-3 or MPEG audio header, or an ID3v2 tag which leads to a valid MPEG audio header. If you import a broken or corrupt file, the result may be garbage or a crash. There is almost no error handling.
2) The file must have a constant bitrate. VBR audio is not supported.
3) MPEG-2 audio (ISO/IEC 13818-3) is only allowed if the file is an MP3 file. MPEG Layer I and II files must be MPEG version 1 (ISO/IEC 11172-3).
4) You must have an ACM codec installed which can decode the audio format.
