Increased maximum output size (was 4 times DL).
Fixed OS-X Lion crash on edit of disk name.
Fixed missing first chapter on titles from discs made with Panasonic DVR (thanks Ron!).Relaxed the video, audio and subtitle attributes comparison for the seamless join to only compare the essential attributes. This should solve some cases in which the seamless join of multiple discs failed.
Both letter-boxed and pan&scan representation of a widescreen DVD on a 4:3 TV is now always allowed. These video attributes are also not compared anymore for the seamless join.


DVD2one V2.4.1 (July 12, 2010)

DVD2one V2.3.0 (September 16, 2008)

* New option for movie-only and join mode: Target. This option defines what type of output files will be created:
o DVD Player: this is the default target and will create a dvd-video fileset that will play on any dvd player.
o Media Player: this will output a single VOB file which should play on most media players.
o PS3 USB HDD: this is a special mode for creating a single VOB file that will play directly from an USB Hard Disk Drive on the PS3. It does essentially the same as target Media Player, but the output size is automatically limited to 4GB. Also special warnings are displayed for audio and subtitle tracks that can not be played from the XMB. Please read manual for more info.
* New advanced option: support for dvd-video filesets bigger than 9GB:
o The extra data is place in the 9th VOB file (thanks to Blutach for the idea!).
o This option can be used to create large joins for re-encoding with other tools.
o The output plays perfectly fine with Apple DVD player, VLC, PowerDVD and Media Player Classic.
o Please note that dvd-video filesets bigger than 9GB are not compliant and may not work properly with other 3rd party tools or dvd players.
* Fixed incorrect error message when the default output location does not exist (thanks to Aaron for the tip!).

* Fixed problem with missing audio tracks in full disc copy (thanks to forum member NinjaSteve).
* Changed the way error conditions caused by corrupted data in source are handled.
* Added automatic language selection for the user interface on first startup.
* Increased program speed by rewriting core bit reading and writing routines and by improving the best quality mode processing routine:
o PC: 30% faster (test movie from 11:38 to 8:55 on Pentium-M 1.2Ghz).
o Mac: 43% faster (test movie from 12:02 to 8:25 on dual G5 2GHz).
o The PC core bit reading and writing routines were already more optimized than the Mac versions, hence the difference.
