The builds 142-145

16.0.145 (8/2/2011)

1. Changed: Removed the Subtitles > On / Off menu choice that would appear for videos with no subtitles (ffdshow didn't specify if subtitles existed, but the internal subtitle engine solves this).
2. Fixed: When image or video playback was started while in Display View (from a script, SDK, etc.) the display could unexpectedly jump out of Display View.
3. Changed: Moved 'Display Settings...' popup dialog options into the main program options (Options > Tree & View > Full Screen).
4. Fixed: Switching subtitles while playing could cause a crash in rare cases.
5. NEW: Added Options > Video > Subtitle size (changes size of text-based and image-based subtitles).
6. Changed: If connection between video decoder and renderer still fails after setting video decoder output format to RGB, Red October inserts Color Space Converter and tries connection again.
7. Changed: When madVR is configured to do video decoding, Red October HQ will try to connect to madVR without a video decoder first (video decoding in madVR disabled by default).
8. Changed: Updated to madVR 0.73.
9. NEW: Added Options > General > Show on screen instructions.
10. Faster: Theater View list scrolling using the arrow keys / remote is over 10 times faster.
11. NEW: Added DVD video burning.

16.0.144 (8/1/2011)

1. Fixed: The DVD menu button on the remote would not work while playing a DVD (only applies to the last few builds).
2. Fixed: Fast forwarding a DVD to the menu would leave the playback rate display stuck (only applies to the last few builds).
3. Changed: Improved performance of hardware accelerated drawing engine used by Theater View, image playback, etc. with devices that could stall when testing for device lost states.
4. Fixed: When starting an image slideshow, the caption (if enabled in Options > Images) would not appear for the first image.
5. Fixed: Blu-ray (PGS) subtitles that spanned multiple item blocks were not being decoded properly.
6. Changed: Added more logging to playlist saving to help troubleshoot a Rockbox upload problem.
7. Fixed: Resolutions not explicitly supported by the monitor would not work properly for auto-refresh rate changing.
8. Changed: Updated to newer ffdshow (7/31) which reverted a change which caused choppy performance on many video files.
9. Fixed: With the option 'Move center to front L/R' enabled, videos that used center-focused mixing could sound bad.

16.0.143 (7/29/2011)

1. Fixed: YouTube support was not working due to YouTube server changes.
2. Changed: Improved how the playback position display works so that it both appears smoother and uses fewer resources.
3. Changed: The merge of video and DVD playback code is finished. Please report any problems.
4. Changed: Revised the right-click menu layout for video / DVD playback.
5. Changed: Updated to version .31 of LAV audio and splitter directshow filters. LAV audio now handles DTS-WAV files nicely.
6. Changed: For ffdshow auto-config, we're now setting flag titled 'multiThread' to 1 as well as 'numThreads' to number of processors. May be needed since ffmpeg-mt was merged with libavcodec??
7. Changed: Updated German language file (thanks Bytestar).
8. Changed: Video resolutions not explicitly supported by the display will still be listed in Options > Video > Display Settings.

16.0.142 (7/28/2011)

1. Changed: Revised threading used by video playback engine, with the goal of improving video startup time and solving madVR hangs / stalls.
2. NEW: Television recording option to specify the max number of episodes to keep for a particular subscription.
3. Internal: Merging of video and DVD playback engines (still a work in progress, DVD playback may be problematic for a few builds).
