* Released v4.3.0.
* mkvmerge: bug fix: Appending tracks which would normally be
compressed (e.g. with header removal compression) and turning off
compression for those tracks with "--compression TID:none" (or the
corresponsing option in mmg) was resulting in the second and all
following appended tracks to be compressed all the same.

* mkvextract: bug fix: Errors such as 'file does not exist' did
not cause mkvextract to quit. Instead it continued and exited with
the result code 0.
2010-08-28 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mkvmerge: bug fix: Certain frames in certain h.264/AVC raw
tracks were handled wrong, e.g. files created by x264 versions
starting with revision 1665. The situation occured if an IDR slice
comes immedtiately after a non-IDR slice and the IDR slice has its
frame_num and pic_order_count_lsb fields set to 0.

* mkvmerge: enhancement: Attachments will be rendered at the
beginning of the file again. Fix for bug 516.
2010-08-24 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mkvpropedit, mmg's header editor: Fixed a crash corrupting files
in certain situations. If the updated header fields required
filling exactly one byte with an EbmlVoid element and if the next
Matroska element's "size" was already written with its maximum
length (8 bytes) then the crash would occur. Such files are
written by e.g. lavf. Fix for bug 536.
2010-08-17 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* All: bug fix: Fixed a couple of format strings in translations
which could cause the programs to crash.
2010-08-14 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mkvinfo: new feature: mkvinfo will show the h.264 profile and
level for AVC/h.264 tracks along with the CodecPrivate element.
2010-08-10 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mkvmerge: bug fix: Video tracks with a width or height of 0 are
not read from AVI files anymore. Fix for bug 538.
2010-08-05 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mkvmerge: bug fix: Fixed an error with losing packets (error
message "packet queue not empty") when reading IVF (VP8) files
using --default-duration on it.
* mkvmerge: bug fix: Fixed access to uninitialized memory in the
MPEG-2 ES parser.
2010-08-03 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mmg: bug fix: The 'total remaining time' shown by the job
manager was totally wrong. Fix for bug 529.
2010-08-01 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* build system: The build system has been changed from "make" to
"rake", the Ruby based build tool. MKVToolNix includes its own
copy of it so all you need is to have Ruby itself installed. The
build proecss has been tested with Ruby 1.8.6, 1.8.7 and
1.9.1. Building is pretty much the same as before: "./configure",
"./drake", "sudo ./drake install". Most of the build targets have
similar if not identical names, e.g. "./drake install". You can
override variables just like with make, e.g. "./drake
prefix=/somewhere install".

* mmg header editor: bug fix: If a file was loaded that did not
contain 'track language' elements and those elements were
unchanged then they would be set to 'und' upon saving. Now they're
left as-is, and when adding them to the file the drop-down box
defaults to 'eng' being selected as per Matroska default value
specifications. Fix for bug 525.
2010-07-29 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* mkvextract, mkvinfo, mkvpropedit: new feature: Added the option
"-q" and its long version "--quiet". With "--quiet" active only
warnings and errors are output. Fix for bug 527.
* mkvmerge: bug fix: The option "--quiet" was not working
properly.
* mkgmerge: bug fix: mkvmerge was treating SSA/ASS subtitle files
as audio files for the purpose of track selection (--no-subtitles
/ --no-audio). Fix for bug 526.
