It's quiet here... The software seems to be working perfectly

Well, I don't want to spoil the party, but I did find a small issue with chapter creation. It only happens for muxed MPEG2 source files. I have set an interval for automatic chapter creation and also ticked the checkbox to prefer the source chapters if present.

In this case the fixed chapters routine should take over (MPG files cannot have chapters). But it doesn't, no chapters will be created. I believe that the reason is that MediaInfo reports one empty chapter for these files. This is the source info from AVStoDVD:

CHAPTERS INFO
Chapter 1: Count

This MediaInfo output is not correct IMO, but it has been there forever (I went back to version 0.7.58). So I think that A2D should just assume that there never is any source chapter info for MPEG2 files.

BTW if I first demux the MPG file and feed the elementary streams to A2D, the chapters will be created correctly.


Otherwise the latest alpha version with the fixed BatchMux version is in frequent use here, and for me it is absolutely stable.
