Changes in v0.41

LAV Splitter:

-New MKV Demuxer (see release notes for details)
-Fixed a bug with the Vorbis Media Type
-Disabled Subtitles when generating Thumbnails in Explorer

LAV Video:

-Fixed a overflow in 10 -> 8 bit dithering and NV12 output

Notes:
New MKV Demuxer
What does that bring us?
-Faster and more accurate seeking
-Better handling of incomplete/broken files

No really \"new\" features yet, just a new basis for future enhancements. It will usually work much smoother then before, however, and so far no regressions have been reported.

Important: If a MKV file breaks that played fine with 0.40 or earlier, please report those cases, preferably with a sample file!
I hope it won\'t happen too often, but i would be surprised if it never happens, but here is hoping!

The other changes are pretty minor, fixed a small glitch in the 10 -> 8bit dithering code that could overflow in some cases, but nothing really widely spread i suppose, since it took so long until it was noticed.

Bei LAV tut sich ja einiges ... gibt es schon weitere Erfahrungswerte gegenüber ffmppeg? Hat's jemand von Euch im Betrieb?

[SiLæncer]

Ich nutze den LAV-Filter hier schon einige Zeit ...und finde das er ...was Videoqualität und CPU Auslastung angeht ...dem ffmppeg eigentlich in nichts nachsteht ...
