1.21.0-SB17:

Fixed double-loading of plugins

Renamed PMSEncoder file for easier updating.

Note: You should manually delete the PMSEncoder file/s in your installation directory (pmsencoder-1.4.0.jar and/or pmsencoder-1.3.0.jar)

Added a lot of new things to WEB.conf by merging Dan_Aykroyd's file from here

Note: WEB.conf will not be overwritten, so if you want the new one you need to either rename or delete the old one.

1.21.0-SB18:

* Synchronised with official r511 from r506 (Click here for changelog)

* Updated MediaInfo to 0.7.41 from 0.7.35 which improves support for weird files

* Updated PMSEncoder from 1.4.0 to 1.5.1

* Fixed conflict between MT and ASS/SSA Subtitle option

* ASS option no longer breaks VOBSUB subtitles

* MP4 container + SRT subtitles are no longer bugged.

Note: In that specific case, ASS subtitle styles won't apply. This is because of a MEncoder bug so there is nothing to be done about it. You can mux the MP4 container to MKV using MKVToolnix to fix that.

This program is really coming on (Y)

DVD ISO playback on multicore computers is fixed

Updated MediaInfo to 0.7.42 from 0.7.41 (Click here for changelog)

That's good to hear. I just wasn't sure if people came back to look at this thread for new info or ramblings. I know I just have spirton.com bookmarked and check it every now and again to see what new software he has released.

1.22.0-SB26:

* Synchronised with official r578 from r561 (changelog)

http://www.spirton.com/

This release should fix most of the "data corrupted" issues people have been experiencing, especially with DVD, MKV and MP4 files.

(Y)

Nice, I had just updated this on Saturday to the previous update (I was not aware that version was out) as I was having all sorts of issues playing content. Thing is though the last version released seemed to fix all my issues, so if this one is the one claiming to fix all the issues, the issues should really, really be fixed. So will update to this new version when I get home. (Y)

1.22.0-SB27:

* Synchronised with official r588 from r578 (changelog)

* Windows service hopefully fixed by using ProgramData instead of AppData by default for configs

Note for Windows users:

To retain your old settings you may have to copy your old config file/s to a new directory.

To find out where the new directory is on your computer, run the program and go to the Traces tab and look on the 14th line, the line that says "Profile directory:", that is the folder your config files should be saved now.

    • Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen expansion to bring snowy region, new updates also coming by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Capcom had a surprise waiting for Dragon's Dogma fans today in the Nintendo Direct presentation. The company revealed an expansion for the second installment with a name that should be familiar to series veterans. Coming later this year, Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen is promising a massive new region to explore, new monsters, fresh skills to learn, and more. The studio says players will be heading to the Northern region of the world, named Norgan, to find new secrets about an undying "Fallen Dragon." There will be forgotten relics that the protagonist can find to unlock fresh weapons and skills the expansion is introducing. Players will also be able to find mysterious equipment from a previous Arisen as a part of the expansion, all part of 12 Lost Rites Dungeon Challenges they must complete to gain access. In Neowin's own review, I found Dragon's Dogma 2 to be an impressive RPG when it launched back in 2024, giving the title an 8.5/10 for its class variants, companion system, and immersive exploration. "Once a prosperous region of the kingdom of Vermund, it was abandoned many years ago for reasons unknown," says Capcom about the new region. "Long has it been since any soul traveled its paths. Blanketed in heavy snow, these frigid lands are home to savage hordes and creatures of unbelievable power. Those who are capable of vanquishing such fearsome foes, or those who possess a keen eye for exploration, will find themselves rewarded with powerful relics." Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen expansion launches on October 9, 2026, with a $29.99 price tag. Ahead of the expansion release, Capcom is also planning to release two free updates to the base game. The first will land tomorrow, June 10, bringing more accessible fast travel with an Eternal Ferrystone and other quality-of-life adjustments. The second update will land sometime in August, aiming to improve frame rates, add more save slots, and bring even more community-requested adjustments. This expanded Dark Arisen edition is also launching on the Nintendo Switch 2 on the same day the content comes to PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5.
    • Classic themes are just the colors on the bar like the olden days, if you use the image themes, it does fancy transparent backgrounds and it makes the elements of the app look like they are transparent bubbles. This sample image shows what it looks like.  
    • Good point, unfortunately. NextDNS has far more filters and workarounds than uBlock, and it's easy to implement.
    • Windows 10 KB5094127 Patch Tuesday improves File Explorer search and more by Taras Buria The June 2026 Patch Tuesday updates are here, bringing mandatory patches to users with PCs enrolled in the Extended Security Update program for Windows 10. Microsoft is rolling out KB5094127, with build numbers 19045.7417 and 19044.7417. Changelog includes the following: [File Explorer] This update improves File Explorer search, including support for Chinese text, and UTF 8–encoded files without a byte order mark (BOM). Text now displays more clearly and consistently across search results, Content view, and tooltips. [Secure Boot] This update enables dynamic status reporting for Secure Boot states in Windows Security App. This update adds a new policy setting, LimitSecureBootRequiredServiceData, under Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Secure Boot. When this setting is enabled, Windows limits the Secure Boot service data it sends by suppressing the event normally sent to Microsoft. This policy is also included in the Windows Restricted Traffic Limited Functionality Baseline package. For information about the policy, see Manage connections from Windows 10 and Windows 11 operating system components to Microsoft services. With this update, Windows quality updates include additional high confidence device targeting data, increasing coverage of devices eligible to automatically receive new Secure Boot certificates. Devices receive the new certificates only after demonstrating sufficient successful update signals, maintaining a controlled and phased rollout. As for known bugs, Microsoft has the following to say: A workaround is available in the official documentation. Today's updates are available for PCs enrolled in the Extended Security Updates program only. If your PC is eligible, you can download the update from Settings > Windows Update or from the Microsoft Update Catalog here.
    • Then the solution is to not let children have easy access to smart phones or internet until they are older, not mass surveillance. Only this would require parents to do actual parenting, most likely, as with any good solution to the problem.
