PgcEdit 0.4.7 released.
* New "Delete Last PGC in Domain" utility to remove the last PGC of the LUs in the current menu domain, or the last PGC of the current title domain. In title domain, the last PGC must be the last TTN of the titleset and the last Title in the DVD.
* Added a check for incorrect number of VOB IDs in the VTS_C_ADT table as a workaround for a DVDShrink bug in reauthor mode (number of VOB IDs saved in the table is always 1).
* As a SPRM cannot be used as the first operand of the IF comparison, the SPRM option has been removed from the GUI of the command ediror. Also, a command with a "if ( sprm(x) ... )" will now generate an ILLEGAL SPRM warning.
* Show Menu Buttons did not work when there were no buttons in the first cell of the PGC.
* PgcEdit Preview v 1.5: Fixed a rare problem where preview was displaying black frames instead of the video.

PgcEdit 0.4.8 released.
[*] Option "When saving, leave at least 32K of space between IFO and BUP?" to help protect your DVD against defects and scratches. Use with caution!
[*] Added File -> Burn DVD / Create ISO to create an ISO image with mkisofs and optionally burn it with DVD Decrypter. This method supports the 32K space option above. For Windows only.
[*] When loading the DVD, a warning is issued if there are empty (0 byte) menu VOBs. Also, the stream attributes of the VOBs are resetted to 0 when the menu VOB is removed by the 'Blank Out All Menu PGCs' function.
[*] Trace mode: Removed "WARNING: Trying to play cell 1 of a dummy PGC!" dialog when a dummy PGC is played. However, this message is still present if the cell to play is not cell 1.
[*] Fixed rare a bug occuring in Trace mode when the First-Play PGC was played (ie. when the current position was on the "*** post-command" label)

PgcEdit 0.4.9 released.
[*] Added the "DVDStreams Streams Remapping" macro to check if the DVDShrink option "Logical remapping of enabled streams" may be safely used in full disc mode with the current DVD.
[*] Added a button "ISO639 language codes" in the Trace's Virtual Player Setup GUI to show the valid language codes.
[*] The PGC breakpoints are now cleared when a new DVD is loaded, but still not when the same DVD is reloaded (including after a restore backup).
[*] Burn DVD: Added an option to mount the ISO image using Daemon-Tools.
[*] Burn DVD: Added a confirmation dialog if the ISO image already exists.
[*] Burn DVD: The VobBlanker_backup folder is now automatically excluded of the ISO image, like the PgcEdit_backup folder.
[*] Burn DVD: Miscellaneous enhancements and little bug fixes.
[*] Burn DVD Bug fixed: The abort button did not kill the mkisofs process in the standalone exe.
[*] Burn DVD: Free disk space was wrong on Win 9X and on foreign Win 2K/NT/XP.
Note: The free disk space is not tested anymore on Win 95/98/ME/SE!
[*] Shortcut to select all the Trace output changed to Control-Shift-A to avoid a bug with Control-a.
Also, look at the homepage. There are updated and new guides...

It's the version history of PgcEdit. Of course, if you don't know PgcEdit, you will not be interested on this thread.

Can someone tell me what PgcEdit does? I downloaded it so I could add menus to my AVI that didn't originally have any, and burn them to a dvd. But I have no clue what I was looking at. I don't even know what VOB and IFO and all that other stuff are. Can someone one help me or find me a step by step guide?

PgcEdit 0.5.1 released
* Menu Buttons/BOVs Editor.
* Wrong display aspect ratio was used in the menu buttons viewer for group types sharing modes "normal" + "letterbox".
* Fixed wrong highlighted target/jump to target in menu domains: the target was always in LU 1.
* Moved the stream's VOB IDs from the Domain Streams Attributes to the PGC Streams assignments GUI, where they should be. The streans IDs are now hopefully corrects.
* Linux standalone executables 0.5.0beta1 to 0.5.1beta1 were broken. The sources were OK. V 0.5.1beta2 is the first working 0.5 standalone exe.
* Fixed a bug in 'Delete last PGC in domain' in title domain. The new total number of TTNs was wrong when a PGC sharing the same TTN number with another one was deleted.
* Small bug fixed that prevented to "Delete Last PGC in Domain" if the PGC was created with "New Dummy PGC" during the same PgcEdit session.

PgcEdit 0.5.2 released
[*] Added a Configuration option in the virtual player setup to load the PGN (Program number) instead of the PTTN (Chapter number) in SPRM 7. Many software and hardware players are not standard compliant on this point.
[*] Added Export and Import options to save and load the color lookup table of the current PGC in the PGC Editor. File format: raw YCrCb color table (64 bytes, with leading 0 before each color) or RGB colors in ASCII format.
The import function can also import the colors from a Muxman project, or from a VTS IFO file (the colormap of the first PGC is used).
[*] Added an option to display the popup menus when the right mouse button is released instead of pushed. This option is not recommended, though.
[*] Added an option to store the PgcEdit_backup in the root folder of the DVD instead of in the VIDEO_TS folder. Useful to launch programs that doesn't work if there are illegal files in VIDEO_TS (like WinDVD).
[*] Added File->Incremental Backup. Renames the current PgcEdit_backup folder (adds the modification time and date), and creates a new PgcEdit_backup.
[*] A warning is issued when entering the menu buttons viewer if several sets of menu buttons are found in a cell. Currently, PgcEdit handles only the first set. A new option to optionally scan for multiple sets of BOVs has also been added in the 'Scan for BOVs' dialog, and the scanning for sets of buttons is optimized for speed.
[*] Multiple errors messages when parsing the VOBs for menu buttons are now suppressed. Take care: one error message means that the whole VOB is not correctly parsed!
[*] When saving buttons or BOVs, the original highlight status is left unchanged so that the animated highlights (for example, in Spiderman) will now still be animated.
[*] File->Delete Backup(s) is able to delete the backups created by PgcEdit, VobBlanker, MenuShrink and Windows (Copy of ...), including incremental backups. TitleSetBlanker backups are not supported anymore.
[*] Burn DVD: Excludes the backups PgcEdit_backup*, VobBlanker_backup*, MenuShrinkBackup* and "Copy of *" from the compilation.
[*] Better error trapping for file I/O errors (copy, delete, rename, makedir). Now, a dialog pops up, allowing to retry the operation.
[*] Thanks to the demo version of the Tcl DevKit, the code is now a little bit optimized, and a couple of potential bugs have been fixed.
[*] The last VTS's title domain BOVs were never saved. Fixed.
[*] "Can't read "::buttons::butsinfo(*,hlendtime)": no such element in array" (and selendtime) errors when a new button was created are now fixed.
[*] The total number of menu buttons or BOVs displayed in the PGC selector label was not updated after a Remove Cell. Fixed.
[*] Trace: When in a button command, LinkNextCell linked to the current cell, and LinkPrevCell linked to the current cell -2. Fixed.
[*] Fixed a little bug in the "Options/Install/Associate PgcEdit with IFO (or BUP) Files", when the association was already present, but was blank.
[*] Problem deleting the DLLs in the bin directory when uninstalling PgcEdit is now partially fixed. You will need to delete them manually.
Please note: DVD Decrypter 3.5.4.0 (as well as 3.5.3.0) has a bug when burning ISOs with some burners or medias. If you get an "Unable to recover TOC" I/O error after the completion of the burn, don't blame PgcEdit! I have tested a private beta release of DVD Decrypter, and this problem is now fixed. Please use DVDD 3.5.2.0 or wait for the next version!

PgcEdit 0.5.3 released
It's principally a bugfix release. Please download it!
[*] Added an option in Info -> Calls Cross References do delete the commands in the unreferenced PGCs, and to clear the Prev/Next/GoUpPGC links. May be used to find more unreferenced PGCs in subsequent calls to the Calls Cross References function. Also, another option allow to convert unreferenced menu PGCs to dummies, to easily blank them with VobBlanker.
[*] Added "Delete All Commands" in the Edit (and popup) menu.
[*] Important bug in v0.5.2 fixed: new buttons created in a cell originally without buttons/BOVs were saved only in the first nav pack of the cell.
[*] PgcEdit was unable to parse the VTSM_C_ADT table if the table was present, but with no entries defined in the table. Fixed now.
[*] Fixed a bug in the parsing of the VTS_C_ADT table, occuring in rare circumstances: a wrong Nav Pack number was read, causing the search for menu buttons or BOVs to fail.
[*] Inport First-Play/Intro/Closing Clip: The cell commands numbers of the imported title are now forced to 0 in the cell playback table.
[*] Added a little delay when the Open DVD/Save DVD file requester is closed, to avoid a little Tk bug.

PgcEdit 0.5.4 released.
Fixes a bug in Import Startup/Intro/Closing Clip macros, introduced in v0.5.3.
Also, there is a new PgcEdit_preview executable, by jeanl. Not a verry important improvment, but it's the first step to implement the preview under Linux (and maybe also under Mac OSX).
[*] New PgcEdit_preview v0.7: with option to turn off the usage of DirectDraw overlays to show the preview, and an option to save the menu backgrounds as PPM instead of BMP (internal use only!)
[*] Added "Preview -> Disable DirectDraw Overlays" (Windows only) option. On some systems, it may be faster to turn off the DirectDraw overlay display.
[*] Shift-clicking on the "BMP" button in the preview window allow to save an image in PPM format.
[*] Inport First-Play/Intro/Closing Clip macros were broken in 0.5.3. Fixed.

PgcEdit 0.5.5 released
Thanks to jeanl, PgcEdit is now able to use PgcEditPreview.exe under Linux, through [URL=http://www.winehq.org/]wine[/URL].
Also, it may run under Mac OSX, through [URL=http://darwine.opendarwin.org]darwine[/URL]. However, it has not been tested yet. I'd like to hear if it works...
Of course, both wine (aka "wine hq") and darwine are free.
[*] PREVIEW (and menu backgrounds) available for Linux, and probably also for Mac OSX. You must install wine (for Linux) or darwine (for Mac OSX) to be able to use it.
[*] Added the Preview -> Use Preview option, to allow Linux or Mac users to turn the preview off, in case of problems with wine or darwine. Although not verry useful, this option is available also under Windows.
[*] Fixed a bug in v0.5.4, which caused the display of 16:9 letterboxed menus in the menu viewer to fail.
[*] When saving menu buttons, if you answered NO at the "Backup VOB?" request, PgcEdit offered to backup the VOB again and again. Fixed.

PgcEdit 0.5.7 released.
[*] A. PgcEditor: Added an Angle column ("A.") in the cell list. The angle value is computed from the Type Flags. "-" means all angles, "?" means error.
[*] A. Added a function to remove the current LU from the IFO. The VOB cells are left unreferenced. You may strip them with VobBlanker easily.

[*] A. Added an option to go automatically to Trace mode whan a DVD is opened.
[*] A. Shift-clicking on a PGC in the PGC Selector now toggles the breakpoints on that PGC (without selecting it).

PgcEdit 0.6.0 released.
[*] A. Burn DVD / Create ISO support for Double Layer DVD+R and DL DVD-R:
- The method allow the user to select the layer break in a wide range of cells (actually twice as wide as the 'standard' method)!
- Added a GUI to specify the Layer Break cell.
- Added menu "Options -> Burn / Create ISO setup" menu to call the Burn Setup dialog directly from the main window.
- The Burn Setup window has been modified to include, among other things, the capacity of a single layer DVD and of a double layer DVD.
- New starter app for MacOSX (v0.5a), by Pucklock, including mkisofs 2.01 (needed for the Create ISO function.) Thanks to Pucklock! Note that this new starter app starts the X11 version automatically instead of the Aqua version.
[*] R. Removed the original link to DVD Decrypter's homepage in the Burn Setup dialog because this page is discontinued, and may be monitored by "a major DVD company". Replaced by a direct download link at VideoHelp.
[*] A. Utilities -> Remap Title Numbers function to renumber the Titles. The references to the Title numbers in the VMG are automatically updated.
[*] A. Utilities -> Delete last VTS in DVD function. Use this function only when the last titleset is not referenced!
[*] A. Info -> Find Jumps To Nowhere function showing commands and PrevPGCN, NextPGCN or GoUpPGCN links jumping to non existing PGCs or Titles.
[*] A. Calls Cross References: Added listing of jumps to nowhere references.
[*] A. Added an option to display the PGC labels as text in the context menu of an empty line of the PGC selector.
[*] A. Added shortcut Control+P to launch the PGC Preview.
[*] A. Added the first step to implement plugins for PgcEdit in the future.
[*] A. Added an option to change the default listbox background color to white when running PgcEdit under X11. (Linux, and MacOSX with Tk-X11 only)
[*] E. After 'Clone PGC' or 'New Play All Title', the number of buttons of the new PGC is now displayed in the PGC Selector.
[*] E. Menu Editor: Changed the menu labels Buttons -> Align vertically and Align horizontally to Align on same column and Align on same row.
[*] E. Now, there is no need to select your Web Browser the first time an HTML page is opened under Mac OSX: the 'open' command is used instead.
[*] E. Under Linux and Mac OSX, the config files are now saved in "~/.PgcEdit/".
Under all platforms, the leading dot has been removed from the filenames.
[*] F. Burn DVD: The calculation of the size of DVD-ROM files crashed when an empty DVD-ROM directory was present in the compilation.
[*] F. Fixed some bugs in the Find All function: the line number (when the target was a pre, post or cell command) and the cell number (when the target was a button or BOV) were off by 1, and the button group was not always correctly displayed. The GUI has been changed also to avoid the Tcl/Tk limitaiton of the number of occurences that can be displayed in a canvas.
[*] F. Jump to PGC Upon DVD Insert macro: when several LUs were present and the user selected the option to process all LUs, there was a bug in the reconstruction of the commands of the modified PGCs in LU 2 and following.
[*] F. PGC Editor: The color table was not saved after an Import Colors from an IFO file.
[*] F. An error occured when trying to hi-lite the target of a Jump command when the target VTS was not present.
[*] F. It was sometimes impossible to close the "Go to calling command" window.
[*] F. PgcEdit Preview Version 2.0, by jeanl. Fixes 3 bugs. See history below.
Also new on my homepage:
[*] New MacOSX starter app v0.5a, including mkisofs v2.1 (needed for the new Create ISO function)

[*] Updated version of Tobi's PgcEdit Anleitung.PDF and Beispiele.PDF, updated for PgcEdit 0.6.0, including a guide on how to burn Double Layer DVDs.
[*] Alternate set of toolbar icons, by Sweetness.
[*] And much more...

PgcEdit v0.6.2 (December 2, 2005):
E. PGC Editor's cells flags: The Access Restricted and the VOBU Still flags are now availables in the Cells Type Flags editor, rather than directly in the cells list. Previously, only the VOBU Still was available. The Type Flags button contains now two values, one for each byte. Also, some of the flags labels have been changed to reflect more closely the official terminology.
E. PGC Editor: Added tooltips on the cell command number fields to display the current cell command. The cell commands numbers higher than the number of cell commands currently defined are now highlighted in pink. Similarily, the Prev/Next/GoUpPGCN link values are highlighted in pink if the target PGC doesn't exist.
E. Enable All Operations now prompts the user if he wants to remove also the Access Restricted flags on the cells of the current PGC, when this flag is set on some cells. Warning: the Access Restricted flag is especially used by the Sony ARccOS protection. In this case, it should not be removed.
E. Changed the listbox/entry default color to use the Windows default. Added Option -> User Interface -> White Listbox Background also under Windows and Mac OSX.
E. Burn DVD: a new selector button has been added to select the DL media type from the main dialog. The Sectors in L0 value in the Burn Setup window is now ignored when burning a DL+R.
E. Since ImgBurn is now stable and doesn't require the layer break sector number in his settings anymore, the dialog asking if the user wants to copy the layer break value in the clipboard has been removed when ImgBurn is used, and when a DL DVD-R is used.
E. Burn DVD: when the log is displayed, the Save button uses now by default the same filename as the ISO, but with a _log.txt extension.
A. A new menu "Options -> Install -> Install a plugin" has been added to help the novice user to install a PgcEdit plugin.
E/F. The standalone version of PgcEdit now uses freeWrap version 6.1. This solves the problem of the mouse double-clicks being passed through the file open/save or folder selection dialogs to the underlying window.
F. The Kill PGC playback function now appends a LinkPGCN command at the end of the pre-commands when the NextPGC link is non-zero and doesn't point to itself. Without this command, the PGC was sometimes played.
F. Fixed the bug in Remove Cells function of the PGC Editor that caused the function to silently fail in some occasions.
F. The Prohibited User Operations window was sometimes pushed below the main window when the Input Value button was used.
F. Import Title Closing Clip crashed if the current PGC was a PGC without a Title number.
F. Fixed a problem on some Windows systems where the web browser executable was wrongly considered as not executable by TCL/TK.
F. Burn DVD: Workaround for a problem with mkisofs on some systems: Mkisofs reports sometimes an "Invalid node - -m" error when the backup folders are not deleted. Now, when this error occur, a dialog pops-up, asking if you want to delete the backups, continue w/o deleting the backups, or cancel.
DVD Shrink plugin v1.3:
- Added function to clear the Analysis cache of DVDShrink, to force it to recompute the analysis of the already processed DVDs, or to preserve disc space.

PgcEdit v0.6.3 released!
[*] A. It is now possible to bypass a menu with buttons with Kill Playback. The user is prompted to select the button to simulate.
[*] A. Pgc EDitor -> Create new blank cell: New interface. It is now possible to insert the cell at the beginning of the PGC.
[*] E. Pgc Editor -> Create New Blank Cell: The GUI has been revamped completely. It is now possible to use an existing and referenced Cell from the original VOB file, or, as before, to create a new blank cell. The button to call this function has been renamed from "Create a new blank cell" to "Create a new cell".
[*] A. Pgc EDitor -> Create new blank cell and Reassign VOB/Cell ID: Option added to reuse the last tiny blank cell at the end of the VOB file (available only when that cell has been created previously by PgcEdit.)
[*] E. Pgc Editor -> Create new blank cell and Reassign VOB/Cell ID: There is now a Preview button in the GUI to show the selected replace cell.
[*] E. Jump to PGC upon DVD insert: When the target PGC is in a menu domain, the last title played before the target PGC is now always called (but not played) just before the target menu PGC so that a valid resume point exists when the menu is reached for the first time. This method should fix the (rare) problem caused by the usage of a RSM command in the menu to call the main title. Previously, the title PGC was called before the menu only when it was in the same titleset than the target menu.
[*] E. When importing titles in a DVD with parental managment, the user is now prompted to remove the parental managment of the original DVD, and when importing a menu, it is prompted to clear the parental managment IDs of the menu PGCs, if there are IDs in the menu.
[*] E. Burn DVD: Interface revamped, and new option to close automatically PgcEdit after a successful ISO creation.
[*] E. Burn DVD: The new ImgBurn 1.1 command lines options /CLOSESUCCESS and /WAITFORMEDIA are now used instead of /CLOSE (though /CLOSE is still used if the ISO image is burnt with DVD Decrypter.) Please note that you need ImgBurn 1.1.0.0 or the "Close ImgBurn" option will not work!
[*] F Burn DVD: The layer break sector passed to ImgBurn or DVDD was wrong when burning a DL DVD-R. (No problem with DL DVD+R.)
[*] F. Burn DVD: Changed the way the backup files are excluded from the compilation. In v0.6.2, the old method caused harmless errors when the DVD files were moved in the new VIDEO_TS directory.
[*] F? Burn DVD: Changed again the syntax to exclude the backup files from the compilation to avoid the mkisofs "-m" bug.
[*] F Burn DVD: A batch file is now always used under Windows to call mkisofs, and the mkisofs command line is split in environment variables to avoid the line too long M$-DOS bug under Win9X.
[*] F? Burn DVD: Redirecting stderr to stdout doesn't work under Win9X! Workaround: the output of mkisofs is not well checked under Win9X. For this reason, the user should take care of the error messages in the log!
See the warning under Win9X when the Burn Setup dialog is opened.
[*] F. Burn DVD: Wrong error message when moving the backup folders in VIDEO_TS.
[*] F. Burn DVD: Under Windows, it is now impossible to type foreign characters in the output ISO field, because those characters are not correctly translated by MKISOFS, and therefore the file cannot be opened by ImgBurn.
[*] F. Kill PGC Playback: The Set, SetCLnk, CSetCLnk or CSetLNK command with a Link to a cell, program or chapter were not trapped. Now, a dialog pops up to warn the user.
[*] F. PGC Editor: Fixed a bug in the Cell preview: A wrong cell was shown after a Vob/Cell ID remapping.
[*] F. PGC Editor: Toggling the Layer Break checkbox did not change the seamless joint flag value. This bug has been introduced in v0.6.2.
[*] F. Command Editor - CallSS command: The option to resume at the point where the title was interupted (resume cell 0) has been removed, since this option seems illegal in all cases.
[*] F. Remap Titlesets: The modified JumpSS-VTSM commands in the menu buttons of the VMGM were not saved during the operation.
[*] W. Workaround for the pskill.exe problem with McAfee antivirus. It is now encrypted in the standalone executable, so that McAfee doesn't complain. McAfee may still complain when the real file is scanned in the bin folder.
DVDShrink plugin v1.4 released!
[*] DVDShrink Remote Buttons: Added the options to use the Prev Chapter button and/or the Return button to go back to the beginning of the previous title

PgcEdit 0.6.3.1 released! (January 29, 2005)
[*] F. Burn DVD: If the user cancels the layer break selection dialog, the dialog is closed, but the OK and Cancel button of the main burn dialog are still disabled. There is no way to close this dialog, and the user must kill PgcEdit.
This problem has been introduced in v0.6.3, and is now fixed.
Thanks to Tobi for the bug repport!

PgcEdit v7.0 released!
As requested by many users (thanks, guys!) I have finally removed the useless leading "0." in the version number. The enormous gap between the latest official version 0.6.3.1 and this v7.0 doesn't mean that it's a particularly major upgrade, or that all bug are fixed.
Release notes:
[*] A. Added a preview checkbox in the upper left corner of the main window. When ticked, selecting a PGC manually starts the preview automatically.
[*] A. Menu Editor: New function "Edit -> Copy button position only" to copy the current button position. Paste it with "Paste Current Button".
[*] A. Menu Editor: New functions "Button -> Increase / Decrease Button Number" to move the current button in the list of buttons.
[*] A. New function Info -> Jumps from VMG to Current VTS to find out the global references to the current VTS. (This function doesn't show the references from the current VTS to itself.) Useful to verify if the last VTS is still referenced and to reroute the references before removing it.
[*] A. Preview: In trace mode, it is now possible to blank the current cell from the preview window. In addition, when all cells of the current PGC are blanked, the user is prompted to kill the playback of the PGC.
[*] A. Kill Playback: When killing the playback of a Title PGC, the user has now the option to blank all cells of the PGC, to easily strip the original cells later with FixVTS or VobBlanker. This function is similar to the option to remove the cells of a menu PGC and convert it to a dummy.
[*] A. Added the menu Options -> Functions -> Kill PGC Playback -> Always remove or blank the PGC cells, to eliminate the dialog asking if the cells must be removed (for a Menu PGC) or blanked (for a Title PGC.)
[*] A. PGC Editor: Added a function to delete all multi-angles cells, keeping only one angle. The Angle flags and First ILVU end value on the remaining cells are removed as well. It is then possible to strip the unused ILV cells from the VOB files with VobBlanker. It is necessary to remove all angles from the DVD or the domain that will be processed with VobBlanker, and to enable the "Fix Always VOB SYNCI/SRI Pointers in Titles" option!
The same function can be used to remove the ILV flags and First ILVU End value in interleaved (mono-angle) PGCs.
[*] A. PGC Editor -> Remove Cells: Added an option to keep the program numbers in sync with the original cells. However, when this option is enabled, it is possible that several PGs are pointing to the same cell. A warning is issued in this case, since this situation might be illegal.
[*] A. Added the menu Tools -> FixVTS, to launch FixVTS with the first VOB of the current domain already loaded. Useful to strip the blanked cells from the VOBs after a cells blanking from the preview.
[*] A. Domain Streams Attributes: It is now possible to remove the audio and subpic streams selectively in this dialog. The streams assignments in the PGCs of the current domain are also deleted automatically. The subsequent streams are automatically shifted if necessary. The SetSTN commands are NOT modified! (Note that this dialogue is now read-only when it is called from the PGC Editor.)
[*] A. Changed the maximum number of chanels to 8 in the Audio parameters of the Domain Streams Attributes dialog, to take the new formats into account.
[*] E. Calls Cross Reference and Go To Calling Command: A Root menu (that is normally callable with the remote) is now considered as unreferenced if all titles of the same VTS are unreferenced, or if all titles have the PUO to prohibit calling this menu. For the Subpic, Audio, Angle and PTT menus, all non-dummy PGCs of the same titleset are checked, including the menus. For the Title Menu, all non-dummy PGCs of the whole DVD are checked.
[*] E. Burn DVD: Support for the new /TESTMODE option of ImgBurn 1.2.0.0 (for DVD-R only!)
[*] E. Burn DVD: Added a button in the burn setup dialog to use the faster version of mkisofs.exe, now provided with PgcEdit (under Windows only.)
[*] E. Burn DVD: Added a check to ensure that mkisofs.exe is properly configured in the Burn Setup dialog. Some guys used ImgTool.exe instead!
[*] E. Burn DVD: Added an option to save automatically the Graph Data file for DVDInfoPro. The file is saved with the same name as the source ISO file, but with the .IBG extension. Requires ImgBurn 1.3 or more.
[*] E. Burn DVD: Added new burn speeds in the speed selector dropdown menu.
[*] E. Burn DL DVD: When a suitable cell cannot be found for the layer break, PgcEdit displays now in which cell the layer break should be. You can therefore easily use VobBlanker to split that cell.
[*] E. Remap Title Numbers: Now, this function searches for SPRM(4:Title Number in Volume) in the VM commands of the DVD. If SPRM 4 is used, a warning is displayed, as it is dangerous to remap the title numbers in this case.
[*] E. Menu Viewer/Edit Command button: In expert mode, the "Modify the command for the 2 (or 3) groups?" prompt is not displayed anymore, except when the original commands are not identical in all groups.
[*] E. Read DVD: Added a check for illegal entries in VMG_TT_SRPT table (Title assigned to a non existing PGC or 2 Titles assigned to the same PGC.) If the bad Title is the last one in the table, it is optionally removed, but the user must still fix the VM commands, if needed.
[*] E. When loading a new DVD, the Fix number of streams in VMGM/VTSI_MAT tables function do not prompt the user any more to fix the Menu domains with one subpic stream defined but never used by the menu PGCs, because it's legal and frequent on commercial DVDs, and this warning confused some users. However, this check is still made when the Fix number of streams is called from the "DVD" menu, and when opening the Domain Streams Attributes GUI.
[*] E. When loading the DVD, the End Byte pointers of the tables are now verified whenever possible to avoid stupid crashes with badly authored DVDs.
[*] E. PGC Editor: When editing a menu PGC, only one audio and one subpic stream is now displayed, since more streams in the menu domain is illegal.
[*] F. PGC Editor - Create New Cell: Disabling the option to create the backup of the VOB file did not work.
[*] F. The "New 'Play All' PGC" function was broken. Also, there is now a check to warn the user if the number of programs in the new PGC is greater than 127 or the number of chapters greater than 99.
[*] F. The target of some Jump_VTS_TT and Jump_VTS_PTT was not found by the find target routine. This caused some bugs in the Go to calling command, Calls cross references, Find jumps to nowhere, Jump to target and Highlight target functions.
[*] F. Trace: When the Title Menu button is pressed during playback of a VTSM menu PGC, the Title menu is now called. Previously, a Resume to Title was made. The correct behaviour in this case is uncertain, because the specs are not clear on this subject, but this behaviour seems logical and many players (though not all!) are doing this. A resume is still issued when the Title menu is pressed during playback of a VMGM menu PGC.
[*] F. Trace: Small bug fixed: when a cell command was reached, it was necessary to execute it twice, and the command was logged twice as well. However, the cell command was simulated only once.
[*] F. Small bug in the Jump To PGC Upon DVD Insert function, introduced in 0.6.3 fixed: the resume cell of the CallSS command inserted in the beginning of the pre-commands of the resume title was wrong.
[*] F. Fixed a bug in the Info -> Jumps from VMG to Current VTS function. The Prev/Next/GoUpPGCN links of the current VTS were wrongly displayed.
[*] F. Burn DL DVD: When burning a DL DVD saved by DVD Remake v3.4 (without first resaving it with PgcEdit), the computation of the layer break position was wrong. To fix this problem, the DVD (including single-layer DVDs) are saved automatically when the burn function is started.
[*] W. Added several workarounds for a (possible) bug in TitleWriter: TitleWriter assigns several Title numbers to the same PGC. Now, PgcEdit should support this strange (if not illegal) way to use the VMG_TT_SRPT table.
[*] W. Under Windows XP, the Windows command TSKill.exe is now used instead of PSKill.exe (which caused false positive warnings of some picky anti-virus programs). However, PSKill is still used when TSKill is not found. (The kill executable is used only by the Burn DVD function to abort the creation of the ISO image when the user clicks on the Cancel button.)

PgcEdit v 7.1 released!
[*] A. Burn DVD: New "Seamless Layer Break" option in the Layer Break selection dialogue, allowing to set the seamless flag of the LB cell. Theoreticaly, the Seamless flag must be clear, but it appear that it is possible to set it in most circumstances. However, this method can be incompatible with some old players, but is used on some commercial DVDs (among others, Sony Superbit DVDs.) A pink warning is displayed in the risky cases. Technical info: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?p=819669#post819669
[*] A. Burn DVD: New option (under Linux and MacOSX only) in the layer break dialogue to modify the IFO files only, without creating the ISO image. This option can be used to burn the DVD files directly with growisofs.
[*] A. New function to recompute the VTS_TMAPTI table (Time Map) of the current Title PGC, or all time maps of the current title domain or of the DVD. This function is called automatically when a time map needs to be modified but can also be called on demand via the "DVD" and "Title" menus to fix bad time maps, or to build the time maps of non-sequential titles.
[*] E. Kill Playback: The first cell command that is normally executed is now included in the pre-commands to minimize the risk of navigation errors (but only if this command is useful and legal in the pre-commands.)
[*] E. PGC Editor's cell list: When a cell command is defined and the seamless joint flag of the next cell is set, the "Layer Break?" checkbox is now highlighted in pink, to warn the user that the cell command is executed only when this seamless flag is clear (ie, layer break checkbox ticked.)
[*] E. When a titleset is present on disc but not referenced at all in the IFOs, it is now possible to move it automatically to a special backup folder. Previously, the user has to do it manually.
[*] E. Improved the VOB desynchronized error check to identify the tiny black cell added by PgcEdit at the end of the VOB files but not referenced in the IFOs. (This situation can happen when the IFOs are not saved by the user after the creation of a new cell.) It is now possible to reuse this cell with the PGC Editor functions "Create new cell" and "Reassign VOB/ Cell ID" with the option to create a new blank VOB cell. Previously, a VOB Desynchronized error message was issued.
[*] E. Burn DVD: The Shutdown Computer option is not remembered any more from session to session. That was too dangreous.
[*] F. After an Import VTST Title, Import FP Clip or Import Title intro/closing clip, the number of BOVs were not initialized correctly, which caused some other functions (notably Clone PGC) to crash.
[*] F. Clone PGC function did not update the TTN internal variables correctly.
[*] F. Trace: A warning is now issued if a cell command exists, but the cell that follow the current cell has its Seamless flag set. The cell command cannot be executed in this case.
[*] F. Blank Out all Title PGCs: The cells table was wrong when this function was applied to a Title domain without VOB files present on HDD.
[*] F. Replace VTST Titles: The streams attributes of the current menu domain were copied from the imported IFO. Now, the table is left untouched.
[*] F. Remove cell in PGC Editor: When removing the last Program, the PG number was kept in the table, and forced to 0. Now, it is correctly removed.
[*] F. Info -> Jumps from VMG to Current VTS: Some menu buttons or BOV commands were wrongly included in the output.
[*] F. Fixed a bug occurring in very rare circumstances: The number of BOVs of the PGC was sometimes wrong after a delete cell from the PGC Editor.
[*] F. Tools configuration didn't work if FixVTS was not used before calling it.
[*] F. When a titleset was removed or imported, the parental management table VMG_PTL_MAIT was not updated.
[*] F. Some minor GUI bugs fixed.
[*] F. The Download Daemon Tools link was dead. Changed to current one.
[*] W. Workaround for a little discrepancy in the faster mkisofs.exe program provided with PgcEdit. This exe doesn't set the error level like the original one, and therefore PgcEdit was unable to discover if it has failed.
DVDShrink plugin v 2.0
[*] A. New function to redo completely from scratch the authoring of a DVD created by DVDShring in reauthor mode.
LU (Language Unit) plugin v 1.1
[*] A. New function to clone the current LU, with a new language code. Useful to translate a still menu to another language.
Enjoy!

Sorry again, there were 2 important bugs in v7.1.
Kill Playback and the Burn function are broken.
Also, this version was incorrectly named v7.0.1.
If you have already downloaded v7.1 (7.0.1) or 7.1.1 (7.0.1.1), please download v7.1.2, which should be the final 7.1.X release.
Sorry for the trouble!

PgcEdit v7.2 released!
[*] E. When the VMGM_VOBU_ADMAP table is present but has 0 entries, the table is now completely removed when the DVD is loaded. Previously, only the empty VMGM_C_ADT, VTSM_C_ADT and VTSM_VOBU_ADMAP tables were removed.
[*] F. Burn DL DVD: When the new advanced option "Modify IFOs only" is ticked and PgcEdit cannot find a suitable cell for the layer break, the GUI was not updated correctly, and it was impossible to close the Burn window.
[*] F. The highlight target feature and the Find Jumps to Nowhere function were unable to mark a JumpTT to an inexistant title as invalid.
[*] F. It was possible to save the DVD or quit PgcEdit when a save operation was already in progress. Now, only File -> Kill can be used during the save.
[*] F. PGC Editor: Remap Vob/Cell ID when using the Create New Cell option was broken in v7.1.
[*] F. The dynamic version of the PgcEdit_preview executable was distributed with v7.x. To work correctly under Linux, the static version is needed.
New plugin: Time Maps plugin v1.0, a function to verify the VTS_TMAPTI tables of all Titles of the DVD, with an option to rebuild the missing or wrong tables automatically when the DVD is saved.
