Build 5522-25 tested - still not as good as 5392

Post by meRobs » Fri Jun 14, 2013 5:39 pm

Since the calling sequence and controlling of decoders and encoders had been improved in this build, I chose to do a complete test, despite stating in a previous Post (viewtopic.php?f=17&t=12660) that I wouldn't bother until there is some evidence that the following bugs have been addressed.
Oh well ....

I tested the x64 version of build 5522 with the results given in the Test Report (viewtopic.php?f=17&t=12306).
It passed all tests except the first part of the "Add Track B" test as well as the "Copy Video" test (see bug 4, below).

In addition there are four bugs, apart from those that my be reported by others:
(1) the blue time-zone bar on the Clipping & Effects window fails on a second use (viewtopic.php?f=28&t=12642)
(2) the "Duration"given for chapters or full Tracks in the source queue are incorrect (viewtopic.php?f=28&t=12625 ) on using Add Track
(3) chapters from a DVD chosen via Add Track had misssing frames (viewtopic.php?f=28&t=12641)
(4) would not Copy video or audio for the conversion VOB to MPEG2 (viewtopic.php?f=28&t=12643)

Thus, for my purposes, there have been more bugs and issues since build 5392, which remains the best of the most recent builds.
Since this is no longer available in Premium form (?!?), I suggest build 5380 for Premium, which is ~as good.

As far as the routine tests are concerned or the bugs reported above, there is nothing in the Changelog (viewtopic.php?f=17&t=6917) to suggest that things have improved in 5525.
