     V2.2.4.9
         
Added a new page - "Join".
                   It allows joining several files together, using an AVS script. This script is saved in the file and
                   then opened as source by SB. It may help converting avi and wmv files (of course, all files must have
                   exactly the same format). For example, two parts of a DivX movie can be made as one file and then split by SB better.

            Added a new page - "Batch".
                   It allows batch processing of several projects. Every project must be created in advance the regular way.
                   Then, all the projects can be loaded to the batch list and automatically encoded one-by-one.
             Added a volume control, one for all previews. It's position is stored in the ini file.
                   The control appears at the right corner of the toolbar, only when pages with a preview window are shown.
             Added a new option - "Save project on "Start"" - saves the project on the "Start" button click.
                    It can be turned on/off in the "Tools" menu.
             Added support for the new program "DGindex", which can be used instead of "DVD2AVIdg".
                    Now, if you have DGindex, DVD2AVIdg or DVD2AVI and their DLLs are all in "System32", the right DLL
                    will be used depending on the used program's name (set in the "Settings" dialog).
             Added Canopus ProCoder 2 support. Custom templates are supported.


             The project file now contains AVS and XML scripts for each disc.
             Equidistant chapters' settings are stored now in the project file and can be restored as well.
             Custom disc size settings are stored now in the ini and spr files.
             A "CUE" file is now modified after creation - the path/name is replaced by the file name only.
             BIN/CUE files can be moved to another location without CUE editing.
             Script preview should work better now, fluently.
             Encoders handling is improved.

             Few less important changes and bug fixes.

             The User's guide is updated.
