Release Notes: The main new feature is the ability to split large collections of videos into groups that will fit onto DVD5/DVD9 media. Performance should be boosted by some code cleanup and loop streamlining.


Release Notes: This is a release candidate for 0.5.0. It should properly support separation of videos into DVD5/DVD9 sizes. DVD9 is specified with -d/--dual.


Release Notes: This is a release candidate for version 0.5.0. It should support both regular (default) and dual-layer DVDs using the -d/--dual command line option. It should also separate videos into 120/240 minute collections. If no bug reports are received within the week, this will be released as version 0.5.0.


Release Notes: A bug where temporary files were not being deleted has been fixed. The -d/--delete-files option has been changed to --remove-files. An argument for future support for dual-layer DVDs has been added.

To help clarify the version numbers for the last two releases:
0.4.9 is the debug version that is helpful for those who wish to contribute.
0.4.9.1 is the GENERAL USE version that most people will want.

I'm getting very close to releasing version 0.5. I hope to do it sometime this weekend!
I just need to finish the part where it makes a DVD from each 120/240 (depending on whether or not the -d/--dual argument is used) minute directory of downloaded videos.

IF YOU HAVE ALREADY DOWNLOADED 0.4.2 AND IT DID NOT WORK, PLEASE DOWNLOAD IT AGAIN.
I accidentally made the tarball without putting the files into the directory first. Oops!
