I wish I stayed with 1.1.0. Had everything working include PGS and XSUB subtitle support. Then I upgraded. No matter what I do, restore point, registry scrub and reinstall, every version I put on my 32 bit W7 machine crashes as soon as I touch it now. 1.1.0 is still working perfectly on Vista64. Totally bizarre.

If it ain't broke is good advice.
