What's new in this version:

General
- Improved HandBrake pineapple icon by Matt Johnson

Core
- Blu-ray (PGS) subtitle support: works with Foreign Audio Search, can be Burned-In, can be passed through to MKV (but not MP4)

- Allow the selection of lower audio samplerates where appropriate: 8, 11.025, 12, 16 kHz
- Audio dithering (TPDF) when converting to 16-bit FLAC
- Use libavcodec for DTS audio decoding (instead of libdca): DTS-ES 6.1 Discrete support
- All graphical interfaces: support for x264's preset, tune and profile options: alternative to the Advanced panel (which is still available), HandBrake-specific option to ensure compliance with a specific H.264 level
