DVD ReBuilder 0.84

Changes made to 0.84:

Implemented new procedures to prevent unreported overflow errors that are occurring in CCE version 2.70 (both SP and Basic) from causing undersized builds (with frames missing). Tweaked several parameters that make the overflow less likely to happen, and also inplemented a segment frame count verification in the REBUILD phase to flag it should it somehow again happen.
Added code that does a checksum verification of the source directory which is now used in the ENCODE and REBUILD phases. There have been several reported errors that were caused by attempting to encode or rebuild against a different source than was mounted at the time of PREPARE.
Made several changes related to how DVD-RB handles sources that have a width of 704 pixels. While these are very uncommon, they are within the DVD standard. There should be no more problems with reencoding these sources.
Changed the mechanism for setting maximum bitrate for VBR encodes. The previous method was overly aggressive and could cause rates that are too low that might force buffer overflows in CCE.
