Hello all Nvidia is getting ready to drop non-GLVND libraries. This is my first pass to refactor the SBo scripts and get ready for 15.0 "real soon now." 430.40 mainly adds support for RTX 2080 Super cards and some minor bug fixes. These WILL NOT work on -current, at all, as of yet, since I

All: If one uses Alien Bob's QT5-5.7.1 package, the mlt build defaults to QT4. To use QT5, you need to compile the SBo QT5 with c++11 and then compile mlt with c++11 This was a requirement since mlt-6.6.0 but I never noticed during testing - because I never built with QT5. This is a moot point
