-bug #09/11/2001-1: (FIXED 20/11/2001, by JP Saman)
- Makefile.opts.in and Makefile.opts static libmad.a library is not filled in automatically by configure.
- It should say in Makefile.opts LIB_MAD=lib/libmad.a
-
-bug #09/11/2001-2: (FIXED december 2001)
- Libmad is not included in the vlc source code. It is assumed that the library is already available on the machine
- where the plugin is compiled on. The configure option --with-libmad tells the script where libmad.a or libmad.so library
- and mad.h include file are installed. E.g. if libmad.a is in /usr/lib and mad.h is in /usr/include then the configure
- option should be --with-libmad=/usr
-
-bug #12/11/2001-1 (FIXED january 2002)
- smoothen out audio in libmad_output callback function, by optimizing conversion routines. After investigation
- and experimenting I found out that my input routine and output routine were not balanced correctly with
- respect to buffer sizes. A lot of data got lost. I fixed that, but still need a bater scaling/smoothing routine
- for the audio.
- I tried a simpler audio scale function, but it did not improve the audio much. Not even on Intel machine, so I suspect the audio
- decoding to need a bit too much time. The next thing to try is to steer the decoding process by hand (going to a lower level API).
- Rewriting mad plugin to use a lower level API was not needed. I found the problem by reviewing libmad example code madlld and bbplay.
- This resulted in a partial rewrite a some parts and a lot of testing. There are still some issues when trying on different CPU's
- but this will sort itself gradually.

-bug #20/11/2001-1 (FIXED 25/11/2001, by JP Saman)
- synchronization between audio and video output is lost. In libmad_output a timestamp is set on the audio data, but
- it points to a later video frame, then when the audio data was read. How can I set the correct timestamp on the
- audio fifo at the time it was read from the bitstream, so that it matches the video frame it belongs to?
- Solution: Do it in two steps, in the input function save i_pts of fifo and in output function pass saved i_pts to
- aout_fifo.

-TODO: (Jean-Paul Saman <jpsaman@wxs.nl>)
-
-[1 - 30 October 2001, done]
-introduce libmad in vlc-dev code tree, this includes:
- configure from top level of source tree
- compilable from top level of source tree
-
-[2 - 25 November 2001, done]
-creating basic mad plugin in vlc-dev code tree, this include:
- writing most simple vlc-plugin (no fancy stuf)
- configurable from top level of source tree
- compilable from top level of source tree
-
-[3 - 25 November 2001, done]
-test basic mad plugin
- native Intel
- native iPaq
-
-[4 - 26 November 2001, done]
-commit to current vlc-dev tree in CVS at VideoLan
- fix broken things and conflicts
- run tests again (see [3])
-
-[5 - all ready done by Christophe Massiot]
-make cross-compile possible for vlc without interface. With interface it is to damn difficult to do cross-compilation.
-
-[6 - done by fenrir ]
-extending mad plugin with more features
- do fancy stuff (enable MP3 decoding)
-
-[7 - done ]
-test extended plugin
- native Intel
- native iPaq
