+
+ * Changed libdvdcss API to force binary incompatibility. Yeah, this is
+ evil, but if we don't do it now we'll have to do it when more people
+ are using it.
+ * Fixed minor libdvdcss stuff such as the soname and compilation flags.
+ * New --with-dvdcss flag.
+ * Fixed a bug in aout spdif with dolby stereo (use of obsolete PTS).
+ * Format asm functions for gcc, fixed the segfaults with imdct_sse.
+ * Now using gcc -pipe.
+ * (Hopefully) fixed the #@!$ field pictures bug.
+ * Fixed the MMX YUV plugin issues with gcc 2.96 and 3.0.
+ * Updated TODO, cosmetic changes.
+ * Now use sdl-config for SDL.
+ * Fixed a stupid bug in buffer management with field pictures.
+ * Fixed a reinit bug after a discontinuity - such as seek().
+ * The spdif audio output won't kill itself anymore at the beginning.
+ * dvdcss_readv() optimisations for Win32.
+ * Fixed _win32_dvdcss_aread() to work around the WinASPI32 64kb transfer
+ size restriction.
+ * New and theoretically better Win32 pthread implementation.
+ * dvd_ifo.c now takes into account error messages from UDFFindFile.
+ * Fixed the "quit" event handling in directx/vout_events.c.
+ * Temporarily disabled aout_Probe() in aout_SDL (libSDL bug).
+ * ncurses compilation fix by Michael Mondragon <mammon@lokmail.net>.
+ * Fix for large inline functions and gcc 3.0.
+ * Fixed the gnome plugin so that it does not include gtk headers.
+ * libdvdcss segfault fixes.
+ * Tuned constants, since it seems to make people happy.
+ * Fixed the "paused movie won't restart" bug.
+ * Removed the outdated generic decoder.
+ * Rewrote the video decoder so that it can use multiple processors (--smp).
+ * Fixed a bug in the video decoder initialization.
+ * Grayscale mode now turns off chroma IDCT decoding.
+ * Kludged so that times displayed in the scrollbar are finally correct
+ for MPEG-2 streams.
+ * FreeBSD compilation fix by Øyvind Kolbu <oyvindk@world-online.no>.
+ * QNX RTOS plug-in by Jon Lech Johansen <jon-vl@nanocrew.net>.
+ * Added IDEALX developer documentation in doc/.
+ * Reactivated SDL parachute in non-debug mode (memory leak otherwise).
+ * Fixed GetChunk for chunks < 4 bytes.
+ * The Win98 DVD input is finally working.
+ * Fixed 2 Win32 bugs in libdvdcss (in _win32_dvdcss_readv), one of them
+ should have prevented the Win9x dvd input from working.
+ * Moved the "if(Win2k)" out of the loop in _win32_dvdcss_readv.
+ * Put a readv() function in input_iovec.h, the input_es plugin now compiles
+ (Win32).
+ * Modified input_ts to use readv() in input_iovec.h (Win32).
+ * Fixed an initialisation bug in vout_directx.c.
+ * Right clicking on the mouse displays the navigation menu (DirectX plugin).
+ * Fixed audio/video synchro bug with esd, should fix buggy sound due
+ to 44100-48000 Hz conversions.
+ * The Win32 GetMessage function has been isolated in a thread. This has
+ been done because this function can block the thread. Thanks to this
+ change, you can now move your window without any video and audio
+ interruption.
+ * libdvdcss enhancements by Billy Biggs <vektor@dumbterm.net>. This breaks
+ vlc's DVD input (looks like decoders are expecting data too early and
+ DVD input can't cope with it due to decryption). Needs to be investigated.
+ * Plugins are now compiled in plugins/* and libraries in lib/*.
+ * The KDE UI compiles again but does not work yet.
+ * ALSA plugin message corrections.
+ * Calculation modules can now be calledwith a shorter name
+ (eg. '--downmix mmx' instead of '--downmix downmixmmx').
+ * Fixed insane verbosity of the SDL plugin.
+ * Fixed the segfault in vout_UnloadFont.
+ * The Xvideo plugin now closes the video window when it XVideoGetPort
+ fails in vout_Create.
+ * Fixed alignement in imdct asm functions.
+ * 16 byte alignement for data (needed for SSE).
+ * Optimization in SSE downmix.
+ * Removed unnecessary translations in the win32 code from block offsets to
+ byte offsets. This was overflowing some variables.
+ * Reduced the complexity of the Win9x ASPI functions because we only need
+ to handle DVD drive access.
+ * Win32 code now handles seeking in areas above 2.1 Go on DVDs.
+ * Probably fixed the "X eats more and more CPU" bug. Please test.
+ * mingw32 cross-compilation issue fixed.
+ * Small optimization in vpar_blocks.c, sparing a few memset() calls.
+ * Additional error checking in vout_sdl.c.
+ * Minor manpage fix, conforming to Debian policy version 3.5.5.0
+ (Closes Debian bug #99561).
+ * Portablility fix: We now control the name to be used in the assembler
+ code for a C function or variable.
+ * Reenabled all the accelerated modules on Win32.
+ * Bugfix for chapters change in DVD.
+ * A few bug fixes for the directx plugin.
+ * Removed the custom usleep function for win32 as we don't really need
+ this accuracy, and it was eating cpu resources.
+ * Elementary Stream input plugin (use it with --input es). Only works with
+ video streams at the moment.
+ * Added command line option '--stdout <filename>' which redirects stdout
+ and stderr to the specified file. This option should mainly be useful
+ on Win32.
+ * On Win32, vlc now has an icon associated to the .exe file, and is a full
+ GUI application (you don't have this annoying dos command box anymore)
+ * Added INSTALL-win32.txt for specific details to the Win32 port.
+ * Compile fix for newer versions of MacOS X by Colin Simmonds
+ <colin_simmonds@Mac.lover.org>.
+ * Additional MacOS X DVD ioctl work by Eugenio Jarosiewicz
+ <ej0@cise.ufl.edu>.
+ * Win32 network support by Boris Dorès <babal@via.ecp.fr>.
+ * Fixed an alignment issue in the ifo parser. The Matrix problem should
+ be solved.
+ * Minor cosmetic fixes and warning removals here and there.
+ * FreeBSD (and probably QNX) shared memory handling fix.
+ * First libdvdcss version (0.0.1).
+ * Unrolled two loops in dvd_netlist.c to prevent message flooding.
+ * DVD input stuttering fix by Jon Lech Johansen.
+ * Removed a lock that caused late frames in DVDRead.
+ * Added gprof profiling support with --enable-profiling.
+ * Fully working Windows DVD ioctl support by Jon Lech Johansen.
+ * DirectX enhancements by Gildas Bazin, such as software rendering.
+ * Merged dvdcss_init and dvdcss_open into dvdcss_open, and dvdcss_close
+ and dvdcss_end into dvdcss_close. libdvdcss API now has 7 functions.
+ * Another failed attempt at profiling vlc under Linux: ported the
+ threads API to GNU Pth. Activate with --enable-pth. It doesn't seem to
+ spawn new threads for me, maybe someone will have better luck.
+ * Makefile optimizations.
+ * Automatic build of libdvdcss if not found.
+ * The DVD netlist no longer stops when the fifo is empty ; it just waits
+ until there are free vectors again.
+ * Exported the CSS part of the dvd plugin into a library.
+ * Slight modification in input_dvd since Getiovec wasn't at the right place.
+ * Send escape packet when changing title, not to be stuck in some decoder.
+ * The position in the title is now reset when we change title to
+ prevent a title from being unavailable because we're stuck at the end.
+ * Fixed a bug with 1-chapter-long titles that displayed chapter 0.
+ * Added a _temporary_ field in p_main to know whether the audio stream is
+ AC3 (ugly). It allows a vlc launched in spdif mode to play mpeg or lpcm
+ audio.
+ * Cleaned the title property messages to get rid of the ugly stars.
+ * Added LPCM support. It should work with stereo LPCM.
+ * Fixed a warning when compiling main.c.
+ * Checked that OS supports SSE instructions on PIIIs (to avoid illegal
+ hardware instructions on Linux 2.2.x).
+ * Fixed a bug in synchro reinitialization: we no longer have a shift each
+ time we restart the synchro (for SCR discontinuity for instance)
+ * In DVD mode, we reinit the synchro only if the SCR are not continuous
+ (instead of each cell).
+ * Tried to improve AC3 spdif to prevent desynchronization.
+ * Lots of DirectX plugin fixes by Gildas Bazin.
+ * Compilation fix in message queue mode.
+ * Another FreeBSD compilation fix.
+ * SDL compilation fix for FreeBSD.
+ * Fixed compilation of motion modules as plugins.
+ * Applied old FreeBSD patch for dvd input by German Tischler.
+ * Found what was causing the slowdowns: a namespace collision. Put all
+ plugins into builtins again.
+ * Put most builtins in plugins again due to performances issues.
+ * Fixed the painfully slow build process (at last!).
+ * Added new dummy input plugin.

+ existing idct modules (Closes: Debian bug #96036).
+ * KDE interface.
+ * FreeBSD CSS decryption support.
+ * Fixed a segfault in TS input (psi packets with adaptation field).
+ * Corrected vlc-howto.sgml thanks to Arnaud Gomes-do-Vale
+ <arnaud@carrosse.frmug.org>.
+ * Fixed a remaining buffer overflow in the Gnome interface and applied
+ the patches to the Gtk+ interface.
+ * Fixed a segfault in the SPU decoder initialization.
+ * Mandatory step for video output IV and the audio output quality
+ fix: the output threads are now spawned when a decoder needs one,
+ so it can decide the audio frequency or the video window size.
+ * Fixed a few buffer overflows in the Gnome interface.
+ * The module bank is now a global variable. The video output bank and
+ the audio output bank might follow (when they exist).
