# ChangeLog for vlc #
#===================#
-HEAD
+0.4.4
+Sun, 11 Aug 2002 01:18:13 +0200
+ * ./src/misc/messages.c: fixed an extremely old buffer overflow.
+ * ./plugins/spudec/spu_decoder.c: fixed a moronic endianness bug.
+ * ./plugins/dvd/dvd.c: added a --dvd-css-method config option to the dvd
+ plugin.
+ * ./include/threads_funcs.h: fixed the --fast-mutex option.
+ * ./plugins/directx/vout_directx.*: the directx vout plugin now uses the
+ IID_IDirectDrawSurface2 interface, this shouldn't break anything and we
+ should now support WinNT4+DirectX3. Added support for YUY2 overlays because
+ a few graphics cards only support this. Some code cleanup too.
+ * ./plugins/directx/vout_events.c: small bugfix.
+ * ./plugins/network/ipv6.c: attempt to fix the win32 IPv6 implementation.
+ Multicast should even work (untested) although we'll need to find a way to
+ replace if_nametoindex() tohave a fully functionnal win32 port.
+ * ./include/threads.h, ./include/threads_funcs.h: reverted Win32 pthread
+ implementation to the old code. Fixed vlc_cond_broadcast() for WinNT/2K/XP.
+ Additional vlc_cond_* implementations for Win9x.
+ * ./src/interface/main.c: renamed --fast_pthread option into --fast-mutex.
+ Added a--win9x-cv-method option to choose which vlc_cond_* implementation
+ we want on Win9x.
+ * ./plugins/avi/avi.c: kludge to play AVI files created by ffmpeg.
+

+0.4.1

+ Vladimir Chernyshov <greengrass@writeme.com>.
+ * ./plugins/dvdread/dvdread.c: disabled the dvdread plugin because it
+ currently sucks.
+ * ./src/misc/configuration.c, ./src/interface/main.c: we now accept --nofoo

+ * ./src/input/mpeg_system.c: in order to make ac3 working in avi file, moved
+ some code from ac3 decoder to mpeg_system.c. (skip 3 bytes is now done in
+ mpeg_system.c and no longer in ac3 audio decoder).
+ * src/misc/netutils.c: tests if message from vlcs begins with 'E:' or 'I:'
+ instead of testing 'E: ' and 'I: ' (to simplify miniVLCS).
+ * ./plugins/avi/avi.c, ./plugins/avi/libioRIFF.c: added more safety tests.
+ * ./include/inpu_ext-dec.h: added a check to fifo->b_die after the call

+0.4.0
+Thu, 23 May 2002 01:27:05 +0200
+
+ * ./plugins/access/http.c: fixed HTTP input under Win32
+ * ./plugins/chroma/i420_yuy2.h: bugfix for the I420 to YUY2 MMX chroma
+ transformations, with the help of Pascal Levesque.
+ * ./plugins/directx/directx.c: UnregisterClass() in MODULE_DEACTIVATE. If
+ we don't do this, trying to use the class when the plugin is reloaded will
+ cause a segfault.
+ * win32: replaced TUpDown components by TCSpinEdit ones, which allow
+ values greater than 32767. It fixes the audio bug ocurring when a
+ configuration file is saved under the win32 interface
+ * ./plugins/win32/mainframe.cpp: Added some extra space between
+ statusbar and toolbar when nothing is displayed.
+ * ./plugins/text/logger.c: on win32 the logger interface shows up a dos
+ command box.
+ * ./plugins/gtk/gnome.c: fixed uninitialized variable
+ * ./plugins/gtk/gtk_playlist.c: simplified GtkRebuildCList()
+ * ./plugins/beos/vout_beos.cpp: changes to reduce segfaults on exit,
+ and also allow only one Playlist window.
+ * ./include/modules_inner.h: fixed a crash when reopening a hidden
+ module
+ * ./plugins/dvd/dvd_access.c: on Win32 the DVD access plugin has to be
+ explicitly requested. This avoids crashes when the input thread tries
+ to open files as dvds.
+ * ./plugins/dvd/dvd_access.c: fixed a side-effect bug causing crashes
+ on DVD title change
+ * ./plugins/chroma/i420_yuy2.c: margin support for the 420 planar to 422
+ packed chroma transformations.
+ * ./src/input/input.c: fixed a bug with the input remaining stuck when no
+ network data was present.
+ * win32: fixed a stupid bug in the Network dialog.
+ * ./src/interface/main.c: fixed a little memleak.
+ * ./src/input/input_dec.c: removed useless code.

+ variables.

+ * ./configure.in: tried to fix the -lavcodec detection.
+ * ./plugins/x11/xcommon.c: fixed x11 and xvideo alternate fullscreen.
+ * ./plugins/network/ipv6.c: experimental support for Windows IPv6
+ * ./plugins/a52/a52.c: added an option to disable the dynamic range
+ compression.
* ./Makefile.opts.in: removed configuration stuff which does not need to
rebuild anything to Makefile.config, so that editing it will not cause
a complete rebuild.
