# 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.
+

+ * ./plugins/win32/messages.cpp: added a config option to limit the number of
+ messages in the log window (default is set to 500).
+ * ./plugins/mpeg_vdec/vpar_headers.c: don't try to deference a null
+ pointer.
+ * ./plugins/gtk/gnome.c: compilation fix.

+ macros to accept a default value as an argument.
+ * ./src/misc/configuration.c: modified the command line parsing to accept
+ --foo and --no-foo when a "foo" boolean config option is defined.
+ * ./src/interface/main.c: modified the help menu to indicate whether the
+ option is enabled or disabled by default.
+ * ./src/video_output/video_output.c: when the video output hasn't received

+ * ./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()

+ 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.

+ * ./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.
+ * ./plugins/beos/VideoWindow.h, ./plugins/beos/vout_beos.cpp: improved
+ Overlay and Bitmap output modes.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/aout_macosx.m, ./plugins/macosx/aout_macosx.m: removed
+ unused headers.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/intf_controller.[mh]: you can now drag & drop files onto
+ the vlc dock icon. CFBundleDocumentTypes in Info.plist doesn't seem to have
+ any effect, so you'll have to hold down command-option when dropping until
+ this is resolved.
+ * ./src/video_output/video_output.c: removed previous patch to the video
+ output since it causes problems for some people.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/*: worked around a bug in seeking.
+ * ./include/threads_func.h: OS X port now uses real-time threads.
+ * ./configure.in: fixes for ffmpeg and mad.
+ * ./extras/MacOSX/Resources/English.lproj/MainMenu.nib/objects.nib: OS X intf
+ is now more consistent with Apple guidelines.
+ * ./plugins/gtk/gtk_preferences.c: fixed a segfault I introduced lately in
+ gtk_preferences.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/intf_vlc_wrapper.m: don't try to eject unless there is
+ a disc to eject.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/intf_vlc_wrapper.m: fixed a segfault in the Mac OS X
+ interface.
+ * ./plugins/satellite/input_satellite.c: cosmetic changes in error messages.
+ * ./plugins/gtk/*: gtk and gnome interfaces now use frequency and symbol
+ rate default values.
+ * ./BUGS: removed fixed entries.
+ * ./plugins/spudec/spu_decoder.c: initialize p_spudec->p_vout to NULL to
+ prevent segfaults if InitThread does not complete.
+ * ./plugins/text/rc.c: on win32 the rc plugin opens a new console.
+ * ./plugins/filters/*: filters were using memalign but freeing p_data instead
+ of p_data_orig.
+ * ./extras/Win32_msvc/vlc.dsp: updated MSVC++ project.
+ * ./src/interface/main.c: small corrections to the LONGTEXT descriptions in
+ main.c.
+ * ./AUTHORS: a few additions.
+ * ./vlc.spec: updates, courtesy of Yves Duret <yves.duret@mandrakesoft.com>.
+ * ./configure.in: new --with-ffmpeg option for standard installations.
+ * ./src/interface/main.c: updated long descriptions.
+ * ./plugins/dummy/intf_dummy.c: on win32 the dummy interface plugin will
+ open a dos command box. With this fix, vlc should never fail silently and
+ leave a ghost process running in the background when there isn't any
+ working GUI plugin.
+ * ./include/config.h: on win32 DVD/VCD_DEVICE defaults to to D:.
+ * ./src/interface/main.c: added a few *_LONGTEXT descriptions.
+ * ./plugins/mpeg_vdec/video_parser.c: moved the mpeg-motion and mpeg-idct
+ options to the mpeg_vdec plugin.
+ * ./plugins/spudec/spu_decoder.c: mark subpictures destroyed when we end
+ spudec thread.
+ * ./src/audio_output/aout_pcm.c: desperate attempt to improve audio output.
+ * ./doc/vlc-howto.sgml, ./doc/vlc.1, ./README.MacOSX.rtf: updated
+ documentation.
+ * ./INSTALL.win32: updated INSTALL.win32.
+ * ./plguins/directx/vout_directx.c, ./plugins/directx/vout_events.c: a little
+ bit of clean-up in the directx video output plugin
+ * ./plugins/macosx/*: fixed Mac OS X resizing.
+ * ./src/misc/configuration.c: warning levels are no longer additive, patch
+ courtesy of Arnaud de Bossoreille de Ribou <bozo@via.ecp.fr>.
+ * ALL: changed __inline__ with inline (autoconf does the job for us anyway,
+ and mipspro doesn't know about __inline__).
+ * ./src/audio_output/aout_pcm.c, ./src/audio_output/aout_ext-dec.c: fixed
+ deadlock in NextFrame() in aout_pcm.c.
+ * ./plugins/directx/vout_directx.c, ./plugins/directx/vout_events.c: fixed
+ a bug in the directx window creation function. We register a window
+ class once per process so we must be careful not to free the associated
+ resources.
+ * ./extras/Win32_msvc/vlc.dsp: updated the MSVC++ project files and added
+ support for dirent (vlc compiled with msvc can now load plugins - even
+ compiled with mingw).
+ * ALL: small portability fixes.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/*: menu item to maximize the volume in Mac OS X.
+ * ALL: dropped dependancy on autoconf 2.52.
+ * ./plugins/directx/vout_directx.c: modified the directx video plugin to try
+ to create an YUV surface before falling back to an RGB surface when it's
+ not possible to use overlays. Some graphic cards can do the YUV->RGB
+ conversion in hardware during the blitting stage.
+ * ./plugins/directx/vout_directx.c: in the directx video plugin, we now
+ request that the RGB surface be created in video memory. The reasoning
+ behind this is that usually surfaces in video memory benefit from more
+ hardware acceleration (like for instance hw rescaling, hw blitting, etc.).
+ * ./plugins/directx/directx.c: added two options to the directx video plugin
+ to disable the above features (mainly because my video driver is buggy and
+ doesn't handle them well).
+ * ./src/misc/configuration.c: small cosmetic changes to the generation of
+ the config file.
+ * ./src/misc/configuration.c: fix for config_GetHomeDir() on win32.
+ SHGetFolderPath() is located in shfolder.dll not shell32.dll.
+ * ./plugins/gtk/gtk_preferences.c: fix for the gtk preferences dialog box. To
+ be sure that an int or float value is actually changed we call
+ gtk_spin_button_update() in the GtkInt/FloatChanged() event handler.
+ * ./debian/control: made the Build-Depends: entry a one-liner (Closes
+ Debian bug #147103).
+ * ./src/audio_output/aout_spdif.c: a lock was not released.
+ * ./plugins/text/rc.c: added a safety lock.
+ * ./plugins/gtk/*: new Network dialog box for Gtk and Gnome interfaces.
+ * ./plugins/mpeg_system/mpeg_audio.c: you can now force the mpeg_audio demux
+ module.
+ * ./plugins/mpeg_vdec/vpar_headers.c: update reference in case of sequence
+ end code.
+ * ./src/input/input_clock.c: don't keep the control lock during the pause.
+ * ./plugins/ac3_spdif/ac3_spdif.c, ./src/audio_output/aout_spdif.c: check for
+ b_die and b_error in all loops so that we don't remain stuck waiting for
+ data whereas the vlc has tried to quit.
+ * ./src/misc/mtime.c: we use nanosleep whenever possible (patch from Meuuh).
+ * ./plugins/avi/avi.c : it will not segfault with broken avi with an unknown
+ stream.
+ * ./src/misc/mtime.c: removed usage of usleep (not thread safe) (by Meuuh).
+ * ./src/video_output/video_output.c: video output patch to improve handling
+ of late pictures (by Meuuh).
+ * ./src/interface/intf_msg.c, src/interface/intf_playlist.c: disabled
+ calls to realloc(_,0) in a similar way to input_programs.c.
+ * ./plugins/dvd/dvd_seek.c: fix random segfaults on title change (i_cell
+ should be tested _before_ we access the structures).
+ * ./src/input/input_programs.c: fixed memory corruption by setting a few
+ pointers to NULL after they have been free()ed.
+ * ./src/input/input_programs.c: removed now useless ASSERTs.
+ * ./plugins/beos/*: improved overlay and bitmap support, not tested on nVidia
+ cards. Lower CPU usage and no thread created per frame.
+ * ./plugins/dvd/dvd_summary.c: added a sanity check.
+ * ./plugins/vcd/*: vcd access plugin now uses mpeg_ps demux instead of its
+ own one.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/vout_qdview.m: attempt to fix the video output with
+ QuickTime 6.
+ * ./plugins/ac3_adec/ac3_adec.c: probably fixed most "crash when changing
+ audio track" problems by zeroing the p_ac3dec structure.
+ * ./plugins/ac3_adec/ac3_adec.c: fixed a "INPUT_MAX_ALLOCATION reached"
+ crash.
+ * ./src/input/input_dec.c, ./src/input/input_programs.c: check size to avoid
+ realloc(0).
+ * ./plugins/win32/network.*: new Network dialog box.
+ * ./src/input/input.c, ./plugins/access/http.c, ./plugins/access/udp.c: added
+ the input_FDNetworkClose() function to be called when closing a networking
+ stream instead of input_FDClose().
+ * ./src/misc/netutils.c: use closesocket() instead of close() at the end
+ of the network_ChannelJoin() for WIN32.
+ * ./src/misc/configuration.c: fixed an issue with long options from
+ modules where option arguments and playlist entries were mixed.
+ * ./plugins/spudec/spu_decoder.c: fixed endianness issue; subtitles colors
+ should be OK now.
+ * ./plugins/satellite/input_satellite.c: fixed a compilation warning.
+ * ./configure.in: added libdvbpsi version check.
+ * ./include/modules_inner.h: fixed a bug in module reinitialization,
+ which should fix crashes after a long pause.
+ * ./src/input/*: fixed a bug (glitch/segfault) when seeking.
+ * ./src/input/mpeg_system.c: we handle PCR even if they are not attached
+ to a PMT.
+ * ./configure.in: new --with-mad-tree configure option.
+ * ./BUGS: updated BUGS file.
+ * ./src/input/mpeg_system.c: it should now be possible to quit when reading
+ a bogus file.
+ * ./src/misc/iso-639.def, ./include/iso_lang.h, ./src/misc/iso_lang.c:
+ iso-839-[12] tools.
+ * ./plugins/dvd/dvd_es.c, ./plugins/dvd/dvd_summary.c,
+ ./plugins/dvdread/input_dvdread.c: adapted DecodeLanguage calls to the new
+ behaviour.
+ * plugins/mpeg_system/mpeg_ts.c: ISO-639-2 descriptors handling.
+ * ./include/mmx.h, ./plugins/imdct/*: gcc-3.1 compilation fixes courtesy
+ of Yves Duret and other Mandrakesoft guys I don't know.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/intf_vlc_wrapper.m: do not eject when we're reading from
+ the disc...
+ * ./src/misc/modules.c: if a module has a zero-scored capability, we don't
+ try to use it, unless it was explicitely requested (--vout for example).
+ * ./plugins/sdl/vout_sdl.c: fixed an aspect ratio issue (thanks Meuuh).
+ * ./src/input/mpeg_system.c: fixed an old old bug in TS demux, thank you
+ Meuuh.
+ * ./plugins/mpeg_system/mpeg_audio.c: to avoid problem with PS, test only the
+ first 4 bytes for mpeg header so some broken files, and all web radio will
+ not work. You can change this by changing value of MPEGAUDIO_MAXTESTPOS.
+ * ./doc/vlc-howto.sgml: spelling mistakes, small updates, harmonization with
+ other documentations (thank you Alexis).
+ * ./plugins/satellite/*: some fixes in options parsing (thank you Sam).
+ * ./extras/MacOSX/Resources/vlc.icns: new OS X icon, courtesy of Joeri van
+ Dooren <joeri@van.dooren.be>.
+ * ./plugins/mpeg_vdec/video_decoder.c: Mac OS X fix.
+ * ./plugins/mpeg_system/mpeg_audio.c: you should again be able to play PS
+ streams (I hope it will be enough). Sorry.
+ * ./plugins/ffmpeg/ffmpeg.c: CVS version of ffmpeg can now decode
+ msmpeg4 v1 v2, so I added support for this. But you can always use
+ the old ffmpeg library without any problem (I hope ;).
+ * ./include/video.h : added new fourcc codes for avi.
+ * ./plugins/filter/clone.c: New filter, `--filter clone', duplicates
+ display. To duplicate 12 times, use `--filter clone:12'.
+ * ./plugins/x11/xcommon.c, ./plugins/x11/xvideo.c: --xvideo-chroma flag to
+ force the XVimage format used.
+ * ./plugins/text/ncurses.c: ncurses interface improvements by Thomas Graf.
+ * ./plugins/mpeg_system/mpeg_audio.c: we don't use any more U32_AT.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/*: disabled auto-hiding of mouse cursor since it doesn't
+ work when browsing menus; instead, click in the video window
+ * ./plugins/macosx/*: fixed a major bug in the spu decoder.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/*: Objective-C files are now .m.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/*: fixed menus.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/*: menus for Program/Title/Chapter/Languages.
+ * ./plugins/avi/avi.c: we use input_ClockManageRef to do synchro.
+ * ./include/common.h, ./include/input_ext-plugins.h: exported
+ input_ClockGetTS for plugins.
+ * ./plugins/mpeg_system/mpeg_audio.c: a demux for mpeg audio stream (file,
+ web radio ...)
+ * ./src/interface/main.c: if Ctrl-C doesn't kill vlc cleanly for any
+ reason, user just needs to hit Ctrl-C again 1 second later and we'll
+ exit disgustingly instead of freezing.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/intf_vlc_wrapper.c: menu code fixes.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/*: fixed Mac OS X VOUT_SIZE_CHANGE signal.
+ * ./plugins/ffmpeg/ffmpeg.c: corrected some bad lock/unlock.
+ * ./plugins/avi/avi.c: can now use --novideo.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/*: improvements of the OS X GUI.
+ * ./plugins/mad/*: added mad plugin downscale config option for selecting
+ downscaling routine. Choices are: fast, mpg321. Default the fast version
+ is used. The downscale option mpg321 uses an algorithm that adapts to
+ dither errors. This routine is borrowed from MPG321 code.
+ * ./plugins/mad/*.c: mono audio streams get now duplicated on the right
+ channel instead of silencing the right channel (untested).
+ * ./plugins/avi/avi.c, ./plugins/ffmpeg/ffmpeg.c: improvements.
+ * ./src/video_output/video_output.c: video plugins that don't handle
+ rescaling themselves have to let the video_output thread know about
+ resizing events (with VOUT_SIZE_CHANGE event). (this part needs some
+ clean-up but it is basically working for the X11 and SDL plugins).
+ * ./plugins/sdl/vout_sdl.c: fixed fullscreen for the SDL plugin.
+ * ./plugins/sdl/vout_sdl.c, ./plugins/mga/xmga.c: xmga and sdl now switch to
+ fullscreen on double-click.
+ * ./plugins/avi/avi.c: try to not freeze when reaching end file.
+ * ./plugins/x11/xcommon.c, ./src/video_output.c: fixed the resizing and
+ scaling of the X11 video output.
+ * ./plugins/x11/xcommon.c: clicking on the video doesn't pause it anymore
+ (use spacebar for this), but double-clicking will now switch between
+ fullscreen and window mode.
+ * ./plugins/gtk/gtk_preferences.c: the Apply button in the preferences menu
+ is grayed out unless there's a change to apply.
+ * ./plugins/gtk/gtk_preferences.c: GtkConfigApply() now clears the list of
+ config changes before returning.
+ * ./plugins/network/ipv4.c: fixed ipv4.so compilation under QNX.
+ * ./configure.in: deactivated ipv6.so under QNX for now.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/aout_macosx.c: more stable audio output with more output
+ buffering.
+ * ./BUGS: no text in the status bar with gtk intf, no window title in gtk
+ intf on some machines, correct title on another.
+ * ./plugins/gtk/*.glade, ./plugins/gtk/*_interface.*: fix for interface
+ autoshrink when toolbar text isn't displayed.
+ * ./plugins/gtk/gnome.c, ./plugins/gtk/gtk.c, ./plugins/gtk/gtk_display.*:
+ callbacks for the hide tooltips and toolbar text options.
+ * ./plugins/mad/*: aout fifo adapts it size according to the length of the
+ first frame. The change is needed for MPEG1/2 layer III, because the size
+ of output pcm from mad_decoder is different.
+ * ./include/modules_inner.h, ./src/misc/configuration.c: support for config
+ options callbacks.
+ * ./configure.in: we check support for variadic macros (screw Borland!).
+ * ./plugins/gtk/gnome.c: new option lets you hide the text of the
+ GNOME interface toolbar.
+ * ./FAQ: small FAQ update. Please note that everyone can update this FAQ if
+ they want, it is not my property :-).
+ * ./AUTHORS: added quite a few missing names.
+ * ./plugins/qnx/vout_qnx.c: port of the QNX vout plugin to the vout4 API,
+ courtesy of Pascal Levesque <Pascal.Levesque@mindready.com>.
+ * ./plugins/avi/avi.c: you can now use slow and fast reading. After seeking,
+ audio and video synchro is better.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/aout_macosx.c: misc sound fixes.
+ * ./configure.in: fixed VCD double detection.
+ * ./src/misc/configuration.c, ./plugins/text/logger.c: the configuration file
+ and the log file are opened in text mode. This mode should only have a
+ meaning on Win32 and isn't supposed to break any other platform. If does
+ give you any trouble then shout.
+ * ./configure.in: added a --with-a52-tree option to the configure script.
+ * ./plugins/spudec/spu_decoder.c: FOURCC_YUY2 subtitles support (for NVidia
+ overlay) courtesy of Rudolf Cornelissen <rag.cornelissen@inter.nl.net>.
+ * ./plugins/kde/*: configuration dialog for the KDE interface, courtesy
+ of Sigmund Augdal <sigmunau@stud.ntnu.no>.
+ * ./plugins/chroma/i420_yuy2.h: workaround for yet another annoying gcc
+ behaviour with inline assembly (seems to be BeOS-specific). If anyone has
+ a better idea than the huge "memory" constraint, please have a look at
+ the MMX_CALL() macro!
+ * ./plugins/avi/avi.c: corrected a bug with broken avi files.
+ * ./src/misc/modules_plugin.h: added config_Get/PutFloatVariable to
+ p_sysmbols. Thanks to Sigmund Augdal for pointing this bug out.
+ * ./src/audio_output/aout_pcm.c: on Win32 the aout_pcm thread is given a high
+ priority. This avoids lots of audio underruns, especially when moving
+ around the video window.
+ * plugins/avi/avi.c : changed in order to read more avi files, Meuuh
+ you can now read your file ;) (but audio is awful, perhaps because of mad
+ plugin ?). Fix a bug for audio with some avi files.
+ * ./plugins/satellite/satellite.c: fixed a compilation issue in satellite
+ input. It now uses common or libdvbpsi ts demux. Untested cause I can't
+ get our Nova Card work again.
+ * ./src/video_output/vout_pictures.c: restored vout_CopyPicture(). It is
+ needed by the directx plugin damnit ;-)
+ * ./include/config.h: restored AOUT_BUFFER_DURATION to its old value. It
+ should solve quite a few underrun problems.
+ * ./plugins/directx/vout_directx.c: a little bit of DirectX plugin clean-up.
+ * ./ipkg/control: added more information in ipkg control file.
+ * ./include/modules_inner.h: the module name is now a default shortcut, for
+ it, no need to manually add it.
+ * ./plugins/sdl/vout_sdl.c, ./plugins/x11/xcommon.c: when in fullscreen
+ mode, the Esc key does not quit immediately, but first escapes from
+ fullscreen mode. User-requested feature.
+ * ./include/os_specific.h: fixed a C++ compilation issue.
+ * ./include/videolan/vlc.h: removed the main() declaration because SDL
+ defines it as a macro.
+ * ./plugins/avi/avi.c: with some broken avi files, will not freeze, and
+ try to detect end of file.
+ * ./include/threads_func.h: moved the function definitions from threads.h
+ into threads_funcs.h. This allows us to move p_main_sys into p_main
+ (p_main->p_sys).
+ * ./configure.in: fixed the --with-gtk-config-path and --with-sdl-config-path
+ options.
+ * ./plugins/avi/avi.c: seek is faster.
+ * ./configure.in: fixed a typo in libdvbpsi handling.
+ * ./plugins/vcd/cdrom_tools: FreeBSD 4.5 port of the vcd input.
+ * ./INSTALL.win32: updated win32 compilation instructions.
+ * ./plugins/mpeg_system/mpeg_ts.c: fixed --program option.
+ * ./include/common.h: fixed vlc_memalign.
+ * ./plugins/avi/avi.c: now it can play broken files with seek enabled but
+ it's very slow (will be fixed soon).
+ * ./src/misc/beos_specific.c: added system_Configure(). Sorry O:-)
+ * ./src/input/input_programs.c: a video divx ES will no longer be considered
+ as an audio ES (thanks sam).
+ * ./src/misc/darwin_specific.c: added system_Configure().
+ * ./plugins/macosx/vout_macosx.c: cleaned up QTScaleMatrix().
+ * ./plugins/macosx/*: A/V sync should be much more precise.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/vout_qdview.c: borders in fullscreen mode are now black
+ and the movie is centered.
+ * ./extras/MacOSX/vlc.pbproj/project.pbxproj: new creator ID: VLC#.
+ * ./src/misc/modules_plugin.h: exported input_ClockManageRef for fenrir.
+ * ./include/video.h: moved vout_CopyPicture out of the way, an inline
+ function did not make sense here.
+ * ./include/video.h: moved vout_ChromaCmp out of the way.
+ * ./plugins/avi/fourcc.h, ./include/video.h: merged these two files into
+ video.h.
+ * ./include/os_specific.h: this file is now always included.
+ * ./include/debug.h: removed this file which was almost useless, and moved
+ ASSERT to common.h.
+ * ./include/common.h: fixed vlc_memalign and changed its prototype to
+ follow posix_memalign's.
+ * ./configure.in: dropped usage of $withval and $enableval in favor of the
+ safer variants $with_foo and $enable_foo.
+ * ./plugins/avi/avi.c: will not segfault when no audio is found/supported.
+ * ./plugins/ffmpeg/ffmpeg.c: with empty frame(data_packet) it won't segfault.
+ * ./plugins/avi/avi.c: use KeyFrame to seek, so video will not be bad as
+ before.
+ * ./plugins/mpeg_system/mpeg_ts.c: moved Program Specific Information
+ decoder to the ts demux module.
+ * ./plugins/mpeg_system/Makefile: added a mpeg_ts_dvbpsi module tha uses
+ libdvbpsi to decode PSIs. It is used by default if the lib is found. It
+ shares much code with mpeg_ts.
+ * ./plugins/directx/vout_events.c: fixed typo. You have to double click on
+ the video window to switch to fullscreen.
+ * ./src/misc/configuration.c: on Win32 the config file is now stored under
+ the "Application Data" folder belonging to the user. (this works if at
+ least IE4 is installed, otherwise the old method is used to get the
+ config directory)
+ * ./configure.in: fixed MacOS X module linking problem.
+ * ./src/interface/main.c: we no longer segfault if argc == 0.
+ * ALL: renamed PLUGINS to __PLUGINS__ to avoid conflicts with libraries
+ defining it. Grmbl.
+ * ./src/input/input_ext-plugins.c: cosmetic change.
+ * ./plugins/ac3_adec/*: use of _M to avoid conflict with libavcodec.a.
+ * ./plugins/avi/*: a light AVI demux.
+ * ./plugins/ffmpeg/*: a video decoder for divx v3 and opendivx.
+ * ./plugins/win32/preferences.cpp: fixed a compilation bug
+ * ./plugins/avi, ./plugins/ffmpeg: created empty directories for fenrir's
+ upcoming work.
+ * ./plugins/spudec/spu_decoder.c: fixed the spu decoder to take the pitch
+ of the destination picture into account when rendering the subtitles
+ (Implemented only for the YUV modes).
+ * ./plugins/directx/vout_events.c: fixed the mouse autohidding feature in
+ the DirectX plugin (at least partially).
+ * ./plugins/directx/vout_directx.c: fixed the DirectX video output for
+ non-overlay modes. It was only working in RGB16 before.
+ * ./plugins/directx/vout_directx.c: DirectX video output plugin now uses
+ triple buffering for YUV overlay. This improves the video quality a lot
+ (no tearing) without affecting performance. (I knew double buffering
+ sucked but I just discovered why triple buffering is better: you don't
+ have to wait for the vsync to flip the buffers).
+ * ./plugins/spudec/spu_decoder.c, ./plugins/dvd/dvd_es.c: temporary fix
+ to avoid retrieving the spu palette from a network stream as if it was
+ a DVD.
+ * ./src/interface/main.c: tidied the help output code.
+ * ALL: removed underscores from option names and made a few options more
+ self-explanatory, for instance --input_channel becomes --audio-channel;
+ run vlc -H to see what has changed.
+ * ALL: replaced many occurences of "plugin" with the word "module".
+ * ./src/interface/main.c: moved all satellite-specific configuration options
+ to the satellite plugin.
+ * ./po/*: updated translations.
+ * ./plugins/chroma/i420_yuy2.h: optimized the 420 planar-to-packed chroma
+ transformations. They're now PIC-friendly as well.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/intf_open.c: added Open disc and network panels.
+ * ./plugins/macosx/intf_controller.c: some changes to the control layout.
+ * ./src/interface/main.c: i_warning_level is set to 0 to avoid unwanted
+ verbose messages.
+ * ./po/en_GB.po: British translation.
+ * ./src/interface/main.c, ./src/misc/configuration.c: fixed the warning_level
+ handling: "-v" and "--warning" are now working as they should and they also
+ are cumulative (using -vv --warning=3 you end up with i_warning_level=5).
+ * ./src/misc/configuration.c: support for short options. -V, -A, -I
+ are back, and we also have -4 and -6 for IPv4/IPv6.
+ * ./src/misc/configuration.c: added config_GetFloatVariable() and
+ config_PutFloatVariable() to the config module.
+ * ./src/video_output/video_output.c: added a --zoom <float> config option.
+ * ./plugins/idct/idct_sparse.c: added a call to RestoreCPUState() in
+ InitIDCT() so that the FPU is still available after a call to InitIDCT().
+ * ./plugins/text/logger.c: deactivated stream buffering when logging to a
+ file.
+ * ./po/*: re-ran make update-po, fixed a few translations.
+ * ./po/fr.po: completed the french translation.
+ * ./plugins/gtk/gtk.glade, ./plugins/gtk/gnome.glade: synchronized a few
+ strings between the Gtk+ and GNOME modules to avoid duplicate translations.
+ * ./po/de.po: updated german translation. Many thanks to Thomas Graf.
+ * ./doc/vlc-howto.sgml: URL & mailing-lists corrections.
+ * ./plugins/gtk/gtk_preferences.c: the last category from the config options
+ wasn't displayed.
+ * po/nl.po: updated Netherlands translation of interface.
+ * po/fr.po: completed french translations.
+ * ALL: internationalized all configuration strings.
+ * ./src/interface/main.c: we now set LC_CTYPE to get the right charset.
+ * ./src/misc/configuration.c: lots of simplifications in the code.
+ * ./po/vlc/pot: updated translations.
+

+ black instead of white, PLEASE drop me a mail!
+ * ./src/input/mpeg_system.c: in TS demux, a program is selected only if a
+ PMT for it was found. This should fix the problem that occured when reading
+ a file directly extracted from a satellite card.
