title/chapter/audio/spu/angle, we tell the input to do intead of doing
it inside the interface. It results in fewer locks during the changes.

*The dvd plugin reads again blocks of 32 sectors to gain speed since
there are no more lock-ups during stream change. I've also created a new
file that contain function to described video and audio streams with ifo
datas.

The changes are made only for gtk. We should update the other interfaces
soon (beos at least).

There is a memory corruption somewhere that make the vlc crash. I've no
idea where to search.

  * 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. Still
    under heavy construction, so don't get too excited at finding bugs
    in it yet.

    Note: this change broke the XVideo module, so I made its score much
    lower than before. I suspect xvideo.so had a bug before which only
    appears now. Other video output plugins may be broken as well, but
    again this might be due to old existing bugs showing their ugly head.

  * 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).
  * Coding style and organization fixes to the spdif decoder.
  * autoconf and Makefile changes by Arnaud Gomes-do-Vale
    <arnaud@carrosse.frmug.org>.

cards: it sends raw ac3 frames to an external ac3 decoder. It is very
experimental yet, hasn't any synchro ... but it works well with my
sblive and my dtt3500 speakers (note that you need a patched emu10k1
driver for this to work).

-bug fix in gnome intf thanks to Shane Harper.

-bug fix in input_dvd for chapter change.

  * Coding style fixes here and there.
  * Miscellaneous QNX compile fixes.
  * Beginning of the mingw32 port by Gildas Bazin <gbazin@netcourrier.com>.
  * Added Marcari and Gildas to the AUTHORS file.

  (I commited the mingw32 port because it doesn't add any new code outside
   the #ifdefs, but we won't tell a word about it for the moment. We don't
   really need windows users whining about bugs, do we ?)

--enable-debug still exists, but only activates -g and additional
safety checks.

I hope I didn't break anything :))

-removed � bug added at my last commit in css code; cleaned CSSGetKey

-various changes and bugfixes in the gnome interface.

*Added checks in dvd_ifo

*Cleanings in gnome interface : the interface should be dependant on the
input method.

change (useful in network mode)

-Change the way ifo are read ; I hope this fixes problems with some
compilers

-Added error checks in dvd input

-Quick kludge in ifo to avoid a bug with optims. The real fix is coming.

-bugfix in input dvd

  * Code cleanup: removed a few tabulations.
  * Fixed inline asm routines to remove all read/write operands.
  * Added <string.h> to most files to prevent warnings under FreeBSD.
  * Added "break;" after "default:" in case switches to prevent
    warnings when compiling with GCC 3.0pre.

seems to have a bug that make the vlc crash on title/audio/spu change. I
hope that this bug will be fixed soon for the performance is poorer now

-add-ons and changes in gnome interface:
        *menu subdivision is done only if there are over 20 items,
        *in DVD mode next/prev apply to title,
        *in DVD mode, added a box with button to navigate through
         chapters.
This has not been finished yet (and it is not in gtk plugin then). And I
think I will leave toolbar next/prev buttons for playlist and add
button specifically for title change like for chapters.*

-New function input_ToggleES for interaction with interface.
-Changes in gnome interface : navigation menus are now splited, there
are radio item in menus and the code should be better.
-First step for dvd_ifo rewritting. Now allocation/disallocation is
being done as it has to be.
-Fixed a bug in title management that make dvd like Seven work.

  * Bug fixes and enhancements in the Gtk+/Gnome interfaces.

   o the slider should behave correctly and stop jumping here and
     there (this bug is _not_ related to Stef's similar bug)
   o added an "open network" menu (useless since the input doesn't
     handle it properly yet)
   o tried to reorganize gnome_callbacks.c and gtk_callbacks.c
   o stream date is now displayed instead of percentage
   o renamed gnome_sys.h to intf_gnome.h, and gtk_sys.h to intf_gtk.h

  * Changed documentation and package creation files.

   o added versioned conflicts/replaces to vlc-gtk (Closes Debian bug #88796)
   o removed useless or outdated documentation from doc/*
   o moved vlc.1 manpage from debian/vlc.1 to doc/vlc.1

  * Added basic Qt interface.

   o working features: slide bar, open file, toolbar, popup menu
   o added "qvlc" alias, equivalent to "vlc -I qt"
   o known issues : no "open disc" or "open network" menus yet
                    the IntfWindow class is never cleaned on destruction
                    the popup menu always pop at the middle of the screen

  * Misc fixes/updates.

   o renamed netutils.h functions from input_* to network_*
   o renamed *plst* files and functions to *playlist* (it was stupid
     from me to name them "plst")
   o made a few input error messages more meaningful
   o added -I, -A and -V short flags, corresponding to --intf, --audio
     and --video

    I got a lot of conflicts on this commit, lart me if I forgot a
  file or made old bugs reappear.

interface.

It is a bit buggy yet, and some pieces of code need to change,
especially to handle better menus change when title change but it
eventually works.

for a long time.

purposes).

found one DVD for which ifo seems false).

-Title and chapter selection on the command line (see -t and -T options)
It will allow to watch some DVD that went through menus by default.

-beginning of menus in gnome interface.

title handling; it is coming :)

 First serie of changes in DVD module for the forthcoming interface menus
 There is a new capability in input type modules for setting the
attributes of a new area. It is set to NULL for PS and TS plugins.
 It should be called for every title change, chapter change,
audio mode change or spu channel change.

But this part of code is not used at the moment, and is not completed
yet.

  GNU/Linux options ;
* Changed fseek() to fseeko() for 64-bit offsets ;
* Reset frame predictors on a stream discontinuity.

  and jump Backward in the SDL intf. Enjoy !

   This commit is a bit early, but it'll save Stef, Henri and me much
 time later, when we don't have to backport modifications to input_*.c

   What's new :
    - playlist works again (still the old wrong way like Meuuh doesn't
    like, but this is going to change within a few hours)
    - input_ps, input_ts and input_dvd are now plugins, located in
    plugins/mpeg/ and plugins/dvd/

   What's broken :
    - audio output might be broken on some streams ; have to investigate

   What has changed :
    - fast/slow keys are now A/Z instead of A/S since S was already
    linked to the scale/noscale toggle.
    - `--dvd' doesn't work anymore, for the moment try to use :
     vlc --input dvd /dev/dvd
    - module bank is now less verbose ; use `--warn 1' to turn back
    verbosity on

* Fixed a bug in the management of the first video PTS.

    The motion compensation routines are now modules as well ; choose your
  implementation with `--motion motion', `--motion motionmmx' or
  `--motion motionmmxext'. Of course, the best implementation is chosen
  if you don't ask for any. There doesn't seem to be any performance hit
  due to the move to shared libs, which is a good thing. Please test
  actively if you have time, though.

    Updated --help result, manpage, INSTALL document, and a few files.

    I moved vdec_motion.h and vpar_blocks.h back to /include because they
  will be needed to build motion compensation modules, but perhaps we don't
  need to export everything which is in these files.

    /src/video_decoder/ now has only one .c file, perhaps it could now be
  merged with video_parser ?

INPUT_PTS_DELAY down to 200 ms ;
video heap down from 10 to 5 pictures ;
decoder fifo size from 1023 to 511 PES ;
* Fixed various bugs in 32 bit-versions of input_ext-dec.h ;
* Fixed a bug in GetChunk() ;
* Renamed GetByte, GetWord, ShowWord to _GetByte, _GetWord, _ShowWord ;
* Moved decoder_fifo-specific code from programs.c to dec.c ;
* Fixed bugs in program.c that prevented vlc to close all decoders ;
* Gave sam a lesson for the use of the bitstream in spu_decoder.c :ppp ;
* Made the video parser unlock the reference pictures before quitting
(still one left, yaknow why ?)

   the last time. henri, that'll be one binouze.

* Move input_ext-dec.h to input.h ;
* New input_NullPacket function ;
* Fixed init bugs in input and vpar ;

 . Added a missing mutex_unlock in video_output.c
 . Moved a mutex_destroy after the thread cancellation to prevent
   possible problems
 . Added a missing #ifdef in intf_msg.c which prevented compilation
   with --enable-debug
 . Fixed a bug in the input that prevented to quit properly in certain
   cases (some ES were not deleted because their index was skipped when
   the former one was deleted, well Meuuh should know what I mean)

  There is still a segfault when quitting, most presumably in the
 audio output. I couldn't find what causes it yet.

 . made the audio_output API a bit simpler.

 . got rid of modules_config.h.

 . fixed `make install' rule.

 . fixed warnings in the MMX YUV compilation.

 . probably fixed a bug in the input : pp_foo structures were free()d at
   the end, but this was useless since the last call to realloc() is
   equivalent to free(), and two consecutive calls to free() aren't a
   goo idea.

 . we check that the version number match and that we don't already have
   a module by that name when loading a new module.

 . all public module_* functions now properly lock the module bank.

 . the audio_output now uses the new module API ; EsounD and DSP modules
   have been ported, which should be enough for Henri to port the ALSA one.


   The new plugin API is now much simpler ; it's now just a matter of
calling module_Need( p_main->p_module_bank, MODULE_CAPABILITY_FOO, p_data );
and if successful we get the best module. Capabilities can be ORed, so that
one can ask for a plugin that does VOUT _and_ INTF actions for instance.

   It's not complete yet though -- by making it generic I had to do a few
ugly casts here and there, which I am going to fix ASAP. Also, command line
selection of a plugin does not work yet.

   The switch to the new plugin API has probably broken the BeOS audio
output ; we can either wait until the whole vlc has switched to the new
plugins, or create a separate beos_sound.so that conforms to the new API.

- Order : if a then b are initialized, release b then a ;
- Typos ;
- Cosmetic changes.

- Added vlc_mutex_destroy and vlc_cond_destroy function, for pthreads.
- Used them before quitting, every lock and cond is destroyed
- Checked the return value of malloc and realloc in input_programs
- Cosmetic changes

TODO: add vlc_*_destroy for beos and C_thread
