* modules/demux/avi/avi.c: Look a bit further into the file for the avi tag.
  this allows you to play avi in uncompressed .rar (only first part of course).

 is used as a separator), it may or may not work (depend a lot on the
 demux).

  + fixed typo in INPUT_CONTROL_SET_SEEKPOINT_NEXT.
  + a few coding style changes.
* input/var.c:
  + use the descriptive name for titles/chapters if available.

 * sub ->subtitle : converted sub.c to a 'real' demux2.
 * input.c: added basic multi-input support for subtitle.
 * avi, mp4: don't exit anymore when no es selected.

 (becarefull, it's just if you can seek or not, and not if you have to
 display the progress bar, for thet last you have to check if "position"
 value get != 0.0 )
       - added "audio-delay" and "spu-delay" object variables to delay
 audio/spu to the video. They can be changed on the fly (untested).
       - renamed INPUT__GET/SET_SUBDELAY into
 INPUT_SET_SPU_DELAY and added INPUT_SET_AUDIO_DELAY
 (wrapper to "audio-delay" and "spu-delay")
 - readded INPUT_ADD/GET_INFO/INPUT_SET_NAME. Becarefull to not over-use
them, a demuxer should export DEMUX_GET_META and not using them.

 * demux, access: change the prototype of access2_New/demux2_New.
 * control: implemented all INPUT_GET/SET.
 * src/input/*.c: removed old functions, move some of them.
              

time-offset change.

STREAM_CONTROL_ACCESS.
 * all: added previous new commands support.

  the playlist item duration. Now mpeg files will show their duration.

* src/input/input.c: input_StopThread() sets b_die on demux2 as well.

',') where VLC can look for a subtitle file ; typically, ./Subtitles or
./subtitles (the directory in wich the film is located is implicit).

decode it as a url encoded one and we retry.
 (Btw, this will break playing of paths that have '%' and ':' )

 * input: fixed "position" value as soon as possible after a see, this
way the intf doesn't show strange seek bar behavour.

* src/input/input.c:
   + introduced input_item_t that is shared between the playlist/vlm and the input thread (contains input name, options, infos, etc...).
   + changed prototype of input_CreateThread() to input_thread_t *input_CreateThread( vlc_object_t *, input_item_t * ).
* ALL: use input_item_t and INPUT_ADD_INFO when necessary.

 input: fixed uninitialised variable (i_microsecondperframe for subs)

* Allow to modify subtitle delay on the fly and implement hotkeys 
  (h and j)

* When framerate is available with subrip, use sub-fps to make corrections
  (sub-fps default value is now 0, if left to this value, 25fps will be
   assumed in microdvd mode and no correction will be applied in subrip)

Main problem is that when seeking in the subtitles, you easily get
several of them displayed. Maybe we could add a flag to subpicture_t,
like SUBTITLE_PICTURE to say that only one of them must be displayed at
a time, but that other subpictures (OSD, ...) can remain present on the
screen at the same time.

   + new input_Control() function (doesn't do much for now).
   + started bookmarks support through input_Control().
   + new --bookmarks={name=foo,bytes=foo,time=foo},{...} config option.

* src/video_output/*:
   + started support for embeddable vouts (vout_RequestWindow()/vout_ReleaseWindow())
   + new --video-x/y config options

   + added --meta-title/author/artist/genre/copyright/description/date/url config options.
     This allows the user to specify/override metadata information for an input.

* include/vlc_meta.h:
   + vlc_meta_Merge( dest, src ) helper function.

* modules/demux/mp4/*:
   + Fixed a couple of mem-leaks.
   + Support for "description" metadata.

the maximum speed if the output can control the pace)

 start-time and stop-time (both given in second) ;)
 
 Becarefull that it won't work with all files because of missing/wrong
 media length (ex: ts, broken avi, ...) or the fact that the headers
 will not be read (ex: mpeg1 ps, perhaps ogg, ...)

* ALL: changed the prototype of module_Need() to accept a "strict" boolean argument.
If "strict" is true and a module name is provided then module_Need() will only look for the specified module
If "strict" is false, then module_Need() will first look for the specified module and if it wasn't found, will continue with the other modules with the same "capability".

 without destroying/recreating a new input. (Will be usefull for streaming).
 ( A value of -1 means repeat for ever).
 --> Not tested with dvd.
