What may be broken (untested):
------------------------------
   - Theora and Speex decoders
   - some interfaces
   - VCDX and CDDAX access

The problems shouldn't hopefully excess compilation glitches.
(removal of AddExt, of psz_author, and prototype of Add)

Additionnaly, interfaces that do not support item-change will have
update problems.

* Updated modules list

* modules/demux/mp4/mp4.c: fixed problem with buggy files that don't set the audio sample rate properly.

* modules/codec/ffmpeg/video.c: respect aspect ratio given by demux if any.

* modules/demux/*: some containers don't carry any PTS information, just a DTS. In that case, make sure the PTS forwarded to the decoder is set to 0.
* modules/codec/ffmpeg/video.c: use PTS if available, if not find out the PTS from the DTS and the p_context->has_b_frames and p_pic->reference flags.

* modules/demux/mp4/*: Added support for the "wave" tag used in mov files with aac.

 * mp4: send complete atom for amr to the decoder.

 the playlist.  but use FIND_PARENT. vlc_object_find  with FIND_ANYWHERE
 use p_obj->p_vlc as a starting point  and that doesn't work as playlist
 is  detach from  vlc before  vout is  destroyed by  the decoders  (when
 shutting down)  Perhaps vlc_object_find  should be  fixing to  find the
 root object, but I'm not sure.

 * src/input/*  : move  subtitle handling  from avi  to input.  Now subs
 should works with all file types _BUT_ won't be in synch if the demuxer
 doesn't implement a _precise_ DEMUX_GET_TIME.  So only .avi, .mp4 will
 be ok. Others could works if perfectly cbr.
  Now  Subtitle  track is  only  selected  when specified  by  sub-file
 option.(auto-dectected file is always added but not selected by default)
  Btw, the code could support multiple  subs files, but I don't know how
 to pass multiple filenames, any ideas ?


 * demux/mpeg/mpga.c : play with es_out_t. I'm investigating for now so
 don't use that elsewhere.

 * modules/demux/* : use the stream_t from input_thread_t.
 * include/ninput.h : begin to add new way to register es. (unused for now).
 (in the long term I want to split input_thread_t and intoduce demux_t and
 access_t and perhaps something like access_demux_t)

 is a generic handler)
 * avi, mp4 : begin to implement a specific pf_demux_control.

* ALL: changes to the playlist_Add() and VLC_AddTarget() proto to include a list of options associated with the input.
* src/input/input.c: parses the input options list before spawning the input and create object variables for these options. Options are of the form "[no[-]]foo[=bar]" where foo is the option name and bar is its value.
* src/input/input.c, src/input/input_dec.c: use the object var api to get the value of the "sout", "sout-video" and "sout-audio" options.
* src/libvlc.c: extended the command line parser to parse input options. Input options must always follow the input they apply to and begin with a ':'.

All these changes allow you to specify input specific options.
eg: ./vlc --no-sout-audio yourvideo.mpeg :sout=udp/http::8080 :sout-audio yourvideo2.mpeg
Here the ":sout" option will only apply to yourvideo.mpeg.
"--no-sout-audio" will be a global option so will apply to yourvideo2.mpeg but the global behaviour is overriden by ":sout-audio" for yourvideo.mpeg.

TODO: - the interfaces need to be modified to benefit from the new playlist_Add() api.
      - only "sout", "sout-video", "sout-audio" implemented for now. To make it work with other options, we need to get rid of all the config_GetFoo() and replace them with var_Create()/var_Change()/var_Get().

* modules/demux/mp4/mp4.c: added SVQ1 for the quicktime decoder.
* modules/gui/macosx/macosx.m: typo
* modules/gui/macosx/prefs.m: fix of the module selectors.
* po/nl.po: i've taken a head start on the translations.
* src/libvlc.h: removed unused string RT_PRIORITY_TEXT

* src/libvlc.h: fixed spelling mistake.
* modules/gui/wxwindows/preferences.cpp: allow negative numbers in spinctrls.
* modules/demux/asf,avi,mp4: use p_input->stream.control.b_mute.

have found.

at free box content to see if it could be moov box, I hope there won't be
any misdetection. (Even when there is a spec, nobody follows it :((

* ALL: changed the prototype of input_AddES() to include enough information so we can build an "video-es", "audio-es" and "spu-es" object variable. These variables can be used by the interfaces to navigate between the elementary streams.
* modules/gui/wxwindows/menus.cpp: use the "foo-es" object variables.

big audio chunk. (Avoid 100000 samples at once :(

 * mp4: don't return a failed value when recognize a ref file, but use
a dummy Demux function that return EOF.

we should perhaps change the behavour of input_NewPacket).

* modules/demux/mp4/mp4.c: fixed an off by one error in array access.

the audio part of mov file. I'm really interested by any regression you
could find, please _test_ all .mp4/.mov file you have.

* ALL: i18n updates and fixes.

 * mp4 : removed a bad initialisation. Erased all ending spaces.
 * mpeg/audio : send i_rate to decoder (not yet usefull but ...)

informations to send.

(multiple moov headers is strictly forbidden but I 've seen such file)

decoder_fifo_t (p_waveformatex and p_bitmapinfoheader). It's
a replacement of p_demux_data as this variable is used by
some demuxers in another way. This way, I will be able to add
preliminary support of mpeg4 in mpeg2TS... (I haven't tested ogm
demuxer so if somebody wants ...)

are passed (more logical).
