a different language than your OS, or if your OS is not localized...

     Fixed a very old bug: if the user hit Alt+Q, don't let the be_app
     exit without any cleaning (that made VLC crash badly)

* modules/demux/mpeg/ts.c: compiler warning fix.
* src/input/input_programs.c: a "Disable" choice is added by default to "audio-es", "video-es" and "spu-es".

* 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.

* ALL: removed the old channels server stuff (was deprecated).

    width and height variables are set to their default values.

* src/audio_output/output.c: fixed warning.

* src/misc/variables.c, ALL: improvements to the object variables api.
   - added another argument to var_Change().
   - added a VLC_VAR_SETTEXT and VLC_VAR_GETTEXT method to var_Change()
     that are used to set/get a friendly name to an object variable.
   - added VLC_VAR_CHOICESCOUNT to var_Change() to be able to retrieve
     the number of availabel choices without having to get their value
     as well.
   - VLC_VAR_ADDCHOICE uses the extra var_Change() argument to assign
     a friendly name to the choice value.
   - VLC_VAR_GETCHOICES retrieves the choices values and their friendly
     names.

* modules/gui/wxwindows/*: first step in implementing menu auto-generation in the wxWindows interface.

  children" bug.

module_Need (when I ask for udp I want udp or an error, but not file
or something else) by adding ",none" when a module name is specified.
 I will clean up that by adding a flag to module_Need or something like
that.

* src/video_output/vout_pictures.c, include/video_output.h: added a vout_InitPicture() function that initializes a picture_t structure based on the given chroma and sizes.
* modules/encoder/ffmpeg/video.c: misc improvements. Should also be able to handle more input chroma format.
* modules/codec/rawvideo.c: a few fixes.
* modules/access/v4l/v4l.c: misc improvments and cleanup. Should be able to handle more source chroma formats. On the fly video encoding is also working perfectly now.

* src/video_output/video_output.c: small bugfix + vout_Create() is now blocking until InitThread() has been run.
* src/video_output/vout_pictures.[ch]: added support for FOURCC I411.
* modules/codec/rawvideo.c: support for more chroma formats.

* src/libvlc.c: forgot to reload the command line options after we reload the main module when the user disables the translation.

* gtk2_api.cpp: made valgrind happy ;)

 * modules/gui/beos/*: added _()s so the whole interface is translated
 * src/libvlc.c: ask gettext for UTF-8 strings (under BeOS only for now)
   FIXME: currently, untranslated strings are not converted to UTF-8

* configure.ac.in : disabled compiling the old mpeg_video plug-in, so :
DO NOT FORGET TO INSTALL LIBMPEG2 AND COMPILE WITH --enable-libmpeg2

before first slice).
 * ffmpeg: use indeo v3 decoder (untested).
 * stream_ouput.c,libvlc.h : take care of:
 --sout-acodec,--sout-vcodec : use transcoding. (You can specify bitrate
using --sout-abitrate and --sout-vbitrate in kilobits/s).
 --sout-display: to display while streaming.
(Btw there is a problem with vout and display, it leads to a ref count = -1)

  (incomplete).

modify/apply on all streams, --sout has the same behavour expect when
starting with a '#'.

 With a starting '#' you can specify a chain of modules, it's still
unstable but a lot more powerfull.
 You have access to duplicate(that duplicate all stream), transcode
(using only ffmpeg), standard/std and es (that apply muxers and access),
and display. You could chain them with ':' and specify options with
{option1=value,option2=value[,...]}.

ex: * to stream and see the stream to udp/ts:ip
 --sout '#duplicate{dst=display,dst=std{access=udp,mux=ts,url=ip}}'
    * to transcode,see and stream
 --sout '#transcode{acodec=mpga}:duplicate{dst=display,dst=std{access=udp,mux=ts,url=ip}}'

 Without a starting '#', the url is converted into '#std{acces=,mux=,url}'
Test and report bugs :)

* src/libvlc.c: fixed the "color" config option.
* src/misc/messages.c: removed an unnecessary #ifdef WIN32 in PrintMsg().

* src/libvlc.c: Darwin doesn't have a "translation" config variable

* src/libvlc.c: fixed the translation config option to also take into
  account the value in the config file.

* src/libvlc.c: reload the main module in case the user asks for the
   translation to be disabled. That way, the translation will even be
   disabled in the preferences panel.

* src/misc/configuration.c: what the f??k, configuration variable names
   and subtypes were being translated.

messages "option headphone does not exist". I'm not clever enough to find
out why it doesn't work when it's named "headphone".

work.

* OS X : create dummy fr.lproj etc. directories, so that the Apple menu and standard file dialogs be translated too
* modules/gui/wxwindows/open.cpp: fixed a string
* src/misc/configuration.c: don't yell when a config variable disappears
* po/de.po po/it.po: new translations by maintainers

Audio grabbing part is commented out and untested.
 The syntax is like that:
  v4l:<device>[:option=value:...]
 options: channel,norm (pal, ntsc,secam), frequency (not really there is
          a factor), audio, size (WxH or subqcif,qsif,qcif,sif,cif,vga),
          codec (optional, mpeg1 or mpeg4 and need to have compiled the
          encoders modules)
 ex: v4l:/dev/video:channel=0:frequency=8052:norm=secam:size=vga
 Please test.
 * rawvideo.c: a pseudo decoder for raw video (I420).
 * packetizer/*, mux/*, stream_output.c: fixed (I hope) audio/video
synchro problems.

* modules/gui/wxwindows/*: small formating changes.
* modules/video_filter/deinterlace/deinterlace.c, src/libvlc.h: modified a couple of config option descriptions.

* include/configuration.h: added the add_directory() config macro.
* modules/gui/wxwindows/preferences.cpp: support for add_string_from_list().
* ALL: changed some add_string() config options to add_file().

* modules/gui/wxwindows/*: fixed the save feature of the preferences dialog box.
* src/misc/configuration.c: added support for CONFIG_ITEM_DIRECTORY.

* modules/audio_filter/channel_mixer/headphone.c, src/libvlc.h:
   moved the headphone-dim config option to the headphone plugin.
* modules/demux/demuxdump.c: the demuxdump-file config optin now has a default value.
* src/libvlc.c: fixed the extraintf config option not to spawn an interface plugin when an invalid name has been given.
