* ./mozilla/vlcplugin.cpp: javascript support for the Mozilla plugin.
  * debian/rules: the A52 module is now in a separate package.

autodetect S/PDIF hardware support and the audio output plug-in chooses
the best one. Of course it probably breaks existing output modules, see
oss.c for hints :).

Also include minor tweaks which will entitle us to decode and output 5.1
audio. It may break existing plug-ins, too. See
audio_output.c:aout_FormatNbChannels for hints.

    compilation fixes (typo, undeclared var).

    to like the gettext m4 files.

    issues in the Win32 build.

    unnoticeable apart from the extra dependency on autoconf, automake and
    gettextize. See the new HACKING file for some information, especially if
    you don't run Linux.

    The current strategy is to have the configure script generate a nice
    automake Makefile from Makefile.am, and then clobber it with our good
    old dirty Makefile. Muahaha :-)

(incomplete and untested).

    - added messages and playlist panel
    - simple dock menu (play, pause, stop)
    - context menu in video view
    - localization support: http://nanocrew.net/vlc/vlc-osx-ja.png
    - no longer broken :)

  * ./debian/rules: activated the vlc-xosd, vlc-kde and mozilla-plugin-vlc
    Debian packages.
  * ./po/*: updated potfiles.

* ./include/configuration.h: renamed MODULE_CONFIG_* macros into
CONFIG_*.
* ./include/configuration.h, ./plugins/gtk/gtk_preferences.c,
./plugins/filter/transform.c, ./plugins/filter/distort.c,
./plugins/filter/deinterlace.c: added an ADD_STRING_FROM_LIST()
configuration macro.
* ./include/modules.h, ./include/video_output.h,
./src/video_output/video_output.c, ./plugins/filters/*: added a
VOUT_FILTER capability. Having a clear distinction between VOUTs and
VOUT_FILTERs allows us to get rid of ugly hacks. The filters are also
stackable now (use --filter=foo:bar:foo etc..).
* ./include/configuration.h, ./src/libvlc.h, ./src/libvlc.c: clean-up +
added an ADD_USAGE_HINT() configuration macro.

    vlc_object_destroy (idea from stef).
  * ./po/pl.po: updated polish translation, thanks to Arkadiusz Lipiec
    <alipiec@adrenalina.pl>.

  * ./src/misc/objects.c: we do not hang on attempt to destroy an object with
    a non-zero reference count, but we still complain.
  * ./plugins/gtk/gtk_control.c, plugins/gtk/gtk_playlist.c: most controls such
    as play, pause, stop, next, fast etc. work again.
  * ./plugins/gtk/gnome_*: got rid of lots of useless wrappers which were a
    workaround for a bug in Glade. Instead, bootstrap.sh does the Glade fixes.
  * ./plugins/ffmpeg/ffmpeg.c: if there is already a video output with the
    appropriate properties, we use it.

  * ./src/interface/interface.c: interfaces are no longer attached only to
    p_vlc.
  * ./src/libvlc.c, ./src/misc/modules.c, ./src/playlist/playlist.c,
    ./src/input/input.c: improvements in the playlist handling (not quite that
    yet though).
(ported from v0_4_1_branch)
  * ./configure.in, ./plugins/mpeg_system/mpeg_ts.c: fixed libdvbpsi handling.
  * ./src/misc/configuration.c: fixed the --nofoo option handling.
  * ./src/interface/main.c: fixed two compilation warnings under Solaris.

    bug which might have been the cause of crashes.
  * ./plugins/filter/crop.c: attempt at an automatic border cropping filter,
    using "--filter crop --autocrop".
  * ./vlc.spec: added missing filters to the RPM generation.
  * ./src/misc/objects.c: commented all functions.
  * ./src/misc/objects.c: implemented vlc_object_find( , , FIND_ANYWHERE).
  * ./src/misc/objects.c: renamed vlc_object_unlink to vlc_object_detach.

  * ./bootstrap.sh, ./src/libvlc.h, ./po/*: fixed bootstrap.sh so that it does
    not include CVS Id lines in automatically created files.

    src/interface/intf_eject.c, src/misc/threads.c: win32 compilation fix.
  * ./plugins/directx/aout_directx.c, plugins/directx/vout_directx.c,
    ./plugins/directx/vout_events.c: the DirectX notification and event threads
    now use the vlc_thread_create / vlc_thread_ready scheme. Untested.
  * ./configure.in: added a check for inttypes.h and sys/int_types.h.
  * ./configure.in: fixed the HTTP plugin compilation under BeOS.
  * ./plugins/network/ipv6.c: reactivated IPv6 module.

    vlc_thread_create / vlc_thread_ready scheme to signal readiness.
  * ./src/misc/objects.c: prevent the creation of a too small vlc_object_t.
  * ./include/vdec_ext-plugins.h: removed the vdec_thread_t declaration, which
    belongs to plugins/mpeg_vdec.
  * ./ChangeLog: imported the 0_4_1_branch changelog.
  * ./plugins/chroma/i420_yuy2.h: imported a 0_4_1_branch fix.

   As for video output 4, this breaks almost everything, but I'll slowly
  do what remains to be fixed during the weekend.

   Changes in vlc:
   ===============

  * vlc is now a very small program (20 lines) which uses the libvlc API;
   it is quite simple for the moment but can be extended in the future.

  * interfaces, decoders, video outputs, etc. are now almost the same
   objects (yes, I know, this is C++ redone in C) and are structured in
   a tree. More about this later, but basically it allows the following
   nice features:
    - several interfaces
    - several playlists with several outputs
    - input plugins spawning helper interfaces (will be used for DVD menus)
    - anything spawning anything; I swear there are useful uses for this!

  * libvlc can be used in other programs; I'm currently writing a Mozilla
   plugin for my employer.

   Things currently broken:
   ========================

  * most interfaces, most ports
  * the playlist handling (almost finished rewriting this though). This means
   no file can be played from the GUI, you need to use the commandline. This
   also means it segfaults at EOF, when exiting the program, and it sometimes
   refuses to open a file when asked to.

  * ./po/pl.po: polish translation, courtesy of Arkadiusz Lipiec
    <A.Lipiec@elka.pw.edu.pl>.

  * 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.

    verbose messages.
  * ./po/en_GB.po: British translation.

  * ./src/misc/configuration.c: support for short options. -V, -A, -I
    are back, and we also have -4 and -6 for IPv4/IPv6.

  * ./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.

  * 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.

  * ./po/ja.po: added Japanese translation from Fumio Nakayama
    <endymion@ca2.so-net.ne.jp>.
  * ./plugins/gtk/gtk_callbacks.c: fixed disc ejection code.
  * ./ChangeLog: how about a nice cup of 870 lines of ChangeLog for the 0.3.0
    release?

  * ./po/no.po: Norwegian translation by Sigmund Augdal. Berd� ka p� t�t.
  * ./src/misc/modules.c: shortcuts for --intf work again, gvlc launches the
    Gtk interface, qvlc launches the Qt interface, etc.
  * ./plugins/fx/scope.c: we now have sound together with --aout scope.

Some heavy changes today:
  * Removed duplicate function checks from configure.in.
  * Added extra magic to Makefile.modules so that the module Makefiles
    are now ridiculously simple. And I mean *simple*. Check it! This will
    make a possible switch to full autoconf/automake a lot easier.
  * Added the vlc version name to the plugin symbols, to be sure we only load
    plugins with the same version number. A nasty consequence is that you
    need to rebuild your tree after midnight if you are using a CVS tree :-)
  * Got rid of modules_export.h by #defining exported functions in the same
    header as their prototype.
  * Added modules_inner.h and other commonly used .h files to common.h so
    there are less and less files to include, and renamed common.h to
    <videolan/vlc.h>.
  * First modifications to the module handling system towards my ultimate
    goal to get rid of the *_Probe functions. Got rid of TestMethod and
    TestCPU, as well as src/misc/tests.c.
  * Wrote the chroma plugin handlin...

  * (very old) russian translation courtesy of Valek Filippov <frob@df.ru>.
  * Fixed a charset issue in the french translation.

  * Updated config.guess and config.sub from GNU's latest versions (bozo,
    you may want to update them in vls as well).
  * Added vlc.pot skeleton for translators.
