synchronized ; and menus have less chances to be changed when they're opened.
-added basic angle support ; this is a first try. It works with my 2
test-DVDs, but I'd like that people having DVDs with repeated scenes to
test it. We can choose angle with command line option -u (don't ask me
why :)
-a cosmetic change in css decryption.
Since config.h.in has changed, you have to re-run ./configure.
With warning level 1, you can see when a packet is allocated or freed; the
goal is to never call 'malloc' nor 'free', except at the beginning of the
stream.
The size of the different caches can be adjusted in plugins/mpeg/input_ps.h.
If 'free' is called too often, it means that a cache is too small, so try
to increase its size.
* Built-in modules support almost finished.
Now you can compile any module within vlc, even the Gnome, Qt, SDL
and GGI modules at the same time, resulting in an awful extra fat
vlc binary with gazillons of library dependecies.
The only exception is that the Gnome and Gtk+ modules can't be
compiled together into vlc. But you can have one compiled built-in
and the other as a plugin.
Another consequence is that libdl should no longer be needed under
MacOS X. I'll check this as soon as possible.
A few words about the changes:
- heavy Makefile butchery has taken place, each plugin now has its own
Makefile. I know recursive make blablah harmful, but it was just so
much easier to do this way.
- Makefile.in has disappeared, we now generate Makefile.opts with
the overall configuration options, and Makefile.modules which is
specific to module compilation.
- After ./configure has been run you may want to modify Makefile.opts
to check which modules will be compiled built-in or as plugins.
- Some modules cannot be compiled built-in right now because proper
linkage doesn't work yet. We don't really care since they're the
interface or video output modules. The most important stuff works
(iDCT, motion, YUV, input).
- It's perfectly valid to compile a module both as built-in and as a
plugin. vlc will only load the built-in one, but I'll add an option
to ignore built-in modules for testing purposes.
- We *should* see a performance increase here. I didn't have much time
to test it, but if anyone can confirm and perhaps give a rough
estimate of how much we gain...
I hope there won't be too many segfaults because of it ;)
A few parameters must be adjusted to optimize this method; I'll do it later
because Proba Stat sucks ;)
* Fixes to aout_darwin.c by Colin Delacroix <colin@zoy.org>.
* Fixes to configure.in, Makefile.in and main.c (Altivec detection)
by Eugenio Jarosiewicz <ej0@cise.ufl.edu>.
* Added Colin and Eugenio to the AUTHORS file.
even if no packet has benn receivced.
- Put more exmplicit error messages
I noticed that now I have "Seeking to position ...." messages even with
network input. If someone can do a quick fix, thanks about it.
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.
- Added base of network support
Things to be done :
- Meuuh : fix the PCR synchronisation so that we can set b_pace_cntrol to 0
- Sam : find a way of specifing the type of media (file, net). For the
moment, the "--input ts" always call input_NetworkOpen
- Maybe sam : for the moment the working syntax is vlc --input ts
servername, it should nbe turned into "vlc --server servername".
Things that don't work (i'll work on this this week end) :
- stopping and retaking a stream
- a nice 'waiting for stream'
- we select all incoming streams. we should be able to select.
Things that haven't been tested :
- broadcast
- only tested with one stream.
Kick me if something is broken by my fault.
- Added DemuxPSI, DecodePAT and DecodePMT. Never tested which streams
where PAT or PMT are splitted in more than one section.
- Some TS files still don't work (matrix.ts i.e : no sound ),
others do ... i'll have to investigate.
Todo :
- What if data get unaligned ?
- Write NetworkOpen
- Try to find why I get no sound on matrix.ts
- Support Stream and program selection.
so this didn't make it work better.
* Started thinking about built-in modules, and added some code to
make it easier eventually.
* Added Oct in the AUTHORS file.
* Fixed a mistake in configure.in.
* All your base are belong to us.
* Fixed a bug in src/misc/modules which prevented loading modules
when launched from the Tracker.
* Fixed a similar bug in src/video_output/video_text.c.
* BeOS CSS support, thanks to Markus Kuespert <ltlBeBoy@beosmail.com>
who ported the Linux DVD ioctls. We can now read encrypted DVDs
under BeOS ! Woohoo.
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.
* Fixed package building (both RPMs and .debs).
* Fixed `make snapshot' rule.
* Added some magic to filename detection. To read a DVD you now just
need to run 'vlc dvd:/dev/hdc' for instance. Same for file:// URIs.
* Fixed a segfault in the slider when no stream was playing.
* Made the slider go from 0 to 100 (instead of 99 :)
* The vlc now doesn't exit when finished playing. As a side effect of
the playlist code being very recent, it continuously loops.
Done :
- fixed netlist
- embryo : support TS video trough file ( kludgy ... )
Next :
- Write DecodePSI and DemuxPSI, wich will clean the kludges off
Then :
- Write NetworkOpen ( shouldn't be difficult )
Eventually :
- Deal with lost/corrupt packets
first playlist item.
* Added `Prev' and `Next' buttons to the interface, with the beginning of
a playlist window (still empty).
* Added `Slow' and `Fast' buttons to the interface and popup menu.
Ok, I promise it's the last time I check bloat in, from now the interface
commits will be much cleaner and actually fix things :)
. fixed a few warnings at compile-time
. fixed sound channel selection in playlist mode
. added a color message in the plugin bank because on peut bien d�conner
cinq minutes, quand-m�me
. we now spawn a new input thread for each file
. added a missing pf_close() because it's always cool to close files
after we read them
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
