side effects because I don't know this part of the code, but at least
it doesn't crash anymore.
* ./plugins/beos/beos.cpp: first attempt at porting the BeOS plugin to the
new video output and module systems. Doesn't work nor even compile yet.
* ./configure.in: we now check the gtk-config version.
* ./plugins/mga/mga.c: ported the MGA video output to vout4. Only does YV12
for the moment, and there is a strange bug with some streams which gives
only a green image. Needs to be looked at.
* ./plugins/x11/xcommon.c: fixed a few typos.
* ./src/video_output/vout_pictures.c et al.: vout4 now automatically
detects when two chroma formats are the same, such as UYVY/Y422, or
roughly equivalent, such as I420/YV12. Plugins need not worry about
conversion anymore.
* ./MODULES: added a short description of each module. Maybe we should
add more details to make this file really useful.
* ./doc/bugreport-howto.txt: wishful thinking...
* ./Makefile: added a workaround for the fact that .c files don't depend
on <videolan/vlc.h>.
* ./plugins/memcpy/memcpy.c: all memcpy modules are now built from the same
single file.
* ./src/interface/main.c: added the --nommx, --no3dnow, --nommxext, --nosse
and --noaltivec options to vlc.
* ./configure.in: removed the --disable-mmx option, now useless because
of the vlc --no* options.
* ./src/interface/main.c: fixed a crash caused by the memcpy module
being released too early.
* ./include/video.h: more vout4 changes, including margin support, more
FOURCC formats recognized, transparent support of identical or almost
identical FOURCC formats.
* ./include/video_output.h: added a vout_Render function to video output
modules which is to be executed before vout_Display.
* ./include/common.h: this header is back.
* ./plugins/chroma/i420_rgb.c: planar YUV 4:2:0 to packed RGB conversion
functions, mostly taken from vout3's yuv functions, but heavily modified
to use FAST_MEMCPY and to handle image dimensions which are not multiples
of 16. Not all functions have been written yet, though.
* ./plugins/chroma/i420_yuy2.c: planar YUV 4:2:0 to packed YUV conversion
functions, various targets such as 4:2:2 YUYV, YVYU, UYVY, or 2:1:1 YUYV,
with accelerated MMX versions.
* ./plugins/chroma/i422_yuy2.c: same as i420_yuy2.c but takes planar YUV
4:2:2 pictures in input. With accelerated MMX versions as well. This plugin
makes it possible to display 4:2:2 files on most video cards without the
quality loss of 4:2:0 downsampling.
* ./plugins/filter/*: thanks to the vout_Render function, all filters now
output their data perfectly in sync.
* ./plugins/dvdread/Makefile: fix to prevent unnecessary target rebuilds.
* ./plugins/sdl/vout_sdl.c: support for YV12, UYVY, YUY2 and YVYU overlays.
* ./plugins/x11/xcommon.c: support for I420, YV12, YUY2 and Y211 overlays.
* ./include/config.h et al.: this file is no longer generated.
* ./include/video.h: we use the FOURCC definition of a chroma format to
describe picture types (see http://www.webartz.com/fourcc/).
* ./plugins/dvdread/input_dvdread.c: compilation fix by Eyal Lebedinsky.
* ./plugins/x11/xcommon.c: fixed the XShm operations order.
* Fixed the ts plugin's input type detection.
* Fixed the BadCursor error in the x11 and xvideo plugins. For real this
time (unlike my 2001/08/03 fix :p).
* Made the wall filter work a bit better. It now spawns a 3x2 mosaic,
but this will eventually be configurable, � la `--filter wall:3x3'.
* 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 handling functions. No YUV functions have been
ported yet because it'ls a lot of work, but the core system works, I
tried it with a naive yv12->rgb16 plugin (which will disappear when the
real functions are ready).
* Made a lot of functions in dvd_summary.c one-liners to avoid wasting
too many output lines.
* Fixed a segfault in input_dvd.c:DVDInit.
* Added a fixfiles.sh script in plugins/gtk to be run after Glade has
generated its C files.
* Did some work on the KDE interface to make it suck a bit less. It still
segfaults, but at least it runs and it looks less ugly.
* RGB SDL rendering works again, though in 16bpp only.
* Made plugins/vcd/linux_cdrom_tools.c independent of any vlc structure
so that it'll be easily put in a library. Maybe libdvdcss?
* Fixed VCD date display.
* Merged vout_xvideo.c, vout_x11.c and vout_common.c into xcommon.c.
* Wrote non-Shm XVideo output.
* Made X11 output work again. Still pretty unstable, only works for 16bpp.
* Additional french translation in po/fr.po. Any taker for the rest?
* Fixed a segfault in video_output.c when the allocated pictures were
not direct buffers.
* If $DISPLAY isn't set, don't try to run the Gtk+ interface.
* Replaced 48x48 .xpm images with 32x32 ones to conform to Debian policy
(Closes Debian bug #126939).
* Removed the automatic ./configure launch when running `make all' for
the first time.
Stuff currently more broken than it ought to be:
* The wall filter. Being fixed.
* x11 and sdl plugins for depth != 16bpp.
* Software YUV.
* gvlc, gnome-vlc, kvlc shortcuts. Use --intf instead for the moment.
in all decoders. Called it DecoderError() instead.
* All decoders enter DecoderError() in case of error, even if they
haven't allocated all their data. This prevents the input from getting
stuck if a decoder has failed its initialization.
* Namespace fixes through the decoder files.
* Fixed compilation with plugins disabled.
* Removed useless variables in the VCD and DVD plugins.
* Fixed a function which was returning "struct foo" in the VCD plugin.
* Fixed the old � XVideo eats more and more CPU � bug I mistakenly
reintroduced in my first vout4 commit.
* Prevent two SDL video outputs or audio outputs to be spawned at the
same time to avoid ugly crashes.
* The SDL plugin now says whether we are using software or hardware YUV
in its window title.
* We now stop at the first ':' when looking for a module name, to easily
pass information to the modules. Possible example: --vout sdl:software,
implementation of such an option is left as an exercise.
* Merged filter_bob and filter_bob422 into filter_bob. Use --filter bob
to deinterlace 422 into 420 as well.
* Factorized code common to most filters and the video output, optimized
a few filters by aligning data and reading 64 bits at a time.
* Two new absolutely useless, CPU-eating, resource-wasting, but fun
filters: enjoy `transform', which performs flips and 90� rotations, and
`distort', which performs animated image effects (currently only a naive
sine wave is implemented). Usage examples:
--filter transform:hflip
--filter transform:vflip
--filter transform:90
--filter transform:180
--filter transform:270
--filter distort:wave
* Fixed XVideo port selection.
* New stupid plugin: "--filter wall" for split-image playback :-)
(will evolve into a real image wall plugin when I have time)
* Support for REPORT_TITLE_KEY and RPC commands by H�kan Hjort
<d95hjort@dtek.chalmers.se>.
vlc changes:
* Minor coding style fixes (please avoid tabs).
calculated!), but worth a try. Use the following flags:
"--filter invert" for inverse video
"--filter bob" for BOB deinterlacing
* Fixed a potential segfault if the subtitle stream was encountered
before the video stream.
* Misc vout4 fixes.
