* Miscellaneous QNX compile fixes.
* Beginning of the mingw32 port by Gildas Bazin <gbazin@netcourrier.com>.
* Added Marcari and Gildas to the AUTHORS file.
(I commited the mingw32 port because it doesn't add any new code outside
the #ifdefs, but we won't tell a word about it for the moment. We don't
really need windows users whining about bugs, do we ?)
* rc interface plugin for vlc control through /dev/stdin courtesy
of Peter Surda <shurdeek@panorama.sth.ac.at>.
* Support for `ts://foo:42' style input source:
vlc ts://vls.via.ecp.fr:1234
vlc ts://vls.via.ecp.fr
vlc ts:vls
vlc ts:vls:4321
As a side effect, the Gnome and Gtk "network input" buttons work.
* 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...
* Merged 6 months of CVS logs to the ChangeLog file.
The vlc changelog can now be viewed here:
http://www.videolan.org/vlc/changelog.html
* Fixed a lintian error in debian/rules.
* XVideo resize patch by Shane Harper <shanegh@optusnet.com.au>.
4:2:0 streams.
- Removed vout code found in intf file to support fullscreen switching.
Now only vout_SDL updates SDL data and intf only switch flags such as
b_reopen_display and b_fullscreen in p_vout->p_sys.
- Fixed a var name typo in input_programs.c which prevents vlc from
compiling with --enable-debug option. (i_es_pid -> i_es_id :)
There's a segfault in the termination process due to sdl, I don't really
know what is the problem and I have to work today. Help me!
Good night suckers. I love you too :p
* Fixed a bug which made frames go backwards with some displays (the
video_decoder thread is now niced).
* Made use of intf_WarnMsg() in the most needed places.
Also simplified the synchro algorithm and fixed a bug with non-(5/1) streams.
Fixed the optimizations in the configure stuff.
Warning : this release needs a full rebuild (make clean; make).
Warning : I might have broken the BeOS port, could somebody check ?
synchro.
* Remettage du #define STATS parce qu'en fait sinon on n'a pas les infos
dans la fen�tre. C'est dommage d'ailleurs qu'on ait � le mettre, parce
que du coup �a va nous d�courager de faire des stats sur d'autres
parties.
* Changements cosm�tiques dans les relations video_parser/video_decoder.
* Fixed a bug in video_ouput.c which made the stream go backwards
sometimes.
* Fixed a bug in video_ouput.c which trashed more late pictures than
necessary.
* Fixed the DEBUG mode in the Makefile.
* Fixed a bug in mwait() which made us wait too long.
Ca va tuer.
* added hints for powerpc build.
* fixed the input_file exit bug.
* fixed a Makefile bug which removed the CVS directory.
* removed the frame statistics output.
-march=pentium directive. thanks Meuuh, blame sam.
* fixed a warning in main.c.
* separate Debian packages.
* added request for ALSA support in the TODO list.
piti�, pour ne laisser que � vlc �, � gvlc � (gnome) et � fbvlc �
(framebuffer) ; les autres restent bien entendu accessibles avec
par exemple � vlc --vout ggi �.
. IMPORTANT - nouvelle option --synchro pour forcer un type de
synchro. Pour le moment les options possibles sont :
--synchro I /* n'affiche que les I */
--synchro IP /* affiche les I et toutes les P */
--synchro IP+ /* affiche les I, les P, et la moiti� des B */
--synchro IPB /* affiche toutes les images */
Toute autre valeur de --synchro sera ignor�e et c'est l'algo
par d�faut bas� sur la consommation de processeur qui sera
utilis�. Notez que si vous en demandez trop au vlc, il va
bien entendu planter, ou tout du moins remplir sa fifo comme
un gros cochon. On n'y peut pas grand chose, c'est la vie.
* removed float operations in the video decoder, and all emms asm functions
* borrowed linuxvideo's MMX motion compensation
* fixed an undefined symbol in the MMX YUV plugin
Meuuh & Sam.
fait gagner plus de 0.8% en vitesse, ce qui peut para�tre peu, mais
en fait au bout de 35 fois on aura d�pass� 30% de gains.
. remise de l'ancienne taille d'image par d�faut
Voil� le changelog appoximatif :

. vir� quelques warnings
. *PATH sont maintenant d�finis dans config.h
. quelques fautes d'orthographe
. l'option --enable-ppro n'est pas mise par d�faut car elle ne fonctionne
pas sur un K6-2
. nouvelle API des plugins
. le client framebuffer ne d�truit plus la console quand on quitte
. r�paration de la YUV 8 bits
. mise des YUV en plugins
. transfo YUV 32bits MMX chour�e dans la libmpeg2
