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 :-)
- 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 :)
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.
* ./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.
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.
* 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.
