Stéphane Borel ab1d602499 *More cleanification in gtk interface: now to change the
title/chapter/audio/spu/angle, we tell the input to do intead of doing
it inside the interface. It results in fewer locks during the changes.

*The dvd plugin reads again blocks of 32 sectors to gain speed since
there are no more lock-ups during stream change. I've also created a new
file that contain function to described video and audio streams with ifo
datas.

The changes are made only for gtk. We should update the other interfaces
soon (beos at least).

There is a memory corruption somewhere that make the vlc crash. I've no
idea where to search.

README for vlc, the VideoLAN Client


Introduction
============

The vlc is part of the VideoLAN project, a full MPEG2 client/server
solution. The VideoLAN Client can also be used as a standalone program
to play MPEG2 streams from a hard disk or a DVD.


Building, Installing and Running VideoLAN
=========================================

See the INSTALL file for this.


Troubleshooting
===============

A mailing-list has been set up for support and discussion about the
vlc. Its address is :

   <vlc@videolan.org>

To subscribe, send a mail to <listar@videolan.org> with the following
words in the mail body :

   subscribe vlc

To unsubscribe, do the same with the words :

   unsubscribe vlc


When reporting bugs, try to be as precise as possible (which OS, which
distribution, what plugins you were trying, and so on).


Resources
=========

The VideoLAN web site at http://www.videolan.org/ is a good start for
information about MPEG and DVD playing. Have a look at the documentation
section, as well as the bookmarks.

You can also try the OpenDVD site at http://www.opendvd.org/ or the
the LiViD project at http://www.linuxvideo.org/. They have lots of
information, too.
