Sam Hocevar b2f56af994 * Fixed a segfault in the input thread creation, as well as a possible
deadlock. This happened mostly when opening non-existing files.
 * Created input_SetStatus to do input_SetRate's job. input_SetRate will
   be used to set an arbitrary rate, for people who want to read DVDs at
   1/2.71828 times the actual speed.
 * Stubs for the ncurses control interface. No working code yet, but the
   holes just need to be filled.
 * Improved X11 support. Still not as functional as before.
 * The output window now states the method name, so that people know whether
   they are using X11 or SDL.
 * The Gnome interface is now drag'n'drop aware, you can drop a file
   on it just like Xine does (or so I guess).

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.
