ChangeLog for vlc
=================
0.2.70:
* Fixed headers for FreeBSD compilation.
* Fixed debian/rules for non-x86 packages (Closes: Debian bug #88583).
* Deleted BBitmap[0] directly after overlay creation as no longer needed
as overlay now owns Bits()
* Fixed MPEG-1 mux_rate parsing.
* Fixed MPEG-1 stuffing.
* Don't create BBitmap drawing thread if using overlays
* Changes to BeOS interface with file selection support
* Fixed a boolean_t/int mix.
* Increased FIFO_SIZE.
* Fixed all alignment issues
* Networked TS input
* Working menus for run-time audio/spu/title/chapter selection with gtk
interface.
* Port of the interface menus to gnome plugin.
* Gtk playlist
* Tried to fix the "stream jumps at will" bug.
* Fixed most of the bugs in gnome interface menus
* Added radio checks in menu items.
* Bug fixes and enhancements in the Gtk+/Gnome interfaces.
* Borrowed config.guess and config.sub from SDL [MacOS X port] ;
* Changed files so that the MacOS X port compiles & runs [MacOS X port] ;
* If SDL/GTK/DSP is not available, don't compile the associated module.
* Gtk+ interface: fixed a precision issue in the scale.
* Qt interface: somebody pop up us the menu!!
* Fixed Debian sparc build for real (Closes: Debian bug #89285).
* vlc core compiles under QNX RTOS. Now if anyone feels like tidying
it and writing output and interface plugins...
* Split audio output into several separate files to make it easier
to debug. Removed a few redundancies as well.
* Support for Darwin CoreAudio, courtesy of Colin Delacroix [MacOS X port] ;
* Added warnings for ac3 mantissa (we still have problems with AC3 on
MacOS X) ;
* Renamed WriteResource to avoid a namespace clash with Darwin's
WriteResource.
* Compile Darwin module by default on Darwin system. [MacOS X port]
* Use $QTDIR for the qt module ;
* SDL fixes and enhancements by Shane Harper <shanegh@optusnet.com.au>
* Header cleaning: filled all empty authors fields, added CVS $Id stuff.
* Fixes to aout_darwin.c by Colin Delacroix <colin@zoy.org>.
* Fixes to configure.in, Makefile.in and main.c (Altivec detection)
by Eugenio Jarosiewicz <ej0@cise.ufl.edu>.
* Added a SYNCHRO_START in DVDRead for each cell change to fix
multi-angle streams
* Changed seek function to prevent jump-at-will and to remove two bugs in
sector computing.
* Initialize some values in netlist (payload_discard wasn't which caused
frame dropping)
* Come back of multi-sector read which should make reading faster
* Language & Inteface support for BeOS interface
* XVideo plugin courtesy of Shane Harper <shanegh@optusnet.com.au>
* Makefile.in and configure.in fixes by Nilmoni Deb <ndeb@ece.cmu.edu>
* A few syntax fixes in the plain X11 plugin
* Various bug fixes in dvd_netlist. Some bugs seem to remain though.
* New function input_ToggleES for interaction with interface.
* Changes in gnome interface : navigation menus are now splited, there
are radio item in menus and the code should be better.
* First step for dvd_ifo rewritting. Now allocation/disallocation is
being done as it has to be.
* Fixed a bug in title management that make dvd like Seven work.
* vout_beos now uses double buffering for YCbCr overlay.
This (for some reason) improves audio/video sync
* Fixes for the Qt plugin compilation under Debian
* Heavy butchering in the CSS and DVD ioctl code to put all architecture-
dependent code in dvd_ioctl.c
* Added almost fully-functional /dev/dvd driver for MacOS X in
extras/DVDioctl.
* Fall back to one-packet-once reading in dvd input since multi-block
seems to have a bug that make the vlc crash on title/audio/spu change. I
hope that this bug will be fixed soon for the performance is poorer now
* Add-ons and changes in gnome interface:
o menu subdivision is done only if there are over 20 items,
o in DVD mode next/prev apply to title,
o in DVD mode, added a box with button to navigate through chapters.
* Additional enhancements to the OS X DVD ioctl module
* Big cleaning of the BeOS DVD ioctl code, got rid of all Linuxisms
* Compilation fixes for the BeOS DVD ioctls
* XVideo plugin enhancements by Shane Harper <shanegh@optusnet.com.au>
* Added the GNU getopt library, which gets compiled in when getopt_long
isn't available on the desired platform.
* Replaced the `--warning' flag with the standard cumulative `-v' flag.
`-v' is like `--warning 3', and `-vvvv' is like `--warning 0'
(`--warning' is still valid for those used to it)
* Cleaning in configure.in and Makefile.in, the Solaris port now
builds and runs properly.
* Code cleanup: removed a few tabulations.
* Fixed inline asm routines to remove all read/write operands.
* Added <string.h> to most files to prevent warnings under FreeBSD.
* Added "break;" after "default:" in case switches to prevent
warnings when compiling with GCC 3.0pre.

interface (courtesy of Eugenio Jarosiewicz & Colin Delacroix) ;
* Cleaning code and a small fix to make quit work on OSX
* Disable x11 plugin if X11 headers are not found.
* Misc fixes in the DVD input.
* Fixed CSS authentication under Linux.
* Playlist now refreshes when a file is opened.
* XVideo plugin background is now black instead of white.
