Please notice that even if if builds with alsa 0.9beta, it's hardly
usable as it goes very often un Xrun mode. Though, it works fine with
current alsa CVS.

  * Added SPU cropping.
  * Gnome interface segfault fix.
  * BeOS interface segfault fix by AnEvilYak (what's you real name btw?).

  Note: if you want to have a look at the currently buggy YUV subpictures,
        uncomment line 1999 of src/video_output/video_output.c. Don't report
        bugs about this, I _know_ it's a quick hack.

  * Fixed an aspect ratio issue in the SPU decoder, and optimized the
    SPU renderer.

    Henri: a 0.5s timeout is not (time_t)0.5 sec and (time_t)0 usec
    but (time_t)0 sec and (time_t)500000 usec
    Now the input doesn't eat all the cpu any more :p

  * Speed optimization in the handling of the unusual ephemer DVD subtitles.
  * Little optimization to bozo's UnalignedShowBits fix.
  * Race fix in the packet cache by Jon Lech Johansen <jon-vl@nanocrew.net>.

    not wotk correctly (for instance VLS' generated TS streams)

  * Added support for some terribly braindead DVD subtitles in Kenshin
    which do not have a "stop display" command. Anime fans rejoice!
  * Fixed the BeOS interface to use p_aout_bank instead of p_main->p_aout.
  * Coding-style butchery (mostly tabs).

level corresponds now to the nb of -v to display the message.

*added functionnal preference window in gnome: it changes the
envirronment variables

*added jump window in gnome to jump to a precise time.

tuned appearence, added preferences window (with no features yet), jump
window to go to specified time (not functionnal yet), and fixed some
bugs.

*moved b_fullscreen from p_vout->p_sys to p_vout and unified way of
toggling fullscreen in sdl in x11/xvideo output (using p_vout->i_ch
nges) so that an interface plugin can toogle fullscreen (implemented
in gnome)

*added p_input->stream.p_selected_area->i_tell in input TS so that the
slider work with ts files ( however, the time counter doesn't since we
have no mux_rate )

*improved ac3 spdif output ( and made it work again :)). It uses a true
blank frame now, and it allows to switch languages like a traditionnal
output. It doesn't support multiplexing though, neither can we switch
between spdif/analogical mode on-the-fly.

*beginning of the back port of gnome to gtk for those who do not have
gnome.

  * Fixed a few warnings with gcc 3.0.
  * aout and vout are now allocated in banks, making it possible to have
    several of them at the same time.
  * configure now checks for MMX and MMX EXT support in the assembler.
  * Removed all MMX code from the main program and moved it to the
    existing idct modules (Closes: Debian bug #96036).

    Don't forget to make distclean before building vlc again.

the playlist and the popup are unimplemented.

  * FreeBSD CSS decryption support.

* Corrected vlc-howto thanks to Arnaud Gomes-do-Vale
* Fixed a segfault in TS input. Some stream still do not work, or
  work very slowly with many error messages. I'll try to have a look.

  * Fixed a remaining buffer overflow in the Gnome interface and applied
    the patches to the Gtk+ interface.

  * Fixed a segfault in the SPU decoder initialization.

  * Mandatory step for video output IV and the audio output quality
    fix: the output threads are now spawned when a decoder needs one,
    so it can decide the audio frequency or the video window size. Still
    under heavy construction, so don't get too excited at finding bugs
    in it yet.

    Note: this change broke the XVideo module, so I made its score much
    lower than before. I suspect xvideo.so had a bug before which only
    appears now. Other video output plugins may be broken as well, but
    again this might be due to old existing bugs showing their ugly head.

  * Fixed a few buffer overflows in the Gnome interface.
  * The module bank is now a global variable. The video output bank and
    the audio output bank might follow (when they exist).
  * Coding style and organization fixes to the spdif decoder.
  * autoconf and Makefile changes by Arnaud Gomes-do-Vale
    <arnaud@carrosse.frmug.org>.

  - New ac3_imdct
  - New ac3_downmix

-I haven't forgotten the chagelog this time :)

  * BeOS crash fix by Wade Majors <guru@startrek.com>.

    Please, try no to forget the ChangeLog when commiting!

do the mwait and re-init last-cr so that there no date irregularity.
Such a thing is necessary for dvd playback at cell change ; however,
Meuuh, could you look at that since you might think we should do
otherwise.

-turned the "bitsream callback discontinuity" message to debug.

-removed modification of the title environnement variable in input dvd
at title change since we no longer restart the input at title change.

cards: it sends raw ac3 frames to an external ac3 decoder. It is very
experimental yet, hasn't any synchro ... but it works well with my
sblive and my dtt3500 speakers (note that you need a patched emu10k1
driver for this to work).

-bug fix in gnome intf thanks to Shane Harper.

-bug fix in input_dvd for chapter change.

- Fixed a bug in TS input. It should be more smooth now
- Fixed the pace control. Meuuh, could you check ?

  * Updated debian control files and disabled ALSA for this version.

Updated files for 0.2.73 release

  * Fixed a nonsense in configure.in preventing to build sdl.so.
  * Removed a few stupid debug instructions in aout_s16.c that should
    have never been commited. Sorry about that.

  * Don't use the #@%&$! autoconf-suggested CFLAGS.

  * Coding style fixes here and there.
  * 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 ?)

Added a howto. Feel free to correct it. I'll put it on the website soon.

done inside a #ifdef DEBUG

It still segfaults for me on exit.

--enable-debug still exists, but only activates -g and additional
safety checks.

I hope I didn't break anything :))

Repaired broadcast support : binding INADDR_ANY doesn't seem to work.

You now have to specify the broadcast address as an argument.
Btw, thanks to sam, you can now use ts://server:port style, which gives
for broadcast :

vlc --broadcast broadcast_addr ts://server[:port]

  * Fixed the continuous 'seeking position' bug in network mode.
  * 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.
