* modules/access/ftp.c: cleaned up.

* configure.ac: detect if libavformat is present.
* modules/codec/ffmpeg/demux.c: new experimental demuxer using libavformat (most of the work done by fenrir).
   This demuxer should allow us to support "frindge" formats (FLIC, SWF, etc...).
   The demuxer has been put here because of its dependancy on libavformat and libavcodec.
* modules/codec/ffmpeg/ffmpeg.c: re-arranged the codecs list.

* src/playlist/*: fixed memory leaks.
* modules/codec/rawvideo.c: fixed dts/pts problem and added support for fourcc IYUV.
* modules/stream_out/transcode.c: added support for fourcc IYUV.

  apply to the selected program.

        -> Proxy, user/password and redirection untested.
        -> For icecast server, check also the mime (do not blindly force
        mp3, it could also be nsv).

 * nsv: fixed bad init.

optimized better too.

Add track info in "Media Information" Add track-specific information
and album information in "Item info".

Coding of all this is ugly and massively redundant. I think the
playlist needs to be re-thought/re-worked. Sublevels would be nice
too.

  * Cleaned up a comment
  * Added a function stream_ReadLine() to read one line from a stream
include/ninput.h:
  * export stream_ReadLine()

* modules/video_output/directx/directx.c: move the video window to the right display when using --directx-device.

check that command line parsing still works for items and options? )

- src/libvlc.c
  include/vlc/vlc.h : New libvlc functions to get playlist status and
                      clear the playlist
     Patch by Tong Ka Man

- src/playlist/* : Update copyrights

- src/playlist/playlist.c:
  -When a user explicitely asks for an item, do play it, even if random mode
  -Do not stop playlist upon deletion of an autodelete item
  -playlist_Clear (Patch by Tong Ka Man)

an interface to allow setting the duration on adding a playlist item.

cripple PBC for now though.

option. Run-of-the mill users may want to select that.

Update documentation.

* commands/cmd_fullscreen.*, parser/interpreter.cpp: added a
  "vlc.fullscreen()" command

* modules/video_output/directx/directx.c: patch by Mike Schrag to add a config var
for the directx preferred display device.

* modules/gui/skins2/vars/playlist.cpp: use ICONV_CONST to deal with the different prototypes for iconv(). Thanks sam!

* configure.ac: win32 compilation fixes for the skins2 plugin.
* modules/gui/skins2/Modules.am: renamed the plugin name into skins2 so it doesn't conflict with the old plugin.
* modules/gui/skins2/vars/playlist.cpp: fixed invalid cast.

  be download.videolan.org etc etc etc.
  A lot of small fixes

* src/playlist/item-ext.c : sanity checks when adding items

 * configure.ac: readded AX_ADD_PLUGINS([mpgv mpga m4v mpeg_system ps ts
   avi asf aac mp4 rawdv demux2 nsv real]), it was probably a mistake ....
   ( ouiiinnn, another bootstrap ;)

 * all: added net_* helpers functions.

What may be broken (untested):
------------------------------
   - Theora and Speex decoders
   - some interfaces
   - VCDX and CDDAX access

The problems shouldn't hopefully excess compilation glitches.
(removal of AddExt, of psz_author, and prototype of Add)

Additionnaly, interfaces that do not support item-change will have
update problems.

* Updated modules list

  modules/gui/wxwindows/iteminfo.cpp
        - Show the info as a tree view.
         At the moment, all is shown. We should maybe hide the "Options" tree
         as it rather "internal"
        - Improved a little the layout
        - Added a popup menu to to the playlist
        - Minimize playlist rebuilds

  modules/demux/avi/avi.c
  modules/demux/asf/asf.c
  src/input/es_out.c
        - Fill the playlist info structures

      - Use the new playlist API
      - Track title changes
      - Timeout. Delete an item if we haven't heard about it for too long.

* src/playlist/item.c
  src/playlist/info.c
  src/playlist/item-ext.c
  src/playlist/group.c
  src/playlist/sort.c
  src/playlist/loadsave.c
  include/vlc_playlist.h
      - New playlist_info structures and accessors
        It works pretty like the old input_info (with categories)
        It provides modularity to the playlist
      - Removed ppsz_options and i_options from playlist_item
        (we use the special category Options)
      - Added a unique id to each playlist_item to be able to track the
        items accross playlist reorders
      - Simplified adding of items.
           - playlist_AddExt is removed
           - playlist_AddItem is still here and exported but should not be used
           - use playlist_Add( p_playlist, uri, name, duration, mode, pos )
             and use the accessors for all other things
      - Added setters for fields of the playlist_item structure
      - Introduced "item-change" and "playlist-current" playlist variables
        to give more flexibility than only intf-change

      At the moment, duration is still in the structure (easier to use, IMHO)

* src/input/input.c
  src/libvlc.c :
        playlist item options parsing changed

* include/vlc_common.h : added playlist_info structures
