* src/input/input.c:
   + introduced input_item_t that is shared between the playlist/vlm and the input thread (contains input name, options, infos, etc...).
   + changed prototype of input_CreateThread() to input_thread_t *input_CreateThread( vlc_object_t *, input_item_t * ).
* ALL: use input_item_t and INPUT_ADD_INFO when necessary.

now you can see at least something with those SAP announces with Latin char encoding.

Works around an issue with some playlist items added by the sap interface : since they aren't coded in UTF8, a blank string is printed. 

This doesn't correct this issue, but at least, it doesn't prevent the item proprieties window from opening anymore.

Modified a little default skin
 -> hiding video window

 (I have changed a ((uint8_t *)op.bytes) -= 4; and I'm not sure what it
was meant to do as op.bytes is a "long")
 

 * livedotcom, mkv: removed all TAB_*.

cast of lvalue. -> Don't use them anymore in C++ code.
( Don't use *(void**)&p, it won't work because of aliasing problem).

 * vlc_meta.h: don't use TAB_* as this file is included in C++ code.

 input: fixed uninitialised variable (i_microsecondperframe for subs)

 from stable, but begin to work. (Tested only with TS).
 Limitation: no synchro with others stream if any (anyway, it would be
a bit stupid to have such stream).
 

to chain demuxer.
    - stream_DemuxNew: create a special stream_t, launch a thread that
    will open a demuxer, and call p_demux->pf_demux until asked to die.
    - stream_DemuxSend: append a block to be used by the new demuxer.
    - stream_DemuxDelete : free all data...

 (each vlc_object_find has to be followed by a vlc_object_release once
the object isn't needed anymore)

 Btw, I think we should better do that update in src/input/input_dec.c,
this way it will work with every decoder AND a decoder should not touch
p_input (decoders will be used by transcode for instance ...)

* Allow to modify subtitle delay on the fly and implement hotkeys 
  (h and j)

* When framerate is available with subrip, use sub-fps to make corrections
  (sub-fps default value is now 0, if left to this value, 25fps will be
   assumed in microdvd mode and no correction will be applied in subrip)

Main problem is that when seeking in the subtitles, you easily get
several of them displayed. Maybe we could add a flag to subpicture_t,
like SUBTITLE_PICTURE to say that only one of them must be displayed at
a time, but that other subpictures (OSD, ...) can remain present on the
screen at the same time.

this.  (But most poeple won't notice the improvement since video
switching is broken.)

Reverses previous patch, which added 1min/5min forward / backward functions, as it made the interface too unclear. We need to find another way to use hotkeys on the main interface...

  - disable stream_ReadLine debug.
* ALL:
  - added a new demux2 module to handle Kasenna MediaBase 
    metadata files. These are application/x-sgimb masked
    'mpeg' files on the web. They are in reality mostly constructors
    for rtsp links. The reference to SGI is because the MediaBase
    solutions originate from SGI.

  - spelling fix
  - added telnet intf to 'Add Interface'
* modules/misc/logger.c:
  - on Mac OS X, use ~/Library/Logs to write logger intf output.
* ALL
  - Added 'Add Interface' to Mac OS X build. Now you can finaly quicklaunch
  the SAP intf.

  the following layout: [cf xmms skins ;)]

  font for xmms/winamp2 skins is supported (the bitmap must have the
  following layout: [0123456789 -] with letters of size 9x13).
  Non-digit characters are just skipped, with a hardcoded advance of 6
  (it allows correct display of time in xmms skins; the ':' are skipped)
  Small example at http://people.via.ecp.fr/~asmax/chaos.vlt (uncomplete skin)
  * vars/time.cpp: notify the observers also when the input is stopped
  * controls/ctrl_text.cpp: do not reset the FSM state and timer when the
  text is displayed (was causing bugs in time display)
