* SDL fixes and enhancements by Shane Harper <shanegh@optusnet.com.au>

   Shane, I removed the static variables from your code because static
   is not thread-safe, and one can imagine having several video output
   windows launched at the same time. Also, I made your feature work
   in windowed mode as well, because people kept asking how to hide the
   mouse pointer.

   Also, if you want to work on the XVideo extension, you are welcome ;
   most of us are quite busy at the moment. Damien Lucas <nitrox@via.ecp.fr>
   had offered to work on it, but he seems to be a bit lost, so you may
   want to take over his job.

   As for the "zoom" feature, I suggest you wait until version 4 of the
   video output is done, it'll be easier to do then.

Regards,

purposes).

  * Ported Glide and MGA plugins to the new module API. MGA never worked,
    so this didn't make it work better.
  * Started thinking about built-in modules, and added some code to
    make it easier eventually.
  * Added Oct in the AUTHORS file.
  * Fixed a mistake in configure.in.
  * All your base are belong to us.
  * Fixed a bug in src/misc/modules which prevented loading modules
    when launched from the Tracker.
  * Fixed a similar bug in src/video_output/video_text.c.
  * BeOS CSS support, thanks to Markus Kuespert <ltlBeBoy@beosmail.com>
    who ported the Linux DVD ioctls. We can now read encrypted DVDs
    under BeOS ! Woohoo.

activating YUV overlay on startup whenever hardware acceleration is
available. Thanks for bearing with us, stay tuned.

 * Tried to fix the BeOS interface and video output. Any BeOS developers
   listening ? I can't even test that code, it probably wants additional
   fixing.
 * Added a workaround in modules.c for broken libc's which happen to truncate
   filenames in dentry structures when using 64bits offsets. The kind of
   stuff you only see in RedHats <g>.
 * Made the SDL error messages a bit more useful.
 * The Gnome menu is now created when mouse is released, not when it
   is pressed. It may sound stupid, but it really makes a difference.

 * 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).

 * made the vout_sdl.c functions static
 * ported vout_x11.c to the modules API; code isn't very nice yet though

 * X11 output works again. It's just the output, but it works; I now need
   to clean the code and add event handling.

 * added --intf option to vlc
 * started cleaning vout_sdl.c
 * the dummy plugin works again
 * added a slider to the Gnome interface so that we can browse through streams

  There is a problem with the slider: we sometimes get unexpected async
  replies, which would mean that we don't properly lock our Xlib calls.
  Which is true. But we also get these errors when using `--vout dummy'.
  I'll investigate.

 . removed tests against i_rate and i_new_rate calculation from the
   plugins and hid this complexity into input_ext-intf.c

  * Fixed my old stupid bug that disabled sound after having played the
    first playlist item.
  * Added `Prev' and `Next' buttons to the interface, with the beginning of
    a playlist window (still empty).
  * Added `Slow' and `Fast' buttons to the interface and popup menu.

  Ok, I promise it's the last time I check bloat in, from now the interface
  commits will be much cleaner and actually fix things :)

 * The pure Gnome part of the Gnome interface has been rewritten from
   scratch, and the .glade file included as well. You can edit it by
   installing glade-gnome and doing `glade plugins/gnome/intf_gnome.glade',
   or directly by hand if you grok XML.
 * Files can now be loaded into vlc using the `Open' buttons. But for the
   moment you still have to launch vlc with at least one file, because it
   quits when the end of the playlist is reached.
 * Idle screen was disabled because it eats a lot of CPU and is mostly
   useless for the moment. And it gets activated when pause lasts for too
   long.

  Beginning of Interface II
 ---------------------------

 * Plugins have completely disappeared, we now only use the new module API.
 * All intf and vout modules are now independant. So far, only the Gnome
   intf module and the SDL vout module have been ported. configure.in has
   been modified to reflect the changes (x11 and dummy aren't compiled by
   default anymore, while SDL and Gnome are).

  Note that this is _not_ Interface II, it's just a step forward. For
  instance, it lacks the whole message passing scheme.

  Things that should work:

 * Right-clicking on the SDL video output window brings the Gnome menu.
 * Pause, Play, Exit, About work from the menu or from the interface window.
 * The old SDL keys still work.

   Things that are broken or may be broken:

 * Xlib calls are not locked yet, which may lead to "Unexpected async reply"
   errors, and make the vlc segfault.
 * Sound only works for the first file.
 * The SDL vout_sdl.c file is absolutely ugly and kludgey.
 * The vlc immediately quits when no filename is given as an argument. Not
   a real bug, but still annoying.
 * The Gnome menu does not work in fullscreen mode.

   Things that will come soon, maybe tomorrow:

 * Complete navigation buttons (fast forward, slow, etc.).
 * File/Open menu to add files to the playlist.
 * Return of the X11 video output for those of us who do not have SDL.
 * Textmode interface for those of us who do not have Gnome.
 * aout and vout autospawn (maybe).

. Used instead p_vout->i_changes like in x11

 . patched 2 debian bugs
    (see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=vlc)
 . improved the snapshot generation

. Default is shown.
. Default in fullscreen is hidden.

 . version 0.2.50 for the Linux Expo
 . --overlay and --fulscreen options (only work with --vout sdl)
 . the vlc exits after the end of the stream, which prevents from having
   to kill it and relaunch it during a presentation, just script it like :

      for i in ~/mpeg/* ; do vlc --fullscreen --overlay --vout sdl $i ; done


 Yes, I know the --overlay stuff is fucking ugly. But *I* am not the one
  who redefines vout_sys_t in an interface-related source file. I won't
  change it until the vout/intf is finished being rewritten.

 Additional information: if "--overlay --fulscreen" doesn't center your
  picture, try with your screen geometry, eg:
  "--overlay --fullscreen --width 1024 --height 768"

* Fixed --width and --height support in SDL

 . fixed the bug-that-made-the-vlc-segfault-on-exit, which means that
   more than ever, � le client ne segfaulte pas �.

 . there was still a problem upon quitting: sometimes the null packet
   wasn't big enough to reach a decoder breakpoint, so I now create 10
   of them (since I can't make it bigger) to be sure. Meuuh, what do
   you think ?

 . fixed the Makefile to spare a few variables here and there.

 . reduced module hide delay, removed loading of the audio output
   plugins since they are now modules.

 . changed a few intf_Msg to intf_DbgMsg, and added "vout:", "intf:",
   and so on in a few other messages.

 . removed unused includes in the idct modules.

 . just removed a forgotten debug message in the setpalette code

.Tried to add it to stable, failed, probably because of the initialisation codes which are differents...

    from RGB masks);
  - cleaning of the fullscreen switch, still sucks but the surface is not
    reallocated and that's good (thanks to the magic function
    SDL_WM_ToggleFullScreen provided by sdl library :).

(previous commit foired)

 . this is a coding style patch which removes all "foo(bar){" constructions
   and most of the tabulations.
 . also, fixed a bug in the default subtitle track.
 . and made a few error messages more explicit, ie. changed "error: %s" to
   "foo error: couldn't initialize bar (%s)"
 . and removed a warning in intf_ctrl.c which isn't used anyway.

  - fixed segfault, it was probably a memory corruption but I'm not sure :) ;
  - video_output.c : compute picture size even if b_need_render == 0;

 . no need to add "\n" at the end of intf_*Msg() messages anymore.

  - one line deleted (it was for debug, bozo.)

  - Quantic start in fullscreen fixed.

    4:2:0 streams.
  - Removed vout code found in intf file to support fullscreen switching.
    Now only vout_SDL updates SDL data and intf only switch flags such as
    b_reopen_display and b_fullscreen in p_vout->p_sys.
  - Fixed a var name typo in input_programs.c which prevents vlc from
    compiling with --enable-debug option. (i_es_pid -> i_es_id :)

There's a segfault in the termination process due to sdl, I don't really
know what is the problem and I have to work today. Help me!

Good night suckers. I love you too :p

- "y" key switch between SDL and vlc YUV
- autodetection of Overlay support
- soon to come, colors :P

. Fixed a SDL API change about clipping (?).

.Removed mouse cursor in fullscreen mode
.Changed bits-per-pixel during window creation to X11 current depth

Although bits-per-pixel was initialized to 15 in every cases, the quality
changed when we switched X11 depth; so I don't know the real effect of this
constant in SDL.

Actually, I don't know why SDLclose was commented out.

The vlc gives a segfault when exiting if you use sdl. I still don't know why
