It avoids a potential segfault after a silent avcodec audio API breakage.

It fixes at least WMAP decoding.

DBus is synchronous

(We seldom have non ASCII characters here, but better safe than sorry)

Currently, only the core supports this correctly, however.

Note that this means key configuration values become case sensitive
(case insentivity would be too complicated), but this should not be
a problem so long as the core key<->string functions are always used.

This will allow returning dynamically generated strings

recent xcb_key_symbols_get_keycode() now returns a pointer

Keep old API (as present in Debian Lenny for example) as requested by nefrir
GetModifier() is broken when using the new API, it might be broken as
well when using the old API.

Documents / source code of functions used in GetModifier() are very
welcome, libxcb only ships XML descriptions and the generated source
code is very unreadable.

WSADuplicateSocket() doesn't exist, so just skip that bit of code...

Add some comments to explain the values

back to the drawingboard
This reverts commit 6b55ee51.

this seems to break ar-changes alltogether, lets try again
This reverts commit 9810e995.

This should help on aspect-ratio issues with apple hd mov-trailers (when
streaming/transcoding)

 The detection is based on the progressive/interlaced flags transported at
the codec level. As such, it is not really reliable (for 25fps at least).

 As soon as a picture is detected as interlaced, the configured deinterlace
mode is applied. After 30s of progressive video, the filter is removed.
The hysteresis helps with unreliable interlaced flags.
