* major rewrite of the directx video plugin to adapt it to the new vout4
    architecture. This plugin has also been through a major clean-up
    and it is now much more robust and optimized.

* Fixed a few problems with the win32 build.

* Replaced the "overlay" command line option with "nooverlay". The
    former was confusing and useless because overlays were used by
    default anyway.

  * ./vlc.spec: imported MandrakeSoft's new spec file.
  * ./debian/control: fixed build-dependencies for vlc-mad.

  * ./debian/rules: fixed the vlc-arts and vlc-mad package builds.

The gnome/gtk interface should no longer user p_input->stream before it
has been initialized.

to have it initialized when we call it in the interface.

- added support for S8 and U16 aout (not tested)
- The sound is very dirty in U8 mode. I don't know if it comes from the
8 bit mode itself or from the S16->U8 conversion.

-Patch of libdvdread to do readv on regular files (dvd copied on hard drive).
Not completed, and little tested yet ; when it is completed, this patch should
be submitted to libdvdread developers.

-Patch of libdvdcss to decrypt vobs when they are not on a block device.

  * ./debian/control: fixed Debian build-depends.
  * ./include/config.h: changed RELEASE to HAVE_RELEASE because RELEASE
    is already defined in <scsi/scsi.h> under Linux.

* Fixed issues in the PTS handling of the mad plug-in (incomplete).

*With DVDCSS_METHOD=disc or key, the keys are no longer buffered on start.
The title key is still read at each block but it is checked for change
before decryption.

- le coup de gr�ce: all the code in audio output is now factorized (except
for ac3 spdif) in aout_common.c/.h
- aout thread functions are declared with a macro

TODO:
- test unsigned 8 bit output, and implement S8 and U16 outputs
- multi-channel support
- check if resampling takes the PTS into account (and fix it)

HUGE cleanings in audio output:
- removed AOUT_INTF_*_FIFO, which where not used
- factorized S16StereoPlay, U8MonoPlay, and so on.., in a single
  function aout_FillBuffer (in aout_common.c)
  (unsigned 8bit may be broken, but I have no stream to test with :(

- last step to be done: factorize aout_s8, aout_s16, ... thanks to a macro

* A few fixes for the Win32 build.

* Fixed all the problems related to ToggleFullScreen().

    HAVE_DYNAMIC_PLUGINS.

  * ./plugins/chroma/i420_rgb16.c: 24/32 bpp software YUV.
  * ./plugins/ggi/ggi.c: activated double buffering.
  * ./src/video_output/vout_pictures.c: we create more Xv pictures to
    get smoother rendering.

  * BSD compilation fix suggested by Steven M. Schultz.

- beginning of code factorization in aout_s16 (more cleaning will come)
- As for libmad, I have tried to create the aout fifo in libmad_output,
  to open it with the right sample rate, but strangely it didn't work.

  * ./src/input/input.c: fixed a few segfaults caused by the dummy plugin.
  * ./plugins/mpeg_adec/mpeg_adec.c: fixed a segfault due to misuse of
    DecoderError.
  * ./plugins/x11/xcommon.c: replaced XFlush with XSync. This must be the
    fourth time someone has to commit this, so I added a reminder :-)

no network stream.

Please, have a look at the fix to check it doesn't break anything else.

  * ./src/interface/intf_eject.c: BSD/OS port by Steven M. Schultz.

  * ./include/modules_inner.h: replaced _X with __VLC_SYMBOL because _X was
    already a system macro under MacOS X.
  * ./plugins/dummy/dummy.c: fixed vlc:loop, vlc:quit, etc. entries.
  * ./plugins/glide/glide.c: activated double buffering.
  * ./plugins/mga/xmga.c: started writing an xmga plugin; doesn't work yet.
  * ./src/input/input.c: fixed the input memory leak, and the insane thread
    spawning we got with vlc:loop.
  * ./src/misc/intf_eject.c: disc ejection routine courtesy of Julien Blache,
    currently Linux-only.

are now opened directly in the right mode (works with mpeg_adec and
ac3_adec, not tested with mad)
- first attempt to implement mono output (doesn't work yet)

It is selected by default if you have it compiled.

<twood@lucent.com> !

  ./debian/control: updated list of supported architectures.
  ./share/*: added 16x16 and 32x32 versions of PNG icons.

  * ./plugins/mga/mga.c: removed the mgammx module and put the code in
    the chroma_i420_ymga module instead. This introduces a slight
    performance issue as we now need to memcpy() the Y plane, but I have
    some vout4 enhancements on their way which make this point moot.
  * ./debian/changelog: imported official Debian changelog.
  * ./debian/control: activated the vlc-mad and vlc-arts packages; package
    builds should now work again.
  * ./plugins/dvd/dvd.c: solved a symbol resolution issue when vlc was
    compiled without libdvdcss which overflowed the return stack.
  * ./plugins/ggi/ggi.c: ported the GGI plugin to vout4.
  * ./plugins/glide/glide.c: ported the Glide plugin to vout4 (untested).
  * ./src/input/input.c: prepared everything for multi-input mode; since
    no interface is yet prepared to handle this, I changed them so that
    they just use the first available input for now. This may break other
    things, but I promise I'll eventually repair everything :-)

  * ./plugins/mga/mga.c: pipeline and cache optimizations.

  * ./plugins/mga/mga.c: MMX-accelerated version of the MGA plugin.
  * ./plugins/mpeg_vdec/Makefile: Little workaround for PA-Risc compilation.

  * ./plugins/fb/fb.c: ported the framebuffer video output to vout4.

  * ./src/audio_output/aout_s16.c: fixed a segfault. It may have unexpected
    side effects because I don't know this part of the code, but at least
    it doesn't crash anymore.
  * ./plugins/beos/beos.cpp: first attempt at porting the BeOS plugin to the
    new video output and module systems. Doesn't work nor even compile yet.
  * ./configure.in: we now check the gtk-config version.

  * ./plugins/mga/mga.c: we use the MGA_VID_FSEL ioctl to select the
    frame to be displayed. Unfortunately, increasing the number of
    frames doesn't seem to work and makes the picture stutter...

  * ./Makefile: fixed a bug when no builtins were selected.
  * ./plugins/mga/mga.c: ported the MGA video output to vout4. Only does YV12
    for the moment, and there is a strange bug with some streams which gives
    only a green image. Needs to be looked at.
  * ./plugins/x11/xcommon.c: fixed a few typos.
