This makes little sense to me. It could print errors directly, since it
_is_ the user interface.

Good ideas to improve the layout and the text are MORE than needed.

Qt4: change a bit the ui from sout to use the SoutInputBox and etter Sout integration and panel changing.

-Fix dshow "none" deivice be recognized as none
 Note that another patch concerning var_optionParse string
 dequoting should be applied for this to be fixed
 ( the concept is not to provide quoted strings to dshow options )
 -Account for the case when BOTH devices could not be opened
   (file an error, instead of seeming to play)
 -Cleaned a little
 -Added dbg and error msgs
 -Added coments

Qt: step one for Sout Dialog rework. Introduce a kind of progression and gives more space to MRL-customization.

Since none of our otehr threads exist at the end, this is safe.

(otherwise we would much more serious problems than the update checker)

config_PutPsz() and var_SetString() are calling strdup() internally.
This reverts commit 86783662.

This doesn't mean I don't share the opinion, but let's try to ease the work for packagers that get bugs on that part.
And of course VLC + debian-multimedia in debian is still completly broken...

Contrary to commit 719f12a6 log, input_GetItem() does not check for a
lock on the input. There may be need for locking here(?), but taking the
object lock would definitely not help, as this was the only place is the
entire tree using the generic object lock on an input object.

 - use automatic structure instead of heap
 - retain the playlist lock only while needed

By the way:
 - the OSX implementation seemed buggy w.r.t. fullscreen,
 - the X11 implementation seemed buggy w.r.t. both vout_window and events,
 - the OMAPFB implementation was bogus.

as discussed^Wmonologued on the mailing list.

...and express the rest in terms of that.
Also small documentation fixes and VLC_UNUSED() instead of (void).
