* udp.c: restored the old syntax udp:server_addr@destination_addr
 * libvlc.h: updated 'vlc --help'

 To do an IGMPv3 query under Windows XP do:
 vlc udp:<source_addr>@<multicast_addr>
 Note: under previous versions of Windows, it will fail to join the group.

* Makefile.am: added vlc_meta.h

  And a first cut at handling transparancy values properly. However
  to do this we merely needed to

pixmap.[ch]: write our own routines for retrieving a close colormap index
  given a pixel value. Well, and also had to

video_chroma/i420_rgb.[ch]: save the RGB colormap that is allocated.

Modules.am: forgot new pixmap.c

others: more misc abstraction/cleanup

 it will only be used by demuxers).
 * ninput.h: added DEMUX_GET_META, this way demuxer won't have to touch
 playlist and input_InfoAdd and ...

 Now we can stream a (complete) dvd with language informations :)

 * dvdnav: select the right SPU track only while creating the ES when we
 are not in the menu. (this way user selection won't be lost).

 expanded to the real language name.

entry.

Rest: Mostly more shuffling of definitions for modularity; doc
improvements.

(Also I need to copy these changes between computers and this is the
most expedient way. RV24 transparancy has been tested on a big-endian
box.)

* modules/gui/macosx/prefs.?: New preferences parse code.
  New widgets aren't being created just yet.
  OS X version is broken now, but it already was. we need to fix this before
  a release. Code is largely ported from wxwindows...

 still frames, it doesn't handle the es selection (this way --sout-all
 will work).
  A major problem is that ES aren't added in a logical way like dvd and
dvdread do (audio/video). I don't know how to retrieve it from dvdnav.
(it's the same for dvdnav and dvdnavsimple)

* modules/codec/speex.c, src/misc/win32_specific.c: compilation fixes.

* configure.ac: fixed typo.

much memory, and was inconsistent, especially with input_CreateThread
taking an array of options

* Revert to using array of options

* To add an item with options:
    - either use playlist_ItemNew, ItemAddOption, and then AddItem
      (useful if you don't have all your options in an array)
    - either use playlist_AddExt (use this if all your options are
      already in an array)

* To add an item without options: use playlist_Add

You can still add options after an item has been added by using either
playlist_AddOption or playlist_ItemAddOption

* Attempt to improve API and solve thread safety issues.
  - playlist_Item* functions allow to touch items only.
    p_item->lock must be used when needed
    (playlist_ItemNew, playlist_ItemDelete, playlist_Item*Info,
     playlist_ItemSet* )

  - playlist_ItemGetById and ItemGetByPos give you playlist_items
    for GetByPos, you should have the playlist lock

At the moment, the playlist_Set* and playlist_*Info functions are kept (they work with position) but should be avoided.

 MODULE_SHORTCUT_MAX ;)

* src/misc/configuration.c, include/configuration.h: added a change_action_add()method to associate an action (that can be triggered through a gui) to a config var.
* modules/gui/wxwindows/preferences_widgets.*: implemented partial support for change_action_add().
* modules/access/dshow/dshow.cpp: use change_action_add() to refresh the list of devices and to add an option to configure a device.

 * defined a CPU_CAPABILITY_SSE2
src/libvlc.(c|h):
 * implemented --see2/--no-sse2

all: more code cleanup and perhaps slightly better bigendian handling though
     more common routines/includes.

   + Unkludged a lot the way the OpenGL output was working until now
   + Optimized here and here. Please test!
