* XVideo window now has a black background, thanks to Shane Harper.
   * Fixed a heap corruption in dvd_css.c.

days: we have to initialize agid of authinfo struct.

-fixed a segfault on exit when DVDInit fails

-bugfix in input dvd

  * Updated ChangeLog and TODO list.
  * Added TODO to the .spec file.
  * Fixed Makefile.in so that `make snapshot' takes extras/* in account.

things.

   * Updated version information in RedHat and Debian package control files.

interface (courtesy of Eugenio Jarosiewicz & Colin Delacroix) ;
* Bumped up version number to 0.2.70.

  * Code cleanup: removed a few tabulations.
  * Fixed inline asm routines to remove all read/write operands.
  * Added <string.h> to most files to prevent warnings under FreeBSD.
  * Added "break;" after "default:" in case switches to prevent
    warnings when compiling with GCC 3.0pre.

switched back to the old packet allocation method for PS input, because
Sam does not want the new one ;)

Added a new packet allocation method that punish one's mother in PS input.
I hope there won't be too many segfaults because of it ;)
A few parameters must be adjusted to optimize this method; I'll do it later
because Proba Stat sucks ;)

  * added the GNU getopt library, which gets compiled in when getopt_long
    isn't available on the desired platform.
  * replaced the `--warning' flag with the standard cumulative `-v' flag.
    `-v' is like `--warning 3', and `-vvvv' is like `--warning 0'
    (`--warning' is still valid for those used to it)
  * cleaning in configure.in and Makefile.in, the Solaris port now
    builds and runs properly.

  * compilation fixes for the BeOS DVD ioctls
  * XVideo plugin enhancements by Shane Harper <shanegh@optusnet.com.au>

  * additional enhancements to the OS X DVD ioctl module
  * big cleaning of the BeOS DVD ioctl code, got rid of all Linuxisms

seems to have a bug that make the vlc crash on title/audio/spu change. I
hope that this bug will be fixed soon for the performance is poorer now

-add-ons and changes in gnome interface:
        *menu subdivision is done only if there are over 20 items,
        *in DVD mode next/prev apply to title,
        *in DVD mode, added a box with button to navigate through
         chapters.
This has not been finished yet (and it is not in gtk plugin then). And I
think I will leave toolbar next/prev buttons for playlist and add
button specifically for title change like for chapters.*

 * fixes for the Qt plugin compilation under Debian

 * heavy butchering in the CSS and DVD ioctl code to put all architecture-
   dependent code in dvd_ioctl.c

 * added almost fully-functional /dev/dvd driver for MacOS X in
   extras/DVDioctl; to build it:

    % cd extras/DVDioctl
    % pbxbuild
    % kextload build/DVDioctl.kext # note: kextload has to be run as root

   be aware that the license for the DVDioctl kernel extension is
   not GPL but APSL, because I borrowed some code from the Darwin kernel.

This (for some reason) improves audio/video sync

-New function input_ToggleES for interaction with interface.
-Changes in gnome interface : navigation menus are now splited, there
are radio item in menus and the code should be better.
-First step for dvd_ifo rewritting. Now allocation/disallocation is
being done as it has to be.
-Fixed a bug in title management that make dvd like Seven work.

  * fixed a typo

  * XVideo plugin courtesy of Shane Harper <shanegh@optusnet.com.au>
  * Makefile.in and configure.in fixes by Nilmoni Deb <ndeb@ece.cmu.edu>
  * A few syntax fixes in the plain X11 plugin

  - fixed SDL compilation, thanks to Colin.
  - disabled Altivec iDCT until it works.

multi-angle streams

-Changed seek function to prevent jump-at-will and to remove two bugs in
sector computing.

-Initialize some values in netlist (payload_discard wasn't which caused
frame dropping)

-Come back of multi-sector read which should make reading faster

Now, theyre should be very few reading error, and we have got back the
performance we had before my netlist polioting :p

  * Header cleaning: filled all empty authors fields, added CVS $Id stuff.
  * Fixes to aout_darwin.c by Colin Delacroix <colin@zoy.org>.
  * Fixes to configure.in, Makefile.in and main.c (Altivec detection)
    by Eugenio Jarosiewicz <ej0@cise.ufl.edu>.
  * Added Colin and Eugenio to the AUTHORS file.

  * Fixed a typo in the Altivec iDCT module declaration.
  * Made a few enhancements to the Makefile.

   * Altivec instructions autodetection.

   * 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,
