If you want them, take them back from the svn attic, fix them and reintroduce them. I didn't remove the configure.ac snippets, they are still in but commented

closes #311

   another file. Also reduced MAX_DIR_PATH_LENGTH to 2560 since
   allocating anything larger than 4kB on the stack is likely to break
   on many OSes.

   replace spaces with '+'. That's what browsers do, and I think it's
   the right thing to do since vlc_UrlEncode was just breaking things.
   refs #90 and debian bug #279735

   [12140].

   variables : program, title, chapter, audio-es, video-es and spu-es.
   New RPN function "value 'variable' vlc_set_var" to change the input
   variables (variable can be any of those above).

   --sout-transcode-maxheight options, recommended to enforcea particular
   level of a video codec. Fixed --sout-transcode-fps when used in
   conjunction with --sout-transcode-threads=1.

     (Put both artist and name, protect comma with \ )

   liba52, etc. so --with-ffmpeg-mp3lame and stuff should still be
   useful in this case. The ffmpeg module needs to be built-in under OS X
   otherwise it doesn't link.

(like mplayer)

Don't explicitly flag the block. Clement could you check if fixes the break of local seeking from revision 12113.

Fix revision 12116 which broke other transcode options. The commandline for streaming the OSD menu has changed into a boolean option --sout-transcode-osd: ./vlc dvdsimple:///dev/dvd --sub-filter=osdmenu --osdmenu-file=share/osdmenu/default.cfg --extraintf rc --sout '#transcode{osd}:std{url=127.0.0.1:1234,access=udp,mux=ts}' 

   as the control=seek tag.

   case-insensitive way. Fixed again str_replace().

   bank instead of being fprintf'd to stderr.

   chars such as ', \', \ , etc. Fixed a bug when parsing the GET
   arguments. Added new RPN functions :
   - str_replace( a, b, c ) : replaces all occurences of b with c in a
   - addslashes( s ) : escapes all " and ' with a backslash
   - stripslashes( s ) :  the opposite
   - htmlspecialchars( s ) : replaces &"'<> with their &stuff; equivalent
   - realpath( s ) : returns an absolute file path (see realpath(3))
   And fixed a few memory leaks.

   $-_.+!*'(), unencoded, it also allows to encode any character. It is
   generally considered a good practive to urlencode $+!*'() because
   some buggy browsers (read: M$) have a problem with those characters.
   See the comments in http://fr.php.net/manual/en/function.rawurlencode.php
   for more information.

  Now uses the state variable instead of playlist_IsPlaying. The PLAYLIST_PAUSED state is no longer reliable since the introduction of the state variable for testing if playback is in a paused state. Perhaps we should remove this part of the playlist logic and keep it to RUNNING and STOPPED.

Forward port of branches/0.8.1-jpsaman-thedj revision 12070. The OSD menu subsystem consists of two parts a core part (src/osd, include/vlc_osd.h) and a subfilter (modules/video_filter/osdmenu.c). The OSD menu can be used locally or it can be streamed. It depends on the way the functionality is called from the vlc commandline. Currently there is only one way to make the subpictures appear on the video and that is through the rc-interface. The following commands are supported by it: "menu on" (show OSD menu), "menu off" (hide OSD menu), "menu left" (highlight button on the left), "menu right" (highlight button on the right), "menu up" (highlight button above), "menu down" (highlight button below) or "menu select" (perform hotkey action). When there is no button on the left, right, up or down then the menu-command will be ignored.

To stream use a commandline similar to this:

./vlc dvdsimple:///dev/dvd --sub-filter=osdmenu --osdmenu-file=share/osdmenu/default.cfg --extraintf rc --sout '#transcode{sfilter=osdmenu}:std{mux=ts,access=udp,url=127.0.0.1:1234}' -vvvv

For local playback a commandline like this is needed:

./vlc dvdsimple:///dev/dvd --sub-filter=osdmenu --osdmenu-file=share/osdmenu/default.cfg -vvvv

Have fun with the basic functionality - jpsaman.

The OSD menu pictures in two flavors a simple (default.cfg) and a more full version (dvd.cfg). (forward ported from branches/0.8.1-jpsaman-thedj)
