This should keep the volume latency under 20 ms. This will break
amplification as DirectSound is only capable of attenuation.

These interfaces must be released on the interface that created them.

It can fail in rare circumstances such as context failures (in other
words, PulseAudio daemon crash or exit).

They are in src/os2/filesystem.c.

This currently assumes that VLC uses QueryPerformanceTimer() in its
implementation of mdate(). This is currently true but... ?

Time can be greater than duration, when you scroll right to much.
Furthermore, this commit moves the duplicated code into a own method.

The stream must be stopped before it can be flushed (reset).

Support for the NSDistributedNotificationCenter based methods
was removed in Growl 1.3.

These patches now should integrate better into the StandardPanel etc.
Parts had to be rearranged to be able to merge some code from libqxt into the source.

On Windows playing items like dvd:// or screen:// causes strange shortcuts in the user recently used folder.

for some information. The solution calls SHAddToRecentDocs only if make_path
returns a valid path.

This is not fully fixed, but it works after a state change

Close #6812

PlaylistDialog::getInstance was duplicating the playlist widget
instanciated in main interface. This explains the empty playlist
bug of the popup dialogs replacing the current playlist by
parenting their menu using getInstance().
To avoid further mistakes, PlaylistWiget's constructor is now only
available to playlistdialog, which also manages the widget
through the different configurations (embedded or floating).
Dialog also now saves and restores geometry, which only happened
when the widget was on its side.

Close #6813

an option to switch the modes is in the works

This is _very_ incomplete and buggy:
 - no time synchronization,
 - no sample format, sample rate and channels mask negotiation,
 - no channels reordering,
 - no S/PDIF and HDMI pass-through,
 - no volume control,
 - no device selection,
 - no fail-over to another device when needed,
 - leaking COM thread data at exit (missing dedicated thread),
 - incomplete build system integration.

But it compiles (with mingw-w64) and outputs working audio.

This fixes console logs on Wine for me.

This avoids leaking the Unix socket to child processes.

This is just a partial fix.
Fixes #6148

The scope of cookies without a domain is limited to the current server.
The current logic is always wrong because either it's the same server
and the new cookie should supersede the old one, or it's a different
server and the old cookie should not be sent. This logic is still far
from RFC-compliant, but at least it should get it right some of the time.
