still not working under Borland).

    about 2000 lines of code.

    I could not test everything on every architecture, so please report
    any module breakage (especially on BeOS, OSX and QNX).

* plugins/directx/vout_directx.h: removed unused variables.
* plugins/directx/vout_events.c: fixed resizing bug.

* include/vlc_threads.h: fixed the --fast-mutex option.

* plugins/directx/vout_directx.*: the directx vout plugin now uses the
IID_IDirectDrawSurface2 interface, this shouldn't break anything and we should now
support WinNT4+DirectX3.
Some code cleanup too.
* plugins/directx/vout_events.c: small bugfix.

* include/vlc_threads.h,include/main.h,src/misc/threads.c,src/misc/win32_specific.c:
reverted Win32 pthread implementation to the old code. Fixed vlc_cond_broadcast() for
WinNT/2K/XP. Additional vlc_cond_* implementations for Win9x.
* src/libvlc.h: renamed --fast_pthread option into --fast-mutex. Added a
--win9x-cv-method option to choose which vlc_cond_* implementation we want on Win9x.

* plugins/network/ipv6.c: attempt to fix the win32 implementation. Multicast should even
work (untested) although we'll need to find a way to replace if_nametoindex() to have a
fully functionnal win32 port.

Fixed on top function.

Web :p.

* ./plugins/macosx/vout_macosx.c : additional QuickTime fix, thanks to
  David Eldred <skipper@apple.com>.

* ./plugins/macosx/vout_macosx.c : additional QuickTime fix, thanks to
  David Eldred <*******@apple.com>.

  src/input/*: removed some testcode and some unnecessary debug messages

some corruption leading to evil crash :)

* ./src/input/* : fixed a memory leak

failing cleanly if it is >= 400

    found (p_fifo might be NULL).
  * ./plugins/mpeg_system/mpeg_es.c, ./src/input/input_ext-dec.c: fixed
    a deadlock issue with demuxers waiting on p_fifo->data_lock.

(incomplete and untested).

but sometimes it's in fact MPEG-4, thx titer ).

 * mp4 : add capability to read mov with mp3 track. But it seems that
mad doesn't like too much fragmented data packets, and thus breaks the
audio.( since with '--codec dummy' I'm able to read resulting audio file
without any problem :)

  * ./plugins/filter/distort.c: fixed a typo in option names.

   Usage: "--codec dummy" will use the dummy decoder for all streams, and
  save the stream to a stream.1242 file (where 1242 is the internal vlc
  object ID). If the input file was for instance an mpeg file, you can
  play one of the resulting files using an mp3 player.

  * ./mozilla/vlcplugin.h: added .mov and .mp4 files to the plugin.
  * ./Makefile: we no longer try to merge .a files into libvlc.a, but rather
    add them to the vlc-config output.

 libdvdplay installed (available from videolan CVS), and request plugins
compilation in the usual way:
	--enable-dvdplay.
Note that libdvdplay needs libdvdread and libdvdcss.

Currently it has only been tested under linux, with gnome interface (optional)
and xvideo output.

What works (more or less):
 -DVD reading in some rare cases :) (title and menus),
 -Menu pause,
 -Seeking,
 -Selecting directly a specific title/chapter/angle,
 -Changing audio, sub-picture, angle during playback,
 -Interactive menus with mouse only.

What is missing:
 -Menu buttons highlighting (needs spudec patch),
 -Keyboard interaction (needs a specific part in port specific plugins),
 -A specific interface to navigate through menus (needs that I move my ass),
 -Interactive menus won't work with other output plugins so long as they
  have not been patched to send mouse/keyboard events to vlc interface,
 -Whatever you need.

Known bugs (bugs in libdvdplay mostly):
 -Seeking in some menus or intro titles (bad vobu map),
 -Read/seek error with some DVDs,
 -the configure needs tweaking,
 -numerous segfaults,
 -decoder/output modules locking error,
 -fuzzy colors in menus when spudec is active (default in menus).

The plugin is not guaranteed to work anywhere outside my computer. If it break your, don't come and complain to me :).

 * ffmpeg and mp4: some clean up and change the way ffmpeg is
initialised.

Implemented muting

Implemented a intf_vlc_wrapper to "shield" the BeOS code from the underlying
vlc structurs, yet to be completed.
Attempted to fix subtitle and audio selection, currently not working.

  * include/input_ext-intf.h: killed p_es->b_audio, since i_cat already fills
    its purpose.
  * include/input_ext-intf.h: killed p_es->i_type in favour of p_es->i_fourcc.
  * include/video.h: killed p_pic->p_plane->b_margin; now i_visible_pitch is
    always valid.

  * ./src/libvlc.h: replaced --mpeg-adec and --ac3-adec with --codec; see
    vlc --help for more information.

  * include/video.h: removed fourcc values which should _not_ be global
    (thanks fenrir for convincing me).
  * ALL: video output plugins use the VLC_FOURCC macro to build their fourccs.
  * ./plugins/beos/InterfaceWindow.cpp: removed the last remaining call to
    input_ChangeES.

   Things I'm not sure about and need comments:
    - I used "mpga" and "mpgv" for MPEG (1+2) audio and video fourcc values.
    - I also introduced "spu ", "lpcm" and "ac3 ".
    - I removed for instance "MP4_GetCodec" because it wasn't really
      used except for the description string. I hope this change did not
      break anything really important.
    - fenrir, I must have broken a lot of things you wrote. Sorry in advance.

    vasprintf arguments to NULL for extra safety.

    selection string. "any" matches any module, and "none" always fails.

    You can for instance use "--vout none" to disable video output, or
    "--intf gtk,any" to use the gtk interface or any other one if gtk isn't
    available. Hope it's clear :)
