gives an invalid one. (I hope it doesn't break anything)

 Original message:
    Hi there,

    I have done another small modification. If you remove a hot-pluggable video
    device, like an usb web cam, during capturing, vlc floods the driver with
    ioctls. This leads to Kernel Ooops in some drivers.

    The modified v4l.c module does the following now:
    "GrabVideo" returns "VLC_ETIMEOUT" if the question "Did we wait long enough"
    can be answered with yes. If there is a real error in "GrabCapture" or
    "GrabMJPEG", the code "VLC_EGENERIC" is returned. So the calling function
    can distinguish between these two situations. "VLC_EGENERIC" was always
    returned before.
    The function "Read" uses this information to leave the while-loop in case of
    an error, and it returns a "-1" to the calling function. "Read" calls
    "msleep", as it was before, in case of a VLC_ETIMEOUT.

    The brightness-control stuff described below is still in the code. Please
    feel free to use, modify or ignore this file. A short feedback would be
    nice.

    Bye,

 without destroying/recreating a new input. (Will be usefull for streaming).
 ( A value of -1 means repeat for ever).

* modules/access/cdda/*: got rid of the demux. The access plugin will now build a WAV header which will allow this plugin to work with the dts/a52 demuxers as well as the wav demuxer.

problems. Sigh.

Enabled PDA GUI again, use --enable-pda. Question why was it disabled without notifying the maintainer? ????

- Fixed the playlist_AddExt() call
- Fixed a compiler warning

* configure.ac: check for the xmlTextReader extension if libxml2 (required for skins2).

* configure.ac, NEWS: added mod and pva plugins.

- Make sure that lnb-lof1 and lnb-lof2 can be overriden by the commandline syntax frequency=xx:lnb-lof1=xx:lnb-lof2=xx
- Added value {A,a} to polarization=xx to force INVERSION_AUTO
- Sanatized a few error messages

    + No longer build a local libmpeg2 since it entered sid.
    + Build the livedotcom plugin.
  * toolbox:
    + No longer remove flac, speex and matroska from the woody build; I will
      provide clean backports.

    + Allow to use --enable-livedotcom without --with-livedotcom-tree so that
      we can use an installed version of libliveMedia et al.

    + Only activate the Matroska plugin if -lebml_pic or -lebml were found.

  duration for subs is stored in byte1 of the data packet and who
  directed me to the mkvtoolnix code.

           follow soon).

    + Updated Debian-specific build notes.

 * fixed a nasty bug in vlc_atoll.(closes #1763)

   "none" and "cube". Sorry, couldn't resist ;)

 * Updated for bookmark support.
   See http://www.giggo.de/dbox2/movieplayer.html for details
   (patch by Christof Baumgaertner)

* modules/gui/skins2/Modules.am: added missing file for make dist.

* ALL: I am a morron.

* modules/codec/ffmpeg/video.c: another fix for switching postproc on the fly.

* configure.ac: forgot one version number and added the aiff demux.

* ALL: bumped version number to 0.7.1 in preparation for the release.

Fail ./configure when ffmpeg/avcodec.h or postproc/postproc.h are not found and --disable-ffmpeg is not used.

- Always have a space between ";then" the configure script does not like this. It should be "; then" or better put "then" on the next line.
- Add a AC_ARG_ENABLE for cdda

  Though this still remains a hack. People should just use 'Open Disc' menu.
  I see no way to retrieve the original (non parition version) /dev entry,
  from the mounted drive.

* modules/codec/ffmpeg/video.c: another fix for post-processing.
