corruption in ifo data. This was the reason why some DVDs that worked with
0.2.80 no longer worked with newer version of vlc. They should work again
now.
This is certainly one of the last updates of the current DVD plugin until
we move to libdvdread that will give us navigation ES.
* Some optimization in imdct (all data are now aligned)
* SSE downmix now works for windows
* SSE imdct is desactivated for windows (MINGW32 doesn't know how to aligned data)
The Linux specific stuff is located in linux_cdrom_tools files.
For the time being, it only has title (tracks). Chapters will come if I
ever can read .vcd files.
I've modified Gnome and GTK+, not the others.
I've noticed a big bug, it segfaults at the end of a title. I will
have a look on this tomorrow.
Please be indulgent, it's my first peace of code ;-)
BUT this is UGLY ! We HAVE to find a way to make multicast function
under Win32.
BTW, it does now definitely read TS Streams, locally or from the network.
method in libdvdcss, the key is only checked at title start, not before each
chapter.
The behaviour when we have decrypted the disc key is to check the key before
each seek (although I'm still fighting against a bug).
1) Crack the title key (the method that was here before). The only change
here is that we search the key for the exact chapter we are seeking with
DVDSetArea (in case the key has changed within a title). It is maybe not a
good idea.
2) Crack the disc key, which allows us to decode instantly all title keys.
I've used an algorithm from Frank Stevenson ; it eats much memory (64MB),
and takes about 15 s at launch time.
3) Decode the disc key with player keys (libcss method). However, you need
licensed player keys at build time for that to work.
To choose between libdvdcss methods, a command line options is supplied:
vlc --dvdcss <method> where method is one of title, disc, key.
Note that all these changes only work with linux now, since we have to add a
specific ioctl to read title key. I hope that I haven't broken too many things.
* With -vvv modules now show up their scores ;
This afternoon I have been a little bored, so the feature of the day is :
* HTTP input support.
You can test it with :
./vlc http://mysite.com:80/mystream.mpg
It doesn't implement any kind of buffering, so make sure you have enough
bandwidth, otherwise you'll just get nothing.
It is compatible with HTTP proxy, just set http_proxy :
export http_proxy="http://proxy.mycompany.com:3128/"
Enjoy !
* Removed --enable-stats configuration directive. Stats are now activated
at runtime with --stats ;
* New intf_StatMsg() call ;
* Vout picture heap is now 8 pictures instead of 5 (better synchro) ;
* Tremendous enhancements in statistics display ;
* Better capabilities handling.
