We don't need to know it's a pointer and can save 2 characters.
No functional changes. This is simply renaming "dec->p_fmt_in",
"decoder->p_fmt_in", "dec.p_fmt_in" and "packetizer->p_fmt_in"
see e967f81f6a.
note, this does **not** affect cat-based module selection items
(of which there are just three in use by the core), since that
mechanism uses subcats not cats.
Currently, when encoding an ES category, the encoders had to check
whether they supported the ES category and return an error, forcing many
modules to be loaded and probed for nothing.
By splitting by ES category, we ensure that most encoder that would have
not supported the encoding anyway won't be probed. As a side effect, it
improves the documentation in the help output by only listing encoders
that will actually be able to encode the format, for instance in
aenc/venc/senc options in the transcode module. It will also provide a
better way for the UI to list the available encoders.
The config "advanced" flag was unused and has been removed by
6a7a137f7b.
It has been removed from many add_*() macros, but not all. Remove it
from the remaining macros.
where identical to shorttext, or near enough.
bad because:
- wastes resources.
- useless tooltips in prefs GUI (poor UX) - tooltip longtext should add
something of value.
- useless repetition of text in certain help output.
in some cases they differed only in full-stop, creating unnecessary extra
burden on translators.
Do not declare *_sys_t typedefs globally in vlc_common.h. Instead,
declare them locally in each module that provides a definition.
This paves the way to move C++ definitions into anonymous namespaces in
order to respect C++ ODR.
The picture_resource_t and sout_stream_id_sys_t typedefs will be handled
separately, since they require specific additional changes.

Use only one callback for every decoder types:
int (*pf_decode)(decoder_t *, block_t *p_block);
There is now only one way to send output frames/blocks from a decoder module:
using decoder_QueueVideo(), decoder_QueueAudio() and decoder_QueueSub()
functions.
This fixes transcoding not receiving any output when a decoder used
decoder_Queue*() function.
The pf_packetize callback is kept unchanged. A packetizer shouldn't be
asynchronous at all (and this simplify the locking for decoder core).
The pf_decode callback returns, for now, only one value: SUCCESS. This will
allow a module to send more status.
Decoder modules are now responsible for calling decoder_UpdateVideoFormat()
before decoder_NewPicture().
In a lot of modules, decoder_UpdateVideoFormat() could be called in a better
place. Just after dec->fmt_out is updated for example.
For now, a lot of decoder/packetizer are also flushing on
BLOCK_FLAG_DISCONTINUITY flag. Some others are also flushing on
BLOCK_FLAG_CORRUPTED flag (omxil, videotoolbox, avcodec audio).
This patch doesn't change the current behavior.
But maybe we shouldn't flush anymore on DISCONTINUOUS/CORRUPTED.
If blocks are marked BLOCK_FLAG_DISCONTINUITY then do not drop them,
unless BLOCK_FLAGS_CORRUPTED is set. Instead flush old blocks from decoder
queue and restart at this new stream access point (new timeline).

The variable len is a raw 32 bit value read using GetDWBE. If this
value is larger than UINT32_MAX - sizeof(eos), this will cause an
integer overflow in the subsequent call to malloc, and finally a
buffer overflow when calling memcpy. We fix this by checking len
accordingly.

Re-license almost all the playback modules to LGPLv2.1+ with
authorization from their respective contributors (230+)
This includes:
- access, codec, packetizers, demux
- audio filters, audio mixers, audio output
- video filters, video chroma, video output
- text renderers
- XML parser
- ARM NEON and SSE2 optimisations (mostly for chromas and filters)
Some modules are not concerned:
- BDA and DShow access modules because Manol Manolov is AWOL
- Real RTSP, because it is derived from Xine
- x264 and t140 because they are encoders only
- DLL Loader, because it is derived from MPlayer
- DTS packetizer, because Jon Lech Johansen is AWOL
- Shine and WMAfixed, because they are derived from Rockbox
- Real demuxer, as it is derived from MPlayer and Wang Bo is AWOL
- MPC demuxer, as Yavor Doganov is AWOL
- Tivo demuxer, because it is derived from an MPlayer fork
- Playlist demuxer, (WPL and ZPL parts missing), because suheaven is AWOL
- iOS audio output and video display, because author refuses the license change
- Equalizer and compressor, because Ronald Wright is AWOL
- Mono, Headphone and Dolby, because author refuses the license change
- hqdn3d and yadif, because they are from MPlayer/libavfilter
- remoteosd, because it derives from RealVNC code
- MMX optimisations, because Ollie Lho, from SiS, is AWOL
- Rotate, because it depends on GPL motion
Nota Bene:
- Some modules depend on GPL-only libraries, a LGPL module does not mean
that the resulting binary module will be LGPL.
Libraries affected would include liba52, libdvdcss, libdvdnav, libdvdread,
faad2, libdca, libmad, libmpeg2, libpostproc, SRC, sid, zvbi and probably others.
The configuration system cannot store both a static list and a dynamic
one (and AFAIK, it never could). It only makes to use either a static
list or a callback.
Hand-crafted code in plugin descriptor is not allowed. And the code was
unsurprisingly buggy.
