* ./modules/access/http.c: fixed a segfault (unchecked strstr return value).
* ./src/input/input_ext-plugins.c: removed platform-specific code and put
it in plugins. This leads to some code duplication but I have an evil
plan to get rid of that, too.
demux plugins (ps, ts, but also dvd*).
* ./src/input/mpeg_system.c: removed MPEG-related stuff from the vlc core.
* ./src/misc/modules.c: max recursion level is now 5.
* ./modules/access/dvdplay/es.c: fixed a buffer overflow.
* ./src/libvlc.c, ./include/vlc/vlc.h: created reentrant versions of the
libvlc API.
* ./src/vlc.c: vlc uses the non-reentrant libvlc functions.
* ./mozilla/vlcplugin.c: the mozilla plugin uses the reentrant functions.
* ./debian/*: created packages for libvlc0-dev.
As for video output 4, this breaks almost everything, but I'll slowly
do what remains to be fixed during the weekend.
Changes in vlc:
===============
* vlc is now a very small program (20 lines) which uses the libvlc API;
it is quite simple for the moment but can be extended in the future.
* interfaces, decoders, video outputs, etc. are now almost the same
objects (yes, I know, this is C++ redone in C) and are structured in
a tree. More about this later, but basically it allows the following
nice features:
- several interfaces
- several playlists with several outputs
- input plugins spawning helper interfaces (will be used for DVD menus)
- anything spawning anything; I swear there are useful uses for this!
* libvlc can be used in other programs; I'm currently writing a Mozilla
plugin for my employer.
Things currently broken:
========================
* most interfaces, most ports
* the playlist handling (almost finished rewriting this though). This means
no file can be played from the GUI, you need to use the commandline. This
also means it segfaults at EOF, when exiting the program, and it sometimes
refuses to open a file when asked to.
when closing a networking stream instead of input_FDClose(). It is due
to WIN32 because we have to call closesocket() instead of close() to
close the socket. The problem was : windows did not leave the multicast
group when closing the socket.
* input_ext-plugins.c : where is located the function
* *.h : function declaration
* udp.c, http.c : these modules now call input_FDNetworkClose()
* ./include/video.h: moved vout_CopyPicture out of the way, an inline
function did not make sense here.
* ./include/video.h: moved vout_ChromaCmp out of the way.
* ./plugins/avi/fourcc.h, ./include/video.h: merged these two files into
video.h.
* ./include/os_specific.h: this file is now always included.
* ./include/debug.h: removed this file which was almost useless, and moved
ASSERT to common.h.
* ./include/common.h: fixed vlc_memalign and changed its prototype to
follow posix_memalign's.
for BT ;
* --6 and --4 options to force IPv6 or IPv4 (FIXME: it should be -6 and
-4 but I don't know how to do it with the new configuration module) ;
* Channel manager now uses a socket from the network plug-in and is more
portable (and probably broken, too :) ;
* input_ReadPS and input_ReadTS are now in mpeg_system.c to be more
easily reused by plug-ins other than mpeg_ps and mpeg_ts.
That's all for tonight.
- Major rewrite of the buffer core functions
- Modularity of access plugins (file, udp, http)
- Modularity of network stack (ipv4, soon ipv6)
- Autodetection of the type of stream
And a new killing feature : HTTP streams are now seekable.
Please note that dvd, dvdread and vcd plug-ins are broken and thus disabled.
* Fixed a bug in the video decoder initialization :-p ;
* Added --smp option and several hooks in src/input/input_ext-intf.c ;
* Grayscale mode now turns off chroma IDCT.
