swscale is enabled. This allows older apps (such as vlc 0.8.6i) to run
without a specific ffmpeg package option and thus the swscale option is no
longer needed.
update to the boot package:
-#include <boost/detail/atomic_count.hpp>
+#include <boost/detail/atomic_count_pthreads.hpp>
As a side effect of this (the boost update and removed patch) youtube videos
now seem to play much more reliably under firefox3 on NetBSD 4.0
Bump package revision
#include <libpostproc/postprocess.h> to
#include <postprocess.h>
As is no longer needed (and breaks configure) with latest ffmpeg,
and instead patch filter_pp.c to include "libpostproc/postprocess.h"
instead of "postprocess.h"
Bump PKGREVISION
changes:
-Move the libcdio cddasrc element to -ugly, because of the GPL license
(no difference for pkgsrc, cdio isn't built)
remove build of v4l2 - I'll put this into a seperate pkg
Changes between 0.8.6i and 0.9.1:
---------------------------------
Note: version 0.9.0 was skipped due to bugs being discovered at the last
minute.
Important notes:
----------------
* This release will not work with Windows 98/ME and Mac OS X 10.3.9 (Panther)
* The HTTP interface is now only available on the local machine by default.
If you want to make it available from other machines, you will have to
edit the ".hosts" file.
- On UNIX/Linux, the file is in /usr/share/vlc/http/.hosts
If you're using the old http interface, it's located in
/usr/share/vlc/http/old/.hosts
- On Windows they are in C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\http\.hosts and
C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\http\old\.hosts
- On Mac OS X, you can find it in VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/share/http/.hosts
and respectively in VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/share/http/old/.hosts
* This version of VLC contains a new interface for Windows and Linux.
This interface has a fullscreen controller and simplified preferences.
This interface lacks the "Streaming Wizard" that used to be present in VLC
0.8.6.
* The behavior of --sout-keep was changed. It's now activated by default.
* The marq, mosaic and logo commands in the rc interface changed. They
now require a target name as their first argument. Example:
vlc --sub-filter "marq@test{marquee=Hello}" -I rc <somevideo>
You can then use commands like: @test marq-marquee Goodbye
If you didn't name the object using @test, its name will default to the
plugin name (hence 'marq') in this example.
These new commands are also available in the telnet interface.
* The "rtp" access output module has been removed.
Please use the RTP stream output instead, e.g.:
Old: '#std{access=rtp,mux=ts,dst=239.255.1.2:5004,sap}'
New: '#rtp{mux=ts,dst=239.255.1.2,port=5004,sap}'
* You now need to append --m3u-extvlcopt to your command line to enable
EXTVLCOPT options parsing in m3u playlists. Note that only a limited set
of options is available to m3u playlists (CVE-2007-6683).
* The old access:url syntax is no longer supported to resolve ambiguities
with some file names. Use access://url instead.
E.g.: vlc:quit -> vlc://quit ;
udp:@239.255.12.12 -> udp://@239.255.12.12
* The ffmpeg module has been removed and replaced by the new avcodec,
avformat, swscale (or imgresample if you use a swscale-less ffmpeg build)
and postproc modules.
* The web plugins ActiveX (IE)/Firefox/Mozilla/Safari now recognize the
following states: IDLE/CLOSE=0, OPENING=1, BUFFERING=2, PLAYING=3, PAUSED=4,
STOPPING=5, FORWARD=6, BACKWARD=7, ENDED=8, ERROR=9. With FORWARD and
BACKWARD being reserved for future implementations and are thus not
functional atm.
* Croping and padding in transcode are now done using the croppadd video
filter. For example:
transcode{vcodec=mp2v,vfilter=croppadd{cropttop=20,cropbottom=30,paddleft=100}}
* Canvas setting in transcode is now done using the canvas video filter.
For example:
transcode{vcodec=mp2v,vfilter=canvas{width=640,height=480}}
* Glide video output module has been removed.
* Due to lack of maintainer, the Skins interface might not work properly.
It does not work on windows for this version. Help is needed!
