* Initialize libvlc with appropriate arguments on OS X
* Prevent libvlc 2.2 argument warnings by not using the deprecated
--album-art argument when building against 2.2. This argument will be
removed entirely in a future feature release as its presence only
reflected the libvlc default behavior anyway.
* Ensure playback is terminated when encountering an invalid queued
MediaSource.
* Prevent a crash when when GUIs call setCdTrack on a not-yet-ready
MediaPlayer.
When cmake fails to detect the LibVLC version via pkg-config, it will
now try to look it up through the header.
Support for Intel compilers on Windows was added.
MetaObject compliation will now reliably pick the correct interface API
version to build against preventing features being unavailable or unused.
* Support VLC 2.1.0's upcoming appid API setting more application
information for PulseAudio.
* Reduce performance overhead in audio/video-less setups by not loading
dummy plugins at all and removing unnecessary dynamic loading logic.
* Internal API redesign to ensure important abstract code is executed.
* Partially backed new MediaController subtitle API (explicit font setting
is not working as expected in VLC 2.0)
* Implement equalizer Effect support. This is only going to appear in
VLC 2.2, so the feature remains not present when built against lower
versions.
* When building against VLC 2.1 the new video title API is used to disable
displaying the video title when a video starts to play. This is going to
replace the manually set argument for libvlc_new in the long run.
* Phonon VLC is now the highest rated backend due to its high quality.
This means that whenever an additional backend is installed and the user
did not choose a preferred backend Phonon VLC will be used by default.
Bug Fixes
* Stride calculation for surface painting is done correctly now (affects
VideoWidget inside QProxyWidget)
* Queued tracks are now correctly played when the current track is about
to end.
* DirectSound and CoreAudio are no longer marked as advanced devices. This
makes auto-selection of devices work on Windows and OSX.
* Track selection on AudioCds via the MediaController is now working as
intended.
* Prevent libpa crashes due to empty user-agent information.
* Reduce scope of non-reentrant PulseAudio envrionment setup. Limited due
to missing API backing in libvlc.
* Subtitle selection now uses correct index mapping preventing off-by-one
issues.
to address issues with NetBSD-6(and earlier)'s fontconfig not being
new enough for pango.
While doing that, also bump freetype2 dependency to current pkgsrc
version.
