Changes between 1.1.1 and 1.1.2:
--------------------------------
* Various bugfixes for ATSC PSI tables
* dvbpsi_packet_push() bugfix
* Various bugfixes for dvbinfo
* Ignore invalid program pids (pid=0) inside PAT table (closes vlc ticket #9695)
* 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.
* Backing for the new MediaController subtitle API.
Bug Fixes
* Resolved non-reentrant PulseAudio envrionment setup.
* Disc playback (AudioCD/DVD/...) is now working correctly with more than
one physical device.
* Prevent reading from deleted StreamReaders.
* Removed performance penalty caused by debug code even when debug was
disabled.
* Installed icons now have the correct pixel size.
* VolumeFaderEffect can now internally abort fades when necessary.
* Removed various minor memory leaks.
* The logic behind the aboutToFinish signal has been revised. The signal
will now only produce gapless transitions if GStreamer issued a callback
more than 500 msec before the end of the current source. This prevents
dead locks with short sources (e.g. notifications) but also prevents the
queue mechanic from working when using short sources or sources of which
the totalTime can not be identified (e.g. streams). It is advised that
all applications make sure they handle the finished signal in addition
to aboutToFinish to ensure that playback does not stop without user
instruction.
* MediaSource(QString) is now deprecated, MediaSource(QUrl) should be
used instead.
* New build option PHONON_ASSERT_STATES to debug incoherent or incorrect
state changes from the backend.
* Documentation cleanup.
* Normalized internal QObject connections.
* Experimental support for building libphonon using QMake; limited control
over feature set and installation path.
* By default both official Phonon backends try to find a matching subtitle
file for videos.
* Phonon's CMake build now uses CMake's own GNUInstallDirs which on most
systems should correctly figure out where to put library files (in
particular with regards to multi-architecture support on Linux). Should
you wish to manually set the library installation path, please use
CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR rather than LIB_INSTALL_DIR from now on.
API Additions
* Additional subtitle API (only partially backed by Phonon VLC - see
FeatureMatrix)
* BluRay support in libphonon (only backed by Phonon VLC)
Backend Exclusive API Additions
* New AudioOutputInterface47 allowing backends to get the Phonon
Pulseaudio stream mapping ID which can be used together with
PulseSupport::streamProperties to prevent [#321288]. Requires
PHONON_BACKEND_VERSION_4_7 to be defined as with all new interface
versions.
Bug Fixes
* AudioOutput::setVolume can now be called before entering Phonon::Playing
state regardless of whether PulseAudio is in use or not.
* Consecutive streams no longer override each other's PulseAudio stream
mapping.
