0.98.10 - [stable branch] - Sun Feb 22 2009, joern
Features:
- transcode 1.1 compatibility improved, warning about
experimental dvd::rip support removed; there are still issues
with some filters in the filter preview dialog; your mileage
may vary.
- Workaround for transcode h264 two-pass problem, so dvd::rip
now supports h264 two-pass encoding.
- Applied patch from Jussi Judin <jjudin+dvdrip AT iki.fi> to
detect GraphicMagicks as an ImageMagick replacement.
- No files will be placed in /tmp anymore, instead all temporary
files will go to PROJECT_DIR/tmp. Thanks for the hint to
Michael Renner <michael.renner AT gmx.de>.
- dvdrip-master doesn't throw warnings on unneeded missing
binaries anymore, if installed alone without the full
(anyway on the master unneeded) packages. Suggested by
Nicolas Chauvet <kwizart AT gmail.com>.
- Added .ogv extension for OGG files as another option.
Suggested by Nicolas Chauvet.
Bugfixes:
- Fixed cluster mode audio processing with transcode 1.1.x.
Thanks for the report to Samuele Giovanni Tonon <samu AT
linuxasylum.net>.
- Fixed race condition which could result in a missing audio
merge in cluster mode when title has one track. Based on a
patch from Matt Lawrence <m3lawren AT uwaterloo.ca>.
- Fixed wrong progress information (not taking chunks into
account) in cluster mode.
- Added a patch from Nicolas Chauvet to fix a problem with
Fedora's Perl (setlocale).

* Use Ctrl+S instead of Shift+S for the screenshot capture
* Parse session management options on the command-line
* Reset the seekbar when a file is closed

* Make sure all files are played when playing in shuffled mode,

* Fix Rewind() and Stop() functions in the QuickTime compat plugin
* Don't remove renamed files from the playlist
Subtitles download plugin:
* Fix the OpenSubtitles plugin not loading
* Sort languages names in alphabetical order
pkgsrc change: remove the hard dependency on gst-plugins0.10-resindvd,
add a MESSAGE giving hints which plugins might be useful
changes:
- Fix playback of radio streams when the URL has a trailing slash
- Fix detection of ISOs as VCDs or DVDs
- Fix parsing of some podcasts with huge amounts of CDATA in the XML
changes:
Migrate twolame element from -bad
mp3parse improvements
Support scaling in the synaesthsia visualisation
Improve realmedia streaming, supporting RDT and pnm://
Improved ASF demuxing, including streaming-mode seeking
Support for 4:4:4 MPEG-2 video
changes:
Add ASS/SSA subtitle handling element assrender
Leak fixes in the QuickTime decoder wrapper
Better DirectShow output on Windows
Extend QT muxing support to include AMR and H.263
mms seeking support
Extended MXF file format handling
camerabin and photography API for digital camera interfacing
Merge elements from Farsight: liveadder, sirendec, sirenenc, valve,
rtpdtmfsrc, rtpdtmdepay, dtmfsrc, rtpdtmfmux, autoconvert, mimdec, mimenc
typefinder based on xdgmime
This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.
