2018-01-11: Release
xine-lib 1.2.9
Changes include new video single step feature, keyframe index and x32
support. Optimizations in xine engine core functionality, resulting in
ex. faster seeking and smaller CPU usage. Small fixes and optimizations
all around the codebase.
2017-02-21: Release
xine-lib 1.2.8
Lot of changes since 1.2.6. Support for modern codecs, hardware and
software. Small fixes and optimizations all around the codebase.
OpenGL 2.0, Xv and VAAPI fixes. H.265 hardware decoding support (VAAPI).
Hardware overlay support with Raspbery Pi.
Support for recent ffmpeg versions. Deep color support (9/10bit) with
ffmpeg. Multithreaded decoding fixes.
Audio channel mixing and gain control improvements (ffmpeg, faad), AAC
LATM support with faad, DVB AAC compatibility fixes. "Time Domain Audio
Analyzer" Visualization Post Plugin.
Auto recover from temporary DVB signal loss. Improved Matroska
compatibility (TrueHD and PCM sound, HDMV/Text subtitles, compressed
PGS subtitles). Qt fixes, support for low framerate mp4 and H.265 in mp4.
mp3 compatibility fixes.
The actual fix as been done by "pkglint -F */*/buildlink3.mk", and was
reviewed manually.
There are some .include lines that still are indented with zero spaces
although the surrounding .if is indented. This is existing practice.
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.
changes:
This release contains improvements and important bugfixes.
Some issues that have really "bugged" us for quite some
time (like NTSC DVDs audio sync, broken since 1.1.2, and
H.264 crashes) are finally fixed.
Some of the new features include True Audio and WavPack
support.
bugfixes, cleanup etc
pkgsrc notes:
-new True Audio / WavPack support is not enabled yet
-cleanup of bl3.mk: no need to propagate internals
-removed dependency on libflac -- there is support to play flac files
internally
-removed build of plugins for more exotic video outputs (SDL, ImageMagick,
GL, aalib), this might be built in extra pkgs (like esound and arts
already do)
and add a new helper target and script, "show-buildlink3", that outputs
a listing of the buildlink3.mk files included as well as the depth at
which they are included.
For example, "make show-buildlink3" in fonts/Xft2 displays:
zlib
fontconfig
iconv
zlib
freetype2
expat
freetype2
Xrender
renderproto
RECOMMENDED is removed. It becomes ABI_DEPENDS.
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED.foo becomes BUILDLINK_ABI_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.foo becomes BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS does not change.
IGNORE_RECOMMENDED (which defaulted to "no") becomes USE_ABI_DEPENDS
which defaults to "yes".
Added to obsolete.mk checking for IGNORE_RECOMMENDED.
I did not manually go through and fix any aesthetic tab/spacing issues.
I have tested the above patch on DragonFly building and packaging
subversion and pkglint and their many dependencies.
I have also tested USE_ABI_DEPENDS=no on my NetBSD workstation (where I
have used IGNORE_RECOMMENDED for a long time). I have been an active user
of IGNORE_RECOMMENDED since it was available.
As suggested, I removed the documentation sentences suggesting bumping for
"security" issues.
As discussed on tech-pkg.
I will commit to revbump, pkglint, pkg_install, createbuildlink separately.
Note that if you use wip, it will fail! I will commit to pkgsrc-wip
later (within day).
aalib-x11 and aview-x11.
SDL dependencies change, so bump PKGREVISION (and BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED)
for affected packages.
Addresses PR 32046 by Leonard Schmidt.
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
* fix the deadlock with non-seekable input plugins
* guess codeset for OSD if nl_langinfo(CODESET) is missing or not working
* new option - list of domains, where don't use proxy
* fix possible crashes in front-ends that create and delete streams
* send a message to the front-end when the audio device is busy
* revert changes to the DVD plugin that made it impossible to play mounted
DVDs
* use xine network functions in CDDB lookups, fix connection timeout
* preparing for future MinGW port
* improved network buffer management policy.
* asf/mmst/mmsh proper support for "media changing" command.
* improve playback with separate subtitles, fix the seeking and a deadlock
* DVD still menus fixed that were broken in rc3b
[Note: The way the previous was "fixed" is a kluge.]
* deadlocks with network buffer control fixed
* DXR3's letterboxed overlay mode works with pan&scan material
* DXR3: timestamp handling for NAV packets fixes the menu on the first
DVD of "24" season 1
* fixed audio sync method "resampling"
by moving the inclusion of buildlink3.mk files outside of the protected
region. This bug would be seen by users that have set PREFER_PKGSRC
or PREFER_NATIVE to non-default values.
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES should be ordered so that for any package in the
list, that package doesn't depend on any packages to the left of it
in the list. This ordering property is used to check for builtin
packages in the correct order. The problem was that including a
buildlink3.mk file for <pkg> correctly ensured that <pkg> was removed
from BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and appended to the end. However, since the
inclusion of any other buildlink3.mk files within that buildlink3.mk
was in a region that was protected against multiple inclusion, those
dependencies weren't also moved to the end of BUILDLINK_PACKAGES.
- Fixed some bugs which caused xine to segfault under certain conditions,
and a long-standing issue that would make xine hang with the NPTL
implementation in Linux kernel 2.6.
- Stabilized core engine and much improved subtitles.
- Built-in VCD navigation, XvMC support and better handling of funny filenames.
- A security hole regarding the "#save" MRL option has been closed.
- Added a feature: append "#save:filename" to an MRL to save the stream during
playback.
- Lots of bugfixes.
