1050 exit with message "recompile mplayer with #undef HAVE_AUDIO_SELECT"...
1051 - syncfb driver added to the source tree, under drivers/
1052 (it's very similar to mga_vid, but has syncronization to screen and
1053 de-interlace features)
1054 - draw_slice in syncfb finished for G400 cards (plays mpeg 1/2, opendivx)
1055 (de-interlacing has been disabled, because it's buggy now)

1092 - libvo: added uninit() function to drivers
1093 - libvo: fork()'ed X11 eventhandler for x11 and xmga drivers [me & Pontscho]
1094 (gl and xv version is coming soon!)
1095 - libvo: sdl driver now closes SDL at QUIT...
1096 - small english fixes (docs & messages) [Balazs Tibor]

1099 fixes
1100 - asf "missing video stream" fixed (stream id & 0x7F) [Christoph H. Lampert]
1101 - added GL-test directory, it contains source and compiler script of a
1102 very simple open-gl texture updating (glTexSubImage) test program.
1103 if it runs well, then mplayer -o gl should work too.
1104 it works on G400+Utah-GLX, but segfaults in the G400 driver of X 4.0.2/DRI.
1105 try it with different cards/drivers, and please report me the results.
1106 - benchmarking in gltest.c: calculate fps and process times
1107 - .asf seeking v0.01-pre0.1 :)
1109 mplayer v0.11-pre16: Feb 4 2001
1110 ACM fixed
1111 - Win32/ACM audio codec fixed (most important for asf with divx audio):
1112 There was an output buffer size problem with the Win32/ACM audio codec
1113 at low bitrates (usually used for .asf files with divx audio)
1114 Input and output buffer sizes are now queryed, problem solved :)
1115 - SDL support compiling hint by Michael Durller added to the FAQ
1116 - opendivx support in .asf files [Gérard Lantau]
1117 - ./configure & Makefiles patch by Aaron Hope applied.
1118 (adds --with-win32libdir and fixes --with-x11libdir)

1128 small fixes, asf sync v0.1 :)
1129 - version number incremented :)))
1130 - libvo / Xv driver swapped Red-Blue fixed
1131 - asf timestamps implemented - now asf A-V should be in sync if you
1132 specify the correct fps at commandline (-fps), +-1 fps allowed...
1133 [i haven't yet found method to get fps out from asf headers :(((]
1134 - some error and consistency checking into demux_asf
1135 if you see many warning! messages playing an .asf file, then contact
1136 me and upload the file (first 1MB is enough if it represents the problem)
1137 Don't forget: there is no public doc about the .asf file format, so
1138 everything we know is suspected and can be wrong... without your help
1139 we never will have working .asf player...
1140 - asf fragment offset checks disabled for grouping...
1142 mplayer v0.11-pre13: Jan 31 2001
1143 libvo changes, mpeg bitrate, vcd fix, asf grouping
1144 - libvo: draw_slice() interface changed, now it has src stride[3] and
1145 destination rect dimension (w,h,x,y)
1146 It's able to blit whole frames, not only 16-pixel slices...
1147 - libmpeg2 and opendivx codec changed to use new draw_slice()
1148 -> opendivx extra 64-pixel width band at right disappeared!
1149 - mpeg bitrate fix: if picture->bitrate==0x3FFFF (means "unspecified" ?)
1150 then using standard VCD bitrate (75*2324 bytes/sec)
1151 -> fixed seeking for those mpegs with "16MBit/s" bitrate...
1152 - drivers/sis_vid: video4linux interface disabled
1153 - broken VCD playing fixed: stream_reset shouldn't seek to 0x0...
1154 [bugreport: Kang Sun]
1155 - asf_parser: grouping implemented! [test file provided by Gabucino :))]
1157 mplayer v0.11-pre12: Jan 30 2001

1162 if fails (useful for people with old gcc and new cpu :))
1163 - removed -fomit-frame-pointer from OPTFLAGS at config.mak
1164 - version number incremented [Gabucino]
1165 - odivx encoder fix: allow long (longer than xxxx.avi) destination filenames

1167 - avi writer - overwrite disabled (exits with error message if destination
1168 file already exists...) [Gabucino]
1169 - use -divxq to set encoding bitrate (in bits (no kbits!) default: 780000)
1170 - no audio decoding if -encode option is used
1171 - audio streaming disabled if -nosound specified (setting audio_id to -2)
1172 - fast Mpeg-ES detection (doesn't read the whole Mpeg-PS file)
1173 - compile-time option to disable using soundcard driver's select()
1174 (requires for some people with buggy/pre-alpha/etc sound driver...)
1176 mplayer v0.11-pre11: Jan 29 2001
1177 streaming fixes, asf support pre, indeo5 fix
1178 - asf/asfinfo.c improved: now it dumps streams to files - need testing!
1179 (it's ready to be converted to asf demuxer and intergated into MPlayer)
1180 - stream.c / stream_reset() fix: now it really seek back to 0 position!
1181 - .asf file format detection added (no .asf reading yet!!!)
1182 - .asf demultiplexer added, changes in demuxer.c to handle fragmented packets
1183 > it plays .asf video well, but still has problems with divx/wma audio. :(((
1184 - indeo 5 playing fixed (removed ICDECOMPRESS_UPDATE from flags)
1185 - xmga resizing problems with some window managers, so default order is
1186 changed xmga,xma... to mga,xmga,...
1187 - found gcc bug: compiling MPlayer with flags
1188 OPTFLAGS=-O -g -march=i686 -mcpu=i686 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -ffast-math
1189 cause image sizes negating -> mga_vid kernel driver Oops... :(((
1190 - runaway.bride.sample.avi seeking segfault discovered: AC3 resync fails :(
1191 - improved signal handling: module name is now printed. audio_resync added.
1192 - RGB opendivx encoding implemented, now AVI->opendivx is possible.
1194 mplayer v0.11-pre10: Jan 22 2001
1195 OpenDivX encoding, streaming fixes, avi seek fixes
1196 - new libvo driver: odivx (OpenDivX File Writer)
1197 - AVI file writting support, new option: -encode filename
1198 to encode an mpeg/vob/vcd to opendivx:
1199 mplayer file1.mpg -encode file2.avi -o odivx -nosound
1200 (sound encoding/copy is not yet supported)
1201 - libvo: default driver priority changed to: xmga,mga,syncfb,3dfx,xv,x11,gl
1202 - avi writer: index support
1203 - small fixes in avi writer to be compliant (adjusted chunk/list lengths)
1204 - demuxer.c: stream buffering fixes:
1205 - missing {} in mplayer.c occuring audio reads when has_audio=0
1206 - reordered packet reader and pack count checks -> no more unwanted EOF
1207 - added 4MB buffer memory usage limit to demuxed streams

1212 - FAQ added
1214 ** Now we are ready with planned features & urgent fixes, **
1215 ** it's time to final testing and then the 0.11 release!! **
1217 mplayer v0.11-pre9: Jan 18 2001
1218 OpenDivX fixes,speedup
1219 - solved OpenDivX width problem (stride=width+(Quality?0:64))
1220 now -divxq 0 works, and 0 is the default
1221 - libvo call moved out from my_convert_yuv() so it can be measured (cpu %)
1222 - IDCT code ported from libmpeg2 -> much faster OpenDivX decoding
1224 mplayer v0.11-pre8: Jan 18 2001
1225 SDL fixes, OpenDivX support
1226 - added -I/usr/X11R6/include to libvo CFLAGS
1227 - (removed later: applied libvo SDL driver fixes by Jeffrey Boser)
1228 - OpenDivX support, initial hack, maybe not work for you...
1229 (I need testfiles, I have just only one)
1230 use -divxq option to adjust quality (1..29 works), 1=default
1232 mplayer v0.11-pre7: Jan 14 2001
1233 SDL support
1234 - ported SDL driver from mpeg2dec/libvo (currect CVS)
1235 (it's slower than internal X11 driver, but supports software scaling!)
1236 - fixed SDL driver to support -fs and pass keyboard events
1237 - SDL driver changed to support YV12 and YUY2 formats instead of IYUV
1238 (now works with DivX files too)
1239 - 'q' (Quit) disabled in SDL fullscreen mode (because it's impossible
1240 to restore screen before exiting so it gets unusable state now)
1242 mplayer v0.11-pre6: Jan 14 2001
1243 audio fix
1244 - fixed video_out_xv.c compiling problems [bugreport: Kalle Mellerup]
1245 - modified audio playing: always keep buffer (both internal and card's)
1246 filled using select() -> -alsa audio delays should be fixed.
1247 - updated DOCS/AUTHORS and DOCS/README
1249 mplayer v0.11-pre5: Jan 12 2001
1250 xmmp audio support, applied Pontscho's libvo patch
1251 - xmmp audio driver support by Arthur Kleer
1252 - new video_out driver by Pontscho: xmga (Matrox G200/G400 only!)
1253 It does same under X 3.3.x what Xv extension does under X 4.0.x!
1254 (you will have a moveable/resizeable window but see an YUV video
1255 overlay in it using color keying)
1256 - added keyboard event support in X11 windows [Pontscho]
1257 (using mplayer_[put|get]_key() in codecctrl.c)
1259 mplayer v0.11-pre4: Jan 6 2001
1260 x11 driver fixes, 15/16bpp support
1261 - version in version.h fixed :))) [Pontscho]
1262 - inttypes.h moved to DOCS/ (copy back to the root if you need it)
1263 - depth calculation in vo_init() changed (Pontscho's version couldn't
1264 make difference between 15 and 16bpp)
1265 - x11 driver now uses vo_init() instead of get_depth()
1266 - yuv2mmx: 15bpp not really supported -> removed from list, now
1267 conversion is done (well) by the C code -> MPEG play in 15bpp works!
1268 - avi playing support added in 15bpp (memcpy)
1269 - avi playing support added in 16bpp (C 15->16 converter by me)
1270 - avi playing support added in 16bpp (MMX 15->16 converter by Strepto)
1271 - libvo/x11: yuv2rgb used MMX code on non-MMX CPUs too!!! fixed...
1272 - all x11 modes tested (and mpeg/24bpp byteorder fixed):
1273 MPEG: AVI/VfW:
1274 15bpp C convert memcpy
1275 16bpp MMX/C convert MMX/C convert
1276 24bpp C convert memcpy
1277 32bpp MMX/C convert memcpy / C conv.
1278 => now all the movie types are viewable using the -o x11 driver!
1280 mplayer v0.11-pre3: Jan 5 2001
1281 mpeg fixes, fullscreen support
1282 - vertical.mpg serious libvo (x11,gl) segfaults fixed:
1283 yuv2rgb_mmx requires one more lines that vertical image size...
1284 fixed (allocating memory for width*(height+1)). [bugreport: Gabucino]
1285 - Pontscho's fullscreen patch applied!
1286 Using option -fs will maximize window size (for all resizeable drivers
1287 including mga!) and disable window decorations (x11,Xv,gl only)
1288 - simple inttypes.h included for libc5 (and glibc2.0 too?) users
1289 - homepage updates (links changed ftp->http)
1291 mplayer v0.11-pre2: Jan 4 2001
1292 better user messages, mp3 codec selection, demuxer changes
1293 - w32codec.zip restored at the FTP site (somehow it damaged...)
1294 - added version.h, and used its content everywhere
1295 - 'premature end-of-file' problem fixed: freeing audio buffers and
1296 setting d_audio->id=-2 if has_audio==0 [bugreport by Dmitri Pogosyan]
1297 - some more messages added if verbose>=1
1298 - demuxer.c: error message printed if A or V chunk buffer is full
1299 'mplayer test.avi -aid -2' still not works without option '-nosound'
1300 - adding new config.h option to set default MP3 audio codec (mpg123/l3codeca)
1301 ./configure selects mp3lib only if you have 3Dnow [idea: Gabucino]
1302 - automatic fallback to mp3lib/mpg123 if l3codeca.acm can't be loaded/inited
1304 mplayer v0.11-pre1:
1305 AVI sync fixes
1306 - AVI audio seeking improvements: now using nBlockAlign value to seek
1307 inside the chunk, so divx audio works without big delays!!!
1308 - AVI PTS calculation modified: counting video PTS when skip_video_frames>0
1309 so new audio PTS values will be correct. Solved many sync probs!
1310 - A-V sync with AVI files fixed!
1311 Now only the Desperado-trailer has 1.0 sec delay after seeking.
1312 - fixed AVI sync in -bps mode too! :) (perfect except that Desperado avi)
1314 mplayer v0.10: Jan 1 2001 "The new year" release!
1315 - testing
1316 - docs changed
1317 - it's time to release and remove the old buggy 0.09 version...
1318 - release!!!
1320 mplayer v0.10-pre8: libvo/x11 changes
1321 - libvo: x11/xv driver separated to x11 and xv drivers
1322 - libvo: DUMMY_VO_FUNC removed from driver sources
1323 - libvo: default driver order changed, because some users with software-only
1324 opengl though that this 'slow' player can only play at 1-3fps :)
1326 mplayer v0.10-pre7: Dec 31 2000
1327 libmpeg2 interface changes, display size/area changes, AVI fixes
1328 - libmpeg2/decode.c modified:
1329 - removed unused OMS and mpeg2dec stuff
1330 - decode_data rewritten, now works like parse_es.c
1331 => doesn't copy any data -> faster and less memory usage
1332 - mplayer.c sends code 0x1FF after every frame, so libmpeg2 knows
1333 when has to display it
1334 - mplayer.c: in_frame flag fixes, didn't work well with mpeg2 streams
1335 (because there is a 0x1B2 chunk between 0x100 and 0x101)
1336 - 'picture' changed from static to shmem-allocated
1337 -> better picture after codec restart (tested with JapAd.mpg)
1338 -> keep information of the header changes (after init)
1339 - mpeg image size changed, now only the real part of frame is displayed
1340 (no more green strip at the bottom)
1341 - picture struct: new fields: display_picture_width/height
1342 - image buffer allocation (shmem) is done by decode.c instead of libvo
1343 - new option: -xy <value> (resize both x/y direction)
1344 if value<=8 -> x_scale = y_scale = value
1345 else -> x_size=value y_size=aspectratio*x_size
1346 - mplayer.c: video output moved out from avi/mpg init sections and
1347 now it's common code (added movie_size_x/y variables and out_fmt global)
1348 - new keys:
1349 ESC => quit
1350 + and - => adjust audio delay +- 0.1 second
1351 k => kill/restart the mpeg codec process (for testing)
1352 - codec control interface changed: wait for syncword after (re)start
1353 to avoid receiving old frames => it's stable again!
1354 - removed (now unused) allocate/free image buffer code from libvo
1355 - mplayer: new internal variable for video format: has_video
1356 0 = none (unused yet)
1357 1 = mpeg 1/2 video
1358 2 = win32/VfW video codec
1359 - config.h has defaults for bps-based AVI sync and ALSA timer code options:
1360 #undef AVI_SYNC_BPS => now it's disabled by default!!! use -bps to enable
1361 #define ALSA_TIMER => now it's enabled by default!!! use -noalsa to dis.
1362 - help updated
1363 - prints max compressed framesize at exit (both avi & mpeg)
1364 - AVI audio seeking fixed: some ACM codecs (divx audio and ms-adpcm)
1365 can't seek inside a chunk, they are only able to play whole chunks.
1366 Current audio seeking has changed to seek inside the chunk only if the
1367 codec supports it (only internal codecs and ACM/mp3 allows it).
1368 - AVI: audio delay correction if can't seek inside the chunk
1370 mplayer v0.10-pre6: Dec 24 2000 "Xmas edition"
1371 mpeg signal & EOF fixes
1372 - ./configure: k6_mtrr (2.4.test11+) added [Pontscho]
1373 - `term destroys if mplayer (mpg) called from mc.ext` bug fixed:
1374 added sighandler to the 3rd process (mpeg codec) to avoid sig. recursion
1375 - better output at exit (handled now by exit_player())
1376 - mpeg EOF problem (codec restart) fixed: added EOF detection to parse_es.c
1377 - internal flag 'current_module' added to get more info at segfaults
1378 (contains module number where the segfault occured)
1379 - audio detection changed: using afm=4 (Win32/ACM) for MP3 audio (AVI files)
1380 (you MUST have l3codeca.acm at /usr/lib/win32, or you have to use '-afm 1')
1382 mplayer v0.10-pre5: Dec 22 2000
1383 flipping fixed
1384 - AVI image flipping reworked:
1385 - new flag: avi_header.flipped, TRUE if upside-down
1386 - image flipping code removed/disabled from libvo modules
1387 - duplicate flip_page() calls removed (overload with x11 and mga)
1388 - aLaw audio codec (AVI id 0x06) added (uses code from xanim source)
1390 mplayer v0.10-pre4: ???
1391 test release, small fixes
1392 - video_out driver <-> codec incompatibility message changed
1393 - fixed the config.format bug in drivers/mga_vid_test, so it works again!
1394 [thanks to David Whysong]
1395 - libmpeg2 upgraded
1397 mplayer v0.10-pre3: Dec 10 2000
1398 test release, verbose mode, new docs
1399 - new option: -v = increment verbose level
1400 (debug printf's changed to verbose level-dependent)
1401 - default level: 0, only some informal output
1402 - init debug: 1, some basic debug infos, avi header, function values
1403 - player debug: 2, print avi indexes, chunk inputs, more debug infos
1404 - parser debug: 3, prints everything related to input parsers
1405 to increment verbose level, use multiple -v options (-v -v -v for level-3)
1406 - bitrate calculation for AVI files
1407 - README rewritten, added Troubleshooting and Bugreports sections
1408 - TVout directory added (only the scripts)
1410 mplayer v0.10-pre2: Dec 8 2000
1411 bugfix test release, bps-sync enabled
1412 - avi: supporting both 0-based and movi-based index types (autodetect)
1413 - avi: tested with VBR audio: plays well with -mc 0 option, seek doesn't
1414 work yet [thanks to Alan Chen for testfile]
1415 - avi: A-V sync to avg. byte/sec implemented (again) and enabled by default
1416 (disable with -nobps if you want)
1417 - ./configire: 3rd name ('kni') of the P3 added. Where is the compatibility?
1418 - useless '\' removed from libac3/Makefile [Otvos Ferenc]
1420 mplayer v0.10-pre1: Dec 5 2000
1421 test release, players merged!!!
1422 - avip and mpegp has been merged to a single binary called 'mplayer'
1423 - file type detection (AVI/MPEG-PS/MPEG-ES/Other)
1424 - no redundant code (common code for common jobs)
1425 - big format-dependent codes moved to functions (separated files)
1426 - better error messages, removed some debug stuff, code cleanups
1427 - old libmpeg2 version removed from source tree
1428 - help texts merged (help_avi+help_mpg -> help_mp)
1429 - new options: -x <x> -y <y> = scale image (if selected driver supports)
1430 if value<=8 then image size will be multiplied by value, otherwise
1431 image size will be scaled to <value> pixels.
1432 For example:
1433 2x ZOOM: mplayer -x 2 -y 2 test.mpg
1434 800x600: mplayer -x 800 -y 600 test.mpg
1435 [default values are still configurable at compile-time, see config.h]
1436 - TV project (not finished) codebase added (see tvision.c, or: make tvision)
1438 mplayer v0.09: Dec 5 2000
1439 Beta release [same as 0.09-pre3]
1440 - version changed in the files
1441 - docs updated
1443 mplayer v0.09-pre3: Dec 3 2000
1444 bugfix test-release, X11 support testing
1445 - fixed the if [ -z $pparam ] bug in ./configure [Christian Birchinger]
1446 - many changes in AVI seek code, resulting near-perfect seeking now!
1447 current method calc absolute audio position, so with VBR audio it
1448 doesn't work yet...
1449 - avip: Xv support (YUY2 image format)
1450 - avip: X11 support (24 & 32 bpp only, BGR format)
1451 I need a very fast 15->16bpp converter for 16bpp support... anyone helps?
1453 mplayer v0.09-pre2:
1454 bugfix test-release
1455 - removed unnecessary code from libmpeg2/header.c
1456 Walken told me that standard mpg/vob streams must NOT use framerate
1457 and bitrate extension... and the ext. id check is done by the caller.
1458 - CRC support to mp3lib's mpeg audio layer-2 decoder
1459 thanks for bugreport & testfile to Samson
1461 mplayer v0.09-pre1: Dec 1 2000
1462 bugfix test-release
1463 - imported new libmpeg2 files (under testing...)
1464 - GL renderer flickering bug fixed (MMX missing emms() between yuv2rgb and
1465 glTexSubImage(), bug triggered by new Utah-GLX code)
1466 [thanks for Christian Birchinger]
1468 mplayer v0.08: Nov 27 2000
1469 Index support, avi seeking, DLL loader fix, compilation fixes
1470 - Added support for chunk index usage (disable with -noidx option)
1471 - Removed code optimization flags from loader/Makefile because
1472 it segfaults if compile optimized code (it does some hacks with
1473 pointers, maybe the reordered code confuses it)
1474 - added new tool called aviparse (read and check avi file structure)
1475 - indexed and raw chunk info comparing, bad chunks dropped
1476 - termcap usage is optional (for those debian users without termcap)
1477 - #if HAVE_* fixed (to #ifdef HAVE_*)
1478 - ./configure supports new /proc/cpuinfo (2.4.0-test11)
1479 - sse is called 'sse' again
1480 - 'flags' field renamed to 'features'
1481 - Xv benchmark results added to DOCS/SPEED
1482 - avi seeking (and other goodies, pause etc) implemented
1483 no PTS resync after seek yet.
1484 - default video_out driver changed from 'mga' to the first available driver
1485 new driver priority: mga_vid, opengl, x11
1487 mplayer v0.07: Nov 21 2000
1488 Easier compile
1489 - Added Pontscho's ./configure script (it's modified a lot)
1490 - Updated makefiles, and tested a lot :)
1491 - Updated DOCS/INSTALL
1493 mplayer v0.06: Nov 20 2000
1494 Better codec selection
1495 - avi audio&video codec selection moved to new codecs.c file,
1496 loader/driver.c and loader/afl.c modified for this
1497 - yuv support fixed, codecs.c setup flags to handle yuv properly
1498 yuv works fine with divx, mpeg4, cvid, and upside-down iv50
1499 - DOCS/INSTALL updated
1500 - DOCS/SPEED updated, DivX benchmarks added
1502 mplayer v0.05: Nov 18 2000
1503 Merged with MPEGplayer 0.90pre6, first public release of AVI player
1504 - code merged with mpegplayer, new Makefile, some small modifications
1505 - docs updated and moved to DOCS
1507 mplayer v0.04: Nov 17 2000
1508 YUV (yuy2) support with divx 3.11 dll, some code cleanup, preview-release
1510 mplayer v0.03: Nov 14 2000
1512 mplayer v0.01: Nov 11 2000
1513 first preview version based on new MPEGplayer's codebase.
1514 it contains the win32 loader from avifile, and can decode divx 3.11 video.
1516 mpg12play v0.9-v0.95pre5: Oct 21-Nov 2, 2000
1517 Mpeg codec was libmpeg2 (mpeg2dec) by Aaron Holtzman & Michel
1518 Lespinasse. It's great, optimized very fast C code with perfect
1519 image quality and 100% MPEG standard conformance.
1521 mpg12play v0.5-v0.87: Sep 28-Oct 20, 2000
1522 Mpeg codec replaced with DVDview by Dirk Farin, it was a great
1523 stuff, but it was slow and was written in C++ (I hate C++!!!)
1525 mpg12play v0.1-v0.3: Sep 22-25, 2000
1526 The first try, hacked together in a half hour! I've used libmpeg3
1527 from www.heroinewarrior.com up to the version 0.3, but there were
1528 image quality and speed problems with it.
