[xine-devel] Decoder plugin for Kate streams - comments ?

[<ogg...@go...>]

Hi,

I've been adding a decoder for Kate streams to xine, which I'll now port to
the 1.2 branch, but I thought I'd send it here for comments now that it's mostly
there. Note that the patch is not meant to be finished and cleaned up yet. It
also contains a few fixes to other stuff which I'll separate at some point.

Things of note:

- A new event for synced text - this is useful, for instance, to send audio
 players synced lyrics (I have this working in xine-ui and Amarok)

- The SPU decoder, if any, is now updated from the audio decoder (only
 enabled for Kate at the moment, as I expect breakage in plugins which
 do expect to have a video out)

Comments welcome

Thanks
