[xine-user] Re: XINE 0.5 plugin

[Rick H. <ri...@ku...>]

Ok, I've commited this to cvs.  There's still a ways to go before it's
up to the functionality of the 0.4.x patches:

ac3 output support (oss ioctls in dxr3 audio driver)
css input plugin (or maybe I don't know where it is yet)
automatic ratio detection (input plugin)
subtitle palette setting (input plugin)
BCS controls
remove xine display window if not in use

But on the plus side we should be able to play any format xine supports
(just not through dxr3) and sync with alternate audio devices.

I think the slogan of the fansubbers puts
