File Release Notes and Changelog

Release Name: 0.99.4

Notes:
Hi all,

The latest version of xine-ui, 0.99.4, is now available for download.

New xine-ui contains several important fixes for deadlocks, segfaults
and memory leaks, therefore upgrade is recommended.

Users should also appreciate the new features: the often requested
support for audio post plugins (like the 5.1 upmix) is finally available; 
and a new experimental OSD menu system based on oxine (use
shift-O to activate).

Lots of people have contributed to make this release and i'd like to thank 
them all. In particular: Hans-Dieter Kosch, Reinhard Nissl, Marcelo
Jimenez and Jakub Labath.

As usual, you can download from
