[Libmpeg2-announce] [ANN] libmpeg2 0.5.0

[Christophe M. <ma...@vi...>]

Hi folks,

We are glad to announce a new version of libmpeg2 and mpeg2dec. Sam 
and I would like to thank all contributors who have sent us patches 
with determination and patience, and who have truly made this release 
possible.

 From the NEWS file :

New optimizations have been provided for SSE2 and ARM instruction sets,
while a lot of warnings triggered by recent compiler changes have been
fixed.

A new function has been added to guess the aspect ratio of streams where
it is not properly coded. Also it is now possible to retrieve the value
of the MPEG-2 repeat_first_field flag, and to be notified when the
sequence header of a stream changes (eg. aspect ratio on-the-fly changes).

Enjoy!
