thanks, i heard about it... ;)

still i have seem some suggestions on the web that include using both
progressive and repeat_field flags. even if it's not completely reliable
it might be useful having this information exported (even if only as a
"hint").

i've just recently increased vo API version number and we haven't made
any release since that, so we should be fine.

you are right about decoders, should we increase it as well? do you know
any external decoder project for xine?
