(CVE-2007-1246) [bug #1676925] + Thanks to Kees Cook for reporting. + * Improved PulseAudio plugin, now only one connection per instance is opened + and the mainloop is threaded to reduce latency during playback. + * Added XCB-based output plugins (Xv and XShm), to use in software using + XCB to talk with the server rather than libX11 (like new Kaffeine). + The plugins are contributed by Christoph Pfister with the help of + Vincent Torri, Jamey Sharp and Christophe Thommeret. + * Fix race condition in alsa audio out driver. + * Fixed a crash in the eq2 plugin. [Bug 1644312] + * Fixed content type detection for AAC (seekable) streams with ID3v2 + tags prefixed clobbering the preview buffer, by skipping over the tag. + * Parse ID3v2 tags on AAC and FLAC files, as well as mp3 files. + * Priority of the AAC encoder is now lower than anything else, so + it's not going to crash xine down if you try to run an mp3 stream + on FAAD2. + * Relicense the xine-lib XML parser under the GNU LGPL, for use in other + projects. + * Improvement in portability to Solaris and NetBSD, thanks to Albert Lee and + Sergey Svishchev respectively. + * Spanish translation updated by Carlos E. Robinson M. + * Don't leave libstk support to be detected automagically; also made it + disabled by default as upstream is dead and a different libstk is found + on Debian. + * Improvement in portability to FreeBSD, merged some patches (with changes) + from the ports. + * Cleaned up Real binary codecs support, adding support for FreeBSD (still + to be completely cleaned up though), and to 64-bit platforms. Also add + two new configure option, one to enable or disable building of Real binary + support altogether and one to choose the path where to look for the codecs + by default (it can, and probably should) be different from the Win32 + codecs path. + * Avoid a possible floating-point exception when starting stream playback. + * Now xine can play correctly media on HTTP servers reporting status codes + but no status message. + * Wave files with 24-bit integer PCM streams now should play correctly + (downplayed to 16-bit). + * Added centre-cutout (4:3 in 16:9) to the expand plugin. + Patch by Reinhard Nissl. + * Fix support of block devices for AC3 and DTS demuxers. Thanks to Matthias + Kretz for the original patch. + * Portability fixes for Mac OS X, in particular Mac OS X on the new Intel + Macs. Thanks to Martin Aumueller, Emanuele Giaquinta and Matt Messier. + * Fix amp muting when level is still at 100. Patch by Reinhard Nissl. + * Create at least a 1×1 shared image when the first frame is skipped (and + thus reported as 0×0), to avoid disabling shared memory for all others. + Patch by Reinhard Nissl. + * Send an event when the amp level is modified. Patch by Reinhard Nissl. + * Add support for H.264 video stream in PES packets. Patch by Reinhard Nissl. + * Support multiple audio PID in MPEG TS. Patch by Julian Scheel. + +xine-lib (1.1.4) + * Mark string-type configuration items according to whether they're plain + strings or names of files, device nodes or directories. This information + is available to front ends (via .num_value) so that they can present + file/dir-open dialogue boxes if they so choose. + Subtitle font selection is split up due to this. + * Applied the patch to fix text relocation, provided by PaX Team for Gentoo + and previously applied by other distributions as well. Fixes the non-PIC + code being generated. Note: patch reverted for tomsmocomp (segfault). + * Fix race condition in audio_out by using a recursive mutex; patch by + Reinhard Nissl. [bug #1551911] + * Allow building with Sun CC by fixing the lprintf variadic macro; patch by + Taso N. Devetzis. [bug #1614406] + * Fix disposing of image buffers in video_out_xv when SHM get disabled by + exhaustion of memory; patch by Matthias Drochner. [bug #1620339] + * Fix invalid memory access in Real Media ASM parser; reported by Roland + Kay. [bug #1603503] + * Fix program termination due to invalid Real Media SDP; reported by Roland + Kay. [bug #1602663] + * Fix invalid memory access in Real Media SDP with tailored stream; reported + by Roland Kay. [bug #1602631] + * Don't check for libpostproc version and assume that if libavcodec is found + correctly, libpostproc is of the same version, too. Reported by Ville + Skyttä. [bug #1617344] + * Fix Shorten demuxer: the whole "ajkg" signature has to be found, not only + one character of it. [bug #1601134] + * Implement at least a partial content-based detection of ModPlug-decoded + module files, using the magic numbers from GNU file. This allows to open + module files based on content rather than on their extension only. + [bug #1445746] + * Make the libFLAC-based decoder and demuxer for FLAC files work with recent + FLAC release 1.1.3. + * Replace --enable-flac configure option with --with-libflac, as the FLAC + support is always built-in through the audio demuxer plugin and the FFmpeg + decoder plugin, the option only controls the extra FLAC plugin that uses + libFLAC both for demuxing and decoding. + * Implement a True Audio files demuxer. [bug #1586381] + * Allow decoding of MusePack SV 7.x files (7.1 files at least play fine). + * Fix demuxing of uncompressed VobSub subtitles in Matroska files + * ffmpeg update to 51.29.0 + * Workaround ffmpeg buggy codecs that don't release their DR1 frames. + [bugs #1599975, #1601299, #1319154] + * Fix several segfaults and freezing problem with H264 streams that use a lot + of reference frames (eg. 15) [bugs #1603305, #1576588, #1267713] + * Fix mpeg4 artifacts introduced in cvs (not present in 1.1.3) [#1625911] + * Initial support to enable/disable ffmpeg codecs. Codecs may be disabled in + groups by --disable-ffmpeg-uncommon-codecs/--disable-ffmpeg-popular-codecs + Think of "uncommon" codecs what people would never want to play with their + PDAs (they will save memory by removing them). + Note: currently both uncommon/popular codecs are _build_ but disabled. + that is, build system still need some improvements to really save memory. + * Fix possible division by zero when pausing (video_out.c). + * Allow disabling build of musepack decoder through a ./configure parameter + (--disable-musepack). + * Allow using external libmpcdec for MusePack decoding rather than the + internal copy of an old libmusepack, through a ./configure parameter + (--with-external-libmpcdec). + * Add support for WavPack files, with both a demuxer and a decoder using + WavPack library. As an alternative, FFmpeg's audio decoder can be used + to decode WavPack files. + * Don't crash when caching a file opened through Samba plugin, thanks to + Timothy Redaelli from Gentoo. + * Fix audio/video sync problem with NTSC DVDs (introduced in 1.1.2). + [bugs #1544349 and #1589644] + + xine-lib (1.1.3) * Security fixes: - Heap overflow in libmms (related to CVE-2006-2200) @@ -1200,7 +1319,7 @@ xine (0.5.0) unstable; urgency=low * artsd support * dxr3/h+ support now finally in the official tree * 4/5/5.1 audio channel output (OSS/ ALSA?) - * a new default skin by Jérôme Villette + * a new default skin by Jérôme Villette -- Guenter Bartsch <guenter@users.sourceforge.net> Sun, 22 Jul 2001 13:10:52 +0200 |
