Hello everybody, Here is the second test release in preparation for 0.8.0 (aka Janus). You will find the new tarball here: http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/testing/vlc-0.8.0-test2/ Binaries for Win32 and MacOSX have also already been uploaded. As usual, this release contains an amazing amount of new features as well as bug fixes. To name just a few: * Re-write of the input layer. (better, faster, more extensible - eg. allows multi-input support). * Re-write of the transcoding layer. (everything VLC plays can now be transcoded). * New plugins cache system to speed up launch time. * Improvements to the subtitles/OSD subsystem. * Vastly improved DVD support. * DirectX Media Object decoder/encoder (Win32 only - supports WMV3). * Cross-platform OpenGL video output. * New screen capture input plugin (to stream your desktop). * Windows Media Server RTSP support. * Multipart JPEG demuxing/muxing. (for video streaming to a Mozilla Web Browser) * DVB subtitles decoding/encoding. * Audio equalizer. * etc... Changes since 0.8.0-test1 include: * More gradual resampling which should improve the pitch changing effect.(Continue reading)
