   Hi, I found some time to review your patch and rewrite the parts that
didn't please me for various reasons. I did not use the dvdcss_cache_dir
variable because it breaks the API compatibility, it's not thread-safe,
and I don't think a new major number is justified yet. Client applications
can use setenv or putenv if they really need to change this value. A way
to address these issues will be provided in future versions.

   Should the entire MPlayer team be credited for the code, or does the
copyright on the code belong to a specific individual?
