[vlc-devel] VLC 1.0.0-pre2 issues

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

Hello people,

Here are some of the more importants I have seen.

- DVB is broken on Windows (kenS?), noone seems to be able to
  understand/care about the issue. (1.0)
- RTSP fixes for Windows (the workaround works more or less)
- Swscaling quality with newer swscale
- SVQ3 HD in mov stutters (regression, see #2547) (1.0)
- Seeking issues (#2589,#1837) but AVI seeking seems fixed? (1.0)
- H264 decoding has some issues since a long time (#2610 add to the list)
  (0.9 and 1.0)
- CPU consumption can be huge for some codecs (3x,4x more than 0.9)
- MKV real video support is still lacking stuffs (cook, correct RV40, etc...)(new)
- Audio channels seem to be in wrong order in many samples with 5.1 and 7.1
  Flac and E-AC3 are known to be broken (especially in M2TS) (new)
- DVB-H seems to be broken in 0.9 and 1.0
- Mac Windows Ratio is still not fixed (0.9+1.0)
- HTTP files need cleanup...
- Many Qt bugs (I know... I'll work on those) (1.0)
- Locking on exit where Ctrl+C doesn't exit.
- Truncated playback (#2495)

Stuff to check or be tested:
- DVD menus are weirdly working and some people say that 0.8.6 can break
  region-locking while 0.9 cannot?
  And there is always issues with DVD menus and video filters.
- ASS and subtitles files need to be checked on Windows, because the styles
  don't apply at once. (0.9 and 1.0)
- DMO should be fixed, if we want wmap decoding (1.0)


And as usual, more broken samples can be found at
