[vlc-devel] [PATCH] Added libvlc_video_get_spu_delay and, libvlc_video_set_spu_delay.

[John Hendrikx]

I've redone this patch and fixed all the remarks.  I indeed forgot to add the sym file.

I noticed the master is on 1.3.0 now, the comment for the new functions indicate they are since LibVLC 1.2.0 or later -- I donot know which version they will eventually be included in, so I hope that is correct.
