[vlc-devel] [PATCH 0/9] make libvlc_media_parse_async() interruptible

[Thomas Guillem]

This set of patch aims to cancel a preparser request when a libvlc_media is
released.

I also improved the preparser: it won't spawn an input thread on top of the
preparser thread.

I also did a few changes in input_thread_t core API, I heavily changed the
behavior of input_Read(). This function can now be interrupted and it can be
used to preparse.

Thomas Guillem (9):
  input: change input_Read() behavior
  input: return an error if input_Read() was interrupted
  preparser: read item directly from the current thread
  preparser: use unsigned for an array count
  preparser: don't fetch art if preparse fails
  preparser: add playlist_preparser_Cancel
  core: rename libvlc_MetaRequest to libvlc_MetadataRequest
  core: add libvlc_MetadataCancel
  libvlc: media: cancel preparsing when releasing a media
