New CVS Build (1-15-05)

A new CVS build has been released. Its mainly bug fixes rather than new exciting features. Go grab it at the usual places.

ADDED

• [ 1097753 ] Updated XBMC masterlock/share lock code (Thanks to slacker)
• Third rendering method using overlays. Added purely to help find the reason behind the quality improvements gained from the previous overlay method. This new method is identical to the previous overlays method, except it uses mplayers builtin YV12->YUY2 fast convertor. Further info will be available later today in this thread. NB: This output looks identical to my eyes as the output from the pixel shader.
• Second rendering method using overlays. Renderers can be switched from the GUI (Video Settings->Filters).
• Known Issues:
  • 1080i may not be 100% in terms of Aspect ratio - it hasn't been tested
  • Renderers cannot be switched on the fly - change will take effect at next movie play.
  • Overlays method is much slower than the pixel shader method - reason is mostly to do with the software YV12->YUY2 conversion done by mplayer.

CHANGED:

• extended asx parsing to support entryref tags and different tag-casing

• minor GUIThumbnailPanel performance tweaks
• video/music info, smoother update of icons after getting information
• minor GUIListControl performance tweaks
• minor guiImage & xprfont performance tweaks
• Removed TITLE mapping to playlist view in My Music and My Videos - it's on the context menu anyway.
• cdrip encoders moved into dll's, this should result in a smaller executable and a bit faster cd ripping (don't forget to copy the new system folder!)
• New pixel shader output does YV12->RGB in one pass (using Butcher's old code).
• modal dialogs are completely rendered by the window manager now
• my music, background scanner can be canceled during its first operations

UPDATED

• sqlitedataset to 0.60 (now in namespace dbiplus)

REMOVED

• guide mapping from MCE remote in keymap.xml - was an unnecessary double up.
