this patch fixes 1) some bugs introduced in the tuner autodetection and in the channel-parsing functions, 3) retries reading when the mplayer/mencoder don't read fast enough (sooner it exited) but especially 4) makes the stream compliant with the new, modular stream api (the one currently in CVS is not and is totally unreachable). [and maybe more, next time please include cvslog in patch! -- A'rpi] patch by Nico <[e-mail]>

MPlayer DVD-kit v2.2 :)
made by Pontscho & A'rpi for the MPlayer project

What the hell is this?
======================
Nothing special, just a collection of sources and patches and fixes:

- dvdread 0.9.3 + static libdvdcss (removed dlopen code)
- libdvdcss 1.2.5
- optimizations enabled, asserts disabled
everything packed together with _static_ linking to maximize performance.

Why?
====
Users keep complaining about the still not fixed assert() bug, the
buggy libdvdcss 1.0 or the slow key-cracking process...
So Pontscho decided to pack these together, fix bugs and make it
available for the MPlayer users.

Hey, I don't like this, this is not legal!
==========================================
It is GPL code, so it should be legal, anyway if you don't want it, just
delete this directory! MPlayer's ./configure will check if this directory
exists, so it is OK to delete it.

How to compile mpdvdkit as a shared library (lib*.so)?
======================================================
After running MPlayer's ./configure, change this line in config.mak:
DVDKIT_SHARED = no
to:
DVDKIT_SHARED = yes
and make; make install; ldconfig
