changeset 7787:05e518badc1b

doc fixes part 1 (more will come when i find the time to read the rest) if anything is not ok, please let me know documentation.html: * OGG -> OGG/OGM (both file formats are supported) * somewhat better wording (no real change of meaning) * update of the current xf86 version from 4.2.0 to 4.2.1 * mga_vid is not old * partial sync of the options with the manpage (someone with deeper knwoledge should check them and finish the sync) * added 2 links about quoting and correct writing of mails to the mailinglists formats.html: * fixing typo interleaved -> non-interleaved (at least i think it's a typo please someone check it) * non-interleaved AVIs should be played with -ni * OGG -> OGG/OGM
