Hello 

I guess this is mainly imprortant for developeres - 
after a long time there is finaly a method to retrieve available
codecs instead of reading them from video_codecs & audio_codecs -
access to them is now cosidered to be obsolete.

Developer should now use this method from infotypes.h:
    
    static void Get(avm::vector<const CodecInfo*>&, Media media = Video,
                    Direction direction = Decode, fourcc_t fcc = ANY);

They could even set some conditions.

I would really like to know how many active developers are using avifile
(well if there are some :) of course) - it seems to be harder to maintian
backward compatibility sometimes and might be much easier to simply replace
badly designed parts with something newer - and if I'd the only
user :) why should I torture myself :)


Anyway for the menation feature of the week I think now it should work slightly
better codec order selection - not in the terms of GUI usability :)
(but at least only in those decoders which are usable for the played
movie are being shown) - but the player should apply the changes immediately
right after Apply button - it has its problems at this moment but
I think it looks nicely.
