Hello all,

I've been applying some patches and fixes to the freevo-1.5 and
mmpython-0-4 branches. If fact, all the reported bugs have now been
fixed. There are four or five more patches to apply, they'll be done in
the next couple of days.

The branch is available by getting the source from subversion with the
command:
svn co svn://svn.freevo.org/freevo/branches/rel-1-5/freevo
svn co svn://svn.freevo.org/kaa/branches/mmpython-0-4

I had to change mmpython for this bug:
[ 1402649 ] Audio language setting broken with MPlayer for DVD playback
because the audio channel id was not being extracted from the output of
lsdvd (tested with version lsdvd-0.15). In the process of making this
change I also added the full language name, so instead of en it gives
English, and also added the codec required i.e. ac3, dts. This change
has been done for both the audio selection and subtitle selection.

If you upgrade mmpython you will also need to rebuild the cache from
scratch. Touch /var/cache/freevo/freevo-rebuild-database and then run
freevo cache. If not you can remove /var/cache/freevo/mediainfo and then
run freevo cache. At least I think that this is correct.

The patches and fixes that have been applied are listed below. You can
look at these bugs by following the bugs link on the sourceforge page at:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=46652&atid=446895
The patches have status "pending" so that you can find them more easily
and see what the changes are.
