VideoOutPlugins - Video Filters
===============

video filters are plugin-like code modules implementing the interface
defined in vf.h

basically it means video output manipulation, ie. these plugins can
modify the image and the image properties (size, colorspace etc) between
the video decoders (vd.h) and output plugins (libvo or video encoders)

the actual API is a mixture of the video decoder (vd.h) and libvo
(video_out.h) APIs.

the main differences:
- vf plugins may be "loaded" multiple times, with different parameters
  and context - it's new in mplayer, old APIs weren't reentrant
- vf plugins don't have to implement all functions - all funcs has
  'fallback' version, so teh plugins only override these if want
- each vf plugin has its own get_image context, and they can interchange
  images/buffers using these get_image/put_image calls.

API details:
-- TO DO --  (see vf.h fpr API and vf_*.c for examples)

Current plugins:
================

-vop crop[=w:h:x:y]
    Simple cropping plugin.
    w,h (cropped width,height) defaults to original width,height
    x,y (position of cropped subimage on the original image) defaults to center
    MPI: EXPORT only, using stride manipulation
-vop expand[=w:h:x:y:o]
    Expanding _and_ (optional) OSD rendering plugin.
    w,h (expanded width,height) defaults to original width,height
    x,y (position of original image on the expanded image) defaults to center
    o   (0=disable/1=enable SUB/OSD rendering) defaults to 0
    MPI: DR (if possible) or copy
    Special: mpcodecs core uses it to solve stride restrictions between filters
	     mencoder uses (autoload) it to render SUB/OSD
-vop flip
    Flips image upside-down.
    No parameters.
    MPI: DR (if possible) or EXPORT, using stride manipulation
    Special: dec_video autoloads it when flipping is required and libvo can't do

-vop scale[=w:h]
    Software scaling (zoom) _and_ yuv<->rgb colorspace conversion
    w,h (new width/height after scaling) defaults to original width,height
	note: if -zoom is used, and underlaying filters (including libvo)
	uncapable of scaling, then it defaults to d_width/d_height !
    MPI: TEMP, accepts stride
    Special: dec_video and mpcodecs core autoloads it for colorspace conv.

-vop yuy2
    Forced software YV12/I420 -> YUY2 conversion
    (usefull for video cards/drivers with slow YV12 but fast YUY2 support)
    MPI: TEMP, accepts stride

-vop rgb2bgr[=swap]
    RGB 24/32 <-> BGR 24/32 colorspace conversion (default) or
    RGB 24/32 <-> RGB 24/32 conversion with R<->B swapping ('swap' option)
    MPI: TEMP, accepts stride
    
-vop format[=fourcc]
    _restrict_ the list of supported colorspaces (query-format()) to a single,
    given fourcc. The 'fourcc' option defaults to 'yuy2', but may be any
    format name, like rgb15, bgr24, yv12 etc...
    note again, it does NOT do any conversion, it just limits the _next_
    plugins format list.
    MPI: -

-vop pp[=flags]
    Postprocessing filter.  (usefull for codecs without built-in
    postprocessing, like libmpeg12 or libavcodec)
    Flags is a bitmask set of enabled filters (see manpage for -pp details),
    defaults to the value of divx_quality (set by -pp commandline option)
    MPI: DR (if possible) or TEMP
    Special: dec_video autoloads it if -pp option used but codec can't do pp.

-vop fame
    Fast software YV12->MPEG1 conversion, usefull for dxr3/dvb drivers
    MPI: EXPORT special
