Updated patch with a more graceful way to exit the thread.

As for mp_fifo, if we're guaranteed with a single producer (vo thread)
and a single consumer (main thread) then we needn't do any trick to
ensure thread safety because it's implemented as a circular queue.

If the main thread also put keys into the fifo we have to leverage a
mutex but I guess this shouldn't happen once we have a vo?
