[MPlayer-users] ANNOUNCE: more realmedia fixes

[Arpi]

Hi,

Ok I think the main issues with realmedia files are solved in CVS.
Latest fixes:
- support for 'sipr' audio codec (needs more testing, have just a few samples)
- support for RV40 (RP9) video (not really tested, need samples)
- fixed a-v sync for RV20 files (small (<0.3s) constant desync still possible!)
- fixed broken RV20/RV30 video demuxing (now dropping redundant/resent packets)
- fixed RV20 flavor/subtype setting (very-low bitrate files)

Known problems:
- files with RV10 video broken, both decoding and A-V sync.
  sorry, don't expect work on this, RV10 is so old and obsolete,
  and the RV10 codec is incompatible with the others, so it needs full
  reverse engineering yet another interface - just doesn't worth to do.
  there is an opensource rv10 codec in ffmpeg/libavcodec, but it's buggy.
- 'atrc' audio codec not yet supported

please test, and upload sample files with .txt describing the problem.
note, that i'm using RealPlayer 8 codecs, and the RP9 codec upgrade pack
(conatining the RV40 codec only), so it may not work with other RP versions.
