May release.

As usual, get it from http://batleth.sapienti-sat.org/projects/VDR/

Two main things:

- bug fix: doesn't open a X window when using latest mplayer from CVS
- new feature: can play MPEG files directly without scaling; with this
  option you should be able to hires MPEGs even on very slow computers

For the next release I plan to add the DVD title patch from Sven Goethel
that he posted today.

Here the ChangeLog for this release:
# 0.8.2 - changed the way mplayer is called to identify files;
#         should prevent the opening of a X window, that happens
#         on some systems
#       - play mpeg files without any scaling if possible
#       - added config line for AC3 out via DVB card (thanks to
#	  Christian Jacobsen)
#       - added a new config option to choose the video out device;
#         intended for dx3 users
#       - added config options for subtitles (thanks to Martin
#	  Åkerström)
#       - fixed a bug when SLOW_CPU is set to "false" instead of being
#         just commented out
#       - minor code clean-up
#       - cleanup some comments and messages

Have fun!
Juri
