[MPlayer-dev-eng] [PATCH] Proof of concept extrasurround plugin

Hi,

I found some more bugs in the plugin...
I attached the new version and uploaded sample media to
MPlayerHQ/incoming/extrasurround

You can download the sample media from http://www.inf.bme.hu/~kisg/mplayer too.

WHAT'S NEW:
-> More bugs discovered.
-> More parametrized code, one step closer to finish the first TODO item.

TODO: 
-> Make it an option of the plugin
-> Use the same lowpass filter as in the original surround part of the plugin. 
    I couldn't figure the firfilter thingie out, so I stole^H^H^H^H^H reused
    the simple RC lowpass filter from sox.
-> Fix the bugs

KNOWN BUGS:
-> Many files don't play well. This includes many avi, every mp3, wav and mpeg1 
    files I tried.
    I couldn't figure out what the problem could be. The problem should be 
    somewhere in the buffer handling part, because the sound got f*cked up
    even when I set the out[4] and out[5] to 0.
    Somebody please help me! Sample media included in the upload.
-> I couldn't play any files with 48000 Hz sample rate. But it worked with
some 44100 Hz sample rate files. I don't exactly know why, but now the resample
workaround works with fout=44100. Nice, eh? :-) 

The workaround for 48kHz files is:
mplayer -aop list=resample,surround:fout=44100 filename

Included sample media:
216-DA-ExtraSurround-Works.avi -> this file works for me.
AP-Resample-Needed.avi -> works with resample workaround.
Edda-Alom-ExtraSurround-Fails.mp3 -> this file works with original 
				    surround plugin, but not with the 
				    modified version.
				    
Thanks for your time,
kisg
