0.10.3
Bug Fixes
* Localization has been fixed for the Qt 5 build.
0.10.2
Bug Fixes
* libvlc's internal screensaver inhibitor is now explicitly disabled.
Applications are expected to inhibit manually (from an API they always
were; now this is actually correctly abstracted from libvlc's defaults).
The built-in libvlc inhibition is not consistent with other backends'
behavior and can in fact cause dbus time outs when attempting to uninhibit
on player shutdown (e.g. applications getting stuck for 30 seconds on quit).
* CMake output for libvlc has been made more verbose to aid diagnostics when
libvlc is not found, or not completely found anyway. Previously the verbose
output was only generated on success scenarios, where it is distinctly less
useful, now it is also generated when libvlc was not found.

Centred around improving behavior with VLC 3.0
which introduced new API allowing correct roles being set on
PulseAudio streams and as a result notification volume control is now
actually working as expected. This also means automatic corking of
music streams on voice calls can work correctly.

Follow up dependency update for multimedia/phonon-backend-vlc.

Changes
* VLC 2.0 support was removed, VLC 2.1 is at least required to use the
backend
* CMake requirement aligned with libphonon (2.6.2 => 2.8.9)
* Muting is now implemented asynchronously
Bug Fixes
* Restore build support with Qt <= 5.2 in the Qt 5 build.
* Fixed building videowidget for OSX.
* Fixed schemeless URLs
VLC 2.2 API Pickup
* New device listing API used for listing devices without PulseAudio
enabled
* New internal signals for muting, corking, and volume changes (these
directly relate to new AudioOutputInterface49 API in libphonon providing
these new libvlc features with appropriate frontend control in libphonon)
* This partially improves PulseAudio integration as at least volume and
mute control is now working correctly again via libvlc natively.
PulseAudio Limitations
* PulseAudio support is still not fully backed via libvlc and cannot be
correctly intercepted by libphonon. As a result the following features
continue to not work correctly:
* runtime-device-rerouting: changing the device order in the Phonon
configuration at runtime cannot force libvlc to use the correct
device, if a device was manually set before it will not automatically
migrate to a new device
* runtime-device-selection: selecting a device at runtime is not possible
(see above), as a result applications wanting to do this will get no
result and a warning will be shown. This also means that the
configuration module's Test button does not actually play a sound for
anything but the primary device.
* stream-category: setting a stream category (pulesaudio role) is not
possible, all streams are always category Video
