The first release candidate of XviD 1.0.0, codenamed "Niltze", is now
available.

Binary compatibility is preserved. Most of the changes are only win32
frontend related.

Changes since 1.0.0 beta3 (Selam):

* xvidcore
  - Scaled zones should now work in 2pass 1&2.
  - Qpel is disabled during first pass now.
  - Bug in PP using MB quants badly initialized.
  - Changed Win32 build type to DLL.

* VFW frontend
  - Changed linking policy. Links against xvidcore.dll.
    The vfw component is now xvidvfw.dll.
  - GUI improvements.
  - Added PP options as in DShow frontend.
  - Added easier constant quant encoding as most of users complained
    though the feature was available thanks to zones.

* DShow frontend
  - Changed linking policy. Links against xvidcore.dll.
  - Better seeking.
  - Fixed colorspace usage.
