This API has been deprecated for eternities and microsoft
stopped shipping the headers in 2010 accoding to wikipedia,
so let's just remove it and focus on bringing the plugins
based on the newer APIs up to snuff.
Provides the following elements:
qtkitvideosrc: OS X video source relying on the QTKit API. Comes with
hard-coded caps as the API does not provide any way of querying for
formats supported by the hardware. Hasn't been tested a lot, but seems
to work.
miovideosrc: OS X video source which uses the undocumented/private
CoreMediaIOServices API, which is also the one used by iChat.
Present on latest version of Leopard and all versions of Snow Leopard.
Has been tested extensively with built-in cameras and TANDBERG's
PrecisionHD USB camera.
vtenc, vtdec: Generic codec wrappers which make use of the undocumented/
private VideoToolbox API on OS X and iOS. List of codecs are currently
hard-coded to H.264 for vtenc, and H.264 + JPEG for vtdec. Can easily be
expanded by adding new entries to the lists, but haven't yet had time to
do that. Should probably also implement probing as available codecs depend
on the OS and its version, and there doesn't seem to be any way to
enumerate the available codecs.
vth264decbin, vth264encbin: Wrapper bins to make it easier to use
vtdec_h264/vtenc_h264 in live scenarios.
iphonecamerasrc: iPhone camera source relying on the undocumented/private
Celestial API. Tested on iOS 3.1 running on an iPhone 3GS. Stops working
after a few minutes, presumably because of a resource leak. Needs some
love.
Note that the iOS parts haven't yet been ported to iOS 4.x.

New plugin for audio capture and playback using Windows Audio Session
API (WASAPI) available with Vista and newer (#520901).
Comes with hardcoded caps and obviously needs lots of love. Haven't
had time to work on this code since it was written, was initially just
a quick experiment to play around with this new API.

New plugin for low-latency video capture on Windows (#519935).
Uses Kernel Streaming, the lowest level API for doing video capture
on Windows (more or less just raw ioctls).

Add a new win32 videosink. Uses the DirectShow renderers for
high-performance video rendering on win32.
Currently only supports some YUV formats.
Rank PRIMARY, since it's much more useful for the common cases that the
directdraw sink (which only does RGB).
