*	player: load external subs for uncompressed rar archives	wm4	2013-12-06	1	-0/+12
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Uncompressed rar archives can be transparently opened, but the filename the player doesn't have the direct filename (but something starting with rar://... instead). This will lead to external subtitles not being loaded. This doesn't handle multi-volume rar files, but in that cases just use the --autosub-match=fuzzy option. Fixes #397 on github.
*	stream: add uncompressed rar support	wm4	2013-08-26	1	-0/+198
	Apparently, it is popular to store large files in uncompressed rar archives. Extracting files is not practical, and some media players suport playing directly from uncompressed rar (at least VLC and some DirectShow components). Storing or accessing files this way is completely idiotic, but it is a common practice, and the ones subjected to this practice can't do much to change this (at least that's what I assume/hope). Also, it's a feature request, so we say yes. This code is mostly taken from VLC (commit f6e7240 from their git tree). We also copy the way this is done: opening a rar file by itself yields a playlist, which contains URLs to the actual entries in the rar file. Compressed entries are simply skipped.
