Originally I wanted to change the whole audio/video data handling before 1.2.0,
but when I started doing so yesterday I realized that this would touch too many
other things and might even break stuff that already works fine.
I therefore decided to postpone the whole thing until after 1.2.0 and just do
some more fixes and small enhancements. That way the time until a stable 1.2.0
isn't unnecessarily prolonged...
