[mythtv] MythTV: Windows frontend

[Torbjörn Jansson]

I have tested rtjpeg on winme and it looks like winme don't like YV12 color
format.
I have added a few rgb formats and it looks like it works better.

But I have some problems with the rgb conversion code. The rgb16 format
works most of the time but on my test file after a while the colors don't
look good.
It's like its missing a color or something. But its strange that it works at
the beginning of the file.

Another problem is that the rtjpeg decoding routines don't use the mmx
optimized code because I haven't figured out how to convert the mmx macros
and posibly the asembly code to compile on vstudio.
I tried to make it work but I only made it worse and ended up with loads of
errors.
I'm no assembly expert so feel free to help.

The color conversion routines coud also use mmx, I think I saw some code in
nupplevideo that coud work.
