rygel-0.32.1-xbmc4xbox.patch

This patch creates a new ClientHack derivative which will detect the specific version of XBMC running on the orginal XBox (big black box) and will force transcoding to MPEG_TS_SD_EU_ISO for videos having a resolution that is too much for the xbox to handle.

It detects the xbox based on the exact platinium version used by latest (2yo) Xbmc4xbox version. Couldn't find another way as xbmc4xbox doesn't advertise itself as such when browsing. User agent used:

Browsing: Platinum/0.5.3.0, DLNADOC/1.50
Getting files: XBMC/3.5.3-r33027 (Xbox; http://www.xbmc.org)

By running it before the XbmcHacks in the ClientHacks switch, it won't interfere.

I pushed a slightly modified version of the patch.
