Expect 17 replies saying this, but...


	int thread_func( void *unused );

Needs to be

	static int thread_func( void *unused );

Otherwise there's a hidden parameter in C++. In terms of C, the first 
one is more like:


	int thread_func(VE_Media *this, void *unused);


...which obviously isn't what you want.
