+VDR Plugin 'streamdev' Revision History
+---------------------------------------
+
+2004-??-??: Version 0.3.3
+
+- dropped support for non-ts streaming in vdr-to-vdr clients
+- implemented packet buffer that seems to improve distortions
+- greatly re-worked device selection on server and client
+  (vdr-to-vdr clients should behave exactly like clients with one card,
+  can't test conditional access, though)
+- now printing an error and exiting if streamdevhosts.conf is not existing
+- increased client stream priority to 1
+- implemented remote schedule to program remote timers directly from schedule
+- the servers are turned on by default now
+- new setup parameters "Bind to IP" for both servers for binding to a specific
+  interface
+- re-implemented section streaming (turned off by default, see setup menu)
+- implemented a possibility to prevent a shutdown when clients are connected
+  (patch VDR with patches/vdr-pluginactivity.diff if you want this feature)
+- implemented channel listing through channels.htm(l) URI
+
+????-??-??: Version 0.3.2
+
+... has myteriously disappeared :-)
+
+2004-02-16: Version 0.3.1 (unstable)
+
+- Added finnish language texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg)
+- Increased all ringbuffer sizes to 3 MB
+- Autodetecting VDR 1.2.x, 1.2.x with AutoPID and 1.3.x on compilation
+- Server is only restarted if necessary after confirming setup
+- Implemented PID-based streaming (only needed PIDs are transferred instead of
+  all PIDs of the requested channel) (configurable)
+- Implemented an editor for remote timers
+- Implemented manual EPG synchronization from client
+- Implemented Server Suspend remotely from client (configurable)
+- Implemented an IP-Editor for the setup menu

+- Increased initial number of clients to five
+- Implemented host-based authorization (syntax is equal to svdrphosts.conf)
+- Removed two irritating messages that appeared sometimes while exiting VDR

+  to behave like 0.2.0 (Always), 0.3.0 (Choose) or completely different (Never)
+- Added missing translation entries
+- Added PlugIn description to translation table
+- Fully upgraded to VDR 1.3.X regarding threading (but still works with 1.2.6)

+
+2003-10-10: Version 0.3.0 (unstable)
+
+- Implemented "Suspend Live TV" in the VDR server (configurable)
+- Reimplemented choice of device for live streaming (better for switching on
+  client, and server doesn't loose live-tv)
+- Added missing translation entries
+- Increased client's streaming buffer size from 1 to 3 MB
+- Updated installation instructions (including a patch to VDR that is 
+  recommended currently)
+- Updated manual
+

+- Added italian language texts (thanks to Angelus (DOm))
+- Added a missing i18n translation (thanks to DOm)
+- Added an #ifdef so the setup menu is displayed correctly with ElchiAIO 
+	(thanks to DOm for reporting this one)
+- It's possible to select the HTTP streamtype remotely, specified in the
+  URL in addition to the old behaviour (thanks to Michal Novotny)
+- Fixed creation ob remuxer objects in the server

+
+2003-06-08: Version 0.1.0beta3

+- Replaced the toolbox with a current version
+- Rewrote the server core from scratch

+
+- Server stops correctly on VDR exit
+- Fixed a race condition when several threads access the client device
+- Made server code more modular

+- Added Apid2, Dpid1 and Ppid in TS mode (silly me;) )
+
+2003-05-03: Version 0.0.2
+
+- Device is not deactivated anymore, since VDR does that itself
+- Server is correctly deactivated, so it can be faultlessly reactivated
+- Did some major code cleanup
+- Added new command to the PROTOCOL (to negotiate stream types)
+- Added the possibility to stream TS between two VDR's (which adds the 
+  possibility of having AC3, Teletext etc. on the client) - this is 
+  autonegotiated
+- Streamtype can be changed in the setup menu, if TS works too unreliable
+- Fixed a bug in multi-threaded device operation
+- Sharing an epg.data with a server will be possible even if there is no 
+  DVB-Device present
