 VDR Plugin 'streamdev' Revision History

+- added HTTP authentication
 - added preprocessor directive for ancient gcc
 - added Russian translation (thanks to Oleg Roitburd)
 - fixed assignment of externremux.sh's default location (reported by plautze)

+Now check the contents of streamdevhosts.conf. Does it contain a "0.0.0.0/0"

+If you want to access streamdev's HTTP server from the Internet, do *not* grant
+access for anyone by allowing any IP in "streamdevhosts.conf". Instead, pass the
+"-a" commandline option to streamdev-server. It takes a username and a password
+as argument. Clients with an IP not accepted by "streamdevhosts.conf" will then
+have to login. The VDR commandline will have to look like this:
+
+vdr ... -P 'streamdev-server -a vdr:secret' ...
+
+Note the single quotes, as otherwise "-a" will be passed to VDR and not to
+streamdev-server. The login ("vdr" in the example above) doesn't have to exist
+as a system account.
