WARNING:
========

This is a developer version. Even though I use it in my productive
environment. I strongly recommend that you only use it under controlled
conditions and for testing and debugging.

Approaching version 2.0.0:
==========================

If all goes well, there will be just one more developer version after
this one, and then it's going to be version 2.0.0.

From the HISTORY file:
- Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Updated the Polish OSD texts (thanks to Marek Nazarko).
- Modified handling user inactivity in the shutdown handler to avoid a problem in case
  the system time is changed after VDR has been started (thanks to Udo Richter, reported
  by Sören Moch).
- Updated the Czech OSD texts (thanks to Ales Jurik).
- Changed the template for PLGCFG to $(CONFDIR)/plugins.mk (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- Updated the Swedish OSD texts (thanks to Richard Lithvall).
- Now clearing device bondings for devices that don't provide DVB-S in the Setup/LNB
  menu (reported by Juergen Lock).
- Fixed a possible deadlock in handling the tuners of bonded devices (thanks to
  Juergen Lock).
- Improved working around the broken driver values for SNR in case of a "TT-budget
  S2-3200" receiving DVB-S2.
- The demos in the "osddemo" plugin can now also be ended with the "Back" key.
- Fixed flashing OSD in "high level OSD" mode of the TT S2-6400 in case a menu is open
  while subtitles are being displayed.
- Fixed stuttering or asynchronous audio after changing the audio track. This is done
  by doing a "jump" to the current position, which clears all buffers. However, this
  only works with TS recordings. With PES recordings it causes a segfault - haven't
  been able to figure out why.
- Added a manual page for 'svdrpsend' (thanks to Tobias Grimm).
- Fixed immediately disappearing subtitle track menu in "high level OSD" mode of the
  TT S2-6400 when selecting "No subtitles".
- Updated the French OSD texts (thanks to Bernard Jaulin).
- Updated the Dutch OSD texts (thanks to Carel Willemse).
- Removed all "fuzzy" translations from the files ar.po, hu_HU.po and sr_SR.po, because
  more often than not they are just wrong.
- Now calling DeviceClear() in cTransfer::Receive() if the output device blocks, instead
  of not retrying for 10 seconds (reported by Andreas Mair, with help from Oliver Endriss).
- Updated the Spanish OSD texts (thanks to Luca Olivetti).
- Updated the Hungarian language texts (thanks to István Füley).
- Changed the calls to Skins.QueueMessage() in vdr.c that are related to reporting the
  status of the editing process back to Skins.Message() in order to have them appear
  immediately.
- When sorting recordings by name, folders are now always at the top of the list.
- Updated the Russian OSD texts (thanks to Oleg Roitburd).

INSTALL

@@ -424,6 +424,10 @@ Note that it doesn't make sense to use "Satellite Channel Routing" and
 of these methods, it is necessary that your devices are always created in the
 same sequence when the drivers are loaded. You may need to configure some
 proper "udev" rules to make sure this happens.
+If you use "Device Bonding" and you add devices to your setup that don't
+provide DVB-S and take up a position in which there used to be a bonded DVB-S
+device, make sure you open, adjust (if necessary) and confirm the Setup/LNB
+menu to have the device bondings set correctly again.
