Approaching version 2.2.0:
==========================

If there are no more serious bug reports, the final version 2.2.0 of VDR
shall be released on February 19, 2015, which marks the 15th anniversary
of VDR.
So please test this developer version intensely and report any problems
you might encounter as soon as possible.

DEADLINE FOR SUBMITTING TRANSLATIONS IS WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 18!

From the HISTORY file:
- Fixed a memory leak in case of broken Extended Event Descriptors (thanks to Lars
  Hanisch).
- Fixed the German translation of "Binary skip timeout (s)" (thanks to Matthias
  Senzel).
- Fixed the German translation of "VDR will shut down later - press Power to force".
- Fixed the Finnish translation of "Binary skip timeout (s)" (thanks to Rolf
  Ahrenberg).
- Updated the Lithuanian OSD texts (thanks to Valdemaras Pipiras).
- Added SDNOTIFY to Make.config.template (suggested by Christian Richter). Also
  added NO_KBD and BIDI.
- Added code from the "jumpplay" patch that makes the recording still be considered
  unviewed when stopping replay within RESUMEBACKUP seconds of the first mark.
- The new option "Setup/Replay/Alternate behavior for adaptive skipping" can be used
  to make adaptive skipping only halve the skip distance when the direction changes.
  That way you can reach the desired point in a recording even if you make one too
  many skips in a certain direction (see MANUAL for details).
- Fixed cCamSlot::Assign(), so that it actually ignores the value of Query if Device
  is NULL (as described in the header file).
- Added a missing VDRDIR="$(CWD)" to the clean-plugins target of the Makefile, to
  avoid error messages regarding the missing vdr.pc file.
- Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov).
- Updated the Ukrainian OSD texts (thanks to Yarema Aka Knedlyk).
- Updated the Romanian OSD texts (thanks to Lucian Muresan).
- Updated the Hungarian OSD texts (thanks to István Füley).
- Fixed switching channels in the Schedule menu after going through various Now and
  Schedule menus for different channels (reported by Matthias Senzel).
- Fixed setting the Blue button in the Schedule/Now/Next menus, so that it only shows
  "Switch" if the selected event is on a different channel.
- Added "NORDIG" to the list of "DVB/Standard compliance" options and using it to
  restrict the LCN (Logical Channel Numbers) parsing to networks that actually use
  this non-standard feature (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- In the "Edit recording" menu the '0' key can now be used on the "Name:" field to
  remove the name of the recording and replace it with the last element of the
  recording's folder path name (suggested by Christoph Haubrich). See MANUAL, section
  "Managing folders" for details.
- Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Nino Gerbino).
- The "Select folder" menu now adds the folder names of all existing recordings to
  any names that have been predefined in "folders.conf" (suggested by Sören Moch).
- Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto).
- Fixed the German translations of "latitude" and "longitude" (they were swapped).
- Updated the Hungarian OSD texts (thanks to Mario Fenneis).
- Modified runvdr.template to improve compatibility with the "bash" and "dash" shells.
- Changed the German translations if the texts related to "binary skipping" (based
  on a suggestion by Thomas Reufer).
- Updated sources.conf to reflect the fact that Astra 4A and SES5 are actually in
  two separate positions (thanks to Arthur Konovalov).
- Fixed cMarks::GetNextBegin() and cMarks::GetNextEnd() (thanks to Stefan Herdler).
  The behavior of these two functions is now exacly as described in the header file.
  Editing marks that are placed at exactly the same offset in a recording are now
  preserved in the cutting process.
- Changed the naming of "binary skip mode" to "adaptive skip mode" (suggested by
  Rolf Ahrenberg and Derek Kelly).
- cDvbPlayer and cReplayControl now use the same list of editing marks. This avoids
  inconsistent behavior with the "Skip edited parts" or "Pause replay at last mark"
  functions when the editing marks are manipulated during replay.
- Fixed setting an empty recording name or folder to a blank in the "Edit recording"
  menu (reported by Christoph Haubrich).
- Added a confirmation before renaming a recording to its folder name (suggested
  by Christoph Haubrich).
- Modified EntriesOnSameFileSystem(), so that it returns 'true' if either of the given
  files doesn't exist (to avoid any actions that might be triggered if files are on
  different file system), and changed handling the 'error' variable in cDirCopier, so
  that it is initialized to 'true' and will only be set to 'false' if the entire
  copy process has been successful (problem reported by Christoph Haubrich).
- Added the UPDATE-2.2.0 file.

Alternate behavior for adaptive skipping = no
When skipping in adaptive mode with the '1' and '3' keys, the
distance of the skip is halved with every key press after the
first change of direction. While this allows for locating a
particular position in a recording very fast, once you make
one step too many in the current direction you have no chance
of ever reaching the desired point any more. You will have to
wait for the timeout to occur and start adaptive skipping anew.
If this option is set to 'yes', the skip distance will only be
halved if the direction actually changes. That way, even if
you missed the target point, you can still back up to it.
