Version 1.7.27
Original announce message: VDR developer version 1.7.27 is now available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.27.tar.bz2 A 'diff' against the previous version is available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.26-1.7.27.diff MD5 checksums: bfeaa79a9e55144bca2b69139c45f1bb vdr-1.7.27.tar.bz2 b23344be51d3e2c2d96cc2dd4e8e564e vdr-1.7.26-1.7.27.diff 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. From the HISTORY file: - Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Changed the Green button in the "Edit timer" menu from "Once" to "Single" (suggested by Rolf Ahrenberg). - Fixed some typos in HISTORY and CONTRIBUTORS (thanks to Ville Skyttä). - The channel name column in the "What's on now/next" menu now adjusts its width to display the full short name of each channel (suggested by Dominic Evans). - Dropped the meanwhile obsolete script 'i18n-to-gettext'. - Removed the obsolete function cPlugin::RegisterI18n(). - Removed the obsolete typedef tI18nPhrase. - Adapted menu column widths of 'skincurses' to the wider HD OSD sizes. - Deactivated definition of __RECORDING_H_DEPRECATED_DIRECT_MEMBER_ACCESS (recording.h) and LEGACY_CRECEIVER (receiver.h) to trigger an error for any plugin that still uses the respective code. You can reactivate these to quickly make your plugin compile again, but beware that these code parts will be removed in one of the next versions. - Made the "overloaded-virtual" warning an error to detect hidden overloaded virtual functions (thanks to Anssi Hannula for pointing out -Werror=...). Plugin authors may want to change -Woverloaded-virtual to -Werror=overloaded-virtual in their Makefiles. - Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov). - Improved fast forwarding to the end of a timeshift recording. - The new function cDevice::DeviceName() returns a string identifying the name of the given device. - When toggling a timer between "Single" and "Repeating", the previous setting is now retained in case the user toggles back to the original value. - When estimating the remaining disk space (in hours), the average data rate of all existing recordings is now taken into account. If this value can't be determined, the previous value of 25.75 MB/min is taken. - No longer using GetFont() (which is not thread safe) in the 'osddemo' plugin. - No longer using GetFont() (which is not thread safe) in cSubtitleRegion::UpdateTextData(). - Fixed a memory leak in cSubtitleRegion::UpdateTextData(). - Moved setting LC_NUMERIC further up to make sure any floating point numbers use a decimal point (suggested by Tobias Grimm). - Added missing channel locking to cEIT. - Fixed reduced bpp support for DVB subtitles (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto). - Reverted some improvements to Make.config.template (thanks to Christian Ruppert). - Fixed handling IDLEPRIORITY in cDvbDevice::ProvidesChannel() (thanks to Frank Schmirler). |

Version 1.7.26
Original announce message: VDR developer version 1.7.26 is now available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.26.tar.bz2 A 'diff' against the previous version is available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.25-1.7.26.diff MD5 checksums: eb57398e44935ecb0bfc532bdfead312 vdr-1.7.26.tar.bz2 62e0f39e2c53ec2b5abd3ebb0e00ce3d vdr-1.7.25-1.7.26.diff 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. From the HISTORY file: - Now checking for NULL in cOsd::AddPixmap() (suggested by Christoph Haubrich). - Fixed the German translation of "VDR will shut down in %s minutes" (thanks to Frank Neumann). - The replay progress display is now turned on whenever a mark is toggled (not only when one is set). - Toggling a mark now restarts the timeout of the replay progress display. - Fixed a possible race condition with the SVDRP commands CLRE and PUTE, where EPG data from the transponder could be handled even though it shouldn't be handled for 10 seconds. - Added some missing member initializations in cBitmap. - Improved displaying the play mode in the ST:TNG skin. - Made the ST:TNG skin the default in case the user selected skin is not available. - Improved displaying signal strength and quality in the ST:TNG skin's channel display. - Fixed switching devices to the transponders of VPS recordings in case there are only bonded devices. The cDevice's "avoid device" mechanism has been replaced by using "occupied". - Fixed selecting devices for the EPG scan in case the primary device is bonded with an other one. - Removed the calls to EITScanner.UsesDevice(this) from dvb[hs]ddevice.c, because the code following these calls is only executed if LiveView is true, which is never the case when the EITScanner switches to a channel. - Removed the obsolete function cEITScanner::UsesDevice(). If a plugin has used this function to find out whether a call to its cStatus::ChannelSwitch() function was due to a live channel switch, it can use that function's new parameter LiveView. Any plugins that implement cStatus::ChannelSwitch() need to add the parameter 'bool LiveView' to that function. - Fixed parsing channel data in case the audio pid is 0. On channels that only broadcast Dolby Digital audio there were sometimes log entries like "changing pids of channel ... from ... to ..." with no apparent difference between the old and new set of pids. - Fixed checking pids in case a channel has only Dolby Digital audio. - The Green button in the "Edit timer" menu can now be used to toggle between single shot and repeating timers. This is the same as pressing '0' when the "Day" field is selected, but it works at any time (and is more obvious). - Revoked "If the first event in a schedule has a table id of 0x00, any incoming EIT data for that schedule from the DVB stream will be completely ignored". - Added a new plugin interface for implementing EPG handlers. + A plugin can implement an EPG handler by creating an object derived from cEpgHandler and implementing the necessary member functions. + The special handling of events with table id 0x00 has been dropped. For backwards compatibility EPG events with table ids lower than 0x4E will be treated as if they had a table id of 0x4E, and the new plugin 'epgtableid0' can be used to have them handled like in previous versions. + The default table id for a newly created cEvent has been changed to 0xFF, which is higher than any normal table id that is broadcast in the EIT data. See PLUGINS.html, section "Electronic Program Guide" for more information. |

Version 1.7.24
Original announce message: VDR developer version 1.7.24 is now available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.24.tar.bz2 A 'diff' against the previous version is available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.23-1.7.24.diff MD5 checksums: a034c5e399417dfc583483f650d003ee vdr-1.7.24.tar.bz2 aa1a2b202da92e65945ff39470b26618 vdr-1.7.23-1.7.24.diff 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. From the HISTORY file: - Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto). - Fixed a high load in case a transponder can't be received. - Improved the way DVB_API_VERSION is checked. - Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Fixed asserting there is a live programme if the primary device is bonded with a device that starts a recording on a different band. - Fixed the return type of cMyDeviceHook::DeviceProvidesTransponder() in PLUGINS.html. - Fixed a crash in a plugin using cDeviceHook when VDR ends (reported by Oliver Endriss). - Some improvements to the Makefiles (thanks to Christian Ruppert). - Fixed cRecording::LengthInSeconds(), which wrongfully rounded the result to full minutes (thanks to Christoph Haubrich). - Symbolic links are no longer resolved in cRecordings::ScanVideoDir() (thanks to Sundararaj Reel). - The epg.data file is now read in a separate thread to make the startup process faster in case the file is very large (suggested by Helmut Auer). - Fixed selecting the primary device for receiving the live viewing channel in case it is bonded with an other device and has no receiver attached to it. - Fixed a possible crash when canceling VDR while displaying subtitles, and the primary device is no longer available. - Improved handling subtitles of BBC channels. - No longer using tabs as delimiter in the EPG bugfix log (they were garbled in the log file). - Added a missing '.' after the month in VPS strings. - Added some missing 'const' to cDevice (thanks to Joachim Wilke). - Fixed handling the PrimaryLimit when requesting a device for live viewing (reported by Uwe Scheffler). - Removed superfluous calls to SetVideoFormat() from device constructors. This function is called in cDevice::SetPrimaryDevice(), anyway. - An ongoing editing process is now canceled if either the original or the edited version of the recording is deleted from the Recordings menu. - The SVDRP command DELR now won't delete a recording that is currently being edited. - Removed code stub for obsolete SVDRP command MOVT. - The DVB device adapters/frontends are now probed by scanning the /dev/dvb directory instead of looping through adapter/frontend numbers. This allows for "holes" in the device numbering. - cReadDir::Next() now skips directory entries "." and "..". - Fixed a possible deadlock in time shift mode. - Fixed switching into time shift mode when pausing live video (thanks to Reinhard Nissl for helping to debug this one). |

Version 1.7.21
Original announce message: VDR developer version 1.7.21 is now available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.21.tar.bz2 A 'diff' against the previous version is available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.20-1.7.21.diff MD5 checksums: 7300bfd997db1a848bd774fefe4aec80 vdr-1.7.21.tar.bz2 c4e745939f31543dd607b97d58fc86be vdr-1.7.20-1.7.21.diff 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. This version contains functions to determine the "signal strength" and "signal quality" through cDevice. If you are using a DVB card that contains an stb0899 frontend chip (like the TT-budget S2-3200) you may want to apply the patches from ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/Driver-Patches to the LinuxDVB driver source in order to receive useful results from that frontend. From the HISTORY file: - Fixed detecting frames for channels that split frames into several payloads (reported by Derek Kelly). - Now initializing Setup.InitialChannel to an empty string to avoid problems in case there is no setup.conf. - The start time of an edited recording is now set to the time of the first editing mark (thanks to Udo Richter). This obsoletes the CUTTIME patch. - Direct access to the members start, priority, lifetime, and deleted of cRecording as well as to position and comment of cMark is now deprecated. Plugin authors should switch to the new access functions for these members. For now the macro __RECORDING_H_DEPRECATED_DIRECT_MEMBER_ACCESS is defined in recording.h, which exposes these members, so that existing plugins will still compile. Comment out this #define to check whether a particular plugin needs to be modified. This #define may be removed in a future version. - The new functions cRecording::NumFrames() and cRecording::LengthInSeconds() return the number of frames and length (in seconds) of a recording (suggested by Steffen Barszus). - The subtitle PIDs are now stored in the channels.conf file as an extension to the TPID field (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - The new function cDevice::ProvidesEIT() is used to determine whether a device can provide EIT data and will thus be used in cEITScanner::Process() to receive EIT data from the channels it can receive (suggested by Rolf Ahrenberg). Note that by default it is assumed that a device can't provide EIT data, and only the builtin cDvbDevice returns true from this function. - The Audio and Subtitles options are now available through the Green and Yellow keys in the Setup/DVB menu (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). This is mainly for remote controls that don't have dedicated keys for these functions. - The SVDRP command HITK now accepts multiple keys (up to 31). - The Recordings menu now displays the length (in hours:minutes) of each recording (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). Note that the "new" indicator has been moved from the recording time to the length column. This new format is also used by the SVDRP command LSTR, so in case you have an application that parses the LSTR output, you will need to adjust it to the new format. - The dvbsddevice plugin now supports the new option --outputonly, which disables receiving on SD FF devices and uses the device only for output (thanks to Udo Richter). - Fixed detecting frames on radio channels (reported by Chris Mayo). - Revoked the changes to cFrameDetector that have been introduced in version 1.7.19. Detecting frames in case the Picture Start Code or Access Unit Delimiter extends over TS packet boundaries is now done by locally skipping TS packets in cFrameDetector. |

Version 1.7.19
Original announce message: VDR developer version 1.7.19 is now available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.19.tar.bz2 A 'diff' against the previous version is available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.18-1.7.19.diff MD5 checksums: 1eb04ecdc2b11ab8641ebfaa2cb93f42 vdr-1.7.19.tar.bz2 db16ce7bb51e0db837ed56ef4744a67e vdr-1.7.18-1.7.19.diff 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. This version introduces functions to determine the "signal strength" and "signal quality" through cDevice. If you are using a DVB card that contains an stb0899 frontend chip (like the TT-budget S2-3200) you may want to apply the patches from ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/Driver-Patches to the LinuxDVB driver source in order to receive useful results from that frontend. Since apparently the various frontend drivers return different maximum values in their FE_READ_SIGNAL_STRENGTH and FE_READ_SNR functions (some deliver a value in the range 0x0000...0xFFFF, while others return values as "dB/10" or "dBm/10" (the latter with an offset to make the value positive, since the parameter is unsigned), the functions cDvbTuner::GetSignalStrength() and cDvbTuner::GetSignalQuality() use the device's "subsystem ID" to map these values into the range 0...100, which is the normalized return value of these functions. Take a look at these two functions and maybe remove the comment characters from the lines //#define DEBUG_SIGNALSTRENGTH //#define DEBUG_SIGNALQUALITY in dvbdevice.c to get some debug output if your device doesn't return any directly useful values and may have to be added appropriately to the 'switch (subsystemId)' statement. The channel display of the 'sttng' skin uses these values to implement a signal strength/quality display. From the HISTORY file: - Fixed cString's operator=(const char *String) in case the given string is the same as the existing one (thanks to Dirk Leber). - Avoiding a gcc 4.6 compiler error in the skincurses plugin (thanks to Tobias Grimm). - TsGetPayload() now checks if there actually is a payload in the given TS packet (reported by Dirk Leber). - Now sorting the source file names in the call to xgettext, to make sure the results are not dependent on the sequence of the files. Plugin authors may want to change the line containing the xgettext call in their Makefile accordingly by changing "$^" to "`ls $^`". - The primary device is now only avoided for recording if it is an old SD full featured card. This is done through the new function cDevice::AvoidRecording(). - Subtitle PIDs are now also decrypted (thanks to Reinhard Nissl). - Fixed a possible race condition in cDiseqc::Execute() (reported by Marco Göbenich). The return value of cDiseqcs::Get() is now const, so plugin authors may need to adjust their code if they use this function. - The new functions cDevice::SignalStrength() and cDevice::SignalQuality() can be used to determine the signal strength and quality of a given device (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg for some input on how to use BER and UNC values to generate a "quality" value). - The 'sttng' skin now displays two colored bars at the bottom of the channel display, indicating the strength (upper bar) and quality (lower bar) of the received signal. The number to the left of these bars indicates the actual device the current channel is being received with. - Fixed detecting frames in case the Picture Start Code or Access Unit Delimiter extends over TS packet boundaries (reported by Johan Andersson). In order to fix this, the semantics of cFrameDetector had to be changed a little. See cRecorder::Action() and cIndexFileGenerator::Action() on how to use the new cFrameDetector::NewPayload() function. - The frame detector now only starts collecting PTS values after it has seen the first I-frame, otherwise it might get MaxPtsValues values and stop analyzing even though the incoming data is still garbage (reported by Derek Kelly). - The info file of a recording is now only overwritten with a new fps value if that new value is not the default value (thanks to Derek Kelly for reporting a problem with the fps value being overwritten in case a recording was interrupted and resumed, and the fps value could not be determined after resuming recording). - The initial channel is now stored by the channel ID in the setup.conf file, in order to avoid problems in case channels are reordered or deleted (reported by Lars Bläser). - Added support for "content identifier descriptor" and "default authority descriptor" to 'libsi' (thanks to Dave Pickles). |

Version 1.7.16
- Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto). - Added missing Dtypes for ATSC (thanks to Alex Lasnier). - Updated the Portuguese language texts (thanks to Cristiano A. Silva). - Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Fixed the array size of Atypes in cPatFilter::Process() (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Added locking to the cCutter functions to avoid a crash in case CutRecording() is called from a plugin (reported by Andreas Mair). - Fixed DDS detection for HD resolution subtitles (thanks to Reinhard Nissl). - Fixed following symbolic links in RemoveFileOrDir(). - Added support for languages that are written right-to-left (based on a patch from Osama Alrawab). See INSTALL for information on how to turn this on. - Added Arabian language texts (thanks to Osama Alrawab). |

Version 1.7.12
- Changed the EVCONTENTMASK_* macros to enums and changed "mask" to "group". - Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov). - The "Edit timer" menu can now set the folder for the recording from a list of folders stored in "folders.conf". - Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto). - If svdrphosts.conf contains only the address of the local host, the SVDRP port is opened only for the local host (thanks to Manuel Reimer). - Renamed 'runvdr' to 'runvdr.template' and no longer copying it to the BINDIR in 'make install' (thanks to Martin Dauskardt). - Added plain text error messages to log entries from cOsd::SetAreas() (suggested by Rolf Ahrenberg). - cPalette::ClosestColor() now treats fully transparent colors as "equal"; improved cDvbSpuBitmap::getMinBpp() (thanks to Matthieu Castet and Johann Friedrichs). - The new setup option "Miscellaneous/Channels wrap" controls whether the current channel wraps around the beginning or end of the channel list when zapping (thanks to Matti Lehtimäki). - Fixed determining the frame duration on channels where the PTS deltas jitter by +/-1 around 1800. - The PCR pid in generated PMTs is now set to the channel's PCR pid again. - Fixed determining the frame duration on channels where the PTS deltas jitter by +/-1 around 3600. - The PCR pid is now recorded for channels where this is different from the video PID. To facilitate this, the interfaces of cTransfer, cTransferControl, cRecorder and cReceiver have been modified, so that the PIDs are no longer given in separate parameters, but rather the whole channel is handed down for processing. The old constructor of cReceiver is still available, but it is recommended to plugin authors that they switch to the new interface as soon as possible. When replaying such a recording, the PCR packets are sent to PlayTsVideo() - The files "commands.conf" and "reccmd.conf" can now contain nested lists of commands. See vdr.5 for information about the new file format. |

Version 1.7.11
- Fixed resetting the file size when regenerating the index file. - The new function cDevice::PatPmtParser() can be used in derived devices to access the PAT/PMT of the currently replayed material. - Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto). - The PCR pid in generated PMTs is now set to 0x1FFF ("no PCR pid") in cPatPmtGenerator::GeneratePmt(), because VDR doesn't record the PCR pid. - Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov). - The 'sky' plugin is no longer part of the VDR source. - Improved SPU handling on devices with limited OSD capabilities (thanks to Matthieu Castet). - Several code modifications to avoid compiler warnings (thanks to Winfried Köhler). - Added stream type 11172 AUDIO to cPatPmtParser::ParsePmt() (thanks to Johann Friedrichs). - Removed debug output of '-' from cTransfer::Receive(). - Added defines for large files to the 'newplugin' script (reported by Udo Richter). - Removed the workaround for short channel names of "Kabel Deutschland", because apparently they now have their data according to the DVB standard (thanks to Johann Friedrichs). - Some fixes to dvbspu.[hc] (thanks to Johann Friedrichs). - Fixed a busy loop when moving editing marks (thanks to Johann Friedrichs). - Updated sources.conf (thanks to Derek Kelly). - Modified cCharSetConv so that it can be used to convert from "whatever VDR uses" to a given code (thanks to Joachim Wilke). - Channel names containing commas are now handled correctly in channels.conf. If a channel's short name contains a comma, it is replaced with a '.'. - cDevice now logs the device number when a new device is created. - Fixed handling STREAMTYPE_11172_AUDIO in cPatPmtParser::ParsePmt(). - cParsePatPmt now has functions to retrieve the audio, dolby and subtitle pids. - cPatFilter::Process() now only stores CA descriptors for video and audio pids (thanks to Francesco Saverio Schiavarelli for reporting a problem with channels that have some encrypted components that VDR doesn't use). - cDevice::AddPid() now stores the stream type of the given pid (thanks to Andreas Regel). - Added cFont::FontName() and cFont::Size() (thanks to Andreas Regel). - cPatPmtParser now also stores the audio stream types. - The support for full featured DVB cards of the TT/FuSi design has been moved into the new plugin 'dvbsddevice'. On systems that use such a card as their primary device, this plugin now needs to be loaded when running VDR in order to view live or recorded video. If the plugin is not loaded, the card will be treated like a budget DVB card, and there will be no OSD or viewing capability. - Fixed handling the "CA PMT" generation (revised a change not mentioned in version 1.7.9's changes, which caused a malfunction with Conax and Viaccess CAMs). - Fixed stopping subtitle display when switching the primary device (thanks to Anssi Hannula). IMPORTANT NOTE TO PLUGIN AUTHORS: a plugin that implements a derived cDevice class that can replay video must now call the MakePrimaryDevice() function of its base class. - Fixed compiler warnings "format not a string literal and no format arguments" in some syslog calls (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - The new command line options --edit and --genindex can be used to edit a recording or generate its index without actually starting the entire VDR (based on a patch from Helmut Auer). - Improved the description of the transponder parameters in vdr.5 (thanks to Winfried Köhler). - Avoiding setting the video stream type to 2 if the vpid is 0 (problem reported by Arthur Konovalov). - Implemented handling the "Content Descriptor" (based on a patch from Rolf Ahrenberg). The 'classic', 'sttng' and 'curses' skins display the textual representation of the content descriptors as "genre". The epg.data file stores the genre using the tag character 'G'. - Implemented handling the "Parental Rating Descriptor" (based on a patch from Rolf Ahrenberg). The 'classic', 'sttng' and 'curses' skins display the parental rating (if given) in their event displays. The epg.data file stores the parental rating using the tag character 'R'. IMPORTANT NOTE: if VDR doesn't display a parental rating, this does not necessarily mean that the given programme is suitable for all audiences! - Rearranged cEvent members to minimize memory waste. - After a CLRE command, no further EPG processing is now done for 10 seconds, so that data sent with subsequent PUTE commands doesn't interfere with data from the broadcasters (suggested by Helmut Auer). - Added support for DVB cards with multiple fontends. Note that this only works for DVB cards where each frontend can be used independently of all the others on the same adapter. - Fixed plugin arguments corruption with glibc 2.11 on x86_64 (thanks to Anssi Hannula). |
