396d0ad367 Version 1.3.46
- Fixed handling broken PMT records (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg for pointing out how
  to detect these).
- Added a missing "Button$" for the Timer button and "Key$" in skinclassic.c
  (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Fixed broken entry 'A111.1W' in sources.conf (reported by Luca Olivetti).
- Replaced the obsolete entry 'S21.5E' in the default 'diseqc.conf' with 'S13.0E'
  (reported by Ville Skyttä).
- Fixed learning keys when VDR is already running (thanks to Jurij Retzlaff).
- Fixed handling the system time transponder setting in the Setup/EPG menu, which
  was broken by the min/max fix in cMenuEditIntItem.
- VPS timers now record only events that have exactly the given start time.
  This fix also implements recording several subsequent events that have the
  same VPS time (like a sports event with intermittent news breaks).
- When checking for timers that have entered the "VPS margin", any free devices are
  now used to switch to the needed transponder. This improves cases where more than
  one VPS timer is about to start.
- Fixed handling the VPS margin in case the event's duration is shorter than the
  margin.
- Fixed handling VPS timers in case the primary device needs to switch to the
  timer's transponder.
- Now avoiding the 'actual' device when starting a recording, so that a Transfer
  Mode for live tv isn't interrupted.
- Fixed a typo in skins.h (thanks to Alexander Rieger).
- cSkins::QueueMessage() called from a background thread with an empty message
  now clears all messages that have been previously queued by that thread and have
  not yet beed displayed (thanks to Alexander Rieger).
- Fixed handling the color button texts when switching from the 'Schedule' menu of
  a channel without EPG info to the 'What's on now' menu (reported by Rolf
  Ahrenberg).
- cMenuEditIntItem and cMenuEditChanItem can now be given strings to label the
  minimum and maximum values, and the case that no channel has been selected,
  respectively.
- The initial channel and volume can now be defined in the "Setup/Miscellaneous"
  menu (based on a patch from Thomas Keil).
- When hitting the end of a recording in fast forward mode, VDR no longer switches
  back to normal speed if the recording is already finished (thanks to Reinhard
  Nissl).
- No longer calling cPlugin::ProcessArgs() if VDR is run with the --help or
  --version option, to avoid error messages from plugins (reported by Udo Richter).
- Now checking whether there is any text before calling cStatus::MsgOsdTextItem()
  (reported by Joachim Wilke).

c37734080c Version 1.3.41
- EPG events from epg.data or SVDRP's PUTE command now have their Title set to
  "No Title" if none was set.
- Fixed checking toFile in cCuttingThread::Action() (found in a larger patch from
  Artur Skawina).
- Fixed a crash when pressing '0' in the "Schedule" menu on a channel that doesn't
  have any EPG data (reported ny Alexander Hans).
- Updated the Danish OSD texts (thanks to Mogens Elneff).
- Fixed a missing ',' in the Greek OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov).
- Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov).
- Fixed handling the tfRecording flag when reading timers (bug reported by Andreas
  Mair).
- Now checking whether the channel exists before setting the PMT filter in
  cPatFilter::Process() (thanks to Thomas Bergwinkl).
- Now trying to reestablish the connection to the LIRC daemon in case it breaks
  (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Fixed channel switching with the Down (Up) key in case the current channel is
  already the first (last) in the list (reported by Frank Krömmelbein).
- Removed the "buffer reserve" in Transfer Mode - it's no longer necessary with
  recent driver/firmware versions.
- The epg.data file is now written when VDR exits (suggested by Daniel Karsubka).
- Fixed cTimers::GetNextActiveTimer() so that it won't return an expired timer
  (reported by Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Changed DVBS_TUNE_TIMEOUT and DVBC_TUNE_TIMEOUT to 9000ms to avoid problems with
  channels that have low symbol rates (reported by Suur Karu).
- Fixed displaying the current audio track in the channel display.
- When reading epg.data (or data from PUTE), the version number of events with
  table IDs smaller than 0x50 is now ignored because otherwise the current
  running status would not be set after a restart of VDR.
- Implemented a timeout for remote controls that don't deliver "repeat" keypresses
  very fast (based on a suggestion by Luca Olivetti; problem with the new handling
  of k_Repeat keypresses in channel switching reported by Udo Richter).
- When looking for the present or following EPG event, the running status is now
  always taken into account.
- Now initializing the channels' schedule pointers when reading the epg.data file,
  so that the first WhatsOn menu will come up faster.
- If a shutdown is requested, but the shutdown script doesn't actually halt the
  system, it is now tried again after 5 minutes (suggested by Helmut Auer).
- Separated the 'install' target into several individual targets; renamed the
  'plugins-install' target to 'install-plugins' (thanks to Helmut Auer).

d5c85f5ff8 Version 1.3.32
- Added some missing braces in remux.c (thanks to Wayne Keer for reporting this one).
- Removed unused MAINMENUENTRY from svdrpdemo.c (thanks to Udo Richter for reporting
  this one).
- Fixed appending sequence end code in cDvbPlayer::Goto() (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Fixed syncing in cRepacker (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Now always using stream id 0xE0 for the video stream, to avoid problems with
  post processing tools that choke on different ids (suggested by Reinhard Nissl).
- Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov).
- Fixed cDvbPlayer::SkipFrames() to properly handle radio recordings (thanks to
  Reinhard Nissl).
- Updated the Swedish OSD texts (thanks to Tomas Prybil).
- Updated the Slovenian OSD texts (thanks to Matjaz Thaler).
- Updated the Danish OSD texts (thanks to Mogens Elneff).
- Made LIRC command parsing more robust (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- Introduced a separate 'plugins-install' target in the Makefile (thanks to Daniel
  Thompson).
- Re-introduced the code that waits for a tuner lock in VDR/device.c, since
  apparently some users actually need it. It's not active by default, you'll have
  to define the WAIT_FOR_TUNER_LOCK macro in that file if you need it (suggested
  by Malcolm Caldwell).
- Adjusted the Makefile to the dvb-kernel driver on kernel 2.6 and up (thanks to
  Lauri Tischler).
- Repeat keys are now ignored when waiting for a keypress to cancel an operation
  (thanks to Marko Mäkelä).
- The main menu function of a plugin can now be activated through a key macro of
  the form "@plugin" even if that plugin doesn't have a main menu entry (using
  part of a patch by Hardy Flor, which originally implemented calling plugins from
  SVDRP).
- The menu timeout handling is now done centrally in the main program loop.
- Added missing help for the 'help' keyword in the SVDRP command PLUG.
- The main menu function of a plugin can now be called programmatically through
  the static function cRemote::CallPlugin().
- The SVDRP command PLUG now has a new option 'main' which can be used to initiate
  a call to the main menu function of a plugin (using part of a patch by Hardy Flor).
- The new command line option '--vfat' can be used to make VDR encode special
  characters in recording file names, even if it wasn't compiled with VFAT=1
  (suggested by Peter Bieringer). The compile time option VFAT still exists and
  creates a VDR that always behaves as if it were called with '--vfat'.
- Replaced the ':' delimiter between hour and minute in recording file names with
  a '.' under Linux, too. Existing recordings with ':' as delimiter will still work.
- Implemented the SVDRP command MOVC (thanks to Andreas Brachold).
- Added support for multiple audio language codes in ISO639LanguageDescriptors to
  'libsi' (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg).
- Changed the audio PID language codes to hold up to two 3 letter codes, separated
  by '+', to store separate languages broadcast in two channel audio mode.
- If the preferred audio language is broadcast on a PID that has two different
  languages in the two stereo channels, the audio channel is now properly set when
  switching to such a channel (thanks to Mogens Elneff for his help in testing this).
- Fixed some typos in MANUAL (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- Fixed the default value for "Setup/EPG bugfix level" (thanks to Ville Skyttä for
  reporting this one).
- Fixed defining timers that only differ in the day of week (thanks to Patrick
  Rother for reporting this one).
- Fixed converting summary.vdr files that would result in a very long 'short text'
  (thanks to Carsten Koch).
- Implemented a hash for the channels to reduce the system load in the EIT scanning
  thread (based on a patch by Georg Acher).

4c5de28883 Version 1.3.28
- Added a sleep in cDvbPlayer::Action() in case there is no data to send to the
  device, which avoids a busy loop on very fast machines (thanks to Martin Wache).
- Modified the description of cDevice::Poll() to avoid misunderstandings.
- Updated Croatian language texts (thanks to Drazen Dupor).
- cDvbPlayer::Goto() now appends a Sequence End Code to get the image shown
  immediately with softdevices (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Reactivated cVideoRepacker in remux.c after some fixes (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Removed the fix for handling VPS timers, so that they only record if the event
  they are assigned to actually has the given VPS time. This has caused repeating
  VPS timers to stop recording prematurely.
- Avoiding duplicate components in EPG events when reading epg.data or in the
  PUTE SVDRP command (thanks to Olaf Titz for reporting this one).
- Added the command line options '--lirc', '--rcu' and '--no-kbd' to allow setting
  the remote control at runtime (based on a patch by Darren Salt).
- Now checking whether timers or channels are currently being edited via the menu
  before making changes through SVDRP (thanks to Andreas Brugger for reporting a
  problem with this).
- Files and directories are now created with rights according to the shell's
  umask settings (thanks to Andreas Brachold).
- Fixed the cChannel copy constructor (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg for pointing out
  a problem with it).
- Fixed an out-of-bounds memory access with audio language ids (thanks to
  Matthias Lenk for reporting, and Udo Richter for suggesting a fix).
- Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Added missing storing of the MenuScrollPage parameter (thanks to Frank Krömmelbein).
- Added cRemux::SetTimeouts() for better use of cRemux in a single thread (thanks
  to Udo Richter for reporting a problem with this).
- Modified cEITScanner::Process() so that it uses the primary device if it is
  replaying and is the only device that provides the given transponder, and that
  a forced EPG scan works even if EPG scan timeout is set to 0 (thanks to
  Bernhard Stegmaier for reporting a problem with this).
- Fixed cDvbSpuBitmap::putPixel() (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Fixed setting system time to avoid time jumps in case of faulty data (thanks
  to Andreas Böttger).
- Fixed a memory leak in the SVDRP command LSTE (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt).

4d477cd144 Version 1.3.20
- Fixed displaying the "Audio" menu with the "Green" button from the "Main" menu
  in case there is only one audio track (thanks to Sascha Volkenandt for reporting
  this one).
- Now setting primaryDevice = NULL before deleting the devices in cDevice::Shutdown()
  to avoid problems in case other threads access it (thanks to Wolfgang Rohdewald for
  pointing this out).
- Fixed a buffer overflow in case a station defines all 32 audio PIDs (thanks to
  Christian Jacobsen for reporting this one).
- Fixed masking SubStreamType in cDevice::PlayPesPacket() (thanks to Werner Fink
  for pointing out this one).
- The new function cPlugin::Stop() shall be used to stop any background activities
  of a plugin. Previously this was done in the plugin's destructor, but it is
  better to do this in a dedicated function that can be called early when shutting
  down.
- Moved the call to SetAudioChannel(0) into cDevice::ClrAvailableTracks() to have it
  executed also when starting a replay.
- Completed the Danish OSD texts (thanks to Mogens Elneff).
- Completed the French OSD texts (thanks to Olivier Jacques).
- The new setup option "OSD/Channel info time" can be used to define the time after
  which the channel display is removed if no key has been pressed (thanks to
  Olivier Jacques).
- Modified cDolbyRepacker to make sure PES packets don't exceed the requested length
  (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Fixed several memory leaks that were introduced through the use of cString (thanks
  to Stefan Huelswitt for reporting these).
- Added CMD_SPU_CHG_COLCON to cDvbSpuDecoder::setTime() (thanks to Marco Schlüßler).
- Making sure the current audio track is actually one of the ones available in a
  recording (thanks to Sascha Volkenandt for reporting a problem when starting
  replay of a recording that has no Dolby Digital audio after switching to a channel
  that has DD and selecting the DD audio track).
- Removed 'flags' from tTrackId (thought we would need this, but apparently we don't).
- Making sure the "Mute" and "Volume+/-" keys don't interfere with digital audio.
- Fixed the "pre 1.3.19" compatibility mode for old Dolby Digital recordings (thanks
  to Werner Fink for pointing out that this can be triggered in the default branch).
- Calling pesAssembler->Reset() in cDevice::AttachPlayer() to avoid problems with
  residual data in replay and Transfer Mode (thanks to Werner Fink for pointing this
  out).
- Added MPEG1 replay capability to cPesAssembler (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt).

e36fe18c48 Version 1.3.19
- Making sure at least the default skin is available at program start in case a
  plugin needs to issue an error message (thanks to Achim Tuffentshammer for
  reporting a crash in such a case). Also checking if there is a current skin
  in cSkins::Message().
- Completed the Finnish OSD texts and fixed internationalization of the text
  for "Setup/DVB/Audio language(s)" (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Completed the Estonian OSD texts and switched to iso8859-13 character set
  (thanks to Arthur Konovalov).
- Made cCondWait::SleepMs() sleep at least 3ms to avoid a possible busy wait.
- Fixed canceling the LIRC thread (thanks to Marco Schlüßler for pointing out
  this one).
- The "Green" button in the "Main" menu is now always "Audio", since the audio
  channel might be changed even if there is only one actual audio PID.
- Fixed handling the '-E' option which was broken in version 1.3.18 (thanks to
  Christian Jacobsen for reporting this one).
- Added 'channels.conf.terr' entries for Mainz (thanks to Michael Heyse).
- Implemented cDolbyRepacker for better handling of Dolby Digital PES packets
  (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Fixed playing files with PES packets longer than 2048 byte through the full
  featured DVB card (thanks to Marco Kremer for reporting this one and providing
  a test sample).
- Recording and Transfer Mode now handle more than 2 audio PIDs. For this the
  interfaces of the following functions have been changed:
  cTransferControl::cTransferControl()
  cTransfer::cTransfer()
  cRecorder::cRecorder()
  cReceiver::cReceiver()
  cRemux::cRemux()
- Fixed a possible race condition in cDevice::Action() and cTSBuffer::Action()
  (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt).
- Extended some buffer sizes to allow handling HDTV streams (thanks to Reinhard
  Nissl).
- Added 'channels.conf.terr' entries for Düsseldorf and Köln (thanks to Walter Koch).
- Falling back to 'stereo' when switching channels in case the user had switched
  to 'left' or 'right' (suggested by Rolf Groppe).
- Completed the Danish OSD texts (thanks to Mogens Elneff).
- Recording and Transfer Mode can now handle up to 8 Dolby Digital tracks (thanks
  to Marco Schlüßler for a patch that implements substream handling into
  cDevice::PlayPesPacket(), and Reinhard Nissl for adding substream handling to
  cDolbyRepacker).
- Added PlayPes(NULL, 0) to cTransfer::Action() when clearing the transfer buffer
  to avoid overflows (thanks to Marco Schlüßler for pointing this out).

af483c11ae Version 1.3.13
- Fixed checking for the presence of NPTL (thanks to Jouni Karvo).
- Making sure section filters are only set if the device actually has a lock
  (thanks to Andreas Share for pointing this out).
- Fixed a possible NULL pointer assignment in cMenuText::SetText() (thanks to
  Marco Schlüssler).
- Fixed a crash in case the last line in channels.conf is a group separator and
  that group is selected in the channel display (thanks to Dick Streefland).
- Added cRingBufferLinear::Read() to read directly from a file handle into the
  ring buffer.
- Using timeouts in ring buffers to avoid 'usleep()'.
- Clearing the 'Transfer Mode' ring buffer after clearing the device to avoid
  an "almost full" ring buffer.
- Removed locking from cRingBufferLinear for better performance under high load.
- Using a cRingBufferLinear in cRemux to avoid unnecessary copying of data.
- Using a cRingBufferLinear in cTSBuffer and filling it in a separate thread
  to avoid buffer overflows. Plugins using cTSBuffer will need to remove the
  call to the now obsolete Read() function (see cDvbDevice::GetTSPacket() for
  the new usage of cTSBuffer).
- cRemux::Process() has been split into Put(), Get() and Del() to allow for a
  better decoupling of the remuxing and disk writing process. Plugins using
  cRemux will need to be modified accordingly.
- The actual disk writing in recordings is now done in a separate thread to
  improve the overall throughput.
- Changed cRemux so that it returns the maximum available amount of data with
  each call, not just 2048 byte.
- Added a visual display of all cRingBufferLinear buffers for debugging. To
  activate it, define DEBUGRINGBUFFERS in ringbuffer.h.
- Instead of cCondVar now using the new cCondWait (which also avoids a possible
  "near miss" condition; thanks to Sascha Volkenandt for pointing out this one).
  cCondVar is still present for plugins that use it (and VDR itself also still
  uses it in cRemote).
- The cRingBuffer now does EnableGet()/EnablePut() only if the buffer is more than
  one third full or empty, respectively. This dramatically improves recording
  performance and reduces system load (thanks to Marco Schlüßler for doing some
  testing regarding buffer performance and giving me some hints that finally led
  to finding out that this was the basic problem causing buffer overflows).
- Improved Transfer Mode (thanks to Marco Schlüßler for suggestions and testing).
- Fixed a possible crash with inconsistent SI data (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg).
- Fixed showing the replay mode if the OSD is currently in use (thanks to Kimmo
  Tykkala for pointing out this problem).
- cOsdProvider::NewOsd() now always returns a valid pointer, even if the OSD is
  currently in use (it will then return a dummy cOsd object and write a message to
  the log file).
- Added Estonian language texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov).
- Fixed 'newplugin' and libsi/Makefile to use the compiler defined in $(CXX) for
  generating file dependencies (thanks to Andreas Brachold).
- Moved the initialization of aPid1 and aPid2 to the beginning of cDvbDevice::cDvbDevice()
  to have them set in case a patch references them (thanks to Wayne Keer for pointing
  this out).
- Completed the Russian OSD texts (thanks to Vyacheslav Dikonov).
- Avoiding unnecessary section filter start/stops (thanks to Marco Schlüßler).
- Made the "Channel not available!" message and mtInfo instead of mtError (suggested
  by Wayne Keer).
- Made volume control more linear (thanks to Emil Naepflein and Udo Richter).
- Now skipping code table info in SI data (suggested by Milos Kapoun).
- Added missing Czech characters to fontosd-iso8859-2.c (thanks to Milos Kapoun).
- Fixed a crash in the time search mechanism (reported by Reinhard Nissl).
- If one PID can't be added, the whole cDevice::AttachReceiver() will now fail
  and all PIDs added so far will be deleted (thanks to Marco Schlüßler for
  pointing out this one).
- Now only saving channels.conf after a modification made by the user (avoids
  lots of disk access due to automatic channel updates). Automatic channel
  modifications will be saved every 10 minutes if no recording is currently
  active.
- Removed the 'Log' parameter from the cChannel::Set... functions. Instead
  checking if the channel has a non-zero number.
- Updated 'channels.conf.terr' for Hannover (thanks to Sven Kreiensen).

3c349510b5 Version 1.3.8
- Fixed a crash when switching the skin and having selected a non-default theme
  that is not available for the newly selected skin (thanks to Sascha Volkenandt
  for reporting this one).
- Fixed some issues with gcc 3.4 (thanks to Prakash K. Cheemplavam and Marcel
  Wiesweg).
- Added a hint to PLUGINS.html about how to name a plugin that implements a skin.
- Completed the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Single shot timers and events now show the day of week (adopted with some changes
  from the "elchi" patch, orginally introduced by Oskar Signell). Plugins that use
  cEvent::GetDateString() should note that this function now returns a longer
  string, including the day of week. The new function const char *WeekDayName(time_t t)
  can be called with a time_t value to get the day of week for that time.
- When processing XPM data, the color name "None" is now mapped to #00000000, which
  is "fully transparent" (suggested by Sascha Volkenandt).
- Fixed the OSD alignment in the SPU decoder (thanks to Miko Wohlgemuth for reporting
  this one and helping to test the fix).
- Fixed freezing picture when a recording starts on a system that always uses
  'Transfer Mode' (thanks to Michal Dobrzynski for reporting this one).
- Fixed a memory leak in NIT processing (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg).
- Added a few missing initializations (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg).
- Moved the declaration of cMenuText to VDR/menu.h to make it available to plugins.
  It now also has a SetText() function that can be used to dynamically set the text
  in an already existing cMenuText (both suggested by Stefan Huelswitt).
- Added play mode pmVideoOnly (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg).
- Added a missing cStatus::MsgOsdClear() to cDisplayChannel::~cDisplayChannel()
  (thanks to Oliver Endriss).
- No longer displaying unused color buttons in the "Classic VDR" skin (thanks to
  Oliver Endriss for reporting this one).
- Added some missing cStatus::MsgOsdTextItem() calls (thanks to Oliver Endriss for
  reporting this one).

9384e56566 Version 1.3.6
- Completed the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Fixed some descriptor handling in 'libsi' (thanks to Stéphane Esté-Gracias).
- Fixed handling the current menu item (thanks to Marc Hoppe).
- Fixed assigning events to timers (they no longer get "stuck").
- Added log entries whenever the running status of an event changes (currently
  only logging the first 30 channels).
- Fixed handling timers in VPS margin if the EPG scan is turned on (the EPG scan
  switched the device away from the channel, so it wouldn't see the change of
  the running status).
- Fixed handling "itemized" texts in EPG data (thanks to Stéphane Esté-Gracias
  for pointing out this problem, and Marcel Wiesweg for improving 'libsi').
- Fixed handling VPS times at year boundaries.
- Avoiding too many consecutive "ring buffer overflow" messages (which only
  slowed down performance even more).
- Taking the Sid into account when detecting version changes in processing the
  PMT (thanks to Stéphane Esté-Gracias for pointing out this problem).
- Completed the Russian OSD texts (thanks to Vyacheslav Dikonov).
- Any newline characters in the 'description' of EPG events are now preserved
  to allow texts to be displayed the way the tv stations have formatted them.
  This was also necessary to better display itemized texts.
- Fixed detecting the running status in case an empty EPG event is broadcast (thanks
  to Michael Pennewiß for pointing this out).
- Improved performance when paging through very long menu lists.
- Removed cSchedule::GetEventNumber() and cSchedule::NumEvents(). There is now
  cSchedule::Events() that returns the list of events directly.
- Avoiding occasional bad responsiveness to user interaction caused by assigning
  events to timers.
- Now explicitly turning on the LNB power at startup, because newer drivers don't
  do this any more (thanks to Oliver Endriss for pointing this out).

Klaus Schmidinger
7c5ef5dbba Version 1.3.3
- Completed the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Added ISO639LanguageDescriptor to 'libsi'.
- Changed the 'languageCode' members in the descriptor classes of 'libsi' to
  'char[4]' and setting the 4th byte to 0 for easier handling.
- Fixed frequency handling when setting the CA descriptors in cDvbTuner::Action()
  (thanks to Jan Ekholm for reporting and helping to debug this one).
- Now setting CA descriptors even if "Setup/DVB/Update channels" is less than 2.
- There can now be up to 32 audio and Dolby PIDs (however, currently still only
  the first two are used throughout the rest of the program).
- The audio and Dolby PIDs in 'channels.conf' now can have an optional language
  code (see man vdr(5)). Currently this is only stored and not yet used otherwise.
- Added a call to cStatus::MsgOsdCurrentItem() to cMenuEditItem::SetValue()
  (thanks to Martin Hammerschmid).

b8e837dbbb Version 1.3.2
- Fixed resetting the EPG data versions after changing the preferred languages
  (thanks to Teemu Rantanen for reporting this one and helping to debug it).
- Added LinkageDescriptor handling to 'libsi' (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg).
- Added Russian language texts (thanks to Vyacheslav Dikonov).
  Plugin authors may want to add the new entries to their I18N texts and contact
  the translators to have their texts translated. Note that there are now 17
  different OSD languages, so please make sure you have 17 versions for each of
  your texts.
- Some corrections and additions to the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf
  Ahrenberg and Niko Tarnanen).
- Fixed a wrong 'delta' value in the call to the shutdown script (thanks to
  Stephan Epstein for reporting this one).
- Activated detection of radio channels (to avoid reports about "channels not
  being detected that used to be detected with the 'scan' utility or the
  original 'autopid' patch ;-).
- Channels with a zero VPID no longer write a PPID into channels.conf.
- Short channel names are now only stored if they actually differ from the
  full name.
- The EPG scan now scans newly found transponders together with already existing
  ones.
- The "Red" button in the "Setup/EPG" menu can now be used to force an EPG
  scan on a single DVB card system (see MANUAL for details).
- The new SVDRP command 'SCAN' can be used to force  an EPG scan on a single
  DVB card system (see MANUAL under Setup/EPG for details).
- Fixed handling PID changes in 'Transfer Mode'.
- Excess blanks in channel names read from the SDT are now removed.
- Fixed wrong parameter settings when scanning NITs for terrestrial transponders
  (thanks to Christian Tramnitz for pointing out this one).
- Fixed some out of bounds parameter settings when scanning NITs for cable
  and satellite transponders.
- Added 'libsi' include files to the 'include' directory, so that plugins can
  use them (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg).
- Now only processing NITs that contain the transponder they are actually
  broadcast on.
- Fixed setting the source type for newly detected terrestrial transponders
  (thanks to Christian Tramnitz for his support in debugging this).

a76a03c0d8 Version 1.3.1
- Fixed a lockup in the EPG scanner when no non-primary device was available
  (thanks to Martin Holst for reporting this one).
- Fixed a compiler warning about virtual cConfig::Load() functions (thanks to
  Lauri Tischler for reporting this one).
- Fixed a warning about character comparison in libsi/si.c (thanks to Lauri
  Tischler for reporting this one).
- The new parameter "Update channels" in the "Setup/DVB" menu can be used to
  control if and how channels will be automatically updated (see MANUAL).
  This has already been part of the 'autopid' patch by Andreas Schultz and has
  now been adopted.
- Fixed a crash in case there is no DVB hardware present (thanks to Sascha
  Volkenandt for reporting this one).
- Changed calculation of channel ids to make it work for tv stations that use
  the undefined NID value 0 (thanks to Teemu Rantanen for reporting this one).
- Enhanced the SDT filter to handle multi part sections.
- Added support for selecting preferred EPG languages (based upon a patch by
  Teemu Rantanen).
- Fixed a 'const' in libsi/si.h (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg).
- Fixed the 'su' call in 'runvdr' to make it work on systems that require the
  user name to appear before the command option (thanks to Robert Huitl).
- Fixed testing for matching section filters in case they are turned off (thanks
  to Marcel Wiesweg).
- In case of incomplete sections an error message is now logged only every 10
  seconds.
- Fixed a possible NULL pointer access in cEITScanner::Process() (thanks to
  Andreas Kool).
- The actual transponder data is now taken from the NIT and existing channels
  are adjusted if necessary. If the NIT contains new transponders, they are
  scanned for channels during the next EPG scan. Note that only the satellite
  branches are tested, cable and terrestrial need to be tested by somebody who
  actually has such equipment.

- Changed thread handling to make it work with NPTL ("Native Posix Thread Library").
  Thanks to Jon Burgess, Andreas Schultz, Werner Fink and Stefan Huelswitt.
- The cThread class now accepts a 'Description' parameter, which is used to log
  the beginning and end of the thread, together with its process and thread id.
  For descriptions that need additional parameters you can use the function
  cThread::SetDescription(), which accepts 'printf()' like arguments.
  Existing plugins that use threads should be changed to use this functionality
  instead of explicit 'dsyslog()' calls inside their Action() function in order
  to support logging the thread ids.
- Added "Slovak Link" and "Czech Link" to 'ca.conf' (thanks to Emil Petersky).
  However, 'ca.conf' is now pretty much obsolete due to the automatic CA handling.
- Mutexes are now created with PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK_NP, which makes the
  'lockingTid' stuff obsolete (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt).
- Changed font handling to allow language specific character sets.
- Adopted the small font character set from the "Elchi" patch (originally
  provided by Alessio Sangalli).
- Greek language texts now use iso8859-7 character set (thanks to Dimitrios
  Dimitrakos).
- Rearranged section data handling, so that the actual data handling can be done
  separately, even from within plugins.
- The EPG data structures have been moved from eit.[hc] to epg.[hc] and have been
  adapted to the general VDR coding style. Plugins that use these data structures
  may need to change some function names (which should be obvious).
  The name 'subtitle' has been changed to 'shortText' to avoid clashes with actual
  subtitles that are part of a movie. The name 'extendedDescription' has been
  shortened to 'description'.
- Replaced 'libdtv' with 'libsi' (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg), which is thread
  safe and can be used by multiple section filters simultaneously.
- Added 'cRwLock' to 'thread.[hc]'. Note that all plugin Makefiles need to
  define _GNU_SOURCE for this to work (see the example plugin Makefiles and
  'newplugin').
- Fixed a problem with crc32 in SI handling on 64bit systems (thanks to Pedro
  Miguel Sequeira de Justo Teixeira for reporting this one).
- Fixed an alignment problem in CAM access on 64bit systems  (thanks to Pedro
  Miguel Sequeira de Justo Teixeira for reporting this one).
- Added 'StreamType' setting to CAM communication, which is important for
  Aston/SECA CAMs (thanks to Antonino Sergi).
- Now the CA descriptors are sent to the CAM in the 'program' or 'ES level'
  sections, depending on where they are found in the PMT (thanks to Hans-Peter
  Raschke for reporting this one). This should make SkyCrypt CAMs work.
- Now using the 'version number' of EPG events to avoid unnecessary work.
- Channel data is now automatically derived from the DVB data stream (inspired
  by the 'autopid' patch from Andreas Schultz).
- The current channel is now automatically re-tuned if the PIDs or other settings
  change. If a recording is going on on a channel that has a change in its
  settings, the recording will be stopped and immediately restarted to use the
  new channel settings.
- EPG events now use the complete channel ID with NID, TID and SID.
- Channel names in 'channels.conf' can now have a short form, as provided
  by some tv stations (see man vdr(5)). Currently channels that provide short
  names in addition to long ones are listed in the OSD as "short,long name",
  as in "RTL,RTL Television". The short names will be used explicitly later.
- The Ca parameter in 'channels.conf' has been extended and now contains all the
  CA system ids for the given channel. When switching to a channel VDR now tests
  for a device that provides one of these CA system ids. The devices automatically
  get their supported ids from the CI handler.
- The values in 'ca.conf' are currently without any real meaning. Whether or not
  a channel with conditional access can be received is now determined automatically
  by evaluating its CA descriptors and comparing them to the CA system ids
  provided by the installed CAM. Only the special values 1-16 are used to assign
  a channel to a particular device.
- Increased the maximum number of possible OSD colors to 256.
- Limited the line length in the EPG bugfix report, which appears to fix a buffer
  overflow that caused a crash when cleaning up the EPG data (at 05:00 in the
  morning).
