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:
- No longer logging an error message in DirSizeMB() if the given directory doesn't
exist. This avoids lots of log entries in case several VDRs use the same video
directory and one of them has already physically removed a recording directory,
while the others still have it in their list of deleted recordings.
- Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto).
- A cCamSlot that has WantsTsData set to true in its constructor now also gets
the CAT and EMM PIDs data.
- Fixed a possible division by zero in frame rate detection.
- VDR now reads command line options from *.conf files in /etc/vdr/conf.d (thanks
to Lars Hanisch). See vdr.1 and vdr.5 for details.
- Fixed a possible crash in the LCARS skin (thanks to Thomas Reufer).
- Updated the dvbhddevice plugin source.
- Fixed a bug in the Makefile when installing plugins with LCLBLD=1 (thanks to
Stefan Huelswitt).
- The pid of the PMT in which the CA descriptors of a given channel are broadcast
is now stored together with the CA descriptors and can be retrieved by calling
GetPmtPid() (this information is only required to receive encrypted channels
with the OctopusNet receiver via the 'satip' plugin).
- Channels that are not listed in the SDT are now only marked as OBSOLETE if
"Setup/DVB/Update channels" is set to a value other than "no" or "PIDs only".
- Fixed multiple OBSOLETE marks in channels that are not listed in the SDT in case
"Setup/Miscellaneous/Show channel names with source" is set to "yes".
- The new function cOsd::DrawScaledBitmap() is now used for drawing subtitles.
This function can be reimplemented by high level OSDs which may be able to do
the scaling in hardware or otherwise more efficiently (thanks to Thomas Reufer).
- Fixed detaching receivers from devices in case a CAM needs to receive the TS
(reported by Dietmar Spingler).
- Fixed resetting the receiver for EMM pids for CAMs that need to receive the TS
(reported by Dietmar Spingler).
- Fixed (well, actually worked around) a problem with subtitles not being displayed
because the broadcaster doesn't set the data's version numbers as required by the
DVB standard (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Fixed support for systemd (thanks to Christopher Reimer).
- Added a missing backslash to the help text of the SVDRP command MOVR (thanks to
Lars Hanisch).
- Added subsystem id support for DVB devices connected via USB (thanks to Jose
Alberto Reguero).
- Added the functions IndexOf(), InsertUnique(), AppendUnique() and RemoveElement()
to the cVector class (thanks to Stefan Schallenberg).
- Fixed a possible out-of-bounds access in cVector::Remove().
- Added functions to set and retrieve the priority of a cReceiver (suggested by
Frank Schmirler).
- Added the new parameters "Setup/Miscellaneous/Volume steps" and
".../Volume linearize" (thanks to Claus Muus). See the MANUAL for details.
- Fixed jumping to an absolute position via the Red key in case replay was paused
(reported by Dieter Ferdinand).
- Changed the German weekday names from "MonDieMitDonFreSamSon" to
"Mo.Di.Mi.Do.Fr.Sa.So." (thanks to Stefan Blochberger).
- Now handling CAT sections that consist of more than one TS packet.
- Added handling for DTS audio tracks to cPatPmtParser::ParsePmt() (thanks to
Thomas Reufer).
- Added support for PGS subtitles (thanks to Thomas Reufer).
- Use of the function cOsd::GetBitmap() outside of derived classes is now deprecated,
and it may be made 'protected' in a future version, since it doesn't work with
TrueColor OSDs. Plugin authors may want to modify their code so that it
works without this function.
- Modified the descriptions of several threads, so that the important information
(like device or frontend numbers) is within the first 15 characters of the
string, because only these are displayed in thread listings. Plugin authors may
want to do the same.
- Added the channel name to log messages that reference a channel (suggested by
Dietmar Spingler).
- Modified the CAM API so that it is possible to implement CAMs that can be freely
assigned to any devices (thanks to Jasmin Jessich).
- Plugins can now implement the function SetMenuSortMode() in their skin objects
derived from cSkinDisplayMenu, to get informed about the currently used sort
mode, if applicable (suggested by Martin Schirrmacher).
- Added cOsdProvider::OsdSizeChanged(), which plugins that implement an output device
can call to signal a change in the OSD that requires a redraw of the currently
displayed object (thanks to Thomas Reufer).
- Added a comment to cRecorder::Activate() about the need to call Detach() in the
destructor (suggested by Eike Sauer).
- Now returning from removing deleted recordings after at most 10 seconds, or if the
user presses a remote control key, to keep the system from getting unresponsive
when removing a huge number of files (reported by Dieter Ferdinand).
- Fixed generating the index file of an existing recording in case at the of a TS file
there is less data in the buffer than needed by the frame detector. In such a case
it was possible that frames were missed, and there was most likely a distortion
when replaying that part of a recording. This is mostly a problem for recordings that
consist of more than one *.ts file. Single file recordings could only lose some
frames at their very end, which probably doesn't matter. At any rate, if you have
generated an index file with VDR version 2.0.6, 2.1.5 or 2.1.6, you may want to
do so again with this version to make sure the index is OK.
- Added the new command line option --updindex, which can be used to update an
incomplete index of a recording (based on a patch from Helmut Auer).

VDR developer version 2.1.6 is now available at
ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-2.1.6.tar.bz2

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:
- Revoked "Fixed some compiler warnings with Clang 3.4.1" from ci.c, because this
did not compile with older versions of gcc (thanks to Sören Moch).
- Fixed keeping the current position in the Recordings menu if a recording was
deleted in a sub folder.
- Fixed handling transfer mode on full featured DVB cards for encrypted channels
that have no audio pid (reported by Christian Winkler).
- Fixed a possible endless loop in cH264Parser::GetGolombUe(), which caused recordings
on some HD channels to get stuck and resulted in buffer overflows.
- Fixed handling PAT packets when detecting frames, so that they can be properly
taken into account when regenerating the index of a recording.
- Fixed adding new source types in case they are already registered (reported by Rolf
Ahrenberg).
- Removed an unnecessary assignment from cMenuRecordings::~cMenuRecordings().
- The Recordings menu now remembers the last recording the cursor was positioned on,
independent of the last replayed recording. When a replay ends, however, the cursor
will initially be positioned to the last replayed recording again when the menu
is opened.
- Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Antti Hartikainen).
- Fixed drawing the live indicator in the LCARS skin in case there are no devices.
- When checking for obsolete channels, those with an RID that is not 0 are now
ignored (suggested by Oliver Endriss).
- The SDT is now only parsed *after* the NIT has been read, and it explicitly uses
the source value derived from the NIT. This should prevent new channels from being
created with the wrong source.
- Added a log message in case a receiver is detached from its device because the
assigned CAM can't decrypt the channel.
- Refactored setup parameter handling for output devices:
+ The function cDevice::GetVideoSystem() has been deprecated and will be removed
in a future version. In order to check whether a particular plugin needs to be
modified if this function is removed, you can comment out the line
#define DEPRECATED_VIDEOSYSTEM
in device.h.
+ Handling the "video (display) format" (things like 16:9, 4:3, pan&scan, letterbox
etc) shall now be done by the individual output devices, because the types and
numbers of parameters are too device specific. The Setup/DVB parameters
"Video format" and "Video display format" are still there for now and can be used
by SD devices. HD devices, however, shall not use these parameters (any more),
but rather implement their own setup menu with the necessary parameters for
controlling output.
+ The dvbhdffdevice plugin has been modified accordingly.
+ Made it clear that cDevice::SetDigitalAudioDevice() merely tells the output device
that the current audio track is Dolby Digital. This function was only used by the
original "full featured" DVB cards - do not use it for new developments!
If an output device has several ways of replaying audio (like HDMI or analog jack)
it shall implement the proper options in its plugin's SetupMenu() function.
- Added support for "Pilot", "T2-System-Id" and "SISO/MISO" parameters (thanks to
Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Now initializing the isOnVideoDirectoryFileSystem member of cRecording when
scanning the video directory, so that it won't cause a delay when opening the menu
on a system with a large number of recordings.
- Now resetting the isOnVideoDirectoryFileSystem member of a cRecording to -1 after
renaming it, so that it will be re-checked upon the next call to
IsOnVideoDirectoryFileSystem().
- Added support for systemd (thanks to Christopher Reimer). To activate this you
need to add "SDNOTIFY=1" to the 'make' call.

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 'sources.conf' (thanks to Antti Hartikainen).
- cFont::CreateFont() now returns a dummy font in case there are no fonts installed.
This prevents a crash with the LCARS skin on a system that has no fonts.
- Improved locking for CAM slots and made the pure functions of cCiAdapter have
default implementations, to fix a possible crash with CI adapters and CAM slots
that are implemented in a plugin.
- Added logging the supported system ids of a CAM.
- Increased MIN_TS_PACKETS_FOR_FRAME_DETECTOR to 10 in order to be able to record
channels that need more than 5 TS packets for detecting frame borders (reported by
Eike Sauer).
- Fixed deleting the source recording after moving it to a different volume (reported
by Christoph Haubrich).
- Now waiting explicitly until all CAM slots are ready before switching to the
initial channel when VDR is started. This is necessary in case CI adapters are
used that are not physically connected to a dedicated device. The respective checks
in cDvbDevice have been removed to avoid redundancy.
- Fixed detecting frame borders in MPEG-2 streams that have "bottom fields" or varying
GOP structures (reported by Christian Paulick, with help from Helmut Auer).
- Now unassigning CAMs from their devices when they are no longer used.
- Now making sure the primary device goes into transfer mode for live viewing if the
CAM wants to receive the TS data.
- Fixed a wrong alignment in cCiDateTime::SendDateTime().
- Since the new cRecordingsHandler that was introduced in version 2.1.2 not only
handles "cutting", but also "moving" and "copying" recordings, the German word
"Schnitt" has been replaced with the more generic "Bearbeitung", which covers all
three variations of "editing" a recording (suggested by Christoph Haubrich).
Maintainers of translations for other languages may want to change their *.po files
accordingly.
- The new function cStatus::ChannelChange() can be implemented by plugins to be
informed about changes to the parameters of a channel that may require a retune.
This may, for instance, be useful for plugins that implement live streaming, so that
they can react on changes to a channel's PIDs or CA descriptors (problem reported
by Mariusz Bialonczyk).
- Fixed a superfluous call to the skin's SetRecording() function after renaming a
recording (reported by Christoph Haubrich).

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.
Originally I intended to release this version only after the new DiSEqC
configuration dialog was finished. But in the meantime quite a few other things
have come up, so I decided to postpone that dialog and first release what has
piled up so far.
From the HISTORY file:
- Changed the return value of cPositioner::HorizonLongitude() to 0 in case the
latitude of the antenna location is beyond +/-81 degrees.
- Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Fixed some compiler warnings with gcc-4.6.3 (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Changed the name of the SVDRP command RENR to MOVR (suggested by Rolf Ahrenberg).
- When cutting a recording it is now checked whether there is already an edited
version of this recording (with the same name, but starting with '%'), and the
user is prompted for confirmation to overwrite it (suggested by Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Revoked "Added maximum signal strength value for TechniSat SkyStar 2 DVB-S rev 2.3P"
because it broke things for the "TechniSat AirStar 2" DVB-T card.
- The LIRC remote control now connects to the socket even if it doesn't yet exist when
VDR is started (thanks to Lars Hanisch).
- Changed the absolute latitude limit for visible satellites to 81.2 degrees.
- Added code for parsing LCN and AVC descriptors to libsi (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- In the "Select folder" menu pressing Ok now selects the folder, even if this is a
folder that contains sub folders (marked with "..."). To open such a folder you
can press the Red key.
- Fixed a possible access to uninitialized data in cEIT::cEIT() (reported by Dominik
Strasser).
- The new menu category mcRecordingEdit is now used to mark menus that edit recording
properties (suggested by Stefan Braun).
- Changes in the teletext PID no longer cause retuning (and thus interrupting a
recording).
- Removed '_' from the FileNameChars and CharMap translations in uk_UA.po.
- Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto).
- Fixed a missing initialization in the c'tor of cSkinLCARSDisplayChannel (thanks to
Marko Mäkelä).
- Simplified some conditional expressions in skinlcars.c and skinsttng.c (suggested
by Marko Mäkelä).
- Fixed uninitialized item area coordinates in cSkinLCARSDisplayMenu (reported by
Marko Mäkelä).
- Fixed a possible crash if the recordings list is updated externally while the
Recordings menu is open (reported by Lars Hanisch).
- Added a missing closing ')' in the help and man page entry of the --vfat option
(reported by Lars Hanisch).
- Fixed setting the name of the video directory to avoid a crash when using --genindex,
and also to use the correct directory with --edit (the latter reported by Marko
Mäkelä).
- The Recordings menu can now be called with a cRecordingFilter, which allows the
caller to have it display only a certain subset of the recordings (thanks to Lars
Hanisch).
- Added handling UTF-8 'umlaut' characters to cKbdRemote (thanks to Lars Hanisch).
- Made it clear that the Data parameter in cDevice::StillPicture() may point to a
series of packets, not just a single one (thanks to Thomas Reufer).
- cDevice::TrickSpeed() now has an additional parameter named Forward, which indicates
the direction in which replay is being done (suggested by Thomas Reufer). This
information may be necessary for some output devices in order to properly implement
trick modes. Authors of plugins that implement output devices will need to add this
parameter to their derived cDevice class, regardless of whether they will make use
of it or not.
- Added a note to ePlayMode in device.h that VDR itself always uses pmAudioVideo when
replaying a recording (suggested by Thomas Reufer).
- Fixed some spellings in positioner.h and Doxyfile (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- Changed '%a' to the POSIX compliant '%m' in all scanf() calls (thanks to Ville
Skyttä).
- The new function cCamSlot::Decrypt() can be used by derived classes to implement a
CAM slot that can be freely assigned to any device, without being directly inserted
into the full TS data stream in hardware. A derived class that implements Decrypt()
will also need to set the new parameter ReceiveCaPids in the call to the cCamSlot
base class constructor to true, in order to receive the CA pid TS packets that
contain data necessary for decrypting.
- Many member functions of cCamSlot have been made virtual to allow for easier
implementation of derived classes.
- cTSBuffer now provides the number of available bytes in its Get() function.
- cDvbDevice::GetTSPacket() now calls CamSlot()->Decrypt() in order to allow CAM slots
that can be freely assigned to any device access to the TS data stream.
- Added a check to avoid a possible NULL pointer dereference in cCiSession::SendData()
(reported by Ville Skyttä).
- Deleted a superfluous assignment in cPipe::Open() (reported by Ville Skyttä).
- The script given to VDR with the '-r' option is now also called after the recording
process has actually started (thanks to Christian Kaiser).
- Avoiding unnecessary pkg-config warnings in plugin Makefiles (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
Plugin authors may want to apply the following change to their Makefile:
-PKGCFG = $(if $(VDRDIR),$(shell pkg-config --variable=$(1) $(VDRDIR)/vdr.pc),$(shell pkg-config --variable=$(1) vdr || pkg-config --variable=$(1) ../../../vdr.pc))
+PKGCFG = $(if $(VDRDIR),$(shell pkg-config --variable=$(1) $(VDRDIR)/vdr.pc),$(shell PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:../../.." pkg-config --variable=$(1) vdr))
- Eliminated MAXDVBDEVICES (suggested by Oliver Endriss).
- Channels that are no longer contained in the current SDT of a transponder are now
marked with the keyword OBSOLETE in their name and provider fields. That way you can
identify obsolete channels when you switch to them, and you can get the complete
overview of all obsolete channels by sorting the Channels list by provider (by
pressing the 0 key twice). Automatic deletion of obsolete channels may follow later.

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).

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.
IMPORTANT:
==========
This version of VDR no longer sets LC_NUMERIC to "C" in order to make
sure any floating point numbers written to configuration files use a
proper decimal point. It rather explicitly converts such numbers using the
new functions atod() and dtoa().
IF YOU USE PLUGINS THAT STORE FLOATING POINT NUMBERS IN THEIR OWN CONFIGURATION
FILES, YOU SHOULD SET
export LC_NUMERIC=C
BEFORE RUNNING VDR, UNTIL THESE PLUGINS HAVE BEEN PROPERLY UPDATED.
From the HISTORY file:
- In order to be able to play TS recordings from other sources, in which there is
more than one PMT PID in the PAT, 'int cPatPmtParser::PatPmt(void)' has been changed
to 'bool cPatPmtParser::IsPatPmt(int Pid)'.
- Fixed learning remote control keys with the LCARS skin.
- Updated the Macedonian OSD texts (thanks to Dimitar Petrovski).
- Fixed getting only non-video packets in cCuttingThread::GetPendingPackets() (reported
by Sören Moch).
- Changed all occurrences of MPEG4 to H264 (pointed out by Sören Moch).
- Fixed getting the number of editing sequences in case the last sequence has no actual
end mark.
- The cutter now only increments the TS continuity counter for packets that have a
payload (pointed out by Sören Moch).
- Fixed adjusting the DTS values in the cutter, to compensate for dropped B-frames
(pointed out by Sören Moch).
- Fixed a typo in skins.h (thanks to Lars Hanisch).
- Simplified calculating the PTS offset in cPtsFixer::Fix() and fixed the overflow
handling of PCR values (thanks to Sören Moch).
- Fixed calling iconv_close() only with a valid iconv_t value (thanks to Juergen Lock).
- Fixed faulty opening of the Recordings menu when pressing the Play key during normal
live viewing mode in case there is a "last viewed" recording.
- Fixed some #include statements in plugins to use <vdr/...> instead of "vdr/..."
(thanks to Lars Hanisch).
- Fixed some spellings in osd.h and svdrp.c (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- Fixed handling lowercase polarization characters in channel definitions if no DiSEqC
is used (reported by Mike Hay, actual bug pointed out by Stefan Huelswitt).
- Synchronizing system time to the transponder time is now done using adjtime() in order
to avoid discontinuities (suggested by Manuel Reimer). If the time difference is more
than 10 seconds, stime() is still used to do the initial sync.
- The '7' and '9' keys now jump to the very beginning or end, respectively, of the
recording, even if there is no mark set at that point (following a request from
Andre Weidemann).
- Now always setting the TDT EIT filter, because otherwise when turning on using the
transponder time in the Setup menu, it would only be used after the next restart
of VDR (thanks to Sundararaj Reel).
- The new functions cDevice::CanScaleVideo() and cDevice::ScaleVideo() can be used by
derived output devices to implement scaling the video to a given size and location
(based on a suggestion by Lucian Muresan).
- The SVDRP command HITK now discards any keys if the remote control is currently
turned off (thanks to Alexander Hans).
- The new remote control key "Play/Pause" can be used with remote controls that don't
have separate keys for "Play" and "Pause", but rather have a single key for both
functions (thanks to Stefan Hofmann for suggesting to implement support for such
remote controls).
- The new option "Setup/Replay/Pause on mark set" can be used to activate automatically
going into Pause mode if an editing mark is set during replay (suggested by Andre
Weidemann).
- When regenerating the index of a recording, the frame rate stored in the info file
is now automatically fixed if it differs from the value detected by the frame
detector.
- Fixed creating the edited version directory if a relative file name is given in
the call to 'vdr --edit' (the '/video' part was stripped from the given file name
even if it wasn't there).
- The new option "Setup/Replay/Progress display time" can be used to activate
automatically displaying the progress display whenever replay of a recording is
started (suggested by Stefan Blochberger).
- Changed reading and writing of floating point numbers into configuration files to
make it independent of the decimal point used in the current locale. All calls to
atof() have been replaced with the new function atod(), which makes sure the string
representation of a floating point number using a '.' as decimal point will be
handled correctly, even if the locale in use expects a ',' as the decimal point.
Plugins that read floating point numbers from their own configuration files will
also need to use atod() for this, or use a method of their own (this is not necessary
if values are stored in VDR's setup.conf file, because VDR takes care of this).
The reason for these changes is that floating point numbers presented to the user
shall be displayed in the way defined by the current locale (suggested by Stefan
Blochberger).
If you use plugins that store floating point values in configuration files of their
own and have not yet been adapted to this change, you should set
export LC_NUMERIC=C
before running VDR. Otherwise your plugin's configuration data may not be read or
written correctly.
- The new functions SetItemEvent(), SetItemTimer(), SetItemChannel() and
SetItemRecording() of the cSkinDisplayMenu class can be reimplemented by skin
plugins to display these items in a more elaborate way than just a simple line of
text.

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.
The main focus of this version is on an improved frame detection code,
and improvements to the cutting process. When cutting a recording, VDR
now removes any "dangling" TS packets from the beginning of an editing
sequence and pulls in any "pending" TS packets at the end of a sequence.
It also fixes all timestamps and continuity counters.
However, while the results look much better now in, for instance, Kaffeine,
the TT S2-6400 still shows some video artifacts at the editing points, and
the Mac video player sometimes totally chokes on edited material.
I did spend a lot of time trying to find out what could still be wrong here,
but couldn't come up with any new ideas. So I think it's now time to invite
others to test this new cutting code, read the source code and try to find
out what's still going wrong here. Maybe (hopefully ;-) it's just some stupid
little error... ;-)
From the HISTORY file:
- Pressing the Play key during normal live viewing mode now opens the Recordings menu
if there is no "last viewed" recording (thanks to Alexander Wenzel).
The same behavior has been implemented for the Blue key in the main menu.
- cIoThrottle::Engaged() is now also checked in cRemoveDeletedRecordingsThread::Action(),
to suspend removing deleted recordings in case this is necessary to make room for
new, ongoing recordings (suggested by Udo Richter).
- The cThread constructor now has an additional boolean parameter that can be set to
true to have this thread run at a lower priority. Plugin authors that use low
priority threads may want to use this instead of the calls to SetPriority(19) and
SetIOPriority(7). The priority of a thread ("low" or "high") is now logged when the
thread starts.
- Changed DTV_DVBT2_PLP_ID to DTV_STREAM_ID in dvbdevice.c to adapt to an incompatible
change in DVB API 5.8 (reported by Derek Kelly).
Removed the meanwhile obsolete definition of FE_CAN_TURBO_FEC.
- Fixed some compiler warnings under gcc version 4.7.1.
- Fixed setting the video format in the dvbhdffdevice (thanks to Torsten Lang).
- Fixed 'make install' to not overwrite existing configuration files (thanks to Peter
Münster).
- Added including the Make.global and Make.config files to the dvbdhffdevice's
libhdffcmd/Makefile.
- Added options to build a 32-bit version of VDR on a 64-bit machine to
Make.config.template.
- Fixed handling VPS timers in case the running status of an event goes to '1' (not
running) and later goes to '4' (running).
- If a frame position in the 'marks' file of a recording doesn't point to an I-frame,
it will now be shifted towards the next I-frame, either up or down, whichever is
closer (suggested by Udo Richter).
- Fixed a possible memory leak in SI::StructureLoop::getNextAsPointer() (reported by
Sundararaj Reel).
- Fixed handling timers in case an event is modified and "phased out" while the timer
is recording.
- Improved frame detection by parsing just far enough into the MPEG-4 NAL units to get
the necessary information about frames and slices.
- The initial syncing of the frame detector is now done immediately after the first
complete GOP has been seen. This makes recordings and especially pausing live video
start up to twice as fast as before.
- Updated the Romanian OSD texts (thanks to Lucian Muresan).
- Fixed handling the very last entry in a recording index.
- The return type of cMarks::Add() has been changed to void, since due to the sorting
of the list of marks the returned pointer might have pointed to a totally different
mark. Besides, the return value was never actually used.
- Improved editing TS recordings by
+ stripping dangling TS packets from the beginning of a sequence
+ including pending TS packets at the end of a sequence
+ fixing all timestamps and continuity counters
+ generating editing marks for the edited version in such a way that each cutting
point is marked by an "end" and "begin" mark with the same offset
+ no longer generating an editing mark at the "end" of the edited recording (this
was actually generated at the beginning of the last GOP, so that a subsequent
edit would have cut off the last GOP)
+ no longer generating any editing marks if the edited recording results on just
one single sequence
+ ignoring pairs of editing marks that are placed at exactly the same position of
a recording when actually cutting the recording
+ not doing anything if the editing marks in place would result in the edited
version being the same as the original recording
- Editing marks can now be placed directly on top of each other, in which case they
simply mark a position, but have no effect on the actual cutting process.
- When positioned at an offset where two (or more) editing marks are placed on top
of each other, the '4' key moves the first one of them to the left, while the '6'
key moves the last one of them to the right. The '7' and '9' key handle multiple
marks at the same place as if it were one single mark.
- Modified editing marks are now written to disk whenever the replay progress display
gets hidden (thanks to Christoph Haubrich).

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:
- Fixed scaling subtitles in case the primary device's GetVideoSize() function doesn't
return actual values (thanks to Luca Olivetti).
- The DiSEqC codes are now copied in the call to cDiseqc::Execute().
- VDR now supports "Satellite Channel Routing" (SCR) according to EN50494 (based on
the "unicable" patch from Lars Hanisch).
Since "Unicable" is a registered trademark and stands for only one of many
implementations of SCR, the following changes have been made compared to the patch,
which need to be taken into account by people who have set up their system using
the patch:
- The 'U' parameter in the diseqc.conf file has been changed to 'S' ("Scr").
- The configuration file name has been changed from "unicable.conf" to "scr.conf".
- Updated sources.conf (thanks to Arthur Konovalov).
- The SVDRP command LSTC now also accepts channel IDs (thanks to Dominic Evans).
- Fixed handling DVB subtitles and implemented decoding textual DVB subtitles (thanks
to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Added cap_net_raw to the capabilities that are not dropped (thanks to Dominic Evans).
- Fixed setting the start time of an edited recording (thanks to Christoph Haubrich).
- Temporarily switching free devices to transponders in order to have their running
status updated is now done by marking the devices as "occupied" for a certain
amount of time.
- The new setup options "LNB/Device n connected to sat cable" can be used to define
which DVB-S devices are connected to the same sat cable and are therefore "bonded".
This obsoletes the LNBSHARE patch. Users of the LNBSHARE patch will need to newly
set up their sat devices with the above options.
- Fixed a crash when deleting a recording while cutting it (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- Fixed several spelling errors (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- The new SVDRP command UPDR can be used to trigger an update of the list of
recordings (thanks to Lars Hanisch).
- Added generating a pkg-config file to the Makefile (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- Removed the '.pl' suffix from all scripts (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- Changed the default location for the LIRC socket to /var/run/lirc/lircd (thanks
to Ville Skyttä).
- Added file name and line number to LOG_ERROR_STR() (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Replaced all calls to sleep() with cCondWait::SleepMs() (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Fixed a crash with malformed SI data (patch from vdr-portal).

Version 1.7.18
- Changed -O2 to -O3 in Make.config.template (reported by Matti Lehtimäki). - Added a missing 'default' case in cPixmapMemory::DrawEllipse(). - Fixed some direct comparisons of double values. - Fixed detecting frames on channels that broadcast with separate "fields" instead of complete frames. - Made updating the editing marks during replay react faster in case the marks file has just been written (with a patch from Udo Richter). - Fixed horizontal scaling of subtitles (reported by Reinhard Nissl). - Stripped the note "The data returned by this function is only used for informational purposes (if any)" from the description of cDevice::GetVideoSize(). The VideoAspect is now used to properly scale subtitles. - Fixed cUnbufferedFile::Seek() in case it is compiled without USE_FADVISE (thanks to Juergen Lock). - Fixed the Language header of the Serbian translation file (thanks to Ville Skyttä). - Added anti-aliasing when upscaling bitmaps, which improves the display of SD subtitles when replayed on an HD OSD (thanks to Reinhard Nissl for his help in debugging). - Renamed cBitmap::Scale() to Scaled(), because it doesn't modify the bitmap itself, but rather returns a scaled copy. - Fixed the description of cReceiver in PLUGINS.html, regarding detaching a receiver from its device before deleting it (reported by Winfried Köhler). This change in behavior was introduced in version 1.5.7. - Fixed scaling subtitles in case the OSD size is exactly the same as the display size of the subtitles. - Added a missing initialization to sDvbSpuRect (reported by Sergiu Dotenco). - Replaced "%lld" and "%llX" print format specifiers with "PRId64" and "PRIX64" to avoid compiler warnings with gcc 4.5.2 (thanks to Sergiu Dotenco). On a personal note: I find it a step in the totally wrong direction that there have been macros introduced to work around this problem in the first place. There should have been "real" format specifiers defined that address this. These macros are nothing but an ugly workaround. - Added Cancel(3) to ~cTrueColorDemo() in the "osddemo" plugin (thanks to Reinhard Nissl). - Added a missing font deletion in cTrueColorDemo::Action() in the "osddemo" plugin (thanks to Reinhard Nissl). - Fixed a buffer overflow in cFont::Bidi() (thanks to Reinhard Nissl). - Added HD stream content identifiers to vdr.5 (thanks to Christoph Haubrich). - Made cRecordingInfo::Read(FILE *f) private to avoid calls to it from outside cRecordingInfo or cRecording (reported by Mika Laitio). - The dvbhddevice plugin is now part of the VDR distribution archive (thanks to Andreas Regel). - Removed an obsolete local variable in dvbsdffosd.c (thanks to Paul Menzel). - Fixed a possible NULL pointer dereference in osddemo.c (reported by Paul Menzel). - Now using pkg-config to get fribidi, freetype and fontconfig cflags and libs (thanks to Ville Skyttä). - The Makefile now also installs the include files (thanks to Ville Skyttä). - Added handling of "ANSI/SCTE 57" descriptors (thanks too Rolf Ahrenberg). - Avoiding an unecessary call to Recordings.ResetResume() (thanks to Reinhard Nissl). |
