Version 1.1.32
- Removed a faulty parameter initialization in menu.c (thanks to Lauri Tischler for reporting this one). - Re-implemented the WaitForPut/WaitForGet stuff in cRingBuffer, since some plugins actually need this. By default the buffer does not wait; if a plugin needs the waiting functionality it can call the new SetTimeouts() function. - Moved the call to cPlugin::Start() further up in vdr.c, to make sure it gets called before trying to learn the keys (problem reported by Oliver Endriss). - No longer starting the editing process if no marks have been set (thanks to Matthias Raus for reporting this one). - Added Catalanian language texts (thanks to Marc Rovira Vall and Ramon Roca). 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 16 different OSD languages, so please make sure you have 16 versions for each of your texts. - Moved the detection of a broken video data stream from the cDevice into the cRecorder to avoid problems with cReceivers that want to receive from PIDs that are currently not transmitting (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg for reporting this one). - Fixed setting the locking pid after a timed wait (thanks to Andreas Schultz). - Avoiding spurious section filter settings after a channel switch. - Updated 'channels.conf.cable' (thanks to Stefan Hußfeldt). - Fixed reading 'epg.data' for channels with non-zero RID (thanks to Oliver Endriss for reporting this one). - Fixed EPG bugfix statistics to avoid log entires for undefined channels (thanks to Lars Bläser for reporting this one). - No longer waiting inside cIndexFile::CatchUp() to avoid shortly blocking replay at the end of a recording. |

Version 1.1.27
- The CAM is now accessed only if the current channel actually has a non-zero Ca value, and CAM access is completely suppressed during replay, which avoids problems in case the CAM is attached to the primary DVB device. - The "Left" and "Right" buttons now set the cursor to the first or last list item even if the list consist only of a single page, like, for instance, the Main menu (thanks to Oliver Endriss). - Made the log message "OSD window width must be a multiple of 4..." a debug message instead of an error message, so it can be avoided by using a log level less than 3. - Updated Greek language texts (thanks to Dimitrios Dimitrakos). - Fixed faulty behaviour of the "Mute" key in case the channel display is visible (thanks to Florian Bartels for reporting this one and Sascha Volkenandt for helping to fix it). - Modified LOF handling to allow for C-band reception (thanks to Malcolm Caldwell). - Added some missing cAudio handling calls (thanks to Werner Fink). - Replaced the 'for' loops in StripAudioPackets() with memset() calls (thanks to Werner Fink). - Further increased the timeout until an index file is considerd no longer to be written. - Fixed a crash in case the index file can't be accessed any more during replay (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt for reporting this one). - Fixed displaying messages in the status line in case they exceed the OSD width (thanks to Gerhard Steiner for reporting this one). - Avoiding high CPU load in case the connection to LIRC gets lost (thanks to Ludwig Nussel). - Fixed handling repeat function with LIRC (thanks to Ludwig Nussel). - Fixed handling min/max borders when entering integer values (thanks to Andy Grobb for reporting this one). - Implemented a "resume ID" which allows several users to each have their own resume.vdr files (thanks to Martin Hammerschmid). This parameter can be set in the "Setup/Replay" menu (see MANUAL for details). - Now using 'libdtv' version 0.0.5 (thanks to Rolf Hakenes for the new version and Stefan Huelswitt for adapting VDR to it). - If no device with an MPEG decoder can be found at startup, the first device is now used as primary device (just to have some device). - Adjusted some Premiere channels in 'channels.conf' (thanks to Thomas Koch). - Updated 'channels.conf.cable' (thanks to Stefan Hußfeldt). - The 'epg.data' file is now read after all plugins have been started (thanks to Sascha Volkenandt). - The LIRC remote control no longer tries to learn keys if it can't connect to the LIRC daemon (thanks to Ludwig Nussel for reporting this one). The same applies to the RCU remote control in case of errors during startup. - Fixed handling of Ca parameters with values <= MAXDEVICES, which don't indicate an actual encrypted channel (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt for reporting this one). |

Version 1.1.19
- The character '|' in description texts of EPG records is now interpreted as a newline character (suggested by Gerhard Steiner). - Updated 'channels.conf.cable' (thanks to Andreas Kool). - Improved handling of repeated remote keys. - The RCU now only sets the channel number display when there are no incoming remote control keys, which improves reaction on repeated keys. - The actual tuning is now done in a separate thread, which makes zapping through the channels a lot faster and no longer gets stuck on channels that don't broadcast. This also makes "Motor-DiSEqC" work (thanks to Reinhard Walter Buchner for his help in testing this). Since switching channels now no longer explicitly waits for a channel lock in the foreground thread, the "panic level" mechanism is no longer used (maybe we don't need it any more, anyway). - The keyboard is now by default always active to control VDR. The 'make' option REMOTE=KBD is therefore obsolete. When compiling VDR with REMOTE=RCU or REMOTE=LIRC, the keyboard can thus now be active together with the remote control. If you want to build VDR _without_ keyboard support you can set NO_KBD=1 in the 'make' call. Since the keyboard codes are now different from the ones used previously (which were mapped by the 'ncurses' library) you will need to go through the "Learning keys" procedure again. To do so, either delete the file /video/remote.conf or remove the KBD.* entries from it before starting this version of VDR. (Thanks to Thomas Sailer for pointing out how to set the terminal parameters to read from the keyboard). - The 'ncurses' library is now only necessary when compiling VDR with DEBUG_OSD=1. |

Version 1.1.17
- Added new entries to 'ca.conf'.
- Fixed closing unused PID handles (thanks to Stefan Schluenss for reporting this
one).
- Added more examples to 'diseqc.conf' (thanks to Oliver Endriss).
- Fixed disabling multiple recordings on a single DVB card (comment out the definition
of the macros DO_REC_AND_PLAY_ON_PRIMARY_DEVICE and DO_MULTIPLE_RECORDINGS in
dvbdevice.c).
- Plugins can now have their very own OSD setup in the object they return from
a call to cPlugin::MainMenuAction(). In order to implement this, the return type
of cPlugin::MainMenuAction() had to be changed from (cOsdMenu *) to (cOsdObject *).
So in case you are compiling an existing plugin with this version of VDR and you
get an error message, simply change cOsdMenu to cOsdObject in the plugin's source
for the MainMenuAction() function.
Plugin authors who have so far (ab)used the cControl mechanism to implement their
own raw OSD should take a look at the new demo plugin 'osddemo'. It implements
a very primitive game that shows how a plugin can have its own raw OSD. Especially
look into cLineGame and see how it implements the Show() function. See also
the chapter on "User interaction" in PLUGINS.html.
- Added three new fields to the lines in 'channels.conf': NID, TID and RID. NID and
TID are the Network and Transport Stream IDs, respectively. RID is an additional ID
that can be used to tell apart channels that would otherwise be indistinguishable.
This is typically the case with radio channels, which may have the same NID, TID
and SID, but different "radio IDs". This new field is therefore called RID ("radio
ID"). Currently NID and TID are not yet used by VDR and should always be 0. The
RID is actually used when building the "unique channel ID", so if you have channels
in your 'channels.conf' file that cause error messages when loading, you can set
the RIDs of these channels to different values.
When reading an old 'channels.conf' these new fields will be automatically
initialized to 0 and once the file is written back to disk they will be appended
to the channel definitions.
Thanks to Régis Bossut for pointing out that with some providers the channels can
only be distinguished through the RID.
- The "unique channel ID" now contains an optional 5th part (the RID). See man vdr(5).
- Updated 'channels.conf.cable' and made some channels unique using the new RID
(thanks to Andreas Kool for pointing out the problems).
- Made some channels unique in 'channels.conf.terr' using the new RID.
- Extended the '-l' option to allow logging to LOG_LOCALn (n=0..7) by writing, for
instance, '-l 3.7' (suggested by Jürgen Schmidt).
- Now deleting stale lock files if they have a time stamp that is outside the window
'now +/- LOCKFILESTALETIME'. This improves things in cases where the system time
makes far jumps, so that a lock file might end up with a time stamp that lies
in the distant future (thanks to Oliver Endriss).

Version 1.1.16
- Fixed saving the polarization parameter of channels that have a number in the 'source' parameter (thanks to Peter Seyringer for reporting this one). - Updated 'channels.conf.terr' (thanks to Andy Carter). - Updated 'channels.conf.cable' (thanks to Achim Lange). - First step towards a "unique channel ID". The channel ID is a human readable string, made up from several parameters of the channel's definition in the file 'channels.conf' (see man vdr(5) for details). In order for the "unique channel ID" to work, all channel definitions now must be unique with respect to the combination of their Source, Frequency and SID parameters. You may have to fix your 'channels.conf' manually if there are error messages in the log file when loading it. BE SURE TO MAKE A BACKUP COPY OF YOUR 'channels.conf' AND 'timers.conf' FILE BEFORE SWITCHING TO THIS VERSION, AND CHECK VERY CAREFULLY WHETHER YOUR TIMERS ARE STILL SET TO THE RIGHT CHANNELS! When reading an existing 'timers.conf', the channels will be identified as before by their numbers. As soon as this file is written back, the channel numbers will be replaced by the channel IDs. After that it is possible to manually edit the 'channels.conf' file and rearrange the channels without breaking the timers. Note that you can still define new timers manually by using the channel number. VDR will correctly identify the 'channel' parameter in a timer definition and use it as a channel number or a channel ID, respectively. Also, the SVDRP commands that return timer definitions will list them with channel numbers in order to stay compatible with existing applications. The channel ID is also used in the 'epg.data' file to allow EPG information from different sources to be stored, which would previously have been mixed up in case they were using the same 'service ID'. Note that the contents of an existing 'epg.data' file from a previous version will be silently ignored, since it doesn't contain the new channel IDs. When inserting EPG data into VDR via SVDRP you now also need to use the channel IDs. Currently the EPG data received from the DVB data stream only uses the 'Source' and 'Service ID' part of the channel ID. This makes it work for channels with the same service IDs on different sources (like satellites, cable or terrestrial). However, it doesn't work yet if the service IDs are not unique within a specific source. This will be fixed later. - Added missing SID parameters to 'channels.conf'. Some channels have been removed since they are apparently no longer broadcasted. - Removed dropping EPG events from "other" streams that have a duration of 86400 seconds or more (was introduced in version 1.1.10). This has become obsolete by the modification in version 1.1.13, which fixed fetching the current/next information to handle cases where the duration of an event is set wrongly and would last beyond the start time of the next event. Besides, the change in 1.1.10 broke handling EPG data for NVOD channels. - Fixed a compiler warning regarding cMenuChannels::Del() and MenuTimers::Del() hiding the base class virtual functions. |

Version 1.1.14
- Fixed some faulty default parameter initializations (thanks to Robert Schiele).
- Added further satellites to 'sources.conf' (thanks to Reinhard Walter Buchner
and Oliver Endriss).
- Updated Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Jaakko Hyvätti).
- Fixed a small glitch when switching channels (thanks to Dennis Noordsij for
reporting this one).
- Fixed handling multiple 'CaCaps' entries in 'setup.conf'.
- Group separators in 'channels.conf' may now be given like ':@201 My Channels',
where '@201' indicates the number to be given to the next channel. This can be
used to create 'gaps' in the channel numbering (see 'man 5 vdr'). BE CAREFUL
TO UPDATE YOUR 'timers.conf' ACCORDINGLY IF INSERTING THIS NEW FEATURE INTO YOUR
'channels.conf' FILE!
- Timers now internally have a pointer to their channel (this is necessary to
handle gaps in channel numbers, and in preparation for unique channel ids).
- Fixed slow reaction on SVDRP input (thanks to Guido Fiala for reporting this one).
- Added KI.KA to channels.conf.cable (thanks to Robert Schiele).
- Frequency values for cable and terrestrial channels in 'channels.conf' can
now be given either in MHz, kHz or Hz. The actual value given will be multiplied
by 1000 until it is larger than 1000000.
- Fixed skipping unavailable channels when zapping downwards.
- Fixed checking the Ca() status of a cDevice (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt).
- Fixed switching audio tracks in 'Transfer Mode' on the primary DVB device
(thanks to Steffen Barszus and Stefan Huelswitt for reporting this one and
helping to fix it).
- Fixed channel switching in case of an active 'Transfer Mode' on the primary
device ('Transfer Mode' is now launched with priority '-1').
- Fixed a ternary expression in dvbspu.c.
- Fixed handling 'Transfer Mode' on single device systems when recording an
encrypted channel (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt).
- Fixed blocking replaying in case an encrypted channel is being recorded on
the primary device.
- Now the name of the remote control is displayed when learning the keys.
- Fixed learning remote control keys in case there is more than one remote
control (thanks to Oliver Endriss for reporting this one).
- Implemented additional dedicated keys for "Play", "Pause", "Stop", "Record",
"FastFwd", "FastRew", "Channel+" and "Channel-". If your remote control supports
any of these keys you can delete your 'remote.conf' file and restart VDR to
go through the key learning procedure again in order to assign these new keys.
See MANUAL for more information.
Authors of player plugins should update their ProcessKey() functions so that
the new player keys have the same functionality as the "Up", "Down", "Left",
"Right" and "Blue" keys, respectively. Note that the existing functionality
of these keys should by all means be retained, since VDR (and any plugins)
shall be fully usable with just the basic set of keys. These new keys are only
for additional comfort in case the remote control in use supports them.
- Implemented new keys to directly access the VDR main menu functions "Schedule",
"Channels", "Timers", "Recordings", "Setup" and "Commands". If your remote
control provides keys you want to assign these functions to, you can delete
your 'remote.cof' file and restart VDR to go through the key learning procedure
again in order to assign these new keys. See MANUAL for more information.
- The new configuration file 'keymacros.conf' can be used to assign macros to
the color buttons in normal viewing mode, as well as to up to 9 user defined
keys. See MANUAL and man vdr(5) for more information. The default 'keymacros.conf'
implements the functionality of the "color button patch".
- Fixed a crash when learning the keys of several remote controls and pressing
buttons of those that have already been learned (thanks to Oliver Endriss for
reporting this one).

Version 1.1.13
- Added cDevice::DeviceNumber() to get the number of a device, not counting any gaps that might be in the index count. - Fixed fetching the current/next information to handle cases where the duration of an event is set wrongly and would last beyond the start time of the next event. - Adapted type names to the new HEAD version of the driver (which the previous NEWSTRUCT branch has been merged into). Note that to use this driver version you still need to add NEWSTRUCT=1 to the make call when building VDR. You need a HEAD version of the LinuxDVB driver dated 2002-10-11 or later to compile VDR with NEWSTRUCT=1. - Fixed radio channels in channels.conf.cable (thanks to Robert Schiele and Uwe Scheffler). - Fixed switching the video format in the Setup/DVB menu (thanks to Uwe Scheffler for reporting this one). - Reactivated full handling of second audio PID (even in 'Transfer Mode'). - Fixed a crash when closing down with remote control plugins (thanks to Oliver Endriss helping to debug this one). - Commands in the file 'commands.conf' can now have a '?' at the end of their title, which will result in a confirmation prompt before executing the command. - Changed a few leftover 'new char[...]' to MALLOC(char, ...). - If a command executed from the "Commands" menu doesn't return any output, the OSD will now be closed automatically. - The SVDRP command PUTE now triggers an immediate write of the 'epg.data' file (suggested by Gerhard Steiner). - The new configuration file 'reccmds.conf' can be used to define commands that shall be executed from the "Recordings" menu; see MANUAL and 'man vdr(5)' for details (suggested by Gerhard Steiner). |

Version 1.1.12
- Fixed a missing Flush() call in the remote control learning procedure (thanks to Oliver Endriss). - Modified channel handling to cover all parameters necessary for DVB-C and DVB-T (see man vdr(5) for the meaning of the additional parameters stored in the field previously named 'polarisation'). Thanks to Uwe Scheffler and Andy Carter for testing. If you have a system with different kinds of DVB cards, like DVB-T and DVB-C, for instance, there is no more need to distinguish the channels through the 'Ca' parameter in order to assign them to the various DVB cards. This is now taken care of by the "source" parameter. So a channel marked as "terrestrial", for example, will only be received on DVB-T cards. Note that the cChannel class has been moved into a separate file (channels.[ch]), and that all data members have been made private and are now only accessible through member functions. You may have to change any plugin code that accesses cChannel data accordingly. - The new configuration file 'sources.conf' contains the various signal sources (satellites, cable and terrestrial) which are used in 'channels.conf' and 'diseqc.conf' (thanks to Reinhard Walter Buchner for adding some satellites to 'sources.conf' and Oliver Endriss and Lauri Tischler for testing and debugging). - The 'diseqc' parameter in the channel definitions has been redefined to hold the "source" of the given channel (which can be either a satellite, cable or terrestrial). For compatibility with channels.conf files from older versions, numeric values in this parameter will be tolerated, but they have no meaning. If you want to use DiSEqC you will need to replace these old values with the proper source identifiers defined in the new configuration file 'sources.conf'. See how this is done in the 'channels.conf' file that comes with the VDR package. - The new configuration file 'diseqc.conf' can be used to set up the individual diseqc configuration (see man vdr(5) for a description of the file format). - The "Edit channel" menu has a new entry "Source:" in which the source of this channel can be selected (either a satellite, cable or terrestrial). The set of parameters at the end of this menu will change according to the type of source. - The "Use DiSEqC" parameter in the "Setup/LNB" menu has been moved to the beginning of the list and disables the rest of the parameters when set to "yes", since these are now only meaningful if DiSEqC is _not_ used. - Removed some unnecessary #includes from eit.c and changed cMenuRecordings::Del() to cMenuRecordings::Delete() to avoid warnings in gcc-3.2 (thanks to Andreas Schultz for pointing this out). - Improved skipping channels that are (currently) not available (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt). - Updated channels.conf.terr and channels.conf.cable (thanks to Uwe Scheffler). - Fixed a bug when pressing the "Blue" button in the main menu without having displayed it (thanks to Oliver Endriss for reporting this one). |

Version 1.1.2
- Changed the cPlugin::Start() function to return a boolean value that indicates if the plugin will not be able to perform its task (suggested by Stefan Huelswitt). - Added the cPlugin::Housekeeping() function (suggested by Stefan Huelswitt). - Updated channels.conf.cable (thanks to Uwe Scheffler). - Added 'insert' capabilities to cList (suggested by Stefan Huelswitt). - Changed the 'package' target in the plugin's Makefile to produce a package that expands to a directory with just the plugin name and version number (suggested by Stefan Huelswitt). - Made the config directory available to plugins (suggested by Stefan Huelswitt). See PLUGINS.html, section "Configuration files" for details. - Improved the [eid]syslog() macros, so that the LOG_... macros don't need to be given any more. |

Version 1.1.0
- Begin of the 1.1 development branch. THIS IS NOT A STABLE VERSION! The current stable version for every day use is still the 1.0 branch. - First step towards a universal plugin interface. See the file PLUGINS.html for a detailed description. The man page vdr(1) describes the new options '-L' and '-P' used to load plugins. This first step implements the complete "outer" shell for plugins. The "inner" access to VDR data structures will follow. - The VDR version number is now displayed in the title line of the "Setup" menu. |

Version 0.99pre2
- Fixed setting the OSD size in the 'Confirm' interface call (thanks to
Deti Fliegl).
- Removed the 'read incomplete section...' error message in the EIT processor.
- Fixed channel data for "DW TV" (thanks to Axel Gruber).
- Added DPID to "PREMIERE MOVIE 1" in channels.conf.cable (thanks to Stephan
Schreiber).
- Prepared the OSD functions for multiple overlapping windows.
- Removed the check to see whether the system time is running linearly.
- Improved performance of SVDRP command entry.
- Removed EPGBugfixLevel '3' - after more than a year Pro-7 finally managed to
broadcast the correct timestamps for EPG events between 0:00 and 6:00!
- Fixed failing watchdog timer if program hangs in OSD activities (thanks to
Carsten Koch).
- No longer requiring 'libncurses' if compiling without DEBUG_OSD=1 and
REMOTE=KBD (thanks to Lauri Pesonen).
- The "Recordings" menu now displays a hierarchical structure if there are
subdirectories for the recordings. This can be controlled through the
"RecordingDirs" parameter in the "Setup" menu.
See "MANUAL/Replaying a Recording" for details.
- Improved speed of setting the Help button texts.
- Fixed handling file names that contain single quotes (') or dollar signs ($)
in the call to the shutdown command (option '-s') and the recording command
(option '-r').
- Improved error handling in the editing process; the resulting file will be
deleted if an error occured.
- A message is now prompted at the end of the editing process, indicating
whether the process succeeded or failed.
- Fixed setting the LastActivity timestamp after a shutdown prompt (thanks to
Sergei Haller).
- A message is now prompted if free disk space becomes low during recording.
- The editing process now calls AssertFreeDiskSpace() to remove deleted
recordings if the disk becomes full.
- The "Main" menu now displays in its title the used disk space (in percent)
and the estimated free disk space (in hh:mm), assuming a data rate of 30 MB
per minute.
- Activating the "Recordings" menu now displays "scanning recordings..." to
give the user some feedback in case this takes longer.
- Status messages are now displayed centered.
- Removed the 'Tools' subdirectory from the VDR archive. All contributed tools
can now be found at ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/pub/people/kls/vdr/Tools.

Version 0.97
- Implemented a lock file to prevent more than one instance of VDR from removing
files from the video directory at the same time.
- The new setup parameter SplitEditedFiles can be used to control whether or
not the result of an editing process shall be written into separate files.
- Fixed handling repeat function when using LIRC (thanks to Matthias Weingart).
- The shutdown program (defined with the '-s' option) now also gets the channel
number and recording title of the timer (see INSTALL).
- New channel data for 'Premiere One', 'Premiere X-Action', 'Fox Kids Trkce'
and 'N24' (thanks to Andreas Share, Ulrich Rder, Uwe Scheffler and Simon
Bauschulte). Note that if you are using the default 'channels.conf' or
'channels.conf.cable' files you may need to check any exiting timers to see
whether they still use the correct channel number.
- Fixed the "EPG bugfix" (sometimes had duplicate information in Subtitle and
Extended Description).
- Fixed checking for valid video device when setting the video mode.
- The external command 'sort' is no longer required. VDR now sorts the list of
recordings itself, making sure that recordings that stem from repeating timers
are sorted chronologically. Sorting is done according to the setting of the
current locale, so you may want to make sure LC_COLLATE is set to the desired
value (see INSTALL).
- Fixed handling 'newline' characters in EPG texts (thanks to Rolf Hakenes for
an improved version of his 'libdtv').
Newline characters are always mapped to a single "blank" in VDR, because they
would otherwise disturb the Title and Subtitle layout in the channel display
(where these are assumed to be single line texts) and would have to be
specially handled in the 'epg.data' file and the LSTE command in SVDRP.
- Mapping ` ("backtick") characters in EPG texts to ' (single quote).
- Fixed timers starting and ending at unexpected times. 'localtime()' was not
thread safe, now using localtime_r().
- Removed the "system time seen..." message.
- Fixed a bug in the replay mode display when pressing the Green or Yellow
button while in trick mode (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt)
- Closing all open file descriptors when calling external programs.
- The menu timeout now also works when pressing the "Back" button during replay
to enter the "Recordings" menu.
- Updated 'channels.conf' for the "Bundesliga" channels of Premiere World
(thanks to Helmut Schchner).
- Fixed reading timers.conf and channels.conf that contain blanks after numeric
values.
- Fixed handling trick modes near the beginning and end of a recording.
- Pressing the "Back" button while replaying a DVD now leads to the DVD menu.

Version 0.91
- Fixed displaying colored button texts that are too long. - Suppressing replay progress display when replaying a DVD. - Updated channels.conf.cable (thanks to Uwe Scheffler). - Updated French OSD texts (thanks to Jean-Claude Repetto). - Improved AC3 decoding when replaying DVDs (thanks to Matjaz Thaler). - Fixed handling DVB card indexes when using only one card in a multi-card system. - Changed the 'Eject DVD' button text to a simple 'Eject' (the German text was too long...). - Made the font file generation more stable (thanks to Artur Skawina). - Changed the default value for the "DiSEqC" setup parameter to "off". - The new command line option '-E' can be used to define where the EPG data shall be written to. This is especially useful if VDR runs in a system that turns off the video disk when it is not used, and therefore needs to write the EPG file to a ramdisk (or turn off writing it alltogether). See 'vdr --help' for details. - Making sure the disk is up and running before starting recording (this is important for systems that turn off the video disk when it is not used). - Added the "Jump" function in replay mode (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt). See the description of the "Red" key in MANUAL under "Replay Control" for details. - Fixed displaying editing marks when toggling a mark in "pause" mode. - If there is no free DVB device to record, the log message will now be given only once. - Made I/O more robust by handling EINTR (thanks to Werner Fink). |

Version 0.72
- Fixed SVDRP commands LSTC and LSTT to make them return an error message if no channels or timers are defined. - Enhanced 'channels.conf.cable' (thanks to Hans-Peter Raschke). - Fixed switching to another channel via the EPG while a recording is being replayed. - Fixed a memory leak in the EIT processor that happened when the system time was set. - Removed some redundant code from the cListBase destructor. - Fixed internationalization of some Main menu texts. - Updated 'channels.conf' after the recent changes of Premiere World (thanks to Axel Gruber). - Redesigned the ring buffer to make it work with two separate threads for input and output (also prepared for using a remultiplexer). - Fixed setting system time from transponders. - Fixed a segfault in the Schedule menu in case there is no EPG information. - The 'runvdr' script now kills any leftover vdr threads before restarting it. - Fixed a problem with Daylight Saving Time when displaying the times of recordings. - Added Dutch language texts (thanks to Arnold Niessen). - The new command line option -t can be used to set the controlling terminal (thanks to Jrgen Sauer). This is especially useful when starting VDR through an entry in /etc/inittab (see INSTALL). - Since the CAM module only works if it is installed in the "highest" DVB card, recordings now search for a free DVB card from lowest to highest index (as opposed to the previous "highest to lowest" search) in order to not use the CAM card for FTA recordings unless necessary. This is only important for systems with three or more DVB cards. - Added the "statdvb2vdr" tool from Hans-Peter Raschke. - Fixed a segfault that sometimes happened when killing VDR. - VDR now returns an exit status of '2' in case of an error at startup, instead of terminating with 'abort()' (which caused a core dump). - SVDRP now also works with clients that don't do line buffering (like the Windows 'telnet'). - Empty lines in config files no longer cause error messages. - New SVDRP command LSTE to list the EPG data. - The SVDRP HELP command now prints the topics in several columns. |

Version 0.71
- Fixed 'Transfer Mode' in cases where a non-primary interface was switched to a channel that only the primary interface can receive (which could happen in the EPG scanner). - The EPG scanner now starts with the first channel (it used to start with the second channel). - Reacitvated setting the PNR. - Adapted the frame scanning to the new muxing of the driver. - The new compile time option REMOTE=NONE can be used to compile VDR without any remote control support (for applications where it shall be controlled exclusively via SVDRP). - The new command line option -D can be used to define which DVB interfaces a certain instance of VDR shall use. - The "Left" and "Right" keys are now used to page up and down in lists (thanks to Martin Hammerschmid). Since the "Timers" menu already uses these keys to (de)activate timers, this functionality is not available there. - The "Main" and "Commands" menu now support "hotkeys", which means that if the first non-blank character of a menu item is a digit in the range 1..9, that item can be selected by pressing the respective numeric key on the remote control. - The channel data in 'channels.conf' now contains the teletext PID (thanks to Dave Chapman). Existing files will be read normally (and the teletext PID set to 0), but once they are written back (due to some channel editing) the file will have the new format. - The EPG scanner now scans each transponder only once per cycle. - Deleted recordings are now automatically removed from disk after a while (not only when disk space is being needed for a new recording). - Fixed repeat function in LIRC remote control. - Changed the MAXDVBAPI macro in dvbapi.c to 4 in order to directly support the maximum possible number of DVB cards. - The 'Ca' parameter in the default 'channels.conf' has been changed from '2' to '3' because the VDR prototype now has 3 DVB cards (and currently the CAM module only works if it is inserted into the last DVB card). - The "Now", "Next" and "Schedule" menus now remember the current channel and restore the list when switching between them. - The "Green" button in the "Recordings" menu can now be used to rewind a recording and play it from the very beginning. - Fixed handling ':' in timer filenames and '\n' in timer summaries (see FORMATS). - When removing recordings empty directories are now removed from the video directory. - Added the "schnitt" tools from Matthias Schniedermeyer. - New SVDRP command MESG to display a short message on the OSD. - The Perl script 'svdrpsend.pl' can be used to send SVDRP commands to VDR. - SVDRP can now immediately reuse the same port if VDR is restarted. - SVDRP now has a timeout after which the connection is automatically closed (default is 300 seconds, can be changed in "Setup"). - The compile time switch VFAT can be used to make VDR avoid the ':' character in file names (VFAT can't handle them). Do 'make VFAT=1' to enable this. - Support for DVB-C (thanks to Hans-Peter Raschke and Peter Hofmann). See the INSTALL file for more information about the use of VDR with cable. - Fixed an occasional segfault in the EIT processor. - A value of '0' for the EPGScanTimeout setup parameter now completely turns off scanning for EPG data on both single and multiple card systems. - New setup parameter "PrimaryLimit" that allows to prevent timers from using the primary DVB interface in multi card systems. Default value is 0, which means that every timer may use the primary interface. - The 'active' field of a timer will now be explicitly set to '1' if the user modifies an active timer (see FORMATS for details). - The new command line option -w can be used to activate a watchdog that makes VDR exit in case the main program loop does not respond for more than the given number of seconds. This is mainly useful in combination with the new 'runvdr' script that restarts VDR in case is has exited. |
