DEADLINE FOR SUBMITTING TRANSLATIONS IS WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 18!
From the HISTORY file:
- Fixed a memory leak in case of broken Extended Event Descriptors (thanks to Lars
Hanisch).
- Fixed the German translation of "Binary skip timeout (s)" (thanks to Matthias
Senzel).
- Fixed the German translation of "VDR will shut down later - press Power to force".
- Fixed the Finnish translation of "Binary skip timeout (s)" (thanks to Rolf
Ahrenberg).
- Updated the Lithuanian OSD texts (thanks to Valdemaras Pipiras).
- Added SDNOTIFY to Make.config.template (suggested by Christian Richter). Also
added NO_KBD and BIDI.
- Added code from the "jumpplay" patch that makes the recording still be considered
unviewed when stopping replay within RESUMEBACKUP seconds of the first mark.
- The new option "Setup/Replay/Alternate behavior for adaptive skipping" can be used
to make adaptive skipping only halve the skip distance when the direction changes.
That way you can reach the desired point in a recording even if you make one too
many skips in a certain direction (see MANUAL for details).
- Fixed cCamSlot::Assign(), so that it actually ignores the value of Query if Device
is NULL (as described in the header file).
- Added a missing VDRDIR="$(CWD)" to the clean-plugins target of the Makefile, to
avoid error messages regarding the missing vdr.pc file.
- Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov).
- Updated the Ukrainian OSD texts (thanks to Yarema Aka Knedlyk).
- Updated the Romanian OSD texts (thanks to Lucian Muresan).
- Updated the Hungarian OSD texts (thanks to István Füley).
- Fixed switching channels in the Schedule menu after going through various Now and
Schedule menus for different channels (reported by Matthias Senzel).
- Fixed setting the Blue button in the Schedule/Now/Next menus, so that it only shows
"Switch" if the selected event is on a different channel.
- Added "NORDIG" to the list of "DVB/Standard compliance" options and using it to
restrict the LCN (Logical Channel Numbers) parsing to networks that actually use
this non-standard feature (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- In the "Edit recording" menu the '0' key can now be used on the "Name:" field to
remove the name of the recording and replace it with the last element of the
recording's folder path name (suggested by Christoph Haubrich). See MANUAL, section
"Managing folders" for details.
- Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Nino Gerbino).
- The "Select folder" menu now adds the folder names of all existing recordings to
any names that have been predefined in "folders.conf" (suggested by Sören Moch).
- Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto).
- Fixed the German translations of "latitude" and "longitude" (they were swapped).
- Updated the Hungarian OSD texts (thanks to Mario Fenneis).
- Modified runvdr.template to improve compatibility with the "bash" and "dash" shells.
- Changed the German translations if the texts related to "binary skipping" (based
on a suggestion by Thomas Reufer).
- Updated sources.conf to reflect the fact that Astra 4A and SES5 are actually in
two separate positions (thanks to Arthur Konovalov).
- Fixed cMarks::GetNextBegin() and cMarks::GetNextEnd() (thanks to Stefan Herdler).
The behavior of these two functions is now exacly as described in the header file.
Editing marks that are placed at exactly the same offset in a recording are now
preserved in the cutting process.
- Changed the naming of "binary skip mode" to "adaptive skip mode" (suggested by
Rolf Ahrenberg and Derek Kelly).
- cDvbPlayer and cReplayControl now use the same list of editing marks. This avoids
inconsistent behavior with the "Skip edited parts" or "Pause replay at last mark"
functions when the editing marks are manipulated during replay.
- Fixed setting an empty recording name or folder to a blank in the "Edit recording"
menu (reported by Christoph Haubrich).
- Added a confirmation before renaming a recording to its folder name (suggested
by Christoph Haubrich).
- Modified EntriesOnSameFileSystem(), so that it returns 'true' if either of the given
files doesn't exist (to avoid any actions that might be triggered if files are on
different file system), and changed handling the 'error' variable in cDirCopier, so
that it is initialized to 'true' and will only be set to 'false' if the entire
copy process has been successful (problem reported by Christoph Haubrich).
- Added the UPDATE-2.2.0 file.

WARNING:
========
This is a *developer* version. Even though *I* use it in my productive
environment, I strongly recommend that you only use it under controlled
conditions and for testing and debugging.
From the HISTORY file:
- Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto).
- Fixed "warning: invalid suffix on literal" with GCC 4.8 and C++11 (thanks to Joerg
Bornkessel).
- Fixed the link to "svdrpsend (1)" in the vdr.1 man page (thanks to Chris Mayo).
- Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Updated the Romanian OSD texts (thanks to Lucian Muresan).
- Added functionality based on the "jumpplay" patch from Torsten Kunkel and Thomas
Günther:
+ The new option "Setup/Replay/Pause replay when jumping to a mark" can be used to
turn off pausing replay when jumping to an editing mark with the '9' key.
+ The new option "Setup/Replay/Skip edited parts" can be used to automatically skip
the edited parts of a recording during replay, without the need to actually cut
the recording.
+ The new option "Setup/Replay/Pause replay at last mark" can be used to make replay
go into Pause mode when it has reached the last "end" mark.
+ The '8' key for testing an edited sequence now also jumps to the next *end*
mark if "Setup/Replay/Skip edited parts" is active. This allows for testing edits
in recordings that have actually been cut, as well as recordings that have not
been cut, in case "Skip edited parts" is enabled.
- Added support for "Satellite Channel Routing" (SCR) according to EN50607, also
known as "JESS" (thanks to Manfred Völkel and Frank Neumann).
- The keys '1' and '3' can now be used in replay mode to position an editing mark
in "binary" mode (based on a patch from Rolf Ahrenberg, with modifications by Helmut
Auer). See MANUAL, section "Editing a Recording".
- The Yellow button in the "Setup/CAM" menu can now be used to put the selected
CAM into a mode where it remains assigned to a device that is tuned to the current
channel until the smart card it contains is activated and the CAM thus starts to
descramble (see MANUAL, section "Setup/CAM" for details).
- Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov).
- Added ARGSDIR to the ONEDIR section of Make.config.template (suggested by Derek
Kelly).
- Made cRecording::GetResume() public (suggested by Stefan Braun).
- Fixed setting the read index in cDvbPlayer::Goto() in case Still is false.
- The function cDvbPlayer::Goto() now automatically calls Play() if Still is false.
- Added support for LCN (Logical Channel Numbers), which plugins may use to sort
channels (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).

Version 2.1.1
VDR developer version 2.1.1 is now available at
ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-2.1.1.tar.bz2
A 'diff' against the previous version is available at

8b8ca593885c380cd370e6d19a5b16a1 vdr-2.0.0-2.1.1.diff
WARNING:
========
This is a *developer* version. Even though *I* use it in my productive
environment, I strongly recommend that you only use it under controlled
conditions and for testing and debugging.
The main focus of this version is on adding basic support for positioners
to control steerable satellite dishes. Manually controlling the dish position
and storing individual positions will follow later.
The fixes contained in this version will be released in a stable version 2.0.3
later, if there are no problems.
From the HISTORY file:
- Fixed initializing cDevice::keepTracks.
- Fixed an endless loop in cTextWrapper::Set() in case the given Width is smaller than
one character (reported by Stefan Braun).
- Removed all "modified since version 1.6" markers from PLUGINS.html.
- Added definitions for older DVB API versions, back until 5.0 (based on a patch from
Udo Richter).
- Changed cThread::SetIOPriority() from "best effort class" to "idle class" in order to
improve overall performance when an editing process is running (thanks to Jochen
Dolze).
- Fixed handling '/' and '~' in recording file names in case DirectoryEncoding is
used (thanks to Lars Hanisch).
- Changed the sign of the satellite position value in cSource to reflect the standard
of western values being negative. The new member function cSource::Position() can be
used to retrieve the orbital position of a satellite.
- Fixed multiple occurrences of the same directory in the recordings list in case there
are directories that only differ in non-alphanumeric characters (was broken by
"Fixed selecting the last replayed recording in the Recordings menu in case there
are folders and plain recordings with names that differ only in non-alphanumeric
characters" in version 1.7.36).
- Fixed displaying the frame number when setting an editing mark (thanks to Thomas
Günther).
- Fixed no longer generating any editing marks if the edited recording results in just
one single sequence (reported by Halim Sahin).
- Fixed an error message when parsing SCR values in diseqc.conf.
- Fixed an unexpected RCS version tag in the newplugin script.
- Fixed an endless loop in the DrawEllipse() functions for very small ellipses (reported
by Stefan Braun).
- Fixed a crash in the LCARS skin's main menu in case there is no current channel
(reported by Dominique Dumont).
- Added basic support for positioners to control steerable satellite dishes (based on
a patch from Seppo Ingalsuo and Ales Jurik).
+ Supports GotoN (aka "DiSEqC 1.2") and GotoX (aka "USALS").
+ The new DiSEqC command code 'P' can be used to instruct a positioner to move the
dish to the required satellite position. When a 'P' code is processed, further
execution of the remaining DiSEqC sequence (if any) is postponed until the positioner
has reached the new satellite position.
+ The new special source value of "S360E" can be used in diseqc.conf to indicate that
an entry using a positioner can move the dish to any requested position within its
range. Think of it as "full circle".
+ The devices a particular cDiseqc or cScr applies to are now stored directly in each
cDiseqc or cScr, respectively.
+ A plugin can implement a custom positioner control (see PLUGINS.html, section "Positioners").
+ The new function cSkinDisplayChannel::SetPositioner() can be implemented by skins to
show the user a progress display when the dish is being moved. The default implementation
calls SetMessage() with a string indicating the new position the dish is being moved to.
The LCARS skin shows a progress bar indicating the movement of the dish.
+ The new parameters "Site latitude", "Site longitude", "Positioner speed", and
"Positioner swing" in the "Setup/LNB" menu can be used to configure the necessary
values for a steerable dish.
+ The cDvbTuner now has a new status tsPositioning, in which it waits until a steerable
dish has reached its target position. Parsing SI data is paused until the target
position has been reached.
- The LCARS skin now shows the source value of the current channel in its channel display.
- Fixed asserting free disk space in the cutter.
- No longer trying to delete old recordings in AssertFreeDiskSpace() if the given
Priority is less than 1.
- Fixed handling LIRC events in case repeated events are lost.
- Fixed a possible crash when shutting down VDR while subtitles are being displayed
(reported by Ville Skyttä).
- cDevice::IsPrimaryDevice() now also checks whether the primary device actually has
a decoder and returns false otherwise. This should improve device allocation on
systems that are only used as a receiver and don't actually display anything.
- Increased the value of MAXRETRIES to 20 to reduce the probability of disturbances
in transfer mode.
- All bonded devices (except for the master) now turn off their LNB power completely
to avoid problems when receiving vertically polarized transponders (suggested by
Manfred Völkel and Oliver Endriss).
- Reverted the change from version 1.5.7 that made all logging go to LOG_ERR (thanks
to Christopher Reimer).
- Added Begin/EndSegmentTransfer() to the EPG handler interface (thanks to Jörg Wendel).
- The code for distributing recordings over several video directories is now
deprecated and disabled by default.
You can re-enable this feature by removing the comment sign ('//') from the beginning
of the line
//#define DEPRECATED_DISTRIBUTED_VIDEODIR // Code enclosed with this macro is ...
in the file videodir.c. Note, though, that this can only be a temporary workaround.
This feature will be completely removed in one of the next developer versions.
Distributing the video directory over several disks was a useful feature in times
when disks were still relatively small, but it also caused serious problems in case
one of the disks failed. Nowadays hard disks come in sizes measured in terabytes,
and tools like "mhddfs" can be used to combine several disks to form one large volume.
A recommended method for a relatively safe disk setup in a VDR system is to use two
1TB (or larger) disks and use them as a RAID-1 (mirrored). That way, if one disk
fails, you can replace it without data loss.

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

Version 1.7.0
- Re-implemented handling of DVB-S2, which first appeared in version 1.5.14, but was revoked in version 1.5.15 in favor of making a stable version 1.6.0. VDR now requires the "multiproto" DVB driver, e.g. from http://jusst.de/hg/multiproto. Note that the channels.conf file now supports additional parameters, so you may want to make sure you have a backup of this file in case you need to go back to the previous version of VDR! - Fixed displaying transponder data when it is modified (thanks to Reinhard Nissl). - Fixed handling the counter in detection of pre 1.3.19 PS data (thanks to Reinhard Nissl). - Improved logging system time changes to avoid problems on slow systems under heavy load (suggested by Helmut Auer). - Now setting the thread name, so that it can be seen in 'top -H' (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Fixed initializing the timer's flags in the cTimer copy constructor (thanks to Andreas Mair). - Fixed setting the OSD level in the 'osddemo' example (thanks to Wolfgang Rohdewald). - Increased the time between checking the CAM status to 500ms to avoid problems with some CAMs (reported by Arthur Konovalov). |

Version 1.1.3
- Improved the VDR Makefile to avoid a warning if the '.dependencies' file does not exist, and also using $(MAKE) to call recursive makes. - Changed the name of the 'package' target in the plugin Makefiles to 'dist' (following the suggestions in the "GNU Make" manual). If you already have started a plugin project, you may want to change this in your Makefile accordingly. - Improved the plugin Makefile to avoid a warning if the '.dependencies' file does not exist, and also using $(shell...) to get the version numbers. If you already have started a plugin project, you may want to change this in your Makefile accordingly. - Fixed some function headers to make them compile with gcc 3.x (thanks to Gregoire Favre). - Fixed the cutting mechanism to make it re-sync in case a frame is larger than the buffer (thanks to Sven Grothklags). - Added an error message if the directory specified in the '-L' option can't be accessed (suggested by Stefan Huelswitt). - Rearranged OSD class names to make 'cOsd' available for the main OSD interface. - Completely moved OSD handling out of the cDvbApi class, into the new cOsd. - Implemented cStatus to allow plugins to set up a status monitor. See PLUGINS.html for details. - Moved the cEITScanner out of dvbapi.h/.c, into the new eitscan.h/.c. - Added Swedish language texts (thanks to Tomas Prybil). - Fixed parsing 'E' records in epg2html.pl (thanks to Matthias Fechner for pointing out this one). - Removed compiler option '-m486' to make it work on non-Intel platforms. If you have already started a plugin project, you may want to make sure you remove this option from your existing Makefile. - Completely rearranged the recording and replay functions to make them available to plugins. - Replay is now done in a single thread (no more syncing between input and output thread necessary). - It is now possible to record several channels on the same transponder with "budget cards". VDR automatically attaches a recording timer to a card that already records on the appropriate transponder. How many parallel recordings can actually be done depends on the computer's performance. Currently any number of recordings gets attached to a card, so you should carefully plan your timers to not exceed the limit. On a K6-II/450 it was possible to record three channels from transponder 12480 with a single WinTV NOVA-S. - Timers that record two successive shows on the same channel may now overlap and will use the same DVB card. During the time where both timers record the data is simply saved to both files. - The following limitations apply to this version: + Transfer mode doesn't work yet. + The '-a' option (for Dolby Digital audio) doesn't work yet. + Switching between different language tracks doesn't work yet. + Cutting doesn't work yet. |
