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

Version 1.3.16
- Fixed cChannel::SetName() in case only the ShortName or Provider has changed
(thanks to Sascha Volkenandt for reporting this one).
- Added Danish language texts (thanks to Mogens Elneff).
- Reactivated the NPTL check at startup because there appear to be still
unsolved problems when running on NPTL systems.
- Added missing calls to cStatus::MsgOsdClear() in cSkins::Message() (thanks
to Joachim Wilke for reporting this one, and Andreas Regel for additional
input).
- Fixed the cDvbSpuDecoder (thanks to Marco Schlüßler).
- Fixed handling of pmAudioOnlyBlack (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt).
- Fixed a short glitch when starting a recording on the primary device while
in replay or transfer mode (thanks to Marco Schlüßler).
- Added missing initialization of cEvent::seen.
- Checking PID language codes for ISO 639 compliance to avoid problems with
funny characters. Invalid language codes will be stored as "???".
- The '0' key now toggles the "Day" item in the "Timers" menu between "single
shot" and "repeating". The keys '1'...'7' can be used to toggle the individual
days ('1' is Monday). Thanks to Sascha Klek for reporting a problem with the
'0' key in the "Day" item of the "Timers" menu.

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

Version 1.3.7
- Fixed a memory leak in thread handling when using NPTL (thanks to Jon Burgess). - Fixed handling Setup.RecordDolbyDigital, which was broken since version 1.1.6. - Fixed handling text lengths for itemized EPG texts (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg). - Fixed the help for LSTE and LSTR (was broken in 1.3.6). - Improved iso8859-7 fonts (thanks to Dimitrios Dimitrakos). - Added some 3-letter language codes (thanks to Marcus Mönnig). - Added language code handling to the subtitling descriptor in 'libsi' (thanks to Pekka Virtanen). - Moved several menu item classes from menu.c to menuitems.[hc] to make them available for plugins. - The epg2html.pl script now handles '|' in description texts. - The new setup option "OSD/Use small font" can be used to control the use of the small font (see MANUAL for details). - Swapped osd.[hc] and osdbase.[hc] to have the virtual OSD base class named cOsd. Plugins may need to adjust their #include statements. - Colors are now given as AARRGGBB instead of AABBGGRR. The values are mapped to the driver's (wrong) sequence in dvbosd.c (this should really be fixed in the driver, together with the endian problem). - The new OSD setup parameters "Left" and "Top" can be used to define the top left corner of the OSD. - The OSD size parameters are now in pixel (as opposed to formerly characters). When reading a 'setup.conf' file from an older version of VDR, the OSDwidth and OSDheight values will be converted to pixel automatically. - The OSD is now fully device independent. See the comments in VDR/osd.h and the description in PLUGINS.html for information on how a plugin can implement an OSD display on arbitrary hardware. - The OSD (actually its cBitmap class) can now handle XPM files. There are several XPM files in the VDR/symbols directory which can be used by skins (some of these have been taken from the "elchi" patch). See VDR/skinsttng.c for examples on how to use these. - Due to the changes in the OSD handling the DEBUG_OSD option for a textual OSD has been dropped. There will be a plugin that implements a skin with this functionality later. - The entire OSD display can now be implemented via "skins". See VDR/skins.[hc], VDR/skinclassic.[hc], VDR/skinsttng.[hc] and PLUGINS.html for information on how a plugin can implement its own skin. By default VDR comes with a "Classic" skin that implements the OSD display known from previous versions, and the new skin named "ST:TNG Panels", which is also the default skin now. The actual skin can be selected through "Setup/OSD/Skin". - The colors used in a skin can now be configured using "themes". See PLUGINS.html for information on how a skin can make use of themes, and man vdr(5) for the structure of a theme file. The actual theme to use can be selected through "Setup/OSD/Theme". - Added Croatian language texts (thanks to Drazen Dupor). NOTE: there is apparently a problem with the newly introduced iso8859-2 font, because as soon as Setup/OSD/Language is set to Croatian (currently the last one in the list) everything freezes and the vdr processes have to be killed with -9 and the driver needs to be reloaded. Maybe somebody else can find out what's going wrong here... - Added missing NULL checks when accessing sectionHandler in device.c (thanks to Pekka Virtanen). - Fixed setting the time from the DVB data stream (thanks to Helmut Auer for pointing out a frequency/transponder handling mixup). This now also takes the actual source (sat, cable etc.) into account. Please go into "Setup/EPG" and set the "Set system time" and "Use time from transponder" parameters accordingly (this is necessary even if you have already set them before!). |

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

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

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

Version 1.3.0
- Changed thread handling to make it work with NPTL ("Native Posix Thread Library").
Thanks to Jon Burgess, Andreas Schultz, Werner Fink and Stefan Huelswitt.
- The cThread class now accepts a 'Description' parameter, which is used to log
the beginning and end of the thread, together with its process and thread id.
For descriptions that need additional parameters you can use the function
cThread::SetDescription(), which accepts 'printf()' like arguments.
Existing plugins that use threads should be changed to use this functionality
instead of explicit 'dsyslog()' calls inside their Action() function in order
to support logging the thread ids.
- Added "Slovak Link" and "Czech Link" to 'ca.conf' (thanks to Emil Petersky).
However, 'ca.conf' is now pretty much obsolete due to the automatic CA handling.
- Mutexes are now created with PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK_NP, which makes the
'lockingTid' stuff obsolete (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt).
- Changed font handling to allow language specific character sets.
- Adopted the small font character set from the "Elchi" patch (originally
provided by Alessio Sangalli).
- Greek language texts now use iso8859-7 character set (thanks to Dimitrios
Dimitrakos).
- Rearranged section data handling, so that the actual data handling can be done
separately, even from within plugins.
- The EPG data structures have been moved from eit.[hc] to epg.[hc] and have been
adapted to the general VDR coding style. Plugins that use these data structures
may need to change some function names (which should be obvious).
The name 'subtitle' has been changed to 'shortText' to avoid clashes with actual
subtitles that are part of a movie. The name 'extendedDescription' has been
shortened to 'description'.
- Replaced 'libdtv' with 'libsi' (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg), which is thread
safe and can be used by multiple section filters simultaneously.
- Added 'cRwLock' to 'thread.[hc]'. Note that all plugin Makefiles need to
define _GNU_SOURCE for this to work (see the example plugin Makefiles and
'newplugin').
- Fixed a problem with crc32 in SI handling on 64bit systems (thanks to Pedro
Miguel Sequeira de Justo Teixeira for reporting this one).
- Fixed an alignment problem in CAM access on 64bit systems (thanks to Pedro
Miguel Sequeira de Justo Teixeira for reporting this one).
- Added 'StreamType' setting to CAM communication, which is important for
Aston/SECA CAMs (thanks to Antonino Sergi).
- Now the CA descriptors are sent to the CAM in the 'program' or 'ES level'
sections, depending on where they are found in the PMT (thanks to Hans-Peter
Raschke for reporting this one). This should make SkyCrypt CAMs work.
- Now using the 'version number' of EPG events to avoid unnecessary work.
- Channel data is now automatically derived from the DVB data stream (inspired
by the 'autopid' patch from Andreas Schultz).
- The current channel is now automatically re-tuned if the PIDs or other settings
change. If a recording is going on on a channel that has a change in its
settings, the recording will be stopped and immediately restarted to use the
new channel settings.
- EPG events now use the complete channel ID with NID, TID and SID.
- Channel names in 'channels.conf' can now have a short form, as provided
by some tv stations (see man vdr(5)). Currently channels that provide short
names in addition to long ones are listed in the OSD as "short,long name",
as in "RTL,RTL Television". The short names will be used explicitly later.
- The Ca parameter in 'channels.conf' has been extended and now contains all the
CA system ids for the given channel. When switching to a channel VDR now tests
for a device that provides one of these CA system ids. The devices automatically
get their supported ids from the CI handler.
- The values in 'ca.conf' are currently without any real meaning. Whether or not
a channel with conditional access can be received is now determined automatically
by evaluating its CA descriptors and comparing them to the CA system ids
provided by the installed CAM. Only the special values 1-16 are used to assign
a channel to a particular device.
- Increased the maximum number of possible OSD colors to 256.
- Limited the line length in the EPG bugfix report, which appears to fix a buffer
overflow that caused a crash when cleaning up the EPG data (at 05:00 in the
morning).

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 1.1.4
- Added Hungarian language texts (thanks to Istvan Koenigsberger and Guido Josten). - Activated cutting. - Activated 'Transfer Mode'. - Moved handling of the Menu key entirely into vdr.c. - Switched VDR's own player to the new cPlayer/cControl structures. - Switched handling 'Transfer Mode' to the new cPlayer/cControl structures. - The following limitations apply to this version: + The '-a' option (for Dolby Digital audio) doesn't work yet. + Switching between different language tracks doesn't work yet. |

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. |

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 0.68
- Date and time in the title of an event info page are now always right adjusted. - The 'current channel' is now handled device specific (in case there is more than one DVB card). - The 'SetSystemTime' option in the "Setup" menu is now shown as "yes/no". - Implemented "internationalization" (see 'i18n.c' for information on how to add new languages). Thanks to Miha Setina for translating the OSD texts to the Slovenian language. - Fixed learning keys on the PC keyboard (display oscillated). - Fixed a timing problem with OSD refresh and SVDRP. - Avoiding multiple definitions of the same timer in the "Schedule" menu (this could happen when pressing the "Red" button while editing the timer). - There can now be a configuration file named 'commands.conf' that defines commands that can be executed through the "Main" menu's "Commands" option (see FORMATS for details on how to define these commands). - Added a 'fixed' font for use with the output of system commands. - The 'Priority' parameter of the timers is now also used to interrupt a low priority timer recording if a higher priority timer wants to record. - A timer recording on a DVB card with a CAM module will now be interrupted by a timer that needs to use this specific DVB card to record an encrypted channel, if the timer currently occupying this DVB card doesn't need the CAM module (and thus can continue recording on a different DVB card). - The "Yellow" button in the "What's on now/next?" menus now displays the schedule of the current channel from that menu. - All DVB cards in a multi-card system now write their EIT information into the same data structure. - If there is more than one DVB card in the system, the non-primary cards are now used to periodically scan through the channels in order to keep the EPG info up-to-date. Scanning kicks in after 60 seconds of user inactivity (timeout in order to keep user interactions instantaneously) and each channel that has the 'pnr' parameter defined in 'channels.conf' is switched to for 20 seconds. If there is only one DVB card in the system, that card will start scanning after 5 hours (configurable through the "Setup" menu) of user inactivity and will switch back to the channel it originally displayed at the first sign of user activity. Any scanning will only occur if that particular card is not currently recording or replaying. - Now shifting the 'Subtitle' info into the 'ExtendedDescription' on stations that don't send the EIT information correctly (like, e.g., 'VOX'). - Implemented a 10 seconds latency when removing files. - Fixed unwanted reaction on the "Green" and "Yellow" button in the "Event" display. - Implemented 'Transfer Mode' to display video data from the DVB card that actually can receive a certain channel on the primary interface. This is currently in an early state and may still cause some problems, but it appears to work nice already. |
