Klaus Schmidinger	f836711024	Version 1.3.25 ... - Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov). - Some cable providers don't mark short channel names according to the standard, but rather go their own way and use "name>short name". VDR now splits at this character for cable channels (thanks to Gerhard Steiner for reporting this one). - Added a check for Setup.DiSEqC in cDvbDevice::ProvidesTransponder(), otherwise the EPG scan didn't work on systems that don't use DiSEqC (thanks to Michael Reinelt for reporting this one). - Made the Makefile patch friendlier (thanks to Ludwig Nussel). - Made cOsd::isOpen an integer counter to avoid problems with messages when a cOsdObject uses the raw OSD (thanks to Andreas Regel for reporting this one). - Updated the Danish OSD texts (thanks to Mogens Elneff). - The file 'summary.vdr' has been replaced with 'info.vdr' and now contains the information about a recording, in the same format as the events are stored in 'epg.data' (see man vdr(5) for details). Existing summary files can be converted to the new format by running the Perl script 'summary2info.pl', as in summary2info.pl /video (the parameter given has to be the video directory). If there is no 'info.vdr' file for a recording, an attempt is made to read a 'summary.vdr'. - The "Summary" button in the "Recordings" menu has been renamed to "Info", and the page it brings up now shows the recording's information, much like the EPG event page. Therefore it now no longer uses the skin's SetText() function, but rather the SetRecording() function. Skin plugins may need to adjust that function accordingly (see skinsttng.c, for instance). - The SVDRP command LSTR now lists the recording information in the same tagged format as the LSTE command lists the EPG data. - The audio track menu now contains track descriptions when replaying (provided such descriptions were available in the EPG data when the recording was made, and are stored in the info.vdr file). - Avoiding extra blanks at the end of names of instant recordings. - Removed converting byte order on big endian systems from cDvbOsd::Flush(), which, according to Johannes Stezenbach and Paavo Hartikainen, is wrong. - Added cPlayer::DeviceSetVideoDisplayFormat() (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - No longer saving the setup in case of a fatal error, to keep the volume level from being set to a wrong value (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - Fixed a possible hangup when ending a replay session while cIndexFile::CatchUp() is waiting (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - The SVDRP command DELR no longer deletes recordings that are currently being written to by a timer (thanks to Sascha Volkenandt for pointing out this one). - Pressing the "Play" key in live viewing mode now resumes a previous replay session (thanks to Mirko Dölle). - Now dropping EPG events that have a zero start time or duration (thanks to Oliver Endriss). - No longer stopping Transfer Mode or replay immediately when the Power button is pressed (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Moved the NPTL and UTF-8 checks after the version and help output (thanks to Andreas Kool for pointing out that 'vdr --version' failed on an UTF-8 system). - Made tChannelID::operator==() inline for better performance (thanks to Georg Acher). - Introduced cListBase::count for better performance (thanks to Georg Acher). - cEvent no longer stores the channelID directly, but rather has a pointer to the schedule it is in. - Now using hash tables to speed up cSchedule::GetEvent() (partially based on a patch from Georg Acher). - Avoiding unnecessary calls to getLength() in libsi/si.c, and avoiding the '& 0xff' in CRC32::crc32() of libsi/util.c (thanks to Georg Acher). - Speeded up deleting duplicate channels. - Fixed listing recordings with empty episode names in the LSTR command (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt for pointing this out). - Added cThread::SetPriority() and using it in cSectionHandler::Action() to reduce the priority of the section handler threads (as suggested by Georg Acher).	2005-05-29 18:00:00 +02:00
Klaus Schmidinger	6f93a5f781	Version 1.3.14 ... - Fixed detecting transponder lock in cDvbTuner (based on a patch from Stefan Meyknecht). - What was previously marked with WAIT_FOR_LOCK_AFTER_TUNING is now permanently active and uses a cCondVar to signal when a transponder is locked. - Added some missing 'const' to cChannel. - Added a sample setup for 'DisiCon-4 Single Cable Network' to 'diseqc.conf' (thanks to Oliver Endriss). - Fixed attaching a cPlayer to a cDevice, so that 'Operation not permitted' errors don't occur any more (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - Fixed a case where the resultBuffer in cRemux ran full before getting a sync. - Removed the usleep() call from cDvbPlayer::Action() to make VDR run on NPTL systems (thanks to Alfred Zastrow). The NPTL check at startup has also been removed. - Taking the complete size of available data into account when deciding whether to clear the transfer buffer to avoid overflows (thanks to Reinhard Nissl). - Updated Romanian language texts and the iso8859-2 fonts (thanks to Lucian Muresan). - Now actually using the iso8859-15 fonts (thanks to Lucian Muresan). - Some minor code cleanups (thanks to Prakash K. Cheemplavam). - Fixed missing cleanup at program exit in case there is a problem with a plugin (thanks to Mattias Grönlund for pointing this out). - Increased the required free buffer space in the resultBuffer of cRemux to 2 * IPACKS to avoid a buffer overflow in case a cTS2PES writes one complete packet and then (within processing the same TS packet) wants to write another small packet. - Removed the signal handler and WakeUp() call from cThread (it is no longer needed). - Added some checks when canceling a thread and removed the usleep() in cThread::Start() (suggested by Ludwig Nussel). Also removed 'running' from cThread and using only childTid to indicate whether a thread is actually running. - Added cCondWait::Sleep() and using it to replace all usleep() calls (based on a suggestion by Werner Fink). - Only assigning events to timers if the related schedule has actually been modified. - When searching for the present event, the running status is now only taken into account if the event has been "seen" within the past 30 seconds. This avoids shortly seeing the wrong events in the channel display when switching to a channel that hasn't been tuned to in a while.	2004-10-24 18:00:00 +02:00
Klaus Schmidinger	af483c11ae	Version 1.3.13 ... - Fixed checking for the presence of NPTL (thanks to Jouni Karvo). - Making sure section filters are only set if the device actually has a lock (thanks to Andreas Share for pointing this out). - Fixed a possible NULL pointer assignment in cMenuText::SetText() (thanks to Marco Schlüssler). - Fixed a crash in case the last line in channels.conf is a group separator and that group is selected in the channel display (thanks to Dick Streefland). - Added cRingBufferLinear::Read() to read directly from a file handle into the ring buffer. - Using timeouts in ring buffers to avoid 'usleep()'. - Clearing the 'Transfer Mode' ring buffer after clearing the device to avoid an "almost full" ring buffer. - Removed locking from cRingBufferLinear for better performance under high load. - Using a cRingBufferLinear in cRemux to avoid unnecessary copying of data. - Using a cRingBufferLinear in cTSBuffer and filling it in a separate thread to avoid buffer overflows. Plugins using cTSBuffer will need to remove the call to the now obsolete Read() function (see cDvbDevice::GetTSPacket() for the new usage of cTSBuffer). - cRemux::Process() has been split into Put(), Get() and Del() to allow for a better decoupling of the remuxing and disk writing process. Plugins using cRemux will need to be modified accordingly. - The actual disk writing in recordings is now done in a separate thread to improve the overall throughput. - Changed cRemux so that it returns the maximum available amount of data with each call, not just 2048 byte. - Added a visual display of all cRingBufferLinear buffers for debugging. To activate it, define DEBUGRINGBUFFERS in ringbuffer.h. - Instead of cCondVar now using the new cCondWait (which also avoids a possible "near miss" condition; thanks to Sascha Volkenandt for pointing out this one). cCondVar is still present for plugins that use it (and VDR itself also still uses it in cRemote). - The cRingBuffer now does EnableGet()/EnablePut() only if the buffer is more than one third full or empty, respectively. This dramatically improves recording performance and reduces system load (thanks to Marco Schlüßler for doing some testing regarding buffer performance and giving me some hints that finally led to finding out that this was the basic problem causing buffer overflows). - Improved Transfer Mode (thanks to Marco Schlüßler for suggestions and testing). - Fixed a possible crash with inconsistent SI data (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg). - Fixed showing the replay mode if the OSD is currently in use (thanks to Kimmo Tykkala for pointing out this problem). - cOsdProvider::NewOsd() now always returns a valid pointer, even if the OSD is currently in use (it will then return a dummy cOsd object and write a message to the log file). - Added Estonian language texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov). - Fixed 'newplugin' and libsi/Makefile to use the compiler defined in $(CXX) for generating file dependencies (thanks to Andreas Brachold). - Moved the initialization of aPid1 and aPid2 to the beginning of cDvbDevice::cDvbDevice() to have them set in case a patch references them (thanks to Wayne Keer for pointing this out). - Completed the Russian OSD texts (thanks to Vyacheslav Dikonov). - Avoiding unnecessary section filter start/stops (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - Made the "Channel not available!" message and mtInfo instead of mtError (suggested by Wayne Keer). - Made volume control more linear (thanks to Emil Naepflein and Udo Richter). - Now skipping code table info in SI data (suggested by Milos Kapoun). - Added missing Czech characters to fontosd-iso8859-2.c (thanks to Milos Kapoun). - Fixed a crash in the time search mechanism (reported by Reinhard Nissl). - If one PID can't be added, the whole cDevice::AttachReceiver() will now fail and all PIDs added so far will be deleted (thanks to Marco Schlüßler for pointing out this one). - Now only saving channels.conf after a modification made by the user (avoids lots of disk access due to automatic channel updates). Automatic channel modifications will be saved every 10 minutes if no recording is currently active. - Removed the 'Log' parameter from the cChannel::Set... functions. Instead checking if the channel has a non-zero number. - Updated 'channels.conf.terr' for Hannover (thanks to Sven Kreiensen).	2004-10-17 18:00:00 +02:00
Klaus Schmidinger	335a572913	Version 1.3.12 ... - Removed all error messages from cRecordings::ScanVideoDir() and just skipping entries that cause errors in order to avoid failure in case of things like broken links etc. - The function cTimers::SetEvents() now immediately returns if there is some user input. - Fixed handling menu status messages when the list contents is scrolled (thanks to Alfred Zastrow for reporting this one). - Fixed checking the last area for misalignment in cOsd::CanHandleAreas() (thanks to Reinhard Nissl for reporting this one). - No longer adding section filters to the list of filters if they can't be opened (thanks to Marco Schlüßler for pointing this out). - Fixed handling error case '-1' when polling section filters (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - Fixed handling error case '-1' when polling CAM connections. - Making sure the OSD reports oeWrongAlignment errors before any oeAreasOverlap error (suggested by Reinhard Nissl). - Avoiding flashing effects in the OSD of full featured DVB cards by explicitly clearing the OSD windows before opening them (suggested by Marco Schlüßler). - Experimental support for NVOD channels. Currently these channels are detected and linked to their "base" channels using the same mechanisms as for the "linked services" (let's see if this is useful). Thanks to Mike parker for helping to test this. Also used some input from the 'autopid' patch by Andreas Schultz). - Now storing the name of the service provider (aka "bouquet") in the channel name, separated by a semicolon (see man vdr(5) for details). Explicit usage of the various parts of the channel name is yet to come. - The 'radio' channel icon is now only displayed in the ST:TNG skin if the channel actually has an APID.	2004-07-18 18:00:00 +02:00
Klaus Schmidinger	3fc2965975	Version 1.3.4 ... - Fixed handling language codes in case there is no audio or Dolby PID. - Fixed handling CA ids (was broken in 1.3.3). - Fixed the SVDRP command 'STAT DISK' to avoid a 'division by 0' in case the disk is full (thanks to Jens Rosenboom). - Fixed handling bitmap indexes for 256 color mode (thanks to Andreas Regel). - Now handling "linked services" (based on the 'autopid' patch from Andreas Schultz). Linked channels are detected and added to 'channels.conf', but currently they are not yet presented to the user other than being in the normal channel list (this will come later). - Preliminary fix for the "Unknown picture type error" (thanks to Sascha Volkenandt for his support in debugging this one). This may slow down switching between channels on different transponders for now, but a better solution will come later. - Fixed the validity check for channel IDs, because some providers use TIDs with value 0 (thanks to Thomas Bergwinkl). - Enabled switching to a channel even if it has no Vpid or Apid set, because these might be automatically set when tuned to that transponder. - No longer closing the Channels menu after trying to switch to a channel that is currently not available. - Removed the now obsolete CaCaps stuff. The Setup/CICAM menu now displays the actual CAM type as reported by the CAM. The 'ca.conf' file has been stripped down to the values 0..4.	2004-02-08 18:00:00 +01:00
Klaus Schmidinger	a76a03c0d8	Version 1.3.1 ... - Fixed a lockup in the EPG scanner when no non-primary device was available (thanks to Martin Holst for reporting this one). - Fixed a compiler warning about virtual cConfig::Load() functions (thanks to Lauri Tischler for reporting this one). - Fixed a warning about character comparison in libsi/si.c (thanks to Lauri Tischler for reporting this one). - The new parameter "Update channels" in the "Setup/DVB" menu can be used to control if and how channels will be automatically updated (see MANUAL). This has already been part of the 'autopid' patch by Andreas Schultz and has now been adopted. - Fixed a crash in case there is no DVB hardware present (thanks to Sascha Volkenandt for reporting this one). - Changed calculation of channel ids to make it work for tv stations that use the undefined NID value 0 (thanks to Teemu Rantanen for reporting this one). - Enhanced the SDT filter to handle multi part sections. - Added support for selecting preferred EPG languages (based upon a patch by Teemu Rantanen). - Fixed a 'const' in libsi/si.h (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg). - Fixed the 'su' call in 'runvdr' to make it work on systems that require the user name to appear before the command option (thanks to Robert Huitl). - Fixed testing for matching section filters in case they are turned off (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg). - In case of incomplete sections an error message is now logged only every 10 seconds. - Fixed a possible NULL pointer access in cEITScanner::Process() (thanks to Andreas Kool). - The actual transponder data is now taken from the NIT and existing channels are adjusted if necessary. If the NIT contains new transponders, they are scanned for channels during the next EPG scan. Note that only the satellite branches are tested, cable and terrestrial need to be tested by somebody who actually has such equipment.	2004-01-11 18:00:00 +01:00
Klaus Schmidinger	93a94b18b5	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).	2004-01-04 18:00:00 +01:00
