- Removed leftover LSMOD=... line from 'runvdr'. - Modified the Makefile to copy additional libraries a plugin might provide (suggested by Wayne Keer). See PLUGINS.html for details. - Fixed handling Transfer Mode when replaying Dolby Digital audio and the option '-a' was given (based on a patch from Werner Fink). To avoid having to increment the API version, several #if checks have been introduced around this. These will be removed once the API version actually needs to be incremented. - Fixed deleting the 'skinDescriptions' in cMenuSetupOSD::~cMenuSetupOSD() (thanks to Tobias Grimm). - Fixed calculating the start time of repeated timers with "first day" (thanks to Udo Richter). - Now setting a timer's cached start time to 0 after a call to Skip() (thanks to Udo Richter). - Fixed handling the running status of EPG events in case the "Schedule" menu is currently open (i.e. a write lock on the schedules data can't be achieved). - Fixed handling VPS timers in case the EPG event hasn't been 'seen' in a while. - Fixed calculating the cache size in cUnbufferedFile::Read() (thanks to Artur Skawina). - Removed -fPIC from VDR's and libsi's Makefile (suggested by Prakash Punnoor). - Modifed the device selection to better handle timer conflicts (reported by Christian Wieninger). - Avoiding a compiler warning in libsi's TypeLoop::operator[]. - Now processing the "frequency list descriptor" (based on a patch from Anssi Hannula). - Improved the repeat function for LIRC remote controls (thanks to Joerg Riechardt). - Fixed moving channels, which sometimes stopped the current replay session (reported by Mirko Dölle). - Fixed deleting channels in case the current channel's number changes (reported by Mirko Dölle).
Video Disk Recorder ('VDR')
---------------------------
These files contain the source code of the "Video Disk Recorder",
which is based on the DVB driver of the LinuxTV project (http://linuxtv.org).
For details about the "Video Disk Recorder" project please
refer to http://www.cadsoft.de/vdr.
There is also a remote control unit described on those
Web pages, which can be used within this program.
Please see the INSTALL file for details on how to install
this program on your computer.
The MANUAL file describes how to operate the VDR.
The CONTRIBUTORS file lists all the people who have contributed to the
development of VDR.

Yet another "set-top box"?
--------------------------
The "set-top boxes" available from commercial companies all have
one major drawback: they are not "open". This project's goal is
to build an "open" digital satellite receiver and timer controlled
video disk recorder, based upon open standards and freely available
driver software (of course, the hardware still has to be bought).
The on screen menu system is simple, but shall provide all the
possibilities necessary to perform timer controlled recording,
file management and even "on disk editing". The menus
of commercial set-top boxes usually are a lot more fancy than
the ones in this system, but here we have the full source code
and can modify the menus in whatever way desired.
