- Fixed restoring CICAM setup values for a fourth DVB card (thanks to Klaus Wolf). - Completed internationalization of OSD texts (thanks to Hannu Savolainen, Arnold Niessen, Paulo Lopes, Jean-Claude Repetto, Alberto Carraro, Matjaz Thaler and Truls Slevigen). - Improved file I/O in case of EINTR, which may occur e.g. with heavy system load (thanks to Werner Fink). - Now writing the title of a recording into the 'summary.vdr' file. - Workaround for displaying still frames with the unpatched LinuxDVB driver (if anybody ever finds out why the unpatched driver doesn't display VDR's still frames, please let me know). - When executing a command from the "Commands" menu, the title of that command is now immediately shown in the status line (followed by "...") to give the user some feedback that the command is being executed, which is especially important if this takes some time. - Fixed scrolling the "Channels" menu in case the cursor ends up on a group delimiter (thanks to Bernd Zierath for helping to debug this one). - Added manual pages vdr(1) and vdr(5) (which made the FORMATS file obsolete). - New command command line option '-V' to display the VDR version. - Adjusting column width for channel numbers in case there are more than 999 channels. - Checking the return value of '...FileRady...' calls in dvbapi.c for better performance under heavy system load. - New 'make' target 'install', which copies the manual pages and executables to their appropriate system locations and creates the /video directory if it doesn't exist yet. - Automatic hotkey assignment is now suppressed if the first entry in commands.conf starts with a digit in the range '1'...'9', followed by a blank. - Fixed a bug in switching back the replay mode display in time shift mode (thanks to Achim Lange for reporting this one). - Fixed a bug in the 'First day' timer parameter for timers that record over midnight. - Added units to Setup parameters. - Changed time entry in the 'Jump' command during replay, so that it is filled up from right to left. - Now using statfs() to determine the amount of free disk space, which avoids the use of an external 'df' command (thanks to Ruben Nunez Francisco). - Fixed skipping the next hit of a repeating timer (thanks to Rainer Zocholl for reporting this one). - Fixed a bug when a timer records over midnight of a day that had a change in Daylight Saving Time. - Added Polish language texts (thanks to Michael Rakowski). - Fixed a bug in parsing group separators in channels.conf (thanks to Henning Holtschneider for reporting this one). - Changed the default 'Ok' key when using the PC keyboard from '5' (in the numeric block) to 'Enter', because the '5' key didn't work on keyboards with the F-keys on top. - Fixed a bug in the EPG bugfix mechanism if the extended description is shorter than 3 characters (thanks to Andreas Schultz).

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/people/kls/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.

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
|
|
possibilites 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.
