- Fixed the 'newplugin' script to make it name the target for creating the distribution package 'dist', as stated in the PLUGINS.html documentation. If you have already created a plugin source directory and Makefile you may want to check it and replace the 'package' target with 'dist' if necessary. - Changed device handling for being able to do simultaneous recording and replay on the same device (Time Shifting). In order for this to work you need to use a driver with a firmware version that has this feature implemented. - cDevice::ProvidesCa() is no longer virtual. The new function cDevice::ProvidesChannel() is now used to determine whether a device can receive a given channel, and by default this function returns false. So a device that is a pure replaying device doesn't need to do anything here. - Increased the recorder buffer size to 5MB in order to be able to better handle multiple recordings. - Implemented cTSBuffer for better handling TS packet buffering in derived cDevice classes. - Changed the interface if cDevice::GetTSPacket() to avoid unnecessary copying of data. - Removed cDevice::Channel(), since this makes no more sense with devices receiving multiple channels. - Switching through channels with the 'Up' and 'Down' keys now skips channels that are currently not available (for instance because all devices are recording and these channels are on different transponders). - Implemented an SPU decoder (thanks to Andreas Schultz). - Fixed a crash when entering an integer value outside the limits (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt for reporting this one). - Added play mode pmAudioOnlyBlack (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt).
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. The author can be contacted at kls@cadsoft.de. 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.
