- Fixed a bug in channel switching after Left/Right has been pressed (thanks to Michael Walle for reporting this one). - Improved channel switching in case of numerical input by switching as soon as the channel is unique (suggested by Jaakko Hyvätti). - Fixed creating a new channel in the "Channels" menu in case the 'channels.conf' contains ':@nnn' lines with no text (thanks to Guy Roussin for reporting this one). - Changed the behaviour of the '0' key in normal viewing mode so that a channel only qualifies as "previous" if it has been selected for at least 3 seconds (suggested by Thomas Keil). - Now clearing the channel info display when entering numeric keys to switch channels (suggested by Guy Roussin). - Added missing I18N entry for "Ppid" (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Fixed handling the color buttons in the "Edit channel" menu (thanks to Thomas Keil for reporting this one). - Fixed an occasional "Broken pipe" error in SVDRP connections (thanks to Gerhard Steiner for reporting this one). - Fixed checking CA capabilities with the dvb-kernel driver (thanks to Kenneth Aafløy). - Fixed selecting the device, because sometimes an FTA recording terminated a CA recording (thanks to Emil Naepflein). - Fixed a possible crash in case a VFAT file system is used without compiling VDR with VFAT=1 (thanks to Ernst Fürst for reporting this one). - Now the program uses the values of VIDEODIR and PLUGINDIR defined in Makefile or Make.config as defaults (thanks to Steffen Barszus). - Added the usual menu timeout to the CAM menus.
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.
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.
