- Completed storing the current audio volume in the setup.conf file (thanks to Andy Grobb). - Fixed closing the progress display with the "Back" key when in trick mode and Setup.ShowReplayMode is enabled (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt). - New SVDRP commands LSTR and DELR to list and delete recordings (thanks to Thomas Heiligenmann). - Fixed a crash when pressing the '2' button while replaying a DVD. - Updated 'channels.conf' for the "Bundesliga" channels of Premiere World (thanks to Mel Schächner). - Changed the tuning code to use FrontendInfo to detect the type of DVB card. - Removed the recursion stuff from cThread (cMutex already does this). - Fixed handling the repeat function in the channel display. - Avoiding multiple EPG entries for the same event (thanks to Rolf Hakenes for some valuable information on how to do this). - A recording on the primary interface can now be stopped to make it continue on an other free DVB card (if one is free at the moment). See MANUAL for details. - Added some missing teletext PIDs (thanks to Norbert Schmidt). - Added PTS to the converted PCM audio when replaying a DVD (thanks to Andreas Schultz). Now the audio and video of a DVD replayed over the DVB card's A/V out should always be in sync. - Fixed handling the "Power" key in case Setup.MinUserInactivity is set to 0 to disable automatic shutdown. - Added a fifth parameter to the 'shutdown' call that indicates the reason for this shutdown request (see INSTALL). - Fixed releasing 'index' memory after recording or playback. - Fixed ejecting a DVD while it is being replayed. - Removed all video overlay stuff from cDvbApi and SVDRP. Guido Fiala's new 'kvdr' version 0.4 now does these things itself. As a consequence of this you will now need to use kvdr 0.4 or later. - The device /dev/video is now opened only if necessary (to GRAB an image), allowing other programs (like 'kvdr', for instance) to use that device.
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. What do you think? ------------------ So, what do you think about this project? Does it make sense? Were you able to use it? Do you have suggestions on how to improve it? Please send email to kls@cadsoft.de if you'd like to comment on this.
