- Fixed the Makefile of the 'servicedemo' plugin, so that it defines the PLUGIN macro, which allows the Make.config file to react properly when compiling the plugin (reported by Bernd Melcher). Note to all plugin developers: a plugin's Makefile *must* define the PLUGIN macro, even if it doesn't use it itself! - Added a comment regarding the PLUGIN macro to the 'newplugin' script. - Added '--vfat' to the vdr.1 man page (reported by Udo Richter). - Removed a double fdopen() in cPipe::Open() (reported by Stefan Huelswitt). - Fixed handling the running status of EPG events before the currently running one, in case they are added after the current event. - cEIT::cEIT() now calls pSchedule->SetPresentSeen() even if OnlyRunningStatus is true. - Newlines in title and short text of an EPG event are now changed into blanks only after all other fixes, because a short text might become a description. - Fixed handling network masks in the svdrphosts.conf file (thanks to Patrick Maier). - Fixed handling relative volume settings in the call to cStatus::MsgSetVolume() (reported by Norbert Wentz). - Added a missing initialization of 'mutex' in cCiMenu::cCiMenu() and removed some superfluous semicolons in ci.c (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - Fixed handling client side termination of SVDRP connections (thanks to Frank Schmirler). - cDevice::GetDevice() now prefers any device that's already receiving and doesn't require detatching receivers (suggested by Anssi Hannula). - Fixed handling numeric keys in the channel display after switching channel groups (thanks to Andreas Regel). - Menu items derived from cMenuEditIntItem now loop though their values if they have a dedicated minimum or maximum limit (suggested by Andy Grobb). Looping is only done for normal keypresses, not for repeated ones. This allows the user to scroll the value all the way to the limit by keeping the key pressed.
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
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.
