- EPG events from epg.data or SVDRP's PUTE command now have their Title set to "No Title" if none was set. - Fixed checking toFile in cCuttingThread::Action() (found in a larger patch from Artur Skawina). - Fixed a crash when pressing '0' in the "Schedule" menu on a channel that doesn't have any EPG data (reported ny Alexander Hans). - Updated the Danish OSD texts (thanks to Mogens Elneff). - Fixed a missing ',' in the Greek OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov). - Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov). - Fixed handling the tfRecording flag when reading timers (bug reported by Andreas Mair). - Now checking whether the channel exists before setting the PMT filter in cPatFilter::Process() (thanks to Thomas Bergwinkl). - Now trying to reestablish the connection to the LIRC daemon in case it breaks (thanks to Ville Skyttä). - Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Fixed channel switching with the Down (Up) key in case the current channel is already the first (last) in the list (reported by Frank Krömmelbein). - Removed the "buffer reserve" in Transfer Mode - it's no longer necessary with recent driver/firmware versions. - The epg.data file is now written when VDR exits (suggested by Daniel Karsubka). - Fixed cTimers::GetNextActiveTimer() so that it won't return an expired timer (reported by Rolf Ahrenberg). - Changed DVBS_TUNE_TIMEOUT and DVBC_TUNE_TIMEOUT to 9000ms to avoid problems with channels that have low symbol rates (reported by Suur Karu). - Fixed displaying the current audio track in the channel display. - When reading epg.data (or data from PUTE), the version number of events with table IDs smaller than 0x50 is now ignored because otherwise the current running status would not be set after a restart of VDR. - Implemented a timeout for remote controls that don't deliver "repeat" keypresses very fast (based on a suggestion by Luca Olivetti; problem with the new handling of k_Repeat keypresses in channel switching reported by Udo Richter). - When looking for the present or following EPG event, the running status is now always taken into account. - Now initializing the channels' schedule pointers when reading the epg.data file, so that the first WhatsOn menu will come up faster. - If a shutdown is requested, but the shutdown script doesn't actually halt the system, it is now tried again after 5 minutes (suggested by Helmut Auer). - Separated the 'install' target into several individual targets; renamed the 'plugins-install' target to 'install-plugins' (thanks to Helmut Auer).
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.
