- Fixed cDvbDevice::SetAudioTrackDevice() to avoid a blank screen after switching back to live mode if a recording is currently active on the primary device. - Fixed a possible freeze in pause mode in case a device's PlayPesPacket() function permanently returns 0 (thanks to Reinhard Nissl and Olaf Titz). - Completed the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Restricted the "setting audio track" log message to automatic changes during replay. - Fixed handling Transfer Mode for radio channels (thanks to Andreas Regel for reporting this one). - Fixed handling symbolic links in cRecordings::ScanVideoDir() (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt). - Completed the Danish OSD texts (thanks to Mogens Elneff). - Forcing a new resync after a call to cRemux::Clear() (suggested by Marco Schlüßler). - The cAudio::Play() function now has an additional parameter 'uchar Id' which tells the function the substream id of the given audio packet, so that a plugin can take the right action for the various kinds if audio data - which now also includes "normal" audio with ids 0xC0...0xDF (based on suggestions by Werner Fink and Macro Schlüßler). - Removed the "Cleared/PlayPes(NULL, 0)" handling from cTransfer::Action(), since this is now done when attaching the player to the device (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - Making sure the buffer reserve in cTransfer::Action() is re-established after clearing the buffer. - Added DeviceClrAvailableTracks() and DeviceSetCurrentAudioTrack() to cPlayer (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - Fixed a typo in detecting UTF-8 (thanks to Reinhard Nissl). - Now using twice the buffer reserve in cTransfer if the primary DVB card is an unmodified version with only 2MB of SDRAM, to avoid audio stuttering when playing Dolby Digital over the DVB card (thanks to Christian Jacobsen and Chad Flynt for suggestions and experiments in that area). - Making sure the first audio packet is not dropped when switching to "pre 1.3.19 Dolby Digital compatibility mode". - The 'plugins-clean' target of the Makefile now only deletes the actual plugin library files from this version of VDR (suggested by Andreas Brachold). - Added a missing 'resultSkipped = 0' to cRemux::Clear() (thanks to Marco Schlüßler for reporting this one). - The new function cDvbDevice::SetTransferModeForDolbyDigital() can be used by plugins that implement Dolby Digital output and thus want to prevent the cDvbDevice from starting Transfer Mode in order to replay DD over the DVB device. - Added missing reset of the 'repacker' to cTS2PES::Clear() (thanks to Marco Schlüßler for reporting this one).
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.
