- Fixed a name clash between skincurses.c and the new cOsd position functions.
- Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Changed the parameter "OSD font size" to "Default font size" in "Setup/OSD".
- Fixed handling address masks in SVDRP host settings (thanks to Frank Schmirler).
- Fonts can now be created with a width that overwrites the default width (thanks
  to Andreas Mair).
- Added full weekday names to i18n.c for plugins to use (thanks to Patrice Staudt).
  The new function WeekDayNameFull() can be used to get these names from integer
  values (just like the abbreviated weekday names).
- Fixed stripping i18n stuff from font names (reported by Anssi Hannula).
- Improved performance of the SVDRP commands LSTC and CHAN when used with a
  channel name.

- Increased APIVERSION (forgot to do that in 1.5.2 and 1.5.3).
- Fixed a crash in i18n character set conversion (thanks to Alexander Riedel,
  Jose Alberto Reguero and Christian Wieninger for patches that cured part of
  the problem).
- Adjusted the 'skincurses' plugin to UTF-8 handling.
- Using nl_langinfo(CODESET) to determine the local codeset to use (thanks to
  Thomas Günther). The codeset names in 'libsi/si.c' have been changed to the
  canonical spelling with '-' (thanks to Ludwig Nussel for pointing this out).
- Modified handling invalid characters in VFAT mode.
- Replaced strn0cpy() with Utf8Strn0Cpy() where necessary.
- Now using 'fontconfig' to determine which fonts to use (thanks to Anssi Hannula
  for code and hints on how to do this).
- If no fonts are installed, VDR now uses a dummy font that doesn't actually draw
  any text, and logs an error message.
- The new function cFont::CreateFont() can be used by plugins to create and use
  fonts of their own, independent of VDR's standard fonts.
- Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Changed the parameter "OSD font" to "Default font" in "Setup/OSD" (suggested
  by Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Fixed handling detached processes in SystemExec() (thanks to Udo Richter).
- The info.vdr file now also stores the name of the channel, and the new function
  cRecordingInfo::ChannelName() returns this information if available (based on
  a patch from Alexander Hans).
- The new function cOsd::SetOsdPosition() can be used to dynamically change the
  position and size of the OSD (based on a request from Christoph Haubrich).
  Plugins that implement skins should no longer use Setup.OSDWidth etc. directly,
  but should rather use cOsd::OsdWidth() etc. instead.
  Currently a change to the OSD position will only apply to newly opened OSDs.

- Fixed some spelling errors in 'newplugin' (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- Fixed a busy loop in fast forward if the next video data file is missing
  (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Fixed handling frequencies in NitFilter::Process() (thanks to Anssi Hannula).
- Fixed a race condition with signal handlers at program exit (thanks to Udo
  Richter).
- Non-primary devices in Transfer mode are now also used for recording (thanks
  to Anssi Hannula).
- Fixed handling ChannelUp/Down keys if there is currently a replay running
  (thanks to Marco Schlüßler).
- The new SVDRP command REMO can be used to turn VDR's remote control off and
  on in case other programs need to be controlled (based on patches from Krzysztof
  Parma and Helmut Auer).
- Increased the maximum number of CA system ids to cope with the AlphaCrypt
  CAM's version 3.11 firmware.
- Fixed getting the code setting from the locale (thanks to Matthias Schwarzott).
- Implemented support for Freetype fonts (based on a patch from Alexander Riedel).
  The font names and sizes can be adjusted in the "Setup/OSD" menu.
  Note that VDR now requires freetype fonts to be installed in
  /usr/share/fonts/truetype.
- If the OSD device in use has at least 8bpp bitmap depth and this is also
  used by the current skin, Freetype fonts are displayed "anti-aliased".
  The new setup parameter "OSD/Anti-alias" can be used to turn this off.
- The new function cOsd::SetAntiAliasGranularity() can be used to help the OSD
  in managing the available color palette entries when doing anti-aliasing.
  Skins that use 8bpp bitmaps can call this function with the maximum number
  of colors used, and the maximum number of color combinations. The OSD will
  then evenly split the available palette entries between the various colors
  combinations, so that fonts can be "anti-aliased". By default a total of
  10 colors and 10 combinations is assumed.
- The pixel fonts have been completely removed from the VDR source.
- VDR is now "UTF-8 aware". It handles strings according to the character
  encoding used on the user's system. All internationalization strings and
  incoming SI data are converted to the system encoding.
- Plugins that handle strings need to be aware that on systems with UTF-8
  encoding a "character symbol" may consist of more than a single byte in
  memory. The functions and macros named Utf8...() can be used to handle
  strings without needing to care about the underlying character encoding
  (see tools.h for details).
- Even though the weekdays of repeating timers are presented to the user as UTF-8
  characters in the OSD, the timers.conf file and the SVDRP timer commands still
  use single byte characters ("MTWTFSS") to make sure this information is handled
  correctly between systems with different character encodings.
- Added a missing i18n string for "CAM" in the Turkish OSD texts.
- Improved editing strings that are too long to fit into the editable area.
- Changes to the OSD settings in the "Setup/OSD" menu now immediately take effect
  when the "Ok" key is pressed.

<id>9f42c33ef6793482a5c2515f9a87c13c0d189c60</id>
<content type='text'>
- Added cDevice::HasCi() so that devices with Common Interface can be avoided
  when tuning to an FTA channel, thus preserving the CAM resources even on budget
  DVB cards (suggested by Petri Helin).
- Fixed i18n characters for the Hungarian texts (thanks to Thomas Günther).
- Now using cPipe instead of popen() in cCommand::Execute() to avoid problems
  with open file handles when starting background commands (thanks to Reinhard
  Nissl).
- Removed 'assert(0)' from cDvbSpuDecoder::setTime() (thanks to Marco Schlüßler).
- Fixed a possible crash when loading an invalid XPM file (thanks to Martin Wache).
- Updated satellite names in 'sources.conf' (thanks to Thilo Wunderlich).
- Adapted 'libsi' to DVB-S2 (thanks to Marco Schlüßler).
- Fixed handling error status in cDvbTuner::GetFrontendStatus() (thanks to
  Reinhard Nissl).
- Shutdown handling has been rewritten (thanks to Udo Richter).
- Plugins can now implement the new function WakeupTime() to request VDR to wake
  up at a particular time (thanks to Udo Richter).
- The HUP signal now forces a restart of VDR (thanks to Udo Richter).
- cThread::EmergencyExit() has been replaced by ShutdownHandler.RequestEmergencyExit().
- Several references to "button" in a remote control context have been changed
  to "key" (based on a report from Marko Mäkelä regarding the "Menu button closes"
  text). The "MenuButtonCloses" parameter in 'setup.conf' has therefore been
  renamed to "MenuKeyCloses", accordingly. This will result in an "unknown config
  parameter: MenuButtonCloses" error message in the log file, so you may want to
  remove that entry from your 'setup.conf' file.
- Simplified the error handling in cDvbTuner::GetFrontendStatus() (based on a
  discussion with Reinhard Nissl).
- Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Increased the maximum number of DVB devices to 8 (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- The new Setup parameter "Channel entry timeout" can be used to customize the time
  since the last keypress until a numerically entered channel number is considered
  complete, and the channel is switched (suggested by Helmut Auer). Setting this
  parameter to 0 turns off the automatic channel switching, and the user will
  have to confirm the entry by pressing the "Ok" key.

<id>66ab78a40f5b57e20142a33484e32c785a0c4017</id>
<content type='text'>
- The CAM handling has been refactored. Instead of a cCiHandler per device there
  is now an abstract cCiAdapter and a cCamSlot. This allows each slot to be
  accessed individually.
- The general 15 seconds workaround time before opening the CAM menu has been
  removed. If the CAM menu doesn't open within a timeout, the enter menu command
  is now sent again.
- If a CAM is reset or pulled and reinserted, it now automatically starts
  decrypting the current channel again.
- The Setup/CAM menu now dynamically refreshes its items and displays whether
  a CAM is present or ready. The 'Reset' function no longer leaves the menu.
- The CAM menu will now be openend when pressing the Ok key on a slot entry.
- The CAM menu now stays within the current menu context and doesn't close and
  reopen the menu every time an option is selected.
- When an encrypted channel is switched to for the first time, VDR now checks
  explicitly whether a CAM can actually decrypt that channel. If there is more
  than one CAM in the system that claims to be able to decrypt the channel,
  they are all tried in turn.
  To make this possible, an encrypted channel needs to be received in Transfer
  Mode when it is switched to for the first time, so that VDR can determine
  whether the TS packets are actually decrypted. Once a channel is known to
  be decrypted by a particular CAM, the next time it is switched to it will
  be shown in normal live viewing mode.
- A cDevice now automatically detaches all cReceiver objects that receive PIDs
  that can't be decrypted with the current CAM. A plugin that attaches a cReceiver
  to a device should therefore watch the receiver's IsAttached() function to
  see if it is still attached to the device.
- The cReceiver constructor no longer takes an 'int Ca' as its first parameter,
  but rather a 'tChannelID ChannelID'. This is necessary for the device to be
  able to determine which CAM a particular channel can be decrypted with. If the
  channel is known to be unencrypted, or a plugin doesn't want to provide the
  channel id for other reasons, an invalid tChannelID() can be given.
- The cThread::Start() function now waits until a previous incarnation of this
  thread has actually stopped. Before this it could happen that a thread's
  Cancel(-1) function was called and immediately after that it was started again,
  but the Start() function still found it to be 'active'.
- The parameter NeedsDetachReceivers in cDevice::GetDevice(const cChannel *Channel, ...)
  has been removed. A call to this function will automatically detach all receivers
  from the device if it returns a non-NULL pointer.
- The cTimeMs class now accepts an initial timeout value in its constructor.
- A CAM is now explicitly instructed to stop decrypting when switching away from
  an encrypted channel.
- If the CAM in use can decrypt several channels at the same time, VDR can
  now make use if this capability. Whether or not a CAM can decrypt more
  than one channel is determined by sending it an initial empty QUERY command
  and testing whether it replies to it.
- Ca values in the range 0...F in channels.conf can still be used to assign a channel
  to a particular device, but this will no longer work with encrypted channels because
  without valid CA ids VDR can't decide which CAM slot to use. However, since VDR now
  automatically determines which CAM can decrypt which channel, setting fixed
  channel/device relations should no longer be necessary.
  IF AN ENCRYPTED CHANNEL CAN'T BE DECRYPTED AND YOU HAVE A CA VALUE IN THE RANGE
  0...F FOR THAT CHANNEL, SET IT TO 0 (FTA) AND TUNE TO THE CHANNEL AGAIN.

- Fixed initializing 'noapiv' in the Makefile (reported by Ronny Kornexl).
- Fixed extracting APIVERSION to work with older versions of 'sed' (reported by
  Oliver Endriss; thanks also to Udo Richter for a shorter version of the 'sed'
  expression).
- Fixed broken APIVERSION extraction line in 'newplugin' (thanks to Oliver Endriss).
- Fixed entering '0' in a cMenuEditIntItem (reported by Mirko Dölle).
- Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Nino Gerbino).

<id>293ed4027ed3c3c8fd6ef1e8bdd79bfe69193957</id>
<content type='text'>
- Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Fixed a crash when setting the time transponder in the Setup menu, caused by the
  new 'noneString' in cMenuEditChanItem (reported by Thomas Günther).
- Added NULL checks to some strdup() calls in menuitems.c (suggested by Darren
  Salt).
- Removed the unnecessary 'value' member from cMenuEditItem.
- Fixed the initial setting of the time transponder setup parameter (reported
  by Thomas Günther).
- Fixed unnecessary Set() calls in cMenuEditIntItem::ProcessKey().
- Allowing a tolerance for symbol rate values that are off by one (thanks to
  Richard Lithvall).
- Added VBITeletextDescriptorTag, TeletextDescriptorTag, LocalTimeOffsetDescriptorTag
  and PremiereContentTransmissionDescriptor to 'libsi' (thanks to Marco Schlüßler).
- Using geteuid() to check whether VDR is running as user 'root' (suggested by
  Tobias Grimm).
- Added a missing "Key$" in skincurses.c (reported by Darren Salt).
- Reintroduced the log message "deleting plugin: ..." when shutting down VDR (upon
  request by Ville Skyttä, as in the initial patch from Christoph Haubrich).
- Fixed the vdr.1 man page (a single DVB card can record and do live tv).
- The preferred audio language is now automatically selected when starting replay.
- Updated the Danish OSD texts (thanks to Mogens Elneff).
- The new function cPlugin::Active() can be used by a plugin to indicate that it
  is still busy and the system should not shut down or restart (based on a patch
  from Sascha Volkenandt). See PLUGINS.html for details.
- Fixed setting the 'Delta' parameter when calling the shutdown script with
  no active timer (reported by Helge Lenz).
- In order to make sure that plugins are compiled with the same DVB driver header
  files as VDR itself, the definition of DVBDIR has been removed from the VDR
  Makefile. If you are using a driver version that has its header files at a location
  other than /usr/include/linux/dvb, you can define DVBDIR in the Make.config
  file (see also INSTALL). Note that if you already have a Make.config file of your
  own, you should add the lines

  ifdef DVBDIR
  INCLUDES += -I$(DVBDIR)/include
  endif

  to its end, as in the new Make.config.template.
  Any reference to DVBDIR should be removed from all plugins' Makefiles, like this:

- Implemented kNext and kPrev keys (based on a patch from Peter Juszack).

- If a timer is newly created from within the "Schedule" menu, and its event is
  already running or has its start time within the next two minutes, it now goes
  directly into the "Edit timer" menu in order to allow the user to make further
  changes to timer parameters before the actual recording starts (inspired by
  Christian Wieninger's "epgsearch" plugin).
- Added format check to syslog_with_tid().
- Updated the INSTALL file's section about non-VDR files in the video directory
  (since version 1.3.38 disk access is done in a separate thread, so the watchdog
  timer won't hit).
- Changed the behaviour of the "Use small font" setup option to *always* use the small
  font if set to '2' - even if it would have been a fixed font (suggested by Ronny
  Kornexl).
- No longer using characters 0x01 and 0x02 for mapping single quote and slash in
  recording names (thanks to Patrick Fischer for reporting that this was a problem
  with XML). The single quote is not mapped at all, and the slash is interchanged
  with the tilde. Existing recordings will be handled like before, so there is
  no need to actually rename them.
- The cRemote::CallPlugin() function now has a boolean return value that tells
  the caller whether initiating the plugin call was successful (suggested by
  Reinhard Nissl). If it returns false, another plugin call is currently pending
  and the caller should try again later. This also means that the SVDRP command
  PLUG can now return an error code is the call fails.
- The new function cPlugin::MainThreadHook() can be used by plugins to perform
  actions in the context of the main program thread. Use this function with great
  care and only of you absolutely have to! See also PLUGINS.html.

- Fixed handling broken PMT records (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg for pointing out how
  to detect these).
- Added a missing "Button$" for the Timer button and "Key$" in skinclassic.c
  (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Fixed broken entry 'A111.1W' in sources.conf (reported by Luca Olivetti).
- Replaced the obsolete entry 'S21.5E' in the default 'diseqc.conf' with 'S13.0E'
  (reported by Ville Skyttä).
- Fixed learning keys when VDR is already running (thanks to Jurij Retzlaff).
- Fixed handling the system time transponder setting in the Setup/EPG menu, which
  was broken by the min/max fix in cMenuEditIntItem.
- VPS timers now record only events that have exactly the given start time.
  This fix also implements recording several subsequent events that have the
  same VPS time (like a sports event with intermittent news breaks).
- When checking for timers that have entered the "VPS margin", any free devices are
  now used to switch to the needed transponder. This improves cases where more than
  one VPS timer is about to start.
- Fixed handling the VPS margin in case the event's duration is shorter than the
  margin.
- Fixed handling VPS timers in case the primary device needs to switch to the
  timer's transponder.
- Now avoiding the 'actual' device when starting a recording, so that a Transfer
  Mode for live tv isn't interrupted.
- Fixed a typo in skins.h (thanks to Alexander Rieger).
- cSkins::QueueMessage() called from a background thread with an empty message
  now clears all messages that have been previously queued by that thread and have
  not yet beed displayed (thanks to Alexander Rieger).
- Fixed handling the color button texts when switching from the 'Schedule' menu of
  a channel without EPG info to the 'What's on now' menu (reported by Rolf
  Ahrenberg).
- cMenuEditIntItem and cMenuEditChanItem can now be given strings to label the
  minimum and maximum values, and the case that no channel has been selected,
  respectively.
- The initial channel and volume can now be defined in the "Setup/Miscellaneous"
  menu (based on a patch from Thomas Keil).
- When hitting the end of a recording in fast forward mode, VDR no longer switches
  back to normal speed if the recording is already finished (thanks to Reinhard
  Nissl).
- No longer calling cPlugin::ProcessArgs() if VDR is run with the --help or
  --version option, to avoid error messages from plugins (reported by Udo Richter).
- Now checking whether there is any text before calling cStatus::MsgOsdTextItem()
  (reported by Joachim Wilke).

- Fixed setting the audio language codes in 'Transfer-Mode' (reported by Rolf
  Ahrenberg). The actual problem was the call to the Transferring() function in
  cDevice::AttachPlayer() before assigning the player.
- Fixed removing the '-' when entering a channel number where there is no other
  one that fits the input (thanks to Joachim Wilke).
- Fixed the 'libsi' function CharArray::checkSize(), which made a previous workaround
  in libsi/descriptor.c obsolete (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg).
- The "Ok" key in the "Jump" mode of the replay progress display now confirms the
  jump instead of closing the display (thanks to Christoph Haubrich).
- The 'summary' field of a timer definition has been renamed to 'aux', and is now
  only used for external applications to store auxiliary information with a timer,
  which has no meaning whatsoever to VDR itself.
  The contents of the 'aux' field of a timer is copied into the recording's
  'info.vdr' file, using the tag character '@'.
- The description of a recording is now taken exclusively from its related EPG
  data. If an application wants to use a different description it needs to set
  it with SVDRP/PUTE and use table ID 0x00, so that it won't be overwritten (as
  a side effect, however, this also disables VPS for such an event).
- There is no more "Summary" menu when pressing "Ok" in the "Timers" menu.
  The "Ok" key now always opens the "Edit timer" menu.
- The upper 16 bit of a timer's "flags" are no longer treated specially when a timer
  is modified in the "Edit timer" menu. If an external application needs to know if
  a timer was modified, it has to keep a copy of the timer's data and compare that
  to the actual data.
- The new function cRecordingInfo::ChannelID() can be used to retrieve the ID of
  the channel a recording was made from.
- The 'info.vdr' file of a recording now also contains the 'E' and 'V' records of
  the EPG event used when creating it.
- The option "Setup/OSD/Sort timers" has been removed. Timers are always sorted
  by their start time and priority.
- The "Blue" key in the "Timers" menu now displays the EPG info of the event the
  selected timer will record (if available). The "On/Off" function has been shifted
  to the "Red" button. Editing a timer is done by pressing "Ok".
- When determining which event a timer is going to record, all available events
  in the future are now taken into account (no more limit to 4 hours in the
  future). This has been done so that the event info is available in the "Timers"
  menu when pressing the "Blue" button. In order to avoid unnecessary work, each
  timer now has its own timestamp to control whether its schedule has changed
  since the last time its event has been set.
- Fixed setting events to timers in case a non-VPS event has expired.
- There is now a log message "timer ... set to event ..." when defining a timer
  from the EPG menu.
- Lines tagged with '#' in the 'info.vdr' file of a recording are now silently
  ignored when reading that file (suggested by Peter Bieringer). Such lines can
  be used by external tools to store arbitrary information.
- The 'event id' in EPG data has been extended to 32 bit, so that external tools
  can generate ids that don't collide with those from the DVB data stream
  (suggested by Matthias Schniedermeyer).
- The DrawBitmap() function now has a new parameter 'Overlay' that allows a bitmap
  to be drawn with a transparent background (thanks to Alexander Hans).
- Fixed cSchedule::GetFollowingEvent() in case there is currently no present event
  running (thanks to Pekka Mauno).

- Fixed setting the audio language codes in 'Transfer-Mode' (reported by Rolf
  Ahrenberg). The actual problem was the call to the Transferring() function in
  cDevice::AttachPlayer() before assigning the player.
- Fixed removing the '-' when entering a channel number where there is no other
  one that fits the input (thanks to Joachim Wilke).
- Fixed the 'libsi' function CharArray::checkSize(), which made a previous workaround
  in libsi/descriptor.c obsolete (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg).
- The "Ok" key in the "Jump" mode of the replay progress display now confirms the
  jump instead of closing the display (thanks to Christoph Haubrich).
