Version 1.0.0pre3vdr-1.0.0pre3
- Fixed parsing 'E' records in epg2html.pl. - Fixed a deadlock when switching channels via Schedule/Now|Next/Switch (reported by Martin Hammerschmid). - Changed the meaning of the 'Ca' parameter in 'channels.conf'. Each channel can now define which decryption method it needs in order to be accessed. The new configuration file 'ca.conf' contains the defined values, and the default 'channels.conf' has been modifed to contain the new values for 'Premiere World' and 'ORF'. If you use the default 'channels.conf' and have the conditional access hardware to receive encrypted channels, please make sure you copy the file 'ca.conf' into your /video directory (or wherever your configuration files are located) and go into the "Setup" menu and set the CICAM values according to your hardware setup. Currently there are two possible CICAM entries per DVB card, so any card can implement up to two different conditional access modes (besides the default "Free To Air" mode, which is always assumed to be available on any DVB card). - Updated French language texts (thanks to Jean-Claude Repetto).
