Version 0.70vdr-0.70
- VDR now requires driver version 0.8.1 or higher. - Recordings are now saved in PES mode. Note that you now need to install the driver *WITHOUT* 'outstream=0'! This is the default when you 'make insmod' in the DVB/driver directory. Old recordings (in AV_PES mode) can still be replayed (as long as the driver still supports replaying AV_PES files). The only limitation with this is that in fast forward/back mode the picture may be slightly distorted and there may be sound fragments. - The EPG data is now dumped into the file /video/epg.data every ten minutes. Use the Perl script 'epg2html.pl' to convert the raw EPG data into a simple HTML programme listing. - Fixed handling of channel switching with the "Blue" button in the "What's on now/next?" menus. - Fixed saving the MarginStop setup parameter. - Fixed missing initialization in cConfig. - Implemented "On Disk Editing". - There is no more default 'timers.conf' file. - Added Italian language texts (thanks to Alberto Carraro). - Fixed starting a replay session when the program is currently in "transfer mode". - Fixed setting/modifying timers via SVDRP with empty summary fields. - Fixed a problem with recordings that have a single quote character in their name (this is now mapped to 0x01). - Changed the value for Diseqc to '0' in the default 'channels.conf'. - Fixed displaying channels and recording status in the RCU's LED display when a recording is interrupted due to higher priority. - Implemented safe writing of config files (first writes into a temporary file and then renames it). - In case the video data stream is broken the log message will come only every 5 seconds. - The current channel is now saved in the 'setup.conf' file when VDR is cancelled, and will be restored next time it is started (thanks to Deti Fliegl). - The EIT scanning thread is now locked when switching channels to avoid problems. - Encrypted channels can now be selected even without knowing the PNR (however, it is still necessary for the EPG info).
