Version 0.99pre2vdr-0.99pre2
- Fixed setting the OSD size in the 'Confirm' interface call (thanks to Deti Fliegl). - Removed the 'read incomplete section...' error message in the EIT processor. - Fixed channel data for "DW TV" (thanks to Axel Gruber). - Added DPID to "PREMIERE MOVIE 1" in channels.conf.cable (thanks to Stephan Schreiber). - Prepared the OSD functions for multiple overlapping windows. - Removed the check to see whether the system time is running linearly. - Improved performance of SVDRP command entry. - Removed EPGBugfixLevel '3' - after more than a year Pro-7 finally managed to broadcast the correct timestamps for EPG events between 0:00 and 6:00! - Fixed failing watchdog timer if program hangs in OSD activities (thanks to Carsten Koch). - No longer requiring 'libncurses' if compiling without DEBUG_OSD=1 and REMOTE=KBD (thanks to Lauri Pesonen). - The "Recordings" menu now displays a hierarchical structure if there are subdirectories for the recordings. This can be controlled through the "RecordingDirs" parameter in the "Setup" menu. See "MANUAL/Replaying a Recording" for details. - Improved speed of setting the Help button texts. - Fixed handling file names that contain single quotes (') or dollar signs ($) in the call to the shutdown command (option '-s') and the recording command (option '-r'). - Improved error handling in the editing process; the resulting file will be deleted if an error occured. - A message is now prompted at the end of the editing process, indicating whether the process succeeded or failed. - Fixed setting the LastActivity timestamp after a shutdown prompt (thanks to Sergei Haller). - A message is now prompted if free disk space becomes low during recording. - The editing process now calls AssertFreeDiskSpace() to remove deleted recordings if the disk becomes full. - The "Main" menu now displays in its title the used disk space (in percent) and the estimated free disk space (in hh:mm), assuming a data rate of 30 MB per minute. - Activating the "Recordings" menu now displays "scanning recordings..." to give the user some feedback in case this takes longer. - Status messages are now displayed centered. - Removed the 'Tools' subdirectory from the VDR archive. All contributed tools can now be found at ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/pub/people/kls/vdr/Tools.

All recordings are listed in the "Recordings" menu. Browse through the
