Version 1.1.0vdr-1.1.0
- Begin of the 1.1 development branch. THIS IS NOT A STABLE VERSION! The current stable version for every day use is still the 1.0 branch. - First step towards a universal plugin interface. See the file PLUGINS.html for a detailed description. The man page vdr(1) describes the new options '-L' and '-P' used to load plugins. This first step implements the complete "outer" shell for plugins. The "inner" access to VDR data structures will follow. - The VDR version number is now displayed in the title line of the "Setup" menu.
