The channel ID is a human readable + string, made up from several parameters of the channel's definition in the file + 'channels.conf' (see man vdr(5) for details). + In order for the "unique channel ID" to work, all channel definitions now must + be unique with respect to the combination of their Source, Frequency and SID + parameters. You may have to fix your 'channels.conf' manually if there are error + messages in the log file when loading it. BE SURE TO MAKE A BACKUP COPY OF YOUR + 'channels.conf' AND 'timers.conf' FILE BEFORE SWITCHING TO THIS VERSION, AND CHECK + VERY CAREFULLY WHETHER YOUR TIMERS ARE STILL SET TO THE RIGHT CHANNELS! + When reading an existing 'timers.conf', the channels will be identified as before + by their numbers. As soon as this file is written back, the channel numbers will + be replaced by the channel IDs. After that it is possible to manually edit the + 'channels.conf' file and rearrange the channels without breaking the timers. + Note that you can still define new timers manually by using the channel number. + VDR will correctly identify the 'channel' parameter in a timer definition and + use it as a channel number or a channel ID, respectively. Also, the SVDRP commands + that return timer definitions will list them with channel numbers in order to + stay compatible with existing applications. + The channel ID is also used in the 'epg.data' file to allow EPG information from + different sources to be stored, which would previously have been mixed up in case + they were using the same 'service ID'. Note that the contents of an existing + 'epg.data' file from a previous version will be silently ignored, since it doesn't + contain the new channel IDs. When inserting EPG data into VDR via SVDRP you now also + need to use the channel IDs. + Currently the EPG data received from the DVB data stream only uses the 'Source' + and 'Service ID' part of the channel ID. This makes it work for channels with + the same service IDs on different sources (like satellites, cable or terrestrial). + However, it doesn't work yet if the service IDs are not unique within a specific + source. This will be fixed later. +- Added missing SID parameters to 'channels.conf'. Some channels have been removed + since they are apparently no longer broadcasted. +- Removed dropping EPG events from "other" streams that have a duration of 86400 + seconds or more (was introduced in version 1.1.10). This has become obsolete by + the modification in version 1.1.13, which fixed fetching the current/next information + to handle cases where the duration of an event is set wrongly and would last beyond + the start time of the next event. Besides, the change in 1.1.10 broke handling EPG + data for NVOD channels. +- Fixed a compiler warning regarding cMenuChannels::Del() and MenuTimers::Del() hiding + the base class virtual functions. |
