The previously used "Premiere pseudo + standard" (stream=2, type=5) still works, but has apparently been wrongfully used + by broadcasters from the beginning. +- Added missing description of the 'S' channel parameter to vdr.5 (reported by + Reinhard Nissl). +- The SVDRP signon message now indicates the character encoding in use, as in + "220 video SVDRP VideoDiskRecorder 1.7.1; Fri May 2 16:17:10 2008; ISO-8859-1". + This may be useful for instance for external tools that provide EPG data, so that + they can correctly encode the strings. +- No longer calling FcFini() to avoid problems with older (broken) versions of + fontconfig (suggested by Edgar Toernig). +- Removed the compile time option VFAT to allow users of precompiled binary + distributions to have full control over whether or not to use the --vfat option + at runtime (suggested by Michael Nork). +- First step towards switching to TS (Transport Stream) as recording format: + + The new function cDevice::PlayTs() is used to play TS packets. + + The new functions cDevice::PlayTsVideo() and cDevice::PlayTsAudio() + are used to play video and audio TS packets, respectively. + + The new function cAudio::PlayTs() is used to play audio TS packets. + + The new class cPatPmtGenerator is used to generate a PAT/PMT pair that precedes + the TS data in Transfer Mode. + + The new class cPatPmtParser is used by cDevice to parse the PAT/PMT data in a + TS in order to find out which streams it contains. + + The new class cTsToPes is used to convert TS packets to a PES packet. + + cTransfer no longer uses cRemux, and doesn't run a separate thread any more. + It just generates a PAT/PMT and sends all received TS packets to the primary + device's PlayTs(). + + Live subtitle display no longer uses a ring buffer and separate thread. + + cPesAssembler has been removed. Old VDR recordings only contain complete PES + packets. + + Since a TS needs to have a PAT/PMT, which requires the video stream type to + be explicitly given, the format of the VPID field in the channels.conf file + and the SVDRP commands NEWC/MODC/LSTC has been extended. The video stream type + now follows the VPID and optional PPID, separated by an '=' sign. +- Updated the sources.conf file (thanks to Oleg Roitburd). +- Fixed a possible integer overflow in GetAbsTime() (thanks to Alexander Rieger). +- Fixed a problem with calling isyslog() from within the SignalHandler() (thanks + to Udo Richter). +- Replaced the Finnish language code "smi" with "suo" (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). +- Fixed wrong value for TableIdBAT in libsi/si.h (thanks to Winfried Köhler). +- Errors in config files no longer keep VDR from starting. +- Removed unneeded include files <linux/dvb/dmx.h> und <time.h> from remux.h + (reported by Tobias Grimm). + +2008-09-06: Version 1.6.0-2 + +- Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto). +- The SVDRP signon message now indicates the character encoding in use, as in + "220 video SVDRP VideoDiskRecorder 1.7.1; Fri May 2 16:17:10 2008; ISO-8859-1". + This may be useful for instance for external tools that provide EPG data, so that + they can correctly encode the strings. +- No longer calling FcFini() to avoid problems with older (broken) versions of + fontconfig (suggested by Edgar Toernig). +- Updated the sources.conf file (thanks to Oleg Roitburd). +- Fixed a possible integer overflow in GetAbsTime() (thanks to Alexander Rieger). +- Fixed a problem with calling isyslog() from within the SignalHandler() (thanks + to Udo Richter). +- Replaced the Finnish language code "smi" with "suo" (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). +- Fixed wrong value for TableIdBAT in libsi/si.h (thanks to Winfried Köhler). +- Removed unneeded include files <linux/dvb/dmx.h> und <time.h> from remux.h + (reported by Tobias Grimm). |
