2006-09-17Version 1.4.2-3vdr-1.4.2-3Klaus Schmidinger
- Added --remove-destination to the 'cp' command for binaries in the Makefiles of the plugins (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - The 'skincurses' plugin now adjusts the size of the OSD to the size of the console window. - Fixed deleting expired VPS timers (under certain conditions a timer could have been deleted before it even started recording). - Updated the Hungarian language texts (thanks to Istvan Koenigsberger and Guido Josten). - Fixed handling video directory updates in case the timestamp of the .update file is in the future (thanks to Petri Hintukainen).
2006-06-04Version 1.4.0-3vdr-1.4.0-3Klaus Schmidinger
- Fixed the PremiereContentTransmissionDescriptor in 'libsi' (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt). - Removed all the compatibility '#if APIVERSNUM...' stuff and instead increased the API version number - plugins will have to be recompiled. - Removed the call to pthread_setschedparam(childTid, SCHED_RR, 0) in thread.c, because it caused a compiler warning with post-2.4 glibc (reported by Ville Skyttä). Since the third parameter has to be non-null to have any effect, the call was presumably a NOP, anyway. - Fixed the 'clean-plugins' target in the Makefile to also remove additional plugin libraries (thanks to Wayne Keer). - Applied the fixes to moving and deleting channels from version 1.4.0-2 to the SVDRP commands MOVC and DELC as well. - Fixed handling the display of the '*' indicator in the "What's on now/next?" menu, so that events that haven't been "seen" in the data stream within 30 seconds won't be shown as "running". - Fixed handling tabbed item display in 'skincurses'. - Increased the column spacing in the "Recordings" menu (was too small for the 'skincurses' plugin). - When the 'skincurses' plugin is loaded, it automatically sets the 'curses' skin as the current one. This doesn't modify the Setup.OSDSkin parameter, so that after using 'skincurses' (for instance for debugging) the previously selected skin will be used again. - Added some log messages when setting the current skin. - Only making a second attempt to set the current skin at startup if the first attempt has failed. - Now switching to non-VPS timers' channels 60 seconds before the timer starts (if a free device is available), to allow for the updating of EPG data and CA descriptors before the actual recording starts.
2006-04-17Version 1.3.47vdr-1.3.47Klaus Schmidinger
- Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Fixed a crash when setting the time transponder in the Setup menu, caused by the new 'noneString' in cMenuEditChanItem (reported by Thomas Günther). - Added NULL checks to some strdup() calls in menuitems.c (suggested by Darren Salt). - Removed the unnecessary 'value' member from cMenuEditItem. - Fixed the initial setting of the time transponder setup parameter (reported by Thomas Günther). - Fixed unnecessary Set() calls in cMenuEditIntItem::ProcessKey(). - Allowing a tolerance for symbol rate values that are off by one (thanks to Richard Lithvall). - Added VBITeletextDescriptorTag, TeletextDescriptorTag, LocalTimeOffsetDescriptorTag and PremiereContentTransmissionDescriptor to 'libsi' (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - Using geteuid() to check whether VDR is running as user 'root' (suggested by Tobias Grimm). - Added a missing "Key$" in skincurses.c (reported by Darren Salt). - Reintroduced the log message "deleting plugin: ..." when shutting down VDR (upon request by Ville Skyttä, as in the initial patch from Christoph Haubrich). - Fixed the vdr.1 man page (a single DVB card can record and do live tv). - The preferred audio language is now automatically selected when starting replay. - Updated the Danish OSD texts (thanks to Mogens Elneff). - The new function cPlugin::Active() can be used by a plugin to indicate that it is still busy and the system should not shut down or restart (based on a patch from Sascha Volkenandt). See PLUGINS.html for details. - Fixed setting the 'Delta' parameter when calling the shutdown script with no active timer (reported by Helge Lenz). - In order to make sure that plugins are compiled with the same DVB driver header files as VDR itself, the definition of DVBDIR has been removed from the VDR Makefile. If you are using a driver version that has its header files at a location other than /usr/include/linux/dvb, you can define DVBDIR in the Make.config file (see also INSTALL). Note that if you already have a Make.config file of your own, you should add the lines ifdef DVBDIR INCLUDES += -I$(DVBDIR)/include endif to its end, as in the new Make.config.template. Any reference to DVBDIR should be removed from all plugins' Makefiles, like this: ------------------------------------------------------------ --- PLUGINS/src/hello/Makefile 2005/11/11 13:20:14 1.10 +++ PLUGINS/src/hello/Makefile 2006/04/15 11:58:46 1.11 @@ -20,7 +20,6 @@ ### The directory environment: -DVBDIR = ../../../../DVB VDRDIR = ../../..

When updating to this version of VDR, please verify that the setting is as you want it to be, because the values have been shifted. - The new APIVERSION (see config.h) now allows existing compiled plugins to be used with newer versions of VDR, as long as there have been no changes to the VDR header files since the last APIVERSION. Existing plugins' Makefiles should have all references to VDRVERSION changed to APIVERSION, like this: ------------------------------------------------------------ --- PLUGINS/src/hello/Makefile 2006/04/15 11:58:46 1.11 +++ PLUGINS/src/hello/Makefile 2006/04/16 09:03:50 1.12 @@ -28,9 +28,9 @@ -include $(VDRDIR)/Make.config -### The version number of VDR (taken from VDR's "config.h"): +### The version number of VDR's plugin API (taken from VDR's "config.h"): -VDRVERSION = $(shell grep 'define VDRVERSION ' $(VDRDIR)/config.h | awk '{ print $$3 }' | sed -e 's/"//g') +APIVERSION = $(shell sed -ne '/define APIVERSION/s/^.*"\(.*\)".*$$/\1/p' $(VDRDIR)/config.h) ### The name of the distribution archive: @@ -67,7 +67,7 @@ libvdr-$(PLUGIN).so: $(OBJS) $(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) -shared $(OBJS) -o $@ - @cp $@ $(LIBDIR)/$@.$(VDRVERSION) + @cp $@ $(LIBDIR)/$@.$(APIVERSION) dist: clean @-rm -rf $(TMPDIR)/$(ARCHIVE) ------------------------------------------------------------ - If a timer is newly created from within the "Schedule" menu, and its event is already running or has its start time within the next two minutes, it now goes directly into the "Edit timer" menu in order to allow the user to make further changes to timer parameters before the actual recording starts (inspired by Christian Wieninger's "epgsearch" plugin). - Added format check to syslog_with_tid(). - Updated the INSTALL file's section about non-VDR files in the video directory (since version 1.3.38 disk access is done in a separate thread, so the watchdog timer won't hit). - Changed the behaviour of the "Use small font" setup option to *always* use the small font if set to '2' - even if it would have been a fixed font (suggested by Ronny Kornexl). - No longer using characters 0x01 and 0x02 for mapping single quote and slash in recording names (thanks to Patrick Fischer for reporting that this was a problem with XML). The single quote is not mapped at all, and the slash is interchanged with the tilde. Existing recordings will be handled like before, so there is no need to actually rename them. - The cRemote::CallPlugin() function now has a boolean return value that tells the caller whether initiating the plugin call was successful (suggested by Reinhard Nissl). If it returns false, another plugin call is currently pending and the caller should try again later. This also means that the SVDRP command PLUG can now return an error code is the call fails. - The new function cPlugin::MainThreadHook() can be used by plugins to perform actions in the context of the main program thread. Use this function with great care and only of you absolutely have to! See also PLUGINS.html.
2005-11-27Version 1.3.37vdr-1.3.37Klaus Schmidinger
- Added compiler options "-fPIC -g" to all plugins (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Fixed initializing the day index when editing the weekday parameter of a repeating timer (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - No longer removing superfluous hyphens in EPG data - would become too language dependent to handle all kinds of exceptions. - Modified switching to Dolby Digital audio in live mode, if the driver and firmware can handle live DD without the need of a Transfer Mode (thanks to Werner Fink). Live DD mode requires a full featured DVB card and a LinuxDVB driver with firmware version 0x2622 or higher. Older versions will use Transfer Mode just like before. - Implemented handling of the "CA PMT Reply" for CAMs (thanks to Marco Schlüßler for figuring out some obscure length bytes in the CA PMT Reply data of AlphaCrypt CAMs). - Some preparations for being able to record several encrypted channels from the same transponder at the same time (or record and view different encrypted channels), provided the CAM in use can handle this. This is work in progress and isn't actively used, yet. - Fixed SetProgress() in the 'skincurses' plugin in case Total is 0 (reported by Stefan Huelswitt). - Added a copy constructor to cString and fixed its assignment operator (thanks to Holger Brunn). - The new function Skins.QueueMessage() can be called from a background thread to queue a message for display. See VDR/skins.h for details. - The SVDRP command MESG uses the new message queueing facility, so MESG commands may now be executed at any time, and the message will be displayed (no more "pending message").
2005-10-03Version 1.3.34vdr-1.3.34Klaus Schmidinger
- Fixed a leftover 'summary.vdr' in vdr.5 (thanks to Peter Bieringer for reporting this one). - Fixed opening recording folders in case the last replayed recording no longer exists (reported by Udo Richter). - Fixed an unjustified "Error while accessing recording!" after deleting a recording from a subfolder. - Fixed handling the '.update' file in case the video directory is not at the default location (reported by Jon Burgess). - Fixed a crash in cConfig::Load() when compiling on the PPC (thanks to Sascha Volkenandt). - Fixed the FATALERRNO macro to check for a non-zero errno value (reported by Marco Schlüßler). - Added a check against MAXOSDAREAS in cOsd::CanHandleAreas() (reported by Udo Richter). - Fixed setting current menu item if the first one is non-selectable. - cOsdItem::cOsdItem() now has a 'Selectable' parameter. - Improved displaying 'sub-title' and 'bottom text' in the CAM menu. - Added status message "Resetting CAM..." for an immediate feedback when the CAM reset has been triggered. - The CAM menu now automatically updates itself in case of a progress display (as used, for instance, when updating the firmware via satellite). - Now skipping some funny characters sent by some CAMs at the beginning of strings. - The CAM menu is now completely closed when pressing the Menu key while inside a sub menu. - Reduced MAX_CONNECT_RETRIES in ci.c to 2 (waiting too long made the whole thing appear hanging). - Added status message "Opening CAM menu..." for an immediate feedback when the CAM menu has been requested. - Speeded up initial opening of the CAM menu. - Fixed handling of menus with no selectable items. - The character 0x8A in CAM menu strings is now mapped to a real newline. - The 'sub-title' and 'bottom text' in the CAM menu can now consist of several lines. - Improved the CAM enquiry menu.
2005-05-29Version 1.3.25vdr-1.3.25Klaus Schmidinger
- Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov). - Some cable providers don't mark short channel names according to the standard, but rather go their own way and use "name>short name". VDR now splits at this character for cable channels (thanks to Gerhard Steiner for reporting this one). - Added a check for Setup.DiSEqC in cDvbDevice::ProvidesTransponder(), otherwise the EPG scan didn't work on systems that don't use DiSEqC (thanks to Michael Reinelt for reporting this one). - Made the Makefile patch friendlier (thanks to Ludwig Nussel). - Made cOsd::isOpen an integer counter to avoid problems with messages when a cOsdObject uses the raw OSD (thanks to Andreas Regel for reporting this one). - Updated the Danish OSD texts (thanks to Mogens Elneff). - The file 'summary.vdr' has been replaced with 'info.vdr' and now contains the information about a recording, in the same format as the events are stored in 'epg.data' (see man vdr(5) for details). Existing summary files can be converted to the new format by running the Perl script 'summary2info.pl', as in summary2info.pl /video (the parameter given has to be the video directory). If there is no 'info.vdr' file for a recording, an attempt is made to read a 'summary.vdr'. - The "Summary" button in the "Recordings" menu has been renamed to "Info", and the page it brings up now shows the recording's information, much like the EPG event page. Therefore it now no longer uses the skin's SetText() function, but rather the SetRecording() function. Skin plugins may need to adjust that function accordingly (see skinsttng.c, for instance). - The SVDRP command LSTR now lists the recording information in the same tagged format as the LSTE command lists the EPG data. - The audio track menu now contains track descriptions when replaying (provided such descriptions were available in the EPG data when the recording was made, and are stored in the info.vdr file). - Avoiding extra blanks at the end of names of instant recordings. - Removed converting byte order on big endian systems from cDvbOsd::Flush(), which, according to Johannes Stezenbach and Paavo Hartikainen, is wrong. - Added cPlayer::DeviceSetVideoDisplayFormat() (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - No longer saving the setup in case of a fatal error, to keep the volume level from being set to a wrong value (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - Fixed a possible hangup when ending a replay session while cIndexFile::CatchUp() is waiting (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - The SVDRP command DELR no longer deletes recordings that are currently being written to by a timer (thanks to Sascha Volkenandt for pointing out this one). - Pressing the "Play" key in live viewing mode now resumes a previous replay session (thanks to Mirko Dölle). - Now dropping EPG events that have a zero start time or duration (thanks to Oliver Endriss). - No longer stopping Transfer Mode or replay immediately when the Power button is pressed (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Moved the NPTL and UTF-8 checks after the version and help output (thanks to Andreas Kool for pointing out that 'vdr --version' failed on an UTF-8 system). - Made tChannelID::operator==() inline for better performance (thanks to Georg Acher). - Introduced cListBase::count for better performance (thanks to Georg Acher). - cEvent no longer stores the channelID directly, but rather has a pointer to the schedule it is in. - Now using hash tables to speed up cSchedule::GetEvent() (partially based on a patch from Georg Acher). - Avoiding unnecessary calls to getLength() in libsi/si.c, and avoiding the '& 0xff' in CRC32::crc32() of libsi/util.c (thanks to Georg Acher). - Speeded up deleting duplicate channels. - Fixed listing recordings with empty episode names in the LSTR command (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt for pointing this out). - Added cThread::SetPriority() and using it in cSectionHandler::Action() to reduce the priority of the section handler threads (as suggested by Georg Acher).
2005-01-09Version 1.3.18vdr-1.3.18Klaus Schmidinger
- Removed an unused variable from cTimer::GetWDayFromMDay() (thanks to Wayne Keer for reporting this one). - Some more changes to the 'childTid' handling in cThread (based on suggestions by Stefan Huelswitt). - Fixed the spelling of 'canceling' (thanks to Wayne Keer for reporting this one). - Re-introduced a sleep to cDvbPlayer::Action() to avoid high CPU load in still picture mode (thanks to Reinhard Nissl for reporting this one). - Fixed a possible race condition in generating the DVB device names (thanks to Rainer Zocholl for reporting this one). - Changed the way PES packets are played to allow replay of AC3 sound over the full featured DVB cards (partially based on a patch from Werner Fink). + The new function cDevice::PlayPes() is now called with the complete PES data stream and calls PlayVideo() and PlayAudio() as necessary. + cDevice::PlayVideo() is now only called with actual video PES packets. + cDevice::PlayAudio() is now called with the actual audio PES packets, which can be either "normal" audio or AC3 data. You need at least firmware version 0x261d to replay AC3 sound over a full featured DVB card. This function now has an 'int' return value. + PlayAudio() of derived cDevice classes shall no longer call the base class function. It shall just play the given data as audio. + cPlayer::PlayVideo() and cPlayer::PlayAudio() are now obsolete and have been replaced with cPlayer::PlayPes(). + All StripAudioPackets() functions are now obsolete. The functionality has been moved into cDevice::PlayPes(), where only the video and audio packets that are actually required will be processed. + All audio track handling is now done by cDevice; cTransfer and cDvbPlayer no longer care about audio tracks. cPlayer, however, still has the virtual hooks for audio track handling in order to allow plugins to implement players that have their own idea about this. + cChannel::[AD]pid[12]() have been replaced with cChannel::[AD]pid(int i) to allow access to all available PIDs. - Escaped the '-' and 'ö' characters in the man pages (thanks to Darren Salt for pointing this out). - Completed the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Sean Carlos). - Fixed setting 'synced' in cRemux when recording radio channels (thanks to Laurence Abbott). - Removed the LOCK_THREAD from the LIRC thread (thanks to Ludwig Nussel). - Fixed genfontfile.c (sometimes the character width was wrong, and the codes were shifted one too far to the left). - Fixed the character width and shifted the codes one to the right in all font files. - Renamed font???.c to font???-iso8859-1.c for symmetry. - Switched the character set to iso8859-15 for English, German and Finnish (thanks to Andreas Brugger for reporting the missing Euro sign in iso8859-1). - Added 'channels.conf.terr' entries for Lübeck (thanks to Stefan Hußfeldt). - Fixed a race condition in starting a thread (thanks to Reinhard Nissl for reporting this one). - Replaced non-threadsafe library functions with their threadsafe versions (thanks to Rainer Zocholl for pointing this out). - Other non-threadsafe functions have been replaced by threadsafe classes that hide the actual buffering. In particular these are: readdir() -> cReadDir readline() -> cReadLine - Several formerly non-threadsafe functions now have a return type of cString: cChannel::ToText() tChannelID::ToString() cEvent::GetDateString() cEvent::GetTimeString() cEvent::GetEndTimeString() cEvent::GetVpsString() cMark::ToText() cTimer::ToText() cSource::ToString() cTimer::PrintDay() cTimer::PrintFirstDay() PrefixVideoFileName() IndexToHMSF() ChannelString() strescape() AddDirectory() itoa() WeekDayName() DayDateTime() When using these functions in a 'const char *' context there is nothing special to consider, except that you can no longer have a pointer to the return value, as in const char *date = DayDateTime(); Although this will compile without error message, the resulting 'date' will not be valid after this line. Use this instead: cString date = DayDateTime(); In a 'const void *' context (as in printf() etc.) the result needs to be dereferenced with a '*', as in printf("%s", *DayDateTime()); to make it a 'const char *'. - Removed delay_ms(), using cCondWait::SleepMs() instead. - Replaced time_ms() with a threadsafe and non-overflowing cTimeMs (thanks to Rainer Zocholl for pointing out this problem). - Added cDevice::mutexReceiver to avoid a race condition when attaching/detaching receivers from different threads. - The new remote control button "Audio" can be used to switch between different audio tracks. The "Green" button in the "Main" menu has been changed from "Language" to "Audio", since it now also controls switching between normal and Dolby Digital audio tracks (see MANUAL for details). - The description of the audio tracks is now taken from the "component descriptors" that are broadcast in the EPG data. However (as no big surprise), not all channels actually provide useful data here, so there are now some additional EPG bugfixes, which can be activated by setting the "EPG bugfix level" to 3. - The format of the 'epg.data' files has been extended by the new tag 'X', which contains the stream components of an event (see man vdr(5) for details). - The cStatus class now has the new member function SetAudioTrack(), which can be used to get notified when the audio track has been switched, and the new member function SetAudioChannel() which is called when the audio channel is changed. - Skins need to implement the new cSkinDisplayTrack class to display the audio track menu. - The ST:TNG skin now displays the current audio track description (if any) at the botton left side. - The new setup option "DVB/Audio languages" can be used to control which audio language shall be selected in case a channel broadcasts in different languages (see MANUAL for details). - The "Left" and "Right" keys in the "Audio" menu can be used to switch between the left and right stereo channels in case there are different audio tracks in these channels (see MANUAL for details). - Fixed a possible race condition in cDevice::Action() (thanks to Mattias Grönlund). - Fixed the default quality value when grabbing a JPEG image (thanks to Patrick Gleichmann). - Fixed deleting a menu item in case the next item is not selectable (thanks to Dino Ravnic). - Implemented displaying mandatory subtitles in the SPU decoder (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - The setup option "Recording/Record Dolby Digital" has been renamed and moved to "DVB/Use Dolby Digital". It now controls whether Dolby Digital is recorded and whether an available DD audio track will appear in the "Audio" menu. - Added support for circular polarization (thanks to Jonan Santiago). - Thanks to Werner Fink, Reinhard Nissl, Sascha Volkenandt and Bjørnar Nilsen for their support in testing and fine tuning this version.
2004-06-06Version 1.3.10vdr-1.3.10Klaus Schmidinger
- Fixed some default parameters in 'skincurses'. - Fixed cBitmap::DrawPixel(), which messed with other bitmaps' palettes in case the pixel coordinates were outside this bitmap (thanks to Sascha Volkenandt for reporting this one). - The cBitmap::DrawText() function now doesn't set any background pixels if the given background color is clrTransparent. This allows drawing "transparent" texts (suggested by Sascha Volkenandt). - The cBitmap::SetXpm() function now ignores unused "none" color entries, which some broken graphics tools write into XPM files (suggested by Sascha Volkenandt). - No longer setting lnb voltage if the frontend is not DVB-S (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - Fixed displaying the current channel when switching via the SVDRP command CHAN (thanks to Jürgen Schmitz for reporting this one). - Fixed missing audio after replaying a DVD (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - Added a note about the default assignment of the color keys to MANUAL. - Added a note about NPTL ("Native Posix Thread Library") to the INSTALL file (apparently the "fix" in version 1.3.0 didn't really fix this). - Modified 'libsi' to require callers to state the buffer sizes when getting strings in order to avoid buffer overflows (thanks to Philip Lawatsch for debugging a buffer overflow in eit.c).
2004-05-31Version 1.3.9vdr-1.3.9Klaus Schmidinger
- Completed Croatian language texts (thanks to Drazen Dupor). - New iso8859-2 font to fix the problem with program freezes (thanks to Drazen Dupor). - Implemented a default cRemote::Initialize() that waits 10 seconds for a keypress in order to prevent a "hangup" in case, e.g., the LIRC driver is not loaded (thanks to Helmut Auer). - Updated 'channels.conf.terr' for Hannover (thanks to Peter Waechtler). - cBitmap::DrawBitmap() now also resets the palette if the entire bitmap area is covered (suggested by Sascha Volkenandt). - Fixed setting the title in the replay display of the "Classic VDR" skin in case a shorter title is set after a longer one (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt for reporting this one). - Now using more separate areas in the "ST:TNG Panels" skin to allow a theme to use more independent clrMenu* colors. - Fixed removing the "scanning recordings..." message in case the video directory is empty (thanks to Andreas Regel for reporting this one). - Added SetMessage() functions to the Replay and Channel skin functions. Plugins that implement skins will need to implement these functions. This fixes a missing "Editing process finished" message (thanks to Oliver Endriss for reporting this one). - Fixed the height of the channel display in the "Classic VDR" skin. - Fixed handling descriptor loops in 'libsi', which had sometimes caused invalid CA ids to be added to the channel definitions (thanks to Wayne Keer for reporting this one, and Marcel Wiesweg for fixing it). - Fixed handling colors in cDvbSpuPalette::yuv2rgb() (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - Made some functions of cFont virtual to allow implementing dummy fonts for the 'curses' skin. - The new plugin 'skincurses' re-implements the functionality that was previously available by compiling VDR with DEBUG_OSD. Some things may not yet work as they should, but it's a starting point.
