- Added new entries to 'ca.conf'. - Fixed closing unused PID handles (thanks to Stefan Schluenss for reporting this one). - Added more examples to 'diseqc.conf' (thanks to Oliver Endriss). - Fixed disabling multiple recordings on a single DVB card (comment out the definition of the macros DO_REC_AND_PLAY_ON_PRIMARY_DEVICE and DO_MULTIPLE_RECORDINGS in dvbdevice.c). - Plugins can now have their very own OSD setup in the object they return from a call to cPlugin::MainMenuAction(). In order to implement this, the return type of cPlugin::MainMenuAction() had to be changed from (cOsdMenu *) to (cOsdObject *). So in case you are compiling an existing plugin with this version of VDR and you get an error message, simply change cOsdMenu to cOsdObject in the plugin's source for the MainMenuAction() function. Plugin authors who have so far (ab)used the cControl mechanism to implement their own raw OSD should take a look at the new demo plugin 'osddemo'. It implements a very primitive game that shows how a plugin can have its own raw OSD. Especially look into cLineGame and see how it implements the Show() function. See also the chapter on "User interaction" in PLUGINS.html. - Added three new fields to the lines in 'channels.conf': NID, TID and RID. NID and TID are the Network and Transport Stream IDs, respectively. RID is an additional ID that can be used to tell apart channels that would otherwise be indistinguishable. This is typically the case with radio channels, which may have the same NID, TID and SID, but different "radio IDs". This new field is therefore called RID ("radio ID"). Currently NID and TID are not yet used by VDR and should always be 0. The RID is actually used when building the "unique channel ID", so if you have channels in your 'channels.conf' file that cause error messages when loading, you can set the RIDs of these channels to different values. When reading an old 'channels.conf' these new fields will be automatically initialized to 0 and once the file is written back to disk they will be appended to the channel definitions. Thanks to Régis Bossut for pointing out that with some providers the channels can only be distinguished through the RID. - The "unique channel ID" now contains an optional 5th part (the RID). See man vdr(5). - Updated 'channels.conf.cable' and made some channels unique using the new RID (thanks to Andreas Kool for pointing out the problems). - Made some channels unique in 'channels.conf.terr' using the new RID. - Extended the '-l' option to allow logging to LOG_LOCALn (n=0..7) by writing, for instance, '-l 3.7' (suggested by Jürgen Schmidt). - Now deleting stale lock files if they have a time stamp that is outside the window 'now +/- LOCKFILESTALETIME'. This improves things in cases where the system time makes far jumps, so that a lock file might end up with a time stamp that lies in the distant future (thanks to Oliver Endriss).

- Added 'Ca' code 201 for 'Cryptoworks, GOD-DIGITAL' to 'ca.conf' (thanks to Bernd Schweikert). - Fixed avoiding the primary DVB interface in case Setup.PrimaryLimit is 0. - Fixed handling CICAM settings if the first one of a DVB card was FTA. - Fixed reacting on changes in CICAM settings (needed to restart VDR before). - The "Blue" button in the "Main" menu now works as "Stop" button if a recording is currently being replayed. - New command line option '-m' to mute audio of the primary DVB device at startup (suggested by Mirko Günther). - The new SVDRP command VOLU can be used to control the audio volume (suggested by Mirko Günther). - Fixed resetting 'mute' state when setting the volume to a non-zero value. - Added log messages when deleting recordings in case the disk runs full while recording. - Fixed closing a pipe (used for replaying Dolby Digital audio), which sometimes left 'zombie' processes behind (thanks to Werner Fink for helping to debug this one). - Now starting the Dolby Digital output thread only if the recording actually contains Dolby Digital audio data (thanks to Werner Fink). - Implemented OSD for Volume and Mute (works only if there is no other OSD activity, but this should be no problem for normal use). - Changed the MANUAL description of the "Conditional Access" setup parameters to reflect the actual "CICAM DVBn m" notation in the "Setup" menu. - The new Setup parameter "Use time from transponder" can be used to define which transponder shall be used to set the system time (see MANUAL for details). If you have been using the SetSystemTime option previously, you now MUST select a channel that you trust to have a reliable time base. - Grouped the Setup parameters into several sub-menus, so that each group of parameters fits on a single screen - unless the height of the OSD has been set to a small value (based on code from Markus Lang). - Changed the title of the "Main" menu to "VDR". - Fixed displaying a system message while the replay mode is being shown. - Physically removing a deleted recording if one with the same name shall be deleted again. - The "Left" and "Right" keys are now used to page up and down in text displays (like the EPG descriptions or the results of commands executed from the "Commands" menu). - Fixed high CPU usage in transfer mode. - Replaced 'killproc' with 'killall' in 'runvdr', since apparently 'killproc' is not available by default on some Linux distributions, whereas 'killall' is. Please check if your system provides 'killall' - if it doesn't, please change this back in 'runvdr' and report this (thanks to Achim Lange). - The "Commands" menu now automatically assigns number keys as hotkeys to the commands. If you have preceeded your commands with digits you may want to remove these from your 'commands.conf' file. - The new Setup item "Restart" can be used to force a complete restart of VDR, including reloading the driver. Note that this can only work if VDR and the driver are wrapped into a mechanism that actually performs this action if VDR exits. The 'runvdr' script can be used for this purpose. - Refined texts of the "Setup" menu.

- Fixed parsing 'E' records in epg2html.pl. - Fixed a deadlock when switching channels via Schedule/Now|Next/Switch (reported by Martin Hammerschmid). - Changed the meaning of the 'Ca' parameter in 'channels.conf'. Each channel can now define which decryption method it needs in order to be accessed. The new configuration file 'ca.conf' contains the defined values, and the default 'channels.conf' has been modifed to contain the new values for 'Premiere World' and 'ORF'. If you use the default 'channels.conf' and have the conditional access hardware to receive encrypted channels, please make sure you copy the file 'ca.conf' into your /video directory (or wherever your configuration files are located) and go into the "Setup" menu and set the CICAM values according to your hardware setup. Currently there are two possible CICAM entries per DVB card, so any card can implement up to two different conditional access modes (besides the default "Free To Air" mode, which is always assumed to be available on any DVB card). - Updated French language texts (thanks to Jean-Claude Repetto).
