2004-02-08Version 1.3.4vdr-1.3.4Klaus Schmidinger
- Fixed handling language codes in case there is no audio or Dolby PID. - Fixed handling CA ids (was broken in 1.3.3). - Fixed the SVDRP command 'STAT DISK' to avoid a 'division by 0' in case the disk is full (thanks to Jens Rosenboom). - Fixed handling bitmap indexes for 256 color mode (thanks to Andreas Regel). - Now handling "linked services" (based on the 'autopid' patch from Andreas Schultz). Linked channels are detected and added to 'channels.conf', but currently they are not yet presented to the user other than being in the normal channel list (this will come later). - Preliminary fix for the "Unknown picture type error" (thanks to Sascha Volkenandt for his support in debugging this one). This may slow down switching between channels on different transponders for now, but a better solution will come later. - Fixed the validity check for channel IDs, because some providers use TIDs with value 0 (thanks to Thomas Bergwinkl). - Enabled switching to a channel even if it has no Vpid or Apid set, because these might be automatically set when tuned to that transponder. - No longer closing the Channels menu after trying to switch to a channel that is currently not available. - Removed the now obsolete CaCaps stuff. The Setup/CICAM menu now displays the actual CAM type as reported by the CAM. The 'ca.conf' file has been stripped down to the values 0..4.
2004-01-04Version 1.3.0vdr-1.3.0Klaus Schmidinger
- Changed thread handling to make it work with NPTL ("Native Posix Thread Library"). Thanks to Jon Burgess, Andreas Schultz, Werner Fink and Stefan Huelswitt. - The cThread class now accepts a 'Description' parameter, which is used to log the beginning and end of the thread, together with its process and thread id. For descriptions that need additional parameters you can use the function cThread::SetDescription(), which accepts 'printf()' like arguments. Existing plugins that use threads should be changed to use this functionality instead of explicit 'dsyslog()' calls inside their Action() function in order to support logging the thread ids. - Added "Slovak Link" and "Czech Link" to 'ca.conf' (thanks to Emil Petersky). However, 'ca.conf' is now pretty much obsolete due to the automatic CA handling. - Mutexes are now created with PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK_NP, which makes the 'lockingTid' stuff obsolete (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt). - Changed font handling to allow language specific character sets. - Adopted the small font character set from the "Elchi" patch (originally provided by Alessio Sangalli). - Greek language texts now use iso8859-7 character set (thanks to Dimitrios Dimitrakos). - Rearranged section data handling, so that the actual data handling can be done separately, even from within plugins. - The EPG data structures have been moved from eit.[hc] to epg.[hc] and have been adapted to the general VDR coding style. Plugins that use these data structures may need to change some function names (which should be obvious). The name 'subtitle' has been changed to 'shortText' to avoid clashes with actual subtitles that are part of a movie. The name 'extendedDescription' has been shortened to 'description'. - Replaced 'libdtv' with 'libsi' (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg), which is thread safe and can be used by multiple section filters simultaneously. - Added 'cRwLock' to 'thread.[hc]'. Note that all plugin Makefiles need to define _GNU_SOURCE for this to work (see the example plugin Makefiles and 'newplugin'). - Fixed a problem with crc32 in SI handling on 64bit systems (thanks to Pedro Miguel Sequeira de Justo Teixeira for reporting this one). - Fixed an alignment problem in CAM access on 64bit systems (thanks to Pedro Miguel Sequeira de Justo Teixeira for reporting this one). - Added 'StreamType' setting to CAM communication, which is important for Aston/SECA CAMs (thanks to Antonino Sergi). - Now the CA descriptors are sent to the CAM in the 'program' or 'ES level' sections, depending on where they are found in the PMT (thanks to Hans-Peter Raschke for reporting this one). This should make SkyCrypt CAMs work. - Now using the 'version number' of EPG events to avoid unnecessary work. - Channel data is now automatically derived from the DVB data stream (inspired by the 'autopid' patch from Andreas Schultz). - The current channel is now automatically re-tuned if the PIDs or other settings change. If a recording is going on on a channel that has a change in its settings, the recording will be stopped and immediately restarted to use the new channel settings. - EPG events now use the complete channel ID with NID, TID and SID. - Channel names in 'channels.conf' can now have a short form, as provided by some tv stations (see man vdr(5)). Currently channels that provide short names in addition to long ones are listed in the OSD as "short,long name", as in "RTL,RTL Television". The short names will be used explicitly later. - The Ca parameter in 'channels.conf' has been extended and now contains all the CA system ids for the given channel. When switching to a channel VDR now tests for a device that provides one of these CA system ids. The devices automatically get their supported ids from the CI handler. - The values in 'ca.conf' are currently without any real meaning. Whether or not a channel with conditional access can be received is now determined automatically by evaluating its CA descriptors and comparing them to the CA system ids provided by the installed CAM. Only the special values 1-16 are used to assign a channel to a particular device. - Increased the maximum number of possible OSD colors to 256. - Limited the line length in the EPG bugfix report, which appears to fix a buffer overflow that caused a crash when cleaning up the EPG data (at 05:00 in the morning).
2003-10-26Version 1.2.6pre4vdr-1.2.6pre4Klaus Schmidinger
- Fixed handling CAM menus in case the CAM connection fails while the menu is being presented (thanks to Thomas v. Keller for reportign this one). - Added missing 'const' to some cChannel member functions (thanks to Torsten Herz).
2003-08-03Version 1.2.2vdr-1.2.2Klaus Schmidinger
- Fixed a bug in channel switching after Left/Right has been pressed (thanks to Michael Walle for reporting this one). - Improved channel switching in case of numerical input by switching as soon as the channel is unique (suggested by Jaakko Hyvätti). - Fixed creating a new channel in the "Channels" menu in case the 'channels.conf' contains ':@nnn' lines with no text (thanks to Guy Roussin for reporting this one). - Changed the behaviour of the '0' key in normal viewing mode so that a channel only qualifies as "previous" if it has been selected for at least 3 seconds (suggested by Thomas Keil). - Now clearing the channel info display when entering numeric keys to switch channels (suggested by Guy Roussin). - Added missing I18N entry for "Ppid" (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Fixed handling the color buttons in the "Edit channel" menu (thanks to Thomas Keil for reporting this one). - Fixed an occasional "Broken pipe" error in SVDRP connections (thanks to Gerhard Steiner for reporting this one). - Fixed checking CA capabilities with the dvb-kernel driver (thanks to Kenneth Aafløy). - Fixed selecting the device, because sometimes an FTA recording terminated a CA recording (thanks to Emil Naepflein). - Fixed a possible crash in case a VFAT file system is used without compiling VDR with VFAT=1 (thanks to Ernst Fürst for reporting this one). - Now the program uses the values of VIDEODIR and PLUGINDIR defined in Makefile or Make.config as defaults (thanks to Steffen Barszus). - Added the usual menu timeout to the CAM menus.
2003-05-25Version 1.1.33vdr-1.1.33Klaus Schmidinger
- Modified handling of audio packets in cDvbPlayer for better sync with external AC3 replay (thanks to Werner Fink). - Fixed a memory leak in cNonBlockingFileReader (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt). - Completed the French OSD texts (thanks to Gregoire Favre). - Completed the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Niko Tarnanen and Rolf Ahrenberg). - Fixed I/O handling in case an explicit controlling terminal is given (thanks to Oliver Endriss). - Fixed resume file handling in case the resume.vdr file can't be written (thanks to Gerhard Steiner). - Fixed cutting a recording if there is only a single editing mark (thanks to Ralf Klueber for reporting this one). - Fixed volume display in case a plugin has its own OSD open (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg). - Fixed channel switching in the EPG scanner on single device systems. - Completed the Swedish OSD texts (thanks to Tomas Prybil). - Now switching to the channel used by the most recently started timer in case the original current channel becomes unavailable due to a recording on a different transponder. If this fails, a channel up/down switch is attempted as a fallback solution (thanks to Lauri Tischler for reporting this one, and to Hermann Gausterer for suggesting to switch to the recording channel). - Fixed cReplayControl::Show() to avoid a compiler warning in g++ 3.2.3 (thanks to Jan Ekholm for reporting this one). - Completed the Slovenian OSD texts (thanks to Matjaz Thaler). - Changed the DEFAULTPRIORITY in device.c to -1, so that the primary device will be used for FTA recordings in case the CAM is connected to a non-primary device (thanks to Reinhard Walter Buchner for reporting this one). - The cCiHandler now closes its file handle when it gets destroyed. - Checking for duplicate recordings with the same file name and disabling the second timer (thanks to Peter Bieringer for reporting this one). - Fixed handling newly created timers in case they are not confirmed with "Ok" (thanks to Gerhard Steiner for reporting this one). - It is now possible to directly delete a timer that is currently recording (thanks to Alexander Damhuis for reporting this one).
2003-04-21Version 1.1.28vdr-1.1.28Klaus Schmidinger
- Using masks in EIT filtering to reduce the number of filters (thanks to Andreas Schultz). - Fixed handling Ca descriptors (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt). - Now only those Ca descriptors are sent to a CAM that are actually understood by that CAM. - Re-enabled CAM communication during replay and on non-Ca channels. This requires a DVB driver with firmware version 2613 or later. - It is now possible to do simultaneous recording and replay with a single DVB card, even with encrypted channels. This requires the use of the Link Layer firmware, version 2613 or higher; the -icam firmware is still limited to live encrypted channels only. Finally we have time shift for encrypted channels on single card systems! - Enhanced detection of pending user I/O from CAMs to avoid sluggish reaction to remote control keypresses. - Implemented "pause live video". You can now press "Menu/Yellow" or "Pause" on your remote control while watching live video to start an instant recording of the current programme and immediately start replaying that recording.
2003-04-13Version 1.1.27vdr-1.1.27Klaus Schmidinger
- The CAM is now accessed only if the current channel actually has a non-zero Ca value, and CAM access is completely suppressed during replay, which avoids problems in case the CAM is attached to the primary DVB device. - The "Left" and "Right" buttons now set the cursor to the first or last list item even if the list consist only of a single page, like, for instance, the Main menu (thanks to Oliver Endriss). - Made the log message "OSD window width must be a multiple of 4..." a debug message instead of an error message, so it can be avoided by using a log level less than 3. - Updated Greek language texts (thanks to Dimitrios Dimitrakos). - Fixed faulty behaviour of the "Mute" key in case the channel display is visible (thanks to Florian Bartels for reporting this one and Sascha Volkenandt for helping to fix it). - Modified LOF handling to allow for C-band reception (thanks to Malcolm Caldwell). - Added some missing cAudio handling calls (thanks to Werner Fink). - Replaced the 'for' loops in StripAudioPackets() with memset() calls (thanks to Werner Fink). - Further increased the timeout until an index file is considerd no longer to be written. - Fixed a crash in case the index file can't be accessed any more during replay (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt for reporting this one). - Fixed displaying messages in the status line in case they exceed the OSD width (thanks to Gerhard Steiner for reporting this one). - Avoiding high CPU load in case the connection to LIRC gets lost (thanks to Ludwig Nussel). - Fixed handling repeat function with LIRC (thanks to Ludwig Nussel). - Fixed handling min/max borders when entering integer values (thanks to Andy Grobb for reporting this one). - Implemented a "resume ID" which allows several users to each have their own resume.vdr files (thanks to Martin Hammerschmid). This parameter can be set in the "Setup/Replay" menu (see MANUAL for details). - Now using 'libdtv' version 0.0.5 (thanks to Rolf Hakenes for the new version and Stefan Huelswitt for adapting VDR to it). - If no device with an MPEG decoder can be found at startup, the first device is now used as primary device (just to have some device). - Adjusted some Premiere channels in 'channels.conf' (thanks to Thomas Koch). - Updated 'channels.conf.cable' (thanks to Stefan Hußfeldt). - The 'epg.data' file is now read after all plugins have been started (thanks to Sascha Volkenandt). - The LIRC remote control no longer tries to learn keys if it can't connect to the LIRC daemon (thanks to Ludwig Nussel for reporting this one). The same applies to the RCU remote control in case of errors during startup. - Fixed handling of Ca parameters with values <= MAXDEVICES, which don't indicate an actual encrypted channel (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt for reporting this one).
2003-03-19Version 1.1.26vdr-1.1.26Klaus Schmidinger
- Removed signal handling and usleep(5000) from cDvbOsd::Cmd() (apparently this is no longer necessary with DVB driver 1.0.0pre2 or later). - If the primary device (as defined in setup.conf) doesn't have an MPEG decoder (and thus can't be used as a primary device) VDR now scans all devices at startup and uses the first one (if any) that actually has an MPEG decoder. That way this will also work automatically if the primary device is implemented by a plugin. - Fixed a possible deadlock when using the "Blue" button in the "Schedules" menu to switch to an other channel (thanks to Torsten Herz). - Fixed the EPG bugfix code number for the MAX_USEFUL_SUBTITLE_LENGTH fix (thanks to Torsten Herz for reporting this one). - Modified the EPG scanner to avoid CPU load peaks (thanks to Steffen Becker for reporting this one). - Fixed support for Viaccess CAMs (thanks to Axel Gruber for helping to debug this).
2003-02-16Version 1.1.25vdr-1.1.25Klaus Schmidinger
- Fixed high CPU load during replay (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg for pointing out this one). - Fixed margin handling in cRingBufferLinear. - Now polling the output device in 'Transfer Mode' and retrying to put packets into the ring buffer. - Resetting the CAM slot in case communication breaks down. - Improved keyboard detection (thanks to Werner Fink). - Updated 'channels.conf.terr' (thanks to Andy Carter). - Fixed broken support for raw OSDs of plugins (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg for reporting this one). - Broken CAM connections are now restored automatically.
2003-02-09Version 1.1.24vdr-1.1.24Klaus Schmidinger
- Improved CAM handling (thanks to Reinhard Walter Buchner for a great deal of help in debugging this). It is now possible to insert the CAM in any of the two slots, to insert and remove it while VDR is running and even to have two CAMs inserted. - Turning SI filtering off and on when switching channels. - Timers are now processed even if an OSD menu is open (except for menus that explicitly handle timers).
2003-02-02Version 1.1.23vdr-1.1.23Klaus Schmidinger
- Fixed a new/delete malloc/free mismatch in ringbuffer.c (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt for reporting this one). - Improved CAM handling.
2003-01-26Version 1.1.22vdr-1.1.22Klaus Schmidinger
- Added 'Hrvatska radiotelevizija' and 'RTV Slovenija' to ca.conf (thanks to Paul Gohn). - Implemented actual user input for CAM enquiry menus. - Since disk file systems apparently don't honor the O_NONBLOCK flag to read from a file in non-blocking mode the cDvbPlayer now uses a non blocking file reader class to make sure replay remains smooth even under heavy system load. - Increased the maximum possible packet size in remux.c to avoid corrupted streams with broadcasters that send extremely large PES packets (thanks to Teemu Rantanen). - Added TS error checking to remux.c (thanks to Teemu Rantanen). - Modified cRingBufferLinear to avoid excessive memmove() calls in 'Transfer Mode' and during recordings, which dramatically reduces CPU load. Thanks to Teemu Rantanen for pinpointing the problem with the excessive memmove() calls. - Updated 'channels.conf' (thanks to Achim Lange). - Added/improved Swedish language texts (thanks to Jan Ekholm). - Fixed the description of the "Scroll pages" OSD setup parameter ('yes' and 'no' were mixed up). - Fixed handling the LOG_LOCALn parameters in the -l option (thanks to Dimitrios Dimitrakos). - Changed EIT processing to always read a full section. - Fixed handling user defined CFLAGS in libdtv/libvdr/Makefile (thanks to Clemens Kirchgatterer and Robert Schiele). - Fixed skipping unavailable channels in the EPG scanner.
2003-01-10Version 1.1.21vdr-1.1.21Klaus Schmidinger
- Fixed the 'channels.conf' entries for "Studio Universal" and "Disney Channel". - Fixed handling channels in the "Channels" menu in case there are ':@nnn' group separators without names (thanks to Guy Roussin for reporting this one). - The SVDRP command CHAN now also accepts channel IDs. - Increased the timeout until an index file is considerd no longer to be written (sometimes in time shift with heavy system load the index file was closed too early by the replay thread). - Implemented "Link Layer" based CAM support, which hopefully will solve the problems with CAMs we had in the past. To use this you need the driver version 2002-01-08 or higher (with the new firmware supporting the "Link Layer" protocol). - Added an EPG bugfix that moves the Subtitle data to the Extended Description in case the latter is empty and the Subtitle exceeds some useful length. - Since several channels put very long strings into the Subtitle part of their EPG data, that string is now limited in length when used in a recording's file name.
