- Fixed handling second audio and Dolby Digital PIDs for encrypted channels
(was broken in version 1.3.37).
- Improved TS/PES conversion to better handle lost TS packets (thanks to
Reinhard Nissl).
- Limited the frequency of log messages from the cRepackers.
- Now using the gettid() syscall to get a thread's pid, so that we get a
useful value on NPTL systems (suggested by Johannes Stezenbach).
- Fixed the RCU remote control handling to avoid problems with NPTL (thanks
to Andreas Share for reporting a lockup with the RCU on NPTL systems).
- When displaying the amount of free disk space, the space consumed by
recordings that have been "deleted" but not yet actually "removed" is now
taken into account (suggested by Christian Vogt).
- Now avoiding unnecessary disk access when checking if there are deleted
recordings that need to be removed (reported by Carsten Koch).
- Fixed handling the DELETEDLIFETIME when removing deleted recordings. Now
a deleted recording is retained at least DELETEDLIFETIME seconds before
actually removing it.
The value of DELETEDLIFETIME has been changed to 300. So after (possibly
inadvertently) deleting a recording, there will be at least 5 minutes
in which it can be recovered (unless a new recording immediately requires
the disk space). The count starts again at 0 every time VDR is started.
- Fixed a possible crash when displaying the "Low disk space!" message from
a background thread (thanks to Christof Steininger).
- Fixed handling OSD areas that have invalid sizes (thanks to Marco Schlüßler).
- Added a mutex to AssertFreeDiskSpace() to make sure calls from foreground
and background threads won't interfere.
- The main menu now dynamically updates its contents in case an instant
recording or replay stops, etc.
- The version number of EPG events is now also stored in the epg.data file
(thanks to Kendy Kutzner).
- EPG events that are no longer in the currently broadcasted data stream are
now automatically deleted.
- Removed an invalid access to Event->schedule in cSchedule::DelEvent().
- Modified cSchedule::Cleanup() (events are always sorted by time).
- Schedules are now cleaned up once every hour (not only at 05:00).
- The "Schedule" and "What's on now/next?" menus are now updated if a timer
is set or modified.
- cTimer no longer has its own 'schedule' member, it rather uses that of the
event it has been set to.
- The "Red" button in the "Schedule", "What's on now/next?" and "Event" menus
now immediately creates a timer for the selected event and marks it with 'T'.
If the event is already marked with 'T', the "Red" button opens the "Edit
timer" menu for that timer.
- Removing deleted recordings is now done in a separate thread.
- Dropped the unused "stop recording on primary interface" stuff.
- Converting a grabbed image to JPEG is now done with the new function
RgbToJpeg() (see tools.h).
- The SVDRP command GRAB now determines the image type (JPEG or PNM) from the
extension (".jpg", ".jpeg" or ".pnm") of the given file name. The explicit
'jpeg' or 'pnm' parameter is still accepted for backward compatibility, but
has no meaning any more.
- The function cDevice::GrabImage() no longer writes the grabbed image to a
file, but rather returns a pointer to the image in memory. The wrapper
function cDevice::GrabImageFile() can be used to write the grabbed image
directly to a file. Plugins that used the old version of cDevice::GrabImage()
need to be adapted to the new interface.
- The new class cBase64Encoder (see tools.h) can be used to encode data in
base64 (thanks to Bob Withers for publishing his Base64 class).
- The SVDRP command GRAB now writes the image data to the SVDRP connection
(encoded in base64) if the given file name consists of only the file
extension (".jpg", ".jpeg" or ".pnm"), or if only "-" is given as file
name (based on a suggestion from Darren Salt).
A simple way of viewing a grabbed image on a remote host is:
svdrpsend.pl -d <hostname> 'grab -' | sed -n -e 's/^216-//p' -e '1ibegin-base64 644 -' -e '$a====' | uudecode | display -
- The new command line option '-g' must be given if the SVDRP command GRAB
shall be allowed to write image files to disk. The parameter to this option
must be the full path name of an existing directory, without any "..", double
'/' or symlinks. By default, or if "-g- is given, grabbing to files is
not allowed any more because of potential security risks.
- Modified the way the SVDRP command GRAB writes the grabbed image to a file
to avoid a security hole (CAN-2005-0071, reported by Javier Fernández-Sanguino
Peña):
+ The file handle is now opened in a way that it won't follow symbolic links
(suggested by Darren Salt).
+ The given file name is now canonicalized, so that it won't contain any
".." or symlinks (suggested by Darren Salt).
+ Grabbing to files is limited to the directory given in the the command
line option '-g'. By default grabbing to files is not allowed any more.
- Updated the Greek OSD texts (thanks to Dimitrios Dimitrakos).
- Changed all "illegal" to "invalid" in error messages (there's nothing "illegal"
in VDR ;-).
- When started as user 'root' VDR now switches to a lesser privileged user id,
keeping the capability to set the system time (based on a patch from Ludwig
Nussel). By default the user id 'vdr' is used, which can be changed through
the new command line option '-u'. Note that for security reasons VDR will no
longer run as user 'root' (unless you explicitly start it with '-u root',
but this is not recommended!). The 'runvdr' script has been changed to
use the '-u' option.
- Changed the API of the functions cStatus::Recording() and cStatus::Replaying(),
so that they can provide the full file name of the recording. Plugins that use
these (or the related cStatus::Msg...() functions) need to be adapted
(suggested by Andreas Brugger).
- The DVB devices now retune (and, if applicable, resend the DiSEqC data) if
the lock is lost (based on a patch from Reinhard Nissl).
- Fixed handling multi byte key sequences in cKbdRemote (based on a patch from
Jürgen Schneider).
- Removed unused variables in skinclassic.c and skinsttng.c (thanks to Marco
Schlüßler).
- Made the static cControl functions thread safe (thanks to Patrick Fischer).
- Fixed initializing pthread_mutexattr_t and pthread_rwlockattr_t to avoid
warnings with g++ 4.1.0 (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- Fixed incrementing the 'state' variables in the repacker classes in remux.c
to avoid warnings with g++ 4.1.0 (reported by Ville Skyttä).
- The Makefile now reports a summary of failed plugins (thanks to Udo Richter).
- The cTimer constructor can now take an optional cChannel (suggested by
Patrick Fischer).
- Fixed setting the main thread id if VDR is running as a daemon.
- Fixed handling TS packets in cTS2PES (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Added cTimer::SetPriority() to set a timer's priority (suggested by Kendy Kutzner).
- Added cMenuEditStrItem::InEditMode() (suggested by Christian Wieninger).
- Now using FE_READ_STATUS to read the current frontend status (suggested by
Holger Wächtler).
- The "Menu" key now behaves consistently. If there is anything on the OSD, it
is closed when the "Menu" key is pressed, and if there is nothing on the OSD,
the "Menu" key opens the main menu (suggested by Luca Olivetti).
- The new option "Setup/OSD/Timeout requested channel info" can be used to turn
off the automatic timeout of the channel display in case it was invoked by
a press of the "Ok" key (suggested by Thiemo Gehrke).
- A message is now given when an instant recording is started (suggested by
Helmut Auer). Actually the code was already there, just commented out - don't
remember why it wasn't active...
- Removed an obsolete "Summary" text from i18n.c and preceded all key definition
texts with "Key$" to avoid duplicates (reported by Lucian Muresan).
- Preceded all button texts with "Button$".
- Removed obsolete "Eject", "Language" and "scanning recordings..." texts.
- Added missing #include "thread.h" to dvbspu.c (reported by Gavin Hamill).
- Disabled the use of "fadvise" in cUnbufferedFile because there have been
several reports that it causes more problems than it solves (suggested by
Petri Hintukainen). If you want to use "fadvise", you can activate the line
//#define USE_FADVISE
in tools.c.
- Removed unused 'offset' member from cOsdItem.
- In the "Channels" menu the numeric keys now position the cursor to the channel
with the given number (see MANUAL, section "Remote Control Keys", note (3) for
details).
- The "Mark/Move" function in the "Channels" menu now also works in the non-numeric
sort modes.
- The default cOsdObject::Show() now automatically calls cOsdMenu::Display() if
this is a menu.
- The new "Info" key brings up information on the currently viewed programme
or recording. For a live programme this is the same as "Schedule/Ok", i.e. the
description of the current EPG event. For a recording this is the same as shown
by the "Info" button in the "Recordings" menu. Plugins that implement players
can overwrite their cControl::GetInfo() function to show their own info (see
PLUGINS.html for details). Pressing the "Info" key again while the info is
displayed will close the OSD. In order to assign this new key to an existing
remote control setup, the remote.conf file needs to be deleted and VDR has
to be restarted to go through the process of learning the remote control keys.
- Any cReceivers still attached to a cDevice when that device switches to a
different transponder are now automatically detached (suggested by Patrick
Fischer).
- The "flags" of a timer are now handled as an unsigned integer value. In order
to do this, the interface of cMenuEditBitItem also had to be changed.
- In string entry fields (like, e.g., the file name of a recording) the characters
can now be entered by pressing the numeric keys, the same way as on a
telephone keypad (based on the "Easy Input" patch from Marcel Schaeben).
- Fixed the "Day" field of the "Edit timer" menu when pressing '0' to switch
from "single shot" to "weekly", followed by the "Right" key (reported by
Andreas Böttger).
- The file 'ca.conf' is obsolete and has been removed.
- Revised all descriptions regarding CICAM.
- Adapted c(Dvb)Device::ProvidesCa() to the dynamic CA handling.
- Added a mutex to synchronize cDevice::PlayPesPacket() and SetCurrentAudioTrack()
(thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Added a SleepMs() in cRecorder::Action() to avoid a busy loop (thanks to Ingo
Schneider).
- Cleaned up some trailing white space.
|
|
- 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").

- Updated 'sources.conf' (thanks to Philip Prindeville).
- Now using daemon() instead of fork() to run VDR in daemon mode (thanks to
Enrico Scholz).
- Fixed a possible endless loop in a menu with no selectable items if
Setup.MenuScrollWrap is true (thanks to Enrico Scholz).
- Making sure no item is displayed as "current" if Up, Down, Left or Right is
pressed in a menu with no selectable items.
- Added '__attribute__' to functions that use printf() like parameters (thanks
to Darren Salt).
- Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Fixed a leftover 'summary.vdr' in vdr.1 (reported by Christoph Hermanns).
- Added more error messages and line numbers when reading EPG data and info.vdr
(thanks to Peter Bieringer).
- Updated the Danish OSD texts (thanks to Mogens Elneff).
- Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov).
- Added missing mutex locks to cCiMenu::Abort() and cCiEnquiry::Abort() (reported
by Marco Schlüßler).
- Fixed lock handling in CAM communication to avoid problems with multiple CAMs
per device or CAMs with more than one smart card.
- Updated the Greek OSD texts (thanks to Dimitrios Dimitrakos).
- Updated the French OSD texts (thanks to Nicolas Huillard).
- Fixed the cFilter example in PLUGINS.html (reported by Patrick Fischer).
- The new class cUnbufferedFile is used for the recording files to avoid
trashing the file system cache (based on a patch by Ralf Müller).
|
|
- 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.
|
|
- Improved responsiveness inside CAM menus.
- Added handling of the 'Close MMI' tag to avoid error log messages with CAMs
that actually use it.
- Now waiting at startup until all DVB devices are ready. This includes having
all CAMs initialized and ready to decrypt, so that no more "channel not
available" happens if VDR is started with the current channel being an encrypted
one, or a timer on such a channel hits right after starting VDR.
- Fixed cVideoRepacker to better handle errors in data (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Fixed cDvbTuner to avoid lockups on NPTL systems (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg).
- Added 'Service' functions to the plugin interface (thanks to Udo Richter).
See PLUGINS.html, section "Custom services" for details.
- Replaced the get/put_unaligned() macros from <asm/unaligned.h> with own inline
functions to avoid problems on platforms that don't provide these (thanks to
David Woodhouse for his help).

- 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.
|

- 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).
|
|
- 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).
|
|
- 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).
|
|
- 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.
|
|
- 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).
|
|
- 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.
|
|
- 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).
|
|
- 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.
