- VDR now requires driver version 0.8.1 or higher. - Recordings are now saved in PES mode. Note that you now need to install the driver *WITHOUT* 'outstream=0'! This is the default when you 'make insmod' in the DVB/driver directory. Old recordings (in AV_PES mode) can still be replayed (as long as the driver still supports replaying AV_PES files). The only limitation with this is that in fast forward/back mode the picture may be slightly distorted and there may be sound fragments. - The EPG data is now dumped into the file /video/epg.data every ten minutes. Use the Perl script 'epg2html.pl' to convert the raw EPG data into a simple HTML programme listing. - Fixed handling of channel switching with the "Blue" button in the "What's on now/next?" menus. - Fixed saving the MarginStop setup parameter. - Fixed missing initialization in cConfig. - Implemented "On Disk Editing". - There is no more default 'timers.conf' file. - Added Italian language texts (thanks to Alberto Carraro). - Fixed starting a replay session when the program is currently in "transfer mode". - Fixed setting/modifying timers via SVDRP with empty summary fields. - Fixed a problem with recordings that have a single quote character in their name (this is now mapped to 0x01). - Changed the value for Diseqc to '0' in the default 'channels.conf'. - Fixed displaying channels and recording status in the RCU's LED display when a recording is interrupted due to higher priority. - Implemented safe writing of config files (first writes into a temporary file and then renames it). - In case the video data stream is broken the log message will come only every 5 seconds. - The current channel is now saved in the 'setup.conf' file when VDR is cancelled, and will be restored next time it is started (thanks to Deti Fliegl). - The EIT scanning thread is now locked when switching channels to avoid problems. - Encrypted channels can now be selected even without knowing the PNR (however, it is still necessary for the EPG info).

- The EIT information is now gathered in a separate thread. - The sytem time can now be synchronized to the time broadcast in the DVB data stream. This can be enabled in the "Setup" menu by setting "SetSystemTime" to 1. Note that this works only if VDR is running under a user id that has permisson to set the system time. - The new item "Schedule" in the "Main" menu opens VDR's EPG (thanks to Robert Schneider). See the MANUAL file for a detailed description. - The new setup parameters MarginStart and MarginStop define how long (in minutes) before the official start time of a broadcast VDR shall begin recording, and how long after the official end time it shall stop recording. These are used when a recording is programmed from the "Schedules" menu. - The delay value in the dvb.c.071.diff patch to the driver has been increased to '3', because on some systems the OSD was not displayed correctly. If you are running an already patched version 0.71 driver and encounter problems with the OSD, please make sure the parameter in the ddelay call is '3', not '2'. - Fixed initializing the RCU remote control code (didn't work after switching on the system). - Problematic characters in recording names (which can come from timers that are programmed via the "Schedules" menu) are now replaced by suitable substitutes.

- Modified LIRC interface to better handle repeat function. - Faster OSD by first writing into a bitmap and then sending the entire bitmap to the DVB driver at once (requires the patch 'dvb.c.071.diff' to be applied against the version 0.71 DVB driver file 'dvb.c'). - When switching channels the channel is now immediately displayed, and the current/next information is shown as soon as it becomes available. - No longer displaying the year in the 'Recordings' menu to saves space for the title. - The 'Recordings' menu now displays a '*' to indicate new recordings. - Added the description of the timers.conf file to the FORMATS file (thanks to Bastian Guse). - Displaying as much as possible of the current/next info (dropping characters that would display only partially). - In normal viewing mode the '0' key now toggles between the current and the previous channel.
