- Fixed some faulty default parameter initializations (thanks to Robert Schiele).
- Added further satellites to 'sources.conf' (thanks to Reinhard Walter Buchner
and Oliver Endriss).
- Updated Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Jaakko Hyvätti).
- Fixed a small glitch when switching channels (thanks to Dennis Noordsij for
reporting this one).
- Fixed handling multiple 'CaCaps' entries in 'setup.conf'.
- Group separators in 'channels.conf' may now be given like ':@201 My Channels',
where '@201' indicates the number to be given to the next channel. This can be
used to create 'gaps' in the channel numbering (see 'man 5 vdr'). BE CAREFUL
TO UPDATE YOUR 'timers.conf' ACCORDINGLY IF INSERTING THIS NEW FEATURE INTO YOUR
'channels.conf' FILE!
- Timers now internally have a pointer to their channel (this is necessary to
handle gaps in channel numbers, and in preparation for unique channel ids).
- Fixed slow reaction on SVDRP input (thanks to Guido Fiala for reporting this one).
- Added KI.KA to channels.conf.cable (thanks to Robert Schiele).
- Frequency values for cable and terrestrial channels in 'channels.conf' can
now be given either in MHz, kHz or Hz. The actual value given will be multiplied
by 1000 until it is larger than 1000000.
- Fixed skipping unavailable channels when zapping downwards.
- Fixed checking the Ca() status of a cDevice (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt).
- Fixed switching audio tracks in 'Transfer Mode' on the primary DVB device
(thanks to Steffen Barszus and Stefan Huelswitt for reporting this one and
helping to fix it).
- Fixed channel switching in case of an active 'Transfer Mode' on the primary
device ('Transfer Mode' is now launched with priority '-1').
- Fixed a ternary expression in dvbspu.c.
- Fixed handling 'Transfer Mode' on single device systems when recording an
encrypted channel (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt).
- Fixed blocking replaying in case an encrypted channel is being recorded on
the primary device.
- Now the name of the remote control is displayed when learning the keys.
- Fixed learning remote control keys in case there is more than one remote
control (thanks to Oliver Endriss for reporting this one).
- Implemented additional dedicated keys for "Play", "Pause", "Stop", "Record",
"FastFwd", "FastRew", "Channel+" and "Channel-". If your remote control supports
any of these keys you can delete your 'remote.conf' file and restart VDR to
go through the key learning procedure again in order to assign these new keys.
See MANUAL for more information.
Authors of player plugins should update their ProcessKey() functions so that
the new player keys have the same functionality as the "Up", "Down", "Left",
"Right" and "Blue" keys, respectively. Note that the existing functionality
of these keys should by all means be retained, since VDR (and any plugins)
shall be fully usable with just the basic set of keys. These new keys are only
for additional comfort in case the remote control in use supports them.
- Implemented new keys to directly access the VDR main menu functions "Schedule",
"Channels", "Timers", "Recordings", "Setup" and "Commands". If your remote
control provides keys you want to assign these functions to, you can delete
your 'remote.cof' file and restart VDR to go through the key learning procedure
again in order to assign these new keys. See MANUAL for more information.
- The new configuration file 'keymacros.conf' can be used to assign macros to
the color buttons in normal viewing mode, as well as to up to 9 user defined
keys. See MANUAL and man vdr(5) for more information. The default 'keymacros.conf'
implements the functionality of the "color button patch".
- Fixed a crash when learning the keys of several remote controls and pressing
buttons of those that have already been learned (thanks to Oliver Endriss for
reporting this one).

- Added cDevice::DeviceNumber() to get the number of a device, not counting any
gaps that might be in the index count.
- Fixed fetching the current/next information to handle cases where the duration
of an event is set wrongly and would last beyond the start time of the next
event.
- Adapted type names to the new HEAD version of the driver (which the previous
NEWSTRUCT branch has been merged into). Note that to use this driver version
you still need to add NEWSTRUCT=1 to the make call when building VDR. You
need a HEAD version of the LinuxDVB driver dated 2002-10-11 or later to compile
VDR with NEWSTRUCT=1.
- Fixed radio channels in channels.conf.cable (thanks to Robert Schiele and Uwe
Scheffler).
- Fixed switching the video format in the Setup/DVB menu (thanks to Uwe Scheffler
for reporting this one).
- Reactivated full handling of second audio PID (even in 'Transfer Mode').
- Fixed a crash when closing down with remote control plugins (thanks to Oliver
Endriss helping to debug this one).
- Commands in the file 'commands.conf' can now have a '?' at the end of their
title, which will result in a confirmation prompt before executing the
command.
- Changed a few leftover 'new char[...]' to MALLOC(char, ...).
- If a command executed from the "Commands" menu doesn't return any output, the
OSD will now be closed automatically.
- The SVDRP command PUTE now triggers an immediate write of the 'epg.data' file
(suggested by Gerhard Steiner).
- The new configuration file 'reccmds.conf' can be used to define commands that
shall be executed from the "Recordings" menu; see MANUAL and 'man vdr(5)' for
details (suggested by Gerhard Steiner).

- Fixed a missing Flush() call in the remote control learning procedure (thanks
to Oliver Endriss).
- Modified channel handling to cover all parameters necessary for DVB-C and DVB-T
(see man vdr(5) for the meaning of the additional parameters stored in the field
previously named 'polarisation'). Thanks to Uwe Scheffler and Andy Carter for testing.
If you have a system with different kinds of DVB cards, like DVB-T and DVB-C,
for instance, there is no more need to distinguish the channels through the
'Ca' parameter in order to assign them to the various DVB cards. This is now
taken care of by the "source" parameter. So a channel marked as "terrestrial",
for example, will only be received on DVB-T cards.
Note that the cChannel class has been moved into a separate file (channels.[ch]),
and that all data members have been made private and are now only accessible
through member functions. You may have to change any plugin code that accesses
cChannel data accordingly.
- The new configuration file 'sources.conf' contains the various signal sources
(satellites, cable and terrestrial) which are used in 'channels.conf' and
'diseqc.conf' (thanks to Reinhard Walter Buchner for adding some satellites to
'sources.conf' and Oliver Endriss and Lauri Tischler for testing and debugging).
- The 'diseqc' parameter in the channel definitions has been redefined to hold the
"source" of the given channel (which can be either a satellite, cable or terrestrial).
For compatibility with channels.conf files from older versions, numeric values in
this parameter will be tolerated, but they have no meaning. If you want to use
DiSEqC you will need to replace these old values with the proper source identifiers
defined in the new configuration file 'sources.conf'. See how this is done in the
'channels.conf' file that comes with the VDR package.
- The new configuration file 'diseqc.conf' can be used to set up the individual
diseqc configuration (see man vdr(5) for a description of the file format).
- The "Edit channel" menu has a new entry "Source:" in which the source of this
channel can be selected (either a satellite, cable or terrestrial). The set of
parameters at the end of this menu will change according to the type of source.
- The "Use DiSEqC" parameter in the "Setup/LNB" menu has been moved to the beginning
of the list and disables the rest of the parameters when set to "yes", since these
are now only meaningful if DiSEqC is _not_ used.
- Removed some unnecessary #includes from eit.c and changed cMenuRecordings::Del()
to cMenuRecordings::Delete() to avoid warnings in gcc-3.2 (thanks to Andreas
Schultz for pointing this out).
- Improved skipping channels that are (currently) not available (thanks to Stefan
Huelswitt).
- Updated channels.conf.terr and channels.conf.cable (thanks to Uwe Scheffler).
- Fixed a bug when pressing the "Blue" button in the main menu without having
displayed it (thanks to Oliver Endriss for reporting this one).

- Fixed an incomplete initialization of the filter parameters in eit.c (thanks
to Jeremy Hall).
- Fixed the 'newplugin' script for use with the NEWSTRUCT driver (thanks to
Andreas Schultz for reporting this one). If you have already created a plugin
directory and Makefile with 'newplugin', please apply the following patch to it:

This is the diff for the 'setup' example that comes with VDR, so your line
numbers may be different.
- Added a missing 'public' keyword in device.h (thanks to Martin Hammerschmid).
- Fixed a race condition when starting 'Transfer Mode'.
- Rearranged the remote control key handling to allow plugins to implement
additional types of remote controls (see PLUGINS.html, section "Remote Control").
The previously used files 'keys.conf' and 'keys-pc.conf' have been replaced
by the file 'remote.conf', which holds the key definitions of all remote controls.
- The LIRC remote control keys are now handled just like the keyboard and RCU keys.
This means that you can use the lircd.conf file as is for your remote control,
without the need of editing it to make the key names the same as used in VDR.
When first starting VDR it will go into the "Learning keys" mode and ask you
to press the various keys. The resulting key assignment will be stored in
the file 'remote.conf'.
Since I have no way of testing the LIRC support, I hope I didn't break it in
the process...
- While learning the remote control keys it is now possible to press the 'Menu'
key to skip the definition of keys that are not available on your particular
RC unit.
- Fixed handling DVD subtitles in the SPU decoder (thanks to Andreas Schultz).
- Avoiding restarts due to 'panic level' when switching channels on the primary
device during EPG scan.

- Removed a superfluous error message from cLockFile::Unlock() (reported by
Helmut Auer).
- Fixed starting a recording of the current channel with only one DVB card
(thanks to Stefan Huelswitt for his help).
- A previous 'Transfer Mode' is now automatically re-started after a replay
stops.
- Only calling cStatus::MsgChannelSwitch() if a channel is actually going to
be switched or has actually been switched successfully (thanks to Stefan
Huelswitt).
- The EPG now drops events from "other" streams that have a duration of 86400
seconds or more (this avoids bogus entries like "PROGRAMMES ALLEMANDS").
- Fixed opening /dev/video in cDvbDevice::GrabImage() in case of NEWSTRUCT
driver (thanks to Andreas Schultz).
- Added a missing StripAudioPackets() to cDvbPlayer::Action() (thanks to
Stefan Huelswitt).
- Added an EPG bugfix for the latest VOX EPG data format.

- Fixed the 'newplugin' script to make it name the target for creating the
distribution package 'dist', as stated in the PLUGINS.html documentation.
If you have already created a plugin source directory and Makefile you may
want to check it and replace the 'package' target with 'dist' if necessary.
- Changed device handling for being able to do simultaneous recording and
replay on the same device (Time Shifting). In order for this to work you need
to use a driver with a firmware version that has this feature implemented.
- cDevice::ProvidesCa() is no longer virtual. The new function
cDevice::ProvidesChannel() is now used to determine whether a device can
receive a given channel, and by default this function returns false. So a
device that is a pure replaying device doesn't need to do anything here.
- Increased the recorder buffer size to 5MB in order to be able to better handle
multiple recordings.
- Implemented cTSBuffer for better handling TS packet buffering in derived
cDevice classes.
- Changed the interface if cDevice::GetTSPacket() to avoid unnecessary copying
of data.
- Removed cDevice::Channel(), since this makes no more sense with devices
receiving multiple channels.
- Switching through channels with the 'Up' and 'Down' keys now skips channels
that are currently not available (for instance because all devices are
recording and these channels are on different transponders).
- Implemented an SPU decoder (thanks to Andreas Schultz).
- Fixed a crash when entering an integer value outside the limits (thanks to
Stefan Huelswitt for reporting this one).
- Added play mode pmAudioOnlyBlack (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt).
|

- Fixed replaying the last few seconds of a recording.
- Added some missing #includes to files in libdtv for gcc 3.2 (thanks to Jürgen
Zimmermann).
- Added cDevice::NewOsd() to allow a derived cDevice class to implement its own
OSD capabilities (thanks to Andreas Schultz).
- Added cPalette::AllColors() for plugins that need to get the color entries of
a cPalette (see osdbase.h).
- The new SVDRP command CLRE can be used to clear the entire EPG data (suggested
by Matthias Schniedermeyer).
- Fixed handling one-shot timers that were already recording and had their start
time changed into the future (thanks to Matthias Schniedermeyer for reporting
this one).

- Adapted VDR to the NEWSTRUCT driver. To use the new driver, compile VDR with
'make NEWSTRUCT=1' (thanks to Holger Wächtler for some valuable advice).
By default it currently still uses the old driver.
- Added some missing #includes (thanks to Martin Hammerschmid).
- Changed the log error message "can't record MPEG1!" to "error in data stream!",
since the mentioning of MPEG1 has irritated many people.
- Consistently using malloc/free and new/delete (thanks to Andreas Schultz).
- Temporarily made cDevice::ProvidesCa() virtual (Andreas Schultz needs this
in his DXR3 plugin).
- cDevice no longer exposes a file handle to cPlayer. A derived cPlayer class
can now call DevicePoll() to see whether the replay device is ready for
further data. A derived cDevice class must implement Poll() and shall
check if any of its file handles is ready for data.
- Implemented several replay modes to allow players that play only audio (thanks
to Stefan Huelswitt).
- Improved cCondVar::Wait() and implemented cCondVar::TimedWait() (thanks to
Stefan Huelswitt).
- VDR no longer gives up if there is no DVB device. It continues to work if
there is at least one device, either a DVB device found by the core VDR code
itself, or a device implemented by a plugin.

- Re-visited the race condition fix in the cDvbPlayer (thanks again to Andreas
Schultz).
- Changed the VFAT handling to allow users who normally use it but have forgotten
to set it when compiling a new version of VDR to at least see their recordings
made with VFAT enabled (thanks to Christian Rienecker).
- Added some missing teletext PIDs (thanks to Joerg Riechardt).
- Fixed PID handling for cReceiver.
- Added a missing #include to ringbuffer.c (thanks to Martin Hammerschmid).
- Now using CC, CFLAGS, CXX and CXXFLAGS in Makefile.
- Changed the cDevice class to allow plugins to implement their own devices (see
PLUGINS.html for details).
