2005-01-09Version 1.3.18vdr-1.3.18Klaus Schmidinger
- Removed an unused variable from cTimer::GetWDayFromMDay() (thanks to Wayne Keer for reporting this one). - Some more changes to the 'childTid' handling in cThread (based on suggestions by Stefan Huelswitt). - Fixed the spelling of 'canceling' (thanks to Wayne Keer for reporting this one). - Re-introduced a sleep to cDvbPlayer::Action() to avoid high CPU load in still picture mode (thanks to Reinhard Nissl for reporting this one). - Fixed a possible race condition in generating the DVB device names (thanks to Rainer Zocholl for reporting this one). - Changed the way PES packets are played to allow replay of AC3 sound over the full featured DVB cards (partially based on a patch from Werner Fink). + The new function cDevice::PlayPes() is now called with the complete PES data stream and calls PlayVideo() and PlayAudio() as necessary. + cDevice::PlayVideo() is now only called with actual video PES packets. + cDevice::PlayAudio() is now called with the actual audio PES packets, which can be either "normal" audio or AC3 data. You need at least firmware version 0x261d to replay AC3 sound over a full featured DVB card. This function now has an 'int' return value. + PlayAudio() of derived cDevice classes shall no longer call the base class function. It shall just play the given data as audio. + cPlayer::PlayVideo() and cPlayer::PlayAudio() are now obsolete and have been replaced with cPlayer::PlayPes(). + All StripAudioPackets() functions are now obsolete. The functionality has been moved into cDevice::PlayPes(), where only the video and audio packets that are actually required will be processed. + All audio track handling is now done by cDevice; cTransfer and cDvbPlayer no longer care about audio tracks. cPlayer, however, still has the virtual hooks for audio track handling in order to allow plugins to implement players that have their own idea about this. + cChannel::[AD]pid[12]() have been replaced with cChannel::[AD]pid(int i) to allow access to all available PIDs. - Escaped the '-' and 'ö' characters in the man pages (thanks to Darren Salt for pointing this out). - Completed the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Sean Carlos). - Fixed setting 'synced' in cRemux when recording radio channels (thanks to Laurence Abbott). - Removed the LOCK_THREAD from the LIRC thread (thanks to Ludwig Nussel). - Fixed genfontfile.c (sometimes the character width was wrong, and the codes were shifted one too far to the left). - Fixed the character width and shifted the codes one to the right in all font files. - Renamed font???.c to font???-iso8859-1.c for symmetry. - Switched the character set to iso8859-15 for English, German and Finnish (thanks to Andreas Brugger for reporting the missing Euro sign in iso8859-1). - Added 'channels.conf.terr' entries for Lübeck (thanks to Stefan Hußfeldt). - Fixed a race condition in starting a thread (thanks to Reinhard Nissl for reporting this one). - Replaced non-threadsafe library functions with their threadsafe versions (thanks to Rainer Zocholl for pointing this out). - Other non-threadsafe functions have been replaced by threadsafe classes that hide the actual buffering. In particular these are: readdir() -> cReadDir readline() -> cReadLine - Several formerly non-threadsafe functions now have a return type of cString: cChannel::ToText() tChannelID::ToString() cEvent::GetDateString() cEvent::GetTimeString() cEvent::GetEndTimeString() cEvent::GetVpsString() cMark::ToText() cTimer::ToText() cSource::ToString() cTimer::PrintDay() cTimer::PrintFirstDay() PrefixVideoFileName() IndexToHMSF() ChannelString() strescape() AddDirectory() itoa() WeekDayName() DayDateTime() When using these functions in a 'const char *' context there is nothing special to consider, except that you can no longer have a pointer to the return value, as in const char *date = DayDateTime(); Although this will compile without error message, the resulting 'date' will not be valid after this line. Use this instead: cString date = DayDateTime(); In a 'const void *' context (as in printf() etc.) the result needs to be dereferenced with a '*', as in printf("%s", *DayDateTime()); to make it a 'const char *'. - Removed delay_ms(), using cCondWait::SleepMs() instead. - Replaced time_ms() with a threadsafe and non-overflowing cTimeMs (thanks to Rainer Zocholl for pointing out this problem). - Added cDevice::mutexReceiver to avoid a race condition when attaching/detaching receivers from different threads. - The new remote control button "Audio" can be used to switch between different audio tracks. The "Green" button in the "Main" menu has been changed from "Language" to "Audio", since it now also controls switching between normal and Dolby Digital audio tracks (see MANUAL for details). - The description of the audio tracks is now taken from the "component descriptors" that are broadcast in the EPG data. However (as no big surprise), not all channels actually provide useful data here, so there are now some additional EPG bugfixes, which can be activated by setting the "EPG bugfix level" to 3. - The format of the 'epg.data' files has been extended by the new tag 'X', which contains the stream components of an event (see man vdr(5) for details). - The cStatus class now has the new member function SetAudioTrack(), which can be used to get notified when the audio track has been switched, and the new member function SetAudioChannel() which is called when the audio channel is changed. - Skins need to implement the new cSkinDisplayTrack class to display the audio track menu. - The ST:TNG skin now displays the current audio track description (if any) at the botton left side. - The new setup option "DVB/Audio languages" can be used to control which audio language shall be selected in case a channel broadcasts in different languages (see MANUAL for details). - The "Left" and "Right" keys in the "Audio" menu can be used to switch between the left and right stereo channels in case there are different audio tracks in these channels (see MANUAL for details). - Fixed a possible race condition in cDevice::Action() (thanks to Mattias Grönlund). - Fixed the default quality value when grabbing a JPEG image (thanks to Patrick Gleichmann). - Fixed deleting a menu item in case the next item is not selectable (thanks to Dino Ravnic). - Implemented displaying mandatory subtitles in the SPU decoder (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - The setup option "Recording/Record Dolby Digital" has been renamed and moved to "DVB/Use Dolby Digital". It now controls whether Dolby Digital is recorded and whether an available DD audio track will appear in the "Audio" menu. - Added support for circular polarization (thanks to Jonan Santiago). - Thanks to Werner Fink, Reinhard Nissl, Sascha Volkenandt and Bjørnar Nilsen for their support in testing and fine tuning this version.
2002-12-15Version 1.1.20vdr-1.1.20Klaus Schmidinger
- Now checking if there is a connection to the keyboard (thanks to Jaakko Hyvätti) and only creating the KBD remote control if VDR is running in the foreground. - Fixed taking an active SVDRP connection into account when doing shutdown (thanks to Gregoire Favre for reporting this one). - Changed setting of CXX and CXXFLAGS variables in Makefile, so that an externally defined value will be taken if present (suggested by Robert Schiele). Plugin authors should please change the lines CXX = g++ CXXFLAGS = -O2 -Wall -Woverloaded-virtual in their Makefile to CXX ?= g++ CXXFLAGS ?= -O2 -Wall -Woverloaded-virtual - Fixed recording overlapping timers on the same channel in case DO_REC_AND_PLAY_ON_PRIMARY_DEVICE and/or DO_MULTIPLE_RECORDINGS is not defined (thanks to Jaakko Hyvätti). - No longer stopping/restarting the DMX when switching audio channels (thanks to Sven Goethel). - Fixed high CPU load in 'Transfer Mode' (thanks to Oliver Endriss). - If a PC keyboard is used as remote control, the string entry fields in the menus now accept character input directly (however, this works only for keys that are not otherwise defined as remote control keys). Also, plugins can switch the cKbdRemote class into "raw mode", where all keyboard input will be made available through the new 'kKbd' key code and none of it will be processed as normal remote control functions (thanks to Jan Rieger for suggestions and testing). - Fixed deleting characters in string entry fields in 'insert' mode. - Now using "Doxygen" to generate source documentation (thanks to Walter Stroebel for providing an initial 'Doxyfile' configuration and adjusting some comments). See INSTALL for information how to do this. Some function descriptions have already been adapted to Doxygen, more will follow.
2002-12-01Version 1.1.18vdr-1.1.18Klaus Schmidinger
- Fixed missing initialization of 'number' in cChannel (thanks to Martin Hammerschmid for reporting this one). - Fixed a misplaced ')' in the fix about the stale lock files (thanks again to Oliver Endriss for pointing this out - it was my fault). - Group delimiters in the 'channels.conf' file that have no text (like a simple ":" or ":@201") no longer show up in the Channels menu (suggested by Guy Roussin). - Added "Tele 5" to 'channels.conf' (thanks to Georg Hitsch). - Changed the source directory name for plugins from 'SRC' to 'src' (suggested by Clemens Kirchgatterer). - Removed transponders 10788, 11739 and 12266 from 'channels.conf' (apparently they are no longer active). - Deactivated some templates in tools.h in case some plugin needs to use the STL (suggested by Gerald Berwolf). - Timers now accept channel IDs even if the 'source' is 0 (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt for reporting this one). - Now taking an active SVDRP connection into account when doing shutdown or housekeeping (suggested by Emil Naepflein). - Macros in 'keymacros.conf' can now use "@plugin" to directly access the main menu function of a given plugin (see man vdr(5) for details). - The new plugin 'sky' can be used to integrate a Sky Digibox into the VDR system, using a Kfir MPEG2 encoder card (see PLUGINS/src/sky/README for details).
2002-10-27Version 1.1.14vdr-1.1.14Klaus Schmidinger
- 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).
2002-09-29Version 1.1.11vdr-1.1.11Klaus Schmidinger
- 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: ------------------------------------------------------- --- Makefile 2002/06/10 16:24:06 1.4 +++ Makefile 2002/09/17 15:36:36 1.5 @@ -15,7 +15,12 @@ ### The directory environment: +ifdef NEWSTRUCT +DVBDIR = ../../../../DVB/include +DEFINES += -DNEWSTRUCT +else DVBDIR = ../../../../DVB/ost/include +endif VDRDIR = ../../..

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.
