- Introduced the new function cPlugin::Initialize(), in order to be able to separate the startup of a plugin into an "early" (Initialize()) and "late" (Start()) phase (suggested by Andreas Schultz). Plugin authors should please read the section about "Getting started" in PLUGINS.html and adapt their code if applicable. - Implemented the CableDeliverySystemDescriptor and TerrestrialDeliverySystemDescriptor in libdtv (thanks to Sven Grothklags and Andreas Schultz). - Fixed keeping live video active in case the primary device doesn't have an MPEG decoder (thanks to Wolfgang Goeller for reporting this one). - Implemented cDevice::ActualDevice(), which returns the actual receiving device in case of 'Transfer Mode', or the primary device otherwise. This may be useful for plugins that want to attach a cReceiver to the device where the current live video is actually coming from. - Added VDRVERSNUM to config.h, which can be used by the preprocessor to check the actual VDR version (suggested by Stefan Huelswitt). - Removed the WaitForPut/WaitForGet stuff from cRingBuffer, since it appears to no longer be necessary due to the implementation of cNonBlockingFileReader in dvbplayer.c. Also, the long timeout in WaitForPut caused problems with cReceivers that use a ring buffer and didn't immediately return from their Receive() function if the buffer runs full (thanks to Sascha Volkenandt for reporting this one). - Fixed handling EPG data where the "extended event descriptor" comes before the "short event" or a "time shifted event" (thanks to Jonan Santiago). - Disabled the "Received stuffing section in EIT" log message. - Updated 'channels.conf.terr' for Berlin (thanks to Juri Haberland). - Avoiding short display of the "Main" menu when pressing the "Recordings" button or the "Back" button during replay. - Further increased the timeout until an index file is considerd no longer to be written. - Implemented separate PausePriority and PauseLifetime parameters for the recordings created when pausing live video (suggested by Alfred Zastrow). - Changed C++ style comments in libdtv into C style to avoid warnings in gcc 3.x (thanks to Andreas Schultz).

- 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.

- 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.
2001-10-21Version 0.97vdr-0.97Klaus Schmidinger
- Implemented a lock file to prevent more than one instance of VDR from removing files from the video directory at the same time. - The new setup parameter SplitEditedFiles can be used to control whether or not the result of an editing process shall be written into separate files. - Fixed handling repeat function when using LIRC (thanks to Matthias Weingart). - The shutdown program (defined with the '-s' option) now also gets the channel number and recording title of the timer (see INSTALL). - New channel data for 'Premiere One', 'Premiere X-Action', 'Fox Kids Türkce' and 'N24' (thanks to Andreas Share, Ulrich Röder, Uwe Scheffler and Simon Bauschulte). Note that if you are using the default 'channels.conf' or 'channels.conf.cable' files you may need to check any exiting timers to see whether they still use the correct channel number. - Fixed the "EPG bugfix" (sometimes had duplicate information in Subtitle and Extended Description). - Fixed checking for valid video device when setting the video mode. - The external command 'sort' is no longer required. VDR now sorts the list of recordings itself, making sure that recordings that stem from repeating timers are sorted chronologically. Sorting is done according to the setting of the current locale, so you may want to make sure LC_COLLATE is set to the desired value (see INSTALL). - Fixed handling 'newline' characters in EPG texts (thanks to Rolf Hakenes for an improved version of his 'libdtv'). Newline characters are always mapped to a single "blank" in VDR, because they would otherwise disturb the Title and Subtitle layout in the channel display (where these are assumed to be single line texts) and would have to be specially handled in the 'epg.data' file and the LSTE command in SVDRP. - Mapping ` ("backtick") characters in EPG texts to ' (single quote). - Fixed timers starting and ending at unexpected times. 'localtime()' was not thread safe, now using localtime_r(). - Removed the "system time seen..." message. - Fixed a bug in the replay mode display when pressing the Green or Yellow button while in trick mode (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt) - Closing all open file descriptors when calling external programs. - The menu timeout now also works when pressing the "Back" button during replay to enter the "Recordings" menu. - Updated 'channels.conf' for the "Bundesliga" channels of Premiere World (thanks to Helmut Schächner). - Fixed reading timers.conf and channels.conf that contain blanks after numeric values. - Fixed handling trick modes near the beginning and end of a recording. - Pressing the "Back" button while replaying a DVD now leads to the DVD menu.

- The "channel not sync'ed" log message now also lists the card number. - Now using the EIT services from 'libdtv' (thanks to Rolf Hakenes), which provides EPG information for NVOD ("Near Video On Demand") channels. - Doing some bug fixing on the EPG data (some tv stations apparently have their own idea on how to fill in the data...). The level up to which EPG bugs are fixed can be controlled with the EPGBugfixLevel parameter in the "Setup" menu (see MANUAL for details, and cEventInfo::FixEpgBugs() in eit.c for the actual implementation). - Fixed broken recordings after a driver buffer overflow. - Fixed the chirping sound after Pause/Play of a DVD (thanks to Andreas Schultz).
