2003-05-30Version 1.2.0pre1vdr-1.2.0pre1Klaus Schmidinger
- Some corrections to the French OSD texts (thanks to Olivier Jacques). - Fixed some missing commas in i18n.c (thanks to Dimitrios Dimitrakos for reporting this problem). - Some corrections to the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Niko Tarnanen and Rolf Ahrenberg). - Completed the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Antonio Ospite). - Fixed breaking off replay in case the user hits "Play" or "Pause" too soon after going into "Pause live video" mode (thanks to Karim Afifi for reporting ths one). - Some corrections to the Catalanian OSD texts (thanks to Jordi Vilà). - Single event timers are now deleted if the recording they are doing is deleted before the timer ends. - Fixed an uninitialized variable in cDisplayChannel (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt). - Fixed a possible access of invalid file handles in cSIProcessor::Action() (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt).
2003-05-04Version 1.1.30vdr-1.1.30Klaus Schmidinger
- Fixed minimum lifespan of deleted recordings (thanks to Jaakko Hyvätti). - Updated French OSD texts (thanks to Olivier Jacques). - Fixed paging through lists with repeated Left/Right keys. - Fixed setting the PCR-PID in case it is equal to one of the other PIDs (thanks to Oliver Endriss for reporting this one). - Fixed double call to MainMenuAction() of a plugin if invoked via a hotkey (thanks to Kai Moeller for reporting this one). - Fixed handling dedicated keys. - Now turning off live PIDs when replaying. This avoids short spikes from other channels when switching between Transfer Mode channels, and also lets an ongoing replay continue even if a recording is started on the primary device. - The RCU channel display no longer changes when a recording on a different channel starts on the primary device. - Restoring the current channel in case a recording has switched the transponder. If all devices are busy and none of them can provide the current channel, the message "Channel not available!" will be displayed. - Removed the (no longer necessary) 'panic' stuff from cThread. - Added cStatus::OsdItem() to provide the entire list of menu items to a plugin (thanks to Carsten Siebholz). - The red ("Record") and yellow ("Pause") button in the "Main" menu are no longer available when replaying.
2002-11-24Version 1.1.17vdr-1.1.17Klaus Schmidinger
- Added new entries to 'ca.conf'. - Fixed closing unused PID handles (thanks to Stefan Schluenss for reporting this one). - Added more examples to 'diseqc.conf' (thanks to Oliver Endriss). - Fixed disabling multiple recordings on a single DVB card (comment out the definition of the macros DO_REC_AND_PLAY_ON_PRIMARY_DEVICE and DO_MULTIPLE_RECORDINGS in dvbdevice.c). - Plugins can now have their very own OSD setup in the object they return from a call to cPlugin::MainMenuAction(). In order to implement this, the return type of cPlugin::MainMenuAction() had to be changed from (cOsdMenu *) to (cOsdObject *). So in case you are compiling an existing plugin with this version of VDR and you get an error message, simply change cOsdMenu to cOsdObject in the plugin's source for the MainMenuAction() function. Plugin authors who have so far (ab)used the cControl mechanism to implement their own raw OSD should take a look at the new demo plugin 'osddemo'. It implements a very primitive game that shows how a plugin can have its own raw OSD. Especially look into cLineGame and see how it implements the Show() function. See also the chapter on "User interaction" in PLUGINS.html. - Added three new fields to the lines in 'channels.conf': NID, TID and RID. NID and TID are the Network and Transport Stream IDs, respectively. RID is an additional ID that can be used to tell apart channels that would otherwise be indistinguishable. This is typically the case with radio channels, which may have the same NID, TID and SID, but different "radio IDs". This new field is therefore called RID ("radio ID"). Currently NID and TID are not yet used by VDR and should always be 0. The RID is actually used when building the "unique channel ID", so if you have channels in your 'channels.conf' file that cause error messages when loading, you can set the RIDs of these channels to different values. When reading an old 'channels.conf' these new fields will be automatically initialized to 0 and once the file is written back to disk they will be appended to the channel definitions. Thanks to Régis Bossut for pointing out that with some providers the channels can only be distinguished through the RID. - The "unique channel ID" now contains an optional 5th part (the RID). See man vdr(5). - Updated 'channels.conf.cable' and made some channels unique using the new RID (thanks to Andreas Kool for pointing out the problems). - Made some channels unique in 'channels.conf.terr' using the new RID. - Extended the '-l' option to allow logging to LOG_LOCALn (n=0..7) by writing, for instance, '-l 3.7' (suggested by Jürgen Schmidt). - Now deleting stale lock files if they have a time stamp that is outside the window 'now +/- LOCKFILESTALETIME'. This improves things in cases where the system time makes far jumps, so that a lock file might end up with a time stamp that lies in the distant future (thanks to Oliver Endriss).
2002-05-09Version 1.1.0vdr-1.1.0Klaus Schmidinger
- Begin of the 1.1 development branch. THIS IS NOT A STABLE VERSION! The current stable version for every day use is still the 1.0 branch. - First step towards a universal plugin interface. See the file PLUGINS.html for a detailed description. The man page vdr(1) describes the new options '-L' and '-P' used to load plugins. This first step implements the complete "outer" shell for plugins. The "inner" access to VDR data structures will follow. - The VDR version number is now displayed in the title line of the "Setup" menu.
2002-04-07Version 1.0.0vdr-1.0.0Klaus Schmidinger
- Fixed a problem with wrong EPG data in the Schedules menu (thanks to Tobias Kerner, problem was initially reported by Michel Moster, but somehow I had misplaced his message...). - Added Spanish language texts (thanks to Ruben Nunez Francisco). - Fixed resetting the "First day" timer parameter once the timer actually starts recording. - Fixed the still picture workaround in case the progress display is active (thanks to Gerald Raaf). - Fixed a problem with accessing the epg.data file before it is fully written (thanks to Thilo Wunderlich for reporting this one). - Now the EPG scan skips channels that have their 'Ca' parameter explicitly set to an other DVB card (suggested by Sergei Haller). - Fixed a possible hangup when reading a broken epg.data file (thanks to Henning Holtschneider for pointing this one out). - Fixed a bug in the editing process in case a previously edited file with the same name was manually deleted on a system with more than one video directory (thanks to Dirk Wiebel for reporting this one).
2002-04-01Version 1.0.0pre5vdr-1.0.0pre5Klaus Schmidinger
- Fixed restoring CICAM setup values for a fourth DVB card (thanks to Klaus Wolf). - Completed internationalization of OSD texts (thanks to Hannu Savolainen, Arnold Niessen, Paulo Lopes, Jean-Claude Repetto, Alberto Carraro, Matjaz Thaler and Truls Slevigen). - Improved file I/O in case of EINTR, which may occur e.g. with heavy system load (thanks to Werner Fink). - Now writing the title of a recording into the 'summary.vdr' file. - Workaround for displaying still frames with the unpatched LinuxDVB driver (if anybody ever finds out why the unpatched driver doesn't display VDR's still frames, please let me know). - When executing a command from the "Commands" menu, the title of that command is now immediately shown in the status line (followed by "...") to give the user some feedback that the command is being executed, which is especially important if this takes some time. - Fixed scrolling the "Channels" menu in case the cursor ends up on a group delimiter (thanks to Bernd Zierath for helping to debug this one). - Added manual pages vdr(1) and vdr(5) (which made the FORMATS file obsolete). - New command command line option '-V' to display the VDR version. - Adjusting column width for channel numbers in case there are more than 999 channels. - Checking the return value of '...FileRady...' calls in dvbapi.c for better performance under heavy system load. - New 'make' target 'install', which copies the manual pages and executables to their appropriate system locations and creates the /video directory if it doesn't exist yet. - Automatic hotkey assignment is now suppressed if the first entry in commands.conf starts with a digit in the range '1'...'9', followed by a blank. - Fixed a bug in switching back the replay mode display in time shift mode (thanks to Achim Lange for reporting this one). - Fixed a bug in the 'First day' timer parameter for timers that record over midnight. - Added units to Setup parameters. - Changed time entry in the 'Jump' command during replay, so that it is filled up from right to left. - Now using statfs() to determine the amount of free disk space, which avoids the use of an external 'df' command (thanks to Ruben Nunez Francisco). - Fixed skipping the next hit of a repeating timer (thanks to Rainer Zocholl for reporting this one). - Fixed a bug when a timer records over midnight of a day that had a change in Daylight Saving Time. - Added Polish language texts (thanks to Michael Rakowski). - Fixed a bug in parsing group separators in channels.conf (thanks to Henning Holtschneider for reporting this one). - Changed the default 'Ok' key when using the PC keyboard from '5' (in the numeric block) to 'Enter', because the '5' key didn't work on keyboards with the F-keys on top. - Fixed a bug in the EPG bugfix mechanism if the extended description is shorter than 3 characters (thanks to Andreas Schultz).
