- 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).

- NOTE: If you are using DVB driver version 0.7 you need to load the dvb.o module with option outstream=0, so your insmod statement should read 'insmod dvb.o outstream=0'. This is currently necessary because 'vdr' still works with AV_PES data. - Video files now have the 'group read' bit set. - Fixed handling errors in 'readstring()'. - Handling SIGPIPE and re-establishing handler after intercepting a signal. - The configuration files are now by default read from the video directory. This can be changed by using the new '-c' option. Make sure you copy your current '*.conf' files to your video directory ('/video' by default), or use "-c ." to get the old behaviour of loading the configuration files from the current directory. - Waiting for input is now handled by a common function, which improves response time on user actions. As a consequence the EIT data may sometimes not be displayed, but this will change later when cEIT runs as a separate thread. - The new SVDRP command 'HITK' (thanks to Guido Fiala!) can be used to 'hit' a remote control key. Establish an SVDRP connection and enter HITK without a parameter for a list of all valid key names. - The new SVDRP command 'GRAB' (thanks to Guido Fiala!) can be used to grab the current frame and save it to a file. - The new SVDRP commands 'OVL*' can be used to control video overlays (thanks to Guido Fiala!). This is mainly for use in the 'kvdr' tool (see the 'kvdr' page at http://www.s.netic.de/gfiala). - If the name of the video directory used with the '-v' option had trailing slashes, the recording file names have been damaged. Trailing slashes are now silently removed. - Fixed a buffer overflow in EIT parsing. - Added a security warning regarding SVDRP to the INSTALL file. - Fixed 'confirm' dialog. - The daemon mode (option '-d') now no longer works with REMOTE=KBD (there is no stdin in daemon mode, so KBD makes no sense - plus it sometimes crashed).

- When scrolling through a list it now moves a full page up or down when the cursor reaches the top or bottom of the menu (thanks to Heino Goldenstein!). - Added missing '#include <sys/stat.h>' to recording.c. - The video directory can now be defined with the command line option -v. - There can now be more than one video directory (in case you have several disks). - Fixed learning key codes for PC keyboard. - New command line option '-l' to set the log level. - Times in timers.conf are now always printed with 4 digits (leading '0'). - Slow forward/back mode (thanks to Guido Fiala!). - The "Up" key in replay mode no longer restarts replay at the very beginning, but rather resumes normal replay mode after a "pause", "forward" or "backward" operation. Use the "Skip -60s" function repeatedly to go back to the beginning of the recording. - Improved reaction on user input in fast/slow forward/back modes. - No more upper limit for the value of 'Pnr'. - Checking if the video card is really a DVB card. - New SVDRP command UPDT to update an existing timer (or add a new one if it doesn't yet exist). - New version of the 'epg2timers' tool (with a modified channel list). - Bugfix in closing window in DEBUG_OSD mode.
