- Fixed setting the OSD size in the 'Confirm' interface call (thanks to Deti Fliegl). - Removed the 'read incomplete section...' error message in the EIT processor. - Fixed channel data for "DW TV" (thanks to Axel Gruber). - Added DPID to "PREMIERE MOVIE 1" in channels.conf.cable (thanks to Stephan Schreiber). - Prepared the OSD functions for multiple overlapping windows. - Removed the check to see whether the system time is running linearly. - Improved performance of SVDRP command entry. - Removed EPGBugfixLevel '3' - after more than a year Pro-7 finally managed to broadcast the correct timestamps for EPG events between 0:00 and 6:00! - Fixed failing watchdog timer if program hangs in OSD activities (thanks to Carsten Koch). - No longer requiring 'libncurses' if compiling without DEBUG_OSD=1 and REMOTE=KBD (thanks to Lauri Pesonen). - The "Recordings" menu now displays a hierarchical structure if there are subdirectories for the recordings. This can be controlled through the "RecordingDirs" parameter in the "Setup" menu. See "MANUAL/Replaying a Recording" for details. - Improved speed of setting the Help button texts. - Fixed handling file names that contain single quotes (') or dollar signs ($) in the call to the shutdown command (option '-s') and the recording command (option '-r'). - Improved error handling in the editing process; the resulting file will be deleted if an error occured. - A message is now prompted at the end of the editing process, indicating whether the process succeeded or failed. - Fixed setting the LastActivity timestamp after a shutdown prompt (thanks to Sergei Haller). - A message is now prompted if free disk space becomes low during recording. - The editing process now calls AssertFreeDiskSpace() to remove deleted recordings if the disk becomes full. - The "Main" menu now displays in its title the used disk space (in percent) and the estimated free disk space (in hh:mm), assuming a data rate of 30 MB per minute. - Activating the "Recordings" menu now displays "scanning recordings..." to give the user some feedback in case this takes longer. - Status messages are now displayed centered. - Removed the 'Tools' subdirectory from the VDR archive. All contributed tools can now be found at ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/pub/people/kls/vdr/Tools.

- Fixed 'Transfer Mode' in cases where a non-primary interface was switched to a channel that only the primary interface can receive (which could happen in the EPG scanner). - The EPG scanner now starts with the first channel (it used to start with the second channel). - Reacitvated setting the PNR. - Adapted the frame scanning to the new muxing of the driver. - The new compile time option REMOTE=NONE can be used to compile VDR without any remote control support (for applications where it shall be controlled exclusively via SVDRP). - The new command line option -D can be used to define which DVB interfaces a certain instance of VDR shall use. - The "Left" and "Right" keys are now used to page up and down in lists (thanks to Martin Hammerschmid). Since the "Timers" menu already uses these keys to (de)activate timers, this functionality is not available there. - The "Main" and "Commands" menu now support "hotkeys", which means that if the first non-blank character of a menu item is a digit in the range 1..9, that item can be selected by pressing the respective numeric key on the remote control. - The channel data in 'channels.conf' now contains the teletext PID (thanks to Dave Chapman). Existing files will be read normally (and the teletext PID set to 0), but once they are written back (due to some channel editing) the file will have the new format. - The EPG scanner now scans each transponder only once per cycle. - Deleted recordings are now automatically removed from disk after a while (not only when disk space is being needed for a new recording). - Fixed repeat function in LIRC remote control. - Changed the MAXDVBAPI macro in dvbapi.c to 4 in order to directly support the maximum possible number of DVB cards. - The 'Ca' parameter in the default 'channels.conf' has been changed from '2' to '3' because the VDR prototype now has 3 DVB cards (and currently the CAM module only works if it is inserted into the last DVB card). - The "Now", "Next" and "Schedule" menus now remember the current channel and restore the list when switching between them. - The "Green" button in the "Recordings" menu can now be used to rewind a recording and play it from the very beginning. - Fixed handling ':' in timer filenames and '\n' in timer summaries (see FORMATS). - When removing recordings empty directories are now removed from the video directory. - Added the "schnitt" tools from Matthias Schniedermeyer. - New SVDRP command MESG to display a short message on the OSD. - The Perl script 'svdrpsend.pl' can be used to send SVDRP commands to VDR. - SVDRP can now immediately reuse the same port if VDR is restarted. - SVDRP now has a timeout after which the connection is automatically closed (default is 300 seconds, can be changed in "Setup"). - The compile time switch VFAT can be used to make VDR avoid the ':' character in file names (VFAT can't handle them). Do 'make VFAT=1' to enable this. - Support for DVB-C (thanks to Hans-Peter Raschke and Peter Hofmann). See the INSTALL file for more information about the use of VDR with cable. - Fixed an occasional segfault in the EIT processor. - A value of '0' for the EPGScanTimeout setup parameter now completely turns off scanning for EPG data on both single and multiple card systems. - New setup parameter "PrimaryLimit" that allows to prevent timers from using the primary DVB interface in multi card systems. Default value is 0, which means that every timer may use the primary interface. - The 'active' field of a timer will now be explicitly set to '1' if the user modifies an active timer (see FORMATS for details). - The new command line option -w can be used to activate a watchdog that makes VDR exit in case the main program loop does not respond for more than the given number of seconds. This is mainly useful in combination with the new 'runvdr' script that restarts VDR in case is has exited.

- 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).

- 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.
