WARNING:
========
This is a developer version. Even though I use it in my productive
environment. I strongly recommend that you only use it under controlled
conditions and for testing and debugging.
This version contains functions to determine the "signal strength"
and "signal quality" through cDevice. If you are using a DVB card that
contains an stb0899 frontend chip (like the TT-budget S2-3200) you may
want to apply the patches from
ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/Driver-Patches
to the LinuxDVB driver source in order to receive useful results from
that frontend.
From the HISTORY file:
- Fixed detecting frames for channels that split frames into several payloads
(reported by Derek Kelly).
- Now initializing Setup.InitialChannel to an empty string to avoid problems in
case there is no setup.conf.
- The start time of an edited recording is now set to the time of the first
editing mark (thanks to Udo Richter).
This obsoletes the CUTTIME patch.
- Direct access to the members start, priority, lifetime, and deleted of cRecording
as well as to position and comment of cMark is now deprecated. Plugin authors
should switch to the new access functions for these members. For now the macro
__RECORDING_H_DEPRECATED_DIRECT_MEMBER_ACCESS is defined in recording.h, which
exposes these members, so that existing plugins will still compile. Comment out
this #define to check whether a particular plugin needs to be modified.
This #define may be removed in a future version.
- The new functions cRecording::NumFrames() and cRecording::LengthInSeconds() return
the number of frames and length (in seconds) of a recording (suggested by Steffen
Barszus).
- The subtitle PIDs are now stored in the channels.conf file as an extension to the
TPID field (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- The new function cDevice::ProvidesEIT() is used to determine whether a device can
provide EIT data and will thus be used in cEITScanner::Process() to receive EIT
data from the channels it can receive (suggested by Rolf Ahrenberg). Note that by
default it is assumed that a device can't provide EIT data, and only the builtin
cDvbDevice returns true from this function.
- The Audio and Subtitles options are now available through the Green and Yellow
keys in the Setup/DVB menu (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). This is mainly for remote
controls that don't have dedicated keys for these functions.
- The SVDRP command HITK now accepts multiple keys (up to 31).
- The Recordings menu now displays the length (in hours:minutes) of each recording
(thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). Note that the "new" indicator has been moved from the
recording time to the length column. This new format is also used by the SVDRP
command LSTR, so in case you have an application that parses the LSTR output,
you will need to adjust it to the new format.
- The dvbsddevice plugin now supports the new option --outputonly, which disables
receiving on SD FF devices and uses the device only for output (thanks to Udo
Richter).
- Fixed detecting frames on radio channels (reported by Chris Mayo).
- Revoked the changes to cFrameDetector that have been introduced in version 1.7.19.
Detecting frames in case the Picture Start Code or Access Unit Delimiter
extends over TS packet boundaries is now done by locally skipping TS packets
in cFrameDetector.

WARNING:
========
This is a developer version. Even though I use it in my productive
environment. I strongly recommend that you only use it under controlled
conditions and for testing and debugging.
This version introduces functions to determine the "signal strength"
and "signal quality" through cDevice. If you are using a DVB card that
contains an stb0899 frontend chip (like the TT-budget S2-3200) you may
want to apply the patches from
ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/Driver-Patches
to the LinuxDVB driver source in order to receive useful results from
that frontend.
Since apparently the various frontend drivers return different maximum
values in their FE_READ_SIGNAL_STRENGTH and FE_READ_SNR functions (some
deliver a value in the range 0x0000...0xFFFF, while others return values
as "dB/10" or "dBm/10" (the latter with an offset to make the value positive,
since the parameter is unsigned), the functions cDvbTuner::GetSignalStrength()
and cDvbTuner::GetSignalQuality() use the device's "subsystem ID" to
map these values into the range 0...100, which is the normalized return
value of these functions.
Take a look at these two functions and maybe remove the comment characters
from the lines
//#define DEBUG_SIGNALSTRENGTH
//#define DEBUG_SIGNALQUALITY
in dvbdevice.c to get some debug output if your device doesn't return any
directly useful values and may have to be added appropriately to the
'switch (subsystemId)' statement.
The channel display of the 'sttng' skin uses these values to implement
a signal strength/quality display.
From the HISTORY file:
- Fixed cString's operator=(const char *String) in case the given string is the
same as the existing one (thanks to Dirk Leber).
- Avoiding a gcc 4.6 compiler error in the skincurses plugin (thanks to Tobias Grimm).
- TsGetPayload() now checks if there actually is a payload in the given TS packet
(reported by Dirk Leber).
- Now sorting the source file names in the call to xgettext, to make sure the results
are not dependent on the sequence of the files.
Plugin authors may want to change the line containing the xgettext call in their
Makefile accordingly by changing "$^" to "`ls $^`".
- The primary device is now only avoided for recording if it is an old SD full
featured card. This is done through the new function cDevice::AvoidRecording().
- Subtitle PIDs are now also decrypted (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Fixed a possible race condition in cDiseqc::Execute() (reported by Marco Göbenich).
The return value of cDiseqcs::Get() is now const, so plugin authors may need to
adjust their code if they use this function.
- The new functions cDevice::SignalStrength() and cDevice::SignalQuality() can be
used to determine the signal strength and quality of a given device (thanks to
Rolf Ahrenberg for some input on how to use BER and UNC values to generate a
"quality" value).
- The 'sttng' skin now displays two colored bars at the bottom of the channel display,
indicating the strength (upper bar) and quality (lower bar) of the received signal.
The number to the left of these bars indicates the actual device the current
channel is being received with.
- Fixed detecting frames in case the Picture Start Code or Access Unit Delimiter
extends over TS packet boundaries (reported by Johan Andersson).
In order to fix this, the semantics of cFrameDetector had to be changed a little.
See cRecorder::Action() and cIndexFileGenerator::Action() on how to use the new
cFrameDetector::NewPayload() function.
- The frame detector now only starts collecting PTS values after it has seen the
first I-frame, otherwise it might get MaxPtsValues values and stop analyzing
even though the incoming data is still garbage (reported by Derek Kelly).
- The info file of a recording is now only overwritten with a new fps value if
that new value is not the default value (thanks to Derek Kelly for reporting a
problem with the fps value being overwritten in case a recording was interrupted
and resumed, and the fps value could not be determined after resuming recording).
- The initial channel is now stored by the channel ID in the setup.conf file, in
order to avoid problems in case channels are reordered or deleted (reported by
Lars Bläser).
- Added support for "content identifier descriptor" and "default authority descriptor"
to 'libsi' (thanks to Dave Pickles).

- Changed -O2 to -O3 in Make.config.template (reported by Matti Lehtimäki).
- Added a missing 'default' case in cPixmapMemory::DrawEllipse().
- Fixed some direct comparisons of double values.
- Fixed detecting frames on channels that broadcast with separate "fields" instead
of complete frames.
- Made updating the editing marks during replay react faster in case the marks
file has just been written (with a patch from Udo Richter).
- Fixed horizontal scaling of subtitles (reported by Reinhard Nissl).
- Stripped the note "The data returned by this function is only used for informational
purposes (if any)" from the description of cDevice::GetVideoSize(). The VideoAspect
is now used to properly scale subtitles.
- Fixed cUnbufferedFile::Seek() in case it is compiled without USE_FADVISE (thanks
to Juergen Lock).
- Fixed the Language header of the Serbian translation file (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- Added anti-aliasing when upscaling bitmaps, which improves the display of SD subtitles
when replayed on an HD OSD (thanks to Reinhard Nissl for his help in debugging).
- Renamed cBitmap::Scale() to Scaled(), because it doesn't modify the bitmap itself,
but rather returns a scaled copy.
- Fixed the description of cReceiver in PLUGINS.html, regarding detaching a receiver
from its device before deleting it (reported by Winfried Köhler). This change in
behavior was introduced in version 1.5.7.
- Fixed scaling subtitles in case the OSD size is exactly the same as the display
size of the subtitles.
- Added a missing initialization to sDvbSpuRect (reported by Sergiu Dotenco).
- Replaced "%lld" and "%llX" print format specifiers with "PRId64" and "PRIX64" to
avoid compiler warnings with gcc 4.5.2 (thanks to Sergiu Dotenco).
On a personal note: I find it a step in the totally wrong direction that there
have been macros introduced to work around this problem in the first place. There
should have been "real" format specifiers defined that address this. These macros
are nothing but an ugly workaround.
- Added Cancel(3) to ~cTrueColorDemo() in the "osddemo" plugin (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Added a missing font deletion in cTrueColorDemo::Action() in the "osddemo" plugin
(thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Fixed a buffer overflow in cFont::Bidi() (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Added HD stream content identifiers to vdr.5 (thanks to Christoph Haubrich).
- Made cRecordingInfo::Read(FILE *f) private to avoid calls to it from outside
cRecordingInfo or cRecording (reported by Mika Laitio).
- The dvbhddevice plugin is now part of the VDR distribution archive (thanks to
Andreas Regel).
- Removed an obsolete local variable in dvbsdffosd.c (thanks to Paul Menzel).
- Fixed a possible NULL pointer dereference in osddemo.c (reported by Paul Menzel).
- Now using pkg-config to get fribidi, freetype and fontconfig cflags and libs (thanks
to Ville Skyttä).
- The Makefile now also installs the include files (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- Added handling of "ANSI/SCTE 57" descriptors (thanks too Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Avoiding an unecessary call to Recordings.ResetResume() (thanks to Reinhard
Nissl).
|
|
- Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov).
- Fixed following symbolic links in RemoveFileOrDir() (cont'd) (thanks to
Steffen Barszus).
- Changed the description of cDevice::GetSTC() to make it mandatory for devices
that can replay.
- Removed the check for positive STC values from cDvbSubtitleConverter::Action().
- Added cString::operator=(const char *String) (suggested by Antti Seppälä).
- Some spelling fixes (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- Passing package name and version to xgettext (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- Made 'dist' target dependent on up to date *.po (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- Added Language and fixed Language-Team header of *.po (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- Updated the Lithuanian OSD texts (thanks to Valdemaras Pipiras).
- Fixed detecting frames on channels that broadcast with 50 or 60 fps.
This avoids artifacts during fast forward/rewind when replaying recordings from such
channels. To fix the index of existing recordings from such channels, just delete the
'index' file of the recording and VDR will generate a new one the next time you play it.
You should also change the line "F 25" to "F 50" in the 'info' file of that recording.
- Added support for "registration descriptor" to 'libsi' and using it in pat.c (thanks
to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Fixed unjustified log entries about changed channel pids (reported by Derek Kelly).
- Added an include of VDR's 'Make.global' to libsi's Makefile (thanks to Rolf
Ahrenberg).
- Removed displaying the "contents" information from the "Classic VDR" and
"ST:TNG Panels" skins, because it is often wrong and nothing but irritating.
- Added typecasts to avoid gcc 4.5 warnings in switch statements on eKeys
variables where additional 'k_...' flags are used.
- Fixed inclusion of <stdarg.h> (thanks to Henning Heinold).
- Changed "frame duration" to "frame rate" in vdr.5 (reported by Tobias Grimm).
- Removing a cRemote from the Remotes list in case its initialization failed (thanks
to Dominik Strasser).
- Added LDFLAGS to the linker calls in the Makefiles (thanks to Joerg Bornkessel and
Paul Menzel).
- Now updating the 'frames per second' data in the list of recordings when a new
recording is started that has a frame rate other than the default.
- The include path to the freetype2 header files is now retrieved via a call to
'pkg-config --cflags freetype2' (suggested by Andreas Oberritter).
- The OSD now has full TrueColor support. There can be several "pixmaps" that can
be overlayed with alpha blending. All existing skins should work out of the box
with the TrueColor OSD - the only exception being cOsd::GetBitmap(). Since the
TrueColor OSD doesn't use bitmaps, this function will return a dummy bitmap, which
may not be what the plugin expects. As long as this bitmap is only used for setting
the palette, there is no problem. However, any other operations on this bitmap will
have no effect. See the description of the cPixmap functions in osd.h for details
about the new functionalities.
The "ST:TNG Panels" skin has been enhanced to automatically use the TrueColor OSD
if available.
The "osddemo" plugin has been extended to show some of the possibilities of the
TrueColor OSD if it is run on a system that actually provides TrueColor support.
Thanks to Reinhard Nissl for some valuable input, help with debugging, and an
implementation of the AlphaBlend() function.
- Updated the Slovakian language texts (thanks to Milan Hrala).
- Added Serbian language texts (thanks to Milan Cvijanovic).
- Fixed reallocating memory in the "pictures" plugin (reported by Paul Menzel, with
input from Oliver Endriss).
- Fixed reallocating memory in cTsToPes::PutTs() (suggested by Oliver Endriss).
- Now checking the result of all realloc() calls.
- Fixed setting up the 'Recordings' menu in case there are several recordings
with exactly the same name (reported by Marcus Hilbrich).
- Setting the audio type of language descriptors to 0x00 in the PAT/PMT generator
(thanks to Anssi Hannula).
- Changed the compiler optimization flag to -O3, which gives quite a performance
boost in the AlphaBlend() function.
- While replaying, the editing marks are now updated every 10 seconds (based on a
patch from Manuel Reimer).
- Now reducing the thread and I/O priority cCuttingThread::Action() to make the
foreground process more responsive (suggested by Frank Neumann).
- Removed checking for minimum line length of 21 characters in the LIRC receiver code
(reported by Gerald Dachs).
- Updated the Romanian OSD texts (thanks to Lucian Muresan).
- Now storing the original display size when handling DVB subtitles (thanks to
Reinhard Nissl).
- The original display size of subtitles is now used to scale them properly when
displaying them on an HD OSD.

- Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto).
- Added missing Dtypes for ATSC (thanks to Alex Lasnier).
- Updated the Portuguese language texts (thanks to Cristiano A. Silva).
- Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Fixed the array size of Atypes in cPatFilter::Process() (thanks to
Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Added locking to the cCutter functions to avoid a crash in case CutRecording()
is called from a plugin (reported by Andreas Mair).
- Fixed DDS detection for HD resolution subtitles (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Fixed following symbolic links in RemoveFileOrDir().
- Added support for languages that are written right-to-left (based on a patch
from Osama Alrawab). See INSTALL for information on how to turn this on.
- Added Arabian language texts (thanks to Osama Alrawab).

- Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto).
- Changed the position of Sirius 4 to S4.8E in sources.conf (thanks to Alexander Gross).
- Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Moved the declaration of cMenuCommands to menu.h, so that plugins can use it.
- Added a note to the MANUAL, saying that adding new transponders only works if the
"EPG scan" is active (suggested by Halim Sahim).
- Improved handling frames at the beginning and end of a recording in cDvbPlayer for
devices with large buffers (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Implemented cDeviceHook to allow plugins more control over which device can
provide which transponder (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Implemented cDevice::GetCurrentlyTunedTransponder() (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Moved strictly necessary Makefile options into Make.global, which is included
by all plugins (thanks to Paul Menzel). The Makefiles of existing plugins should be
modified like this:

- Added device definitions to the diseqc.conf file format, so that certain satellite
positions can be limited to a given list of devices.
This obsoletes the SOURCECAPS patch.
- Keeping subtitles visible when pausing replay (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Fixed adding new transponders in case there is only a single channel in the
channel list (reported by Halim Sahin).
- The file name in the "Timers" menu now shows only the base name of the recording
without the folder path (if any). Otherwise with long folder paths the actual
recording name was not visible at all.
- Updated the Romanian OSD texts (thanks to Lucian Muresan).
- Exported some libsi functions (thanks to Lucian Muresan).
- Improved scalability of the default skins.
- Fixed the German translation of "Folder name must not contain '%c'!" (thanks to
Frank Schmirler).
- Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov).
- Plugins can now define new sources. In order to implement this, the following
changes were made:
+ The transponder parameter string is no longer interpreted by cChannel, but rather
stored as is and used only by the respective device. That way plugins can use a
channel's parameter string to store arbitrary data (see vdr.5).
+ The new class cSourceParam can be used by plugins to define new sources, and to
implement OSD items that will be used in the channel editor for editing the source
specific parameters of a channel (see dvbdevice.c for an example of how this is
done for the default DVB devices).
+ Purely numerical values are no longer accepted in the 'source' parameter of a
channel.
This obsoletes the PLUGINPARAM patch.
- Updated the Lithuanian OSD texts (thanks to Valdemaras Pipiras).
- cSafeFile::Close() now flushes the file (suggested by Stephan Austermühle).
- The option "Setup/DVB/Use Dolby Digital" now only controls whether Dolby Digital
tracks appear in the "Audio" menu. Dolby Digital is always recorded.
This obsoletes the DOLBYINREC patch.
|

- Changed the EVCONTENTMASK_* macros to enums and changed "mask" to "group".
- Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov).
- The "Edit timer" menu can now set the folder for the recording from a list of
folders stored in "folders.conf".
- Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto).
- If svdrphosts.conf contains only the address of the local host, the SVDRP port
is opened only for the local host (thanks to Manuel Reimer).
- Renamed 'runvdr' to 'runvdr.template' and no longer copying it to the BINDIR
in 'make install' (thanks to Martin Dauskardt).
- Added plain text error messages to log entries from cOsd::SetAreas() (suggested
by Rolf Ahrenberg).
- cPalette::ClosestColor() now treats fully transparent colors as "equal"; improved
cDvbSpuBitmap::getMinBpp() (thanks to Matthieu Castet and Johann Friedrichs).
- The new setup option "Miscellaneous/Channels wrap" controls whether the current
channel wraps around the beginning or end of the channel list when zapping (thanks
to Matti Lehtimäki).
- Fixed determining the frame duration on channels where the PTS deltas jitter by
+/-1 around 1800.
- The PCR pid in generated PMTs is now set to the channel's PCR pid again.
- Fixed determining the frame duration on channels where the PTS deltas jitter by
+/-1 around 3600.
- The PCR pid is now recorded for channels where this is different from the video
PID. To facilitate this, the interfaces of cTransfer, cTransferControl, cRecorder
and cReceiver have been modified, so that the PIDs are no longer given in separate
parameters, but rather the whole channel is handed down for processing. The old
constructor of cReceiver is still available, but it is recommended to plugin authors
that they switch to the new interface as soon as possible.
When replaying such a recording, the PCR packets are sent to PlayTsVideo()
- The files "commands.conf" and "reccmd.conf" can now contain nested lists of
commands. See vdr.5 for information about the new file format.
|

- Fixed resetting the file size when regenerating the index file.
- The new function cDevice::PatPmtParser() can be used in derived devices to access
the PAT/PMT of the currently replayed material.
- Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto).
- The PCR pid in generated PMTs is now set to 0x1FFF ("no PCR pid") in
cPatPmtGenerator::GeneratePmt(), because VDR doesn't record the PCR pid.
- Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov).
- The 'sky' plugin is no longer part of the VDR source.
- Improved SPU handling on devices with limited OSD capabilities (thanks to
Matthieu Castet).
- Several code modifications to avoid compiler warnings (thanks to Winfried Köhler).
- Added stream type 11172 AUDIO to cPatPmtParser::ParsePmt() (thanks to Johann
Friedrichs).
- Removed debug output of '-' from cTransfer::Receive().
- Added defines for large files to the 'newplugin' script (reported by Udo Richter).
- Removed the workaround for short channel names of "Kabel Deutschland", because
apparently they now have their data according to the DVB standard (thanks to
Johann Friedrichs).
- Some fixes to dvbspu.[hc] (thanks to Johann Friedrichs).
- Fixed a busy loop when moving editing marks (thanks to Johann Friedrichs).
- Updated sources.conf (thanks to Derek Kelly).
- Modified cCharSetConv so that it can be used to convert from "whatever VDR uses"
to a given code (thanks to Joachim Wilke).
- Channel names containing commas are now handled correctly in channels.conf.
If a channel's short name contains a comma, it is replaced with a '.'.
- cDevice now logs the device number when a new device is created.
- Fixed handling STREAMTYPE_11172_AUDIO in cPatPmtParser::ParsePmt().
- cParsePatPmt now has functions to retrieve the audio, dolby and subtitle pids.
- cPatFilter::Process() now only stores CA descriptors for video and audio pids
(thanks to Francesco Saverio Schiavarelli for reporting a problem with channels
that have some encrypted components that VDR doesn't use).
- cDevice::AddPid() now stores the stream type of the given pid (thanks to Andreas
Regel).
- Added cFont::FontName() and cFont::Size() (thanks to Andreas Regel).
- cPatPmtParser now also stores the audio stream types.
- The support for full featured DVB cards of the TT/FuSi design has been moved
into the new plugin 'dvbsddevice'. On systems that use such a card as their
primary device, this plugin now needs to be loaded when running VDR in order
to view live or recorded video. If the plugin is not loaded, the card will
be treated like a budget DVB card, and there will be no OSD or viewing
capability.
- Fixed handling the "CA PMT" generation (revised a change not mentioned in version
1.7.9's changes, which caused a malfunction with Conax and Viaccess CAMs).
- Fixed stopping subtitle display when switching the primary device (thanks to
Anssi Hannula).
IMPORTANT NOTE TO PLUGIN AUTHORS: a plugin that implements a derived cDevice
class that can replay video must now call the MakePrimaryDevice() function of
its base class.
- Fixed compiler warnings "format not a string literal and no format arguments"
in some syslog calls (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- The new command line options --edit and --genindex can be used to edit a
recording or generate its index without actually starting the entire VDR
(based on a patch from Helmut Auer).
- Improved the description of the transponder parameters in vdr.5 (thanks to
Winfried Köhler).
- Avoiding setting the video stream type to 2 if the vpid is 0 (problem reported
by Arthur Konovalov).
- Implemented handling the "Content Descriptor" (based on a patch from Rolf
Ahrenberg). The 'classic', 'sttng' and 'curses' skins display the textual
representation of the content descriptors as "genre". The epg.data file stores
the genre using the tag character 'G'.
- Implemented handling the "Parental Rating Descriptor" (based on a patch from Rolf
Ahrenberg). The 'classic', 'sttng' and 'curses' skins display the parental
rating (if given) in their event displays. The epg.data file stores
the parental rating using the tag character 'R'.
IMPORTANT NOTE: if VDR doesn't display a parental rating, this does not
necessarily mean that the given programme is suitable for all audiences!
- Rearranged cEvent members to minimize memory waste.
- After a CLRE command, no further EPG processing is now done for 10 seconds,
so that data sent with subsequent PUTE commands doesn't interfere with data
from the broadcasters (suggested by Helmut Auer).
- Added support for DVB cards with multiple fontends. Note that this only
works for DVB cards where each frontend can be used independently of all
the others on the same adapter.
- Fixed plugin arguments corruption with glibc 2.11 on x86_64 (thanks to
Anssi Hannula).
