2013-02-09Version 1.7.37Klaus Schmidinger
VDR developer version 1.7.37 is now available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.37.tar.bz2 A 'diff' against the previous version is available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.36-1.7.37.diff MD5 checksums: 602dc7e678bcfcf075da36344a337562 vdr-1.7.37.tar.bz2 34e953fcffc112f316cbfc1f53915324 vdr-1.7.36-1.7.37.diff 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. Approaching version 2.0.0: ========================== If all goes well, there should be no more functional or API changes before the final version 2.0.0. There will just be a few more fixes. From the HISTORY file: - Now also using FindHeader() in cMpeg2Fixer::AdjTref() (pointed out by Sören Moch). - Added missing template for DVBDIR to Make.config.template (reported by Derek Kelly). - The LCARS menu now also works if the OSD has only 1bpp (two colors). - Fixed possible garbage in the remaining time of the LCARS replay display in case the hours change from two to one digit. - Fixed upscaling bitmaps. The last row and column of the scaled bitmap was not filled, which resulted in empty lines between scaled subtitles. - Fixed a leftover line in case a two line subtitle was followed by a one line subtitle on the dvbhddevice in "high level" OSD mode. - Returning 0 from cDvbSdFfDevice::NumProvidedSystems() if option --outputonly is given. - The index file is now closed after initially reading it if it is older than 3600 seconds. - Improved responsiveness during replay when close to the recording's end. - Fixed a leftover progress display in the LCARS main menu when replay of a recording ends while the menu is open, and the live channel has no EPG information. - Fixed possible audio chatter when a recording is replayed to its very end. - Added dependency on 'i18n' to 'install-i18n' in the VDR Makefile (thanks to Tobias Grimm). - Changed several calls to Skins.Message() in vdr.c to Skins.QueueMessage() in order to avoid a black screen while such a message is displayed in case the channel will be switched (reported by Uwe Scheffler). - Updated the Slovakian language texts (thanks to Milan Hrala). - Improved LIRC timing for repeat function. - When pausing live video, the current audio and subtitle tracks are now retained. - Added some notes about plugin Makefiles to PLUGINS.html. - Avoiding an extra key press event if the repeat function kicks in when controlling VDR via the PC keyboard. - The new options "Setup/Miscellaneous/Remote control repeat delay" and "Setup/Miscellaneous/Remote control repeat delta" can be used to adjust the behavior of the remote control in case a key is held pressed down for a while, so that the repeat function kicks in (see MANUAL). The builtin LIRC and KBD remote controls already use these parameters. It is recommended that plugins that implement an interface to any kind of remote controls also use the parameters Setup.RcRepeatDelay and Setup.RcRepeatDelta for the desired purpose, and remove any setup options they might have that serve the same purpose. - cTimer no longer does any special "VFAT" handling to shorten directory names to 40 characters. When a string is used as a directory name for a recording, the maximum length of the directory path, as well as the individual directory names, is now limited to the values specified by the new command line option --dirnames (see man vdr(1) for details). For backwards compatibility the option --vfat is still available and has the same effect as --dirnames=250,40,1. - The macro MaxFileName is now obsolete and may be removed in future versions. Use NAME_MAX directly instead. - There is no more fixed limit to the maximum number of cPixmap objects an OSD can create. However, a particular device may still be unable to create an arbitrary number of pixmaps, due to limited resources. So it's always a good idea to use as few pixmaps as possible. - Fixed formatting and removed some superfluous break statements in vdr.c's command line option switch.

VDR developer version 1.7.34 is now available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.34.tar.bz2 A 'diff' against the previous version is available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.33-1.7.34.diff and a helper patch for plugin Makefiles can be found at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.33-pluginmakefile.diff MD5 checksums: 55d9aba62563efe39ee040e987f7023c vdr-1.7.34.tar.bz2 019ba806b263f7054dbd0da8956ea73b vdr-1.7.33-1.7.34.diff 6c2b8efe5eead6822f006bc867ccb324 vdr-1.7.33-pluginmakefile.diff 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. IMPORTANT: ========== This version comes with revised versions of the Makefiles for VDR itself and all of its standard plugins. As a result of this, existing plugins will no longer build with this version of VDR, unless their Makefiles are properly adapted. To do so, please follow the instructions given below. There is also a generic patch (see below) that might help you update your plugin's Makefile. If you do want to build this version of VDR with plugins that don't have their Makefiles adapted yet, you can simply copy the Makefile, Make.global and Make.config (if applicable) files from a previous version of VDR into this source and use them. Note, though, that you cannot mix old and new Makefiles. All Makefiles for VDR and all plugins must be either old or new! PLEASE GIVE THE PLUGIN DEVELOPERS SOME TIME TO ADAPT THEIR MAKEFILES ACCORDINGLY. AFTER ALL, IT'S CHRISTMAS, SO THEY PROBABLY HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO THAN SIT AT THEIR COMPUTERS ;-). From the HISTORY file: - Changed the type of the TimerMatch parameter in cSkinDisplayMenu::SetItemEvent() from 'int' to 'eTimerEvent' (reported by Christoph Haubrich). - Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov). - Fixed cOsd::GetBitmap() to always return NULL if a non-exising area is requested. - Added several missing "`ls $^`" in the calls to xgettext in plugin Makefiles and the "newplugin" script. - Fixed setting the --package-name and --package-version options in the calls to xgettext in several plugin Makefiles. - Added "-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE" to the DEFINES in the Makefile (somehow got lost from Make.config.template in version 1.7.13). - Removed some redundancy in the Makefile/Make.global/Make.config mechanism (suggested by Christopher Reimer). The file Make.global is no longer used, and plugin Makefiles don't include the file Make.config any more. Instead they now retrieve all necessary information through calls to pkg-config. - The plugin Makefiles now have a separate 'install' target (suggested by Christopher Reimer). In order to still allow the normal building of VDR (with all plugins in its ./PLUGINS/src subdirectory, the plugin libraries in ./PLUGINS/lib and the i18n files in ./locale) the VDR Makefile checks the settings of LIBDIR and LOCDIR when building the plugins from within the VDR source directory. If these macros have their default values, then the 'install' targets of the plugins' Makefiles are called. Otherwise the 'all' targets are called and the plugins are merely built, and will have to be installed by a call to 'make install-plugins'. This now also allows a user to copy a plugin source to any directory, change into that directory and do 'make' and 'make install' to have the plugin installed to wherever the local installation of VDR expects them. - Plugin Makefiles now use DESTDIR and the 'install' program (thanks to Christopher Reimer). - Due to the changes to the plugin Makefiles, existing plugins will not build with this version of VDR any more. You can either use the new 'newplugin' script to generate a dummy plugin directory and use the Makefile from there (adapting it to your particular plugin), or apply the patch from ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.33-pluginmakefile.diff to your Makefile to make the necessary changes (see comments in that file for details). - Added the new menu categories mcChannelEdit, mcTimerEdit, mcScheduleNow, mcScheduleNext, mcRecordingInfo, mcPluginSetup, mcSetupOsd, mcSetupEpg, mcSetupDvb, mcSetupLnb, mcSetupCam, mcSetupRecord, mcSetupReplay, mcSetupMisc and mcSetupPlugins. - Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto). - Fixed replay stuttering close to the end of an ongoing recording (reported by Andreas Regel). - Fixed cIndexFile::GetNextIFrame() to properly handle the case where the very last frame is an I-frame (which normally shouldn't occur). - Fixed replaying ongoing recordings from other VDR instances.
2012-12-26Version 1.7.33Klaus Schmidinger
VDR developer version 1.7.33 is now available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.33.tar.bz2 A 'diff' against the previous version is available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.32-1.7.33.diff MD5 checksums: 7c21451360ac7959d0d95e533d34451c vdr-1.7.33.tar.bz2 c79257198f8569bc02f43dc470ee3076 vdr-1.7.32-1.7.33.diff 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. IMPORTANT: ========== This version of VDR no longer sets LC_NUMERIC to "C" in order to make sure any floating point numbers written to configuration files use a proper decimal point. It rather explicitly converts such numbers using the new functions atod() and dtoa(). IF YOU USE PLUGINS THAT STORE FLOATING POINT NUMBERS IN THEIR OWN CONFIGURATION FILES, YOU SHOULD SET export LC_NUMERIC=C BEFORE RUNNING VDR, UNTIL THESE PLUGINS HAVE BEEN PROPERLY UPDATED. From the HISTORY file: - In order to be able to play TS recordings from other sources, in which there is more than one PMT PID in the PAT, 'int cPatPmtParser::PatPmt(void)' has been changed to 'bool cPatPmtParser::IsPatPmt(int Pid)'. - Fixed learning remote control keys with the LCARS skin. - Updated the Macedonian OSD texts (thanks to Dimitar Petrovski). - Fixed getting only non-video packets in cCuttingThread::GetPendingPackets() (reported by Sören Moch). - Changed all occurrences of MPEG4 to H264 (pointed out by Sören Moch). - Fixed getting the number of editing sequences in case the last sequence has no actual end mark. - The cutter now only increments the TS continuity counter for packets that have a payload (pointed out by Sören Moch). - Fixed adjusting the DTS values in the cutter, to compensate for dropped B-frames (pointed out by Sören Moch). - Fixed a typo in skins.h (thanks to Lars Hanisch). - Simplified calculating the PTS offset in cPtsFixer::Fix() and fixed the overflow handling of PCR values (thanks to Sören Moch). - Fixed calling iconv_close() only with a valid iconv_t value (thanks to Juergen Lock). - Fixed faulty opening of the Recordings menu when pressing the Play key during normal live viewing mode in case there is a "last viewed" recording. - Fixed some #include statements in plugins to use <vdr/...> instead of "vdr/..." (thanks to Lars Hanisch). - Fixed some spellings in osd.h and svdrp.c (thanks to Ville Skyttä). - Fixed handling lowercase polarization characters in channel definitions if no DiSEqC is used (reported by Mike Hay, actual bug pointed out by Stefan Huelswitt). - Synchronizing system time to the transponder time is now done using adjtime() in order to avoid discontinuities (suggested by Manuel Reimer). If the time difference is more than 10 seconds, stime() is still used to do the initial sync. - The '7' and '9' keys now jump to the very beginning or end, respectively, of the recording, even if there is no mark set at that point (following a request from Andre Weidemann). - Now always setting the TDT EIT filter, because otherwise when turning on using the transponder time in the Setup menu, it would only be used after the next restart of VDR (thanks to Sundararaj Reel). - The new functions cDevice::CanScaleVideo() and cDevice::ScaleVideo() can be used by derived output devices to implement scaling the video to a given size and location (based on a suggestion by Lucian Muresan). - The SVDRP command HITK now discards any keys if the remote control is currently turned off (thanks to Alexander Hans). - The new remote control key "Play/Pause" can be used with remote controls that don't have separate keys for "Play" and "Pause", but rather have a single key for both functions (thanks to Stefan Hofmann for suggesting to implement support for such remote controls). - The new option "Setup/Replay/Pause on mark set" can be used to activate automatically going into Pause mode if an editing mark is set during replay (suggested by Andre Weidemann). - When regenerating the index of a recording, the frame rate stored in the info file is now automatically fixed if it differs from the value detected by the frame detector. - Fixed creating the edited version directory if a relative file name is given in the call to 'vdr --edit' (the '/video' part was stripped from the given file name even if it wasn't there). - The new option "Setup/Replay/Progress display time" can be used to activate automatically displaying the progress display whenever replay of a recording is started (suggested by Stefan Blochberger). - Changed reading and writing of floating point numbers into configuration files to make it independent of the decimal point used in the current locale. All calls to atof() have been replaced with the new function atod(), which makes sure the string representation of a floating point number using a '.' as decimal point will be handled correctly, even if the locale in use expects a ',' as the decimal point. Plugins that read floating point numbers from their own configuration files will also need to use atod() for this, or use a method of their own (this is not necessary if values are stored in VDR's setup.conf file, because VDR takes care of this). The reason for these changes is that floating point numbers presented to the user shall be displayed in the way defined by the current locale (suggested by Stefan Blochberger). If you use plugins that store floating point values in configuration files of their own and have not yet been adapted to this change, you should set export LC_NUMERIC=C before running VDR. Otherwise your plugin's configuration data may not be read or written correctly. - The new functions SetItemEvent(), SetItemTimer(), SetItemChannel() and SetItemRecording() of the cSkinDisplayMenu class can be reimplemented by skin plugins to display these items in a more elaborate way than just a simple line of text.
2012-11-19Version 1.7.32Klaus Schmidinger
VDR developer version 1.7.32 is now available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.32.tar.bz2 A 'diff' against the previous version is available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.31-1.7.32.diff MD5 checksums: 068ba78fd427694dcc480fe3b2d07148 vdr-1.7.32.tar.bz2 222f1e9b4d4edaa6fe57286409614cc7 vdr-1.7.31-1.7.32.diff 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. The main focus of this version is on an improved frame detection code, and improvements to the cutting process. When cutting a recording, VDR now removes any "dangling" TS packets from the beginning of an editing sequence and pulls in any "pending" TS packets at the end of a sequence. It also fixes all timestamps and continuity counters. However, while the results look much better now in, for instance, Kaffeine, the TT S2-6400 still shows some video artifacts at the editing points, and the Mac video player sometimes totally chokes on edited material. I did spend a lot of time trying to find out what could still be wrong here, but couldn't come up with any new ideas. So I think it's now time to invite others to test this new cutting code, read the source code and try to find out what's still going wrong here. Maybe (hopefully ;-) it's just some stupid little error... ;-) From the HISTORY file: - Pressing the Play key during normal live viewing mode now opens the Recordings menu if there is no "last viewed" recording (thanks to Alexander Wenzel). The same behavior has been implemented for the Blue key in the main menu. - cIoThrottle::Engaged() is now also checked in cRemoveDeletedRecordingsThread::Action(), to suspend removing deleted recordings in case this is necessary to make room for new, ongoing recordings (suggested by Udo Richter). - The cThread constructor now has an additional boolean parameter that can be set to true to have this thread run at a lower priority. Plugin authors that use low priority threads may want to use this instead of the calls to SetPriority(19) and SetIOPriority(7). The priority of a thread ("low" or "high") is now logged when the thread starts. - Changed DTV_DVBT2_PLP_ID to DTV_STREAM_ID in dvbdevice.c to adapt to an incompatible change in DVB API 5.8 (reported by Derek Kelly). Removed the meanwhile obsolete definition of FE_CAN_TURBO_FEC. - Fixed some compiler warnings under gcc version 4.7.1. - Fixed setting the video format in the dvbhdffdevice (thanks to Torsten Lang). - Fixed 'make install' to not overwrite existing configuration files (thanks to Peter Münster). - Added including the Make.global and Make.config files to the dvbdhffdevice's libhdffcmd/Makefile. - Added options to build a 32-bit version of VDR on a 64-bit machine to Make.config.template. - Fixed handling VPS timers in case the running status of an event goes to '1' (not running) and later goes to '4' (running). - If a frame position in the 'marks' file of a recording doesn't point to an I-frame, it will now be shifted towards the next I-frame, either up or down, whichever is closer (suggested by Udo Richter). - Fixed a possible memory leak in SI::StructureLoop::getNextAsPointer() (reported by Sundararaj Reel). - Fixed handling timers in case an event is modified and "phased out" while the timer is recording. - Improved frame detection by parsing just far enough into the MPEG-4 NAL units to get the necessary information about frames and slices. - The initial syncing of the frame detector is now done immediately after the first complete GOP has been seen. This makes recordings and especially pausing live video start up to twice as fast as before. - Updated the Romanian OSD texts (thanks to Lucian Muresan). - Fixed handling the very last entry in a recording index. - The return type of cMarks::Add() has been changed to void, since due to the sorting of the list of marks the returned pointer might have pointed to a totally different mark. Besides, the return value was never actually used. - Improved editing TS recordings by + stripping dangling TS packets from the beginning of a sequence + including pending TS packets at the end of a sequence + fixing all timestamps and continuity counters + generating editing marks for the edited version in such a way that each cutting point is marked by an "end" and "begin" mark with the same offset + no longer generating an editing mark at the "end" of the edited recording (this was actually generated at the beginning of the last GOP, so that a subsequent edit would have cut off the last GOP) + no longer generating any editing marks if the edited recording results on just one single sequence + ignoring pairs of editing marks that are placed at exactly the same position of a recording when actually cutting the recording + not doing anything if the editing marks in place would result in the edited version being the same as the original recording - Editing marks can now be placed directly on top of each other, in which case they simply mark a position, but have no effect on the actual cutting process. - When positioned at an offset where two (or more) editing marks are placed on top of each other, the '4' key moves the first one of them to the left, while the '6' key moves the last one of them to the right. The '7' and '9' key handle multiple marks at the same place as if it were one single mark. - Modified editing marks are now written to disk whenever the replay progress display gets hidden (thanks to Christoph Haubrich).

VDR developer version 1.7.31 is now available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.31.tar.bz2 A 'diff' against the previous version is available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.30-1.7.31.diff MD5 checksums: a3edd18a352465dd26c97c1990f7bcfd vdr-1.7.31.tar.bz2 32ff98697d1b383478a6e1932e4afc9c vdr-1.7.30-1.7.31.diff 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. The default skin "LCARS" displays the signal strengths and qualities of all devices in its main menu. For devices that have an stb0899 frontend chip (like the TT-budget S2-3200) retrieving this information from the driver is rather slow, which results in a sluggish response to user input in the main menu. To speed this up you may want to apply the patches from ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/Driver-Patches to the LinuxDVB driver source. The changes since version 1.7.30: - If regenerating an index file fails and no data is written to the file, VDR now reports this error and removes the empty index file. - The setup parameter "Recording/Instant rec. time (min)" can now be set to '0', which means to record only the currently running event (based on a patch from Matti Lehtimäki). - Decreased the ring buffer put/get trigger sizes from 1/3 to 1/10. - The script given to VDR with the '-r' option is now also called whenever a recording is deleted (thanks to Alexander Wenzel). - Improved detecting frames in MPEG 4 video (reported by Andrey Pridvorov). - cPatPmtParser::ParsePmt() now also recognizes stream type 0x81 as "AC3", so that recordings that have been converted from the old PES format to TS can be played (suggested by Jens Vogel). - Fixed a leftover frame counter in the LCARS skin's replay display after jumping to an editing mark and resuming replay. - The new class cIoThrottle is used to allow I/O intense threads to temporarily suspend their activities in case buffers run full (suggested by Torsten Lang). Currently the cutter thread is suspended if the TS or Recorder buffer use more than 50% of their capacity. Plugin authors may want to participate in this mechanism if they use intense background I/O. - Increased the size of the TS buffer to 5MB and that of the Recorder buffer to 20MB to better handle HD recordings (suggested by Torsten Lang). - Moved cleaning up the EPG data and writing the epg.data file into a separate thread to avoid sluggish response to user input on slow systems (based on a patch from Sören Moch). - Fixed sorting folders before recordings in case of UTF-8 (thanks to Sören Moch). - Reactivated stripping control characters from EPG texts and adapted it to UTF-8. - Added missing decrementing of 'len' in libsi/si.c's String::decodeText() functions. - When checking whether a video directory is empty, file names that start with a dot ('.') are no longer automatically ignored and implicitly removed if the directory contains no other files. Instead, RemoveEmptyDirectories() now has an additional parameter that can be given a list of files that shall be ignored when considering whether a directory is empty. This allows users to continue to use files such as ".keep" to prevent a directory from being deleted when it is empty. Currently the only file name that is ignored is ".sort".

To speed this up you may want to apply the patches from ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/Driver-Patches to the LinuxDVB driver source. From the HISTORY file: - Fixed sorting recordings in the top level video directory. - Fixed handling control characters in SI data in case of UTF-8 encoded strings (thanks to Mehdi Karamnejad for reporting a problem with garbled UTF-8 EPG data and helping to debug it). - Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - When checking whether a video directory is empty, file names that start with a dot ('.') are now ignored and will be implicitly removed if the directory contains no other files. This fixes the leftover ".sort" files that were introduced in version 1.7.29. - Added IsUpdate() to the EPG handler interface (thanks to Jörg Wendel). - Fixed detecting transfer mode on full featured DVB cards (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt for reporting a problem with updating CA descriptors in such cases). - Fixed a race condition when zapping in transfer mode (reported by Reinhard Nissl). This involves a slight change in the semantics of the cReceiver::Activate() function, which is now called with 'false' after the receiver has been detached from the device. - The new function cDevice::ReadFilter() can be used by devices to implement their own way of retrieving section filter data (thanks to Deti Fliegl). - The new function cDevice::HasInternalCam() can be implemented by devices that provide encrypted channels in an already decrypted form, without requiring explicit handling of a CAM (thanks to Tobias Grimm). - VDR can now be built according to the FHS ("File system Hierarchy Standard") by activating the line #USEFHS = 1 in a copy of the file Make.config.template (thanks to Dennis Bendlin, as well as Christopher Reimer and Udo Richter for contributing to the patch). - By default (without FHS support) the config directory is now set to the value given in the -v option if only -v and no -c is given. - Fixed a long delay at the end when replaying a recording that has stopped recording less than an hour ago (typically time shift mode or a freshly edited recording). - Fixed getting the file size and number of frames of ongoing recordings (only the timestamp of the recording's directory was checked, while it should have been that of the index file). - Fixed sluggish response when manipulating editing marks while a cutting thread is running (reported by Torsten Lang). - The new setup options "OSD/Color key [0123]" can be used to adjust the sequence of the color buttons displayed in the menus to that of the color keys on your remote control (based on a patch from Oliver Schinagl). Authors of plugins that implement skins may want to adapt their SetButtons() function in order to make use of this new feature. See, for instance, the function cSkinClassicDisplayMenu::SetButtons() in skinclassic.c for details.

The selected sort mode is stored separately for each folder (provided you have write access to that folder). If a folder is newly created by a repeating timer, the sort mode for that folder is initially set to "by time". - Fixed several spelling errors (thanks to Ville Skyttä). - Fixed handling recording with more than two bonded devices. - Fixed the type of MBperMinute in cVideoDiskUsage::HasChanged() (thanks to Andreas Mair). - Setting the "broken link" or "TEI" flags when cutting recordings is now suppressed if the editing point merges two seamlessly fitting parts of the same stream (thanks to Torsten Lang). - Fixed displaying messages in the LCARS skin. - Fixed checking for a visible live programme in case a menu or the channel display is currently open. - Changed some of the colors in the LCARS skin (you may need to delete the file lcars-default.theme from your themes directory to see these changes). - The new setup option "Miscellaneous/Show channel names with source" can be used to turn on adding the source character to channel names whenever they are displayed (suggested by Ludi Kaleni).

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. The new default skin "LCARS" displays the signal strengths and qualities of all devices in its main menu. For devices that have an stb0899 frontend chip (like the TT-budget S2-3200) retrieving this information from the driver is rather slow, which results in a sluggish response to user input in the main menu. To speed this up you may want to apply the patches from From the HISTORY file: - Fixed cPixmapMemory::DrawEllipse() for quadrants -1 and -4. - Fixed getting the maximum short channel name length in case there are no short names at all (reported by Derek Kelly). - The new function cDevice::DeviceType() returns a string identifying the type of the given device. - Now limiting the number of characters of a channel's (short) name to 16 in the schedules menus, to keep that column from getting overly wide in case there is a channel with a very long name that has no short name. - Fixed EPG scan on systems with only a single DVB device that use software output (reported by Juergen Lock). - Skins can now inquire the menu category for which their cSkinDisplayMenu is currently being used. This can be done either through a call to cSkinDisplayMenu::MenuCategory() or by reimplementing cSkinDisplayMenu::SetMenuCategory(). This information allows a skin to use special icons or decorations for the various types of menus in VDR. - The new setup option "DVB/Standard compliance" can be used to switch between different variations of the DVB standard (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). Currently there is "DVB" (for the original DVB standard) and "ANSI/SCTE", which is used to properly handle certain private stream types. - The disk usage is no longer automatically added to the title of the main and "Recordings" menus. This has always been a mekeshift solution and it is now up to the individual skin if, where and how it wants to display this information. A skin can use the new cVideoDiskUsage class to implement such a display. For compatibility, the default skins "Classic VDR", "ST:TNG Panels" and "Text mode" (i.e. curses) have been changed to behave like before. Other skins may want to display the disk usage in totally different ways. - A cOsdMenu can now handle skins that display different numbers of items in the various menu categories. - OSD and skin are now reinitialized after a plugin setup page has been confirmed, to have them react immediately in case any change to a plugin's setup parameter has an effect on the OSD. - The Timers list is now marked as modified whenever a recording starts or ends. - Fixed cDevice::StillPicture(), making sure it doesn't call the derived class's function if no buffer has been allocated (reported by Marcus Roscher). - Fixed the SVDRP command UPDR, which didn't update the global recordings list (reported by Lars Hanisch). - cControl::Control() now has an additional boolean parameter, which can be set to true to get the current player control even if it is hidden. - The new functions cControl::GetRecording() and cControl::GetHeader() can be used to retrieve information about what the current player is playing. - Fixed a possible high CPU load when pausing replay (thanks to Reinhard Nissl). - Fixed character comparisons in cSubtitleObject::DecodeCharacterString() (reported by Reinhard Mantey). - Renamed the function cString::sprintf(const char *fmt, va_list &ap) to vsprintf(), because it might inadvertently be called with a 'char *' as the second argument on some compilers and cause a crash (reported by Sundararaj Reel). - Removed the "bondedMasterFailed" mechanism from cDvbTuner, because it caused problems with the EPG scan in case a transponder is not receivable in a setup with bonded devices (reported by Michael Schneider). - Making sure setup strings don't contain any newline characters (thanks to Joachim Wilke). - The new member function cSkinDisplayReplay::SetRecording() allows a skin to display more information about the currently played recording. - Fixed a mismatched 'delete' in cSchedules::SetEpgDataFileName() (thanks to Reinhard Mantey). - The DrawText() functions of the OSD now accept the new alignment flag taBorder, which triggers keeping a proper distance from the edge that taLeft or taRight aligns to. - Fixed checking for UTF-8 support in cFont::Bidi() (reported by Torsten Lang). - If a recording has no info file, the 'title' of the recording's info is now set to the recording's name. - cVector::Clear() now reinitializes any previously used members. - Fixed resetting CAMs (thanks to Marco Skambraks). - The new function RgbShade() (include osd.h) can be used to generate a brighter or darker version of a given color. - The new class cSortedTimers can be used to quickly get a list of all timers, sorted by their start time. - The new skin "LCARS" is an enhanced version of the "ST:TNG" skin (which is still there in its original layout, for those who don't like the LCARS skin, or can't use it due to OSD limitations). The LCARS skin utilizes the new "menu category" feature to display additional information on the main menu page. It shows upcoming timers and the system's devices, as well as which device is recording which timers. The upper pane of the main menu displays the programme data in live and replay mode, and a progress bar. An indicator on the right side of the device list shows which device is currently used for live viewing, and whether it is in transfer mode. The individual device displays show the device number, the device type, which CAM (if any ) is currently assigned to the device, and the signal strength and quality. On the left side of the OSD there is a permanent display of the current date and time, the disk usage and the system load. "LCARS" is the new default skin of VDR. It requires at least a 4bpp (16 color) full screen OSD, but you can still operate it if your OSD can handle only fewer colors (in which case you may want to switch to the "ST:TNG" or "Classic VDR" skin). - Finally removed the code marked with __RECORDING_H_DEPRECATED_DIRECT_MEMBER_ACCESS and LEGACY_CRECEIVER. - Now making sure that the "small font" is never larger than the "osd font". - Fixed font handling with fontconfig 2.9.0 or newer (thanks to Joerg Bornkessel). - Extended the interface to the script that gets called for recordings, so that in the "edited" case it also provides the name of the original recording (thanks to Christian Richter). - Added DeleteEvent() to the EPG handler interface, so that an EPG handler can trigger deleting of an event (thanks to Christian Kaiser). - Speeded up opening menus on systems with many (several thousands) of recordings, by caching the information whether a recording is stored on the video directory file system within the cRecording data (based on a patch from Torsten Lang).

You can reactivate these to quickly make your plugin compile again, but beware that these code parts will be removed in one of the next versions. - Made the "overloaded-virtual" warning an error to detect hidden overloaded virtual functions (thanks to Anssi Hannula for pointing out -Werror=...). Plugin authors may want to change -Woverloaded-virtual to -Werror=overloaded-virtual in their Makefiles. - Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov). - Improved fast forwarding to the end of a timeshift recording. - The new function cDevice::DeviceName() returns a string identifying the name of the given device. - When toggling a timer between "Single" and "Repeating", the previous setting is now retained in case the user toggles back to the original value. - When estimating the remaining disk space (in hours), the average data rate of all existing recordings is now taken into account. If this value can't be determined, the previous value of 25.75 MB/min is taken. - No longer using GetFont() (which is not thread safe) in the 'osddemo' plugin. - No longer using GetFont() (which is not thread safe) in cSubtitleRegion::UpdateTextData(). - Fixed a memory leak in cSubtitleRegion::UpdateTextData(). - Moved setting LC_NUMERIC further up to make sure any floating point numbers use a decimal point (suggested by Tobias Grimm). - Added missing channel locking to cEIT. - Fixed reduced bpp support for DVB subtitles (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto). - Reverted some improvements to Make.config.template (thanks to Christian Ruppert). - Fixed handling IDLEPRIORITY in cDvbDevice::ProvidesChannel() (thanks to Frank Schmirler).

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. From the HISTORY file: - Now checking for NULL in cOsd::AddPixmap() (suggested by Christoph Haubrich). - Fixed the German translation of "VDR will shut down in %s minutes" (thanks to Frank Neumann). - The replay progress display is now turned on whenever a mark is toggled (not only when one is set). - Toggling a mark now restarts the timeout of the replay progress display. - Fixed a possible race condition with the SVDRP commands CLRE and PUTE, where EPG data from the transponder could be handled even though it shouldn't be handled for 10 seconds. - Added some missing member initializations in cBitmap. - Improved displaying the play mode in the ST:TNG skin. - Made the ST:TNG skin the default in case the user selected skin is not available. - Improved displaying signal strength and quality in the ST:TNG skin's channel display. - Fixed switching devices to the transponders of VPS recordings in case there are only bonded devices. The cDevice's "avoid device" mechanism has been replaced by using "occupied". - Fixed selecting devices for the EPG scan in case the primary device is bonded with an other one. - Removed the calls to EITScanner.UsesDevice(this) from dvb[hs]ddevice.c, because the code following these calls is only executed if LiveView is true, which is never the case when the EITScanner switches to a channel. - Removed the obsolete function cEITScanner::UsesDevice(). If a plugin has used this function to find out whether a call to its cStatus::ChannelSwitch() function was due to a live channel switch, it can use that function's new parameter LiveView. Any plugins that implement cStatus::ChannelSwitch() need to add the parameter 'bool LiveView' to that function. - Fixed parsing channel data in case the audio pid is 0. On channels that only broadcast Dolby Digital audio there were sometimes log entries like "changing pids of channel ... from ... to ..." with no apparent difference between the old and new set of pids. - Fixed checking pids in case a channel has only Dolby Digital audio. - The Green button in the "Edit timer" menu can now be used to toggle between single shot and repeating timers. This is the same as pressing '0' when the "Day" field is selected, but it works at any time (and is more obvious). - Revoked "If the first event in a schedule has a table id of 0x00, any incoming EIT data for that schedule from the DVB stream will be completely ignored". - Added a new plugin interface for implementing EPG handlers. + A plugin can implement an EPG handler by creating an object derived from cEpgHandler and implementing the necessary member functions. + The special handling of events with table id 0x00 has been dropped. For backwards compatibility EPG events with table ids lower than 0x4E will be treated as if they had a table id of 0x4E, and the new plugin 'epgtableid0' can be used to have them handled like in previous versions. + The default table id for a newly created cEvent has been changed to 0xFF, which is higher than any normal table id that is broadcast in the EIT data. See PLUGINS.html, section "Electronic Program Guide" for more information.

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. From the HISTORY file: - The fps value for channels where it differs from the default is now set correctly when pausing live video. - Increased the average character estimate for calculating tab positions in skins, to better suit wide fonts (reported by Rudi Hofer). - Fixed getting the subsystem ids of DVB devices in case they have been rearranged via udev rules. - Added several cTimer::Set...() functions (suggested by Alexander Rieger). - Changed the return value of cTimer::SetFile() to 'void'. - Revoked "Fixed a possible deadlock in time shift mode" because it caused trouble with output on vdr-xine and dxr3, and also short glitches when replaying on any output device. - Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov). - Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Fixed handling subtitle color palettes on channels where subtitles appear "word by word" (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Fixed upscaling cBitmaps with anti-aliasing (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg for reporting a problem with color palettes in subtitles). - Fixed getting the video aspect ratio for scaling subtitles. - Removed the "PrimaryLimit". Old "full featured" DVB cards can be run with the --outputonly option to avoid problems with recording high bandwidth channels. Besides, with HDTV becoming ever more popular those cards are pretty much obsolete by now (the TT S2-6400 has no problems recording and replaying high bandwidth channels simultaneously). And, last but not least, people using software players won't notice this change, anyway. - Since cReceivers can have priorities between -99 and 99, the priority for an unused device has been changed from -1 to -100. - If the first event in a schedule has a table id of 0x00, any incoming EIT data for that schedule from the DVB stream will be completely ignored. This way an external EPG source can fill the schedules with EPG data that will not be messed up with that from the DVB data stream. Note, though, that this means VDR can not do VPS controlled recordings with such events! - Added some typecasts to silence gcc compiler warnings (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Fixed handling overlapping timers in case a VPS timer with higher priority needs to interrupt a timer with lower priority. - The code for the RCU remote control unit has been moved into a separate plugin named "rcu". The REMOTE=RCU option in the 'make' call for VDR is now obsolete. The command line option --rcu is now obsolete. Use -Prcu instead. If you have used --rcu with a device path, use -P"rcu -d<device>". - Added support for automatically selecting subtitles when playing old PES recordings made with the subtitles plugin (thanks to Anssi Hannula). - Revised priority handling to allow receivers with a priority that is lower than that of live viewing (with suggestions from Frank Schmirler): + An idle device (one that is not used for live viewing and has no receiver attached to it) now has priority IDLEPRIORITY (-100). + An unused CAM slot now has priority IDLEPRIORITY. + The default priority of a cReceiver is now MINPRIORITY (-99). + A device that is used only for live viewing (no matter whether it's in Transfer Mode or real live mode) now has priority TRANSFERPRIORITY (-1). + The function cDevice::Receiving() now returns true if there is any receiver attached to the device. Its boolean parameter has no meaning any more. + The default value for the Priority parameter of the function cDevice::ProvidesChannel() has been changed to IDLEPRIORITY. - Added a Query parameter to cDevice::GetDevice(), so that devices can be queried without side effects when zapping. - Replaced min(max()) calls with the new function constrain(). - Fixed handling OSD color button texts in case a menu item has texts of its own (reported by Rolf Ahrenberg). If a plugin creates derived cMenuEditItems that set color button texts, these should not set the texts directly by calling cSkinDisplay::Current()->SetButtons(), but rather call the new member function cMenuEditItem::SetHelp(). - Moved the call to cStatus::MsgChannelSwitch(this, 0) to the beginning of cDevice::SetChannel(), so that any receivers that have been attached to the device by plugins may be detached before the final call to GetDevice(). This actually reverts "Only calling cStatus::MsgChannelSwitch() if a channel is actually going to be switched or has actually been switched successfully" which was made in version 1.1.10, so please report if this has any unwanted side effects.

This function is called in cDevice::SetPrimaryDevice(), anyway. - An ongoing editing process is now canceled if either the original or the edited version of the recording is deleted from the Recordings menu. - The SVDRP command DELR now won't delete a recording that is currently being edited. - Removed code stub for obsolete SVDRP command MOVT. - The DVB device adapters/frontends are now probed by scanning the /dev/dvb directory instead of looping through adapter/frontend numbers. This allows for "holes" in the device numbering. - cReadDir::Next() now skips directory entries "." and "..". - Fixed a possible deadlock in time shift mode. - Fixed switching into time shift mode when pausing live video (thanks to Reinhard Nissl for helping to debug this one).

This requires a DVB driver with version 5.5 or higher that can handle the DTV_ENUM_DELSYS call. With older drivers it will fall back to one delivery system per frontend. - Updated the Hungarian language texts (thanks to István Füley). - cDvbTuner::ExecuteDiseqc() now makes sure only one tuner sends SCR commands at any given time (reported by Frank Neumann). - cEvent::FixEpgBugs() now replaces any newline characters in stream component descriptions with blanks (thanks to Torsten Lang for reporting a problem with EPG data from BSkyB's "MTV MUSIC", S28.2E-2-2010-7012). - Fixed cDvbSubtitleConverter::SetOsdData() (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Fixed cListBase::Move() in case From and To are equal (reported by Sundararaj Reel). - Added support for DVB-T2 to libsi (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Added support for handling DVB-T2 transponders.

Since "Unicable" is a registered trademark and stands for only one of many implementations of SCR, the following changes have been made compared to the patch, which need to be taken into account by people who have set up their system using the patch: - The 'U' parameter in the diseqc.conf file has been changed to 'S' ("Scr"). - The configuration file name has been changed from "unicable.conf" to "scr.conf". - Updated sources.conf (thanks to Arthur Konovalov). - The SVDRP command LSTC now also accepts channel IDs (thanks to Dominic Evans). - Fixed handling DVB subtitles and implemented decoding textual DVB subtitles (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Added cap_net_raw to the capabilities that are not dropped (thanks to Dominic Evans). - Fixed setting the start time of an edited recording (thanks to Christoph Haubrich). - Temporarily switching free devices to transponders in order to have their running status updated is now done by marking the devices as "occupied" for a certain amount of time. - The new setup options "LNB/Device n connected to sat cable" can be used to define which DVB-S devices are connected to the same sat cable and are therefore "bonded". This obsoletes the LNBSHARE patch. Users of the LNBSHARE patch will need to newly set up their sat devices with the above options. - Fixed a crash when deleting a recording while cutting it (thanks to Ville Skyttä). - Fixed several spelling errors (thanks to Ville Skyttä). - The new SVDRP command UPDR can be used to trigger an update of the list of recordings (thanks to Lars Hanisch). - Added generating a pkg-config file to the Makefile (thanks to Ville Skyttä). - Removed the '.pl' suffix from all scripts (thanks to Ville Skyttä). - Changed the default location for the LIRC socket to /var/run/lirc/lircd (thanks to Ville Skyttä). - Added file name and line number to LOG_ERROR_STR() (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Replaced all calls to sleep() with cCondWait::SleepMs() (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Fixed a crash with malformed SI data (patch from vdr-portal).

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.

Original announce message: VDR developer version 1.7.19 is now available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.19.tar.bz2 A 'diff' against the previous version is available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.18-1.7.19.diff MD5 checksums: 1eb04ecdc2b11ab8641ebfaa2cb93f42 vdr-1.7.19.tar.bz2 db16ce7bb51e0db837ed56ef4744a67e vdr-1.7.18-1.7.19.diff 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).
2011-03-19Version 1.7.17Klaus Schmidinger
- 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.
