Scaling now only happens if the horizontal size is -smaller than 700. - -2003-01-05: Version 0.1.4 -- Small bugfix in dxr3demuxdevice.c - -2003-02-19: Version 0.1.5 -- Support for MP3 plugin. -- Support for radio channels. Requested by Richard P. (???) who send me a - sample code ... thanks. -- Some fixes to get along with corrupt pes data (which should actually be - solved in a lower layer). Thanks to Teemu Rantanen. -- Changed sync buffer size during replay to reduce "jumps" in cutted streams. - Thanks to Atte Manninen for the idea. -- Support for still frame handling. Now it is possible to move the editing - marks with visible corresponding i-frames. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to - work with finish dvb streams. -- Some tuning to reduce cpu load during replay. - -2003-02-25: Version 0.1.6 -- Added black frames between channel switches (which solves the frozen picture - 'problem' when using the mp3-plugin, too). -- Increased thread priority of output threads which improves live stream - quality on my system (K6II 350). - -2003-03-23: Version 0.1.7 -- Added unix domain server interface to close and reopen dxr3 devices without - stopping vdr (see dxr3_ux_client.pl script on how to use this). - Requested by Atte Manninen. - Thanks to Atte Manninen and Teemu Rantanen for testing and fixing some problems. -- Added support for external player mode. -- Some cosmetic changes. -- Some changes to reduce cpu load. -- Added workaround handling for osd crash (driver patch necessary; patch with - em8300_patch.diff). - Thanks to Teemu Rantanen and Malcolm Caldwell for testing this. -- Added buffered output for mp3-plugin audio data. This seems to improve audio - quality significantly. -- Reduced count of audio errors (wrong data rate). -- Changed channel switch behavior (to remove audio disturbances => channel switching - is a little bit slower now). -- Added exception handling for defect pes streams. -- Added more checks by introducing a new pes parsing class. -- Fixed buffer overrun problem. Because of the missing pll control a buffer overrun - happens after staying for a long time on the same channel. In older version - the output stopped after a buffer overrun. Now the buffer will be cleared and - the output will continue after about a second. -- New buffer handling in PlayVideo. - -2003-03-23: Version 0.1.7a -- Bugfix in A/V-engine for audio output with less dropouts - -2003-04-28: Version 0.1.8 -- Added support for dvd-plugin (subtitles doesn't work properly so far). -- Added setup parameter to define the dxr3-card which shall be used by vdr - (thanks to Tobias Haustein). -- Added setup parameter to force letter box mode (for wrong aspect ratio coded - in pes-stream). This parameter is not saved. -- Added support for video format setup parameter (no WSS support). -- Fixed external player support (thanks to Seppo Ingalsuo). -- Added volume support (thanks to Teemu Rantanen). -- Fixed I-Frame display problem (cutting and fast forward/backwards in some streams). - Those who have problems with fast forward/backward might want to patch - vdr (use vdr_iframe_patch.diff / for vdr-1.1.29). -- Reduced memory consumption. -- Fixed problem with digital output setup parameter. -- Fixed wrong bit error detection. -- Changed bit error handling. - -2003-04-28: Version 0.1.8a -- Second trial to fix external player support (thanks to Jarkko Santala) - -2003-05-07: Version 0.1.9 -- Added support for AC3 streams (based on classes of - the AC3overDVB Patch maintained by Stefan Huelswitt). -- Added DXR3 main menu entry. It's now possible to: - - Reset DXR3-hardware. - - Toggle Force LetterBox. - - Switch to Digital Output. - - Switch to AC3 Output (when already listening to digital output). -- Added short ac3 information text on channel switch. -- Reduced analog audio disturbances. -- Fixed audio initialization problem. - -2003-05-07: Version 0.2.0 -- Fixed compatibility problem with vdr version 1.1.31 and higher. -- Fixed analog audio problem (spurious disturbances). -- Added first cut mpeg1 support: It works quite good with vcd plugin. As far as I know - this doesn't work reliable together with analog plugin. Thanks to Gavin Hamill for - testing support and investigations with analog plugin. - No osd scaling for mpeg1 at the moment. -- Changed channel switch behavior with respect to mpeg1 support (it doesn't seem - to be possible to switch between mpeg1 and mpeg2 without closing and reopening the - video device). -- Improved lib sync. - -2003-08-10: Version 0.2.1 -- Added setup entry to switch between ntsc and pal. This setting becomes active - after restarting vdr and reseting the dxr3 card, respectively. -- Fixed uninitialized variable m_audioMode in dxr3abstractiondevice.c. Thanks - to Jon Burgess. -- Fixed incorrect ioctl-problem. Thanks to Jon Burgess. -- Fixed wrong scaled osd problem when starting vdr without live stream. -- Fixed external player problem when return to dxr3 output after using ac3 output. - Thanks to Jarkko Santala for reporting this one. -- Fixed wrong assert-call. Thanks to Andre Neumann. - -2004-01-04: Version 0.2.2 - -- Some initialization fixes. Thanks to Jon Burgess. -- Added patch from Teemu Rantanen to emergency exit if - the plugin is not able to recover from dxr3 driver crash. -- Fixed some osd problems (Elchi, Games, etc.). -- Changed Makefile to support vdr-1.3.0. - -2004-06-22: Version 0.2.3-alpha1 (only for vdr-portal.de) - -- we are using now <linux/em8300.h> instead of "em8300.h" -- updated multichannelaudio.h/c with newest AC3overDVB-Patch-Source (0.2.6) -- switched to new osd routines for vdr-1.3.7 -- added dxr3singleton.h -- new interface to work with ffmpeg (chagned include to <avcodec.h>) -- added a lot of commments and cosmetic code cleanups -- using everywhere std::string - makes life nicer -- moved dxr3absdevice to dxr3interface -- rewritten some parts of dxr3interface -- added anti-glinsch-when-fast-forward-and-then-play-patch ;) -- killed DIAG and added a global logger, which is used only in - a few functions and not in every like DIAG -- removed cDxr3StatusMonitor - i dont know why we need this -- cleaned out unneeded includes -- fixed memory leak in cDxr3Interface::UploadMicroCode: - If uploading of the microcode failed, the allocated memory wasn't - freed. -- If we are changing the audiooutput now the plugin will call an overworked - AudioRepoen function, which does not shutdown the whole card. -- Things like VIDEOMODE and AUDIOMODE are now set only ONCE on plugin start! -- added check if memory in cDxr3SyncBuffer is allocated correct -- introced a 'ToDo-System'. - in every *.c file there can be something like this at the top of the file: - /* - ToDo: - - cDxr3SyncBuffer::Push: XXX This is only a workaround until a sufficient control algorithm is implemented - */ - - So it is easier to keep track of stuff, which needs more work. -- some small changes in dxr3colormanger.h/c -- some small changes in dxr3pesframe.h/c -- some small changes in spuenc.h/c -- killed spu_dump in spuenc.h/c -- renamed spuenc.h/c to dxr3interface_spu_encoder.h/c -- changed dxr3audiodecoder to support the new ffmpeg interface -- renamed dxr3absspu/dxr3absspulist to dxr3interace_spu/dxr3interace_spu_list -- volume control logarithmic instead of linear. - This is a more natural sounding way of controlling the - volume. Thanks to Jon Burgess <mplayer@jburgess.uklinux.net> -- added patch for DVD subtitles. Thanks to Stuart Daines <s.daines@ntlworld.com> -- fixed memory leak in dxr3osd.c - Thanks to Miika Pekkarinen <miipekk@ihme.org> -- added Tools namespace, which has a fixed Rgb2YCrCb function in it (dxr3tools.h) -- kicked out Cmd in dxr3osd.h/c -- added dxr3i18n.h/c -- added Portuguese language support - thanks to Paulo Lopes <pmml@netvita.pt> -- added Finnish language support - thanks to Hannu Savolainen <hannu@opensound.com> -- added Swedish language support - thanks to Tomas Prybil <tomas@prybil.se> -NOTE: I havent found time to include all of the languages, will be done in pre2 -- kicked out - i hope - some unneeded usleeps -- rewrote cSPUEncoder: Now we imitate the Cmd funtion form the dvb drivers.
