Internationalization (i18n) =========================== -Since the release of VDR 1.5.7 the way how VDR (and its plugins) are -localized changed dramatically. The system now uses GNU gettext. This -has the advantage that more languages can be supported. Also the -translations are now local to a language specific message file. So -simultaneous translations of different languages are much better -supported. Message files are located in the po subdirectory. - -The downside to this is that, in order to provide new live-plugin -versions for VDR versions less than 1.5.7, it means one has to -maintain old i18n.c file and the new message files. Since this would -be an ongoing source of complications we decided to actively support -only the new internationalization scheme from VDR 1.5.7 and above. - -To be able to support versions of VDR prior to 1.5.7 we generate a -backward compatible i18n-generated.h file from the new message -files. This generation step is *not* done automatically on every -build. It is only neccessary if the localized strings have changed or -if translations have been added. So if one of above is true you can -regenerate i18n-generated.h with the make target 'generate-i18n' prior -to creating the live plugin. In this case you need the CPAN perl -module Locale::PO installed on your system. +LIVE uses the same i18n support like VDR does since version 1.5.7. +This version of LIVE can not support i18n compatible with VDR versions +older than 1.5.7. + +All localization files are found in the po subdirectory of the LIVE +plugin source.
