2005-06-22: 0.97-am3.3rcv0.97-am3.3rc

- Updated all help messages.
- Added beautified tooltips in timer_list. PLEASE COMMENT!!!
- Changed saving of AutoTimer patterns: ":" -> "|" and "|" -> "\|".
- Added support for user.css for overwriting style.css (Must be located in /etc/vdradmin/). See user.css.example. PLEASE COMMENT ON THIS!!!
- Removed obsolete files (e.g. images).
- Merged style.css and navi.css.
- Reworked templates so that they use a lot of CSS (Tested using Konqueror 3.3.2 and Firefox 1.0.4).
- Fixed programming timers with special summary when using EPG_DIRECT (timer didn't get programmed) (Thanks to HolgerAusB for giving vital hints).
- Allow browsers to cache all files VDRAdmin sends, except "text/html". This should speed up VDRAdmin but changing the skin or css needs a "shift reload".
- Added support for VDR v1.3.25's info.vdr (Submitted by vejoun).
- Use localized date formates.
- Now using "video/x-mpegurl" MIME type instead of "audio/x-mpegurl" for streaming (Suggested by stefan.h).
- Added patches supplied by stefan.h:
  -> using EPG's subtitle when found for AutoTimer else " " (that's the VDR way).
  -> New config option VDRVFAT to find recordings if VDR has been compiled with or without VFAT define.
- Fixed calling reccmds on recordings in subdirs, manual recordings (@rectitle) and repeating timer's recordings without episode title.
- Fixed streaming of manual recordings (@rectitle) and repeating timer's recordings without episode title.
- VDRAdmin-AM now uses the required charsets setting in templates, so no need to write "&xyz;" things in .po files.
- Reworked templates to make better use of CSS (for example: timeline colours can be set by style.css).
- EPG_PRUNE now is the number of channels to fetch from VDR (had been one too less before).
- Added "install.sh" and "uninstall.sh" ("./install.sh -h" for help) (Requested by several people).
- Made "name" columns in lists wrapping again (Reported by vejoun).
- Deleting a single recording works again (Reported by vejoun).
- Fixed streaming of recordings in subdirs (Reported by vejoun).
- Added missing gray sign on deactivated AutoTimers (Reported by vejoun).

+VDRAdmin Streaming
+==================
+
+The idea of extending VDRAdmin with streaming features originally came from
+the Debian maintainers of the vdradmin package. For questions about the
+streaming, they are the right contact persons:
+
+Peter Siering <ps@ctmagazin.de>, Tobias Grimm <tg@e-tobi.net>
+
+You can enable access to the streaming feature, by setting STREAM_ON=1 in
+vdradmind.conf. vdradmin is not responsible for providing video streams,
+it's just a frontend to access them.
+
+At the configuration page you can now enable/disble live streaming and
+streaming of recordings.
+
+
+Live Streaming
+--------------
+
+Live streaming gives you access to the currently selected channel. To use 
+live streaming, you must have the streamdev-server-plugin from
+Sascha Volkenandt (available at http://www.magoa.net/linux/) installed.
+This plugin provides access to the currently watched channel, by
+providing a video stream using the Video Transfer Protocol VTP.
+
+By default port 3000 is used, you can change this on the configuration page.
+
+
+Recordings Streaming
+--------------------
+
+There is no real streaming server for VDR recordings available yet. Our
+lazy solution right now is, to simply access the recordings using a Samba
+share. So your first step to make use of the recordings streaming should
+be, to make your recoordings directory available over the network.
+
+The URL, a client should use to access this network share, has to be 
+configured at the configuration page.
+
+VDRAadmin will also need direct access to VDR's recordings directory. You
+have to set this in vdradmind.conf with VIDEODIR, which is by default
+set to VIDEODIR="/video".
+
+
+Setting up the Client / Browser
+-------------------------------
+
+!!! TODO !!!
