update-1.4.0

asus U3100 DMBTH 電視棒反釋源碼

- Now storing the name of the service provider (aka "bouquet") in the channel
  name, separated by a semicolon.
- The "Channels" menu can now be sorted "by number" (default), "by name" and
  "by provider". While in the "Channels" menu, pressing the '0' key switches
  through these modes.
- Added support for circular polarization.
- When reading the channels.conf file, duplicate channels (i.e. ones that have
  the same channel ID) are now automatically deleted and only the first one is
  actually stored.
- In the "Channels" menu the numeric keys now position the cursor to the channel
  with the given number.
- The "Mark/Move" function in the "Channels" menu now also works in the non-numeric
  sort modes.
- The "Update channels" parameter in the "Setup/DVB" menu has been extended to
  allow updating only the PIDs.

Timers:

- The '0' key now toggles the "Day" item in the "Timers" menu between "single
  shot" and "repeating". The keys '1'...'7' can be used to toggle the individual
  days ('1' is Monday).
- The day of a timer is now stored as a full date in ISO notation ("YYYY-MM-DD") in
  'timers.conf' and for the result of the SVDRP command LSTT
- The timer status now has a new bit that is set when that timer is currently
  recording.
- The 'summary' field of a timer definition has been renamed to 'aux', and is now
  only used for external applications to store auxiliary information with a timer,
  which has no meaning whatsoever to VDR itself.
  The contents of the 'aux' field of a timer is copied into the recording's
  'info.vdr' file, using the tag character '@'.
- The description of a recording is now taken exclusively from its related EPG
  data. If an application wants to use a different description it needs to set
  it with SVDRP/PUTE and use table ID 0x00, so that it won't be overwritten (as
  a side effect, however, this also disables VPS for such an event).
- There is no more "Summary" menu when pressing "Ok" in the "Timers" menu.
  The "Ok" key now always opens the "Edit timer" menu.
- The upper 16 bit of a timer's "flags" are no longer treated specially when a timer
  is modified in the "Edit timer" menu. If an external application needs to know if
  a timer was modified, it has to keep a copy of the timer's data and compare that
  to the actual data.
- The option "Setup/OSD/Sort timers" has been removed. Timers are always sorted
  by their start time and priority.
- The "Blue" key in the "Timers" menu now displays the EPG info of the event the
  selected timer will record (if available). The "On/Off" function has been shifted
  to the "Red" button. Editing a timer is done by pressing "Ok".

Recording:

- Now preferring budget cards when selecting a DVB device for recording.
- The file 'summary.vdr' has been replaced with 'info.vdr' and now contains the
  information about a recording, in the same format as the events are stored in
  'epg.data'.
- Recordings are now only started if there is at least 300MB free disk space.
- No longer using characters 0x01 and 0x02 for mapping single quote and slash in
  recording names.
  The single quote is not mapped at all, and the slash is interchanged
  with the tilde. Existing recordings will be handled like before, so there is
  no need to actually rename them.

SVDRP:

- The new SVDRP command 'SCAN' can be used to force  an EPG scan on a single
  DVB card system.
- Extended the SVDRP command LSTE to allow limiting the listed data to a given
  channel, the present or following events, or events at a given time.
- The SVDRP command LSTR now lists the recording information in the same tagged
  format as the LSTE command lists the EPG data.
- The new SVDRP command PLAY can be used to start replaying a recording.
- The new SVDRP command EDIT can be used to start the editing process of a recording.
- The new SVDRP command PLUG can be used to call a plugin's main menu function.
- Implemented the SVDRP command MOVC.
- The SVDRP command GRAB now determines the image type (JPEG or PNM) from the
  extension (".jpg", ".jpeg" or ".pnm") of the given file name. The explicit
  'jpeg' or 'pnm' parameter is still accepted for backward compatibility, but
  has no meaning any more.
- The SVDRP command GRAB now writes the image data to the SVDRP connection
  (encoded in base64) if the given file name consists of only the file
  extension (".jpg", ".jpeg" or ".pnm"), or if only "-" is given as file
  name.
- The new command line option '-g' must be given if the SVDRP command GRAB
  shall be allowed to write image files to disk. The parameter to this option
  must be the full path name of an existing directory, without any "..", double
  '/' or symlinks. By default, or if "-g- is given, grabbing to files is
  not allowed any more because of potential security risks.
- The SVDRP command LSTT now accepts the new option 'id' to have the channels
  of the timers listed with their unique channel ids instead of their numbers.

Audio:

- AC3 audio can now be output directly over the full featured DVB cards.
- The new remote control button "Audio" can be used to switch between different
  audio tracks. The "Green" button in the "Main" menu has been changed from "Language"
  to "Audio", since it now also controls switching between normal and Dolby Digital
  audio tracks.
- The description of the audio tracks is now taken from the "component descriptors"
  that are broadcast in the EPG data. However (as no big surprise), not all channels
  actually provide useful data here, so there are now some additional EPG bugfixes,
  which can be activated by setting the "EPG bugfix level" to 3.
- The new setup option "DVB/Audio languages" can be used to control which audio
  language shall be selected in case a channel broadcasts in different languages.
- The "Left" and "Right" keys in the "Audio" menu can be used to switch between
  the left and right stereo channels in case there are different audio tracks
  in these channels.
- The setup option "Recording/Record Dolby Digital" has been renamed and moved to
  "DVB/Use Dolby Digital". It now controls whether Dolby Digital is recorded and
  whether an available DD audio track will appear in the "Audio" menu.
- Recording and Transfer Mode now handle more than 2 audio PIDs.

Conditional Access:

- Improved CAM handling.
- The file 'ca.conf' has been removed. VDR now automatically detects which
  device contains a CAM that can decode a channel.
- Removed the now obsolete CaCaps stuff. The Setup/CICAM menu now displays the
  actual CAM type as reported by the CAM.
- The Setup/CICAM menu now only contains the devices that actually have a CI and
  dynamically detects the number of slots a CI provides.
- The CAM menu now automatically updates itself in case of a progress display (as
  used, for instance, when updating the firmware via satellite).
- Improved the CAM enquiry menu.

Internationalization:

- Added Russian language texts.
- Added Croatian language texts.
- Added Estonian language texts.
- Added Danish language texts.
- Added Czech language texts.

Misc:

- Changed thread handling to make it work with NPTL ("Native Posix Thread Library").
- The list of recordings is now kept statically in memory to avoid long delays
  when opening the "Recordings" menu. As a side effect, external modifications to
  the video directory are no longer immediately reflected in the "Recordings" menu.
  If a plugin manipulates the video directory in any way, it can call the function
  Recordings.TriggerUpdate() to trigger an update of the list of recordings.
  If some external tool manipulates the video directory, it can touch the file
  '.update' in the video directory to trigger an update of the list of recordings.
- The new setup option "DVB/Video display format" can be used to define which display
  format to use for playing wide screen video on a 4:3 tv set.
- Added the command line options '--lirc', '--rcu' and '--no-kbd' to allow setting
  the remote control at runtime.
- Pressing Ok while entering a channel number now immediately switches to that
  channel, without waiting for further input.
- The new command line option '--vfat' can be used to make VDR encode special
  characters in recording file names, even if it wasn't compiled with VFAT=1
  The compile time option VFAT still exists and creates a VDR that always behaves
  as if it were called with '--vfat'.
- Replaced the ':' delimiter between hour and minute in recording file names with
  a '.' under Linux, too. Existing recordings with ':' as delimiter will still work.
- The list of recordings is now read in a separate thread, resulting in a faster
  startup if there are a great many of recordings, or the disk(s) have to spin up.
- When displaying the amount of free disk space, the space consumed by
  recordings that have been "deleted" but not yet actually "removed" is now
  taken into account.
- Removing deleted recordings is now done in a separate thread.
- When started as user 'root' VDR can now switch to a lesser privileged user id,
  keeping the capability to set the system time. The 'runvdr' script has been
  changed to use the new '-u' option.
- The Makefile now reports a summary of failed plugins.
- Removed the "buffer reserve" in Transfer Mode - it's no longer necessary with
  recent driver/firmware versions.
- The initial channel and volume can now be defined in the "Setup/Miscellaneous"
  menu.
- In order to make sure that plugins are compiled with the same DVB driver header
  files as VDR itself, the definition of DVBDIR has been removed from the VDR
  Makefile. It can now be defined, if necessary, in Make.config.
