  are now only meaningful if DiSEqC is not used.
- Group separators in 'channels.conf' may now be given like ':@201 My Channels',
  where '@201' indicates the number to be given to the next channel. This can be
  used to create 'gaps' in the channel numbering (see 'man 5 vdr'). BE CAREFUL
  TO UPDATE YOUR 'timers.conf' ACCORDINGLY IF INSERTING THIS NEW FEATURE INTO YOUR
  'channels.conf' FILE!
- Frequency values for cable and terrestrial channels in 'channels.conf' can
  now be given either in MHz, kHz or Hz. The actual value given will be multiplied
  by 1000 until it is larger than 1000000.
- First step towards a "unique channel ID". The channel ID is a human readable
  string, made up from several parameters of the channel's definition in the file
  'channels.conf' (see man vdr(5) for details).
  In order for the "unique channel ID" to work, all channel definitions now must
  be unique with respect to the combination of their Source, Frequency and SID
  parameters. You may have to fix your 'channels.conf' manually if there are error
  messages in the log file when loading it. BE SURE TO MAKE A BACKUP COPY OF YOUR
  'channels.conf' AND 'timers.conf' FILE BEFORE SWITCHING TO THIS VERSION, AND CHECK
  VERY CAREFULLY WHETHER YOUR TIMERS ARE STILL SET TO THE RIGHT CHANNELS!
  When reading an existing 'timers.conf', the channels will be identified as before
  by their numbers. As soon as this file is written back, the channel numbers will
  be replaced by the channel IDs. After that it is possible to manually edit the
  'channels.conf' file and rearrange the channels without breaking the timers.
  Note that you can still define new timers manually by using the channel number.
  VDR will correctly identify the 'channel' parameter in a timer definition and
  use it as a channel number or a channel ID, respectively. Also, the SVDRP commands
  that return timer definitions will list them with channel numbers in order to
  stay compatible with existing applications.
  The channel ID is also used in the 'epg.data' file to allow EPG information from
  different sources to be stored, which would previously have been mixed up in case
  they were using the same 'service ID'. Note that the contents of an existing
  'epg.data' file from a previous version will be silently ignored, since it doesn't
  contain the new channel IDs. When inserting EPG data into VDR via SVDRP you now also
  need to use the channel IDs.
  Currently the EPG data received from the DVB data stream only uses the 'Source'
  and 'Service ID' part of the channel ID. This makes it work for channels with
  the same service IDs on different sources (like satellites, cable or terrestrial).
  However, it doesn't work yet if the service IDs are not unique within a specific
  source. This will be fixed later.
- Added three new fields to the lines in 'channels.conf': NID, TID and RID. NID and
  TID are the Network and Transport Stream IDs, respectively. RID is an additional ID
  that can be used to tell apart channels that would otherwise be indistinguishable.
  This is typically the case with radio channels, which may have the same NID, TID
  and SID, but different "radio IDs". This new field is therefore called RID ("radio
  ID"). Currently NID and TID are not yet used by VDR and should always be 0. The
  RID is actually used when building the "unique channel ID", so if you have channels
  in your 'channels.conf' file that cause error messages when loading, you can set
  the RIDs of these channels to different values.
  When reading an old 'channels.conf' these new fields will be automatically
  initialized to 0 and once the file is written back to disk they will be appended
  to the channel definitions.
- The "unique channel ID" now contains an optional 5th part (the RID). See man vdr(5).
- Modified LOF handling to allow for C-band reception.
- The PCR PID can now be set separately from the video PID. The syntax in the
  'channels.conf' file is, for example, ...:164+17:..., where 164 is the video PID
  and 17 is the PCR PID. The separator is a '+' sign, not a comma or semicolon as
  with the audio PIDs, because this is not an alternate PID, but rather an
  additional, necessary PID.

Recording:

- It is now possible to record several channels on the same transponder with "budget
  cards". VDR automatically attaches a recording timer to a card that already
  records on the appropriate transponder. How many parallel recordings can actually
  be done depends on the computer's performance. Currently any number of recordings
  gets attached to a card, so you should carefully plan your timers to not exceed
  the limit. On a K6-II/450 it was possible to record three channels from transponder
  12480 with a single WinTV NOVA-S.
- Timers that record two successive shows on the same channel may now overlap and
  will use the same DVB card. During the time where both timers record the data
  is simply saved to both files.
- Since several channels put very long strings into the Subtitle part of their
  EPG data, that string is now limited in length when used in a recording's
  file name.
- Timers are now processed even if an OSD menu is open (except for menus that
  explicitly handle timers).
- Implemented a "resume ID" which allows several users to each have their own
  resume.vdr files. This parameter can be set in the "Setup/Replay" menu (see
  MANUAL for details).
- Extended logging info when starting/stopping timers to show the channel number,
  start/stop time and the file name.
- Reduced the time to wait for EPG data when starting a recording to 3 seconds.
- Checking for duplicate recordings with the same file name and disabling the
  second timer.
- It is now possible to directly delete a timer that is currently recording.

SVDRP:

- The new SVDRP command CLRE can be used to clear the entire EPG data.
- The SVDRP command PUTE now triggers an immediate write of the 'epg.data' file.
- The SVDRP command CHAN now also accepts channel IDs.
- The new SVDRP command STAT can be used to request information about the disk
  usage.
- Now taking an active SVDRP connection into account when doing shutdown or
  housekeeping.

Conditional Access:

- Implemented "Link Layer" based CAM support. This allows access to the CAM menu
  and also to reset the CAM. Furthermore the CAM can now be in any slot of any
  DVB card, and there can be more than one CAM.
- If your particular CAM doesn't work with the Link Layer interface, you can
  still use the old firmware version ("-icam"), which does all the CAM handling
  by itself (see DVB/driver/av7110/README-firmware).

Misc:

- Removed compiler option '-m486' to make it work on non-Intel platforms.
- Changed setting of CXX and CXXFLAGS variables in Makefile, so that an externally
  defined value will be taken if present.
- New and improved internationalized OSD texts.
- The VDR version number is now displayed in the title line of the "Setup" menu.
- Changed the VFAT handling to allow users who normally use it but have forgotten
  to set it when compiling a new version of VDR to at least see their recordings
  made with VFAT enabled.
- Commands in the file 'commands.conf' can now have a '?' at the end of their
  title, which will result in a confirmation prompt before executing the
  command.
- If a command executed from the "Commands" menu doesn't return any output, the
  OSD will now be closed automatically.
- The new configuration file 'reccmds.conf' can be used to define commands that
  shall be executed from the "Recordings" menu; see MANUAL and 'man vdr(5)' for
  details.
- The Makefile now includes the file Make.config (if present in the VDR source
  directory), which allows the user to overwrite several settings with individual
  values. The VDR distribution archive does not contain this file in order to not
  overwrite a user defined file. There is a Make.config.template which contains the
  default values of the macros the user can overwrite.
- Extended the '-l' option to allow logging to LOG_LOCALn (n=0..7) by writing, for
  instance, '-l 3.7'.
- The character '|' in description texts of EPG records is now interpreted as a
  newline character.
- Now using "Doxygen" to generate source documentation.
  See INSTALL for information how to do this. Some function descriptions have
  already been adapted to Doxygen, more will follow.
- Added VDRVERSNUM to config.h, which can be used by the preprocessor to check the
  actual VDR version.
