 Klaus forwarded this to vdr-portal.de. I think vdr 2.1.8 will include a patch 
to add

 ARGSDIR = $(VIDEODIR)/conf.d

 to the ONEDIR case. Because vdr reads all *.conf files from ARGSDIR, you 
cannot use VIDEODIR because of setup.conf,
channels.conf etc.

 And I should have documented this feature in more detail (and I will do), as 
time permits next week.

Lars.

[vdr] [ANNOUNCE] VDR developer version 2.1.8

2015-02-01 Thread Klaus Schmidinger

VDR developer version 2.1.8 is now available at

  ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-2.1.8.tar.bz2

A 'diff' against the previous version is available at

  ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-2.1.7-2.1.8.diff

MD5 checksums:

1d2751e87def9b18b448513f24e635e9  vdr-2.1.8.tar.bz2
0487e037278f6f6684a7933674910f05  vdr-2.1.7-2.1.8.diff

WARNING:


This is a *developer* version. Even though *I* use it in my productive
environment, I strongly recommend that you only use it under controlled
conditions and for testing and debugging.


The changes since version 2.1.7:

- Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto).
- Fixed "warning: invalid suffix on literal" with GCC 4.8 and C++11 (thanks to 
Joerg
  Bornkessel).
- Fixed the link to "svdrpsend (1)" in the vdr.1 man page (thanks to Chris 
Mayo).
- Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Updated the Romanian OSD texts (thanks to Lucian Muresan).
- Added functionality based on the "jumpplay" patch from Torsten Kunkel and 
Thomas
  Günther:
  + The new option "Setup/Replay/Pause replay when jumping to a mark" can be 
used to
turn off pausing replay when jumping to an editing mark with the '9' key.
  + The new option "Setup/Replay/Skip edited parts" can be used to 
automatically skip
the edited parts of a recording during replay, without the need to actually 
cut
the recording.
  + The new option "Setup/Replay/Pause replay at last mark" can be used to make 
replay
go into Pause mode when it has reached the last "end" mark.
  + The '8' key for testing an edited sequence now also jumps to the next *end*
mark if "Setup/Replay/Skip edited parts" is active. This allows for testing 
edits
in recordings that have actually been cut, as well as recordings that have 
not
been cut, in case "Skip edited parts" is enabled.
- Added support for "Satellite Channel Routing" (SCR) according to EN50607, also
  known as "JESS" (thanks to Manfred Völkel and Frank Neumann).
- The keys '1' and '3' can now be used in replay mode to position an editing 
mark
  in "binary" mode (based on a patch from Rolf Ahrenberg, with modifications by 
Helmut
  Auer). See MANUAL, section "Editing a Recording".
- The Yellow button in the "Setup/CAM" menu can now be used to put the selected
  CAM into a mode where it remains assigned to a device that is tuned to the 
current
  channel until the smart card it contains is activated and the CAM thus starts 
to
  descramble (see MANUAL, section "Setup/CAM" for details).
- Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov).
- Added ARGSDIR to the ONEDIR section of Make.config.template (suggested by 
Derek
  Kelly).
- Made cRecording::GetResume() public (suggested by Stefan Braun).
- Fixed setting the read index in cDvbPlayer::Goto() in case Still is false.
- The function cDvbPlayer::Goto() now automatically calls Play() if Still is 
false.
- Added support for LCN (Logical Channel Numbers), which plugins may use to sort
  channels (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).

Have fun!

[vdr] 15 years of VDR - time for a new stable version!

2015-02-01 Thread Klaus Schmidinger

On February 19 (less than 3 weeks from now) it's going to be 15 years
since the release of the very first revision of VDR. To celebrate this
anniversary I'm planning on releasing a new stable version 2.2.0 on that
very day.

In order to help making this new version as stable as possible, please
test the developer version 2.1.8 that I have just released today very
thoroughly and report any bugs you might find. There will be one more
developer version (2.1.9) which I plan to release next sunday (Feb 8).

I would also appreciate if you could provide any missing translations
for the OSD texts. Here's a list of all *.po files that need to be
updated, followed by the number of missing translations:

ar.po: 49
ca_ES.po: 49
cs_CZ.po: 49
da_DK.po: 182
el_GR.po: 245
es_ES.po: 49
et_EE.po: 10
fr_FR.po: 49
hr_HR.po: 182
hu_HU.po: 49
it_IT.po: 10
lt_LT.po: 49
mk_MK.po: 49
nl_NL.po: 49

Thanks to everyone for using VDR and contributing to its development,
and for keeping this project alive for 15 years!

$(VIDEODIR)/conf.d works fine. That's a little cleaner anyways so
ONEDIR still works as intended, yet conf.d specific files aren't mixed
together with all other *.conf.

Thanks!
