[ANNOUNCE] VDR developer version 1.5.9
by Klaus Schmidinger 27 Aug '07

27 Aug '07

VDR developer version 1.5.9 is now available at ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.5.9.tar.bz2 A 'diff' against the previous developer version is available at ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.5.8-1.5.9.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 1.5.8: - Fixed handling locale directories with a large number of entries (thanks to Anssi Hannula). - Updated Turkish language texts (thanks to Oktay Yolgeçen). - Fixed stripping the context in I18nTranslate() (reported by Christian Wieninger). - Fixed detecting whether a particular locale is actually supported. - Added a note about LANG having to be set to a valid locale in INSTALL (suggested by Matthias Fechner). - Fixed some compiler warnings with gcc-4.2.0 (thanks to Matthias Schwarzott). - Fixed setting the locale file name in i18n-to-gettext.pl (thanks to Matthias Schwarzott). - Changed the default for LOCDIR in Makefile and Make.config.template to "./locale", so that internationalization works by default when running VDR from within its source directory (suggested by Anssi Hannula). - Added the new i18n macro trVDR(), which can be used by plugins to mark texts they want to reuse from VDR's core translations (suggested by Matthias Becker). - VDR now uses the default configuration directory as defined in the CONFDIR varable in the Makefile (thanks to Thomas Schmidt). - The SVDRP command LSTC can now list the channels with group separators if the option ':groups' is given (thanks to Andreas Mair). - Added a missing error report to cCuttingThread::Action() (thanks to Udo Richter). - There can now be more than one OSD at the same time. At any given time, however, only one of them can be active (and thus visible). This is to allow displaying things like subtitles in an easy way. A cOsd therefore now has a "Level", and only the OSD with the smallest level will be displayed. The level 0 OSD is special, and there can only be one with this level. If there is more than one OSD with a particular level, only the one that was created first will be displayed. Plugins that provide an OSD need to adjust their cOsdProvider::CreateOsd() function to hand through the Level. - Fixed checking for ttDolbyLast in cDevice::SetCurrentAudioTrack() (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). Note that the "multiple OSD" change currently has no visible effect yet, but it is a necessary preparation for displaying subtitles, which will be addressed in the next developer version. *When reporting problems, please don't reply to this message!* Create a new thread instead, using a descriptive subject! Have fun! Klaus

[PATCH] Small fix for short date format
by Lauri Nurmi 26 Aug '07

26 Aug '07

Hello, The short date format in VDR currently is "mm.yy", while such a date should actually have two periods, i.e. "mm.yy.", for example "26.08.". (That is because both the day and month are ordinal numbers.) The attached patch adds the missing period to DayDateTime() in tools.c. Applies to both 1.4.7 and 1.5.9. Regards, -LN

Hi Klaus, when trying to compile the new vdr, skincurses reports the following error: make[1]: Entering directory `/dvb/vdr-1.5.9/PLUGINS/src/skincurses' g++ -g -ggdb -O2 -Wall -Woverloaded-virtual -fPIC -c -D_GNU_SOURCE -DPLUGIN_NAME_I18N='"skincurses"' -I../../../include skincurses.c skincurses.c: In constructor `cCursesOsd::cCursesOsd(int, int)': skincurses.c:76: error: no matching function for call to `cOsd::cOsd(int&, int& )' ../../../include/vdr/osd.h:247: error: candidates are: cOsd::cOsd(const cOsd&) ../../../include/vdr/osd.h:259: error: cOsd::cOsd(int, int, unsigned int) It seems that there is an modification for the new level-osd-feature missing.

subtitles plugin: cannot record subtitles
by Davide 26 Aug '07

26 Aug '07

Hello everybody I have a strange problem with the dvb subtitles plugin. On the BBC Prime channel BBC Prime;Globecast UK:11116:vC34:S13.0E:27500:6001:6011:6041:500:14601:318:13000:0 the subtitles work fine during live tv, but I'm unable to see them while replaying recordings from that channel. If I try to demux it with projectx it looks like the subtitles are missing from the recording. Here are the relevant setting for the plugin from setup.conf subtitles.BackgroundTransparency = 0 subtitles.Delay = 0 subtitles.Dxr3comp = 0 subtitles.Enabled = 1 subtitles.ForegroundTransparency = 0 subtitles.HearingImpaired = 0 subtitles.Language = 0 subtitles.Language2 = 3 subtitles.Mainmenu = 0 subtitles.Offset = 0 subtitles.Record = 1 subtitles.Sync = 1 subtitles.VideoFormat = 0 I'm using vdr 1.5.6-1devel1 and subtitles 0.5.0-5 from e-tobi.net. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Regards, Davide

[ANNOUNCE] po2i18n - converter for plugin backwards compatibility
by Udo Richter 26 Aug '07

26 Aug '07

Hi list, I've uploaded a little perl script and instructions to convert from the new gettext based po i18n files to the old i18n.c system of VDR 1.5.6 and earlier. By using this script its easy to use the new po based i18n system for translations, and still compile the plugins with full i18n support all the way back to VDR 1.2.0. The script can either be used manually to generate the i18n.c file from the po files and a template, or automatically as part of the build process. Get it here: http://www.udo-richter.de/vdr/scripts.html#po2i18n http://www.udo-richter.de/vdr/scripts.en.html#po2i18n Cheers, Udo
