[vdr] VDR developer version 1.1.28



VDR developer version 1.1.28 is now available at

    ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.1.28.tar.bz2

The changes since version 1.1.27:

- Using masks in EIT filtering to reduce the number of filters (thanks to Andreas
  Schultz).
- Fixed handling Ca descriptors (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt).
- Now only those Ca descriptors are sent to a CAM that are actually understood
  by that CAM.
- Re-enabled CAM communication during replay and on non-Ca channels. This requires
  a DVB driver with firmware version 2613 or later (see below).
- It is now possible to do simultaneous recording and replay with a single DVB
  card, even with encrypted channels. This requires the use of the Link Layer
  firmware, version 2613 or higher; the -icam firmware is still limited to live
  encrypted channels only. Finally we have time shift for encrypted channels on
  single card systems!
- Enhanced detection of pending user I/O from CAMs to avoid sluggish reaction
  to remote control keypresses.
- Implemented "pause live video". You can now press "Menu/Yellow" or "Pause" on
  your remote control while watching live video to start an instant recording
  of the current programme and immediately start replaying that recording.

This version requires the DVB driver from

  ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/linux-dvb.2003-04-21.tar.bz2

which is the CVS 'HEAD' version from 2003-04-21, made available as a complete
archive for your convenience.

Note that there are still some issues with switching between live viewing and
Transfer Mode (especially on single card systems), and with starting a recording
on the primary device. Also, there are no precautions yet against starting the
same recording twice, so please be careful especially with the "pause live video"
function. These things will be targetted soon...

Have fun!
