nathan@0
    41
21.09.2006: Version 0.9.15 development (vdr 1.4.1-4)
nathan@0
    42
- NOTE: This version has been tested with VDR 1.4.x only. It might be still
nathan@0
    43
  compatible with VDR 1.2.x or 1.3.x, but this wasn't verified.
nathan@0
    44
- In MPlayer filebrowser you can display a summary text file with key "0".
nathan@0
    45
  Filename convention: video filename extended with ".summary", e.g.
nathan@0
    46
  "somefile.avi" -> "somefile.avi.summary". Summary files are not shown in the
nathan@0
    47
  browsers filelist. (was in 0.9.14 already, but was missing in history)
nathan@0
    48
- Using ".txt" and ".nfo" as alternative extention for MPlayer summary file
nathan@0
    49
  display. Suggested by Soeren Sonnenburg.
nathan@0
    50

nathan@0
    67
  Reported by Soeren Sonnenburg.
nathan@0

    71
- Fixed delay when MPlayer process exits at EOF. Reported by Daniel Karsubka.
nathan@0
    72

nathan@0
    73
  doesn't work with VDR 1.4.1 and 1.4.1-1.
nathan@0
    74
- Fixed button translations with vdr 1.3.38+. Thanks to Ville Skyttä.
nathan@0
    75

- Updated finish translations. Provided by Rolf Ahrenberg.
nathan@0
    79
nathan@0
    80
08.01.2006: Version 0.9.14 development (vdr 1.2.6/1.3.38)
nathan@0
    81
- Fixed VDR hanging for some seconds when skipping songs and fixed pause mode 
nathan@0
    82
  freezing live background when using OSS output. Reported by Andy Grobb.
nathan@0
    83
- Now muting DVB audio while using OSS output.
nathan@0
    84
- Finaly restored the function of the back key (jumps directly to plugin main
nathan@0
    85
  menu) (vdr >= 1.3.32 only). Thanks to Sascha Volkenandt for the hint.
nathan@0
    86
- During MPlayer playback, the name of the current videofile is now parsed from
nathan@0
    87
  the MPlayer output. If you're using some kind of playlist hack, the MPlayer
nathan@0
    88
  plugin will now report the correct filename. Based on suggestions from Ronny
nathan@0
    89
  Kornexl.
nathan@0
    90
- Extended the example mplayer.sh file to show how a playlist can be passed to
nathan@0
    91
  MPLayer.
nathan@0
    92
- Fixed segfault in progress display with skincurses. Thanks to Pasi Juppo for
nathan@0
    93
  reporting.
nathan@0
    94
- Adapted to the API changes in vdr 1.3.38.
nathan@0
    95
nathan@0
    96
31.07.2005: Version 0.9.13 development (vdr 1.2.6/1.3.24)
nathan@0
    97
- Moved OSD position selection to plugin setup menu (as before this works for
nathan@0
    98
  non-skined vdr <1.3.7 only).
nathan@0
    99
- Removed DVD navigation from MPlayer slavemode.
nathan@0
   100
- Added support for configurable keys (0-9) in MPlayer slavemode. The slave
nathan@0
   101
  command can be entered in the plugin setup menu and is sent to MPlayer during
nathan@0
   102
  playback if the key is pressed.
nathan@0
   103
- Added support to display a summary file (plain ascii) in the MPlayer browser.
nathan@0
   104
  If you are on a video file, press '0' to display the summary. The summary file
nathan@0
   105
  has to be named like the video file but with ".summary" appended (e.g.
nathan@0
   106
  video.mpeg -> video.mpeg.summary).
nathan@0
   107
- New MP3 plugin setup option to keep the selection menu opened after selection.
nathan@0
   108
  Suggested by Mikko Mäkinen.
nathan@0
   109
- Fixed ringbuffer timeouts in network code.
nathan@0
   110
- Fixed ID3 V2 tag handling. Unusual big tags caused the ID3 scanner to mark the
nathan@0
   111
  file as bad. Now correctly skipping ID3 tags during playback too. Reported by
nathan@0
   112
  Olaf Henkel.
nathan@0
   113
- Prevent writing to a broken pipe in mplayer slave control. Reported by Gerhard
nathan@0
   114
  Steiner.
nathan@0
   115
- Fixed passing AID 0 to mplayer.sh. To allow MPlayer autoselect the audio
nathan@0
   116
  stream, set AID to -1 (this can only be achieved by entering 0 and than
nathan@0
   117
  pressing left).
nathan@0
   118
- Improved creation of LPCM frames. Based on the changes in muggle 0.1.8.
nathan@0
   119
- Updated french translations. Provided by Jerome Rousset.
nathan@0
   120
nathan@0
   121
17.03.2005: Version 0.9.12 development (vdr 1.2.6/1.3.22)
nathan@0
   122
- Fixed background image convert hanging a long time and some other oddities.
nathan@0
   123
- Now filtering image files in the song browser display.
nathan@0
   124
- Extended include field in mp3sources.conf to allow multiple patterns seperated
nathan@0
   125
  by '/' e.g. *.mp3/*.ogg/*.txt
nathan@0
   126
- Enhanced image convert script for NTSC format. Thanks to Cym.
nathan@0
   127
- Fixed list sorting for vdr versions before 1.3.15.
nathan@0
   128
- Fixed MPlayer slavemode progress display reappearing on user requested close.
nathan@0
   129
- Now explicitly setting C locale in example image convert script. Thanks to
nathan@0
   130
  Tobias Grimm.
nathan@0
   131
- Changed the location where cStatus::MsgReplaying is called. Helps to prevent a
nathan@0
   132
  crash in graphlcd. In my opinion cControl API should be called from the
nathan@0
   133
  foreground thread only. Reported by Wolfgang Fritz.
nathan@0
   134
- Fixed a huge bunch of typos in the documentation. Thanks to Ville Skyttä.
nathan@0
   135
- Updated finish translations. Provided by Rolf Ahrenberg & Ville Skyttä.
nathan@0
   136
nathan@0
   137
20.02.2005: Version 0.9.11 development (vdr 1.2.6/1.3.21)
nathan@0
   138
- Now using propper readdir() to scan directory contents rather than the
nathan@0
   139
  external find & sort tools.
nathan@0
   140
- Added cover image display during MP3 replay. See the README on how this has
nathan@0
   141
  to be configured. If you was using the old image patch, be aware that there
nathan@0
   142
  are now new commandline options and that the layout of the cache directory
nathan@0
   143
  has changed. Initial patch made by Eloy, currently maintained by Tobias Grimm
nathan@0
   144
  for ctvdr-debian package.
nathan@0
   145
nathan@0
   146
06.02.2005: Version 0.9.10 development (vdr 1.2.6/1.3.20)
nathan@0
   147
- Fixed MPlayer resume for filenames/directories containing whitespace
nathan@0
   148
  characters.
nathan@0
   149
- Fixed vdr 1.3.18+ compatibility with BROKEN_PCM=1.
nathan@0
   150
- Fixed MP3 replay with vdr 1.3.19+. Thanks to Tobias Grimm.
nathan@0
   151
- Fixed huge memory leak in song/decoder handling (approx 22kB/song). Thanks to
nathan@0
   152
  the great valgrind tool.
nathan@0
   153
- Fixed some mismatched new[]/delete calls.
nathan@0
   154
- Reduced MP3 decoder memory footprint (stopped state, from 22k to 308).
nathan@0
   155
- Fixed crashes on status display from background threads (e.g. connect to
nathan@0
   156
  streamserver). An asyncronous status display was added.
nathan@0
   157
- Updated finnish translations. Provided by Rolf Ahrenberg.
nathan@0
   158
- Updated recommended library versions to libmad/libid3tag 0.15.1b and
nathan@0
   159
  libsndfile 1.0.11.
nathan@0
   160
- Updated patch for cdfs 0.5c. Correct tracksize for last audio track if a data
nathan@0
   161
  track follows. Thanks to Merten Falk.
nathan@0
   162
nathan@0
   163
10.01.2005: Version 0.9.9 development (vdr 1.2.6/1.3.18)
nathan@0
   164
- Added global MPlayer resume file. This is used if the directory of the video
nathan@0
   165
  file is not writeable. The global resume file is located in the video
nathan@0
   166
  directory.
nathan@0
   167
- Added DVD navigation to MPlayer slavemode. Due to this some other functions
nathan@0
   168
  have been moved to new keys. See MANUAL file.
nathan@0
   169
- Added some glue for vdr 1.3.18.
nathan@0
   170
- Fixed saving of MPlayer setup option "ResumeMode". You can select if you want
nathan@0
   171
  "local/global" or "global only" resume files too.
nathan@0
   172
- Fixed thread deadlock in playmanager and non-blocking libsndfile reader
nathan@0
   173
  (appearently only with some pthread versions) and high cpu usage of
nathan@0
   174
  background scan thread when using libsndfile decoder. Thanks to Tobias Grimm
nathan@0
   175
  for debugging.
nathan@0
   176
- Removed workarounds for broken PCM handling in firmware (PCM pause &
nathan@0
   177
  samplerate changes). This requires DVB firmware 261d-rc6 or newer. If you
nathan@0
   178
  prefer to use an older firmware, you can use the make commandline option
nathan@0
   179
  BROKEN_PCM=1 to enable old behaviour.
nathan@0
   180
- Fixed handling of sym-links in source base path and playlists.
nathan@0
   181
- Fixed path generation for "wide" sym-links.
nathan@0
   182
- Replaced non-reentrant glibc functions with reentrant versions.
nathan@0
   183
- Updated finnish translations. Provided by Rolf Ahrenberg.
nathan@0
   184
nathan@0
   185
28.11.2004: Version 0.9.8 development (vdr 1.2.6/1.3.14)
nathan@0
   186
- Added MPlayer audiostream selection. Audiostream is selected with the blue
nathan@0
   187
  key in the MPlayer menu. The selected stream is passed to the mplayer.sh
nathan@0
   188
  script as "AID x" where x is the stream number. For compatibility reasons the
nathan@0
   189
  AID parameter is passed after the SLAVE parameter. Due to this, parameter
nathan@0
   190
  positions aren't fixed any more. You have to implement a flexible parameter
nathan@0
   191
  parsing in mplayer.sh. See the example file how this can be done. Based on a
nathan@0
   192
  patch from VDR-Portal.
nathan@0
   193
- Fixed segfault in shuffle code when adding a single song to the current
nathan@0
   194
  playlist. Reported by Malte Schröder.
nathan@0
   195
- Fixed segfault in network code (pthread_cancel). Reported by Malte Schröder.
nathan@0
   196
- Fixed mounting/unmounting sources in MPlayer plugin. Reported by Guy Roussin.
nathan@0
   197
- Fixed status display with open (classic) progress display for vdr 1.3.7+.
nathan@0
   198
- Added russian translations (vdr >= 1.3.2). Provided by Vyacheslav Dikonov.
nathan@0
   199
nathan@0
   200
24.09.2004: Version 0.9.7 development (vdr 1.2.6/1.3.12)
nathan@0
   201
- Added non-blocking reader thread to libsndfile decoder.
nathan@0
   202
- Fixed backward skip and progress display. Reported by Burkhardt Petermann.
nathan@0
   203
- Fixed some locking problems in play manager.
nathan@0
   204
- Fixed handling of samplerate changes for DVB & OSS output.
nathan@0
   205
nathan@0
   206
13.09.2004: Version 0.9.6 development (vdr 1.2.6/1.3.12)
nathan@0
   207
- Changed the way how the player maintains the ringbuffer to prevent audio
nathan@0
   208
  dropouts while background scan is active.
nathan@0
   209
- Increased player ringbuffer size and take care of ringbuffer contents when
nathan@0
   210
  skipping forward.
nathan@0
   211
- Prevent full file scan on MP3 decoder check.
nathan@0
   212
- Flushing playlist on playback abort to unblock removable sources. This also
nathan@0
   213
  prevents the background scanner to continue after playback was aborted.
nathan@0
   214
- Removed a buffer-to-buffer copy in DVB output.
nathan@0
   215
- Fixed several race conditions where the play manager could discard the
nathan@0
   216
  currently played or scanned song.
nathan@0
   217
- Added a patch for cdfs 0.5c to correct discid calculation (applies to cdfs
nathan@0
   218
  2.4.20 as well).
nathan@0
   219
nathan@0
   220
07.09.2004: Version 0.9.5 development (vdr 1.2.6/1.3.12)
nathan@0
   221
- Resolved several oddities in progress display if the player is idle.
nathan@0
   222
- Now removing trailing '/' from source definitions in *sources.conf and warn
nathan@0
   223
  the user about this.
nathan@0
   224
- Outdated entries in the MPlayer resume file are removed now.
nathan@0
   225
- Fixed playback start delay in case the background scanner is working on the
nathan@0
   226
  current song.
nathan@0
   227
- Fixed progress display for net streams. Reported by Wolfgang Fritz.
nathan@0
   228
- Fixed MPlayer rewind button (broken by sources fix in 0.9.4). Reported by
nathan@0
   229
  Sebastian Kemper.
nathan@0
   230
- Updated finnish translations. Provided by Rolf Ahrenberg.
nathan@0
   231
- Added a patch that prevents the VDR core from aborting the MP3 player in
nathan@0
   232
  black background mode (see patches subdirectory).
nathan@0
   233
nathan@0
   234
03.09.2004: Version 0.9.4 development (vdr 1.2.6/1.3.12)
nathan@0
   235
- Added a queue manager. During playback you can add new songs to the playlist
nathan@0
   236
  by selecting them from the MP3 menu/browser. To flush the playlist you have
nathan@0
   237
  to stop the player for now. You can add new songs even if the player is kept
nathan@0
   238
  idle (see below).
nathan@0
   239
- Replaced setup option "mute at end of list" with "abort player at end of
nathan@0
   240
  list". If you set this option to "no" and the end of playlist is reached, the
nathan@0
   241
  player is kept idle. To restart playback select a song to restart from there
nathan@0
   242
  or "up" to restart from the begining.
nathan@0
   243
- Background scan (formerly known as ID3 prescan) now also can determine the
nathan@0
   244
  song level. Note that level scan requires to decode the complete song. This is
nathan@0
   245
  done on a seperate thread with nice 5 but nevertheless it needs CPU cycles. If
nathan@0
   246
  your system crawls, you can set background scan to "ID3 only" in the plugin
nathan@0
   247
  setup menu.
nathan@0
   248
- Added commanline option -C to specify the directory to place the id3cache
nathan@0
   249
  file. The default is to place the file into the video directory.
nathan@0
   250
- MPlayer resume feature can now be disabled in the plugin setup menu. No resume
nathan@0
   251
  file is created in this case.
nathan@0
   252
- Another fix to the OSS output. Now using little-endian samples only (which
nathan@0
   253
  should be supported by all soundcard drivers).
nathan@0
   254
- Fixed mounting/unmounting of MPlayer sources (Bug introduced in 0.9.2). Thanks
nathan@0
   255
  to Bill Blough for spotting this one.
nathan@0
   256
- Updated finnish translations. Provided by Rolf Ahrenberg.
nathan@0
   257
nathan@0
   258
03.07.2004: Version 0.9.3 development (vdr 1.2.6/1.3.11)
nathan@0
   259
- If a (single) selected file in the MP3 browser is actualy a playlist (*.m3u),
nathan@0
   260
  load the playlist rather than trying to play the file. This allows to have
nathan@0
   261
  playlists in subdirectories (by now only selectable from the browser not from
nathan@0
   262
  the main menu). Note that song paths must be either absolute or relative to
nathan@0
   263
  the location of the playlist file. Suggested by Helmut Auer.

nathan@0
   390

nathan@0
   391
  one subdirectory level is allowed in the database directory (usually the
nathan@0
   392
  category name). This follows the common xmcd database layout.
nathan@0

  artist tag was played.
nathan@0

nathan@0
   414

   418

nathan@0
   420
  apply the included patch to the base source.
nathan@0
   421
- Changed the way mplayer.sh is called. Now it shouldn't be necessary to give
nathan@0
   422
  the full path to the script if the script is in the current PATH.
nathan@0
   423
- Added MANUAL a file.
nathan@0
   424
