[linux-dvb] Video Disk Recorder version 0.71

[Klaus Schmidinger <Klaus.Schmidinger@cadsoft.de>]

The new version 0.71 of the Video Disk Recorder project
is now available at 

    http://www.cadsoft.de/people/kls/vdr/download.htm

NOTE: For those of you who have already downloaded the 0.71pre10 archive:
      version 0.71 is identical to 0.71pre10, so you don't need to download
      the "official" 0.71 archive.

- VDR now requires that you use DVB driver version 0.8.2 or higher.
- The new compile time option REMOTE=NONE can be used to compile VDR
  without any remote control support.
- The new command line option -D can be used to define which DVB interfaces
  a certain instance of VDR shall use.
- The "Left" and "Right" keys are now used to page up and down in lists.
- The "Main" and "Commands" menu now support "hotkeys".
- The channel data in 'channels.conf' now contains the teletext PID.
- The EPG scanner now scans each transponder only once per cycle.
- Deleted recordings are now automatically removed from disk after a while.
- The "Now", "Next" and "Schedule" menus now remember the current channel and
  restore the list when switching between them.
- The "Green" button in the "Recordings" menu can now be used to rewind a
  recording and play it from the very beginning.
- New SVDRP command MESG to display a short message on the OSD.
- SVDRP now has a timeout after which the connection is automatically closed.
- The compile time switch VFAT can be used to make VDR avoid the ':' character
  in file names (VFAT can't handle them).
- Support for DVB-C (cable).
- A value of '0' for the EPGScanTimeout setup parameter now completely turns
  off scanning for EPG data on both single and multiple card systems.
- New setup parameter "PrimaryLimit" that allows to prevent timers from using
  the primary DVB interface in multi card systems.
- Watchdog function that makes VDR exit in case the main program loop does not
  respond within a certain time.

Have fun!
