		<li>Made VDR compile with <a
		href="http://www.dtek.chalmers.se/~dvd/">libdvdread-0.9.1</a>
		(thanks to Andreas Schultz).  Note that you now _need_ version
		0.9.1 of libdvdread to compile VDR with DVD support!</li>
		
		<li>Several fixes to the replay mode display (thanks to Stefan
		  Huelswitt): no more replay mode display when pressing the
		  "Green" or "Yellow" button (Skip +/-60s); fixed timeout when
		  pressing '0' to set an editing mark while the progress display
		  is not shown; mode display is shown after progress display is
		  closed; pressing "Ok" while the mode display is on brings up the
		  progress display; no more unnecessary display of "normal play
		  mode".</li>
		
		<li>Supplying the new frontend parameter 'Inversion' (currently
		  it is always set to INVERSION_AUTO, which should work with all
		  channels on Astra).</li>
		
		<li>Removing unnecessary double quotes from EPG Subtitle in EPGBugfixLevel >=1. </li>
		
		<li>EPG info is now updated if the contents changes but the ID remains the same.</li>
		
		<li>Fixed handling SVDRP commands whith more than one blank between the command
		  word and the options.  </li>
		
		<li>The current volume setting is now saved to setup.conf and restored at the
		  next program start.    </li>
		
		<li>New command line option '-r' to define a command that gets called before and
		  after each recording (see INSTALL for details).</li>
		
		<li>Implemented a check to see whether the system time is running linearly. </li>
		
		<li>Writing the current time (as seen by VDR) into the log file
		  when starting a timer recording (this may help debugging cases
		  where timers don't start at the expected time). </li>
		
		<li>Made the volume, mute and power keys work when a menu is
		  active, too (thanks to Matthias Weingart). </li>
