Dear Fritz!Box- and VDR-Users,
a new version of the Fritz!Box Plugin is available at http://joachim-wilke.de/index.htm?alias=vdr-fritz
- - -
The Fritz!Box Plugin connects to your Fritz!Box to inform you about incoming calls. The plugin can automatically mute or pause VDR when a call comes in.
Via VDR's main menu you can browse your Fritz!Box phone book, the call lists and initiate calls out of all lists.

The last changes are: 2007-11-11: Version 0.0.9 - added cHttpClient for handling HTTP requests; removing end of file detection in caller classes - improved cCallList parser to work around lines starting with '#' (as found in current Fritz!Box Labor Firmware version) - call list now works with Fritz!Box Beta-Firmware 29.04.44-9163 (reported by Ryker [20]) - this may fix problems with firmware CH/A FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7140 Version 39.04.43 too (reported by Joe [19]) - Fritz!Box phonebook supports new Fritz!Box Beta-Firmware 29.04.44-9163 (only one number per name is supported for now) - all communication to the Fritz!Box Webinterface is now protected with a mutex to avoid conflicts of concurrent request from different threads - retry delay on communication failures is now increased up to one hour to avoid flooding the syslog - added missing translation in i18n.c to support still-popular old versions of vdr (reported by Torsten [17]) - some firmware version do not sort the telephone book, the plugin now sorts the entries itself - removing '!' prefix when displaying Fritz!Box telephonebook VIP-entries (suggested by Oliver [18]) - supporting multiple phone numbers per entry in newest Fritz!Box firmware versions
added new column in phonebook view, marking (H)ome, (M)obile and (W)ork on incoming calls this type is shown as well this is ignored for older firmware versions
- fixed a segfault when accessing the plugins main menu with no telephonebook selected (reported by Thomas [16]) - the call details menu now issues a reverse lookup if the name of the caller is not known yet
