So, here's the straw poll:
Should there be a stable version 1.6.0 now, based on what's in version 1.5.14, but without DVB-S2 or even H.264 support?
Yes or No?
I would prefer some other features like ttxtsub before DVB-S2 and H.264 support but as this is not an option I vote for:
Yes, now! The driver issue is a perfect situation to make a cut in version numbering and release a stable version. (And there will be enough questions about UTF-8 support/configuration problems. I do not want to imagine what will happen to the mailings list and vdr-portal if a version is released with so many things changed in one step like UTF-8, multiproto drivers and maybe other coming huge modifications. Let's take it step by step)
