Hi,

I'm pleased to announce maintenance release 0.7.5:

http://home.vr-web.de/~rnissl/vdr-xine-0.7.5.tgz

Due to the changes in xine's CVS I've released this version earlier than I had planned. As a result, the known issue concerning the delay in playback when switching to trick speed mode is still not solved, but maybe it has improved a little bit.

2005-08-14: Version 0.7.5

- Added documentation about gxine's VDR support to MANUAL (thanks to Darren Salt for supplying the patch). - Fixed xine-plugin to update audio stream bitrate and decoder. - Removed singleton enforcement of xine-plugin as it caused problems with xine's post plugin management (suggested by Darren Salt). - Added support to select left / right audio channel by audio post plugin 'vdr_audio'. - Added audio post plugin support to xine-ui and fbxine which was needed for the new audio post plugin vdr_audio. - Renamed video post plugin 'vdr' to 'vdr_video' to match naming scheme, but it also registered as 'vdr' to maintain compatibility. - Created audio post plugin 'upmix_mono' to turn a mono stream into a stereo one with identical data on both sides (requested by Lucian Muresan). - Fixed some endianness problems in OSD code (thanks to Carsten Rietzschel for reporting this issue). - Fixed some compiler warnings with gcc-4.0.1 and gcc-4.1 (thanks to Eric OUEDRAOGO for reporting this issue). - Updated plugin to match interface changes in VDR-1.3.27 (thanks to C.Y.M for reporting this issue). - Fixed implementation of cDevice::Clear() which didn't ensure that really all data (i. e. the data which is just in the FIFO or socket) get's cleared. This might improve switching to trickspeed mode. - Updated MANUAL about using vdr_audio post plugin.

For this release I suggest the following xine sources:

Highly recommended is the following patch:

Enjoy.

Bye.
