VDR maintenance patch 1.4.4-1 is now available at
ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.4.4-1.diff
This is a 'diff' against version 1.4.4.
Small fixes to the officially released VDR versions will be first made available as "maintenance patches" in the Developer directory, so that they can be reviewed and tested before a new official release is published.
So please apply the above patch and report whether it works (or if it causes any new problems).
The changes since version 1.4.4:
- Some improvements to the man pages (thanks to Ville Skyttä). - Fixed a possible segfault in cSkins::Message() (thanks to Udo Richter). - Made the getskyepg.pl script of the 'sky' plugin send a user agent message to the server, according to the rules at http://bleb.org/tv/data/listings. If your version of 'wget' doesn't support the -U option to set the user agent, use the new option -U of getskyepg.pl to have the information added to the URL as a query string. - The getskyepg.pl script now replaces "&" with "&". - Fixed a possible crash in remux.c on 64-bit machines (thanks to Reinhard Nissl). - Fixed a typo in the change to the "Use small font" setup option in version 1.3.47 in the HISTORY and CONTRIBUTORS file (reported by Andreas Brugger). - Added a missing 'const' to cRecordingInfo::ChannelID() (reported by Andreas Brugger). This required the APIVERSION to be increased, so plugins will have to be recompiled. - Now calling cPluginManager::Active() only if VDR is really trying to shut down, and waiting for 5 minutes before calling it again (thanks to Jörg Wendel for reporting that cPlugin::Active() was called too often, and to Udo Richter for some hints on how to improve this). - Replaced 'unsigned long long' with 'uint32_t' and 'uint64' with 'uint64_t' to avoid problems on 64-bit machines.
Have fun!

Sorry, my previous message contained a typo. It should have been

Whats with that filename? Any reason you're not following the usual vdr-1.4.4-1.diff naming scheme?
I guess by now you've read my posting that immediatly followed the announcement ;-)
GEEE - that was a complete messup by myself. Sorry about that. Of course the filename should have been vdr-1.4.4-1.
That's what happens if you edit old announcement messages and send them for new ones...

Three changes that make VDR again usable for me !!!
Thank you very much :)

I think we should all by Klaus a beer today! :)
Thanks, but looking at all the silly mistakes I made today, I guess I had one too many already ;-)
