[Bearbeiten] Channel handling

New: Channel names with more than 25 chars are possible. You need to input them manually or do an update channel scan to get them into a present channel list.

Please check your favorites and timers if you change the channel names!

New: The Audio track per channel, Volume per channel and EPG-settings (EIT, intern, extern) are no longer stored in the database. Instead it is stored in the channels.dat.

On first start the old settings are converted and the database tables removed. The handling for the users does not change.

If you use the recording service (<1.4.x) you'll need the current version.

New: Vista: if VMR9 is not selected in the preview options the PiP uses EVR as default.
New: PiP is not closed anymore if fast channel switching is not activated.
New: PiP is not closed anymore on starting media playback. Sound can be exchanged, video not.

New: AAC is supported.
Fix: close PiP disabled sometimes the volume in the main window.

[Bearbeiten] Hardware

New: If a BDA device is unplugged (usb/firewire/pci) before/while DVBViewer is running, it will be marked internally as not available and is not used.

If it is plugged in again, it will marked as available and is used if required.

To make this work, the device has to be in the hardware list of the DVBViewer.

ATTENTION: Avoid removing devices while in use for recording/liveTV. Some drivers can cause the system and the DVBViewer to crash (fireDTV (firewire) is quite unforgiving ;) ).

New: If a error occurs while trying to open a device, the device is ignored and the viewer will try to find another fitting device.
New: If a device can not be opened/started (because it is used by another software) the DVBViewer tries to find another usable device.
New: New Device and Tunertype: DVB-IPTV. For channel scanning please use the DVB-IPTV Transedit beta from the members area!

To add the device to the DVBViewer edit the usermode.ini in the dvbviewer program folder:

[CARD]

IPTV=1

start the DVBViewer and do a manual device scan in the hardware options. Remember to setup the device correctly!

Known issue: The IP is not displayed as readable IP in the channel editor and the scan window.

New: Support for Devolo dLAN TV Sat adapter
Change: KNC BDA Device. Integrated new KNCBDACTRL.dll. Should fix the problem 2KNC / 2CAMs. DO NOT MIX THIS DLL WITH AN OLDER DVBVIEWER VERSION!!

Fix: BDA device/TT CI: Fix for wrong MMI elements count calculation.
Fix: BDA/TT devices: fixed the initializing CAM only works in one out of two times problem.

If activated this options causes the DVBviewer to generate a PAT and PMT in TS recordings, which does reflect the present streams.
