The 'bijou' 20100416 distribution of MythTV 0.22 is now available in atrpms-testing.
New changes include: * Three Hauppauge HD-PVR-related improvements. Two add signal monitoring to HD-PVR tuning and also slightly benefit FireWire users (#6719, #6611), while the third fixes an issue with h.264 LiveTV (#6602). Users should, in theory, be able to get rid of any post-change sleeps they put into their HD-PVR channel-change scripts. * #7836 and #8024, added in the previous bijou release, have been removed. They don't do anything essential and, among other things, possibly caused issues with commflaging. * A fix to seeking in Live TV (#7158). * A tuning-related typo fix (#7158). In addition, the changelog for bijou 20100323 omitted the following: * The BT.709 colorspace support, which previously used code from #7307, has been updated. Consult <URL:http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/VDPAU#VDPAU_filters> for documentation on how to use the 'vdpaucolorspace' and 'vdpaustudio' flags. While the former 'colorspace' and 'studio' flags still should work, they are deprecated. Prior changes include: * Adjustments to ThreadedFileWriter's buffers. Significantly improves recordings' integrity when destination disks are stressed, at the cost of increased RAM usage. (That said, on my frontend/backend I've recorded four HD streams at once without swapping.) My work. * A complete backport of the greatly improved 0.23 audio upmixer code. * Related to the above, prevent bogus AC3 channel-code flags from disabling AC3 audio (#8030). * Fix VDPAU video not resuming after xscreensaver (#7641). * Fix for judder seen in various European 720p HD channels (#7481). * Fix for MythVideo's bookmark dialog box killing keyboard input by changing focus window (#7741). * Fix for Jumppoints not working in MythVideo or when OSD is present (#7322, #7939). * Automatically scale number of user jobs based on system load (#2782). * Permit bringing up both Watch Recordings menus with just MENU, and add Watched toggle to Playlist options (my variant on #6814). * Chapter support in MKV videos (#7892, r23231, r23299). * Improved detection of audio tracks when transcoding (my variant on #1841). * Much faster seeking in videos, especially in MythVideo without seektables (#7521, #7935). * BT.709 and studio-level colors for VDPAU playback (#7307). * Blu-ray subtitle support (#6748). * Reduce verbosity of log messages (#6730, #7982). * Improvements to BlackCurves OSD theme (#7911, #7995). * Fix to %YEARSTARS% when either year or stars is missing (my version of #7992). * Various ATSC closed-caption fixes (#7738, #7739, #7766, #7775, #7776). * Miscellaneous, mostly video-related fixes (#7252, #7397, #7409, #7454, #7688, #7759, #7827). -- Yeechang Lee <[email protected]> | San Francisco CA US _______________________________________________ atrpms-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.atrpms.net/mailman/listinfo/atrpms-users
