 Thanks, will be removed in the next version.

If we are polishing stuff like this for 2.0, there are two small bugs
in the permissions in the .tar:

1) vdr-1.7.37/po/sr_SR.po is -rw--- rather than -rw-r--r--

2) all the files have a named owner/group kls/users - ideally the tar
should be created with `tar -c --owner=root --group=root
--numeric-owner` to clear these and set the owner group as 0/0.
Currently if you unpack the tar as root, you end up with files owned
by an unknown user with userid 500.

Cheers,
Dom

Thanks. Both fixed for the next version.

 If all goes well, there should be no more functional or API changes
 before the final version 2.0.0. There will just be a few more fixes.
 
 
 The changes since version 1.7.36:
 
 - Now also using FindHeader() in cMpeg2Fixer::AdjTref() (pointed out by Sören 
 Moch).
 - Added missing template for DVBDIR to Make.config.template (reported by 
 Derek Kelly).
 - The LCARS menu now also works if the OSD has only 1bpp (two colors).
 - Fixed possible garbage in the remaining time of the LCARS replay display in 
 case the
   hours change from two to one digit.
 - Fixed upscaling bitmaps. The last row and column of the scaled bitmap was 
 not filled,
   which resulted in empty lines between scaled subtitles.
 - Fixed a leftover line in case a two line subtitle was followed by a one line
   subtitle on the dvbhddevice in high level OSD mode.
 - Returning 0 from cDvbSdFfDevice::NumProvidedSystems() if option 
 --outputonly is given.
 - The index file is now closed after initially reading it if it is older than 
 3600 seconds.
 - Improved responsiveness during replay when close to the recording's end.
 - Fixed a leftover progress display in the LCARS main menu when replay of a 
 recording
   ends while the menu is open, and the live channel has no EPG information.
 - Fixed possible audio chatter when a recording is replayed to its very end.
 - Added dependency on 'i18n' to 'install-i18n' in the VDR Makefile (thanks to 
 Tobias
   Grimm).
 - Changed several calls to Skins.Message() in vdr.c to Skins.QueueMessage() 
 in order to
   avoid a black screen while such a message is displayed in case the channel 
 will be
   switched (reported by Uwe Scheffler).
 - Updated the Slovakian language texts (thanks to Milan Hrala).
 - Improved LIRC timing for repeat function.
 - When pausing live video, the current audio and subtitle tracks are now 
 retained.
 - Added some notes about plugin Makefiles to PLUGINS.html.
 - Avoiding an extra key press event if the repeat function kicks in when 
 controlling
   VDR via the PC keyboard.
 - The new options Setup/Miscellaneous/Remote control repeat delay and
   Setup/Miscellaneous/Remote control repeat delta can be used to adjust the
   behavior of the remote control in case a key is held pressed down for a 
 while, so
   that the repeat function kicks in (see MANUAL).
   The builtin LIRC and KBD remote controls already use these parameters. It is
   recommended that plugins that implement an interface to any kind of remote 
 controls
   also use the parameters Setup.RcRepeatDelay and Setup.RcRepeatDelta for the 
 desired
   purpose, and remove any setup options they might have that serve the same 
 purpose.
 - cTimer no longer does any special VFAT handling to shorten directory 
 names to 40
   characters. When a string is used as a directory name for a recording, the 
 maximum
   length of the directory path, as well as the individual directory names, is 
 now
   limited to the values specified by the new command line option --dirnames 
 (see
   man vdr(1) for details). For backwards compatibility the option --vfat is 
 still
   available and has the same effect as --dirnames=250,40,1.
 - The macro MaxFileName is now obsolete and may be removed in future 
 versions. Use
   NAME_MAX directly instead.
 - There is no more fixed limit to the maximum number of cPixmap objects an 
 OSD can
   create. However, a particular device may still be unable to create an 
 arbitrary
   number of pixmaps, due to limited resources. So it's always a good idea to 
 use
   as few pixmaps as possible.
 - Fixed formatting and removed some superfluous break statements in vdr.c's 
 command
   line option switch.
 
 Have fun!
