VCR's don't remember anything related to position, it's the tape itself that
moves (from one reel to the other), not the head in the VCR.  ;)

 This has nothing to do with the actual shutdown stuff.
 VDR just needs to store this information in its setup.conf.

Well, in a sense it has something to do with shutdown, because if VDR were
never restarted, storing the information in setup.conf would be useless.
I hope that you wrote this down on your secret TODO list. :-)

2007-02-26 Thread Udo Richter

Hi list,

Now that VDR 1.5.1 was published, I've also published the final 1.0 
version of the shutdown rewrite. The changes since 0.4 are mainly by Klaus.


http://www.udo-richter.de/vdr/patches.html#shutdown
http://www.udo-richter.de/vdr/patches.en.html#shutdown

The patch is identical to the changes of VDR 1.5.1, except that no 
functions were dropped, for compatibility. Also, the detection define is 
present, and should be used like this:


#if VDRVERSNUM = 10501 || (defined(PATCH_SHUTDOWN_REWRITE)  
PATCH_SHUTDOWN_REWRITE = 100)

...
#else
...
#endif


Changes:
- Identifiers changed:
  cShutdown - cShutdownHandler
  Shutdown - ShutdownHandler

- cRemote::LastActivity() now returns an absolute time, not a relative!

- Dropped cThread::EmergencyExit (still present in this patch for
  compatibility)

- Rearranged signal handling, report all signals instantly to syslog

- ISREALKEY macro to check whether a key is user-generated

- Some new timeout constants in vdr.c

- Updated man page regarding SIGHUP

- Coding style rewrite by Klaus, slight changes in documentation,
  comments and i18n strings

Cheers,

Udo
