Changelog
tvpvrd (4.5.1-1~getdeb1) precise; urgency=low
* New upstream version
-- User visible changes:
- None.
-- Bugs fixed:
- All warnings given by static code analyzing through Coverity was fixed.
Most warning where harmless but there were 6 potential resource leaks on
error conditions, 2 potential serious crashes, 1 endless-loop
and 6 potential off-by-one mem overwrite errors in corner cases.
All in all a very good and humbling exercise to run the code base through
coverity.
-- Internal changes:
- None.

tvpvrd (4.5.0-1~getdeb1) precise; urgency=low
* New upstream version
-- User visible changes:
- The station list is no longer sorted alphabetically. Instead
the order from the channel file is preserved since that might
have some logic for the user that makes more sense than plain
alphabetical sort.
- Added persistent history to the tvpvrd shell (tvpsh) so that
history is remembered between usages on a user-by-user level.
History is stored in "~/.tvpsh_history".
- For the Web-UI new themes can be added dynamically. Just add
new themes in the daemons config www directory and restart.
- The new Web-UI theme "grey" (which is a clean no-frills "flat"
theme) is now the default.
- Some minor UI tweaks/improvements in the Web-UI.
... deletion list disabled if there are no more recordings (as
well as submit button)
- New format for arguments in transcoding profiles.
The way to specify transcoding parameters have changed. Since
both ffmpeg and avconv (that is used for transcoding) is
constantly evolving its argument format the old way of
simplifying for end users by creating the command line
programatically in the daemon is too inflexible.
Instead the new way is to specify the complete command line in
the profile setting. This makes it easier to keep the daemon
and still upgrade to newer version of ffmpeg/avconv and just
updated the setting in the config file and not having to wait
for a new version of tvpvrd to catch up with the latest command
format.
This also caters better for advanced users that wants to
specify more complex encoding options in the transcoding
process.
- Added configuration for modern style Upstart init script for
system that uses initctl to start daemons (e.g. newer version
of Debian, Ubuntu, Linux Mint etc)
This is configured automatically depending on the system
- Re-enable the user setting for deciding if a user login when
using the Web-UI should be required or not. This was previously
ignored and a login was always required.
- If an XML DB files is specified on the command line the full
path is now used.
The previous behavior was to use the daemons working directory
- The default templates for the tvpvrd.conf file has been
slightly adjusted to enable the Web-UI by default.
- Support for "avconv" as transcoding program. This will make the
daemon work out-of-the-box with many debian based systems
(incl. Ubuntu/Linux Mint) since they ship with "avconv" as
default and not "ffmpeg".
- The setup process detects if either "ffmpeg" or "avconv" is
installed and adjusts the template for tvpvrd.conf accordingly.
Since "ffmpeg" and "avconv" have different command line
arguments there are also two profile directories. The old one
is used with ffmpeg and the new "profiles-avconv" is used with
avconv.
However, ffmpeg is still the recommended transcoder and in case
both are available the template will be initialized with ffmpeg
.
- libreadline-dev is now required dependency to configure and
build the daemon (This is a very common library used by many
utilities so it is not unreasonable)
- "configure" will now use "/usr" as default prefix and "/etc"
for default sysconfdir so no need to use
"configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc".
-- Bugs fixed:
- Prototype mismatch for xstrtolower()
- Web-UI did always require a login and did not adhere to the
config setting of require_web_password which could be set to
not requiring a login
- Only 8 command line argument was allowed when starting the
daemon
- Fixed compatibility with recent versions of ffmpeg for two pass
transcodings
- Fixed a potential memory leak in SMTP library in regards to
faulty attachments
- 64 bit adaption of backtrace stack print in case of SIGSEGV
(previous code only worked on a 32bit kernel)
-- Internal changes:
- Some internal cleanup of the autotools setup
- Some minor refactoring in how to handle a non-existent XML DB
file
- Added some bootstrap scripts to make it easier to create a
build environment from a repository download. This will now
setup a complete autotools environment from scratch. This is
only meant to be used by developers. End users just installing
the daemon from the tar-balls will not see these scripts.
The scripts are "bootstrap.sh" and its inverse "autoclean.sh"
- Added ubuntu/debian setup script to install all necessary
components to build the server. Will make it very easy for
developers to get a working build environment. Files
bootstrap.sh and bootstrap-deb.sh
- Added script to completely clean up a build environment to
pristine state after build and autotools setup. This will
completely remove all generated files by autotools or the
build process. Files autoclean.sh
