vdr-remote-app / News: Recent posts

User FeXXX of vdr-portal.de kindly provided a Mac OSX 10.5 compatible executable. You can download the binary here: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/vdr-remote-app/vdr_remote.0.4.0.leopard.zip

Softpedia (www.softpedia.com) has awarded vdr_remote 0.4 the "Softpedia 100% clean" award, certifying that it contains no viruses, no spyware and no adware.
You can read the details on http://mac.softpedia.com/progClean/vdr-remote-Clean-22729.html.

Apparently the automatic generation of vdr_remote-0.4 source archive didn`t include some vital files. If you downloaded the broken vdr_remote-0.4 archive, configure will fail because it can´t find install.sh.
This is fixed in the updated source archive vdr_remote-0.4-src.

New:
-----
- display vdr disk status with adjustable timeout
- added user definable text to User Button Tooltips
- cvs access to Source Code
- rpms for SuSE 10.1, please test these carefully and thoroughly, they´re in alpha state

Fixed:
--------
- show user buttons wasn't stored in the preferences
- Minimize to tray on Windows

Updated:
---------
- Documentation
- Buttons

You can get the latest source code revision through cvs. Every now and then a rather stable (means probably end-user stable) branch will be made, currently the latest branch is vdr_remote-0_3_1.

Included in the cvs sources you'll find project files for KDevelop, Xcode and Dev-C++ as well as a configure script.

Please see the cvs-branches Tracker for the latest cvs branch.

New features:
- User buttons
- Stay on top of other windows
- Minimize to tray (somewhat limited in Windows Binary)

Changes in Version 0.2:
- Added Butttons for Recordings, Timers, Setup, Channels, Audio, Info, Schedule and Commands
- Changed Connection Method so it doesn´t keep a permanent connection anymore

Version 0.1 is available now. Currently this version is not intended for end users. It lacks documentation and still has some limitations.
Supported and (somewhat) tested systems:
SUsE Linux 10.1 with wxWidgets 2.6.2 and 2.7.0, Mac OSX 10.4 with wxWidgets 2.5.3.
