MuMuDvb Changelog

What's new in MuMuDvb 1.6

Oct 6, 2009
  • New features / improvements:
  • Support for HTTP Unicast
  • Implementation of the RTP headers.
  • The limit in the size of the PAT PID for PAT rewriting has been removed
  • PAT rewrite is less CPU consuming
  • ATSC autoconfiguration fully fonctionnal
  • Autoconfiguration: MuMuDVB can update the PIDs while running if they change
  • Tuning: Support for circular polarization, more LNBs and possibility to fix LNB voltage to 0V
  • Tuning: We can set the coderate (FEC) for satellite and cable with the option coderate
  • Documentation rewrite. The doc is now in asciidoc format + new configuration examples
  • Autoconfiguration: We wait for all the channels in the PAT to be configured before continuing
  • Autoconfiguration: New option autoconf_scrambled which permit to autoconfigure scrambbled channels even without cam_support
  • CAM support: We look on the packets to check if the descrambling was successful
  • Option dont_send_scrambled to avoid sending scrambled packets (thus not making SAP announces for scrambled channels)
  • Option to show the traffic for each channel
  • Reduce CPU usage : experimental feature : DVB buffering
  • CAM : MuMuDVB can reset the CAM module if it initialize badly
  • SAP : new option sap_uri.
  • VLC bug : add an option to avoid sending the SDT, this is a workaround for VLC
  • Bugs corrected:
  • Cam support : wait a bit more between polling events (solve problems with T-Rex Supermodule v4.6)
  • Cam : Change the list managment. This solves the problem of only one channel descrambled with aston pro
  • We check if the PMT_QUERY sending (asking a channel to be descrambled) to the CAM was sucessful.
  • Autoconfiguration, pat rewrite, CAM : we check the transport_stream id. This solve problems with shared PMT betwen channels.

New in MuMuDvb 1.5.4 (Mar 30, 2009)

  • New features / improvements:
  • New stack for cam support, based on libdvben50221 from dvb_apps
  • Option dont_tune to avoid mumudvb to try to tune the card (can be used to test dvb-s2)
  • Non ascii channels names are now well handled by autoconf
  • Autoconfiguration : Better pid selection (new descriptor types added), can correct issues with some nondetected audio/video pids
  • Autoconfiguration ; Detection of the PCR PID, this solves problem with vlc and the absence of sound on certain channels
  • A configuration file is generated after autoconfiguration
  • Preliminary support for ATSC cards, new option atsc_modulation
  • Bugs corrected:
  • We don't set the filters multiple times
  • Better reading of the config file
  • Segmentation faults with some particular configuration files
  • Bug in intialisation scripts
  • Better handling of partial packets. Mumudvb doesn't exit anymore.

New in MuMuDvb 1.5.3 (Dec 14, 2008)

  • New features :
  • Option multicast_ttl to override default ttl
  • Option autoconf_ip_header, to change the first part of ip adresses used by autoconfiguration
  • Option sap_default_group
  • Init scripts, cf scripts/ directory
  • Smaller memory footprint
  • Bugs corrected :
  • Better conformances to RFC for sap announces (this correct issues with VLC 0.8.6f)
  • Better memory freeing
  • CRC32 calculation was wrong on 64bits platforms

New in MuMuDvb 1.5.2 (Dec 14, 2008)

  • New features :
  • Generation of sap announces (beta)
  • Bugs corrected :
  • Segfault when the directory /var/run/mumudvb doesn't exist
  • Gcc 4.2 issues when using pat rewriting or autoconfiguration
  • Small corrections

New in MuMuDvb 1.5.0 (Sep 16, 2008)

  • Support for scrambled channels via a CAM
  • Support for autoconfiguration : mumudvb is now able to parse the ts stream to find information about the channels and stream them.
