Incompatible changes in 3.0 ===========================
* The config file format has changed. There are three new sec-
tions:
[global], [defaults] and [launch]. Global settings go to the
[global]
section, the default settings for the channels to [defaults].
Tools
which should be started from xawtv go to the [launch] section
now.
Check the xawtv man page for more details.
* The command line options all have one dash only ('-debug').
Thats X11
style (like '-geometry' and '-font'), I will not switch to GNU
style
options. xawtv uses the Xt options parser, this has the nice
side
effect that there are X11 ressources now for all options, i.e.
you
can turn them on permantly by adding entries to your .Xde-
faults file.
[ FIXME: add them to the xawtv manpage ]
* The frequency tables are all renamed. I've removed the TV
norm from
the name to avoid confusion. They are now named after re-
gions,
optionally with "-bcast" or "-cable" appended to indicate if
the table
is for cable TV or for broadcast.
* set-tv is gone, there is the more powerfull tool v4lctl in-
stead.
Check the v4lctl man page for details.
* I've unbundled kradio and moved it (with a improved configure
script)
into another tarball. It caused compile trouble often becauce
it
requires KDE devel packages and a C++ compiler. People often
hav'nt
found the '--disable-kradio' switch which fixes these problems
:-(
The ncurses-based radio tool is still included.
