Hi All,

IIRC the 0.9.x series were meant as development releases leading up to a new stable 1.0.0 release. Lately there have been no maintenance 0.8.x releases and a lot of interesting development going on in the 0.9.x, while at the same time there have been no issues reported against 0.9.x (iow it seems stable).

So how about taking current master and releasing that as a 1.0.0 release ?

Regards,

Hans

Fine by me!

Note that the libv4l2rds code is now finalized, so that can be released as well.

I've got a fix for a really bad performance bug, so if you can hold off on doing a release a couple of hours until I can get in front of my Linux box and submit a patch, I would appreciate it.

Thanks,

Devin

Fine for me.

There are 5 patches floating at patchwork to improve the DVB-S support with different types of DiSEqC, but applying them would break library support for tvd. So, they won't be applied as-is, and Guy needs to take some other approach. As he is also planning to add support there for rotors, it looks ok to postpone such changes to a latter version.

So, feel free to bump it to version 1.0.

Regards,
Mauro

Can we wait a little bit more like a week max ?
I'd like to see the polarization stuff fixed because otherwise you can't use sat at all with libdvbv5.

I'll work on the new patches this weekend. I'll hopefully have something today.
I'll see what I can do wrt DiSEqC stuff but that can definitely wait a latter release.

Sure, I was just trying to see what people think about doing a 1.0.0 release. I see no reason to rush it.

I'm fine with preparing a 1.0.0 release.

But I'm under the impression that the libdvbv5 interface is not polished enough to build a shared library from it. So I'd like to change the autoconf default to false and skip installing the static and shared library.

Any objections?

Thanks,
Gregor

I saw your patches were merged to v4l-utils. Is there anything else you'd like to have included in a v4l-utils 1.0.0 release?

Nope, that's all I wanted to have for this release.

Next thing will be to work on better diseqc support but it can wait for another release.

Hi Gregor,

Let me know when you've branched 1.0.0. I want to merge Bård's work for qv4l2 (openGL support, upcoming audio support and other improvements), but I can't do that until after you made the 1.0.0 branch.

Thanks!
