71 * cec-client: show the firmware build date if available in cec-client -l
72 * cec-client: don't activate the source when starting
73 * cec-client: group up the output of the 'scan' command, and add the
74 currently active source to the output
75 * log the libCEC version in the 'connected to the CEC adapter' log entry,
76 and add the firmware build date to the line if it's available, so all
77 relevant version info is available in 1 log line.
78 * async writes for CUSBCECAdapterCommunication. less locks and polls, more
80 * added 'make docs' target, that updates the doxygen documentation
83 * added operator == and != for libcec_configuration
84 * added GetResponseOpcode(cec_opcode opcode) to cec_command
85 * added the firmware build date to libcec_configuration, so it can be
86 displayed by the client too.
87 * added static CLibCEC::Alert() method and CEC_ALERT_CONNECTION_LOST value
88 * added a callback to handle menu state changes. if the callback method
89 returns 1, then the change is processed by the CCECBusDevice too. if 0,
90 then the CCECBusDevice will always have menu state 'activated', so
91 keypresses are routed. bugzid: 724

93 language for devices controlled by libcec. bugzid: 69

99 * don't try to match a device with PA 0xFFFF.
100 * don't change the power status of a device when changing the stream path
101 * don't set the power status to 'powered off' when marking the source
102 managed by libcec as inactive, or the tv will might send a power control
103 keycode when making it active again, potentially shutting down the system
104 * potential segfault in CCECProcessor::GetDeviceByPhysicalAddress()
105 * stream path changes when changed to the TV source (PA 0)
106 * clear the unsupported features list in CCECBusDevice::ResetDeviceStatus()
107 * never mark vendor commands as unsupported (only some may be unsupported),
108 as well as some others that should never be marked unsupported
109 * don't retry in CCECCommandHandler if the command has been marked as
111 * don't request the PA of devices when handling an incoming CEC command, or
112 it'll block things while waiting for a response. if that response never
113 comes, or comes late, then other incoming commands will be timed out
114 before they are handled
115 * optimisation - strip unneeded virtual keywords from top level
117 * use the vlcommandhandler for the primary device that is handled by libCEC
118 when a panasonic tv is detected, so delayed activate source commands are
119 using the correct handler. bugzid: 723
120 * set the power status of device controlled by libCEC to
122 instead of IN_TRANSITION_STANDBY_TO_ON. reset the device status of a
123 device if it was detected as removed. bugzid: 755
124 * potentially uninitialised values in cec_command
125 * delay the 'active source' command for panasonic, until the vendor command
126 that reports that the TV is powered on has been received. bugzid: 723
127 * only respond to Give Physical Address with Report Physical Address.
129 This fixes several reports of the TV improperly switching to the libcec
130 device after it has previously switched to another source. Fix confirmed
131 with Panasonic and also reported to be an issue with Samsung and

168 language is undefined in libcec (currently the default), the response

173 server version to 1.6.0. fixed 'unknown server version' message on
175 * added a new setting to control whether to put the TV in standby when the
176 player is put in standby. added some missing bits (version numbers,
177 config) to LibCecSharp. bugzid: 558
178 * added an alert callback. bugzid: 462
179 * added bShutdownOnStandby to libcec_configuration. bugzid: 660. This
180 setting tells the client to shutdown when the TV switches off and is
181 complimentary to bPowerOffOnStandby, which tells the PC to suspend.
182 They are kept separate to maintain backwards compatability.
185 * gcc 4.7 compilation
186 * poll doesn't have an opcode. bugzid: 591

189 * mark the correct device as active source after a stream path change.
190 if the new address is not found, but the old address is, then mark the
191 old address as inactive. fixes TV switching back to the old active source
192 when it scans for devices. bugzid: 592

195 * fixed possible crash when in CLibCEC::IsLibCECActiveSource() when libCEC
196 doesn't know which device is the active source. bugzid: 479
197 * correct handling CEC_USER_CONTROL_CODE_POWER. This ensures that the power
198 code always operates as a toggle, depending on the current state, and
199 that SetCurrentButton is always called for a valid user control code.
201 * frequency wasn't checked in GetTimeMs(), leading to incorrect wait times
202 on some windows systems
203 * refactored USB adapter communication. less locks, shorter locks, added
204 documentation, lots of clean ups and no more incoming messages that are
206 * the destructor of CSerialSocket didn't call Close()
207 * added guards in CSerialPort
208 * reset m_socket to INVALID_SERIAL_SOCKET_VALUE after closing the
210 * always wait for thread exit in CThread's desctructor
211 * crash on exit after GetDeviceInformation()
212 * check whether the destination is valid before setting anything in
213 m_bWaitingForAck. fixes heap corruption and crash on exit. bugzid: 479
214 * bUseTVMenuLanguage from libcec_configuration wasn't copied in
215 SetConfiguration(), so this setting was reset to the default value
216 (enabled) every time. bugzid: 617
217 * request the vendor id of a device if needed when the device status is
218 changed into 'present'. bugzid: 361

225 * moved the static variables in os-threads from the header to a separate
226 cpp file, or it could lead to problems when included multiple times
227 * don't send an active source command when the physical address couldn't be
228 set, or it might confuse other CEC devices
229 * serial socket timeouts. bugzid: 654

236 that actually changed, only instruct the device to persist the settings
237 in eeprom when something changed, and don't persist settings on exit.
