   1 libcec (1.4-1) unstable; urgency=low
   2
   3    * changed/added:
   4      * added the vendor id for Sony
   5      * always refresh the power state of a device when it hasn't been updated
   6        for 30 seconds
   7      * do silent builds by default
   8    * interface changes:
   9      * added optional callback methods to libCEC. enable them by calling
  10        EnableCallbacks(ICECCallbacks *callbacks) /
  11        cec_enable_callbacks(ICECCallbacks *callbacks). after this method is
  12        called, the GetNext...() methods will not return any data
  13      * added the same callbacks to LibCecSharp. implement CecCallbackMethods
  14        and override the methods in there
  15    * fixed:
  16      * use the given timeout when trying to open a connection to the CEC
  17        adapter
  18      * resolved difference between method name in LibCECC.cpp and cecc.h.
  19        credits: Doug Johnson
  20      * don't transmit physical addresses while holding a lock in CCECProcessor
  21      * don't hold a lock when sending an active source message.
  22      * unload libCEC when the lib version is invalid
  23      * "unused" warnings suppressed

  31        older libudev versions (e.g. on Hardy). closes #2. credits @fbuenemann
  32      * added pkg-config to the dependencies list. issue #15
  33      * updated README. closes #14
  34      * added a script that tests some basic functions of the CEC adapter:
  35        /support/cec-test-device.sh
  36    * fixed:
  37      * don't make libCEC the active source when changing the physical address.
  38        don't send active source messages on startup, when not the active source
  39        fixes unwanted device power ups
  40      * replace the command handler directly after receiving a changed vendor
  41        id. change the primary type from recording device to playback device
  42        for panasonic TVs
  43      * don't send a deck status update when sending an active source message
  44        for panasonic TVs
  45      * only switch handlers once when using the generic handler
  46      * don't switch handlers when not needed
  47      * hold a lock in CCECProcessor::SetHDMIPort()
  48      * don't send deck status updates when sending an active source message by
  49        default

  54
  55    * changed/added:
  56      * copy libcec.dll to the XBMC installation dir when XBMC is found
  57      * disable background polling. let the client request this info when needed
  58      * update the power status of a device when it's set to
  59        CEC_POWER_STATUS_IN_TRANSITION_STANDBY_TO_ON
  60      * wait for the correct response when requesting something, not just any
  61        response
  62      * don't keep trying the same command/request after receiving a feature
  63        abort message
  64    * interface changes:
  65      * change the previously unused boolean parameter in volume control methods
  66        to bSendRelease, and only send a key release when it's true. default to
  67        true
  68    * fixed:
  69      * don't send the power up/down keypress to listeners when in the initial
  70        device state (powered off). fixes unexpected shutdown in XBMC when
  71        connecting to the CEC adapter.
  72      * send a 'menu state activated' command when starting up. bugzid: 113
  73      * don't wait for a response when not needed
  74      * don't hold a lock while waiting for a response. fixes failed libCEC
  75        inits and slow responses
  76      * don't replace a command handler when it's being used. fixes possible
  77        crash on startup
  78      * don't try to do anything before the processor thread has started
  79      * don't transmit active source messages when the physical address is
  80        still 0xFFFF
  81      * don't init the default handler before the physical address is known

  85 libcec (1.3-1) unstable; urgency=low
  86
  87   * changed/added:
  88     * make libudev optional. if libudev is not available on linux, adapter
  89       autodetection will also not be available. fixes compilation on Hardy/ATV1
  90     * added a C++ CLR wrapper for libCEC, so libCEC can be used by any .NET
  91       language
  92     * added vendor support for LG
  93     * added vendor support for Philips
  94     * added vendor support for Yamaha
  95     * added vendor support for Onkyo
  96     * added 'scan' command to cec-client, that displays info about devices on
  97       the bus. made all ToString() methods available on the interface.
  98     * added '-s' or '--single-command' to cec-client. starting cec-client with
  99       this parameter executes a single command in cec-client and does not power
 100       on devices on startup and power them off on exit. this way, you can use
 101       cec-client in a shell script. since there's some handshaking involved at
 102       startup, this is not very fast. to execute a command and only display the
 103       result and any error/warning, execute it with
 104       RESULT=`echo command | cec-client -s -d 3` (on linux/osx, win32 batch
 105       files are a bit different)
 106     * added HDMI port ('-p' or '--port') and base device ('-b' or '--base') to
 107       cec-client's parameters
 108     * handle image view on and text view on
 109     * handle routing information and report physical address opcodes
 110     * handle audio status updates
 111     * send ping and bootloader commands via the output queue
 112     * scan the CEC bus for devices when starting libcec
 113     * pass all commands that are directed at libcec to listeners
 114   * interface changes:
 115     * added GetActiveSource()/cec_get_active_source()
 116     * added IsActiveSource()/cec_is_active_source()
 117     * added GetDevicePhysicalAddress()/cec_get_device_physical_address()
 118     * added GetDeviceOSDName()/cec_get_osd_name()
 119     * added SendKeypress()/cec_send_keypress() and SendKeyRelease()/
 120       cec_send_key_release()
 121     * added VolumeUp()/cec_volume_up(), VolumeDown()/cec_volume_down(),
 122       MuteAudio()/cec_mute_audio()
 123     * added GetActiveDevices()/cec_get_active_devices(), IsActiveDevice()/
 124       cec_is_active_device(), IsActiveDeviceType()/cec_is_active_device_type().
 125     * added SetHDMIPort()/cec_set_hdmi_port(). devices are now detected on load
 126       and when a device with the same physical address is detected, libcec will
 127       use the selected hdmi port on that device. should fix source selection on
 128       other devices, like an amplifier
 129     * added a hook in libcec for physical address autodetection
 130   * fixed:
 131     * don't request the physical address from the tv (it's always 0x0000)
 132     * set the proper ackmask before doing anything else
 133     * don't unlock the transmit mutex in CCECProcessor while waiting for an
 134       answer
 135     * fix device polling
 136     * refactor CEC read/write. keep a single lock for all writes, not one per
 137       device
 138     * ignore other data while waiting for a response
 139     * retry failed tranmissions
 140     * don't delete a message before it's been sent when starting the bootloader
 141     * or when sending a ping
 142     * fixed possible segfault when switching the command handler after a vendor
 143     * id changed
 144     * handle audio opcodes correctly
 145     * inactive source should be directly addressed at the TV
 146     * don't report a changed physical address when it hasn't changed
 147     * routing information sets the stream path, not the physical address
 148     * don't scan the whole bus in CCECProcessor::IsActiveDeviceType()
 149     * don't request the vendor id from devices that are handled by libcec
 150     * mark device status as present when a command was received from a device
 151     * always send a power on command in CCECBusDevice::PowerOn()
 152     * don't request updates statusses unless needed
 153     * report physical address sends 3 parameters, not 2. check whether the
 154       device type is correct
 155     * devices can send vendor commands from other vendors, so don't assume the
 156       device is of a certain vendor when it sends commands with a vendor id
 157     * thread safety fixes. bugzid: 19
 158     * clear any previous input when opening a connection to the adapter.
 159       bugzid: 54
 160     * use the correct source address in CSLCommandHandler::HandleVendorCommand()
 161     * uncorrected CEC_OPCODE_DEVICE_VENDOR_ID. closes #5
 162     * renamed enum methods. fixes potential macro collision with isset().
 163       thanks davilla
 164     * don't change the active device when receiving stream path changed
 165       messages. fixes wrong source selection when powering after the TV.

 191 libcec (1.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
 192
 193   * interface changes:
 194     * added logical address autodetection and let libcec handle multiple types
 195       simultaniously. for logical address autodetection, you have to use
 196       CECInit()/cec_init_typed() instead of CECCreate()/cec_init()
 197     * added SetActiveSource()/cec_set_active_source() to the interface.
 198       deprecated SetActiveView()/cec_set_active_view()

 211       detected
 212     * send the correct device type in TransmitPhysicalAddress()
 213     * send a reply from the correct device when the stream path is requested
 214     * opcode 0x80 means the stream path changed, not the physical address
 215     * don't poll for a vendor ID in monitoring mode
 216     * fixed parameter parsing in SetVendorId()
 217     * buffer up commands that are received while waiting for an ack. only send
 218       'active source' message for the actual active source
 219     * win32: prepend the com port path with '\\.\', so com ports > 9 can be
 220       accessed. thanks smolesen
 221     * audio systems cannot be an active source, so don't transmit active
 222       source message from this device
 223     * only send 'active source' when powered on
 224     * only set the osd name for the primary device. use default values for
 225       others
 226     * increase physical address with 0x100 per device

 230     * mark the active source as active and other devices as inactive
 231     * set the power status to 'on' when receiving CEC_USER_CONTROL_CODE_POWER
 232     * transmit the menu state as (active) when the stream path is set
 233   * changed:
 234     * changed copyright of boblight files with permission of the original
 235       author
 236     * partial handling of audio related opcodes
 237     * more consistent log messages
 238     * set a device type and name for each CCECBusDevice

 240     * renamed all Broadcast...() and Report...() methods to Transmit...()
 241     * renamed SetOSDString() to TransmitOSDString()
 242     * changed debug level of 'did not receive ack' from error to debug
 243     * only set the power status to 'on' for the primary device
 244     * moved method decriptions from cecc.h to cec.h
 245     * only send a power on command when a device isn't on already and set
 246       the power state to CEC_POWER_STATUS_IN_TRANSITION_STANDBY_TO_ON while
 247       powering on
 248     * handle CEC_OPCODE_STANDBY
 249     * handle CEC_OPCODE_ACTIVE_SOURCE
 250     * always start in standby mode and let the tv (or other device) send the
 251       power on command
 252     * renamed the last few enums

 337     before returning
 338   * fixed: set initiator and destination first in cec_command::push_back().
 339     fixes 'tx' command in cec-client
 340   * fixed: keep trying to connect while iTimeout isn't reached (default 10

 446   * Fixed setting the ackmask. deprecated SetAckMask()/cec_set_ack_mask(). use
 447     SetLogicalAddress()/cec_set_logical_address() instead. add 'la' command to
 448     the testclient to set the logical address of the cec adapter
 449   * Added optional logical and physical address parameters to
 450     LoadLibCec()/cec_init() on the interface. fixed wrongly placed namespace
