It will be some time, as I will need to figure which bugfixes are already there, and whether custom added features are already included, or will apply painlessly... Plus, Real Life has the habit of rearing its ugly head too often and taking my time from better things. For starters, so I don't waste my time, I've hacked the code from 2005 to... * permit extending the recording by SIGHUP (in case the supplied value is incorrect, the program overruns or starts late, or something) * allow the user to specify that the program terminates immediately in case of problems such as inability to open the specified output file * for writing to a specified file, directs normal messages to stdout and errors to stderr -- allows me to call the program >/dev/null from a script from `cron' and only receive mail in case of errors that I could correct * what seem to be a few compiler quietings * RTP MPA audio hacks that may not work * probably checks that nothing else has the device open to prevent interfering with anything else * other fixes that certainly aren't needed now (dev/ost) In case any of the above are undesired by anyone save myself, I won't bother creating those particular diffs > BTW, for years I asked to insert the correct "reply-to" header in this > *fuckingly broken* mailing list (to send replies to the list rather than > to the poster), but not a single time I received an answer by His > Majesty the ML administrator. That's the wrong header. See my headers. Reply-To: should be a user-supplied header, as I've often used when sending mail from one account but receiving it elsewhere. A better header to use would be Mail-Followup-To: or Mail-Reply-To: , so that, should I start using a dyndns domain again, I can still receive personal replies. Anyway, I default to replying to all recipients, and trim the list if I think personal mail would be better, or the individual recipient(s) if it's not directed at them, the Reply-To: if I don't want to use that redirection... But my mailer is clear about this, and handles the different reply-type headers properly, yet allowing me flexibility to take things off-list as appropriate bazza bouwzma _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
