Hard to commit changes when you don't have the password. He never abandoned it, regardless of the long time since last changes. > It isn't a problem to ask the owner form vdr-developer.org > to reset the password or/and add a new one If the own of vdr-developer.org is willing to do that, sure, but if he does then he should only add a login for an appropriate maintainer not just anybody who wants to merge their own patches.

Since you applied your patches to their fork, I guess you should ask them to merge your patches there. Honestly, yaepg[hd] would be better off re-written from the ground up but I doubt anyone have the motivation to do it. _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
