Version 1.2.3.2

Fixes:

[Player] Fixed a bug that rarely flushes the playback buffer during playback, thus dropping already loaded data. Playback may then be jerky.
[Player] Player does no longer search floppy drives when resolving volume names.
[Player] Algorithm for detecting start and end time of a MPEG or PVA clip file has been updated. Sometimes files were not accepted because a valid start or end time was not detected.

Version 1.2.3.1

Changes:

[Startup] Added "NoSortChannelList" registry entry. This DWORD value is located in "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Thomas Gatterweh\DVB-s VCR\Settings". If set non-zero, channel lists are no longer sorted alphabetically, but listed as found in the TPR-file. Default value is zero (sorted).

Fixes:

[Recorder] Fixed error message if registry specifies a default cliplist file, but the file does not exist. The file is now created silently. Previously the program did stop and wait for a user intervention. Please note that if the file could not be created, e.g. because the specified drive or directory does not exist, the program will still output the error message and wait.
[Player] Fixed the playback startup problems that occured sometimes, mostly when running under Windows 2000.
[EPG Scan] Fixed the abnormal program termination if DAO 3.6 could not be initialized. An error message is now output and the program will continue.

Version 1.2.2.1

Changes:

[Player] Added slow motion playback
[Commandline] Added "/VIEWER" option to start program with viewer opened
[OSD] Changed the mode display timing in player mode to be more firmware friendly
[OSD] Added OSD font size selection (A word of caution: On-screen display of current/next event information does not validate the required window size. If the window is too large, it may crash the DVB-s card's internal firmware. You should active EPG display only with font size set to 'small'!)

Fixes:

[Player] Fixed a bug that may cause playback to fail on OS other than Windows 9x
[Recorder] Fixed a bug that caused the program to fail when the root directory of a drive was specified as path for recording or conversion
[Startup] Fixed the error message at startup when no TPR-file was previously selected
