DVB Frontend Status Monitor is a VDR plugin that displays some signal
information parameters of the current tuned channel on OSD. You can zap
through all your channels and the plugin should be monitoring always the
right frontend. The transponder and stream information are also available
in advanced display modes.

The 'control' plugin brings the ability to VDR to control
the whole OSD over a telnet client.
To reach this, 'control' listens on a network socket
(default is port 2002). If a client wants to connect, VDR
checks if that client is allowed to connect to VDR (see in
the documentation of VDR about the svdrphosts.conf file for
more info). If the connection is etablished, 'control'
sends the curent OSD state to the client. Also all key
strokes at the client side are redirected to VDR.

for C++. To create webapplications Tntnet has a template-language called
ecpp similar to php, jsp or mason, where you can embed c++-code inside a
html-page to generate active content. The ecpp-files are precompiled to
c++-classes called components and compiled and linked into a shared
library. This process is done at compiletime.

to sensibly list here, but http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.6/changes.html has a
nice overview.
Some highlights include
- a new quad-precision library that's used by the Fortran frontend
(on x86 and amd64);
- new -Wunused-but-set-variable and -Wunused-but-set-parameter warnings
for C family languages (enabled by -Wall and -Wall -Wextra, too);
- new -Wdouble-promotion warning for implicit promotions to double;
- a new general optimization level -Ofast combines -O3 with options that
can affect standards compliance but result in better optimized code;
- link-time optimizations (LTO) now scaling to large input sizes, using
better heuristics, and optimizing more aggressively;
- new command-line options -fstack-usage and -fstrict-volatile-bitfields
(for precisely defining and accessing memory-mapped peripheral registers);
- function attribute leaf that allows for more aggressive optimizations;
- new data type __int128 for targets having wide enough machine-mode support;
- support for selectively enabling and disabling warnings via
#pragma GCC diagnostic has been added. For instance:
#pragma GCC diagnostic error "-Wuninitialized"
foo(a); /* error is given for this one */
#pragma GCC diagnostic push
#pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wuninitialized"
foo(b); /* no diagnostic for this one */
#pragma GCC diagnostic pop
foo(c); /* error is given for this one */
#pragma GCC diagnostic pop
foo(d); /* depends on command line options */
- new command-line option-fmax-errors=N;
- experimental support for some features from the upcoming ISO C1X;
- similarly for ISO C++0x including constexpr, nullptr, noexcept,
unrestricted unions, range-based for loops, opaque enums, implicitly
deleted functions, and implicit move constructors;
- default warning when integers are cast to larger pointer types,
to disable via -Wno-int-to-pointer-cast;
- signficiantly better diagnostics for C++ code;
- loads and loads and loads of improvements to the Fortran frontend;
- a new Go frontend and run-time library;
- massive work on Objective-C and Objective-C++; notably extensive
support for Objective-C 2.0 (not enabled by this port yet);
- support for Intel Core 2 processors (-march=core2, -mtune=core2),
Intel Core i3/i5/i7 processors /with AVS (-march=corei7, -mtune=corei7,
-march=corei7-avx, -mtune=corei7-avx);
- support for AMD Bobcat (fam 14) processors (-march=btver1, -mtune=btver1);
Caveat:
- Most libstdc++ standard headers have been changed to no longer include
the cstddef header as an implementation detail.
