Hi Sebastian,
The new version also introduces some new features and is not a targeted
bug fix release. Please cherry pick the fixes if you deem them
important.
You are right in the part that this upload is not *solely* a bugfix release.
Unlike Kodi itself, Kodi add-ons may implement new features per release policy.
The only requirement is not to introduce breaking changes in release branch
targeting current stable Kodi version (19.x). Branches targeting old-stable
Kodi version (18.x) receive only targeted fixes for security & grave functional
issues.
However, as a user of PVR IPTVSimple, I insist that it is better for an end-user
to have this release in bullseye rather not to have.
Let's consider the changelog for the release chain (omitting commits that touch
only version in addon XML manifest and the changelog file):
v7.6.5:
Allow embedded commas in channel name in M3U
This change has numerously been asked on Kodi forums in the past years.
Plus, I had to strip excessive commas from Divan.TV channel names not to break
M3U parser for my HTPC.
v7.6.4:
Only use Local logo location if file is relative
Add string initialisation from macros as some linux fail to compile without it
This is a low-risk change because the release on Debian compiles without issues.
The logo commit is a fix for buggy logic for *some* users who provide custom logo
packs for their IPTV channels.
v7.6.2:
Always load EPG data if we prefer XMLTV logos or catchup is enabled
Allow catchup correction (timezone shift) when live URLs have catchup placeholders
This commit is another correction for a previously buggy behavior that resulted in
irregular updates of EPG data. The PVR timeshift mode introduced in Kodi 19.0 requires
daily update of EPG info, and this commit ensures the update takes place.
v7.6.1:
Update readme
update text for path type option
Allow ignoring M3U logos when using local logo path
This is a requested feature correcting previously buggy behavior (see [1]).
The readme part is a documentation fix reflecting the new logic.
v7.6.0:
Support xeev XC catchup prefixes
Add setting for catchup correction
Disable other catchup settings if catched is not enabled
Allow flusonnic channel ids containing forward slashes
Support url-tvg in M3U header in addition to x-tvg-url
Add support for XZ compression of XMLTV data
This was requested in Kodi reddit group (if my memory serves me well.
because I can not find the exact post).
v7.5.1:
Ensure channel's catchup window is used instead of value from settings
Treat 'tvg-rec' catchup tag like the siptv 'timeshift' tag
Fix typo
This is a correction to timeshift ('catchup') code making the addon to
recognize M3U 'tvg-rec' tag supplying the path to TV archive stream.
v7.5.0:
Allow setting scope for channels using catchup mode setting to enable overriding
Support sub channel numbers
This was requested in [2].
Given that I use IPTVSimple daily on testing, I hope the release gets accepted as
is.
I am also CC'ing Ross Nicholson aka phunkyfish so he is aware about the matter.
Cheers,
vasyl
