24/03/2017 E2 Update Dreambox OE2.5

4.3.1r1
- video encoder
- added advanced settings for better quality with same bitrate
- allow to configure number of B-Frames (0 and 2 is valid)
- allow to configure number of P-Frames in range 0 .. 14 (only when no GOP length is set)
- allow to set a GOP Length in range 0 to 65535 ms
- allow to enable open GOP support
- allow to enable "new gop on scene change" when no B-Frames are used
- added more framerates

- fixed frequently lost root filesystem entry in fstab
- added/fixed some key mappings for CEC

- added some basic snr calculation for satip-client (must be supported by the server!)
- better readable debug output for SEC / frontend
- switched Durline Dur-DCR5-1-8(L4/K) to Unicable 1 instead of Unicable2/JESS
- take care of "use increased voltage" settings even for unicable
- added on-the-fly tuner mode switching between cable/sat/terrestrial on channel change
- allow to link from tuner A1 to A2 and vice versa
- transponder searching
- add and prefer auto modulation handling in manual scan for DVB-C when possible
- add and prefer auto fec and auto modulation handling in manual scan when possible
- detect ac3+ audio streams as audio streams in pat scan
- take care of multi-type tuners in automatic scan

- skin / OSD
- fixed skin zPosition reset when none has been given as keyword-arg
- use triple buffering for smoother osd
- menu: use 256x256 instead of 24x24 as default size for menu svg's (this fixes heavy upscaling on png->svg fallback)
- set start-up resolution to 1280x720 to match the default skin
- add scale-type stretch where needed (PluginBrowser and some other places)
- implement "color defined borders".
- instead of "filename=" you can use "color=" and "size=" where size defines:
- the height for top/bottom
- the width for left/right and corners
- corner height is defined by top/bottom height
- example:
* <pixmap pos="bpTopLeft" color="#44FF0000" size="10"/> => top left corner, transparent red, 10 pixels wide
* <pixmap pos="bpTop" color="#4400FF00" size="40" /> => top border, transparent green, height 40 pixels, top corners inherit the height of 40 pixels
* repeat for all borders or skip what shouldn't be around
- you can mix pixmap and color based borders
- color based borders would be painted atop pixmap based borders if both are defined (you could probably apply tinting to neutral and simple pixmaps using that technique)
- added some options for ePixmap.setScale(...) and scale= in skins, fix code-bugs related to setScale, too (it's no immediate, some broken things have been removed)
- ePixmap.SCALE_TYPE_NONE: "off" / "none" in skins
- ePixmap.SCALE_TYPE_ASPECT: "on" / "aspect" in skins
- ePixmap.SCALE_TYPE_CENTER: "center" in skins
- ePixmap.SCALE_TYPE_WIDTH: "width" in skins
- ePixmap.SCALE_TYPE_HEIGHT: "height" in skins
- fixed redraw after failed mode change in VideoSetup
- fixed several Widget Animation issues
- fixed enabling animations when disabled at boot time
- fixed display animations not working without OSD widget animations being enabled

- read and use /proc/stb/lcd/colorformat if exists ... only RGB_565_LE and RGB_565_BE are supported yet, RGB_565_BE is default for 16bpp when no proc entry exists..
