Freevo version 1.7.1 has been released. Freevo is a Linux application that turns a PC with a TV capture card and/or TV-out into a standalone multimedia jukebox/VCR/PVR/HTPC.

This release contains some new features and some significant bug fixes.  A native ALSA misxer has been added, a wide screen skin "Panorama" has been added, a TV recordings manager has been added and user defined commands can now be sent to the Xine player  The TV_RECORD_PADDING has been removed, use TV_RECORD_PADDING_PRE and TV_RECORD_PADDING_POST instead.
