Yes, I know.  But the information in d/copyright is wrong and this is a bug.

That's definitely not true since in gitmode watch files can return the
latest commit.  And somehow the version looks pretty much like the
latest commit from "somewhere" (!= the Github repository),  If I would
have been sure I would have sent a patch but its simply not clear from
what Git repository source was obtained from.

Thus my bug report.  I wonder whether you consider the VDR team a sensible
team or whether it might be rather multimedia-team.

Kind regards
