[vdr] AW: DVD sync patch for vdr-0.97

["Manfred Schmidt-Voigt" <1187-184@onlinehome.de>]

Andreas,

keep on rockin..

It sounds great, especially your plans to implement also SVCD. On saturday I
started using the J2 connector on my GALAXY card to connect it directly to
the RGB inputs of my TV set (an old LOEWE contur 63, about 12(?) years old.
I couldn't believe that the picture could be that good. But I have to trim
the colors a little bit down. Otherwise it's too good.

For the SVCD's I use the ATI rage 128 (very cheap) card with video out. But
that is really bad compared against the RGB output of the DVD-S card.

Also, hau rein!
Manfred

> Further plans for the DVD stuff are:
>
>    1. replace ac3dec with liba52, this would allow 4 and 6 audio channel
>       decoding for cards that support this
>    2. implement SPU decoding (subtitle and menus)
>    3. implement *full* DVD navigation (actually, i already have this, but
>       it's not doing any good without 2.)
>    4. SVCD/MPEG 1 playback (simple)
>    5. steal^H^H^H^H^Hborrow DIVX stuff from MPlayer ;-)

> Any comments?
