[vdr] AW: Re: ANNOUNCE: vdr-analogtv-0.2.0

["David Koruga" <davidkoruga@gmx.de>]

Hi all,

i have some serious problems getting the analogtv plugins to work.
Everything works fine until i try to start the plugin:
ERROR: /usr/local/src/VDR/PLUGINS/lib/libvdr-analogtv.so.1.1.25:
undefined symbol: esd_record_stream_fallback
esd_record_stream_fallback is a function of the esound package as far as
i can see. I tried different versions of esound but it did not help.
I would be very thankfull if someone can give me a hint how to solve
this.
It would also help to know wich versions of esound people use where it
works. 
Thank you all in advance

Greetz
David

includes a rather old version of my patch, but we wanted to release a
snapshot to show the progress of the plugin. My minimum target is to
delivere a patch which is as good as the metzerler brothers code (in
respect to the result).

which breaks the code. But mp1e is producing this code, and as far as i
understood mpeg mp1e generates valid code. I tried to simplifie the
handling of the streams (my code does not include different handling for
mpeg1 and mpeg2). I have one version of the patch which delivers a
perfekt image in transfermode for all broadcast i can get, but this
version has problem with internal buffersizes.

As i said bevore this is the realy first version, its mostly a proof of
concept. I will give you a notice if i think i got a version which is
worth to be included.
