[vdr] No video ouput
Hi,
I'm trying to get VDR to work with my Nebula DigiTV PCI DVB-T card.
I have the card working with my kernel 2.4.24 and the latest dvb drivers.
I can see video and hear audio with
tzap "BBC One"
dvbstream -o -ps -qam 16 -cr 3_4 600 601 | mplayer -
I've compiled up VDR-1.2.6 successfuly (or at least no errors) and
copied the relevant config files to /video.
I've got a new copy of the channels.conf relevant to London.
I start up VDR but nothing happens. /var/log/messsages reports
Apr 8 20:05:36 mythtv vdr[1828]: VDR version 1.2.6 started
Apr 8 20:05:36 mythtv vdr[1828]: loading /video/sources.conf

Apr 8 20:05:36 mythtv vdr[1828]: loading /video/keymacros.conf
Apr 8 20:05:36 mythtv vdr[1828]: found 1 video device
Apr 8 20:05:36 mythtv vdr[1828]: setting primary device to 1
Apr 8 20:05:36 mythtv vdr[1828]: device 1 has no MPEG decoder
Apr 8 20:05:36 mythtv vdr[1828]: SVDRP listening on port 2001
No errors here.
If I start up vdr as a daemon I can log in on port 2001 and issue
commands. Oddly enough I can't when it runs standalone.
However I still see absoultely nothing on screen. VDR just sits there
with nothing happening.
Have I missed something fundamental like I need to compile in
framebuffer support, or another client that needs to run to connect? I
have trawled through every message I can can find but can't see anything
that might give me a clue. I did see that other people have used the
nebula PCI card so that gives me some hope <grin>.
All advice greatly welcomed.
Rob.
