[SOLVED] No sound with VLC and streamdev
by Sascha Volkenandt 22 Mar '05

22 Mar '05

Hi list, current CVS version of streamdev contains a new remuxer, which is an external program. Together with the replex tool from http://www.metzlerbros.de/dvb it seems to be possible to have sound with VLC (not tested by myself, but a colleague). Again, here is the cvs repo: cvs -d:pserver:anoncvs@vdr-developer.org:/var/cvsroot login cvs -d:pserver:anoncvs@vdr-developer.org:/var/cvsroot co streamdev Be aware that things like the client menu may or may not work. The server part seems to work good, at least in HTTP mode. The content in the cvs is designed to work with current VDRs (at least 1.3.18, I guess). I am using 1.3.22 so far. Currently, it is not configurable how the script is called, it must be called "/root/externremux.sh". It must be something that takes TS on stdin and delivers "anything playable" on stdout. With the replex tool the script looks like this: #!/bin/bash /usr/bin/replex -t DVD You can access a stream involving the external remuxer with an URL like this: http://<server>:<port>/Extern/<channel> Greetings, Sascha

ANNOUNCE: graphlcd-0.1.2-pre5
by Andreas Regel 22 Mar '05

22 Mar '05

Hi, here is a new pre-release of the GraphLCD base package and plugin for VDR. Because of the additional font attributes expect slighly misaligned display items when not using fonts converted from true type. - the base package containing driver library, graphics library and tools http://powarman.de/files/graphlcd-base-0.1.2-pre5.tgz - the plugin package containing the plugin itself, the logos and fonts http://powarman.de/files/vdr-graphlcd-0.1.2-pre5.tgz Andreas Changes since 0.1.2-pre4: - glcddrivers: sed1330: added missing horizontal scrolling initialization. Now, there should be no displaced display any longer. (thanks to Wolfgang Astleitner) - glcddrivers: Now serdisplib is loaded dynamically using libdl. So, no INCLUDE_SERDISPLIB define is needed any longer (thanks to Wolfgang Astleitner) - glcddrivers: fixed gu256x64-3900 driver: Now sizes other than 256x64 should work. (thanks to Detlef Ruge and Ralf Müller) - glcdgraphics: fixed a bug in cBitmap::DrawText that prevented scrolling from working. - glcdgraphics: fixed a bug in cBitmap::SubBitmap. - glcdgraphics: changed the interface of DrawText and DrawCharacter of cBitmap class. - glcdgraphics: extended font attributes to better support converted true type fonts. Also changed font file format to support this attributes. - glcdgraphics: the lastChange attribute of cGLCDFile now is 64 bits wide. - crtfont: extended it to support the new font attributes - crtfont: changed file format of description files. Now the font attributes are given by its names, p. e. lineheight:20. Look in README.crtfont for details. - new tool genfont: allows converting of true type fonts to GraphLCD fonts using freetype2 library. You have to uncomment HAVE_FREETYPE2 in Make.config to use it. - added new fonts verdana and verdana bold in sizes 9 to 29 converted by genfont. - added possibility to switch on backlight at user activity and switch it off at user inactivity (thanks to Andreas Brachold). Can be enabled or disabled in setup menu. - added additional space between progress bar and logo on small LCDs (thanks to Andreas Brachold). - added loopmode display in mp3 replay mode (thanks to Wolfgang Fritz). - replaced usleep with cCondWait::SleepMs() for vdr version 1.3.14 or greater - adapted to changes in vdr 1.3.18 - now using verdana fonts converted by genfont as default for large displays.

Weird, I cannot tune to that channel at all. The only major change after my previous successful attempt is that it was broadcasted on 498MHz/COM128 at that time... Teemu
