It is rare, but the situation can occur. Also, I can not take the credit for this work. It was posted on one of the forums I frequently browse. I just felt that it was odd for vdr to presume that multiple channels on the same transponder, which are decrypted by the same caid, can be handled by the same card. Perhaps it it true in other systems. Best Regards,

DVB-T card for noisy signal?
by Markku Tavasti 07 Mar '05

07 Mar '05

I have VDR running with one Hauppauge Nova-T. I am getting another card, but the problem is which? My antenna signal is somewhat noisy. So questions is, what card to get which is linux compatible and working fine with bad signal? - Hauppauge Nova-T? - TechniSat AirStar 2 DVB-T PCI - Terratec Cinergy 1200 DVB-T - VisionPlus DTV - Nebula DigiTV - Pinnacle PCTV MediaCenter 300i DVB-T At the moment I'm running 2.4 kernel, but I suppose switching to 2.6 series is not a problem. -- M.

lirc problems with VDR 1.3 under kernel 2.6.
by Carsten Koch 06 Mar '05

06 Mar '05

Hi, is anybody else experiencing sluggish response to remote control commands? It started when I updated to kernel 2.6 and VDR 1.3. I did a quick test tonight and ran both irw and vdr in parallel, to see whether it's lirc or vdr that's dropping my remote control commands? I could reproduce the following situation: I pressed the menu key while watching live TV and irw correctly showed it. vdr did not react. I pressed the menu key many more times and every time irw correctly showed it, while vdr just rarely brought up/removed the main menu. In between, I also pressed up/down sometimes and vdr always reacted to that key. Has anybody else observed this bug? Any solution or workaround yet? Would you suggest that I put some test code into VDR to debug it? Carsten.

Allow recording of encrpted and FTA channel simultaneously
by C.Y.M 06 Mar '05

06 Mar '05

Since it is only possible to view one encrypted channel per card, this patch allows vdr to record both an encrypted and a FTA channel, simultaneously, using a single dvb card.

Radio/TV channel switch
by Uwe Ortner 06 Mar '05

06 Mar '05

I know this isnt on the top priority list ... I have about 2500 channels available, if I could fade out or switch between radio and tv channels this would be a great help managing the channel list uwe

VDR Watchdog strikes back after SVDRP connect
by Helmut Auer 06 Mar '05

06 Mar '05

Hi, I got a report of a user of my distri with the following log entries: Mar 6 13:30:53 [vdr] channel 16 (3sat) event 13:30 'Vis-à-vis: Leoluca Orlando' status 4 Mar 6 13:31:13 [vdr] connect from 127.0.0.1, port 1055 - accepted Mar 6 13:32:15 [vdr] PANIC: watchdog timer expired - exiting! -- Mar 6 15:29:18 [vdr] channel 19 (ZDFinfokanal) event 15:30 'Die Seher' status 4 Mar 6 15:32:33 [vdr] connect from 127.0.0.1, port 1061 - accepted Mar 6 15:33:37 [vdr] PANIC: watchdog timer expired - exiting! He was watching television and was definitely doing nothing with the remote control. On the VDR-Portal I found no hints about this problem, but some logs which are showing exactly the same behaviour: Watchdog timer one minute after a connect. Can anyone give me any hints, what can cause this problem ? -- Helmut Auer, helmut(a)helmutauer.de
