Low volume on Pro7 ?
by Harald Milz 17 Jun '05

17 Jun '05

Hi, is it just my setup or does Pro7 actually have a far lower volume than all other channels? I'm using Werner's 261d firmware with AC3overDVB from a FF 1.3 card over an optical SPDIF link into a home cinema system. While we're at that, has anyone been working on a limiter to keep the advertising blocks' volumes down? As most of you will know, the ad blocks have an average level 3 dB above the average level in the rest of the material. This is very annoying particularly after a low volume … [View More]

Firmware 0x261e and DVD playback
by André Weidemann 17 Jun '05

17 Jun '05

Hello Werner, I was wondering whether or not you changed anything in the new firmware that improves the Pan&Scan problem inside menus we discussed a while ago. I just tried the latest firmware under vdr-1.3.23 with the CVS-version of the dvd plugin. But from what I could see the Pan&Scan option still does nothing more than a center-cut-out. Did you change anything in the firmware to improve the display? André.

replay audio record, fastrewind, play: firmware hangs
by Wolfgang Rohdewald 16 Jun '05

16 Jun '05

hi, I am using vdr 1.3.25 unpatched with the latest beta firmware 261e. This is what I get after having added a little bit more debug output showing the SubStreamType. The SubStreamType found varies. The record is not pre 1.3.19. This happens _only_ after fastrewind/play, fastforward/play works correctly. I'd say there is a bug in vdr which triggers a bug in the firmware (assuming the firmware should never hang on wrong input) Also, are those messages "SetBrokenLink..." really needed for … [View More]pure audio records? vdr ignores timeouts on OSDSetBlock and similar functions. Shouldn't it rather do something like restart itself and the driver?

trouble with fast scrolling
by Wolfgang Rohdewald 15 Jun '05

15 Jun '05

crossposting since I am not sure where the problem is: vdr or firmware if I watch a channel with DD audio like ZDF (even if I only select the normal audio channel) and then do pagewise scrolling in the channel list (right or left arrow), vdr dies soon with Jun 15 07:00:52 mm vdr[10220]: clearing device because of consecutive poll timeouts if I increase the poll timeout from 100 to 1000 in cTransfer::Action(), I instead get this: Jun 15 07:11:33 mm vdr[18854]: buffer usage: 70% (tid=147463) … [View More]

I am using the latest release of the Mplayer Plugin (0.9.12) and when I play an mpeg with it, VDR will crash if a timer goes off while I am playing the file.

master-timer list of usable channels ?
by Gregoire Favre 14 Jun '05

14 Jun '05

Hello, what's the way to tell master timer which channels that could be used ? Would it be possible to tell him to "only" use the channels 1 to 123 for example, as autopid could add some "not usable" channels after those ? Thank you very much, -- Gr\'egoire Favre
