VDR 1.3.29 'make install' fails if no plugins have been built
by Daniel THOMPSON 30 Aug '05

30 Aug '05

Hi Folks The changes to the Makefile in 1.3.29 (and still present in 1.3.31) prevent 'make install' from working if no plugins have been built. Attached is a small patch for 1.3.31 to split install into install and plugins-install (to mirror clean and plugins-clean). -- Daniel Thompson (STMicroelectronics) <daniel.thompson(a)st.com> 1000 Aztec West, Almondsbury, Bristol, BS32 4SQ. 01454 462659 If a car is a horseless carriage then is a motorcycle a horseless horse?

Problem with budget and CAM
by Tomas Prybil 30 Aug '05

30 Aug '05

Hi all, I'm trying to get a budget card with CAM working. The card is reporting in /var/log/messages as having CI (or so I think) > Aug 21 20:46:51 localhost kernel: saa7146: register extension 'budget_ci dvb'. > Aug 21 20:46:51 localhost kernel: ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:0b:05.0[A] -> GSI 22 (level, low) -> IRQ 209 > Aug 21 20:46:51 localhost kernel: saa7146: found saa7146 @ mem e09cb000 (revision 1, irq 209) (0x13c2,0x100c). > Aug 21 20:46:51 localhost kernel: DVB: … [View More]

[PATCH] Suspend/resume playback by remote control
by Marko Mäkelä 29 Aug '05

29 Aug '05

I patched VDR 1.3.30 so that audio/video playback can be suspended by pressing a remote control key, no matter which menu is open. This patch can also power off the monitor and speakers when playback is suspended. That part is behind another #ifdef. Last but not least, the new "Suspend" key can be used as an intelligent power-off key. If this feature is enabled and the playback is suspended by pressing the key, and no other key is pressed within a timeout (currently SHUTDOWNWAIT, but later … [View More]

Querying CAM doesn't work
by Klaus Schmidinger 29 Aug '05

29 Aug '05

According to EN 50221 an application should be able to query whether a given CAM can decrypt an actual broadcast by sending it a CA_PMT with a ca_pmt_cmd_id of "query" instead of "ok_descrambling". However, if I change the line capmt[length++] = CPCI_OK_DESCRAMBLING; in VDR/ci.c to capmt[length++] = CPCI_QUERY; I never get a ca_pmt_reply as specified in EN 50221, section 8.4.3.5. Does anybody have an idea why that is so? Is there a bug in VDR's CAM handling? Could it be that the … [View More]

[PATCH] ignore k_Repeat in cInterface::Wait()
by Marko Mäkelä 29 Aug '05

29 Aug '05

While testing my suspend patch (see the previous message), I noticed somewhat annoying behaviour of cInterface::Wait(). If I press the "Suspend" key for a long time, so that it makes a normal keypress event as well as a k_Repeat event, the "Press any key to cancel shutdown" prompt will be cleared by the k_Repeat event. I presume that the same would happen with the "Power" key. If I understood the loop termination condition in cInterface::Wait() correctly, only k_Repeat of kOk would be … [View More]

UPDATE: vdr-1.3.31-dvbplayer5.patch
by Reinhard Nissl 28 Aug '05

28 Aug '05

Hi, from http://home.vr-web.de/~rnissl/vdr-patches-README.txt dvbplayer5 (highly recommended) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ fixes VDR's recording replayer to send proper I-frames to a device. Without this patch it is very likely that incomplete I-frames are sent and therefore many I-frames will not be displayed by devices like vdr-xine or dxr3. This patch has a very positive effect on moving cutting marks and all fast trickspeed modes as well as slow motion rewind. NOTE: without this … [View More]
