One VDR with two displays?
by Stephan Loescher 12 Feb '06

12 Feb '06

Hi! Is it possible to use one VDR-server with two "output-devices"? My plan is to use one VDR-server with a FF-card which should display its output via the FF-card on a small CRT-television with analog-sound over FBAS (this is no problem. I have already done that part of my plan.) and at the same time (!) via DVI- or VGA-out on a beamer/projector with AC3-sound. With this setup I could control the system with one remote-control and be able to use the CRT for small transmissions like news and use the beamer for movies. My next problem on this setup is that my VDR-server is located downstairs because there the noise it makes doesn't matter. And the CRT and beamer should be located in the living room. (The connection VDR-to-CRT is already to use. That was not the problem.) So there are two problems remaining: - How can I get out VDRs picture (incl. OSD) on the DVI/VGA-port? - How can I get this signal plus AC3-sound into the living room? The smartest solution would be over ethernet, because I have ethernet in every room. The "big" solution that is obvious would be a VDR-streaming-client in the living room , but are there no other possibilities? Any ideas?

RE: [vdr] Different languaghes on right/left channel
by Anders 12 Feb '06

12 Feb '06

After an upgrade to 1.3.34 all works just fine while viewing Eurosport and Nickelodeon. But if I make a recording from Eurosport och Nickelodeon and replay that recording I get audio channels "1" and "2" instead of the "nor+fin" and "sve+dan" i get during wathcing live tv. Is this expected behaviour or have I overlooked somethins else?

Problem with Text2Skin since VDR 1.3.38
by Peter Juszack 12 Feb '06

12 Feb '06

I have a problem with Text2Skin and DeepBlue-0.1.4. Since upgrading to VDR version > 1.3.37 logos on the replay bar changed or disappered completly. I played around a little bit and tried to unload as many plugins as possible but the problem still remains. I downgraded to VDR-1.3.37 and the logos were correct again. Unfortunately I was not able to test with 1.3.38 or 1.3.39 because these versions produced conflicts. So I can not say from what version onwards the problem occurs. With current version 1.3.42 text2skin and DeepBlue work fine but the replay logos are incorrect: Replay of VDR recording: - left side navigation logos (replay,pause ...) are displayed - right side double arrow logo is missing MP3 replay with mp3-0.9.14 - left side navigation logos (replay,pause ...) are displayed but mp3 plugins specific logos ( shuffle, loop ) are missing - right side mp3 logo ( notes ) is missing DVD playback - left side navigation logos are missing - right side DVD logo is missing => no logos at all The syslog does not give hints. I remember that there was a change with the replay status in VDR some time ago. It seems that text2skin does not get the correct info which source is replayed so DeepBlue can not choose the correct logos. Anyone a guess? Regards Peter

little bug in cMenuEditStrItem?
by Markus Hahn 12 Feb '06

12 Feb '06

Hi everybody, the issue is found in SetupRecordings->Name instant recording: If I edit the item an press enter to confirm the change I stay in the actuall menu, editing mode ist off. On the other hand, if I do not confirm the change an go out with kBack I the menu goes to the last parent menu. I think kBack should make the same like kOK without remember the changes. regard Markus

BUG ? : VDR wakes up additional videodisks while (re)starting VDR and while searching for Deleted Recordings
by christian jacobsen 12 Feb '06

12 Feb '06

Hallo, I have noticed that VDR now - can't say at the moment at what version it started - wakeup the additinal videodisks when (re)starting the vdr program, this was previously not so. Maybe it is since the delted recordings are included in the "free" videospace or it has something to do with the caching of the recording list !? The same thing has allways happended when the list of Delete Recordings is created by an VDR internal function - unfortunatly I don't know what function that is. This can be tested with the Undelete plugin : http://www.fast-info.de/vdr/undelete/index.htm Would it be possible to somehow change this ? Normally it should not be necessary to use the [0-9][0-9][0-9].vdr files when creating those lists. The only thing that comes into my mind in this context is that it is used to calculate the free size including the deleted recordings !? If that is the case then maybe index.vdr could be used instead to find out how many minutes the deleted recording is and add that to the free time instead of using the size :) Or somehow check if the videofiles are linked and then don't touch them. A litte Background info. I have got 3 disks in my VDR and it is placed in my Livingroom. To reduce noise and Heat I let the second and third disk sleep most of the time. VDR only knows of the first disk /video and the recordings are then split to the other disks when cutting or reorganizing with AutoCutter. Maybe that has something to do with this problem !?

vdr-1.3.42 + alphacrypt cam + premiere
by Halim Sahin 11 Feb '06

11 Feb '06

Hi, When I shutdown my vdr box while a premiere channel is selected, the result is that after a reboot the premiere channel can't get a signal. It is enough to go to the channels menu and select the same channel to get a signal again. The same behaviour happens after reloading the modules of the dvb card. I am using a tt dvb-c 2.1 with kernel 2.6.13 Thank Halim

Hello, is it possible to make the dvd player plugin remember its last playing position at exit? So I don't have to seek the correct position each time my children are allowed to watch their movie for another 10 minutes... Dirk

[ANNOUNCE] VDR developer version 1.3.41
by Klaus Schmidinger 10 Feb '06

10 Feb '06

VDR developer version 1.3.41 is now available at ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.3.41.tar.bz2 A 'diff' against the previous version is available at ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.3.40-41.diff The changes since version 1.3.40: - EPG events from epg.data or SVDRP's PUTE command now have their Title set to "No Title" if none was set. - Fixed checking toFile in cCuttingThread::Action() (found in a larger patch from Artur Skawina). - Fixed a crash when pressing '0' in the "Schedule" menu on a channel that doesn't have any EPG data (reported ny Alexander Hans). - Updated the Danish OSD texts (thanks to Mogens Elneff). - Fixed a missing ',' in the Greek OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov). - Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov). - Fixed handling the tfRecording flag when reading timers (bug reported by Andreas Mair). - Now checking whether the channel exists before setting the PMT filter in cPatFilter::Process() (thanks to Thomas Bergwinkl). - Now trying to reestablish the connection to the LIRC daemon in case it breaks (thanks to Ville Skyttä). - Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Fixed channel switching with the Down (Up) key in case the current channel is already the first (last) in the list (reported by Frank Krömmelbein). - Removed the "buffer reserve" in Transfer Mode - it's no longer necessary with recent driver/firmware versions. - The epg.data file is now written when VDR exits (suggested by Daniel Karsubka). - Fixed cTimers::GetNextActiveTimer() so that it won't return an expired timer (reported by Rolf Ahrenberg). - Changed DVBS_TUNE_TIMEOUT and DVBC_TUNE_TIMEOUT to 9000ms to avoid problems with channels that have low symbol rates (reported by Suur Karu). - Fixed displaying the current audio track in the channel display. - When reading epg.data (or data from PUTE), the version number of events with table IDs smaller than 0x50 is now ignored because otherwise the current running status would not be set after a restart of VDR. - Implemented a timeout for remote controls that don't deliver "repeat" keypresses very fast (based on a suggestion by Luca Olivetti; problem with the new handling of k_Repeat keypresses in channel switching reported by Udo Richter). - When looking for the present or following EPG event, the running status is now always taken into account. - Now initializing the channels' schedule pointers when reading the epg.data file, so that the first WhatsOn menu will come up faster. - If a shutdown is requested, but the shutdown script doesn't actually halt the system, it is now tried again after 5 minutes (suggested by Helmut Auer). - Separated the 'install' target into several individual targets; renamed the 'plugins-install' target to 'install-plugins' (thanks to Helmut Auer). Have fun! Klaus
