mixing cards - 1 DVB-S & 1 DVB-T
by whoMAN 17 Feb '06

17 Feb '06

Hello, I have a HAUPPAUGE NOVA-S budget card, as well as a DVICO FUSION GOLD 3 ATSC card. I have just finished installing VDR, and now I need to make my channels.conffile. How can I tell VDR which DVB card to use for which channel? DVB-S = DVB 0 DVB-T = DVB 1 I know this is something simple I'm forgetting, so please forgive my ignorance on this subject. $ dmesg|grep DVB DVB: registering new adapter (TT-Budget/WinTV-NOVA-CI PCI). DVB: registering frontend 0 (ST STV0299 DVB-S)... DVB: registering new adapter (cx88[0]). DVB: registering frontend 1 (LG Electronics LGDT3302 VSB/QAM Frontend)...

bug in vdr-1.3.42?
by Halim Sahin 17 Feb '06

17 Feb '06

Hello, After updating from vdr-1.3.34 I have some Problems with vdr 1.3.42. 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 Please help _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr(a)linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Halim Sahin E-Mail: halim.sahin(a)t-online.de

vdrsync.pl -> projectx
by Gregoire Favre 17 Feb '06

17 Feb '06

Hello, as some of my reccordings can't be processed with vdrsync.pl (I got audio errors and vdrsync.pl kill the audio stream) I would like to use projectx for some of them. I have some questions concerning projectx : is "[-cut <file>] ..use that text based file as cutpoint list" compatible with marks.vdr ? What's the command in order to produce mpeg2 files suitable for dvdauthor (the -m switch of vdrsync.pl) : -tom2p ? Is there an equivalent of "-ignore c1" for projectx ? Thank you very much, -- Grégoire FAVRE

svdrp MESG while pausing
by H.Schoebel 17 Feb '06

17 Feb '06

Hi everybody, I saw on my vdr (1.3.42) that messages via svdrpsend.pl are not shown, when vdr is 'pausing' a record-replay. Is it by design or is it an error ? Messages are showing correcty while normal viewing or replaying a record - only on pause is nothing displayed. I mean (not sure) that the messages are 'queued' until end of pausing. I send the infos of phone-callers by this way and missed it in an 'wife toilet break' ;-) ...Hagen

Fsck on HD on shutdown, if time permits
by ... 16 Feb '06

16 Feb '06

Hi, I have a large video-partition (1 TB) and would like to schedule a fsck on these partition during the shutdown of vdr once a week but only if there is enough time (let's say 1 Hour) until the next timer will be executed via nvram-wakeup. The shutdown-script seems to be problematic because vdr is still running and i will not be able to unmount the partition. During startup is always a problem, because there might be a timer waiting. Is anybody willing to give me a hint how to solve this situation ? Perhaps someone allready solved this problem. Thank you /hgm.bg

MP3/MPlayer plugin 0.9.14 available
by s.huelswitt＠gmx.de 16 Feb '06

16 Feb '06

Hi, a maintenance release of the MP3/MPlayer plugin is available from my homepage. It contains fixes for vdr 1.3.38 and other minor improvements. <http://www.muempf.de/down/vdr-mp3-0.9.14.tar.gz> NEWS: 08.01.2006: Version 0.9.14 development (vdr 1.2.6/1.3.38) - Fixed VDR hanging for some seconds when skipping songs and fixed pause mode freezing live background when using OSS output. Reported by Andy Grobb. - Now muting DVB audio while using OSS output. - Finaly restored the function of the back key (jumps directly to plugin main menu) (vdr >= 1.3.32 only). Thanks to Sascha Volkenandt for the hint. - During MPlayer playback, the name of the current videofile is now parsed from the MPlayer output. If you're using some kind of playlist hack, the MPlayer plugin will now report the correct filename. Based on suggestions from Ronny Kornexl. - Extended the example mplayer.sh file to show how a playlist can be passed to MPLayer. - Fixed segfault in progress display with skincurses. Thanks to Pasi Juppo for reporting. - Adapted to the API changes in vdr 1.3.38. -- Stefan Huelswitt s.huelswitt(a)gmx.de | http://www.muempf.de/

Thread start functions and external C linkage (VDR starts it's threads "incorrectly")
by Sascha Volkenandt 16 Feb '06

16 Feb '06

Hi everyone, hi Klaus, while discussing a paper about multithreading with pthreads, some people pointed out that it is not legal regarding standard C++ when using a static member of a class as a thread start function. The reason is that a thread start function handed to pthread_create MUST have external C linkage, which is not guaranteed to be the case with static members. In fact, many compilers declare such members with the same calling conventions that an extern "C" function uses, but the standard doesn't require this. Indeed, there are (according to external informations) compilers that act differently here. To fulfill the requirements of the standard, VDR's thread start function should have the following signature: extern "C" void *StartThread(cThread *Thread); class cThread { friend void *StartThread(cThread *Thread); /* ... */ }; Don't get me wrong, this is not a problem with current gcc versions, but... Since the standard doesn't require gcc to behave the way it does, future changes to the ABI could affect this region and could render current code unfunctional... Even worse, some implementations of pthread lack a construct that declares the members of pthread.h extern "C" when compiled in C++ mode. (But this won't be a problem here I guess, since I suppose VDR won't run on AIX, so, just for the record).

Is there anyone that have a hint what I've done wrong? Brest regards, Lars
