Minor bug in channel list (affects 1.4 and previous versions)
by Pasi Juppo 26 Jun '06

26 Jun '06

Hi, Noticed minor bug in channel list when I added more groups to the list. When the group name is the next line after the last one on the screen it is not shown in the next page. One way to see the group name is to scroll the list backwards till the group because it is not in the same position anymore (this depends on the number of the channels in the list). Br, Pasi

RE: [vdr] How to determine which recording is cutted

Via VDR no, via Unix/shell use 'lsof' with VDR process ID & user fields to see open files. Probably process with open files "/video/AAA/001.vdr" and "/video/%AAA/.." is the cutting process => directory AAA is cutted to dir %AAA. I think in Linux lsof is … [View More]

vdr 1.4.1: Confused after /video full
by Wolfgang Fritz 25 Jun '06

25 Jun '06

I am running vdr 1.4.1. Some days ago I found it running in the morning. It hadn't shut down after a recording. Trying a manual shutdown gave the error message: "Recording in -244 minutes. Really shutdown?" (not this message exactly, but the German version). Pressing "OK" did not work, I had to log in to a console and to do a "shutdown -h". Reason: /video was full, no recordings could be deleted, so VDR tried in vain again and again to start the programmed recording. Shouldn't VDR stop its … [View More]

DVB device discovery at startup
by Laz 25 Jun '06

25 Jun '06

I've got one PCI DVB device and two USB DVB devices. Sometimes vdr would only find one device, even though the others seemed to be working OK. I've now tracked down why. vdr starts with /dev/dvb/adapterX/frontend0 where X = 0, increments X until it can't access the device, and then stops looking. This is probably the right way to do this but occasionally, I end up with the following devices: /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0 /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend2 /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend3 I have yet … [View More]

OS Upgrade left VDR broken...
by Mlists 24 Jun '06

24 Jun '06

Hi all -- I did an OS update today and it seems to have broken a few things. In particular it might be related to GCC being 4.1.1 now. Here's the error: ccache g++ -fPIC -g -O2 -Wall -Woverloaded-virtual -c -DREMOTE_KBD -DLIRC_DEVICE=\"/dev/lircd\" -DRCU_DEVICE=\"/dev/ttyS1\" -D_GNU_SOURCE -DVIDEODIR=\"/video0\" -DPLUGINDIR=\"./PLUGINS/lib\" -DVFAT -I/vdr/DVB/include config.c menuitems.h:23: error: extra qualification 'cMenuEditItem::' on member 'SetValue' I was also getting a bunch of … [View More]

How to determine which recording is cutted

24 Jun '06

Hi folks, I asked it some time ago but got no answer so I try it again: is there a way to determine, which recording is cutted while cutting is in progress? I need this for my ExtRecMenu-plugin to avoid editing this recording. Greets, Martin

Possible bug in cPipe
by s.huelswitt＠gmx.de 24 Jun '06

24 Jun '06

Hi, It think there is a bug in cPipe::Open() : if (strcmp(Mode, "r") == 0) { mode = "r"; iopipe = 1; } close(fd[iopipe]); f = fdopen(fd[1 - iopipe], mode); if ((f = fdopen(fd[1 - iopipe], mode)) == NULL) { LOG_ERROR; close(fd[1 - iopipe]); } Seems to be a double fdopen(), leaking some memory/stream descriptor. Regards. -- Stefan Huelswitt s.huelswitt(a)gmx.de | http://www.muempf.de/

hardcoded NTSC/PAL values in VDR?
by C.Y.M 23 Jun '06

23 Jun '06

There seem to be a few hardcoded values for PAL in VDR's source code. Klaus, can you tell me if any of these would make a difference to a NTSC only system? I know that most tv's in Europe can do both NTSC and PAL. Unfortunately, almost all the tv's in America only support NTSC and cant handle the PAL formats. BR.
