transcode any movie to vdr format
by Glyn Edwards 31 Jul '06

31 Jul '06

Hi, I've just started playing with VDR again for the first time since version 1.2 something. It has improved immensely, well done to everyone, especially Klaus. My question is, has anyone made a script for transcoding video files to the vdr format? The reason I ask is that if I can play files from the vdr format I can fast forward etc... using the remote. I haven't managed to get that working as well with the mplayer plugin. Thanks, Glyn

Some information about the Streamdev plugin wanted
by Torsten Schlabach 31 Jul '06

31 Jul '06

Hi all! I am currentry trying to make the Streamdev plugin work, especially in non vdr-vdr setup, but more to establish a general streaming source on my network in order to use PCs and or standalone streaming clients with it, but my mileage is very limited. In other words: Sometimes I managed to get a radio channel streamed, sometimes I didn't. I am currently using vdr 1.4.0 together with a fresh CVS checkout from the CVS at vdr-developer.org (as of yesterday). Maybe someone could be … [View More]

VDR does not save channels.conf
by Torsten Schlabach 31 Jul '06

31 Jul '06

Hi all! I have used UpdateChannels = 4 in my setup.conf. I can see in the syslog that vdr is doing lots of updating, which is what I want. But it does not save these updates to channels.conf for some reaon. So whenever I restart vdr it has to get all the updates done from scratch. Is this by design or do I have a problem? I am running vdr 1.4.0. Regards, Torsten

[Patch] Cannot delete last char in insert mode
by Udo Richter 30 Jul '06

30 Jul '06

Hi list, I've fixed a small editing bug: For menu string edit items, when in insert mode, its impossible to delete the last character of the string. Steps to reproduce: - Go into some edit field: [A]BCDEF - Switch to insert mode : []ABCDEF - Move into the string : ABC[]DEF - Press yellow key : ABC[]EF - Press yellow key : ABC[]F - Press yellow key : ABC[]F - nothing happens. This doesn't happen if you move the cursor to the end once, as this will insert a blind space: … [View More]

More flexibility with fonts
by daliman 27 Jul '06

27 Jul '06

Hi, i describe my question in german. I hope somebody can help me. Ich möchte die Fontgröße in den OSD-Menüs und z.B. der Programminfo separat einstellen können. Dazu müsste ich wissen wie man abfragen kann ob man sich in Menüs oder z.B. der Programmliste, Channelliste etc. befindet. So könnte ich einen vierten Font erstellen den man dann separat für Menüs auswählen kann. Gruß, DaLiMan

Writing a VDR frontend
by CR 27 Jul '06

27 Jul '06

Hi, I'm considering writing a frontend for VDR that talks to it via SVDRP. How does : 1. One grab the OSD data ? 2. Grab the (demuxed?) audio/video stream? For the OSD data I've looked in osd.h but wasn't sure how a client application hooks VDR's OSD. Any documents or code examples would be appreciate. Thanks. CR. P.S. Maybe I'm a fool taking this on, who knows...

Hi, I was rebuilding my kernel to 2.6.17.7 and decided to update the dvb drivers (from the latest HG repository) at the same time. After that, I cant seem to build vdr-1.4.1-2 any longer.
