epg scan of a specific transponder
by syrius.ml＠no-log.org 31 Aug '06

31 Aug '06

Hi, Is there a plugin that allow to scan a specific transponder ? I know it's possible to trigger a full scan, but i would like to know if it's possible to only checks some transponders (not all). I guess an option to the svdrp SCAN command would be nice :) In fact while i'm watching a channel (using transfer mode) (using dvb card #1) i'd like to trigger the retrieval of epg of another channel (using card #2) Hmm, in a multiple dvb cards setup, using svdrp: would it be easy to: - list the dvb card and their actual use ? (freq/channel/etc... recording/watching/transfer mode ... etc) - select the card when using the SCAN command ? yes i know, i'm still hoping to use my dvb cards in a way vdr has not been developped for :) --

ff as budget?
by Leo Márquez 31 Aug '06

31 Aug '06

Hi, I'm setting my vdr server. Until now I had a vdr box with one full featured dvb-s card (nexus-s). In my server I don't need any vdr output. Now my new server have this ff card but I think I have to say to vdr that this card acts as budget. I don't remember where I read it and don't know how can I do this. Anyone can clear my doubt? Thanks.

Hi, ans thanks for your answer and for your work!! In next days I try to get few time to test your plugin. Then I explain my experience. One question. The plugin sources use ultrastar sources or it's your own code? And another, It's possible add the mpg video file like ultrastar? Thanks!!

[ANNOUNCE] VDR version 1.4.2 released
by Klaus Schmidinger 28 Aug '06

28 Aug '06

VDR version 1.4.2 is now available at ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/vdr-1.4.2.tar.bz2 A 'diff' against the previous version is available at ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.4.1-1.4.2.diff A 'diff' against the latest maintenance patch is available at ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.4.1-5-1.4.2.diff A summary of all the major changes since the last stable version can be found at http://www.cadsoft.de/vdr/download.htm This version is source compatible with the previous version, so plugins only need to be recompiled. However, plugins that react on cStatus::MsgSetVolume() may need to be adjusted in order to work with the fixed handling of relative volume changes (which was introduced in maintenance patch 1.4.1-2). Thanks to the many people who have contributed in the making, testing and debugging of this new version of VDR. Have fun! Klaus

channel number range limit?
by Timothy D. Lenz 27 Aug '06

27 Aug '06

I am using vdr1.3.44 and have a motor. I have been tring use the sat location number to group channels. I allow 3 digits after the sat number for channel numbers within that sat. So channels for sats at 127w the channel starts at 127000. To seperate channels that are added from vdr vs manually added to the list with channel numbers, I first tried adding :200000 as teh last line. This partly worked. But If I try to bring up the guide and move to a section that includes that channel number, vdr crashes. If I let it run for several hours after adding before tryin the guide, sometimes it would show without crashing, but still crashed more then not. For another test I set the last entry in the list to 127999. It then added a channel which shows in guide as 128000, but when I tried to select it, again vdr crashes. I thought maybe it was a limit of the yaepg plugin. But I get the same thing when trying the built in guide. What is the channel number range limit? Also, I notice when looking at the channel.conf that channels added from vdr rotor plugin don't show up in the conf for at least 5-10 minutes. If you shut down or crash before that, the channel entry is lost. A request for vdr 1.5 would be multi channel list where each list with contain just channels for a given sat or provider, as well as favorites list.

Softdevice and nvidia overlays, slightly updated
by CR 27 Aug '06

27 Aug '06

Stefan & everyone else , This weekend I spent time and completely un-installed my Xorg, and compiled modular Xorg 7.1 from sources. I also fetched vdr 1.4.1, and softdevice 0.2.3a, dvd-cvs and compiled them, no other plug-ins, ZERO patches to vdr or softdevice. I setup Xorg to use the "nv" driver (opensource) and found the overlay issues still persisted. This is with 5-6-5 color depth, 640x480. I then installed the newest nVidia driver, 1.0-8774, with color depth of 24bpp (32bpp), 1024x768 had the same issue. Interestingly, before I start the DVD plug-in the overlay is fine. During DVD playback the overlay has the issues I have mentioned before. But oddly, *AFTER* DVD playing is completely stopped, the overlay remains messed up. i.e., the OSD with no video in the background, telling me "invalid channel" has the artifacts. Does softdevice grab a black background image or something along those lines when video playback is first initiated and keep that for the OSD? CR.

A pity, I like the client/server architecture of Myth, thats about the only thing I like about it :) Maybe VDR has similar client/server capability someday.
