xineliboutput: "No usable fronteds"
by Jens Auer 15 Aug '06

15 Aug '06

Hi all, I'm new to vdr and am now trying to set up my first system. I don't have a ff-card and decided to use a NVidia graphics card to connect my system to the TV (I considered using a DXR3, but I want to play DIVX movies as well, for which my computer is too slow). So, i am trying to install the xineliboutput-plugin. I downloaded, compiled and installed the 0.99rc5 version from the homepage, all with no errors. When I try to start vdr as mentioned in the README, the program immediately … [View More]stops without any message. In var/log/messages, I found the following error message: sudo vdr -P"xineliboutput --local=sxfe --video=xv --noremote" Jul 19 20:50:11 arrakis vdr: [9667] VDR version 1.4.1 started Jul 19 20:50:11 arrakis vdr: [9667] Bigpatch 18.06.2006 is active!

Blank screen when switching channels on same transponder with Dpid
by Tomas Berglund 14 Aug '06

14 Aug '06

Hi all. Please help me with my problem. When switching channel between two channels on same transponder with both Apid1 and Dpid1 set the screen goes blank and the sound stops.. I can switch between a channel with only Apid and a channel with Dpid without problems. I have only two channels with dolby and they are on the same transponder so I can't test with another channel.

RFC: Man page intstallation support for plugins?
by Christian Wieninger 13 Aug '06

13 Aug '06

Hi Klaus, the next release of my plugin will have a couple of man pages. I included an 'install-doc' section in the Makefile. But one has to do a 'make install-doc' in the plugins source directory to install them. What do you think about a 'make install-doc-plugins' in VDR's Makefile like that: install-doc-plugins: @for i in `ls $(PLUGINDIR)/src | grep -v '[^a-z0-9]'`; do $(MAKE) -C "$(PLUGINDIR)/src/$$i" install-doc; done BR, Christian

by Peter Marquardt 12 Aug '06

12 Aug '06

Hello list, yesterday I got some interesting effect: I was watching a program on ARD transponder (DVB-S) with a recording scheduled on that transponder but a different channel. When the recording started Audio on the channel i was watching muted and didn ´t come back by switching channels. This is the first time this happened so I wonder if anybody had a similar issue? I´m using vdr 1.4.1-2 (ct-vdr 4.5 with a lot of updates from e-tobi´s repository). I had a look at various log files … [View More]

by Mlists 11 Aug '06

11 Aug '06

Hi there, I picked up a Skystar2 Air2Pc card. I've tried to scan for channels with it (Rogers Cable in Canada) with no success using the dvbapps atscscan tool. I seem to just get alot of timeouts. I'm not sure how to get a scan of available channels from this card. I've tried using a list of freq I found somewhere online: A 525000000 QAM256 A 579000000 QAM256 A 597000000 QAM256 A 657000000 QAM256 A 681000000 QAM256 A 699000000 QAM256 A 771000000 QAM256 A 837000000 QAM256 A 843000000 QAM256 … [View More]

hi, I use a technotrend dvb-c 2.3 premium card with latest firmware 2623 and almost the latest dvb drivers and also one CAM for RTL, SAT1 etc. and one for premiere if I switch to an encrypted channel like premiere - vdr always try to get the key from both CAMs that results in a CAM message like this: "Sie haben keine Berechtigung für diesen Sender" so, I turned the smartcard-messages off (CAM menu) now it seems that it is OK, but sometimes it takes a long time to switch from one premiere-… [View More]
