GCC 4.1.1 and glibc 2.4 nptlonly with vdr 1.4.x + subtitles plugin for extra
by Jukka Palko 08 Sep '06

08 Sep '06

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Anyone had good experiences using this combination? Looks like my vdr system started to have some subtitles plugin issues on Finnish Yle channels after upgrading gcc and glibc. Looks like from time to time on subtitles plugin utilizing recordings I get nasty image breakdown. Not entirely sure that subtitles plugin is the culprit, could be other issues naturally with those new parts. Especially with nptl only system. :) This has though only shown … [View More]

execute command after vdr starts
by C.Y.M 08 Sep '06

08 Sep '06

Is there a command line switch that would allow me to define a command vdr must excute after initial startup? I see one for before and after recordings, but I am looking for a way to execute a command after startup only. Best Regards.

Viaccess Cam Update
by Marco Goebenich 05 Sep '06

05 Sep '06

Hi! I got a problem while receiving TF1 (TPS France). I can tune to this channel, and then view the channels for about 20 seconds, but after that the stream stops, the screen is somehow distorted, if I switch again to TF1 I get the message "No right to watch" and the channel is never shown until I do a CAM reset. My Viaccess CAM has firmware version 1.07, and I tried to update the firmware to 1.08, I tried vdr-1.3.38 and 1.4.2, but after the message "Please do not extract ..." no … [View More]

LCDproc plugin 0.1.0 with VDR 1.4.1-1
by Christian Kruft 05 Sep '06

05 Sep '06

Hey, does anybody have a patch to make the lcdproc 0.1.0 plugin work with VDR 1.4.1-1 ? I've tried one from January but this patch doesn't help. While starting VDR I got this errors: Close Called Not Connected !!! After that, VDR shuts down. LCDproc is working fine, only this plugin won't work. Greetings, Christian

Recording priority question
by Jukka Palko 05 Sep '06

05 Sep '06

I am curious on the recording priorities and especially what is the way vdr decides which card to use to record at a given time. My system is now setup this way: Card #1: Technotrend C2100 rev2.1 Card #2: Hauppauge Nexus-CA Card #3: Technotrend C2100 rev2.1 -card #3 has the CI attached to it and a Conax CAM I have setup the card #3 to be my viewing card. So does vdr select the card which to use for recording by starting from card #1 and then if card #1 is busy, then card #2, etc? And if … [View More]

changes to runvdr for a nexus-s
by C.Y.M 05 Sep '06

05 Sep '06

Here is an example of the changes that I have had to make to runvdr so that my nexus-s works. I have added a maximum retry value to runvdr so that vdr will not keep attempting to start over and over if there is a major problem with reception. Also, I have added a minimum runtime (in seconds) that vdr must have in order to continue attempting to restart after a crash. For example, if vdr crashes within 10 seconds and the minimum runtime required is 45 seconds, then runvdr will consider that … [View More]VDR has major problems and it will not try to keep restarting up to the maximum allowed retries. However, the maximum retry value can be set to "0" which would tell runvdr to attempt a restart unlimited times after crashing.

sourcecaps probelm!
by JikJikMan 05 Sep '06

05 Sep '06

Hi all, I should use sourcecaps in my vdr box and because I didn't find proper patch for vdr 1.4.0, I've used BigPatch instead. But the problem is when I add SourceCaps = ... lines in my setup.conf, and then I restart vdr, it automatically deletes this line and nothing happens. What should I do? Thanks. John.

Have you an old TPS SmartCard or a recent one (Model W or X). vdr and other terminal (with CAM modules) works only with W or X models, whilst the TPS reciever can handle old ones. > Message du 05/09/06 00:13 > De : "Marco Göbenich" <mg(a)vierzehn.com> > A : "VDR Mailing List" <vdr(a)linuxtv.org> > Copie à : > Objet : Re: [vdr] TF1 problem [was: Viaccess Cam Update] > > Hi! > > This would not work while my original TPS receiver has only a slot for … [View More]
