Hi, a new version of the Mailbox plugin is available at <http://sites.inka.de/~seca/vdr/> Download link: <http://sites.inka.de/~seca/vdr/download/vdr-mailbox-0.5.0.tgz> Changes since version 0.4.0: 2007-10-21: Version 0.5.0 - Added support for the new i18n system of vdr >= 1.5.7 - Check the used charset with cCharSetConv::SystemCharacterTable() when using vdr >= 1.5.3 - Added French language texts (thanks to Patrice Staudt) - Added call to cStatus::MsgOsdTextItem to make the message body visible with graphlcd/graphtft. - Added call cStatus::MsgOsdTextItem() whenn scolling up/down in mail-view. - Added workaround for imap-servers not reporting attribute "charset=.." in "Content-Type:" lines. If charset is missing ISO-8859-1 is used. Have fun, Alex

Transcoding video on-the-fly ?
by jussi salmi 20 Oct '07

20 Oct '07

Hi gurus I'm newbie with VDR (version 1.5.10/1.5.10) and I have a few question about it. I need to record one channel 24/7/364 and I would like to record and transcode on-the-file videos using one-file-per-show basis. Because the channel is scrambled I need vdr to handle the CONAX in this case. So my idea is that writing a perl script, it would be able to 1. read the epg-data 2. make a recording list 3. start recording at the time show will start 4. hand over the video for transcoding by mencoder or ffmpeg (for exsample: vdr | ffmpeg -i - -b 500 -vcodec xvid MULHOLLAND_DRIVE.m4v) So, is't possible to use any transcoding program by vdr ? Please, any help would be higly appriciate -Jussi

VDR 1.5.10 and vdr-xine 0.7.12
by Tony Grant 20 Oct '07

20 Oct '07

Hi, I thought I would try this First a question asked on the Forum that did not get a reply: - PCM volume is being turned down to 0 which is very annoying Where do I change these settings? SetDigitalAudioDevice: 0 SetAudioChannelDevice: 0 The new versions of VDR and xine plugin: - xine CPU usage is up 10% from 35% to 45% on my Epia M10000. I am using xine-lib 1.1.8 and the CVS version of xine-ui (I could not log into CVS this morning to get xine-lib) - when it works it seem very fluid and zapping seems faster - any attempt at using the xine configuration dialog results in a lock up - vdradmin 3.6.0 am has problems staying connected to VDR This is what I saw in about 15 minutes of use. Cheers Tony --

The patch appears to help sync in the sound a lot better than before thank you very much. It's greatly appreciated. _____________________________________________________________ Click here to find great deals on vending machines. http://thirdpartyoffers.netzero.net/TGL2211/fc/Ioyw6ijnXPBXxCHcLeL2T9o5RWKZ…

It happens a little bit in vdr-1.5.9 but not nearly as much as in vdr-1.5.10. Vdr-1.5.10 the problem is quite a bit worse on dolby digital channels.

recordings & channel info
by Torgeir Veimo 19 Oct '07

19 Oct '07

The recording info doesn't seem to convey which channel a recording is from. Is it possible to turn this on somehow? I can't find any menu item that seems to be related to this. I'm using vdr 1.5.5 and dvb-t in the uk. -- Torgeir Veimo torgeir(a)pobox.com

vdr-1.5.10-Sync'ing problems
by kirkh21＠netzero.net 19 Oct '07

19 Oct '07

I am running vdr-1.5.10 and when I tune into a channel that uses dolby digital it takes forever to sync into the channel and the sound continues to fade in and out. Channels that do not use dolby digital are ok and sync in as normal. _____________________________________________________________ Need All Day Energy?

vdr 1.5.10 SUSE rpm packages available
by Ludwig Nussel 19 Oct '07

19 Oct '07

Hi, I finally managed to update the vdr15 package to version 1.5.10. The RPMs can be downloaded from [1] once the build process is finished. I've also updated vdr-xine in vdr-plugins to 0.7.12, you'll need to manually rebuild the package against xine-lib from factory though since xine is currently missing from the build service. cu Ludwig [1] http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/vdr/ -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.de/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg)

[ANNOUNCE] vdr-iptv-0.0.1
by Antti Seppälä 19 Oct '07

19 Oct '07

Hello Rolf Ahrenberg and myself are pleased to announce the first release of joint effort plugin which turns VDR into a full-blown IPTV receiver. IPTV plugin implements an additional VDR device which provides all the functionalities of DVB cards such as live viewing, recording, epg etc. The plugin is capable of receiving MPEG transport streams via various network protocols, such as UDP/RTP multicast and HTTP. Also file input is supported. The plugin is tested with streamdev-server, VLC and IPTV stream provided by a local internet service provider. Minimum required VDR version is 1.5.10. The plugin also includes a patch to VDR core to allow plugin specific channels to be added to channels.conf. The patch is designed to be as generic as possible to be beneficial for other projects as well, for example analog and pvrinput plugins. We are also hoping to see the patch integrated into the core VDR later on. More details and the plugin package can be found from the plugin homepage: http://www.saunalahti.fi/~rahrenbe/vdr/iptv -- Antti Seppälä

For organize your channels.conf you can use a channel-editor programm. http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Channeleditoren Or you use the good autosort plugin, but the configuration is tricky http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Autosort-plugin But, when you *need* the prefered channels in your MainMenu, your can create a command menu item with menuorg like this: <command name="MyChannel" execute="svdrpsend -d 127.0.0.1 chan 123"/> But i think, this is not what you mean?!
