Linking a dreambox to VDR using steamdev server
by Rob Davis 29 Nov '07

29 Nov '07

I have two sat cables coming into the lounge, both with the same sats. In the wall conduit are three more sat cables going to the neighbours below (we live in an apartment) and there is no way of adding more cables into the conduits. We have a dreambox which works quite well in the lounge and a VDR server with two SkyStar's. Is there any merit in tweaking streamdev to connect to the dreambox and request a stream from it when it can't get it off it's own sat card? I would like to use the … [View More]

by jdobry＠centrum.cz 28 Nov '07

28 Nov '07

Hello I want to describe some minor problem in VDR: Short weekdays can't contain non ASCII-7 chars. Any other char is converted to UTF8 (it is correct) and cropped to 6 bytes (not UTF8 chars, incorrect). But this crop ignote UTF8 extensions. This code make problem in menu.c (crop to 3+3=6 bytes): ----------------------------------- asprintf(&buffer, "%.*s\t%s\t%c%c%c\t%s", 6, *event->GetDateString(), *event->GetTimeString(), t, v, r, event->Title()); Dirty fix only for CS … [View More]

vdr-1.4.7 save settings before pressing poweroff
by Halim Sahin 26 Nov '07

26 Nov '07

Hello, Currently I am using a shutdown script which does the powerof after pressing the power key on the remote. It seems to me that vdr does not save its settings like last channel and last volume before executing the shutdown skript. Is this a known problem? Can I insert a Setup.Save(); before SystemExec(cmd); in vdr.c to solve this?? Thanks Halim

About language choices in subtitle and audio selectors
by Petri Helin 25 Nov '07

25 Nov '07

Hi, I am wondering whether it would be possible to use full names instead of abbreviations for languages in audio and subtitle selectors? I am also wondering how the current solution gets the name/abbreviation for an option in the list, since at least for subtitles there seems to be something wrong. For Finnish subtitles I get the abbreviation "fin" for live TV and recordings made with VDR version >= 1.5.10. Same for Swedish subtitles. But for a program which contains Finnish and … [View More]

dxr3 and 1.5.11 antialiasing
by Jan Willies 23 Nov '07

23 Nov '07

After upgrading from 1.5.2 to 1.5.11 I ran into some problems with my dxr3 card. The first one was solved by setting AntiAlias = 0 in setup.conf. But after that, VDR won't even start: vdr: [3936] ERROR: FreeType: error during FT_Render_Glyph 32, 3 vdr: [3936] ERROR: FreeType: error during FT_Render_Glyph 32, 3 vdr: [3936] ERROR: FreeType: error during FT_Render_Glyph 32, 3 Speicherzugriffsfehler Apparently the AntiAlias fix worked for Luca Olivetti (http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.vdr/… [View More]
