Example 1: YLE TV1;YLE:562000000:I0C23D23M64B8T8G8Y0:T:0:512+128:650=fin:2321:0:17:8438:4097:0 and TV1;YLE:274000:C0M128:C:6900:512+128:650=fin:2321:0:17:0:1:0 Example 2: Subtv;SubTV Oy:658000000:I0C23D23M64B8T8G8Y0:T:0:353:609=fin:865:0:97:8438:8193:0 and subtv;Citytv Oy:282000:C0M128:C:6900:353:609=fin:865:0:97:0:2:0 And is there some way possible to prefer cable channels in recordings?

FF card A/V sync suggestion
by C.Y.M 02 Feb '07

02 Feb '07

Since it has been several years now and I have never been able to solve the a/v desync issues with my Nexus-S FF card when playing back recordings, I was thinking about what could be done. As of now, I have been using xine with my FF card to fix the problem. But, if I use xine, then even live tv is played back over software. The problem was never with live tv, only playing back recordings. What if the mplayer plugin was modified to replace the default vdr playback for recordings. It currently works as is, but it has problems with split files (ie; 001.vdr, 002.vdr, etc.). Also, it would be nice if there was an option to replace the default playback in vdr for recordings (so we wouldnt have to select the mplayer plugin first every time). Just a suggestion, but using mplayer over mpegpes would definitely be a better solution for fixing the a/v desync instead of having to use xine for everything (since there never was a problem with live tv). Best Regards.

FF card AV sync problems, possible fix to VDR
by Ville Rannikko 01 Feb '07

01 Feb '07

Hi! The newest firmware for FF cards did not completely fix the AV desync problems for me. According to information from Werner the problem happens when small video frames fill the decoder buffer with over 2 seconds of data. So I made this patch for dvbplayer.c to stop it from uploading more PES frames to decoder when STC/PTS difference is more than 2 seconds. This seems to fix the remaining problems for me, but I have not tested it much. The PTS/STC-code has been mostly taken from the dvb-subtitles plugin. Comments, please Ville --- dvbplayer.c.orig 2007-01-31 18:21:42.000000000 +0200 +++ dvbplayer.c 2007-01-31 18:35:36.000000000 +0200 @@ -495,6 +495,51 @@ } } if (p) { + if(playMode == pmPlay && pc > 13) + { + int64_t stc = -1; + int64_t pts = -1; + + if ( p[0] == 0x00 && p[1] == 0x00 && p[2] == 0x01) + { + if(p[7] & 0x80) + { + switch( p[3] ) + { + case 0xE0 ... 0xEF: // video + case 0xC0 ... 0xDF: // audio + pts = (int64_t) (p[ 9] & 0x0E) << 29 ; + pts |= (int64_t) p[ 10] << 22 ; + pts |= (int64_t) (p[ 11] & 0xFE) << 14 ; + pts |= (int64_t) p[ 12] << 7 ; + pts |= (int64_t) (p[ 13] & 0xFE) >> 1 ; + } + } + } + if(pts != -1) + { + cDevice *pd = cDevice::PrimaryDevice(); + if(pd) + { + stc = pd->GetSTC(); + if(stc != 0) + { + if(pts & (int64_t)1<<32) + { + stc |= (int64_t)1<<32; + } + int64_t timeDiff = (pts-stc); + if (pts<stc) + { + timeDiff += (int64_t)1<<33; + } + timeDiff /= 90; + if(timeDiff > 2000) + cCondWait::SleepMs(timeDiff - 2000); + } + } + } + } int w = PlayPes(p, pc, playMode != pmPlay); if (w > 0) { p += w;
