dvb-c & CI, but no picture?
by Simon Baxter 05 Jun '07

05 Jun '07

Hi I've recently got my TT-1500C, CI and Irdeto CAM working. My cable provider only provides encrypted channels, so can't do any testing free-to-air channels. Here's my modprobe in dmesg: saa7146: register extension 'budget_ci dvb'. ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [PIN3] enabled at IRQ 15 PCI: setting IRQ 15 as level-triggered ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:10.0[A] -> Link [PIN3] -> GSI 15 (level, low) -> IRQ 15 saa7146: found saa7146 @ mem d09e2e00 (revision 1, irq 15) (0x13c2,0x1010). saa7146 (0): dma buffer size 192512 DVB: registering new adapter (TT-Budget-C-CI PCI). adapter has MAC addr = 00:d0:5c:67:bf:11 input: Budget-CI dvb ir receiver saa7146 (0) as /class/input/input5 budget_ci: CI interface initialised DVB: registering frontend 0 (ST STV0297 DVB-C)...

vdr and 28.2E EPG ?
by kafifi 04 Jun '07

04 Jun '07

Hi all, I've just tuned my second dish on 28.2E, viewing many FTA channels. Curiously, vdr doesn't display any EPG (just now & next information). Is there any special transponder I must tune to download EPG, or SKY uses a non standard EPG ? In this case, could you give me a link ? Thanks.

Copy your recordings to /video and then start VDR in an X11-session like this: vdr -v /video -P"xineliboutput --local=sxfe --remote=none --fullscreen" I use this versions: vdr-1.4.7 xineliboutput-1.0.0rc1 Stephan. -- loescher(a)gmx.de http://www.loescher-online.de/ Try LEO: http://www.leo.org/

vdr without a DVB receiver
by Josce Unknown 04 Jun '07

04 Jun '07

Using vdr 1.4.7 is it possible to use vdr only for playing back recordings, with xinelibout but without a DVB receiver. Now if I start vdr I get: vdr: no primary device found - using first device! and then it exits The reason is that we will be going on a trip and my daughter would like to have her recordings with her so that she can watch them. And she knows how to operate the vdr so it would be easier than using mplayer or xine. So I thought I it woud be great if I could just copy the recordings from /video to my laptop /video and let her watch it from my laptop.

Serious bug? VDR v1.4.4 deletes recordings
by Pasi Juppo 04 Jun '07

04 Jun '07

Hi, For some reason VDR has decided to remove recordings. I've been suspecting this for some time but now I'm sure. I've been recording Tomi Traktori (a serie for kids) and there used to way more recordings that single page. Now only single page and all recordings in 2007 have been deleted. There is no indication in log files that VDR had removed these recordings (although I'm not 100% whether there was log entry because logs data back only to 13th of May). What could be the reason for this and how to prevent this? There have been over 40h of free space on the disk so that is not the reason. Br, Pasi

Sky Freesat and VDR
by Alasdair Campbell 04 Jun '07

04 Jun '07

As I've just been told that the scaffolding currently surrounding the communal aerial in my neighbourhood will be up for months, I'm looking at purchasing a DVB-S card. The terrestrial analogue reception is just terrible, so much that my dvb-t cards keep choking and dying. As I'm in the UK, and have a shared satellite dish I've been interested in using the Sky Freesat service. I've read on avforums that people have managed to get their freesat and even paytv cards working with TT T3200S cards + CI card + CAM. Unfortunately they're all using Windows MCE and the information is heavily windows specific. As I've no interest in HDTV (or windows), I was hoping to go for a cheaper card. Does anyone using VDR in the UK currently have this setup working? Would you care to mention the hardware you have? I'd only be looking for the full freesat channel line-up, specifically all the freeview channels I currently can't see! :-) I won't be subscribing to Sky Tv. One major issue is I don't have an extra coax cable heading to my vdr server. I was planning on installing the dvb-s card in my client and using another vdr server working in conjunction with the 'master'. Installing another cable will mean digging up 25m of earth and shifting some paving slabs :-/ Principally I'd like the whole setup to seem transparent in that I can record from the 2 dvb-t cards or the dvb-s card using the same epg, and shared recordings folders etc. Is this feasible? This is secondary to just getting a proper digital tv service working in our living room. -- A l a s d a i r C a m p b e l l r a g a w u @ g m a i l . c o m
