[PATCH] Small change to correctly query the systems charset
by Matthias Schwarzott 12 Aug '07

12 Aug '07

Hi there! This patch just changes charset querying to not only look at environment variable LANG, but respect all in correct order. So now I can overwrite charset setting with LC_CTYPE and LC_ALL. Greetings Matthias -- Matthias Schwarzott (zzam)

FRQ: VDR core support for online help
by Christian Wieninger 12 Aug '07

12 Aug '07

Hi, today many TV equipment offers online help, even my remote does ;) VDR currently only gives help by manuals or WIKI, but this is far away every time you need it, i.e. if you whatch TV. So I was wondering if it would be interesting to add online help for VDR with the following requirements: - a dedicated key should give help in any situations (-> kHelp) - help may be available per OSD item, or - if not present - per OSD menu (e.g. some setup values could give an extra explanation) -… [View More]

no ci.c QUERY messages???
by Simon Baxter 12 Aug '07

12 Aug '07

Hi I have an Irdeto CAM in a TechnoTrend budget DVB-C card. vdr doesn't seem to even attempt QUERY to decrypt more than one stream in the TS. If I record one stream and try and watch another in the same boquet, I just get "channel not available". This is my channels.conf: Sky 1;T:594000:M64:C:XXXX:529:530:0:606:201:182:2:0 Juice 2;T:594000:M64:C:XXXX:577:578:0:606:204:182:2:0 These are my logs: Jul 22 07:23:51 media1 vdr: [5764] info: Recording started Jul 22 07:24:01 media1 vdr: [5764] … [View More]

Is there any way to simultaneously run 2x MPEG devices at once? Like the output on an FF card, plus a vdr-xine device??

New shutdown procedure not working as expected
by Petri Helin 10 Aug '07

10 Aug '07

Hi, It seems that the new shutdown procedure introduced for versions 1.5.x is (at least for me) not working as expected. The problem is that it does not recognize correctly whether VDR was started manually or not. In fact it thinks every time that it has been started manually. I traced the problem to the SystemExec call in cShutdownHandler::CallShutdownCommand where Setup.NextWakeupTime is updated only if the SystemExec call returns 0. i changed it to accept all values greater or equal … [View More]

audio skips on NFS recording playback
by Simon Baxter 07 Aug '07

07 Aug '07

I have a remote VDR box which holds a bunch of recordings. I attach from the local VDR box via an NFS share. Every 2-5 minutes I get a 1/2 second slip in audio, but no logs are written in /var/logs/messages, kernel messages or on the VDR console. There are also no reported errors on eth0. I don't get these audio slips playing locally recorded files. Can anyone suggest any more detailed logs I can look at? I had suspected when the playback moved between files (001.vdr 002.vdr etc) … [View More]

[ANNOUNCE] Frontend for VDR/mplayer on Nokia 770/800
by Gavin Hamill 06 Aug '07

06 Aug '07

Just some Python I knocked together - don't expect the world. It reads a channel list via SVDRP, shows the list, and launches mplayer with the appropriate arguments. Requires python and mplayer on the Nokia, VDR with streamdev-server and a machine (perhaps the VDR machine) with a CGI-capable webserver (I use thttpd) to transcode from MPEG2 -> low bitrate MPEG4 so the 770 can play it. There's no easy .deb to install - just a tarball, I dunno how to make packages for Maemo yet. Good luck. http://bum.net/vdrview.tar.gz Cheers, Gavin.

[ANNOUNCE] Hard link cutter patch 0.1.4
by Udo Richter 04 Aug '07

04 Aug '07

Hi list, The original hard link cutter patch has received a few bug fixes and an enhancement, so its time to release an updated version. Quick info: The hard link cutter patch changes the recording editing algorithms of VDR to use file system hard links to 'copy' recording files whenever possible to speed up editing recordings noticeably. The new feature of this release is dynamic increase of recording file size before VDR runs out of xxx.vdr files. That way, for example, VDR will use … [View More]

1.4.7 and xineliboutput issues
by mike lewis 03 Aug '07

03 Aug '07

Hi Team. Just would like to start this post with a big thankyou to everyone who contributes to VDR. It's a great piece of software and I have really enjoyed toying with it over the past 6 months or so. I've recently started using xinelibout plugin. I have a vanilla vdr 1.4.7 apprat from the xinelibout plugin. I've recently found that sometimes when watching a stream that is currently recording, not sure why (could be load, disk speed etc) I will see some on-screen stutering. The scenario … [View More]
