[PATCH] HVR4000(lite) support for multiproto
by Holger Steinhaus 27 Jan '08

27 Jan '08

This patch implements support for HVR4000(lite) into the multiproto tree. It is an update of my patch from 2007-12-15. In contrast to the previous one it should conform better to the multiproto API and supports the "set_params" call. For compatibility to non-multiproto-aware applications like vanilla VDR, the old set_frontend calling scheme is still supported if a module param "legacy=1" is passed to the cx24116 module. The patch includes the latest changes from Gregoire and Morfsta. It has been tested successfully with szap (legacy=1), VDR 1.4.7 (legacy=1), szap2 (legacy=0) and VDR 1.5.13 (legacy=0) with Reinhards recent H.264 patches using a 2.6.23.12-i686 kernel. The problems with newer kernels like Craig mentioned may be resolved, but I'm currently not able to test this aspect. Special thanks to Gregoire for digging out some more lost fragments that were of great help. Regards, Holger

vdr with one nexus and one S2 tuning problem

Hello, I achieved to compile the dvbs2 patched vdr1.5.13, but I can't get an image from the S2-3200. The S2-3200 is connected to an 19.2° oriented dish and the nexus to a 13°. On the nexus I have an image, on the S2 a black screen.

[ANNOUNCE] DVB-S2 + H.264 support for VDR-1.5.13
by Reinhard Nissl 26 Jan '08

26 Jan '08

Hi, attached you'll find updated patches for VDR-1.5.13. The patch named *-dvbs2-* additionally adds DVB-S2 support to VDR (thanks to Marco Schlüßler) and requires to use the DVB drivers from the multi-proto tree (see URL below for further details). The other patch is without DVB-S2 support and therefore most suitable for DVB-C users. The patches have been extended to also include the recently released bugfixes, addons, forgotten speedup patches and LIRC changes. Additionally, cDvbTuner::IsTunedTo() and the channel editor have been fixed / enhanced to deal with modulation systems. Have a look at this page for more instructions on this concern: http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/OpenSuSE_DVB-S2_-_Step_by_Step_Instal… Bye. -- Dipl.-Inform.

Any DVB-S2 channels with MPEG2?
by Klaus Schmidinger 26 Jan '08

26 Jan '08

I'm currently adopting the patches that make VDR "DVB-S2 aware". So I was wondering if there are any FTA channels out there that broadcast MPEG2 using DVB-S2, so I could test this with my existing equipment by simply plugging in a DVB-S2 receiver card. Does anybody know of such a channel? Klaus

VDR-1.5.13 DVBS2 Autodetect Addon: Channel Not Available on DVBS2 Channels
by Morfsta 26 Jan '08

26 Jan '08

Hi Reinhard, I have just tried the new DVB-S2 patches for VDR-1.5.13 and the additional addon. Now I cannot tune to a DVB-S2 channel and I get a "Channel Not Available". H264 on DVB-S works fine. I have a HVR4000 and a FF Technotrend. The response still appears when I remove the use of the Technotrend through the use of the -D options to VDR. Regards

Muempf HG repositories
by s.huelswitt＠gmx.de 25 Jan '08

25 Jan '08

Hi, I would like to announce my new HG repositories at <http://hg.muempf.de/> At the moment it hosts my own project only, named: MP3/MPlayer plugin PremiereEPG plugin cdbackup The repos are hosted on a dedicated machine, so there is some space and bandwidth left, so I offer this capacity for free HG hosting of VDR related projects. Please apply by mail, if you want your project to be hosted. Please note that this is a private service and I reserve the right to terminate the service and/or exclude/reject projects from the hosting at any time and for any reason.

Using a local FF card for recording on streamdev client
by Malte Forkel 25 Jan '08

25 Jan '08

Hi, sometimes I would like to use the FF card of my client for recording (to the common video directory shared via NFS). The client seems to automatically prefer its streamdev device though, i.e. it uses one of the server's cards if available. Is there a way to tell vdr to "stay local", preferably without editing channels.conf? Thanks in advance, Malte

Encoding of SVDRP data?
by Jan Ekholm 22 Jan '08

22 Jan '08

Hi, I have an app that retrieves EPG data via SVDRP, but the enconding (or something related) is fubar and characters like åäö (å ä and ö) are all wrong in the data I display. What is the encoding used for the EPG data? I've tried forcing UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1 and whatnot and all I get for those characters is garbage. What should I really be trying to interpret the data as? My VDR system and the desktop where I run my app use en_US.UTF-8 system but I assume the DVB standard specifies something else for the data? If I do a normal telnet connection to the SVDRP port and do some LSTE the data is fine, the special characters stay special. PEBKAC, but where? Best regards, Jan Ekholm -- Sometimes it's better to light a flamethrower than curse the darkness. -- Terry Pratchett, Men at Arms
