dvbsubtitle issue
by Stefan Lucke 19 Jan '08

19 Jan '08

Hi, can someone with a full featured card test the short recording mentioned here: http://lists.berlios.de/pipermail/softdevice-devel/2008q1/003004.html When playing this with softdevice, consecutive subtitle areas are not erased. Between these trace messages there is no deletion of previous OSD area. So if the following area is of smaller size, parts of previous area remain on screen (in softdevice). END_OF_DISPLAY_SET_SEGMENT PAGE_COMPOSITION_SEGMENT The dvbsubtitle trace looks like: FramesPerSec: 25 Create SubtitlePage 1 (total pages = 1) PAGE_COMPOSITION_SEGMENT page refresh Update page id 1 version 15 pts 3614043382 timeout 2 state 1 PAGE_COMPOSITION_SEGMENT new Page Update page id 1 version 0 pts 3614216502 timeout 6 state 2 REGION_COMPOSITION_SEGMENT Region pageId 1 id 0 version 11 fill 1 width 510 height 44 level 4 depth 4 clutId 1 FillRegion 0 REGION_COMPOSITION_SEGMENT Region pageId 1 id 1 version 12 fill 1 width 224 height 44 level 4 depth 4 clutId 1 FillRegion 0 CLUT_DEFINITION_SEGMENT OBJECT_DATA_SEGMENT OBJECT_DATA_SEGMENT END_OF_DISPLAY_SET_SEGMENT PAGE_COMPOSITION_SEGMENT page refresh Update page id 1 version 1 pts 3614518658 timeout 2 state 1 PAGE_COMPOSITION_SEGMENT new Page Update page id 1 version 2 pts 3614576328 timeout 6 state 2 REGION_COMPOSITION_SEGMENT Region pageId 1 id 0 version 13 fill 1 width 330 height 44 level 4 depth 4 clutId 1 FillRegion 0 REGION_COMPOSITION_SEGMENT Region pageId 1 id 1 version 14 fill 1 width 264 height 42 level 4 depth 4 clutId 1 FillRegion 0 CLUT_DEFINITION_SEGMENT OBJECT_DATA_SEGMENT OBJECT_DATA_SEGMENT END_OF_DISPLAY_SET_SEGMENT PAGE_COMPOSITION_SEGMENT page refresh Update page id 1 version 3 pts 3614885762 timeout 2 state 1 PAGE_COMPOSITION_SEGMENT new Page Update page id 1 version 4 pts 3614926520 timeout 6 state 2 REGION_COMPOSITION_SEGMENT Region pageId 1 id 0 version 15 fill 1 width 362 height 44 level 4 depth 4 clutId 1 FillRegion 0 REGION_COMPOSITION_SEGMENT Region pageId 1 id 1 version 0 fill 1 width 322 height 44 level 4 depth 4 clutId 1 FillRegion 0 CLUT_DEFINITION_SEGMENT OBJECT_DATA_SEGMENT OBJECT_DATA_SEGMENT END_OF_DISPLAY_SET_SEGMENT PAGE_COMPOSITION_SEGMENT -- Stefan Lucke

Locale commandline option. Patch not accepted?
by s.huelswitt＠gmx.de 19 Jan '08

19 Jan '08

Hi, some time ago I suggested to have a commandline option to specifiy the location of the locale files at runtime. It hasn't appeared in VDR source since then. Has the patch been rejected? Regards. PS: I attached the patch again, in case it got lost somewehere ;) -- Stefan Huelswitt s.huelswitt(a)gmx.de | http://www.muempf.de/

H.264 VPID's
by ShorTie 16 Jan '08

16 Jan '08

Been playing with this genpix, hd and xine. Pretty much got everything running except for 1 thing seems to be hiding from me. For vdr to be able to tune to a hd channel I need to add 10000 to the vpid’s which I do in my nscan/convert/pad10 no biggie. The problem is that when I tune away from a hd channel vdr rights back to the channels.conf with the normal vpid not the vpid+10000 like I had. Thus I can’t tune back to that channel till i manually change the channels.conf back again. I’m I missing a setting somewhere? Thankz ShorTie No virus found in this outgoing message.

OT: Pseudo-real-time h264 transcoding of mpeg2 vdr recordings
by Magnus Hörlin 16 Jan '08

16 Jan '08

I'm sorry for bothering you with a question that should possibly have been sent to the mplayer mailing list. Next week I'm going to Tenerife to relax by the pool, but I don't want to miss any biathlon, alpine- or cross-country skiing transmissions, because then I can't relax.... Therefore I have made a script that scans my video dir for new recordings and starts encoding them to h264/AAC right away to a bitrate of around 800kbps, which is what I can send from my server. Since I will have internet access in my hotel room, I'm hoping to sit on the balcony with my laptop and play the recordings using mplayer or xine while downloading them. One problem is that my vdr server is too slow to do it in real time and my vdr client is too fast (AMD BE-2400), so when mencoder "catches up" with real-time it exits instead of continuing until the vdr file is closed. And the same goes for wget which I planned to use for downloading the files. I guess there are many very simple ways to do this so I hope you don't mind my wasting your time by asking here. The obvious way would be to let vdr start encoding when the recording ends, but I don't want to wait for that. There must be a better way. /Magnus H

can't swich from horizintal to vertical polarisation
by Tony Grant 16 Jan '08

16 Jan '08

OK so I fixed all my issues with my clean install of vdr and vdr-xine in Fedora Core 8 except one: - switching from horizontal to vertical polarization does not work, screen goes black, xine stops responding - I can record vertical polarized channels and play back the recording so this doesn't seem to be a driver/hardware issue Fedora Core 8 up to date xine-lib 1.2 pulled from mercurial on the 14th January xine-ui from CVS same day VDR 1.5.13 vdr-xine 0.8.1 DVB drivers from FC8 (after trying older ones with same result) Skystar2 in hush VIA Epia M10000 So the problem lies with switching channels on live TV. Any ideas where to go now greatly welcomed! Tony --

BUG: DVB-T and DVB-S[2] do not work with VDR & multiproto [Was: Two VDR's on one machine]
by Morfsta 15 Jan '08

15 Jan '08

This problem keeps coming up over again, but for some reason Reinhard and Manu don't seem to want to talk about it. I do not understand why you can't use DVB-T with DVB-S2 using the multiproto drivers and VDR, but I doubt it can be much of a problem. I started modifying VDR to use the old API calls for DVB-T whilst using the new calls for DVB-S and S2 and I managed to get VDR to tune to the current DVB-T frequency and show the picture, but it would not tune to new frequencies. :-( I too was considering using 2 VDRs on a single system using the -D options but it's very messy. It would be great if someone could look into this for us!

vdr + h264
by Stefan Lucke 15 Jan '08

15 Jan '08

Hi, is it correct that h264 is written as PES via PlayVideo() ? For decoding with ffmpeg it would be useful to have a PROGRAM_STREAM_MAP in front of a new video stream. -- Stefan Lucke
