VDR & Multiple frontends
by Eddi 25 Jul '15

25 Jul '15

Hi, I wrote a patch to Steve Toth hvr3000 repository, so my FlyDVB Trio can use multiple frontend. So I get: /dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0 /dev/dvb/adapter0/demux1 /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr1 /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0 /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend1 /dev/dvb/adapter0/net0 /dev/dvb/adapter0/net1 The bus of the two frontend is shared, isn't possible to get access to both frontend simultaneously, so I get an -EBUSY error by trying accessing frontend1 if frontend0 is … [View More]

portability or VDR on FreeBSD
by Joerg Pulz 10 Jul '10

10 Jul '10

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello list. As the subject already says, this is about VDR portability, or how to get VDR up and running on a FreeBSD system. In times where we have such really nice plugins like softdevice and streamdev, we no longer need real MPEG2 or DVB hardware in a VDR system. As i want to use my FreeBSD systems to watch TV or play VDR recordings i decided to give porting VDR to FreeBSD a try. Attached you can find the results. In short terms: It simply … [View More]

EPG for Hotbird / russian programmes
by Harald Milz 23 Dec '08

23 Dec '08

Hi, now that my VDR works fine with 2 satellites thanks to the help of some kind folks here and the SourceCaps patch (did I mention it should be in the mainstream VDR?) I have now a couple of FTA programmes in russian language for my better half :-) The only problem is, none of these programmes carry any EPG information. The schedules are available on the web sites, mostly. Has somebody written a plugin that retrieves the schedules and creates proper EPG data from them? I might but not too … [View More]

vdr on PS3
by Clemens Kirchgatterer 20 Sep '08

20 Sep '08

i can see many of us are seeking for the right hardware for vdr, so i am. i want to start some discussion about the upcoming Sony PS3 as an vdr client on steroids. as it will support linux out of the box, it seams logical to, at least, think about it. i came to the following pro/contra list: pro: it supports HD (and Blue-Ray), is small and living room ready, comes with linux, has powerful CPU, you get a gameconsole for free ;-) contra: gets hot, likly DRM locked in some regards, it's a sony … [View More]

vdr-1.5.18 subtitles issue
by matthieu castet 10 Sep '08

10 Sep '08

Hi, I tried subtitle features and I saw some problems (I am using vdr-1.5.18 with softdevice and streamdev). First auto channel update is need : there no way to save subtitle pid in channel.conf. I haven't info about this on the manual and it takes me some time how to make it works. Next osd behaviour is weird : as soon as subtitle is started, when it will refresh it will mess up with other osd. For example if I start subtitle and then go to the menu, the menu will be clear by subtitle … [View More]

BBC EPG from sat ? (loadepg equivalent ?)
by Gregoire Favre 01 May '08

01 May '08

Hello, even if my english is quiete limited, I really enjoy the program from the BBC (S13.0E/S19.2E/S28.2E) which are FTA :-) The only thing I miss is an epg of more than current and next. Is it a limitation of VDR (I mean does it work for other receiver) or are the BBC only broadcasting current and next epg ? I have internet access on my computer, maybe it could be a way to go, but I would find much cleaner from the sat. I wanted to try something like loadepg, but version 0.1.12 fails … [View More]

by Klaus Schmidinger 21 Apr '08

21 Apr '08

I'm looking for a method to convert a JPEG image to an MPEG-2 I-frame that can be displayed through VDR's cDevice::StillPicture() function. The conversion should be done by a (sequence of) shell command(s). Can anybody advise how this can be done? Klaus
