[ANNOUNCE]: vdr-span-0.0.7 and vdr-lcr-0.0.9
by Christian Leuschen 15 Aug '08

15 Aug '08

Hi, I uploaded the seventh version of the SpAn(=Spectrum Analyzer)-plugin and the ninth version of the LCR(=Least Cost Routing)-plugin. They can be found at http://lcr.vdr-developer.org/ Changelog LCR: 2008-08-13: Version 0.0.9 - switched to gettext; therefore vdr >= 1.5.7 is required. - added italian language (thanks to Diego Pierotto for the translation). Changelog SpAn: 2008-08-13: Version 0.0.7 - Cleaned up the translation. - switched to gettext; therefore vdr >= 1.5.7 is required.… [View More]

timeout on dvb_ca_en50221_wait_if_status (was: "Possible SMP problems with budget_av/saa7134")
by Matthias Dahl 14 Aug '08

14 Aug '08

Hello all. I've done some more debugging with both the dvb modules and vdr in debug mode. So far my only clue is that sometime during normal operation, the link gets reinitialised (dvb_ca_en50221_link_init) which finally fails with a timeout from dvb_ca_en50221_wait_if_status. After that, everything is dead until I restart vdr. I have attached the debug output. I hope that at least now someone can please point me into the right direction or maybe even has a idea what the problem might … [View More]

OT: Finnish Yle HD olympics channel..
by Pasi Kärkkäinen 14 Aug '08

Hello! I'm not living in an area where Digita transmits this channel via dvb-t, so I was wondering if there are other .fi users who could record/dump some minutes of this channel and upload it somewhere so we others could check the quality etc :) http://www.digita.fi/digita_dokumentti.asp?path=1840;3793;1973;9850;10653 -- Pasi

why can't I use TT3200 to scan high symbolrate and DVB-S2 channels with multiproto?
by LinHai 14 Aug '08

14 Aug '08

I receive 138 KU and I can use TT3200 to scan the following symbolrate: 12302 V 30000(DVB-S) 12401 V 22425(DVB-S) 12430 V 22425(DVB-S) 12490 V 21600(DVB-S) 12537 V 41250(DVB-S) 12646 V 22425(DVB-S) But I can't scan the following symbolrate: 12354 V 43000(DVB-S) 12460 V 21600(DVB-S2) 12598 V 43000(DVB-S) 12720 V 43000(DVB-S) If the symbolrate>=43000 or DVB-S2，the TT3200 can’t scan them? I make and make install the recently multiproto. My VDR：VDR1.7.0+H.264+xinelibputout+multiproto.… [View More]

VDR 1.7 - DVB Linux API problem
by David Hláčik 13 Aug '08

13 Aug '08

Hello guys, I have Fedora 9 with lastest kernel. I have Skystar 2 DVB PCI card rev 2.8. As this revision is using FlexCopII DVB i needed to recompile v4l dvb modules. I have downloaded lastest v4l using mercurial. Now my Skystar 2 works fine with Fedora 9 . I am using Kaffeine , which works fine. My problem is : I am trying to compile vdr-1.7.0 from source, when i will do "make" i will get this error : [root@home vdr-1.7.0]# make In file included from audio.c:12: dvbdevice.h:19:2: error: #… [View More]

Possible SMP problems with budget_av/saa7134
by Matthias Dahl 12 Aug '08

12 Aug '08

Hello all. I am resending the following message because I didn't get any response so far and in addition I am putting it on cc' to the vdr devel list. I'd look into this issue myself, yet I don't have the necessary time to dive into the DVB tree. So please, if anyone knows how to debug this or has any hint where the problem could be located... I'd be more than grateful to hear about it. By the way, just today after a few minutes of uptime with vdr 1.7.0, I got those (increased the CAM … [View More]check interval to 5 seconds btw): vdr: [3280] ERROR: can't write to CI adapter on device 0: Input/output error vdr: [3280] ERROR: can't write to CI adapter on device 0: Invalid argument And the CAM stopped working until I restarted vdr. In one forum post someone reported about similar problems with MythTV, so it's becoming more and more likely that this is indeed a problem within the dvb tree. And if it's a SMP problem, it should get fixed because multicore systems will be everywhere pretty soon. Thanks again. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello all. After minutes or hours or days of running vdr 1.4.7, I get the following messages in my syslog: dvb_ca adapter 0: CAM tried to send a buffer larger than the ecount size! dvb_ca adapter 0: DVB CAM link initialisation failed :( When running vdr 1.6.x, the problems are even more frequent/worse and I get those: dvb_ca adapter 0: CAM tried to send a buffer larger than the link buffer size (192 > 128)! vdr: [3140] ERROR: can't write to CI adapter on device 0: Input/output error dvb_ca adapter 0: CAM tried to send a buffer larger than the ecount size! dvb_ca adapter 0: DVB CAM link initialisation failed :( The result is always the same, the CAM stops decrypting and I have to restart vdr. After a lot of searching around, I've learnt that I am not the only one with those problems and they seem to be related to multi core systems. I read that pining vdr down to one CPU core might help... and indeed it did. This cannot be a hardware related issue because... 1) meanwhile I switched from a NForce 590 SLI to a X48 chipset and thus also from an AMD64 X2 5600+ (Winchester) to an Intel Core2Duo E8400 (Wolfdale) 2) I swapped my KNC One DVB-C Plus for a new one And the problems persist. I've already written a report to the vdr list which was unfortunately ignored and besides it looks more like a dvb issue itself. I was unable to test the kernel with nosmp or similar (which was reported by others to work just fine) because I need this machine to work on. I've attached detailed informations about my system and I'd be more than happy to help fix this once and for all, so one can savely rely on vdr again. Last but not least, I am using a AlphaCrypt Light module with 3.15 firmware. Thanks a lot in advance for every help. Best regards, Matthias Dahl [View Less]

Re: [vdr] Multiproto compile fails again

you must patch the multiproto with fix-jdelvare-i2c-i2c-constify-client-address-data.patch. download the fix-jdelvare-i2c-i2c-constify-client-address-data.patch and copyt to /multiproto/linux then patch it. _________________________________________________________________ MSN 中文网，最新时尚生活资讯，白领聚集门户。 http://cn.msn.com
