Since there's no S2API patch for VDR 1.7.x, you can still use multiproto with these versions. It works (I use a Hauppauge WinTV NOVA-HD-S2 myself using the liplianindvb repo) beautifully on my configuration. And I watch HDTV/DVB-S2 channels using the eHD without any problems. My current VDR uptime is now 13 days with this configuration. Before that it was 35 days, but I had to shutdown my HTPC so that I could move my audio/video furniture to a different location :/ > Josce Regards, Niels Wagenaar

reelbox plugin - help compiling
by Josce 19 Sep '08

19 Sep '08

I have now been working far too long on installing the eHD card. Without this: http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/OpenSUSE_VDR_DVB-S2_-_Teil2.1:_eHD I would have given up long ago ... My system: Fedora 9 latest updates and kernel 2.6.26.3-29.fc9.i686 vdr 1.6.0 with the h.264 vdr-1.5.18-h264-syncearly-framespersec-audioindexer-fielddetection-speedup.diff Reelbox svn from today Everything up to now installed exactly like in the http link above. Now my last hurdle - I hope - is to get the reelbox plugin compiled. It now stops with this error: In file included from HdTrueColorOsd.c:34: fontsml-iso8859-15.c:1: error: 'tPixelData' in class 'cFont' does not name a type HdTrueColorOsd.c: In member function 'int Reel::HdTrueColorOsd::CacheFont(const cFont&)': HdTrueColorOsd.c:147: error: 'FontSml_iso8859_15' was not declared in this scope HdTrueColorOsd.c:182: error: 'NUMCHARS' is not a member of 'cFont' HdTrueColorOsd.c:208: error: 'tCharData' is not a member of 'cFont' HdTrueColorOsd.c:208: error: 'charData' was not declared in this scope HdTrueColorOsd.c:209: error: 'NUMCHARS' is not a member of 'cFont' What is wrong here?

Problem with v1.6.0 and two DBS-S cards
by Stefan-W. Hahn 17 Sep '08

17 Sep '08

Hello, yesterday I switched my VDR from v1.4.1 to v1.6.0 on a debian system. I'm running two DVB-S cards (Nexus FF and Nova). The update was without any problem. But today I found a problem: When recording on one program I can view at the same time just the channels of the same bouquet but no other ones (two cards!!). But recording simultaniously on two different bouquets works. With v1.4.1 there was no problem in recording one channel and switching to all other channels. I didn't find any hint on the mailinglist or vdr-portal about this problem. Is there any other having the same problem? Are there any hints how to solve this problem? Stefan -- Stefan-W. Hahn It is easy to make things. / mailto:stefan.hahn@s-hahn.de / It is hard to make things simple.

Re: [vdr] Getting old dvb_ttpci running with new driver and VDR1.7.1

Not with an old TT card and VDR 1.7.1, but I had the same kind of problem with a Skystar2 (SS2) Rev 2.6 in combination with VDR 1.7.0 a couple of days back. I used Igor's repo as well and I only compiled VDR against the liplianindvb with the compiler.h in place (no compiling of liplianindvb at all, I thought it wasn't needed since the card was allready detected). And I encountered the same problem, no locking with VDR 1.7.0 and a SS2. In the user.log I found an error message with the text "No DVB devices found" (or something like this). I resolved it by compiling liplianindvb and do a make install (I rebooted to be sure). And voila! The SS2 worked without problems and could lock to several transponders on different sats. So in short, compilation and installation of multiproto is mandatory for VDR 1.7.0. Perhaps this will also fix your problem with VDR 1.7.1. > Bye, > Matthias Regards, Niels Wagenaar

vdr 1.6.0 device selection order for recordings
by Malte Forkel 16 Sep '08

16 Sep '08

Hello, I just upgraded from vdr 1.4.7 to vdr 1.6.0 (from the e-tobi.net experimental repository). That has changed the order in which devices are selected for recording significantly. Now, the only card with the CAM is selected first when recording non-encrypted channels, preventing later timers from recording encrypted channels. This is my hardware setup: DVB1: full-featured card (Hauppauge WinTV DVB-C rev 2.X) DVB2: budget card with CI and CAM (TerraTec Cinergy 1200 DVB-C) DVB3: budget card (TerraTec Cinergy 1200 DVB-C) As a test, I started tree recordings on non-encrypted channels, one after the other. With vdr 1.4.7, these recordings use DVB3, DVB1, and DVB2, sparing the card with the CAM as long as possible. With vdr 1.6.0, the recordings use DVB2 (!), DVB3, and DVB1, but using the the card with the CAM first. So one recording of a non-encrypted channels blocks all encrypted channels. I'm running a pretty standard Debian etch system with kernel 2.6.18-6-686. The root of the vdr 1.6.0 system started as a mere copy of the vdr 1.4.7 system's root, so there shouldn't be too many differences. Is it a problem with my setup or a problem in vdr 1.6.0? What should I do have vdr 'save the CAM for last'? Thanks in advance, Malte

vdr-plugin-mplayer and VCDs
by Josef Wolf 16 Sep '08

16 Sep '08

Hello, I have installed the vdr-plugin-mplayer. Now I have a VCD which don't play at all when started from this plugin. When I start mplayer manually, it plays fine when I use "vcd://2" as file name. Unfortunately, the plugin uses "vcd://". This leads me to two questions: - Is there some sort of "standard" how VCDs should be structured? I guess "vcd://" is synonym for "vcd://1"? - Is there some way to automatically determine which title needs to be played?

Is it a Nova SE with s5h1420 Frontend? check with dmesg if both cards are initialized There is a bug in the driver which was fixed a few days ago (still not in the man v4l-dvb hg): http://linuxtv.org/hg/~pb/v4l-dvb/rev/cd7eae82baf9 http://linuxtv.org/hg/~pb/v4l-dvb/rev/84530ecadf89

[ANNOUNCE] runvdr extreme 0.4
by Udo Richter 14 Sep '08

14 Sep '08

Hi list, I've updated the runvdr extreme script to version 0.4. The main new feature is the ability to launch an X server together with VDR, for use with xine or xineliboutput. An installed login manager like gdm/kdm/wdm/xdm wont be used, and can be used for a desktop login on a different runlevel. Its also possible to set a different xorg.conf for runvdr, so you can use different settings for desktop and TV out. Also new: Support for plugins managed by the setup-plugin, and parameters to control the behavior of automatic restarts of VDR. Get it at: http://www.udo-richter.de/vdr/scripts.en.html#runvdr-extreme http://www.udo-richter.de/vdr/scripts.html#runvdr-extreme Cheers, Udo
