Help building xine-lib-1.2 --with-external-ffmpeg
by Todd Luliak 12 Sep '08

I've been running around in circles trying to get xine-lib-1.2 built with external ffmpeg. I currently use 1.2 with CoreAVC and would like to explore the h.264 improvements in ffmpeg trunk. I am suspecting my ffmpeg configuration/build/installation, but don't know what's wrong.

I'm stumped. Same here. I did come around how to fix the 'bits_per_sample' message (it had to do with a change in ffmpeg after a certain revision). However, I'm not able to resolve the implicit declaration of function 'avcodec_decode_audio' error. But to be honest, I was a bit fedup last night. So if anybody can help me (or us ;) with this, that would be great. I was thinking of send this message to the xine mailinglist, but perhaps some VDR users know how to fix this. > -Todd > Niels Wagenaar

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 refresh, but I am still in menu mode. Next, why like audio aren't there an entry in main menu for showing current subtitle tracks ? The only way to know that is to use keymacro with Subtiles key, but that could be hard to map it with remote with few keys. Finally I have the impression that the subtitles synchronisation isn't good. Thanks, Matthieu

Problem with some HD-channels.
by Per Mellander 09 Sep '08

09 Sep '08

I was running vdr-1.5.12 for quite som time, patched and with multiprotodrivers + CoreAVC I was able to watch HD channels on Thor 1.0W. The thing was that when I tried to watch: SVT HD;Telenor:11421:hC34M5S1Z35:S1.0W:25000:10512+512:640=sve;641=sve:0:B00:3801:70:14:0 I had problem with stuttering video and glitches in sound. The sound glitches came every second and the video was a little bit more stochastic in it's behaviour. I really wanted to be able to watch this channel because it's one of the 'official' swedish channels ( i.e Government owned ). I thought it was because of lack of CPU-power, so I bought an eHD and installed vdr 1.7.0. Everything was smooth as silk and I could watch almost all HD-channels without any problem. No more underpowered CPU glitches or crashes. Except for the SVT-channel that still had the problems noted above. :( So my question is, can anyone please tell me what special kind of stream that SVT is using and what I can do with my installation to be able to watch it? It's not FTA, but maybe someone could figure it out anyway. I can upload a short recording if anybody want to take a look. Sincerely, Per

VDR Development
by Morfsta 09 Sep '08

09 Sep '08

Hi, Does anyone know what is happening with VDR development these days? There doesn't seem to be much activity - is Klaus taking a long holiday or very busy with work!? :-) Please don't flame me for asking - I totally understand and appreciate that Klaus does it in his spare time etc and we have no right to demand development, but just that Klaus isn't here much these days and there has not been any new version of VDR 1.7.x for quite some time now. I presume other people must be wondering too what is going on with the future development of VDR and whether there is any planned? Hope everything is okay with Klaus too and he hasn't "disappeared" for some reason... Kind Regards, Morfsta
