In Germany the PVR150 ist still available in serveral web shops, while the PVR 250 seems to be out of stock everywhere. Both cards work fine. Some revisions of the PVR 150 have also a radio tuner. You could also use a PVRUSB2. The successor is the WinTV HVR-1950, which analogue part operates exactly as the predecessor PVRUSB2. It is tested with pvrinput yet, but I am pretty sure that I could do necessary changes easily.

A new possibility for lower power high performance VDR
by jori.hamalainen＠teliasonera.com 08 Mar '09

08 Mar '09

As most Intel Atom boards do not have more than 1 PCI slot (stupid rule by Intel), I found an way to circumvent that limitation http://www.prweb.com/releases/2009/02/prweb2157454.htm It is a USB-to-3-pci -slots adapter, and based on press release it is Linux compatible. Immediately I started thinking of NVIDIA ION and such adapter for DVB cards. Does anybody have experience on Ars Technologies -adapters on Linux. - Jori

It does not support the current v4l2 mpeg API, so even a PVR150/250/350 would not work. My advise: Sell your HVR 1300 to a Windows user and buy a PVR150 + a Linux-supported DVB-T USB-stick.

Question about SetPlayMode()
by Christian Gmeiner 07 Mar '09

07 Mar '09

Hi all, at the moment I am working to tight up vdr-plugin-dxr3 and found something to verify. Is about cDevice::SetPlayMode with pmExtern_THIS_SHOULD_BE_AVOIDED. If pmExtern_THIS_SHOULD_BE_AVOIDED is used, a device plugin gives the control of its device to e.g. mplayer or xine. In this state it is not possible to call PlayVideo, etc., as the plugin has no control about its device. Can it happen hat vdr or any vdr-plugin calls PlayVideo, etc in this state? -- Christian Gmeiner, B.Sc.

Hi, some x-vdr users reported problems with compiling mplayer and some plug-ins like music too. We solved this by adding DEFINES += -D__KERNEL_STRICT_NAMES to the VDR Makefile and patching the driver header files --- ./linux/include/linux/dvb/video.h.orig 2009-03-03 09:54:58.000000000 +0100 +++ ./linux/include/linux/dvb/video.h 2009-03-03 09:45:30.000000000 +0100 @@ -28,6 +28,7 @@ #ifdef __KERNEL__ #include <linux/compiler.h> #else +#include <linux/compiler.h> #include <stdint.h> #include <time.h> #endif

by Antti Ajanki 07 Mar '09

07 Mar '09

New version of the Webvideo plugin is available at http://users.tkk.fi/~aajanki/vdr/webvideo/ The Webvideo plugin is a tool for browsing and downloading videos from popular video sharing websites, such as YouTube and Google video, using VDR menu interface or a command line client. With the help of xineliboutput plugin the videos can be played directly without downloading them first. Changes since the last version: - Unescape the stream URL before passing it to xineliboutput to make Youtube streaming work. - Youtube: More robust parsing of search results page. Updated categories parsing according to recent changes. - Updated Italian translations (thanks to Diego Pierotto) - Fixed a typo in German translation (thanks to Halim Sahin) -- Antti Ajanki
