But with VDPAU I have two issues and this is why I haven't upgraded to VDPAU completely as off yet: 1. The maximum usage through VDPAU is in my case an additional 50W (compared to the ExtensionHD with a maximum of 10W) because I've got a PCI-e based videocard; 2. Using plugins like vdr-xine and/or xineliboutput you have buffering time which is annoying for zap speeds on encrypted channels. Currently I use the Reel-VDR fork and it seems to work quite nicely. And it doesn't require many patches to get it working, only some S2API based patches. Regards, Niels Wagenaar

I mean if I press Info and get the current EPG ("Now"), it would be nice a one-key way to see what is "Next" on this same channel. At the moment when you are looking at "Now" and want to see what is "Next" you have to press Exit, then down, then Ok (3 key presses) Since "Left" and "Right" are used for scrolling, perhaps the PrevChannel key could be assigned to switch between "Next" and "Now" On 30.05.2009 18:41, martinez(a)embl.de wrote: > When looking at a given channels EPG ?Now? one click access to ?Next > ? would > be nice.

When looking at a given channels EPG ´Now´ one click access to ´Next ´ would be nice. In Enigma (As a reference) this is implemented with left and right (going f rom now to next and back)

vdr-xine-0.9.2 plugin does not support cutting.
by Carsten Koch 30 May '09

30 May '09

Reinhard, you have done an amazing job with the xine plugin. It works very well and considering xine's complexity, I can appreciate the hard work that must have been required to get both the infrastructure in xine and the plugin itself working as well as it does today. I noticed, however, that it is extremely hard to use VDRs cutting function with it. For example, when I use the '7' and '9' keys to jump to the previous/next cut mark, or when I use the '4' and '6' keys to fine-position a cut mark, the video image is not updated, so I am basically forced to navigate in complete darkness. Is that a known bug? Does it happen only in my setup (TT-budget S2-3200, GeForce 9500GT with VDPAU)? Is there a configuration option I can tweak to fix it? Thanks in advance for any hints, Carsten.

Payment possible via EU SWIFT/IBAN bank wire (or standard bank wire if within Germany). Ciao, hm -- Entropy isn't what it used to be.

[Announce] vdr-fritz 1.2.0
by Joachim Wilke 28 May '09

28 May '09

We have release a new stable version of the Fritz-Plugin. Main improvements since the last stable release are: 2009-05-28: Version 1.2.0 - new setup option "React on calls" allow configuration if the plugin acts on incoming, outgoing or any calls - changed function of kRed in the menu * "Reload phonebooks" was moved to the setup menu * new function "Next phonebook" ("> PB") iterates through the displayable phonebooks (the last one shown is remembered beyond vdr restarts) - new setup option "Show detailed call information" If switched to yes, the plugin opens an own OSD screen for notifications instead of using Skins.Message. This way, more information can be displayed (still to be done). - shortened message displaying an incoming call from an unknown extension (suggested by Habib [27]) - the number of missed calls is now announced via the plugins' main menu entry. Enter the "missed calls" list to reset this counter. - main menu entry is shortened to "Fritz!Box" - modifications in the phone book menu * now grouping phone book entries by name * pressing OK now opens a detail menu. Within this detail menu calls can be triggered with kRed, as in all other detail menus (suggested by apex [28]) - fixed missing SetHelp() in cMenuFonbuchDetail - added support for phone books without number-type (e.g., old Fritz!Boxes) in phone book detail screen (reported by ronnykornexl [30]) - fixed storing the password, which got lost in some cases - changed default password to an empty one - fixed wrong announcement of missed calls before call list retrieval - adapting plugin to new Fritz!Box firmware versions: * auto detecting charset encoding when retrieving phonebook entries * modified interface language detection (currently using a trial-and-error approach, because old approach is no longer supported by newest firmware) - splitted plugin into plugin application and three static libraries * libfritz++ (included all Fritz!Box specific functionality) * libtcpclient++ (providing tcp socket communication) * libpthread++ (providing pthread support, independant of VDRs implementation) With this, it is possible to use these libraries in other projects not related to VDR. - Improvements in libfritz++ * Added resolving of SIP[0-9] to real provider names. * Fixed naming of local phonebook. The recommended name is now localphonebook.csv, the old name localfonbuch.csv is still accepted. The directory remains $vdrconfigdir/plugins/fritzbox/. * Updated OertlichesFonbook to new website layout (fix provided by Matthias [31]) * implemented reverse lookup function for +31 (Netherlands) * cOertlichesFonbuch no longer tries to resolve non german phone numbers * improved detection of unsuccessful logins to the Fritz!Box * made the plugin independent of Fritz!Box's webinterface language (thanks to Gandalf [29] for supporting and testing this) * if no password is set, the plugin no longer tries to login to the Fritz!Box * implemented support for a local phone book (suggested by neptunvasja [6]) ** The fonbook is a csv-file located at $vdrconfigdir/plugins/fritzbox/localfonbuch.csv using the same encoding as VDR ** Each line of this file has the pattern <name>,<type>,<number> For <type> specify 1 (home), 2 (mobile) or 3 (work). - all socket communication of the plugin can now be traced into /tmp/tcpclient.trace. If this file exists at VDR startup, tracing is enabled. If not, tracing is disabled. If you experience problems with vdr-fritzbox, this trace may be helpful in debugging the issue. However, please be aware that this trace may contain password and other sensitive information. - modified logging to syslog. All log entries related to this plugin are now prefixed with "vdr-fritzbox:". - removed memory leak in cMenuSetupFritzbox::Store[MSN|Fonbooks] - configuration changes of MSN filter, selected fonbooks, hostname and password are now considered immediately without a restart - fixed a possible crash when using the plugin with showNumber = pauseOnCall = muteOnCall = false. (Patch provided by Andreas [26]) - added new setup options for country code and region code. If the plugin is unable to detect these automatically (e.g., with some older Fritz!Boxes) the values are taken from these setup options. (reported by Ronny [30]) - updated russian translations (provided by neptunvasja [6]) - updated italian translations (provided by Diego [24]) [/code] Download via http://www.joachim-wilke.de/vdr-fritz.htm -- Best Regards, Joachim.

Then you have the '0' to toggle the order. I'm missing this plugin more because it can move recordings. Greets

Thanks Thomas that did it. I got it to work after renaming Make.config.template to Make.config. I will post this issue on the Vomp forum.
