Hi,
Last night my system (DVB-S2 Hauppauge card/Liplianin
driver/Kerner2.6.27.10 (64bit OpenSuse) /l vdr 1.7.9/xine-ui with vdpau)
was working fine, but this morning I cannot watch TV and get these
errors. It wasn't very windy last night, but I am wondering what the
symptons are if the dish becomes misaligned, or the LNB fails?
Unfortunately I don't have another receiver to test it.

So far getting vdpau to work on Gentoo wasn't that difficult.
Overlay vdr-xine was used and then emerged xine-lib-1.2 to bring the
library up to speed. After that I pulled vdr-xineliboutput from cvs.
Compiled and it worked great especially deinterlacing! Only jaw
dropping experience there.
I have before got accustomed to using the cropping feature from
vdr-xineliboutput plugin. Crop converts a 4:3 input to 16:9 format. In
the README it states:
VDPAU
All video scaling, cropping, and …
[View More]postprocessing options must be disabled
if the VDPAU output device is used.
De-interlacing can be enabled with command-line option --post tvtime:
Examples:
vdr-sxfe --video vdpau --post tvtime:method=use_vo_driver
vdr -P"xineliboutput --video=vdpau --post=tvtime:method=use_vo_driver"
In the mean time, I have seen some patches floating on german speaking
forums on how to get cropping feature to work with vdpau.
http://vdr-portal.de/board/thread.php?threadid=86804 Does seem to give
the impression that it is doable. But I'm having trouble translating
that into.. well meaning full non-german speaking end-user noob.
Is there anybody that could explain where these patches fit in?
I use vdr-xineliboutput, pulled in from cvs and tried to apply the
patch xineliboutput-1.0.4-vdpau-support-v8.diff and failed. perhaps
command line incorrect? any examples?
I don't know how to patch xine-lib either, Gentoo pulls in
xine-lib-1.2 from http://hg.debian.org/hg/xine-lib/xine-lib-1.2/
The first line in the diff file for xine-lib is for vdr.h, which I
cannot find. The find utility only returns
./xine-lib-1.2/.hg/store/data/include/xine/input__vdr.h.i
./xine-lib-1.2/.hg/store/data/include/xine/vdr.h.i
./xine-lib-1.2/.hg/store/data/src/vdr/combined__vdr.h.i
./xine-lib-1.2/.hg/store/data/src/vdr/input__vdr.h.i
./xine-lib-1.2/.hg/store/data/src/vdr/post__vdr.h.i
So I'm stuck, any other Gentoo users here that got those patches working?
Thanks,
Theunis

Hi!
(VDR version 1.7.10, Ubuntu 9.10)
I have "little" problem with subtitles.. Location of them.
My TV is FullHD and to get nice menus I have set:
Setup - DVB
Subtitle offset: 100
Setup - Plugins - xineliboutput - OSD
Resolution: 1920x1080
Blending method: Hardware
Scaling method: no
Show all layers: no
Dynamic transparency correction: Off
Static transparency correction: Off
External subtitle size: tiny
DVB subtitle decoder: VDR
Problem is that 100 is bigest offset value what can be set and …
[View More]with that value,
subtitle are about middle of screen (at left side of course) and not at foot
area where they should be.
If I change Blending method to software, I can set subtitles to right place
with offset 70, BUT then text at OSD is awful looking.

Hi,
I want to implement a record player for my UPnP plugin and was wondering how the record files are played by the VDR. I found out that cFileName und cUnbufferedFile may be my friends, but I don't know how to seek a given file offset, if the recording is regarded as a single file.
Here an example: I want to seek offset 20. But the first file has its end offset at 15, so the file offset is at position 5 in the second file. Is it possible to do that with the existing functions of VDR?
Thanks!…

I have xine-lib-1.2-vdpau hg and latest xineliboutput plugin, seems to
work up to vdr-1.7.10 so far. Will test my vdpau setup and come back
to you. Need to test this one a wide screen :)

If you use the latest snapshot from cvs/svn of xineliboutput, the crop
feature using vdpau should be built in according to the author of the
plugin. Try updating to the latest snapshot of the plugin. This is my
suggestion.
