Launching vdr + xineliboutput at startup
by Damien Bally 31 Oct '11

31 Oct '11

Hello I'm making some kind of embedded vdr distribution based on busybox and minimal X11, the problem is I have no idea of how I can launch vdr and xineliboutput at startup. For now, I'm doing manually : # xinit /usr/bin/rxvt then type : # vdr -Pxineliboutput I tried to type directly : # xinit /usr/local/bin/vdr -Pxineliboutput but vdr just displays its logo, with no error in /var/log/messages though. I can still launch vdr with : # xinit /usr/bin/rxvt -e /usr/local/bin/vdr -… [View More]

Hi! Any suggestions for small, powerful, quiet, FullHD VDR client? So, I search machine what would act as VDR-client, using xineliboutput with FullHD resolution and machine would have DVI or HDMI connection + optical audio. Of course remote control is needed too! ;-) -- JJussi

reencode/transcode to(!) vdr
by M. Fiegert 28 Oct '11

28 Oct '11

Hello, can anybody please point me to some examples how to transcode/reencode to vdr format (ts or pes if necessary)? I found a lot of convert scripts, mencoder commandlines, ... to transcode from vdr to eg mp4. Unfortunatly I could not find anything for the opposite direction :-( How can I go the other way round (to view external files in vdr with the same comfort as native recordings) or reencode recordings (to compress pes and ts mpeg recordings to h264 with lower resolution - you don'… [View More]

VDR segfault with cable provider Unitymedia (DE)
by Juergen Judt 25 Oct '11

vdr-1.7.21 segfault by cable provider unitymedia (DE) Hi, I have problems with the VDR because I get segfaults every ~5-10 minutes. Similar problems are also reported in the VDR-Portal --> www.vdr-portal.de/board60-linux/board14-betriebssystem/board69-c-t-vdr/p102… . The failure / segfault must have something to do with the EPG scan...... When I limit the channels.conf and set in the DVB menu --> Update Channels to "Names and PIDs" it works without segfaults. In case that the … [View More]

FreeviewHD compressed EPG
by Stuart Morris 25 Oct '11

25 Oct '11

In the absence of a modification to the Eepg plugin to decompress the FreeviewHD EPG, I have applied the original Freesat.diff to my installation of VDR 1.7.21 and have achieved some success accessing the FreeviewHD EPG. The patch is here: http://www.rst38.org.uk/vdr/freesat.diff The first hunk fails to apply but this is ok because that part of the patch is relevant to freesat only. The decompressed EPG has many 'holes' in it due to incomplete Huffman lookup tables in the freesat.diff. I did … [View More]

vdr-sxfe and compositing
by Tony Houghton 24 Oct '11

24 Oct '11

I'm having some problems with vdr-sxfe under GNOME3/mutter. If I start it with --fullscreen it doesn't go fullscreen properly; I can still see the gnome shell panel at the top of the screen and there's no vsync so I get tearing. If I toggle fullscreen off and on again by double-clicking it does cover up the panel correctly but I still get tearing. If I start it without --fullscreen and double click it works correctly without tearing. I would have thought it would be a good idea to have an … [View More]
