HD programme recording still broken

Hello, recording a HD TV programme still results in a VDR emergency exit even in the latest VDR dev version: Jun 10 19:38:02 localhost vdr: [5512] live timer 1 (86 1928-2010 'Doctors') added Jun 10 19:38:02 localhost vdr: [5534] timer 1 (86 1928-2010 'Doctors') set to event Fri 10.06.2011 19:30-20:00 'Doctors' Jun 10 19:38:02 localhost vdr: [5512] switching device 1 to channel 86 Jun 10 19:38:02 localhost vdr: [5512] timer 1 (86 1928-2010 'Doctors') start Jun 10 19:38:02 localhost vdr: [5512] Title: 'Doctors' Subtitle: '(null)' Jun 10 19:38:02 localhost vdr: [5512] record /var/lib/video/Doctors/2011-06-10.19.28.86-0.rec Jun 10 19:38:02 localhost vdr: [5512] creating directory /var/lib/video/Doctors Jun 10 19:38:02 localhost vdr: [5512] creating directory /var/lib/video/Doctors/2011-06-10.19.28.86-0.rec Jun 10 19:38:02 localhost vdr: [5512] recording to '/var/lib/video/Doctors/2011-06-10.19.28.86-0.rec/00001.ts' Jun 10 19:38:02 localhost vdr: [5556] recording thread started (pid=5512, tid=5556) Jun 10 19:38:03 localhost vdr: [5524] timer 1 (86 1928-2010 'Doctors') set to event Fri 10.06.2011 19:30-20:00 'Doctors' Jun 10 19:38:33 localhost vdr: [5556] ERROR: video data stream broken Jun 10 19:38:33 localhost vdr: [5556] initiating emergency exit Jun 10 19:38:33 localhost vdr: [5512] emergency exit requested - shutting down The same problem appears with all HD (H.264) channels, be it BBC HD or HBO HD or anything else.

How to add new sattelite?
by Artem Makhutov 12 Jun '11

12 Jun '11

Hello, I would like to receive one more sattelite using VDR. I have added one more LNB to my sat dish pointing to AMOS S4.0W. I have manually added some channels to channels.conf and vdr has pick them up and has updated channels.conf, but a lot of channels are missed there. It looks like the NIT table is incorrect on Amos and VDR does not find all channels. What is the best way to perform a full scan on vdr, or just to add the missing transponders? Thanks, Artem

It will only become false again during runtime, if vdr calls the pvrinput- function SetChannelDevice() and determines the needed settings. And this is your problem. There are no debug messages from pvrinput's SetChannelDevice() or ProvidesChannel(), so vdr never calls these pvrinput functions - although a channel switch for a pvrinput device is requested. But why? I have no idea. It works for you with vomp. It worked for me with streamdev when I tested this last year. But I had only streamdev-server running and used vlc to switch channels. Maybe a streamdev developer reads this and has an idea or can explain possible interactions between streamdev-client, vdr and a receiving device.

If both my tuners are busy then it will lock to channel 5 on my backend if I test it with xineliboutput. Not lock to channel 6. I had a look at the http::// streamdev playlist settings and it sees different channel pids. Streamdev to vlc would work as it breaks the streamdev connection when you change channel. But streamdev-server to streamdev-client doesn't seem to break the connection, just request a second channel as it releases the first.

I think Rob's version of pvrinput has already the code for calling the externchannelswitch-script in "case eTelevision" and not only in "case eExternalInput". (Otherwise it wouldn't work at startup). The code in ProvidesChannel() and SetChannelDevice checks not only for the same frequency, but also for the channel number: if ((Channel->Number() == CurrentChannel.Number()) && (CurrentFrequency == Channel->Frequency()) && (CurrentInput == input) && (CurrentNorm == norm)) When Rob switches to another channel number, pvrinput should return needsDetachReceivers = true in ProvidesChannel(). It should also get a call for SetChannelDevice(). The problem is that both functions are never called - but obviously only in combination with running streamdev.

[ANNOUNCE] vdr-rotorng-0.1.0
by Morfsta 08 Jun '11

08 Jun '11

Hi, The first version of my plugin rotorng has been released here: - http://projects.vdr-developer.org/projects/plg-rotor-ng This plugin allows you to steer a disecq 1.1 rotor, find satellites with a signal meter and to store them at given positions. It also has a rudimentary channel scanner which works with both DVB-S and S2. Much of this code has been merged together from the existing actuator and rotor plugins, so thanks to the developers of those for their work. This is an alpha version, though it has been stable on my own system for a few months. I haven't been able to make as much additional progress on it as I'd like since my previous email due to work and holidays so I'm releasing it as is for the moment. Please see the README file, there are a number of functions within the user interface that aren't fully implemented or working but the main functions are there. Good luck! Regards, Morfsta

Streamdev to Streamdev with PVRInput card
by Rob Davis 08 Jun '11

08 Jun '11

I have a PVR500 with the PVRInput plugin running on my Backend. I am using an old Hauppauge FF DVB-s card just as a frontend on another low powered system in order to throw the PVRInput channels to the kitchen. On the backend it's all working, however, switching between channels doesn't quite work, as the streamdev server will give the client the same channel over and over again regardless of what it requested, unless the device changes (ie, if I go from /dev/video1 to /dev/video2 it'll change channel). An example of the channel list is: 2-WTTW PBS_Affiliate ntsc;WTTW:67250:TV|NTSC:V:0:301+101=2:300=@4:0:0:30020:32:32:0 3-WREX NBC_Affiliate ntsc;WREX:67250:TV|NTSC:V:0:301+101=2:300=@4:305:0:30030:48:48:0 4-WTVO ABC_Affiliate ntsc;WTVO:67250:TV|NTSC:V:0:301+101=2:300=@4:0:0:30040:64:64:0 5-WIFR CBS_Affiliate ntsc;WIFR:67250:TV|NTSC:V:0:301+101=2:300=@4:0:0:30050:80:80:0 6-WQRF Fox_Affiliate ntsc;WQRF:67250:TV|NTSC:V:0:301+101=2:300=@4:0:0:30060:96:96:0 But, obviously all on the same line. I think this is probably an issue with streamdev rather than pvrinput as it works with Vomp happily. I need it to detach and change channel in order to trigger the external channel changer script.

Can VDR record only new episodes of shows?
by John Klimek 07 Jun '11

07 Jun '11

Is it possible for VDR to only record new episodes of shows? For example, I don't want to record every single episode of a certain show, but instead I just want the new episodes. Also, how smart is VDR if an episode is a special episode and is longer than a normal episode, etc? Thanks, John

Anybody using VDR-Live with VDR 1.7.18?
by John Klimek 07 Jun '11

07 Jun '11

I'm using VDR 1.7.18 with the latest GIT version of VDR-Live and it's not working that great... For example, some images do not appear and then when I try to access certain links (randomly) VDR will just crash without any errors. I've tried enabling verbose debugging for VDR-Live but it's not saying anything... Does anybody else have these problems?
