VDR ISDB-T support
by Christian Rodriguez 14 Sep '18

14 Sep '18

Hello everyone! I'm from Argentina, and up to last month I've been using VDR 1.7.262 with an ISDB-T USB adapter. It works really good, but the last week I've been trying to upgrade to VDR 2.2 and I've found a problem with ISDB-T cards: they are not supported. As I'm really interested in using VDR, I was digging inside the code and found a partial solution for this problem: as ISDBT is the same as DVBT, I've changed the way delivery system is queried. My changes are applied in a cloned repo at github: https://github.com/chrodriguez/vdr/commit/dadbca57c2dc55c1c53b4fa8f68b56728… That's the only change I've made. Now I can enjoy my fresh upgraded VDR installation!! I think a better refactor should be made, but for now it's working perfectly deployed as a docker container: https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/chrodriguez/vdr Thanks for this wonderfull project! -- Lic.

"TS packets to determine frame type"
by Richard F 11 Sep '16

11 Sep '16

Hi Klaus, I'm 99% of the way to finishing my H264 ffmpeg transcoding script, I'm just getting 2 of these warnings when reindexing transcoded files May 30 21:08:09 ha-server vdr: [31785] WARNING: required 5 video TS packets to determine frame type May 30 21:08:09 ha-server vdr: [31785] WARNING: required 5 video TS packets to determine frame type Sometimes the number is 4. Fortunately not over 6 yet. Is this a functional problem ? (files play in everything I need them to). I reduced the I-frame gap which also improves seeking performance, but that's not the issue. Looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's looking for - can you help? I may be able to adjust codec / muxer to avoid warnings Thanks Richard

[PATCH] Device power saving feature
by glenvt18 20 Aug '16

20 Aug '16

Hi folks. This patch introduces a feature which allows an idle device (a device which is not currently recording or streaming) to enter a power-down mode after some period of time. Given two timeout values, PowerdownTimeoutM and PowerdownWakeupH, it works like this: when a device becomes idle, it is kept powered up for PowerdownTimeoutM minutes doing, for instance, an EPG scan before it is powered down. If the device is still idle and has been powered down for PowerdownWakeupH hours it is powered up for PowerdownTimeoutM minutes and so on. When recording, streaming or a forced EPG scan starts, the device is powered up and it's idle timer is disabled. This implies that PowerdownTimeoutM should be enough for a full round of EPG scanning (20 seconds * number_of_transponders). Another option is to run EPG scans from cron (at night) and use SVDRP SCAN command. Actual implementation of power saving facilities is left to a derived device class. In the case of a DVB device it is implemented by closing it's frontend device. For a DVB-S/S2 tuner this usually means powering the LNB off. My measurements show 3-4W power consumption drops per tuner for various DVB-S/S2 tuners. So, this feature (together with HDD spin-down) is especially valuable while running a headless 24/7 VDR server and/or using several tuners. A SATIP device can also implement power saving if it is supported by a server. I know about the dynamite plugin, but 1) it does much more then this, 2) still requires a VDR patch, which is bigger, 3) doesn't work reliably for me and 4) I think this functionality should be part of the VDR core.

SatIP>plugin: how to configure 2 DD Octopus NETs with different satellites
by Patrick Boettcher 19 Jul '16

19 Jul '16

Hi, I have 2 DD Octopus NET devices. One is a 2x DVB-S(2) + 2x DVB-T(2) (let's call it AA) and the other one is 4x DVB-S(2) (BB). AA's satellite orientation is Astra 28.2, BB's one is Astra 19.2. How can I associate AA's or BB's inputs in VDR's configuration so that it uses 1) the right input for the right source 2) the maximum number of devices in parallel for recording, epg-scanning etc. conf.d/50-satip.conf contains --devices=8 --server=192.168.1.21|DVBS2-4|Octo1;192.168.1.20|DVBS2-2,DVBT2-2|Octo2 I found discussions where they say that in sources.conf one needs to assigned device numbers, so I tried: S19.2E 1 Astra 1KR/1L/1M/2C S19.2E 2 Astra 1KR/1L/1M/2C S19.2E 3 Astra 1KR/1L/1M/2C S19.2E 4 Astra 1KR/1L/1M/2C S28.2E 5 Astra 1N/2A/2F S28.2E 6 Astra 1N/2A/2F This isn't working, it seems that even for S28.2 channels it selects the S19.2-devices. Then I changed the diseqc.conf to 1 2 3 4: S19.2E 11700 V 9750 t v W15 [E0 10 38 F0] W15 A W15 t S19.2E 99999 V 10600 t v W15 [E0 10 38 F1] W15 A W15 T S19.2E 11700 H 9750 t V W15 [E0 10 38 F2] W15 A W15 t S19.2E 99999 H 10600 t V W15 [E0 10 38 F3] W15 A W15 T 5 6: S28.2E 11700 V 9750 t v W15 [E0 10 38 F4] W15 B W15 t S28.2E 99999 V 10600 t v W15 [E0 10 38 F5] W15 B W15 T S28.2E 11700 H 9750 t V W15 [E0 10 38 F6] W15 B W15 t S28.2E 99999 H 10600 t V W15 [E0 10 38 F7] W15 B W15 T Didn't help. Is there anything I can do? Thanks in advance for any help. Best regards, -- Patrick.

Logical Channel Numbers
by Stuart Morris 04 Jul '16

04 Jul '16

I have recently upgraded to VDR v2.2.0 and I notice in the changelog that support for Logical Channel Numbers (LCN) has been added. Is there any way to sort and select VDR channels by LCN yet? BTW My attempts at using scan to generate a channels.conf with LCN have been unsuccessful due to the fact that scan does not detect DVB-T2 FreeviewHD muxes in the UK. Thanks Stu-e

Re: [vdr] vdr --genindex fails on radio recording
by Richard F 02 Jul '16

02 Jul '16

Hi Thomas, The patch is a tiny bit different for VDR 2.2.0 - in remux.c - see below There's a small issue with audio types also: Here, AAC (ADTS) per ISO/IEC 13818-7 or AAC (LATM) per ISO/IEC 14496-3 is regularly used for audio in HD broadcasts - my suggestion is that these streams should be handled too. For example, I transcode radio/audio to AAC in m4a or AAC_LATM in .ts files. Arguably the newer ATSC, DTS, Dolby true HD... streams should be added too ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Program-specific_information#Elementary_strea… ) For now my audioparser line looks like this, which works for both flavours of AAC, and they play on Kodi and VLC. else if (type == 0x03 || type == 0x04 || type == 0x06 || type == 0x0F || type == 0x11) // MPEG2,4 AAC, AC3 audio The original audio-only .ts (MP2 codec) actually doesn't play in VLC, but plays in ffplay.
