timerconflict handling between VPS events
by Tuxoholic 15 Oct '11

15 Oct '11

hi list I noticed vdr 1.7.16 does handle timer conflicts differently if one of two conflicting timers is a VPS event. Take for example two timers: timer #1 1623-1707 with timer priority 48 timer #2 1655-1736 with timer priority 52 If both timers are *NOT* VPS events vdr does follow the timer priority, thus the change from timer #1 to timer #2 will happen @16:55 precisely. Now try the same with timer #2 set up as a VPS event (VPS margin two minutes, VPS time is correct) As expected I do have the following line in syslog @16:53: timer 2 (1655-1736 VPS) entered VPS margin ... but the change does not happen before 17:07 - can somebody explain to me why? I expected a VPS timer with higher priority would change channel @VPS margin and wait for the event to happen. Can this be implemented, or are there concerns about this sort of timer handling? Regards, Lou

Abandoned project: Streamdev widget for Samsung TV
by Frank Schmirler 14 Oct '11

14 Oct '11

Hi, a while ago some guy started to implement a widget for Samsung TVs to access streamdev via HTTP (http://projects.vdr-developer.org/issues/545). Unfortunately there hasn't been any progress recently and he doesn't reply to mails either. Maybe someone with a Samsung TV is willing to take over? I take the streamdev part, so all it takes is some basic JavaScript knowledge, the SDK from http://www.samsungdforum.com/ and of course a capable Samsung TV ;) Regards, Frank

Can VDR Live name recordings according to title?
by John Klimek 11 Oct '11

11 Oct '11

Is it possible to have VDR Live name it's recordings according to the title of the show? For example, I'd love to see recordings named like this: <Show Name> - <Episode Name>.ts (ie. "The King of Queens - Name of Episode.ts")

DVB-T2 tuning
by Chris Rankin 11 Oct '11

11 Oct '11

Hi, I'm assuming that VDR-1.7.x can tune into DVB-T2 channels, but it seems that Fedora 16 will still be using VDR-1.6.x. This is probably because VDR-1.7 is a development version, but I'd like to be able to use my PCTV 290e adapter in Fedora. So it looks like the DVB-T2 tuning parameters (QAM_256 support?) are going to need patching from 1.7 into 1.6. Can anyone point out the relevant code, please? I suspect that asking first will be faster... ;-). Thanks, Chris

Hi, > I tried to set up a dlna server with an earlier version of vdr-nfofs a few > months ago. It kinda worked but there were some performance problems in > regard to file system operations.

You can try my patchset but I haven't worked on that for some months now. Patch is not minimal and not cleanly separated, so you should pick the tidbits you like. Cya, Ed

DVB-T2 tuning
by Chris Rankin 10 Oct '11

10 Oct '11

> Here is what i did with 1.7 vdr. Yes, I know it works in vdr 1.7. And xine's DVB plugin tunes into the HD channels here too. The problem is that Fedora uses vdr 1.6, and this version doesn't work. So obviously the tuning code in vdr 1.7 is different somehow... Thanks, Chris

DVB-T2 tuning
by Chris Rankin 10 Oct '11

> I'm not aware of any DVB-T2 specific code in VDR 1.7.x AFAIK, DVB-T2 at least needs support for QAM_256. I don't think the DVB-T tuner in VDR 1.6 supports anything better than QAM_64, so adding QAM_256 would definitely be a start. Cheers, Chris

ANNOUNCE vdr-ttxtsubs 0.2.4 for VDR 1.7.21
by Tobi 08 Oct '11

08 Oct '11

The changes: * Updated patch for VDR 1.7.21 (Closes #745) !!! With this release the channels.conf format has changed !!! !!! You may need to manually update your channels.conf !!! With VDR 1.7.21 the subtitle PIDs are stored in the channels.conf as an extension to the teletext PID (see vdr.5 for details). This change made it neccessary to change the extension of the tpid in channels.conf used by the ttxtsubs patch: old: ...:201;150=deu,151=fin:... new ...:201+150=deu,151=fin;2001,2002:... ...where 201 is the TPID, 150 and 151 are the teletext pages for the German and Finnish teletext subtitles and 2001,2002 are the DVB subtitle PIDs. As always: Any help is welcome!
