Unfortunately projects.vdr-developer.org is currently down. It's seems like a stupid Hacker/DOS attack causing to fill up the memory until the systems becomes non-responsive. There was no security leak, so all data is safe. I'm trying to figure out, how to avoid this in the future, so please be patient. The server will be up and running soon. Tobias

dvbscan vs builtin update generates double entries.
by Oliver Schinagl 27 Dec '10

27 Dec '10

I have created a channel.conf from dvbscan and used the built update function from VDR. All channels seem to be added/modified properly, but the FTA channels are different. Instead of modifying my current entry, it created new ones. Nederland 1;Digitenne:546000000:C12D12M64B8T8G4Y0:T:27500:0000:0000:0000:0:1101:8720:2214:0 Nederland 1;Digitenne:546000000:C12D12M64B8T8G4Y0:T:27500:7011:7012:7013:0:1101:8720:2211:0 Nederland 2;Digitenne:546000000:C12D12M64B8T8G4Y0:T:27500:0000:0000:0000:0:1102:8720:2214:0 Nederland 2;Digitenne:546000000:C12D12M64B8T8G4Y0:T:27500:7021:7022:7023:0:1102:8720:2211:0 Nederland 3;Digitenne:546000000:C12D12M64B8T8G4Y0:T:27500:0000:0000:0000:0:1103:8720:2214:0 Nederland 3;Digitenne:546000000:C12D12M64B8T8G4Y0:T:27500:7031:7032:7033:0:1103:8720:2211:0 I took the liberty of expanding the VID, AID and TID from 0 to 0000 so they'd align better in this e-mail only. All entries work however! Which baffles me. How can something without vid/aid work at all? Also, it seems that the 'proper' entry doesn't display EPG data at all. Ironically, the scrambled channels all seem to work just fine. Any clues on this?

CAM auto resetting - feature request??
by Simon Baxter 27 Dec '10

27 Dec '10

Hello My v 1.6.0 system has 2x Alphacrypt multi-CAMs. Occasionally one of the CAMs seems to "crash" and if I go into Setup > CAM one of the CAMs changes from "Alphacrypt" to "CAM Ready" - and will no longer decrypt channels. I then correspondingly get a bunch of timer conflicts, as 1/2 my CAM resources have vanished. Only ever one CAM fails, never both. I rectify this by selecting the CAM, and then hitting "reset" (sometimes a couple of times) - and it comes back. Unless I go into the Setup > CAM menu, I'm unaware that the CAM has "crashed". My request is...... Is there a way I can either 1)Automatically reset a CAM if it falls into this state or 2)Be notified, by generating a console/kernel message, so I can know to come in and fix this. Any ideas?

xine ui - small black bar on top
by Simon Baxter 23 Dec '10

23 Dec '10

Hi I'm intermittantly getting a 1cm black bar at the top of the screen in xine. I'm using vdr-xine version 0.9.3 with xine-lib-1.2, with a standard xine-ui front end and vdr-1.7.16. The black bar has a small white verticle line on the far right. Other than pushing the whole picture down 1cm, it has no other effect. When X first starts, and xine launches, the black bar isn't there. If I exit the xine front end and restart (without restarting vdr) it appears and won't go until X restarts again. Any ideas?

Cutting TS recordings outside of VDR
by Tobias Grimm 20 Dec '10

20 Dec '10

Hi! Before reinventing the wheel - is there any tool that can cut VDR's TS recordings outside of VDR? (Something like hlcut for VDR 1.6 recordings). Thx, Tobias

Cam not decoding content (VDR 1.6 TT-1500 T CI PCI)
by Oliver Schinagl 19 Dec '10

19 Dec '10

Hello all, I have recently purchased a TechnoTrend 1500 DVB-T PCI card with CI daughter board. I also have an official CAM and Smartcard for our local DVB-T service. The DVB-T in the air broadcasts 4 FtA channels and the rest encrypted. I can scan and find all the channels properly. Also watching FtA channels works without a problem. EPG I also receive for all channels in question. The CAM menu lists my cam properly (Conax 4.00e) and all information seems to be proper. I activated my smartcard via the phone this morning so that sh ould also not cause any problem. dmesg lists my cam as successfully initialized: Dec 16 16:19:11 erin kernel: [ 2771.999892] dvb_ca adapter 0: DVB CAM detected and initialised successfully I also have a ivtv based device in the box using the pvrinput plugin, but that shouldn't cause this? From the log I find the following after changing from channel 42 (FtA) to 64 (Scrambled) and back.

[ANNOUNCE] VDR developer version 1.7.16
by Klaus Schmidinger 16 Dec '10

16 Dec '10

VDR developer version 1.7.16 is now available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.16.tar.bz2 A 'diff' against the previous version is available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.15-1.7.16.diff WARNING: ======== This is a *developer* version. Even though *I* use it in my productive environment. I strongly recommend that you only use it under controlled conditions and for testing and debugging. The changes since version 1.7.15: - Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto). - Added missing Dtypes for ATSC (thanks to Alex Lasnier). - Updated the Portuguese language texts (thanks to Cristiano A. Silva). - Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Fixed the array size of Atypes in cPatFilter::Process() (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Added locking to the cCutter functions to avoid a crash in case CutRecording() is called from a plugin (reported by Andreas Mair). - Fixed DDS detection for HD resolution subtitles (thanks to Reinhard Nissl). - Fixed following symbolic links in RemoveFileOrDir(). - Added support for languages that are written right-to-left (based on a patch from Osama Alrawab). See INSTALL for information on how to turn this on. - Added Arabian language texts (thanks to Osama Alrawab). Have fun! Klaus

[PATCH] tools.h: include `stdarg.h` to fix `error: 'va_list' has not been declared` with uClibc
by Paul Menzel 13 Dec '10

13 Dec '10

From a94d15b582df5d1464cec8bc7dd68be46e1bf937 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Menzel <paulepanter(a)users.sourceforge.net> Date: Sun, 12 Dec 2010 19:21:25 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] tools.h: include `stdarg.h` For some reason using uClibc `tools.h` needs to have `stdarg.h` included explicitly.
