Problem with CT HD channel (VDR 1.7.14)
by Roman Jarosz 23 Apr '10

23 Apr '10

Hi, I have problem with VDR and one HD channel it's CT HD Astra 23,5°E, 803 MHz, Horizonatal FEC - 5/6, 22 000 kS/s It don't have problem with other HD or SD channels. I think that the problem could be related to norm because the CT HD is DVB-S / MPEG-4 and the other HD channels are DVB-S2 / MPEG-4. When I try to play the channel through streamdev the picture/sound is broken and it stops immediately. When I try to record the stream, VDR will not write anything to the ts file and in the log is this: Apr 20 20:14:20 blackbox vdr: [4434] recording to '/home/video/Světové_finále_Red_Bull_Nordix_2010/2010-04-20.19.58.2-0.rec/00001.ts' Apr 20 20:14:20 blackbox vdr: [5058] recording thread started (pid=4434, tid=5058) Apr 20 20:14:20 blackbox vdr: [5059] receiver on device 1 thread started (pid=4434, tid=5059) Apr 20 20:14:20 blackbox vdr: [5060] TS buffer on device 1 thread started (pid=4434, tid=5060) Apr 20 20:14:23 blackbox vdr: [5060] buffer usage: 70% (tid=5059) Apr 20 20:14:24 blackbox vdr: [5060] buffer usage: 80% (tid=5059) Apr 20 20:14:24 blackbox vdr: [5060] buffer usage: 90% (tid=5059) Apr 20 20:14:24 blackbox vdr: [5060] buffer usage: 100% (tid=5059) Apr 20 20:14:51 blackbox vdr: [5058] ERROR: video data stream broken Apr 20 20:14:51 blackbox vdr: [5058] emergency exit request ignored according to setup Could you help me to debug this problem. Can I somehow export the CT HD stream (it's encrypted channel) so somebody could analyze it? I use VDR 1.7.14. Thanks, Roman PS. VDR is really great.

How to remove double quotes in names for sharing in samba?
by Andrey Kuzmin 23 Apr '10

23 Apr '10

What I'm trying to do is to make a samba network share to /video folder to watch recordings from windows PCs. Everything works, BUT... Many EPG titles from my provider contain double quotes, so recordings look like "TITLE_IN_RUSSIAN" . When file names countains " , samba converts this to something like _324CDE35 , so share contains unreadable directory names. I haven't found any way to force samba to deal with double quotes, so looking now for any way to force VDR to remove double quotes from recording names. One obvious way is to make a shell script that removes ", but in this case it's not clear when to execute it, I mean how to know that recording finished. Any other ideas how to walk around this issue?

Remote xineliboutput crashes when scaling
by Sami Sundell 21 Apr '10

21 Apr '10

Hello. Looks like this isn't strictly speaking VDR problem, since it appears to be a problem with Xine, but I'm wondering if anyone is using a similar setup in the first place and would've found a solution... To make it short, I'm using VDR bundle from e-tobi.net (1.6.0-16ctvdr2), running on 64-bit Debian Unstable. Output is done with xineliboutput plugin (1.0.6+cvs20100308.2219-1), and the image is spewed into CRT television through network using another machine - Debian Unstable, 32-bit x86. The output itself is done with xineliboutput-fbfe (1.0.6+cvs20100308.2219-1) using Matrox G450. Everything with 704x576 (and presumably 720x576) resolution works, but unfortunately some channels send other resolutions, such as 528x576. This results with a simple failure with error message in kern.log: vdr-fbfe[5429] general protection ip:af24feb1 sp:ad8c5f90 error:0 in xineplug_post_swscale.so[af24f000+4000] So, nothing that requires scaling, works. libxine1 pacakge is version 1.1.18.1-1+b2, same goes for libxine1-ffmpeg, libavcodec52 is version 5:0.5.1+svn20100411-0.0, libavutil49 4:0.5.1-3, libpostproc51 5:0.5.1+svn20100411-0.0. -- Sami Sundell ssundell(a)iki.fi

any gui to make life easier with channels.conf ?
by martinez 19 Apr '10

19 Apr '10

Him I have a channels list of over 5000 channels and it is a bit difficult to tidy up with a text editor. What I would need is an application that allows me to open channels.conf (locally) and display ONLY the bouquetes and allows me to re-arrange them and ideally to merge 2 of them at a time... Is there anything like that that works with a modern vdr channels.conf ?

[Announce] vdr-epgsync-0.0.4
by Frank Schmirler 19 Apr '10

19 Apr '10

Hi there, epgsync-0.0.4 is available for download at http://vdr.schmirler.de. Epgsync lets you import the EPG from an other (server) VDR. In addition to a simple 1:1 mapping, channels may be looked up by name. So you can even copy EPG of e.g. a DVB-S channel to an analog channel, which otherwise wouldn't have any EPG information. Most important change is the support for direct IPTV and analog integration into VDR 1.7.13+. Changelog: - VDR 1.7.13 obsoletes pluginparam-patch. Analog and IPTV now have dedicated channel source values. - Mapping channels by name failed when syncing in channel-by-channel mode and the channels to be imported were not part of the local channel list. (reported by tivi2@vdrportal) - Don't log LSTE errors caused by remote channels which are unknown or don't provide a schedule (reported by fnu@vdrportal) - Abort faster when stopping epgsync thread - Fixed missing translations in vdr 1.4.x Cheers, Frank

Cutting HD Recordings
by Falk Spitzberg 16 Apr '10

16 Apr '10

Hello, recently, i tried to cut a TS recording with VDR 1.7.12. Cutting it works ok, but when i replay it, there is a short distortion when it runs across the cut. On my production system, that is equipped with a Reel eHD, the problem is worse, because the eHD is completely confused when it crossed a cut. To get it back in sync, i need to jump forward or backward. Since this occurs only with HD recordings, i assume that VDR make some kind of mistake when it created the cutted version. -- Falk Spitzberg

XBMC with vdr-1.6.0 ??
by Simon Baxter 14 Apr '10

14 Apr '10

Hi Has anyone got XBMC working with vdr-1.6.0? I want to run XBMC, but am not ready to move to a .ts file format yet. So I was thinking I'd just get XMBC to call a script and run vdr-xine (ie not integrate with streamdev etc). This should be easy yes? Any pointers or experience? Thanks Simon

channelsource for streamdev ?
by Halim Sahin 13 Apr '10

13 Apr '10

Hi, Following action: 1. vdr server with dvb-s tuner and streamdev-server running 2. vdr client with a dvb-s tuner and streamdev-client running The client fails to receive the channels provided by the server because it tries to tune with it's owndvb-s tuner first. Is there a way to mark channels as streamdev server as source? HTH. Halim
