Create repeated remote key-press events until the remote key is released
by Patrick Maier 08 Jan '17

08 Jan '17

Hi, I'm using the Sony PS3 Bluetooth remote for controlling VDR. Everything works except for the repeating of key presses while holding down the key on the remote. I'm using the --lirc option for VDR to get the events from eventlircd. I managed to generate an event for the key-down. e.g.: KEY_ENTER and also for the key-up event: KEY_ENTER_rel Here only a suffix is appended to the key name (_rel). Is there a way to generate repeated key presses until the key-up appears? That would be great. If there is no way available yet, I could try to implement such a functionality in the lirc.c of the VDR core. Thanks a lot Patrick

VDR 2.3.2 and Plugins
by Richard Scobie 06 Jan '17

06 Jan '17

Just wanted to draw attention to this thread at vdrportal for anyone who is discouraged from trying the 2.3.x vdr due to plugins not working. <http://www.vdr-portal.de/board17-developer/board97-vdr-core/130045-produkti…> Or, for English only speakers: <https://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?depth=1&hl=en&rurl=tran…> Klaus has very generously jumped in and updated some and more are sure to follow. Anyone wanting extra skin capabilities, I have found SkinFlatPlus to work well. https://projects.vdr-developer.org/projects/plg-skinflatplus Have been running vdr 2.3.2 + dvdhddevice, femon, dvd, dvdswitch, streamdev-server and skinflatplus without problems for a couple of weeks now. Regards, Richard

[POLL] Is anybody actually using "device bonding" (aka "LNB sharing)?
by Klaus Schmidinger 03 Jan '17

03 Jan '17

Implementing "device bonding" (formerly known as "LNB sharing") has had quite an impact on VDR's dvbdevice.c, and made the code quite a bit more complex. Since this feature is really just an ugly hack, and it makes much more sense to provide each device with its own antenna cable, rather that connecting two or more devices to the same cable and having to limit them to the same polarization and frequency band, I'd very much like to remove that code from VDR's source. I would therefore like to know if there are any users who actually use this, and *really* need it. Klaus

vdr-convert updated, call for sample recordings
by Richard F 01 Jan '17

01 Jan '17

Happy New Year VDR users. There have been a few updates to the vdr-convert script + tools over at https://projects.vdr-developer.org/projects/vdr-convert/wiki in the last few weeks: * Added support for AC3/DTS streams in VDR1.x recordings (updated Genindex). Needs more compatibility testing * Added logging criticality to syslog messages (info, warn, err) * Optional email notification of events at criticality "err" * Fixes for very long program titles/subtitles and " in same To complete compatibility testing, I need a set of old .vdr recordings containing AC3/DTS/Other streams? and ideally dvb subtitles from a range of broadcasters,~100Mb samples are ideal. If you can help, please post them on a public fileshare, or point me to any existing files out there, I would appreciate it. If possible, please provide the matching "info.vdr" files as well. Thanks Richard

[ANNOUNCE] VDR developer version 2.3.2
by Klaus Schmidinger 27 Dec '16

27 Dec '16

Merry Christmas to all VDR users! It's been a very busy year for me, in which I was unable to spend as much time on VDR as I would have liked to. But now things are settled again and I managed to prepare a new developer version with the most important fixes and improvements. Please feel free to tell me if I missed something important - some things may well have slipped under my radar ;-). So here's my Christmas gift for you! VDR developer version 2.3.2 is now available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-2.3.2.tar.bz2 A 'diff' against the previous version is available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-2.3.1-2.3.2.diff MD5 checksums: 6dbb208ea3d59658a18912b49af175b3 vdr-2.3.2.tar.bz2 68a0ed9f01048026333939d30e0a6474 vdr-2.3.1-2.3.2.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 2.3.1: - Fixed a crash when deleting a recording (reported by Oliver Endriss). - Fixed an overflow of PIDs in a receiver (thanks to Robert Hannebauer). - Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto). - Fixed initializing device specific parameters in cDvbTransponderParameters. - The function SetCurrentChannel(const cChannel *Channel) is now deprecated and may be removed in a future version. Use SetCurrentChannel(int ChannelNumber) instead. - The SVDRP command DELC now refuses to delete the very last channel in the list, to avoid ending up with an empty channel list. - The cRwLock class now allows nested read locks within a write lock from the same thread. This fixes possible crashes when moving or deleting channels in the menu or through SVDRP (as well as other operations that try to acquire a read lock within a write lock). - Fixed a crash when trying to delete a channel that is being used by a timer. - Fixed setting the current item and counter values in the Recordings menu after deleting the last recording in a subfolder. - Fixed a crash when deleting a recording that is currently being replayed. - Fixed a crash when moving a recording to a folder on a different volume. The cRecordingsHandler now performs its actual operations in a separate thread, thus avoiding locking problems and reducing the time between subsequent operations. - Added a note to the description of cFont::Size(), regarding possible differences between it and cFont::Height() (suggested to Thomas Reufer). - Made the cPlayer member functions FramesPerSecond, GetIndex and GetReplayMode 'const' (thanks to Thomas Reufer). - Fixed resuming replay at a given position, which was off by one frame (thanks to Thomas Reufer). - Improved handling frame numbers to have a smoother progress display during replay of recordings with B-frames (thanks to Thomas Reufer). - Fixed replaying recordings to their very end, if they don't end with an I-frame (thanks to Thomas Reufer). - Implemented a frame parser for H.265 (HEVC) recordings (thanks to Thomas Reufer). - Added cFont::Width(void) to get the default character width and allow stretched font drawing in high level OSDs (thanks to Thomas Reufer). - Fixed regenerating the index of audio recordings (thanks to Thomas Reufer). - Fixed building VDR with systemd >= 230 (thanks to Ville Skyttä). - Sorted sources.conf by continous azimuth (thanks to Lucian Muresan). - Added 'S58.5E Kazsat 3' to sources.conf (thanks to Aitugan Sarbassov). - Fixed truncated date/time strings in the skins on multi-byte UTF-8 systems (reported by Sergey Chernyavskiy). - Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov). - Added a 'const' version of cTimers::GetTimer() (thanks to Lars Hanisch). - Fixed a typo in the description of cTimers::GetTimersRead() (thanks to Lars Hanisch). - Fixed a possible buffer overflow in handling CA descriptors (suggested by Lars Hanisch). - Avoiding some duplicate code and unnecessary work in nit.c (thanks to Ville Skyttä). - Added support for the systemd watchdog (thanks to Marc Perrudin), - Added a short sleep to cTSBuffer::Action() to avoid high CPU usage (thanks to Sergey Chernyavskiy). Have fun! Klaus

TT S2 6400 Live View vs. Recorded Audio
by Richard Scobie 30 Nov '16

30 Nov '16

A number of channels on one mux have HE-AACv2 audio which I believe to be incorrectly tagged as AAC and as a result, viewing them live in VDR, the audio is mute. However, if they are recorded and played back in VDR, the audio plays fine. Can anyone explain the difference between the audio handling? System is VDR 2.2.0 and TT S2 6400 with 0.5.1 firmware and latest drivers. Regards, Richard
