vdr-xine + mplayer-plugin + MPlayer - is it possible ?

Hi i try to run MPlayer on my vdr 170 + mplayer-plugin from HG + vdr-xine (if it possible) in mplayer.sh I have written #!/bin/sh CMDLINE="mplayer -fs -vo xv -ao alsa -cache 4096 -slave -nolirc -quiet" DISPLAY=:0.0 $CMDLINE "$1" |logger exit but after the start of reply some file with mplayer-plugin I have resume: resume file is '/mnt/asp/video/hdtv/.mplayer.resume' resume: assuming empty resume file [VO_XV] Could not grab port 65. [VO_XV] Could not find free Xvideo port - maybe another process is already [VO_XV] using it. Close all video applications, and try again. If that does [VO_XV] not help, see 'mplayer -vo help' for other (non-xv) video out drivers. Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device.

Is it possible to solve this issue ? Goga777

Question device number using dvb-s budget
by lukkinosat 10 Jun '08

10 Jun '08

Hello If I have a DVB-S FF cDevice::NumDevices return "0" cDevice::PrimaryDevice->DeviceNumber() return "0" phisical dvb adapter is "0". But if I have a DVB-S BUDGET + XINE (or DRX3) cDevice::NumDevices return "2" cDevice::PrimaryDevice->DeviceNumber() return "1", phisical dvb adapter is "0" or "1"? How do I get the number phisical dvb adapter? Thank Luca ___________________________________ Scopri il Blog di Yahoo!

Diseqc dosen't work with dvbscan
by Rocky 10 Jun '08

10 Jun '08

I am in Asia and I have a Diseqc (should be Compatible with 2.0 version) which connect with 4 Satellite, LNB1=105.5 LNB2=115.5 LNB3=138.0 LNB4=146.0. And the DVB-S card is Twinhan 1020A. Everything hardware is working well under Windows system, and now I want move it to Linux.VDR has been successfully setup which I can use it watching LNB1 channel without any problem. ( I use dvbscan to scan generate the channel.conf) But, when I want add LNB2 or LNB3 and 4's channel, it looks dvbscan can not switch to them and tuning. I have spend lots of time Google the answer but can not find any useful solutions. The problem simple description is that the command: >dvbscan /usr/share/dvb/dvb-s/AsiaSat3S_C-105.5E -l 5750 -s 0 using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' initial transponder 4000000 H 26850000 3 >>> tune to: 4000:h:0:26850 DVB-S IF freq is 1750000 >dvbscan /usr/share/dvb/dvb-s/AsiaSat3S_C-105.5E -l 5750 -s 1 scanning /usr/share/dvb/dvb-s/AsiaSat3S_C-105.5Escanning /usr/share/dvb/dvb-s/AsiaSat3S_C-105.5E using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' initial transponder 4000000 H 26850000 3 >>> tune to: 4000:h:1:26850 DVB-S IF freq is 1750000 it looks response the same result(channel list) even if I use different "-s N" parameter. But the command: >dvbscan /usr/share/dvb/dvb-s/Asia6B_C-115.5E -l 5750 -s 1 scanning /usr/share/dvb/dvb-s/Asia6B_C-115.5E using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' initial transponder 3840000 H 27500000 3 >>> tune to: 3840:h:1:27500 DVB-S IF freq is 1910000 WARNING: >>> tuning failed!!! If, I un-plug the line from LNB2 and plug into the LNB1 on my Diseqc, above command will successful find channel too. I try to modify the diseqc.conf file, but it looks only worked for vdr not for dvbscan... So, what can I do and any suggestions? Regards, Rocky.Lee

update 1.4 to 1.6 -> cutting recordings makes vdr unresponsive
by Hanno Zulla 09 Jun '08

09 Jun '08

Hi, I have updated my vdr: Old: Celeron 850 MHz, 256 MB Ram, very slow but silent PATA disk, Debian, vdr 1.4.x (e-tobi) New: AMD Athlon X2 2,1 GHz, 2 GB Ram, standard SATA disk, Ubuntu, vdr 1.6.x (self-compiled from e-tobi's repository) The hardware should be much faster now, but vdr turns very slow and unresponsive whenever it cuts a recording in the background. vdr reacts to a button on the remote with notable delay. (I don't remember this behaviour with the old vdr setup.) Any idea where to look for this issue? Thanks, Hanno

False timer conflict
by Martin Emrich 08 Jun '08

08 Jun '08

Hi! I saw these in my syslog: Jun 7 10:12:01 sauron vdr: [5433] info: 1 timer conflict(s)! First at 11.06 00:19. Show them? Jun 7 10:42:00 sauron vdr: [5433] info: 1 timer conflict(s)! First at 11.06 00:19. Show them? At the time this recording is scheduled, only one of my two cards would be in use. The recording was scheduled by EPGSearch on an encrypted channel, where I don't have a smartcard/CAM/whatever for. I'll therefore delete the timer entry, but maybe the error message could say something like "timer on an encrypted channel, but no decryption possible" or so to clarify things. Ciao Martin

[OT] Generic GPU-Accelerated Video Decoding
by Gregoire Favre 08 Jun '08

08 Jun '08

Hello, just found out at http://code.google.com/soc/2008/xorg/appinfo.html?csaid=ACD6AA025594454A that : "he purpose of this project is to produce a video decoding solution for GPUs that are supported by the Gallium3D driver framework. The project will attempt to implement the XvMC API using the programmable pipeline of a typical GPU, thereby providing accelerated video decoding to a wide variety of hardware. Since the decoding will be implemented using the GPU's programmable pipeline, it is important to note that this solution should support all recent GPUs regardless of whether or not they include dedicated video decoding hardware. It is hoped that this GPU-based acceleration will allow for real-time play back of HD video streams on even modest hardware. The implementation will be developed and tested using Gallium3D's SoftPipe driver, a stable software reference implementation, and later Nvidia hardware and the Nouveau driver." You can follow the progress at http://www.bitblit.org/gsoc/gallium3d_xvmc.shtml Could be pretty usefull to lots of us :-) -- Grégoire FAVRE http://gregoire.favre.googlepages.com http://www.gnupg.org http://picasaweb.google.com/Gregoire.Favre

How to properly attach stream to live view?
by Udo Richter 07 Jun '08

07 Jun '08

Hi list, Is there a proper way to attach another stream receiver to the currently receiving channel, and - more important - disconnect it properly on channel change? The problem arises from difficulties with the osdteletext plugin. (see http://www.vdr-portal.de/board/thread.php?threadid=70372 ) The problem of the current implementation is that on channel change the teletext receiving stream is disconnected on cStatus::ChannelSwitch(dev,0), which is _after_ GetDevice picked the device for the next channel. And since the teletext stream is still being received, the primary receiving device (FF card) is 'in use' and has NeedsDetachReceiver set - so a budget card is preferred for live viewing. (FF cards normally use no cReceivers at all for live view, so the device is automatically 'free' on channel switch.) (Btw: On 2x budget only systems, it seems as if the live view will constantly switch between the devices for the same reason, or?) Taking a look at the subtitles receiver shows that the subtitles stream is disconnected at the beginning of cDevice::SetChannel, which is right before the GetDevice call, thus a FF card is 'free' again at the GetDevice call. If there's no proper way to solve this right now, I could imagine a few VDR changes that would: - Find a way to mark a receiver as being 'live related' and disconnect it before live channel switching. - Find a way to mark a receiver as being 'extremely unimportant', and don't count them as NeedsDetachReceiver or as Receiving() in that case, maybe by using -1 as priority. - Extend GetDevice to ignore some receivers that will be disconnected afterwards anyway - maybe define 'related' receivers that will disconnect together. - Notify plugins about the upcoming channel switch _before_ the GetDevice call, so live receivers can be disconnected. Cheers, Udo

Problem with dvd plugin.. Anyone know how to fix?
by VDR User 01 Jun '08

01 Jun '08

Recently I've been getting the following error when compiling the dvd plugin: /usr/include/dvdread/ifo_types.h:32:2: error: #error "Must include <inttypes.h> or <stdint.h> before any libdvdread header." This is with debian sid, gcc-3.4 and gcc-4.2, and dvd-0.3.6-b04. I tried to add #include <inttypes.h> into the beginning of /usr/include/dvdread/ifo_types.h but it had no affect. Many thanks for your help!

Re: [vdr] reelchannelscan 0.6.1 patch for vdr-1.7.0 + h264
by Mike Booth 31 May '08

31 May '08

The target machine needs libz and libbz2 do you have both of these installed? and are you sure that you have libboost-iostreams-dev installed properly. Hope this helps. works fine for me except that at the end of a scan it returns to channel 1 and not the last channel ( pain in the arse) Mike
