How to use VDR2VDR for h264 streaming?
by YUP 02 May '08

02 May '08

Hello, We (me and my friend from the States) have the following problem. My friend wants to watch tv programs from Europe, which I stream to him. Because my upload is not too big (about 0.5 megabits) we used externremux script together with stream-device plugin for vdr to encode stream with h264 codec and after that stream it into internet. I have to say that my friend was impressed, quality was really nice. Now we want more :-) It is so inconvenient to use web-interface for switching channels, search EPG etc. And here is our question: is it possible to use vdr-stream plugin to stream from one VDR (server) to another VDR( client) h264 encoded stream in the same way as it is implemented in VDR-2-VDR with mpeg2? I mean with remote menu, epg searching, switching channels. Regards, Yarema

I tried loading streamdev urls like http://vdr:3000/TS/3 with PS3 browser.. It does understand that it's some sort of stream, but I think it mistakes it as mp3 audio for some reason. Perhaps it would help if the url would end with .mpg or something. So a playlist doesn't help here, because ps3 can't open the stream itself.. > > IMHO this would be a logical extension to the streamdev plugin. :) > > > see above - yes. This and the possibility to have some notification > between mediatomb and streamdev-server this would be really nice. I'm not switching to mediatomb now that I have spend days to get Fuppes working. :) Anyway, with Fuppes I can play any video file with PS3. Anyway, if I use "wget http://127.0.0.1:3000/TS/3" to get a few MB of data and save that as "test.mpg", ps3 will show it just fine. So the format itself is just fine, I just can't get it streaming.. I'll probably try to get direct http stream support in fuppes, that should do the trick. :) -- Teemu Suikki http://www.z-power.fi/

BBC EPG from sat ? (loadepg equivalent ?)
by Gregoire Favre 01 May '08

01 May '08

Hello, even if my english is quiete limited, I really enjoy the program from the BBC (S13.0E/S19.2E/S28.2E) which are FTA :-) The only thing I miss is an epg of more than current and next. Is it a limitation of VDR (I mean does it work for other receiver) or are the BBC only broadcasting current and next epg ? I have internet access on my computer, maybe it could be a way to go, but I would find much cleaner from the sat. I wanted to try something like loadepg, but version 0.1.12 fails with : g++ -O3 -march=core2 -mtune=core2 -DPIC -pipe -Wall -Woverloaded-virtual -fPIC -c -D_GNU_SOURCE -DPLUGIN_NAME_I18N='"loadepg"' -I/usr/src/CVS/multiproto/linux/include -I../../../include loadepg.c In file included from loadepg.c:9: loadepg.h:20:33: error: vdr/dvb_api_emulate.h: No such file or directory make: *** [loadepg.o] Error 1 And version 0.1.11 also fails. g++ -O3 -march=core2 -mtune=core2 -DPIC -pipe -Wall -Woverloaded-virtual -fPIC -c -D_GNU_SOURCE -DPLUGIN_NAME_I18N='"loadepg"' -I/usr/src/CVS/multiproto/linux/include -I../../../include loadepg.c loadepg.c: In member function `bool cLoadepgOsd::SwitchToEpgChannel()': loadepg.c:1057: error: no matching function for call to `cChannel::SetSatTransponderData(int, int, char&, int, fe_code_rate)' ../../../include/vdr/channels.h:226: note: candidates are: bool cChannel::SetSatTransponderData(int, int, char, int, int, int, int, int) make: *** [loadepg.o] Error 1 Which I didn't investigate further, because loadepg don't mention anything about BBC channels, so it's current incompatibiliy with multiproto isn't a real problem for me right now... Any idea on how to have better epg for BBC channels ? If there is no other choices, I should give getskyepg.pl a try :-) -- Grégoire FAVRE http://gregoire.favre.googlepages.com http://www.gnupg.org http://picasaweb.google.com/Gregoire.Favre

Hello, I got wrong char on some channels with 1.7.0 which were fine with 1.6.0 and VDR_CHARSET_OVERRIDE set to ISO8859-15. Is there some change in that aspect not documented in HISTOTY ?

[ANNOUNCE] live-0.2.0
by Dieter Hametner 30 Apr '08

30 Apr '08

Hello. A new stable version of LIVE plugin has been released: Version 0.2.0 While the CVS versions of LIVE were quite stable, this release shall mark a stable base for the various VDR and Linux distributions. From the homepage http://live.vdr-developer.org/ “LIVE, the LIVE Interactive VDR Environment, allows a comfortable operation of VDR and some of its plugins trough a web interface. Unlike external programs, which communicate with VDR and its plugins through the SVDRP interface, LIVE has direct access to the internal data structures of VDR. This makes LIVE very fast.” This version is compatible with VDR 1.4.3 up to current stable VDR 1.6.0. The English (original strings), German and Finnish (extra thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg) translations are complete. Other languages still lack some strings. If we get patches based on this release for these languages we will release patch releases (eg. 0.2.x) with the translations applied. The LIVE development team thanks the contributors that helped to make the enhancements since the last release. You can download the source code from: http://live.vdr-developer.org/downloads/vdr-live-0.2.0.tar.gz Please report bugs and new features wishes to the bug tracker: http://www.vdr-developer.org/mantisbt/main_page.php Enjoy The LIVE development team -- Dieter Hametner dh (plus) vdr (at) gekrumbel (dot) de LIVE plugin developer http://live.vdr-developer.org

MANUAL -> 14. The conf.d subdirectory), suggested by Mike Constabel. - new SVDRP command 'LSCC' that returns the results of a timer conflict check. See the MANUAL for details about the format of the result list. - new patch against VDR (vdr-1.5.17-progressbar-support-0.0.1.diff) that adds support for graphical progressbars in skins classic and st:tng, thanks to zulu@vdrportal - '0' in the menu of done recordings now toggles the display of the episode name only - the favorites menu can now also be displayed after 'Overview - Now' via setup, suggested by Bittor Corl - menu of recordings done now sorts the date top down - support for new info key behaviour in vdr-1.5.13 - changes for builtin graphtft-patch (when using VDR-extension-patch you need > v.37) - updated the timercmd-patch for vdr-1.5.12 (patches/timercmd-0.1_1.5.12.diff) - added patches/README.patches to describe the existing patches - update of 'undoneepgsearch.sh', a script to remove recordings from the done file via reccmds.conf, thanks to Viking@vdrportal. - update of finnish translation, thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg - full spanish translation, many thanks to agusmir, dragondefuego, GenaroL, lopezm and nachofr from todopvr.com, and especially to bittor - update of italian translation, thanks to Diego from vdr-italia.phpbb24.com - update of dutch translation, thanks to carel@bugtracker - the setup option "No announcements when replaying" is now ignored, if the search timer update was triggered manually, suggested by Andreas Mair. fixes: - shifting the time display: the start time now only gets displayed in 'Overview - Now' instead of a progressbar, if there's not already a start time in the menu template ('%time%') as in the default template, thanks to Getty@vdrportal for reporting - fixed some issues regarding GPL, thanks to Thomas Günther for reporting - fixed a crash when no EPG is present, thanks to Petri Helin for providing a patch - the default value for maximum duration is now '23:59' to avoid problems with external tools, thanks to ralf-naujokat@bugtracker for reporting (bug-id #371) - after an EPG change of less then 10 minutes epgsearch modified a timer instead of creating a new one. This caused problems with events with less then 10 minutes. The tolerance is therefore now min(<event duration>, 10 min).

transponder moving
by UseNet-Posting-Nospam-74308-＠zocki.toppoint.de 28 Apr '08

28 Apr '08

ARD swaps transponder 2nd June. With VDR that seems to be difficult? Exsample: ARD is now at say "Channel 5" the new ARD Channels are detected at "Channel 1200" ff... VDR allows to mark "Channel 1200" and move it 1204 lines back wards via cursor. (Channel table does no "wrapp", there are 1700 channel entries totally so the other way arround would be "only" 500 lines...)) OK, Channel lists can be sorted by transponder owners. That way old and new ARD channels are side-byside, but in that mode "move" does not work anymore... OK, so let's move the 1204 lines so the new channel will become "Channel 6" Now simply "delete channel 5"... Oops, does not work as there are "active timers". OK, lets go the timers, and move them first. No way to sort them by Channels, and not really "attractive" to change every timer manually. I can't imagine that this is really the "intended" way if a buque swaps transponders Please tell me what i made wrong? Why is there no "exchange" or "direct renumber"? BTW: The new ARD channels will be on "lo"-Band. A further reason to make the "single LNB patch" part of VDR...
