VDR and sky CAM
by Tony Grant 07 Mar '08

07 Mar '08

Hello fans of British TV. At the moment I watch the FTA channels on 28.2/28.5 E I am thinking of investing £20 in a FTV card for the new freesat service. Is anyone using the card (or the sky card for existing service) with VDR? What kind of DVB-S card do you have (budget or FF)? What brand? At the moment I have a budget Skystar 2.6 in an Epia M10000 powered hush. Can I record HD to disk with this card? The Epia isn't powerfull enough to decode - I am thinking of streaming from the hush to another more powerful machine for viewing. TIA Tony --

[ANNOUNCE] VDR developer version 1.5.17 - release candidate 2
by Klaus Schmidinger 07 Mar '08

07 Mar '08

VDR developer version 1.5.17 is now available at ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.5.17.tar.bz2 A 'diff' against the previous developer version is available at ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.5.16-1.5.17.diff NOTE: ===== The originally planned release of version 1.6.0 has been postponed, because there have been a few small changes that need to be properly tested first. Please report any bugs as soon as possible. If nothing unexpected happens, I plan to release version 1.6.0 on March 9. The following translation files still have untranslated texts: ca_ES.po el_GR.po es_ES.po hr_HR.po nn_NO.po pl_PL.po pt_PT.po sv_SE.po uk_UA.po It would be nice if somebody could finish these before the 1.6.0 release. To avoid duplicate work, please announce your activity here in this thread. 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 1.5.16: - Updated the Swedish OSD texts (thanks to Tomas Berglund). - Made the 'pic2mpg' script of the 'pictures' plugin work with uppercase filename extensions and relative paths (thanks to Stefan Wagner for reporting this one). - Updated the Romanian OSD texts (thanks to Lucian Muresan). - Updated the Dutch OSD texts (thanks to Johan Schuring). - Stripping control codes 0x86 and 0x87 from SI strings. - Updated French language texts (thanks to Jean-Claude Repetto). - Fixed handling 3 and 4 byte UTF-8 symbols in Utf8CharGet() (thanks to Andreas Mair). - Fixed a crash in cFreetypeFont::DrawText() if an unknown symbol is encountered (thanks to Tobias Grimm). Unknown symbols are replaced with a '?'. - Updated the Slovenian OSD texts (thanks to Matjaz Thaler). - Updated the Czech OSD texts (thanks to Vladimír Bárta and Jiri Dobry). - Updated the Turkish OSD texts (thanks to Oktay Yolgeçen). - The 'plugins' target in the Makefile now returns an error exit code if one of the plugins failed to compile (suggested by Tobias Grimm). - Rendering the non-breaking space symbol as a blank (thanks to Tobias Grimm). - Changed the default character set for SI data from ISO6937 (as required by the DVB standard ETSI EN 300 468) to ISO-8859-9, in order to work around the stupidity of some providers, who actually use ISO-8859-9, but fail to correctly announce that. *When reporting problems, please don't reply to this message!* Create a new thread instead, using a descriptive subject! Have fun! Klaus

Feeds for IPTV plugin
by Timothy D. Lenz 05 Mar '08

05 Mar '08

I spent awhile googling IPTV to see what could be used with this plugin. The big network sites like NBC and CBS came up and they do list shows you can "watch online". But I found none of the info that would be needed to configure the plugin to work with these sites. Other sites that came up where www.dishnetpc.com/ and www.direct-pctv.com/ which claim unlimited access to 9000 channels if you buy their $40 software. Something noticably lacking from those sites is a REAL LIST of the channels they give access to. And even if they where legit, there is nothing there that indicates they would work with vdr and the plugin. So just what can be used with the IPTV plugin? Any links to sites known to work?

cChannels::ReNumber() & maxNumber
by sundararaj reel 05 Mar '08

05 Mar '08

Hi all, if I empty channels.conf while VDR is running then cChannels::ReNumber() doesnot set cChannels::maxNumber to 0. Is this a feature ? Of course, when vdr is restarted I have maxNumber set to 0, thanks to initialization in cChannels(). Could we not, in the beginning of ReNumber(), set maxNumber = 0 ? I am running 1.4.7, 1.5.16 seems to be the same. Thanks. -- Sundararaj

TNT cards advice
by Éric Laly 04 Mar '08

04 Mar '08

Hello, I'm using VDR from a long time with 2 DVS-S cards (one FF and one budget). Now that french TNT comes to me (and tired of waiting free TNT by sat...) I'll upgrade to TNT cards. So I'm planning to add one WinTV-NOVA-T-500 and one WinTV-NOVA-T PCI and keep my FF DVB-S card for TV output. I'm thinking that these 2 DVB-T cards are correctly supported. Am I wrong ? I need another advice for antenna connection. The WinTV-NOVA-T (new model) have an antenna in AND an antenna out, so I'm thinking plug antenna in antenna in ;-) and put a cable between antenna out and the antenna in of WinTV-NOVA-T-500. Is this OK or do I really need two différents cables from the antenna with an amplifier ? A last question, with DVB-S, I'm needing two cards if I want to see two different channels because the channels could be on differents transponders. But is it true with DVB-T ? In others words: if I want to see 3 differents channels, do I really need 3 DVB-T tuners ? Thanks in advance. Éric.
