Wakeup methods
by Kartsa 13 Feb '08

13 Feb '08

What different wakeupmethods are there? I've built a few vdr boxes and I've been forced to use different motherboards and they do not all work the same. I've used nvram-wakeup on some and acpi on others when nvram-wakeup has not worked. Now I have Biostar 945GZ 775 SE with which I'm having trouble in starting on timers. What methods are people using with VDR? \\Kartsa

trouble changing Setup variables from Plugin.
by sundararaj reel 12 Feb '08

12 Feb '08

Hi, I change a VDR's setup setting from inside a plugin like: ::Setup.UseSmallFont = 0; ::Setup.Save(); // commit the change to setup.conf This is done only when the plugin's setting is changed. ( in the Store() ). When changes are accepted with OK, the setup.conf is written but it is immediately overwritten by a Setup.Save() call from cMenuSetupBase::Store(). How can I avoid this ? Is there a more orderly way to modify VDR's setup settings ? -- Sundararaj

CoreAVC + xineliboutput
by Per Mellander 11 Feb '08

11 Feb '08

I have done all the patching to xine-lib, ( patch from coreavc-for-linux-read-only + additional from happysat ). Then I've put CoreAVCDecoder.ax in /usr/lib/win32. I'm running VDR with xineliboutput. -P "xineliboutput --fullscreen --local=sxfe --audio=alsa --remote=none" What more do I have to do, ( extra arguments etc. ) to use CoreAVC? When I start VDR now I can't see any difference from using ffmpeg. .... load_plugins: plugin /usr/local/lib/xine/plugins/1.1.9/xineplug_dmx_nsv.so found load_plugins: plugin /usr/local/lib/xine/plugins/1.1.9/xineplug_decode_a52.so found video_out_xv: using Xv port 275 from adaptor NV17 Video Texture for hardware colour space conversion and scaling. video_out_xv: this adaptor supports the yuy2 format. video_out_xv: this adaptor supports the yv12 format. audio_alsa_out : supported modes are 8bit 16bit 24bit 32bit mono stereo (4-channel not enabled in xine config) (4.1-channel not enabled in xine config) (5-channel not enabled in xine config) (5.1-channel not enabled in xine config) (a/52 and DTS pass-through not enabled in xine config) xine: found input plugin : VDR (Video Disk Recorder) input plugin input cache plugin disabled xine: found demuxer plugin: DVD/VOB demux plugin video_out_xv: VO_PROP_INTERLACED(1) av_offset=0 pts video_out_xv: VO_PROP_ZOOM_X = 100 prebuffer=14400 pts prebuffer=14400 pts prebuffer=14400 pts prebuffer=14400 pts prebuffer=14400 pts video: synced early prebuffer=14400 pts prebuffer=14400 pts video: synced early prebuffer=14400 pts prebuffer=14400 pts video: synced early [h264 @ 0x11c43f0]non existing PPS referenced [h264 @ 0x11c43f0]decode_slice_header error [h264 @ 0x11c43f0]non existing PPS referenced [h264 @ 0x11c43f0]decode_slice_header error ....

trouble with asprintf
by Wolfgang Rohdewald 11 Feb '08

11 Feb '08

Hi, I am making the muggle plugin work with UTF-8 and have a little problem: since asprintf leads to segfaults if feeded with incorrect UTF-8 characters, I wanted to write a wrapper function which would then check the return value of asprintf. However I have a problem with the variable argument list and the va_* macros. Using gdb shows that, in the following example, in res=asprintf (strp, fmt, ap); ap is interpreted not as a list of arguments but as an integer. What is wrong here? BTW I am quite sure that vdr will sometimes coredump since it never checks the return value of asprintf. One suspect would be if somebody used a latin1 charset and had special characters like äöü in file names and then changes to utf-8 without converting file names to utf-8. If vdr then passes such a file name to asprintf, corrupted memory results. Might be difficult to debug remotely. #include <stdarg.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> int msprintf(char **strp, const char *fmt, ...) { va_list ap; int res; va_start (ap, fmt); res=asprintf (strp, fmt, ap); va_end (ap); } int main() { char *buffer; asprintf(&buffer,"test: %d\n",5); write(1,buffer,strlen(buffer)); free(buffer); msprintf(&buffer,"test: %d\n",5); write(1,buffer,strlen(buffer)); free(buffer); } -- Wolfgang

Old schedule / old timers
by UseNet-Posting-Nospam-74308-＠zocki.toppoint.de 11 Feb '08

11 Feb '08

Hello after upgrading from 1.4.3 to 1.4.5 i found that the schedule does not contain any old events. The current event is marked, but it is always the top of the list. What's the sense of tagging the current, when it's always at the top line and can't be scrolled "back"? That is very annoying because i sometimes found a programm worth to be timed, but the schedule entry is not available anymore. Too, long time ago "one time timers" were not deleted automatically. That has the advantage that if i found that "one time" worth to be recorded again, it was easy by editing that old "used" one time timer. Manually deleting the superflous "used" timers was much easier than to wait for EPG to show that event in future. How i can, user, select this featuers? - EPG history (at least) 4 hours, 1 day or 2 days "back" - Manually delete one timer timers/delete after 7 days/4 weeks Rainer

disable stk webcam
by serge pecher 11 Feb '08

11 Feb '08

Hello, I am trying to configure a new vdr streaming client. As 1.5.14 needs the multiproto driver, I did download it from Mercurial. When I compile I get an error about "stk-webcam" I found that one of the solutions was to disable this webcam in make menuconfig. My problem is that I can't find any driver looking to have something to do with stk-webcams. Can anyone tell me where to find the driver I have to disable ? I am using kubuntu 7.04 wit a 2.6.20 kernel Thanks a lot, Serge

Hi I run vdr-xine with the following syntax: xine --fullscreen -r anamorphic --hide-gui -V xv -A alsa -D --post vdr_video --post vdr_audio vdr://tmp/vdr-xine/stream#demux:mpeg_pes The "post" options seem to cause a continuous stream of the following messages: buffer usage: 62, 0, 7, 0, 0x94aa6f8 buffer usage: 101, 0, 6, 1, 0x94aa6f8 buffer usage: 86, 0, 7, 1, 0x94aa6f8 buffer usage: 75, 0, 7, 0, 0x94aa6f8 buffer usage: 95, 0, 7, 4, 0x94aa6f8 buffer usage: 85, 0, 6, 0, 0x94aa6f8 Is there some sort of debugging turned on? How do I stop these messages?
