vdr with control plugin and osd
by Sebastian Dellit 03 Feb '08

03 Feb '08

Hello vdr readers, I use the VDR with the e-tobi sources. To access the OSD I install the control-plugin. When I start the vdr manually all works fine, I can use the OSD e. g. on tty1. When I use the start-stop script from the installer I can't access the OSD. The options for the control plugin are correct but the start-stop-script hide the text OSD on tty1. :-( Is there are possibility to use the script with the control plugin? -- Best regards Sebastian ICQ: 264706583 | MSM: sebo(a)blinzeln.de | Skype: sebo_de | Yahoo: de_sebo E-Mail: sebo(a)blinzeln.de | Web: www.blindzeln.de

[Announce] vdr-fritzbox-0.0.11
by Joachim Wilke 02 Feb '08

02 Feb '08

Dear Fritz!Box- and VDR-Users, a new version of the Fritz!Box Plugin is available at http://joachim-wilke.de/index.htm?alias=vdr-fritz - - - The Fritz!Box Plugin connects to your Fritz!Box to inform you about incoming calls. The plugin can automatically mute or pause VDR when a call comes in. Via VDR's main menu you can browse your Fritz!Box phone book, the call lists and initiate calls out of all lists. - - - The last changes are: 2008-02-02: Version 0.0.11 - fixed the "#96*5*"-code in README.de (reported by Hans Jürgen [22]) - fixed request-URL of das-oertliche.de (patch provided by Reinhard [11]) - now always unlocking FritzBoxMutex even when an exception is thrown - fixed wrong logging messages in fritzfonbuch.c claiming to be from calllist.c - an error message is now shown, if the phonebook is not read yet - replaced gethostbyname with threadsafe function getaddrinfo in cTcpClient - improved timing cHttpClient::Read() - simplified socket read in cOertlichesFonbuch::ResolveToName() - now reading country- and regioncode from Fritz!Box; this removes the setup option "Country Code" Set up your location in the Fritz!Box (navigate to "Einstellungen -> Telefonie -> Internettelefonie -> Erweiterte Einstellungen") (thanks to Reinhard [11] for the hint to this option) - now normalizing number when doing a lookup to dasoertliche.de (reported by Reinhard [11]) - - - Regards, Joachim.

What is H264 Spatial Direct Mode?
by Morfsta 02 Feb '08

02 Feb '08

Hi, I see a lot of channels that are not supported in VDR because of unsupported spatial direct mode in FFMPEG. This has probably been covered before (mostly in German!) but Reinhard could you explain what is spatial direct mode and why is it currently not covered in FFMPEG. Is it quite complex to code up? Do you know if there are any plans to support it? Thanks

Freeview Replay aka TV-Anytime patch
by Dave P 02 Feb '08

02 Feb '08

There was a discussion here last year about implementing support for Freeview Replay, the cut-down version of TV-Anytime (ETSI TS 102 323) broadcast in the UK. I've now produced a patch which implements the low-level support needed for Freeview Replay. It captures the series and item CRIDs and stores the information in epg.data and channels.conf. If anyone is interested in taking this forward and building high-level functions to make use of the data, the patch is at http://www.pickles.me.uk/vdrtva-0.0.1.tar.gz The patch was prepared against vdr-1.5.13. -- Dave

Thanks, but it seems you had a problem which was somewhat different than mine. This are the last log entries before VDR segfaults: ERROR: FreeType: error during FT_Render_Glyph 32, 3 ERROR: FreeType: error during FT_Render_Glyph 32, 3 ERROR: FreeType: error during FT_Render_Glyph 32, 3 > I cant remember if I posted my success on the list but that should > have been a few months ago maybe. Yeah, you did. Unfortunately for Debian lenny/sid there is no update available. - Jan > On Wed, Jan 30, 2008 at 02:49:05PM > +0100, Jan Willies wrote: >> Hi, >> >> I get segfaults when trying to start a vdr version with freetype fonts support.

newbie question(s)
by Theunis Potgieter 31 Jan '08

31 Jan '08

I went through the online manual at www.linuxtv.org/vdrwiki, in search of explanation of why certain keys presses appears. I'm using vdr-1.5.12 If I watch live TV and press the OK button, it will show the current/next in the info bar. By pressing Left/Right the information displayed disappears and the only way to get it back is by pressing Menu followed by OK again. Is this a bug or is it fully implemented by a plug-in? Is there any documentation of the acronyms used for example VPS and explanation? I have a single budget card: 02:0c.0 Network controller: Techsan Electronics Co Ltd B2C2 FlexCopII DVB chip / Technisat SkyStar2 DVB card (rev 02) with an IR usb receiver: Bus 003 Device 002: ID 147a:e02d Formosa Industrial Computing, Inc. I use the vdr-remote plugin for using the IR remote control. I couldn't map the channel +/- keys or volume +/- keys to the remote as they appear to register as up/down keys that was already defined by remote.confand also dead keys. Should I rather try out lirc or does somebody know of how to resolve incorrect/dead keys? I also tried doing a screen capture using vdr-xine-0.8.0 with xine-lib-1.1.8, which failed with the following output: === CLEAR(-4.4) === CLEAR(-4.5) --- CLEAR(-4b) vdr: osdflush: n: 2, 20.3, timeout: 0, result: 0 AFD changed from -2 to -1 bad_frame AFD changed from -2 to -1 bad_frame vdr: osdflush: n: 1, 9.7, timeout: 0, result: 0 vdr: osdflush: n: 20, 203.1, timeout: 1, result: 2 vdr: osdflush: n: 11, 116.0, timeout: 0, result: 0 vdr: osdflush: n: 1, 12.0, timeout: 0, result: 0 vdr: osdflush: n: 2, 23.6, timeout: 0, result: 0 vdr: osdflush: n: 2, 18.9, timeout: 0, result: 0 vdr: osdflush: n: 1, 13.3, timeout: 0, result: 0 abort: xine.c:1996: xine_get_current_frame: Aborting.

Disabling Xineliboutput video mode switching
by Samuli Seppänen 31 Jan '08

31 Jan '08

Hi all, I have a problem with Xineliboutput's OSD. In low resolution videos it look doesn't fit the screen. It seems as if Xineliboutput actually switches the resolution of the (VGA) monitor. So how do I force Xineliboutput to first scale the _video_ to screen (not vice versa) and then put OSD (unscaled) on top of that? Thanks in advance, Samuli
