dvd plugin - WAF
by Torgeir Veimo 30 Jul '07

30 Jul '07

The DVD plugin works reasonably well on a technical level, but my gf has a hard time operating it at times; it's hard to remember which keys are which when you only use it once in a while. Why is it not possible to use the normal cursor keys on the remote for the same functions in DVD playback mode, instead of using the numerical keys? -- Torgeir Veimo torgeir(a)pobox.com

Problems with cCutter::Active()
by Martin Prochnow 28 Jul '07

28 Jul '07

Hi, I call in my plugin in a loop (in a thread) cCutter::Active() every second. If I stop an editing process over the main menu entry, VDR crashes from time to time: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- *** glibc detected *** vdr: double free or corruption (!prev): 0x08407fc0 *** ======= Backtrace: ========= /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6[0xb7cff7cd] /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6(cfree+0x90)[0xb7d02e30] vdr(_ZN14cCuttingThreadD0Ev+0x31)[0x809b7a1] vdr(_ZN7cCutter4StopEv+0x39)[0x809aa89] vdr(_ZN7cCutter6ActiveEv+0x3c)[0x809ab7c] /home/nordlicht/src/vdr-1.4.7/PLUGINS/lib/libvdr-extrecmenu.so.1.4.5(_ZN12WorkerThread6ActionEv+0x2e)[0xb73dadbe] vdr(_ZN7cThread11StartThreadEPS_+0x2c)[0x80fce1c] /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libpthread.so.0[0xb7f0431b] /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6(clone+0x5e)[0xb7d6757e] ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- If I remove the cCutter::Active()-call from my thread, everything is fine.

[ANNOUNCE] VDR developer version 1.5.6
by Klaus Schmidinger 28 Jul '07

28 Jul '07

VDR developer version 1.5.6 is now available at ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.5.6.tar.bz2 A 'diff' against the previous developer version is available at ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.5.5-1.5.6.diff 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 1.5.5: - Fixed a buffer overflow in initializing the system character table (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - Updated the Russian OSD texts (thanks to Oleg Roitburd). - Fixed handling single byte characters >0x7F in Utf8ToArray() (thanks to Udo Richter). - Improved numdigits(), isnumber() and strreplace() (thanks to Tobias Bratfisch). - Fixed clearing color buttons in the 'curses' skin (thanks to Udo Richter). - Fixed a typo in the function name of cOsd::SetOsdPosition() and added a range check to it (thanks to Christoph Haubrich). - Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Improved cControl::Launch() to keep 'control' from pointing to uninitialized memory (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Made skipspace() an inline function (suggested by Tobias Bratfisch) and changed it to handle the most common case of 'no leading space' very fast, and avoid calling isspace(), which made the whole function a lot faster. - Fixed detection of Premiere NVOD channel links (thanks to anonymous). - Added a table of the used trick speed values to the description of cDevice::TrickSpeed() (suggested by Martin Dauskardt). - Added a missing 'P' to vdr.c's SHUTDOWNCANCELROMPT macro (reported by Marco Schlüßler). Have fun! Klaus

stuttering video on some channels
by Simon Baxter 24 Jul '07

24 Jul '07

I've recently added a dvb-c card, CI and Irdeto CAM to a system running vdr-1.5.5. All channels are encrypted. Some channels (about 20%) seem to have stuttering video. I only get a frame every 1/2 second or so - the video freezes on a frame for 1/2-1 second, then moves to the next frame etc etc. There are no messages in /var/log/messages or kernel messages in dmesg. The only difference in changing to one of the stuttering video channels is a sequence of "aMMMMMAMM" messages in the stdout logs from vdr. Below is the channels.conf. The channels 3 & 4 marked with '*' are examples of the problem channels. The only common thing between all problem channels, is they all have a separate PCR PID. But so do some of the non-problem channels! (symbol rates are XXXX'd out - as my provider protects these sorry) channels.conf: 1;Juice TV;T:602000:M64:C:XXXX:849:850:0:606:305:182:3:0 2;Sneak Peek;T:602000:M64:C:XXXX:4961:4964=eng:0:606:310:182:3:0 3;*Living;T:610000:M64:C:XXXX:513+129:651=eng:0:606:402:182:4:0 4;*UKTV;T:610000:M64:C:XXXX:515+131:653=eng:0:606:404:182:4:0 5;*National Geographic;T:626000:M64:C:XXXX:6031:6032=eng:0:606:603:182:6:0 6;MTV;T:626000:M64:C:XXXX:6041:6042:0:606:604:182:6:0 7;*Documentary;T:626000:M64:C:XXXX:6051:6052=eng:0:606:605:182:6:0 7;BBC;T:626000:M64:C:XXXX:6061:6062=eng:0:606:606:182:6:0 8;*CNN;T:626000:M64:C:XXXX:6071:6072=eng:0:606:607:182:6:0 Below is some of the logs in std-out -switch to channel: 1 SetPlayMode: 0 SetAudioChannelDevice: 0 SetPlayMode: 1 [vVMSetDigitalAudioDevice: 0 SetAudioChannelDevice: 0 aA]buffered 8.2 frames (v:15.8, a:8.2) frame: (0, 0)-(704, 576), zoom: (1.00, 1.00) -switch to channel: 2 SetPlayMode: 0 SetAudioChannelDevice: 0 SetPlayMode: 1 frame: (0, 0)-(720, 576), zoom: (1.00, 1.00) [vVMSetDigitalAudioDevice: 0 SetAudioChannelDevice: 0 A]buffered 8.5 frames (v:16.2, a:8.5) frame: (0, 0)-(544, 576), zoom: (1.00, 1.00) -switch to channel: 3 SetPlayMode: 0 SetAudioChannelDevice: 0 SetPlayMode: 1 frame: (0, 0)-(720, 576), zoom: (1.00, 1.00) [vVMMframe: (0, 0)-(544, 576), zoom: (1.00, 1.00) SetDigitalAudioDevice: 0 SetAudioChannelDevice: 0 aMMA]buffered 8.3 frames (v:29.3, a:8.3) buffered 9.2 frames (v:29.3, a:9.2) -switch to channel: 4 SetPlayMode: 0 SetAudioChannelDevice: 0 SetPlayMode: 1 frame: (0, 0)-(720, 576), zoom: (1.00, 1.00) [vVMframe: (0, 0)-(704, 576), zoom: (1.00, 1.00) MSetDigitalAudioDevice: 0 SetAudioChannelDevice: 0 aMMMMMAMM]buffered 8.2 frames (v:15.8, a:8.2) any ideas on this???

CAM-CI and multi-channel viewing + slow startup
by Simon Baxter 22 Jul '07

22 Jul '07

Hi. I have just got a TechnoTrend 1500-C budget with CI and Irdeto CAM working with vdr-1.5.5. I was hoping to be able to view and record multiple channels in a boquet/transponder (as I've previously done with a dvb-t card and freeview). All my channels under dvb-c are encrypted: Sky 1;T:594000:C0M64:C:XXXX:529:530:0:606:201:182:2:0 Juice 2;T:594000:C0M64:C:XXXX:577:578:0:606:204:182:2:0 When I try and record 1 and watch/record the other I get: Jul 21 22:37:46 media1 vdr: [5680] record /media/video/vdr/@J2_-_Our_Kind_of_Music_Press_'i'_for_more_information./200 7-07-21.22.37.50.99.rec Jul 21 22:37:46 media1 vdr: [5680] info: Recording started Jul 21 22:37:50 media1 vdr: [5680] switching to channel 1 Jul 21 22:37:51 media1 vdr: [5680] info: Channel not available!
