[ANNOUNCE] vdr-span-0.0.4
by Christian Leuschen 20 Mar '07

20 Mar '07

Hi, I uploaded the fourth version of the SpAn-plugin. It can be found at http://lcr.vdr-developer.org/ Changelog: 2007-03-19: Version 0.0.4 - Changed the way PCM16-providers interact with SpAn (all providers must adapt the changes) - thx to Stefan Huelswitt for the suggestions and support. Only really visualized data is now being processed by the FFT, resulting in the positive side-effect that the CPU load of SpAn is slightly decreased. As to that change the define SPAN_SET_PCM_DATA_ID has now changed either to "Span-SetPcmData-v1.1" - Updated the patches for mp3, cdda, graphlcd. - Thanks to Morone there is no patch needed for his latest music-plugin = "The Amazing Plugin Formerly Known As Mp3ng" (TAPFKAM). Kindly Christian Leuschen

[ANNOUNCE] vdr-filebrowser-0.0.6b
by Holger Brunn 19 Mar '07

19 Mar '07

Hello list, I'm glad to announce a new version of the filebrowser plugin, you can get it from http://www.stud.uni-karlsruhe.de/~uqg8/vdr/filebrowser/vdr-filebrowser-0.0.… This version fixes a really stupid mistake that might freeze your vdr after executing commands in the background, so feel encouraged to upgrade. Changelog: - Now allowing comments and empty lines in config files (thanks to Tobias Grimm for providing a patch) - Fixed possible lockup while doing housekeeping (thanks to Christian Jacobsen) - Fixed crash on malformed entries in config files - Fixed crash on huge output strings - now the buffer is emptied if its size exeeds 1MB, more renders vdr unresponsive (pointed out by Ronny Kornexl) Your comments, bug reports and patches would be appreciated, regards Holger

Mailing List Etiquette
by Clemens Kirchgatterer 19 Mar '07

19 Mar '07

This is the 'official' and updated vdr-mailing-list-etiquette-reminder. Please take this as a serious advice. Take the time to read it, especially if you are new to mailinglists in general. E-mail formatting ================= Mailing list email should fit the following criteria: DO == * Trim quoted material to the minimum needed to clarify what you're talking about. * Add a blank line _before_ and _after_ each quote for better readability. * Make sure you are attributing material to the correct person (i.e. make sure the "On 19/07/2002, Joe Bloggs said:" is correct) * Write your responses _after_ the quoted text, not before. If your mail client makes it difficult to do this, get a new one. * Make sure lines are wrapped at maximum 76 characters (to fit an 80 character wide screen), even if the text had been quotet several times. * Use the correct number of ">" characters at the start of each quoted line. * Set your mail client to "english headers" to avoid subjects like: "AW: Antwort: Re: AW: AW: AW: Re: Some Topic allready trunkated" If you see one, don't just add another "Re:" but remove all "AW:" and other chained "Re:". * Use a descriptive subject! A message titled "A small wish" doesn't tell what it is about. Better use something like "should do xyz" or "crashes when doing xyz". * If the topic of the thread changed/degrades meanwhile, change the subject too. That means: Before you start to answer, have a look into the subject your are going to reply to. For example use: New topic [WAS] old topic * Always write one separate message per topic. some people (especially those who matter) might not read mixed-up and lengthy threads. * Start a new thread when posting a new subject. * Make emails as short as possible whilst keeping them comprehensible. Don't ===== * Don't post in either HTML-only or in Text and HTML. If your mail client doesn't support this, change it. * Don't top post. * Don't give a one line answer having quoted the whole post. * Don't use a too long signature. Approx. 4 lines should always be enought. * Don't reply where you should have started a new thread. This means, make sure that you're not responding to an existing posting. Just changing the subject header and deleting any quoted text is NOT enough, because the message's header will still contain references to other messages. * Don't break threads by sending a new mail, where you should have replied. * Don't test post. Send your test posts to "echo(a)fu-berlin.de" or similar reply machines. * Don't use lengthly disclaimers. If not possible, use a freemail account. * Don't quote disclaimers and other footers. General Etiquette ================= This can really be summed up in one phrase - 'be polite'. Allways use your 'Real Name' when posting to mailinglists or newsgroups. If you think something is off-topic, don't reply to the list although you may want to send a short and *polite* note to the person privately telling them which list would be more appropriate; don't just say - "that is OT here". Before asking a question, please Have a look at the mailing list archives at http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/vdr/ If someone flames or trolls the list, don't reply - it wastes everyones bandwidth and time. Don't reply to spam which gets through to the list - just ignore it when it does. Resources ========= * The ultimate guide to most matters to do with email etiquette is RFC-2822 which can be found at: ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc2822.txt * A german site set up by some usenet-people, who take it even more serious with netiquette. http://learn.to/quote

Is GrabImage only for PAL resolution when using FF cards?
by Stone 19 Mar '07

19 Mar '07

I noticed that when the screenshot plugin starts, it grabs a PNM image to /dev/null, but the resolution is not right. Fory my system, everything should be in NTSC resolution. How is vdr getting 768x576 for the capture screen resolution? I would like this to be 720x480 instead. Mar 18 21:04:26 sid vdr: [4336] starting plugin: screenshot Mar 18 21:04:26 sid vdr: [4336] grabbing to PNM 100 768 576 Mar 18 21:04:26 sid vdr: [4336] grabbed image to /dev/null Best Regards.

plugin errors with vdr 1.5.1
by anthony kelly 18 Mar '07

18 Mar '07

Hi I don't know if this is useful. I could not compile many plugins with 1.5.1 until I made the following change in ./include/vdr/osdbase.h, in "class cOsdObject" I moved "bool needsFastResponse;" from private to public scope. Then most of my plugin probs went away. Don't have the faintest idea what I am doing so you can ignore/use if you wish. cheers Anthony Kelly

vdr-1.5.1: Interface race
by s.huelswitt＠gmx.de 18 Mar '07

18 Mar '07

Hi, there is a race condition while terminating vdr. Early in the shutdown process the Interface class is deleted. If a signal is raised after that point, the signal handler will call Interface->Interrupt() which is allready deleted. Regards. -- Stefan Huelswitt s.huelswitt(a)gmx.de | http://www.muempf.de/

Did you make sure that > you compiled softplay with the same ffmpeg version like the softdevice? Yes. just did a make clean-plugins, make plugins. This is with old (vdr-1.2.1) and new recordings. My current ffmpeg revision is 8428. Will test some older like 7852 too. -- Stefan Lucke

vdr doesn't recognise some remote keys when using LIRC
by Torgeir Veimo 18 Mar '07

18 Mar '07

I'm using a lirc setup with inputlircd daemon with a hauppauge remote on a dvb card. Everything works with the remote plugins using /dev/ input/eventX, but I'm trying to share the remote with several applications. For some reason when trying to learn keys with LIRC, when I'm running the inputlircd daemon, VDR refuses to react to them. I can see the keys being interpreted properly with irw. Does anyone know why this can be? -- Torgeir Veimo torgeir(a)pobox.com
