The only solution which works reliable is to disallow shutdown when a recording is active. Bye Helmut

Problem with programming timer on TELE 5
by Matthias Fechner 11 Dec '06

11 Dec '06

Hi I have TELE 5 now on number 12 (moved with the VDR channel editor to this place). But if I try now to programm a timer in the following way: Menu -> Program -> red button I see on channel 609 TELE 5 and not 12 TELE5 The line in channel.conf is: TELE 5:12480:vC34:S19.2E:27500:1535:1536=deu:38:0:51:133:33:16387 What is wrong here?

restoring OSD after Menu close (feature request)
by Gerhard Steiner 10 Dec '06

10 Dec '06

Hello, I found a small inconsequence in the osd handling. when playing a recording and pressing e.g. PAUSE a small OSD is displayed. After pressing MENU, the menu is display. Everything is correct. If the menu is closed now, the small OSD is not shown again, while the status is still the same (paused). Normally I would suppose, that the small OSD is shown again. This should also happen for the bigger OSD info window. And maybe also for other plugins (e.g. clock)? Am I right?

vdr shutdown handling / streamdev plugin
by Jörg Wendel 10 Dec '06

10 Dec '06

Hello, a question about the 'new' vdr shutdown handling implemented a few versions ago. Every time i connect a client to the streamdev plugin the log is full of these message: Nov 14 14:26:42 linvdr vdr: [8480] streamdev-server: no translation found for 'Streaming busy, can't shutdown' in language 1 (Deutsch) Nov 14 14:27:13 linvdr last message repeated 31 times Nov 14 14:27:19 linvdr last message repeated 6 times This is the code i found in the streamdev plugin: cString cPluginStreamdevServer::Active(void) { if (cStreamdevServer::Active()) return tr("Streaming busy, can't shutdown"); return 0; } I know, it's bescause of the missing translation ;) But why vdr call this so often, isn't it only required if the vdr is going to shutdown? Even without the log message, at first view it looks like unnecessary load? Regards Jörg

Mplayer Frontend for xineliboutput?
by Dave 09 Dec '06

09 Dec '06

Is there any way to use Mplayer as the frontend to xineliboutput? This might be a stupid question, but the a/v sync problems are unacceptable with the existing front end vdr-sxfe, unless someone has a way to get xine-lib 1.1.1 to compile with xvmc support (1.1.2++ apparently introduced the a/v sync issues or so I read?) Otherwise xineliboutput works well.

Hi! I was thinking of being able listening to FM-radio on my VDR-box, but it looks like most of the cards that is available around herer i based on th Philips saa713x chip - is that supported by the analogtv plugin? And, can I stream analog TV (radio-)channels using the srtemadev-plugin to a VDR-client? Thanks for any answers, Lars Fredriksson

Record a channel without displaying?
by Michael McQuillan 08 Dec '06

08 Dec '06

> Playback was one of the alternate solutions mentioned in the Wiki. The other idea was to install the streamdev-server plugin. > When configuring it to offer suspend mode you will get a new mainmenu entry labeled "Suspend Live TV". Selecting it will display a still picture. Thanks very much Frank, I hadn't considered the Streamdev route, so have now tried that and it does the job to a certain extent. I get the same issue with that as I do with launching playback in advance also though. When the timer starts the Suspend Picture is removed or the recording playback is terminated to start the recording which then suffers from the continual restarts, so I am still in the position that I have to be present to start a recording and re-force the suspend mode or start playback after the timer starts. How can I narrow down what is causing the playback/suspend mode to be terminated? Michael
