This can cause quie a fuzz if you link system directories. I even have this when symlinking /cdrom [/dev/cdrom] for access to vdr files on CDROM. Also here it's extremely advisable to have a dummy file at the mount point location to have vdr keeping his fingers off the mount point. Just a suggestion: a sensible means of access rights would be a good think for VDR to do. It's very critical to setup a system using externally stored vdr files when VDR kills every empty directory mercyless. regards Peter

VDR to Xine playback -- no Audio?
by mlists 17 Oct '06

17 Oct '06

I'm running VDR 1.4.3 with hoochster's patches. I've install xine but I'm not getting any audio. When vdr starts up and then xine -- I'm getting this: vdr-xine: Client connecting ... vdr-xine: Client connected! [VM]buffered 50.2 frames (v:50.2, a:0.0) buffered 51.5 frames (v:51.5, a:0.0) Is this what I should see? Norm

stable version of burn
by Leo Márquez 17 Oct '06

17 Oct '06

Hi, I like to know what version of the burn plugin you recommend to me. I have tested without exit the cvs and vdr-burn-0.1.0-pre21.tgz The problem is the same, vdr crash with a boost issue related (I think) I have been seen the 0.0.5 version. It's too old this branch? Which version you have installed and running without problems? My vdr is 1.4.3 Thanks.

VDR (xine?) playback
by Boguslaw Juza 16 Oct '06

16 Oct '06

Hi! I am looking for a best solution for live TV playback for VDR. I have PC with Celeron 2.26 GHz, 512 MB RAM, nVidia FX 5200, SkyStar2 and software MPEG2 by xine (vdr-xine 0.7.9). PC is connected do TV using SVideo TV-Out. Now I'm using xxmc driver for xine (nVidia hardware acc.) - playback is smooth, without jerking, but deinterlacing is low quality (both OneField and BOB are not ideal solution). CPU usage is about 10%. When I have tried xine xv driver with deinterlacing, picture was nice - clear and sharp, but the playback jerking - mostly in sports programs. CPU usage was about 30-40% So both solutions are not perfect. Are there any other solution? Maybe the xine should buffer some decomperessed frames? Are there any possibilities to set it? Im afraid, that only FF card will work beter... If I will decide to buy one, which one to choose? I have ony one PCI slot and one AGP slot (small barebone PC), so I can't install dxr3 card...

Hi, The burn plugins don't work for me and makes vdr crash. I have compiled the burn plugin with the boost-for-burn-1.33.0.tgz source inside buen plugins sources. The error I see in VDR (not daemon mode) is: terminate called after throwing an instance of 'boost::io::too_many_args' what(): boost::too_many_args: format-string refered to less arguments than were passed Avortat The last lines of dvd.log are: [burn] + growisofs -use-the-force-luke=tty -dvd-compat -Z /dev/hdd -V 'SABER Y GANAR~ ' -dvd-video /videoteca/v0/vdr-burn.SABER_Y_GANAR__.1ENKI5/DVDAUTHOR [burn] WARNING: /dev/hdd already carries isofs!

vdr-1.4.3-2.diff compile problem
by V Live 15 Oct '06

15 Oct '06

Upon patching vdr-1.4.3-2.diff to vdr-1.4.3-1 I first had to manually patch the vdr.c part of the patch; it did not patch cleanly. Also it would not compile unless I added an "}" on the very last line of "vdr.c" file. --------------------------------- Get your email and more, right on the new Yahoo.com

[ANNOUNCE] VDR maintenance patch 1.4.3-2
by Klaus Schmidinger 15 Oct '06

15 Oct '06

VDR maintenance patch 1.4.3-2 is now available at ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.4.3-2.diff This is a 'diff' against version 1.4.3-1 (which is the official version 1.4.3, patched with ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.4.3-1.diff). Small fixes to the officially released VDR versions will be first made available as "maintenance patches" in the Developer directory, so that they can be reviewed and tested before a new official release is published. So please apply the above patch and report whether it works (or if it causes any new problems). This version requires plugins to be recompiled. The changes since version 1.4.3-1: - Fixed clearing an event's Title, ShortText and Description in case the data comes from an external source. - Updated the Hungarian language texts (thanks to Guido Josten). - Fixed a possible crash if cPluginManager::GetPlugin() is called with a NULL pointer (thanks to Petri Hintukainen). - Fixed displaying the error log message in case an unknown plugin was requested in a key macro (thanks to Petri Hintukainen). - Keys from expanded key macros are now put into the front of the key queue to avoid problems if the queue is not empty at that time (based on a patch from Petri Hintukainen). - cKeyMacro now has an explicit counter for the number of keys it contains. - cRemote::PutMacro() now sets a lock while it expands the macro (thanks to Petri Hintukainen). - Fixed handling plugins from cRemote::PutMacro() and cRemote::CallPlugin() (based on a patch from Petri Hintukainen). - Increased the size of the key queue to avoid problems with long key macros. Have fun! Klaus

Recording video clips automatically with correct naming of recordings.
by Carsten Koch 15 Oct '06

15 Oct '06

I noticed today that Deluxe Music is labelling every song individually in the "now and next" EPG entries. I had been hoping such a feature would be provided by music channels. Congratulations to Deluxe for providing accurate program information. Would it not be extremely nice if one could ask VDR to record every song individually to a correctly named recording? I have not yet checked whether the "now" EPG entry changes at the exact right moment. If it does, it should be easy to automatically create a timer entry for it and delete any older timer entry for the same channel. I wonder if they would mind. If they do, I guess they could provide slighly less accurate program information. I wonder if that could be easily fixed with noad. Carsten.
