NordlichtsEPG-8b (DaLiMan)
by vdr＠daliman.de 11 Apr '06

11 Apr '06

Sorry, but my english is not good enough to translate that. Ein Fehler im NordlichtsEPG-8b-Plugin bewirkt daß die Beschriftung der roten Taste nicht vorhanden ist, wenn im SetupMenü "Umschalten mit OK" gewählt wurde. Das Ändern einer Codezeile in der Datei nordlichtsepg.c, ca. Zeile 157 " *if*(switchwithok)" korrigiert das. SetHelp(next?tr("Button$Now"):NULL,"<<",">>",tr("Button$Info")); muß in SetHelp(next?tr("Button$Now"):tmp,"<<",">>",tr("Button$Info")); geändert werden. Gruß, DaLiMan

SetUserId()
by Tobias Grimm 11 Apr '06

11 Apr '06

Hello! If VDR is started with the "-u USERNAME" option to make it change from root to a less privileged user, VDR first checks with getuid(), if the current UID is 0 / root. I suggest to change VDR to use geteuid() here to check for the "effective UID". Background: In the c't-VDR Debian package, VDR runs with it's own user "vdr". In order to allow VDR to restart the vdr daemon from within its commands menu, a small setuid wrapper is used. This wrapper only changes the effective UID to "root", not the real UID. Because VDR does not check the effective UID, it will not call SetUserid() and happily runs with root privileges, even if provided with a username in the "-u" option. The effectice UID is used to evaluate the privileges of a process to perform a particular action. So I think it is more correct to let VDR check this UID, when deciding whether to change to a different user or not. bye, Tobias

[PATCH] Tracklist for mp3 plugin using skin
by Holger Brunn 10 Apr '06

10 Apr '06

Hello list, this patch provides a list view on the tracklist when using the skin to display progress information. It tries to behave like in classic mode which succeeds save displaying progress while showing the list - I didn't find a way to merge menu and progress skin classes. Features like jumping and scrolling work the same way as in classic display. Any comments and suggestions on this are highly appreciated. Regards Holger PS: The patch _should_ apply to 0.9.14 as well

vdr crash during replay
by Jörg Wendel 10 Apr '06

10 Apr '06

Hi, I have a little problem when replaying recordings. Sometimes (seldom) vdr crashes during replay. I can't reproduce it, the same recording works fine when i play it next time. The problem occurs about once a week. The vdr Version is 1.3.45 with Bigpatch, With older versions it was the same, i don't know exactly with with version is begun. When i check the backtrace its always the same, the mi pointer cMarks::Get is wrong. The backtrace: #0 Get__6cMarksi (this=0x8621f10, Position=8780) at recording.c:1429 1429 if (mi->position == Position) (gdb) bt #0 Get__6cMarksi (this=0x8621f10, Position=8780) at recording.c:1429 #1 0x080a3546 in Action__10cDvbPlayer (this=0x87a77b8) at dvbplayer.c:692 #2 0x080ff884 in StartThread__7cThreadP7cThread (Thread=0x87a77c4) at thread.c:244 #3 0xb7ee30ba in pthread_start_thread () from /lib/libpthread.so.0 (gdb) list 1424 } 1425 1426 cMark *cMarks::Get(int Position) 1427 { 1428 for (cMark *mi = First(); mi; mi = Next(mi)) { 1429 if (mi->position == Position) 1430 return mi; 1431 } 1432 return NULL; 1433 } (gdb) p mi $1 = (cMark *) 0x31 (gdb) p *mi Cannot access memory at address 0x49 (gdb) p Position $2 = 8780 Tanks and Greetings Jörg Wendel

FF-card and AC3
by Antti Hartikainen 10 Apr '06

10 Apr '06

I don't know when this has broken, or is it even VDR related.. My FF-card was without signal at winter and i've been using only budget-card that time (FF-card as SPDIF and tv out only).. Now i put signal back to FF-card and noticed that Dobly Digital audio tracks doesn't work (with budget they work fine, using FF-card as SPDIF and tv output only). I got external decoder, and it says only PCM (and no sound) when selecting DD-soundtrack. When watching same channel with budget card, Dolby soundtrack works fine. Firmware is F62623 (test-av 1.34) and driver is v4l-dvb from mercurial few weeks ago.
