cString operator= with same buffer
by Holger Brunn 26 Nov '05

26 Nov '05

Hello list, I'm wondering what should happen when assigning a cString to another where both have pointers to the same buffer? As of version 1.3.36, we first free it and duplicate it afterwards. That surely isn't intended, but how to deal with this? 1) Leave them pointing to the same buffer after operator= 2) Don't free the buffer, but duplicate it (that happens in vdr<1.3.36) Do you see good arguments for 1)? I only have one for 2), as you (I) expect to receive a new copy of cString's buffer you assinged from. And this cString's destructor will take care about freeing memory of the original buffer. Thanks for your comments, Holger (who feels ashamed to start a discussion about a one-line-patch :-)

How to display an OSD message from a thread?
by Christian Wieninger 25 Nov '05

25 Nov '05

Hi, I'm trying to display an OSD message from a separate thread within a plugin to indicate when some background action has finished. The message should pop up no matter if there's currently an OSD displayed or not. So SVDRP MESG is no solution, since this will only appear when leaving the OSD. I tried it with the new service interface. The thread calls a service of the plugin passing the message. The service itself calls Skins.Message(serviceData->type, serviceData->message); This works fine, but sometimes crashes VDR in cSkins::Message. I've found a way to reproduce it: When the main menu is displayed and the message pops up then pressing BACK while the message still is displayed crashes VDR. In this case the problem is that in cSkinDisplay::Current()->SetMessage(Type, NULL); cSkinDisplay::Current() is NULL. Don't know if this is a bug or just the result of my wrong usage ;-) Is there any other way to display a message from a thread? BR, Christian

Restricting bandwidth for a DVB device...
by Laz 25 Nov '05

25 Nov '05

Is there any way of restricting a DVB device within vdr so that it will never record more than one channel from the same mux/transponder? I have acquired a Nova-T USB second-hand, as in a USB 1.1 device which struggles to even stream one channel at a time. If there are concurrent recordings on this device from two different channels, they are both totally destroyed due to the lack of bandwidth! Just one channel is bearable, although still quite crap, so it would be good to be able to set a given device so that it will only ever do one recording at once. Is this at all possible currently? Does anyone have an experience of the newer Nova-t USB2 devices? Do they work reliably and for several channels at once? This is as an additional device for an Epia system with a single PCI slot :-s Cheers, Laz

hi i'm using 1.3.34 and I wanted to stream some video I see with vdr to my network..I tried streamdev plugin but it doesn't compile. Is there any solution that works with my vdr version?

Hi. Is anyone using this plugin with a recent (1.3.33 +) version? I'd like to use it with an Amino box. Would it be supported? Would it work with Multicast?? any ideas?

detach receiver?
by Patrick Fischer 24 Nov '05

24 Nov '05

after hours of testing, I don't understand the methods of the receiver. Maybe I'm totally wrong. I need: -a method to receive the PES of a given VPID of a Channel -the method should be closed if the VPID of the Channel can't be reached any more In my opinion this is a receiver! But this receiver will NEVER be detached unless vdr will shutdown. Independent from the Prio. I have tried -10 .... 90 unfortunately it will receive data is an other channel has the same VPID I have written a simple receiver: class cPTSReceiver : public cReceiver, cThread { protected: virtual void Activate(bool On); virtual void Receive(uchar *Data, int Length); virtual void Action(void); public: cPTSReceiver(cChannel* channel); bool isAttached(); private: char channelname[30]; bool isrunning; }; //---------cPTSReceiver-----------// cPTSReceiver::cPTSReceiver(cChannel* channel):cReceiver(0,PRIORECEIVER, channel->Vpid()) { dsyslog("created a new receiver for %s with prio %d",channel->Name(),PRIORECEIVER); strcpy(channelname,channel->Name()); channelAttachedTo = channel; } void cPTSReceiver::Activate(bool On) { // start your own thread for processing the received data isrunning = On; if (isrunning){ dsyslog("attach receiver to %s",channelname); } else dsyslog("detach receiver from %s!",channelname);//will never reached } bool cPTSReceiver::isAttached(){ return isrunning; } void cPTSReceiver::Receive(uchar *Data, int Length) {...do something...} At the moment I use a total crazy way. I give the receiver the device and the channel. Each time the receiver will Receive()data, I test if the Channel of my receiver and the channel of the device are on the same TSID and NID. If not, the user has changed the channel. But this way is very ugly. Klaus sad that the vdr will detach the receiver if the Prio is lower the -1. My Receiver didn't detach at anytime! Please help me 8-) Patrick

[ANNOUNCE] kvdrmon-0.4
by Bernd Juraschek 24 Nov '05

24 Nov '05

Hello, I've released version 0.4 of my kvdrmon KDE applet. This applet does some VDR monitoring visible in the KDE kicker. Changes: - Added some disk free space monitoring. This will show a usage indicator in the tray icon if disk space is low. - Minor bugs fixed You can download kvdrmon-0.4 and the needed VDR plugin vdr-kvdrmon-0.4 at http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=88863&package_id=1695… Gentoo users using the portage tree from gentoo.de can simply do emerge kvdrmon emerge vdr-kvdrmon (renamed ebuild!) Greetings, Bernd
