multiple soundtracks
by Tomas Prybil 05 Sep '05

05 Sep '05

Hi list. Since Klaus added the multiple sound stream feature i've not been able to use that for channels at Thor, mostly Canal+ distributed stuff. I have an example, Disney now have a new channel called Toon Disney. The channel autoadded itself to channels.conf and shows the following details: > Toon Disney;Telenor:11357:hC78:S1.0W:24500:521+8190:678=dan,679=fin,677=nor,676=sve:582:B00:3207:70:32:0 If I bring up tha audio menu it shows all four languages dan, fin, nor and sve. However if I choose either nor or sve the sound output becomes all silent. Could one kind soul please give me a hint how to start debug? BR /t

RE: [vdr] Compressing videos more than mpeg2

So I was thinking that you might have one more possibility of using "tcrequant" which is the name of the program. It requantizes MPEG stream. It reads MPEG2 stream and recompresses it by the factor you decide. But it doesn't decode the stream, it increases compression factor from frame backgrounds, and tries to keep the main subject (where the camera focus is) as original. By this way you could lose about 10% of disk space easily. Of course higher compression ratio is possible but.. Best regards, Jori

It also happens here with Firmware 261f and 2620 - but only in Transfer mode! and only on MPEG sound. With 261d it is no problem. > EPIA MII + DVB-S rev1.6 + Airstar2 + Cinergy T2 Looks like you use Transfermode on the Cinergy ;) I have tested a new FW from Werner and it seems to fix it.

vdr-1.3.31 - Wrong recording state after playback on cMenuRecordings
by Andreas Brachold 04 Sep '05

04 Sep '05

Hi, here a small patch avoid wrong recording state after playback on cMenuRecordings. Before this patch on cMenuRecordings new recordings always marked with "*" even if it was already played. Only a external trigged rescan of full video directory has this updated. Now with this patch is the recording state after playback on cMenuRecordings proper. And it reload only associated resume.vdr. Andreas BTW : Is there any chance that my patch for SVDRP/MOVC integrated, it completed only the listed SVDRP commands !? This function a missed for external channels editing. http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/vdr/2005-August/004512.html

valid summary.vdr file hangs vdr.
by Carsten Koch 04 Sep '05

04 Sep '05

The attached file hangs vdr >= 1.3.25 when I press the info button on the recording. The file was created by and works fine with vdr < 1.3.25. Carsten. "Lola rennt" Fernsehfilm D 1998 Berlin. Jetzt. Ein Sommertag, an dem eine ganze kurze Zeit über Liebe, Leben und Tod entscheidet. Lola und Manni sind Anfang 20 und ein Liebespaar. Manni jobbt als Geldkurier für einen Autoschieber. Doch heute läuft alles schief. Als er Kontrolleuren in der U-Bahn zu entwischen versucht, vergisst er die Plastiktüte mit 100.000 Mark. Ein Penner greift sich die Tüte mit dem Geld und verschwindet. In 20 Minuten will sein Boss das Geld abholen. Verzweifelt ruft Manni Lola an. Was soll er tun? Wenn er das Geld nicht auftreibt, wird er sterben. Lolas Hirn rast: 20 Minuten, um 100.000 Mark zu besorgen. 20 Minuten, um Mannis Leben zu retten. Da kommt Lola eine Idee. Sie stürzt aus dem Haus und läuft los. Durch die Straßen Berlins. "Lola rennt." Um ihr Leben, um Mannis Leben, um ihre Liebe - und um irgendwie und irgendwo Geld aufzutreiben. Während Lola versucht, von ihrem Vater, einem Bankdirektor, das Geld zu bekommen, dreht Manni fast durch: In seiner Verzweiflung erscheint ihm der Überfall eines Supermarkts als die einzige Rettung. Als Lola bei Manni ankommt, ist es zu spät. Ernst zögert sie, dann hilft sie ihm bei dem Überfall. Doch als sie mit dem Geld abhauen wollen, zerreißen Sirenen die Sommerluft. Scharfschützen der Polizei umstellen den Supermarkt. Und dann fallen Schüsse... ...und mit dem scheinbaren Ende beginnt das eigentliche Abenteuer. Der Film explodiert in einer leidenschaftlichen, faszinierend unvorhersehbaren Geschichte über die Liebe und die einzigartigen Momente, die das Leben für immer verändern können. Manchmal entscheiden eben nur Minuten über Leben und Tod. Mit einem pulsierend aktuellen Soundtrack, einer aufregend ungewöhnlichen Visualität und dem Tempo der Großstadt feiert "Lola rennt" den Triumph einer Liebe, die das atemberaubende Lebensgefühl der Spätneunziger einfängt. "Lola rennt" erhielt u. a. den Publikumspreis auf dem Filmfestival Sundance und den Bayerischen Filmpreis für die Produktion; Tom Tykwer wurde der Lubitsch-Preis für die Regie verliehen; "Lola rennt" wurde für den Oscar in der Kategorie "bester ausländischer Film" vorgeschlagen.
