softdevice undefined symbol dts_frame
by Leo Márquez 01 Jun '05

01 Jun '05

Well, finally I have obtained vdr with softdevice build from source. Now when I start vdr with: ./vdr -P "softdevice -vo=dfb:" I get: vdr: ./PLUGINS/lib/libvdr-softdevice.so.1.3.24: undefined symbol: dts_frame I think I'm near the end of the way... -- Salutacions, Leo Márquez [ Enginyeria del Software / Internet ] [ Calidae - www.calidae.com ] [ Himalaya Servers - www.himalayaservers.com ]

01 Jun '05

I am currently testing VDRAdmin-0.97-AM3.2 and noticed that the recording summaries are blank when using vdr-1.3.25. Has anyone already generated a patch to fix this? Best Regards,

firmware does not load
by Leo Márquez 01 Jun '05

01 Jun '05

Hi!, I have two dvb cards: Hauppauge Nexus-s dvb-s FF Terratec Cinergy 1200 dvb-t budget The two card have the save chipset. I see in lspci: 0000:00:13.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7146 (rev 01) 0000:00:14.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7146 (rev 01) But when the system starts only load the dbv-t firmware. dmesg: DVB: registering new adapter (Terratec Cinergy 1200 DVB-T). DVB: registering frontend 0 (Philips TDA10046H DVB-T)... The problem comes with the nexus-s. dmesg says: dvb-ttpci: could not load firmware, file not found: dvb-ttpci-01.fw dvb-ttpci: usually this should be in /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware dvb-ttpci: and can be downloaded here http://www.linuxtv.org/download/dvb/firmware/ I'm downloaded the firmware and all of this revisions and have put in the same place that the dvb-t firmware (/usr/lib/hotplug/firmware). The file dvb-ttpci-01.fw exists. I also have tried the /lib/firmware folder to put the firmware but the error continues. Any ideas to solve this problem? Thanks. Leo

Hi, I'm having a few problems getting VDR to work with dxr3 version 0.2.2 (and others). When I attempt to start vdr I get an error message stating... "vdr: dxr3abstractiondevice.c:78: cDxr3AbsDevice::cDxr3AbsDevice(): Assertion 'm_fdVideo >= 0' failed. Aborted." No addition errors are reported in /var/log/messages The last message is "adv717x.o: Configuring for PAL" Any suggestions would be greatly recieved Steve Marshall

VDR Stability
by Adrian P Challinor 01 Jun '05

01 Jun '05

I have used VDR successfully for about 18 months now, but in the last 2 months found that stability has gone completely out of the window. It started when I tried to get the vdrsync code working to burn dvd's (never successful). I have a Pentium P4, 2.4Ghz, 512 MB Ram, 2 x 120 GB IDE disks, with an ASUS motherboard. Cards are a TT-FF DVB-T and a Nebula DVB budget card. I had so many problems after I did a few kernel changes that I reverted to rebuilding the system from scratch. I was working on linux 2.6.4, but listening to the list I upgraded to 2.6.11 on the rebuild. Things have not got better. It is impossible to record anything from the budget card, which is VDR's preferred card. I get so many errors with skipped bytes to sync to a TS packet it is unwatchable. The recording makes old VCR's look good. Funny this, because the DVBT enabled television is just fine. I tried recording just of the TT-FF card. OK, I can only record one signal at a time, but at least it will be stable, right? Wrong. It's still unstable. For example: May 30 22:50:22 vdr vdr[8931]: timer 1 (1 2240-0045 'Total Recall') set to event Mon 30.05.2005 22:50-00:35 'Total Recall' May 30 22:54:11 vdr vdr[8935]: channel 1 (BBC ONE) event 22:50 'Total Recall' status 4 May 30 23:03:38 vdr vdr[8935]: channel 3 (BBC THREE) event 23:00 'Ideal' status 4 May 30 23:07:45 vdr vdr[8991]: ERROR: unknown picture type '5' May 30 23:07:46 vdr vdr[8991]: ERROR: unknown picture type '4' May 30 23:11:01 vdr vdr[8931]: connect from 127.0.0.1, port 47508 - accepted May 30 23:11:01 vdr vdr[8931]: closing SVDRP connection May 30 23:16:50 vdr vdr[8991]: ERROR: unknown picture type '5' May 30 23:18:30 vdr last message repeated 5 times May 30 23:18:51 vdr last message repeated 2 times May 30 23:21:02 vdr vdr[8931]: connect from 127.0.0.1, port 43811 - accepted May 30 23:21:02 vdr vdr[8931]: closing SVDRP connection May 30 23:25:15 vdr vdr[8991]: ERROR: unknown picture type '5' May 30 23:25:15 vdr vdr[8991]: initiating emergency exit May 30 23:25:15 vdr vdr[8991]: ERROR: unknown picture type '4' May 30 23:25:15 vdr vdr[8991]: initiating emergency exit May 30 23:25:15 vdr vdr[8991]: ERROR: unknown picture type '5' May 30 23:25:15 vdr vdr[8991]: initiating emergency exit May 30 23:25:16 vdr vdr[8931]: emergency exit requested - shutting down May 30 23:25:16 vdr vdr[8931]: timer 1 (1 2240-0045 'Total Recall') stop May 30 23:25:16 vdr vdr[8931]: saved setup to /root/vdr/setup.conf May 30 23:25:16 vdr vdr[8931]: exiting May 30 23:25:16 vdr vdr[8931]: emergency exit! My recording stops in the middle with an unknown picture type. At this point, nothing I do other than reboot will restore VDRAdmin (probably the most important feature of VDR IMHO). I have tried VDR 1.3.25, I have reverted to 1.3.20. I have taken the latest versions of firmware, I have reverted to those that came with the card. Am I alone in thinking that, for anyone who wants to actually watch TV, the answer is a SKY+ box. Please, god forbid it should come to that. What am I doing wrong here? HELP !

Hi Peter, ok, if so, that's good to hear, then at least for me it's worth waiting a bit for that, although I would have been of course very curious to try it already. Lucian

Re: How to play vdr recordings on your phone
by Ed 31 May '05

Ed wrote: Clipped from http://www.pvrguide.no-ip.com/bbs/index.php?showtopic=4959 If you have a nice new mobile phone there is a good chance it supports 3pg video files. For example the Nokia 6320. Follow these steps to transfer a vdr recording to your phone. Lets face it - it will impress your mates when you watch tv on your mobile (Sorry to all the linux fans. This uses a windows pc for the transfer and processing so you need to copy your files off to that pc using samba shares or winscp) To make the conversion work you will need codec drivers to see the video and hear the audio. The easiest way to get everything you need is to download the ffdshow codec set. Get a copy of PVAStrumento and run it. Click on the file browse button "..." Select vdr file (you can select multiple files if recording is split) Select MAKE PS Use all default settings except set packet size to 2048 If you are getting the output from this program split into seperate files then take out the 3 options that say 'split if .......' in video and audio. This may not be a good idea as the video or audio format has changed during the recording. Change the file name and take away the starting '\' otherwise the output file is going to be on the root of your C: drive. Hit start (this takes just few minutes but some people have said it looks like it freezes at about 90% and waits for 10 minutes) Now get a copy of VirtualDub-MPeg2 (note it has to be the MPEG2 version not the standard version) click on file and open and select the MPEG file you just created. You need to set one option. Click on video / compression and select the codec for compression (eg ffdshow codec) select save as AVI (This takes about the same time as the recording) If it errors out during the encode with an error about bad frames - run it again but select options and debug and tell it not to stop encoding. and for the final step you need the Nokia Media player. Note if you have installed the cd that comes with your nokia phone that gives you the suite of tools you will probably already have this installed. Click on file and open. select your new avi file. press STOP as it will start playing it. click on file and save as select '3gp video files' as the type of file and select the 'no size limit' and the screen size of your mobile phone for example for a nokia you would use 128x96 select the location and give it a name. (this step takes about the same time as the recording) Once this file has been created you can transfer to your phone memory and watch. This may not be the fastest method (or give the best quality) but I have to start somewhere. Feel free to comment if you know of better tools or better settings.

Hi! To compile the femon plugin (0.9.0) with VDR and stuttering patch I have included a version number into the stuttering patch that is used in the femon-stuttering patch. http://toms-cafe.de/vdr/download/vdr-stuttering-1.3.22+version.diff http://toms-cafe.de/vdr/download/femon-0.9.0-stuttering.diff The stuttering patch is originally downloaded from http://vdrportal.de/board/thread.php?postid=289928#post289928 It is needed for the analogtv plugin and works with VDR-1.3.25 too.
