Summary missing when using Text2skin
by C.Y.M 31 May '05

31 May '05

When using vdr-1.3.25, I cant seem to find the code in text2skin to display the recording summary properly. The summary just comes up blank. When I do not use text2skin, then it works just fine. The conversion of summary.vdr to info.vdr went fine. Can anyone give me a hint? Best Regards,

Lockup problem
by Jarmo Järvenpää 31 May '05

31 May '05

Dear list, I've got a linux 2.6 system which locks up (not respoding to keys, blank display - can't be sure if its a kernel panic) totally about twice a day. I've narrowed the problem either to em8300 driver itself or the vdr-dxr3 driver. Vdr is running nicely without dxr3 plugin and the system is stable more than a day :-) Vdr with the plugin, random lockups appear. Messages-log may say about ring buffer to be full near the lockup time, but not always. em8300 version 0.15.rc4 and vdr-dxr3 version 0.2.3-cvs20050528.tgz (I've tried some earlier versions too). I thought about creating a blank-screen and feeding it (instead of tv-picture) constantly to dxr3 and see if the lockups appear. The sources seem quite complicated, thus help will be appreciated ;-) BR, Jarmo

Recording format changed?
by Ronald Schaten 30 May '05

30 May '05

Hey... I have used vdr for almost three years now, and I must say that I'm very happy with it. But a few weeks ago, I upgraded from the stable to the developer-version (1.3.17, Debian-packages from e-tobi.net), and now I have a problem: tosvcd doesn't work with recordings of the developer-version. I use tosvcd to convert certain series to SVCD. I have collected many SVCDs over the years, and I wouldn't like to switch to DVDs at this moment. It seems as if the file-format of the recordings has changed between the stable and the developer-version, but I can't figure out the differences. And I fear that even if I knew the changes, I'm not C-hacker enough to fix tosvcd. Has anybody experienced the same problems? Did the file format really change between the versions? If yes, where can I find the differences (in which file)? I already posted my problem (including some log-output, but with german text) to the forum vdrportal.de (http://vdrportal.de/board/thread.php?threadid=33904), but it seems as if there's no solution in sight... :-( Thanks in advance! Ciao, Ronald. -- http://www.schatenseite.de

Bug in subchannel scan ?
by Karsten Müller 30 May '05

30 May '05

Hi Listies, today I subscribed to a movie on Premiere Direkt (currently there is a free movie for subscribers at http://www.premiere.de/gratis-film ) I tried to watch the movie and tuned to "Premiere Direkt 2". To my surprise the radio plugin showed its background picture as if it thought I tuned to a radio channel. I opened my channels.conf and found this: D 1 - 20|00:362000:C0M64:C:6900:0:0:0:0:245:133:3:0 D 1 - 20|30:386000:C0M64:C:6900:0:0:0:0:212:133:1:0 D 2 - 17|30:362000:C0M64:C:6900:0:0:0:0:240:133:3:0 D 2 - 20|00:362000:C0M64:C:6900:0:0:0:0:244:133:3:0 D 2 - 20|30:354000:C0M64:C:6900:0:0:0:0:211:133:17:0 D 3 - 20|00:362000:C0M64:C:6900:0:0:0:0:243:133:3:0 D 3 - 20|30:378000:C0M64:C:6900:0:0:0:0:210:133:4:0 D 4 - 20|00:362000:C0M64:C:6900:0:0:0:0:242:133:3:0 D 4 - 20|30:378000:C0M64:C:6900:0:0:0:0:209:133:4:0 D 5 - 20|00:362000:C0M64:C:6900:0:0:0:0:241:133:3:0 D 5 - 20|30:378000:C0M64:C:6900:0:0:0:0:208:133:4:0 which seems kinda strange to me. After some digging and zapping I actually found the movie at F1_Infokanal:362:M64:C:6900:3071:3072=deu,3073=deu;3075=deu:0:1801,1702,1722:244:0:0:1 Is there a (known) bug in automatic channel scans ? Maybe only subchannels are scanned wrong since all my other channels are working absolutely perfect. Does anybody know what's wrong there ? Thanks in advance best regards Karsten

Vdr and Parental Lock
by Sad 30 May '05

30 May '05

Hi, I'm planning to work back on the parental lock plugin that I've made loong time ago, and which doesn't work anymore on the last VDR version (by the way, congratulations to all vdr/plugin developer) I'm thinking of a way to "limit" the needed patches for such "options", and I wonder if there is no way to include one more field to the channels.conf, which would enable/disable the viewing of the channel (in locked mode). What I propose is to implement by myself this features (to the cChannel class) and I wonder if this could be implemented to the next VDR versions (not the full parental lock functions, but only the channels.conf field, reading functions and one little more function such as bool cChannels.IsLocked(), the rest of the parental lock implementation still under plugin form). I guess this should not break anything... @Klaus : Do you think it is possible? Sad

Upgrade 2.6.11 with VDR
by Rainer Zocholl 30 May '05

30 May '05

Using http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Debian_mit_2.6.9er_/_2.6.10er_Kernel_… _VDR_aufsetzen the upgrade was relatively painless. The gain of 2.6 is, that USB(DVB and Storage) is much better supported, and the DVB drivers including DVB-T are part of the kernel! Now let's wait if the box is stable now... A BIG disadavantage is the increase of boot time. Himt: There is no sensfull way back to 2.4.x and VDR!(2.4 allone as "emergency" works) if you try to "upgrade". You have to make new LIRC, modules etc. so it is strongly recomended to use a new disc for the new kernel and start from stratch. One probem is logged in dmesg: ACPI: Power Button (FF) [PWRF] apm: BIOS not found. apm: BIOS not found. NET: Registered protocol family 17 eth0: no IPv6 routers present lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, at major 61 lirc_serial: no version for "lirc_unregister_plugin" found: kernel tainted. lirc_serial: auto-detected active low receiver lirc_dev: lirc_register_plugin: sample_rate: 0 lp: driver loaded but no devices found Non-volatile memory driver v1.2 lirc_serial: auto-detected active low receiver lirc_dev: lirc_register_plugin: sample_rate: 0 APIC error on CPU0: 00(02) APIC error on CPU0: 02(02) APIC error on CPU0: 02(02) APIC error on CPU0: 02(02) APIC error on CPU0: 02(02) APIC error on CPU0: 02(02) APIC error on CPU0: 02(02) APIC error on CPU0: 02(02) APIC error on CPU0: 02(02) APIC error on CPU0: 02(02) APIC error on CPU0: 02(02) APIC error on CPU0: 02(02) APIC error on CPU0: 02(02) APIC error on CPU0: 02(02) APIC error on CPU0: 02(02) A reason to worry or is that just the new kind lirc indicates spurious interrupts?

[Dual card VDR - help !]
by jb＠lemaitrezor.com 30 May '05

30 May '05

Hello The list! I play with vdr since some months it's great and really gives motivations to understand how it works and maybe one day, start developping little plugins for it :) Anyway i'm not still fully happy with my config ;) : - 2 DVB-S cards : 1 FF Technotrend 1.6 + CI and one skystar2. - 1 Dual LNB + mini disceq, with simple output multiplier (my channels.conf only uses one LNB on this mini disceq, but disceq is activated in VDR) - 1 PCMCIA Module (Aston mediaguard Dual) with smartcard from canal+ It works fine now except that i still can't record a channel and seeing another at the same time. I have tryed many combinaisons with LNB Share and SoftCSA patch but with no success. So here are my questions : -> Can VDR share one CI with Multiple DVB Cards ? (I have heard he can) -> Is SoftCSA patch needed to make a multiple card system work ? -> Is LNB Share patch needed as i have only one LNB output ? -> Do you know a way to be sure that all the 2 cards are recognized by VDR ? (modules are loaded but i don't see LNBShare options in LNB Config) Sorry if my question is redundant Thanks jb
