VDR completely stuck - timers not recording
by Rantanen Teemu 11 May '05

11 May '05

Hi, this is the second time this happens for me. First time with vdr-1.3.22 + xine-network-0.7.2, now with vdr-1.3.23 + xine-network-0.7.3. What happens is that VDR gets completely stuck. Restarting xine does not bring picture back, and what's worst, VDR does not process timers (does not do recordings). All I could find on syslog was that at some point something (=xine?) got stuck and started producing ring buffer overflows (lots and lots of those). Then when it was time for first timer, this is what I could find: May 11 10:58:49 mewtwovdr vdr[22400]: ERROR: 10860 ring buffer overflows (2041680 bytes dropped) May 11 10:58:55 mewtwovdr vdr[22400]: ERROR: 13267 ring buffer overflows (2494196 bytes dropped) May 11 10:59:03 mewtwovdr vdr[20211]: ERROR: thread 5914642 won't end (waited 3 seconds) - canceling it... None of the timers were recording until I killed vdr (killall -9 vdr), killing/reconnecting xine did not produce any kind of picture. Event status changes were still processed, but nothing else (like pid-changes etc). Any ideas what could be the problem? I don't care if my picture gets stuck from time to time, but I wouldn't want to *ever* again see any of my timers failing... I am afraid but I don't think I'm able to reproduce the error (e.g. suspending xine does not make vdr to get stuck). Teemu

After reading what Peter wrote about 0.7.4 and rewinds, I guess I'll upgrade to 0.7.4 first to see if it has been fixed by itself :-) If not, I'll check these... Teemu

[ANNOUNCE] Channelscan Plugin 0.0.4
by tinconn＠virgilio.it 11 May '05

11 May '05

Hi a new plugin channelscan has been released. Channelscan uses a transponders .ini file from win project like prog-DVB software for create a channels.conf The homepage of the plugin is at http://www.kikko77.altervista.org goto download page for the channelscan-0.0.4.tar.bz2 archive --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- changelog: 2005-04-11: Version 0.0.4 - Channelscan is now faster because sets the filters for sdt, pat and pmt itself, so it now knows when scanning of a transponder is over.(idea from Luca Olivetti) (write by Thomas Bergwinkl) - It's now also possible to decide which service types (TV,Radio,NVOD) should be added (write by Thomas Bergwinkl) - it now checks if the dvb device, which does the scan, is able to provide the transponder. So no dvb-c/t devices will be selected for channelscan. (write by Thomas Bergwinkl) - fixed a bug, which crashed vdr if two transponders have the same polarization and almost the same frequency (write by Thomas Bergwinkl) - now take care of Setup.OSDHeigth (write by Thomas Bergwinkl) - added autorepeat for left/right buttons (suggested by Andrey Vlasov) (write by Thomas Bergwinkl) - added up/down to jump over 10 satellites (suggested by Andrey Vlasov) (write by Thomas Bergwinkl) - Add IT translation (by kikko77) *** A BIG THANKS TO Thomas Bergwinkl AND ALL BETA-TESTER FOR ALL NEW FEATURES *** --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please read the README before to use the plugin... Any feedback is appreciated. best regards kikko77

Softdevice + DirectFB + matrox G550 - problem
by anthony hornby 11 May '05

11 May '05

Hi All, I have DirectFb working properly on fedora core 3 with a 2.6.11 kernel. I can do a /usr/local/bin/mplayer test.mpg -vo dfbmga and get a crisp clear picture on my PAL TV. However when I run ./vdr -P"softdevice -vo dfb:mgatv" -P'remote - i /dev/input/event2' I get a black and white, flickering and badly distorted picture on the TV. What could be the problem? All tips on where to start looking appreciated. Regards Anthony -------- Forwarded Message -------- From: anthony hornby <anthony.hornby(a)cdu.edu.au> Reply-To: anthony.hornby(a)cdu.edu.au, Klaus Schmidinger's VDR <vdr(a)linuxtv.org> To: Klaus Schmidinger's VDR <vdr(a)linuxtv.org> Subject: [vdr] Softdevice + vidix + matrox G550 - is this possible? Date: Thu, 05 May 2005 08:33:07 +0930 Hi, I want to set up my VDR to use softdevice and use the output of my Matrox G550 card. I have got the latest CVS for softdevice, directFB, DFB++, vidix and ffmpeg. Am running Fedora core 3 with the latest 2.6.11 series kernel. Have built all successfully. Now I want to keep the second head on my G550 running X (a gnome desktop on the local monitor on the box is handy) but also have accelerated output on the tv-out. I think this means I am restricted to using vidix - is this correct? Anyway when I try to use VDR with sofdevice and vidix with -P" softdevice -vo vidix:" I always get the following: console ******* [root@mmc vdr-1.3.23]# ./vdr -P" softdevice -vo vidix:" -P'remote - i /dev/input/event2' [softdevice] processing args [softdevice] argv [0] = softdevice [softdevice] argv [1] = -vo [softdevice] initializing Plugin [softdevice] Initializing Video Out /var/log/messages ***************** May 5 08:26:42 mmc vdr: succeeded May 5 08:26:56 mmc vdr[8702]: VDR version 1.3.23 started May 5 08:26:56 mmc vdr[8702]: loading plugin: ./PLUGINS/lib/libvdr- softdevice.so.1.3.23 May 5 08:26:56 mmc vdr[8702]: loading plugin: ./PLUGINS/lib/libvdr- remote.so.1.3.23 May 5 08:26:56 mmc vdr[8702]: loading /video/setup.conf May 5 08:26:56 mmc vdr[8702]: loading /video/sources.conf May 5 08:26:56 mmc vdr[8702]: loading /video/diseqc.conf May 5 08:26:56 mmc vdr[8702]: loading /video/channels.conf May 5 08:26:56 mmc vdr[8702]: loading /video/timers.conf May 5 08:26:56 mmc vdr[8702]: loading /video/reccmds.conf May 5 08:26:56 mmc vdr[8702]: loading /video/svdrphosts.conf May 5 08:26:56 mmc vdr[8702]: loading /video/ca.conf May 5 08:26:56 mmc vdr[8702]: loading /video/remote.conf May 5 08:26:56 mmc vdr[8702]: loading /video/keymacros.conf May 5 08:26:56 mmc kernel: tda1004x: waiting for firmware upload...

Image plugin for 1.3.x?
by Jan Ekholm 11 May '05

11 May '05

Hi, Does the image plugin work for VDR 1.3? The homepage only mentions 1.2.6. I had my own customized version of an image viewer, but it broke very badly when the skin stuff was introduced some moons ago, and I'm too lazy to fix it. The image plugin also seems to do some nice things I'd be able to use. -- Jan Ekholm jan.ekholm(a)smultron.net

OT : gmail invitations
by Grégoire Favre 11 May '05

11 May '05

Hello, this has nothing to do with VDR... I got lots of gmail invitation to give... so if someone want an account, just write me (not to the list, only in private) :-) Sorry for the off topic, but an account with a perfect interface with more than 2Gb is quite good, isn't it ? -- Grégoire Favre

New Transponder for some ORF channels
by Michael Reinelt 11 May '05

11 May '05

Hi there, ORF decided to switch some channels to a new transponder early this year. The old channels used to work until 28. February 2005 (some of you may have wondered about the "28Feb05" in the channel name) This was done for TW1, gotv and all ORF radio channels. For some mysterious reason, this new transponder is not autodedected by VDR. I had to manually add at least one channel to my channels.conf, tune to this channel, and now all the other channels are available, too. Try this one: TW1;ORF:12662:hC56:S19.2E:22000:1010:1011=deu:1013:0:13101:1:1115:0 @Klaus: Maybe you want to replace the old and no longer working TW1 entry in the channels.conf of the VDR package with the new one? Hope this helps, Michael -- Michael Reinelt <reinelt(a)eunet.at> http://home.pages.at/reinelt GPG-Key 0xDF13BA50 ICQ #288386781
