dvd-plugin: UseDolbyDigital
by Stefan Lucke 19 Mar '05

19 Mar '05

Hi, when my understanding is right, I have to set "UseDolbyDigital" to no, when viewing dvds with non AC3 playback equipment. But with this setting when a recording starts while viewing dvd, there will be no AC3 track recorded. Shouldn't there be a separate option in the recordings menu for filtering/selecting PIDs to record ? -- Stefan Lucke

[ANNOUNCE] vdr-epgsearch-0.9.0
by cwieninger＠gmx.de 19 Mar '05

19 Mar '05

Hi, here's a new release of the epgsearch plugin. You can find it here: http://people.freenet.de/cwieninger/html/vdr-epg-search__english_.html wget: http://people.freenet.de/cwieninger/vdr-epgsearch-0.9.0.tgz What's new? 2005-03-19: Version 0.9.0 - new search mode 'regular expressions' (POSIX(default) or Perl compatible by compiler switch HAVE_PCREPOSIX in the Makefile, see README - Installation) - new search mode 'match exactly' to simplify matching of short search terms - new option for search timers: 'only annouce' will not add a timer, but display an OSD message about the found event - new progressbar in 'what's on next', that displays the time span to the next event (0 minutes(=100%) to max. 30 minutes(=0%)) - timer conficts can now be checked in the background and are displayed via OSD after each search timer scan (requires a recent timeline plugin running) - key blue in search results now toggles between "only FTA" and "all channels" (to hide results from pay tv channels) - removed some superfluous search timer modifications - finnish translation, thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg - updated README and added a description of the search process - shifted version number to allow subversions What is it about? EPG-Search can be used as a replacement for the default schedules menu entry. It looks like the standard schedules menu, but adds some additional functions: - Commands for EPG entries with 5 built-in commands like 'show repeats', 'create search'. One can add own commands for other needs, like adding a VDRAdmin auto-timer. - Add up to 4 user-defined times to 'now' and 'next' - Searching the EPG: Create reusable queries, which can also be used as 'search timers'. - Search timers: Search for broadcasts in the background and add a timer if one matches (similar to VDRAdmin's auto-timers) or simply make an annoucement about it via OSD - Progress bar in 'What's on now' and 'What's on next' - Shift the time displayed by keypress, e.g. 'What's on now' + 30 minutes - Start menu can be setup between 'Schedule' or 'What's on now' - background check for timer conflicts (requires a recent timeline plugin) Works only for vdr-1.3.x (x>=7). Tested on 1.3.10 to 1.3.21. Parts of the sources are based on the repeating-EPG patch from Gerhard Steiner, who gave me the permission to use them (thanks for his work!). Best regards, Christian

I've got about 5-8 repeating timers, not sure if those would cause the problem, they stay on top, ordered by start time.

[patch] wapd-0.7a sort timers chronologically
by Rantanen Teemu 18 Mar '05

Hi, I wrote a small patch for wapd to sort timer list chronologically by starting time. The patch is so tiny that there has to be some bug in it :-) http://tvr.dy.fi/wapd-0.7a-SortTimersChronologically.diff Teemu

MP3/MPlayer plugin 0.9.12 (development)
by s.huelswitt＠gmx.de 17 Mar '05

17 Mar '05

Hi, this is a maintenance release of the MP3/MPlayer plugin. I finaly found the time to join all the patches from here and Vdr-Portal. I apologize that it lasted so long and for all the unanswered mails in my inbox. I'm currently busy with some other stuff. <http://www.muempf.de/down/vdr-mp3-0.9.12.tar.gz> NEWS: 17.03.2005: Version 0.9.12 development (vdr 1.2.6/1.3.22) - Fixed background image convert hanging a long time and some other oddities. - Now filtering image files in the song browser display. - Extended include field in mp3sources.conf to allow multiple patterns seperated by '/' e.g. *.mp3/*.ogg/*.txt - Enhanced image convert script for NTSC format. Thanks to Cym. - Fixed list sorting for vdr versions before 1.3.15. - Fixed MPlayer slavemode progress display reappearing on user requested close. - Now explicitly setting C locale in example image convert script. Thanks to Tobias Grimm. - Changed the location where cStatus::MsgReplaying is called. Helps to prevent a crash in graphlcd. In my opinion cControl API should be called from the foreground thread only. Reported by Wolfgang Fritz. - Fixed a huge bunch of typos in the documentation. Thanks to Ville Skyttä. - Updated finish translations. Provided by Rolf Ahrenberg & Ville Skyttä. -- Stefan Huelswitt s.huelswitt(a)gmx.de | http://www.muempf.de/

VDR 1.3.22: GUI RFCs
by Pasi Juppo 17 Mar '05

17 Mar '05

Cursor behaviour ---------------- Maybe someone else than me has also wondered the behaviour of the cursor in VDR. After applying "natural cursor" patch the behaviour is now logical and similar to other software/device. Could you Klaus add on option where user can choose whether to have VDR's default cursor or "natural cursor" behaviour? VDR's implementation starts to move focus by pages after exceeding bottom (or top, depending on the direction) where as "natural cursor" moves focus by lines after exceeding bottom (full next page is shown but the cursor remains on next line). Hide menu options ----------------- Possibility to hide menu options from settings. Additional plugins provide similar functionalities (e.g. TV on screen) as VDR so it would be nice to have only one option for a task thus shorten the menu from "duplicates". Remaining space on disk ----------------------- Not sure if this is strictly skin dependant issue but it would be nice to see remaining disk space (in hours as it is now) in sub-menus as well instead of only in main menu. Current and next program ------------------------ Maybe also skin dependant issue but current and next program in channels menu would be nice. Start time of next program in between to separate programs from each other. Br, Pasi

RE: [vdr] vdr-xine and AC3 Audio

Unfortunately the I have a similar situation, and this is not a solution, merely a suggestion... If you are already running xine, why don't you use it to play DVDs natively? In my experience xine has less problems with DVDs (especially some new dvd-menus) than vdr-dvd plugin. I have a kludge which toggles xine between VDR and DVD modes using TV/DVD buttons in my remote, and I have a different remote keymap configuration for both these modes. Teemu

segfault when killing vdr
by Wolfgang Rohdewald 17 Mar '05

17 Mar '05

this is vdr-1.3.22, no patches, no plugins. Sometimes when I kill it, it segfaults in different places but always while clearing some cList. After putting in a dsyslog into ~cListBase, I could no longer reproduce it. Any ideas? To me this smells like a threading bug.
