Display right justified text
by Lars von Wedel 14 Mar '05

14 Mar '05

Hello, I'd like to display right justified text in my plugin (using cOsdItem and cSkinDisplayMenu::SetItem). Is there any means to achieve this? As an alternative, I would be satisifed with the number of characters that can be displayed on a row so I could use a normal, left-justified tab at a position "close" to the right of the OSD boundary. Thanks, Lars

vdr-1.3.22: channel not available. why?
by Rantanen Teemu 14 Mar '05

14 Mar '05

After I've upgraded to vdr-1.3.22 I've had problems with "channel not available", when there is any timer recording. I have one full card and two budgets, all of which are DVB-C, and can (in theory) receive the same channels. Actually (of course) only the full card can receive encrypted channels. One example was yesterday. There was a timer on channel 5 (not encrypted = can be received on cards 1-3). This timer started on device 1 (full card). When the timer was recording VDR kept saying "channel not available" every time I tried to view encrypted channel. The timer was started on a full device, which isn't a good idea as all the budget cards too can receive the channel. But even after the timer was running on a full card, I have thought VDR would swap the timer to another card, if the full card was needed for a channel it only could provide. This did not happen now. Why not? There was no other timers. What I could see in syslog was: Mar 12 17:09:00 mewtwovdr vdr[29424]: switching device 1 to channel 5 Mar 12 17:09:00 mewtwovdr vdr[29424]: timer 2 (5 1709-1808 'Robot Wars') start Mar 12 17:09:00 mewtwovdr vdr[29424]: Title: 'Robot Wars' Subtitle: '(null)' Mar 12 17:09:00 mewtwovdr vdr[29424]: record /mnt/raid2/vdr/Robot_Wars/2005-03-12.17:09.10.10.rec Mar 12 17:09:00 mewtwovdr vdr[29424]: creating directory /mnt/raid2/vdr/Robot_Wars Mar 12 17:09:00 mewtwovdr vdr[29424]: creating directory /mnt/raid2/vdr/Robot_Wars/2005-03-12.17:09.10.10.rec Mar 12 17:09:04 mewtwovdr vdr[29424]: recording to '/mnt/raid2/vdr/Robot_Wars/2005-03-12.17:09.10.10.rec/001.vdr' Mar 12 17:09:04 mewtwovdr vdr[29555]: file writer thread started (pid=29555, tid=1277964) Mar 12 17:09:04 mewtwovdr vdr[29556]: recording thread started (pid=29556, tid=1294354) Mar 12 17:09:05 mewtwovdr vdr[29424]: switching to channel 2 And later on when trying to view encrypted channel (only receivable on device 1): Mar 12 17:52:24 mewtwovdr vdr[29424]: switching to channel 8 Mar 12 17:52:24 mewtwovdr vdr[29587]: transfer thread ended (pid=29587, tid=1605648) Mar 12 17:52:24 mewtwovdr vdr[29424]: buffer stats: 58844 (2%) used Mar 12 17:52:24 mewtwovdr vdr[29424]: info: Kanava ei ole k<E4>ytett<E4>viss<E4>!

by Guy Roussin 14 Mar '05

Hi, I record on my server, there is no Dolby Digital stuff on this server. I play records and DVD on this server but sometimes i play them (via smbfs) on a client which can play Dolby Digital. How can i configure vdr on the server : with or without useDolbyDigital ? Thanks, Guy ___________________________________ NOCC, http://www.teledetection.fr

What about also adding an option to switch OSD to skincurses (to console), without modifying the primary device. Teemu

This is a different thing. What I was trying to suggest, was to toggle OSD skin depending on if there actually is xine connected to xine-plugin or not. Normally: VDR-xineplugin <====> xine (video+OSD) When xine disconnected: VDR-xineplugin <=====> /\ || \/ OSD (on xterm where VDR was started, using skincurses plugin) And yes, it is a matter of VDR to do this, but VDR does not know when xine is connected, so it is a matter of xine-plugin to toggle between normal OSD skin and curses skin. If you haven't tried skincurses, try running VDR with -P skincurses and toggle OSD skin to curses. It's not perfect, but I've found it useful. I run VDR on xterm on vncserver, to which I can connect to (even from internet using ssh tunneling) operate VDR. I also run vdradmin which I could use to do most things, but for a single timer this is usually faster. Teemu

How to programm Spiderman on Pro7 HDTV
by Martin Elsner 13 Mar '05

13 Mar '05

Hi! Just put in the Channel Info for tonight HDTV Broadcast of Spiderman. After a restart the channel showed up on my list, but no EPG Data. I programmed now the timer using standard Pro7 and than changed the Channel to HDTV. Can I included extra time before and after the Film or is the HDTV Channel only active for the period of the Film? I am really curios on the results off this recording :-) Tomorrow hopefully will ask how I can watch this recording on my PC. Martin

Hello, While playing with some stuff =;-D I went back to running 1.3.14 heavily patched with lots of weird stuff. make plugins and lo and behold!!! burn compiled without a problem. It still won't on 1.3.21... So my system isn't as sick as I thought and burn will compile on it. I really would like to compile 0.5 on vdr 1.3.2x Cheers Tony

VDR-1.3.22: Bug in cDolbyRepacker concerns today's HDTV event on ProSieben HD
by Reinhard Nissl 13 Mar '05

13 Mar '05

Hi, while looking forward to this evenings HDTV event 'Spiderman' on ProSieben HD I've just discovered a bug in my cDolbyRepacker which drops almost every audio PTS. Some more details: ProSieben HD broadcasts audio PES packets which may contain incomplete AC3 frames (dolby audio). The remainder of such a frame will then be at the beginning of the n e x t audio PES packet and afterwards the (a fragment) of the n e x t AC3 frame will follow. If such a next audio PES packet had a PTS, it got dropped instead of beeing applied to the next AC3 frame. The result was that AC3 frames didn't have PTS for several seconds and thus made e. g. xine think of audio discontinueties. Bye. -- Dipl.-Inform. (FH) Reinhard Nissl mailto:rnissl@gmx.de
