minimum machine as streamdev client
by tony 26 Feb '05

26 Feb '05

Hi, Playing with streamdev I'm streaming from my hush to various machines around the house. My Vaio (400 Mhz Pentium II mobile [Celeron]) isn't up to the task. VLC uses much less CPU than vdr streamdev client but the machine still drops frames. What is the minimum CPU for a client machine? Tony

Problem cutting recording.
by Josef Wolf 26 Feb '05

26 Feb '05

Hello! I have problems to cut Stephen Kings "Thinner" that was broadcasted yesterday on pro7. I have set cut-marks as usual. But when I start cutting, it stops immediately. Cutting other recordings still works as usual. I attached what I got in syslog at the end of the mail. Any ideas what is going wrong here and how I can fix it?

Hi, I just wanted to add that in NA, some FTA channels lose sync on playback as well. It is still true that "live" viewing always works properly. This may change your hypothesis a bit. I read somewhere that in NA the live data is variable rate to better utilize the bandwidth. Good luck, I've been bothered by this for some time ;) __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

RE: [vdr] OT: Best DVI Video Card for Xine

It is similar to PAL 576i, which is actually 625i, but those about 50 scanlines are for sync signals and porches. 765p is odd, it should be 750p. HDTV 720p is 720 scanlines and 30 lines on porches and sync. So I am not sure about if your TV reports this as total number of lines, or are modelines wrong in your configuration. Best regards, Jori

I have had a bit of fun with this move as I was previously running vdr 1.3.18 with a FF dvb-t card and the new place has cable network, so I decided to get a cable card for the job.

DVD-plugin: How do I choose audio stream?
by Erik Tjernlund 25 Feb '05

25 Feb '05

Is there a way to make the dvd-plugin _not_ choose the AC3 audio stream, when playing dvds? I just want the ordinary analog sound from the DVB-card's output. /Erik -- "Put me back on my bike!" <http://erik.tjernlund.net/>
