Small patch to prefermenu and ideas for next generation prefermenu.
by DOm 17 Feb '05

17 Feb '05

Hi, firstly i attach a small patch to fix drawing of the new yellow and blue "buttons" of prefermenu plugin. Thinking to a better prefermenu i would like to ask something to someone more inside the vdr code: Can i use something like the small menu for Audio track selection to show preferred channels? Doing so i can have a channel menu not too big and looking consistent with the current skin. Does this sound reasonable to you? And more important: Did you understand me? really :) Thanks for your effort, ANgelus.

VDR developer version 1.3.21
by Klaus Schmidinger 17 Feb '05

17 Feb '05

VDR developer version 1.3.21 is now available at ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.3.21.tar.bz2 *** NOTE THAT THE WARNINGS REGARDING THE USE OF VPS CONTROLLED *** TIMERS FROM PREVIOUS RELEASE NOTES STILL APPLY! The changes since version 1.3.20: - Fixed cDvbDevice::SetAudioTrackDevice() to avoid a blank screen after switching back to live mode if a recording is currently active on the primary device. - Fixed a possible freeze in pause mode in case a device's PlayPesPacket() function permanently returns 0 (thanks to Reinhard Nissl and Olaf Titz). - Completed the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Restricted the "setting audio track" log message to automatic changes during replay. - Fixed handling Transfer Mode for radio channels (thanks to Andreas Regel for reporting this one). - Fixed handling symbolic links in cRecordings::ScanVideoDir() (thanks to Stefan Huelswitt). - Completed the Danish OSD texts (thanks to Mogens Elneff). - Forcing a new resync after a call to cRemux::Clear() (suggested by Marco Schlüßler). - The cAudio::Play() function now has an additional parameter 'uchar Id' which tells the function the substream id of the given audio packet, so that a plugin can take the right action for the various kinds if audio data - which now also includes "normal" audio with ids 0xC0...0xDF (based on suggestions by Werner Fink and Macro Schlüßler). - Removed the "Cleared/PlayPes(NULL, 0)" handling from cTransfer::Action(), since this is now done when attaching the player to the device (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - Making sure the buffer reserve in cTransfer::Action() is re-established after clearing the buffer. - Added DeviceClrAvailableTracks() and DeviceSetCurrentAudioTrack() to cPlayer (thanks to Marco Schlüßler). - Fixed a typo in detecting UTF-8 (thanks to Reinhard Nissl). - Now using twice the buffer reserve in cTransfer if the primary DVB card is an unmodified version with only 2MB of SDRAM, to avoid audio stuttering when playing Dolby Digital over the DVB card (thanks to Christian Jacobsen and Chad Flynt for suggestions and experiments in that area). - Making sure the first audio packet is not dropped when switching to "pre 1.3.19 Dolby Digital compatibility mode". - The 'plugins-clean' target of the Makefile now only deletes the actual plugin library files from this version of VDR (suggested by Andreas Brachold). - Added a missing 'resultSkipped = 0' to cRemux::Clear() (thanks to Marco Schlüßler for reporting this one). - The new function cDvbDevice::SetTransferModeForDolbyDigital() can be used by plugins that implement Dolby Digital output and thus want to prevent the cDvbDevice from starting Transfer Mode in order to replay DD over the DVB device. - Added missing reset of the 'repacker' to cTS2PES::Clear() (thanks to Marco Schlüßler for reporting this one). The DVB driver I am currently using can be found at ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/linux-dvb.2004-12-26.tar.bz2 which is the CVS 'HEAD' version from 2004-12-26, made available as a complete archive for your convenience. Of course, you can also use any newer driver version. Have fun! Klaus

Hi all, linuxtv.org is operating within normal parameters ;-) We decided to replace the mailing list manager Ecartis with Mailman. If you want to change your settings go to: http://linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo In case you have trouble accessing CVS, or other problems, please send mail to admin(a)linuxtv.org. I read some people here are unhappy because of changed List-Ids or lost personal settings; I'm sorry about that, but we're too lame to get that right... Johannes

Still happens in VDR 1.3.20. The kernel is 2.6.9 but the DVB driver is a recent CVS snapshot. Olaf

vdr-xine-0.7.x breaks SVDR
by Tuomas Jormola 16 Feb '05

16 Feb '05

Hi, When using vdr-xine plugin version 0.7.0 or 0.7.1 and the xine player is connected to the vdr-xine socket, changing channels from a telnet session to VDR's SVDR service doesn't work anymore. The SVDR service just hangs when it tries to change channels. Also the vdr-control plugin's OSD-over-network doesn't work. However, it'll work just after starting VDR and without xine player connected. After the xine player connects, problem begins to occur. With vdr-xine 0.6.5 everything is ok so something that was added to 0.7.0 causes this. I've tried with VDR 1.3.19 and 1.3.21, VDR version doesn't seem to matter, the problem occurs with both versions. Any ideas? -- Tuomas Jormola <tjormola(a)cc.hut.fi>

[ANNOUNCE] vdr-epgsearch-0.0.8
by cwieninger＠gmx.de 16 Feb '05

16 Feb '05

Hi, there'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-0.0.8.tgz What's new? 2005-02-16: Version 0.0.8 - added support for VPS in search timers - channels of search timers are now stored with ID rather than number (avoids editing your searches after channel modifications, you have to change any searchtimer to activate the new storing) - corrections in the english version, thanks to Darren Salt - fixed a bug in criterion duration - fixed channel selection when shifting displayed time, thanks to Ronny Kornexl - put some space between progressbar and event info (TtV*) for text2skin 1.0 - fixed compilaton problems in vdr-1.3.10 - switch display in search results to 'episode name only' with key yellow - fixed width of start time, when displaying channel number, thanks to Gerhard Steiner 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 builtin commands like 'show repeatings', 'create search'. One can add own commands for other needs, like adding a VDRAdmin autotimer. - Add up to 4 userdefined times to 'now' and 'next' - Searching the epg: Create reusable queries, which can also be used as 'search timers'. - Search timers: Search for broadcastings in the background and add a timer, if one matches (similar to VDRAdmins autotimers) - Progressbar in 'What's on now' - 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' 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

RE: [vdr] vdr-1.3.21: video data stream broken
by Vladimir Shved 16 Feb '05

I think this bug only can be reproduced if you are using 4x1 diseqc switches. I have exact same problem on my setup and I traced it out to diseqc switches. Every time one of your cards switches one switch while other card is recording, the diseqc signal goes around LNB to another diseqc switch and moves its position too, and other card, which is recording, loses signal and you get VDSB. I don't have scope but I've put the cards in different machines and if I set one of the machines to record while I'm flipping channels on second machine, the first one would got VDSB or if I'm not recording, I'd just lose signal on first machine. If I use only one, either machine, at the time, stuff works without any problems. In my opinion, the only way to resolve this is to get diseqc-multiswitch. Another possibility is your hardware setup, i.e. one or all of your Nexus cards are using bad PCI slots or sharing IRQ with very incompatible devices. Try moving cards to different PCI slots to resolve IRQ issues. > -----Original Message----- > From: vdr-bounces(a)linuxtv.org [mailto:vdr-bounces@linuxtv.org] On Behalf > Of sn123py vdr user > Sent: Tuesday, February 15, 2005 6:23 AM > To: Klaus Schmidinger's VDR > Subject: Re: [vdr] vdr-1.3.21: video data stream broken > > hm, but with same environment, vdr-1.3.17 (with nearly all plugins > enabled) > everything works?!
