Hello list,
running vdr on a monitorless machine, I ever want to know what my vdr is doing whithout the need to use XXV or df.
Now after a little programming I want to announce the first version of the kvdrmon KDE kicker applet.
This program monitors some vdr activities. It creates an icon in the KDE system tray showing some informations about the VDR:
- The current state (playing, recording, idle) - The time of the next scheduled recording(s) or the time to this recording(s) - A tooltip displays the name(s) of the running recording(s) - A window pops up if a recording has started or finished
You can select sound files for playing on started or finished recordings.
For further informations, download links and installation hints you can look at http://vdr-statusleds.sourceforge.net/vdr .
Have fun, Bernd
