I love Extrecmenu plugin, in fact I'll love to see all of its features on vanilla vdr.
After upgrading to vdr-1.5.6(hooch patched version) it fail to compile:
Plugin extrecmenu: make[1]: se ingresa al directorio `/home/cjavier/src/vdr-hooch/vdr-1.5.6/PLUGINS/src/extrecmenu-0.13' ccache g++-3.4 -g -O2 -Wall -Woverloaded-virtual -fPIC -c -D_GNU_SOURCE -DPLUGIN_NAME_I18N='"extrecmenu"' -I../../../include extrecmenu.c ccache g++-3.4 -g -O2 -Wall -Woverloaded-virtual -fPIC -c -D_GNU_SOURCE -DPLUGIN_NAME_I18N='"extrecmenu"' -I../../../include mymenurecordings.c mymenurecordings.c: In destructor `virtual myMenuRecordings::~myMenuRecordings()': mymenurecordings.c:407: error: no se encuentra una función coincidente para la llamada a `cFont::SetFont(eDvbFont)' ../../../include/vdr/font.h:51: nota: los candidatos son: static void cFont::SetFont(eDvbFont, const char*, int) mymenurecordings.c:409: error: no se encuentra una función coincidente para la llamada a `cFont::SetFont(eDvbFont)' ../../../include/vdr/font.h:51: nota: los candidatos son: static void cFont::SetFont(eDvbFont, const char*, int) make[1]: *** [mymenurecordings.o] Error 1 make[1]: se sale del directorio `/home/cjavier/src/vdr-hooch/vdr-1.5.6/PLUGINS/src/extrecmenu-0.13'
Note: My system it is in spanish, if is important, a could try to generate a compile log with warnings and errors in english.
The patch to substitute the vdr original menu, also fail.
Any patch or any advice to get Extrecmenu working with a new vdr version?
Use this patch up from vdr-1.5.6
http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/vdr/browser/vdr-1.5/media-plugins/vdr-extrec...
But this is only a dirty compile fix, you will miss then all spezial source included pixelfonts, like symbol for Rec etc. For this you will get only a empty sqare :(
I dont test the patch to replace the vdr original menu, we dont use it on gentoo.
