Hi,
But, now vdr is using invalid DOS characters which prevents the files
from opening. I dont think that ":" is valid. :)
That's the VFAT define I was talking about. Set it for VDR in Make.config, recompile and future recording will have a VFAT compatible filename.
I am now able to get this working :). But, I noticed that streaming a recording does not work when VFAT = yes in the configuration of vdradmin. What I did was recompile VDR with VFAT=1 to remove the invalid DOS characters. Then, using Samba, I mapped the shared VDR Recording directory to Windows (using Z:). Next, I put "Z:" in the "Path to VDR's recording directories on the Workstation" in the configuration settings for vdradmin. Finally, I wrote a bat file on windows like this and associated it:
--SNIP--
mplayer -aid 0 -playlist %1 pause
--SNIP--
The only problem is that VDRAdmin does not stream recordings when VFAT is set to true in the vdradmind.conf. It still works when set to false, but I am unsure if that will cause other issues. :)
