Hi all, I would need your help for a strange problem :-(
I have a gentoo client-server VDR architecture server side: only a PVR150 card (no DVB, only analog channels), VDR 1.4.3, pvrinput-1.0.0, xine 0.7.9. client side: VDR xine-lib-1.1.2_pre20060328.
this is an example of my channels.conf: COMPOSITE 1:100:C23D12:C:0:301:300:305:A1:64001:0:0:0 ANALOG D:175250:C12D12:C:0:301:300:305:A1:64002:0:0:0 ANALOG H2:224250:C12D12:C:0:301:300:305:A1:64003:0:0:0 ANALOG 21:471250:C12D12:C:0:301:300:305:A1:64004:0:0:0 ANALOG 22:479250:C12D12:C:0:301:300:305:A1:64005:0:0:0 ANALOG 23:487250:C12D12:C:0:301:300:305:A1:64006:0:0:0 ANALOG 24:495250:C12D12:C:0:301:300:305:A1:64007:0:0:0 ANALOG 26:511250:C12D12:C:0:301:300:305:A1:64008:0:0:0
All the sistem work well except the recordings part.
if I try to set a timer or to start an istant recording on the COMPOSITE 1 channel (in any position of the channels.conf) it works. If I try to set a timer or an istant recording on a different ANALOG channel the screen show me the "NO SIGNAL black screen" with a continuos "channel not available" message. I can't see any live streaming image during the record time but, at the end of the timer, live tv return ok and the recording has been completed correctly (replay is ok)
The log file show me that, during the recording time, VDR is trying to change channel:
