I'm trying to get HDTV to work with VDR. What I know so far is that a FF- cards mpeg decoder is not able to handle the bitrate. What I'm trying to do is to run vdr-1.3.25 + streamdev ( CVS 2005-08-28 ) using:
C MORE HD;Telenor:11261:hC78:S1.0W:24500:517:660=eng;661=eng:1:B00:3306:70:33:0
which is a 1980x1080i stream, and by suspending the FF-card ( via streamdev- server ) before changing to C MORE HD I expect that the mpeg decoder will not choke ;)
In my logs I get:
Sep 21 20:12:14 vdr vdr[15751]: Streamdev: Accepted new client (HTTP) 10.0.1.98:1058 Sep 21 20:12:19 vdr vdr[15760]: ERROR: no useful data seen within 10717880 byte of video stream Sep 21 20:12:35 vdr vdr[15749]: ERROR: CI MMI: unknown tag 9F8800 Sep 21 20:12:48 vdr kernel: dvb-ttpci: warning: timeout waiting in BlitBitmap () Sep 21 20:12:58 vdr kernel: dvb-ttpci: warning: timeout waiting in BlitBitmap () Sep 21 20:13:14 vdr vdr[15749]: ERROR: CAM: Read failed: slot 0, tcid 1 Sep 21 20:13:47 vdr vdr[15749]: CAM: Conax 4.00e, 01, 0B00, 04B1 Sep 21 20:14:16 vdr vdr[15749]: ERROR: CI MMI: unknown tag 9F8800
I'm using vlc 0.8.2 to pick up the stream from VDR. The FF-card is a Nexus-S with CI+CAM ( Conax + subscription card, Canal Digital Sweden )
I'm planning to use a machine with DVI output (X,fb,DirectFB or similar) and display on a HD-ready 40" LCD, streamed from my main VDR. Can this be made today? Please report success stories.
What is the hard/software needed to watch HDTV with VDR or what else is wrong with this picture?
