Fine work, thanks! However, you don't mentition compatible vdr version. I suppose you know at least one VDR version your packages compile & work, right? :-) From http://cachalot.mine.nu/src/dxr3/:
"You'll need VDR version 1.3.13 or later to use all the patches for the plugin (or the pre-rolled combined patch and -patched tarball)."
But what are these messages like '[PATCH] dxr3 for vdr-1.3.22'
What the subject says? :) Coincidentally, that particular patch was included in my "patched" tarball even before 1.3.22 was out.
At least I get impression 1.3.22 does not work without patching, and for me 1.3.22 appears bigger than 1.3.13 :-)
Notice "or later" in the description. In other words: it won't work with VDR < 1.3.13, but as far as I know, it does work with VDR >= 1.3.13, with the caveats discussed here.
I'm using "fully thread patched" 1.3.17 myself, and have tested the plugin briefly at least up to VDR 1.3.21 (but see below).
'fully thread patched'?
There were loads of threading related patches posted to this list at 1.3.17 time; I've applied all of them.
What about putting your whole vdr-tree available? I have feeling there has been patches for nearly every plugin, and finding those patches without maling list archives is hopeless.
It's already there. All the stuff I use is RPM'd for Fedora Core 3 at http://cachalot.mine.nu/3/ (I do not have any kind of "tree" besides this, nor do I have time or plans to provide one.)
The most glaring DXR3 plugin problems I'm aware of are:
- No sound with the MP3 or DVD plugins with VDR >= 1.3.18
This is fatal for me.
Me too, that's why I stick with 1.3.17.
Hmm, using soundcard output should fix that?
Unless I'm mistaken, that's not possible with the DVD plugin.
