Dear VDR folks,
somehow I am not able to get the local frontend to work.
Debian Sid/unstable is installed with
$ dpkg -l vdr vdr-plugin-xineliboutput libxineliboutput-sxfe […] ii libxineliboutput-sxfe 1.0.7+cvs20120609.1902-1 Local X-Server frontend for the xineliboutput plugin ii vdr 1.7.28-1 Video Disk Recorder for DVB cards ii vdr-plugin-xineliboutput 1.0.7+cvs20120609.1902-1 VDR plugin for Xine based sofdevice frontends
and I try to get the local frontend working but it fails.
$ sudo -u vdr vdr -P"xineliboutput --local=sxfe --video=auto --audio=alsa --remote=none" No protocol specified No protocol specified No protocol specified
Unfortunately I do not know what the problem is as this is the command mentioned in `README` of `xineliboutput`.
Usage examples (VDR plugin)
If no arguments are given, both X11 and framebuffer frontends are tried. First working frontend is used with best available video driver. Complete list of available command-line arguments can be obtained with "vdr --help".
Only local frontend, X11/Xv video, alsa audio: vdr -P"xineliboutput --local=sxfe --video=xv --audio=alsa --remote=none"
Thanks,
Paul
