Hello,
i recently built a vdr-1.7.6 + reelbox pluging, following the vdr-wiki for VDR DVB-S2 on OpenSuse.
Everything was build properly, but unfortunately the eHD freezes after a few Minutes (not only when replaying recordings, but also with live TV). I know that there are some problems concerning the new TS format of VDR.
Does anyone have a solution for this problem? I don't like the idea to use VDR 1.7.0 or an even older version.
Any help is greatly appreceated.
Hello,
I installed vdr-1.7.6 + reelbox plugin a week ago using: http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/OpenSUSE_VDR_DVB-S2#openSUSE_VDR_DVB-S... which propably is the one you are refering to. Then I applied the vdr-1.7.6-1.7.7.diff patch which worked except that I had to change the osd.h file a little for the patch to run without complaints. There is some memory leak problem with vdr-1.7.7 but Klaus is looking into it, see: http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/vdr/2009-May/020636.html
I got it also up an running with VDR-1.7.7 in the meantime. And I finally tested with 1.7.0 wich is known to work pretty stable with the eHD.
All three versions show the same problem. It works for a few Minutes and then the eHD freezes. Since this happens with three different sofware setups, and because the eHD is always kompletly dead (it needs a power off to restart), i also suspected a hardware problem.
I placed a Fan next to the card and, guess what, ... it works for more than an hour right now... and still running.
Reelbox plugin still occasionally freezes, but so it has always done. The reelbox plugin is of course a joke and I deeply regret buying the card from Reel-Multimedia. Hopefully the VDPAU is more promising.
