Hi,
attached you'll find updated patches for VDR-1.5.12, which replace all formerly patches regarding this subject.
The patch named *-dvbs2-* additionally adds DVB-S2 support to VDR (thanks to Marco Schlüßler) and requires to use the DVB drivers from the multi-proto tree (see URL below for further details).
The other patch is without DVB-S2 support and therefore most suitable for DVB-C users.
The patches have been extended to also include the recently released audioindexer patch. Furthermore, the field detection code for H.264 has been adopted to MPEG2, where the same issue (VDR's index.vdr addresses frame pictures, so an index entry must not be generated for the second field of a field picture pair) exists, though hardly used compared to H.264.
Have a look at this page for more instructions on this concern:

Reinhard,
Wow! I am running vdr-1.5.12 with the new xine-lib CVS (with your loop filter and speed over accuracy changes enabled) alongside FFMPEG built for 64bit linux on a k8 (AMD dual core BE-2350 processor overclocked at 2.7Ghz) and the results are nothing short of amazing! Firstly I would like to say thank-you very much for all your hard work on H264 - what you have achieved is fantastic.
I can view channels such as BBC HD, Channel 4 HD and others perfectly.
I think this might have been covered before, but the only problem I now see is with interlaced and spatial direct mode (particularly on the French and Polish HD channels): -

this results in a picture, but artifacting on motion and eventually in a crash.
I have a short clip recorded if you would like to work on it and need an example?
Please let me know,

Is there a way to use more than a card with it when only one is DVB-S2 capable ?
Thank you very much,
Is there a way to use more than a card with it when only one is DVB-S2 capable ?
I just dropped a mail to Reinhard asking the same question. My "production" system runs 2 DVB-T cards that currently don't work with vdr-1.5.12 / multiproto. I would love to start using it full time but until I can get support for DVB-T then it won't be possible.
There's two ways you can do this I believe, port the dvb-t driver properly to the new multiproto tree or modify VDR to fall back to the old interface to tune the driver if the new one fails.
I know that it is possible to use the old interface because when I use vdr-1.4.7 with the multiproto tree it works fine for DVB-T, however I am not sure where to start coding this into either VDR and I'm not sure my skills are that hot at the driver level!
If someone could provide some pointers here, that would be great (Manu or Reinhard?)
Thanks,
Phil

I could also use two separates VDR as my two other cards are supported by multiproto and put DVB-S2 channels only on the vdr which run the DVB-S2 card, but I would higly prefer an all in one solution in which DVB-S channels are only used with DVB-S only cards and the DVB-S2 capable card is reserved for the DVB-S2 channels.

Do you mean VDR keep the DVB-S2 card for DVB-S2 channels and use the others for DVB-S usage ?

I know DVB-S2 cards can do DVB-S that's the reason to force VDR to use DVB-S only cards for DVB-S before the DVB-S2 ones, which if you want a DVB-S2 channels, so is your DVB-S2 cards free.
But one should get a way to tell VDR no to try to tune DVB-S2 channels on DVB-S card.

You can do that. In fact the application should do a DVBFE_GET_INFO. This will query the capability of that specific driver. Based on the driver capabilities, issue a tuning request. That way a tune will be attempted only on the capable device.
It is a simple check, though.
Reinhard,
The patched version doesn't look at the device capability flags, before issuing a tune ? Or is something else wrong/missing ?

Hi,
Manu Abraham schrieb:
I must admit, I didn't have a look at the source code so far, but from what I recall, I don't think that it is that easy. I think, a simple check will only make VDR tell you that the channel in question cannot be received.
I've experienced myself that VDR used the DVB-S2 card for a DVB-S recording and then endlessly tried to switch to a DVB-S2 channel using the DVB-S card -- obviously without success.
VDR's device selection logic is already quite complex. It has to deal with FF cards which have so far been used to watch the DVB-S channels, cards which provide CI interfaces and simple receiver cards. Moreover it now would have to deal with cards capable of doing DVB-S2, with or without CI interface respectively.
As I'm only distributing the DVB-S2 part which Marco Schlüßler provided several months ago, I've contacted him and asked him for an update.

Reinhard Nissl wrote:
How can you ask a DVB-S device to tune to DVB-S2 ? Poor demodulator, it has to do what it is not even capable of. :)
The logic wouldn't be much different. It is the same as requesting a DVB-C device to be tuned to DVB-S. The CI interface doesn't make the hardware look any different.
Ok, I will ask Marco on the relevant. Thanks for the feedback.

Hi,
Manu Abraham schrieb:
Well, I was in contact with Marco already and attached you'll find a minimalistic change which reports "channel not available". Now VDR should already be able to kick a low priority DVB-S recording (or transfer thread) from a DVB-S2 device.
Still missing is to prefer DVB-S devices for DVB-S recordings so that DVB-S2 devices remain available for DVB-S2 recordings of same priority.
The patch is incremental to the original dvbs2 patch from yesterday, i. e. you can simply apply it to your already patched VDR.

Hi,
Reinhard Nissl schrieb:
The attached version implements this behavior now. You may want to experiment a bit with the decision logic as explained below.
The decision is based on the number of modulation systems a card provides. For example, my NOVA-S provides one (DVB-S) and my SkyStar HD provides three (DVB-S, DVB-DSS, DVB-S2).
The decision logic is implemented in cDevice::GetDevice(), so have a look into device.c. After applying the patch, you'll find two lines in that function marked with comments like /*1*/ and /*2*/, and the latter one was disabled by a line comment.
In my scenario with just the above cards and vdr-xine as software device, watching a channel requires VDR to operate in transfer mode. Therefore it selects a device which provides for example a DVB-S channel. The patched version will choose the NOVA-S with either implementation /*1*/ or /*2*/.
Let's then start a DVB-S recording on a different transponder. When implementation /*2*/ would be active, VDR would choose the SkyStar HD, as the NOVA-S is claimed by transfer mode. Then, try to switch to a DVB-S2 channel. It wouldn't work, as the SkyStar HD would be claimed by a DVB-S recording.
That's why I've chosen implementation /*1*/ as default. For the above scenario, starting a DVB-S recording on a different transponder will choose the NOVA-S and kick off transfer mode. Then VDR will look for a card to set up transfer mode again and it will choose the only remaining card, the SkyStar HD. If you then try to switch to a DVB-S2 channel, it will work as the SkyStar HD is not claimed by a recording.
The patch is incremental to the original dvbs2 patch from yesterday, i. e. you can simply apply it to your already patched VDR.

Hi,
Hello :-)
I'll do tomorrow ;-)
The two fix solve it :-) (not the non tunable DVB-S2).
Thanks,

My cards :

But the card 1 : Hauppauge HVR-4000 is the dvb-s2 one ???
DVB: registering frontend 0 (ST STV0299 DVB-S)... DVB: registering frontend 1 (Conexant CX24116/CX24118)... DVB: registering frontend 2 (Conexant CX24123/CX24109)... Without the patch and with -D1 DVB-S2 works perfectly.

Hi,
Gregoire Favre schrieb:
Hmm, looks like you've reported the impact numbers from GetDevice(). But I've wanted some log messages from ProvidesTransponder().
Anyway, as the impact is the same for all devices, your driver doesn't set DVBFE_DELSYS_DVBS2.
I've patched multiproto with the HVR-4000 support patch you've mentioned on the linux-dvb mailing list.
cx24116.c contains this function: /* TODO: The hardware does DSS too, how does the kernel demux handle this? */ static int cx24116_get_delsys(struct dvb_frontend *fe, enum dvbfe_delsys *fe_delsys) { dprintk("%s()\n",__FUNCTION__); *fe_delsys = DVBFE_DELSYS_DVBS | DVBFE_DELSYS_DVBS2;
return 0; }
Therefore the above mentioned flag should be set. Please check whether this function gets called when VDR reaches the end of cDvbDevice::cDvbDevice().
In case the emulation layer of the multiproto tree kicks in, then the function will not get called and therefore DVBFE_DELSYS_DVBS2 is not set.
Bye.

I use this one : http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-dvb@linuxtv.org/msg28020.html but it don't seems to be the same as the one you used to check your source. It miss this function... I have to look after it in other patch...
Thank you very much, then the problem don't seems to be your patch but my driver, which will take some time to investigate :-)
Have a nice evening,
I have an problem with the original patch to vdr-1.5.12:
root@video:/usr/local/src/vdr-1.5.12-dvbs2# make g++ -g -O2 -Wall -Woverloaded-virtual -c -DREMOTE_KBD -DLIRC_DEVICE="/dev/lircd" -DRCU_DEVICE="/dev/ttyS1" -D_GNU_SOURCE -DVIDEODIR="/video" -DCONFDIR="/video" -DPLUGINDIR="./PLUGINS/lib" -DLOCDIR="./locale" -I/usr/include/freetype2 audio.c dvbdevice.h:38: Fehler: »dvbfe_delsys« bezeichnet keinen Typ make: *** [audio.o] Fehler 1
Any hints ?
Thank you...

The include path to your modified DVB-S2 drivers is missing. I set this path in Make.config (see Make.config.template) to: DVBDIR = /usr/local/src/v4l-dvb/linux

Over here, tests were done on STB0899, STV0299 and TDA10021 based all work out of the same multiproto tree (http://jusst.de.hg/multiproto)
There is something wrong then as it does not tune in vdr-1.5.12. I have the following DVB-T frontends: -
[ 9539.157598] DVB: registering frontend 1 (Conexant CX22702 DVB-T)... [ 9539.197883] DVB: registering frontend 3 (Philips TDA10045H DVB-T)...
Should the TDA10045H work? If so, perhaps the problem is that VDR is tuning frontend 1 first which is not supported yet.
How can I go about porting the Conexant to the new interface? Is it straightforward (i.e. can I compare the code for the TDA10021 based frontend in v4l-dvb and multiproto and make the changes for the cx22702 frontend?)
Thanks

If the driver what you have in the multiproto tree, if you see it as old, ie: changes have gone into those drivers in between. The easiest thing to get going is:
Get the latest tree or whichever for which that demodulator/card is working with. Just overwrite the relevant older files for your driver/card in the multiproto tree (your local copy) That way, the devices which have been newly updated also will work.
No need to do any porting. The same drivers which worked with the old API will work with the new API too, just that there is a thin translation layer in between. If you need the "shortest call" to those drivers, then you will need to port them to the new API. Till then, you can go ahead with copying the old drivers to the new API tree.

The optimized DrawRectangle() will crash when called with incorrect coordinates, i. e. x1 > x2 or y1 > y2.
More generally such issues should be handled in Intersects() and Covers(). The attached patch adds sanity checks to them.
Thanks to Claus Meder for reporting this issue.

Hi. Big thanks to Reinhard, Manu, Claus and others who has made this possible. Using the old multiproto tree from 2007-10-25 I have SVT HD (swedish) working quite well with an S2-3200 on a 2.3GHz AMD BE-2400. My problem is that with that multiproto tree, VDR won't tune to any dvb-t channels on my nova-t 500. And with the latest multiproto tree dvb-t works but only unless I load the S2-3200 modules. If I do that VDR just hangs at startup saying nothing and doesn't answer on svdrp. Is there a way to debug this and see what's happening? Does anybody have any ideas about what's going on? If I remove the channels.conf vdr complains about that, so I know it's coming that far at least. There's no difference if I load any plugins or not.
Again, I have followed all steps on the wiki and h.264+dvb-s2 works with the old multiproto, both using vdr-1.5.10 with your "old" patch and on vdr-1.5.12 with the new one. I'm running this on the 2.6.22-14-generic kernel that ships with Ubuntu 7.10.
Keep up the good work, /Magnus H

Sounds like you are having the same problem I am - when you say "new" multiproto, what do you mean?
I am using the mercurial tree at http://jusst.de/hg/multiproto which hasn't been updated now in 4 weeks.
I can't get the DVB-T devices working with it, even though Manu said it should work. The devices I use haven't had their source code modified from the v4l-dvb tree, so according to Manu the compatibility layer should mean they work OK, but when I tune to a DVB-T channel in VDR I just get a black screen.
As it seems there are quite a few people desperately hoping for some kind of DVB-T support alongisde their beloved DVB-S2 are there any other suggestions from Manu or Reinhard on this?
