Hi,
I guess this must be an error in my setup, maybe channels.conf, or something similar, but just cannot find it..
I recently went from 1.6.0 to 1.7.12 and now 1.7.13, and all my old and new recordings alike either cannot be rewinded or fast forwarded. One way works, and another does not, one way works in some recordings and the other in the rest of them.
What happens is that when you rewind (or ff), it looks good and goes backwards, but then when you go to play, it starts at the place you started the rewind. Also, while rewinding, if you have the status bar on, the time does not count at all, and the green bar only moves little if at all.
Tried to search this list.. But still baffled and thankful for any help. I'm in Finland, Helsinki, Welho Cable network. Example of a channel that does not work:
MTV3 D;MTV Oy:282000:C0M128:C:6900:305=2:561=fin:817:0:49:42249:2:0

Hi, Are you using the newest firmware which can play ts for FF-card? Maybe this is your problem. BR. Halmi
Hi,
Thank you for your help Halim, this firmware solved the problem:

Thanks for the link, it was mentioned in vdr 1.7.8 announcement, but was too hard for me to spot. Maybe that should be mentioned in INSTALL or MANUAL in the sources. Or in PLUGINS/src/dvbsddevice/README like this:

That sounds similar to a problem that i've seen: When you play a recording for a while and then, let's say after 30 Minutes, jump forward one minute, the first jump effectively goes back a few minutes, subsequent forward jumps then really go forward.
I thought this problem is related to the reelbox plugin (i am using a reel eHD), but now i think that VDR sometimes loses track about it's actual position.

I have something similar using 1.7.12 and ATSC, was working under 1.6.0 fine...
I can fastwind and rewind, even go from fastwind to rewind, but if I play at the end of the fastwind then the picture remains paused. I can go from the pause to rewind or fastwind, but not play. I have to exit the recording, and then go back in, when VDR will start from where it left off.
This is quite frustrating, as we routinely record things to wind through the commercials.
