Good day everyone,
I've decided to use VDR 1.7.0 on my linux box, together with my Technotrend S2-3200 DVB-S2 card. Now, it's quite hard to find a decent tutorial on how to compile VDR from source, but at least I found this in the wiki:
http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/OpenSUSE_VDR_DVB-S2_-_xine
It's german, and I don't completely understand it, but I wrestled through it. Right up to the point where I need to compile the plugins!
... skincurses.c: In member function ‘virtual bool cPluginSkinCurses::Initialize()’: skincurses.c:793: error: ‘WINDOW’ was not declared in this scope skincurses.c:793: error: ‘w’ was not declared in this scope skincurses.c:793: error: ‘initscr’ was not declared in this scope make[1]: *** [skincurses.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/vdr/PLUGINS/src/skincurses' ... make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/vdr/PLUGINS/src/svdrpdemo' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/vdr/PLUGINS/src/svdrpdemo'
*** failed plugins: skincurses
make: *** [plugins] Error 1
What could be causing this and how can I fix it?
I'm using LinuxMCE 0710 - Kernel 2.6.22-14-generic
Thank you for your patience,
Jelle De Loecker

The WINDOW data structure is provided by ncurses library. You may need a different/newer version of libncurses-dev. (imho one of the 'wide character' versions for unicode.)

Hello,
I recently added a NOVA-T500 to my vdrbox. Unfortunately, even if the picture is really nice, I've some freezes because the TNT signal is weak (I am in 50km of the Eiffel Tower...).I ordered a 0.4 dB low noise preamplifier (ULNA 3036 from TGN-Technology) to improve my installation.
Actually, Femon is mesuring only the strengh value (here about 60%), but not the rate of error. I need the two informations to fix my installation.
Do you know any patch for Femon, or any utilities under Linux which can displays all TNT signal informations ?
Thank you. Karim.
Sorry, thank's for the tip.

For the non-french speaking people, it may be useful to say that "TNT" is the french acronym for "DVB-T".

The solution was quite simple: The suse tutorials on the vdr wiki didn't say which dependencies you needed, like the libn5curses (or something like it) Afterwards I had the same problem with some other plugins, but since they were in the repository I could do a "apt-get build-dep vdr-plugins-burn" and most of the time that would have fixed it.
However, sometimes I needed to sift through the error messages and find the correct packages in synaptic.
