Hi guys, I've recently bought an Xtreamer device www.xtreamer.net (apparently a mvix product). I would just like to know if anybody else got it working with streamdev-server plugin on vdr-1.6.0?
Thanks Theunis
I'd like to know if somebody uses any networked media player as VDR client

Do you use an Xtreamer device as a frontend, what are you using to achive this?

I am using a PCH-A110 device with vdr-ui running on a separate server (for better integration). Channels are served using the standard streamdev plugin. The only drawback is the necessity to quit (close) the running stream and go back to the vdr-ui selection page each time you want to change to another channel.
I have managed to build a jsp playlist with all VDR channels, but channel change is not quick enough to bring a good `surfing` experience with this method.
Using xineliboutput you can watch the `live` stream and change channel without quitting the player but the mono pmt parser fails sometime to get the new pids (tested with soft and hard demuxerm. m2ts and pes container). I am convinced that this is the best way to have an acceptable switching time between 2 channels reusing existing player with low key/remote dev (directfb keyb app to redirect remote key to VDR app).

I tried this with vdr-1.7.9 and as soon as I switch the channel the Xtreamer device stops. I still need to press stop and play again.

Are you using the cvs version of the plugin? If not, you should give it a try. There is a fix which send a new PMT with relevant pids each time a channel is performed. You can verify using a tool like dvbsnoop. If the screen is still black, it is a problem of the PCH player. Even if the new channel is not playing, going back to previous one must show the proper picture.

Has anybode DLNA capable televisions for example from samsung or sony? It would be interesting to know would be easy to use those with vdr for watching live tv and recordings.

I'm using 20091126 snapshot of xineliboutput and that version produces blank screen. I will try the latest and see if it is still occurs, in the mean time the author (person that took over streamdev) said that I should take a recording and place it on a http server and see what happens. I think this is to figure out why my Xtreamer device (not PCH) takes a while to play the audio.
Hauppauge MediaMVP and vdr-vompserver plugin.
Years of happy use and good waf. No vdr osd so no access to plugins but I can access them with vdr-xine on my server.
Sadly standard definition only. I have yet to see an equivalent HD mediaplayer that can be as readily hacked like the MediaMVP has.

Thanks to the mediatomb team in the irc channel on freenode. I was able to get xtreamer device to watch Live tv. It simply exports the urls from streamdev-server over UPnP.
Thanks, Theunis

Great! But is it possible to switch channels from Xtreamer?

Currently what happens is, I browse UPnP mediatomb server, select, then get a list of "files" that are redirected exported urls of streamdev-server. The Xtreamer does come with a preview option, so I can either look in a small picture in picture type mode, or press OK, and watch the channel. When I want to change the channel, I have to press stop like I would have pressed stop when watching a normal media file. Then it returns to the preview menu where it lists the channel files (I had to manually add each channel url to mediatomb). Currently audio can take up to a few minutes before it starts playing. I'm hoping to implement the sync early patch on VDR and see if that does make a difference. Otherwise the Xtreamer is fast, zoom features are remembered, even plays subtitles. (next firmware release will disable it, currently enabled by default).
If they release the SDK, I guess somebody can look at adding EPG info and selecting channels that way. Great so far :D

Great! FYI there is a VDR client for Popcorn Hour - http://www.popcornforum.de/showthread.php?tid=5201&highlight=vdr-gui Maybe the same approach can be used with Xtreamer as well.
