Hi!
Those who run vdr-xine with the network patches, what is the version of your libxine and which patches do you use for libxine and vdr-xine?
I tried with the patches from x-vdr, vdr-xine-0.7.9, vdr-1.4.0-2 and http://home.vrweb.de/~rnissl/xine-lib-cvs-20060319194500.tar.bz2, but I'm unable to get a good video. I estimate the framerate to be about 0,2fps... Both systems have over 70% idle.
I'm running vdr-1.4.0, vdr-xine-0.7.9 with network patch from x-vdr and a xine-lib and xine-ui from the xine cvs the day 1.4.0 was released. I have however not had any problems with any combination of xine and vdr. Do you have the same problem when running the ui on the same machine as vdr?

No, I don't, and that's really strange. When running on the same system I get no picture at all and lots of errors like this: === CLEAR(-4.2) === CLEAR(-4.3) === CLEAR(-4.4) === CLEAR(-4.5) --- CLEAR(-4b) bad_frame bad_frame bad_frame bad_frame bad_frame
I guess I'll to try to change the xine-lib version to the one you use.
hi,
i use this settings in setup.conf
xine.modeLiveTV.monitoringDuration = 0 xine.modeLiveTV.prebufferFrames = 4 xine.modeLiveTV.prebufferHysteresis = 4
after this changes, all went ok on my client

Thanks for the suggestions, people. Unfortunately neither improved the situation. Running xine-ui in remote x86_64 host produces slow motion => transfer buffer overflows continuosly, and running on local i586 host produces lots of errors but no picture.
The problem isn't in the network bandwidth, because I can use mplayer+streamdev to watch many channels simultaneously. CPU power is also not a problem, as there is a lot of idle time in both systems. Also note that I had this working when the network-xine patch was first introduced.
It feels like the code sleeps somewhere too long or something like it.
What do you think, how should I proceed in debugging this?

I use vdr-xine 0.7.7 with 0.7.9 it doesn't work as nice. on one computer it was running ok (with the default settings 4/4/no monitor) and on another computer (a faster one) it wasn't. (jerk every 5/10 sec + sound desynchronised).
now running vdr-1.4.0-1 + vdr-xine-0.7.7 and everything is ok (-ish) (the fast forward/rewind is not as perfect as with 0.7.9 but it's less important)

Okay, I installed vdr-xine-0.7.7.
While my 0.7.9 patched libxine was installed with vdr-xine 0.7.7, the video was much better, but still jerky (no buffer overflows etc, and the video wasn't lagging behind, just skipping most frames). I then installed libxine again, this time patched with the correct 0.7.7 patch. Now I don't get any video at all, just "No signal". The remote events do still get through, as I see the channel-switching in the log.

Could it be you haven't set PrimaryDVB correctly ? here i'm not using the vdr-xine feature to automatically set the primary device when vdr-xine is used. i have to set it to (number_of_real_dvb_device + 1)
anyway, i'm using it on x86_32. it's xine-lib cvs head from last weekend and xine-ui 0.99.3 (in fact i've just recompiled the debian unstable xine-ui with --enable-vdr-keys) and i use these patches on top of xine-lib and vdr-xine-0.7.7: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.vdr/27923
