VDR developer version 1.7.5 is now available at
ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.5.tar.bz2
A 'diff' against the previous version is available at
ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.4-1.7.5.diff
WARNING: ========
This is a *developer* version. Even though *I* use it in my productive environment. I strongly recommend that you only use it under controlled conditions and for testing and debugging.
The main focus of this version is still the switch to Transport Stream (TS) as the recording format, as well as improved synchronization of replay with the progress display, trick modes and subtitles.
IMPORTANT: ==========
You need the DVB driver version from
http://linuxtv.org/hg/~endriss/v4l-dvb
or, alternatively, apply the two patches
http://linuxtv.org/hg/~endriss/v4l-dvb/raw-rev/55fa4f709cf2 http://linuxtv.org/hg/~endriss/v4l-dvb/raw-rev/b5567f27fba7
(in *this* sequence) in order to replay TS recordings with full featured DVB cards! The second patch is only required for replaying pure audio recordings. Users of full featured DVB cards also need to use a new firmware, available at
http://www.escape-edv.de/endriss/firmware
Note that the header files in the latest driver versions may be broken. If you get compiler error messages like
/usr/include/sys/types.h:52: error: conflicting declaration 'typedef __ino64_t ino_t' /usr/include/linux/types.h:14: error: 'ino_t' has a previous declaration as 'typedef __kernel_ino_t ino_t'
when compiling VDR, you need to put the driver header files back to how they were before they got broken. One way of doing this is to apply the patch from
ftp://ftp.cadsoft.de/vdr/Developer/v4l-dvb-header-fix.diff
(I'm not claiming that this is the right way to fix this, since the driver developers may have had good reasons for making that change. However, both the driver and VDR compile and work fine with this).
The changes since version 1.7.4:
- Fixed a hangup when replaying a TS recording with subtitles activated (reported by Timo Helkio). - Fixed handling the 'new' indicator in the recordings menu for TS recordings (thanks to Derek Kelly). - Added cap_sys_nice to the capabilities that are not dropped (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg). - Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto). - Added cRecordingInfo::GetEvent() (thanks to Marcel Unbehaun). - Improved synchronizing the progress display, trick modes and subtitle display to the actual audio/video. This now works independent of any buffer sizes the output device might use. + The cBackTrace class has been replaced with cPtsIndex, which keeps track of the PTS timestamps of recently played frames. + cDevice::GetSTC() is now required to deliver the STC even in trick modes. It is sufficient if it returns the PTS of the most recently presented audio/video frame. + The full-featured DVB cards need an improved firmware in order to return proper STC values in trick modes (thanks to Oliver Endriss for enhancing the av7110 firmware). - Adapted cFrameDetector::Analyze() to HD NTSC broadcasts that split frames over several payload units (thanks to Derek Kelly for reporting this and helping in testing). - Modified cFrameDetector::Analyze() to make it process whole frames at once, so that file I/O overhead is minimized during recording (reported by Günter Niedermeier). - Added command line help for the '-i' option. - Fixed cDvbPlayer::NextFile() to handle files larger than 2GB (thanks to Jose Alberto Reguero). - Improved replay at the begin and end of a recording. The very first and very last frame is now sent to the output device repeatedly until GetSTC() reports that it has been played. cDvbPlayer::Action() no longer calls DeviceFlush() (thanks to Reinhard Nissl for making sure vdr-xine no longer needs this). - Added missing '[]' to the delete operator in cMenuEditStrItem::~cMenuEditStrItem(). - Added missing virtual destructor to cPalette. - Now freeing configDirectory before setting it to a new value in cPlugin::SetConfigDirectory(). - Fixed a crash when jumping to an editing mark in an audio recording. - Fixed the 'VideoOnly' condition in the PlayPes() and PlayTs() calls in cDvbPlayer::Action() (thanks to Reinhard Nissl). - cDevice::PlayTs() now plays as many TS packets as possible in one call. - Making sure any floating point numbers written use a decimal point (thanks to Oliver Endriss for pointing out a problem with the F record in the info file of a recording). - Fixed detecting the frame rate for radio recordings. - Added missing AUDIO_PAUSE/AUDIO_CONTINUE calls to cDvbDevice (thanks to Oliver Endriss). - No longer writing the video type into channels.conf if VPID is 0 (thanks to Oliver Endriss for reporting this). - Improved efficiency of cEIT::cEIT() (thanks to Tobias Bratfisch).
Have fun!

Hello,
I tried the new version but had no chance to replay or pause the recordings in vdr. But at outside it is fine to replay the ts recording. I am using s2-liplianin driver set. And tried both sd and hd channels also xine and xineliboutput plugins with no success.
Best Regards,

I'm sure Reinhard will soon provide a new version of vdr-xine that works with VDR 1.7.5. There has been a change in the semantics of cDevice::PlayTs(), so that it can play as many TS packets as possible in one call, which avoids some overhead.

I just got an updated v4l today because it has fixes for xc5000 based cards as of monday along with new firmware for that card. I also use nexus and the first patch below seems to now be included, but the second patch uas a lot of both succeeded and failed:

Is it still needed or has it been replaced with another patch?

Please do not apply these patches to current v4ldvb drivers. They are no longer required. v4ldvb supports TS replay now.
Btw, vdr 1.7.5 is outdated, too.
