[linux-dvb] dvdplayer with region 1 dvd, success with new kernel

[Thomas Jagoditsch <t.ja@gmx.at>]

hi all.

question/problem:
dvdplayer 0.5 works fine, but a region 1 dvd (red mars) outputs with 
imho false refresh rate (picture runs verticaly).
any known reason for this ? will an us-dvd played with 60 hz ?

report:
after my recent troubles with suse 7.2 i now have a running system 
with a 2.4.5 kernel and dvb cvs-20010626 (only alphacrypt made the 
known problems - with ntuxzap too btw - i will swap for an expensive 
irdeto all-cam today).
- vdr 0.83 runs fine till now; sound and picture loss have gone away, 
especially for my eurosport-motorcycle recordings *g*.
- i tried dtv 1.1.1 and will play with that in the future. looks 
nice, especially the teletext feature.
- dvdplayer 0.5 runs, but sometimes the picture freezes and could be 
killed or aborted via ctrl-c only. also fastforward didnt seem to 
work ?!?

question:
is there an easy way to integrate vdr, dtv and dvdplayer ?

i now try to implement a script which switches between this apps.
i thought about starting scripts via commands.conf which will write 
semaphores and then kill vdr. the main script will then use the 
semaphores to tell which app should be started after vdr and restart 
vdr after that.
will vdr be disturbed when it will be killed by a commands.conf 
script ?
could this work ?

at last i would like to thanks again all these fine people which made 
this reality.

wbr.tja...
