Same stuff, have had no compatibility problems. Still I need a solution for video recording from my (old, analogic) videocamera... Got a DC10 card for that but the driver still uses the old I2C interface. no way with a recent kernel. And Pinnacle software for windoze definitely sucks big time. There's an offer for a linux specific mjpeg capture board, but I tend to find it grossly overpriced. So I thought: why not record directly to mpeg2? Outta luck with that one for now. I'd appreciate if someone has found a solution and post about his experience. Greetings, Max --- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to listar@linuxtv.org with unsubscribe as subject.

Since there is no information about the PCI bridge on the SigmaDesigns card I don't think much can be done (or is it the same bridge as on the Dxr3/HW+?). The Hauppauge PVR would probably be easier to support since the bridge is well known. The Conexant Fusion 878A is backwards compatible to the Bt848/878. Only some routines for transferring data from I2S or GPIO have to be added and one would have to figure out how exactly the data transfer between Altera, Kfir, ADSP and 878A works on this board. I don't know how easily this can be figured out by inspection of the card or by trial and error. Here some information by Hauppauge would of course help. But I have never seen either of those cards (only pictures) and there are no plans I know of to support them right now, espcially not if not at least some minimal technical support is provided by the manufacturer.

What if you use the DVB-S card for recording and then the kfir card for re-encoding? Does the driver already support that? If not, is it theoretically possible to feed a *file* into the encoder card and get a differently encoded file back out? If yes, do you have plans to implement that?

Status: O X-Status: X-Keywords: X-UID: 27 Hi, according to various sources, MPEG video image quality can vary dramatically depending on the quality of the encoder. For example, see http://heroinewarrior.com/mpeg2movie.html Also, according to my own experience, this is very true. For example, I have tried the windoze PowerVCR, which is a real time software encoder that creates an extremely poor quality. I have also tried SGI's dmconvert, which is extremely slow and somewhat buggy when delaing with large input files, but creates MPEG-1 VCDs at very low bitrates that I cannot distinguish from DVDs on my beamer. So my question is: how do people rate the image quality created by the kfir LinuxTV MPEG2 Encoder board? Is it really good even at low bitrates? Is there even an objective benchmark that compares the encoding quality of a standard video sequence between various encoders? Thanks for any info.

Yesterday I tried the Kfir with 1/4 PAL, 352x288 @ 1.5 MBit with MPEG-2. It looks quite good. I'm decoding with a DVB card and watching the picture on an old Amiga 1084S monitor. 'cause that's want you want to know: DivX is much cooler but I don't know any code for a DSP.

What if you use the DVB-S card for recording and then the kfir card for re-encoding? Does the driver already support that? If not, is it theoretically possible to feed a *file* into the encoder card and get a differently encoded file back out? If yes, do you have plans to implement that?

Status: O X-Status: X-Keywords: X-UID: 42 Hi, according to various sources, MPEG video image quality can vary dramatically depending on the quality of the encoder. For example, see http://heroinewarrior.com/mpeg2movie.html Also, according to my own experience, this is very true. For example, I have tried the windoze PowerVCR, which is a real time software encoder that creates an extremely poor quality. I have also tried SGI's dmconvert, which is extremely slow and somewhat buggy when delaing with large input files, but creates MPEG-1 VCDs at very low bitrates that I cannot distinguish from DVDs on my beamer. So my question is: how do people rate the image quality created by the kfir LinuxTV MPEG2 Encoder board? Is it really good even at low bitrates? Is there even an objective benchmark that compares the encoding quality of a standard video sequence between various encoders? Thanks for any info.

I tried it and the problem seems to be the muxing again. Sometimes you have video buffer underflows and the picture has some kind of hangup and sometimes there is an audio buffer underflow and you get audio dropouts because the firmware mutes audio when that happens. If you remux the PES stream you can get rid of that. You can see that audio and video stream are ok when you demux the stream and play them separately. If you want to do a remux in the driver it could be a problem since you would need large buffers. We will see how we can get rid of the problem when we get back from vacation.

I've also played around to get all packets received by the card with a given PID but that was a long time ago (as fas as I can remember the driver version was at 0.6; and lately I had no time to follow changes in the driver :((( so there could be an easier way than the one I describe here). What I've learned is the "all 0s mask" filters won't work (at least didn't work for me)... this is a driver issue (or may be a hardware limit) so even if you successfully patch the dvbd it is possible that it won't work this way. I've managed to receive all packets (with a given PID) by setting up two bit filters: one with data: $80, mask: $80 , the other one with data: $00, mask: $80 (both filters mask by the first bit of the packet: one of them filters out packets with first bit 0, the other one is with first bit 1.. so you can receive all packets with two filters :)) I don't know how to implement it in dvbd.c , I've never saw that stuff, cause I only use my card to watch TV (and no network reasons).

I am currently working on that. The next version (0.7) of VDR will store recordings in PES format and will also provide the ability to mark the beginning and end of commercial breaks and generate an edited version of the original recording. However, I'm having some serious problems with the PES mode of driver 0.8. When I make a recording with cat /dev/video > filename and replay that recording with cat filename > /dev/video I get big audio dropouts with recordings taken from e.g. ARD, while there are (almost) no audio dropouts on recordings from e.g. RTL. I assume that it might have to do with the different picture sizes of these channels (704x576 vs. 480x576). Maybe some of you here on the list could reproduce the above mentioned tests (with the 0.8 DVB driver installed as it comes, i.e. _without_ 'outstream=0'!) and let me know whether you experience the same problems. Please also give the CPU speed of your system (mine is running at 450MHz).

Status: O X-Status: X-Keywords: X-UID: 69 Does anybody know of a (freely available) algorithm to convert an MPEG2 Group Of Pictures (GOP) which usually consists of an I-frame followed by several P- and B-frames into a GOP that consists only of I-frames? Background: I am currently implementing an editing function into VDR and the solution I have so far can only cut at I-frame borders (i.e. about every half second). If there is a way to convert all frames of a GOP into I-frames I believe it should be possible to implement a frame besed editing function.

(MASK is intended for Hardware Mask because Dvb card masks packets directly by its hardware without using O.S.)

The reason for that being that you have to choose a much higher compression for the I-frame when you cannot use B- and P- frames and you want the overall bitrate of the file to remain constant. So I do not believe this applies to Klaus' problem because a) we're dealing with VBR files anyway and b) Klaus does not want to turn the entire file into an "I-frames only mpeg", but just part of the GOP at the cut point. Usually a GOP is less than 2 seconds. Back to the question: The obvious solution that I can see is to decompress the entire GOP and recompress the part of it that turns out to be needed.

Usually a GOP is less than 2 seconds. Carsten is right, I don't need to (nor want to) decode the entire recording, but only those frames needed to perform frame accurate editing. I would not expect any quality degardation in doing so, since the expanded P- and B-frames could have roughly the same size as the I-frame of their GOP. There's probably no problem if the MPEG stream contains a small sequence of "all I-frames". > Back to the question: The obvious solution that I can see is to > decompress the entire GOP and recompress the part of it that turns > out to be needed. > > For an open source MPEG2 (de)compression software, see > http://heroinewarrior.com/mpeg.html Thanks, will do.

I partially solved my problem: first 3 element (data[1], data[2], data[6], corresponding to 3 MAC LSBytes) can be set to 0 MASK, while other 3 can only be masked with an 0xF0 mask. In my example: ip[0] = 0xd7; dvbcfg[0].filter.data[1] = (ip[3] << 8) | 0x0000 ; dvbcfg[0].filter.data[2] = (ip[2] << 8) | 0x0000 ; dvbcfg[0].filter.data[6] = (ip[1] << 8) | 0x0000 ; dvbcfg[0].filter.data[7] = (ip[0] << 8) | 0x00ff ; dvbcfg[0].filter.data[8] = (0x02 << 8) | 0x00f0 ; dvbcfg[0].filter.data[9] = (0x00 << 8) | 0x00ff ; Here first 3 are ok, while data[7] is set by my value, ip[0]. In addition 8 can be masked by a 0xF0 value, so we could have such as: 00 0X D7 XX XX XX filter address. For my application is ok. Now I have another question I'll ask with a new subject.

I've also played around to get all packets received by the card with a given PID but that was a long time ago (as fas as I can remember the driver version was at 0.6; and lately I had no time to follow changes in the driver :((( so there could be an easier way than the one I describe here). What I've learned is the "all 0s mask" filters won't work (at least didn't work for me)... this is a driver issue (or may be a hardware limit) so even if you successfully patch the dvbd it is possible that it won't work this way. I've managed to receive all packets (with a given PID) by setting up two bit filters: one with data: $80, mask: $80 , the other one with data: $00, mask: $80 (both filters mask by the first bit of the packet: one of them filters out packets with first bit 0, the other one is with first bit 1.. so you can receive all packets with two filters :)) I don't know how to implement it in dvbd.c , I've never saw that stuff, cause I only use my card to watch TV (and no network reasons).

But since I own a Europe Online account, I want to get Internet access too. I followed the instructions I found in the net exactly (More precisely: eon-proxy.html, the doc by Lukas Loesche about setting the connection up through squid) but I can't get it to work. Squid just refuses to do anything about using the eon proxy as parent. Can you tell me how to set it up correctly or how to get accurate information about what my system does? If I use the squid's full debug mode, I don't get _any_ info on connections, only a very detailed bootup info which is completely useless on this. Or is it just because eon has shut down their proxy service? Does it work for anyone? I hope you can help me, thanks! PS: Yes, the dvbd is running and configured correctly (at least I hope so). I've already fiddled around with the config and the source so it uses the correct network device and packet settings. And, I get a sync rate of 127!

Since I do the conversion in the driver, I do not want to waste kernel time by looking at the entire stream to find such a header. This is why the files usually don't start with a sequence header. I am currently (when vacation is over) writing a remuxing program that will be in the av_pes2any package and probably solve this problem among others. I don't think it will be put in the driver though. It just requires to much memory and time to do this at that point. On the other hand, I couldn't find any requirement in the specs that the first bytes of the first PES of a PS have to be a sequence header. Sure, it is convenient for playback , so that you can determine resolution, bit rate and such, but it is not required, as far as I can see.

VDR already scans the MPEG data stream to find the location of every frame, so if the problem could be solved by simply inserting or prepending some additional bytes, I guess that could be done easily in VDR. All I would need is the information what to insert where.

I'm having the same problems with driver version 0.8 and PES recording (actually they were also present in driver 0.71, which I just verified). Interestingly the problem apparently depends on the channel that is recorded. Recordings from RTL work just fine when replayed, while those from ZDF have huge sound dropouts. I'm hesitating to release VDR version 0.7 (which implements a full featured editing solution :-), because since it is now PES based it might cause more trouble than fun...

Sorry, but I changed the behaviour of the DVR device a little bit. You have to open it read-only or write-only now. There also were some other changes to the API, e.g. a software frontend type can now be specified. Let me explain why I did this: When you are normally watching TV the demux driver talks to the kernel demux API with a hardware frontend attached. But if you are decoding something from file you have to change this to a software frontend, at least for the Siemens card because you cannot send back a stream through the hardware demux. Somehow you have to decide which frontend to use for the demux. So, I change the frontend type according to the open mode (read or write) of the DVR device. Previously it was suggested to me to change to the software frontend when a write() command was issued to the kernel demux API. But how exactly do I decide then if you want to read again? How do I set the filters? Do the filters belong to an incoming or outgoing stream? In the case of a card which can use the same hardware demux for recording and playback this would of course be much simpler. There are further complications if one wants to allow simultaneous recording and playback. One would actually need two demux devices. But what device numbers/names do they get. How do I know then which kernel demux APIs and demux devices belong to which card if there are several? Since the Siemens card does not allow this anyway I have not addressed this problem yet. Discussion of this and other problems on this list would be very welcome. I will address all the changes I made to the API and add some sample programs to the CVS tree after my vacation which ends on January 8th.

So, I am supposed to go out and buy any Windoze MPEG2 software and see if there might be a problem? I tested it with one Windoze MPEG2 player which I was forced to buy with another product. It works. That's more than enough considering people with that operating system are not our intended users. Again, you are getting a GPLed driver with sample applications for free in the hope something useful for everybody grows out of it (like Klaus' great VDR project). And we have the audacity not to supply free service for any kind of problem on top of it. Wow, really bad service. Hmm, that reminds me of those funny mails from people asking me for Windoze support for their Bt848 cards because they did not want to buy SDKs from the manufacturers. They are probably mad that their mail went to /dev/null and they never heard from me (well, I was too busy ROTFL ...). If you are a customer who wants something fixed that's another matter. But even he would have to supply samples, maybe give access to the software/hardware which doesn't work with our code, etc. >From other users I also expect at least a detailed bug report which gives me some hint about the problem. "Doesn't work" isn't really helpful in most cases. In most other cases I think we always provided quick fixes, even to problems which are still not fixed on this great "professionally used and expensive" other operating system. But if the problem only occurs with some exotic and expensive non-Linux software, there is nothing I can/will do about it.

Hintergrund meiner Frage: Ich persönlich bevorzuge Linux wegen seiner STabilität und Performance für diese System. Den VDR von Klaus empfinde ich als absolut tolles und ausbaufähiges System. Was jetzt mir noch gefehlt hat, war die möglichkeit, aufgenommene Sendungen für längere Zeit zu archivieren - Sprich: "auf CD zu brennen" - da dies aber auf Grund des hohen DATEN-Volumens von MPEG2 nicht so ohne weiteres möglich ist, währe eben eine Umencodierung der daten in MPEG1 (VIDEOCD) von Vorteil. Nun war dies ja mit der Option Outcommand=1 in verbindung mit dem Programm PVA2MPG ohne weiteres Möglich und man erhielt einwandfreie VIDEO-CD Files - was angesichts der heute üblichen Prozessorleistungen kein Problem mehr darstellt. Nur sehe ich mich und meine Bemühungen jetzt etwas in der Sackgasse - Klaus stellt sein VDR auf den neuen Treiber und damit auf MPEG2 um womit ich (und natürlich auch andere) gezwungen sind, nun mit diesesm File-Format zu arbeiten. Da ich es aber nach nun 1 Woche intensiver Bemühungen und unhählgen versuchen noch nicht fergig gebracht habe, mit diesesn MPEG2 Files irgenwas anderes anzufangen als diese wider über den LINUX-DVBs Treiber abzuspielen, suche ich einfach nur RAT oder Hilfe. Ich habe auch versucht, diese mit 0.8 erzeugten MPEG2 DAteien mit der WINDOWS SOFTWARE WINDVB-LIVE (welche ja die gleiche Karte benutzt) abzuspielen - leider auch negativ. Sorry noch mal - es mag ja sein, daß alles genau den MPEG2 Spezifikationen entspricht - nur kann ich dann einfach nicht verstehen, daß kein Programm welches normalerweise MPEG2 verarbeitet diese DAteien akzeptiert. (einzige Ausnahme: ATI-DVD PLAYER für WINDOWS) Auch der LIGOS MPEG2 Encoder welchen ich mir mal für über 400 DM gekauft habe, produziert nur Fehlermeldungen. Ich hab mit diesem schon sehr viele MPEG2 VideoFiles von verschiedenen Quellen gelesen - doch daß er eine DAtei noch nicht mal öffenen konnte ist noch nie passiert. Das einzige Programm, welches die Datei zumindest nicht gleich ablehnt ist der FLASK encoder - allerdings produziert dieser dann nach 1 Min nur noch ein Standbild, wobei eine mit PVA2MPG umgewandelte "alte" Datei einwandfrei encodiert wird. Ich weiß - jetzt kommen Gleich wieder die Einwände der LINUX-Fangemeinde "WAS SOLL DAS MIT DIESEN DUMMEIN WINDOWS-ANWENDUNGEN" - Dem kann ich nicht ganz zustimmen - WIN2K ist inzwischen ein sehr stabiles System und entsprechende Anwendungen laufe auch inzwischen absolut problemlos - vor allem im VIDEO-Bereich. OK - Genug - ich weiß - ihr seit im Urlaub und ausserdem werdet ihr nicht mal dafür bezahlt, daß ihr euch die ganze Arbeit antut - also.. nix für ungut !

Axel Gruber has some points however. I have also been having a lot of trouble doing anything useful with recorded streams (with pre-0.8 driver). Usually I record Arte and Tv5, and aim to put them in some format I can read store indifferently with other players: "SVCD", "SVCD-like" the so-called "mini-dvd" etc. The most frequent problem appears as audio dropouts. The originally recorded stream plays OK and in sync, but things go lousy after demuxing and remuxing. Most tools signal some error about the audio stream. BTW there's a version of Flaskmpeg specifically modified to deal with pva streams. Couldn't even open _some_ of the recorded streams. So it's not about any special "propietary" windoze software. The point is that ALL the tools I've tried, under windoze or linux, do have some problems with certain recordings, to the point of seriously interfering with further manipulations. My question is: has someone here run the recorded streams (from several different transmitters) through some analysis or "lint" tool? this could maybe help to troubleshoot what's been going on.

I'm not sure if I understand what you are referring to. The "28 SF1 `time`" you mentioned is the number and name of the channel (plus the current time) that is displayed when you switch channels or press "Ok". The "01:00 Event 0" I assume is the starting time and title of the currently runing programme. If that's what you mean by "info", you'll need to make sure that the entries in 'channels.conf' all have the "Pnr" (Program Number) parameter set to a non-zero value (that's the last value in each line, for example "907" in your "SF2" example). VDR doesn't have means to retrieve these number automatically (yet).

Show us the passage in ISO/IEC 13818-1,2,3 (the real definition of MPEG2 files) which we violate or a bug in our programs and we will fix it. If you want more, well, it's open source.

You can receive them even if you don't have any CICAM equipment. Maybe the particular channels you are referring to don't broadcast any EPG (Electronic Programme Guide) info? Just a thought...

I really don't want to heat up this discussion, but I definitely have to agree with what Ralph says: standards are the way to go! IMO it makes no sense to adapt ANY program or driver to make it work together with another program that DOESN'T adhere to the standards. As my knowledge about this whole MPEG stuff is still pretty limited, I can't possibly say whether the Linux DVB driver's output is 100% standard, but as long as nobody can quote a passage from an official document that proves otherwise, we should refrain from using terms like "bad service". None of the users of the Linux DVB driver (inclucing myself) is paying Ralph or the company he works for any money (or do they?). It is my understanding of Open Source projects that everybody can use them and if there is a problem, can contribute to fix it. I'm sure Ralph would be more than happy to fix any non-standard behaviour of the Linux DVB driver that he is made aware of. Well, I hope I don't get flamed for this...

Did you add 'outstream=1' in the Makefile? Without that, the current (0.68) version of VDR can't record. > - Back to driver 0.71 (modified with "VidMode(dvb, 2)") > - I get Kernelerrors "Record buffer full" no matter if I load VDR > - After loading VDR and replaying a recorded Stream the "Record buffer > full" Errors are gone > - Sometimes at Night Time the driver gets "Outcommand Errors" That's probably because VDR scans the channels for EPG data and therefore switches channels every 20 seconds. Looks like there's still a problem in the driver when channels are switched that intensively. You can set the "EPGScanTimeout" parameter (in the "Setup" menu) to a large value (say, 50) to disable this feature. > - Sometimes the Driver didn't respond anymore. > > Ok PPL ... what schould I do now .. what will the sollution ... will it be > the new VDR ?? The next version (0.7) of VDR will be PES based (no more 'outstream=1'). However, since there are still problems with recording, e.g., the ZDF channel in PES mode (see the respective threads on the list) I'm hesitating to release that new version before the driver problems are solved. The "Outcommand Errors" probably won't be fixed by the new VDR version, since I haven't changed anything in that area (I assume these will have to be fixed in the driver).

Yes When you ask for an web site the answer is sent to MAC address 00:02:ipA:ipB:ipC:ipD where ipA:ipB:ipC:ipD is your IP address. So if your ask for something from the SAME IP ADDRESS you'll receive the answer to the same MAC Address, so it is not necessary to hack the Dvb filter. > I already have two ip adresses on the same pc but I guess that I must do > something with the MAC address. > from the DVB. You should have IP1 and IP2 (static on internet) So MAC addresses are 00:02:(IP1) and 00:02:(IP2). You have to search the NET address common in IP1 and IP2 and set it to filter DVB. Near the end of dvbd.c file you find "filter_0" string. After you'll have an assignment like this: dvbcfg[0].data[1] = (ip[0] << 8) | (0x00FF) ; or something similar. You have to change 0x00FF to 0x0000: the FF rappresents the bitfilter mask (with FF is only accepted ip[0] while if you set 0x0000 is accepted all 256 value for ip[0]. Unfortunately you couldn't set all 4 IP to mask 0x0000 (I don't know why) but only some of them. For example ip[0], ip[1], ip[2] and 0x00F0 for ip[3]. Tell me if you have trouble trying all that.

Same stuff, have had no compatibility problems. Still I need a solution for video recording from my (old, analogic) videocamera... Got a DC10 card for that but the driver still uses the old I2C interface. no way with a recent kernel. And Pinnacle software for windoze definitely sucks big time. There's an offer for a linux specific mjpeg capture board, but I tend to find it grossly overpriced. So I thought: why not record directly to mpeg2? Outta luck with that one for now. I'd appreciate if someone has found a solution and post about his experience. Greetings, Max --- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to listar@linuxtv.org with unsubscribe as subject.

Since there is no information about the PCI bridge on the SigmaDesigns card I don't think much can be done (or is it the same bridge as on the Dxr3/HW+?). The Hauppauge PVR would probably be easier to support since the bridge is well known. The Conexant Fusion 878A is backwards compatible to the Bt848/878. Only some routines for transferring data from I2S or GPIO have to be added and one would have to figure out how exactly the data transfer between Altera, Kfir, ADSP and 878A works on this board. I don't know how easily this can be figured out by inspection of the card or by trial and error. Here some information by Hauppauge would of course help. But I have never seen either of those cards (only pictures) and there are no plans I know of to support them right now, espcially not if not at least some minimal technical support is provided by the manufacturer.

I tried it and the problem seems to be the muxing again. Sometimes you have video buffer underflows and the picture has some kind of hangup and sometimes there is an audio buffer underflow and you get audio dropouts because the firmware mutes audio when that happens. If you remux the PES stream you can get rid of that. You can see that audio and video stream are ok when you demux the stream and play them separately. If you want to do a remux in the driver it could be a problem since you would need large buffers. We will see how we can get rid of the problem when we get back from vacation.

I've also played around to get all packets received by the card with a given PID but that was a long time ago (as fas as I can remember the driver version was at 0.6; and lately I had no time to follow changes in the driver :((( so there could be an easier way than the one I describe here). What I've learned is the "all 0s mask" filters won't work (at least didn't work for me)... this is a driver issue (or may be a hardware limit) so even if you successfully patch the dvbd it is possible that it won't work this way. I've managed to receive all packets (with a given PID) by setting up two bit filters: one with data: $80, mask: $80 , the other one with data: $00, mask: $80 (both filters mask by the first bit of the packet: one of them filters out packets with first bit 0, the other one is with first bit 1.. so you can receive all packets with two filters :)) I don't know how to implement it in dvbd.c , I've never saw that stuff, cause I only use my card to watch TV (and no network reasons).

I am currently working on that. The next version (0.7) of VDR will store recordings in PES format and will also provide the ability to mark the beginning and end of commercial breaks and generate an edited version of the original recording. However, I'm having some serious problems with the PES mode of driver 0.8. When I make a recording with cat /dev/video > filename and replay that recording with cat filename > /dev/video I get big audio dropouts with recordings taken from e.g. ARD, while there are (almost) no audio dropouts on recordings from e.g. RTL. I assume that it might have to do with the different picture sizes of these channels (704x576 vs. 480x576). Maybe some of you here on the list could reproduce the above mentioned tests (with the 0.8 DVB driver installed as it comes, i.e. _without_ 'outstream=0'!) and let me know whether you experience the same problems. Please also give the CPU speed of your system (mine is running at 450MHz).

Status: O X-Status: X-Keywords: X-UID: 185 Does anybody know of a (freely available) algorithm to convert an MPEG2 Group Of Pictures (GOP) which usually consists of an I-frame followed by several P- and B-frames into a GOP that consists only of I-frames? Background: I am currently implementing an editing function into VDR and the solution I have so far can only cut at I-frame borders (i.e. about every half second). If there is a way to convert all frames of a GOP into I-frames I believe it should be possible to implement a frame besed editing function.

The reason for that being that you have to choose a much higher compression for the I-frame when you cannot use B- and P- frames and you want the overall bitrate of the file to remain constant. So I do not believe this applies to Klaus' problem because a) we're dealing with VBR files anyway and b) Klaus does not want to turn the entire file into an "I-frames only mpeg", but just part of the GOP at the cut point. Usually a GOP is less than 2 seconds. Back to the question: The obvious solution that I can see is to decompress the entire GOP and recompress the part of it that turns out to be needed.

Usually a GOP is less than 2 seconds. Carsten is right, I don't need to (nor want to) decode the entire recording, but only those frames needed to perform frame accurate editing. I would not expect any quality degardation in doing so, since the expanded P- and B-frames could have roughly the same size as the I-frame of their GOP. There's probably no problem if the MPEG stream contains a small sequence of "all I-frames". > Back to the question: The obvious solution that I can see is to > decompress the entire GOP and recompress the part of it that turns > out to be needed. > > For an open source MPEG2 (de)compression software, see > http://heroinewarrior.com/mpeg.html Thanks, will do.

I partially solved my problem: first 3 element (data[1], data[2], data[6], corresponding to 3 MAC LSBytes) can be set to 0 MASK, while other 3 can only be masked with an 0xF0 mask. In my example: ip[0] = 0xd7; dvbcfg[0].filter.data[1] = (ip[3] << 8) | 0x0000 ; dvbcfg[0].filter.data[2] = (ip[2] << 8) | 0x0000 ; dvbcfg[0].filter.data[6] = (ip[1] << 8) | 0x0000 ; dvbcfg[0].filter.data[7] = (ip[0] << 8) | 0x00ff ; dvbcfg[0].filter.data[8] = (0x02 << 8) | 0x00f0 ; dvbcfg[0].filter.data[9] = (0x00 << 8) | 0x00ff ; Here first 3 are ok, while data[7] is set by my value, ip[0]. In addition 8 can be masked by a 0xF0 value, so we could have such as: 00 0X D7 XX XX XX filter address. For my application is ok. Now I have another question I'll ask with a new subject.

I've also played around to get all packets received by the card with a given PID but that was a long time ago (as fas as I can remember the driver version was at 0.6; and lately I had no time to follow changes in the driver :((( so there could be an easier way than the one I describe here). What I've learned is the "all 0s mask" filters won't work (at least didn't work for me)... this is a driver issue (or may be a hardware limit) so even if you successfully patch the dvbd it is possible that it won't work this way. I've managed to receive all packets (with a given PID) by setting up two bit filters: one with data: $80, mask: $80 , the other one with data: $00, mask: $80 (both filters mask by the first bit of the packet: one of them filters out packets with first bit 0, the other one is with first bit 1.. so you can receive all packets with two filters :)) I don't know how to implement it in dvbd.c , I've never saw that stuff, cause I only use my card to watch TV (and no network reasons).

But since I own a Europe Online account, I want to get Internet access too. I followed the instructions I found in the net exactly (More precisely: eon-proxy.html, the doc by Lukas Loesche about setting the connection up through squid) but I can't get it to work. Squid just refuses to do anything about using the eon proxy as parent. Can you tell me how to set it up correctly or how to get accurate information about what my system does? If I use the squid's full debug mode, I don't get _any_ info on connections, only a very detailed bootup info which is completely useless on this. Or is it just because eon has shut down their proxy service? Does it work for anyone? I hope you can help me, thanks! PS: Yes, the dvbd is running and configured correctly (at least I hope so). I've already fiddled around with the config and the source so it uses the correct network device and packet settings. And, I get a sync rate of 127!

Since I do the conversion in the driver, I do not want to waste kernel time by looking at the entire stream to find such a header. This is why the files usually don't start with a sequence header. I am currently (when vacation is over) writing a remuxing program that will be in the av_pes2any package and probably solve this problem among others. I don't think it will be put in the driver though. It just requires to much memory and time to do this at that point. On the other hand, I couldn't find any requirement in the specs that the first bytes of the first PES of a PS have to be a sequence header. Sure, it is convenient for playback , so that you can determine resolution, bit rate and such, but it is not required, as far as I can see.

VDR already scans the MPEG data stream to find the location of every frame, so if the problem could be solved by simply inserting or prepending some additional bytes, I guess that could be done easily in VDR. All I would need is the information what to insert where.

I'm having the same problems with driver version 0.8 and PES recording (actually they were also present in driver 0.71, which I just verified). Interestingly the problem apparently depends on the channel that is recorded. Recordings from RTL work just fine when replayed, while those from ZDF have huge sound dropouts. I'm hesitating to release VDR version 0.7 (which implements a full featured editing solution :-), because since it is now PES based it might cause more trouble than fun...

Sorry, but I changed the behaviour of the DVR device a little bit. You have to open it read-only or write-only now. There also were some other changes to the API, e.g. a software frontend type can now be specified. Let me explain why I did this: When you are normally watching TV the demux driver talks to the kernel demux API with a hardware frontend attached. But if you are decoding something from file you have to change this to a software frontend, at least for the Siemens card because you cannot send back a stream through the hardware demux. Somehow you have to decide which frontend to use for the demux. So, I change the frontend type according to the open mode (read or write) of the DVR device. Previously it was suggested to me to change to the software frontend when a write() command was issued to the kernel demux API. But how exactly do I decide then if you want to read again? How do I set the filters? Do the filters belong to an incoming or outgoing stream? In the case of a card which can use the same hardware demux for recording and playback this would of course be much simpler. There are further complications if one wants to allow simultaneous recording and playback. One would actually need two demux devices. But what device numbers/names do they get. How do I know then which kernel demux APIs and demux devices belong to which card if there are several? Since the Siemens card does not allow this anyway I have not addressed this problem yet. Discussion of this and other problems on this list would be very welcome. I will address all the changes I made to the API and add some sample programs to the CVS tree after my vacation which ends on January 8th.

So, I am supposed to go out and buy any Windoze MPEG2 software and see if there might be a problem? I tested it with one Windoze MPEG2 player which I was forced to buy with another product. It works. That's more than enough considering people with that operating system are not our intended users. Again, you are getting a GPLed driver with sample applications for free in the hope something useful for everybody grows out of it (like Klaus' great VDR project). And we have the audacity not to supply free service for any kind of problem on top of it. Wow, really bad service. Hmm, that reminds me of those funny mails from people asking me for Windoze support for their Bt848 cards because they did not want to buy SDKs from the manufacturers. They are probably mad that their mail went to /dev/null and they never heard from me (well, I was too busy ROTFL ...). If you are a customer who wants something fixed that's another matter. But even he would have to supply samples, maybe give access to the software/hardware which doesn't work with our code, etc. >From other users I also expect at least a detailed bug report which gives me some hint about the problem. "Doesn't work" isn't really helpful in most cases. In most other cases I think we always provided quick fixes, even to problems which are still not fixed on this great "professionally used and expensive" other operating system. But if the problem only occurs with some exotic and expensive non-Linux software, there is nothing I can/will do about it.

Hintergrund meiner Frage: Ich persönlich bevorzuge Linux wegen seiner STabilität und Performance für diese System. Den VDR von Klaus empfinde ich als absolut tolles und ausbaufähiges System. Was jetzt mir noch gefehlt hat, war die möglichkeit, aufgenommene Sendungen für längere Zeit zu archivieren - Sprich: "auf CD zu brennen" - da dies aber auf Grund des hohen DATEN-Volumens von MPEG2 nicht so ohne weiteres möglich ist, währe eben eine Umencodierung der daten in MPEG1 (VIDEOCD) von Vorteil. Nun war dies ja mit der Option Outcommand=1 in verbindung mit dem Programm PVA2MPG ohne weiteres Möglich und man erhielt einwandfreie VIDEO-CD Files - was angesichts der heute üblichen Prozessorleistungen kein Problem mehr darstellt. Nur sehe ich mich und meine Bemühungen jetzt etwas in der Sackgasse - Klaus stellt sein VDR auf den neuen Treiber und damit auf MPEG2 um womit ich (und natürlich auch andere) gezwungen sind, nun mit diesesm File-Format zu arbeiten. Da ich es aber nach nun 1 Woche intensiver Bemühungen und unhählgen versuchen noch nicht fergig gebracht habe, mit diesesn MPEG2 Files irgenwas anderes anzufangen als diese wider über den LINUX-DVBs Treiber abzuspielen, suche ich einfach nur RAT oder Hilfe. Ich habe auch versucht, diese mit 0.8 erzeugten MPEG2 DAteien mit der WINDOWS SOFTWARE WINDVB-LIVE (welche ja die gleiche Karte benutzt) abzuspielen - leider auch negativ. Sorry noch mal - es mag ja sein, daß alles genau den MPEG2 Spezifikationen entspricht - nur kann ich dann einfach nicht verstehen, daß kein Programm welches normalerweise MPEG2 verarbeitet diese DAteien akzeptiert. (einzige Ausnahme: ATI-DVD PLAYER für WINDOWS) Auch der LIGOS MPEG2 Encoder welchen ich mir mal für über 400 DM gekauft habe, produziert nur Fehlermeldungen. Ich hab mit diesem schon sehr viele MPEG2 VideoFiles von verschiedenen Quellen gelesen - doch daß er eine DAtei noch nicht mal öffenen konnte ist noch nie passiert. Das einzige Programm, welches die Datei zumindest nicht gleich ablehnt ist der FLASK encoder - allerdings produziert dieser dann nach 1 Min nur noch ein Standbild, wobei eine mit PVA2MPG umgewandelte "alte" Datei einwandfrei encodiert wird. Ich weiß - jetzt kommen Gleich wieder die Einwände der LINUX-Fangemeinde "WAS SOLL DAS MIT DIESEN DUMMEIN WINDOWS-ANWENDUNGEN" - Dem kann ich nicht ganz zustimmen - WIN2K ist inzwischen ein sehr stabiles System und entsprechende Anwendungen laufe auch inzwischen absolut problemlos - vor allem im VIDEO-Bereich. OK - Genug - ich weiß - ihr seit im Urlaub und ausserdem werdet ihr nicht mal dafür bezahlt, daß ihr euch die ganze Arbeit antut - also.. nix für ungut !

One of them (value 8) meant auto. The new API offers only 8 (0-7) values. Does someone know about their meaning and if an auto-option is still supported ?

Axel Gruber has some points however. I have also been having a lot of trouble doing anything useful with recorded streams (with pre-0.8 driver). Usually I record Arte and Tv5, and aim to put them in some format I can read store indifferently with other players: "SVCD", "SVCD-like" the so-called "mini-dvd" etc. The most frequent problem appears as audio dropouts. The originally recorded stream plays OK and in sync, but things go lousy after demuxing and remuxing. Most tools signal some error about the audio stream. BTW there's a version of Flaskmpeg specifically modified to deal with pva streams. Couldn't even open _some_ of the recorded streams. So it's not about any special "propietary" windoze software. The point is that ALL the tools I've tried, under windoze or linux, do have some problems with certain recordings, to the point of seriously interfering with further manipulations. My question is: has someone here run the recorded streams (from several different transmitters) through some analysis or "lint" tool? this could maybe help to troubleshoot what's been going on.

For now the only viable solution I see for me to get compatible recordings it to get the hardware encoder card and re-encode anything through it (provided it generates real standard mpeg2).

I'm not sure if I understand what you are referring to. The "28 SF1 `time`" you mentioned is the number and name of the channel (plus the current time) that is displayed when you switch channels or press "Ok". The "01:00 Event 0" I assume is the starting time and title of the currently runing programme. If that's what you mean by "info", you'll need to make sure that the entries in 'channels.conf' all have the "Pnr" (Program Number) parameter set to a non-zero value (that's the last value in each line, for example "907" in your "SF2" example). VDR doesn't have means to retrieve these number automatically (yet).

You can receive them even if you don't have any CICAM equipment. Maybe the particular channels you are referring to don't broadcast any EPG (Electronic Programme Guide) info? Just a thought...

I really don't want to heat up this discussion, but I definitely have to agree with what Ralph says: standards are the way to go! IMO it makes no sense to adapt ANY program or driver to make it work together with another program that DOESN'T adhere to the standards. As my knowledge about this whole MPEG stuff is still pretty limited, I can't possibly say whether the Linux DVB driver's output is 100% standard, but as long as nobody can quote a passage from an official document that proves otherwise, we should refrain from using terms like "bad service". None of the users of the Linux DVB driver (inclucing myself) is paying Ralph or the company he works for any money (or do they?). It is my understanding of Open Source projects that everybody can use them and if there is a problem, can contribute to fix it. I'm sure Ralph would be more than happy to fix any non-standard behaviour of the Linux DVB driver that he is made aware of. Well, I hope I don't get flamed for this...

Did you add 'outstream=1' in the Makefile? Without that, the current (0.68) version of VDR can't record. > - Back to driver 0.71 (modified with "VidMode(dvb, 2)") > - I get Kernelerrors "Record buffer full" no matter if I load VDR > - After loading VDR and replaying a recorded Stream the "Record buffer > full" Errors are gone > - Sometimes at Night Time the driver gets "Outcommand Errors" That's probably because VDR scans the channels for EPG data and therefore switches channels every 20 seconds. Looks like there's still a problem in the driver when channels are switched that intensively. You can set the "EPGScanTimeout" parameter (in the "Setup" menu) to a large value (say, 50) to disable this feature. > - Sometimes the Driver didn't respond anymore. > > Ok PPL ... what schould I do now .. what will the sollution ... will it be > the new VDR ?? The next version (0.7) of VDR will be PES based (no more 'outstream=1'). However, since there are still problems with recording, e.g., the ZDF channel in PES mode (see the respective threads on the list) I'm hesitating to release that new version before the driver problems are solved. The "Outcommand Errors" probably won't be fixed by the new VDR version, since I haven't changed anything in that area (I assume these will have to be fixed in the driver).

Yes When you ask for an web site the answer is sent to MAC address 00:02:ipA:ipB:ipC:ipD where ipA:ipB:ipC:ipD is your IP address. So if your ask for something from the SAME IP ADDRESS you'll receive the answer to the same MAC Address, so it is not necessary to hack the Dvb filter. > I already have two ip adresses on the same pc but I guess that I must do > something with the MAC address. > from the DVB. You should have IP1 and IP2 (static on internet) So MAC addresses are 00:02:(IP1) and 00:02:(IP2). You have to search the NET address common in IP1 and IP2 and set it to filter DVB. Near the end of dvbd.c file you find "filter_0" string. After you'll have an assignment like this: dvbcfg[0].data[1] = (ip[0] << 8) | (0x00FF) ; or something similar. You have to change 0x00FF to 0x0000: the FF rappresents the bitfilter mask (with FF is only accepted ip[0] while if you set 0x0000 is accepted all 256 value for ip[0]. Unfortunately you couldn't set all 4 IP to mask 0x0000 (I don't know why) but only some of them. For example ip[0], ip[1], ip[2] and 0x00F0 for ip[3]. Tell me if you have trouble trying all that.

Well, I shall admit I hadden't though of those channels not having EPG (thanks for lerning me the right name ;-)))... I go to my parent who have an Xsat CDTV 360, and don't get any EPG (not even for the SF2 which gave me "01:00 Event 0" every time with VDR???).
