Or use the mplayer plugin together with the correctly configured mplayer.sh script from Juri Haberland (be sure to disable NTSC-support and configure the vcd-dummy-entry correctly!) to watch the VCD on your vdr machine! :-)Florian Ottillinger wrote:Hi everybody!The problem is probably, that those VCD's were recorded with NTSC-Resolution and your tv is not capable of NTSC. I have the same problem. The only solution i know is, to watch it on your Computer screen using mplayer.
I have a problem with the vcd-plugin. I use the newest version 0.0.6c and vdr 1.2.6.
Some VCD's and SVCD's are only played back in black white mode. I can watch the
movie but with no color.
That's right, but not mplayer's fault. Actually linux cannot natively "mount" the data part of a (s)vcd, only the "TOC" part. Windows(TM) "mounts" the "TOC" part of a vcd and does "on-the-fly" extraction of the data part when playing/copying the files in the MPEG2 directory. You might use the cdfs driver to do on-the-fly extraction on linux, similar to Windows!I also tried to play the file in the MPEG2 dir of a SVCD via mplayer, but no success.mplayer can only read the vcd in it's vcd mode if i remember it right (take a look at the docs)
Seems that mplayer cannot handle that file format or what am i doing wrong?
