I just had a look at ChainTech's homepage. By reading the specs, it's not clear, whether the card provides a MPEG decoder or not. Typically, a FF card has a video-out connector, but it might well be, that others provide just a MPEG decoder, while the output still has to go via the system's gfx card.If you have a full featured DVB card, you need to go to VDR's DVB menu and select the highest device, which will be vdr-xine.
I don't think my card is a full featured , it's a chaintech DST-1000
Well, VDR selects the first card which provides a MPEG decoder as output device. My budget card doesn't have one, but vdr-xine provides one, so in my case, the OSD goes to xine without any further adjustments.is there a way to get osd working?
