Would you accept a patch doing the following:
.) Defining file_offset_bits to 64 which will lead to all of the "normal" file operations use 64 bit io
.) change all the integer references for file offsets to fpos_t and alike?
Afair this is all that has to be done.
If you would accept it I'd go and patch vdr.
Why, it ain't broken, why to 'fix' it ? What would be the benefit for VDR in general, better picture quality ?
