Detecting recording errors
by Tobias Grimm 10 Feb '11

10 Feb '11

Hi! Is there a patch/plugin/tool/whatever which would make VDR somehow tag recordings where there were stream-error when recording? It shouldn't be too hard to scan a *.ts-File for discontinuity errors, but I would like to make VDR detect this while recording and somehow set a flag, so I can see if a recording might have errors. BR, Tobias

skip +/- 60 sec suggestion.

When using the skip forward / backward buttons, eg to jump through the ads, it would be convenient if the skip backward button skipped backwards 30 seconds instead of 60, on the first press. Subsequent skip backwards would skip 60 seconds as normal. This would make it easier to narrow down the start of a program after skipping ads. -- -Tor

[ANNOUNCE] vdr-dxr3 0.2.12
by Ville Skyttä 07 Feb '11

07 Feb '11

vdr-dxr3 version 0.2.12 is out, noteworthy changes since 0.2.11: - Make dist target depend on up to date *.po (Ville Skyttä) - Use pkg-config to locate libavcodec (Ville Skyttä) - Avoid deprecation warnings with libavcodec >= 52.26.0 (Ville Skyttä) - Compiler warning cleanups (Ville Skyttä) - Reintroduce AC3 decoding (Luca Olivetti) - Fix fast forward with VDR 1.7.x (Luca Olivetti) 0.2.x is the "stable" series of the dxr3 plugin, targeted primarily for VDR 1.6.x at the moment, but it should work to some extent also with VDR 1.7.x. More extensive work on the next version is underway at http://projects.vdr-developer.org/projects/show/plg-dxr3 Downloads are available at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dxr3plugin/files/dxr3-0.2.x/0.2.12/ http://projects.vdr-developer.org/projects/plg-dxr3/files

OSD character set
by Sami Sundell 04 Feb '11

04 Feb '11

Hello. I'm coming to you again with a character set problem. I've been happily using various versions of VDR for several years now. Yesterday I took the plunge and updated the system to 1.7 - mainly because e-tobi.net deb repository had been updated already a while ago, and I felt things were running all too smoothly :P Well, it was somewhat of a surprise, but everything seems to be working correctly, the only thing that needed changing was fixing the port for vdradmin. However, there's a teensy issue with the OSD: it looks like its characters are in UTF-8, when the system is ISO-8859-1. Some info on the system: Debian squeeze running on AMD64 VDR 1.7.16-2~ctvdr1 running on server, output on another machine Using xineliboutput (1.0.6+cvs20110105.1949-1) to get things going. Telnet into SVDRP claims the system is running on ISO-8859-1. The frontend system has LANG set to fi_FI@euro which should be ISO-8859-15. Checking any information from vdradmin-am (recording names, EPG etc) shows them correct (and charset on the web page is ISO-8859-1), on OSD the characters are broken. I have no idea why that happens. I probably have some conflict somewhere somehow, but if someone knows what's going on, I'd be grateful for some pointers. -- Sami Sundell ssundell(a)iki.fi

Or I can't find anything about it. --hud works however. $ vdr-sxfe --help vdr-sxfe 1.0.90-cvs (build with xine-lib 1.1.90, using xine-lib 1.1.90) <snip> -D, --hud[=flag[,flag]] Head Up Display OSD mode using compositing flags: xshape Use XShape instead of compositing opengl Use OpenGL instead of compositing -O, --opengl Use OpenGL for video and Head Up Display OSD <snip> --> vdr-sxfe --hud vdr-sxfe --hud=xshape vdr-sxfe --hud=opengl vdr-sxfe --hud=opengl --opengl > would have been loads easier if vdr-sxfe would simply act as the most > minimalistic window manager by itself and create the hud window itself.
