No data in 8 seconds, queuing no signal image
by Peter Münster 27 Feb '13

27 Feb '13

Hi, Sometimes, when starting VDR, I get this message: "[input_vdr] No data in 8 seconds, queuing no signal image" And no video. When switching channels of the same transponder, nothing happens. But switching to a channel of another transponder (channel 7), video comes back. How could I avoid this problem please, when VDR starts automatically to start a recording? Here some log messages: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- Feb 25 21:00:03 media vdr: [2916] [input_vdr] No data in 8 seconds, queuing no signal image Feb 26 15:14:17

info file
by Marx 27 Feb '13

Hello Would it be possible to somewhat generate nfo file automatically with each recording? I know vdrnfofs which do it on-the-fly and I imagine such file could be generated automatically (optionally) with each recording. It seems very easy, because such nfo contains only title and plot. The idea after it is that vdrnfofs doesn't allow editing of nfo, while such nfo generated automatically by VDR could be freely editable. And also it would be possible to download fanart etc to recording directory. I know VNSI and that it works well with XBMC (allows for quite good scraping) but I would prefer offline metadata. There are times when I work on VDR switching it off and then recordings are unavailable for XBMC. If hardware brokes - VDR even doesn't start complaining for lack of hardware. And I can't fine tune my nfo file when scraper do something ot fully or wrong. Maybe it's idea for new plugin? Marx

why does the Makefile not install all include files
by Martin Gansser 26 Feb '13

26 Feb '13

why does the Makefile of e.q. vdr-1.7.32 only install the includes from include/vdr include/libsi and not the dvb* and libhd* files ? vdr Makefile: # Includes: install-includes: include-dir @mkdir -p $(DESTDIR)$(INCDIR) @cp -pLR include/vdr include/libsi $(DESTDIR)$(INCDIR) ... I miss the following include files to compile a vdr plugin /usr/include/vdr/dvbsddevice/dvbsdffdevice.h /usr/include/vdr/dvbhddevice/dvbhdffdevice.h /usr/include/vdr/dvbhddevice/hdffcmd.h /usr/include/vdr/dvbhddevice/libhdffcmd/hdffcmd.h /usr/include/vdr/dvbhddevice/libhdffcmd//hdffcmd_av.h /usr/include/vdr/dvbhddevice/libhdffcmd/hdffcmd_generic.h /usr/include/vdr/dvbhddevice/libhdffcmd/hdffcmd_hdmi.h /usr/include/vdr/dvbhddevice/libhdffcmd/hdffcmd_mux.h /usr/include/vdr/dvbhddevice/libhdffcmd/hdffcmd_osd.h /usr/include/vdr/dvbhddevice/libhdffcmd/hdffcmd_remote.h thanks martinkg

VDR on mipsel STB
by Magnus Sirwiö 25 Feb '13

25 Feb '13

Anyone know if there has been some work done lately on a port of vdr to the mipsel STB platform e.g. the Vu+ boxes. There are some reference in the mailing list from Alez and Franz Ks in may 2011 in the following thread. http://www.mail-archive.com/vdr@linuxtv.org/msg14386.html<http://www.mail-archive.com/vdr%40linuxtv.org/msg14386.html> I have gotten to about the same point as Alez of having vdr running with the vompserver plugin and are able to view freeview channels on both hauppauge mvp and raspberry pi clients. Franz Ks. however claimed in the thread to have osd and video/audio on his Vu+ using a slightly modified dvbufs9xx plugin. Information is very scarce however and I cannot find any information about how this was achieved. The Vu+ Ultimo is a very capable box that equipped with an extra dual dub-s2 card would be a nice silent, energy efficient and price worthy backend (less than 500€) with four tuners capable of recording/streaming 6 channels concurrently.

RFC: Adding CPPFLAGS to Makefile
by Tobi 24 Feb '13

24 Feb '13

Hello! Klaus asked me to put this up for discussion: At least Debian and Debian derivatives provide standard values for CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS/LDFLAGS/CPPFLAGS/FFLAGS. VDR's Makefile does not use CPPFLAGS (C-Pre-Processor flags) right now. Not a big deal and easy to work-around, but for the sake of providing a "standards-conform" Makefile I suggest adding CPPFLAGS as well. Please see the attached patch. It's only a suggestions and Klaus already indicated that such a change might not make it into 2.0.0, so please don't panic, that all plugin-Makefiles must be changed once again :-) bye, Tobias

VDR translation and msgstr size
by Bernard Jaulin 24 Feb '13

24 Feb '13

Hi all, For a lot of msgstr translations (po files) the size are often lengthy. In VDR setup menu the sentences could not completlely appears. Many languages are less consice than English. How can we improve VDR to be better for this little issue... Maybe : - Abbreviate the translations - An option to change the width frame size in VDR Menu -> Setup - Scrolling horizontal line when selected - Always use English :-) Cheers, Bernard.
