by Tobi 10 Mar '13

It has been far too long since the last ttxtsubs release, so I thought it's time for a new one. A million thanks to all contributors: Ville Skyttä, Jussi Tepponen, Matti Horila, Dimitri Petrovski (Please let me know, if I missed someone here..) The changes: * Removed obsolete (unused since 0.2.0) setup options: DVB Source Selection, Live Delay, Record Subtitles, and old workaround for French channels * Added hard-coded workaround for french channels where page numbes 850-859 must be mapped to 880-889 (Thx to Jussi Tepponen) * Some code refactorings * Adapt to VDR 1.7.26 API changes. * Updated patch for VDR 1.7.38 * Sync subtitles using PTS (Thx to Matti Horila and Dimitar Petrovski) * Added option for setting the left/center/right justification of subtitles (Thx to Jussi Tepponen) - Enable teletext subtitles in VDR patch by default As always: Any help is welcome!

read-only video directory
by Peter Münster 10 Mar '13

10 Mar '13

Hi, How is it possible, to mount the video directory in read-only mode? I want to use a slave vdr like this: vdr -Pstreamdev-client -Pxineliboutput -v/net/media/data/video But it does not work, because /net/media/data is mounted read-only. The slave vdr should not write anything, just read the recordings. TIA for any hints, -- Peter

Call for translations for VDR version 2.0.0: one more string needed
by Klaus Schmidinger 06 Mar '13

06 Mar '13

While implementing an option to turn on/off sorting folders first in the Recordings menu, one more string was necessary and needs to be translated: "Always sort folders first" The patch for this new option can be found at http://www.vdr-portal.de/board17-developer/board97-vdr-core/p1130105-featur… but it would suffice if you could just send me (or post here) the translation of the string shown above. Thanks Klaus

EEPG plugin, summaries in Polish?
by Teemu Suikki 05 Mar '13

05 Mar '13

Hi, I'm using: vdr-plugin-eepg-0.0.5.git20121123 It works very well. However I'm wondering, why do some Sky UK channels have summaries in polish? :) Where do they come from? For example, FTA channel CBS Action, clip from my EPG, C S28.2E-2-2311-52007 CBS Action E 772 1362510000 3600 30 FF T Walker, Texas Ranger S ROZRYWKA INNE - 60' D Chuck Norris fights crime and helps the community as the eponymous Walker. Garrett Stone, who Walker helps put away years prior, is paroled and resumes his life of crime. S6 Ep3/23|Category: ROZRYWKA INNE G 60 X 2 01 eng X 1 01 und 4:3 e Is this related to the snippet from eepg-plugin README: "-On Sky Italy and Sky UK, a lot of "summaries not found" are reported. This is because it is not (yet) known where the "summary available" flag is coded in the OpenTV protocol used, so all titles are assumed to have a summary available." Perhaps in that case, some random summary is used from some previous scan? -- Teemu Suikki http://www.z-power.fi/

missing library in Makefile?
by Alexander Aring 05 Mar '13

05 Mar '13

Hi, I got a linker error for libiconv functions in vdr-1.7.39. This is used by libsi/si.c and tools.c. I fixed this with adding "-liconv" in LIBS compiler flags. I don't know if there is a standard behavior in some systems which adding this library per default. I only want to give a hint to this issue. If this is true, we need to add libiconv in INSTALL file. Regards Alex

plugin for DVD images
by Peter Münster 05 Mar '13

05 Mar '13

Hi, I've just installed a new VDR-system with xineliboutput (openSUSE-packages), and now I'm looking for a possibility to watch DVD-images with best integration into VDR. Unfortunately the media-player of xineliboutput crashes often and does not select automatically the main-film. I don't need DVD-navigation, just an easy possibility to chose language and subtitles (as in smplayer). Which one of all the plugins (vdr-play, vdr-dvd, externalplayer, mplayer, etc.) could do the job please? (I've just tried vdr-play, but no success...) TIA for any hints, -- Peter
