Hi,

I am still using 1.6.0-2 and have patched it for FullHD OSD (http://www.vdrportal.de/board/thread.php?threadid=79647&threadview=0&hilight=&hilightuser=0&page=1 
). Frontend is xineliboutput-cvs (vdr-sxfe in other computer; tcp  
connection) and skinenigmang-0.1.0 is in use. Everything seems fine  
except that if I use antialiased fonts there is one problem that I  
have noticed only with epgsearch plugin "Schedule" view. The problem  
is that Schedule is not shown if the OSD should be really full. With  
short EPG info the schedule is shown.

The problem seems to be in buffering as I get following message in / 
var/log/messages:
Aug 25 18:04:35 server vdr: [7573] [xine..put] write_osd_command:  
socket buffer full, OSD send skipped (got 262142 ; need 302366

256k seems to be the limit.

Is it the problem in vdr, xineliboutput, epgsearch or somewhere else?  
OK I understand that these versions were not designed for fullHD  
support but anyways it would be nice fix this.

I can avoid problem by disabling anti-alias fonts or setting "Try 8bpp  
single area: no" from skinenigmang options.
