Description

vdr-clipinc is the name for some scripts/tools that automatically cut video clips from VDR recordings. Alike Savvy, but Savvy uses OCR recognition and is for Get the Clip broadcasts (tm) from Viva Plus (tm). vdr-clipinc uses the Tobit ClipInc service.

Hardware requirements

Software requirements

Installation

Firstly a license key is to obtained from http://www.geschickter-als-kaufen.de/hilfe.htm. This service is free of charge.

The key has the following format, but we only need the first part

xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx
^^^^^^^^^^^

After installing

mkdir /etc/vdr/scripts
cd /etc/vdr/scripts
tar -xvzf clipinc-<VERSION>.tar.gz
cd clipinc

the vdrrecinfo.pl has to be adopted to the personal needs. Now the directory for the clips is created

mkdir /var/spool/video/Clips

and the license key is put into the clipinc.pl file

my $LICENSE = "xxxxx-xxxxx";  # Put the first 11 digits of your license here
      # Get your license for free at:
      # http://www.geschickter-als-kaufen.de/hilfe.htm
      # (scroll down to "Anfordern einer Lizenznummer")

That's it. Everything is started through the rwrapper.sh, which is handed over to VDR with

-r /usr/local/bin/rwrapper.sh
