==Description==
Plugins are small software programs, which are used by another program to extend its functionality. Plugins, such as those for VDR, are typically implemented as shared libraries and cannot run standalone.

VDR provides an easy to use plugin interface that allows additional functionality to be added to the program by implementing a dynamically loadable library file. This interface allows programmers to develop additional functionality for VDR completely separate from the core VDR source, without the need of patching the original VDR code (and all the problems of correlating various patches).

==List==
Many plugins were written for VDR and it is most likely that this list here is not up-to-date.

As you might possibly know there are different version of VDR available, the stable branch, designated for the end-user with a fixed plugin interface and the developer branch for the advanced and adventures user where everything is in a state of flux.

As the developer versions are normally rather stable most users tend to use them and hence many developers adapt their plugins to the latest VDR developer version. But this list doesn't show the VDR version needed for a plugin.

==Description==
Plugins are small software programs, which are used by another program to extend its functionality. Plugins, such as those for VDR, are typically implemented as shared libraries and cannot run standalone.

VDR provides an easy to use plugin interface that allows additional functionality to be added to the program by implementing a dynamically loadable library file. This interface allows programmers to develop additional functionality for VDR completely separate from the core VDR source, without the need of patching the original VDR code (and all the problems of correlating various patches).

==List==
Many plugins were written for VDR and it is most likely that this list here is not up-to-date.

As you might possibly know there are different version of VDR available, the stable branch, designated for the end-user with a fixed plugin interface and the developer branch for the advanced and adventures user where everything is in a state of flux.

As the developer versions are normally rather stable most users tend to use them and hence many developers adapt their plugins to the latest VDR developer version. But this list doesn't show the VDR version needed for a plugin.

==Description==
Plugins are small software programs, which are used by another program to extend its functionality. Plugins, such as those for VDR, are typically implemented as shared libraries and cannot run standalone.

VDR provides an easy to use plugin interface that allows additional functionality to be added to the program by implementing a dynamically loadable library file. This interface allows programmers to develop additional functionality for VDR completely separate from the core VDR source, without the need of patching the original VDR code (and all the problems of correlating various patches).

==List==
Many plugins were written for VDR and it is most likely that this list here is not up-to-date.

As you might possibly know there are different version of VDR available, the stable branch, designated for the end-user with a fixed plugin interface and the developer branch for the advanced and adventures user where everything is in a state of flux.

As the developer versions are normally rather stable most users tend to use them and hence many developers adapt their plugins to the latest VDR developer version. But this list doesn't show the VDR version needed for a plugin.

Svdrpservice-plugin

2006-09-19T10:57:25Z

213.179.141.170:

==Description==

Makes it easy for other local plugins to access an [[Svdrp]] server. The [[Servicedemo-plugin|VDR service interface]] is used to access svdrpservice. It offers two service calls: One to open or close an SVDRP connection and the other for sending commands. The server reply is made available as a list of lines. Check the plugin's README for some sample code or look at one of the plugins which already use svdrpservice.

A plugin developer who needs connections to an [[Svdrp]] server can save quite a bit of time when using the Svdrpservice-plugin. With Svdrpservice it is even possible to share a single connection among multiple local plugins which is important as long as an [[Svdrp]] server cannot handle multiple connections simultaneously.

Besides [[Svdrp]] the plugin can also connect to the VTP port of a [[Streamdev-plugin|streamdev server]]. VTP offers only a subset of the [[Svdrp]] commands, but it can handle concurrent connections.

It does not make sense to install the Svdrpservice-plugin unless it is required by some other plugin like e.g. [[Epgsync-plugin|epgsync]], [[Femon-plugin|femon]] or [[Remoteosd-plugin|remoteosd]].



==Software requirements==
* vdr >= 1.3.30

==Installation==

213.179.141.170: /* Software requirements */

==Description==
[[Image:Femon-plugin.jpg|thumb|Screenshot]]
Shows DVB signal information on the OSD. Since release 1.1.0, femon does not only support local DVB cards. An [[Svdrp]] server on the network can be used as datasource as well. This is an interesting feature for those running [[streamdev-plugin|streamdev-client]] on their VDR.

==Notes==

* The plugin supports only those DVB cards with _one_ frontend, because I haven't yet figured howto do it without patching the VDR core.
* Disable the stream analyze to speed up heavy zapping sessions.
* The signal strength and signal-to-noise ratio values are comparable only between the same brand/model frontends. Due to the lack of proper frontend specifications those values cannot be calculated into any real units.
* If the OSD isn't visible, you've configured the OSD height too big or too small. Please, try to adjust the variable on the setup page before writing any bug reports. NTSC users should use a shrinked default OSD height by compiling the plugin with: make FEMON_NTSC=1
