Hello,
before I start to test this new version (using 0.46g at the moment) I
would like to know if its necessary to apply the following patches to
vdr-1.2.6 or if they give an additional functionality.
Hmmm ... reading the docs would help. OK, lets cite out of the
file PROBLEMS:
[...]
* This plugin for VDR 1.2.6 and higher requires ALSA
0.9.0 and higher. For MP2 Audio replay functionality you may
apply the patch for VDR 1.2.6 (vdr-1.2.6-mp2PlayAudio-v4.diff).
The other patch (vdr-1.2.6-audio.dif) reduces the load caused
by the EPG scanning thread and add some compile optimizations.
Note that some parts of this patch can be already done in
newer VDR versions. Don't patch without checking before!
[...]
And as you read from the ChangeLog: VDR 1.2.6 already includes
the STC interface ;^)
For all which have connected the HW S/P-DIF out of the DVB card
to the S/P-DIF in of their sound card ... you may set the Mp2Enable
to Off as mentioned in vdr-bitstreamout.5. Otherwise you may not
note any difference (beside an initial short shutter sometimes in
the audio for delay `0').
For those who want to use the main menue entry, please add the
option `-o' as described in the manual page vdr-bitstreamout.5.
