[PATCH] Priority of transfer-mode should not be -1
by Anssi Hannula 27 May '06

27 May '06

Hi! The transfer-mode uses always priority -1. That presents a problem: If I connect to that vdr using streamdev, it switches the first budget device off from the multiplex transfered to the FF card, although there is a second identical budget device available. Also, if I had DVB-S FF and only one DVB-T budget and had a DVB-T recording with priority 10 and Primary Limit at 20, live DVB-T video would (wouldn't it?) be severed. Klaus, shouldn't transfer-mode be also using the Primary Limit value, so that recordings with priority less than Primary Limit couldn't distract the output of primary device? Patch attached. -- Anssi Hannula

RE: [vdr] Different languaghes on right/left channel
by Anders 12 Feb '06

12 Feb '06

After an upgrade to 1.3.34 all works just fine while viewing Eurosport and Nickelodeon. But if I make a recording from Eurosport och Nickelodeon and replay that recording I get audio channels "1" and "2" instead of the "nor+fin" and "sve+dan" i get during wathcing live tv. Is this expected behaviour or have I overlooked somethins else?

LSTR output

27 Jan '06

Hi, yesterday I've run the LSTR command (VDR v1.3.34). That's the session: ========== SNIP ============= VDR vdr-1.3.34 # svdrpsend.pl lstt 220 VDR SVDRP VideoDiskRecorder 1.3.34; Tue Oct 4 20:35:09 2005 ... 250-5 9:8:-D-----:2115:2235:50:99:Desperate Housewives: ... 250 8 9:4:2005-10-04:2013:2230:50:99:Der Todestunnel - Nur die Wahrheit zählt:Bei einem Unfall im Seller-Tunnel löst ein völlig übermüdeter Lkw-Fahrer eine verheerende Brandkatastrophe aus.

Kind regards, Andreas

Patch #4: Day separator in Schedule
by Sascha Volkenandt 21 Jan '06

21 Jan '06

Hi list, I'll be releasing this and a few other patches for VDR 1.3.33, which have evolved during the last months while working on XeatreOS (a distribution based on LinVDR 0.7, which is used for the Xeatre boxes, http://www.xeatre.tv/). Some of their functionality may already be included in plugins or other patches. Nevertheless, I'd like to release them now, and let everybody decide whether they are useful or not. This one adds a non-selectable item in schedules whenever a date change occurs. Greetings, Sascha

[PATCH] fix segfault in cSkins::Message
by Wolfgang Rohdewald 27 Nov '05

27 Nov '05

this happens if the MENUTIMEOUT makes the OSD menu disappear while a message is displayed. Or if the driver/firmware is faulty and generates a timeout. That is how I found it, but I can also reproduce it without the driver timing out. maybe the access to cSkinDisplay::Current is not thread safe? What happens if it is deleted while executing SetMessage? vdr@mm:~/src$ diff -up skins.prev skins.c --- skins.prev 2005-06-30 10:17:20.000000000 +0200 +++ skins.c 2005-06-30 10:17:10.000000000 +0200 @@ -191,7 +191,8 @@ eKeys cSkins::Message(eMessageType Type, cStatus::MsgOsdClear(); } else { - cSkinDisplay::Current()->SetMessage(Type, NULL); + if (cSkinDisplay::Current()) + cSkinDisplay::Current()->SetMessage(Type, NULL); cStatus::MsgOsdStatusMessage(NULL); } } Breakpoint 1, ~cSkinDisplay (this=0x9ef49c8) at skins.c:28 28 isyslog("~cSkinDisplay"); (gdb) bt #0 ~cSkinDisplay (this=0x9ef49c8) at skins.c:28 #1 0x080ffceb in ~cSkinDisplayMenu (this=0x9ef49c8) at skinsttng.c:349 #2 0x080fb254 in ~cSkinClassicDisplayMenu (this=0x9ef49c8) at skinclassic.c:203 #3 0x080ddd2a in ~cOsdMenu (this=0x9ef75e8) at osdbase.c:97 #4 0x080d6d4c in ~cMenuMain (this=0x9ef75e8) at menu.c:124 #5 0x081235b5 in main (argc=14, argv=0xbfb8f9f4) at vdr.c:800 (gdb) c Continuing. cannot read /Musik//Deutsch/Reinhard_Mey/immer_weiter/12.Selig_sind_die_Verrückten.flac: No such file or directory Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
