xmltv2vdr.pl
by Dominic Evans 14 Aug '15

14 Aug '15

I don't know if anyone else still uses the xmltv2vdr.pl perl script for piping XMLTV data into VDR's epg, but I've been keeping a version of it updated with some additional function here: https://github.com/oldmanuk/xmltv2vdr These are the changes since the last version (1.0.9) was released on the mailing list - Add support for XMLTV episode-num. Currently gets added as EPG entry 'sub-title', if no existing subtitle has been found, in the form sXXeXX (e.g., Bones~s01e01). - Change default SVDRP port number to 6419. - Better support for ATSC/PVRINPUT EPG sources. - Allow multiple channels to have the same XMLTV channel id, useful for multi input (e.g., DVB-T, DVB-S) systems where you want to feed VDR the same info. Previously only a 1:1 mapping was permitted. I've also received a pull request from someone who rewrote the whole script to be a lot more readable and to use full XML parsing (rather than just line-by-line scraping), but I still need to investigate what the performance penalty is before accepting that in.

VDR & Multiple frontends
by Eddi 25 Jul '15

25 Jul '15

Hi, I wrote a patch to Steve Toth hvr3000 repository, so my FlyDVB Trio can use multiple frontend. So I get: /dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0 /dev/dvb/adapter0/demux1 /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr1 /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0 /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend1 /dev/dvb/adapter0/net0 /dev/dvb/adapter0/net1 The bus of the two frontend is shared, isn't possible to get access to both frontend simultaneously, so I get an -EBUSY error by trying accessing frontend1 if frontend0 is in use. VDR doesn't support yet the second frontend, and it try to get exclusive access on both frontend on start, so the second frontend is inusabile. Vdr should probe for multiple frontend at start, and access frontend only on channel change. Please can someone give me an help to wrote a patch for this issue? Best Regards, Eddi

vdr-plugin-IPTV not working with vdr-plugin-xvdr and XBMC
by Paulo Louro 27 Oct '13

27 Oct '13

Hello guys/girls, I have been trying to make iptv plugin to work with xvdr and xbmc, but i haven't manage to have any success. Xvdr is a plugin that needs a 100% complete TS to work, including PAT and PMT tables. By searching and "debuging" iptv and xvdr plugins code, I found out that the problem may be related with the filtering of PIDs, but i cant manage to understand how does the filtering system works. Is there any documentation or Howto example on how to program a plugin that implements cDevice interface on the right way? Some extra comments can be found on Pipelka github: https://github.com/pipelka/xbmc-addon-xvdr/issues/64 Regards,Louro

Livebuffer for VDR 2.0
by René 13 Jul '13

13 Jul '13

Hi all! Now that VDR 2.0 is just around the corner i would like to check if there is any progress to the great livebuffer that was back in the 1.6 days? I tested a 1.7.x version some long time ago, but that did not work as well as the "original" version.. René

I am trying to play vdr recordings with a raspberry pi and the not edited recording play well, but a edited recording don't play. Is there are any differences between a not edited recording and a edited one? The recordings are made with vdr 2.0. Thanks. Jose Alberto

Converting videos into vdr TS format
by Laurence Abbott 30 May '13

30 May '13

Hi, Has anyone worked out a simple way of converting, e.g. part of a DVD or any miscellaneous video into an MPEG-TS that vdr is happy to play? I had a bit of a play with ffmpeg and mencooder but never managed to generate something that vdr would play! Cheers, Laz

by Tobi 26 May '13

26 May '13

Hi! Does anybody know a tool which allows to insert still images at a specific position for a specific duration in a VDR TS recording? e.g. I would like to fill in missing frames that happened due to recording errors. bye, Tobias

[ANNOUNCE] VDR version 2.0.2 released
by Klaus Schmidinger 20 May '13

20 May '13

VDR version 2.0.2 is now available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/vdr-2.0.2.tar.bz2 A 'diff' against the previous stable version is available at ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-2.0.1-2.0.2.diff MD5 checksums: 5359cae7e14671cc9a3c690d45d8e0a2 vdr-2.0.2.tar.bz2 f4dfc7e6e9170cf56a10b1a2183e84a3 vdr-2.0.1-2.0.2.diff This version fixes a few minor bugs that came up after the release of version 2.0.1. The changes since version 2.0.1: - Fixed multiple occurrences of the same directory in the recordings list in case there are directories that only differ in non-alphanumeric characters (was broken by "Fixed selecting the last replayed recording in the Recordings menu in case there are folders and plain recordings with names that differ only in non-alphanumeric characters" in version 1.7.36). - Fixed displaying the frame number when setting an editing mark (thanks to Thomas Günther). - Fixed no longer generating any editing marks if the edited recording results in just one single sequence (reported by Halim Sahin). - Fixed an error message when parsing SCR values in diseqc.conf. - Fixed an unexpected RCS version tag in the newplugin script. - Fixed an endless loop in the DrawEllipse() functions for very small ellipses (reported by Stefan Braun). - Fixed a crash in the LCARS skin's main menu in case there is no current channel (reported by Dominique Dumont). Have fun! Klaus
