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

recording problem: two timers on same channel are using both tuners of S2-6400
by Seeberg-Hinrichs, Ingo 22 Aug '13

22 Aug '13

Hello everybody, during my periodic recording of "Criminal Minds" on SAT.1 (on Thursdays) I have periodically the situation that both tuners are blocked and I cannot view other channels at live TV. The first recording has not yet ended, the next recording on the same channel is starting minutes before the transmission of the next episode. Timer 1: 20:12 - 21:20, Channel 5 (Sat.1) Timer 2: 21:12 - 22:20, Channel 5 (Sat.1) No live TV on other transponders is possible (RTL, ARD, others). I am wondering whether other users also have this problem using VDR 2.0.2. If I remember it right the behavior was okay prior the final releases and the release candidates before. But I cannot specify it definitively. I am unsure about this may have to do with bonding changes (bonding does not apply in my simple environment), or about the fix introduced in VDR 1.4.42 (fix pending timers). Perhaps it's even older and I did not realize because we do not watch that much live TV :-) Best regards, Ingo PS: at this opportunity I would say many thanks to everybody contributing to this great project, good job at developing this great piece of software!

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

Re: [vdr] [Dxr3-devel] Dxr3 modify to support Raspberry PI mpg2 decoder?
by YUP 26 Jun '13

26 Jun '13

Interesting. I'm planning to buy one Raspberry Pi device, but I hve never thougt that old dxr3 code can be used again! I still use one dxr3 card (em8300) in my vdr stuff, it works pretty well. Probably there is a way to use dxr3 code for RaspPi. Damn, I'm not a coder... I suppose you should ask Christian (astriancoder) http://projects.vdr-developer.org/users/35 .
