Hi Hans, desperately needed: the conversion guide :-)
It tried to find myself some answers, but there are still many open questions. The document rfc-mpeg.txt doesn`t seem to be up to date (VIDEO_CMD_PAUSE_TO_BLACK is obviosly a flag for VIDEO_CMD_FREEZE and not for VIDEO_CMD_CONTINUE). The document furthermore raises the question, but gives no answer how to scale and position the video. I made some testing with the pvr350-plugin and managed to get OSD and sound, but have only a black picture. I replaced the struct ivtvfb_ioctl_set_window /IVTVFB_IOCTL_SET_WINDOW command for setting width, height, left and top with struct v4l2_rect / VIDIOC_S_FBUF. Is this o.k.? Although I have only sound (but can see the timecode on OSD), I recognized that VIDEO_CMD_FREEZE does not stop immidiately the playback. It seems to play until the end of the gop. The code should be right: struct video_command cmd; memset(&cmd, 0, sizeof(cmd)); cmd.cmd = VIDEO_CMD_FREEZE; printf("pvr350: Freeze\n"); if (IOCTL(fd_out, VIDEO_COMMAND, &cmd) < 0) { esyslog("pvr350: Freeze error=%d", errno); } It really should freeze immidiately at the last frame. Any idea why it takes a few seconds? This shouldn`t even be possible as the API command CX2341X_DEC_PAUSE_PLAYBACK is designed to stop immidiately. Same applies to void cPvr350Device::Stop_Decode_Lastframe(void) { struct video_command cmd; memset(&cmd, 0, sizeof(cmd)); cmd.cmd = VIDEO_CMD_STOP; cmd.flags = VIDEO_CMD_STOP_IMMEDIATELY; printf("pvr350: Stop decode lastframe\n"); if (ioctl(fd_out, VIDEO_COMMAND, &cmd) < 0) { esyslog("pvr350: Stop_Decode_Lastframe error=%d", errno); } } It doesn`t stop immidiately - takes also a few seconds. And resuming playback with VIDEO_CMD_CONTINUE seems to skip a few seconds. BTW: I looked into ivtvfbctl to see how some settings have to be done with the new ioctls. But it is not up to date, still uses old ioctls (IVTVFB_IOCTL_GET_ALPHA, IVTVFB_IOCTL_SET_ALPHA, IVTVFB_IOCTL_SET_WINDOW). I also looked in ivtvtv.cpp and tested it. But there is something wrong with the display setting. I have only small vertical lines on the left and right of the display. Is there any README how to use the program? Pressing the keys (s, p, r ...) while playing an mpeg doesn` t seem to do anything. Greets, Martin -- Ist Ihr Browser Vista-kompatibel?
