Re: [vdr] Running vdr with a tunerless FF card (possibly a patch request)

2008-05-13 Thread Hanno Zulla 
Hi,

 I would like this feature added too.

There is a feature called TurnOffPrimary that's part of the extensions
patch.

http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Extensions-Patch

I cannot say if the patch is written in a style that Klaus likes or if
it needs to be rewritten, but it would be nice to see this particular
option become part of the vanilla vdr.

It would also be nice to know if it's possible to turn off the card's
tuner to avoid this problem here:

Thanks,

 In cDvbDevice::ProvidesSource(int Source) you could insert at the beginning

 where MyTunerlessFFcardsIndex would be the index of cour card.
 

 Thanks! Are there any plans to make this configurable for end-users
 (like it's done in the extensions-patch)? I'd welcome if you added that.

I have the same problem as Hanno, the FF card is too slow to handle the 
incoming data rates of some channels. If it is possible to disable the tuner I 
can install my skystar2 card again and when this works stable I will buy a 
Technotrend S2-3200. There are a few HDTV channels but I will use FF card as 
output device for SDTV and make some recordings for test on dvb-s2 HDTV 
channels.

I would like this feature added too.

Hi,

 How can I achieve that with vanilla vdr?

Any suggestion or pointers to documents would be most helpful. I tried
to find a solution in the usual places (vdr-portal, vdr-wiki) but with
very limited success.

Thanks,

Hanno

[vdr] Running vdr with a tunerless FF card (possibly a patch request)

2008-05-05 Thread Hanno Zulla 
Hi,

here's my setup:

- one old FF DVB-C card
- one new DVB-C Buget card with a CAM
- another new DVB-C Budget card (but without a CAM)

The FF card is too slow the handle the incoming data rates of some
channels. I know about [1], but don't want to break my old card with my
limited soldering skills.


So I want to use the FF card as output, only.

I also want to bind encrypted channels to the CAM-card.

I want the system to use both cards for non-encrypted channels.

How can I achieve that with vanilla vdr?


(Right now, I use a patch [2] that contains the ability to turn off the
FF tuner [3]. It works, but it's not an elegant solution.)


Thanks,

Hanno
