Re: [vdr] Changing location of /srv/vdr
Chris Matchett wrote: I am running vdr on Fedora Core 6 and found that I couldn't start vdr as a service. I believe the problem is the fact that the default directory for vdr is /srv/vdr which doesn't exist and causes the service to hang. How do I change this default so vdr runs as a service? from man 8 vdr: -v dir, --video=dir Use dir as video directory. The default is /srv/vdr. If you are using the RPM provided by Fedora Extras, you can change this in /etc/sysconfig/vdr, there should be a line starting with VDR_OPTIONS. But why don't you just create /srv/vdr?

[vdr] Is the remote control of a WinTV Nova-T PCI able to power on the computer
Hi all, The subject says it all. Since the PCI card has an always-lit LED on it, I wondered if the IR receiver was also powered and could turn on the computer, using the green power button on the remote. Since it's not working for me, are there any BIOS settings to allow that ? TIA, -- NH ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

I have tested your patch severl times in a row just now and while VDR did not crash once, mplayer playback was aborted about 20% of the time when the timer was triggered. This doesn't (or hasn't so far) happen with Anssi's patch however. What are the differences between when/how he closes the file descriptors and when/how you are?

Re: [vdr] VDRAdmin behind Apache2
I'm using apache2.2 as shipped with Debian/etch and have the following in my config: ProxyRequests Off Proxy * Order deny,allow Allow from all /Proxy ProxyPass / http://localhost:40404/ ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:40404/ Thanks for the help. I just realized that I am using mod-auth-security on my apache2 server and it appears the following line in my apache2.conf is the problem: # Prevent XSS atacks (HTML/Javascript injection) SecFilter (.|n)+ After commenting out this filter, it all seems to work now.

The difference of how/when the fd's were being closed was the only thing I can think of that may be different between your patch and Anssi's. No other changes were made so I'm really at a loss why your version of the fix randomly aborts playback. Can you think of any further tests I can do?

Re: [vdr] PANIC: watchdog timer expired - exiting
Well if the PC clock was correct all the time I would probably not have to use the set time function :) Yes, but typically PC HW clock does not drift so much. You could use hwclock --systohc (and possibly --utc or --localtime) after letting the vdr to set the system clock. I am sure this would fix the problem. However, is this really the way it should work? The clock is four minutes off, let's PANIC? To be honest, I have seen a lot of worse PC clocks around than the one I have on my spare computer ...
