Re: [vdr] Small VDR-streamdev patch for Popcorn Hour NMT
Hi, I want to ask you about actual state of streamdev-server for NMT Popcornhour (A-110). I have vdr-1.7.0 and streamdev-0.3.4 with patch patpmt_first_v5.diff. Streamimg to Popcornhour is practically O.K. (without image failure), but sometimes popcornhour freezes and hard restart is needed. And sometimes it takes a long time at buffering (between select channel and start playing). VLC clients works fine. I want to ask you about some additional patches for streamdev or some advices for solve this issues.

Well, I agree that storing meida files separately would be wiser, but being able to point to those files from within the EPG.data file without abusing description or other fields with tags-reinvention will be helpful. The use is simple, show more information for programs. Many sities of the channels provide that information already, including pictures and movie trailers. There is also IMDB that can be used.

It doesn't look like a glitch. If nobody else is seeing this, I have to assume that my CAM stuff is more unstable than I am aware of.

I agree that its probably a provider fault. Anyway, I think a configuration that will allow disabling EPG from DVB might be useful for those who retrieve all EPG data from the net, that in most cases contains more data than transmitted by the provider. By the way, if we already discussing EPG... I think the epg.data is very limited. I would like to see an option to integrate pictures or even movies in that file. Ofcause I could place tags in description and have a plugin that could parse those tags and show the pictures stored somewhere else, but I think it should all be located in the same place. > > > > > > I use s script that updates those channels from internet, so > > I don't > > > > mind to disable EPG update received on the channel. > > > > > > You can set the "table id" of these events to 0 (see man 5 > vdr). > > > > > > The problem is not with overwriting the data, but appending the > wrong > > > data for that channel. > > > I see both script inserted and DVB transmitted data that are > differ. > > > > > > Is there such "table id" setting per channel and not per EPG entry? > > > > No, this is per EPG event, not per channel. > > > > I'll probably patch the code for now to disable the received EPG > processing. > > > > But as I see it, there is an issue even when the EPG is correctly > > transmitted by a provider, for example: > > What VDR will do when there is a change in the program and there is a > > delay in transmission of some program? > > Will it have 2 entries for the same program or update the previous entry? > > VDR will update/replace all EPG entries according to the new tables. > There shouldn't be double entries. > > > If EPG time is in UTC, than that's a mystery how should those coupled > > channels be handled. > > As I said, each channel has its own SID, and therefore its very own > EPG data, which needs to be adjusted to the actual broadcast times > of that channel. > > As an example: if you have two channels, say ABC and ABC+1, where ABC+1 > broadcasts everything one hour later that ABC, then if the air time of > event XY is 8:00 for channel ABC, it needs to be 9:00 for channel ABC+1. > All times given in UTC, of course. > > Klaus > > ___ > vdr mailing list > vdr@linuxtv.org > http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr > ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

VDR will update/replace all EPG entries according to the new tables. There shouldn't be double entries. > If EPG time is in UTC, than that's a mystery how should those coupled > channels be handled. As I said, each channel has its own SID, and therefore its very own EPG data, which needs to be adjusted to the actual broadcast times of that channel. As an example: if you have two channels, say ABC and ABC+1, where ABC+1 broadcasts everything one hour later that ABC, then if the air time of event XY is 8:00 for channel ABC, it needs to be 9:00 for channel ABC+1. All times given in UTC, of course. Klaus ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

Efforts should go into making the devices provide the actual PTS of the most recently presented frame - anything else is just trying to cure symptoms and not a real solution.

My comment has based on only observation and reelbox-plugin use. I can assume that some part of issue is buffering start, system needs some time to fill buffer with data and before that you can not get real delay value. One item for these "long buffer" output devices is fast forward and rewind. It is quit difficult to skip commersials or find start of the program with 6s delay on video path. When user see video and press play, VDR is delay*speed over that spot. Vdr should compensate this and jump where user thinks to be on video. -- Vesa ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

[vdr] vdpau ouput to pal tv
I am having some issues trying out vdpau with an nvidia card on the svideo output; I'm getting testing. Does anyone have any tips on how to fix this? It seems to be a persistent problem for a number of users, yet some people claim to have fixed it. -- Torgeir Veimo torg...@pobox.com ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
