As I understand it every plugin must be changed whenever VDR introduces changes in that area and if the VDR compiling user doesn't use (and adopt) Make.config. I guess this one got lost in the summer break... My preferred solution to this would be if all plugins would include some global configuration into their makefiles for setting global default parameters for VDR and plugins. The best order would be to call such a Make.global before calling an existing Make.config, so that Make.config can still override these rules. Until then, the only way is to add some version dependent defines before calling Make.config. At some point in the past I said that I won't interfere with that whole Makefile, Make.config, Make.whatever stuff any more, because whatever we change, there will likely be somebody who wants it different ;-) So if you agree on a patch, just send it. By the way: The current newplugin script also doesn't add largefile defines in case that no Make.config exists. Added for version 1.7.11.

Re: [vdr] CAM auto resetting - feature request??

It is possible it's only on certain channels, and only one of the CAMs - it only happens very rarely So you have 2 identical CAMs (Alphacrypt) (with the same firmware?), and exactly one of them sometimes fails, right? Have you tried swapping the two CAMs? This should tell us whether the problem is with the CAM or with the CI adapter.

If I manually change VDR to not auto update and put the APID in then it squeeks rather than works. However, streaming to mplayer using streamdev seems to work. (It does the same this with OTA channels too - although I can only get 4 with a portable antenna.) ATSC uses only AC-3 audio, so the Apid should be 0 and the Dpid needs to be set appropriately. Since the sound squeaks, whatever value you have set for the Apid should be the Dpid. For example, WIFR-Wx:495000:M256:C:0:1984:0;Dpid:0:0:2:0:0:0 Perfect...

Do you use an Xtreamer device as a frontend, what are you using to achive this? I am using a PCH-A110 device with vdr-ui running on a separate server (for better integration). Channels are served using the standard streamdev plugin. The only drawback is the necessity to quit (close) the running stream and go back to the vdr-ui selection page each time you want to change to another channel. I have managed to build a jsp playlist with all VDR channels, but channel change is not quick enough to bring a good `surfing` experience with this method. Using xineliboutput you can watch the `live` stream and change channel without quitting the player but the mono pmt parser fails sometime to get the new pids (tested with soft and hard demuxerm. m2ts and pes container). I am convinced that this is the best way to have an acceptable switching time between 2 channels reusing existing player with low key/remote dev (directfb keyb app to redirect remote key to VDR app). I tried this with vdr-1.7.9 and as soon as I switch the channel the Xtreamer device stops. I still need to press stop and play again. Are you using the cvs version of the plugin? If not, you should give it a try. There is a fix which send a new PMT with relevant pids each time a channel is performed. You can verify using a tool like dvbsnoop. If the screen is still black, it is a problem of the PCH player. Even if the new channel is not playing, going back to previous one must show the proper picture. ___ 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
