Re: [vdr] 1.7.12 w/ FF card on old Linux + S2API wrapper

I could be wrong but I think the FF change may not be 100% yet. Hm, 1.7.10 showed greater success (i.e. last version before dvbsddevice) ... the DVB-C FF worked fine - video and OSD rendered OK, but the DVB-T card than refused to tune to anything at all. Ah well, 1.4.7 works OK for me so I'll just hang on until I can justify updating the entire setup for HDMI. gdh ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
Re: [vdr] Tuning USB
Hello, further investigation shows that it only affects some channels, and only if recording.

Re: [vdr] Tuning USB
Hello All, The issue was not related to USB whatsoever - my channels.conf was the issue. I created it with scan from the dvb-utils package. Turns out that scan -o vdr outputs the channel frequency in kHz, where vdr expects it in Hz. Obviously, the vdr still tunes but the recording part is baffled.

However, I just want to note that some channels use significantly more bitrate and thus require more bandwidth. This can be a problem when bandwidth may already be near it's limits. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

[vdr] DM-8000S or HTPC ?
Hello, I'd like to buy/create a new dual-DVB-s2 system, WAF compatible. I thought about the DM-8000S http://www.dm8000.co.uk/ which is quiete expensive... My other choice would be to create a new HTPC with something like an Asus P7H57D-V EVO http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=CadI5xNLwMYopFyJ or another H57 mainboard like http://geizhals.eu/?cat=mbp4_1156asuch=H57 with an Intel Clarkdale-CPUs (i3-xxx or i5-6xx) such that I don't need a graphic card. And of course a dual DVB-S2 card, like a Mystique TV Homepage - SaTiX, CaBiX, TeRiX, HDTV, S2, H.264 http://www.mystique-tv.de/ and a good HD and a good case. Such a config would of course cost less than the DM-8000S and would be much more full of power (and allow to use VDR) any thought about it ?
