  I guess you must apply it on 1.7.16 also , recording DVB-T in France works
  perfectly with this, checked on my vdr 1.7.15

 Hi,

 thanks for proposing a solution. I remember this discussion but was not
 interested at that time HDTV recording works like a charm. What does not
 work is gulli for my kids.

 Will try the patch to see if it change somethings. Will probably upgrade
 to 1.7.16 before.

hello,

i have the same issue with channel arte (dvb-s). if i start recording, vdr 
makes an emergency exit - recording length is 0 bytes.
i tried to bind channel arte to an other dvb-device, but the problem persists. 
i also tried this patch on remux.c, but it didn't 
help.

* my system is an ubuntu 9.10
* vdr-1.7.15
* using vdr-xine as output-device
* dvb-devices: 1x TT 3200, 1x Cine S2 dual

i have the same log entries:

ERROR: video data stream broken
emergency exit requested - shutting down
emergency exit!

ciax

[vdr] vdr cpu usage

2010-10-20 Thread Theunis Potgieter
Hi mailing list, perhaps this question was asked on other forums
before (maybe even in a different language). Google failed to bring up
search results for vdr idle cpu usage. I have vdr 1.7.14 running with
the only plugins dummydevice and streamdev-server, no client is
currently connected and on my Pentium 3 machine 1GHz, it uses between
10% ~ 15% cpu idling. This is also after a restart of vdr  and
tuning to a channel that has got no video and audio. So now my
question is, why would vdr use even more than 1% cpu usage, compared
to other services like mediatomb that if not in use is about 0.1%. Is
this a requirement that vdr uses this much all the time?

I'm not trying to start a flame war or who is to blame but are there
ways I can inspect to see which plugin is causing it, if is a plugin
to blame.

It is definitly not VDR itself, but rather one of the plugins. My VDR
(1.7.15) with several Plugins (skinenigmang,femon,streamdev-server,xine)
consumes less than 1% CPU when idle (but tuned to a valid station), and
less than 5% when a xine client is connected (HD Channel!)

CPU is a Core 2 6600 (2.4 Ghz)

 Hi,

 here you can find new version of gotox patch for vdr-1.7.13. I've added new
 menuentry - GotoxMaxSwing - max possible angle of rotor move. This set
 automatically maximum wait time for rotor move (tohether with rotor speed)
 instead of 60s as it was in previous versions.

Hi,

I'm afraid that this patch is intended only for one card.

You could check those time consuming VDR thread(s) via the htop 
command and then look for the corresponding thread id(s) from your 
VDR/system log to check what they really are.
