Yes, it's (still) vdr 1.7.15 and xinelib 1.0.7 I'll give the alter decoder a try next weekend.

Somebody used to run a site back in 2009 at http://dtt.me.uk/ that generated a very handy table showing resolution and average bitrate information for all the DVB-T channels in the UK.

Re: [vdr] Plugin for MHEG (BBC RedButton service)

If you do not want to set one up yourself and you need a host you could use for example [2]. Most of the code was written by Simon Kilvington as a stand-alone program, and I want to co-operate with him, so I need to talk to him about this. Did you ever get anywhere with this? I'm thinking, with both the Olympics and Wimbledon coming up shortly, it would be useful to get MHEG up-and-running on my VDR install, so I was going to try out your plugin later. It would be useful to at least have a bug tracker available so that I can raise any issues I find.

On a related note, I couldn't see a single tar on your website, so I grabbed the source files from the http dir listing and packaged it up as vdr-plugin-redbutton.tar.bz2 to make it easier for people to download in one go.

Re: [vdr] POLL: epg behavior when guide data is missing
Hi, Am 01.05.2012 17:45, schrieb VDR User: Hi ML. I had noticed that several of my channels were missing from the epg list. It turns out this is because VDR will exclude any channels from epg list that don't have epg data. It made more sense to me that rather than excluding those channels, they be listed with No data available so the channels are at least still accessible from the epg list. Otherwise the user has to exit the epg, navigate to the channels list and find them there. Since it's probably safe to assume most users spend most of their time in the epg list when in the osd, doesn't it also make sense that the full channel list should be available there as a matter of convenience? Klaus recommended I pose this to the ML and if see if others agreed. If so, he'll adopt the idea. So in consideration of the above, do you think the epg list should display _all_ channels, including those without any guide data, giving those channels No data available. Or, do you think the epg list should exclude channels without guide data and leave those channels only accessible elsewhere? Thanks for your input Make it configurable and everyone is happy since there will be always someone who is not your opinion.

It happens only when I play back new channels like 3sat HD with xine. and what can we do to fix this? I installed the latest *xine-lib/xine-lib-1.2-vdpau* http://anonscm.debian.org/hg/xine-lib/xine-lib-1.2-vdpau/ from http://anonscm.debian.org/hg/xine-lib/xine-lib-1.2-vdpau/archive/tip.tar.bz2 However, with that xine-lib, xine-ui now shows some of the buttons (vcd, dvb) twice, leaving no more room for the vdr button. I have found no solution for that yet. I worked around it by entering the vdr mrl on the xine command line. With that workaround, vdr works fine here with the new channels.
