Originally there was only the video directory, but at some point people demanded that VDR be able to spread its files all over the system, and so a cachedir was introduced, which is where the EPG file is now put (if a cachedir is specified).

Re: [vdr] [ANNOUNCE] skin nOpacity 0.1.0
Hi, One additional technical remark: the skin uses intensively the eMenuCategory enumeration introduced in VDR 1.7.34 to determinate which menu has to be displayed and if this menu should be displayed narrowly or in default style. So plugins like epgsearch or extrecmenu which replace VDR menus also have to set correct MenuCategories to be displayed correctly by the skin. In the newest versions of these plugins this is already implemented, so you should use always the latest git version of these plugins. One remaining issue with older plugins which are not already adapted to this new behaviour is the following: in plugins with dedicated setup menus which inherit from cMenuSetupPage the menu category mcSetup is set by the constructor of VDRs cMenuSetupPage, but this category should only be used by the main setup menu from VDR (which is diplayed narrow by default in the skin). To solve this, in the constructors of these plugin menus a different menu category (for instance mcSetupPlugins) has to be set via a call to SetMenuCategory: SetMenuCategory(mcSetupPlugins); Cheers Louis ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
[vdr] RFC: Set environment variables after switching user (Patch included)
Hello, depending on the init system and the way, how it is configured, scripts, executed by VDR, either have variables like HOME unset or still set to /root. This is useless for scripts or other external software, called by VDR. My small patch sets the common environment variables to the correct values for the VDR runtime user. This fixes many problems with all kinds of external software, called by VDR (ProjectX or even Firefox via externalplayer to browse the web on your TV). Would be great if this small change could still make it into 2.0.

Re: [vdr] Audio only output device?
I'll subscribe to what's he having.. :) But anyway, to the original question! Streamdev + mpg123 seems to do the trick quite easily, I think this is solved already. mpg123 -oalsa -aiec958:CARD=Generic,DEV=0 http://192.168.0.20:3000/ES/S1.0W-70-72-4901+1 Works very nicely. I was worried that streamdev might introduce too much delay to the audio, but this is not the case. It's almost perfect lip sync, when watching same channel with softhhddevice and mpg123 playing the audio.. -- teemu 2013/3/13 Gerald Dachs v...@dachsweb.de Am 13.03.2013 15:09, schrieb Füley István: Subcribe.

Why not just move vdr to the end of your init instead of having it fool around with setting things like $HOME, $SHELL, etc? ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
