information see the Wiki at vdr-developer.org:

[vdr] Where is epg.data supposed to be created by default?

2013-03-13 Thread Magnus Sirwiö

# vdr --version
Mar 13 09:52:26.599 [general.debug] using new 1.7.11+ capture code
vdr (1.7.40/1.7.40) - The Video Disk Recorder

# vdr --help
...
  -E FILE,  --epgfile=FILE write the EPG data into the given FILE (default is
                           'epg.data' in the video directory)
                           '-E-' disables this
                           if FILE is a directory, the default EPG file will be
                           created in that directory
...

Starting vdr with
# vdr -u vdr --cachedir=/var/cache/vdr --video=/var/vdr/video

Does create an epg.data file in the cachedir and not in the video dir as 
suggested by the help text.

Also what is the meaning of setting --epgfile=-E-
Does it disable creation of the epg data file completely? If not - what does 
the description '-E-' disable this refer to?

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).


Also what is the meaning of setting --epgfile=-E-


It'e either -E- or --epgfile=-


Does it disable creation of the epg data file completely?


Yes.

 The example was taken from vdr-1.7.27 from the yavdr distribution 0.5
 
 This is also true for lstr, lste etc.

This marks the last entry, or in other words - is the continuation

Hi!

Is there any simple audio output device?

I have two sound cards in my system. I would like to use one to play
audio of one tv channel, while the other is used normally with softhddevice.

I can probably hack it with streamdev and some mp3 player, but perhaps
some easier solution is available?

Why I need this? Formula1 starts next weekend. I can get HD picture from
one channel and Finnish audio on other..

Re: [vdr] [ANNOUNCE] skin nOpacity 0.1.0

2013-03-13 Thread Stefan Braun
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);

[vdr] RFC: Set environment variables after switching user (Patch included)

2013-03-13 Thread Manuel Reimer

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.

Yours

Re: [vdr] Audio only output device?

2013-03-13 Thread Teemu Suikki
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..

Why not just move vdr to the end of your init instead of having it
fool around with setting things like $HOME, $SHELL, etc?
