[vdr] Feature request: ERROR: video data stream broken

2014-03-09 Thread Marco Göbenich

Hi!

Would it be possible to be more precise in this error message, maybe 
which channel, transponder or  adapter is causing this.
There were some transponder changes on Astra, and now I have a lot 
"Error: video data stream broken" messages. I got a lot of parallel 
recording here.


Regards

Marco

The author of the EEPG plugin has always been very helpful. You should
just contact him about adding Freeview HD support. Then you won't have
to monkey around with patches and messing with the VDR core.

The patch also covers Freeview HD (which uses the same encoding as
Freesat, but with standard PIDs instead of Freesat's custom ones), which
EEPG doesn't, unless it's been updated since I last used it.

That's an older version of the patch I use. Someone updated it to embed
the Huffman tables in the source code (now that the tables are
complete/stable there's no advantage to loading them from separate
files). More recently I had to edit it again to deal with an API change
in VDR 2.

I guess you're using satellite because there was never a problem with
the SD channels on DVB-T (Freeview). The eepg plugin supports Freesat
and Sky's EPGs, but it has a memory leak and doesn't support Freeview
HD, so instead I use a patch which various people have tweaked over

Freesat uses a Huffman encoding for EGP data, which has not made its
way into VDR core.

a) Plugin EEPG has these tables (and covers some other EPGs as well)
b) A Freesat patch extends VDR to just the Freesat code tables.

[vdr] EPG for BBC TV channels?

2014-03-09 Thread Manuel Reimer

Hello,

for most of the GB TV channels it is common to only have the current and 
the next event in the EPG list.


I did a few tries to work around this problem using EPG parsed from 
internet services and imported to VDR via xmltv2vdr-Plugin.


As this solution is a bit tricky and not very reliable, my question is, 
whether there is a better solution to get "real" EPG for those channels?


Thank you very much in advance

Greetings,

Manuel
