Re: [vdr] Device power saving feature - power measurements

[glenvt18]

Hi Richard,

As there are no debug messages in your log I tried to reconstruct some
of them (power-related) - see my comments. Note that an extra second is
added to all timeouts due to the 'greater than' comparison. It was done
on purpose to add some save margin. Power-saving looks to work OK. But.
I don't see any 'timer ... start/stop' or 'record ...' messages in your
log. So, I have some questions:
1) Did you fail to record 'The Big C & Me' at 01:05 and 'Greenberg' at
01:35?
2) Did you cancel 'Greenberg'?
3) Was your streaming interrupted?
4) What is your vnsi streaming priority?
5) What is your recording priority?
6) Are the channels you recorded and the channels you streamed on the same
transponder? I'm asking this because I see device 1 being idle all that
time.
7) What happens with your VDR when a vnsi streaming is interrupted by a
higher priority recording on the same device but on another transponder?
8) What timers (their dates) did you have from Jun 24 00:00 to Jun 24
04:00? 
9) What is your Vps Margin setting?

Re: [vdr] vdr --genindex fails on radio recording

[Richard F]

Thanks both - I'll give it a try - let you know how it goes against 2.2.0
