Unfortunately it is not working.. The Working Fix is this:

+ return (stc == 0) ? -1LL : (stc 0x);
Replaying returns always true, Transferring returns true only for live. eHD
seems to need small delay also for live.
With this patch eHD looks usable device. I have to do long time testing for
stability, but so far it is more stable than xine/vdpau based solutions. I'm
using reelbox testing tree version 15208 for reelbox-3 and eHD device
driver.
Is it still required to modify also the dvbsubtitle.c?
btw; Your previous patch reelbox-svn15208-vdr.bin for reelbox svn 15208
didn't apply clean to VideoPlayerHd.c. The line 313 in svn 15208
(VideoPlayerHd.c) start with:
const UInt repeat = 6;
and your patch expect it to start with
const UInt repeat = 4;
It's easy to fix, but I thought I let you know...

I did some testing and debugging. First note is that VDR do not do sanity
check for STC on delay loop. Now there is on dvbsubtitle.c
if (STC= 0) {
It should be
if (LimitTo32Bit(STC)= 0) {
After this delay loop start to work with reelbox-3 plugin. With out that STC
int64_t value includes garbage and get most of time negative value. Because
same filtering is in use other places for this value, it should be also on
if-statement..
This do not fix delay issue on eHD completely, but now subtitles are in sync
with AV.
Next step is to add delay for subtitles. This is dirty trick, it is only
for eHD users. Simply add some value to Delta (add second line):
Code:
Delta = LimitTo32Bit(sb-Pts()) - LimitTo32Bit(STC);
Delta += 50;
With that 5 you will get 5.56s delay. With that eHD now works correctly
with recording play. Live shows subtitles will be too late with this, but it
is minor issue. I mostly watch recordings :)
The root cause is still there, somehow eHD delivers around 50 too low
STC for recording play. For live shows STC value is correct..
Thank you! I've tried these kind of hacks myself, but because of
ultimate coding skills, couldn't produce anything useful...
Too bad, that this is not waf solution yet...
I guess, that I'll have to increase the level of the dirty tricks and
compile couple of vdr instances (one with the delay and one without) and
create a command for switching between the instances :D

p.s. My 3rd eHD card could be available for testing purposes in Helsinki

Perhaps the easiest fix would be getting the delay option back for the dvb subtitles.

The valid range is -20...100. This option is only available if Display subtitles is set to 'yes'. I'll try to have some time to test this one.
