Re: [vdr] 20 Years of VDR / Announcing "GeoTagger"
Hey Klaus, I have to say many thanks to you and the contributors for this really great software! I'm using VDR since so long (more than 18 years) and all over the house. I hope that you will have still time to work on this and keep it running because I don't want to think of any other solution at all :) It just works so perfect for me. Thanks again and keep going! :) Best wishes and stay healthy! Patrick -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: vdr Im Auftrag von Klaus Schmidinger Gesendet: Mittwoch, 19. Februar 2020 16:37 An: VDR mailing list Betreff: [vdr] 20 Years of VDR / Announcing "GeoTagger" Twenty years ago today, I released the first version of the VDR source. A pretty long time, in which much has happened. Back then a VDR was something special, while today it's just an ordinary device. But still it feels good to be able to tweak things yourself. Lately it's been rather quiet from my side, regarding the VDR development. For one this was because it just works fine in every day life. But I was also busy working on a totally different project. I wanted to add/adjust the GPS coordinates in the many photos that piled up over the years (partly scanned from negatives). Unfortunately there was no application available under Linux that really fit my needs (maybe I just missed that one great program ;-). So I decided to do some development of my own, and today, for the 20th "birthday" of VDR, I'd like to present the result: http://www.tvdr.de/geotagger This is the very first version to go "out in the wild", so chances are there will still be some quirks. So far I have tested it on Linux (openSUSE Leap 15.0) and Mac OS 10.13. I can't test on Windows, because I don't have such a system. Maybe it can be of some use to some of you out there, too. Please send problem reports directly to me, so we don't clog this mailing list.

[vdr] Create repeated remote key-press events until the remote key is released
Hi, I'm using the Sony PS3 Bluetooth remote for controlling VDR. Everything works except for the repeating of key presses while holding down the key on the remote. I'm using the --lirc option for VDR to get the events from eventlircd. I managed to generate an event for the key-down. e.g.: KEY_ENTER and also for the key-up event: KEY_ENTER_rel Here only a suffix is appended to the key name (_rel). Is there a way to generate repeated key presses until the key-up appears? That would be great. If there is no way available yet, I could try to implement such a functionality in the lirc.c of the VDR core. Thanks a lot Patrick ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org https://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
Re: [vdr] Use FF Card only as output device
Hi Christian, In Germany, you can get it from Segor: http://www.segor.de/suche.shtml?foto=0Q=LNBP16M=1 So it might be a good idea to ask/search on vdr-portal or offer the spare ones there. Ah ok :-) so I'll see what i can do :-) If VDR is tuned to a transponder with vertical polarization, you should see 13V supply on the connector. With horizontal polarization, it should be 18V. Ok my Voltage was 0V when it should be 13V and a sawtooth like voltage aroud 14V-19V Thanks Patrick ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
Re: [vdr] Use FF Card only as output device
Hi Klaus, my DVB-S FF card broke down those days. I think it's the tuner of the card, So is it possible to use the Tuner of the buget card and use the broken FF card only as display device and tell the system not to use the broken tuner? You could insert the lines [...] at the beginning of cDvbDevice::ProvidesSource(). Cool. Works great (except for some distortions for the first two seconds when switching the channels, but this is ok for me :-) [I still use VDR 1.5.18] Thanks a lot Patrick ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
[vdr] Use FF Card only as output device
Hi, my DVB-S FF card broke down those days. I think it's the tuner of the card, because it can't lock to a frequency: - Output of femon - using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' FE: Philips TDA8083 DVB-S (SAT) status 01 | signal 6363 | snr 1919 | ber 080484c0 | unc bfc2d9f8 | - End of output - Additional I've a DVB-S budget card in the system. So is it possible to use the Tuner of the buget card and use the broken FF card only as display device and tell the system not to use the broken tuner? Thanks and greets Patrick ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
Re: [vdr] Which DVB-S Card to buy in Germany
Hi Matthias :-) Maybe it's better to install a cooling on them? That could be one solution. The 1.3 cards are known to have heat problems. Would it be an option to buy a budget card? If I understood it correctly the budget card has no TV output but that isn't necessary if I have one FF card or? Thats an option. You only need one FF card to do the video-output and so on. I've also One FF and one budget card and that works really fine. Or are there any other drawbacks? I don't know any drawbacks, but maybe others know some?

[vdr] Problem with locales and gettext
Hi,
I've a problem with the locales.
Everytime I start my server with VDR, the locales are not recognized.
I've done a bit of debugging output to see where the problem is located.
The entries (*.mo) in the locales directory are found.
The environment is set correctly,
but the LanguageName is not translated with the gettext function.
When I restart the vdr-process, the locales are found.
Where is the problem?
i18n.c =
textdomain(vdr);
bindtextdomain(vdr, I18nLocaleDir);
cFileNameList Locales(I18nLocaleDir, true);
if (Locales.Size() 0) {
char *OldLocale = strdup(setlocale(LC_MESSAGES, NULL));
for (int i = 0; i Locales.Size(); i++) {
cString FileName = cString::sprintf(%s/%s/LC_MESSAGES/vdr.mo,
I18nLocaleDir, Locales[i]);
if (access(FileName, F_OK) == 0) { // found a locale with VDR texts
dsyslog(%s/%s/LC_MESSAGES/vdr.mo, I18nLocaleDir, Locales[i]);
if (NumLocales I18N_MAX_LANGUAGES - 1) {
SetEnvLanguage(Locales[i]);
dsyslog(%s/%s, Locales[i], getenv(LANGUAGE));
const char *TranslatedLanguageName = gettext(LanguageName);
dsyslog(%s/%s,LanguageName,TranslatedLanguageName);
if (TranslatedLanguageName != LanguageName) {
NumLocales++;
if (strstr(OldLocale, Locales[i]) == OldLocale)
CurrentLanguage = LanguageLocales.Size();
LanguageLocales.Append(strdup(Locales[i]));
LanguageNames.Append(strdup(TranslatedLanguageName));
const char *Code = gettext(LanguageCode);
for (const char **lc = LanguageCodeList; *lc; lc++) {
if (ContainsCode(*lc, Code)) {
Code = *lc;
break;
}
}
LanguageCodes.Append(strdup(Code));
}
}
else {
esyslog(ERROR: too many locales - increase
I18N_MAX_LANGUAGES!);
break;
}
}
}
SetEnvLanguage(LanguageLocales[CurrentLanguage]);
free(OldLocale);
dsyslog(found %d locales in %s, NumLocales - 1, I18nLocaleDir);
}
==
== no locales are found ===
