[vdr] [ANNOUNCE] vdr-osdserver 0.0.2

2007-07-21 Thread Udo Richter
Hi,

I've published version 0.0.2 of the OSDServer plugin.

OSDServer is a plugin that allows external programs to use the OSD and 
the menu system of VDR. Access is done via TCP/IP and a simple script 
language that is primarily designed to be handled by perl programs and 
shell scripts. Until now, interactive VDR extensions were only available 
to C++ coders, but with this plugin, script coders can use the OSD too.

Version 0.0.2 provides a first, solid set of commands for menus and 
configuration dialogs, and should be useful for first applications. 
Feedback on problems and improvement suggestions are welcome.

Download and sample:

Cheers,

Udo

Re: [vdr] CAM-CI and multi-channel viewing + slow startup

 Hi.
 
 I have just got a TechnoTrend 1500-C budget with CI and Irdeto CAM working
 with vdr-1.5.5.
 
 I was hoping to be able to view and record multiple channels in a
 boquet/transponder (as I've previously done with a dvb-t card and freeview).
 All my channels under dvb-c are encrypted:
 
 Sky 1;T:594000:C0M64:C::529:530:0:606:201:182:2:0
 Juice 2;T:594000:C0M64:C::577:578:0:606:204:182:2:0
 
 When I try and record 1 and watch/record the other I get:
 
 
 Jul 21 22:37:46 media1 vdr: [5680] record
 /media/video/vdr/@J2_-_Our_Kind_of_Music_Press_'i'_for_more_information./200

 Is there anything I can do to get this working?
 
 Also - when vdr starts up initially, it takes about 20 seconds before I get
 a picture:

[vdr] PANIC: watchdog timer expired - exiting!

Hello,

sometimes, I can't use my xine anymore to connect to vdr, and my log
shows :

I start my vdr with :

Re: [vdr] VDR BUG: Cannot display named channels on a transponder with other unnamed channels present

2007-07-21 Thread Klaus Schmidinger
On 06/29/07 22:35, Morfsta wrote:
 Hi,
 
 I am running VDR 1.4.6-1 and I think there is a bug in its tuning of
 certain channels. On the Astra 28.2E package at 11604V there are two
 unnamed channels which are Sky Anytime A and Sky Anytime B
 (http://www.lyngsat.com/packages/skyuk.html). Using dvbscan these show
 up as channels [0f36] and [0f37] respectively and have VPIDS 518 and
 519. It is poosible to display these channels, but  it is now not
 possible to receive the other channels on this transponder (VPIDS 512
 to 517).
 
 I had no problems receiving these channels before the appearance of
 these additional channels. I have checked the channel settings for the
 other channels and they are all correct, so I can only guess that
 there is a bug in VDR that prevents these channels from being
 displayed.
 
 The problem exists without any additional plugins in use.

I just tried this and can receive, for instance,

Sky 
Modern;BSkyB:11603:vC23:S28.2E:27500:512+128:640=eng,680=NAR;660=eng:576:960,961:4650:2:2408:0

just fine. Note that the frequency is 11603 here (not sure how that
got in - either I planted a seed channel manually, or it was taken
from an SI table automatically), but it works just as well if I change
it manually to 11604.

Here are all the channels I have on that transponder:

Sky

[vdr] Breaking sound at playback

2007-07-21 Thread JJussi
Hi!

This question is directed more to Finnish DBV/VDR gurus...

I have problem with YLE recordings.  When watching live proadcast, sound is 
just right but when watch same program as recoded, sound is breaking, picture 
is fine, but sound have short gaps.. Like when there is not enougth CPU power 
to decode it.
IF I play that file directly with xine sound is fine.. No problem.

During watching, when sound start breaking, if I jump few second backward 
sound is fine for a while, but then start breaking again.

So this problem is only with YLE recordings, other channels are fine always.

I have tried to change almost everyhting at xineliboutput and replay settings, 
nothing helps.  This is not version related (atleast not vdr version).

Do you use identical configurations for xine-ui and xineliboutput? I 
mean the ones in your ~/.xine directory. What are those like?

Do you use vdr-sxfe, vdr-fbfe or local frontend with xineliboutput? Have 
you tried other frontends like VLC or mplayer?

Have you tried increasing the output of vdr-sxfe (or your frontend of 
choice)?

What versions of xine-lib and xineliboutput are you using?

How do you start the frontend, VDR and other players you have tested? Do 
you for example always use the same audio driver?


Please try to gather all the necessary information... that way it is 
easier for others to help you.
