[vdr] why I can't watch the H.264 channel with vdr-1.7.0+H.264?
I have compiled the vdr-1.7.0+H.264+xine-lib-1.2+xineliboutput-1.0.1. But when I run it and select the H.264 channel. There is no image on the screen, But I can hear the audio. I can watch the mpeg-2 channes. MY VDR: debian lenny+multiproto+vdr-1.7.0+H.264+xine-lib-1.2+xineliboutput-1.0.1 MY vdr is running on xorg without KDE. why I can't watch the H.264 channel?

[vdr] extending VDR to support external Media software
Hi,I have a question regarding the best way to extend VDR functionality to support a certain feature. I've got a linux server running a recording software called SageTV. The server is connected to two set top boxes that feature hardware MPEG4 decoding. Although most of the functionality of SageTV is quite nice, it can't compare to VDR features when it comes to dealing with DVB-S recording. Having used VDR in my previous setup, I would like to integrate SageTV with VDR, so I get the best of both worlds, i.e. hardware decoding/user interface of sagetv, stability/DVB features of VDR. SageTV provides a simple API for using external recorders, which requires the external recorder to listen on a TCP port and record a PS stream to a file given by sagetv. My question is: What is the most straightforward way to implement this in VDR ? Is it better to adapt an existing plugin like streamdev, or is it simple enough to write a plugin from scratch for this purpose? Is there some documentation available on how to use the VDR api ? I would greatly appreciate any hints in this matter. Thank you, Markus ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

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?

Re: [vdr] 576i output on DVI->HDMI?
It's my understanding that it is the pixel rate that is doubled to meet the minimum bandwidth requirement of 25Mpixels/sec for hdmi. That is pixels are repeated hence doubling the apparent horizontal resolution. This is always the case for the 480i and 576i modes. The modeline you need should be based on standard EIA/CEA-861B timings like this: # 1440x576i @ 50Hz (EIA/CEA-861B) ModeLine "1440x576" 27.000 1440 1464 1590 1728 576 581 587 625 -hsync -vsync Interlace Unfortunately I think there is a special flag that must be set to indicate pixel-repetition is being used and I am not sure how you would get a graphics card to do this. I have not tried using the above modeline so I cannot comment on whether it works. Worth a try though. There is a good list of EIA/CEA-861B modes here: http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=947830&page=3 I do know the 720p modeline works on my tv. GTF timings generally don't work for hdmi. The other issue with interlaced modes is how are the odd/even fields synchronised? Is this the same problem with interlaced output on a good old vga output? I have often wondered how vdr-xine or xineliboutput would implement dynamic resolution switching. It would be easy to upscale everything to a higher resolution like 1080p. But what if your tv can handle only 1080i at best. It would be better to switch resolution when broadcasts change between 1080i and 720p on a program-to-program basis.
