I like the idea.
Has anybody gotten VDR to run on the PS3 in the meantime?

Apparently, there is a commercial vdr system for the PS3
available now.

http://playtvps3.com

It's a bit hard to find concrete technical information
on the above web site, but it seems that this a DVB-T box
and it costs 100 Euros.

Not really exciting.

I am looking for a silent, SAT-HDTV capable, inexpensive
system.

Would the PS3 be a good base for that?

Any other suggestions?

Re: [vdr] Still can't do multiproto - can now :)

2008-09-20 Thread Josce

 Edit Make.config and change/edit the DVBDIR variable. I guess you don't
 have it pointed to you multiprot location.

Of course I haven't :)
In my twisted and tired brain I assumed that make install would install
the modules and the header files that go with them.

Thanks again for your help!

Now running:
- multiproto
- vdr 1.7.0
- vdr-1.7.0-h264-syncearly-framespersec-audioindexer-fielddetection-speedup.diff

It works almost well. The sound is good but the video has some mosaic,
both on live and verified good recordings?
The cpu usage is  10%

Did you try updating/compiling the hg/svn of xine-lib as well as ffmpeg ? Also, 
I don't know which software output device you use, but you can setup 
postprocessing with for instance xineliboutput or vdr-xine.

There is a reset circuit on the that controls the complicated power
sequencing. It is possible that your BIOS is too fast and configures the PCI
space during this powerup sequence. At that time, the HDE is not properly
accessible.

It is possible to shorten this sequence a bit, but for that you need to
exchange a SMD capacitor on the HDE board.

 To me it seems that the eHD can't get the stream quickly enough.

What is the CPU load during that time? The host CPU transfers the data into
the shared memory on the card, so anything below 80-90% load indicates
another problem.

 When I run lspci -b I get 3 devices sharing with IRQ 5:

The card does not use the IRQ, so that is not relevant.

Have a look at the hdtsplay-demo in the hdshm3-folder. It is a simple demo
that plays back TS files over the DeCypher. If that works, your basic driver
setup (+ the HW) is OK, and something in the vdr (or the patches) itself
is wrong.

Playing back a ts file with hdtsplay is actually even worse.
I am using a patched hdshm.c file that I downloaded.
The one in the reelbox SVN testing used 'pci_get_device_reverse',
which I think has been removed from the newer kernels.

I will SVN a completely fresh reelbox tommorrow and see if
maybe I have made some mistakes when installing the drivers.
