Re: [vdr] Wanted VDR xineliboutput client

2011-10-22 Thread M. Fiegert


 Any suggestions for small, powerful, quiet, FullHD VDR client?
 So, I search machine what would act as VDR-client, using xineliboutput
 with FullHD resolution and machine would have DVI or HDMI connection
 optical audio.


I bought 2 years ago Zotac IONITX-A-E motherboard which came with atom
CPU and nvidia gpu, at that time it cost about 200 euro.
...
I made the small case myself and have I have 12 fan running in it in
the slowest speed and the case/cpu/gpu temperatures remains under 50 c.



I also have such a zotac board. Its running like a charm as a vdr client 
since almost two years COMPLETELEY NOISELESS (no fan, SSD)!
You have Full HD over HDMI (and there is optical output, but I never 
tried to use).

Definatly my recommendation if noise is a concern.

Sounds good to me. My current vdr box needs upgrading at some point and it has 
started doing hard lockups in the psat few weeks (I suspect the PSU is on the 
way out. Rather than trying to track that down, maybe it's a hint that I need 
to upgrade to a new system!

Is this running in a client-server setup? I.e. DVB devices in another box and 
then using the libxineoutput plugin? Does this setup give you full OSD access 
to timer programming, etc., from the client? (I think that is all meant to be 
straightforward but does it work in practice?!)

Cheers,

Re: [vdr] old recordings are not deleted

I see. I have 2 partitions, a / partition and a /storage partition. I would
like to record to /storage/video/video.00. I have edited /etc/default/vdr
so it reads:
OPTIONS=-v /storage/video/video.00 -w 60

Still I get the error:

Oct 22 07:51:24 localhost vdr: [1579] low disk space while recording, trying
to remove a deleted recording...
Oct 22 07:51:24 localhost vdr: [1579] ...no deleted recording found, trying
to delete an old recording...
Oct 22 07:51:24 localhost vdr: [1579] ...no old recording found, giving up


So you're using just one video directory, and all of that directory is 
on one mounted partition. Thats fine.


Can you give an example for a complete recording path name that should 
be ready for deletion in your opinion? For VDR-1.7.x, please also post 
the info file.




Oh, and please don't copy into a new mail, just hit the reply button, 
and make sure it goes to vdr@linuxtv.org.


Cheers,

Udo

Yes, for me its like this. The server is a core-duo with a cine S2 card 
(V5) and 2TB video harddisk (as well as other server functionality). It 
is a pure server without terminal or TV.



Does this setup give you full OSD access
to timer programming, etc., from the client? (I think that is all meant to be
straightforward but does it work in practice?!)


Yes it does.
It is not that rock solid stable than full-featured one box solution 
that I had before (running without a glitch for months), but very good 
usable. I would estimate that vdr-sxfe crashes about once a week, but 
most of the time is restared in some seconds. In rare cases a kill -9 is 
necessary which i have on one remote button.
This may be much better with recent versions, I am still on ubuntu 10.4 
with yavdr which hasn't been updated for a long time.


I had some reception problems with HD while summer, but since recordings 
are playing fine and it is getting better now, i think that is due to 
reception problems from trees in the line of sight. Though there is some 
mysteries to be looked into there. No problems with SD.



Greetings

[vdr] Wanted VDR xineliboutput client

2011-10-22 Thread JJussi
My choice was Asus AT5IONT-I Deluxe ION Mini ITX + CF to SATA == Totally 
silent, no fans.


Now next big question.  Distribution!
What distribution offers all needed components... Like xinelib2, so 
xineliboutput-sxfe could use VDPAU.
