However, beside the actual problem, there also seems to be a serious problem with compiler flags, or otherwise this should have worked. More precisely, VDR itself was compiled with USE_LIVEBUFFER, while at least some plugins were compiled without USE_LIVEBUFFER. This should be fixed too, as there may be more serious issues when headers get interpreted differently by VDR and plugins.

Re: [vdr] [PATCH v2] multi-frontend-support for vdr 1.7.21
Hi Lars, I have got the sc plugin working with your hybrid patch v2 and introduced the premium card and all is working well. Are you planning any more revisions to the patch? Or at least a 1.7.22 version? Thanks, Mark. -Original Message- From: Hawes, Mark Sent: Thursday, 1 December 2011 10:08 PM To: 'VDR Mailing List' Subject: RE: [vdr] [PATCH v2] multi-frontend-support for vdr 1.7.21 Hi Lars, First reports on v2 of your multi-frontend patch with HVR 4000 card: - can switch between both frontends successfully and very stable with repetitive tests - timer behaviour as expected - switching response seems quicker than before - Streamdev and xineliboutput plugins compile OK. Xlo tested OK, will look at Sd later - Have modified Rotor plugin to fit (maintaining personal version) and all seems OK - Working through sc plugin changes to fit. If I can get the sc plugin working I'll move across a sd premium card into the mix and see how it behaves, watch this space ... While this is all good obviously things will no doubt change when Klaus releases 2.x with the new multi-frontend adapter handling. However, reading between the lines this may not be in the immediate future so an interim workaround for these cards is appreciated by me and I expect others ... Thanks and keep up the good work.

Hanisch Sent: Thursday, 1 December 2011 10:50 AM To: VDR Mailing List Subject: [vdr] [PATCH v2] multi-frontend-support for vdr 1.7.21 Hi, Here's version 2 of my multi-frontend-patch. It's still dirty, since it changes the constructor of cDvbDevice which will break compilation of some plugins. But I think it might be necessary to look at the relevant plugins since they might need to react on frontend changes. I haven't tested any of those plugins but will have a look at some that I'm using. Maybe there have to be some virtual functions like BeforeFrontendSwitch and AfterFrontendSwitch so the plugins are even able to know about it. Assumption for this patch: All frontends within one adapter have to be used mutually exclusive. All cards I know behave in this way. If there are cards with multiple frontends which can be used simultaneously I'd like to hear about it. Whenever the dvb-api-changes are upstream (the ENUM_DELSYS thingy) I think my patch can easily be converted to use that. I'm still working on this patch, it's not finished yet... :-) Have fun, Lars. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
