So far only some error messages in the log-file, whenever vdr tries to
write something. Quite reasonable for me.

Hi,

Some keys do not work with the mplayer plugin:
kAudio, kSubtitles, kInfo and perhaps more.

How could I use these keys please in the cMPlayerControl::ProcessKey()
function?


These keys are handled in VDR's main loop and are not conveyed to
any plugin.

If you want to use the track controls, you can make your player
call cDevice::PrimaryDevice()-ClrAvailableTracks() and
cDevice::PrimaryDevice()-SetAvailableTrack() accordingly.


Not so easy... If player feeds mpeg-ts stream to the device, track maps
are rewritten by cPatPmtParser. Also selected track is reset.

This is problematic with BluRay player: languages are not given in PMT
but metadata. There can be extra tracks in PMT when the same mpeg-ts
clip is used in multiple titles. One title can use original audio tracks
while another uses commentary tracks etc.
Also user-selected language (from BluRay menus) is overridden by VDR
when first PMT is parsed.


Well, first of all, VDR is not a BlueRay player ;-)
It is meant for recording and replaying DVB broadcasts.

However, you can, of course, modify the PMT packets in a way that works
for your application. VDR provides both cPatPmtParser and cPatPmtGenerator
classes that might help with this.

Re: [vdr] Call for translations for VDR version 2.0.0: one more string needed

Re: [vdr] read-only video directory

2013-03-06 Thread Stephan Loescher

Hi!

Am 03/05/13 10:35, schrieb Peter Münster:


How is it possible, to mount the video directory in read-only mode?

I want to use a slave vdr like this:

vdr -Pstreamdev-client -Pxineliboutput -v/net/media/data/video

But it does not work, because /net/media/data is mounted read-only.


The workaround I use is to mount the server in a subdirectory e.g. mount 
the server-directory to /net/media/data/video/servervideo and start the 
client-vdr like this:

vdr -Pstreamdev-client -Pxineliboutput -v/net/media/data/video

 The slave vdr should not write anything, just read the recordings.

You can always mount an unionfs or aufs on top of the read only mount,
and redirect all write access to a local disk or ram disk. That way VDR
will be able to write its status files without changing the source file
system.


Cheers,

Udo

Hi Stephan and Udo,

Unfortunately I don't understand. Could you please show examples?

I have for example this directory:
/net/media/data/video/Pippi-geht-von-Bord/2010-07-31.06.55.50.99.rec
The slave (nfs-client) should read it, but it should not write anything
to this directory (or its parents). Is this possible with your
solutions?

TIA,
