Re: [vdr] small patch for vdr.c: continue even with read-only video directory
and it's important for me, that vdr cannot write anything to the video directory. Since this is important for you personaly, you want to change VDR for all users, are you serious? From my personal point of view a read only video directory with an video disk recorder doesn't make much sense. But I wouldn't deny the need, because obviously there a single user out there who does need it, strange enough ... But to change it in a global way like this is IMHO not a way to go. The correct solution would be that any user needing it, must decide and configure something. So, a kind of a switch like an OSD option or even a better way, VDR does check existence of a file in this video directory, e.g. .vdrro, something similar to .nodelete ... === Kind regards fnu ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

vdr runs fine with this patch on my system, and it's important for me,
that vdr cannot write anything to the video directory.

If you prefer, I can write a better patch: stop if not readable, warn if
not writable.
I'm afraid we're too close to releasing version 2.0.0 to make such
changes now.
Besides, why don't you just use a writeable video directory and mount
your read-only directory below that? Something like
/video
/video/readonly

Re: [vdr] read-only video directory
Am 08.03.2013 19:35, schrieb Stephan Loescher: When you use the suggested solution with unionfs, then the client uses the servers setup/timers/epg/etc. because it sees them in its /video-directory. Only until the first write, after that the client will continue with its local writable copy. It is generally possible (and in a network shared environment also a good idea) to have config files in a different place, and just recordings within /video. If you definitely want shared (read-only) config files, I'd suggest using symbolic links, like /etc/vdr/channels.conf - /net/media/data/vdr-config/channels.conf. Solves a lot of problems, like clients trying to record the same as the server because of same timers.conf, or not having to configure streamdev-client on the server.

So please test this developer version intensely and report any problems you might encounter as soon as possible. The changes since version 1.7.39: - The Recording info page of the skins that come with VDR now displays the name of the channel (if available) from which this recording was taken. - Updated the Catalan OSD texts (thanks to Luca Olivetti). - Updated the Spanish OSD texts (thanks to Luca Olivetti). - Added a note about the new default sort order of recordings to the release notes of version 1.7.29 and the UPDATE-2.0.0 file (pointed out by Wolfgang Rohdewald). - Fixed a faulty UTF-8 character in cs_CZ.po. - Added the system's character set to the page header in the epg2html script (pointed out by Dimitar Petrovski). - Updated the Slovenian OSD texts (thanks to Matjaz Thaler). - The new option Setup/OSD/Always sort folders first can be used to control whether folders will be always at the top of the Recordings menu, or will be interspersed with plain recordings when sorted alphabetically. - Updated the Swedish OSD texts (thanks to Richard Lithvall). - Updated the Chinese OSD texts (thanks to Nan Feng). - Updated the Slovak OSD texts (thanks to Milan Hrala). - Updated the Macedonian OSD texts (thanks to Dimitar Petrovski). - Updated the Dutch OSD texts (thanks to Cedric Dewijs). - Updated the Czech OSD texts (thanks to Ales Jurik). - Updated the Ukrainian OSD texts (thanks to Yarema Aka Knedlyk). - Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov). - Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto). - Updated the French OSD texts (thanks to Dominique Plu). - Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Matti Lehtimäki). - Updated the Arabic OSD texts (thanks to Osama Alrawab). - Updated the Romanian OSD texts (thanks to Lucian Muresan). - Renamed the plp id to a more general stream id and added support for DVB-S2 Input Stream Identifier (ISI) (based on a patch from Rolf Ahrenberg).

[vdr] Final call for translations for VDR version 2.0.0

Read-only CAN for e.g. happen after an error when the filesystem is mounted with error=read-only (ignoring the runtime-case, when VDR is already running when that happens). And you may not see a warning and only notice that something went wrong after you lost a recording that didn't happen. A not starting VDR is a little more noticable than an apparrently working one that just can't record anything. So if VDR suddenly changes behaviour i can gurantee you that at least 1 person will be bitten by it.

not writable: warning, not readable: exit. Is that a problem for real-life systems? A lot of people, myself included, don't like VDR exiting on its' own unless it's completely unavoidable (such as a crash). I'd much rather miss some recordings but have live tv available for everyone to use than have an exited VDR and hearing complaints about the tv not working until I'm able to find out and fix whatever happened to /video access. VDR should only exit when there's no other option or the user actually wants that behavior. Otherwise, it should be avoided. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
