Re: [vdr] Question about VDR changes for a high-color osd.

Does anyone happen to know any bad implications of changing tIndex from uint8_t to a uint16_t for allowing access to more of a color palette? I believe the right way to go is to implement a full 24 (32 with alpha channel) bit OSD, as was already done for the Reelbox. This will soon be added to the core VDR code. i don't want to complain, i like vdr very much (use ist now for years), but i see only a lot of new gimmicks in vdr in the last months/years. I still waiting for real client/server/multi-user functionality. I know that there are plugins (xineliboutput, streamdev and so on) but it is still not 100%. Is there anything in the queue about this topics? Thanks a lot Olli ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

Hi, Udo Richter wrote: Pasi Juppo wrote: Would this approach allow easier implementation of a real client-server solution for VDR or would VDR still need severe changes in order to allow this? Has not much to do with this. The limitation for a client-server solution is that VDR has exact ONE display front end, ONE open menu at a time, ONE recording playback, ONE user that edits a timer, ONE display size, ONE number of lines that fits on the screen, and so on. Its just a lot easier to do it with multiple VDR instances that share the few unique resources like DVB hardware, timers and recordings. And all that is already possible with a streamdev like setup. I wonder how? I try to do this now for some years, but I can not find a really good solution. Can you tell me some details?

[vdr] segmentation fault in vdr-sxfe
hi, i use vdr-sxfe as a client for vdr with the xineliboutput-plugin. since i upgraded my debian system (testing), i always get a segmentation-fault when pressing a key. i start like this: vdr-sxfe --video sdl xvdr:tcp://video4:37890 i can see the actual tv-program but when i press any key to switch to a other program or show the menu i get a segmentation fault. if i telnet to the server to the control-port and use the command hitk m or hitk up/down i can switch program an see the menu without problem. does anyone have a idea? thanks olli ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

[vdr] astra und hotbird ueber diseqc schalter?
Hi, ich habe mir heute einen zweiten LNB auf die Schuessel gebaut um Hotbird empfangen zu koennen. Jetzt weiss ich nur noch nicht wie ich beide LNB am geschicktesten mit meinem VDR verbinde (Beide LNB jeweils Quad). Ich habe 2 DVB Karten. Die professionelle Variante waere wohl einen Multiswitch einzubauen. Dagegen spricht der Preis und dass er extra Strom benoetigt. Zum Hintergrund: Hotbird ist nur fuer meine Frau, da es hier 2 Sender in ihrer Muttersprache gibt. Hauptsaechlich wird also Astra benutzt, nur gelegentlich Hotbird. Deswegen dachte ich mir ob es nicht auch mit einem einfachen Diseqc Schalter ginge, z.B. den folgenden von Reichelt: Axing DiSEQC-V2.0-Umschalter D.h. ich wollte an die erste DVB Karte den LNB von Astra anschliessen und an die zweite DVB Karte den Diseqc-Umschalter mit jeweils Astra und Hotbird. So koennte man dann falls noetig gleichzeitig 2 verschiedene Sender von Astra aufnehmen, oder astra und hotbird gleichzeitig. Zweimal von Hotbird ginge dann zwar nicht, ist aber nicht wichtig. Ist sowas moeglich? Bzw. kann man sowas beim VDR konfigurieren? Momentan habe ich an der ersten DVB Karte Astra und an der zweiten Hotbird. Ich musste dazu in der Channels.conf die Sender entsprechend auf die Karten binden ueber das CA-Feld. Wie wuerde das ueber den Schalter gemacht, da ja z.b. RTL (Astra) sowohl direkt ueber DVB-Karte 1 als auch ueber den Schalter ueber Karte 2 erreichbar sein sollte. Hat jemand so eine Konfiguration laufen?
