[vdr] vdr-1.5.18 subtitles issue
Hi, I tried subtitle features and I saw some problems (I am using vdr-1.5.18 with softdevice and streamdev). First auto channel update is need : there no way to save subtitle pid in channel.conf. I haven't info about this on the manual and it takes me some time how to make it works. Next osd behaviour is weird : as soon as subtitle is started, when it will refresh it will mess up with other osd. For example if I start subtitle and then go to the menu, the menu will be clear by subtitle refresh, but I am still in menu mode. Next, why like audio aren't there an entry in main menu for showing current subtitle tracks ? The only way to know that is to use keymacro with Subtiles key, but that could be hard to map it with remote with few keys. Finally I have the impression that the subtitles synchronisation isn't good. Thanks, Matthieu ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

I'm asking so I know which programs author should I point my whine to =) Well it depends of API and what support the hardware. In my opinion doing charset conversion in kernel is not a good thing.

I tested with vdr-1.6.0 + softdevice plugin. I have the same problem. I don't have such problems here on a FF DVB card. Could it be that the softdevice plugin doesn't handle the OSD levels correctly? These were introduced in VDR version 1.5.9. Yes it seems to be a softdevice problem : there a post on the softdevice ML, the developper try something, but it didn't solve the problem.

Not giant system, but some experiences: I have one server running three instances of vdr. Vdr #2 and #3 are connected by streamdev to vdr #1 that owns dvb hardware. Timersync plugin syncronizes timers to vdr #1. Three client PCs run just vdr-sxfe as explained in xinelibout's README file. My experience with a vdr#1 on a box with a dvb-s FF and a dvb-t card. And a vdr#2 connected via streamdev. It works, but it's really an hack/mess and lack lot's of features : - on my configuration the recording only work on vdr#1. on vdr#2 svdrp should be used to control recording and ftp to read them (with a video player) - on my configuration some dvb-s and dvb-t channels are the same. If vdr#1 is watching a channel on dvb-s (that is also on dvb-t), but vdr#2 want to use another transponder on dvb-s, the switch should be done by hand. - I have got issue for some channels that are encrypted at some hours and free at other hours - IRRC nothing that stop the master (vdr#1) to powerdown (even if vdr#2 is in use). Nothing that allow vdr#2 to powerdown vdr#1 if nobody watch TV. - no channel sync I wanted to give a try to mythtv (or freevo) but neither of them doesn't seem to support output on FF card.

So now, i can' t have anymore sound on theses channels with the eHD Reel card. I don't know if the problem comes from the hardware part of the eHD or the reelbox plugin or VDR. I use the VDR 1.7.6 and a quite recent build of the reelbox plugin Can someone help me with that? Thanks in advance Since DD+ is supposed to be compatible with DD, it is maybe just a different audio format type in the PMT. No sure, but for software decoding with ffmpeg you need a patch to decode DD+ with Spectral extension.

[vdr] [path] vdr-1.6 better spu on ff card
Hi, this patch try to handle case where the osd is limited (for example on ff card). For that it try to split area, count the really needed bpp (all transparent index can be merged together and will with my previous patch in osd.c). Also it fix a bug in the current version : removing all the transparent baground area is ok only if it is recomputed at each draw. Otherwise a highlight request can happen outside the computed area. With this patch I can navigate in dvd menu that produce oeOutOfMemory before. Matthieu ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
