[vdr] (Solved)vdr-iptv-plugin DVB subtitles problems
This was my problem: http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/vdr/2010-September/023546.html Long story short, I could not display DVB subtitles. The solution was: Apply a patch from IPTV plugin for VDR (iptv-0.4.2/patches/vdr-1.7.15-disable_ca_updates.patch) to VDR. I'm using yaVDR 0.2 (It's Ubuntu 10.04 minimal + VDR PPA) First I created a working directory called src mkdir src cd src/ Then i got the source code for VDR and IPTV plugin: apt-get source vdr apt-get source vdr-iptv-plugin Then I took care for all of the dependencies: sudo apt-get install build-essential vdr-dev sudo apt-get build-dep vdr Before I aplied the patch vdr-1.7.15-disable_ca_updates.patch I had to manualy apply a patch for ttxtsubs, that came with VDR source code. Because vdr-1.7.15/debian/patches/opt-27_ttxtsubs.dpatch tries to mess with the same code block in pat.c as the patch from IPTV, building will fail, if you apply the IPTV patch first. So I opened vdr-1.7.15/debian/patches/00list with a text editor and commented the line with opt-27_ttxtsubs.dpatch vi vdr-1.7.15/debian/patches/00list Look for a line: # Patch needed for the ttxtsubs plugin. opt-27_ttxtsubs and change it to: # Patch needed for the ttxtsubs plugin. #opt-27_ttxtsubs I then had to ran: python vdr-1.7.15/debian/patchcheck.py -u Now that I made sure that /opt-27_ttxtsubs.dpatch won't run at build time, I had to apply it manualy. First you have to be in the ~/src/vdr-1.7.15/ directory. I then applied the ttxtsubs patch: patch -p1 debian/patches/opt-27_ttxtsubs.dpatch Because opt-27_ttxtsubs patch changed the pat.c file, you have to insert one line from vdr-1.7.15-disable_ca_updates.patch in to pat.c with a text editor. Find the lines in pat.c: Channel-SetTeletextSubtitlePages(TeletextSubtitlePages, NumTPages); Channel-SetCaIds(CaDescriptors-CaIds()); Then insert one line from the vdr-1.7.15-disable_ca_updates.patch : Channel-SetTeletextSubtitlePages(TeletextSubtitlePages, NumTPages); if (!cSource::IsType(Channel-Source(), 'I')) Channel-SetCaIds(CaDescriptors-CaIds()); Then I ran: dpkg-buildpackage After some time on my Atom CPU, i got a nice vdr_1.7.15-2yavdr1_i386.deb package which I then installed with: sudo dpkg -i vdr_1.7.15-2yavdr1_i386.deb Now my DVB subtitles are showing in their glorious color :) Because I'm fairly lazy, I'm sending this to the mailing list, where I will be able to find it later. This is the firts time I ever used a mailing list, so I'm probably breaking some etiquete, but maybee someone else could find my solution usefull. And by my solution I ofcourse mean Rolf Ahrebenger's solution. Thank you again for all your help! tvich ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
[vdr] vdr-iptv-plugin DVB subtitles problems
Hi I cant' display DVB subtitles on VDR. I'm using: VDR 1.7.15 xine 0.9.3 source: iptv-plugin 0.4.2 (http://www.saunalahti.fi/rahrenbe/vdr/iptv/) (yaVDR 0.2) on Asrock ION 330 HT DVB Subutitles are enabled under System/Setup/DVB and Language chosen is Slovenski (Slovenian-SLV). The iptv plugin detects the subtitles pid in question (System/Plugins/iptv/Info but no matter what I do, the channel in question returns No subtitles available The plugin passes mpeg2/4 stream directly to VDR and it does it superbly (HDTV great, EPG great, Channel switching fast, Stable, Teletext...) My IPTV (T-2, Slovenia) provider uses udp multicast and I can watch all the programs in VLC, with subtitles, ttx... This is the m3u playlist for VLC: http://www.rula.net/t2/t2tv.m3u This is the line in VLC playlist for HBO: #EXTINF:0,8 - HBO udp://@239.1.1.151:5000 This is Codec Information from VLC: Stream 0 Type: Video Codec: MPEG-1/2 Video (mpgv) Resolution: 640x576 Frame rate: 50 --- Stream 1 Type: Audio Original ID: 802 Codec: MPEG Audio layer 1/2/3 (mpga) Language: slovenščina Channels: Stereo Sample rate: 48000 Hz Bitrate: 192 kb/s --- Stream 2 Type: Audio Original ID: 1204 Codec: A52 Audio (aka AC3) (a52 ) --- Stream 3 Type: Subtitle Original ID: 7302 Codec: DVB Subtitles (dvbs) Language: slovenščina Description: DVB subtitles Those are lines from channels.conf, I started experimenting with HBO and tried a lot of variations(realy alot :). I still think I'm messing something up wit the syntax. HBO;IPTV:110:S=0|P=0|F=UDP|U=239.1.1.151|A=5000:I:0:810=2:8...@4:7302:0:222:0:0:0 HBO2;IPTV:120:S=1|P=1|F=UDP|U=239.1.1.151|A=5000:I:0:810=2:8...@4:0;102=Slo:0:222:0:0:0 HBO3;IPTV:130:S=1|P=0|F=UDP|U=239.1.1.151|A=5000:I:0:810=2:8...@4:7302:0:222:0:0:0 HBO4;IPTV:140:S=0|P=1|F=UDP|U=239.1.1.151|A=5000:I:0:810=2:8...@4:7302:0:222:0:0:0 HBO5;IPTV:150:S=0|P=0|F=UDP|U=239.1.1.151|A=5000:I:0:810=2:8...@4:0:0:222:0:0:0 HBO6;IPTV:160:S=0|P=0|F=UDP|U=239.1.1.151|A=5000:I:0:810:802:0:0:1:0:0:0 HBO7;IPTV:170:S=1|P=1|F=UDP|U=239.1.1.151|A=5000:I:0:810:802:0:0:1:0:0:0 If I record the video with VDR and run dvbsnoop |grep 7302 (subtitles id) I get no results (dvbsnoop can't analyze live iptv streams). I also dumped the stream with mplayer and tried playing back the video, but there were no subtitles (record subtitles is checked in options). But because this is the first time I ran dvbsnoop and even after reading dvbsnoops man pages, I'm not sure if I did everything right. I'm also not very good with mplayer, so i ran with -alang, maybe I'm doing something wrong? Another problem is, that if I mess with DVB update channels (update pid, pid and names, names only, transponder...) I sometimes lock the HBO channel (no a/v and OSD Channel Locked). Also when checking dvbsnoop I noticed some lines with CA (i think it stands for Conditional Access) in them. But recently I can't reproduce that behaviour no matter what I do. But I'm paying for HBO and I can watch it in VLC and (most of the times) in VDR. Running iptv-plugin with EXT and using VLC in VDR does not work (A/V OK, but again no subtitles). Also it seems a bit crashy, so I would rather get it working this way. So far I read the man pages for VDR, VDR wiki in english, some pages in german and IPTV plugin readme. I searched the net, vdr-portal.de and this mailig list for subtitles, untertitel, dvb subtitles problems, etc, but I could not find the answer. I posted this question on vdr-portal: http://www.vdr-portal.de/board/thread.php?threadid=99300 and spent some time in the vdr irc channel (thank you again nox), but no matter what I do, I can't get those pesky DVB subtitles to display. I tried hts tvheadend, mythtv and even media portal but they are all flawed in one way, or the other. But because VDR is in a league of its own, I'm bothering all of you. VDR has no problems with 1080i/p channels, fast channel switching and even I can't crash it. Also yaVDR 0.2 is realy practical. Because this is the first time I came into contact with DVB, IPTV, SID's, PID's, etc, I'm probably doing something wrong and any help is deply appreciated. Some more info: my setup.conf http://pastebin.com/7jMjB0pb one of my channels.conf: http://pastebin.com/yX4NwBvs Thanks for reading all of my problems, and I hope someone can help.

Re: [vdr] vdr-iptv-plugin DVB subtitles problems
Stream 3 Type: Subtitle Original ID: 7302 Codec: DVB Subtitles (dvbs) Language: sloven??ina Description: DVB subtitles HBO;IPTV:110:S=0|P=0|F=UDP|U=239.1.1.151|A=5000:I:0:810=2:8...@4:7302:0:222:0:0:0 0 Somehow your VDR thinks that the pid 7302 is teletext and not DVB subtitle. DVBsubs pids aren't stored into channels.conf, but always detected dynamically. I manualy entered the teletext pid, because I started experimenting. VDR's channels.conf entry would be: HBO;IPTV:10:S=0|Š=1|F=UDP|U=239.1.1.151|A=5000:I:0:810:8...@4:0:0:1:0:0:0 What suprises me, is that your plugin detects the subtitle pid Info/PIDs correctly (thank you for your work btw). If I record the video with VDR and run dvbsnoop |grep 7302 (subtitles id) I get no results (dvbsnoop can't analyze live iptv streams). I also dumped the stream with mplayer and tried playing back the video, but there were no subtitles (record subtitles is checked in options). But because this is the first time I ran dvbsnoop and even after reading dvbsnoops man pages, I'm not sure if I did everything right. I'm also not very good with mplayer, so i ran with -alang, maybe I'm doing something wrong? Last time I checked the mplayer it didn't support DVBsubs, but I had to hack the support by myself (google: mplayer-dvbsubs-svn-20091207.patch.gz). You should really should provide us a small piece of original multicast stream recorded with emcast/vlc/... Here is the VDR recording: http://93.103.40.144/01.ts Here is the VLC recording: http://93.103.40.144/vlc.ts I think mplayer got their act together regarding subtitle support, but I'm not sure. I think -alang slv should work for DVBs. Tvich ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
