How about transcoding or remultiplexing the downloaded videos to normal vdr recordings? Is there a way to run a command (like vdr's -r) after a video has been downloaded? I would leave them as transport streams (TS) if I was you, and just get the player to be able to play them. Lots of Linux media players support TS. The reason to keep them as TS is because the TS stream contains error detection CRC checks that can be used by the decoder to hide the errors better. I don't know which Linux decoders use this information yet, but it is good to keep. If you transcode the TS streams to something else you loose all these error detection functions. It would be OK to transcode the TS stream if it contained NO errors, but if it contained errors, it is best to retain that format. Errors normally occur due to interference, e.g. Too much rain for DVB-S, badly pointed antenna, bad lossy cables.

Re: [vdr] Dual DVB-S2 Tuner cards

I get semi random glitches in the recordings that the Satix doesn't get also my Nova S+ (before it packed up last week) doesn't get the glitches. It's significantly better since the upgrade to Ubuntu 10.04, even though I was running 2.6.33 kernel on 9.04 and latest v4l drivers. My next debugging step will be to ditch my Nova T500 for a while, after some reading on the linux-media list it seems this driver doesn't play nicely with busy interrupts and with three tuner cards and six disks this machine is busy. I would be surprised if one DVB card had more or less glitches than another. Glitches on DVB are more likely cause by bad reception so receiver sensitivity and worse S/N ratio would be the most likely causes. DVB satellites move around the sky in a figure of 8 shape, so depending on where your dish is pointing, the signal signal strength might vary over time. Was the S/N ratio the same on both cards? It might be that the hard disks are causing the problem or the filesystem. Which file system are you using? I know rieserfs is particularly bad for low latency application.

Re: [vdr] vdr 1.7.15 eHD French HD DTV

I know there is here a good community of developpers and perhaps someone can look at the src of the hdplayer and see if it could be possible to add the detection of e-ac3 audio format , (and perhaps finding the way to decode it or at least enable the ac3 compatibility?). I have this problem on norwegian terrestrial channels, getting no audio. I have just upgraded to vdr-1.7.15(yavdr 0.2.0). Im using xineliboutput. Have used this ppa https://launchpad.net/~yavdr/+archive/unstable-vdr . Here are the stats: -Audio through xineliboutput doesnt work -Audio through streamdev to vlc(windows 7) works. -Recording plays fine in vlc(windows 7), but not wiht xineliboutput. -Femon 1.7.7 does not detect this audio codec. I have made a recording, here is a sample http://www.nilux.com/2.ts . Dunno if its xineliboutput or vdr. This is a xine problem, and not a vdr problem. Linux mplayer plays that stream's audio so the audio is OK. The latest development version of xine might work better.

Klaus Surely an option here would be to then use a single allow all filter, and then use software to filter after that. I think the PID 0x2000 is the permit all filter. This cheap DVB card could then still be made to work with mythtv. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

With the fglrx driver, the HUD OSD does not work (except, that with the most recent drivers, 9.4 and 9.5, I get HUD OSD if I enable compositing). I fixed my problem.

[vdr] number of remote clients
Hi, I would like to run vdr with more than one remote client using the xinelib plugin. It currently works, and both clients see the same picture. Is it possible to have two clients watching different channels or different recordings? My layout is to have a central server that has the DVB cards in it, and then TVs in different rooms to display the content from the central server.
