No idea anyone?

What else besides continuity errors could be checked, to see if a TS
recording has errors?

A known bug in VDR 1.7.16. In the Debian package I fixed this in version

If it's just about the VDPAU support, you can use the xine 1.1.19 from

[vdr] Detecting recording errors

2011-01-10 Thread Tobias Grimm
Hi!

Is there a patch/plugin/tool/whatever which would make VDR somehow tag
recordings where there were stream-error when recording?

It shouldn't be too hard to scan a *.ts-File for discontinuity errors,
but I would like to make VDR detect this while recording and somehow set
a flag, so I can see if a recording might have errors.

BR,

Take the next step and do:

mkdir -p //<*.rec>

Then link every file from the original source to
//<*.rec>/.

e.g.:

http://pastie.org/1390385

(vdrcut source target 00:00:05.00 00:00:10.00)

[vdr] Framerates

2010-12-27 Thread Tobias Grimm
Hi!

I have tiny question:

When recording from a HD channel (720p50), the *.rec/info -file tells me
the recording has a framerate of 25 fps. mediainfo or ffmpeg detect
50 fps. Why such a difference? And what's the framerate the frame number
in the *.rec/marks -file is based on?

I've already tried this (not in bash, but a similar approach). But I
would like to avoid writing to the source dir and I would like to be
able to do multiple cuts in parallel. But maybe I should reconsider this
for the sake of simplicity.

Would be great to have such options, but I don't know if there's a "big
need" for this. It's just what I need right now, because hlcut only
works with the old PES recordings.

There's one big recording, where I want to cut several recordings from
using different sets of cut marks and store them under different names
outside of the video directory.

I finally manage to extract the cutting code from VDR into a separate
tool. Needs some finishing, but as soon as I'm happy with it, I'll make
it available at projects.vdr-developer.org, just in case someone's
interested in it.

Thanks, but I guess I should have been more specific.

I'm more looking for something that allows me to specify the source

Please forget my private mail. With a small hint from Sascha I found the
problem. The usage of "$" in the format strings contained in the English
texts lead to a truncation of the string, because VDR uses "$" to
separate a context string from the English translation. That's why I
didn't had this problem in German :-)

A fixed Debian package (version 0.1.0~pre21-4) is available in my
repository. Until it's fixed in the CVS, a patch can be downloaded here:

Probably not - but would have been easier to track down the problem, if

At least one person at the German vdrportal.de seems to have the same

If you're using Debian, please try the burn package from here:

deb-src http://e-tobi.net/vdr-experimental sarge vdr

It works fine with Sarge.

It would help much, if you could provide a core dump or backtrace.

This looks like bug #178
(http://vdr-developer.org/mantisbt/view.php?id=178), which is already
solved in the current CVS version. The problem is with recordings in
subdirectories. If you set the "Remove path component" setting to "yes",
the problem should not appear.
