[vdr] [ANNOUNCE] skin nOpacity 0.1.0

2013-03-25 Thread Stefan Braun
Hi Rene,

fine that you got the skin running finally ;)

 I can now change to the theme, but i don't get the video resized even if
 that setting is set..

 Any idea what i might have missed?
 
Yes...the output device has to implement the VDR scaling API introduced by 
Klaus in VDR1.7.33. xineliboutput has not been updted for this afaik, so 
scaling is not working with this output device currently. I don't know if the 
developer will implement it.

btw: softhddevice has implemented the scaling API and scaling works fine with 
this output plugin ;)

Cheers Louis

 Hi Louis,

 I start xineliboutput with the following line

 xineliboutput --local=none --remote=37890 --primary --fullscreen

 I tried to add --hud but it did not work. To had to remove first
 --fullscreen because vdr did not start, but to the end i had the same
 problem: no osd :-(

 I tried to install softhddevice, but i could not get it to compile due
 to missing libraries etc. If you know which packages is needed in
 Ubuntu, then it would be great to get help with this :-)

Hi Louis,

Now i got all compoled. I recompiled everything (vdr etc) and i managed
(i think) to get all libraries installed too.

 Are you saying there's some special ubuntu version of the VDR  
plugins source?


 Anyways, when you try compiling, you likely have errors like some
 file.pc is missing. So you can do `apt-file search file.pc` to find
 the package that file belongs to, and then install the package.

Fantastic! I did not know about apt-file...! Now it's just to search for 
what's missing when a compilation fails.. Now i got softhddevice 
compiled, so next step will bet to try out how that will work


Thanks

Why don't you use `apt-file search` to identify the packages which
contain the files you're missing?

Re: [vdr] [ANNOUNCE] skin nOpacity 0.1.0

2013-03-13 Thread Stefan Braun
Hi,

One additional technical remark: the skin uses intensively the eMenuCategory 
enumeration introduced in VDR 1.7.34 to determinate which menu has to be 
displayed and if this menu should be displayed narrowly or in default style. 

So plugins like epgsearch or extrecmenu which replace VDR menus also have to 
set correct MenuCategories to be displayed correctly by the skin. In the newest 
versions of these plugins this is already implemented, so you should use always 
the latest git version of these plugins.

One remaining issue with older plugins which are not already adapted to this 
new behaviour is the following: in plugins with dedicated setup menus which 
inherit from cMenuSetupPage the menu category mcSetup is set by the constructor 
of VDRs cMenuSetupPage, but this category should only be used by the main setup 
menu from VDR (which is diplayed narrow by default in the skin). To solve this, 
in the constructors of these plugin menus a different menu category (for 
instance mcSetupPlugins) has to be set via a call to SetMenuCategory:

SetMenuCategory(mcSetupPlugins);

Cheers Louis
