Well, have a look into xineDevice.c and locate
cXineDevice::HasIBPTrickSpeed(). Then remove the comment and
apply the attached patch to VDR.
The problem is, that I don't know which speed calculation to use
in SetTrickSpeed(). So I asked kls to supply this info as in the
attached patch but he thinks of changing the semantic of
SetTrickSpeed() at all. That's why I haven't released this
functionality yet.
Bye.

Well, the attached patch is better than nothing but a better
approach would be to render both fields into a single surface

But with VDPAU I have two issues and this is why I haven't upgraded to VDPAU completely as off yet: 1. The maximum usage through VDPAU is in my case an additional 50W (compared to the ExtensionHD with a maximum of 10W) because I've got a PCI-e based videocard; 2. Using plugins like vdr-xine and/or xineliboutput you have buffering time which is annoying for zap speeds on encrypted channels. Currently I use the Reel-VDR fork and it seems to work quite nicely.

To me, vdpau is the best thing that's ever happened to the htpc world next to VDR of course... When it comes to xine-lib, I must say that XBMC uses vdpau in a better way.

I fightet any times ago with the same problem.
eHD was not usable.
In my case, i found a solution in vdrportal.de for the dvb card
budget-core driver.
I am load now the budget-core driver with a bigger bufsize,
after this eHD work perfektly, no freez video anymore.
On gentoo im added to /etc/modrobe.d/budget-core{.conf}
options budget_core bufsize=1410
update-modules --force, reload module budged-core or reboot
good luck

And I finally tested with 1.7.0 wich is known to work pretty stable with the eHD. All three versions show the same problem. It works for a few Minutes and then the eHD freezes. Since this happens with three different sofware setups, and because the eHD is always kompletly dead (it needs a power off to restart), i also suspected a hardware problem.

Working for hours daily without problems, but huge patching of vdr and reelbox plugin (and skinreel3 plugin) is necessary.

It was written for vdr-1.7.5, but I'm now using it with vdr-1.7.7 without problems. The problems you are talking about could also be due to problems in TS stream as reelbox plugin don't test too much incoming data. Distorted data could cause hangup of eHD.

Are you sure you're not experiencing driver problems? Btw, the vdpau devs are really good about fixing things if you provide them with a sample to work with. A backtrace doesn't hurt either. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

OTOH with my setup it works poorly (artifacts, banding, freezing, changes in color, etc.) and I'm not the only one, so I'm not sure vdpau support is mature enough for inclusion in xine-lib.

Hopefully the VDPAU is more promising. Sorry for OT but just wanted to note that I and many other users I know are using VDPAU now and it works great. I believe the devs are preparing to submit a patch to Darren Salt so it may become a part of vanilla xine-lib.

I've been using 1.7.x with mpeg-ts and have never seen the problems you describe. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

Hello, I installed vdr-1.7.6 + reelbox plugin a week ago using: http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/OpenSUSE_VDR_DVB-S2#openSUSE_VDR_DVB-S2_-_Teil2.1:_eHD which propably is the one you are refering to. Then I applied the vdr-1.7.6-1.7.7.diff patch which worked except that I had to change the osd.h file a little for the patch to run without complaints. There is some memory leak problem with vdr-1.7.7 but Klaus is looking into it, see: http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/vdr/2009-May/020636.html Reelbox plugin still occasionally freezes, but so it has always done. The reelbox plugin is of course a joke and I deeply regret buying the card from Reel-Multimedia. Hopefully the VDPAU is more promising.

[vdr] ExtensionHD and VDR 1.7.6
Hello, i recently built a vdr-1.7.6 + reelbox pluging, following the vdr-wiki for VDR DVB-S2 on OpenSuse. Everything was build properly, but unfortunately the eHD freezes after a few Minutes (not only when replaying recordings, but also with live TV). I know that there are some problems concerning the new TS format of VDR. Does anyone have a solution for this problem? I don't like the idea to use VDR 1.7.0 or an even older version. Any help is greatly appreceated. -- Falk Spitzberg Tel: +49 5242 901626 E-Mail: p...@spitzberg.de ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
