Re: [vdr] femon 1.6.3 - some remarks
Hi Yes exactly, the system do not hang or crash with debug stack trace but you have access to nothing , femon seems to continue to work, the displayed number move but no channels displayed (no image signal on xine) , unable to enter OSD menu and you have to kill vdr to exit But ... if you enter and leave before switch channels with arrow keys all is OK, should it confirm it is the way femon change channels ? Best regards Selon Vladimir Monchenko [EMAIL PROTECTED]: As reproduce femon hangs: call femon and switching of channels upwards/downwards pass to the channel which has no signal.

Re: [vdr] femon 1.6.3 - some remarks
I have installed femon 163 with my vdr 170. There's some remarks concerning of h264 channels no any information in CoderateH (I can see only ---) The plugin doesn't support multiproto/S2API and therefore channels using new coderates like 9/10 are shown as data invalid (---). ok, I will check with another fec in BITRATE field I can see only ---(6 Mbit/s) FRAME RATE - --- Codec - H264 I don't have any access to H.264 (or HE-AAC) streams so support for these are more like academic. The bitrate, framerate, and scan type aren't parsed at the moment as my blindly written code didn't worked right from the start. This particular piece of code was hidden behind #if pragmas in femonh264.c, so it would be nice, if someone could take a look at it and send be a patch. -- |## Channel Name ## [AR][VF][A/DD][D]| |[ Signal Strength in % ==|=]| |[ Signal-to-Noise Ratio in % |=]| | STR: # (0%) BER: # Video: 0 Mbit/s | | SNR: # (0%) UNC: # Audio: 0 kbit/s | | [LOCK] [SIGNAL] [CARRIER] [VITERBI] [SYNC] | -- I can see without any problem video/audio bitrate on the top right of OSD (that's why the bitrate is parsed at the moment correctly) , but I don't see video/audio bitrate below in OSD Audio stream #0 () Codec - --- Channel Mode - --- Bitrate - --- Sampling Frequency - --- This looks also ok. Non-existent audio pid provides no stream information.

Please, use vanilla (or _only_ liemikuutio patched) VDR for testing. There 2 active femon users (me and my friend), so the testing has been quite light - at least I haven't got any bug/success reports from other users. :) the same problem was described on our Russian-vdr forum from other vdr user.

The calculated bitrate is always available if enabled in setup as it simply calculates the data rate of a selected pid in defined time period. The nominal bitrate is kind of maximum bitrate value as a hint for the decoder. the same problem was described on our Russian-vdr forum from other vdr user.

Re: [vdr] femon 1.6.3 - some remarks
I confirm also that femon 163 + vdr 1.7.0 + H264 + multiproto hang when you change channel while femon is displaying info, happen often when going from H264 to Mpeg2 channels (like simul HD and Simul SD on Astra 19.2) No problem at all if you close femon before switching channels I'm happy to see that you have signal strength with S2API, with multiproto plus on S2-3200 nothing appears (Quality + level = 0) :o( with hvr4000 and multiproto I had signal strength and SNR with old femon version. do you have this figures (snr/sig) with szap-s2 or xmlscan ?

Re: [vdr] femon 1.6.3 - some remarks
With older version of femon or this one, when I go trough multiproto + no signal or quality appear with my S2-3200 or with Nova - T -500 even of szap (stay at zero). I use an HD receiver to point out my dish, so no theorical need of it on femon, even if it should be nice. By the way I have a question about HVR4000 and femon : do both tuner DVB-t and DVB-s working simultaneously when switching ?

Femon uses DVB API v3 to fetch the necessary information - it's up to the driver if multiple frontends can be used simultaneously in applications.
