[vdr] UK FreeviewHD and VDR

2011-08-11 Thread Chris Rankin
Hi, I currently use VDR to watch Freeview in the UK, and it works great with a Hauppauge NOVA-T-USB2 adapter. However, this adapter isn't compatible with DVB-T2 and so I've now ordered a nanoStick T2 290e and have upgraded to the Linux 3.0.1 kernel in eager anticipation. My ultimate goal is to

[vdr] UK FreeviewHD and VDR

2011-08-11 Thread Chris Rankin
I haven't pushed it upstream to Klaus, I think the preferable solution is to do it as a plugin - search for the eepg plugin which incorporates the parsing code. OK, thanks. Fedora 15 is still using VDR 1.6.x but the plugin looks small enough that I'm hoping it will work anyway :-). BTW, I

[vdr] FreeviewHD channels.conf OK for xine, but not for VDR

Using scandvb with the -o vdr parameter is failing, but without it I get the following lines: BBC HD:55400:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_2_3:FEC_AUTO:QAM_256:TRANSMISSION_MODE_8K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32:HIERARCHY_NONE:0:0:17472 BBC One

Now xine isn't tuning into the HD channels again either. Maybe it's a problem with the transmitter, but I'm thinking that the DVB userspace doesn't have enough support for DVB-T2 yet. Cheers, Chris ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org

Re: [vdr] FreeviewHD success with Nanostick 290e

2011-08-20 Thread Chris Rankin
Laz, I've finally managed to tune my 290e in as well. I have discovered that I need to remove all of the 2-way splitters that I'd been using to connect everything up to the wall socket, and then w_scan and scandvb can find the HD signal. But my version of ffmpeg (0.6.3) is struggling to

[vdr] xine with new AAC LATM support

2011-09-13 Thread Chris Rankin
Hi, Just in case anyone is interested: There has been a sudden spike in xine development (1.1.19 branch), and AAC LATM audio should now be working with MPEG-TS streams. You will also need to be using FFmpeg = 0.7. Cheers, Chris ___ vdr mailing

Have your patches been merged yet? When will they be merged into the xine-lib-1.2 tree? I don't know anyone still using 1.1 since 1.2 is where the vdpau dev happens. Yes, the patches have now all been merged into the xine-lib tree: http://hg.debian.org/hg/xine-lib/xine-lib I suspect that

[vdr] DVB-T2 tuning

2011-10-10 Thread Chris Rankin
Hi, I'm assuming that VDR-1.7.x can tune into DVB-T2 channels, but it seems that Fedora 16 will still be using VDR-1.6.x. This is probably because VDR-1.7 is a development version, but I'd like to be able to use my PCTV 290e adapter in Fedora. So it looks like the DVB-T2 tuning parameters

[vdr] DVB-T2 tuning

2011-10-10 Thread Chris Rankin
Here is what i did with 1.7 vdr. Yes, I know it works in vdr 1.7. And xine's DVB plugin tunes into the HD channels here too. The problem is that Fedora uses vdr 1.6, and this version doesn't work. So obviously the tuning code in vdr 1.7 is different somehow... Thanks, Chris

[vdr] No output via xineliboutput with VDR 1.7.21

Hi, I have just tried installing VDR 1.7.21 (from Fedora RawHide), with the xineliboutput plugin from its git repository. I have managed to get xine to connect to VDR (I think - after I had added 127.0.0.1 to the allowed_hosts.conf file), but I am not receiving any output in the xine window.

you must have an output xineplug_inp_xvdr.so then, you can play using xine cmd line: xine xvdr://127.0.0.1:37890 FYI, I have been successfully using xineliboutput *for years* with VDR 1.6.x. The *only reason* I felt this worth reporting to the mailing list is because it has all stopped

Do you get the red No Signal text on black background? No, I get the xine splash screen instead. Sometimes with the VDR OSD on it... I am using xine-1.1, BTW. Perhaps this is relevant? And as someone also suggested, make sure you have xineliboutput set as your primary device in
