Then it will be pushed into background when a higher level OSD comes up, and restored after that. Klaus ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

Are you sure you are using an unpatched vdr? (Sorry, could not resist ;-) ) I do have void cSkinClassicDisplayMessage::SetMessage(eMessageType Type, const char *Text) but this plugin does not use skins at all for its player osd. Just cOsdProvider::NewOsd(). So I dont see how SetMessage() could help me. -- Wolfgang ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

[vdr] ERROR: attempt to open OSD while it is already open - using dummy OSD!
start the osddemo plugin and then echo -e "MESG hallo\nQUIT" |nc localhost 2001 gives me the above error message with vdr 1.5.16 and the message will never be visible. how can a plugin like a music player handle this correctly? It always has an open osd, but of course hides it with Hide(). But vdr does not ask the plugin to hide before trying to show the message, so I am getting the same error message in that situation. I see no way to get rid of it. As a possible solution, can the player control somehow tell vdr that it can handle the message display itself? Something like class cControl : public cOsdObject { public: ... virtual bool DisplayMessage(...) { return false }; so if a player is active, its DisplayMessage is called. Only when it returns false, vdr then tries to display the message. -- Wolfgang ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
