How is the primary device determined ? The primary device is always the device that does the video output and OSD display. In your case its either the xineliboutput or the pvr350. The primary device is determined by the entry PrimaryDVB in the setup.conf, also available in Setup/DVB. If this device is not able to be primary, VDR searches for the next device that can be primary. The xineliboutput device has the special capability to dynamically switch to be primary device, as soon as a remote connects. If the remote disconnects, the previous primary device takes over again.

[vdr] Primary device
Hello, what is the primary device good for? Is it used as output device when using FF-Cards or is it used for channel scanning or what? I don't have FF-Cards in my setup, and I am getting this error messages when starting VDR: ERROR: invalid primary device number: 4 ERROR: no primary device found - using first device! Everything is working in my setup, so I am just ignoring this error message. I just would like to know what this primary device is good for. Is it save to disable the primary device using the DVBSETUP patch? Thanks, Artem ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
