It should be more feasible to utilize the original command line femon tool and RRDtool instead of the plugin.

I was mostly thinking about the casual use, similar to how most CPU usage tools shows a history graph of the measured values. -- -Tor ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

Even better if it was possible to trigger such monitoring without the femon display showing. I think this would be possible with a small script getting the current femon status via svdrp (plug femon sgnl/snra) and put this data into an rrd database, from where you can easily generate nice looking graphs. You should run the script at let's say every 5 minutes or so using crontab. I'm doing the same for logging my system health status. http://fuley.ro/cgi-bin/sensord.cgi Just a little advertising for my dbus2vdr plugin: https://github.com/flensrocker/vdr-plugin-dbus2vdr With this, you can get data from plugins with dbus calls which wouldn't block the svdrp service and are executed in its own thread. dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=de.tvdr.vdr \ --print-reply /Plugins/pluginname \ de.tvdr.vdr.plugin.SVDRPCommand string:'command' string:'parameter' From python is calling a dbus method a lot easier (I heard), but haven't tried it own my own. Don't forget to configure the system bus so the calling user is allowed to access it for the vdr-dbus-service, for an example please look at https://github.com/flensrocker/vdr-plugin-dbus2vdr/blob/master/etc/de.tvdr.vdr.conf Regards, Lars.
