Re: [vdr] FreeviewHD compressed EPG

The patch is here: http://www.rst38.org.uk/vdr/freesat.diff The first hunk fails to apply but this is ok because that part of the patch is relevant to freesat only. The decompressed EPG has many 'holes' in it due to incomplete Huffman lookup tables in the freesat.diff. I did manage to port the Freesat lookup tables from the Eepg plugin to the freesat.diff and I can now receive what appears to be the complete FreeviewHD EPG :-) Oooo...I'll try to give it a go in the next few days. I never saw any real difference from running the eepg plugin! What's the best way of filling in the gaps in the lookup tables? Modify the patch so that unknown sequences are dumped along with surrounding words so that they can be added by hand? How many gaps are you seeing at the moment?

The ones in the patch are those deduced through observation, there's an updated version of those here: http://rst38.org.uk/vdr/freesat_tables_20081027.zip Those files are completely legitimate. The complete tables were extracted from an OTA firmware upgrade and are complete.

I was using complete with the patch before I switched to eepg and I'm pretty sure I did notice holes very occasionally. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
