Re: [vdr] check cam status [writing plugin help needed]
I'd like to write a plugin which can provide the displayed Setup>CAM status via an SVDRP command, and maybe check the CAM menu can be accessed. Had no response on this - guess we have no plugin writers with time on their hands to help? Can I use these functions in ci.h? virtual bool Reset(int Slot) = 0; ///< Resets the CAM in the given Slot. ///< Returns true if the operation was successful. virtual eModuleStatus ModuleStatus(int Slot) = 0; ///< Returns the status of the CAM in the given Slot. I just need a very simple svdrp plugin that will 1) check the status of a CAM in a given slot via an svdrp command and 2) reset that cam via another svdrp command What core vdr files do I need to include? How do I reference or call functions within those core files? ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
Re: [vdr] check cam status [writing plugin help needed]
I'd like to write a plugin which can provide the displayed Setup>CAM
status via an SVDRP command, and maybe check the CAM menu can be accessed.
As a beginner to such things, can someone help?
I basically want to implement bits of menu.c (the CAM status and menu
accessing parts) via SVDRP.
Can someone please help?
If I pull some of the following from menu.c I think this should give me
what I want:
Get list of availablecams:
void cMenuCam::GenerateTitle(const char *s)
{
SetTitle(cString::sprintf("CAM %d - %s", camSlot->SlotNumber(), (s && *s)
? s : camSlot->GetCamName()));
}
Get the CAM status (being Ready, Present, -, or "Alphacrypt" etc:
bool cMenuSetupCAMItem::Changed(void)
{
char buffer[32];
const char *CamName = camSlot->GetCamName();
if (!CamName) {
switch (camSlot->ModuleStatus()) {
case msReset: CamName = tr("CAM reset"); break;
case msPresent: CamName = tr("CAM present"); break;
case msReady: CamName = tr("CAM ready"); break;
default:CamName = "-"; break;
}
}
snprintf(buffer, sizeof(buffer), " %d %s", camSlot->SlotNumber(),
CamName);
if (strcmp(buffer, Text()) != 0) {
SetText(buffer);
return true;
}
return false;
}

Re: [vdr] check cam status [writing plugin help needed]
Ideally, I'd like a way to "ask vdr" the status of the CAM from a script.
I know this is available on the OSD by going into the "SETUP > CAM" menu
where the CAM is displayed as "CAM Ready", "CAM Present" or "Alhpacrypt"
but I need to do this outside the OSD.
Anyone have any ideas how to do this?

I want to use svdrpdemo as the starting point. What else do I need to
include in this?
#include "menu.h"
#include "svdrpservice.h" (from femon plugin)
??
