Hello Rob,
Problem here is, I don't have access to the regular VDR OSD.
I think it's worth using your ubuntu system to get to the vdr interface
every now and then..
Which ubuntu are you using?
feisty
I had to download and compile xine-lib (for multiple audio streams to
work), vdr-1.4.5 (for the development environment) and xineliboutput,
then compiled xinelibout to run as a frontend.
(if you want, I can pack my compiled archives up of these environments
and let you just run make install on them..)
I'd appreciate that. Thanks.
vdr-sxfe xvdr://vdrserver works to get me a vdr interface and picture.
You can even use a remote with it - very nice for watching tv from the bed.
On the server side, compile xineliboutput but don't run a local
frontend, allow remote connections.
I am using the deb packages provided by e-tobi at the moment
For windows, I found the vompclient excellent, although no support yet
for multiple audio streams. Although it won't solve the problem here of
testing the signal level.
I am using VOMP successfully with the Hauppauge MediaMVP. After
installing the DirectX SDK the VOMP-Windows Client works ok, but as
you've said, it won't solve the signal problem.
I will go and try the ubuntu route.
Thanks for your help.
