is anybody working on a EM86xx driver/plugin?
by Harald Milz 14 Nov '05

14 Nov '05

Hi, there used to be a thread in the German-speaking vdrportal about developing a driver for the http://www.allwell.tv/ EM8621L PCI card but the discussion seems to be dead as far as development. How about the Odyssey development or evaluation kits from Sigma Designs themselves? http://www.sigmadesigns.com/products/odyssey_features_specifications.htm has the specs. Sounds very promising for HDTV. Anybody??? And while we're at it - the em8300 Hollywood cards appear to be able to decode a … [View More]

vdr-burn 0.0.6 errors
by Nicolas Huillard 14 Nov '05

14 Nov '05

Hello, I have two annoing errors with the burn plugins 1) freeze when removing finished job * some times, the OSD freezes, and no watchdog restarts VDR, when I manually erase a finished job from the VDR menu * only a restart can solve the freeze, but then the temporary files remain on-disk without possibility to delete them unless using SSH * (as a side-note, I think the limit between user interface and background jobs is not exactly at the right place : one should be able to run all tasks in … [View More]

Aspect ratio changes causes a/v sync problems
by Tero Siironen 14 Nov '05

14 Nov '05

I've problems with playback of recording where two aspect ratio changes occurs in a short time. This causes audio and video to lose their sync. Usually this happens when last ad in commercial break is in 16:9 format, "returning to program"-clip is 4:3 and the program is again in 16:9 format. After this sequence video playback starts to drop frames and audio gets played late compared to video. Rewinding or forwarding the playback a bit corrects the problem until the next commercial break ends. … [View More]

MP3 plugin and ALSA
by Harald Milz 14 Nov '05

14 Nov '05

Hi I recently suggested adding proper ALSA output to the MP3 plugin. Reason: I switched over to softdevice and have no FF card in my system any more (the CPU is not the box heater, as opposed to the rev 1.3 card before ;-) and hence can't use the J2 SPDIF out any more. I noticed last night that softdevice AC3 SPDIF does work for the MP3 plugin as the DVB output channel if MP3 is configured for DVB. D'oh. *rolling eyes* So - for now I'm not going to dig into it - lacking time. -- The … [View More]

Remote plugin breakage with 2.6.15-rc1+ kernel
by C.Y.M 14 Nov '05

14 Nov '05

As of 2.6.15-rc1 (actually the change was originally made in 2.6.14-git8), there is no more /dev/input/event0 node. The nodes now start at event1 and up. This breaks the autodetect feature in the remote plugin for VDR. I was able to kludge a fix by hacking the default to the event I am currently using, but a real fix should be made instead. This is *hacked* fix for a remote that is using event3. This only a kludge. --SNIP-- --- remote-0.3.3/remote.c.orig 2005-11-13 01:59:30.… [View More]

vdr-xine, changing priority of the receiver when connected
by syrius.ml＠no-log.org 14 Nov '05

14 Nov '05

Hi, Sorry if it's a trivial question (or a non-sense one), i'm wondering how I could change the priority of the receiver when xine is connected to vdr-xine. (i may not be using the correct vocabulary) In fact i'd like to resolve some priorities issues. I'm running 2 vdr instances, both with vdr-xine; one is accessing the dvb devices and running streamdev-server, the other one just running streamdev-client. I'd like streamdev-server not to take over vdr-xine when xine is connected to vdr. I … [View More]
