[vdr] ERROR: LIRC remote control thread xx won't end

2006-11-02 Thread Markus Hahn
Hi there, 
due to debuging purposes I set in 
void cThread::Cancel(int WaitSeconds)
WaitSeconds = 6000; 
between the waits  of 3 seconds I  syslog the message: "thread won`t end" . 


At vdr shutdown I get the (endless) error message :

[vdr]  ERROR: LIRC remote control thread xxx  won't end  
_until_ I pressed any key. 

If Cancel() kills a thread, it ends up with a Segfault mostly. 

Does anybody noticed this behavior to?

Maybe there must be another interrogation  of Running() in lirc.c 

regards Markus

It seems like it isn't specific to SVDRP anyway. I've rewritten boxstar
to use the remote plugin and it's still got the same problem: the
progress bar freezes, and VDR stops acting on keystrokes, but the video
carries on playing. I can "reset" it it by stopping and restarting xine,
which makes VDR go back to playing live TV; if I try to play the
recording again I find it has jumped forward by a large amount.

This is with VDR 1.4.1, vdr-xine 0.7.9 and xine-lib 1.1.2. I tried
upgrading to VDR 1.4.3 but that's a disaster, it crashes the DVB cards
as soon as Xine connects. vdr-xine is relatively old; I guess it needs
an overhaul, and it could even be the cause of the original problem. Is
there a newer "developer" version hidden away on a different site? The
problems might be peculiar to df_xine, otherwise surely someone else
using xine would have noticed by now, but I don't see how it could
affect VDR like that unless the problem is in xine-lib.

[vdr] FF card a/v sync + dvd plugin

2006-11-02 Thread Halim Sahin
Hi list,

I tested a dvd with softdevice and the audio stuttering problem did not 
occur.
With my FF-DVB card I can not watch a dvd and switch capters or use the 
jump feature of the dvd-plugin.
What do you think about this.
Perhaps this can be the same Problem with 
the dvd-plugin and the FF-DVB 
card a/v sync stuff?
Best regards

[vdr] Xineliboutput with DirectFB

xineliboutput produces a black/white fluttering picture where you can only guess
that it is a vdr message (learning keys).

The question is, if you have a working softdevice, why do you need the 
xineliboutput? I've got a similar setup and it's working fine using 
softdevice.

Hi,
i want to run it with mythtv :) and for that i need to get vdr in background

And last reason is it might be a xinelibouput plugin problem with dfb, and

You could try the vdr-xine (aka Xine Device) plugin on the local PC with
df_xine. xinefb might work as well. I use df_xine with a Matrox G450;
the only difference I can see between what you and I are trying to do is
that I use boxstar instead of mythtv. I had a similar problem with
df_xine producing a broken picture; the solution was to use '-l 0' to
force it to use the correct layer.

xineliboutput might still work alongside vdr-xine for remote viewing on
an X desktop. I'll have to try that.  Currently I just record anything I
want to watch remotely and play it back over NFS.

Another good reason to use xineliboutput instead of softdevice is that
xine is much better at A/V sync than softdevice IME.

[vdr] LCD plugin

2006-11-02 Thread Simon Baxter

Hi.

Can anyone point me to a good resource for building an LCD display?

The LCD plugin page is great for controller support etc, but how do I get a 
display actually hooked up?  Or is there a nice kit out there, with a good 
resolution, that fits in a 3.5" drive bay slot??

Hi,

why dont you take a look at the files bundeled with the plugin?
are you looking out for - a text or gfx display?

3.5" seems a little small for me. i dont think there are plenty of

are you fine with soldering yourself?

I got myself an Origen VFD unit. It's a bit on the small side, 16x2 but for me 
quite sufficient. It should fit into a 5,25" drive bay, drivers can be found 
at http://www.irtrans.de/
In Finland it cost about 80 euros, dunno about other countries.

Ah, I should have mentioned that you _must_ not toggle full screen ->
windowed mode, as windowed mode works with some default values
which even did not work previously (thats why I ask for full screen mode).

I'll send you a patch tomorrow that will restrict these values.

You might want to also look for graphical Noritake VFD displays for
example, http://www.noritake-elec.com/, you can find PDFs with exact
dimensions on their website (at least it was possible some time ago,
haven't checked recently), and even data sheets with the command set if
there is no driver yet, in graphlcd-base (used by vdr-graphlcd for
example). I have a 128x64 800A series and am very pleased with it.
