[vdr] VDR keeps restarting.
Hello, I've installed VDR on an ubuntu box, uding the ubuntu packages. (I plan to build one from sources though). This gives me VDR version 1.4.0 First I started VDR with the option to use a NFS mount as the place to store its recordings. VDR worked, and I could watch FTA channels. Recording didn't work wel though, and I suspected that the NFS was to slow, so I changed the video dir to a local one. After that change VDR won't start anymore. runvdr keeps restarting vdr after 11 seconds, and I have absolutely no idea why. There is no information in any logfile whatsoever that gives any hints as to what might have been going on. - Hence my questions: Is it possible to get VDR to be more verbose in its logging? - Is it possible to make VDR log to its own logfile? - What might be causing the restarts evere 11 seconds?

[vdr] VDR recordings and Apple iMovie / iDVD
Hi, has anyone successfully used a Mac and the apps in Apple's iLife suite to (edit and) burn VDR recordings? I'm happy playing them back using VLC, but since the Apple apps only understand the formats supported by Quicktime (and mpeg2 not being one of them), they don't work directly. I'm looking at a couple of options, and before trying further I thought I'll ask if someone's had success already. 1. Buy Apple's MPEG2 decoder. Wouldn't want to invest $20 before knowing it will definitely work. 2. Use VLC to transcode. Takes forever and with my short trial, the output didn't quite work with iMovie. 3. Find a 3rd party application to cut and burn the mpeg2 files directly. br, jussi -- . jussi mantere . http://www.iki.fi/obs/ ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

Hi, You can watch/edit vdr recordings using Streamclip & Apple's MPEG2 codec. It works very well.
