[vdr] vdr-1.5.10, dxr3 and subtitles
Hi! Anybody using vdr-1.5.10, dxr3 and subtitles? I'm (trying to) use it, but all subtitles have the lines caused by "too many colors in a region". I can't find the dxr3-compatibility option that used to be there in the plugin. I have disabled antialiasing in vdr's OSD settings. Anybody got dxr3 working with subtitles properly in this version? Perhaps there's a patch somewhere I haven't found? Or the setup option is hidden somewhere I couldn't find it? Or, maybe it hasn't been implemented yet in vdr-1.5.10 at all? Just wondering, - Ville -- -- Ville Aakko - [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

Maybe the dxr3 device doesn't correctly respond to the CanHandleAreas() call? See cDvbSubtitleConverter::FinishPage(), the calls to sr->ReduceBpp() and sr->ShrinkBpp().

[vdr] vdr-1.5.10, segfault on startup
Hi!
Due to some weird "Sans Serif:Bold" bold font on my freshly installed
open-suse 10.3 system I get a "segmentation fault" on startup.
I had this already with one of the previous vdr versions and on my suse
10 linux, I just thought there must be something messed up on my rather
old system.
Now, that I still got this exception I tried to track it down using gdb:
I've come to cFont::GetFontFilename where FcFontSort returns "null".
I simple check (if fontset != null) fixed the segfault:
FcFontSet *fontset = FcFontSort(NULL, pat, FcFalse, NULL, NULL);
if (fontset != NULL)
{
for (int i = 0; i < fontset->nfont; i++) {
FcBool scalable;
FcPatternGetBool(fontset->fonts[i], FC_SCALABLE, 0, &scalable);
if (scalable) {
FcChar8 *s = NULL;
FcPatternGetString(fontset->fonts[i], FC_FILE, 0, &s);
FontFileName = (char *)s;
break;
}
}
FcFontSetDestroy(fontset);
}
VDR then started, just without any text output.
After installing some additional fonts this has been fixed too ...
I think the NPE check would be great to be added to VDR.
Thanks!
Ciao,
Mario

To get some more weired AVI formats into shape for FF cards, I use the
following additional transcode parameters:
width=720,height=576,canvas-width=720,canvas-height=576,canvas-aspect=4:3,fps=25
This will letterbox or pillarbox into PAL 4:3 video with 25fps, in case
the original format is something else. These parameters are supported
since vlc-0.8.5.
Cheers,
Udo

Maybe I'll have a look at it tomorrow. Meanwhile, you could have a look at this issue with this gdb command: thread apply all bt It'll tell you the backtrace for all threads. Bye. -- Dipl.-Inform.

Each instance of VDR writes into epg.data without any locking or so. If you set up more than one VDR that write to the same epg.data, the last one writing it will "win", and if they write at the same time, results may be undefined.

Oops, with the new patched ffmpeg/xine-lib-1.2/vdr-xine it don't segfault (but I still can't access my VDR after a "shutdown try".

They are well synchronized, the only strange thing is, that after a very short time the subtitles dissapears for a fraction of a second, but then it is redisplayed, and stays until it has to.

Re: [vdr] VDR 1.5.10, Subtitles gets out of sync
Let me correct myself :) I made a VDR restart (very unusual for me:) ), and now the subtitles (BBC Prime - UPC ) are just fine with the patch applied. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
