[vdr] auto shutdown (-s) question
Hi all, I'm playing now with autoshutdown script (the one that is specified with -s switch) and have a question. When power button is pressed, VDR calls the script, but lets say the script decided not to shutdown the PC (other background work is done). I see that VDR shows a countdown of 5 minutes saying that it will shutdown soon. What are the common ways to cancel that? I thought about sending a "back" button using SVDRP. Is there any other methods? When VDR will try to shutdown next? After user idle timeout? Thanks. Alex. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
[vdr] vdr 1.7.4 PTS on old recordings (PES)
I am using vdr 1.7.4 + reelbox plugins (svn today) + the patch provided
by Ales Jurik, http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/vdr/2009-February/019504.html
I managed to get the STC working with the reelbox plugin, by setting
audio to soundcard. When I watch live or play a recording made with
vdr 1.7.4 the subtitles are displayed correctly.
But when trying to play a recording made with vdr 1.6.0 (PES) I get
no subtitles at all.
In void cDvbSubtitleConverter::Action(void) I added:
if (cDvbSubtitleBitmaps *sb = bitmaps->First()) {
int64_t STC = cDevice::PrimaryDevice()->GetSTC();
+ fprintf(stderr,"PTS: %lld STC: %lld timeout: %d\r\n", sb->Pts(),
cDevice::PrimaryDevice()->GetSTC(), sb->Timeout());
With the vdr-1.7.4 recording I get:
PTS: 3453357752 STC: 3453096328 timeout: 5
PTS: 3453357752 STC: 3453107848 timeout: 5

PTS: 3453357752 STC: 3453134728 timeout: 5

PTS: 3453357752 STC: 3453157768 timeout: 5
PTS: 3453357752 STC: 3453165448 timeout: 5
PTS: 3453357752 STC: 3453173128 timeout: 5
PTS: 3453357752 STC: 3453184648 timeout: 5
With the vdr-1.6.0 recording I get:
PTS: 4194503 STC: 3346232463 timeout: 3
PTS: 4194455 STC: 3346240143 timeout: 3
PTS: 4194449 STC: 3346263183 timeout: 4
PTS: 4194455 STC: 3346282383 timeout: 4
PTS: 4194545 STC: 3346512783 timeout: 4
PTS: 4194436 STC: 3346812304 timeout: 6
PTS: 4194439 STC: 3347223184 timeout: 4

No, sorry. I don't have VDR integrated in XBMC. I switch between XBMC and vdr-sxfe with remote. I still use VDR 1.6.0 and there is no patch for this version. I use only analog tv and dvb-t, so I have no hdtv. I didn't try mkv files and the max. resolution of my plasma is 1280x720. I wrote it only because I like the look of xbmc very much and i like the idea to integrate vdr into it. Gerald ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
[vdr] Streamdev Server and the Mediagate 800
Hi, I am trying to stream from VDR to my Mediagate 800 Network Media Player using the Streamdev Server plugin. The MG 800 successfully plays streamed content from the internet, but has problems with a stream from the streamdev server. The URL I am using from the player is identical to one that mplayer can play, e.g. 'http://192.168.0.4:3000/1'. When streamdev receives this it switches to the channel (the dish moves if I am currently viewing a channel from a different satellite), however the media player immediately indicates that it cannot play the stream, and streamdev simultaneously closes the connection. I have applied the patpmt_first_v5.diff patch prepared to fix a similar problem with the Popcornhour NMT which is a similar device to the MG 800, but to no avail. Going by messages in syslog I believe that the problem is somewhere in the negotiation between the MG 800 and the streamdev server which breaks down before the server starts the streamer, but this is conjecture atm. Because the MG 800 is effectively a black box I am going to have to attack this from the VDR/Streamdev end. What additional trace can I get out of streamdev (and how) that will help get to the bottom of this. All help appreciated. Mark. This is an email from Fujitsu Australia Limited, ABN 19 001 011 427.

VDR does not know whether the shutdown script initiated the shutdown or decided to ignore it, so it simply sets the SHUTDOWNRETRY time (6 minutes) until next shutdown attempt. The 5-minute countdown will automatically start after the first minute. > What are the common ways to cancel that? > I thought about sending a "back" button using SVDRP. Is there any other > methods? There is no official way to announce background activity from outside of VDR. Sending a keystroke would work, but probably shifts shutdown several hours into the future. Sending a poweroff when done is also a bad idea, as an user might be using VDR by now. The easiest way is to just assume that no one sees the countdowns, and keep trying shutdown until it succeeds. Any user activity will make the countdown disappear anyway. Plugins have more control over shutdown, they can report their activity and can even announce future activity, leaving VDR the decision to shut down until then or not.

[vdr] vdr-1.7.4 and vdr-burn plugin
Does anyone have the burn plugin working with the latest developer version of VDR. I have managed to get it to compile by tinkering and it starts up ok but as soon as you try to kick off a "create dvd" it crashes VDR? Not being technically competent I am at a dead end. Anyone?
