Hi, Thanks for the tip. This seems to do the trick. Channel lock is no more lost after the first 60 secs of inactivity after bootup. I have directed EPG runtime files to TMP folder, so I guess this contributes to this problem because at boot time there is no EPG files at all. - Mike N _ Windows Live Hotmail: Your friends can get your Facebook updates, right from HotmailĀ®. http://www.microsoft.com/middleeast/windows/windowslive/see-it-in-action/social-network-basics.aspx?ocid=PID23461::T:WLMTAGL:ON:WL:en-xm:SI_SB_4:092009 ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

I don't know how you could find the length; maybe it's a simple calculation from the size of the index.vdr file? To find the aspect ratio you could use: mplayer -ao null -vo null -frames 1 -identify 001.vdr | grep ASPECT -- TH * http://www.realh.co.uk ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

If the recordings store PCR, you could just read the first and last PCR and do some quick math? ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

Does vdr store the pcr? What do you mean with quick math? Can you post an example? Regards halim ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

No, it doesn't. You can take the size of the index file, divide it by 8 and you get the number of frames in the recording. The info file tells you the number of frames per second (at least with newer TS recordings). Klaus ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
