Re: [vdr] How to properly attach stream to live view?

Streamdev suffers from a similar problem and would benefit from this patch, too. If a streamdev-client prepars to switch channels, the current stream blocks a device which will also become available a little later. At the moment streamdev temporarily detaches the client's receiver if no other device is able to do the job anyway. With the volatile flag this should no longer be necessary.

[vdr] [Announce] vdr-streamdev-0.5.0 / 0.4.0
Hi there, I finally published new streamdev releases on http://streamdev.vdr-developer.org. Streamdev-0.4.0 is the final release for VDR 1.4.x. There won't be any more updates. Use streamdev-0.5.0 for recent VDRs. IMPORTANT: Please follow the upgrade instructions from the plugin's README file. When updating to streamdev-0.5.0, the following changes are necessary (even if you have been running streamdev-0.5.0pre from CVS before): * Streamdev-server's plugin config directory is now $VDRCONFDIR/plugins/streamdev-server/. Streamdev-server expects the file streamdevhosts.conf in this directory. It is also the default location of the externremux.sh script. * The externremux script is now responsible for emitting all HTTP response headers. Make sure you send out at least the Content-type header and a blank line to terminate the header block. I encourage you to try the new externremux.sh script which ships with the streamdev sources. It fixes several problems with script termination from earlier releases and allows you to change several remux parameters on the fly by specifying URL parameters. The URL path to access externremux changed from EXTERN to EXT. Check the HISTORY for a complete changelog. Here's a brief overview of the most important new features in 0.5.0: - HTTP authentication - CGI like interface and URL parameters for externremux.sh - rewrite of externremux.sh - Multicast streaming server option Thanks to all contributors and sorry for the long time it took to publish this new release. I'll try to release more often now, but don't take my word for it. Frank ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

[vdr] xineliboutput problem on new fedora 13 install
Am getting this error when running with local sxfe frontend.
Strangely, using vdr-sxfe works, it's only the local frontend that
wont start;

Can there be any setting in the xine config_xineliboutput file that
causes the local frontend to fail vdpau initialisation?

hi, Are you using the hud osd? If not, try the latest snapshot from cvs. Last commit says: Fixed startup when not using HUD OSD HTH. halim ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
Re: [vdr] xineliboutput problem on new fedora 13 install
Yes I saw that startup failed if xrender was available, but hud was not in use, but I've got the latest CVS updates, and it still doesn't work.

I've noticed sync problems on those and they could well have been ones I recorded from one of the C4 channels. But I usually record them from satellite rather than Freeview. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

My first attempt was less intrusive by specially marking live related receivers and handling them different on device search, but I decided to go the more complex way to solve the search-new-before-disconnect conflict generally. Seems it has a first use already. :) Cheers, Udo ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
