[vdr] UK Channel Logos
I spent some time earlier in Illustrator, sourcing vector images of various UK channel logos from promotional PDFs issued by Freeview, Freesat and Sky and dumped them into individual SVG files for each channel. I've placed them here for now: https://github.com/oldmanuk/uk-channel-logos Ideally these could be used to build a decent set of images for use with VDR (e.g., PearlHD skin), EPG (yaepghd?) and web interface (live). If anyone has any missing channel logos in vector form that they'd like to contribute, feel free. Cheers, Dom ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

My work PC is an Core 1 Duo 1.8GHz running XP. The PC boots to desktop in roughly a minute, but is not usable for another 2 minutes due to high CPU and disk load by McAfee virus scanner. (I use SysInternals Process Explorer to monitor.) Also, every day at 10 I cannot do anything CPU or disk hungry for 1-2 minutes because McAfee does its signature update. You really notice that, even without the sudden increase in fan noise. Just recently I've upgraded the machine from 1.5Gb to 3Gb RAM with noticeable speed improvements. (Visual Studio 2010 is a huge memory hog!) Back when XP was released, it was working with 128Mb RAM, and was well equipped with 256Mb RAM. The OS is still the same...

I can't believe a dvb card vendor sets their minimum requirements based on things such as McAfee loads. It would be absurd to do so. Btw, I used XP as well for many years. However, my boot times were never more then 30 secs. However, I've never bothered running virus scanners or anything like that unless I ran into an actual problem (<10 times since win95), in which case I ran one and then exited the app - never left one running full-time. My XP boxes all had 1GB or 2GB or ram. XP + 2GB + VS6 worked great. I may have also used VS2005 at one point but not since then. Is VS2010 really that much of a resource hog?? ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

Probably not that specific, but they have to calculate an average OS with average software running on it, and for a Windows 7 + basic software, the hardware needs are not much different. > Btw, I used XP as well for many years.

Corporate network, and lots of USB sticks and USB HDDs moving around. Virus scanner is an absolute must have... > My XP boxes all had 1GB or > 2GB or ram. XP + 2GB + VS6 worked great.

I've seen it hogging 1GB of RAM while compiling an medium sized project, 3-4Mb zipped sources. VS08 also takes its part, but VS10 takes more, especially if intellisense and compiler run in parallel. The new IDE is worth it however. Cheers, Udo ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
