[vdr] Gentoo overlay vdr-devel + vdr-xineliboutput
Hi! (this may not be perfect forum for my question, but..) If I select to use Gentoo overlay vdr-devel to get vdr-1.7.19 I cannot use vdr-xineliboutput-1.0.5-r1 plugin because it's blocked for >=media-video/vdr-1.7 Why? Is there some reason? Because I have seen xineliboutput-plugin working at 1.7.18.. If mainstream gentoo distro wants to block vdr-1.7, should there be newer version of that plugin in vdr-devel overlay? -- JJussi ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
[vdr] May it be possible to use a fullfeature cards as output device only ?
Hi, the tuner part of my fullfeatured card ist broken, so I want to buy a nova card and use this fullfeatured card as output device only. At the moment vdr tries to use this card also as receiver. So may it be possible to tell vdr it should use this card only for output ? -- Best regards Dieter -- I do not get viruses because I do not use MS software.

Hmmm...When I tried it, it didn't seem to touch any of the EPG received from the HD channels, so it remained unreadable. I'll give it another go this weekend, and I'll enable a few more debug messages... Cheers, Laz ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

There's a patch at vdr-portal that allows to disable the tuner of a FF card from the dvbsddevice plugin command line (VDR 1.7 only): http://www.vdr-portal.de/board/thread.php?postid=955899#post955899 Cheers, Udo ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

HD, ITV HD, and other encoded channels alone. It does, however, scramble the EPG for some other, totally unrelated channels on a range of MUXes! I presume it thinks it's encoded and tries to unencode it, scrambling it in the process. One channel EPG that becomes scrambled is QVC so no real loss there! ;-) I thought it had been doing this scrambling when I tried it earlier in the week but have now proved it to myself. Time to start adding some more printfs... Laz ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

The first byte of encoded strings should be 0x1f, followed by 1 or 2 indicating which table should be used (one is optimised for titles, the other for descriptions). "Normal" strings either start with a printable character for the default character set or a code < 0x20 indicating the character set. I use eepg too, but I haven't noticed it scrambling anything (this is probably the first time I've looked at QVC's schedule though ;)). ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
