Re: [vdr] (OFFTOPIC) "EFF reveals plot to cripple European television"
Hi Klaus Schmidinger wrote: > IMHO this was a valuable piece of information Absolutely, since (if this insanity really happens) it means that projects like VDR are effectively dead in the water :( I find it hard to believe that TV networks will be happy with invalidating every piece of DVB hardware sold to date (and selling now), but it will all come down to how much pressure MPAA and friends can bring to bear on them.

Re: [vdr] VDR: Mantis bug tracking and a forum

Often its one of the components which is making problems (a > plugin/patch) and these are on thousend different locations (vdrportal Perhaps using Launchpad would be an idea then? It can be taught about projects and products, so you could have a vdr project with various products registered underneath it (ie vdr and all the components), then bugs can all be tracked in one place and easily moved from the vdr product to another component. It's kinda a shame that so much work goes into the VDR community, but it's spread around the place and hard to keep track of. Hosting code branches on Launchpad (or at least mirroring them there), keeping bugs there and so on, would be very useful, imho.

I've used a PC connected to a 40" Bravia via DVI and it was pretty damn good. If you sat far enough away you could use it comfortably as a monitor.

Not sure how much they differ, but I'm rebuilding packages from www.e-tobi.net and they seem to build ok. I'd guess that something about edgy's toolchain has changed enough that the packages won't build on dapper, or they're just broken atm ;) Cheers, -- Chris Jones [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.tenshu.net ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
[vdr] Recordings sorting
Hi Inspired by the channel sorting thread, I'm wondering if there's any way to have vdr sort recordings by date rather than name? I would think that would be a more obvious default, but even if not, I would like to use it :) Cheers, -- Chris Jones [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.tenshu.net ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
