[vdr] vdr 1.7 -> 2.1 upgrade tips (FHS)

2013-11-04 Thread Laurence Abbott

Sounds interesting, if I copy a video off my phone will I be able to see it in vdr without editing folders.conf? I currently switch to xbmc to watch stuff recorded or copied outside of vdr . -Original Message- From: "Klaus Schmidinger" Sent: ‎04/‎11/‎2013 11:09 To: "vdr@linuxtv.org" S

Softdevice had transparency 'dithering' for when there's only 1-bit transparency, did you look at that option? On 4 November 2013 06:01, Marko Mäkelä wrote: > On Fri, Nov 01, 2013 at 11:19:48PM +0200, Marko Mäkelä wrote: >> >> If I change the assignment to isTrueColor=false, the square goes away

I can't really say if the CVS server is still available. It's been such a long time since I did work on softdevice, and I wasn't the main developer either. On 5 November 2013 00:04, Marko Mäkelä wrote: > On Mon, Nov 04, 2013 at 10:30:14PM +1000, Torgeir Veimo wrote: >> >> Softdevice had transpare

Having had a quick look, I ended up defining both LCLBLD=1 and ONEDIR=1 and it all built fine (with a few edits to add cVideoDirectory:: to the relevant bits in several plugins...) and I was up and running with version 2.1.2. I may or may not look into the FHS bits at a later date... Cheers, Laz
