Yay for UFC!

They re-aired Franklin v. Shamrock recently.  Amazing to see a UFC
legend drop in 90 seconds. :)

Well, I need a new (large) satellite dish because right now I only have
2 channels that have nothing on them and are only good for testing and
developing with.

Right now I'm more interested in Freevo's native DVB support rather than
using VDR but will probably still play with that since I have friends
involved with VDR too.

At the moment analog cable is my main source of tv, which I'm actually
not watching a lot of lately.  Well, not if you don't count martial arts
events anyways. :)

Ditto (you need to disable lirc in vdr), but as I said above, the
plugin has been hacked a little by me.  So feel free to ask questions
about its specifics and I'll see if I can help.

On the topic of disable lirc support, not sure if this is a compile or
command line option.

Rob, I'd love to know how you are watching dvb tv now?  How you are
recording dvb now?  And if dvb is your main source of tv?

Mike.

When I was using VDR through Freevo I had lirc+remote turned off
completely in VDR, letting Freevo and/or df_xine handle the controll.
If you're using SVDRP Freevo will send the events to VDR that way or
else df_xine will do it through its VDR plugin.

Hi Mike,

so far I just have the main menu entry in Freevo-1.5.4 but entering it
crashes (not the whole app though). I managed to get df_xine working for
DVDs last night, and VDR + vdr-xine viewed in df_xine also works, but my
problem is LIRC I think, because both VDR and Freevo are configured for
LIRC, I don't know, will freevo ignore LIRC events as long as the VDR
plugin is active, or does it have to send commands to VDR via xine keys?
How would I setup those with df_xine, provided I launch the vdr-xine
plugin with the "-r" parameter and compiled xine-lib with all necessary
patches? I't a X-less machine, and even on another desktop machine where
I compiled the same xine-lib version, and on that machine, xine-ui too,
but even there I cn't setup those key bindings in the xine-ui setup
dialog, I don't see anything related to VDR keys there...
So, any further hints are welcome :-)

Lucian

Hello Mick,

I'd also want to give it a try. Do you mean Ove Risberg's vdr-xine-0.2
plugin? I have a Matrox G400 DH and Freevo-1.5.3 configured with
DirectFB (over SDL) and the only option for me to integrate VDR would be
 df_xine (I couldn't get the newly patched fbxine to work on my TV-out).
Do you happen to use it the same way? Would a recent vdr-1.3.32 or even
the last version, 1.3.33, work too? Same with vdr-xine-0.7.6?

Regards,
Lucian
