Hi, does that really work, or am I misunderstanding a quad-LNB? I though the 
the 4 outputs of a quad LNB are
hi/V lo/V hi/H and Lo/H. Or is that a quattro LNB?
So what you are saying is that a quad LNB can supply any of the 4 
freqs/polarization down any of its 4 connections?
Any if required the same signal down all 4 connections?

This solution is certainly a lot cheaper because otherwise he would need 12 
input lines, so the spaun would not have
worked as it only had 8 Sat input lines. So he would have needed a more 
expensive model.

 I had a 1.5.13 running for a while on a nexus FF.

 I did install a second card, S2-3200, together with the multiproto driver
 and vdr 1.7.0, without patches at this moment, because I am not interested
 in HD at this time. I am just looking to have 2 cards working to be able
 to stream on several vdr clients and use the output of my FF card. The S2
 card is on astra, and the FF on hotbird

 I started with a  clean  vdrconf directory, and with a channel.conf with
 only 1 entry (TV5) on hotbird. I hoped that vdr would scan new channels,
 but it did only for a few.

 After starting the first time, it scanned about 10 new channels and stops
 there. In the DVB menu, update stands on  add new transponder 

 I did try with an other channel.conf. I can see every FTA channel on
 hotbird, but I have a black screen on astra (nothing as  channel not
 available ).

 The log does nt learn me something either. In fact the log is flooded by
 kernel messages about stb6100 that get_frequence and bandwith. The
 frequence are always the same.
 -why is the  autoscan  not working ? Do I need some  transponder file  ?

 -how can I check the signal on my S2-3200 card ?

 -how can I reduce the logs from stb6100 ?

 -do I need to apply a concurrent recording patch to be able to stream 2 or
 more signals ?

 thanks for your help

 Errm,
 you say you have two FF-Cards, one connected to an LNB poniting hotbird
 and one connected to another LNB pointing to Astra?
 AFAIk this will NOT work.
 if vdr has 2 cards, it only uses the second card to do channel-scan, 
 but why vdr chose the second card, not the first one ?
 and this vdr's behaviour only for scan ? 

 Igor
 
 Hrm,
 i could say RTFM, but that would be a little rude ;-)
 so lets explain it in short:
 per design vdr reserves the first card in system for life viewing and does 
 not use it for other
 so called idle tasks like epg-scann or transponder-scann if there is a 
 second card in the system.
 thats by design, and it is written down the documentation.
 
 And when it comes to viewing a transponder, vdr uses the first card to get 
 the signal if that tuner
 is available.
 so in your configuration you will only be able to watch the channels on 
 hotbird, but you only can 
 scan on astra with plain vdr
 Nice situation... ;-)

 The WINDOW data structure is provided by ncurses library. You may need a 
 different/newer version of libncurses-dev. (imho one of the 'wide

The solution was quite simple: The suse tutorials on the vdr wiki didn't 
say which dependencies you needed, like the libn5curses (or something 
like it)
Afterwards I had the same problem with some other plugins, but since 
they were in the repository I could do a  apt-get build-dep 
vdr-plugins-burn and most of the time that would have fixed it.


However, sometimes I needed to sift through the error messages and find 
the correct packages in synaptic.

Should work, because twin or quad or octal lnbs actually have
multiple tuners inside the lnb.
Typically twin, quad or octal lnbs are used when there are
several settopboxes in the house.

Re: [vdr] reelchannelscan 0.6.1 patch for vdr-1.7.0 + h264

2008-05-22 Thread NONAS EUAGGELOS
Yes, you can use it without a reelbox, it is GPL.
However when I created the patch last night, I put the source and destination 
directories in the wrong order, so the patch will not apply correctly (I was 
too sleepy!!!). Anyway, I'll fix it this evening when I get to my machine and 
post it again.

I would like to mention that for the time being the scanner won't pick up 
DVB-S2 channels. 
Anyone knows why?

 I have a diseqc 2.0 switch, but since the S2-3200 card only supports 
 Diseqc 1.2 I'm not really sure what to use!
 It's a regular 4x1 switch
   
Apparantly a regular 4x1 switch doesn't need the F0 - F1 bits at the 
end, and this will do.
As I see it, the first hex-code is used for the option and the second 
hex-code is used for the position. (A/A-A/B-B/A-B/B)

22 Position A
23 Option A
26 Position B
27 Option B

# port 1 option a position a
# port 2 option a position b
# port 3 option b position a
# port 4 option b position b

So in your setup I assume that you have ports and LNBs like this:

1 - S19.2E
2 - S28.2E
3 - S23.5E
4 - S13.0E

This diseqc.conf should do the trick:

Hello List,

I can't play back my own created dvd's since I am using the latest test
firmware for my ff dvb-s card.
Dvd playback starts and after some minutes it in not in sync and audio
stutters.

Playing the same dvd with mplayer over dvb output works fine but the
dvd plugin has more features so I want to use it.
E. G. Mplayer can't play ac3 over dvb.
Is there a chance to get this work?
__Please__ help.

 on my e-tobi based 1.6 setup, the CAM menu umlauts are broken, while all
 the other menu items (that I checked so far) use the correct encoding.

 Is there a recoding missing between the CAM and the vdr OSD?
 What LANG environment are u using? Please look at your /etc/defaults/vdr 
 file.
 VDR_LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
 VDR_CHARSET_OVERRIDE=ISO-8859-1

 On my e-tobi based install, my cam don't have problems with de_DE.UTF-8
 My setup (running on Ubuntu) shows broken Umlauts in the cam menu.
 
 Here's a screenshot of the effect.
 ...

Please try the following (untested) version of this function in ci.c:


static char *CopyString(int Length, const uint8_t *Data)
/// Copies the string at Data.
/// \return Returns a pointer to a newly allocated string.
{
   // Some CAMs send funny characters at the beginning of strings.
   // Let's just skip them:
   while (Length  0  (*Data == ' ' || *Data == 0x05 || *Data == 0x96 || 
*Data == 0x97)) {
 Length--;
 Data++;
 }
   char s[Length + 1];
   strncpy(s, (char *)Data, Length);
   s[Length] = 0;
   // The character 0x8A is used as newline, so let's put a real '\n' in there:
   strreplace(s, 0x8A, '\n');
   cCharSetConv csc(ISO-8859-1);
   return strdup(csc.Convert(s));
}


This should convert the CAM's strings to whatever encoding VDR uses.

Maybe the 0x05 that some CAMs put at the beginning of strings is a
character encoding indicator, just as with the SI strings (see libsi/si.c,
CharacterTables1[]). However, I don't think I've seen that anywhere in the
CI specs of the DVB standard. Maybe somebody can point out where this
might be documented.

Please report whether this fixes the problem for you.

 Hi, does that really work, or am I misunderstanding a quad-LNB? I though the 
 the 4 outputs of a quad LNB are
 hi/V lo/V hi/H and Lo/H. Or is that a quattro LNB?
 So what you are saying is that a quad LNB can supply any of the 4 
 freqs/polarization down any of its 4 connections?
 Any if required the same signal down all 4 connections?
 
 This solution is certainly a lot cheaper because otherwise he would need 12 
 input lines, so the spaun would not have
 worked as it only had 8 Sat input lines. So he would have needed a more 
 expensive model.

 Errm,
 you say you have two FF-Cards, one connected to an LNB poniting hotbird
 and one connected to another LNB pointing to Astra?
 AFAIk this will NOT work.
 if vdr has 2 cards, it only uses the second card to do channel-scan, 
 but why vdr chose the second card, not the first one ?
 and this vdr's behaviour only for scan ? 

 Igor
 Hrm,
 i could say RTFM, but that would be a little rude ;-)
 so lets explain it in short:
 per design vdr reserves the first card in system for life viewing and does 
 not use it for other
 so called idle tasks like epg-scann or transponder-scann if there is a 
 second card in the system.
 thats by design, and it is written down the documentation.

 And when it comes to viewing a transponder, vdr uses the first card to get 
 the signal if that tuner
 is available.
 so in your configuration you will only be able to watch the channels on 
 hotbird, but you only can 
 scan on astra with plain vdr
 Nice situation... ;-)

 Good God NO, just a simple 4 input diseqc-switch, one for
 each card, price something like 10-30€ each

 
 Well, he didn't ask for the cheapest solution, he only asked how it
 could be done ;)
 
 By the way, the multiple diseqc switch is ok if the
 number of dvb terminals is less than 4, for 4 terminal or more the
 multiswitch solution (it hasn't to be spaun) becomes quickly more
 convenient in terms of complexity and, eventually, costs
 
 If you also need to mix terrestrial signal to the lot, then it
 becomes even more desirable.
 
 ... but we are digressing :)

if he has never heard of diseqc maybe some basics would be good


http://www.spaun.de/files/8df79_en_DiSEqC_for_Technicians.pdf
http://www.spaun.de/?lang=enmodul=adigs

with diseqc you can address a single lnb among a limited number of lnb´s
from the electrical point there are two ways
lets say 2 sat´s and 4 receivers

1. using a lnb with 4 equivalent outputs for every satelite (you could
connect a receiver to those outputs and will get all four options high,
low, horizontal, vertical on every output, the receiver switches the to
its 4 options, same es having 4 single lnb´s) so you would need 4 single
passive diseqc switches, one for every receiver
shown here: http://www.spaun.de/files/ba406_de_ske11s133.pdf

2. using lnb´s with 4 different outputs (each for h, l, hor., ver., if
you connect a receiver you will only have one option at every connector,
thats the difference between quad and quattro lnb´s)
2 of those with a multiswitch (input for every option for every sat) you
can multiplie all 8 signals (the lnb´s don't have to be switched with
voltage or tone to a option) and deliver on the 4 receiver outputs whats
needed - this installation alway needs external power from 110/220V,
usually used for 4 or more receivers

in the situation with 4 sat´s and 2-4 receivers the scenario 1. will
usually cheaper

[vdr] no channel update on vdr 1.7.0

2008-05-22 Thread spe
Thanks for all the answers regarding my questions.

So far I can understand my hardware is not adapted to what I want to do.
I will proceed to the following :

- Install 2 twin lnb's
- Install 2 disecq switches.
- Is diseqc switch 1 ok ? or do i need diseqc 2.0

As explain I have 1 FF card and one S2-3200. On one of my dishes I also
have a rotor.

- Can I still use it ? Is there already a valid rotor plugin for 1.7.0 ?

My target is to achieve to be able to look on one TV on the output of the
FF card, and on a other TV on a other broadcasting on a vdr-to-vdr client.
I assume thats possible with that configuration ?

Can I record a third broadcasting ? (concurrent recording)
Can I look at a third broadcasting on a second vdr-to-vdr or http client ?

Even if I don't need HD, do I need to use 1.7.0 version with my S2-3200 ?

thanks,

In the end, if you dont use the LNB Sharing patch (I think it was), the
solution from the VDR point of view is very simple. I hope I get this correct.

To watch or record 2 programs, on two different transponders, you need two 
tuners and therefore 2 input lines.
Same for 3,4,5 and 6 programs etc. etc.

You just need to ensure, outside of VDR, that each line (coax) going to VDR can
transport every transponder, and that at the same time.

If, two or more programs are on the same transponder, then a single tuner can 
see them all.

I think a FF card can process 3 streams on the same transponder without 
problems.
I don't know if process differentiates between live-viewing and recording a 
program.
I think the nettlebock (bottleneck) is on the PCI bus.

Third broadcasting will therefore depend on whether that channel is on one of 
the transponders
you are already tuned to with your two cards.

Will the TS mods that Klaus is currently working on mean that the full stream of
the transponder can be recorded? Or will the HW full-TS mod still be needed?

Cheers Brian

Re: [vdr] reelchannelscan 0.6.1 patch for vdr-1.7.0 + h264

2008-05-22 Thread Vangelis Nonas
Hello,

My patch does not change anything in vdr.

I have tested it on my machine. Here I have vanilla vdr 1.7.0 with the 
h264 patch. Try applying this patch to your vdr and post back.

Maybe this is the problem.

Try make clean;make clean-plugins;make;make plugins.

To apply the h264 patch :

wget 
http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/vdr/attachments/20080413/1054bcfb/attachment-0001.bin
mv attachment-0001.bin 
vdr-1.7.0-h264-syncearly-framespersec-audioindexer-fielddetection-speedup.diff.bz2
bunzip2 
vdr-1.7.0-h264-syncearly-framespersec-audioindexer-fielddetection-speedup.diff.bz2

and then patch -p1 inside your vdr directory.

 This is the correct patch for reelchannelscan 0.6.1 with vdr 1.7.0
 Reelchannelscan can be found at:

 svn co svn://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/testing/src/vdr-plugins/src/

 If you decide to try it out, please post your comments.

Re: [vdr] no channel update on vdr 1.7.0

 Will the TS mods that Klaus is currently working on mean that the full stream 
 of
 the transponder can be recorded? Or will the HW full-TS mod still be needed?

The PES to TS switch will only change the way VDR records broadcasts
and performs live viewing. There will be no more TS to PES conversion.
VDR will still record separate programmes, though. It won't record the
entire TS.

[vdr] DVB API Wrapper for VDR 1.7.0

2008-05-22 Thread Udo Richter
Hi list,


There's a new version of the DVB API wrapper patch. The new version is 
compatible to the current multiproto drivers, and wraps the 
DVBFE_SET_DELSYS call.

The new version is based on the vdr-1.7.0-multiproto-update.diff, and 
probably works also with the vdr-1.7.0-h264-diff.bz2 patch, both 
from Reinhard Nissl. Chances are good that the patch will work with next 
VDR-1.7.1 too.

The new version also introduces a new runtime detection feature: By 
default, builds will detect at runtime whether the driver supports 
multiproto, and will either use native multiproto drivers or the old API 
wrapper.

Behavior can be configured in Make.config:

DEFINES += -DDVB_MULTIPROTO_RUNTIME=1
   enables the runtime detection (default)

DEFINES += -DDVB_MULTIPROTO_RUNTIME=0
   disables the runtime detection

DEFINES += -DDVB_MULTIPROTO_WRAPPER=1
   enables the API wrapper (default on old DVB headers
   and if runtime detection is enabled)

DEFINES += -DDVB_MULTIPROTO_WRAPPER=0
   disables wrapper and runtime detection. Can be used
   to compile multiproto without proper DVB headers.
   (default on new DVB headers and runtime detection disabled)


Much of it is not completely tested, so reports are welcome.

Get it:
http://www.udo-richter.de/vdr/patches.en.html#dvb-api-wrapper
http://www.udo-richter.de/vdr/patches.html#dvb-api-wrapper


Cheers,

Udo

I have done all that already :-)

I should look at reelchannelscan (or just forget it until I have more
free time).

Thanks.
