[vdr] [PATCH] S2API for vdr-1.7.0 (04-10-2008 - quickhack for DVB-S(2), DVB-T and DVB-C)

2008-10-04 Thread Niels Wagenaar
Hello All,

Today I finished the patch for DVB-S, DVB-S2, DVB-T and DVB-C support using 
S2API in combination with VDR 1.7.0. I've tested my code on DVB-S, DVB-S2 and 
DVB-T transports and they were all successful. DVB-C is untested (don't have a 
DVB-C option where I live) but it should work in *THEORY* ;)

DVB-S and DVB-S2 were tested on a Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-HD-S2 card. DVB-T was 
tested on a Gigabyte GT-U7000-RH USB device. I used the latest v4l pull and 
viewing was very stable with both DVB devices. I also didn't had any problems 
any more when switching between DVB-S(2) and DVB-T, but it can be that this 
patch will *NOT* work correctly on MFE DVB devices like the HVR-3000 or 
HVR-4000 (I had to do some hacking because strangely, DVB-T transports were 
offered to my DVB-S DVB device). Since I can't test this, I hope others can 
tell me if it works or not.

Enclosed are two patches. The clean patch is for a clean VDR 1.7.0 source tree 
patched with Reinhard's 
vdr-1.7.0-h264-syncearly-framespersec-audioindexer-fielddetection-speedup.diff.bz2
 patch. The patched patch is for those who have used Edgar (gimli) Hucek's 
patch for VDR 1.7.0. In theory it should also work with my last send patch.

The patch itself is still based upon Igor M. Liplianin's S2API patch. Many 
thanks to Igor, Darron Broad and Edgar (gimli) Hucek for the help and 
suggestions with the previous and current patch. Again, any feedback on this 
patch is highly appreciated!

Regards,

Niels Wagenaar

Great work,

attached you find two patches, the one against 1.7.1 + extensions 64 patch
and the tuning fix patch.
The situation with the tunig fix is funny. Yesterday in Steve Toth's hg
repository there where the patches from http://dev.kewl.org/v4l-dvb/patches/
included. Today they seems to be gone. With the the patches applyed the
tuning with the S2API patch was broken. For the moment i let the tuning
fix patch in.

Re: [vdr] softdevice configure error

2008-10-04 Thread Stefan Lucke
Zitat von ShorTie:

 Trying to rebuild my gentoo system using the latest DirectFB, DFB++ and
 ffmpeg.

 Everytime I try to ./configure softdevice.cvs I get



 BudgetVDR softdevice.cvs # ./configure --disable-vidix --disable-xv
 --with-ffmpeg-path /usr/local/src/ffmpeg

 ffmpeg path set to: /usr/local/src/ffmpeg

 Testing system and cpu type... found Linux on i386 cpu.

 Checking for pkg-config... Found.

 Checking for ffmpeg... ./configure: line 213: ffmpeg_cflags: unbound
 variable




 Sortta seems like it's not finding ffmpeg to me, but have no clue what to
 do.

 Any help would be nice

- You could install your ffmpeg libs. By default ffmpeg's libs and
  include files will be installed in /usr/local . With this install
  target, we would usually find ffmpeg.
- The configure script has to be changed in case of --with-ffmpeg-path PATH
  is specified. Test for test_ffmpeg_local line 236 should be protected by:
  'if test ${ffmpeg_use_path} = no ; then' after line 235 and
  closing 'fi' should be after line 239 of current cvs.

[vdr] [ANNOUNCE] pvr350-2008-09-07

2008-10-04 Thread Martin Dauskardt
Today I announced this version in the german vdrportal forum.  The last time I 
announced a new pvr350 plugin-version here in the ML was June 2007. So it is 
time to write here again to keep the non-german-speaking users informed.

The pvr350-plugin implements an output device for the PVR350 TV out, using the 
hardware mpeg2 decoder.

http://drseltsam.device.name/vdr/pvr/src/pvr350/vdr-pvr350-2008-09-07.tgz

Look into the HISTORY for the many changes since June 2007.

Attention: The plugin does not work properly with vdr 1.7.1: 
vdr now simply strips the TS headers and sends the payload to the usual 
PlayVideo() and PlayAudio() functions. The PES packets have no longer a size 
of 2kB, and the PES audio ID is always 0. The pvr350 hardware decoder and/or 
the ivtv driver cannot handle this. We would need a lot of additional code - 
time will see ...

Note:
For watching analogue TV from the tuner of the PVR350 you need a second plugin 
as input device. This is pvrinput, and as there is also a new version, I will 
announce it in a separate mail.

Re: [vdr] softdevice configure error

2008-10-04 Thread ShorTie
These are the cvs/svn versions of DirectFB and ffmpeg.
And yes I did do a 'make install' after compiling each.

Tried 
./configure --disable-vidix --disable-xv --with-ffmpeg-path /usr/local
As well as 
./configure --disable-vidix --disable-xv --with-ffmpeg-path /usr
Both with the same error.

As far as the second hafe of your reply, I have no idea what you are talking
about .. :(~. If I need to change something in the ./configure script please
be more specific.

Thankz for your help

[vdr] [ANNOUNCE] pvrinput-2008-10-04

2008-10-04 Thread Martin Dauskardt
The pvrinput plugin uses a Hauppauge PVR card as an input device. All cards
supported by the ivtv or pvrusb2 driver should work. (Tested with PVR150, 
PVR250, PVR350, PVR500, PVRUSB2).

Winfried Koehler and I work on this plugin since the original maintainer 
stopped development in 2006. As far as I remember, our new versions were 
always only announced in the german vdrportal forum. So we think it is time 
to keep the non-german-speaking vdr users informed.

Look into the HISTORY for changes and into the README for further details.

Re: [vdr] Converting HD recording

2008-10-04 Thread Goga777
I asked in other way 

is there any fast method (without demux)  for converting the h264 pes records 
from vdr to any other containers - ts, avi ?

 I use the solution here :
 
 http://www.vdrportal.de/board/thread.php?threadid=73791
 
 You can use mpeg_ps_extract to transform the vdr file in separate file .264
 plus several audio file
 When extracted, any soft like mencoder can convert them
 
 Best regards

[vdr] [ANNOUNCE] vdr-osdserver 0.1.2

2008-10-04 Thread Udo Richter
Hi,

I've published version 0.1.2 of the OSDServer plugin.

The new version fixes a bug on VDR 1.5.11+ on text edit items.

The new version also adds a new Perl binding module that encapsulates 
the OSDServer network protocol within Perl objects. By using the Perl 
module, OSDServer is a lot easier to use.

The new Perl module is experimental, so keep an eye on 
http://www.vdr-portal.de/board/thread.php?threadid=80800 , the first 
patch just took 25 minutes to be necessary. The thread also has some 
samples on how the module can be used.


Feedback on problems and improvement suggestions are of course welcome.

Download:

Cheers,

Udo

if you ask that way - imho  - NO
demuxing is the minimum when comming from pes and want to convert to ts
remuxing is a very fast process compared with reencoding the whole thing
i produced a avchd (bluray structure on dvd) with HDvdrpes_to_mkv and a
windows toolset (tsMuxerGUI), only thing is the duallayer limit of the dvd

depending of slim it down a bit, pes has a (small) overhead compared
with ts but its not that much to call it slim
realy sliming it would mean removing information
reencoding with lower bitrate or reduced resolution (can be difficult
because 1080i - 720p is not much smaller and there ist no 720i
there is not much room to make it smaller (and keeping the quality) and
who wants to convert to 576/480 i/p format?

even if vdr records in ts, to get a avchd or bluray disk you will have
to remux the recording

 
 I use the solution here :

What i noticed is that if i revert the file xine_input_vdr.c as i wrote
before i can't see any xvdr icon in Xine.

I'm running VDR with this option:
