Re: [vdr] Replay Problems with Extension HD
Didn't realize that there was such a database of users available. I'm pretty sure that _many_ of the VDR users are not aware of this thus statistics are probably not very accurate. Klaus should advertise this once in a while ;-) Perhaps VDR should try to send UDP packet to Klaus's server when it starts. Not all will not like it, but it is same for me. Windows software do this constantly under name for automatically check for program updates.

[vdr] known user base (was: Re: Replay Problems with Extension HD)
I don't think people would like that. DRBD has imho a good approach* to track users (and used versions!), but regardless of the method, this is certainly not on Klaus' priority list. Best regards, Christian (#68) *On first startup (or after upgrades) a unique ID will generated and the user will be asked if he wants to send this ID together with the current version to the maintainer. Optionally (to appear on a list just like vdr's user list) personal data may be entered, but this is up to the user. Pressing enter will just send the unique ID and version, aborting the prompt will not send anything. jori.hamalai...@teliasonera.com wrote: Perhaps VDR should try to send UDP packet to Klaus's server when it starts.

User-tracking has _absolutely no place_ in VDR what-so-ever!! It serves no purpose and if someone wants to be added to a user list somewhere, they can register themselves. If someone really thinks this is a brilliant idea, they can write a plugin to do it but it should have no chance becoming a part of VDR core. No offense but that's the worst idea I've heard by far. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

I've heard there are some buggy intel-DDXes floating around. I don't know which one you use. A possible workaround is do add SubSection Display Virtual3200 1200 EndSubSection to the Screen section. Attached is a further 'xorg.conf' with the workaround included. Please give it a try. I added this section but it didn't make any difference. I have now fixed it though by adding a new monitor for VGA-1 and setting Ignore to true in xorg.conf.
