VDR is busy waiting for the shutdownscript to return, so no new svdr-connection is accepted.

I don't know if this would be helpful, since its quite complex. regards, Friedhelm. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
[vdr] EPG: Events with same on different channels?
Hi everybody. I wonder, if (according to vdr.5) must be uniq among *all* events known to vdr or only among the events of the current channel? Is it valid to have a of 4711 for "ard" and a of 4711 for "zdf"? Or will these both events clash? regards, Friedhelm. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

Re: [vdr] Convert video clip to .vdr format
Hi Dick, i wrote a small shellscript which does the job. It looks, if the original video is a mpg or different and do the right steps to get a vdr-video. You need mencoder and genindex for the script. Let me know, if this works for you, too. regards, Friedhelm.

When i disable the radio-plugin, audio works; when i remove the patch, audio works with the plugin enabled. -> i removed this patch. regards, Friedhelm. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
