Re: [vdr] Request: E parameter in channels.conf for epg scan
Hi, I don't see the advantage of implementing this directly into the VDR. I do and would love to see this feature. My cable TV provider offers several regional variations of the same TV channel (*). They will show the same shows most of the time and differ only for a regional broadcast once or twice a day. Using epgsearch, I will get the same movie several times on these channels, with WDR being the worst example. However, I do not want to remove the variations from my channel list, since there are (rare) occasions when I do want to record a regional broadcast.

Hi, Read: http://www.vdr-portal.de/board/archive/75121/thread.html where the guy complains about not having the wakeup file That thread is two years old. or please post your own script (or the link) especially the part that writes the WAKEUP_FILE=/var/cache/vdr/acpiwakeup.time. This is done in /usr/share/vdr/shutdown-hooks/S90.acpiwakeup, which is called by vdr upon exiting. Readding the scripts I do not know what part of the software is going to write /var/cache/vdr/acpiwakeup.time and also I shall manually set wake up time in the config file. What I would like is using the stored planned recording information to automatically deduce the next wakeup time. Please read the section automatic shutdown from vdr's source here: http://git.gekrumbel.de/vdr.git?p=vdr.git;a=blob_plain;f=INSTALL;hb=HEAD This will explain how Tobi's script learns the parameters.

[vdr] How to debug skips async with vdr?
Hi, since upgrading to the most recent Ubuntu release 8.10 (Intrepid), my FF card is having problems. It is async with audio, both for some live TV channels and some recordings. It is also skipping while watching live TV. (This is not a full diagnosis, but the skipping appears to be limited to encrypted channels.) [1] vdr didn't show this behaviour with the previous setup (based on Hardy with default Ubuntu kernel). However, the logs show nothing. Nothing at all. So how can I debug this if the system thinks that everything is fine? Thanks, Hanno Here's the setup: Athlon X2 CPU vdr 1.6.0-2 e-tobi binary for Ubuntu [2] (e-tobi version number: 1.6.0-8) Budget DVB-C card used as input, with CAM and Kabel Deutschland smartcard, using the driver that comes with Ubuntu's default 2.6.27 kernel FF DVB-C card without CAM, used as input and output, using the ttpci driver that comes with Ubuntu's default 2.6.27 kernel plus the modified firmware from [3] Links are German: [1] http://vdr-portal.de/board/thread.php?threadid=82518 [2] http://www.hanno.de/blog/category/vdr/ [3] http://www.vdr-portal.de/board/thread.php?threadid=59746 ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

Re: [vdr] VDR with S2API (update)
Hi, I'm pretty sure there are quite a few systems out there using FF DVB cards. I wonder why you are constantly arguing against them ;-) I own an FF card for two reasons only: It offers better video quality on a CRT TV and vdr (1.6) prefers it. There are a few things to dislike about FF cards these days. To mention just a few: - expensive - big! (a smaller vdr box would be nice) - problems with QAM 256 - bandwidth problems (see Full TS Mod) Not too long from now, I want to replace the CRT TV and with it, one of my two reasons to use a FF card will be gone. So yeah, it'd be nice to see vdr moving away from FF cards or specialized hardware such as the eHD. A generic (modern) graphics card should be enough and it should be easier to setup for vdr.

Re: [vdr] TV channel logo collection - logo requests and illustrator/freehand help
Hi, That 'non-commercial' restriction pretty much prevents plugins with such logos to be included in Linux distributions though. At least it makes the package non-free. That's fine by me. A non-free collection with permission by the logo owners would be a major improvement over the current logo collection, which isn't just outdated, but also utterly illegal by any standard. However, I experience the drag of discussing this with logo owners right now. The ZDF just declined and the BR (which is a reference client of xeatre.tv, to boot!) is also a tough one so far. And if my collection turns out to be complete, I'll be co-responsible when someone abuses it. Oh, don't we all love legal matters?

Re: [vdr] Anyone having contacts to ZDF? (Re: TV channel logo collection)
Hi, I applaud the effort, and IANAL, but with all due respect, are you certain that the license agreement draft says what you intend? Yes. For example, the non-commercial word is problematic. GPL _allows_ commercial distribution, and removing that possiblity makes your license incompatible with the GPL (which I'm sure you know is VDR's and practically all its plugins' license). http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#NoMilitary I do not intend to have this collection distributed commercially by third parties and I do not intend to reach GPL compatibility with the first batch of logos. Making it available for non-free download is fine by me and better than the current, illegal logo collection many of us use. Anyone wishing to sell software or hardware products using these logos, GPL-ed or not, should ask the logo owners for permission for their respective project. That's not different to the legal situation we already have. Asking the logo owners upfront to give carte blanche for commercial distribution of their logos is far too much to ask for. These people are already weary to permit having their logo displayed in software for personal use, believe me. We may ask for more permissions later, though. I have no problem doing the same round of requests in a year or two, when the collection is complete and when I can show logo owners that it has been a benefit to the community.

[vdr] TV channel logo collection - logo requests and illustrator/freehand help
Hi, the TV channel logo graphics collection installed on my vdr has about 650 logos, many of them out of date, some of them in bad shape. So it might be a good idea to update the collection. Asking my lawyer confirmed that distributing TV channel logo graphics for open source software is problematic: You shouldn't do this unless you have written permission by the logos' owners. Much to my surprise, /if/ you ask them and explain the specific purpose, the logo owners /do/ grant permission to distribute their logo graphics for use in non-commercial open-source software. So far, noone turned down the request and I have collected a critical mass of logos within a few days: http://www.linuxtv.org/vdrwiki/index.php/Logo_Collection I will continue to ask those German TV and radio stations in my channel.conf, but help for other countries would be welcome. Please contact me before you ask your local stations, so that they don't get asked twice. (Oh, and don't bother asking pay TV stations that do not permit pvr use such as German Premiere.) The strategy is to ask for vector graphics logos and for permission to use them in OSD and EPG non-commercial open-source applications. This will make the collection versatile enough to be used beyond vdr, e.g for mythtv etc. However, vector graphics files means Illustrator, Freehand or EPS. What I need is SVG. For many of the files of the collection, Inkscape or pstoedit fail to open them. It'd be nice if a user of illustrator or freehand could help. It shouldn't be more work than simple conversion of files to .svg or to clean .eps every now and then, so that I can edit those files in Inkscape later. (Yes, I know that there are SVG logo files on Wikipedia. However, those logos were drawn and contributed by users and some of them are not true to the original logo.)

Re: [vdr] The issue of orphaned plugins, addons and patches (Re: pvr-input)
Hi, 1) too many vdr-related projects dying or being orphaned when the original author looses interest In most cases, its probably not just loosing interest, but running out of time. Handling a job, a family and a time-consuming hobby all at once is nearly impossible... Yes, but what should happen to those projects? The lcdproc plugin has been orphaned by its original author, but another author has published several patched and greatly improved versions. Yet he doesn't consider himself the new maintainer. So is it abandoned? The analogtv plugin is abandoned, yet it's part of some vdr distributions. Their packagers keep patching it so that it works with vdr 1.6.x. Should it be dropped? 3) too many different locations to find sources and patches For short term patches, if a new VDR version breaks something, forums are a good source for patches. Counterexample: PDAExport is a project that the developer distributes on the German vdr-portal.de forum. There is no homepage and contact address - the readme contains his forum nickname. For more long term patches, the wikis are a good place to look, and they're easy to maintain by everyone. So if you find some useful patch, don't hesitate to add a link to the wiki. Which Wiki? There are several, and the German vdr-wiki.de seems to be more up to date than the English linuxtv.org/vdrwiki http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Plugins http://www.linuxtv.org/vdrwiki/index.php/Plugins So far, there seem to be too many locations to send patches to.

No, I just checked vdr-wiki.de, they have an extensive (but German) list of plugins plus patches and current maintainers. http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/Plugins Which leads to a related topic. It appears that several plugins and addons are orphaned, despite having a lot of users and despite developers still releasing patches. What to do about these packages? There is a lot of work right now for package distributors, each of them maintaining a different set of patches for their respective distribution (analogtv is an example). For some projects, there are patches flying around in this mailing list, on vdr-wiki.de or even in obscure discussion threads on vdr-portal.de. Some patches are published by new developers on their homepages (the pvr-input and lcdproc plugins are examples for this), but if you ask these developers if they want to declare themselves the new maintainer of the plugin/addon, they thankfully decline.
