Re: [vdr] new support
hello rob thanks for the info i will be trying this today so ill email back later on how it works out... as far as the bandwidth i have 100 now can move to 1000 just have to put the switch in but never noticed if there was a slow down as ive not had this up and running full time yet... abbe On 1/22/10, Rob Davis r...@davis-family.info wrote: abbe normal ha scritto: rob yes they do have there own channel scanner built into there software and it produces a simple layout of info... i will attach a txt file of that output... so you can have a look at it... thanks guys for all the input think this will work and be smooth working with all your help and input... What do you use to stream it to mplayer or vlc? Looks like the channel scanner has done the right thing. You can check what channels you should get using the hdhomerun website..

Is there enough bandwidth to stream an HD mpeg2 stream on your network? I had trouble on mine when I used vdr-sxfe on a seperate box to the server.

Once you've done that I'll knock you up a quick iptv script.. You really should consider write a new plugin (i.e. based on the iptv plugin) for it instead of hacking the iptv plugin. This would enable integrated channel scanner, dynamically assigned tuners, more robust zapping, ...

The only requirement from core VDR would be the pluginparam patch (or similar) functionality. My thoughts exactly. I am pretty sure this would work as is with vdr-iptv. I had a quick look at some of the US versions and it looks interesting. I got vdr-iptv working with an external cable box and a pvr card, so using a script we could send off whatever card was necessary to change channels and bring in the input. The downside would probably be a long channel change time. More native support could be good.. However, I wonder what the advantage would be to having this over an internal pci dvb card or even a usb one? The pci card is surely cheaper, and the functionality is already there in VDR? ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

It may be useful in a multi-client setup, where each client have no storage nor DVB device, and the storage is a simple NFS server (tiny NAS server with USB disks). Different kind of setup than the usual server using storage and DVB devices, to which diskless/deviceless clients connect. -- NH ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
