[vdr] xine dropped frames warning
Hello, I lauch xine with this line: xine --no-gui --no-logo --no-splash -pq -A alsa -f -V xxmc --post vdr --post vdr_video --post tvtime:method=Greedy2Frame,enabled=1,pulldown=vektor,framerate_mode=full,judder_correction=0,use_progressive_frame_flag=0,chroma_filter=0,cheap_mode=0 --config=/home/config vdr://tmp/vdr-xine/stream#demux:mpeg_pes This works well but ocassionally the system is busy and I get a warning that too many frames have been dropped In my /home/config file I have: engine.performance.warn_discarded_threshold:99 engine.performance.warn_skipped_threshold:99 Is there some way I can make sure I get no such warnings? The PC has only a remote control, no mouse so it is a real problem to get these warnings I wouldn´t mind to recompile the source code if somebody could point out a patch to remove the xine´s code for the warning boxes ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
[vdr] xine dropped frames warning
I have added gui.dropped_frames_warning:0 but still if the system gets stressed I get a warning box Some xine dev knows by any chance how to remove xine´s ability to display warning boxes or to make them of size 0x0 pixels ?

I assume you did not unload xine before editing the config file. The file can not be edited while xine is running. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
Re: [vdr] xine dropped frames warning
You assumed incorrectly. I killed xine and edited the file while xine was not running. in fact the line gui.dropped_frames_warning:0 is now permanently in the config file but still I get the notifications (or at least some of them) Nobody reading these lines knows what part of xine´s source code do I need to murder to get rid of the notifications once and for all ? wrote: > > I have added > > > > > > gui.dropped_frames_warning:0 > > > > but still if the system gets stressed I get a warning box > > > > Some xine dev knows by any chance how to remove xine?s ability to > > display warning boxes or to make them of size 0x0 pixels ?

There's only one popup informing you of dropped frames. If you've correctly disabled it then you won't get those popups. You don't/shouldn't have to edit the source code! If you're complaining about other popups then I don't know. Ever since adding "gui.dropped_frames_warning:0", I have not gotten a dropped frame popup. ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
Re: [vdr] xine dropped frames warning
With gui.dropped_frames_warning:0 in the config file (which was added while xine was not running) I still get a popup if I use the OSD for a minute or so See screenshot: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9975371/IMG_2022_124523.jpg So since the line does not truly disable warnings for me, my question still remains valid. Is there a different line I need to put in the config file or else how can I mod the source code to make the warnings invisible? ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
Re: [vdr] xine dropped frames warning
Are you certain it's the correct xine config file?

The command works as expected so the only possible explanation is user
error. So either xine was running when you edited the config file, or
you didn't edit the right one as Torgeir Veimo suggested. You have to
edit the config file for whichever user has started xine. If you
started xine as root then edit /root/.xine/config, if you started it
as user timmy then /home/timmy/.xine/config, etc.. There is one more
option also.. You can use the -c command line switch to force xine to
use a certain config file:
xine -c /path/to/good/xine.config
Then you can verify the config contains the correct setting with:
[[ $(grep "^gui.dropped_frames_warning:0" /path/to/good/xine.config)
]] && echo "config is good :)" || echo "config is bad :("

Re: [vdr] xine dropped frames warning
I am using the right config and the warnings still show.
Lets prove it...
ps -ef |grep xine
xine --no-gui --no-logo --no-splash -pq -A alsa -f -V xxmc --post vdr
--post vdr_video --post
tvtime:method=LinearBlend,cheap_mode=1,pulldown=0,use_progressive_frame_flag=1
--config=/home/tv/.xine/config vdr://tmp/vdr-xine/stream#demux:mpeg_pes
So that´s my xine running and shows it is using for config
/home/tv/.xine/config
Now I run the grep command on it:
grep "^gui.dropped_frames_warning:0" /home/tv/.xine/config && echo
"config is good :)" || echo "config is bad :("
And the result is:
gui.dropped_frames_warning:0
config is good :)
Yet if I open vdr´s OSD and fiddle with it for a minute or so I am
guaranteed to get the dropped frames warning.
cxfe does not have the warning problem but unfortunately it does not
support xxmc acceleration :(

Re: [vdr] xine dropped frames warning
Hi,
I find this all puzzling too. I've been in similar situations and welcomed
suggestions. Here is one of mine.
Try changing your xine command line by replacing the '=' following --config
with a space.
Showing the commandline is not the same as the app parsing the parameter. Xine
may be clever in this respect in which case this will make no difference.
Ian.

Re: [vdr] xine dropped frames warning
I have replaced the ´=´ for a space as shown by
ps -ef |grep xine
xine --no-gui --no-logo --no-splash -pq -A alsa -f -V xxmc --post vdr
--post vdr_video --post
tvtime:method=LinearBlend,cheap_mode=1,pulldown=0,use_progressive_frame_flag=1
--config /home/tv/.xine/config vdr://tmp/vdr-xine/stream#demux:mpeg_pes
but the annoying dropped frames warning remains
any other ideas?

Re: [vdr] xine dropped frames warning
Finally, I´ve edited /xine-ui/src/xitk/errors.c
the last function:
I left it like this:
void too_slow_window(void) {
return;
}
Now no more dropped frames warning boxes :-)
