Re: [vdr] VDR 1.7.x, FUPPES and an xbox 360 client
Hi martinez, actually, this feature is about to come. Essentially, it was planned to map channels from different sources - i.e. cable, sat or terrestrial - to a single item. This cannot be done automatically or if so, only by reading the channel names. Because DLNA requires media servers to support at least MPEG-TS and MPEG-PS, minidlna should support TS-streaming. Was it working with LiveTV and the plugin on your XBox? This would be good to know for me.

Re: [vdr] VDR 1.7.x, FUPPES and an xbox 360 client
En/na martinez ha escrit: b) My channels.conf has over 1000 channels, neatly divided in groups. The vdr-upnp documentation states you can exclude certain channels from the plugin, but this could take for ages I tried the vdr-upnp plugin yesterday and it actually takes ages. With ~5000 channels (mostly junk but I never have time to clean them) it takes ~20 minutes at each startup. Even with a reduced channels.conf (100 channels) it takes too long for vdr to actually produce an image.

Re: [vdr] VDR 1.7.x, FUPPES and an xbox 360 client
I hardly believe that XBox 360 understand anything else than their own microsoft specific profiles. Most DLNA servers which are XBox compliant (not vice versa as it's a microsoft product) transcode their contents to deliver it to the XBox. Try it with another MPEG-TS in Fuppes. If it works, it will probably work with VDR files and the UPnP-Plugin as well. However, as far as I know, XBox only supports WMA, WMV-9, maybe WMV-10 (a.k.a VC-1), in your case DivX, and MP4, but no MPEG-TS. I found some information on the fuppes wiki: http://bit.ly/dmWyYQ You may transcode them to H.264 m...@3.1, which should run almost in realtime without major loss of quality. Transcoding always consumes lot of CPU power, so another solution might be better - another firmware or device?! Cheers, Denis Theunis Potgieter schrieb: Can't help you on fuppes.
