Trouble with DVB-T2 on frontend 1
by Marko Mäkelä 03 Jan '22

03 Jan '22

Hi all, I recently got a USB adapter "Astrometa DVB-T2" that I would like to use with VDR. It comprises two frontends: /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0: Realtek RTL2832 (DVB-T) /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend1: Panasonic MN88473 (DVB-T2 and DVB-C) I guess it is similar to this one; just a slightly different plastic case with some more ventilation holes: http://blog.palosaari.fi/2014/09/naked-hardware-18-astrometa-amdvb-t2-v2.ht… The hardware appears to work fine, once I copied the /lib/firmware/… [View More]

VDR ISDB-T support

As I'm really interested in using VDR, I was digging inside the code and found a partial solution for this problem: as ISDBT is the same as DVBT, I've changed the way delivery system is queried. My changes are applied in a cloned repo at … [View More]

VDR locking up
by VDR User 29 Dec '17

29 Dec '17

Occasionally my signal drops out (haven't looked into it yet), and it causes VDR to completely freeze and become defunct/zombie. That locks up the drivers and the only way to resolve it is by rebooting. No core file gets created. Does anyone know how to prevent the lock-up in the first place? Could it be some kind of leak from the looping (see log clip below)? Here's a clip of the log when it happens. You can see how the log gets filled with the same repeating lines until it crashes. 2016.Oct.… [View More]28|12:08:55 video: slow down video, duping frame 2016.Oct.28|12:08:55 video: decoder buffer

Watching VDR recordings and live TV on mobile
by Teemu Suikki 19 Nov '17

19 Nov '17

Hi, I have been investigating methods to view VDR recordings and live TV when traveling, with an Android phone and possible Chromecast. Here's some pros can cons of the different methods I have tried: VDR Manager plugin + android app: https://projects.vdr-developer.org/projects/vdr-manager/wiki + Very clean app, great recordings and channel listings, easy to use. + Can also edit timers, use as remote control for VDR + DVB Subtitles work in both live and recordings! - Recordings can'… [View More]
