I'm not a fan of scripts like runvdr to be honest. I opted to just write my own from scratch. I use the bash shell and hadn't considered whether or not freebsd has it available as well. I hope so! >> With vdr-xine no patching is necessary as long as you using >> xine-lib-1.2 hg revision 11658 (hash 3501e0a6f75c) or newer. =C2=A0I >> recommend using this regardless as it contains items necessary for >> VDR-1.7.17's new truecolor OSD support. >> > =C2=A0So xine-lib 1.2 is recommendable yet? =C2=A0I was so far trying to = stick > to 1.1.19 release + patches since other FreeBSD ports use libxine > too and I know nothing at all about the 1.2 branch and how stable > it is... :) Originally vdpau support was being developed against the 1.1 branch but it eventually matured to the point where it was merged into xine-lib-1.2 directly. Since then all development has been against xine-lib.1.2 with no backporting that I'm aware of. When vdpau was merged, I made the switch to the 1.2 branch. There have been a few bumps in the road but those were all resolved and my experience now is that xine-lib-1.2 vdpau is very stable. I'd say it's worth trying and see if you get the same results because it's sure a lot easier then maintaining a bunch of patches. :) >> Your ion1 should be able to handle temporal, as mine does. =C2=A0Using h= alf >> temporal shouldn't be necessary. >> > =C2=A0Ok I should check that. > > =C2=A0Hmm no, a 1080i recording of `Servus TV Hockey night' I did for > testing deinterlacing looks `jumpy' with temporal when there is > more motion. =C2=A0Maybe things have improved in libxine 1.2? It could be. I know vdpau support was completely re-written from scratch a little while back. There's also another alternative vdpau implementation being developed (also against 1.2) which is already working but looking good so far. IIRC it needs some work and a lot of code clean-up though. >> > - Small bug: =C2=A0if playback of a recording doesn't start try pressi= ng Green. >> > =C2=A0(or F6 with my example remote.conf keyboard mapping.) >> >> I've never heard of this bug. =C2=A0Could you elaborate? >> > =C2=A0It mostly happens with short recordings that were already played > before... =C2=A0I think. =C2=A0(Tho I also yesterday saw it with vdpau on= a > longer recording, for the first time.) I tried it here and couldn't reproduce the problem. I wonder if this is related to using xine-lib-1.1 vdpau? Are you aware of any linux users with the problem also? > =C2=A0Oh, if you have a link for that... :) I actually don't but I'll attach it to this post. :) Cheers --00504502e41c3802de049f6d41ab Content-Type: application/octet-stream; name="vdr-1.7.17-fix_na_dvbs_ac3.diff" Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="vdr-1.7.17-fix_na_dvbs_ac3.diff" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 X-Attachment-Id: f_glrbrikb0 ZGlmZiAtcHJ1TiB2ZHItMS43LjE3LW9yaWcvcGF0LmMgdmRyLTEuNy4xNy9wYXQuYwotLS0gdmRy LTEuNy4xNy1vcmlnL3BhdC5jCTIwMTEtMDMtMTMgMjM6MTU6NDIuMDAwMDAwMDAwIC0wNzAwCisr KyB2ZHItMS43LjE3L3BhdC5jCTIwMTEtMDMtMTQgMDA6MTQ6NDAuMDAwMDAwMDAwIC0wNzAwCkBA IC00ODYsNiArNDg2LDcgQEAgdm9pZCBjUGF0RmlsdGVyOjpQcm9jZXNzKHVfc2hvcnQgUGlkLCB1 XwogICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgU0k6OklTTzYzOUxhbmd1YWdlRGVz Y3JpcHRvciAqbGQgPSAoU0k6OklTTzYzOUxhbmd1YWdlRGVzY3JpcHRvciAqKWQ7CiAgICAgICAg ICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICBzdHJuMGNweShsYW5nLCBJMThuTm9ybWFsaXplTGFu Z3VhZ2VDb2RlKGxkLT5sYW5ndWFnZUNvZGUpLCBNQVhMQU5HQ09ERTEpOwogICAgICAgICAgICAg ICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgfQorICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAg SXNBYzMgPSB0cnVlOwogICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgYnJlYWs7CiAg ICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgZGVmYXVsdDogOwogICAgICAgICAgICAgICAgICAg ICAgICAgICAgIH0K --00504502e41c3802de049f6d41ab--
