vdr 1.4.0 compiled... how to check if it works?

  • Hello,
    I have a skkystar 2 DVB card.
    Just compiled vdr 1.4.0 and applied patch to it.
    :modon
    Sorry, but talking about such patches is illegal in germany
    :modoff
    i compiled the files and copied vdr to the right directory
    Then i type vdr.
    What next...? I open xine but i dont get any image.
    Should this be working like this or what do i have to do?


    My dvb driver IS working (tried it with the progam teclasat viewer)


    this is the relevant section of my syslog:

    I hope someone can help me with this... thanks in advance

  • Loading seems ok for you. If you don't have a full-featured DVB-device (with an MPEG-decoder on-board) and want to see an image with the xine-frontend, you also need to compile and load (via -P) the xine-plugin. There's nothing about plugins in your log output, so I suppose there is no such plugin yet.

  • i tried the following:
    apt-get install vdr-plugin-xineliboutput
    This installs without any problems (but it installs for vdr version 1.4.3)
    When i try vdr -P xineliboutput, vdr: /usr/lib/vdr/plugins/libvdr-xineliboutput.so.1.4.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    (Because of the plugin being in another directory i guess, how to find which one?)


    Second try:
    I try installing vdr-xine using this link:


    http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/in…gin#Softwareanforderungen


    But i keep getting compile errors...


    Can i somehow get this to work using the "apt-get install vdr-plugin-xineliboutput" method.
    Or is there another (easier) way to get vdr working (doesn't have to be with xine, but has to be fast enough to be able to record, ...)?

  • i had a second try,
    got the files xine-lib, xine-ui (from source), and xine
    i first install xine-lib:


    ./configure
    make
    make install


    when i do the same for xine-ui, i get an error xine-lib should be installed first... (?)
