probleme mit linvdr 0.7

Hi,

ich denke das Du zunächst mal Dein Log per Logread anschauen solltest. Eventuell steht da ja schon was zu lesen.

Du kannst ja auch erstmal alle Plugins deaktivieren und den VDR dann neu starten. Aber ohne LOG oder irgendwelche anderen Anhaltspunkte wird Dir wohl keiner weiterhelfen können.

Gruss // André

und das wiederholt sich dann immer in einigen abständen. kann mir da jemand weiterhelfen?

Die Meldung erscheint bei mir wenn ich Graphtft aktiviert habe. Da fehlen Dateien, es gibt einen extra threat dazu.

I installed a "clean" LINVDR 0.7 install and the installation went just fine. After reboot VDR says "Something went wrong. VDR respawning to fast, waiting one minute"

I took away all of the VDR plugins, but situation remained the same. I wonder should I use the older 0.6 version? But from where can I get it?

Hello,

on chance to get a download is to follow this Link.

But maybe your Problem ist not LinVDR itself, but your hardware may be incompatible with linvdr.

Only a question: Did you took a look at your logfile (with logread or if you want to save it with logread > \path\name.txt)??? Maybe you can find something.

With best regards // André

Alex, Thanks for the link. I will try it. The ECS mainboard is on the "compatible" -list. Also Technotrend DVB-T 1.2 Premium card that I am using should be compatible.

... and you did install the Firmware of your DVB-T card by hand? From the CD shipped with your card?

Best regards, Mirko

No, I bought the card second-hand and the firmware is "as it is". Should I get a new firmware for the card?

What do you mean with "as is"? Where did you get the Firmware from? It's not included in LinVDR 0.7.

Best regards, Mirko

Hi!

On my VDR i had a problem in FSTAB, this line wasen´t there:

sysfs /sysfs sysfs defaults 0 0

So: After sysfs was mounted and the timers were deleted everything went well.

This is because you updated your system. We don't change your fstab because there might have been changes.

The card was used, not new. So I don't have any cd with it. Where the Firmware can be found?

Actually, I have just tested that the card works with Windows XP, so the hardware should be working.

I have no download URL for the firmware, but it is part of the Windows drivers. Perhaps give the download page of Hauppauge a try.

Look for something like tda1004x.bin

I am quite new with Linux (old with Windows , so, did I get it right that the firmware file must be placed to disk in certain directory, instead of flashing to DVB-T card eeprom?

Thanks for help for all in this thread.

The firmware file in the Windows installation folder is actually called ttlcdacc.dll, and it needs to be copied to /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware as tda1004x.bin, or as dvb-fe-tda10045.fw if you're using a more recent kernel.

EDIT: you can get the driver from the technotrend.de website:

ANOTHER EDIT: Just seen you're using the Premium card, not the budget one. The instructions above are for budget cards, I guess they're similar to premium cards, but I'm not sure exactly which files you need. The download for the drivers for the premium card is:

http://www.technotrend.de/new/217g/tt_Premium_217g.zip

I have now copied a firmware file from windows to /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware as tda1004x.bin, AND as dvb-fe-tda10045.fw.

Still got the message "vdr respawning to fast, sleeping for one minute"

I noticed that in /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware directory there were allready some .fw -files. For example dvb-fe-tda10046.fw.

Could it be a good idea to try it in completely different pc hardware? Or maybe worth trying the old 0.6 version. It is a bit difficult, because all the links (even the links to old ones)point to the new 0.7 version iso image.

My DVB-T card is Technotrend Premium 1.2.

I hope you tried VDR without any plugins. And had a look into "logread". Which error does he display now?

Best regards, Mirko

Hi,

After installing it again without putting any firmware files to disk, it seems that logread gives ERROR: channel data results in invalid ID.

Perhaps I should configure that .conf file?
