vdr-rotor - big problem.

  • Hello,
    I am using vdr-1.6.0 on a gentoo box with rotor plugin. Since I updated something, might be glibc to 2.9, rotor plugin stopped working.
    The problem is that the rotor does not move, and when I try to go into the plugin setup menu with the OSD, it freezes vdr and vdr restarts due to watchdog. All the other plugins work, and also vdr, except rotor plugin! I tried to compile vdr and all the plugins with gcc-4.1.2, I was able to get into rotor plugin menu, but the plugin does not move the rotor. I get the following messages in the log with gcc-4.1.1:

    Code
    vdr: [31077] ERROR (menu.c,232): Invalid file descriptor (translated into english!)
    vdr: [31077] ERROR (menu.c,244): Invalid file descriptor
    vdr: [31077] ERROR (menu.c,262): Invalid file descriptor 
    vdr: [30958] Failed to send diseqc command!


    repeated lot of times.


    Compiled with gcc-4.3.3 I just see in the log:

    Code
    Mar 30 15:16:38 sattuner vdr: [22716] fatal error, server exiting: Invalid file descriptor
    Mar 30 15:16:38 sattuner vdr: [22716] streamdev server thread ended (pid=22687, tid=22716)

    Mar 30 15:16:40 sattuner vdrwatchdog[22812]: restarting VDR


    Could someone please help me please? Unfortunately I cannot come back to glibc-2.8.


    My box is an EPIA en15000g board with Hauppauge hvr-4000. Kernel 2.6.29.


    Thanks and regards.

  • It looks as if the rotor plugin is no longer maintained and it does not compile with S2-API for example.


    I suggest you install xdipo for your rotor and then use the setup plugin to define a menu like ´Rotor´


    and there entries for your various positions (launching the right command for each of them)


    xdipo has a gui and also support command line parameters.
