HOWTO: ReelVDR installieren für Activy mit eHD

    The Patch is to start activylird and to remap the Avtivy power button.
    You won't need it for lirc.


    Remove /etc/init.d/activy. So activylircd won't start and might not confuse your lircd.


    What is your vdr doing, when you press the power button?
    Did you map the power button, while teaching your remore control?


    I have changed /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh.
    Because this is what the Activy Remote Power Button is calling.

    Now I have got a small Nova-T USB Tuner and I can see the same result as Ichijoe in a mixed setup with DVB-S.


    It is not working with the S2API Driver but with Multiproto.


    There seems to be a bug in S2API patch which prevents a mixed setup.


    I'll take a look at it when I'll have time and desire to fix it (which can take a while).
    Probably Yuri might have an idee.

    There is also a switch in the setting menu, were you can choose if you want to have the standby/shutdown menu or if you want to go to standby directly.

    Yes, the patch for the stable version has a bug for DVB-T (because such bug had the first S2API patch for vanilla VDR-1.7.0).
    In a patch for the test version of this bug should not be. But not tested...

    O.k., thank you for the information.


    I don't want to change to testing right now.
    I will compare the patches and try to fix it manually.


    Hopefully there will be a new stable soon.


    And as far as I understand Schorsch here, they will change Netceiver and ReelVDR to S2API sooner or later:


    http://www.reelbox-forum.com/showthread.php?t=17679&highlight=S2API


    So there will be no need for patching any more in the far future.


    It might also be interessting to patch the Software for the Reel Netclient (see the defines for RB_MINI in the source code).
    The Netclient should also work with USB DVB devices and would be a very nice (small and silent) HDTV VDR für 249€ + 2,5"HD + USB devices.

    Finding the DVB-T problem in S2API is not as easy as I thought.


    So I'll wait for the next stable and try Yuris new patches.
    Or I'll will switch to testing temporary.


    Are there any big issues in the testiing tree right now?

    let me explain


    i have the power button configure on remote.conf


    if i press power on remote control the menu shows up and if i select poweroff the mediacenter shutdown


    if i choose stand by the mediacenter go to stand by


    wen the mediacenter is on standby if i press power button on remote control the mediacenter dont come up

    O.k.


    On my Activy the (remote control) powerbutton is known by the Linux acpi system.
    Even when the VDR is not reacting. This is why it works on the Activy to make the changes to /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh


    The ReelVDR is still alive in standby mode and is listening to network connections.
    I have a programm on my Iphone, which sends SVDRP-Commands.
    I can also wake it up from standby with this programm.
    But it looks like he is not listening to lirc.


    I don't know much about lircd.
    But it is possible to execute custom linux commands, independent from VDR.
    Take a look at the section about /etc/lircrc here:
    http://www.vdr-wiki.de/wiki/index.php/LIRC


    Try to configure lircd, so that the power button will call my little "wakeup script"

    Code
    if [ -f /tmp/vdr.standby ]; then #standby?
  /etc/init.d/reelvdr restart
else
  /usr/sbin/svdrpsend.sh HITK Power
fi

    ok problen solved



    thanks for you pacience Galaga


    let me explain how i make this runing


    i use the comand irexec


    put on my startup lirc script for running after the lirc starts


    # /etc/init.d/lircd
    #!/bin/bash
    ### BEGIN INIT INFO
    # Provides: lircd
    # Required-Start: $syslog
    # Required-Stop: $syslog
    # Should-Start: $local_fs
    # Should-Stop: $local_fs
    # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5
    # Default-Stop: 0 1 6
    # Short-Description: Starts LIRCD daemon.
    # Description: LIRCD is used to control different
    # infrared receivers and transceivers.
    ### END INIT INFO
    case "$1" in
    start)
    /usr/local/sbin/lircd --driver=default --device=/dev/lirc0 --pidfile=/var/run/lirc0.pid --listen=8765
    /usr/local/sbin/lircd --driver=default --device=/dev/lirc1 --pidfile=/var/run/lirc1.pid --output=/dev/lircd --connect=localhost:8765
    chmod a+rw /dev/lcd* /dev/lirc*
    export DISPLAY=:0
    /usr/bin/irexec -d /home/reel/.lircrc
    ;;
    stop)
    killall lircd
    killall -9 irexec
    ;;
    *)
    echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/lircd {start|stop}"
    exit 1
    ;;
    esac




    then i make a file called .lircrc on /home/reel


    and i put this config



    begin
    button = exit
    prog = irexec
    config = /etc/init.d/reelvdr restart
    end


    now wen i start the mediacenter the irexec runs on background and if i push the button exit he restart my reelvdr


    wen i choose stanby on menu the mediacenter go to stand by and restart wen i push this button

    Yes, there is a new stable.
    And RMM says there will be a new recovery image with Ubuntu 8.04 within a few days.


    Anyway, I'll have to make a full backup of my old system with Acronis first.


    I will wait for the 8.04 image before I try this.
    And I'll have to wait for a long weekend. Otherwise my family will complain, if TV isn't working.


    I you like to start:
    Update to the new version, and repeat all the steps from the beginning (the update might update files you have already patched).
    And you have to use Yuris patch for the testing branch:
    http://www.vdr-portal.de/board…nt.php?attachmentid=22830
    Meanwhile there might be new rejects.


    @Yuri
    Could you please provide us a patch for your latest version from the testing branch.


    Have fun,


    Sascha

    They call ist stable and normally it won't change for a while ;D


    But you'll have to use the latest patch for testing, because what was formerly known as testing is now stable.
