I dont'use this plugin but you have really follow the Zabrimus instructions (tested a couple of years ago)

In lingua originale: devi proprio seguirle alla lettera

I'm using radio plugin for years ... always stillpicture !!!

Zabrimus wrote

With EXT and vlc i had sometimes problems that the script does not stop cleanly (e.g. vlc is still running).

In my vlcinput I added a simple line at the beginning of the file

killall -9 vlc

In my experience this should prevent the prob

Zabrimus is genial

while vlcinput is clear It's an ext file

RADIO should be hardcoded in streambasehandler.cpp

Really great

You can use vlc as root too

in a terminal you have to use the following command

sed -i 's/geteuid/getppid/' /usr/bin/vlc

after that all work

Sometimes happen that vlcinput is unable to stream some internet radio (expecially american radio trasmitting at 22050 Hz)

so the solution is add 'samplerate=44100' after the codec mpga (better is replace it with mp3)

LC_NUMERIC=C vlc "${URL}" \
--sout "#transcode{vcodec=mp2v$RESIZE_OPTIONS,acodec=mp3,samplerate=44100,vb=${VIDEO_BITRATE},ab=${AUDIO_BITRATE}}:standard{access=udp,mux=ts{pid-video=$#{VPID},pid-audio=${APID},pid-spu=${SPID}},dst=127.0.0.1:${PORT}}" \
  --intf dummy

Mmm...

there is a problem

using iptv alone no problem image loaded (stillpicture)

using both radio and iptv even deactivating stillpicture on radio plugin iptv don't load the background image

Personally using a patched vlciptv + a script on the radio side I prefer the second option

It's okay on Rpi5 too

It's okay

now image load correctly on Trixie (pc)

would be okay on rpi4/5

Would be great if Inj publish again his old vlciptv patch + config file for radio plugin

so you can see artist & song in the below of the background image (radio internet streaming)

Tested fix-stillpicture on Debian Trixie and Fedora 42 on pc using softhddevice by ual0ny

If start vdr as user there's no problem

but if I start vdr as root all is ok then if I kill and start it again always as root there's no sound on radio streaming channels

It looks like a prob on vlcinput more than a prob with radio plugin

Update

Found the solution sed -i 's/geteuid/getppid/' /usr/bin/vlc

All is okay

Wait I'm testing it on fedora now

With the last version of softhddevice-drm-gles and this patched version of vdr-plugin-radio

https://github.com/rellla/vdr-plu…ix-stillpicture

now soft-drm is able to load the radio background image - tested on rpi4 & rpi5

with this type of configuration

stillpicture OFF on Iptv plugin

stillpicture ON on radio plugin

Thanks a lot

You have a p.m.

Update after recompilation

No image and sound with iptv + radio with Ples activated

Segmentation fault with iptv +radio with Stillpicture

Segmentation fault with only iptv with Stillpicture

In any case no background image

Not working on Rp4. I've the same error (segmentation fault)

2872 Errore di segmentazione /usr/local/bin/vdr -l 3.7 -u root --lirc -P'dvbapi' -P'softhddevice-drm-gles -a hw:CARD=sndrpihifiberry,0 -d 1920x1080@50' -P'iptv -y /usr/local/bin/yt-dlp' -P'radio' -s /usr/local/bin/vdrpoweroff

Pls note that without radio plugin using only iptv activating stillpicture I've the same following error

4965 Errore di segmentazione /usr/local/bin/vdr -l 3.7 -u root --lirc -P'dvbapi' -P'softhddevice-drm-gles -a hw:CARD=sndrpihifiberry,0 -d 1920x1080@50' -P'iptv -y /usr/local/bin/yt-dlp' -s /usr/local/bin/vdrpoweroff

and always only with iptv activating ples I've no error but not background image

It's okay with softhddevice too

I specify that the same prob is using iptv without radio plugin. No background image loaded

Thanks for your interest

Found a simple solution for avoiding the abort

The problem is that the actual version of soft-gles is unable

to load the background image both with iptv and radio while your old one (1.4.2) did it

Yes .I've tested with that version too

FFmpeg 7.1.3 native on Debian Trixie (raspberry)

In the next three days (not tomorrow) I can test again everything maybe with rpi-ffmpeg (usually there's no change)
