[LINUX] HOW-TO get Live TV with VDR and PVR-Testing Branch - Without manual compile!
Question,

I have been trying to install xbmc on Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala). I am following the proceedure from the link below. The issue I am having is with the PPAs. The system does not seem to see them. I have tried everything I can think of at this point short of reinstalling Ubuntu.

I get the message xbmc: Depends: xbmc-data xxxxx but is not going to install E: Broken packages.....

Yes the multiverse repository is enabled.
I have tried to manually added them in /etc/apt/sources.list

The mother board is a
Zotac Synergy Edition Atom N230 1.6GHz Mini-ITX Motherboard IONITX-E-E
With 2 Gig of memory and 160 Gig STAT drive

Link to the procedure:

Can anyone tell me if there is a major speed difference between VDR VNSI and TvHeadend? I can't get VDR to work (just yet) but videos I've seen show channels changing really quickly. Tvheadend takes about 4 seconds currently.

Thanks

VNSI is quick.

Can you not even get FTA channels working?

Haven't tried. Not to worry though because I should get my subscription card working this weekend.

Thanks man

VNSI seems to be better, but I have problem with it. I use pvrinput to get analogue channels andthey doesn't work properly through VNSI Sad With streamdev they work ok.

Hey everyone.

So I finally managed to get VDR and some of the plugins working correctly, happy days because it is much faster than the streaming clients.

I now have two extremely annoying problems and each of the solutions posted online don't seem to help.

Problem 1 - My IR remote only works for the 1st 5 seconds when first booting into XBMC. Restarting lirc fixes the problem but only until my next reboot

Problem 2 - the VNSI plugin doesn't start according to XBMC. A manual restart fixes the problem. I've tried ordering the plugins, creating restart scripts, updating rc.local, nothing has worked.

Please tell me someone has had this problem and knows a quick fix?

I'm on Ubuntu 10.10 32bit

Thanks

I have an Intel chipset so will need to compile my drivers which is a bit of a pain

Intel GPU? Ubuntu offers pre-compiled ready to install intel GPU driver packages. yaVDR is based on Ubuntu. You don't have to compile anything to install the driver. But yaVDR is only pre-configured to work flawlessly with Nvidia GPUs.

Thanks for the info. I might go that route if Tvheadend stops working out
