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

dCrypt · 2011-05-27 19:31

I've tested version 2:11.0-pvr+odk38~git20110521.09c02fa in both Linux and Windows, and this problem seems to be present only in the Linux platform; Windows version behaves perfectly.

odk40, both Maverick and Natty, still have this problem.

Thanks for that advice!

What did you do?
I have the same error on my TBS6981 card...

Code:

stopping after fatal fail (vdr: no primary device found - using first device!)

I have a problem with folowing the easy how to.
I'm running ubuntu linux 2.6.35-30, with XBMC PRE-11.0 compiled on July 18 2011, and vdr 1.7.17.
The installation of this all went without any problem. I even scanned all the channels without any problem. But when I activate live tv in xbmc, and the vnsi addon, I don't get the channel list in xbmc.

Is there someone who can help me with this? it's frustrating me, because I already tried all kind of things, even reinstalling everything

I'm a little bit further. the channellist must be placed in /var/lib/vdr/channels.conf instead of /etc/vdr/channels.conf. To be adapted in the first post of this topic?

Problem is now that loading channels on xbmc start-up takes ages.... If I keep less then 50 channels, XBMC can load them. But when I want to load all my channels, XBMC crashes after a while.

Somebody has the same problem?

Thx for this thread, it helps me very well.

But one thing..
Can I configure XBMC or VDR to make it possible pause and/or reverse live tv?

thx in advance
