Hi, i'd like to record movies with my Hauppauge PVR 350 and use my normal graphics card to view movies. So i configured and installed the plugins analogtv and xine. In one shell i start "vdr -Panalogtv -Pxine" and in another shell: xine "vdr:/tmp/vdr-xine/stream#demux:mpeg_pes" I can see the OSD in xine, but only the background "No Signal". I can record from /dev/video via command line, so basically it should work. Also, i can configure the keyboard keys for VDR and can use them to control VDR, i can see that with the OSD in xine. In vdr i get the output attached below. I wonder about the line that says that says: /dev/video0 ('WinTV PVR 350') does not support streaming i/o. Whenever i press a key in VDR, i get an output line by "xine" that says: vdr: osdflush: n: 1, 10, 4 # the numbers are varying. So does VDR not update the screen of xine cyclically? How can i get a picture in xine? Do i need another plugin? Or some other options?
