[ANNOUNCE] Remote Control Plugin 0.3.5

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

there is a bug fix release for the Remote Control plugin.


History:
--------
2006-01-25: Version 0.3.5
- Fixed segfault due to FileName == NULL in cTtyStatus::Recording() and
  cTtyStatus::Replaying() (thanks to Ronny Kornexl for reporting this one).
  Rewrote cTtyStatus::Recording() and cTtyStatus::Replaying():
  Do not assume that Name and/or FileName have a particular format.


It can be downloaded from 
? ? http://www.escape-edv.de/endriss/vdr/

See README for details.


Short description:
------------------
This plugin extends the remote control capabilities of vdr.
The following remote control devices are supported:

(a) linux input device driver ('/dev/input/eventX', X=0,1,2,...)
? ? - built-in remote control port of the av711x-based DVB cards
? ? ? (aka full-featured cards), e.g. DVB-S Nexus [1]
? ? - remote control port of some budget cards, e.g. Nova-CI [2]
? ? - other input devices (not tested, please report success!)
? ? See file FAQ for a list of cards which have been reported to work.

(b) keyboard (tty driver): /dev/console, /dev/ttyX

(c) TCP connection (telnet)

(d) LIRC

Notes:
[1] supported by DVB and dvb-kernel
[2] supported by dvb-kernel only


Summary of command line options:
--------------------------------
-i dev, ? --input=dev ? select device which supports the /dev/input protocol
-l dev, ? --lirc=dev ? ?select LIRC device
-t dev, ? --tty=dev ? ? select terminal device
-T dev, ? --TTY=dev ? ? select terminal device with 'OSD'
-p tcp:n, --port=tcp:n ?select connection on tcp port <n>


Examples:
---------
vdr -Premote
vdr -P"remote -i autodetect"
? ? Try to autodetect device '/dev/input/eventX' (X = 0,1,2,...).
? ? If no device can be identified, '-i /dev/input/event0' is used.

vdr -P"remote -i /dev/input/event2"
? ? use specified input device '/dev/input/event2'

vdr -P"remote -l /dev/lircd"
? ? select LIRC remote control

vdr -P"remote -p tcp:3333"
? ? wait for a telnet connection on tcp port 3333
? ? (use 'telnet vdr 3333' to access this port)

vdr -P"remote -t /dev/tty10"
? ? use terminal device without 'OSD'

vdr -P"remote -T /dev/tty10"
? ? use terminal device with 'OSD'

vdr -P"remote -i autodetect -p tcp:3333 -t /dev/tty10"

Have fun,

Oliver
