Thanks Darrent, You put me in the correct path. I discovered then that vdr-xine was not grabbing but due to something different, y4mscaler broken due to a recent update of mjpegtools. I have fixed y4mscaler, and so now GRAB works when vdr-xine is the plugin. Funny though, that now softdevice stop working with latest 1.3.42. And that I'm still unable to have OSD with vdr-xine (everything else works, remote, etc.). I post this some time ago but still can't find the reason, any clue as of why OSD doesn't show when using vdr-xine? thanks for your grab tip. luis El 04/02/2006, a las 22:26, Darren Salt escribi?: > I demand that Luis Palacios may or may not have written... > >> Softdevice seems not to be the cause of the problem, GRAB doesn't >> work either without it. > > cDevice::GrabImage (the default) returns NULL, i.e. grab always > fails, so > cSoftDevice needs to override this (much as cXineDevice in vdr-xine > does for > older VDR or, with a patch which I posted here a few weeks ago, for > current > VDR). > > vdr/dvbdevice.c contains code which you can probably adapt for this. > > [snip] > -- > | Darren Salt | nr.
