Something changed between VDR 1.3.34 and 1.3.42 which leads to a much higher rate of (apparent) TS read errors. I'm getting corrupted pictures and no sound with repacker error messages all the way with .42 or .43, while .34 is okay. This happens on two different machines with different hardware (FF vs. budget DVB-S card) and kernel versions. I have no real idea which change caused the problem, but this seems to cure it: --- dvbdevice.c 25 Feb 2006 09:46:06 -0000 1.1.1.2 +++ dvbdevice.c 25 Feb 2006 12:01:30 -0000 1.2 @@ -1179,7 +1179,7 @@ CloseDvr(); fd_dvr = DvbOpen(DEV_DVB_DVR, CardIndex(), O_RDONLY | O_NONBLOCK, true); if (fd_dvr >= 0) - tsBuffer = new cTSBuffer(fd_dvr, MEGABYTE(2), CardIndex() + 1); + tsBuffer = new cTSBuffer(fd_dvr, MEGABYTE(5), CardIndex() + 1); return fd_dvr >= 0; } Perhaps the repacker changes need somehow more buffer space, packets, processing time (but I have <50% CPU load even with xine on one box) or whatever?
