Hello Rolf Ahrenberg and myself are pleased to announce the first release of joint effort plugin which turns VDR into a full-blown IPTV receiver. IPTV plugin implements an additional VDR device which provides all the functionalities of DVB cards such as live viewing, recording, epg etc. The plugin is capable of receiving MPEG transport streams via various network protocols, such as UDP/RTP multicast and HTTP. Also file input is supported. The plugin is tested with streamdev-server, VLC and IPTV stream provided by a local internet service provider. Minimum required VDR version is 1.5.10. The plugin also includes a patch to VDR core to allow plugin specific channels to be added to channels.conf. The patch is designed to be as generic as possible to be beneficial for other projects as well, for example analog and pvrinput plugins. We are also hoping to see the patch integrated into the core VDR later on. More details and the plugin package can be found from the plugin homepage: http://www.saunalahti.fi/~rahrenbe/vdr/iptv -- Antti Seppälä _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
