VDR does an emergency exit every 2-10 minutes when recording a program with subtitles (currently, a documentary about atomic weapons on YLE 2). I'm on VDR-1.5.11 currently, have one DVB-C (budget) card and a dxr3 card. I haven't noticed this before, and I'm not sure actually if this is the same problem, since I haven't used TV a lot recently because of being busy... but I quicly checked recent recordings, and all of them are ruined because of this constant restarting (well, perhaps not ruined but nevertheless have ugly gaps / missing a few seconds every few minutes). I don't know if I've done any recordings without subtitles recently, but I'll check if they're OK when I have the time. In my syslog, I got exactly similar entries as Michael, like so: Nov 21 00:15:33 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6900] buffer usage: 70% (tid=6899) Nov 21 00:15:33 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6900] buffer usage: 80% (tid=6899) Nov 21 00:15:35 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6900] buffer usage: 90% (tid=6899) Nov 21 00:15:35 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6899] clearing transfer buffer to avoid overflows Nov 21 00:15:35 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6900] buffer usage: 0% (tid=6899) Nov 21 00:15:35 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6899] dxr3: audiodecoder: sample rate=48000 Nov 21 00:15:35 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6899] dxr3: audiodecoder: channels=2 Nov 21 00:15:37 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6899] dxr3: audiodecoder: sample rate=48000 Nov 21 00:15:37 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6899] dxr3: audiodecoder: channels=2 Nov 21 00:15:39 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6900] buffer usage: 70% (tid=6906) Nov 21 00:15:40 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6900] buffer usage: 80% (tid=6906) Nov 21 00:15:41 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6907] dxr3: cSPUEncoder::Flush: OSD data size: 8288 Nov 21 00:15:42 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6900] buffer usage: 90% (tid=6906) Nov 21 00:15:43 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6900] buffer usage: 100% (tid=6906) Nov 21 00:15:43 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6900] ERROR: 1 ring buffer overflow (65 bytes dropped) Nov 21 00:15:44 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6907] dxr3: cSPUEncoder::Flush: OSD data size: 8623 Nov 21 00:15:49 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6900] ERROR: 10186 ring buffer overflows (1914968 bytes dropped) Nov 21 00:15:49 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6907] dxr3: cSPUEncoder::Flush: OSD data size: 4947 Nov 21 00:15:52 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6907] dxr3: cSPUEncoder::Flush: OSD data size: 7312 Nov 21 00:15:55 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6900] ERROR: 13027 ring buffer overflows (2449076 bytes dropped) Nov 21 00:15:56 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6907] dxr3: cSPUEncoder::Flush: OSD data size: 7863 Nov 21 00:15:59 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6905] ERROR: video data stream broken Nov 21 00:15:59 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6905] initiating emergency exit Nov 21 00:15:59 VillenVDRdevil vdr: [6835] emergency exit requested - shutting down I believe only the last three lines are significant. Is there a workaround for this? I remember seeing someone with a patch that prevented this (IMHO idiotic) emergency exits, but OTOH the patches could have been for a different issue. -- Ville Aakko - ville.aakko@xxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
