I'm starting to think that maybe my problem IS caused entirely by this
softhddevice bug. Because my softhddevice keep freezing quite
frequently, I have added a shutdown command that detaches softhddevice
and leaves vdr running. And then when I watch something, I'm pressing
buttons and using menus and there might be timers recording etc, so
vdr never becomes idle enough to do the housekeeping?
I tried to understand the code, but I'm having difficulties. :) in
vdr.c, only place that sets LastInteract is this:
Interact = Menu ? Menu : cControl::Control(); // might have
been closed in the mean time
if (Interact) {
LastInteract = Now;
eOSState state = Interact->ProcessKey(key);
if (state == osUnknown && Interact != cControl::Control()) {
So.. Does this mean that softhddevice's dummy player has menu open all
the time? softhddevice.cpp doesn't have really anything menu-related
in the dummy player, all those methods must be inherited from main vdr
class.
Only thing that looks suspicious is this, dummy player's ProcessKey:
eOSState cSoftHdControl::ProcessKey(eKeys key)
{
if (SuspendMode == SUSPEND_NORMAL && (!ISMODELESSKEY(key)
|| key == kMenu || key == kBack || key == kStop)) {
delete Player;
Player = NULL;
Resume();
SuspendMode = NOT_SUSPENDED;
return osEnd;
}
return osContinue;
}
Should it really return osContinue all the time?
As long as a cPlayer (or a cReceiver, for that matter) is attached to
a cDevice, VDR will not perform its housekeeping tasks. This is to
avoid any problems during replay or recording, possibly caused by
heavy disk access.
