Hi Stefan

I am using  vdr 2.2.0-148.40 from obs::/build.suse.org/vdr on top of tumbleweed 20181118 and it seems to work without problems.

Ok, so I'm not doing this just for me ;-)

I can watch cable TV in SD and HD resolution. Where is the problem with the dvbhddevice?

It does no longer build. dvbhddevice used the AUDIO_GET_PTS ioctl, which has been removed in kernel 4.19-rc1 with this commit: commit d21c249b26311dd193b100e65fc9e7ae96233d40 Author: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@kernel.org> Date: Wed May 30 11:07:04 2018 -0400 media: dvb/audio.h: get rid of unused APIs There are a number of other ioctls that aren't used anywhere inside the Kernel tree. Get rid of them. But dvbhddevice is only useful with so-called "full featured" cards, which have an audio/video decoder built-in (and their own HDMI video out connector). The only such card I know of is the TechnoTrend S2-6400 (which is not available for buying since some years anymore) and whose driver never made it into the mainline kernel. => it would not have worked out of the box with openSUSE anyway.

vdr is only a VNSI server, for real watching I use Kodi on the same machine.

I use it in a similar headless way, programming timers via vdradmin and vdr-live plugin, if I need interactive VDR GUI I either use xineliboutput on another machine or a raspi with streamdev and the raspihddevice output plugin :-)

PS: I can try 2.4 if you succeed to advance the version

2.4 will first appear in obs://build.opensuse.org/vdr and I will be testing it from there, before I'll eventually submit it to factory/tumbleweed ;-) -- Stefan Seyfried "For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled." -- Richard Feynman -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
