Hi,

I run vomp 0.2.7/vdr 1.6.0 on debian etch (e-tobi-repository). My two TT2300 dvb-c-cards sometimes crash and I need to reboot the vdr. That's really odd, because my vdr runs on my homeserver, which provides NAS and other services to my network.

Now I changed my setup, I'm running the vdr in a xen domU, so I don't have to reboot the whole server but only the VM.

Now I'd like to allow my family to restart the vdr VM via vomp. I need to run a shell script through the vomp menu or a custom remote control key. Are there any hooks to expand the menu?

BTW: I found no docs about the user assignable remote control keyes introduced with 0.2.7. How does this feature work what does it provide?

Hi Chris,

I have a channel in my list which sends no EPG info (eurosport via dvb-t). The guide (red button) doesn't show an empty line for this channel, but the program of the next station in the list.

cheers,

Hy everybody,

Chris, thank you for VOMP, this is great stuff! I used vdr-plugin-mediamvp before, and the step from that to vomp is a step from 19th cetury to 21st...

I have two points for the wishlist though...

First, it would be great to have support for cutting recordings to get rid of the commercials. I have a 'headless' VDR, so I can't cut the recordings with VDR. BTW: does anybody know a software for linux to cut VDR-recordings i.e. MPEG2 transport streams?

The second wish is support for password (PIN) protected recordings. My children watch TV and recordings with vomp, and I have some recordings, I don't want them to watch (not that sort of recordings you might think of right now :-)... I didn't had the time to setup an development system yet, but had already an idea how to implement this feature: If a folder contains a file '.pin' which contains an pin like 12345, then vomp pops up a menu to enter it via remote control and show the recordings in that folder only, if the pin is entered correctly.

Cheers,
edi
