Hi everybody,

I just read on the German IT news portal Golem (http://golem.de/0601/42740.html) that Hauppauge announced an update to the MediaMVP supporting Wireless communication. See English article here: http://uk.us.biz.yahoo.com/bw/060105/20060105005754.html?.v=1
As I understand it, the new device also natively supports DivX videos.

Hey,

my only wish: integrating into the mplayer/mp3-plugin to watch any type of media on my vdr server.

Anyway, keep up the good work!

Regards,

Mephisto

Looking forward to that version 0.1, I hope it includes the features I asked for ;-)

To build vdr plugins you need some packages including vdr-dev, patchutils and dpatch and a directory debian within your root directory with certain control files. Then a simple "debian/rules binary" creates the deb-file. I uploaded a rudimentary version of this directory to http://vdr-patches.ods.org/debian.tar.bz2

I never did this before and don't think of this as more as a starting point. You can replace my name with yours wherever you find it, if you also take the responsibility ;-)

Hi,

I'm very imperessed by your work. This looks very promising. As others I've been playing around with MVPServer, but for the last few weeks my MVP has been plugged out as I waited for this plugin to mature.

I noticed one thing: when I was trying to look at my recording summaries, my VDR server crashed. Here are the error messages

Segmentation faultI'm running vdr 1.3.27, you can find the debian deb-file I created for the plugin here.

As I'm using one of the newer MVPs I have a newer remote control with additional buttons. It is quite inconvenient to use ch+/- and vol+/- instead of the navigation buttons around my ok-button. Could you please support this remote?

Another thing that would be cool is a built-in tftp-server. I had no problems configuring my server, but other people might. I think MVPServer added this feature recently, you could probably borrow their code.

Keep up the good work.
