updating - Mike34 - 2010-03-28

i have tried to update to version 2.11 and at the same time update CCcam to 2.1.4 but i cant seem to get them working together.
i have tried cccam 2.1.4 before and could not get that to work with 2.7 or 21.0
anyone know any tricks or tips to help outHuh?

Have you used the pre load on ccam.

On another subject HD video is in slow motion and out of sync with audio. used to work fine. Tvheadend or XBMC Huh
using Zotac nvidia ion

Oh bugger so now solution at mo then.


- Gujs - 2010-03-28

I know that there was some patch for forcing resolution at vdpau initialization. If somebody finds it, I can include it in build.

Thanks for the ppa repository. Makes life a lot easier.

Edit:
I made a test with a new*s server. It works perfectly :-) Fast switch times. Great work from the devs.

But the part I want, is watching TV from my XBMC. That does not work from XBMC live CD or SVN install... At least for me...

The hostname/ip address isn't saved correctly. You must edit the configuration file ~/.xbmc/userdata/addon_data/com.lonelycoder.hts.pvr/settings.xml manually. Then it works!

I think we should open up a ticket...

This solved my problem.

Does changing channels up / down and with numbers work for you guys. I have a lot of problems with this. I can change channels without problems just from channel list screen.

Same here.
The only way i get more-less problem-free channel change is to stop the playing channel, choose new one from the list screen.

I think this is a known problem; the author of the XBMP-TV script seems to have the same problem


- xbmcuser2000 - 2010-04-02

My problem with pvr-testing2 (from the gujs PPA) was solved thanks to the xoox solution.

In generall all that is implemented works properly but the channel changing fails occasionally.

Other problem is that none of the plugins that i have installed appears in the plugins section. The same plugins work perfectly in Camelot.


- RenZ0R - 2010-04-02

can anyone give me a full guide on how to get cccam or any cam working with this? I access a external server with my dreambox, I have all my channels scanned in and working on my pc and streaming to xbmc, but only FTA show up, ive scanned through the thread and see it works with ccam but the guide is very vauge on how to setup for a linux newb Smile

I got VDPAU working in pvr-testing2. This is a very ugly solution but it works for me:
