What are your thoughts should it be configurable (on or off)? It is now possible enable/disable backend resume positions. Default is disabled.
Edit. new versions with artwork and playback progress from VDR available:
vnsiserver: https://github.com/Dis90/vdr-plugin-vnsi...ckprogress
pvr.vdr.vnsi: https://github.com/Dis90/pvr.vdr.vnsi/tr...ckprogress
I still need to do:
- VNSI protocol version check to both server and client so nothing breaks example when users vnsiserver doesn't support artwork/resume position but client does.
- Support for artwork from remote server
Edit 17.8. New versions available:
vnsiserver: https://github.com/Dis90/vdr-plugin-vnsi...kendresume
pvr.vdr.vnsi: https://github.com/Dis90/pvr.vdr.vnsi/tr...kendresume
I am very appreciated to see new steps forward.
My vdr server are installed with ubuntu and need a refresh next year.
years ago, i did compile the packages by myself. This was better than using binary packages from others.
What Linux Distribution do you use?
I have e fresh Manjaro installation and will test your source code.
There is a nasty bug with the option "Replace filenames with library titles". Maybe you are able to fix the issue too?
I'm using Ubuntu. Good if you have time to test this on different platform. Currently this is only tested by me.
Do you want explain "Replace filenames with library titles" bug? I can try to fix it but I didn't even know such a feature
This feature "Replace filenames..." replaces only recording with information in the video database (movie section), so you can easily find recordings with no information in the video db. Without this feature you have to screen the kodi.log for missing videos and this is ugly.
i opened an issue in the year 2018:
Replace filenames with library titles" will not work with VDR VNSI Client #14791
skin: estuary mod v2 matrix
You can find the switch under:
Settings -> Media settings -> videos -> rubrik "files"
I have my complete vdr recordings under kodi -> video -> source recordings
no nfs or cifs in use!
and central mysql/mariadb database hold all information.
I can see every recording from any kodi client with vnsi without any additional configuration.
This is really one of the best features for me. Install kodi, configure vnsi (optional advanced settings for videodb) that's all.
if you go to the video section and select media source "recordings", than you will see all you vdr recordings (cutted with %). No fanart and only the description from vdr is visible. Than play a recording and stop it after a view seconds. Now you will see the replaces filename with the video title and the fanart is visible. If you restart kodi, the fanart is not visible till you play the recording.
But, if you select the movie section, the fanart of the same recording is visible an playable and persistent.
i hope this explain the setting
