VNSI4 alpha
i saw opdenkamp merged the vnsi4 pull request in his repo. it is now avalaible in the gotham ios and atv2 nightlies so that i can give it a try? which vdr plugin shoud i use? the one under https://github.com/FernetMenta/xbmc-pvr-...vnsiserver?

i'd like to say thank you to for your great work!

I am not familiar with the ios builds but I guess it should show up now in the nightlies. My vnsi4 branch is outdated now and will be deleted. Please use opdenkamp repo from now.

thank you for the fast replay.
i tried the last ios nightly but it fails (did a fresh install from the scratch) and xbmc chrashs on my ipad2 when i try to use the client specific options. in the window "PVR client specific actions" i only get the entry "VDR admin" and after pushing it, xbmc crashs. there is also no timeshift support in the Live TV window (the controls are grayed out). is there a specific option to enable the timeshift support? a few messages above you told about setup.conf options for the vnsi server plugin. do you provide a documentation for them?

The installation of the addon missed some files:
23:06:53 T:168300544 ERROR: GetDirectory - Error getting /private/var/stash/Applications.m1Bdns/XBMC.app/XBMCData/XBMCHome/addons/pvr.vdr.vnsi/resources/skins/skin.confluence

Are only the skin files missing or the entire folder?

You need this dialog to enable timeshift on the backend.

there is no folder "skin.confluence" under /private/var/stash/Applications.m1Bdns/XBMC.app/XBMCData/XBMCHome/addons/pvr.vdr.vnsi/resources/skins/

should i rename the folder "Confluence" to "skin.confluence", or leads this to other problems?
Reply
It should look like this:
https://github.com/opdenkamp/xbmc-pvr-ad...rces/skins

Folder confluence was renamed to skin.confluence. Maybe your installer was not able to rename. Check the content of the folders with the git repo.

thank you very much for the friendly advice. it seems that the package contain no confluence skin file for the vnsi extension:

IPad:/var/mobile root# dpkg-deb -c xbmc-20130612-6129c8f-master-ios.deb | grep Admin.xml
-rw-r--r-- root/wheel 7225 2013-06-13 10:12 ./Applications/XBMC.app/XBMCData/XBMCHome/addons/pvr.vdr.vnsi/resources/skins/skin.aeon.nox/1080i/Admin.xml

but i will try it manually on weekend. ;-)

okay, after a manual install of the missing skin files (i think this is a bug in the nightly build packages) i have access to the timeshift options (and it seems to workBlush) and the "VDR OSD" now. but there is nothing in the VDR OSD. Blank screen no OSD also when i pushed "Select to control OSD" and "Controlling OSD -press info to exit".

the vdr syslog say if i leave the VDR OSD Window :

Jun 15 11:03:51 home-server vdr: [23676] VNSI: Client with ID 9 seems to be disconnected, removing from client list

and the xbmc.log say:

VDR OSD is implemented for GL, GLES, and DX but requires defines at compile time. I have done GLES on the RPi. Unfortunately I have no iOS nor XCode for doing the remaining work on that platform.
You are just missing the OSD, the rest should work.

Thanks for your explanation FernetMenta (i installed the live plugin patch and have also now access to the osd).
But i have another issue. After approximately every 15 - 20 min the xbmc pvr addon lost the connection to the server:

Looks like you hit this issue: https://github.com/opdenkamp/xbmc-pvr-addons/pull/181

okay that could be an explanation for the actual behavior. but i a saw the discussion is in progress and there is no final fix available now, right? are this problem also occur in vnsi3 and frodo? i noticed a similar behavior on my ipad with this combination...

and thanks again for your great support!!!
Reply
yes, this issue was already present in vnsi3 and before.

what patch you are referring to?
Reply
i refer this one here:
http://www.vdr-portal.de/board16-video-d...abeplugin/

it works well (despite of the handling for entering information) , and i was also able to configure the right vnsi parameters for my headless server.

btw, your pvr plugin works without no problems (until now Wink) on my atv2 with latest gotham nightly build on ios 5.0.2 but i like to do some more testing. it's a pity that it comes to dropouts on the ipad2. but i will look foreward.Smile
