* Remote Control Keys
|
|
|
|
The following remote control keys are used to control the VDR
|
|
operation. To keep the number of different keys as small as
|
|
possible, several keys have different meanings in the various
|
|
modes:
|
|
|
|

|
|
(1) The "Mark" button in the "Timers" menu only works if sorting the timers
|
|
has been disabled in the "Setup" menu.
|
|
|
|
* Navigating through the On Screen Menus
|
|
|
|
The "Main" menu can be called up with the "Menu" key of your remote
|
|
control unit. The "Up" and "Down" keys are used to select a specific
|
|
item. The "Left" and "Right" keys can be used to change options, and
|
|
the numeric keys allow direct input of numeric data. The "Ok" key
|
|
confirms any changes (or switches to a channel in the "Channels" menu).
|
|
The "Back" key goes back one level in the menu structure, discarding
|
|
any changes that might have been made in the current menu.
|
|
|
|
In the "Timers" menu, the current timer can be enabled or disabled with
|
|
the "Right" or "Left" key, respectively (enabled timers are marked with '>',
|
|
timers that are currently recording are marked with '#').
|
|
"Ok" here opens the "Edit timer" menu.
|
|
|
|
Textual options, like channel names or recording file names, can be edited
|
|
by pressing the "Right" button (which puts brackets around the current
|
|
character as in "[R]TL"), selecting the desired character position with
|
|
"Left" and "Right", and changing the character with the "Up" and "Down"
|
|
keys. "Ok" then confirms the changes. The special character '^' can be used
|
|
to "cut off" a string at this position. When this character is visible in the
|
|
brackets (as in abc[^]), the next press to the "Left" or "Ok" button will
|
|
actually cut off the string. Using "Up" and/or "Down" brings back the
|
|
original rest of the string (unless you have pressed "Left" or "Ok").
|
|
|
|
The "Red", "Green", "Yellow" and "Blue" buttons have special meanings
|
|
in various menus and are listed at the bottom of the on-screen-display.
|
|
|
|
At any point in the menu system, pressing the "Menu" key again will
|
|
immediately leave the menu system (discarding any pending changes).
|
|
|
|
* The "Schedule" Menu
|
|
|
|
The "Schedule" menu implements VDR's "Electronic Program Guide" (EPG).
|
|
|
|
Select "Schedule" from the "Main" menu and you get a list of all upcoming
|
|
broadcasts on the current channel.
|
|
|
|
"Up" and "Down" can be used to scroll through this list, and pressing "Ok"
|
|
displays detailed information about the selected programme. Pressing "Ok"
|
|
again (or pressing "Back") gets you back into the "Schedule" menu.
|
|
|
|
From the "Schedule" menu, the "Green" button opens the "What's on now?"
|
|
menu, which displays all programmes that are currently running on all
|
|
channels that broadcast their programme information on the current
|
|
transponder, or from channels that have been current lately (VDR stores
|
|
all information it gathers in an internal list). The more channels you
|
|
have been switching through lately, the longer this list will be.
|
|
The "Yellow" button opens the "What's on next?" menu, which lists all
|
|
programmes that will start next on all channels.
|
|
|
|
Inside the "What's on now/next?" menus the "Green" button toggles between
|
|
the "Now" and "Next" display, and the "Yellow" button takes you to the
|
|
"Schedule" menu of the current channel in the list.
|
|
|
|
The "Red" button allows you to instantly program a timer to record the
|
|
selected programme. You will get into the "Edit Timer" menu in which
|
|
everything has already been filled in, and you can make any modifications
|
|
you may want to apply. Note that the Start and Stop time are offset by the
|
|
MarginStart and MarginStop parameters (see Setup) in order to make sure the
|
|
entire programme is recorded in case it doesn't exactly adhere to its
|
|
published start/stop times. Of course, no guarantee can be given that the
|
|
default margin values will be sufficient, so in case this recording is
|
|
really important you may want to add an extra margin ;-)
|
|
|
|
The "Blue" button can be pressed to switch to the channel with the selected
|
|
programme.
|
|
|
|
* Selecting a Channel
|
|
|
|
There are four ways to select a channel:
|
|
|
|
1. With no On Screen Menu displayed press the "Up" or "Down" key to switch
|
|
to the next higher or lower channel.
|
|
2. Press the "Menu" button to bring up the On Screen Menu, select "Channels"
|
|
and browse through the list with the "Up" and "Down" key; to switch to the
|
|
selected channel press "Ok".
|
|
3. Directly type in the channel number with the numeric keys ('0'..'9');
|
|
if no key is pressed for about one second, the digits collected so
|
|
far will define the channel number.
|
|
4. From the "Now", "Next" and "Event" menus (accessible through the "Schedule"
|
|
menu) by pressing the "Blue" button.
|
|
|
|
Pressing the '0' key in normal viewing mode toggles between the current and
|
|
the previous channel.
|
|
|
|
After switching to a different channel the channel number and name, as well
|
|
as the current time are displayed at the top of the screen. If available, the
|
|
'current/next' information will be displayed below this line. This display
|
|
automatically goes away after about five seconds, or if any key is pressed.
|
|
To bring up the channel display without switching channels you can press
|
|
the "Ok" button.
|
|
|
|
* Selecting language specific audio track
|
|
|
|
If the current channel provides different audio tracks (typically for
|
|
different languages), the "Green" button in the "Main" menu can be pressed
|
|
to toggle between these. There can be two different audio PIDs per channel,
|
|
assuming that typically a channel broadcasts a country specific language
|
|
plus the movie's original soundtrack.
|
|
Recordings made form such channels will contain both audio tracks, and when
|
|
replaying the desired audio track can be selected the same way.
|
|
|
|
* Switching through channel groups
|
|
|
|
If the 'channels.conf' file contains "group separators" you can switch
|
|
through these groups by pressing the "Left" and "Right" key while no
|
|
menu is being displayed. The channel display will show the name of the
|
|
group, and if you press the "Ok" button while the group name is being
|
|
displayed, you will switch to the first channel of that group.
|
|
|
|
Channel groups can be whatever you decide them to be. You can either
|
|
group your channels by "Bouquet", by language, genre or whatever your
|
|
preferences may be.
|
|
|
|
* Instant Recording
|
|
|
|
You can start recording the current channel by pressing the "Red" button
|
|
in the "Main" menu. This will create a timer event named "@channelname" that
|
|
starts at the current time and records for two hours.
|
|
If you want to modify the recording time you need to edit the timer.
|
|
Stop instant recording by pressing the "Menu" button and selecting
|
|
"Stop Recording", or by disabling the timer.
|
|
|
|
* Replaying a Recording
|
|
|
|
All recordings are listed in the "Recordings" menu. Browse through the
|
|
list with the "Up" and "Down" button and press "Ok" (or the "Red" button)
|
|
to start playback. New recordings are marked with an '*'.
|
|
Playback can be stopped via the "Main" menu by selecting "Stop replaying",
|
|
or by pressing the "Blue" button outside the menu.
|
|
A previously stopped playback session can be resumed by pressing the "Blue"
|
|
button in the "Main" menu.
|
|
|
|
* Replay Control
|
|
|
|
The following keys have the listed meaning in Replay mode:
|
|
|
|
- Up Resumes normal replay from any "pause", "forward" or "backward"
|
|
mode.
|
|
- Down Halts playback at the current position. Press again to continue
|
|
playback.
|
|
- Blue Stops playback and stores the current position, so that
|
|
playback can be resumed later at that point.
|
|
- Left
|
|
Right Runs playback forward or backward at a higher speed; press
|
|
again to resume normal speed. If in Pause mode, runs forward or
|
|
backward at a slower speed; press again to return to pause mode.
|
|
Pressing and holding down the button performs the function until
|
|
the button is released again.
|
|
If "Multi Speed Mode" has been enabled in the "Setup" menu, the
|
|
function of these buttons changes in a way that gives you three
|
|
fast and slow speeds, through which you can switch by pressing
|
|
the respective button several times.
|
|
- Red Jump to a specific location. Enter the time you want to jump to
|
|
and then press "Left" or "Right" to jump relative to the current
|
|
position, "Up" to jump to an absolute position, and "Down" to
|
|
jump and pause at an absolute position.
|
|
- Green
|
|
Yellow Skips about 60 seconds back or forward.
|
|
Pressing and holding down the button performs the function until
|
|
the button is released again.
|
|
- Ok Brings up the replay progress display, which shows the date,
|
|
time and title of the recording, a progress bar and the
|
|
current and total time of the recording.
|
|
Press "Ok" again to turn off the progress display.
|
|
- Back Stops replaying and brings up the "Recordings" menu. This can be
|
|
used to easily delete a recording after watching it, or to switch
|
|
to a different recording.
|
|
|
|
* Editing a Recording
|
|
|
|
While in Replay mode, the following keys can be used to manipulate editing
|
|
marks:
|
|
|
|
- 0 Toggles an editing mark. If the mark indicator shows a red triangle,
|
|
the current mark is deleted. Otherwise a new mark is set at the
|
|
current position.
|
|
- 4, 6 Move an editing mark back and forward. You need to first jump to
|
|
an editing mark for this to work.
|
|
- 7, 9 Jump back and forward between editing marks. Replay goes into still
|
|
mode after jumping to a mark.
|
|
- 8 Positions replay at a point 3 seconds before the current or next
|
|
"start" mark and starts replay.
|
|
- 2 Start the actual cutting process.
|
|
|
|
Editing marks are represented by black, vertical lines in the progress display.
|
|
A small black triangle at the top of the mark means that this is a "start"
|
|
mark, and a triangle at the bottom means that this is an "end" mark.
|
|
The cutting process will save all video data between "start" and "end" marks
|
|
into a new file (the original recording remains untouched). The new file will
|
|
have the same name as the original recording, preceeded with a '%' character
|
|
(imagine the '%' somehow looking like a pair of scissors ;-). Red bars in the
|
|
progress display indicate which video sequences will be saved by the cutting
|
|
process.
|
|
|
|
The video sequences to be saved by the cutting process are determined by an
|
|
"even/odd" algorithm. This means that every odd numbered editing mark (i.e.
|
|
1, 3, 5,...) represents a "start" mark, while every even numbered mark (2, 4,
|
|
6,...) is an "end" mark. Inserting or toggling a mark on or off automatically
|
|
adjusts the sequence to the right side of that mark.
|
|
|
|
Use the keys described under "Replay Control" to position to, e.g., the
|
|
beginning and end of commercial breaks and press the '0' key to set the
|
|
necessary editing marks. After that you may want to use the '7' and '9'
|
|
keys to jump to each mark and maybe use the '4' and '6' keys to fine tune
|
|
them. Once all marks are in place, press '2' to start the actual cutting
|
|
process, which will run as a background process. When replaying the edited
|
|
version of the recording you can use the '8' key to jump to a point just
|
|
before the next cut and have a look at the resulting sequence.
|
|
|
|
Currently editing marks can only be set at I-frames, which typically is
|
|
every 12th frame. So editing can be done with a resolution of roughly half
|
|
a second. A "start" mark marks the first frame of a resulting video
|
|
sequence, and an "end" mark marks the last frame of that sequence.
|
|
|
|
* Programming the Timer
|
|
|
|
Use the "Timer" menu to maintain your list of timer controlled recordings.
|
|
The parameters in the "Edit Timer" menu have the following meanings:
|
|
|
|
Active: Defines whether the timer will be processed (set it to 'no' to
|
|
temporarily desable a timer).
|
|
Channel: The channel to be recorded (as defined in the "Channels" list).
|
|
Any changes made in the "Channels" list (like renaming or
|
|
reordering channels) will be automatically reflected in the
|
|
timers settings.
|
|
Day: The day on which this timer shall start. This can be either a
|
|
"day of month" (1..31), which allows programming a "single shot"
|
|
timer that hits once and is deleted after it ends. Single shot
|
|
timers can be programmed up to one month into the future.
|
|
Another option here are "repeating timers" which are defined
|
|
by listing the days of the week on which they shall record.
|
|
For example, a timer that shall record every monday and wednesday
|
|
would have a Day setting of "M-W----".
|
|
Start: The start time of the timer in hh:mm as 24 hour ("military") time.
|
|
Stop: The stop time of the timer.
|
|
Priority: The Priority (0..99) is used to decide which timer shall be
|
|
started in case there are two or more timers with the exact same
|
|
start time. The first timer in the list with the highest Priority
|
|
will be used. This value is also stored with the recording and is
|
|
later used to decide which recording to remove from disk in order
|
|
to free space for a new recording. If the disk is full and a new
|
|
recording needs more space, an existing recording with the lowest
|
|
Priority (and which has exceeded its guaranteed Lifetime) will be
|
|
removed. If all available DVB cards are currently occupied, a
|
|
timer with a higher priority will interrupt the timer with the
|
|
lowest priority in order to start recording.
|
|
Lifetime: The number of days (0..99) a recording made through this timer is
|
|
guaranteed to remain on disk before it is automatically removed
|
|
to free up space for a new recording. Note that setting this
|
|
parameter to very high values for all recordings may soon fill up
|
|
the entire disk and cause new recordings to fail due to low disk
|
|
space. The special value 99 means that this recording will live
|
|
"forever", and a value of 0 means that this recording can be
|
|
deleted any time if a recording with a higher priority needs disk
|
|
space.
|
|
File: The name under which a recording created through this timer will
|
|
be stored on disk (the actual name will also contain the date and
|
|
time, so it is possible to have a "repeating timer" store all its
|
|
recordings under the same name; they will be distinguishable by
|
|
their date and time).
|
|
If the file name contains the special character '~', the recording
|
|
will be stored in a hierarchical directory structure. For instance,
|
|
a file name of "Sci-Fi~Star Trek~Voyager" will result in a directory
|
|
structure "/video/Sci-Fi/Star_Trek/Voyager". The '~' character has
|
|
been chosen for this since the file system's directory delimiter '/'
|
|
may be part of a regular programme name.
|
|
Repeating timers create recordings that contain the 'Subtitle'
|
|
information from the EPG data in their file name. Typically (on tv
|
|
stations that care about their viewers) this contains the episode
|
|
title of a series. The subtitle is appended to the timer's file name,
|
|
separated by a '~' character, so that it results in all recordings
|
|
of this timer being collected in a common subdirectory.
|
|
If this field is left blank, the channel name will be used to form
|
|
the name of the recording.
|
|
|
|
A timer can also be programmed by pressing the "Red" button on the "Schedule",
|
|
"Now", "Next" or "Event" menus.
|
|
|
|
* Stopping a recording on the primary DVB interface
|
|
|
|
If the primary DVB interface is currently recording, the user can't switch
|
|
the channel or replay another recording on that interface. However, if there
|
|
is an other DVB interface that is currently not recording and provides the
|
|
necessary conditional access facilities to continue the recording that is
|
|
currently being performed on the primary DVB interface, the Main menu will
|
|
contain an option that allows you to stop recording on the primary DVB
|
|
interface. Select that option to stop the ongoing recording and thus free the
|
|
primary DVB interface to allow channel switching or replaying. The interrupted
|
|
recording will be continued on an other free DVB interface. There may be a
|
|
short discontinuity at that point when replaying that recording later, so you
|
|
may want to place such an action for instance in a commercial break.
|
|
|
|
* Parameters in the "Setup" menu
|
|
|
|
Select "Setup" from the "Main" menu to enter the setup menu. From there you can
|
|
modify the following system parameters (note that "boolean" values will be
|
|
displayed as "no" and "yes" in the "Setup" menu, while in the setup file they
|
|
are stored as '0' and '1', respectively):
|
|
|
|
OSDLanguage = 0 Defines the language used to display the OSD texts.
|
|
0 = Englisch
|
|
1 = Deutsch
|
|
2 = Slovenian
|
|
3 = Italian
|
|
4 = Dutch
|
|
5 = Portugese
|
|
6 = French
|
|
7 = Norwegian
|
|
|
|
PrimaryDVB = 1 Defines the primary DVB interface (i.e. the one that
|
|
will display the menus and will react on input through
|
|
the remote control). Valid values range from '1' to the
|
|
number of installed DVB cards. If more than one DVB card
|
|
is installed and a recording is to be started, the
|
|
program will try to use a free DVB card that is different
|
|
from the primary DVB interface, so that the viewer will
|
|
be disturbed as little as possible.
|
|
|
|
ShowInfoOnChSwitch = 1 Turns the display of the current/next information on
|
|
or off when switching the channel. The information is
|
|
always displayed when pressing the "Ok" button in
|
|
normal viewing mode.
|
|
|
|
MenuScrollPage = 1 0 = when pressing the "Down" ("Up") key while the cursor
|
|
is on the last (first) line of a list page, the
|
|
list is advanced by a full page and the cursor will
|
|
be at the top (bottom) of that page
|
|
1 = dto., but the cursor remains at the bottom (top) of
|
|
the page (this mode allows for faster scrolling
|
|
through long lists).
|
|
|
|
MarkInstantRecord = 1 Defines whether an "instant recording" (started by
|
|
pressing the "Red" button in the "Main" menu) will be
|
|
marked with a '@' character to make it distinguishable
|
|
from timer recordings in the "Recordings" menu.
|
|
0 = instant recordings will not be marked
|
|
1 = instant recordings will be marked.
|
|
|
|
LnbSLOF = 11700 The switching frequency (in MHz) between low and high LOF
|
|
LnbFrequLo = 9750 The LNB's low and high local oscillator frequencies (in MHz)
|
|
LnbFrequHi = 10600 (these have no meaning for DVB-C receivers)
|
|
|
|
DiSEqC = 1 Generally turns DiSEqC support on or off.
|
|
0 = disabled
|
|
1 = enabled
|
|
|
|
SetSystemTime = 0 Defines whether the system time will be set according to
|
|
the time received from the DVB data stream.
|
|
0 = system time will not be set
|
|
1 = system time wil be set
|
|
Note that this works only if VDR is running under a user
|
|
id that has permisson to set the system time.
|
|
|
|
MarginStart = 2 Defines how many minutes before the official start time
|
|
MarginStop = 10 of a broadcast VDR shall start recording, and how long
|
|
after the official end time it shall stop recording.
|
|
|
|
EPGScanTimeout = 5 The time (in hours) of user inactivity after which the
|
|
DVB card in a single card system starts scanning channels
|
|
to keep the EPG up-to-date.
|
|
A value of '0' completely turns off scanning on both single
|
|
and multiple card systems.
|
|
|
|
EPGBugfixLevel = 2 Some tv stations transmit weirdly formatted EPG data.
|
|
VDR attempts to fix these bugs up to the given level:
|
|
0 = no EPG fixing
|
|
1 = basic fixing of text location (Title, Subtitle and
|
|
Extended Description)
|
|
2 = removal of excess whitespace and hyphens, mapping of
|
|
wrongly used characters
|
|
3 = fixing the date in timestamps between 00:00 and 06:00
|
|
(use with care - hopefully one day Pro7 and Kabel1
|
|
will learn how to read the clock/calender)
|
|
Default is '2', which will do all textual fixes, but
|
|
leaves out the timestamp fixes, since these might cause
|
|
recordings to fail. Use '3' at your own risk.
|
|
Note that after changing the setting of this parameter
|
|
any EPG data that has already been received will remain
|
|
in its existing format - only newly received data will
|
|
be fixed accordingly. Restart VDR if you want to make sure
|
|
all data is fixed.
|
|
|
|
SVDRPTimeout = 300 The time (in seconds) of inactivity on an open SVDRP
|
|
connection after which the connection is automatically
|
|
closed. Default is 300, a value of 0 means no timeout.
|
|
|
|
SortTimers = 1 Turns sorting the timers in the "Timers" menu on/off.
|
|
Timers are sorted by ascending start times, with the
|
|
first one being the next timer that will start.
|
|
|
|
PrimaryLimit = 0 The minimum priority a timer must have to be allowed to
|
|
use the primary DVB interface, or to force another timer
|
|
with higher priority to use the primary DVB interface.
|
|
This is mainly useful for recordings that should take
|
|
place only when there is nothing else to do, but should
|
|
never keep the user from viewing stuff on the primary
|
|
interface. On systems with only one DVB card, timers
|
|
with a priority below PrimaryLimit will never execute.
|
|
|
|
DefaultPriority = 50 The default Priority and Lifetime values used when
|
|
DefaultLifetime = 50 creating a new timer event. A Lifetime value of 99
|
|
means that this recording will never be deleted
|
|
automatically.
|
|
|
|
UseSubtitle = 1 Repeating timers use the EPG's 'Subtitle' information to
|
|
create recording file names in a hierarchical structure
|
|
(for instance to gather all episodes of a series in a
|
|
common subdirectory). This parameter can be used to
|
|
control this.
|
|
0 = don't use the 'Subtitle'
|
|
1 = use it (and create subdirectories)
|
|
|
|
VideoFormat = 0 The video format (or aspect ratio) of the tv set in use.
|
|
0 = 4:3
|
|
1 = 16:9
|
|
|
|
ChannelInfoPos = 0 The position of the channel info window in the OSD.
|
|
0 = bottom
|
|
1 = top
|
|
|
|
OSDwidth = 52 The width and height of the OSD .
|
|
OSDheight = 18 The valid ranges are width=40...56, height=12...21.
|
|
|
|
OSDMessageTime = 1 The time (in seconds) how long an informational
|
|
message shall be displayed on the OSD. The valid range
|
|
is 1...60.
|
|
|
|
MaxVideoFileSize=2000 The maximum size of a single recorded video file in MB.
|
|
The valid range is 100...2000. Default is 2000, but
|
|
you may want to use smaller values if you are planning
|
|
on archiving a recording to CD.
|
|
|
|
SplitEditedFiles = 0 During the actual editing process VDR writes the result
|
|
into files that may grow up to MaxVideoFileSize. If you
|
|
prefer to have each marked sequence stored in a separate
|
|
file (named 001.vdr, 002.vdr, ...) you can set this
|
|
option to 1.
|
|
|
|
MinEventTimeout=30 If the command line option '-s' has been set, VDR will
|
|
MinUserInactivity=120 automatically shutdown the computer if the next timer
|
|
event is at least MinEventTimeout minutes in the future,
|
|
and the user has been inactive for at least
|
|
MinUserInactivity minutes. Setting MinUserInactivity
|
|
to 0 disables the automatic shutdown, while still
|
|
retaining the possibility to manually shutdown the
|
|
computer.
|
|
|
|
MultiSpeedMode = 0 Defines the function of the "Left" and "Right" keys in

|
* Executing system commands
|
|
|
|
The "Main" menu option "Commands" allows you to execute any system commands
|
|
defined in the configuration file 'commands.conf' (see FORMATS for details).
|
|
The "Commands" option will only be present in the "Main" menu if a valid
|
|
'commands.conf' file containing at least one command definition has been
|
|
found at program start.
|
|
|
|
This feature can be used to do virtually anything, like checking for new
|
|
mail, displaying the CPU temperature - you name it! All you need to do is
|
|
enter the necessary command definition into 'commands.conf' and implement
|
|
the actual command that will be called. Such a command can typically be a
|
|
shell script or a Perl program. Anything that command writes to stdout will
|
|
be displayed on a result screen after executing the command. This screen will
|
|
use a 'fixed' font so that you can generate formatted output. In order to
|
|
avoid error messages going to stderr, command definitions should redirect
|
|
stderr to stdout (see FORMATS).
|
|
|
|
WARNING: THE COMMANDS DEFINED IN 'commands.conf' WILL BE EXECUTED UNDER THE
|
|
======= SAME USER ID THAT VDR IS RUNNING WITH. BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN
|
|
DEFINING THESE COMMANDS AND MAKE SURE THEY DON'T HARM YOUR SYSTEM,
|
|
ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE RUNNING VDR UNDER A HIGH PRIVILEGED USER ID
|
|
(LIKE 'root').
