--------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* channels.conf
|
|
|
|
This file contains the channel setup.
|
|
It consists of two types of lines: "group delimiters" and "channel
|
|
definitions".
|
|
|
|
A "group delimiter" is a line starting with a ':' as the very first
|
|
character, followed by arbitrary text.
|
|
Example: ":First group"
|
|
|
|
A "channel definition" is a line with channel data, where the fields
|
|
are separated by ':' characters:
|
|
Example: "RTL:12188:h:1:27500:163:104:105:0:12003"
|
|
|
|
The fields in a channel definition have the following meaning (from left
|
|
to right):
|
|
|
|
- Name: the channel's name (if the name originally contains a ':' character
|
|
it has to be replaced by '|')
|
|
- Frequency in MHz (as an integer)
|
|
- Polarization (one of 'h', 'H', 'v', 'V') **
|
|
- Diseqc number **
|
|
- Symbol rate
|
|
- Video PID
|
|
- Audio PID (either one number, or two, separated by a comma)
|
|
- Teletext PID
|
|
- Conditional Access (0 = Free To Air, 1 = can be decrypted by the first
|
|
DVB card, 2 = can be decrypted by the second DVB card)
|
|
- Program Number
|
|
|
|
Fields marked with ** are only meaningful for DVB-S (satellite) receivers.
|
|
DVB-C receivers simply ignore these.
|
|
|
|
* timers.conf
|
|
|
|
This file contains the timer setup.
|
|
|
|
The fields in a timer definition have the following meaning (from left
|
|
to right):
|
|
|
|
- Timer active (0 = inactive, 1 = active)
|
|
Values larger than '1' can be used by external programs to mark active timers
|
|
and recognize if the user has modified them. When a user modifes an active
|
|
timer the 'active' field will be explicitly set to '1'.
|
|
- Program number of the channel to record
|
|
- Day of recording, either one or more of
|
|
M------ = Monday
|
|
-T----- = Tuesday
|
|
--W---- = Wednesday
|
|
---T--- = Thrusday
|
|
----F-- = Friday
|
|
-----S- = Saturday
|
|
------S = Sunday
|
|
(any combination is possible, for example MTWTF--, and the days may be
|
|
indicated by any characters except '-', so for example ABC---- would set
|
|
a timer that records on monday, tuesday and wednesday) or the "day of month"
|
|
(1..31)
|
|
- Start time (first two digits for the hour, second two digits for the minutes)
|
|
- End time (first two digits for the hour, second two digits for the minutes)
|
|
- Priority (from 0 to 99, 0 = lowest prioity, 99 = highest priority)
|
|
- Guaranteed lifetime of recording (in days); 0 means that this recording may
|
|
be automatically deleted by a new recording with higher priority, 99 means
|
|
that this recording will never be automatically deleted
|
|
- Name of timer (will be used to name the recording); if the name contains
|
|
any ':' characters, these have to be replaced with '|'
|
|
- Summary (any newline characters in the summary have to be replaced with '|';
|
|
the summary may contain ':' characters)
|
|
|
|
* setup.conf
|
|
|
|
This file contains the basic configuration options for VDR.
|
|
|
|
Each line contains one option in the format "Name = Value".
|
|
|
|
See the MANUAL file for a description of the available options.
|
|
|
|
* commands.conf
|
|
|
|
This file contains the definitions of commands that can be executed from
|
|
the "Main" menus "Commands" option.
|
|
|
|
Each line contains one command definition in the following format:
|
|
|
|
title : command
|
|
|
|
where 'title' is the string the will be displayed in the "Commands" menu,
|
|
and 'command' is the actual command string that will be executed when this
|
|
option is selected. The delimiting ':' may be surrounded by any number of
|
|
white space characters.
|
|
|
|
In order to avoid error messages to stderr, every command should have
|
|
stderr redirected to stdout. Everything the command prints to stdout will
|
|
be displayed in a result window, with 'title' as its title.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
|
|
1 Check for new mail: /usr/local/bin/checkmail 2>&1
|
|
2 CPU status : /usr/loval/bin/cpustatus 2>&1
|
|
3 Disk space : df -h | grep '/video' | awk '{ print 100 - $5 "% free"; }'
|
|
|
|
If the first non-blank character of the 'title' is a digit in the range
|
|
1..9, the command can be selected directly by pressing the respective numerical
|
|
key on the remote control.
|
|
|
|
* marks.vdr
|
|
|
|
This file (if present in a recording directory) contains the editing marks
|
|
defined for this recording.
|
|
|
|
Each line contains the definition of one mark in the following format:
|
|
|
|
hh:mm:ss.ff comment
|
|
|
|
where 'hh:mm:ss.ff' is a frame position within the recording, given as "hours,
|
|
minutes, seconds and (optional) frame number". 'comment' can be any string
|
|
and may be used to describe this mark. If present, 'comment' must be separated
|
|
from the frame position by at least one blank.
|
|
|
|
The lines in this file need not necessarily appear in the correct temporal
|
|
sequence, they will be automatically sorted by time index.
|
|
|
|
CURRENT RESTRICTIONS:
|
|
|
|
- the 'comment' is currently not used by VDR
|
|
- marks must have a frame number, and that frame MUST be an I-frame (this
|
|
means that only marks generated by VDR itself can be used, since they
|
|
will always be guaranteed to mark I-frames).
