1.1 yavdr-full

A User wants to install yaVDR without customization and relies on full automation.

After installing a supported Ubuntu Server version and (if needed) setting up the network connection, the install script is downloaded and started.

The install script adds the ansible PPA, installs ansible and other basic dependencies and runs the automated installation process.

Several roles are used to tie everything together:

yavdr-common
installs the basic set of packages needed and preconfigures the system (package sources, package manager settings, entires for network ports, directory structure etc.). Also collects information about the system
autoinstall-ubuntu-drivers
uses Ubuntu’s automatic detection for additional drivers (e.g. proprietary nvidia driver, microcode updates, VirtualBox guest additions)
vdr
install the vdr package and required plugins
pulseaudio
install and preconfigure pulseaudio
yavdr-network
configure WOL, add nfs client capabilites, install avahi-linker
samba-server
install and preconfigure a samba server
nfs-server
install nfs-kernelserver and preconfigure nfs exports (and avahi-announcements)
autoinstall-satip
install vdr-plugin-satip if a Sat>IP server has been found
autoinstall-targavfd
install vdr-plugin-targavfd if display is connected
autoinstall-imonlcd
install vdr-plugin-imonlcd if a matchind display is connected
yavdr-xorg
install and configure a systemd user session with a running X-server. A frontend script will manage VDR’s frontend and other applications like KODI. Also choose the best possible output plugin.
grub-config
update grub configuration based on executed roles

1.1.1 Using vdr, pulseaudio and xorg together

2 Notes

:export nil

2.1 TODO optimize and document data structure for xorg parsing script

2.2 TODO xorg.conf templates for intel, nvidia, noveau and radeon drivers

2.2.1 STARTED BusID für (nvidia) Grafikkarten aus lspci auslesen

Format: „%d:%d:%d“ (lspci liefert es als „%04x:%02x:%02x.%x“, domain, bus, device, function)

  • Wie mit mehreren GPUs umgehen? Priorität bzw. Reihenfolge?
  • Was ist mit NVidia Optimus/Bumblebee (AFAIK keine VDPAU-Funktionalität)?
  • Wie BusID der xrandr-Ausgabe zuordnen?

2.2.2 NVIDIA-Dokumentation zur BusID:

  1. What is the format of a PCI Bus ID?

    Different tools have different formats for the PCI Bus ID of a PCI device.

    The X server’s „BusID“ X configuration file option interprets the BusID string in the format „bus@domain:device:function“ (the „@domain“ portion is only needed if the PCI domain is non-zero), in decimal. More specifically,

    „%d@%d:%d:%d“, bus, domain, device, function in printf(3) syntax. NVIDIA X driver logging, nvidia-xconfig, and nvidia-settings match the X configuration file BusID convention.

    The lspci(8) utility, in contrast, reports the PCI BusID of a PCI device in the format „domain:bus:device.function“, printing the values in hexadecimal. More specifically,

    „%04x:%02x:%02x.%x“, domain, bus, device, function in printf(3) syntax. The „Bus Location“ reported in the /proc/driver/nvidia/gpus/0..N/information files matches the lspci format.

  2. Parsen der /proc/driver/nvidia/gpus/*/information Dateien
    # read the BusID for nvidia cards and the model name
    # from the /proc/driver/nvidia/gpus/*/information file(s)
    from __future__ import print_function
    import glob
    import re
    
    BusID_RE = re.compile((
        '(?P<domain>[0-9a-fA-F]+)'
        ':'
        '(?P<bus>[0-9a-fA-F]+)'
        ':'
        '(?P<device>[0-9a-fA-F]+)'
        '\.'
        '(?P<function>[0-9a-fA-F]+)'
    ))
    Model_RE = re.compile('Model:\s+(.*)')
    
    def get_BusIDs():
        for gpu_info in glob.glob('/proc/driver/nvidia/gpus/*/information'):
            with open(gpu_info) as f:
                data = f.read()
            match = BusID_RE.search(data)
            if match:
                BusID = "{:d}@{:d}:{:d}:{:d}".format(*(int(n, 16) for n in match.groups()))
                yield BusID, Model_RE.match(data).groups()[0]
    if __name__ == '__main__':
        BusIDs = [BusID for BusID in get_BusIDs()]
        print(BusIDs)
    

2.3 TODO plan for customization of xorg settings by the user

either directly or using a configuration wizard or a web frontend

2.4 SOMEDAY select best frontend based on GPU

intel
softhddevice-vpp
amd
softhddevice-vpp
nvidia
softhddevice-openglosd (if no HEVC channels are needed)

3 Introduction

One of the major problems we faced with customized Ubuntu ISO files as installation media for prior yaVDR versions has been the limited hardware support and the time consuming process to create and update them. An interesting alternative to this approach is to enable the user to choose the installation medium himself so point releases, kernel versions and additional drivers can be chosen deliberately. After the basic setup is complete (and a working internet connection is available), a fully customizable install script completes the yaVDR installation.

4 Installing and configuring yaVDR with Ansible

This is an experimental feature which allows to set up a yaVDR installation based on a normal Ubuntu Server 16.04.x installation using Ansible.

This Manual is written in org-mode for Emacs and can rewrite the complete ansible configuration if you call org-babel-tangle from within emacs.

To use this playbook on a Ubuntu Server Installation you need to run the following commands:

sudo apt-get install git
git clone https://github.com/yavdr/yavdr-ansible.git
cd yavdr-ansible
sudo ./install-yavdr.sh

4.1 Install script for local usage

if (( $EUID != 0 )); then
    echo "This script must be run using sudo or as root"
    exit
fi

apt-get -y install software-properties-common
# Add repository for ansible
add-apt-repository -y ppa:ansible/ansible
# update packages
apt-get update
# install required packages
apt-get -y install ansible

# TODO: run ansible on local host
ansible-playbook yavdr07.yml -b -i 'localhost_inventory' --connection=local

8.3 yavdr-common

This role is used to set up a basic yaVDR installation. It creates the directories, installs the vdr and other useful packages.

8.3.1 default variables

This section is for reference only, please use the files in global_vars for customizations.

---

# file: roles/yavdr-common/defaults/main.yml
  1. Repositories

    You can set a list of package repositories which provide the necessary packages. Feel free to use own PPAs if you need special customization to the VDR and it’s plugins.

    branch: unstable
    repositories:
      - 'ppa:yavdr/main'
      - 'ppa:yavdr/unstable-main'
      - 'ppa:yavdr/{{branch}}-vdr'
      - 'ppa:yavdr/{{branch}}-kodi'
      - 'ppa:yavdr/{{branch}}-yavdr'
    
  2. Drivers

    Automatically installed drivers can be very useful, but if you know you need a certain driver, you can simply set it’s value to true. If you don’t want a driver to be installed, set it’s value to false.

    drivers:
      sundtek: auto
      ddvb-dkms: auto
    
  3. Additional Packages

    Add additional packages you would like to have on your installation to this list

      extra_packages:
          - vim
          - tree
          - w-scan
    
  4. VDR

    This section allows you to set the recording directory, the user and group that runs the vdr and it’s home directory.

    user
    the vdr user name
    group
    the main group for the user vdr
    uid
    the user id for the user vdr
    gid
    the group id for the group vdr
    home
    the home directory for the user vdr
    recdir
    the recording directory used by VDR
    hide_first_recording_level
    let vdr hide the first directory level of it’s recording directory so the content of multiple directories is shown merged together
    safe_dirnames
    replace special characters which are not compatible with Windows file systems and Samba shares
    override_vdr_charset
    workaround for channels with weird EPG encodings, e.g. Sky
    vdr:
        user: vdr
        group: vdr
        uid: 666
        gid: 666
        home: /var/lib/vdr
