Users / Re: How to use a remote VDR system

Thanks for the hint, but I already searched this locations but I didn't find anything useful.

I found something in log files that looks pretty good to find the right thing to change.

/var/log/pluto/33_VDR.log:

Code: [Select]

== ATTEMPT FRESH START ==
1       01/29/10 18:14:32       Spawn_Device.sh 33 (spawning-device)    19907 Dev: 33; Already Running list: 15,16,18,19,29,30,21,
== FRESH START ==
1       01/29/10 18:14:32       Spawn_Device.sh 33 (spawning-device)    device: 33 ip: 127.0.0.1 cmd_line: VDR
3       01/29/10 18:14:32       Spawn_Device.sh 33 (spawning-device)    Can't execute VDR


and for the md /usr/pluto/diskless/34/var/log/pluto/42_VDR.log:

Code: [Select]

== ATTEMPT FRESH START ==
1       01/29/10 18:51:38       Spawn_Device.sh 42 (spawning-device)    9986 Dev: 42; Already Running list: 35,36,38,43,39,
== FRESH START ==
1       01/29/10 18:51:39       Spawn_Device.sh 42 (spawning-device)    device: 42 ip: 192.168.1.2 cmd_line: VDR
3       01/29/10 18:51:39       Spawn_Device.sh 42 (spawning-device)    Can't execute VDR


Of course, the "Can't execute VDR" doesn't look that nice but you can see that the ip for the core is localhost and the ip for the md ist the ip of the core (192.168.1.2). My guess is that I have to change the ip for all cases to 192.168.1.1 (my VDR server). But i have no idea where this comes from...

On my server runs version 1.7.7 of vdr. The change to the ts format was before this version, so I don't think this would be a problem.

Hello,

I am pretty new to linux MCE. I already have a VDR server with 3 DVB-S2 cards running and this server should exist beside the linux MCE server. As far as I have seen linuxMCE uses the xine plugin to connect to the local VDR. So I think it should be no problem to connect to another VDR server and not to the local hosted VDR. I searched in the config files where I could change the ip address for vdr but I didn't find anything.

So I hope that someone can give me a kick in the right direction, where to change the IP of the VDR which xine is connecting to.

Thanks in advance.
