[vdr] Updating actuator plugin

Luca,
It is just to remind you that vdr is updated (1.7.27 is now), and that
impossible to compile actuator plugin against new vdr. I do like your
plugin, it very useful for channel's scanning. It is better than other
scanner pluging I tried. Pls, find some time! ;-)

Regards,

Yarema

Hi Luca,
Maybe it is a right time to update your actuator plugin. There are some

changes in vdr-1.7.23, it is enough to change SystemValues to
SystemValuesSat to compile vdr-actuator against the last vdr-1.7.23, or

sed -i -e "s/SystemValues/SystemValuesSat/" actuator.c

I'm still using 1.7.21, not much time to upgrade vdr right now.

I'm really sorry, but I have even less time now :-(
I think I won't have time to touch this at least until summer.

Where is the latest actuator plugin source? It should be fairly easy
to rebase it on top of 1.7.27 api changes.

It was trivial to make the SystemValuesSat update that you suggested,
but of course, this still needs VDR to be patched with the rotor patch
that adds cDvbTuner::SendDiseqcCmd to dvbdevice.c

https://github.com/oldmanuk/rotorng/

Has anyone asked Klaus to accept the rotor patch (rebased onto vanilla
VDR sources) or for him to provide his own implementation of a public
method on dvbdevice for sending diseqc commands from plugins?

I managed to build actuator plugin. As it was stated by Klaus, "Any plugins
that implement cStatus::ChannelSwitch() need to add the parameter 'bool
LiveView' to that function." So it is enough to add "bool LiveView" , for
details please see my PKGBUILD
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=42711.

Cool!, I hope to remember it when I'll have the time to update the plugin.

Ah I realise now that someone sent me the rotorng sources rather than
the actuator plugin.

Which is the superior of these two?
