Feature request: VDR support #3
Comments
Do you have any examples of an app like this? |
obs studio records audio and video of whatever is on the current desktop... i use it for streaming games to twitch. |
@LizziAS: I don't think were are talking about the same idea VDR is a Linux PVR application for the DVB standard that can run as server and allows clients to set timers, get EPG data, channel names and also stream the MPEG transport stream of a station live over http (using the streamdev-plugin). This way every client can set timers and watch TV without the need for a DVB device and being switched during the record. This is also a very simple way for the client, implementing all the parts of DVB would be a lot of work (from parsing all data, managing the devices and channels, support for conditional access etc.), here it is just accessing an MPEG transport stream and a simple control protocol, VDR will do the rest. |
It would be great if Hypnotix could work as VDR streamdev client: VDR (video disk recorder) is very popular Linux PVR application for DVB devices (not sure if any ATSC or ISDB standard is supported) that also allows streaming and remote control.
The stream is an MPEG-2 transport stream via http as received (so just standard codecs) , that's the easy part, but great would be EPG, manage timers, etc. I would really like that as an application (scroll lists, context menus etc.) and not as video overlay.
