Autor: Thorsten Scheck

Sortiert Kanäle nach den Vorgaben der Konfigurations-Datei (autosort.conf). Sortierkriterien können alle Eigenschaften eines Kanals sein (z. B. Name, Audiosprache, etc.). Damit können neue Kanäle und solche, deren Kennungen sich ändern, automatisch an die richtige Stelle einsortiert werden. Man kann sowohl die komplette Liste als auch nur Teile davon automatisch sortieren lassen.

Konfiguration

Es wird davon ausgegangen, dass das Plugin bereits entpackt und verlinkt wurde, siehe Plugin Installation. Hiermit wird die (anzupassende) Konfig.-Datei an die richtige Stelle geschoben:

cp $SOURCEDIR/VDR/PLUGINS/src/autosort/autosort.conf $VDRCONFIG/plugins

Probleme

Zur Zeit (6/2007) gibt es eine Version 0.1.3, die zum erstenmal komplett im Hintergrund läuft (threading) und mehrere Konfig.-Dateien verwenden kann. Leider hat diese Version ein paar Probleme. So kommt es zu Problemen, wenn das $VDRCONFIG-Verzeichnis an einer anderen Stelle liegt als das $VIDEODIR-Verzeichnis

Versions-Historie

Version Datum Beschreibung Link
0.1.3 18.03.2007
  • added debugging-messages to cAutoGroup::ChannelFitsGroup, switch on by uncommenting the '#define DEBUG_CFG' statement in autogroup.c if you like/need
  • extended 'ICanSee' to (HasOpenProvider || HasNoCa || HasOpenCa).
  • fixed saving menuValues and lastTimeStamp
  • fixed crashing after last channel
  • added some statistics about running time and estimated end into setup menu
  • fixed some big mem-leaks (thanks to Tobias Grimm for his script and patch)

0.1.2 26.03.2006
  • rewrote the setupmenu

  • implemented [Open|Closed][Ca|Provider]. Config file is /video/plugins/autosort/opengroups.conf
  • changed to dynamic structured multi-option-lists. There is no more limit for multi-options now. (as suggested by Sami J. Maekiner)
  • added script "createopengroups.pl" that generates two files "opengroups.conf.template[1|2]" from channels.conf. Both contain the same data just in different sortion. Take the one you like.
  • moved ChannelFitGroup() and ModifyChannelToGroup() into cAutoGroup.
  • added new option 'ICanSee' which is (HasOpenProvider || HasNoCa).

0.0.10 25.03.2006

  • fixed a missing = in Print()-function (Thanks to Trois Six for reporting that).
  • added missing check for 'HasApid' in cAutoGroup::Parse() (got lost in 0.0.9)
[1]

  • Now using a #define for the maximum number of multiple options. Default set to 64, increase it if you need.

0.0.8 09.12.2005
  • Added setting TimeStamps and option 'TimeStamp' to catch channels that haven't updated for some days.

  • Housekeeping will be interrupted by any remote key now
  • Implemented 'SetCaFF' and 'SetCa0'. You need the patch to delete Ca special values (autosort will tell you)

  • Changed Group-sorting on startup, it's a bit quicker now.
