[xine-user] Recording with Xine

[<dav...@ma...>]

Hello:

I am using a Nova-T USB DVB device (TTUSB-BUDGET) and Xine to watch TV =
on my Suse 8.2 - 2.4.20 box. =20

Because the Nova-T is a budget device, I have not been able to use VDR =
to record or watch programmes, and have not had success using the new =
Xine - VDR plugin or the XVXINE plugin.

Since Xine can pause live television - (this feature works perfectly for =
me), I am wondering how difficult it would be to add a recording =
functionality to Xine, since it must be cacheing the video somewhere in =
time-shift.

Has anyone worked on this or successfully been able to record in xine? =20

Where does Xine normally cache video during pause and time shift?

Other than VDR, can anyone suggest any other programmes that can record =
MPEG2 video from live DVB stream? =20

I am going to try setting up WebVCR+ and Mencoder again, but was not too =
successful last time in terms of video quality...

Thanks for any advice or suggestions.

Best,

David
