This is a "patch" for the Video Disk Recorder (VDR). Written by: Frank Schmirler Project's homepage: http://vdr.schmirler.de/ Latest version available at: http://vdr.schmirler.de/volctrl/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This patch enables volume control with the left/right of your remote control. Note that the feature is disabled by default. Enabled it in OSD menu Setup > Miscellaneous. Applying the patch: cd /path/to/VDR/ patch -p1 < vdr-1.X.X-lr_volctrl.diff Setup options: - Volume ctrl with left/right Enables the patch. Actually changes the behaviour of left/right while the volume bar is shown. In case you have exactly one spare key on your remote, you could define a key macro for this key to open the volume bar and then use left/right to adjust the volume. - Channelgroups with left/right Affects the behaviour of left/right while watching live TV. yes: Default VDR behaviour. No volume control with left/right only in channelinfo: While channelinfo is open, left/right will switch channelgroups (hit OK to display channelinfo if not visible). Otherwise left/right controls the volume (hit OK to close channelinfo if it is currently visible). no: You will loose the channelgroup feature. Left/right will always control the volume - Search fwd/back with left/right Affects the behaviour of left/right during replay. yes: Default VDR behaviour. No volume control with left/right only in progress display: While progress bar is shown, left/right controls speed and direction (hit OK to display progress bar if not visible). Otherwise left/right controls the volume (hit OK to close progress bar if it is currently visible). no: You will loose the ability to search with left/right. Makes sense if your remote control has dedicated keys for this. ------------------------------------------------------------------------
