Description

I use xbmc with vdr in headless with the xineliboutput plugin in remote mode. When I run vdr with skinflatplus I have this error:

skinflatplus: No TrueColor OSD found! Aborting!

I think it's because it launches OSD because learning the keys process within xine fronted active.
Would it be possible to add a parameter to deactivate the test True Color to start VDR ?

If I run directly vdr with xineliboutput in local mode it work fine.

Sure is this possible, can you please test it and give feedback if it works?
You can test it by comment out the lines 85-89 in file skinflatplus.c

Thank You!

I was afraid of this. The skin need true color osd. Therefore, the if condition.
What is vdr with xineliboutput in remote mode? I also have a vdr server and client. On both side with softhddevice and streamdev. The Server starts softhddevice deattached. If I need tv on the server I attach softhddevice. Maybe that's an alternative for you!?

Greetings
Martin

thank you for your answer.
I actually use xlo in remote operation
I tried with VDR softhddevice it works but I have problems with my remote control. I have to choose between my remote and skinflatplus !

There's a xineliboutput supporting true color osd available, yaVDR and I have in our PPAs:

https://launchpad.net/~fnu/+archive/testing-vdr-fnu/+packages?field.name_filter=xineliboutput&field.status_filter=published&field.series_filter=

But still don't get how somebody can try to use a true color skin with a non capable video output ... I would close that issue immediately ...

Thanks fnu.
I applied the patch "truecolor.diff" on xineliboutput plugin and now skinflatplus work properly.
Now I launch xlo plugin with the -t option for the support of True Color OSD if no client is connected.
