Another couple of things:
Since it cannot parse channels.conf, I cannot say how it manages live-view.
Does it handle dvb subtitles either/or with live view/recordings?
- it chokes with channels with an & in the name (streamdev correctly escapes them with & )
Code:Illegal character '&' in raw string "CHASSE & PECHE" Line: Position: Last 80 unconsumed characters: </a> <a href="http://192.168.10.13:3000/PS/S13.0E-318-15900-204+1">()</a> </li>^M Backtrace: /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rexml/parsers/treeparser.rb:89:in `parse' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rexml/document.rb:190:in `build' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rexml/document.rb:45:in `initialize' /home/vdr/kserver/lib/components/scanner.rb:199:in `new' /home/vdr/kserver/lib/components/scanner.rb:199:in `scan_dir' /home/vdr/kserver/lib/components/scanner.rb:92:in `each' /home/vdr/kserver/lib/components/scanner.rb:92:in `scan_dir' /home/vdr/kserver/lib/components/scanner.rb:57:in `scan' ./lib/server.rb:39:in `call' ./lib/server.rb:39:in `serve' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/gserver.rb:211:in `start' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/gserver.rb:208:in `initialize' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/gserver.rb:208:in `new' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/gserver.rb:208:in `start' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/gserver.rb:198:in `initialize' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/gserver.rb:198:in `new' /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/gserver.rb:198:in `start' ./knots:20:in `start' ./knots:12:in `detach' ./knots:10:in `fork' ./knots:10:in `detach' ./knots:70
- I don't like to see individual vdr files (I know nothing about perl but I added something to mediaserv to show a single recording, I know even less about ruby though, so I won't do it)
- not a problem with knots (maybe vlc, I don't know), but it's easily fooled if a recording changes aspect ratio, it seems it decides it based on the beginning of the recording. This somewhat spoils my recordings of the avengers on bbc4 (they're 4:3 but the preceding programme is 16:9)
Since it cannot parse channels.conf, I cannot say how it manages live-view.

I tried adding all recording files to a playlist, but it still stops the streaming when it changes it so it's pretty much useless. It's not that annoying to select the 001.vdr and 002.vdr imo
As for the aspect ratio, that's a VLC thing. Maybe you can make a different transcode profile for those?
If streamdev-server shows the subtitles, then they work with knots. It just streams the http stream through VLC.
Did VDR metadata show up ok?
EDIT: Try updating the server and see where it stops next. Can you contact me some other way with these vdr issues?

Now I'll go watching some recording (not with the tablet
) so I won't follow-up until tomorrow.

The client tells me there's no update available, I still have the locale problem.
Attached is a quick hack (due to my non existent understanding of ruby) to at least get a limited channel list.
Initially the server threw an exception due to the empty extra token, then it died with no exception after some channels (I suppose it was left without memory), I limited them to 1000 and I think the client had problem with that, so I limited them to 100, then it choked on the epg.
Now I get a channel list (with a duplicate for each language even when it's empty) but it doesn't "play" and this is the only thing in the log
I think there's a lot of work to do to make it work (and even with just 100 channlels without epg it takes more than 10 seconds to retrieve them) and I don't think it's worth it (frankly the tablet sucks wrt video)

And you can watch almost live-tv if you start to record the show you want to watch and then stream that I guess you need to change the streamdev stream to ts to be able to watch it. I guess the epg data fetching via telnet worked ok for you? I wonder if it's possible to generate the streamdev urls from that info making the html-parsing unnecessary.

Anyway, it would work only if you have epg for a channel, if there's no epg (channel not tuned after the last current/next epg) you cannot tune to the channel since you'd get no listing for it.
EDIT: should now be fixed. To update server: ./scripts/update && ./knots restart and then start knots and select Check for updates from the menu after you have connected.
