Hi!

VDR-1.6.0 needs a patch to work properly with dxr3. The current version of
vdr-dxr3 -plugin doesn't work with the newest VDR; however the changes to make
it work are already in the CVS of vdr-dxr3 plugin, and VDR is going to need to
be patched anyways, after a new version of the plugin is released.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Get the CVS version of vdr-dxr3 plugin
2. Run VDR with the plugin
3. change to a channel with subtitles

Actual Results:  
The subtitles are garbled on DXR3

Expected Results:  
Subtitles should be shown correctly.

Changes required in the ebuild, i.e. adding dxr3 to IUSE and the epatch

Here are changes to the ebuild.

Hi Ville,

we will bring out in the next days a -r1 version with some small minor fixes, 
this patch will be also included then.

Hi Zavian-Anderson,

This patch won't fix your problem. From the log you attached, it seems that vdr
tries to look for dvdnav but fails. I don't have that problem.

This patch only affects dxr3, more specifically corrupt subtitles. It only
decreases the bpp for subtitles in the OSD, nothing else. Also, it wont do
anything unless you enable the dxr3 use flag.

I recommend you reate a new bug report (let's only discuss this dxr3 & subtitle
problem here).
