However, when I started Freevo, it stopped with the
followin error: pygame.error: No available video device
I'm using the following freevo.conf: chanlist = us-cable display = dfbmga geometry = 720x576 jpegtran = ./runtime/apps/jpegtran mplayer = /usr/local/bin/mplayer tv = pal tvtime = ./runtime/apps/tvtime/tvtime version = 2.0
When I configure SDL I get a message saying that pkg-config is missing and required to build DirectFB video driver. I guess this is why Freevo won't start. But I have pkg-config installed... Anyone that have an idea of what to do?
SDL configure is probably just looking for pkg-config in the wrong place. Look for a configure option to set it straight.
Once you have libSDL recompiled against your new directfb stuff, and have Freevo using that libSDL, you should export SDL_VIDEODRIVER=directfb and when starting Freevo you should see some directfb messages. You may need to play with the resolution to get thins going properly. I have Freevo set to 720x480 and in my /etc/directfbrc I have:
matrox-crtc2 matrox-tv-standard=ntsc mode=640x480 primary-layer=02
