>Hi all,
>
>I have been trying to get freevo working on my system for a long time
>now with no success.
>
>I would like to know it it is necessary to use mplayer when watching TV
>because I can't find anywhere in the config file to change this to use 
>xine.
>
>Also I will include my current config file here because the changes that
>I make here don't seem to be working. I have a dvb-t usb device and I
>would like to use it to watch TV, it already works through xine's dvb
>plug in and I can even use it to watch tv on mplayer if I use the mrl
>dvb://'channel name' but the way freevo tries to launch it produces a
>second where the screen is blank and then a return to the TV guide.
>
>Also the channels that I enter in the config file don't show up in the
>guide, even though the notes say that they would even if they are not in
>the xmltv file.
>
>
>Well I hope someone can help me, thanks in advance

>#    you can edit this file, or better, put a file named local_conf.py

>#
>#    This is no normal config file, it's Python code. Because of that, you
