Hello everyone,

after I managed to install freevo finaly I have a problem to understand 
the new VCR_CMD.

I used this at freevo version 1.4:
VCR_CMD = ("aumix -W 100 -w 100 -i 100 -1 100; " +
         CONF.mencoder + " " +
              "tv:// " +                      # New mplayer requires 
this.
              "-tv driver=%s:input=%d" % (TV_DRIVER, TV_INPUT) +
              ":norm=%s" % CONF.tv +
  #            ":channel=%(channel)s" +        # Filled in by Freevo
#             ":chanlist=%s" % CONF.chanlist +
             ":freq=%(frequencyMhz)s" +
              ":brightness=-17" +
              ":width=%d:height=%d" % (TV_REC_SIZE[0], TV_REC_SIZE[1]) +
              ":outfmt=%s" % TV_REC_OUTFMT +
              ":device=%s" % TV_DEVICE +
              VCR_AUDIO +                     # set above
              " -ovc lavc -lavcopts " +       # Mencoder lavcodec 
videocodec
              "vcodec=mpeg4" +                # lavcodec mpeg-4
           [..snip..]

As you can see I used frequency parameter. I don't know anymore how I 
came to that. I used it for years..
But recordserver.log said:
2007-10-02 19:00:00,429 INFO     recordserver.py (957) : start

so I commented the frequency parameter and took the channel parameter 
and recordserver.log was lucky:

But it didn't record anything. No avi, just a fxd.

several years ago it also took some time and much help to get my 
VCR_CMD up. It seems I need  help again.
Can anybody point me to the right config ?
