Hello again and thanks for fast answer ! I have now installed the cvs-version of xine, but that did not resolve my problem. Actually xine starts fine. The problem is that the channel is not changed, and that freevo freezes. I have to use Ctrl-C or send a kill signal. I get the following from DEBUG=1, after I tells freevo to start xine to watch TV :
INFO: ('localhost', 18001) is down DEBUG: getVideoGroup(chan='nrk1.nrk.no', isplayer=True, chan_index=0) DEBUG: XineIvtv.Play(mode='tv', channel='E7', channel_change=0) DEBUG: XineControl.Start() DEBUG: XineApp.__init__(app='/usr/local/bin/xine -pq --geometry 800x600+0+0 --no-splash -pq --geometry 800x600+0+0 --no-splash pvr:/ \\! \\!')

Is that a problem ? Any suggestions of what my problem can be ?
