Well Evan I finally found a command that stops the HDPVR recording. I got rid of the VCR_POST_REC command in my local conf and instead, I added a string of commands to the VCR_CMD. Here's what the local conf now looks like....
CONFIG_VERSION = 5.27 TV_RECORD_DIR = '/home/tvphil/Videos' TV_CHANNELS = 'Comcast','Comcast','NA3' VCR_CMD = 'cat /dev/video1> %(filename)s + & sleep %(seconds)s ; kill -9 $!' TV_DEVICE = '/dev/video1' TV_INPUT = 1 TV_REC_SIZE = (1920, 1080) TV_RECORD_FILE_SUFFIX = '.mpg' DEBUG = 5 DEBUG_CHILDAPP = 1 I think this would also be a good addition to the wiki, for anyone else who wants to use this device for recording with Freevo.As you may have noticed the NA3 at the end of the TV_Channels, that's to keep the recordserver to stop telling me it has no conf for US cable channels. For anyone else reading this, this device is the Hauppauge HD PVR, model 1212. --- On Tue, 6/9/09, Evan Hisey <ehi...@gmail.com> wrote: > From: Evan Hisey <ehi...@gmail.com> > Subject: Re: [Freevo-users] Configuring HD PVR with Freevo 1.90 > To: freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Date: Tuesday, June 9, 2009, 12:05 PM > On Tue, Jun 9, 2009 at 9:25 AM, Phil > Raymond<tvp...@yahoo.com> > wrote: > > > > Maybe I'm not looking at the right output, but the > only error message I can post, is the same one I posted > before, but I included what follows, which proves Freevo > thinks it has stopped the recording, when it hasn't. here is > the most recent one.... > > > > 2009-06-08 21:40:02,278 WARNING recordserver.py > (1043): event=OS_EVENT_POPEN2 > arg=(<util.popen3.child_handler instance at > 0x2970ab8>, 'cat /dev/video1 -c') not handled > > 2009-06-08 21:40:45,002 INFO recordserver.py > (970): found a program to clean: Mon Jun 08 21:37->21:40 > (18:00) N Fox News > > 2009-06-08 21:41:31,262 INFO recordserver.py > (1490): main() finished > > > > Let me know what you think is going on and how to > correct it. > > > Simply put, based on the error message, your VCR_POST > command is not > working.
