[Freevo-users] freevo on win32

2004-10-21 Thread m voncken
Hi,

I've got freevo 1.5 running on winxp.
I did just the bare minimum to get it running
(mp3+gui).
It maybe interesting  for someone who wants to make a
real win32 port.

 Eric

 XML would be fine if ALL configuration could be done via interface,
 some setup. It is better format for our Freevo machines ;)
 However, if _some_ parts of config should be done still in vi (nano,
 ..your fav editor) it would be IMHO better to keep the config file
 the way it is now - more readable for humans. Also, if someone
 omits/accidentally deletes XML closing tag for example...all XML
 parsing goes to hell.

 Why not do a hybrid, exactly the way local_conf.py overrides the
 globals? Have an XML file that is loaded after the local_conf.py and
 can override it. This is where run-time configuration changes would be
 kept.

Yes, that what's I would prefer. We would load a basic setting (like
freevo_config.py), after that the local_conf.py and than the xml
runtime changes (or the other way around). 

About the coding of this: feel free to do it / send patches. I have no
time for this right now but it is a big step we need at some point. To
make it work very easily: the xml file just adds the config variables
(see src/freevo/system/cache.py in current cvs).

Example:

freevo_config.py:
AUDIO_PREFERED_PLAYER = 'mplayer'

xmlfile:
audio
  var name=prefered player type=stringxine/var
/audio

The parser will set config.tag name_var name with s/ /_/, in this
case the config reader will set config.AUDIO_PREFERED_PLAYER = 'xine'


Someone willing to do this? It's a very good place for someone to
start coding because you don't have to understand much of the freevo
code to do it.

Re: [Freevo-users] Re: make problem with CVS

2004-10-21 Thread Tanja Striepling
i
 
  I'd like to test the current CVS-version of freevo.
 
 First of all a warning: current cvs is only for testing, not for
 daily use. The tv part is still broken, the rest should work. 

Don't worry, I just was curious...
 
  The CVS-snapshot that is linked from the home page seems to be
  outdated, so I decided to load the code directly from CVS.
 
  When doing make, I got the following error:
 
  (cd lib/pyimlib2 ; make )
  make[1]: Entering directory
  `/home/tanja/Zeug/FreevoWork/CVS/freevo/lib/pyimlib2' python
  setup.py
   ^^ :)
  build Traceback (most recent call last):
File setup.py, line 1, in ?
  from distutils.core import setup, Extension
  ImportError: No module named distutils.core
 
 The distutils are part of Python. So maybe you use SuSE or RedHat
 and there is an extra package python-devel or so?
 
 Oh...hm... you are right there is a extra package pytho2.3-dev for
Debian. But unfortunately that's not all, what is missing.
The version of libimlib2 in Debian/sid is to old...

Okay, thanks for your help.
I guess I will forget that for the moment...

By the way, freevo is great. There are still some things missing, as
far as I can judge that at the moment, but on the other hand there
are already lots of very useful features.

Keep at it!

Tanja

[Freevo-users] Plans for mouse input?

2004-10-21 Thread Chris Metcalf
Are there any current plans to implement mouse input in Freevo? Has
anybody ported the example from the wiki to the current CVS code?

Thanks,
Chris Metcalf

[Freevo-users] Freevo Help!

2004-10-21 Thread MARTIN CHARLEY
I know I have a basic question but I am not sure how to proceed.  During the 
freevo setup, the install mentions there will be a /etc/freevo directory 
created.  This does not happen for me!  freevo.conf gets written to 
./root/freevo..Am I doing something wrong?  Thanks in Advance!

[Freevo-users] some dvb questions: How to config TV channels with no epg data (TV.xml), How to configure two record tv cards (dvb,pvr250) ?

2004-10-21 Thread Thomas Kranz
Hi freevo users,

I bought a cheap dvb card (twinhan) and it works fine so far.
I fetch the xml epg data every night and replace the old TV.xml automatically.

I want to configure the TV module with more channels than in the TV.xml is included 
(some channels don't have epg entries).
Is there a simple solution or have I to insert the channels in the TV.xml everyday and 
local_config
manually ?

second question:
I own now the pvr250 for analog tv and the dvb-s for digital recordings.
I want to record with both cards and configure the recordserver, webserver and
freevo record scheduler with both cards. Each time I select a recording I want to 
choose the specific card or
the card should be automatically recognized if the channel is only configured for one 
card.
Is this already possibly with freevo (and video groups) or possible in future time ?

third question:
I noticed that mplayer has a great osd menu (has to be configured in menu.conf).
With a dvb-mplayer config I can watch dvb-s live and also switch the channels
with lirc or the keyboard (h,k) and ofcourse I have a dvb channel menu with the osd 
menu.

last Question:
If I watch TV and the recording starts, will freevo automatically close the TV live 
program and start 
recording ? BTW live watching and recording on the same transponder and different 
polarisation
is possible and would be nice.

thanx for answers,
Thomas

PS: I noticed that vdr will be the better one for dvb, but I have a budget card
and want to use it for recordings and sometimes watching tv. Freevo is now nice 
at my box and well configured - I don't want to change to vdr or use the plugin 
(and the softmpeg output plugin is in development status).

myconfig:
XP1700, 384MB Ram (DDR266), KT266 Board (matx)
Matrox G400 framebuffer tvout
twinhan dvb-s VisionDTV Plus
Hauppauge PVR250
SB Live with digital I/O extension for optical digital output to my yamaha amp
2 samsung harddisk (120 GB,160 GB)
1 seagate system harddisk (80 GB)
Kernel 2.4.27 (v4l2, i2c patched) with latest stable dvb modules
