Check TV_RECORD_DIR and OVERLAY_DIR in local_conf.py.

Do they exist and does the user running freevo has acces to it ?

Hello,  I get this error whenever the record server tries to record. 
Everything works, I click record using the webserver and a show is
added to my list of shows scheduled to be recorded.  a .fxd file is
created, etc.  When it is time to actually record, however, nothing
happens.  Checking the log of the recordserver reveals

TV_RECORD_DIR is already set, but I hadn't even uncommented the OVERLAY_DIR.
What is the syntax for overlay?  Can it just be any path I want like
tv_record?  I'm kind of confused by the

OVERLAY_DIR= os.path.join(FREEVO_CACHEDIR, 'vfs')
To me that looks like a string joining function or something?

Do you have an example of what it should look like?  Is it just



OVERLAY_DIR= '/random/path/'
or is it 

OVERLAY_DIR= os.path.join(/random/path/, 'vfs')

Thanks in advance

2005-01-03 Thread Bart Heremans
1) First add DEBUG=1 to local_conf.py
2) Can you watch tv with = mplayer tv:// (and some options)
3) can you watch tv with freevo (take a show in the tvguide that is
currently running, else freevo will try to schedule it)
4) try to record manually, cut and paste the record command from the
logfile to a terminal, errors when you run this ? :

mencoder tv:// -tv

first time I setup freevo I forgot to compile mplayer without v4l / v4l2

[Freevo-users] Freevo + dfbmga: freevo display's nothing anymore after playing a movie.

2005-01-03 Thread Ren� van Dorst
Hi,
I'm using freevo with dfbmga output.
Freevo starts fine. Freevo screen is booting on my tv (Second head) my 
monitor goes to black(First head).
After playing a movie the screen stays black.
And 1 of the python threads uses all of the idle cputime.

 PID USER  PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEMTIME+  COMMAND
1478 root   9   0 48052  30m 5016 S  0.0  6.1   0:02.85 python

1487 root   9   0 48052  30m 5016 S  0.0  6.1   0:00.13 python
when i press enter the same movie starts playing even on the screen. Because 
of the high cpu load the movie is not playing smoothly.
when i press esc the movie stops. and 1 python thread uses all of the 
remaining cpu time and the screen stays black.

I have also connected an LCD. The displays the menu.
When playing a movie he shows the info of the movie.
But when the movie stops he wont return to the menu.
When i walk in the menu then i can see somethings the menu in it. Only for 
1sec or less.

I tried to kill the python thread that kills freevo.
Freevo works fine went i use it with fbdev output.
Specs:
HW:
AMD 1800+
512mb DDR
Matrox G400 Dualhead
Asrock L7S8XE+
LCD 20x4 HD44780
PAL TV (20 years old :) )
SW:
Debian Unstable
Freevo 1.5.2
SDL 1.2.7 with directfb support
python 2.3.4
LCDProc 0.4.5
Has someone any idea what it can be?
Sorry for my bad english.
Greats,
René van Dorst

[Freevo-users] directfb matroxg450 kernel 2.6

2005-01-03 Thread rupert t
Hi,
right now im trying to get freevo to use my g450 TV-Output,
i connected a composite cable to the second monitor port.
I can use VDR with directfb fine.
I got the latest release from freevo and compiled SDL with directfb
support on debian/sid.

my freevo.conf:

chanlist = us-cable
display = directfb
geometry = 720x576
lsdvd = /usr/bin/lsdvd
mencoder = /usr/local/bin/mencoder
mplayer = /usr/local/bin/mplayer
renice = /usr/bin/renice
setterm = /usr/bin/setterm
tv = pal
version = 2.1

directfbrc:

matrox-crtc2
mode=720x576
matrox-tv-standard=pal
matrox-cable-type=composite
primary-layer=2
disable-module=joystick
disable-module=ps2mouse
disable-module=lirc
depth=32


when i start freevo says no avaible video device, i dont get any
directfb messages there. :(.

I also set all the export variables, that are mentioned in the directfb
howto.
One thing that is different is that I dont have any matrox-i2c modules,
think dont need them because vdr runs fine:

can someone help me with this?

thx

[Freevo-users] Anybody tried the Nmedia HTPC cases?

2005-01-03 Thread Eric Jorgensen

   These things: 

http://www.nmediapc.com/product1.htm

   Plastic and sheet steel construction, so not particularly well made, but
far more affordable than D.Vine and similar cases. Price range I've seen
for the case alone is about $115-$150. 

   Specs look good - integrated IR receiver (possibly just IrDA?) and LCD,
and it doesn't look as slick as some htpc cases but not too bad and
reasonably functional. 

   My fears though - they say the LCD is a temperature readout, which is
more than a little silly, and utterly worthless. Theoretically one could
rip it out and install a normal LCD module. If the IR is really just irda,

   So, anybody actually been inside one of these things? Or have other
suggestions for a good, cheap HTPC case that doesn't have a silly door over
the drive bays.

RE: [Freevo-users] Lirc and pyLirc.

2005-01-03 Thread Jon Morris
I had the same problem as a few more I think the package you need is lirc-lib
and or lirc-lib-devel.  I found them at atrpms.  I hope this helps

Thanks for the quick reply.  This did fix my problem.

Hi,

I'm the RPM packager for Freevo. My system is currently running FC2.

I'm using a self built RPM for lirc 0.7.0 for FC2. I can't remember why
I'm not using 0.6.6, perhaps something to do with input event support in
kernel 2.6. I built the RPM by modifying the SRPMS at www.freshrpms.net
for 0.6.6.

Try using the lirc 0.7.0 package from the Freevo site:
http://prdownloads.sf.net/freevo/lirc-0.7.0-1_fc2.i386.rpm

A more complete list of dependency packages can be found here:
http://freevo.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/doc/RPMInstallation

I have everything installed, but not functioning properly with freevo, as
I haven't spent time to figure out the mapping between the input events,
lircd and freevo keys.

 Quoting Jon Morris [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 I am working on installing a second Freevo playback server and have
everything functioning except for the remote configuration.  I have a
remote
 functioning on my main server, so I am not totally new to this process.
I installed lirc 0.7.0 this time instead of 0.6.6 on my working system.

 Now
 when I try to install pylirc 0.0.4, I get an error.  Lirc 0.7.0 is
installed
 successfully, I can use the irrecord and successfully create the
lircd.conf
 file.  Here is the output from the pylirc attempt:
 # apt-get install pylirc-0.0.4-1_fc2.i386.rpm
 Reading Package Lists... Done
 Building Dependency Tree... Done
 Selecting pylirc for 'pylirc-0.0.4-1_fc2.i386.rpm'
 Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or
been moved out of Incoming.
 Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
 that package should be filed.
 The following information may help to resolve the situation:
 The following packages have unmet dependencies:
   pylirc: Depends: liblirc_client.so.0 but it is not installable
 E: Broken packages
 I am not finding anywhere to install the liblirc_client.so.0 package, and
 don't recall having to install it for lirc 0.6.6.  Has anyone been
successfull with lirc 0.7.0?  If not, how can I uninstall 0.7.0 so I
can
 install 0.6.6?  I build lirc from the source.  I am using FC2, Freevo
1.5.2.
 Thanks,


T.C.

Re: [Freevo-users] Anybody tried the Nmedia HTPC cases?

2005-01-03 Thread Chris Griffiths
It looks too tall to blend in as a hi-fi component, almost all of them
do.

I'm sticking with my Antec Sonata, it runs quiet and with the LED's
disconnected everyone thinks it's part of the surround sound setup.

Plastic and sheet steel construction, so not particularly well made,

 for the case alone is about $115-$150. 
 
Specs look good - integrated IR receiver (possibly just IrDA?) and

 reasonably functional. 
 
My fears though - they say the LCD is a temperature readout, which is
 more than a little silly, and utterly worthless. Theoretically one could

 it might not be suitable for remote control use.

   I dunno, looks like a computer to me. The tallness of the nmedia case
doesn't bother me much, and i'd prefer something that accepts full size pci
and agp cards anyway. 

   I want something that doesn't look much like a computer, and doesn't
have a silly door blocking access to the dvd drive. I'd actually prefer
slot-loaded though i understand that since slot-load drives are all but
extinct i'd probably have to make my own.

Re: [Freevo-users] Anybody tried the Nmedia HTPC cases?

2005-01-03 Thread Scott Serr
Awe... The Dell PowerEdge 400SC sitting in my entertainment unit looks 
fine.  There are so many black components people never pay any attention 
to the one that looks like it fell on it's side.  It is EXTREMELY 
quiet.  Quieter than my notebook or any other computer I have.

http://www1.us.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/pedge_400sc?c=uscs=04l=ens=dfb;
The current model is SC420?  (They decided that letters went before 
numbers this time around?)  I got my 400SC a year ago with stacked 
rebates - end cost was $374 with the $100 processor upgraded to a real 
P4 2.4 from a Celeron 2.0.  Best chipset (875?) at the time, SATA, ECC, 
800MHz FSB.

You can swap the 2 floppy bays for HDs.  You gotta get 1 set of floppy 
mounting rails off ebay for cheap though.  Then use a 5.25 to a 3.5 
converter in one of the two 5.25 bays.  5 HDs and room left for one DVD 
drive.  Perfect...  RAID it, LVM it, serve chilled.

Beware: Western Digital drives make lots of noise.  In my recent 
experience (120GB-200GB) quietest to noisiest: Seagate, Hitachi (IBM 
Deathstars), Maxtor, Western Digital.  I love the Seagates and like the 
Hitachis.  I've also used the warranty on the WD, and it sounds like I 
might be using it again.

Hope this was helpful to someone.
