[Freevo-users] bluetooth send plugin
Hi, Just wondering if anyone already made an plugin to send files to a phone with bluetooth. What I had in mind was select a file (audio/video/image), press 'e' or the ENTER button on your remote and select your trusted device or scan for new devices and select those (pin exchange) and transfer.. It not any suggestions which plugin can be an example then I try to endeavour into this one. /Robert Winder -- Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge This is your chance to win up to $100,000 in prizes!

OK, I got it (and in some ways, it returns to freevo, sorry :-|). Since long time, PVR card did work in a kind of generic PAL or generic SECAM mode. For secam, this was a value of ff, witch this result : $ v4l2-ctl -S Video Standard = 0x00ff SECAM-B/D/G/H/K/K1/L/Lc This doesn't work anymore (at least on my system !) But if I select the 'French secam' (that is, secam-L) : $ v4l2-ctl -s secam-L Standard set to 0040 $ v4l2-ctl -S Video Standard = 0x0040 SECAM-L Then the sound is back here (to be able to do that, I change the standard in ferrvo.conf to a wrong value. So freevo complains, but the TV has sound !) OK, I tried my chance on the ivtv-users list, and here is the answer of Hans Verkuil : Hi Pascal, It's not a bug, it's the right behavior. I'm even a bit surprised that this has worked in the past. Setting generic secam is a bad thing to do as there is really no such thing. In practice you have SECAM-BG, SECAM-DK and SECAM-L. And it is basically undefined what will happen if you just set SECAM. More than likely the driver used a specific standard, such as SECAM-BG when SECAM was selected. Has anyone noticed that the ivtv driver now loads the firmware, not on the module loading but when it is first accessed? If this is the new behaviour then it is a nice feature, as the drivers can be modprobed in a standard order. Duncan Yeah I noticed this and it fails to load the firmware so now and then on my pvr150 with ivtv 2.3.0, As an result I am ending up with a lot of static recordings. Still investigating why this behaviour is intermittent though before reporting it through the proper channels. Could be a race condition when passing on the v4l2 commands with freevo.

Re: [Freevo-users] resolution while playing
Hugo, You might want to add a modeline in xorg.conf like ModeLine 768x576 50.00 768 832 846 1000 576 590 595 630 in the Monitor section to see if the nvidia driver picks that up. And as an aspect helper for xine you may add the line # Set for 4:3 display DisplaySize 300 225 for standard definitions. Again you put these line in the monitor section /Robert On Sunday, September 23, 2007, 4:29:52 PM, Hugo wrote: Hello all, I've been poking around with freevo for the last days for the first time and i have to say that i'm impressed with all the possibilities. My first approach was to launch freevo from gdm and i already had everything working in this setup. Then i saw the docs about freevo -fs, and i switched for that kind of setup, which is much faster and cleaner (no windowing and all). The problem is that suddenly my videos don't play with the right resolution. The resolution used is bigger than the 768x576. I've managed to correct this behavior in mplayer with -screenh 576 -screenw 768 but since i use xine to play DVDs, i'm stuck on that part. I can see in my /var/log/Xorg.0.log that the resolution used is 800x600, although i only have Modes 768x576 in my xorg.conf. My guess is that xinit doesn't really care about things on xorg.conf. And this clearly strikes me as a X issue. (II) NVIDIA(0): Setting mode 800x600 I'd like to solve this in a general way, i.e. without having to force resolutions on the players, if that's not possible. If someone knows how can i do a similar thing to xine like i did with mplayer, that'll be great too. At least for a temporary fix up. I've tried parameters --geometry 768x576+0+0 in xine, but the result was the same. Any help will be very much appreciated.

Got my playstation 3 running on framebuffer @1920x1080p with freevo 1.7.2 :-) Awesome. How is the PS3 at decoding a really awful combination of codecs? Let's say, H.264 video with AAC audio. Does it have enough CPU power to push that at 1080p? (Although I ask this knowing that most available HD videos out there are 720, not 1080.) Installed Gentoo on it the day before Yesterday, so still in the experimenting stage. And it's my first time using framebuffer so much to learn there especially when using fullscreen video's. For that the zoom option is needed and found that SDL works best in these circumstances but doesn't cooperate that well in conjunction with freevo. Albeit sws is required most of the time and it stresses the hardware a lot. Don't have any 1920x1080p or 1080i content or h264 with aac content yet to play with, but maybe later. Some people reported here that with YDL the weren't able to set freevo at 1080p due to an error in pygame but none are found in gentoo until know. But i must admit there still a lot of development on the ps3(ppc64)so things shall improve overtime, and not sure if you might call it production ready :-) Have to reinstall gentoo again, because of user error (forgot to enlarge the linuxpartition, defaults to 10 GB) and if I find the time I write something up on the wiki when redoing the whole process. /Robert - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

[Freevo-users] freevo on playstation 3
Hi, Bought myself a ps3 last weekend as an replacement for my hush epia1000 with freevo and to be able to play some games so now and then. The Epia was doing great over the last few years but isn't capable to play hdtv content @ 1080p or even 1080i. More and more content are in these formats nowadays...so i'ts time to get ready for the future. Did some reading up and with YellowDogLinux 5.0.1 Wifi is supported to get some needed steams over a share or inet. http://lists.terrasoftsolutions.com/pipermail/yellowdog-announce/2007-May/000155.html The ps3 is able to play 1080 content and only with one cell processor in linux. http://lists.terrasoftsolutions.com/pipermail/yellowdog-general/2007-March/021298.html Bleutooth remote seems to be supported in linux. http://www.pabr.org/sixlinux/sixlinux.en.html Accelerated video drivers is the only thing missing due to the hypervisor but when running only freevo on it there is no need for 3D. When configured it seems to be a nice all in one solution. Top notch games with the PS3 shared with freevo on a linux partition acting as htpc for playing the content the ps3 gameOS is not able to play. A perfect combination!! So are there any others who have freevo already running on a PS3 and want to share there experiences. Any caveats, things to watch out for ? Although I've seen some reports that 1080i and 1080p is functioning fine on only one cell processor I am not so sure if that's really true. It would be great if anybody can give some confirmation about this ? Also not sure if it's possible to use the sixaxis ps3 controller to navigate through the freevo gui. There was a freevo bluetooth plugin years ago IIRC. Have to look into that a bit further.

Used entries in fstab before last year without prob and it did mount the usb storage device automagicly. With freevo 1.4 it did not. Switched to autofs and automount and is better anyway especially if one have some samba shares in the network. With autofs it worked without a prob.

Re: [Freevo-users] usb mass storage help please
Mick, Oh sorry i totally misread your post .. you already got it working, heh. With older version it wasn't needed to use USB_HOTPLUG= and mount the device with a custom command, it already did it automatically. And i am fairly sure dischi didn't intended to mount a device semi manually with the USB_HOTPLUG option. And not sure what happens if one uses multiple usb storage devices without the use of the USB_ID. But i could be wrong of course, again. ;-) /Robert Sunday, April 18, 2004, 5:30:25 PM, Robert wrote: Mick, I used the USB plugin last year with an older version of Freevo with succes.

What I really want is for the features that I thought were in usbstorage, to 'add' and 'remove' the given directory when the device is available.

I guess for now a shortcut is to use usb.py to mount the drives and just hardcode the mount dirs to the video items.. FYI: This is what my config looks like.. plugin.activate('usb') USB_HOTPLUG = [ ('0402:5621', 'Mounting USB-1', 'mount /mnt/USB-1 /mnt/USB-2') ] plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='video', args=('0402:5621', '/mnt/USB-1')) reading usbstorage.py, it looks like '0402:5621' is the name given to the menu item, but i left the USB device ID there just in case i'mmissing something.. Only issue with this is that they don't unmount when they are removed.. Maybe there's sometheing to add to the usb plugin: ie app to call when device x is removed.. OK. Ive done this now.

Re: [Freevo-users] Xine default player
Well i believe dischi made some progress on this and xine can be used for audio and video with cvs version. But it doesn't work for me that well. If i remove video.mplayer and activate video.xine xine is used but there is no LIRC event control. Is this the correct way to enable xine? Also A/V sync is way off with xine when used for video. I know there is a option for mplayer to work around the audio delay from MMpython. Maybe we need this for xine as well. xine for DVD is working great after installing all the freevo dependencies because of the segfaulting with dvdinfo in the runtime. That's something what imho needs to be fixed it's taking all the fun away :-) Also checked out CVS and the blending of the images is very cool, nice work. ;-) But still got some questions left about the new features in cvs. * Got xine-lib xine-ui cvs installed but the new enhance interlacing stuff doesn't seem to work. Does i have to enable this somewhere ? * When xine is configured as dvd player and i select DVD title list mplayer is used and as i prefer xine i didn't expected this. * and something i don't understand for quite a while is the configure directory option. When used is this saved somewhere or is this for future use ? * Why doesn't recursive/random play work for images or must this be done manually with playlists ? Just some user experiences. /Robert Monday, December 1, 2003, 2:08:04 PM, fn024607 wrote: Hi list, I wished to know how can I modify freevo to use xine player to open certain filetypes, for example .ogm files.

If you use fbxine, I made a patch yesterday and send it to the xine people. It's not in cvs, I expect it there in about 3 days. I attached the patch in this mail in case you want to try it. Is working now, thanks. * Why doesn't recursive/random play work for images or must this be done manually with playlists ? It should work in current cvs -- maybe too good.

Re: [Freevo-users] Having trouble getting games working.
Well i run xmame like this DIR_GAMES = [ ('MAME', '/media/games/roms', ('MAME', '/usr/bin/xmame.x11', '' , '/media/games/mameshots', [ 'zip' ] )) ] When freevo starts for the first time setup.py will look for mame or snes and puts the location of the binary in freevo.conf. Not sure if it will detect stella.sdl ? So you maybe have to add it manually in freevo.conf. It that doesn't work try to _fake_ it and use xmame = /usr/bin/xmame.x11 in freevo.conf. Not sure if this is gonna work and can't verify cause my hard drive crashed. ;-) Or search and hunt down the code where the game detecting is done modify it and send in a patch. When a game is detected in freevo.conf it will give you the games menu item. And as an last resort if that doesn't work try removing the freevo cache files in /var/cache/freevo. Had to this myself otherwise freevo didn't cache the rom file list. Essentially this is something where some improvement can be done. Caching is very helpful but it sometimes break things. Scenario as follows: * user sets up freevo. - caching is done * user decides to add games - caching has already taken place and freevo doesn't bother anymore to generate a rom file list. /Robert Friday, November 21, 2003, 11:43:54 PM, Shane wrote: I attempted to send this message once before, but it never showed up to the archives.

[Freevo-users] 1.3.4 some findings.
Hi, I don't want to scare people off because i only encountered some minor things when installing and setting up freevo 1.3.4. It works great and in fact playing a dvd with xine is now do-able on an M9000 epia. ;-) Fantastic A/V sync and only 60% cpuload, with mplayer it was hitting the ceiling. Looking forward to see the xine-pvr plugin in action Aubin. Great work guys. But.. When freevo is started from runlevel 3, hence without a user mmpython crashes: Not sure if this is a bug or a feature. ;-) It did work with previous releases.
