RE: [Freevo-users] Recording + WinTV pvr 250 + local_conf.py
Hi, I've been doing some more searching in the logs and I have discovered I have a recordserver-0.log and a recordserver-502.log. The 502 is the user and the 0 the root log. In the root log I find the error as reprorted below. In the 502 I find some of the succesfull recordings like .. 2004/01/21 13:21 CET [*RecordServer*] Recorder::Record: 2004-01-21 09:00 to 2004-01-21 17:50 31.tvgids.nl RTL Z Nieuws 2004/01/21 13:21 CET [*RecordServer*] Record_Thread::run: mode=record 2004/01/21 13:21 CET [*RecordServer*] Record_Thread::run: started recording 2004/01/21 13:21 CET [*RecordServer*] Video Opened at /dev/video0 2004/01/21 13:21 CET [*RecordServer*] Setting Channel to s11+ 2004/01/21 13:21 CET [HTTPChannel,2,127.0.0.1] 127.0.0.1 - - [21/Jan/2004:12:21:02 +] POST / HTTP/1.0 200 2794 - xmlrpclib.py/1.0.1 (by www.pythonware.com) 2004/01/21 13:21 CET [HTTPChannel,3,127.0.0.1] 127.0.0.1 - - [21/Jan/2004:12:21:14 +] POST / HTTP/1.0 200 2794 - xmlrpclib.py/1.0.1 (by www.pythonware.com) 2004/01/21 13:21 CET [twisted.web.server.Site] (Port 18001 Closed) 2004/01/21 13:21 CET [twisted.web.server.Site] Stopping factory twisted.web.server.Site instance at 0x40f87fac 2004/01/21 13:21 CET [*RecordServer*] Main loop terminated. But in this log I see nothing about the scheduled recordings I have made. Those I see only in the 0 log, where mencoder is used what seems to me wrong. Here is what I do. As root I check if the recordserver has started (/etc/init.d/freevo_recordserver restart). I start freevo (as a user), enter the tv guide menu, select a program, press f6, choose record, the program becomes green, and I wait. Nothing happens, no recording is made. I check the logs, there is only an entry in the 0 log (about mencoder) and nothing in the 502 logs. In my local_conf.py I have commented out evertthing to do with VCR_CMD, I checked even the freevo.conf. But nothing gives. Hope someone can help me. Thanks.

There is 1 entry for recordserver. I tried running is as user because it

great thanks for that again)
You're right about the plugin (and I don't use it) to be sure I didn't use
the generic one I looked in my local_conf.py but the 2 lines at the top
(plugin.remove('tv.generic_record')
plugin_record = plugin.activate('tv.ivtv_record') )
are uncommented and under tv-plugins I have the ivtv basic uncommented.
I thaught and you confirm it that ivtv doesn't use mencoder so somewhere the
record function gets the wrong command. I have my local_conf.py places in
/.freevo and I have gone through the whole thing at least 3 times but I
can't find anything.

Make sure you do:
plugin.remove('tv.generic_record')
first, and also make sure you didn't modify freev_config.py (just making
sure).

Thanks, I checked and found several copies, I removed them all but nothing
gives. Because Rob talked about running the recordserver only as roor and I
had some difficulty in getting the thing op and running I uninstalled freevo
completely, removed all folders and files and did a clean install. That gave
me the following error when I tried ro record:
