[Freevo-devel] Freevo2: No module named version

2007-02-07 Thread naudefj
I've downloaded freevo2 from SVN. However, when I start it, I get the 
following error:

$ freevo start
ImportError: No module named version
Not all requirements of Freevo are installed on your system.
Please check the INSTALL file for more informations.

Best regards.

Are you kidding?  I tried something like this a while ago but just
coudn't get my head around it.  I would be greatfull of such a plugin.

But it would also be great if this plugin could draw from the config
system of freevo2.  Such that in future we could add more items; and
more options to items, via some configuration instead of via editing
the structs in the code.

Now that would be cool.  But I'd also be happy just to have it.  Could
even do crazy stuff like lock down (on a per item bases) whether to
launch it with mplayer or xine or whatever..

Ok, but I'd also like to see a function that just returns a list of
variable names.  Just like, for example, iterating over a dictionary
iterates over its keys, or you can call keys().

I think any methods a configuration tool would need to call ought to be
public methods.

Bonus points for allowing the user to specify any config module.
freevo.ui.config.config is one possibility, but I may also want to
read/write a config file for kaa.popcorn.config.

dischi, looks like there isn't a public method for fetching variable

I just switched most parts of freevo config to the kaa.config. Is
someone here willing to help to create a config editor? One idea is to
put this into the webserver, but the webser is not working. Beside
$EDITOR, a gtk gui would be nice.

To create such a config writer, NO knowledge of freevo 2.0 internals
are needed and from kaa you only need some understanding of
kaa.config. I will answer questions regarding that module. To access
the config you only need to 'from freevo.ui.config import config' and
config the the generic kaa.config object with descriptions, type
definitions, default values, etc.


Anyone?

I am equally convinced the 1.x config approach is a mistake.  The 2.0
way is just so much better, with features like introspection, cleaner
mapping into Python space, hand-editable config files, and change
notification.  (Of course, we largely duplicated GConf :))

The fact that the first error is not a missing directfb.h but "error:
'IDirectFBScreen' has no member named 'GetSize'" suggests instead he may
be using an older directfb.  (Or perhaps a new one than Rob had when he
hacked on kaa.xine.)

Mike, what version of directfb do you have?

Hopefully this is just as simple as bumping up the version requirement
in setup.py.

That is odd. The code should not be compiled unless you have directfb
installed. Do you have directfb-config or directfb can be found using
pkgconfig? See setup.py in kaa.xine for details.

OK, in that case a fork maybe is the best idea. It is a bit sad, we
are low on developer and you working on freevo would be better for
us. But ideas like this won't fit into Freevo.

Please name the download page of your fork once you have a version to
download. It would be nice to copy code from one project to the other
if it is usefull.

Good luck. I tried that, too, and the 2.0 idea seems better to me. But
maybe you have more luck with it.

[Freevo-devel] Freevo 2.0 Config Update

2007-02-07 Thread Dirk Meyer
Hi,

I checked in some code that replaces the old freevo_config.py and
local_conf.py logic. It is not finished yet. If you use svn trunk for
testing, read this file carefully.

o The config file is now ~/.freevo/freevo2.conf. It will be generated
  if it is not there and freevo will stop. You can force the
  generation with 'freevo setup'. The config file will keep itself
  up-to-date. But you should run 'freevo setup' after each checkout
  the next days to keep your config up-to-date. Your settings are save
  and will survive 'freevo setup'.

o Plugins can be activated or deactived using the 'activate'
  variable. A value of 0 means deactivated. The plugins are loaded
  based on the integer you provide. E.g. video.activate is lower than
  audio.activate and this results in video before audio in the main
  menu.

o The player.conf is now integrated in freevo2.conf. I was not sure if
  this is a good idea, it creates a larger config file, but I guess it
  is easier that way to handle.

o Some parts are still in freevo_config.py and need a local_conf for
  updates. On request, this file is now local_conf2.py (!). Please
  rename the file. Once the transformation from freevo_config.py to
  kaa.config is complete, this will won't be needed anymore.

Note for developer:

You can see many config.cxml files in the tree now. They are merged
and saved as one file on install. Every plugin must have an entry in a
cxml file or it can't be loaded with the new system. This also forces
a doc string for each config.


Have fun

What about writing a plugin to allow different settings to be selected
and then update or create an fxd file with a list of variants. This
would be rather useful for reencode too.

The reencode2 plugin shows how to create menus and sub-menus, but I
didn't know about the skin plugins at the time, otherwise the skin code
would have gone in there and not in basic.fxd. The video_details plug-in
shows how to do this.

If this how you were thinking of doing this?

[Freevo-devel] Plugin for selecting different postprocessing options in mplayer

2007-02-07 Thread Gorka Olaizola
Hello,

I have some hi-res videos that play choppy with my current mplayer
postprocessing options but play well with pp=de.

I think there is no way right now in Freevo to select different mplayer
options for a video. I know that I can use the variants in an .fxd but I
think that creating the .fxd is too much work when I can select the
mplayer options I want directly from the submenu of the movie.

I'm coding a plugin that lets force the aspect ratio of a
movie (many movies downloaded from bittorrent have bad aspect ratio) and
select from a list of different video and audio postprocessing options.

Does someone think is a good idea? There is similar code out there?

Put it in the directory you start freevo then it is used instead of
/etc/freevo/local_config.py.

Possible best to write a script to cd first and then start freevo2
