[Freevo-users] Problem with tv_sort and xmltv listings

[Charles]

Configuration: New RH 9 install & Freevo 1.3.1
tv_sort,v 1.21 2003/04/03 07:23:49 

When I tv_sort my xml listing per the docs for North
America, I get this error:

parameterless "use IO" deprecated at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/XML/Writer.pm line 16
Name "Log::TraceMessages::On" used only once: possible
typo at /usr/bin/tv_sort line 149.

Both the original and the sorted files report as
corrupted by freevo.

I have only ONE channel setup in the local.conf.py
file

I searched the freevo-users for this, did not find a
match.

Thanks for an interesting project !

Charles

yep, that is what i have too. Then I have to reboot
system to fix it. I hope someone has a better solution
than that.

Re: [Freevo-users] Management Tools...

[Michael Ruelle]

I am also a perl person and found python docs on python.org as a good starting 
point. I was able to write the original library.cgi from examples already in 
the webserver part of freevo in a couple hours.

Dischi and others have talked about web setup as well. There are certain 
things you need to do to get this to get the web to work out of the box that 
aren't done by default. I have been considering  a curses application to get 
a minimal setup and then final tweaking through the web.

There is no official todo list for the web server. But you are welcome to add 
to it. I have done so myself and am planning on adding another new feature 
soon.

[Freevo-users] Management Tools...

[Trevor Phillips]

I manage a Freevo box for a club, which is perfect for easily screening media 
and such, but beyond the basic usage, you start dabbling with XML files with 
text editors. I'd like (for both other users and myself) to have a nicer 
interface to be able to manage the content of a Freevo box.

The sorts of things I'd like to see have a nicer interface include:
  *Simple Creator/Editor for XML files (for grouping files, associating 
thumbnails, setting prefs, etc...)
  *File Management: moving/copying files around the place

Is this sort of thing being worked on? (Or already exists?)

I believe this sort of task would be suited towards being web-based (but being 
a web apps designer by trade I'm somewhat biased ^_^). It's not stuff you 
need to do very often, and it requires extra typing (and mouse-work?) beyond 
the standard Freevo interface. If integrated with the Freevo webserver (which 
admittedly I haven't looked at yet), it could be managed from a web browser 
on the Freevo machine itself (perhaps even launched from a Freevo Config 
menu?), or from another machine on the LAN...

I'm tempted to write something myself, but I'm a Perl person, not Python - 
although if there was such a project tied to Freevo, I might force myself to 
learn enough Python to help out. ^_^

Re: [Freevo-users] Re: Freevo+DXR3: ffmpeg problem

[Aubin Paul]

Two seperate problems you're seeing here.

1. To play video on a DXR3, mplayer has to encode it into mpeg1/mpeg2
2. Video is going through memory, CPU, etc. before it goes out

I'm using a Celeron 400 and TV plays fine, but mainly because I have a
G400 which does a lot of the word in the video card. If you use the
TNT2 you could use tvtime, which I'm hoping will be the default TV
output soon since it is much more efficient for TV viewing than
mplayer.

Here's one; we should add tagging. I recently updated the id3v2
parsing library in Freevo and it happens to include the ability to
write tags as well. I would suggest id3v2 as default because it's not
as horrible limited as id3v1 tags.

Should definitely be configurable; something like this:

CD_RIP_PATH = '%(artist)s/%(album)'

or

CD_RIP_PATH = '%(artist)s - %(album)s'

would be nice.

A database may be an option, since we use Twisted now for the web

However, sorry to disappoint you, but your system is way too slow for
any practical (movies) use with the dxr3. (Sadly know it because I

I am having an identical problem:
Celeron 500
256M RAM (or something like that, I forget exactly)
als4000 alsa driver
some investigation shows that mplayer is segfaulting when loading the mp3s.

I tried both with the runtime mplayer, and one I created myself. 
However, the one I created myself had dxr3 support, as does the runtime 
one.  I haven't tried with one that does not have dxr3 support...that 
_could_ be the issue.

[Freevo-users] Ramdom Playback

[R. Scott Baer]

Is their a way to set up random playback of all your audio files, with out
specifying a specific dir.

I have my audio files in Artist-folders and album-folders, then the audio
files.

Currently I have to select down to the album-folder, then I can play random,
but only in that dir.
I would like to keep all the audio files in separate dir, and still beable
to randomly play all my audio files.

Also, will their be / or is their, a playlist feature that one can create
outside of freevo...  xmms or winamp.

[Freevo-users] Mplayer TV playback slow, using fast machine

Hello all,

I looked in the archives, but couldn't really find any other

I am using freevo on my box for tv watching.  It is using mplayer to
play the TV.

The problem is, the video is very "slow" or "lagged" (choppy at times
too), and about .5-2 seconds behind the audio.  I feel like the machine
is more than fast enough to display everything, so I don't know what the
problem is.

My machine is:
Athlon XP 2200+ on a Via KT266 chipset
512 MB DDR2700 RAM
Hauppague WinTV Go PCI for TV tuning
Nvidia GeForce 2 Ultra for display/tvout

I am running Gentoo Linux
Kernel 2.4.20
Xfree86 4.3.0 w/ nvidia drivers 1.0.4263
Mplayer and freevo cvs versions

I have tried using xv,sdl,dga and x11 -vo parameters for mplayer.  Dga
and xv seemed the fasted but still 'slow'.

I am lost!  Any tips?

This is where a database is needed.  I saw some discussion on the dev 
list (where this discussion should probably go :-) ) regarding mysql and 
saw general distaste towards using a database.  You simply cannot build 
a useful application for searching, browsing and categorizing music and 
for building playlists buy just working with a directory structure.  I'd 
really like to see some kind of listening preference data stored on each 
track that can be used to find the next track to listen to.  I don't see 
this kind of thing being simple, fast, or light-weight without the use 
of a "real" database.

I'm not at all opposed to working on this with someone.  Frankly, I 
think Freevo could do well with a database, rather than working with, 
for example, one big honkin' XML file for TV listings.  That's something 
that I think MythTV does quite well...

Now, that being said, I still think you need to have a reasonable 
directory structure.  I personally prefer 
_-__-__-_.

Thanks for listening,

Re: [Freevo-users] ripping interface?

[Rich C]

Hello Paul,

I am using the following:

cddb.py for grabbging the cddb info (a lot was copied
from rom_drives.py)

cdparanoia is used for the ripping process.

The plan was to convert to either ogg or .mp3 and use
Lame encoder. 

Brian,
If the CD does not have cddb info, the tracks get
called something like track1.wav to trackn.wav -can't
recall what the CD title is labeled as at the moment. 
Or if there are multiple matches, my module just
chooses the first match (this is how it was done in
another freevo module rom_drives.py, I plan to make
this selectable from the various CDDDB matches).

I am currently using the CD title to create a
directory in the specified audio directory
(CONFIG_AUDIO_DIR).  Any suggestions on how to
structure the audio directories?  I can also make a
subdirectory using the 'Category' of music and or use
the Artists/Groups name if CDDB returns that info.

This means that you do not need X to run freevo, which

[Freevo-users] problem "updating"

[Walker Gary]

I posted a message a couple days ago, but I think my subject line was
misleading.

I had freevo up and running on a machine for a couple weeks - I upgraded
to a newer version by typing

cvs update

just like the freevo webpage suggests. When I ran freevo again however,
the only option available was "TV Shows" - no "play music", "play
movies", etc...

Should I just DELETE, REINSTALL and not worry too much about this?

curious...

Re: [Freevo-users] ripping interface?

[Aubin Paul]

Can I ask which programs/libraries you're using? I would assume
python-cddb for CDDb access and cdparanoia for ripping. Presumably
we'd want to support lame for encoding, or oggenc...

When you have something workable, send it my way and I'll see what I
can do to merge it into CVS after testing.

Re: [Freevo-users] Trouble playing .mp3, DVDs and audio CDs

[Aubin Paul]

Look in the error log (internal-main-?.log) and look for a line like
this:

ChildApp.__init__(), pid=21123, app=./runapp --prio=-19
/usr/bin/mplayer -nolirc -screenw 768 -screenh 576 -fs -slave -ao
oss:/dev/dsp -nocache  -v -vo mga  "/media/Movies/MyMovie.avi" , poll=-1

Cut and paste everything from /usr/bin/mplayer to the filename. Yours
will look a little different obviously. Run that command from the
command-line.

i.e.
/usr/bin/mplayer -nolirc -screenw 768 -screenh 576 -fs -slave -ao
oss:/dev/dsp -nocache  -v -vo mga  "/media/Movies/MyMovie.avi"

And watch for any errors from mplayer. Something in this specific part
is failing for you, likely to either be the video output or sound output 
device...

That's something we should add to the config.

This existed a while ago, but hasn't been ported to the new skin yet.

The status bar does exist (check freevo.sf.net for a screenshot)
though no one has written an applet for monitoriing disk usage inside
of it, but it shouldn't be too hard.

Re: [Freevo-users] Recording time is off by 2 hours???

[Edward]

Actually, both 'clock', KDE and 'xclock' show the same
(correct) time.
I found this topic 
http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg00444.html
Is this code already in 1.3.2pre-4?

[Freevo-users] Re: Music crash

[Edward]

I also got the same problem.
Music crashes on exit, that is it will play Ok until I hit
escape
or exit on my remote.

Hi everyone, great progress on Freevo! I finally got
remote working today. I had been mistakenly naming
lircrc file as .lircrc instead of without period.

I noticed that ut looks like files can be deleted now
in freevo. I haven't tried it yet and want to know if
files should have special permissions in order to have
them deleted.

Also, I noticed that I have music lockups when playing
music quite often. I then have to either reboot or
remotely kill processes. Here ere some things that
show up in Webmin when it locked up.

Re: [Freevo-users] Recording time is off by 2 hours???

[dmezzetti]

I had a similar problem. TV.xml was correct and my KDE clock showed the 
correct time, but my system
clock was wrong. I noticed that the command clock gives me another time 
than the KDE clock. If you already
checked  clock command then I can't help.

Edward schrieb:

I'm trying to configure freevo1.3.2-pre-4
It gives me a strange problem when scheduling a recording:
the guide (TV.xml) has correct time in it, and computer's
clock is correct, time zone seems to be Ok (New York), but
the recording times are off.
For example, I tried to schedule a recording at 20:00.
The on-screen message correctly listed "2003-06-08 20:00
.."
But here is a snip from freevo.record.lst:

2003-06-08 21:00:00,1800,/usr/local/bin/mencoder -snip- -o
/mnt/video/06-08_09:00_-_The_Simpsons.avi ,2 WNYFLP

The recording shifted 1 hour into the future.
Finally here is a snip from from freevo_record.log

started at Sun Jun  8 20:20:00 2003
Got 2 entries in the schedule:
Got old item: "#2003-06-08 -snip- WNYFLP"

Parsed entry 1: "2003-06-08 22:00:00 1800
/usr/local/bin/mencoder -snip-
/mnt/video/06-08_09:00_-_The_Simpsons.avi "
Done, exiting

One more hour.

Any ideas???

Thank you,

[Freevo-users] idea for a music repeat function

[fleet44]

since i don't know python i just explain how it 
could work.
first you put all filenames of a directory or which 
are in a playlist in one string-array. then for playing back those files you use 
for example a for statement. for normal playback it would just go through the 
array and play one file after another and stop after the last item is played. 
now you could easily implement a repeat function. you just have to put an if 
statement in the for statement that jumps to the first item when the counter 
goes one step further as the array has indexes. i would really appreciate 
comments and critics if its not applicable for 
freevo.

It's not possible. Mplayer can't restart a movie at the last
position. I could get the current time before stopping, but starting
mplayer with -ss is way of (e.g. I say for a DVD to start at minute
20 and mplayer starts at 35). -ss only works for avis.

Version -pre4 works out of the box. Just set dislplay to dxr3 and rock

However, sorry to disappoint you, but your system is way too slow for
any practical (movies) use with the dxr3. (Sadly know it because I

If you're running under framebuffer mode, you get a nice penguin 
on the top left of your screen during the bootup sequence. (after
any vendor splash screen put up by the bootloader).

It's text output in a graphics mode console. Macs and SUN workstations 
run inherently in framebuffer mode, there's no text mode available.
Maybe someone else can explain this better.

[Freevo-users] rbg scart and framebuffer console

[Rudi Lindl]

hi,

sorry, with the last message something got wrong with the subject. So here
again:
i just assembled a vga2scart adapter it works fine. Great picture
qualtity. But i still have some questions:
1. I tried several grafik cards
and my ati mobility 9000 does only provid a min. pixelclock of 20Mhz :(
Does anyone know how to adjust the modeline to achive a proper pal
picture?
2. With my very old ati rage64 everyting works fine with XFree.
But i want to user freevo in fb-mode. I already adjusted my
/etc/fb.modes but whenever i add "laced  ture" an error occurs. here my
fb.mode entry:
mode "pal"
  geometry 768 576 768 576 8
  timings 67796 80 16 37 6 80 6
  laced true
  hsync low
  vsync low
endmode
3. is it possible to boot directly into the desired fbmode?
I added follwoing lines to my lilo.conf but it does not work:
vga=792
append="hda=scsi hdb=scsi hdc=scsi hdd=scsi hde=scsi hdf=scsi hdg=scsi
hdh=scsi apm=power-off nomce video=atyfb:pixclk:67796,xres:768,yres:576,
depth:16,left:80,right:16,hslen:80,upper:37,lower:6,vslen:6"

interlace and hsync and vsync are missing but the other values are correct
because they work with fbset but not with lilo


thx,
rudi

[Freevo-users] Freevo+DXR3: ffmpeg problem

[Rafael Torres]

Hi there,
 
I am trying to set up Freevo in my Linux 
box.
Because I have an DXR3 that I want to use 
as the TV output, I am following the Wiki documentation on how to configure 
Freevo to use DXR3.
 
The part on configure DXR3 drivers(?) in 
the system went fine.
But when I try to compile ffmeg I keep 
getting a segmentation fault error.
Could any one help me?
My dist is Mandrake 8.1 on a AMD K6II-500 
CPU. 
ffmpeg version is the one mentioned in 
Wiki.
 
Is there any other way to put freevo and 
DXR3 together?
 
Thx

Re: [Freevo-users] Freevo downloads on SF

[Wan Tat Chee]

Hmm. I don't think that is possible to put a short description with the
filename for the Sourceforge download site. However, I'll add some info in
the Release Notes (accessed when clicking on the version number on top)
for future releases.

If you'd downloaded it, you can also do a 'rpm -qpil freevo-boot*' to
see the RPM description.

Basically freevo-boot provide some scripts for booting the system into a
standalone freevo box. I don't use the scripts myself, so there might be
some additional work needed to set it up correctly.
