Re: [Freevo-users] How do I use the btaudio kernel module to PLAY or capture sound?
Capturing and playback both depend on the application. The main things to remember is that the btaudio device you'll probably use will need to be captured at 32khz, not 44khz which is the default. I used mp1e to record like this: mp1e -F 3 -p /dev/dsp1 -a 0 -S 32000 -s 352x240 -G 352x240 -o output.mpg This gave me flawlessly synced audio and decent video (only 352x240) on a Celeron 400. I don't watch live TV much so I never tried to get it to work with mplayer, but something similar would likely work.

That was unnecessary. From the Python library reference::
encode([encoding[,errors]])
Return an encoded version of the string. Default encoding is the current
default string encoding. errors may be given to set a different error
handling scheme. The default for errors is 'strict', meaning that encoding
errors raise a ValueError. Other possible values are 'ignore' and
'replace'. New in version 2.0.
Basically, to get the same behaviour as you created you can just use 'ignore'
as the second argument to encode(). If you use 'replace', the character will
be replaced with '?'. I'd suggest 'replace', but that's a personal
preference.
> 2. The listings contain a tag, which freevo does not know. There is
Freevo doesn't know that tag because it's invalid. The author of the
grabber needs to fix that. In fact, you should probably tell the author to
validate the XML output against the XMLTV DTD. I highly recommend pyRXP due
to it's amazing speed: http://www.reportlab.com/xml/pyrxp.html
To use pyRXP to validate, make sure the DTD is in the current directory and
run this script on the file you want to validate:
- ---cut---
#!/usr/bin/env python
import sys, pyRXP
def handleMessage(s):
sys.stderr.write(s+'\n')
if __name__ == '__main__':
if len(sys.argv) < 2:
sys.stdout.write("Must specify file")
sys.exit(2)
p = pyRXP.Parser()
p.srcName = "XMLTV pyRXP"
p.warnCB = handleMessage
p.parse(open(sys.argv[1]).read())
- ---cut---

Any code using rating for anything other than straight text display should be
checking the system attribute.

I highly recommend using numeric timezones in grabbers. Some of the grabbers
from the official XMLTV distribution do this already and the others will be
converted soon. Some of those strings are conflicting, such as my timezone,
Canada/Atlantic, and Saudi Arabia's, both of which are 'AST'.

Re: [Freevo-users] Using Different Cards
Peter, I have a freevo box that uses an NVidia card (Verto something or other.) I have used TV-out on that card with the framebuffer (booting from Movix) and from x11 using the NVidia drivers from their website. The difference in quality between the two is dramatic. The framebuffer showed artifacts (hard to describe, but it kind of looked like a wavy line occasionally appearing in the picture on the TV) but the X11 with the NVidia driver is unbelieveably good. This morning I played a VCD that seemed noisy when played on my DVD player and it looked noticeably better. The noise didn't seem to be there anymore. I would try both.

[Freevo-users] XMLTV from TV-Movie...
Hi, yesterday, I have installed the grabber from Ben Bucksch which uses the data sources of TV-Movie to create XMLTV files. At the end, it worked, but there are some findings I'd want to share. 1. The listings sometimes contain real unicode characters, i.e. characters with a number outside range(256). This causes freevo not to accept the listing. I then wrote an own function __encode in epg_xmltv.py which looks roughly like this: def __encode(str,code): try: return str.encode(code) except UnicodeError: result = '' for ch in str: try: result = result + ch.encode(code) except UnicodeError: pass return result Then, I have replaced every occurrence of encode in epg_xmltv.py with my own function. After that, it worked, ommitting the characters which seem not to be displayable by freevo. 2. The listings contain a tag, which freevo does not know. There is some coding in xmltv.py, which cares for the tags and there is something like try: ... except NameError: return 'Error...' But the error I have got was an AttributeError. I have added another except AttributeError to make this work. 3. The listings contain a Tag like 16. It seems that freevo has a problem with that. I deleted the handling of this tag in epg_xmltv.py to make this work. (freevo does not seem to display the rating anyway. 4. The listings contain the time in the following format: 200309042015 CET But this is IMHO wrong, it should be 200309042015 CEST Then, the coding with strptime.strptime in epg_xmltv.py works correctly.

No. You use 1.3.4 or an older cvs version. Only current cvs has
file_ops. You have delete for movies because I maved it from VideoItem

[Freevo-users] AverTV bad reception.
Howdy, I have recently started playing around with freevo. So far I have tv listings working fine. I am able to view most of the channels in my area (us-bcast) but reception is extremely bad. Is there some fine tunning I can do to improve reception? I know the signal coming in is good 'cause when I connect the coax to the TV I get great reception. Could it be something in one of the many config files? Just ask which info you need from my files and I will post. thanx. ez __ McAfee VirusScan Online from the Netscape Network.

I am using... debian woody with kernel based on 2.4.20 tv: terratec cinergy 600 (saa7134 with v4l2) video: some asus-7700 (nvidia, nvidia drivers installed) I am running freevo both in X11 and in vesa framebuffer mode from tty1. Perhaps there are other devices needing root privileges.

AW: [Freevo-users] autostart
-Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Freitag, 5. September 2003 00:59 An: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Betreff: [Freevo-users] autostart Hi there, i'm really new in linux and espacially in freevo ;o) i get freevo to work...great...but i can't start it automatically on bootup. I saw it working on my friends homepc a few days ago...so, is it my fault? I set "export USER=username", cause i found something in the net while i'm searching about this problem. But now i have other failures there: syntax error :o( Thx, for the help! Sterni Hi, my system autostarts freevo without X11. I have written a script which contains login -f thorsten In /etc/inittab, one of the gettys is started using this script instead of the normal login (there is an option for getty for doing this). In ~thorsten/.bash_profile you can just insert something like ./freevo to start freevo.
