[Freevo-users] add a BT878 to a G400-TV for capture?
I'm helping a friend choose components for his Freevo box. We have obtained a G400-TV, I've verified that it works great just like my G400-DH for framebuffer/mga_vid (after I gave mga_vid.o mga_ram_size=16). Should I recommend he get a BT878 in addition?

Re: [Freevo-users] add a BT878 to a G400-TV for capture?
I have the exact setup you describe. IIRC the G400-TV marvel box was not very well supported under Linux. Just like when you decided to get the Matrox because of it's superb support under Linux I decided to shell out the extra $20.00 and get a bt878 off eBay because it's the best supported chipset under Linux. I'm sure you could get the MGA running, but I'd be willing to be the $20.00 for the BT878 will be worth it for ease of setup and quality of drivers. --Joe I'm helping a friend choose components for his Freevo box.

Ok at fist i enabled this with the XINE_COMMAND = variable but found
out it is hardcoded. ;-) So i was already running with --no-lirc and
--stdctrl enabled. But there is something going on what i can't understand.
See http://members.home.nl/r.winder/xine for logs.
Basicly lirc xine with DVD works ok but lirc events and avi files doesn't
seem to cooperate. Commands passed on to xine are fine and control is
given to freevo but there seem to be no eventhandler active for the lirc
events. I see some rc.set_context('video') stuff in mplayer.py and i wonder if
that has something do with it. Thinking out loud here, so bare with me.
It should work as it is, but I will look into it tomorrow. Do mpg
files work. AFAIK there are some divx out there that forces xine into
a deadlock.
Updated via cvs again and tried mpeg, mpg any format and there is
still no lirc event control over xine, DVD is working fine though. I did set
the debuglevel a bit higher and saw all kinds of groovy traces hoping that helps a bit.

can you send me your stationlist.xml?
I wrote the new tvtime plugin stuff and have never seen this before. It
would be nice to know what the parser is objecting to.
