Re: [Freevo-users] PB installing addons
Hi, A bad hack to suppress the problem is to comment the following lines in utils/fileops.py (ligne 252-255) like this: def match_files_recursively_helper(result, dirname, names): help function for match_files_recursively #if dirname[dirname.rfind('/'):][1] == '.': ## ignore directories starting with a dot ## Note: subdirectories of that dir will still be searched #return result for name in names: fullpath = vfs.join(dirname, name) result.append(fullpath) return result Then suppress tmp dir in your freevo directory and try again to install any plugin (froggies or anyother). For the moment, I don't have any idea why these added lines introduce a bug. Stéphane gislain wautriche wrote: Sorry, but does this mean you have no solution to this issue?

See on the plugin page on freevo's web site to find out the email address (though, I should contact him also :) ) About the thumbnails problem, I experienced the same stuff, It's due to Mandrake 10.1 pil python library being crap (I just bet you're using this distro ;) ) Check out : http://freevo.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/doc/Mandrake Don't be shy to drop me a line (in French) if you can't get out of this.

Re: [Freevo-users] Xine plugin
Hi What is the version of xine freevo detects? You should find something like: xine.py (114): detect xine version 9903 in freevo's output. Maybe you have to turn on debug first by putting the following two lines at the begin of your local_conf.py: DEBUG = 1 CHILDAPP_DEBUG = 1 I remember that some time ago I had a similar problem. I found that freevo was not able to detect the version of xine at all (version = 0). The reason was that one of the options I put in XINE_COMMAND and XINE_ARGS_DEF was not available and therefor xine returned a error messages from which freevo could not detemine the version. Hope it is that easy...

Re: [Freevo-users] UK / bttv / tvtime tribulations
tor, 27 01 2005 kl. 14:29 +, skrev Steven: As the plugin is quite experiemental thou (changing channel is a bit slow and dodgy) and I want to be able to record, I still need to have it configured for mplayer (mencoder). Actually, I found in the end that gentoo's emerge system hadn't configured mplayer with v4l2 support, so did that and got freevo as far as bringing up an untuned screen with mplayer set for tv. Reading up on mplayer I found that it requires frequencies for tv mode, so changed my config to include frequencies (unfortunately I'm at work at the moment and my ssh tunnel to home seems to have failed, so I can't paste). That worked, but i don't seem to be able to control mplayer when it's running as tv, all of the keys are mapped strangely (c and v don't change channel). I figure that these are mplayer's controls. Mplayer works fine with channel numbers, it just need a chanlist argument. Also the v4l2 problem might explain why other things dont work, if they use v4l1. This is certainly the case for me. I have a Pinnacle PCTV Rave, accessible with the bttv driver, however both v4l and v4l2 apis are accessible. using v4l however denies access to the tuner part, and is extreemly slow. the v4l2 however is amazingly fast and low on resource consumption (running tv fullscreen in 720x576 requires less than 25% cpu on my Athlon 700..) Following line is sufficient for tv-watching with mplayer: mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:device=/dev/video0:chanlist=europe- west:channel=6 you can change channels with h and k, upand down channel respectfully. Try that out :) I also have a nice mencoder command capable of recording fairly high- quality recordings on my somewhat low-end system, but get this working first :) Interestingly when I activated the tvtime plugin I realised that freevo updates my $HOME/.tvtime/tvtime.xml file each time it loads and uses the frequency table information. So tvtime works now using the frequencies, and displays some of the xmltv info on the screen when you change channel. My next problem really is figuring out how to fine tune the channels using frequencies, as fine tuning in xawtv and tvtime don't seem to write their configs using frequencies. Also, tvtime is passed the -I 768 parameter when it loads, meaning that it displays in 768x576. I can change freevo to run in this res, but my x server (using nv driver) will only allow me to run it in 800x600 (too big) or 640x480 (too small). I use the closed source nvidia driver as it gives slightly better framerates for dvd-playing and glx for games (My son loves to play games on the telly :) ), I use the custom modeline for [EMAIL PROTECTED] found in the wiki, which fit exactly to my screen. on top of freevo I use ratpoison window manager, which allow for hotkeys for terminals and other programs and auto resizes all applications to fullscreen, including tvtime, although I have not tested with freevo tvtime plugin... - Jesper -- PGP/GnuPG key available at http://www.control.aau.dk/~jsma00/pgpkey.txt signature.asc Description: Dette er en digitalt underskrevet brevdel
[Freevo-users] Two Questions
Hello, I have two problems left and I think my media machine will be exactly where I want it. 1) I can't play any ogg files. I am using Gentoo and have recompile Mplayer with the oggvorbis use flag and still won't play. It just scrolls thru the files looking for something to play. 2) I can't play DVD's from my DVD drive. It shows up in the movie main menu with DVD [Movie Title] but when I press play it goes to a black screen for a split sec then back to the movie main menu. Any help would be appriciated.

[Freevo-users] Recording from satellite/cable box with SPDIF IN
I haven't set up a Freevo box yet, but I was considering the option of using my satellite box (although I assume it would be the same way with cable) through an analog capture card (probably s-video in) for the video, but I figured why do analog audio capture if I can do digital. Most boxes (including my dish network satellite box) have SPDIF out, so is it possible to record 5.1 (or just pure digital 2.0) audio through an SPDIF input on a sound card using Freevo. I figured someone out there has to have tried this. Thanks! Stefan Wrobel --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IntelliVIEW -- Interactive Reporting Tool for open source databases.
