Re: [Freevo-users] PB installing addons

2005-01-28 Thread Stéphane Lavirotte
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.

Sorry, but does this mean you have no solution to this issue?
Any possible workaround for now? (Moving python files manually to some dir,
or so?)

PS : I'm using 1.5.1 and there is already the freevo is not defined...
error when doing freevo install freevo-froggies.

Hello,
I'm one of the froggies author, but I can answer you ;)
With 1.5.3, I got the same problem installing any of the plugins I used
(hddtemp, encoding, weather, ...)
I've got the following error:
---
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File /usr/local/freevo/src/helpers/install.py, line 101, in ?
os.path.walk('tmp', util.fileops.match_files_recursively_helper,
all_files)
  File /usr/lib/python2.3/posixpath.py, line 282, in walk
func(arg, top, names)
  File /usr/local/freevo/src/util/fileops.py, line 252, in
match_files_recursively_helper
if dirname[dirname.rfind('/'):][1] == '.':
IndexError: string index out of range
--
If I retry to install a plugin, I've got the message directory tmp
exists, please remove it. And if I remove it, the previous error ;)
I use debian distro with freevo src package.
Sincerely,
Stéphane

Hello,
Concerning the freevo froggies plugin, I have the same problem, I think
mailing the author would solve the problem. 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.
Gis.

Re: [Freevo-users] Xine plugin

2005-01-28 Thread Tanja Striepling
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...
Good luck

Tanja

 Hi all
 Freevo (1.5.2) keeps saying that I have to upgrade xine-ui, but i already 
 have the newest version. I'm struck...
 
 I just hate mplayer plus i'm having the (well known) audio delay...
 
 Running debian, kernel 2.6.10
 
 Thanx

Re: [Freevo-users] UK / bttv / tvtime tribulations

2005-01-28 Thread Jesper Mathiassen
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...

[Freevo-users] Two Questions

2005-01-28 Thread Jake
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.
Thanks,
Jake

[Freevo-users] Recording from satellite/cable box with SPDIF IN

2005-01-28 Thread Stefan Wrobel
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!
