[Freevo-users] shift tv
Hi. I'm finishing the install of my freevo. I'm using 1.5.3. I was wondering about pausing tv (shift tv?). Is it possible to do it? Here's a piece of my local.conf.py: TV_RECORD_DIR = '/mnt/video' TV_SETTINGS = 'pal television europe-west /dev/video0' TV_DRIVER = 'v4l2' TV_DEVICE = '/dev/video0' TV_INPUT = 0 FREEVO_CACHEDIR= '/home/mythtv/.freevo' TIMESHIFT_BUFFER_SIZE = 500 TIMESHIFT_ENCODE_CMD = 'mp1e -m3 -c%s -p%s -r14,100' %(TV_SETTINGS.split( [3],AUDIO_INPUT_DEVICE) TIMESHIFT_BUFFER = '/mnt/video/buffer.mpeg' TV_CHANNEL_PROG = './chchan %(channel)s %(norm)s %(freqtable)s' TV_DATEFORMAT = '%e-%b' # Day-Month: 11-Jun TV_TIMEFORMAT = '%H:%M' # Hour-Minute 14:05 TV_DATETIMEFORMAT = '%A %b %d %I:%M %p' # Thursday September 24 8:54 am - I use mplayer for tv, as tvtime doesn't work for me. It works as a stand-alone application, but not as a plugin. It just says 'no signal', and I get a blue screen with the name and number of the channels. Well, I press space bar and the image stops. Press again, and it goes on. But it jumps to real time tv again. While stopped, I try to find the buffer file, but I can't find it. I have mp1e installed, but perhaps it isn't well configured. Well, that's all I can say. I'd like very much to make this work and not having to use mythtv, as I think freevor is simpler to use and smoother to run.

I've tried freevo-1.5.2, freevo-1.5.3, from packages and from source. Always
the same. The problem might be related to the font configuration.
In /usr/share/freevo/fonts, I have:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 65932 Aug 15 2003 Vera.ttf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 63208 Aug 15 2003 VeraBI.ttf

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 55032 Aug 15 2003 VeraMoBI.ttf

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 58716 Feb 27 16:32 verabd.ttf <- this one copied by me
I have even put a symlink skin/fonts->fonts. It doesn't work.
The system is a debian sid, but with X.org from ubuntu, as this is the only
way to have 3d rendering. The problem is that ubuntu gives another kind of
problems. So if there is any thing I could (ugly hacks are welcome too)...
Thanks
Alberto

Re: [Freevo-users] Freevo and VNC
Wouldn't it be easier to do it with X or Xnest ? From a remote box, you can issue : X (or Xnest) :n -query hostname Where n is the new session and hostname is the name (or ip) of the box running freevo. If you're behind a firewall, you need to open TCP 6002 insted of VNC port (I guess it's 5900). Alternatively, you can use rdesktop... VNC is heavy, bloathed and unsecure (IMO). Plus it's slow and unstable... Try Xnest it's really better (and it's linux native) !!!
