Re: [Freevo-users] SLACKWARE 10.1 packages
The link doesn't work for me. Also, what version of freevo will this install? latest 1.x or 2.x /cvs series? Great work though... Wish I could test it out.

Re: [Freevo-users] changing a dvd while running freevo
I had covered this issue lately in the WIKI. Either you install submount or supermount. The mandrake distribution comes default with supermount http://freevo.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/doc/TipsAndTricks#head-1d05cdb982531dee65b0f3d20548b880722069ae Submount needs only a additional kernel module and some experiments with parameters in /etc/fstab Supermount needs a patched kernel HTH Geert On Tue, 26 Jul 2005 11:44 am, Jake Briggs wrote: you dont need to mount a dvd to play it. eject can be used with EJECT mapped to a button on the remote, or . on your keyboard.

For example, I just watched a movie, and I want to watch another. Do i have to exit freevo, umount the dvd, eject the dvd, then insert the new one, then run freevo again? Or can freevo do this sort of thing automatically (well, apart from the 'insert a new one' part :) ). I was just going to configure the supermount stuff last night, but then I thought I had better ask, maybe freevo has some issues when using supermount ?

Re: [Freevo-users] changing a dvd while running freevo
Greet- I think using something like submount/supermount is just a bad idea in this case. Freevo handles VCD/CD/DVD just fine without any kind of mounting madness outside of freevo.

The Perl equivalent of the Python/C API, called perlxs, is horrid beast which is in no way friendly to beginners. Sprinkling perlxs examples in this tutorial will only bring out insanity. I'll spare you. I continue to be impressed with Python's C API.

Ok, do the following.
plugin.activate('audio.mplayervis')
you will also need to install pygoom (http://freevo.sf.net/pygoom/)

[Freevo-users] directfb 0.9.22 (Matrox G450) freevo 1.5.3 errors
I have been trying to get Freevo 1.5.3 working using directfb 0.9.22, and my
Matrox G450 video card, but I am unable to figure out what is wrong. I am
running Slackware 10.1 (kernel 2.4.29).
SDL 1.2.8 successfully detected DirectFB (I checked the config.log).
pygame seems to build install successfully also.
I am also able to run mplayer using -vo dfbmga directfb, but freevo just
will not run, here is the output:
Error: TV_RECORD_DIR not set
Please set TV_RECORD_DIR to the directory, where recordings should be stored
or remove the tv plugin. Autoset variable to /root.
Error: VIDEO_SHOW_DATA_DIR not found
ROM_DRIVES: Auto-detected and added ('/mnt/cdrom', '/dev/cdrom', 'CD-1')
Can't find lsdvd. DVD support will be limited and maybe not
all discs are detected. Please install lsdvd, you can get it
from http://acidrip.thirtythreeandathird.net/lsdvd.html
After installing it, you should run 'freevo cache --rebuild'
Please run 'freevo cache'
