[Freevo-users] global mplayer args
Hi, how do I set clobal args for mplayer? I'm trying to set up dts/ac3/pcm passthrough to an external amp. In mplayer I need to add -ac hwdts,hwac3,pcm, to the command line, but I'd rather not have to add it to each file type that mplayer plays?

Re: [Freevo-users] weather plugin hangs for non-root users
Hi, It seems to me the weather plugin has a bug. It creates read only files in the directories /var/cache/freevo/weathercode/data belonging to the user. If you login as another user and want to update the weather Freevo will hang as it attempts to update the file. You have to manually set the permissions of the files to make it work again.

by selecting a show in the TV Guide it goes to a black screen than
bounces back. Here is the error output:

I solved the other problem I posted to the list about the missing twisted.web.microdom package. I solved this by doing emerge twisted-web twisted-xish This gave me the needed python packages. Now I am running into another error. I still can get to the TV guide to watch a show, but it says recordserver is down. When I try and select a show on the TV guide this is what it says: (111, 'Connection refused') epg_xmltv.py (101): XMLTV, reading cached file (/var/cache/freevo/TV.xml.pickled) epg_xmltv.py (129): XMLTV, got cached guide (version 6).

I think it may be some bad configuration settings Any idea why it is refusing the connection? This also may be important. When I run 'freevo tv_grab' it works fine up until the very end where it says this: Scheduling favorites for recording: record_client: connection error Thanks in advance, -Joe --- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects Teams * Testing QA Security * Process Improvement Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf ___ Freevo-users mailing list Freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freevo-users

Not sure if it's any help to anyone but I had the same error message trying to install Freevo , And yes mmpython was installed. python setyp.py install checking for mmpython... not found Turned out I had forgot to install PyXML which was the cause of the problem.

The problem was that I needed to have the command freevo recordserver running in the background. unfortunately this is not documented anywhere, at least anywhere that I found, and it should be for us n00bs :-) --- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects Teams * Testing QA Security * Process Improvement Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf ___ Freevo-users mailing list Freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freevo-users
