[Freevo-users] CVS freevo crashes on load
Dear All, First please let me thank everyone for freevo and apologize for posting to both maillists but I am new to this... I have checked out the latest CVS of freevo and everytime I try to run freevo (either in X11 or with directfb through SDL) i get the splashscreen, the menu appears for under 0.1s and then freevo exits. I have attached the log below. There appears to be no error or sometimes I have received a segfault from pygame? Does anyone have any clue to why this would happen?

[Freevo-users] No sound or tunability in tvtime when called from freevo
Hi, Sorry if this post is a duplicate. I'm not sure if the first one was posted correctly, so... I just installed freevo on a Fedora Core 3 Machine. I have a Hauppauge winTV go tv card I can watch tv get sound perfectly when using 'tvtime' as a standalone app. I configged local_conf.py the best I could after reading the howtos on freevo.sourceforge.net. In order to config the channels in the TV_CHANNELS variable, I used a perl script (link) on the xmltv listings (I got a login at zap2it and have a cron job setup that uses tv_grab_na_dd to download station lists into my home directory as /home/daneel/listings.xml. I fired up tvtime it reads the channels from that file well, so I configged freevo to read that as well) and copied the output into the variable at local_conf.py. Nevertheless, when I click on a particular program that's being broadcasted, tvtime shows up blank with no signal on channel 0. I can't change the channels using my keyboard keys or anything. The config files are localted here: http://www.ph.utexas.edu/~daneel/freevo/freevo.conf http://www.ph.utexas.edu/~daneel/freevo/local_conf.py output of xmltv2freevo.pl is : http://www.ph.utexas.edu/~daneel/freevo/channels.conf Which is cut-pasted into local_conf.py I'm new to freevo and it seems to be just what the doctor ordered. I'd really appreciate some advice as to how to get tvtime to work properly within freevo I installed freevo from the rpms in 'freevo' repo for yum in FC3 freevo-1.5.3-1_fc2 Thanks for your attention. Regards, AR

Apologies again. Forgot to post the link for the perl script I used to render the channels from my xmltv xml channel list.

If you use xine you can also do that, with mplayer you can't. Are we talking about live broadcast video or something like VoD? (video on demand) I'm currently experimenting on doing VOD(RTSP Streams using live.com) using VLC and it works great. Although it needs to use VLC to actually playback the stream. Mplayer is _supposed_ to support playing rtsp streams, (and a Poster - Andreas Lorensen) mentioned that he can do it under freevo using mplayer.), but for my case, playing the streams under mplayer, it will start to jerk after 5-10 seconds and then it complains about dropped frames. (I've tried -dropframe and -harddropframe and both doesn't work). I don't believe xine can play rtsp streams. (I've googled) 3) OMFGG, if freevo had a TV player interface to a vlc streaming server running then I could pause/rewind TV in freevo Yes, and we already have a patch for mplayer to support chunk file playing and we will put that in xine, too. Please explain what this is and where I can find this chunk file. (I searched through mplayer's manual page and it only gave me refs to audio density and verbosity) I think the there are the following requirements, * A VLC (running as a client) plugin for TV input * A remote interface so the play/pause/rewind/fast forward buttons work on tv Arg. The client is only used for watching and you send play/pause over the network. I hope they are using RTSP. Or is it your idea. If so: don't! Timeshifting should be handled in the client, not the streaming server. VLC server running VOD is the current setup. I've not tried embedding / asking freevo to open up vlc. I'll give it a shot. -- Ow Mun Heng Gentoo/Linux on DELL D600 1.4Ghz 1.5GB RAM 98% Microsoft(tm) Free!!
