[Freevo-users] Recordserver problem

2005-09-29 Thread Henrik Farre 
I can't get Freevo to record anything. Live TV works fine with MPlayer,
but the recordserver only produces a *.fxd file but no recording.

Output from recordserver-1000.log and my /etc/freevo/local_conf.py is
attached.

Comment DEBUG=1 and try to record again. Long time ago but IRC DEBUG
has to be disabled to record something with a ivtv card with 1.5.3.

Re: [Freevo-users] tvtime tuning troubles

 Hi.  I can use tvtime outside of freevo to watch TV just fine, but
I'm having trouble getting it to tune correctly channel when using the
TV guide in freevo.  I'm using tvtime 1.0.1 and freevo 1.5.3.  When I
press enter on a particular entry in the TV guide (for a show
currently playing), this is the command that is used to launch tvtime:

ChildApp.__init__(), pid=3714, app= /usr/bin/tvtime  -k -I 640 -n NTSC
-d /dev/video0 -f freevo -c 0 -i 0 -M, poll=-1

 The problem(s) are two-fold.  First, it is passing a -f freevo
command when it should be -f us-cable.  Second, the actual channel
being passed -c 0 is lower by a variable amount than the channel
that should be passed.  For example, if I choose the lowest channel
number that I can tune into (channel 2), then the argument to tvtime
should be -c 2 (which works from the command line), but -c 0 is
being passed.

 The relevant line in tvtime.py is (I believe):

command = '%s %s -k -I %s -n %s -d %s -f %s -c %s -i %s' % (config.TVTIME_CMD,
  outputplugin,
  w,
  s_norm,
  cf_device,
  'freevo',
  mychan,
  cf_input)
 

I don't know how tvtime works but... with mplayer TV passthrough in the 
local_conf.py you just use the variable channel not mychan.  Check 
the comments in the VCR_CMD section of the config file.


For us-cable that should be pulled from the freevo.conf.  It's 
accessible in local_conf.py by using the variable chanlist.


-Scott


 I can easily change the 'freevo' to 'us-cable', but I'm not sure how
to get the channels to work properly.  I tried looking through the
mailing list archives, but I didn't see anything that solved my
problem.

 Thanks,
   Sunil
