If you start the playback long after the recording started, mplayer will need to make an index (option -idx), so it will take some time to start. I think that I'll just look for another codec with good quality and good search capabilities. mpeg/mpeg2? Disk space is not that important.

Re: [Freevo-users] [ANNOUNCE] freevo-vdr-0.5 for Freevo-1.5.4
Great work...
I have tried to find time to update my vdr_xine plugin but there is so
many projects and so little time :-)
I could never decide how to map freevos EXIT event to vdrs BACK and EXIT
events.
The best solution would be to map EXIT to EXIT when vdr is does not have
any menus displayed and map EXIT to BACK when vdr is in any menu, but
how do we do this?
Do you plan to upload your plugin to the freevo addons page?

Sure, it's the CVS version :-). When you have some time for it you might want to add those http://www.muresan.de/freevo/vdrpylib.diff if you think the're needed.

[Freevo-users] [ANNOUNCE] freevo-vdr-0.5 for Freevo-1.5.4
Hi,
after succeeding to make VDR happily work under df_xine starting from
the plugin version Mike Lewis sent some weeks ago to the users ML, I did
some hacking around and the result is a packaged "freevo-vdr" add-on (I
think originally called vdr-xine by Ove Risberg).
>From HISTORY, what I've done since Mike's modifications:
- migrated to use http://sourceforge.net/projects/vdrpylib and therefore
renamed internally to "vdrtv.py";
- added new VDR keys mapped to spare or new (which you can add in your
freevo freevo lircrc) LIRC events, see README for the complete list;
- added detection if the "freevo" VDR plugin is loaded in VDR, allowing
to switch off VDR's remotes via SVDRP (thus making compiling VDR without
LIRC or KBD support for proper operation whithin Freevo unnecessary) and
then VDR's remotes will only be enabled during key-presses from Freevo.
If the VDR plugin "freevo" which provides this functionality is not
detected at initialization, a warning is printed.
- re-added Ove's original setup.py and MANIFEST.in with little
odifications, added separate HISTORY, README and PKG-INFO files
>From README:
REQUIREMENTS:
- vdrpylib from http://sourceforge.net/projects/vdrpylib installed
normally by "python setup.py install"
- a running vdr installation (of course :)
- when using tvtime/SVDRP: (Full featured DVB cards)
- set SVDRP Timeout in vdrs OSD to 0
- make sure to setup svdrphosts.conf correctly
- add the color buttons (YELLOW,GREEN,RED,BLUE) to freevo's lirc file
- optional, but yet very useful, add the buttons which are missing
from the right column below to freevo's lirc file:
VDR key: | Freevo LIRC event
==
'RECORDINGS' : Event('RECORDINGS'),
'CHANNELS' : Event('CHANNELS'),
'AUDIO' : Event('LANG'),
'SCHEDULE' : Event('GUIDE'),
'TIMERS' : Event('TIMERS'),
'SETUP' : Event('SETUP'),
'COMMANDS' : Event('EJECT'),
- when using SVDRP, to avoid keystroke conflicts and not having to
bother with building VDR without LIRC and KBD support, use the new
"vdr-freevo" VDR plugin and load it with -P'freevo'. The plugin will be
detected by freevo's VDR plugin and then VDR's remotes will only be
enabled during key-presses from Freevo. If the VDR plugin "freevo" which
provides this functionality is not detected at initialization, a warning
is printed.
- for XINE (Budget DVB cards, streaming client)
- when using xine as a VDR decoder, the xine plugin for vdr. Start
vdr with -P'xine -r'
INSTALL:
- Unpack and run "python setup.py install" in the main source directory;
- Activatee the plugin in local_conf.py with
plugin.activate('vdr_interface')
plugin.activate('vdrtv', level=5)
- Configure the plugin by these variables in local_conf.py:
VDR_VIEWER_PLUGIN='xine'
VDR_USE_SVDRP=1
VDR_SVDRP_HOST='localhost'
VDR_SVDRP_PORT=2001
VDR_SVDRP_ALWAYSCLOSE=0
VDR_XINE_PIPE_PATH='vdr://var/vdr/xine/stream#demux:mpeg_pes'
You can download the Freevo plugin from
http://www.muresan.de/freevo/freevo-vdr-0.5.tgz
And the highly recommended VDR "freevo" plugin
http://www.muresan.de/freevo/vdr-freevo-0.0.1.tgz
This one does no more than providing the remotes deactivation/activation
in VDR for now, and has an yet unnecessary menu entry on VDR's main
menu, I will clean that up. In a later version, this plugin will
hopefully supress VDR's native OSD and we'll render it nicely on Freevo
side, directly in kaa.xine ;-). You might need to patch your VDR (for
sure up to vdr-1.3.36) before compiling this plugin, patch included in
the archive.
For Gentoo users:
Instead of getting the archives, you could just put the following
ebuilds somewhere in your portage overlay:
http://www.muresan.de/freevo/vdrpylib-.ebuild under
../dev-python/vdrpylib
http://www.muresan.de/freevo/vdrpylib.diff under
../dev-python/vdrpylib/files; unmask with "-*" as this will checkout
from CVS;
http://www.muresan.de/freevo/freevo-vdr-0.5.ebuild under
../media-plugins/freevo-vdr; unmask with "~x86" and set the USE flag
"vdr_remotes_off" for making it dependent of the companion plugin on VDR
side and get rid of keystroke conflicts:
http://www.muresan.de/freevo/vdr-freevo-0.0.1.ebuild under
../media-plugins/vdr-freevo; unmask with "~x86" and don't forget to
patch your VDR first.
Have fun, feedback appreciated, thanks to all who helped me so far!
Lucian
P.S. Mike Lewis, you might want to detail your enhancments in the
HISTORY and maybe also in the README :-)

[Freevo-users] how to control the specific audio ctrl
Hi. I've the problem that normally mencoder, after recording a show from analog tv, don't "close" the audio ctrl and I can hear the sound from tv input after the recorded show. I solved this issue, including 'aumix -1 0' in the VCR_POST_REC. the problem now is that I don't know how let freevo use the single audio ctrl (PCM for mp3 and videofile, Line1 for TV, e.g.). If I have the Line1 set to 0, in order to hear something from tv input, I've to manually set it to 100(>0) in my local_conf.py I've set: AUDIO_DEVICE= '/dev/dsp' # e.g.: /dev/dsp0, /dev/audio, /dev/alsa/? # AUDIO_INPUT_DEVICE = '/dev/dsp1' # e.g.: /dev/dsp0, /dev/audio, /dev/alsa/? #MAJOR_AUDIO_CTRL= 'VOL' # Freevo takes control over one audio ctrl # 'VOL', 'PCM' 'OGAIN' etc. CONTROL_ALL_AUDIO = 1 # Should Freevo take complete control of audio MAX_VOLUME = 100 # Set what you want maximum volume level to be. DEFAULT_VOLUME = 85 # Set default volume level. TV_IN_VOLUME= 100 # Set this to your preferred level 0-100. # VCR_IN_VOLUME = 90 # If you use different input from TV DEV_MIXER = '/dev/mixer'# mixer device1 for TV, e.g.). thanks -- keep in mind the power of antani antani at gmail dot com www.orangeek.org --- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Tame your development challenges with Apache's Geronimo App Server.

I think I've found it out. Just set a low cache for avi files. I have 500 now and I have to wait just some seconds before the playback. But that's the key. If the file is smaller than the cache when you start the playback, the end of the file will go into the cache. If not, it's fine.
