Re: [Freevo-users] cdburn.py
Wander, I've tried your version of cd_burn.py, and indeed got a coaster. Since I had some time left, and I have a few cheapycheap cd-r spindles, I tried to solve that problem (and I succeeded). Nero showed me that the cd was full of data tracks instead of audio tracks. So I added the option '-audio' to the cdrec_cmd. Now my cd player understands that it is in fact an audio cd, but instead of music, I only hear noise. When I play the files from /tmp/burnlist with mplayer, the songs sound normal. Mplayer also tells me it is using the PCM codec, so the file has to be a wave file.Just to be sure, I added '-srate 44100' to the mplayer line, but with no result. Funny thing is, that I tried to make a copy of a certain cd, where the first song starts with about 0,5 seconds of sound, then 4 seconds silence, and then starts playing. The burned cd, also has about 0,5 seconds of noise, than 4 seconds of silence, and then the noise starts again, so it seems like the wave file is not interpreted like a wave file. Next, I tried renaming all files, simply adding '.wav' at the end of each file. This works, when starting cdrecord from the command-line. So I edited the cd_burn.py again, changed this line: os.rename('/tmp/burnlist/audiodump.wav', _('/tmp/burnlist/%s' % os.path.basename(a))) to those two: rename_wav = '%s.wav' % (config.os.path.basename(a)) os.rename('/tmp/burnlist/audiodump.wav', _('/tmp/burnlist/%s' % rename_wav)) Problem solved! Damn I'm good! :D Thinking about the fact that I have _zero_ programming experience, makes me even feel better about myself right now!! ;) As a finishing touch, God created the Dutch You're Dutch too aren't you? Figured because of the /dev/brander in your config ;) Anyway, I changed this line also: curl2.findFromDirMatches(suffix=['mp3','ogg','wav']) to: curl2.findFromDirMatches(suffix=['mp3','flac','ogg','wav']) Because I ripped all my albums to Flac files. Now the cdburn plugin works great on all of my audio files! Thank you VERY much for your help!!(I've attached my edited version of the cd_burn.py) Using Tomcat but need to do more?

Re: [Freevo-users] rebuilding my freevo box..
MIke- as to a comment on the slackware side things it is also what I use and happen to have built packages for( they are also do for an update here shortly). It works very reliably for me and has very little over system over head. That would be my one worry with ubuntu is system over head on older hardware.

Traditionlly I used Gentoo, but I think it's just oo hard for non-full time linux ppl like myself to keep up with. I build the base about 3 years ago and have had to rebuild the kernel a number of times (like 40) since then due to new hardware bits coming in which didn't have kernel support and so forth, or old hardware like the Matrox G400 which no vendor chooses to support out of the boot CD anymore (TV out that is). Also, I'd like to try X on my new build and can't get it to build on my gentoo box, and don't have the time to debug so my plan is to go with a distribution that *just works. Currently Ubuntu is my choice. Anyone not like ubuntu? Anyone have issues running pre-packaged/built applications after kernel re-compiling? Anyone have any other comments to add about running freevo and what o/s to run it from?

Re: [Freevo-users] PVR-350 and Mplayer
Ben- I am not at my box right now but I want to say you need to confirm you OVR card. I ahd a heck of time setting mine up. It seems to have been an isseu with IV-TV that was cuasing hte problem. Not where I can check my box right now, but I would have a look at the message logs and see what they say.

Which was the first purpose of installing the Freevo. I'd like to give it another go at configuring my PVR-350 to work with Freevo. Gave it a some testing, and this is what I have so far: using ivtv 0.4.5 using a Matrox G450 in dfmga as output the card loads fine and cat /dev/video0 /tmp/test.mpg gives me a video mplayer is able to playback. So I'm guessing the card is working fine. When I try to do a mplayer /dev/video0 though it fails miserably. cache stays at 0 mplayer version is: MPlayer dev-CVS-060414-18:32-3.4.5 (C) 2000-2006 MPlayer Team when watching TV with freevo, it also fails. Tried running the mplayer command freevo tries to run, and same results: /usr/bin/mplayer -vo dfbmga -fs -autosync 100 -nolirc -autoq 100 -fs -slave -cache 8192 /dev/video0 Anyone have any ideas?
