[Freevo-users] Can't Record, Mencoder Errors

[Brandon Rader]

OK, I just got Grim Fandango, so I've been on the Windows side of
things just because at any moment, I could have a sudden urge to sit
down and play that game for four straight hours, so I haven't done
anything with Freevo for a while.   Because of that, I'm going to
reiterate my problem...  I can watch TV in Freevo fine, but I can't
record it.  It acts like it is, but when I go to watch it, I get errors
and the file turns out to be 0 bytes.  I think this is a problem with
mencoder.  If I test mencoder, I get something like this

No, not yet anyway, It is pretty, but not really right just yet. If
you want help with bug reports then go for it. Otherwise get ready for
an upgrade to 1.6. Duncan is doing good work there and has a few neat
things in store for us. I just upgrade to Slack 11 on my build box and
plan to spend the weekend test SVN of 1.6 and getting ready for 1.6 to
go stable so I can drop some slackware packages for it.

[Freevo-users] Freevo cache hangs.

[Ashley Dawkins]

Hi, got a problem that has me perplexed. When running ‘freevo
cache’, after processing all sub directories, the process hangs on the
root. The particulars are:

 

Directory is an NFS mount.

Path/folder structure is /movies//VIDEO_TS

All directories are processed apart from /movies which hangs
at 55% and I am unable to CTRL-C out and end up powering down the PC.

 

I have nothing in any logs, and have run an fsck locally on
the filesystem. ‘df –h’ shows 

 

Filesystem   
Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on

/dev/hda1
2.8G  2.4G  441M  85% /

/dev/hda5
3.8G  2.1G  1.8G  55% /UT2003

/dev/hda6
1.9G  197M  1.7G  11% /Karaoke

/dev/hda7
112G  101G   12G  90% /Movies

/dev/hda8 
33G   17G   16G  52% /Music

 

To check the freevo box, I telnetted to it while
running freevo cache, and saw no evidence of any filesystems running out of space,
which was my initial thought as to the cause of the problem.

 

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

 

Ashley.

Yes, that is why the recordserver is not fixed in 2.0, it is completly
rewritten. But we switches from xmlrpc to mbus, so you can't just use
the new recordserver.

_But_: it could be possible to use one tuner for recording
(recordserver) and one tuner for live tv. That should work.


But let us talk about this on freevo-devel please.

Can we alias --start --fg --verbose all with --debug?  Would be handy.

Cool, both around the same price. I guess the joypad would be more 
usefull though, as it could be used to control snes games and stuff.

I have some test code on my hd not checked it that uses kaa.cancas. I
will check it in after Tack finished the canvas rewriting and I
adjusted it. With the mpeg canvas I could make a video. A small list
of things that work: move / fade in / out menu listings, resize and
fade in background boxes for text info areas, move listing items with
fixed menu bar and animated listing.

This has been asked before, not so long ago...I'm using a wireless gamepad (Logitech Cordless Rumblepad II), which works great with Freevo.I'm using it on a mainboard without USB 2.0, so USB 1.1 is not a problem.

No, it won't look like this.  Hopefully it will look better.  This was
done by me as a demo/test of the new animation engine, and I just
completely knocked off Windows Media Center because I have no artistic
creativity whatsoever (though I'm pretty good at copying, if I do say so
myself).

Once the new canvas stuff is complete and stable(ish), we'll start talks
about a new theme for 2.0.

[Freevo-users] Trying out Freevo 2.0 - Problems

[Tom Van den Bon]

Hi Everybody,

I decided to give Freevo 2.0 a shot and see whats happening. I followed 
the instructions from the wiki and have freevo and kaa compiled and 
installed. But when I try to run it 'freevo' under X, i get the 
following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/freevo", line 172, in ?
  import beacon
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/freevo/ui/beacon.py", line 36, in ?
  kaa.beacon.connect()
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/kaa/beacon/__init__.py", line 
75, in connect
  thumbnail.connect()
File 
"/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/kaa/beacon/thumbnail/thumbnail.py", 
line 229, in connect
  raise RuntimeError('unable to connect to thumbnail server')
RuntimeError: unable to connect to thumbnail server

Am I starting it correctly ? What about configuration ?

Thanks,
Tom

P.S - Sorry for the double post but I'm not sure wheter I should post to the 
users list or to the devel list on Freevo 2.0 ?

[Freevo-users] Can anyone recommend a good remote control?

[mat holton]

Hi there,

Well, the title says it all really - Is there such a thing as a decent 
remote control that works with linux/freevo. Are they USB? Do they 
require USB2 or will they work with USB1.1?

Any ideas would be great!

cheers,

mat

There is no way to add proper multi-tuner support in Freevo 1.x without
rewriting or adding a bunch of code.  Ideally Freevo would know that
some or all channels are available on both tuners and do the appropriate
balancing.

If done that way then one tuner is specificly for recording and one for
watching live TV.  That is a bit hackish and not pure multi tuner
support.  What if you want to record two things at once?  BTW right now
there's no check for recordable=True/False.

About using a different lock file for each device, yes, that would
probably be the easiest way.  Also for simplicities sake Freevo could
assume that both tuners have identical channels (you may need to add
another config entry to specify the tuners).

The live tv and recording plugins would have to check the first device's
lock file, use that if it's free, or move on to the next.  If both are
busy, tough luck.

I wrote most of the recording code in 1.5 so feel free to keep asking
questions.

[Freevo-users] Multi-tuner support in freevo

[Duncan Webb]

Hi all,

Trotted off today to get one of those Hauppauge PVR-500 with two tuners.
What I would like to do is make the appropriate modifications to freevo
so that people can watch TV and record at the same time.

I hope that this can be in the next freevo release, planned for the end
of this month. So I need to know what changes need to be made to the
freevo source to allow multi-tuner support.

I know that VIDEO_GROUPS needs changing and the record server should use
a different lock file for the recording device.

Is there something else that needs to be changed?

Does the video group need a recordable=false for one of the tuners.

TIA
Duncan

 I start freevo with the -fs switch from a runlevel script.
 It makes freevo start an instance of X that go away when you quit freevo.
 Do you need gdm?
 I can post my script if you need it (right now I have no access to my 
 Freevo
 box) but you can hack one with the example that should be in
 /etc/init.d/skeleton

It took me a long time to convince my missus that we don't need XP,

Yeah, I do need GDM, so my missus can log in to check her mail and surf 
the web. At the moment, it's a pretty cool setup - after 30 seconds of 
inactivity in GDM it will auto login to X which then starts up freevo -

Coming back to this, this worked for 'machine A' but this hack does not work 
for 'machine B' ostensibly running the same freevo version, but a gentoo 
ebuild rather than debian.

Can anyone point me to somewhere I can remove this functionality? I don't want 
my tvtime/stationlist.xml overwritten because it sets the stations to 0,1,2,3 
instead of 9,11, 28,31 and this simply results in "no signal".
And even setting the owner of the ./tvtime directory to root and removing 
write access won't stop the writing of a new stationlist.xml file.

"May be it's as simple as putting the correct instruction into the
SHUTDOWN_SYS_CMD in local_conf.py. It can be anything like logout of
another script."

That looks like what I need to know :-) So I can run any command there then? or 
simply call logout. Great!

Thanks for that.

 Hi there,

 Is there a way I can get freevo to log out when the user quits.

 I have setup a user called freevo that automatically logs in after 30 
 seconds (in GDM), the only thing missing is logging out when quitting/

 any ideas?

May be it's as simple as putting the correct instruction into the
SHUTDOWN_SYS_CMD in local_conf.py. It can be anything like logout of
another script.

[Karl Lattimer]

gnome-session-save --kill

Is the command to logout of a session.

Maybe I wasn't clear enough - I want freevo to log the user out of 
Xwindows when he quits freevo.

Hi Mat,

It's a bit busy around here at the mo so don't take the lack of response 
personally but you're right with your guess. There's already support for 
shutting down the PC so you could just hack that to make whatever call 
you need to log out instead. All patches are welcome.

[mat holton]

I take it from the lack of responses to this message that this 
functionality isn't built in so I would have to hack the code myself to 
get it working?

Maybe I wasn't clear enough - I want freevo to log the user out of 
Xwindows when he quits freevo.
