[Freevo-users] No video thumbnails....

2006-11-24 Thread Davin Desborough
I recently undated to MPlayer-1.0pre8  (compiled myself) and have since 
been unable to create thumbnails for tv shows and other video files. I 
am guessing that it might have something to do with the fact that png is 
no longer listed in my available output drivers (mplayer -vo help), but 
I'm not sure. All I see in the logs are errors like this:

error creating capture for /library/tv/11-24_00:00_abc.mpeg

no imagefile found


Any ideas out there? If it's something missing from mplayer, any 
suggestions on what it is I am missing?

Thanks,
Davin

You can just change dvd:// to dvdnav:// in video/plugins/mplayer.py
But if you do that, you always use dvdnav

Changing the dvd:// to dvdnav:// does not actually change the what
the command line option used in mplayer. the is 2 dvd:// in that file
and chnaging 1 or the other or both results with mplayer being called
with dvd://? ,  not dvdnav://?.

I think that you are asking for trouble changing this, reading the
messages on the devel list one of the mplayer developers has said that
dvdnav is still not really working in mplayer. If it always works then
great.

However, if you really want to, then the dvd:// url is set in
src/video/__init__.py about line ~150. You will also need to change the
video/plugins/mplayer.py so that it recognises the dvd:// and dvdnav://
url. There may be other places that need changing too.

Have fun, one way to learn Python ;-)

[Freevo-users] Change Directory List Order

2006-11-24 Thread Ryan Roth
If there a way using a .FXD to change the order of file in a directory 
from alphabetical to a custom order?

I have a folder for a group of videos, and then sub-folders with names 
like 'first','second','third', and so on.  The names of course are 
listed in alphabetical order rather than numerical order.  Can I change 
this without renaming the folders?

Thanks

Ryan

[Freevo-users] update on parallel recording

2006-11-24 Thread Paul Sijben
I have been progressing my work on using multiple video devices to
record multiple programs at the same time.(eg with a PVR-500)

I have been making some improvements on conflict resolution and some
other details. I have been using it happily for quite a while now so I
am convinced the code is working well.

Note it (ab)uses the video groups to do its work, and I have not checked
any possible conflicts with TV viewing.

Is anyone interested in the patches?

Paul
