I thought I'd tested it!
Maybe I forgot to clear out .pyc files or something (although surely
the python interpreter should pick up on that...)
You're right though, the code as written isn't picking up the channel
number. Note that nextchan *is* calculated within the function in
question though: it should just be a matter of putting it in the
string passed to mplayer. I'll prod it when I get a chance tomorrow /
over the weekend.
cheers, Phil

Hello Philip,
how is your patch supposed to work? You have to send mplayer the enext
channel number in his channels.conf file.
this
self.app.write('dvb_set_channel nextchan 0\n')
sends that string to mplayer. it should be something like
self.app.write('dvb_set_channel 124 0\n')
but i see 2 problems here:
- not everybody has only 1 dvb tuner
- how do you get che channel number?

I only have the 1080i Apple trailer for testing and they are H.264. And no, I'm not using xvmc. Since mpeg2 is very simple, I can do that in software. And even for 1080i it should work in software because ffmepg can use threads internal for mpv.

It often takes ages to come into sync when starting playback. Sometimes twiddling with autosync values helps, but it's pot luck as far as I can tell. >BTW: is channel changing supposed to take several seconds? mplayer seems to like to search the mpeg stream for the program and audio chunks, even if you've told it the pid values beforehand, which means it has to cache a chunk of the stream and scan through it first. There's also some retune time in the receiver circuitry of course: it has to sync to the new signal. For DVB, changing channels within a single MUX *ought* to be instantaneous, since no retuning is necessary.

Re: [Freevo-users] mplayer change channel + UNICHROME
I have applied the patch in my setup too and also patched tv/plugins.mplayer.py for unichrom hwaccel insert: args = (config.MPLAYER_NICE, config.MPLAYER_CMD,\ config.MPLAYER_VO_DEV_HWACCEL,\ " "+config.MPLAYER_VO_DEV_OPTS_HWACCEL,\ config.MPLAYER_AO_DEV, config.MPLAYER_ARGS_DEF) in the clause under group ivtv (line 109). I have made no patch yet for this because I have two questions: 1) is it only IVTV that generates MPEG or are there other capture cards that need this too? 2) I notice that after a channel change mplayer is struggling with displaying the video, pressing pause and unpausing after a little sorts that out. Is this something that is related to my setup IVTV+UNICHROME out or do others have this problem too? BTW: is channel changing supposed to take several seconds?

[Freevo-users] 1.6.1 weather plugin issue
All, I have been investigating why my weather plugin often fails these days. error looks like this: File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/freevo/plugins/weather.py", line 327, in getForecast self.convertWeatherData() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/freevo/plugins/weather.py", line 514, in convertWeatherData self.setWeatherIcon( ) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/freevo/plugins/weather.py", line 522, in setWeatherIcon match = weatherTypes.findType( name=self.shortdesc ) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/freevo/plugins/weather.py", line 618, in findType raise Exception, "unknown type requested in WeatherTypesClass::findType() %s:%s:%s"%(number,name,icon) Exception: unknown type requested in WeatherTypesClass::findType() None::None I have added the printout of the parameters to findType, and gee it turns out it can not find a type of you give it no input. So I looked at the data file for my location, it is attached. The problem is that self.shortdesc is empty which is because both the CIcon and Context fields are empty in the data it receives. Does anyone understand the weather plugin sufficiently to know how to fix this?
