Works quite well for me too. :)
though it has
several bugs: I cannot manage to use imdb plugin
I have noticed this, when it doesn't work:
[('0073486', uOne Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, u'1975', ''),
('0121735', u'Sha da jie fan zhuan feng ren yuan', u'1993', ''),
('0109422', u'Ranma #189;: Ch#244;-musabetsu kessen! Ranma team VS
densetsu no h#244;#244;', u'1994', ''), ('0030223', u'Healthy, Wealthy
and Dumb', u'1938', '')]
It may be because of the #244; like codes, which need converting to
utf-8. Needs to be looked into.
, nor the webserver, and
I know this is a pain, I plan to reverse the webserver changes until it
works for non-ascii file names and put the new modules as a patch into
the contrib/patches directory.
I have some issues with encodings. On the other hand, the encoding
server is a very helpful tool (I have a DVB-T USB card and the
recordings are about 1,7GB per hour), and it works without problem for
me (though I haven't tested it yet with a DVD).
DVD's don't work in 1.7.0rc1, but has been fixed in svn.
I think in SVN several bugs have been corrected.
There may still be some problems with images, as the Python Imaging
Library (PIL) has been replaced by kaa.imlib2. ATM Haven't found any.
Does it work with python
2.4?
Yes, The svn version works with python 2.3 and higher, 1.7.0-rc1
requires python 2.4 but the change that caused this has been now removed.
As stated in the release post, Freevo-1.7.0-rc1 does require Python-2.4.x.
The rel-1 svn version should be better than 1.7.0rc1. But I do need
feedback about what is not working.

[Freevo-users] About m3u playlists and mplayer
I'm trying to play m3u playlists directly with mplayer, as if they
were an audio file like a mp3 or ogg file (I mean without browsing
them).
To achieve this I have in local_conf.py:
PLAYLIST_SUFFIX = [ ]
AUDIO_SUFFIX = [ 'm3u', 'mp3', 'ogg', 'wav', 'm4a', 'wma', 'aac',
'flac', 'mka' ]
But I've found that there is a line in src/audio/plugins/mplayer.py
that prevents mplayer from playing m3u playlist if they are a local
file:
L.128:
if item.network_play and ( str(filename).endswith(m3u') or
str(filename).endswith('pls')):
I've changed it to
if ( str(filename).endswith(m3u') or str(filename).endswith('pls')):
And now I can play m3u files without problems (freevo appends
'-playlist' to mplayer command line when it detects a m3u file).
I've been using this setting for several days now, and apparently
there are no collateral effects. In fact, if you leave PLAYLIST-SUFFIX
= [ 'm3u' ], freevo goes on with the standard behaviour and again you
can browse m3u playlists.
So my question is, why does this line filter only net playlists? Am I
breaking something changing the code?

I was wondering the same thing too, when I was seeing if is possible to
have a video play list, this allows a series of videos to be played with
out loading mplayer each time.
video
file id=f1 mplayer-options=-vf crop=704:480:8:40today.pls
playlist/
/file
/video
The answer is I don't know, but there must have been a reason. :)

I just noticed that the files that return that error or files that do not return multiple pages from IMDB, but instead go directly to an exact match. Also sorry for 'spamming' with so many separate messages. - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Re: [Freevo-users] IMDB lookup crashes
The current SVN version solved the issue. While we're on the subject of IMDB lookups, after completing and update the listing does not auto update to show the changes like it use to. Instead you have to back one menu and then re-enter to see the results of the IMDB lookup. I am assuming this is just a matter of calling a menuw refresh. harri wrote: On Monday 18 December 2006 18:16, Duncan Webb wrote: The real problem is Python and it's unicode handling, it's not very good but the fix is simple. :) Change line 352 in /usr/lib/python2.4/site.py from: encoding = ascii # Default value set by _PyUnicode_Init() to: encoding = iso-8859-1 # Default value set by _PyUnicode_Init() Actually I think Python's unicode handling is fairly good, but it is not automatic.

I just don't know enough about HTTP and how to encode file names so that
they don't get converted.
What I find a problem with python's unicode handling is when a decode
fails it reports an UnicodeEncodingError and visa versa.
decode/encode are not really intuitive as you have to know from which
perspective the decode/encode works. What I mean is string.decode()
returns a unicodestr and unicodestr.encode() return a string, you have
to know that it is from the string.
unicode('ü') crashes with the default ascii encoding.

I noticed that the same file name from a fat (usb drive) and an ext3

os.path.supports_unicode_filenames.
Some ideas if anyone has time to try.
