[Freevo-users] Frevo Yum repository
Is there an issue with the yum repository, or is it just not ready for Fedora 6? If so, I can always either go back to 5 or manually install.

Re: [Freevo-users] MPlayer Spawns Second Process with Freevo
I solved this issue. Sorry to bother everyone. I had to add 'mp4':'-nocache' to DEF_ARGS in local_conf.py. The second thread was apparently for caching; it was putting too much of a hit on my 1.8GHZ P4. Finding fabulous fares is fun. Let Yahoo!

You'll get a sandbox violation writing everywhere except the staging area.
The staging area is a temporary install image where portage installs the
application before committing it to the live filesystem.
So yes, you would get a violation for writing to /tmp
If you want to make changes to the live filesystem you can do so in the
ebuilds pgk_preinst and pkg_postint functions.
If you simply want to create an additional directory (like the LOGDIR) you can
do this in the src_install function. I imagine it would be something like
this:
# dev-python/freevo-core.ebuild
src_install() {
# call the distutils.eclass install function
# this uses setup.py to install the appliction
# we have to call this because we override the src_install function
distutils_src_install
# create the logdirectory with world writable permissions
# and tell portage to keep the directory even if it's empty
# this creates a directory in the staging area, not the live filesystem
diropts -m0777
keepdir /var/log/freevo
}
The ebuild 5 manpage [1] has more information about what goes where and what
tools you can use to achieve certain goals.
Automatically creating systemwide files/directories when importing a module is
a bad combination on a distro like gentoo. These things should be done when
installing rather then at runtime (as shown in the src_install function
above). A sanity check to see if certain files/directies exist at runtime
should be enough.
For userspecific settings/logging it's no problem as the portage user is
allowed to write to it's own $HOME (which is removed after the install is
successfull)
Some additional information about gentoo's sandbox can be found at [2].

I'm running Gentoo and am using the ebuilds from the freevo overlay which I modified to use svn-head. When installing media-tv/freevo-ui you'll receive a sandbox violation. The problem is that setup.py imports freevo.conf which sets up the DATADIR, LOGDIR and the logfile handler.

[Freevo-users] MPlayer Spawns Second Process with Freevo
I'm running Freevo 1.6.2 with MPlayer 1.0.0.34-rc1try2 on Fedora Core 6. I'm making my video files into H.264 with the x264 codec. Whenever I play these movies, MPlayer will eventually spawn a second process, which can be verified by running 'top', and slows the video down significantly. Playing these same movies in X Window with MPlayer launched from the command line, it does not have this effect and plays smoothly. It seems to be an effect of playing these movies thru Freevo. This does not happen with DivX AVI movies, only raw H.264 movies. With the H.264 trailers downloaded from Quicktime's site, these play fine, too; the difference I believe is they have a Quicktime wrapper, mine don't. Anyone have a clue as to why this happens?
