[Freevo-users] kaa changes, please read (was: kaa version information)

Oops, my fault.

To everyone playing with the current svn of kaa.base and
kaa.metadata. I removed kaa.xml which was a bad wrapper for
libxml2. This file was named xml.py in the base dir and conflicts with
the global python xml import. If you use kaa.base svn, remove the
build dir (use python setup.py clean in the kaa root dir to be sure)
and delete the installation of kaa in site-packages. If you get the
error from above, xml.py[co] is still installed and conflicts with the
global xml installation.

The same is true for kaa.metadata. In misc was a file called xml.py
which conflicts with the global python install. It is renamed now.

Re: [Freevo-users] Music album covers aren't shown anymore in 1.7.0

2007-03-24 Thread Michel Hoogervorst

Duncan,

Can I provide you with some information of any kind?
I would realy like this to work again...

Do you want me to raise a bug report maybe?

 I just have album covers named front.jpg or front.png in every album
 directory.
 This has always worked well, and stopped working in 1.7.0

 I do not have files named after the songs, only the front.* files.

 Note that this still works in playlists.

I will need to look into this in a bit more detail. The front.type
file is being stored correctly in the cache of the directory but I've
not yet found out why it is not being displayed. Not forgotten.

 Hello Duncan:

 Well.. have a look at:

I use this:

and
ROM_DRIVES = [ ('/mnt/dvd', '/dev/dvd', 'DVD') ]

DVD playback is not working, for me, at the moment, libdvdread is
complaining about not being able to read non copy protected DVDs and is
showing me the folders of copy protected DVDs. May be a change to
something else is causing this.

Having said that, I've committed some changes into svn that may fix your
problem.

 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# grep hdb /home/freevo/.freevo/local_conf.py
 ROM_DRIVES = [ ('/media/cdrom0', '/dev/hdb', 'DVD') ]
 
 It is allright, since I can, by example, watch DVD movies without 
 problems... just enter dvd and play even without pressing 
 buttons but next, I eject DVD, introduce single Data CD with few 
 videos, and crashed... at the end, I can see /media/cdrom0 was 
 not mounted at all just mount it, exit directory, enter directory, and 
 media was there

FreevoLive 0.07 has a 2.6.17 kernel
and looks like it would be a good place to start for you
