Last time looked LinuxMCE was based on MythTV. That particular setup in the video was using some really oddball but cool hardware using the x10 protocol stuff for home automation.

Actually, I use kdm to boot freevo (as a window manager). Yes, quite strange, but that was the first way that I managed to make it work. And then, the KISS principle... In my new attempt, I'll try to make things simpler, so I was wondering: do I need X at all? Can I run everything in framebuffer? I think I should, as that's how geexbox works, right? So mplayer/xine will work, but... what about mame/fmsx/others? Will they work? Remember my video hardware is a radeon 9100igp, and there's no way to have 3d+tvout. So, if I want to run freevo in framebuffer, what do I need? Alberto - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

As others have said, directfb is the way to go. Great video
quality. Possibility of true RGB TV output if you're willing to make
your own cable.
Note that getting things like zsnes and xmame working is somewhat
painful, requiring both source patches and fiddling with options to
get the required result.
Here's my config, if it's any use (G400 DH):
/etc/directfbtrc
matrox-crtc2 # switch output to second head
matrox-tv-standard=pal
matrox-sgram # Some G400s only.
mode=720x576 # PAL video mode
memcpy=MMXEXT # saves a bit of startup time for directfb
primary-layer=02
#matrox-cable-type=scart-composite # or scart-rgb, if you've built
# your own cable...
disable-module=ps2mouse# Disable various inputs: I use lirc
mouse-source=/dev/input/mice # & the direct fb joystick inputs
disable-module=linux_input # interfere with the SDL ones for zsnes
disable-module=joystick# joystick reading.
no-cursor
agp=2
dma
videoram-limit=16384 # I have a 16Mb G400.
no-vt-switch
pixelformat=RGB32
graphics-vt
/etc/freevo/boot_config
FREEVO_HOME="/usr/local/freevo"
FREEVO_LOG="/var/log/freevo/main.log"
FREEVO="yes"
WEBSERVER="no"
RECORDSERVER="yes"
HAVEMOUSE="no"
HAVEKEYBOARD="no"
SDL_VIDEODRIVER="directfb"
ROOTUSERINFO="no"
SETNUMLOCK="no"
/etc/freevo/freevo.conf
cdparanoia = /usr/bin/cdparanoia
display = dfbmga
flac = /usr/bin/flac
geometry = 768x576
lame = /usr/bin/lame
lsdvd = /usr/bin/lsdvd
mencoder = /usr/bin/mencoder
mplayer = /usr/bin/mplayer
oggenc = /usr/bin/oggenc
renice = /usr/bin/renice
setterm = /usr/bin/setterm
tv = pal
tvtime = /usr/bin/tvtime
version = 2.1
You'll need to set a few variables in freevo.conf: I use mplayer to
play video:
MPLAYER_VO_DEV_OPTS = ':crtc2:fieldparity=top:tvnorm=auto'
And I start freevo at boot, so my /etc/init.d/freevo looks like this
(with symlinks to appropriate startup directories...):
#! /bin/sh
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
DAEMON=/usr/local/bin/freevo
NAME=freevo
DESC=freevo
test -x $DAEMON || exit 0
# Include freevo defaults if available
if [ -f /etc/freevo/boot_config ] ; then
. /etc/freevo/boot_config
fi
set -e
[ "${HAVEMOUSE}" = "no" ] && {
export SDL_NOMOUSE=true
}
case "$1" in
start)
echo -n "Starting $DESC: "
$DAEMON start
$DAEMON recordserver start
echo "$NAME."
;;
stop)
echo -n "Stopping $DESC: "
$DAEMON recordserver stop
$DAEMON stop
echo "$NAME."
;;
restart)
echo -n "Restarting $DESC: "
$DAEMON stop
sleep 1
$DAEMON start
echo "$NAME."
;;
*)
N=/etc/init.d/$NAME
echo "Usage: $N {start|stop|restart}" >&2
exit 1
;;
esac
exit 0
Have fun !
cheers, Phil

Re: [Freevo-users] Music album covers aren't shown anymore in 1.7.0
I think this is the default icon for this folder. In Mandriva (with KDE), when I open my personal folder, folders like 'Music' and 'Documents' have another color, with an icon in it, so I guess this is the folder icon with a speaker. See this for example: http://images.pcworld.com/reviews/graphics/123555-homeFolders_b.jpg (Just an image I found with google images, I didn't make this) 2007/3/27, Dirk Meyer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: "Duncan Webb" wrote: >> I removed the file from my system, but, this .directory file is >> autogenerated by the Mandriva installer. >> The .directory file from the music directory of another user on the system >> look like this: >> >> [Desktop Entry] >> Hidden=true >> Icon=music-mdk.png >> >> This suddenly explains why Freevo was searching for a 'sic-mdk.png' file >> (with the two first characters chopped of, like mentioned in the Picture >> folders threat from Christian Lyra). > > Looks like a bug in kaa.metadata. > > AFAIK kaa.metadata does not support the hidden and icon attribute.

But kaa.metadata does not honor Hidden yet. http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ar01s05.html What is music-mdk.png? Is it dome sort of default? IMHO kaa.metadata should honor icon settings in a .directory. The bug with the missing first two characters is gone in current svn but kaa.metadata will still use music-mdk.png.
