Re: [Freevo-users] working webradio.fxd?

2007-05-03 Thread bret clark
This is one of my main complaints with webradio. It seems a lot of stations 
change their url's on a fairly regular basis to the point where it feels 
like I'm constantly updating my webradio.fxd, .pls and .m3u files to use the 
new stations with freevo and my roku M500. Very aggravating! I know that 
there is a shoutcast plugin (haven't tried it yet), but it would be nice to 
create a universal webradio plug (not fxd file) which pulls radio stations 
from popular websites such as shoutcast, vtuner, live365, etc. that you 
could select and play.  Basically you would add the websites that it would 
pull from and present a list of stations of interest. Something similar to 
the rhapsody plugin that I've used.

My 2 cents.

Onderwerp: [Freevo-users] working webradio.fxd?

I tried using the webradio.fxd supplied with freevo, to add web radio
support to my installation. However, most of the stations don't appear to
work. They usually just appear for a second when I select them, and then 
I'm
returned to the menu. No errors in freevo 'main' log. I did get *one* to
work, but I forget which.

Has anyone had any experience with this? Is it a problem with the fxd
pointing to non-working stations, or is something in my setup preventing me
from playing them correcly? In the case of the former, does anyone have a
working fxd file with usable stations?

Thanks,
Simon

Re: [Freevo-users] black screen after playing video

 In local_conf I added the option --auto-play=fq

   (CONF.xine, CONF.width, CONF.height)
 
 XINE_ARGS_DEF = '--auto-play=fq --no-lirc -f --post=pp:quality=10,expand'

Actually it looks as if these options are the default:
-pq = --auto-play=q
-f = --auto-play=f

However df_xine does not have these options

 Nice, how did you implement it? and it sound reasonable as there is an
 option to quit after playback that is described in the man page.

 Subject: [Freevo-users] black screen after playing video

 Hi there,

 I just notice that after playing a video I got a black screen instead
 of returning to the freevo menu. Oddly enough if I forward for the
 near end of the file and wait, the video finish and freevo return to
 the menu. If I just play the video (and never hit the fast forward),
 when it finished I got the black screen. Pressing ESC at the black
 screen return to the freevo menu.

 Maybe it´s something with xine, as it is my default player. I will try
 with mplayer. Does anyone has noticed the same problem?

 
 You can try this patch and let me know if it works for both the x11
 version and the df_xine version

Re: [Freevo-users] vdr plugin

Hi Lucian,

 BTW guys I am still actively using VDR w/ Freevo 2, although I haven't 
 SVN updated that machine since Dischi changed some menu properties 
 (which broke the vdrmain plugin).  I am using xinelibout to remotely 
 access the VDR server and it works awesome.
 
 I'm *very* interested to know more about this, would you please elaborate?

Do you remember the VDR python libray and how we hooked it into the 
Freevo TV guide, leeching EPG data from VDR and sticking it into 
Freevo's EPG?  Well, then I was calling xine using the vdr-xine plugin 
to view the stream.

Someone on the list or IRC channel requested something a bit different a 
while back, when you hit TV in the main menu, go right into vdr-xine for 
live TV, forget about recording or EPG in Freevo.  I whipped up a 
plugin, vdrmain.py, and replaced the TV menu with it.  Worked fine.

VDR-xine was a bit sketchy, and somone make xinelibout for VDR. 
Xinelibout is great, adding another input method to xine, xvdr:// so you 
could watch TV from client - server.  All I had to do to start using 
this in vdrmain.py was to modify the args in my Freevo config. :)  Until 
Freevo 2 TV is stable I'm using this on both of my Freevo boxes in the 
house and it's great.

 Good luck with the new job!

Thanks, I'll send an update soon. :)

Yes, that was exactly how I used to use the old vdr plugin, until I 
noticed at some Freevo version that it always ended up with freevo 
(python) hogging the whole CPU when df_xine was running. Well, after a 
while, neither df_xine or fbxine had a VDR OSD anymore when used with 
vdr-xine, so I gave up.

 VDR-xine was a bit sketchy, and somone make xinelibout for VDR. 
 Xinelibout is great, adding another input method to xine, xvdr:// so you

Yes, and right now xineliboutput is also for me the only working video 
output method for VDR in my living room's htpc, where I only have 
DirectFB due to the Matrox G400 DH. And it's really working almost great 
(well, there is an issue with OSD scaling, but I can live with it for 
now. So I'm too very intersted in running both Freevo2 and VDR in a 
similar way, so when you get some time, please share ;-)

 Good luck with the new job!
 
 Thanks, I'll send an update soon. :)
 

That's good to hear!
