How is the PS3 at decoding a really awful combination of codecs? Let's say, H.264 video with AAC audio. Does it have enough CPU power to push that at 1080p? (Although I ask this knowing that most available HD videos out there are 720, not 1080.)

Re: [Freevo-users] freevo and logitech harmony
I have an imon too, maybe trying the delay setting said by Ryan Roth may help. I'm looking forward to seeing the configuration tool. I was also thinking, I think I've seen somewhere an infrared plugin (usb uirt maybe, I don't remember the name) which can control cable box. Basically the htpc generate infrared signals to control the cable box. I was wondering if I can use something like this to control the tv and the receiver ? This way my universal remote control is the freevo remote control. I don't know if it's hard to setup and easier to spend $70 on the harmony instead. jp Jason Tackaberry wrote: > On 2007-05-30 14:15, Duncan Webb wrote: > >> I use a logitech harmony remote, it's quite good but the configuration >> software is a pain in the .

Re: [Freevo-users] 1.7.2svn childapp crash
I wrote a bash script which writes xmltv to a filename with a date of today (something like 20070315_TV.xml), then ln -s to /tmp/TV.xml. Then, everytime it runs it first checks the date of the xmltv filename, then it check for internet connectivity, then ir runs an update. Anyone is welcome to the script if they are interested. Will save time someone writing it agian, but it's not integrated into freevo at all. It does call freevo cache after an update though.. I run it via cron. I have noticed recently this one thing: freevo schedulefavourites "used to" update xmltv and then schedule new recordings. I don't use the recordserver in freevo ATM. schedulefavourites won't run when when recordserver isn't running. Which means, to update xmltv you need to run freevo cache. This seems a big overkill for something that happens so regularly??

[Freevo-users] Freevo error « Event 'Play' c rashed » using tvtime
Hello again,
After some more tries I have detected that this problem happens all
the time, I think it is a bug.
This is the behaviour:
1. Starting with user settings clean (rm -Rf ~/.tvtime/)
2. Start freevo and exec the tv
3. tvtime starts and runs ok, I can see the xmltv info in OSD
4. Shutdown freevo
5. Start freevo again, this time freevo crashes when tries to exec
tvtime with the following error: « Event 'Play' crashed »
6. Analysing the log I see the following error stack:
tvguide.py (149): TVGUIDE EVENT is PLAY
tvmenu.py (85): None
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/freevo/main.py", line 290,
in eventhandler
app.eventhandler(event)
File "/usr/share/python-support/python-freevo/freevo/menu.py", line
493, in eventhandler
if not isinstance(menu, Menu) and menu.eventhandler(event):
File "/usr/share/python-support/python-freevo/freevo/tv/tvguide.py",
line 244, in eventhandler
self.player('tv', self.selected.channel_id)
File "/usr/share/python-support/python-freevo/freevo/tv/tvmenu.py",
line 86, in start_tv
plugin.getbyname(plugin.TV).Play(mode, tuner_id)
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'Play'
Can someone help me tracking this error down?
I'd really prefer to use tvtime to benefit from the integrated OSD
info on channels.
Thank you again,
Raul

It looks like Tanja is correct, the "context" of the events is being changed and my guess is that freevo schedulefavorites has caused the record server to changed the context.

Re: [Freevo-users] freevo and logitech harmony
Mine works great with freevo. I told it to act as a Tivo remote, had lirc learn it, and set all the delays down to lower integers. Jason I'm not sure where you are changing your delays at, but I set the 'Inter-Key Delay' to 100, and the 'Inter-Device Delay' to 0. I did notice depending on which remote I had it 'acting' as the delays we higher and lower, so play with it.

Oh come on, I always get amused when you tried to predict a prerelease date. :) Here's the basic problem with 2.0: it's just me and dischi working on it, and it's not our day job. Another aggravating factor (with respect to a release date) is that we have lofty goals, and technology is outpacing our ability to code (e.g. HDTV emergence, improving opengl support, etc). We are however making progress primarily in way of making concessions. We have to ignore certain hardware configurations because they complicate the code beyond available manpower. So those of you hoping to use directfb with the 2.0 release will be disappointed.
