 It should but there is an overlay directory which can be relocated by
 configuring it in local_conf.py. The overlay directory has raw format
 images, including thumbnails of tv shows. Personally I split the two up
 the real cache is in /var/cache/freevo and the overlay is in
 /var/lib/freevo.

I've found the bug and am surprised that this worked before.

The attached album-art patch should fix the problem. The cover patch is
contains my debugging messages that were used to track down the problem.

You may not want to update you svn version at the moment, until Adam has
fixed the buttonbar code. The buttonbar plug-in is really quite a nice
feature for people with the coloured button on their remote controls.

Re: [Freevo-users] Freevo 1.7.2 TV guide problem with python 2.5

2007-06-12 Thread Pirlouwi

I already exchanged some mail with Duncan about a similar problem. It was
occuring when I wanted to reencode a .ts file in divx format. Sometimes, my
.ts file (produced by mplayer during a dvb-t record) did not had any length
attribute. I do not know why. Though, this problematic TS file was playing
ok.
Could you perform a mminfo command on this TS file and give it to us as
response to this thread? I wonder if this is also a length parameter issue.
PS: Duncan has removed the code for the length attribute in the svn version,
in the case of reencoding, because it was not used in this case, to avoid
such error.
Thx you.

Just worked out this is coming from kaa.metadata. It would appear that
some of my TS files recorded don't have some header data. So when
browsing recorded TV files I get the error for each of the bad files.

Nothing serious as they all work, and the new ones I've recorded since
1.7.2 are all fine.

[Freevo-users] freevo, hd and upscalling ? media center gallery and user info ?

2007-06-12 Thread kikoune
Hi the list

I'm using my freevo HTPC on a too small 27 4:3 tube tv screen.
I want bigger, and I'm thinking to go with widescreen 37 LCD.

I was wondering how works the upscalling in freevo, if I want to
stretch the video to 720p or 1080p ? (depending on the lcd I buy)

Do you guys have here advise about LCD screen working well with
freevo ? Do you have tips to share about your upscalling settings
with xine or mplayer ? How to get the best picture quality ?

Finally I was looking at the Media center gallery wiki page and
it will be very cool if more freevo user can post their setup and
maybe add a few comments on it (what hardware specs, what
settings ...). It would a great way to learn about the freevo
community ?

Have a good week end every one !

[Freevo-users] freevo and suspend/boot up speed

2007-06-12 Thread kikoune
hi

I'm trying to setup suspend to ram with freevo.
the suspend works on the htpc and now I need to
integrate with freevo.

I first set the freevo SHUTDOWN_SYS_CMD
to the suspend script. in that case the problem is
freevo shutting down itself also. so when I wake
up the computer the freevo is not running.

second try, I setup a command fxd to the suspend
script. it adds a suspend entry in my menu. it works
well except I have 2 menu entries shutdown and
suspend. I'd like to replace the shutdown menu with
the suspend one but keeping the shutdown confirmation.

do someone here already try that ?

I was thinking maybe to develop a new suspend plugin
with the same structure as the shutdown one and replacing
the shutdown procedure by a simple suspend one.

any ideas ?

thanks !

[Freevo-users] freevo + vdr + xine

2007-06-12 Thread Pirlouwi
Hello everybody,
has someone experience to share about the use of vdr application inside freevo?

First of all, I have to install vdr, and use it through xine as output
device, because I only have a budget dvb-t hardware. So I have to
patch xine for it to recognize vdr mrl (as it is explained here:
http://vdr.bluox.org/wiki/index.php/Xine-plugin#Installation). This is
done without problems, because at http://home.vr-web.de/~rnissl/ I can
get the cvs versions of xine-lib and xine-ui that match the given
patch.

My problem is for me to install xine-lib and xine-ui after compilation !
How can I do that, knowing that I already had xine installed before on
my Ubuntu feisty, via apt-get. A simple : sudo make install do not
work (evident, otherwise I wouldn't have wrote this email :-)
I suppose that I should only uninstall xine, but I don't know which
package to remove.
Whatever I do, I have no success, my self compiled xine always crash,
either due to plugins not found, or core dumps, ... ! It is a mess,
and i need some help to continue.

I feel that my problem is the previous footprint induced by the
former xine (installed by apt-get), but I don't know how to circumvent
that.

Thanks for your advices.

[Freevo-users] boot into freevo under (k)ubuntu edgy eft (6.10) and up - how to do it? (what's the best way?..)

2007-06-12 Thread Vlad Olenin

Hi,

I've been browsing through the instructions on Freevo automatic startup
during system startup (eg, in case of 'unattended' dedicated media center
box). The problem is I can't find instructions for Ubuntu. The instructions
pointed out on Wiki configuration page are for standard 'unix' init system
(which has 'inittab' file), while Ubuntu 6.10 and up (Feisy 7.04) is using a
different 'Upstart' event based init system. Alas for me it's just a little
bit more than sheer words (I don't know much about Linux internal workings,
even less so on subtle differences between different distos). From what I
understand while the Upstart would still respect inittab file if it's
found, the recommended way to startup things is through event based model.
I'm even more cautious here, since on Freevo wiki it's said that modifying
'inittab' file is 'dangerous' and might render entire system unusable.

So, I wonder if anyone can recommend a setup to start up freevo under Ubuntu
6.10 and up? Below is the description of the kind of system I want to build:

1) dedicated LIRC controlled Freevo powered media center with TV plugged in
as the only screen
2) automatic startup of Freevo during system boot
3) possibility to manage the box with VNC
4) no KDM, GDM or other 'heavy duty' window manager installed (which means
KDE or GDM window management XSession facilities can not be used to start up
Freevo)
5) some 'lightweight' window manager (xdm?...) to  provide basic
functionality for remote VNC server management

For now I run freevo under the dedicated X manager with the output done to
TV, everything being startup manually from tty1 after I log in to that
console:


exec /usr/X11R6/bin/xinit freevo -- /usr/X11R6/bin/X :1 -layout TV 


Does anyone have similar system configured? How did you set everything up?
(primarily - Freevo startup on system boot up)

Thanks!

Vlad

[Freevo-users] xine or xmms visulization?

2007-06-12 Thread bret clark
Is there way to use xine or xmms visualization when playing music? I did an 
archive search, but didn't really find anything of recent that would be 
useful. xine would probably be best since it is already used today to play 
video's so I'm thinking the current xine python script used to play music 
could be modified to show the visualization on a screen.

[Freevo-users] freevo, hd and upscalling ? media center gallery and user info ?

2007-06-12 Thread kikoune
Hi the list 

I'm using my freevo HTPC on a too small 27 4:3 tube tv screen.
I want bigger, and I'm thinking to go with widescreen 37 LCD.

I was wondering how works the upscalling in freevo, if I want to
stretch the video to 720p or 1080p ? (depending on the lcd I buy)
I already try to play some video sample on my freevo box (dothan
centrino @ 2.2, 512 mo ddr, ati 9600) and 720p video runs ok but
1080p is a slideshow  :(  Need more power or need to find a way
to enable some acceleration. (the sample where x264).

Do you guys have here advise about LCD screen working well with
freevo ? Do you have tips to share about your upscalling settings
with xine or mplayer ? How to get the best picture quality ?

Finally I was looking at the Media center gallery wiki page and
it will be very cool if more freevo user can post their setup and
maybe add a few comments on it (what hardware specs, what
settings ...). It would a great way to learn about the freevo
community ?

ps: I repost this message I did'nt seems to go through the first
time.

[Freevo-users] LOCALE configuration

2007-06-12 Thread Pirlouwi

I have trouble finding another value for my LANG env variable.
LANG=fr_BE.UTF-8

What is the value I should use if I want to choose iso8859-1 or iso8859-15

I tried LANG=fr_BE.iso8859-1, but freevo fails.
I tried LANG=fr_BE, it fails too.

[Freevo-users] xine and ivtv problem

2007-06-12 Thread Nicolas Souchu
Hi all,

I'm trying to use my ivtv pvr-150 with xine. Unfortunatly, the tv_ivtv plugin
doesn't work. Note that I use /dev/video1. What I get is a black screen and
xine is not responding anymore to the keyboard.

'cat /dev/video1|xine stdin://' works great.
'mplayer /dev/video1' works great.

What are the preriquisites for using the pvr:// syntax ? Actually, I'm trying
it as a standalone command because tv_ivtv plugin does the job with this
syntax. Could it be that my TV_IVTV_OPTIONS are incorrect ? How are these
parameters interpreted, ivtvctl is used ?

Thanks in advance.
Nicholas

Hi Michel,
   I am not using the cable for the Hauppauge card I am using the
antenna to get the channels. So, I want to scan for the channels first and
list down all the frequencies and then I have to edit the freq.py file. If
you any thing about this please help me. 
   After editing freq.py file for my country(India) just tell me what
are all the things to be done. Should I go directly to TV guide and it shows
the channels list so that if I enter on a  particular channel can I able to
watch the tv.

You are now replying to me, instead of to the list ;-)
Problem is, I don't know how to answer your question, because I have
never used scantv (I just copied all freq's over from the website of
my cable provider).

Please reply to the list.  There will certainly be someone to answer
your question ;-)

 You have to put the frequency list in freq.py, and have to add the
 channels in local_conf.py like discribed in the wiki.

  In the freq.py file of Freevo 1.7 I see this:
 
  CHANLIST = {
   us-bcast : dict(NTSC_BCAST),
   us-cable : dict(NTSC_CABLE),
   us-cable-hrc : dict(NTSC_HRC),
   japan-bcast  : dict(NTSC_BCAST_JP),

   southafrica  : dict(PAL_BCAST_ZA),
   argentina: dict(ARGENTINA),
   russia   : dict(RUSSIA),
   switzerland  : dict(PAL_SWITZERLAND),
  }
 
  As you can see, India is not in this list, so you will have to add the
  frequencies for all channels in India yourself in this file.  As far
  as I know, there is no easier way to do this...
 
  Then again, editing the freq.py file is not that hard, you just have
  to know at which frequencies your channels are.

Re: [Freevo-users] Regarding chanlist in freevo.conf

2007-06-12 Thread Michel Hoogervorst
Yugandhar,

What you entered in freq.py should look something like this:
CHANLIST = {
nl-multikabel: dict(PAL_MULTIKABEL),
us-bcast : dict(NTSC_BCAST),
 .
}

Where the nl-multikabel line matches the PAL_MULTIKABEL below:

PAL_MULTIKABEL = [
   (10, 208000 ), # Nederland 1
   (11, 216000 ), # Nederland 2
   (12, 224000 ), # Nederland 3
]

Where this is (channel, frequency).
In your local_conf.py, you should match that like this:

TV_CHANNELS = [
   ('1.tvgids.nl',  'Nederland 1', '10'),
   ('2.tvgids.nl',  'Nederland 2', '11'),
   ('3.tvgids.nl',  'Nederland 3', '12'),
]

Where this is ('xmltv_id', 'Display name', 'channel')

The xmltv_id should match your TV.xml (made by xmltv).  This is not
nessacary for TV to work, but is needed for the tv-guide only.

Hope this is clear?

Re: [Freevo-users] Album Art

Wonder if sourceforge's mailing lists were broken? Third try.

Michel Hoogervorst wrote:
 I tried removing /var/cache/freevo/* and indeed there were the album

 After returning to a previous played album, the covers are not shown
anymore.

 Before I upgraded kaa, I had completely removed the directory
 /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/kaa.  Is there another directory which
should be removed?

 Michel

 It should but there is an overlay directory which can be relocated by
configuring it in local_conf.py. The overlay directory has raw
format images, including thumbnails of tv shows. Personally I split
the two up the real cache is in /var/cache/freevo and the overlay is
in
 /var/lib/freevo.

I've found the bug and am surprised that this worked before.

The attached album-art patch should fix the problem. The cover patch is
contains my debugging messages that were used to track down the problem.

You may not want to update you svn version at the moment, until Adam has
fixed the buttonbar code. The buttonbar plug-in is really quite a nice
feature for people with the coloured button on their remote controls.

 The xmltv_id should match your TV.xml (made by xmltv).  This is not
 nessacary for TV to work, but is needed for the tv-guide only.

 Hope this is clear?

  Hi Michel,
 I am not using the cable for the Hauppauge card I am using the
  antenna to get the channels. So, I want to scan for the channels first
and
  list down all the frequencies and then I have to edit the freq.py file.
If
  you any thing about this please help me.
 After editing freq.py file for my country(India) just tell me
what

 shows
  the channels list so that if I enter on a  particular channel can I able
 to
  watch the tv.

You can however still use Freevo with TV without the TV.xml, it should
already work, but you just don't see any programs in the program

 If you have installed xmltv you can issue a tv_grab_xx  /tmp/TV.xml

Re: [Freevo-users] boot into freevo under (k)ubuntu edgy eft (6.10) and up - how to do it? (what's the best way?..)

2007-06-12 Thread kikoune
1) easy to do, just plug your pc on the tv and it should work (I got a
ati 9600 se tv out plugged on the tv as only screen)

2) Regarding the startup options you should fin what you need on the wiki.
I'm runiing feisty 7.04 and I choose gdm start with an autologin and an
Xsession starting X and freevo.
You should be able to the same without gdm.

345) You don't need to start a WM (actually, xdm is not a wm, it's a
login manager like gdm). You said you need
a WM for vnc. But you don't :)  You can enable vnc module of X11 and X
will act like a vnc server. It works
well, you don't need to setup a vnc server or to use a wm for that.
I follow this
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Use_VNC_to_connect_to_existing_X_Sessions#Method_2:__X_Server_.28system-started.29_method
on the ubuntu. Adding the Load vnc works out of the box, I don't
remember to install something else.

A last trick about the boot up process, I was tired to wait the pc to
boot up when I just want to listen some music, so I
setup the suspend acpi function and this way when I shutdown freevo, it
puts my computer in sleep. To startup from
sleep it take less than 10 seconds ;)

To answer the last question how did you set everything up ? : slowly
reading lot of documentation, the wiki, and search the web
to learn to configure each component :)

Regards

 Hi,

 I've been browsing through the instructions on Freevo automatic
 startup during system startup (eg, in case of 'unattended' dedicated
 media center box). The problem is I can't find instructions for
 Ubuntu. The instructions pointed out on Wiki configuration page are
 for standard 'unix' init system (which has 'inittab' file), while
 Ubuntu 6.10 and up (Feisy 7.04) is using a different 'Upstart' event
 based init system. Alas for me it's just a little bit more than sheer
 words (I don't know much about Linux internal workings, even less so
 on subtle differences between different distos). From what I
 understand while the Upstart would still respect inittab file if
 it's found, the recommended way to startup things is through event
 based model. I'm even more cautious here, since on Freevo wiki it's
 said that modifying 'inittab' file is 'dangerous' and might render
 entire system unusable.

 So, I wonder if anyone can recommend a setup to start up freevo under
 Ubuntu 6.10 and up? Below is the description of the kind of system I
 want to build:

 1) dedicated LIRC controlled Freevo powered media center with TV
 plugged in as the only screen
 2) automatic startup of Freevo during system boot
 3) possibility to manage the box with VNC
 4) no KDM, GDM or other 'heavy duty' window manager installed (which
 means KDE or GDM window management XSession facilities can not be used
 to start up Freevo)
 5) some 'lightweight' window manager (xdm?...) to  provide basic
 functionality for remote VNC server management

 For now I run freevo under the dedicated X manager with the output
 done to TV, everything being startup manually from tty1 after I log in
 to that console:

  exec /usr/X11R6/bin/xinit freevo -- /usr/X11R6/bin/X :1 -layout TV 

 Does anyone have similar system configured? How did you set everything
 up? (primarily - Freevo startup on system boot up)

 Thanks!

 Vlad

[Freevo-users] Problem with Freevo on Mandriva 2007.1

2007-06-12 Thread Tommy Doucet

I installed Freevo with urpmi packages on Mandriva 2007.1, after the
installation was completed, I run freevo setup and freevo cache in a
console. When I try to start freevo in a console, it changes resolution to
what supposed to, it freezes my mouse and the GUI is not appearing at all, I
must log off and log back in to get my mouse back working. In the logs I got
3 errors, 2 about directory location ... (DIR_TV_RECORD and another one) and
pylirc problems

I run freevo on this hardware:
ECS 741gx-m motherboard
XP 2800+
512mb DDR
FX 5200 TV-Out
ATI TV Wonder PRO pci + Remote Wonder USB
Maxtor 40gb hard drive

My TV provider is StarChoice

Subject: [Freevo-users] freevo + vdr + xine

Hello everybody,
has someone experience to share about the use of vdr application inside
freevo?

First of all, I have to install vdr, and use it through xine as output
device, because I only have a budget dvb-t hardware. So I have to
patch xine for it to recognize vdr mrl (as it is explained here:
http://vdr.bluox.org/wiki/index.php/Xine-plugin#Installation). This is
done without problems, because at http://home.vr-web.de/~rnissl/ I can
get the cvs versions of xine-lib and xine-ui that match the given
patch.

My problem is for me to install xine-lib and xine-ui after compilation !
How can I do that, knowing that I already had xine installed before on
my Ubuntu feisty, via apt-get. A simple : sudo make install do not
work (evident, otherwise I wouldn't have wrote this email :-)
I suppose that I should only uninstall xine, but I don't know which
package to remove.
Whatever I do, I have no success, my self compiled xine always crash,
either due to plugins not found, or core dumps, ... ! It is a mess,
and i need some help to continue.

I feel that my problem is the previous footprint induced by the
former xine (installed by apt-get), but I don't know how to circumvent
that.

Thanks for your advices.

 Finally, I found another display plugin for vdr: vdr-plugin-xineliboutput
 It relies only on a patched version of xine-ui, which seems to be more

 Next step for me: configuring vdr to work with my Freecom DVB-T stick,

 I heard there is a freevo plugin for that.
 Will try to update our wiki when all will be ok.

Hi Luois.

Im currently going through this exact same process for Fiesty.  But I
have some experience doing the same thing recently for ubuntu edgy.

Here are the applications you are concerned with:
- vdr with the xinelibout plugin (because you need less custom code.
I followed this guide to get this working.
  http://www.linuxtv.org/vdrwiki/index.php/DEBIAN_Compiling_VDR_Source_Packages
- xine as the display engine for vdr.  So, before moving on to freevo
get xine working as the display engine for vdr.
- freevo as the controlling engine for xine.  This is where the freevo
plugin vdrtv.py is used.  I don't think that plugin is in cvs.  I
have a local copy but there should also be one floating on this list
from me a few weeks back.  However, this plugin may or may not work
with xinelibout.  It was hacked to work with vdr-xine.  I am currently
going through the process of  updateing this plugin for freevo 1.7 to
work with xinelibout (started list night).  However, I got stuck with
pylirc.  It won't work for me on fiesty.

Now, please be aware of the following restrictions when using vdr on freevo:
a) Freevo has it's own recordserver
b) Freevo has it's own tvguide UI.
c) vdr has it's own recordserver
d) vdr has its own tv guide UI (less featured than freevo's).

Freevo's recordserver is not integrated with vdr.  And by the nature
of vdr (daemon) you can't release the dvb card for freevo to own
recording when you've chosen to use vdr.  Bascially, what this means
is, when you choose to use vdr with freevo, your also choosing not to
use freevo's tvguide UI and freevo recordserver.

There are other tools for vdr which mean as an end use your not
missing out on much.  I use the following
i) xmltv2vdr to enable freevo to pipe it's xml data into vdr's tv guide.

[Freevo-users] Bug in XMLTV Listings?

2007-06-12 Thread Jim Duda
I think there is a bug/memory leak in maybe XMLTV listings or Scheduled 
Records.  I'm having trouble pinning it down, as it's not consistent.

Sometimes, when I view the XMLTV TV Listings under Watch-TV/TV Guide, in 
conjunction with viewing Scheduled Recordings, a subsequent attempt to 
watch a recorded video results in a freevo crash.

If I use the top program, I see that Python has consumed 65% of my RAM 
(512M bytes).  I have to reboot freevo to get things working again.

I'm using the most recent released 1.7.2 version.

How can I help track down this crash?

Jim

Re: [Freevo-users] freevo + vdr + xine

2007-06-12 Thread mike lewis
Hi Luois (resend, hit send before I was finished...).

Im currently going through this exact same process for Fiesty.  But I
have some experience doing the same thing recently for ubuntu edgy.

Here are the applications you are concerned with:
- vdr with the xinelibout plugin (because you need less custom code.
I followed this guide to get this working.
  http://www.linuxtv.org/vdrwiki/index.php/DEBIAN_Compiling_VDR_Source_Packages
- xine as the display engine for vdr.  So, before moving on to freevo
get xine working as the display engine for vdr.
- freevo as the controlling engine for xine.  This is where the freevo
plugin vdrtv.py is used.  I don't think that plugin is in cvs.  I
have a local copy but there should also be one floating on this list
from me a few weeks back.  However, this plugin may or may not work
with xinelibout.  It was hacked to work with vdr-xine.  I am currently
going through the process of  updateing this plugin for freevo 1.7 to
work with xinelibout (started list night).  However, I got stuck with
pylirc.  It won't work for me on fiesty.

Now, please be aware of the following restrictions when using vdr on freevo:
a) Freevo has it's own recordserver
b) Freevo has it's own tvguide UI.
c) vdr has it's own recordserver
d) vdr has its own tv guide UI (less featured than freevo's).

Freevo's recordserver is not integrated with vdr.  And by the nature
of vdr (daemon) you can't release the dvb card for freevo to own
recording when you've chosen to use vdr.  Bascially, what this means
is, when you choose to use vdr with freevo, your also choosing not to
use freevo's tvguide UI and freevo recordserver.

There are other tools for vdr which mean as an end use your not
missing out on much.  I use the following
i) xmltv2vdr to enable freevo to pipe it's xml data into vdr's tv guide.
ii) VDRAmdin-AM (the -AM reffers to a fork since vdradmin is no longer
being updated).  This is a http UI to vdr to allow what every user
need schedule favorites.  So you set a favorite base on chanel and
or program name, and with vdradmin the timer will be intilligent
enough to run each time the program is seen.

This results in a fully functional vdr service.

Re: [Freevo-users] xine or xmms visulization?

2007-06-12 Thread Christian Lyra
look for mplayervis. you will need pygoom also.

 Is there way to use xine or xmms visualization when playing music? I did an
 archive search, but didn't really find anything of recent that would be
 useful. xine would probably be best since it is already used today to play
 video's so I'm thinking the current xine python script used to play music
 could be modified to show the visualization on a screen.

 Thanks
