If so then maybe the owner is root and your running from a user with the
incorrect permissions. The database is in cachedir/freevo.sqlite,
where cachedir is /tmp/freevo or /var/cache/freevo
Thanks Duncan
The owner was another user on the same box. I just ended up
deleting /var/cach/freevo and letting freevo rebuild it.
I've run into a couple of problems with freevo that in retrospect were
possibly similar issues around running freevo under multiple accounts.
For now I'll avoid it.
To me that's a bug - I made an entry on the sourceforge site under
bugs http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=446895group_id=46652
referring to freevo cache but I'm not sure that's the only spot problems
may occur. Wasn't there discussion earlier about a problem that didn't
show up when freevo was run as root?

[Freevo-users] Start freevo twice with two xorg layouts
Hey everyone, first, huge thanks to all developers for the nice software! I use freevo on a selfmade HTPC with a touchscreen monitor (mouse support, please ;-)) and a projector. In the past, xorg was configured for twinview on a NV quadro, so the monitor shows freevo and if I would use the projector I changed $DISPLAY for xine or mplayer. Now I bought a Matrox Quadro (four Devices) to run freevo on both screens: - two users, tft and bea - xorg with two layouts - lirc setup only for tft - bea uses keyboard If I start freevo for tft with freevo -fs -layout tft -sharevts -novtswitch, everything is fine. But if bea comes with freevo -fs -layout bea -sharevts -novtswitch, freevo comes up on the projector, but I cannot navigate anymore. For example, if tft plays music, the exit button stops playing, but freevo does not come back to the menu. Any suggestions? - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

[Freevo-users] Mouse support in Freevo?
Having seen this mentioned in other threads I thought I would ask the question, is this something that would be easy (relatively) to do / provide? My bluetooth usb dongle arrives this week, and I have a Wii remote that I will be trying to hook up to my linux machine. Ideally I would love a point and click interface, with the buttons only used while playing media, although a pop-up menu system for point and click over the top of media would also be ace (Freevo 2.0 for that one I guess, as it would need overlay support). But for now, is there any way of adding mouse support for the main menu? any pointers (haha, pun not intentional) on the right areas of the code to look at, and appropriate python functions? Cheers :) PS, I will report back with instructions if I have any luck getting the wii remote to work! - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Re: [Freevo-users] xmradio plugin
I figured out it was an issue with my account/password that produced the error
in the log file. I had to play around some with combinations of activating the
player and the XM_CMD variable to get it finally working.
I do not have the xmonline.cookies file. Could that be why after listening to 1
station and going to another I get the You need to log back in.. message? If
so, can I touch that file and it get used, or do I not have something enabled
properly?
This is great and thanks so much for the help. The next question is.Has
there been any effort to grab the song/artist metadata to show on the screen?
Thanks again,
Joe

Re: [Freevo-users] Wiimote: was Mouse support in Freevo?
Stephen, I used the cwiid drivers (0.6rc2) and they worked for me. You can start them from something like rc.local and background it. The svn version supports daemonizing, but I can't get it to compile right now. It has python bindings, and is under active development. I've been thinking of writing a Wiivo plugin, a main menu item that would allow you to choose different Wiimote configurations bases on the types of games you want to play, or otherwise want to use the remote. However, a teething toddler and 4 months of sleep deprivation have slowed it down some. I'm new to python, so I don't have much at this point. I would be willing to help out where I can, if that's of interest to you... Hope that helps! /Mike -Original Message- From: Stephen Rowles PS, I will report back with instructions if I have any luck getting the wii remote to work! - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
