[Freevo-users] freevo without X
Hello, Currently I'am building a new server and was wondering if it's possible to set up freevo without installing X at all. I know freevo can be run in framebuffer but I was wondering wich problems I run into without X being on my system, has anyone tryed this before and has some info for me? -- Groetjes Japie - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

That is a huge mpeg2 file must have been a long broadcast. There is
not a plugin to make a dvd, but you can use the encoding server to
reencode the movie to something smaller. You will need to add
plugin.activate('video.reencode') to the re-encode section of your
local_config.py and start the server with freevo encodingserver start.
At this point you will have a menu option to transcode the videos when
you press your E ( when using a keyboard) on a file. Beyond that off
hand I think yo will have to go somewhere else to make the dvd.

This probably why most sites recommend the cable, less trouble. However you might try the the " RADIO_DEVICE =" setting if you have not already or making a wrapper script for the RADIO_CMD that calls the sox rerouting before calling the the radio channel. After looking at the command you using, I am not so your that you are using DMA routing so much as using a software version of the patch cable. Take a look at the bttv tvcard btaudio driver help in the wiki for an example of a DMA routing setup. That get you started on the right path.

[Freevo-users] radio over DMA
hei all I just installed a PCTV 310i card and tried to use the radio (tv not yet). on the net some tipps says to install a spezial cable.. this do not work for me... on the other hand is there a alsa driver to route the signal over DMA to /dev/dsp1 and this works well. I use now rerouting with sox: $ sox -q -c2 -sw -tossdsp -r32000 /dev/dsp1 -tossdsp /dev/dsp My question now: is this the normal way to do it? or should it work without this? even if I set AUDIO_DEVICE = '/dev/dsp' AUDIO_INPUT_DEVICE = '/dev/dsp1' I have no radio sound without the sox trick (other sound like mp3 and CD is working well!) for me it is no problem at the moment, i wrote a bash script for starting and stopping the radio, but its just strange for me that I have to do that. thanks for tipps Andreas - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

That's correct it can't but MPlayer uses the first -vo setting and IIRC
the MPLAYER_ARGS comes first so it should use these settings.

yet.

This is what I have, but haven't tried vpodcast on this machine as the
network connection is wireless and a bit flaky.

(('-autosync 100 -osd-duration 3000 -nolirc -autoq 100 -subpos 92 -fs '
