Re: [Freevo-users] tv_grab_de_tvtoday
Hi Thorsten, I also found that infosatepg. But that programm is only usable with dvb-s and I am using dvb-t. On dvb-t the technisat data is send in the arte videotext, unfortunately I do not know, how to get the data and I am not that good a developer that I would have hope to write something by myself. I even send a mail to technisat to ask if it is possible to get this data somehow with a linux PC. The answer was friendly, but nevertheless: no support for Linux. From the original mail from technisat: Leider können wir Ihnen bezüglich Ihrer Anfrage keinerlei Tipps geben, da Linux von uns nicht supportet wird. Die SFI Daten werden als Datenstream über einen speziellen Datentransponder gesendet. Somit gibt es leider auch keine xml Datei o.Ä. zum einpflegen. If you are using dvb-s, this data will possible be a good solution and if you find a way to use it with dvb-t, please let me know!

Hello:
i wanted to play a sound when i entering in any menu, and i did a patch
and now i include in this list for if somebody need it, i use
OSD_SOUNDS_ENABLED feature included in freevo.
example:
before we only could do it:
OSD_SOUNDS= {
'menu.navigate': None,
'menu.back_one': None,
'menu.select' : None
}
with my path:
OSD_SOUNDS = {
'menu.tv': '/home/owen/Musica/menu_tv.wav',

[Freevo-users] Escaping string problem?
I moved up to the SVN version for my box and after some initial
confusion (didn't realize it used both /var/lib and /var/cache now, thought it
was just supposed to be /var/lib) I've got things back and running
nicely. Can't wait to try out some of the new fun, like the audio podcast
plug-in.
However, I went to play some video from a data CD-ROM yesterday and it
complained. It wasn't a full-out crash, but the pop-up error with
'Shutdown' and 'Continue', although it was completely unresponsive at that
point. I could see in the background that the files on the disc were
listed. From what I see, it's wrecking trying to find/create the wrong
directory in the VFS:
Traceback (most recent call last):

in mtime
t = os.stat(name)[ST_MTIME]
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/media/cdrom0/Last
Exile'
Looks like it chokes when trying to find the modified time of the files inside.
Now that I look at it, could it be the space is giving it trouble? I can
navigate to that directory just fine from the command line, but I have to
escape the space ('Last\ Exile') for it to work properly. This worked just fine
back in 1.7.3 and I enjoyed several episodes from this disc.
Actually after some quick testing, I'm sure it's the space. A DVD of AVIs from
a friend who used no spaces in filenames plays without any kind of issues
whatsoever.
While we're on the subject of escape sequences, I've noticed that while
streaming radio from the web, the title strings get chopped off when they run
into an apostrophe/single-quote. For exmple, Simple Minds - Don instead of
Simple Minds - Don't Forget About Me. It looks like the current SVN has some
problems escaping funky characters in strings.
Don't think I can fix this one on my own (not without a lot of searching) so
someone else can hopefully get right to the heart of the problem and correct
it. Unless I'm the only one experiencing this problem? ^_^

Re: [Freevo-users] Web interface not highlighting conflicts
John, I wrote some quick-and-dirty code to highlight conflicts on the 'Scheduled Recordings' webpage, but I didn't develop it too far because I figured conflict resolution would take care of any conflicts. Basically anything that conflicted with the show above it would be highlighted in yellow. I didn't realize conflicts were highlighted in the Freevo-based guide screen. I do a lot of work on the web pages because sometimes I work from my office when I have spare time or at lunch, so the web pages are easy to check from somewhere other than my living room. So I tend to forget there are similar listings on the TV screens themselves.

Re: [Freevo-users] tv_grab_de_tvtoday
John, Tanja, Bjoern: I noticed ever since I first loaded up 1.7.3 that the web guide would stop showing shows on a channel if a program ended on a non-five-minute interval. For example, tonight the channel 4 news goes 29 minutes (?) from 23:00 to 23:29. And after that block, the schedule is empty space. For me, this usually only happens late at night, with weird shows like Jay Leno and David Letterman so it's not a huge issue. What I'm starting to research now is that the web guide stops displaying show information before the actual TV.xml runs out of data. For example, yesterday the drop down only displayed 'Fri Jan 11' and 'Sat Jan 12', but checking TV.xml showed there was plenty of data for Sunday the 13th. Additionally, all the show information was available for all of Sunday's shows with the on-screen guide. Another problem (most likely related) is that on the last day loaded in the TV.xml, the web guide data starts to 'run out' around 16:00. I haven't checked the on-screen guide for this problem, but I have a suspicion it's related to the missing day problem above. All three of these are on my list to dig into, but if anyone else wants to look into it and can fix it quick, by all means go for it! James P.S. I'm not running tv_sort. I was under the impression it's primary function was to put in valid end-times for shows. Schedules Direct data all seems to have valid end times for all their shows, so I blew off tv_sort. - Original Message From: Bjoern Franke [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net Sent: Tuesday, January 8, 2008 9:15:10 AM Subject: Re: [Freevo-users] tv_grab_de_tvtoday John Molohan schrieb: Bjoern Franke wrote: Hi Tanka, Tanja schrieb: I have just checked and see the same problem in the webinterface.

[Freevo-users] atsc scan of u.s. ota channels for hvr 950
I've gotten as far as getting Freevo 1.75 to talk to both analog and dvb sides of my hauppauge hvr 950 usb dongle. My problem is finding and using dvb-utils. I'm running Freevo on Ubuntu Gutsy, I've also tried using dvbtune, but haven't had any luck with it either. If anyone has had luck scanning for atsc u.s. over-the-air channels, please tell me how. I also have configured the dvbstreamer plugin for Freevo correctly. I recall reading somewhere on the Freevo site that this plugin could be used for scanning as well, but I couldn't find any information on how to do this.If this is possible, I'm guessing this would be the best way to scan.Finally, if anyone could post a copy their local_conf.py for atsc tv channels, that would be a big help too.
