Re: [Freevo-users] Sound saturated on a PVR-350 card
Hi
How do your options look like? I have the same card. Here are my
options, I don't have sound problems with it:
TV_IVTV_OPTIONS = {
'input' : 4,
'resolution': '720x576',
'aspect': 0,
'audio_bitmask' : 0xE9,
'bframes' : 3,
'bitrate_mode' : 0,
'bitrate' : 600,
'bitrate_peak' : 800,
'dnr_mode' : 3,
'dnr_spatial' : 0,
'dnr_temporal' : 0,
'dnr_type' : 0,
'framerate' : 0,
'framespergop' : 12,
'gop_closure' : 1,
'pulldown' : 0,
'stream_type' : 10
}

Hi,
I have a new trouble, and this trouble is probably not freevo related
(at least not directly).
I have a Hauppauge PVR-350 card as analog TV tuner, and on around half
channels, the TV audio signal seems to be a little too strong, so the
sound is saturated.
If I change a little the frequency of the channel, the picture is a
little bit badder, but I can listen to the sound. I suspect that this is
related to my cable operator, but is it possible to change something on
the audio part of the card ?
BTW, in the TV_IVTV_OPTIONS, there is a 'audio_bitmask' field, but even
reading the tv/ivtv.py didn't help me much about the use of this field.
Thanks,
Pascal

Re: [Freevo-users] Sound saturated on a PVR-350 card
Maybe you have to try to change one or more settings.
#
# Settings for ivtv based cards such as the WinTV PVR-250/350.
#
# XXX TODO: Add descriptions and valid settings for each option.
# bitrate in bps
# stream type
# Options are: 0 (mpeg2_ps), 1 (mpeg2_ts), 2 (mpeg1), 3 (mpeg2_pes_av),
# 5 (mpeg2_pes_v), 7 (mpeg2_pes_a), 10 (dvd)
I also don't know most of the options. What kind of stream type do you
use? 14? Well, try a lower one. I use 10 for DVD quality. Don't know if
there is a better (higher) value available. I would also try to change
the audio_bitmask. Try 0xE9.

Re: [Freevo-users] Question about the new ivtv_xine plugin
Richard van Paasen wrote: Pascal Schirrmann wrote: David Frager a écrit : You indicated that when you press record, the record starts. Does the record start at the time you press record or at the time you started watch TV? You are right, the record start at the begining at the show, not at the moment you press the record key. But I must admit that this is good for me : Most time, if I depress the record key, it's allready too late ! In fact, xine has 3 modes for live recording: 1. save all since the stream started 2. save all from now on 3. save all since a specific mark, up to a next mark. The mark has to be set by the user. I implemented the third method. Every time you change channels (up/down or by number), a new 'start mark' is set in the stream. This mark will also be set automatically when, according to the EPG, a new program/show starts on the current channel. When you press 'record', xine will save everything since the last mark up to the next 'start mark'. Thus, freevo saves the part of the stream since you started watching TV, since you chose another channel or since the start of the current program/show; whatever happend most recently. The recording is ended when you change channels, when the show stops according to the EPG, or when you quit watching TV. I hope this is clear. I plan to implement the other two methods too. Patches for xine_ui are ready, I plan to present a menubox in xine to ask the user to choose between the three modes, but the xine_ui developer seems kind of busy the 6 months. I also have some more patches that are pending (improved OSD with fontsizes and color). Make sure to let us all know when they're in. For now have you got them online somewhere? Quick suggestion too, you're already pulling the tv guide info and displaying it on channel change. How about modifying the DISPLAY command to show a list of the current programs from all channels instead of just the currently watched one.

[Freevo-users] Thumbnail generation problem
Hello, I have problem with thumbs in freevo since 1.8.1 I tried 1.8.2
and svn and it is still not working.
When I try to browse photos I see no thumbnails of photos or folders,
just select square. And there is error on console like:
WARNING: Problem while loading image 'thumb:///usr/share/freevo/
icons/themes/blurr/mimetypes/folder_image.png': TypeError('NoneType'
object is unsubscriptable,)
Second problem is with generated or thumbs, when I try to do it I get
errors like:
ERROR: snapshot: Could not open
/var/cache/freevo/vfs/htpc/movies/matrix_reloaded.avi.raw.tmp: 14
And since some time Freevo does not remember where have I stopped
watching movies nor any other settings.
I have python 2.5.2 (same problems with 2.5.1) and Slackware 12.0.
What can I do with this?
Best regards
KK

Sounds like a cache problem. You could move /var/cache/freevo/* out of
the way then run freevo cache and see if that helps.

Re: [Freevo-users] Thumbnail generation problem
I have tried it and it did not helped, I have cleared all freevo,
reinstalled it and still had same problem. I think it may be related
with some python libaries... but have no idea which one and what
should I do to solve it... I have tried to downgrade to python 2.4
series but I had some problems with comiling depedencies of current
libaries...

Re: [Freevo-users] Sound saturated on a PVR-350 card
On 01/10/2008 22:03, Pascal Schirrmann said the following: John Molohan a écrit : I run ivtvctl --set-ctrl=volume=65500 /dev/null 21 from a startup script as I find the audio level on my ivtv to low otherwise. Thanks John, in between, I just found this option on the ivtv wiki. The default value is 58800, and I have a correct result with 5. Luckily I finally manage o compile v4l2-ctl ! For the record, with v4l2-ctl, the syntax working for me is : v4l2-ctl --set-ctrl volume=5 Problem (nearly) solved, Thanks to all :-) This is something that I've noticed too with the PVR-350 cards, the sound levels are not the same with different cards even in the same PC and on the same channel. At the moment there is no method to set the volume from within Freevo.
