[Freevo-users] Suspend and set alarm
Would there be a way to suspend within freevo (and without actually closing freevo) and set an alarm in the bios (mine is at /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm coz i'm in ArchLinux) to resume at next recording or the default wakeup time. Also, would this be possible without activating the autoshutdown plugin or do we need that for the acpi/nvram? Ps, Arch uses pm-utils. I can suspend with a simple "sudo pm-suspend".

The whole project seems like a duct taped mess. And third party plugins can be even worse -- honestly, the ugliest Python I've ever seen anyone write. Freevo on the other hand seems like a cleaner and more mature open source project. I haven't actually looked at any of its code yet, but just having dealt with the config system, it feels a lot more well thought-out. Even just rather simple things like being able to disable functions (like TV or music) that you don't want to use. > If this isn't in the wiki feel free to contribute back by adding a short > bit about it now that you've got your answer. > I've added it to the FAQ! -- Come build with us!

This folder.fxd file also looks like the right way to disable use of tags in my videos, via the DIRECTORY_USE_MEDIAID_TAG_NAMES option, without also turning off tags for my music. A lot of my videos seem to have garbage tags. -- Come build with us! The BlackBerry(R) Developer Conference in SF, CA is the only developer event you need to attend this year.

It seems to be a more and more common requirement and most people would be under the impression that it isn't possible. John -- Come build with us!

With 1 card you may run into issues with the recordserver change the channel on you or you changing the channel whilst recording! That said, all you need to do is change set the VideoGroup on the machine in the lounge to something like this: TV_VIDEO_GROUPS = [ VideoGroup(vdev='recordserver:1', desc='TV', group_type="dvb", ), ] where vdev='recordserver:1' breaks down to recordserver=>the server in the loft, 1=> the number of the DVB adapter to use. Finally you need to make sure that you have the dvbstreamer instances started! Couple of additional things, first you might want to enable AVS Only in dvbstreamer. This means that only Audio, Video and Subtitles are streamed not the interactive content. (use a startup file and add the single line "setavsonly on" to it.) Second, not massively tested (ie the wife hasn't tried to break it) is the livepauseserver which can sit on the record server and use the disk in the loft for buffering, meaning you could have the lounge machine diskless. Hope this is helpful. Cheers Adam -- Come build with us! The BlackBerry(R) Developer Conference in SF, CA is the only developer event you need to attend this year.

Currently not working, but yes, that is was design goal for 2.0. You can have several TV devices in your network, one TV server (scheduler), and several Freevo frontends.
