Re: [Freevo-users] The future of Freevo(.org)
hei Dishi and all remainig freevo users I as well learned Python while hacking freevo, and I use still 1.9.2b since I wrote some plugins for my favorite remote and for my 2 line LCD and for my audio and for gaming, and and and... and this is the reason why I am waiting for my next media center experiments with whatever... and I am afrait that I will miss the great flexibility of Freevo! have a nice time Andreas Am Montag, 20. Januar 2014, 19.38:23 schrieb Dirk Meyer: Hi, I have no idea how many people still read this list, how many people still use Freevo 1.x, and how many people use 2.0 from git (I guess that is only me). I failed to get a release of Freevo 2 out. I changed too much, a complete rewrite and some parts are also written three or four times. My fault, I know -- an error made years ago and when noticed, it was too late to change it. And since I started a new job four years ago my time working on Freevo got smaller and smaller every month. Jason also is completely busy with his job. I still say Freevo 2 is ready to use, but I will not release it. I'm not sure it works with the latest clutter or gstreamer, I only know it works for me. It lacks many important features such as DVD playback (I have a BluRay Player) and TV recording. I do not need it and I don't have time to code it. Besides that, XBMC has a much bigger community, UPnP is enough for many people (even I use NAS + BubbleUPnP + TV sometimes) and new development such as Chromecast will reduce Freevo's usefulness even further. I will continue to use Freevo 2, I may even write an Android client for it (after learning Python with Freevo which was useful for getting my current job, hacking Android is a good next step), but I see no real future for Freevo without a live community and more people hacking code. If someone contributes something, I will add it. If someone needs help to get Freevo 2 running, I will provide it. Since we also lack someone maintaining the server we host and I do not want to pay for something we don't need, I will shut it down at the end of February. This means the SVN and the Wiki will be gone. If someone wants a backup of the Wiki please tell me. The code is already on github and will remain there. The mailing list on SF will continue and so will the mail server hosting freevo.org and all mail addresses will continue to be valid. Maybe after some time someone resurrects Freevo. I would love to pass the maintainership over to someone just as I took it over from Krister years ago. Maybe someone takes the kaa-stuff and writes something new and better. I'm happy to assist and I think the same is true for Jason. Maybe I will release something someday based on the current code. It was a great time, I learned a lot and it was much fun.

Re: [Freevo-users] How should Freevo 2.0 look like?
You wouldn't need detailed knowledge of Freevo's code. Just enough python to parse and write the config file, maybe split it into multiple smaller configs each focusing on one area for e.g. TV config, audio, games etc. I'm sure the other developers would have some pointers on how best to approach this. please do not mix machine writable and user editable config files... I propose: - a keyword in the today local config file when a parameter is changable by the web server, maybe a selection list or a numeric range... - a new config file that is only readable/writable by the web server and usually not edited by the user - only if a parameter is marked as controlled by webserver, it is loaded from that file, then Andreas -- All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity and more.

Re: [Freevo-users] The future of Freevo 2.0
Hei Dischi great to hear that freevo 2 is back on the road! For me, the main plus of freevo 1.x is the simple plugin API... and the powerfull configuration options. Is there allready a plan, how the plugins can be used/reused in freevo 2? is there a new API or just copy and past of the old ones? Andreas Am Sonntag, 17. Juli 2011, um 11.47:46 schrieb Dirk Meyer: Hi everyone, please read this if you are a Freebo user, even if you are no developer at all. I have been thinking about the future of Freevo 2.0 and need all your help to get it going somehow. I tried XBMC some days ago and while it looks very nice, it forces me to organize my media collection in a way I don't want to and has some usability issues (IMHO). Therefore, I still need Freevo. :) The main problem with Freevo 2.0 is my and Jason's lack of time the last year. Development was not only slow, it wasn't existant. I now have one Freevo-hacking day in my calender each week which may be dropped if the weather is too good but it is there and I plan to use it. There are some minor issues I will fix no matter what happens. But I do not have the time to finish Freevo 2.0 to make it look and feel like I want. If you want to help in any way, please answer to this mail and we can discuss it. If you need help to start (like kaa.base help), feel free to ask. Jason and I can both answer your questions. Jason: I assign your name to some smaller stuff here, I hope it is OK. ;) Freevo Core: 1. kaa.base is done and has all the cool stuff I want. If there is a bug, Jason and I will take care of it. But it shouldn't be much. 2. kaa.metadata is also done. Maybe add or change a parser, but that is not important right now. Patches are always welcome. 3. kaa.imlib2 is also working as it should and it does not play a big role in the Freevo 2.0 core. 4. The Freevo core directory is also mostly done. There are some minor bugs in the playlist stuff but it should be easy to fix. The menu reload also has some problems I need to investigate. To summarize: the core is mostly done and the remaining points are on my TODO list and I will fix them. Now the bigger problems: GUI. The clutter-based GUI can do nice stuff but needs some more work. 5. kaa.candy has the basics, but may need some nice effects like mirror-effect, better animations, etc. It has everything we need to make Freevo 2.0 work but it could be nicer. If you know C (Python not needed) and want to play with clutter or if you now Python and want to dive into kaa.candy, drop me a note. You only need to know kaa.base and clutter as dependency. 6. XBMC looks s cool. The big background images, the animations. Nice! We do have the code in Freevo 2.0 to do the same (even support to grab TV show or movie specific wallpapers and images). I need help from a designer to make look Freevo even better. Can someone make a fake screenshot how Freevo should look like? Can someone provide nice wallpapers (CC licence)? This is one of the things I can not do myself. The GUI stuff needs help from you. C programmers, Python programmers and artists. Or if you cannot help with that, tell us what you want to have. Let's dive into the media plugins: 7. kaa.beacon is mostly done. I have some minor things on my list I will do the next weeks. The big problem is a better network support. Jason: we talked about distributed beacon servers. Do you still plan to do this? Do you still have time for it? 8. kaa.popcorn (or video player) needs clutter support to write on a texture. This would enable us to draw on top of the video and put it on the background. Again: help needed here. we could either put the mplayer output on a texture or use gstreamer. Jason played with the first option but the code is not finished yet. Jason: do you think you can finish it? Others: do you want to help here? You need to understand kaa.base and kaa.popcorn (which you could change to your needs). Besides that, mplayer and/or gstreamer. The mplayer integration would also require C and clutter knowledge. The gstreamer integration needs pygstreamer. And we need to figure out how to integrate it with kaa.candy and the Freevo core. That would be my task. 9. The image viewer could look nicer. If you want to help on this smaller part of Freevo, feel free to tell me. 10. I have no time to work on TV support. I need help on working on the TV server, the TV devices (e.g. dvbstreamer), the EPG, etc. This is one of the major tasks I want to assign a new maintainer. And something different: 11. There is not webserver for Freevo 2.0. Anyone willing to take over this part? You have complete control what you want to do. I guess you have to know your HTML/CSS/JS-fu. 12. Android / iPhone support? Not needed but nice to have 13. Port plugins from Freevo 1.9 to 2.0 And last but not least: 14. It has been 2 or 3 years since I last asked for donations and I am paying

Re: [Freevo-users] video.xine.py issues
as I understand, xine is seperated in a backend xine-lib (actual is 1.1.16.2, latest is 1.1.16.3 from March 2009) and a lot of frontends like xine-ui (stable is 0.99.5), but xine-ui is only one of them, others are gxine, kaffeine, xine-plugin (for mozilla),... (and even freevo?) bindings as pyxine, Video::Xine (perl) or libxine-java use directly the xine-lib and not xine-ui! so, I think the important stuff is in the xine-lib... or is freevo depending on xine-ui?

Re: [Freevo-users] lcd
hei John I hope you find out how to change the lcd2 plugin for your needs. if you dig the code, you will find how the display size is coded. the clock and status informations are placed on the right end of the top line, probably you will have to change this position (+2). in the code you will find as well, how to controll the lcd with python commands... its allways helpfull to test the features of the lcd in the python shell... I wrote the plugin just for my needs, but maybe it is possible to merge your version with mine...? unfortuneately I have freevo not startet at the moment, but I will check the code the next time I get time for it.

[Freevo-users] Freevo Article in LinuxUser
hei all a good article about Freevo and open source MediaCenters can be found in the actual LinuxUser 01/2009 (this is german paper magazine). The authors compares Elisa, Freevo and Geexbox with (the leader) MythTV. They point the complex, but very flexible configuration of Freevo as an advantage compared to the competitors...

Re: [Freevo-users] About Freevo Hacking
So I should help you :) - how will the configuration be? kaa.config: Developers write config schema in xml files. These xml files will be converted to .py files during install. This python code can read _and_ write ini style config files. The user only sees that ini style file and you can also write a small app for configuration so the user does not need to open an editor. Jason started such an editor but it does not support all the features. - how will the plugin structure be? Similar but different at some levels. You do not have a DaemonPlugin, only a generic one and some special types for generating items for the menu (ItemPlugin as in 1.8) and for the idlebar (IdlebarPlugin as in 1.8). All plugins can use kaa.notifier's Timer and Sockets to do stuff in the background and send events if they think it is needed. - the event handling, polling? Events similar. IIRC Freevo 1.8 uses the kaa.notifier event code. You can post() and event and parts of Freevo register to that event and react on it. No polling! - what could the interface be between core and modules (like kaa)? Depends on the kaa module. Kaa defines some generic code Freevo uses. So there is no mplayer or xine video plugin in Freevo, Freevo uses kaa.popcorn to play the video. And kaa.popcorn chooses the player that should be used. That is the main difference between Freevo 1.x and 2.0: the logic is split into several modules. If you want to add a new video player, you do not have to understand one line of code from Freevo, just kaa.popcorn (and kaa.base which is used by kaa.popcorn). Similar is kaa.epg. A new source is added in kaa.epg and Freevo doesn't care. For code like the gui, kaa.mevas (trunk) or kaa.candy (experimental branch) provide the basic functions and Freevo uses it (and adds some more Freevo specific widgets). - and so on. Feel free to ask more and check out the code. thanks four your answers, Dischi! I will check it out and take a overview of the state. The architecture seems to be allready in your (and others) head... is there allready something like a chart of the software structure? Else I would be happy to start with it. What do you think is not implemented for a final switch to freevo 2 yet?

I started with that in the candy branch but there are three major things: - There is a bug in the underlying GUI engine clutter in version 0.8 I'm trying to fix with the clutter authors - Video playback does not work in the new gui code. It requires a clutter based rewrite from Jason - The gui needs more love in form of xml theme files and images 2. The TV code was rewritten. The result is the new tvserver module in freevo trunk. - It only supports DVB right now, analog and ivtv support is missing. - The code in the trunk can only schedule recordings, watching TV is not possible. I do not plan to change that because the gui is deprecated anyway. - The code with the new clutter based GUI has no TV support at all. I need to write the widgets for that. Live-TV will depend on the video playback working. - Channel mapping from DVB names to XMLTV names only works on guesses. You can not fix it yourself in the config file.

[Freevo-users] About Freevo Hacking
Hei list, I am really interested in contributing in freevo hacking, (wrote some plugins allready) but one big problem is, that I do not really know the plans of the head hackers yet! When I wrote plugins for 1.x I found a lot places in the code that should be redesigned or even cleaned from cross dependencies and other software design problems... but thinking about freevo 2 I hope for a wonderfull (software-)world where everything is fine and where hacking is easy and self understandable... Thus I am not longer interested in hacking for freevo 1.x as long as I think that my code will not be needed in freevo 2 anymore... Shouldn't we go straight to freevo 2 and forget all the detail problems of 1.x? In fact: I am interested in coding for freevo 2 but I do not see the big plan behind it yet...: - how will the configuration be? - how will the plugin structure be? - the event handling, polling? - what could the interface be between core and modules (like kaa)? - and so on. I think a discussion like that could bring freevo ahead, and bring freevo hackers together. I propose that today the most freevo users are hackers as well, and it should be possible to organise them...

Re: [Freevo-users] lirc : irw say nothing .
irw listen events on /dev/lirc, so you need a symbolic link /dev/lircd/0 called /dev/lirc, or you could use: irw -d /dev/lirc/0 NO! irw do not listen to /dev/lirc, it uses a allready running lircd daemon. (and a symlink is not possible because /dev/lirc is a directory!) next you should have a propper lircd.conf file, maybe you find one for your remote in your distro or even at http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/ else you have to train your remote (I think this is allways better) $ irrecord -d /dev/lirc/0 lircd.conf this sould generate you a valid lircd.conf file (sometimes its then called lircd.conf.conf) then try to start the lircd daemon in nodaemon mode: $ lircd -n -d /dev/lirc/0 lircd.conf you see now the output of lircd try to run now irw in annother terminal $ irw then you can copy your valid lircd.conf to /etc/ or to /etc/lirc, and try to start the daemon in the distros way: $ /etc/init.d/lircd start (or similar) if this works, your remot is up at every reboot. its a long way, but it is hard to install a general setup such that every remote out there would work plug n play :-) Andreas by Alberto Hernando wrote: El Martes, 2 de Septiembre de 2008 01:42, [EMAIL PROTECTED] escribió: [EMAIL PROTECTED] patrick]# ircat --config=/etc/freevo/lircrc freevo freevo: could not connect to socket freevo: Connection refused [EMAIL PROTECTED] patrick]# Hi.

Re: [Freevo-users] Freevo volume control question
Am Mittwoch, 25. Juni 2008 20.36:32 schrieb Benedikt Bär: Hey Duncan, Huge thanks for replying. The thing is I use irexec, but freevo does not monitor the volume change. For example, irexec sets the volume via amixer -or similar- but Freevo does not know about that. I'm, using 1.7.3. So, when I exit my game, Freevo still shows the same volume, but the actual volume is quite different, and when I then hit the volume button (which is then again controlled by Freevo), it sets the volume according to the value before starting the game. What I'm searching for is either: 1) That Freevo detects the change in alsamixer2, and adjusts itself (of course, this should be configurable), but I think this is not implemented yet why do you not use the normal way to control volume with a lircrc like begin prog = freevo button = vol- config = VOL- end begin prog = freevo button = vol+ config = VOL+ end and with a local_config.py lirc configuration like LIRCRC = '/etc/lirc/lircrc.freevo' like this freevo will get the volume change and if you configure alsamixerX it even will control it...

Re: [Freevo-users] UI idea
Hei Dischi what is the actual state of 2.0 ? I wrote/patched allready some plugins for 1.x, and my impression is that to start with coding is very easy in the beginning (after understanding the plugin methods like eventhandler/draw/poll) but becomes very hard if you try to use informations from other parts of the software... what I mean is, I miss an easy architecture design, data flows and so on. how is this in 2.0? what kind of help do you need? is there a point of start somewhere? well, my time is limited in the moment but could become better after sommer...

Well, maybe. I did not try it (does not work with Linux) but you have to laod all the images and video to do this effect. But I already have the mix of image viewer and image listing in my design. Looks very nice and bling-bling indeed. :) However, I fear that this sort of interface would *require* openGL (i.e. proprietary Nvidia or Ati/AMD driver). Which would also mean a complete rewrite of Freevo I think. It is and Freevo 2.0 (if it will see the light some day) IS a complete rewrite. I'm working on using clutter as gui backend which supports GL for some effects. And last but not least: my TV-out (via the utility 'nvtv') does not work well in combination w/ the proprietary Nvidia driver. Therefore I, for one, like the fact that Freevo is 'bling-bling less' (without GL that is). I agree. Using clutter you can always fall back to software GL. But that is slow. So yes, most animation MUST be optional. But a special plugin doing stuff like piclens could require GL and you just can not use it. But you should still be able to browse your images with other plugins not using GL. What I wonder: is someone interessent in helping me designing such new interfaces for 2.0? I would liek some ideas including suggestions HOW it could work. I don't know how TV out is w/ newer Nvidia cards and the proprietary driver compared to my GeForce2MX (Ati, I think, will never have proper *overscanned* tvout for Linux), maybe switching from PC-monitor to TV-out works fine, but until that day I prefer a GL-less interface for my Mediacenter. :) In the future you don't need TV-out, VGA/DVI/HDMI works just fine :) But like I wrote above, animations are optional.

this is path is very strange! /usr/share/freevo/images/drom do not exist at

The path does look wrong if this is a cdrom. If this is a CDROM what are
the settings for the ROM_DRIVES.
ROM_DRIVES = [ ('/media/cdrom', '/dev/cdrom', 'CD/DVD') ]
but now I found that the cdrom gets unmounted just before showing the picture
in fullsize... showing the error that the picture does not exist! with the
BACK button it is possible to navigate the CD after waiting the normal freevo
mounting process...
I use 1.8.0 and I think some other people have the same problem, where could I
start to solve it?

This would be great. The autoshutdown plugin has a default wake up time in
it. If coupled with this then you have an alarm clock feature with freevo
:) Maybe it would be good to add a submenu entry to the shutdown command
that would set the default (or specified) wake up time and set an autostart
flag that would be read to go straight into playing the radio etc. That way
it could be used without always defaulting to turning on after the
autostart_timeout?
John
The plugin ist yet very simply (see the atachement), but its open to pack more
functionality in it...
I will add it at sourceforge as well

Re: [Freevo-users] radio plugin with station images?
Hi Andreas
That was easy to change and it works now. Thanks for your support.
The only problem is that the volume is very very low playing radio this
way. Any idea?
Yes. (what card do you have? you have ecactly the same problems than with my
ivtv based card!) I do not know why, but the volume is ca. 8 times lower than
the normal sound.
I fixed it useing the attached /etc/asound.conf and the following:
RADIO_CMD = '/usr/bin/ivtv-radio -d /dev/radio0 -i /dev/video24 -c aplay -f
dat -D ukwradio %s'
I do not know if this is the propper way. In my case I think the problem is in
the ivtv driver...

Re: [Freevo-users] F-keys and mplayer
using the remote as keyboard can be good if it fits, but is very unflexible if not... on the other hand you would have full control over the key mapping using lirc (lirc.org) Anderas Hi, I was configuring freevo to fit some mediacenter-pc i bought. It came with a remote controle which sends keycodes. Unfortunately some of the keys are mapped to f1-f12, which is no problem in freevo itself, but when mplayer is running all keypresses on these keys are ignored. Is there any way to change this? Other keys are e.g. the arrow-keys on the numblock, for which pygame.locals doesnt have support. Any chance getting this to run wthout hacking pygame?

[Freevo-users] new LCD plugin
hei freevoers
I was not really satisfied with the old lcd plugin on my 2x16 iMON LCD... my
need is to be able to use freevo without any screen (at least the music),
just with the LCD!.
Since it was to complicated for me to improve the old plugin, I wrote a new
one: it is called lcd2.py (could be changed if needed)
It is written and tested for freevo-1.7.6.1 but it should work with other
versions too. It should work with different LCDs if they work together with
the old plugin but I can not test it here :-)
since I do not use TV, this is not supported yet, and since xine video shows
not a lot of infos, it is supported bad as well, and the localisation is not
well done yet.
here is a list of features:
- the header field (topline-left) shows where you are in the menu: Freevo,
Music, Images, Videos, Radio, MP3, CD-ROM, DVD/SVCD, ... (but it is not the
title of the parent as in lcd.py, it is a constructed, 8 character limited,
string)
- the info field (topline-right) shows infos like OSD would do: clock,
volume, 'Play', 'pause', but also menu-position, and it shows if the meaning
of the iMON button/wheel is changed (VOLUME, MENU,...)
- the menu line(s) help to navigate through the menu tree. I have only one,
but with the menu position/size in the info field it is much more easier to
navigate.
- the last or the second last line is used to show the player title
- the last line is used to show the player info (elapsed time / total time)
and in the image viewer the number of the actual image / total images
to show infos like volume and image-viewer infos, I had to apply event senders
in some other plugins like mixer.py, alsamixer.py, alsamixer2.py,
image/viewer.py
In image/viewer.py I also applied a patch to change the duration time in the
slideshow with the REW/FFWD buttons... and I added a new configure option
IMAGEVIEWER_PLAY_AT_START that controlls if the image player should start
automatically or only if PLAY is pressed.
Maybe this changes are not well integrated in freevo yet (undifined events,
localisation, configuration, ...) - help is recommended
hei freevo hackers, what have I to do with this? should I add a bug report?

Re: [Freevo-users] Freevo using alsa
hei Benedikt
I had similar soundcard problems:
1) alsamixer showed me no Master and no Surround/Center/LFE controls as I
expected (I had just a PCM and a Front control) for my card... - the
solution was then that for my 5.1 soundcard (NVidia hda) I have to use the
following module option in /etc/modprobe.d/alsa :
--
options snd-hda-intel model=3stack-6ch-dig
--
with this '6ch' option I find all expected channels in alsamixer, including a
correct Master control.
2) I failed with the freevo alsamixer plugin too, but I works now great with
the alsamixer2 plugin:
plugin.remove('mixer')
plugin.activate('alsamixer2')
ALSAMIXER2_MAIN_CTRL = 'Master'
ALSAMIXER2_MUTE_CTRL = 'Master'
ALSAMIXER2_CTRLS = [
# (ctrl, card, default vol, min vol, max vol)
('Master', 'hw:NVidia', 90, 0, 100),
]
--
maybe you find a similar solution?

Hi Duncan,
The Freevo box is directly connected to a 5.1 speaker system. When I
open alsamixer on the terminal, I can control the global volume of the
whole system with the PCM channel.
However, when I'm on the main menu of Freevo, I can control the volume
using the remote Vol+ and Vol- buttons. When I press one of these, the
Freevo OSD will show that it's changing the volume, but no alsa line
gets modified.
I'm thinking that maybe the volume control is not using ALSA at all. Do
I have to install some command line tool for this to work?

I have a lirc remote control, when I press Vol+ or Vol-, Freevo

However, the actual system volume is never actually changed.
I'm using alsa, and have activated the alsamixer plug-in. I have also
set PCM (which is the correct channel, according to alsamixer)
in /etc/freevo/local_conf_py (MAJOR_AUDIO_CTRL).
This happens in the menu, as well as with mplayer, etc...
I've not used this plug-in yet but have you checked that you have set up
the ALSA_MIXER variables in you local_conf.py. Use:
freevo plugins -i alsamixer
I assume that freevo has speakers connected to the Freevo box and that
you have *not* connected Freevo to a AV receiver.

When trying to play the DVD in the dvd-rom, it starts. Then it hangs a bit, I get some bits of audio and some white boxes on the screen. Anyone else with this issue? I had a similar problem and the reason was the wrong region-code of the DVD drive. The drive was set to an empty code, this means normaly that it should play every DVD, but some DVDs check this and I had to set the region-code of the drive to code 2 (Europe). The region code can normaly only be changed 5 times, I used a tool called regioncode (or similar, on Ubuntu/Debian try: aptitude search region ) Andras - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

[Freevo-users] suspend/resume of a freevo box
hei all maybe others are interested as well in how to suspend/resume a standalone freevo box. after some hours of investigations, I found a more or less proper solution... here are my experiences: - my box is an new installed gutsy/amd64 and I use the acpi-support script /etc/acpi/sleep.sh which works well if the X server is running (if not, the console stay black and X will no longer start after resume and I have not yet found why) - what I need: I will be able to suspend the box by pressing the power button and also with the freevo shutdown mechanism. 1) the easyest would probably be to run /etc/acpi/sleep.sh in the background and just to continue after resume: - one problem for me is that the lirc_imon kernel module is not yet able to survive (on the other hand, lirc_serial is!). - another problem is that if I press the power button in the moment freevo is streaming something frm a NFS mounted share or even internet radio, the resume is not properly done (whyever). 2) another solution would be to stop freevo+lirc, then run /etc/acpi/sleep.sh and then restart lirc+freevo after resume. - the first problem on my system is, that suspend/resume do not work if the X server is not running (X no more starts, whyever). - another problem is, that stopping freevo out of freevo kills also all children of it, thus the killing script is killed as well and nobody can continue... (ok, I probably found a solution for that: forking a script with the atd mechanism, the new script is then a child of the atd and no longer of the freevo process) 3) my proposed (and tested) solution is, to start freevo out of .xinitrc such that if freevo (and not X) is ended, the while loop restarts freevo after suspend/resume while X is still running... starting freevo at bootup with startx: /etc/rc.local * ... su -l -c startx 2 /dev/null exit 0 ** startx runs .xinitrc as child of the X server: /root/.xinitrc * xset s noblank xset s off xset -dpms /etc/freevo/freevo.xinit ** /etc/freevo/freevo.xinit ** #!/bin/bash sigexit=/etc/freevo/freevo.exit sigsleep=/etc/freevo/freevo.sleep while !

Re: [Freevo-users] [OT] FretsOnFire, alsa, snd-hda-intel
what I know is, that a normal sound card can handle only one speed rate at the
same time (I tried once to capture at 8kHz and wondered that playing sound
with all the other tools is so SLOW :-).
thus you have to recode the first steam to the rate of the second one in
software before mixing them together!
here http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php/.asoundrc you find the
following .asoundrc example for recoding a stream by software:
pcm_slave.sl2 {
pcm ens1371
rate 44100
}
pcm.rate_convert {
type rate
slave sl2
}
I know, it is not easy to play with .asoundrc because it is hard to test it...
I useed a well known mp3 file with mplayer... then it shows some debug
messages if you make a syntax errors and you see informations about speed and
more.

Hi there,
This is off-topic, but there´s a chance that someone here knows. I
just found how funny and addictive is the Frets On Fire (FOF) game.
Configure freevo to launch it was easy, but I found a annoying problem
(not freevo related). FOF works by mixing two ogg audio streams, one
with the guitar part of the song, and another with the other
instruments.The problem is that the game expects to use a sample rate
of 44.1khz and my sound card just cant do hardware mixing at 44.1khz,
only at 48khz. The specs from shuttle says that the sound card is a
Realtek ALC888DD (snd-hda-intel module on my 2.6.23.9 kernel). The
card can play 44.1khz streams just fine, but cant mix two or more, so
when playing the game I cant only hear half of the song.
Alsa was suposed to use dmix when hardware mixing is not there. But it
didnt work either. I tried to write a asoundrc file to explicit tell
alsa to use dmix, overriding pcm.!default and pointing it to a
swmixer, but without success. Even if the file looks ok, and I can
use the config with alsaplayer -d swmixer song the game just cant
mix the two streams. Strangely enough if I set the game to use a
sample rate of 22050hz it works, but at the cost of some sound
quality. Changing the sample rate to 48khz in the game also works, but
in this case the music play faster, with higher pitch, and gets out of
sync with the video.
Does anyone has any idea of how to fix it? perhaps there´s a magic
asoundrc? or a SDL option as the game is made in python/sdl ?

Re: [Freevo-users] suspend to RAM in freevo
hei Michael
thanks for response. I have not yet the solution, I tried the following:
- I understand well the functions of the suspend.d/ and resume.d/ scripts and
tried it, thanks for the link to the post
- my problem is to STOP freevo (In the post, freevo is NOT stopped, and I do
not understand how he can restart it after resume) because if I STOP freevo,
it kills the STOPPING script (what ever it is) as well! This looks like the
child-process tries to kill his parrent and die as well... (or not?)
- but I will try to do it exactly how it was in the post and how you pointed
it in your response...
- it would very help, if someone that was successful could post his
solution...
on the other hand: is it not possible to reinitialise lirc and lcdproc inside
freevo??? - this would be the proper solution for me, because it would be
much more faster...

Andreas,
Disclaimer: I'm not using sleep on my system (yet), but this is how I
understand it...
-Original Message-
From: Andreas Dick
the proposed solution use
SHUTDOWN_SYS_CMD = /etc/acpi/sleep.sh
the drawback is, that freevo is still running at sleep, and can not be
started at resume... (right?)
As I understand it, this script then calls scripts residing in
/etc/acpi/suspend.d in order to properly suspend the system. The post I
pointed you towards indicated the fellow who had done this had created a
script which he stuck in /etc/acpi/suspend.d which stopped freevo, lcdproc,
and lirc.
He also created another script which
he stuck in /etc/acpi/resume.d which started lirc, lcdproc, and finally
freevo as the system resumed properly.
On my Ubuntu system, the scripts in those directories begin with a number,
allowing the admin to fine-tune suspend/resume orders. You could simply
create bash scripts and stick them in those directories to deal with the
services you need to stop/start. Create a script which simply executes
/etc/init.d/[service] {stop/start} as needed, and stick it in
acpi/suspend.d or acpi/resume.d.
I tried then to use as a bash script like
SHUTDOWN_SYS_CMD script -
#!/bin/bash
freevo stop
/etc/acpi/sleep.sh
freevo -fs --
---
--
You'll just need to use the /etc/acpi/sleep.sh as the Shutdown command.
Services are best handled in the suspend. and resume.d directories. If you
need to force freevo to start with -fs, then create a script like this
#!/bin/bash
/path/to/freevo -fs
Save it in /etc/acpi/resume.d as 99-freevo.sh and make it executable.
problem is lirc_imon which do not work after
resume. (on the other hand, lirc_serial and lcdproc works fine)
if I want have lirc_imon running too, I have to restart lirc and LCDd...
but then can freevo no longer use lirc and LCDd... right?
Just make sure the resume scripts for lirc and lcdproc are numbered lower
than Freevo, like 90-lirc.sh and
91-lcdproc.sh
and that should let them start up in the right order before freevo.
- Is it maybe possible to reinitialise lirc and LCDd from inside of
freevo? (after running sleep.sh)
No need to. Just create the proper suspend and resume scripts. Think of
the suspend.d and resume.d directories as being similar to the run levels
that a normal Unix system uses for startup shutdown. Just re-read that
post
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.video.freevo.user/14423/
and hopefully it's a bit clearer now.
thanks for any help
Andreas
No worries! Hope that helps!

Re: [Freevo-users] radio over DMA
If you have to reroute the sound at the cli, then you will have to reroute the sound for freevo to use it also. 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 RADIO_DEVICE ist set to /dev/radio0, but this is only for setting the channel, not for audio 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. yes, I am using DMA , the driver is saa7134_alsa and it creates /dev/dsp1. On the other hand, with the cable, the line input of the soundcard would be used. yes, I wrote such a RADIO_CMD wraper script and it works well. my question is only, if this is the normal way to use DMA audio? - If yes, I could publish my script for others (ok, it is very short) - if no, what is normaly done? I could imagine a more proper solution with a alsa rerouting directive in .asoundrc (I will try this next) Andreas Evan - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

With line 73 uncommented the following works
GAMES_ITEMS = [
('NINTENDO', '/mnt/anime/NES',
('GENERIC','/usr/bin/tuxnes','-1/dev/input/j0 -2/dev/input/j1

But the following does not.
GAMES_ITEMS = [
('Kasteroids', '/etc/freevo/games/',
('GENERIC', '/usr/bin/kasteroids', '', '', ['kas']))

The problem is that the current generic.py passes the game selection
to the play command and to do this requires a game file. I think a
better solution would look to work like this:
GAMES_ITEMS = [
('Kasteroids', '',('GENERIC', '/usr/bin/kasteroids', '', '',
None)) ]
This way when genericitem.py is called it checks the the Suffix to see
if it is needed or not. If the suffix is None then run the cmd+args
instead of getting a file list. If I understand the _init_.py call to
genericitem.py correct, it's default action is to call util.py and run
a search to create a menu list of games to run. If instead it
checked for a suffix it will know if it should just run the cmd+args
or do a listing. I have started looking at the code and it seems like
it needs to be added to the games/_init_.py but I am not sure it may
need to be added to game.py or genericitem.py

Re: [Freevo-users] cachin of hidden files
hi freevo list
a month ago I promised to send a patch to solve my problem: 'freevo cache'
descends down to 'hidden' dirs and I see not the reason since freevo itself
do not show them...
btw, I use hidden dirs for storing my original/raw fotos from my camera and in
the normal dir a oriented/downsized copy.
so here I have a solution for 1.7.3 and also for 1.7.4:
$diff mediainfo.py freevo-1.7.4/src/util/mediainfo.py
578c578
not os.path.basename(dirname)[0] == .:
---
not os.path.basename(dirname) in
('.xvpics', '.thumbnails', '.svn'):
in the original code only some hidden dirs are excluded, but I prefere a
solution where no hidden dirs are cached at all...
- what do you think about this?
thanks and gruäss

I had a similar issue a while back where Freevo would scan folders that
has .htaccess enable. During this time I also found that if Freevo did
not have permissions to the Folder it would crash when scanning. Both
of these items are fixed and you could use either methods to keep Freevo
out of that directory.

scannin the

[Freevo-users] cachin of hidden files
hei maybe for the wishlist, maybe a bug? I do not like that 'freevo cache' scans also hidden directories (with a heading dot) as also the image viewer do not show them. I can not understand why hidden dirs should be scanned if they are not showed... (so I think this is a bug..?) why I like to use hidden dirs in the images and music dirs? I store e.g. my original fotos in the /foto_xy/.orig/ folder (read only) and use only a resized/optimized copy in the /fotos_xy/ folder for showing. thus scannin the original fotos make no sense here and needs a lot of cache time/space for nothing... other meanings? should I try find a fix/patch for it? thanks Andreas - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Re: [Freevo-users] rotating images
thanks! works fine! maybe this is configurable sometimes... Andreas Am Samstag 10 November 2007 20:42:36 schrieb Pirlouwi: Andreas, I think you can easily change the rotation behavior by swaping two events in the file Event.py. You can find this file as a part of Freevo in my system it is in /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/freevo/event.py directory. You must modify lines 443 and 444 in the IMAGE_EVENTS array. 'LEFT' : Event(IMAGE_ROTATE, arg='left'), 'RIGHT' : Event(IMAGE_ROTATE, arg='right'), has to become: 'LEFT' : Event(IMAGE_ROTATE, arg='right'), 'RIGHT' : Event(IMAGE_ROTATE, arg='left'), Just try this and tell me if it works. Beware that this change will be overwritten next time you upgrade Freevo. Cheers, Pirlouwi.

If you do then you can try setting IMAGEVIEWER_DURATION=0 in local_conf.py. Actually this is the default so if it has not been changed then the images should be paused. Slide-shows are controlled from the fxd files, so a duration of 0 pauses the slide show until a key is pressed. HTH Duncan - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

well... does anyone recomend a good and inexpensive usb ir receiver? since you have allready a remote, you could make a homebrew receiver for your serial or mic input... as described at lirc.org I had a similar problem with my USB soundcard (Audigy2NX)...

Re: [Freevo-users] IR on Shuttle SG33G5M
what about `cat /proc/bus/input/devices` ?
if your remote is used as input device you could try to find out more with the

I`m using lirc 0.83pre1 as the stable one doesnt compile against

Are you sure that this is the ir usb device, this is the LCD display.
What about Bus 006 Device 002: ID 04cf:0022 Myson Century, Inc.
The Myson device is my usb keyboard. as I understand the Shuttle is a
kind of 2-in-1 device, it has the dislplay and the ir receiver. dmesg
shows this:

see? it grabs two two inputs.
yesterday I tried the lirc+devinput but without success.
You can try adding these and removing the shuttle2. IIRC someone, on the
lirc list, had a similar problem with their shuttle remote and resolved
it this way.
so I changed lirc_mceusb2 and added:
#define VENDOR_SHUTTLE2 0x051c
/* Shuttle eHome Infrared Transceiver */
{ USB_DEVICE(VENDOR_SHUTTLE2, 0x0005) },
freevo:~# modprobe lirc_mceusb2 debug=1

Since I had a guess about usbhid, I tried to unload usbhid, and load
lircmceusb2, and the result is something like a lirc_mceusb2: found
inbound .. followed by a nice oops.
mode2 cant find the /dev/lirc device. I tried to mknod the device
and mode2 still dont find it.
while booting I'm seeing this on dmesg:

You can also use the dev/input driver for lirc, there is a page on the
wiki about this.
I used dev/input before for a bttv card. I did a minimal test here
trying to cat /dev/input/evenX file, and pressing keys on remote,
but only got a empty file. I will try the proper lirc dev/input thing.
But since the hid-core is complaining about the endpoint i dont have
much hope.

any suggestions?
Andreas
I get the same crash condition on my Freevo 1.7.3 installation (was fine
in 1.6.x); however, in my situation, the crash occurs when I use the
period key on my keyboard. Using the eject button on the CD drive works
fine. Also, the problem only occurs if I hit the period key to eject
the tray when there's no media in the drive or if I hit the period key
to close the tray and there's no media.
Digging around in rom_drives.py, I noticed that the logic used for
open differs from that used for close. So, I modified the dir ==
'open' section along the lines of dir == 'close' as follows:
296,303c296,305
if os.uname()[0] == 'FreeBSD':
s = ioctl(fd, CDIOCEJECT, 0)
else:
s = ioctl(fd, CDROMEJECT)
self.tray_open = 1
finally:
os.close(fd)
---
try:
if os.uname()[0] == 'FreeBSD':
s = ioctl(fd, CDIOCEJECT, 0)
else:
s = ioctl(fd, CDROMEJECT)
self.tray_open = 1
finally:
os.close(fd)
except Exception, e:
_debug_('Cannot open %s: %s' % (self.devicename,
e), config.DWARNING)
I'm not a programmer, so I don't know if the above is the right way to
fix the problem or not, but Freevo no longer crashes when I use the
period key to open/close the CD drive and there's no media in the tray;
instead, a warning message is written to the log.
Hope that helps.

I use freevo 1.7.2 on a fresh feisty setup, and the 12 mouse buttons and the gamepad (Logitech Dual Action) are supported well with the evdev and js drivers. Also am I able to map the mouse buttons with xbindkeys/xvkbd and the gamepad buttons and axis with joy2key... this works fine to navigate in freevo, and in some games, but it do not work in games where gamepad and mouse are configured inside... is there no general possibility to remap a button such that no app is able to ignore it? maybe I have to hack and to compile the kernel such that even X do not know about the remap?

You will need to apply the patch to the pygame sources and build them.
Afterwards it will work fine.

Re: [Freevo-users] mplayer and svd's
I believe PAL should be 768x576, so 480x576 is indeed a strange resolution for video the PAL standard only defines the number of lines: 576 (NTSC: 480) due to the old analog CRT TV monitors, the number of horizontal pixels only depends on the quality and the technology, the TV just scales the signal to the equivalent number of pixels for some technologies (non-square pixels): PAL TV: ~350 VHS: ~240 S-VHS: ~400 SVCD: ~480 DVD: ~720 see also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_resolution I propose to scale the signal to any 4:3 resolution Andreas 2007/1/22, Duncan Webb [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Cornelius Koelbel wrote: Hello, found some of the old self-burned super video CDs and put them into my freevo box, which is running with directfb (matrox) and freevo 1.6.0.

[Freevo-users] lirc and usb soundcards
hello
I have a usb soundcard (audigy 2 nx) and I tried out the remote control with
lirc. yes, with a new linux (kubuntu 6.10) it works out of the box!
but when I unfortuenately pressed the power button, the soundcard shuts down
and lircd do not release the device /dev/lircd, thus also alsa hangs and even
repowering the soundcard do not help!
I wrote then a small python script using dbus, its my first deamon, shuting
down lircd if a signal on the dbus arrives... so I can repower the soundcard,
restart lircd and also alsa is automaticly available again!
maybe there would be a better solution, more easy to configure? on the other
hand am I able now to use the power button as normal event button, and I am
very happy!

bus.get_object('org.freedesktop.Hal', '/org/freedesktop/Hal/Manager')
hal_manager = dbus.Interface(hal_manager_obj, 'org.freedesktop.Hal.Manager')
hal_manager.connect_to_signal('DeviceAdded', device_added_callback)
hal_manager.connect_to_signal('DeviceRemoved', device_removed_callback)
mainloop = gobject.MainLoop()
mainloop.run()
end of code
replace the dbus string (like /usb_device_41e_3020_noserial_if0_oss_pcm_0_0)
with a one you observed while watching the dbus with lshal --monitor

[Freevo-users] how to deal with spezial input devices?
hi freevo friends Im using freevo and I have a USB Logitech UltraX Remote Control which works only partial under Linux: some keys are normal keyboard keys, some I can remap in X with xmodmap, and some do not work at all. I just installed kubuntu dapper and the xorg 7.0 togheter with evdev seems to be able to handle all the remote keys over the /dev/input/event* device files. (also it supports all my spezial multimedia keys of keyboard and mouse, and also my gamepad is supportet!) to check this, I used evtest (found in the dvb-utils package) and evrouter (found here http://www.bedroomlan.org/~alexios/files/SOFTWARE/evrouter/ ) now my question: what is the normal way to say freevo (or even X, or fb) what action to execute in the case of a pressed remote key? I could imagine evrouter, xmodmap, ... ? is it better to do the action on a base level as e.g. amixer to control volume or to route it trough X to freevo tp do it? also have I the problem that xine takes the control of the keyboard when showing a film... is it possible to change this? or is mplayer better in this case? thank you for your experience Andreas - Using Tomcat but need to do more?

Jason will clean this up and after that I will transform the gui code to kaa.canvas. Right now I'm working again at kaa.beacon, but it takes some time. I could check in my working copy every day so you see some changes, but I don't see the point in that. And we need a working kaa.player before I integrate kaa.beacon (or the player stuff won't work as it shuld be). So you see I'm busy working on 2.0 but it takes time. We need more developers to speed things up, there are many things on our roadmap for 2.0 pre1, the major three are listed above. Right now I expect Freevo 2.0 to be out in October or November (depending if I'm on vacation in October or September). But I said something like this before, it is hard to guess. so. a good reason to wait to Freevo 2.0 ... and I will do that !!! I now found your very busy devel mailing list, its just the homepage News that are not up to date ... but you are right, it is not that fun to install every week a new version... just in the moment I stay on the stable branche and use it... good night Andreas Using Tomcat but need to do more?
