and i fixed it myself! it was indeed a xorg problem. the bug and
solution are described here:

freevo was not at fault! thanks for making such a great mediacenter
software. :)

that command works just fine, when freevo is not running.
and if i start it on another tty if freevo is running, it gets the
correct events and passes them to freevo, but only as long as i'm on
that tty. if i switch back to freevo, i can the results of my
keypresses. i am running freevo inside Xorg without a windowmanager.

freevo also detects the keypressing correctly if i switch to tty1 (where
it gets started via autologin and .xinitrc). perhaps it's a problem with
Xorg blocking out the event6 device or lirc entirely?

even after updating freevo to latest svn (Freevo 1.8.3-svn r11193) the
problem persists. i thought it could be related to pylirc, but when i
tried the sample code from the developer's website it worked and
recognized my keypresses with the freevo lircrc correctly. so i suppose
the error is in rc.py or i have forgotten something very basic. could
someone explain what exactly happens when loading rc.py? i get the
following output wenn starting freevo and pressing a key on my remote (8
is mapped as DOWN in lircrc, non numerical keys aren't even recognized).
i'm a bit confused by the HELPER stuff and the two self.inputs lines.

[Freevo-users] weird lirc problem

2008-11-23 Thread Bastian Farkas
hi,
i have some strange lirc problem after upgrading my ubuntu install to
the latest version, while keeping freevo at 1.8.0. at the terminal
everything lirc related works. lircd is running, irw works and ircat
shows the correct events when i test my freevo-lircrc with it. but as
soon as i start freevo it won't recognize any keypresses from my remote.
and while freevo is running ircat doesn't work either. lirc is using the
linux-input interface with /dev/input/event6. the weird thing is, the
number keys are still recognized as if i would press them on a normal
keyboard. has anyone else ever had a similar problem? i have enabled
debug messages but there seems to be nothing wrong, PyLirc loads just
fine aswell.

thanks in advance
Bastian Farkas

the files should be named "amelie.cd1.[srt|sub|...]" else mplayer won't

Re: [Freevo-users] How to use and in moviefxd?

2008-08-08 Thread Bastian Farkas
hi,
there's a much easier way to switch subtitles, even while playing a
video. :)

just add this line to your local_conf.py:
EVENTS['video']['SUBLANG'] = Event(VIDEO_SEND_MPLAYER_CMD,
arg='sub_select')

and in your lircrc you'll need to assign a key to the SUBLANG event,
thene you'll be able to cycle through your subtitles while playing the
video (subtitle off is also included in that cycle).

of course the subtitle file will have to be named so that mplayer
recognizes them automatically. for example if you have "Movie.avi", your
subtitles should be named "Movie.*"

[Freevo-users] freevo 1.8.0 webinterface missing button/change style?

2008-05-13 Thread Bastian Farkas
hi,
i recently set up a new install of freevo 1.8. 
it seems that the webinterface is missing the delete/rename buttons. i
looked through library.rpy, the functions are there, but they are not
showing up, when i click on a file.
would it be possible to change the library style back to the old
listview without all the big images? it looks quite messed up if you
have long filenames.

best regards
Bastian Farkas

hmm... perhaps some problem with feisty's Twisted or Python version? i
think recently there was a discussion about dependencies on this list

i don't think we need a replacement for xine, as you already have no contact 
with the standard xine-gui in freevo.

sounds interesting. is this xbmc built on linux and open source? if so
you could simply look how it plays media files out of archives and
implement that into freevo.
this might help: http://www.inf.bme.hu/~mszeredi/avfs/

Re: [Freevo-users] does anything play vobsub?..

2007-07-23 Thread Bastian Farkas
Hi,
Both mplayer and xine support vobsub. They can display subtitles while
playing back a dvd, so it should work for avi/mkv/ogm as well. the
subtitle files need to have the same name as the video file, e.g.
video.avi video.idx video.sub, then mplayer/xine can auto detect them.
In mplayer you can press 'j' to select subtitles. rar-archives including
the sub file won't work, as mplayer/xine has no on-the-fly-decompressing
implemented (yet).

that's strange, it worked for me. if that code below really is out of

Re: [Freevo-users] How to use the nVidia framebuffer

why use the framebuffer? i use standard x11 with xv for video playback.
you can set up the tvout of your card with nvtv quite nicely, no black
borders anymore.

Re: [Freevo-users] Force xine instead of mplayer

try putting something like "plugin.disable(video.xine)" in your config.
the correct syntax should be guessable by seeing the other plugin
statements. :)

Re: [Freevo-users] Graphics card query.

2007-03-20 Thread Bastian Farkas
hi,
i'm using a tnt2 based erazor iii from elsa for tvout. you have to use
nvidia's legacy driver but the output is very nice. with the nvtv tool
you can tweak the output settings to remove black borders and get a
little overscan, so it looks just like a regular tv-picture. :)

Re: [Freevo-users] A new look

2006-12-20 Thread Bastian Farkas
err... don't you guys miss some little detail here? freevo is a
standalone app. it does not make sense in my opinion to have some fancy
graphical installer. you don't need gnome or some other desktop
environment on a dedicated freevo box (running freevo non-dedicated is
just stupid, there are lots of other media player and tv programs).
if you want it to be easy for new users to install freevo what you need
is some little distro (maybe based on debian or gentoo), which you can
ship on a single cd, with some ncurses-based installer which asks some
questions about which tvcard to use or the remote control (things which
are hard to auto-detect, but relatively easy to know even for an
inexperienced user). the best example for something like this is linvdr:

if your distro is set to french do a "locale" at the command prompt and
then set LOCALE in your local_conf.py to the same value as "LANG". it
should be something like fr_FR.UTF-8.

hi,
has anybody implemented an itunes/rhythmbox like browsing interface for
freevo's music player yet or is it planned for 2.0? i remember that
someone was developing a similar plugin some time ago. does it still
work and if where can i get it? daap client and server support would be
great, too.

arctic cooling make nice quiet fans. their 8cm version is 4cm high and
produces about 10dbA noise, but standard fans are only 2cm high. so you
could have problems installing them in a pundit.

Re: [Freevo-users] best codec/compression?

2006-07-04 Thread Bastian Farkas
mjpeg is very fast and light on the cpu, but the resulting files are
about 1gb per hour. the best compromise is having  a hardware mpeg2
encoder. ;) another option would be mpeg1, but it looks kinda ugly.

how can a standard TV (CRT) display a resolution as high as 1024x768? i

Re: [Freevo-users] avi, ogm, and others

2006-04-23 Thread Bastian Farkas
i have some mkv and several ogm files. most of the time i only need one
subtitle track and the first audio track, so i added '-sid 1' to the
ogm/mkv mplayer parameters in my freevo config. i discussed this with
dischi some time ago (try searching the archives) and iirc he said that
freevo was supposed to detect the extra tracks. i remember being able to
see them, but if i selected a different one, nothing happened. mmpython
should handle that stuff. perhaps you can fix it? :)

Re: [Freevo-users] Re: All my MP3s are played twice

2006-04-09 Thread Bastian Farkas
i encountered this little bug after compiling and installing a new
kernel. i got rid of it through recompiling mplayer from cvs (official
package should work, too) and removing the xine audio plugin
[plugin.remove(audio.xine)]. furthermore i don't use the normal
audio.mplayer plugin but audio.mplayervbr. i hope this clears things up
a bit.

It's the same like webradio.fxd just for video. A little collection of
streams accessible through a special folder in "Watch Movies" if you add
it to your VIDEO_ITEMS.

look in the freevo logfile (/var/log/freevo/main-0.log i think) to see
how freevo starts xine and then try running that exact command from the
commandline. see if you get the same error.

you could add a little hack to the image-viewer plugin that reloads the
image after a specified time. don't be afraid to play around with the
code, python is very trial&error-friendly. even i, without knowing any

the hardware requirements for mpeg2 are rather high, hence the hardware
encoders :). but you can test it if you want. i can't remember my
bitrate setting for mjpeg, it depends on your disk perfomance.

mpeg1 does not use much cpu, so does mjpeg. mjpeg has nice quality, but
you need lots of space, 1gb for about 30min iirc.

you should have something like this in your lircrc:

Re: [Freevo-users] TV guide without TV card

should be no problem if you use xmltv to grab listings from the

config, with the correct station names. you'll find information on how
to do this here: http://freevo.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/doc/XMLTV

What about things like "Cable Mice," IR transmitters that would change

system having support for it? Could something like that work? Do they 
even market those commercially?


i dont know exactly what you mean, but iirc someboy on this list is

i haven't tried anything else yet, since my mplayer configuration works 
just fine.
but the wiki might have some information for you:

Yes, that is what I have done.  I suppose this is not the correct
solution, but it works for me.

Now I discovered that mplayer does not play all mp3 files.

Is xine better as an audio player?

Or are there other players that I can use?

It turns out that the problem is that mplayer is launched with the
'-demuxer' option, which prevents it from working.
If I remove that option, it plays.

I did not find any reference to it in the local_conf.py file.

Is there a way of telling freevo not to use that option?

When I try to play audio files with Freevo, it just skip through all of

I have set Freevo to use mplayer and I can play audio files from the
command line with:

mplayer 

I assume Freevo use some options when launching mplayer and one of these
options have a wrong setting.

Can I get Freevo to just launch mplayer without specifying options?

Or how can I find out what the values of the options should be?

Re: [Freevo-users] error when selecting a TV show

2005-07-10 Thread Bastian Farkas

does the mplayer command freevo tries to run work outside of freevo?
if not, try with driver=v4l and if that works, change the driver 
settings in local_conf.py


Lee Dehmer wrote:


Ok Sorry about the many post -- but I turned on the debug in the config file...

How do I change this?

Re: [Freevo-users] error when selecting a TV show

2005-07-09 Thread Bastian Farkas

here's a little todo list for you:
-   set the VIDEO_SHOW_DATA_DIR variable in local_conf.py to a directory 
where you want extra info like images and such for your 
videos/recording be saved. i have a data dir in the same place 
as my movies dir, but you can also use the same directory in 
which you have your movies. if there is no such var in your 
config, just add it below your video_items.
-   if you want to use a ir-remotecontrol you have to install pylirc. 
you can get it here: 
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=69332 but since 
   you are a gentoo user you could try to emerge it first :)
-   the rom_drives.py failure looks strange, because it tries to acces 
 /dev/cdcroms/cdrom0, which looks like a 
typo and furthermore it detected a /dev/hdd. do you have the 
correct permissions to acces the drives?
-   looks like your user you are trying to run freevo with, has no 
sufficient rights.
   try doing a "chmod 777 /dev/mixer" to get it of the "couldn't open 
mixer" error.

   does sound work in other apps and do apps like aumix and alsamixer work?
   the last error stems from the mixer-error, too.

does your tvcard work with xawtv or mplayer if you start them manually?

plays the show, but clicking on the second (the one with the name 
alone) brings up an error that the file cannot be found.


Now the file is there in the same directory, in fact, it is the file 
that the first entry in the list is playing directly, the second, I 
presume, is the .fxd file.  Looking at the xml, the filename seems to 
be correct.  Everything in the directory is owned by me and has rw 
permissions. 
Is something in my setup screwed?



One other thing, because it may be related, there is a 3rd file in the 
directory, for each show.  It has the same name with the extension 
.fxd.raw.What is it?  It doesn't get cleaned up when I delete a 
show either.

seems like you are caching to your normal directories. remove the .raw 
files, create a special cache dir for freevo (i.e /var/cache/freevo) and 
change the corresponding  variables in your config file.

oh, there is a lot of stuff which hasn't been set up yet on your side.
i suggest you (re)read the configuration instruction in the wiki:

there is already some information in the logfile on how to get rid of

Re: [Freevo-users] what is the currently best tv tuner card for freevo?

2005-06-20 Thread Bastian Farkas

[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:


Hi all!

I am quite satiesfied with my freevo and xbox/debian setup so far - but I would 
like to move now to another system and need some advise.

1. what is the best TV Tuner card for freevo? Especially: are digital tuners 
supported as well (input: digital cable in germany)

 

hauppauge pvr cards or similar work quite well. i am using a pvr-250 for 
some time now and am really happy with it. concerning dvb support i 
cannot give much advice, but iirc dischi/rshortt have dvb cards in their 
freevo boxes.



2. what is the best way of setting everything up? TV Tuner Card in a remote 
server, that runs the whole time (for recording tasks). Or getting rid of the 
xbox setup and use a box-pc with the tuner card in it? But then I need to leave 
it running, when I want to record things, right?

 

get rid of the xbox a build a small and silent mini-itx system. if you 
have a tv-card with hardware mp2-encoder (which is highly recommended), 
an old p3 system will suffice. p3 cpus are quite powerfull and can be 
kept cool without much noise.



3. Is it useful to watch TV only via freevo when considering the questions 
above? When I use a remote record server, then I need an additional TV Tuner 
Card in the PC, that is used as the freevo frontend, right? Or can I transport 
the TV Images via network from the System with the remote TV Tuner Card to the 
freevo frontend System? Is this useful and/or practiable??

 

freevo does not have streaming support at this time. it could become 
available if the timeshifting stuff is done. personally i still use my 
tvset for watching live tv, because zapping in freevo is too slow. :)



I'm happy for every input!!

cheers,
Hans

why dont you try to repair xine, ie rebuild from source? its much better 
for watching dvds, because it has menu support. the far more easier 
thing you can try is to specifically tell freevo to start mplayer. you 
just need to go into the "file preferences menu", which is accessed by 
pressing 'e' on your keyboard or ENTER on your remote, while the dvd is 
selected in the "watch a movie" menu.

Sourceforge provides us with such a tracker:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=46652

I can't say I presonally use it much though... maybe that should 
change. :)



Some of you may have noticed my new email address.  That's because 
I'm registering a business, because some way I know there's 
potential for using Freevo commercially.  I don't have any single 
business plan, no capital, just a few bucks for a new webserver and 
some toys to hack on - ALL in my spare time because I hold a full 
time job (you know, that puts food on the table!).  I have some 
plans for a website that should help Freevo indirectly as well.  It 
is a passion of mine and I'd love to make it my actual profession so 
I'm setting myself up to pounce if an opportunity comes around. :)




If you want some help setting up I'll do what I can, I'm a proficient
web designer so I can give it some moxy.



My site's kinda plain looking at the moment because I've done no work 
at all on graphics yet.  I'm going to be looking for some free / open 
matterial to chop up for that at least.  I'm not a good artist but 
know may way around the gimp and have professional experience with 
graphics tools to recreate and digitize existing artwork.  I'll send 
you a link soon to take a peek then.



Yes, the STB is key - there's lots of work to be done though.  If we 
can stay under the radar for a little while longer, when 2.0 is fine 
we could be in a lot better position.




MicroITX x86? PowerPC or ARM could be a solution, with a couple of
hundred pounds maybe we could get a demo box/technology testbed put
together and get a team along to the next consumer electronics show.



I have my eyes on some mini-itx stuff and am always searching for a 
nice STB platform that's affordable.  Personally I think that a Freevo 
box should have a bit more balls than a 400 MHz PPC type STB.  Also, 
many of these STBs have proprietary hardware (mpeg decoders and such) 
that require closed source and expensive SDKs.  My best Freevo box is 
using microATX now and IMO its still too PC like so STB appliance is 
best.


If you have any STB links to send my way I'd be happy to check em out. 
I am still looking for the right platform to build a well rounded demo 
box out of.  I have some "Freevo box" kind of products in mind but 
even though these look nice, are still too pc-like for my taste and 
not sturdy looking like traditional STB.


-Rob

have you guys ever thought about making something like linvdr? simply 
wrapping freevo inside a tiny linux distribution on a single disc with 
easy nearly unattended installation. over a year ago i customized some 
linvdr discs for a friend, who wanted features not present in the 
standard version and had some special hardware. the main difficulty in 
making something like that for freevo lies in the hardware recognition 
and configuration. setting up tvout, tv-in with channels and xmltv and 
other things can be quite tricky. of course theres the wiki which 
provides lots of information, but the average user isnt interested in 
that, he just wants to flop in a cd, wait for the setup to finish and 
then start using the software. i suppose the best way to achieve this 
would be to create new project with people proficient in creating custom 
linux distributions.

cheers,

i created a webtv fxd file some time ago (you will probably find it if 
you search the list archives). it looks similar to the webradio file. 
you can specify a player for every stream if you need to, so you can 
play back every format which is either supported by mplayer or xine. :)

[Freevo-users] web-tv

i extended the german-news.fxp provided by the freevo package to contain some more 
stations.
http://www.humanitas-international.org/newstran/streaming-tv.htm thats the site where 
i found the additional streams. attached is my new webtv.fxd. just put it where 
webradio.fxd is located (usually /usr/local/share/freevo/fxd) or directly into your 
movie directory where you store your video files. if you want it to act like webradio 
you have to add it to your VIDEO_ITEMS in your local_conf.py. the entry should look 
like this: 'fxd/webtv.fxd'. you will probably need the realplayer libraries to play 
some streams. you can get them from the mplayer website and put them where you put 
your other w32 codecs. i use xine for playback, so you may need to change the path to 
the real libs in your xine config (default is unknown :).

Re: [Freevo-users] running mplayer from a script

empty the strings in your local_conf.py or freevo_config.py. probably you will even 
have to edit mplayer.py in src/video/plugins

[Freevo-users] favorites

2004-07-18 Thread Bastian Farkas
hi,
i have a little problem with adding favorite tv programmes for recording. one 
particular station in germany has the episode number of series in the program field of 
the xmltv listing, so when i add one series as favorite it will only record that one 
particular episode. is it possible to manually change that field in the favorites 
database?

Is there a way to setup freevo to use xine just for

[Freevo-users] streaming idea

2004-04-14 Thread Bastian Farkas
ok, its past 6am and i had an interesting idea. thats what i think :)
i dont know if it was mentioned already, so i just write it down and post
it to the list.
i'd like to have the possibility to stream everything i recorded on-demand
via the webinterface. so that i could check out my recordings in the whole
house. currently i can only download them. and downloading 2gb or so is
quite annoying just to check out if the recording succeeded, even with a
100mbit lan.
i'd appreciate any comments regardless of what kind :)

Re: [Freevo-users] Quality still sucks.

2004-04-12 Thread Bastian Farkas
afaik know the colour format doenst affect image quality much only perfomance.
i would not capture directly to divx/mp3. sure it saves space, but it uses 
a lot of
cpu time. you could try using a higher bitrate like 5000 or so.

Re: [Freevo-users] Quality still sucks.

2004-04-12 Thread Bastian Farkas
which codec are you using? i recommend mjpeg.
i'm recording at 384x288 and a qualitiy factor of 6, i think.
the quality is like vhs. good enough for watching a show and
deleting it afterwards. the filesize is about 1gig per 30min.

Does anyone have some tips for me. I'd like to still
get some compression and get a really nice videos for
the shows I want to save.
