Re: [Freevo-users] Re: [PATCH] Headlines
Dirk Meyer wrote: Thanks, it also works here and it's in cvs. One big problem with your patch is that it doesn't keep the main loop alive. When the headlines are fetched, Freevo is blocked. This is bad for keeping mbus and other timers alive. One bad solution would be to wrap it in a thread (using util.fthread.call). The best way would be to use the non blocking socket in fsocket. Maybe we need to good way to combine fsocket with the urllib. I'll take a look at the possibilities. Non-blocking seems the way to go, but threading should be do-able too. Either way, I'll try to fix it :) Eric --- The SF.Net email is sponsored by: Beat the post-holiday blues Get a FREE limited edition SourceForge.net t-shirt from ThinkGeek.

[Freevo-users] [PATCH] Headlines (was: Re: [Announce] Freevo release plan)
Dirk Meyer wrote: We need more help. We need someone fixing the games section and the command and headline plugin. Please send a patch and if you want to maintain this sections, we can also talk about cvs access. First try at a patch for the headlines plugin. As I mentioned before, I'm not fully up to speed with all the GUI stuff. But these changes seem to work on my end. The plugin also has some extra code for recognizing RSS versus Atom feeds. Both feed types are quite similar for the stuff we get from them. There is a configuration value config.MAX_HEADLINE_AGE. Maybe this one should be added to the main configuration file(s). The extra check if the value exists and the default value should then be removed from the plugin code. Eric headlines.patch.gz Description: Binary data
Re: [Freevo-users] runtime config changes
Richard van Paasen wrote: The advantage that XML offers is that it adds the hierarchy that Freevo config files are currently missing. The impact of a erro in XML format is indeed huge, on the other hand. But most of the time well debug-able. And a better hierarchy would indeed be a very big plus. It would at least bind some options toghether. Maybe YAML (posted some days ago) could be an option here. I don't have experience with YAML, but it looks OK, for what I've read from the YAML site. It adds hierarchy without too much tagging. I haven't looked at YAML for very long, but I guess using YAML would mean people have to 'learn' YAML before they can start using the config file. I don't know if that is a big problem. Eric --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business? Tell us what you think of them.

Dale Cooper wrote: However, if _some_ parts of config should be done still in vi (nano, ..your fav editor) it would be IMHO better to keep the config file the way it is now -> more readable for humans. Also, if someone omits/accidentally deletes XML closing tag for example...all XML parsing goes to hell. True, but when making mistakes in the current config file, the system doesn't work either :) XML is more 'difficult' to edit then most config formats, but it has a few advantages. And my guess is that people who can setup Freevo at the moment should have no problem with the XML format. Personally, I think XML is very easy to read and write. Maybe even easier then Python when it comes to maps and structures, but that's because I work with other languages to much. All those datatypes and structures are messing up my head ;) Eric --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?

Dale Cooper wrote: Hum, on the other hand, is anyone actually recording movies from TV to _keep_ them? I mean - we have got DVD, right... and if not then P2P :) I for one hate movies run on TV for these reasons: In my case: no :) Cable TV here is always 4:3, so all 16:9 movies are cropped. Quality is not as good as DVD and you have to remove the commercials. So the only reason I record TV is for normal shows that don't come out on DVD or that are 4:3 by origin. a) it is in 99% dubbed (not VO). Thats why I bought DVD to watch it in English, French, German, Chinese... whatever the original was... (ah -with subtitles, of course :) ) Fortunately most programs here are in the original language with subtitles. b) sound is just stereo, not DD, DTS, 5+1 Depends on your source ofcourse. Digital TV has MPEG2 video with 5.1 sound. In theory, because most programs are still broadcasted in Stereo :) Eric --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?

Dirk Meyer wrote: Great. But maybe a home server isn't that good, Freevo isn't a small project anymore. I think Dale ment that he installed it at home to try things out ;) I think hosting won't be a problem. 1. still use sf, but with better security, a different wiki with logins, maybe a CMS. I don't know what the limitations are with SF hosting. Most CMS's have a few requirements that not all servers have. 2. use an isp and www.freevo.org. Move all the web stuff to a new server. Seems to be the best approach, but more difficult and 'unstable'. I don't care what solution we choose, the only thing is: I want to code and someone else should take care of all the web stuff. If someone has a root server somewere, this would be really cool! 'I' (the company I work for) has a few. Don't know if I can use them tough, but I guess more people have such resources available.

We've decided to take a better look at EZPublish, but even that CMS has some flaws (for example, bad administration interface and too steep learning curve for normal users).

[Freevo-users] FYI: Dutch TV guide with logo's
Hi, I don't know if this has been brought up before, but Dutch users can use another XMLTV grabber. There is a modified script at http://www.addictivesoftware.net/index.php?option=content&task=view&id=3&Itemid=28 that is much quicker then the default tv_grab_nl. I works as a proxy for the default tv_grab_nl script (like tv_grab_nl_wolf), but contains logo-links for all the channels in the list.
