[Freevo-users] please help fix TV play using 1.7.4 on Ubuntu Gusty
I am having a hard time configuring 1.7.4. the previous version that I gladely used for over 2 years was 1.5.0 on Debian Sarge I had a HD failure, so I am going through the installation hardship once again. This time on Ubuntu 7.10 Gusty Gibbon I've got most running OK, except for watching TV (not recording) . i have mplayer configured as the TV player. Please help me resolve this. I assume that I am not configuring the video (Tv) correctly. it seems that freevo does not understand that I am using an external tuner, and am feeding the video analog composite into a PVR-150. I added two debug print lines in mplayer.py to see what was going on: Here are the additions after line 98 if mode == 'tv': *print 'vg.group_type is %s' % vg.group_type* if vg.group_type == 'ivtv': after line 171 args += (tvcmd,) *print args* mpl = '--prio=%s %s -vo %s %s -ao %s %s -slave %s %s' % args This adds the higligted lines in the log below it seems that vg.group is 'normal' and that the mplayer command assumes a TV receiver as so: *mpl = (-20, '/usr/bin/mplayer', 'xv,sdl,x11,', '', 'oss:/dev/dsp', '-autosync 100 -nolirc -nojoystick -autoq 100 -screenw 800 -screenh 600 -fs', 'tv:// -tv driver=v4l:freq= 77.250:device=/dev/video0:input=0:norm=NTSC:width=768:height=576:outfmt=yuy2-vop pp=ci') *the log dump (after turning on debug) is: Freevo 1.7.4 r10133 started at Mon Nov 19 21:51:47 2007 2007-11-19 21:51:47,410 INFO config.py (477): logdir: /var/log /var/log/freevo 2007-11-19 21:51:47,411 INFO config.py (478): staticdir: /var/lib /var/lib/freevo 2007-11-19 21:51:47,411 INFO config.py (479): cachedir: /var/cache /var/cache/freevo 2007-11-19 21:51:47,447 INFO config.py (498): Loading freevo configuration file "/home/ilan/.freevo/freevo.conf" 2007-11-19 21:51:47,638 INFO config.py (585): Loading local configuration file "/etc/freevo/local_conf.py" Error: VIDEO_SHOW_DATA_DIR not found ROM_DRIVES: Auto-detected and added "('/media/cdrom0', '/dev/hdd', 'CD-1')" 2007-11-19 21:51:47,831 INFO config.py (983): overlaydir: /var/cache/freevo/vfs 2007-11-19 21:51:47,836 DEBUGconfig.py (1017): Using 'UTF-8' encoding 2007-11-19 21:51:47,836 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'cdparanoia': '/usr/bin/cdparanoia' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,836 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'height': 600 2007-11-19 21:51:47,837 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'df_xine': '' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,837 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'xmame': '' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,837 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'xine': '/usr/bin/xine' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,837 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'lame': '/usr/bin/lame' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,837 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'tv': 'ntsc' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,838 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'jpegtran': '/usr/bin/jpegtran' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,838 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'width': 800 2007-11-19 21:51:47,838 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'version': '2.1' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,838 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'snes': '' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,839 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'tvtime': '/usr/bin/tvtime' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,839 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'lsdvd': '/usr/bin/lsdvd' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,839 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'oggenc': '/usr/bin/oggenc' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,839 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'vlc': '/usr/bin/vlc' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,840 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'fbxine': '/usr/bin/fbxine' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,840 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'mplayer': '/usr/bin/mplayer' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,840 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'flac': '/usr/bin/flac' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,840 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'setterm': '/usr/bin/setterm' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,841 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'geometry': '800x600' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,841 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'mencoder': '/usr/bin/mencoder' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,841 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'mpav': '' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,841 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'renice': '/usr/bin/renice' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,841 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'chanlist': 'us-cable' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,842 DEBUGconfig.py (1020): 'display': 'x11' 2007-11-19 21:51:47,957 INFO new process watcher instance 2007-11-19 21:51:48,274 DEBUGaudio/mpeg registered 2007-11-19 21:51:48,274 DEBUGaudio/ac3 registered 2007-11-19 21:51:48,274 DEBUGapplication/adts registered 2007-11-19 21:51:48,274 DEBUGaudio/m4a registered 2007-11-19 21:51:48,274 DEBUGapplication/ogg registered 2007-11-19 21:51:48,275 DEBUGapplication/pcm registered 2007-11-19 21:51:48,275 DEBUGvideo/asf registered 2007-11-19 21:51:48,275 DEBUGvideo/flv registered 2007-11-19 21:51:48,275 DEBUGapplication/mkv registered 2007-11-19 21:51:48,275 DEBUGvideo/quicktime registered 2007-11-19 21:51:48,275 DEBUGvideo/mpeg registered 2007-11-19 21:51:48,276 DEBUGapplication/ogg registered 2007-11-19 21:51:48,276 DEBUGvideo/real registered 2007-11-19 21:5
Re: [Freevo-users] PAL TV interlaced
Thanks John, I have progressed quite alot in the meantime. I can re-construct the problem even outside Freevo: sequence 1 : results in a good picture 1. when the system is re-booted I run mplayer /dev/video0. I get a noisy picture, most of which is noise (like the PVR-150 tuner noise) and a small tv stripe at the bottom. I looked at the ivtvctl results and it is configured to input 6 ( I use input 3 for TV input) 2. I do ivtvctl AND set input to 3 (composite) 3. repeat "mplayer /dev/video0" and now get a clear picture 4. If I now start freevo I get a clear recording and clear TV picture. This is also true if I start freevo after step 1. sequence 2 : results in a badly interlaced picture 1. when the system is re-booted I do ivtvctl AND set input to 3 (composite) 2. run "mplayer /dev/video0" and now get a bad interlaced picture 3. If I now start freevo I get a bad recording and bad TV picture. This is also true if I start freevo after step 1. my take is that this is an ivtv issue. I tried downloading the latest ivtv 3.7h but am having trouble with the Make command. I have posted for help in the ivtv mailing lists. I can also mention that as my freevo is configured to startup automatically with KDE , I can let it go through this process and as lon as I exit freevo without doing anything, I can continue with sequence 1 and all is good. Thanks for your help and keep enjoying life.

RE: [Freevo-users] PAL TV interlaced
thanks John, will do. I suspect that the problem is in the ivtv setting, as the mplayer options should only effect playback. As I wrote, the problem also apears in the recording. Am I correct? I am intending to run the freevo through a debugger, and look for where the IVTV parameters are set (written). In what module is this set? Can you recommend a debug tool? thanks Ilan -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of John Molohan Sent: Monday, August 22, 2005 11:42 AM To: freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Freevo-users] PAL TV interlaced Ilan Barak wrote: > Evidently, I am having difficulties with this mailing list. > Looks good from here. > I need help in the recorded (and displayes) TV video quality, a > description follows > > > HW: PVR-150 and TV-out NV FX-5200 based. > I use an external satellite STB with analog video/audio connected to the > PVR-150.

[Freevo-users] PAL TV interlaced
HW: PVR-150 and TV-out NV FX-5200 based. I use an external satellite STB with analog video/audio connected to the PVR-150. PVR-150 input 3, standard PAL (Israel) When I pipe directly from /dev/video0 to mplayer without any options I get a clear picture. However, using freevo in TV show mode or record/playback I get what appears to be an interlaced picture. I also viewed the recorded file on DivX player (on a windows machine) and see the same vertical blur. my conf file is attached. any suggestions? thanks Ilan Start your day with Yahoo! - make it your home page local_conf.py Description: 355271940-local_conf.py
