[Freevo-users] Bought a TiVo - looking for someone to take over Freevo HOWTO
Hey guys, I've been off-and-on maintaining the Freevo HOWTO, which is a DocBook covering my trials with the Freevo: http://zebulon.miester.org/~jstump/doc/freevo/html/ Now that I have a TiVo my Freevo box is been re-issued as something else (what I'm not sure yet).

But wait! A new bug in the system: the recorded show played in the background.

[Freevo-users] TV
Is tvtime just plain broken in the new version? The mplayer plugin simply goes to a black screen and immediately jumps back to the TV guide and tvtime is all sorts of screwed up. It shows the TV fine, but apparently is screwing with the framebuffer as it feels it necessary to resize the tv picture (so about 5 inches of black appears on the right of my screen). Then when I exit freevo has done the same (all scrunched up in the middle). What gives? --Joe -- -- Joe Stump, President JCS Solutions p. (734) 786 0176 f.

[Freevo-users] Freevo 1.5 issues
1.) Volume up/down and mute doesn't appear to work anymore on my lirc remote - is there a complete list of new mapping names? 2.) When I exit out of TV Freevo blacks out, re-inits and comes back all messed up (not full screen) - it's like it's not re-running the "OSD_SDL_EXEC_AFTER_STARTUP" 3.) This one's odd ... The record server plays the *sound* of what it is recording while recording. Annoying is putting it lightly :) 4.) It appears that I can't disable tv.mplayer and enable tv.tvtime in local_config.py - only in the main freevo_config.py. If I follow the steps in local_config.py TV crashes, but doesn't if I load tv.tvtime in the main config. Also, is there a complete list of config variables that have been changed or deleted with their new names?

Apparently my default settings are to encode to divx, which for viewing
is great, but for burning to DVD isn't so great (DVD-lab only uses

would assume mpg-2 is what it uses). Here is my current VCR_CMD ...

[Freevo-users] Video out of sync on recordings / randomly dropped recordings
Just recently, without a single software change Freevo just started dropping scheduled recordings randomly (ie. 8:00 show is recorded, but 8:30 is not, then the 9:00 is) - there are no conflicts either. Also, when I record the audio appears to be about a second or two ahead of the video. This only happens about 10 minutes into a show, which is really odd. Anyone have any of the same problems? Any way to resolve the issues? --Joe -- -- Joe Stump, President JCS Solutions p. (734) 786 0176 f.

Not that I can think of directly. In fact it's the opposite: there are things you can do in the web interface that you can't do in the frontend (i.e. schedule favorites).

RE: [Freevo-users] Hard Drive Space
On my 80GB hard drive I have about anywhere between 70 and 100 episodes of Seinfeld archived (because watching Soup Nazi on demand is why I built my Freevo box).

Re: [Freevo-users] add a BT878 to a G400-TV for capture?
I have the exact setup you describe. IIRC the G400-TV marvel box was not very well supported under Linux. Just like when you decided to get the Matrox because of it's superb support under Linux I decided to shell out the extra $20.00 and get a bt878 off eBay because it's the best supported chipset under Linux. I'm sure you could get the MGA running, but I'd be willing to be the $20.00 for the BT878 will be worth it for ease of setup and quality of drivers. --Joe > I'm helping a friend choose components for his Freevo box.

Re: [Freevo-users] Standalone Freevo, no internet
I think the answer to the question is the manual recording option that lets you record at a certain time/day combination. You give up favorites though. Also, the TV guide works fine without channel data AFAIK. You can select a chan and it will give you that channel - though this may not be the case with the new autodetection of channels (which you may be able to override in the local_config.py). --Joe > In message <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Rob Shortt > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes >>Tim Walter wrote: >>> I want to run it unconnected to the internet so XMLTV won't work. >>>How do I make recording work satisfactorily as it seems it depends on >>>XMLTV to obtain the TV programme times.

Re: [Freevo-users] Booting into Freevo - MPlayer doesn't work
Yeah, I read everything. Freevo plays DVD's and movies, it just doesn't play them when it very first boots into Freevo (ie. after a restart). I have to stop and then start freevo to get DVD's and movies to work. Until I restart I get "Unknown error playing file". It's not a huge deal, but I was hoping for a standalone box (and restarting freevo on each restart isn't very stand alone). --Joe > > Saturday, November 22, 2003, 3:24:43 AM, Joe wrote: > >> I'm using the Debian packages and when it boots into Freevo mplayer >> doesn't play DVD's or Movies and the log file says that an unknown error >> had occurred.

[Freevo-users] pre-record amount? re-attempts?
I have a question about the recording deamon (actually two). 1.) Does it record X minutes/seconds before the actual record time? 2.) If so if I pre-record 3 minutes show A and show B starts right after A (but 3 minutes before B) does it re-attempt to record if it notices the /dev/video devices is currently occupied? These two are pretty important IMO because my Freevo box may not be in exact sync with the cable company. And if these are configurable where are they configurable? --Joe -- Joe Stump <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.joestump.net "Label makers are proof God wants Sys Admins to be happy." --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.

Two more things 1.) I'm using mga in fb (not X) 2.) As you play a DVD the a/v gets further and further out of sync the farther into the DVD you get. Also, does Freevo ignore the OSDL_SDL_EXEC_AFTER_STARTUP in /etc/freevo/local_config.py?

[Freevo-users] Registry type global variable location?
I'm working on a small patch that allows the TV guide to remember the station that the TV was last watching. For example if you choose a station (say #2) and then you use c/v to change the channel in tvtime to another station (say #36) and then you go back to the TV guide it forgets where it was and goes back to the first station (#2 in this situation). This isn't what most users expect. They expect when they hit escape the TV guide will be sitting on #36 (the last station they were viewing). At first I thought I would create a global variable called "CUR_CHAN" which held the current channel (TunerNextChannel(), TunerPreviousChannel() and TunerSetChannel() would keep this variable up to date), but then I realized there may be a global location where variables such as this should be stored (I'm actually using config.CUR_CHAN right now). However, I'm stuck at the event PLAY_END right now. I know I need to put a self.rebuild() in there with config.CUR_CHAN as the station, but I'm not sure how to go about doing it. So my questions ... 1.) Is there a location where global variables like this should be put? 2.) Could someone explaing the parameters of TVGuide.rebuild() to me? Thanks! --Joe ps.

Re: [Freevo-users] import error with Image in CVS
I think this is incorrect. Freevo 1.3.2 works fine and appears to have an
Image.py file in the PIL directory of ./runtime/lib, however, the CVS
version does not appear to have ./runtime/lib.

Re: [Freevo-users] Video quality
I've recently been playing with video quality. I'd say the lowest you want to go is around 1200 for a bit rate. I've recorded at 4000, which is super quality, but requires quite a bit of room for an hour of video (about 2GB if I recall correctly). 1500 I believe is where I record now, which is ok quality and only 700MB per hour of video (which is small enough to fit on CD). Your mileage may vary. --Joe On Monday, August 11, 2003, at 11:02 AM, Olivier LARRIGAUDIERE wrote: Hi, I want to build a video box with freevo to remove my video recorder and my DVD player.

MySQL supports both subselects (as of 4.0) and foreign keys (through innodb tables). Also, I'd be wary of SQLite's statements that it's faster than MySQL since its tests were ran against 3.23 and not the latest 4.0 (which is odd since 4.0 has been stable for quite a while). --Joe > > Aubin > > > --- > This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including > Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now. > Download today and enter to win an XBOX or Visual Studio .NET. > http://aspnet.click-url.com/go/psa0013ave/direct;at.aspnet_072303_01/01 > ___ > Freevo-users mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freevo-users > > -- Joe Stump <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.joestump.net "Label makers are proof God wants Sys Admins to be happy." --- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.

[Freevo-users] Recording Scheduler
My recent trials with the recording aspect of Freevo has led me to the conclusion that in order to do *serious* recording within Freevo a better backend will be needed. I know one of the goals of Freevo is to build an out-of-box application, but for those of us yearning for reoccuring schedules, etc. I think something more advanced is needed. I think I'm going to build something with a MySQL backend that allows people to always record a show at a specific time on specific days. My thinking is that this will require Apache+MySQL along with a scripting language (I'm proficient in PHP so I may go that route) - this side project would also require a alternate plugin for scheduling shows that put data into the MySQL database instead of the current flat file structure. Any other ideas? I'm interested in being able to schedule shows that are on every day (Seinfeld for instance) without having to schedule them each morning when I wake up, which is how it currently works with Freevo AFAIK. --Joe -- Joe Stump <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.joestump.net "Label makers are proof God wants Sys Admins to be happy." --- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.

[Freevo-users] Recording
I'm trying to get the PVR for Freevo working and I'm having some problems. The cron job is all set up and running without any DLL problems and the logs don't show anything of any interest, but I'm not getting any recorded shows and I think I know why. In record_config.py my RECORD_SCHEDULE is set to /var/cache/freevo/record_schedule.xml, but all of my freevo stuff is in /tmp/freevo and the record schedule *appears* to be /tmp/freevo_record.lst, but I'm not sure.
