Re: [Freevo-users] HDMI output with audio in Linux?

2009-03-05 Thread Jonathan Archer
I can second that, I have the same board (Gigabyte MA78GM-S2H), I am running 
Fedora 10 with the latest ATI drivers. It took a little playing about to get 
everything to playback through the HDMI as default but once it was it works 
brilliantly.

Hi,

I have a Gigabyte motherboard (MA78GM-S2H) based on an AMD 780G chipset that 
has an HDMI out. I've connected it to my LCD TV via HDMI and it works fine. 
I've had to install Ubuntu 8.10 and the latest ATI drivers, though, to make the 
sound work through HDMI.

All,

I've been thinking some more about my future Freevo machine, one that will
work with HD, and I think I have a cunning plan ;)

I would like to stick my PC in the cupboard. This allows me to do away
with my expensive and small media centre PC and have a high powered PC
which can sit in the understairs cupboard, using nice big low noise fans,
and generally be out of the way, this also lets me have a fast CPU and
decent graphics card for HD playback and possibly even some games. It also
gets around the expansion problem or having to have a case that looks good
in the lounge.

This means running all the output from the cupboard to the Telly :)

Looking around HDMI would seem to be the best way of doing this, I can
send stereo and digital audio over HDMI along with the video signal, and
have it automagically picked up by the TV. The digital audio can then go
into the amp and be turned into surround sound if required (when playing
back DVDs). Best of all long HDMI cables are fairly cheap, and it means
only running 1 cable.

Now this is all well and good in theory, but I cannot find much
information on how to achieve this, and certainly not in linux. There
appear to be a few cards out there with HDMI out for video but no way of
getting the audio into the HDMI signal.

Does anyone know of any video / sound card pairs that fit the bill, and
most importantly actually work on Linux!

Cheers.

Sorry about the slow response on this one, I've only just had chance to check
MIXER_VOLUME_DEFAULT= 
seems to control master, not PCM. PCM is still way too loud and distorts 
everything.
I've tried creating a mixer profile and loading on boot but freevo overrides 
this. this says to me that there is a setting in there somewhere which controls 
the PCM volume.

Thanks for your help though, I'll try anything (almost)

I believe what you want is

Re: [Freevo-users] Help configuring web radio

2008-11-26 Thread Jonathan Archer
The station you have supplied doesn't seem to be a regular stream which would 
be picked up by a media player, rather a flash based stream.

A mod of the youtube plugin or similar would probably be your only option, 
unless there is another streaming method from this station?

Subject: [Freevo-users] Help configuring web radio

Hello all,

This is my first post to the list and hope someone can help me.

I want to add streaming radio to my freevo and cannot seem to get it correct. I 
am not sure what to do to make it work.

Here is what I have:

1) This is the URL to the online radio broadcast:



http://player.play.it/player/player.html?id=87&onestat=kmox



2) Here is my section of my local_config.py file for the audio:



AUDIO_ITEMS = [
('Music Collection', '/home/joeh/Music'),
('Web Radio', '/home/joeh/freevo-1.8.1/webradio'), 
'/home/joeh/freevo-1.8.1/webradio.fdx'
]



3) Here is my fdx file.





  


http://player.play.it/player/player.html?id=87&onestat=kmox

http://www.kmox.com
Talk radio and local 
sports





  Radio stations on the internet...

  




Many thanks for your time and energy.

Joe Hildreth

Hi guys,

Does anyone know the config directive to set the PCM volume on start of freevo?

For some reason even though i set volume levels on boot freevo always alters 
them when it starts, this is fine for master as my remote controls this however 
PCM seems to jump up to a level which ever so slightly distorts when playing 
music.

Any ideas?

Cheers

Jon

Hi all,

I've been looking at pyfacebook a python based module which links into 
facebook, just wondered if anyone had looked into writing a module for freevo 
to display notifications as an osd.

I'm sure it would be possible and relatively straight forward as the module is 
already written in python and the firefox facebook toolbar displays 
notifications on events such as wall posts/messages etc.

I'm just a bit poo at programming.

Is there an OSD module about to display events such as caller ID or similar as 
i'm sure a combination of this and the above module may return something 
similar to what i'm talking about.

Any ideas?

Jon
