 Hi again Andreas,
 
 I installed Freevo 1.7.8.1, and I'm using now the alsamixer2 plug-in. So
 far everything seems to work, except two things:
 
 1) The idlebar.volume plug-in does not work with alsamixer2. Is there
 any workaround? 
 
 2) I have a separate input for my TV card, which loops into the 'Line'
 channel. I would like that alsamixer2 keeps PCM  Line at the same
 levels. Is this possible? Here's my current config:

No, ALSAMIXER2 can't do this.


 ALSAMIXER2_MAIN_CTRL = 'PCM'
 # ALSAMIXER2_MUTE_CTRL = 'Headphone'
 ALSAMIXER2_CTRLS = [
 #   (ctrl, card, default vol, min vol, max vol)
 ('PCM','hw:SB',90,0,100),
 ('Line', 'hw:SB', 90, 0, 100),
 ]
 
 When I remove the PCM line, alsamixer2 controls the Line volume, but not
 the PCM anymore :(.

This behaviour is intentional. ALSAMIXER2 only control the volume of the 
ALSAMIXER2_MAIN_CTRL. If the MAIN_CTRL is not set, it use the first 
control in the CTRLS list.

I was working on an update to the plugin that would be able to handle 
your setup. I haven't had the time yet to clean it up and submit it. 
I'll try to do so in the short future.

 Hi Andreas,

 I do have the all the 6 channel for the volume control. In addition, I

 volume), so the sound card itself works fine in 6ch mode (I tested it
 with a DVD).
 well.

 However, the alsamixer plug-in does not control either of the 6
 channels, nor the PCM volume.

 I'm interested in trying alsamixer2, but I can't find this plug-in when
 listing them in freevo.

 How can I get it?
 I use freevo 1.7.6.1, and maybe it was added after 1.7.3 you are using.
 since you use 1.7.3 I suppose you installed it with your packet manager 
 (apt?)
 normaly it is very easy to install a new version from sources over the old 
 installed version (at your own risk!):
 - download it from 
 http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=46652
 - # tar -xzf freevo-1.7.6.1.tar.gz
 - # cd freevo-1.7.6.1/
 - # python setup.py install
 - maybe you have to change something in your local_conf.py (?)
 (the risk could be, that your packetmanager do not know about the new 
 version, 
 and it is maybe not able to remove it properly if needed...)

 Hi Duncan,

 I just solved this by changing the alsamixer2 code. It's not very
 generic, but it works for my setup.

 Basically, what I did was changing the volume change function to iterate
 through the controls list, and applying the volume.
 
 It may be a general solution.
 
 Maybe in future releases it is possible to have some more configurations
 in alsamixer, to satisfy such set-ups.

 Also, an option to mute the channel by turning the volume 0 would be
 nice, as the PCM control on my card doesn't have a mute switch.
 
 Freevo normally sets the volumne to zero, may be the alsamixer2 plug-in 
 does not conform as it should.

Hmm... I wasn't aware of this. ALSAMIXER2 doesn't set the volume to 0, 
it flips the mute switch. If this is against Freevo standards, I'll 
change it.

...juerg




 I've also solved the problem with the idlebar volume plug-in, by
 changing the plugin.getbyname argument to ALSAMIXER2 instead of
 MIXER. Maybe the volume plug-in will be able to automatically detect
 this in the future.
 
 Should be the default:

...juerg



 First, a big thank you to you for using Freevo! A good choice, if I
 may say so,  :-)  and without your support there would be no Freevo.

 A special thanks to all that have contributed since the release of
 1.7.2 by sending in translations, patches for new features and bug
 fixes, testing, reporting problems, updating the wiki pages and for
 helping others with problems on the lists. All of this helps keep
 Freevo alive and well.

 A particular thank to:
 Adam Charrett for his great recordings manager a button bar plug-ins
 Wout Clymans for his audio scrobbler plug-in
 Pierre Ossman for updating the Apple trailers plug-in
 Ringj Cn for the new Chinese translation
 Lefteris F. Sarakinos for the new Greek translation
 Pascal Schirrmann for the French translation updates
 Gorka Olaizola for the Spanish translation updates
 Valera Koval for the work on mplayer field dominance and interlacing
 and there are many more names see the change log for a full list and,
 if I've forgotten you, your efforts are greatly appreciated.

 As well as those items listed above there are other changes that are
 worthy mentioning, you can now link you personal web pages to the
 Freevo web pages, you can start freevo in the full-screen mode and
 pass settings to the x-server and you can have pops and clicks as you
 move about the menu. The logging is now done with the Python logger
 which gives accurate timestamps. The child process are now run with
 Python's subprocess module.

 If you haven't contributed anything, no problem, using Freevo is what
 it is all about. Please do feel free to help out by adding and
 updating wiki pages, the wiki is very important for exchanging
 information. There are also translations to be written and maintained.
 And if you have a bit of programming inclination your very welcome to
 provide patches and fixes, I don't bite... much :)

 The complete change log is here:

Re: [Freevo-users] HOWTO: Sensors on via EPIA systems and idlebar plugin

Hi Stephen,

On 6/7/07, Stephen Rowles [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
 Using 2.6.21 I can finally get reliable data from my via EPIA system
 about temperature - yay!

 I've updated the Sensors section of the idlebar wiki:

 http://freevo.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/doc/IdlebarPlugins

 to include a mini howto with the plugin line you need. Anyone wanting
 this to work will need this bug fixed in their freevo distribution:

 http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detailaid=1731892group_id=46652atid=446895

 (thanks Duncan!)

 It also seems that the via driver returns data at a different scale for
 the CPU than the other data - sigh, so as described in the wiki link
 above, you will need to scale the original temp up by a factor of 10
 before then scaling.

I'm the author of said driver. No need to sigh, that behavior is by
design for good reasons :-) The driver returns what the chip reads at
its inputs. For temp1, this value depends on the implementation of the
board (value of external scaling resistors). The driver can't possibly
know what does values are so scaling is left to the user. Temp2 is
different since it's the chips internal temperature which is always
identical for all boards and thus the driver does the correct scaling.

Check out Documentation/hwmon/vt1211 in the kernel source tree for a
detailed description of the driver.

...juerg


 e.g.

 plugin.activate('idlebar.system.sensors', level=30, args=(('temp1','((@ * 10) 
 - 73.869) / 0.9528'), 'temp2', None))


 Posting here to ensure people find out about it :)


 Cheers all, loving freevo :D

 My sigh wasn't about the driver, more the slightly strange behaviour
 difference between the sensors config and the config needed in freevo. I
 understand that scaling has to be done outside the driver :)

 In /etc/sensors.conf there is the following for temp1:

 compute temp1  (@ - 73.869) / 0.9528,  (@ * 0.9528) + 73.869

 For most sensors using freevo idlebar plugin all you do is copy and past
 the section (@ - 73.869) / 0.9528 and let it do its stuff. However for
 some reason to get this to work correctly you need to add the extra *10,
 as I documented:

 ((@ * 10) - 73.869) / 0.9528')

 Just seems a bit weird and inconsistent, I don't know whats going on
 here and why sensors.conf doesn't need the *10 scale but freevo does.

Err, no, don't blame this on the driver, the driver works just fine.
The raw value reported via the sysfs interface is in 'millivolts' and
needs to be adjusted according to the formula in sensors.conf:

jabba:~# echo (`cat /sys/devices/platform/vt1211.24576/temp1_input` /
1000 - 73.869) / 0.9528 | bc
41

The idlebar plugin must be doing something funny.


 And thanks for the driver! Finally with 2.6.21 I have sensors that work,
 I've been worrying about my board as I've squeezed it into a small case,
 now I can rest easy that the temps are in range :D

Assuming you trust the values? :-)

Out of curiosity, what VIA board do you have? Can you control fan
speeds on your board?

Re: [Freevo-users] Perfect motherboard for Freevo (was Re: Freevo box over Compact Flash.)

2006-11-21 Thread Juerg Haefliger
  1) from a review: To be in the vicinity of the ASUS Pundit P1-AH1 when it's
 working under high loads is not a pleasant experience, and it's not
 something that you wish to do for a long time.
 (http://www.nordichardware.com/Reviews/?page=1skrivelse=486)

It's actually not too bad and there's always ways to slow the fan
down. I'm currently twiddling with the BIOS settings to try to make
the fan slower. And I'm trying to get info from ASUS to add support
for hwmon...

  2) where to I put my LCD display?

External via USB?

  I think the HD will be far enough from the capture card but this needs to
 be tested (found that those ultra compact mini-itx cases that put the HD
 practically on top of the PCI extension space give too much interference)

The only issue I've run into so far is with the PCI slots. My
PVR-150MCE didn't fit, it was too tall. I had to shave 2mm off to make
it fit :-)

  The truth is, after 2 years of working with them in large-scale
 commercial deployments, I'm frankly sick of the things. I've long since
 gotten over the Ooh! Tiny! aspect and come to realize that things that
 sit in my AV rack should be roughly AV component shaped, and i can do
 that with a full size ATX motherboard.


  Agreed. My AV-type case is also largely empty. However I am using the
 parallel port for the LCD and a serial port for the IR receiver. It is
 awfully useful that these are internal.

 So I'd guess the next question is now what is the perfect MB for freevo?

 One would need:

 -capable of playing mpeg2,mp3,mpeg4
 -low noise (this also implies low-noise/fanless CPU setup)
 -at least 2 PCI slots
 -TV-out,optionally HD-TV-out
 -good sound
 -good price

 Which MB fits the bill?

 Paul


  The ABIT IL-90MV looks an interesting choice. m-ATX, dual core (479 pin
 for low noise), ATA  SATA with RAID, HDMI, SPDIF in  out, 2 USB2  1
 firewire, 2 x PCI  1 x PCI express. No SD TV out and 3D performance
 wouldn't be great but at the price this looks a bargain. Are there any
 other boards like this or barebone systems with HDMI (I've just got a
 32 with HDMI - hence the interest :) )

[Freevo-users] Mplayer has the hiccups...

2005-10-10 Thread Juerg Haefliger
Hi,

I'm running into this strange problem that I'm not able to solve.
Whenever I watch a certain real video stream via freevo/mplayer the
video stutters and it looks like it's skipping frames every 2 seconds
or so. Audio is fine and CPU usage is around 75%.

Mplayer gets called by Freevo the following way:

app=/usr/bin/mplayer -autosync 100 -nolirc -autoq 100 -screenw 800
-screenh 600 -fs -slave -ao alsa -v -vo xv,sdl,x11 -cache 2048
rtsp://63.236.6.228:554/ondemand/7/1927/11457/v10092005/swissinfo.download.akamai.com/11457/sfdrs/ts/TS_09102005-450k.rm
-vf pp=de, poll=-1

Now the strange thing is if I run exactly the same command outside of
Freevo (with Freevo still running in the back), everything is just
fine and the video runs smoothly.

I also tried to disable audio and bumping mplayers priority (renice to
-20) when running it through Freevo but that didn't make a difference.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Thanks for all your help, I got it working now. There's 2 different
ways to fix it:
1) disable DEBUG (DEBUG=0)
2) patch v4l2.py

 Hi,

 Disable DEBUG in local_conf.py and record something again. With DEBUG
 enabled there is probably some freevo recorserver ioctl which is not
 supported in later ivtv drivers. With DEBUG=0 you can workaround
 this prob.

[Freevo-users] recordserver crash

2005-10-07 Thread Juerg Haefliger
Hello,

I finally managed to get most of my Freevo box working (including
watching TV). But when I try to record a show I get the following
error dump in the recordserver log:
