Re: [Freevo-users] Games in 1.7x

I'm running a 1.7 something version of Freevo and running some games via

Some work and some don't - if you watch very quickly there is a window

Pingus and Crack-Attack are the failures. The files in /etc/freevo/games/
are all set up in an equivalent manner.
Can anyone shed light on this?

I don't know the solution for your problem, but I find the way you launch
games a bit complicated. I keep the shell scripts for launching games with
the correct parameters in one directory, and name them GameName.game. That
way I have only one entry for linux games:
('Linux games', '/data/1/roms/games/pc/',
('GENERIC', '/bin/sh', ' ', '', [ '.game' ] ))

Re: [Freevo-users] Music player stops after starting a menu command
On Monday 01 October 2007 00:13, Francisco Eduardo Álvarez Solano wrote:
Hi again,
I've managed to find a workaround:
1.- Create a fxd file, eg. firefox.fxd:
?xml version=1.0?
freevo
command title=Internet
cmd/home/user/fxd/run.cmd/cmd
info
contentIt is just a test/content
/info
/command
/freevo
Be aware: no stoposd / nor spawnwm / tags.
2.- The fxd file calls a script (/home/user/fxd/run.cmd) that starts the
real application in the background :
#!/bin/sh
/home/user/fxd/firefox.cmd
Don't forget the '' at the end of the second line!
3.- And this is the script that runs firefox and the windowmanager (
/home/user/fxd/firefox.cmd):
#!/bin/sh
icewm
firefox
killall icewm
4.- Finally, insert in local.conf a line like this:
plugin.activate('command.CommandMainMenuItem',
args=('/home/casa/fxd/firefox.fxd', ), level=29)
We need two scripts to make Freevo think the command has finished. The
problem is that you will have Freevo OSD in a window just below firefox. If
you change to this window, Freevo can go fullscreen an you will have to
press 'z' to return to the windowmanager.
With this setup, when you return to Freevo you will have a message window
indicating the command has finished successfully. I think there is a tag to
prevent this window from appearing, but I donn't remember it now.
Hope this dirty trick helps.
Eduardo
Thanks for the tips! I run freevo with no WM, but will still try to work
something out.

I suppose that the mplayer command stops and, as the osd is stopped too, nothing starts another instance of the player with the next song. I'm using mplayer as default player. I wonder if it is possible to avoid this behaviour. Eduardo Same happens to me.

Location codes are correct, as they work on Yahoo website. Any ideas?

I'm not sure that this is working but it should work with the
ROM_DRIVES, eg:
ROM_DRIVES = [

('/mnt/dvdram', '/dev/hdd', 'DVD-RAM')
]
May be some can confirm if this is working or not.

I have to eat my words. After upgradiing to 1.7.3 it works. Kinda.
I have this in my local_config.py:
ROM_DRIVES = [ ('/cdrom', '/dev/scd0', 'DVD') ]
This is fstab:
/dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0
/cdrom is a softlink to /media/cdrom0
It works with some disks. But not with all. I've just inserted CD with mp3s,
