[Freevo-users] What I find funny about the virus is..
That it's for windows and was posted to a list where the project in question is for linux. Mind you, I bet most people on this list use Windows.. I use linux for server stuff but Windows still kicks the crap out of linux on the desktop.

RE: [Freevo-users] What I find funny about the virus is..
Mac OS X looks nice, as long as it isn't such a piece of crap that =9.x is... Before any Mac zealots jump to it saying Mac OS 9 etc is great, I work as an IT Manager in a mixed Linux, Windows Mac environment.. The machines that always give the most hassle are not the Windows machines but the Mac's... Take from that what you will. Not used OS X, we're planning on getting the Mac's onto it once the specialist software we use has been ported to OS X and is decently stable.

[Freevo-users] Kernel patches?
Currently finishing off installing my gentoo system, compiling the kernel at the moment (I have a feeling it won't be the last time I do it for this system). The hardware I have is a Radeon 7000 (for tv output), a wintv 878 based card with a remote control and a a cheapo cmi8738 soundcard. The machine will be used for watching tv, playing dvd's and divx's primarilly. What kernel options/patches should I be using? I've made sure to enable stuff for the most blatantly obvious but there is always something you miss. Are there any required kernel patches for the above hardware so they can be used under freevo? BTW, not wanting to use X, I don't want to wait forever and a day for the thing to compile and if it can be done with the framebuffer then I see no reason to have X on my system.

RE: [Freevo-users] Failing on gentoo
Okay, just created the /usr/local/portage dir and emerge seems to work.. But it wants to emerge kde-base/kde-env-3-r2, x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r2 etc I've got X11, kde etc set as -X, -kde etc in make.conf USE settings... Does freevo absolutely require them? Ie. If I run ' # USE=-X emerge freevo ' will freevo then not work etc?

RE: [Freevo-users] Failing on gentoo
Thanks, but now I need to find a way to stop freevo from wanting qt etc. Even though I do... USE=-X -kde -qt -gnome -gtk emerge -p freevo It still shows X, qt etc in there... I've heard of the time it takes to compile qt and no way in hell do I want to compile that... What does freevo want with qt? This is on a P3 500 btw.

[Freevo-users] Does Freevo require X?
Just curious since I've currently got a gentoo system compiling, its only going to be used for freevo to output to a tv. From what I've read on the freevo website it seems to require it, mostly I'd prefer it not to cos I expect X will take ages to compile.

[Freevo-users] Does anyone use the dxr3 or hollywood plus?
I've had this hollywood plus decoder card for ages and on the Freevo site it mentions you can use one for tv output. Does that mean it can display the freevo ui etc or does it just display decoded mpeg's etc. Kinda curious since it would be nice to use that for tv output instead of buying a graphics card capable of tv output. I have a spare voodoo 3 sitting around but that's vga out only. By my knowledge doesn't it display only the decoded mpeg video only? I wouldn't know since I've never used it with a tv, just ordered a s-video to scart connector for my tv though. :) Thanks Mark --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: INetU Attention Web Developers Consultants: Become An INetU Hosting Partner.

RE: [Freevo-users] Does anyone use the dxr3 or hollywood plus?
Very clever. Some divx's don't play well? Surely encoding it as a mpeg stream in realtime would take up most of the cpu time, even on a p3 800? Gotta hand it to whoever thought of encoding it as a mpeg stream then sending it to the card, very ingenuis. Thanks for the info Mark -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stefan Strandberg Sent: 25 June 2003 22:04 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Freevo-users] Does anyone use the dxr3 or hollywood plus? I am using one in my setup right now. It displays teh menus and everything through the dxr3 (in my case, Hollywood RealMagic+). It is nice, because it fills up the entire TV screen as supposed to leaving black bars which I got with my TNT2 Ultra... The drawback to it is that everything must be converted to mpg to go out to the card, so some stuff doesn't play well on slower CPUs...I have a celery 500 at the moment, and TV was impossible, and some divxs don't play well. I have a pentium 3 800 that I haven't gotten around to putting into the machine yet that will hopefully solve the issues. The other problem is you lose keyboard input while mplayer is running...you need to get a remote control, which is kinda a pain. I don't think there is any way to code around that at all. All you can do with the keyboard is hit Ctrl-C to stop the movie, but it also kills freevo, so in my case I need to blindly hit up, enter to restart it. You could probably get around it by having a bash script that would restart freevo whenever it sensed that it died...You still won't be able to pause/fast forward/anything though... -stefan Mark Casey wrote: I've had this hollywood plus decoder card for ages and on the Freevo site it mentions you can use one for tv output.

[Freevo-users] ATI Rage All In Wonder Pro 8MB?
Currently got my eyes on the above graphics card on ebay, been reading a bit of http://gatos.sourceforge.net/ and from what I can gather support for the card is quite good. However, is there anyone here who uses the card with freevo? How easy is it to get up and running, are there any particular problems with the card? Or should I go for a different card? I want to make sure I don't end up buying it and regretting it. Thanks Mark --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: INetU Attention Web Developers Consultants: Become An INetU Hosting Partner.
