Re: [Freevo-users] tvmixer for sound recording
Hi Mick The module wouldn't load if there was no btaudio card available. Also it doesn't just pass the sound to the soundcard (in fact you don't even need a soundcard to use it) - it provides it's own specific device you can record from. I find it a lot preferable to a pass-thru cable especially for sync issues. Mary, I'm just using the 'aumix' with my bt audio - using the -d flag to specify 'mixer1' which appears when I load the btaudio module: kylie root # aumix -d /dev/mixer1 -q line1 0, 0, P line2 0, 0, P line3 20, 20, R Cheers Paul Mick wrote: Are you sure your card is btaudio capable? btaudio is when the sound is passed via the pci bus tot he sound card.

Re: [Freevo-users] DXR3 pygame.error: No Available video device
Hi John I think you're getting a bit confused with 'games' and 'pygame'. Pygame is a set of python modules that allows you to create games or other SDL display things like menus.

[Freevo-users] Problem with webserver on 1.5-pre1
Hi all
At the weekend I upgraded my freevo setup to 1.5-pre1. It is a Gentoo

1.4.1. Everything works fine (well except for a few funnies because I
haven't got around to installing mmpython 0.4 yet) apart from the
webserver. If I go to the web address I get the following error:

Re: [Freevo-users] Feature suggestion for Webradio
Hi Frederick I think the biggest problem in your example is that you would need to write a different parser for each radio station (and hope that they don't change the format of their 'now playing' part on the website). I guess it would be possible to get the Clip information sent by a radio station when you connect, ie: Clip info: name: BBC Radio 1 author: BBC copyright: (C) British Broadcasting Corporation 2003 This however is not very interesting and not reall worth it given that you could just add this and more into the .fxd file anyway. I guess it could be possible to write a universal parser where you could add a item into the .fxd and it would display the information after the text you add here (ie. print everything on the line after 'Now playing:' on this webpage) but it might be harder for your example where it shows the last 10 songs. I might have a play around next week as I am off work. Cheers Paul Faser wrote: Dear All! Just a quick feature suggestion that came up my mind for the Webradio Plugin!

Re: [Freevo-users] Re: tv-out
Hi Kevin I think you mean 'Am I looking for' and not 'I'm I looking for' hence the confusion over your email? Maybe a bit of proof reading is in order next time ;) The matrox documentation on the freevo website ( http://freevo.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/DocumentationPage_2fMatroxInfo ) gives you the information you need: Here are some basic things you should know before we begin : - TV/Out only works on the SECOND head of your dualhead card. Figure out which is which. That should be easy : connect a monitor to one of the heads and start your computer. If you get output, that's the first head. The second head doesn't have output unless you turn it on in software. So that says to me you need a dual head Matrox card (and the same documentation says a cheaper DH Millenium is ok). If you get a dual head card, make sure you get the tv out cable with it. Paul McIntyre, Kevin wrote:o Again. I'm I looking for a any old G400 or Matrox Marvel G400 TV, dual head, 16mb/32mb.

the same name as the .fxd then it works (as I see you have done).

Re: Look ma, no window manager! [WAS Re: [Freevo-users] freevo worksbut will not play divx video nor mp3's.]
Hi The only 'issue' is that freevo is running as root the way I do it, but I'm not worried about that. The info/link in the wiki tells you how to get around this. As for window problems or mplayer problems, there are none - not even when I used 1.3.1. I'm not sure what you mean by SDL not being able to open more windows without a wm? I thought XFree86 handled this rather than the windows manager. How would my mplayer work on the top of freevo otherwise? Cheers Paul Wan Tat Chee wrote: I think there's some issues with doing it this way. I don't remember if the Wiki section on running Freevo automatically from startup linked to the original article on starting up applications automatically in X, but it has something to do with UID/GID. Also SDL might not like the fact that it cannot create additional windows in X (without a WM) and mplayer won't run (might work if display=xv)? I haven't tried messing with this since the 1.3.1 release, so changes to the freevo display code might have resolved some of these issues. I'm using blackbox WM if I run in X, but nowadays I just use framebuffer mode. --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Etnus, makers of TotalView, The best thread debugger on the planet.
