Re: [Freevo-users] The future of Freevo(.org)
I too will miss Freevo. Unfortunately, one of the functions version 2.0 leaves out, is the primary reason i used Freevo. To capture HD streams out of my cable box, using a Hauppauge HD PVR. Fortunately,I recently bought a new laptop and installed version 1.90. As long as it continues to work, I will use it. Thanks Dirk, for the many hours of work you put into Freevo, as well as everyone else who contributed in some way.

I failed to get a release of Freevo 2 out. I changed too much, a complete rewrite and some parts are also written three or four times. My fault, I know -- an error made years ago and when noticed, it was too late to change it. And since I started a new job four years ago my time working on Freevo got smaller and smaller every month. Jason also is completely busy with his job. I still say Freevo 2 is ready to use, but I will not release it. I'm not sure it works with the latest clutter or gstreamer, I only know it works for me. It lacks many important features such as DVD playback (I have a BluRay Player) and TV recording. I do not need it and I don't have time to code it. Besides that, XBMC has a much bigger community, UPnP is enough for many people (even I use NAS + BubbleUPnP + TV sometimes) and new development such as Chromecast will reduce Freevo's usefulness even further. I will continue to use Freevo 2, I may even write an Android client for it (after learning Python with Freevo which was useful for getting my current job, hacking Android is a good next step), but I see no real future for Freevo without a live community and more people hacking code. If someone contributes something, I will add it. If someone needs help to get Freevo 2 running, I will provide it. Since we also lack someone maintaining the server we host and I do not want to pay for something we don't need, I will shut it down at the end of February. This means the SVN and the Wiki will be gone. If someone wants a backup of the Wiki please tell me. The code is already on github and will remain there. The mailing list on SF will continue and so will the mail server hosting freevo.org and all mail addresses will continue to be valid. Maybe after some time someone resurrects Freevo. I would love to pass the maintainership over to someone just as I took it over from Krister years ago. Maybe someone takes the kaa-stuff and writes something new and better. I'm happy to assist and I think the same is true for Jason. Maybe I will release something someday based on the current code. It was a great time, I learned a lot and it was much fun.

Re: [Freevo-users] livepause
Liz, Just to add to what Adam said for recording, I think the commands I use for recording a stream from my Hauppauge HD PVR will also work for recording on the HD Home Run. I added this to the Freevo wiki for TV-DVB config 2 years ago. By the way, after you start the record server, you'll need to open a second terminal to start Freevo. When you go to schedule a recording, it will say the record server is not on. Ignore the warning and schedule one anyway, it should record. Let us know if you have any luck with this.I use video1, since video0 is my web cam. Here it is VCR_CMD = 'cat/dev/video1 %(filename)s + sleep %(seconds)s ; kill -9 $!' #(or video0) TV_DEVICE = '/dev/video1' #(or video0) TV_INPUT = 1 #(or 0) TV_REC_SIZE = (1920, 1080) TV_RECORD_FILE_SUFFIX = '.mpg' DEBUG = 5 DEBUG_CHILDAPP = 1 - Original Message - From: Liz ed...@billiau.net To: freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net Cc: Sent: Sunday, March 25, 2012 1:30 AM Subject: Re: [Freevo-users] livepause On Sun, 25 Mar 2012 16:53:08 +1100 Liz ed...@billiau.net wrote: On Sun, 25 Mar 2012 14:46:50 +1100 Liz ed...@billiau.net wrote: On Tue, 28 Feb 2012 19:55:20 + Adam Charrett a...@dvbstreamer.org wrote: The livepause plugin has support for HDHomerun (although there may be a few bugs).

Re: [Freevo-users] stop 'tearing' in AMD Radeon HD 6410D?
Sorry, I need to slow down my thought process when reading. Obviously, the amdcccle tool is the Catalyst Control. The only other idea i can suggest is to use the vlc plugin.

Re: [Freevo-users] The future of Freevo 2.0
Hi James, Glad to see I'm not the only freevo user interested in capturing streams in a more user friendly way. Just as a sidebar to my previous email posted here a week ago, the Hauppauge HD PVR converts analog component HD video from a cable or satellite box to h.264 MP4 in a .m2ts container up to 1080i.From this device, a parser isn't needed and because it's taking analog component out from the box, it's not effected by any encryption, not even premium channels. A simple usb 2.0 cable passes the stream from the HD PVR to the computer where Freevo records it. A parser is still a great idea for those taking firewire out from a cable box. The downside to that is it will only pass unencrypted channels from the box. I might be the only Freevo user using this method of recording, but it's worked like a charm for nearly 2 years and I have a library of HD movies and concerts to show for it. I don't use Freevo to playback, since I a have a Boxee Box connected to my home network for playback to my TV. However, I can play anything it has recorded from Freevo on my computer using VLC, so I think i a VLC plugin for Freevo 2.0 would be useful for playback through Freevo. Phil Original Message - From: James Trietsch kero...@yahoo.com To: freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net Cc: Sent: Tuesday, July 26, 2011 6:04 PM Subject: Re: [Freevo-users] The future of Freevo 2.0 I thought I'd chime in here too. I admit I haven't even tried any other HTPC packages out there. I went with Freevo from the start and have been using it ever since, from it's humble beginnings (in my hands) playing back video and audio in a beige box tower, to the TV-tuning, cable box controlling, radio streaming, podcast-playing powerhouse that it is now (and in a nice Antec HTPC case, too). I do like the customization and plug-in architecture. It allows me to put in just the idlebar stuff I want, or if I'm not playing games I can take that out completely. I will admit I feel you need to be more knowledgeable to do the configuration... wading through the local_config file can be daunting at times. It will be nice when it's eventually an easy to use system of menus (either on-screen or via web). And speaking of web, love the web interface. I use it almost exclusively for scheduling and keeping tabs on programs. Just last week I was over 100 miles from home when I realized I'd forgotten to set a recording for the Formula One race. All I had to do was whip out my phone, call up the web page and set the recording. Piece of cake! But the number one reason I love Freevo is because Python is not a terribly hard language to learn. If Freevo had been written in C/C++, I might have gotten enough motivation to contribute. But with it being in Python, it was easy to jump in and start twiddling and tweaking and see the results immediately, without any recompiling. The barrier to entry for anyone who wants to contribute or even just modify their local version is a lot lower, in my opinion. And that is good! As for the future of it, I'm eager to see Freevo 2.0. Just listening to everyone talk about the plans in these last few e-mails has gotten me excited all over again. I don't know how much I can contribute just yet, but a few things sparked my interest: * Streaming source - I don't know if I can help make it happen, but I vote for it. I haven't been dabbling in the direct-over-firewire recording I was working on before, mostly because I don't have the grunt to play back anything more than SD resolution and haven't found a good re-encoding solution/setting for what is recorded in HD. I should dust it off and give it some more work. But this leads me to... * M2TS parser - Obviously goes hand-in-hand with the above, since the output from the cable box is a raw MPeg2 TS stream. I'd be willing to give it a look and see if I can make heads-or-tails out of the spec and how to adapt it to the metadata parser. I wouldn't count on me for this... but if I get some spare time I'd give it a try. I had a few other issues with the direct-recording... but that's a discussion for another thread.

Re: [Freevo-users] The future of Freevo 2.0
Will 2.0 offer an option to capture streams from devices like the Hauppauge hd pvr, without selecting a channel to record? By that, I mean for example, using the word stream in tv channels in the local conf and Freevo would know it's looking for a stream instead of a channel.

I have been thinking about the future of Freevo 2.0 and need all your help to get it going somehow. I tried XBMC some days ago and while it looks very nice, it forces me to organize my media collection in a way I don't want to and has some usability issues (IMHO). Therefore, I still need Freevo. :) The main problem with Freevo 2.0 is my and Jason's lack of time the last year. Development was not only slow, it wasn't existant. I now have one Freevo-hacking day in my calender each week which may be dropped if the weather is too good but it is there and I plan to use it. There are some minor issues I will fix no matter what happens. But I do not have the time to finish Freevo 2.0 to make it look and feel like I want. If you want to help in any way, please answer to this mail and we can discuss it. If you need help to start (like kaa.base help), feel free to ask. Jason and I can both answer your questions. Jason: I assign your name to some smaller stuff here, I hope it is OK. ;) Freevo Core: 1. kaa.base is done and has all the cool stuff I want. If there is a bug, Jason and I will take care of it. But it shouldn't be much. 2. kaa.metadata is also done. Maybe add or change a parser, but that is not important right now. Patches are always welcome. 3. kaa.imlib2 is also working as it should and it does not play a big role in the Freevo 2.0 core. 4. The Freevo core directory is also mostly done. There are some minor bugs in the playlist stuff but it should be easy to fix. The menu reload also has some problems I need to investigate. To summarize: the core is mostly done and the remaining points are on my TODO list and I will fix them. Now the bigger problems: GUI. The clutter-based GUI can do nice stuff but needs some more work. 5. kaa.candy has the basics, but may need some nice effects like mirror-effect, better animations, etc. It has everything we need to make Freevo 2.0 work but it could be nicer. If you know C (Python not needed) and want to play with clutter or if you now Python and want to dive into kaa.candy, drop me a note. You only need to know kaa.base and clutter as dependency. 6. XBMC looks s cool. The big background images, the animations. Nice! We do have the code in Freevo 2.0 to do the same (even support to grab TV show or movie specific wallpapers and images). I need help from a designer to make look Freevo even better. Can someone make a fake screenshot how Freevo should look like? Can someone provide nice wallpapers (CC licence)? This is one of the things I can not do myself. The GUI stuff needs help from you. C programmers, Python programmers and artists. Or if you cannot help with that, tell us what you want to have. Let's dive into the media plugins: 7. kaa.beacon is mostly done. I have some minor things on my list I will do the next weeks. The big problem is a better network support. Jason: we talked about distributed beacon servers. Do you still plan to do this? Do you still have time for it? 8. kaa.popcorn (or video player) needs clutter support to write on a texture. This would enable us to draw on top of the video and put it on the background. Again: help needed here. we could either put the mplayer output on a texture or use gstreamer. Jason played with the first option but the code is not finished yet. Jason: do you think you can finish it? Others: do you want to help here? You need to understand kaa.base and kaa.popcorn (which you could change to your needs). Besides that, mplayer and/or gstreamer. The mplayer integration would also require C and clutter knowledge. The gstreamer integration needs pygstreamer. And we need to figure out how to integrate it with kaa.candy and the Freevo core. That would be my task. 9. The image viewer could look nicer. If you want to help on this smaller part of Freevo, feel free to tell me. 10. I have no time to work on TV support. I need help on working on the TV server, the TV devices (e.g. dvbstreamer), the EPG, etc. This is one of the major tasks I want to assign a new maintainer. And something different: 11. There is not webserver for Freevo 2.0. Anyone willing to take over this part? You have complete control what you want to do. I guess you have to know your HTML/CSS/JS-fu. 12. Android / iPhone support? Not needed but nice to have 13. Port plugins from Freevo 1.9 to 2.0 And last but not least: 14.

Re: [Freevo-users] Rebuilding again my freevobox...
I use the Hauppauge HD PVR, which captures HD from the cable box using component cables, then converts it to h.264 AVCHD in a .mpg container. I posted a local_conf example in the Freevo wiki, it's just a simple stream dump, since this is a hardware encoder. Component out from an SD box would work, albeit not HD. It is a bit expensive, Amazon has it for $204 U.S., it lists for $249. The beauty of this device is that it will record anything from your cable box, even premium movie channels and on-demand content. - Original Message From: Pascal Schirrmann schir...@schirrms.net To: freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net Sent: Sun, October 11, 2009 7:17:49 AM Subject: [Freevo-users] Rebuilding again my freevobox... Hi, As usual (!), I'm (trying to) rebuild(ing) my freevobox. The trouble with my current freevobox is the temp : Outside tv TV closet, everything is OK, but at the normal place (at least in my wife feeling), the system receives simply not enough fresh air. The trouble is greatly related to the PVR-150 card, witch is a good heat generator ! So I'm trying to use an USB capture device. I don't need a TV tuner, as the box need to record also TV show from the cable decoder, so I can (and will probably) forget the tuner part, and better use an IR blaster to drive the decoder. For the IR Blaster, I think to use this one, recommended on mythtv wiki : http://www.commandir.com/content/view/19/31/ But I'm not able to find a non expansive video encoder, supported by Linux. I am pretty sure thet the Hauppauge PVR USB2 device would do the trick, but this one is not exactly non expensive ! At this time, I'm still searching an SD solution, our living room TV -and calbe decoder- is still a CRT model, but if a solution can be 'HD ready', it could be interresting. Also, the power is here to to a software encoding, but if I can havez a decent hardware encoding, I could also slow down the processor. What do you use, or know ?

Hi, I'm a quite happy freevo user for years. I think it's great and works quite well. I can't wait for freevo 2 to be out. For about 9 months I have had a PVR 150 IVTV based card in this box and never used it. Starting mplayer on the card and useing v4l2-ctl to set the frequencies worked like a charm though, so I know the card is in order. I however cannot get this thing to work in freevo. I wouldn't even need any of the fancy recording stuff, simply watching TV would be perfect just to get started.Timeshifting after and maybe scheduled recordings someday .., but just watching plain tv I can't even manage to work out. First off, I am using http://home.tiscali.nl/~lteunissen/tv_grab_nl_C/ to generate an XMLtv file which looks more or less like this: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=ISO-8859-1? !DOCTYPE tv SYSTEM xmltv.dtd tv generator-info-name=tv_grab_nl_C 0.02.15 generator-info-url=http://home.tiscali.nl/~lteunissen/tv_grab_nl_C; channel id=1.tvgids.nl display-name lang=nlNederland 1/display-name icon src=http://www.lyngsat-logo.com/hires/nn/nederland1.png; / /channel /* Cut some channels*/ programme start=2009101007 +0200 stop=2009101011 +0200 channel=7.tvgids.nl title lang=nlBreakfast/title desc lang=nlMet om 7.25, 7.55 en daarna elk half uur regionaal nieuws. /desc categoryInformatief/category video aspect16:9/aspect /video /programme /* cut some programme's */ /tv this format I belive is the normal XML format for xmltv. However, when going inside freevo into Watch TV - TV Guide, freevo spits out the following error. TV Guide is Corrupt. Which I doubt, but ok. The console gives me the following error. Freevo 1.9.0 ready Couldn't load the TV Guide, got an exception!

Re: [Freevo-users] Newbie: Problem with HD channel names
You need to add dvbstreamer (http://sourceforge.net/projects/dvbstreamer/) to Freevo as a plugin and then use it to scan for the channels in your area. The command in terminal is setupdvbstreamer -A channels.conf. Next run this commmand, dvbctrl lsservices -- -id| grep -v ^... This will capture the channels available. Next, copy and paste your channel list to your local_conf.py.Here's my list as an example of what it should look like.

Re: [Freevo-users] Configuring HD PVR with Freevo 1.90
Well Evan I finally found a command that stops the HDPVR recording. I got rid of the VCR_POST_REC command in my local conf and instead, I added a string of commands to the VCR_CMD. Here's what the local conf now looks like CONFIG_VERSION = 5.27 TV_RECORD_DIR = '/home/tvphil/Videos' TV_CHANNELS = 'Comcast','Comcast','NA3' VCR_CMD = 'cat /dev/video1 %(filename)s + sleep %(seconds)s ; kill -9 $!' TV_DEVICE = '/dev/video1' TV_INPUT = 1 TV_REC_SIZE = (1920, 1080) TV_RECORD_FILE_SUFFIX = '.mpg' DEBUG = 5 DEBUG_CHILDAPP = 1 I think this would also be a good addition to the wiki, for anyone else who wants to use this device for recording with Freevo.As you may have noticed the NA3 at the end of the TV_Channels, that's to keep the recordserver to stop telling me it has no conf for US cable channels. For anyone else reading this, this device is the Hauppauge HD PVR, model 1212. --- On Tue, 6/9/09, Evan Hisey ehi...@gmail.com wrote: From: Evan Hisey ehi...@gmail.com Subject: Re: [Freevo-users] Configuring HD PVR with Freevo 1.90 To: freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net Date: Tuesday, June 9, 2009, 12:05 PM On Tue, Jun 9, 2009 at 9:25 AM, Phil Raymondtvp...@yahoo.com wrote: Maybe I'm not looking at the right output, but the only error message I can post, is the same one I posted before, but I included what follows, which proves Freevo thinks it has stopped the recording, when it hasn't. here is the most recent one 2009-06-08 21:40:02,278 WARNING recordserver.py (1043): event=OS_EVENT_POPEN2 arg=(util.popen3.child_handler instance at 0x2970ab8, 'cat /dev/video1 -c') not handled 2009-06-08 21:40:45,002 INFO recordserver.py (970): found a program to clean: Mon Jun 08 21:37-21:40 (18:00) N Fox News 2009-06-08 21:41:31,262 INFO recordserver.py (1490): main() finished Let me know what you think is going on and how to correct it.

I added VCR_CMD = /dev/video1 and only got errors. This is in fact where dmesg show the HDPVR coming through, /dev/video0 is the built in webcam.I still believe this problem is tied to the Freevo recordserver needing a channel conf. in order to start. The channel conf is telling Freevo to record from a channel that doesn't exist with this device. If I remove the channel conf or try to trick it with a false entry, it simply won't start. So, I'm stuck with a Catch 22 situation. VCR_CMD doesn't seem to work as a workaround for this problem. I've tried over a dozen different hacks to the local_conf.py and no luck so far. If you can think of any other commands or a way to get Freevo to record without a channel conf, I'd love to know.For now, I'll just stick with using the cat /dev/video1(filename) command to record.

Re: [Freevo-users] Anyone got a TViX (custom hardware media centre)?
This actually plays both mkv h.264 and avchd h.264, which is usually contained in a mpeg.ts wrapper. If I had this, I think I would use it as a means of decoding HD content recorded by the new Hauppauge hd pvr (which encodes avchd h.264) connected to another box running Freevo. Then you could either use it as a network media player or with a hard drive inside, store what is recorded on the other box.Its only downside is its price.With a 750 GB hard drive, the TVIX runs about $560 U.S.Add another $250 for the Hauppauge unit and you're over $800.A TVIX with no hard drive would bring the total down to about $650. - Original Message From: Jason Tackaberry [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net Sent: Friday, July 11, 2008 11:59:35 AM Subject: Re: [Freevo-users] Anyone got a TViX (custom hardware media centre)?

Re: [Freevo-users] Issues with latest Ubuntu 7.10 Packages
I also use Ubuntu Gutsy 64 bit version and I have Freevo 1.75 installed from source. I have never had luck getting Freevo to work from the Ubuntu repository run by Geole, so I would suggest using Synaptic to get rid of what you have installed now and download and install the same version from Freevo's website , using the the source code tarballs for Freevo and the 3 Kaa support modules.They're really easy to install. Just remember it's all Python code, so when you install, cd to your home directory and then python setup.py install, instead of the more common ./configure,make, make install.This applies to Freevo and the Kaa modules.Then configure Freevo as you would have normally. - Original Message From: Andrew Berry [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net Sent: Tuesday, March 18, 2008 12:41:34 AMhii Subject: [Freevo-users] Issues with latest Ubuntu 7.10 Packages Hi, A few issues with upgrading to the 1.8.0rc2 release that's within the ubuntu repository.

Re: [Freevo-users] DVB Channel Detection
/root/documents/freevo/live.buf has been created, that's why I moved it from the tmp folder. Freevo for whatever reason, isn't finding it. This one problem is turning out to be the biggest hang up. I even tried renaming it to drop the .buf at the end, same result. - Original Message From: Jonathan Isom [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2008 11:13:22 PM Subject: Re: [Freevo-users] DVB Channel Detection On Jan 15, 2008 11:07 PM, Phil Raymond [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm only using one card.

I did after the last email I sent, after searching more info and that did get rid of the error message. My only question now is, where is the channel list it generated? It didn't show up in the terminal like it did when I ran dtvscan.If I can find that and copy the id string to my local conf, I think Freevo might record. I'm still seeing the error when I start Freevo about the lack of /tmp/freevo/live.buf file. I did create it, but because it's in the tmp folder, it keeps getting purged after every shutdown.

I took a guess at the .dvbstreamer hidden folder and also dvbstreamer's main folder, neither worked. - Original Message From: Jonathan Isom [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net Sent: Monday, January 14, 2008 10:38:30 PM Subject: Re: [Freevo-users] DVB Channel Detection did the channels.conf file you fed into setupdvbstreamer resemble CHANNEL 02:57028615:8VSB:49:52:3 CHANNEL 03:63028615:8VSB:49:52:3 CHANNEL 04:69028615:8VSB:49:52:3 CHANNEL 05:79028615:8VSB:49:52:3 CHANNEL 06:85028615:8VSB:49:52:3 CHANNEL 07:177028615:8VSB:49:52:3 if not try the attached channels.conf to feed in with setupdvbstreamer -A channels.conf this will cause dvbstreamer to look at all atsc channels. then run dvbctrl lsservices -- -id| grep -v ^.. the grep filters out the channels with nothing on them Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!

I'm running Freevo on Ubuntu Gutsy, I've also tried using dvbtune, but haven't had any luck with it either. If anyone has had luck scanning for atsc u.s. over-the-air channels, please tell me how. I also have configured the dvbstreamer plugin for Freevo correctly. I recall reading somewhere on the Freevo site that this plugin could be used for scanning as well, but I couldn't find any information on how to do this.If this is possible, I'm guessing this would be the best way to scan.Finally, if anyone could post a copy their local_conf.py for atsc tv channels, that would be a big help too.

Re: [Freevo-users] Freevo and HVR-950?
Here's a link to an online article about this subject, albeit from a Myth user. The instructions at the end for installing the drivers for Ubuntu Feisty and Edgy and Fedora Core could probably be edited a bit to suit any other distro. As for configuring for Freevo, you'll need the tv.generic.record plug-in, as this Hauppauge uses an experimental V4l dvb driver for an Empia chipset, not ivtv. For channel selection, I think Freevo can get the DTV (ATSC) channels, but I'm not sure if it can tune to the DTV-non-hd-sub-channels, like 53.2, 53.3, etc. Here's the link to that page http://lunapark6.com/usb-hdtv-tuner-stick-for-windows-linux-hauppauge-wintv-hvr-950.html?cp=2 Phil --- Brett Granger [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Has anybody tried using the HVR-950 USB hybrid tuner to try to watch/record ATSC channels?

Well no, because they're both python, so to install from source after downloading and extracting the tarball.You would then cd either twisted or twisted web to your home folder in a terminal then in the same terminal type the words python setup.py install, then hit enter. This is the installation command for any python app.Configure, make, make install doesn't work.After doing this, I installed Freevo from source using the same method, rather than using a deb package.If you do it this way, then if you upgrade next month to ubuntu gutsy, nothing should change in Freevo, because you installed from source. --- Markus Klein [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanx for the response.

Possible with the VCR_PRE and POST commands and calling the ivtv control tool (v4l2-ctl) Duncan Here is my local_conf relevant part: VIDEO_GROUPS_ = [ VideoGroup(vdev='/dev/video0', adev=None, input_type='tuner', input_num=0, tuner_norm='pal', tuner_chanlist='us-cable', desc='Cable', group_type='ivtv', record_group=0), VideoGroup(vdev='/dev/video0', adev='/dev/adsp', input_type='external', input_num=1, tuner_norm='pal', desc='Composite', group_type='ivtv', record_group=0) ] TV_CHANNELS_ = [ ('composite', 'Composite', '1', 0, 1), ( TF11.kazer.org http://TF11.kazer.org, TF1, ), ] Here is the error log: Video Opened at /dev/video0 {} Traceback (most recent call last): File /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/freevo/main.py, line 288, in eventhandler app.eventhandler (event) File /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/freevo/menu.py, line 495, in eventhandler if not isinstance(menu, Menu) and menu.eventhandler(event): File /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/freevo/tv/tvguide.py, line 244, in eventhandler self.player ('tv', self.selected.channel_id) File /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/freevo/tv/tvmenu.py, line 85, in start_tv plugin.getbyname(plugin.TV).Play(mode, tuner_id) File /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/freevo/tv/plugins/ivtv_xine_tv.py, line 180, in Play self.tuner.SetChannel(channel, True) File /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/freevo/tv/plugins/ivtv_xine_tv.py, line 419, in SetChannel self.TuneChannelByIndex(channel_index + 1) File /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/freevo/tv/plugins/ivtv_xine_tv.py, line 430, in TuneChannelByIndex self.SetVideoGroup(next_channel) File /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/freevo/tv/plugins/ivtv_xine_tv.py, line 474, in SetVideoGroup ivtv_dev.init_settings() File /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/freevo/tv/ivtv.py, line 358, in init_settings self.setfmt (int(width), int(height)) File /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/freevo/tv/v4l2.py, line 361, in setfmt r = fcntl.ioctl(self.device, i32(SET_FMT_NO), val) IOError: [Errno 22] Argument invalide -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFG32j2Ni6l+Xvys44RAlBZAKCZboCu/1VJhq1AacHEiZkR67TYyQCcCkA8 V5LDZZflzsHabWTQsxEMJ+s= =ZwWj -END PGP SIGNATURE- - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.

Re: [Freevo-users] recordserver and ubuntu feisty [solved]
Dear Duncan I tried Tom's method to get the recordserver going in Ubuntu Feisty (I had the same problem) and I did succeed in getting the recordserver to come up. But I also get a strange error message in terminal after I start the recordserver, it says /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/twisted/web/http.py:40: RuntimeWarning: Python C API version mismatch for module _c_urlarg: This Python has API version 1013, module _c_urlarg has version 1012. from twisted.protocols._c_urlarg import unquote After this, I start Freevo and it starts, but with this error message freevo: could not connect to socket freevo: No such file or directory I can program a recording,but nothing will record. I have the same ivtv drivers and configuration in local_conf.py that I used successfully before in version 1.6.2, so it can't be that. Any ides on what's wrong and how to fix it? I already reinstalled Freevo since this and the same thing happens.

Yes, you need to use Twisted-2.4, I suspect that Twisted-2.5 is being installed.

The solution is not the best but ... here is : install freevo1.7 with apt and all the dependances python-twisted , etc ... then upload this file : wget http://perso.wanadoo.fr/tomlohave/linux/python-twisted-2.4.tar.gz (it is python twisted and all taken from a pc under edgy) unpack this archive in your home (or whatever you want) go to /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages : cd /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages sudo mv twisted twisted-origin sudo ln -s /home/yourlogin/python/twisted twisted with this small change, all is perfect and the recordserver is functionnal. But it's not an elegant solution. Can the maintainer look at the package ? i hope this can help someone :) I think that you can also: sudo mv twisted twisted-2.5 cd /path/to/unpacked/twisted-2.4.0/package cd ZopeInterface-3.1.0c1 sudo python setup.py install cd ../TwistedCore-2.4.0 sudo python setup.py install cd .. sudo python setup.py install This is that standard way to install python packages. But if your happy then stick with your solution. Duncan - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
