[Freevo-users] Re: how to test/debug problem with wakeup/shutdown plugin in my box?
Hallo Claudio, sorry for my late answer, I must have overlooked your question and deleted your original mail already. I just found it by chance while I was looking through the archive for something else. Probably it is too late, and you already solved your problems (hopefully ;-)) Just in case, you are still waiting for an answer: You can test, if wake-up via acpi is working by the following: 1.) Set the wake-up time by echo "2006-01-21 14:00:10" >/proc/acpi/alarm Change the time to the planned wake-up time. (Usually the date part is ignored, and only the clock part is important.) 2.) Check in the bios that your box is configured to wake-up on alarm 3.) Shutdown and see, if it wakes up at the configured time If you have more questions, just ask! Hopefully I can help. I promise to have a close look on the mailing list the next days. Gruesse Tanja __ Verschicken Sie romantische, coole und witzige Bilder per SMS!

Re: [Freevo-users] video, xine and mplayer
Hi > > I'm currently using freevo with mplayer to see all my videos, but I'd like to > use xine as dvd player, and only as dvd player. However, the plugin for > videos refers to all kind of videos. Is there any way to do what I want? > mplayer lacks good menu support, this is the only reason I prefer xine for > dvd. In your local_conf.py there are two lists VIDEO_MPLAYER_SUFFIX and VIDEA_XINE_SUFFIX where you can define, what kind of files should be played by which player. If some kind of video is in both lists, then it will be played by your VIDEO_PREFERED_PLAYER. (Also configured in local_conf.py) I guess the right thing for DVD would be '.vob' or something similar...

Re: [Freevo-users] Hints on using DVB-T
Hi there, we are using dvb-t for almost a year now, and it is working great. so maybe I can give you a few useful hints. As you managed to watch TV with xine, the difficult part is already done. That means you have a valid channel.conf in .xine (.mplayer). For freevo integration: 1.) Put the following in your local_conf.py VIDEO_GROUPS[0].group_type = 'dvb' 2.)TV_CHANNELS is not really different from analog TV, I guess. Something like: TV_CHANNELS = [ ( 'ard.de', 'ARD', 'ARD' ), ( 'zdf.de', 'ZDF', 'ZDF' ), ( 'wdr.de','WDR','WDR')] 3.)EPG: Unfortunately there is no programm for fetching the dvb-epg. And with a budget dvb-card without mpeg-decoder you can not use next-epg, as far as I know. (Please tell me, if that is not right anymore!) But "tv_grab_de_tvtoday" is working! You must use the cvs version, because tvtoday changed there interface a week or so ago, so that the older grabber is not working anymore. 4.) Recording: We are just dumping the dvb-stream to disk without any reencoding, because our hardware is not very fast, but we have lots of disc-space. We watch most of the recordings soon after the recording, and delete them afterwards. Our recording command is: VCR_CMD = CONF.mplayer + ' -dumpstream -dumpfile %(filename)s "dvb://%(channel)s"' TV_RECORDFILE_SUFFIX = '.ts' recording command is: Files are around 1GB for 1 hour recording. NOTE: You will need to copy your channel.conf to .mplayer for this to work. 5.) Watching recorded shows: You must add 'ts' to the list of filename suffixes that should be played with xine/mplayer: VIDEO_XINE_SUFFIX = [ 'ts','avi','vob','mpg','mpeg','rm', 'divx', 'ogm'] Greetings Tanja freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net schrieb am 10.08.05 11:19:35: > > Hi, > > i recently had to switch to DVB-T.

For TV we use a Nova-T Dvb-t card. Our Dvb-t signal is very good, because we can use an old antenna on the roof of our house. The whole system and freevo works very good. Recording is no problem (mplayer -dumpsteam). Watching recorded streams is also no problem, even while a recording is going on. Only when a recording starts or stops, then there is some jerking for a minute. But this is not in the recorded stream! It just happens while watching. We do not use "Live Tv" because the time the Dvb-t card needs for tuning is too long, so zapping is no fun with such a card. But we got used to recording everything we might want to watch (disk space is cheap) and watch it whenever we want. This is a very convenient way!

The wakeup plugin should boot your pc a few minutes (depends on BOOTTIME_PADDING) before the next recording starts, that includes the TV_RECORD_PADDING! So if the show start at 3.00 am, it will start a few minutes before 2:45 am. But in the case you descibed in your mail, there would/should not be a shutdown between the two shows.

why we were wanting this feature,
afterall we are just poor students :-)
BTW, there will be a similar feature in freevo2.0.

Re: [Freevo-users] Re: new plugin for freevo1.5.3: automatic shutdown and wakeup
Hi Jacques, Here is a new version of the plugin. For me that seems to work... at least it works with the image slideshow screensaver. I had some problems to activate freevoscreensaver, everyone of the possible methodes crashes. With some hacking I got the image slideshow screensaver to work. What screensaver are you using? Did you also experience any problems? It would be nice, if you could test the new version and give me a feedback. Hope everything is now working!

I had similar problems with my first version, but this version is now working

Very strange!
Maybe this is a better solution:
if not os.system('egrep "(%s)" /tmp/wakeupshutdown.ps' % searchstring):
instead of:
if not reasons=='0'
Please let me know, if that is working. so that I can change the version for
download.

Re: [Freevo-users] Re: new plugin for freevo1.5.3: automatic shutdown and wakeup
Hi Jacques, ARG, I was afraid of that. I am not using the screensaver, but I had the feeling that there could be problems with that. Probably the idletimer is not polled while the screensaver is running, because it is only polled, when the menus are shown. For now you could deactivate the saver, it should work then. But I will try to find a way around that. Anyhow, thanks a lot for your feedback!

Hi Don,
So now it is working, and you do not have that trace again?
Did you look through the local_conf.py file, you are using now?
Maybe there are more things you want to change.
The example file comes with everything marked with a #, and then
you have to see for yourself what variables you need and remove the #
whereever it is needed for your setup...
For satelite tv, what kind of input are you going to use?
An analog satelite card, (I do not know if there exists such a thing, but who
knows)?
If yes, have a look at the section about analog tv in the wiki!
An digital satelite card, DVB-S?
Have a look at the DVB part of the wiki!
A settop box (receiver)?
Probably you use this with a analog card as input device, so have a look at the
section about
analog tv in the wiki, but maybe also the section about external tuners can be
a help for you.
Some thoughts to your new trace:
>The following is what happens with clicking on 'Watch TV' from the main menu
Probably because the tv part is not yet configured correctly
>You are using version 5.13, changes since then:
>Version 5.14:
>Add IMAGEVIEWER_DURATION for auto slideshows
You can add this variable to your local_conf.py if you like, but this is just a
warning, nothing serious...
>Error: VIDEO_SHOW_DATA_DIR not found
Not a problem, I think...
>ROM_DRIVES: Auto-detected and added "('/mnt/cdrom', '/dev/hdc', 'CD-1')"
>ROM_DRIVES: Auto-detected and added "('/mnt/cdrom2', '/dev/hdd', 'CD-2')"
This is working as it should
>WARNING: Could not initialize PyLirc!
So your are not using lirc (for a remote).
>To search for covers you need an Amazon.com Web Services
>icense key. You can get yours from:
Do you want to use this plugins?
If not just deactivate it by deleting the corresponding lines in your
local_conf.py.
If yes, have a look at the documentation for it!
But this is also not what leads to your problem...
The trace itself seems to be the result of an uncorrect configuration of the tv
stuff.
Hope this all helps you a little bit!

Re: [Freevo-users] need help installing freevo
Hi
what did you set as TV_RECORD_DIR in your local_conf.py?
Should be the place, where you want to save your recordings,
something like:
TV_RECORD_DIR = '/home/freevo/tv'
replace the above with your chosen directory.
What about VIDEO_ITEMS?
Here you can give a list of several dirs or just one:
VIDEO_ITEMS = [('Movies','/home/freevo/movies'),('Shows','/home/freevo/shows')]
or just:
VIDEO_ITEMS = [('Movies','/home/freevo/movies')]
again change this to your likings.
>From your trace I would guess, that you did not set these two.
Then freevo tries to set the TV_RECORD_DIR to the first directory in
VIDEO_ITEMS,
which is also empty...
Just a guess.

[Freevo-users] new plugin for freevo1.5.3: automatic shutdown and wakeup
Hi there, with the help of the work of Hans Meine and Georg Künzel, I managed to create a addon for automatc shutdown and reboot of freevo. The addon provides a improved shutdown plugin as a replacement of the original shutdown plugin. At every shutdown it programs the system for a wakeup at the start time of the next scheduled recording. At the moment two different wakeup methodes are supported: acpi and nvram Moreover this package also contains a second plugin named wakeupschedule.timer, which shuts down the system automatically after a certain time of idleness. For more information have a look at the README! The setup should be easy... We tested this plugin with acpi as wakeup methode for a week now, and did not find any problems so far. I copied and pasted many things from Hans Meine's work, so I hope the nvram part is also still working... Any comments are welcomed!

Re: [Freevo-users] (111, 'Connection refused')
Hi the message "111, Connection refused" means that there is no freevo recordserver running. But I think you do not need the recordserver for watching TV. My guess is that this message is not your problem... For a try you could start the recordserver with "freevo recordserver", then the message should disappear. But if I am right, then this is not connected to your problem. Try turning on more debug by putting the following in your local_conf.py: DEBUG = 1 CHILDAPP_DEBUG = 1 Maybe you find a hint then. Probably your setup is not correct, unfortunately I cannot help you there, because I am using completly different hardware.

Re: [Freevo-users] nvram-wakeup integration status ?
Hi Georg, I am playing around with your script at the moment... I am not sure yet, but there might be a problem with taking the wakeup time from /var/cache/freevo/upsoon. It seems as if this file is only updated, when a user opens the TV-Guide inside of freevo. That would mean: 1.) It is not updated, when one has run "freevo schedulefavorites" 2.) If you leave your freevo box unattended for a few days, things from the "This Week" part of upsoon, never will become "Today" or "Tomorrow", and thus freevo won't wake up for them Maybe my assumptions are wrong here, I will investigate this more. Any comments? Regards Tanja __ Verschicken Sie romantische, coole und witzige Bilder per SMS!

RE: [Freevo-users] Problem with MPlayer failing to play media
Hi You do not need gmplayer, mplayer is enough! I also use MPlayer1.0pre6 on a debian system, no problems here... You can get more debug information if you set the following in your local_conf.py DEBUG = 1 CHILDAPP_DEBUG = 1 Maybe you find a hint there. Moreover you can find the exact line which freevo uses to start mplayer with all options in the debug output. Try that command from a shell. Maybe it is one of the options freevo uses, that is responsible for your problems...

In local_conf.py the following variables might be interesting for you: DIRECTORY_CREATE_PLAYLIST=['image', 'audio'] DIRECTORY_ADD_PLAYLIST = [] DIRECTORY_ADD_RANDOM_PLAYLIST = [] just put 'image' in the list, if you want to have the particular variable be active for images. The first one creates a playlist from all items in the dir. You can start this playlist by selecting one image, pressing NEXT will change to the next image. You can also reach this by pressing e, there should be appropriate entries in that menu then. The other to variables create an extra item in every image dir, to start the playlists. Other variable that might be interesting for you, are: IMAGEVIEWER_BLEND_MODE = 1 IMAGEVIEWER_DURATION=2 Without setting image duration, the slideshow will only continue when you press NEXT. Hope that was what you were looking for.

Did you figure out how to set up the TV_CHANNEL part in local_conf.py? It is supposed to be like this: TV_CHANNELS = [ ( 'XMLTV_ChannelName', 'Freevos_DisplayName', 'Mplayers_ChannelName' )] "Mplayer_ChannelName" is the name of the channel as it is used in your channel.conf for mplayer. (This asumed that you want to use mplayer as tv application.) What kind of TV card do you have by the way, dvb or some analog one? You can turn on more debug information by DEBUG=1 in your local_conf.py. After that you should see in the shell the full command line that freevo uses to call mplayer, maybe you find a hint there > > What is "the right plugin?" Can I download that from somewhere?

I figure from local_conf.py that I > can activate and deactivate plugins, I just don't know what plugin is > required to view tv ... seems kinda weird that I need to enable a plugin to > view TV on an application that is designed to view tv ... Actually this is a misunderstanding, freevo is not designed to watch TV. (In my opinion "Real-Time TV" is even one of its weakest points.) It is a controlling frontend for all kinds of media applications. You can use it to watch movies (various formats), listen to music (also various formats), record TV, watch TV and much more. It is designed to be used with a remote and a TV as display, but can also used other setups. But all in all it is "just" a frontend, which means it uses other applications to perform its task. So you can choose between different applications for watching TV, those applications are inserted into freevo as "plugins". There is mplayer, which is the default and should work for almost everybody. Then there is tvtime, which only works for analog Tv (as far as I know) and xine, which works only with DVB at the moment... Hope you can solve your problems.

Re: [Freevo-users] Xine plugin
Hi What is the version of xine freevo detects? You should find something like: "xine.py (114): detect xine version 9903" in freevo's output. Maybe you have to turn on debug first by putting the following two lines at the begin of your local_conf.py: DEBUG = 1 CHILDAPP_DEBUG = 1 I remember that some time ago I had a similar problem. I found that freevo was not able to detect the version of xine at all (version = 0). The reason was that one of the options I put in XINE_COMMAND and XINE_ARGS_DEF was not available and therefor xine returned a error messages from which freevo could not detemine the version. Hope it is that easy...

Leave it to someone, who is using that, to write something new for the new wiki. I do not think that we should move something blindly and untested.

I just tested that on my system (Debian) and found that the installation from the deb-package also does not include any translations at all. I only get the English menus although my environment ist German. Does anyone here know, why that is so? Is it much more difficult to package freevo with the foreign language support? Or was it just a mistake? Anyway, maybe you want to use the "source" tar.gz instead? That was fairly easy, at least for my system. The dependencies should all be fullfilled, from you rpm installation, so hopefully no more problems there. Then you download freevo-1.5.2.tar.gz. Unpack it somewhere and then just start freevo from that directory by typing ./freevo. I don't even need to run any "make" or something. If that works, you can move the directory to a good place like /usr/local or something and make a link like /usr/local/bin/freevo->/usr/local/freevo/freevo so that freevo is in your path...

Re: [Freevo-users] Freevo Menu
Hi, the only file you should edit is your local_conf.py, everything else would mean hacking freevo itself. Freevo's configuration is done via freevo_config.py and local_conf.py, where freevo_config.py contains the defaults and should not be changed. Put your changes in your local_conf.py instead, that will overwrite the things in freevo_config.py. What exactly do you want to change? Maybe someone here can give you some useful hints.

VIDEO_ITEMS should only contain 'real' directories, which are located on your harddisk. So put the directory there where your ripped DVDs are... But even if you let this empty (VIDEO_ITEMS=[]), your drive should appeare in that menu. Do your drives appear in the audio menu? I hope at least that part of your freevo is running, as it should. Just to be sure, set HIDE_UNUSABLE_DISCS = 0 in local_conf.py. That should not be the reason, but who knows. Did you change anything in freevo_conf.py? (You should not!) Have a look at the output of " freevo plugins -l". Is the plugin rom_drives.rom_items marked as active? Tanja Ps: You can get more output by setting DEBUG = 1 in local_conf.py. Maybe you find some hints then. __ Mit WEB.DE FreePhone mit hoechster Qualitaet ab 0 Ct./Min. weltweit telefonieren! http://freephone.web.de/?mc=021201 --- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.

What about audio disks, do they play as they should? Or do you also have problems there? Is there a link from "/dev/dvd" to your drive "/dev/hdc". I once had a similar problem with audio cds, and a link form "/dev/cdrom" to my drive was the solution. So have a look at the output of: ls -l /dev/dvd It should have something like: /dev/dvd ->/dev/hdc If not, do the following: rm /dev/dvd ln -s /dev/hdc /dev/dvd Maybe that helps Tanja __ Mit WEB.DE FreePhone mit hoechster Qualitaet ab 0 Ct./Min. weltweit telefonieren! http://freephone.web.de/?mc=021201 --- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.

But unfortunately that's not all, what is missing. The version of libimlib2 in Debian/sid is to old... Okay, thanks for your help. I guess I will forget that for the moment... By the way, freevo is great. There are still some things missing, as far as I can judge that at the moment, but on the other hand there are already lots of very useful features. Keep at it!
