Re: [Freevo-users] Windows download
Now I see that it's a python app. I must have read that before and didn't notice because I was testing 6 different video capture apps at once. The Website definitely does say that there are instructions in the archives. I just wasn't going to search through it when I had 5 other programs to try. Maybe pasting the text into that web page would be a good idea. Under Windows, the 2 major Python environments I'm aware of are Active Python and IDLE. I'll try one or both when I have time.

When reading your reply you mentioned something about this being the TV module and it made me realize that I didn't describe this well enough. Yes, this is the TV module and this only occurs when either recording or or watching video directly from the TV card. This does not occur when I am watching video that I did not record myself. Also once I have tried watching TV in Freevo it seems to lock in this weird setting. If I try mplayer /dev/video0, before using freevo, everything is OK, then I try freevo and get weird output from the TV then I quit and try mplayer /dev/video0 again and the same weirdness is there as when I tried in freevo. The only way I can get back to normal output is to reboot or to 'rmmod ivtv' and then 'modprobe ivtv' again. So here is my new theory. I think that I may have some messed up IVTV_OPTIONS. I set these in my local_conf.py when I was using IVTV 0.4 with SuSE 10.0 not I am using IVTV 1.x with SuSE 10.2 and a new mobo and processor. Would these options have changed? I used ivtvctl -a before to get these values, but this has changed with this new driver version. How do I get the settings that I need? Here are my ivtv options: TV_IVTV_OPTIONS = { 'input' : 0, 'resolution': '720x480', 'aspect': 2, 'audio_bitmask' : 233, 'bframes' : 3, 'bitrate_mode' : 0, 'bitrate' : 600, 'bitrate_peak' : 900, 'dnr_mode' : 0, 'dnr_spatial' : 0, 'dnr_temporal' : 8, 'dnr_type' : 0, 'framerate' : 0, 'framespergop' : 15, 'gop_closure' : 1, 'pulldown' : 0, 'stream_type' : 0, } Let me know what you think.

[Freevo-users] mplayer arguements
After an upgrade from SuSE 10.0 to 10.2, I have got some wierdness with mplayer. If I just do a 'mplayer /dev/video0' I get pretty good video., but if I use freevo, it changes the 4:3 signal to something that looks like 16:0 and skips a lot. Once I close sown freeo and do a 'mplayer /dev/video0' again, the ourput looks like the freevo output, 16:9ish and choppy. Anyone have any ideas what might be causing this?

[Freevo-users] Crash on IMDB
Hello, A couple of days ago I recorded an episode of "Real Time with Bill Maher". I have another episode scheduled to be recorded tomorrow. I was not sure what would happen if two episodes were in my recorded shows directory at the same time so I wanted to 're-name' this in Freevo. First I deleted the info about the show, then had Freevo look for new data from the IMDB. It comes back with two choices to choose form for possible new data. When I chose one, Freevo crashed. It had also deleted the associated .fxd file so the recording no longer shows up in Freevo. I created a new .fxd file by hand and tried the same process over and it crashed again. Here is the info from main-1000.log. I am using the latest Freevo on SuSE10.0 http://www.imdb.com/find?s=tt;site=aka;q=03%2007%2022%2000%20real%20time%20with%20bill%20maher%20 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/freevo/main.py", line 285, in eventhandler app.eventhandler(event) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/freevo/menu.py", line 673, in eventhandler action( arg=arg, menuw=self ) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/freevo/menu.py", line 92, in select self.function(arg=self.arg, menuw=menuw) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/freevo/video/plugins/imdb.py", line 208, in imdb_create_fxd fxd.setImdbId(arg[0]) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/freevo/util/fxdimdb.py", line 185, in setImdbId self.parsedata(idpage, id) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/freevo/util/fxdimdb.py", line 614, in parsedata self.info['year'] = title.find('a').string.strip() AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'string' Thanks for your help, Tom - Take Surveys.

[Freevo-users] "Lesson Learned" form debugging
Hello, I just wanted to pass along a lesson I learned form trying to debug a problem I had with freevo. You all probably already know this, but maybe it could be captured in the example conf file. I had used a script that generated my channel list to put into my local_conf.py. I downloaded it from somewhere on the net, but I don't remember where. Anyway, I was having a problem that any channel that had a channel number less then 10 I could not tune to. If I tried to 'play' that channel it would bring up the tv view and play what ever the last channel it was tuned to. After trying many things, I remembered that I read somewhere that mplayer (and maybe xine too) have trouble with channel numbers that are padded with zeros. In other words channel '2' should not be listed in the TV_CHANNELS section as '02'. I changed that and my tuner worked without problem. Next I noticed that I was having the same problem again, but this time it was with recording a program. I could not even think of what to try. Finally after trying some different things I realized that the record server needed to be stopped, and 'freevo tv_grab' needed to be re-ran before I re-started the server. I don't understand why this was the case, but this fixed my problem. I think that it would make sense to include this in the comments section near the TV_CHANNELS section. Maybe something like this: If any changes are made to this section, stop all Freevo processes (record server, et al) and re-run 'freevo tv_grab' before restarting. Maybe someone who understands why this needed to be done can word smith this a bit to make it more accurate. Hope this helps someone from spending hours like I did trying to figure this one out.

Thanks Elisabeth, Here are the only lines form local_conf.py that I can see that would affect this: XMLTV_GRABBER = '/usr/bin/tv_grab_na_dd' XMLTV_DAYS = 7 XMLTV_FILE = '.freevo/TV.xml' I guess that I am not sure how to tell there it is reading or writting from, but I was guessing that it used XMLTV_FILE.

[Freevo-users] tv-grab problems
Hello, I am very new to Freevo and I am having problems getting data into the TV guide. I am using tv_grab_na_dd and have this working correctly with another program (Maxemum TV-Guide) so I know that I have the grabber configures correctly. When I go into TV Guide, it lists all of my Channels, but says no data is available for all channels. When I run 'freevo tv_grab' it successfully downloads data. I am using SuSE 10.0 and the latest freevo. Not sure what other information to include here. Thanks, Tom Weichmann - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Re: [Freevo-users] Freevo mplayer EOF crash
Hi, I have the exact same problem. It seems that the function restart (in osd.py) is getting called twice when mplayer gets to EOF. I was chatting in the IRC room this eve and hacked together an osd.py that works. I added an 'osdactive' variable (Default = True) to the class OSD and set this to False when the display is stopped. When restart is called it will only call the restartdisplay functions if the osdactive function is set to False. Then the 2nd time it gets called, osdactive is True and the functions dont get called a second time. Messy hack and doesnt address the fact that its getting called twice. my osd.py is here... http://tomfrancis.dyndns.org/junk/osd.py Use as is and is untested. I also gave it to someone in IRC so that it can be submitted properly.

Re: [Freevo-users] Problem with Mplayer sound
OK, so I delved in further. First I forced the plugin to load by setting the mplayer version to 1 and that crashed freevo when trying to play an avi from the menu. Playing an avi in standalone mplayer still works just fine. Then I tried installing freevo from scratch, installing the freevo runtime. This did nothign whatsoever. Then I tried installing 1.5.1 which gave me a nicer error about the failure to detect the mplayer version (though it was still unable to detect it correctly which is strange as I tried the detection code in another .py script and it worked just fine!).

[Freevo-users] Problem with Mplayer sound
Hi, I have freevo 1.5.0 on a new Gentoo box and am using the dxr3 for my video and audio output. I have the dxr3 working ok, video and freevo displays with it ok. I have the sound working also as I can play movies directly with mplayer using "-vo oss:/dev/em8300_ma-0" and the sound is fine. However, when I try to run a movie from freevo, the video from mplayer works fine, but there is no audio. I have set MPLAYER_AO_DEV = 'oss:/dev/em8300_ma-0' so I would expect it to work. I tried to look for this problem but couldnt find anything yet. Any ideas? Tom... ___ALL-NEW Yahoo!

I had the same problem right after I upgraded. My problem was that I had changed the alsa mplayer args in the older version, so I just had a change todo in the new config file.

[Freevo-users] Problem with a webradio link

If I try that from within Freevo, I get the music but not the video. The problem (I assume) is that Freevo issues the mplayer command with the '-vo null' parameter for all Webradio links. Is there some way to override that for specific links, or do I need to wait until the next version of the runtime? Tom --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.

[Freevo-users] Freevo - My Experiences/Ideas/Comments
velopment, just thought I would give some ideas. -> Would it be difficult to add some progress to the cd ripping ? The current progress status sucks ! Things I still want to add to my system : -> I've got a flyvideo tv card using the saa1734 chipset, still want to get it working on a 2.4.20 kernel (any ideas ?). And setup the whole tv section, at first I wasn't planning on using it, but now that it's so far, i'd really like to try it out. -> Hack at the mame pluging and try to improve it lots (can I ?), it's a good way for me to learn some python. -> Bigger harddrive! - the ease of the system helped the get the drive nearly full. Why ? Because my gf can use it now and she is continuously enjoying herself by putting our music cd's on the system :) Damn, I love her ! -> setup a bootsplash, the only thing that still makes it looks ugly is the bootup, but got autologin working and it then starts x with freevo -> setup other game emulators. Get second gamepad to work. Things I'd like to see added to Freevo -> Config interface -> DVD ripping, I can rip dvd's at the moment with a script I put together and mplayer, but I'd like to have something in the freevo interface (with progress bars !) -> Better Mame support -> Better tvguide layout -> Plugin which will allow me to navigate a folder full of text files and then display them in a readable font on the tv. -> Better documentation, it's clear to me that freevo consists of lots of features and options which aren't even documented yet. ** Summary ** I think thats about all, can't think of anything else right now. It basically comes down to the following (for me anyways). Freevo is a great system, which lots of nice features and it looks, works and play excellent. The only drawbacks I can find is the configuration, although I enjoyed scratching around in the config files, I'm pretty sure not everybody feels the same way, and the incomplete documentation (being worked on atm I think). Freevo has covered all my needs and after spending some time setting it, it runs beautifully !!! I love it and my friend are getting jealous because it works so well (I'll bet they are going to bring some pc's soon so that I can setup the same system for them). I'm also very impressed with the way the plugins are handled and the ease of writing new plugins. Expect some from me soon. Congratulations from me to the developers. Sorry for any mistakes in this *long* email, i quickly typed it, and at the moment I'm very tired, sat up all night playing mame games, ripping music cd's and watching movies, check out the cartoons, etc, etc, etc...

[Freevo-users] Freevo Tips - Get your daily cartoons on your tv [TIP]
Hi Guys, I very much like my cartoons everyday and I thought it would be a perfect thing to have my cartoons brought to my tv everyday without any hassles. Seeing as I have a working freevo system up and running on my tv I decided that this would be the perfect view method. I used the program dailystrips (http://dailystrips.sourceforge.net/) to get my favourite cartoons eveyday and put it in a folder which I setup as a picture folder on my freevo. Here is how you do it : 1. Create your own cartoons folder : mkdir /pictures/cartoons 2. Edit your local_conf.py to point to your picture folder : DIR_IMAGES = [ ('Cartoons', '/pictures/cartoons'), ... ] 3. After you have installed dailycartoons use dailycartoons -list to get a list of all available cartoons. 4. Create a script called getcartoons containing the following : # -- start of script #!/bin/sh # get my fav cartoons dailystrips --local -stripdir -save -basedir /pictures/cartoons \ dilbert garfield thefifthwave # -- end of script and put a link to it in your cron.daily Works like a charm for me. Dailystrips will put all the cartoons in their own respective directory and you can navigate it via the freevo interface. Keep in mind that if you are using your freevo system with a tv then it does make reading some of the cartoons (if the text is small) to read, but I think there is a zooming capability for your pics in freevo ? Anybody else have some cool freevo tips they would like to share ? Tom --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program. Does SourceForge.net help you be more productive?

[Freevo-users] Possible DVD Ripping Solution
I'm using the following method to rip dvd's with mplayer. I use the following script : -- start of script #!/bin/sh # Transcodes given dvd to divx5/mp3 format nice -n+19 mencoder -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vhq -oac mp3lame -lameopts preset=extreme -noskip -o $1.divx -alang en -dvd $2 -- end of script Create a file called dvdcode and insert the above text, make it executable and voila ! Use it like so dvdcode moviefilename titleno eg : dvdcode matrix_reloaded 1 Hope anyone can use this. I use it for all my dvd ripping and it rips it to a good quality movie, within reasonable size.

[Freevo-users] Problem with mplayer parms when playing .m3u streams
(SuSE 8.2, Freevo 1.4 runtime) When trying to play the following stream from Freevo: http://www.publicbroadcasting.net/hppr/ppr/hppr.m3u I see that Freevo is issuing the following mplayer command, but fails to play the audio stream after filling the cache: ChildApp.__init__(), pid=6703, app=./runtime/runapp --prio=-20 /usr/local/bin/mplayer -slave -ac mad, -autosync 100 -nolirc -autoq 100 -screenw 800 -screenh 600 -fs -vo null -ao oss:/dev/dsp -playlist -cache 100 http://www.publicbroadcasting.net/hppr/ppr/hppr.m3u, poll=-1 If I enter that command in a terminal window (less the '-slave', '-vo null' and 'poll=-1' parms), the stream likewise doesn't play. However, if I swap the '-cache 100' and '-playlist' parms, the stream _does_ play. Is there some way I can swap those parms in a config file? This from the 'man mplayer:' -playlist Play files according to a playlist (1 file per row or Winamp or ASX format). NOTE: This option is considered an entry so options found after it will apply only to the elements of this playlist. I _think_ that this implies that mplayer expects the next parm to be the playlist, and all other parms following it only apply to the playlist.

[Freevo-users] Arg! Trying to run 1.4rc4 on SuSE
A little history to show how I got where I'm at: Installed SuSE 8.2, (everything it would let me) Installed Blackdown JRE 1.4 Removed crippled mplayer with 'rpm -e mplayer' Downloaded mplayer from www.mplayerHQ.hu', source code Compiled the mplayer source (./configure, make, make install) Tested mplayer by playing a DVD Downloaded Freevo 1.4rc4, ran 'pythong setup.py install' Told that I need mmpython and where to get it Downloaded mmpython.prm from suggested site. Installation said that I needed livdvdread.so.3 Found livdvdread.so.3 for SuSE 8.2 on rpm.pbone.net, installed it Ran 'rpm -Uvh mmpython' to install mmpython Ran 'python seetup.py install' again, same message about mmpython being missing. What the heck, I'll reboot. Same thing. Log out, log in as root. Same thing. Rats. Downloaded the Freevo runtime, stuck it in the same directory that I earlier had unpacked the freevo stuff. Ran './freevo setup', I guess it did what it needed. Ran './freevo' - oops, told that I need freevo_conf.py and local_conf.py. Looked for those files, the only place I see freevo_conf is in ~/.freevo. Copied local_conf.py.sample from freevo directory to .freevo, renamed it to local_conf.py (end of history) Ran ./freevo, chugs along for a few seconds only to get this stuff then freevo bombs out: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> cd freevo [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/freevo> ./freevo Error: DIR_MOVIES not set, set it to Home directory Error: DIR_AUDIO not set, set it to Home directory Error: DIR_IMAGES not set, set it to Home directory Error: DIR_RECORD not set Please set DIR_RECORD to the directory, where recordings should be stored or remove the tv plugin.

[Freevo-users] Debian apt-get install errors
To all, I just joined this mailing list in hopes of getting some direction on installing freevo on my Debian box. I am running Debian 3.0r1 and have installed all the latest stable patches/updates. When I try and run apt-get install freevo, per the site directions (I did add the correct resources), I get an dependencies errors about python not being the latest 2.3 version. I then try and install the needed version but the apt program tells me I am up to date. I am assuming that I am up to date on the stable release but may need to install this newer unstable release. Any ideas are welcome. Thanks, Tom --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program. Does SourceForge.net help you be more productive? Does it help you create better code?

Re: [Freevo-users] Freevo doesn\'t start on Gentoo 1.4
Probably not what you want to hear, but I just installed freevo on a Gentoo 1.4 box w/o any problems. Did you emerge freevo, or build it on your own? I am new to Gentoo, this is my 1st Gentoo install, but are you running with some very optimized flags in your make.conf? If so, maybe you have compiled a broken binary of python or something else!!

Re: [Freevo-users] All of a sudden, 1.4rc1 is *S*L*O*W....
I've kind-of gotten working like normal again. My problem is that if I activate the plugin.weather, Freevo comes to a virtual standstill and takes forever to display any screen. But I'd still like to know how to _remove_ Freevo, so that I can properly install newer updates.

Redhat 8.0, Freevo 1.4rc1, running Freevo in terminal window. My PC locked up this morning, and ever since rebooting Freevo is malfunctioning. It takes about 3 minutes to get to the main menu, and it does nothing after it gets there (or it's so slow that I'm too impatient to wait).

Re: [Freevo-users] Re: Problems with 1.4-rc1
As you suggested, I started freevo like so: [EMAIL PROTECTED] tomh]$ cd freevo [EMAIL PROTECTED] tomh]$ ./freevo -fs Freevo tried to start. The screen went mostly blank (black), with some stray gibberish in the middle of the screen. Apparently the system locked up (I couldn't see anything else when I pressed Alt-Tab). After rebooting, I added the following line to /etc/freevo/local_conf.py: DEBUG=1 I ran freevo as above with the same result. I rebooted, and looked for the file /var/log/freevo/main-[uid], and found that there is no freevo directory in /var/log. But I did see lots of new messages in the command window when I ran freevo. I scrolled thru the window, and saw the line which shows how mplayer is being run: /usr/bin/mplayer -ac mad, -autosync 100 -nolirc -autoq 100 -screenw 800 -screenh 600 -fs -slave -ao oss:/dev/dsp -cache 5000 -v -vo xv,sdl,x11,"/home/tomh/DVArchive/Local_Guide/Star Trek - Enterprise - Impulse.mpg", poll=-1 If I enter that command directly in the command window, I get the following error messages: File not found: '/home/tomh/DVArchive/Local_Guide/Star Trek - Enterprise - Impulse.mpg,' vo: x11 uninit called but X11 not inited.. I removed the comma from in front of the 'poll=-1' and I get the same thing that I get when I try playing the video from within Freevo; ie, the blank screen with audio. Removing the 'poll=-1' makes no difference. Systematically removing parameters results in the following: removing 'poll=-1' : no difference removing '-v' : no difference removing '-vo xv,sdl,x11' : video plays Hmmm... something must be wrong with the -vo switch. I changed it to 'vo x11' and the video plays just fine. Playing around the parameters a bit more, I find that the video plays acceptably when I enter the command like so: /usr/bin/mplayer -zoom "/home/tomh/DVArchive/Local_Guide/Star Trek - Enterprise - Impulse.mpg" So how do I get freevo to issue the mplayer command like I do in the command window? I've changed the MPLAYER_ARGS_DEF line to be: MPLAYER_ARGS_DEF = (('-ac mad, -autosync 100 -nolirc -autoq 100 -screenw 1024 -screenh 768 -zoom -vo xv,x11,')) Which results in the freevo-issued mplayer command: /usr/bin/mplayer -ac mad, -autosync 100 -nolirc -autoq 100 -screenw 1024 -screenh 768 -zoom -vo xv,x11, -slave -ao oss:/dev/dsp -cache 5000 -v -vo xv,sdl,x11,"/home/tomh/DVArchive/Local_Guide/Star Trek - Enterprise - Impulse.mpg" , poll=-1 I want to override the -vo parameter, but apparently I can't.

My setup: RH9.0, nVidia GeForce 4 440 Go on a Dell Latitude laptop. Display resolution is at 1024x768. I've downloaded and installed nVidia's driver from their website. Whenever I select to display a DVD, the movie starts - but the display is all the way in the upper left corner with the top part up beyond the top of the screen so that I can't 'move' the movie display. If I hit 'Z' to go full screen I get a full screen all right - but it's solid black until I 'Z' again to get back to a windowed screen. I've tried various screen resolutions up thru 1600x1200 with the same results. Also, if I jump to another workspace while the movie is playing - the movie follows me to the other workspace.

[Freevo-users] Trouble playing .mp3, DVDs and audio CDs
I just downloaded and installed today's latest Freevo 1.3.2. I'm having some problems with it: - I have a bunch of .mp3 files in '/home/tomh/My Tunes'. Freevo sees and displays their titles. When I select one to play, Freevo just rolls thru the entire listing and doesn't play any of them. Same thing if I select the PL:Random Playlist. - I have a copy-protected DVD (The Sphere). When I insert it, Freevo's main menu disappears and a blank Freevo screen is displayed (blank as in black with the Freevo border). The movie doesn't play, and I'm given no message to indicate why it doesn't play. I can press (esc) to return to the Movie selection screen. If I press 'p' on the blank screen Freevo crashes. I have "MPLAYER_DVD_PROTECTION = 0" in my local_conf.py file. - I have an audio CD. If I start Freevo then insert the CD, Freevo doesn't recognize that there is a CD in the drive. However, if I first start KsCD then exit KsCD after playing a few seconds, then immediately start Freevo - Freevo DOES recognize that the CD is inserted. If I then select the CD title, Freevo crashes. Subsequent restarts of Freevo will again say there is no CD in the drive, though KsCD will still recognize it and play it. On rare occasions, Freevo will recognize that there is a CD in the drive without my first starting KsCD; when that happens I can select the CD title - nothing plays and Freevo just quickly rolls thru all of the song titles (but no crash). - I like to finish with a positive note: I can view all of my .jpgs! --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Etnus, makers of TotalView, The best thread debugger on the planet.
