Re: [Freevo-users] Windows download

2009-12-31 Thread Tom Del Rosso
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.

[Freevo-users] Windows download

2009-12-27 Thread Tom Del Rosso
Hey guys, the website says you have a Windows executable, but the download 
page has only Linux versions.  There is a Windows page that says there are 
instructions "somewhere".  Couldn't you copy and paste them to that page 
please?

OK, I have a new theory about this.  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.

Tom

Thanks Duncan, I should have thought of that before:

/usr/bin/mplayer -vo xv,sdl,x11,  -ao sdl -autosync 
100 -nolirc -nojoystick -autoq 100 -screenw 800 -screenh 
600 -fs -slave -cache 8192 /dev/video0, poll=-1

This should be the default, as I have not changed anything.

Thanks,

Tom

[Freevo-users] mplayer arguements

2007-03-11 Thread Tom Weichmann
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?

Thanks,

Tom Weichmann

Hello,

I see in my local_conf.py I see the following:

AMAZON_LOCALE = 'us'
AMAZON_QUERY_ENCODING = 'latin-1'

I can't seem to figure out how the amazon thing works.  Is this for 
downloading cover art for my music collecton?

I've been looking around for this and cannot come up with the answer.  Is 
there any way to format the displayed program times in the TV Guide as the

[Freevo-users] Crash on IMDB

2007-03-08 Thread Tom Weichmann
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

[Freevo-users] "Lesson Learned" form debugging

2007-03-07 Thread Tom Weichmann

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.

Re: [Freevo-users] Error with makelogos

2007-03-07 Thread Tom Weichmann

Duncan,

Yeah, that is what I thought too. I used the 'freevo makelogos' command to get 
these logos. Is there anyway that I can use it differently to get better logos 
or should I just do it manually?
Anyone out there have a script that will do this for me?

OK, I got this to work, just needed to re-install imlib2 for some reason...

New question about logos though, I have logos in my tv guide, but they are 
VERY low res and they are distorted.  They are stretched to fit the box they 
appear in.  Is there any way to fix this?

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> freevo makelogos
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/freevo/helpers/makelogos.py", line

So there is nothing in the  /tmp/kaa-1000/ directory.  Is this a problem with 
kaa maybe?  Seems strange.

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.  Are there other variables that I 
need to set here?

Thanks,
Tom

[Freevo-users] tv-grab problems

2007-03-04 Thread Tom Weichmann
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

[Freevo-users] Trying out Freevo 2.0 - Problems

2006-10-05 Thread Tom Van den Bon
Hi Everybody,

I decided to give Freevo 2.0 a shot and see whats happening. I followed 
the instructions from the wiki and have freevo and kaa compiled and 
installed. But when I try to run it 'freevo' under X, i get the 
following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/freevo", line 172, in ?
  import beacon
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/freevo/ui/beacon.py", line 36, in ?

File 
"/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/kaa/beacon/thumbnail/thumbnail.py", 
line 229, in connect
  raise RuntimeError('unable to connect to thumbnail server')
RuntimeError: unable to connect to thumbnail server

Am I starting it correctly ? What about configuration ?

Thanks,
Tom

P.S - Sorry for the double post but I'm not sure wheter I should post to the 
users list or to the devel list on Freevo 2.0 ?

[Freevo-users] local_conf.py Generator

2005-05-20 Thread Tom Van den Bon
I've been playing around with something last night. It's a local_conf.py
generator. You basically edit all the options via a web interface and then
it generates the source for your local_conf.py

It's still very incomplete, but it will give you an idea of what I'm
planning to do. I'd like some feedback, ideas and should I continue with
this or does everybody think its stupid ?

[Freevo-users] Media Portal Skins ?

I saw that a new media portal(http://mediaportal.sourceforge.net/) 
software was released, very similiar. Although I would never go over to 
windows and run it, instead of freevo and linux, I do like the skins. 
Would there be a way to convert these to work on freevo ? Is it legal ?

Just wondering,

Re: [Freevo-users] Freevo mplayer EOF crash

2004-11-01 Thread Tom Francis
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.

Cheers,

Tom Francis

Re: [Freevo-users] Problem with Mplayer sound

2004-10-01 Thread Tom Francis
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!). The
solution was to add the MPLAYER_VERSION = 1 (or 1.0)
to local_config.py.

This resulted in the loading of the plugin, but the
behaviour is the same as when I forced the plugin to
load in 1.5.0. The output from freevo -trace when
selecting an avi is as follows...

Hope someone has an idea...

Re: [Freevo-users] Problem with Mplayer sound

2004-09-30 Thread Tom Francis
Are there any forums or IRC rooms that I can seek
advice on too? I am kinda stuck here and dont know
what to do.

I tried delving in a little deeper by running freevo
-trace and found that it gives the following errors..
(amongst many others!)

mplayer.py (99): MPlayer version set to: None
plugin video.mplayer deactivated, reason: failed to
detect mplayer version

Looking deeper into this I find that the function that
looks for the mplayer version is not working right...

child = popen2.Popen3( "%s -v" % config.MPLAYER_CMD,
1, 100)

>From adding _debug_ lines, I dont think this function
is returning anything. I have checked the
config.MPLAYER_CMD is correct and confirmed that
/usr/bin/mplayer -v does output the version info on
the first line.

So I am stumped. I dont know if this is anything to do
with my root problem, but maybe it does.

Somoene please help me :)

[Freevo-users] Problem with Mplayer sound

2004-09-30 Thread Tom Francis
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...

[Fwd: Re: [Freevo-users] Music does not play]

2004-08-01 Thread Tom Van den Bon
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. Try playing a mp3 with mplayer in 
the console and if that works then you know that its prob a wrong 
setting in you local_conf.py, have a look under the mplayer sound args

Freevo doesn't display any error messages. Any idea what's gone wrong?

Hi Guys,
I just upgraded to Freevo 1.5 on my gentoo box and I just love the new

AUDIO, VIDEO, and IMAGES settings. It's the same that my previous config
was :
/media/movies

/media/mp3
but when i run 'freevo cache', I get the following :
ERROR: VIDEO_ITEMS contains root directory, skipped.
ERROR: AUDIO_ITEMS contains root directory, skipped.
ERROR: IMAGE_ITEMS contains root directory, skipped.
And also when in freevo it doesn't show that I have setup the
directories, it only shows Home and Root and then I have to navigate to
the right directories.
Any ideas ? It worked fine in 1.4
Thanks,

[Freevo-users] Freevo with FC2?

2004-05-17 Thread Tom Elsesser
Hi,
 I have an opteron smp system which is running fedora core 1 right
now. I would like to utilize the 64-bit processors by using core 2,
test 3, but I am wondering if Freevo would have issues with a 64-bit
kernel? I am thinking the ivtv driver (for my pvr-250) would be the
biggest hurdle.

Thoughts? TIA.

[Freevo-users] Freevo comes and goes

2004-02-20 Thread Tom Bragg
I've installed freevo on my debian unstable system. I have tried both using the apt 
sources and downloading the source and compiling with the same result. When I run 
freevo, it launches and then just disappears again. There don't seem to be any error 
messages anywhere and I'm not sure where to start to fix this problem.
 
Relevant system information:
Debian Unstable. 
2.6.3 hand-rolled kernel
5336 Nvidia drivers with Geforce FX card.
Running freevo from within X, using xfce4
Resolution 1024x768
 
Any help appreciated.

I have tried both /dev/dsp and /dev/dsp1.  If I use
/dev/dsp I get sound on the PC speakers but not on the
recorded video - mencoder crashes with /dev/dsp1.  See
output for both commands below.  If anyone needs more
information, please ask.

I've pretty much isolated this to mplayer and will
start to research the problem in that context.  I
figured one or more of you might have seen/solved this
problem so I figured I'd ask to input.

Thanks in advance and Happy New Year!

[Freevo-users] Problem with a webradio link

2003-12-08 Thread Tom Hightower
(SuSE 8.2, Freevo runtime 1.4)

I have the following entry in my media-marks file:

[ENTRY]
  [TITLE]The Pools (with video)[/TITLE]
  [REF HREF="http://relaxradio.com/content/pools.rm"/]
  [TIME start="0"/]
[/ENTRY]

If I enter the following at a terminal prompt:

mplayer http://relaxradio.com/content/pools.rm

I get a nice little video with some background music playing.  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

OK I tried that, followed by freevo tv_grab, but it did not seem to make much 
difference. I had to restart freevo recordserver if that helps.

[Freevo-users] Freevo - My Experiences/Ideas/Comments

2003-12-04 Thread Tom Van den Bon
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]

2003-11-30 Thread Tom Van den Bon
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

[Freevo-users] Possible DVD Ripping Solution

2003-11-30 Thread Tom Van den Bon
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.

My 2c worth

Tom

Most likely, python is very picky about which column code shows up in. For
instance I had a variable that started one or two spaces in from column 0
and it barfed. Erasing those few spaces fixed everything.

[Freevo-users] Can Freevo 1.4 runtime play .m3u streams at all?

2003-11-29 Thread Tom Hightower
(Freevo 1.4 runtime, SuSE 8.2)

Here's a snippet from my shoutcast-mediamarks file:

[ENTRY]
  [TITLE]KTXT Texas Tech Univ (Lubbock Tx)[/TITLE]
  [REF HREF="-playlist http://www.ktxt.net/live_high.m3u "/]
  [TIME start="0"/]
[/ENTRY]



When I select this Webradio entry, here's what is being issued by Freevo 
(which takes about a half-second to complete and return to the Freevo 
selection screen, with no attempt to play the stream):

mplayer.py (105): MPlayer version is: 1.0pre2-3.3
mplayer.py (113): MPlayer version set to: 1.0
menu.py (632): no eventhandler for event PLUGIN_EVENT IDENTIFY_MEDIA

null -ao oss:/dev/dsp -playlist http://www.ktxt.net/live_high.m3u , poll=-1



Now, if I copy/paste that last part in a terminal window, mplayer plays the 
stream just fine:

Removing the '-playlist ' parameter from the URL in the shoutcast-mediamarks 
file makes no difference; Freevo simply re-inserts itself before issuing the 
mplayer call (but in the wrong sequence).  I've tried several .m3u links, all 
with the same result.


Any ideas?

That works on my system (SuSE 8.2, Freevo 1.4 runtime), and I can live with it 
until a better solution comes along.  Thanks Dischi!

[Freevo-users] Problem with mplayer parms when playing .m3u streams

2003-11-25 Thread Tom Hightower
(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.

Tom

BTW - the link plays fine when running mplayer from a terminal session:

(it doesn't play unless I add the -playlist before the link)

(SuSE 8.2, Freevo runtime 1.4, mplayer compiled from source)

On mine, I can start Freevo without the disc in the drive but as soon as I 
insert the DVD it crashes out.

Audio CDs are working well.

I removed (or commented) all references to 'xine' in local_config.py and 
freevo_config.py files.  I also pulled the python-mmpython rpm file, rebuilt 
the rpm, removed mmpython (with rpm -e mmpython), then installed the 
newly-built mmpython.  Still crashes.

Guess I'll just hafta wait 'til SuSE 9.0 is available for download.

[Freevo-users] Arg! Trying to run 1.4rc4 on SuSE

2003-11-19 Thread Tom Hightower
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:

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

Are you saying that I can buy a 1GHz system for ~$100 US?  Does this include 
TV out, or would I have to add that?  Can you give me more information about 
the HW, like where to buy it from - etc?

Were you able to take a look at my problem playing .m3u streams, wherein
I need to supply "-playlist" parameter to MPlayer?

I'm using:
 freevo 1.4rc1 (no CVS)
 MPlayer 1.0pre2-RPM-3.1 (C) 2000-2003 MPlayer Team

>From a terminal line:
$ mplayer -playlist http://www.ktxt.net/live_high.m3u -cache 100
fills the cache, then plays the audio stream

$ mplayer http://www.ktxt.net/live_high.m3u -cache 100
fills the cache, then exits without playing the audio stream.

No matter what I set the cache value, or how long I wait, .m3u streams
don't play without the -playlist parameter.

So... I reckon Freevo needs to somehow supply the -playlist parameter
whenever I want it to play .m3u streams, but the only way I've been able
to get that to happen is to add that parm to the end of my
MPLAYER_AO_DEV line (I tried adding 'm3u' and '.m3u' lines to the
MPLAYER_ARGS section, but that didn't help).

Re: [Freevo-users] Freevo doesn\'t start on Gentoo 1.4

2003-10-31 Thread Tom Weichmann
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!!

Hello,

I have been following the progress of freevo for quite some time now, but I 
have just decided to give it a whirl for the first time.

I have an old box that just bearly meets the low end requirements (K6-2 366).  
I have installed Gentoo 1.4 and emerged freevo.  I have everything setup and 
am ready to take it into the living room, but I am having TV out problems.


I bought a cheap TV out card from Ebay, not even thinking about Linux support 
(d Not Sure What I Was Thinking) 

Has Anyone ever talked about getting a the following to work? It has both 
composite and S-Video outputs.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] $ cat /proc/pci

  Bus  0, device  11, function  0:
VGA compatible controller: Trident Microsystems TGUI 9660/938x/968x (rev 
211).
  Master Capable.  Latency=64.
  Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xff40 [0xff7f].
  Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xffaf [0xffaf].
  Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xff00 [0xff3f].


I can not seem to find anything about this on the net.

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

But I'd still like to know how to _remove_ Freevo, so that I can

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

I'm thinking that I need to uninstall Freevo, and start from scratch.
How do I do that?

Re: [Freevo-users] Legal issue for plugins

2003-10-16 Thread Tom
I think of it more as killer front-end with some folder/directory
processing.  Especially with it's "everything will be a plug-in"
philosophy.

[Freevo-users] Adjusting the Webradio list

2003-10-13 Thread Tom
Is there some way that I can add / remove stations to the Webradio
listing?  For example I want to add the the KANZ stream (High Plains
Public Radio, Garden City, KS, USA), webpage located at
http://www.publicbroadcasting.net/hppr/ppr/index.shtml.

There are 2 links on that page:
MP3 .PLS stream: http://pubint.sc.linwd.net:9095/listen.pls
MP3 .M3U stream: http://www.publicbroadcasting.net/hppr/ppr/hppr.m3u

Any idea on how I can add them to the freevo list?

I added the following line to /etc/freevo/local_conf.py:
MPLAYER_VO_DEV = 'vo xv,x11'

And my MPLAYER_ARGS_DEV is now:
MPLAYER_ARGS_DEV = (('-ac mad, -autosync 100 -nolirc -autoq 100 -screenw
1024 -screenh 768 -zoom'))

My MPG video displays well.

Thanks for the help!

Re: [Freevo-users] Re: Problems with 1.4-rc1

2003-10-12 Thread Tom
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.  Is it
possible?

[Freevo-users] Problems with 1.4-rc1

2003-10-11 Thread Tom
I have mplayer installed and working fine, both with gui and the command
line versions.  MPGs play well, using X11 video.  Audio also works.

When I select one of the MPGs to play from within Freevo, I can hear the
movie playing but I cannot see it.  Instead, I get a blank (black)
window.

Any idea on what I should change to be able to view the movie?

[Freevo-users] Problem displaying video

2003-06-20 Thread Tom
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.  I'd rather it stayed in the
workspace wherein I started it.

Any ideas?

I get the following message:

[Freevo-users] Trouble playing .mp3, DVDs and audio CDs

2003-06-08 Thread Tom

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!
