Re: [Freevo-users] Mplayer at full screen

2009-12-29 Thread bret clark

I believe mplayer should play at full screen without any changes to a conf 
file. If it isn't make sure your geometry setting is correct in the freevo.conf 
file.

[Freevo-users] last.fm plugin not working

2009-10-09 Thread bret clark

Okay, just discovered last.fm website which is pretty cool, but it appears the 
plugin for freevo no longer works. Seems the url 
http://ws.audioscrobbler.com/radio that the plugin uses is no longer valid and 
that last.fm says that to use http://www.last.fm/api.  Anyone know how to fix 
this in the plugin? My programming skills are rather weak.

Re: [Freevo-users] Different Audio configs for music and video?

2009-10-03 Thread bret clark

Okay, well I band-aid a fix by just editing the 
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/freevo/audio/plugins/mplayer.py and manually 
adding the command I needed. Of course it will get overwritten when I upgrade 
so I'll have to keep that in mind. 

Maybe having a MPLAYER_MUSIC_AO option that audio mplayer plugin read in would 
solve the problem.

Is it possible to run different audio out config when I'm playing music verses

MPLAYER_AO_DEV_OPTS =' -ac hwac3,a52,hwdts,' which works great for all my 
movies.  But I also want to use freevo to play my SACD music CD's and need to 
use the command line config of "-ao alsa:device=spdif". 

I need to have Freevo use one or the other depending on what I'm playing.  Been 
reading through the local_config.py file, but finding nothing that would let me 
do what I need.  Any suggestions?

Subject: [Freevo-users] Not able to play movie w/ AC3 (DD5.1)

Dear Freevo users,

I upgraded from 1.7 to Freevo 1.8.3  last week. I used to be able to play avi's 
with AC3 (= Dolby Digital 5.1 surround) sound. I use the mplayer option '-afm 
hwac3' to redirect the digital audiostreem directly to the s/pdif (= digital 
audio IN) of my Dolby Digital Amplifier/receiver. But now avi's w/ AC3 sound do 
not start and Freevo does not show any error messages on the command line. If I 
leave out he option '-afm hwac3' in /etc/freevo/local_conf.py then the avi does 
play back, be it without DD5.1 sound (i.e. simply downmixed stereo).


These very same avi's do, however, play just fine w/ DD5.1 surround sound if I 
start them outside of Freevo in mplayer w/ the same commandline options. What 
can I do?

I did a search and didn't see anyone mention this. But when getting

Re: [Freevo-users] IMAGE_PATH for GAMES

2008-03-17 Thread Bret Clark
I just went through this battle. I discovered that the format has to be
png and most emulators have a key that you can press to do a screen
capture. Or you can do what I did and google for images of the boxes the
game came in and use that. Freevo will display this image when you
select the game much like it displays the posters of movies.

IIRC it is the directory where screen shots of a game is saved.

I'm not sure how one is generated

Yes, I'm using "/usr/local/bin/zsnes', '-m -k 100 -ad alsa09 -t " and its 
working making for one happy 6 year old nephew. 

Another question though, do pictures work with snes config prompt. Tried 
putting in a path to my picture directory to display the game box image, but 
nothing appears.

Re: [Freevo-users] Trouble with games

2008-03-13 Thread bret clark

Bingo! Turns out it was a syntax problem, guess the example switches included 
in the config file are no longer valid with the latest versions of zsnes and 
xmame. Although what is the syntax for the DEBUG commands? I wasn't able to get 
that to work, but instead used FREEVO_LOGDIR = '/home/freevo/log' and when 
looking at the log files notice that the apps were complaining about the 
switches so you certainly  put me on the right track with the problem being 
related to command switches.

Thanks for the suggestion!

[Freevo-users] Trouble with games

2008-03-13 Thread bret clark

I'm running version 1.7.6.1, but I'm having zero luck getting xmame or zsnes 
working. Basically the screen blanks for a moment then returns back to the menu 
screen. When running "freevo -trace" I don't  get much feedback.  Tried 
searching the archives as well as some googling, but didn't find much to 
suggest a fix for the problem. 

Both apps work find when started from a shell prompt so I'm not sure why Freevo 
won't run. I've been using Freevo for several years and I'm certian my config 
file is okay:

GAMES_ITEMS = [
 ('MAME', '/home/freevo/xmame/roms', 
 ('MAME', '/usr/games/xmame.SDL', '-fullscreen -modenumber 6', 
 '/home/freevo/xmame/pictures', None)),
('SUPER NINTENDO', '/home/freevo/xmess/snes', 
('SNES', '/usr/local/bin/zsnes', '-m -r 3 -k 100 -cs -u ', '', None ))
 ]

Any help would be appreciated, not sure where to go next.

[Freevo-users] Using xine's visualization for music?

2007-06-18 Thread bret clark
Is there a way to get Freevo to display xine's visualization when playing 
music? I took a look at xine.py in the audio directory, but i'm not familiar 
with python and nothing stood out for me other then change the "-V" option, 
but  that didn't work.

I tried search for this info, but didn't have much luck.

Thanks

Re: [Freevo-users] freevo + vdr + xine

2007-06-12 Thread Bret Clark
apt-get remove xine-lib xine-ui

then do a "make install" from the directory where you compiled xine.
This will probably install every thing into the /usr/local directory
under bin and lib.

Subject: [Freevo-users] freevo + vdr + xine

Hello everybody,
has someone experience to share about the use of vdr application inside
freevo?

First of all, I have to install vdr, and use it through xine as output
device, because I only have a budget dvb-t hardware. So I have to
patch xine for it to recognize vdr mrl (as it is explained here:
http://vdr.bluox.org/wiki/index.php/Xine-plugin#Installation). This is
done without problems, because at http://home.vr-web.de/~rnissl/ I can
get the cvs versions of xine-lib and xine-ui that match the given
patch.

My problem is for me to install xine-lib and xine-ui after compilation !
How can I do that, knowing that I already had xine installed before on
my Ubuntu feisty, via apt-get. A simple : sudo make install do not
work (evident, otherwise I wouldn't have wrote this email :-)
I suppose that I should only uninstall xine, but I don't know which
package to remove.
Whatever I do, I have no success, my self compiled xine always crash,
either due to plugins not found, or core dumps, ... ! It is a mess,
and i need some help to continue.

I feel that my problem is the previous "footprint" induced by the
former xine (installed by apt-get), but I don't know how to circumvent
that.

Thanks for your advices.

LOUIS

[Freevo-users] xine or xmms visulization?

2007-06-12 Thread bret clark
Is there way to use xine or xmms visualization when playing music? I did an 
archive search, but didn't really find anything of recent that would be 
useful. xine would probably be best since it is already used today to play 
video's so I'm thinking the current xine python script used to play music 
could be modified to show the visualization on a screen.


Thanks

Re: [Freevo-users] working webradio.fxd?

2007-05-03 Thread bret clark
This is one of my main complaints with webradio. It seems a lot of stations 
change their url's on a fairly regular basis to the point where it feels 
like I'm constantly updating my webradio.fxd, .pls and .m3u files to use the 
new stations with freevo and my roku M500. Very aggravating! I know that 
there is a shoutcast plugin (haven't tried it yet), but it would be nice to 
create a universal webradio plug (not fxd file) which pulls radio stations 
from popular websites such as shoutcast, vtuner, live365, etc. that you 
could select and play.  Basically you would add the websites that it would 
pull from and present a list of stations of interest. Something similar to 
the rhapsody plugin that I've used.

My 2 cents.

I can't say I'm 100% sure of what you are trying to do, but I used the 
MPLAYER_SOFTWARE_SCALER to add some mplayer audio encoding using the option 
-ac hwdts,hwac3,


MPLAYER_SOFTWARE_SCALER = "-subfont-text-scale 5 -ac hwdts,hwac3, -fs -sws 2

Long time ago I used the attached shell script to start mplayer with
different options based on the number of channels identified by mplayer.

I think it could be used as a base or idea to workaround this problem.

[Freevo-users] Freevo 1.5.0 brain dead regarding Xine?

2004-08-31 Thread Bret Clark
Every time I run Freevo it tells me the version of Xine needs to be > 0.9.21 
and thus deactivates the plugin. The problem is I have Xine 0.9.22 installed 
and shows version 0.9.22 if I run it manually. What is Freevo doing that 
makes it think Xine is not the latest version? And how do I fix it?
