Re: [Freevo-users] FXD command files
Good to know it works, thanks Adam (I've just had a hard drive failure, but
when I'm up and running again I'll give it a try).

Looks like you need to add 2 new variables in your local_conf.py called
COMMAND_SPAWN_WM and COMMAND_KILL_WM
ie.
COMMAND_SPAWN_WM = ''
COMMAND_KILL_WM = ''
These appear to be used to start and stop a window manager using the
sqawnwm tag. You probably don't need this but defining these should allow
you to use the plugin.
What is odd is that the plugin should defined these automatically?! Looks
like another bug to bash.

., 189 becomes 18 or 89) and, although recording starts at the correct time, the wrong channel's program is recorded. Other times, it seems LIRC isn't working correctly and no new channel is tuned via the IRBlaster, so the recording starts at the right time, but for the previously tuned (default) channel so, again, the wrong program is recorded. In the latter situation, I have to reboot my system so LIRC can load correctly. I don't know if the problem is with LIRC, the script, the IRBlaster, or the cable box. Probably each of those at some time or another. That's why I was hoping to eliminate all these variables by getting a new card with clear QAM support so the TV card itself can tune to the correct station without dependency on other devices and software. Unfortunately, my cable company's decision to remove most of the channels on their line-up from clear QAM has thwarted my plans. My rough guess is that it's 95%+ reliable, but it's very frustrating when there's a special program I want (worse yet, a program that my wife really wants) and it's the very one that records incorrectly. Life was much simpler before the cable company switched to digital signals and you could have your TV or TV card tune to the correct channel without being forced to use their box.

Hi Bill, I use pykaraoke. It has a special mini frontend that's perfect - it launches full screen and is just simply a list of all the karaoke songs in the database (you can set this and update it from the main program) - the user just scrolls through the songs and selects whichever one they want. My requirements are for a robust system which family friends or guests can use intutively with a wiimote without (accidentally or intentionally) breaking out of freevo and into other parts of the system, so this integrates very easily. Now back to my problem, Francisco - is there anything you can think of that I might not have done with my shell scripts that may be causing me problems?

Is it possible to run fxd command files from within the standard menu
structure? I have quite a few running from the main menu now (internet,
karaoke, the cheese photo application) and I wanted to clean it up by
inserting some within the menu items (ie: karaoke within music, the cheese
app within photos), there's not a whole lot of documentation on fxd files
and I've been fiddling with them for a while with no success, is this
possible at all?
Yes!.
I've added a Spotify entry within the Music main menu. First I've written
this fxd file:
spotify.fxd:
?xml version=1.0 ?
freevo
command title=Spotify
cmdwine C:\Archivos de programa\Spotify\spotify.exe/cmd
stoposd /
/command
/freevo
And then, I've added the fxd file to the AUDIO_ITEMS section in
local_conf.py:
AUDIO_ITEMS = [
('Infantil', '/datos/musica/infantil'),
('Pop', '/datos/musica/pop'),
('Otras', '/datos/musica/otras'),
'/opt/config/freevo/fxd/spotify.fxd',
]
I also have a Picasa entry in the Photo menu, though, instead of adding the
fxd file to the IMAGES section in local_conf.py, I've included it in my
image directory:
picasa.fxd:
?xml version=1.0 ?
freevo
command title=Editar fotos en Picasa
cmd/opt/config/freevo/fxd/picasa.cmd/cmd
nostdout /
/command
/freevo
picasa.cmd:
#!/bin/sh
picasa
true
local_conf.py:
IMAGE_ITEMS = [ ('Ver Fotos', '/datos/Escritorio/fotos'),
# '/opt/config/freevo/fxd/picasa.fxd',
]
In /datos/Escritorio/fotos I have a directory named fotos and the fxd file
picasa.fxd. As you can see, I previously added the fxd file directly to the
IMAGE_ITEMS section, though now I've commented out the entry. Nevertheless,
both approachs work flawlessly for me.
