Me too.

I don't have this problem because I patched mplayer for the swiss
channels and don't use mencoder any more for recording :)

Will you raise it as a bug report on sf.net

Re: [Freevo-users] How to use freq's for TV in framebuffer

2007-01-23 Thread Michel Hoogervorst


Duncan,

When opening a station from the tv guide for watching tv, I see this in the
main-500.log:

ChildApp.__init__(), pid=3266, app= /usr/bin/mplayer -vo fbdev -ao alsa -fs
-autosync 100 -nolirc -autoq 100 -screenw 800 -screenh 600 -fs -slave
-nocache tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:freq=
208.000:device=/dev/video0:input=0:norm=PAL:width=640:height=480:outfmt=yuy2
, poll=-1
1169584104.61: started tv app

The recordserver seems to have it's own log, so I already had this in the
recordserver-500.log :

2007/01/19 21:24 CET [*RecordServer*] popen  /usr/bin/mencoder tv:// -tv
driver=v4l:input=0:norm=pal:channel=25:chanlist=nl-multikabel:width=320:height=240:outfmt=yuy2:device=/dev/video0:adevice=/dev/dsp:audiorate=32000:forceaudio:forcechan=1:buffersize=64
-ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg4:vbitrate=1200:keyint=30 -oac mp3lame
-lameopts br=128:cbr:mode=3 -ffourcc divx -endpos 49 -o
/home/michel/Video/Opnames/01-19_21:24_Handmatige_opname.avi

As you can see, Freevo gives the option "freq=" to the mplayer command, but
the mencoder command gets "channel=25:chanlist=nl-multikabel".  Since the
nl-multikabel chanlist only exists in Freevo (because I put it in myself),
the mencoder program doesn't know what to do with it, and just uses the
frequency the tuner was already set to.

Note that the mencoder_cmd was not set in local_conf.py when i got this line
in the log.

Looks like a bug to me... any ideas?

I sounds like a bug. There are two different modules for capture and
playback.

Would you enable CHILDAPP_DEBUG=1 and may be DEBUG=1, they will report
the command line that is being used and then send me what it says.

You will need to look in the main-X.log, in /tmp/freevo or
/var/log/freevo.

Cool, when you have finished may you would like to make a patch and add

Re: [Freevo-users] How to use freq's for TV in framebuffer

2007-01-19 Thread Michel Hoogervorst


Ok, yesterday, I 'accidentally' spotted the freq.py file, and tried to put
it in there.
So I opened the freq.py, and put this in it:

CHANLIST = {
 .
"nl-multikabel" : dict(PAL_MULTIKABEL),
}


And I declared the PAL_MULTIKABEL like this:

PAL_MULTIKABEL = [
   ("10", 208000 ), # Nederland 1
   ("11", 216000 ), # Nederland 2
   ("12", 224000 ), # Nederland 3
   ("25", 504000 ), # RTL 4
   ("28", 528000 ), # RTL 5
   ("66", 832000 ), # MTV
]


After that, I edited the freevo.conf and changed the chanlist from
europe-west to nl-multikabel.
Next, in local_conf.py I edited the TV_CHANNELS, to use channel numbers
instead of names pointing to the items in FREQUENCY_TABLE, and I commented
out the FREQUENCY_TABLE list.  So now it looks like this:

TV_CHANNELS = [
   ('1.tvgids.nl', 'Nederland 1', '10'),
   ('2.tvgids.nl', 'Nederland 2', '11'),
   ('3.tvgids.nl', 'Nederland 3', '12'),
   ('4.tvgids.nl', 'RTL 4', '25'),
   ('5.tvgids.nl', 'RTL 5', '28'),
   ('25.tvgids.nl', 'MTV', '66'),
]

...AND IT WORKS!!  Frequencies with mplayer!! :-D


So, now my next project is to enable the record server to see if it works
with mencoder as well. :-)


2007/1/3, Michel Hoogervorst <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:


Hi,

I would like to know if it is possible to use frequencies instead of
channels with TV on a framebuffer.
When I manually type 'mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:freq=208' everything
works, but how to set this in my Freevo configuration?

According to the Wiki it's not possible for watching, and there's a hack
provided for recording with mencoder, but since that information is already
nearly 2 years old, I hoped there was a solution for this in the meantime?

The FREQUENCY_TABLE thing in local_conf doesn't work because Mpayer
doesn't like using both a channel and a frequency.
