I would recommend using the newer livepause plugin (tv.livepause) rather
the the dvbstreamer specific one. The new livepause plugin is a lot more
refined and uses less CPU. For that you will need the livepause program
(also available from the dvbstreamer sourceforge page).

 plugin_record = plugin.activate('tv.dvbstreamer.record')
You will still need to use this to record though

Re: [Freevo-users] Newbie: Problem with HD channel names

2009-08-30 Thread Paul Rensing
I tracked the problem a little further. The bug is in the simplistic 
TV_CHANNELS_SORT routine which just forces the channel number to be an 
int. There is no protection around that call, so it all fails. If there 
had been protection, my channel list would have been fine except not sorted.

[Freevo-users] Newbie: Problem with HD channel names

2009-08-29 Thread Paul Rensing

Hello,

I am trying to set up Freevo for the first time. I installed 1.9 from 
source and am now trying to set up the TV viewing.


I am in the US and I have an HDHomeRun tuner (external box with Ethernet 
interface). I have my XMLTV feed set up. Where I am failing is that my 
channel names are like 2-1, etc. Freevo fails with the message:


   Error in TV.xml file, unable to set TV_CHANNELS
   invalid literal for int() with base 10: '2-2'

I looked through the Web site, but did not see anything about this. How 
does one configure HD stations?


Also, if anyone has a configuration using an HDHomeRun, how exactly does 
one configure the tuners in Freevo?


   Thanks,

 Paul Rensing

You need to add dvbstreamer (http://sourceforge.net/projects/dvbstreamer/) to 
Freevo as a plugin and then use it to scan for the channels in your area. The 
command in terminal is setupdvbstreamer -A channels.conf. Next run this 
commmand, dvbctrl lsservices -- -id| grep -v  ^... This will capture 
the channels available. Next, copy and paste your channel list to your 
local_conf.py.Here's my list as an example of what it should look like.

TV_CHANNELS = [('CBS2 CH','CBS2-HD','00cf.03e7.0001'),
   ('NBC5-DT','NBC5-HD','0233.03e9.0005'),
   ('WLS-DT','WLS-DT-7.1','02bd.03eb.0001'),
   ('Livwell','Livwell-7.2','02bd.03eb.0002'),
   ('WLS-SD','WLS-SD-7.3','02bd.03eb.0003'),

   ('WFLD DT','WFLD DT-32.1','023f.03f5.0003'),
   ('WPWR-DT','WPWR-DT-50.1','02b7.0459.0003')
 ]
AUDIO_DEVICE ='hw.0,0'
plugin.remove('tv.mplayer')
plugin.remove('tv.generic_record')
plugin_record = plugin.activate('tv.dvbstreamer.record')
plugin.activate('tv.dvbstreamer.live_pause')
LIVE_PAUSE_BUFFER_SIZE=(6.25, 30 * 60)
LIVE_PAUSE_BUFFER_PATH='/home/tvphil/freevo/live.buf'
TV_RECORDFILE_SUFFIX='.ts'
TV_VIDEO_GROUPS = [
 VideoGroup(vdev='0',
group_type='dvb',

record_group=0)
]

Hope this helps.
