Hi,
the two messages do not mean anything harmful. The first is only an information. The
second just tells you that your remote control won't work (if you have one...).
You also do not need a TV card to make freevo work.
Freevo always writes some log files. On my system, they can be found in /tmp/freevo
and they are called main-0.log, main-1000.log or similar.
To make freevo more verbose, find the line
DEBUG = 0
in config.py and set it to
DEBUG = 1 (higher numbers mean more output)
config.py is in /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/freevo on my system, but that may
differ.
Kind regards,
Thorsten
