There does appear to be some issue though if you do anything major with the disk that is being used as the buffer (ie unzip, apt-get update, yum update etc. Run 'freevo plugins - -i tv.plugins.livepause' for more details on how to setup the plugin.

What this means is: can mplayer do time-shifting? I don't think that it can so you can't use mplayer for this. However what is possible is that the IVTV driver writes an mpeg-ps stream so it is possible to write the incoming mpeg stream to disk and use mplayer (with small or no cache) to play the stream. This means quite a bit of housekeeping of files which can be tricky. Does this answer the question? Duncan -- Come build with us!

Oops... Is it an IVTV card? if so, then there is a way to do pause with the ivtv.xine plugin .. Cheers, Bernie -- Come build with us!

I thought dvbstreamer only supports, well, dvb cards. :) I didn't find any hint that the pvr-150 is supported by dvdstreamer. Am i wrong? Cheers, Steph. -- Come build with us!

I have been using dvbstreamer to stream of my DVB card to livepause and have been playing the result with xine (mplayer works too, but is not as good as xine). Too find out how to do this look under the documentation in the Plugins/TVPlugins section. --> http://doc.freevo.org/TvPlugins Cheers, Bernie -- Come build with us!
