Re: [mythtv-users] DVD playback on macos X
I just use the Apple DVD player. With the Keyspan Express Remote, it's great. I use mplayer for anything in mythvideo.

For some reason it lists as 0.18.2 even though there isn't an official 0.18.2 version.

It sounds like we have a mixture of people who it works for and who it doesn't. I did compile a new 0.18.1 with plugins today. I replaced the one on my site with that build. I tested it on my Mac Mini and it worked like a charm. That probably doesn't say much though, since the last one did too.. For those of you who can't get it working, let me know. I'd be interested to see the output of uname -a, env, set, contents of .profile and others... The more information the better. Anyway, if anybody wants to try again, the new build of 0.18.1 is @ http://www.thesniderpad.com/index.php? option=com_remository&Itemid=36&func=select&id=2 Feedback as usual is always appreciated. ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users

Re: [mythtv-users] OSX frontend mouse?
What do you use for a Mac remote? I bought the keyspan remote and don't like it too much. very small and flimsy feeling... ToddI also use the Keyspan remote. But I had a Sony learning remote so I programmed the buttons from the Keyspan into the Sony. Still not enough buttons, but not as flimsy...___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
Re: [mythtv-users] OS X & MythFrontend 0.18.1 with plugins
Thanks for downloading the binary. I'm very interested in your feedback, if a build doesn't work, I'll want to pull it off the site.. As for me, I use mplayer, but until recently, DVD VOB's with AC3 had noticeable static feedback. However, I found that you can download the CVS version of mplayer and it compiles just fine on MacOSX. It's much faster than previous versions (Uses the CoreVideo services now) and there is NO static feedback. I don't know this for certain, but I installed mplayer first via fink (to get a lot of the dependencies, may or may not have been necessary) then downloaded the CVS version and compiled and installed to /usr/local/mplayer instead of /usr/local/bin. My Video player settings are setup as /usr/local/mplayer/bin/mplayer %s. My .mplayer/config contents are: subcc=1 fs=1 I like the closed captions and full screen mode... Never used Xine on Mac, found a link to a binary on Wikipedia, but could never get it to download. To be honest, I just use the Apple DVD Player, no offense to the developers of MythDVD.

Re: [mythtv-users] fc4.ppc, Mac Mini and MythTV
Do keep in mind, the frontend software that gets compiled will be useless against a 0.18.1 backend because of the protocol mismatch The osx-packager script has options for a specific revision or branch so you can easily/hopefully build a frontend for any arbitrary backend version. In any case mythmusic isn't currently one of the supported plugins for osx (they're mythcontrols, mythdvd, mythflix, mythgallery, mythnews, mythvideo & mythweather). The last time someone mused about this on the lists they were thinking of integrating myth with itunes in some way. That was quite a while ago. Just my two cents, but I run the OSX frontend on my Mac Mini with great success. I modified the main menu xml file and added an option that launches itunes via a command "open -a iTunes".I use the USB Keyspan Remote to control both MythTV and iTunes. I programmed one of the keys on the remote to do a "command+tab" so that I can cycle between MythTV and iTunes. But it works great... ___ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
