[Freevo-devel] No DBCS support???

2004-06-17 Thread Zhenxin Li
Hello, It seems that strings localized to other locales are processed as non unicode strings in the freevo python code. This causes the DBCS strings failed to display. In xml_skin.py, all strings read from xml files are transformed to non unicode by string.encode. I think it should be

I made a mistake. The strings read from xml files are unicode strings. But when the drawstringframed function in osd.py draws the localized strings. They are DBCS string instead of unicode strings. When and where are they converted to non unicode? Regards, Zhenxin Li : [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi alan, Great idea you had there, what about trying to communicate with mldonkey directly via it's GUI or telnet protocol? It has an integrated web-interface, so maybe you could sneak some code from there or other open-source interfaces existing today! I'd love to control my beloved donkey from

[Freevo-devel] FreeBSD-specific mmpython patches.

2004-06-17 Thread Lewis Thompson
Hi, I emailed these a while ago (I think) but I wasn't subscribed then. I've made a few changes to mmpython to get it to work properly under FreeBSD. I've done a little testing on Linux and it seems they work fine. It would be nice if somebody could glance over them and tell me what they

[Freevo-devel] Failure to detect new disc.

2004-06-17 Thread Lewis Thompson
Hi, In my never-ending attempt to get DVD playback working properly under FreeBSD (using mmpython 0.4.3 (with patches) and Freevo 1.5-rc3) I've come across another problem. For some reason when I insert a disc Freevo spins it up and seems to do lots of stuff with it but fails to change the

2004-06-17 Thread Dirk Meyer
Hi, ok, I guess it's time for the 1.5.0 release. Since we did some changes after the last rc, I plan to make one last rc this weekend. After that, no new features or cleanups are allowed, only bug fixes. If nothing bad happens, 1.5 will come out one week later. Before the next rc, I want: o

Hello, Trying to retrieve the APOD I received this error pasted at the end of the message. I think that an error reading from a socket is not a fatal error and that it should raise a popup telling the user that it could not get the image from the Internet. Traceback (most recent call last):

[Freevo-devel] FreeBSD-specific freevo patch (for DVD playback).

2004-06-17 Thread Lewis Thompson
Hi, This is a pretty ugly hack to get DVD playback working on FreeBSD. The problem is basically that Freevo does not ever recognise that the CD drive state has changed and so the startup state of a CD drive stays the same. If there was a Kill Bill DVD it stays listed as that regardless of

Hi, I noticed that there is an off-by-one bug in the manual record input screen. For example, today's June 18, 2004. The start and stop dates will show July 18, 2004. Also, is there a way to force the Modify start/stop time menu to jump to the closest current time instead of starting from 0:00?
