I have a hack to fix this
/usr/X11R6/bin/xset s off -display :0
/usr/X11R6/bin/xset s reset -display :0
that should do it, the first one turns suspend off, the second resets
the display so it comes back on.
hope this helps

I think the lcd plugin including track length, position, name etc... would be best when playing a movie but If you look at a DVD player one issue that always bugs me is that they insist on having a constantly moving/flickering playing icon. This is stupid and distracting. the screen should chan

So the question is.. how much would it take? What's a ball park
figure?
At least you have to let me chew on it.
Personally I'm not sure. I can't do it as I don't have the time.
However it would be an interesting task to do as I've only recently
learned python and I'm learning the freevo co

On the themeing side of things, I imagine that this could best be
achieved by setting a colour for new items, and maybe a different colour
for unplayed items, and fading that colour (opacity change) based on the

I once wrote a small C tool which detected C insertion for a DVD ripper
in gtk2. It used a fairly basic ioctl call to detect that the disk had
been inserted, I imagine that this can also be done in perl/python.
There is lots of documentation on how to do this in C on the net, try
searching google f
On the subject of pc-to-tv adapters, I used one I got from maplin
