Hi I tried getting Freevo to run on dfbmga, but never figured out how to get around the pygame errors I saw when Freevo tried to start up.
On the other hand, mplayer worked without problems on dfbmga - and getting mplayer to work was really the primary concern, since it takes care of playback judder of movies recorded with the PVR250. So instead of fighting the silly errors, I tried to get Freevo running on fbdev while mplayer is running on dfbmga. However, to get it to work, I need Freevo to issue a fbset command after mplayer quits. There's already the OSD_SDL_EXEC_AFTER_STARTUP option, but it's only executed after Freevo starts up. Not when the OSD is restored after mplayer has quit. Making the below change to osd.py, and setting STOP_OSD_WHEN_PLAYING in my local_conf.py has fixed the problem. Could the change be included in the CVS tree for the next release? I'll describe my setup on the wiki in a couple of days.
