I figured out my problem, just for future reference... To use freevoweb, I did these changes.

Added these two lines to me /etc/rc.d/rc.local" (Slackware)
/usr/local/freevo/helpers/webserver_init &
/usr/local/freevo/helpers/record_server_init &

The *_init scripts are meant to run from the init process (/etc/inittab), however the way you are calling them from rc.local is acceptable, those scripts have no 'stop' argument though.


The order seems to matter.

Uncommented these three lines"
plugin.activate('www')

If you start webserver on system startup then you don't need to run it as a plugin, so you can comment this line again. If you try to start it as a plugin as well as on system startup the plugin one will fail because the port (8080) will be in use.


WWW_PORT = 8080
WWW_USERS = { "login_name" : "login_password" }
#Change the name and pass in the quotes to anything you would like.

Created these directories:
/var/log/freevo/
/var/cache/freevo/

Ahh, yes, those directories are important. I will have to check if I hardcoded those values somewhere (I hope not!) and if so use the one that the config module provides.


P.S. Any way to play a start a recorded program from the web-
interface?

Sorry, not yet. It would be nice if in the future the web interface has much of the same functions as the TV interface so you could start videos or music from another machine like this, or even use a browser plugin to watch a video that way. Related to that there is now an icecast plugin to play music remotely.


I have been meaning to make some documentation on the webserver and record server and will get to that soon.
