First off your remote problem is wither because of a miscalibration of your
remote or the remote you chose to use is causing the problem.  I have no
problems with my IR control at all.

I also cannot get the dxr3 to completely work.   I have mplayer working and
playing to the dxr3 from the command line, and freevo showing it's OSD on
the dxr3 output perfectly...

but when I launch anything that starts mplayer inside freevo it crashes
mplayer and freevo with "video device not available" as freevo is not
letting go of the dxr3 for mplayer and when it comes back freevo freaks out
also.

Downgrade to an earlier freevo will probably fix it but from what I can tell
dxr3 is broken in 1.3.4.....

I have a geforce2 with tv out coming in the mail ($5.00 from ebay!) as the
dxr3 is becoming more and more of a kludge/hack... I think I need to get
away from it so I can reproduce the box for friends....

Subject: [Freevo-users] DXR3 problem & more


Hi everybody!

I've tried to get freevo working with my Hollywood+ card for several 
days now but I haven't succeeded so far. I learned from a posting
that the binary releases do not support the dxr3 anymore. Neverthe-
less I replaced the libSDL with the one supporting dxr3 hardware.
As you can see below the 'osd.py' seems to make troubles. Although 
mplayer does play videos via the dxr3 card the freevo menu is always
displayed on the monitor only.
Is the error because of the rpm package? If yes, what's wrong with
the compiling process?

Apart from this problem there are some more which I want to list here:
1. playing audio cd's in freevo doesn't work, audio cd is not found
    (mplayer cdda://1 does play the first track with stuttering and
    xmms even flawlessly!)
    no problem with data cd's, those are mounted successfully
2. menu browsing with a remote control is a bit tricky because of high
    sensibility (if I press the 'down' button it often happens that it
    scrolls to fast, so another menu entry is selected - maybe due to
    caching?)
3. Does freevo support a local cddb/freedb database for lookup?

BTW: I use Suse Linux 8.2, just in case something's works differently
      with that distro.

Thanks for your help in advance!
Jerry
