Hi,
I'm running the debian unstable version of freevo (from the
freevo.sourceforge.net apt repository), with a very recent cvs snapshot of
ivtv, on a pvr250. It's a pIII/600 machine, with a geforce4mx. I'm
using the svideo out.
I got live TV working by adding
plugin.activate('tv.ivtv_basic_tv')
to local_conf.py
It works, I'm able to change channels and do everything else it seems I
should be able to.
However, the video looks like frames are being dropped. Not a ton of
them, but enough to make it look jerky (and fairly unwatchable). It's
very steady rate, it doesn't appear to speed up/slow down.
ps shows that the command being run is:
/usr/bin/mplayer -vo xv,sdl,x11, -fs -cache 8192 -slave /dev/video0
and running that from the desktop (without freevo) and it plays normally.
mplayer is using about 40-50% cpu in either case.
My only guess is that it has something to do with IVTV_OPTIONS that freevo
is using (it's just the default ones right now) that are different when
done from console, but that's a total guess.
If I record video, it will play back normally without the skipping.
Any ideas about what might be causing the frame skipping?
Thanks!
Moses
