there is no timeshifting code in freevo right now.

i use an 250 and epia10k too and found the recordserver looping in the background to be a problem during playback of full pal mpeg2.

to "fix" i added the following in recordserver.py line 999 (just before the loop starts)
import os
os.nice(19)


so the if main looks like this:
if __name__ == '__main__':
   import traceback
   import time
   import os
   os.nice(19)
   while 1:
       try:
           start = time.time()
           main()
           break
       except:
           traceback.print_exc()
           if start + 10 > time.time():
               print 'server problem, sleeping 1 min'
               time.sleep(60)

this will set the priority/niceness of the recordserver daemon to very nice and thus not eating cpu cycles necessary for playback...

timeshift and recording-while-watching will work smooth if (hopefully soon) a plugin for hw decoding comes out :)

Hi!

After getting my pvr250 working with ivtv I noticed that while "mplayer
/dev/video0" gives a smooth picture the video in freevo is jittering. I
assume that the ivtv plugin in freevo save the video for timeshifting
but I did not find an option to disable it.

I don't want timeshifting because the vie epia 10k is no slow for it. I
just want a digital video recorder without timeshifting.

Regards,
Johannes
