Hi,
Hi!
I have been hacking on a Freevo-like project in my spare time, and some of my recent work has been to incorporate time shifting with live TV in MPlayer. I thought perhaps Freevo might make use of some of the code or ideas (which are mostly not really new or my own), so I've done up a page discussing the approach/implementation here:
http://sault.org/mebox/livetv.php
Ok, that's impressive!
I've released some demo code that seems to work reliably on my ivtv- based card. It expects an MPEG-PS stream, which can be gotten conveniently from /dev/video0, but the design also allows for the stream to be read via pipe, so in theory it should work with any v4l2/bttv card using mp1e. (I haven't tested this at all, and I'm curious to hear how or if it works.)
I wonder if it will work with the PS from vdr-streamdev...
You can download the code here:

There's also some other code/screenshots on that site. Freevo might also benefit from the bmovl2 patch (which I'd discussed some months ago here).
Yes, how about a bmovl2 plugin anyone? Jason, can you make available any bmovl2 controlling python code you have? Also, the canvas looks interesting as well.
I will have to find some time for hacking this weekend for sure. The best way for me to test the timeshifting stuff will be to get it working inside Freevo so if anyone else is working on that please let me know so I don't duplicate effort. :)
