Can anyone help me understand how freevo communicates channel changes to
tvtime?  I have both freevo and tvtime working independently.  I can
change channels fine in tvtime and my console from freevo shows it
changing channels as it should from keyboard input.  

Problem is, tvtime is apparently not receiving the signals to change
channels, so somehow I've got to get tvtime to recognize and respond to
the requests from freevo.  Everything else (xmltv, sound, movies) is
working fine, but I can't record or watch tv through freevo because
freevo isn't taking control of channels.  Mplayer isn't working at all
for me as a freevo plugin.

I've looked at the python scripts that control tvtime, and I see a lot
of stuff in there about channels, but I'm not a programmer, and I don't
think I will do much good mucking around there.

Details from a previous post below,

Jim
