We finally got a Sat dish put up to get English TV in Italy.
I have a pci dvb-s card that works more or less with freevo. The
dish is pointing at only the UK Satellite, so will only receive those
programmes - ie, not the Italian Free to Air channels, hence the
second question.
What I would like to know is:
1. Is it possible to have two xmltv sources (tv_grab_uk_rt) and
(tv_grab_it) into Freevo?
I don't see why not. You'd just append the output of one onto the
other. It would mean that you couldn't use freevo's internal tv_grab
helper though unless you want to add support to it :)
Rob mentioned tv_cat which does the job nicely.
2. Can I mix a dvb input with a tv card at the same time?
AFAIK not in 1.5 but you will be able to in v2. There is one option
that will work and that is you can use one as your recording device
and one as your viewing device.
Not really what I was after, as the Sat is pointing at UK TV, and the tv
card has Italian.. Maybe I'll look at the source and see if it can be
hacked... :-)
I have commented out the old TV Card settings is local_conf.py
As an aside, I need to run the output of TV.xml through sed to change
all the UTC references to +0000 to get the web interface working and
the correct time as my pc is set on CET.
To follow up my own post, in case someone is searching an archive. I
have managed to get this working thanks to

Anyway, it required the mplayer patch described above, and found here:
http://www.xiaprojects.com/www/manuali/freevo/mplayer.py
and the following changes to local_conf.py
VCR_CMD = (CONF.mencoder + ' ' +
'"%(channel)s" ' +

it here

My xmltv settings are handled by a script as follows:
#/bin/bash
/usr/bin/tv_grab_uk_rt >/tmp/listings
cat /tmp/listings | sed 's|UTC|+0000|g;' >/tmp/listings.uk
/usr/bin/tv_grab_it --slow >/tmp/listings.it
/usr/bin/tv_cat /tmp/listings.uk /tmp/listings.it >/tmp/TV.xml
cp -f /tmp/TV.xml /mnt/media/tv.xmltv
(nb, the tv.xmltv is to copy the info to my dreambox - a linux based sat
set top box.)
/etc/freevo/freevo.conf
has:
mencoder = /usr/bin/record.sh
Where record.sh is:
#!/bin/bash
CANALE="tv://$1"
cat ~/.mplayer/channels.conf |grep "$1" && CANALE="dvb://$1"
echo "$1 $2 $3 $CANALE" >> /tmp/registra.log
/usr/bin/aumix -l R -l 90
exec mencoder "$CANALE" -o "$3" -endpos $2 -ovc lavc -lavcopts\

:adevice=/dev/dsp:audiorate=32000:forceaudio:forcechan=1:buffersize=64
(Sorry for the formatting above, the mencoder line is all one.)
(the aumix command selects the right channel to record, as it didn't
seem to work without it.)
Hope this helps someone else.
