Reply to my own post, bad I know :)
I've modified /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/freevo/tv/plugins/xine.py
(I use xine to watch TV).
I changed line 125 in the def Play method to call os.system("rmmod
dvb_usb_dib0700") to remove the module, then later in the method
os.system("modprobe dvb_usb_dib0700") before the actualy xine command is
issued.
However it hasn't actually done anything :)
Is there another step I need to do, compiling the code? is python real
time interpreted or will I need to restart freevo before I can see it work?
Also, any comment on if I've done this in the right place?
Thanks in advance.
