Hi! I use freevo 1.7.3 in ubuntu feisty to watch dvb via mplayer. I've encountered a weird problem when using freevo with the -fs switch. After starting mplayer once for dvb and exiting (ESC) it's not possible to watch tv again in the same freevo session. "Play" on channel menu just returns to freevo. Restarting freevo gives you again one shot at watching tv. This problem doesn't exist when starting freevo from gnome for example.
Debug logging shows that subsequent mplayer tv-watching sessions end up in: Failed to open dvb://THE_CHANNEL. I've run "ps -ef" before and after closing mplayer. When running freevo in "fs" mode there are two processes that start when starting mplayer but don't die with it: [kdvb-fe-0] [saa7134[0] dvb] <-- the driver of my dvb-tuner The same processes are there when running freevo under gnome but they die when mplayer dies. Any thoughts on this? - Jaakko ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: The Future of Linux Business White Paper from Novell.
