Hi guys, I am trying to set up DVB tv in freevo and I think I am very close. Hopefully once I get this part of the Freevo box running I can leave it alone for a while, keep the wife happy, and stop nagging this user list. I am running Arch 64 bit if it makes any difference. I have set up a channels.conf file in my ./Mplayer directory. I also have changed a few settings in local_conf.py as well as obvious freevo.conf editing. However, I think the issue lies in the fact that mplayer is not correctly set up to play dvb streams. When tuning in to a digital station using mplayer i get the following:
[la...@wetland /]$ mplayer "dvb://WIN HD" MPlayer 1.0rc2-4.3.2 (C) 2000-2007 MPlayer Team CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 3.00GHz (Family: 15, Model: 4, Stepping: 4) CPUflags: MMX: 1 MMX2: 1 3DNow: 0 3DNow2: 0 SSE: 1 SSE2: 1 Compiled with runtime CPU detection. 115 audio & 237 video codecs mplayer: could not connect to socket mplayer: No such file or directory Failed to open LIRC support. You will not be able to use your remote control. Playing dvb://WIN HD. dvb_tune Freq: 184625000 Exiting... (End of file) And that is all... No picture or any Mplayer window. How can I make it play the transport stream? However, I can tzap a channel with the -r switch and then run: mplayer /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 This results in the channel showing in an mplayer screen. What are the correct local_conf.py settings for tv as the wiki is not quite up to date on these settings? Do I need to configure Mplayer some more? FYI, when i select a channel from the tv guide in freevo I get a blank screen and then the display returns to the tv guide. Cheers guys.
