I seem to be getting there with a setup that might be close to what I had with MP on windows.
I am trying to set up livepause with mplayer on my freevo box and have issues with seeking in a livepause stream.
So far I have a fairly minimal ~/.freevo/local_conf.py as follows
CONFIG_VERSION = 5.27
plugin.remove('tv.mplayer')
plugin.activate('tv.livepause')
LIVE_PAUSE2_BUFFER_SIZE= 2048 # Size of the live buffer in MB. (Default 2GB)
LIVE_PAUSE2_BUFFER_PATH='/home/freevo/.freevo/tmp/live.buf' # Location of the live buffer
LIVE_PAUSE2_PREFERRED_PLAYER= 'mplayer'
SYS_SHUTDOWN_CONFIRM = 0
ROM_DRIVES = [('/mnt/dvd', '/dev/sr0', 'DISC')]
START_FULLSCREEN_X = 1
FREEVO_TEMPDIR = '/home/freevo/.frexevo/tmp'
TV_CHANNELS = [
# ( 'XMLTV NAME', 'FREEVO DISPLAY NAME', 'CHANNELS.CONF NAME' ),
( 'abc.hd.net.au', 'ABC HD', 'ABC HDTV'),
( 'abc.net.au', 'ABC', 'ABC1'),
( 'abc.hd.net.au', 'ABC2', 'ABC2'),
( 'abc.hd.net.au', 'SBS ONE', 'SBS ONE'),
( 'abc.hd.net.au', 'SBS TWO', 'SBS TWO'),
( 'abc.hd.net.au', 'Southern Cross', 'SCTV Hobart'),
( 'abc.hd.net.au', 'SC HD', 'SCTV - HD'),
( 'abc.hd.net.au', 'WIN HD', 'WIN HD'),
( 'abc.hd.net.au', 'GO!', 'GO!'),
( 'abc.hd.net.au', 'WIN', 'WIN TELEVISION'),
( 'abc.hd.net.au', 'TDT', 'TDT - SD'),
( 'abc.hd.net.au', 'ONE HD', 'ONE HD Tasmania') ]
TV_VIDEO_GROUPS = [
# Use this group for watching tv
VideoGroup(vdev='0',
group_type='dvb',
desc='Watching Video Group',
) ]
MPLAYER_ARGS = { 'dvd' : '-cache 8192',
'vcd' : '-cache 4096',
'cd' : '-cache 1024 -cdda speed=2',
'tv' : '-nocache',
'ivtv' : '-cache 8192',

'rm' : '-cache 5000 -forceidx',

}
plugin.remove('tv.mplayer')
plugin.activate('tv.livepause')

}
I haven't bothered to get xmltv up and running yet obviously coz my xmltv names for channels aren't properly coded.
The issue is, when I try to watch tv that is fine. I can even pause tv which is cool (in mplayer, or xine). However, rewinding is weird.
Left key seems to create a bookmark, but i can't navigate back and forth in the stream when it is pressed. It just seems to pause the stream for a sec, then continues on from that point. Once I press left or right (which is worse) the stream gets jittery.
Is this something to do with the ip of where the stream is being sent to.
I am running Arch.
Cheers, Larry
