[Freevo-users] How do I configure mplayer settings?

2003-09-03 Thread Jim Duda
I have freevo installed and it basically works.  I'm having trouble
using the freevo version of mplayer.  It simply doesn't play my
avi files in the same way as the normal mplayer, which I built and
installed separately, from the the unix command line.

How can I tweak the mplayer parameters used by freevo?

Am I supposed to put options in .mplayer/config?  Can anyone
point me to where the docs are on the syntax for these options?

I've struck out searching for answers.

Thanks,

Jim Duda

[Freevo-users] Timeshift/mp1e -- a/v sync problems after v4l2 upgrade.

2003-09-04 Thread Jim Duda
Dave,

I've spent a lot of time trying to get mp1e to record properly outside
of freevo.  I've never been able to get the a/v sync correct in mp1e.
If you look at the chatter on nvrec-devel on sourceforge, you'll find
this has always been a problem.  The claim is that if you ever
get a/v sync to work, you're just damn lucky.

I have a post in there and the developer gave me some pointers
as to where in the code things could be hacked.  I struck out.

I did find that using ALSA instead of OSS had some improvement,
but it eventually when out of sync.

Did you ever get mp1e from CVS to have good sync?  If you
were using an older version of mp1e, my only suggestion is
to go back.

I starting using nvrec from CVS instead of mp1e, and the a/v
sync is perfect.  Too bad because mp1e is really fast, has
good quality, and the file sizes are small relative to other
encoders.

[Freevo-users] How do I configure mplayer settings?

2003-09-04 Thread Jim Duda
Thanks, i found the MPLAYER_ARGS in freevo_config.py and cloned
the section in local_config.py.

MPLAYER_DEBUG = 1

MPLAYER_ARGS = { 'dvd': '-cache 8192',
 'vcd': '-cache 4096',
 'cd' : '-cache 500 -cdda speed=1',
 'tv' : '-nocache',
 'avi': '-nocache -fs -idx -quiet -af volume=-10:s -display 
:0 -x 800 -y 600',
 'rm' : '-cache 5000 -forceidx',
 'default': '-cache 5000'
 }

What I don't see are the changes I want in either the /var/log/freevo or 
the mplayer
debug logs.  For example, I don't get the quiet or nocache options.

Freevo Log

I know that mplayer finds my file to be an avi file; from mlayer log

Cache fill:  0.00% (0 bytes)AVI file format detected.

I suspect that freevo doesn't know it's an avi file, as such, doesn't use 
my
entry in local_config.py.

[Freevo-users] file_ops plugin

2003-09-04 Thread Jim Duda
I have these options in my local_config.py

plugin.activate('file_ops')
plugin.activate('df')
plugin.activate('mixer')
plugin.remove('plugin_tv')

When freevo starts up, I get the following messages.

failed to load plugin file_ops
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File src/plugin.py, line 262, in init
exec('import %s' % module)
  File string, line 1, in ?

However, if I use the E key on any filename, I get the next
window which allows me to delete, etc.

Do I need to worry about this?

[Freevo-users] Icons vs. Lists in 1.3.4

2003-09-04 Thread Jim Duda
I just upgraded from version 1.3.2 from 1.3.4.  The new look and feel
is slick, however, I have one complaint.

When I view my MP3 file directory now, I get icons instead of
text names.  When i select the icon, the text name appears
above the icon.  The files in the Movies directory appear okay.

I would prefer to have the list of text names.

What controls this?  I cannot figure it out.

 Jim,

 It's a known issue.

 You need to use the system python package to compile *.pyo files (done by
 the make install step). if you change the variable passed to --compile
 to 1, then it'll only generate *.pyc files and that should work fine with
 the runtime supplied freevo_python.

[Freevo-users] Help with Mplayer Options

2003-09-06 Thread Jim Duda
In my local_conf.py file, I have the following line:

MPLAYER_ARGS_DEF = ('-fs -idx -quiet -af volume=-10:s -display :0 -x 800 -y
600')
MPLAYER_ARGS = { 'dvd': '-cache 8192',
 'vcd': '-cache 4096',
 'cd' : '-cache 500 -cdda speed=1',
 'tv' : '-nocache',
 'avi': '-nocache -fs -idx -quiet -af volume=-10:s -display
:0 -x 800 -y 600',
 'rm' : '-cache 5000 -forceidx',
 'default': '-cache 5000'
 }

However, when I use freevo to run mplayer, I see this in the
mplayer_stdout.log file.

mplayer_stdout.log:CommandLine: '-fs' '-idx' '-quiet' '-af' 'volume=-10:s'
'-display' ':0' '-x' '800' '-y' '600' '-slave' '-ao' 'oss:/dev/dsp' '-cache'

'-monitoraspect' '4:3' '/media/videos/Curb_Appeal_-Faux_Front_.avi'

The first fiew CommandLine options match what I have in my local_conf.py,
however, I
cannot figure out where the remaining options are coming from.  My avi files
are not
playing the same way as they do if I run mplayer stand-alone from the
command line.
The volume isn't correct and I get the Xwindows options border around the
video.

Can anyone help?  I'm getting the same results with 1.3.2 and 1.3.4

[Freevo-users] Keyboard Mapping when running Mplayer

2003-11-09 Thread Jim Duda
I'm struggling with the use of keyboard keys when using freevo
with mplayer.

While using the freevo menu, playing audio, images, etc., the
keyboard uses the freevo keybindings as I would expect.  When
I watch videos or movies using mplayer, I need to use the mplayer
keyboard mappings.  I am under the impression that mplayer would
use the keyboard mappings from freevo, since freevo sends the
commands to mplayer since it's operating as a slave to freevo.

This is causing me problems because I'm using an RF remote,
not an LIRC device.  I need to issue commands from the remote
using the a2x program which sends keyboard strokes to the
current X application.  My keyboard strokes appear to be sent to the
mplayer application (which consumes the entire screen) instead
of freevo.

My problem is caused by the fact I cannot determine at the
unix level if freevo is using mplayer for video, images, or audio.
When watching videos, I need to use the mplayer keydefs,
otherwise the freevo keydefs (audio and images).

Does this make sense to anyone?  Is there anyway I can determine
at the unix shell level if mplayer is being used for videos vs audio?

Thanks,

Jim Duda

 For dvd playback, a dvd should not be mounted.

The dvd only get mounted if I select the video_ts entry.  There isn't any

Am I supposed to see Play Title 1, 2, etc, underneath Videos?

 I've upgraded to 1.4, using the runtime.  I just installed a
 DVD reader into my machine.  At first, I found that freevo
 crashed during startup when a DVD was installed in the drive.
  I noticed instructions on the mailing list with a replacement
 for dvdinfo.py which uses mplayer to extract the play titles.
  I followed the instructions.
 
 My question really is what should I expect to see in the
 freevo menu when I have a DVD with multiple titles?  The DVD
 I'm testing with has 7 titles, but the only thing I see in the
 freevo MOVIES menu is video_ts.  What should I expect? 
 Should I expect to see a submenu with the ability to select
 one of the 7 titles?
 
 Other points:
 
 1) The suggested replacement for dvdinfo.py uses the mplayer
 dvd://1000 command, however, my version of mplayer requires
 the title be between 0-99.  Hence, I needed to modify this to
 dvd://99.  This however didn't change the behavior.
 
 2) I backed out the dvdinfo.py change to the original, and the
 original crash problem disappeared.  However, I still only
 have access to video_ts which is the first title.  I don't
 know why the crash problem when away.  I did install
 libdvdread, but continue to use the runtime.

[Freevo-users] Using Xawtv with Freevo?

2003-12-06 Thread Jim Duda
I use an ATI AIW MACH64 card which has a TV tuner.  Unfortunatly, the gatos
capture driver (km) for this card is not 100% V4L1 compatible.  As such, I
cannot
use mplayer to display TV from this card.

I can use xawtv for this card, which works great.

Is there anyway xawtv can be used at the tv display application in freevo?

I'm using a 450Mhz P3 with ATI MACH64 AGP card.  I'm working on playing
DVDs.  I can now succesfully play DVDs using freevo/mplayer using the Xv
video driver coupled with MTRR support.  mplayer dvd://1, etc plays my
dvd just ducky averaging between 50-60% CPU load on my little P3. I can
also play DVDS via freezo using the DVD Title menu.

I'm now trying to get freevo/xine to play the DVDS.  I'd like to take advantage
of the nice DVD menus which xine provides.  

When I use xine -p dvd://, the dvd starts playing, but quickly skips through
a dozen or so sequences of video/audio before getting to the menu.  When
selecting any of the menu entries, xine rapidly plays through the video/audio
and returns to the menu; this all happens in the matter of a couple of seconds.
I'm getting many liba52 warning messages, don't know if this is normal or not.

The console log is below.  I'm just wondering if anyone has experienced
this behavior.  If mplayer can play DVDs on my P3 without any problems,
should I expect the same from xine?

[Freevo-users] Images in DVD Drive

2004-01-14 Thread Jim Duda
Second posting, new information.

Using freevo 1.4.1

My linux computer has both a DVD drive and CDROM drive.
I configure them in local_conf.py as such:

ROM_DRIVES = [ ('/mnt/dvd',   '/dev/dvd',   'DVD'),
   ('/mnt/cdrom', '/dev/cdrom', 'CDROM') ]

I have a CDROM with many jpg images on it.  If I load the
CDROM into the CDROM drive, freevo will allow me to
view them through IMAGES.  If however, I attempt to view
them using the DVD drive, freevo simply says Empty Directory.

I've learned that if I first mount the drive mount /dev/dvd /mnt/dvd
then freevo will display the jpg files in IMAGES just find.  Can
anyone explain why I must manually mount the DVD drive first
but not the CDROM drive?

Thanks.

Jim

[Freevo-users] Re: MPlayer catches keypresses instead of slave mode?

2004-01-16 Thread Jim Duda
I had the same problem.  I ended up rebinding the mplayer
keys using the mplayer input.conf file to match the freevo
bindings.  This ways, the keys always work the same regardless
of whether or not a video is playing.

 Hi,
 I have come across a problem I could not track down yet. It seems like 
mplayer does not really run in slave mode when playing movies, bit it does 
when playing music.

 Normally when playing a movie with freevo, I could use the + and - 
keys on the numpad to increase or decrease the volume. Since a few days, I 
have to press * and / to do so. When playing music, + and - works 
fine.
 It just seems that (when playing movies) mplayer catches the keyboard 
commands directly instead of freevo catching them and sending the commands 
to mplayer. (This is what I assume now, I am not sure if my theories are 
correct.)
 I have switched on the debug output for mplayer. The command line being 
called contains -slave.
 (I have installed freevo a week ago using the debian package.)

 In case nobody knows about this problem: Could someone point me in the 
right direction to track down this problem?

 Kind regards,
   Thorsten

Thanks Mike, that worked.  My camera (Canon PowerShot A230) works with the
plugin,
although, it crashes, when attempting to navigate back from viewing a

I was kinda hoping the plugin would allow me to manage and download the

Thanks for the help.

 You should get a pygphoto.py and a _pygphoto.so. Put them in the
 site-packeges dir for your python install. usually something like
 /usr/lib/python-2.3/site-packages/

 you can then use them after copying them there.

 you should also see a pyphoto.py script in the dir where you compiled
 pygphoto. I used that as a starting point to do some hacking and
 basically figured out for my usb camera that the gp_camera call was
 always failing for me.

[Freevo-users] Trouble with xmame in freevo

2004-03-20 Thread Jim Duda
I've been struggling to get xmame working in freevo.  It works outside
of freevo just fine.

I have these in my local_conf.py file.

DIR_GAMES = [ ('MAME', '/usr/local/share/xmame/roms',
   ('MAME', '/usr/local/bin/xmame.x11', '-fullscreen -modenumber
6',
'/usr/local/share/xmame/shots', None))]
DEBUG = 1

I see the games in the menu, the shots display too.  If I
select a game, the freevo screen disappers, the box stalls
for a few seconds, then returns to the freevo screen.  I get
this in my log files.

Call MAME command : /usr/local/bin/xmame.x11
MameRomList has 4704 items.
Playing:  /usr/local/share/xmame/roms/dkong.zip
Game_Thread::run: GAME OVER
force killing with signal 9

It appears as though freevo thinks the game is done before
it even starts.

How can I debug this?  Any help is appreciated.

Jim

I found my problem.  I had used the example for MAME from freevo_conf.py.
The example has a -fullscreen option.  I've learned this is not a valid option 
for xmame.  I instead needed to use -x11 3 for fullscreen.  
I am up and running.  Thought I'd post my answer for others.

[Freevo-users] Lost Icons after 1.5 Upgrade

2004-03-21 Thread Jim Duda
I upgraded to version 1.5.  All seems to work great, as usual.
I have one problem.  I seem to have lost the Icons which display
next to the titles in the menu.  I really like the icons.

I seem to recall  I had the same problem when I was playing
with the CVS version.  I ended up adding some lines
to an XML file, lines such as image=gant/movie.png.  I'm sure
I can figure out where to do that again, however, I'd really like
to know what the preferred method is.

Should I still expect the Icons?  I was using the blue_round1
skin in version 1.4.1.  Can I carry that skin forward to 1.5 ?

Thanks,

Jim

[Freevo-users] Key mappings problems in 1.5 and CVS

2004-03-28 Thread Jim Duda
I'm having the same problems using both CVS and versions 1.5 with key
mappings.

1) I want to map the 'x' key to the MUTE function.  If I define this in
local_conf.py
KEYMAP[K_x] = 'MUTE'

I get this crash on startup.  This used to work in 1.4.1

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File /usr/local/freevo-1.5-pre1/src/main.py, line 107, in ?
import config
  File /usr/local/freevo-1.5-pre1/src/config.py, line 493, in ?
execfile(overridefile, globals(), locals())
  File ./local_conf.py, line 143, in ?
KEYMAP[K_x] = 'MUTE'
NameError: name 'K_x' is not defined

2) I want to map the CH+/- keys to the LEFT/RIGHT input functions.
I place this in my local_conf.py file.

EVENTS['input']['CH-'] = Event(INPUT_LEFT)
EVENTS['input']['CH+'] = Event(INPUT_RIGHT)

When I drill down an attempt to delete a file, I get the popup window
for OK/CANCEL, however, I cannot use CH-/+ to toggle between
the two for LEFT/RIGHT.  This used to work in 1.4.1.

Can anyone help me out with etiher issue?

Thanks,

Jim

[Freevo-users] ConfirmBox.py in version 1.5

2004-04-12 Thread Jim Duda
I've been struggling with a change in version 1.5 which I cannot figure
out how to resolve.

I remap some of the INPUT EVENT keys in my local_conf.py as follows:

EVENTS['input']['PAUSE'] = Event(INPUT_ENTER)
EVENTS['input']['REW'] = Event(INPUT_LEFT)
EVENTS['input']['FFWD'] = Event(INPUT_RIGHT)
EVENTS['input']['PLAY'] = Event(INPUT_UP)
EVENTS['input']['STOP'] = Event(INPUT_DOWN)

I do this for a specific RF remote control I have.  This works
fine in 1.4.  Starting with 1.5, these keys no longer work in the
file_ops.py plugin, which references the ConfirmBox.py module.

When I attempt to use the delete function in 1.5, I am forced
to used the LEFT/RIGHT/ENTER keys on the keyboard and
my mappings in local_conf.py don't work.  The local_conf.py mappings
in others ares, for example MENU events, work fine.

Can anyone help me out?

Hmm.  Now it doesn't happen.  I don't know why.  I did have to reboot my
computer today, before I attempted to reproduce.  Maybe there was some other
issue going on.  If it happens again, I'll repost this issue.
Thanks for the reply.

[Freevo-users] Help with Diskless Client Setup ?

2004-11-24 Thread Jim Duda
Version 1.5.1

I'm running freevo on multiple diskless clients, using LTSP (Linux Terminal
Server Project).  It works fine, except for two issues which I don't know
how to resolve.

Freevo appears to save all the various settings in /tmp/freevo.  For
example, I want a particular skin to be saved per node, however, the
settings are not saved.  Each time I restart freevo, the default skin
returns, and all the caching is lost.  In this LTSP environment, the /tmp
directory is a RAM mount directory, it's not a disk.  How do I repoint
/tmp/freevo to use another location, for example, using $HOME.

I am also have trouble with MAME.  I believe this used to work in earlier
releases.  When I launch any of the MAME games, Freevo appears to lose the
reference to the $HOME environment variable.  I know that for freevo the
$HOME is what I want it to be (I added some debug messages in the code),
however, when the MAME game is run, the MAME game cannot find $HOME/.xmame.
I make this claim because the game doesn't operate with the proper keyboard
configuration settings, as defined in $HOME/.xmame/cfg.

Can anyone help me out here?

Jim

[Freevo-users] Re: Help with Diskless Client Setup ?

2004-11-25 Thread Jim Duda



Yes indeed, I 
realized that the issue was with /var/cache not 
/tmp.

Withthe LTSP diskless setup, the /var directory 
is also a RAM mount, which doesn't survive a reboot.
I found that I need to change OS_CACHEDIR, within the 
code, to point to a disk location, 
for example, $HOME/cache.

Is there any means to gracefully override OS_CACHEDIR 
in local_conf.py ?

Michael,

I'm running xmame version 0.81.1. I haven't 
upgraded in a while.
xmame (x11) version 0.81.1 (Apr 26 
2004)

The games run properly from the menu, however, the 
games are not finding the $HOME/.xmame/cfg files
properly, as such, the joystick bindings are not mapped 
properly. If I run xmame from a shell, with 
$HOME
pointing to the proper place, the game works 
fine. 

Jim Have you updated your mame? Recent MAME versions don"t supported the old list info tag the
games section uses. There is code in current 1.5 branch of cvs for freevo that fixes this.
It will be in release 1.5.3 whenever that happens.

[Freevo-users] cdbackup and coversearch plugins

2005-02-21 Thread Jim Duda
I've been having a problem with using the cdbackup and coversearch plugins. 
They used to work, but have stopped working recently, but I'm not sure when. 
I don't get the option to find a cover from amazon on CDs recently ripped 
with cdbackup.  However, I can get a coversearch for CDs which where ripped 
in the past, sometime ago.

I'm hitting this block in coversearch:

except AttributeError:
if config.DEBUG  1:
print String(_( WARNING )) + :  +\
  String(_( Unknown CD, cover searching is 
disabled ))


It appears that maybe cdbackup isn't loading the ID tags?

Has anyone been having the similiar problme in 1.5.2 ?

Thanks,

Jim

[Freevo-users] Re: Needing help with lirc

2005-04-02 Thread Jim Duda
Vihtori,

You're almost there.  You indeed need to load /etc/freevo/lircrc.  You need
to map
The keys which your remote provides, to those which freevo wants.  For
example, I 
Have ...

Essential commands:
#LEFT, RIGHT, UP, DOWN, SELECT, ENTER, EXIT, DISPLAY
#Reccomended commands:
#REC, REW, PLAY, FFWD, PAUSE, STOP, CH+, CH-
#format of file is:

begin 
prog = freevo 
button = select
config = SELECT 
end 

begin 
prog = freevo 
button = up
config = UP 
end 

I have one entry for each of the essential commands shown at the top.

You can use the irw program to see exactly what commands you remote is
providing.

The next thing you can do is to tailor some of the commands in your
local_conf.py.
For example, I have in my local_conf.py:

EVENTS['video']['REW'] = Event(SEEK, arg=-600)
EVENTS['video']['FFWD'] = Event(SEEK, arg=+600)
EVENTS['video']['LEFT'] = Event(SEEK, arg=-60)
EVENTS['video']['RIGHT'] = Event(SEEK, arg=+60)
EVENTS['video']['DOWN'] = Event(SEEK, arg=-10)
EVENTS['video']['UP'] = Event(SEEK, arg=+10)

Good Luck.  I hope this makes sense to you.

Jim

[Freevo-users] Freevo 1.6 cdbackup/coversearch issue

2006-11-14 Thread Jim Duda
If I rip an audio CDROM using the cdbackup plugin, I cannot use the 
coversearch to fetch an album cover.  For some reason I don't get the 
coversearch menu item.  If I use some other method for ripping the 
CDROM, then I get a coversearch menu item.  There is something odd about 
how cdbackup creates the ripped directory, but I haven't been able to 
figure it out.

I had the same problem in release 1.5.4.

Has anyone else seen this issue?

Duncan,

I tried your CD_RIP_PN_PREF, however, I get the same results.

Using DEBUG=2, all I get is:
WARNING: Unknown CD, cover searching is disabled

My applicable local_conf settings are:
plugin.activate('audio.coversearch', args=('my number',) )

# AUDIO CDROM ripping

I tried digging into the code in 1.5.4, but I never had any
success.  I'm good with perl, but not so good with python.
I'm learning ... I will try again.

 I have done a quick scan of the code and it says that it requires an
 artist and an album. If you would like to to turn on this debug level it
 may explain why the coversearch is disabled for a particular item.
 
 The only thing I can think of is that your using an odd CD_RIP_PN_PREF
 setting, I use this one and it seems to work.

Well, I learned enough python to at least make a simple tweak.

I'm using lame for my mp3 encoding method.  I found that I needed to add code

in order to get lame to add the id3 tags necessary for coversearch to find the 
names, etc.
What encoding method do you use for which coversearch works okay?

 Here is the debug info from the patch you provided.  I did 3 different
 CD directories, the first two fail to work with coversearch, whereas,
 the 3rd does.  The first 2 were ripped using freevo cdbackup, while the
 3rd was ripped using a PC based rip tool.  I don't believe the problem
 resides with coversearch, but instead cdbackup.

 Coversearch needs the artist and the album or title, otherwise the menu
 item will not be displayed.

 AFAICS Nothing has changed in coversearch or in cdbackup that stops the
 artist and album/title being set.

 Have you tried using coversearch on a track?

 The problem needs some tracking down to find out why the artist and
 album are not being set for a directory.

 This means that you are getting an attribute error, attached is a patch
 that will print out more information about the cause.

 You can try applying this patch and let me know the results. You should
 have artist and album for a directory and
 have artist and title for an audio cd.

 Trouble is it works for me every time.

Duncan Webb [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 Ryan Roth wrote:

 Which version of xmame are you using?

From what I see in version 0.106 the errors and messages go to stderr so
 should not affect the parser.

 Duncan

 It should be
  /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/freevo/games/mame_cache.py
 not
 /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/freevo/directory.py

 I changed line 222 in
 /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/freevo/directory.py to fix this issue.

 from :

 listinfo = os.popen( mame_cmd + ' --listxml', 'r' )

 to:
 os.system( mame_cmd + ' -listxml -out /tmp/roms')
 listinfo = os.popen( 'cat /tmp/roms', 'r')

 This error is caused by the fact that when you call the '-listxml'
 command xmame prints errors and general information also.  By using the
 '-out' option also it allows you to capture ONLY the output from
 '-listxml' and dump it to a file.  Then we can just read that file with
 the XML parser.  This may not be the cleanest way to do this, if
 /tmp/roms exists it will just add to the file not replace it, but at
 least we know where the issue is now.


 I just upgraded my freevo box to the current SVN and I am getting the
 same error.  I haven't had time to look into it yet.

Re: [Freevo-users] VLC streaming towards freevo client

2007-01-29 Thread Jim Duda
Geert,

I too use VLC for streaming, however, I don't do this within freevo, I 
do it outside of freevo, manually, using the telnet interface to VLC 
running on the server.

my vlc startup script (/etc/init.d/rc.d/vlc) contains:

/usr/bin/vlc  --intf telnet --cr-average 1000 --vlm-conf 
/usr/local/etc/videolan/vlc/vlc.cfg --rtsp-host 0.0.0.0:554 

my vlc.cfg contains:
new livetv broadcast enabled
setup livetv input pvr:/dev/pvr350 --cr-average 1000
setup livetv output #standard{mux=ts,access=udp,url=224.0.0.1}
control livetv stop

I then telnet to port 4212 of the server, login, and execute livetv start.

I would love to do this within freevo, via a plugin or similar.

Could you share your FXD file such that I can see what you are doing?

Thanks,

Jim

 Folks I need some advice,
 
 First I explain what I've got
 
 - a freevo recording server running on CC 4.0 (no gui) works perfect. 
 This machine is also my home internet server (combining best of both 
 worlds) On this machine I have vlc installed and I'm alrady capable of 
 starting a live stream or a recorded stream from my PVR 500 in the CC 
 box. The client interface I have for the moment is a php webinterface 
 (mozilla only) which works in linux and windows. It's client independend.
 
 Now I wanna implement live tv stream in a freevo client without TV card. 
 (Everything streamed from my CC server)
 
 I'v created a fxd file capable of launching vlc on the client box in 
 stream listening mode, and streamed content gets actualy played.
 
 (I'm using a modified vlc.py I grabbed from freevofreebox1.0.tgz)
 
 Now I need to find a way to start up vlc with the desired parameters on 
 the server.
 
 rsh comes to my mind to do this from the command line.
 
 Is there any possibility to execute multiple commands from a fxd file? 
 like starting the stream remotly and then start vlc localy to listen.
 
 Other aproaches?

[Freevo-users] Playing HDTV Recordings

2007-02-11 Thread Jim Duda
I'm soon making the jump to high definition TV.  I'm getting a 42 flat 
panel LCD soon; 1920x1080 resolution.

I run freevo with a 2.4GHZ P4 in a shuttle PC form factor, diskless, 
feeding files from another linux NFS server.

I recently upgraded the video card to a NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 which 
supports DVI and xvmc.  I now run mplayer with -vo xvmc -vc ffmpeg12mc

I also upgraded my recording server to a pchdtv 5500 card.  I'm 
recording HDTV off the air into mpeg ts files.

The mpeg TS files are huge, 2X+ the size of NTSC files recorded on a 
PVR3500 card.  This is not surprising, to be expected.  The mpeg ts 
files have a 1280x720 resolution, which I want to play on my 1920x1080 
display.

I'm stuggling to get these large HDTV mpeg ts streams to play smoothly 
on the 2.4GHZ P4 with NVIDIA FX 5200 using xvmc and ffpmeg12mc.  Is this 
surprising?  After researching and reading various posts, I expected my 
P4 to be able to play these files with xvmc.  I struggling with severe 
A/V sync issues.  I don't have my high definition monitor yet, I'm 
attempting to play these on an NTSC TV with TV out.  Is this maybe more 
difficult to do?  Some downscaling issue maybe?  Playing these files 
consumes the entire CPU between mplayer and Xorg.

Should I be transcoding these files to mpeg4 or x264?  (I'm actually 
experimenting with that now).  I'm interested in the transcoding option 
for 2 reasons; 1) to allow my P4 to play them, 2) to conserve on disk 
space.

Does compressing the video files make my playback problems harder or easier?

Can anyone offer advice on what I should be pursuing in order to play 
HDTV recordings on my fancy LCD display with freevo?

Thanks,

Jim

Re: [Freevo-users] Testers required for DVB Live Pause Plugin

2007-02-12 Thread Jim Duda
Adam,
I'm very interested in this feature.  I have downloaded and compiled 
dvbstreamer, however, I'm unable to figure out how to get the software to work 
with my pcHDTV 5500 card, using ATSC.  I suspect that dvbstreamer doesn't 
support at ATSC channels.conf file.  

My channels.conf file entries look like this ...
WGBH-HD:503028615:8VSB:49:52:3
WGBH-SD:503028615:8VSB:65:68:4
WCVB-DT:509028615:8VSB:49:52:3

However, attempted to select WGBH-HD in dvbstreamer doesn't work.

  In my haste to press send I forgot to add a few things.


  In VideoGroups for your dvb adapters set the vdev to the number of the 
adapter,
  ie if you are using /dev/dvb/adapter0 you would have something like.

  VIDEO_GROUPS = [
  VideoGroup(vdev='0',
 desc='Watching TV',
 group_type='dvb')] 


  Also the controls for live pause are the normal pause/ffwd/rewind buttons.

  I haven't tested this with other types of devices, so it probably won't work 
with other type of video group.

  Rewind and Fast forward do work, although xine takes some time to resync to 
the stream (anything upto 30 seconds),
  not idea, I'm looking into this.

  Cheers

Re: [Freevo-users] Playing HDTV Recordings

2007-02-16 Thread Jim Duda
Eric,
I'm using the latest version 9746.  I haven't tried any earlier versions.  When 
playing 1280x720 content,
my 2.4Ghz P4 is pegged with Xorg using 60% of the CPU and mplayer using 40% of 
the CPU.  I know
that xvmc is working, since I get the information from mplayer that it's using 
the nvidia drivers.  I've checked
to insure that AGP is configured properly.  (/proc/driver/nvidia)

I am trying to play these using TVout, I'm not sure if there is some processing 
going on to downscale to 800x600.
I'm getting my flat screen in another week or so.

I'm trying to determine if I need to upgrade to a faster CPU or at a minimum a 
hyperthreding CPU.

   Which nvidia driver are you using? 9329 makes a HUGE difference for

[Freevo-users] Struggling with Xorg dpms

2007-02-25 Thread Jim Duda
I'm running freevo on a FC5 installation.  I'm having trouble disabling 
the Xorg dpms feature.  I'm using an nvidia FX 5200 card with the binary 
nvidia drivers from nvidia.  After some amount of time, my TV-out 
display goes dark.  I need to issue xset -dpms to turn the TV-out 
display back on.  I can manage this, it's just a pain to have to do.

I saw a similar post a few weeks ago.  The recommendation was to include
option nodpms in the xorg.conf file.  This isn't working for me.  The 
screen still goes dark, and now, xset -dpms has no affect.

The only thing wich seems to work is to use:
option dpms true and the xset -dpms when the screen goes black.

Anyone have any pointers on how to resolve this?

Jim

 I have this problem ages ago.. I just include these commands on the

 with xset before calling freevo.

I had this problem some time ago. My screen went black. I could recover the

your command in cron and run it every 5 minutes (or whatever you need). You

[Freevo-users] LCD Monitor Setup Help

2007-02-27 Thread Jim Duda
I thought I did a good job researching my High Definition LCD purchase, 
now I'm not so sure.

I purchased a Sharp Acquos LC-42D62U TV, which supports 1080p and 2 HDMI 
inputs.  The TV is just amazing when watching the high def cable feeds.

I'm struggling to get freevo working properly, I'm hoping someone can 
teach me what I need to know.

In preparation, I purchased a Nvidia FX 5200 card with a DVI connector. 
  I was under the impression this card was going to allow me to display 
1920x1080 on my Sharp 1080p display.  At least the Nvidia sales 
literature lends me to believe so.  I'm using the binary nvidia driver 
on my FC5 linux machine.

I have the cable box to 1 HDMI input (works fine).
I have my freevo box to the 2nd HDMI input.

The Sharp manual says It is necessary to set the PC format correctly to 
display XGA and WXGA signal.  Why is the PC display different than what 
my cable settop box can do?  I would think if the cable box can deliver 
1920x1080, I should be able to get my computer to do so.  What am I missing?

The best I have been able to achieve is 1280x1024.  If I configure the 
monitor in zoom mode, I can get a full screen freevo display, however, 
the videos from mplayer and xine are not full screen.

What should I set geometry to in /etc/freevo/freevo.conf (1360x768 
works best in zoom mode for some reason I don't understand)?

What else should I need to change in local_conf.py ?

I have this in my xorg.conf file:

Unfortunately, that Modeline doesn't work.  I believe it's because the

I investigated this.  Although I am using FC5, I'm not using gnome.  As

 Rubrik: [Freevo-users] Struggling with Xorg dpms
 Datum: Sun, 25 Feb 2007 17:44:06 -0500
 
 I'm running freevo on a FC5 installation.  I'm having trouble disabling 
 the Xorg dpms feature.  I'm using an nvidia FX 5200 card with the binary 
 nvidia drivers from nvidia.  After some amount of time, my TV-out 
 display goes dark.  I need to issue xset -dpms to turn the TV-out 
 display back on.  I can manage this, it's just a pain to have to do.

 I saw a similar post a few weeks ago.  The recommendation was to include
 option nodpms in the xorg.conf file.  This isn't working for me.  The 
 screen still goes dark, and now, xset -dpms has no affect.

 The only thing wich seems to work is to use:
 option dpms true and the xset -dpms when the screen goes black.

 Anyone have any pointers on how to resolve this?

Re: [Freevo-users] LCD Monitor Setup Help

2007-03-04 Thread Jim Duda
I just want to wrap up this thread with the final solution.

After a week of investigation and learning, I found out that this
Xorg message:

  (--) NVIDIA(0): SHARP HDMI (DFP-0): 135.0 MHz maximum pixel clock
  (--) NVIDIA(0): SHARP HDMI (DFP-0): Internal Single Link TMDS

Actual describes the capabilities of the video card, not the monitor 
itself.  I believe this is the monitor reporting the capabilities it
sees from the video card (I'm guessing here).

Later in the xorg.log file, I get this (but didn't report to the list):

(--) NVIDIA(0): --- EDID for SHARP HDMI (DFP-0) ---
(--) NVIDIA(0): EDID Version : 1.3
(--) NVIDIA(0): Manufacturer : SHP
(--) NVIDIA(0): Monitor Name : SHARP HDMI
(--) NVIDIA(0): Product ID   : 4067
(--) NVIDIA(0): 32-bit Serial Number : 16843009

(--) NVIDIA(0): Valid VRefresh Range : 55 Hz - 76 Hz
(--) NVIDIA(0): EDID maximum pixel clock : 150.0 MHz

Which states that the monitor can handle the pixel clock of 150 Mhz.

Finally, I found this switch to add to the Monitor or Device section:

  Option ModeValidation NoMaxPClkCheck

Which results in this:

(II) NVIDIA(0): Mode Validation Overrides for SHARP HDMI (DFP-0):
(II) NVIDIA(0): NoMaxPClkCheck
(II) NVIDIA(0): Frequency information for SHARP HDMI (DFP-0):
(II) NVIDIA(0):   HorizSync   : 15.000-68.000 kHz

(II) NVIDIA(0):   H/V Polarity : +/+
(II) NVIDIA(0): Mode is valid.
(II) NVIDIA(0):

Now I get crystal clear 1080p attachment to my flat panel monitor.

I suspect I'm stretching the capabilities of my $35 video card,
however, I'm not violating the capabilities of my $2,000 monitor :-)

Thanks for all your help!!

 Unfortunately, that Modeline doesn't work.  I believe it's because the 
 pixel clock of 148.35 is higher than the maximum of 135 Mhz.
 
 Here are some links that may help.
 http://xtiming.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/xtiming.pl
 http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Xorg_HDTV
 
 What the pages say is that it can be difficult to get the timings
 correct and HDMI can be fussy about the ModeLines.
 One thing I noticed is:
 
 (--) NVIDIA(0): SHARP HDMI (DFP-0)
 (--) NVIDIA(0): SHARP HDMI (DFP-0): 135.0 MHz maximum pixel clock
 (--) NVIDIA(0): SHARP HDMI (DFP-0): Internal Single Link TMDS
 (II) NVIDIA(0): Mode Validation Overrides for SHARP HDMI (DFP-0):
 
 which means that nvidia driver thinks that you are connecting to a DFP
 (digital flat panel) as opposed to a TV. I'm wondering if a HDTV is a
 digital flat panel or a TV. I would guess that a DFP is correct, which
 means that the ModeLines will work.
 
 One of the howtos said that when starting X add -- -logverbose 6 to
 that startx command line for more detailed information about why
 modlines are not being accepted.

[Freevo-users] Using XINE to play MPEG Transport Streams

2007-03-04 Thread Jim Duda
I'm starting to record HDTV content using an HD5500 card.  I'm dumping 
MPEG transport streams from the dvb interface /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0.

I can play these using mplayer, however, I'm at what appears to be the 
edge of my 2.4G P4 processor (non hyper threading).  I don't have enough 
headroom.

I'm trying to play these with xine as an experiment.

I can play DVDs with xine without any problem.  The audio goes out my 
spdif interface as expected.

I can play MPEGS recorded from a PVR250 with xine without any problems.

When playing these MPEG transport streams via xine, I get encouraging 
results in that the CPU usage is very low, however, I don't get any audio!

In the freevo display, these files appear as MPEG Transport Stream, 
1280x720

For some reason, xine isn't extracting the audio properly from the mpeg 
transport streams.  Has anyone encountered this issue with xine?  I'm 
unable to get xine to plays these outside freevo either.

I want to isolate any issues I might be having with recording and

[Freevo-users] Record and Play of MPEG Transport Streams

2007-03-07 Thread Jim Duda
I'm reporting what I've learned, hoping to share what I have with 
others, hoping to get similiar experiences.

I'm recording ATSC streams using a pcHDTV HD5500 card.  The script I use 
for recording is at the bottom of this thread.  This card dumps out 
MPEG2 transport streams.

I have an NVIDIA FX 5200 AGP 8X card for playback.  I'm using the NVIDIA 
binary drivers on linux.  I'm trying to play back using a 2.4Ghz P4 with 
a 400 Mhz FSB, no hyper threading.  The NVIDIA drivers support the xvmc 
MPEG2 acceleration features.

When I attempt to play these MPEG Transport Streams using mplayer, both 
mplayer and Xorg consume 100% of the processor.  The result is not at 
all acceptable.

When I attempt to play these MPEG Transport Streams using xine, the 
video plays fine, the CPU usage is very low (20%), however, I don't get 
any audio.

I then used the dvb-mpegtools ts2ps program to convert the transport 
streams to program streams.

When I play the program stream with mplayer, I get the same results, the 
entire CPU is consumed.

When I play the program stream with xine, I get audio and the CPU usage 
is still  20%.  It's a workable solution.

I don't know why mplayer has trouble with these streams while xine seems 
to be able to play the program stream properly.

Re: [Freevo-users] Card to hdtv - NVIDIA FX5200 works

2007-04-20 Thread Jim Duda
I'm using an NVIDIA FX-5200 AGP with a heatsink (fanless).
This card has a DVI out.  I drive my Sharp 42 1080p monitor using a DVI to 
HDMI cable.
It took me a while to get the correct X configuration to work, but I found the 
proper one for 1080p.
I'm using the NVIDIA binary driver from NVIDIA.
I can play all ATSC 1920x1080 content on my 2.4 Ghz P4 without hyper-threading.
Using Xine with xvmc, this card works fine and consumes 40% of the CPU.
Using mplayer with xvmc, this card fails to work as it consumes 100% of the CPU.
I think there is still some issue with mplayer and the NVIDIA binary driver.
XVMC is a must for the NVIDIA.
This card cost me $35.

I record ATSC off the air using an HD-5500.

Hi there,

A little off topic but I´m looking for  video card that can do HDTV. I
think I need something that can do 1920x1080 on dvi output right?
Since my machine doesnt have pci-e, the card needs to be AGP. There´s
a lot of geforce based cards that claim to do 2048x1536, but it seems
that they only do that on analog output. What´s the cheapest model
that I can get that do HDTV? what about the radeons?

For my Sharp Aquos 42 LCD monitor, the key thing I needed was NoMaxPClkCheck.

You mileage may vary :-)

The NVIDIA binary drivers have a very detailed explaination of the Xorg setup.

I hope this helps.

 Hi there,

 My TV just arrived, and I´m wondering if any of you has a xorg.conf
 with nvidia card and 1920x1080... is there something special to do, or
 just put the 1920x1080 and hope that works?

[Freevo-users] record_client connection refused

2007-05-14 Thread Jim Duda
I have the record_server running on a different machine than the freevo 
client I use for viewing.  I do the same with the encoding server, 
web_server, and rss_server.  I have the recording_server and 
encoding_server IP and PORT settings in local_conf.py (default PORTS). 
The encoding_server appears to work fine.

I can operate the record_server just fine, using the web_server.  I can 
schedule recordings just fine using the web server.

However, when I attempt to schedule recordings using the freevo viewing 
client, via the TV Guide gui, I get error messages:

getScheduledRecordings: (111, 'Connection refused')

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/freevo/tv/record_client.py,

I looked at the code for record_client.py.  If I use wget on the URL, I get:

lroom# wget http://linux:18001/

I don't get connection refused.  I assume wget is complaining because 
it's trying to interface with some xml interface.

Any ideas on how I should debug this?

Re: [Freevo-users] Dual DVD-T tuner and Freevo

wait $SLEEP_PID

# You should add some check here to make sure cat is still running,

 Hello there,

 I have successfully installed my Freevo using Nova-T-500 PCI card.

 TV is running well and I'd like to use the feature of dual tuner of this

 Any hint to make a somewhat pool of tuners ? (eg is first one is busy 
 recording for example, then use the second one for example ?).

 For watching TV and also recording ?
 
 The only supported option with freevo-1 is to dedicate one of the two
 tuners for recording and the other for playing, this should work fine
 with DVB cards, though I don't have either DVB or a DVB card. But other
 people on the list have.
 
 If I'm not mistaken, DVB cards write mpeg files so I think you don't
 need to use mencoder to capture the data stream. Search the wiki for DVB
 and you may come up with something.
 
 For even if I specify dvb://2@channel in VCR_CMD, the 
 /var/cache/freevo/record.video0 is still exist?

[Freevo-users] Bug in XMLTV Listings?

2007-06-12 Thread Jim Duda
I think there is a bug/memory leak in maybe XMLTV listings or Scheduled 
Records.  I'm having trouble pinning it down, as it's not consistent.

Sometimes, when I view the XMLTV TV Listings under Watch-TV/TV Guide, in 
conjunction with viewing Scheduled Recordings, a subsequent attempt to 
watch a recorded video results in a freevo crash.

If I use the top program, I see that Python has consumed 65% of my RAM 
(512M bytes).  I have to reboot freevo to get things working again.

I'm using the most recent released 1.7.2 version.

How can I help track down this crash?

Re: [Freevo-users] Bug in XMLTV Listings?

2007-06-14 Thread Jim Duda
Duncan,

Unfortunately, I cannot run without mounted NFS partitions.  The client 
machine in question runs as a diskless machine which uses NFS for its 
root file system.

Other tests I can run?

Jim

Duncan Webb wrote:
 Duncan,

 1) My local_config.py is attached.
 2) No background freevo processes on the machine which crashes, however,
 on another server machine I have web_server, rss_server, record_server,
 and  encoding_server running.
 3) no freevo crontabs
 4) the machine is up all day, but the problem doesn't happen until I
 view TV guide.
 5) I ran top and watched memory usage.  When I select TV Guide, freevo
 takes 15-20 seconds for Preparing TV Guide.  As this was happening,
 top shows python increasingly taking 62% of the memory.   After I exit
 TV Guide, the memory is still consumed.  If I then go to Watch a
 Movie-Videos and select an mpg to watch, I get the crash.

 I do use a cron job to grab the XMLTV listings.  The cron job runs on
 the server machine.  The machine which crashes is NFS mounted to the
 server machine.
 
 Is it possible to run without NFS mounted partitions? If so, can you try
 this and see if the memory usage still causes a crash? It will increase as
 the TV guide is loaded and I wouldn't expect it to go up further next time
 you go into the TV guide.

 I think that we need more information to help you.
 1) It helps to post your local_config.py
 2) Are you running any freevo processes in the background
 3) Any freevo crontabs
 4) How log is the machine up before it crashes

 Can you watch what is happening with top when you do certain activities
 with freevo, such as going into the tv guide, does the memory usage
 increase each time?

 How did you install python, built it yourself or installed from a
 package?

[Freevo-users] Problem with DVD Me

2007-11-30 Thread Jim Duda
I suspect this question should go to the XINE list, but I thought I'd 
try this list first.

I have some DVDs which have multiple selections on the main menu.  To 
get to half the selections, I have to use the RIGHT key on the remote to 
get to choose them.

I have two freevo boxes.  On one machine, the menus work fine.  However, 
on a second machine, I cannot get to the right side of the menu.  The 
RIGHT key just won't go there.  I've used irw the ircat to insure that 
the RIGHT key is getting recognized, which it is, but xine doesn't seem 
to see the RIGHT key.

It's not the remote, cuz the remotes for the two different machines 
behave the same way on each machine.  One machine works, the other 
doesn't, regardless of the remote.

It's not the software, cuz both machines use the exact same code on the 
exact same NFS mounted file systems.

I think it must be the DVD drive.  Is that possible?  Could the DVD 
drive cause a difference disallowing the RIGHT key from working on some 
DVDs?

Tnanks for any advice.

Jim

[Freevo-users] Plugin Questions - 1.7.5

2007-12-24 Thread Jim Duda
I've upgraded to 1.7.5.  Thanks for all the new features and great work 
everyone!!

I'm trying to use the new vpodcast and apodcast features.

The audio podcasts download and play fine.  Is there supposed to be a 
menu subitem to allow deletion of the podcast?

I cannot get the vpodcasts to play.  To start with, I simply used the 
example configuration found in the plugin documentation.  I can see the 
items to play (example, various utube items), however, when I use the 
SELECT button, nothing happens.  Should I expect the video to play? 
What is needed beyond xine and mplayer?

Finally, I've installed screensaver:
plugin.activate('screensaver.balls')

Duncan,
I'll give the debug method a try tonight (I'm at work right now).

Last night, I did make some progress.
1) I installed kaa.metadata 0.7.1
2) I added .flv to the MPLAYER_SUFFIX list in local_conf.py
I'm not sure which helped (if not both).

Now what happens is the flv files do download and get stored.
Mplayer now plays the audio, but not video for flv files.
I'm using the later version of mplayer available in fedora 7 repo.

For mplayer, I need to force -vo xxmc and -vc ffmpeg12 to play my HD 
recordings. I think I now need to rethink how I 
have this setup (in local_conf.py) to allow mplayer to play flv files now as 
well as HD mpeg files (I'm guessing at this 
point). I'm sure I can figure this out now.

Is there a method for deleting the podcasts other than going into the file 
system and manually deleting them?

I'm really exciting about the podcast feature ...

Thanks,
Jim

 Both the video and audio podcasts examples work out of the box. What I

 What you can do is to enable DEBUG_CHILDAPP=1 in local_conf.py and then
 try it from freevo, then go to the log, find the mplayer or xine command
 and try this from the command line. Or may be check what is in the

[Freevo-users] OSD_SOUNDS

I noticed the OSD_SOUNDS_ENABLE switch in freevo_conf.py today.
Does anyone know if that works?
Can anyone share the sounds they use for this?  Seems cool ...

2007-12-26 Thread Jim Duda
Well, I can get the video podcasts to play, however, I need to remove 
the xvmc option from MPLAYER_VO_DEV in order to get them to play, they 
will only play with xv (which makes sense).

my local_conf.py has:

if CONF.display == 'x11':
 MPLAYER_VO_DEV = 'xvmc,xv,sdl,x11' # X11 drivers in order of
else:
 MPLAYER_VO_DEV = CONF.display  # e.g.: x11,mga,fbdev, see mplayer

MPLAYER_ARGS = { 'dvd': '-cache 8192',
  'mpg': '-cache 5000 -vc ffmpeg12mc'

I add -vc ffmpeg12mc for mpg files, all the mpg files are my HD 
content (MPEG2).

I need both xvmc and ffmpeg12mc for mpg files to play, but xvmc doesn't 
work for flv files.

I do see that in mplayer.py, there is code to handle xvmc and ffmpeg12mc 
options, however, I'm not able to figure out how to get set_vcodec to 
activate.

from
mplayer.py

set_vcodec = False
 if item['xvmc'] and item['type'][:6] in 
['MPEG-1','MPEG-2','MPEG-T']:
 set_vcodec = True

 # Mplayer command and standard arguments
 if set_vcodec:
 if item['deinterlace']:
 bobdeint='bobdeint'
 else:
 bobdeint='nobobdeint'
 command += ['-vo', 'xvmc:%s' % bobdeint, '-vc','ffmpeg12mc']
 else:
 command += ['-vo',config.MPLAYER_VO_DEV + 
config.MPLAYER_VO_DEV_OPTS]

If I could figure out how to get mplayer.py to set_vcodec, then I could 
remove xvmc from MPLAYER_VO_DEV to get both to work.

Thanks for any advice.

Re: [Freevo-users] Plugin Questions - 1.7.5

2007-12-27 Thread Jim Duda
Duncan,

 I think what you are looking for is the correct MPLAYER_ARGS in
 local_conf.py. It is the file extension that is used so you can set
 specific options for particular file types.

 HTH
 Duncan


Yes in essence.  Unfortunately, the MPLAYER_ARGS array cannot be used to 
overload the MPLAYER_VO_DEV switch (at least 
that is my understanding from attempting to read the code).
If mplayer runs with -VO xvmc,vo, then it doesn't play flv files properly.

I don't have a workable solution.

My MPLAYER_VO_DEV must have xvmc,vo, (for HD mpeg2 files) however, that breaks 
flv file play.

Does that make sense?

Duncan,

  That's correct it can't but MPlayer uses the first -vo setting and IIRC
  the MPLAYER_ARGS comes first so it should use these settings.
 

I learned that MPLAYER_ARGS comes second to the normal -vo option and 
the first -vo xv is used by MPLAYER which prevents the mpg from playing 
properly.

Example:

ps ax

  /usr/bin/mplayer -slave -ac hwdts,hwac3,a52, -autosync 100 -nolirc 
-autoq 100 -screenw 1920 -screenh 1080 -fs -ao alsa:device=spdif -vo 
xv,sdl,x11  -cache 5000 -vo xmvc -

I'm going to muck around with mplayer.py and see if I can maybe switch 
them around.

[Freevo-users] Anyone Using intel GMA 3100 for xvmc and HDTV ?

2008-02-24 Thread Jim Duda
I'm thinking about upgrading my Shuttle XPC Media Player from an SB51 to 
the latest SG33G5B.

With the SB51, I run with a single core 2.4G Intel P4, no 
hyperthreading.  For video, I'm using Nvidia FX6200.  All in all it 
works quite well, albeit I have occasional video stutter when playing 
HDTV content with xvmc using both mplayer and xine.  I'm only using 
45-50 % of the CPU whenever playing HDTV with xine or mplayer.  So, I 
don't think I have a processor bandwidth issue.  The video stutter is 
rather annoying, but I deal with it.

The SG33G5B comes with an integrated Intel GMA 3100 graphics engine 
which an HDMI port.  Can anyone confirm if the GMA 3100 works well with 
Xorg, xvmc, mplayer, and xine?  Any issues?

The SG33G5B also comes with Realtek ALC888DD audio, which I want to use 
the digital SPDIF output.  Can anyone confirm if this audio chipset 
works well with alsa, spdif, mplayer and xine?

Thanks,

Jim

Christian,

The HDMI port is digital, so, in theory provides a better signal, your 
mileage may vary.

It appear though that you at least have the the Xorg drivers working with the 
3100?
Do you simply use the XV driver?  Have you tried the XVMC driver too?

Are you using the Digital Audio SPDIF port?

 I have been lazy... as I have this box, and I´m still using the VGA
 cable. Is the HDMI port so much better than the VGA? my LCD TV has a
 native resolution of 1366 x 768, so I just set my xorg to that. Perhaps
 I should buy a hdmi cable and try the 1080[p/i].

Re: [Freevo-users] Anyone Using intel GMA 3100 for xvmc and HDTV ?

2008-02-25 Thread Jim Duda
Reginaldo,

Which geforce card did you purchase?   Do you use xvmc?

I've tried both FX5200 and FX6200 (fanless) with the Nvidia proprietary linux 
driver.
I get occassonal stutter when using xvmc, not horrible, but enough to make it 
noticeable.

  Hi ...

  I have this XPC for a few months, and did not had much success with the GMA 
3100  so I bought a cheap fanless geforce with HDMI and works great.

  But as I am a linux newbie, is probably me.

 I cannot confirm just yet, but I have a laptop on order with a 3100X
 which I will be putting linux and the latest version of freevo onto.
 I'll report back when it gets here and I'm done, unless of course you
 try it yourself before hand ;)

 I have a Gigabyte GA-G33M-S2H, which has an Intel G33 chipset with GMA-3100
 graphics. I put a Core2Duo 6600 in it and I can play full 1080p content just
 fine via HDMI. It really only slows on *very* high bitrate content, such as
 direct from a Bluray/HD-DVD. If I had my time back, I probably would have
 bought a slightly faster CPU. There is work being done to greatly speed up
 video acceleration on these chips (The plan is actually to go much further
 than Nvidia/ATI in this regard), but I have found the performance more than
 acceptable as-is, since it has no trouble pushing 1920x1080 pixels.


 The SG33G5B also comes with Realtek ALC888DD audio, which I want to use
 the digital SPDIF output.  Can anyone confirm if this audio chipset

 My board has an ALC889A, which works perfectly.

Re: [Freevo-users] Automounting in Freevo

2008-02-27 Thread Jim Duda
I ended up solving this problem myself using automount.

In my local_conf.py, I have:

plugin.activate('usb')
plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='video', args=('USB Device 1', 
'/mnt/usb/device_a'))
plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='audio', args=('USB Device 1', 
'/mnt/usb/device_a'))
plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='image', args=('USB Device 1', 
'/mnt/usb/device_a'))
plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='video', args=('USB Device 2', 
'/mnt/usb/device_b'))
plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='audio', args=('USB Device 2', 
'/mnt/usb/device_b'))
plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='image', args=('USB Device 2', 
'/mnt/usb/device_b'))

my /etc/auto.master has:

#
# Sample auto.master file
# This is an automounter map and it has the following format
# key [ -mount-options-separated-by-comma ] location
# For details of the format look at autofs(5).
#
/misc   /etc/auto.misc
/net-hosts
/mnt/usb /etc/auto.usb --timeout=2 --debug
#
# Include central master map if it can be found using
# nsswitch sources.
#
# Note that if there are entries for /net or /misc (as
# above) in the included master map any keys that are the
# same will not be seen as the first read key seen takes
# precedence.
#
+auto.master

my /etc/auto.usb has:

device_a -fstype=vfat,rw,gid=100,umask=002   :/dev/sda1
device_b -fstype=vfat,rw,gid=100,umask=002   :/dev/sdb1

I did run into one problem with automount, I found out that I had to remove 
/dev/random and create a link from 
/dev/random to /dev/urandom.  For some reason, /dev/random was causing 
automount to not start.

I hope that helps.  This has worked just fine for me.

Jim

Evan Hisey [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 Emil-
 Gnome relies on the hal/udev/dbus trio to do automounting. Freevo
 does not use these tools at all. Third party auotmounter will not
 really help you at all either, or atleast if you are going to use the
 usb plugin. Can you attach your local_config.py? Most likely issue
 will be that you do not have teh usb plugin configured correctly.

 Hi, guys. I've installed Freevo on top of a totally vanilla Debian Etch and
 I have a problem that is just driving me up the walls.
 Now, I have everything set up in Freevo the way I would like it. That is no
 TV menu item, for example, as I just want to play video files on the box
 from an inserted external USB HD.

 However, inserting my USB HD doesn't mount it in Freevo. At least that's
 what I assume is happening.. I insert my drive and I can now choose USB
 Disk from the menus, but when I do choose it I get Directory does not
 exist or something similar.

 The thing I find odd is that the disk mounts just fine in Gnome. No problem
 what-so-ever. It mounts and plays media files in the underlying Gnome that
 Freevo runs on top of just fine. This is just baffling to me. Could someone
 explain to me what I'm doing wrong in down-to-earth terms, because I would
 really like to use Freevo, but as of now I can't use the only function I
 want..

 I tried installing some thirdparty automounters, but that doesn't seem to
 help either and I got confused settings them up as well.

 I would really appreciate any help what-so-ever. If there's an output of a
 command or anything that would maybe help me, don't hesitate to mention it.

 Thanks in advance,

[Freevo-users] Xine upgrade (lib = 1.2, ui = 0.99.5)

2008-03-24 Thread Jim Duda
I just upgraded my distro from fedora 7 to fedora 8.

With fc8 comes xine-lib 1.2 and xine ui 0.99.5.

I found that I couldn't play mpegs until I changed my xine -V from xxmc 
to xvmc.  Now I can play mpegs fine.

I'm still not able to play DVDs though, and I'm stumped as to why not.

I have run xine from the cmdline, and I can see that it finds the DVD 
title, VOBs, etc.  It just doesn't startup and play.

Has anyone encountered this issue?

Thanks,

Jim

Re: [Freevo-users] xxmc

2008-04-28 Thread Jim Duda
Chris,

Here is what I know.

I'm running freevo 1.8.0; the latest versions of xine and mplayer for fedora 8. 
 I'm using the proprietary NVIDIA 
drivers for my FX-6200 nvidia card, which uses xvmc for high definition video.

For older version of freevo and xine, I used to have to use -V xxmc for xine, 
however, for the latest versions, I simply 
use auto and xine appears to figure it out.  The auto must be working, as I 
can play high definition mpegs without any 
issue, and it certainly wouldn't play if xine were not using either xxmv or 
xvmc.  I haven't checked in a while, but 
IIRC, the last time I checked xine was uisng xvmc and not xxmc.  This was a 
change since I upgraded from fedora 7 to 
fedora 8, so, xine had some changes/improvements.  The only time I have to 
check to see what it's doing is when the 
videos don't play :-)

My local_conf.py has this:
XINE_VO_DEV = 'auto'
XINE_ARGS_DEF =  --config /home/lroom/.xine/config --aspect-ratio auto 
--no-lirc 

For mplayer, I need to use xvmc for high definintion content.  I control the vo 
switch using MPLAYER_ARGS in 
local_conf.py
MPLAYER_ARGS = { 'dvd': '-cache 8192 -vo xvmc -vc ffmpeg12mc',
 'mpeg'   : '-cache 5000 -vo xvmc -vc ffmpeg12mc -ao 
alsa:device=iec958',
 'mpg': '-cache 1 -vo xvmc -vc ffmpeg12mc -ao 
alsa:device=iec958',
 'ts' : '-cache 5000 -vo xvmc -vc ffmpeg12mc -ao 
alsa:device=iec958',

The latest versions of mplayer that come with fedora 8 are incredible for 
playing high definition mpegs.  The earlier 
versions used to occassionally stutter, but all of those issues are gone now.   
The mplayer playback is no different 
than a live feed (from what I can see) when using xvmc.

Chris Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 What is the correct setting to get Freevo to use xxmc? X.org loads
 xxmc, but when I play a video using either Xine or MPlayer, neither
 one uses xxmc. I've tried forcing xxmc in the Xine config, setting my
 default  freevo movie player in local.py to xine -V xxmc and setting
 xxmc in the xine settings in local.py all with no luck.

 Any suggestions?

[Freevo-users] mplayer.py bug with playlist url (.pls)

2008-05-04 Thread Jim Duda
I found a bug in the mplayer.py plugin when attempting to play a network 
url which is a playlist.  Mplayer needs a -playlist argument for these 
url's and it wasn't getting it.

An example filename in question is:
http://www.wbur.org/listen/feed/shoutcast.pls

The is_playlist variable wasn't getting set to true because the ext 
variable was getting loaded with:
ext = str(os.path.splitext(filename))
ext=(u'http://www.wbur.org/listen/feed/shoutcast', u'.pls')

I needed to add the following patch to get network playlists to work

this is the best patch to make.

downgrade to 1.8.1, I appear to be stuck at 1.8.2.

Re: [Freevo-users] setting up USB storage

Evan,

I have autofs running.

My local_conf.py has:

plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='audio', args=('USB Device 2',

plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='image', args=('USB Device 2',
'/mnt/usb/device_b'))

my /etc/auto.master has:

/misc   /etc/auto.misc
/net-hosts
/mnt/usb /etc/auto.usb --timeout=2 --debug

my /etc/auto.usb has:

device_a -fstype=vfat,rw,gid=100,umask=002   :/dev/sda1
device_b -fstype=vfat,rw,gid=100,umask=002   :/dev/sdb1

With the above, I can hotplug a USB drive into freevo and it will be
recognized.

Hope this helps.

Jim

If I comment out line 302 of video/plugins/mplayer.vo, all is well now!

vo.remove('') causes a crash on my end.

Thanks for the new release!!

[Freevo-users] Looking for XVMC Video Card Advice

2008-08-30 Thread Jim Duda
I've been using an Nvidia FX6200 video card with freevo for a while now.
I play HD content, so I need the Xvmc feature.

I've recently upgraded to fedora 9, and the FX6200 won't work in 
conjunction with the FC9 version of Xorg, and the latest nvidia driver.
I'm also unable to get the working Nvidia 100.14.11 driver version to 
work with the latest Xorg. I'm trying to work through the issues, but 
I'm frustrated with the nvidia proprietary drivers.

Can anyone recommend a working fanless AGP video card which supports 
Xvmc on Fedora 9?

I wish I never upgraded ...

Jim

Re: [Freevo-users] Looking for XVMC Video Card Advice

2008-08-31 Thread Jim Duda
  I believe that he is refering to mpeg2 hd.  About a year ago the 
nvidia binary
  drivers stopped working with agp cards for decoding mpeg2 content.

Yes indeed this was my issue.  On the nvidia user forum, I learned I 
needed to shut down AGP to get XVMC working for mpeg2 HD viewing.  It's 
working again.

Thanks,

Jim

 Unless this has changed by a very recent development I haven't heard of
 yet, XvMC cannot be used to decode VC-1 and H264.  I recall some effort
 underway to address this as a stopgap until VAAPI ascends from vaporware
 status, but I don't believe has approached something resembling a usable
 state yet.

 So, on Linux, for the time being, we are left compensating for this lack
 of capability by buying beefier CPUs (and further waiting for libavcodec
 to support frame threading).

[Freevo-users] Xine Play Option Disappeared

2008-11-16 Thread Jim Duda
I've been running freevo 1.8.2 since it was released.
I don't know when this happened, but I can no longer
play DVDs (xine) with freevo.

Freevo recognizes the DVD.  When I select the DVD to
play, it fails to play but instead gives me the
directory listing Video-TS, Audio-TS.

When I menu into the DVD, I don't see the 'play'
option.

xine itself works as I can play mpg files using
the 'play with alternate player' menu option.

lsdvd works from the command line.

What could have happened?

How can I debug this?

Thanks,

Jim

[Freevo-users] Freevo Fails to Recognize DVDs (which lsdvd does)

2008-11-29 Thread Jim Duda
I've been having trouble with freevo recognizing DVDs lately.

I have a few DVDS which can be read by lsdvd.
However, they don't work will with mminfo; see the info below.
I can manually play the DVDs with mplayer or xine
I did a reinstall of all the most recent 1.8.2 source, following
the install insrtuctions in the Wiki

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks,

[Freevo-users] lastfm plugin questions

2008-12-01 Thread Jim Duda
I signed up for lastfm yesterday and started using the plugin.  It's pretty 
cool.

I have two questions

1) What is the different between the lastfm and lastfm2 plugins?
2) I'm having trouble with STOP.  Using the STOP key, it takes a long time to 
exit.  Is this normal?  A couple of times, I was forced to kill -9 the mplayer 
app.

Nice plugin!  
Freevo rocks!

MPlayer dev-SVN-r27514-4.3.0 (C) 2000-2008 MPlayer Team

I just have to manually kill mplayer to stop it.

 
 In lastfm2 a workaround for this is to create a thread and download the
 track when enough has been downloaded mplayer start playing the file.
 STOP will stop mplayer but may not kill the thread.

I tried lastfm2, however, I found that it would play some track for maybe
10 seconds, then stop.  I will try again.

Jim

[Freevo-users] $HOME for /usr/bin/freevo start ?

2009-01-28 Thread Jim Duda
I run freevo on different diskless computer machines in my house.
I use a modified version of the LTSP scripts for bootstrap from a tftp server.
I have to modify the scripts to keep LTSP4.2 compatible with newer versions of 
fedora.
I've tried numerous ways to boot freevo automatically, all of which I get to 
work somehow, 
but most are usually hacks.

My distro is basically fedora 9 which boots from a central server.

The easiest method I've found is to run freevo as root (right or wrong) 
and start freevo as a server from rc.d/init.d

Recently, I inadvertently deleted my freevo filesystem, and lost my backups, 
losing all my scripts. I've recovered most of my scripts, and repaired my 
backup processes :-)

One thing I haven't restored is my method for automatically starting freevo 
as a service.  For the life of me, I cannot recall how I hacked it to work.

I cannot explain some behaviour, I'm hoping someone can shed some light.

I want to run freevo as root, however, use an alternate HOME directory (not 
/root).

In my service script, I set HOME before I launch freevo.

In a nut-shell I have:

#!/bin/bash
setenv HOME=/home/'hostname'
/usr/bin/freevo start

I am expecting that freevo runs with the new HOME directory, but as user root.
I believe this is happening, because the log files indicate freevo is finding
its local_conf.py in the proper place of /home/(host name)/.freevo/local_conf.py
So far, so good.

What doesn't happen is when freevo spaws off mplayer.
In this situation, mplayer is running with a HOME of /root, not 
/home/(hostname).
I know this because I need to have a proper .asroundrc in /root for
my audio to work.  I am expecting mplayer to look for .asoundrc in 
/home/(host name)/.asoundrc.  But, I've determined mlayer is using 
/root/.asoundrc

Can anyone explain why mplayer is using a different $HOME than freevo?

Thanks,

Jim

Re: [Freevo-users] $HOME for /usr/bin/freevo start ?

2009-01-31 Thread Jim Duda
I used Duncan's suggestion of defining a site-wide asound.conf.
Each of my freevo boxes has it's own configuration
I created a soft link from /etc/asound.conf to /tmp/asound.conf
Each freevo node has a unique /tmp directory.
During startup, I copy the proper .asoundrc to /tmp/asound.conf

This works fine.  I have reverted back to running freevo as root.
I couldn't get freevo to run as a normal user, and have mplayer
fetch .asoundrc via $HOME.  Very odd, must be something with 
my LTSP setup.

 I'm curious about your LTSP set-up.  How many freevo terminals do you have, 
 and are they similar in hardware configuration, or different?  How do you 
 find it as far as maintenance goes?  How fast do the terminals boot up?  

I have 3 different terminals. Boot takes maybe 15 seconds (or less) before 
freevo starts. 
Each has a different hardware configuration.  Mainly different video and audio 
hardware.
The maintenance isn't too bad.  I use yum for software updates, I only have to 
update one file system.
I can either do the updates on the server using yum --installroot=, or, telnet 
to one of the freevo
boxes and run yum update as root.

 
 In my set-up, I have a central server running Debian which functions as a 
 Freevo web  record server, Samba file  print server, IMAP mail, Misterhouse 
 home automation, etc., which is the hub of my set-up.  It presently tftp 
 boots the MediaMVP, and serves up the content to it and two other Freevo 
 boxes which have identical motherboards, but vary in remotes and other 
 hardware.  They started life as Ubuntu 6 boxes, and have been 
 frankensteined with upgrades from both Ubuntu 7 and Freevo Debian packages 
 and their dependencies.  Needless to say, they're getting to be a lot of work 
 to maintain, and I've been thinking about an LTSP or other net-booted disk 
 image ideas.

Me too.

 
 To get there sometime in the future, I started by having a 'freevo' user on 
 each box, with the same UID/GID.  My two Freevo frontends mount the freevo 
 home directory, which has a ~/.freevo directory, which contains just the 
 cache at the moment.  So, the cache gets shared between the three machines 
 (main/record server which hosts /home, and the two frontends).  Eventually, 
 I want to have one local_conf.py in the freevo home, and have it include the 
 appropriate /etc/freevo/local_conf.py which would contain the 
 machine-specific configuration items.

I configure each of my freevo boxes using a different $HOME.
The $HOME is defined by the hostname (livingroom, bedroom, gym).
My freevo service scripts sets $HOME before starting freevo, freevo finds the 
proper local_conf.py
So, each freevo box has a different $HOME/.freevo/local_conf.py, which allows 
for unique configuration.
The services loaded on each box is controlled by /etc/lts.conf.
lts.conf allows me to start different services and load different modules as 
necessary.
I've found that LTSP isn't friendly with the new upstart methodology found in 
fedora 9 and beyond, 
which requires me to massage the LTS rc scripts.  

For some reason, $HOME doesn't propagate to mplayer, mplayer doesn't fetch 
$HOME/.asoundrc
This issue started this thread.

 
 In the mean time, one AMD 3500 box boots off a SATA2 7200rpm disk (boots to 
 Freevo menu in about 45 seconds), and the other in the bedroom boots off a 
 slw Kingston 4GB flash drive in about 2 minutes.  They're functional 
 enough, but it's getting to be a pain to maintain them.
 
 Thanks for your time!
 
 /Mike

Re: [Freevo-users] Automount USB recommendations?

2009-03-21 Thread Jim Duda
Roy,

I've had good success using the automount program.

I also use the usb plugin.


plugin.activate('usb')
plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='video', args=('USB Device 1', 
'/mnt/usb/device_a'))
plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='audio', args=('USB Device 1', 
'/mnt/usb/device_a'))
plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='image', args=('USB Device 1', 
'/mnt/usb/device_a'))
plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='video', args=('USB Device 2', 
'/mnt/usb/device_b'))
plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='audio', args=('USB Device 2', 
'/mnt/usb/device_b'))
plugin.activate('usbstorage', type='image', args=('USB Device 2', 
'/mnt/usb/device_b'))

 I've got Freevo running on a Ubuntu Server system, and currently don't
 have any automount system installed.
 
 I'd like to have the box automatically mount USB thumbdrives and such
 when they are plugged in.  More specifically, I'd like to mount them
 read-only so that they can be safely removed, even if they are not
 properly unmounted.  And yes, I'd like things cleaned up automatically
 if they are yanked out (think impatient wife and children).
 
 
 Does anyone have any recommendations on automount solutions?  So far,
 the contenders seem to be:
 
 1) Hacking my own udev rules and scripts
 
 2) ivman
 
 3) usbmount
 
 4) pymount
 
 
 Any experience to share, folks?  Any other candidates?

 Hopefully you are using the REL-1_8_4 tag and not the rel-1 branch :-)
 
 When I attempt to install freevo, I get the errors below:

 Freevo still works, however, all my fonts are smaller.  Does this have
 to do with the install failures below?
 
 Could be.

 Not sure if clean does quite what you expect as it may not remove all 
 that should be removed. rm -r build  rm -r 
 /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/freevo is really the only real way to 
 clean up an old install.
