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.

I figured out what my problem was. I fat-fingered the fstab file.
Instead of /dev/dvd, I had /dev/dev. Works fine now that I

I've had the same on pal. My sollution was to change the res e.g. 720x576.
So try some res's. If someone had a good sollution for this i'd like it too,
800x600 is a bit better in the menu's for vid's it's not better since pal
doesn't do 800x600 as far as i know.
Also does anyone knows what's the b

Hi Dirk!
Sorry to bother you but could you give me a small hint how I can map the
Shutdown Event to the Power button?
I tried to add the following line " POWER= Event('SHUTDOWN') " to
freevo without success!
Thanks in advance

this sounds like a unterminated video problem. if you are handy with a
soldering iron and made your own cable, put a 75 ohm resistor across the
video signal pin (center of the RCA cable) to ground. Or modify a RCA cable
to have a 75 ohm resistor across the center and outside.. this will either

VERY washed out. There is a noticeable difference when I tune my VCR or
cable box to a channel (both of which look about the same) and switch to
the Freevo. This is particularly noticeable in dark scenes (where the

If you are going to use overscan, then the interface should be designed to

I think there needs to be overscan specific version.

Hi,
the two messages do not mean anything harmful. The first is only an information. The
second just tells you that your remote control won't work (if you have one...).
You also do not need a TV card to make freevo work.
Freevo always writes some log files. On my system, they can be found in /tm
yes I have, and I also need to make the GUI image smaller somehow.
overscan settings will not take negative numbers so those are useless (I
want a -20 setting!)
I am using the runtime + 1.4 (1.4.1 has a bug that will not let it run
outside the home directory) on a slackware 9.1 install.
so yes i
I've installed Freevo onto a Slackware 9 system compiling all dependent libs without
any problems. Starting freevo gives me a flash of the system before exiting with the

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.

Hi,
I have just encountered some problems when trying to download files with the freevo
webserver.
When clicking on the download link, it did load about the first 64k, but not further.
In the webserver log file (/tmp/freevo/webserver-1001.log) I found
