Hi,
I just come back from holidays, and i started by a freevo
svn update on
my testbed.
Now, I encounter a new trouble (I allread had two before my
holydays,
but didn't have time to check).
Since my last update ( update was done yesterday, the
preceding update
was dome three weeks before), I cannot any more show tv :
here is the
error message :
2007-07-27 20:28:19,749 ERROR childapp.py (138): Cannot
run
"/usr/bin/xine --hide-gui -pq -g -B --geometry
1024x768+0+0 --no-splash
--no-lirc --post='pp:quality=10;expand' -V xv -A oss
--stdctl
pvr:///home2/media/tmp/xine-buf-": [Errno 2] No such
file or directory
I only read very fast the last messages on the devel list,
but this give
me a hint : I just modified the line 134 of childapp.py :
self.child = Popen(command, shell=*True*,
stdin=PIPE,
stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE)
(I put shell=True) and the tv works again.
I suppose that this is fairly version independant, but for
the tracking,
I'm running the latest freevo svn on a mandriva 2007 spring
version. My
kernel is 2.6.17-13mdv and ivtv (self compiled) is 0.7.4.
xine is 0.99.4
. My system is in French.
Now my two older troubles (in case they are linked) :
Switching between SECAM and PAL in the tv channel list.
(This could easily be a human mistake, I don't know).
On my antenna network, most channels are broadcasted in
SECAM. But two
of them are broadcasted in PAL. Here are the relevant part
of my
local.conf file :
TV_IVTV_OPTIONS = {

]
( The group 0 is for standard secam TV, the group 1 should
be for PAL TV
and the group 2 is for the conposite entry of the PVR-150
card,
connected to the cable decoder)

.......
('C29.telepoche.com', 'N230 Mezzo',
'0',

('Composite', 'Decodeur NOOS',
'0',
'', '2'),
]
This doesn't work : Even if I start directly (just after a
cold boot) on
channel 'TV5' or 'Yvelines', the tv start on the rigth
channel, but in SECAM
Again, this could be a configuration trouble, don't mess to
much time on
this one (exept if you thing there's a bug here).
Latest point, more 'buggish like', maybe :
The first time I start to watch TV, freevo does some
settings on the
ivtv card (SECAM, good entry, and so on). If I stop to watch
TV, and
selecat a nother channel, no more settings are done. At
this time, I
do like this feature  To watch
my decoder, I start one time the TV
trough freevo, I stop it, and then use ivtvctl to select the
good entry
and the pal mode. Then, I can start freevo (on any channel
!) and show
my decoder. But I'm not totally sure that this is by design
!
Thanks,
Pascal
