I looked at the code, and requests to record a program, that has a conflict, or just ignored. How do people think this should be handled? Should an intermidiary page come up and say "You have a conflict." Should the record go through and "Currently Scheduled Programs" could mark the conflict in red. Any other ideas? thanks chad |

>When I checked the record.output, this is one of the recordings
I have a possiblity on this bug. When you do a record it calls a function
called record in lib/functions.php. The function first checks to see if
you can record this show, checks for conflicts etc. It also checks to see
if you have program set to record that has the same name and subtitle.
$result = $sql->query("SELECT * FROM program WHERE
record='1' ".
"AND pname='".addslashes($pname)."'
AND subtitle='".addslashes($sub).
"' AND subtitle != ''");
$num_rows = $sql->num_rows($result);
Your Star Trek epesodes should all of the same name. They SHOULD have
different subtitles, but that is not always the case. If they all had a
subtitle of say "Star Trek Marathon" then only the first one would record.
Webvcr would think the others where dupes and not mark them for record.
I know this happens with South Park. All of the recent episodes of South
Park have the EXACT same subtile "Story of four boys from Colorado". That
means webvcr only lets me record one of them a week.
So is this a feature or is it a bug?
thanks

> AMEN! I have that same problem _every single stinking time_ the > listings get updated. Then I have to go through to the Favorites page and re-set the channel for all my Favorites. > I have a theory on this. The program keys everything off of a stations sid. The sid is the primary key of the station table. It is just an auto increment field. So channel 12 may have an sid of say 10. The sid not the channel is reference in all other tables. Whenever you run listing.pl the station table is deleted and and re-populated. If you insert the exact same stations then no problem. Here is what they may look like sid channel station name 1 3 ABC 2 4 CBS 3 9 NBC 4 12 FOX Your favorite is on FOX and the favorite table referecense sid 4. Now lets say you get a new channel. When you re-run listings.pl the stations table will be re-loaded. This is where the problem comes in. sid channel station name 1 3 ABC 2 4 CBS 3 9 NBC 4 10 Disney 5 12 FOX The sid for FOX has changed, but none of the references in the other tables have been changed, now they all point to the wrong channel. The favorites table now thinks your program is on Disney instead of Fox. favorites table now thinks your program is on Disney instead of Fox. I believe a quick fix would be to make the sid and channel fields contain the same value. This would require a database change. Changing the sid field in station to an int(11) instead of an auto-increment. Channels should not be duplicated so that should not be a problem. Chuck, is it ok if I make that change in CVS and let everyone test it out? Chuck, is it ok if I make that change in CVS and let everyone test it out? |

I know we have discussed it before, but never with technical details. I had several programs scheduled for the next three days. webvcrplus came along and whacked about 2/3rds of the shows I had scheduled. I went in and tried to re-add them, and they don't show (as if the time slot is still occupied). This happened to me a few weeks back, and I ended up noticing about 5 minutes before something I wanted to record started. I ended up missing it. Is it possible to clear that timeslot? It appears that while nothing shows up in that timeslot on the web page, the database has that timeslot blocked out. If I can get a fix for it before midnight tomight (EDT) I would appreciate it, since one of the shows that got whacked was part 1 of a 2 part episode.

As I was discussing with Lance Simmons, a listings download on my 56k connection takes about an hour and a half. At work, I have multiple OC12s, so the same download would take 3 or 4 seconds. So I was thinking about not only the listings.pl import stuff (which, I agree, you could probably rip out the code and modularize it), but also on the settings page, you could add a toggle to _either_ import or download, so you don't get a slow download stepping on your freshly downloaded listings. > If we go this route, I'd prefer that the import functionality be > abstracted to a module and have listings.pl and (the future) import.pl > reference it.

Would it be safe to describe that as some sort of a listings import/export utility? I'd bet the code to do that is already there in listings.pl. We'd just have to rip out that part to parse an existing XML document. If we go this route, I'd prefer that the import functionality be abstracted to a module and have listings.pl and (the future) import.pl reference it. My reasoning is that I don't want to add any more complexity to listings.pl, but at the same time, I don't want to maintain two methods of importing XML data to the database. -Chuck -- Quantum Linux Laboratories - ACCELERATING Business with Linux Technology * Education | -=^ Ad Astra Per Aspera ^=- * Integration | http://www.quantumlinux.com * Support | ch...@qu... |

Chuck, In your copious free time =), if you get a chance, I thought of a feature I'd like to see included. Since I have 56k at home and multiple OC12s at work, I have devised a system were I can upgrade my Debian boxes by running an apt-get update, printing the URLs to a file, then grabbing that file at work and dumping the actual debs onto my laptop to take home. Could an approach like this be taken with webvcrplus? I have xmltv on my box at work, so if I could download the listings.xml at work then have a page to import it into webvcrplus, that would work well for me. Thoughts? -- --Brad ============================================================================ Bradley M.

The interesting thing, in my case, is that all of my favorites are still set to defaults (any channel/everyday/anytime/all episodes), and it still makes no difference. The other thing is that I manually selected record from the listings (now on tv) page, and it didn't highlight them, even when I selected Force Record. I'm wondering if it is something to do with xmltv...I'm running a Debian/sid box with xmltv 0.5.10-2 and webvcrplus 0.9.2.7. > I sent a note to this list on May 3 describing this problem, which has > continued unabated.

This is a known issue that should be going away in the next release. Right now, we're racing towards the deadline on our book so I'm probably going to be a bit tardy on the updates.

I was wondering about error messages and so forth with recording. I've noticed several cases where programs I have scheduled have not been recorded. In one case, I went through the "All Scheduled Movies" page, which displays movies by channel by date. What wound up happening was that I scheduled one movie to record, say, 7pm to 9pm for example. A couple of days later, I noticed another movie which was scheduled for, say, 6:30 to 9 on the same day. When I clicked on the second one, there was no notification of the conflict, and whats more, the index page had removed _both_ movies from the recording schedule. Is there some way that the program can at least notify of a conflict in no uncertain terms? A conflict resolution page would be nice, but not necessary. I had another issue today. I'm not sure exactly what happened, but Star Trek is one of my favorites. Today, SciFi had a Trek marathon, however, I had already recorded and burned several of the episodes. So I unselected those episodes, but not the ones I didn't have. In the meantime, I got an xmltv download, and had to unselect them again. Well, today, the day of the marathon, I noticed that there was nothing scheduled to record till tomorrow...None of the trek episodes would record, even when selecting or force recording them from the listings.

I'm having a slight problem getting webvcr+ to record. I can record from the command line using the following: $ffmpeg /tmp/example.avi $ffmpeg /tmp/example.mpeg both of those options records whatever channel xawtv is set to. If this works from the command line - webvcr+ should record; however, it does not. When I select a program to record which is either already on or upcoming, it shows up as being schedule but then nothing happens. Obviously, there is something I'm missing here. Does anyone else use ffmpeg to do their capturing? Here are my settings Video Recorder Configuration Channel Changing Program - xawtv Recording Quality (max 100) - 80 Key frames (max 30)- 29.97 Audio Bitrate - 64 Recording Source - television Norm - NTSC(USA) Codec - MPEG1 Bitrate - 400 Crispness - ? Recording Program Presets - Custom Recording Program - ffmpeg -r #KEYFRAMES# -s 352x240 -b #VBITRATE# -ab #ABITRATE# -t #TIME# -vcodec #FFMPEGCODEC# -y #OUTPUT# -i #SOURCE# I'm assuming my Custom line is totally incorrect. I've done a bunch of googling but haven't really found anything. Also, does anyone know of a GUI for schedule recording that isn't web-based. I've toyed with MythTV but it's overkill for me. I don't need all the features. I am looking for something less bloated - webvcr+ fits that but could also do without the web interface. thanks Chris |

I can capture TV from the command line using ffmpeg alone making an avi file or mpg format. i can get a capture just by doing ffmpeg /tmp/sample.mpg Now when i fill out the video settings in webvcrplus i choose the FFMPEG codec and choose mencoder for the recording program. When I go to schedule a recording, nothing happens at the time it should. Now are there addition settings i need to set with mencoder or ffmpeg??? What are some common setups people are using to record? I am curious to how everyone is setting up the recording settings. chris |

Did you go to your web page and finish configuring your settings before

When I install webvcr+, it works fine for about a week. Then, something goes wrong. I think it happens when the weekly listings script runs, but I'm not sure. Anyway, shows that I've set to record fail, because the #STATION# and #TIME# variables become null. All the recordings fail. In the past, I've "solved" this problem by reinstalling webvcr+, but it would be nice to find out what the source of the problem is and fix it. Has anyone else ever encountered this? -- .~. /V\ Lance Simmons /( )\ Irving, Texas ^^-^^ |

When ffmpeg converts a .qt file, there is no video, only audio. This is the command line that is being used, though I have changed codecs a few times to test various ones: /usr/bin/ffmpeg -vcodec mpeg4 -acodec mp3 -i test.qt -b 800 -sameq -ab 128 test.avi When I try to play the avi in mplayer, I get this: Playing /home/ian/test.avi Cache fill: 8.59% (720896 bytes) AVI file format detected.
