I created a script file, archive.php, that will enable you to browse your archived XviD files from within Mythweb and administer your collection by letting you delete the videos. This is similar to the myth2ipod article, http://knoppmythwiki.org/index.php?page=VideoIpod , but I am only adding a menu item to /myth/video/archive.

I modified the script, m2iweb.php, to work better with MythWeb in R5F27 and updated the instructions a little, but with the new location of header.php.

Code:
/usr/share/mythtv/mythweb/modules/_shared/tmpl/default/header.php


The latest archive.php can be found in Knoppmythwiki here with the logo image:
http://www.macrossplusinc.com/files/myt ... rchive.zip
or
http://www.knoppmythwiki.org/index.php? ... DArchiving

P.S. I used the same code and changed some items ('mp4' to 'avi' and 'ipod' to 'XviD' and logo image).

Thanks. I have never been able to delete my videos from the myth frontends that are stored in /myth/video which is a mounted samba share to my server. I thought it was because of the lack of features of the video browser or listing views (even using the keyboard D doesn't work)... They are owned and grouped to mythtv and I can do it from the command line as user mythtv.

This may be the only way I can delete videos without command line... Isn't that strange? Should there be an easy fix to allow deleting of music and videos with a button from the remote.

I also have a samba share to my /myth/videos and have found it very irritating for years that I can not delete them from the frontend... I may install this just for that purpose....
Let us know if you figure this out. I assumed the D key isn't meant for the video browser....

I can delete videos from the Video Manager using the D key. It doesn't work in the browser though. I have never tried to delete music.

Antebios,

In the XviDArchiving wiki page, you asked about video resolutions for HDTV. I have run the suggested "mplayer atscrecording.mpg -vf cropdetect" command and have some data for you - from a 1080i HDTV broadcast and from a 720p HDTV broadcast.
Code:
Playing /myth/tv/1202_20071118000000.mpg.
TS file format detected.
VIDEO MPEG2(pid=49) AUDIO A52(pid=53) NO SUBS (yet)!  PROGRAM N. 1
VIDEO:  MPEG2  1920x1080  (aspect 3)  29.970 fps  65000.0 kbps (8125.0 kbyte/s)

[VO_TDFXFB] This driver only supports the 3Dfx Banshee, Voodoo3 and Voodoo 5.

==========================================================================

The selected video_out device is incompatible with this codec.
Try appending the scale filter to your filter list,
e.g. -vf spp,scale instead of -vf spp.
VDecoder init failed :(

I suspect that your archiving script can be edited for these resolutions and put into one of the user job slots and used to transcode programs to HDTV h.264, in order to obtain smaller disk files?
