Kaa modules (required for Freevo 1):
git clone git://github.com/freevo/kaa-base.git
git clone git://github.com/freevo/kaa-imlib2.git
git clone git://github.com/freevo/kaa-display.git
git clone git://github.com/freevo/kaa-metadata.git

Kaa is the media framework used by both Freevo-1 and Freevo-2 and is hosted on GitHub. Currently the project is going through a transition stage, and while Kaa is hosted on GitHub, Freevo itself is presently still in our svn repository.

SVN Freevo 1:
svn co svn://svn.freevo.org/freevo/branches/rel-1 freevo-1

Freevo-rel1 contains the latest additions to the Freevo-1 code and may include experimental or non working code.

SVN Freevo 2 (developers only, often broken):
svn co svn://svn.freevo.org/freevo/trunk freevo-2

Freevo-2 is a complete rewrite of Freevo. There is currently no TV recording or viewing support but the rest of the system is well worth checking out.
