[00:58:00] mrproper_: is there a way to watch live tv while recording the same channel?
[00:58:00] mrproper_: using 1 tuner card of course
[00:59:00] Agrajag-: the same channel? why dont you just watch what you're recording?
[01:01:00] JohnnyQuest: you can watch it on the tv
[01:01:00] JohnnyQuest: and record on the computer
[01:01:00] JohnnyQuest: just use a cable splitter
[01:01:00] JohnnyQuest: or hit r on the keyboard while watching a show

[01:11:00] abarbaccia: anybody use nuv2disc – i have a question why it requires resolution to be at least 800x480
[01:11:00] abarbaccia: native TV resolution is 720x480
[01:12:00] abarbaccia: mrproper_, if it says you can't watch tv because it is recording a show, you can go into the recordings menu, and just start watching the recording its making at the moment – which is live (-3 s)

[01:41:00] briand: hiya guys
[01:41:00] briand: my Myth setup is working *wonderfully*  :D
[01:41:00] ** rtsai claps **
[01:41:00] ** briand smiles broadly. **
[01:42:00] briand: of course, this *will* lead to more television watching...
[01:42:00] briand: oh well. ;)
[01:43:00] briand: question: where are the channel icons located? I have all the "normal" channels, but there are a few (mostly local origination and educational access) with no icon... can I create an icon for them and 'insert' it somewhere?
[01:47:00] rtsai: I believe so.
[01:47:00] rtsai: select channum,callsign,name,icon from channel;
[01:47:00] rtsai: should get you started
[01:48:00] mrproper_: anyone know why id be getting: Unmarking repeats from grabber that fall within our new episode window... doing a mythfilldatabase?

[01:51:00] briand: thanks, rtsai... i'll take a look
[01:51:00] SkaMike: Anybody know how well mythtv and v4l play with 64-bit gentoo
[01:52:00] jasoncohen: SkaMike, is there a signigigant performance improvement in general? i'm going to purchase an amd 64 3000+ and i'm wondering whether i should use the i386 or amd64 version of debian
[01:53:00] SkaMike: I don't have one yet, but my friend has an amd64 and he says it's much faster using it as a 64 bit processor
[01:53:00] darkfire: i use gentoo64, and it seems much faster for me
[01:54:00] SkaMike: darkfire, does mythtv and v4l support gentoo64?
[01:54:00] darkfire: yup, this box is my backend and my frontend
[01:54:00] iggy: flash doesn't
[01:54:00] darkfire: no flash
[01:54:00] SkaMike: flash as in macromedia flash?
[01:54:00] darkfire: you can use mozilla-bin to get a 32bit browser that can use flash, supposedly
[01:54:00] iggy: as in the ubiquitous internet animation thing
[01:55:00] SkaMike: Hmm
[01:55:00] JohnnyQuest: jason, i use amd64 windows and its much faster tahn xp pro
[01:55:00] SkaMike: hehe 64-bit windows is so bad
[01:55:00] JohnnyQuest: better than xp pro..
[01:55:00] JohnnyQuest: at least for my purposes
[01:55:00] SkaMike: Not as much driver support and such
[01:55:00] JohnnyQuest: ya
[01:55:00] iggy: I haven't noticed any difference between my box at work that's 64bit and my box at home that's 32 bit
[01:55:00] JohnnyQuest: that is true
[01:55:00] darkfire: SkaMike, for most of the 'not availible in 64-bit' things like flash and ... other things, you can use a 32bit binary and use the 32bit libraries
[01:55:00] JohnnyQuest: but it has all my stuff
[01:55:00] iggy: they both have the exact same speed processor
[01:56:00] JohnnyQuest: i have a 3200+ cuz it was the same price as a 3000+, i like it alot
[01:56:00] SkaMike: My problem is I need a microatx board with onboard s-video. And I found this MSI one with the XPress 200.... But I have had really bad experiences with ATI and linux
[01:56:00] darkfire: SkaMike, the win32codecs, that's what i was trying to think of. no WMV unless you use a 32bit mplayer
[01:57:00] JohnnyQuest: i like ska
[01:57:00] SkaMike: I can live without WMV's... I will just be running mostly myth with this.
[01:57:00] SkaMike: Building an htpc for my parents.
[01:57:00] iggy: darkfire: yeah, that was the other one I was trying to dig up, quicktime I think is included in that
[01:58:00] JohnnyQuest: vlc at least the windows version plays .wmv's...
[01:58:00] darkfire: JohnnyQuest, microsoft didnt give gentoo the 64-bit codec, go figure :-p
[01:59:00] JohnnyQuest: i would believe it
[01:59:00] JohnnyQuest: but vlc doesnt use codecs
[01:59:00] darkfire: iggy, probably, i just got around to emerging a 32-bit mplayer, so i now have all the pron in it's 32-bit glory.
[01:59:00] SkaMike: I just can't wait to build a computer in this case.... *drool* http://silverstonetek.com/products-lc11.htm
[02:00:00] JohnnyQuest: im buliding a custom case for my htpc
[02:00:00] JohnnyQuest: i dont have enough money to buy a case...
[02:00:00] SkaMike: heh... who needs a case? :P
[02:00:00] JohnnyQuest: my htpc is running on an old 1.4 tbird..
[02:00:00] JohnnyQuest: right now its on a mobo tray...
[02:00:00] JohnnyQuest: sides of the case are missing..
[02:01:00] JohnnyQuest: not much need for fans tho...
[02:01:00] JohnnyQuest: so its quiet
[02:01:00] darkfire: SkaMike, wow. that takes full-size pci cards, right?
[02:01:00] SkaMike: yeah
[02:01:00] opello: so, 4400 and family just started recording and mythfrontend just crashed... isn't it supposed to ask me if i want to watch the one being recorded on the tuner i was watching tv on?
[02:02:00] darkfire: opello, yup, it should ask
[02:02:00] JohnnyQuest: myth crashes?
[02:02:00] opello: it didn't :(
[02:02:00] JohnnyQuest: i was using it cuz i thought it was more stable than windows
[02:03:00] darkfire: SkaMike, lol, i cant find out where to buy... because they used flash... heh
[02:03:00] darkfire: how much does that case run?
[02:05:00] JohnnyQuest: 240
[02:05:00] JohnnyQuest: i just looked it up

[02:06:00] JohnnyQuest: multithreading better work this time when i install myth
[02:06:00] darkfire: JohnnyQuest, newegg had it for 140ish
[02:06:00] darkfire: it was 170 tax/shipping and all for me
[02:07:00] JohnnyQuest: o ok
[02:07:00] JohnnyQuest: i just looked at somesite i found
[02:07:00] JohnnyQuest: i idndt use pricewatch or anything
[02:07:00] JohnnyQuest: i have an old compaq lying around
[02:07:00] JohnnyQuest: its a 733 p3...
[02:07:00] JohnnyQuest: can you think of any uses for it?
[02:07:00] JohnnyQuest: other than a bat...

[02:08:00] darkfire: myth? i'd use it for myth.
[02:08:00] JohnnyQuest: does skamike like ska/
[02:08:00] JohnnyQuest: would it run myth?
[02:08:00] darkfire: you could mail it to me, and i'll tell you how well it runs myth.
[02:08:00] JohnnyQuest: lol
[02:08:00] JohnnyQuest: i can barely install myth..
[02:08:00] darkfire: JohnnyQuest, i'd pair it up with a PVR-500, and i imagine it'd do well
[02:09:00] JohnnyQuest: 4th day working on installing it
[02:09:00] SkaMike: Sorry I got disconnected
[02:09:00] JohnnyQuest: have you ever built a whole case darkfire?
[02:09:00] ananke: JohnnyQuest : with a pvr card, that box should be sufficient to work as a frontend and backend.
[02:10:00] JohnnyQuest: ok
[02:10:00] JohnnyQuest: im using a 1.4 ghz amd tbird...
[02:10:00] darkfire: JohnnyQuest, nope
[02:10:00] JohnnyQuest: its a lil choppy..
[02:10:00] JohnnyQuest: with a pvr
[02:10:00] JohnnyQuest: for live tv at least..
[02:10:00] ananke: choppy? what's choppy?
[02:10:00] JohnnyQuest: live tv
[02:10:00] ananke: i use athlon 900mhz, and i don't see anything choppy
[02:11:00] SkaMike: Hehe I set mythtv up on a celeron 700 and it worked fine
[02:11:00] JohnnyQuest: wow
[02:11:00] JohnnyQuest: well
[02:11:00] rtsai: I can just about watch HDTV at 1000MHz
[02:11:00] JohnnyQuest: maybe it was knoppmyth...
[02:11:00] SkaMike: well, just the front end
[02:11:00] JohnnyQuest: im using ubuntu now
[02:11:00] JohnnyQuest: and tryin to install mythtv
[02:11:00] darkfire: JohnnyQuest, mine was a bit choppy when i first set it up (on my 64bit,) make sure DMA is working
[02:11:00] SkaMike: :( @ ubuntu
[02:12:00] JohnnyQuest: you dojnt like ubuntu ska?
[02:12:00] JohnnyQuest: how do i cehck if dma is working?
[02:12:00] SkaMike: hdparm
[02:12:00] ananke: heck, my backend was recording to [and the the frontend was playing from] a p2 350's nfs share.
[02:12:00] darkfire: hdparm (dev)
[02:12:00] SkaMike: hdparm /dev/hda
[02:12:00] SkaMike: and if it's off
[02:12:00] ananke: JohnnyQuest : hdparm -v /dev/device

[02:14:00] ** rtsai laughs at gentoo users' pain **
[02:14:00] darkfire: we have pain?
[02:14:00] SkaMike: Masochism :)
[02:15:00] darkfire: gentoo has not caused me any pain, however it has ruined about a dozen of my favorite stress dolls :(
[02:15:00] JohnnyQuest: omg!!!
[02:15:00] JohnnyQuest: it ccant get myth to install
[02:15:00] JohnnyQuest: i hate this
[02:16:00] darkfire: emerge mythtv ?

[02:17:00] JohnnyQuest: i keep getting teh same error everytime i try to compile mythtv
[02:17:00] darkfire: oh, not gentoo, got it.
[02:17:00] JohnnyQuest: its 'cannot find -lqt-mt'
[02:17:00] JohnnyQuest: and i just installed qt3 with multithreading
[02:17:00] darkfire: do you have the ... nm
[02:17:00] JohnnyQuest: and i know i installed it correctly
[02:18:00] rtsai: you need qt3-dev or whatever.
[02:18:00] JohnnyQuest: and that is?
[02:19:00] rtsai: On my system, I have libqt3-headers libqt3-mt-dev libqt3c102-mt libqt3c102-mt-mysql qt3-dev-tools

[02:31:00] rtsai: JohnnyQuest: you don't have libqt3-mt-dev and you don't have libqt3c102-mt-mysql. I don't have "qt3.doc".
[02:31:00] rtsai: so I would start there
[02:32:00] JohnnyQuest: how do i get libqt3-mt-dev?
[02:34:00] rtsai: same way you installed the rest of the stuff, with synaptic or aptitude or apt-get or whatever you used
[02:34:00] JohnnyQuest: well it says i cant get all the files
[02:34:00] JohnnyQuest: for synaptic
[02:34:00] rtsai: then you need to fix that
[02:34:00] JohnnyQuest: the rest of the stuff i installed by compiling what i got at trolltechs site
[02:34:00] rtsai: why are you compiling all this stuff? Your distro (ubuntu) should have everything ready to go
[02:35:00] JohnnyQuest: it iddnt
[02:35:00] JohnnyQuest: i get the error "cannot find -lqt-mt"
[02:35:00] JohnnyQuest: while compiling mythtv
[02:35:00] rtsai: it's because you don't have libqt3-mt-dev
[02:36:00] JohnnyQuest: and i cant get it, my distro didnt have it ready to go
[02:36:00] rtsai: then you're screwed
[02:36:00] JohnnyQuest: or im having trouble getting it..
[02:36:00] rtsai: but i also use ubuntu and have it, so i know it's not that
[02:36:00] JohnnyQuest: im sure its in some way possible..
[02:36:00] JohnnyQuest: well the synaptic cant dl it..
[02:36:00] rtsai: try aptitude
[02:36:00] JohnnyQuest: its saying cannot get all the files in the qt3-dev pack
[02:37:00] rtsai: then you need to google for that error message and figure out what is wrong; there is no point in continuing if you can't get the complete set of files you need to run a system
[02:37:00] JohnnyQuest: ok
[02:43:00] JohnnyQuest: i figured out why its not working
[02:43:00] JohnnyQuest: its getting and md5sum mismatch
[02:44:00] JohnnyQuest: any way to fix that?

[03:52:00] JohnnyQuest: how long does mythtv take to compile, or how long did it take for you 2?

[03:53:00] iggy: ~30 mins

[04:18:00] mortal5: riksta, what driver are you using for your pvr ?
[04:18:00] riksta: i use dvb
[04:18:00] mortal5: you must have a pvr 250?
[04:19:00] mortal5: *350
[04:19:00] JeepJerk: 350
[04:19:00] JeepJerk: 350 is the only one with video out right?

[04:20:00] rjune: JeepJerk: that link you sent has NOTHING to do with yum
[04:20:00] JeepJerk: I know, its ivtv, but yum installed it
[04:20:00] JeepJerk: and it looks like somewhere I have an incorrect library version
[04:21:00] rjune: Uhm, no. it looks like the ivtv driver doesn't match the kernel
[04:21:00] JeepJerk: ?
[04:21:00] rjune: big surprise, you'ure using atrpms kernel
[04:21:00] rjune: brb
[04:22:00] mortal5: riksta, so you have a pvr 350?
[04:23:00] riksta: NO DVB
[04:23:00] rjune: JeepJerk: ivtv is a kernel driver, not a library. /lib/modules/2.4.22–1.2199.nptl_53.rhfc1.at/updates/drivers/media/video/iv tv.o: unresolved symbol get_user_pages_Rba0bbdf8 <-- that indicates that the driver can't find something in the kernel that it needs
[04:23:00] rjune: JeepJerk: run uname -r and tell me what that returns
[04:23:00] mortal5: ? So your using a pvr 250 w dvb drivers?
[04:23:00] JeepJerk: 2.4.22–1.2199.nptl_53.rhfc1.at

[04:25:00] rjune: see a problem there?
[04:25:00] rjune: JeepJerk: you running fc1?
[04:26:00] JeepJerk: yup
[04:27:00] rjune: if fc4's new utility works well, you might consider moving to it, fc4 is supposed to ship with a new util to keep kernel drivers updated or something
[04:27:00] JeepJerk: cool
[04:27:00] mortal5: is there another driver that i can use w my pvr 250 besides ivtv?
[04:27:00] rjune: anyway, you need release 53 of the ivtv drivers to match your kernel
[04:28:00] JeepJerk: so why did yum let me install the wrong packages?
[04:29:00] rjune: how did you install ivtv?
[04:29:00] rjune: yum install ivtv ?
[04:29:00] JeepJerk: yum upgrade ivtv
[04:29:00] JeepJerk: and it chose its own kernel module
[04:29:00] rjune: you were running kernel release 51 at the time is my guess
[04:30:00] JeepJerk: nope
[04:30:00] rjune: yum install kernel-module-ivtv-`uname -r`
[04:30:00] rjune: what does that do?
[04:31:00] JeepJerk: Cannot find a package matching kernel-module-ivtv-2.4.22–1.2199.nptl_53.rhfc1.at
[04:31:00] JeepJerk: but when I list its there
[04:31:00] rjune: yum list 'ernel-module-ivtv-*'
[04:31:00] rjune: yum list 'krnel-module-ivtv-*'
[04:31:00] darkfire: heh
[04:31:00] rjune: that lists the 53 release driver?
[04:32:00] JeepJerk: well I did yum list | grep ivtv
[04:32:00] JeepJerk: but yeha
[04:32:00] rjune: Hmm, that's interesting,
[04:32:00] rjune: is it wanting athlon or something?
[04:33:00] JeepJerk: actually its smp athalon tho in the listing

[04:43:00] JeepJerk: you'll need to do that too, but that also happens in X
[04:43:00] JohnnyQuest: is it ./mythtv-setup ?
[04:44:00] JohnnyQuest: ok, how do i get into x?
[04:44:00] JeepJerk: depends where you are
[04:44:00] JeepJerk: have you read the docs?

[04:45:00] darkfire: oh.
[04:46:00] JohnnyQuest: i have a window running thats calld root terminal

[05:18:00] gnarface: mrproper_: then what about deleting that video source and making a new video source?
[05:19:00] mrproper_: gnarface: wont that delete my channel config under that video source

[05:21:00] mrproper_: yeah but i dont have any information showing in the epg

[06:05:00] JeepJerk: cause then you have all the packages for myth
[06:06:00] JeepJerk: and they've been tested
[06:06:00] j-rod: they're all available for FC4 too
[06:06:00] j-rod: and they've been tested at least somewhat. :)
[06:06:00] JohnnyQuest: does ubuntu have the packages?

[06:06:00] j-rod: yes, ubuntu has them
[06:06:00] JohnnyQuest: ok

[06:07:00] JohnnyQuest: i had the gdm crash
[06:08:00] JeepJerk: thats the other reason I recommended FC3 is because there's a lot of howto's for it
[06:08:00] JohnnyQuest: ive seen teh howtos for fc3
[06:08:00] JohnnyQuest: ubuntu seemed easier to use to me..
[06:08:00] j-rod: I've seen a few gdm crashes on ubu, most of them when using their 2.6.11–1 kernel
[06:08:00] j-rod: I wrote the howto for FC3. :)
[06:08:00] j-rod: And it'll be moving to FC4 very soon.
[06:09:00] JohnnyQuest: i dont know what kernel im using..
[06:09:00] JeepJerk: uname -r
[06:09:00] j-rod: 2.6.10–5 kernel plays much nicer
[06:09:00] JohnnyQuest: what is a kernel?

[08:19:00] j-rod: hm, does a 1080i HDTV have 540 lines of resolution or 1080...
[08:19:00] j-rod: as in, is the drawing of frame x and x+1 offset spatially as well as temporally?
[08:21:00] gnarface: i would assume that's the whole point of it being interlaced, wouldn't you?
[08:21:00] j-rod: not sure, that's why I asked. :)
[08:21:00] gnarface: oh.
[08:22:00] gnarface: is the 1080 for horizontal or vertical though?
[08:22:00] gnarface: well

[08:22:00] gnarface: if youre trying to de-interlace
[08:23:00] KarlosII (~KarlosII@S0106000f3d5ae683.ed.shawcable.net) Quit ("Leaving")
[08:23:00] j-rod: if 540p is electronically equivalent to 1080i, which I've heard said numerous times, then it seems there are really only 540 lines
[08:23:00] j-rod: in which case, there's no room to offset the frames spatially
[08:25:00] gnarface: i'm not exactly an expert at this, but wouldn't that mean that each frame has 540 lines but they're drawn to 1080 lines by being spliced together in pairs?
[08:25:00] lespiggot: hi, sorry newb question :( I'm looking to set up my 1st myth box, its a P3–800 with 512Mb of Ram. Due to my minamal CPU, should I purchase a PVR350 to compensate?
[08:25:00] j-rod: each frame definitely have 540 lines
[08:25:00] KarlosII (~KarlosII@S0106000f3d5ae683.ed.shawcable.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[08:26:00] gnarface: right
[08:26:00] gnarface: makes sense
[08:26:00] j-rod: outside of that ...
[08:26:00] Darkfire: lespiggot, i'd suggest a PVR, but not nessicarily a pvr-350. the tv-out is overrated. i own one.
[08:26:00] Darkfire: lespiggot, for the money, i would rather have a pvr-500 (2 tuners) and a gfx card with tv-out
[08:26:00] j-rod: a P3–800 w/a GF4 can handle decode of mpeg2 recordings from a PVR-250 no problem too
[08:27:00] lespiggot: Darkfire: the 500 OEM is the same price :)
[08:27:00] gnarface: 1080 interlaced suggests the frames are meant to be combined to form a 1080 line picture made up of data from two seperate pairs. doesn't it?
[08:27:00] j-rod: yes
[08:27:00] lespiggot: I have a nvidea FX5200 w tv out as my gfx card so that should be ok, I guess
[08:28:00] gnarface: so it must be saving bandwidth by not actually storing the blank lines of the frames
[08:28:00] gnarface: which makes perfect sense i suppose
[08:28:00] Darkfire: yeah, the gfx card should let you play fullscreen games via mythtv, which the pvr-350 wont.
[08:28:00] riksta: the overscan is a bit broken in the nvidia drivers i believe
[08:28:00] gnarface: j-rod: are the paired frames also temporally offset?
[08:28:00] j-rod: that much I'm clear on, just not sure if they are painted over the top of one another or offset
[08:28:00] Darkfire: offset, iirc.
[08:28:00] j-rod: that's *exactly* the part I'm trying to figure out. :)
[08:29:00] Darkfire: the bs i used to tell people when i was selling tvs that did interlaced and progressive is that it's all in the way the lines are presented. progressive displays a full image, and interlaced displays half and then half, at least thats what i said, and no one ever corrected me.
[08:29:00] gnarface: j-rod: oh. it should be easy right? take any two frames and splice them together into one and you should see zig-zag edges of moving objects if they're temporally offset, right?
[08:30:00] gnarface: but yea, i think Darkfire is right. its likely they're also temporally offset as well, if its a standard television signal.
[08:31:00] j-rod: they're definitely temporally offset
[08:31:00] Darkfire: gah, temporally means time delay, right?
[08:31:00] j-rod: heh, yeah
[08:31:00] Darkfire: brain isnt working right with that word.
[08:31:00] riksta: temporarily
[08:31:00] Darkfire: yeah, that's the way it was explained to me.
[08:32:00] j-rod: makes sense that they should be spatially offset
[08:33:00] j-rod: but I'm still at odds with the frequent mention I've seen that says 540p is electronically equivalent to 1080i
[08:33:00] Darkfire: i always understood that it was temporally and spatially. every other
[08:33:00] riksta: temporally is a seperate word?
[08:33:00] Darkfire: well, 540p and 1080i are both 540 lines displayed at the same time
[08:34:00] riksta: what is temporally?
[08:34:00] Darkfire: time-ish.
[08:34:00] riksta: shit, i didnt know that
[08:34:00] j-rod: but how does the TV know to offset the x+1th frame in a 1080i signal
[08:34:00] j-rod: and not offset a frame with a 540p signal?
[08:34:00] Darkfire: hrm.
[08:35:00] j-rod: therein lies my confusion. :)
[08:35:00] Darkfire: well, 540p and 1080i could still be eletrically equivilant, provided you have a initilization that occurs before the stream starts, i suppose
[08:36:00] gnarface: j-rod: framerate perhaps?
[08:36:00] mrproper_: I set my channels in the channel editor for dvb (doing a scan for them) they are created then i use a xmlgrabber but the xmlgrabber doesnt put the epg into the existing channels it creates new ones?
[08:36:00] Darkfire: (btw, 'i suppose' is englishly equivilant to 'i dont have a friggin clue, but this sounds good')
[08:37:00] j-rod: hm, could be framerate or refresh rate...
[08:37:00] ** j-rod goes to double-check X config on his HDTV... **
[08:37:00] Darkfire: i would think the framerate for 1080i would have to be faster than 540p to get it to look right.
[08:39:00] j-rod: ModeLine "960x540p" 37.3 960 976 1008 1104 540 542 548 563 +hsync +vsync
[08:39:00] j-rod: ModeLine "1920x1080i" 74.5 1920 1952 2016 2208 1080 1084 1096 1126 -hsync -vsync interlace
[08:39:00] gnarface: i know for sure that typical standard-def television signals are played at basically double framerate to make the interlaced image display correctly
[08:39:00] j-rod: refresh rate is set the same on both, but dot clock is double on 1080i
[08:40:00] Darkfire: slightly less than double.
[08:40:00] gnarface: hmm. totally makes sense ya?
[08:40:00] j-rod: rounding error. :)
[08:40:00] j-rod: yeah, I think it makes sense now...
[08:41:00] j-rod: 2x the dot clock, 2x the traces across the screen, so 1080 lines instead of 540 for the 1080i mode versus the 540p mode?
[08:42:00] j-rod: or something
[08:42:00] j-rod: hm...
[08:42:00] j-rod: no, still 540 lines per frame
[08:42:00] lespiggot: guys, sorry to butt in again, what PVR would you recommend? the 250 is available w r/c but the 150 and 500 are MCE OEMs Ideally I would like to have a second tunner for live TV?? (cpu might not be up to it though :( )
[08:43:00] j-rod: encoding is done by the card
[08:43:00] j-rod: cpu hardly gets used to record
[08:43:00] j-rod: should be able to record and watch on another card at the same time
[08:43:00] j-rod: probably would get into trouble if commercial flagging was running when you tried to watch tv though
[08:43:00] Darkfire: i'd go with the 500, i've heard the OEM works
[08:44:00] j-rod: I have a 500, works just fine
[08:44:00] j-rod: I give up on understanding exactly why 1080i does have 1080 lines
[08:44:00] gnarface: j-rod: still 540 lines per frame in either case but at double the framerate you can put together a 1080 line image

[08:45:00] gnarface: or 3's or whatever
[08:45:00] j-rod: yeah, sorry, meant I still don't understand exactly how the 1080i signal gets its spatially offset between frames versus 540p
[08:45:00] gnarface: in series at double speed
[08:46:00] gnarface: oh.
[08:46:00] j-rod: but I'm convinced they are offset somehow. :)

[17:10:00] ShockValue: it does have one of those normal looking red windows in the front of the remote.... hrm
[17:10:00] SarahEmm: ok.. does it have a window on the front like most remotes? does it work from the next room?
[17:10:00] SarahEmm: ok, do you have to point it at the device?
[17:10:00] ShockValue: good question, let me try that.. one sec
[17:10:00] JonK: SarahEmm: it's the one i have, am willing to get something else if it works

[17:12:00] SarahEmm: ShockValue: it may well use a strange carrier frequency tho
[17:12:00] SarahEmm: a few brands of remotes don't use the standard (36kHz i think?) one, so they won't work with some receivers
[17:12:00] Beirdo: I need sleep
[17:12:00] Beirdo: hehe

[17:12:00] Beirdo: damn you, pirates!
[17:12:00] ShockValue: or something like that
[17:13:00] ShockValue: but if i point my other 2 remotes at it and try it works fine... so im not sure whats up with this remote
[17:13:00] SarahEmm: ShockValue: oh. it's definately IR then, because RF it just wouldn't detect anything
[17:13:00] SarahEmm: it may just be a weird protocol or somesuch

[18:27:00] Ray_: From what I have read so far alot of people seem to be using the 150 model? Now one other question... this might sound weird but am I able to use one of the Hauppauge cards that support tv out and get rid of the video card after install? Or must I have the tv connected to the tv-out on the video card
[18:28:00] kormoc: the 350 works as a videocard out.
[18:28:00] Ray_: what about the 250?
[18:28:00] SarahEmm: 250 has no out, just in
[18:28:00] ananke: Ray_ : i'm not an expert, but my coworker just got a 150, and he had a lot of problems with it. i think he switched to 250
[18:29:00] SarahEmm: ray: the -150 is technically working, as is the -500, but they're new and some people can't get them working at all for various technical reasons
[18:29:00] ananke: Ray_ : and it 'may' be easier to get a cheap nvidia card for your tv out
[18:29:00] SarahEmm: for your best chance at getting everything working first try, i'd stick with the -250 or -350 if you're new to this for now
[18:29:00] SarahEmm: and yes, the -350 has a TV out
[18:29:00] ** ananke uses 350 and nvidia card for tv-out **
[18:30:00] Ray_: Ok... I am just looking for the cheapest solution at the moment, but come to think of it I think the Nvidia card that is in the system I will be using has tv-out...
[18:30:00] ** SarahEmm 's backend is just a backend, so has no out **

[18:38:00] kormoc: Ray_, you could look it up yourself.
[18:38:00] Ray_: I am looking...
[18:38:00] kormoc: ananke, owning a 350 and using the nvidia card for tv out is nutty imho. the 350's out is so much better.
[18:39:00] laga: but it ucks for mythgame.
[18:39:00] laga: sucks*
[18:40:00] kormoc: ahh, point.
[18:40:00] GreyFoxx: It depends on what you use it for. If you don't use withgame it's not a bad solution
[18:41:00] laga: what about divx?
[18:41:00] GreyFoxx: There is an mplayer patch which should make that a viable option
[18:42:00] Ray_: Does the patch support Xvid?
[18:42:00] GreyFoxx: The patch doesn't support any particular codec
[18:42:00] GreyFoxx: It's to tell mplayer how to handle the hardware
[18:42:00] Ray_: oh ok
[18:42:00] ananke: kormoc, i can use the nvidia for other things, and overall i found it easier
[18:42:00] GreyFoxx: And if it's anything like the dxr3 decoder patch it causes the machine to do transcoding on the fly
[18:43:00] ShockValue: well crud.. im trying to switch from mplayer to xine but i cant seem to get xine to play anything (wife insists on DVD menus :)
[18:43:00] ShockValue: comes up, just get a black screen and nothing plays
[18:43:00] Ray_: Does anyone here use a media remote to take the place of the keyboard and mouse? Such as the ATI AIW remotes?
[18:44:00] GreyFoxx: I use a Niveus remote which is a variant of the Remote Wonder and lola remotes
[18:45:00] dsegel: I'm using the Hauppauge remote that came with my 350. Actually, I've learned the codes onto an MX500, but it's esentially the Hauppauge remote
[18:46:00] dsegel: I have a wireless USB keyboard as well but don't need/use it most of the time
[18:46:00] Ray_: How good is the directional pad for taking place of the mouse?
[18:46:00] JonK: I'm trying to get a snapstream firefly working right now
[18:46:00] dsegel: Within MythTV? the d-pad is fine, no problems at all
[18:46:00] dsegel: the only thing I don't like using the remote for is entering search terms
[18:47:00] dsegel: it's like texting on a phone, but not quite as precise, and I don't have the backspace key mapped (yet) so correcting typos is a pain
[18:47:00] Ray_: ouch
[18:48:00] laga: some remotes come with an integrated keyboard
[18:48:00] GreyFoxx: I almost never have to enter any alpha info so I just have a wireless keyboard nearby
[18:48:00] GreyFoxx: laga: Got any examples? I had a link to one that f.lipped open to have a keyboard inside but the link is long dead
[18:48:00] Ray_: Has anyone used the ATI AIW remotes? I'm just curious because of the mini joystick that is on them...
[18:48:00] laga: GreyFoxx: i'm afraid i dont have it anymore. let me look...
[18:49:00] dsegel: BTW – ShockValue – I have xine working with menus and all for playing DVDs and DVD images I have on my server
[18:49:00] dsegel: I used to just rip the files and play them with XBMC, but now I convert them to .iso's so Myth can send them to xine
[18:50:00] laga: GreyFoxx: sorry, i can't find it anymore.
[18:50:00] laga: GreyFoxx: i'll try to remember and get back to you.
[18:51:00] GreyFoxx: cool :)
[18:54:00] Ray_: Hey GreyFoxx, is that Niveus remote still being sold? on the Niveus media site they show the picture of it with some information, but I can't find it in the store

[20:21:00] rah: strange
[20:21:00] rah: even stranger is that there seems to be a plethora of duplicate channels in my EPG :/

[22:04:00] CyberKnet: rob_: when you set up a recording you tell it which recording profile to use. what profiles do you have listed? Probably LiveTV and a few more
[22:04:00] laga: CyberKnet: guess what...one month later, i needed the same screwdriver to open my external hdd and i still hadn't bought it ;)
[22:04:00] rob_: correct, but it doesn't just use the last one I opened right?
[22:05:00] rob_: I must have to tell it to default to a certain profile
[22:05:00] CyberKnet: laga: lol
[22:06:00] CyberKnet: I don't hae any shots of the setup screen
[22:06:00] CyberKnet: you're going to have to answer my question
[22:06:00] CyberKnet: what recording profiles are present?
[22:06:00] elysium702: laga: methinks so, too.. I saw this TECHNOTREND TT PCline Premium C2100, Rev. 2.1 and thinking about buying it.. but it's quite expensive, and i wouldn't like to be forced to use a win32 solution... so i wondered if anyone knew about linux support
[22:06:00] rob_: Oh sorry, Live TV, high quality and low quality
[22:07:00] CyberKnet: By default I'm pretty sure it uses low quality
[22:07:00] CyberKnet: go into low quality and see what codec it is recording as
[22:07:00] laga: elysium702: i hear that the technotrend stuff is well supported in linux...why don't ya give the guys at linuxtv.org a visit?
[22:08:00] rob_: RTjpeg
[22:08:00] rob_: under Software Encoders (V4L) there is also Transcoders menu which I assume doesn't apply right now
[22:08:00] CyberKnet: not right now.
[22:09:00] CyberKnet: what other options do you have other than RTjpeg?
[22:09:00] rob_: MPEG4
[22:09:00] CyberKnet: what processor is in that box?

[22:10:00] SarahEmm: has anyone seen a problem in .18-r1 that sometimes when you hit a commercial break, it goes back to the beginning of the recording?
[22:10:00] rob_: 1.7ghz
[22:11:00] SarahEmm: CBC (a channel) does that here, but no other channels do
[22:11:00] CyberKnet: rob_: !!
[22:11:00] rob_: ?
[22:12:00] rob_: it's a 1.7
[22:12:00] CyberKnet: and the problem was that it is having trouble playing back recordings, right?
[22:12:00] Tommck: a 1.7 should be able to handle low-def stuff
[22:12:00] CyberKnet: Tommck: that's where I was getting to
[22:12:00] rob_: Right it's skipping when I try to watch live TV
[22:12:00] rob_: err or even playback
[22:13:00] rob_: but I assume it's dropping the frames when it's recording
[22:13:00] CyberKnet: be more descriptive about what you see when it is "skipping"

[22:50:00] reel: BUT it is saying it on the tv with a bad sync or something, the picture seems to be repeated about 6 times and rapidly moving
[22:50:00] gnarface: elysium702: ever seen farscape? they only show it on the sci-fi channel. i think you should dedicate your life to watching reruns of farscape, and i think you should start right now.
[22:50:00] Marax: reel, i dunno about nvidia cards, sorry :(
[22:50:00] CyberKnet: mchou: I say that the penalty should be that he should come and scrub your toilet for an hour and a half. It's about as mentally engaging.
[22:51:00] Marax: btw, try running glxgears
[22:51:00] mchou: CyberKnet: just about.
[22:51:00] Marax: you should get atleast 800 fps
[22:51:00] CyberKnet: mchou: civil conversation between us. who'd have thought it?
[22:51:00] reel: Marax: me?
[22:51:00] CyberKnet: mchou: BTW, I have a -500 ordered and should be delivered in a few weeks. (buy.com slow shipping is okay with me this time)
[22:51:00] Marax: yeah
[22:51:00] mchou: hehe, ironic that George Lucas would turn out to be the "uniter"
[22:52:00] SarahEmm: -500 works well for me video-wise :o)
[22:52:00] mchou: he is so bad that he is good.
[22:52:00] reel: I can't load X and the display isn't working properly on the tv. would it still be useful?
[22:52:00] Marax: oh
[22:52:00] Marax: nope
[22:52:00] elysium702: gnarface: dammit. you said if i explain my issue, you could suggest a solution. My providers cable box crashes frequently, is slow, video quality is poor, loud clicks / pops on audio when changing channel (damaging my hi-fi speaker tweeters)... there's lots of reasons I want to build my own box.
[22:52:00] Marax: you'll need x
[22:53:00] mchou: elysium702: what cable box is this?
[22:53:00] gnarface: elysium702: fucking prove i said that. all i did was trick you into wasting more of your time. now what did you learn?

[22:57:00] elysium702: mchou: what is the pvr-x50? I was thinking of a PCLine TT DVB-C card in a dedicated machine.
[22:57:00] dant: elysium702, tried calling telewest and shouting at them?
[22:57:00] mchou: Beirdo: what is this Viridian thing you refer to?

[22:57:00] mchou: elysium702: yeah, nm my earlier comment
[22:58:00] gnarface: Beirdo: yes sir.
[22:58:00] SarahEmm: mchou: it's one of the worlds in Puzzle Pirates.
[22:58:00] elysium702: dant: they are really unuseful... they even denied knowledge of an IR blaster for their own cable box which is stated in the manual so that I might connect a TiVo or something similar.
[22:58:00] dant: elysium702, the IR blaster is to control a VCR afaik
[22:59:00] dant: elysium702, I used to have a di4000t with Tivo... needed an IRDA dongle I think to make the Tivo control it
[22:59:00] elysium702: dant: i meant ir eye or whatever it's called... this is going back a while.
[22:59:00] elysium702: dant: that's the thing.
[22:59:00] reel: can someone try www.atrpms.net please and tell me if they can connect?
[22:59:00] elysium702: dant: i gave up on telewest helping a long long time ago.
[23:00:00] dant: Tivo supplied that... but it would have been nice to use the IR In socket on the back
[23:00:00] SarahEmm: fine for me reel
[23:00:00] reel: i hate my cable company. we get selective outages >:|
[23:02:00] gnarface: elysium702: does everything about the UK suck this much?
[23:02:00] elysium702: gnarface: most things, unfortunately.
[23:02:00] dant: I hate my cable company, I've been without service now for 2 years and they still haven't fixed it
[23:02:00] gnarface: i don't know what i'd do without my direcTivo

[23:04:00] gnarface: Marax: i think myth stores just about everything in the 'mythconverg' database. some basic knowlege of browsing and editing databases through the mysql command-line console would help you alot.

[23:05:00] elysium702: dant: how is it? you used TUTV, too?
[23:06:00] gnarface: in fact, all of europe is on my shitlist
[23:06:00] gnarface: do you have any idea how hard it is to find a shower with a CURTAIN in pairs?
[23:06:00] gnarface: er, paris
[23:06:00] Marax: gnarface, damn... i have 4000 mp3's and making playlists would take a while
[23:06:00] dant: gnarface, there is 'Sky'... but I binned them after they spent a year replacing parts of my dish then deciding I was outside of warranty and they'd charge me to come out again
[23:07:00] dant: elysium702, not bad, not used TUTV, getting better tho, MM and E4 have come to freeview now too
[23:07:00] gnarface: dant: lol. i installed my directv dish myself. sometimes it helps to be self-sufficient.
[23:07:00] dant: gnarface, in paris isn't the shower over the toilet?
[23:07:00] gnarface: Marax: hmm. it does seem daunting but why not just write a perl script to do it?
[23:07:00] elysium702: dant: wasn't that some kinda out-of-warranty scam they were pulling?
[23:08:00] gnarface: dant: hahahha. i've seen that in some places yes. its like all their bathrooms are still stuck in the middle ages.
[23:08:00] dant: gnarface, for analogue sat I did the install of the dish myself, worked fine for 5 years until they moved most of my channels to digital only
[23:08:00] mchou: dant: haha. or in the toilet (as in bidet)

[23:08:00] gnarface: dant: digital satellite is easier to hook up but i think you need to be more precise with the alignment.
[23:08:00] dant: elysium702, don't know if others were affected, but I told them to bin it and went with cable...
[23:09:00] gnarface: dant: with directv its easy if you have two people and two cellphones, because you can adjust the dish while watching the signal meters in the decoder box.
[23:09:00] dant: gnarface, sky in the UK put up mini dishes (43cm) as part of the digital push, I'm sure this was half the problem for me, just didn't get the signal strength needed where the 80cm dish was fine before they took it away
[23:10:00] gnarface: dant: my dish is small too. it really helps to have two people. once you tweak the dish so all the signal levels are within 95% you're solid.
[23:11:00] gnarface: dant: it also helps to have a decent compass
[23:11:00] gnarface: dant: and an unobscured view of the sky, but that goes without saying.
[23:12:00] dant: at the end of the day, I paid them about $400 to do it and was paying aroudn $100 a month for the service, they had a year to get it right, but when they asked for $100 to come out to try fix it again I'd had enough

[23:13:00] dant: As I said, for analogue, no problems, for my girlfriend's folks, I had no problems, for my dad's dual dish setup, no problems, but when I decide to get specialists to do mine, no end of problems... moral of the story.......
[23:13:00] gnarface: "specialist" = "bozo"
[23:14:00] gnarface: er, that'd be a ==
[23:14:00] dant: in the UK, Sky == monopoly
