[00:10:00] | iggy: | what? commercials or my choice of cards? |
[00:10:00] | Beirdo: | on commercials |
[00:11:00] | iggy: | yeah, they suck |
[00:11:00] | Beirdo: | I have 84 programs on my machine |

[00:11:00] | Beirdo: | yeah, but do you watch TV much lately? |
[00:12:00] | Beirdo: | I sure don't |
[00:12:00] | iggy: | not much at all, mostly because I'm too lazy to setup my other computer, so I'm always using the mythtv box/server as my main workstation |
[00:13:00] | smoke_: | my mythgallery is having issues with the preview image.. am i missing something? |
[00:13:00] | Beirdo: | time to mass delete some Andromeda |

[00:13:00] | Kronuz: | hello |
[00:14:00] | SlicerDicer-: | xris, yeah but my flowers are living now due to now slugs |
[00:14:00] | SlicerDicer-: | it was nasty cleaning my yard up |
[00:14:00] | SlicerDicer-: | but that stuff you told me about worked great |
[00:14:00] | Kronuz: | hey, whi has had experience setting up a PVR350 to work with the TV tuner? ('cause I can only make it work for S-Video/Composite inputs, my tuner is always showing non-tuned noise) |
[00:14:00] | xris: | SlicerDicer-: slugs will come back, but that Worry Free stuff works great to prevent it. |
[00:15:00] | xris: | sprinkle a little around every couple of weeks. |
[00:15:00] | SlicerDicer-: | xris, yeah I got to apply it like once every 4 weeks |
[00:15:00] | xris: | haven't had a problem since I did that. |
[00:15:00] | SlicerDicer-: | they were killing my flowers and I put down nearly 200$ worth of flowers I was pissed |
[00:15:00] | Kronuz: | is there a way you know I can test the tuner input directly from ivtv? |
[00:15:00] | SlicerDicer-: | Kronuz, you more than likely dont have the imput set right |
[00:15:00] | SlicerDicer-: | or did you set the imput? |
[00:16:00] | Kronuz: | SlicerDicer: using myth-setup, I set it to channel 3 |
[00:16:00] | Kronuz: | (as from where the signal is comming from my decoder box) |
[00:16:00] | xris: | SlicerDicer-: that sucks.. worst I lost was a few pepper plants and herbs. |
[00:16:00] | Beirdo: | there. |
[00:16:00] | Beirdo: | 61 programs now |
[00:16:00] | SlicerDicer-: | well you would more than likely want to put svideo with that Kronuz |
[00:16:00] | SlicerDicer-: | then get a rs232 and control the cablebox that way |
[00:16:00] | SlicerDicer-: | its really simple if you have comcast |
[00:17:00] | poonj: | do you guys have amplifiers for your cable input before splitting them for multiple tv tuners? |
[00:18:00] | Beirdo: | yep |
[00:18:00] | poonj: | did you buy a high end one beirdo? |
[00:18:00] | Beirdo: | nope |
[00:18:00] | ** xris is happily rid of cable. ;) ** | |
[00:18:00] | Beirdo: | heheeh, I have a south park... douche and turd |
[00:18:00] | Beirdo: | where they were bashing Bush and Kerry (indirectly) |
[00:19:00] | Beirdo: | hehe |
[00:19:00] | Beirdo: | oh, xris... |
[00:19:00] | SlicerDicer-: | xris, why? |
[00:19:00] | mishehu: | Beirdo: Vote or die, bitch! |
[00:19:00] | Beirdo: | watched the Daily Show with Howard Dean on it. the Democrats really fucked up |
[00:19:00] | SlicerDicer-: | xris, the comcast digital cable rocks with mythv |
[00:19:00] | Kronuz: | SlicerDicer: that's how I had it, but for some reason I'm having two problems on that scenario: first the PVR350 is giving me a shadow, and second... I'm getting too much noise on the audio... a constant buzzing, bee-like sound |
[00:19:00] | xris: | SlicerDicer-: and costs twice as much as my Dish setup. |
[00:19:00] | SlicerDicer-: | xris, ahh I cant have a dish here |
[00:20:00] | smoke_: | is anyone having issues with mythgallery and it not displaying the preview images? |
[00:20:00] | SlicerDicer-: | xris, and cable is cheaper for me than dish for some reason... |
[00:20:00] | Kronuz: | SlicerDicer: I was hoping using the tuner would fix at least the noise in the audio, 'cause if I disconnect the RCA cables, the noise is gone |
[00:21:00] | Beirdo: | sounds like ground loop issues |
[00:21:00] | SlicerDicer-: | I would bet the noise is caused by something else but I dont know for sure |
[00:21:00] | Kronuz: | Beirdo: ground loop? |
[00:21:00] | Beirdo: | *ground loop* |
[00:21:00] | Beirdo: | yes |
[00:21:00] | Beirdo: | is your PVR machine grounded to the same plug as the cable box? |
[00:22:00] | xris: | SlicerDicer-: then you're lucky. I pay a little under $50 for 180 Dish channels. analog cable here is $50–52 after taxes, digital is $70+ after tax for the basic setup. |
[00:22:00] | Kronuz: | I thought it has something to do with bad grounding, but I tried to fixed it... |
[00:22:00] | Kronuz: | hmm... Beirdo: yes |
[00:22:00] | Beirdo: | hmm, that's the usual cause. |
[00:22:00] | Beirdo: | not sure then |
[00:23:00] | Kronuz: | Beirdo: they both should have a common ground, right? |
[00:23:00] | SlicerDicer-: | xris, I have every channel so its not any cheaper |
[00:23:00] | Beirdo: | yes |
[00:23:00] | Kronuz: | (is that's what usually fixes the issue?) |
[00:23:00] | SlicerDicer-: | the premium and what not xris all that |
[00:23:00] | xris: | SlicerDicer-: ahh, yeah, I don't do premium stuff, so didn't bother to compare at that point. |
[00:23:00] | Kronuz: | but, mine have the same ground... it's really weird :( |
[00:24:00] | SlicerDicer-: | xris, its the same cost really with premium cable or sat |
[00:24:00] | Kronuz: | I almost could bet the shadow on the video is part of the same problem |
[00:25:00] | Kronuz: | Beirdo: did you mean the phisical ground, right? |
[00:25:00] | xris: | SlicerDicer-: could be. |
[00:25:00] | Beirdo: | yes |
[00:26:00] | Kronuz: | Beirdo: yeah, then they both are :( |
[00:26:00] | SlicerDicer-: | xris, I also have 4 cableboxes hehe |
[00:26:00] | Kronuz: | for the tuner you don't need some extra module, that I might be missing loading? |
[00:26:00] | Beirdo: | so you have other cables you can try? |
[00:26:00] | Beirdo: | might just be crappy grounds in the cables |
[00:26:00] | Kronuz: | Beirdo: I have tried different cables :( |
[00:27:00] | Kronuz: | there's always something really weird about these noises... |
[00:27:00] | Kronuz: | some times they're there, some times they aren't |
[00:28:00] | Kronuz: | for instance when I was testing the computer out of the case (a few weeks back) it didn't seem to have that noise (the shadow on the video was there tho') |
[00:29:00] | smoke_: | what do i press to start ripping the dvd in dvd import? |
[00:29:00] | Kronuz: | (and the shadow is only there on the capture, not on the output to the TV, nor on the signal out of my decoder) |
[00:29:00] | xris: | gotta love this: nuvexport --require_cutlist --mode=xvid --title . --confirm |
[00:30:00] | xris: | ok, off to do family stuff... later. |

[02:19:00] | Kronuz: | ('cause I think that might be the problem) |
[02:22:00] | Kronuz: | has anyone else experienced ghost effects in the PVR-350/250 capture card? |
[02:22:00] | Kronuz: | I'm using S-Video, but I get up to four parallel ghost images |
[02:23:00] | Kronuz: | (that's the main reason I want to try coaxial input... to see if the ghosts go away) |
[02:26:00] | Kronuz: | hmm.. I'm trying composite |
[02:27:00] | Kronuz: | someone in a forum said: "I've often found that ghosting effect and over-saturation in video signals is due to the signal being too strong." |

[02:34:00] | Kronuz: | :( |
[02:35:00] | Kronuz: | hey DarthDam, do you by any chance use a PVR350 or 250? |

[02:37:00] | DarthDam: | Got a pvr 350 today. hm That was yesterday |
[02:38:00] | Kronuz: | or does anyone know what S-Video -> Composite converter does the card use? (can't remember if it came with one in the box) |
[02:38:00] | Kronuz: | DarthDam: cool :) |
[02:38:00] | Kronuz: | hey, does it come with a S-Video to Composite converter? |

[07:55:00] | kusznir: | Its as if one of the keys I hit changed Myth's command set. |
[07:55:00] | kusznir: | And I can't figure out what key it was that did this. |
[07:56:00] | kusznir: | Right now, for example, I can't pause anymore. The "p" key has no effect. Neither does the "m" key. |
[07:57:00] | kusznir: | err...the P key does have an effect; now it trys to change audio track. |

[16:35:00] | roam: | Tommck_: I would just use it as a backend. |
[16:35:00] | roam: | Tommck_: and it would use DVB-T Cards. |
[16:37:00] | Tommck_: | roam – I'm just not sure if it'll handle it all... seems a little too slow to me.. |
[16:37:00] | Tommck_: | it's just a gut feeling |
[16:37:00] | AlHaz: | for DVB all it has to do is copy the stream to disk |
[16:37:00] | AlHaz: | transcoding in the background to save disk space would be time consuming but it'd get there eventually |
[16:38:00] | Tommck_: | roam – how many cards? |
[16:39:00] | AlHaz: | the maximum symbol rate of a dvb-t stream is pretty negligible in the grand scheme of pci |
[16:39:00] | AlHaz: | what you'd have to look out for is the fact that the onboard ide is probably limtied to udma-2 and slower than snot |
[16:39:00] | roam: | Tommck_: One for now, maybe two in the future, but not more. |
[16:40:00] | Tommck_: | cool. |
[16:40:00] | AlHaz: | so, get a pci raid card for your harddrives |
[16:40:00] | roam: | AlHaz: Yes, it's udma2. |
[16:40:00] | Tommck_: | I just always hesitate to run machines that slow, in general |

[16:40:00] | AlHaz: | roam: No, it'd just annoy me |
[16:40:00] | AlHaz: | I hate slow disks . . . |
[16:41:00] | roam: | I would like to use that machine cause it's always running anyway and uses much less energy than my desktop. |
[16:41:00] | AlHaz: | recording a whole transponder would be a bit of a stretch but you could do 2 or 3 program streams no problem |

[16:41:00] | AlHaz: | and streaming it over the network |
[16:42:00] | roam: | Tommck_: It's an internal Server for our lan. |
[16:42:00] | AlHaz: | transcoding programs to divx in the background for archival might be a real chore |
[16:42:00] | roam: | Tommck_: Doing some Web and Database stuff, but not too intensive. |
[16:42:00] | Tommck_: | roam – are you continuing to use it as that? |
[16:42:00] | AlHaz: | but just getting the streams off the air is a light-weight task |
[16:42:00] | roam: | Tommck_: and E-Mail. |
[16:42:00] | roam: | Tommck_: Yes. |

[16:43:00] | roam: | Tommck_: Why not? |
[16:43:00] | Tommck_: | I don't think I would want it trying to run an email server, file sharing and a database with that |
[16:44:00] | roam: | It's not doing filesharing. |
[16:44:00] | Tommck_: | ok... sorry... but add web server to the list |
[16:44:00] | roam: | and it just servers imap mailboxes internally. |
[16:44:00] | Tommck_: | AlHaz – you still think it'll work running multipler servers? |
[16:44:00] | roam: | Tommck_: but very rarely. |
[16:45:00] | Tommck_: | well, make your own choice |
[16:45:00] | AlHaz: | roam: Yeah. My experience is DVB-S and ATSC, but the normal method is to tune a transponder and then play specific pids from it. No reason you can't get the whole transponder |
[16:45:00] | AlHaz: | in DVB-S at least, the transponder is an mpeg transport stream containing several program streams |
[16:46:00] | AlHaz: | they vary up to about 22 megabit |
[16:46:00] | AlHaz: | when you play a particular live stream, you're demuxing out the one program you want |
[16:47:00] | AlHaz: | if you were to cat /dev/dvb/whatever it is to a file, that should theoretically be the whole transport stream |
[16:48:00] | AlHaz: | Tommck_: Depends how *much it's doing |
[16:48:00] | AlHaz: | Tommck_: But the dvb data transfer is going to be a busmaster memory copy with less significance than an ethernet card |
[16:49:00] | AlHaz: | demuxing isn't all that hard |
[16:49:00] | AlHaz: | but this presupposes that you're saving the mpeg streams as they arrive and not re-encoding them |
[16:49:00] | AlHaz: | it's the encoding processes that kill you in myth |
[16:50:00] | roam: | AlHaz: Copy that, but does the HW / Card do the demultiplexing? |
[16:51:00] | AlHaz: | roam: Well, like i said, my experience is mostly DVB-S. If your DVB-T card is analagous to a 'budget' card — technotrend or b2c2 stuff — it's going to leave that up to software, but it's no big deal |
[16:52:00] | AlHaz: | in dvb-S, cards like the Hauppaugge Nexus-S can demux and even decode in hardware, i dunno that the api uses it |
[16:52:00] | roam: | So the budget card is 'superiour' in this case. |
[16:52:00] | AlHaz: | yeah, the Nexus-S does screw with the stream a little |
[16:52:00] | roam: | AlHaz: I use a Nova-T |
[16:52:00] | Spida_ is now known as Spida | |
[16:52:00] | AlHaz: | but since nobody broadcasts DVB-T in north america, i've never even seen a DVB-T card |
[16:54:00] | AlHaz: | roam: so that's a budget design – it'll be fine, good even, you're doing all the decoding on other machines |
[16:54:00] | AlHaz: | Anyway, I need to go to work |
[16:54:00] | roam: | So I need around 8MBit of I/O (for one channel) and 16 MBit if I stream it live. |

[20:44:00] | Chutt: | and the tuners are different |
[20:45:00] | rw: | "The PVR-150 uses the same Conexant MPEG2 encoding chip we all know and love. The difference here is that they replaced two chips (one from Philips that was the video A/DC and one from Micronas that was audio A/DC) with one integrated audio and video A/D convertor chip from Conexant. So essentially the PVR-150 design is cheaper and easier to produce, as it only has two chips and both are from the same vendor. As an added b |
[20:45:00] | rw: | enefit the new CX chip has dual 10-bit analog to digital convertors, whereas the Philips chip had a single 9-bit A/DC, so things have the potential to actually be a little better looking." -> http://www.meedio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=132929 |

[20:52:00] | KarlosII: | http://www.hauppauge.com/Pages/compare_pvr.html |
[20:52:00] | Chutt: | it's crazy how the maker of the cards actually has information on the differences between them |

[20:53:00] | rw: | haha |
[20:54:00] | Beirdo: | hehe :) |
[20:54:00] | rw: | the diference from PVR150, PVR250 and PVR350 is that the first begins with 1, the middle one with 2 and the latest with 3! |

[23:10:00] | hadeees: | linuxvirgin, did you do any resaerch before buying that card? |
[23:12:00] | hadeees: | mchou, so since the content is protected with DTCP does that mean mythtv can't do anything with it even the hdtv stuff? |
[23:13:00] | linuxvirgin: | hardees- i saw where someone put in the mythtv hardware database that their experience was a "9" with this card, and also two of the reviews on newegg claimed they were using it in mythtv with no troubles |
[23:13:00] | linuxvirgin: | I'm finding otherwise now... seems these cards are rather infamous |
[23:13:00] | hadeees: | linuxvirgin, well its not that, just most people suggest using a hardware mpeg2 encoder |
[23:14:00] | hadeees: | not that you have too |
[23:14:00] | linuxvirgin: | yes, I did know that, but I just didn't have the money to drop on a hardware encoder card |
[23:14:00] | hadeees: | but there is more help available |
[23:14:00] | linuxvirgin: | figured that since I was only using one card, my Athlon 2100+ that's in the myth box would have an easy enough time keeping up |
[23:14:00] | Beirdo: | it should |
[23:15:00] | linuxvirgin: | now I just have to get it to where it has something to keep up _with_ |
[23:15:00] | hadeees: | linuxvirgin, yeah it should be fine, no clue what a good bttv is |
[23:15:00] | hadeees: | might want to search the mailing list |
[23:15:00] | linuxvirgin: | i was talking to someone on #knoppmyth |
[23:15:00] | hadeees: | linuxvirgin, http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/ |
[23:16:00] | linuxvirgin: | he/she/it helped me out a lot trying to chase this down, but we didn't get it fixed |
[23:16:00] | mchou: | linuxvirgin: you have a digital camera? |
[23:16:00] | linuxvirgin: | so I'm going to check in there later when there's more people around |
[23:16:00] | linuxvirgin: | mchou- yes, I do |
[23:16:00] | mchou: | linuxvirgin: take a close-up shot of the card. |
[23:16:00] | mchou: | see which chip it really has.... |
[23:16:00] | mchou: | or do a lspci :) |
[23:17:00] | mchou: | try lspci first..... |

[23:18:00] | linuxvirgin: | here's a link to the card on newegg.... http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16815100103 |
[23:18:00] | linuxvirgin: | if that helps at all |
[23:19:00] | mchou: | but is that exactly the same as your card that you got :) |

[23:20:00] | linuxvirgin: | thanks, mchou |
[23:20:00] | linuxvirgin: | i bought what I could afford |
[23:20:00] | mchou: | well, then it should work. you need to mess with tuner type is all. |
[23:21:00] | mchou: | $37 is a rip for that card. |
[23:22:00] | linuxvirgin: | interestingly, the pic on newegg shows the tuner being covered by a sticker with "KWORLD" all over it, but the card I got has a "V-Stream" sticker on it. Prolly another case of some asian company having 15 different names... |
[23:22:00] | mchou: | most I'd pay for that card is $20. |
[23:22:00] | mchou: | they are the same company. |
[23:22:00] | linuxvirgin: | all I care about is can I get it to work? not how much I got ripped off in the process |

[23:24:00] | linuxvirgin: | or will I be using something more generic |
[23:24:00] | linuxvirgin: | because as it is, it doesn't show up specifically |
[23:24:00] | mchou: | you are nowhere close to using mythtv yet. You should verify with xawtv. |

[23:39:00] | ** gr8nash wonders how safe a "safe" is that is made to drill through? ** | |
[23:39:00] | rjune: | backups then eh? |
[23:39:00] | gr8nash: | yep |
[23:39:00] | rjune: | gr8nash: I always like a 3ware raid card with multiple drives for that |
[23:40:00] | gr8nash: | what do you mena? |

[23:40:00] | rjune: | yueah |
[23:41:00] | rjune: | I run raid 1, then hotswap the drives |
[23:41:00] | quink: | is mythstreamtv still under active development? |
[23:42:00] | gr8nash: | what type of drives can you hotswap? |
[23:42:00] | rjune: | gr8nash: any |
[23:42:00] | gr8nash: | SATA is the only ones i know of |
[23:42:00] | gr8nash: | really? |
[23:42:00] | rjune: | get a hotswap bay and a 3ware card |
[23:42:00] | rjune: | yup really |
[23:42:00] | Beirdo: | SCA |
[23:42:00] | rjune: | most raid cards can hotswap |
[23:42:00] | Beirdo: | :) |
[23:42:00] | gr8nash: | is 3ware IDE raid? |
[23:42:00] | rjune: | 3ware makes ide and sata raid |
[23:43:00] | gr8nash: | i will check them out.. |
[23:43:00] | gr8nash: | got a bay you can recomend? |
[23:43:00] | Beirdo: | not as good a large-scale operation as tapes |
[23:43:00] | rjune: | not really |
[23:43:00] | rjune: | Beirdo: depends on what you want |
[23:43:00] | Beirdo: | not really |
[23:43:00] | rjune: | for disaster recovery it works great |
[23:44:00] | rjune: | for individual file recovery it sucks |
[23:44:00] | gr8nash: | Beirdo, would you like to know how your wrong? |
[23:44:00] | gr8nash: | why tapes suck SOOOO badly |
[23:44:00] | pookSter (retSkoop@d57-182-197.home.cgocable.net) has joined #mythtv-users | |
[23:44:00] | Beirdo: | because of pebcak? |
[23:44:00] | gr8nash: | because good tape drives start ~3000 ++++ to expensive to keep spares laying around.. |
[23:44:00] | gr8nash: | and if you tapedrive dies when you need it |
[23:44:00] | Beirdo: | bitch bitch bitch |
[23:45:00] | gr8nash: | what can you do with the tapes? |
[23:45:00] | Beirdo: | :) |
[23:45:00] | gr8nash: | that was me experience.. (nightmare) |
[23:45:00] | gr8nash: | s/me/my |
[23:45:00] | quink: | i do something sorta like raid 1 |
[23:45:00] | quink: | 2 matched hdds. same paritions and boot loaders |
[23:45:00] | gr8nash: | hard drives you can alway just pop in a computer and get it up quick |
[23:45:00] | Beirdo: | you can tell the boss to stop cheaping out and buy another tape drive |
[23:45:00] | Beirdo: | hehe |
[23:45:00] | gr8nash: | heh.. |
[23:45:00] | quink: | i just rsync drive A to drive B nightly so its disaster recovery and a 24hrs backup |
[23:45:00] | quink: | incase you delete a file or something |
[23:46:00] | rjune: | quink: I do that too |
[23:46:00] | quink: | works great as long as you remember not to overwrite your fstab |
[23:46:00] | rjune: | hehe |
[23:47:00] | quink: | its saved my ass before. ops damn rm -f. oh right i have a backup |
[23:47:00] | gr8nash: | rjune, do you get a _freakin_ long IDE cable to get from the 3ware to the bay? |

[23:52:00] | quink: | i want to have a live backup so if a drive fails or a major disater, i can boot up off hte second drive |
[23:53:00] | xris: | quink: no.. but it's better than your current rsync solution. |
[23:54:00] | xris: | live backup would be "raid0" |
[23:54:00] | xris: | sorry, "raid1" |
[23:54:00] | beavis (~beavis@p54A7A2F6.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) Quit ("Verlassend") | |
[23:55:00] | quink: | yeah but this is a live, 24hr delayed, backup |
[23:55:00] | Beirdo: | if it's delayed it's not live |
[23:55:00] | quink: | well its pseudo raid 1 |
[23:55:00] | Beirdo: | you must work for a TV network |
[23:55:00] | quink: | heh |
[23:55:00] | rjune: | pseudo raid 1? how does that work? |
[23:55:00] | xris: | quink: except you're probably not copying boot sector stuff with rsync. |
[23:56:00] | quink: | i can boot off it and have af ully working system, and i can restore files that have been deleted in the last 24hrs |
[23:56:00] | quink: | xris: i installed grub in it |
[23:56:00] | quink: | its been tested :P |
[23:56:00] | xris: | quink: I guess grub is smart enoug to get around that, then... not like lilo that needs settings stored in there. |
[23:56:00] | xris: | quink: but like Beirdo said, that's not a live backup. |
[23:57:00] | ** xris goes off to click some beirdo ads. ** | |
[23:57:00] | quink: | yeah its sorta live |
[23:57:00] | gr8nash: | xris, lol |
[23:57:00] | Beirdo: | no it isn't |
[23:57:00] | Beirdo: | it's a daily snapshot |
[23:57:00] | Beirdo: | that's not "sorta live" |
[23:57:00] | rjune: | Beirdo: it's sorta raid 1 too |
[23:57:00] | xris: | quink: no, it's delayed. live is, well, live. |
[23:57:00] | quink: | ok wahtever |
[23:57:00] | quink: | you know what i mean |
[23:58:00] | xris: | gr8nash: well, I'm not going to plug my OWN ads... but I can plug Beirdo's and hope that people will then go click mine.. :) |
[23:58:00] | Beirdo: | yeah, click xris' ads :) |
[23:59:00] | Stereo: | hi folks. I have a relatively obscrure aopen 'personal cinema' graphics card that is also a tv tuner. It has a nvidia fx 5200 on it, and its model is fx5200p-vc128. Is there any way I can find out what sort of tv tuner it has? I tried reading the irc faq and mythtv wiki but couldn't find anything about tuners. |
[23:59:00] | ** xris suggests that there are actually some cool ones at meadbrewer.com, but they're small businesses and should only be clicked if you mean it. ** | |
[23:59:00] | quink: | ads? |
