[00:48:00] smartel: Hello all. I am a new user of MythTv, so the answer to my question will probably be obvious for must of you, but how can I automatically transcode my recorded shows to Mpeg4 after they are recorded and comercials flaged? When I configure a recording, I can chose a profile, but only my cards profiles are listed; the transcoding ones aren't. I guess I am at the wrong place...

[00:54:00] SlicerDicer-: smartel, I would not trust the automatic flagging and transcoding
[00:54:00] SlicerDicer-: I would do it by hand
[00:54:00] SlicerDicer-: from what I have seen of commerical flagging is it is half ass at best. I am by no means saying its bad I just would not trust it as 100% auto its nice to skip the commericals I would just not trust it on full autopilot as you could have something go really wrong :) then you will be mad and bitching
[00:55:00] SlicerDicer-: actually I just learnt how to do it by hand today hehe
[00:55:00] SlicerDicer-: I figured out I had it set wrong hehe
[00:58:00] SlicerDicer-: but then again I am a gentoo user so I like to do things the hard way har har :P
[00:59:00] smartel: Ok, but I still want to automatically encode to mpeg4
[00:59:00] smartel: I guess I'll flag comercials afterward
[01:01:00] PatrickDK: did you try changing your commercial detection method?

[01:04:00] SlicerDicer-: heh well that did not work for mine
[01:04:00] smartel: Or is there a way to see from the fronthend what recording is in what format? (Mpeg2, Mpeg4...) That would make the manual technique more usable.
[01:04:00] SlicerDicer-: smartel, I am talking manual by after the movie is done recording go in and transcode it and yank out the commericals
[01:04:00] SlicerDicer-: in mythfrontend itself
[01:05:00] SlicerDicer-: smartel, what card do you have?
[01:06:00] smartel: Forget the comercial thing for a second. I record in Mpeg2 with my Hauppauge PVR-150, and want to automaticaly transcode to another format to save hd space.
[01:06:00] SlicerDicer-: ohh well then thats fine
[01:06:00] SlicerDicer-: but I still have no idea how to do it as I said I just learned how to transcode today hehe
[01:06:00] SlicerDicer-: I have been running myth for nearly 5 months now
[01:07:00] SlicerDicer-: harddrive space was not a issue really for me :P I just add harddrives as I need them "costco has hell of good deals on 300+gb drives" :)
[01:12:00] smartel: If you use Myth since 5 months, maybe you'll be able to answer my next question: How can I organise my recorded shows? I want to put evrything I didn't watched yet in one place, and categorized them manually after I watched them. Is it possible ?

[01:31:00] travolta: no

[01:41:00] Jazbo: Aha. I noticed that there doesn't seem to be a man page for mythfrontend. I've found some discusion on the developer forums about command line options for mythfrontend but does anyone know a good place to find this info?

[02:38:00] Ryushin: Hello all.
[02:40:00] Ryushin: I have a few questions regarding the design of my first myth box. I'm still aquireing hardware. I got a nice Silverstone case, a PVR-350, pcHDTV, Sempron 2600+, 512MB RAM, etc.
[02:41:00] Ryushin: Will I be able to record HD with that config? Also, I've just found out that there are DVB cards. It seems that this is just for Europe. Are there any DVB cards that work in the US?
[02:42:00] SqWaw` (n=Garfster@ool-457a6573.dyn.optonline.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[02:46:00] KaiForce: Ryushin I don't know about the Sempron but I believe that should be fine for HD
[02:46:00] Ryushin: The sempron was just a stop gap until the dual core amd's came down in price a bit.
[02:48:00] Ryushin: I should get the sempron and motherboard end of this week. I really don't like over clocking anything, but I guess this chip is very, very easy to overclock safely to 2 ghz (some people have gotten 2.6 out of it) from it's 1.6 ghz. So, I'm probably going to do that.

[02:49:00] Ryushin: I've googled some more, and I answered my own question regarding DVB. It seems it's used outside of north america. Is there a DVB card for satellite that Myth can run?
[02:51:00] KaiForce: not sure, someone on here should be able to answer that
[02:52:00] KaiForce: what kind of disk storage are you getting?
[02:52:00] knewt (n=jmb@home.pimb.org) has joined #mythtv-users
[02:52:00] Ryushin: Write now it's just going to be a single 7200 rpm 120 GB drive. But early next year, I'll drop 6 300 GB 7200 rpm drives RAID 5.
[02:53:00] KaiForce: with HD you'll fill that in a hurry :)
[02:53:00] djperegrine: how much money is a 120 gig drive now a days?
[02:53:00] Ryushin: Yea, I sure will. Will I be able to transcode it into MPEG 4 after the fact.
[02:54:00] KaiForce: 120s, do they still sell those ?

[02:54:00] KaiForce: my original myth install was 20gb
[02:54:00] djperegrine: cool
[02:54:00] djperegrine: mine is 30
[02:54:00] djperegrine: its plenty
[02:54:00] djperegrine: 30 , 30 minutes shows is fine
[02:54:00] KaiForce: i didn't understand what myth did, the day after i fired it up i ordered a replacement
[02:54:00] Ryushin: So 1.5 TB is overkill?

[02:55:00] djperegrine: for me its like a gig for 30 minutes
[02:55:00] djperegrine: but you could transcode and make it really small
[02:55:00] KaiForce: i record at a higher bitrate, i get about 3gb/half hour
[02:55:00] djperegrine: well you don't need to
[02:55:00] w1ldman: I dont have /dev/lirc or /dev/lirc0 can somebody tell me how to creat those

[02:55:00] djperegrine: my cable is pretty crappy now anyway
[02:56:00] djperegrine: w1ldman, load the driver?
[02:56:00] KaiForce: i have two directv receivers
[02:56:00] w1ldman: modprobe? yea i did that
[02:56:00] djperegrine: well?
[02:56:00] djperegrine: did it fail?
[02:56:00] Ryushin: I figure HD is going to consume about 15 GB an hour. I'm hoping transcoding will drop it down to 3–5 GB or so.
[02:56:00] w1ldman: let me do it again
[02:56:00] djperegrine: check dmesg afterwards
[02:58:00] w1ldman: could not open /dev/lirc0

[02:59:00] Ryushin: How does Myth handle a show that was just recorded. I think there is a setting to transcode it. Can you whatch a show while it's being transcoded, or do you have to wait until its done?
[02:59:00] w1ldman: ok so in my lsmod i do see it
[02:59:00] djperegrine: I think thats the problem
[03:00:00] djperegrine: Ryushin , I dunno I want to know the same
[03:00:00] KaiForce: Ryushin: you can watch while transcode is in progress
[03:00:00] Ryushin: Myth is so cool!
[03:00:00] djperegrine: yea
[03:01:00] KaiForce: it changes the way you watch TV for sure. I took my wife to see "Wedding Crashers" and she had never even heard of the movie, thanks? to myth
[03:01:00] Ryushin: I can't wait to get my box built, and get debian and myth running. I have enough hardware it should take me a couple of weeks to get everything working.
[03:02:00] djperegrine: knoppmyth is dope it made my life alot easier
[03:02:00] Ryushin: Is there any advantage in going with 64 bit over 32 bit?
[03:02:00] djperegrine: um if you have a 64bit CPU you really should
[03:03:00] djperegrine: but if you are buying a CPU, I would go with 32bit its cheaper :P
[03:03:00] Ryushin: It's a 64 bit sempron.
[03:03:00] djperegrine: yea do it fo shure
[03:03:00] djperegrine: it would be a waste if you didn't
[03:03:00] KaiForce: is it tougher to get installed on 64
[03:03:00] djperegrine: yea
[03:04:00] djperegrine: you'll run into alot more problems
[03:04:00] KaiForce: i'd probably go that way too, even if it had a higher upfront pain
[03:04:00] djperegrine: yea
[03:04:00] djperegrine: you have to configure shit anyway
[03:04:00] KaiForce: but i'm on a tbird 1.2 so i'm not even considering it :)

[04:25:00] smartel: SlicerDicer: HOw do you transcode from Mpeg2 to Mpeg4 ? I know I save a lot of space when I do a manual Transcode on a recorded show, but I see no way to see exactly what is happening; is it converted to mpeg4 or somethig else or ...
[04:25:00] PatrickDK: I am thinking about installing like 4 18g 15k scsi drives in raid10 for the live buffers
[04:25:00] SlicerDicer-: smartel, you can setup the options in mythtv
[04:26:00] boywonder: what tuners are you using?
[04:26:00] SlicerDicer-: pvr-350
[04:26:00] PatrickDK: anyone been playing with the ivtv 0.3.7 drivers? and a pvr350?
[04:27:00] PatrickDK: it seems the decoder is not working, atleast I can't get it to work
[04:27:00] PatrickDK: works ok in the ivtv 0.3.3 versions for me
[04:27:00] boywonder: I got a couple pvr150s, so Im not sure
[04:27:00] smartel: SlicerDicer are you talking about the options in "Recording profiles -> Transcoders"

[04:28:00] SlicerDicer-: PatrickDK, i use 0.2.0
[04:28:00] SlicerDicer-: smartel, I think it will work out nicely
[04:28:00] PatrickDK: ya, I don't like the 0.2 much myself
[04:28:00] GreyFoxx: PatrickDK: I set one up the other night, using both 0.2.0 and 0.3.7. Both seemed to work fine
[04:28:00] PatrickDK: GreyFoxx, what kernel you using?
[04:29:00] SlicerDicer-: smartel, once I get it figured out for optimal settings I will post information in the gentoo mythtv wiki if you want to take a look in a few days it should be up
[04:29:00] GreyFoxx: used it for an hour and decided it wasn't really much better than the output of my video cad
[04:29:00] SlicerDicer-: GreyFoxx, I never have had a issue with the 0.2.0
[04:29:00] PatrickDK: oh heh, video card is better output

[04:31:00] PatrickDK: unless someone knows one that does better

[04:32:00] SlicerDicer: ok see the from RTjpeg/MPEG4 option in there?
[04:32:00] SlicerDicer: select that and hit next
[04:32:00] The_Ball: is the only way to finetune channels to enter the finetune value directly in the database?
[04:32:00] smartel: ok
[04:33:00] xris: The_Ball: can edit from mythtv-setup or mythweb
[04:33:00] SlicerDicer: till you see codec and change the codec to MPEG-4 and then adjust the bitrate as you desire I am messing with settings to see what the best bitrate/quality is with setting
[04:33:00] SlicerDicer: thats why its experimental
[04:33:00] PatrickDK: hmm, I still wish I could compile mythtv with directfb
[04:33:00] The_Ball: xris, ah yes, would the values be the same as tvtime uses?
[04:33:00] smartel: How do you know that RTjpeg is the one that will be use ?
[04:33:00] SlicerDicer: just do it with a movie you dont care about for testing or record some garbage like umm... discovery channel crap to test with hehe
[04:33:00] PatrickDK: wanted to try that out on the pvr350

[04:33:00] SlicerDicer: smartel: cause I searched for hours and this is what I have come to the conclusion that you have to do
[04:33:00] xris: The_Ball: not a clue. not needed for me.
[04:34:00] The_Ball: thanks :)
[04:34:00] xris: smartel: why would you want to use rtjpeg?
[04:34:00] smartel: xris: I dont
[04:34:00] SlicerDicer: smartel: but selecing mpeg4 codec should make it compress to mpeg4
[04:34:00] smartel: xris: I want to transcode from Mpeg2 to Mpeg4
[04:34:00] SlicerDicer: xris: can verify that I am sure but I cant
[04:35:00] xris: smartel: then you go into the "transcode" profile group
[04:35:00] xris: and set up whatever you want
[04:35:00] GreyFoxx: PatrickDK: I can't imagine that performing very well
[04:35:00] xris: I still think that the mpeg2 from the x50 cards is better than the mpeg4 via software
[04:36:00] SlicerDicer: smartel: I have it set to MPEG-4. bitrate 1500, enable highquality, enable 4mv, enable interlaced DCT and enable interlaced motion estimation thats what my next test will be :)
[04:36:00] GreyFoxx: the pvr350 is not a video card, there are no hardware accelerations (beyond mpeg decoding) to be used, so it would all be in software anyway
[04:36:00] GreyFoxx: I don't see what you would gain even if you got it to work
[04:36:00] xris: SlicerDicer-: I used to use that setting (at about 3x higher bitrate) for encoding.
[04:36:00] smartel: :xris: How do I know the Transcoder to configure ? There is: From RTjepg/MPEG4, From MPEG2, From High Quality, From Medium Quality, From Low quality)
[04:36:00] SlicerDicer: xris: is 1500 too low?
[04:36:00] PatrickDK: GreyFoxx, bypassing all of X11
[04:36:00] PatrickDK: and it's damned config issues
[04:37:00] PatrickDK: I want to run X11 on my video card, to support some java apps I have to use on it
[04:37:00] xris: smartel: well, you have a hauppauge card, so "from mpeg2"
[04:37:00] GreyFoxx: PatrickDK: X is not the huge burden/beast people like to make it out to be
[04:37:00] PatrickDK: and well, x won't let me use the video card and the pvr350 at the same time
[04:37:00] xris: SlicerDicer-: what are you trying to do?
[04:37:00] PatrickDK: as least in all my attempts
[04:37:00] GreyFoxx: PatrickDK: Yeah ti would, easily
[04:37:00] SlicerDicer: xris: dunno I am just playing around :P
[04:37:00] GreyFoxx: You just gotta know how :)
[04:37:00] xris: 1500 is fine if you want smaller files.
[04:37:00] SlicerDicer: xris: will the video quality be good?
[04:37:00] xris: personally, I'd use nuvexport (which is why I wrote it)

[04:38:00] GreyFoxx: You could make 2 seperate X config files, 1 for the 350, 1 for the video card. Launch a seperate X session for each and point them to their proper X config. They would be COMPLETELY independant of each other
[04:38:00] smartel: xris: That's what I guessed, but i'd like to know what From Low Quality mean...
[04:38:00] PatrickDK: greyfoxx, I tried that
[04:38:00] xris: I don't have a very high opinion of the video encoding quality of myth's software encoders... but that very well could be entirely related to my old software-based tuner card not being as nice as my pvr-150.
[04:38:00] PatrickDK: the video goes wacky on the video card, if I load the pvr350 second
[04:38:00] PatrickDK: and the other way around, if I load pvr350 first
[04:38:00] SlicerDicer: xris: I will let you know the results of my testing :)
[04:38:00] xris: smartel: probably related to the recording profile... high/low/default/livetv

[04:39:00] PatrickDK: well, used the same config file
[04:39:00] xris: smartel: I don't use them. I record at a high bitrate mpeg2, and then immediately transcode via nuvexport, once i edit out the commercials.
[04:39:00] PatrickDK: used -layout to load a seperate setup though
[04:39:00] GreyFoxx: PatrickDK: That should work yeah
[04:40:00] PatrickDK: hmm, I still have no output with the ivtv 0.3.7k drivers
[04:41:00] smartel: If I transcode manually in Myth, how can I know from mythfrontend witch show I already transcoded and witch I didn't ?
[04:41:00] PatrickDK: when drivers load, the screen goes green, then blank, and that is it
[04:41:00] GreyFoxx: Can you dump an mpeg directly to the decoder with/without X running ?
[04:41:00] PatrickDK: before, no, will try now
[04:42:00] PatrickDK: just sound, no video
[04:42:00] PatrickDK: I tried adjusting the alpha and stuff too
[04:42:00] splat1 is now known as splAt1
[04:42:00] GreyFoxx: Sure the video cable is connected and has no broken pins ?:)
[04:43:00] PatrickDK: well, it works with 0.2 and 0.3.3
[04:43:00] GreyFoxx: ahhh
[04:43:00] SlicerDicer-: yeah "America's Ugliest Living Room" good garbage program to record to test the encoding ROFL!!!
[04:43:00] GreyFoxx: ok
[04:43:00] SlicerDicer-: sorry
[04:44:00] SlicerDicer-: xris, how high is your bitrate on mpeg2?
[04:44:00] SlicerDicer-: for a 2 hour movie how big would it be?
[04:44:00] ** GreyFoxx prepares to decomission this desktop and move it to site on a shelf in the basement until I have a use for it **
[04:46:00] xris: SlicerDicer-: 4000–9000, I think... maybe not quite that high. ends up about 2.4G/hour
[04:47:00] SlicerDicer-: ahh yeah thats about what I run
[04:47:00] SlicerDicer-: the video quality just rocks
[04:47:00] xris: yeah
[04:47:00] SlicerDicer-: I dont like low quality
[04:52:00] xris: agreed
[04:52:00] xris: that's why I archive with nuvexport instead of the built-in stuff.
[04:52:00] xris: can get a really nice export that's about 350M/hour (minus commercials)
[04:52:00] SlicerDicer: wow
[04:53:00] xris: *and* it'll play on other machines, since it's avi, not nuv

[04:54:00] xris: not well, anyway.
[04:54:00] xris: but if your sources are mpeg2, then sure.

[04:55:00] PatrickDK: awb, me anything < 0.3.4
[04:55:00] SlicerDicer: but I prefer nvidia svideo out cause of the simplicity
[04:55:00] GreyFoxx: or did you mean ivtv version ?
[04:55:00] PatrickDK: I should test 0.3.4 though
[04:56:00] SlicerDicer: xris: just tested it for some reason my mplayer can fastforward nuv
[04:56:00] PatrickDK: any distro at all should be fine
[04:57:00] awb4422: ok – i was trying ubuntu, but never could get it, i was running the 0.2.x series tho, does that matter?
[04:57:00] xris: SlicerDicer: nupplevideo or mpeg2 named .nuv?
[04:57:00] PatrickDK: awb, tvout or in not working?
[04:57:00] SlicerDicer: direct from mythtv
[04:57:00] SlicerDicer: maybe its a mpeg2 named .nuv hell I dont know
[04:57:00] awb4422: tvout
[04:57:00] SlicerDicer: how do I know?
[04:57:00] xris: SlicerDicer: you have an mpeg card, no? pvr-x50?
[04:57:00] SlicerDicer: pvr350
[04:57:00] PatrickDK: awb, hmm, tvout was easy for me to get working
[04:57:00] xris: that's mpeg, with .nuv name
[04:57:00] xris: not nupplevideo
[04:57:00] SlicerDicer: ahh

[07:49:00] Mrgoose: do you have the serial port set in the kernel?
[07:49:00] Mrgoose: try this
[07:49:00] lotia: yup. but i'm using the irman driver so, the lirc serial module is not required.
[07:50:00] Mrgoose: oh
[07:50:00] lotia: actually it won't work if i inset the module.
[07:50:00] Mrgoose: sorry i use lirc serial module
[07:50:00] lotia: i can cat the serial port and the receiver light comes on and it spits out data.
[07:50:00] lotia: nope, use the irman lirc driver.
[07:52:00] lotia: Mrgoose, have you looked at vlc instead? in many cases vlc output looks better than xine.

[21:09:00] lane: Hi all. I just re-did my Myth box with FC4, and I've hit a snag with nuvexport. I recorded a couple shows with my PVR 250, and tried to do a DVD export using nuvexport. As I was answering the normal series of questions that nuvexport asks, it mentioned that my version of yuvdenoise was broken. It let me do the export, but the resulting mpg file had a bit of av sync issues. I was wondering if this is a known issue, or if xris or anyon
[21:10:00] JoeG: anybody care to give me a hand?
[21:10:00] Mrgoose: i dont think either of them are around
[21:11:00] xris: lane: yuvdenoise issue won't have anything to do with the out of sync.
[21:11:00] xris: and sync problems are a known issue in general. no idea how to work around them — usually it means something's not quite right with the source file.
[21:11:00] xris: you might try --transcode to see if that works any better.
[21:11:00] JoeG: mplayer /dev/viedo0 works great... but mythtv just gives me a black screen
[21:11:00] lane: xris: ok, thanks. It's strange, since I didn't have any such issues before I redid my box, when I was using fc2
[21:12:00] xris: lane: yup
[21:12:00] mirak_ (n=mirak@AAubervilliers-152-1-21-213.w83-114.abo.wanadoo.fr) has joined #mythtv-users
[21:12:00] lane: I mainly redid the box to be able to use my air2pc card
[21:12:00] xris: could be the individual recording, too.
[21:12:00] PatrickDK: lane, have you tried using a difference multiplexing program?
[21:12:00] JoeG: so nobody wants to help me
[21:12:00] xris: good luck getting nuvexport working with the air2pc recordings, too.. I've had no luck so far.
[21:12:00] lane: hmmm
[21:12:00] xris: PatrickDK: hence my asking him to try --transcode
[21:12:00] PatrickDK: I found my sync problems was just the program that joined the streams
[21:13:00] xris: but yeah, you could try tcdemux and tcremux, or mpgtx or any of the other ones.
[21:13:00] PatrickDK: hmm, dunno I don't transcode my video :(
[21:13:00] JoeG: wow cool it's like i am a chost or something....
[21:13:00] lane: I'll give that a try. Although I'm embarrased to say that my box is down right now. I pulled a major dummy award on Friday.
[21:13:00] JoeG: err ghost
[21:14:00] xris: JoeG: or no one knows the answer to your question
[21:14:00] lane: JoeG: Can you do a recording successfully?
[21:14:00] JoeG: ahh
[21:14:00] JoeG: well mplayer /dev/video0 works great
[21:15:00] JoeG: and i can cat that into a file and it works
[21:15:00] JoeG: but not in mythtv
[21:15:00] lane: I thought I was deleting /etc/X11 on my Mac OS X laptop (I wanted to redo my X setup) but sadly, I was logged in to my myth box
[21:15:00] lane: soooo, no more X on the Myth box
[21:16:00] PatrickDK: I found rm -rf /etc to be more fun
[21:16:00] JoeG: and i already read about setting up the card to use mpeg2
[21:16:00] PatrickDK: I do nihtly backups of /etc on all my servers
[21:16:00] JoeG: but i still get a black screen when i select watch live tv inside mythtv
[21:17:00] JoeG: i am about to just give up and go out and get a tivo
[21:17:00] lane: Well, sudo rm -rf /usr/X11R6 /etc/X11 works pretty well too
[21:17:00] PatrickDK: ya, but atleast you can still login to the system :)
[21:17:00] lane: yeah, I've done that and gotten off the relevant files I needed to back up
[21:18:00] lane: now I'm just debating whether to continue with FC4 or to revert back to FC2 and abandon hope of getting my air2pc card working
[21:18:00] JoeG: so if you guys don't know how answer this... where do i go from here?? can't get any answers from the mailing list either
[21:18:00] lane: JoeG: try doing a short manual recording
[21:19:00] lane: using myth
[21:19:00] JoeG: k
[21:19:00] lane: sometimes you'll get it to work when livetv fails
[21:19:00] lane: the other thing to do would be to redo your mythtvsetup
[21:19:00] JoeG: lane redid the setup a bunch of times from scratch
[21:20:00] JoeG: brb
[21:20:00] lane: making sure to say Yes when it asks you to redo your card setup
[21:20:00] JoeG: giving the record tc a try ,ight lock up my box
[21:20:00] JoeG: lane yeap did that
[21:20:00] lane: xris: what distro are you using for your air2pc card

[21:52:00] lane: xris: thanks. Don't suppose you also have a PVR 250 in the same box
[21:53:00] xris: 150
[21:53:00] lane: and they play nice together?
[21:54:00] xris: yeah
[21:54:00] Sneaker__: I've got a problem: When I try to watch live tv I'll get just a blank screen. Backend is sayin something like: "Error – No PIDS set, please correct your channel setup" and "Warning – No data from card in 1 second." Any clues?
[21:54:00] xris: Sneaker__: rerun mythtv-setup, like the error suggests
[21:54:00] Sneaker__: no help
[21:55:00] xris: oh?
[21:55:00] Sneaker__: hmm, maybe there is somekind of a problem with the database...
[21:55:00] xris: Sneaker__: thus, rerun mythtv-setup, and clear all channel/card settings.
[21:55:00] Sneaker__: I have done that ~6 times
[21:56:00] Sneaker__: But will do it for the 7th time
[21:56:00] xris: Sneaker__: what kind of card? and you've attached the channel stuff to the card?
[21:56:00] lane: xris: ok. good to know. my dilemma is that fc2 works great for recording and exporting (with no sync issues), but I can't get the air2pc working, while fc4 recognizes the air2pc just fine, but I get sync issues when exporting from the 250 to DVD with nuvexport.
[21:56:00] Sneaker__: Pci Nebula (mt352 frontend)
[21:56:00] xris: lane: ALL recordings? or just 1 or 2?
[21:56:00] xris: again, did you try --transcode?
[21:57:00] xris: Sneaker__: so, dvb...?
[21:57:00] Sneaker__: dvb-t
[21:57:00] xris: maybe you need to adjust the frequency tables manually?

[21:57:00] xris: no clue. no dvb in the US to learn on
[21:58:00] Sneaker__: Hmm
[22:00:00] Sneaker__: Well I scanned the channels with mythtvsetup by giving frequency for the first channelpacket
[22:00:00] xris: makes sense.
[22:00:00] xris: then you need to attach them to the xmltvid for each channel you get from xmltv
[22:00:00] Sneaker__: It should be enough to get all the necessary PIDs to the database, right?
[22:00:00] Sneaker__: hmm
[22:00:00] Sneaker__: I thought that was just for the EPG
[22:01:00] xris: should work without doing that, though.
[22:01:00] Sneaker__: yep
[22:01:00] xris: except that the EPG is what myth uses to tune channels
[22:01:00] Sneaker__: okay, maybe that is the problem
[22:01:00] xris: you still need to attach the card to an epg.
[22:01:00] Sneaker__: true
[22:01:00] Sneaker__: Okay, I will try again.
[22:01:00] Sneaker__: Thanks for the advice
[22:02:00] xris: this is designed for atsc, but it might work (maybe with tweaking) for dvb: http://forevermore.net/files/mythtv_misc/hdtvscan2dd.pl.txt
