[00:00:00] | Bio: | I want it to go to PLUGIN mythvideo and then automatically select LISTING from there. |
[00:01:00] | Bio: | can actions be queued? |
[00:01:00] | Bio: | like <action>PLUGIN mythvideo;LISTING</action> |
[00:02:00] | juski: | Bio: on my main menu it's called 'media library' – and that's where mythvideo & mythmusic live |

[00:03:00] | Majn00n: | question: if you have like comcast cable and buy a PVR card do u still need the comcast cable box or will the card do the job as well? |
[00:04:00] | Bio: | You might need an IRBlaster |
[00:04:00] | juski: | depends on the box, Majn00n |
[00:04:00] | juski: | i.e. whether or not it does any decryption etc |
[00:05:00] | MrSpiffy: | juski, gues what – it's the TV |
[00:05:00] | juski: | its the TV?! |
[00:05:00] | juski: | heheh |
[00:05:00] | MrSpiffy: | yep |
[00:05:00] | Majn00n: | well I have directv so I need the receiver anyway but I was just curious if anyone who is using comast can do without the comcast box |
[00:05:00] | juski: | of all the things... |
[00:05:00] | MrSpiffy: | I tried it upstairs and it works just like yours |
[00:05:00] | MrSpiffy: | so I tried the cable from uptstairs down here – same reult |
[00:05:00] | MrSpiffy: | its the TV |
[00:06:00] | MrSpiffy: | the guy at via said to try running the bios at 640x480 |
[00:06:00] | MrSpiffy: | kind of a last ditch guess |
[00:06:00] | juski: | I had the EPIA board in work a while ago (showing off)... and the monitors there autoselect... they took a while to lock on the video standard |
[00:06:00] | MrSpiffy: | hmm |
[00:06:00] | MrSpiffy: | veddy interesting |
[00:06:00] | MrSpiffy: | bus schtupid |
[00:07:00] | MrSpiffy: | it's an old jvc tv |
[00:07:00] | MrSpiffy: | late 80s I think |
[00:07:00] | MrSpiffy: | it flashes twice then nada til the driver load |
[00:07:00] | MrSpiffy: | very odd |
[00:07:00] | juski: | must be some odd timing issue with the vid. signal then |
[00:07:00] | juski: | maybe it's not 'by the book' NTSC |
[00:08:00] | splat1 is now known as splAt1 | |
[00:08:00] | MrSpiffy: | hmmmm |
[00:08:00] | MrSpiffy: | veddy interesting |
[00:10:00] | MrSpiffy: | but schtupid |
[00:10:00] | juski: | so, Majn00n – depends what method the cableco are using to send the TV down the cable |
[00:11:00] | ** MrSpiffy dislikes cable boxes ** | |

[00:11:00] | juski: | if it's just plain ole analogue, chances are you can bypass the tuner box |
[00:11:00] | MrSpiffy: | which is why I still have dumb basic analog cable |
[00:11:00] | h3x: | does the hauppauge wintv go-plus work with mythtv? |
[00:11:00] | h3x: | its model 1033 (if that makes any difference) |
[00:11:00] | MrSpiffy: | supplemented with a netflix account |
[00:12:00] | h3x: | hey... analog cable rules. |
[00:12:00] | h3x: | :p |
[00:12:00] | Majn00n: | ahh so like digital cable wont work I see or HDTV |
[00:12:00] | juski: | if it wasn't for digital cable I wouldn't have broadband |
[00:12:00] | juski: | Majn00n – you need a box for digital and HDTV |
[00:12:00] | MrSpiffy: | digital cable here has a lot to be desired |
[00:12:00] | MrSpiffy: | I've seen it |
[00:12:00] | MrSpiffy: | blech |
[00:12:00] | juski: | it has here too.. 350+ channels and nothing on |
[00:13:00] | MrSpiffy: | quality is poo-poo here |
[00:13:00] | h3x: | does the hauppauge wintv go-plus work with mythtv? |
[00:13:00] | MrSpiffy: | at least a tmy parents house |
[00:13:00] | MrSpiffy: | h3x I am not sure |
[00:13:00] | Majn00n: | yeah like the pink floyd song "100 channels and nothing but shit on tv" |
[00:13:00] | h3x: | :( |
[00:13:00] | juski: | we've got 1.8mbits on all channels – it's very good when the channel has been optimized properly before tx |
[00:13:00] | MrSpiffy: | h3x, I suspect it is a brooktree device (guess) |
[00:13:00] | h3x: | whats a brooktree device? |
[00:13:00] | MrSpiffy: | h3x, google on bttv wintv-go |
[00:13:00] | juski: | h3x – sounds like a standard v4l capture device... software encoding |
[00:14:00] | MrSpiffy: | probably |
[00:14:00] | h3x: | so it should work? |
[00:14:00] | MrSpiffy: | google it man – if the linux bttv (brooktree) module drives it, then it should work |
[00:14:00] | MrSpiffy: | I use an old wintv 401 card – bttv, v4l software capture |

[00:18:00] | MrSpiffy: | eeeeewwwww |
[00:18:00] | juski: | you haven't bought it already have you, h3x? |
[00:19:00] | MrSpiffy: | but it is a bttv card so it should "work" |
[00:19:00] | MrSpiffy: | mono sound |
[00:19:00] | ** MrSpiffy shudders ** | |
[00:19:00] | juski: | but you can upsample it to 5.1 in xine lol |
[00:20:00] | MrSpiffy: | sick man |
[00:20:00] | MrSpiffy: | 5.1 mono |
[00:24:00] | h3x: | are you sure its mono sound? |

[00:29:00] | MrSpiffy: | actually |
[00:29:00] | MrSpiffy: | maybe not mono |
[00:29:00] | MrSpiffy: | only found 1 reference to it |
[00:30:00] | MrSpiffy: | and that might be wrong |
[00:33:00] | MrSpiffy: | nope |
[00:33:00] | MrSpiffy: | doesn;t look like a mono sound |

[00:36:00] | NightBird: | mce are the microsoft certified cards |
[00:37:00] | NightBird: | that means you can use them in the microsoft tv version of their os... |
[00:37:00] | NightBird: | they don't have a remote, but they have a radio tuner... |
[00:37:00] | NightBird: | not sure if myth can pick up the radio tuner.... |
[00:38:00] | eidolon: | hm. |
[00:38:00] | eidolon: | i'm gonna need the remote, yes? |
[00:38:00] | eidolon: | i'm most likely going to run knoppmyth, which IIRC, has a prebuilt kernel with LIRC configured for the hauppage remote. |
[00:39:00] | Krazylegz: | Yes it does. |
[00:39:00] | eidolon: | okay, so i should do that. odd that the non-mce version is cheaper. :) |
[00:39:00] | eidolon: | er. |
[00:39:00] | eidolon: | no, it isn't. never mind :) |
[00:40:00] | NightBird: | you don't need a remote, but.... |
[00:40:00] | NightBird: | it makes things a bit nicer.. |
[00:40:00] | eidolon: | well. if i'm going to park this in with the stereo gear, i'll want to control it via remote, yes? |
[00:40:00] | NightBird: | or get a wireless keyboard |
[00:40:00] | NightBird: | :P |
[00:40:00] | eidolon: | true. bulky though. |
[00:40:00] | NightBird: | yeah |
[00:42:00] | NightBird: | but it allows for using it like a linux box as well... |
[00:42:00] | NightBird: | :P |

[03:12:00] | B5Duster: | hello everyone – I'm having sort of a strange issue. I seem to have lost my ringbuffer (I believe it was because I discovered my mounted /cache was not mounted during the install). I can play video through mplayer fine (/dev/video) however I get the "Can't initialize video" error when I try to play liveTV. /cache/cache is empty. Can I recreate it somehow? mythtv-setup doesn't do it. |
[03:14:00] | juski: | what's mythtv-setup set to use as the ringbuffer location? 'cache/cache? |

[03:16:00] | juski: | is it mounted now, B5Duster? |
[03:16:00] | B5Duster: | unless that has changed in the new ver |
[03:16:00] | B5Duster: | juski, yes |
[03:16:00] | juski: | and when you ls /cache/cache ? |
[03:16:00] | juski: | nothing there? |
[03:16:00] | B5Duster: | nothing |
[03:17:00] | juski: | you set the right permissions? |
[03:17:00] | B5Duster: | yes. Mythtv user has access to all of cache |
[03:17:00] | juski: | you could run mythbackend in a terminal session... see what the error message is when you try to watch tv |
[03:18:00] | B5Duster: | drwxr-xr-x 4 mythtv mythtv 4096 Sep 16 18:14 cache |
[03:18:00] | B5Duster: | juski, See, that's just it. I don't see anything that resembles an error msg |
[03:18:00] | redfox: | I just installed the latest version of ivtv, and my pvr-150 seems to be working... should I upgrade firmware or let it go? |
[03:18:00] | juski: | was it working before, B5Duster? |
[03:18:00] | B5Duster: | before I was getting unable to open cache/cache/ringbuf1.nuv so i created cache/cache and it never complained again |
[03:19:00] | B5Duster: | but instated of the black screen I get the unable to init error from mythfrontend |
[03:19:00] | B5Duster: | no, not really :) |
[03:19:00] | B5Duster: | This is a new install |
[03:19:00] | juski: | redfox – if it ain't broken ;-) |
[03:19:00] | redfox: | juski, that is what I'm thinking... |
[03:19:00] | juski: | has livetv ever worked for you in mythtv, B5Duster? |
[03:20:00] | juski: | if it has, I don't think the problem lies with mythtv |
[03:20:00] | juski: | oops.. I mean if it HASN'T |
[03:20:00] | joat: | my program listings are off by 4 hours, and I'm guessing because I had one time zone or another wrong somewhere |
[03:20:00] | B5Duster: | well it has on other machines of similar design |
[03:20:00] | juski: | that ain't the same thing, B5Duster |
[03:20:00] | joat: | I tried changing time zone adjustment to auto in mythsetup, and re-ran mythfilldatabase, with no change |
[03:21:00] | B5Duster: | and like I said, it's not the decoder card if I can grab from /dev/video |
[03:21:00] | B5Duster: | I know, I know |
[03:21:00] | B5Duster: | I've never encountered anything like this before though |
[03:21:00] | joat: | any suggestions? |
[03:21:00] | juski: | I've read something on the users mailing list about this, B5Duster... video seems to work by catting /dev/video0 into mplayer, but doesn't in mythtv |
[03:22:00] | juski: | joat – a while ago Qt was causing issues with the time being messed up in the EPG |
[03:22:00] | juski: | maybe your linux timezone is out of step with your Tv grabber |
[03:22:00] | B5Duster: | no I know, you're actually viewing recorded video when watching livetv in myth, but all the problems I've ever had required troubleshooting the cap card – this is new territory for me |
[03:23:00] | joat: | I'm using a fairly old version of myth |
[03:23:00] | joat: | the last stable in portage |
[03:23:00] | juski: | I suggest searching the users (and dev) mailing list, B5 |
[03:23:00] | B5Duster: | juski, Thanks, I shall. |
[03:23:00] | juski: | what version, joat? 0.18.1-r2 ? |
[03:23:00] | joat: | yea |
[03:24:00] | juski: | should be fine I think, joat – it's ok for me... which tv grabber you using, out of interest? |
[03:24:00] | joat: | pvr-150mce |
[03:24:00] | juski: | no I mean which EPG grabber |
[03:24:00] | joat: | oh, zap2it |
[03:24:00] | juski: | you set your locality correctly there? |
[03:25:00] | joat: | I think so |
[03:25:00] | juski: | and is your linux TZ correct? |
[03:25:00] | joat: | dunno, how would I check? |
[03:25:00] | juski: | and.. did you try entering an offset of 4 hours into mythtv, joat? |
[03:26:00] | joat: | not yet, I wanted to see if I could fix it correctly, rather than just sticking that in |
[03:26:00] | joat: | it was originally set to none, not auto, and if I can't figure out where the tz is wrong, I'll just try + and – 4 |
[03:27:00] | juski: | I'm damned if I can remember where linux keeps its TZ files lol |

[05:31:00] | GreyFoxx: | h3x01A5: That would work |
[05:32:00] | h3x01A5: | i want to be able to use mythtv on my regular tv |
[05:32:00] | GreyFoxx: | Assuming you have s-video in to the TV or a s-video-> composite adapter |
[05:32:00] | h3x01A5: | its an older tv with only coax and RCA jacks (r,y,w) |
[05:33:00] | GreyFoxx: | an s-video to composite(rca) adapter is what you need then |
[05:33:00] | jnc: | h3x01A5: you'll need nvidia drivers |
[05:33:00] | h3x01A5: | how much does one of those cost |
[05:33:00] | jnc: | like 25 bucks at a walmart |
[05:33:00] | jnc: | they are overpriced there |
[05:33:00] | GreyFoxx: | h3x01A5: Most cards come with one. But you can usually find an adapter or a svideo->composite cable for around $20 or less |
[05:33:00] | jnc: | you want to find one from an online cable store for 8 dollars usd |
[05:33:00] | jnc: | yes |
[05:34:00] | h3x01A5: | ok |

[05:35:00] | h3x01A5: | can't i just take a S-Video cable from my video card to the liteon burner? |
[05:36:00] | GreyFoxx: | Likely |
[05:36:00] | GreyFoxx: | you will have to experiment on your own to find out :) |
[05:37:00] | h3x01A5: | will a coax splitter work? it has 1 in and 2 outs |
[05:37:00] | h3x01A5: | its an "2-way amplifier" |
[05:37:00] | GreyFoxx: | work for what ? |
[05:37:00] | h3x01A5: | for getting it on my TV |
[05:37:00] | GreyFoxx: | no |
[05:38:00] | GreyFoxx: | S-video is not coax |
[05:38:00] | h3x01A5: | no i mean |
[05:38:00] | h3x01A5: | a coax cable that goes from the capture card to the splitter (OUT), the cable feed goes in IN, and TV goes to (OUT) |

[05:47:00] | D-side: | ignore my whining. "unknown change" was just remembered. |
[05:47:00] | GreyFoxx: | the pvr250 / pvr150 are by far the most common. quality is good, uses no CPU for compression. But they are standard tv only |
[05:47:00] | eidolon: | hm. what's a wintv model 190? |
[05:48:00] | h3x01A5: | what do you mean by standard tv only |
[05:48:00] | ** eidolon assumes this is something to avoid. ** | |
[05:48:00] | GreyFoxx: | h3x01A5: No HDTV, and no DVB/satellite |
[05:48:00] | GreyFoxx: | the PVR xxx cards are for standard analog cable |
[05:48:00] | h3x01A5: | what is DVB |
[05:48:00] | GreyFoxx: | digital video broadcast. Digital cable/Satellite |
[05:49:00] | h3x01A5: | is there any out there that work with both |
[05:49:00] | h3x01A5: | and are mythtv compatible |
[05:49:00] | GreyFoxx: | no |
[05:49:00] | h3x01A5: | im assuming by DVB you're referring to the pcHD3000? |
[05:50:00] | GreyFoxx: | well, maybe the pchdtv3000. But the standard capture doesn't use hardware compression. It will do over the air HDTV and some unencrypted digital cable (which is getting more rare every day) |
[05:50:00] | GreyFoxx: | h3x01A5: no, dvb is dvb. |
[05:50:00] | h3x01A5: | out of curiousity, what card do you use |
[05:50:00] | h3x01A5: | and what type of signal do you have |
[05:50:00] | GreyFoxx: | My box currently has 3 pvr250's on regular cable |
[05:51:00] | GreyFoxx: | I use to have a dvbs card connected to my dish, but nothing is interesting in the unencrypted stuff so I took it out |
[05:51:00] | h3x01A5: | what is the difference between the 150 and 250 model and can you give me a rough est of how much these cards go for |
[05:51:00] | GreyFoxx: | h3x01A5: google is your friend |

[05:55:00] | h3x01A4: | i only see the front box on google |
[05:55:00] | D-side: | if it doesnt say "MCE" on the end, probably. |
[05:55:00] | GreyFoxx: | It depends on if you get the MCE versions or not I think. I think the retail versions do. but it should say on any box or add |
[05:58:00] | h3x01A4: | now, us-cable and us-cable-hrc |
[05:59:00] | h3x01A4: | how do i figure which one i got |
[05:59:00] | GreyFoxx: | try one, then the other |

[09:31:00] | timschmidt: | wouldn't suprise me. |
[09:32:00] | timschmidt: | It's been available in Ubuntu for as long as I can remember (which is based on Debian unstable) and since Sarge was just recently released, I'd assume it's available in sarge... checking... |
[09:33:00] | fatmatt: | looks like its in testing |
[09:34:00] | fatmatt: | no plugins though |
[09:34:00] | timschmidt: | Yeah, not in main. |
[09:35:00] | fatmatt: | maybe I can install the plugins from source... |
[09:36:00] | timschmidt: | I'm sure it's possible, I'm also sure I wouldn't like to try it. |
[09:36:00] | timschmidt: | but maybe someone here has done it before? |
[09:37:00] | B5Duster: | hmm looks like x.org cvs is the way to go with this chipset |

[09:38:00] | timschmidt: | Ah... |
[09:39:00] | B5Duster: | support is a bit sketchy for it |

[09:39:00] | B5Duster: | hm |
[09:40:00] | B5Duster: | well 'Ivor' released some unichrome drivers but evidently they don't support this chip |

[09:42:00] | timschmidt: | is this what you're talking about: http://unichrome.sourceforge.net/ |
[09:42:00] | timschmidt: | ? |
[09:43:00] | B5Duster: | yes, dug around there already |
[09:45:00] | timschmidt: | Ok then. That's all I got. ;) I've been using a Chaintech 7NIF2 for my frontend for a while... It's Nforce2 based. |

[09:48:00] | B5Duster: | and the pvr350 wouldn't fit in the case so I threw money at a mainboard instead |
[09:48:00] | B5Duster: | these damn things are never-ending projects :) |
[09:48:00] | timschmidt: | I've worked with C3's before (and loved them — mostly) and that doesn't suprise me. |
[09:49:00] | B5Duster: | it worked great for everything except dvd playback |
[09:49:00] | timschmidt: | You're telling me... I've just re-worked my setup from a 1.4Ghz duron with my 7NIF2 to a master backend (the 1.4 duron in another motherboard) running Debian stable + Xen 2.0.7, with Myth as a DomU, Asterisk@Home as a DomU, and an Ubuntu Breezy remote-desktop-via-NX as a DomU... |
[09:49:00] | B5Duster: | but no matter what I did I couldn't get it to stop dropping frames and de-sync a/v |

[13:34:00] | levolap: | sweet |
[13:34:00] | juski: | my cable provider only gives 3 days worth of EPG data |
[13:34:00] | juski: | :( |
[13:35:00] | levolap: | mine gives almost a week, but still not enough for most planning. |
[13:35:00] | juski: | I got my code to stop grabbing the epg.. but it's still needed on some channels |
[13:36:00] | juski: | problems I've been having are all down to my lack of knowledge of QT & c++ lol |
[13:36:00] | juski: | getting there tho |
[13:38:00] | juski: | in the DBox2EPG::GetChannelID function you do a query.bindValue ... does that just return the value from the channum column into channelnumber ? |
[13:40:00] | levolap: | bindValue replaces a dynamic variable inside a statement |
[13:40:00] | levolap: | it does not return anything |
[13:44:00] | levolap: | yummy... |

[13:45:00] | juski: | lol laga |
[13:46:00] | laga: | designated* |
[13:51:00] | juski: | so levon, apologies for my stupid questions... the getchannelID function ... to me it looks like it's getting chanid from channel and returning it in a string |
[13:52:00] | juski: | while putting channelnumber into the channum column? |
[13:55:00] | levolap: | ?? |
[13:55:00] | levolap: | I really cannot follow your question |
[13:55:00] | levolap: | query.prepare() prepares an SQL query |
[13:55:00] | levolap: | if you want to put your values into a prepared sql statement, you use the bindvalue method |
[13:56:00] | juski: | AHH |
[13:56:00] | juski: | the penny drops |

[14:00:00] | levolap: | into a prepared query, yes. you could also just create a string containing your query and concatenate your where clause, but prepared statements are a lot faster. |
[14:00:00] | juski: | cool... that's helped me make a leap :) |

[14:37:00] | foobum: | card juggling? |
[14:37:00] | foobum: | and no.. the card is new |
[14:38:00] | juski: | then the card isn't necessarily hosed, foobum |
[14:38:00] | foobum: | if you mean a different pci slot then yeah.. |
[14:38:00] | foobum: | what else should i try? |
[14:38:00] | juski: | hmm |
[14:38:00] | juski: | could be a pci bus latency prob |
[14:38:00] | foobum: | how would i diagnose / fix? |
[14:40:00] | juski: | is the problem just that when you play a file into the card, you get crap audio at the audio outputs?.. is video ok? |
[14:41:00] | foobum: | well yeah.. video is kinda ok – it's quite "jumpy" (linux and windows) but the only thing present on the audio out (which is hooked straight into an amp) is some crackly static kinda stuff |
[14:41:00] | foobum: | this happens the same in windows and linux |
[14:41:00] | foobum: | in windows the sound does come out of my sound card ok |
[14:42:00] | juski: | could be that the card doesn't work, or simply that it's just not getting data fast enough over the bus |
[14:42:00] | foobum: | im suspecting the card |
[14:42:00] | foobum: | i figure if it doesnt work in windows, it just doesnt work |
[14:42:00] | juski: | you could be right |
[14:42:00] | foobum: | i hope so.. i really don't want two that don't work :) |

[14:43:00] | foobum: | nah |
[14:43:00] | juski: | well if it's no hassle to swap the card out, try that |
[14:43:00] | foobum: | yeah.. i just wondered whether i was being stupid :) |

[14:44:00] | juski: | ahh right |
[14:44:00] | foobum: | or.. i spose i could use it as a second surce |
[14:44:00] | foobum: | sky -> 1 RF -> 2 |
[14:45:00] | foobum: | then i can watch terrestial while i record sky i guess |

[14:45:00] | foobum: | i'll take the other one back |
[14:45:00] | foobum: | i just hope it is hardware :) |
[14:45:00] | juski: | where did you buy the card from? |
[14:46:00] | foobum: | oh some UK online retailer (that i know quite well) |
[14:46:00] | foobum: | shouldnt be a problem to get it swapped / refunded |
[14:46:00] | juski: | ahh cool... some of the places I know charge a handling/testing fee! |
[14:46:00] | foobum: | ah.. nah.. they'll just take it back no problem |
[14:47:00] | juski: | good luck with that then ;) |

[16:56:00] | funkyelf: | so cable tuners are still good? I heard that it was all analog cable or air |

[16:57:00] | PatrickDK: | that is not under goverment control |
[16:57:00] | PatrickDK: | that isn't to say that the cable companies won't stop using analog cable, if all their sources start coming in digital |
[16:58:00] | PatrickDK: | but the gov can't froce the cable company to switch to digital |
[17:00:00] | funkyelf: | do you know if the composite or s-video in on the PVR 500 MCE can do hardware mpeg2 encoding? |
[17:00:00] | juski: | funkyelf... yes |
[17:01:00] | juski: | both encoders can take comp & svid inputs :) |
[17:01:00] | juski: | (2nd AV inputs come in on a header.. .optional extra) |
[17:01:00] | funkyelf: | oh, so I can use comp and svid at the same time and have both HW encoded? |
[17:02:00] | PatrickDK: | only if you use differnt inputs |
[17:02:00] | PatrickDK: | the one on the card is input1 |
[17:02:00] | PatrickDK: | you need to get the input2 header to do that |
[17:02:00] | funkyelf: | okay...so input1 is composite and svideo whichever I choose to use |
[17:02:00] | PatrickDK: | yes, that is default on the card |

[17:03:00] | PatrickDK: | you need the $15 header to convert the plug into the jacks to use |
[17:04:00] | funkyelf: | so can I set up myth to use both cable tuners and also the svideo from my cable box...so I'll have 3 inputs, but i can just only record two things at a time? |
[17:04:00] | PatrickDK: | basically |
[17:04:00] | funkyelf: | is it hard to setup lirc to change channels on my cable box? |

[18:37:00] | guitar256: | hey all, I've gotten to the point in jarod's how-to where /usr/bin/irw is run, however i'm not getting any output....everything has gone smoothly, and I think the services are up and running, any suggestions? |
[18:41:00] | guitar256: | Also, ivtv isn't getting loaded when booting, i'm pretty sure this is related |
[18:42:00] | PatrickDK: | ya, you need ivtv loaded |
[18:46:00] | guitar256: | i added all the lines into modprobe.conf and it's still not loading up on its own |
[18:47:00] | MrSpiffy: | guitar256, the items in modprobe.conf get loaded with those options when a program runs that requires them |
[18:48:00] | MrSpiffy: | guitar256, so if you want to load the ivtv module at startup put it in your rc.local file "modprobe module options" |
[18:48:00] | guitar256: | well mythbackend loads up, which needs them, but fails cause ivtv isn't loaded |
[18:48:00] | guitar256: | so it's not calling modprobe.conf |
[18:49:00] | guitar256: | however, modprobe.conf has my nvidia info in it, which is getting loaded |
[18:49:00] | MrSpiffy: | nope – that's a config file for the modules that are loaded when something else needs tham |
[18:49:00] | guitar256: | and, i did try putting stuff in rc.local, and compy wouldn't boot |
[18:50:00] | MrSpiffy: | for instance – if you type modprobe ivtv on command line, modprobe.conf will be consulted to check for options |
[18:50:00] | MrSpiffy: | gahead – try it |
[18:50:00] | guitar256: | i'm aware, it does work |
[18:50:00] | guitar256: | when i tried sticking /sbin/modprove ivtv into rc.local |
[18:50:00] | guitar256: | mythbackend froze when trying to boot |

[18:52:00] | guitar256: | fc4 |
[18:52:00] | MrSpiffy: | ok |
[18:52:00] | MrSpiffy: | let's try this one step at a time |
[18:52:00] | MrSpiffy: | first, stop mythbackend |
[18:52:00] | MrSpiffy: | /etc/init.s/mythbackend stop |
[18:52:00] | MrSpiffy: | /etc/init.d/mythbackend stop |
[18:52:00] | guitar256: | i'm trying modprobe in rc.local again |
[18:52:00] | guitar256: | hold on, rebooting |
[18:52:00] | MrSpiffy: | one sec man – try it from command line first so we can see what's happening |
[18:52:00] | MrSpiffy: | *sigh* |
[18:52:00] | MrSpiffy: | ok |
[18:56:00] | PatrickDK: | heh, people are used to windows |
[18:56:00] | PatrickDK: | you have to reboot every time :) |
[18:56:00] | MrSpiffy: | yeah |

[18:56:00] | guitar256: | hey, be nice :( i'm trying |
[18:56:00] | guitar256: | allright, that worked this time, however..../usr/bin/irw is now giving me "connection refused" |
[18:57:00] | MrSpiffy: | guitar256, did mythbackend start ok also ? |
[18:57:00] | PatrickDK: | you don't have lircd setup right than probably |
[18:57:00] | guitar256: | well, no cause i forgot to set it to do that, but once i manually started it it started fine |
[18:57:00] | guitar256: | ...just gotta check that box |
[18:57:00] | MrSpiffy: | ok |
[18:57:00] | MrSpiffy: | start the lirc daemon |
[18:57:00] | MrSpiffy: | /etc/init.d/lirc start |
[18:58:00] | MrSpiffy: | is that right? I don;t have one... |
[18:58:00] | guitar256: | ...that *is* set to start |
[18:58:00] | MrSpiffy: | but did it |
[18:58:00] | MrSpiffy: | that's the q |
[18:58:00] | PatrickDK: | I start lircd with /usr/local/sbin/lircd -d /dev/lirc0 |
[18:58:00] | PatrickDK: | after I modprobe lirc_i2c |
[18:58:00] | guitar256: | k, hang on, i'm in system-config-services |
[18:59:00] | guitar256: | and i restarted it, then ran irw, except it kills lircd |
[18:59:00] | PatrickDK: | that is cause lircd isn't setup right |
[18:59:00] | PatrickDK: | run the lircd command I pasted |
[18:59:00] | guitar256: | obviously? |
[19:00:00] | guitar256: | kk |
[19:00:00] | PatrickDK: | hmm, I need a faster development machine |
[19:01:00] | MrSpiffy: | I need to clean the old host names out of the mythconverg db |
[19:01:00] | MrSpiffy: | it's confusing me – trying to change the key binding on pg-up and pg-down |
[19:01:00] | MrSpiffy: | myth default is backwards in my opinion |
[19:01:00] | PatrickDK: | ya |
[19:01:00] | PatrickDK: | I totally changed mine around |
[19:01:00] | MrSpiffy: | as in page UP should be Forward |
[19:02:00] | MrSpiffy: | just like mplayer |
[19:02:00] | MrSpiffy: | bu that's me |

[19:03:00] | MrSpiffy: | hence the binding change |
[19:04:00] | guitar256: | PatrickDK, in fc4 that command doesn't work, do you want me to just restart lircd in system-config-services? |

[19:09:00] | Cairan: | of course I could always use transcode with a pipe and mencoder... |
[19:09:00] | GreyFoxx: | What kind fo recording? mpeg4/rtjpeg or mpeg2 ? |

[20:42:00] | joseronnick: | yeah.. but also.. in the mythsetup screen.. when I click get lineups or whatever.. it just tries to do something.. and then the listbox (where I assume a list of your lineups comes up) is always blank |
[20:43:00] | redfox: | hmm I'm not sure... I'm still setting up my myth box as well, but mythfilldatabase works fine for me |
[20:44:00] | joseronnick: | hmm.. okay.. thanks for the confirmation... I'm gonna try messing w/ the perl scripts from zap2it |
[20:45:00] | redfox: | alright good luck... sorry I'm not more help |
[20:45:00] | redfox: | I would guess it has to be a user/password issue |
[20:45:00] | joseronnick: | just knowing that it's working for someone else is really helpful actually |
[20:46:00] | redfox: | yeah I didn't have any real issues with that part... I've been following the guide on www.gentoo-wiki.com |
[20:46:00] | joseronnick: | oh yeah.. nice.. me too.. and some stuff on the forums.. |
[20:46:00] | joseronnick: | what kinda capture care do you have? |
[20:46:00] | redfox: | pvr 150 |
[20:47:00] | joseronnick: | cool.. I'm using a pvr 500 |
[20:47:00] | redfox: | nice |
[20:57:00] | qfx: | redfox. can you help me get my pvr 150 working? |
[20:57:00] | redfox: | qfx, possibly |
[20:57:00] | redfox: | to get mine to work, I used the latest ivtv from ivtv.tv |
[20:57:00] | qfx: | did you recompile it from CVS? |
[20:57:00] | guitar256: | ok ok, kernel compiled, now the guide is saying i need to use the *exact same* nvidia driver......well I yum installed it, where does yum deposite the pkg so that i can use it? |
[20:58:00] | redfox: | no just got the latest version |
[20:58:00] | qfx: | I used atrpms to get it for my box, but I'm willing to give a compile a shot |
[20:58:00] | redfox: | I used 0.3.9 |
[20:58:00] | qfx: | From ivtv.tv? |
[20:58:00] | redfox: | yeah under unstable releases |
[20:59:00] | redfox: | the current version in gentoo didn't work for my card either, so I had to download and install it from there |
[20:59:00] | joseronnick: | yeah, me too.. 0.3.9 |
[20:59:00] | joseronnick: | just cat /doc/quickstart |

[21:02:00] | qfx: | would it work with Fedora though redfox? |
[21:02:00] | redfox: | yeah they talk about building from source |
[21:02:00] | qfx: | OK, thanks |
[21:03:00] | qfx: | This channel is WAY more useful than the ivtv channel :) |

[21:04:00] | rben: | anyone ever edit the mpeg-2 files |
[21:04:00] | redfox: | joseronnick, I honestly don't know... leme look around |

[21:10:00] | rben: | I'll download it and try it |
[21:10:00] | rben: | might do the trick |

[21:13:00] | rben: | qfx, it won't open mpeg-2, but perhaps after I transcode it will work for me |
[21:13:00] | redfox: | install just copies some files over, you can do it by hand if you want |

[21:14:00] | redfox: | yeah just do make install |

[21:15:00] | redfox: | ah ok jeez |
[21:15:00] | guitar256: | oh and, the guide mentions something about having to install the nvidia drivers before reboot, couldn't i just reboot and then yum install them again? |
[21:15:00] | redfox: | I do the make install by hand, but make install works for most people |
[21:16:00] | redfox: | you can reboot and reinstall the drivers, but x might not load |
[21:16:00] | guitar256: | but yum is all command prompt wonderfulness so, just yum install nvidia..., and reboot ought to work? |

[21:23:00] | iceman: | surely there must be a plan to compress the traffic somewhat? |
[21:23:00] | guitar256: | turn down the recording resolution' |
[21:23:00] | GreyFoxx: | 54megabit is far more than enough for streaming a show or 2. The problem is you are likely not getting a clean 54megabit |

[23:06:00] | enthalpyX: | Hey, does anyone know what config file or DB table the offset for getting TV listings is stored? |
[23:06:00] | enthalpyX: | I've got the appropriate offset set in mythtv-setup, but all the channel listings seem to be GMT. |

[23:11:00] | Bio: | It really depends on which one you have. |
[23:17:00] | BoBotheClown: | hello group |
[23:17:00] | BoBotheClown: | a question |
[23:18:00] | st0rmy: | Bio, pctv pro |
[23:18:00] | BoBotheClown: | I have myth set up and all is working well |
[23:18:00] | BoBotheClown: | I would like to pipe s-ideo out of my cable box and into my pvr350 |
[23:18:00] | joat: | enthalpy, I have the same problem with listings |
[23:19:00] | joat: | so if you find a solution, let me know :D |
[23:19:00] | BoBotheClown: | but the only way I know to capture video that way is to change ivtv to 6 |
[23:19:00] | joat: | I'm about ready to change my system clock from UTC to my local time |
[23:19:00] | BoBotheClown: | the cat /dev/video > file.mpg |
[23:19:00] | enthalpyX: | joat: that's what I just tried |
[23:19:00] | BoBotheClown: | can myth capture that data? |
[23:19:00] | enthalpyX: | joat: refreshing TV listings now |
[23:24:00] | joat: | any joy? |
[23:25:00] | cosmo_: | what kind of playback performance can I expect to get out of a 1ghz box with 150mb ram and a geforce card? |
[23:26:00] | GreyFoxx: | Assuming you aren' ttrying to play hdtv that should be fine |
[23:26:00] | dant (n=dan@81-86-69-213.dsl.pipex.com) has joined #mythtv-users | |
[23:26:00] | joat: | make sure you have DMA enabled on your drives. I was getting skipping on a amd64 3000 until I enabled it |
[23:26:00] | GreyFoxx: | cosmo_: is that just a frontend or a backend as well? |
[23:26:00] | joat: | now it's silky smooth |
[23:28:00] | st0rmy (n=ykotak@202.134.188.159) Quit () | |
[23:28:00] | cosmo_: | just frontend |
[23:29:00] | jhoke: | Heyas... dumb documentation question... where are all the various settings in the Recording Profile/transcoding profile documented? |
[23:30:00] | GreyFoxx: | jhoke: I don't think there is specific documentation for them |
[23:30:00] | GreyFoxx: | at least tnothing I've noticed |
[23:30:00] | jhoke: | I have a PVR250 and trying to set up two different profiles (damn good quality and ok... ) |
[23:30:00] | GreyFoxx: | probably something on someones wiki somehwere |
[23:30:00] | jhoke: | Grey... that's what I figured;.. just wanted to make sure I wasn't losing my mind :) |

[23:31:00] | jhoke: | I have everything running fairly well on a FC4 based box, but once I get comfy with Myth I will be buying a new system to install it on... its been about 3 years since I built a box lol |
[23:31:00] | GreyFoxx: | fun stuff |
[23:32:00] | jhoke: | The beauty of Linux ... things work ...no neeed to upgrade... its also a curse I guess... haven'[t had to look at MoBo;s CPUs etc in years |
[23:33:00] | jhoke: | In a FE/BE config, the capture cards (hdtv and pvr's) go in the BE right? So the BE needs to be fairly beefy.. but the FE can be a bit less? I am thinking of running the FE off a diskless box for cooling/sound just want to make sure I grok it right |
[23:34:00] | GreyFoxx: | the be only needs to be beefy if you go with cheaper framegrabber cards |
[23:34:00] | jhoke: | I thought HDTV ike the 3000 needed a bit more CPU |
[23:34:00] | GreyFoxx: | if you get cards with hardware compression (or are using hdtv stuff) then the cpu doesn't need todo much work |
[23:34:00] | GreyFoxx: | that;s playback |
[23:34:00] | jhoke: | Ah.. FE... k |
[23:35:00] | GreyFoxx: | but you can still do diskless FE's :) |
[23:35:00] | GreyFoxx: | jhoke: If you capture standard cable with the hdtv3000 it uses software compression., If you use it to grab ASTC HDTV the stuff is already mpeg2 as it comes in |
[23:35:00] | jhoke: | I plan on the BE being in the basement ... (building a house now) connected by gigabit ether to the rest of the network. BE will basically just be a box wiht lotsa disks and capture cards |
[23:36:00] | GreyFoxx: | jhoke: yup, that's how many do it when they have multiple FE's |
[23:36:00] | GreyFoxx: | I've got a machine in my basement that stores all media/captures and 4 diskless frontends around the house for playback |
[23:37:00] | jhoke: | Grey: Thanks, so If i just use the 3000 for over the air HDTV and keep my pvr250 (or get a 500) for cable then the CPU is not all that intense, but the FE for playback of HD will be cpu heavy? |
[23:37:00] | jhoke: | Grey: Exactly the setup I am looking at (multi FE) |
[23:37:00] | GreyFoxx: | yeah |
[23:38:00] | GreyFoxx: | I use 3 PC based frontends and 1 MediaMVP |

[23:38:00] | jhoke: | Then one last dumb question I am trying to grok... if my Cable provider has STB with Firewire outs, then I do not need the PVRs anymore (and maybe not hte3000 either?) |
[23:38:00] | GreyFoxx: | All playing standard cable though. No over the air HDTV here :/ |
[23:39:00] | jhoke: | Like I said,I am building a house and moving, so I do not yet know what the monopoly will give me in the new area |
[23:39:00] | GreyFoxx: | jhoke: IF the port is enabled you can capture from it . BUT they can disable it, and in some cases make it lower the video down to standard resolutions |
[23:39:00] | jhoke: | thnx |
[23:40:00] | jhoke: | worth trying before buying more cards :) |
[23:40:00] | GreyFoxx: | yeah , for sure |
[23:41:00] | guitar256: | GreyFoxx: I compiled the kernel w/ your ati_remote in it.....can I continue using my existing kernel just swapping out the new ati_remote.ko for the old one? |
[23:41:00] | jhoke: | thanks! I think I have the essentialls groked ... I have an AMD64 laying around that I will use for the diskless FE and get a silverstone case for it :) the BE will just stay in the ugly ass box it is in .. large, plenty of HD bays |
[23:42:00] | GreyFoxx: | guitar256: Assuming you used the same kernel version and all that you likely can |
[23:42:00] | GreyFoxx: | jhoke: I'm drolling over the silverstone lc16m |
[23:42:00] | GreyFoxx: | guitar256: I assume you are using a Niveus remote, or a OneBoxMC remote ? |

[23:43:00] | guitar256: | niveus yea |
[23:43:00] | GreyFoxx: | I saw you talking about lirc earlier so I assumed you were using that |
[23:43:00] | enthalpyX: | joat: changing my local tz worked |
[23:43:00] | guitar256: | nah, i was trying to get that working, it's not working out |
[23:44:00] | enthalpyX: | joat: using tzconfig & date -s |
[23:44:00] | joat: | local tz, or system clock tz? |
[23:44:00] | jhoke: | Grey: I dont like the center DVD bay :( was thinkint the 10-M or the 14M |
[23:44:00] | GreyFoxx: | Using the modified ati_Remote driver you need to be sure to load the ati_Remote with lolatype=1 |
[23:44:00] | joat: | date -s shows my time as EST, correctly |
[23:44:00] | GreyFoxx: | jhoke: I want the knob+ control buttons |
[23:44:00] | joat: | the osd inside myth shows the system time, not the EST time |
[23:44:00] | joat: | it's ignoring the timezone symlink |
[23:45:00] | guitar256: | i'm not sure what do do after 'modprobe ati_remote lolatype=1' |
[23:45:00] | enthalpyX: | joat: hmm |
[23:45:00] | jhoke: | Grey: gotcha ... what I am really drooling over is the 18 with the touchscreen... Wife woudl kill me though :) |
[23:45:00] | GreyFoxx: | at that point it should be ready to use |
[23:45:00] | guitar256: | but i'll get to that later, i got somethin else going on, somethin w/ ivtv not loading and causing the frontend and/or backend to freeze |
[23:45:00] | GreyFoxx: | jhoke: I don't like having a screen on the system, but it does have the cool factor |
[23:46:00] | jhoke: | Ok, time to go actually poke around the settings... try to find some wiki guides to them ... hell, if I ever figure them out I may doc'em |
