[00:00:00] | mofu: | Lightning: happy w/ 18.1 here |
[00:00:00] | fatmatt: | mofu: did you get the packages from mdz? or cvs? |
[00:00:00] | simon_c_home: | Would it ever be the case that upgrading to the lates code base would do something to the database that would stop earlier, stable versions from running ? I'd like to be able to test the latest stuff, but be able to fall back to the current version (running under a different userID) if I get problems. Would this work ? |
[00:00:00] | mofu: | but concerned I may need to explore svn for better DVB support |
[00:01:00] | mofu: | fatmatt: you should put mdz src repository in your sources.list |
[00:02:00] | mofu: | fatmatt: apt-get build-dep mythtv |
[00:02:00] | mofu: | fatmatt: apt-get source mythtv |
[00:03:00] | mofu: | fatmatt: cd mythtv-0.18.1/ |
[00:03:00] | mofu: | fatmatt: dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -us -uc -b |
[00:05:00] | mofu: | use dkpg -i to install resulting deb's it may spit back a couple errror meesages about needed dependencies, just install them w/ apt-get |
[00:05:00] | rasto: | my infrared remote on pvr350 doesnt work. it did with kernel-2.6.13 and lirc 0.7.2 then i moved to 2.6.14 and i had to use 0.7.3 cvs version lirc. since then i mythtv doesnt react to infrared ... any ideas? how do i view log that is in database? |
[00:06:00] | mofu: | myth doesn't log to database |
[00:06:00] | rasto: | strange b/c on setup screen i can setup logging to mysql |

[00:07:00] | Beirdo: | mofu, yes it does log to database |
[00:07:00] | mofu: | must be new to svn |
[00:07:00] | mofu: | ? |
[00:07:00] | Beirdo: | at least it did a while ago |
[00:07:00] | kormoc: | it had that option at least at .17 |
[00:07:00] | simon_c_home: | Beirdo: It's an option in .18.1 |
[00:07:00] | Beirdo: | unless that code got ripped out |
[00:07:00] | Kabutor: | Waiting for mythtranscode to set up the fifos <== Nuvexport problem .. any suggest where to look? |

[00:18:00] | fatmatt: | can someone please tell me the apt-get install option to ignore dependencies? |
[00:18:00] | mofu: | yeah, doesnt' my entry above look correct, will it tolerate a sym link? |
[00:18:00] | Agrajag-: | no, it's not correct. i think you need to improve your reading skills |

[01:47:00] | atomjack: | i recently upgraded to the latest version of myth from svn, and now live tv doesn't work. nothing at all happens when i try to go to live tv – there's nothing in the log files (for either the frontend or backend). recordings still work just fine, just live tv doesn't do shit. anyone have any ideas? |
[01:47:00] | Beirdo: | correct |
[01:47:00] | Beirdo: | it's broken in SVN right now |
[01:48:00] | Beirdo: | so watch recorded TV for now until it's fixed |
[01:48:00] | atomjack: | ahhhh |
[01:48:00] | atomjack: | ok thanks |
[01:48:00] | Beirdo: | not a problem |
[01:48:00] | atomjack: | i just did another svn update and a bunch of files have been changed so maybe that will help |

[01:50:00] | Beirdo: | what delay? |
[01:50:00] | a1fa: | its annoying.. i wonder if thats the pvr-350 problem, since it has its own audio |
[01:50:00] | Beirdo: | what's delaying in respect to what? |
[01:50:00] | a1fa: | i get like 2s of audio |
[01:50:00] | a1fa: | delayed in respect to the video |
[01:51:00] | a1fa: | my setup is cable->pvr-350 |
[01:51:00] | Beirdo: | when you do what? |
[01:51:00] | a1fa: | audio is transfred via pci bus |
[01:51:00] | a1fa: | watch tv |
[01:51:00] | a1fa: | or record and watch tv |
[01:51:00] | Beirdo: | dunno, never heard of that. |
[01:51:00] | a1fa: | how can you offset audio |
[01:53:00] | Dagmar: | Umm... Using the wrong sample rate |
[01:54:00] | Dagmar: | Do you have a super-duper audio chipset? |
[01:54:00] | a1fa: | how do you set the sample rate? where? |
[01:54:00] | a1fa: | 0000:00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 40) |
[01:54:00] | a1fa: | onboard |
[01:54:00] | Beirdo: | you set it in the recording profile |
[01:54:00] | Dagmar: | Somewhere in the config is hte audio sample rate... Recording Profiles I think. Make sure it's set to 48000. |
[01:55:00] | Dagmar: | Some chipsets won't play at other than that, and if you're using something that's a little off, your audio will get lagged |
[01:55:00] | a1fa: | can i kill mythfrontend while the show is recording? |
[01:55:00] | GreyFoxx: | yes |
[01:55:00] | atomjack: | yep |
[01:55:00] | Dagmar: | Yeah |
[01:55:00] | a1fa: | ok |
[01:55:00] | a1fa: | thats good |
[01:55:00] | atomjack: | as long as you dont kill the backend |

[01:55:00] | mofu: | does the PVR-350 have audio-out when you use the decoder? |

[02:00:00] | a1fa: | i am not stringing it to soundcard |

[02:00:00] | a1fa: | its set to 45000 |
[02:00:00] | a1fa: | i am moving it up |

[02:03:00] | a1fa: | nvidia |
[02:03:00] | a1fa: | for tv-out |
[02:03:00] | mofu: | why buy the 350 then?? |
[02:04:00] | Dagmar: | It was worth a shot. I couldn't think of any other possible reason other than audio driver that could cause the audio to become lagged |
[02:04:00] | a1fa: | it takes me about 2s to change a channel |
[02:04:00] | a1fa: | i borrowed it |
[02:04:00] | a1fa: | i am buying pvr-350 |
[02:04:00] | Dagmar: | That's usual |
[02:04:00] | Dagmar: | It takes a moment for the encoding buffer to fill |

[02:05:00] | a1fa: | channels change in les then a secx |

[02:05:00] | Beirdo: | a1fa, then go back to watching on the TV for instant channel changes. :) |
[02:05:00] | mofu: | no doubt |

[02:10:00] | a1fa: | yes |

[03:10:00] | akaias: | i finall have a working mythtv box but have a small problem. svideo out (nvidia geforce4 4200Ti) works. using DVI however, the picture is to the left of the screeen (several characters are cut). This is on a Samsung 26" widescreen hdtv. I have two chocies for DVI standard: 861B or SMPTE. both start the scrren to far left, and leave cut off chars. this is on boot. I'm not even into X/Gnome yet. Any ideas? |
[03:11:00] | Dagmar: | akaias: Run the nvidia setup utility |
[03:13:00] | akaias: | dagmar: installing it now. do changes with this get written to the card? |
[03:13:00] | Dagmar: | Probably |
[03:15:00] | Dagmar: | ...and it's not something you have to install. It should have come with the nVidia driver and would have been installed when you did that part. |
[03:15:00] | Chutt: | depends on the distro |
[03:15:00] | Chutt: | debian/ubuntu split it off |
[03:15:00] | Dagmar: | That was dumb |
[03:16:00] | Chutt: | it's an extra set of deps |
[03:16:00] | Chutt: | so, no, not really. |
[03:16:00] | Dagmar: | One binary. |
[03:17:00] | Dagmar: | Basically has the same deps as X. Is only used when you have X. |
[03:17:00] | Chutt: | links against gtk |
[03:17:00] | Chutt: | so, no. |
[03:17:00] | Dagmar: | So, no. Separating it from the driver module was dumb. |
[03:17:00] | Chutt: | ldd it :p |
[03:17:00] | Dagmar: | I see it |
[03:17:00] | mstanisl_: | kernel space and userland, it makes perfect sense to seperate. |
[03:17:00] | Chutt: | it certainly depends on more than X |
[03:18:00] | Dagmar: | They've got the capability to declare some dependencies as optional |
[03:18:00] | Chutt: | it also doesn't change as often as the kernel. |
[03:18:00] | Chutt: | and, it's a separate download :p |
[03:18:00] | Chutt: | ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/nvidia-settings/ |
[03:19:00] | akaias: | dagmar: ah. i thought you were talking about the gnome nvidia x settings. |
[03:19:00] | Dagmar: | *sigh* I have been getting it in the same shar archive as the driver itself for years now |
[03:19:00] | Chutt: | yup. it's also available separately. |
[03:19:00] | Dagmar: | It *comes* with the driver. |
[03:19:00] | Chutt: | not always. |
[03:19:00] | Dagmar: | Whatever |
[03:20:00] | Chutt: | might as well bitch about the X server + dev files being split. |
[03:24:00] | akaias: | well nvidia-settings is fine but its GUI. my problem is on first boot, the BIOS text is shifted left. i'm not even booting the kernel yet let alone in gnome. is this an issue with the video card? |
[03:25:00] | Chutt: | a lot of tv's don't like anything other than a few resolutions over dvi |
[03:26:00] | Dagmar: | Adjust your panel. The text screens should be in a fixed position |
[03:27:00] | akaias: | well i'll mess with it,. this is a CRT TV. no lcd here. |
[03:27:00] | Dagmar: | Well, the settings utility is all you've got there then. |
[03:28:00] | ** pookSter wonders if there is anyone lurking here that has heard how well an Nvidia 6600GT video card with component out works with myth? ** | |

[03:30:00] | Dagmar: | It's overkill for Myth |
[03:30:00] | pookSter: | the 6600gt is the one thats under $100 |
[03:30:00] | Dagmar: | ...at least, unless you plan on doing some GL hackery so that channel changes fly apart into little dodecahedrons and so forth |
[03:31:00] | Chutt: | mythui's all opengl |
[03:31:00] | Dagmar: | Yes, but it's flat. |
[03:31:00] | Chutt: | but it's all 2d stuff, so just blends |
[03:31:00] | Dagmar: | ...and you're getting the model number confused if you think the 6600gt regularly sells for sub $100 |
[03:32:00] | Dagmar: | Even the non-GT versions start just over $100 |
[03:32:00] | Dagmar: | Some of the cheaper pci-e models go for in the $90range |

[03:33:00] | Dagmar: | ... cheaper 6600 non-gt |
[03:33:00] | Beirdo: | Hmmm. that tape didn't like me much. |
[03:33:00] | Dagmar: | You can probably use a good name-brand 5200 for what little Myth needs |
[03:33:00] | Beirdo: | Chutt: if there's no openGL on the system, the mythui stuff will revert to "current" blending behavior or something? |
[03:34:00] | Chutt: | current |
[03:34:00] | Chutt: | slow stuff |
[03:34:00] | Beirdo: | OK |
[03:34:00] | Beirdo: | which means it should still work for people with OpenGL-challenged cards... |
[03:35:00] | pookSter: | yes, you are right Dagmar, that was PCIX I was looking at |
[03:35:00] | Beirdo: | which is good as I've never bothered to get it working on my ATI card :) |

[05:07:00] | a1fa: | i hate this |
[05:08:00] | a1fa: | you must have a keyboard and a mouse ready on every reboot |
[05:08:00] | a1fa: | No core pointer |
[05:08:00] | a1fa: | how do you fix this problem |
[05:08:00] | GreyFoxx: | edit your x config and set a core pointer ? |
[05:09:00] | a1fa: | lol i know |
[05:09:00] | a1fa: | but i dont have it plugged in |
[05:09:00] | a1fa: | it works when i plug it in |
[05:09:00] | a1fa: | but i dont want to beputting a mouse and a keyboard after every reset |
[05:09:00] | GreyFoxx: | So the PC wont boot without a keyboard attached ? |
[05:09:00] | GreyFoxx: | That's just a BIOS setting |
[05:09:00] | a1fa: | pc boots. but x wont start |
[05:09:00] | rasto: | my computer wont boot off hard driv e when no keyboard is in... thats even worse |
[05:09:00] | GreyFoxx: | ic |
[05:10:00] | a1fa: | xorg doesnt want to start w/o keyboard |
[05:10:00] | a1fa: | and a mouse |
[05:10:00] | GreyFoxx: | I've never had X complain about no keyboard or mouse on any system I've ever used |
[05:10:00] | a1fa: | so everytime i reboot i need to get a mouse |
[05:10:00] | Dagmar: | It's leet like that |
[05:10:00] | mstanisl_: | just don't reboot :) |
[05:10:00] | Dagmar: | You can get around the mouse issue by telling it you have a USB mouse on /dev/input/mice |

[05:11:00] | a1fa: | i did that |
[05:11:00] | a1fa: | but that didnt fix it |
[05:11:00] | a1fa: | <anholt> use the void driver for input? |
[05:12:00] | GreyFoxx: | a1fa: feel free to look at my 2 example X configs if you want. I don't know specifically what is causing your problem, but I never run into it |

[05:30:00] | a1fa: | omg.. this is killing me |
[05:30:00] | chaoticgeek: | I assume some/all know something about TV tuner cards |
[05:30:00] | GreyFoxx: | In general at least :) |
[05:30:00] | chaoticgeek: | which brand names would you suggest? I currently have a WinTV-Go but I'm gonna build a new box |
[05:31:00] | a1fa: | channls are back |
[05:31:00] | a1fa: | after 50 times of filling the database |
[05:31:00] | chaoticgeek: | and I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions because my knowladge is a little limited |
[05:31:00] | GreyFoxx: | For Standard analog cable the favourites are the WinTV-PVR cards. 150/250/350/500's |
[05:31:00] | GreyFoxx: | the 150's being the most economical |
[05:31:00] | chaoticgeek: | ok |
[05:31:00] | GreyFoxx: | They provide hardware compression lowering the required CPU |
[05:32:00] | chaoticgeek: | I dont think I'm looking at the card being economical |
[05:32:00] | chaoticgeek: | although it will not be just a pvr |
[05:32:00] | chaoticgeek: | I wish to do my email/Websurfing, and I play consoles more so I would like to hook up my console to it and I belive I have that Figured out |
[05:33:00] | GreyFoxx: | Ahh, well if you plan to play games through the capture card you will not find the PVR cards to be of much use |
[05:33:00] | chaoticgeek: | I am looking at this Small form factor box to kinda hide it away and possibly go wireless desktop. |
[05:33:00] | GreyFoxx: | they add a delay that will make playing a console useless |
[05:34:00] | chaoticgeek: | ... |
[05:34:00] | chaoticgeek: | See I'm in college and I dont want a large tv and I want a pvr |
[05:34:00] | GreyFoxx: | My personally recommendation to people wanting a "pvr" that can also be used to play console systems is to get a PVR card that is used for all recording, and pop a cheap BTTV framegrabber in and configure myth to launch another app for use when playing games |
[05:35:00] | chaoticgeek: | space for me is important |
[05:36:00] | chaoticgeek: | ok whats a BTTV? |
[05:36:00] | chaoticgeek: | nvm I'll go search |

[05:36:00] | GreyFoxx: | That's the driver used for most of the older capture cards that provide no hardware compression. |
[05:37:00] | GreyFoxx: | There is no real delay getting/displaying the data or changing channels with them since there is no compression or real buffering going on |
[05:37:00] | GreyFoxx: | Unless you use the card as a recording source in myth, which will compress the data in software :) |
[05:37:00] | chaoticgeek: | So when I pop my GC into my RCA vid in there is a lag? |
[05:38:00] | GreyFoxx: | If you pump the video through myth yes. If you have myth spawn an external app(say xawtv or tvtime) to grab the video and just display it with no buffering then there wouldn't be |
[05:39:00] | chaoticgeek: | oh |
[05:39:00] | chaoticgeek: | So I just have to get an extrnal program? or another card? |
[05:39:00] | GreyFoxx: | Which is why I suggest a pvr card for handling recordings, and a framegrabber that myth knows nothing about for playing games |
[05:40:00] | chaoticgeek: | ok I belive I follow you |
[05:40:00] | GreyFoxx: | You can add an entry to myths menu to launch the external app to use the framegrabber for games and you wont have to worry about any lag or about myth wanting to use it to record something |
[05:41:00] | chaoticgeek: | ok |
[05:41:00] | chaoticgeek: | seems easy enough |

[06:21:00] | feld: | one of the few times where i've considered rebooting to fix a linux problem... i bet bringing down lo and eth0 woulda done it too....... |
[06:21:00] | feld: | aight thx for listening lol |
[06:28:00] | SlicerDicer-: | hey feld |
[06:28:00] | SlicerDicer-: | rebooting myth sometimes really does help |
[06:29:00] | SlicerDicer-: | its one of those things hehe |

[06:29:00] | phoner: | poeple need a reboot like every 24 hours or so |
[06:30:00] | SlicerDicer-: | I rarely reboot my mythbox or any other for that matter |
[06:30:00] | SlicerDicer-: | unless its a kernel update or I make a major change |
[06:30:00] | phoner: | less you hack yourself, using coke |
[06:30:00] | SlicerDicer-: | such as when I switched from using nvidia for tvout to the pvr350 out |
[06:34:00] | phoner: | what hardware does like, cable company pvrs use |
[06:37:00] | xris: | phoner: dedicated stuff. |
[06:37:00] | awesome: | anyone using dvb in australia? what are the channel frequencies? |
[06:42:00] | linagee: | why does mythtv wait until recording stops to do user jobs? i'm using a pvr-250, there's plenty of CPU left to run jobs concurrently |
[06:44:00] | linagee: | phoner: what does coke do? keep you awake? |
[06:44:00] | phoner: | yea, don't need to sleep for weeks |
[06:45:00] | phoner: | well, need maybe, but don't have ot |
[06:49:00] | mstanisl_: | phoner: know a lot of people on coke? |
[06:49:00] | phoner: | haha, only a few |
[06:56:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | linagee: it doesn't wait except for jobs for the current recording in progress (since it doesn't queue the user jobs till the recording finishes) |
[06:56:00] | linagee: | Captain_Murdoch: that's silly. why doesn't it do user jobs while recording? |
[06:57:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | if the recording isn't finished, how can it run a job on that recording? |
[06:57:00] | linagee: | Captain_Murdoch: the only reason i need it to schedule my job is that i want to start transcoding as SOON as it's done recording, not when i get around to executing my script. |
[06:58:00] | linagee: | Captain_Murdoch: show A stops at 5pm. show B runs from 5pm to 6pm. user job for show A does not start until everything has stopped recording, after show B is done recording. |
[06:58:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | you must have realtime comm flagging on and the max user jobs set to 1. |
[07:00:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | it should run the jobs right away when the recording finishes unless you have a jobqueue time window setup or if you're hitting the max jobs limit you set. |
[07:25:00] | Dagmar: | We should be able to class recording jobs as separate from transcoding/markup jobs |
[07:26:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | what's the diff? |
[07:27:00] | Dagmar: | With a PVR card recording jobs basically take up about 4% CPU |
[07:27:00] | Dagmar: | ... so there's no real reason there can't be a niced transcode job going at hte same time |
[07:27:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | what is a "recording job"? |
[07:27:00] | Dagmar: | Instead it's assumed that recording jobs might conflict with other types of jobs |
[07:27:00] | Dagmar: | When it's recording a show |
[07:28:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | recordings have no effect on the jobqueue, they aren't run by the jobqueue, they actually schedule jobqueue jobs |
[07:28:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | you can transcode while recording (just not the file you're recording). :) |
[07:28:00] | Dagmar: | I was under the impression that they did, since I had to set the number of max jobs to 2 with my pvr-500 |
[07:29:00] | Dagmar: | More messy vagueness in the docs I guesss |
[07:31:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | if you use realtime flagging, that's a job. |
[07:31:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | so submit a patch (to the docs). :) |
[07:34:00] | Dagmar: | Captain_Murdoch: I think I'm probably doing a better job of rewriting it |
[07:34:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | rewriting what? the docs? |
[07:34:00] | Dagmar: | Captain_Murdoch: With any luck Dropline packages of everything will be complete and tested in another two weeks or so |
[07:36:00] | Dagmar: | Captain_Murdoch: Yeah, people are bound to ask dumb questions about how it all works so they can tinker with it, so I don't really have much choice about writing docs |
[07:36:00] | Dagmar: | I'm about 1/3-way through polishing and tightening the mysql package |

[09:37:00] | dzen_: | OT ? |
[09:37:00] | lotia: | http://rafb.net/paste/results/xbgvxn96.html |
[09:37:00] | lotia: | off topic |
[09:37:00] | lotia: | heres my script |
[09:37:00] | lotia: | having problems with the arguments passed to grep on line 16 |
[09:38:00] | Dagmar: | 404 |
[09:38:00] | lotia: | Dagmar: nothing there? |
[09:38:00] | dzen_: | mh |
[09:38:00] | Dagmar: | Try and pull up when you just pasted |
[09:38:00] | Dagmar: | s/when/what/ |
[09:39:00] | lotia: | yeah works for me |
[09:39:00] | Dagmar: | Clear your cache then. (shift-reload) |
[09:39:00] | lotia: | did that |
[09:39:00] | lotia: | anyway is there another pastebin you can recommend |
[09:39:00] | dzen_: | It worrs for me |
[09:39:00] | dzen_: | ^r^k |
[09:40:00] | lotia: | so the following command /data2/tools/chunklink/chunklink.pl -NtcfiHh /data2/corpora/treebank/PARSED/MRG/WSJ/00/WSJ_0094.MRG | /clair4/class/nlp/hw3/clpp.pl 3 | grep "VB CC VB " has no issues when run from the command line. |
[09:41:00] | lotia: | but $x and $y seem to be unhappy |
[09:42:00] | dzen_: | try to grep '$x$y' |
[09:43:00] | Dagmar: | Your for loop is cooked, dude. |
[09:43:00] | lotia: | Dagmar: whats up with it? |
[09:43:00] | Dagmar: | If you want to see what I'm talking about, in the inner loop just comment out what you have and add "echo $x" |
[09:43:00] | Dagmar: | Then run it. |
[09:43:00] | Dagmar: | Using those arguments to the for loop like that causes bash to collapse the extra whitespace. |
[09:44:00] | Dagmar: | So instead of for x in "DT JJ NN " "DT NN IN NN " "DT NNP NN " "DT CD NN " you're getting "DT JJ NN " |
[09:44:00] | lotia: | hmmm... |
[09:45:00] | lotia: | how do i fix that |
[09:46:00] | Dagmar: | Possibly store them in an array or two and just iterate through the array |
[09:46:00] | lotia: | should i put echo $x in quotes? |
[09:46:00] | Dagmar: | If I had the slightest idea what the heck you're actually trying to accomplish, I'm sure there would be an easier way to do it with awk or something |
[09:47:00] | Dagmar: | It won't make any difference, dude. |
[09:47:00] | Dagmar: | It's when the arguments are being read into x in the first place that the whitespace is being collapsed. |
[09:48:00] | Dagmar: | I suggest you Google for "Advanced Bash Scripting HOWTO" and you can probably find some alternate technique that will work. |
[09:49:00] | lotia: | Dagmar: spent most of last night poring through the abs, but to no avail |
[09:49:00] | dzen_: | lotia: |
[09:49:00] | dzen_: | dzen@tequila:/tmp$ x="toto" |
[09:49:00] | dzen_: | dzen@tequila:/tmp$ echo $x |
[09:49:00] | dzen_: | toto |
[09:49:00] | dzen_: | dzen@tequila:/tmp$ echo '$x' |
[09:49:00] | dzen_: | $x |
[09:49:00] | dzen_: | just consider this little exemple |
[09:49:00] | Dagmar: | lotia: Then store each of those things in a table, and iterate your loop over the array index |
[09:50:00] | Dagmar: | lotia: That way you won't wind up with the implicit (hidden) read into X collapsing your whitespace |
[09:50:00] | Dagmar: | ...or just use perl to begin with |
[09:50:00] | lotia: | so put $x in a table? |
[09:50:00] | Dagmar: | Umm... If I interpret what you're saying literally, then no. |
[09:51:00] | Dagmar: | Put those strings you're searching for into two tables.. |
[09:51:00] | Dagmar: | like $inner[0]='NNP '; and so on |
[09:51:00] | Dagmar: | then you can iterate from 0 to whatever for both the inner and the outer loop, and call the values with ${inner[0]}${outer[0]} |
[09:51:00] | lotia: | okay |
[09:52:00] | Dagmar: | When you do a for loop, the arguments actually get read as if you were feeding them to a pipe and using read() to get them back |

[12:18:00] | otwin: | Xenna: if you would live in a suburb of paris in an HLM and have those kids perspective you would go berserk as well |

[12:19:00] | Xenna: | I might, but that doesn't make it better does it? |
[12:19:00] | otwin: | but it has nothing to do with religion |
[12:19:00] | Xenna: | I agree that its a social problem |
[12:19:00] | Dagmar: | otwin: There's a *lot* of places in the US like that, which I suspect has something to do with CNN basically sitting on the story for over a week |
[12:20:00] | dzen_: | In the suburbs all teens are |
[12:20:00] | Xenna: | But if you import millions of people with a very different culture and make them a new underclass you're going to have problems |
[12:20:00] | dzen_: | getring borred |
[12:20:00] | Dagmar: | We just got done basically abandoning an entire city to floods and famine, and then shipped those digruntled people all over the US to make sure they can tell the most people about what happened. :/ |
[12:20:00] | Xenna: | If these millions are also relatively homogenous and of a different similar religion it will probably turn into a religious war |
[12:21:00] | Dagmar: | Xenna: Doubtful. |
[12:21:00] | Xenna: | But in the US religion doesn't play in these conflicts |
[12:21:00] | Dagmar: | Xenna: That is only true in the case where both parties view everything primarily from the standpoint of religion. |
[12:21:00] | Dagmar: | In the US we're mainly agnostics or non-practicing christians of various denominations. |
[12:21:00] | otwin: | Dagmar: it is not only a suburb with poor people – you have to see a suburb of a french city – it's unbelievable what they were thinking when planning that in the 60's |
[12:21:00] | Xenna: | You have many S-American immigrants but there's no real religious tension there |
[12:22:00] | Dagmar: | We view things based on social status, or if we're less educated, race or sex. |
[12:22:00] | Dagmar: | s'why you saw some people saying "George Bush doesn't care about black people" and others saying "George Bush doesn't care about poor people". |
[12:22:00] | Xenna: | Dagmar: You do, but what if you'd have 20 million muslim immigrants that *do* view things mainly on a religious basis |
[12:23:00] | Xenna: | That's the problem in Europe |
[12:23:00] | Dagmar: | Xenna: then you have a bunch of people who will heed a fatwa |
[12:23:00] | otwin: | Xenna: does your nick stand for xenophobe? |

[12:24:00] | Dagmar: | Even zealots are less likely to asses things from the standpoint of religion when the issue isn't one of religion. |
[12:24:00] | Xenna: | I'm actually primarily anti-religious |

[12:24:00] | Xenna: | That's a very idealist POV dDagmar, but the reality is different |
[12:24:00] | dzen_: | Xenna: keep in mind that a lot of personn can't survive without belivin' something |
[12:25:00] | Dagmar: | Xenna: Actually, no. I'm just used to guessing what crowds are going to do. |
[12:25:00] | Xenna: | At the University where I work, there are a lot of students from Maroccon origin, many girls |
[12:25:00] | Dagmar: | for example, I'll bet music genres like Punk are pretty big in the french suburbs |
[12:25:00] | laga: | Dagmar: don't think so. i believe it's more rap/hiphop. |
[12:25:00] | laga: | Dagmar: because those are ghettos |
[12:25:00] | Xenna: | Since 9/11 they've started wearing headscarfs in great numbers |
[12:26:00] | Xenna: | Wasn't that way before. |
[12:26:00] | dzen_: | Dagmar: false. there is a lot's of rap / r'n b |
[12:26:00] | Xenna: | Now why do you suppose that happened? |
[12:26:00] | otwin: | Xenna: you're talking bullshit |
[12:26:00] | Dagmar: | Because bad economic times bring out angry music. |
[12:26:00] | Xenna: | Because they're mixing up politics with religion perhaps? |
[12:26:00] | Dagmar: | Very simple.. |
[12:26:00] | juski: | it's a big mess, and the big problem is nobody's right, but everyone *thinks* they are |
[12:26:00] | Xenna: | otwin: Very nice! |
[12:27:00] | Dagmar: | that it's rap instead of punk is somewhat telling. Punk tends to be pissed off about almost everything. Rap tends to be pissed off about gov'ts specifically (aside from petty interpersonals) |
[12:27:00] | Xenna: | When I was punk we were just bored ;) |
[12:27:00] | Dagmar: | yeah, unhappy but no specific cause you could identify. |
[12:28:00] | Xenna: | Who isn't unhappy when he's 16? |
[12:28:00] | juski: | Rap is mostly ragging on about yo ho's and yo bling.. there's actually VERY little substance in most hip hop & rap these days. Public Enemy etc are long gone |
[12:28:00] | dzen_: | Dagmar: just take the exemple of an old rap singer "NTM" for "nike ta mere" (e.g. fuck your mother in french) and always sing "fuck the police" |
[12:28:00] | dzen_: | everywhere |
[12:28:00] | otwin: | Xenna: people don't wear headscarfs because of 9/11 – if the number has increased then because the french gvt. has forbidden to wear them in schools |
[12:29:00] | Dagmar: | dzen_: Bingo. |
[12:29:00] | Dagmar: | juski: There's a difference between what people listen to and what gets played on the radio and TV. |
[12:29:00] | Xenna: | otwin: I'm talking about my own university (in Holland) we don't have such laws |
[12:29:00] | otwin: | Xenna: ok – i was still talking of france |
[12:30:00] | juski: | Dagmar: LOL |
[12:30:00] | Dagmar: | juski: I'm serious. |
[12:30:00] | Xenna: | I'm assuming that France & Holland are somewhat similar, but I may be wrong |
[12:30:00] | laga: | Dagmar: dude. those people dont look like punks. |
[12:30:00] | laga: | Dagmar: they look like your typical ghetto rap kid :) |
[12:30:00] | Dagmar: | juski: At one time "alternative" music actually had more to do with the subject matter of the songs, rather than "bottom 100 of the top 500" that marketing execs slowly twisted it into. |
[12:31:00] | Xenna: | I've been in these suburbs a while ago and – believe it or not – I believe there were less scarfs than in Rotterdam :( |
[12:31:00] | Dagmar: | laga: Yeah, but there are subdivisions even in there. |
[12:31:00] | Dagmar: | Like a few years back I moved from Nashville to San Francisco. It was really hard at first figuring out who was packing and who wasn't, becasue I was used to being able to spot out who was into what from Nashville. |
[12:32:00] | Dagmar: | What it amounts to was that the dangerous gun toting types in Nashville just happened to dress like "Joe Average" in the bay area. |
[12:32:00] | Dagmar: | After about four months I got back into the hang of spotting whether someone was just extremely urban, or really a gun toting bastard or a crack dealer |
[12:33:00] | Xenna: | Dagmar: Gee, it's a jungle ou there ;) |
[12:33:00] | Dagmar: | On the "outside" it's real easy to make the mistake of thinking that an entire group of people is like only one fragment of that culture happens to be |
[12:33:00] | Dagmar: | Xenna: I made regular trips to Oakland. You gotta be on your toes over there. |
[12:34:00] | Xenna: | scary |
[12:35:00] | juski: | Come over to the UK.. see how long you nerves can take being dropped in the middle of some of our suburbs |

[12:37:00] | juski: | there's a lot of hatred about over here, and some of it ain't helped by the local authorities who claim 'equality for all' yet some people are forced to make more concessions than others. PC-ness gone mad is probably making it all worse :( |

[12:39:00] | juski: | ok.. maybe the recent riots in birmingham didn't make it onto US news then... |
[12:40:00] | Dagmar: | Really? They had some there? |

[12:40:00] | laga: | there have been riots in other parts of the world as well, but i forgot where :) |
[12:40:00] | Xenna: | between asians and black I believer |

[12:43:00] | Xenna: | No, in France they burned the cars in their own neighbourhoods |

[12:48:00] | juski: | easy for you to say Dagmar |
[12:48:00] | Xenna: | Mind you, there are lots of immigrants in Holland that *do* integrate well |
[12:48:00] | Dagmar: | juski: One thing I noticed is that there wasn't a whole lot of racism in San Fran. On any given bus there wouldn't be all that many people of any one color, so the odds were that any minority someone might want to pick on could outnumber you after the next two stops |
[12:48:00] | Xenna: | Indonesians, many Chinese, Surinam people |
[12:49:00] | Xenna: | Dagmar: Numbers are important |
[12:50:00] | Xenna: | If the numbers of one 'type' get to large they tend to start clustering together |

[13:05:00] | Xenna: | The legal uses are interesting enough to keep me occupied for a while |
[13:05:00] | Dagmar: | I'm one of the people who actually showed up for council meetings in my area to make very sure that things like MythTV weren't made illegal all around |
[13:05:00] | Xenna: | Thanks Dag |
[13:05:00] | Dagmar: | Believe me, the media's biatch lawyers would just LOVE an excuse to push for making digital recordings in general illegal |

[13:07:00] | Dagmar: | The RIAA did tho. Some lawyer from Pennsylvania. |
[13:07:00] | Dagmar: | it was pretty obvious he had bribed the committee chairman, Senator Person. |
[13:07:00] | Dagmar: | (thats really his name) |
[13:08:00] | Dagmar: | They were trying to make doing anything for yourself that your provider (of telephone, TV, or IP network) offers as a service, a *felony* |
[13:08:00] | laga: | idiots :) |
[13:08:00] | Dagmar: | Yeah, but it goes to show you just how grabby the lawyers are. |
[13:09:00] | Dagmar: | We gotta promote and develop really *compelling* legitimate uses of the technology, or lawsuits are likely to happen |
[13:10:00] | Xenna: | I don't know about the US, but there's lots of HD (harddisk) DVDrecorders selling in the stores |
[13:10:00] | Xenna: | you have the tivo and such |
[13:10:00] | Dagmar: | Hah |
[13:10:00] | Xenna: | were they going to outlaw all that? |
[13:10:00] | Dagmar: | Tivo and ReplayTV have been sued so many times it's not even funny. |
[13:10:00] | Dagmar: | ReplayTV is basically out of business as a result |
[13:10:00] | Xenna: | If PVR's are made illegal only Linux will have PVR's |
[13:11:00] | Xenna: | \Finally the killer-app! |
[13:11:00] | Dagmar: | Astonishingly enough, most ReplayTV units actually got shipped with the "Commercial Skip" feature _disabled_ because of the result of a lawsuit |
[13:11:00] | Dagmar: | The only way you'd get it back is when you subscribed to the listing service, it would download an update that was cunningly called a "Chapter Mark Search" |
[13:12:00] | Xenna: | I can imagine commercial companies are scared of commercial skipping features |

[13:13:00] | Dagmar: | If they wouldn't bombard us with such hideous messages they would find people less interested in skipping commercials. |
[13:13:00] | Xenna: | So Myth and other PC based stuff are the only option already |
[13:13:00] | Dagmar: | Instead, when a commercial comes on, they do their best to make you feel like your life is a mess because you don't have their product, and they jack the volume up by as much as 30% so you'll hear them if you wander into the next room |
[13:14:00] | Xenna: | Dagmar: I suspect commercials will start being embedded in the programming in even more obnoxious ways |
[13:14:00] | Xenna: | Like a little PIP commercial screen inside the regular programming |

[13:17:00] | Dagmar: | I figure it's only fair, since the big broadcasters are now using frame drop to squeeze in more commercial spots |
[13:18:00] | juski: | little fact: Sky TV in the UK have filed a patent to show viewers adverts while they skip commercials :( |
[13:18:00] | Xenna: | dagmar: Just drink a lot and go to the loo, that should do it. |
[13:18:00] | Dagmar: | Hopefully they will be greedy and fail to get anyone to licence it, and sue those who do |

[13:53:00] | bioart: | Yeah, as I'm looking at the page, I'm looking for the mythweb one |
[13:53:00] | Krazylegz: | The one that streams Internet radio/video to your Mythbox, or the one that streams your recordings over the Internet via vlc? |
[13:53:00] | Krazylegz: | http://mythstreamtv.sourceforge.net/ is what you want. |
[13:53:00] | bioart: | mythstreamtv it is... |
[13:53:00] | bioart: | thanks |

[13:57:00] | Xenna: | Good another videobox function I don't need anymore |
[13:57:00] | dzen_: | so |
[13:58:00] | dzen_: | maybe You don't need an X ? |
[13:58:00] | dzen_: | maybe you don't need a gsm ? |
[13:59:00] | Xenna: | maybe not but I was hoping Myth would replavce my videobox fully |

[14:00:00] | juski: | what is a 'videobox' ? |
[14:00:00] | Xenna: | http://videobox.sourceforge.net/ |
[14:01:00] | otwin: | IIRC you can get a linux server for the slimp device, no? |
[14:02:00] | Xenna: | Yes the slimserver is written in Perl |
[14:02:00] | Xenna: | I run it on my old Linux server |
[14:02:00] | Xenna: | I'm currently setting up the new one with mythtv as the media server |
[14:02:00] | Xenna: | I'll keep the slims stuff for th emusic |
[14:02:00] | otwin: | so what do you use videobox for? |
[14:03:00] | Xenna: | For watching downloaded movies and streaming video |
[14:03:00] | juski: | so the squeezebox thing just becomes a fancy IR receiver |
[14:03:00] | Xenna: | You got it |
[14:03:00] | otwin: | aah it does video too |
[14:03:00] | Xenna: | I plan to write a plugin for the slimserver to connect it with mythtv |
[14:03:00] | otwin: | that would be nice |
[14:04:00] | juski: | should be easy enough in theory |
[14:04:00] | Xenna: | So I can control my mythbox with the slimp/squeezebox remotes |
[14:04:00] | Xenna: | That's not difficult yto do I think |
[14:04:00] | juski: | but the squeezebox doesn't actually output video itself does it? |
[14:04:00] | otwin: | no |
[14:04:00] | Xenna: | I already did it (ages ago) with my fisrt freevo install |
[14:05:00] | Xenna: | juski: no, the video is generated by the videobox player on a windows PC |
[14:05:00] | Xenna: | the Video-out of the windows pC goes to the TV |
[14:05:00] | juski: | I remember seeing the slashdot article for that.. "**play back VIDEO from your squeezebox**".. 'alll' you need is a PC with TV output..err hang on a sec... |
[14:06:00] | Xenna: | Yep that was the article ;) |
[14:06:00] | Xenna: | The title is somewhat misleading |
[14:06:00] | juski: | somewhat... slahdot in fashion, yes |
[14:06:00] | Xenna: | But it sort of describes what it looks like |
[14:06:00] | Xenna: | Well, I made the headline so you can blame me ;) |

[14:33:00] | toom: | do you know what software he's using? |
[14:33:00] | Xenna: | he users videlan player and videolan client |
[14:34:00] | Xenna: | but there's also a myth plugin that should do this |
[14:34:00] | toom: | freeware. sounds good |
[14:35:00] | toom: | hm, i hope i've got some cpu power left from receiving digital signal rather than analog, which should be easier to handle |
[14:37:00] | toom: | 6 to 9 Mbit/s for a DVD. |
[14:37:00] | toom: | yeah :) |
[14:45:00] | toom: | you mean this for mythtv: http://home.kabelfoon.nl/~moongies/streamtuned.html ? |
[14:46:00] | Xenna: | yeah mythstream is the plugin i meant |
[14:46:00] | dev-: | watching tv on a wifi laptop works, as long as you're not useing b |
[14:46:00] | dev-: | all depends on your bitrates |
[14:46:00] | toom: | b? |
[14:47:00] | dev-: | i use 6500/8000 and cant stream on 802.11b |
[14:47:00] | GreyFoxx: | mythstream and mythstreamtv are two different plugins |

[14:47:00] | toom: | which is the 'good' one? |
[14:47:00] | dev-: | upgraded to g and tv works fine |
[14:48:00] | dev-: | a/g can handle it |
[14:48:00] | GreyFoxx: | They have different purposes |
[14:48:00] | GreyFoxx: | mythstream is for streaming net based audio |

[14:49:00] | dev-: | thats all |
[14:49:00] | dev-: | hehe |
[14:49:00] | GreyFoxx: | Not that I'm aware of. I stream livetv manually with vlc and ashellscrip + channel changing app |
[14:49:00] | toom: | so i need the videolan stuff anyway, right? |
[14:49:00] | dev-: | mythstreamtv tells you the requirrements (depends) yeah, you'll need vlc |
[14:49:00] | GreyFoxx: | If you want mythstreamtv you do |
[14:49:00] | dev-: | you'll need it compiled with httpd support etc, few other things you'll need |
[14:49:00] | dev-: | its all in the docs |
[14:50:00] | toom: | excellent, going to be an exciting weekend ;) |
[14:50:00] | dev-: | hah the readme isnt that big! |
[14:50:00] | dev-: | like a page ;) |

[14:50:00] | dev-: | oh oh |
[14:50:00] | dev-: | nice. |

[14:51:00] | dev-: | in that case, yeah, it will be an exciting weekend :) |
[14:51:00] | GreyFoxx: | I used mythstreamtv for a couple weeks, but eventually I just started using a couple perl script wrappers for launching it with livetv , recordings or other compressed (xvid) content |
[14:51:00] | dev-: | what os are you going to use? |
[14:51:00] | toom: | since the harddrive arrives as well, there's not even an operating system setup :) |
[14:51:00] | toom: | it's going to be gentoo, i guess |
[14:51:00] | toom: | (most pain) |
[14:51:00] | GreyFoxx: | I stream it to my desktop at work, and setup a vlc instance there to bounc it off to coworkers in the office |
[14:51:00] | dev-: | works well on gentoo |
[14:51:00] | dev-: | GreyFoxx: i did the same exact thing |
[14:51:00] | dev-: | hehe |
[14:52:00] | GreyFoxx: | 1 stream in feeding 10+ people heh |
[14:52:00] | dev-: | though it was annoying in the same room, with it being slightly out of sync on each |
[14:52:00] | toom: | GreyFoxx: i'll have that in mind |
[14:52:00] | dev-: | we could never get it working right, tried changing prebuffer sizes etc, but audio would still be slightly out of sync. like the old row-row-row-your-boat thing |
[14:52:00] | GreyFoxx: | dev-: My main rule was that anyone listening must either be in their own closed office or use a headset for just that reason |

[14:54:00] | GreyFoxx: | I update to SVN every couple days so my process uptime is rarely more than a week :) |
[14:54:00] | dev-: | i use an xp3200 as my backened, vlc takes up 100% cpu and livetv will skip if i decide to watch while streaming (living room is mythbackend/frontend same box) |
[14:54:00] | ivor: | BTW, anyone seen geckofiend recently? is he on vacation? |
[14:55:00] | dev-: | GreyFoxx: hehe werd |
[14:55:00] | dev-: | i was real curious about how long myth would stay up for, reliability. i kept having to do hardware swaps, then moved it, then blah blah. this is the longest ive had it online. |
[14:55:00] | dev-: | mythfrontend gets bloated though |
[14:55:00] | dev-: | its got some kind of leak |
[14:55:00] | GreyFoxx: | The backend I stream from is a xp2500, but I don't have any problems playing streams to my frontends while it's happenning |
[14:55:00] | dev-: | heh |
[14:55:00] | toom: | i hope i can get more power out of that thing by building my own packages but it'll probably not make a huge difference.. |
[14:56:00] | dev-: | if you split the backend/frontend you'll get alot more bang for your buck |
[14:56:00] | dev-: | but then thats 2 boxes |
[14:57:00] | dev-: | ive got 1 frontendonly, 1 frontend/slavebackend, 1 frontend/masterbackend |
[14:57:00] | dev-: | 3 tuners total, 2 in master backend, 1 in slavebackend |
[14:57:00] | toom: | i'm confused |
[14:58:00] | dev-: | masterbackened is xp3200, 512meg ddr400, 300gig sata, 2 pvr250's, do on-the-fly-commercial-flagging on all |
[14:58:00] | dev-: | works well |
[14:58:00] | GreyFoxx: | toom: By what ? |
[14:59:00] | toom: | all that back and frontends |
[14:59:00] | dev-: | toom: mythtv is broken in mythbackened and mythfrontend |
[14:59:00] | GreyFoxx: | the backend process talks to the capture cards and handles recording/scheduling |
[14:59:00] | dev-: | +up into |
[14:59:00] | toom: | i couldn't even tell how may of these i am going to have :) |
[14:59:00] | GreyFoxx: | the frontend streams the recording from the backend |
[14:59:00] | dev-: | you can run both on the same machine, just requires a more powerful machine |
[14:59:00] | GreyFoxx: | Most people have a single frontend/backend box. Some split it out for various reasons |

[15:00:00] | GreyFoxx: | What kind of capture card ? |

[15:01:00] | Sungrazer: | 'lo |
[15:01:00] | GreyFoxx: | that 800 will never play hdtv |
[15:01:00] | otwin: | what upload speeds do you guys have – i could not forward a serious to my work |
[15:01:00] | dev-: | athlon800 is going to be too slow |
[15:01:00] | otwin: | *stream to my work |
[15:01:00] | dev-: | otwin: optonline 10mbit/1mbit |
[15:01:00] | GreyFoxx: | You could capture, but no way would you play it ON that box |
[15:01:00] | toom: | well, it doesn't necessarily need to do hdtv, right? |
[15:01:00] | GreyFoxx: | I have 10MB down, 1.5MB up |
[15:01:00] | otwin: | wow |
[15:01:00] | Sungrazer: | (anyone got any experience with Hauppage Nexus-S cards) |
[15:02:00] | otwin: | 1mbit/128k :-( – our regulator does not do his job |
[15:02:00] | Sungrazer: | It's a dvb-s |
[15:03:00] | GreyFoxx: | toom: I don't know about the capabilities of that card, but if you mean analog cable you need to find out if that card does hardware compression and is supported under linux. |
[15:03:00] | toom: | it is supported |
[15:03:00] | toom: | and it's a terrestric dvb |
[15:03:00] | toom: | not cable |
[15:04:00] | dev-: | toom: is it supported in myth? |
[15:04:00] | dev-: | i still havent made the leap to hdtv |
[15:04:00] | GreyFoxx: | Ok, so the DVB stream should already be a compressed mpeg2 stream |
[15:04:00] | dev-: | 9gig/hour kills me |
[15:04:00] | toom: | don't know |
[15:04:00] | toom: | i thought, myth supports everything that the kernel can handle |
[15:04:00] | toom: | somehow.. |
[15:05:00] | GreyFoxx: | If you don't have to use your CPU for compressing the incoming stream the 800 might be fine. But it's on the lower end of the bubble |
[15:05:00] | GreyFoxx: | If it's just a dvb card it should be usable |
[15:05:00] | dev-: | with an 800, you'll miss out on some features |
[15:05:00] | dev-: | commercial flagging, you'll have trouble with |

[15:06:00] | dev-: | strict enabled and such |
[15:06:00] | GreyFoxx: | I've had too many times where commflagging misidentified stuff as a commerical and I had to seek arund to find the real end of the commercial |
[15:06:00] | GreyFoxx: | It's not worth it to me |
[15:07:00] | GreyFoxx: | But I stopped using it a long time ago, so I don't doubt it's improved in accuracy |

[15:07:00] | dev-: | and shes an idiot |
[15:07:00] | Beirdo: | it works pretty well for me except on a few Law & Order it still buggers |

[15:07:00] | dev-: | ... heh |
[15:07:00] | toom: | lol |
[15:07:00] | GreyFoxx: | I just just 3 minutes when commericals start and I am almost always right at where ythe show starts |
[15:08:00] | dev-: | GreyFoxx: dont know when the last time you tried commflagging was, but i did notice from .17 to .18 it 'got better' |
[15:08:00] | GreyFoxx: | like .15 or so |
[15:08:00] | GreyFoxx: | heh |
[15:08:00] | dev-: | you do need to enable strict and stuff though. by default its not on |
[15:08:00] | dev-: | you outa try it, for shits and giggles, probably find it works alot better :0 |
[15:08:00] | dev-: | :) |
[15:09:00] | GreyFoxx: | I keep thinking about it, but I don't care enough about it to do it hehe |
[15:09:00] | GreyFoxx: | maybe one of these days :) |
[15:09:00] | dev-: | hehe i hear ya |
[15:09:00] | toom: | i'll try whatever possible |
[15:09:00] | dev-: | toom: commflagging takes up some resources |
[15:10:00] | toom: | do scripts exist that do the flagging after recording is finished/ |
[15:10:00] | toom: | that'll be ok |
[15:10:00] | dev-: | with an athlon800 id think you could do 1 stream and commflagging while its recording, but you wouldnt be able to watch it. you would have to let it commflag after the show finishes recording |
[15:10:00] | toom: | since i'm not going to record 24/7 |
[15:10:00] | dev-: | but even then, you may not be able to watch tv on it. or at least, livetv |
[15:11:00] | Sungrazer: | if I may interrupt again... :-) anyone tried to build a mythtv box with the fanless VIA Mini ITX motherboards? |
[15:11:00] | dev-: | only 1 dude i know |

[15:12:00] | dev-: | nah, ive seen it, its quick |
[15:12:00] | dev-: | uses it for his car pc |
[15:12:00] | dev-: | compiling myth, is another story |
[15:12:00] | toom: | car pc.. |
[15:12:00] | Sungrazer: | hehe – use the knoopmyth thingy |
[15:13:00] | Sungrazer: | knoppmyth even |
[15:13:00] | dev-: | nah, he wanted to store recordings and music |

[15:13:00] | Sungrazer: | oww – in a car? |
[15:13:00] | dev-: | here, check out his writeup |
[15:13:00] | Sungrazer: | rather sensitive to temperature shits |
[15:13:00] | dev-: | https://www.timekiller.org/carpc/ |
[15:13:00] | dev-: | will answer all your questions |
[15:13:00] | dev-: | Sungrazer: thats why its under the seat not in the trunk :) |
[15:13:00] | Sungrazer: | cool – thanks |
[15:13:00] | Sungrazer: | hehe |
[15:14:00] | dev-: | over his cell phone service with verizon, he watches livetv in his car too |
[15:14:00] | dev-: | heh |
[15:15:00] | Sungrazer: | I got a Hauppage PVR-350 and thinking about getting a Hauppage nexus-s card for digital sattelite dish as well – not so sure how it will perform with encrypted services though |

[15:15:00] | Sungrazer: | hence my question about the via cards to be able to have a "silent" livingroom setup |
[15:16:00] | Sungrazer: | both cards does onboard mpeg encode/decode so the tax on the motherboard / cpu shouldn't be too high |
[15:16:00] | dev-: | dunno where you'd find a case to cool those 2 cards with no fans |
[15:16:00] | dev-: | pvr's get smokin hot |

[15:16:00] | Sungrazer: | really? Hmm – I didn't realise that |
[15:16:00] | dev-: | fanless frontend is entirely possible. fanless backened/frontend, i wouldnt do it. you'll be replacing cards in a couple months |
[15:17:00] | Sungrazer: | sounds expensive in the long run. :-D |
[15:17:00] | dev-: | it is, ive been through the lesson |
[15:17:00] | Sungrazer: | dang, I should be careful with the setup I have now then – it doesn't have a chassis fan at all |

[15:17:00] | dev-: | had 2 pvr250's too close to each other, in 2 pcislots right next to eatch other on a miniatx board. even had an 80mm intake fan in front of them. still burned 2 out before i realised why |
[15:18:00] | Sungrazer: | whoops! |
[15:18:00] | Sungrazer: | Isn't possible to glue a heatsink on them with some silverpaste? |
[15:18:00] | dev-: | neither of them just completely stopped working. all of a sudden every recording done on cardx had artifacts and mpeg errors and fill the backendlog up with errors and glitches |
[15:19:00] | dev-: | Sungrazer: in a mini-itx case i doubt you have any room for any sourt of heatsink. in my mini-atx case they cable tuner was literally mm away from the bottom of the other card |
[15:19:00] | Sungrazer: | true |
[15:19:00] | Xenna: | It's best to put the mediaserver in a different room from the tv |
[15:19:00] | Xenna: | imho |
[15:19:00] | Sungrazer: | I'd better check the temperature on my pvr card as soon as I get home – been running for a week 24/7 now |
[15:20:00] | bjohnson (n=bjohnson@jecinc.tor.istop.com) has joined #mythtv-users | |
[15:20:00] | dev-: | you want silent running, the way to do it is master backened in the computer room, all cable feeds into that, small epia fanless mini-itx mythfrontends scattered through the house with 802.11g |
[15:20:00] | Xenna: | I'm off to buy a pvr 500 now :) |
[15:20:00] | Sungrazer: | yeah, I could put one up on the attic – would be nice and cool – in the winter. Scorching in the summer. :S |
[15:20:00] | Sungrazer: | dev: agreed. |

[15:21:00] | dev-: | or you could go with really big fans |
[15:21:00] | Sungrazer: | If I only had a computer room.... ;-) |
[15:21:00] | dev-: | i did that with the box in the bedroom. its got a 100mm fan on it, cpu fan, and thats it |
[15:22:00] | dev-: | only one you hear is the cpu fan, 80mm |
[15:22:00] | dev-: | very faintly |
[15:22:00] | dev-: | of course, thats no mini-atx case |
[15:22:00] | Sungrazer: | hm – my wife got good hearing. |
[15:22:00] | dev-: | thats a midtower on its side behind the tv stand hehe |
[15:22:00] | Sungrazer: | and I am afraid even a 80mm fan would be too low WAF |
[15:22:00] | dev-: | yeah might be |
[15:22:00] | dev-: | me and the woman like to sleep with a fan on |
[15:23:00] | dev-: | so its kind of a null issue |
[15:23:00] | dev-: | heh |
[15:23:00] | Sungrazer: | hehe |
[15:30:00] | jasta: | i used to have such a problem w/ this with my ex. |
[15:31:00] | jasta: | i couldn't sleep w/o a quiet humm from a fan |
[15:31:00] | jasta: | and she couldn't stand it. |
[15:31:00] | jasta: | i had to turn it off everytime she slept over |
[15:31:00] | jasta: | and i'd toss and turn all night |
[15:31:00] | Sungrazer: | hehe – humans are a creature of habits that's for sure |
[15:31:00] | jasta: | used to always just give up and go play quake3 on mute. |
[15:31:00] | zoi: | ..if you snoar loud enough you don't even hear the fans |
[15:32:00] | jasta: | (on another computer) |
[15:32:00] | Beirdo: | hmmm |
[15:32:00] | jasta: | honestly, i would wake up more abruptly to the sound of my computers turning off than i would to my alarm at its maximum volume. |
[15:32:00] | Sungrazer: | Muaha |
[15:32:00] | Beirdo: | so tonight maybe I should finally migrate inn |
[15:33:00] | Beirdo: | just did backup migration last night |
[15:33:00] | Beirdo: | :) |
[15:33:00] | jasta: | so naturally, power outages sucked. i'd wake up startled, only to realize that there's nothing to do but sleep. |
[15:34:00] | dev-: | when i first moved out of my parents house, i couldnt sleep |
[15:34:00] | dev-: | i actually had a "computer room" in my own place, whereas i had 3 pcs running in my bedroom at home |
[15:34:00] | dev-: | the sound of the silence was deafening |
[15:34:00] | dev-: | is why i sleep with a fan on heh |
[15:34:00] | dev-: | ;/ |
[15:35:00] | Krazylegz: | I have an alarm that to me has the most annoying beep I have ever heard. I always get up immediately and turn it off. |
[15:36:00] | Beirdo: | I'd smash it real quick |
[15:36:00] | Beirdo: | dev-: I have 8 computers on 24/7... in a bachelor suite |
[15:36:00] | Beirdo: | and it's about as loud as a "normal" PC |
[15:37:00] | dev-: | yeah as long as they have big fans in them its not that bad |
[15:37:00] | Beirdo: | most are Antec Sonata |
[15:37:00] | Sungrazer: | The main system I have now is an old compaq case where I've swapped the motherboard. It has 4 fans plus cpu and psu fan. I can hear it on the second floor over the noise of the tv |
[15:37:00] | Beirdo: | which have 120mm fans |
[15:37:00] | Krazylegz: | I worry more that other people can't sleep if I have a computer in the room. |
[15:37:00] | Beirdo: | well, I don't have that issue |
[15:37:00] | Sungrazer: | oh, and the gpu fan is bitching loud. |
[15:38:00] | Beirdo: | by the time I'm living with someone, the computers will be in a different room |
[15:38:00] | Sungrazer: | I think I will toss my computers on the attic of the garasje pretty soon and make a server room there. :-D |
[15:38:00] | Sungrazer: | garage, even |
[15:38:00] | Beirdo: | they will overheat |
[15:38:00] | Beirdo: | unless you aircondition the attic :) |
[15:38:00] | toom: | watercooling |
[15:39:00] | Sungrazer: | nah – heard of airconditioning? |
[15:39:00] | Sungrazer: | hehe |
[15:39:00] | Krazylegz: | Beirdo lives in Canada, so no, he hasn't. |
[15:39:00] | Beirdo: | how many people have AC in the garage attic? |
[15:39:00] | toom: | save money, warm up shower water by cooling your pcs |
[15:39:00] | Beirdo: | most people don't even AC the garage |
[15:39:00] | Sungrazer: | uhhhhhm :-D |
[15:39:00] | Sungrazer: | toom: Actually I am doing that already – indirectly |
[15:40:00] | Beirdo: | but if you wanna AC the garage attic, cool |
[15:40:00] | toom: | kickt out the radiator? :) |
[15:40:00] | Sungrazer: | Beirdo: naah |
[15:40:00] | Sungrazer: | toom: got a heatpump that is connected to the house mechanical ventilation |
[15:40:00] | Beirdo: | my apartment has difficulties being below 76F in the winter without the sliding door open |
[15:40:00] | Beirdo: | and I turn off the heat |
[15:40:00] | Sungrazer: | and also have a outside collector dug down in the ground |
[15:41:00] | Sungrazer: | temperature range where I live is from around -30 C in the winter to 40 C in the summer |
[15:41:00] | toom: | eek |
[15:42:00] | Sungrazer: | this summer I measured 65 degrees on the attic of the house. Not ideal. |
[15:42:00] | Sungrazer: | in the attic / on the attic? |
[15:42:00] | Sungrazer: | you get the idea. :-D |
[15:43:00] | toom: | sounds like sauna :) |
[15:43:00] | Sungrazer: | It was extremely hot – I was installing the control system for the electrical shutters for the roof windows in the livingroom |
[15:44:00] | Sungrazer: | when I was finished I drank 2 liters of water, and still pissed bright yellow. :-D |
[15:44:00] | toom: | for some reason i get the impression that i'm surrounded by geeks :) |

[15:45:00] | toom: | well.. ' i've got 8 pcs in one room' or 'i've got my pc cooling connected to the house air conditioning' ... i can't decide which one is weirder 'electrical shutters for roof windows' is probably just normal :) |

[19:46:00] | MrSpiffy: | can also use an integer for supported modes |
[19:46:00] | Chutt: | <gasp>, really? |
[19:46:00] | MrSpiffy: | yeah |
[19:46:00] | MrSpiffy: | gasp |
[19:46:00] | MrSpiffy: | really |
[19:46:00] | MrSpiffy: | sarcastic bastard |
[19:46:00] | Chutt: | of course, that doesn't change anything. |
[19:46:00] | GreyFoxx: | Is your mode listed by the xrandr command ? |
[19:47:00] | Chutt: | since the mode you've selected still isn't listed there |
[19:47:00] | MrSpiffy: | GreyFoxx, no – I am not using a standard gui size which is what is being used for the xrandr command in myth which makes little or no sense to me |
[19:47:00] | MrSpiffy: | nor is the X resolution available to mythtv |
[19:47:00] | MrSpiffy: | just what is set |
[19:48:00] | GreyFoxx: | MrSpiffy: I wasn't sure if xrandr has a set list of sizes or if it pulled in your modelines from your X config |
[19:48:00] | MrSpiffy: | nor is there code in myth to scale a custom gui size to a standard mode before passing it to xrandr |
[19:48:00] | Chutt: | you know that for a fact? |
[19:48:00] | MrSpiffy: | GreyFoxx, neither for myth – it reads the settings database and passes -x -y from whatever it is set to |
[19:49:00] | MeneMMateo: | May add to my previous question, that normal tv does not suffer from the by PVR350 recorder grey lines? |
[19:49:00] | MrSpiffy: | must be Chutt – your solution is to use a standard resolution and not the custom size feature in myth. therefore it must be a limitation and not a bug |
[19:49:00] | GreyFoxx: | MeneMMateo: Grey lines? Vertical "noise" bars or actual grey lines? |
[19:50:00] | Chutt: | so, you're stating what's in the source without having any idea whatsoever of what's actually there? |
[19:50:00] | MrSpiffy: | so, big warning – If you do not use a standard resolution you will not be able to see the guide. |
[19:50:00] | MrSpiffy: | it will display in whatever tv playback is set to |
[19:50:00] | MeneMMateo: | No they are horizontal grey lines, only appear when recording TV. |
[19:50:00] | MrSpiffy: | but then again, I am an "idiot" for mentioning it |
[19:51:00] | MeneMMateo: | About 30 of them, the whoke picture is a tad "washed" |
[19:51:00] | MeneMMateo: | ivtvfbctl /dev/fb1 -alpha -on -globalalpha -nolocalalpha did not help here. |
[19:52:00] | GreyFoxx: | MeneMMateo: Using the 350's output? Have you looked at one of the recordings on either another machine or a different output ? |
[19:52:00] | Chutt: | mrspiffy, no, you're an idiot because of your attitude. |
[19:52:00] | Beirdo: | heh |
[19:52:00] | MrSpiffy: | yeah chut. your attitude is always positive and helpful |
[19:52:00] | MrSpiffy: | my mistake |
[19:53:00] | Chutt: | i am, generally. |
[19:53:00] | MeneMMateo: | Yes, the lines are in the actual recording. When I play a DVD over the tv out, there are no such lines. When I play a recoding on my Laptop screen the lines are also visible. |
[19:53:00] | Chutt: | unless people act like idiots |
[19:53:00] | MrSpiffy: | no bug, no problem, no work around. I never mentioned it |

[20:00:00] | GreyFoxx: | Is there some setting somewhere to keep the OSD constrained to the same GuiX/Y that you have defined for the menus ? |
[20:00:00] | Chutt: | naw |
[20:00:00] | Chutt: | that's separate. |
[20:00:00] | GreyFoxx: | k |
[20:01:00] | GreyFoxx: | I have my GuiX/Y set to less than full screen to keep the menu within my visible area but the OSD goes past the edges. Wasn't sure if there was a way to keep them consistant |

[20:05:00] | pridkett: | is there an easy way to disable an encoder without deleting it?

Then, when I want to record something in HD, I could disable the sdtv and enable the cable box. Doesn't need to be any way fancy. |
[20:06:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | maybe try using priorities on the cards |

[22:57:00] | GreyFoxx: | ahhh |
[22:57:00] | Chutt: | i've never bothered looking at it before, either. |
[22:58:00] | pridkett: | Hey Chutt, so I'm working on a simple patch to disable a tuner temporarily and reenable another, and was thinking that probably the easiset way to do this from a scheduling perspective is to just put a dummy job in the schedule at really high priority for that card, but when the time comes not have it record anything. Sound okay |
[22:58:00] | pridkett: | ? |
[22:58:00] | Chutt: | possibly |
[22:59:00] | Chutt: | might be easier to just have the scheduler disable the card |
[22:59:00] | Chutt: | ie., not take it into consideration |
[23:00:00] | pridkett: | my impression was if the scheduler disabled the card, then it would be disabled for the entire period that it's scheduling for |
[23:00:00] | Chutt: | wouldn't be hard to kick off a reschedule whenever that changed. |
[23:00:00] | pridkett: | for example, if I'm only recording from the cable box in hd from 9–10pm, I only need my PVR-250 disabled from 9–10pm |
[23:00:00] | Chutt: | right |
[23:02:00] | pridkett: | if I disable the card completely in the scheduler, then during the time it's disabled, you'll get all sorts of weird scheduling issues I would imagine. For example, saying a bunch of shows couldn't be recorded. Once the tuner is back online, things will be fine, I guess. |
[23:02:00] | pridkett: | That seems easier for right now too. Thanks for the pointer. |
[23:03:00] | GeekZoid: | hi |
[23:03:00] | GeekZoid: | Has anyone sucessfully burned shows using mythtv syn version? |
[23:03:00] | GeekZoid: | it saves it as a .mpg file but when i run dvdauthor i get a bunch ofskipping errors |
[23:04:00] | GeekZoid: | the examples on the web site show *.m2v and *.nuv |
[23:04:00] | GeekZoid: | and none of those files exist there |
[23:04:00] | Chutt: | don't ping the channel. |
[23:05:00] | GeekZoid: | oh sorry. I just wanted to see if my server was messed |
[23:05:00] | GeekZoid: | or my client |
[23:05:00] | Chutt: | so ping yourself. |
[23:05:00] | Chutt: | oh noes! nobody answered right away! i must be lagged! |

[23:26:00] | a1fa: | all my broadcast channels are there |
[23:26:00] | a1fa: | and none from cable |
[23:26:00] | baskew: | quiet, and is perfect for bedrooms |
[23:26:00] | CanadaBoy: | baskew: the emulator with with the controller? |
[23:26:00] | a1fa: | but i dont get any cable channels.. there is this snow instead of channel |
[23:27:00] | a1fa: | zap2it.com provided the good information.. all the channels i supposed to get are mapped |
[23:27:00] | baskew: | CanadaBoy: mmm what are you asking? |
[23:27:00] | a1fa: | but when i try to view them |
[23:27:00] | a1fa: | they are snow |
[23:27:00] | a1fa: | all basic channels are there tho |
[23:27:00] | CanadaBoy: | baskew: if mythtgames (i.e. a snens/nes emulator) works with an xbox controller? |
[23:27:00] | mofu: | you have antenna and cable connected? |
[23:28:00] | a1fa: | cable |
[23:28:00] | a1fa: | as of this morning |
[23:28:00] | a1fa: | mofu: i changed my zap2it.com settings and redownloaded.. mythtv mapped all channels |
[23:28:00] | baskew: | oooh...hmm dunno about that, i had to connect a keyboard to the xbox in order to setup myth, i am running xebian |
[23:28:00] | mofu: | did you delete you channels in Mythtv-setup? |
[23:29:00] | CanadaBoy: | baskew: awe ok ... what about uptime issues .. ie how long do you leave the frontend running? |
[23:29:00] | baskew: | CanadaBoy: i leave it on for days at a time |
[23:29:00] | ** baskew kinda worry if that is good thing ** | |
[23:29:00] | a1fa: | yes.. i deleted the old ones |
[23:29:00] | a1fa: | and got new ones |
[23:29:00] | CanadaBoy: | baskew: sweet thanks ... i think i will definatly do it ... |
[23:29:00] | a1fa: | the channels are all there, but when I view |
[23:30:00] | a1fa: | > 12 are snow |
[23:30:00] | baskew: | CanadaBoy: np |
[23:30:00] | mofu: | did you select cable at the correct places? probably not |
[23:31:00] | mofu: | using the wrong freqency table, go back through setup |
[23:31:00] | a1fa: | usa-cable? |
[23:31:00] | a1fa: | i think i put it at default |
[23:31:00] | mofu: | i don't know, are you in the US? |
[23:32:00] | a1fa: | yes |
[23:33:00] | mofu: | I think there is an alternate cable freq table, or worst case your cable company has migrated almost everything to Digital |
[23:33:00] | mofu: | you get these snowy stations on a cable ready TV? |
[23:33:00] | baskew: | us-cable-hfb |
[23:33:00] | a1fa: | yes i do |

[23:43:00] | iam1e3t: | im guessing so |

[23:45:00] | iam1e3t: | im just looking for basic functionality: NTFS support, mp3, cd, DivX files, dvd playing..with the almost instant-on speed similair to the hp quickplay |

[23:48:00] | chaoticgeek: | ahhh |
[23:48:00] | chaoticgeek: | so there is |

[23:53:00] | jnunez: | iam1e3t: instanton is the name of the bios |
[23:53:00] | mofu: | you can tune just about any distro, arguably you need to compile EVERYTHING from source for you system, and your system only, NO EXTRAS! |

[23:54:00] | chaoticgeek: | ya I'm sure we all will get right on that |
[23:54:00] | mofu: | in the end it will probably be easiest on whatever you prefer |
[23:54:00] | jnunez: | i think you can buy a motherboard with it |
[23:54:00] | chaoticgeek: | ya |
[23:54:00] | iam1e3t: | but, quickplay requires a partition |
[23:55:00] | iam1e3t: | and it posts first, almost like it booted really quickly into linux rather into windows |
[23:55:00] | jnunez: | yup so does instant on... i think hp licensed it from intervideo |
[23:55:00] | iam1e3t: | so what distro (i need NTFS Support) should i look into for the fastest boot time |
[23:55:00] | mofu: | you could dual boot, CF the quick stuff, with another partion for full system. |
[23:56:00] | iam1e3t: | and possible network support (i know thats kinda pushing it) |
[23:56:00] | mofu: | iam1e3t: NTFS-read-only OK?? |
[23:56:00] | iam1e3t: | ok |
[23:56:00] | iam1e3t: | will probably work |
[23:56:00] | iam1e3t: | im thinking about doing this with my laptop (80gb drive) |
