[00:01:00] drdaz: yeah I guess.. I tried running a yum update just now, but nothing is marked for update
[00:01:00] drdaz: so..

[00:01:00] dtm: does anyone here use pvrusb2 with mythtv? i cna't get mythtv 0.18.1 to properly change the bitrate.
[00:02:00] flithm: hey all... anyone having problems with 0.19 and livetv? specifically when the program you're currently watching ends? my mythfrontend just hung up and is eating 100% cpu

[00:02:00] nasa: Is the frontend eating 100% or X?
[00:03:00] nuonguy: drdaz: What could be different about my install ?
[00:03:00] flithm: let me check
[00:03:00] flithm: it's mythfrontend... X is eating like 3%
[00:03:00] drdaz: nuonguy: I really dont know.. what did Axel say?
[00:03:00] Agrajag-: yeah flithm a fair few people are having that problem, check the mailing lists
[00:04:00] nasa: flithm: just seeing if it was similar to a prob I am having. Mines is the other way around.
[00:04:00] flithm: I was able to escape out of the hang
[00:04:00] flithm: and the frontend appears to be fine now
[00:05:00] flithm: it seems to have saved the recording okay too
[00:05:00] flithm: hrmf
[00:05:00] nuonguy: drdaz: He wanted to know whether I was hand picking packages or whether I'd built (parts of) myth myself, neither of which is true
[00:05:00] drdaz: ok
[00:05:00] drdaz: it is very very odd..
[00:05:00] flithm: nasa, too bad about 0.19... it's seems to much more stable in every other way...
[00:06:00] nasa: flithm: I can't say — within a couple of minutes of switching between different options, I have X at 99% cpu usage and the frontend is frozen.
[00:07:00] drdaz: you might want to try yum removing the offending binaries
[00:07:00] drdaz: and installing again from only atrpms
[00:08:00] nuonguy: I thought that's what I'd done
[00:08:00] nuonguy: with --disablerepo=...
[00:08:00] flithm: nasa, hmmm... that's no good... did you try compiling without opengl? it seems to have helped for me
[00:08:00] drdaz: yes but... did u remove the 'wrong' binaries first?
[00:08:00] drdaz: something went wrong somewhere... there is a version mismatch
[00:09:00] drdaz: you need to remove the ones that dont correspond to the atrpms release
[00:09:00] drdaz: and reinstall them

[00:10:00] flithm: nasa, do you have an nvidia card and 8000+ series driver?
[00:10:00] nasa: flitm: no, I have an old ati 8500DV
[00:10:00] flithm: nasa, hrmm... maybe that won't matter for you then. I know there's some problems with nvidia cards, the latest driver, and opengl in mythfrontend
[00:10:00] nuonguy: Check it out: remove everything then install only the bare minimum: http://pastebin.com/563557
[00:11:00] drdaz: nuonguy: http://pastebin.com/563559

[00:19:00] drdaz: nuonguy: which version of libmyth have you got?
[00:19:00] jams: those horizontal themes are not really made for more then 6 items on a single menu screen
[00:20:00] danielscott: jams: it's magic! I wasn't able to find anything to this effect in the docs. thank you!
[00:21:00] jams: sure lot easy then editing the sql tables
[00:21:00] danielscott: jams: indeed, espec. because i'm uber-nubie.

[01:20:00] Agrajag-: find out what's using it and rmmod that too?
[01:21:00] sphing: WeezeyD: i think it depends on if your kernel has force module unloading
[01:21:00] WeezeyD: ivtv is in use by ivtv_fb and ivtv_fb is just in use.
[01:21:00] Ukyo[MegaTokyo]: anyone here know a way to get HDTV Food network on a coax output for use on the box? Every where I look they use set top boxes that only outputs component, hdmi, etc.. they wont allow passthrough
[01:21:00] psofa: gremlin484, i dont even know what you are talking about but there is a question like that in the troubleshooting docs in myths site
[01:21:00] WeezeyD: I think I need to stop it to change the volume settings on the card.

[01:27:00] GreyFoxx: you have 2 ways to do it, edit the sql database manually
[01:27:00] GreyFoxx: or go into your themes directory and rename another theme to have the same name as the one you picked
[01:29:00] Juski: quink: or use the page down key to make the setup menu option magically re-appear
[01:31:00] quink: Juski: hey you the guy who does project grayhem?
[01:31:00] Ukyo[MegaTokyo]: hey guys, right now I am using mce, looking at redoing the box into mythtv
[01:31:00] Ukyo[MegaTokyo]: got some q's :P
[01:31:00] Juski: btw GreyFoxx: saw that weird vid. preview issue in 0.19 on my minimyth – doesn't happen in grayhem though
[01:31:00] Juski: quink: yeah
[01:31:00] quink: cool. i just bookmarked your page
[01:31:00] quink: weird preview problem? is that the moire pattern that hte previews are showing or somethign else?
[01:31:00] danielscott (n=danielsc@mn-71-49-81-231.dhcp.sprint-hsd.net) Quit ()
[01:32:00] Juski: looks worse than a moire pattern

[01:32:00] quink: well best way to explain it
[01:32:00] Juski: more like greyscale video & the chroma isn't being scaled right
[01:32:00] GreyFoxx: the colour bleed issue
[01:32:00] GreyFoxx: yeah
[01:32:00] Juski: that's the one
[01:32:00] quink: yeah.
[01:32:00] quink: mine looks like moire
[01:32:00] quink: i think
[01:32:00] quink: i didn't ponder too hard.
[01:32:00] scopeuk: any one know how to make samba work properly
[01:33:00] scopeuk: either im too tired or its soem hwo serious ly screwed up
[01:33:00] Juski: I was chuffed my theme doesn't have the problem but puzzled at the same time
[01:33:00] quink: my main thing right now is figure out how to make things look right on a widescreen tv
[01:33:00] Ukyo[MegaTokyo]: on MCE, it's realyl crappy. only records in mpeg2 (horribly huge files)
[01:33:00] quink: my way sorta works but i doubt its the right way. cause i run into problems at times.
[01:33:00] Juski: quink: use a widescreen theme
[01:33:00] quink: heh.
[01:33:00] quink: well i mean in the x.conf file and whatnot
[01:34:00] quink: and when i play a widescreen dvd in xine to make it fill the screen fully.
[01:34:00] Juski: www.juski.co.uk/xorg.conf – look for the DISPLAYSIZE lines
[01:34:00] Ukyo[MegaTokyo]: but it stores recording show and recording info in meta tags. episode name/ description etc.. does myth have a way of doing this? and i take it myth lets you choose what codec to use ?
[01:34:00] Juski: Ukyo: myth does a bit more than that
[01:35:00] Juski: read the documentation on www.mythtv.org
[01:35:00] Ukyo[MegaTokyo]: am doing so atm
[01:35:00] Ukyo[MegaTokyo]: myth seems to seriously tower over mce
[01:35:00] Ukyo[MegaTokyo]: but from what everyone says, its a royal pita to setup
[01:35:00] Juski: hmmm indeed. that's no accident
[01:35:00] Ukyo[MegaTokyo]: esp. with my tuner
[01:35:00] Juski: it _can_ be a pain to setup
[01:35:00] quink: Juski: i saw a lot about display size, but i don't quite get how that works in conjunction with other resoultions?
[01:35:00] Anduin: Ukyo[MegaTokyo] – If you have an MCE compatible cards the mpeg2 is probably coming from the hardware.
[01:36:00] WeezeyD: on my PVR-350, the ivtvctl -Y shows Volume: 0
[01:36:00] Ukyo[MegaTokyo]: Anduin: thats part of my current problem
[01:36:00] WeezeyD: as far as I can figure, that's why I don't have incoming volume
[01:36:00] Ukyo[MegaTokyo]: i have the hdtv wonder. no onboard mpeg2 decoder
[01:36:00] Juski: quink: pal or ntsc TV should be 720x576 or 720x480 respectively.. or the native res of your LCD/plasma TV
[01:36:00] Ukyo[MegaTokyo]: had to jump through hoops to make it work
[01:36:00] Anduin: Ukyo[MegaTokyo] – It will be the same in myth
[01:36:00] Ukyo[MegaTokyo]: another hook to make the drivers see it as 2 tuners
[01:36:00] quink: http://optimusprimal.com/~quink/xorg.conf thats my config file at the moment
[01:37:00] quink: ntsc
[01:37:00] Ukyo[MegaTokyo]: i am told if i put an additional AIW TV unit with mpeg2 decoder, it can share it.
[01:37:00] quink: what i did was a lot of Option "TVVSizeAdj" "43" to make it stretch and fit
[01:37:00] quink: which i doubt is right
[01:37:00] Juski: ATI devices, particularly recent tuners aren't well supported by linux
[01:37:00] quink: its a 9200se

[01:42:00] quink: oh duh
[01:42:00] quink: i missed that.
[01:43:00] quink: i guess i'll comment out my tv-out ajdustments, throw in display size and see how it goes

[01:46:00] quink: could have been projection
[01:47:00] briand: Juski: nice... I just upgraded my Zenith 27" stereo to a Sharp 32" flat-screen stereo.
[01:47:00] Juski: projectors didn't get a look in back then – they're much better now though
[01:47:00] quink: for the displaysize option, does it matter what numbers you use as long as they follow 16:9?
[01:48:00] Juski: just use them numbers.. it all works out

[01:52:00] briand: oops.. just jumped up to 0.7%
[01:52:00] sphing: ... if you're using a hardware encoder that stat means nothin
[01:53:00] briand: actually, I believe it means I'm currently using between 0.5 and 0.7 % cpu
[01:54:00] quink: does hdtv look acceptable over composite out?
[01:54:00] sphing: ok briand
[01:55:00] briand: sphing: ...but, yes.. I have hardware encoding/decoding on my MythTV box.
[01:55:00] DreadPirateBob: quink: No
[01:55:00] quink: DreadPirateBob: its that bad?
[01:55:00] briand: sphing: do you think 0.19 has a bit more overhead for software decoding?
[01:55:00] DreadPirateBob: composite can't do that kind of resolution
[01:55:00] sphing: i'm running it on an xbox
[01:55:00] sphing: and its choppy... which is why i'm asking
[01:55:00] quink: so how do you conect hd to tv?
[01:56:00] DreadPirateBob: best you'll get out of composite, or even s-video is 800x600
[01:56:00] coochan: briand: let meknow if you find out about CC
[01:56:00] braniff: software encoding sucks
[01:56:00] danielscott: quink: you'll need to use component, or hdmi
[01:56:00] DreadPirateBob: quink: Through dvi, svideo, hdmi, or component.
[01:56:00] danielscott: indeed.
[01:56:00] DreadPirateBob: sorry. Not svideo, vga.
[01:56:00] DreadPirateBob: svideo won't cut it.
[01:57:00] briand: coochan: you know what I know, thus far. ie: it's supported in ivtv 0.4.x, and it's supported for PVR-350/250 in MythTV 0.19 ...beyond that, what to set how, I do not (yet) know.
[01:57:00] DreadPirateBob: Some vid cards have component out. They're labeled HDTV out.
[01:57:00] coochan: briand: I remember finding it before...
[01:57:00] coochan: it should be in README.vbi
[01:58:00] coochan: briand: are you running a new kernel and new ivtv ?

[02:05:00] coochan: or xine
[02:05:00] coochan: if you know, why ask?
[02:05:00] Hoxzer: I was just thinking if I could select the file in mythtv
[02:06:00] nuonguy: For all you wondering that library enables me to --enable-aac, the answer is faad2
[02:06:00] Hoxzer: because xine "browse file" doesn't look good in normal tv
[02:06:00] briand: coochan: oh.. i see. you typed "bri<tab>" instead of "bra<tab>" and meant to be asking braniff not briand
[02:06:00] coochan: sowwy
[02:06:00] briand: s'alright
[02:06:00] coochan: "browse file" ?
[02:07:00] ** coochan never used xine much **
[02:07:00] braniff: huh? what?
[02:07:00] coochan: tab completion in irssi is annoying
[02:07:00] coochan: it should work like bash
[02:08:00] ** braniff is not running 0.19 yet, because he's been busy as hell and hasn't had time to mess with mythtv much **
[02:08:00] coochan: briand: I'm pretty sure you need ivtv 0.4.3
[02:08:00] coochan: it seems like 0.19 has a lot of improvements for peep with 2 or more tuner cards...
[02:09:00] coochan: so I'm excited to get it going
[02:09:00] Hoxzer: coochan: dont I need to select the xvid file in xine?
[02:09:00] braniff: no packages for 0.19 for any distros yet ??
[02:10:00] braniff: i thought Axell said he would have them out "in a few hours"
[02:11:00] DreadPirateBob: I have packages for rPath Linux at dvr-n8.rpath.org
[02:11:00] coochan: Hoxzer: erm... you lost me
[02:11:00] DreadPirateBob: :)
[02:11:00] coochan: what I do is use the mythvideo plugin, which is used to pick the file I want, then that feeds it to mplayer
[02:11:00] Hoxzer: coochan: so we were talking about xvid/divx support in mythtv
[02:11:00] coochan: if you do anyhting else, I can't help, because that works for me (TM) and I don't know anything about xine
[02:11:00] Hoxzer: coochan: and I said browse file wouldn't look too good in normal tv
[02:11:00] braniff: rPath....hmm. Can't say I've heard of it
[02:12:00] coochan: Hoxzer: hello?

[02:12:00] Hoxzer: coochan: hello
[02:12:00] coochan: briand: that should put the VBI data into the stream
[02:12:00] Hoxzer: browse file menu I mean
[02:12:00] briand: coochan: i've got those options in ivtv 0.4.0 as well
[02:12:00] coochan: briand: yes, but likely, they don't work

[02:15:00] Kelerion: fixing a network protocol problem.. no idea how I got mismatched versions.. they were both svn up'd at the same time today.. but I think it's just got it's knickers in a twist to am removing all traces and re-installing
[02:15:00] coochan: briand: obviously on playback you'd need to turn it on...
[02:16:00] coochan: braniff: I do that unless I'm at my TV and only the remote is handy

[02:37:00] ip_goat_rodeo: I'm noticing most people that are doing hdtv seem to be going through a VGA to HDMI or DVI to component adapter. Is that due to component video directly on video cards not working or just to lack of component out on their cards?
[02:38:00] DreadPirateBob: ip_goat_rodeo: component out is a relatively new thing on video cards.
[02:38:00] DreadPirateBob: And you have to get special cards to do it.

[03:16:00] k-man: i recently added a second 250gig drive to my setup
[03:16:00] sanmarcos: how much?
[03:16:00] k-man: using lvm
[03:16:00] k-man: it was easy
[03:17:00] sanmarcos: lvm is for raid?

[03:17:00] sanmarcos: or what the advantages of it are
[03:17:00] k-man: basicaly you can just add space and extend your existing partitions
[03:17:00] k-man: it virtualises your partitions across your drives
[03:18:00] sanmarcos: so you can have one partition for 4 drives
[03:18:00] sanmarcos: like raid
[03:18:00] sanmarcos: virtual partition that is, one mounpoint for many drives

[03:20:00] sanmarcos: nope, US
[03:20:00] k-man: oh, ok
[03:20:00] k-man: imho, 7k2 drives are plenty fast enough for mythtv

[03:31:00] mchou: If you got 1GB of physical mem I dont think it's worthwhile to enable HIGHMEM
[03:31:00] mchou: 126M of HIGHMEM is more trouble than it's worth.

[05:17:00] coochan: right... its good for people who need like 100 machine farms
[05:17:00] wakko: Well, most pros that I know run Maya on Windows
[05:17:00] wakko: yeah
[05:17:00] coochan: ironic that the machines that are the hardest for newbiew are the easiest to manage in a big farm
[05:17:00] wakko: cheap renderfarms = linux
[05:18:00] wakko: but that's not my department
[05:18:00] coochan: yah yah, got it
[05:18:00] wakko: heh
[05:18:00] wakko: Enjoying Linux, but I'd like a more ubiquitous UI
[05:18:00] coochan: wakka: anyh9ow, did you find lsmod ?
[05:18:00] wakko: seems powerful
[05:18:00] phar0e: why would farms need computers?
[05:18:00] wakko: ah
[05:18:00] thechris: ok, the permission thing failed

[05:19:00] coochan: thechris: RTM
[05:19:00] wakko: no lsmod in (/usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bi n:/home/mythtv/bin)

[05:19:00] coochan: wakko: try /sbin/lsmod
[05:19:00] thechris: because it used to do it, then i upgraded to 0.19 and now it stoped working
[05:19:00] coochan: thechris: ew
[05:19:00] wakko: that didi something – yielded a list of stuff
[05:19:00] thechris: phar0e: the settings in mythtv-setup are correct. upgrading to 0.19 seems to have broken something
[05:20:00] thechris: it'd be nice if myth would log this kinda thing...
[05:20:00] coochan: wakko: ok, then, again, '/sbin/lsmod | grep lirc'
[05:20:00] wakko: ok
[05:20:00] wakko: 3 items
[05:20:00] coochan: good good
[05:20:00] rav3r: im having trouble telling why two instances of mythfrontend are starting when i restart
[05:21:00] wakko: is that a list of running processes?
[05:21:00] coochan: no, the list of kernel modules that are loaded
[05:21:00] coochan: wakko: its just not working right?
[05:21:00] rav3r: i have a script from here: http://www.wilsonet.com/mythtv/fcmyth.php#auto
[05:21:00] wakko: Well, I don't really know how to tell if it is working
[05:21:00] rav3r: all i did was add export DISPLAY=:0.0 before the mythfrontend call to target one of my screens
[05:22:00] thechris: so far i have the permissions set up as 777, the directory exists. mythtv-setup shows the correct settings. no errors are logged. i've proved that ivtv works.
[05:22:00] coochan: wakko: do you have the receiver plugged into the hauppauge card?
[05:22:00] wakko: the directions on Jarod's guide say that I should see 2 "OK"s after I type "/sbin/servide lircd start"
[05:22:00] thechris: mythtv 0.19 thinks it is recording, but makes no file
[05:22:00] wakko: the IR reciever is plugged in
[05:22:00] thechris: and logs nothing useful
[05:22:00] coochan: 'servide' eh?
[05:23:00] coochan: that must be a RH thing, no clue what that is
[05:23:00] wakko: yeah – please pardon the typing. I'm trying to keep up
[05:24:00] coochan: np
[05:24:00] coochan: trying to find a good tester
[05:24:00] wakko: ok well, to test, I guess I'm supposed to type "/usr/bin/irw"
[05:24:00] coochan: oh?
[05:24:00] coochan: go ahead then :)
[05:24:00] wakko: and I get "no file or directory"
[05:24:00] coochan: hmm
[05:24:00] coochan: 'locate irw'
[05:25:00] wakko: coochan: "warning: locate: could not open database: /var/lib/slocate/slocate.db: No such file or directory"
[05:26:00] coochan: that's ok
[05:26:00] coochan: did you just install?
[05:26:00] wakko: yeah
[05:26:00] wakko: I just did "updatedb"
[05:26:00] coochan: it probalby hasn't built the database yet
[05:26:00] wakko: and locate works now
[05:27:00] coochan: so,... do you have irw installed?
[05:27:00] wakko: looks like its installed.
[05:27:00] wakko: yes
[05:27:00] smcnaught: might be in /usr/local/bin/
[05:27:00] wakko: usr/bin/irw
[05:27:00] coochan: so you might have to run that with the full path
[05:27:00] coochan: that's odd, /usr/bin is in your path as well
[05:28:00] wakko: yeah
[05:28:00] coochan: sometimees you have to run 'hash -r' so 'bash' (the shell program) re-hashes what is in the path or not
[05:29:00] smcnaught: permission issue?
[05:29:00] thechris: someone suggested that i try "the other codecs on the mythtv site" i cannot find them
[05:30:00] coochan: thechris: someone lied.. therea re no codecs there
[05:30:00] wakko: pehaps a restart will clean thing sup?
[05:30:00] coochan: thank god
[05:30:00] coochan: wakko: well, did you run irw?
[05:30:00] wakko: nope
[05:30:00] wakko: it will not run
[05:30:00] coochan: what does it say?
[05:30:00] wakko: I keep getting a no such file or directory error

[05:30:00] smcnaught: config file is missing
[05:30:00] coochan: paste it...
[05:30:00] smcnaught: I had that error

[05:32:00] smcnaught: and the file ~/.mythtv/lircrc
[05:32:00] thechris: I think i know where the problem is.
[05:32:00] smcnaught: what type of remote is it?
[05:32:00] thechris: i cannot do a "watch tv"
[05:32:00] thechris: why?
[05:33:00] wakko: the 34 button grey with colored buttons around the arrow keys
[05:33:00] smcnaught: thechris: you had it workin before on a previous version? or new install?
[05:33:00] thechris: smcnaught: 0.18 worked
[05:33:00] coochan: thechris: try watching /dev/video0 from cmdline
[05:33:00] thechris: coochan: that works
[05:33:00] coochan: wakko: the one that came with the hauppauge 350 ?
[05:33:00] smcnaught: thechris: fraid I can't help.. running 0.18.1
[05:34:00] wakko: 250, and yes it came with it
[05:34:00] coochan: me too
[05:34:00] smcnaught: wakko: the files are available online
[05:34:00] coochan: just google for hauppauge 250 lirc
[05:34:00] coochan: or lircd.conf
[05:34:00] wakko: cool – any idea where I can get them?
[05:34:00] wakko: ok
[05:34:00] thechris: smcnaught: i think i figured it out. seems the gentoo package has issues...
[05:35:00] diff: any minimyth users out there?
[05:35:00] thechris: i don't think 'mythtv' got added to the 'video' group
[05:36:00] thechris: hmm, that didn't fix it either
[05:36:00] thechris: i wish mythtv would log something...
[05:36:00] coochan: thechris: did you look in the mythfrontend and backend logs?
[05:36:00] coochan: it does log
[05:36:00] smcnaught: ohh.. ok.. for that one.. I think you need to edit a file in /etc/.. just trying to remember what one.. looking
[05:36:00] coochan: for me the init thows backend log to /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log
[05:37:00] thechris: coochan: i've found the log, but it doens't log anything about what is going on
[05:37:00] coochan: if not, then run the backend from the cmdline with --verbose all argument
[05:37:00] coochan: thechris: frontend and backend you checked?
[05:37:00] coochan: and verbose all both of them
[05:38:00] coochan: and if still no joy, maybe pastebin the messages
[05:39:00] thechris: hmm. it seems mythtv is doing things it should not do. it wants to use svideo0 instead of tuner0

[05:46:00] smcnaught: might be a rabbits trail tho..
[05:47:00] smcnaught: thechris: you stated that ivtv works from the command line using mplayer or xine?
[05:47:00] coochan: thechris: I did LVM with jfs, very happy

[06:33:00] coochan: as long it's not a 0.19 specific issue

[06:33:00] rav3r: yes

[06:34:00] rav3r: the site has been down for days, that is google's cache
[06:35:00] rav3r: i got to 'change_chan.sh 12' and am getting nothing from the blaster
[06:35:00] rav3r: no signal at all
[06:35:00] coochan: is this to drive a settop box right?
[06:35:00] rav3r: yes

[06:36:00] rav3r: i bought mine from http://www.irblaster.info/

[06:37:00] coochan: rav3r: you should kinda dimly see a light emitted on the device when you try to tell it to change channels
[06:37:00] rav3r: i don't know if it is bucause of .19 or what, but it wasn't playable before
[06:37:00] achew22: would someone be willing to help me with my sound card? or be willing to point me to a channel where someone will?
[06:38:00] rav3r: yes, i was checking that with my digital camera, got nothing
[06:38:00] coochan: with your digital camera?
[06:38:00] coochan: I don't follow... you should be able to see it with your plain sight
[06:38:00] rav3r: yes, to see ir
[06:38:00] coochan: huh
[06:39:00] coochan: why is lirc involved here anyhow?
[06:39:00] coochan: this guide is wierd
[06:39:00] rav3r: you can use a digital camera lcd screen to see ir flashes that your naked eye doesn't see
[06:39:00] rav3r: but, either way, there is no flash
[06:39:00] coochan: interesting
[06:39:00] coochan: ok, well, the guide is for a IR receiver as well as the blaster?
[06:40:00] rav3r: yes, my receiver is working though
[06:40:00] rav3r: that guide is supposed to let you use one instance of lirc or something
[06:40:00] coochan: um
[06:40:00] rav3r: i don't care what guide i use though, just what ever works
[06:41:00] coochan: well, for me, changing channels with the blaster, lirc has nothing to do with it
[06:41:00] rav3r: and i am lost
[06:41:00] coochan: it's just signals to the serial port which then get blasted out
[06:41:00] rav3r: ok, that guide had me copy my remote codes for my cable remote into the same file as the one for my mythtv remote
[06:41:00] coochan: so I think yuou're doing the wrong thing

[06:42:00] coochan: irsend is wrong if the device is a serial device
[06:42:00] rav3r: perhaps that is why that site has been down for so long, it's crap
[06:43:00] rav3r: ok
[06:44:00] coochan: hmm
[06:45:00] coochan: maybe you do need lirc

[06:46:00] coochan: it doesn't use lirc at all

[06:48:00] rav3r: but i didn't get that one
[06:48:00] rav3r: seems like they should work simmiliar
[06:48:00] coochan: oy...
[06:49:00] coochan: I think my device has more smarts in it, and you don't need to use lirc to figure out the emitting part

[06:51:00] rav3r: but i already have lirc working
[06:51:00] coochan: to unpakc lirc sources ?
[06:52:00] coochan: you need 1 lirc for your remote control (input *to* myth) and another (hacked) lirc for the output

[06:53:00] CrazyP: I am trying to setup mythtv atm. Under the Capture Card Setup menu I do not have anything for video device, how can I figure out what the device is?
[06:53:00] coochan: e.g., mine is Time-Warner digital cable, scientific atlanta
[06:53:00] rav3r: sa explorer 8000
[06:53:00] rav3r: mine too
[06:53:00] coochan: ah
[06:53:00] rav3r: the dvr model
[06:53:00] rav3r: with the two tuners
[06:53:00] coochan: erm... for now you can also put the cable right into the card, if it takes BNC input, and tune there
[06:54:00] rav3r: BNC input?
[06:54:00] coochan: what I do is split the cable signal prior to it going to the cable box, and take the analog cable channels directly on one captgure cards, and all the channels via svideo from the SA settop box
[06:54:00] coochan: yah, BNC is what cable is
[06:54:00] coochan: the round cable with the wire poking out in the middle
[06:55:00] rav3r: coax?
[06:55:00] coochan: right
[06:55:00] coochan: coac
[06:55:00] coochan: coax
[06:55:00] rav3r: this is mine
[06:55:00] rav3r: http://www.timewarnercable.com/MediaLibrary/1 . . . %20Guide.pdf
[06:55:00] coochan: the hauppauge 350 for instance is "cable ready" and can recieve the un-crypted channels right from your cable
[06:56:00] rav3r: i have the 150
[06:56:00] coochan: it should be cable ready I think... anyhow that might get you thru for now
[06:57:00] coochan: anyhow...
[06:57:00] rav3r: i know i can connect the cable to it, but how would it change chanals?
[06:57:00] coochan: so you couldn't extrace the lirc sources ?

[06:57:00] coochan: yah, ptune.pl
[06:58:00] coochan: I had to do this weird mapping from one channel to another
[06:58:00] coochan: (no fscking idea why)
[06:58:00] rav3r: but the coax, it's one way, right?
[06:58:00] coochan: definately
[06:58:00] coochan: don't expect too much of course :)
[06:58:00] anxt: i just installed ivtv-04.2 and now things aren't working, i deleted cards and readded in mythtv-setup
[06:58:00] rav3r: it just gets what ever chanel the box is on
[06:58:00] coochan: but I get the b'casted channels that way and a few more
[06:58:00] coochan: no
[06:59:00] coochan: it can tune to 1, 2, 4, 3, 5, etc...
[06:59:00] rav3r: ah, you may non-digital

[06:59:00] coochan: ah, yes
[06:59:00] rav3r: yes, i'm with you
[06:59:00] coochan: you use the sa box to tune the channel and the tuner in the hauppauge just isn't used
[07:00:00] coochan: if you're stuck on those isntructions I can help but you'd have to be specific on what is blocking
[07:00:00] splAt1 is now known as splat1
[07:01:00] rav3r: ok, so i have lirc working now, and i need another instance of it, but do i have to do all in stage 1? or can i 'copy' the working one i have now?
[07:01:00] coochan: lets see
[07:02:00] coochan: if you have the lirc sources at the same version, you should be able to use that
[07:02:00] coochan: but you'll still need to hack it,... that's what myth-ledxmit.sh does
[07:03:00] rav3r: i think i have lircd 0.8.0
[07:04:00] coochan: be careful!
[07:04:00] coochan: try it with 0.7.2....
[07:05:00] rav3r: this is what happens
[07:05:00] rav3r: bzip2 -d *bz2 ; tar xf *tar
[07:05:00] rav3r: bzip2: lirc-0.8.0.tar.bz2 is not a bzip2 file.
[07:06:00] coochan: does this work:
[07:06:00] coochan: tar tjf lirc-0.8.0.tar.bz2
[07:06:00] coochan: you don't need the bunzip step, modern tar works with bzip2 (the -j flag rather than -z)
[07:06:00] rav3r: bzip2: (stdin) is not a bzip2 file.
[07:06:00] rav3r: tar: Child returned status 2
[07:06:00] rav3r: tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
[07:06:00] coochan: rav3r: try this:
[07:06:00] coochan: file lirc-0.8.0.tar.bz2
[07:06:00] coochan: what does it say?
[07:06:00] rav3r: lirc-0.8.0.tar.bz2: HTML document text
[07:07:00] coochan: ah so
[07:07:00] coochan: believe it
[07:07:00] rav3r: but it should be 0.7.2
[07:07:00] rav3r: right?
[07:07:00] coochan: right
[07:08:00] coochan: start with that wget dcommand there
[07:08:00] rav3r: perhaps i should remove myth-ledxmit
[07:08:00] rav3r: start over
[07:08:00] coochan: if you like
[07:09:00] rav3r: what is the rmdir for a directory not empty?
[07:09:00] coochan: 'rm -r <dir>'
[07:09:00] rav3r: i forget
[07:09:00] coochan: be very careful tho
[07:09:00] rav3r: as long as it's the right directory?
[07:09:00] coochan: xmms + imms is rocking out as my automated DJ!
[07:09:00] coochan: right
[07:10:00] coochan: 'rm -r /' will definately ruin your system completely
[07:10:00] rav3r: yuck

[08:44:00] coochan: aftetr upgrade to 0.19
[08:45:00] anxt: uhh i was stupid

[08:49:00] SlicerDicer-: perhaps one of you has experience and can advise
[08:49:00] coochan: so, in fact, the documetation only covers obsolete apache?
[08:49:00] SlicerDicer-: does anybody know why deinterlace works on 32bit but not 64bit?
[08:50:00] Chicago: SlicerDicer: did deinterlace work for you on 64bit on v18? which version are you using?
[08:50:00] SlicerDicer-: v18
[08:50:00] SlicerDicer-: I havent gone to 19 yet
[08:50:00] SlicerDicer-: takes alot of effort on my part to switch it
[08:50:00] coochan: blah
[08:50:00] SlicerDicer-: were talking a ton of computers haha
[08:51:00] coochan: I'm starting to get a bad opinion of the mythweb maintainer

[08:51:00] anxt: my leftoivers are better than simba the golden retriever ate

[08:51:00] SlicerDicer-: no issues
[08:51:00] Chicago: SlicerDicer: I'm having transition issues w/ v19.
[08:51:00] SlicerDicer-: ohh 19
[08:51:00] Juski: it's a problem with the chair/keyboard interface
[08:51:00] coochan: so you assume
[08:52:00] Juski: no, I don't assume. I know. Got 0.19 working just fine here

[08:53:00] coochan: well, tell me, what did I do wrong if the htaccess is configured properly but it still says its not?
[08:53:00] coochan: and there's no apache error log here at all
[08:53:00] coochan: it says to enable mod_env but there's no such thing — pretty clear documentation bug ?
[08:53:00] coochan: or am I missing something obvious
[08:53:00] CrazyP: anxt, do i need to do anything else once i put the fw in the hotplug dir? Or should I be good to go?
[08:53:00] Juski: do you have mod_rewrite enabled?
[08:53:00] coochan: yup
[08:53:00] Chicago: coochan: ya know, I had that same problem and never fixed it... so I just took it down. I never needed .htacces on my apache until mythweb.
[08:54:00] anxt: make sure hotplug is running
[08:54:00] anxt: other than that it should work
[08:54:00] coochan: I'm very familiar with htaccess
[08:54:00] Juski: okay... did you have an .htaccess file in the mythweb directory already?
[08:54:00] coochan: yup, it's a symlink tho
[08:54:00] Juski: the installer won't write the new one if there's already one there, see
[08:55:00] coochan: um, I don't think that's the problem
[08:55:00] Juski: your .htaccess file is a symlink? mine's a proper file here
[08:55:00] coochan: let me check the version from the pkg to make sure
[08:56:00] coochan: Juski: well, you're running it in a different context
[08:56:00] Juski: how do you mean?
[08:56:00] CrazyP: anxt, yeah, i finally have a /dev/video*

[08:56:00] coochan: I cleared out the dir and reinstalled to be sure
[08:57:00] Juski: why would the debian packager make the file symlinked to somewhere else? strange

[08:57:00] anxt: crabstic,
[08:57:00] anxt: CrazyP, try and cat some of that into a file.mpg
[08:58:00] anxt: or
[08:58:00] anxt: mplayer /dev/v4l/video0
[08:58:00] anxt: should work
[08:58:00] anxt: you have a working mplayer?
[08:58:00] coochan: god I hate debugging PHP, here we go again
[08:58:00] Juski: coochan: .htaccess files can go in the base directory of mythweb without any issues, the whole idea of them is to configure access to different vhosts & directories in apache2
[08:58:00] anxt: i am java coder for a living atm
[08:59:00] anxt: i hate that but borland makes it real easy
[08:59:00] Juski: so it's natural to put them anywhere but /etc
[08:59:00] coochan: Juski: well, to make you happy, I'll replace the symlink with the file
[08:59:00] anxt: i didn't know a line of java a month ago
[08:59:00] coochan: but I am willing to be $100 it won't matter
[08:59:00] CrazyP: anxt, i got /dev/video[0,24,32] which do i use?

[08:59:00] coochan: takers?
[08:59:00] anxt: use 0
[08:59:00] anxt: 24 is radio i think
[08:59:00] Juski: hey I'm happy as long as my system works okay :-P
[08:59:00] coochan: apparently
[09:00:00] coochan: just don't go blaming the victim out of ignorance
[09:00:00] Juski: maybe the problem is with the package then
[09:00:00] coochan: its possible
[09:01:00] coochan: however, why is it that it's so hard to really determine the problem
[09:01:00] Juski: thing with mythweb is that you can pretty much just decompress the tarball & copy the mythweb directory in there yourself
[09:01:00] CrazyP: anxt, yeah i'm tryin cat /dev/video0 file.mpg but the file isn't being created once I stoped the 'cat'
[09:01:00] coochan: that's true, I've done that before
[09:01:00] anxt: pastebin you dmesg

[09:03:00] Juski: on my box on friday the only issue I had was that one line in .htaccess needed changing – the server address
[09:04:00] Juski: that, and the init script for mythbackend wasn't working – it was using /etc/mythtv/.mythtv/mysql.txt for some reason
[09:05:00] coochan: Juski: ew
[09:06:00] CrazyP: anxt, the cat to a file worked, but i can't watch tv still...
[09:06:00] coochan: just the same... damn
[09:06:00] coochan: what pisses me off is that the PHP script is STDERR'ing the actual error
[09:06:00] coochan: or a code or anything
[09:07:00] coochan: I don't care how much you say it works for you (TM) but that just breaks decent software design

[09:08:00] CrazyP: yeah, ive run that
[09:08:00] coochan: mythweb running on samae box as the backend and the db
[09:09:00] coochan: anyhhow that doesn'ta pply to debian/sarge
[09:09:00] Juski: coochan yes, but like the guy in the 1st post said... "Mysql was not listening to the
[09:09:00] Juski: network, so mythweb could not connect to it."
[09:09:00] coochan: no, that's definately not it
[09:09:00] Juski: you not skipping networking?
[09:09:00] coochan: I can connect to the DB from any mahcine on my LAN here

[10:08:00] juski: phew
[10:08:00] johnp_: (BTW I work for sun )

[10:17:00] stuarta: so he needed a way to convert that for display...
[10:18:00] juski: this oculd be tied into the main recorder couldn't it?
[10:18:00] juski: so that channels which aren't broadcasting are shown properly, as a STB would
[10:18:00] stuarta: somehow feed it through the dummyrecorder....
[10:19:00] stuarta: the main bit to test initially would be the object carousel & mheg interpreter.

[10:22:00] stuarta: ivor, thought it already was.
[10:23:00] juski: why oh dear? playing back a recording with subtitles.. was very erm.. stumbly. and causes playback to start from the beginning of the recording again

[10:23:00] juski: it's no big deal for me cos I don't depend on subtitles
[10:24:00] juski: might just be a minimyth problem.
[10:24:00] Merlin83b: Weird, seemed to work fine for me turning on subtitle half way through a programme.
[10:24:00] stuarta: likely is minimyth problem.
[10:24:00] Merlin83b: I guess so.
[10:24:00] juski: programme was being time-stretched at the same time – I dunno if that's cause it problems
[10:25:00] Merlin83b: Hmm, could be. I was watching at normal speed.

[14:26:00] shadash: or will the HDTV card do both regular TV and HDTV
[14:27:00] DreadPirateBob: shadash: depends on the card.
[14:28:00] DreadPirateBob: Most likely your HDTV card can't do ntsc.
[14:28:00] shadash: well which one can do both
[14:29:00] DreadPirateBob: Well, what kind of "regular tv" do you want?
[14:29:00] shadash: ntsc
[14:30:00] DreadPirateBob: cable? digital-cable? OTA?
[14:30:00] juski: don't think there are any HDTV & hardware encoding SDTV cards yet
[14:30:00] shadash: cable
[14:30:00] shadash: hmmm
[14:30:00] DreadPirateBob: the air2pc HD-5000 supports QAM
[14:30:00] DreadPirateBob: But not analog cable
[14:30:00] shadash: QAM is digital cable?

[14:32:00] shadash: ok so here's the scenario... I have digital cable and get hdtv signals with it. air2pc will do the hdtv capture. Will it also capture the regular channels?
[14:33:00] juski: oh dear. it's likely the HDTV stuff on the cable is encrypted
[14:33:00] shadash: so I'd have to get it after the cable box?
[14:33:00] tweak_st: probably the 'premium' channels are
[14:34:00] tweak_st: shadash its the easiest solution
[14:34:00] shadash: wall -> cable box (from cable provider) -> myth system -> tv
[14:35:00] juski: firewire will give you the best quality capture
[14:35:00] juski: but some channels will be 5C encoded & you won't be able to use them in myth
[14:35:00] shadash: component from cable box (from cable provider) to myth system isn't good?
[14:36:00] Beirdo: heheh
[14:36:00] Beirdo: you found a compenent video capture card for Linux?
[14:36:00] DreadPirateBob: shadash: D-A-D-A. Sounds like a job for a supercomputer.
[14:36:00] shadash: I thought that's what the air2pc cards were?
[14:37:00] DreadPirateBob: coax is the only input
[14:37:00] Beirdo: air2pc don't capture component video, they capture ATSC and QAM
[14:38:00] shadash: ok so coax from cable box (from cable provider) to myth system. if coax out is availale
[14:38:00] shadash: that should get by all the encrypted channels
[14:38:00] juski: HDTV OTA & cable cards demodulate the signal into data. MPEG2 data which gets spat across the PCI bus onto your HDD
[14:38:00] sphing: Beirdo almost wet himself when he thought there was a component card
[14:39:00] DreadPirateBob: shadash: that won't work.
[14:39:00] shadash: why not? LIRC can control both systems
[14:39:00] juski: actually if you read the datasheets for modern mpeg2 encoder chips as used on our common pvr cards & similar, they claim to be able to do it at HD resoultions
[14:40:00] juski: and they can be configured to take component inputs, so _you_ work out why there are none in the market ;-)
[14:40:00] shadash: I did find one in taiwan about a year ago but it was never sold in US. Never made it to market

[14:45:00] juski: shadash: by law the cable co has to give you a box with firewire if you ask for one
[14:46:00] shadash: interesting
[14:46:00] juski: plenty of mail list traffic about that subject
[14:46:00] shadash: gotcha
[14:47:00] juski: shadash.. what's interesting is that the cable company people on the front desk might not even know your rights, or what this 'fire wire' is ;-)
[14:48:00] shadash: Very very interesting
[14:48:00] Beirdo: hell, they might not even know what "coax" is
[14:48:00] juski: heheh
[14:48:00] Beirdo: the cable companies aren't known for their brilliant employees
[14:48:00] shadash: I have a friend that makes his living off of class action suits
[14:48:00] juski: how's you mouth today Beirdo?
[14:48:00] Beirdo: not too bad still
[14:49:00] Beirdo: but I'm staying home as the tylenol 3 has a habit of knocking me cold
[14:49:00] juski: ah
[14:49:00] juski: even its name sounds powerful
[14:49:00] shadash: If there was a way to prove that the cable companies were actively trying to not provide firewire he could sue them
[14:49:00] Beirdo: rather sleep on my couch at home than at my desk at work
[14:49:00] Beirdo: it has 3 grains of codeine added
[14:50:00] shadash: they make millions off of cell phone companies
[14:50:00] Beirdo: shadash, your "friend" is the worst kinda leech.
[14:50:00] juski: and cell phone companies make only teeny weeny profits.. I know.. I feel really sorry for them
[14:50:00] shadash: not really
[14:50:00] juski: narf
[14:50:00] shadash: verizon was screwing people it how it billed them
[14:51:00] Beirdo: lawyers who go out for class action suits rip off the clients and the companies, just to get rich
[14:51:00] Beirdo: in the end the consumer pays more as a result
[14:51:00] juski: nobody becomes a lawyer to help people..
[14:51:00] shadash: ummm AT&T one rate was screwing their customers
[14:51:00] juski: apart from themselves I mean ;-)
[14:52:00] shadash: and don't you think that all cable boxes should have a firewire port
[14:52:00] Beirdo: no
[14:52:00] juski: most people wouldn't know what to do with them
[14:52:00] juski: they'd be plugging their camcorders into them & all sorts
[14:52:00] shadash: maybe it's because they haven't been sued is the reason it's not there
[14:52:00] Beirdo: I think that if you ask for one, the cable company should provide one without a hassle, just as the FCC mandates

[14:53:00] Beirdo: most people will never use firewire, WTF should we have it on ALL cable boxes for?
[14:53:00] shadash: just saying... Lawyers aren't all bad
[14:53:00] Beirdo: only the people who want it should have it
[14:53:00] shadash: if it's a law they should follow it

[14:54:00] juski: so they take the cheaper option
[14:54:00] juski: all cable boxes should have built in features like Mythtv, only more so... and.. and ... and...
[14:54:00] shadash: Lawyers interpret the rules. The the rules are broken that's the problem
[14:54:00] juski: but they don't, so we have to provide the features
[14:55:00] Beirdo: lawyers are the scum of the earth
[14:55:00] juski: I couldn't see myself making a living by trying to prove a murderer is innocent
[14:55:00] juski: when they're blatantly _not_ innocent
[14:55:00] shadash: It's is a customer request thing then that's fine
[14:55:00] Beirdo: they may occasionally be a necessary evil, but they are scum in general
[14:55:00] scopeuk: dont know if its the smae in the us but iff a client admits guilt to a lawyer in the uk the cant legaly defend them

[15:10:00] juski: I doubt it's overheating the card doing 2D blits

[15:37:00] Z-Morek: my problem is that while I am able to run irw and have all the configurations in the right places... no dice... myth doesn't like it
[15:38:00] wakko: heh that's where I got my kickname. It is on my hockey jerseys.
[15:38:00] wakko: Well, I'm pretty sure that the lircd.conf file belings in the /etc directory

[15:44:00] Z-Morek: so I'm thinking of starting everything over... keeping my recordings and such and migrating to a new distro from FC3

[15:49:00] wakko: never done that.
[15:49:00] juski: but can you? or is it all driven by the daft web page thing?
[15:50:00] wakko: yeah – the remote is expensive – but I only have one on my coffee table – and it controls EVERYTHING including my Mac (itunes) and my PS2
[15:50:00] juski: from what I've seen of the demos it looks too involved, yet not involved enough at the same time
[15:50:00] wakko: oh – macros on the 676 remote?
[15:50:00] juski:
[15:50:00] wakko: sorry – didn;t understand
[15:51:00] juski: no macros on the OFA-6 that are of any use though
[15:51:00] wakko: macros are easy. The process is action based – not component based. So you "watch a movie" in stead of turning on TV, DVD, reciever
[15:51:00] juski: wakko: sounds a little too over-simplified
[15:51:00] wakko: it programs the actiosn for you.
[15:51:00] wakko: it is not – I was amazed.
[15:51:00] wakko: it also learns IR through the front of the remote
[15:51:00] sphing: wakko: thats amazing
[15:52:00] juski: watching a movie for me is generally selecting a mythvideo item
[15:52:00] scopeuk: lol im sure winter olimpics jsut said russia were european
[15:52:00] wakko: also, they have live support. That's how I added support for my USB IR reciever on my mac

[15:55:00] scopeuk: what do you normaly use
[15:55:00] Z-Morek: currently I use fc3
[15:55:00] scopeuk: then stick with it
[15:55:00] Z-Morek: but I'm looking to start everything over from scratch
[15:56:00] praet: ive used fc4 no problem
[15:56:00] Z-Morek: and perhaps it was just the packages I chose to install
[15:56:00] Z-Morek: but it seems bloated to me
[15:57:00] Z-Morek: I run apt-get upgrade and there's stuff I don't even touch
[15:57:00] Z-Morek: that's getting upgraded

[15:59:00] juski: i'd probably go for a kameleon now though
[15:59:00] juski: glows in the dark :-)
[15:59:00] juski: keys are nice & chunky with a good positive action too – and the function LED flashes when you press the keys
[16:00:00] juski: aaaand it's totally reprogrammable with some PC nifty software (jp1 remote thingy)
[16:00:00] praet: interesting
[16:00:00] juski: learn a remote code with irrecord & emulate it on the remote.. complicated but possible
[16:01:00] praet: the kameleon line is neat too
[16:01:00] juski: nobody had a working code set for my samsung cable box, but I used irrecord & turned it into RC-5 hex codes

[16:05:00] juski: I'd have a navigator if it could control my cable box, amp & TV.. but all they can do is basic TV functions
[16:05:00] Dibblah: Uhuh? Tell that to mine.
[16:06:00] juski: can it not even do TV on/off/up/down ?
[16:06:00] Dibblah: Of course, I have an lirc transmitter that 'echos' stuff th the real device.
[16:06:00] juski: that's a bit gash
[16:06:00] Dibblah: No – It does TV on / off / up / down / numbers...
[16:06:00] Dibblah: Depending on the TV remote set.

[16:13:00] praet: juski, cant you tweak it
[16:13:00] juski: nope
[16:14:00] juski: overscan is either on or off

[16:20:00] juski: take it outta there if it's there
[16:21:00] juski: aha... mebbe put it in the lircd init script...
[16:21:00] juski: that's what loads the lirc-serial module isn't it?
[16:21:00] Jasper: hmm
[16:21:00] dev-: mmm coco puffs
[16:21:00] Jasper: dunno.,..but it tries to initialise it before it can..
[16:22:00] juski: I can't remember how to initialise lirc...
[16:22:00] dev-: modules get loaded before init scripts get ran
[16:22:00] juski: even in lirc's case?
[16:22:00] wakko: are there alternatives to lirc?
[16:22:00] dev-: either you take it out of autoload and load the module manually, or fix the problem :D

[16:23:00] dev-: a 1 off that will cause you the problem again later when you upgrade hehe
[16:23:00] Jasper: yup
[16:23:00] dev-: er, remove it. heh not remote.
[16:23:00] Jasper: hmm
[16:23:00] Jasper: this looks better
[16:24:00] Jasper: but now I get start-stop-deamon: stat /usr/sbin/lircd no such file or directory
[16:24:00] juski: or make your own init script ;-)
[16:24:00] Jasper: I think it's still there from the emerge

[16:26:00] Jasper: and when I manually compiled it, it worked fine
[16:27:00] juski: are lirc_opts documented anywhere apart from in the ebuild files themselves?
[16:28:00] juski: basic question: or can you use emerge so show you what the options are?
[16:28:00] Jasper: prolly
[16:28:00] Jasper: emerge -pv
[16:28:00] Jasper: and see what's 0
[16:28:00] Jasper: -
[16:28:00] Jasper: :P
[16:28:00] dev-: lirc_opts are just configure options for lirc
[16:28:00] dev-: so they're documented in lircs docs basically hehe

[16:30:00] Jasper: yeah I got a dev/lirc/0
[16:30:00] Jasper: but why did it change after the reboot ? :P
[16:30:00] dev-: because you didnt hup or restart lircd before you rebooted?
[16:30:00] Jasper: prolly
[16:30:00] dev-: or it reloaded a newly compiled module that wasnt loaded before, rather
[16:31:00] dev-: since lircd doesnt create the device, the kernel module does.
[16:31:00] Jasper: but it's using /dev/lirc
[16:31:00] Jasper: ah
[16:31:00] dev-: thats not gonna work now is it? :)

[16:38:00] praet: aslo check permissions on the lircd

[16:44:00] Jasper: I had lirc working before I Decided to emerge mythtv with lirc and go to bed
[16:44:00] Jasper: and having lirc emerge over my old installation
[16:44:00] Jasper: not really nice that was

[16:47:00] juski: and prolly cp – lol
[16:47:00] Dibblah: Oh. And Myth.
[16:47:00] Jasper: could it be that irrecord uses a different config?
[16:48:00] juski: you can tell irrecord what device to use
[16:48:00] Jasper: and still be trying to connect to the old device?
[16:48:00] juski: irrecord -d isn't it?
[16:48:00] juski: e.g. irrecord -d /dev/lirc/0
[16:48:00] Jasper: hmm
[16:48:00] Jasper: yeah that works now
[16:48:00] Jasper: so how do I select mythtv to work with that toot :P
[16:49:00] juski: you changed that conf.d/lircd file yet?
[16:49:00] Jasper: yea
[16:49:00] wakko: is apt-get part of fc4? I see references to it inJarod's guide, but I get an error command not found.
[16:49:00] juski: I think you can start the lircd daemon without its init script
[16:49:00] Dibblah: <windows>Did you reboot?</windows> ;)
[16:49:00] dev-: haha
[16:50:00] juski: very very hacky though

[16:50:00] wakko: ?
[16:50:00] dev-: debians a great distro
[16:50:00] epictetus: a few issues i have with debian and myth:
[16:50:00] dev-: myth is not a distro
[16:51:00] stuarta: Z-Morek: wouldn't use anything else.
[16:51:00] Dibblah: Debian's for wimps without compile-farms ;)
[16:51:00] epictetus: 1. No up-to-date lirc package available in sarge or sid
[16:51:00] dev-: and if idiots were planes, gentoo would be the airport
[16:51:00] ivor: Dibblah: I can't imagine anyone wouldn't have a compile rack.... surely?
[16:51:00] Z-Morek: I'm currently running fc3
[16:52:00] epictetus: 2. A number of other libraries/etc not available as packages
[16:52:00] juski: and folks wonder why linux hasn't yet overtaken windows on desktops ...
[16:52:00] Z-Morek: but it just feels bloated to me... most likely because I installed way too many packages initially
[16:52:00] ivor: juski: hasn't it? oh I thought it did a while ago.
[16:52:00] dev-: i dont wonder at all. linux takes some clue to use. osx does a pretty good job of allowing morons to use a unix based os. but still, it takes a little bit of clue
[16:52:00] dev-: windows takes no clue.
[16:53:00] Z-Morek: and going from windows to linux has been a jump for me
[16:53:00] wakko: actually, OS X is for users, Linux is for engineers.
[16:53:00] epictetus: the main thing with myth is that having a bleeding-edge distro can really help, just because a number of things it does can utilize bleeding-edge functionality
[16:53:00] Beirdo: windows REQUIRES you to have no clue
[16:53:00] wakko: both have positive uses.
[16:53:00] ** laga actually wonders why he keeps recompiling all his packages on his new gentoo install *shrug* **
[16:53:00] dev-: wakko: if you decide to do anything, hrm, good, with osx, you still need to open a console and modify things
[16:53:00] wakko: heh – but I agree withtthe windows sentiment
[16:53:00] Z-Morek: I started off easy with packages
[16:53:00] Beirdo: laga: because you're being a gentool ;)
[16:53:00] Z-Morek: I want to dive in now
[16:53:00] laga: Beirdo: hehe :)
[16:53:00] juski: the more you know, the less you feel able to do with windows, I agree
[16:53:00] dev-: half the windows users i know cant even type. so that rules them out
[16:53:00] wakko: not true – I use OS X for design, vudei, and 3D modeling/animation. Linux is simply not there yet.
[16:53:00] laga: Beirdo: i emerged gcc like 8 times in 2 days. that's not bad, huh? :)
[16:54:00] wakko: video (typing too fast)
[16:54:00] Beirdo: geez, that's just lame
[16:54:00] Beirdo: hehe
[16:54:00] Z-Morek: I figure I should switch up distros to something less noobish
[16:54:00] juski: "help! my cappy teevee cardy not worky worky. i clickd on the thing but it not worky"
[16:54:00] Z-Morek: I figure what's less noobish than debian
[16:54:00] ivor: juski: hehe.. anyway... it's 5 to 5... shouldn't you be heading home?
[16:54:00] juski: laga: so stop emerging everything with -u ;-)
[16:55:00] juski: I should be heading home
[16:55:00] juski: yeh
[16:55:00] epictetus: Z-Morek: also, do you use kernels that come with distributions?

[16:55:00] epictetus: Z-Morek: or compile your own..
[16:55:00] Z-Morek: :-( distro....
[16:55:00] juski: nasa: network cables are a good option
[16:55:00] dev-: lol
[16:55:00] Beirdo: I want steak!
[16:55:00] epictetus: Z-Morek: because there can be vast hardware-support differences if you are using a debian kernel. depending on what hardware is in your machine
[16:55:00] ** nasa asked for that **
[16:55:00] Z-Morek: should I dive in THAT deep to compile kernels?
[16:55:00] Beirdo: damn this liquid diet
[16:55:00] epictetus: Compiling a kernel isn't really hard at all

[16:56:00] dev-: every distro runs the same kernel, you wont have better hardware support in gentoo than you do in debian.
[16:56:00] Beirdo: beer is not allowed with the pain killers

[16:56:00] Beirdo: if I was allowed booze, I'd be steadily lowering my scotch supply
[16:56:00] dev-: Beirdo: just 'recommended' not to drink with pain killers, but it sure makes them a hellava lot more fun
[16:56:00] ** ivor catches it, downs it, burps and goes hunting for crisps. **
[16:57:00] Z-Morek: epictetus: I assume there's plentiful guides out there to guide me thru compiling a kernel
[16:57:00] Beirdo: no, it KILLS your liver
[16:57:00] wakko: If I was allowed booze, I'd probably understand Linux better.
[16:57:00] Beirdo: and I like mine to stay working
[16:57:00] Beirdo: thanks though :)
[16:57:00] dev-: Beirdo: depends on the amount of acetometiphin you're taking and the amount of liquor you're drinking
[16:57:00] laga: wakko: i tried it, didn't help
[16:57:00] Z-Morek: but would it pay off in the end to go thru all of that instead of using packages on fc3
[16:57:00] dev-: Beirdo: if you keep the aceo to 2grams max in the day, you can definitely have a couple swigs of scotch
[16:57:00] juski: Linux is 'free' as in 'beer'. totally understand that now

[16:58:00] ivor: LOL
[16:58:00] wakko: Yes, Linux is bad for your liver.
[16:58:00] dev-: its like unix, if you know what you're doing you wont run into problems
[16:58:00] splat1 is now known as splAt1
[16:58:00] dev-: its like unix, if you dont knwo what you're doing, you'll hose your shit
[16:58:00] dev-: aceto is what fucks up your liver
[16:58:00] Beirdo: bah
[16:58:00] splAt1 is now known as splat1
[16:58:00] dev-: you're allowed 4grams a day
[16:59:00] ivor: ok hands up anyone who gives a shit?
[16:59:00] dev-: you can replace aceto for liquor, but its about moderation and not about drinking 12 beers and takeing 3.5grams of aceto — thats bad.
[16:59:00] Beirdo: anyways...
[16:59:00] juski: for the sake of a week or so not boozing, it's not worth the risk :)
[16:59:00] dev-: ivor — just as much as who gives a shit if your x isnt working, since this isnt a #fix_your_x_because_you're_a_noob channel.

[17:31:00] wakko: configure
[17:31:00] Chutt: if you think that, you're not 'adept'.

[17:32:00] wakko: I tried knoppmyth, it never worked really.

[17:32:00] Z-Morek: better off doing the dirty work yourself
[17:33:00] wakko: I guess I love the concept of MythTV, I really do. But it's very much a tool only for those who are truly comfortable behind a command line interface.

[17:40:00] Z-Morek: done that
[17:40:00] sphing: wakko how in the world did you set it up the first time.. without knowing how to use pipe

[17:41:00] Z-Morek: and here I sit broken hearted
[17:41:00] Z-Morek: tried to upgrade and then restarted
[17:41:00] dev-: heh
[17:41:00] dev-: :: joins the blank stare ::
[17:41:00] sphing: Z-Morek: whats the problem
[17:41:00] wakko: Jarod's guide is ALMOST enough to get things runnign without being a CS major.
[17:41:00] sphing: ok this sucks
[17:41:00] Z-Morek: long story short
[17:41:00] Z-Morek: lirc is broken AGAIN
[17:41:00] dev-: lol you dont have to be a cs major to learn linux or be able to use it — you have to like to read, know how to read, and understand things you've read
[17:41:00] Z-Morek: and I don't knwo how I broke it
[17:42:00] sphing: i'm compiling on my server... so now the diskless frontends are CRAWLING
[17:42:00] Dibblah: Upgraded your kernel?
[17:42:00] Z-Morek: nope
[17:42:00] Z-Morek: I've upgraded kernel in the past

[17:42:00] Z-Morek: had to get new kernel modules
[17:42:00] Z-Morek: been down that road
[17:42:00] wakko: Dev: I appreciate that – I really do. I have a BSD guru pal who says the same thing.
[17:42:00] Dibblah: Uhuh. But you need to recompile the lirc modules.
[17:42:00] Z-Morek: I use packages
[17:42:00] wakko: it looks like the lirc_serial module is not loaded.
[17:42:00] Z-Morek: I TRIED to compile from source on my own failed miserably
[17:43:00] dev-: i just dont see how you will be able to get myth working if you dont even know the operating system its supposed to run on ;/
[17:43:00] Z-Morek: what better way to learn linux :-P
[17:43:00] seme|Home: is it possible to rip an entire dvd as is... instead of each title?
[17:43:00] seme|Home: with the menu's etc
[17:43:00] seme|Home: like an iso rip
[17:43:00] dev-: learning it, sure, but asking every question in here and having answeres told for you, is not learning
[17:43:00] wakko: Well, it seems to me that Linux is an attempt at putting a GUI face on a powerful unix OS.
[17:43:00] dev-: its 'following directions'
[17:43:00] wakko: I may be off there, but that's the marketing
[17:43:00] Z-Morek: but after following enough directions, you get a sense of what's going on
[17:44:00] Z-Morek: for instance
[17:44:00] dev-: wakko: thats a good definition of osx, actually
[17:44:00] wakko: Well, I do learn from asking questions.
[17:44:00] Beirdo: why do people keep saying Linux is the GUI crap that runs on top of Linux?
[17:44:00] Z-Morek: from absoutely NO knowledge of unix
[17:44:00] wakko: heh – I agree with the OS X reference.
[17:44:00] Beirdo: Linux is the kernel and basic OS
[17:44:00] Z-Morek: I followed directions
[17:44:00] dev-: Beirdo: some fucking howto must say that.
[17:44:00] wakko: I wish I could run Myth on OS X – I'd buy a G5 for it.
[17:44:00] Beirdo: what you run on it is your busines

[17:44:00] Chutt: myth runs on osx.
[17:44:00] Beirdo: you CAN run the frontend on OSX
[17:44:00] wakko: er, back end, that is
[17:44:00] Z-Morek: and know I vaguely know my way around my linux rig
[17:44:00] wakko: sorry
[17:45:00] Beirdo: backend, no. not until someone ports v4l to OSX :)
[17:45:00] Chutt: backend runs with firewire.
[17:45:00] Beirdo: heheh
[17:45:00] wakko: I'm not saying that Linux is GUI only – I realize that it is also the kernel and all associated tech under the GUI
[17:45:00] Beirdo: ahh, firewire, true
[17:45:00] dev-: wakko: linux is "all associated tech" under the gui
[17:45:00] dev-: "linux" is a kernel.
[17:45:00] Dibblah: Linux... Gui... Only. Uhuh.
[17:46:00] Beirdo: I run many Linux machines with no GUI
[17:46:00] wakko: but if we wanted a solid non-gui CLI, wouldn't we all use BSD?
[17:46:00] Beirdo: no
[17:46:00] dev-: bsd is better than linux, yes
[17:46:00] dev-: :)))
[17:46:00] wakko: I heard that's VERY stable (not that I'd know)
[17:46:00] Beirdo: I'd go for Solaris before BSD
[17:46:00] dev-: x86 server architecture, bsd
[17:46:00] wakko: Solaris requires specific hardware, no?
[17:46:00] dev-: though x86 server is an oxymoron
[17:47:00] Beirdo: not really
[17:47:00] Dibblah: Nope.
[17:47:00] rav3r: coochan, u around?
[17:47:00] dev-: thre is x86 solaris, but its poop
[17:47:00] dev-: you would never ever use it in production
[17:47:00] seme|Home: anyone here ripping iso's of their dvd's or does everyone just rip each title?
[17:47:00] wakko: I see.
[17:47:00] Beirdo: once again, not really, dev-
[17:47:00] coochan: hup?
[17:47:00] Chutt: seme|Home, the 'iso' option in mythdvd does just that.
[17:47:00] coochan: rav3r: heyhey
[17:47:00] coochan: just got up
[17:47:00] seme|Home: aah
[17:47:00] dev-: show me one place that uses x86 solaris in production — bet you cant
[17:47:00] wakko: Sun Micro – Iwas there last week.
[17:47:00] wakko: I do web work for them
[17:47:00] Beirdo: we used to
[17:48:00] dev-: x86 hardware just isnt as good as sparc, what happens when it hardlocks
[17:48:00] Beirdo: anyways, it's all moot
[17:48:00] dev-: you cant serial console into openboot and diagnose reboot
[17:48:00] Beirdo: mythtv is for Linux :)
[17:48:00] wakko: like the idea of running unix on my x86 hardware. It's inexpensive, and easily obtainable.
[17:48:00] wakko: yeah – moot
[17:48:00] seme|Home: chutt: where in the MythTV > Utilities & Settings > Settings > DVD Settings tab?
[17:48:00] dev-: you wouldnt use solaris on x86 in production (unless you're sun trying to prove something) just like you wouldnt use redhat on sparc in production
[17:48:00] dev-: i do this for a living, heh
[17:49:00] coochan: dev-: or windows on an alpha ?
[17:49:00] Chutt: err, why would it be in there?
[17:49:00] coochan: dev-: yah, slowaris x86 sucks
[17:49:00] wakko: Dev: I agree – but they have it running. Probably to prove something, as you say.
[17:49:00] Beirdo: dev-, so do I. that's beside the point.
[17:49:00] dev-: dont have any experience with alpha, sorry
[17:49:00] dev-: bsd is the best x86 server (again, oxymoron) os imho :)
[17:49:00] seme|Home: chutt: not sure... I don't have a separate section for mythdvd just the dvd settings portion of the settings tab
[17:49:00] dev-: linux emu runs so fast these days you can hardly tell a difference.
[17:49:00] coochan: well, which *bsd ?
[17:49:00] wakko: My BSD pal is into security for hospitals, and he swears by BSD.
[17:49:00] dev-: freebsd for applications, openbsd for bastions/gateways
[17:49:00] Beirdo: whatever. run linux and stop emulating it
[17:50:00] wakko: I don;t know which flavor
[17:50:00] seme|Home: is mythdvd different than the dvd portion included in mythtv?
[17:50:00] dev-: netbsd is looking awesome these days tho
[17:50:00] coochan: seme|Home: same thing
[17:50:00] coochan: dev-: what do you need? I gotta work...
[17:50:00] coochan: sorry
[17:50:00] dev-: i need nuttin. im just talkin

[17:50:00] dev-: np
[17:50:00] coochan: rav3r: whatcha need?
[17:50:00] wakko: Anyway, I'm gonna keep trying to get this working. thanks for all of your help – really.
[17:51:00] wakko: I have 1 week to get it running before I start a new job.
[17:51:00] laga: seme|Home: what do you mean, dvd portion included in mythtv? you mean when it says 'dvd support' in the output of ./configure, right?
[17:52:00] seme|Home: yeah I included dvd support
[17:52:00] laga: seme|Home: well, the stuff in configure just enables dvd playback support for mythtv's internal player which can be used with mythdvd then.

[17:55:00] Dibblah: Yup. I use mine as multiple space heaters.
[17:55:00] wakko: hhahahahaaaaaa
[17:55:00] epictetus: i use mine as a day to day machine, word processing, etc

[18:13:00] coochan: sometimes there are internal serial ports on the board

[18:17:00] coochan: Jasper: in 0.19 ?
[18:17:00] Jasper: the problem is...I hav eno control over mplayer whatsoever when it's loaded from mythtv
[18:17:00] Jasper: yea coochan
[18:17:00] coochan: I just started using 0.19
[18:18:00] coochan: I have to set the DVD player command to, what 'INTERNAL' or 'internal' ?

[18:18:00] Jasper: it laggs so hard
[18:18:00] Jasper: on internal

[18:18:00] Jasper: ..
[18:18:00] coochan: Jasper: do you uyse MythVideo also?
[18:19:00] coochan: when you say 'no control over mplayer' — are you trying to control with remote?
[18:19:00] Jasper: no
[18:19:00] coochan: rav3r: it really doesn't like those kernel args there

[18:20:00] Jasper: also not
[18:20:00] Jasper: but the internal player seams to be messing up for some reason
[18:20:00] Jasper: compared to mplayer
[18:21:00] dev-: should use xine for playing dvds, menu support. though ive had problems with some dvds
[18:21:00] dev-: but its worth it, menu support is nice.
[18:21:00] Jasper: hmm dev- but what's wrong with the internal player
[18:21:00] Jasper: I mean it can play my recordings just fine...but dvd..
[18:21:00] Dibblah: Why are all these people reporting problems on Gentoo?

[18:23:00] dev-: here's a secret. gentoo, debian, redhat, slackware, ubuntu, they're all the 'same shit' with different topping.
[18:23:00] coochan: I even have packages for it
[18:23:00] Jasper: how did you get those?
[18:23:00] rav3r: lirc stuff?
[18:24:00] coochan: I built them
[18:24:00] Jasper: from mirillat?
[18:24:00] coochan: you want?
[18:24:00] Jasper: ah
[18:24:00] Jasper: no
[18:24:00] Jasper: am perfectly fine on gentoo
[18:24:00] Jasper: :P
[18:24:00] coochan: yah, I'm using the marriat sources but I ported
[18:24:00] Jasper: yeah
[18:24:00] Jasper: he only builds unstable I believe
[18:24:00] coochan: because I'm hard core
[18:24:00] coochan: no
[18:24:00] Jasper: hmm
[18:24:00] coochan: he just hasn't gotten around to it.. it's pretty new
[18:24:00] Jasper: my internal player doesn't even play a video ?
[18:25:00] Jasper: what do you mean coochan ?
[18:25:00] rav3r: coochan, what lirc stuff?
[18:25:00] coochan: for me the internal dvd mplayer works but it doesn't seek
[18:25:00] Jasper: he never had any for 0.18 either
[18:25:00] coochan: rav3r: the lines you added to modprobe.conf, I need to see them
[18:25:00] coochan: Jasper: wrong
[18:25:00] coochan: he recently added them
[18:25:00] Jasper: like recently in 1 week?
[18:25:00] coochan: something like that
[18:25:00] Jasper: ah K
[18:25:00] Jasper: I tried it 3 weeks ago
[18:25:00] Jasper: there was nothing back then
[18:26:00] Jasper: tried setting it up
[18:26:00] Jasper: but I got so many missing perl stuff
[18:26:00] coochan: ?
[18:26:00] Jasper: don't ask why...since I don't know :P
[18:26:00] coochan: what in myth uses perl except for some contrib scripts, that's wierd
[18:26:00] rav3r: this is what i added http://pastebin.ca/42231
[18:26:00] coochan: oh, probably debconf was broken for you
[18:26:00] Jasper: when was that?
[18:27:00] Dibblah: Jasper: Are you using pvr350 / DVB?
[18:27:00] Jasper: pvr500
[18:27:00] coochan: rav3r: lets see
[18:27:00] Dibblah: And you have no problems with live TV?
[18:27:00] Jasper: no?
[18:27:00] coochan: rav3r: you can add on to the paste you did before isntead of making a new one...
[18:27:00] Jasper: why?
[18:27:00] Jasper: you're having problems?
[18:27:00] Dibblah: No – But lots of other gentoo people appear to be.
[18:28:00] Dibblah: Are you using the 0.19 ebuild?
[18:28:00] rav3r: i'll do that in the future
[18:28:00] Jasper: I don't :P
[18:28:00] Jasper: yes
[18:28:00] dev-: Dibblah: problems with livetv?
[18:28:00] coochan: rav3r: ok, comment out all those lines
[18:28:00] Dibblah: Oh. Bugger. It's not that, then.
[18:28:00] coochan: rav3r: you can do them all by hand
[18:28:00] Jasper: what kinda problems Dibblah ?
[18:28:00] Dibblah: Not for me – Just for lots of others.
[18:28:00] coochan: rav3r: first do the setserial line: '/bin/setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none'
[18:28:00] Jasper: did they forget to give userrights to mythtv user for mysql, video and audio?
[18:28:00] Dibblah: I'm not sure if Isaac's just fixed it, though.
[18:28:00] rav3r: this is at #, not in the modprobe?
[18:29:00] Jasper: I had a problem with watching livetv
[18:29:00] coochan: rav3r: huh?
[18:29:00] Jasper: but that was because of user rights
[18:29:00] dev-: Dibblah: ah the livetv program switching
[18:29:00] coochan: rav3r: comment out all those modprobe lines, and don't add any new ones
[18:29:00] rav3r: you mean /bin/setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none at command line?
[18:29:00] Jasper: why isn't this freaking internal player working :(
[18:29:00] coochan: right
[18:29:00] rav3r: gotcha
[18:29:00] Chutt: Dibblah, i'm just fixing theoretical things
[18:29:00] Chutt: debugging by inspection
[18:29:00] coochan: Jasper: probably because it's new in 0.19 ?
[18:29:00] Chutt: except for tom lichti's stuff, since he actually posted decent logs
[18:30:00] Jasper: I heard it was also in 0.18
[18:30:00] Jasper: someone said
[18:30:00] rav3r: ok, i /bin/setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none
[18:30:00] Jasper: rav3r what distro?
[18:30:00] rav3r: fedroa c4
[18:30:00] coochan: Jasper: people say a lot of lies or stupid things
[18:30:00] coochan: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/MythDVD says new in 0.19
[18:31:00] coochan: rav3r: so that went ok?

[18:31:00] GreyFoxx: I've used it with MythVideo for a long time
[18:32:00] coochan: GreyFoxx: of course
[18:32:00] Chutt: it didn't work for dvds
[18:32:00] Chutt: 19 doesn't, really
[18:32:00] coochan: or for playing back recordings (duh?)
[18:32:00] Jasper: GreyFoxx any ideas why it won't load any of my xvids?
[18:32:00] rav3r: ? /sbin/modprobe ledxmit_dev ?
[18:32:00] coochan: rav3r: huh?
[18:32:00] GreyFoxx: Jasper: My only suggest would be to look at the output of the frontend
[18:32:00] Jasper: lol
[18:32:00] Jasper: internal command not found
[18:32:00] Jasper: nice.
[18:32:00] Jasper: :P
[18:32:00] rav3r: modprobe ledxmit_dev said command not found...
[18:32:00] Chutt: it's Internal
[18:32:00] Chutt: not internal.
[18:32:00] coochan: ah, that explains it
[18:32:00] Jasper: ah
[18:32:00] Jasper: :P
[18:32:00] GreyFoxx: Try setting it to "Internal" with a Capital I
[18:33:00] Chutt: like the help text says.
[18:33:00] Jasper: good
[18:33:00] Jasper: :P
[18:33:00] coochan: GreyFoxx: on mine, I set to 'internal' (no capital) and it used the internal player
[18:33:00] Yellow-Snow: hey guys.. i have a question.. i hooked up my box to this 60inch sorta old tv.. and well i see waves across the screen sorta.. how come? the freq or what? how do fix it?
[18:33:00] Jasper: yeah
[18:33:00] coochan: (as documented)
[18:33:00] Jasper: it's kinda funny
[18:33:00] Jasper: since mythdvd uses internal
[18:33:00] GreyFoxx: last I looked at the code I didn't see it to do a case insensitive match, but *shrug*
[18:33:00] rav3r: modprobe ledxmit_dev said command not found, i was asking if it should be /sbin/modprobe ledxmit_dev
[18:33:00] coochan: Yellow-Snow: it could be a lot of reasons
[18:33:00] Jasper: without capital i
[18:33:00] GreyFoxx: I've always used Internal and it worked :)
[18:33:00] coochan: rav3r: yah that's fine
[18:34:00] Yellow-Snow: what do u think it is?
[18:34:00] coochan: GreyFoxx: whack
[18:34:00] wakko: I just posted a request for in-person help to get my MythTV working for $100 on the email list.
[18:34:00] wakko: heh
[18:34:00] wakko: we'll see. . .
[18:34:00] dev-: lol
[18:34:00] Jasper: GreyFoxx mythdvd uses internal....so I though..prolly same for mythvideo :P
[18:34:00] coochan: wakko: where you located?
[18:34:00] Dibblah: Chutt: Have you seen any reports of live problems from people not on gentoo?
[18:34:00] wakko: San Jose, CA
[18:34:00] coochan: Jasper: 'internal' works for me
[18:34:00] dev-: i would so do it if i lived near there
[18:34:00] Chutt: Dibblah, i haven't been paying attention.
[18:34:00] coochan: so wierd
[18:34:00] Dibblah: Okay.
[18:34:00] coochan: anyhow
[18:34:00] dev-: i live on the east coast tho heh.
[18:34:00] Chutt: most of them don't even mention what type of capture card they're using, or if they're a split front/backend
[18:35:00] coochan: yah for the right coast!
[18:35:00] wakko: I'd be willing to pay a bit less for fixing via ssh, but I'll see where the email goes first
[18:35:00] Jasper: maybe internal in mythdvd is causing the major lagg on the internal player...
[18:35:00] Jasper: and I should change it to Internal
[18:35:00] dev-: chutt i will try svn and if i still have livetv switching show problems, tell me what information you want and you'll have it.
[18:35:00] Jasper: :P
[18:35:00] dev-: ;p
[18:35:00] coochan: I get a lot of wierd errors

[18:36:00] wakko: Dev: U talking to me?

[18:48:00] gremlin484: Hey all, I'm getting a "Database Setup Error" with mythweb. My .htaccess files and conf.php files appear to be set up correctly. i've followed the documentation, and googled for possible solutions, but without luck. Anyone have any ideas?
[18:49:00] redline-: in http.conf add in all the directives instead of just ALL
[18:49:00] coochan: rav3r: that's my best guess right now
[18:50:00] Dibblah: gremlin: Did you follow the bit about AllowOverride?

[18:51:00] coochan: redline-: that's redundant... 'AllowOverride All' is what you need

[18:52:00] coochan: I put an explicit error on my .htaccess file, like, just a line with 'asdfg'
[18:52:00] dev-: unless allowverride is set, but dibblah, if you have an .htaccess in your directory and pull up content in it and allowverride isnt set correctly, you get an internal server error, error 500, not an error message from the php content in the directory :)

[18:53:00] redline-: yes mine is totally unsecure right now but.... working
[18:54:00] coochan: redline-: that's very weird, are you sure that if you just change that one line, hup apache (or apache2), it doesn't work?
[18:54:00] coochan: dev-: it depends...
[18:54:00] redline-: yeap drove me nuts for like 5 days as i stared at the line knowing it was correct
[18:54:00] coochan: dev-: I got a 'directory listing denied' error until I got the <Directory ...> right
[18:55:00] redline-: I add all directives and removed the ALL and it worked
[18:55:00] redline-: then I added the ALL back and it still worked and I just never removed it

[19:12:00] coochan: rav3r: its sayhin gyou need to do :
[19:12:00] Dibblah: Something changed in 2.6.14+
[19:12:00] coochan: setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none
[19:12:00] coochan: Dibblah: that dmesg output is deceptive

[19:13:00] coochan: Dibblah: he's just recompiled the new lirc, which definately works with 2.6.15 (I use it)
[19:13:00] coochan: Dibblah: I know, that's old
[19:13:00] Dibblah: Ah.
[19:13:00] coochan: the dmesg output is showing the old err then the new one below
[19:13:00] Dibblah: Cool. Got it.
[19:13:00] rav3r: ok, so i setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none ?
[19:13:00] coochan: rav3r: oh, wait a sec...
[19:13:00] coochan: first do this:
[19:14:00] coochan: /sbin/modprobe -r ledxmit_serial
[19:14:00] coochan: /sbin/modprobe -r ledxmit_dev
[19:14:00] rav3r: do you want me to comment out those lines in the modprobe again first?
[19:14:00] coochan: I don't want you using ledxmit_dev from one ver of lirc and ledxmit_serial from another
[19:14:00] rav3r: or does it matter?
[19:14:00] coochan: rav3r: lets leave it ...
[19:14:00] rav3r: k
[19:14:00] coochan: it seems to work :)
[19:15:00] rav3r: ok, /sbin/modprobe -r ledxmit_serial i got those warnings, ignoring bad line...
[19:15:00] coochan: oh?
[19:15:00] coochan: better comment out those lines then
[19:16:00] coochan: lirc shoulnd't be this hard should it?
[19:16:00] rav3r: no
[19:16:00] rav3r: but it's linux
[19:16:00] rav3r: and im, well, me
[19:16:00] coochan: making it worse, there were kernel chagnes in recent kernels that made things hard
[19:16:00] Dibblah: It's not – If the user is using a kernel version that matches.
[19:16:00] coochan: I struggled with lirc too
[19:16:00] coochan: and I've been using linux since Dibblah was in short pants
[19:16:00] rav3r: ok, just /sbin/modprobe -r ledxmit_dev with no prob
[19:16:00] coochan: good
[19:16:00] coochan: soldier on
[19:17:00] coochan: Dibblah: I am glad lirc folks released 0.8.0
[19:17:00] coochan: I had had to run a pre-release for a while

[19:17:00] yaaar: just got mythtv (along with the ivtv drivers for my pvr-150) installed on this ubuntu machine, and it seems to be working ok. but i can only run it as the user 'mythtv' that was automatically created when i installed. I'd rather run it as my normal user, but that gives me mysql errors. anybody know what that's about?
[19:17:00] yaaar: also....is there any way to run it in a window, rather than fullscreen?
[19:17:00] coochan: yaaar: there's a setting for that, yes
[19:18:00] yaaar: coochan: for the latter?
[19:18:00] coochan: yes
[19:18:00] yaaar: ok, i'll look around for it. thanks
[19:18:00] coochan: for the former, make sure you're in the mythtv group
[19:18:00] rav3r: '/sbin/lsmod | grep ledxmit returned nothing
[19:18:00] coochan: works for me
[19:18:00] coochan: rav3r: good, you'r fully unloaded
[19:18:00] dev-: yaaar: the mysql errors are probably coming from the absense of a ~/.mythtv/mysql.txt

[19:20:00] coochan: yaaar: try that, yah
[19:20:00] coochan: rav3r: hmm, that's bad
[19:20:00] coochan: rav3r: and with 'uart none' ?
[19:20:00] dev-: coochan: i believe in .19 if you dont have a ~/.mythtv/mysql.txt file it will look in /etc/mythtv
[19:21:00] yaaar: dev-: coochan: er, my user does have a mysql.txt file, but the mythtv user doesn't.
[19:21:00] dev-: /etc/mythtv/.mythtv/mysql.txt actually heh
[19:21:00] coochan: rav3r: oh wait, that's ok
[19:21:00] rav3r: setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none ?
[19:21:00] coochan: rav3r: yes
[19:21:00] yaaar: also, i'm on .18
[19:21:00] yaaar: it was the version ubuntu had packages
[19:21:00] coochan: yaaar: I used that too..
[19:22:00] coochan: yaaar: I think that uses /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt

[19:22:00] coochan: rav3r: that's good
[19:23:00] coochan: rav3r: now, modprobe them up again: modprobe ledxmit_dev
[19:23:00] Achew22: coochan, would that install .19 over my .18?
[19:23:00] coochan: rav3r: then 'modprobe ledxmit_serial'
[19:23:00] coochan: Achew22: it would indeed
[19:23:00] coochan: Achew22: and it would fsck with your database and everything
[19:23:00] coochan: so be smart, be warned
[19:23:00] Achew22: so backup it first
[19:23:00] coochan: right
[19:24:00] Achew22: I'll test, but I gotta go downstairs and get the link down there
[19:24:00] Achew22: this is my windoze box

[19:25:00] coochan: Achew22: pm me what?
[19:26:00] coochan: Achew22: but go again
[19:26:00] coochan: rav3r: lets see

[19:29:00] rav3r: 'setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart none' ?
[19:29:00] coochan: you might need a number of marriat libraries and such, so after 'dpkg -i' if it fails from missing pkgs, you might have to 'apt-get -f install'

[19:43:00] Achew22: meh I can do that in a blink
[19:43:00] coochan: it should be automated in the postinst of the pkg, but I use the SVN
[19:43:00] yaaar: just got mythtv (along with the ivtv drivers for my pvr-150) installed on this ubuntu machine, and it seems to be working ok. but i can only run it as the user 'mythtv' that was automatically created when i installed.

[19:58:00] coochan: veyr mysterious
[19:59:00] coochan: yaaar: try 'mythfrontend -v database'
[19:59:00] yaaar: i don't understand why each time i run it it pre-populates the password field with that wrong value.

[19:59:00] coochan: eh? which password field?
[19:59:00] coochan: sounds like a clue
[20:00:00] yaaar: the first time i ran it i put in the mysql root password instead of the mythtv user's password (because i didn't know the latter....it was autocreated and it was later that i found the correct value in /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt) ....but after i deleted ~/.mythtv/mysql.txt and re-ran it, why does it still remember that/
[20:00:00] yaaar: ?
[20:00:00] coochan: I don' tthink you really need to run mythtv-setup ... after all, you're not changing your card or channel settings as this other user, are you?

[20:01:00] coochan: yaaar: hmm, 'dpkg-reconfigure mythtv' ... I think?
[20:01:00] yaaar: but i'm not running mythtv-setup ....i'm just running mythfrontend and it's pushing me into the db setup page
[20:01:00] coochan: yaaar: theres a debian configuration where they ask for stuff too... if that's what you meant
[20:01:00] yaaar: no
[20:01:00] coochan: but that should only be run when you change tghe pkg state

[20:02:00] yaaar: same result w/ -v database
[20:02:00] yaaar: so, you think i should run dpkg-reconfigure mythtv ?
[20:02:00] coochan: you said: "each time i run it it pre-populates the password field" ...
[20:02:00] coochan: the field where? in ~/.mythtv/mysql.txt ?
[20:03:00] yaaar: coochan: no, the field in the setup screen it pops up
[20:03:00] coochan: oh, that's in the database, not the file
[20:03:00] coochan: maybe that's the problem
[20:03:00] yaaar: ?
[20:03:00] coochan: do you have just one machine?
[20:03:00] yaaar: yeah
[20:03:00] yaaar: how can it be getting that value out of the db if it's telling me it can't connect to the db?
[20:04:00] yaaar: also, the password in ~/.mythtv/mysql.txt is correct
[20:04:00] coochan: I'm confused too
[20:04:00] coochan: I don't know.. unless it connects to the DB then connects again using the info from the db pass 1

[20:06:00] Achew22: muahahah
[20:06:00] Achew22: thats why
[20:06:00] coochan: did you try 'mysql -h localhost -p -u mythtv mythconverg'  ?
[20:06:00] Achew22: what are the hosts for each account?
[20:07:00] Achew22: coochan almost done with the 38 meg one
[20:07:00] yaaar: one is 'localhost' and one is '%'
[20:07:00] Achew22: delete the one that says localhost
[20:07:00] yaaar: coochan: that command drops me at a mysql prompt just like it should

[20:09:00] yaaar: Achew22: i have a few options for removing the user.....should i: 1)just delete the users from the priv tables 2)revoke all active privs and delete afterwards 3)delete users and revoke privs afterwards 4)drop the db's that have the same names as the users
[20:09:00] malaTG: says that both my superblocks are damaged
[20:09:00] yaaar: ?
[20:09:00] yaaar: pretty sure it's not the last one, but i'm not sure about the first three
[20:10:00] malaTG: but it says that the filesystem is clean if I do a fsck on /dev/hdb but not /mnt/jfs

[20:10:00] dev-: i doubt its the 2 user thing, but the problem sure sounds interesting
[20:10:00] yaaar: same result
[20:11:00] dev-: reason being both mysql clients are connecting through tmp socket
[20:11:00] coochan: malaTG: what is /mnt/jfs ?
[20:11:00] coochan: Achew22: oh?
[20:11:00] dev-: yaar: you tried running mythtv-setup from the mythtv user and double check info in there?

[20:18:00] yaaar: dev-: at this point running mythtv-setup does *exactly* the same thing as running mythfrontend
[20:18:00] coochan: oh joy
[20:18:00] dev-: you said mythfrontend works from the "mythtv" uid didnt you?
[20:18:00] coochan: missing dependency
[20:18:00] Achew22: yeah but libqt3-mt doesn't fix it
[20:18:00] yaaar: dev-: that is, it asks me to pick a language, then gives me the db setup page, with the values all prepopulated correctly except for the password field, which is prepopulated with the correct password for the mysql root user (which is to say *not* the correct password for the mythtv mysql user)
[20:19:00] Achew22: it wants libqt3c102-mt but thats not on the apt server
[20:19:00] yaaar: dev-: yes, mythfrontend works fine as the mythtv user
[20:19:00] dev-: so run mythtv-setup from the mythtv uid and make sure the password is set correctly
[20:19:00] coochan: Achew22: oh wow, what did I build this against?
[20:19:00] Achew22: I don't know

[20:32:00] Achew22: coochan maybe... but
[20:32:00] yaaar: dev-, so, it's getting it from someplace else

[20:32:00] yaaar: well....
[20:32:00] coochan: Achew22: oh, and you should probably dpkg --remove the pkgs you just installed...s orry!

[20:33:00] dev-: :P
[20:33:00] yaaar: i can tell you this for certain; ~/.mythtv/mysql.txt has the correct password in it, which is the same as /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt ...and when i run mythfrontend, it still drops me at db settings
[20:33:00] Puh: uhh, if mythfrontend really does scale the osd graphics every time livetv is started that could well be the slowdown i'm experiencing
[20:34:00] yaaar: and it still populates the password field in that settings page with a wrong value
[20:34:00] Achew22: coochan would that kill my system if I added the debain apt servers on a ubuntu system?
[20:34:00] coochan: Achew22: no clue, probably

[20:35:00] Achew22: coochan I have no moral issues with putting the debian oens in thre
[20:35:00] coochan: gremlin484: is it niced and still kills your itneractivity?

[20:36:00] coochan: if so, you might be hitting IO problems
[20:36:00] gremlin484: right but it's causing other things, such as ssh, vnc, apache, etc to run extremely slowly...

[20:36:00] Achew22: its easier
[20:36:00] yaaar: dev-, the only differences between ~todd/.mythtv/mysql.txt and /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt are cosmetic (i.e. comments and lines being in different places, but saying the same thing)
[20:36:00] coochan: Spunx: oy, sound

[20:37:00] dev-: yaaar: you dont have /etc/mythtv/.mythtv/mysql.txt do you?
[20:37:00] coochan: Spunx: why are you configuring myth to use OSS (alsa OSS emulation) ?
[20:37:00] Achew22: coochan: nano /etc/apt/sources.list will do it
[20:37:00] Spunx: http://dyndata.homelinux.com/myth.html <-- do you see anything strange? Do you want to know to what port on the soundcard i connected the jack from pctv pro?
[20:37:00] yaaar: dev-, i've also tried 1)removing ~todd/.mythtv/mysql.txt and 2)copying /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt to ~todd/.mythtv/mysql.txt
[20:37:00] Spunx: coochan, i don't wanna, but how else! plz help!
[20:37:00] coochan: gremlin484: are you (E)IDE ?
