[04:26:16] dscoular`: evaded, if you installed from 0.19-fixes svn and didn't give configure a custom prefix the setup.xml file should be in /usr/local/share/mythtv
[04:26:21] evaded: dscoular: I have also install that available for in apt. So now it's sure, nothings more work :-/
[04:26:56] evaded: I clean a bit, looks like i'm have try it like an desesperate
[04:27:26] evaded: dscoular: It's been of that version that i have do an install
[04:27:34] dscoular`: evaded, are you saying you installed from source and apt-get ?
[04:28:28] evaded: dscoular: First from apt, then have use it an time. Then remove it. Install it from source. Like these have not work and i have not find how to remove it. I have get an bonus and have install that deb one.
[04:30:01] dscoular`: evaded, sorry finding it a little hard to understand you. If you are using the source version give the full path i.e. /usr/local/bin/mythtv-setup to avoid confusion with apt installed binaries
[04:30:37] evaded: dscoular: Yes, sorry. I explain me bad.
[04:32:35] dscoular`: evaded, does a setup.xml file exist in /usr/local/share/mythtv ?
[04:32:49] evaded: dscoular: I have been use mythtv for an little time. Like there was an know problem with xmltv and mythfilldatabase and tv_grab_be. I had a need to get an newer version. So i have remove the myth debian version and have install if from source. But after install it from source i got the ^ msg
[04:33:05] evaded: dscoular: Yes, it's been there
[04:33:35] dscoular`: evaded, so what happens when you run with the full path e.g. /usr/local/bin/mythtv-setup ?
[04:34:16] dscoular`: evaded, when you say installed from source are you talking about mythtv or tv_grab_de ?

[04:37:50] evaded: dscoular: I had follow it. I no remmeber the procedure
[04:38:25] dscoular`: evaded, I think you should start again, following the documentation step by step.
[04:38:30] evaded: It's been mythtv_release_0_19_fixes/ ?
[04:38:59] dscoular`: The howto covering 0.19 should be applicable to 0.19-fixes.
[04:39:24] evaded: dscoular: Yes, i think also, it was an `black` night. I need to redo the whole thing. But i have things to record. I think i take the K7 method lol ;-)
[04:39:27] dscoular`: a1fa, well danielk fixed the bug I reported in a flash (3 hours)! It's not too bad now
[04:40:01] a1fa: dscoular: what bug?

[04:43:01] evaded: Guys guys guys, i love you so. It's been removed

[04:43:32] dscoular`: I get occasional frontend crashes and input lockup.
[04:43:56] dscoular`: a1fa, but skip and ff are fine... I'm not near my mythbox right now though.
[04:44:37] dscoular`: a1fa, I reckon you want later than 9926
[04:44:42] hpAuto: anyone know if the firmware for a pvr-150 is differant than for a 250?
[04:45:37] a1fa: 9932.
[04:45:38] a1fa: ;)
[04:45:39] dscoular`: hpAuto, doesn't ivtv.sf.net tell you that ?
[04:45:57] dscoular`: a1fa, wow!
[04:46:23] hpAuto: no, it does not
[04:46:39] hpAuto: that's why I'm asking
[04:46:52] a1fa: it should be the same
[04:47:09] a1fa: cos there is only one firmware
[04:47:13] a1fa: for those cards
[04:47:27] dscoular`: a1fa, I'm recording from DVB-T though maybe that's different ff code ?
[04:47:30] hpAuto: it's a bit unclear
[04:48:10] a1fa: i just updated to 9932
[04:48:13] dscoular`: I just googled: http://ivtv.writeme.ch/tiki-index.php?page=PVR150-500Firmware
[04:48:13] a1fa: :)
[04:48:22] a1fa: i need to stop upgrading so often
[04:48:38] a1fa: need to find a good time to get a decent bug free version
[04:48:46] dscoular`: 0.18.1 ;)
[04:48:57] a1fa: 0.19-fixes
[04:48:58] a1fa: is fine
[04:48:59] hpAuto: damn, followed that to a T, and doesn't work
[04:49:50] a1fa: oh well
[04:49:51] a1fa: :)
[04:49:54] hello_man: hi dscoular.. how are you
[04:49:54] dscoular`: I suspect thats because the info is out of date for some distros and /lib/firmware is the place on some.
[04:49:58] a1fa: mythtv should comercialize :)
[04:49:59] dscoular`: What distro ?
[04:50:11] hpAuto: yea, i tried both locations
[04:50:18] hello_man: hi everybody..
[04:50:21] dscoular`: hpAuto, there are three actually
[04:50:29] hello_man: dscoular, I am hi_dude from yesterday.. ;-)
[04:50:34] hpAuto: what's the 3rd, /lib/modules?
[04:50:45] dscoular`: hpAuto, what distro, what places have you tried ?
[04:50:57] ** dscoular` waves at hello_man **
[04:50:57] hpAuto: fedora4
[04:51:27] dscoular`: hpAuto, on ubuntu dapper they have things in /lib/firmware/`uname -r`
[04:51:42] dscoular`: hpAuto, for fc4 I reckon it's /lib/firmware/
[04:51:52] hpAuto: lemmie see where the rpm puts them
[04:52:05] a1fa: rpm s0ck
[04:52:21] dscoular`: hmm, if it's from an rpm specific to fc4 then it should "just work(tm)"
[04:52:27] hello_man: guys.. can somebody tell me if mythtv works with ACPI suspend to RAM /resume etc
[04:52:52] dscoular`: Did you get the RPM via yum ?
[04:53:33] ** a1fa reboots his mythtv box after god knows how many days :) **
[04:55:45] a1fa: ff bug fixed
[04:56:19] a1fa: i whish that mythphone bug is fixed
[04:56:26] dscoular`: a1fa, danielk is good
[04:56:38] dscoular`: a1fa, which one ?
[04:57:07] a1fa: the one that it makes it not work with firewall and nat
[04:57:48] dscoular`: a1fa, isn't that down to your ability to make the firewall forward the appropriate UDP ports ?
[04:58:05] a1fa: i've done that
[04:58:14] a1fa: stupid shit aint workin
[04:58:55] a1fa: asterisk server keeps re-sending ack packet to it

[05:01:17] hello_man: as of now, when I want to watch TV, i use the remote and press pwoer button.
[05:01:17] hpAuto: anyone have an idea?
[05:01:42] hello_man: once I am done, I press pwoer button again and my box is suspended to RAm. Dead..
[05:01:52] hello_man: when it need to record, it comes back automatically..
[05:01:57] hello_man: can I do that with linux and mythtv?
[05:02:01] a1fa: ok
[05:02:12] a1fa: i am guessing that computer is still running
[05:02:33] a1fa: yes you can do the same thing
[05:02:36] hello_man: computer is actually suspended to RAM with hard disk and otehr stuff down.
[05:02:46] hello_man: it wakes up with USB event
[05:02:49] dscoular`: hpAuto, use google... http://lists.atrpms.net/pipermail/atrpms-user . . . /004685.html
[05:02:50] hello_man: or mouse move or keyboard
[05:02:55] a1fa: ok
[05:02:58] a1fa: good
[05:03:06] hello_man: how does it work with linux and mythtv
[05:03:13] hpAuto: yea, I exhaused most the links on that error, non work
[05:03:30] hello_man: I believe linux has some ACPI support but will mythtv can wake it up for recording?
[05:03:42] hello_man: from suspend or standby.
[05:03:48] hpAuto: tried latest ivtv
[05:03:53] dscoular`: hello_man, you can send a wake-on-lan packet to some bios
[05:03:59] hello_man: I knwo it can use nvram etc to set a wakeup timer
[05:04:08] hello_man: but that's from shutdown
[05:04:31] hello_man: dscoular right.. but I don't need to wake from another computer.
[05:04:35] hello_man: I can wake from remote..
[05:04:46] hello_man: my question is, will mythtv record if computer is in standby or suspended mode
[05:04:58] hello_man: does mythbackend be running at that time?
[05:05:00] a1fa: night
[05:05:11] ** dscoular` side are splitting **
[05:05:48] dscoular`: hello_man, nothing is running at suspend or standby mode as far as linux is concerned
[05:05:49] hpAuto: I'm just doubing I need the svn of ivtv to get a pvr-150 working
[05:06:29] dscoular`: hpAuto, I thought loads of people had pvt-150 working... I'd be suprised if you needed cvs... I'll research via google
[05:06:47] hello_man: you can research via msn as well
[05:07:00] hello_man: its getting better

[05:12:28] WAR_CH|LD: I dont recall this happening before, is there an optino for this?

[05:14:34] dscoular`: hpAuto, so which are you currently using source based or rpm based ?
[05:14:53] hpAuto: I was using source, just tried rpm again
[05:15:17] hpAuto: I dunno what happands now that both are on

[05:21:54] WAR_CH|LD: ah, is that right
[05:22:03] dscoular`: If you go into "Watch Recordings", you can change the group filter to show "livetv" and it will list everything you have watched in the last 24 hours
[05:22:23] dscoular`: Assuming the default expiry is unchanged.
[05:22:26] WAR_CH|LD: wouldn't that waste a lot of hdd
[05:22:34] WAR_CH|LD: and this would autoexpire
[05:22:44] WAR_CH|LD: say after 24hours by default?
[05:22:47] dscoular`: WAR_CH|LD, you got it
[05:23:04] WAR_CH|LD: so there is no "ringbuf" like in 0.18.1
[05:23:11] dscoular`: WAR_CH|LD, if you want to keep anything you just mark it as no autoexpire.
[05:23:21] dscoular`: WAR_CH|LD, no that's long gone
[05:23:22] WAR_CH|LD: oh, on. nothing liek that
[05:24:02] WAR_CH|LD: alright, so what happens if the live tv runs out of hdd?
[05:24:12] WAR_CH|LD: the backend just starts autoexpering stuff to make room?
[05:24:22] dscoular`: WAR_CH|LD, this has been discussed ad infinitum in the mailing list.
[05:24:30] WAR_CH|LD: and I assume any old livetv recordings are the first things to be autoexpired
[05:24:54] WAR_CH|LD: well my googles have come up with nothing
[05:24:55] WAR_CH|LD: but, sure
[05:25:12] dscoular`: WAR_CH|LD, mythtv.org mailing list archives are your friend.

[05:27:13] WAR_CH|LD: yeah, atm I prefer the old one
[05:27:22] WAR_CH|LD: way, but I get the advanages to this way
[05:27:25] dscoular`: Everyone does... till the get used to it.
[05:27:47] WAR_CH|LD: hehe, I would lke to show you an error. let me pastbin it

[05:29:38] WAR_CH|LD: as you can see, it says the database isn't there or it isn't open..... but it was working 100% until this point
[05:29:38] dscoular`: hpAuto, you need to set the tuner type in your module aliases (from memory... I had a PVR 350 two years ago). Let me check
[05:29:42] WAR_CH|LD: and that same box setup is working right now
[05:30:00] WAR_CH|LD: so I dont udnerstand while every now and then i'll get this which kills everything. :(
[05:30:18] hpAuto: yea, I tried a few, options tuner type=39, 50
[05:30:31] hpAuto: I dunno which it is
[05:30:39] dscoular`: For PAL I remember the number 5 being important.
[05:31:47] dscoular`: I see type=56 is a Philips PAL/SECAM multi (FQ1216AME MK4
[05:31:55] dscoular`: Any idea what type you want ?
[05:32:36] dscoular`: WAR_CH|LD, maybe a database rebuild would fix that... not sure.

[05:37:41] dscoular`: Let me look at the pastebin again... for a bit longer
[05:37:51] WAR_CH|LD: k
[05:37:59] WAR_CH|LD: I have googled it a lot, I seem to get nothing.
[05:38:27] WAR_CH|LD: the backewnd isn't restart, and the mysqld logs look great as well. nothingh in there
[05:38:59] WAR_CH|LD: I tohught maybe the mythfrontend was holding the connection open and then mysqld was closing the connecio non it or something liek that but I can not find any info on it
[05:39:05] dscoular`: WAR_CH|LD, yeah recordedmarkup is the busiest table methinks.
[05:39:31] dscoular`: WAR_CH|LD, the mythtv users archive has tips on rebuilding the recordedmarkup table.
[05:40:19] dscoular`: hpAuto, It sounds like it's not detecting your particular model of card. I've search the ivtv mailing list for fellow 150 users.
[05:40:41] dscoular`: hpAuto, the critical thing is usually that the driver matches the output of lspci
[05:41:23] dscoular`: The critical elements being the vendor string, subvendor string, vendor device and subvendor device.
[05:41:48] dscoular`: hpAuto, these can vary from card to card and the driver might not know your combo.
[05:42:04] hpAuto: hm, that's no good
[05:42:27] dscoular`: best I can do considering I don't have a PVR card these days... sorry.
[05:42:42] dscoular`: What is the output of lspci -n
[05:43:16] dscoular`: If you can figure out just the line for the 150 via lspci
[05:43:22] dscoular`: and lspci -v

[11:09:37] Juski: speedsix: it might be time to play with the kernel. or if you're feeling brave, Hg from linuxtv.org
[11:10:04] speedsix: Googling is should just detect as card=113, this doesn't
[11:10:29] speedsix: tbh I don't even know what the F**k it is, he says it has Twinhan on the box
[11:10:30] Juski: speedsix: DVB tuners usually have a brooktree type device & they use it as an interface to the PCI bus for the DVB chip
[11:10:45] speedsix: it also has a small connexant chip on it
[11:10:55] Juski: speedsix: what kernel does the system have?
[11:11:17] speedsix: 2.6.12.x, latest Ubuntu breezy
[11:11:22] Juski: anything before 2.6.10 probably won't have many (or any) DVB drivers
[11:11:44] speedsix: I think I'm just going to tell him to buy the nova-t I have
[11:11:45] Juski: hmm. my card was just picked up ok in breezy farthog
[11:12:08] Juski: speedsix: it might need mercurial drivers from linuxtv.org
[11:12:22] speedsix: How to I stop those conflicting with ubuntu modules?
[11:12:37] Juski: I know what a PITA making your own kernel on umbongo is though
[11:12:57] speedsix: It says do not use these modules with your stock kernel modules
[11:13:17] speedsix: so how the f to I not use the umbongo modules?
[11:13:32] Juski: speedsix: you could try the kernel modules – I mean it's not as if they're always autoloaded correctly
[11:13:44] Juski: for that to work, the card DB has to be up to date ;-)

[11:15:16] speedsix: Juski nowt
[11:15:25] LLyric: You changed the "if" but not then "then". SHouldn't they be the same?
[11:15:33] speedsix: doesn't create /dev/dvb atall
[11:15:47] Juski: speedsix: how about modprobe -l |grep dvb ?
[11:16:09] speedsix: hang on..
[11:16:45] dscoular: LLyric, no that would change the meaning of the two indices.
[11:16:51] Juski: speedsix: you might still be able to use the kernel modules – it's just a matter of working out which to use sometimes.
[11:17:29] speedsix: somethings iffy with it, should just work looking at google pages, shouldn;t detect it as Card=0 ***UNKNOWN/GENERIC***
[11:17:40] Juski: but if it's a newer card than is supported....
[11:17:56] Juski: sounds like umbongo has loaded bttv
[11:18:15] speedsix: yeah it loads bttv, just doesn't seem to autodetect it right
[11:18:15] LLyric: Isn't one zero-based and one one-based? Shouldn't it be:
[11:18:22] Juski: but not cottonned on that it's a DVB tuner
[11:18:37] LLyric: if (whatever > maxchannels + 1) foo = maxchannels + 1; ?
[11:18:38] dscoular: LLyric, yes and they have to maintain that.
[11:18:44] LLyric: dscoular: the code seems confused about the two variables anyway
[11:18:46] Juski: speedsix: it's most likely NOT a faulty card. you can't trust the autodetecting crap, believe me
[11:18:55] speedsix: well I'm not sure if the stock bttv module has cards higher than 113

[11:31:08] Juski: ;-)
[11:31:26] stuarta: Invasion that bad?
[11:31:28] speedsix: I don't really understand dmesg still lists bttv stuff but detects the Twinham card now??
[11:31:29] Juski: speedsix: so erm... however you get modules to autoload at boot time – you need to do that
[11:31:57] Juski: stuarta: it took ages to get going – and when it did it was still too slow
[11:32:22] Juski: penultimate episode was on e4 last night – looks like that & the last one will be winding everything up

[11:33:20] stuarta: Wed, new episode starts.
[11:33:26] Juski: stuarta: does that mean I have to stop trusting digitalspy?
[11:33:45] speedsix: I added an option to /etc/modprobe.d/bttv something like bttv option card=113 and it seems to have been that that has causes it to work

[11:47:47] stuarta: aren't the tv licenses tied to a person these days?
[11:47:50] speedsix: Juski did a reboot, card works fine! All I did was add bttv option card=113 to the modprobe thingy
[11:48:21] Juski: speedsix: cool. email the bttv list to update their card DB ;-)
[11:48:49] speedsix: I get confused with all the modules, the card list ok, just doesn't seem to autodetect the right one
[11:49:01] Zider: all they can do is re-list you as owning a tv.. and then you just call'em up and say you don't have a tv anymore, and you're safe until next time they get you ;)
[11:49:26] speedsix: bttv bt8xx etc. etc. so confusing
[11:50:15] Juski: speedsix: so you didn't need to add the dvb-bt8xx module to the autoload list?

[11:50:33] DGnome: stuarta: here they are bound to a household

[11:59:24] lilo (lilo!i=levin@freenode/staff/pdpc.levin) has joined #mythtv-users

[12:01:34] Juski: it's the module you need for the card to work! well one of the cards anyway
[12:02:35] speedsix: do I just add the line dvb-bt8xx to my modprobe thingumy?

[12:04:34] Juski: speedsix: anyway – the dvb-bt8xx module is what is needed to talk to the dvb hardware on what is otherwise just a dumb old bttv card
[12:04:55] speedsix: I getcha

[12:06:23] kayelem: I think i follow...
[12:07:04] kayelem: hashbang, I need to diddle about with the PLL configuration for the bt878a to get 405-line caprure...(!)
[12:07:13] hashbang: quite possibly!
[12:07:31] hashbang: some Bt cards need a fair amount of fiddling anyway
[12:07:36] kayelem: hashbang, I've looked at the datasheet, the '878a has a well funky pll that should work...
[12:07:53] hashbang: they are supposed to come with eproms which say which tuner etc. is included, but mine (a Pace model) doesn't
[12:08:08] hashbang: so it's down to a brute-force search in order to find the right combo of module params

[14:15:28] Juski_: Ryushin: no idea. check out mythstreamtv – but remember that sharing recordings is NOT what mythtv is about
[14:18:00] Ryushin: I'm using vlc to stream directly from the pvr card. No myth involved. Works good too.
[14:18:47] Ryushin: Made a little script to use tune the channel and start vlc using the pvr-350 card. Works like a champ.

[14:38:20] Juski_: ah so in your case you're more just narrowcasting – still legally grey
[14:39:59] Ryushin: Now on to the real problem for today. It "seems" that the stability issues of my box were due to my nvidia fx5200 card. I'll get it warrantied to get replaced. But I'm less than happy having a propritory driver. I was reading the the XV performance of the nv xorg driver is hit and miss.
[14:40:40] sapbeast: Juski: yeah im trying to figure out how to recode my shows to save space... although i dont like the options from the built in transcoders (no way to specify... size?). AFAIK there are no frontends for the transcode program other than dvd::rip which only does dvd...

[14:41:46] Ryushin: So I was able to scrounge up a ATI Radeon 9000 card with a DVI out. Works like a champ using the stock xorg radeon driver. However, not when I play 1080i content. I get that pink bar. And from what I understand, this will be in all the ATI cards except the newer X**** cards, which also don't have xorg drivers.
[14:42:09] Ryushin: So what is a guy to do for a video card when they don't want binary drivers?

[14:44:48] octan: http://pastebin.com/718779
[14:45:03] Ryushin: Zider: ATI support has been steller in XFree86 and X.org for the mach64 and radeon chipsets. I wouldn't choose any other video card over ATI for the older stuff. But for the newer stuff, there doesn't seem to much of an alternative.
[14:45:42] Ryushin: Juksi_: yea, but have they released anything yet?
[14:45:50] Zider: "steller"?
[14:45:58] Ryushin: excellent
[14:46:23] Zider: I have never seen any ati card work as well as nvidia cards
[14:46:26] Ryushin: spelling has never been my strong suit. Maybe I can get a spell check in xchat.  :)
[14:46:52] Ryushin: In Linux? Or windows?
[14:46:52] Juski_: nownow – lets not let this degenerate into a VGA war again
[14:47:05] octan: whats -lXv ?
[14:47:08] Zider: in general
[14:47:47] Juski_: octan: seems you're missing some libraries
[14:48:01] Juski_: xv-devel, perhaps?
[14:48:03] Ryushin: Well, I've been using ATI since the Mach32 days, and they have been the best Linux card for me. At least until ATI started producing their new chips.
[14:48:08] octan: Juski, hmm ok,, got an idea what lib?
[14:48:14] octan: ok,,
[14:48:23] octan: let me try installing that
[14:48:28] Juski_: octan: which distro? some have all the build deps you need
[14:48:29] Zider: I've been using nvidia since TNT1.. :P
[14:48:40] Juski_: e.g. apt-get install mythtv build-dep
[14:48:47] octan: Juski_ ubuntu "dapper"
[14:49:14] Ryushin: Okay, well anyway, what open alternatives exist now with a DVI output?
[14:50:13] Juski_: no idea – it's likely the DVI standard is yet another thing a manufacturer needs to pay a licence for
[14:50:50] Merlin83b: It is, VESA have made a (better) royalty free standard.
[14:51:46] Juski_: lol
[14:51:50] octan: Juski, ok,, i installed xv-dev.. but now i got another error

[16:58:21] Sneaker: Hi! I have Nebula PCI dvb-t card and I was wondering that is there anyway for me to use video-in that the Nebula has?
[16:59:50] Juski: Sneaker: you could in theory, but you'll only be able to use it with software encoding which is, in my experience, crappy
[17:01:46] Sneaker: hmm
[17:02:04] Sneaker: ok, but in theory, how do I use the video-in with mythtv?
[17:02:05] Juski: it _should_ come up as a bttv device like /dev/video0
[17:02:09] Sneaker: how do I enable it?
[17:02:26] Sneaker: hmm
[17:02:34] Sneaker: so i just add another video source for mythtv?
[17:02:37] Juski: if you do it's likely it'll cause you problems with the DVB side of it
[17:02:38] Sneaker: ok
[17:02:59] Juski: you definitely won't be able to use both at the same time
[17:03:18] Sneaker: What would be better way to connect a dvb-s tuner to computer with mythtv?
[17:03:30] Sneaker: I just want to record some misc. progs
[17:03:30] Juski: buy a DVB-S tuner card
[17:03:39] Sneaker: It's not an option atm :(
[17:04:11] Juski: go into mythtv-setup & make sure the DVB part of the card is made 'on demand' so that it only open the DVB tuner when it needs to
[17:04:26] Juski: stop mythbackend first
[17:04:40] Sneaker: ok
[17:04:44] jake1932: anyone know how much bandwidth I should allow for playing one 1080i MPEG2 stream?
[17:04:49] jake1932: (streaming)
[17:05:02] Juski: while still in mythtv-setup, add another tuner card as a v4l device
[17:05:14] Juski: Sneaker: but I recommend you try it in tvtime first
[17:05:21] Sneaker: juski, ok!
[17:05:22] Sneaker: thanks

[19:03:44] bammers: yes – am using mysql5 with mythtv 0.19
[19:04:21] bammers: pardon my ignorance, laga – but what does mythbackend --resched do ?
[19:04:37] laga_: bammers: it makes mythbackend reschedule the recordings
[19:05:15] bammers: ok – is that just a flag I put in my rc script which kicks off mythbackend when I boot up?

[19:10:29] psofa: and was really slow too
[19:10:37] stuarta: psofa: yeah that's improved vastly...
[19:11:05] Juski: stuarta: do us owners of cards with 'broken' drivers still need daft timeout values?

[19:14:57] fozi: so the new model, but what is exactly broken? you do not get any eit data, but everything else works?
[19:15:01] Juski: psofa: no, the box is only 800Mhz & I need xvmc
[19:15:13] laga_: bammers: oh. well, sorry then, dunno. it worked for me

[19:15:28] psofa: Juski, do you find performance acceptable with 800 mhz + xvmc?
[19:15:30] laga_: bammers: :)
[19:15:38] Juski: fozi: I had it getting EIT data last time I ran SVN – used greyfoxx's patch (pre 0.19)
[19:15:53] laga_: 800mhz should be fine even without xvmc for SDTV, imho
[19:15:57] stuarta: Juski: they were the dark ages....
[19:16:04] Juski: psofa: it's acceptable, yes... but it's a bit clunky
[19:16:15] Juski: my epia m10k pisses all over it
[19:16:19] psofa: on my 1200 + xvmc when i see letters scrolling horizontally they look like they stop every second
[19:16:36] laga_: psofa: playback is perfect on my 450 + xvmc
[19:16:43] psofa: and the strange thing is that cpu usage is pretty low
[19:16:47] Juski: stuarta: yes, but a lot of the good stuff didn't make it into 0.19 did it?
[19:16:52] Zider: laga_: PII 450?
[19:16:56] laga_: Zider: PIII
[19:17:05] psofa: so i tend to suspect its the 686b + sb live card
[19:17:15] Juski: eek – I still have my old 3d blaster banshee
[19:17:15] Zider: ah
[19:17:29] Juski: wonder if it still works...
[19:18:14] stuarta: Juski: 0.19 is best described as a checkpoint on the way to 0.20
[19:18:21] laga_: yep
[19:18:24] Juski: ROFLMAO! it's PCI!
[19:18:26] laga_: 0.20 will be nice. :)
[19:18:43] stuarta: almost good enough for 0.5!

[19:24:33] Juski: stuarta: nice!... but I'm concerned by your cx88 card not being able to cope with the new mux :-/
[19:24:48] Juski: in what way does it 'not cope' ?
[19:25:18] stuarta: doesn't return any data.
[19:25:18] psofa: btw has anyone noticed that when you mute the sound it doesnt really get muted?

[19:26:29] stuarta: most likely, there are driver updates that I haven't pulled in yet...

[19:30:15] Sneaker__: xris, Is there anyway to be sure?
[19:30:42] SlicerDicer-: j-rod: actually mysql 5 would cause the "upcoming" recordings to vanish. This was due to mysql timing out so once I downgraded everything was fine
[19:30:47] SlicerDicer-: kormoc: thats what the deal was hehe

[21:19:16] kormoc: |rt|, I would guess it would be a permission error that is explained in more detail somewhere in the log...

[22:08:22] armand: s/is/was
[22:08:34] armand: and it seems to get worse as mythfrontend leaks memory
[22:08:39] armand: 457 root 15 0 203m 58m 26m S 24.6 11.6 5:11.68 mythfrontend
[22:08:51] armand: started may 8th
[22:08:59] armand: 7days of uptime, 200meg resident
[22:09:02] armand: thats terrible :)
[22:09:12] beavis (beavis!n=beavis@84.167.183.122) has quit (Remote closed the connection)
[22:09:13] armand: and thats 9878
[22:09:18] armand: not like, release
[22:09:23] armand: (which was just as bad)
[22:09:30] fiveiron: is there a way to dynamically adjust the frequency of a channel while watching it in the latest svn of mythtv?
[22:10:37] armand: strange that during all this crappy disk io that myth is doing, vmstat shows only moderate io traffic
[22:10:39] armand: its weird
[22:12:10] kormoc: armand, my 0.19-fixes is up for 19 days, any only 101M Virtual, 31M Resident, 10M shared
[22:12:23] Ryushin: I read this on a thread: the 1.0.1 version of xine-lib has a video option for the opengl driver called 2D_Tex_Fragprog that supposedly is as fast or faster than Xv on "modern graphics cards".
[22:12:25] armand: kormoc: then you have something different than me and several other people
[22:12:36] kormoc: armand, the first memory col is virtual memory, second is resident, and thrid is shared
[22:12:50] Ryushin: Can Myth do anything like this? I Daniel is work on some GL stuff in nvidia xvmc recently.
[22:12:56] armand: root 18929 0.0 11.6 208532 60228 tty1 S May08 0:00 mythfrontend
[22:13:06] armand: 208meg, thats WAY more than .18 ever used, with a 2month uptime
[22:13:16] kormoc: armand, so by your own poaste, it shows it as 58m res
[22:13:31] armand: with 140meg in swap
[22:13:40] armand: the frontend swaps like a bitch when you go through its menus, guides, etc
[22:14:07] armand: and its much slower when you choose to play a recording
[22:14:23] armand: takes a good 5 seconds or so to start watching a 1hr show, 2 or 3 seconds for a 30minute show (thats been recorded)
[22:14:41] armand: if i exit frontend and restart it, its back to normal speed, 1–2 seconds for 30minute shows OR 1hr shows, no difference
[22:14:56] kormoc: armand, virtual memory isn't swap memory
[22:15:16] armand: until the frontend is up for a couple of days, then its swapping like crazy, solid hdd light even though blocks/sec is only 4000–5000 and ive dd'd to the drive at 8000–9000
[22:15:43] armand: kormoc: let me guess, windows guy..
[22:15:50] armand: if its on disk, its swap
[22:15:56] kormoc: armand, hrm? I've been linux only for years
[22:16:05] armand: then why would you call it 'virtual memory'
[22:16:15] armand: and distinquish between virtual, swap, and real
[22:16:18] kormoc: armand, erm, I'm saying what top/ps/etc say is virtual memory, it's not swap
[22:16:31] armand: where do you think the virtual memory goes though :)
[22:16:31] kormoc: armand, http://virtualthreads.blogspot.com/2006/02/un . . . n-linux.html
[22:16:47] kormoc: armand, virtual memory is the memory shared by libs and similars
[22:16:58] armand: regardless of my understanding of memory, mythfrontend leaks
[22:17:00] armand: why its leaking, i have no idea

[22:21:15] armand: i would have reverted to .18 a long time ago if i had known how many problems .19 within 7days of upgrading
[22:21:22] armand: since i cron backups and only keep 7days of the database
[22:21:38] armand: livetv used to lockup every hour on the hour switching between programs
[22:21:59] armand: fixes has corrected most of that, but there's still a chance (and it happens) that livetv will lock up and you have to exit and restart when it switches on the hour
[22:22:21] kormoc: armand, yeah, that writeable/private is the correct number, and that does indicate an issue

[22:25:40] achew22: has anyone here sucessfuly put in a air2pc?
[22:25:52] armand: was useing 7676 drivers at the time, which was the right ones, but still no go. not a problem though, i dont really mind the 18% cpu mythfrontend uses heh

[22:27:42] armand: the memory issue aside, the disk io is whats terrible
[22:28:21] armand: and i dont get why sometimes frontend cant even play a video, it sits there with a blackscreen for 30seconds or so, then drops back to recorded programs list... i'll select the same recording immediately, and it immedately plays
[22:28:40] kormoc: armand, the fix for the 5700 is a setting in the db now, so just set it and you'd get the color OSD
[22:28:40] armand: and the whole time, blocks/sec in vmstat on the backend s only around 2000, nowhere near max on the drive..
[22:28:58] armand: oh, sweet, is it on the wiki?
[22:29:12] kormoc: yeah, I also have been noticing very bad IO performance, but I havn't tracked it down yet
[22:29:15] kormoc: yeah, it should be
[22:29:27] armand: i cant figure out the io thing either
[22:29:33] armand: i know ext3 is part of my problem hehe

[22:30:03] kormoc: I run ext3 as well, but it's way more then just standard disk io

[23:20:26] Juski: why reinvent the 5 lines of code?
[23:21:06] Juski: ahhh mixing up the audio & subs streams.. I dunno if that's specifically to defeat ripping, but it does a good job anyway. you can't beat the manual approach
[23:21:23] psofa: Juski, yes i suppose this would work
[23:21:32] psofa: but it takes more time than pressing a nice button
[23:21:37] psofa: and be done with it

[23:22:03] psofa: once you install mythtv you dont need to do anything else

[23:22:31] Juski: just grabbed 9932... have to see if it'll compile on this poor old box
[23:27:05] MORA_: "ld cannot find -lXext" any ideas, or is latest svn broken since I can compile -fixes fine
[23:28:09] kormoc: MORA_, you are missing that lib tis all
[23:28:27] MORA_: which lib is it ?
[23:28:46] kormoc: MORA_, libXext
[23:28:46] Juski: uh? ./configure --enable-dvb-eit doesn't work & the option isnt listed anymore – does that mean it's compulsory now?
[23:29:19] MORA_: and is it needed to modify settings.pro in svn versions to enable dvb, or is the --enable-dvb enough ?
[23:29:55] Juski: MORA_: I dunno, which is why I asked... always used to be an option before when I've tried this
[23:30:20] xris: MORA_: you usually need to point to the linux-dvbutils source directory, too
[23:30:50] MORA_ is now known as MORA
[23:30:53] Juski: try ./configure --enable-dvb – that should be enough
[23:31:06] Juski: I was asking about the EIT option which seems to have been removed
[23:31:23] Juski: ach I can live without it if it's not in there
[23:31:38] MORA: hm, yea, removeing my 3 lines in settings.pro skipped the error
[23:31:44] MORA: what did -eit do ?
[23:32:20] Juski: EIT is the over the air EPG we get on DVB in europe (mostly)
[23:32:30] MORA: ah
[23:32:48] MORA: my provider seems to only be carrying now and next :/
[23:32:57] Juski: it's spiffy – set top DVRs can use it to get totally bang-on recordings if a show is gonna be late
[23:33:14] Juski: MORA: you in Australia perchance?
[23:33:18] MORA: denmark
[23:33:28] Juski: ah
[23:34:00] Juski: as PVR ownership increases maybe the broadcasters will start providing a full EPG
[23:34:10] Juski: or maybe they already do & it's non-standard
[23:34:31] MORA: the reciever they delivered only shows now and next too
[23:35:19] Juski: ack
[23:35:30] Juski: they? a cable company?
[23:35:30] kormoc: MORA, if you don't libe libXext, myth may crash randomly, for your info
[23:35:45] MORA: viasat broadcasting stuff
[23:35:57] MORA: stupid closed encryptions systems = limited range of crap recievers to use
[23:35:57] kormoc: *libe = have
[23:36:16] Juski: heh. like cable over here then
[23:36:49] MORA: they have one box with hd in, and it dosent allow you to get the data off the box :/
[23:37:51] MORA: kormoc: no idea what it was missing, havent got it working with dvb yet, would prefer to have a full htpc rather than some dreambox as reciever though :)
