[03:24:42] Ross_C: yes – you just need to sign up with zap2it
[03:25:06] linolium: I did that but I am not sure where to put the username and password
[03:26:04] xris: linolium: mythtvsetup, sources (I think that's what it's called)
[03:26:18] xris: should be called "listings sources" or something like that, but I think it's "video sources"
[03:27:47] linolium: hmm, what does it mean when I start up mythtv-setup and it shows the background image for a while, but then just switches to a black background with nothing else?
[03:30:35] xris: linolium: sounds like you're missing something.
[03:30:47] xris: should be icons for various things like configuring channels, video cards, etc.
[03:31:23] linolium: says something about "mythtv: could not connect to socket", but I am sure the backend is running
[03:31:42] xris: backend shouldn't be running for setup
[03:31:57] xris: (though it will work well enough if it is — just warns you)

[04:00:47] linolium: what does this mean: "If this is the master backend server, please run 'mythfilldatabase' to populate the database with channel information"
[04:00:48] banyan: I have a crash problem as well. mythfrontend won't start except in a vnc session. It seems not to like the X server, or the nvidia card... or something.
[04:01:13] banyan: It means run mythfilldatabase to populate the database with channel information.
[04:01:35] banyan: because your backend probably hasn't got any listing info.
[04:01:44] linolium: I cannot run mythfilldatabase since I do not have a tv tuner
[04:02:04] banyan: sure you can. You'll get listings.
[04:02:23] banyan: you won't be able to record them but they'll be there.
[04:02:49] banyan: or maybe I should ask the obvious question. If you don't have a tuner why are you running myth?
[04:02:53] linolium: banyan, if I run mythfilldatabase it gives me the error "there are no channel sources defined, did you run the setup program?"
[04:03:03] linolium: banyan: just to open media and such
[04:03:17] banyan: like to play movies and so on?
[04:03:21] linolium: yes
[04:03:27] banyan: so really you just want to run mythvideo.
[04:03:39] banyan: well, forget about the message and start mythfrontend.
[04:03:51] linolium: well, I would also like to look at tv listings and play music, etc
[04:03:56] banyan: or is the problem that you can't get a backend to run so the frontend won't run?

[04:04:32] banyan: can you go into the video area on the frontend?
[04:05:58] banyan: It's media library / watch videos
[04:07:52] banyan: If you can, then the only way I can think of to get listings is somehow to set up a fake capture device that you don't really have and configure a channel listing fetch against it.
[04:08:22] banyan: but that might make the backend crash, heh.
[04:09:41] linolium: what does it mean when you start up mythfrontend and all you get is black screen?

[04:13:18] banyan: did you start it with -l <some log file>?
[04:14:22] linolium: no, but I will
[04:14:46] banyan: Good luck with that. My installation has gone all batty as well.
[04:15:23] banyan: segfaults on startup unless I run the frontend in a vnc session... the playback on a pvr-350 TV-out take 50% of the CPU...
[04:15:50] linolium: erlack
[04:17:13] linolium: hm, the only thing that looks bad in the log file is "mythtv: could not connect to socket"
[04:19:14] banyan: what did it say before that? is that for lirc? or is that for the backend?

[04:33:00] GreyFoxx: And you say you got the IP of trhe database fromthe backends config ?
[04:33:52] rothgar: well, the mysql.txt on the backend shows the host as localhost (but when I changed that to the ip the backend couldn't connect to itself
[04:34:14] rothgar: I got the password from the backend's mysql.txt
[04:34:35] GreyFoxx: Your mysql is likely not listening on the external IP or not on any Ip and is only reachable via local unix sockets

[04:37:13] GreyFoxx: So your mysql isn't configuredtolisten on the external IP,hence the frontend and backend can't connect to it on that IP
[04:37:41] GreyFoxx: you likely have a my.cnf file which has it set to bind to localhost only
[04:38:18] rothgar: that would make sense, where is the my.cnf file?
[04:38:34] GreyFoxx: it can vary, mine is in /etc/
[04:39:48] cathy_: pls...desperate for some help...have scoured the online howtos/documentation for days...dearth of info on STB's is incredible

[04:43:30] cathy_: it's a great distro
[04:43:50] rothgar: I prefer kubuntu
[04:44:26] cathy_: well, u can always download kubuntu-desktop then...that's what i did, after the server and a few other things

[04:45:51] rothgar: GreyFoxx: what do I need to change in the my.cnf file to set it to listen for the frontend?
[04:47:10] rothgar: I am guessing it is bind address
[04:47:15] rothgar: but I have been wrong before
[04:48:37] GreyFoxx: comment outthe bind address line and restart mysql

[05:04:46] GreyFoxx: Or are you referring to the lack of postgres support ?
[05:04:56] mchou: sigh...
[05:05:23] xris: GreyFoxx: not that it'll matter once mysql gets embedded
[05:05:28] rtyler: GreyFoxx: from my understanding its either or
[05:05:36] xris: rtyler: no, it's just mysql
[05:05:38] GreyFoxx: rtsai: No, it's mysql only
[05:05:45] GreyFoxx: err rtyler
[05:05:47] rtyler: ah, lame :/
[05:06:00] GreyFoxx: can'tplease everyone :)
[05:06:03] mchou: GreyFoxx: you happen to know if isaac is still considering sqlite?
[05:06:26] rtyler: GreyFoxx: supporting postgres doesn't bother me, needing an external database for myth does
[05:06:27] xris: mchou: he is not
[05:06:31] xris: it failed the speed test
[05:06:37] xris: latest I've heard is "embedded mysql"
[05:06:38] GreyFoxx: mchou: Nope, far to slow for many things, but embedded mysql is posasible
[05:06:42] mchou: xris: so sqlite got canned?
[05:06:57] Captain_Murdoch: xris, you left off the word "miserably" on the end of that failed comment. :)

[05:07:28] GreyFoxx: hehe
[05:07:34] mchou: Captain_Murdoch: was sqlite performance really that bad?
[05:07:47] xris: mchou: yes.
[05:07:48] Captain_Murdoch: from what I heard.
[05:07:57] xris: scheduler query took like 5–10 mins to run
[05:07:59] Captain_Murdoch: things like the scheduler query
[05:08:00] rtyler: the most capital of my gripes is when myth "handles errors" in that it crashes X.org entirely >_>
[05:08:08] mchou: xris: holy molly
[05:08:24] GreyFoxx: rtyler: There isno way myth can crash X, if X is crashing you have other issues
[05:08:29] xris: mchou: takes up to 30 seconds in mysql
[05:08:44] mchou: xris: yeah, sqlite aint viable in that case then :)
[05:08:45] savageone: is the newest mythtv better then the one that comes in knoppmyth anyway?
[05:08:50] GreyFoxx: rtyler: Unless you are not running a window manager
[05:09:01] rtyler: myth as the wm
[05:09:03] monkeypet: i can't believe the comflag takes up 21% of my cpu.
[05:09:10] xris: rtyler: use a window manager
[05:09:13] GreyFoxx: If you are only launching mythfrontend without a manager then of course X would rstart if the "window manager"
[05:09:15] GreyFoxx: is gone
[05:09:27] mchou: monkeypet: you should consider yourself lucky :)
[05:09:51] xris: monkeypet: it should take 99% if nothing else is going on
[05:10:32] monkeypet: xris: why not 100%?
[05:10:34] banyan: I find mysql handles the hundreds of queries that the frontend throws at it on startup quite fantastically.
[05:10:37] rtyler: xris: what wm would you recommend?
[05:10:37] Captain_Murdoch: unless you're running in ~realtime flagging mode.
[05:10:58] xris: monkeypet: kernel/init/etc needs something? (dunno — just never seen anything take 100% except on multiproc)
[05:11:01] GreyFoxx: Captain_Murdoch: Have you had anyone report mythcomflag running even if it's disabled in the databse ?
[05:11:02] mchou: so how big a footprint is embedded mysql? Hopefully it's not monstrous
[05:11:18] xris: rtyler: I just use gnome.. but any of the "box" ones are good for lightweight
[05:11:35] GreyFoxx: rtyler: Fluxbox,icewm, lots of lightweight ones out there
[05:11:37] Captain_Murdoch: GreyFoxx: think someone said that once years ago, but couldn't provide any debug info or log.
[05:11:39] GreyFoxx: Iuse icewm on all of mine
[05:11:53] GreyFoxx: Captain_Murdoch: Ok. I appear to be "suffering" from it.
[05:12:17] GreyFoxx: I saw it running and thought ".... but I thought Ihad turned thatoff" hehe
[05:12:18] Captain_Murdoch: GreyFoxx: regular recordings or livetv?
[05:12:18] mchou: xris: if it took 100 your comp would now longer respond to other events :)
[05:12:20] GreyFoxx: Checked and it was
[05:12:24] GreyFoxx: regular recordings'
[05:12:25] mchou: no*
[05:12:34] GreyFoxx: today was the first day I used LiveTV in months :)

[05:13:09] GreyFoxx: I've done no investigation other than checking the database setting
[05:14:18] Captain_Murdoch: do you have realtime flagging on?
[05:14:31] GreyFoxx: Not that I;m aware of
[05:14:35] ** GreyFoxx goes and looks **
[05:14:42] banyan: Realtime flagging?
[05:15:01] mchou: banyan: yup. flagging while recording
[05:15:16] Captain_Murdoch: actually ~realtime since it stays 30 seconds behind live. :)
[05:15:18] banyan: where is that set? I want to check something.
[05:15:40] mchou: Captain_Murdoch: dude, that's NOWHERE near realtime :)
[05:15:40] Vantage13: is there a way to turn off the tv view when looking at the guide? (the pip window)
[05:16:03] Captain_Murdoch: mchou: ~realtime is relative. it's a lot more realtime than 2-hours later when the movie stops recording. :)
[05:16:17] mchou: Captain_Murdoch: at least in embedded space 30 sec you're toast :)
[05:16:43] Captain_Murdoch: that's why I try to remember to put the ~ always. :)

[05:17:46] EnterUserName (EnterUserName!n=dave@pdpc/supporter/student/GeekZoid) has joined #mythtv-users
[05:18:16] GreyFoxx: Ok, Maybe I'm blind, where is the realtime commflagging option? All I see is the regular "Commercial flag new recordings" option
[05:18:23] jams: Vantage13- editing ui.xml and removing the preview box for you theme -might- work. But I have never tried it
[05:18:24] banyan: Yeah, where is that?
[05:18:37] mchou: GreyFoxx: it's in the db :)
[05:18:48] Vantage13: jams: didn't there used to be a switch for it?
[05:18:49] mchou: table 'settings'
[05:18:51] GreyFoxx: and the flaggin jobs I saw were hours after :)
[05:18:57] Captain_Murdoch: GreyFoxx: I think it is in mythtv-setup on the jobqueue page since it can have bad effects if your system can't handle it.
[05:18:58] jams: Vantage13- not for the program guide
[05:19:12] Vantage13: jams: dang
[05:19:22] banyan: See, what happened to me is that around when I updated to 0.20, I found my playback takes 50% of my CPU (this is a PVR-350, so it should take about 0%)
[05:19:26] jams: one moment, let me try it real quick
[05:20:05] Vantage13: jams: k
[05:20:11] Strider is now known as hjohnson
[05:20:15] xris: .20 still works with the pvr-350 output?
[05:20:30] Captain_Murdoch: yeah, just virtually unsupported right now.
[05:20:31] Vantage13: jams: I'm thinking the preview window is what's crashing my frontend, so I'd like to turn it off to find out
[05:20:49] GreyFoxx: Captain_Murdoch: I see a setting to allow flag jobs on the backend, but that;s it
[05:20:52] ** xris wishes he could get mp4 support in the internal player **
[05:21:08] jams: Vantage13- assumed as much
[05:21:18] mchou: xris: but what records mp4?
[05:21:20] jams: doesn't solve the issue, but its a work around
[05:21:25] GreyFoxx: *gasp* It's been at least an HOUR since the last "Freevo, Tivo & MythTV" Post
[05:21:30] xris: mchou: nuvexport exports to mp4
[05:21:31] mchou: xris: aside from SW?
[05:21:44] xris: I archive to mp4 these days
[05:21:50] xris: looks better than avi, *and* it plays on my ipod
[05:21:59] Captain_Murdoch: Greay, it's on the "Job Queue (Global)" page, called "Start Auto-Commercial Flagging jobs when the recording starts"
[05:22:25] GreyFoxx: Ok, that;'s not on
[05:22:27] jams: Vantage13- in ui.xml search for "current_video" and comment out the container
[05:22:36] Captain_Murdoch: GreyFoxx: maybe they're off coding the "quick-change" patch. :)
[05:22:42] jams: you will still have the box, but no video
[05:22:44] GreyFoxx: Captain_Murdoch: Must be
[05:23:01] Captain_Murdoch: don't know where "greay" came from.... :(
[05:23:10] banyan: Is it "autocommflagwhilerecording"?
[05:23:15] Captain_Murdoch: yes
[05:23:40] banyan: xris: you're surprised that the 350 playback works?
[05:23:51] mchou: Captain_Murdoch: why not just call that field "flagwhilerecording" :)
[05:23:56] Captain_Murdoch: see, I never use the word "realtime" in the code... :)
[05:23:59] xris: banyan: yes. it's not exactly maintained.
[05:24:09] jams: GreyFoxx- well done on the -G flag you added. Very useful!
[05:24:21] banyan: What would be involved if I took it over?
[05:24:32] Captain_Murdoch: mchou: because it only applies for auto-commflagging. if you manually flag, it will run when it can, whether it is recording or not.
[05:24:39] banyan: Keeping in mind that while I've used myth for a long time, I haven't written a lick of code for it.

[05:24:44] mchou: Captain_Murdoch: ok
[05:24:56] GreyFoxx: Captain_Murdoch: I dropped my channel change time from 2–3 seconds down to just under 1 second earlier by messing with an ivtv setting
[05:25:04] GreyFoxx: no actualy code changes heh
[05:25:18] xris: banyan: no clue. I think that with the new X driver for the 350, no one cares anymore that mythtv would support it natively.
[05:25:19] Captain_Murdoch: it's probably Myth's fault somehow though. ;)
[05:25:23] GreyFoxx: yeah hehe
[05:25:27] xris: I think it's more a matter of supporting the framebuffer output mode.
[05:26:14] banyan: xris: that's just for framebiffer support. That's not for the playback itself.
[05:26:31] banyan: Unless I misunderstand the thinking on that...

[05:26:56] rothgar: GreyFoxx: so I edited the my.cnf like you said and restarted the backend box and made sure it could still run the frontend too. The separate frontend box still doesn't connect :(
[05:27:05] rothgar: let me see if the error is still the same
[05:27:08] xris: banyan: I don't know much about it. the way I understand it, they were somehow integrated
[05:27:18] banyan: Oh, ok...
[05:27:40] banyan: I'm puzzled but OK.
[05:28:17] banyan: And that X driver, I thought, was going to remove the need for the framebuffer, but it actually works over the framebuffer.
[05:28:50] banyan: Anyway, as a longtime 350 user, I really want to see continuing support for the 350.
[05:29:00] rothgar: www.pastebin.com/827877
[05:29:00] mchou: banyan: hehe
[05:29:04] rothgar: it is different this time
[05:29:24] banyan: Even if I have to buy somebody a 350 for them to work with.
[05:29:28] banyan: Or do it myself...
[05:29:32] xris: banyan: no clue. you could ask in #mythtv and see if anyone there knows.
[05:29:39] mchou: banyan: that's not really the "issue"
[05:29:41] xris: if you really want to help out, that is.
[05:29:57] banyan: It's not? I was told that was exactly the issue.
[05:30:16] mchou: banyan: I was referring to your offer of HW
[05:30:41] banyan: Yeah, I was told that none of the developers had a 350 so they didn't have any way of knowing how well it worked.
[05:31:14] banyan: Well, what is the issue then?
[05:31:19] mchou: banyan: who did most of the 350 code in myth anyways?
[05:31:22] GreyFoxx: no, it's not that they don't have any or access to them. IT's that none use them I beleive
[05:31:30] Vantage13: jams: yeah, it's the preview video causing it to crash. Any idea why that might be?
[05:31:42] mchou: yes, GreyFoxx is correct on that
[05:31:45] banyan: I don't know, mchou.
[05:32:01] hjohnson: whoa, videolan did something truely wierd to my video card
[05:32:05] mchou: banyan: not to mention 350 setup is a real PITA
[05:32:15] banyan: How so?
[05:32:42] mchou: banyan: and the playback payoff not worthwile
[05:32:45] banyan: See, the way I use mine, it's not a problem really... I use my video card / monitor for the frontend and just have the 350 out go to the tv.
[05:33:12] banyan: I tried using my nvidia card and the quality was just not there compared to the output on the 350.
[05:33:14] mchou: banyan: since it pretty much does mpeg2 only
[05:33:31] rtyler: hrm
[05:33:34] xris: banyan: that's weird. everything I've heard these days suggests the opposite.. well, for anything 5200 or newer
[05:33:42] rtyler: for some bloody reason the "hwup" process is crushing my machine
[05:33:47] banyan: This is an older nvidia card for sure.
[05:33:51] rtyler: I'm assuming its not myth related?
[05:33:52] xris: ah, yeah.
[05:34:04] xris: rtyler: nope
[05:34:17] hjohnson: when I first booted, i could go 'cat /dev/video0 > foo.mpg' and get a perfect mpeg video
[05:34:22] rothgar: what would not allow my user to connect to mysql?
[05:34:33] rtyler: rothgar: luck like mine :'(
[05:34:34] mchou: rothgar: permissions
[05:34:42] banyan: Originally I wanted to use the dvi out to my sony tube hdtv ready television but that was a pain in the butt.
[05:34:45] hjohnson: I ran videolan on the device, now i'm gettin black and white only, and statically audio
[05:34:51] hjohnson: I don't know what videolan has done to it
[05:35:02] banyan: so I tried the s-video out and it was bad, bad bad bad.
[05:35:10] rothgar: mchou: I followed the documentation to grant all to the database, but it still didn't work
[05:35:32] rothgar: rtyler: you are wrong, it is my own luck (probably worse than yours)
[05:35:32] mchou: rothgar: use mysqlclient to confirm
[05:35:50] rothgar: I have no idea what mysqlclient is :(
[05:36:11] mchou: rothgar: sheesh. do a lil bit of homework please
[05:36:18] banyan: just type mysql -u <user name> -p<password> (note there's no space between the -p and the password)
[05:36:22] rtyler: one might expect it to be a client of surts
[05:36:24] rtyler: sorts*
[05:36:54] banyan: but I expect you also have to give it some arguments to point it at the remote machine.
[05:36:56] jams: Vantage13- not really, just that vauge recollection of opengl doing it
[05:37:01] Vantage13: ok, so next problem. I have my change channel script setup and it works fine from the command line, but does nothing from within mythtv. Any idea how I can debug that?

[05:39:58] mchou: #lirc*
[05:40:55] banyan: Not much point since there is one person in it.
[05:41:05] darrenp: Anyone in the uk had trouble with bad recordings from mux2? (itv, e4, channel4, etc.)
[05:41:19] banyan: heh... just thought somebody in here might have their ear to the lirc grouind.
[05:41:23] darrenp: Can't watch live tv or recorded stuff from any channels on that mux.
[05:43:06] jams: Vantage13- the best way to debug that, is to place some debug commands in the changechannel script. I found it easiest to have the debug statements write to a file
[05:43:21] xris: I think it's #lirc-dev
[05:43:28] Captain_Murdoch: GreyFoxx: I just looked over the queuing code and can't see anything obvious as to why mythcommflag would get run if you had it turned off for a schedule.
[05:43:55] darrenp: It does seem to be recording the programs... I can watch a few seconds of it, then it crashes.
[05:45:39] Vantage13: jams: is there a way to confirm that the command is being called at all? My blaster blinks whenever it sends a signal, but of course it doesn't blink at all when called from mythtv at the moment

[05:49:46] rtyler: I figured out why myth couldn't connect to the backend
[05:50:06] rtyler: it seems that all the settings in the db were based on the IP address of the public interface
[05:50:20] rtyler: so when I took it off my office network, to the home network, everything broke -_-
[05:53:48] rtyler: anybody know how I can use mysql from the command line to get into the DB and update the ip address the backend expects? :/
[05:53:49] amessina: this has probably been an issue all day, but i can't seem to find the solution. datadirect has changed the channel lineup for digital ota broadcasts and now i am unable to tune to any of the multiplexed channels except the first one. anyone come up with a solution?

[06:07:05] Captain_Murdoch: why can't you just rerun mythtv-setup?

[06:07:39] jams: Vantage13- yeah
[06:08:16] Vantage13: jams: small problem with commenting out current_video from ui.xml. It's also used by PiP, so when I use that the backend dies :(
[06:08:38] Vantage13: jams: is their an xml file for just the program guide that could be edited to disable it?
[06:10:02] jams: That shold have only affect the program guide. If you enable it again PIP works?

[06:14:32] Vantage13: jams: you wouldn't think they were :)
[06:15:04] Captain_Murdoch: shouldn't be. only place I see current_video is in the programguide-video window definition. only place in the code that "current_video" container is used is in guidegrid.cpp
[06:15:37] jams: Captain_Murdoch- exactly, thats what I thought
[06:16:03] rtyler: this ATI TV Wonder's failure to work is as annoying as, say, blink
[06:16:11] ** rtyler giggles **
[06:16:25] jams: Vantage13- if this works for you thats great, but you still might want to send a backtrace to the mailing list
[06:16:27] Captain_Murdoch: if current_video container isn't defined then the video rect is set to 0,0,0,0 so it is still used, just very small. so just commenting that out might not work as a good test.

[06:46:19] rothgar: I am sorry, my frontend still is not connecting to the backend, is there anything else I can try or a setting I can change somewhere?
[06:47:13] Ross_C: did you set your backend box to be configured with a real IP — not 127.0.0.1? *and* update the DB to allow access from other hosts?
[06:47:51] rothgar: Ross_C: in the mysql.txt file?
[06:48:22] rothgar: oh, in mythtv-setup it is set to the real ip
[06:48:49] rothgar: and yes I updated the DB to allow connections (using the steps in the documentation)
[06:49:18] Ross_C: mythtv has very verbose log files – I'
[06:49:29] Captain_Murdoch: rtyler: does it list the magic numbers for the filesytem types?j If so, can you tell me the numbers for NFS and SMB? I want to compare it to Linux to make sure my patch will detect local vs remote filesystems on OSX like it currently can on Linux.
[06:49:30] PaulWay: rothgar: So you can do mysql -umythtv -pmythtv -hbackend mythconverg on the frontend and have it connect?
[06:49:32] Ross_C: I'm sure the log files on the frontend will tell you what's wrong -
[06:50:23] rothgar: here is the error when I try to connect http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?show=827877
[06:50:35] rothgar: my password is not mythtv according to the backend
[06:50:45] rothgar: or should I be connecting with that password?
[06:51:01] Ross_C: so.. change it
[06:51:10] rtyler: Captain_Murdoch: http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Darw . . . tatfs.2.html
[06:51:26] ** rothgar looks down in shame **
[06:52:00] rothgar: how do I change the password for mythtv?
[06:52:17] rothgar: or were you saying I should change what pass I am trying to connect with?
[06:52:43] Captain_Murdoch: rtyler: thanks, so it looks like I'd have to check f_fstypename on OSX instead of the f_type field I can check on Linux.
[06:52:55] Ross_C: either or – but it won't work until you supply a valid userid/pass from the frontend system
[06:53:20] rothgar: I am using the same password the backend uses to connect to itself though (that is why I am so confused)
[06:53:34] rothgar: I got the password from the mysql.txt file on the backend
[06:54:07] PaulWay: BTW, has anyone considered putting the necessary code in to tell XFS to preallocate space for the recording?

[07:11:57] PaulWay: CunningPike: I'd say it'd be up to recording and playback but transcoding and commercial detection might be a bit slow...
[07:12:09] xris: Captain_Murdoch: thanks.. I always want it to be called "display" or something like that.
[07:12:17] CunningPike: PaulWay: OK – thanks. Live TV would be a struggle then?
[07:12:21] rothgar: where is your "donate now" button :)

[07:13:53] CunningPike: PaulWay: OK – thanks, sounds like it's worth a shot :)
[07:13:59] PaulWay: xris: I gather that's because he doesn't like the "buy me a feature" concept?
[07:14:10] xris: yeah
[07:14:16] PaulWay: CunningPike: Put it this way: a Hauppauge card is a good investment anyway from what I understand of them.
[07:14:27] xris: or rather, the "I gave you money, why don't you do what I say?" bit.
[07:14:43] CunningPike: PaulWay: Yes – I have a couple of spare ones hanging around

[08:20:10] mjelva: beer is the liquid of gods
[08:20:21] anxt: i wonder if i can get hd cap card for canada soon
[08:20:33] anxt: we only have a digital cable provider in our area
[08:20:35] mjelva: vodka tastes hardly anything. and the little taste it has is crap
[08:20:35] mjelva: so you have to mix it with stuff
[08:20:46] anxt: i mix it with ice and water
[08:20:46] mjelva: where is that? siberia?
[08:20:52] anxt: canada
[08:20:54] mjelva: HUH, HUH? MISTER VODKA MAN?
[08:20:58] anxt: similar climate
[08:21:02] juski: anxt: for a while it's been very important to get the right ver. of nuvexport for your particular ver. of mythtv. dunno if that's still the case. oh and having a non-crippled ffmpeg helps too ;)
[08:21:20] anxt: juski: i just grabbed a "cvs" tarball it now works
[08:21:33] juski: of ffmpeg?
[08:21:34] anxt: ffmpeg is a bit fragile for comiles i have noticed
[08:21:49] anxt: naw ffmpeg move slow as a turtle for releases
[08:22:17] D-side: screw it. i'm going to bed. later boys.
[08:22:22] anxt: guess i should figure out how cutlist works and stripp out some commercials
[08:22:36] anxt: never bothered before i just hit "z" on remote
[08:24:21] juski: to avoid disappointment, edit your recordings to at least check the commercial cutlist is good before transcoding :)
[08:24:46] mjelva: what does nuvexport do?
[08:25:01] juski: nuvexport erm... exports mythtv recordings to various formats
[08:25:06] mjelva: k
[08:25:22] juski: it's a big bunch of Perl which does the job really well :)
[08:25:50] anxt: juski: oh yes, sometimes it misses bad, law and order seems to confuse it a bit
[08:26:06] anxt: i wonder if there is a 30 second chucnks algorythm
[08:26:11] anxt: that might help hits
[08:26:30] juski: in the google SoC someone started making a plugin called mythexport – basically something like nuvexport but with a qt gui
[08:26:31] anxt: like skip 7:23 bad skip 3:59 good
[08:26:53] anxt: export from frontend would be cool
[08:27:03] anxt: frontend is really cool, just weird
[08:27:07] anxt: too many menus
[08:27:17] anxt: i wish i could OSD mythweather
[08:27:27] anxt: or switch to music from tv with one button
[08:27:36] anxt: was trying to figure out how got nowhere
[08:28:09] juski: jump points :)
[08:28:22] anxt: is there a way to send a signal to the frontend?
[08:28:40] juski: use the mythcontrols plugin to map jump points to keys not already used by mythtv, then map your remote to those keyboard presses ;)
[08:28:52] juski: anxt: the telnet interface is the spiff
[08:28:52] anxt: really ...
[08:29:08] anxt: i could scipt some telnet shit really easy
[08:29:09] juski: anxt: you can also redefine keys in mythweb
[08:29:18] anxt: thank you sir.
[08:29:29] anxt: you may have made my myth experience a lot nicer
[08:29:36] juski: you don't have to script some telnet shit when there are jump points you can use though ;)
[08:29:40] anxt: you and a few hours of drinking and swearing
[08:29:51] anxt: this jump points is new to me

[08:48:52] anxt: lol
[08:48:55] mjelva: i'm extremely sceptical of missionaries going anywhere, especially africa

[08:49:32] anxt: why is that mjelva ?
[08:49:54] banyan: It's true. I got so tired of 'christians' I couldn't relate to or understand, who seemed mainly obsessed with a few things that have nothing to do with Jesus...
[08:49:57] anxt: (merely curious)
[08:50:13] mjelva: because as much as they may try to keep their religion to themselves, they never fully succeed
[08:50:23] anxt: banyan: i hear you i think that is called "religion"
[08:50:42] banyan: I decided I couldn't be one of those. So I'm a buddhist now.
[08:50:57] anxt: fair enough
[08:51:16] banyan: somebody else's political puppet... pthththt.
[08:51:34] anxt: many christians are way over the top obssessing over gay marriage or harry potter books, and not really showing love.
[08:51:58] juski: aren't they the ones who put the 'fun' into 'fundamentalism' ?
[08:51:59] juski: ;)
[08:52:21] anxt: heh
[08:52:44] banyan: I am the same way with missionaries... no way I give money to somebody who wants to slip in a little religion with their eye operations, or make homeless people sing a hymn for their supper.
[08:52:52] mjelva: god damn
[08:52:59] mjelva: i can't find it

[08:54:43] banyan: If you want to help, help. If you want to give people sermons, do that, but do it on your own nickel. Besides, usually international missionaries are sent up to soften the locals up for working at some transnational organisation.
[08:54:49] mjelva: a what?
[08:54:50] banyan: 15 bya?
[08:54:52] anxt: many of my "brothers and sisters" take exception to that stance
[08:55:02] anxt: 15 billion years opld
[08:55:12] anxt: bya is an anthro/paleo shorthand
[08:55:15] mjelva: only retards believe in that "young earth" crap
[08:55:36] anxt: mjelva: i wouldn't go as far as to say reteards, but it really doesn't add up for me

[08:56:01] mjelva: fine with me, but i'm quite adamant in calling anyone who completely rejects science so he can belive something some dude wrote in a book a retard.
[08:56:19] anxt: my stance is "god could done it 4000 years ago, but every indication is against it ..."
[08:57:08] juski: then again the 'fact' that all this came out of an infinitely tiny singularity ever so long ago is pushing believability a tad
[08:57:13] banyan: they're not seeing the big picture, they're missing the story for the details.
[08:57:16] anxt: like how the hell did the light get hear or causality from planetes millions or light years away (s/planets/stars/glaxies/)"
[08:57:19] mjelva: no one is claiming that, juski
[08:57:31] mjelva: or are they? <_<
[08:57:39] banyan: The big bang
[08:57:40] anxt: juski: the singularity is a problem for me without God
[08:57:45] juski: the 'big bang', anyone ?
[08:57:53] anxt: i am sort of believing God caused the singularity atm
[08:58:02] mjelva: i'm honestly not that informed about the big bang. i'm much more interested in evolution.
[08:58:08] anxt: because physicval laws break down
[08:58:15] anxt: at least relativity dfoesn't fit
[08:58:25] anxt: maybe m-theory helps explain but iu don't understand it
[08:59:33] mjelva: anxt: intelligent design is the last refuge of someone who fails to fool themselves any longer
[08:59:39] juski: whichever way I look at it, IMHO there had to be _something_ at the very beginning, so it boggles me to think about whatever the 'it' we all started from came from in the 1st place, and all the 'what-ifs'. So I guess I believe there's _something_ out there, maybe not a single benevolent entity.
[08:59:43] banyan: However, theis is the conclusion that people came to based on the facts.

[09:00:02] mjelva: and frankly, in some ways i consider intelligent design much more dangerous than the traditional biblical explanation.
[09:00:15] mjelva: intelligent design tries to sell itself as science, and many people believe it is
[09:00:43] banyan: Because it justifies the current state as some kind of preordained culmination.
[09:01:14] juski: the whole thing could be preordained for all most of us know
[09:01:18] anxt: sorry i didn't mean to troll yer channel
[09:01:21] mjelva: basically intelligent design preys upon the failings of science.
[09:01:25] anxt: i had an nuvexporrt issue
[09:01:30] juski: theology, on a Sunday?! never!
[09:01:30] mjelva: science certainly doesn't have all the answers, yet
[09:01:38] banyan: Nobody does.
[09:01:39] mjelva: but turning to the divine to fill the blanks is just obtuse
[09:01:39] anxt: i don't mind discussing ifd it doesn't offend anyone though
[09:02:21] juski: anxt: that's just the point. there's too little debate IMHO – too much "_this_ is right, you're wrong!"
[09:02:34] anxt: i can see an argument against throwin everything unexplainable under a diety as foolish
[09:03:14] anxt: i rejected the notion of a diety for most of my life, the last few years i have embraced it.
[09:03:53] banyan: There is a cat in Egypt who wills the world to turn.
[09:04:16] anxt: then again by definition science cannot adress the supernatural (ooutside of science) and that said science is all based on the assumption we actually exist
[09:04:34] mjelva: juski: i'm certainly willing to reconsider my stance, if you have some good arguments for intelligent design
[09:04:37] juski: haha
[09:04:42] banyan: If we don't exist, no souls, and no problem.
[09:04:48] anxt: i do assume i exist, because the bills i have seem to say so ...
[09:04:59] mjelva: anxt: science can never even open for the possibility of something supernatural
[09:05:08] mjelva: it just goes against everything science is
[09:05:18] anxt: mjelva: by definition yes
[09:05:22] mjelva: that isn't to say a divine creature would have to be supernatural, however
[09:05:37] juski: the problem is really that we're all human beings, and we have egos. The ego closes the mind
[09:05:53] anxt: mjelva: intereseting ... just would hafta exist outside of our understanding
[09:06:02] mjelva: no. not even that.
[09:06:08] anxt: to be "supernatural"
[09:06:10] juski: a true fool is the person who never even considers they might be wrong
[09:06:22] banyan: Because science is naturalist. If there is no evidence of it, it's not necessary to posit such a thing.
[09:06:38] mjelva: absence of evidence isn't evidence of absence, though

[10:33:12] mchou: well, at least bfg has a lifetime warranty
[10:33:54] Dagmar: I guess I can deal with having a card for two years, and I'll probably be able to get a mate for it at the end of the first one

[17:04:36] D-side: but, i hven't tried "firewire_tester"
[17:04:36] fryfrog: weird :?
[17:04:52] D-side: wait no. i have that.
[17:06:20] D-side: trying to use the -B flag with firewire_tester, to force broadcast if possible.

[17:10:23] savageone: any trick?

[17:15:37] savageone: what's the motion folder under video for?
[17:15:48] savageone: I pretty much just go to \myth and pop my vids under video
[17:16:05] savageone: and I switched my view in the media gallery here to jut show what's in the directory
[17:16:20] savageone: why would you want a database to have to be updated w/ the video names, especially since you need to go run it manually hehe
[17:16:59] Saviq: 'cause it can hold a lot of data
[17:17:10] Saviq: and show it to someone that doesn't know the movie
[17:18:46] savageone: hey
[17:18:51] savageone: while I got you here he's a question
[17:20:47] batdog is now known as batdog|gone
[17:21:10] savageone: how do you play a whole directory
[17:21:18] savageone: like say I have a directory of shos and I want it to just play
[17:21:26] savageone: or is there a random/shuffle type deal
[17:24:12] D-side: holy shit
[17:24:17] D-side: i think i just pulled my head out of my ass. afk

[17:27:36] savageone: yeah
[17:27:41] savageone: problem is I'm using knoppmyth
[17:27:56] savageone: which sort of makes u stick w;/ one version
[17:28:12] savageone: make no sense to me why there wouldn't at least be a way to play a whole directory

[17:28:36] savageone: I fucked myself by doing an update
[17:28:41] savageone: where do I make playlists tho
[17:28:50] savageone: shit even if i could run an autoplaylist makerizer
[17:28:51] GreyFoxx: savageone: You can't in mythvideo
[17:28:54] juski: you don't.. not yet at least
[17:29:03] savageone: cool
[17:29:08] savageone: I hope mythtv matures
[17:29:15] savageone: there's a lot of press and a writing on the wall
[17:29:20] juski: but playlists for xine & mplayer are just text files with lists of files
[17:29:34] juski: and you can associate different file types to different players
[17:29:40] juski: see where I'm going with this?
[17:30:09] D-side: fryfrog: f'ing device perms.
[17:30:12] D-side: like a god damn newbie

[17:30:42] juski: I just noticed some of my pvr150 recordings have stupid fuzzy audio
[17:30:50] savageone: juski: sure do
[17:30:58] savageone: what's the default video player knoppmyth is using
[17:31:01] savageone: and what about vlc?
[17:31:02] juski: recordings I made since I changed distro
[17:31:23] juski: savageone: check yourself by looking in the video player setup in mythfrontend
[17:31:32] savageone: k
[17:31:43] GreyFoxx: juski: Did you preserve the database and recording profiles or did you resetup those ?
[17:31:50] juski: GreyFoxx: kept them
[17:32:03] GreyFoxx: hmmm wonder if it's a different ivtv driver version then
[17:32:14] juski: set to record at 48khz, which was what'd fixed the problem I first had oh so long ago
[17:32:24] juski: so it must be either firmware or ivtv itself
[17:32:51] savageone: it's set for mplayer
[17:33:08] juski: I was trying out livetv earlier & that seemed totally fine. thats annoying
[17:33:13] savageone: mplayer -fs -zoom -quiet -vo xv %s
[17:33:19] savageone: as far as I can read on the screen
[17:33:23] savageone: you guys recommend mplayer?
[17:33:40] GreyFoxx: I use the myth Internal player myself for everything
[17:33:53] Zider: I use xine for dvds and mplayer for other
[17:33:57] Zider: no wait
[17:34:00] Zider: I used to :P
[17:34:03] juski: I'd be recommending 'Internal' if I could get digital audio to work properly, but I'm tired & can't be bothered to investigate it
[17:34:08] Zider: internal for dvd and mplayer for other now
[17:34:48] savageone: oh
[17:34:53] savageone: I didn't check dvds just videos
[17:34:57] savageone: I think it uses xine tho
[17:35:38] juski: savageone: dvd playback in the Internal player with 0.19 isn't quite 'there' yet
[17:35:45] Zider: I used to like xine because of menu support, but now the internal player is preferred because it can be controlled with kbd
[17:35:47] savageone: i wish I could rip dvds from mythweb
[17:35:52] savageone: i can burn em but not ripem
[17:35:58] savageone: you know hat sucks too
[17:36:06] savageone: is say ti's a dvd w/ episodes, like the southpark dvd
[17:36:09] savageone: and you don't rip it as iso
[17:36:12] savageone: it only grabs one episode
[17:36:30] savageone: and I'd rather have it rip to good for cartoons because why waste the space on high res if it's a cartoon
[17:36:41] savageone: I only do iso's for like action movies and things I would give a shit about quality for
[17:36:53] savageone: the music player is kind of strange too
[17:36:56] Darthy (Darthy!n=darthy@p54881E4B.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) has quit ()
[17:37:33] juski: yeah well I've sort of been brainstorming about that & making some mockups of improvements to it when I get around to it
[17:37:42] savageone: i hear you
[17:37:47] savageone: I was thinking like a jukebox makeup
[17:38:09] savageone: there was a project on spourceforge, I forget the name, but it had like a web jukebox deal going where people could choose songs and then they would play based on votes etc
[17:38:16] savageone: or just play random if there were no votes
[17:38:21] juski: I watched the BBC's 'click' earlier & I saw the PS3 interface. man that it slick!
[17:38:23] savageone: that'd be a great addition to mythtv imo
[17:38:24] juski: s/it/is
[17:38:47] savageone: I think the interface is fine until you get into certain parts
[17:38:52] D-side: haha i cant catch a break.
[17:38:53] savageone: know what I mean?
[17:39:01] savageone: d-side?
[17:39:06] D-side: now myth sees the firewire tuner but gives me zero-byte recordings
[17:39:13] savageone: haha
[17:39:15] juski: doesn't mean that ideas can't be pinched from it, savageone ;)
[17:39:25] savageone: oh of course
[17:39:30] savageone: is there a project manager for mythtv
[17:39:33] savageone: or any financial backing?
[17:40:04] GreyFoxx: financial? No
[17:40:16] savageone: that bites
[17:40:16] GreyFoxx: closest thing to a PM would be Isaac
[17:40:27] savageone: you guys familiar w/ asterisk and/or trixbox?
[17:40:31] savageone: what used to be asterisk@home?
[17:40:32] GreyFoxx: and for the most part devs just work on what they want
[17:40:41] GreyFoxx: yup
[17:40:56] savageone: well trixbox got big, like 10 thousand downloads a day
[17:41:13] savageone: and fonality, a HUGE provider of voip boxes not based on trixbox but based on asterisk w/ their own gui
[17:41:15] savageone: they bought them
[17:41:27] savageone: because, the writing on the wall was in a big font know what I mean?
[17:41:28] GreyFoxx: I'm aware of that too:)
[17:41:33] savageone: so now they have a project manager
[17:41:37] savageone: my bud Kerry Garrison
[17:41:48] savageone: and the original guy from trixbox, andrew, he's on payroll etc
[17:41:49] savageone: my thing is
[17:42:01] savageone: mythtv is in ALL sorts of magazines, tv shows, periodicals etc
[17:42:05] juski: you can't manage a project that doesn't want to be managed
[17:42:12] savageone: but no one has gone "wow, if I invest in this I'd make a good return"
[17:42:29] savageone: juski: you can't manager a project for 30 hours a week w/o getting compensated hehe
[17:42:32] juski: what tv shows is mythtv in other than 'systm' ?
[17:42:40] savageone: I would assume all the devs are highly capable, but have mouths to feed correct?
[17:42:53] GreyFoxx: certainly
[17:42:53] juski: nobody works on myth full time
[17:42:56] savageone: I've seen it mentioned on tech tv or whatever
[17:43:10] GreyFoxx: noone pays mymortgage but me :)
[17:43:15] savageone: i think game informer
[17:43:17] savageone: definitely wired
[17:43:24] juski: I think the fact it has so many loyal followers & users is somewhat of an accidental thing
[17:43:26] savageone: that's what I'm saying
[17:43:35] savageone: if someone could pay the developers, think how big mythtv would get?
[17:43:43] savageone: first off, anyone here ever play w/ windows mce?
[17:43:45] juski: like nobody set out to be a 'PVR app' star;)
[17:43:46] savageone: it fucking bites
[17:43:59] savageone: juski: loyal followers, due to cult worship ;)
[17:44:05] juski: yeah but it has a sweet setup routine
[17:44:10] juski: wizard-driven
[17:44:15] savageone: yeah
[17:44:18] savageone: but it doesn't do much
[17:44:20] savageone: after the fact
[17:44:26] savageone: mythtv is more driven by subversive peoples
[17:44:32] savageone: who think it's okay to "backup" dvds
[17:44:33] savageone: hehe
[17:44:38] savageone: and keep a "collection of mp3s"
[17:44:38] savageone: ;)
[17:44:40] juski: myth is configurable to the point of insanity, almost
[17:44:44] savageone: microsoft doesn't want that
[17:44:48] savageone: juski: exactly
[17:44:55] savageone: but if there were an official distro
[17:44:58] GreyFoxx: juski: Yeah, if it was up to me a lot of the optioons would disappear :)
[17:45:03] savageone: and someone prioritizing it's development
[17:45:15] GreyFoxx: There will never be an official distro
[17:45:20] juski: savageone: anyone could take the source & do their own thing with it, commercial or not
[17:45:22] kormoc: savageone, people have paid myth to add features before
[17:45:40] savageone: kormoc: yeah, sort of like a bounty setup like asterisk does?
[17:45:49] juski: god not bounties again
[17:45:56] kormoc: savageone, http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/dev/166419
[17:46:03] GreyFoxx: a company paid one of the devs to add the telnet interface
[17:46:09] juski: rich people don't necessarily have the best ideas
[17:46:44] savageone: hehe telnet?
[17:46:46] savageone: why not ssh
[17:46:48] savageone: fuck a telnet
[17:46:52] juski: savageone: you should read the 'post mortem' of our booth at the linuxworld expo man
[17:47:10] savageone: I'd like to get involved
[17:47:15] savageone: but I'm not a developer
[17:47:31] juski: I'm involved. I don't code
[17:47:36] savageone: werd
[17:47:41] savageone: I mean, I'm skilled in design
[17:47:44] kormoc: you can be involved in here, helping people get it setup and all that, make themes, stuff like that
[17:47:51] savageone: and I consider my ideas good in terms of interface setup etc
[17:47:59] savageone: kormoc: trying ;)
[17:48:04] savageone: I've got about 1 month into myth
[17:48:05] kormoc: write documentation in the wiki
[17:48:12] savageone: I'll be around and I'll do everything I can
[17:48:13] juski: mythtv needs more helpful friends ;)
[17:48:15] savageone: man, wikis rock
[17:48:26] savageone: I'm telling you, it's about the biggest innovation of the last few years
[17:48:28] kormoc: I need to finish my mythweb stats patches
[17:48:40] savageone: well, you guys all in this convo here have helped me at various times
[17:48:40] juski: don't just be a person who adds feature requests to the wiki pages
[17:48:58] savageone: I don't think we need more features
[17:49:02] juski: mythtv needs more people testing it above all I think
[17:49:15] kormoc: good testers that know how to write good reports, aye
[17:49:16] savageone: I think the main mistake a lot of these projects make is they add more and more features before the core features they have are perfected
[17:49:38] kormoc: meh, adding new 'features' is fine, as the plug-in style works out well
[17:49:38] savageone: I like the knoppmyth idea
[17:49:41] savageone: a lot of people use it
[17:49:43] savageone: it's easy
[17:49:50] savageone: let me ask you this
[17:50:01] juski: it's easy but it takes too long to boot for a usable frontend (in my case)
[17:50:03] savageone: where can I read about adding menu items so that I cna run more apps, like kde apps etc
[17:50:09] juski: in the wiki!
[17:50:15] kormoc: imagine that :P
[17:50:35] savageone: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
[17:50:40] savageone: this is the official wiki?
[17:50:43] kormoc: aye
[17:50:44] juski: yup
[17:52:02] juski: there's always a good debate to be had about how a project should attract developer talent & use user input – encouraging development is kind of a vicious circle
[17:52:49] savageone: oh of course
[17:52:58] savageone: I'm of the mind that you try to mimic other successful projects
[17:53:05] savageone: I mean, in the open source world of dvr, myth is king
[17:53:06] savageone: period
[17:53:08] savageone: feevo is lame
[17:53:13] savageone: what else is there? know what Imean
[17:53:24] juski: a team has been assembled to 'make mythtv rock in ubuntu' & some great things are gonna happen there, primarily through documentation & debconf configuration
[17:53:40] savageone: I'll keep my eye out for that
[17:53:44] savageone: I think ubuntu is awesome
[17:53:52] savageone: the add/remove programs interface is key
[17:53:58] savageone: good emphasis on media
[17:54:00] savageone: content is king
[17:54:03] juski: getting hardware working properly in ubuntu is still a major hurdle though
[17:54:09] juski: despite its ease of use
[17:54:30] savageone: yeah
[17:54:31] savageone: some stuff
[17:54:32] juski: but that too can be addressed
[17:54:36] savageone: it's good on most laptops
[17:54:47] savageone: yeah, they got their african billionaire on the case rfoflmao
[17:54:58] savageone: man how the hell do I get youtube on here
[17:55:04] savageone: this streaming thing makes no sense to me
[17:55:24] savageone: I choose something, like nasa tv, it says it's buffering then gives me a list of urls, and then I choose one and it just sits there
[17:55:29] juski: one big one is udev & being able to guarantee your DVB tuner appears on a certain device node where your pvr card appears on a different one – and every time they come up at tha same place. maybe not for multiple cards of the same time, but certainly for different ones
[17:56:05] juski: jees I'm not taking any more sunday afternoon naps. I'm half asleep here
[17:56:18] savageone: haha
[17:56:20] savageone: it's 1 here
[17:56:26] savageone: i'm east coast
[17:56:30] savageone: EAST SYIIIIIIIIIDE hehe
[17:56:57] juski: by about half way through the week I'll be about ready to release a beta of this: www.juski.co.uk/pg/comingsoon.htm

[18:02:46] juski: I dunno if you can add more than one group at a time though. never tried that
[18:03:03] savageone: my thing was when I was messing w/ mythtv i had chose a bunch of random shows to record
[18:03:05] savageone: just to test it
[18:03:13] savageone: and thenI had like 50 gbs of random shows I didn't want
[18:03:24] savageone: plus, on that time I'd messed up my channel lineup so the files were mis named

[18:15:48] frankrizzo: im also having problems with transcoding where it fails with "status 247"
[18:16:00] frankrizzo: which from what I can tell is an unknown error
[18:16:45] frankrizzo: not sure where I should go from here. I can try reinstalling mythtv, go back to 0.19
[18:17:15] frankrizzo: or rather, go to 0.19 for the first time, 0.20 was the first time I used mythtv

[19:15:01] wwalker: if I'm Not doing high def, that is for plain def, on a Pentium D, what is the cheapest card that will do capture? I assume the Pentium D is fast enough I don't need a hardware encoder?

[19:15:46] kormoc: wwalker, sure, but uh, hardware encoders look way better then software encoders do
[19:15:49] frankrizzo: okay, so it works with high quality transcoder
[19:15:59] frankrizzo: but if you tell it low or medium, it gives status 247
[19:16:00] kormoc: wwalker, and it's only a little bit of price difference
[19:16:14] frankrizzo: with high quality, the recording went from 1.1 gigs to 2.2
[19:16:14] juski: like on bttv tuners where you don't get audio capture, you need a soundcard PER tuner to capture audio
[19:16:19] wwalker: kormoc, I thought the difference was like $50 to $200
[19:16:24] kormoc: not at all

[19:16:30] kormoc: a pvr 150 is like $65

[19:20:43] fryfrog: for backend only, a p2 500 + pvr150 will capture just fine

[20:02:57] fryfrog: that doesn't make much of a different, its the xmltv id you have to match
[20:03:00] fryfrog: which sounds like the problem
[20:03:10] fryfrog: you use live tv, switch to the hd input with "y"
[20:03:15] fryfrog: then, i think hit "e" for edit
[20:03:30] squish102: ok
[20:03:34] fryfrog: now, when you tune to 6_1 which it thinks is 23, look up the xmltv id for 23 and stick it there
[20:03:47] fryfrog: its prolly easier to do it all in the db, using say phpmyadmin if you have it
[20:03:59] juski: you can edit channels in livetv? ooo
[20:04:01] fryfrog: and i'm not sure if there is an easy way to get labs.zap2it.com to *show* you the xmltv id
[20:04:11] juski: so livetv _does_ have a use after all
[20:04:13] fryfrog: yeah, like the title, xmlid and a few other fields
[20:04:14] squish102: yip i have it, but how do i get the xmltv id
[20:04:35] fryfrog: look at the channel table, find a channel you recognize by name like WSBTVDT2
[20:04:40] fryfrog: and then find the xmltvid column
[20:05:39] squish102: thanks let me try scratching around
[20:06:20] juski: well I think my assumption about the --prefix thing must be along the right lines

I have been looking on the mailing list archive, but cant find anything useful for my particular problem
[20:18:20] gmad: look only at the code – description of problem in polish
[20:18:28] fryfrog: are you using very recent nvidia drivers? have you used eselect to pick the nvidia opengl?
[20:18:32] juski: frankrizzo: trouble stems from using 2 different ways of installing packages on your FC box
[20:18:41] frankrizzo: ive only used yum
[20:18:43] fryfrog: and why are you compiling 0.19 instead of 0.20?
[20:18:58] frankrizzo: on fedora 5
[20:19:09] gmad: I have nvidia drivers and added nvidia to configure
[20:19:25] juski: gmad: why are you not using the ebuilds?
[20:19:45] gmad: I am using official ebuild
[20:20:26] juski: looks like a problem with the glx libraries/headers that the ebuild has pulled in
[20:20:27] fryfrog: gmad: 0.20 is in portage, but maybe it is masked or ~?
[20:20:41] fryfrog: gmad: is that *your* error? or someone elses?
[20:20:53] gmad: yes. 0.20 is masked, but it's the same with 0.20
[20:21:06] fryfrog: try switching your opengl to x11
[20:21:06] juski: is 'opengl' in your USE flags?
[20:21:12] fryfrog: yeah, that too

[21:49:57] Anduin: geekzoid: Yeah, if it is in the recording when you play with another player it is probably ivtv

[21:58:40] fryfrog: and i don't see any "adding blah blah blah as client" when i hit my mythweb

[21:59:33] xris: fryfrog: shouldn't be. just firewall perms

[23:52:45] savageone: i tried mounting to just myth anyway
[23:52:50] GreyFoxx: You can mount a share, not a subdirectory of a share
[23:52:56] savageone: it was letting me mount folders before I thought
[23:52:58] savageone: grey:
[23:53:03] GreyFoxx: so just make another share as "video"
[23:53:05] savageone: u able to help me with this ripping issue
[23:53:13] savageone: I'm going fucking nuts
[23:54:06] GreyFoxx: I don't really rip stuff, I think I've used it 3 times since it wsadded to myth and that was just to test stuff
[23:54:25] GreyFoxx: Maybe mtd isn't running ?
[23:54:30] savageone: naw man
[23:54:32] savageone: check this out
[23:54:40] savageone: I renamed the file name to rip to and it let it rip
[23:54:56] savageone: so that leads me to believe there was a remnant for this in the mysql database under the files name
[23:55:12] GreyFoxx: there likely is, but I don't know offhand what table
[23:55:15] savageone: because it started messing up when I rebooted in the middle of ripping

[23:56:32] savageone: so let's see how this goes

[23:57:00] GreyFoxx: JPAULEY: Do you mean have the other user startand app and it appears on the myth users X session? OR have the myth user start oit and it runs as ifit was the other user ?
