[00:53:54] poningru: trying to figure out which card to buy for hdtv atsc-8vsb pci interface dont need mpeg2 encoding on card as my proc is amd64
[00:54:11] poningru: any recomendations?
[00:59:20] knowledgejunkie: poningru: the pchdtv cards are popular in the US – the HD-5500 should be okay
[00:59:34] poningru: hmm
[00:59:36] poningru: looking
[00:59:52] juski: you'd be lucky to find a card that does atsc & has an mpeg2 encoder anyway – if such a card even exists ;) HDTV without exception, always comes ready encoded, whether that be from a PCI card, USB device, firewire or that HDHomerun thing :)
[01:00:22] poningru: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/PcHDTV_HD-5500 this one?
[01:00:43] poningru: juski: oh doh thats right
[01:00:48] knowledgejunkie: yep
[01:01:03] poningru: well I was refering to analog but I see what you mean
[01:01:11] poningru: I would need this card to do ntsc capture as well
[01:01:41] knowledgejunkie: poningru: it has an ntsc tuner too (non-hardware encoding)
[01:01:48] juski: FWIW I'd be tempted to go for separate tuners for those duties
[01:02:23] poningru: juski: reason?
[01:02:42] juski: hybrid cards can be a whole mess o hassle, is all IMHO
[01:03:01] knowledgejunkie: poningru: more flexibility if nothing else
[01:03:19] poningru: oh hmm
[01:03:54] poningru: unfortunately this shuttle pc only has 1 pci and 1 agp slot
[01:04:02] poningru: so cant do two cards
[01:04:17] poningru: well I can...
[01:04:23] juski: well you do know that if you go for the hd-5500 card you can't do SD & HD at the same time right...
[01:04:25] poningru: but it would probably be a tight fit
[01:04:41] poningru: juski: I cant switch back forth?
[01:05:02] poningru: and*
[01:05:25] juski: yes you can, but only do one type at a time
[01:05:45] juski: so you can't record HDTV & then watch SDTV at the same time
[01:05:45] poningru: oh meh
[01:05:48] juski: or vice-versa
[01:05:53] poningru: right

[01:07:22] poningru: I'm assuming that card will work under 2.6.20
[01:09:31] juski: it should work well in kernels older than that too :)

[01:09:45] juski: mikeones: yup
[01:09:52] wastrel: hi what's sd?
[01:09:53] juski: record/watch
[01:09:58] poningru: wastrel: standard def
[01:10:09] poningru: aka normal ntsc/pal
[01:10:09] wastrel: thx
[01:10:23] mikeones: the pvr 500 does not record qam right?
[01:10:53] juski: just analogue SDTV
[01:11:19] mikeones: :)
[01:11:51] poningru: gaah I cant believe the fcc would do this
[01:12:25] poningru: why didnt they go the euro way
[01:12:47] mikeones: I am toying with the idea of a Nexus-S and f2a in my myth box.
[01:15:10] juski: the euro way? we don't even have much HDTV yet man
[01:16:21] ben_goodger: it's great in UK
[01:17:00] ben_goodger: we have about five HDTV channels, and all are only available with Newscorp's satellite broadcaster for an extra $40 a month or something
[01:17:17] poningru: juski: dvb
[01:17:30] poningru: wth
[01:17:33] juski: DVB isn't all that great believe me
[01:17:37] poningru: ben_goodger: are you the real ben goodger?
[01:17:46] poningru: as in used to work on ff ben?
[01:17:58] juski: so we get 'more' channels than with analogue, but not many of said 'more' channels are really worth having
[01:18:01] ** ben_goodger bangs head on desk **
[01:18:10] ben_goodger: FFS, NO!
[01:18:16] poningru: huh?
[01:18:16] ben_goodger: right, that's sorted
[01:18:24] poningru: rofl
[01:18:39] ben_goodger: poningru: we only have four channels on analogue terrestrial.
[01:19:11] poningru: see the reason for dvb-t not being as prevelant as atsc vsb8 here in the US is because the us govt is requiring the channels to upgrade
[01:19:15] poningru: as in the fcc is forcing them
[01:19:23] ben_goodger: however, we do not use an utterly shitty colour encoding system with our SDTV, so it looks all right
[01:19:35] poningru: or else off with their license
[01:19:58] ben_goodger: heh
[01:20:49] ben_goodger: I don't think you need much of a license to set up a satellite broadcasting station here, but there are only three prominent TV-proper broadcasters and two of them are public service
[01:22:31] poningru: well the big difference being that tv business here is actually profitable, what with 2/5 of it being advertz
[01:22:40] poningru: and then on top of that product placement
[01:23:20] juski: ben_goodger: we have five channels on analogue terrestrial but in most places the 5th channel is on a different mast & at a lower power so you effectively need 2 aerials :-P
[01:23:58] ben_goodger: juski: you're in the UK?
[01:24:01] ben_goodger: juski: I'm in cornwall. we don't get five
[01:24:03] knowledgejunkie: juski: some people stil deny the existence of five...
[01:24:11] ben_goodger: as in Channel Five, not 5
[01:24:18] juski: lol

[01:28:09] ben_goodger: however, I do know that our cambridge is better than yours too
[01:28:35] ben_goodger: but for some inexplicable reason, the self-service checkouts in supermarkets in MA and UK are identical
[01:29:31] juski: gawd those self service checkouts.. makes you appreciate the skill of the experienced scanner operators lol
[01:30:00] juski: that said they'd go much faster without the STUPID animations they insist on showing after every item scan.. grrr
[01:30:16] ben_goodger: they cut them short, you know
[01:30:19] ben_goodger: if you scan something else
[01:30:59] ben_goodger: but not if you haven't Placed The Item In Bagging Area, in which case your red light goes on and an attendant bustles over
[01:31:01] juski: not these ones

[02:53:13] rooaus: I have a lot of music specials and I am worried about them accidentally getting deleted.
[02:53:34] knowledgejunkie: rooaus: move them to a hidden recording group
[02:54:47] rooaus: I proposed on the mailing list a "Delete Protect" or similar that would disable deletes from the various dialogues etc. but got the impression it wouldn't be considered for SVN.
[02:56:04] rooaus: I like the hidden recording group idea, but when you exit the recording or in the delete record screen there would still be an option to delete it though, wouldn't there?
[02:57:39] knowledgejunkie: showing the Delete option after watching it is an option

[02:58:27] knowledgejunkie: ... and the delete recordings screen will do what it states – you shouldn't need to be in there much (I never use it)
[02:59:03] rooaus: knowledgejunkie: The problem got me thinking about mytharchive... maybe it could be used to "archive to file" in the video folder as a native archive.
[02:59:23] knowledgejunkie: rooaus: you could do that – then reimport it if you need to
[02:59:33] rooaus: knowledgejunkie: Then a patch could be written for mythvideo to recognise then recordingname.xml file to get the meta data
[03:01:45] knowledgejunkie: rooaus: do you just want it out of the recordings list?
[03:02:07] rooaus: knowledgejunkie: I use the delete option when exiting a recording, I am worried about "force of habit". ESC -> Downx2 -> OK. I lost a recording that way once.
[03:03:28] knowledgejunkie: the menu that appears when you exit a recording is an option that you can turn off
[03:03:54] rooaus: knowledgejunkie: I like to be able to view it from the watch recordings, it presents the metadata well etc and is a convenient way to access recorded stuff, although using mythvideo is OK.
[03:03:55] knowledgejunkie: the menu that you can display when navigating the watch recordings list will always contain the delete option

[03:05:14] knowledgejunkie: rooaus: there is a frontend option to display the popup menu when exiting/finishing watching a recording
[03:05:44] rooaus: knowledgejunkie: My original thought was to add a DeleteProtect field to the recorded programs table and then get the various dialogues to gray out the delete options if DeleteProtect is on.
[03:06:49] rooaus: The option to set/unset deleteprotect would in the StoarageOptions to toggle it.
[03:06:56] knowledgejunkie: rooaus: sounds sensible – you'd need a GUI to allow it to be toggled
[03:07:08] knowledgejunkie: rooaus: sounds good again
[03:08:18] knowledgejunkie: i think that would be committed
[03:09:04] knowledgejunkie: you'd probably also want it to disable autoexpire for any items you mark as protected
[03:09:09] rooaus: knowledgejunkie: I didn't think the idea got a favourable response on the mailing list, most people suggested other ways to achieve a similar outcome, maybe I will test the waters again.
[03:09:42] rooaus: knowledgejunkie: Yeah, autoexpire would need to account for it, mythweb would also need to honour the flag.

[03:13:52] knowledgejunkie: rooaus: reading the thread, whilst it would be useful to have multi-user functionality, I think it would be very useful to have the delete protection *in addition* to the user stuff
[03:14:11] knowledgejunkie: rooaus: otherwise, who's going to protect the user from themself?
[03:15:39] rooaus: knowledgejunkie: The multi-user functionality is beyond my C++ skills, but I probably could get this done.
[03:17:03] knowledgejunkie: rooaus: the SoC stuff has been a general failure across the board – I would look into getting the deletion protection working stably and then attach it to an enhancement ticket
[03:17:44] rooaus: knowledgejunkie: I can really only test after my wife has gone to bed (only got the single BE/FE), makes for a slow dev cycle. :(

[08:05:36] Trentster: Oh I am using vga out on an nvidia 5200 card
[08:06:05] knowledgejunkie: xvidtune?
[08:09:46] Trentster: knowledgejunkie, can u elaborate?
[08:10:11] knowledgejunkie: you can run xvidtune to 'tune' your X server display
[08:10:37] knowledgejunkie: this includes the positioning of the image
[08:11:39] Trentster: knowledgejunkie, thanks, thought it might be a modeline issue
[08:12:07] adante: Trentster: whats your input to tv?
[08:12:08] knowledgejunkie: xvidune will allow you to create a 'better' modeline
[08:13:06] knowledgejunkie: also check whether your TV has any kind of image alignment option
[08:14:56] Trentster: adante, the tv has vga in, thats what i am using
[08:16:37] Trentster: Slightly off topic, if i am receiving dvb-t digital broadcasts, i noticed that when there is fast motion i can see little seperated lines on the screen, i assume its got to do with progressive scan, I thought this was not an issue when going from digital to digital?
[08:17:38] adante: Trentster: ok, um probably want to look at the overscan options.. i believe there is a util to do it in nvidia (although, 20% off centre seems quite extreme)
[08:18:30] adante: Trentster: as to the lines, unfortunately that is due to interlacing (the digital signal is interlaced) – try some of the de-interlacing options in.. somewhere
[08:18:36] adante: settings -> playback i think
[08:18:39] knowledgejunkie: Trentster: you need to deinterlace the stream if your video card cannot sync interlaced output properly with your TV
[08:18:43] Trentster: adante, I cant find it anywhere in the nvidia-settings looks like it is no longer there...

[09:38:52] Dagmar: Trentstar: There's all sorts of information on the wiki about how to accellerate playback
[09:39:10] Dagmar: meteor-500: read the instructions for how to install MythTV.

[09:40:47] meteor-1500: err no it works fine in tvtime and stuff when i turn on analog mix on output
[09:40:54] meteor-1500: i've got that muted on output for mythtv
[09:41:19] Dagmar: Well, you've managed to route the audio into a loop somehow
[09:41:45] meteor-1500: i think it's because mythtv is turning pcm input up when i go into watch tv mode
[09:41:45] Trentster: Dagmar, can you be a bit more specific
[09:42:09] Dagmar: Trentster: No. You're asking me to tell you everything there is about video playback.
[09:42:11] meteor-1500: if i turn it down manually the loop stops
[09:42:27] Dagmar: meteor-1500: So don't turn that slider up anymore.
[09:42:40] meteor-1500: Dagmar: it's doing it automatically when i enter watch tv mode
[09:42:56] Dagmar: Using what type of tuner card?
[09:43:01] meteor-1500: saa7134
[09:43:07] Dagmar: Who _makes_ it
[09:43:17] Dagmar: ...as in make/model
[09:43:25] meteor-1500: lifeview flyvideo 300
[09:44:01] meteor-1500: 3000 even
[09:44:11] Dagmar: So it's a framegrabber card
[09:44:18] meteor-1500: yeah

[09:44:43] meteor-1500: it seems it'd work fine if i could just get mythtv to stop turning up pcm
[09:44:43] Dagmar: ...which means you're either using a cable to patch it's audio output to your line in, or it should have it's own mixer device
[09:44:58] meteor-1500: nah cable to patch it into line 2 of the sound card
[09:45:04] Dagmar: So go into the setup menus in the frontend and change it to control the volume on the Master channel
[09:45:08] Dagmar: This is in the installtion documentation.
[09:45:09] meteor-1500: ah ok
[09:46:41] meteor-1500: ok done, but it's still turned up input pcm
[09:47:06] meteor-1500: it swapped the volume control from output pcm to output master, but input pcm is still going up to 100% auto
[09:48:06] Dagmar: Installation...
[09:48:08] Dagmar: ...documentation.
[09:52:42] Trentster: Dagmar, I am trying to ascertain if i am having some type of hardware issue, I am not trying to tweak and optomize the system yet, I just want to know if with my hardware I should be able to watch live tv..if the answer is yes then i have a hardware issue.
[09:53:05] Dagmar: You never mentioned the _important_ part, namely, the type and model of your video card.
[09:53:25] knowledgejunkie: Trentster: enable xvmc on your 5200
[09:53:32] Dagmar: An AGP nVidia 5200 should be able to play back 1080 from a DVD when it's configured properly.
[09:54:05] Trentster: knowledgejunkie, thanks..is that done in mythfrontend or elsewhere?
[09:54:29] Trentster: knowledgejunkie, you think my problem might be a hardware problem or an irq issue?
[09:54:34] Dagmar: Man you'd swear that people think reading documentation makes the penis fall of

[09:55:14] knowledgejunkie: Trentster: are you using the nvidia driver?
[09:55:17] Trentster: Dagmar, what document/ site you want me to read, and ill read it gladly.....
[09:55:26] Trentster: knowledgejunkie, yes im using nvidia
[09:55:45] meteor-1500: using the documentation from the website
[09:56:20] knowledgejunkie: Trentster: and is xvmc working?
[09:57:10] Trentster: knowledgejunkie, How do i tell if xvnc is working, and where do i check if its enabled...do i enable it under " nvidia-settings or in mythtv itself?
[09:59:25] knowledgejunkie: Trentster: your X log should mention it, plus you can test with xine and mplayer, in addition to mythtv
[09:59:36] siXy: Trentster: mplayer -vo xvmc [some file]
[09:59:50] Trentster: siXy, thanks
[10:02:08] knowledgejunkie: Trentster: for xine, I think it's xine -V xxmc <filename>
[10:02:50] knowledgejunkie: Trentster: to check mythtv, start the frontend from a terminal with the '-v important,general,playback' option and look out for XvMC messages
[10:06:18] juski: Trentster: if you're in the UK & you're gonna be trying to play h.264 HDTV, good luck!

[14:31:56] my2keh: ha just kidding :P
[14:32:09] faugusztin: my2keh: well, try to look what directories do you have on root partition
[14:32:15] faugusztin: and then du is your friend :-)
[14:32:35] my2keh: yeah, I'm doing du -h right now
[14:32:58] Dagmar: How about `du -s /*`
[14:33:21] Dagmar: Generally a bit more useful to narrow it down to a few things rather than 4,000 lines
[14:34:17] my2keh: I don't get how / can be 100% full, but /myth is only 40%
[14:34:30] Dagmar: Because / and /myth are different filesystems
[14:34:32] laga: my2keh: it's prolly /var/log/
[14:35:12] my2keh: lots of stuff in /var/log/mysql
[14:35:16] my2keh: can I just delete
[14:35:18] my2keh: 1.4 G?
[14:36:13] my2keh: since it's just logs?
[14:36:41] laga: is it *bin* files?
[14:36:41] my2keh: thye are binary, can't even read them heh
[14:36:47] my2keh: yes
[14:36:52] my2keh: mysql-bin.000098
[14:36:55] my2keh: for example

[19:53:06] ben_goodger: or whichever mountpoint
[19:56:53] GlemSom: hmm – it would be nice to get some sort of "menu".. Like you get on a regular DVD player...
[19:58:02] GlemSom: It would be possible to write a script that can mount the device – and determine if it's a DVD og a DVD packed with xvids and stuff...
[19:58:34] GlemSom: And it's easy to launch a DVD player like mplayer og xine then – but I still don't know what to do about DVD's containing video files... /:
[19:58:53] GreyFoxx: normally one would mount them, then access the files just like on adrive
[19:59:10] GreyFoxx: or use automount to auto mount the drive when it's popped into the drive
[20:02:30] GlemSom: then one would have to goto configuration -> movie option.. (To refresh the list) And then back to medialibrary ? (Sorry – don't know it that's exactly what it's called in english... I use a Danish locale)
[20:02:55] GreyFoxx: You don't have to import them with the Video Manager
[20:03:04] GreyFoxx: If you configure mythvideo to browse the filesystem
[20:03:18] GreyFoxx: just include the place you automount as part of where mythvideo browses
[20:07:00] GlemSom: GreyFoxx, hmm that sounds nice... I'll have to look into that... Thanks! :)

[20:36:16] petre: got some newbie questions regarding my pvr500: It's got 2 tuners--can they both be fed by a single input, say, an antenna?
[20:36:18] SiD3WiNDR: call me stupid but which keyboard button is the info button :/
[20:36:31] SiD3WiNDR: petre: yes, there is one physical connector on the card
[20:36:58] hugolp (hugolp!n=jo@89.129.149.252) has left #mythtv-users ()
[20:37:21] petre: but there's also composite video/audio inputs; could I tie one tuner to the antenna, the other to the composite?
[20:37:58] SiD3WiNDR: a "tuner" afaik is just for antenna/cable, composite is just composite
[20:38:01] SiD3WiNDR: but don't quote me on that
[20:38:22] petre: oh, sure, that makes sense now that you say it
[20:38:28] jvs (jvs!n=jvs@cm64-247.liwest.at) has quit ("Leaving")
[20:38:52] SiD3WiNDR: what makes me unsure about that statement is that the way I say it it sounds like you can use 2 tuners AND another composite as well, and I'm not sure you can
[20:38:58] SiD3WiNDR: I have such a card but I'm still setting it all up
[20:39:14] laga: SiD3WiNDR: info button might be "i", see keys.txt
[20:39:35] SiD3WiNDR: "i" doesn't do much, first I tried
[20:39:41] petre: well, I just got mine yesterday and am not quite grokking what all the various pieces do
[20:39:56] laga: petre: www.ivtvdriver.org has lots of good information
[20:40:01] laga: i've got to go, cya tomorrow
[20:40:11] SiD3WiNDR: thanks for the keys.txt tip, has way more info than http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-11.html :)

[20:50:15] petre: under input connections I see both video0 and video1, which are my two tuners
[20:51:13] petre: do I set Tuner1 for each to the Antenna video source I setup earlier?

[22:55:54] SiD3WiNDR: Pryon: okay, got a bit sidetracked, but now I indeed have my movies in the video list – thanks!
[22:56:18] SiD3WiNDR: is there a way to automate the update of the database ? or do I really have to enter video manager when I add new movies to that storage directory :(
[22:56:30] SiD3WiNDR: also, is imdb data broken since imdb redesign? or do I have another problem
[22:56:50] GreyFoxx: SiD3WiNDR: Automate no, but you can tell mythvideo to browse the FS as well as use the db metadata
[22:57:38] SiD3WiNDR: ahh
[22:57:45] SiD3WiNDR: I guess that would be good too
[22:57:54] SiD3WiNDR: though a daily update would maybe be a nice feature?
[22:58:06] SiD3WiNDR: GreyFoxx: is that option available through the setup dialogs?
[22:59:05] hads: You can cron the find_meta.py script
[22:59:27] kormoc: SiD3WiNDR, also the mythweb video interface in trunk can also scan, and can be added to cron or the like
[22:59:40] SiD3WiNDR: hads: that's the sort of thing I'm looking for :)
[23:00:13] hads: You'll find it in the scripts directory of mythvideo in trunk, I think it works for 0.20
[23:00:26] SiD3WiNDR: but I don't have that file, probably because I'm running the debian package ;/

[23:00:46] clever: mythweb is crashing again
[23:01:31] kormoc: clever, first of all, you've been told what that error means so stop asking bout it in here, second, update all myth components in sync
[23:01:48] kormoc: and third, it's not crashing, it's giving an error and exiting
[23:01:54] kormoc: as is proper
[23:02:05] clever: kormoc: and 4th why does rebooting the backend fix it for a short while?
[23:02:21] clever: once i reboot the backend it stops complaining
[23:02:24] hads: Is there any way that the ffmpeg sync could have caused issues with crossing program boundries in livetv? It's the only commit I can see that is related.
[23:02:27] clever: making it seem like they are all the same version

[23:02:43] clever: then why does it crash again after a random delay?
[23:02:47] SiD3WiNDR: I just tried to update imdb.pl as per the wiki so i've now got the trunk version, but mythvideo is still not showing any imdb data, all unknown :(
[23:02:50] SiD3WiNDR: anything else I missed?
[23:02:52] clever: without any svn updates?
[23:03:02] kormoc: clever, cause your db is corrupt? it's not a mythweb issue tho
[23:03:22] clever: what part of the db is corupt?
[23:03:38] kormoc: clever, perhaps the settings table, the one that stores the db schema version
[23:03:51] clever: .
[23:04:00] clever: | mythconverg.settings | check | status | OK |
[23:04:02] kormoc: whatever it is, it's *not* mythweb *crashing*
[23:04:15] clever: yeah its not realy mythweb since the frontends also complain
[23:04:19] clever: i think its actualy the backend
[23:04:45] clever: and acording to 'check table settings' the table is fine
[23:05:10] kormoc: then it's the backend itself getting confused, recompile it or update it

[23:05:39] clever: i'll svn update/configure/makecleanmake
[23:08:41] clever: make started
[23:09:02] kormoc: also make sure you don't have more then one version of myth installed
[23:09:39] clever: the package version was uninstalled ages ago and im just doing svn update;make;make install over the slightly older rev
[23:10:21] kormoc: that can leave orphan files...
[23:10:39] clever: parts of slightly older rev's that arent needed anymore?
[23:10:46] kormoc: yes
[23:11:00] clever: id think id need to make uninstall those before i svn update
[23:11:07] clever: or the new makefile wont think to remove them

[23:11:38] Dagmar: ^^^
[23:11:51] clever: what harm can those files do though?

[23:14:52] kormoc: SiD3WiNDR, so submit a bug
[23:14:52] SiD3WiNDR: what's a bell bottom?
[23:14:56] SiD3WiNDR: kormoc: on it, with patch
[23:15:06] Dagmar: Pants that were popular in the early 70's
[23:15:15] Dagmar: Did you just upgrade from version 0.03?
[23:15:25] SiD3WiNDR: why?
[23:15:26] kormoc: it's been mythconverg from day one I believe
[23:15:38] Dagmar: Wow so who decided to change it on your install?
[23:15:42] Dagmar: or why?
[23:15:43] SiD3WiNDR: I did?
[23:15:46] SiD3WiNDR: why not?
[23:15:50] Honk: gah, 24h d/c
[23:15:52] Honk: <Dagmar> honk; THat's even funnier <-- did you say anything else?
[23:15:58] Dagmar: Honk: nope
[23:16:05] SiD3WiNDR: if you don't want it customizable, don't make it an option
[23:16:07] Dagmar: Well...
[23:16:18] Dagmar: Looking at the current issue, maybe to avoid breaking things?
[23:16:24] Honk: mhh.. what's so funny about that? my wiki search skills? :]
[23:16:38] Dagmar: Honk: No, you expect documentation on the XML bits. Tee hee
[23:16:44] SiD3WiNDR: Dagmar: well, that's not my fault ;)
[23:16:47] hads: SiD3WiNDR: Yeah, that is a bug, Anduin is the one to talk to to commit a patch for it, he will pick it up from trac
[23:16:50] Honk: dammit, i was trying to keep my hopes up :]
[23:16:51] Dagmar: There's exactly zero of that unless it's wedged in the source code as comments I didn't look at
[23:17:15] Honk: that's about the same amount of docs i found so far :]
[23:17:20] Dagmar: Mainly I just trust that the good XML fairies will keep the bad XML fairies at bay
[23:17:38] hads: SiD3WiNDR: I believe he has some changes to commit to that area soon
[23:17:49] Honk: there are some (just a tiny few) comments in some of the themes :]
[23:18:48] Dagmar: See, mainly we figure the guy who wrote Mepo-wide didn't write it
[23:19:01] Dagmar: He has a time machine that lets him checkout future revisions of the SVN
[23:19:17] Dagmar: Stuff that was written *after* everything was carefully documented
[23:19:49] clever: bbl
[23:20:05] Honk: you're assuming that stuff will ever get documented?
[23:20:24] kormoc: before the heatdeath of the universe, sure
[23:21:12] kormoc: Carefully documented even, sure
[23:21:18] kormoc: correct... now that's another story
[23:21:42] Honk: by those monkeys on their typewriters, right?
[23:22:07] SiD3WiNDR: hads: script seems to work now :D
[23:22:24] SiD3WiNDR: thanks
[23:23:01] hads: Hmm, there appears to be two bugs open related to livetv hangs when switching programs, odd that it's only just appeared for me.
[23:23:25] Dagmar: Ack. I forgot to file mine
[23:23:27] hads: SiD3WiNDR: Cool, I find it useful too :)
[23:23:57] SiD3WiNDR: now, when I have my video list and select one, I don't get any imdb info, it's all unknown
[23:24:02] SiD3WiNDR: any tips on how to fix that?
[23:25:40] hads: Probably your imdb script that you are using is broken. I use the imdbpy one from the same place and it works great. I believe the perl one in trunk has been updated too.
[23:26:45] SiD3WiNDR: I fetched the perl one
[23:27:06] SiD3WiNDR: does that data come from the database, or does the frontend fetch it live when you select the movie?
[23:27:22] SiD3WiNDR: in the first case I'd think it would be filled out by imdbpy, in the second by imdb.pl ?
[23:27:25] SiD3WiNDR: [or something]
[23:27:26] Dagmar: pThat would definitely make imdb good and angry
[23:27:36] SiD3WiNDR: the latter you mean?
[23:28:04] SiD3WiNDR: or rather hmm
[23:28:13] SiD3WiNDR: fetching x * 100 movies on every database update ;)

[23:35:33] SiD3WiNDR: okido, seem to have that working; needed to specify -o for find_meta because of broken data committed already in db
[23:35:47] GreyFoxx: ahhh the joys of being at work on a Saturday night restoring a machine from backups
[23:36:16] kormoc: absd, given I already answered your question, repeating it in #mythtv isn't likely going to give you any different answers...
[23:37:18] Honk: gah, this is gonna make my head explode
[23:37:19] Honk: i know it
[23:37:32] absd: kormoc: yeh, I acutally asked it there first, and waited a bit, got no answer, and asked it here since there was some traffic.... Not trying to annoy anyone :)
[23:37:35] meteor-1500: can anyone tell me what the key for changing channels while watching live tv is?
[23:37:41] meteor-1500: up down doesn't seem to do it for me
[23:38:00] kormoc: meteor-1500, check keys.txt
[23:38:06] meteor-1500: ah thanks
[23:40:24] meteor-1500: ok checked those and the keys it says don't work for me, tried the number keys and it just puts said number on the osd
[23:40:42] kormoc: after typing the number did you press enter?
[23:40:44] kormoc: or space?
