[00:00:20] mikeones_: all I get is a playlist.m3u that vlc wants to open
[00:01:16] xris: no, it should just send an m3u
[00:01:29] xris: never got anyone to write a flash-based player for it
[00:01:40] xris: I think I may put that forth as a project for summer of code
[00:02:00] mikeones_: I see
[00:02:01] directhex: for the size of an mp3, does it matter?
[00:02:17] directhex: i suppose if you rip at > your dsl upstream, yeah, it does
[00:02:28] directhex: but honestly, 320k mp3 must die
[00:03:35] Aval0n: is .21 close to release now?
[00:04:37] directhex: yes

[00:16:02] squish103: i remember quickly looking at .21 and didn't see anything major added?
[00:16:09] fryfrog: er
[00:16:12] squish103: i guess that is a point release
[00:16:19] fryfrog: maybe you are thinking of 0.20?
[00:16:25] iamlindoro: .21 has HUGE changes
[00:16:35] fryfrog: 0.21 is very big, imho
[00:16:50] iamlindoro: multirec, mythweb flash streaming, opengl video renderer, tons of new deinterlacers, hundreds of bugfixes, etc.
[00:16:51] fryfrog: multi-rec branch merged in, right?
[00:17:02] fryfrog: multiple recordings dirs?
[00:17:10] iamlindoro: yup, storage groups
[00:17:25] iamlindoro: huge uPnP improvements... the list goes on
[00:17:26] Aval0n: mythweb flash streaming has never worked for me
[00:17:36] Aval0n: do you have to transcode all your videos to flash before you stream or something?
[00:17:37] directhex: the ogl renderer is lovely
[00:17:49] iamlindoro: Aval0n: nope, are you running SVN?
[00:17:52] Aval0n: i always just get a screencap of the recording.. then I hit play and get endless blackness
[00:17:53] iamlindoro: trunk, that is
[00:17:55] Aval0n: yeah SVN
[00:18:13] ** directhex thinks Aval0n needs a better ffmpeg **
[00:18:14] Aval0n: and opengl video render causes front end crashes all the time
[00:18:16] iamlindoro: Aval0n: probably a misconfig or your distro has a bum ffmpeg
[00:18:19] Aval0n: I had to revert back to xblit
[00:18:19] iamlindoro: probably the latter
[00:18:30] Aval0n: hmm
[00:18:32] directhex: sounds like Aval0n's system is bum in general!
[00:18:33] fryfrog: i switched to the 0.21-fixes branch a few days ago, anyon using that now?
[00:18:41] iamlindoro: 'cause the ubuntu ffmpeg has no mp3 support and the mythweb streaming requires it
[00:18:42] Aval0n: I'll concur with directhex
[00:18:47] fryfrog: opengl didn't work for me, had to switch to xblit too

[00:18:54] fryfrog: but took me a *long* time to realize that :p
[00:19:01] Aval0n: welp i'm ubuntu
[00:19:05] Aval0n: so you nailed that one the head
[00:19:13] directhex: medibuntu
[00:19:16] directhex: has a better ffmpeg
[00:19:26] iamlindoro: gcc has the best one
[00:19:28] Aval0n: but I should be using the dev release for .21
[00:20:02] Aval0n: fryfrong was opengl crashing your front end randomly?
[00:20:10] squish103: when i looked at wiki, i guess only one that caught my eye was storage groups
[00:20:23] Aval0n: I was hoping .21 had so new filters that would help my shitty analog cable look better :)
[00:20:31] Aval0n: so/some
[00:20:38] squish103: but with a big ass lvm now it is probably too late for that for me
[00:21:01] fryfrog: Aval0n: no, i think mostly it was just very skippy

[00:36:59] fryfrog: only if you want to
[00:37:07] fryfrog: i don't bother, just delete shows after i watch them
[00:37:12] Cackette: do i need to transcode it to watch it on the tv/
[00:37:15] fryfrog: plus, hd space is cheap... cpu time isn't as cheap
[00:37:17] fryfrog: no
[00:37:21] Cackette: ok
[00:37:26] fryfrog: transcode is a space savings thing
[00:37:45] Cackette: what is like the minimum CPU for setting "CPU Usage" to high
[00:37:50] fryfrog: mpeg2 -> mpeg4 or maybe the uh, built in myth format -> mpeg4

[00:38:30] Cackette: theres CPU Usage: low, medium, high
[00:38:55] fryfrog: depends on which settings you mean, but it just keeps the "thread" from bring very important
[00:39:02] fryfrog: pick low, you'll be fine
[00:39:14] Cackette: not priority, CPU usage
[00:39:17] fryfrog: it doesn't artificially slow it down, just makes it less important
[00:39:31] fryfrog: okay, maybe you could give some details about *where*?

[06:03:15] soulfury: Can anyone confirm whether or not I have to install certain codecs for .ts playback? I installed the propietary codecs, ubuntu 7.10, so I can play x264, xvid, etc. Mplayer plays the .ts, but it spikes one of the procs and playback is too slow.
[06:04:16] iamlindoro_: .ts is just a container, it's not a codec at all
[06:04:30] soulfury: yeah thats why I'm confused
[06:04:36] soulfury: all the ts content i've seen is mpeg
[06:04:48] iamlindoro_: .ts can be anything... mpeg-2, h.264, etc.
[06:05:07] iamlindoro_: far more likely the codecs muxed into that .ts are too much for your system to handle as is
[06:05:08] soulfury: well the box can play mpeg2 and h.264
[06:05:30] iamlindoro_: "can play h.264" doesn't mean anything... crank the bitrate high enough and your machine will choke, guarantee it
[06:05:37] iamlindoro_: what's the stream?
[06:05:48] soulfury: A64 x2 4000, 4GB DDR2, geforce 7050pv
[06:05:54] soulfury: the box can play it.
[06:06:02] iamlindoro_: What...is... the stream
[06:06:08] soulfury: this other host with a weaker A64 can play the same 6GB test ts I'm using
[06:06:13] soulfury: one sec i'll have to look
[06:06:22] iamlindoro_: fmpeg -i yourfile
[06:06:25] iamlindoro_: pastebin output
[06:06:28] iamlindoro_: er ffmpeg
[06:06:59] soulfury: oh hrm
[06:08:35] soulfury: http://pastebin.com/m2f404b72
[06:09:34] iamlindoro_: So there you go, it's h.264, and high bitrate... very likely you're just using the wrong mplayer arguments, but if those don't help, then your box is too slow
[06:09:47] soulfury: oh cool
[06:09:55] soulfury: sounds like that I can work with
[06:09:55] iamlindoro_: ps, I hate when warez people call that shit 1080p... it's not.
[06:10:08] soulfury: right theres alot of stuff mislabelled
[06:10:14] soulfury: alot of ignorance goes on there

[06:10:22] soulfury: so I'll just jack with my mplayer string
[06:10:44] soulfury: this box i'm ircing from is a weaker proc, less ram, slower FSB, and it can play the same file with no probs.
[06:10:48] iamlindoro_: mplayer is nice and when you play it and it goes **** YOUR SYSTEM IS TOO SLOW TO PLAY THIS **** ... it gives you all the info you need to *try* to get it playing if it's possible
[06:11:24] iamlindoro_: beyond that, I won't help you play pirated material.

[11:09:37] hnitsuj: constant tickers on some shows eh? sucky
[11:09:56] hnitsuj: normally only news channels have that over here
[11:10:25] joobie: ya that's what it is
[11:10:28] joobie: like a breakfast show
[11:10:34] joobie: and when i watch it, it's really noticable
[11:10:37] hnitsuj: I heard a rumour that in the US when there's a severe weather warning the TV channels superimpose all kinds of shit over the picture
[11:10:53] hnitsuj: try bob 2x or kernel deinterlacing
[11:11:15] joobie: where is this setting btw hnitsuj
[11:11:16] joobie: im in setup
[11:11:17] directhex|work: greedy
[11:11:19] hnitsuj: or if you're using a nvidia card with tvout, open nvidia-settings & turn the flicker filter up to half
[11:11:24] hnitsuj: only trunk has greedy
[11:11:26] directhex|work: it'll eat your cpu, but greedy looks great
[11:11:32] hnitsuj: and only trunk has yadif
[11:11:57] directhex|work: well, what kind of luddite isn't using trunk? ;)
[11:12:04] hnitsuj: me !
[11:12:04] joobie: na no nvidia card.. just an intel
[11:12:11] hnitsuj: won't be using 0.21 when it's out either
[11:12:22] hnitsuj: wait for 0.22 :)
[11:13:05] directhex|work: erm... why?
[11:13:42] hnitsuj: because!
[11:15:18] hnitsuj: don't really need any of the new features and to be blunt some things have got worse. playback profiles... blech
[11:15:34] joobie: finally
[11:15:36] joobie: i found the settings
[11:15:39] joobie: wow that was weird.. took a whiel
[11:15:48] joobie: ok deinterlace playback is enabled

[11:16:05] joobie: ot
[11:16:09] joobie: it's set to kernel btw
[11:16:56] directhex|work: hnitsuj, so set up a simplistic profile and take advantage of the better deinterlacer & renderer

[11:18:52] joobie: the picture is not sitting right now.. there's like this 1px blue line
[11:18:55] joobie: across the top of the screen
[11:19:08] hnitsuj: reverted to being a 'wah, want everything done' user like so many others. no real merit in upgrading anyway – don't want any of the new features & 0.20.x is stable enough for the most part.
[11:19:56] rooaus: joobie: Is the source PAL or NTSC?
[11:20:21] hnitsuj: might update when 0.21 is a bit more mature ;)
[11:20:27] joobie: rooaus, PAL i think.. im from AU
[11:20:35] joobie: like u! :P
[11:20:40] joobie: im streaming ch10
[11:20:51] joobie: it's got like this 1px blue line across the top when i switched to bob
[11:22:24] rooaus: joobie: What refresh rate are you using? If it is 60Hz with PAL content you see the stutter, even with deinterlacing.
[11:23:59] joobie: in xorg rooaus ?
[11:24:07] joobie: i think i have 60Hz set in xorg
[11:24:11] hnitsuj: joobie: refresh rate can't be set anywhere else
[11:24:18] joobie: ahh
[11:24:22] joobie: yea it's 60Hz
[11:24:49] rooaus: Yeah, there is a tool that reports the info from memory.
[11:24:57] hnitsuj: xrandr
[11:26:03] joobie: i checked it out in display properties
[11:26:07] joobie: it's definitely 60Hz
[11:26:10] joobie: what shoudl i make it?
[11:26:11] rooaus: joobie: "xvidtune" will show what it is currently.
[11:27:10] rooaus: joobie: You want it set to 50Hz for PAL content, or possibly 74Hz, depending on what options are available.
[11:27:19] rooaus: *75Hz :)
[11:27:56] hnitsuj: 75Hz? why?
[11:28:54] joobie: ok gona check this out
[11:29:07] joobie: i have
[11:29:10] joobie: 60 and 70 as an option
[11:29:13] joobie: in the dropdown list
[11:29:19] hnitsuj: computers are bollocks at displaying stuff on plain old TVs
[11:29:28] directhex|work: because it's a cleaner conversion from 50hz, presumably. can't say i've ever used mythtv with an antique screen, and back when i were a lad, it was enough of an event to get x working on a tv, so sod the settings
[11:30:03] joobie: hmm
[11:30:08] joobie: i think i have an error with my xorg.conf
[11:30:09] hnitsuj: well, not everybody wants their SDTV to look shit on a big screen
[11:30:20] joobie: when i run xvidtune, it reports a Samsung SyncMaster as my monitor
[11:30:27] joobie: but my TV is a panasonic plazma
[11:30:45] joobie: i tried to set that in xorg.conf before – but couldnt find it as a known monitor (because it's a tv)
[11:30:46] rooaus: joobie: What is it hooked up to and how? You said Intel graphics right?
[11:30:57] joobie: rooaus, ya.. the graphics card is intel
[11:31:01] joobie: it's hooked up to my plazma tv
[11:31:08] joobie: i used to have it hooked up to a samsung syuncmaster lcd
[11:31:11] hnitsuj: joobie: how?
[11:31:22] directhex|work: the name specified in xorg.conf is irrelevant
[11:31:31] joobie: my mediacenter has dvi out.. i have a dvi -> vga convertor.. and i hook it up via vga to the tv
[11:31:36] directhex|work: it's used as an identifier, it's not used for anything actually screen-related
[11:31:40] joobie: i see
[11:32:09] joobie: well when i ran xvidtune, it says "hsync range 0: 30.0 – 81.00, vsync range 0: 56 – 75"
[11:32:28] joobie: but when i right click the desktop and check sync rate in display properites.. it only gives me 60 and 70 in the dropdown
[11:33:04] directhex|work: you can't use all rates at all modes
[11:33:13] directhex|work: xrandr should show all available combinations
[11:33:31] directhex|work: of course, refresh rates are largely meaningless on non-crt
[11:33:39] joobie: hmm
[11:33:44] DGnome: xrandr can lie
[11:33:47] joobie: xrandr looks like it's based on my xorg.conf
[11:33:49] DGnome: atleast in my case
[11:33:55] directhex|work: yes, xrandr can lie
[11:34:08] rooaus: joobie: I have a Sony LCD TV and NVidia graphics. I needed to tweak the xorg.conf to allow a 50Hz vertical refresh as the driver disabled <60Hz modes.
[11:34:23] DGnome: xrandr tells me my tv can do 51Hz, which infact really is 60Hz
[11:34:24] joobie: ahh
[11:34:28] directhex|work: but it still illustrates the "different resolutions allow different refreshes" concept
[11:34:59] directhex|work: generally, pc graphics cards won't do 50hz. especially via vga
[11:35:13] directhex|work: largely because pc monitors won't display it
[11:35:17] rooaus: joobie: xvidtune should popup a gui, in the lower right corner it should report the vertical refresh rate of the current video mode.
[11:35:44] joobie: rooaus, it says pixel clock (MHz): 65
[11:36:07] joobie: Morizontal Sync (kHz): 48.36, Vertical Sync (Hz): 60.00
[11:36:11] joobie: -M+H

[11:36:19] joobie: .. that is in xvidtune
[11:39:18] rooaus: joobie: I definitely had to use a 50Hz video mode to fix the problem you are seeing, I ended up using the HDMI input on the tv with a 720p modeline instead of vga at 1:1 pixel mapping because the vga could only sync @60Hz.
[11:40:29] directhex|work: <directhex|work> generally, pc graphics cards won't do 50hz. especially via vga
[11:40:31] joobie: ahh
[11:40:54] joobie: i tried hdmi, but the problem is if i use the hdmi input, i have to combine audio on the same hdmi channel
[11:41:06] joobie: unfortunately my tv doesn't let me use video from the hdmi and audio from another input
[11:41:27] joobie: and on my mediacenter i have a seperate audio output with dvi output..
[11:42:24] rooaus: directhex|work: My card can do it, no problem there, just the shite TMDS transceivers used in the TVs.

[11:49:32] Dibblah: hnitsuj: Not that far.

[11:56:16] joobie: it's identical to the manual i got with it:P
[11:56:48] rooaus: joobie: yeah, downloading it now.
[11:57:10] Dibblah: Hmm. Maybe not – I can't find Daniel's post saying it's busted :)
[11:57:19] joobie: thanks for the help hey
[11:57:22] DGnome: hnitsuj: if he lives in a PAL country, his HD is 50Hz also
[11:57:30] joobie: ive been sorta putting up with it a for a while.. but would love to sort it out
[11:57:45] rooaus: Dibblah: I think he said it the other day in #mythtv
[11:57:45] hnitsuj: amazing what you'll put up with to ahve a pc-based pvr
[11:57:46] joobie: it sucks when you watch the antenna direct to the TV.. and then through myth and see a noticable difference
[11:59:11] hnitsuj: heh well sucks when a bunch of software can't scale & deinterlace as well as a DSP in the telly :)
[11:59:22] DGnome: joobie: you wouldnt happen to have an extra nvidia 6200++ card you could install in the mythboxen? :)
[11:59:23] Dibblah: Sure it can.
[11:59:34] hnitsuj: Dibblah: depends what you're comparing it to
[11:59:47] rooaus: joobie: It is worth sorting out, imho it makes a big difference, but some people don't notice it. The tickers is where it is most apparent, but even pans in scenes etc have the problem.
[11:59:49] joobie: eheh DGnome
[11:59:56] Dibblah: Nope. What can be done in hardware can pretty much be done in software.
[11:59:59] DGnome: hnitsuj: what are you blabbering about?
[11:59:59] joobie: na.. im using a macmini so i have no expansion slots
[12:00:05] hnitsuj: Dibblah: but not in mythtv
[12:00:17] Dibblah: rooaus: Have you tried yadif / ...
[12:00:27] directhex|work: Dibblah, he's on 0.20
[12:00:32] DGnome: hnitsuj: mythtv gives me better image quality than any STB i've ever seen
[12:00:38] hnitsuj: bullshit
[12:00:53] joobie: rooaus, ya.. i see that occasionally with a pan.. sometimes the picture looks crisp as.. but the occasion scene you just cringe when you see the poor quality:P
[12:01:23] Dibblah: hnitsuj: What's your input?
[12:01:45] Dibblah: SVid / Tuner / ...?
[12:01:49] rooaus: Dibblah: Yeah, it is nice... taxes the cpu though :)

[12:06:24] joobie: i mean, if its generated via myth
[12:06:32] joobie: or generated via the broadcast
[12:06:34] joobie: they're both mpeg
[12:06:47] Dibblah: hnitsuj: I don't understand.
[12:06:57] joobie: if the processor is sufficnet to encode it / play it
[12:07:01] joobie: it should be the same shoudnt it
[12:07:05] Dibblah: What's the two chains you are comparing?
[12:07:21] Dibblah: VM Cable -> Cable Box -> SVid -> TV
[12:07:36] Dibblah: And DVB-t -> Myth Box -> SVid -> TV?
[12:07:40] rooaus: joobie: It looks like the native res of your panel is 1024x768. The manual says that you can get a 1024x768@75Hz mode over VGA. I would try that.
[12:07:45] hnitsuj: Dibblah: pretty much
[12:08:12] Dibblah: Which video card / deinterlacing filter / ...?
[12:08:21] hnitsuj: intel, bob 2x
[12:08:25] joobie: rooaus, but when i check out display properites in xorg it only gives me 60 and 70
[12:08:36] joobie: do i need to statically specify 75hz in the xorg.conf or something?
[12:08:42] Dibblah: Bob won't work particularly well on an interlaced output device.
[12:08:43] hnitsuj: looks like bollocks, but better than any nvidia card I've ever had
[12:08:54] hnitsuj: Dibblah: you don't get proper interlaced TV out
[12:08:56] hnitsuj: it
[12:09:09] Dibblah: Yes – I know how it works, I have one.
[12:09:18] Dibblah: I mean bob relies on pretty tight timing.
[12:09:25] hnitsuj: it's PAL but what's going into the tv encoder isn't interlaced – and even if it was, there's no way for the software to know which field it's on
[12:10:11] Dibblah: Yup. Precisely the problem with a non-native output device.
[12:10:25] rooaus: joobie: Yeah, you may need to fiddle with xorg.conf
[12:10:26] Dibblah: And no, there's no real way round it.
[12:10:29] hnitsuj: which is why PCs are bollocks for playing back TV
[12:10:40] Dibblah: No – PCs are fine.
[12:10:42] joobie: btw rooaus
[12:10:45] joobie: i have this prob
[12:10:51] Dibblah: Video cards which aren't designed for the job suck.
[12:10:52] joobie: when i boot.. it goes to a huge res
[12:10:59] joobie: then i have to set it each time.. set it down to 1024 x 768
[12:11:05] joobie: any idea how to make it always go to that res
[12:11:07] hnitsuj: Dibblah: why is... pretty much all of them
[12:11:11] Dibblah: And there ARE no commercial video cards designed for the job :(
[12:11:54] hnitsuj: matrox did some once, but getting them to work in linux makes writing a software pvr app from scratch look easy

[12:15:36] Dibblah: Would have been nice if it surfaced.
[12:15:57] hnitsuj: fucking boiler failed last night. wonder what's going to go wrong today :-\ Been a shite week, all told
[12:16:19] Dibblah: It never happens in summer, does it?
[12:16:59] hnitsuj: turned out to be the battery contacts in the thermostat/timer thing – clock was working but not enough welly to power the relay
[12:17:30] joobie: hmm
[12:17:32] ** Dibblah doesn't have a thermostat or timer any more. **
[12:17:37] joobie: ok well i fixed the video in xorg
[12:17:39] hnitsuj: dog had the pukes/shits the night before, and wed morning was burgled & had my car taken
[12:17:49] joobie: is there a good way to test if it's fixed? i dont have any vids with that scrolling text up now
[12:18:15] Dibblah: hnitsuj: Ouch. Night time slip-in, grab the keys?
[12:18:20] rooaus: Dibblah: We had a gas shortage a few years back, 10 days without gas, 10 days without hot water. :(
[12:19:13] hnitsuj: night time? nah. 5am. I got up to go to the loo while there were still in the house. they made it to the livingroom & set off the alarm just as I got back into bed. c***s
[12:19:51] hnitsuj: according to the cctv the time between em getting in the car & me peeping out the front door was about 30 secs
[12:19:55] joobie: hmm btw guys.. when i startup, my Xorg sits at the login screen for X..
[12:20:04] joobie: is it possible to make it go right through to myth?
[12:20:12] joobie: so i can just turn it on and it logs in and everythign.. and loads myth
[12:20:30] Dibblah: joobie: Have a look at the FAQ in the documentation.
[12:20:34] Dibblah: Or follow a guide.
[12:21:34] rooaus: joobie: Check what the actual refresh rate is, then record sunrise or whatever tom morning so you can test later.
[12:21:45] joobie: cool roo
[12:21:46] hnitsuj: anyway FWIW myth is staying put cos as sucky (or not) as it might (or might not) be, it's still zillionz of miles better than any standalone bullshit hardware box in terms of features. I never moaned that the output quality doesn't come _close_ to standalones – just that it could be better ;)
[12:21:48] joobie: ill try that
[12:22:07] joobie: but if i record it.. will the record be good regardless of the refresh?
[12:22:15] joobie: or will the broken refresh rate make the recording broken too..?
[12:22:34] hnitsuj: that Humax box we had the other week – jesus – even neglecting its lack of useful features it was still shite
[12:22:47] hnitsuj: 'the best freeview pvr on the market'. hate to try the worst
[12:22:47] rooaus: joobie: Yeah, it will record the "stream" from over the air, the processing etc happens on playback.
[12:23:17] rooaus: hnitsuj: What did the missus say? Did she miss myth as well?
[12:23:20] joobie: ahh cool
[12:23:28] joobie: thanks for all the help hey
[12:23:36] joobie: i mean this streaming on 10HD looks mad
[12:23:51] hnitsuj: rooaus: she missed timestretch, arbitrary skipping, adequate EPG & stuff. basics
[12:23:55] directhex|work: hnitsuj, you can pick up a crappy one for 10 quid, minus hard disk
[12:24:05] hnitsuj: directhex|work: they're not even worth 10 quids
[12:24:17] directhex|work: hnitsuj, i never said they were ;)
[12:24:28] hnitsuj: maybe as bookends or paperweights
[12:24:40] Dibblah: The Tivo is actually quite good.
[12:24:46] Dibblah: In terms of UI.
[12:24:56] Dibblah: Picture quality isn't so hot, of course.
[12:25:01] hnitsuj: pity about the analogue :)
[12:25:17] Dibblah: Doing quite well for a 9 year old bit of kit, though.
[12:25:18] rooaus: hnitsuj: Is that all :) I think the things I would miss are different to what my missus would miss.
[12:25:26] hnitsuj: mate of mine lent me a recording he put onto dvd for me. not even as good as the pvr150

[12:25:55] joobie: hey so
[12:25:58] joobie: what does this Hz actually do?
[12:26:05] joobie: i googled around.. couldnt find a decent explaination
[12:26:23] hnitsuj: rooaus: I'd miss mythweb, programme finder. there aren't many features in mythtv I actually use that much
[12:26:48] hnitsuj: joobie: means how many times per second (hz) the picture is drawn onscreen
[12:27:23] joobie: ahh
[12:27:33] hnitsuj: rooaus: wouldn't miss mythvideo or mythmusic. not with XBMC, but I hate its UI
[12:27:34] joobie: so why does dropping to 50hz work better than increasing?
[12:27:42] joobie: more times per second wold be crisper / smoother wouldnt it?
[12:27:47] hnitsuj: joobie: because the TV is 50Hz
[12:28:00] hnitsuj: joobie: that which is broadcast is 50Hz
[12:28:32] hnitsuj: if the rate was out of step (i.e. not an integer multiple of 50Hz) , you'd get tearing & all sorts of stuff
[12:30:22] joobie: hh
[12:30:23] joobie: ahh
[12:30:24] joobie: i see
[12:30:31] joobie: so how do i see what hz my broadcast is in?
[12:30:36] Dibblah: You may also find that your deinterlacer (if you're using bob) will turn off if you get to 'exactly' 50hz.
[12:30:46] joobie: rooaus, any idea what hz the au dvb-t broadcast is?
[12:30:46] Dibblah: joobie: It's 50Hz. You're in PAL land.
[12:31:11] joobie: so if i go 75Hz, how will that help?
[12:31:17] rooaus: hnitsuj: I would miss mythmusic, mythweb, multiple tuners, > 1TB storage
[12:31:24] Dibblah: (Because there's some futzing through the driver which means that 50 is not actually 50Hz.
[12:31:27] joobie: dont i need 50hz?
[12:31:36] Dibblah: No. 50 is what you're aiming for.
[12:32:04] joobie: but im currently doing 60hz
[12:32:12] joobie: why would i increase that to 75?
[12:32:20] joobie: is it because it's a half of 50 or sumthen? <lost>
[12:32:50] hnitsuj: couldn't ever miss mythmusic tbh. maybe mythvideo but no other plugin
[12:32:51] rooaus: joobie: Your TV won't sync at 50Hz (over vga) according to the manual, so 75 Hz is the next best according to the table of supported modes.

[12:35:50] Dibblah: joobie: Which Myth version?
[12:36:27] rooaus: Dibblah: He is keen to get it into svn, he has just been real busy. Splitting it up into smaller patches is a fair bit of work though.
[12:36:36] joobie: 0.20.2
[12:36:46] Dibblah: Yeah, I read -dev too ;)
[12:37:09] Dibblah: joobie: Not completely sure, but I believe that may be fixed in trunk.

[12:39:40] joobie: Dibblah, ahh. it's a known bug?
[12:40:35] Dibblah: I seem to recall, yes.
[12:40:42] Dibblah: Could be wrong, though :)
[12:40:51] Dibblah: Backup, install 0.21 and try it ;)
[12:41:09] joobie: ahh
[12:41:12] joobie: i insatlled via a repo
[12:42:20] rooaus: joobie: I think Dibblah is right. The blue is probably the chromakey colour, which can be changed to make it less noticeable.
[12:42:35] Dibblah: It is.
[12:42:38] joobie: way over my head
[12:42:43] joobie: :)
[12:42:46] joobie: is there a fix for this version?
[12:42:50] Dibblah: But I really don't want to be suggesting that particular band-aid.
[12:42:59] joobie: i notcied there was x and y positioning in one of the options.. i was thinking of positoning hte screen up 1px
[12:43:08] joobie: ahh
[12:43:10] hnitsuj: you can't
[12:43:12] Dibblah: Don't believe that works.
[12:43:15] Dagmar: Eventually someone will actually fix that bug
[12:43:17] joobie: doh
[12:43:23] Dibblah: (That scales the overlay window)
[12:43:50] Dagmar: Search the wiki for 'xvattr' which is the thing you use to set the overlay color to black so the blue line goes away
[12:43:51] Dibblah: Dagmar: If it bothers you, fix it ;)
[12:44:02] Dagmar: Dibblah: I've no idea where the hell that stuff gets set
[12:44:18] Dibblah: The code is an open book.
[12:44:20] Dagmar: It's pretty apparently something being treated as a counting number instead of an offset
[12:44:24] Dibblah: With no index or reference ;)
[12:44:30] Dagmar: Dibblah: ...provided you can read C++ well
[12:44:56] joobie: thanks Dagmar
[12:45:49] Dibblah: I'm _fairly_ sure it only happens with the rate-doubling deinterlacers.
[12:45:58] Dibblah: And not in NTSC land.
[12:46:22] Dagmar: Well, my NTSC TV using the s-video output and no special settings beyond that begs to differe.
[12:46:49] Dagmar: ...and I"m still wondering who kept changing the number being handed to xvattr
[12:46:52] Dibblah: Hence the uncertainty above. Shockingly enough, I don't watch too much NTSC stuff.
[12:47:01] Dagmar: Seems like just about anything (including zero) makes the damn thing set the overlay color to black.
[12:47:27] Dibblah: Some chips only support specific overlay colors?
[12:47:50] Dagmar: Hell if I know, but some yahoo kept changing the line to "xvattr -a XV_COLORKEY -v 66048" withotu explaining why

[12:52:11] DGnome: joobie: managed to get 50hz ouput over vga?
[12:52:31] joobie: na.. but i found an article on the wiki for setting up myth on a macmini
[12:52:38] joobie: it mentions using svideo adapter – which i have
[12:52:47] joobie: just wondering if svideo can support 50Hz?
[12:52:56] DGnome: yes it can
[12:53:00] joobie: hmm
[12:53:11] joobie: so do you think it'd be worthwhile going from vga to svideo?
[12:53:15] DGnome: but you will be forced to run at PAL 720x576
[12:53:17] Dibblah: It would be _really_ nice if someone could figure out how to wire up the pp filter. But that doesn't seem to be something anyone able is interested in.
[12:53:18] joobie: just cos of the Hz alone?
[12:53:21] joobie: ahh doh
[12:53:27] joobie: that res doesn't sound good:P
[12:53:37] Dibblah: deblocking / deringing / lancos scaling / ...
[12:53:43] joobie: rooaus, get some sleep bro :P thanks for all your help
[12:54:00] rooaus: joobie: np
[12:54:00] DGnome: joobie: get an nvidia 6200 or better card, it will solve all the problems
[12:54:23] joobie: DGnome, im using a macmini.. it doesnt support it
[12:54:51] DGnome: joobie: oh, you are on a mac mini. why not run mythfrontend natively?
[12:55:16] DGnome: or are running native?
[12:55:36] Dagmar: Now that I'm thinking of it, I'm changing 66048 back to 0 again
[12:55:52] joobie: DGnome, what do you mean by natively running it?
[12:56:04] DGnome: joobie: did you install linux on your macmini?
[12:56:13] joobie: DGnome, ya
[12:56:19] joobie: centos
[12:56:50] DGnome: joobie: if you can get mythfrontend to compile on macosx, you are better off running it in OSX
[12:57:07] joobie: oh
[12:57:09] joobie: why is that?
[12:57:14] joobie: better driver support?
[12:57:14] DGnome: intel gfx and linux == pain
[12:57:31] Dibblah: DGnome: Eh?
[12:57:35] joobie: interesting
[12:57:39] Dibblah: Works fine for me.
[12:57:51] joobie: DGnome, i'd prefer to keep it linux tho... i use this box for my gateway / webserver too
[12:57:55] joobie: so it's kinda an all-in-one
[12:57:55] Dibblah: Nice opensource drivers, no wierd kernel module dependencies,...
[12:58:02] DGnome: Dibblah: well, just having to use a tool to get other than 1024x768 resoltuins to work seems bad imho
[12:58:19] Dibblah: DGnome: Not with the latest ("modesetting") drivers.
[12:58:34] Dibblah: Native xrandr 1.2 support.
[12:58:44] DGnome: okay then
[12:59:00] DGnome: Dibblah: tell this man how to get 50Hz output over VGA then
[12:59:03] Dibblah: XV support does HD resolutions, ...

[13:00:27] Dibblah: Use the right modeline...?
[13:00:38] Dibblah: And recent X / drivers.
[13:00:46] joobie: what modeline Dibblah ?
[13:00:50] Dibblah: I'd actually recommend not using that res.
[13:01:14] joobie: that is the max my vga port supports
[13:01:25] ghostcube: hmmm ok guys maybe i read not enough but i havent found an solution for my problem on ubuntu gutsy and mythtv may someone can help me to get the Hauppauge WinTV to be recognized by mythtv xawtv kdetv and so on are recognizing and working with this card its bt878 and i looked in lsmod the needed modules loaded :|
[13:01:29] Dibblah: For me, it's ModeLine "1280x720–50Hz" 60.47 1280 1328 1456 1632 720 721 724 741
[13:01:38] Dibblah: But that's 1280...

[13:01:53] Dibblah: There's a list of them somewhere or other. Google knows.
[13:02:08] Dibblah: ModeLine "800x600PAL" 33.2 800 840 968 1056 600 601 605 628
[13:02:19] joobie: Dibblah, would you use Modes "1280x720_50" to use that modeline?
[13:02:24] Dibblah: was what I was using on my old (800x600 native) projector.
[13:02:28] Dibblah: Yes.
[13:02:49] joobie: any idea what the 1024 one would be
[13:02:55] joobie: a resource that has it or sumthen
[13:02:58] joobie: this is kinda over my head
[13:02:59] Dibblah: Remember to set horizsync and vertrefresh appropriately.
[13:03:18] joobie: how to do that?:P
[13:03:48] DGnome: Modeline "1024x768@50" 51.85 1024 1056 1248 1280 768 784 791 807 <-- that may work
[13:03:52] ghostcube: on gutsy i noticed the mythbackend startet by init.d isnt working with the frontend u must start backend through sudo but if u done this frontend can connect to backend but not possible to get the card working
[13:03:53] Dibblah: What's your display's native resolution?
[13:04:09] ghostcube: joobie: what card is this ati or nvidia ?
[13:04:14] DGnome: but will the intel driver and xorg combo allow 50Hz without any extra options?
[13:04:22] Dibblah: AFAIK, yes.
[13:04:42] Dibblah: Again, set horizsync and vertrefresh right, though.

[13:05:49] joobie: but it says there 1024x768 for vga port
[13:06:06] DGnome: Modeline "1024x768@50" 51.85 1024 1056 1248 1280 768 784 791 807 <-- put on your glasses
[13:06:16] ghostcube: joobie: u want to put beamer to main vga ?
[13:06:45] ghostcube: DGnome: 1024x786_50 if possible for xorg 7.3 afaik
[13:07:34] ghostcube: btw anyone an solution or idea fo r my problem ??
[13:07:42] DGnome: then joobie could try adding "1024x786_50" to his modes
[13:09:18] Dibblah: ghostcube: Sounds like you need to set permissions on your capture device, if I'm understanding correctly.
[13:09:32] joobie: ok
[13:09:32] Dibblah: As I always ask – Which install guide are you following?
[13:09:34] ghostcube: :O
[13:09:34] joobie: sec ill try
[13:10:51] ghostcube: Dibblah: i tried the howtos on mythtv and some in web but they didnt help cause noone of the ones i read about had get backend to work so i tried on my own to get it working with help from mythtv troubleshoot page
[13:11:25] ghostcube: i havnt read about the one thats sets the capture device to access by mythtv group if this is what u mean
[13:11:26] joobie: hmm
[13:11:33] joobie: X loaded. but how can i confirm it's 50Hz
[13:11:51] DGnome: joobie: run xrandr in a termianl
[13:12:01] joobie: kk
[13:12:19] DGnome: my typing just kepps getting worse..
[13:12:26] DGnome: gah
[13:12:29] joobie: ok no goox
[13:12:34] joobie: it was 60hz.. i forgot the _50
[13:12:39] joobie: put in the _50 and x doesnt load now
[13:12:46] DGnome: allrighty then
[13:13:19] ghostcube: Dibblah: and the thing i cant get is that all proggies are working with my card only mythtv isnt noticing it it cant talk to the card it reads the card info in video card adding section but cant communicate with it
[13:13:30] joobie: rooaus was saying 50Hz is not possible over vga
[13:14:03] DGnome: Then you are a tiny tad screwed
[13:14:13] DGnome: get an a/v-receiver? :)
[13:14:25] joobie: but Dibblah thinks it is?:P
[13:14:26] DGnome: it's the answer to your problems
[13:15:26] joobie: what about "HorizSync 30.0 – 81.0" and "VertRefresh 56.0 – 75.0"
[13:15:29] joobie: are they setup ok?
[13:15:39] Dibblah: ghostcube: Again, I would suggest following a guide (Jarod's is good).
[13:15:42] Dibblah: joobie: No.
[13:15:52] Dibblah: Change vertrefresh to 49–51
[13:15:56] ghostcube: Dibblah: hmm ok i will have a look at it
[13:16:20] ghostcube: Dibblah: but the backen prob on gutsy is known since 0.20 as i read on many forum pages has there changed anything ?
[13:16:38] joobie: Dibblah, leave HorizSync as is?
[13:17:08] Dibblah: I have no idea. Try it :)
[13:17:35] Dibblah: ghostcube: Everyone having problems with permissions is _not_ following a guide.
[13:17:52] ghostcube: Dibblah: hmm ok
[13:17:59] joobie: Dibblah, didnt work still
[13:18:05] joobie: i set vert to 49.0–51.0
[13:18:06] Dibblah: Or, skipping bits of the aforementioned guide ;)
[13:18:09] joobie: no good
[13:18:16] Dibblah: joobie: Pastebin the X log.
[13:18:36] joobie: Dibblah, okie – one sec

[13:38:24] Dibblah: Yeah, maybe. But then you'll get tearing.

[16:00:49] nuxil: its gotten worse
[16:01:41] nuxil: something is seriously wrong with my database settings
[16:04:37] nuxil: how do i reset the database ?
[16:05:04] |Torg|: a databse is not an object it is a program, you cant "reset" it

[16:06:40] nuxil: yea
[16:06:41] nuxil: i also been reading a wiki
[16:06:43] |Torg|: and, what happend?
[16:06:49] nuxil: X crashed
[16:07:00] |Torg|: X has noting to do with mysql
[16:07:18] nuxil: mysql errors so much that X crashes
[16:07:27] |Torg|: mysql can core dump and still not effect X
[16:07:29] Dagmar: Time to burn the machine.
[16:07:44] nuxil: well mythfrontend crashes X
[16:08:03] |Torg|: programs in unix can not interact, its at the core of the OS, to get programs to inteact is deliberate
[16:08:29] |Torg|: mythfrontend cant crash X either

[16:08:52] nuxil: it does here..
[16:09:08] |Torg|: about the closest you can say is that mythfrontend invoked somehting, say xvmc, and that crashed X. If it did there is something SERIOUSLY wrong with your irqs, hardware, or X config
[16:10:05] |Torg|: your telling me the sun pulls the moon across teh sky, im telling you that isnt how it works. You need to be a bit more speficif what you mean by chash, what it is you did, EXACTLY, what commands you used, and what happend
[16:10:18] nuxil: if i run mythfr from k menu X crases--if i run it from a concole i see it errors on database access problems
[16:10:46] |Torg|: when X crashes, how do you restore it?
[16:11:19] nuxil: i start x up again with startx
[16:11:25] Dagmar: Those "database access problems" are there in both cases.
[16:11:47] nuxil: yes
[16:11:52] nuxil: i think so
[16:11:58] |Torg|: he wasnt asking you
[16:12:20] nuxil: oh
[16:12:45] |Torg|: what error does mythfrontend give you?
[16:13:03] nuxil: Database error was:

[16:13:16] |Torg|: where did you tell it to use nuxil as a user?
[16:14:10] nuxil: in some gui app that appared when i ran. dpkg-reconfigure -plow mythtv-database
[16:14:22] Dagmar: Because (YAY!) he didn't read a bit of the installation instructions.
[16:14:22] nuxil: and *-common

[16:59:44] tonyr1988: My tuner has a coax and composite input....I've got it hooked to my cable w/ Myth just fine. My crappy TV only has enough for either my Mythbox or my Wii, so I have to constantly change cables. Can I hook the Wii into my tuner and just set it as an input connection, or is it more complicated than that?
[17:00:19] iamlindoro__: The delay that would introduce would make games impossible
[17:00:23] iamlindoro__: and really, really annoying
[17:00:54] tonyr1988: iamlindoro: Gotcha – I figured there would be something I didn't think of.
[17:00:57] jackson: iamlindoro_, well, he doesn't have to use myth for wii play, he could use tvtime where there won't be a delay.
[17:01:15] |Torg|: you could jsut buy a video switch
[17:01:34] tonyr1988: jackson: Would tvtime be entirely independent of myth, or would I need to set myth's inputs still?
[17:01:44] iamlindoro__: jackson, personally, I find even the slight delay present even when using tvtime make "twitch" style games impossible

[17:02:36] jackson: I didn't have any ill effects when using xbox->capturecard->tvtime when playing racing games or halo.
[17:02:42] tonyr1988: Also, it's the PVR150 (hardware encoding) – I've heard that tvtime doesn't have MPEG2 decoding...would that be a problem?

[17:03:25] iamlindoro__: tonyr1988, tvtime doesn't work with ivtv cards (pvr-150 included)
[17:03:36] jackson: it's at least something that he could easily try. but I do like |Torg|'s suggestion of a little hardware video switch :)
[17:03:49] tonyr1988: iamlindoro: Gotcha.
[17:04:03] tonyr1988: Yeah, I may just get a switch....I just like the idea of not having to leave my house. ;)
[17:04:19] iamlindoro__: that said, it's perfectly possible to bypass the hardware encoder in the pvr-150... that's what /dev/video32 is-- raw video prior to entering the encoder.
[17:04:53] tonyr1988: Really? Sweet – do I need something special to "unlock" the /dev/video32 (like in udev), or just use it instead of /dev/video0?
[17:04:53] iamlindoro__: you'd just have to display it via mplayer using that dev node-- sort of a pain in the ass command line, but doable
[17:05:20] iamlindoro__: nothing necessary to unlock, should just be present in a ls /dev/video*
[17:05:27] tonyr1988: There's also a video24...any idea what that's about?
[17:05:31] iamlindoro__: audio
[17:05:43] tonyr1988: video32 = raw video, video24 = raw audio?
[17:05:49] iamlindoro__: yup
[17:06:00] tonyr1988: Gotcha – thanks for the help. I think I'm gonna mess around with this just for fun.

[17:20:43] iamlindoro__: Dagmar, I showed him how to bypass the encoder-- he's more or less using it in framegrabber mode
[17:20:45] Dagmar: Encoding the video to mpg introduces about 1.5 seconds of LAG in the video.
[17:20:49] Dagmar: Ah okay
[17:21:10] tonyr1988: Yeah, I've got it feeding directly into MPLayer
[17:21:16] Dagmar: In that case just use the composite output left and right outputs with a similar cable to the line input on the MythTV
[17:21:20] |Torg|: elprespufferfish: then libmyth is not what its crashing on, when you did a configure did it tell you it was not going to be built?

[17:22:20] tonyr1988: Dagmar: Yellow = Video, right?
[17:22:24] Dagmar: Yes.
[17:22:29] Dagmar: Red==Right
[17:22:35] Dagmar: White==Anyone's Guess
[17:22:45] |Torg|: White ==Left
[17:22:48] Dagmar: ...there's not much left it could be tho
[17:22:49] tonyr1988: Dagmar: That's the only one I see on my PVR150. It's hard to see the back completely, though...let me look again.
[17:22:54] Dagmar: Thanks for fucking up the joke, Torq
[17:23:01] |Torg|: :P
[17:23:09] iamlindoro__: tonyr1988, If you have the cheapest model of pvr-150, the audio ins are a minijack (stereo audio jack)
[17:23:12] tonyr1988: lol

[17:23:25] elprespufferfish: |Torg|, http://pastebin.com/m4fbbd899 does that help?
[17:23:31] tonyr1988: Yeah – that's what I mean, I don't have any RCA-in (or whatever it's technically called....the audio part of a composite cable)
[17:23:39] |Torg|: Dagmar: im sorry I dindt know it was a joke
[17:23:51] Dagmar: tonyr1988: So how were you planning on getting sound out of the Wii at all?
[17:23:56] iamlindoro__: tonyr1988, because on your pvr-150 it's a MINIJACK
[17:23:59] Dagmar: It's not like it has an internal speaker
[17:24:00] iamlindoro__: like headphones
[17:24:14] iamlindoro__: probably the bottommost or second to bottommost connector on the card
[17:24:27] |Torg|: elprespufferfish: do you have /usr/local/lib/libmyth-0.20.so?
[17:24:35] tonyr1988: Exactly...I didn't think about that ahead of time....I assumed it had an audio jack (I didn't know it was mini)
[17:25:04] iamlindoro__: So you *have* it, just don't have a cable compatible with it-- Radio Shack ftw!
[17:25:09] elprespufferfish: |Torg|, no, i have libmyth-0.21.so . which is what i would imagine i would want to use the prereleases
[17:25:11] Dagmar: Dear god no
[17:25:23] tonyr1988: Wait a minute, I may have something.....

[17:25:29] hashbang (hashbang!n=nosuch@cse-ajb.cse.bris.ac.uk) has quit ("Client exiting")
[17:25:31] |Torg|: elprespufferfish: we CALL it 0.21 its rally still 0.20
[17:25:47] |Torg|: even 0.20.2 is stil 0.20
[17:26:12] iamlindoro__: HEP85, On a non-production computer, yes. I strongly urge you not to rely on it for myth, though...
[17:26:15] elprespufferfish: |Torg|, why did mythmusic and mythgallery install fine then?
[17:26:16] |Torg|: and specificly if you install mythtv after compiling it, it will install that lib for you
[17:26:33] tonyr1988: Yes – it works!
[17:26:56] tonyr1988: I didn't tell you guys something earlier, because it would've made things more confusing....
[17:27:00] |Torg|: elprespufferfish: I dont really know, I can gues sit is becae they do not require the lib. I have never tried to compile without first installing mythtv tho, so I am not certain
[17:27:08] HEP85: iamlindoro: that's why I'm asking. Just wanted to hear some experiences from users.
[17:27:09] iamlindoro__: That you were born a woman?
[17:27:20] iamlindoro__: HEP85, It's not stable. At all. Alpha is no joke.
[17:27:24] tonyr1988: iamlindoro: haha – nice one.
[17:27:26] elprespufferfish: |Torg|, i do have mythtv installed
[17:27:35] tonyr1988: My Mythbox is hooked to my TV via S-Video. On my TV, S-Video and Composite are on the same input, so I couldn't have both playing at the same time.
[17:27:42] elprespufferfish: |Torg|, it installed libmyth-0.21.so
[17:27:47] |Torg|: elprespufferfish: I did not ask if you HAD it insstalled, I asked did you compile mythtv and install it
[17:27:48] tonyr1988: But....my TV lets me do S-Video Input and the Composite Audio Input at the same time.
[17:28:06] tonyr1988: But yes, I was born a woman as well – you have a problem with it!?!?
[17:28:09] iamlindoro__: tonyr1988, as any tv with s-video would-- since s-video carries no audio
[17:28:15] |Torg|: elprespufferfish: to compile svn code you MUST get matching mythtv and mythplkugins, you MUST compile mythtv and install it FIRST
[17:28:38] elprespufferfish: |Torg|, yes, i compiled and installed it
[17:28:46] HEP85: iamlindoro: Well, although I know what alpha means, there is sometimes software which is less alpha like other, if you know what I mean
[17:28:59] iamlindoro__: HEP85, This is real honest-to-goodness alpha
[17:29:04] |Torg|: do you have /usr/local/lib/libmythtv-2,20.so?
[17:29:09] tonyr1988: iamlindoro: Yeah, I just didn't think about ripping the cable apart and doing that.
[17:29:10] |Torg|: err
[17:29:10] HEP85: iamlindoro: But if you got it installed and say it is not stable. I will surely not try it
[17:29:14] iamlindoro__: The kind of alpha that knocks up your sister and drinks all your booze
[17:29:16] |Torg|: do you have /usr/local/lib/libmythtv-0.20.so?
[17:29:40] elprespufferfish: |Torg|, no
[17:30:00] |Torg|: elprespufferfish: then you did not install the compilled mythtv
[17:30:18] iamlindoro__: HEP85, For desktop playaround use, it's fine-- but the constanr barrage of updates, hundreds of megs every few days, will surely bork a mythbox
[17:30:48] iamlindoro__: not to mention constant reinstalling of nVidia drivers, the fact that firefox beta 3 is the default and barely works, etc.
[17:31:02] |Torg|: what is HEP85?
[17:31:22] iamlindoro__: It's the version of Hepatitis I caught from that pond in Venezuela
[17:32:00] HEP85: it is not really that bad
[17:32:10] HEP85: in fact it is just...
[17:32:18] HEP85: me
[17:32:55] |Torg|: elprespufferfish: I understnad you belive you installed the compiled mythtv. But the proof, the installed files, are not there. Perhaps you installed it elesewhere, or you think you installed it but did not. I have made that mistake before. Simply reinstall your compiled mythtv again
[17:34:18] Dagmar: or perhaps KnoppMyth
[17:35:34] elprespufferfish: |Torg|, using a newer revision of mythvideo seems to have worked
[17:35:52] iamlindoro__: ooooooh, mismatched revisions bad
[17:36:09] |Torg|: elprespufferfish: I assure you it was a failure to instral the coresponding mythtv compilaiton, you mismatched veriosns its bad
[17:36:25] |Torg|: I have personnly downloaded mythtv and mythplugs right afterward adn gotten two differnt veriosns
[17:36:57] |Torg|: you have to make sure they are the same verison, same revision and MUST compile and install mythttv first
[17:37:14] |Torg|: failure to do wo will result in exactly the error you get, problems with libmythtv-soemthing
[17:37:35] iamlindoro__: You have no chance to survive make your time...
[17:39:41] elprespufferfish: |Torg|, thank you for your help
[17:40:47] |Torg|: np
[17:42:41] |Torg|: hmm I have two exact model disks, with exact same dimenstions and geomtery, but have differing inode and block count, anyone have any ideas why?

[17:43:41] |Torg|: yes Dagmar its what I suspect, but they ahve the same firmware as well
[17:43:51] iamlindoro__: tonyr1988, since it's not really a myth issue, #mplayer may be the better palce to check

[18:01:00] javatexan: good try though
[18:01:26] |Torg|: if your programs cant get enough proiroty on yoru CPU it is a threadding issue

[18:02:07] javatexan: ffmpeg...what else is there

[18:02:41] iamlindoro__: that was for javatexan
[18:02:46] javatexan: okay
[18:03:07] iamlindoro__: you can also pass -lavdopts threads=2:fast:skiploopfilter=all to mplayer if necessary
[18:03:17] javatexan: right now I love that it uses 178% of the cpu when I am not using mythtv to view something....but......

[19:32:23] GreyFoxx: Rants about gmails hiding of quoted text in email replies and defaulting to topposting and such
[19:32:40] GreyFoxx: reading crap like that hurts my brain too much so I skipped most of it :)
[19:35:05] |Torg|: so they are bitching about google mail?
[19:35:45] GreyFoxx: it turned into that :)
[19:36:07] |Torg|: all I see is stuff about quoted text being hidden, that and someone asking about RCA inputs
[19:36:38] |Torg|: I generally only read the users list for anecdotal infomraiotn

[19:38:12] clever: calls to finish

[19:41:05] iamlindoro__: Torg, yeah
[19:41:23] GreyFoxx: Do you remember what they are expected to retail for ?
[19:41:27] iamlindoro__: $250
[19:41:29] GreyFoxx: ouch
[19:41:32] |Torg|: I got that for maybe a few frams before it died, im assuming anyting I get from apt is out of date
[19:41:38] GreyFoxx: if they were $100 I'd buy 2
[19:41:44] GreyFoxx: at $250 it's a hardsell
[19:42:05] iamlindoro__: |Torg|, Yeah, I played with it on the repos version of myth, just get junk... SVN seems to work "ok" though... audio sync issues but that's better than nothing
[19:42:35] iamlindoro__: I think I'm gonna be in the market for 3ish... will take the hit once to escape the cable companies grasp
[19:42:43] |Torg|: who is reponsible fopr roing mplayer updates into myth?
[19:42:57] GreyFoxx: you mean ffmpeg I assume ?:)

[19:43:45] iamlindoro__: From my discussion w/ the ffmpeg-dev list, I tihnk it's more likely we'll see tweaks necessary to handle the modified Transport Stream on the myth side than on the ffmpeg side at first
[19:43:48] GreyFoxx: so with a pair of receivers and a paire of hd-pvr's I'd be happy
[19:43:51] |Torg|: yes GreyFoxx im a infrastrucure guy, to me its the software that playes video/mplayer==ffmpeg in my mind

[19:44:33] |Torg|: iamlindoro as far as I could tell the transport stream was fine, its what was in it I had problems with
[19:44:53] |Torg|: the audio claimed not to have any sync signals and the video keps compaling of PAFF
[19:45:44] iamlindoro__: |Torg|, I'm inclined to believe mkrufky when he says it's non-standard... also, running it through a TS analyzer returns some results that it doesn't know what to do with

[19:46:38] GreyFoxx: well, I can seek around in mkv files now
[19:46:41] iamlindoro__: So I think mplayer/ffmpeg can half-ass their way through it, but if we want to see actual processing of the streams and transcoding, there are going to need to be some changes
[19:46:45] GreyFoxx: but it has serious issues :)

[19:47:41] |Torg|: and I sort of wonder what the reasoning behind making a chip that did the non-standard stuff anyway
[19:47:42] iamlindoro__: hey speak of the devil
[19:47:50] mkrufky: is you play it back, you'll see it is not handled properly
[19:48:01] mkrufky: (thats what happens when you say my name, iamlindoro__)
[19:48:10] mkrufky: S/IS/IF
[19:48:32] iamlindoro__: mkrufky, yeah, audio sync issues even in yesterdays mplayer SVN.... video and audio are at least playable, though, so it's step
[19:48:39] mkrufky: ok
[19:48:50] iamlindoro__: mkrufky, was only running it through an analyzer to see if I could begin to determine differences
[19:49:09] iamlindoro__: but my knowledge of such things is limited so perhaps it's a moot point :)
[19:49:46] |Torg|: can I upgrade ffmpeg without mplayer?
[19:49:51] iamlindoro__: sure
[19:50:04] mkrufky: my knowledge of it is even more limiting — i know how the hardware works, and i take its output and feed a dshow filter and the stream looks fine at that point..... exactly WHAT is dont in that dshow filter is an unknown to me
[19:50:09] iamlindoro__: mplayer svn fetches ffmpeg as part of the svn co
[19:50:16] mkrufky: s/dont/sone

[19:50:18] mkrufky: done
[19:50:56] iamlindoro__: hmmm
[19:51:11] |Torg|: mkrufky: I wasnt complaining about what you do. I was jsut commenting on the enginner that made whaever chip is in it. Why make one that does not put out a known standard
[19:51:23] mkrufky: eheh calm down guys
[19:51:28] mkrufky: no offense taken :-)
[19:52:17] mkrufky: as i understand it, its a mix between two known standards that dont really belong together
[19:52:36] mkrufky: mpeg2 container with h264 inside, something sounds like it should be right, but just isnt
[19:53:00] |Torg|: and I sort of doubt at this late stage that someone would change it

[19:54:52] mkrufky: so that the stream can be decoded before we even have to worry about a driver
[19:55:01] iamlindoro__: (previous comments relate to that thread, by the way, not the current discussion)
[19:55:05] Frosty: On MythVideo/Mplayer is it possible to find the associated external subtitle from in a seperate folder? like ./subtitles/
[19:55:46] |Torg|: mkrufky: I am greatfull you did, but I am simply an end user, not a devloper. Hopefully someone can use it to be proactive

[19:56:40] |Torg|: what I personnly want a mpeg2+ac3 capture, I want that because that is what I get off atsc now. But like I said yesterday, I doubt many would agree with me
[19:56:54] mkrufky: well, hopefully the upload to mplayerhq will lead to something
[19:57:19] iamlindoro__: mkrufky, Their current comments appear to be "Meh, looks fine to me."  :-/
[19:57:46] mkrufky: based on that ^ i conclude that either a) they're using trunk and it *does* work
[19:57:47] mkrufky: or
[19:57:59] mkrufky: b) hey analyzed the stream but didnt actually try to play it
[19:58:03] mkrufky: ^They
[19:58:08] ** mkrufky keyboard suxxx **
[19:58:18] iamlindoro__: mkrufky, I went to yesterday's SVN, can't even copy the streams to a new container-- I would call that broken

[20:04:17] iamlindoro__: This was all in the last week or so IIRC

[20:07:15] GreyFoxx: the libav mkv demuxer doesn't fill in cur_dts and myth uses that for calculating how many frames to skip after a av_seek_Frame
[20:07:50] GreyFoxx: we were seeking and then trying to skip "by decoding first" hundreds of frames
[20:08:02] iamlindoro__: ahhh, that makes perfect sense

[21:19:15] directhex: no idea on mplayer behaviour

[21:41:39] noclue: okay, i just built my mythtv box and I have a few questions. First, do I NEED a listing provider (i.e. Schedules Direct) to receive all my channel listings? Because when I do a manual scan, it only picks up three channels even though I'm running through my STB. Secondly, does anyone know where I can find resources for IR Blasting via the Hauppauge PVR-150MCE's included remote/blaster?
[21:42:12] directhex: you need a listing source (even if it's set to null) for myth to work at all
[21:42:25] iamlindoro__: also, you don't do a channel scan when you're running through a STB

[21:43:20] noclue: So I do need a listing provider even with my STB right?
[21:43:31] noclue: okay, i'll delve further into the wiki for that info. thanks

[21:45:19] iamlindoro__: short short version 'cause they expect me to work at my work, set up a listings source (SchedulesDirect), set up the lineup at SchedulesDirect for your cable co, set up that source in mythtv-setup, press "fetch lineups from listings source".... *that's* how you get your lineup to show up in myth, not with the channel scan (at least, not when using a STB)
[21:46:24] iamlindoro__: second question, look up channel change scrip tin the wiki, also read the article on lirc, short version is channel change scripts are little bash scripts that use the irsend command to send ir codes via /dev/lircd
[21:46:45] noclue: so basically, while using my STB i'll be viewing my provider's listings, but for any recording I do, i'll be using schedule direct's listings?
[21:46:57] iamlindoro__: You will never use your providers listings
[21:47:29] sn9: noclue: why are you using an analog STB, anyway? standard-definition premium?
[21:47:35] |Torg|: actually that depends, some providers get their listings from the same source as SD does
[21:47:47] noclue: sn9, yes.
[21:48:21] noclue: Okay. I guess I should just shut up and dish out the damn $20 for schedules direct. ;) Thanks everyone.

[23:46:44] rooaus: joobie: Although you will audio issues when using hdmi you could test a 50Hz modeline over hdmi and see if that makes it perfect.
[23:46:54] rooaus: *will have
[23:47:08] runoff: PRV-150 went missing on secondary backend, not seen during backend setup??

[23:47:57] joobie: ahh.. yea i dont think the cable will cost too much
[23:48:21] joobie: but rooaus, say it works.. i dont have much option other than buying this 200$USD device that combines a seperate audio channel into a single hdmi with video
[23:49:39] rooaus: joobie: If you had a cable you could try it would be worth it, but I am not sure about buying it to test. Is it really $200 to get something to combine audio and video? Man that seems expensive.

[23:55:33] joobie: check out the top link
[23:55:33] joobie: yaa
[23:55:45] joobie: it's probably so "niche" at the moment that they can get away with those prices
[23:56:16] joobie: it's good tho rooaus
[23:56:25] joobie: i mean it's come a long way since 2 days ago:P
[23:56:47] joobie: my audio is the next thing im not sure about tho
[23:57:13] joobie: my mac mini has a digital out... AC3 or something.... but i am using the headphone jack on the back.. with a convertor to make that split out to two RCA's
[23:58:05] joobie: TV only has RCA in for audio tho..
[23:58:15] rooaus: joobie: See what it looks like on content you will normally be watching, then see if you want to put more effort into it.
[23:58:15] joobie: do you think it'll be better quality to use the digital out and convert that to RCA?
[23:58:23] joobie: true
[23:58:39] joobie: well the today show is where it's really noticable..
[23:59:01] joobie: i just sit there eating my breakfast and think about how good it used to be when i had the aerial going direct to the TV:P it's a bad start to the morning eheh
