jblack: Ah hell! If only you would have alt-tabbed my name right. I just watched the whole landing on the crappy WMV nasa TV stream! |
[00:05:14] |
jblack: |
sorry |
[00:05:21] |
Tanthrix: |
Er, tab completed. |
[00:05:33] |
Tanthrix: |
No worries. They got a landing confirmation signal, so I'm happy. |
[00:05:55] |

[00:06:16] |
Tanthrix: |
Couple hours at least. Should be tonight though. |

[01:28:00] |
kdub: |
t |
[01:29:24] |
WattoDaToydarian: |
Hey does anyone know how to slow down the amount of HDD usage mythtranscode uses like how you can tell mythtv to slowly delete files? |
[01:30:45] |
cesman: |
whaaaaaaaaaaa? |
[01:31:09] |
kdub: |
I do not get it either. |
[01:31:33] |
WattoDaToydarian: |
what I asked? |
[01:31:49] |
kdub: |
yeah |
[01:33:19] |
WattoDaToydarian: |
well I do lossless mpeg2 transcodes just to cut out the cutpoints and when I run it the HDD is consumed almost completly and I can't watch any recordings and I get IOBOUND errors if it's recording. |
[01:34:53] |
WattoDaToydarian: |
I just want to slow the progress of mythtranscode so I can still use the system while it is running |
[01:35:44] |
cesman: |
ahhh |
[01:35:46] |
cesman: |
nice |
[01:35:54] |
cesman: |
or renice |
[01:37:17] |
WattoDaToydarian: |
nice only changes the CPU priority right? The lossless option doesnt really use any CPU, I just want to reduse the amount of HDD usage like what the slowly delete option is for. |
[01:37:45] |
cesman: |

Get more disk |

i really hate the about linux |

kdub: |
saving a damn file takes over your machine |
[01:43:05] |
hads: |
? |
[01:43:26] |
WattoDaToydarian: |
yeah, deleting too. So there is no way to slow the amount of disk usage for a given program? |
[01:44:01] |
kdub: |
i do not think disk usage is the term you are looking for |
[01:44:34] |
kdub: |
linux gives really high priority to dish input/output, and it is slowing down your machine while transcoding |
[01:44:48] |
kdub: |
dish=disk |
[01:45:30] |
WattoDaToydarian: |
Ah right, that's what I meant. I want to reduse the disk I/O for the transcoder. |
[01:46:07] |
kdub: |
i looked into how to do it on my machine at work and i couldnt find anything |
[01:47:14] |
WattoDaToydarian: |
Yeah I don't see anything either. I guess it is something that has to be programed into the individual program. |
[01:47:35] |
kdub: |
no i think its just the OS |
[01:48:06] |
kdub: |
cp a 4 gig file and watch your cursor skip around when you move the mouse |
[01:48:54] |
hads: |
Not a problem here, perhaps it's your box. |
[01:48:55] |
WattoDaToydarian: |
the cursor skipping usually means for me that DMA isn't enabled. |

[02:52:52] |
Aval0n: |
what window manager are you using? |
[02:53:12] |
Aval0n: |
most of the devs would tell you to not let gnome load at all |
[02:53:21] |
Aval0n: |
and to use something like openbox or similar |
[02:53:38] |
hads: |
Or just no window manager |
[02:54:00] |
Aval0n: |
well then you have issues if you want to use any external apps, i.e. mplayer, vlc etc... |
[02:54:12] |
Aval0n: |
won't carry over mouse focus and such |
[02:54:24] |
Aval0n: |
or just focus I mean |
[02:54:27] |
Aval0n: |
not mouse focus :) |
[02:54:40] |

Not much need to use external apps nw that the internal player is so good though. |

meh. Works fine here. |
[02:55:42] |
Aval0n: |
good |
[02:55:47] |
Aval0n: |
I use it mostly |
[02:56:09] |
Aval0n: |
for people with borderline systems mplayer is a better option for some hd video |
[02:56:23] |
Aval0n: |
unless you just wanna use that patch to enable the skiploopfilter |
[02:56:31] |
Aval0n: |
but then you HD video looks about as good as your analog stuff |
