| [00:35:24] | wagnerrp: | ive got a couple hundred movies ripped into mythvideo, and its a bit tedious to move from one end of the list to the other |
| [00:35:30] | wagnerrp: | i suppose i could set up filters... |

| [00:44:12] | Cyberai: | Does anyone know of a way to password protect mythtv itself, not just mythweb? I'd like a screen to come up if mythtv is idle for 15 minutes or so that requires a password to get past. Is there such a thing? |
| [00:45:12] | wagnerrp: | why? |
| [00:45:20] | GreyFoxx: | myth has no such ability |
| [00:45:25] | iamlindoro: | MythTV has no built in screen locking... guess you could try to rig something up with your screensaver, though |
| [00:45:28] | GreyFoxx: | I suppose you could use a screensaver with a password |
| [00:45:34] | wagnerrp: | you can set up parental access to restrict viewing |
| [00:45:43] | wagnerrp: | based on ratings |
| [00:45:52] | Cyberai: | yeah, but only to videos |
| [00:46:04] | wagnerrp: | ah, never actually looked into it |
| [00:47:07] | Cyberai: | my tv is in my finished basement and my teenageer has her bedroom down there. My bedroom is on the 2nd floor. I'm looking for a way to prevent her from waiting until im in bed and then staying up all night watching cable. |
| [00:47:39] | wagnerrp: | turn the machine off? boot up password? |
| [00:47:39] | Cyberai: | without using cron to shut off the frontend or something. She's good with computers and would know how to restart it |
| [00:47:54] | wagnerrp: | well if shes good with computers, youre screwed |
| [00:48:08] | wagnerrp: | physical access beats any sensible level of security |
| [00:48:23] | Cyberai: | well no, I only use a tv remote and I do record things overnight sometimes |
| [00:48:29] | joat: | parental lock on the cable box? |
| [00:48:41] | GreyFoxx: | or check the logs and see if something was watched and talk to her |
| [00:48:41] | Cyberai: | she's not that good, but good enough to find the right icon and fir it up |
| [00:48:53] | Cyberai: | hmmm, good point about the logs |
| [00:48:59] | Cyberai: | hadn't thought to do that |
| [00:49:25] | iamlindoro: | GreyFoxx: whoah, whoah... this is 2008, parents don't DO that |
| [00:49:45] | Cyberai: | oh no dude, I SOOOO do stuff like that |
| [00:49:53] | iamlindoro: | umm... not the logs part |
| [00:49:53] | GreyFoxx: | If I was worried about it I would |
| [00:50:05] | iamlindoro: | I meant the TALKING to their children part |
| [00:50:10] | GreyFoxx: | But I don't even hide my porn directory, it's right at the root of mythvideo |
| [00:50:15] | GreyFoxx: | so ... :) |
| [00:50:16] | iamlindoro: | What good is mythTV if it can't auto-parent, damnit?? |
| [00:50:18] | GreyFoxx: | iam: hehe |
| [00:50:26] | Cyberai: | I read her email, watch her myspace, check her room once or twince a month. I talk to her too, but teens are teens |
| [00:51:29] | wagnerrp: | just make sure she keeps normal hours |
| [00:51:50] | wagnerrp: | if shes up at a normal hour, and doesnt take naps, late nights should be readily appearant |

| [00:56:11] | iamlindoro: | Anduin: I am noticing that the SetCategory function in metadata.h is commented out (I was going to add automatically setting Genre/Category to MythVideo)... is there a reason that I should avoid doing so? |
| [00:56:44] | wagnerrp: | genre is already set by the imdb perl script |
| [00:57:06] | wagnerrp: | category seems like something should be left to the user to set |
| [00:57:46] | iamlindoro: | Ah, I see that, I had mashed the two together in my head :) |

| [01:02:00] | wagnerrp: | like for a TV show? |
| [01:02:03] | iamlindoro: | yeah, put a file called folder.jpg or folder.png in the folder |
| [01:02:12] | wagnerrp: | really... |
| [01:02:15] | iamlindoro: | yep |
| [01:02:30] | iamlindoro: | I do it for all of mine |
| [01:02:46] | GreyFoxx: | same here |
| [01:03:06] | GreyFoxx: | though I have mine patched to look for any jpg if it doesn't find afolder.jpg |

| [01:28:29] | wagnerrp: | well default is 50 |
| [01:28:42] | GreyFoxx: | must be a 100 then |
| [01:28:49] | wagnerrp: | although i suppose that it wont speed up scrolling any |

| [01:30:39] | DinkyDogg: | just got a pchdtv HD-5500 cable card |
| [01:30:46] | DinkyDogg: | i've been trying to get it to work in my Ubuntu myth setup |
| [01:31:02] | DinkyDogg: | i don't really understand a lot of what i'm doing |
| [01:31:09] | DinkyDogg: | i have comcast digital cable i'm trying to hook it up to |
| [01:31:16] | DinkyDogg: | and a schedules direct account |
| [01:31:20] | wagnerrp: | chances are you cant do that |
| [01:31:23] | DinkyDogg: | really? |
| [01:31:29] | wagnerrp: | digital cable is primarily encrypted |
| [01:31:39] | DinkyDogg: | damn |
| [01:31:43] | DinkyDogg: | that sucks |
| [01:31:46] | wagnerrp: | some people can receive most channels through a digital tuner card |
| [01:31:57] | wagnerrp: | most people can just receive the local broadcast channels |
| [01:32:20] | DinkyDogg: | i scanned for qam-64 and 256 channels |
| [01:32:23] | DinkyDogg: | only found a handful |
| [01:32:27] | Anduin: | iamlindoro: best reason to avoid it currently is the work gbee is doing on it now |
| [01:32:45] | DinkyDogg: | it found a lot of channels it called "unknown" |
| [01:32:49] | DinkyDogg: | and a couple it had names for |
| [01:32:53] | DinkyDogg: | like KQED-HD |
| [01:34:01] | wagnerrp: | well frequently on demand channels are unencrypted |
| [01:34:37] | wagnerrp: | but theyre not broadcasting anything until they get allocated |

| [01:37:59] | DinkyDogg: | also, i don't seem to be able to download the channel listing from schedules direct anymore |
| [01:38:19] | wagnerrp: | well if you have schedules direct, you shouldnt need to do a channel scan |
| [01:39:03] | wagnerrp: | i dont know why you wouldnt be able to download a channel listing |
| [01:39:12] | DinkyDogg: | i think i was doing it wrong... |
| [01:39:21] | DinkyDogg: | do i need to run mythfilldatabase in order to download the listing? |
| [01:39:35] | wagnerrp: | schedule, yes |
| [01:39:41] | wagnerrp: | listings are done through mythtv-setup |
| [01:39:50] | DinkyDogg: | huh |
| [01:40:09] | DinkyDogg: | i hit the button to fetch listings from source, and nothing happens, and i can't select any starting channel |
| [01:40:15] | DinkyDogg: | it says to add channel listings to the sourch |
| [01:40:17] | DinkyDogg: | *source |
| [01:40:30] | DinkyDogg: | i'm running mythfilldatabase to see if that makes any difference... |

| [02:26:00] | wagnerrp: | well thats mpeg2 |
| [02:26:13] | wagnerrp: | you can recompress to h.264 for about 1/4–1/5 the size |

| [02:26:43] | MartinCleaver: | can I get mythtv to do that automatically? |

| [02:41:37] | wagnerrp: | so as long as youre under 6.2GB/hr, you should be able to fit it onto a DVD |
| [02:41:55] | wagnerrp: | of course its not going to be playable in a dvd player |

| [05:02:50] | fr0k: | Hmm. mythfrontend --reset fixed the problem |
| [05:03:15] | fr0k: | I wonder what the problem actually was? Found it in relation to someone switching from Qt to OpenGL, which I did with no problems. |

| [05:04:11] | fr0k: | Maybe it's just this old Geforce stinks with OpenGL support. |
| [05:04:38] | wagnerrp: | well i know the gf2s have not been supported by nvidia for some time |
| [05:05:04] | wagnerrp: | and theres almost no reason to run the opengl interface through mesa |

| [05:07:47] | wagnerrp: | AFAIK, the only advantage to the opengl interface over the QT one is that the onscreen text is unaffected by the video resolution |
| [05:09:31] | fr0k: | I switched to OpenGL because it was making the menus much quicker. |
| [05:10:03] | fr0k: | There's a two to three second delay when moving through options on the main menus. The video listings in MythVideo are unaffected by it, however. |
| [05:10:16] | fr0k: | OpenGL cut the delay down to one second. |
| [05:10:25] | fr0k: | Still crappy, but somewhat more bearable. |
| [05:10:35] | mzb_d800: | greater than mx400 will give a better result (for mpeg2) with xvmc support |
| [05:11:23] | fr0k: | Alright. I can get hold of an ATI 9700 AIW tomorrow. Perhaps that would be better? |
| [05:11:46] | fr0k: | I'm not sure how well ATI is supported on Linux. Haven't looked into it recently. |
| [05:13:52] | wagnerrp: | there are fglrx drivers for all radeon cards |
| [05:14:01] | wagnerrp: | but there are mixed results with them |
| [05:17:17] | mzb_d800: | nvidia generally appears to have better results (under most circumstances) |
| [05:17:42] | mzb_d800: | 5 and 6 series have good reviews (for mythtv) |
| [05:17:47] | fr0k: | Hm. Darn. |

| [10:54:13] | andreax: | In my case, I got a mbe and a client. So long the client is inside the menu, the backend will never shutdown (even not the client)... If the sleep timer would end the frontend, mythwelcome would shutdown the client (together with the backend)... |
| [10:55:40] | andreax: | In my eyes it would make much more sense, ending the frontend with the sleeptimer than kicking it back to the menu.... for the records... :) |

| [11:39:51] | dustybin: | justinh: at least ff fixes are instant |
| [11:40:11] | dustybin: | IE could stay unpatched for ages |
| [11:40:24] | justinh: | it could for all I care :) |
| [11:40:40] | justinh: | never mind the insecurity of it, it's just awful |
| [11:40:55] | ** dustybin phishes justinh ** | |
| [11:41:29] | justinh: | and btw yet again, tried MCE on Vista. it's more gash than a gashy thing with a big gash in it. bloody piss-poor UI |
| [11:42:06] | justinh: | so – who gives a shite if it won't pick up a backend's upnp server? ;-) |
| [11:42:39] | justinh: | one of those things you know – I'd had the laptop a few days & got curious. needless to say I won't be running it again |
| [11:43:06] | dustybin: | heh |
| [11:43:36] | justinh: | since the EU court dropped a weight on MS from a big height for all the wired-in 'goodness' in XP, how about a massive suit for them forcing MCE on so many folks? :D |
| [11:46:38] | dustybin: | justinh: what do you think of this |
| [11:46:40] | dustybin: | http://www.ehomeupgrade.com/2008/07/10/mythtv . . . ode-release/ |
| [11:46:47] | justinh: | wooo just received my set from Friday night. I couldn't remember what I was doing when Ableton fell over. Now I know. Brothers In Rhythm – Peace & Harmony is wot did it guv'nor |
| [11:47:24] | justinh: | if I had an opinion, it wouldn't be a particularly positive one |
| [11:47:51] | dustybin: | hehe |
| [11:47:51] | justinh: | what the world needs right now is not another tiny crippled frontend :) |
| [11:48:26] | dustybin: | what the world needs right now is not another OVER-SIZED BIG frontend :) |
| [11:48:40] | justinh: | the key word there is _crippled_ |
| [11:48:48] | dustybin: | ok |
| [11:49:14] | dustybin: | can that little box output digital audio? |
| [11:49:34] | justinh: | certainly looks like it |
| [11:49:48] | dustybin: | remote control? |
| [11:50:30] | dustybin: | this is what it looks like with the case on |
| [11:50:32] | dustybin: | http://www.roku.com/netflixplayer/ |
| [11:50:56] | justinh: | saying that, it might be worth a punt since it's only £50 |
| [11:50:59] | dustybin: | $99.00 ! |
| [11:51:08] | dustybin: | yep |
| [11:51:31] | justinh: | then again, I doubt it'll ever be sold in the UK, meaning you'd have to resort to dodgy ebay sellers |
| [11:51:41] | dustybin: | just order one from US |
| [11:52:34] | dustybin: | http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Roku-Netflix-Player-NIB . . . 86.m63.l1177 |
| [11:53:15] | dustybin: | if one day that box works with mythtv frontend + HD, ill buy a 2 of them |
| [11:53:57] | justinh: | the really important question to ask is this: have the drivers for the decoding hardware also been open sourced? |
| [11:54:24] | justinh: | if not, forget all about this daydreaming :D |
| [11:55:17] | dustybin: | "It appears that Roku might be smarter than we give them credit for. The company has just released GPL code for its $99.99 Netflix Player" |
| [11:55:22] | dustybin: | does that also mean the drivers? |
| [11:56:20] | dustybin: | if that does mean drivers, that would mean the end to all frontend HD problems |
| [11:57:59] | dustybin: | here are parts of the source code used in the player |
| [11:58:01] | dustybin: | http://www.roku.com/community/gpl_nfp.php |
| [12:01:51] | dustybin: | im not sure if the drivers are in that list |
| [12:04:23] | justinh: | 'GPL code' doesn't necessarily mean ALL the code needed to do anything *useful* with the little box |
| [12:05:52] | justinh: | aaand as ever, to run a true mythfrontend on it you'd have to jump through all the hoops to get it running on a framebuffer. Yay :-\ |
| [12:06:43] | justinh: | oh, but the stb225 chip is what does the heavy lifting, and it seems there's code for that :) |
| [12:07:19] | dustybin: | now that is interesting |
| [12:07:28] | justinh: | so, maybe not *the* mythfrontend, but *a* frontend |
| [12:08:00] | dustybin: | maybe a bastardized mythtv frontend |

| [12:12:04] | dustybin: | ok |
| [12:12:06] | justinh: | it could play mpeg1 or (!) mpeg2 |

| [18:47:14] | cesman: | you'll need one to control the 'cable box'.... |
| [18:47:28] | joez212: | its a serial port on one end, and the IR part on the other end |
| [18:47:55] | joez212: | it reminds me of that plastic part on the front of every tv |

| [19:04:30] | cesman: | an ir blaster controls a 'cable box' |
| [19:05:20] | joez212: | because i have setup with my cable provider at the moment, and its able to change channels just fine |
| [19:05:28] | joez212: | i do not have a cable box top for my cable |

| [19:08:21] | BULLE: | joez212: i havent paid attention toyoru setup, but th eonly time i have problems with using both cable and satellite, are when both sources have the same channels, then myth gets all wierd |
| [19:08:58] | BULLE: | joez212: simple solution then is to just name the channels differently, even though they are the same, it works pretty ok, some minor issues, but thats all |
| [19:09:04] | inful: | Is the following scenario possible: One mythtv-server with PVR-350, one mythtv-frontend. Using the frontend, I would like to have the recorded shows played through the PVR-350 on the server (which is connected to the TV)? |
| [19:09:22] | joez212: | bulle: thanks for the info |
| [19:10:46] | BULLE: | inful: but the server and frontend are still running on separate computers ? |
| [19:10:58] | inful: | bulle: Yes |
| [19:11:23] | BULLE: | inful: afaik the frontend does the playback, the server recording, so no that would not work, but why not just run the frontend on the server ? |

| [19:23:06] | dustybin: | http://www.hardwarelogic.com/articles/reviews . . . ilt_Side.jpg |
| [19:23:09] | dustybin: | perfek! |
| [19:23:20] | dustybin: | the case is a beast |
| [19:23:47] | Dagmar_: | You're not going to be able to hear very well over those fans. |
| [19:23:53] | Dagmar_ is now known as Dagmar | |
| [19:24:04] | dustybin: | Dagmar_: you can buy silent 120mm fans, i use 2 already on my backend |
| [19:24:08] | AndyCap: | dustybin: depends on how you mount them. at least 18. perhaps 24. |
| [19:24:13] | justinh: | here's a great backend case for most people who come in here asking for advice: http://tinyurl.com/223rpn |
| [19:24:28] | dustybin: | LOL |
| [19:24:33] | Dagmar: | Six of them is going to make noise, regardless. |
| [19:24:44] | dustybin: | Dagmar: aye true |
| [19:24:47] | justinh: | just put all the hardware in that, problem solved! |
| [19:24:51] | Dagmar: | You'd have to practically grommet and foam the entire inside of the case to dampen that |
| [19:25:45] | Dagmar: | Antec NSK2480 == full of win for frontends |
| [19:26:01] | Dagmar: | That Lian Li would make a fine backend box tho |
| [19:27:25] | dustybin: | Dagmar: this would be any ordinary backend, this will be a HD backend :P |

| [19:29:36] | dustybin: | lol |
| [19:29:42] | Dagmar: | Ten 3.5 bays is quite a lot |
| [19:29:45] | dustybin: | i was thinking about 4/5 TB |
| [19:29:56] | dustybin: | for HD recording |
| [19:30:07] | dustybin: | another disk for zoneminder |
| [19:30:08] | Dagmar: | Always plan cases for _next years_ hard drive peaks |
| [19:30:14] | dustybin: | and another disk for OS |
| [19:30:15] | Dagmar: | So, that'll be 1Tb drives. |
| [19:30:34] | Dagmar: | Ya do this because cases don't become obsolete excepting in decadely increments |
| [19:31:02] | dustybin: | what happens when solid state comes alive |
| [19:31:31] | dustybin: | maybe the death of the hard drive is around the corner |

| [19:35:23] | Dagmar: | The same people who came up with the perpendicular recording technology that gave us the 500Gb/1Tb disks already had _another_ breakthrough that should iht market last quarter 2009 or first quarter 2010 |

| [22:07:08] | iamlindoro: | MythTV doesn't do card support, linuxtv does... check the DVB wiki at linuxtv.org... if it works with linux, it'll work with Myth. |
| [22:07:27] | bex: | um i have been trying to reach that site since yesterday with no luc |
| [22:07:30] | bex: | luck |
| [22:07:47] | iamlindoro: | then your internet is broken, comes right up for me. Try again. www.linuxtv.org |
| [22:07:58] | bex: | nope |
| [22:08:02] | nuonguy: | iamlindoro: what's so radically different about mysql in mythtv trunk versus .21-fixes? |
| [22:08:33] | iamlindoro: | nuonguy: Nothing. Never said there was. |

| [22:09:05] | iamlindoro: | Complain to your ISP |
| [22:09:09] | nuonguy: | I probably misunderstood, but you said that following a howto is no longer valid when installing trunk |
| [22:10:01] | zlyzyr (zlyzyr!n=mike@cpe-76-180-122-198.buffalo.res.rr.com) has quit (Remote closed the connection) | |
| [22:10:06] | iamlindoro: | nuonguy: What I said was "whatever howto you are following may no longer be valid." ie, installing trunk requires different dependencies than it did a few months ago, and a vast majority of the Howtos for "Myth Trunk compiling" may no longer apply. |
| [22:10:38] | nuonguy: | but the mythtv mysql tables will still work if I upgraded from .21-fixes to trunk? |
| [22:10:58] | ** nuonguy is a bit of a db newb ** | |
| [22:11:51] | iamlindoro: | of course they will, the DB itself really only changes incrementally-- and mythbackend and mythtv-setup are capable of upgrading the schema of any older DB when run... rolling *back* however, is the near-impossible part |
| [22:12:23] | iamlindoro: | But really, I said nothing to him specific to databases, as that had nothing to do with his problem |
| [22:12:47] | iamlindoro: | his problem was missing dependencies, hinting that he was following an out-of-date howto, or not following an up-to-date one very well |
| [22:12:54] | nuonguy: | I see |

| [22:29:51] | bex: | also i could not tell that it was not supported |
| [22:30:18] | bex: | how do i know if i need atsc or dvb-c or other? |
| [22:30:31] | iamlindoro: | By looking on a globe and seeing where you live |
| [22:31:04] | iamlindoro: | and if you live in the one above Mexico, you want ATSC/QAM. And if you live anywhere civilized, you want DVB-something |

| [22:36:08] | bex: | ok my next question is how do i know if it is hardware encoding or not |
| [22:37:39] | iamlindoro: | These aren't Myth questions. You should seek help in #v4l. A hardware encoder will generally include sales jargon like "with MPEG-2 hardware encoding..." |

| [22:54:44] | iamlindoro: | #v4l is the name of the channel you should be asking your general TV-on-linux questions in... then, once you have purchased a compatible tuner and made it work in linux, you can seek support for myth here. |

| [22:57:51] | GreyFoxx: | iam: That is the same problem |
| [22:58:16] | iamlindoro: | GreyFoxx: yep, that one bites me on various channels and is really painful when it does |
| [22:58:33] | GreyFoxx: | seems to affect all of my hd recordings |
| [22:58:34] | iamlindoro: | GreyFoxx: My workaround posted there sort-of works but introduces audio sync issues quite often |
| [23:02:43] | GreyFoxx: | hmmm this should be fun to track down |
| [23:03:42] | iamlindoro: | GreyFoxx: *Please* don't hesitate to ask me to test patches/provide samples etc. on this one, I am extremely happy to do whatever I can-- This one is really painful for me |
