[01:04:54] | Wagner: | ive never actually connected it to this machine |
[01:05:01] | Wagner: | i moved from fixes to trunk over the weekend |
[01:05:09] | gregL: | Should work then |
[01:05:20] | Wagner: | and the previous machine it was connected to (my freebsd file server) could not compile trunk |

[01:06:57] | gregL: | silicondust has a setup program.maybe that will help you.. Firewall maybe? |
[01:07:08] | Wagner: | no matter, recordings are already shifted back to my 150s, and im not shutting down the backend while its recording |
[01:07:34] | Wagner: | it worked fine last week on fixes, it worked fine under windows (and the SD program) this weekend |
[01:07:36] | Wagner: | no firewalls |
[01:07:46] | Wagner: | the backend machine can ping the hdhr fine |
[01:10:01] | Wagner: | killed the windows software before power cycling, assuming it was somehow binding to the hdhr and locking it |

[01:11:54] | Wagner: | as i said, i could ping it |
[01:12:03] | gregL: | right |
[01:12:08] | Gumby: | hi all. I have a friend using mythtv and he wants to have all his recordings playable and seen by windows media center (i know, lame, but thats his choice). is this possibly without first converting them from .nuv to something else? Ive been looking for a nuv codec for windows but havnt found anything yet |
[01:12:31] | Gumby: | possibly/possible |
[01:12:33] | Wagner: | there is a nuv codec that comes with DSMyth |
[01:13:07] | Wagner: | better option would be to dump whatever it is using nuv |
[01:13:22] | Wagner: | or have some external transcode script that changes from nuv to something else |
[01:13:52] | Wagner: | only framegrabbers record to nuv anymore anyway |
[01:14:03] | Gumby: | yeah, he has a whole bunch of recorded stuff right now and just got an xbox 360 and wants to use it as a media extender for windows mce |
[01:14:45] | Wagner: | the 360 has uPnP support, however the 360 SUCKS |
[01:14:57] | clever: | its a microsoft product |
[01:15:03] | Gumby: | hehe |
[01:15:08] | clever: | the only time microsoft will make something that doesnt suck, is when they make a vacume |
[01:15:11] | Wagner: | it does not support the formats required by US digital broadcasts |
[01:15:23] | Wagner: | its got nothing to do with being a microsoft product |
[01:15:30] | Wagner: | it has to do with piss poor codec support |
[01:15:41] | Wagner: | the ps3 has slightly less poor codec support |
[01:16:00] | Wagner: | AFAIK, PVR recordings are not supported either |
[01:16:23] | clever: | and it probly cant handle nuv either |
[01:16:31] | leop (leop!n=unknown@203-59-9-107.perm.iinet.net.au) has joined #mythtv-users | |
[01:16:35] | clever: | so you would need a custom transcode job to make recordings avail for it |
[01:16:36] | Wagner: | well nothing can handle nuvs, but thats not much of a loss |
[01:16:45] | leop: | ok Managed to get the card working |
[01:16:52] | Wagner: | basically, mythtv is the only thing that uses nuvs |
[01:17:08] | clever: | mplayer can play nuv with minor problems |
[01:17:16] | Wagner: | if its properly patched |
[01:17:38] | Wagner: | although i think the patches are part of mainline now |
[01:17:51] | clever: | i didnt patch mine |
[01:17:54] | clever: | mplayer/mencoder never realy had trouble simply decoding |
[01:17:57] | Wagner: | but that still doesnt change the fact that mythtv is the only thing that uses nuvs |
[01:18:00] | clever: | i think i was using trunk |
[01:18:14] | Wagner: | no one else creates them |
[01:18:39] | leop: | But Myth on scan default transponders (i.e Freq 3660000 S/R 27500000) when I try to scan other transponder get nothing (i.e Freq 4000000 S/R 28066000) on C-Band? |
[01:18:45] | clever: | mythtv realy needs more container choices |
[01:19:17] | leop: | anyhelp? |
[01:23:00] | kormoc: | clever, so go code some. |
[01:23:44] | clever: | kormoc: ssh access to my house is laggy atm |
[01:23:51] | clever: | and i can bearly even keep the wifi up |
[01:24:04] | kormoc: | yet it's up enought for you to complain about free stuff... |
[01:24:28] | clever: | its just a comment:P |
[01:24:43] | clever: | right now i cant even access my mythtv network without major lag |
[01:24:52] | kormoc: | If you don't have anything nice to say... |
[01:25:05] | clever: | vnc might work but the vpn is unstable lately |
[01:25:16] | kormoc: | It's as if your parents never taught you any manners... |

[01:52:46] | sphery: | Wayhigh: You'll need dedicated hardware to encode 1080i (something like the HD-PVR, which is probably the only approach that's supported in GNU/Linux at this point). |
[01:53:27] | Wayhigh: | sphery: so the HD tuner cards don't work well? |
[01:53:57] | sphery: | however, most people who get 1080i get it already encoded--i.e. HDTV broadcast OTA or on cable is already encoded in MPEG-2 by the production company. |
[01:53:59] | Wayhigh: | I've got a Kworld 110 that works (no remote for it though) |
[01:54:00] | hads: | If you're receiving a broadcast and dumping it to disk that is fine. |
[01:54:12] | sphery: | HD capture cards simply demodulate the signal and dump the stream to the disk |
[01:54:21] | Wayhigh: | ahh ok |
[01:54:46] | Wayhigh: | I take it that does take too much cpu power then |
[01:55:00] | hads: | Very little |
[01:55:06] | Wayhigh: | I've been wondering if an amd 64 x2 4200 would work ok for it |
[01:55:14] | Wayhigh: | so I guess that would be affirmative :) |
[01:55:25] | sphery: | However, you'll need at least a 3GHz P4 to play back HDTV. However, now that 3GHz P4 is /very/ old tech, you're much better off getting a real processor, like a Core 2 or a good Athlon 64 (dual core or so, probably) |
[01:55:49] | Wayhigh: | has anyone here tried the hdmi out support for the asrock motherboards? |
[01:56:11] | sphery: | Yeah X2 4200 should be fine, but won't necessarily allow you to use high-quality deinterlacers or timestretch to 2x (but you should be able to get at least some timestretch using, for example, kernel deint) |
[01:56:28] | Wayhigh: | sphery: thanks.. I'm planning on setting up one backend box and one frontend box.. the backend may be both front & backend for the time being |
[01:56:59] | sphery: | In the future, when nvidia's VDPAU (on GPU decoding) is supported, you could use less, but IMHO, you should buy your processor as if VDPAU doesn't exist |
[01:57:18] | Wayhigh: | basically.. I have 2 TV's I want to use mythtv on. |
[01:57:30] | hads: | As an example, I can record 5 MPEG SD streams to disk on about 5% of a Core 2 Duo CPU |
[01:57:41] | Wayhigh: | hads: sweet |
[01:57:42] | sphery: | I personally like software decode (=you're in control of decode, not stuck waiting for drivers to be released with fixes) |
[01:58:12] | kormoc: | sphery, I donno if you saw or not, but my card, it be toast :P |
[01:58:30] | sphery: | saw you mentioning your plan to get a new one |
[01:58:37] | sphery: | did you find a Windows box to throw it in? |
[01:58:44] | kormoc: | not yet |
[01:59:16] | sphery: | just curious... I'd love a pic (screenshot or camera) of the Myth OSD overlaid on top of Windows desktop :) |
[01:59:31] | kormoc: | Heh, it only happens during vdpau decoding tho :P |
[01:59:32] | Wayhigh: | what HD card is easiest to get working these days? My kworld 110 took a huge amount of custom hackin to get working when I got it (couple weeks after its release) |
[01:59:40] | kormoc: | so perhaps it'll happen under pure video |
[01:59:53] | Wayhigh: | but unfortunately my mythtv box had to be repurposed as an asterisk box when my asterisk system melted down |
[02:00:55] | sphery: | I have 4 pcHDTV HD-3000's and a friend has 3 Avermedia A-180's. Setting them both up was easy. But, I'll guess that's likely the case for just about any card that was released >1yr ago (i.e. that V4L guys have had time to get support into main line kernel) |
[02:01:33] | Wayhigh: | how's the hauppauge 950q? |
[02:01:37] | sphery: | kormoc: oh, I see... Still would be interesting test if you have the time/means. |
[02:03:04] | kormoc: | sphery, aye, it's weird, xv works great still |

[02:35:48] | Wagner: | you dont want it any other way |
[02:36:20] | Wagner: | last i heard, the 1600 was buggy, the 1800 doesnt work on mythtv, and any other digital card is only going to have a framegrabber for analog |

[03:31:13] | Der_Thomas: | oh right |
[03:31:16] | Der_Thomas: | I see |
[03:31:17] | RyeBrye: | Last year, I set up our "christmas present" TV in early November :) |
[03:31:39] | Der_Thomas: | yeah I've been thinking about buying myself a xmas present now... |
[03:31:55] | Der_Thomas: | I;ve got an old CRT that is begging to get thrown out |
[03:32:22] | RyeBrye: | yeah |
[03:32:26] | RyeBrye: | HDTV's are nice |
[03:32:48] | RyeBrye: | but then they turn into money pits because you have to upgrade the rest of your stuff to get HD recording / storage / whatever :) |
[03:32:54] | Der_Thomas: | Yeah I see a great deal on a panasonic 720p for like $650 or $700 |
[03:33:04] | RyeBrye: | what size are you looking for? |
[03:33:06] | Der_Thomas: | 42" that is |
[03:33:18] | Der_Thomas: | I think that 720p is good enough for 42" |
[03:33:25] | RyeBrye: | I bought a refurb thin-bezeled toshiba 1080p 40" for $769 |
[03:33:28] | Der_Thomas: | what do you think |
[03:33:28] | RyeBrye: | from newegg |
[03:33:36] | Der_Thomas: | oh really? |
[03:33:40] | RyeBrye: | Costco has good deals too |
[03:33:56] | Der_Thomas: | yeah I've seen cheaper one's but they tend to have poor customer reviews |
[03:34:26] | RyeBrye: | http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16889253139 is the one I just bought – I mainly bought that size because it's the largest size I could cram into our existing cabinet upstairs that my wife wants to keep |

[03:35:49] | Lexridge: | I just bought this monitor on Friday: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searc . . . amp;csid=_23 It's suppose to do 1080p, plus I got it a bit cheaper than the advertised price. Hope I didn't screw up |
[03:36:27] | RyeBrye: | Other people know more than I do – but 1024 x 768 doesn't sound like the right resolution – isn't is supposed to be 1367 x 768 or somethign? |
[03:36:34] | Lexridge: | Der_Thomas: looks like a sweet monitor! |
[03:36:35] | RyeBrye: | http://www.techbargains.com/cheap-hdtv.cfm lists some deals on TV's |
[03:37:44] | Der_Thomas: | RyeBrye, so, what this is not telling me is, can this do 1080p24, or something lower? Also I've heard that many 1080p TVs can technically play 1080p on the monitor, but the input can only do 1080i |
[03:37:46] | RyeBrye: | or 1280 x 720 or smething |

[03:38:44] | RyeBrye: | PC Input: Analog RGB ATSC, NTSC, QAM Tuner 1080i/p, 720p, 480i/p |
[03:38:50] | RyeBrye: | It does 1080i or 1080p input signal |
[03:39:01] | Der_Thomas: | RyeBrye, I wonder if that 1024x768 is a missprint, that is a 4:3 res |
[03:39:13] | RyeBrye: | I've seen a lot of TV's that have odd misprints like that |
[03:39:26] | RyeBrye: | enough to make me wonder if they are misprints or what |
[03:39:42] | RyeBrye: | Easiest thing to do woudl be to try to find a download link for the user manual and then read through that |
[03:39:43] | Der_Thomas: | RyeBrye, yeah remember that the ad people are not tech people... |
[03:39:46] | RyeBrye: | user manuals tend to have more specs |
[03:40:04] | Der_Thomas: | right, agree |
[03:40:15] | RyeBrye: | Der_Thomas: Here's the same TV (non refurb) at amazon http://www.amazon.com/Toshiba-REGZA-40RF350U- . . . p/B000W3JHJK |
[03:40:47] | RyeBrye: | Getting it for $500 less and being a refurb seemed like a reasonable deal to me |

[03:43:08] | RyeBrye: | Yeah, time will tell... It's not really my main TV – I have a 50" DLP downstairs that I really like a lot – but my wife wanted a "small" TV upstairs to replace our old CRT TV :) |
[03:43:25] | Der_Thomas: | Any idea what CineSpeed is? the toshiba lists that as a feature |
[03:43:35] | RyeBrye: | I think it's some anti-blur thing they have |
[03:43:43] | Der_Thomas: | makes sense |
[03:43:46] | RyeBrye: | or maybe it's what they call their 3:2 pulldown |
[03:43:51] | RyeBrye: | they all have funky names for stuff |
[03:43:54] | Lexridge: | like the 120hz scan rate? |
[03:44:39] | RyeBrye: | This one doesn't have 120Hz... I hope it doesn't bug me too much |
[03:46:17] | Der_Thomas: | sure it will be fine, however doesn't the Bob 2x filter in myth run at 120Hz? |
[03:46:17] | Der_Thomas: | unless you have a progressive video feeds... |
[03:46:31] | Der_Thomas: | 3:2 pulldown <- is this when you turn 1080i video feeds into 1080p24? |
[03:49:21] | Wagner: | Der_Thomas: yes, also known as inverse telecine |
[03:50:04] | porcodildo (porcodildo!n=wefw@151.64.207.253) has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) | |
[03:50:47] | Wagner: | actually, 3:2 is the method of making 24fps film into 30/60fps broadcasts |
[03:51:01] | Wagner: | or 'telecine' |
[03:51:14] | Der_Thomas: | Wagner, thanks, I'm kind of new to the HD stuff. So my cableco only broadcasts at 720p or 1080i, if I bought a 1080p TV that can do 3:2 pulldown does that mean that I can play 1080p24? |
[03:51:29] | meshe: | if you have a backend with 1 tuner card with 2 frontends, can they both watch the channel that the backend is tuned to? |
[03:51:42] | Wagner: | it means you have a TV that can take p24 content, and play it at 60fps |
[03:52:19] | Der_Thomas: | ...but that would be at 1080i60 right |
[03:52:49] | Wagner: | or it could double it to 1080p60 |
[03:53:02] | Wagner: | actually, im not entirely sure about the teminology |
[03:53:05] | Wagner: | which goes what direction |
[03:53:11] | porcodildo (porcodildo!n=wefw@151.64.200.71) has joined #mythtv-users | |
[03:53:36] | Der_Thomas: | I don't think so reason is that 1080P60 does not exist in the ATSC standard, too high of a bandwidth |
[03:53:51] | Wagner: | oh! but it does exist in the standard |
[03:54:05] | Wagner: | but no one uses it because it would look like ass with the available bandwidth |
[03:54:14] | Der_Thomas: | really? I was reading an article that said no, but it was from 2006 |
[03:54:18] | Lexridge: | yea, I learned this too recently, and I'm in broadcasting!! DOH! |
[03:54:36] | Wagner: | 1080p60 is defined as acceptable in the standard, no one ever uses it |
[03:54:56] | Lexridge: | mainly because it is not backwards compatible. |
[03:54:57] | Der_Thomas: | OK, interesting |
[03:55:09] | Wagner: | and i can pump 1080p60 down a dialup connection |
[03:55:30] | Der_Thomas: | so which is better 1080p24 or 1080i60? |
[03:55:36] | Wagner: | it all depends on the compression youre willing to put up with |
[03:55:51] | Der_Thomas: | Wagner – oh yeah for got about compression |
[03:56:25] | Wagner: | chances are, your source material is going to be from a 24fps progressive source |
[03:56:34] | Wagner: | most tv shows are, nearly all film is |
[03:56:58] | Wagner: | sports are going to be high motion, so those are usually 720p60 anyway |
[03:57:33] | Wagner: | the '3:2 pulldown' support in hardware seems to be that it detects the conversion and automatically reverses it |
[03:58:33] | Der_Thomas: | Yeah that article I was reading was saying that 720 TVs are better to buy since you can get 720p60 broadcasts vs 1080i60 or 1080p24. I think they said that 1080p24 is only 12% more temporar resolution then 720p60 |

[03:59:16] | Der_Thomas: | but 1080i/p TVs usually cost mroe then 12% more |
[03:59:33] | Wagner: | that is all completely meaningless |
[03:59:39] | Lexridge: | the general thinking in broadcasting is, it is better to up convert from 702p to 1080i than the reverse. |
[04:00:14] | Der_Thomas: | like I said I'm new to this |
[04:00:15] | Wagner: | because everything overscans, and just about everything but the high end stuff does not allow you to disable overscan |
[04:00:28] | Wagner: | meaning nothing is running at native resolution, its all scaling from something to something else |
[04:01:29] | Der_Thomas: | interesting stuff |
[04:01:36] | Wagner: | if you get true 1080 content, it will look better on a 1080p tv, otherwise it doesnt matter |
[04:02:21] | Der_Thomas: | funny how a few tech savy people can have a conversation like this and not have all of the answers, funny how completely non-tech people walk blind into Best Buy every day and buy stuff... |
[04:02:31] | Lexridge: | in a sense. 1080i is exactly the same as 540p, at double the framerate |
[04:03:00] | Lexridge: | or field rate, to be exact |
[04:03:48] | Der_Thomas: | Lexridge, Not totally true, (I think) because the TV is progressive by nature, it has to put the frames of the interlased signal into a buffer and present them in a progressive frame anyway. |
[04:04:10] | Der_Thomas: | by the TV, I mean a lcd, plasma, etc not CRT of course |
[04:04:34] | Lexridge: | however, that is the thinking behind 720p is better to upconvert than downconverting 1080i, I "think". ;) |

[04:06:20] | Lexridge: | which is 240p.....ugh! |
[04:06:31] | Wagner: | 480i at HD resolutions doesnt look too great, 480p looks pretty good |
[04:06:45] | Der_Thomas: | well, yesh 240p but 240p120 |
[04:06:46] | Lexridge: | 480p does look good, as we see in most DVD releases. |
[04:07:09] | Der_Thomas: | hmm, never looked at 480p |
[04:07:31] | Lexridge: | any commercial DVD will play (with a progressive DVD player) at 480p |
[04:07:55] | Lexridge: | that would be 480p/24, right? |
[04:08:16] | Der_Thomas: | not sure, prob 480p60 |
[04:08:17] | Wagner: | correct |
[04:08:22] | Der_Thomas: | oh |
[04:08:28] | Wagner: | 480p24 |
[04:08:40] | Der_Thomas: | isn't native TV refresh rate 60hz? |
[04:08:49] | Wagner: | yes it is |
[04:09:18] | Der_Thomas: | does the DVD player play the 24Hz stream at 60Hz? |
[04:09:34] | Wagner: | depends on the output |
[04:09:41] | Wagner: | composite/svideo is 60hz |
[04:09:44] | Lexridge: | depends on the tv as well. |
[04:09:49] | Wagner: | component/hdmi... i dont know |
[04:09:59] | Der_Thomas: | ah OK I get it |
[04:10:10] | Lexridge: | component can operate at 24p, or 23.976 as the case may be |
[04:11:02] | Wagner: | i mean i dont know if the tv actually plays at 24fps, or resamples in some manner |
[04:11:07] | Lexridge: | I can not tell a difference between component and hdmi on either of my two HDTVs |
[04:11:22] | Lexridge: | with short cable runs, of course. :) |
[04:11:46] | Der_Thomas: | so I think I don't know what to buy, I was going to buy a 42" plasma TV that can play 720p60 thinking that it was Good Enough for the cash, but now I'm thinking that maybe i shold dish out for the 1080p tv |
[04:12:19] | Wagner: | how far away will you be sitting? |
[04:12:49] | Lexridge: | if you plan on a future blu-ray device, 1080p is the way to go. However, you may not notice the difference until you get into bigger monitors, such as 52+" |
[04:12:49] | Wagner: | and what is your vision? 20/20? better? worse? |
[04:13:36] | Der_Thomas: | small apartment, depending on where you are in the room 10 feet or so |
[04:14:07] | Der_Thomas: | vision prob less then 20/20 |
[04:14:29] | Wagner: | so better than 'perfect'? |
[04:14:31] | Der_Thomas: | can 720p TVs play blueray? Do they downscale their inputs? |
[04:14:40] | Lexridge: | IMO, 42" is too large for only 10' viewing distance. My 51" is 12", and that is too close....I'm gonna downsize it. |
[04:14:57] | Der_Thomas: | Wagner, guess I mean worse then 20/20, higher number |
[04:15:46] | Der_Thomas: | Lex, I read somewhere the about 3x the diag measurement of the TV is suposed to be rht "rule of thumb" |
[04:15:54] | Lexridge: | interesting |
[04:16:16] | Lexridge: | so I should be ideal at 12' |
[04:16:32] | Lexridge: | actually, 12.75' ;) |
[04:16:43] | Der_Thomas: | 42"x3 = 126" / 12 in/ft = 10ft for me |
[04:17:00] | Lexridge: | sounds good |
[04:17:15] | Chutt: | thx recommends a 36 degree viewing angle |
[04:17:46] | Wagner: | Der_Thomas: i have fairly exceptional vision, 20/13. 720p at 10' on a 26" is about my limit |
[04:18:01] | Wagner: | at that size and distance, i would see no difference between 720p and 1080p |

[04:18:59] | Wagner: | so scale that up to 42" and worse than 20/20, you may not see a difference between 720p and 1080p |
[04:19:15] | Chutt: | 10 feet would be a 90" screen |
[04:19:16] | Lexridge: | I have read on multiple occassions that 1080p is only apparently on monitors larger than 48" Maybe true, maybe not. I have no experience with 1080p |
[04:19:31] | Der_Thomas: | when you said 1080p if I wanted to buy a blueray in the future, does that mean that 720p will not downscale a blueray output? |

I have dual 7600gt (sli disabled) and running nvidia-settings I was able to get the tv-out working as a seperate screen on the same X session. this is fine except I don't want my mouse randomly straggling off onto my tv, alt-tabbing to mythtv, etc |
[04:36:12] | bsdfox: | I want to set it up as a seperate X session where I can still display all 3 at the same time. having a hell of a time figuring it out, http://rafb.net/p/LGbgCe90.html |
[04:37:20] | Gumby: | sphery: ok, I'll give that a go. But do you think that is the issue given that I cant access anything to do with mythmusic at all? Even the "Music Tools" in "Setup" |
[04:37:32] | Lexridge: | bsdfox: I've not been able to run three monitors, the second DVI always gets the same video as the TV out. |

[04:37:41] | aaronp: | bsdfox: If you configure them as separate X screens instead of TwinView, configure them for absolute positioning, and then position them so there's a gap between them, then the mouse will be confined to screen 0. |

[04:42:24] | Lexridge: | oh, I see...doh, I missed the fact you have TWO video cards. DOH! Sorry. |
[04:43:10] | Lexridge: | are both video cards nvidia? I have read that sometimes the drivers get confused when using multiple nvidia cards. |
[04:43:14] | Gumby: | sphery: is the backtrace I posted helpful at all? http://pastebin.ca/1280432 |
[04:43:25] | Gumby: | the log files dont say anything at all |
[04:43:28] | Wagner: | i dont know if its possible to put both setups in the same xorg.conf |
[04:44:04] | Wagner: | and you need to pull the mouse and keyboard out of one set, or else the whole thing will go to hell |
[04:44:21] | Lexridge: | yea, that is getting strange xorg.conf wise. |
[04:44:34] | sphery: | Gumby: would be more helpful if you installed the mythtv debug packages |
[04:45:01] | bsdfox: | Lexridge: yeah identical cards |
[04:45:10] | Wagner: | bsdfox: check out Http://linuxgazette.net/124/smith.html |
[04:45:21] | Wagner: | should explain everything you need to do |
[04:45:56] | Gumby: | sphery: is that different than confuguring with the --compile-type=debug option? |
[04:46:00] | Lexridge: | It says it requires multi keyboard and mouses. |
[04:47:11] | sphery: | Gumby: are you compiling or running packages (I though 0.21.0+fixes18722–0ubuntu1 meant a package)? The debug packages are the stuff you get with --compile-type=profile, but they strip out that debug stuff so it doesn't slow things down on a system that's not doing backtraces. |
[04:47:26] | sphery: | profile is like debug, but with optimizations enabled |

[04:47:57] | Gumby: | sphery: Ive grabbed ubuntu's mythtv source and created my own debs after running configure with --compile-type=debug |
[04:48:58] | Gumby: | so they are the same as ubuntu packages except they have the debug option enabled. I can recompile/rebuild with profile if that is what is necessary |
[04:49:25] | mzb_d800: | I've solved my problem above by hacking the db :| |
[04:49:37] | Gumby: | ubuntu doesnt have debug packages in its repo so I didnt use them |

[04:51:09] | sphery: | Gumby: debug would have worked, but the problem is when you build your debs, it's stripping the debug info, so you basically have unoptimized (=slow) code without debug symbols (i.e. the worst of all worlds ;). You'll either need to find someone who knows ubuntu/deb-building to help you or you'll need to switch back to packages |
[04:51:40] | sphery: | Gumby: and ubuntu /definitely/ has debug packages available for 0.21-fixes (though IIRC you have to enable some debug repo or something--talk to the #ubuntu-mythtv guys) |
[04:51:50] | mzb_d800: | $ dpkg-builpackage -us -uc ? |
[04:52:03] | Gumby: | mzb_d800: debuild -us -uc |
[04:52:07] | mzb_d800: | (after editing rules) |
[04:52:10] | Gumby: | yes |
[04:52:17] | Gumby: | exactly what I did |
[04:52:19] | mzb_d800: | yep, that's what I meant |
[04:52:33] | Gumby: | not sure how it strips out debug info after hardcoding it in the rules |
[04:52:39] | Gumby: | but I'll look into it |
[04:53:10] | Wagner: | seems someone in Malaysia was stabbed to death because he would not give up the karaoke mic |
[04:53:33] | Gumby: | it has to be either the patches I am using or v4l. I just installed the stock mythmusic and mythtv packages and they work fine :( |

[05:06:48] | iamlindoro: | android60, If you mean SD only, yes, that would be okay |
[05:07:03] | android60: | ya for now. whats recommended for hd? |
[05:07:12] | Wagner: | it also assumes you would want to share 1GB of memory with 5 other users running X servers |
[05:07:12] | android60: | minimum that is |
[05:07:42] | Wagner: | whatever the minimum hardware needed to get a pcie slot, and an nvidia 8-series |
[05:07:45] | bsdfox: | got it working Wagner, thanks |
[05:08:13] | iamlindoro: | android60, That's a wide open question and requires info about what codecs, bitrates, and signal sources you're using. For the moment, high clock Core 2 Duo or better. By next myth release, a midrange processor and nvidia 8xxx or better will work nicely. |
[05:08:13] | Wagner: | bsdfox: ok, your client crashed, so i didnt know if you had seen the link before that happened |
[05:08:54] | Wagner: | a 1.8 celeron will probably choke on ATSC broadcasts |
[05:09:05] | Wagner: | so dont expect to do HD on your current system |
[05:09:30] | android60: | with a geforce 8600, 2 gig ram, and a to be purchased hardware encoder capture card, still think core 2 duo good idea? |

[05:10:58] | iamlindoro: | I think Core 2 Duo is always a good idea, even with SD. Not strictly necessary, but you will *always* find a way to use more processor in a mythbox |
[05:12:29] | bsdfox: | I did SD ok with 3 tuners on a p2–450 backend |
[05:12:46] | iamlindoro: | bsdfox, he's not asking about just a backend |
[05:12:49] | Wagner: | did you do playback on that same processor? |
[05:13:01] | bsdfox: | hell no |
[05:13:19] | bsdfox: | got a couple c2d frontends, hopefully just eliminated one of them actually |
[05:14:44] | android60: | ok thanks for the info guys |
[05:15:00] | iamlindoro: | As an example, I've got a Core 2 Quad OC'ed to 3.6 Ghz... have two cores maxed out right now doing commflagging and another almost maxed with various other stuff-- there will *always* be a way to use more processor, IMO |
[05:15:32] | iamlindoro: | Not necessary, but a nice to have if you can afford the extra speed |
[05:19:07] | bsdfox: | Wagner: turns out X isn't capable of sharing keyboard or mouse when both X sessions are running on the same VT. ever heard of someone using an LIRC device as a CoreKeyboard in xorg.conf? |

[06:28:02] | Wagner: | HAH! wootoff |
[06:30:08] | HRearden: | OK. Building gentoo on a VIA EX 10000 fanless. Should finish by Friday :) |
[06:30:21] | Wagner: | should set up distcc |

[06:31:14] | HRearden: | I had a dream of fanless high-def. Now I'm hoping VDPAU can salvage it. |
[06:31:38] | Wagner: | i do hope there are some fans in the machine |
[06:32:12] | HRearden: | Probably a very quiet case fan. |
[06:33:08] | HRearden: | I've done a totally fanless lo-def VIA without even a case fan — used a notebook drive, all has been great. |
[06:33:45] | Wagner: | thats because the VIA system will probably consume <10W |
[06:34:01] | Wagner: | the fanless nvidia card will probably pull 30W on its own |
[06:34:28] | Wagner: | it runs while fanless... provided you have a sufficiently ventilated case |
[06:34:47] | HRearden: | right now the nvidia PCI card I bought has a fan. |
[06:35:18] | Wagner: | that wont cut it, you need to get the hot air out of the case |
[06:35:48] | HRearden: | I'll run the case fan on this one I think anyway, since it's got a 3.5" drive. |
[06:36:34] | Wagner: | yeah, that 3.5" will probably use another 10W |
[06:36:53] | HRearden: | and they get hot. |
[06:37:18] | Wagner: | only because they were not designed with good cooling |
[06:38:00] | Wagner: | you strap a nice fanless 1U heatsink to it, it may not even get warm to the touch |

[07:47:20] | justinh: | heheheh if a 1Ghz system can play HD with even HDPAU I'd be surprised. You need IO bandwidth too not just CPU cycles |
[07:47:57] | justinh: | not forgetting memory throughput... |
[07:48:08] | Wagner: | justinh: what for? AFAIK, youre just sending a demuxed, compressed stream straight through to the video card |
[07:48:16] | Wagner: | meaning no more than 5MB/s |
[07:48:26] | justinh: | yeah but those Via chipsets... you know what they're like :D |
[07:48:39] | Wagner: | im more concerned about the audio |
[07:49:01] | Wagner: | high bitrate bluray tends to have some high bitrate CPU intensive audio as well |
[07:49:10] | Wagner: | certainly nothing to a modern processor |

[07:49:36] | Wagner: | but those epia systems are about half as efficient per clock cycle arent they? |
[07:49:39] | Wagner: | maybe less |
[07:49:43] | justinh: | if you're lucky |

[07:50:17] | justinh: | save the planet or watch HD.. hmmm |
[07:50:26] | Wagner: | yeah, 20W on the P3 vs. 2W on the Via |
[07:51:11] | hads: | I don't really like the Via EPIA's but I'd say they could do it. |
[07:51:45] | justinh: | hey I didn't say they can't do it. I just said I'd be surprised if they could |
[07:51:59] | hads: | I didn't say you did say that. |
[07:52:06] | Wagner: | considering you actually have experience with those systems |
[07:52:14] | justinh: | knowing the problems playing SDTV they can have.. |
[07:52:14] | Wagner: | i would say you have a better idea of what they can handle than most |
[07:52:34] | hads: | They'd still be slow as doing everything. |
[07:52:56] | justinh: | their opengl will stuck suck ass :D |

[07:53:20] | hads: | heh, yeah |
[07:53:46] | hads: | Saying that mine never had any trouble playing SD |
[07:54:00] | Wagner: | ive been pleasantly surprised by my Geode board.... but then that doesnt even have a video out, so i dont know how it would handle graphics |
[07:54:02] | justinh: | hads: mine didn't, til it did :) |
[07:54:02] | hads: | From either ivtv or MPEG DVB |
[07:54:18] | justinh: | depended entirely on the stream content |
[07:54:18] | hads: | Ours was used for about a year with no problem |
[07:54:35] | justinh: | anything with mheg or AD streams in it just made the decoder puke |
[07:54:36] | hads: | Didn't like 720p though :) |
[07:54:58] | hads: | We have MHEG in our DVB and it played that fine. |
[07:55:27] | justinh: | it was perculiar to BBC channels only.. which was a pisser since almost everything *I* watch is from the BBC |
[07:56:00] | hads: | Yeah the MHEG profile here is slightly different to your stuff. |

[07:56:39] | justinh: | a/v offsets especially |
[07:56:56] | justinh: | lots of standalone STBs develop lipsync problems over time |
[07:57:14] | Wagner: | 'develop'? |
[07:57:41] | justinh: | people don't generally notice, but they obviously happen enough for the BBC to mention it in their FAQ |
[07:57:59] | justinh: | yeah leave the STB on a given channel for long enough... |
[07:58:16] | justinh: | the cure is to change channels or reboot the STB |
[07:58:26] | justinh: | icky! |
[07:59:06] | Wagner: | i thought there were supposed to be sync points places every few dozen frames |
[07:59:09] | justinh: | my Dad's had more freeview boxes than I've had hot dinners |
[07:59:56] | justinh: | Wagner: there are, but the audio & video can still end up offset by varying amounts in the decoder |

[08:00:37] | justinh: | according to the BBC tech my dad spoke to it's because of the way they optimise the video for transmission or something |
[08:00:48] | justinh: | anyway.. stuff happens |
[08:01:16] | Wagner: | well they way they optimize it is by adding a bunch of crap to make sure things stay synced |
[08:01:39] | justinh: | the audio has timing info in the packets, as does the video |
[08:01:51] | justinh: | so theoretically the decoder should be able to marry them |

[08:02:57] | justinh: | but timecode 12345 in the video isn't necessarily near timecode 12345 in the audio stream, and the amount of 'real' time between them can change. |
[08:03:28] | justinh: | it'll change depending on the other stuff they shove in the stream – which in theory shouldn't cause any problems |
[08:04:37] | justinh: | it might not actually work like that, but that's how it's been explained to me. bottom line is, even hardware has problems |
[08:05:37] | justinh: | I wouldn't care – I'd understand it if the A/V sync problems showed up in no-brand cheap-arse STBs, but this was on fancy Sony & Phillips boxes |
[08:06:52] | justinh: | now my dad uses a cheap & nasty £20 job from ASDA & it's never had the sync problem. trying to talk them into getting a PVR so I have an excuse to build them a myth box |

[09:16:52] | Lunar_Lamp: | I have a recording job set up to record any matches on a specific channel (in this case: all NFL games on channel5). This was in the scheduled jobs, but it did not record. Viewing the backend logs, it says: Canceled recording (Recorder Failed) NFL "Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Carolina Panthers": channel 20987 on cardid 5, sourceid 1. |
[09:17:15] | Lunar_Lamp: | Other jobs of a similar nature seem to have worked without issue (e.g. any Family Guy on BBC3). |
[09:17:22] | Lunar_Lamp: | How can I go about troubleshooting this? |
[09:19:08] | justinh: | I had a recording failure of the same nature the other day |
[09:19:43] | justinh: | only time I'd ever seen it until you posted that |
[09:19:46] | Lunar_Lamp: | This has happened on two consecutive nights with the same schedule – so i'm not sure if it is specific to this job. |
[09:19:54] | justinh: | I doubt it |
[09:20:23] | justinh: | I suspect it has more to do with the transitory behaviour of Freeview channels |
[09:20:33] | justinh: | freeview/freesat |
[09:20:55] | justinh: | possibly catching the channel when PIDs change or something of that ilk |
[09:21:50] | Lunar_Lamp: | 2008-12–08 01:15:03.222 Canceled recording (Recorder Failed): NFL "Washington Redskins @ Baltimore Ravens": channel 20987 on cardid 5, sourceid 1 |
[09:21:53] | Lunar_Lamp: | 2008-12–08 01:15:03.225 scheduler: Last message repeated 1 times: Scheduled items: Scheduled 28 items in 0.0 = 0.02 match + 0.02 place |
[09:21:57] | Lunar_Lamp: | 2008-12–08 01:15:03.228 scheduler: Canceled recording (Recorder Failed): NFL "Washington Redskins @ Baltimore Ravens": channel 20987 on cardid 5, sourceid 1 |
[09:21:58] | justinh: | hrm. then again,when Emmerdull failed to record on Sunday, that was a custom rule too |
[09:22:01] | Lunar_Lamp: | (the previous night's one) |
[09:22:14] | Lunar_Lamp: | (sorry, that was more spammy than I intended) |
[09:22:44] | justinh: | I set a custom rule up for %Emmderdale% to record at any time on ITV1 |
[09:23:51] | justinh: | there isn't much that can make the recorder fail |
[09:23:58] | Lunar_Lamp: | :-( |
[09:24:05] | justinh: | lack of a working card, signal problem.. |
[09:24:16] | justinh: | beyond those it's stuff to do with the streams themselves |
[09:24:37] | Lunar_Lamp: | Hmm, I'll try manually scheduling a recording for one of them, to remove that possibility. |
[09:25:02] | Lunar_Lamp: | (not going to be that same program for 6days though, so if it's a problem with the steam itself, that won't evidence until then) |
[09:25:04] | justinh: | like I said I'd never seen it in all this time until Sunday so I think it'd be a bitch to reproduce |

[09:25:44] | Lunar_Lamp: | Well, to be honest, I think I had the same issue, with totally different hardware and install about a year ago – but that box blew up and I've only just replaced it. |
[09:25:51] | justinh: | I make enough recordings every day that if it was something obvious like stream content changes it'd have shown up a lot more by now (though maybe not) |
[09:26:54] | justinh: | to get to the bottom of it you'd have to run mythbackend with some very verbose logging options indeed |
[09:27:11] | justinh: | -siparser at the very least.. and others I can't remember |
[09:27:40] | justinh: | hmm wait a sec |
[09:28:03] | justinh: | no, it's not that. my 1st tuner isn't set to be used on-demand] |
[09:28:29] | justinh: | wonder if it has anything to do with EIT scanning |
[09:28:30] | Lunar_Lamp: | I don't have huge issue with that, as I'd like to get this one solved (recording the late night NFL games was one of the major motivators for getting myth set up again) |
[09:28:47] | justinh: | are you using EIT at all? |
[09:28:53] | Lunar_Lamp: | justinh: it may well be, as I have EIT scanning – I haven't configured xmltv properly yet. |
[09:29:21] | justinh: | ahh. it might very well be a contention between EIT & the scheduler then |
[09:29:39] | justinh: | no way to know without looking at reams of log |
[09:32:03] | Lunar_Lamp: | So does that mean I should run mythbackend manually with as many log options as I can find? |
[09:32:15] | Lunar_Lamp: | I'm willing to do so to be honest, as i want this issue investigated :-) |
[09:33:18] | justinh: | -v siparser channel eit |
[09:33:19] | justinh: | I think |
[09:34:16] | justinh: | oops -v siparser,channel,eit |
[09:44:53] | Lunar_Lamp: | ok, cheers justinh :-) |
[09:45:03] | Lunar_Lamp: | I guess I'll just line up a load of recordings, and try and make it error out :-) |

[10:47:57] | Gumby: | pheld: dual core intel 2180 overclocked to 3.0ghz |

[10:54:36] | pheld: | it's limited by single-core performance. My E6600 (2.4GHz) needs overclocing to 3GHz to handle HD |
[10:55:22] | Gumby: | hehe, mythtv cant handle the video |
[10:55:55] | pheld: | except with HW-assist that drops to about 7% with the CPU @ 1.6GHz ;) |

[16:35:00] | moodboom: | gbee i have an nvidia card (not IGP), but i see flicker on my second monitor sometimes – i don't have a fix but a workaround for me is to reselect the refresh rate with nvidia-settings, it goes away until i reboot |
[16:35:16] | gbee: | Nvidia didn't even have a proper IGP to relatively recently – afaik the 8200 was the first |
[16:36:21] | gbee: | can't reselect the refresh rate, only one is supported at the screens native res so nvidia-settings doesn't even offer the choice |
[16:36:59] | moodboom: | gbee i dont think it even matters if i change settings, just hitting OK seems to fix it – weird, i know |

[16:42:10] | gbee: | iamlindoro_: seems so, at the very least I don't have an HDMI->DVI adapter to test |
[16:42:36] | iamlindoro_: | sphery: There are a couple of doozies on the -users list right now. Notice the DB corruption has been showing up more and more-- also there's the guy who applied the HD-PVR *patches* when they first came out and forgot about it, and is confused and thinks there's a bug in trunk |
[16:43:19] | gbee: | this flickering renders the second screen useless :/ |
[16:43:28] | iamlindoro_: | sphery: I'm torn between mentioning that there is (IIRC) a commit message mentioning that you needed to remove and re-add the card once the HD-PVR recording profiles were added, or wait until he files a bug so that it can be closed invalid ;) |
[16:44:07] | iamlindoro_: | gbee: And I assume you're stuck at the native res only too? curious if it's any different at other res |
[16:44:37] | sphery: | yeah, I saw that one and was 99.9999% positive he was completely wrong on it, but couldn't explain why he was wrong, so I figured I'd leave it to someone more knowledgeable. |
[16:44:37] | iamlindoro_: | sphery: http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/changeset/18089 |
[16:45:01] | gbee: | I can try a lower res |
[16:46:14] | iamlindoro_: | sphery: A great argument for "why are you using trunk if you are not following commits?" |
[16:46:52] | sphery: | Is the DB corruption one the one I've been replying to? If so, it's a valid issue that I'm going to try to work out. It seems that DISTINCT and indices treat duplicates differently (i.e. if we have garbage characters in a column, the index only uses the data until the first garbage character, whereas DISTINCT looks at all--even garbage and what follows--characters) |
[16:47:18] | sphery: | you're not using 180.11 for VDPAU, are you? |

[17:36:47] | dustybin: | is a 8 series nvidia GPU more powerful than a Intel C2D 2.5 CPU when it comes to decoding and encoding? |
[17:37:26] | iamlindoro_: | That question doesn't make any sense |
[17:38:16] | dustybin: | iamlindoro_: imagine i want to rip a movie with handbrake, i use VDPAU for one movie, and the CPU for the same movie, what would work fastest? |
[17:38:17] | iamlindoro_: | decoding what? encoding what? At what bitrates? For playback or for other purposes? And encoding *only* if you have written a CUDA encoder... which I doubt you have. |
[17:38:40] | dustybin: | iamlindoro_: a dvd, x264, 1800 bitrate |
[17:38:54] | iamlindoro_: | dustybin: See above, unless you have written a CUDA encoder, then the question is irrelevant |
[17:39:20] | iamlindoro_: | and that encoder would need to be a direct port of a software encoder otherwise quality will differ too |
[17:39:21] | aaronp: | dustybin: VDPAU is the Video DECODE and Presentation API for UNIX. |
[17:39:30] | dustybin: | hmm ok, was just trying to compare a CPU with VDPAU |
[17:39:41] | dustybin: | ok |
[17:39:47] | aaronp: | You want to compare the CPU with a CUDA-based encoder such as http://techreport.com/discussions.x/15763 |
[17:40:01] | dustybin: | eek ok |
[17:40:05] | iamlindoro_: | dustybin: So compare decode. And yes, in general VDPAU will decode more efficiently than a CPU of that speed |
[17:40:19] | dustybin: | nice |
[17:40:23] | iamlindoro_: | dustybin: And even with those CUDA encoders, they will *not* produce output as nice as a software encoder currently. |
[17:40:43] | dustybin: | but that will soon change! |
[17:40:55] | iamlindoro_: | Why? Are you porting x264 to CUDA? |
[17:41:08] | dustybin: | yep, i been busy all morning :-S |
[17:41:18] | iamlindoro_: | I'm sure |
[17:41:31] | RDV_Linux: | iamlindoro: Are you using the 180.11 driver on an everyday machine now? I have been holding off as my only nVidia card is on my main frontend/backend machine. I am using mythtv trunk due to my HD-PVR. |
[17:41:34] | dustybin: | I'll just carry on being a shmuck :P |
[17:43:14] | iamlindoro_: | RDV_Linux: Yes, my frontends are all using 180.11, but not always using VDPAU. When I left for the weekend, I swapped back to xv for my housesitter, VDPAU works great but isn't always predictable |
[17:44:04] | RDV_Linux: | Thanks just the kind of measured information I was looking for. |
[17:44:39] | iamlindoro_: | RDV_Linux: It's getting there, it'll just take a bit of time-- fun to play with but you probably want to be present to switch renderers if anyone else is using it |
[17:44:56] | RDV_Linux: | I will probable try it when I have worked out how to safely revert back to my current setup. |
[17:45:22] | iamlindoro_: | RDV_Linux: It's really just a matter of playback profiles, you can swap between xv-blit and VDPAU without much trouble |
[17:45:55] | RDV_Linux: | I will follow that advise. Thanks |
[17:47:25] | iamlindoro_: | np |
[17:47:49] | sphery: | heh... Transcoding 1080p video to iPhone. Why would someone who has a 1080p video decide, "Rather than watch this in my 60" HDTV, I'll watch it at low-res/low-bitrate on my 2.5" iPhone screen"? |

[18:56:10] | dustybin: | if i use multi rec on 2x tuners, 3x encoders on each tuner, and i'm watching TV, if my sister starts to watch TV downstairs, MythTV doesnt seem to use the other spare tuner, instead it uses the same tuner, but is restricted to channels what are on the same mux, if i dont use multi-rec, i dont have this problem |
[18:57:18] | iamlindoro_: | see sphery's complaint from an hour or two ago about people not paying attention |
[18:57:28] | iamlindoro_: | actually almost EXACTLY an hour ago |
[18:57:37] | sphery: | dustybin: map a key to NEXTCARD and you can switch one of the LiveTV instances to use a different card so you can watch a channel on a different mux |
[18:58:22] | dustybin: | sphery: i know you can manually swap the tuner, but would be nice if mythtv automatically used the spare tuner, when multi-rec is used |
[18:58:32] | sphery: | And, if you'd like to do me a very big favor (so I don't have to look at the code), try disabling Avoid conflicts between LiveTV and recordings and see if it chooses input 1 and then input 2 (both on the same card) for the 1st 2 LiveTV instances |

[19:04:49] | dustybin: | Encoder 5 is local on private and is watching Live TV: 'Emmerdale' on ITV1. This recording will end at 7:30 PM. |
[19:04:56] | dustybin: | that is all whats happening at the moment |
[19:05:08] | dustybin: | how can i tell what tuner the encoder is using ? |
[19:05:19] | sphery: | is that her LiveTV session from before switching the avoid conflicts setting? |
[19:05:23] | dustybin: | yes |
[19:05:59] | sphery: | which specific virtual tuner is used is not really important, just whether it's using the same or different cards |
[19:06:16] | dustybin: | yep |
[19:06:19] | sphery: | but, until you restart both livetv sessions with the avoid conflicts setting disabled, you won't know |
[19:07:25] | dustybin: | ill need to change her frontend settings too |
[19:08:15] | sphery: | actually, that's a global setting, so only need to change it once |
[19:08:19] | dustybin: | shit i have some recordings at 9:00pm, she might get stuck in the same mux |
[19:08:25] | sphery: | just need to restart livetv |

[19:52:12] | Dagmar: | ...which is just sad. |
[19:52:28] | sphery: | meshe: Yes, they can both watch the same recording at the same time; however, only one of them can watch LiveTV at a time, though. However, since LiveTV is just a recording, the other can watch the LiveTV recording through the Watch Recordings screen. When the program changes, though, the one watching the LiveTV as a recording will have to find the next LiveTV recording and start watching it as a recording. |
[19:53:18] | meshe: | thanks sphery, that was the answer i found, it was just a couple years old |

[19:55:03] | iamlindoro_: | clever: No. |

[19:55:25] | iamlindoro_: | meshe: DOWNLOAD, not rip |
[19:55:30] | iamlindoro_: | and no, you cannot download it. |
[19:55:37] | iamlindoro_: | You can likely rip it if you want. |
[19:55:40] | meshe: | our fair use rights have not been totally eroded yet |

[19:59:10] | Dagmar: | Dimwit |
[19:59:10] | meshe: | quote: The ruling stipulates that: Downloading a song for personal use is not an infringement. Placing a song in an on-line music-sharing directory such as Kazaa is not considered distribution. |
[19:59:43] | meshe: | until C-61 goes through, our rights in regards to media is very, very loose |
[19:59:46] | sphery: | so, you |
[19:59:52] | kormoc: | gbee, yeah, I always forget to sync up my ignore lists |
[19:59:53] | sphery: | Canadians don't have to pay for music? |
[20:00:08] | meshe: | legally, no |
[20:00:09] | kormoc: | sphery, the deal is they pay a tax on blank media |
[20:00:18] | meshe: | kormoc: exactly |
[20:01:07] | meshe: | the music industry forced us to play a levy on blank media that is supposed to compensate the artists for our piracy, then they also wanted to sue us for piracy |
[20:01:19] | meshe: | the courts thankfully said, you can't have your cake and eat it too |
[20:01:46] | GreyFoxx: | So every single CDROM gets taxed, despite the majority being for computer data usage |
[20:02:12] | meshe: | no |
[20:02:19] | meshe: | you can buy for business purposes |
[20:02:37] | GreyFoxx: | Yeah if I wanna submit my receipt and get my mony back |
[20:02:41] | MartinCleaver (MartinCleaver!n=martincl@74.210.19.132) has quit () | |
[20:02:53] | GreyFoxx: | but none of the local stores allow me to avoid the tax at time of purchase |
[20:03:09] | kormoc: | meshe, well, the reason why there's no real exceptions for video is the Canadian MPAA doesn't get a cut of that tax I believe |
[20:03:57] | meshe: | correct, what i just read the copyright act was updated specifically to make downloading "music" legal |
[20:04:19] | sphery: | Granted, the text of the ruling is not presented, but in "In a unanimous 9–0 decision on June 30, 2004" and "The court said" paragraphs, the positions do /not/ support the summary, "The ruling stipulates that". So, I'm guessing they must have left out the discussion of those points of the ruling or some hack was trying to push his own interpretation to rationalize his illegal downloading. :) |
[20:04:45] | meshe: | better article, with quotes from the actually modification of the law: http://www.canadianlawsite.ca/intellectual.htm |
[20:06:20] | sphery: | Do you all pay a blanket levy on hard drives? |
[20:06:38] | meshe: | no, just cds and audio cassettes |
[20:06:56] | meshe: | they tried to do it with dvd's and ipods, but it got turned down |
[20:07:46] | sphery: | discussion of recording sound to a hard drive is interesting... |
[20:08:13] | meshe: | http://neil.eton.ca/copylevy.shtml |
[20:10:16] | meshe: | ok, so, no it's not legal to download movies/tv shows, but I think it's legal grey area with fair use if you download a rip that is of the same or worse quality of the one that you personally own. |
[20:11:02] | meshe: | you are allowed to transcode media that you own, so downloading an already transcoded version of what you already own would just be having someone else do the transcoding |
[20:12:07] | kormoc: | Everyone, please remember to seek out professional legal advice |
[20:12:12] | meshe: | agreed |
[20:12:59] | kormoc: | and with that! Let's get back on topic |
[20:13:10] | kormoc: | So about that myth tv thing I there then heard about? |
[20:13:21] | gbee: | kormoc: stay on topic |
[20:13:31] | gbee: | oh wait |

[20:14:45] | meshe: | anyone ever done a frontend over an internet link rather than internal network? |
[20:14:57] | clever: | meshe: ive done it before from a hotel |
[20:15:25] | clever: | but my upload pipe is too small, so i spent 12 hours to move a 1 hour recording to local storage |
[20:15:34] | meshe: | hehe |
[20:15:43] | meshe: | i've got a 10Mb uplink |
[20:15:47] | dec_ (dec_!n=tom@unaffiliated/dec) has joined #mythtv-users | |
[20:16:00] | meshe: | it would be the other downlink i would have to worry about |
[20:16:05] | sphery: | and people like clever are the reason that I can't get any work done at a hotel through an SSH link to my systems at home (i.e. because they're hogging all the bandwidth, so I can't use the few kbps I need). |
[20:16:09] | sphery: | :) |
[20:16:18] | kormoc: | It's so true |
[20:16:22] | clever: | sphery: i cant even get ssh to work right now:P |
[20:16:35] | clever: | lost packets cause the vpn to choke and ssh to freeze up for 2–3mins |
[20:17:05] | meshe: | sphery: the worst i do at hotels is voip |
[20:17:12] | gbee: | assuming you can get around the security aspects say using ssh/vpn, I'd worry about latency |
[20:17:25] | clever: | sphery: also, when i was pulling those files, the hotel downpipe was 150kbyte/sec, and i was only pulling 20–30kbyte/sec |
[20:17:33] | clever: | sphery: i wasnt even using near 50% of the downpipe |
[20:17:37] | sphery: | yeah, even 10Mbps is not that great when HDTV can be up to 19Mbps |
[20:17:38] | kormoc: | UPnP broadcast to 255.255.255.255! |
[20:18:06] | sphery: | clever: that's because there were 6 other people doing the same :) |
[20:18:09] | meshe: | is there a way to set how much the frontend buffers before it starts playing? You could avoid latency that way |
[20:18:31] | sphery: | nope |
[20:18:40] | clever: | meshe: id have to buffer 900mb before starting playback:P |
[20:18:46] | clever: | which would take 9+ hours to prebuffer |
[20:18:52] | sphery: | not designed for wide-area distribution (No, I'm not trying to restart the other topic) |
[20:18:54] | clever: | imposible to use levels |
[20:19:26] | sphery: | really, though, you're better off copying data to a local hard drive and carrying it with you. |
[20:19:38] | clever: | sneaker net! |
[20:19:41] | sphery: | and, really, if just for travel, you don't even need Myth. |
[20:19:56] | meshe: | i actually asked that question for another reason too, i was getting buffer pause errors and skips on my frontend the other day |
[20:20:08] | clever: | ive thought about how i would put a computer in the car, and sync it with the recordings at home when parked in the driveway |
[20:20:17] | meshe: | well, i have 2 backends in 2 different countries now |
[20:20:19] | sphery: | Yeah, my pickup truck and commercial airlines have /significantly/ more bandwidth than I could ever afford from my cable co. |
[20:20:20] | clever: | pull the recordings off the wifi when at home |
[20:21:02] | sphery: | meshe: have you looked through: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Prebuffering_pause |
[20:21:42] | meshe: | yeah, the load on the machine is 2+ when it starts skipping |
[20:22:15] | meshe: | last night when it happened a program called "mtd" was taking up 80% of the RAM |
[20:22:29] | sphery: | myth transcoding daemon, used for ripping DVD's |
[20:22:47] | sphery: | probably was swapping due to lack of memory due to mtd |
[20:22:48] | meshe: | yeah, and i've never put a dvd in the drive |
[20:22:59] | sphery: | then don't run mtd :) |
[20:23:03] | gbee: | well that's not good |
[20:23:12] | sphery: | (though it shouldn't cause issues--I run it without problems on my 0.21-fixes systems) |
[20:23:16] | meshe: | i've never told it to run mtd |

[20:27:58] | meshe: | gbee: maybe i'll write a cron that just kills mtd when it sees it running |
[20:28:16] | GreyFoxx: | hah, no AC3 decoding. You have to pass through to an external decoder :) |
[20:28:24] | GreyFoxx: | Then that's no use to him |
[20:28:37] | iamlindoro_: | Ooof, that sucks, that's a *major* drawback |
[20:28:37] | gbee: | Anduin: I remember the commit message now |
[20:28:40] | GreyFoxx: | all the recordings from, his firewire stb have ac3 audio |
[20:28:42] | GreyFoxx: | yeah |
[20:29:01] | GreyFoxx: | he has a reciever but I don't know if it does ac3 decoding or not |
[20:29:46] | gbee: | from a UI point of view, having it start automatically was better than requiring the user to 'press 1–9 to start MTD' |
[20:30:02] | meshe: | agreed |
[20:30:13] | gbee: | it should probably shut down automatically after a period of inactivity though |
[20:30:34] | iamlindoro_: | MTD has been maxing out a core since my last rebuild, need to track that down at some point, just have been lazy |
[20:30:46] | iamlindoro_: | and kill it once a reboot instead |
[20:30:59] | meshe: | i don't want to remove MythDVD either as I want the dvd functionally, just not the ripping |
[20:31:03] | meshe: | (on that box) |
[20:31:30] | gbee: | iamlindoro_: you've been ripping or it starts for no apparent reason? |
[20:31:50] | RyeBrye: | oh, I thought that starting MTD by typing a key was some kind of funky workaround to say you didn't ship with DVD ripping enabled or some strange legal thing |
[20:32:11] | gbee: | I liked the idea of splitting out the DVD playback parts of mythvideo and putting them into the frontend |
[20:32:28] | iamlindoro_: | gbee: Well, haven't been in the DVD screens for some time and I don't have it starting in my init script-- can't say the starting up is a bug, but the maxing out a core is |
[20:32:35] | gbee: | RyeBrye: nah, just a bad UI decision AFAIK |
[20:32:42] | RyeBrye: | ok |
[20:33:13] | RyeBrye: | yeah, I guess I gave the devs too much credit :) I assumed "nah, nobody would make the UI like this unless there was some odd reason to do so" :) |
[20:33:28] | meshe: | ripping isn't really enabled until you install decss |
[20:33:30] | GreyFoxx: | hrm, the popcorn hour doesn't specifically mention Ac3 at all |

[21:25:02] | sphery: | you can use MythVideo for that (MythVideo, like all plugins) is a frontend component, so you'll need to make the videos available on all frontends |

[21:25:38] | byteframe: | sphery, I'm currently using geexbox. Very fast, no xserver which I like. But it's quite limited. |

[21:26:25] | hads: | Not really. |
[21:26:27] | iamlindoro_: | You can run a frontend without a backend. You *do* need a DB though |
[21:26:29] | sphery: | not really--the frontend will complain about the backend being missing |
[21:26:32] | byteframe: | I see. |
[21:26:48] | byteframe: | Mythtv probably isn't what I'm looking for, I'm getting good vibes from the XBMC site. |
[21:26:52] | byteframe: | Thanks. |
[21:26:55] | sphery: | but, you can run a backend without any capture cards so you don't get constant popups about the backend being missing |

[21:49:30] | kormoc: | as I know I'm going to be introducing bugs... |
[21:49:46] | iamlindoro_: | I'm always happy to learn, might just need some coaching to provide worthwhile results |
[21:49:52] | meshe: | memcached is simple to set up |
[21:49:57] | kormoc: | it's braindead simple :) |
[21:50:18] | meshe: | how much ram do you have yours configured for kormoc? |

[21:51:02] | sege_ is now known as sege | |

[21:54:35] | kormoc: | and there's options for auto zlib compression as well, so can even hold more data that way |
[21:55:11] | kormoc: | and with the __sleep and __wakeup, it can disconnect/reconnect up connections and other cleanup tasks |

[21:56:19] | meshe: | though my paranoid nature would still run the serialized data through at least a checksum if not full validation |
[21:57:06] | kormoc: | the 'recommended' caching style will be what I call 'StaticMemcache', which is using two cacheing styles together. php style 'static $CACHE[$key]' and memcache |
[21:57:45] | kormoc: | Request will try to pull from php's static, if it fails, it pulls from memcache, and caches it statically. On set, it updates the static and on destruct, it flushes the statics to memcache |

[22:01:04] | kormoc: | iamlindoro_, when we try the new code, first thing to do if you find a bug that might be related to caching is to restart memcache. It wipes it's cache on restarts, so then if it works, then it's likely a caching issue, if it doesn't, then it's likely a code issue :) |

[22:37:01] | meshe: | it would only be recommended to put memcache on 127.0.0.1 in a single server implementation |
[22:37:38] | meshe: | the real power of memcache comes from multiple memcache servers in which memcached would need to be bound to network accessable IPs |
[22:39:08] | meshe: | but that's not really applicable with MythWeb |
[22:39:22] | kormoc: | Aye |
[22:39:41] | Dagmar: | If you're doing it with myth boxes, you probably should consider going outside once in awhile. |
[22:39:47] | Dagmar: | ;) |
[22:39:49] | meshe: | hehe |
[22:40:07] | iamlindoro_: | Indeed those in here likely to cluster it w/ mythweb are those that are outside-proof |
[22:40:37] | ** kormoc quickly turns off memcache on his desktop ** | |

[22:40:46] | kormoc: | Indeed! Only local machine usage here! :P |
[22:40:49] | iamlindoro_: | haha |
[22:41:31] | kormoc: | half the beauty of memcache clusters is machines can pop in and drop out whenever and not really matter |
[22:41:46] | kormoc: | so having my mostly idle desktop take a chunk of ram while it's sitting there doesn't bother me |
[22:41:54] | kormoc: | but that's a entirely unsupported mythweb setup :P |
[22:41:54] | meshe: | errrrrr |
[22:42:07] | meshe: | actually the cache gets corrupted when a server drops out |
[22:42:13] | iamlindoro_: | kormoc: You're not the crowd I had in mind when I said that ;) |
[22:42:36] | kormoc: | meshe, not at all, the php memcache module marks it as failed and continues on with the good servers |
[22:42:52] | hads: | Yeah, not corrupted, just missing bits. |
[22:42:57] | kormoc: | meshe, it's a distributed cache, not a concatenated cache |
[22:42:58] | Dagmar: | So it detects Gentoo servers, and routes around them. |
[22:43:06] | meshe: | ahh, a new implementation since I last looked, nice |
[22:43:19] | meshe: | no, the original implementation the cache was toast if you lost a server |
[22:43:31] | meshe: | (this was about a year ago) |
[22:43:37] | hads: | The application should be designed to expect things to be missing. |
[22:43:42] | kormoc: | nah, that was purely just one of the many php modules for it |
[22:43:52] | ** meshe doesn't code in php :) ** | |

[23:19:19] | sphery: | dustybin: (assuming that your dual tuner Nova-T 500 actually has 2 tuners configured in Myth, and can, therefore, be used to tune 2 different muxes at the same time), I would recommend using http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/264034#264034 to delete all capture cards (don't worry about sources), then create 2 capture cards do /not/ enable multirec, then go back and enable multirec on the 1st then the 2nd card. ... |
[23:19:25] | sphery: | ... I'm guessing that will give you 2 inputs--one for each card--as 1 and 2, then virtual inputs for the multirec thing. So, first LiveTV gets card 1, 2nd gets card 2, then it would be 1, 1, 2, 2, (assuming you enable 3 recordings per card) |
[23:19:54] | sphery: | dustybin: note that if you do that you /cannot/ use "Avoid conflicts" as it will start from the back (meaning you'd get 2, 2, 1, 1, 2, 1) |
[23:20:04] | justinh: | so you need a $60 card to play a batman film? heheheh |
[23:20:31] | dustybin: | sphery: aye ok ill give it a go :) |

[23:45:08] | clever: | meshe: you can then compare the dates that it gives to what ls gives, to see what ls is showing |
[23:45:18] | Dagmar: | fuxxy: They're mtimes. |
[23:45:22] | sphery: | dustybin: sounds like you've got it set up, now you can check how LiveTV x 2 works |
[23:45:28] | kormoc: | x times? |
[23:45:32] | meshe: | why are you telling me this clever? |
[23:45:37] | dustybin: | sphery: ok |
[23:45:43] | Dagmar: | If your dates aren't changing, your backup dumps aren't happening |
[23:45:47] | clever: | meshe: just bored |
[23:45:50] | kormoc: | meshe, he's sad and lonely and wants to impress you in hopes you'll be his friend |
[23:46:20] | meshe: | awwww, i've been doing linux admin for 9 years now :) |
[23:46:25] | sphery: | fuxxy: for a "quick look", use: grep "INSERT INTO \`housekeeping\` " mythtv_backup.sql |
[23:46:29] | Dagmar: | What a newb |
[23:46:34] | meshe: | lol |
[23:46:50] | ** meshe bows her head in shame ** | |
[23:47:23] | Dagmar: | Only nine years... do you even know how to format a disk yet? |
[23:47:23] | dustybin: | sphery: that worked!!!! i tuned in sisters frontend first, it used tuner 1, i turned on live tv in my bedroom, it used tuner 2 !! |
[23:47:24] | kormoc: | meshe, oh noes! you just got the undivided attention of 185 female interaction starved irc folks! |
[23:47:43] | meshe: | Dagmar: boot dos |
[23:48:27] | meshe: | kormoc: that's ok, i'm married (even though it doesn't seem to matter to some online geeks) |
[23:48:36] | sphery: | dustybin: it's amazing how well Myth works when you configure it to behave as you want it to... Thanks for trying it and confirming it works. Now I don't have to mess up my perfectly configured system to try it out before I click send on that e-mail I wrote this morning after complaining about the people complaining on that ticket. :) |
[23:48:44] | meshe: | been around IRC long enough to know how to ignore HNG's |
[23:49:10] | Dagmar: | horny nerd guys? |
[23:49:16] | Dagmar: | I'm guessing blind on the middle word |
[23:49:21] | meshe: | Horny Net Geeks |
[23:49:25] | iamlindoro__: | haha |
[23:49:28] | Dagmar: | Oh |
[23:49:48] | Dagmar: | Danke |
[23:49:57] | meshe: | :) |
[23:49:57] | Dagmar: | ...and before you get any ideas... |
[23:50:00] | Dagmar: | <-- not a girl. |

[23:50:24] | fuxxy: | Dagmar, I guess you're right, I only had a week's worth of backups and apparently it stopped backing up the database |
[23:50:28] | fuxxy: | grrr |
[23:50:38] | meshe: | not suprise, i don't find many in software related chat |
[23:50:38] | fuxxy: | which freaking defeats the purpose of daily backups. |
[23:50:49] | dustybin: | sphery: what would happen if i'm watching live tv and something wants to record, will mythtv use the spare tuner even with that option ticked off? |
[23:50:58] | Dagmar: | Well, people see the name "Dagmar" and assume I must be a) German and b) Female |
[23:51:11] | Dagmar: | ...not realizing that sometimes 'nyms are made up of random syllables. |
[23:51:41] | sphery: | Dagmar: isn't there a guy in some comic named Dagmar? |
[23:51:54] | Dagmar: | Yeah, in User Friendly I *think* |
[23:51:56] | meshe: | i'm not familiar with the reference to your nick, so I assumed nothing |
[23:52:00] | sphery: | fuxxy: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Database_Backup_and_Restore |
[23:52:15] | Dagmar: | Pretty sure I've been using the 'nym longer than any webcomic |
[23:52:23] | Dagmar: | ...or since before webcomics were invented. |
[23:52:32] | fuxxy: | sphery, problem's already been fixed, but thanks ayway. I still wish I had the data from two days ago, rather than dec. 4th. |
[23:52:46] | sphery: | Dagmar: I was thinking one of the Sunday paper comics had one... I remember him trying to squeeze the last of the toothpaste out of the tube once... |
[23:52:57] | Dagmar: | No idea there, mon |
[23:53:09] | fuxxy: | Dagmar, I think of Dagwood when I see your nick. |
[23:53:20] | sphery: | that's who I'm thinking of... |
[23:53:23] | Dagmar: | That's probably what sphery is thinking of actually |
[23:54:32] | Spyro1 (Spyro1!n=ian@benden.mnementh.co.uk) has joined #mythtv-users | |
[23:55:04] | Spyro1: | hi |
[23:55:11] | Spyro1: | Im trying to set uup a myth box |
[23:55:18] | Spyro1: | but the channel scan button is greyed out |
[23:55:21] | sphery: | had I remembered the whole sandwich part, I'm sure you would have known which character I meant. :) |
[23:55:56] | abqjp (abqjp!n=john@nat3.blueskytours.com) has quit (Remote closed the connection) | |
[23:55:59] | sphery: | Spyro1: 1) are you using a digital capture card (if not, you may not want to use channel scan) and 2) have you already created a capture card(s)? |
[23:56:08] | Spyro1: | DVB-T |
[23:56:19] | Spyro1: | and I already added the card |
[23:56:37] | meshe: | i had that problem with mine, the card wasn't properly associated to... something |
[23:56:45] | meshe: | sorry, not fresh in my head |
[23:56:49] | sphery: | OK, so you do need to do a channel scan... Have you already created a video source? Have you connected the video source to the appropriate input on the card? |
[23:57:12] | sphery: | meshe: probably the input connection (which is a great guess about why it's not allowing a scan :) |
[23:57:25] | Spyro1: | no, didnt think I needed to (unobvious) |
[23:57:27] | fuxxy: | Let's say I want to flush out stale files on my recordings partition (files without corresponding mysql metadata) How would one go about this? |
[23:57:50] | Dagmar: | Just delete them through the frontend interface |
[23:58:14] | sphery: | myth_find_orphans.pl was written (a /very/ long time ago) for that purpose, though it's not well maintained and you shouldn't blame me if it deletes every single recording you have |
[23:58:14] | fuxxy: | Dagmar, but I don't know which actual files are stale? |
[23:58:18] | Dagmar: | You should never wind up with files without db entires. |
[23:58:41] | fuxxy: | Dagmar, agreed, that's preferred, but sometimes the proverbial "stuff" happens. |
[23:59:00] | Dagmar: | If anything, you'll be more likely to get warnings from the thing about files which were already deleted but for which the metadata is still lurking around making it think it still needs to delete them because expiry is a little obsessive compulsive |
[23:59:13] | fuxxy: | My frontend/backend machine magically reset for some-odd reason and the mysql db was corrupted, I had to backup from 4 days previously. |
[23:59:14] | sphery: | sometimes you'll get .old files (from mythtranscode) or png's that don't get deleted properly (though I think we've fixed the PNG problems in core Myth) |
[23:59:57] | Dagmar: | You could always run a lossless transcode on them *all* and then delete any files without a recent timestamp |
