[00:00:12] iamlindoro: (and a fairly nice way of scheduling/checking/watching recordings from work, with a little effort)
[00:01:16] nsx: ah, right
[00:01:33] nsx: so it's a replacement for mythfrontend?
[00:01:44] iamlindoro: no, it's a complement to mythfrontend
[00:02:00] nsx: all right, I'll give it a try
[00:02:48] iamlindoro: Mythweb allows remote download of your media, scheduling, and very very experimental streaming of recordings, among a few other things-- it doesn't attempt to recreate an entire frontend, but allows for basic administration and tasks to be done remotely

[00:23:06] nsx: I'm still looking for a convenient way to play optical discs with video files on them...
[00:25:24] iamlindoro: Set mythvideo to file browse mode, and symlink the optical disk mount dir in your MythVideo store somewhere
[00:25:50] iamlindoro: Then when an optical disk with files on it is mounted, you simply open MythVideo, navigate to that spote, and play them
[00:26:21] iamlindoro: s/spote/spot/

[00:29:13] nsx: and do what? use automount?
[00:29:27] nsx: or as I recall, can't mythtv be set to mount the disc?
[00:29:37] nsx: it's been years since I've set one of these up
[00:29:56] iamlindoro: Yes, set up however your distro prefers to have optical disks automount
[00:30:16] nsx: debian doesn't seem to prefer it
[00:30:32] iamlindoro: Well there is certainly some distro-approved way of doing it
[00:31:05] iamlindoro: so do that, have it mount to /media/cdrom or whatever, and symlink /media/cdrom to /videos/CD or wherever
[00:31:36] iamlindoro: Then set MythVideo to file browse mode and you can always enter the CD directory and see whatever files are mounted at that moment
[00:48:29] nsx: I'm wondering if it would be worth it to use something like knopmyth or whatever
[00:48:53] nsx: I like having a highly customized system, but you are right about the debian multimedia archives..
[00:48:57] nsx: tons of things seem to be broken

[00:49:32] iamlindoro: Mythbuntu is kept most up to date of the specific distros, but any of them can work
[00:49:39] nsx: weather doesn't work, most internet streams don't work, the imdb meta data thing doesn't work
[00:49:56] iamlindoro: Well, IMDB is going to be broken no mater what you use
[00:50:02] iamlindoro: IMDB has shut us out, so it's being replaced
[00:50:14] RyeBrye: IMDB. :(
[00:50:40] nsx: thing is, I'm setting this particular PVR up for someone who's not tech savvy, and won't have any idea how to keep it up-to-date
[00:50:43] iamlindoro: in trunk it's replaced with the themoviedb.com grabber, which works fairly okay
[00:50:50] nsx: I haven't built a mythtv box for myself yet

[04:26:59] iamlindoro: Casting info only, no plot information will be divulged :)
[04:27:14] iamlindoro: Especially as I still have a fair few shows to catch up on myself
[04:27:37] iamlindoro: Watched seven episodes of Heroes today, began to feel like a job
[04:28:12] iamlindoro: Also mounted a dish, crawled around in the crawlspace, peaked the dish, ran errands, and replaced the kitchen sink. All in all I'd say I had a very accomplished day :)

[04:29:48] wagnerrp: actually, it seems the heroes page doesnt have him listed, but his page lists heroes
[04:35:16] iamlindoro: My HOA agreement states that I have to get approval to put a dish out on the deck-- I am half-hoping they'll complain that I didn't so I can throw the FCC regs at them :)
[04:36:02] J-e-f-f-A: iamlindoro: Were you able to hit 129?
[04:37:24] iamlindoro: J-e-f-f-A, I just don't know-- I asked for a (used) dish receiver for Christmas to aid in aiming/peaking, so I hope to find out next week-- Based on some of the aiming I did today I think 119/129/148 may be possible
[04:37:32] iamlindoro: if so I'll likely switch
[04:37:56] iamlindoro: I think 129 and 148 minimally should be fine
[04:38:37] J-e-f-f-A: iamlindoro: Ah.  ;-) That's where an FTA receiver comes in handy – even if you can't tune the encrypted stuff, it identifies the sat. ;-)
[04:38:58] iamlindoro: Learned some interesting things about aiming offset dishes, though. Was very concerned about the tree outside my deck, but based on reading about properly tracing the rays on offset dishes it looks like I shouldn't have much to worry about, the angle of attack to the dish is *much* higher than I thought
[04:39:53] iamlindoro: Interesting trick, you can put your eye right below the bottom of the dish and peer over the top of the LNB and that's the actual angle-- and upon looking at that, I clear the tree by a good few feet
[04:40:13] iamlindoro: whereas the dish itself actually looks like it's aiming smack dab at the tree
[04:40:29] J-e-f-f-A: Yeah, you're in the west coast, so it's probably similar to me hitting the 61.5 sat – it's 40 degrees up... 110/119 are like 20/28 degrees for me.
[04:41:14] iamlindoro: J-e-f-f-A, Yep, my Elevation to 129/148 is 17 degrees
[04:41:15] iamlindoro: er 47
[04:41:22] iamlindoro: so *really* high
[04:41:30] iamlindoro: great for clearing the tree
[04:41:40] J-e-f-f-A: iamlindoro: Humm... probably depends on the dish design, but yeah, that might work. Unlike an old-school C-band dish, where the LNB is in the center, dish is offset by like 20–30 degrees...
[04:41:47] iamlindoro: 22
[04:41:50] iamlindoro: 22 degree offset
[04:42:01] J-e-f-f-A: there ya go. ;-)
[04:42:25] iamlindoro: J-e-f-f-A, Per the dishpointer setup (got the dishpointer guy to add a 129/148 setting for me) and following those specs exactly, I think I'm in the clear for those two
[04:42:34] iamlindoro: will futz with 119 later
[04:43:11] J-e-f-f-A: Yeah, usually you tune the middle one, then tilt it to get the other two to get max signal.
[04:43:40] J-e-f-f-A: (you know, fine-tune the skew after you peak the middle LNB)
[04:43:48] iamlindoro: I this case I'm going to start with a 2 LNB (Dish 500) although I've got a 1000.2 if 119 is possible
[04:44:11] iamlindoro: The only one that's straight up through a building is 110, but oh well, that's all SD crap anyway
[04:45:13] J-e-f-f-A: iamlindoro: Humm.. didn't realize 110 was only SD... My sat receivers user 110/119 and 61.5, but are currently SD.
[04:45:34] J-e-f-f-A: 'use' even... ;-)

[04:45:40] iamlindoro: J-e-f-f-A, regardless, my plan will have to be a la carte because of my limited view
[04:46:10] iamlindoro: Will likely buy their HD package if 129 is totally clear, even if that means I am eligible for 119 and can't get it
[04:46:40] iamlindoro: But at least they let you a) own and set up your own equipment and b) are reasonable with the a la carte stuff
[04:46:43] J-e-f-f-A: You have a clear shot at 110 but not 119? Humm...
[04:46:58] iamlindoro: no, best case I will have 119/129/148
[04:47:01] iamlindoro: 110 is out
[04:47:12] iamlindoro: with near certainty I have 129/148
[04:47:18] iamlindoro: 119 is iffy, 110 is not a chance
[04:47:49] J-e-f-f-A: iamlindoro: and last time I knew, dish doesn't do al la carte packages – with the possible exception of international stuff... so You'll end up paying for a 'top 250' package and not getting all the channels if they can't come in from 129/148 instead.
[04:48:22] iamlindoro: J-e-f-f-A, There's also some other stuff going on now-- 129 is moving to 149 when the new 129 arrives in correct orbit in a few days
[04:48:32] iamlindoro: So will need to see how the transponder layouts shake out
[04:48:40] iamlindoro: But they do have a la carte
[04:49:23] J-e-f-f-A: iamlindoro: ^ Really? Wow – either it's new, or I was lied to like 8 years ago when I first got dish...
[04:49:23] iamlindoro: Buy the most basic plan, then add the Turbo HD package and any sports packages on top of that
[04:49:31] iamlindoro: Well, they might not have 8 years ago
[04:50:00] iamlindoro: Can also do the "turboHD" alone
[04:50:13] iamlindoro: anyway, we'll see
[04:50:32] J-e-f-f-A: iamlindoro: Oh, ok... for the HD and Sports stuff... but not like you can just have TLC and Animal Planet in addition to the lowest plan... ;-)
[04:50:45] iamlindoro: Right, not per-channel a la carte
[04:50:56] iamlindoro: but in fairly bite-sized packages I can live with
[04:51:39] iamlindoro: Depending on what's possible I might look into the r5000 stuff too
[04:52:29] iamlindoro: Anyway, it's fun to have a project to mess with over the break
[04:53:12] J-e-f-f-A: The r5000 – you talking about the firewire addon?
[04:54:36] iamlindoro: usb
[04:54:39] iamlindoro: but yeah
[04:55:12] J-e-f-f-A: iamlindoro: Oh... usb? neat, I thought it was firewire.  ;-) cool.
[04:55:28] iamlindoro: yeah, with myth patches, but not sure of their current apply-ability
[04:56:02] iamlindoro: Big issue if I did that then becomes the inability to losslessly cut commercials
[04:56:26] J-e-f-f-A: yuck.
[04:56:54] jackson__: wow those are spendy

[04:57:08] iamlindoro: jackson__, Yeah, would likely go the self-install route
[04:58:37] iamlindoro: I do have an idea for a mythcommflag patch that might make *very* basic lossless cutting possible without needing to resort to external programs
[04:58:49] iamlindoro: at least, becont dd and cat
[04:58:53] iamlindoro: beyond

[05:01:27] iamlindoro: jpabq, Do you feel confident that we're now marking I frames correctly with the new h264parser?
[05:01:33] J-e-f-f-A: iamlindoro: Well, does h.264 have the same basic structure as mpeg2, ie – index frames, etc?

[05:01:53] iamlindoro: J-e-f-f-A, similar, yes. It's also generally transmitted in TSes, too
[05:02:15] iamlindoro: J-e-f-f-A, My idea is more or less that GOP-level editing should be pretty easy to add to mythtranscode
[05:02:32] iamlindoro: I won't even think about adding frame-level, that's too much work for me

[05:03:13] J-e-f-f-A: iamlindoro: Yeah, that's what I was thinking of... I had an mpeg2 editor a few years ago that was uber-fast because it made cuts on gop frames only... but not frame accurate. ;-)
[05:03:15] iamlindoro: But as we write our seektables by file offset, so long as the new h.264 parser is accurate, GOP-level should be as simple as seek to nearest keyframe and copy
[05:04:26] iamlindoro: anyway, if I can manage that, then using my HD-PVR (and possibly R5000) would start looking a lot more attractive

[05:09:50] jpabq: iamlindoro, The fact that you can "edit" a recording, and skip forward/backward to the next keyframe, and it is not macro-blocked tells me that it is doing it right.
[05:10:25] iamlindoro: jpabq, sounds good
[05:10:33] jpabq: I know that the I frames are being detected correctly. If anything is going wrong, it is figuring out what offset we are at when the I frame is detected.
[05:11:13] iamlindoro: jpabq, I figure even with slightly broken offsets the worst you'd see at a cutpoint with just a straight copy would be two corrupt GOPs
[05:13:13] iamlindoro: *seems* it should be as simple as querying what the offset is for x frame or nearest GOP, creating a list of ranges, and concatenating results
[05:14:27] jpabq: The problem with recording the offsets, is the buffering in memory as we are recording. The offset has to be what has been written to disk, plus what hasn't made it there yet.
[05:14:31] iamlindoro: Then rebuilding the seektable at the end of the "transcode" ought to fix seeking (although that would require someone fixing seektable rebuild for h.264)
[05:15:24] jpabq: There was a patch to "fix" that, but it was against fixes. Does not apply to trunk. I tweaked it to apply to trunk, but there is something wrong with it.
[05:15:38] iamlindoro: jpabq, Maybe I'll take a stab at in in the next few weeks-- if nothing else it would make a decent diagnostic tool for checking our h.264 parsing

[05:15:53] iamlindoro: one o' them "mutually beneficial" dealie
[05:15:54] iamlindoro: s
[05:18:48] jpabq: It does seem to help with commflagging, though. Without that patch applied, I get something like "first frame is not a keyframe", when commflagging starts up. Don't get that with my version of that patch. However, my version of the patch does *not* fix rebuilding the seektable via commflag. Pretty sure it is because TRUNK is doing MARK_GOP_BYFRAME, which was not the case in fixes.
[05:19:35] jpabq: Just haven't taken the time to work on it further.
[05:20:32] iamlindoro: No worries, I think I can bang at this a bit without needing the results to necessarily be accurate-- functional would be enough to start
[05:21:20] iamlindoro: In fact, the content of mpeg2fix.cpp should more or less do exactly what I'm talking about
[05:21:40] iamlindoro: just disable the glue transcodes for h.264 and seek to nearest keyframe
[05:21:55] jpabq: iamlindoro: http://rafb.net/p/ZKbMS240.html
[05:21:57] iamlindoro: would be wiser just to patch that than to try to reinvent the wheel, it seems
[05:23:20] jpabq: With that patch, if you look at the seektable after trying to rebuild using mythcommflag, instead of MARK being something like "1, 32, 64", it is "1, 2, 3, 4".
[05:24:32] jpabq: I think it is the right thing to do, just incomplete.
[05:24:49] iamlindoro: I see
[05:28:49] iamlindoro: Hmmm, actually, mepg2fix isn't the right way to handle h.264
[05:29:03] iamlindoro: not that it couldn't be adapted, it's just a lot of work
[05:29:30] iamlindoro: easier just to write a basic h.264 cutter that does it based on file offset and elave the mpeg-2 stuff aside
[05:31:22] jpabq: I get to spend tomorrow swapping parts between three different computers. I am still trying to keep an old nForce 4 motherboard in service even though it has given me more grief than any other motherboard I have ever owned.

[05:34:57] jpabq: That GIGABYTE GA-EP45-DQ6 system I build has been one of the most trouble-free (hardware wise) that I have ever used. One of those cases, where it was well worth the money!
[05:35:35] iamlindoro: jpabq, Yes, I've been very happy too-- still need to sit down and get the r8168/8169 bits working
[05:35:51] iamlindoro: Last time I tried with the realtek driver it didn't work, period
[05:36:04] iamlindoro: Have read some recently that that might all be fixed up now
[05:36:05] jpabq: I forgot about it's NIC issues. I threw a intel PCIe NIC in there and have not looked back.
[05:36:21] iamlindoro: jpabq, Did same, but would like to reclaim the slot if it's now possible
[05:36:57] jpabq: Is there a new BIOS?
[05:37:09] iamlindoro: I updated to the latest a month or two ago, was f11
[05:37:20] jpabq: I have been waiting for a new BIOS for that 9400 board. I would like to be able to run the memory at CAS4.
[05:37:44] iamlindoro: There is an f13a now
[05:38:19] iamlindoro: Hmm, actually, have f12 on my board and f13 is a beta

[05:47:46] jpabq: I guess I should work on the Myth code for the HD-PVR such that it *always* gets the bitrate right. Unfortunately that requires a 3 second delay when tuning. I was hoping janneg could do some magic in the driver to cut that time down, but it does not look like he is going to be able to do that anytime soon.
[05:49:03] iamlindoro: That will only irritate LveTV users... which we are not

[18:58:22] mkrufky: GlemSom: wierd...
[18:58:26] sid3windr: somehow if hardware is delivered it has a UK or a US plug included ;)
[18:58:33] sid3windr: so I have a whole box of rather useless huge plugs ;)
[19:00:22] gbee: UK plugs are designed around safety, three pin earthed design with integral fuse and cable at 90 degrees to the pin to help prevent it being pulled lose from the socket
[19:01:52] janneg: GlemSom: that's not browser related, check in the frontend
[19:02:19] fuxxy: how do I find out what /dev node my USB device is using when I plug it in?

[19:02:44] janneg: mkrufky: reload would be enough, the info is only refreshed after the backend has rescheduled
[19:02:58] sid3windr: gbee: yeah, but seriously huge ;)
[19:03:13] ** sid3windr thinks the swiss ones are nice and small **

[20:45:31] sphery: decomp: reconfiguring should work, though you may need to do a "make distclean" first. Probably (more likely), the problem is that your firewire libs are not installed the expected location (or at all)

[20:58:40] sphery: bthornton: sounds like either you're connecting to the local MySQL (i.e. you didn't run mythtv-setup on the system where you're running mfdb) or you have different versions of MythTV installed on the different systems

[21:03:24] decomp: some of the configuration settings are set to 'no' such as several opengl options. I assume i should get those working. I have an nvidia 8600 card.
[21:03:52] sphery: decomp: can only get them working if you have the NVIDIA proprietary drivers (properly installed and functional)
[21:04:00] iamlindoro: decomp, If you don't know what a config option does, don't enable it for nothing-- in fact, you will break things badly if you enable all settings
[21:04:06] sphery: decomp: though things like VLD and OpenGL Video should /not/ be enabled
[21:04:38] decomp: iamlindoro: makes sense.
[21:04:44] sphery: decomp: and configure will enable the /right/ ones for you if you have the right things installed/configured correctly :)
[21:05:13] decomp: yeah i just noticed that. If the dev libs are configured it picks up the options (like firewire).
[21:05:30] sphery: generally, ./configure --enable-proc-opt is a good way to go
[21:05:38] dustybin: i think ive found a bug in mythtv, with my particular tuner setup, every now and again, if someone is watching live TV already, and i switch on live TV, mythtv complains 'you should have gotten a channel lock....' etc
[21:05:40] decomp: cool thanks
[21:05:49] sphery: and ./configure --disable-<anything> is almost always bad
[21:05:54] iamlindoro: Think these days (trunk-specific options omitted) I use --enable-opengl-video --enable-opengl-vsync --enable-firewire --enable fftw3 --enable-libfaad --enable-proc-opt

[22:14:53] ajhtiredwolf: iamlindoro it is on a 32 inch screen so maybe it is just too big for the level of quality?

[22:18:22] iamlindoro: You don't want that, that uses your niec hardware encoder as a framegrabber, yuck
[22:19:42] ajhtiredwolf: Yeah.. but honestly it looked allot better under v4l when I was usiong a saa7134, vs this pvr-150 on mpeg-2 econder

[22:34:12] sphery: iamlindoro: LM gave away the answer :(
[22:34:26] iamlindoro: sphery, yep
[22:34:30] sphery: (the one you referred the user running trunk to the -dev list for)
[22:34:47] iamlindoro: Well why read all those silly e-mails when you can just get someone to distill them for you, after all?
[22:35:37] sphery: ajhtiredwolf: if the saa7134 looked better and you weren't applying /significant/ amounts of post-processing/filters, then you don't have the PVR-150 bitrate set properly for the resolution you've chosen.
[22:36:16] ** iamlindoro notes the "Yeah! Me too!" action on the -dev list **
[22:36:38] ajhtiredwolf: sphery the resoltuion is 720x480 do yoyu know what the bitrate should be for that?
[22:37:05] iamlindoro: Depends on what size you want per hour. 6–8 Mbit is where you perceptually can't tell any more at that res/codec
[22:37:14] iamlindoro: which is to say 6000–8000ish
[22:37:31] iamlindoro: might try 8000 and a peak of 10000 or so
[22:37:39] ajhtiredwolf: il give that a try
[22:39:32] sphery: Generally, 4500/6000 isn't bad for real-time encoded MPEG-2 @ 720x480. Below that, you'll definitely see quality issues.
[22:40:22] sphery: If you prefer quality over quantity, though, go with 6000/8000 or 8000/10000 (though I'd actually do 7500/9800 so it's possible to burn to DVD without re-encoding).
[22:40:30] ajhtiredwolf: looks better, still fairly pixelated but i think that is just the way analog is
[22:40:42] sphery: what source?
[22:41:19] sphery: also, it takes the PVR-x50's some time to "warm up"--generally, they do poor encoding until the first black frame (generally at the first commercial/show boundary)
[22:41:43] sphery: at least in the US, we have a nice black frame or 2
[22:41:44] ajhtiredwolf: cable
[22:42:11] ajhtiredwolf: 'you know one thing ive noticed in linux is that the colors dont look quite as good in video
[22:42:19] sphery: analog cable, not digital cable/STB->PVR-x50
[22:42:51] sphery: if so, then you'll likely have some quality issues just from that--i.e. the digital encoding tends to bring out some of the noise.
[22:43:20] ajhtiredwolf: digital tuners pretty pricey?
[22:43:34] sphery: With the PVR-x50's, you can't do filtering on recording, but you can on playback, so if interested, see http://mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-10.html#ss10.4
[22:43:40] iamlindoro: Can be very cheap-- $40 for something halfway decent
[22:43:49] gbee: cheaper than a PVR-150 (simpler bit of kit)
[22:43:57] sphery: you can probably get an Avermedia A180 (ATSC digital capture card) for $80 not on sale and $50 on sale.
[22:44:02] ajhtiredwolf: cool beans, have any that yyou would recommend?
[22:44:04] iamlindoro: Keeping in mind that with a digital tuner you will *only* get the few digital channels that are left unencrypted
[22:44:21] iamlindoro: meaning NBC, ABC, CBS, Fox, and a few local channels
[22:44:24] ajhtiredwolf: hmm well that is no fun
[22:44:35] ajhtiredwolf: and that goes for both cable and satelite?
[22:44:38] sphery: yep, IMHO, if going digital, you should consider going to antenna--i.e. you'll likely only get the same channels through cable that you would get with an antenna, so why pay the cable co
[22:44:49] sphery: yep, cable and satellite both encrypt
[22:44:54] iamlindoro: That goes for cable-- in the US, pay satellite cannot be captured digitally
[22:45:01] iamlindoro: so you'd be back to analog capture for that
[22:45:21] ajhtiredwolf: i suppose they do that so you have to pay for "their" dvr
[22:45:36] sphery: to get more--reliably--you'd need the high-def version of the PVR-x50's--the HD-PVR, but it's not really supported by a released version of Myth and work is still being done on the drivers, so now's not the best time
[22:45:38] iamlindoro: They do it so they control what you do with the content
[22:45:45] iamlindoro: Even if their DVR was free they'd still do it
[22:46:03] sphery: with the HD-PVR, you'd take component input and it would encode it (to MPEG-4 AVC/H.264)
[22:46:22] sphery: when 0.22 is released, that will be a much more usable solution
[22:46:25] iamlindoro: I heard some sexy beast mounted his HD-PVR in his case
[22:46:41] iamlindoro: I also heard he was going to build custom PCI backplates for it
[22:46:48] ajhtiredwolf: well I guess that i will just stick to analog
[22:46:51] J-e-f-f-A: iamlindoro: I also heard the guy created a wiki page about it...
[22:46:57] iamlindoro: J-e-f-f-A, Yeah, I heard that too
[22:46:58] sphery: iamlindoro: how's the heat on it when in the case?
[22:47:20] iamlindoro: sphery, It came out of an enclosed case with no fan, into one with two fans blowing over it-- cooler than ever
[22:47:24] sid3windr: the heat is on!
[22:47:31] sphery: nice
[22:47:41] sphery: and it will keep your CPU/GPU warm for you, right?
[22:48:00] iamlindoro: Heh, GPU certainly anyway (9300)
[22:48:26] sphery: yeah, but more from the decoding than from the heat generated while recording
[22:48:32] iamlindoro: That's what I meant

[22:50:53] iamlindoro: bye!

[22:51:09] ajhtiredwolf: iamlindoro on the pvr-150 there there are rca ports, i was going to use them for audio, those ARE for ouput not input right?
[22:51:23] iamlindoro: ajhtiredwolf, the PVR-150 is all inputs, not an output on the card
[22:51:47] ajhtiredwolf: iamlindoro crud so you need a seperate graphics card for audio?
[22:51:52] iamlindoro: Uhhhh
[22:51:57] sphery: iamlindoro: It's been in the 80's (F) today, here... Currently 76 F. Beach volleyball was great, today.
[22:52:01] iamlindoro: no, I mean you nead a seperate sound card for audio
[22:52:13] iamlindoro: Your graphics card won't (usually) do audio either :)
[22:52:17] ajhtiredwolf: iamlindoro haha i meant sound card :P
[22:52:35] iamlindoro: Yes, your capture card is for capturing
[22:52:37] iamlindoro: whodathunk
[22:52:44] eyp810: hehe im using SPDIF so if some u guys new enything it could be nice
[22:52:53] ajhtiredwolf: bleh, the saa7134 had output for audio :p
[22:52:56] ajhtiredwolf: i figured this one would too
[22:52:59] sphery: ajhtiredwolf: but the PVR-150 will capture sound (just not play it)
[22:53:09] iamlindoro: Your framegrabber's audio output was *not* for feeding a receiver
[22:53:17] sphery: ajhtiredwolf: wasn't that just pass-through audio on the saa7134?
[22:53:26] ajhtiredwolf: yeah
[22:53:27] iamlindoro: exactly
[22:53:37] sphery: not too useful for recorded :)
[22:53:45] ajhtiredwolf: *shrug* works fine*
[22:53:55] ajhtiredwolf: I have it plugged into the input of my sound card
[22:53:56] sid3windr: nantrly
[22:54:16] sid3windr: yes, because otherwise you wouldn't hear any sound
[22:54:27] sphery: nand-turally
[22:54:31] iamlindoro: ajhtiredwolf, Right-- plugged into the *input* of your sound card-- ie those audio outs on ancient cards were for shunting to the audio card for capture-- they sucked.
[22:54:48] iamlindoro: the PVR-150 captures it all without needing a sound card input
[22:54:53] ajhtiredwolf: yeah... but who can complain at 15$
[22:54:53] ajhtiredwolf: heh
[22:55:22] sphery: what's a PVR-150 going for on ebay these days? $20-$30? If so, I'd complain at $15.  :)

[23:00:44] iamlindoro: ajhtiredwolf, If 90% of your watching is on network TV, as it is for many people, then it's less of an issue
[23:00:59] sphery: I'm the opposite. If I can't get a high-def version of a channel, it's not worth watching.  :)
