[00:25:59] Der_Thomas: Hi everyone, I just updated the OS on my FE and now the tuner in the FE does not show up.
[00:26:11] Der_Thomas: I've installed it correctly and it works outside of myth
[00:26:39] Der_Thomas: I've run mythtv-setup and added the tuner, source channels etc
[00:27:09] Der_Thomas: however there is no option to change tuners in the OSD when watching live TV
[00:27:29] Der_Thomas: anyone around that can help me troubleshoot this?

[00:28:19] iamlindoro: Well, the most obvious question/comment is that frontends don't get tuners... so for it to show up, you'll need a backend running on that frontend system
[00:28:32] iamlindoro: in essence, to make it a slave backend
[00:28:35] Der_Thomas: my card is Pinnacle PCTV HD Card (800i)
[00:28:52] Der_Thomas: yes, it is also running mythbackend itslef
[00:29:12] iamlindoro: what do the backend logs on that system say when you start it?
[00:29:27] iamlindoro: Check them, and check that is says "starting as a slave backend"
[00:29:38] Simplelemming (Simplelemming!n=user@user-11fb147.dsl.mindspring.com) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:30:20] Der_Thomas: yes it does:

[00:30:27] Der_Thomas: form log
[00:30:30] Der_Thomas: from
[00:30:48] iamlindoro: and since setting up that card, have you restarted the master backend?
[00:31:43] Der_Thomas: yes
[00:31:47] Der_Thomas: several times
[00:32:28] iamlindoro: Then you will need to pastebin your backend logs from both backends
[00:32:55] Der_Thomas: I just restarted the slave BE: http://pastebin.com/m67bc728f

[00:33:59] iamlindoro: "Using localhost value of mythfe"
[00:34:10] iamlindoro: your slave backend doesn't have a real IP set
[00:34:14] iamlindoro: in mythtv-setup
[00:34:16] jroysdon is now known as jroysdon-ox
[00:34:24] jroysdon2 is now known as jroysdon
[00:34:29] iamlindoro: looks like it's probably set to localhost or 127.0.0.1
[00:35:04] Der_Thomas: here is output from restarting my MBE: http://pastebin.com/m685d6c5d
[00:35:18] Der_Thomas: I'll check the IP, but pretty sure I changed it
[00:36:11] Der_Thomas: yeah just ran mythtv-setup and it is set to 192.168.1.101
[00:36:13] iamlindoro: All values on *all* hosts, including all mysql.txt and config.xml files for all relevant users, need to be real IP addresses if you want two backends to work together
[00:37:22] Der_Thomas: does it matter if 192.168.1.101 (my SBE/FE machine) is a dynamic IP set by my router DHCP? I have no other devices so it will be sudo static
[00:38:14] jroysdon: So long as it doesn't change, but if there are no other devices, then just leave it set to locahost, no?
[00:38:32] iamlindoro: jroysdon, There are two backends. By definition there are other devices.
[00:38:43] jroysdon: Right, so he made a false statement ;-p
[00:38:49] jroysdon: Better to set a dhcp reservation in your server/router or set the IP statically
[00:38:59] iamlindoro: The other device is a static IP
[00:39:05] Der_Thomas: sorry that was probably confusing, my MBE has a static IP set so I ment there are no other dynamic IP devices
[00:40:04] jroysdon: ah, sorry, coming into the conversation after not seeing all of it. It will work, but I would not do it, as the chances of you never connecting anything else to the network is rare, and it'll be in that blue moon time that someone else will get a lease and things will break.
[00:40:27] jroysdon: (It shouldn't, and the BE should keep the IP lease always, but I've seen strange things with dhcp)
[00:40:39] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, http://rafb.net/p/FwcleX48.html
[00:40:49] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, Keep seeing this occasionally, not sure why that happens
[00:41:16] Der_Thomas: yeah, I will make the SBE have a static IP, just haven't gotten around to it yet. The dynamic was the default
[00:41:37] jroysdon: give it a static outside of the dhcp server scope range too
[00:42:10] Der_Thomas: right, of course
[00:42:38] Der_Thomas: but for this purpose you don't think that the dynamic IP is the cause of my tuner not showing up?
[00:42:49] jroysdon: no
[00:43:01] jroysdon: It has no idea that it is static/dynamic
[00:43:14] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, never mind, looks like I left a copy of your old script in my SVN code, got an old copy
[00:44:14] Der_Thomas: right, OK that is what I thought. Any ideas as to why I can't get this tuner to show up?
[00:44:43] Der_Thomas: I get my tuner from my MBE to work no problem, but not the one in my SBE
[00:45:13] jroysdon: Sorry, I haven't done any work with more than one BE just yet

[01:30:02] thread: can anyone take a stab at what might cause this error?
[01:30:08] RDV_Linux: iamlindoro: If any obviously wrong "series not found" messages occur they are almost certainly the one known caching bug that still exists. At least yours was an old code issue. As far as the redirects are concerned I sure hope that something can be done in Mythvideo as I hate overriding the regular URL.

[01:31:10] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, you may want to resync with my code later tonight-- adding banner download for TV, and changing the naming scheme for TV to "$title Season $season#.jpg"
[01:31:24] iamlindoro: the downloader naming scheme, that is
[01:31:39] iamlindoro: that way when mythvideo downloads a file, it will automatically be named properly for use in Watch Recordings

[01:37:54] RDV_Linux: Also not every series has season specific posters and banners so I look for the season level graphics first and fallback to the top rated series graphics if the season one was not found.
[01:38:16] porcodildo (porcodildo!n=wefw@151.64.200.212) has quit (Remote closed the connection)
[01:38:50] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, There's no support for anything in the mythvideo downloader for anything but the inetref right now (the TVDB or TMDB series ID)
[01:38:58] iamlindoro: and that number is useless to the Watch Recordings Screen
[01:39:04] iamlindoro: and to humanity at large, for that matter
[01:39:30] iamlindoro: The watch recordings screen needs an image named for the show, or the show + eason/episode information to find it
[01:39:54] iamlindoro: this modification makes MythVideo download images to a filename that makes much more sense, and is pre-configured to work with the Watch Recording screen
[01:40:00] J-e-f-f-A: But... but... I want to watch "1239926"... ;-)
[01:40:47] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, you can go on using your code in the way you have, I'm not touching your script, only changing the filename pattern MythVideo uses

[01:41:13] RDV_Linux: Oh well. I was creating a renamer script as I now have a mixture of IMDB numbers and series id numbers for my TV shows already. Part of bleeding edge I guess.
[01:41:38] Mr_Grieves||: Hrm, on the latest svn I'm getting errors about not having lame installed. I have libmp3lame in /usr/lib...what else would it be looking for?
[01:41:53] Lexridge: try lame-devel
[01:42:07] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, Movies should stay their inetref (well technically I think they should be named similarly but that's legacy code) but I don't see any reason the TTVDB downloads should be named anything besides what they are
[01:42:56] Lexridge: Mr_Grieves: When a compile complains something is missing, 99% of the time it means you do not have the devel pkg installed.
[01:43:00] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, and allowing the user to specify how they're named would only give the user the capacity to break their compatibility with the Watch Recordings screen, which was my who reason for changing it in the first place
[01:43:04] iamlindoro: er whole

[01:45:04] Mr_Grieves||: Lexridge: D'oh — I'm still getting used to the concept of devel packages, I just switched from gentoo to ubuntu. No need to worry about devel there :)
[01:46:29] Lexridge: I need help too :( After installing F8, I can no longer play back my pre-recorded HD content. It freezes, while audio still plays, but skips as well. I have the latest stable nvidia drivers (180.29) installed as well, from nvidia's site...
[01:46:40] RDV_Linux: In my meta data maintenance script I referred to earlier today, I allow for a user specified file name format in a configuration file that allows any pattern that contains series name, season and episode numbers, episode name and series id, So in the end I am OK without ever is chosen.

[01:47:24] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, that's fine, but it's outside of the Myth*video* download behavior
[01:47:32] iamlindoro: you can go on using your script and naming things what you like
[01:47:53] RDV_Linux: OK
[01:48:02] Lexridge: plus it is using 100% of the CPU (both cores) while attempting to playback. I had this problem before (under FC6), but cannot remember what I did to fix it.
[01:48:25] iamlindoro: If I get some extra time I'll look at making it user-formattable, but that will require changes to the Watch Recordings screen, and it's already tough enough to get a commit without having to track down two people to do it
[01:50:50] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, well, I've got the banner downloader working, but the host not found bit continues to irritate me/render the script screwy
[01:51:08] iamlindoro: (and prevent download altogether)
[01:53:18] sphery: huh... In -fixes if you change the poster for MythVideo (same filename), it doesn't show the change until you restart the frontend (re-creating image cache, perhaps)
[01:53:20] RDV_Linux: When I started downloading graphics from thetvdb.com I followed the naming convention used for movies in mythvideo which was imdb numbers. Series name are better in the long run.
[01:53:54] RDV_Linux: Does the download issue come and go in conjunction with how slow the site is?
[01:54:05] Mr_Grieves||: Hrm, no lame-devel in kubuntu — only lame.
[01:54:05] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, as near as I can tell, the .nyud.net stuff decides to resolve... eventually
[01:54:23] iamlindoro: apt-cache search liblame |grep dev
[01:55:01] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, It's actually nice to go back and re-download some stuff as the user ratings are worth having (I had everything else set)
[01:55:19] Mr_Grieves||: iamlindoro: returns a prompt
[01:56:07] iamlindoro: apt-cache search lame |grep dev
[01:56:54] ** Mr_Grieves|| slinks away **
[01:57:04] Mr_Grieves||: Don't know how I missed that. Thanks :)
[01:57:18] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, can you please return "Runtime:" in the script? That's a pretty important one IMO
[01:57:34] RDV_Linux: I wonder if there is a closer mirror to you I suspect the "nyud" maybe a NewYork mirror. With my old script _v0.8.0 you may be able to find out if you get a different mirror site by trying it in mythvideo then reading the text jpg file it downloads.
[01:57:39] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, where runtime = length, of course
[01:59:16] iamlindoro: Otherwise you end up with nice metadata that tells you an episode is 0 minutes long :)
[01:59:51] RDV_Linux: Let me check a few thing on run time, right now I am returning all available tvdb,com meta data. May be the key has a different name then what myth expects.
[02:00:11] iamlindoro: nothing I can see in the returned values that resembles runtime
[02:00:23] iamlindoro: it would shock me to learn they don't keep that info
[02:00:33] iamlindoro: well, I guess nothing should shock me

[02:01:38] iamlindoro: I guess people are eager enough for .22 that they intend to put out their own
[02:02:53] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, sure enough, it appears there's no field for length on their site-- now *that's* just plain silly

[02:05:20] RDV_Linux: There is a generic series run time (e.g. Fringe 60 minutes) but not episode specific. Surely you do not want the generic run time. I will do if I can access it and you want it.
[02:05:41] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, well if that's the best it can do it should return that
[02:05:53] iamlindoro: I prefer close info over no info
[02:06:19] iamlindoro: also, as a suggestion, you might consider allowing a --lang option for the grabber that will prefer the -D information in another language if avaialble, then fall back to english
[02:06:27] iamlindoro: Lots and *lots* of non-english speaking myth users out there
[02:06:39] iamlindoro: ie --lang=de will prefer german, etc.
[02:07:31] RDV_Linux: Maybe I could get the runtime from the video file and add it in. That may be beyond my skills but I could give it a try. Would you want that if I could do it?
[02:07:53] iamlindoro: The grabber shouldn't directly access the video file *at all*
[02:08:22] iamlindoro: As we are moving towards functionality where the grabber and file may well be on entirely different filesystems with nothing but the myth protocol to stream them
[02:08:34] iamlindoro: Don't worry about it if you can't get it
[02:08:35] Lexridge: Ah, fixed my HD playback problem Apparently I forgot to enable OpenGL within Mythfrontend. Doh! Works very well now.
[02:08:38] iamlindoro: it's not a big deal
[02:08:51] RDV_Linux: Ok back to plan A – the generic series runtime. I need to do some digging before I can commit to that option.
[02:08:54] iamlindoro: Worst comes to worst when gbee finishes his preview generation code I can use that to get length
[02:09:06] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, if it's possible, it's possible, no need for miracles
[02:10:56] iamlindoro: gbee has a patch to allow preview (screenshot) generation in MythVideo-- that'll involve a process that will allow me to get length, most likely
[02:12:35] RDV_Linux: As far as language is concerned ttvdb already have a language filter (-l) based on your installations local language. It does not fall back to English if there are no local language graphics. The fall back seems like a worth enhancement. I will put it on the list.

[02:18:12] KhaZ__: Hi! Quick dumb question, I'm looking into MythTV as a replacement for TwonkyMedia manager – I basically use it to stream stuff to my 360. Reading up on the UPnP stuff on the MythTV website, it seems to say that this is possible with the 360. Has anyone run both Twonky and MythTV and can say which is better suited for this purpose?
[02:18:41] sphery: KhaZ__: TTBOMK, the main limitation is the types of media that the XBox 360 will accept via UPnP. It doesn't accept MPEG-2, which--at least in the US--is the majority of MythTV recordings.
[02:19:10] sphery: Myth can stream recordings via UPnP, but the 360 doesn't generally play them.
[02:19:24] mkrufky (mkrufky!n=mk@unaffiliated/mkrufky) has joined #mythtv-users
[02:19:33] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, the tvdb cache is *very* helpful when updating the same series
[02:19:34] KhaZ__: Right. But if it's in the right format, it's not an issue? I'm currently mostly streaming xvids and stuff, and I'm just curious if Myth can do the job on that.
[02:19:42] RDV_Linux: I reread your language comment. The current language filter only works on graphics and would need to be extended to meta data (-D) and fall back for everything. I put it on the new feature list.
[02:19:48] sphery: For MythVideo videos, it may be possible (if they're supported CODEC's/containers), but if you're not using the TV stuff, MythTV probably isn't the program you want.
[02:19:49] KhaZ__: Can I use MythTV as a UPnP streamer and ignore the rest of the tv-recording stuff?
[02:20:13] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, Yeah, all just pie-in-the-sky stuff, what's there already does a graet job
[02:20:37] KhaZ__: Hrmm; yeah, I'm not using the TV stuff at all in fact. Was more just hoping that MythTV could be my UPnP app of choice, since the rest of them seem so flakey and Myth has somewhat of a brand-name associated with it. ;)
[02:20:37] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, just that the more I use it the more I start thinking about exotic usage cases-- and trust me, from a few years in Myth land, there are MENY exotic users out there
[02:20:42] iamlindoro: er MANY
[02:21:07] RDV_Linux: I suspect the real work will start when the new grabber interface specification come out.
[02:21:34] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux, I believe our trusty MythVideo maintainer intends to make the necessary modifications himself, given time
[02:21:49] sphery: KhaZ__: at least now (might change somewhat with the next version), the non-TV parts of Myth aren't really what builds the brand :)
[02:22:02] KhaZ__: Fair enough. ;) I'll wait for MythUPnP. ;)
[02:22:15] KhaZ__: No chance that the UPnP component of Myth is standalone, is it?
[02:22:30] sphery: that said, someone here may have a recommendation for a good UPnP server... I don't do UPnP, so I don't have one.
[02:22:48] sphery: No. Myth's UPnP is a small part of the mythbackend.
[02:22:58] KhaZ__: Right, makes sense.\
[02:23:20] KhaZ__: On that note, anyone here recommend a decent Linux -> Xbox 360 UPnP application? Hopefully free? :)
[02:23:34] iamlindoro: !trout sphery some of us are trying to build the other parts of the brand, thanks for pooping on us
[02:23:34] ** MythLogBot slaps sphery with a some of us are trying to build the other parts of the brand, thanks for pooping on us trout on behalf of iamlindoro... **
[02:23:44] RDV_Linux: If you dig beyond ttvdb's use as a grabber for mythvideo it does many things useful for mass updates or nightly jobs. When I use my own scripts I always find more functionality I want to add.
[02:23:54] sphery: That said, though, if you /do/ setup up MythTV and get yourself a couple of capture cards, you may find yourself addicted to the TV stuff.
[02:24:10] sphery: iamlindoro: I said, "might change somewhat with the next version"!
[02:24:36] iamlindoro: sphery, Then again, some of us may be trying to make the merging of certain plugins and certain core functionality more realistic sounding
[02:24:43] sphery: the "somewhat" just being due to my not having experienced any frontend plugins in trunk, yet (since my dev box is /waaaaaayyyyyy/ over there.
[02:24:53] KhaZ__: sphery: True, but then I have to rationalize why I have an already purchased PVR *and* a computer running in my living room to my wife. ;)
[02:25:05] iamlindoro: sphery, If you can take off a sock and hit it, then it's not way over there ;)
[02:25:34] iamlindoro: who needs to run it in the living room? Run it in the closet and run some cables in the wall-- then your wife will love you for removing all those unsightly cables
[02:25:43] sphery: KhaZ__: gut the PVR and stick a nice small mobo in there and she'll never notice... (OK, she /will/ notice--and at first will probably find many issues as you're trying to stabilize it, etc...)
[02:25:48] iamlindoro: then you will get intercoursed
[02:26:20] Lexridge: lol
[02:26:27] KhaZ__: sphery: Heheh, true enough. Although you've got me wondering if my Motorola PVR has already been hacked by the linux crowd that way...
[02:26:29] sphery: I definitely agree with the "don't put a myth frontend or backend in the viewing room" part of what iamlindoro said...
[02:26:36] sphery: can't vouch for the second part, though
[02:26:45] KhaZ__: iamlindoro: Hah. Yeah; recabling my house is another part of the whole endeavour. Le sigh.
[02:27:25] iamlindoro: KhaZ__, This is lesson one of Mythboxing-- it's not a project, it's a hobby :)
[02:27:27] sphery: I would send you a link to the features & screenshots page for MythTV, but I think it was last updated in version 0.13 (we're on 0.21, now)
[02:27:40] sphery: yes, and it's a full-time hobby
[02:27:44] sphery: :)

[02:28:02] mkrufky: the sa3250ch program changes channels correctly for me, but mythtv doesnt. i have the firewire input correctly set up as p2p sa3250 — what else could be wrong?
[02:28:03] KhaZ__: Hehe, I totally understand that. :) If there's one thing I'm guilty of, it's too many half-baked hobbies. :)
[02:28:06] KhaZ__ is now known as KhaZ
[02:28:32] iamlindoro: mkrufky, might need to hack in the model and vendor IDs
[02:28:43] sphery: KhaZ__: let's put it this way... I started off small with MythTV--standard def TV and a 300GB HDD for SDTV recording. I now have a 67" TV and 6.5TB of storage for 100% HDTV recordings.
[02:28:51] mkrufky: iamlindoro: how?
[02:28:58] sphery: And before Myth, I didn't really get into TV.
[02:29:00] iamlindoro: mkrufky, I'm only familiar with how to get them on a moto box, though, but there's likely a verbose command for your channel changer that will spit them out
[02:29:01] KhaZ: sphery: Hah, awesome.
[02:29:17] iamlindoro: mkrufky, Then you need to compare them to the firewire channel changer code in myth for your model and make sure they match
[02:29:22] KhaZ: sphery: Well, that's the thing. I'm not much of a TV watcher, but my wife is. I loathe paying for 95% noise for 5% signal.
[02:29:23] sphery: iamlindoro has a 106" TV (projector)
[02:29:46] mkrufky: iamlindoro: stoth has the same model STB as mine, and it works for him
[02:29:55] mkrufky: in myth
[02:30:05] sphery: yeah, if you're doing cable, you may have more restrictions on ability to record (what with encryption and all), but for OTA, Myth rocks!
[02:30:06] iamlindoro: mkrufky, the same model will often have different hex vendor and model IDs throughout its production run
[02:30:09] mkrufky: iamlindoro: does that eliminate any steps?
[02:30:20] iamlindoro: mkrufky, Have had two identical boxes with different vendor and model IDs
[02:30:27] mkrufky: ah
[02:31:02] mkrufky: in mythtv-setup, there's an option for an external script ... cant i just use that and bypass mythtv's code?
[02:31:12] iamlindoro: mkrufky, yes, although it's a little sub-optimal
[02:31:31] iamlindoro: my way is the cleaner way :) (and you can send a patch and be appreciated for it too)
[02:31:36] mkrufky: needing to rebuild mythtv is also sub-optimal :-/
[02:31:37] iamlindoro: should only take you a couple minutes
[02:31:43] iamlindoro: ccache, dude
[02:31:44] mkrufky: oh, ok
[02:31:46] mkrufky: thats fine
[02:31:58] iamlindoro: rebuild time for a firewire code change should be in the seconds
[02:32:28] mkrufky: is this documented somewhere, or would u care to hold my hand ? either is fine w me
[02:33:24] iamlindoro: mkrufky, first off check out your channel changer and see if there's a verbose option that allows you to spit out that info
[02:34:05] mkrufky: can i paste 3 lines or should i use a pastebin?
[02:34:27] mkrufky: too late: http://rafb.net/p/4BbuCN80.html
[02:34:38] iamlindoro: hang on
[02:34:57] mkrufky: thats the verbose output after the command: sa3250ch -v 17
[02:35:17] iamlindoro: mkrufky, Herm, now I'm confused... but wait
[02:35:19] mkrufky: oh, oops — but it only actually works for me if i specify -s also .... so sa3250ch -v -s 17
[02:35:23] iamlindoro: haha
[02:35:39] mkrufky: im sorry — new paste:
[02:35:40] iamlindoro: okay, go to mythtv/libs/libmythtv
[02:35:59] iamlindoro: and edit firewiredevice.cpp and go to const uint64_t sa_vendor_ids
[02:36:02] mkrufky: so this one is correct: http://rafb.net/p/Yr9FRs73.html
[02:36:21] iamlindoro: now, in trunk that vendor and model ID is there, but check the .21 code, maybe it's been added since
[02:37:20] mkrufky: oh, im confused
[02:37:33] mkrufky: so u mean that i cant send a patch cuz its already supported in trunk?
[02:37:54] iamlindoro: it is, and yes, that's what I mean, but I want to see if .21 has support
[02:38:01] iamlindoro: I suppose I can just go read the svn log, or you could just tell me :)
[02:38:07] iamlindoro: c
[02:38:14] iamlindoro: 'cause I'm doin, ya know, stuff.
[02:38:15] iamlindoro: ;)
[02:38:18] mchou: mkrufky: just use the stand alone proggie for a sanity check
[02:38:21] mkrufky: ok, so u told me to edit this file, and the sources i have here is trunk, lol
[02:38:42] mkrufky: but im not actually running trunk
[02:38:52] iamlindoro: mkrufky, hang on, will just check the .21 source
[02:38:55] mkrufky: k
[02:39:14] mkrufky: mchou: i already used the standalone program, and it works... just mythtv doesnt
[02:40:11] mkrufky: oooh, this might also work on my 4250! i'll try it there next, after i get the 3250 working
[02:40:32] iamlindoro: mkrufky, Hmm, those model and vendor IDs are indeed in .21
[02:40:52] mkrufky: let me clarify my problem
[02:41:06] mchou: mkrufky: then use the standalone for work around in myth for the time being
[02:41:07] mkrufky: mythtv changes the channel, but it goes to the wrong channel
[02:41:15] mkrufky: if i want channel 17, it goes to 49
[02:41:28] mchou: mkrufky: as long as it works, there's no issue
[02:41:47] iamlindoro: mkrufky, Ah, okay, then that is a little different.. hmm, I've defintiely heard this before but don't recall the fix
[02:42:32] mkrufky: hmm

[04:11:35] sphery: kormoc: d'oh... glad I dont have Comcast
[04:12:06] iamlindoro: or glad you're not a bit squirrel
[04:12:09] RyeBrye: I bought an overpowered backend / frontend before vdpau came out – and gosh darnit I'm going to make use of it! :)
[04:12:28] sphery: iamlindoro: that too... though I like my 'net radio
[04:13:16] wagnerrp: i need to make a concerted effort to remember to debug my nfs server next time i find it broken, rather than just reboot it
[04:13:42] iamlindoro: sphery, It's be tought to hit a quarter terabyte with net radio
[04:13:44] sphery: my and his backends are Athlon XP's in the 2000+ to 2400+ range... Frontends in the X24800+ to 6000+ range
[04:13:52] iamlindoro: er it'd, tough
[04:14:07] wagnerrp: thats surely a lot of... erm... linux distros
[04:14:12] sphery: iamlindoro: I should meter my usage just for fun
[04:14:52] RyeBrye: dd-wrt will meter usage for you
[04:15:08] wagnerrp: that reminds me, i need to get mrtg working again
[04:15:10] RyeBrye: if you have it on your router, it gives you pretty little bar graphs showing bandwidth use per day
[04:15:25] sphery: I've always liked OpenWRT
[04:15:43] wagnerrp: my router has been diligently tracking it for the past couple months
[04:15:45] sphery: though I'm onlt using it as an access point
[04:15:56] wagnerrp: but i dont have a 32-bit web server to actually display the data

[04:16:38] RyeBrye: openWRT bricked my router a few times, so now I've gone to dd-wrt since it had prebuilt images that would flash my router without requiring a jtag to recover from the bad flash
[04:16:59] RyeBrye: but I would prefer openWRT over dd-wrt – it just didn't have the same feelings towards me it seems
[04:17:08] sphery: heh...
[04:21:49] RyeBrye: I should find the optimal number of commflag jobs to complete all of them in the quickest possible time
[04:22:05] RyeBrye: one per core?
[04:22:59] RyeBrye: I think overclocked i7's are so fast they finish commflagging the entire hour long show when only 4 minutes of it is recorded ;)
[04:23:51] wagnerrp: RyeBrye: whats the point when they can only possibly run at 30/60fps?
[04:24:19] sphery: RyeBrye: I think it would be when 8mins are recorded--as the logo detector looks at the first 8mins of video to find the logo :)
[04:24:57] RyeBrye: sphery: it's got hyperthreading so it has basically 2 cores looking at 4 minutes which basic algebra will show you adds up to 8 minutes of work
[04:25:10] sphery: oh, that makes sense
[04:25:36] RyeBrye: yeah, it's that old algebra work problem. If one person can do job in 8 minutes, 2 people can do it in 4, duh
[04:25:37] RyeBrye: ;)
[04:27:08] sphery: yeah, or 1000 people could do it in 0.48 seconds

[04:42:02] iamlindoro: however much it costs to get clever to clean out the basement
[04:42:05] wagnerrp: could you find 1000 p2s, plus motherboards, for sale?
[04:42:14] RDV_Linux: iamlindoro: If commcast increased your download speed why would you be having spotty downloads with the tvdb URLs?

[04:44:16] wagnerrp: packet loss is when someone accidentally pulls one of the tubes out
[04:44:18] RyeBrye: iamlindoro: does clever really have 1000 p2's in his basement? that's relatively new tech for him, isn't it?
[04:44:28] wagnerrp: the network tech has to plug it back in
[04:44:41] wagnerrp: corrupt data is when someone pees in the bucket of former water
[04:44:50] iamlindoro: RyeBrye, probably :)
[04:45:10] RDV_Linux: I sure would like to get to the bottom of this issue. It smells like something a lot of people could have.

[06:18:23] mchou: lol
[06:18:29] wagnerrp: the green team?

[06:19:01] Shadow__X: mchou, no thats fob
[06:19:04] Shadow__X: where are you from
[06:19:20] mchou: i.e. he's green
[06:19:35] mchou: meaning inexperienced

[06:20:47] Shadow__X: ah is that why
[06:21:23] mchou: green:
[06:21:23] mchou: 6. Immature in age, judgment, or experience; inexperienced;
[06:21:23] mchou: young; raw; not trained; awkward; as, green in years or
[06:21:23] mchou: judgment.
[06:21:23] mchou: [1913 Webster]
[06:22:10] mchou: not green as in "energy efficient" lol
[06:22:11] Shadow__X: hmm
[06:23:48] mchou: it's strange that Fox has House,MD though
[06:24:25] mchou: that's the last network I'd be expecting a show like that
[06:26:10] wagnerrp: well the other networks had their medical dramas, FOX had to follow suit
[06:26:25] mchou: no, that's not what I mean
[06:26:40] wagnerrp: of course its odd they didnt get moved to friday and cancelled
[06:26:42] mchou: I though Fox caters to right wingnuts
[06:27:04] mchou: House openly questions the existence of God
[06:27:15] mchou: make fun of "believers"
[06:27:20] wagnerrp: fox news... maybe
[06:27:24] Shadow__X: i am sure there are right wingnuts that dont beleive
[06:28:02] mchou: Shadow__X: dude, when I say wingnuts I mean fundies
[06:28:13] Shadow__X: fundies?
[06:28:19] wagnerrp: fundamentalists
[06:28:20] Shadow__X: as in people who give money

[06:28:36] mchou: Shadow__X: where YOU from?
[06:28:37] mchou: lol
[06:28:58] mchou: Shadow__X: lil lacking in American vernacular
[06:29:09] Shadow__X: i guess so
[06:29:13] Shadow__X: never noticed that
[06:31:19] wagnerrp: anyway, i really doubt fox and fox news have any intention of catering to the same audience
[06:32:46] mchou: you'd be mistaken if you watched '24'
[06:33:52] wagnerrp: how long had simpsons been the ire of censorship groups
[06:34:01] mchou: considering the producers of that show were republican operatives in a past life
[06:34:20] wagnerrp: corrupting the children for 20 years
[06:34:36] mchou: simpsons got lame long time ago. It became preachy too
[06:35:00] wagnerrp: perhaps, i cant claim ive watched it in the last 10 years
[06:35:07] mchou: I suspect the pweres that be at fox had something to do with that
[06:35:14] mchou: powers*
[06:36:41] wagnerrp: you cant claim family guy has any form of moral
[06:36:47] wagnerrp: or is really anything but mindless drivel

[14:02:16] mzb_d800: ok, so at the very least we have 3 "fonts" to include, right?
[14:02:30] J-e-f-f-A|work: Oh yeah... ;-)

[14:03:59] J-e-f-f-A|work: hehe... ;-)
[14:05:19] mzb_d800: ok .. so now we've probably got to the stage where we'd be happy to display respective fonts in our lounge-rooms (right?) I'm guessing the next step is to work out a nice way for the client to dynamically load fonts to the lcdproc server (minimal changes/additions to lcdproc to keep the maintainer(s) happy, right?)
[14:06:10] J-e-f-f-A|work: mzb_d800: Well, lcdproc is completly seperate from Myth... So it' be trying to get an acceptable patch to the lcdproc group...
[14:06:13] mzb_d800: strangely enough, at least for the Debian pkg, the maintainer listed is an Australian!
[14:06:23] mzb_d800: (whom I've met/watched)
[14:06:37] mzb_d800: Jon Oxer
[14:06:39] J-e-f-f-A|work: mzb_d800: Ah, so you've got an 'in'... ;-)

[14:08:11] J-e-f-f-A|work: mzb_d800: I'll have to post a message on the lcdproc msg board to ask about the possibility of being able to (re)define the custom characters from an lcdproc client... (ie: an enhancment, as I know it doesn't exist currently)

[14:10:18] J-e-f-f-A|work: mzb_d800: it would sure open up the flexibility of lcdproc alot more... You wouldn't need two custom characters to produce a flashing colon — you could just change the character definition on the fly.

[14:12:11] J-e-f-f-A|work: I'm really surpised they don't already have it — although I suspect it might be because they are trying to accomodate virtually every display out there, and some don't have custom characters...
[14:12:28] mzb_d800: if we can come up with a patch that works (and could _conceivably_ work for other platforms/sizes/shapes/directions-of-wind) we might have a chance of (at least) an audience

[14:18:03] J-e-f-f-A|work: mzb_d800: I suppose the best place to start is to review the patches from the other open-source project, and see about tailoring them to our needs/wants... ;-)
[14:18:29] J-e-f-f-A|work: And come up with a patch that works, submit it to the lcdproc group and see what happens...
[14:19:08] mzb_d800: ok ... I've got a few things I need to work on, then can do say 2hrs one-on-one with you about (say) 1:30–2:00pm my time

[17:42:29] RDV_Linux: iamlindora: You can also add a third argument which specifies formatting of the returned string e,g "%d,%d" would return a comma delimited string of season then episode numbers e.g. "2,10". The default return string is "S02E10".

[18:00:28] kormoc_: hrm, I thought they held it
[18:00:37] sphery: Every food I've ever seen that's called "blue" seems purplish to me...
[18:00:53] sphery: (other than ones like blue cheese, which aren't either)
[18:01:04] xris: sphery: yeah. so the aversion to blue food is actually instinctual. apparently blue dishes tend to make you eat less, too (never helped me while I had blue dishes)
[18:01:13] kormoc_: sphery, http://laterallineco.com/blog/wp-content/uplo . . . bluecrab.jpg
[18:01:40] sphery: kormoc_: OK, I'll admit there's a lot of blue on that...
[18:01:57] sphery: but that's probably just exoskeleton, right? The meat is probably white?
[18:02:11] xris: kormoc_: you may have found the exception.
[18:02:24] xris: well, and parrotfish, which I hear can be somewhat edible.

[18:02:32] kormoc_: So when I've had them, the outer layers of the meat was tinted blue. Very light but still blue
[18:02:38] sphery: hmmm... cool.
[18:02:55] ** stuarta hits udev **
[18:03:56] sphery: So, normally, I don't really have an aversion to foods based on color, but my niece got some "Superman" ice cream ( http://www.chocolateshoppeicecream.com/flavor.cfm?flavorID=108 ) and I have no idea how she was able to eat it.
[18:04:23] sphery: xris: I think you and your wife need to pick up some Superman ice cream to go with those cupcakes.  :)
[18:04:31] kormoc_: I like how Superman is considered fruity
[18:04:36] sphery: heh...

[18:10:35] Shadow__X: right i just want to throw another hd in and expand my arrray to use it

[18:14:13] xris: sphery: superman ice cream just sounds scary...
[18:14:28] deeemac: Is it possible to adjust the input volume of a capture card? I can't seem to lower the input levels as they just stay at 100%.
[18:14:59] xris: anyway, I'll chat with the SD folks about themoviedb/thetvdb.. I've wanted to get better integration into mythweb/mythtv, anyway.
[18:15:15] stuarta: why is creating udev rules for usb sticks so damned difficult
[18:15:18] xris: but once SD self-hosts data, we could actually get that stuff directly into our own xml feed
[18:15:48] J-e-f-f-A|work: deeemac: I can on my ivtv cards (hauppauge 250 and 500) – not sure if it applies to framegrabbers (but you didn't mention what type of card you have...)
[18:15:53] xris: stuarta: at least it works for you. I have a usb disk that works fine in one computer, but doesn't even register in dmesg when I plug it in.
[18:16:09] deeemac: J-e-f-f-A|work: its a saa7134 based card
[18:16:13] stuarta: i can't even influence udev atm
[18:16:33] stuarta: so the usb stick comes up in a different place if it's a cold boot or a warm boot
[18:16:49] Shadow__X: thanks iamlindoro i am just new to this and rather ask they are 4 seagates currently and they have been chugging along no issue whatsoever 1TB though i dont trust 1.5's yet
[18:16:53] J-e-f-f-A|work: deeemac: If it's v4l – then it's a framegrabber, and I don't know enuf to help ya... (doh!)
[18:17:20] ** J-e-f-f-A|work doesn't even trust the 1TB drives... ;-) **
[18:17:59] Shadow__X: why not?
[18:18:17] Shadow__X: so i guess you wouldnt even consider 2TB drives
[18:18:32] sphery: xris: I know that server/bandwidth costs is one of the problems tmdb is having... http://www.themoviedb.org/content/Donate (and he also sent an e-mail to users--I could forward to you if you want). Don't know if that's something SD could help with (if not through money, perhaps directly with help hosting/mirroring)?
[18:18:41] deeemac: J-e-f-f-A|work: well, i don't use the v4l drivers, I'm pulling video over s-video and audio over a stereo headphone line in jack
[18:18:49] J-e-f-f-A|work: Shadow__X: They're probably better now, but when they first came out, there were lots of reports of reliability issues... I've stuck with my 500's for along time...
[18:19:15] xris: sphery: yeah, we have plenty of bandwidth on our dev machine.
[18:19:18] J-e-f-f-A|work: deeemac: you need the v4l drivers to get the /dev/video0 device.. so yeah, you're using them...
[18:19:34] J-e-f-f-A|work: deeemac: You're just not using the tuner
[18:19:55] Shadow__X: J-e-f-f-A|work, i fully agree in the beginning there where issues left and right and they would just die but i havnt had an issue and thats why i went with a raid5 array just in case and didnt have money for raid 6
[18:20:12] xris: kormoc is finally on our payroll to help set up the machine (never could find a good volunteer), so once he's set up a standard for creating VMs, it should be easy for us to create one for tmdb.
[18:20:44] xris: assuming his day job doesn't overwork him to death.
[18:21:16] J-e-f-f-A|work: Shadow__X: I was running a software raid5 for ~1.5 yrs, and had a couple of 500's die one day on a reboot (they were fine before...) Since then (and losing all my programs), I just use storage groups. Much faster too...
[18:21:30] deeemac: sphery: I think the issue I'm still having with the sound from yesterday is the volume levels for the input card are set to 100% and causing distortion heh
[18:21:43] iamlindoro_: If it *is* hosted/mirrored locally, then querying it once a day and inserting season/episode numbers into the SD information would be ++++++++
[18:21:55] sphery: deeemac: oh... that would be a problem.
[18:22:00] J-e-f-f-A|work: Shadow__X: Less wear on the drives, and I'd rather lose 1TB of recordings than 2.5TB (everything)
[18:22:37] Shadow__X: whats a storage group
[18:22:39] Shadow__X: is it like lvm
[18:22:46] deeemac: sphery: but it doesn't let me change the volume levels of left channel, only the right
[18:23:03] sphery: xris: not to mention kormoc being worked to death on the MythWeb Python conversion (I'm guessing you've heard the story :)
[18:23:22] J-e-f-f-A|work: Shadow__X: Just individual drives, and myth spreads the recordings across all of them.
[18:23:37] iamlindoro_: I wonder if taking an impromptu half day when my boss and his boss and most other people are out would be frowned upon...
[18:23:39] Shadow__X: oh ok gotcha yeah
[18:23:46] J-e-f-f-A|work: Shadow__X: so I've got sdc, sdd, sde, sdf, sdg and sdh.  ;-)
[18:23:46] deeemac: J-e-f-f-A|work: you could always to a raid 10 setup
[18:23:53] sphery: Shadow__X: a storage group is a logical name for a group of directories... Meaning that you can add dirs and files can be in any dir that's defined in the SG.
[18:23:58] kormoc_: iamlindoro_, RUN! RUN AWAY! FAR FAR AWAY!
[18:24:27] sphery: Shadow__X: takes the absolute location out of the DB and finds it at runtime
[18:24:28] J-e-f-f-A|work: deeemac: yeah, but lose 1/2 the capacity... it's not THAT important... I'd just rather lose some recordings rather than the whole shebang... ;-)
[18:24:33] iamlindoro_: kormoc_: Plus, it's Friday and it's not as though I'm getting anything useful done (although I did just make some sexy improvements to my PBB->MythVideo export code :)
[18:24:44] xris: sphery: I suspect he probably dislikes python only slightly less than he dislikes perl.  :)
[18:24:46] sphery: RAID for TV is a waste
[18:24:53] J-e-f-f-A|work: deeemac: My OS/database disk is raid1. ;-)
[18:24:56] iamlindoro_: Every time I add a new patch to trac, my head hits the pillow and I think of five more things I need to add the next morning
[18:25:07] deeemac: J-e-f-f-A|work: that's what's important!
[18:25:10] kormoc_: xris, heh, I've actually done some useful things in perl... can't say that bout python :P
[18:25:17] iamlindoro_: ergo patch names like MythVideo.SeasSubEp.18.diff

[18:26:19] deeemac: J-e-f-f-A|work: I'm setting up a raidz pool of two raidz1 pools with a hotspare, just need 3 more drives before I can get it setu
[18:26:26] xris: I'd like python if it wasn't for the "no braces / mandatory whitespace" thing.. but of course, that's supposed to be the main reason to like python.
[18:26:33] ** xris dreads having to learn ruby for work. **
[18:26:40] sphery: yeah, the mandatory whitespace is just plain wrong
[18:26:40] iamlindoro_: sphery: Well great, add another thing to my list ;)
[18:26:43] J-e-f-f-A|work: Shadow__X: I considered LVM, but decided individual drives with storage groups seemed to make more sense.
[18:27:02] sphery: iamlindoro_: figured that's one less thing you have to think up before falling asleep tonight... just trying to help you sleep better.
[18:27:13] kormoc_: ugh... I hate ruby
[18:27:23] Shadow__X: hmm well i have 4 1TB drives in raid 5 and the fs is XFS and i plan to keep adding drives
[18:27:27] iamlindoro_: sphery: I'm fairly satisfied with the way it's all working ATM, and figure as the file squirrels start to use it they can submit patches for the exotic naming schemes
[18:27:33] sphery: iamlindoro_: (basically, though, I'd recommend making it as similar to the big one you already did as possible)
[18:27:33] kormoc_: the entire way from language constructs to implimentation/deployment sucks the big ones
[18:27:55] iamlindoro_: sphery: Dunno if you saw, but I set the TVDB grabber images to download in a format already compatible with the PBB fanart/etc. support
[18:28:02] J-e-f-f-A|work: Shadow__X: Well, add them as individual drives, and just add them to your storage group. ;-) No need to un-do what you have now...
[18:28:06] sphery: iamlindoro_: nice
[18:28:07] kormoc_: I need to get that zoom patch committed in
[18:28:23] sphery: xris: see, with all of iamlindoro_'s patches, the integration is coming along very nicely... :)
[18:28:23] Shadow__X: yeah true i do like thw ay its working now
[18:30:18] sphery: kormoc_: or if you want an easier patch to warm you up, there's the one you liked on http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/4956 ;)
[18:31:26] kormoc_: perhaps this weekend I'll get all c++ rambo!

[19:40:56] RDV_Linux: Also the issue with a video file name with a dash in it was a false alarm.
[19:41:04] RDV_Linux: What about the nameing?
[19:41:38] iamlindoro_: RDV_Linux: It's only *named* that way, it's not actually insisting on a banner being for that specific season
[19:41:59] iamlindoro_: That logic is all in your script
[19:42:20] iamlindoro_: if there's such a thing as season banners and non-season banners, then you should get the script to give a season banner if exists, and fall back if none exists

[19:50:22] iamlindoro_: ahh

[19:50:44] GreyFoxx: If either had firewire I'd be on it in a heartbeat
[19:50:53] mchou: oh no doubt
[19:50:59] GreyFoxx: for if the R5000 stuff was cheaper I'd do that
[19:51:00] mchou: that'd be a no brainer
[19:51:47] GreyFoxx: I've got a buddy who uses the R5000 mod and it works prefectly for him on BEV
[19:52:06] iamlindoro_: GreyFoxx: They do have the self-installs now
[19:52:27] GreyFoxx: yeah but even that is way more than an hdpvr
[19:52:34] iamlindoro_: yeah
[19:53:34] sphery: iamlindoro_: Heh. For Myth, writing to disk is no problem, but for that BlackMagic card--assuming it's giving you YUV 4:2:2 (say, 8-bit) uncompressed--for 1080i60 (59.94fields/sec) it's nearly 60MiB/sec... Or, for 720p60 (59.94fps), it's almost 53MiB/sec.

[19:54:03] iamlindoro_: sphery: Yeah, just one of the reasons those cards holds no appeal for me
[19:54:15] sphery: yeah, HD-PVR is definitely the way to go for Myth.
[19:54:39] sphery: would be a complete waste to even try to get Linux drivers for the BlackMagic
[19:55:14] iamlindoro_: yar
[19:55:21] sphery: (at least for purposes of TV recording/Myth)
[19:56:33] iamlindoro_: Yes, for compositing/editing I can see wanting what amounts to a framegrabber
[19:56:58] gbee: waste? Because they'll never release information to aid their creation, or just because we already have a decent solution?
[19:57:01] ** GreyFoxx wants a wireless webcam that has a battery pack **
[19:57:33] iamlindoro_: gbee: I think he means the latter
[19:57:49] iamlindoro_: as for myth purposes the HD-PVR is a good deal better (IMO)

[19:59:39] iamlindoro_: xris: I like QAM and firewire too, but I guess we/I meant more in absence of the better solutions

[20:00:05] Shadow__X: yeah with the hd pvr i can record everything
[20:01:15] iamlindoro_: My major stumbling block my with HD-PVR is still the lack of commercial cut

[20:04:01] GreyFoxx: problem detecting keyframes ?
[20:04:06] iamlindoro_: Yes. lossless transcode in myth for purposes of removing commercials is MPEG-2 only, and thus not functional with HD-PVR recordings
[20:04:19] iamlindoro_: GreyFoxx: no, just the codec issue
[20:04:20] Shadow__X: ohh
[20:04:22] GreyFoxx: ahh
[20:04:23] Shadow__X: hmm
[20:04:29] Shadow__X: so you cant cut commercials
[20:04:29] GreyFoxx: That wont bother me at all
[20:04:31] Shadow__X: ?
[20:04:33] Shadow__X: :(
[20:04:45] GreyFoxx: not with lossless
[20:04:55] iamlindoro_: GreyFoxx: I keep toying with the idea of building a fallback GOP-level cutter into mythtranscode, but it'd be a lot of work and frustration
[20:05:13] iamlindoro_: but GOP-level should be doable once the new h264parser is working nicely
[20:06:04] iamlindoro_: ie get bit offsets, find bit offset for nearest keyframe, dump to file, rebuild seektable, voila
[20:07:28] sphery: OK, so since everything for Windows MCE has the same name (Windows MCE Remote or Windows MCE Keyboard), I really can't answer the latest question on "LIRC Remote Presses Are All Converted To Upper Case Characters"

[20:10:31] J-e-f-f-A|work: sphery: but he's not using an MCE remote/keyboard – he's using a MCE USB receiver with a Sky remote that flips open to reveal a full keyboard. Kinda like a cell phone does...

[20:11:17] J-e-f-f-A|work: sphery: I'll bet the remote doesn't even send discreet upper/lower case codes...
[20:12:10] sphery: right... but it has a shift key, I'd bet.
[20:12:13] Shadow__X: is there a way to record raw ir codes off a mce receiver
[20:12:23] Dagmar: How many ways do you need
[20:12:50] Dagmar: LIRC comes with the tools for doing pretty much anything and everything you'd need aside from determining if you're looking for the wrong pilot frequency
[20:13:02] J-e-f-f-A|work: sphery: Yeah, but I have some IR keyboards from dish from my old DishPlayer PVRs – they transmit a code for shift being held down, and the same code for the "A" key, regardless if shift is pressed down or not.
[20:13:04] Shadow__X: hmm ok
[20:13:12] Dagmar: It does include a sniffer so that you can personally eyeball the PCM or otherwise signal
[20:13:29] Shadow__X: ah ok
[20:13:35] J-e-f-f-A|work: Shadow__X: I don't know the answer to that... I think the MCE USB receiver only understands RC6...
[20:13:42] sphery: yeah, but he shouldn't use LIRC--if he does, the keyboard is useless (as Myth's LIRC support is not meant for keyboards)
[20:13:49] Dagmar: This is the reason I tell people to just go ahead, bite the bullet, and learn how LIRC works
[20:14:01] sphery: J-e-f-f-A|work: yeah, RC6
[20:14:01] J-e-f-f-A|work: sphery: from what I understand, that's what he's doing...
[20:14:07] Dagmar: sphery: Myth's keyboard support doesn't work so well either
[20:14:24] sphery: J-e-f-f-A|work: that's what I'm telling him to do, but he's not doing it until someone tells him, "Yes, it works."
[20:14:59] sphery: (i.e. I'm telling him not to use LIRC)
[20:15:01] Shadow__X: ok
[20:15:05] Dagmar: So, odds are his next question will be "Prove it"
[20:15:13] Dagmar: ...or some variation thereof.
[20:15:23] sphery: yeah, but I can't (as I have none of the hardware)

[20:15:40] sphery: only understand that Myth's LIRC is not a keyboard replacement
[20:16:00] Dagmar: He'll complain for sure about what happens then you type numbers into an input box
[20:16:22] sphery: well, that changes completely for 0.22
[20:16:25] J-e-f-f-A|work: sphery: I found a web page a few weeks ago of a guy that built an IR keyboard driver that receives the keycodes from lirc and converts them to key presses... ie, if you're holding 'shift' and press "a", it sends an upper-case "A" to the keyboard buffer mechanism... (/dev/input ? – cant remember off the top of my head)
[20:16:30] sphery: so at least I could say, "be patient"
[20:16:34] Dagmar: I've heard, and I'm glad
[20:17:09] sphery: J-e-f-f-A|work: that's the type of thing he needs (and, I think that's pretty much what the mod_mce driver does--except without requiring LIRC)
[20:17:42] Dagmar: J-e-f-f-A: His device should, for all intents and purposes, behave like a usb wireless keyboard, afaik
[20:17:51] sphery: i.e. mod_mce is the equivalent of the kernel's ATI/X10 remote driver (which treats the remote as a keyboard instead of as a remote)
[20:17:52] J-e-f-f-A|work: sphery: I started looking at it to put my DishPlayer IR keyboards back into use... but haven't had the time to convert it to my keyboards...
[20:18:07] Dagmar: It should "just work" without him having to have LIRC installed at all.
[20:18:15] Dagmar: So him demanding someone tell him it'll work is a little retarded.
[20:18:24] sphery: Dagmar: right, once he has a driver for it
[20:18:30] J-e-f-f-A|work: Dagmar: I dunno — it's a special remote for a Sky STB... not a "PC" remote control device.
[20:18:41] Dagmar: Well, my follow-up for that would be "Is he running Ubuntu? It's probably freaking in there""
[20:19:00] J-e-f-f-A|work: Dagmar: hehe... ;-)
[20:19:20] Dagmar: J-e-f-f-A: Something like that you could still write a non-suck config file for
[20:19:36] Dagmar: I swear it's not very hard, its' just tedious
[20:19:42] J-e-f-f-A|work: It's actually a neat looking unit... I almost bought one just to hack around with and get working..
[20:21:02] J-e-f-f-A|work: Dagmar: Well, if it's working in a way similar to the Dish keyboards I have, it would require a program to 'decode' the key combinations (ie shift/alt/ctrl, etc) to produce the 'correct' combo keypress.
