[00:14:01] Dagmar: Ponty: Run ifconfig. Look at the errors field for RX and TX packets. Any number greater than about well, 0 should be cause for concern.
[00:14:24] Dagmar: Odds are if you have something more than a dozen or so tx/rx errors, you have a cabling issue

[00:17:17] kormoc: blame it on rats
[00:17:28] iamlindoro: Not on the a-a-a-a-a-alcohol?
[00:17:34] Ponty: She's only been up for about a day so far. I'll keep my eye on that aspect IF I get a dropped video.
[00:17:34] kormoc: that works too
[00:17:59] iamlindoro: So I got hack not one, not two, but THREE AppleTV's for Myth this weekend
[00:18:15] kormoc: nice
[00:18:28] Ponty: Clarify?

[00:18:34] iamlindoro: leading me to believe that while it *can* be made to work for broadcast ATSC/QAM up to 1080i, nobody in their right ming *should* do so
[00:18:37] SHADOW_V: iamlindoro -5 points
[00:18:47] iamlindoro: s/ming/mind/
[00:19:20] wagnerrp: so are you going to have to go around in a couple months and upgrade everything?
[00:19:25] iamlindoro: SHADOW_V, iamlindoro + $$$
[00:19:41] SHADOW_V: alright that makes it better i gues
[00:20:11] iamlindoro: wagnerrp, Yeah, that would be more $ :)
[00:20:30] SHADOW_V: push out small updates to myth
[00:20:33] SHADOW_V: :)
[00:20:50] wagnerrp: yeah... might be able to do it remotely

[00:24:33] SHADOW_V: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/TerraTec_Cinergy_C_DVB-C

[00:24:56] SHADOW_V: this thing people call google
[00:25:09] iamlindoro: Bah! yet another screen committed that I have to theme
[00:25:45] SHADOW_V: whose cracking the whip
[00:26:17] wagnerrp: what is a 'cracking the whip'
[00:26:33] SHADOW_V: i meant cracking the whip to make him do it
[00:26:59] iamlindoro: I am, I was just starting to get in sight of all current MythUI screens themed
[00:27:09] SHADOW_V: ah ok
[00:27:15] iamlindoro: Did most of the recording scheduling stuff over the past few days
[00:27:19] jams: iamlindoro- i'm just glad your committed to theming most of the screens. 98% of the themes out there don't do it.
[00:27:27] jams: And yes some of theme can be a REAL pain
[00:27:41] iamlindoro: jams, In fairness, I won't be touching MythArchive, MythFlix, or MythZM :)

[00:28:09] Mozz: SHADOW_V: yeah, i have read it. My problem is that i can't get remote control working
[00:28:11] jams: bah you can do mythflix. It should be almost a direct copy of mythnews
[00:28:21] iamlindoro: jams, but no way to test it
[00:28:32] jams: i see
[00:29:01] jams: mytharchive is tricky, just don't try to move any anything around and it works =)
[00:29:22] iamlindoro: I don't ever use mytharchive
[00:29:31] iamlindoro: and I'm not sure it's even converted yet
[00:29:36] jams: it isn't
[00:32:58] Mozz: nice, some progression. Now /dev/lirc0 and irw react to pushing remotes buttons

[00:34:39] skd5aner: I'm having a problem trying to bring my backend up after a parition failure, was hoping someone might be able to help – myth can't connect to MySQL, although I can connect without problems via the console via the mysql command
[00:35:26] wagnerrp: sounds like youre missing your config.xml
[00:39:32] skd5aner: that's what I thought... so, I copied it from my frontend...
[00:40:17] skd5aner: still caused the issue
[00:40:25] skd5aner: actually – let me try something real quick...
[00:41:58] skd5aner: well – so, now mythbackend will start without any problems once I've removed config.xml and mysql.txt
[00:42:17] skd5aner: that makes no sense to me...

[00:43:58] skd5aner: go figure

[00:44:48] skd5aner: anyway – have a good night everyone

[00:46:29] iamlindoro: There, themed, a pox on it
[00:46:49] sphery: re: comment on #3405 on -dev list "Yep, me [been using the patch for ALSA input for analog capture] too. And for the sceptics, it's not there just to accommodate ancient framegrabbers. My dvb cards love it too." — Yeah, the framegrabber on your DVB card that uses ancient technology.
[00:47:52] sphery: austin: is it a "free movies weekend" kind of thing?
[00:48:59] jams: yes it is
[00:48:59] austin: yeah
[00:49:02] austin: too bad i caught it at the end of the weekend
[00:49:56] SHADOW_V: austin, comcast?
[00:50:03] austin: yeah
[00:50:10] SHADOW_V: what region
[00:50:16] SHADOW_V: and of course when i have my box down
[00:50:21] SHADOW_V: i dont even have hbo though
[00:50:51] austin: found this... http://www.freepreview.tv/hbo/reminder-hbo-ci . . . oviders.html
[00:51:27] sphery: closest I get to free movies weekend is "this", which plays tons of movies (mainly old and classics--but they often do the originals just before the modern remake is released :)
[00:51:32] jams: there all my universal remotes are updated & synced, nowthe orig can be boxed.
[00:51:59] jams: And the harmony one can be placed on ebay.
[00:52:26] austin: SHADOW_V: you don't need hbo, they just open it on clearQAM and then it is available via cable box or from qam tuner
[00:52:38] SHADOW_V: sweet let me go check

[00:53:42] wagnerrp: free skinimax?
[00:54:35] austin: indeed 579000000 in my area(comcast)
[00:54:47] wagnerrp: its actually named on QAM?
[00:55:14] austin: no, happened to be doing a scan through all the qam's and doing caps and saw a screenshot of the dark knight
[00:55:28] austin: *wait a minute.....*
[00:57:44] wagnerrp: presuming HBO is going to be in HD, at fairly high bitrate and on with maybe 1–2 other channels
[00:58:04] wagnerrp: ive got a singular channel on 103... that doesnt seem right
[00:59:13] austin: 63:579000000:QAM_256:2048:2049:3
[00:59:13] austin: 64:579000000:QAM_256:2112:2113:1
[00:59:13] austin: 65:579000000:QAM_256:1984:1985:2 in this case HBO was 64 of this frequency and cinnemax is 65
[01:00:59] austin: the other one is still encrypted so i presume that may be showtime

[01:45:15] iamlindoro: Heh, MS MCE had any ATSC channel that changed frequencies go dark, and is still dark, and you can't scan for channels in MCE
[01:45:23] ** iamlindoro suppresses a smug chortle **
[01:45:34] iamlindoro: have to wait for MS to issue a fix
[01:46:12] iamlindoro: or manually add the channel by finding and entering the frequency, yum
[02:05:41] Ponty: <- Sucker for punishment. I received a ATI TV Wonder VE card for nadda. Saw some `minor` things I have to do to get MythTV working, and REGARDLESS if its a dual framegrabber, its a free card. :P
[02:06:48] ** iamlindoro sighs, shakes his head **

[02:07:19] Ponty: I'm still gonna look for a 150. But reluctant to lose coing because of Rogers dropping Analog.
[02:07:35] Ponty: Not 5. 4. 2 I had BEFORE I got the myth box going. :P

[02:11:33] SHADOW_V: they are horrid
[02:11:38] SHADOW_V: quality sucks
[02:11:41] SHADOW_V: and use cpu power
[02:13:21] Ponty: They should be outlawed.
[02:13:49] Ponty: Primarily because ANY capture card would tend to keep me awake till 2am, so I should at least get quality out of it. {smirk}
[02:14:52] SHADOW_V: hmmm
[02:15:00] SHADOW_V: sounds like a personal problem
[02:15:02] SHADOW_V: heh
[02:15:05] Ponty: heh
[02:15:29] Ponty: It is a personal problem. Called finances. Where do I want to put my money? Into a decent capture card, or food on the table?
[02:16:02] SHADOW_V: 1/2 each
[02:16:16] SHADOW_V: i am sure people could cut alittle weight
[02:16:24] SHADOW_V: and with better quality recorded tv they wouldnt realize
[02:16:27] SHADOW_V: see case closed
[02:17:16] Ponty: {chuckle} Well, so far this week it seems I do have some extra coin. `IF` I have some left over at the end of the month, I'll buy a 150. :P
[02:17:23] SHADOW_V: also its early to tell but i think comcast may not through the book at me for downloading too much
[02:17:26] Ponty: And if its as good as you say it is, then, well, I'll have to hunt two.
[02:17:42] SHADOW_V: i didnt have anything to say about the 150
[02:18:05] SHADOW_V: i have 2 hvr -1600's a hvr -1800 and a pinnacle hdtv something or other
[02:18:18] SHADOW_V: but mpeg encoders are better and you do see a difference
[02:19:30] Ponty: I was looking at the 1600. Just the three digit price tag (To the left of the decimal point) kind has me weary. ESPECIALLY if Rogers drops analog, and thats the WHOLE reason why I'm not going that route yet.
[02:19:57] SHADOW_V: well theres the thing though
[02:20:07] SHADOW_V: if rodgers may drop analog why wouldnt you want a dual card
[02:20:10] SHADOW_V: like the 1600
[02:20:36] SHADOW_V: than you could record either analog from the line or analog over composite and qam or atsc
[02:21:15] Ponty: Thats the other part I'm uneducated on. If they do drop Analog, and I do gotta go to Digital, will the card tune to the different channels I want to record?
[02:22:01] SHADOW_V: Ponty, well there are afew things to consider
[02:22:08] iamlindoro: so long as those channels are unencrypted
[02:22:24] SHADOW_V: such as if rodgers broadcasts a good amount of unencrypted channels
[02:22:28] iamlindoro: or if you decided to get a set top box and capture the analog output of that

[02:22:35] SHADOW_V: thats it
[02:22:38] SHADOW_V: right
[02:22:59] iamlindoro: he's in canada, they don't even have that mandate
[02:23:07] SHADOW_V: oh ok
[02:23:10] snarkster: hi does anyone know if mythbuntu has the netflix module? Or is that still around?
[02:23:17] SHADOW_V: so he might not have anything over qam?
[02:23:29] iamlindoro: yes, it is still around, and yes, it is available in mythbuntu
[02:23:36] iamlindoro: SHADOW_V, in theory, yes, he could get nothing
[02:24:12] Ponty: I *SUPPOSE* that if I do get screwed with Rogers, then it'd be a pretty easy case of trying to sell the card in here, eh? ;)
[02:24:31] snarkster: awesome! have you ever used it? is it considered one of the watch on tv now devices?
[02:24:51] iamlindoro: snarkster, MythFlix is only for queue management, there is no video component to it
[02:25:00] snarkster: oh thats a shame
[02:25:24] SHADOW_V: akaik linux cant watch netflix natively right
[02:25:25] Ponty: MythTV's netflix != Public Netflix.
[02:26:21] snarkster: well i treid to watch a movie with firefox on kubuntu and it said my os isnt suopported. they must have some sort of way to id
[02:26:36] Dagmar: How in the hell is that our problem
[02:27:54] Ponty: snarkster> The Netflix service (Order CDs/Stream video online) you're talking about has NOTHING to do with the MythTV product.
[02:28:00] clever: snarkster: firefox tells the website your exact browser and os version in the user-agent field
[02:28:14] snarkster: yah i know.. sorry off topic

[02:28:50] SHADOW_V: hey clever do you have any clear qam
[02:28:56] SHADOW_V: or do you even have a qam tuner
[02:28:56] iamlindoro: Ponty, You are wrong
[02:29:01] clever: SHADOW_V: no idea, dont have any digital tuners
[02:29:07] Ponty: Ok, I'm wrong. Again.
[02:30:28] clever: bbl
[02:34:31] iamlindoro: jams, There, themed MythFlix just to make you happy ;)
[02:34:37] iamlindoro: It *probably* works fine
[02:34:54] jams: i'm sure it does
[02:35:07] iamlindoro: I'm still not theming MythZM or Archive though ;)
[02:35:13] jams: can't blame you
[02:35:26] iamlindoro: Maybe if I get really drunk I'll do MythArchive ;)
[02:36:07] jams: i wouldn't bother with it, as you can't do much with it besides change backgrounds
[02:36:26] jams: and change the buttons
[02:36:32] iamlindoro: jams, So I did a four-system Myth install this weekend, your Settings plugin would *really* have come in handy

[02:40:09] Ponty: Is it possible to get Mythweather working for Canada?

[03:09:13] wagnerrp: so do the theora guys have some sort of inferiority complex?
[03:10:08] wagnerrp: they keep coming out with claims that they are just as good or better using comparisons that are almost fraudulent
[03:12:42] wagnerrp: they came out with a comparison yesterday in response to youtube using for h264 for their html5 video demo
[03:13:07] wagnerrp: they have a 500kbps sample of h264 and theora on the same frame, and h264 looks a bit better
[03:13:41] wagnerrp: then they have a 325kbps sample of h263 and theora on the same frame as before, and theora looks vastly better
[03:13:58] wagnerrp: so obviously theora is the better codec when you want to use low bitrate

[04:01:17] wagnerrp: ah, was going to say my mceusb2 didnt work properly UNTIL 0.8.4
[04:02:03] jblack: mceusb2, I meant. Ironically, 0.8.3 was the last time it worked at all (that was every x boots, things were fine)
[04:02:35] jblack: but I'm not sure that I'm using the lirc modules that I think I am

[04:12:30] jblack: I like the one I have, when it actually works.
[04:12:59] jblack: ponty: Exactly my thinking.
[04:13:20] jblack: Money may not buy happines,s but it can help cut back on the stress
[04:14:12] Ponty: Happiness is a matter of relativity. I don't think thats an accurate example when applied to an extreme. It may not buy pure happiness, but is certainly does buy some.
[04:15:04] jblack: I'm decidedly unhappy with no remote. I'm about ready to plug the tivo back in.
[04:15:37] jblack: Wow. For once, thinkgeek is actually cheaper on something?

[05:28:44] SHADOW_V: core i7 975 should fix your problems
[05:29:21] iamlindoro: He's on his 4th framegrabber, what do you think the odds are he'll buy an i7?
[05:29:45] Ponty: I get to build a whole system versus plug in a single card?
[05:30:35] SHADOW_V: iamlindoro, i dont know maybe he will eventually realise shotty frame grabbers on older tech turns into a pitfall of wasted time
[05:30:53] Ponty: What I might do is get my wifes machine (My old gamers box) which is a 3ghz 800mhz FSB Intel P4 chip and see if the card will work.
[05:31:47] Ponty: I know, I know.. the 150 would bring down the CPU load immensely. :P
[05:32:09] wagnerrp: what system are you currently running?
[05:32:24] Ponty: P4 3ghz 533fsb w/ HT.
[05:32:35] wagnerrp: plenty for a framegrabber
[05:32:47] wagnerrp: if you cant get it working on one 3GHz P4, you wont do it on another
[05:32:59] SHADOW_V: how much ram
[05:33:01] wagnerrp: guess thats a cue to give up... :P
[05:33:17] Ponty: Well, its not the fact that I'm losing frames. its just anything external to the machine seems to barf randomly.
[05:33:23] Ponty: SHADOW_V> A gig I think.
[05:33:54] Ponty: Correction, 2gig.
[05:34:06] SHADOW_V: hmm
[05:34:15] SHADOW_V: that box shouldnt be having those problems
[05:34:23] SHADOW_V: i would mem test it and check logs
[05:34:29] SHADOW_V: was that a stable system before
[05:34:48] Ponty: Yeah, it was. I bought it new, aside from the memory.
[05:35:09] SHADOW_V: buying something new does not mean its stable
[05:35:20] Ponty: Well, its lasted 5+ years.
[05:35:36] Ponty: And its always been rock solid. 2K up to XP, and now Myth.
[05:35:46] SHADOW_V: again if you never taxed the system problems wouldnt of arisen
[05:35:56] SHADOW_V: prime 95?
[05:36:00] SHADOW_V: any of that stuff
[05:36:08] wagnerrp: we have memory randomly go bad after a couple years at work
[05:36:27] wagnerrp: no instability, no warning
[05:36:40] SHADOW_V: try memtest
[05:36:50] SHADOW_V: yeah i had a pair of 1 gig sticks that where fine
[05:36:52] Ponty: wagnerrp> I'd be seeing a lot more issues with bad memory than just random external disconnects. The machine does stay up, framegrabs everything I ask of it. Its just when I start to stream, it craps.
[05:36:55] SHADOW_V: i moved the machine
[05:36:58] SHADOW_V: now one stick is bad
[05:37:19] wagnerrp: except suddenly your simulation run goes bad, forcing you to delete two weeks of runtime on half the cluster
[05:37:43] wagnerrp: nothing like canning 100k CPU hours
[05:37:56] Ponty: I did that with my current machine. Working great. Finished a game of Need for Speed, then brought it to work. memory fried en route. Didn't take the machine apart, or anything prior to it died. Scared me pretty badly. heh

[10:40:37] superdump (superdump!n=rob@unaffiliated/superdump) has joined #mythtv-users
[10:41:24] Dibblah: JohnQ: You can't mix them.
[10:41:30] JohnQ: I know that.
[10:41:58] Dibblah: Same version on FE and BE is the only supported configuration, really.
[10:42:05] Dibblah: For varying values of supported.
[10:42:40] JohnQ: ... I know that as well.
[10:42:55] JohnQ: That is exactly why I am asking the question.
[10:43:24] Dibblah: Same SVN version.
[10:43:35] Dibblah: So the same binaries for frontend and backend.
[10:44:09] JohnQ: sigh. Nevermnd
[10:44:33] Dibblah: What's the problem you're trying to solve here?
[10:45:18] JohnQ: No problem. I just wanted to know the protocol versions used in 0.21 and head as of today. I'll just go find out on my own.
[10:45:18] Dibblah: mythbackend --version |grep "Network Protocol"
[10:45:36] JohnQ: I know what version *I* am running.
[10:47:16] GreyFoxx: head uses protocol ver 45
[10:47:17] stuarta: we don't change protocols in the stable series
[10:47:23] stuarta: so that's unchanged
[10:47:27] JohnQ: 45. thanks.
[10:47:53] stuarta: 40 in 0.21
[10:48:05] JohnQ: perfect. thats exactly what I needed. Gracias
[10:50:30] JohnQ: How easy is it to downgrade your db to a previous version?
[10:50:49] Dibblah: Restore from the backup.
[10:50:55] stuarta: or start over
[10:51:10] Dibblah: Generally, not very. And that's not dependent on the protocol version.
[10:51:20] Dibblah: It's the schema versions in the database.
[10:51:27] JohnQ: I know this as well.
[10:51:49] Dibblah: If you know, why ask?
[10:51:56] Dibblah: Again, what are you trying to do?
[10:52:11] Dibblah: I am actually trying to help here.
[10:52:13] JohnQ: I didn't ask if the protocol versions were related to the schema versions...
[10:52:35] Dibblah: No. You asked about DB downgrading.
[10:52:39] JohnQ: Help with what? I don't really have a problem that needs helping.
[10:54:06] stuarta: just asking random questions?

[14:35:55] CyberKnet: I know what FUD is, I just don't see how it applies here.
[14:35:59] stuarta: what's shorthand for marketing BS? MBS?

[14:38:46] wagnerrp: ive got one loading a couple kernel modules
[14:39:02] wagnerrp: the last one fails, so the whole thing fails, theres no root device, and the kernel panics
[14:39:13] stuarta: ah that old chestnut
[14:39:20] wagnerrp: so i change it to dump into a shell, load the last module manually, and it works just fine
[14:39:37] stuarta: sounds like you need to rebuild the initrd
[14:39:55] wagnerrp: the only thing i can think is that the previous module hadnt really finished inserting before the next one tried, and was missing parts from the previous, so could not load

[14:40:24] jamey: Hello, lets say i have two monitors on one computer both running mythtv and i have two remotes Ir, I want one remote to control one monitor and the other to control the other one. I already test both remotes with (irw /dev/lircd and irw /dev/lircd1) and that works. However getting the second ir to work independtly is the problem
[14:41:16] jamey: when i try to get it working in myth
[14:41:20] wagnerrp: are these two different remotes running off two different lirc drivers?
[14:41:20] stuarta: wagnerrp: more likely a different module thinks it supports you hardware, but doesn't, so it craps out
[14:41:29] jamey: yes
[14:41:52] wagnerrp: stuarta: i ran the exact same command as is in the init script, but from within a bash shell inside the initrd
[14:42:34] stuarta: odd
[14:42:36] wagnerrp: jamey: you can set up lirc to only use commands from a certain remote driver
[14:42:42] wagnerrp: so you set up a pair of user accounts
[14:42:54] wagnerrp: each with their own lircrc file, using a different remote

[14:43:29] wagnerrp: i think thats disabled by default anyway
[14:43:41] jamey: wagnerrp: i did that
[14:44:02] jamey: oh i enabled that, just recently
[14:44:21] wagnerrp: well enabling it should just cause the second one to start
[14:44:24] jamey: I thought that was for lirc
[14:44:40] wagnerrp: or maybe it will just complain about not being able to bind to the socket, and will continue to run normally without the network remote
[14:44:42] wagnerrp: i dont know
[14:45:33] wagnerrp: anyway, jamey... you have to give each instance of the frontend a different lircrc
[14:45:43] jamey: ok so the default remote works, its just the second one i am having the trouble with
[14:45:50] wagnerrp: each with a different 'remote' line in each button config
[14:46:13] wagnerrp: to tell it to only receive commands from its dedicated remote
[14:46:20] jamey: i see where you goinging, is that the only way?
[14:46:39] wagnerrp: only way that i know of

[14:49:39] sid3windr: I don't think it works :P
[14:50:18] clever: sid3windr: ive been able to use the lirc_i2c and lirc_serial drivers at once
[14:50:24] clever: i just ran 2 lircd's
[14:50:37] clever: mythfrontend used 1, and irsend used the 2nd
[14:51:07] clever: i never found a way to tell mythfrontend to use a certain unix socket, so i just made that one the receiver
[14:51:16] clever: not shure how to handle 2 receivers
[14:51:21] jamey: I see thats the problem
[14:51:38] jamey: clever: thats the problem
[14:51:50] clever: you may be able to route both lircd's into a single master one, thru the network/slave thingy
[14:52:03] clever: then you have both remotes spewing codes from a single unix socket
[14:52:19] jamey: you know in setup! where it has enable remote network and gives you a port?
[14:52:31] clever: thats something just for mythtv
[14:52:37] clever: has nothing to do with lirc
[14:52:51] wagnerrp: that is a socket/telnet interface for remotely controlling the frontend over the network
[14:52:55] jamey: damn no wonder when i change it it doesnt work
[14:53:44] jamey: so basically mythtv hardcoded in the default port.
[14:54:51] wagnerrp: pretty much
[14:54:58] wagnerrp: theres almost never any reason to change them
[14:55:10] clever: if you could run both lirc drivers with the lircd --connect thing, you would have a single master daemon which can receive both remotes
[14:55:14] wagnerrp: so no one bothered to make them variable and put them in the GUI to change
[14:56:08] GreyFoxx: what port is harcoded?
[14:56:34] jamey: GreyFoxx: the lircd port
[14:56:39] clever: lirc unix socket
[14:57:38] GreyFoxx: Ahhh, I got around that by a 1 line change in the FE to let you specify the connecting program name via a setting in the database. So my LCD FE is "mythtv", my Projector is "Projector" and both run off the same single instance of lirc
[14:58:27] GreyFoxx: I should update that for trunk and commit it
[14:58:41] jamey: yeah look at my original question
[14:58:56] jamey: Hello, lets say i have two monitors on one computer both running mythtv and i have two remotes Ir, I want one remote to control one monitor and the other to control the other one. I already test both remotes with (irw /dev/lircd and irw /dev/lircd1) and that works. However getting the second ir to work independtly is the problem

[15:00:27] GreyFoxx: Ahhh,
[15:00:28] clever: jamey: using lircd --connect, i think you can inject the events from 1 lircd into a 2nd
[15:00:45] clever: then you have both remotes working on what appears to be 1 lircd (and 1 unix socket)

[15:01:09] ** stuarta looks for flying pigs **
[15:01:11] GreyFoxx: It's really a matter of making mythtv use a custom program name for the second instance and configure lirc accordingly
[15:01:17] clever: jamey: each lircd would have a different name for its remote, in the config
[15:01:25] wagnerrp: jamey: as before, they would have different 'remote' names

[15:01:48] clever: GreyFoxx: wont that just make it posible to share .lircrc?
[15:02:18] GreyFoxx: No, when lirc sends events to the connected apps, they know which app it's intended for by the "progname"
[15:02:30] j-rod: hm... how's mythtv's handling of stuff from uninput like KEY_VIDEO, KEY_MUSIC, KEY_PLAY, etc...?
[15:02:32] GreyFoxx: so mythtv 1 is "mythtv" mythtv 2 is "otherprog"
[15:02:51] GreyFoxx: then you can have seperate .lircrc's, and so on
[15:03:21] j-rod: lirc is both a joy to tinker with and the bane of my existence at the same time

[15:04:55] wagnerrp: i hope you have a fair amount of power behind this thing
[15:05:24] jamey: yeah
[15:05:26] GreyFoxx: clever: Actually I run them as seperate users with seperate lircrc's.
[15:05:48] clever: GreyFoxx: yeah, so that patch doesnt sound like its actualy needed for anything
[15:05:57] GreyFoxx: but I do leave the name in lircrc as "mythtv"
[15:06:12] clever: you can have prog = mythtv in both, and just referer to buttons on a different remote
[15:06:15] GreyFoxx: it's when the app, being mythfe, registers with lircd it identifies itself with a progname
[15:06:34] GreyFoxx: yeah but myth must know to use the altername name. Forget the lircrc
[15:06:51] clever: why does it matter what name you connect to lircd as?
[15:06:58] GreyFoxx: *sigh*
[15:07:14] clever: i thought it just dumbly informed the client about every button press
[15:07:18] stuarta: now i understand lirc a bit more
[15:07:27] GreyFoxx: I'm not in the mood to explain this. I have work to do and did not intend to be drug into a lirc howto
[15:07:41] clever: ok
[15:07:55] jamey: GreyFoxx thanks for the time though!
[15:08:46] GreyFoxx: I will look at cleaning up that patch and making it's a gui option to configure though

[15:53:42] iamlindoro: anodesni: You did that for the user running the *backend*?
[15:53:58] jamey: wagnerrp: yes but are we talking ones that work with comcast, directv, or dishnetwork
[15:54:13] anodesni: iamlindoro, anyway, I don't want mythtv to record my tv while watching, so could I disable it?
[15:54:14] wagnerrp: directtv/dish... maybe not, but comcast, certainly
[15:54:21] iamlindoro: anodesni: No
[15:54:35] SHADOW_V (SHADOW_V!n=SHADOW_V@c-24-0-8-231.hsd1.nj.comcast.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[15:54:36] iamlindoro: You can control directTV through USB, and dish with IR
[15:54:41] anodesni: iamlindoro, yes, unless that user is 'mythtv'
[15:54:42] iamlindoro: neither is impossible
[15:54:54] wagnerrp: comcast is required to make firewire STBs available
[15:54:58] iamlindoro: anodesni: chmod 777 that directory, you can roll back permissions later
[15:55:08] iamlindoro: just chmod it 777 and try again
[15:55:11] jamey: wagnerrp:you got a model number of one? if its not to much trouble
[15:55:28] iamlindoro: because permission denied means permission denied, and nothing but permission denied
[15:55:35] iamlindoro: which is prediectably... a permissions problem
[15:55:35] wagnerrp: and while they may flag everything protected, meaning mythtv cannot pull video over the firewire, you can at least control it over firewire
[15:55:53] anodesni: iamlindoro, that seems to work
[15:56:11] iamlindoro: anodesni: So, as previously mentioned, your backend user doesn't have permissions to the dir
[15:56:21] jamey: that may do!
[15:56:22] iamlindoro: or didn't until you chmod'ed it
[15:56:30] anodesni: hmm, strange
[15:56:39] clever: ls -ltrh /recordingfolder
[15:56:45] iamlindoro: It's not strange, it's that you don't know who is running the backend process
[15:56:48] clever: youll see what user the newest files are owned by
[15:57:20] javatexan: wagnerrp: so then you capture like normal and use the firewire to control....hmmmmm.....interesting. I have this SA 3250HD just lying around...I wonder?
[15:57:54] anodesni: it is 'mythtv' user, so I guess i have to add 'myhttv' user to my group then
[15:58:13] wagnerrp: javatexan: if the firewire isnt activated, you can usually swap it out for one that is functional
[15:58:33] wagnerrp: and if your cableco claims not to know what youre talking about, you can throw the FCC regs at them
[15:59:09] ** iamlindoro chuckles at "mythvideo autolevel script" in the wiki **

[16:08:27] javatexan: wagnerrp: so I guess the channels coming out of that 3250hd from the cable out would be decrypted at that point, so any HD capture card should work?
[16:09:05] iamlindoro: javatexan: Doesn't work that way
[16:09:15] wagnerrp: javatexan: the analog outputs would be decrypted for obvious reasons
[16:09:23] wagnerrp: the firewire output *may* be decrypted
[16:09:34] wagnerrp: it all depends on if the cableco flags that program as copy protected
[16:09:53] iamlindoro: The outputs of set top boxen (except for firewire) are all analog, you can't capture the output of a STB with a digital tuner... the *only* HD analog output you can capture is Component, and the only device for that is the HD-PVR
[16:09:54] wagnerrp: if it is copy protected, it gets decrypted, and then re-encrypted
[16:10:03] iamlindoro: and the HD-PVR only works with trunk
[16:10:09] javatexan: I know their firewire is encrypted...tried that
[16:10:13] SHADOW_V: hmm i think afew lowly mythtv users should go around the country working for cableco and switching off encryption on everything
[16:10:47] wagnerrp: im sure that would only end in tears

[16:12:53] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux1: I heard that as well, and that rolling back to the 180 series fixed it, was a users list discussion IIRC

[16:33:16] javatexan: so if I got a HDhomerun, would that work? how would the control work on that? Let's say I went with a HDhomerun with 2 STB as inputs. How would it work from there. Does that mean that the HDHomerun would handle dealing with the STBs and Mythtv only works with HDHomerun?
[16:33:30] wagnerrp: javatexan: it wouldnt
[16:33:33] SHADOW_V: say wha

[17:05:51] wagnerrp: you could make it fairly large, and fairly quiet
[17:06:01] wagnerrp: sucks in the bottom and/or top
[17:06:07] wagnerrp: blows out the back over the big heatsink
[17:06:09] CyberKnet: That's what I was just wondering... if you could scale that up to ~120 or 150mm
[17:06:35] wagnerrp: and then run heatpipes or water cooling to your high power componants
[17:06:56] CyberKnet: Well, in that form factor (we're talking about what, 1.5" high?), or in the small nettop box form factor, I hope someone comes out with something reasonable soon.
[17:07:05] wagnerrp: you could have some fairly beefy stuff in there, and still cool quietly
[17:07:21] wagnerrp: probably 2", youve got to have room for the standard IO panel
[17:07:44] CyberKnet: even 2" would be largely unobtrusive.
[17:07:52] wagnerrp: you could probably fit one expansion card in there with a riser
[17:08:16] CyberKnet: You could probably get it into 1RU ... 1.719"
[17:08:59] wagnerrp: now youre going to have a chunk of metal for the heatsink
[17:09:06] wagnerrp: so its not going to be particularly cheap
[17:09:20] wagnerrp: but $200 for one of these HTPC cases is already pretty common
[17:09:37] CyberKnet: With that large of an area to dissipate, would the chunk of metal have to be copper though? I would think it could be aluminum...
[17:10:05] CyberKnet: that should bring the price down *some* ... but not to "cheap" levels.
[17:10:18] wagnerrp: theres almost no reason to ever need copper
[17:10:22] wagnerrp: at most, you would have that for the base
[17:10:26] CyberKnet: Plus with the kind of low volume runs we're talking about, it would probably need to be custom milled.
[17:10:42] CyberKnet: which I suppose would negate the copper savings.
[17:10:59] wagnerrp: nah, you just get a couple 1U server coolers and chop them up
[17:11:21] wagnerrp: theyre usually designed exactly for this kind of setup
[17:11:34] CyberKnet: I wonder if there is a custom heatpipe provider out there that isn't too expensive.
[17:12:00] wagnerrp: heatpipes are cheap, you just have to be careful when bending them

[17:16:57] javatexan: so I am guessing that there are rule reasons why the capture cards don't seem to capture the signal destined for the HDtv via coaxial. It seems like that would be one of the easiest to capture since all HDtvs have to understand it.
[17:17:39] CyberKnet: javatexan: Who connects their STB to their TV via coax these days?
[17:18:27] javatexan: ah....gotcha
[17:18:31] meshe: javatexan: analog capture cards will accept that fine if the STB is outputting the signal on coax
[17:18:31] javatexan: true
[17:18:33] wagnerrp: a 'capture card' implies analog capture via RCA/S-Video/composite
[17:18:50] wagnerrp: STBs do not output a signal that can be received by a digital tuner
[17:19:02] CyberKnet: If you're modulating a decoded signal onto coax, you're going to be looking at soem pretty terrible picture quality
[17:19:31] javatexan: yep...
[17:19:35] wagnerrp: i believe there was one STB that did include an ATSC modulator about a decade ago
[17:19:41] wagnerrp: but i dont remember what happened to it
[17:19:43] javatexan: lol
[17:19:45] meshe: too many conversions going in with coax too, digital (STB) -> analog (coax) -> digital (capture card)
[17:19:57] CyberKnet: There's just no call for it these days. TVs without RCA inputs are few and far between
[17:20:30] wagnerrp: not to mention modulated signal from your STB is going to be the worst quality method of getting video into mythtv that you could find
[17:20:41] CyberKnet: wagnerrp: exactly.
[17:21:02] CyberKnet: javatexan: certainly a lot of capture cards will let you capture over RCA, SVideo, or Composite .... but the picture quality is bad – this is why the HDPVR is out there, it gets great quality video from component
[17:21:04] wagnerrp: CyberKnet: there is call for it, rca cannot carry HD
[17:21:32] wagnerrp: although the real call for it would be in home video distribution
[17:21:36] AndyCap: depends what you mean by RCA. component or composite.
[17:21:39] javatexan: so most captures will be doing component/svideo/maybe optical audio and maybe HDMI, I guess.
[17:21:47] wagnerrp: there are a number of people who have analog systems set up
[17:22:00] wagnerrp: but there is no way for them to swap out the hardware for digital
[17:22:06] CyberKnet: AndyCap: Given that I specified COmposite separately, you can go ahead and assume I meant component by RCA.

[17:22:42] wagnerrp: but instead, the only option is commercial headend equipment for several thousand a piece
[17:22:44] AndyCap: CyberKnet: yes, but from what wagnerrp replied that was somewhat uncear
[17:22:53] AndyCap: unclear..
[17:23:19] javatexan: thats what I need....headend equipment...LOL
[17:24:08] CyberKnet: javatexan: It's not *that* far out of the question if you want to feed your whole house

[17:24:49] FunkyELF: anyone have an ion based mythbox? No PCI slots so it'd have to be a USB based tuner
[17:24:51] wagnerrp: its all either the size you find in video cards and slot coolers, and bit industrial ones
[17:24:56] javatexan: I have one backend and 4 fe
[17:25:06] CyberKnet: wagnerrp: co-opt one from a weed trimmer attachment, and scale it back :P
[17:25:49] CyberKnet: FunkyELF: I'd be more concerned about playback than recording.
[17:25:55] javatexan: right now I get all my stuff from pytivo, I keep looking at doing it all via mythtv directly, but it never seems to fit just right
[17:26:19] FunkyELF: CyberKnet, has HDMI, and is supposed to do 1080p
[17:26:34] javatexan: usually because of something backwards that CATv is doing
[17:26:44] CyberKnet: FunkyELF: Not the output, I am talking about decoding whatever you capture.
[17:27:06] CyberKnet: You're working with at best a 1.6Ghz dual core ATOM, and ffmpeg isn't multithreaded yet.
[17:27:08] FunkyELF: CyberKnet, right...have you read about the ion platform? It is supposed to do that
[17:27:30] FunkyELF: CyberKnet, it uses vdpau or something. Its not an intel card its an nvidia card
[17:27:54] CyberKnet: FunkyELF: IF you run mythtv trunk, you could use VDPAU, but that's really only worthwhile when your MPEG stream is pristine.
[17:28:07] CyberKnet: The moment you have stream issues, all bets are off.
[17:31:23] CyberKnet: FunkyELF: Yes, I have read about the ION platform. I am very excited about it, and would very much like to use something with ION, but so far I haven't seen anythign that could guarantee software-based playback.
[17:32:19] FunkyELF: CyberKnet, so playback of things downloaded off the net would be okay because they are "pristine"?
[17:32:31] FunkyELF: CyberKnet, but playback of mpeg streams from a capture card may not be?

Is this possible? I have read the FAQ's etc and get an idea that this is the general idea, just wanted to confirm ;-)
[19:01:29] Josh_Borke: Dunfy: i stream my mythtv recordings to my playstation
[19:01:30] Josh_Borke: some anyway...
[19:01:46] wagnerrp: the 360s used to not support anything mythtv would capture
[19:01:51] wagnerrp: i dont know if that is still the case
[19:02:02] Josh_Borke: then again, i'm only capturing mpeg stuff
[19:02:53] Dunfy: i understand it has a UPNP client which i think the 360 should be compatible with
[19:03:18] wagnerrp: mythtv has a UPNP server, the 360 is a UPNP client
[19:03:25] wagnerrp: however 'universal' is a relative term
[19:03:26] Dunfy: sorry yea
[19:03:48] Dunfy: so when i set up mythTv, i'll have a couple of sources, sky from capture card, and movies from another filestore can you setup multiple sources mythtv can use ?
[19:03:54] wagnerrp: clients pick and choose what formats they actually want to play
[19:04:09] Dunfy: not entirely sure how you interact with the 'backend'
[19:04:09] wagnerrp: and if the server cant automatically transcode to what the client wants to play, youre SOL
[19:04:10] Josh_Borke: Dunfy: mythtv supports video files
[19:04:22] wagnerrp: add in the fact that the 360 was never intended to be a UPNP client
[19:04:27] wagnerrp: but is really just an MCE extender

[19:44:24] Defense: Hi, where can i set the IP of the backend server? (i have a client which always tries to connect to 127.0.0.1 to find the backend but the backend is on an other computer..)
[19:46:04] iamlindoro: in mythtv-setup on the backend
[19:46:37] scart (scart!n=scart@204.147.92.185) has quit ("Leaving")
[19:46:59] GreyFoxx: and mythtv-setup on the frontend
[19:47:29] GreyFoxx: but yes, on the backend make sure master backend is set properly
[19:47:35] Defense: iamlindoro: but on the frontend i have no mythfrontend because the rpm has no dependencies and everything else seems to run fine?
[19:47:41] iamlindoro: well, you don't run mythtv-setup on the frontend :)
[19:47:52] GreyFoxx: I do :)
[19:47:58] Defense: backend is running fine... the frontend on the backend machine is working
[19:48:04] iamlindoro: GreyFoxx: What for? There's nothing pertinent to the frontend in it
[19:48:11] Ryushin (Ryushin!i=proxy@windwalker.openinnovations.com) has quit ("Client exiting")
[19:48:54] Defense: the funny thing is, that my notworking-frontend knows that the database is on the other server but it still searches for the backend on 127....
[19:49:01] iamlindoro: Defense: "but on the frontend I have no mythfrontend" does not compute
[19:49:18] Defense: arg :/
[19:49:35] Defense: on the notworking-machine (eeepc) i have no mythtv-setup
[19:49:39] iamlindoro: The only IP address that is set on the frontend is the IP of the DB server, not of the backend
[19:49:49] iamlindoro: Like I said, you don't run mythtv-setup on the frontend
[19:49:56] GreyFoxx: iamlindoro: To set the frontends slave backend IP/info/SG's :)
[19:49:56] Defense: i didn't
[19:50:06] iamlindoro: The backend IP is set in *one* place, on the backend itself
[19:50:11] iamlindoro: frontends get the *DB* IP
[19:50:20] iamlindoro: GreyFoxx: Then it's not just a frontend any more :)
[19:50:44] Defense: so if i want to run a frontend on the not-master-backend-server i have to install a slave-backend?
[19:50:49] iamlindoro: No
[19:50:57] iamlindoro: You are asking the wrong question
[19:50:57] GreyFoxx: Defense: No, that's for more advanced features
[19:51:03] Defense: ok
[19:51:06] GreyFoxx: BUT YES YOU SHOULD ALWAYS INSTALL EVERYTHING
[19:51:07] GreyFoxx: oops
[19:51:09] GreyFoxx: caps
[19:51:16] iamlindoro: Frontends get the DB IP set, not the backend
[19:51:25] iamlindoro: and that's set in mysql.txt and/or config.xml
[19:51:40] Defense: hm mom i will poste the console output..
[19:51:44] CyberKnet: THAT LOOKED LIKE A LOT OF FUN
[19:51:52] CyberKnet: hmmm. Not as much fun as it looked like.
[19:51:53] iamlindoro: From there, the Frontend connects to the DB server and in turn gets the backend IP from it
[19:52:19] Defense: iamlindoro: ahhh...
[19:52:27] Defense: now i think i understand
[19:53:57] iamlindoro: So, the short answer is check ~/.mythtv/config.xml and mysql.txt and get the correct IP in there
[19:54:11] iamlindoro: This is the one and only place a frontend looks for its DB connection information
[19:54:33] iamlindoro: If it then still tries to connect to the backend on 127.0.0.1, then your problem is backend configuration, not frontend configuration
[19:54:34] Defense: iamlindoro: THX (sometimes reading the tooltips could prevent problems :-/ )
[19:54:53] iamlindoro: In which case you'll go to the backend, run mythtv-setup, and set backend IP there, which is the one and only place it exists
[19:54:55] iamlindoro: np
[19:56:01] Defense: iamlindoro: great support :) works fine :D

[19:59:35] dhw: I wanted to switch to vlc instead of mplayer, is it a common issue for vlc to leave xvideo window open after closing vlc?
[20:01:47] iamlindoro: Ask in #videolan?
[20:01:59] iamlindoro: As we support neither here
[20:02:13] meshe: why not switch to Internal ?
[20:02:24] iamlindoro: Indeed, that's the "right" answer
[20:02:29] meshe: has worked better for me than both vlc or mplayer
[20:02:33] dhw: I thought maybe it was a mythtv issue
[20:02:50] dhw: I have never had the issue before, but I will ask there
[20:02:53] iamlindoro: dhw: We don't have any control over the bahevior of either
[20:03:14] iamlindoro: Unless one has a really compelling reason to do otherwise, Myth's internal player should be used
[20:03:21] dhw: I had issues with mplayer also, it seems to all be related to mythtv or well
[20:03:30] dhw: maybe mythbuntu I should say
[20:03:36] ** meshe wishes that mythbuntu would default to Internal **
[20:03:50] dhw: you like Internal?
[20:03:57] iamlindoro: dhw: No issue having to do with Mplayer or vlc will ever have anything to do with myth
[20:04:01] meshe: has worked better for me than both vlc or mplayer
[20:04:26] dhw: yes, I just thought you might be aware of the issue, sorry to bother you.
[20:04:31] iamlindoro: unless you consider putting the wrong command line for your material in to be a myth problem-- I personally do not. The one and only thing myth can do with those players is spawn them using the command line the user provides
[20:04:36] meshe: internal allows you to fix audio sync with a couple of key presses
[20:04:51] meshe: it allows you to adjust the time stretch

[20:06:19] dhw: but, I should have known that my issue was not mythtv related, don't count that against me.
[20:07:05] meshe: Internal is the only player that's not externally launched, any other player myth is just passing the filename to an external program

[20:12:55] dhw: aye
[20:13:10] dhw: it only shows up after you enter in the correct mythvideo settings in the setup
[20:13:12] kormoc: I like how all three of us said differently...

[20:19:28] iamlindoro: Wonder what neat stuff you will come up with for mythweb for the other metadata :)
