[03:05:37] wagnerrp: Shadow__X: yeah... i have no idea
[03:06:33] Shadow__X: it only happens to that one channel which is weird because i can record all the other channels that share that multiplex fine at teh same time but that channel wants to record from qam and from stb at teh same time
[03:06:43] Shadow__X: i tried to cancel one recording but it cancels both
[03:07:17] Shadow__X: unless i am missing something the channel is setup like the others and they work fine

[04:18:35] elmojo: however MPEG-2 and H.264 broadcasts sometimes have telecine'd material that need to honor the repeat fields/frames
[04:20:12] elmojo: i have a patch for that but the H.264 parser in current trunk doesn't report repeat frames – however, the latest ffmpeg code does report them so when it's sync'd I can add support then

[04:26:45] thedarkone: well my nvidia one sucked
[04:27:11] ** cesman agrees w/ kormoc **

[04:27:37] wagnerrp: how did it suck?

[04:27:52] ** cesman agrees w/ kormoc **

[04:30:50] thedarkone: on box it says it does
[04:31:00] wagnerrp: on the box, it expects youre using windows
[04:32:10] Dagmar: Amazing how a piece of cardboard's opinion carries more weight than a live person
[04:32:40] thedarkone: well i go back to onboard graphics
[04:32:47] thedarkone: that a nvidia
[04:32:52] wagnerrp: what model?
[04:35:05] thedarkone: never mind it a intel one
[04:35:47] wagnerrp: unless you want decode acceleration, and assuming it has the outputs you want, intel graphics will do just fine
[04:36:09] wagnerrp: i assume those things have enough power for the opengl painter?
[04:36:41] thedarkone: well i want just for dvds and hd

[04:40:27] thedarkone: so it a hunk of junk
[04:40:27] wagnerrp: at least under windows, (non-mt) ffmpeg doesnt seem to handle VC-1 slicing
[04:40:32] wagnerrp: that processor wont cut it
[04:40:36] wagnerrp: better stick with the nvidia
[04:40:51] Dagmar: GMA 3100 chipset won't do any hardware accellerated decoding that I know of
[04:40:51] thedarkone: so quad core 2.4 won't work
[04:40:59] thedarkone: and 8 gigs of ram
[04:41:00] wagnerrp: you dont have a quad core
[04:41:16] thedarkone: i have a 775 quad core
[04:41:24] wagnerrp: or you linked to the wrong computer
[04:41:42] Dagmar: Well, HP has two options for that board that would be quad-processor, but this isn't currently an operation tht can be multi-threaded so the numer of cores doesn't matter.
[04:42:08] thedarkone: i see
[04:42:10] wagnerrp: whats the point of linking to a page if its not actually going to show the specs on your computer?
[04:42:15] thedarkone: time to buy a new pc
[04:42:25] Dagmar: wagnerrp: That's as much as he could be bothered to do
[04:42:28] wagnerrp: no, just time to stick that nvidia card back in
[04:42:30] thedarkone: well it same mother board
[04:42:48] wagnerrp: or wait a couple months and hope ffmpeg-mt gets sync'd in
[04:43:27] kormoc: so rather then spend the time to fix the current box with the nvidia card, you're gonna buy a whole new computer eh?
[04:43:41] thedarkone: yeap
[04:43:49] kormoc: seems wasteful
[04:43:59] wagnerrp: want to throw some gravy my way?
[04:44:00] kormoc: as what are you gonna buy that's gonna 'fix' it?
[04:44:23] thedarkone: well a dual core
[04:44:36] kormoc: so a dual core is better then a quad core?
[04:44:37] thedarkone: gigabyte mother board
[04:44:39] ** kormoc blinks **
[04:44:47] kormoc: what's that gonna get you?
[04:45:07] wagnerrp: about 10 minutes of video
[04:45:12] thedarkone: more pci slots and a agp slot
[04:45:17] wagnerrp: AGP???
[04:45:31] thedarkone: well nivida is a agp
[04:45:39] kormoc: oh lord
[04:45:44] wagnerrp: the 9500 is an AGP?
[04:45:45] thedarkone: and ati is a pci express x16
[04:45:50] thedarkone: yes
[04:45:51] kormoc: how do you have a quad core with a agp slot?
[04:46:02] thedarkone: it don't
[04:46:10] wagnerrp: please, show us this mythical 9500 AGP
[04:46:11] kormoc: then how did you use the nvidia card?
[04:46:17] thedarkone: it only has pci express x16
[04:46:38] thedarkone: i used it in my old pc
[04:46:56] wagnerrp: do you mean a Radon 9500?
[04:47:00] wagnerrp: Radeon

[04:47:27] wagnerrp: or maybe a GeForce 5900?
[04:47:53] wagnerrp: agp
[04:50:48] thedarkone: okay might been i bought at staples
[04:51:31] wagnerrp: well PNY will certainly have it on their website
[04:52:32] wagnerrp: this one? http://www3.pny.com/9500-GT-1024MB-PCIe-P2812C331.aspx
[04:52:42] kormoc: oh hey look, nvidia claims it's only pci-e! http://www.nvidia.com/object/product_geforce_9500gt_us.html
[04:53:06] wagnerrp: oh snap!
[04:53:46] kormoc: plus the 9500 gt was released in July 29, 2008, so the oldest card is less then a year old
[04:54:49] kormoc: plus, it never supported a gig of memory, only 256 megs
[04:54:58] thedarkone: yeap it is a pcie
[04:55:07] Dagmar: What, someone's claiming they have an AGP 9xxx card or something?
[04:55:26] kormoc: yes
[04:55:29] kormoc: well, he was
[04:55:39] kormoc: now he's claiming it's a pci-e card that was used in a agp slot
[04:55:40] thedarkone: they look damn same
[04:55:54] wagnerrp: in that theyre both slots, yes
[04:55:56] Dagmar: thedarkone: Wow dude. Put your screwdriver away before you catch something on fire
[04:56:24] thedarkone: lmfao
[04:56:30] wagnerrp: other than that, the length, pin styles, and keying are completely different
[04:56:36] kormoc: http://www.tomshardware.se/grafikkort/2004112 . . . ie-cards.jpg
[04:56:40] kormoc: only slightly there
[04:57:02] Dagmar: Hey now guys... People who don't regularly open PCs can reasonably make that mistake, IMHO.
[04:57:02] wagnerrp: yeah, pretty hard to mistake one for the other
[04:57:22] Dagmar: If he's not screaming that we're all meanies and so on then it's probably a win
[04:57:31] thedarkone: i don't build pc's all day long
[04:58:01] Dagmar: You don't have to be doing it all day long, but generally folks who've seen more than five of each will recognize them on sight
[04:58:02] thedarkone: it only a 100.00 card
[04:58:07] Dagmar: Unless they work at CompUSA.
[04:58:28] Dagmar: ...those people know to check their little book with the pictures.  ;)
[04:58:34] thedarkone: they all look the same to me

[04:58:54] Dagmar: opmgracist
[04:58:55] wagnerrp: well this issue here is that he had that card in that computer, couldnt get audio to work, and was subsequently saying it was because it was an AGP card

[04:59:15] mchou: hdmi ftw yo!
[04:59:21] Dagmar: Well, how much sound would you expect from an AGP video card in a PCIe slot?
[04:59:23] thedarkone: well nvidia i would lose sound
[04:59:31] Dagmar: ...other than maybe... bzzzzzzzzz-zzzz-zzzzz-zzt...
[04:59:34] mchou: maybe that was why audio didnt work
[04:59:54] wagnerrp: component outputs will not affect sound at all
[05:00:06] thedarkone: i would have to delete xorg.conf file and sound would come back
[05:00:08] Dagmar: thedarkone: That's likely something that can be worked around or simply made to work. Don't sweat that yet
[05:00:26] wagnerrp: recent nvidia cards (8-series +) with DVI/HDMI ports may report that they carry an audio stream
[05:00:46] wagnerrp: and depending on your TV, you may not be able to force it to use the analog audio
[05:00:56] kormoc: all you might have to do is setup the correct soundcard as the primary one...
[05:01:03] thedarkone: it a vizio 32 ince
[05:01:06] thedarkone: lcd
[05:01:39] wagnerrp: if thats the case, theres a howto on the wiki about how to make a custom EDID block to prevent the driver from reporting an audio stream
[05:02:08] thedarkone: well u guys told me to goto alsa
[05:02:10] wagnerrp: and your distro should have a fairly simple method of fixing the analog output
[05:02:13] thedarkone: cheannel

[05:03:07] thedarkone: updated to 1.0.20
[05:03:09] thedarkone: and all
[05:03:23] wagnerrp: updating audio is only necessary if you want to use HDMI audio
[05:03:30] thedarkone: no sound and they said no luck
[05:03:34] wagnerrp: and discrete nvidia cards do no have sound hardware
[05:04:11] thedarkone: dagmar i fixed that problem with nvidia i took it out
[05:04:15] thedarkone: and put in a ati
[05:06:06] Dagmar: OKay, so now you'll be having serious pain then
[05:06:10] Dagmar: ATI and LInux don't get along well
[05:06:41] Dagmar: I think I did at least see HDMI drivers for nVidia mentioned in the kernel I downloaded yesterday tho
[05:06:44] thedarkone: i was looking on web
[05:07:10] thedarkone: and saw that ati put out new drivers
[05:07:32] Dagmar: Yeah but even for people who are good at installing things like that, the ATI drivers are a bitch
[05:07:39] Dagmar: If you get them working, you should feel pleased with yourself.
[05:08:09] thedarkone: well how would u know if they are working lol
[05:09:04] Dagmar: You get no video or hideously corrupted video or spontaneous reboots when they don't.
[05:09:09] Dagmar: Trust me, you'll _know_
[05:09:15] wagnerrp: run glxgears, if its smooth, theyre working
[05:09:23] mchou: lol
[05:10:37] thedarkone: they run fine
[05:11:01] thedarkone: a blue and a red and a green
[05:11:26] thedarkone: no studder
[05:11:39] wagnerrp: run 'xdpyinfo | grep -A50 extensions', see if 'XVideo' is listed
[05:13:16] thedarkone: http://pastebin.com/m9904012
[05:13:30] Dagmar: You have a fast enough machine that with NO video accelleration glxgears should run smoothly
[05:14:02] wagnerrp: and XVideo-MotionCompensation... i didnt think XvMC was working in the ATI drivers
[05:14:19] wagnerrp: are you using the ATI card? or the integrated Intel?
[05:14:26] thedarkone: ati
[05:14:36] Dagmar: He's using hte ATI card or the ATI symbols wouldn't be listed
[05:14:38] kormoc: XvMC doesn't work with ATI
[05:14:48] wagnerrp: right... see them at the top now
[05:15:03] Dagmar: It *might* with this new driver, but it's long odds IMHO
[05:15:34] thedarkone: i will find out soon
[05:15:40] wagnerrp: well if youve got XVideo, youre golden
[05:15:56] wagnerrp: but youre still not going to manage BluRay/HDDVD/HDPVR on that chip
[05:16:03] thedarkone: then it fine
[05:16:06] wagnerrp: not until the ffmpeg-mt stuff comes through anyway
[05:18:21] thedarkone: xvmc in myth runs fine
[05:18:50] wagnerrp: well if it werent working, it would just fall back to Xv
[05:19:05] wagnerrp: and on that chip, it might only be a 5–10% difference in CPU usage
[05:19:34] thedarkone: okay
[05:20:00] wagnerrp: XvMC is only a partial offload of mpeg2
[05:20:19] wagnerrp: and HD MPEG2 decoding is something that chip should do without breaking a sweat
[05:20:27] thedarkone: i do knowest it pauses alot
[05:20:46] wagnerrp: if youve got clock stepping on, it may even stay at low frequency

[05:23:43] Shadow__X: Dagmar,any ideas?
[05:25:15] Dagmar: My best guess is you need to dump the listings and reget both sets, making sure you don't accidentally dupe the channel ID this time
[05:25:31] Dagmar: I *think* sphery would be the man to ask about finesseing that
[05:25:44] Dagmar: I have a very heavy-handed method of dropping channel tables no one likes.  ;)
[05:25:47] Shadow__X: ah alright thanks so i duped one channel
[05:25:50] wagnerrp: he wants the same ID on both channels
[05:26:03] wagnerrp: scifi over firewire, and analog capture
[05:26:04] Dagmar: He does? Okay. I'll take your word for it.
[05:26:16] Shadow__X: the same xmlid 2 different sources qam and stb

[05:26:33] wagnerrp: wait... qam and stb?
[05:26:41] Shadow__X: qam and firewire
[05:26:49] wagnerrp: if you get it over qam, why bother with the stb?
[05:27:04] wagnerrp: or is the qam one only standard definition?

[06:29:34] juski: Via kit was only ever any use for SDTV anyway, when it was of any use
[06:31:12] juski: sooner or later they'll probably wheel something out which can decode real HD like bluray material at silly high bitrates but by the time that happens (and there's linux support for it) it'll be time to go home :D

[06:43:34] juski: 48V is commonly used in telecomms – if they'd aimed for that market...
[06:43:47] wagnerrp: we were looking more at 7kA
[06:43:55] juski: yeeps
[06:44:26] wagnerrp: although realistically, we were hoping for maybe one supply per shelf
[06:44:30] wagnerrp: maybe 100A per unit
[06:44:53] wagnerrp: supplying power to a bunch of pico-psus in the compute nodes
[06:45:08] juski: heh. not impossible to build of course.. just hardly a stock item
[06:45:34] wagnerrp: under full load, our nodes use around 100W each, and thats including the power supply inefficiencies
[06:46:05] wagnerrp: so probably 7A/box, 11 boxes/shelf

[07:08:47] wagnerrp: all the more so with videos moved over to storage groups, the mythweb does not properly put into directories
[07:08:57] juski: hmm. ps reckons MBE still running
[07:10:10] juski: heh. no, it really is still running
[07:10:16] wagnerrp: kormoc's JS usually sorts through it in under a second or two, but occasionally the script gets caught in some loop, and i ether close firefox or wait 5 minutes for it to finish chunking through a couple thousand files
[07:13:10] wagnerrp: although its probably set up such the the FE does the file transfers, right?
[07:13:52] juski: mmmkay. and so onto configuring MFE to use TMDB etc...
[07:16:18] wagnerrp: might be better to try to re-implement that as a user job
[07:16:42] wagnerrp: so it can be offloaded to the backend, rather than having the frontend copy the files over the network, and then copy them back
[07:17:05] wagnerrp: ... i should probably look at the patches first before deciding how they work
[07:19:10] iamlindoro: wagnerrp, It does the copy via the frontend for lack of a better way to do it at the time it was written-- there is some code floating around to move files between storage rgoups, but nothing in trunk yet-- when that make it in, the export will be switched to using it
[07:20:09] juski: wtf? the mythtv wiki page on tmdb looks like a load of gash

[07:21:21] wagnerrp: i thought the tmdb stuff was basically a drop-in replacement for the imdb scripts
[07:21:21] juski: that's not configuring :)
[07:21:52] iamlindoro: I think sphery has done a nice job of giving cut-and-pasteable code that should work for almost anyone
[07:22:07] juski: I think it's misleading
[07:22:37] iamlindoro: I disagree
[07:23:00] iamlindoro: before you run it, your lookups are done with IMDB. After you run it, they're done with TMDB. sounds like configuration to me.
[07:23:01] juski: well, from a dumb user PoV it's good
[07:23:20] juski: a good 'get em working' solution :)
[07:23:41] wagnerrp: well from a knowledgeable user PoV, they dont need that page

[07:33:28] iamlindoro: http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/6428
[07:34:20] wagnerrp: i guess i should brush up on the mythtv python bindings
[07:34:50] wagnerrp: im not one with the perl, im not keen on learning a language for something that will probably be <100 lines of script
[07:35:07] juski: lernin fings can be fun!
[07:36:03] juski: nah this isn't on
[07:36:18] juski: if tmdb.org is so overloaded maybe it's time to look at another way to do this
[07:36:45] wagnerrp: the site is somewhere slow to respond, but API access is surprisingly quick
[07:36:53] wagnerrp: s/somewhere/somewhat/
[07:37:00] juski: let's try running the script manually & see what it spits out
[07:38:26] juski: can't possibly be returning 0 results for the stuff I'm searching on
[07:38:36] wagnerrp: what are you searching for?
[07:38:51] wagnerrp: the search functions leave something to be desired sometimes
[07:39:07] wagnerrp: you often have to have the name exactly as its seen on tmdb
[07:39:08] juski: just common stuff, stuff anybody would reasonably expect to be on tmdb

[07:51:12] gravisan: in the sense you need the filesystem mounted on every frontend in order to access your videos
[07:51:25] juski: gravisan: in 0.22 that will not be the case

[07:52:34] wagnerrp: but there is currently no writeback support

[07:52:36] juski: wagnerrp: tried all kinds of search strings – no response at all
[07:52:51] wagnerrp: so those folders have to be mounted locally to download coverart and such

[10:35:29] juski: you can certainly watch TV with it
[10:35:43] juski: and record TV, and access media & play it
[10:35:44] michael__: ok TV is good
[10:35:54] juski: like the docs at www.mythtv.org say, funnily enough
[10:36:18] michael__: i want to be able to access media through a home network and play it in MythTV too
[10:36:25] juski: as for 'downloaded' media, it doesn't matter where it comes from. you point mythtv at it & it can play it
[10:36:44] juski: one thing it doesn't do is mount remote shares itself
[10:36:51] juski: but other than that...
[10:37:10] michael__: I've got a windows box full of movies, i want Myth to be able to access it
[10:37:11] juski: i.e. all file paths have to be 'local' so you have to mount shares yourself
[10:37:36] michael__: and play that stuff and for all of that to be in the libirary
[10:37:56] michael__: ok i'm not great at this stuff, do you have a resource i can read that can explain it to me?
[10:38:10] michael__: i don't understand "mount shares yourself"
[10:38:42] juski: oh God
[10:38:59] juski: well, when you access a network share on another machine you're 'mounting' it
[10:39:37] juski: what you can't do in mythtv is add a path like 192.168.1.100\videos\movies
[10:40:11] michael__: so i can't just turn on Myth TV and have it access a local net work for media?
[10:40:18] juski: you have to use SAMBA, NFS or similar to 'mount' a share onto a directory you create which will then act as if it's local
[10:40:22] juski: no
[10:40:35] juski: mythtv != file browser
[10:40:40] michael__: oh ok, i've kinda used samba before
[10:41:20] juski: FWIW, if you can get XBMC to work, just use that
[10:41:28] michael__: so then if samba gives me a directory where that information will be avalable to my Mythbox it'll be ok
[10:41:28] juski: though it doesn't have any TV features
[10:41:34] juski: yup
[10:41:55] michael__: yeah well the TV features will be coming later, this is a step by step process for me
[10:42:08] juski: anyway, what mythtv really excels at is *recording* TV as opposed to just passively watching
[10:42:26] michael__: i just got the thing playing DVDs now, so the next thing is getting samba working i guess
[10:42:26] juski: plan your viewing ahead of time & waste less of your life surfing the tripe
[10:43:32] michael__: ok but i want it to do more for me- that's why i'm not sure about MythTV, i think recording TV will be cool, but watching stuff i've alreasy downloaded on a big screen is important
[10:43:49] michael__: it seems to rip DVDs ok too which is good
[10:43:51] juski: downloading TV is *wrong* but anyway...
[10:44:08] michael__: too later
[10:44:09] juski: unless it's 'web tv' of course...
[10:44:30] juski: anyway watching videos on your TV is not an issue so long as your computer can keep up ;-)
[10:44:42] juski: no matter where they've come from
[10:44:49] michael__: anyway do you have a guide on how i can get samba working? and would you even reccommend mythTV to organise all of my videos?
[10:44:55] juski: i.e. so long as your machine is fast enough to play them
[10:45:11] juski: I never recommend anybody use mythtv. that's entirely up to them
[10:45:32] juski: stopped being an advocate quite some time ago
[10:45:35] michael__: do you think MythTV can do what i want it to?
[10:45:39] juski: yes
[10:45:42] michael__: ok
[10:45:55] juski: like it says on the mythtv.org website!
[10:45:57] juski: sheesh

[10:48:14] michael__: i'm thinking of dumping Mythbuntu and getting MythTV ontop of Ubuntu
[10:49:11] juski: ooo the harder way
[10:49:45] juski: the issue where mythbuntu isn't recognising you've added another HDD is probably that you've not TOLD it to use that drive yet
[10:50:02] michael__: this seems like the harder way at the moment – Mythbuntu is so stripped back i'll have to install printer drivers, PDS readers, this IRC client blah
[10:50:08] juski: it won't just go "hey look, I see another hard disk. Do you want to format it & mount it for you now?"
[10:50:27] juski: man fdisk
[10:50:34] at0m: "oh darn it had already data on it. too late, formatted now"
[10:50:37] michael__: i'm used to Ubuntu finding it for me
[10:50:55] juski: man mkfs
[10:51:33] juski: sure ubuntu can 'find' disks automagically. Getting it to mount em where YOU want it to.. that's something else
[10:52:22] juski: FWIW you might end up putting all your media on the linux box anyway, to make it available 100% of the time. Windows file sharing sucks arse
[10:52:31] at0m: michael__: automatic mounting is nice for a cam, but learn how to do it yourself and properly for internal and network drives. it's easy.
[10:52:45] michael__: ok
[10:52:50] michael__: well how do i start?
[10:52:57] michael__: the local has media on it already
[10:53:06] juski: man fstab
[10:53:08] michael__: it's an IDE drive
[10:53:21] juski: man fstab
[10:53:59] at0m: google howto's for fstab, smb.conf
[10:54:20] juski: ubuntu even has a nice easy GUI tool for both of them
[10:54:34] juski: which you can no doubt find out about in Ubuntu's community documentation
[10:54:52] juski: but I always opt to do things manually anyway
[10:55:04] michael__: yeah that's why i'd rather instal ubuntu and start over
[10:55:22] michael__: mythbuntu is too stripped back and io
[10:55:24] juski: you could just install ubuntu-desktop on top I guess
[10:55:36] juski: or kubuntu-desktop if that's your fetish
[10:55:49] michael__: i'd be worried that'll break something
[10:56:07] michael__: Gnome is fine for me
[10:56:15] juski: doing that should *not* affect a mythtv install
[10:56:37] juski: not as much as flattening a disk would, certainly ;)

[15:37:05] nambo: sure, within the same version number
[15:37:08] gbee: depends if you do a simple package upgrade, or a CD/DVD based upgrade – every distro changes around their preferred software or configuration with a new release, a straight package upgrade doesn't always bring the benefits of those changes
[15:37:21] nambo: but going from 4.3 to 5.0 was a pain
[15:37:25] sid3windr: :|
[15:37:33] stuarta: that was straightforward...
[15:37:40] nambo: gbee: exactly
[15:37:42] sid3windr: I'll venture a guess most of your 10+ years of linux experience was spent reinstalling machines for no reason

[16:19:04] sphery: I loved the movie. The series was 10x better.
[16:19:59] gbee: aye, it was
[16:20:31] sphery: think I may have to post the results of a "study" (like the one that says people enjoy shows more if they have commercials) that says that people enjoy TV more if it has all sorts of warnings/ads/... plastered all over the picture during the show
[16:20:53] sphery: that way, everyone else can suffer with me
[16:20:56] gbee: warnings? ads?
[16:21:25] sphery: yeah, it's very unusual for me to have a TV show where there's nothing overlayed on top of the picture during the show
[16:21:48] sphery: and, since we don't have any nice MHEG stuff, it's /in/ the frame from the show (not a separate stream)
[16:22:45] meshe: one of our channels does that, they usually have 15–20% of the frame covered with station junk
[16:23:10] sphery: they put up warnings or breaking news that take up anywhere from a small bar 1/8 of the height or width of the screen (scroller) to 3/4 of the screen (where they downsize the tv show picture and put it in a corner of the screen with all sorts of news/video/... in the rest
[16:23:29] GreyFoxx: Or adds for other shows on that network... I hate that
[16:23:31] gbee: only thing we have to put up with is channel logos, even that is annoying and unfortunately a growing trend (5/10 years ago they didn't exist, you were trusted to know which channel you were on without constant reminders)
[16:23:33] sphery: and then there's the animated ads in the bottom of the show. The Family Guy even did a gag on that one

[16:24:36] wombo: Its not on TV, but I HATE the bright flashing ads on websites so much that I either leave the page or cover that bit up with my hand

[16:25:41] wombo: yeah but then you miss our on other stuff
[16:26:26] gbee: the thing which _really_ bothers me, another new trend, announcers talking over the credits and 'credit squeezing' where they reduce them to an unreadable size to display the schedule or trailers of upcoming programs
[16:27:02] sphery: I have a separate profile with flash and start my flash-enabled firefox with -no-remote, so I can have 2 separate instances (general use and just-to-see-some-flash-garbage instances)

[16:40:19] CyberKnet: sphery: Learned that one the hard way.
[16:40:36] wombo: dlonie: but if you would prefer a certain channel set its priority higher
[16:40:51] sphery: dlonie: to fix your broken "this channel" rules, change them to "any channel" rules. If you still want broken rules, then, do a "find other showings" and select the showing and change the rule to a "this channel" rule
[16:41:28] sphery: dlonie / wombo : really, you should /never/ set channel priorities unless you read /all/ of section 12.6 of the HOWTO (and, really, you should read all of section 12)
[16:41:33] CyberKnet: Hmm... I didn't know about that workaround
[16:41:38] CyberKnet: good to know.
[16:41:41] wombo: IE in Aus we symalcast the same shows on SD and HD (most of the time) so I set the HD to have a higher priority set for it
[16:41:41] sphery: once you do, you'll realize that you shouldn't use channel priorities
[16:41:52] CyberKnet: although "Any CHannel" is a better work around.
[16:42:23] dlonie: sphery, wombo: Thanks — I'll use the "Any Channel" as much as possible, but I don't want to record every showing of e.g. The Simpsons that airs :)
[16:42:35] sphery: http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-12.html#ss12.6 = why channel (or input or ...) priorities may cause you to miss shows you want to record
[16:42:47] CyberKnet: dlonie: It just makes for a lot of deleting until you get a history
[16:43:17] sphery: dlonie: that's the whole purpose of "Never Record"--teach your Myth box which episodes of The Simpsons you've seen
[16:43:32] dlonie: CyberKnet: true, but then the wife complains about all the clutter in the recordings :)
[16:43:36] sphery: dlonie: or, you can use rules that do new episodes only
[16:43:50] sphery: with never record, there's no deleting :)
[16:44:07] sphery: though there is something to be said for re-watching every episode of The Simpsons
[16:44:18] sphery: (it's amazing how much it's changed--and how much better it used to be)
[16:44:28] dlonie: sphery: That's why I have all the old seasons in MythVideo :-P
[16:44:53] dlonie: Thanks for the ideas — I should be able to get it working now :)

[16:47:42] RDV_Linux: iamlindoro: Could the Upcoming Recordings screen be themed to show graphics as the you did with the Watch Recordings screen?
[16:48:03] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux: Can't be themed for that presently, would need a patch
[16:48:08] iamlindoro: gbee: When you get around to it
[16:48:24] ** sphery wonders how mikp got a DB with indices that shouldn't be there **
[16:48:47] RDV_Linux: It can impact which graphics the new scripts downloads, "recorded" or "scheduled". Thanks for the answer.
[16:49:17] sphery: funny thing, though, is that he did what I was waiting to recommend until he told me how he got the new indices... too bad he didn't fess up about how it got "optimized".
[16:49:20] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux: For my money you'd parse upcoming anyway so that it's waiting there for when the recording starts
[16:49:55] gbee: RDV_Linux: which graphics? posters/banners etc?
[16:49:55] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux: rather than having to wait for the next cron job when you start a recording
[16:50:21] RDV_Linux: I had considered having the script as a user job that downloaded when the recording was complete.
[16:51:18] sphery: daily cron wouldn't be bad
[16:51:25] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux: Could give the option to do either, I suppose, I would like to have them waiting so that I didn't have to wait for it
[16:51:35] sphery: (and, like you said, check at least 24hrs of upcoming)
[16:51:36] dlonie: Is there a rule that only records programs that don't have the "repeat" flag?
[16:51:47] sphery: dlonie: yep

[16:54:36] RDV_Linux: How long would you really wait? The real advantage of downloading for scheduled is that it works for both Watched recordings and a possible future theming of Scheduled Recordings. I think that I will go with Scheduled and be a little bit future proof.
[16:55:06] CyberKnet: argh. Linksys have terrible support. Latest firmware on their website doesn't work in my router "upgrade are fail" and their answer is "old product, out of warranty, limited support ... call us and pay money and we'll help"

[16:55:29] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux: I guess the advantage of doing upcoming + existing parsing is that (in theory) you would *always* have fanart/coverart for all your stuff
[16:55:44] CyberKnet: sphery: Not sure if the wireless is compatible. It's a WRT54GS v2
[16:55:47] sphery: if so, you'll find that either of those kicks the standard linksys firmware's rear end
[16:55:47] iamlindoro: RDV_Linux: As opposed to in progress/recent recordings potentially having nothing
[16:55:50] CyberKnet: I'd go open before dd
[16:55:55] sphery: I like open
[16:56:10] CyberKnet: Tried an openwrt firmware with the same result though ... upgrade are fail
[16:56:11] sphery: but dd seems to be easier for people to start with (better GUI config)
[16:56:30] CyberKnet: does openwrt keep your existing linksys settings when you install it?
[16:56:35] sphery: nope
[16:56:37] kormoc: negative
[16:56:47] CyberKnet: probably not a good idea for me to do that remotely then.
[16:56:49] sphery: it's kind of like installing a new distro rather than upgrading it :)

[16:57:12] wombo: hahaa
[16:57:22] iamlindoro: sphery: which you should always do, right?
[16:57:32] CyberKnet: iamlindoro: it's the better option.
[16:57:33] iamlindoro: sphery: Because I heard from a guy w/ 10 years experience that upgrading doesn't work
[16:57:36] kormoc: iamlindoro, heh, so tell us how you really feel
[16:57:44] iamlindoro: this guy's really smart, he owns his own repair business
[16:57:55] sphery: CyberKnet: looks like WRT54GS 2.0 should work fine. Hard part might be getting the firmware upgrade to work.
[16:57:59] CyberKnet: I took my PC there once. There were no viruses on it when it came back.
[16:58:00] iamlindoro: and is totally like 30 credits away from a 2 year degree

[16:58:40] CyberKnet: I might have to factory reset and then load open

[17:18:33] sphery: did you get my message about how to fix the recording on both sources thign?
[17:18:44] SHADOW_V: oh let me check my other computer
[17:19:16] sphery: 20090625 08:19:57<+sphery> Shadow__X: "this channel" recording rules are based on callsign. So, if you set the exact same callsign for the 2 channels on the different sources, you cannot distinguish between the 2 when created rules. If you want to be able to say "record from this channel /on this source/" you /must/ use different callsigns for the channels.
[17:19:47] sphery: s/when created/when creating/
[17:20:16] SHADOW_V: the only thing i set the same where the xmlid's
[17:20:34] SHADOW_V: or is that what your talking about
[17:20:42] sphery: are you sure that the channel scanner/mythfilldatabase didn't set the callsigns the same?
[17:21:11] sphery: the /only/ way 2 channels are considered the same for the purposes of "this channel" rules is if they have the same callsign
[17:21:24] SHADOW_V: how would i check that because i have other channels setup the way i setup this one and they work fine recording from only one source
[17:21:47] sphery: you can use the channel editor (in mythtv-setup or MythWeb) to see callsigns
[17:21:50] SHADOW_V: how do i check the callsigns
[17:21:51] sphery: and edit them
[17:22:19] sphery: I'm guessing that you have a digital source and an analog source
[17:22:30] SHADOW_V: a stb over firewire and qam
[17:22:39] ** kormoc loves it when sphery is a step ahead of the questions **
[17:22:48] gnome42: Ok, ok .. who added the MythBBQ option? It truly is the mythical convergence box. ;)
[17:23:34] meshe: forget mythbbq, i want mythcoffee and mythbartender
[17:23:40] iamlindoro: Not too far off with the oft-promise mythrecipe
[17:23:45] iamlindoro: er oft-promised
[17:23:51] sphery: the analog source was populated with channel callsigns from SD (using "Fetch channels", which probably just have things like WKMG). The digital source was populated with a scan, so you got whatever callsigns the streams contained. The majority were probably things like WKMG-DT, but one or two may have been without the -DT.
[17:24:10] gnome42: hehe, MythCocktail sounds good!
[17:24:17] SHADOW_V: sphery, yeah
[17:24:21] sphery: there used to be a mythrecipe...
[17:24:38] sphery: someone did promise to update it (and completely change the schema to make it better)

[17:27:19] SHADOW_V: sphery, i am in mythweb setup under tv channel info i have the challsign on numerous channels the same and the rest work
[17:27:28] SHADOW_V: is that no good
[17:27:45] gbee: though touchscreen makes more sense and proximity renders the readability/layout issue moot
[17:28:08] sphery: assuming they have good keybinding support, remotes shouldn't be a problem , but the 10' UI may be helpful (though just how big are these screens that people put in their kitchens?)
[17:28:34] sphery: SHADOW_V: callsign only affects "this channel" rules
[17:29:07] sphery: but it affects all of them--even if you /think/ it doesn't because it just happens to be planning to record from the desired source
[17:29:09] SHADOW_V: hmm so what am i doing wrong then
[17:29:35] SHADOW_V: even if i have 2 different sources it will try to record from both
[17:29:39] sphery: basically, use the same callsign when you want "this channel" rules to apply to multiple channels. Use different callsigns when you want to be able to distinguish between the channels.

[18:03:05] Treito: hello, i have a problem. mythbackend slows down my usb-sticks, but only when i run kde4 (plasma) can anybody help me?
[18:03:29] SHADOW_V1: dont use kde4 plasma
[18:03:42] kormoc: the backend or the frontend?
[18:04:12] Treito: @kormoc the backend
[18:04:48] kormoc: That doesn't seem right, as the backend doesn't do media insert checks or the like
[18:05:31] laga: that question does not seem right at all
[18:05:54] Treito: yes, but it is definitly so, when i kill the backend or i use xfce all is fine, starting plasma decreases the transferrate, killing the backend increases it
[18:06:38] sphery_: if you have the mount points you used for your USB sticks in the MythVideo directory list (or a link to them underneath one of the MythVideo directories), it could be the UPnP server scan that happens every 30 minutes...
[18:06:40] Treito: laga. where is the problem with my question?!
[18:07:24] Treito: sphery, i tried to start mythbackend with --noupnp, but without success
[18:07:45] sphery_: don't know for sure that would stop the scans

[18:15:58] sphery: darn
[18:16:23] meshe: that was cute
[18:16:32] eviltwin: hey. My organisation (large school) is looking at using mythtv to constantly record several channels and then break those channels up into the various programs. Is there a way to do this with Mythtv without having to schedule each show on the channels individually?
[18:16:41] sphery: good thing I chose to do some Myth stuff--I had a feeling that I'd lose power today (FPL is doing inspections in the area)
[18:17:02] kormoc: eviltwin, you can use a power schedule
[18:17:22] sphery: eviltwin: guide data + custom recording rule (a.k.a. power schedule)
[18:17:30] sphery: eviltwin: but /make sure/ you have guide data
[18:17:54] sphery: if it's "local" programming, just make appropriate xmltv files and import them with mythfilldatabase --file...
[18:18:28] laga: huh. i just saw an ad. "tired of reading on your computer screen? *download* our PHP tutorial"
[18:18:43] kormoc: Because pressing print is so much work!
[18:18:56] eviltwin: am I right in saying that it can just fetch the dvb data from the signal itself? (sorry, long time since I've used myth)
[18:19:06] ** kormoc writes all his php on the back of letters and gives it to the interns to type in **
[18:19:09] sphery: yeah, if there's good EIT data, it can use it
[18:19:10] Treito: is there a good alternative to KDE4?
[18:19:11] ** iamlindoro wonders if he's the only one amused after the last exchange that someone named eviltwin showed up **
[18:19:17] iamlindoro: "anything but KDE"
[18:19:19] laga: kormoc: i wish i had an intern ;)
[18:19:25] laga: Treito: KDE 3.5
[18:19:38] iamlindoro: gbee: Font sizes are still in point size, right?
[18:19:39] kormoc: Treito, you already mentioned xfce
[18:20:12] Treito: laga, but KDE4 looks so great...
[18:20:14] sphery: eviltwin: but if it changes too frequently, it may not have the most-current info (i.e. we don't really capture the last-minute delays other than through sheer lucky timing and don't really capture last-minute overruns)
[18:20:18] iamlindoro: and works so ass
[18:20:20] laga: Treito: then use KDE 4?
[18:20:33] kormoc: Treito, then use it and deal with the slow down... there's not much we can really do...
[18:20:48] Treito: kormoc, i cannot get glipper to work
[18:21:04] ** kormoc wonders how that's relatd **
[18:21:08] kormoc: *related
[18:21:27] Treito: kormoc, but there must be a reason why KDE4 und mythbackend slow down the stick
[18:21:34] sphery: iamlindoro: yeah, point sizes... the switch to pixel sizes is pretty major (and would help people who have high-res screens, but not so much low-res/SDTV screens)
[18:21:45] iamlindoro: sphery: thanks
[18:21:49] eviltwin: sphery: I could have sworn there was a standard that would actually inform your set top box that a show was ending/beginning/there are adverts now
[18:22:09] kormoc: eviltwin, not a open standard afaik
[18:22:21] eviltwin: damn
[18:22:22] kormoc: other then EIT which is just show start/end time info
[18:22:25] eviltwin: oh well, not to worry :)
[18:22:35] eviltwin: I doubt that the current system deals with it properly anyway
[18:22:42] at0m: hi, for some reason both my frontends (both debian testing, one 32 and one 64bit) refuse to display OSD. Or, they don't display the text just the frames when pressing 'i' (info) or freeze/hang when pressing 'e' for edit cutpoints
[18:22:55] sphery: and though I think there was something with analog signals, it was not well-deployed and often gave worse information than just going by the schedule
[18:23:03] eviltwin: (I don't manage the current system, I just made the unfortunate mistake of saying "hey, mythtv could do that" while I was in the office)
[18:23:04] at0m: on both machines i find the FreeSans.ttf in /usr/share/mythtv/FreeSans.ttf, and i can't select another font inthe Setup. Anyone have an idea?
[18:23:21] eviltwin: I'm normally the unix guy that babysits the firewall and asterisk :P
[18:23:24] gbee: at0m: log say anything?
[18:23:52] sphery: I can tell you that at least 2 of my local stations are broadcasting signals where the timecode is off by > 10mins. So, on my TV, if I get now/next info at :05, it says it's playing the show that ended 5 minutes ago and next is the show I'm currently watching
[18:23:56] iamlindoro: The only way to win at using FreeSans is to not use FreeSans
[18:24:12] sphery: so trusting the station to get the "we're going to overrun by X minutes" correct is something I"m not willing to do :)
[18:24:44] sphery: at0m: you can /only/ select OSD fonts from those installed in your MythTV share dir: /usr/share/mythtv/
[18:25:01] gbee: eviltwin: actually DVB-T does have a running flag, but for whatever reason we never finished implementing support – it didn't flag adverts though, just signalled that a programme has started/ended
[18:25:05] at0m: gbee: i'm sorry, it'd been like that for weeks, now that i ask and have time to fix, it solved itself
[18:25:10] at0m: checking other machine noe
[18:25:12] at0m: now
[18:25:26] sphery: at0m: the OSD theme can (attempt to--I think it got broken a couple years ago) select a font from the OSD theme directory
[18:26:03] ** sphery wonders what "solved itself" means... Are you saying you see fonts that aren't in your share dir? **
[18:26:33] Treito: kormoc, is there anybody who could help me?
[18:27:26] gbee: janneg: just curious, what happened to your dvb-t run flag experiments?
[18:27:50] sphery: ohh.... I think solved itself means they're displaying the OSD (not that fonts are different)

[20:04:46] CyberKnet: laga/sphery: Well, I suppose I can try the tftp, and if it bricks then I could do the pointy screwdriver method. If all else fails then I just go buy a new wireless router I guess.
[20:05:32] meshe: yeah, buy a GL :)
[20:05:49] laga: or something newer
[20:05:54] laga: maybe one of these nice ASUS ones
[20:06:23] CyberKnet: Haven't seen anything Wireless-N that dd- or openwrt support, have you?
[20:06:41] CyberKnet: almost certain that openwrt doesn't have any supported.
[20:06:53] CyberKnet: dd-wrt less sure, but less inclined to use that firmware.
[20:07:17] CyberKnet: It always seems like you are supposed to pay for it, and there's this general "not open, but not closed" feel about it that I get.
[20:07:22] iamlindoro: Asus 500W
[20:07:34] iamlindoro: N + dd-wrt

[20:09:13] CyberKnet: iamlindoro: Don't suppose you happen to know one that has a gigabit switch in it, eh?
[20:09:20] iamlindoro: It's 100 Mbit
[20:09:24] CyberKnet: yep, saw that.
[20:09:33] iamlindoro: I only know about that one, because I got it recently

[20:11:18] CyberKnet: Firewall Router I was considering a Cisco PIX 501 or 506E
[20:11:34] sphery: though I do use the 4 ports on the wireless ap for 4 extra 100Mbit network ports
[20:12:22] kormoc: if only the mac mini had two network ports...

[20:14:47] ** kormoc has a fios line **
[20:14:57] iamlindoro: an ever-faster FIOS line

[20:15:06] kormoc: 25x15 now ;)
[20:15:15] sphery: yeah, power is the big problem with my setup
[20:15:17] ** CyberKnet kicks kormoc **
[20:15:21] kormoc: but it'd also be the firewall, web server, mysql server, etc
[20:15:25] wagnerrp: oh, well one of the geode boxes would handle that little bandwidth
[20:15:28] sphery: separate hosts doing separate functions
[20:15:34] kormoc: CyberKnet, move somewhere civilized!
[20:15:45] squidly: CyberKnet: get a asa5505, more power and easier configuration

[20:16:19] kormoc: wagnerrp, doubtful the geo could handle the 18 gigs of database...
[20:16:25] CyberKnet: squidly: Got one spare, or $500 to cover the difference?
[20:16:28] CyberKnet: ;)
[20:16:32] squidly: CyberKnet: lol
[20:16:39] kormoc: wagnerrp, if they're public services, it seems sane enough imho for a home box
[20:16:48] wagnerrp: hell, the minimac probably couldnt handle an 18GB database
[20:16:54] squidly: oh yea.. I forget I can get them for $300 here at work ;)

[20:18:37] squidly: (because we resell them)
[20:18:58] CyberKnet: squidly: I may have to buy two of them from you at cost, and sell the second one to cover part of the cost of the first one :P
[20:19:13] squidly: lol
[20:19:20] squidly: CyberKnet: they would KILL me
[20:19:33] kormoc: CyberKnet, worth it

[20:19:52] squidly: CyberKnet: umm.. yea and no ;)
[20:20:01] CyberKnet: aah well, conjecture anyway.
[20:20:23] squidly: yea. I would love to get one. Right now I'm on a 501

[20:23:49] CyberKnet: This thing doesn't look like an ASA-5505 level device... looks much bigger
[20:23:56] CyberKnet: kormoc: basic firewalling and routing
[20:24:15] CyberKnet: liek you'd use an ASA-5505 or PIX-501 for – branch office level hardware
[20:25:00] squidly: or a lower traffic main office
[20:25:10] squidly: I use them on t1 lines
[20:25:34] CyberKnet: Yeah. very low volume routing and firewalling, but enterprise gear, not consumer crud
[20:25:48] kormoc: I think they have the access controller 800 for that role, I've only really used them in core and edge setups
[20:26:10] croppa_ is now known as croppa
[20:26:23] kormoc: squidly, you really haven't used them right, it's nice when you have 10GbE lines to the cores :)
[20:26:42] kormoc: but sadly I've only been able to do that in testing, never productions

[20:28:07] CyberKnet: does the SRX210 have an ethernet WAN option?

[20:37:37] mattygabe: is there a way to "save" an option selected for "video-scan" for a particular channel?
[20:38:27] mattygabe: for instance, channel 33.3 in MythTV needs Progressive scan, or else the picture and all menus drawn by Myth are very buggy, and then other channels require interlacing to produce a clear picture, yet every time go into myth I have to reset these options... can I set default video-scan values and change them later?
[20:39:17] sphery: nope
[20:39:26] sphery: Myth's player always uses the information specified by the video
[20:39:39] sphery: so the best bet is to report the error to the broadcaster
[20:39:42] mattygabe: damn... that's annoying
[20:39:49] mattygabe: sorry for language
[20:39:56] mattygabe: darn... that's annoying

[20:40:44] mattygabe: yes, i have an atsc-only tuner
[20:40:50] sphery: yeah, contact the broadcaster

[20:42:19] mattygabe: so the best way to provide info to the broadcaster is to tell them my situation, and explain what the picture looks like?
[20:44:28] mattygabe: because the problem occurs (at the current moment) on 33.3 and 33.2, but 33.1 is fine on startup... 33.3 is a 24/7 weather channel, so it's the same output all the time
[20:44:37] mattygabe: very interesting
[20:44:43] sphery: mattygabe: you do realize that you can enable a deinterlacer in your playback profile, but when you watch a show from 33.3, you can hit M(enu)|Video Scan|Progressive, right? (I.e. you don't need to change the playback profile each time.)

[20:46:09] sphery: and, it's not surprising that it's their subchannels that are broken (they get far less attention) :)
[20:46:16] mattygabe: i only found out about it after I looked up the myth keyboard shortcuts, and played around with everything in the menu

[20:49:26] mattygabe: msg sphery thanks for your help once again. the more and more I use myth the more I love it, and you're really helping me use the most of its features quickly, so thanks again.

[23:37:05] iamlindoro: Which thread izzat?
[23:37:22] iamlindoro: ah, found him
[23:37:30] iamlindoro: yes, agree
[23:37:56] sphery: yeah, just look for the blue/no-proper-quoting posts
[23:38:44] sphery: doesn't help that someone else top-posted on a already-bottom-posted message, either
[23:39:32] iamlindoro: I've taken to your subtle top post correction
[23:39:38] iamlindoro: Fix it, and mention you did it
[23:40:36] sphery: yeah, figure it serves 2 purposes: 1) reminder and 2) explains why my quote isn't formatted the same as the previous message
[23:41:06] iamlindoro: I'm sick of having Allen Edwards go nuts for a half dozen posts any time anyone overtly mentions it anyway
[23:41:18] sphery: yeah
[23:41:38] iamlindoro: Which serves only to produce gems like "everyone should use gmail" and "we should revisit this archaic policy"
[23:41:48] iamlindoro: I *do* use gmail and I don't like top posting

[23:42:29] sphery: as far as top vs bottom posting, who cares in the end, but it's kind of like driving--if everyone else on the road drives on the right side, you should probably do the same. When you go to London, though, ...
[23:42:33] ** MythLogBot slaps MarkT with a posting rule trout on behalf of theworld... **
[23:43:15] iamlindoro: someone had to work to make that trout happen
[23:43:17] iamlindoro: impressive
[23:43:50] iamlindoro: Maybe I need to get a phantom nick that I can do that with...
[23:43:59] sphery: how come I no longer see the !trout line? I used to see that, and now I don't always?
[23:44:07] iamlindoro: /msg mythlogbot
[23:44:12] sphery: ahhh
[23:44:20] sphery: don't you mean:

[23:46:05] ** MythLogBot slaps sphery with a you are missing the channel trout on behalf of TheWorld... **
[23:46:34] sphery: (I was referring to the accidental in-channel msg from before...)
[23:46:36] ** MythLogBot slaps iamlindoro with a and no ! trout on behalf of TheWorld... **
[23:47:46] iamlindoro: Why... the channel ghost was just ol' man kormoc all along!
[23:48:00] iamlindoro: And he would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you meddling kids!
[23:48:06] kormoc: Indeed!
[23:48:23] sphery: Back to the Mystery Machine!
[23:48:43] iamlindoro: but really, what's the proper syntax?
[23:48:52] sphery: So, turns out I'm an IRC pacifist. Never wielded a trout in anger.
[23:49:00] kormoc: /msg MythLogBot trout #channel nick message
[23:49:01] iamlindoro: I weild trout only in joy
[23:49:09] iamlindoro: er wield
[23:49:43] ** iamlindoro welds some trout into an almighty trout siege engine **
[23:50:07] ** kormoc wonders if the giant badger will work better **
[23:50:33] iamlindoro: You're always badgering me, I should have expected this
[23:51:17] iamlindoro: *sigh*, so this r8169 bug basically makes the NIC go out for a few minutes at a time when under load, and only w/ .6.28
[23:51:27] iamlindoro: er 2.6.28
[23:51:44] iamlindoro: and the solution is "upgrade to 2.6.30", which I am not willing to do, too much breaky breaky in that kernel
[23:52:50] iamlindoro: Unfortunately it's the NIC for my backend/IRC proxy/etc.

[23:54:18] sphery: iamlindoro: another solution is a $10 PCIe gigabit NIC
[23:54:44] iamlindoro: sphery, Yeah, just swapped another (unaffected) card out for a QAM tuner a few weeks ago, which is when I learned of the issue
[23:54:47] sphery: use it 'til you have a good r8169 driver, then you've got a backup NIC when you need it
[23:55:10] kormoc: or bond them for extra fun
[23:55:12] iamlindoro: well, I learned of the issue today, but started seeing it them
[23:55:20] abqjp: iamlindoro, is 2.6.29 broken too?
[23:55:28] iamlindoro: kormoc, The Mobo has 4x r8169, no need for the PCI one :)
[23:55:32] kormoc: iamlindoro, so was comcast not broken, just your nick?

[23:55:47] iamlindoro: kormoc, last time was comcast, this time is the NIC
[23:55:51] iamlindoro: abqjp, I'm not sure
[23:56:16] iamlindoro: Can afford to loas a QAM tuner for sure, just a bummer
[23:56:18] iamlindoro: er lose
[23:56:31] sphery: iamlindoro should do a /nick broken
[23:56:34] iamlindoro: Just when I thought the onboard NIC thing was "figured out"
[23:56:35] abqjp: F11 ships with 2.6.29. I was trying to decide if I should install it. If 2.6.29 is broken too, then that makes the decision for me.
[23:57:04] iamlindoro: abqjp, Yeah, just not sure, only suggestions I'm seeing are that it's solved or mostly solved in 2.6.30, but no mention at all of 2.6.29
[23:57:32] sphery: what brokenness in 2.6.30 worries you?
[23:57:47] iamlindoro: sphery, major issues with v4l-dvb over the past few weeks of lurking in thre
[23:57:48] iamlindoro: there
[23:57:53] sphery: oh
[23:58:55] iamlindoro: And that's one place I'd rather not risk it
