[00:19:54] | RDV_Linux: | iamlindoro: In which directories are the graphics for mythgames being stored? |
[00:21:19] | iamlindoro: | They're set by the user |
[00:21:37] | iamlindoro: | Utilities/Setup->Setup->Media Settings->Game Settings->General |
[00:21:43] | iamlindoro: | (at least, as of current trunk) |

[00:24:24] | RDV_Linux: | Ok, I am concerned that they were in the same directories as for mythvideo, The Jamu -MJ janitor function would end up removing them as they are not associated with any video files. Could a user could set the mythgame graphics directories to be the same as the mythvideo graphics directories? |
[00:24:38] | iamlindoro: | They could |
[00:24:55] | iamlindoro: | That would be their own fault, though |
[00:25:02] | iamlindoro: | as that would make them stupid :) |
[00:25:54] | clever: | iamlindoro: do you use a joystick with mythfrontend, i think i remember you saying you did |
[00:25:56] | dan__t (dan__t!n=dant@vpn.withparity.net) has left #mythtv-users ("Leaving") | |
[00:26:05] | iamlindoro: | Only with games in mythgame |
[00:26:10] | clever: | ah |
[00:26:14] | RDV_Linux: | Stupidity is way too common for programmers to ignore. |
[00:26:23] | iamlindoro: | Greyfoxx does, though |
[00:26:26] | clever: | i just patched it to make the throttle act as a volume knob |
[00:26:53] | iamlindoro: | RDV_Linux, yes, but all the same, that's going to be an extreme corner case |
[00:27:07] | iamlindoro: | RDV_Linux, I would make a note of it in the docs and let them figure it out on their own |
[00:28:09] | iamlindoro: | IMO, even though it's growing on me, I expect a very very small percentage of myth users use mythgame |
[00:28:35] | iamlindoro: | and fewer still will use MythGame and JAMU, and fewer *still* w/ the Janitor option |
[00:28:47] | RDV_Linux: | I will most likely put in a simple check and stop the janitor function if the game graphics directories are the same. I am into that code anyways. |
[00:28:51] | clever: | ive found that the zsnes emulator is performing alot poorer then i remember it being |
[00:28:54] | iamlindoro: | RDV_Linux, cool |
[00:28:57] | clever: | any tips on that? |
[00:29:21] | iamlindoro: | clever, I don't use zsnes |
[00:29:35] | clever: | what console do you emulate?, and with which emulator? |
[00:29:47] | iamlindoro: | only have some NES games, Scumm games, and some PC games via WINE |
[00:29:54] | clever: | ah |
[00:29:56] | iamlindoro: | fceu |
[00:30:02] | iamlindoro: | scummvm, and wine/bashscripts |

[00:41:07] | jams: | RDV_Linux- so if the video graphics were kept in the same directory as mythgallery, would that cause problems? |
[00:42:05] | iamlindoro: | (yes) |
[00:42:39] | iamlindoro: | well, only if the pictures of your child's birth disappearing is a problem :) |
[00:42:46] | jams: | thats aproblem then. I know several people whoe keep videoart in the same place as the gallery |
[00:43:15] | RDV_Linux: | jams: TROUBLE. The janitor option cleans out any mythvideo graphics directories of graphic file not associated with a videoemetadata. |
[00:43:40] | jams: | what if video is it's own subdir ? |
[00:43:56] | jams: | say /images/posters |
[00:44:13] | jams: | where /images is mythgallery and /images/posters is all things video related |
[00:44:41] | jams: | that seems like it might be ok |

[00:46:57] | RDV_Linux: | I will take a hard look at the janitor code and these potential issues. I do not think jamu climbs the subdirectory tree for video graphics although I will have to check. In general I would rather check for graphics directories used for more than one purpose and just stop the janitor option. |
[00:49:58] | RDV_Linux: | jams: Thanks for bringing the mythgallery issue to my attention. |
[00:51:34] | iamlindoro: | yeah, good catch |

[01:01:37] | RDV_Linux: | wagnerrp: Correct, just a try/except around the return when trying to encode the string to unicode utf8. The string the was causing the problem was the name "Penélope Cruz" with an accent over the first "e". |

[03:48:19] | Smirnov: | anyone know the difference between UPnP and DLNA? |
[03:48:30] | ** wagnerrp is stumped on turning a negative double into a pair of signed int ** | |
[03:49:27] | wagnerrp: | UPnP is a generic specification describing autodiscovery, file transfer, and a range of other things |
[03:49:39] | wagnerrp: | DNLA is a very limited subset of the capabilities of UPnP |
[03:49:46] | ** mycosys1 is stumped as to which of the worthless areas he is missing lol ** | |
[03:49:48] | Smirnov: | well what's the difference when it comes to streaming video |
[03:49:49] | wagnerrp: | specifically for video distribution |
[03:49:55] | Smirnov: | cause my video player supports DLNA |
[03:50:01] | Smirnov: | and I am wondernig if mythtv is what I should be using to do the streaming |
[03:50:25] | wagnerrp: | if you use mpeg encoders or digital tuners, youre probably safe |
[03:50:38] | mycosys1: | anyone here using trunk via the mythbuntu repos on 9.4? |
[03:50:44] | wagnerrp: | if youre using framegrabbers, transcoding, or doing anything that might create nuvs, you need to look elsewhere |
[03:51:04] | Smirnov: | mmm I just need to stream whatever videos I might have to the video player :-\ |
[03:51:07] | Smirnov: | not live video or anything |
[03:51:13] | phunyguy (phunyguy!n=phunyguy@h69-130-70-199.kgldga.dsl.dynamic.tds.net) has joined #mythtv-users | |
[03:51:22] | wagnerrp: | no hardware player is going to support nuvs, and mythtv will not transcode on-the-fly |
[03:51:33] | Smirnov: | whats nuvs again? bluray? |
[03:52:03] | wagnerrp: | nupplevideo, myth's in-house container format |
[03:52:17] | Smirnov: | oh yeah I dont think I will be using that since I don't do any recording |
[03:52:21] | mycosys1: | !trunk |
[03:52:37] | Smirnov: | what would be something that does support transcoding incase i needed that though? |
[03:52:52] | mycosys1: | mythtv |
[03:53:01] | Smirnov: | i already used mythtv (directly on my pc) before but not as a upnp server |
[03:53:04] | wagnerrp: | i believe fuppes and mediatomb both support transcoding |
[03:53:41] | wagnerrp: | mycosys1: mythtv can transcode as a batch process, but it has no capability of doing that on-demand |
[03:53:50] | Smirnov: | so does any video player that supports DLNA pretty much work with what most people call UPnP video streaming? |
[03:54:51] | wagnerrp: | sadly, many manufacturers have bent the term 'universal' over a barrel |
[03:55:20] | Smirnov: | well i know my video player supports DLNA but every site I go to for OSS video streaming mentions upnp not dlna |
[03:55:43] | iamlindoro: | any DLNA product that is a media streamer is by defintion uPnP certified |
[03:56:31] | Smirnov: | so I would just be able to use anything that streams upnp with it? |
[03:56:41] | wagnerrp: | you should... yes |
[03:56:54] | iamlindoro: | no, you'd be able to use anything that streams uPnP in the format it demands with it |
[03:57:06] | crankhar1er is now known as crankharder | |
[03:57:24] | iamlindoro: | if it doesn't support the codecs/containers you have in your myth video library over uPnP, then you won't be able to play those files |
[03:57:39] | iamlindoro: | take, for example, the xbox 360 or ps3 |
[03:57:47] | iamlindoro: | both are DLNA/uPnp clients |
[03:58:01] | iamlindoro: | neither plays most of what regular people have in their libraries via uPnP |
[03:58:11] | wagnerrp: | the 360 is DNLA compliant? |
[03:58:26] | wagnerrp: | i thought it would only accept servers masquerading as Media Centers |
[03:58:36] | iamlindoro: | yes, 360 is DLNA |
[03:59:19] | Smirnov: | hmm so i need something that transcodes? |
[03:59:34] | wagnerrp: | seem comment way back |
[03:59:39] | wagnerrp: | s/seem/see/ |
[03:59:42] | iamlindoro: | depends entirely on the capabilities of your player. Again. |
[03:59:48] | Dagmar: | uPnP is just the communication mechanism |
[04:00:14] | wagnerrp: | anything off an mpeg encoder (IVTV card) should be fairly universally playable |
[04:00:14] | Dagmar: | Might as well be looking for a web browser that supports HTTP |
[04:00:24] | Dagmar: | Those are just a bitch to find, let me tell you |
[04:00:43] | wagnerrp: | anything from a digital tuner should have pretty good compatibility, but some devices may not have AC3 support, or may not support the necessary bitrate |
[04:01:10] | wagnerrp: | anything off a framegrabber, not a chance of direct playback |
[04:01:13] | iamlindoro: | or just be bastards like the 360 |
[04:01:21] | iamlindoro: | which won't play MPEG-2 over uPnP |
[04:01:27] | iamlindoro: | but will happily play it from a DVD |
[04:01:29] | iamlindoro: | go figure |
[04:02:09] | wagnerrp: | divx/xvid in avis, should have pretty good compatibility, as should h264 and aac in mp4s (assuming sane encoding options) |
[04:02:33] | wagnerrp: | mkvs and ogms... likely very little compatibility |
[04:03:08] | wagnerrp: | anything that will not directly playback will require transcoding, which mythtv will not do for you |
[04:03:19] | wagnerrp: | try the aforementioned fuppes or mediatomb |
[04:03:26] | Smirnov: | hmm do transcoders usually support playing dvd |
[04:03:29] | Smirnov: | like the vob files i think? |
[04:03:30] | wagnerrp: | theres probably other linux software that will work as well |
[04:05:58] | Smirnov: | would any probs even play vobs or is that a pipe dream |
[04:06:02] | Smirnov: | would any progs* |
[04:07:18] | wagnerrp: | awesome... seems i dont need to do anything special to split negative longs into ints |
[04:08:26] | wagnerrp: | Smirnov: you might find something to do that... but youre better off either ripping it normally, or just putting the disk in a dvd player |
[04:08:50] | Smirnov: | yeah i guess so |
[04:08:54] | Smirnov: | and nothing supports playing bluray rips right? |
[04:09:00] | wagnerrp: | does mythvideo support playback of ISOs? |
[04:09:33] | wagnerrp: | Smirnov: i dont know the state of m2ts or evob support on hardware devices |

[04:30:29] | wagnerrp: | you *can* use EIT for the show or two (maybe as much as a day) that youre likely to get |
[04:30:30] | devinpitcher: | Is it worth the $20? |
[04:31:01] | GreyFoxx: | heck yeah |
[04:31:02] | wagnerrp: | you *can* try to find an XMLTV provider, but given the availability of SD, theres not much incentive to write a scraper |
[04:31:08] | GreyFoxx: | like 0.05 a day |
[04:31:13] | GreyFoxx: | more than worth it:) |

[04:32:08] | mycosys1: | wish icetv was that cheap lol |
[04:32:17] | devinpitcher: | Cool. I hope they don't go away like zap2it did. I was reading tutorial after tutorial, and it was all for zap2it, only to find out it closed back in 2007. |

[04:32:37] | GreyFoxx: | sd isn't going away anytime soon |
[04:32:41] | wagnerrp: | schedules direct came about because zap2it went away |
[04:32:50] | wagnerrp: | schedules direct uses the same data from the same provider as zap2it |
[04:33:23] | devinpitcher: | Oh, cool. So if zap2it.com shows the correct listing for my area, then thats what SD will give me? |
[04:33:53] | wagnerrp: | yes |
[04:34:12] | wagnerrp: | im wondering what youre doing asking these questions now... didnt zap2it die like two years ago? |
[04:34:34] | GreyFoxx: | just the free listings for us |
[04:34:43] | GreyFoxx: | zap2it is still active |
[04:34:56] | devinpitcher: | Well, i just decided to build a DVR today and found mythTV, and all the tutorials I found mentioned zap2it. They must have been old... :P |
[04:35:30] | devinpitcher: | well, zap2it *Labs* is dead ... |
[04:35:37] | wagnerrp: | yeah, 0.20.2 was released (in 2007?) to make the transition from zap2it to schedulesdirect |
[04:36:14] | devinpitcher: | Oh wow. Yeah, my tutorials must have been pretty old. I saw one with Kevin Rose and some other guy on Google, and they talked about getting the labs account and all |

[04:37:43] | wagnerrp: | its abandoned |
[04:38:06] | devinpitcher: | Really? Its being updated on its website... :/ |
[04:38:06] | wagnerrp: | knoppmyth moved from knoppix to arch, and got renamed to linhes |
[04:38:34] | wagnerrp: | that was some time early this year |
[04:38:41] | devinpitcher: | Oh, I see. |
[04:38:55] | devinpitcher: | So whats the best approach to MythTV for a newbie then? |
[04:39:05] | wagnerrp: | do you have any experience in linux? |
[04:39:34] | devinpitcher: | Yeah. I also run Mac OS X so I have alot of terminal knoledge and UNIX knowledge |
[04:39:47] | ** Dagmar snickers ** | |
[04:39:51] | wagnerrp: | what distro do you prefer? |
[04:40:32] | devinpitcher: | I used to use MEPIS a while back, and then used Ubuntu and Kubuntu, but it doesn't really matter. |
[04:40:50] | wagnerrp: | then youre probably best off sticking to mythbuntu |
[04:41:17] | devinpitcher: | Ok. I'll look that up. |
[04:41:21] | wagnerrp: | which means using the mythbuntu install docs as well... they do things a bit differently than a normal source install |
[04:41:22] | devinpitcher: | Also, is the hauppauge WinTV PVR 150 any good? |
[04:41:35] | wagnerrp: | that is the recommended analog capture/tuner card |
[04:41:46] | devinpitcher: | Awesome. I found it on Craigslist for $40 |
[04:41:59] | wagnerrp: | that and the 500, depending on your needs |
[04:42:18] | devinpitcher: | I have Comcast Cable, standard 90 or so channels. |
[04:42:27] | wagnerrp: | $40 seems a bit high... but i guess you dont have to deal with shipping and paypal/ebay issues |
[04:42:33] | Dagmar: | Wait, wait... |
[04:42:37] | wagnerrp: | dont expect those 90 channels for long |
[04:42:50] | Dagmar: | Someone comes in and wants some advice about what to run, someone tells him a canned distro and he accepts that? |
[04:42:50] | devinpitcher: | Why? |
[04:43:09] | Dagmar: | No complaining that we're insuling him by not helping him piece it together on an old FBSD he found? |
[04:43:13] | devinpitcher: | Well, I just started looking at this stuff TODAY, so idk anything about it really. |
[04:43:15] | Dagmar: | It's a trick |
[04:43:20] | Dagmar: | This has to be some kind of new troll |
[04:43:28] | Dagmar: | People taking advice gracefully... Riiiiight |
[04:43:32] | devinpitcher: | Wha-? |
[04:43:45] | devinpitcher: | Im not a troll. Google my name |
[04:43:50] | devinpitcher: | Im a real person |
[04:43:58] | Dagmar: | Oh you won't trick me that way! |
[04:44:06] | GreyFoxx: | devinpitcher: Many peoplecome in and ask questions only to yell at s when we tell them answers they don't like :) |
[04:44:14] | GreyFoxx: | so you ar e abreathe of fresh air ) |
[04:44:15] | devinpitcher: | wtf? I just wanted some help |
[04:44:40] | wagnerrp: | dont mind him, hes just making jokes about you being a lot easier to help than the normal person in here |
[04:44:45] | clever: | GreyFoxx: do you use a joystick to control mythfrontend much? |
[04:44:45] | Dagmar: | I'm being sarcastic |
[04:44:55] | wagnerrp: | the whole, 'its quiet... too quiet' sort of thing |
[04:45:03] | devinpitcher: | Geeze, got me worked up there. :P |
[04:45:08] | GreyFoxx: | clever: Now. It's confiured but I rarely use it :) |
[04:45:13] | GreyFoxx: | s/now/no |
[04:45:20] | clever: | GreyFoxx: does it have a throttle control? |
[04:45:31] | GreyFoxx: | no |
[04:45:37] | wagnerrp: | anyway, comcast has been transitioning their markets over to digital with DTAs |
[04:45:38] | GreyFoxx: | gamepad like device |
[04:45:41] | Dagmar: | devinpitcher: Generally the response we get from telling someone to run Mythbuntu or something is along the lines of "OMG U THINK I R STPUID! THAT R SLOW! HALP ME BUILD THIS ON MY OMGTIMIZED GENTOO DAMNIT" |
[04:45:46] | clever: | GreyFoxx: ah, was looking for somebody to test my patch |
[04:45:51] | clever: | GreyFoxx: http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/6713 |
[04:45:52] | Dagmar: | I'm pleased to see you. :) |
[04:45:59] | devinpitcher: | But yeah, im builing a new rig for this soon, but for now, is a P4 1.7 with 512mb OK, with the PVR 150? |
[04:46:01] | clever: | it basicaly turns the throttle into a volume control |
[04:46:22] | Dagmar: | clever; I used to have a throttle like that on my car |
[04:46:23] | wagnerrp: | they cut their analog lineup down to about 30 channels, and then you rent a little $1/mo box to access the previously analog channels using clearQAM |
[04:46:52] | wagnerrp: | although when that happens, you can just grab any QAM tuner, and access the channels digitally directly |
[04:47:07] | devinpitcher: | so wait, I wont get all my channels? |
[04:47:10] | GreyFoxx: | yeah I don't have one |
[04:47:28] | Dagmar: | It |
[04:47:39] | wagnerrp: | you will have to contact comcast to see what their rollout schedule is for your area |
[04:47:44] | Dagmar: | It's just a prediction based on some of the sleazy stuff some francises are pulling |
[04:48:10] | Dagmar: | They haven't done anything like that here yet |
[04:48:28] | wagnerrp: | it has primarily been on the west coast |
[04:48:35] | devinpitcher: | Maybe I missaid this: will i get all the same channels i would get if i plugged the cable directly into a tv? |
[04:48:49] | Dagmar: | I think it's partly that there's a lot of activist geeks here who would get in their faces about it, and partly that there's a shortage of managers who would be the ones to say "Hey, I've got an idea how to screw the customers even more" at the moment |
[04:49:04] | wagnerrp: | with an analog tuner, yes, for now |
[04:49:26] | Dagmar: | devinpitcher: Unless you've seen your cable co yammering on about it, all your analog cable channels should be fine |
[04:49:39] | devinpitcher: | Ok |
[04:49:43] | Dagmar: | Anything you can pick up without an STB (set top box) you should be able to pick up with a PVR-150/500 |
[04:49:43] | wagnerrp: | read http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Comcast_Users_And_scte65scan for more information |
[04:50:08] | devinpitcher: | Dagmar: Just what I wanted :) |
[04:50:09] | Dagmar: | Once they start leaning on their customers to try to force them to go digital tho, expect channels to start disappearing |
[04:50:11] | wagnerrp: | and anything you can pick up with their new DTAs, you can pick up with any QAM tuner |
[04:50:19] | Dagmar: | But it *could* be a blessing in disguise |
[04:50:26] | Dagmar: | Here they took away two channels |
[04:50:33] | Dagmar: | Home Shopping Network, and G4. |
[04:51:06] | devinpitcher: | Yeah, we got in the mail something about 2 free complimentary "boxes" |
[04:51:14] | devinpitcher: | is that to convert to digital? |
[04:51:16] | Dagmar: | Yes, I'm really feeling that a network that airs chauvanist pig videos and things like "Hurl" is really hurting my lifestyle by it's absence |
[04:51:21] | Smirnov: | does windows have upnp support or something, so i can test my upnp server easily |
[04:51:22] | wagnerrp: | that converts FROM digital |
[04:51:28] | Dagmar: | Smirnov: It actually does |
[04:51:29] | Smirnov: | upnp support as a client* |
[04:51:33] | wagnerrp: | Smirnov: vista or better |
[04:51:37] | Smirnov: | yeah I've got vista |
[04:51:39] | Dagmar: | Nuh uh |
[04:51:40] | Smirnov: | is it just in media player? |
[04:51:43] | Dagmar: | XP will do it too |
[04:51:57] | wagnerrp: | Dagmar: not with microsoft software |
[04:52:01] | devinpitcher: | So when we get that "box" i'll still have my channels? |
[04:52:02] | Dagmar: | I might have prodded something from Microsoft's Knowledge Base, but my Myth box shows up here with XP, man |
[04:52:15] | Dagmar: | It's just relatively useless functionality |
[04:52:25] | wagnerrp: | microsoft arbitrarily blocks WMP11 from using UPNP under XP |
[04:52:27] | devinpitcher: | So maybe I should just look for a *digital* tuner card? |
[04:52:35] | Dagmar: | devinpitcher: When you switch to using an STB things become marginally more complex, but that's about it |
[04:52:41] | Dagmar: | A digital tuner card won't help |
[04:53:27] | devinpitcher: | Sigh, so I basically have till October to use this before it gets hard. |
[04:53:44] | wagnerrp: | analog cable is very easy |
[04:53:48] | wagnerrp: | digital cable, you have a few options |
[04:53:54] | GreyFoxx: | You could still record from the outputs of a settop box if they go all digital |
[04:54:10] | pizzledizzle (pizzledizzle!n=pizdets@pool-96-250-220-91.nycmny.fios.verizon.net) has quit (Success) | |
[04:54:20] | wagnerrp: | you can get a digital tuner, and try your luck with clearQAM (and since comcast is moving to DTAs, you should get a fair number of channels this way) |
[04:54:33] | Dagmar: | ...but only until Comcast notices |
[04:54:39] | devinpitcher: | Well, the only settop we have is on the first floor, while I am on the second. Thats too hard, and I dont want to wire anything up |
[04:54:43] | wagnerrp: | you can get a cablebox, and capture using the firewire ports |
[04:54:49] | Dagmar: | In most regions Comcast won't even let their people get video over firewire |
[04:55:06] | wagnerrp: | or you can get a cablebox and capture using the analog outputs with a 150 or HDPVR |
[04:55:10] | devinpitcher: | Here is the box we will get: http://picasaweb.google.com/virgegx/ComcastDTAUnboxing# |
[04:55:34] | wagnerrp: | the DTAs do have some form of crypto hardware, however at the moment, they are not allowed to use it |
[04:55:49] | wagnerrp: | it is yet to be seen whether their lobbying will change that |
[04:56:07] | devinpitcher: | screw this DTV transition. Making this hard for me. :( |
[04:56:47] | wagnerrp: | do you have a digital tv? |
[04:57:52] | devinpitcher: | I will be using a computer LCD with DVI and VGA |
[04:58:01] | wagnerrp: | ok... nevermind then |
[04:58:16] | devinpitcher: | why? |
[04:58:27] | wagnerrp: | i was going to say if you had a digital tv, you could plug it into the cable line, do a scan, and anything you pick up would also be receivable by a digital tuner |
[05:00:58] | devinpitcher: | So when I get this box, is it going to not allow me to use it with an analog card? Sorry if i ask a lot of qesions: not very good with this stuff |
[05:01:16] | wagnerrp: | that box is nothing more than a QAM tuner |
[05:01:35] | wagnerrp: | you plug it into the cable line, it tunes QAM channels, and outputs analog (svideo or composite) |
[05:01:56] | wagnerrp: | you *can* capture the video off that box using an analog card |
[05:02:06] | wagnerrp: | however the much better option is to just buy your own QAM tuner card |
[05:02:09] | wagnerrp: | and not bother with the box |
[05:02:34] | devinpitcher: | is the PVR 150 a QAM tuner card, or no? |
[05:02:45] | wagnerrp: | no, analog only |
[05:03:11] | wagnerrp: | the 1600 is effectively a 150 plus an ATSC/QAM tuner |
[05:03:38] | wagnerrp: | the 1800 and 2250 will also do analog+digital, but the analog sides on those cards do not currently work with mythtv |
[05:04:15] | wagnerrp: | however, unless you have limited PCI[e] slots, its cheaper to just buy a 150 now, and a QAM tuner when it comes to that |
[05:04:21] | devinpitcher: | well, i'm not big on money here, so if i get the PVR 150 and the comcast box, am I OK? I dont mind having the box, as long as i still get my channels... |
[05:04:30] | devinpitcher: | yeah |
[05:04:35] | devinpitcher: | i think ill do taht |

[05:07:55] | devinpitcher: | Hmm, theses a problem with this box though. You use it as a set top box. You leave your TV on channel 3 and the box changes channels. How would that work with mythTV for changing channels? |
[05:08:34] | wagnerrp: | you dont use the tuner, you use the svideo inputs on the capture card |
[05:08:53] | wagnerrp: | and then you use an external channel changer script with an IR blaster to change the channels on the box |
[05:09:37] | devinpitcher: | ... so is it easier to get a digital card then, with a QAM tuner? |
[05:10:41] | wagnerrp: | that depends... most QAM channels are encrypted |
[05:10:50] | wagnerrp: | i only get the local broadcast channels over QAM |
[05:11:12] | wagnerrp: | however in your case, you should be able to pick up most of the channels you would otherwise get over analog, because of the DTAs |
[05:12:29] | wagnerrp: | the standard cable channels you would get over QAM will probably be standard definition |
[05:12:50] | wagnerrp: | however with a digital card, you should be able to get the high definition versions of the local broadcast channels |

[05:13:23] | devinpitcher: | I will be using a Dual Core Celeron 2GHz later on |
[05:13:23] | wagnerrp: | but you should be able to manage it if you have a video card capable of XvMC (partial hardware offload of mpeg2 decoding) |
[05:13:53] | wagnerrp: | anything that is a Core2 or derivative should be able to manage HD mpeg2 |
[05:14:19] | clever: | ive found some mpeg2 that makes my c2d 1.8ghz struggle or choke |
[05:14:24] | wagnerrp: | i believe the dual core celerons are all allendale (core2) cores |
[05:14:25] | clever: | but it was unsliced |
[05:14:34] | devinpitcher: | Yes, they are. |
[05:14:39] | wagnerrp: | ALLLLLL mpeg2 is unsliced |
[05:14:55] | clever: | ah |
[05:15:08] | wagnerrp: | slicing is a h264/vc1 thing |
[05:15:30] | clever: | that explains it:) |
[05:17:01] | devinpitcher: | So whats the cheapest digital card thats good you can think of? |
[05:17:38] | devinpitcher: | Hows the Hauppauge WinTV HVR-1250 |
[05:18:47] | wagnerrp: | i have one, its great, but its pcie |
[05:19:03] | wagnerrp: | and your 1.7P4 board probably has no pcie slots |
[05:19:45] | devinpitcher: | the new board im getting will. hmm |
[05:20:03] | Dagmar: | If you think you might be getting digital HD cable you might consider the HD-PVR |
[05:20:33] | wagnerrp: | trunk might be getting a little ahead of ourselves here |
[05:20:37] | Dagmar: | Yeah |
[05:20:44] | wagnerrp: | although it seems 0.22 may not be long off |
[05:20:46] | devinpitcher: | Well, we get HD Digital here with a DVR box |
[05:20:59] | devinpitcher: | but i wanted to build this dvr for my room upstairs |
[05:21:06] | wagnerrp: | but then the HDPVR is not cheap |

[12:32:04] | fdlinux: | checked in fedora channel and they been replaced with alsa in /dev/snd/ |
[12:32:19] | fdlinux: | that's what i am trying , to set in mythtv-setup |
[12:32:25] | laga: | then enable the oss compatbility |

[12:32:33] | tanderson: | so fedora doesn't have oss compatibility anymore? |
[12:32:54] | fdlinux: | its now pulseaudio appereantly , but i removed it |
[12:33:14] | laga: | pulseaudio is a layer on top of alsa |
[12:33:54] | fdlinux: | alsamixer -c 1 gives met control over the sound output of my saa7134 tv card |

[12:35:04] | mace (mace!n=mace@debian/developer/mace) has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) | |
[12:35:29] | coldpenguin: | I had a working system with mythtv 0.21, running from ATRPMS |
[12:35:41] | coldpenguin: | Two backends, two dedicated diskless frontends |
[12:36:00] | coldpenguin: | One backend was FC7, so I wanted to upgrade, and have done so..... |
[12:36:39] | laga: | fdlinux: look up oss compat on fedora 11. |
[12:36:41] | tanderson: | wagnerrp: i got the audio thing fixed. I had to match the sampling rate that I captured off the card with the sampling rate I encode the audio stuff into(mp3) |
[12:36:42] | coldpenguin: | 1 master backend, with DVB-T hauppage USB2 recorders, 1 slave backend with a hauppage DVB-S PCI card, + frontend |
[12:36:59] | sphery: | enable OSS compatibility = load OSS compatibility ALSA modules, such as snd-pcm-oss , snd-mixer-oss , and snd-seq-oss |
[12:37:05] | coldpenguin: | master backend is F11, slave backend F10, installed to trunk |
[12:37:20] | sphery: | and you really need to get rid of Pulse for a Myth box |
[12:37:35] | sphery: | or, just use MythDora = Fedora that's /already/ configured properly for Myth |
[12:38:35] | coldpenguin: | slave backend/frontend can watch all recordings, laptop running F11 can watch all recordings. Diskless frontend, running F11, can only watch 50% of recordings from DVB-T, and all recordings from DVB-S, the other couple of recordings cause mythfrontend to crash and generate a bug report |
[12:38:46] | coldpenguin: | This is as the recording starts. |
[12:39:09] | fdlinux: | sphery: thx , loaded those modules , and now i have my dsp files back |
[12:39:25] | coldpenguin: | Any ideas which area I should look at? I have tried to compare all rpms to the laptop, but apart from a few (mainly java based rpms) there seems to be no difference. |
[12:39:41] | laga: | coldpenguin: get a backtrace and report it on trac |
[12:40:08] | FinnTux: | is there a way to set default language when using backend selection? |
[12:40:08] | coldpenguin: | ok thanks laga. Is there a record of this channel? |
[12:40:15] | sphery: | coldpenguin: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Debugging (and feel free to fill out the package-specific section for your distro) |
[12:40:25] | FinnTux: | now frontend always asks it first |
[12:40:48] | sphery: | coldpenguin: http://mythtv.beirdo.ca/ircLog/channel/1/history |
[12:41:19] | coldpenguin: | thanks |
[12:41:42] | sphery: | FinnTux: means your ~/.mythtv/config.xml is broken --fix it (edit by hand if necessary and/or find a copy on another system and copy it to the right place) |
[12:41:59] | sphery: | broken, in this case, probably means nonexistant |
[12:42:53] | fdlinux: | found that there i al line in vi /etc/modprobe.d/dist-oss.conf that was commented to disable oss sound in fedora |
[12:48:00] | FinnTux: | sphery, its there. but nothing about language in there. |
[12:48:20] | FinnTux: | sphery, language is ok after I select the backend I want |
[12:48:36] | FinnTux: | I just want frontend to go directly to backend selection |

[13:59:07] | khoj: | my recordings for few of the channels fail at the end of the recording, when the new recording is to start |
[13:59:53] | khoj: | this is with cable; all the channels on one mplexid dont have this issue |
[14:00:10] | khoj: | channels on the remaining mplex ids have this issue |
[14:00:43] | khoj: | should i suspect the signal strength (cable) or the card |
[14:01:15] | khoj: | on live tv – the signal strength is above 93% for all the channels – those having issues and those that dont have |
[14:01:17] | pwarren: | laga: That gives me lots of detail, only resolution I could find was about the xv display rectangle. |
[14:04:09] | pwarren: | but mplayer tells me the resulting .mpg file is 1440x1080 |
[14:04:40] | pwarren: | 25 fps, and 14600 kbps |
[14:05:11] | pwarren: | so, the answer is, I guess, no easy way to display the video info on the OSD. |

[15:16:25] | laga: | ah, okay. you used *release* and gdb. i missed that |
[15:16:30] | coldpenguin: | when I used quit on gdb, it said are you sure, the program is still running |
[15:16:40] | coldpenguin: | with debug, it was quite happy. |
[15:16:40] | laga: | try profile, that comes with debug symbols and most, if not all, optimizations of the release code |
[15:16:59] | coldpenguin: | I might just run with that, it seemed fast enough (even though it is only a P4 1.4) |
[15:17:25] | coldpenguin: | Is compiling profile right now. Not the fastest thing to compile on |
[15:17:32] | laga: | well, if it is a bug, it'd be good to get it fixed :) |
[15:18:23] | coldpenguin: | I agree, but it is just whether it takes too much dev time just to reproduce the blooming thing if we can get a pointer as to where the bug is |
[15:18:34] | laga: | yep. |
[15:18:39] | coldpenguin: | Maybe one day, we will no longer run 32bit |
[15:18:51] | coldpenguin: | (hah) |
[15:18:54] | laga: | what's that got to do with anything? |
[15:19:05] | laga: | that's not going to prevent seg faults ;) |
[15:19:22] | coldpenguin: | All the 64bit machines I have here are quite happy. It is only the 32bit frontends which are crashing |
[15:19:31] | laga: | ah |
[15:19:47] | laga: | did you get the same revision from svn as you were using previously when it was crashing? |
[15:19:51] | coldpenguin: | This bug is probably an incorrect assignment from int to pointer or something, something which may not be a problem on the 64bits |
[15:20:20] | coldpenguin: | Yes, I have had this bug for a week, and this morning, updated svn on all 5 machines, then recompiled all and re-tested |

[15:22:30] | coldpenguin: | For a while (before I reinstalled the servers) I was running 0.21-fixes FE against an old atrpms F7 myth distro. I expected errors on that and accepted that differences in code were probably going to create them. So now I have kinda up-to-date systems (F10 +F11), I am running trunk so I can keep them all at the same codebase |
[15:22:45] | laga: | that's a good idea usually |

[15:38:25] | jams: | First thing I would do is make sure it's being called by myth. Modify the script to write out to afile anytime it's called. |

[17:41:18] | iamlindoro: | sphery, #6557 is a legit fix AFAICT |
[17:41:33] | sphery: | real problem in #6714--user is using LiveTV |
[17:41:50] | sphery: | (i.e. not visible channels are /never/ used by the scheduler) |
[17:43:54] | iamlindoro: | that said, it *shouldn't* be possible to tune invisible channels in live TV |
[17:44:53] | sphery: | yeah |
[17:45:33] | sphery: | though I do believe it's wrong to define a non-tunable channel as part of a video source (i.e. video source is a list of channels tunable via a specific input) |
[17:46:14] | iamlindoro: | interesting... Mythtranscode is reporting 0% through the entire transcode job for me, even though they're getting done |
[17:46:29] | Dagmar: | EFFISHENSEE! |

[17:49:10] | clever: | laga: yep |
[17:49:17] | sphery: | I think, actually, the LiveTV tuning not visible channels was broken by other stup^H^H^H^Hchanges like "Allow LiveTV to browse across inputs" |
[17:49:50] | clever: | laga: the only real problem i can see, is that the OSD doesnt react at all |
[17:50:24] | sphery: | (the almost stupid not because of the code, but because the whole idea simply adds complexity to LiveTV, which is already a big enough mess--and, of course, because LiveTV is inherently stupid) |
[17:50:27] | clever: | so the only feedback that its working, is stdout and the speakers |
[17:51:55] | kurre (kurre!n=tomimo@xdsl-83-150-88-111.nebulazone.fi) has joined #mythtv-users | |
[17:56:49] | sphery: | gbee: another approach is to make the images in the default/default-wide themes as ugly/bright as possible so that people are actually motivated to make real themes |
[17:57:08] | iamlindoro: | That's the reason the legacy themes should be set on fire :) |
[17:57:11] | sphery: | might also have the added benefit of making people think that svn rm'ing the legacy themes isn't a bad idea |
[17:57:42] | Dagmar: | Where did that background of day-glo maple leaves run off to? |
[17:57:45] | iamlindoro: | Not because I dislike them, but just to force them getting fixed |
[17:57:50] | Dagmar: | That thing was win |
[17:57:58] | iamlindoro: | Though it seems at least 3 or 4 people are doing their own ports of Blootube |
[17:58:19] | sphery: | ah, what a wonderful idea |
[17:58:36] | sphery: | port a theme--designed under the constraints of the old/inflexible UI--to the new UI |
[17:58:49] | iamlindoro: | Blootube is a nice theme, it's one of the few that is nice enough that a port would be an okay thing |
[17:58:50] | sphery: | instead of actually taking advantage of/designing for the new capabilities of hte new UI |
[17:59:02] | iamlindoro: | especially for folks who are running or more limited hardware that new themes may make choke |
[17:59:08] | Dagmar: | <flicker style="aimlessly"></flicker> |

[18:00:30] | iamlindoro: | Software GL maybe? |
[18:00:35] | wagnerrp: | sure.... it just takes a long time because they dont have much spare CPU to run MESA |

[18:53:11] | wagnerrp: | its 'Lecture Circuit' from SD, but 'Lecture Circuit Part 1' on ttvdb |
[18:53:27] | hippiehunter: | I suppose i will try installing different ATI drivers |
[18:53:27] | wagnerrp: | is there any way to correct for that without hosing up 'Lecture Circuit Part 2'? |
[18:53:57] | wagnerrp: | maybe with a '$' to denote the regex end-of-string? |
[18:55:40] | superdump (superdump!n=rob@unaffiliated/superdump) has joined #mythtv-users | |
[18:55:41] | wagnerrp: | the other issue, now im starting to get unicode errors when using the '-D' option |
[18:56:05] | fdlinux: | well i did the test , and mythtv is not writing into the file |
[18:56:17] | iamlindoro: | ATI problem = using Bob deinterlace |
[18:56:26] | iamlindoro: | no need for new drivers, just configure playback profiles properly |
[18:56:34] | wagnerrp: | http://pastebin.ca/1492939 |
[18:56:41] | RDV_Linux: | Correcting for a specific episode is not possible. Only configuration settings for series and formatiing for all episodes in a series *only the series 24 had that episode issue). ttvdb.py should handle "xyz – SxxExx – new episode (1)" and "xyz – SxxExx – new episode (2)" but not "Part 1" and "Part2" |
[18:56:42] | fdlinux: | and if i do it manual with the script , then it writes to the file |
[18:57:42] | wagnerrp: | RDV_Linux: well i was just going to do something like 'The Office: "Lecture Circuit","Lecture Circuit Part 1"' in the [ep_name_massage] section |
[18:59:00] | RDV_Linux: | wagnerrp: That may work changing "Part 1" to "(1)". As for the unicode error give me a second to see if I get that problem. |
[19:00:15] | fdlinux: | made a screenshot of my mythwelcome setup : http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/468/70047309.jpg |
[19:00:59] | wagnerrp: | what did you do, its all gibberish |
[19:01:10] | robbins876: | Anyone have any experience with gnome-lirc-properties? |
[19:01:22] | fdlinux: | anyone know what is wrong with settings? |
[19:01:38] | iamlindoro: | laga, Wow, there *are* a lot of metaquestions today... |
[19:02:04] | robbins876: | I will re-phrase... |
[19:02:33] | iamlindoro: | Hee hee, "Commando" |
[19:02:59] | fdlinux: | someone here that can help me pls ? |
[19:03:12] | robbins876: | using gnome-lirc-properties to setup my philips mceremote...gnome-lirc-properities has an "unlock" button that requires authentication (I assume root)...i type in my PW and it gets denied. I can't unlock the app. Any idea why or how to rectify? |
[19:03:45] | iamlindoro: | robbins876, that's definitely an question for your distro people |
[19:04:12] | iamlindoro: | or you could go old school and just invoke it from a command line... |
[19:04:26] | tanderson: | wagnerrp: did you get my message about that sound issue? |
[19:04:34] | wagnerrp: | yeah, glad its working now |
[19:05:11] | RDV_Linux: | wagnerrp: I am not getting the unicode error see (http://pastebin.ca/1492944). I suspect you may be using an old version of ttvdb.py please replace what you have with v0.9.6 at http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/6242 if you are already using v0.9.6 then I suspect thae account running ttvdb.py does not have a utf8 locale. |
[19:05:37] | wagnerrp: | yeah... 096 recent? i just picked up 095 a week or so ago |
[19:05:39] | RDV_Linux: | s/thae/the/ |
[19:05:49] | tanderson: | wagnerrp: really strange problem it was anyway |
[19:05:53] | iamlindoro: | .0.9.6 is yesterday I think |
[19:06:21] | wagnerrp: | 28 hours ago apparently |
[19:06:49] | RDV_Linux: | If you had 095 then may be it is the locale. I really only resynced the tvdb_api for 096. |
[19:07:18] | wagnerrp: | nope, same issue on 096 |
[19:08:03] | iamlindoro: | xris, don't suppose you would consider a "quick delete" button on mythweb/tv/schedules? |
[19:08:22] | iamlindoro: | erasing a lot of rules can be a pain, entering each, switching to "never record" and saving |
[19:09:09] | wagnerrp: | locale, as in system locale? |
[19:10:21] | RDV_Linux: | wagnerrp: run the command "locale" from the command line from what ever user account or root that you are running ttvdb.py. I will pastebin you what you should see. |

[19:11:31] | RDV_Linux: | wagnerrp: http://pastebin.ca/1492951 they all end in uft8 this is a must. |
[19:11:45] | wagnerrp: | are you sure '$time' is the correct word to be using there |
[19:12:00] | wagnerrp: | because i know the format '%variable%' is used in other formatting strings in mythtv |
[19:12:14] | fdlinux: | that's what all the howto's say |
[19:12:31] | fdlinux: | what should i use then ? |
[19:12:40] | fdlinux: | $time_t ? |
[19:13:23] | wagnerrp: | RDV_Linux: that fixed the error |

[19:58:10] | wagnerrp: | yeah, read the error closely |
[19:58:23] | wagnerrp: | it tells you exactly what the problem is |
[19:58:56] | wagnerrp: | you dont need any more information than what is in that pastebin |
[19:59:52] | dustybin: | i have found out why all the menu text disappears from my frontend |

[20:03:28] | dustybin: | yes low-res, 720x576 |
[20:03:46] | dustybin: | my lord, somebody has started .23 |
[20:04:21] | wagnerrp: | trunk is still trunk, that milestone is just for long term projects not expected to be finished by the 0.22 branch |
[20:04:27] | dustybin: | ok |
[20:04:45] | dustybin: | will the smooth moving cursor go in .23? |
[20:05:00] | wagnerrp: | smooth moving cursor? |
[20:05:32] | dustybin: | yar, when you move and select on mythtv, the pointer moves smoothly |
[20:05:36] | dustybin: | slides |
[20:05:54] | wagnerrp: | as in a themed cursor? |
[20:06:10] | wagnerrp: | for a mouse? |

[20:06:59] | dustybin: | smooth gliding selector |
[20:07:00] | iamlindoro: | and for that, you'll have to ask the man in charge of MythUI |
[20:07:05] | dustybin: | aye ok |
[20:07:31] | wagnerrp: | gbee has talked about animation, but last i heard he has no plans for anything in 0.22 |

[20:34:58] | clever: | depends on how mythtv is started |
[20:34:59] | wagnerrp: | mythUser10: mythtv uses the 'PATH' defined for the mythtv user |
[20:35:04] | wagnerrp: | (usually) |
[20:35:29] | wagnerrp: | the best option would be to simply provide mythtv the full path to the executable |
[20:36:17] | wagnerrp: | other options would be add the folder to the path variable in /etc/profile (systemwide), or to the user rc file in ~/.bashrc or ~/.cshrc or whatever the mythtv shell is |
[20:36:45] | clever: | or edit the init.d script that starts mythbackend/frontend |

[21:07:48] | nighty_: | if i start the mythtv backend, the tv tuner (hauppauge hvr 1900) is not available, if i stop the backendserver it is. |
[21:07:51] | iamlindoro: | nighty_, Myth expects to have exclusive access to tuners, it being unavailable when the backend is running is normal |
[21:08:09] | nighty_: | that was a real fast answer := |

[21:08:35] | nighty_: | :-) |
[21:09:31] | nighty_: | so what can i do now? If the backend is off i cannot watch tv because mythtv cannot connect to the backend and if its turned on the tuner is unavailable? |
[21:09:52] | iamlindoro: | Myth reports it as unavailable when the backend is running? |
[21:09:56] | iamlindoro: | that's a configuration error, then |

[21:19:20] | iamlindoro: | nighty_, It seems you are new to myth, so it may be that you are not familiar enough with the logs to know what counts as weird |
[21:19:30] | iamlindoro: | pastebinning them here (without editing them) might help |
[21:19:43] | iamlindoro: | from the start of the backend, and including an attempt to watch television |

[21:21:09] | iamlindoro: | that is not from the start of the backend |
[21:21:22] | iamlindoro: | need complete logs, not just 18 lines |
[21:21:48] | iamlindoro: | You are also running at a *way* too verbose level, these logs ought to be painful |
[21:22:12] | nighty_: | so i should turn it off better? |
[21:22:35] | iamlindoro: | just use the default verbose level, not all, most, or database |
[21:23:02] | nighty_: | k i clean the logs, change the log level and restart the backend. |
[21:23:07] | nighty_: | I'll be back :) |
[21:24:35] | nighty_: | there is no default, do you mean general? |
[21:24:41] | nighty_: | instead? |
[21:24:44] | iamlindoro: | no I mean not specifying a verbose level |

[21:40:10] | iamlindoro: | erm, I'm assuming you've jumped to editing the rule |
[21:40:33] | iamlindoro: | in which case, setting the rule not to record and saving it prevents any furhter shows that match that rule from recordings |

[21:51:09] | iamlindoro: | What's more, the HVR-1900 is the Euro version of the HVR-1800 IIRC |
[21:51:21] | iamlindoro: | which will not work properly w/ myth in analog due to a driver bug |
[21:51:49] | nighty_: | iamlindoro: maybe its a realtime issue to? |
[21:51:56] | iamlindoro: | There are multiple issues here |
[21:52:12] | iamlindoro: | You have not set up myth correctly, and even when you do, analog won't work properly w/ that card due to the driver issue |
[21:52:52] | nighty_: | hmm k thx so i will not be able to use mythtv for watching tv :/ |
[21:53:03] | iamlindoro: | not until you set it up properly and the driver gets fixed, no |
[21:53:25] | nighty_: | thy anyways |
[21:53:56] | iamlindoro: | np |
[21:54:04] | iamlindoro: | You could use the DVB side, though |
[21:54:14] | iamlindoro: | then you only have to set myth up correctly |
[21:55:01] | nighty_: | iamlindoro: dvb – t doesn't work here |
[21:55:28] | iamlindoro: | Why buy the HVR-1900 if you have no DVB-T? |

[22:04:16] | neoteny_2nd: | when i'm just flicking through channels things are getting recorded and i can watch the recordings under watch recordings. however, the programs which i recorded through the scheduler don't show there. they were recorded because i see the files in /var/lib/mythtv/recordings. how do i watch the recorded shows? |
[22:04:30] | iamlindoro: | Maybe some of the 250 Million they set aside for repeaters will get spent here, I can always hope |
[22:04:31] | awalls: | Then just move to Oakland... :) |

[23:51:51] | iamlindoro: | I can see the value for large collections |
[23:52:55] | RDV_Linux: | I will give it a try and tell you how it helps me, What is the key combination? |
[23:53:03] | iamlindoro: | Ctrl-S |
[23:53:11] | iamlindoro: | Same as the other locations that have incremental search |
[23:53:18] | iamlindoro: | also has a keybinding |
[23:53:28] | iamlindoro: | so you can do what you like with it (you can also reassign the download key, of course) |
[23:54:20] | RDV_Linux: | I had never tried Ctrl-S before many only "M" and now "W". |
[23:54:49] | iamlindoro: | All the inc searches are ctrl-s AFAIK |
[23:54:55] | iamlindoro: | but you can reassign to whatever you like |
[23:55:12] | RDV_Linux: | I look forward to the patch. Thanks for working on it. |
[23:55:20] | iamlindoro: | certainly |
[23:58:42] | wagnerrp: | what is this 'HD-PVR Signal Monitor' patch? |
[23:59:10] | wagnerrp: | presumably its not signal strength like you would see on a tuner card |
[23:59:18] | iamlindoro: | Allows streaming to wait for the HD-PVR to be ready |
