[00:08:48] iamlindoro: Yeah, just get 16 of those

[00:10:04] sphery: at with the $25 discount on each, you're practically /making/ money doing that
[00:13:41] gbee: brad2: which driver?
[00:14:56] kormoc: woah, I'll just need a few usb hubs too!
[00:15:11] ** kormoc likes the free 4gb stick with purchase of a 128 gb stick **
[00:17:22] wagnerrp: seems like it would be cheaper to buy full SSDs at that point
[00:23:17] kormoc: $240 for the cheapest 128 gb SSD
[00:23:40] wagnerrp: thats a good 30% less
[00:23:59] brad2: kormoc: i get that error, when i try to use vdpau in my tv profile
[00:24:12] brad2: and so it reverts back to xv-blitz (or something like that)
[00:24:48] kormoc: brad2, good for you?
[00:24:50] J-e-f-f-A: GreyFoxx: Just compiled with your UPnP patch – Buffalo LinkTheater HD shows all the programs, but attempting to play one just blinks the screen black for 1 second, then returns to the menu.
[00:25:03] sphery: kormoc: but you don't get the free 4GB sticks and you don't save $25
[00:25:14] brad2: oops, got my responses missed, i meant gbee. :) i'm a dolt!
[00:25:32] sphery: brad2: TTBOMK, the fallback from VDPAU to non-VDPAU is broken
[00:25:43] sphery: it's a known issue and being worked on
[00:25:56] brad2: ahhh okay
[00:26:38] brad2: i will keep plugging away, and try to figure out why vdpau doesn't like me :)
[00:27:15] iamlindoro: brad2, gbee asked you what driver version you were running

[00:28:54] J-e-f-f-A: GreyFoxx: with "-v upnp" logging, going into a recording directory (ie: by title, A-Team) logs some messages, but actually selecting a recording for playback shows nothing.
[00:28:59] brad2: Nvidia 190.18
[00:29:06] brad2: i think it was the newest one on the nvidia website
[00:29:21] J-e-f-f-A: !seen GreyFoxx
[00:29:21] MythLogBot: GreyFoxx is here and has been idle for 4 hours 15 minutes 34 seconds
[00:29:48] sphery: s/newest/newest beta/
[00:30:14] brad2: should i revert to something older?
[00:30:18] brad2: what do most people use?
[00:31:17] iamlindoro: 180.60
[00:31:34] brad2: okay i will try that
[00:31:36] brad2: thanks for the tip!
[00:31:45] wagnerrp: the 185 and 190 series drivers are known to cause issues
[00:32:05] wagnerrp: and the 190 series only entered public beta a week or so ago
[00:32:57] sphery: and has already caused people to post the advice "disable UseEvents", which goes against everything we've been trying to get users to do for the last 3 years
[00:33:42] brad2: yeah i should have thought more about which driver i was d/ling... it never even crossed my mind. Guess I have a bit of learning before i'm a "trunk user" :)
[00:33:51] sphery: not saying that you should enable UseEvents with 190.x, but saying that if UseEvents is broken, chances are the drivers are way more broken than any we've seen in a long time
[00:34:13] sphery: unless, of course, nvidia is completely redesigning the drivers or something
[00:34:17] ** wagnerrp just stabbed himself with a pair of scissors **
[00:34:45] sphery: should get the school-house scissors with the round tips
[00:35:06] sphery: or the airline-approved plastic scissors with round tips
[00:35:20] wagnerrp: nah, i sliced open my finger on some broken glass about half an hour ago
[00:35:33] wagnerrp: and was trying to cut off the dead flap of skin
[00:35:49] J-e-f-f-A: GreyFoxx: Humm... might be my system, I reverted the change, and still can't play stuff via UPnP... ugh. :-(
[00:36:00] sphery: (I saw a woman knitting on a flight. She got to the point she had to cut the yard, got out some plastic scissors, and gnawed at the yarn for >5mins... It was rather depressing to think that she has to go through that.)
[00:36:10] wagnerrp: seems its rather difficult trying to type without using your index finger
[00:38:11] J-e-f-f-A: wagnerrp: She probably would have had better luck using a house key to cut the yarn...

[00:38:35] wagnerrp: 'sphery' does not start with a 'w'
[00:38:51] clever: J-e-f-f-A: just wait until the knitting needles get declared as a lethal weapon
[00:38:59] J-e-f-f-A: wagnerrp: oops! ;-) sphery ^^^
[00:39:02] clever: if youve seen enough csi, you know they can kill

[00:39:23] wagnerrp: oh come on... i could kill you with a CD
[00:39:43] wagnerrp: and it wouldnt be all that difficult
[00:39:51] clever: wagnerrp: heck, you dont even need a weapon, people can kill each other just fine with there bare hands
[00:39:54] J-e-f-f-A: No kidding – anything could be a weapon... ^^ no kidding, snap it in half, and you've got some pretty sharp pieces...
[00:40:11] wagnerrp: clever: that take a bit of time
[00:40:21] wagnerrp: most people probably couldnt pull off breaking a neck
[00:40:28] clever: depends on how strong you are and where you aim for
[00:40:31] wagnerrp: and strangling someone takes a good minute or so
[00:41:04] clever: stabbing somebody doesnt instantly take him out either
[00:41:10] kuroneko_ (kuroneko_!n=kuroneko@c-11c2e455.02-519-6c6b701.cust.bredbandsbolaget.se) has quit (Client Quit)
[00:41:28] J-e-f-f-A: sphery: I'm beginning to think my Db is more 'borked' than I thought from that mistake a few months ago – since upnp isn't working properly either... :-(
[00:41:54] sphery: did you try the partial restore?
[00:42:05] wagnerrp: J-e-f-f-A: i wasnt thinking of snapping it in half
[00:42:07] J-e-f-f-A: sphery: Not yet – just got home about 30 mins ago.
[00:42:19] sphery: see if it helps
[00:42:21] wagnerrp: just clip off one side to get a sharp edge
[00:42:40] wagnerrp: and now you have a palm rest and a nice finger hold to get a strong grip
[00:43:00] J-e-f-f-A: wagnerrp: sharper edges then... ;-) ^^ yeah, basically what I was thinking. Could even snap it twice for an arrow-head edge...

[00:58:07] brad2: thanks for the help guys, apparently i'm using an unsanctioned nvidia card
[00:58:18] brad2: so vdpau is out! (for the short term)
[00:58:42] iamlindoro: Ah, must be a GTX
[00:58:45] wagnerrp: unsanctioned? what do you have?
[00:58:51] iamlindoro: not so much unsanctioned as incapable
[00:58:57] iamlindoro: 8800 GTX
[00:59:09] iamlindoro: Hardware for VDPAU just ain't there
[00:59:21] iamlindoro: can replace it for $30 and have it working nicely, though
[00:59:23] wagnerrp: yeah, the GTX, and GTS 320 and 640 dont have the hardware to do it
[00:59:35] wagnerrp: and theres no reason to be running such a card in a mythtv box anyway
[01:00:12] jpabq (jpabq!n=jpabq@c-98-230-202-207.hsd1.nm.comcast.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[01:00:47] brad2: yeah i would agree :) I was just using my desktop in dual boot, to play around with .22.
[01:00:54] brad2: more as a learning box than anything
[01:01:01] wagnerrp: fair enough
[01:01:39] brad2: will definitely get a new card for it though to test out vdpau, i am far too jealous of iamlindoro's 13.5mbps caps
[01:01:39] J-e-f-f-A: Humm... how do I display the existing collation in mysql to verify it's right...
[01:01:39] brad2: haha
[01:02:38] wagnerrp: you have an 8800GTX, and you dont have a matching processor that can do those rips in software?
[01:02:50] wagnerrp: you buy a low end quad core or something?
[01:02:55] brad2: i have a 2.4ghz dual core
[01:03:07] brad2: i can ALMOST do 13.5 in software
[01:03:15] wagnerrp: would have thought you had something beefier to go with that card
[01:03:23] iamlindoro: 2.4 might come close for VBR on HD-PVR stuff, but far from CBR
[01:03:28] brad2: if i kick down the bit rate to 5–10, it seems to work
[01:03:55] brad2: i may have picked a bad cpu at the time, but it was about 2 years ago, i think it was decently high end
[01:03:58] brad2: can't remember
[01:04:15] iamlindoro: 2.4 is fine, HD-PVR is a special case
[01:04:16] wagnerrp: well 2.4 was the low end of the original large cache Core2s
[01:04:21] sphery: iamlindoro: #6778
[01:04:54] iamlindoro: Wheeee
[01:04:55] wagnerrp: you probably have plenty of headroom to OC that chip a bit
[01:04:56] GreyFoxx: nvidia+hue = poo
[01:05:04] brad2: yeah for the most part i have been pleased with it, the 2.4 combined with 8800gtx, and i had no probles with any games.
[01:05:12] brad2: OC makes me nervous, haha
[01:05:29] J-e-f-f-A: GreyFoxx: found it... 'select collation('mythconverg');' returns 'latin1_swedish_ci'
[01:07:49] sphery: J-e-f-f-A: note that there's a server collation (which sets default for new DB's), a database collation (which sets defaults for new tables), a table collation (which sets defaults for columns), and a column collation
[01:08:07] sphery: all of those got messed up when it started to convert your database encoding
[01:08:27] sphery: easiest way to fix it is to start over with a clean schema
[01:08:34] sphery: and then import the minimum data
[01:10:22] J-e-f-f-A: sphery: Would I be able to do a backup, drop the DB, re-create it, and import all, or is there garbage that will re-import?
[01:10:46] sphery: if you import all, you'll create another broken schema and then import corrupt data
[01:10:55] J-e-f-f-A: Doh!
[01:11:10] sphery: you backup the DB, drop the DB, start mythtv-setup (which creates a brand new, correct schema), do a partial restore
[01:11:26] sphery: then go to mythtv-setup and configure, then mythfrontend and configure
[01:11:28] J-e-f-f-A: how much data will I lose with a partial restore?
[01:11:35] sphery: then to each plugin and configure/get data
[01:12:01] sphery: you'll save all of your recordings and recording rules (though they may not all work properly--depending on the severity of the breakage)
[01:12:07] sphery: but you'll lose all your configuration
[01:12:23] J-e-f-f-A: Ok, I can deal with that.
[01:12:34] sphery: but on the bright side, it will force you to look through all the settings, which means you'll see all the ones that were added since you originally configured many years ago
[01:12:42] sphery: so you can set them to your preferences rather than defaults
[01:13:17] sphery: make sure you use the restore script for the partial import, though
[01:13:23] sphery: the instructions in the HOWTO are broken
[01:13:29] sphery: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Database_Backup_and_Restore
[01:15:23] J-e-f-f-A: sphery: Thanks. I don't know if I'll get it done tonight, but I'll definitely work on it.
[01:15:33] sphery: good luck
[01:17:03] J-e-f-f-A: Thanks. ;-)
[01:17:15] brad2: on another machine i have laying around, i have a AMD Athlon 64 X2 4000+
[01:17:29] brad2: if i got a proper vdpau card, it would probably handle these hd caps?
[01:18:01] wagnerrp: using VDPAU, just about anything north of a pentium 1 could handle HDPVR content
[01:18:15] superdug: brad2: sphery is a firm believer in using a computer thats just laying around for myth

[01:18:44] brad2: excellent, that can be my weekend project :)
[01:18:47] wagnerrp: so the only thing you need the CPU for is some data streaming, and audio decoding
[01:19:09] wagnerrp: now that's not to say the OSD on such a machine would be painful to use

[01:19:18] wagnerrp: s/would/wouldnt/
[01:19:27] brad2: oooh good point
[01:19:53] wagnerrp: and thats also not saying VDPAU is the perfect solution
[01:19:58] superdug: sphery: hence why I recommended you and your love of underpowered myth frontends
[01:20:04] wagnerrp: it tends to hiccup on any flaws in the bitstream
[01:20:25] wagnerrp: and depending on the severity, may drop out of playback all together
[01:20:56] brad2: well that's the life of a test system :)
[01:21:20] brad2: but i want to thank you all, in spite of all my super low level questions, you guys have been awesome
[01:21:27] brad2: i feel like i have learned alot over the past few

[02:37:38] josh_: I dont know how to troubleshoot kernel panics though. I do belive your problem is related to OSX (or whatever Mac OS your'e running)
[02:38:08] superdug: josh_: well that's the thing ... there's no "last breath" or relevant information when it panics
[02:38:11] josh_: Try playing back the clip with mplayer, rather than VLC
[02:38:29] iamlindoro: kernel panic strongly implies driver issues or initial signs of hardware (RAM) failure
[02:38:36] josh_: superdug, you'll have to set up some sort of debugging mode I think.
[02:38:46] superdug: it just turns the screen into a big power button and tells you to reboot in a couple of dozen different languages
[02:38:59] superdug: iamlindoro: memtest for 24 hours reported no such errors
[02:39:11] josh_: Typical Mac, no problem getting the point across when the hardware dies :)
[02:39:31] iamlindoro: superdug, Good thing that wasn't the only thing I posited then
[02:39:42] josh_: superdug, prime95 would be my next trial
[02:41:13] iamlindoro: plus, System RAM isn't the only kind of ram that can get nuked
[02:41:30] superdug: iamlindoro: yeah ... seems to be an mpeg-2 problem though
[02:41:43] superdug: going through some stuff with the hackint0sh users
[02:41:44] iamlindoro: extraordinarily doubtful
[02:41:59] iamlindoro: so.. it's not an actual Mac?
[02:42:06] superdug: of course not :-)
[02:42:22] iamlindoro: ugh
[02:42:32] iamlindoro: nobody is going to be able to help you with this problem, then
[02:42:53] iamlindoro: IME the Mac port works fine.. but that relies on you using the actual hardware all the drivers/software were written for
[02:43:10] superdug: short of the EFI ... hardware is the same
[02:43:15] iamlindoro: What hardware?
[02:43:26] superdug: I installed from the Leopard retail disk I bought
[02:43:34] iamlindoro: What *specific* hardware
[02:43:53] superdug: core2duo, intel gma video, sata harddrive
[02:44:03] iamlindoro: That is not specific
[02:44:41] iamlindoro: Unless you are running on the *exact* mobo chipset and *exact* GPU chipset used (down to the model numbers), you are *not* on the same hardware

[03:02:24] dewman: Anyone using the hd homerun?
[03:02:41] iamlindoro: many, many, people.. but you should probably ask an actual question
[03:03:07] josh_: preferably a pointed question.
[03:03:55] dewman: I was thinking about getting one....Just wanted to know if they were simple to setup,use,quality of encoding...
[03:04:15] iamlindoro: They are easy to set up, and do no encoding at all
[03:04:31] iamlindoro: digital doesn't work that way-- Your broadcaster encodes the material, digital tuners just dump it to disk
[03:04:41] josh_: dewman, just remember that it's two digital-only tuners
[03:05:11] josh_: Most basic cable servies are mostly analog channels
[03:05:11] sphery: or dump it to the network, as the case may be
[03:05:56] sphery: dewman: and it only picks up unencrypted digital
[03:06:11] sphery: and most non-basic cable is encrypted
[03:06:28] dewman: I was thinking of just getting one for ota...PBS recordings for the kiddo....
[03:06:28] sphery: i.e. you're likely to be able to get your local OTA channels via cable with an HDHR
[03:06:43] sphery: for OTA, it would work well

[03:08:12] dewman: I've been reading the wiki and it seems like this might just be the best route.
[03:09:45] dewman: So since its already in mpeg2, can I take those recordings and dump them to a dvd?
[03:10:01] iamlindoro: Depends
[03:10:06] sphery: you'd have to recode them
[03:10:14] iamlindoro: if they're non-DVD resolutions, they need transcoding
[03:10:22] iamlindoro: if they're DVD supported resolution and bitrate, they need remuxing
[03:10:30] sphery: they will almost definitely be the wrong size (DVD maxes out at 720x480 for NTSC) and will not contain DVD nav packets
[03:10:37] iamlindoro: so either way, it can be either a small amount of work, or a large amount
[03:10:51] sphery: MythArchive can help, though
[03:11:12] sphery: however, in many cases, you'll find that remuxing can cause all sorts of audio/video sync issues
[03:11:39] sphery: and you'll find that it's often a large amount of work
[03:12:11] ** iamlindoro is a fan of ffmpeg -i infile -f dvd outfile.mpg and then some dvdauthor jiggery pokery **
[03:12:43] sphery: but only when it doesn't require resampling to a smaller resolution, right?
[03:12:59] iamlindoro: no, the ffmpeg command transcodes as necessary
[03:13:03] sphery: ahh
[03:13:18] sphery: thought you had to explicitly specify that stuff
[03:13:31] iamlindoro: the dvd template handles it
[03:13:53] iamlindoro: and sorry, it's -target ntsc-dvd

[04:18:32] Shadow__X: :)
[04:18:32] wagnerrp: with no clue just what im supposed to do with it
[04:18:54] wagnerrp: presumably, theres an option on the boot-dvd to recover off a networked backup
[04:19:13] Shadow__X: yeah there is
[04:19:14] wagnerrp: there was some menu option to make a recovery disk
[04:19:31] Shadow__X: except this backup would be for a netbook
[04:19:38] wagnerrp: whats the difference
[04:19:44] iamlindoro: norton ghost
[04:19:49] wagnerrp: that just means its going to be an even smaller hard drive, and easier to back up
[04:20:04] wagnerrp: yeah... you can usually find deals on norton ghost for next to free
[04:20:45] wagnerrp: they pay you $5 to take it after half a dozen of rebates or so
[04:20:47] Shadow__X: wagnerrp, the difference is no cdrom

[04:32:18] iamlindoro: kormoc, Definitely seems you are, in the mythtv part, missing the patch to mythmainwindow.h
[04:32:23] iamlindoro: (and .cpp)
[04:32:26] wagnerrp: Shadow__X: looks like you *can* make a USB recovery disk using some ass backwards route.... http://multidisciplinary.wordpress.com/2009/0 . . . ndows-7-x64/
[04:32:40] iamlindoro: kormoc, Can you check mythtv/libs/libmythui/mythmainwindow.h, line 20?
[04:32:50] iamlindoro: kormoc, should be typedef int (*MediaPlayCallback)(const QString &, const QString &, const QString &, const QString &, const QString &, int, int, int, const QString &);
[04:33:12] iamlindoro: and if that's there, then it seems that's not the version you're compiling plugins against
[04:33:21] kormoc: nope, it's not that
[04:33:25] ** kormoc peers at his patches **
[04:33:58] kormoc: oh wait
[04:33:59] iamlindoro: looks like that part of my patch got missed on your end somehow
[04:34:00] kormoc: it is
[04:34:16] iamlindoro: find the line that goes "bool HandleMedia(const QString& handler, const QString& mrl,"
[04:34:21] iamlindoro: and pastebin the next 15 or so
[04:34:22] kormoc: they're the same
[04:34:44] wagnerrp: you know... after tinkering with the backend protocol, im understanding just how vitally important bindings are

[04:34:58] Shadow__X: wagnerrp, that link isnt looking good
[04:35:07] wagnerrp: ive managed to crash my backend about half a dozen times from bad inputs
[04:35:21] iamlindoro: kormoc, It seems like you are not compiling mythvideo against that library, then
[04:35:27] kormoc: iamlindoro, the no matching function call is showing the wrong signature
[04:35:37] wagnerrp: Shadow__X: yeah... well im not trying to type it out again
[04:35:43] wagnerrp: you can spend the 3 minutes on google if you want
[04:35:46] kormoc: or my patch isn't applying correctly
[04:35:50] Shadow__X: :)
[04:35:56] iamlindoro: kormoc, Yeah, there's some other version of that library that it's picking up first
[04:36:47] iamlindoro: something is definitely funky there
[04:36:49] kormoc: nah, it's not applying correctly, whoops
[04:37:50] iamlindoro: kormoc, So a hunk didn't get applied?
[04:37:52] kormoc: aye
[04:38:09] iamlindoro: I can create a diff against 21059 if you like
[04:38:26] iamlindoro: everything *should* apply clean with no offsets, so it confuses me if a hunk got rejected
[04:38:38] kormoc: nah, it was a stupid mistake on my end
[04:38:45] kormoc: I had the strip offset wrong
[04:38:49] iamlindoro: ahhhh
[04:38:54] iamlindoro: that would do it :)
[04:39:16] kormoc: and in my haste, I didn't actually validate the patch was good before continuing on the compile :P
[04:39:33] iamlindoro: Heh, should (hopefully) work this time
[04:39:58] kormoc: yup, compiled and happy :)
[04:40:02] iamlindoro: whew
[04:40:03] iamlindoro: :)
[04:40:37] kormoc: sorry bout the noise!
[04:40:41] iamlindoro: Not at all
[04:40:52] iamlindoro: you can apologize by trying the new shinies and saying nice things ;)
[04:41:12] iamlindoro: Graphite is probably the theme that is best tuned for them, btw
[04:42:07] iamlindoro: With any luck you have some TV files in your mythvideo stuff, named in some sort of sane way, and you can see the fancy auto-parsing of filenames
[04:42:30] kormoc: Still need to fix the audio yet before I can really play
[04:42:34] iamlindoro: ie "Lost 5x01 – Subtitle.mpg" will become Title=Lost, Subtitle=Subtitle, Season=5, Episode=1
[04:43:44] iamlindoro: And Ctrl-S in Mythvideo for the search, and... well, you can read the ticket and see all the other stuff

[05:56:46] kormoc: Oh my, VDPAU is rocking this HDPVR test samples, 3% cpu for 13.5 mbit
[06:01:21] jblack: kormoc: I think hit select/ok on an input box?
[06:01:37] kormoc: hrm, that's what I thought too, but it's only putting a space in it
[06:08:12] FisherPrice70: should my DVB tuner be listed in a lspci (it is a pci card)
[06:12:24] kormoc: yes
[06:13:26] FisherPrice70: thought so

[16:54:34] sphery: gbee: I think danielk22's change is meant mainly for the fact that version.cpp is always re-created/re-compiled, so after compiling with a normal user (and getting version info in there), then trying to make install as root when root doesn't have permissions, it just skips the re-create/re-compile.

Right now I wanted to be a purist but I did the coding to support any combo of SG's or not. I am waiting for the direction on whether 0.22 will support any, Videos only or all SG's before releasing Jamu SG support.
[17:17:42] RDV_Linux: Complex testing is involved in supporting a number of combinations and it not seem worth it when the decision had not been made.
[17:20:04] RDV_Linux: iamlindoro: That reminds me have you switched to the latest version of Jamu or are you still using the hacked one for the (-MW) option "Download graphics for Scheduled and Recorded"?
[17:20:43] kormoc: In my case, I have a SG defined that exactly the same as the non-SG, only one directory, it's kinda sucky that I can't run Jamu without wiping out the storage groups
[17:26:43] kormoc: RDV_Linux, and in your file types, why not just honor the videotypes table?
[17:28:40] RDV_Linux: kormoc: You are naming one of the tough coding decisions I faced with SG's. I used a rule that SG's were king and overrode any FE video or path settings. This has more to do with people having multiple backends and the FE only applied to one of the backends. iamlindoro commented that he had some code/patched that allowed his set up to ignore the FE directories.

[17:42:10] kormoc: Which one? The new or the old? That's the new one, fresh from my DVD :)
[17:42:16] sphery: there's a valid tmdb page for it (and imdb) – tt0395251
[17:42:20] kormoc: I enjoyed the new one a lot better then the old one
[17:42:23] sphery: 2005 version?
[17:42:27] kormoc: Aye
[17:42:51] sphery: Yeah, I only get the shows that are old enough to appear on broadcast tv :)
[17:43:30] sphery: hmmm... Guess I didn't record it...

[17:46:03] RDV_Linux: kormoc: How are you running jamu? Are you using the options (-MI)? I gave that filename a try and it was OK.

[18:02:32] RDV_Linux: kormac: I tried the call (in test code no Jamu involved) with the "The Producers" as a title and then with a empty "" sting and in both cases no abort. Of course in the first case a number of matches were returned vut in the second case no matched (empty array). One other odd thing is that my own Jamu test found matches in TMDB. That should mean that IMDB does not need to get searched.
[18:02:43] RDV_Linux: Give me some more time to look,
[18:02:54] kormoc: could be my tmdb.py being broken?

[18:29:47] gbee: from the ffmpeg documentation
[18:29:53] sphery: yeah, seems real

[18:30:35] iamlindoro: so aa3 for ATRAC apparently
[18:30:51] gbee: ok done
[18:31:47] gbee: real audio stuff is tricky, since it can be a text redirect to a stream, which I don't expect ffmpeg will support
[18:33:33] sphery: heh, "real audio" isn't necessarily a "real" audio file :)
[18:34:09] gbee: if anyone has seen .ram containing audio I'll add it, but most of the stuff I see is just a playlist format
[18:34:45] AndyCap: so OpenMG with gzip could become ZOMG? :)

[18:54:00] iamlindoro: Yeah, totally agreed
[18:54:14] iamlindoro: The restorers are a+, though, they're already cutting out the baseboard drywall

[20:16:17] sphery: for 200 pounds, you should be able to get a nice combined frontend/backend
[20:16:28] sphery: where nice means with a real CPU
[20:16:55] Stroller: Ooops
[20:16:57] ** kormoc keeps thinking that 200 pounds is a very heavy mythbox **
[20:17:02] Stroller: is that aimed at me?
[20:17:03] sphery: (of course, I'm basis this statement on purchasing in the US with an equivalent of 200 pounds)
[20:17:08] iamlindoro: kormoc: Mine's 50 pounds max ;)
[20:17:31] sphery: kormoc: but when he accidentally deleted all his blu-ray rips, it was only about 12
[20:17:37] ** kormoc laughs **
[20:17:38] iamlindoro: sphery: their tech prices, for better or worse, tend to be 1:1 w/ our dollar
[20:17:42] sphery: that data is heavy
[20:17:48] iamlindoro: sphery: So think $200–250
[20:18:01] sphery: For $250, I could do it.

[20:18:32] iamlindoro: from. scratch.
[20:18:53] sphery: OK, $800 for capture cards and storage. Then $200 for the rest.
[20:19:28] iamlindoro: Stroller: Probably-- I think if you spend 200 Pounds that you will have a box that is horribly compromised
[20:19:38] Stroller: Hmmmn...
[20:19:41] ** kormoc ponders why his dvd playback on the mini is skippy **
[20:19:42] iamlindoro: Stroller: And *don't listen* when someone tells you you can "do it all" w/ an ION box

[20:20:52] iamlindoro: Stroller: I'm sure that some of our actual UK residents in here will chime in, but I would tentatively guess to get acceptable performance, and to buy a capture device, some disk, and a decent processor, you are probably looking at closer to 300–400

[20:21:29] sphery: Yeah, my $200-$250 claim was completely ignoring capture and HDD's
[20:21:32] XLV: maybe someone will introduce some updated MoD mb that can take those new culv
[20:21:49] Stroller: I always kinda understood a PIII 1ghz would do the job for SD
[20:22:24] sphery: do the job != do the job well
[20:22:31] iamlindoro: Stroller: You are not in control of the bitrate or resolution of your freeview/freesat TV... meaning you need to plan for the high end of what it could be
[20:22:54] orogor: humm i just deleted my TNT source , and i am trying to have only an ALL source
[20:23:10] Stroller: iamlindoro: I see
[20:23:13] iamlindoro: A PIII 1 Ghz will *barely* manage SD if you are using an analog capture card and can control the bitrate to something relatively low-- but digital reception means having to account for the upper limits of whatever you might be sent
[20:23:23] Stroller: Ok
[20:23:26] sphery: I agree with iamlindoro, though--if you try to do Myth for less money than cable-/sat-co PVR's or TiVo's or WinMCE or ... , you will likely be very disappointed with the results
[20:23:44] orogor: how are channel number mapped to each channels on each cards? for iptv i know it works by marching channel name on both playlist and mythtv
[20:23:49] Stroller: And I guess STD have dedicated decoding chips, huh?
[20:24:05] orogor: for dvb-t cards how does it works?
[20:24:25] iamlindoro: Stroller: And speaking with recent experience for a consulting client who wanted to use Apple TVs (more or less 1 Ghz Pentium Ms, better than a PIII), for frontend only, the performance was so horrendous that we are now re-doing it from scratch with adequate hardware.
[20:24:45] iamlindoro: Stroller: STDs have topical ointments and embarrassing mornings after
[20:24:53] iamlindoro: STBs have hardware decoding, yes
[20:25:02] Stroller: lol
[20:25:03] Stroller: Thanks

[20:25:37] iamlindoro: Was probably pumping water out of my server room
[20:25:48] Stroller: lolol
[20:25:50] Stroller: It's ok
[20:25:56] Shadow__X: i a dell mini 10v is definitely a decent size to watch sd recordings
[20:26:07] Stroller: And sorry to hear you have that trouble, iamlindoro
[20:26:14] iamlindoro: Stroller: Not as sorry as I!  ;)
[20:26:18] Stroller: lol
[20:26:19] Stroller: Indeed
[20:26:29] gbee: sphery: nah, £200 is enough, or was a year ago
[20:26:46] gbee: damn, there I go replying to old stuff again
[20:26:47] iamlindoro: Stroller: Anyway, IMO the investment is well worth it, just don't want you to slice it so thin that after that expenditure you end up with something useless, or so poorly performing as to be useless
[20:27:02] sphery: but wouldn't get much (if any) storage or capture cards
[20:27:39] sphery: Stroller: and a need to start over from scratch or switch to the commercial system after wasting your time/money trying to do a cut-rate myth box
[20:28:52] gbee: http://miffteevee.co.uk/build/ – it's somewhat out of date now and the price of that case has gone up, but equally, other parts have come down in price
[20:28:54] Stroller: The thing is that I was just like "oh, the Freeview box is dead.... £30 to replace it, or £80 for a PVR..."
[20:29:05] gbee: but at £200 you'd need to get the tuner's second hand
[20:29:13] sphery: yeah
[20:29:16] Stroller: So it's kinda a case of not bothering
[20:29:25] Stroller: I'd do it in a minute for myself
[20:29:32] Stroller: But for my ma?
[20:29:34] sphery: Stroller: I hear stuarta has a really nice DVB-S card he no longer needs... ;)
[20:29:43] sphery: (it's broken--just a joke)
[20:29:45] Stroller: I don't know that she'd notice the difference
[20:30:02] iamlindoro: Depends on the mother, I guess
[20:30:13] Stroller: Here I'm just mostly watching DVDs because I haven't gotten round to sorting an aerial or Sky dish
[20:30:16] iamlindoro: I am a huge myth proponent, but I am very careful about who I recommend it to
[20:30:48] sphery: I have only recommended it to one person. 5 years later, I'm still supporting the installation.
[20:30:54] meshe: it can be a bit of work, but it's quite rewarding when set up right
[20:30:58] gbee: Stroller: I wouldn't build a mythtv box for family unless you really know what you are getting into, mythtv isn't really ready for the average end-user yet, the UI is nowhere near as friendly as it should be etc
[20:30:58] sphery: (though it's not much work to support)
[20:31:24] sphery: yeah, and it's nowhere near as pretty as xb mc
[20:31:46] Stroller: XB MC?
[20:31:47] iamlindoro: sphery: you forgot to close your <humor> tag
[20:31:53] sphery: that was a bad joke
[20:32:12] meshe: Stroller: it's not a pvr
[20:32:21] sphery: lot of people say that xb mc (without space--just to prevent the hordes from descending on the channel) should replace mythfrontend
[20:32:46] gbee: I've setup a combined fe/be for my parents, I'm just saying I wouldn't recommend it ...
[20:32:48] sphery: IMHO, it has all the eye candy you could desire without any of the functionality getting in the way
[20:32:49] laga: lots of people also smoke crack. can we have a venn diagram?
[20:33:07] brad2: i tried to set up a mythtv install for my parents
[20:33:08] meshe: gbee: i have too, and they love it
[20:33:12] Stroller: lolol @ laga
[20:33:14] brad2: i ended up just taking the hardware back to my house
[20:33:14] brad2: haha
[20:33:19] Stroller: Ok, thanks, guys.
[20:33:23] sphery: laga: strange... other Venn diagram's I'd seen have 2 circles... This has only one?
[20:33:28] Stroller: I guess we might as well just close this convo now
[20:33:34] laga: sphery: wow. plotter must be broken
[20:34:16] gbee: meshe: to be fair, most of the problems they've had aren't mythtv's fault but it's the sort of stuff that you'd probably not see in a PVR with a closed hardware environment etc
[20:34:46] meshe: gbee: what kind of problems did they have?
[20:34:58] gbee: latest problem has been that the DVD drive has dropped a mm in the chassis so the tray is no longer opening 50% of the time
[20:35:25] laga: an m&m?
[20:35:27] laga: oh
[20:35:30] laga: a millimetre..
[20:35:37] meshe: my parents have had problems
[20:35:39] ** iamlindoro would like an M&M :( **
[20:35:56] laga: iamlindoro: i brought a bag to a party the other day. should have said something!
[20:35:57] meshe: they were cutting the power to the mythbox at the wall and corrupted the db multiple times
[20:36:01] gbee: meshe: but graphics driver dropouts, a failure of the box to reboot cleanly when powered on/off (cards swapping places), network failing to come up, ubuntu's screwed up DPMS causing the screen to blank etc
[20:36:11] iamlindoro: <-- has not eaten anything but salad, fruit salad, and chicken breast for weeks

[20:36:49] gbee: meshe: yeah, that's been an issue too, trying to persuade them not to just switch it off at the wall ...
[20:37:01] meshe: gbee: the dpms thing is the first thing i turn off when doing a mythbuntu install now
[20:37:13] yfaykya: Where do I look to debug "Video frame buffering failed too many times." when trying to play a recording with trunk?

[20:38:35] laga: sphery: as a non-american, i have recently discovered peanut butter and i'm in love
[20:38:39] yfaykya: gbee: analogue s/w encoder? It was recorded from a pvr150
[20:39:09] sphery: laga: and they even make some that's made from peanuts, instead of salt (and it actually tastes like peanuts)

[20:48:38] sphery: yeah, I won't update this one since I don't know non-US xmltv setup
[20:49:15] gbee: j-rod: yeah we need someone familiar with mythtv to update the wiki, maybe someone with writing experience, can you think of anyone who would know how to write a good guide on configuring and using mythtv?
[20:49:23] j-rod: in completely unrelated news... why is it that the vast majority of people having massive problems figuring out how to use lirc drivers build from cvs are ubuntu users?
[20:49:24] sphery: but things like "In North America at least, there is a tradition for for channels to be on the same frequency everywhere. So channel 7 is on the same channel in all homes across the country." are really weird

[20:51:28] sphery: j-rod: I'm assuming the lack of help on this is because of my misunderstanding of terms/repos... On http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Debugging , I've been trying to get distro users to put in the info about repos/package names for debug symbols for packaged versions of Myth. Is it still ATrpms or Fusion or ???
[20:51:30] backslash7: mixed
[20:51:54] j-rod: sphery: both ATrpms and RPM Fusion provide mythtv packages
[20:52:25] j-rod: sphery: one sec, lemme check on something...
[20:52:27] sphery: So there should be another section, "Debugging with RPM Fusion packages"?
[20:52:46] iamlindoro: laga: Heh, yikes
[20:53:08] iamlindoro: laga: Good for all the people who choose to use the (very outdated) CentOS for its "stability"
[20:53:40] ** meshe registers cent0s.org **
[20:53:40] laga: yeah..
[20:54:07] j-rod: sphery: yeah, might well need to be separate
[20:54:24] sphery: So, Red Hat found that you can't make a living giving a distro away for free. Now CentOS is proving that you can't make a living selling a distro for $0.01. Do we try $0.02, next, or what?
[20:54:27] iamlindoro: I guess in a sense a project whose lead refuses to respond to any request for change is very VERY stable :)
[20:54:47] heyheyhey: i think changeset (21063) is broken
[20:54:49] j-rod: sphery: looks like atrpms is publishing -debuginfo packages now too, so that's good... I dunno if the atrpms repo config adds the debuginfo repos by default or not though
[20:55:05] laga: "Recently he put an anonymizing service on the domain, so that nobody from the outside can see who that domain belongs to." hahaha

[20:57:26] heyheyhey: yes

[20:57:47] gbee: heyheyhey: I can categorically state that 21063 was not responsible for your problem
[20:58:00] heyheyhey: i mean yes i did do distclean

[21:36:02] j-rod: I've been beating my head against the keyboard for a few days trying to decipher generated assembly between different versions of gcc and with different options
[21:36:22] j-rod: I think gcc is being stupid and optimizing out something it should *not* be optimizing out
[21:36:39] clever: j-rod: sometimes its the smallest thing
[21:36:57] clever: one of the problems i was beating my head over a month ago, was a single + missing from the regex
[21:37:19] sphery: j-rod: like the GCC optimization/bug that led to a whole kernel release

[21:38:00] sphery: http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.30.3
[21:38:27] j-rod: so "if (pe + SPINSZ > pe)" is optimized out as always true (pe is a pointer)

[22:04:08] krisb: good point

[22:05:36] gbee: what is wrong with these people? "I know, I'll start my own project, never mind that there are a dozen media centre applications already ..."

[22:06:55] iamlindoro: Wow, it is really repulsive
[22:07:28] sphery: did they keep with the plan to make it Debian-approved (license-/patent-wise)?
[22:07:33] iamlindoro: All basically doable in MythUI minus the cross-menus
[22:07:37] gbee: cesman: ahh, so the pay for codecs one
[22:07:54] gbee: iamlindoro: makes me want to get the music UI done though
[22:07:55] krisb: hmm
[22:08:15] krisb: when I first steup a mediapc I think there was only mythtv and freevo
[22:08:20] krisb: and freevo didn't do tv
[22:08:23] iamlindoro: gbee: I look forward to it-- will probably anchor Graphite at .22 and start playing with something else slowly as you add the eye candy stuff
[22:08:41] sphery: Does freevo do TV, now? THought it did?
[22:08:54] krisb: dunno, that was like 5 years ago or something
[22:09:01] sphery: ahhh
[22:09:13] krisb: never had to look for something else after mythtv, anyway
[22:09:35] sphery: yeah, has TV support, now
[22:09:56] krisb: nah lets all move to Nero media center or something
[22:09:58] sphery: good, since I've recommended several people who wanted MythTV to use MPlayer as a media player use Freevo, instead

[22:13:06] krisb: but if it supports mkv containers, H264 and VDPAU fine then I guess its settled
[22:13:13] gbee: there is a lot of polish that could be applied to screens with clever use of statetypes, or addition of information, a re-write of myththemedmenu to support more interesting menu configurations, or all the animation work (end result excites me, the work does not)
[22:13:36] sphery: backslash7: which all comes down to, "Take what you learned when you misconfigured it the first time, today, and start over but this time do it right."  :)
[22:13:40] backslash7: How old is the MythTV project?
[22:13:47] krisb: but does it support xrandr extensions to set the refresh rate to the same as content fps? ie. 24p?
[22:13:48] iamlindoro: 8 yearsish
[22:13:59] sphery: backslash7: really, though, you only have to reconfigure video sources/capture cards/input connections/channels

[22:14:23] backslash7: YOU will leave garbage?
[22:14:46] sphery: well, the guy who wrote that likes to be a bit overly dramatic
[22:14:59] backslash7: why isn't mythtv able to handle it's data properly, it knows what it inserts so it can delete it too, right?
[22:15:04] gbee: backslash7: where's that feature?
[22:15:04] backslash7: I see
[22:15:10] backslash7: what feature?
[22:15:25] gbee: 'feature' as in appear, where is that text from?
[22:15:34] sphery: backslash7: I'm not saying that's incorrect--it's completely correct
[22:15:42] sphery: backslash7: you do need to use Delete all

[22:16:14] iamlindoro: Is that Michael T Dean guy stirring up trouble again?
[22:16:20] sphery: backslash7: and, yeah, it knows what it put in, but it also knows how much you're asking it to delete and that if you don't delete all the other data may still be in use
[22:16:20] gbee: sphery: well if that's true, it's f**ked up (sorry for the language)
[22:16:24] iamlindoro: what a drama queen
[22:16:39] backslash7: hehe
[22:16:41] sphery: iamlindoro: yeah... too bad someone less annoying doesn't write a post about that
[22:16:48] backslash7: it sure isn't boring working on this project :P
[22:16:49] iamlindoro: ;)
[22:17:03] iamlindoro: backslash7: When did you start working on it? Tell us more.
[22:17:11] backslash7: I was just pointing out that that post makes mythtv look pretty bad in my opinion
[22:17:14] backslash7: I don't work on it

[22:18:41] brad2: hey guys, do you ever experience a flickering purple line at the bottom of your recordings with the haupauge hd pvr?
[22:19:16] sphery: and much of the schema mess is caused by mysql's general lack of data integrity constraints
[22:19:22] sphery: (yeah, I said "general lack")
[22:19:28] gbee: backslash7: it could be true, but if it is then it needs fixing, but I'm not sure what the issues are that prevent individual source deletion from working as it should

[22:20:25] backslash7: I just entered a name and a number, no Exx or Sxx stuff
[22:20:51] sphery: gbee: however, when a user gets stuff in the db that's not associated with a source or a capture card, then no amount of deleting individual sources or cards will delete the extra garbage that's breaking stuff
[22:21:07] sphery: gbee: so, really, we need to fix the program to prevent them from putting the garbage in there in the first place
[22:21:09] gbee: sphery: I'd have used innodb from the start with proper referential integrity and possibly even cascades (though unpopular with some)
[22:21:13] sphery: not that I know /how/ they get this

[22:42:49] sphery: Tsoots: In Music Settings under General, you'll find "Audio device" (which is specifically the one for MythMusic. If you set it to "default", it uses the same as TV. If not, it uses what you set.
[22:43:04] Tsoots: http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/4027

[22:45:47] gbee: heh, that was one of my early patches
[22:45:56] Tsoots: hmm somehow the selection is narrower than in general settings
[22:46:08] Tsoots: i bet there's a reason why mythmusic doesn't default to general
[22:46:28] gbee: allow use of the globally configured audio device instead of having to re-define it for mythmusic
[22:46:30] sphery: the default value for that one is default
[22:46:40] Slim-Kimbo (Slim-Kimbo!n=Kimbo@host86-168-176-99.range86-168.btcentralplus.com) has joined #mythtv-users
[22:47:00] gbee: and yes, the default is default for exactly that reason
[22:47:35] gbee: but the setting remains because some people want music to come out of a different set of speakers
[22:48:01] Tsoots: sure but i would think those are the minority
[22:48:19] Tsoots: but i don't have any research to support my view
[22:48:29] sphery: which is why we're saying it defaults to default, which uses what mythtv uses
[22:48:38] sphery: if yours isn't default, someone or something changed it
[22:48:39] Tsoots: no it doesn't
[22:48:49] Tsoots: cause i changed the Global output device to the one that worked
[22:49:03] Tsoots: mythmusic didn't apply that change with it's default value
[22:49:20] orogor: gbee, i think you need to somehow give up on the source thing, and do that differently
[22:49:50] Tsoots: oh well it's working now
[22:49:52] Tsoots: thanks
[22:50:32] orogor: basically allow multiple source for lultiple grabbers, then merge all the data from allt he grabber to have a single list of channels , then use a fuzzy match with scanned channels from each cards ionput
[22:51:00] gbee: err, have ITV2 bumped up the compression even higher? It's a complete mess :(
[22:51:28] sphery: orogor: the definition of a video source is a list of channels that are available on a particular input
[22:52:19] sphery: orogor: if you have a single list of all channels with nothing grouping which are available on which input, how do you keep from trying to tune some channel that's only on your cable set-top-box with your OTA capture card?
[22:52:54] jduggan: gbee: ive always found itv2 awful
[22:52:55] jduggan: :)
[22:53:28] sphery: orogor: and even if 2 inputs have channels with identical content, that doesn't make the channels identical--you need different information to tune a digital channel with a digital capture card than you need to tune an analog channel or a firewire channel
[22:53:49] orogor: sphery, sorry i meant video conections
[22:54:01] gbee: jduggan: quality, content or both?
[22:54:02] sphery: orogor: the xmltvid specifies where the content comes from, the callsigns specify which channels carry identical content
[22:54:14] orogor: humm
[22:54:17] sphery: orogor: input connections?
[22:54:44] sphery: input connections map a defined video source to a specific input...
[22:54:57] orogor: yes for exemple freebox iptv needs more than one grabber
[22:55:05] sphery: that's how we know which input the video source is defining the list of channels for
[22:55:07] gbee: iirc I only record Entourage from ITV2 and yes, I like the programme, but I've never actually noticed a picture quality this bad before
[22:55:15] jduggan: gbee: oh definitly both :)
[22:55:22] jduggan: gbee: but i was refering to quality :)
[22:55:23] gbee: guess I could have missed it before
[22:55:51] jduggan: i generally record itv2 from vm stb, so could be vm's doing
[22:55:54] orogor: sphery, i didnt understood that sentance that's how we know which input the video source is defining the list of channels for
[22:56:40] sphery: input connections are how we know which input the video source describes
[22:58:26] orogor: well you can need more than once video source to descibe an input
[22:58:32] sphery: orogor: so you have multiple sources of xmltv data that you're trying to combine for use on a single input?
[22:58:45] AndyCap: doesn't xmltv have a merging utility?
[22:58:49] sphery: yep
[22:58:52] sphery: tv_cat
[22:59:06] orogor: the other case where one video source can define many input is already possile but the reverse is also needed
[22:59:26] orogor: sphery, yes

[23:09:51] juski: anyway, before I got sidetracked. yes, turns out moovida is what used to be Elisa. And no, myth doesn't have anything to worry about :) Just scouting for ideas
[23:10:24] juski: unless anybody wants to turn mythtv into a thing with unintuitive menu navigation & choppy media playback
[23:10:26] orogor: tv_cat ? i dont think that would do the job
[23:10:50] orogor: specially because depending on the grabber you get different xml ids for the same channels
[23:11:29] sphery: you'll have to correct that, but you probably should configure xmltv (both scripts) so they don't both download different info for the same channel
[23:11:32] orogor: and some grabber only have detailled informationf ro daytime , while some other have low information for 24/7
[23:12:07] sphery: I still haven't heard a reason why it won't work
[23:12:18] sphery: you have to choose one source of data for a particular channel
[23:12:40] sphery: if you're saying you want to take the best parts of the listings for the same channel from different sources, you're trying to write your own xmltv grabber
[23:12:49] sphery: (just grabs from xmltv files instead of web pages)
[23:12:59] sphery: anyway, a lot of people are using tv_cat
[23:13:30] sphery: it's the /only/ supported way of getting listings from multiple listings sources into a single video source in Myth

[23:14:53] kormoc: orogor, or use tv_cat to concat the 3 xml files together and run one mythfilldatabase with that xml file?
[23:14:55] sphery: rather than running mythfilldatabase once after running 3 tv_grab scripts and concatenating with tv_cat?
[23:15:07] sphery: mfdb is /very/ heavyweight
[23:15:13] sphery: much better to run it only once

[23:21:37] sphery: eNRGy: -fixes or trunk?
[23:21:56] eNRGy: Err the version delivered by Ubuntu
[23:22:28] sphery: playback in MythVideo? Using what player? Internal?
[23:22:31] eNRGy: It's a front end box that's been working great for ages, but never had mp4 videos before
[23:22:34] eNRGy: Yeah internal player
[23:22:52] eNRGy: MythVideo yeah
[23:23:41] eNRGy: Dunno where to start – the videos are great on my Ubuntu desktop
[23:23:58] sphery: and what do you mean by "MP4 videos"?
[23:24:04] sphery: MPEG-4 Part 14 container?
[23:24:08] sphery: what CODEC inside?
[23:24:10] eNRGy: Err videos with mp4 file extension
[23:24:17] gbee: ffmpeg – i
[23:24:19] eNRGy: I have no idea – how can I find out?
[23:24:31] gbee: ffmpeg – i {filename}
[23:26:52] eNRGy: That gives lots of output ending with "Unable to find a suitable output format for 'pipe:'"
[23:27:10] sphery: pastebin all the output, please

[23:28:33] eNRGy: Oh sorry I read that as "paste in"
[23:28:37] sphery: eNRGy: you didn't have the filename after the command line... this, time, though, please use http://pastebin.ca/
[23:28:49] sphery: ffmpeg -i {filename}
[23:28:56] sphery: put your .mp4 filename there
[23:29:07] eNRGy: no worries I get the pastebin thing now
[23:29:12] eNRGy: I did put the filename though
[23:30:09] iamlindoro: -i with no space
[23:30:25] iamlindoro: and is this MP4 courtesy of handbrake?
[23:30:27] eNRGy: ahh yeah that's got it
[23:30:29] iamlindoro: ffmpeg -i filename.mp4

[23:31:31] ** iamlindoro suspects that Handbrake has broken the container again **
[23:31:46] iamlindoro: What is the source of the movie? What did you use to encode it?
[23:31:53] iamlindoro: (and we'll still take that pastebin output)
[23:32:31] eNRGy: http://pastebin.ca/1513042
[23:33:11] iamlindoro: What is the source of this file? What did you use to encode it?
[23:33:13] eNRGy: The files were provided by someone else, I don't know anything about them technically
[23:33:24] iamlindoro: Erm... too vague
[23:35:10] iamlindoro: Renaming the file file.mp4, and it being a cropped HD movie size and length doesn't bode well, though
[23:35:25] ** iamlindoro becomes officially disinterested **
[23:35:28] eNRGy: I renamed it because it had spaces
[23:35:40] eNRGy: I was struggling with the ffmpeg bit
[23:35:43] iamlindoro: So *what is it*?
[23:35:44] kormoc: renamed it from .what to .mp4?
[23:35:55] iamlindoro: What is the content, what is the original source
[23:36:05] kormoc: what is the fifth bit from the right?
[23:36:12] kormoc: and did it have dinner with your mother?
[23:36:14] sphery: 1
[23:36:17] sphery: oh, wait 0
[23:36:19] sphery: no, both
[23:36:24] GreyFoxx: hmmmmmm informal poll here..... do most of you run your backend as root or as another user ?
[23:36:25] sphery: (it's a q-bit)
[23:36:27] kormoc: oh noes! I'm so confizzled!
[23:36:34] kormoc: GreyFoxx, root
[23:36:35] sphery: GreyFoxx: mythtv user
[23:36:35] iamlindoro: GreyFoxx: Another user
[23:36:45] eNRGy: It was .mp4 originally?
[23:36:45] GreyFoxx: <<--root
[23:36:51] sphery: iamlindoro: does all of *buntu use another user?
[23:36:52] eNRGy: I'm lost.. what are you asking me?
[23:37:00] iamlindoro: sphery: They use MythTV
[23:37:09] J-e-f-f-A: GreyFoxx: mythtv user
[23:37:23] iamlindoro: eNRGy: "Is this pirated material" and if no, then you need to be prepared to give info on its pedigree
[23:37:44] iamlindoro: like what it is, where it came from, and then I *might* be able to figure out why the muxing when horribly wrong

[23:38:31] brad2: but bear in mind i'm a complete newb, and have no idea what i'm doing, haha
[23:38:39] eNRGy: It's a training video for my work.. no idea how I can give you pedigree heh

[23:39:10] sphery: kormoc: does Gentoo always use root?
[23:39:12] iamlindoro: maybe if you work at the movie theatres
[23:39:32] iamlindoro: I would have given at least a hint if I felt I was getting an honest answer... as it is, it's time to go home
[23:39:33] sphery: if so, we need a Red Hat/Fedora user to break the distro tie (Ubuntu = mythtv, Gentoo = root)
[23:39:41] orogor: sphery, would u knoiw why livetv doesn t start ? http://pastebin.com/m31785105
[23:39:42] kormoc: sphery, nah, Gentoo defaults to mythtv
[23:40:01] J-e-f-f-A: sphery: I'm running Fedora... and using mythtv user ... ;-)
[23:40:04] kormoc: and my ebuilds will as well, I just override it locally
[23:40:05] sphery: ah, so the distro's are heavily weighted toward mythtv
[23:40:22] brad2: i'm fedora :)
[23:40:23] ** sphery considers using a vthtym user, instead **
[23:40:33] kormoc: MythicalTV
[23:40:50] J-e-f-f-A: MyTivo? :-O
[23:41:01] kormoc: I really should switch over to using mythtv for my backend, and now's the time to
[23:41:02] sphery: MythicalConvergenceTV?
[23:41:13] kormoc: GreyFoxx, so count me as migrating to user mythtv ;)
[23:41:23] AndyCap: rpmfusion's initscripts run it as root in F11

[23:42:16] sphery: AndyCap: what? so Fedora goes both ways?
[23:42:18] AndyCap: kormoc: no, my last install used atrpms, and I hacked the scripts to use another user iirc.
[23:42:29] GreyFoxx: kormoc: hehe
[23:42:36] GreyFoxx: too late!
[23:42:36] sphery: guess you can't mix RPM Fusion and ATrpms packages...
[23:42:39] AndyCap: sphery: well, J-e-f-f-A didn't say he used rpmfusion
[23:43:43] J-e-f-f-A: I haven't used packages for a few years now. Cut my teeth on Jarod's guide though... which iirc was ATrpms
[23:43:56] AndyCap: J-e-f-f-A: correct.
[23:44:50] sphery: yeah, I know that ATrpms used to use root... don't know for sure what they use now.
[23:45:09] sphery: I was thinking there were device/HAL/whatever issues that made them stick with root, though
[23:45:30] AndyCap: this box was just a quickie to test dvb-c, but I'll probably make the "real" install drop root

[23:48:35] sphery: what's the new HAL? GZK?
[23:48:56] sphery: J-e-f-f-A: don't tell kormoc... he's already concerned about skynet
[23:49:05] AndyCap: hehe, devicekitt, uhm, kit...
[23:49:42] sphery: so policykit-like stuff?
[23:49:56] AndyCap: sphery: dunno yet, but probably yes.
[23:50:18] AndyCap: wth is with all the StudlyCaps and *Kit

[23:54:05] J-e-f-f-A: sphery: So you don't believe in skynet? What's this world coming to?
[23:54:17] gbee: packagers/distros buy in to new things far too easily, I mean, screw the users they can learn to use a new app right? Never mind the fact that they had just got comfortable and all their files are now in the wrong format etc
[23:54:22] sphery: But the question is, "Does skynet believe in /me/?"
[23:54:56] gbee: still smarting over the decision to drop kpowersave in favour of a shitty plasma widget
