[00:01:09] | kormoc: | would the x,y be useful for anything? |
[00:02:31] | juski: | hmm not really |
[00:02:53] | juski: | only need them right now to re-centre the images |
[00:03:57] | kormoc: | I would shoot for the re-centering in the same function then |
[00:04:09] | juski: | I tried translating the Qmatrix to 0.5width, 0.5height before (seemingly best way to do it) but it didn't seem to do anything |
[00:04:20] | juski: | though maybe it will now other stuff's changed |

[00:09:47] | juski: | googling the subject has shown me there are lots of fans of using the qt painter itself for this stuff |
[00:09:58] | juski: | have you seen the jaggy mess it makes? ;) |
[00:10:37] | juski: | I have 4.5 on here which is alleged to be vastly improved on older qt versions. I can only say if that's an *improvement*.. yeesh |
[00:11:05] | gbee: | when scaling it has fast & smooth options, is that the case for transformations too? |
[00:11:36] | gbee: | fast being nasty and smooth being decent |
[00:12:24] | gbee: | oh, I see you are already using smooth |
[00:12:29] | ** gbee shuts up ** | |
[00:12:55] | juski: | gbee: when using the painter directly, it sucked |
[00:13:21] | juski: | I tried it earlier. nice & fast, but sucky looking |
[00:13:44] | juski: | great for 90 degree increments though ;) |
[00:14:20] | gbee: | if you can do this before the image is scaled it will be slower, but at least for covers etc it should produce better results, only can't be done in the painter :/ |

[00:15:29] | juski: | 4.5 has all sorts of snazzy stuff apparently but if they don't care for the quality of rendering in the painter it can all go to hell |
[00:15:36] | gbee: | sorry, guess I've not read enough of scrollback, but are the results decent when using transformed? |
[00:15:44] | juski: | oh yes |
[00:15:48] | gbee: | ahh |
[00:16:02] | juski: | just not when doing a similar thing to what's being done in the gl painter, in qt ;) |
[00:16:11] | juski: | i.e. bypass the mythimage method |
[00:17:05] | gbee: | which renderHints did you use? http://doc.trolltech.com/4.4/qpainter.html#setRenderHint http://doc.trolltech.com/4.4/qpainter.html#rendering-quality http://doc.trolltech.com/4.4/qpainter.html#RenderHint-enum |
[00:17:26] | juski: | it has renderhints? oh damnit |
[00:17:48] | juski: | it was a piece of pie to do it in the painter itself so I could try again tomorrow |
[00:18:15] | juski: | case of move the canvas, rotate the canvas, draw, reset the canvas ;) |
[00:18:20] | gbee: | plus I *think* we may be using a pixmap for the QT painter, it advises a QImage for the best results |
[00:18:42] | gbee: | http://doc.trolltech.com/4.4/painting-concentriccircles.html << Interesting comparison |
[00:19:34] | juski: | the default might be fine for mobile phone apps :P |
[00:20:37] | juski: | antialiased is prolly good enough. thing is, will it be fast enough? |
[00:20:59] | gbee: | setRenderHints(QPainter::Antialiasing | QPainter::TextAntialiasing | QPainter::SmoothPixmapTransform); |
[00:21:43] | juski: | gbee: did you try doing any of the mythimage effects in the painter originally, just to see how they looked? |
[00:22:02] | android6011 (android6011!n=chatzill@74.254.149.100) has joined #mythtv-users | |
[00:22:34] | gbee: | juski: non at all, I took a shortcut since doing it in mythimage meant one implementation instead of two (or more) |
[00:22:39] | gbee: | none |
[00:23:02] | juski: | if stuff isn't animated, so long as the qt painter itself looks ok & doesn't take much time I think it's worth having a crack at |
[00:23:03] | gbee: | always intended to go back and do it properly, but time etc |
[00:23:33] | kormoc: | Is there a reason to keep the QT one around? |
[00:23:41] | juski: | apparently there is |
[00:24:29] | gbee: | kormoc: opengl either isn't available or is broken on some systems/drivers |
[00:25:03] | juski: | most if not all the 'competition' use SDL.. and that seems fall between two stools, miles away from either stool |
[00:25:16] | kormoc: | Fair 'nuff, just seems to be a dying target |
[00:25:33] | juski: | hopefully we'll just have two before long eh :) |
[00:25:34] | kormoc: | and will get harder and harder to maintain the more ui effects that get added |
[00:25:38] | j-rod: | last time I tried the opengl painter on !nvidia graphics... well, fail. |
[00:26:02] | gbee: | juski: it's own stool, in a corner, facing the wall and wearing a pointy hat |
[00:26:11] | juski: | kormoc: animation is a non-starter on non-accelerated systems |
[00:26:58] | juski: | gbee: on my C2D laptop, XBMC can sit there in its menus drawing 50% CPU |
[00:27:15] | juski: | I mean WTF? |
[00:27:46] | gbee: | think I'll call it a night |
[00:28:13] | juski: | yeah my battery's about to go so I will too. another good progress day though :) |
[00:28:16] | juski: | night all |
[00:28:25] | gbee: | for one of us anyway :) |

[00:59:38] | gizmobay: | what does length mismatch mean? |
[00:59:52] | gizmobay: | programs on two different times? |
[01:00:02] | gizmobay: | like one an hour and the other 1/2 hour |

[01:03:31] | juski: | yeah yeah I said I was going to sleep, but.. http://imagebin.ca/img/XzUPjV.png that's the actual qt painter doing a rotate. some bug in the drawing somehow, but otherwise looks fine & seems nippy quick |
[01:04:17] | janneg: | gizmobay: no, nothing like that. programinfo is the structure hilding information of a recording. I'm interested if you see that message in the frontend output |

[01:06:55] | juski: | hrm maybe the bug is caused by correct operation of deciding which bits of the screen are dirty.. |
[01:08:05] | juski: | I think so, since the top of the frame bitmap is what's cutting off the redraw area |

[01:09:21] | iamlindo`: | bah |
[01:09:25] | iamlindo`: | did my last two messages in #mythtv get out? |
[01:09:44] | iamlindo`: | And were there any responses? |
[01:09:56] | gizmobay: | I see a slice mismatch error |
[01:10:01] | juski: | iamlindo`: http://imagebin.ca/img/XzUPjV.png – qt painter doing the rotate in the actual painter, not pre-rotating :) |
[01:10:16] | juski: | iamlindo`: no to both ;) |
[01:10:21] | iamlindo`: | suck |
[01:10:26] | iamlindo`: | juski, Nice!! |
[01:10:45] | juski: | iamlindo`: image quality there is the default. I think I really screwed up when I tested it earlier |
[01:10:53] | iamlindo`: | juski, Asked what I should call the menu item for changing the metadata browse mode... but I think I'll settle on "Browse By..." |
[01:11:05] | juski: | sounds ok to me |
[01:11:16] | iamlindo`: | juski, Looks like clipping issues though |
[01:11:29] | juski: | iamlindo`: intended behaviour of the ui code |
[01:11:41] | juski: | iamlindo`: it needs to be changed to take into account the new factor ;) |
[01:12:00] | juski: | it's done that way to speed things up |
[01:12:13] | juski: | i.e. to save redrawing the whole screen |
[01:12:20] | iamlindo`: | juski, did you see: http://www.fecitfacta.com/genre.png http://www.fecitfacta.com/director.png http://www.fecitfacta.com/year.png ? |
[01:12:30] | juski: | yeah. VERY neat |
[01:12:49] | juski: | couple of alignment issues in some places but very erm.. yes. VERY |
[01:12:55] | iamlindo`: | Just need to smart myself up a way to automatically build TV stuff |
[01:13:02] | iamlindo`: | yeah, I've never gone back and fixed that view |
[01:13:09] | iamlindo`: | Got distracted |
[01:13:18] | iamlindo`: | but easiest way to illustrate the concept |
[01:14:53] | juski: | so I dunno now, I can put some image fx directly in the painter, then update more of the screen (arghhh bit messy) or stick with the bloody awful if (!opengl && is_FX) doFX() all over the show |
[01:15:17] | juski: | speed of the native painting ops is key I think |
[01:16:10] | iamlindo`: | where'd kormoc slip off to? |
[01:16:30] | juski: | with the rotate done on the fly you can still hold a key down & the screen more or less blurs as much as when it's the gl painter so maybe it's a no-brainer |
[01:16:51] | juski: | iamlindo`: he quit 16 mins ago |
[01:16:56] | iamlindo`: | bah |
[01:17:09] | iamlindo`: | juski, I am out of love with the Qt painter |
[01:17:12] | juski: | well it was 2am :P |
[01:17:25] | iamlindo`: | I'd like to see it gone-- if eckbeeemsee can, so can we |
[01:17:50] | juski: | that sucks though. sitting there doing only it's scrolly scroll thing eating 50% of my cpu |

[01:18:20] | juski: | thought SDL was supposed to leverage hardware if it found it |
[01:18:22] | juski: | ;) |
[01:19:13] | juski: | windows people will presumably need the qt painter, then there are those who have non-gl friendly hardware on linux |
[01:19:45] | iamlindo`: | Those people can get jobs and vuy graphics cards ;) |
[01:19:45] | juski: | but I dunno, there's merit for & against it |
[01:19:48] | iamlindo`: | er buy |
[01:20:36] | juski: | fglrx can't be bad at gl stuff – I mean the eyecandy brigade would be all over dissing it if that were the case |
[01:21:06] | juski: | and I've only heard a couple of cases of problems with ql painting on Intel |
[01:21:39] | juski: | at the end of the day it'd be Chutt's call. this is his baby |
[01:23:02] | [James]: | Whats the best distro to use for mythtv? |
[01:23:06] | juski: | anyway this is the qt painter draw routine with added rotation: easy peasy http://pastebin.ca/1527363 |
[01:23:14] | juski: | [James]: whatever you're most comfortable with |
[01:23:37] | [James]: | Well Im using ubuntu right now. And just cant get my video card drivers to work |
[01:23:48] | juski: | [James]: and if you're not.. prolly better to go with an all-in-one mythtv based distro |
[01:24:04] | [James]: | Well Im using mythbuntu right now |
[01:24:06] | juski: | [James]: forget about mythtv til you get them working then ;) |
[01:24:12] | [James]: | exactly |
[01:24:19] | juski: | no video acceleration == FAIL |
[01:24:30] | [James]: | what are some other all in one distros? |
[01:24:48] | juski: | knoppmyth, now known as LINHES – see www.mysettopbox.tv |
[01:25:01] | juski: | and then there's MythDora AFAIK. And that's your lot |
[01:26:37] | iamlindo`: | whatever you are comfortable with |
[01:27:24] | iamlindo`: | Ah hell, I think I'm gonna commit it |
[01:27:33] | iamlindo`: | it works, can't find any huge obvious problems with it |
[01:27:46] | [James]: | are on board graphics good enough. Or do I need my graphics card? |
[01:27:58] | iamlindo`: | Depends on the On-board |
[01:28:25] | [James]: | Ok. I dont even know the motherboard thats in there. |

[01:41:23] | iamlindoro: | Kinda neat to see which directors have done episodes of multiple of my favorite shows |

[01:48:07] | juski: | jblack_: yeah but I'm not going in & changing code in qt to test how myth performs :P |
[01:48:21] | juski: | I mean qt itself |
[01:50:16] | juski: | slowed a core down to 800mhz, seemed a teensy bit slower than before.. nothing major, and with the amount of images likely to be effected in a theme.. I think it'll be ok y'know |
[01:50:37] | iamlindoro: | nice |
[01:50:51] | iamlindoro: | did you taskset to that core? |
[01:51:03] | juski: | no, dunno how |
[01:51:17] | iamlindoro: | taskset -c $numofcore mythfrontend |
[01:51:24] | iamlindoro: | ie taskset -c 0 mythfrontend |
[01:51:36] | juski: | I set both to 800mhz as a matter of fact ;) |
[01:52:30] | iamlindoro: | still might be worth pinning to one core to more closely simulate a single core 800 |
[01:52:43] | juski: | kk |
[01:53:50] | juski: | a little slower but certainly nothing to write home about |
[01:55:29] | juski: | iamlindoro: thought of a nice effect for the gl painter which would look good with a plasma kinda background ;) |
[01:55:56] | iamlindoro: | <nakedchicks><number>3</number></nakedchicks>? |
[01:56:02] | juski: | hahaha |
[01:56:57] | juski: | anyway, fix the redraw issue in this & it's done without anything like the kind of mess we need otherwise |
[01:58:39] | iamlindoro: | Great job |
[01:58:57] | juski: | qt4.5 can actually do 3d transform type stuff apparently, so uh, yeah. maybe just limit animation effects (other than flipbook) to the !qt painter |

[02:37:06] | nighthawk: | I'm onto new issues now :-) |
[02:37:07] | j-rod: | so far as I know, they use the userspace libftdi driver |
[02:37:23] | nighthawk: | w/mode two, the same button gives different pulse codes each time |

[02:39:59] | Wicked: | hello all. have you guys seen this? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813500028 ...looks like a perfect setup for mythtv |
[02:40:28] | j-rod: | nighthawk: yeah, I'd ask on lirc-list@lists.sourceforge.net |
[02:40:29] | wagnerrp: | not up with current events are you... |
[02:40:32] | iamlindoro: | Well, I'd buy the 330 version, but yes, the Zotac boards are nice (so long as you ONLY want to use VDPAU) |
[02:41:07] | Wicked: | yea iamlindoro? why do you say that? |
[02:41:26] | wagnerrp: | it doesnt have the power for anything HD |
[02:41:31] | j-rod: | iamlindoro: to be perfectly honest, I'm not actually sure what the point of the second core actually is, I'm thinking my box won't ever really need it |
[02:41:38] | iamlindoro: | Because the 230 is a single core atom and the 330 is a dual core, and that CPU .. yeah, what wagnerrp said |
[02:41:40] | j-rod: | wagnerrp: horsefeathers. |
[02:41:51] | iamlindoro: | j-rod, IMHO it's a tiny bit of future proofing for ffmpeg-mt |
[02:42:01] | j-rod: | mine plays back mpeg2 hdtv just fine w/o vdpau |
[02:42:01] | Wicked: | ah |
[02:42:04] | nighthawk: | whats a good alternative ir receiver if I can't get this ftdi thing working? |
[02:42:15] | j-rod: | nighthawk: mce usb |
[02:42:33] | wagnerrp: | j-rod: what bitrate? i cant believe the atom can do more than ~15mbps mpeg2 per core |
[02:42:37] | j-rod: | nighthawk: I'll loan ya one ;) |
[02:42:38] | nighthawk: | isn't mce non rc5? |
[02:43:02] | j-rod: | it'll handle just about every ir proto under the sun |
[02:43:08] | j-rod: | including rc5 and rc6 |
[02:43:23] | Wicked: | ah yea the 330 does look nicer! |
[02:43:31] | j-rod: | wagnerrp: um, whatever bitrate the stuff recorded at from the mpeg2 transport stream on my cable feed? |

[02:46:05] | wagnerrp: | ~18.4mbps |
[02:46:15] | wagnerrp: | still, far more than i thought that chip could do |
[02:46:16] | j-rod: | I rounded up |
[02:46:36] | j-rod: | my main hdtv playback system for some time was a 1.66 core duo w/gma950 graphics |
[02:46:54] | j-rod: | so I never doubted a dual-core atom w/nvidia graphics could do just fine even w/o vdpau |
[02:47:21] | wagnerrp: | a 1.66 Core is vastly more powerful than a 1.6 Atom |
[02:47:26] | iamlindoro: | A 1.66 C2D is a heck of a lot better than a Atom :0 |
[02:47:26] | iamlindoro: | :) |
[02:47:40] | j-rod: | not c2. just c. |
[02:47:41] | wagnerrp: | not a C2D, just a CD |
[02:47:46] | nighthawk: | http://amzn.com/B00224ZDFY this mce is only 14$ w/amz shipping, looks like it might do the trick, and gives me yet another spare remote |
[02:48:02] | wagnerrp: | a 1.66 CD is about the power of a 1.3–1.4 C2D |
[02:48:17] | j-rod: | nighthawk: do not want |
[02:48:22] | iamlindoro: | Anecdotally, I set up a couple of ION systems a few weeks ago and had some issues w/ ATSC, though I didn't spend more than 10 minutes trying to fix them before going w/ VDPAU |
[02:48:27] | j-rod: | that's not an actual mceusb receiver there |
[02:48:33] | nighthawk: | no? |
[02:48:34] | j-rod: | its some thingy that might show up as an hid device |
[02:48:41] | wagnerrp: | a 1.6 Atom is closer to a 0.8–1.0 C2D |
[02:48:43] | nighthawk: | argh |
[02:48:46] | j-rod: | (best as I can tell from the pic) |
[02:48:51] | iamlindoro: | The "Anyware" MCE remote on neweg for $20 is a real MCE |

[03:20:36] | iamlindoro: | anyhoo, as wagnerrp mentions... though that's a nasty framegrabber on the analog side, so avoid that like the plague |
[03:20:57] | wagnerrp: | did the 950 get renamed to the 850, to avoid confusion between the 950 and the 950Q? |
[03:21:17] | iamlindoro: | mkrufky would know |
[03:21:19] | wagnerrp: | RegressLess: that tuner is only good for ATSC broadcasts |
[03:21:33] | iamlindoro: | yeah, as in, not cable |
[03:21:33] | wagnerrp: | i wouldnt bother with analog tuning/capture |

[03:58:06] | [James]: | mythtv user |
[03:58:16] | kormoc: | then mythtv password is the default |
[03:58:24] | kormoc: | or rather, the default password is mythtv |
[03:59:06] | [James]: | ah I found where the password is installed. Now I just have to figure out how to navigate to that txt file. :) I hate having to learn how to use a computer again. |

[04:06:26] | wagnerrp: | in python, float('3.9') == 3.899999999999 |
[04:06:49] | kormoc: | welcome to floating point numbers |
[04:07:07] | wagnerrp: | well sure, in compiled languages |
[04:07:16] | kormoc: | in ruby, php, perl... |
[04:07:17] | wagnerrp: | but scripted languages are usually more exact than that |
[04:07:32] | wagnerrp: | oh? |
[04:07:51] | kormoc: | I think so, they're mostly all 16 bit floating points |
[04:08:06] | iamlindoro: | Bah, no use adding a browse by rating since TMDB doesn't give back any |
[04:08:28] | wagnerrp: | i suppose the only time ive ever used floats in scripting languages are ones languages designed for math |
[04:08:31] | wagnerrp: | like matlab |
[04:10:24] | [James]: | If mythtv is saying NoUnP backends found, what does that mean? |
[04:10:40] | wagnerrp: | it means the backend is not running |
[04:10:52] | wagnerrp: | or the backend is set to use localhost, so upnp is deactivated |

[04:11:34] | [James]: | omg this is annoying. I guess Im just going to reinstall it. I really screwed it up some how. |
[04:11:45] | wagnerrp: | it's assumed that a frontend and backend on the same machine will run under the same user, and so the database access files should already be in place |
[04:12:17] | [James]: | so its saying that since it cant log in to the database file right? |
[04:12:34] | wagnerrp: | its saying that because it cannot find the 'config.xml' |
[04:12:50] | wagnerrp: | and either the backend is not running, or it is listening on 127.0.0.1 |
[04:14:32] | kormoc: | reinstalling is a bit much |
[04:15:22] | [James]: | well Im completely new to everything linux. So Im really stuck |

[04:33:46] | kormoc: | you only changed the user to the correct one in one file, not all of them |
[04:34:24] | [James]: | ok |
[04:34:55] | [James]: | whats the other place I need to change it |
[04:35:06] | iamlindoro: | /home/mythtv/.mythtv/config.xml and mysql.txt are likely culprits |
[04:35:23] | iamlindoro: | but I'd test that you can connect to the DB with the password you think is right |
[04:35:31] | iamlindoro: | mysql -u mythtv -p mythconverg |

[04:40:08] | lwizardl: | anyone here use a bud (big ugly dish) 10ft satellite dish ? |
[04:40:41] | iamlindoro: | [James], It wouldn't be a very useful username and password if it was sitting in a text file |
[04:41:11] | [James]: | haha it would for me. Ok thanks for your help guys. |
[04:41:18] | iamlindoro: | IF you know what it is, you can change the values in the myth config files... but if you don't, off to #ubuntu-mythtv with you for their help, as I have no idea how to un-kludge that |
[04:42:01] | [James]: | haha I knew I screwed myself. Thanks anyway |
[04:42:14] | iamlindoro: | It's probably a fairly simple fix, you are unlikely to be that screwed |
[04:42:22] | iamlindoro: | IMO reinstalling would be retarded |
[04:42:44] | iamlindoro: | When there's likely some command, like, say... sudo dpkg-reconfigure mythtv-common |
[04:42:51] | iamlindoro: | that might very well let you reset the password |
[04:43:00] | [James]: | yeah, but I havnt had a question answered yet over at ubuntu-mythtv |
[04:43:18] | iamlindoro: | or, possibly... |

[04:48:03] | iamlindoro: | don't skim, read |
[04:48:43] | iamlindoro: | wagnerrp, Does your patch make it commitworthy in your opinion? |

[05:24:15] | iamlindoro: | I figured, and also assumed that since the rest went in you wouldn't mind the small fix |
[05:24:18] | jya: | Actually, I have a version at home, that gets the best plot... based on the longest one |

[06:35:17] | cesman: | [James]: you need to define what you mean my "mythbuntu" |
[06:35:32] | cesman: | [James]: mythtv will use whatever you tell it to use to play a DVD |
[06:35:46] | [James]: | I meant mythtv |
[06:35:57] | cesman: | as I don't know what mythbuntu uses as the default, I can only tell you to look at the Settings |
[06:36:39] | cesman: | additionally, you maybe to install libdvdcss2 if you want to play encumbered DVDs |
[06:36:54] | [James]: | yeah Ive installed that |
[06:37:23] | cesman: | again, look at the settings to see what mythtv is trying to use for DVD playback |
[06:37:37] | [James]: | in myth setup, or the front end? |
[06:37:41] | cesman: | you can find other clues to the issue play looking at the frontend log |
[06:37:45] | cesman: | frontend |
[06:39:28] | [James]: | You dont have an iPhone do you? |
[06:44:18] | [James]: | Well I cant find anything for DVD playback in the front end |
[06:45:24] | cesman: | no, I don't have an iphone |
[06:45:42] | cesman: | [James]: is mythvideo installed? |
[06:46:02] | [James]: | how can I check. Im assuming no. |
[06:46:05] | cesman: | mythvideo is the plugin responsible for video/dvd playback |
[06:46:36] | cesman: | from the menu Media Library > Watch Videos |
[06:47:26] | [James]: | synaptic shows its installed |
[06:48:31] | cesman: | Do you see no Optical Disks from the menu? |
[06:49:08] | [James]: | Yes I see Optical Disks on the menu |
[06:49:20] | [James]: | But when I go to play DVD, it just flashes a black screen |
[06:49:58] | cesman: | If you go into Utilities/Setup > Setup > Media Settings > Video Settings > Player Settings |
[06:50:18] | cesman: | what do you see for DVD Player commands |

[12:41:50] | laga_: | <3 quilt |
[12:42:14] | gbee: | never used it, never did see how it would solve all my problems since patches have to apply in sequence A > B > C |
[12:42:34] | laga_: | yeah, you got to make sure it's the right tool for the job :) |
[12:42:35] | gbee: | if I want to commit C but no A + B then quilt doesn't help |

[12:43:12] | laga_: | well, some patches do not depend on others |
[12:43:37] | gbee: | plus it seemed more complicated than I'd have liked, but maybe once you have the hang of using it you just don't notice |
[12:43:46] | juski: | gbee: positive thing about doing the rotates in the painters themselves – they won't screw up your threading work |
[12:43:48] | laga_: | mkdir dev |
[12:43:50] | laga_: | damn |
[12:45:04] | juski: | I'll keep my patches so far though, they'll come in handy to refer to for the stuff being left in mythimage but done in !all painters |
[12:46:17] | juski: | if this goes in I'll add notes in the wiki for themers to pay attention to the drawing area updates ;) |
[12:47:25] | laga_: | for the love of god. i'm using virtualbox seamless mode and it always looks like the wrong window has focus |

[12:55:35] | Shadow__X: | laga_: ah ok, but i meant if you do not have an open windows from the vm while in seamless mode you get video glitches |

[13:14:18] | laga_: | argh |
[13:14:20] | AndyCap: | still I managed to play back dd and dts and speaker-test seems to work so I consider it somewhat successful. :) only got one or two channels with dolby digital sound though. |
[13:14:37] | gbee: | setting up hdmi audio isn't quite plug and play, you've got the .asoundrc which resamples to 44.1khz and uses the right card/device, then most drivers default to muting the spdif for some reason |
[13:14:38] | AndyCap: | so now to see how mythtv manages. |
[13:14:56] | gbee: | I should improve the Digital sound howto in the wiki |
[13:15:16] | juski: | heh somebody should |
[13:15:20] | AndyCap: | hehe, didn't have any luck until I nabbed a few packages from the development repo of fedora. |

[14:19:47] | iamlindoro: | yeah :( |

[14:23:05] | Shadow__X: | wow ok no more seagate for me |
[14:23:18] | iamlindoro: | no, like I said, I'm sure they've cleared it up |

[14:23:51] | iamlindoro: | so just buy any product line that has been around for a few months |
[14:25:01] | mzb: | afaik they had a strange firmwire issue where *some* drives *might* be affected by a firmware bug involving the drive locking itself when connected to a mobo sata port |
[14:25:23] | Shadow__X: | yeah its just like everything the first line are kind of like beta products |
[14:25:53] | iamlindoro: | mzb, This was 100% of drives I received in a single batch, and was a gradually increasing click of death until they physically destroyed their motors and wouldn't spin up |
[14:25:56] | mzb: | I have 2x500GB (out of 3) and 1x1TB (out of 3) drives that were affected |
[14:26:21] | mzb: | gee ... must be a different thing then ... I'll get back under my rock ;) |
[14:26:54] | mzb: | (that being said, I think the sata ports died on the mobo I was using at the time) |
[14:27:13] | iamlindoro: | I could have just seen a different issue |
[14:28:47] | mzb: | there was new firmware released for the affected drives, but you had to catch it before they locked unless you made a TTL/serial converter |

[14:29:21] | j-rod: | iamlindoro: it doesn't included it, but there's nothing stopping you from putting it in there in place of the wifi card |
[14:29:22] | juski: | according to HDD manufacturer people we've had in here at work, by the time a HDD hits the market it's already pretty old & well run-in. So they reckoned |
[14:29:35] | iamlindoro: | j-rod, ah-hah... are they available aftermarket? |
[14:29:39] | j-rod: | sort of |

[14:51:56] | juski: | doesn't seem like the BCM thing would be anything like as lame as a pvr350 |
[14:52:01] | j-rod: | not sweeping under run |
[14:52:02] | j-rod: | rug |
[14:52:10] | j-rod: | and its most certainly not lame |
[14:52:22] | j-rod: | video is still output via your normal video output path |
[14:52:29] | juski: | yeah I was about to say :) |
[14:52:34] | gbee: | svn really needs a way to exclude files from a commit/diff |
[14:52:40] | j-rod: | but all the decoding is done by the bcm card instead of the cpu |
[14:53:10] | AndyCap: | sure, but it won't be long before it's eclipsed by more general purpose hardware |
[14:53:13] | juski: | j-rod: how's it cope with slightly glitchy recordings? |
[14:53:24] | j-rod: | not sure yet |
[14:53:29] | j-rod: | I have hardware arriving today |
[14:53:45] | j-rod: | but supposedly, reasonably well |
[14:53:53] | juski: | could be a good alternative to VDPAU |
[14:54:05] | j-rod: | yup |
[14:54:21] | juski: | good == if there's a stutter in the stream you don't have to reboot |
[14:54:23] | j-rod: | esp. in cases where you can't replace your video card |
[14:54:24] | juski: | ;) |
[14:54:38] | laga_: | are there linux drivers? |
[14:54:46] | ** j-rod whistles ** | |
[14:54:55] | juski: | according to broadcom there are |
[14:55:04] | laga_: | are there *open* linux drivers? |
[14:55:22] | juski: | muh,open,closed.. I just want it to work well :) |
[14:55:33] | juski: | it's a black box |
[14:56:23] | juski: | but I guess if the drivers were OSS, it's one in the eye for nvidia again |
[14:57:24] | juski: | ah but what about deinterlacing? can it do that too? if not, it's as much use as a chocolate teapot |
[14:57:28] | laga_: | broadcom does not exactly have a reputation for being linux friendly, just saying' |
[14:57:36] | d00gle: | Interesting, if I run scan-s2 before I do a channel scan it now finds the DVB-S2 transponders |
[14:58:40] | j-rod: | juski: it just decodes the video, it doesn't handle outputting to the display |
[14:58:52] | AndyCap: | heh, broadcom linux drivers, nananana, you can't have them, nananana. |
[14:59:12] | juski: | it might've done deinterlacing as well, you never know |
[14:59:38] | j-rod: | at least, as I understand it, it only decodes the video and hands back raw frames to be output by your video card |
[15:00:01] | j-rod: | but with your cpu free from decode, you could use it for deint filtering |
[15:00:48] | j-rod: | could also mix-n-match with vdpau |
[15:00:58] | j-rod: | the possibilities are endless. or something. |
[15:01:17] | juski: | anyway, it's another possible option. MOAROPTNS is good :) |

[17:47:28] | sid3windr: | f you magically manage to avoid wasting any grease then you could make one tube stretch a lot further, but anybody who's used thermal compound knows that more of it will end up distributed approximately evenly around the computer room, and the person applying it, than will end up where it's meant to go. |
[17:47:33] | sid3windr: | =) |

[18:24:09] | wagnerrp: | has nothing to do with mythtv |
[18:24:15] | wagnerrp: | nothing to see here... move along.... |
[18:24:24] | GreyFoxx: | Too bad you can't set "conditions" in an a video-ui.xml theme. If (Season != 0) use screenshotifitisset, else use coverfile |

[18:24:40] | wagnerrp: | again, has nothing to do with mythtv, and everything to do with your window manager |

[18:25:47] | GreyFoxx: | iamlindoro: Even if oyu could set a priority of some sort ... button = moo, image moo1 = prioroty 1, image moo2 = priority2, |
[18:26:03] | wagnerrp: | RegressLess: what window manager are you using? |
[18:26:17] | GreyFoxx: | and it display the image based on if it's defined (screenshot/banner/covertshot) and i order of priority |
[18:26:31] | GreyFoxx: | so if no screenshot is defined fall back to coverfile |

[18:38:05] | wagnerrp: | i have no idea what you just said |
[18:38:08] | Senkrad_Luna: | Hi everyone. I've changed my theme and after exiting and starting mythtv over again the screen is garbled, any suggestions on how to fix? |
[18:38:13] | wagnerrp: | i do not understand the meaning of this 'watts/h' unit |
[18:38:53] | flexy: | electricity per hour |
[18:39:03] | flexy: | less heat generated |
[18:39:08] | wagnerrp: | obviously you dont understand the meaning of 'watt' |
[18:39:16] | flexy: | aha |
[18:40:00] | flexy: | so you think that spindown state on HD takes as much power as active state? |
[18:40:01] | iamlindoro: | Cubits per furlong divided by hogsheads squared over stone |
[18:40:11] | wagnerrp: | 'watt' is a unit of power |
[18:40:15] | iamlindoro: | flexy: That's not what he said |
[18:40:28] | flexy: | wagnerrp: yes |
[18:40:29] | juski: | and power is... ;) |
[18:40:29] | wagnerrp: | equal to joules per second |
[18:40:31] | iamlindoro: | flexy: Simply that W/h is not a measure of what you think it is |
[18:40:46] | flexy: | crap |
[18:40:48] | wagnerrp: | watts per hour, is the rate of change per hour |
[18:41:00] | wagnerrp: | or how quickly your energy consumption rises |
[18:41:20] | flexy: | ok, Wh then |
[18:41:23] | wagnerrp: | the only use for that unit ever, would be figuring out timing for starting up peak load power plants |
[18:41:53] | wagnerrp: | anyway, your point is still invalid |
[18:41:54] | flexy: | right, go ahead, continue your way to split atoms |
[18:42:24] | wagnerrp: | as at average power costs, idling a hard drive for an entire year would only cost you a couple bucks |
[18:42:45] | wagnerrp: | running it for an hour or two every day would be pennies |
[18:43:35] | flexy: | in any case, 3Wh creates heat. Heat requires cooling. Cooling arranged with fans create noise. |
[18:43:46] | wagnerrp: | 3Wh does not create heat |
[18:43:53] | wagnerrp: | 3Wh is a quantity of energy |
[18:44:09] | wagnerrp: | and if you use that over a year, its almost immeasurable |
[18:44:23] | flexy: | right. but that amount gets used in an hour |
[18:44:23] | wagnerrp: | you want watts, just plain and simple watts... |
[18:44:27] | flexy: | ok |
[18:44:36] | wagnerrp: | so 3watt-hours per hour? |
[18:44:38] | flexy: | 3W creates heat |
[18:44:45] | flexy: | yes |
[18:45:10] | wagnerrp: | its actually closer to 5–6W, idle versus spun down |
[18:45:16] | flexy: | maybe more. have not measured, just googled the disc specs |
[18:45:27] | wagnerrp: | active is close to 9W |
[18:45:39] | flexy: | yes, I'm being conservative, so that the surprise is positive |
[18:45:58] | flexy: | but please continue |
[18:46:21] | wagnerrp: | my point is that the cost of running those drives instead of idling them is minimal |
[18:46:30] | wagnerrp: | s/idling/spinning down/ |
[18:46:35] | flexy: | and my point is noise |
[18:46:48] | wagnerrp: | modern hard drives dont make much noise |
[18:47:22] | flexy: | and even if it was the cost, what then? It's my wallet, I can think of saving a penny in a year if I choose so |
[18:47:23] | wagnerrp: | and if youre trying to put a hard drive pack in a machine you want quiet, youre really doing it wrong anyway |
[18:48:02] | flexy: | right, if I had the money, I would acquire half a dozen intel ssd units |
[18:48:03] | wagnerrp: | usually you want a machine quiet, because it sits in front of the computer |
[18:48:15] | wagnerrp: | and sitting in front of the computer, you want it small |
[18:48:30] | wagnerrp: | and being small, its incapable of handling heat |
[18:48:57] | wagnerrp: | but considering you SHOULD design systems based around the maximum heat output you might see, you dont want those hard drives in there to begin with |
[18:49:21] | flexy: | neither the cpu, it generates loads of heat |
[18:49:49] | flexy: | gpu can do so also, should we ditch it too? |
[18:50:03] | wagnerrp: | a small, relatively powerful dual core system is going to consume under 100W at the wall |
[18:50:20] | Senkrad_Luna: | Frontend garbled any suggestions on how to fix? Desktop and terminals still available. |
[18:50:24] | flexy: | hell, even the psu operates under 90% efficiency, should I use batteries? |
[18:50:25] | wagnerrp: | most of that near the backend of the system |
[18:50:41] | wagnerrp: | where it gets pulled away from other components |
[18:51:04] | wagnerrp: | the hard drives are the problem, because you generally cannot put large slow quiet fans on them, and they pump that heat into the rest of the system |
[18:51:48] | wagnerrp: | anyway, i digress |
[18:51:55] | wagnerrp: | if you dont want mythtv recording to that drive |
[18:52:00] | wagnerrp: | take the drive out of the storage group |
[18:52:11] | wagnerrp: | there is no other way to do it |
[18:52:25] | wagnerrp: | technically, thats not exactly true.... |
[18:52:39] | wagnerrp: | recently, trunk has added a few options to the disk balancing |
[18:52:50] | wagnerrp: | so you can tell it to only figure in disk space |
[18:53:07] | wagnerrp: | so you could write a script that would nightly shift all the recordings over to one drive |
[18:53:18] | flexy: | right, a ton of rambling, then to the business |
[18:53:19] | wagnerrp: | so then mythtv will only record to the other drive |
[18:53:33] | wagnerrp: | but thats a horrible hack of a job |
[18:53:50] | flexy: | yes, I'm not going to do it. nice to suggest it, though |
[18:53:53] | wagnerrp: | for negligible gain |
[18:54:39] | kormoc: | iamlindoro, figures my first ticket for Mr. Dean he has fixed already :) |

[18:55:14] | kormoc: | Yeah, which might be hard, as the os x packager downloads the source new each time it seems |
[18:55:34] | iamlindoro: | kormoc: sphery: I know sphery planned to commit that ticket this week |
[18:55:49] | iamlindoro: | If he's looking, maybe he can do so or have you do so, then you can test as normal |
[18:56:40] | wagnerrp: | flexy: anyway, my point is that if you want a quiet system, powering down one hard drive is not the way to do it |
[18:56:51] | wagnerrp: | you have to get the drives out of the system |
[18:57:42] | flexy: | well, can't do that. I have just one machine, it's dedicated myth box. |
[18:59:21] | iamlindoro: | kormoc: could add a quick wget and patch into the build script, too |
[18:59:27] | kormoc: | yeah, true |
[18:59:28] | iamlindoro: | right after the source dl |
[18:59:32] | kormoc: | I'll poke at it in a few |
[18:59:47] | iamlindoro: | cool, I'm sure he'd be glad to hear if it fixed a crossplatform issue too |
[19:00:05] | iamlindoro: | but from looking at my mac right now and how the patch works, it seems like it should |

[19:35:32] | Wicked: | hmm im trying to find the wiki article on the upcoming 0.22..it compares the mythui to xbmc and stuff...any ideas what the entry is called? |
[19:35:47] | Wicked: | nm i found it |
[19:36:02] | wagnerrp: | the theme mockup page? |
[19:36:16] | iamlindoro: | MythUI demo theme |
[19:36:55] | iamlindoro: | anyway, Myth will have tons of new eye candy, but it's not going to have *everything* that the XBMC UI has for .22, but it'll get more eye candy upgrades for .23 |
[19:36:57] | tmkt: | more like the 0.22 tease page |
[19:40:36] | juski: | it'll have stuff even XBMC hasn't got if I let rip :P |
[19:41:49] | iamlindoro: | well by all means |
[19:41:51] | iamlindoro: | let 'er rip :) |

[19:46:28] | Wicked: | ah yea |
[19:46:57] | Wicked: | i was just talking to my friend about mythtv and wanted to show him some how the upcoming version might look |
[19:47:44] | janneg: | why on earth would anyone invite a mailing list to facebook? |
[19:47:50] | iamlindoro: | http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Theme_Terra http://www.fecitfacta.com/Graphite/ |
[19:47:54] | Wicked: | would it be posssible to have both .21 and .22 setup? maby i can tell .22 to use a diff database....and only use .21 to record...im itching to play with .22 |
[19:47:55] | iamlindoro: | Those are how *actual* .22 themes look |
[19:48:13] | Wicked: | ah nice! |
[19:48:20] | wagnerrp: | you can, but its difficult to do on the same system |
[19:48:30] | Wicked: | ah |
[19:48:46] | juski: | well, how actual themes *could* look with the provided XML if somebody knocked a whole theme together |
[19:49:10] | iamlindoro: | juski: Hrm? Terra and Graphite look exactly like that :) |
[19:49:26] | wagnerrp: | yeah, those comparison shots are functional, but they are only a single page |
[19:49:26] | juski: | iamlindoro: yeah I was talking about the demo themes page. oops |
[19:49:30] | iamlindoro: | ah |
[19:49:30] | Wicked: | how about getting movie information? is that gonna be improved? im currently using a 3rd party script to parse for info...it works pretty good...but it does mess up on occasion...and the movie posters it pulls in are tiny...so they look all pixelated in mythvideo |
[19:49:43] | wagnerrp: | tmdb works great |
[19:49:50] | juski: | imdb.pl is deprecated |
[19:49:57] | iamlindoro: | Metadata handling in MythVideo is much improved |
[19:49:58] | wagnerrp: | the database isnt nearly as big as imdb's but it is growing |
[19:50:00] | iamlindoro: | if I do say so myself |
[19:50:01] | Wicked: | im using mythvideo-scanner.pl |
[19:50:10] | iamlindoro: | Everything that script does is wrong |
[19:50:17] | iamlindoro: | you will have a jacked up database for .22 |
[19:50:17] | Wicked: | mythvideo-scanner.pl? |
[19:50:19] | juski: | where do people pull these cockameemy scripts from? |
[19:50:19] | iamlindoro: | yes |
[19:50:23] | Wicked: | ah ok. |
[19:50:39] | Wicked: | is there something better i can use rigth now with .21? |
[19:50:53] | juski: | yeah tmdb.pl |
[19:51:08] | iamlindoro: | IMHO it'll be better to clear out the video portion of the DB when you get to .22 and rescan things-- there are multiple ways to get that done damn quick |
[19:51:09] | wagnerrp: | there is a page on the wiki explaining how to use it in place of imdb.pl |
[19:51:11] | Wicked: | hmm ok. and i can find info on that from the wiki? |
[19:51:23] | iamlindoro: | especially if you have any TV material in MythVideo |
[19:51:31] | Wicked: | ah. |
[19:52:39] | juski: | oh look! searching the wiki for 'tmdb.pl' found: |
[19:52:50] | Wicked: | ah damn. i gotta go guys. ill check out the tmdb.pl when i get back home. thanks for the info :) |

[19:53:59] | ** juski shoots the usless linker ** | |
[19:54:09] | iamlindoro: | it messes up allll the fields that appear in .22 |
[19:54:37] | iamlindoro: | trumee: You didn't set it up properly |
[19:54:51] | trumee: | iamlindoro, what do you mean? |
[19:55:00] | wagnerrp: | you probably did not specify any backends as capable of running said user job |
[19:55:02] | iamlindoro: | mythtv-setup has *two* checkboxes for User jobs... One for adding the user job, and one for "allow User Job x on this backend" |
[19:55:14] | trumee: | iamlindoro, i see. checking this |
[19:55:16] | iamlindoro: | You failed to do the latter |
[19:55:30] | wagnerrp: | should be on the same page (or maybe the one after) |
[19:55:47] | iamlindoro: | Think it's just before, actually |
[19:55:54] | iamlindoro: | but no way to check from here :) |

[19:56:45] | cityLights1: | hi all |
[19:56:56] | cityLights1: | is trunk in beta yet? |
[19:57:03] | GreyFoxx: | there is no such thing |
[19:57:04] | iamlindoro: | We don't do betas |
[19:57:08] | GreyFoxx: | trunk is trunk |
[19:57:10] | GreyFoxx: | until it's not |
[19:57:17] | cityLights1: | hi iam lindoro |
[19:57:18] | GreyFoxx: | and then it's still trunk, but a new branch exists |
[19:58:00] | GreyFoxx: | cityLights1: A feature freeze/call for users to start running trunk to get it ready for a release is likely to happen in the near future |
[19:58:09] | GreyFoxx: | It's been discussed |
[19:58:13] | iamlindoro: | possibly extremely near |
[19:58:22] | cityLights1: | fine , then let me rephrase your horner |
[19:58:34] | iamlindoro: | He wants to see your harmonica |
[19:58:36] | cityLights1: | I need hebrew support in search |
[19:58:47] | cityLights1: | I proved it is not working well now |
[19:59:06] | GreyFoxx: | cityLights1: You testd in trunk or in -fixes ? |
[19:59:07] | cityLights1: | trunk has utf-8 access to mysql |
[19:59:16] | iamlindoro: | UTF support is in trunk, and I have tested it with numerous non-western languages |
[19:59:19] | cityLights1: | in fixes |

[20:00:18] | iamlindoro: | will work fine in .22 |
[20:00:29] | cityLights1: | even thu it did show sevral hits |
[20:01:01] | cityLights1: | right iamlindoro, this is why I am asking about trunk |
[20:01:09] | cityLights1: | is preview picture there yet? |

[20:02:03] | ** GreyFoxx has never scanned analog channels, don't know anything about that ** | |
[20:02:11] | iamlindoro: | If you want detailed information on what has and has not happened in trunk, you need to check the commit logs |
[20:02:25] | cityLights1: | I opened a bug and daniel verified that dvb code is used to scan even when using a freme buffer |
[20:02:48] | iamlindoro: | cityLights1: If you opened a bug, and it hasn't been closed, then it hasn't been fixed |
[20:02:49] | GreyFoxx: | If the ticket is still open maybe you could add acomment asking if he had a chance to look at it |
[20:02:52] | iamlindoro: | that's how bugs tickets work |
[20:03:18] | trumee: | What does the "queue start time" in mythtv-setup mean. |
[20:03:21] | cityLights1: | is there anyone in the active members here that does use analog ? |
[20:03:25] | wagnerrp: | sometimes when it is closed, it still hasnt been fixed |
[20:03:31] | wagnerrp: | i use analog |
[20:03:40] | iamlindoro: | trumee: it means the time to start and end running anything in the queue |
[20:03:43] | trumee: | do i need to reduce that time |
[20:03:55] | GreyFoxx: | Ihave several analog tuners, but I'm never had to do achannel scan on any of them |
[20:04:03] | iamlindoro: | trumee: if you leave it the default, it'll run within minutes... if you ahve messed with it, you've change myth to only run jobs during certain hours |
[20:04:10] | cityLights1: | wagnerrp: do you use a frame buffer? |
[20:04:18] | iamlindoro: | frame *grabber* |
[20:04:22] | GreyFoxx: | mine are all mpeg cards though |
[20:04:23] | wagnerrp: | cityLights1: nope, a pair of mpeg encoders |
[20:04:25] | trumee: | iamlindoro, i might have messed it up then. what are the default values |
[20:04:43] | iamlindoro: | trumee: Read the help text, it tells you how to run at any time |
[20:04:45] | cityLights1: | Of topic , is there anyone here that understand graph theory? |

[20:07:52] | wagnerrp: | correct |
[20:08:16] | cityLights1: | as most often ppl come here to ask "which card to buy" |
[20:08:29] | cityLights1: | is there a rating of cards? |
[20:08:44] | iamlindoro: | no |
[20:09:04] | cityLights1: | as most often I read here that members deny there is ONE choce |
[20:09:04] | cityLights1: | choice |
[20:09:18] | cityLights1: | the other way of telling ppl to try out diffrent vendors – doesnt help... |
[20:09:21] | iamlindoro: | that's correct, there are many valid choices |
[20:09:23] | tmkt: | i love my geforce 9600 |
[20:09:34] | iamlindoro: | tmkt: Pretty sure he doesn't mean GPU |
[20:09:40] | cityLights1: | I mean the fact that a card has linux drivers – doesnt mean it gives good quality |
[20:09:41] | tmkt: | ah |
[20:09:44] | tmkt: | never mind |
[20:09:46] | tmkt: | yeah |
[20:10:00] | tmkt: | i'm just beat..i need someone to take my bike home, and let me sleep at the office |
[20:10:02] | wagnerrp: | cityLights1: no, but it does put it heads above most of the options available |
[20:10:09] | tmkt: | too much biking, too much basketball |
[20:10:28] | GreyFoxx: | cityLights1: So few people use framegrabbers now , so normally when talking about cards we are referring to dvb cards and picture quality does not vary from card to card |
[20:10:45] | wagnerrp: | the only thing that changes is capacity to tune |
[20:10:54] | cityLights1: | I see |
[20:10:56] | tmkt: | i love my hauppauge 1600 then |
[20:11:01] | wagnerrp: | which matters on broadcast, and to a lesser extent, satellite |
[20:11:05] | wagnerrp: | cable, not at all |
[20:11:19] | iamlindoro: | tmkt: He's on the wrong continent for that |
[20:11:29] | cityLights1: | as diffrent dvb cards offer diffrent chip sets – is there a chip sets that is favarable? |
[20:11:46] | tmkt: | i love my espresso then. |
[20:11:54] | iamlindoro: | he can probably find expresso :) |

[20:14:07] | kormoc: | 12 interviews for one position sounds... excessive... |

[20:14:49] | iamlindoro: | Ah... so Microsoft |
[20:14:52] | iamlindoro: | get out |
[20:14:52] | tmkt: | guess they want to see if they should spend the money to move me to california again |
[20:14:58] | wagnerrp: | with digital, the only thing you need to worry about is that your SNR is sufficiently high to get an errorless datastream |
[20:15:00] | kormoc: | iamlindoro, hrm. I contract for 14 Canadian companies, so I guess two of them are lieing? |
[20:15:29] | iamlindoro: | kormoc: Those last two were American companies with ", eh?" added to the end |
[20:15:36] | cityLights1: | so dont you see analong at all – anymore?> |
[20:15:41] | wagnerrp: | and considering transmissions can have something like 30% error rate, before you start dropping data, thats not all that difficult |
[20:15:51] | tmkt: | i know for sure..the second i move back to california, they will reopen up the Canada location again |
[20:15:54] | tmkt: | wankers |
[20:15:57] | GreyFoxx: | cityLights1: Analog yes, but not as much |
[20:16:02] | kormoc: | iamlindoro, hehe |
[20:16:11] | GreyFoxx: | and even then it's usually mpeg encoding cards live pvr150's and such |
[20:16:14] | iamlindoro: | And when we do, we pretty much insist that people find a hardware encoder |

[20:16:24] | trumee: | with or without quotes? |
[20:16:27] | GreyFoxx: | very few use framegrabbers except when they have an old one laying around they want to reuse |
[20:16:36] | cityLights1: | well I am still using only analong and so I still didnt find a good tx card |
[20:16:42] | tmkt: | that graphite theme is pretty |
[20:16:50] | wagnerrp: | or foolishly think using the framegrabber attached to their hybrid tuner is a good thing |

[20:18:08] | notlistening: | xris, np just the HR scan and myths internal |
[20:18:11] | iamlindoro: | xris: Think he's got a DVB-T HDHR |
[20:18:24] | xris: | ah |
[20:18:32] | cityLights1: | so I should seel my three frame buffers and buy an analog encoder card? |
[20:18:38] | notlistening: | yeah DVB-T |
[20:18:50] | wagnerrp: | grabbers |
[20:19:06] | cityLights1: | sorry |
[20:19:10] | cityLights1: | ok |
[20:19:15] | xris: | notlistening: ah, wouldn't help your case, then. |
[20:19:21] | cityLights1: | I will go back to study graphs |
[20:19:39] | cityLights1: | I will drop by in a week or so, to see if I can try trunk |
[20:19:40] | iamlindoro: | notlistening: Pretty much the only thing to do is run mythtv-setup in a verbose mode that will get the scan info and then open a ticket |
[20:19:43] | notlistening: | xris, , ok :P |
[20:20:03] | xris: | my issue wasn't channels not showing up, but that myth just wasn't using my hdhr to record (could still pick it manually for livetv) |

[20:20:20] | kormoc: | ooh, whoops |

[20:42:16] | kormoc: | you're coming off extremely jerkish right now, you knew very well she was giving the common user's answer... |
[20:42:32] | tavelram: | I could have a look at the nvidia tools though. |
[20:43:00] | wagnerrp: | 8x AGP cards can only run in 4x/8x boards right? |
[20:43:04] | tavelram: | kormoc, sorry? |
[20:43:31] | tavelram: | wagnerrp, are they really backwards compatible to 4x? |
[20:43:47] | kormoc: | wagnerrp, depends on the card and mobo I thought |
[20:44:00] | wagnerrp: | i believe 4x and 8x boards use a different keying than previous AGP implementations |
[20:44:14] | j-rod: | you can put an 8x card in a 2x slot too |
[20:44:37] | AndyCap: | anyhow, you can always find some circuit to give you composite sync from H and V |
[20:44:41] | kormoc: | http://www.playtool.com/pages/agpcompat/agp.html |
[20:44:42] | j-rod: | the only significant gotcha is if its an *apple* 2x slot w/their apple display connector |
[20:44:48] | j-rod: | apple used some of the pins for power |
[20:44:53] | tavelram: | but with rgb the pj is supposed to handle more than 1000 lines, and Im not sure how it works, ie would that mean I only get 15,625/1000 = 15,625Hz refresh rate? |
[20:45:05] | j-rod: | agp 4x and later uses those pins for faster signals, or some shit |
[20:45:07] | AndyCap: | this being a CRT practicality and WAF is out the windows anyway |
[20:45:09] | tavelram: | or is the 15kHz only tied to the s-video interface? |
[20:45:39] | j-rod: | I have a hacked up GeForce 6200 8x AGP card in an old Mac w/the ADC AGP slot, just have to tape over or cut some pins |
[20:47:54] | tavelram: | AndyCap, yeah, Ive seen a few. But switching the card to nvidia isnt that interresting, in that case id replace the whole system instead. |

[21:00:30] | tavelram: | adrian-kingston or something. |
[21:01:00] | AndyCap: | dunno if that can support more than regular resolution. |
[21:01:16] | AndyCap: | just read an ad for it |
[21:01:53] | tavelram: | ok, well im pretty sure that it can support >1000 lines when using component, since the manual says so, but what Im not sure about is if the 15,625 Hz is fixed even for component, or what. |
[21:02:57] | AndyCap: | nah, that was the 310. hmm |
[21:03:10] | juski: | oh ffs I've had enough of this. Just wasted an evening try to make rotatepulse |
[21:03:50] | tavelram: | so it seems that if i feed it with 1280x960, the 15625Hz results in a Hz of 15625/960 ~= 15Hz, which pretty bad :p |

[21:05:45] | juski: | you're probably wasting your time |
[21:05:47] | AndyCap: | tavelram: and I would think that it has a limit to how low a refreshrate it can handle |
[21:06:29] | AndyCap: | tavelram: I see 50–60Hz and 15khz which leaves you with normal SD resolution |
[21:06:32] | tavelram: | AndyCap, yeah, Ive found figures of 50/60Hz fixed, but that would imply that it can only handle stuff like PAL, so it kind of contradicts itself. |
[21:06:41] | tavelram: | indeed. |
[21:07:01] | tavelram: | AndyCap, so if you look at the component inputs, it says >1000 lines. |
[21:07:19] | tavelram: | juski, interresting that youd call this wasting :p |
[21:07:29] | AndyCap: | tavelram: um, where? |

[21:07:42] | tavelram: | iamlindoro, true :) |
[21:07:42] | kormoc: | what's the output display resolution? that's more important... |
[21:08:00] | juski: | give it PAL, see what happens :P |
[21:08:19] | tavelram: | AndyCap, look at the specifications, video definition, RGB. |
[21:08:20] | AndyCap: | kormoc: being a crt projector it's a little flexible |
[21:08:27] | kormoc: | ooh... crt... |
[21:09:51] | tavelram: | ive used it with s-vhs though windows on a different system before, so that part works, but since ive got this system and a gfx that can output rgb and HV-sync, i thought Id give it a try :) |

[21:29:43] | tavelram: | perhaps i shouldnt use mythtv then? or could i just stream from a server? |

[21:31:05] | tavelram: | juski, true, but the colorspace conversions could be done server-side? |

[21:31:19] | clever: | kormoc: while the ubuntu x server can handle it without a problem |
[21:31:23] | juski: | tavelram: ok then but you'll have to write it yourself |
[21:31:50] | tavelram: | juski, ok. |
[21:32:15] | AndyCap: | tavelram: hehe, that adrian guy also says he never actually tried using those 1000 lines. |
[21:33:32] | tavelram: | juski, i choosed #mythtv-users for my questions because its what i want to use, but otherwise ill just fall back to whatever works. |
[21:34:30] | tavelram: | AndyCap, indeed, but im fairly sure it works but that it means i get 15625/lines as refresh rate. i havent been playing with the pj for some time now though, and i figured this was a good way to jump-start :p |
[21:35:16] | tavelram: | at least Ill get a better signal with rgb than with s-vhs |
[21:35:25] | AndyCap: | tavelram: well, I don't think it will handle video far below 50 hz |
[21:36:03] | tavelram: | AndyCap, ok, well then its odd that it doesnt give a lower value of lines then. |

[21:38:09] | AndyCap: | tavelram: now, unless I'm just tired, it could be they're talking about horisontal resolution when saying 1000 lines |
[21:38:41] | sphery: | kormoc: those aren't actually identical time zones. PST8PDT is different from US/Pacific so even #5872 won't "fix" the issue for you. You can "see" that they're different with: sha1sum /usr/share/zoneinfo/PST8PDT /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Pacific |
[21:38:57] | sphery: | (though that doesn't tell you what differes) |
[21:39:18] | AndyCap: | tavelram: which would be about right |
[21:39:21] | tavelram: | well yeah, but probably not. the horisontal resolution is pretty much what i set the pixelclock to (within reason), basedon the number of lines. |
[21:39:38] | kormoc: | sphery, right you are |
[21:39:53] | sphery: | kormoc: but, basically, PST8PDT is an oversimplified (non-existent) zone that assumes that time has always used the DST offsets according to rules currently in place in US/Pacific |
[21:40:00] | kormoc: | sphery, so... thoughts on what to do fix? |
[21:40:02] | kormoc: | hrm |
[21:40:10] | tavelram: | AndyCap, you shouldnt underestimate 37Kg of old technology :p |
[21:40:10] | sphery: | kormoc: US/Pacific actually records the changes |
[21:40:34] | kormoc: | so my backend is wrong then |
[21:40:38] | kormoc: | I'll swap that over |
[21:40:46] | sphery: | kormoc: best fix is to change your 2 boxes to use the same zone, but if you can't change the system config: export TZ='US/Pacific' |
[21:40:56] | kormoc: | yeah, the OS X box can't change |

[21:41:10] | kormoc: | (I actually thought PST8PDT was correct...) |
[21:41:22] | AndyCap: | tavelram: well, don't fry it, or you'll have a 37kg paperweight. |
[21:41:22] | sphery: | it's "currently" correct :) |
[21:41:29] | tavelram: | indeed :) |
[21:41:54] | tavelram: | im trying to avoid that by trolling freenode :p. |
[21:42:11] | sphery: | kormoc: but it represents times that have occurred in the past incorrectly, so if you used the different ones, some recordings in those times wouldn't be available from host to host |
[21:42:34] | kormoc: | that's fine, I have no recordings right now |
[21:42:40] | sphery: | and it wasn't that long ago that the US changed the rules... (last year?) |
[21:42:43] | tavelram: | brb |
[21:43:10] | sphery: | kormoc: want me to put this info on the ticket and close it or you wanna take care of closing it? |
[21:43:20] | kormoc: | eather way |
[21:43:50] | sphery: | I'll do it with a bit of an explanation that may help others in similar situations understand why it won't work in Myth. |
[21:44:12] | sphery: | will be my first closed ticket... I'm glad it was you. :) |

[22:03:08] | lwizardl: | hi |
[22:04:54] | lwizardl: | I'm going to be installing my mythtv box again today. I've been having issues with tuning in channels |
[22:06:17] | lwizardl: | anyone here use comcast digital cable with mythtv and able to get all their subscribed channels |
[22:06:43] | ** kormoc points at xris ** | |
[22:07:02] | kormoc: | although it likely doesn't help you at all, as Comcast is a franchise and they all are different. |
[22:08:15] | Hoxzer: | what other proccesses than mythtv backend and Lirc could use a dvb card module ? |
[22:08:35] | Hoxzer: | kdvb perhaps ? |
[22:09:33] | lwizardl: | because last time i had mythtv installed all i was getting was a blue screen |
[22:11:51] | notlistening: | http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/6841 |
[22:12:02] | notlistening: | that took some putting together |
[22:12:34] | xris: | lwizardl: firewire? |
[22:12:38] | xris: | works great in seattle |
[22:12:51] | nighthawk (nighthawk!n=nighthaw@c-24-128-157-168.hsd1.nh.comcast.net) has joined #mythtv-users | |
[22:13:05] | lwizardl: | xris, i have a cable box that has firewire enabled so I could do that |
[22:13:20] | lwizardl: | but I would like to be able to record multiple shows at a time |
[22:13:21] | xris: | lwizardl: if it works, that's by FAR the easiest way to record from a cable box |
[22:13:32] | xris: | you can't do that from a cable box no matter what. |
[22:14:03] | meshe: | 1 cable box = 1 tuner |
[22:14:04] | lwizardl: | xris, yeah thats why i was wondering if it could be done with qam support on a pc card |
[22:14:28] | Hoxzer: | k. Manage to unload all of them with 'make rmmod' in v4l-dvb source dir. After stopping mythtv-backend and lircd |
[22:14:30] | xris: | lwizardl: depending on your market, you should be able to get some SD channels (and all broadcast HD channels) with clear qam |
[22:14:36] | xris: | my hdhomerun works great for that |
[22:15:09] | lwizardl: | xris, other than testing anyway to find out? |
[22:15:13] | xris: | especially because comcast just turned off encryption for all of the SD channels because their digital to ananlog converters can't deal with encryption (they're eventually turning off all analog, just like the broadcast stations did) |
[22:15:37] | xris: | lwizardl: http://silicondust.com — they have a "what's available to me" lookup on their site. |
[22:15:58] | xris: | and I'll happily plug the product. it works well, they're cool guys, *and* they play nice with linux/mythtv developers |
[22:16:05] | lwizardl: | ok http://www.silicondust.com/hdhomerun/lineup_w . . . ineup_499333 |

[22:18:57] | xris: | Shadow__X: it has a disabled-by-default phone home feature |
[22:19:23] | xris: | I think the windows/mac versions of the software prompt you to see if you're willing to share. the linux version doesn't. |
[22:19:53] | xris: | lwizardl: top left corner has a menu to pick provider |

[22:20:23] | lwizardl: | yeah battle creek is selected |
[22:20:32] | xris: | looks like you only get broadcast stations from comcast, although that info may be out of date because the opening up of SD non-broadcast is a slow rollout across the country |
[22:20:48] | Shadow__X: | xris: ah ok thanks thats a great feature |
[22:21:09] | xris: | Shadow__X: yeah. I asked how to send data back to them from linux, but they said it wasn't available (yet) |
[22:21:14] | tjcarter: | don't suppose there's anybody here from Portland, Oregon by chance? |
[22:21:15] | lwizardl: | but if i select bedford township it shows qam256 |
[22:21:42] | xris: | tjcarter: sorry, about 180 miles too far north |
[22:21:51] | tjcarter: | I know you are xris =D |
[22:21:54] | xris: | lwizardl: notice "broadcast" vs "comcast" |

[22:23:11] | xris: | ah |
[22:23:27] | tjcarter: | The question is, if I'm moving, I need services in Portland |
[22:23:53] | tjcarter: | So what's the cable situation like in Portland? |
[22:23:54] | xris: | I know a few pgsql people in portland. kormoc might know them better, tho |
[22:24:06] | xris: | not sure if any of them use mythtv, though |
[22:24:08] | tjcarter: | I figure that Verizon will suck |
[22:24:47] | Shadow__X: | dont be so sure |
[22:25:15] | Shadow__X: | apprently some people have gotten a thing or two through fios tv |
[22:25:23] | Shadow__X: | so i would say the best way ti know is to check |
[22:25:33] | tjcarter: | ... |
[22:26:01] | tjcarter: | "Hi, Verizon, do you make it easy to get lots of stuff into my MythTV box?" |
[22:26:05] | tjcarter: | "Your what?" |
[22:26:18] | Shadow__X: | or can i get stuff off of firewire |
[22:26:53] | notlistening: | oh the sarcasm |
[22:27:00] | gbee: | heh, well lots of people have actually had success in the past by just asking, it's a question of speaking to the right people though, mostly you want the technical peeps not support |
[22:27:10] | tjcarter: | right |
[22:27:15] | xris: | j-rod might know something about fios tv, although he's in boston. |
[22:27:31] | tjcarter: | I'm told that Comcast is usually workable |

[22:27:42] | j-rod: | yes, fiostv here, get stuff off firewire just fine |
[22:28:07] | Shadow__X: | tjcarter: i have comcast an am on the east coast i get all the channels sans premiums |

[22:37:54] | lwizardl: | motorola DCT6200 |
[22:38:33] | Wicked: | hey guys. im currently using mythvideo-scanner.pl to grab video information...but ive been told to use http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Tmdb.pl instead....will this conflict with the other script? |
[22:38:34] | lwizardl: | mine has 2 firewire ports on the back, and when i enter the access menu on the box they are both active |
[22:38:50] | tjcarter: | oh yeah, the DCT6200 almost always works fine |
[22:38:55] | Wicked: | can i wipe out the old info? or should i wipe out the old info? |
[22:39:31] | lwizardl: | now I just hope that my firewire addon card is supported in linux |
[22:39:34] | tjcarter: | realizing the 6200 is just a box and it can run whatever software they put on it--but the software that almost always gets used basically works |
[22:39:41] | xris: | lwizardl: if it's a 6200, the 2 ports are just for convenience. I use the second as a passthrough to a second box |
[22:40:37] | lwizardl: | xris, k. I know when the installer came he enabled the ports for me and told me how to keep checking that they was enabled in case they get shut off from home office |
[22:41:30] | tjcarter: | how stable is firewire recording these days? |
[22:41:56] | GreyFoxx: | works great for me up until I returned my stb last week :) |
[22:42:12] | lwizardl: | i told him i was going to use them for recording shows |
[22:42:32] | tjcarter: | It kinda worked with my SA3250HD |
[22:42:55] | GreyFoxx: | I I had a 6200 |
[22:43:26] | meshe: | GreyFoxx: decided to lower the cash vacuum that rogers has on you? |
[22:43:26] | Shadow__X: | i currently have a 6200 and it works flawlessly (knocks on wood) |
[22:43:41] | GreyFoxx: | Eastlink, but yeah |
[22:43:47] | meshe: | ahh |
[22:43:49] | Shadow__X: | prior to that i had a 3200 and that worked great too except it was a faulty box |
[22:43:55] | GreyFoxx: | I can get starchoice with more hd channels for a lot less |
[22:44:01] | GreyFoxx: | and record via an hdpvr |
[22:44:02] | Shadow__X: | so if you dont count the actual box being faulty it wsa great |
[22:44:09] | GreyFoxx: | but for now I'll live with regular cable |
[22:44:26] | meshe: | GreyFoxx: yeah, i much preferred satt when i had the choice |
[22:44:39] | GreyFoxx: | no monthly stb fee |
[22:44:43] | GreyFoxx: | and many more hd channels |
[22:45:14] | GreyFoxx: | and I know the company that installs them throughout NS and they will give me free stbs |
[22:45:22] | meshe: | nice |
[22:45:32] | GreyFoxx: | so more recording sources that will onlycost me the hdpvr/whatever cost |
[22:45:48] | meshe: | we paid like $150 for our bell dish and 2 stbs |
[22:46:02] | meshe: | that was SD though |
[22:46:09] | GreyFoxx: | It's like $34 a month, and you can have up to 4/6 stb's on your account |
[22:46:18] | GreyFoxx: | includes 28 or so hdtv channels |
[22:46:23] | meshe: | nice |
[22:46:28] | GreyFoxx: | some are timeshifted versions of the others |
[22:46:44] | GreyFoxx: | overall it's a much better deal |
[22:46:49] | GreyFoxx: | only downside is no firewire :) |
[22:47:07] | meshe: | yeah, that was one of the things i loved about satt, was the timeshifting (was my pre-myth days) |

[23:41:50] | janneg: | terra, and I tried all views |
[23:41:53] | iamlindoro: | oh, and if you're using file browser view, that won't work w/ SGs yet |
[23:42:09] | iamlindoro: | so you may need to switch that off |
[23:43:54] | Wicked: | damn i dont think there is a way to use tmdb.pl to batch update :( |
[23:44:04] | Wicked: | ....this will be....tedious |
[23:44:13] | wagnerrp: | mythtv is not capable of batch update |
[23:44:15] | iamlindoro: | or just wait for like five minutes for .22 |
[23:44:27] | wagnerrp: | eh? |
[23:44:30] | iamlindoro: | where you can reset all your metadata and use the new keybinding to get it fast fast |
[23:44:37] | d00gle: | Are any of the devs invovled with the S2API patch around ? |
[23:44:39] | iamlindoro: | still not batch update, but wayyyyy faster than .21 |
[23:44:48] | wagnerrp: | five minutes? |
[23:44:56] | iamlindoro: | wagnerrp, hyperbole |
[23:44:58] | Wicked: | yea 5 mins! |
[23:45:00] | Wicked: | lol |
[23:45:07] | Wicked: | dont tease us! |
[23:45:10] | iamlindoro: | Though a couple weeks isn't outside the realm of possibility |
[23:45:24] | janneg: | iamlindoro: all the video ... browses files are deactivated |
[23:45:28] | janneg: | d00gle: sure |
[23:45:35] | d00gle: | Hi janneg |
[23:45:50] | d00gle: | i've been following the patches on the 5882 ticket for a while now |
[23:46:02] | iamlindoro: | janneg, Well that's weird-- and you exited and let the cache die before going back in after your scan? |
[23:46:07] | iamlindoro: | (I'm sure you did, just checking) |
[23:46:17] | mazda01 (mazda01!n=mazda01@cpe-173-89-33-87.wi.res.rr.com) has joined #mythtv-users | |
[23:46:29] | d00gle: | and have never had success with getting lock when scanning DVB-S2 channels using my Nova-HD-S2 |
[23:46:41] | janneg: | yeah, restarted frontend and backend multiple times |
[23:46:43] | d00gle: | I've noticed your recent patches and the conversations on the DEV list |
[23:46:51] | Wicked: | anyone know if the tmdb can get pics for the folders the video is in? so in the main video manager when looking through movies the folder has the poster on it? |
[23:47:03] | iamlindoro: | janneg, can you select * from videometadata limit 1; so I can see? |
[23:47:05] | d00gle: | and tonight have noticed that if I first scan-s2 or szap-s2 to a transponder |
[23:47:22] | d00gle: | Myth will then lock to channels on that transponder, but not get lock on other transponders |
[23:47:23] | janneg: | d00gle: the patch from last week was buggy |
[23:47:28] | Wicked: | right now i have my videos like "/path/to/movies/12.Monkeys/12.monkeys.avi" |
[23:47:48] | d00gle: | Yeh, i'm using t5882_s2api_support_21234.diff at present |
[23:47:54] | d00gle: | against revision 21234 |
[23:48:02] | d00gle: | same behaviour still |
[23:48:50] | d00gle: | I havn't tried t5882_s2api_support_21249.diff yet as I guessed that was only updating to support past revisions 21249 |
[23:48:55] | Wicked: | like im not sure what the option -B <movieid> get movie backdrop does...apposed to -P <movieid> get movie poster |
[23:48:59] | iamlindoro: | Wicked, in .21 you can put a file called folder.jpg in the folder for it to appear as the icon for that folder |
[23:49:18] | iamlindoro: | Wicked, in .22 if you don't have that file, but there's a poster on the movie inside, the folder will get the movie's poster automatically |
[23:49:36] | janneg: | iamlindoro: http://mythtv.pastebin.ca/1528756 |
[23:49:37] | iamlindoro: | Wicked, Don't worry about backdrops, you can't use them in .21 anyway |
[23:49:54] | Wicked: | ah |
[23:50:01] | Wicked: | ok. thanks for the info :) |
[23:50:01] | d00gle: | I managed to get all of the transponders and channels scanned in mythtv-setup by locking to a channel on that transponder first with szap-s2 |
[23:50:11] | iamlindoro: | janneg, sure *looks* like it should be showing up |
[23:50:27] | iamlindoro: | janneg, I'm betting it's a frontend problem... do you have flat mode toggled on? |
[23:51:32] | iamlindoro: | and if it's very recent trunk, can you do "Browse By..." Folder |
[23:52:59] | iamlindoro: | curious what the frontend logs look like when you enter mythvideo |
[23:53:04] | janneg: | iamlindoro: already tried toggling that. I'm at [21257] and it use browse by folder |
[23:54:04] | d00gle: | janneg: is there any logs I can provide to help ? |
[23:54:19] | Wicked: | hmm now about tv seasons ive ripped from dvd? this tmdb.pl does not seem to work for finding info on tv shows. |
[23:54:56] | iamlindoro: | Wicked, no, it doesn't do TV shows. .22 has a TV grabber script that will be used automatically assuming you've named your episodes in some sane manner (and rescan w/ 22) |
[23:55:13] | Wicked: | ah |
[23:55:25] | Wicked: | ok. i really cannot wait for .22...... |
[23:55:39] | iamlindoro: | note janneg's pastebin above-- his file is sanely named, so all the right information went to the right spots for seas/episode/title/subtitle |
[23:55:44] | Wicked: | the more i hear about it...the more i grow inpatient ;0 |
[23:55:54] | janneg: | iamlindoro: lots of of "unable to find mv_gallery_dir.png" see #mythtv |
[23:56:07] | Wicked: | ah yea. that was a pita naming all the files correctly |
[23:56:16] | iamlindoro: | janneg, any chance you would swap to Graphite for a second and eliminate a theme issue? |
[23:56:16] | Wicked: | i had to do that with the mythvvideo-scanner script |
[23:56:37] | iamlindoro: | janneg, As that should be all self contained |
[23:56:38] | janneg: | and a "failed to scan %1" |
[23:56:58] | iamlindoro: | failed to scan %1 should only show up in file browse mode |
[23:57:11] | iamlindoro: | and being in file browse mode will give you what you have |
[23:57:14] | iamlindoro: | so I'd say you're stuck in it somehow |
[23:57:51] | iamlindoro: | But swapping it works here with unmodified trunk, so I'm not sure why it's not working for you |
[23:58:12] | Wicked: | how easy are you guys gonna make it migrate to .22? |
[23:58:24] | Wicked: | will there be alot of things a user has to do beforehand? |
[23:58:29] | iamlindoro: | As easy as any inter version update in Myth |
[23:58:42] | Wicked: | heh. ive only used .21 in my lifetime ;0 |
[23:58:53] | Wicked: | so im not at all familar with upgrading it |
[23:59:09] | iamlindoro: | As long as you haven't messed with your DB or used a bunch of promiscuous scripts, upgrading should be easy |
[23:59:27] | iamlindoro: | but as it seems you've been running a bunch of scripts, at least one of which I *know* inserts bad data, you might be in for an adventure |
[23:59:31] | Shadow__X: | all those naughty scrips out there |
