[00:01:14] iamlindoro: oobe, if you're going to apply trunk features, then don't use the release
[00:01:59] wagnerrp: thats probably something that will get backported to -fixes shortly after release anyway
[00:02:17] oobe: but one day soon im assuming trunk will be using different libs and protocol then it will get unstable
[00:02:26] oobe: wagnerrp, yes thats what i was asking
[00:02:45] iamlindoro: It's a feature
[00:02:55] iamlindoro: that doesn't mean it won't necessarily get backported, but it's not a fix
[00:03:04] oobe: ok i was unsure
[00:03:36] [R]: is the current trunk gonna be 0.23... or is it like 0.22-fixes?
[00:03:43] oobe: as nc a frontend and disconnecting other session seems like somthing that should be fixed
[00:03:50] iamlindoro: current trunk will be .23
[00:03:56] [R]: thats what i thought, thanks
[00:04:10] wagnerrp: oobe: its not a 'bug' so much as an intentional lack of a feature
[00:04:32] oobe: yea i see it both ways
[00:04:40] wagnerrp: the dev who wrote it was not contracted to allow multiple logins
[00:04:52] mzb: the bug is that attempting >1 connection results in dropping the 1st
[00:05:10] wagnerrp: its not a bug if it was intended behavior
[00:05:17] wolfspirit: do most of you have a cable box and then have that plugged into your tuner card? I have mine directly from the wall into the tuner, I only get the basic "network television" channels
[00:05:52] [R]: wolfspirit: i have a tuner that gets the clear QAM and i have an hdpvr plugged into my cable box
[00:07:18] wagnerrp: wolfspirit: you should NEVER have a tuner card plugged into your cable box
[00:07:50] Captain_Murdoch: iamlindoro, oobe, we may be allowing minor features to be backported to -fixes this time since we're shooting for a short release cycle to 0.23 early next year.
[00:07:52] wagnerrp: your cable box will not output atsc/qam, so a digital card would be completely useless
[00:08:18] Captain_Murdoch: rather than having a third -plus branch. this was discussed a day or two ago in the dev channel.
[00:08:20] wagnerrp: and an analog tuner card should use the video inputs (svideo) rather than the tuner
[00:08:32] wagnerrp: svideo >> composite >> rf
[00:08:50] oobe: wow so .23 could be out only 3 – 6 months after .22
[00:09:02] iamlindoro: somewhere in that range, yes
[00:09:10] Captain_Murdoch: yes, target is 3 < x < 6
[00:09:32] wagnerrp: oobe: consider that 0.22 was near a complete rewrite
[00:09:41] oobe: thats amazing you guys must be getting faster and faster
[00:09:49] oobe: i see
[00:09:50] iamlindoro: There's far less to do
[00:09:57] oobe: yeah i get it
[00:10:04] wagnerrp: the change from QT3 to QT4 was VERY large
[00:10:08] oobe: so now the foundation is set away we go
[00:11:40] wagnerrp: consider 0.22 was largely a rewrite, 0.23 is just new features
[00:11:50] oobe: yeah i see

[00:20:44] Dagmar: Some folks just seem clue-immune
[00:28:01] oobe: other folks make snide remarks based on little insight and contribute nothing of any use
[00:28:46] jst_home: so does one need to change the db charset (latin1 to utf8) before attempting to update a db from 0.21 to 0.22, or does the db upgrade do that for me?
[00:29:22] iamlindoro: jst_home, not only do you not need to do that, but manually doing so is likely to break your upgrade
[00:29:32] iamlindoro: the upgrade handles it all
[00:29:38] jst_home: iamlindoro: awesome, thanks!
[00:29:41] iamlindoro: np
[00:29:54] ** jst_home is slowly preparing to migrate his main mythtv system to 0.22 **

[01:35:08] computertreker: but i get errors in the backend log about no video codec being detected

[01:39:54] iamlindoro: if you don't have it, it means you compiled myth incorrectly

[05:21:20] bobc: I'm now on .22 and I notice that on the watch recording screens (any theme) it only uses preview images rather than video even though I have it set to use video. anyone else have this issue?
[05:21:33] iamlindoro: There is no video preview in .22
[05:21:43] bobc: thanks
[05:22:05] strex: thank you're cpu cycles. :)
[05:22:26] bobc: never had a problem with it before
[05:22:44] iamlindoro: It's not about CPU, the MythUI video widget hasn't been written
[05:22:57] bobc: I know it would be a problem for themes like terra and graphite, but not the 'old' style
[05:25:00] bobc: I also noticed that setting for showing the show info in watch recording when you are in the program list also doesn't have any effect
[05:25:20] iamlindoro: I can't even parse that sentence
[05:25:21] bobc: probably a poor description of the issue...

[05:28:20] Mode for #mythtv-users by ChanServ!ChanServ@services. : +v xris
[05:28:21] bobc: there is a setting to not show the summary, but simply the first show for that program, however it doesn't have any effect any longer in .22
[05:29:08] iamlindoro: Correct, the setting is no longer used
[05:30:18] bobc: is it another case of simply not having been implemented yet, or is it no longer felt it is needed or possible?
[05:31:31] iamlindoro: it will likely never be implemented, where has been a massive proliferation of useless/trivial/fiddly settings over the years and we are trying to replace as many as possible with sensible defaults
[05:31:36] iamlindoro: er there has
[05:32:06] iamlindoro: What can be replaced with menu options will be, what can be outright removed will be, and what can have a sensible default set will be
[05:33:17] iamlindoro: oh, and a fair number have been/are/will be replaced by giving the themer control of them, too
[05:34:41] bobc: the irritation is that some of these changes add additional steps to the most common uses
[05:35:35] bobc: the group summary adds an additional step if you want to play the first show in a program group
[05:36:14] iamlindoro: That part of it has to do with how MythUI works-- you can't have two selected buttonlists at the same time
[05:36:18] iamlindoro: only one can have focus
[05:36:56] iamlindoro: regardless, yes, there will be some growing pains, but given the extra code exists to save exactly one keystroke, I wouldn't anticipate it being added again, as that kind of hack is on its way out
[05:36:57] bobc: the removal of the right button menu activation to support right-left themes makes it slightly more awkward to get to the menu.
[05:37:52] [R] ([R]!n=rbox@unaffiliated/rbox) has quit ("Leaving")
[05:38:26] bobc: as I recall it was just the opposite though – the summary info was added with a 'show group summary' option and now it's been make default and the old standard that used less key strokes is being called a hack and removed
[05:39:06] iamlindoro: *shrug*
[05:39:23] iamlindoro: makes sense to me, personally, doesn't seem like one extra keystroke is worth fussing over
[05:40:35] bobc: it's one extra keystroke on the watch recording screen which is where the vast majority of people spend most of their time
[05:40:48] bobc: if it was a fairly uncommon screen it wouldn't matter
[05:41:10] iamlindoro: Well, don't know what to tell you-- we gain far, far more from the MythUI conversion that we lose by dumping old settings that the vast majority of people won't care about losing
[05:42:02] iamlindoro: Myth's settings need massive simplification, the decision in this case makes perfect sense to me, especially in light of the UI changes, and ultimately the people writing the code are going to make the calls that make the most sense to them
[05:42:37] bobc: well, it does always come down to that
[05:42:42] iamlindoro: Two buttonlists cannot have focus at the same time, and writing workarounds for a single screen encourages messy, broken code
[05:42:51] iamlindoro: so we are moving away from that kind of thing

[05:45:59] bobc: then both options (the video preview and group summary) should be removed prior to the release of .22 to avoid confusion
[05:46:29] bobc: the video preview can just be greyed out if it will be returning
[05:46:43] iamlindoro: Video widget will come back, but will not be user controlled
[05:47:07] iamlindoro: anyway, we are not making any more non-fatal fixes to .22 until after the release
[05:47:18] iamlindoro: after the release such a thing would be considered
[05:48:31] bobc: not a problem for me – just suggesting that you will get a lot fewer users confused and submitting tickets and emails if it is done
[05:48:55] iamlindoro: The .23 development cycle will be short enough that even if we do, it won't be long
[05:49:20] iamlindoro: and after a critical mass of information gets into the public, the answers become self-sustaining
[05:49:55] iamlindoro: There's lots of things it would have been nice to get in/cleaned up in time for the release, but now the focus is on providing fixes for crashes only and getting the release out, then turning to .23
[05:52:52] bobc: I have waffled over going back to .21 until .23, but I do like the new mythvideo features.
[05:53:48] iamlindoro: It boggles my mind that anyone would consider .22 a step back, but to each his own

[05:57:07] bobc: well, my wife and I don't find terra or graphite to our liking – the left-right themes seem rather awkward and don't show as many programs at once and have very small text – almost impossible to read from 10 ft
[05:57:53] iamlindoro: You could write a theme, it might even be fun :)
[05:57:58] bobc: in mythvideo with images in the background it is hard to see the videos
[05:58:06] iamlindoro: We've got docs for such a thing and everything now
[05:59:18] bobc: I don't want to feel that I don't appreciate the hard work you've been doing – I suppose it would be hard not to with what I've said and for that I apologize

[06:02:24] iamlindoro: but we wouldn't undertake it if there wasn't a sincere belief that in the end we will end up with a much, much nicer experience
[06:02:36] iamlindoro: not that stuarta hasn't worked hard, but you may mean stuartm :)

[06:04:14] iamlindoro: but that saying about omelettes and eggs :)
[06:04:52] iamlindoro: and we can't make it more accessible and more pretty without ripping out some of the stuff that just plain didn't make sense in the first place or which broke UI paradigms for a single screen
[06:05:17] bobc: I've been using mythtv since .09, so I've seen several changes that many people didn't appreciate – this is just the first time that I've had one

[06:09:32] hads: Yeah, less is more.
[06:10:27] hads: But that's what you get for such a complex configurable software.
[06:11:00] iamlindoro: Yes and no-- easily half of myth's settings could be removed and replaced with sensible defaults
[06:11:22] iamlindoro: Will it piss some people off? Yep. ultimately worth it to make myth accessible to more people? Absolutely
[06:12:25] iamlindoro: As it is, you could NEVER build a set top box on Myth for a lot of reasons, but the biggest is configuration complexity and near-impossible maintenance for a non-technical user
[06:12:27] hads: Yeah, I like the idea of removing bunches of settings from the UI and having sensible defaults. Though I think if you leave the settings in the DB then people have no reason to be pissed off.
[06:12:38] ddettman: what about an "advanced settings" option, where all but the most simple options are hidden, but still there if someone really needs it?
[06:12:47] hads: If they are that much of a power user they can change the settings with SQL

[06:13:16] iamlindoro: hads, Well, the settings wouldn't even remain in SQL, ideally
[06:13:30] iamlindoro: as there is not point in keeping many of them
[06:13:51] iamlindoro: 90% of those that remain should be hidden in an expert mode, and the bare minimum needed to run Myth should remain exposed
[06:13:59] hads: Agreed
[06:14:07] Wicked: i think having a normal options..then an advanced options mode is a good idea
[06:14:15] Wicked: just my 2 cents :)
[06:14:36] Wicked: kinda get best of both worlds.
[06:15:11] justinh: and if you don't get what you like, ask for a refund
[06:15:23] Wicked: lol
[06:15:52] bobc: the more options you have the harder it is to ensure that everything works correctly – especially with so much being theme dependent going forward
[06:16:27] bobc: it may make sense to have options based on the theme used
[06:16:44] iamlindoro: IMO having a lot theme related is a good thing-- you can simplify a lot of decisions most users shouldn't even get to make and write, say, a theme for a STB... or a mobile phone... or a high end PC

[07:57:31] hads: Screen size I think makes a difference, I just looked at the bedroom TV and it's a bit harder to read than the lounge.

[08:42:10] mzb: sorry, thought I recalled that you made that them ... or something
[08:42:14] mzb: s/theme
[08:42:27] gbee: Graphite, Mythbuntu, Blue Abstract and to some degree Terra (but Terra wasn't designed around it)
[08:42:46] mzb: ok, thanks ... I'll take a look
[08:44:14] mzb: where do I find Blue Abstract?
[08:44:37] mzb: looks like google is faster ;)
[08:44:47] justinh: it always is
[08:45:19] psj: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Blue_Abstract_Theme

[08:47:14] psj: it wasnt included when i installed .22 either
[08:49:00] mzb: it's mentioned on the themes page as part of the default theme package (kinda) ... would have thought that a trunk install would've included it
[08:49:15] mzb: (nm: *also* not a feature request!;)
[08:49:26] justinh: it's not included in trunk

[08:51:13] JAP-sylvain: hi!
[08:51:23] justinh: my wife has awful taste. she likes mepo ffs
[08:51:44] gbee: mzb: Blue Abstract is under the 'user contributed' themes which I'll grant is misleading, but anything in that section won't be found in official packages
[08:52:01] mzb: fair enough
[08:52:48] mzb: ok, so what do I do for fanart? (eg: with recordings)
[08:52:52] JAP-sylvain: I'm new in mythtv and I try to configure my tuner, it's japanese tuner, I find nothing in internet, somebody can help me please?
[08:53:27] mzb: *she* might let me get away with Blue Abstract ... if fanart is a "killer feature" ;)

[08:58:08] mzb: hehe
[08:58:24] mzb: so does fanart "just work" if I have a fanart directory defined?
[08:58:39] mzb: or is there something else I need to do/enable/... etc
[08:58:49] gbee: doesn't seem like anyone has had enough time to create a proper version of blootube for mythui
[08:59:21] justinh: eew. it uses alphapulse on the selection bar
[09:00:28] mzb: gee, it's big enough!
[09:00:53] justinh: lol
[09:00:56] justinh: 34MB
[09:00:57] mzb: (bt-ng)
[09:01:08] mzb: my gawd!
[09:01:20] justinh: how the hell it ended up that big is anybody's guess
[09:02:07] mzb: heh
[09:02:09] mzb: ah well
[09:02:14] mzb: we'll see
[09:02:40] mzb: if she likes it there's no problem with the size
[09:02:44] mzb: *cough*
[09:02:58] ** mzb puts *it* away **
[09:03:39] justinh: haha that's why it's so big
[09:03:50] justinh: he shoulda done an svn export
[09:04:04] justinh: right now it's got all the .svn directories in it
[09:06:09] mzb: great
[09:07:09] mzb: hmm ... I don't mind it that much
[09:07:13] mzb: (so far)
[09:07:22] pak0: i have a little question
[09:07:41] mzb: but either way I'd still like to know how to get fanart working!
[09:07:52] mzb: (ie: visible!)
[09:07:56] pak0: i have a doble tuner dvb-t, set it up correctly on mythbackend, two inputs, two connections, but i can only wach one channel at once
[09:08:16] mzb: sure you set up the second tuner?
[09:08:26] pak0: i think yes
[09:08:30] mzb: ie: not just the first tuner as 2x virtual tuners?
[09:08:36] pak0: /dev/dvb-/adapter0 and adapter1
[09:09:02] pak0: i look up on wiki for how to set up correctly, is any guide better?
[09:09:03] mzb: what does mythweb show you?
[09:09:09] pak0: 4 tunners xD
[09:09:10] mzb: (status)
[09:09:14] mzb: in use?

[09:09:42] mzb: watch the backend logs when you're trying to change channels ... I'm assuming you're talking about live tv
[09:09:46] justinh: what's xd?
[09:09:55] oobe: mzb, you define fanart directory in mythvideo settings along with scripts etc.
[09:10:05] pak0: in encoder status say i have 4 enconders on htpc and is not recording
[09:10:13] oobe: ~/.mythtv/MythVideo/Fanart
[09:10:14] mzb: thanks oobe, anything else to do?
[09:10:28] pak0: when i try to change channel say its blocked and try to change input (y) but i cant
[09:10:38] oobe: yes you need to get jamu and ttvdb working
[09:10:40] mzb: err ... how is that related to "recordings" fanart?
[09:10:45] oobe: but thats not too hard
[09:10:45] mzb: ah
[09:10:49] mzb: hmm
[09:10:56] oobe: they grab the artwork
[09:11:01] mzb: yep, gotcha
[09:11:04] justinh: mzb: bt-ng uses fanart as the background in 'watch recordings'
[09:11:12] justinh: nasty
[09:11:14] mzb: ooh
[09:11:22] mzb: that bad?
[09:11:47] oobe: i also have a modded version of blue-abtract that i like i can give you
[09:11:47] pak0: have to work now, latter i try it another time
[09:11:54] justinh: I never intended it to be used like that, so depending on the colour of the background... hmmm
[09:12:08] mzb: *she* seems to hate the sideways scrolling menu ... so it's either bt-ng or Blue Abstract (which has purple in it, so that might be a winner;))
[09:12:36] mzb: oobe, modded? still got purple in it? ;)
[09:12:46] justinh: I'm not a fan of horizontal scrolling anything either
[09:12:50] gbee: *sob*
[09:12:59] ** mzb pats gbee **
[09:13:12] mzb: sorry, couldn't convince her
[09:13:37] pak0: i have two set up on mythbackend two times my capture card? two times font video? two times connections?

[09:28:39] justinh: no mention of the tuner model, or what type it is (analogue or digital).. I suspect it's an analogue framegrabber card anyway – which is the least desirable of all tuners to have
[09:28:41] oobe: yo probs
[09:29:03] JAP-sylvain: it's digital tuner, ISDB-T
[09:29:19] justinh: ouch. no linux drivers for that

[10:54:41] mzb: this is all starting to sound biblical
[10:56:06] gbee: lets not forget patents, even if ISDB/ATSC devices were manufactured outside their respective countries of origin, they still win because they get income from patents they've made sure were tied into those specs

[12:33:10] pak0: i cannot find a good guide for set up two dvb-t cards =(
[12:34:03] justinh: setting up two dvb-t tuners is as easy as setting up one dvb-t tuner
[12:34:15] justinh: add the other tuner once you have added one
[12:34:50] pak0: i dunno what i have bad on settings now
[12:34:56] justinh: the 'video sources' name confuses a lot of people
[12:35:16] pak0: dvb-usb: error while querying for an remote control event.
[12:35:56] pak0: justinh, if i have a card with 2 turners, i have to set up tow captured cards on mythbackend? and two sources and two connections?
[12:36:14] justinh: no
[12:36:20] pak0: and.. just added another card, usb dvb-t with one tunners, and i dunno why myth breaks now
[12:36:30] justinh: just set up two capture devices & link both to the same source
[12:36:47] pak0: ok
[12:36:59] pak0: lets go to delete one source then xD
[12:37:10] justinh: you only need to set up additional 'video sources' if tuners get different channels
[12:37:22] justinh: if the lineup is the same across three tuners, you still only need one 'video source'
[12:38:42] pak0: hmmm
[12:39:10] pak0: but if i have one capture card with two turners, then i have to set up one capture devices only?
[12:39:40] justinh: no
[12:40:03] justinh: if it's a *dual* *tuner* then it's really TWO devices on one card
[12:40:19] justinh: maybe calling the menu item 'capture cards' was a mistake
[12:40:44] justinh: but when it was first written no dual tuner cards existed :P
[12:44:57] justinh: another area where setup wizards could help no end
[12:45:26] sid3windr: tooner setup
[12:45:42] justinh: and turner setup
[12:46:04] justinh: my sister's B&O TV has a built in turner you operate with its remote
[12:50:21] justinh: heh the pulseaudio creator has 'responded to critics'

[13:13:14] mzb: at the same time, with gui control, on-the-fly, integrated .... half-a-dozen?
[13:14:00] wagnerrp: no, thats the difference, this one has the GUI that lets you shift things around on-the-fly
[13:14:22] mzb: that's what I'm saying
[13:14:50] wagnerrp: the rest that ive seen are all set through env variables, making it rather difficult to shift around
[13:15:04] mzb: yep
[13:15:15] mzb: multiseat makes it worse
[13:15:38] wagnerrp: but think about that
[13:15:42] mzb: seem to have been a couple of brain-dead developers working on these things ;)
[13:16:14] wagnerrp: that means the only real advantage pulse gets you is the ability to switch between multiple locations and output cards
[13:16:27] justinh: multiseat.. pfft. skinflints. may they rot
[13:16:39] wagnerrp: certainly multi-seat and multi-computer setups are the rarity, even among linux users
[13:17:27] justinh: natural selection should be used to weed them out of future generations. Oh wait..
[13:17:46] wagnerrp: it doesnt explain why pulse suddenly got so large
[13:18:15] wagnerrp: it fixes a problem that exists in a niche market
[13:18:51] justinh: how did linuxmce end up being the 'mediacenter' of choice when KDE went looking?
[13:18:56] justinh: wheel greasing :)
[13:19:41] wagnerrp: i thought when ubuntu and friends started using pulseaudio, the pulse guys even said it wasnt ready for mainstream
[13:25:26] wagnerrp: basically, theres nothing wrong with pulseaudio, its just one more attempt at a sound server to make audio configuration easier
[13:25:52] wagnerrp: the problem is its ALSA implementation
[13:26:48] justinh: the problem is when developers point the finger at other projects & the user is left in the middle
[13:27:13] RDV_Linux: wagnerrp: My comment may be a little dated but if you use a mixture of passthru and PCM to a surround receiver pulseaudio is a pariah.
[13:27:16] wagnerrp: its incompleteness, and the fact that it became default on several large distros so suddenly, caused a lot of problems for mythtv (and a lot of people coming to here for help)

[13:29:17] wagnerrp: its basically going to take one of the pulse guys to fill out the additional capacities in ALSA emulation, or one of the myth guys to sit down and write a direct-to-pulse audio output
[13:30:47] mzb: works fine with pulse here ... can't remember what I did
[13:31:07] RDV_Linux: wagnerrp: When Ubuntu first included pulseaudio it messed up my audio so I went to the pulseaudio web site and right there they stated that they could not careless about passthru. That killed it for me. I also enjoyed see a web site titled fixing pulseaudio issues that were instructions on how to remove it.
[13:31:37] wagnerrp: mzb: did you compile mythtv with 'pulse support'?
[13:31:45] mzb: no idea
[13:31:55] justinh: but upmixing stereo & messing with the volume of digital signals is fun!
[13:32:01] justinh: :-\
[13:32:18] wagnerrp: are you using a relatively recent version of trunk/0.22-rc?
[13:32:30] justinh: audio buffs love introducing distortion at every available opportunity
[13:32:32] mzb: this is on my workstation (multiseat) ... so I only use mythtv here for editing. She sometimes watches it on her screen
[13:32:36] wagnerrp: like, the last couple months
[13:32:38] mzb: yes, trunk
[13:32:51] mzb: few weeks old, max
[13:32:57] mzb: (I hope)
[13:33:04] wagnerrp: trunk is currently set up to disable pulseaudio before it starts, so myth can access ALSA directly

[13:34:47] wagnerrp: assuming you have a halfway decent sound card with hardware muxing, it should work just fine
[13:35:05] wagnerrp: mplayer should cycle through a list of audio outputs until it finds one it can use
[13:35:18] mzb: xfi with dodgy drivers for this seat
[13:35:21] [Peter]: wagnerrp: unless one of them wants to use passthrough
[13:37:10] mzb: the way I look at it, the problems with pulse will either make it better (eventually) or kill it ... it's all good in the end

[14:21:56] ** sphery curses the engineer who decided to make a semi-randomly-timed, mostly-non-directional, very-annoying beep the only indicator of which smoke alarm has a bad battery... Would an LED have been so hard to add? **
[14:22:21] justinh: sfs: no
[14:22:30] wagnerrp: you wouldnt notice the LED
[14:23:02] wagnerrp: and generally, you dont have detectors close enough together that you cant figure out which one it is
[14:23:02] sfs: what exactly do you mean? please help me with that
[14:23:09] sphery: I would when it beeps and then I walk around to see which one has the LED on
[14:23:23] wagnerrp: ah, well both would work
[14:23:32] sphery: instead of spending 30s-3min standing in each doorway to see if that's the one with the bad battery
[14:23:45] wagnerrp: or maybe multiple beeps spaced a second apart
[14:23:55] sphery: and, yeah, I know they say to replace them all every year, but IMHO, that's a waste--especially when it will beep when it's really bad
[14:24:06] sfs: i have done the things mentioned here: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/SureWest_IPTV
[14:24:26] sphery: wagnerrp: yeah, that works too--just make it annoying enough that you /have/ to change it
[14:24:34] wagnerrp: HAHAHAHAH
[14:24:36] sfs: what exactly do you mean with encoders?
[14:24:51] justinh: capture devices
[14:24:54] wagnerrp: sfs: he means anything that is not a framegrabber
[14:25:10] wagnerrp: if its not a framegrabber, and provides pre-encoded video, mythtv calls it an encoder
[14:25:22] wagnerrp: HSN was selling a nintendo wii, with 15 addons
[14:25:24] resno: framegrabbers are totally awesome!
[14:25:25] justinh: or are iptv devices not listed in mythbackend's status page?
[14:25:29] sphery: sfs: looks like you missed the steps: # Using mythtv-setup, create a freebox IPTV "network" tuner in mythtv. Use the m3u file you created when prompted. Scan for channels and save your settings.
[14:25:42] sphery: and: Set up Schedules Direct for your listings. It sure would be nice to sniff the listings direct from SureWest too, but Schedules Direct is cheap and gives you more in the future.

[15:28:58] wagnerrp: that would be... a video player written in flash
[15:29:17] wagnerrp: although with some simple changes to mythweb, a direct link to the video could be exposed

[15:31:08] wagnerrp: youre not going to change that without writing the transcoder directly into mythtv, and interfacing it with a web server
[15:32:35] Essobi: Hmm.. There is Red5.
[15:34:03] Essobi: #
[15:34:03] Essobi: A software based H.264 codec with the ability to decode Base, Mainline and High profiles.
[15:34:05] wagnerrp: ugh...
[15:34:22] wagnerrp: i think it would be better NOT to require Java for every mythtv install
[15:34:26] Essobi: Supports those.. which you'd still have to transcode, but you could stream.
[15:34:59] whoDat: hmm so my options are 1. mythstreamtv (not sure if it works in .21) / 2. set up a seperate orb server alongside mythtv and point it to mythtv recordings / 3. use flash player which doesnt allow jumping to a certain spot in the video.
[15:35:06] Essobi: Eww, god it is in Java. *CRINGE*
[15:35:37] whoDat: 4. set up batch jobs (which is not on the fly)
[15:38:22] wagnerrp: 5. take the initiative and write up a transcoder into the file transfer protocol in mythtv
[15:39:27] mgisbers is now known as mgisbers_away
[15:39:54] whoDat: isn't that what mythstreamtv is, or no?
[15:40:16] wagnerrp: something like that *should* be in the base capability of myth
[15:40:39] wagnerrp: as it would benefit streaming, upnp, underpowered frontends, and a slew of other possibilities
[15:41:08] wagnerrp: but it would take someone who knows mythtv, ffmpeg, video processing, AND has the free time to do it
[15:41:32] wagnerrp: looks like mythstreamtv just shuffles the video off to VLC, which runs its own streaming web server
[15:41:50] whoDat: ahh, yeah i remember that now, it used vlc

[15:42:38] whoDat: yeah it mentioned storage groups being a problem.

[15:43:14] whoDat: i found this : http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=5785967&postcount=26
[15:43:21] wagnerrp: storage groups are a problem exactly, it just means you have to provide NFS access to remote files, rather than running it through myth's file transfer capability

[17:03:34] sphery: pak0: that would only help if a) you have lots of RAM, b) you have a "spotty" network connection such that the bitrate of throughput drops for several seconds at a time, but still has an average bitrate greater than the video's bitrate for all periods of duration ringbuffer_size / video_bitrate (i.e. wifi that's mostly good--which is not what pauses every 4s would imply), or it could help if your broadcaster is sending out ...
[17:03:40] sphery: ... garbage video with audio and video streams massively delayed from one another at any given offset in the "file" (though I doubt it would help then because Myth doesn't like that in general, and IIRC only handles offsets of a couple of seconds even with huge ring buffers)
[17:03:56] sphery: pak0: which means it's probably more likely some mundane system configuration or Myth configuration issues

[17:18:54] MythBork: Hello all. I was asked to give a little talk about the current state of MythTV at my users group this weekend. I was wondering if anyone is using the 0.22 version yet and if they could give me some of their thoughts on how it feels and performs compared to 0.21 etc. The only machine I have to test it on is a laptop and I don't think I'm getting the full impression.

[17:22:36] sphery: I know a lot of devs and users are using it full time in production. (I'm not one of them, so draw your own conclusions--more than anything, though, I'm not qualified to answer that.)
[17:23:04] pak0: sphery thanks, works like a charm with slim
[17:23:25] sphery: pak0: great... Slim is generally the best choice.
[17:23:32] pak0: and a little question more, when i record one program on hdtv channel, they create a great mpeg
[17:24:15] pak0: if i want to convert to mkv is better to use another program or what is the best solution? i want to record something on hdtv and share it on my tracker :)
[17:24:35] pak0: i see on some tracker the people uses .ts extension
[17:24:44] sphery: pak0: we don't discuss file sharing of copyrighted material here
[17:24:47] sphery: it's a bannable offense
[17:25:31] sphery: even if it's legal in your region, MythTV is primarily hosted on US properties where it's illegal and can get the project and developers in serious trouble.

[17:27:06] pak0: i dont are speaking about movies
[17:27:16] pak0: only sports events
[17:27:23] pak0: but on my region its possible
[17:27:27] pak0: i think xD
[17:28:03] pak0: thank you for your support sphery, i`m happy now
[17:29:52] wagnerrp: i got forced off the road by someone not paying attention, and then flipped off as if it were somehow my fault

[17:30:59] wagnerrp: i wonder what the legal penalties of building (and using) a RF weapon would be
[17:31:21] iamlindoro: MythBork: by monitoring mythtv.org (or this channel)
[17:31:33] MythBork: wagnerrp, slashdot ran an article on that about a week ago

[17:32:03] Dagmar: Incurring the paperwork for the police after you use one, that's the _real_ danger
[17:32:03] wagnerrp: slashdot was late, as usual
[17:32:26] iamlindoro: FWIW I have been using trunk for a long, long time in production-- The biggest issues with upgrading to .22 are not crashes, but issues users who are set in their ways will have with changing behaviors
[17:32:30] iamlindoro: MythBork: ^^
[17:32:32] wagnerrp: i swear officer, i dont know why their car, and radio, and phone, and... suddenly went dead
[17:32:39] MythBork: so sphery/iamlindoro – would you guys advise a clean install or is it probably OK to upgrade?

[17:34:41] MythBork: ok cool stuff. Maybe I'll upgrade on thursday, that's the say we don't ahve anythign scheduled to record, so I have time in case there's a problem
[17:34:54] MythBork: I'll check in later tonight
[17:34:54] sphery: then again, it may just be the 0.22 release (not a rc) and then would be announced on http://mythtv.org/
[17:35:04] iamlindoro: MythBork: by thursday it is very likely .22 itself will be out
[17:35:09] MythBork: oh wow
[17:35:14] sphery: right, likely before your talik
[17:35:16] sphery: talk, too
[17:35:18] MythBork: great
[17:35:39] MythBork: I'll try to upgrade then and be able to give first hand reports. Maybe even bring it in to show
[17:35:41] sphery: so if you're planning on bringing a demo system to show it off, I highly recommend installing 0.22 on it
[17:35:47] MythBork: sounds like a plan
[17:35:50] MythBork: thanks guys
[17:35:55] MythBork: TTYL
[17:35:58] sphery: and, if you have a need for tuners, you can set up a test tuner
[17:36:06] iamlindoro: and if you're doing a demo system, I highly recommend the Mythbuntu 9.10 beta
[17:36:14] iamlindoro: (and tehn add their nightly build repos and upgrade to current)
[17:36:17] MythBork: oh cool, I'm on mythbuntu now
[17:36:26] wagnerrp: but 120 should be enough for anyone
[17:36:26] sphery: where you copy over a (preferrably high-definition) MPEG-2 file and set up Myth to record from that file
[17:36:32] sphery: then you can show LiveTV in action
[17:36:38] sphery: of course, all channels show the same show
[17:36:45] sphery: and it always starts at the same time
[17:36:49] MythBork: lol

How am I supposed to keep up if I can't see the apple with the fetus and the smoke with the face? I think this should be fixed for 0.22--it's a blocker.
[17:42:14] wagnerrp: sphery: just wait until after the season, when someone deciphers it

[17:44:18] sphery: Captain_Murdoch: I just noticed with a E-Z edit when I cut some commercials (I'm worrying about space this season...). When I normally watch with notifications, I always saw them and just assumed the 1s extra was part of the 4s notification period
[17:44:42] sphery: Captain_Murdoch: that's what Julan Sanchez is for

[18:31:03] sphery: the problem that's killing it is actually a missing releasedate (which shouldn't have anything to do with the encoding), and the encoding issue may have been due to his terminal/mail config and not the script (or may have been the script)
[18:31:28] wagnerrp: well it fails under 'en_US.UTF-8'
[18:31:51] meshe: unicode in perl sucks if you're using any regular expressions
[18:32:02] Dagmar: no it doesn't.
[18:32:04] meshe: i'll have to wait until i reboot to have a look at it
[18:32:05] wagnerrp: and the tmdb site is down...
[18:33:01] meshe: it shouldnt' failt under en_US.UTF-8
[18:34:20] wagnerrp: is it a problem that the movie has been deleted from tmdb?
[18:34:25] meshe: fun: The server at svn.mythtv.org is taking too long to respond.
[18:34:59] Dagmar: meshe: You're using :encoding(utf8) right?
[18:35:32] wagnerrp: the images are still there, but the tmdbid has been removed
[18:35:58] sphery: maybe they took out the unicode in title?

[18:36:19] wagnerrp: 17484 is no longer on the website
[18:36:41] wagnerrp: its still referenced in the API, but the site just gives an error
[18:37:24] wagnerrp: and the search function is broken
[18:38:39] meshe: Dagmar: honestly i haven't messed with it for a couple years
[18:39:26] Dagmar: Ah, well, that's about the only thing afaik you have to do if Perl hasn't gotten the hint that the text it's been handed isn't utf8 in some other way
[18:39:41] messerting: So, I just recorded a program that the EPG claimed to be in HD quality, but I couldn't really see any difference. Is there a way to tell from the file or something?
[18:40:04] Dagmar: Once you do that, and stop using byte-oriented regexps like [a-zA-Z], charsets stop being a big ugly issue
[18:40:04] wagnerrp: messerting: an 'ffmpeg -i' will print out a bunch of information on the file
[18:40:11] iamlindoro: HD != wuality
[18:40:14] iamlindoro: quality
[18:40:28] sphery: exactly
[18:40:37] wagnerrp: but its very possible the show was broadcast in 720p or 1080i, but was an upscale from some original standard definition content
[18:40:41] sphery: though high-resolution can be determined with ffmpeg -i /path/to/file
[18:41:16] messerting: thanks, will try that :)
[18:41:28] sphery: messerting: and remember that digital != high-definition (regardless of what a certain user from San Francisco likes to say)
[18:41:31] meshe: sphery: i'm in windows atm, but the fix for that is: http://pastebin.ca/1630387
[18:41:42] messerting: :)
[18:41:46] Dagmar: It's one o' them weird perlIO things
[18:43:14] wagnerrp: looks like 48kbps AAC scores almost as well as 160kbps Ogg in a blind test
[18:43:15] meshe: Dagmar: yeah, i think that's what I was trying to do, was character based regexes on utf8 data
[18:43:34] wagnerrp: in other news, 30% of study participants have been found to be tone deaf
[18:43:52] iamlindoro: wagnerrp: which just goes to show that OGG is ~3x as crap as AAC ;)
[18:44:03] meshe: i never had a need to go back to figure it out and time was limited so I just had the user send me ascii
[18:44:37] messerting: Yep, seems my "HD" program was sent in 720x576...
[18:45:05] iamlindoro: blame the listings source
[18:45:05] messerting: at least, I recorded it in that format
[18:45:16] messerting: could it be some setting somewhere I'm missing?
[18:45:31] messerting: My card is capable of recording HD
[18:45:40] messerting: (Terratec Cinergy C HD)
[18:45:43] wagnerrp: well unless you captured it off your STB using analog capture, thats the resolution it was broadcast in
[18:45:44] iamlindoro: If you are recording digitally, no
[18:45:57] iamlindoro: ^^ exactly
[18:46:07] iamlindoro: meaning your listings source is to blame
[18:46:43] wagnerrp: and/or your cableco is to blame
[18:47:00] wagnerrp: listings source cant do much if the cableco gives it bad data
[18:47:01] messerting: ok, it was a direct capture from the digital source
[18:47:53] messerting: will ask around in the norwegian channel, maybe someone else is also using the same cable company. thank you for the help :)
[18:49:11] sphery: meshe: Thanks. I put that patch in my plugins series file, so I'll apply it (but after the release so I can put it in both trunk and -fixes).

[18:58:51] Dagmar: It's one way to do it
[18:58:59] wagnerrp: thats the way to move from one machine to another
[18:59:05] wagnerrp: has nothing to do with updating
[18:59:32] FinnTux: yes, I meant if I want to "clean up" my mythtv backend
[18:59:35] FinnTux: at the same time
[19:00:16] justinh: what do you mean 'clean up' ?
[19:00:29] iamlindoro: Get the granny porn out
[19:00:35] FinnTux: only keep recordings and start fresh with new settings
[19:00:46] wagnerrp: generally... http://mythtv.com/wiki/Database_Backup_and_Restore is the recommended way to clean up
[19:00:49] justinh: plenty of people have leftover settings from old frontends & plugins they no longer use
[19:00:50] iamlindoro: Will Myth remove my midget porn if I die in a car accident?

[19:01:23] justinh: in the big scheme of things settings etc don't take up much room
[19:01:25] FinnTux: oldest recordings is from october 2006
[19:01:28] FinnTux: -s
[19:01:35] wagnerrp: make sure to do so from the same database schema
[19:01:42] wagnerrp: meaning clean, and then update
[19:01:48] wagnerrp: or update, and then clean
[19:01:52] wagnerrp: but not both at the same time

[19:04:22] wagnerrp: J-e-f-f-A: that can be done in a matter of minutes
[19:04:54] wagnerrp: the menu layouts are separate than the themes
[19:05:31] J-e-f-f-A: wagnerrp: yeah, I know... just that msg in the users list is annoying... That's why I was thinking of that...
[19:06:14] justinh: a -users list message annoying? you really know how to narrow it down
[19:08:06] sphery: FinnTux: no, that's not correct
[19:08:07] iamlindoro: justinh: You know, the one about LiveTV ;)
[19:08:15] sphery: FinnTux: you should do a full backup and a full restore
[19:08:16] J-e-f-f-A: justinh: Hehehe... ;-) ^^ yeah, that one. ;-)
[19:09:13] FinnTux: sphery, you mean if I only want to save recordings? I don't care about tuners, frontend settings etc
[19:09:26] J-e-f-f-A: LiveTV having priority over recordings??? Gimme a break!!!!
[19:09:40] sphery: FinnTux: if you read http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Database_Backup_an . . . _of_a_backup (on the page that wagnerrp mentioned), you'll notice you can /not/ do a DB upgrade *and* a partial restore at the same time
[19:10:20] FinnTux: sphery, right, I wasn't going to anyways. sounded like a bad plan from the start
[19:10:25] sphery: you must either do a full backup/drop/new old-schema myth db/partial restore with the old version of Myth, then upgrade and do a full restore of the partial/unconfigured DB
[19:10:37] wagnerrp: sphery: already mentioned... but it can always stand to be pressed in
[19:11:00] sphery: or you must do a full restore/upgrade/schema upgrade/full backup/drop/new new-schema db/partial restore
[19:11:15] sphery: but really, there's no real benefit to a partial restore
[19:11:20] sphery: and it's not really recommended, anymore
[19:11:36] sphery: ah, yeah, I see... You were way ahead of me, wagnerrp
[19:11:53] wagnerrp: so no more suggesting of partial restores?
[19:11:59] sphery: no
[19:12:10] wagnerrp: will [not] do
[19:15:42] sphery: partial restore is really only useful for those people with corrupt DB's who hope that the 7 tables of recording info do not contain corrupt data
[19:15:46] sphery: fixing the wiki page, now

[20:43:10] jheizer: menu image looks niiiiice
[20:43:30] justinh: hey I wonder.. can the webkit thingy be made like a real panel – you could put a java scroller info thing in one of them I bet
[20:43:49] iamlindoro: justinh: yes, teh webbrowser widget can be used as a UI element
[20:44:00] iamlindoro: I wrote the patch to add the <url> tag to it :)
[20:44:01] justinh: never played with it yet
[20:44:21] justinh: so you could kinda have a realtime updating info panel thingy?
[20:44:44] iamlindoro: justinh: Somewhat, yeah-- last I worked with it the results were not great and unstable
[20:44:52] justinh: ah

[20:47:24] wagnerrp: justinh: i dont mean some random log file, i mean the stuff usually found in the system status screen
[20:47:29] clever: because the cancle takes several minutes to get thru the system
[20:47:57] wagnerrp: getting rid of system status all together, and making it some popup from any menu would be better
[20:48:03] clever: even when cancling a queued job that didnt have to stop anything
[20:48:18] wagnerrp: when you batch exporting the last couple weeks of recordings
[20:48:27] wagnerrp: being able to pull something up to see what has finished
[20:48:39] wagnerrp: rather than backing into system status

[20:55:54] iamlindoro: I thought the wiki was just an 8th grade writing assignment?
[20:56:19] RDV_Linux: iamlindoro: But I never passed the 8th grade
[20:56:25] wagnerrp: it 'ships' with mythtv, in contrib
[20:56:26] Wicked: i thought the scripts where installed when i installed mythtv as it says "The Miro Bridge scripts are typically installed in /usr/share/mythtv/mythvideo/scripts/ or /usr/local/share/mythtv/mythvideo/scripts/."
[20:56:31] iamlindoro: Wicked: "are installed" = "you should install it there"

[21:02:44] Wicked: http://www.getmiro.com/download/for-ubuntu/
[21:03:54] sphery: So, I noticed that when deleting a recording to the Deleted recgroup from the Default recgroup, we actually replace the whole value. I was thinking we should probably check to see if the recgroup is Default, and if so, just replace the "fault" with "leted" for efficiency.

[21:11:46] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: Responded to you on the list, but "video source" is a bit of a misnomer-- you create one for each provider/delivery method/etc.
[21:12:13] devinheitmueller: iamlindoro: Ah, gotcha. Yeah, I haven't spent *too* much time in MythTV-setup
[21:12:18] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: but for multiple tuners connected to the same course/delivery method, you can share a video source
[21:12:25] iamlindoro: er same source
[21:12:57] Wicked: storage directories setup in mythtv-setup will always over ride the options in mythfrontend right?
[21:13:05] devinheitmueller: The analog channel scanner is currently disabled in 0.22, so I haven't played with it much.
[21:13:08] AndrewNC_: that upstart config may not work on FC10, which I believe uses an outdated version syntax, I'll have to look into it
[21:13:09] Wicked: or is it vice versa
[21:13:15] AndrewNC_: or just upgrade to FC11
[21:14:02] iamlindoro: Wicked: Depends on the exact circumstance, but yes, generally SG takes priority

[21:21:08] iamlindoro: elmojo: When necessary, yeah
[21:21:09] sphery: AndrewNC_: I'm waiting for upstart to become less of an upstart before trusting it
[21:21:16] iamlindoro: elmojo: Predominantly for my blu ray content
[21:21:46] iamlindoro: (by which I mean legit blu ray content in m2ts containers)
[21:21:48] sphery: elmojo: Yeah, basically MPEG Systems streams should have them. Matroska shouldn't.
[21:21:57] sphery: some others might need them
[21:22:02] sphery: others won't
[21:22:09] sphery: hope that's not too specific for you

[21:22:58] elmojo: iamlindoro, sphery: so if a seek table is not present then seeking is performed by libav*, right?
[21:22:59] wagnerrp: hard drive?
[21:23:00] sphery: heh
[21:23:05] iamlindoro: sphery: mostly keep them as the original m2ts files
[21:23:18] sphery: oh... "in m2ts containers"... I'm slow
[21:23:40] iamlindoro: elmojo: In theory, yeah, but on at least one of my blu ray rips that never seemed to work... but last time I tried was before some of the recent seek fixes
[21:23:44] sphery: just making sure it didn't counter my little bit of specific info
[21:24:36] iamlindoro: The Dark Knight would relentlessly start playback over if you tried to skip without a seektable
[21:24:37] elmojo: iamlindoro: hopefully fixed now.... all my MPEG TS videos work now
[21:24:41] iamlindoro: adding one fixed it right up
[21:24:52] iamlindoro: elmojo: Nice, if I remember to I'll clear its seektable and try again tonight
[21:25:15] sphery: elmojo: clearing them can save a relatively large amount of space in your DB
[21:25:27] elmojo: iamlindoro: cool, wondering if having a seek table and using mythtv seeking is better than using libav seeking
[21:25:34] Dagmar: "relatively large" being an understatement in my case
[21:25:40] iamlindoro: I would *think* it would be faster
[21:25:45] iamlindoro: (to use the myth seektable)
[21:25:54] iamlindoro: but it probably really is a matter of inches
[21:25:54] sphery: yes, /much/ faster to use Myth's seektable
[21:26:03] sphery: and, more importantly, /much/ more likely to be accurate
[21:26:17] sphery: especially when going to "unexplored regions" of the video
[21:26:23] sphery: (i.e. skipping forward)
[21:26:29] elmojo: iamlindoro: no doubt about that... I have all my recording symbolically linked to my MV library and seeking in PBB works much faster than in MV
[21:26:30] sphery: and especially for variable bitrate stuff
[21:26:52] iamlindoro: Even with a seektable, skipping on certain sources is dog slow (HD-PVR)
[21:26:59] wagnerrp: which would be.. everything?
[21:27:14] sphery: yeah, most everything
[21:27:14] wagnerrp: what isnt variable bitrate anymore?
[21:27:19] sphery: very little CBR anymore
[21:27:30] wagnerrp: besides maybe old mpeg1 stuff
[21:27:36] sphery: but I figured I should throw that bit in just in case
[21:27:43] iamlindoro: poorly encoded pirate crap, maybe
[21:27:50] iamlindoro: ie someone trying to "break into the biz"
[21:27:53] sphery: didn't some of the old HD-PVR drivers only really work with CBR?
[21:27:58] wagnerrp: i imagine for them, the more passes, the better
[21:28:08] sphery: or maybe old myth only worked with HD-PVR CBR for a while?
[21:28:12] wagnerrp: and you by definition cannot run a multipass CBR
[21:28:44] iamlindoro: sphery: myth only produced HD-PVR CBR without some wrangling for a while, could that be what you mean?
[21:28:52] sphery: yeah
[21:29:21] sphery: I only remembered the terms "HD-PVR" and "CBR" were at one point linked (but no longer)

[21:32:10] wagnerrp: PVR-150 or 500
[21:32:13] iamlindoro: AndrewNC_: For my money, a PVR-150 or 500
[21:32:18] wagnerrp: only two choices available
[21:32:20] AndrewNC_: thx
[21:32:24] iamlindoro: If you could also use an extra digital tuner, an HVR-1600
[21:32:30] AndrewNC_: yeah, once I started looking at what was available and what worked..
[21:32:47] wagnerrp: arguably, a 1600 would not be considered 'cheap'
[21:32:50] AndrewNC_: is the 1600 the one that has issues w/nvidia driver?
[21:32:58] iamlindoro: well, ~$60 last time I checked
[21:33:19] AndrewNC_: I wouldn't mind an additional digital if it worked, as then it wouldn't be a throw away once cable analog dies
[21:33:24] sid3windr: webrings :D
[21:33:33] wagnerrp: only $60? seems theyre finally back down to where they were at release
[21:33:38] AndrewNC_: I'm thinking that the 2250 will never have analog support
[21:34:11] iamlindoro: wagnerrp: Hmm, google says $79 right now, so maybe what I saw was a fluke
[21:34:26] sphery: Fluke? No. Great deal? Yep.
[21:34:38] AndrewNC_: 84$ on amazon
[21:34:56] wagnerrp: (considering the old $50-$60 PVR-150 boxes used to contain HVR-1600s)
[21:34:58] iamlindoro: http://www.compuvest.com/Desc.jsp;jsessionid= . . . ?iid=1089121

[21:39:46] sphery: heh
[21:40:10] RDV_Linux: Wicked: Thanks and enjoy
[21:40:11] iamlindoro: FWIW devinheitmueller *is* some other dev
[21:40:26] iamlindoro: specifically, the type of guy who makes our tuners work in the first place
[21:40:34] wagnerrp: yeah, but hes one of those untrustworty types of devs
[21:40:44] wagnerrp: you know, the one you wouldnt transact with over IRC
[21:41:24] devinheitmueller: I just threw it out there because I've had one sitting in a drawer for about two years and don't have any planned used for it (I have another unit already in my collection of tuners)
[21:42:00] sphery: maybe you could do like a FSBO and split the (eBay) commission :)

[21:45:05] AndrewNC_: iamlindoro: yes, upon investigating, an upstanding fellow
[21:45:42] AndrewNC_: sphery: ebay takes too much cut these days, I sold a nikor lens a year ago and when it was all over with, I should have just kept it
[21:45:52] ** devinheitmueller does a quick google search of his own name to makes sure it doesn't come up with "... is a fraud" **
[21:46:11] ** iamlindoro registers devinheitmullerisafraud.com **
[21:46:34] devinheitmueller: HA!
[21:46:35] ** devinheitmueller gets ready to file his WIPO domain name dispute paperwork. **
[21:46:41] ** AndrewNC_ notices devinheitmullerisafraud.com redirects to iamlindororapedandmurderedachildin1990.com **
[21:47:00] sphery: AndrewNC_: no joke... I've only sold things that were useless to me and was amazed at the cut ebay took--and it's all spread out through various stuff throughout the process.
[21:47:00] elmojo: iamlindoro, sphery: did you guys check [22539]? Looks like he also negated ffrew_skip if play_speed > 0.0 which is opposite from the original code and not mentioned in the commit message
[21:47:00] iamlindoro: umm... wow
[21:47:08] AndrewNC_: that is a reference btw
[21:47:37] AndrewNC_: to a gilbert gottfried bit, I'm not actually suggesting you're a terrible person ;)
[21:48:31] sphery: elmojo: that still does the same type of thing for negatives--it's just a different construct from the ternary operator
[21:49:02] AndrewNC_: sphery: yeah, posting fees, closing fees, then paypal which they also owns, takes their cut, it is almost absurd, I'd be curious how their financials look since they've stepped up all the fees
[21:49:07] sphery: (basically, the first had an else, but this one doesn't, but this one only sets the value if it needs changing)
[21:49:48] elmojo: sphery: the previous code set it to -ffrew_skip if play_speed less than or equal to zero
[21:50:37] sphery: oh, I see what you're saying
[21:50:57] wagnerrp: AndrewNC_: yeah, because people who rape and murder children are actually really nice?
[21:51:10] sphery: I thought you were concerned about it's not having an else
[21:51:17] sphery: s/it's/its/
[21:51:54] elmojo: sphery: it even seems backwards... and it would have been nice for him to comment what 30 is in the code
[21:52:09] wagnerrp: that reminds me, does anyone elses' 3xFF not work under VDPAU?
[21:52:17] AndrewNC_: wagnerrp: well, Polanski didn't kill the girl,but he seems pretty popular... anyway, gottfried had that line about Bob Saget at his roast, and it became somewhat of a meme, I believe someone registered a domain to some pundit and started a stir
[21:52:18] wagnerrp: the audio goes mute, and it plays at the same speed
[21:52:39] elmojo: warnerrp: what version are you using?
[21:52:56] wagnerrp: trunk, revision directly before the branch
[21:53:02] Dagmar: AndrewNC_: Yeah he just gave her a "sliver" of a quaalude.
[21:53:15] Dagmar: He *should* have paid attention to her age.
[21:53:29] Dagmar: ...then he would have given her children's chewable quaaludes instead.

[21:54:17] elmojo: wagnerrp: what type of video and are watching from recordings or Myth Video?
[21:54:17] Dagmar: I think he could stand to spend six months in a minimum security facility
[21:54:40] wagnerrp: yeah, every time cops shoot someone around here, at night, running from the cops, with something that looks like a gun, and several dozen previous charges
[21:54:43] iamlindoro: HAHAAHAHAH.... "make -j 98"
[21:54:46] iamlindoro: "whoops"
[21:54:49] wagnerrp: someone gets on tv saying 'he was a good boy'
[21:54:51] sphery: elmojo: thanks for noticing. I passed it on to danielk (since he knows the video stuff/has access to HD-PVR recordings and has been busy in #mythtv)
[21:54:51] Dagmar: You can't exactly make an argument for the statute of limitations. That assumes you spent that time hiding out, in fear of capture, living a hardship
[21:54:52] AndrewNC_: Dagmar: that product sounded familiar, and sure enough google turns up plenty of hits
[21:55:03] Dagmar: ...not gallavanting around europe with supermodels.
[21:55:05] wagnerrp: elmojo: recordings, ATSC, in the PBB

[21:55:22] Dagmar: AndrewNC_: lots of sarcastic people on the internet
[21:55:23] AndrewNC_: wagnerrp: you in NE, or a city with similar reporters?
[21:55:52] wagnerrp: no, im in cincinnati, where the suppressed minorities like to riot
[21:56:09] AndrewNC_: ah yeah, I have a lot of family in the cincinnati area
[21:56:12] Dagmar: They're not doing a very good job of suppressing them, then.
[21:56:16] elmojo: wagnerrp: weird, I haven't noticed that at all... is it for all of your recordings or specific ones?
[21:56:29] wagnerrp: just noticed a couple this morning
[21:56:37] elmojo: sphery: thanks... normally wouldn't say anything but I know you guys are trying to get the RC done
[21:56:38] wagnerrp: doing a batch of transcoding
[21:56:48] wagnerrp: and was trying to get past the 'last time on...' garbage
[21:57:03] sphery: elmojo: yeah, that's an important one since it went into -fixes, too, so I'm /very/ glad you mentioned it
[21:57:14] sphery: elmojo: do you want to respond to the commit on the list or want me to?
[21:58:29] wagnerrp: 'make oldconfig' just uses default if i give no answer, right?
[21:58:37] Dagmar: Yes.
[21:58:49] Dagmar: It'll generally indicate which that is by capitalizing it
[21:58:58] Dagmar: Y/n/m/?
[21:59:02] wagnerrp: ah, that it does
[21:59:03] kormoc: if by no answer you mean a new line
[21:59:14] elmojo: sphery: you can if you'd like... might just want to ask gigem if it's correct or not
[21:59:25] Dagmar: Some options won't have a default, and will be a little snippy about repeating themselves when you just smack enter
[21:59:32] elmojo: sphery: he might have meant to make the change but forgot to mention it in the commit message
[21:59:58] wagnerrp: yeah, i lost something i actually wanted to record, so im trying to fix that PVR-150 issue
[22:00:14] wagnerrp: updating to 2.6.31, and the vanilla kernel rather than gentoo's modified one
[22:00:54] Dagmar: wagnerrp: You know then to actually put their config file in place before trying oldconfig, right? (just makin' sure)
[22:01:09] Dagmar: The makefile wont' go looking for /proc/config.gz
[22:01:09] elmojo: wagnerrp: odd, unless it's a seek table issue or something then I don't know why 3XFF would be broken
[22:01:26] elmojo: wagnerrp: have you tried rebuilding the seek table?
[22:01:27] wagnerrp: yeah, i assume it would have complained if .config didnt exist
[22:01:37] wagnerrp: elmojo: havent tried anything, ive been at work
[22:02:49] sphery: wagnerrp: doesn't the max possible FFWD speed when using VDPAU depend on card capability?
[22:03:08] sphery: though, really, up to 3x, I think we may actually just play the video faster...
[22:03:13] sphery: after 3x, we may just skip
[22:03:29] sphery: so vdpau doesn't get a real stream, and maybe doesn't handle that
[22:04:40] elmojo: sphery: correct upto 3X the video is just played 3X faster instead of skipping
[22:04:49] elmojo: so it's weird he is having a problem with 3X
[22:05:12] jheizer (jheizer!n=jon@c-71-57-90-153.hsd1.il.comcast.net) has quit ("Leaving")
[22:06:55] elmojo: wagnerrp: so did this all of a sudden start happening without upgrading or anything?
[22:07:40] elmojo: wagnerrp: and sphery brings up a good point about 3XFF in that it doesn't seek so a seek table shouldn't matter
[22:08:28] sphery: elmojo: was it at 3x we stopped using seek table or was 3x the last one where we use seek table
[22:09:20] elmojo: sphery: I thought we just played faster upto and including 3X, but could be mistaken
[22:10:05] sphery: yeah, I knew that 3x was special, but don't remember for sure which side of special it falls in

[22:23:23] elmojo: you would think so
[22:24:05] elmojo: sphery: I use VDPAU and have never noticed a problem with 3XFF even for ATSC 1080i
[22:24:22] sphery: with a pretty hefty GPU?
[22:24:31] sphery: and video RAM?
[22:24:39] sphery: I'm just guessing, though

[22:40:50] wagnerrp: i usually use something faster, or just skip
[22:41:10] wagnerrp: why is it that people think its their duty to prevent you from speeding?
[22:41:59] FinnTux: allright...I ran into a problem. mythtv-setup says it can't upgrade db schema. table oldrecorded is corrupted. "REPAIR TABLE oldrecorded" and mysqlcheck say it is ok.
[22:42:09] wagnerrp: i passed someone going 45 in a 35, so they sped up to 55, almost lost control in a couple turns, cut me off twice, and then proceeded to pace a car in the other lane
[22:43:30] Dagmar: Oh they weren't trying to stop you from speeding.
[22:43:35] Dagmar: They were just looking to get in your way
[22:43:54] Dagmar: You know what puts a stop to that?
[22:44:08] Dagmar: Driving a visibly beaten-up car.
[22:44:11] wagnerrp: yeah yeah... im support to stop not shooting them
[22:44:25] wagnerrp: you told me earlier
[22:45:00] Dagmar: If you're driving a nice new car, people assume you want to protect it.
[22:45:15] Dagmar: If you're driving a beater, people figure you're probably the reason it's beaten up.
[22:45:23] Dagmar: They'll get the eff out of your way.

[22:47:13] Dagmar: IBC used to be my favorite root beer in college for that reason
[22:48:41] wagnerrp: i dont think he would have heard me over the noise of his lowered racing truck with a big exhaust
[22:49:08] wagnerrp: he still had handles bolted onto the doors mind you
[22:49:22] wagnerrp: because he had trouble climbing into a truck no taller than my car
[22:49:43] Dagmar: Oh THAT was his problem then
[22:49:45] Dagmar: Small penis.
[22:49:54] Dagmar: Those people can't stand to be passed, ever.
[22:50:29] wagnerrp: why? he doesnt want to go that fast, why does he care if other people do?
[22:50:33] wagnerrp: they are not affecting him
[22:50:39] Dagmar: Shame on you for implying he wasn't man enough to lead by passing him
[22:50:40] wagnerrp: they make no difference to him
[22:51:16] Dagmar: it's not the speed, it's that you insulted his manhood by getting ahead of him, thereby asserting your superiour masculinity
[22:51:41] wagnerrp: i often wish i were telepathic, if for no other reason than to understand the thought process of other people on the road
[22:52:01] wagnerrp: my empathy is not strong
[22:52:25] Dagmar: You don't want that
