| [00:03:02] | Trinity33: | hi anyone here? |
| [00:03:06] | Trinity33: | hi need little help downloaded the last driver from linuxtv.org v4l-dvb then i went in to directory and typed make and got error v4l-dvb/v4l/firedtv-1394.c: In function 'fdtv_1394_exit': checked google and found that there is a bug so i need to change line in v4l-dvb/v41.confing before i will be able to make this file the problem is that i cant find config file there is config.bttv or config.cx88 kconfig etc |
| [00:03:06] | Trinity33: | and i |
| [00:03:06] | Trinity33: | should find the line CONFIG_DVB_FIREDTV=m and change it CONFIG_DVB_FIREDTV=n but i cant find it:) so need help to compile that driver |
| [00:03:58] | ** iamlindoro throws up his hands in frustration ** | |
| [00:04:08] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Iamlindoro, problem? |
| [00:04:15] | iamlindoro: | Trinity33, As mentioned to you (twice) in #mythtv, the channel you want in #linuxtv |
| [00:04:25] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Oh |

| [00:04:28] | iamlindoro: | Trinity33, You have asked your question there, you need to wait for an answer there |
| [00:04:37] | iamlindoro: | GadgetWisdomGuru, Nothing worth rehashing :) |
| [00:05:13] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Iamlindoro, how are you doing? I only know you by your name, what you record on your MythTV box, and your presence on the mailing list. |
| [00:05:39] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | But I enjoy your work. |
| [00:05:47] | iamlindoro: | GadgetWisdomGuru, Hanging in there :) Thanks! |
| [00:06:02] | iamlindoro: | haha, took me a second on "what I record on my box" |
| [00:06:11] | iamlindoro: | I really need to turn off that user job |
| [00:06:32] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Well, I followed the account after you sent a Tweet from it when I was discussing MythNetVision. |
| [00:06:57] | iamlindoro: | yeah, I'm not much of a twitterer so the account (which I set up to test the user job) kind of does double duty |
| [00:07:58] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Yes. Well, it took me a while to get into it and Identi.ca. I still stubbornly refuse to get into Facebook |
| [00:08:29] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | I'm predicting someone will try a MythTweet plugin in the vein of Seesmic Look someday |
| [00:08:44] | iamlindoro: | I already wrote a MythTwitter plugin this rotation :) |
| [00:09:10] | iamlindoro: | I may/probably will rework it for .24 or .25, too much on my plate |
| [00:09:20] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | I don't need it myself |
| [00:09:24] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | You've seen Look, right? |
| [00:09:28] | iamlindoro: | No, I haven't |
| [00:09:44] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | http://seesmic.com/look |
| [00:10:05] | iamlindoro: | The idea of MythTwitter was actually to expand it into all the screens to allow recommending a show, and have mythbackends do parsing of friend feeds to allow recommendations between mythboxen |
| [00:10:15] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | It just looks like a MythTV theme to me. |
| [00:10:18] | iamlindoro: | and to be able to comment on a particular show and have it show up on friends mythboxes, etc. |
| [00:10:27] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Iamlindoro, wouldn't a dedicated Status.net work better for that? |
| [00:11:30] | iamlindoro: | GadgetWisdomGuru, Well, the idea was to make it cross platform (and even cross-DVR), and to have others adopt the tweet format such that they're human readable, but interpretable by Myth, Sage, etc. |
| [00:12:40] | iamlindoro: | Who serves as the backend is somewhat unimportant, other than twitter is the most likely to continue to exist and stay up-ish |
| [00:12:52] | iamlindoro: | Anyway, off to play PS3 :) |
| [00:13:02] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Interesting. I'm always interested to see what people think. I'm a horrible programmer, but I like to try to be involved. |

| [00:21:11] | randomuser: | okay |
| [00:21:39] | randomuser: | i'm getting confused reading about the hardware, and trying to convert specs to functionality |
| [00:21:57] | Chicago: | randomuser, The Silicon Dust HD Homerun is quite excellent also. |
| [00:22:10] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Randomuser, what sort of signals d you want to receive? |
| [00:22:11] | kormoc: | randomuser: you need to tell us capture source information first |
| [00:22:40] | randomuser: | cable tv |
| [00:22:52] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Analog, Digital? HD, SD? |
| [00:22:53] | Chicago: | In that case, grab a pvr500 off ebay so you can watch more channels. |
| [00:23:41] | randomuser: | wouldn't i be shooting myself in the foot if i got an analog-only tuner at this point? |

| [00:24:52] | randomuser: | so youre saying digital tv signals are encrypted, and i won't get plug and play? |
| [00:24:56] | Chicago: | randomuser, the hvr-1600 has one of each; but it's analog tuner ain't so hot at this point. the pvr500 makes excellent video out of analog. |
| [00:25:16] | Chicago: | randomuser, you'll likely see ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX and your locals... and that should be about it. |
| [00:26:51] | randomuser: | i dont follow. If the same cable can plug into the tv, the signal viewed, channels changed, shouldnt i have the same functionality with the card? |
| [00:27:19] | Chicago: | randomuser, there are lots of channels on the wire. The ones you can see "plug and play" should be easily detected by MythTV. |
| [00:27:48] | kormoc: | randomuser: HD channels are different then SD, so knowing which one (or both) determines the solution |
| [00:28:20] | kormoc: | randomuser: but for digital cable, the hdpvr is the best solution to get all the channels you pay for |
| [00:28:50] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | You need a cable box for the HDPVR |
| [00:29:00] | kormoc: | you need a cable box for digital cable |
| [00:29:18] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Exactly |
| [00:29:31] | kormoc: | so it's not a unexpected requirement... |
| [00:29:39] | randomuser: | and does mythtv operate the cable box? |
| [00:29:53] | kormoc: | randomuser: myth changes channels on the cable box, yes |
| [00:30:07] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | You have to teach it to though |
| [00:30:07] | kormoc: | randomuser: and the hdpvr would record from the cable box's component outputs |
| [00:30:07] | randomuser: | i'm clarifying, because it seems that 'digital' is a marketing term for my provider, not a technical one |
| [00:30:19] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | how so? |
| [00:30:24] | kormoc: | randomuser: no, it's a technical one. it means it's not analog |
| [00:30:40] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | But, in the case of the HDPVR, it digitizes the analog hd output of a digital cable box. |
| [00:30:43] | kormoc: | and thus, encrypt able |
| [00:30:46] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | It's a loophole, not an ideal method. |
| [00:30:53] | ** kormoc blinks ** | |
| [00:30:58] | kormoc: | loophole? |
| [00:31:06] | Chicago: | kormoc, you blink alot on this topic |
| [00:31:06] | ** kormoc sighs ** | |
| [00:31:11] | kormoc: | Chicago: shock |
| [00:31:16] | kormoc: | it does that to a person |
| [00:31:17] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Kormoc, the Analog Loophole |
| [00:31:23] | kormoc: | it's not a loophole... |
| [00:31:36] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Yes it is. |
| [00:31:39] | kormoc: | calling it a loophole encourages the removal of fair use |

| [00:32:03] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | The cable box takes a digital signal, outputs it to analog, which is then digitized by the HDPVR back to a digital signal |
| [00:32:13] | kormoc: | randomuser: you can still get digital cable without a cable box, but it's rare, and if so, any QAM capable receiver would work with it |
| [00:32:16] | Chicago: | More like a red-headed stepchild of a feed. |
| [00:32:47] | kormoc: | GadgetWisdomGuru: so? Typically that goes on a few different places in the broadcast chain anyway... |
| [00:32:47] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | It is a methodology of fair use that requires you to exercise a loophole in the system that the cable companies have set up to prevent you from fair use |
| [00:32:48] | ** kormoc sighs ** | |
| [00:32:53] | Chicago: | randomuser, for what it's worth... you'll get a better transport stream of your local channels receiving their broadcasts with an antenna. |
| [00:32:53] | kormoc: | bah |
| [00:33:00] | kormoc: | I'm not going to argue with you about it |
| [00:33:05] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Kormoc, okay. |
| [00:33:12] | Chicago: | I'll argue. |
| [00:33:13] | kormoc: | but that term is why it's going to become disabled in the future |
| [00:33:15] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Chicago, I do that. |
| [00:33:21] | randomuser: | chicago: in theory. im in the sticks out here |
| [00:33:27] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Kormoc, time to buy an HDFury2 |
| [00:33:34] | kormoc: | illegal in the us to own |
| [00:33:40] | randomuser: | which brings up my next topic: sattelite |
| [00:33:48] | kormoc: | and forbidden from talking about in this channel |
| [00:34:00] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | It is? |
| [00:34:03] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Good to know |
| [00:34:15] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | I was not aware that thing was illegal |
| [00:34:20] | kormoc: | randomuser: some idea, hdpvr works great for satalite boxes with component out, pvr150 or similar works great for boxes with analog out |
| [00:34:36] | kormoc: | GadgetWisdomGuru: it breaks the DMCA |
| [00:34:36] | abqjp: | The HDFury2 is illegal to own? Then how come you can buy it from monoprice (in california)? |
| [00:34:46] | Chicago: | I just googled that thing... it doesn't look too impressive. |
| [00:35:21] | kormoc: | abqjp: same law that blocks dvd decryption, it's not enforced often, but technically, it's still illegal |
| [00:35:22] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | I'm surprised they haven't been served with a Cease and Desist order then. Hmm... |
| [00:35:23] | Chicago: | Why bother to uncompress MPEG-PS to an HDMI feed... and then use those bits? |
| [00:35:23] | randomuser: | if im getting the signal from the analog out of a cable box or satt reciever, how does the channel change, and how do i record simultaneous programs? |
| [00:35:42] | kormoc: | randomuser: you'd need one box per stream |

| [00:35:47] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Anyway, let's drop i that issue. |
| [00:35:48] | Chicago: | randomuser, for analog... the tuner in the pci-card can set the frequency. |
| [00:35:56] | kormoc: | randomuser: and you can use a ir blaster (prenteds to be a remote) or firewire |
| [00:35:57] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Randomuser, I use a combination of tuners |
| [00:36:08] | kormoc: | Chicago: that doesn't work with cable boxes, they only output on one channel |
| [00:36:23] | Chicago: | kormoc, I thought he could pull the analog feed without the cable box... |
| [00:36:27] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Cable through the HD-PVR, clearQAM through the SiliconDust HDHomeRun, and Broadcast through a PCI digital tuner card |
| [00:36:35] | kormoc: | Chicago: not for satellite |
| [00:36:37] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Chicago, if he has an analog feed. |
| [00:36:56] | randomuser: | so i don't need a specific sattelite tuner, just one reciever per tuner per show recorded at one time |
| [00:36:59] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | And Randomuser said satellite or cable. |
| [00:37:01] | Chicago: | randomuser, $600 later you can have enough tuners to cover all the bases. :) |
| [00:37:01] | abqjp: | GadgetWisdomGuru: why not HDHomeRun for broadcast too? That is the way I use it. |
| [00:37:03] | kormoc: | randomuser: correct |
| [00:37:21] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Abqjp, you mean one tuner for each? |
| [00:38:07] | randomuser: | on a dedicated box with enough horsepower, will a software based tuner outperform a hardware tuner? |
| [00:38:33] | kormoc: | randomuser: outperform? if by look better, a very few claim so, but the majority say otherwise |
| [00:38:36] | Chicago: | randomuser, probably not... because those chips that do the encoding are quite fancy and use very little CPU. |
| [00:38:36] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Randomuser, don't buy a software based tuner if you can help it |
| [00:39:10] | abqjp: | The HDHomerun works for both ClearQAM and ATSC. I have two HDHomeruns. Three of the four inputs are hooked up to my antenna, and one input is hooked up to my cable company. |

| [00:39:36] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Abqjp, the reception on my antenna is inconsistent. |
| [00:40:09] | abqjp: | I can see the towers from my roof, so I get good reception. Better OTA than via comcast. |
| [00:40:20] | randomuser: | i need to relocate. i will rejoin in a few, thanks for the advice so far. |
| [00:40:20] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Well, it isn't all channels, just some |
| [00:40:29] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | The antenna dates from the construction of the building in the late 70s. |
| [00:40:50] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | It was disused. I grabbed the old disconnected cable and reconnected it directly to my place. |
| [00:40:58] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Building switched to cable in the 90s. |
| [00:42:07] | Chicago: | GadgetWisdomGuru, the best argument I have for your "loophole" argument is that in many states, it's the utility regulatory commission which tells the cable carriers howto do their job. Enough abuse will cause people to put an initiative on the ballot to make things more fair. |
| [00:43:00] | Chicago: | The republic doesn't stand for much crap if they can do something about it... Sure they'll pay outrageous long distance rates and their cable bill... but when they find an alternative; they never will look back. |
| [00:43:21] | kormoc: | Selective output control is being attempted to be passed by the FCC (federally), which will allow cable companies to close the 'loophole' and then we won't have any way to record HD |
| [00:43:22] | Chicago: | Case in point... Vonage. |
| [00:44:02] | Chicago: | kormoc, yeah it's the copyright or privacy flag in the transmission isn't it? |
| [00:44:07] | kormoc: | no |
| [00:44:07] | Chicago: | I think the FCC just approved it. |
| [00:44:32] | kormoc: | the broadcast flag was dropped years ago, this is the newer replacement that's even worse |
| [00:44:44] | Chicago: | Geez.... |

| [00:45:01] | Chicago: | sooner or later I'm just going to care about public broadcast from the birds in the sky and forget about crappy cable carriers. |
| [00:45:08] | kormoc: | so the analog outputs will just be permanently deactivated |

| [00:45:20] | Chicago: | technically. |
| [00:45:39] | kormoc: | HDMI without HDCP will be allowed to be deactivated |
| [00:46:02] | Chicago: | There is dormant code in the HDMI spec which will make life difficult in 2012... I don't think they gave two cents waiting on the FCC. |
| [00:48:01] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Chicago, what is the dormant code? |
| [00:48:21] | Chicago: | GadgetWisdomGuru... it's DRM for the output device... so if your monitor doesn't have the right key... there will be no transmission. |
| [00:48:30] | Chicago: | Why do you think there are no more CRTs being produced? |
| [00:49:03] | kormoc: | that's just HDCP and they can turn on the requirement now if they wanted to |
| [00:49:23] | Chicago: | kormoc, ah. You probably are more familiar than I am with this. |

| [00:50:27] | Chicago: | I wonder if local governments can impose restrictions on the cable carriers which cause them to just leave town. |
| [00:50:44] | kormoc: | nope, they're governed by the FCC |
| [00:51:35] | Chicago: | What does the FCC have to do with sovereign states governing themselves? |
| [00:51:42] | Chicago: | That's the entire premise of federalism. |

| [00:52:36] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Chicago, local franchises could prevent a cable company from operating in a municipality. |
| [00:52:45] | kormoc: | afaik, no state has challenged the FCC rulings, so until that happens, so far they all follow the FCC rules |
| [00:52:48] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | But that is still subject to federal rules, which trump state rules. |
| [00:53:29] | Chicago: | GadgetWisdomGuru, in America we get the government we deserve.. and if you don't participate to form it to your liking; you're bound to suffer from abuses of power. |
| [00:54:13] | Chicago: | kormoc, I don't know of any case law in that regard either... I'm simply extremely sensitive to the rights of the people. |
| [00:55:52] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Chicago, what did we do to deserve half the politicians I didn't vote for? |
| [00:56:02] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Either way, that might be a question outside of our topic area. |
| [00:56:06] | Chicago: | GadgetWisdomGuru, blame your parents and your parents' parents. |
| [00:56:11] | Chicago: | true |

| [01:06:55] | randomuser: | if quality doesn't drop, i wonder if it could handle the load |
| [01:07:35] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | Randomuser, other than the cable box itself? |
| [01:10:28] | kormoc: | randomuser: pretty much everyone agrees that they're not worth the bother, including the guys who write the drivers and myth devs (like me) |
| [01:11:30] | Chicago: | randomuser, out of curiosity; why don't you prefer the cards with built-in encoders? |
| [01:12:59] | wagnerrp: | Chicago: huh? since when does HDMI support analog signals? |
| [01:14:26] | Chicago: | wagnerrp, What do you call a decoded digital stream which becomes completely uncompressed and needs expensive cables not to degrade? |
| [01:14:59] | kormoc: | it is still a digital signal, not a analog one |
| [01:15:12] | randomuser: | software decoders are far cheaper. |
| [01:15:16] | Beirdo: | argh! |
| [01:15:34] | Beirdo: | wonder if there's a #perl, and if it's useful |
| [01:15:50] | kormoc: | randomuser: but you're talking about a difference of a few bucks, maybe ten... |
| [01:15:57] | Beirdo: | yes, and we'll see |
| [01:16:19] | GadgetWisdomGuru: | I'm thinking of upgrading my output setup to HDMI because of the thinner cabling |
| [01:16:54] | wagnerrp: | analog signals mean they are infinitely variable within their bounds |
| [01:17:00] | randomuser: | so the $20 cards im looking at must be analog only |
| [01:17:16] | wagnerrp: | while digital signals are limited to two or more discrete states |
| [01:17:22] | kormoc: | $40 for a pvr 150, $30 for a m150 (pvr 250) |
| [01:19:16] | Chicago: | wagnerrp, Your description is very accurate.; |
| [01:19:52] | randomuser: | can a digital tuner take an analog signal? as in the pvr1600, with analog and digital tuners, can i record two analog channels at once |
| [01:19:54] | wagnerrp: | while DVI and HDMI are largely compatible in their digital signaling, DVI supports analog signaling while HDMI does not |
| [01:19:58] | Chicago: | Would you consider an uncompressed MPEG-PS to be a D-A approximation? |
| [01:20:29] | wagnerrp: | where would you ever find an uncompressed PS? |
| [01:20:35] | Chicago: | On HDMI |
| [01:20:43] | wagnerrp: | HDMI is not a program stream |
| [01:20:51] | wagnerrp: | it is its own protocol |
| [01:21:04] | Chicago: | Oh and I'm apples and orangesing again. sorry |
| [01:21:13] | wagnerrp: | and has nothing to do with digital-analog conversion |
| [01:21:20] | Beirdo: | randomuser: your client auto-joins?! |
| [01:21:21] | wagnerrp: | randomuser: that depends entirely on the card |
| [01:21:37] | wagnerrp: | some digital tuners can also take digital, some cannot |
| [01:22:04] | wagnerrp: | your card can capture both digital and analog at the same time, which is rare among tuners |
| [01:22:21] | wagnerrp: | however it can only do one of each, not two analog streams simultaneously |
| [01:22:26] | randomuser: | +beirdo: shut the laptop, drove away, opened. it thought it never left. |
| [01:24:05] | wagnerrp: | randomuser: basically, devs are in consensus that if you want to record content for storage, you want a mpeg encoder |

| [01:42:43] | Beirdo: | mythtv is mostly #2 |
| [01:42:55] | Pulse-R: | for instance – If I had a new shiny quad-core mac, it would not be a PVR |

| [01:43:04] | wagnerrp: | Pulse-R: its not like mythtv is doing anything to intentionally prevent you from using old hardware |
| [01:43:22] | mattwj2002: | does that include Blu Ray burner support? |
| [01:43:22] | mattwj2002: | :D |

| [02:29:22] | devinheitmueller: | diseqc? Do you have a satellite card? |
| [02:29:22] | Pulse-R: | you think its a gcc error, or more likely a config line? |
| [02:30:04] | wagnerrp: | 'i have two minimyth based frontends running xenon duos'... WTH is a xenon duo |
| [02:30:15] | innatech: | Xeon. |
| [02:30:16] | Beirdo: | Pulse-R: they likely changed the option in newer gcc |
| [02:30:26] | wagnerrp: | there is no such thing as a Xeon duo |
| [02:30:31] | innatech: | Dual proc? |
| [02:30:41] | devinheitmueller: | Pulse-R: did you add -maltivec ? |
| [02:30:48] | wagnerrp: | there are dual processor Xeons, but they were never marketed as such |
| [02:31:01] | innatech: | I've heard them referred to that way. I think... |
| [02:31:07] | iamlindoro: | Unconnected means *you* haven't defined your diseqc tree yet |
| [02:31:13] | iamlindoro: | Kinda like it says in the docs |
| [02:31:28] | Trinity33: | so how to do it? |
| [02:31:31] | Pulse-R: | I didn't – was just running the script as-is |
| [02:31:37] | iamlindoro: | and on the DVB-S wiki page some silly fool spend a day writing and illustrating with screenshots |
| [02:31:39] | innatech: | I mean dual CPU, not dual core. Like, Dell Power Edge servers from ~5 years ago. |
| [02:31:48] | iamlindoro: | It tells you how to do it in both places referenced above |
| [02:31:48] | innatech: | That'd be my guess, anyway. |
| [02:31:49] | Beirdo: | !trout Trinity33 Read The Docs PLEASE |
| [02:31:49] | ** MythLogBot slaps Trinity33 with a Read The Docs PLEASE trout on behalf of Beirdo... ** | |
| [02:32:05] | devinheitmueller: | Pulse-R: it is likely that the author of yuv2rgb never considered Mac support, so you might have to jump through some hoops to get it to build. |
| [02:32:06] | wagnerrp: | iamlindoro: did you ever set Internal as the default player for 0.22? |
| [02:32:18] | iamlindoro: | yeah |
| [02:32:31] | sphery: | Trinity33: wonderful writeup by a very smart man at http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/DVB-S |
| [02:32:31] | Beirdo: | devinheitmueller: it had worked before, I think. But who knows now |
| [02:32:49] | devinheitmueller: | Well, it probably just needs some tweaking to the options passed to the compiler. |
| [02:33:00] | Beirdo: | but still... the script may be for a newer version of gcc that needs tweaking for Tiger |

| [02:33:27] | Pulse-R: | the pl script is fine – it's the mythbuild script perhaps? |
| [02:33:30] | devinheitmueller: | (which in theory should prevent these sorts of issues) |
| [02:33:31] | iamlindoro: | And it was a real possibility |

| [02:36:08] | innatech: | What's the most sane way to approach controlling multiple, identical D*tv boxes by IR? A USB multiport IR xmitter natively supported by Myth? I'm going nuts trying to make sense of the Lircd docs. |
| [02:36:23] | Beirdo: | NO, newbie! no peeing on the carpet! |
| [02:36:46] | Beirdo: | innatech: natively by myth?! |
| [02:36:58] | innatech: | Well--as in listed in the menus by name. |
| [02:37:02] | Beirdo: | I think myth's main IR interface is lirc, is it not? |
| [02:37:15] | innatech: | i.e. the USB-UIRT II (out of stock :( ) |
| [02:37:18] | wagnerrp: | isnt Trinity33 the one who was in here earlier, unwilling to read any documentation? |
| [02:37:23] | Beirdo: | yes |
| [02:37:36] | Beirdo: | we swatted him with the rolled up docs then too |
| [02:37:50] | Beirdo: | and he came back to pee on the carpet again.. bad newbie. |
| [02:37:53] | Beirdo: | he'll learn |
| [02:38:14] | Beirdo: | or he'll be an outside puppy eventually |
| [02:38:16] | innatech: | OK, natively supported by Lirc then. I've read the wiki and the parts about multiple IR serial transmitters were not encouraging. |
| [02:38:45] | wagnerrp: | iamlindoro: its amusing all the people on mythtvtalk trying to use external player with storage groups |
| [02:38:55] | wagnerrp: | who cant comprehend why theyre getting 'myth://' links |
| [02:39:14] | iamlindoro: | I saw one thread, something about "how do I get rid of this myth:// crap??" |
| [02:39:14] | Beirdo: | innatech: sorry, but that would be a lirc issue :) |
| [02:39:26] | Beirdo: | iamlindoro: ummm, uninstall mythtv? :) |
| [02:39:27] | Beirdo: | hehe |
| [02:39:32] | wagnerrp: | heres another one 'mythvideo MKV and ISO' |
| [02:39:34] | innatech: | Yeah...not much support there so far. I was hoping someone might have confronted the issue. |
| [02:39:37] | iamlindoro: | that would be a quick way |
| [02:40:00] | Beirdo: | dunno, innatech. Hang around and maybe someone will pipe up after reading backlog? |
| [02:40:09] | innatech: | yup, one can always hope. |
| [02:40:11] | randomuser: | i handbrake mkv's |
| [02:40:16] | randomuser: | problem solved. |
| [02:40:22] | wagnerrp: | innatech: and if not, ask again in an hour or two |
| [02:40:54] | Beirdo: | if you find a solution, PLEASE document it somewhere :) |
| [02:41:05] | Beirdo: | I'm sure you're not the only person who'd want it |
| [02:41:16] | wagnerrp: | innatech: technically, mythtv does not support IR blasters... it just allows you to use an external channel changer script |
| [02:41:17] | Pulse-R: | Beirdo: any clue where to look in the source tree for yuv2rgb? |
| [02:41:22] | innatech: | oh, I don't need to be that noisy. I'll ask again tomorrow. And yes, I plan to write up the DirecTV related stuff when I figure it all out. |
| [02:41:31] | wagnerrp: | its up to you to properly handle your blaster |

| [02:52:53] | devinheitmueller: | The heisenbug is pretty rare for the stuff I've been working on lately. Plenty of traditional races though. |
| [02:53:01] | devinheitmueller: | welcome to my world. |
| [02:53:08] | Beirdo: | and usually when it's being demoed to the customer |
| [02:53:28] | devinheitmueller: | I love it when things explode when you do XYZ. Those are usually the easy ones to nail down. |
| [02:53:35] | wagnerrp: | heisen-bug? is that the one that watching for it causes it not to happen? |
| [02:53:35] | Beirdo: | yeah |
| [02:53:42] | devinheitmueller: | The other 90% of my time is spent finding the other weird cases. |

| [02:53:58] | Beirdo: | wagnerrp: essentially, yes |
| [02:54:03] | wagnerrp: | those are always fun |
| [02:54:12] | Beirdo: | totally unpredictable and annoying bugs |
| [02:54:27] | wagnerrp: | i had one where the act of putting in a couple print and flush statements effectively fixed the bug |
| [02:54:37] | Beirdo: | unfortunately relatively common in threaded applications |
| [02:54:43] | wagnerrp: | as it adjusted the timing just slightly enough to eliminate the possibility of some race condigion |
| [02:55:21] | Beirdo: | yeah, race conditions are often the culprit in the WTH bugs :) |
| [02:55:31] | devinheitmueller: | Under Windows I have some tools to help with those sorts of whacky cases. Under Linux it's kind of a bi**h. |
| [02:55:45] | Beirdo: | sad isn't it? |
| [02:55:51] | devinheitmueller: | It is what it is. |
| [02:55:56] | Beirdo: | you could spend your time developing them... |
| [02:56:03] | Beirdo: | or working on the real work |
| [02:56:10] | devinheitmueller: | Then your tuner wouldn't work. :-) |
| [02:56:11] | Beirdo: | so we all choose to do the real work |
| [02:56:20] | Beirdo: | exactly |
| [02:56:35] | devinheitmueller: | Well, *your* tuner might work, but perhaps not the next guy's. |
| [02:56:47] | Beirdo: | there is a line somewhere where it's better use of your time to develop them... |
| [02:57:16] | Beirdo: | but that means that tuner's just driving you bat-crazy and you have no other option |
| [02:57:27] | Beirdo: | so let's hope that doesn't happen :) |
| [02:57:45] | devinheitmueller: | Well, I've found debugging typically has two basic schools of thought: |
| [02:57:56] | devinheitmueller: | 1. Poke around at the likely culprits. or: |
| [02:58:01] | Beirdo: | when you get tempted to pull the card out and go Office Space on it |
| [02:58:16] | devinheitmueller: | 2. Methodically debug the problem. |
| [02:58:22] | Beirdo: | yup |
| [02:58:30] | devinheitmueller: | Knowing which to use when is the hard part. |
| [02:58:37] | Beirdo: | #1 will catch a pile quickly |
| [02:58:47] | Beirdo: | #2 will catch the remainder... slowly |
| [02:58:48] | Beirdo: | heh |
| [02:58:52] | devinheitmueller: | pretty much. |
| [02:59:20] | devinheitmueller: | Can you tell I'm from a hardware background. :-) |
| [02:59:26] | Beirdo: | yep :) |
| [02:59:42] | Beirdo: | I'm from the embedded software side... I can relate |
| [02:59:47] | devinheitmueller: | The tuners are getting two damn small to debug with a scope though. |
| [02:59:56] | devinheitmueller: | The latest one I worked on was smaller than a thumb drive. |
| [02:59:59] | devinheitmueller: | *Way* smaller. |
| [03:00:00] | Beirdo: | yeah, that I can believe |
| [03:00:10] | devinheitmueller: | As in exactly twice the size of the USB connector. |
| [03:00:15] | Beirdo: | micro-BGA or the equivalent? |
| [03:00:35] | devinheitmueller: | yeah, the whole thing was on a single chip – bridge, demod, *and* tuner. |
| [03:00:47] | Beirdo: | that would be incredibly difficult to put onto a scope or logic analyser |
| [03:00:58] | Beirdo: | if at all possible |
| [03:01:08] | Beirdo: | nice integration though. |
| [03:01:14] | Beirdo: | let's hope it WORKS |

| [03:01:57] | Beirdo: | that's cute |
| [03:01:58] | devinheitmueller: | Yeah, it works. |
| [03:02:14] | devinheitmueller: | At least according to all the users who have tried it so far. |
| [03:02:14] | Beirdo: | too bad I ain't got DVB-T :) |
| [03:02:36] | devinheitmueller: | PCTV makes an ATSC stick, but it's a little larger. |
| [03:02:52] | devinheitmueller: | It's actually the same mechanical profile as the nanostick shown in the third photo. |
| [03:03:10] | Beirdo: | man, if it were that size... |
| [03:03:16] | Beirdo: | that's not too bad |
| [03:03:33] | Beirdo: | but the pico... get a USB hub and put a few on there? hehe |
| [03:03:42] | Beirdo: | likely not have the bandwidth |
| [03:03:44] | devinheitmueller: | It's a shame they don't show them next to a coin or something so you can see the scale. |
| [03:03:55] | devinheitmueller: | Well, with DVB-T, the bandwidth would be ok. |
| [03:04:03] | devinheitmueller: | ... it's not analog or anything. |
| [03:04:07] | Beirdo: | knowing the size of the connector, that is impressive |
| [03:04:15] | devinheitmueller: | And at least the ATSC version has a hardware PID filter. |
| [03:04:22] | Beirdo: | that's good |
| [03:04:28] | devinheitmueller: | http://www.pctvsystems.com/Products/ProductsE . . . Default.aspx |
| [03:04:41] | devinheitmueller: | That pic is a little better, because the connector is slid back so you can see the USB. |
| [03:05:08] | Beirdo: | not bad at all |
| [03:05:34] | devinheitmueller: | digital only (ATSC/ClearQAM) |
| [03:05:44] | devinheitmueller: | ... but that's all many people care about nowadays. |
| [03:06:03] | Beirdo: | http://www.pctvsystems.com/Products/ProductsN . . . Default.aspx |
| [03:06:08] | Beirdo: | it seems |
| [03:06:18] | Beirdo: | yeah, that covers most uses |
| [03:06:19] | devinheitmueller: | Yeah, that's the ATSC equivalent device. |
| [03:06:29] | devinheitmueller: | (I was on the Europe page so it was just quicker to show you that one) |
| [03:06:38] | Beirdo: | yup |

| [03:07:15] | Beirdo: | I wish you luck |
| [03:07:27] | Beirdo: | and not too many kernel panics in the process |
| [03:07:59] | Beirdo: | heh |
| [03:08:14] | Beirdo: | they say that it's not possible to receive ATSC while moving? |
| [03:08:22] | Beirdo: | bah |
| [03:08:25] | devinheitmueller: | It's very difficult. |
| [03:08:30] | devinheitmueller: | That's why they're doing ATSC-MH. |
| [03:08:38] | devinheitmueller: | It's a problem related to the doppler effect. |
| [03:08:42] | Beirdo: | it should work OK if you have good enough signal |
| [03:08:45] | Beirdo: | oooh |
| [03:08:46] | Beirdo: | yeah |
| [03:08:47] | devinheitmueller: | Not really. |
| [03:08:51] | Beirdo: | gotcha |
| [03:08:57] | devinheitmueller: | But ATSC-MH will specifically solve the problem. |
| [03:08:59] | Beirdo: | I keep forgetting that.. |
| [03:09:11] | wagnerrp: | in tradeoff, VSB supposedly worked better for distance |
| [03:09:24] | devinheitmueller: | That's why it's funny when I go to Target and see portable ATSC receivers, and then look for the disclaimer that talks about how you cannot use it in a car. |
| [03:09:28] | Beirdo: | sorry, it HAS been 13 years since I graduated from university... some things get foggy |
| [03:09:50] | devinheitmueller: | Well, your knowledge is tied to the things you *need* to know. |
| [03:09:58] | devinheitmueller: | like most people... |
| [03:09:59] | Beirdo: | and my brain was thinking QAM encoding :) |
| [03:10:01] | Beirdo: | yeah |
| [03:10:13] | Beirdo: | QAM is possible (or should be) while moving |
| [03:10:33] | devinheitmueller: | yeah. |
| [03:10:33] | Beirdo: | that's how many pre-GSM mobile devices worked (Mobitex for instance) |
| [03:10:51] | Beirdo: | but yeah, VSB ain't QAM :) |
| [03:11:04] | devinheitmueller: | nope. That's why the letters are different. ;-0 |
| [03:11:06] | devinheitmueller: | :-) |
| [03:11:56] | jamesd2: | i think the people invented acronyms loved alphabet soup |
| [03:12:05] | devinheitmueller: | perhaps. |
| [03:12:12] | devinheitmueller: | I like the acronym "TLA" in particular. |
| [03:12:15] | Beirdo: | and as a Amateur Radio (non)operator, I should know that sideband-based signals are funky when ya move |
| [03:12:22] | Beirdo: | yeah |
| [03:12:33] | Beirdo: | we used to play TLA games at university at times |
| [03:13:01] | Beirdo: | Electrical Engineering students truly are geeky :) |
| [03:13:07] | devinheitmueller: | it's true. |
| [03:13:13] | devinheitmueller: | Which school? |
| [03:13:22] | Beirdo: | University of Waterloo |
| [03:13:24] | Beirdo: | 1997 |
| [03:13:25] | devinheitmueller: | ah |
| [03:13:53] | Beirdo: | kinda miss the university days |
| [03:14:07] | devinheitmueller: | they had their benefits I'm sure. |
| [03:14:26] | Beirdo: | almost enough that I'd half consider doing a masters... but... I like getting paid. |
| [03:14:42] | devinheitmueller: | ... not uncommon. |
| [03:14:48] | wagnerrp: | now wait a minute... we used to have a boat, and had no problems using a SSB radio at speed |
| [03:15:54] | devinheitmueller: | wagnerrp: don't ask me – I'm not the electrical engineer... |
| [03:15:54] | Beirdo: | you wouldn't notice the frequency variations much on audio |
| [03:16:20] | Beirdo: | but you CAN hear it if you listen carefully |
| [03:16:23] | wagnerrp: | ok, so analog reception isnt affected much, only digital? |
| [03:16:46] | Beirdo: | well, our ears naturally don't care that much |
| [03:17:03] | Beirdo: | but digital receivers with complex encoding... does |
| [03:17:29] | devinheitmueller: | Reed solomon can only compensate so much. Ultimately, the digital signal has to be 100% correct. |
| [03:17:40] | devinheitmueller: | Stupid ones and zeros. |
| [03:17:44] | Beirdo: | yeah. :) |
| [03:17:45] | wagnerrp: | im surprised they couldnt compensate for that with some form of GPS |
| [03:17:53] | Beirdo: | and don't forget multipath ouches |
| [03:18:08] | devinheitmueller: | Yeah, multipath is a b**ch |
| [03:18:17] | Beirdo: | the bane of the digital radio :) |
| [03:18:24] | devinheitmueller: | The newer tuners handle it much better. |
| [03:18:30] | Beirdo: | yeah, thankfully |
| [03:18:31] | wagnerrp: | you would have to know where the station is |
| [03:18:43] | wagnerrp: | but youve got speed and direction, you could compensate for the shift |
| [03:18:48] | Beirdo: | some stupid cellphones don't even deal with it well |
| [03:19:20] | Beirdo: | especially in urban environments where so many of us live |
| [03:19:35] | Beirdo: | hi-rises are great for bouncing signals all over the place |
| [03:19:50] | devinheitmueller: | yup. |
| [03:19:57] | devinheitmueller: | I've got some really bad mulitpath here. |
| [03:20:02] | Beirdo: | heh, I guess you get it worse than most |
| [03:20:16] | Beirdo: | especially if you're in Manhattan :) |
| [03:20:18] | devinheitmueller: | The ghosting made analog tv pretty much unwatchable. |
| [03:20:38] | Beirdo: | I bet |
| [03:20:45] | Beirdo: | it was bad enough downtown Toronto |
| [03:20:53] | Beirdo: | and that is much smaller |
| [03:20:58] | devinheitmueller: | Depends on where you are in manhattan. |
| [03:21:08] | devinheitmueller: | My location is a bit of an edge case. |
| [03:21:20] | devinheitmueller: | Generally speaking it isn't too bad. |
| [03:21:24] | Beirdo: | of course, many of the signals downtown TO are coming from the CN Tower, and not much multipath applies then |
| [03:21:39] | Beirdo: | direct LOS to almost the entire city of 4M people |
| [03:21:55] | devinheitmueller: | nice |
| [03:22:02] | Beirdo: | flippin tall antenna... that's what the CN Tower was designed for |
| [03:22:28] | Beirdo: | tallest free-standing tower in the world... for analog TV and FM radio |
| [03:22:32] | devinheitmueller: | Well my tower was designed as a docking station for blimps. |
| [03:22:40] | devinheitmueller: | (seriously) |
| [03:22:42] | bonelifer (bonelifer!HydraIRC@ACA26AE1.ipt.aol.com) has joined #mythtv-users | |
| [03:22:54] | Beirdo: | heh, yeah |
| [03:23:06] | devinheitmueller: | They only tried it *once* and realized what a bad idea it was. |
| [03:23:06] | Beirdo: | Empire State? |
| [03:23:10] | devinheitmueller: | yup. |
| [03:23:17] | devinheitmueller: | I didn't show you the photo? |
| [03:23:22] | Beirdo: | Yeah, I remember seeing something about it |
| [03:24:03] | wagnerrp: | nothing quite like a blimp in high winds |
| [03:24:04] | Beirdo: | it would still make a decent antenna tower |
| [03:24:15] | devinheitmueller: | http://devinheitmueller.com/dsc00801.jpg |
| [03:24:18] | Beirdo: | if you can keep King Kong off it |
| [03:24:20] | wagnerrp: | i dont know who ever thought that would be a good idea |
| [03:24:23] | devinheitmueller: | I'm literally in the shadow of the transmitter. |
| [03:24:23] | bonelifer: | anyone suggest a USB wireless G stick that will work with Karmic out of the box, I'm not looking for blazing speed, just something that works. |
| [03:24:46] | wagnerrp: | bonelifer: are you looking to stream mythtv content over wireless g? |
| [03:25:07] | bonelifer: | no, just to get the guide info over the network. |
| [03:25:27] | Beirdo: | devinheitmueller: I had a similar situation with the CN Tower, but not THAT close ;) |
| [03:25:42] | devinheitmueller: | Yeah, I'm at 1 block. |
| [03:25:50] | Beirdo: | but I nearly had to look directly up |
| [03:26:04] | Beirdo: | I was at Bay St and Queens Quay |
| [03:26:12] | devinheitmueller: | That photo doesn't really do it justice until you realize that I'm pointing the camera up at an 80 degree angle. |
| [03:26:15] | Beirdo: | if you ever look at google maps for TO |
| [03:26:20] | Beirdo: | yeah |
| [03:27:20] | bonelifer: | I have one but it doesn't work. lsusb shows it as as 148f:2770 RaLink Technology, Corp. Which ubuntuforums suggest shares the rt2870sta drivers. |
| [03:27:25] | Beirdo: | CN Tower was 3 blocks over and 2 north or so |
| [03:27:40] | bonelifer: | Sometimes after fiddling it'll say it's connected, but later it won't reconnect. |
| [03:28:10] | devinheitmueller: | gotcha. |
| [03:28:20] | Beirdo: | I miss Harborfront sometimes... Downtown Toronto tries very hard to be like Manhattan... |
| [03:28:25] | Beirdo: | and almost succeeds |
| [03:28:28] | devinheitmueller: | heh |
| [03:28:43] | Beirdo: | in the good AND bad parts |

| [03:38:19] | innatech: | I'm beginning to think the "easiest" way to handle multiple, identical D*tv STBs over IR is to use multiple VMs with a minimal distro and talk to lircd on each over the network. Heh. |
| [03:38:45] | devinheitmueller: | heh, found the bugger. ;-) |
| [03:39:59] | Loto: | cant you reference each blaster individually? |

| [03:41:56] | Loto: | ah |
| [03:42:19] | Loto: | just curious |

| [03:53:18] | Loto: | haha :) |
| [03:53:20] | Beirdo: | 2 pages |
| [03:53:23] | Loto: | ah not bad |

| [03:55:52] | Beirdo: | as I'll be 2 blocks from one next week :) |
| [03:56:03] | innatech: | My education continues....lircd can't talk over USB/serial adapters. So my little experiment would require a PCI serial board. |
| [03:56:38] | Beirdo: | innatech: can it use parallel port? |
| [03:56:58] | Beirdo: | you could bit-bang a bunch of transmitters in parallel |
| [03:57:01] | innatech: | Maybe....but I'd rather not deal with that. |
| [03:57:07] | Beirdo: | wuss :) |
| [03:57:11] | innatech: | Yes. |
| [03:57:14] | Beirdo: | heh |
| [03:57:21] | Loto: | maybe usb audio blasters would work? |
| [03:57:29] | Beirdo: | I think I might just roll my own when I get to that stage |
| [03:57:31] | Loto: | or does lirc only support recieve on thoes |
| [03:57:54] | wagnerrp: | apparently someone put together transmit support a couple months ago |
| [03:58:04] | Loto: | pretty cheap and easy |
| [03:58:13] | innatech: | I dunno. $20 for a PCI card isn't too bad. |
| [03:58:14] | Beirdo: | make a parallel port dongle and drive multiple IR LEDs... with an AVR or PIC on board to control em |
| [03:58:24] | ** Beirdo geeks out ** | |
| [03:58:41] | Loto: | STB sound like such a pain :( |
| [03:58:45] | innatech: | Pass each port to a VM, run lirc, make it |
| [03:58:50] | innatech: | listen over the network. |
| [03:58:53] | wagnerrp: | Beirdo: yeah... i dare say thats beyond nearly everyone in here |
| [03:58:54] | Loto: | would be nice if we could capture digitally |
| [03:58:59] | Loto: | but analog? blah |
| [03:59:06] | Beirdo: | wagnerrp: heh, could be |
| [03:59:18] | Beirdo: | heck, use an AVR with USB-slave in it |
| [03:59:32] | Beirdo: | make my own USB – multi transmitter |
| [03:59:38] | wagnerrp: | Loto: complain to your nearest representative/senator |
| [03:59:43] | Beirdo: | wouldn't be hard if you know how to do it |
| [04:00:11] | wagnerrp: | inform them that all this crap has nothing to do with piracy, and everything to do with controlling the consumer |
| [04:00:26] | wagnerrp: | theyll get pissed off that theyre losing absolute control to the corporation |
| [04:00:34] | Loto: | meh tbh i dont use myth anymore not that i dont like it |
| [04:00:43] | innatech: | I looked at some lirc listserv archives...they seemed to think someone who knows hardware could write a driver for the common usb/serial chipsets easily..but as of Jun 09 hadn't been done yet. |
| [04:00:44] | Loto: | i just dont buy cable |
| [04:00:45] | Beirdo: | everything about the almighty dollar, and thei ain't getting the pork... |
| [04:00:56] | wagnerrp: | even more reason to use myth |
| [04:01:02] | wagnerrp: | there is no limitation with broadcast tv |
| [04:01:13] | Loto: | indeed, i only get 4 stations here tho |
| [04:01:19] | Loto: | hd digital anyways |
| [04:01:21] | wagnerrp: | ah, well thats a problem |
| [04:01:24] | Beirdo: | innatech: hmmm... I might get convinced later :) too many things to do now |
| [04:01:25] | Loto: | :) |
| [04:01:28] | wagnerrp: | bigger antenna? |
| [04:01:30] | ** Loto is in canada ** | |
| [04:01:32] | Loto: | nah |
| [04:01:38] | Loto: | too far north to get us stations |
| [04:01:46] | Beirdo: | ohhh, in the sticks. |
| [04:01:49] | wagnerrp: | bigger antenna on a pole? |
| [04:01:51] | Beirdo: | even better |
| [04:01:55] | Beirdo: | heh. |
| [04:01:58] | Loto: | not *that* bad ;) |
| [04:02:03] | Beirdo: | how far north? |
| [04:02:07] | Loto: | but seattles stations are behind the mountains |
| [04:02:15] | wagnerrp: | a _big_ pole |
| [04:02:23] | innatech: | Berido: something to think about. It would certainly simplify handling multiple identical boxes, which a lot of sat and cable customers get stuck with. |

| [04:03:32] | Beirdo: | hoping to move to Seattle sometime soon |
| [04:03:35] | Loto: | its alright if you like outdoor stuff |
| [04:03:41] | Loto: | we dont have much nightlife or anything |
| [04:03:42] | Beirdo: | camping++ |
| [04:03:50] | Loto: | yeah lots of camping round these parts |
| [04:03:53] | wagnerrp: | im surprised you cant pick up stuff from Vancouver |
| [04:04:02] | Loto: | im going on a fishing durby this weekend |
| [04:04:05] | Loto: | out on the west coast |
| [04:04:07] | Beirdo: | nightlife = trip to liquor store and sitting around the campfire with Cuban cigars |
| [04:04:24] | Loto: | wagnerrp : i do... i think you overestimate the # of stations in vancouver |
| [04:04:41] | Loto: | CTV, CBC, GLOBAL |
| [04:04:44] | Beirdo: | and doubful Victoria has many either |

| [04:04:59] | Loto: | CHEK isnt broadcasting digital yet |
| [04:05:11] | Loto: | i can get KVOS from bellingham |
| [04:05:12] | Beirdo: | and you can't see Bellingham or anything, I bet |
| [04:05:14] | Beirdo: | oh |

| [04:17:53] | tehpola: | has anyone had success with serving music over UPnP with MythTV? I've tried setting something up, and it'll find all the local songs on the front end, and it'll try to serve those over UPnP, but it doesn't work because they're not local |
| [04:18:22] | wagnerrp: | the upnp server only works with local music and videos |

| [04:18:27] | Beirdo: | nearly every day in fact |
| [04:18:31] | wagnerrp: | it can only stream files it has direct access to |
| [04:18:32] | tehpola: | so I think I'm approaching this the wrong way: I want to have songs on my backend served to UPnP clients |
| [04:18:48] | tehpola: | but I've served recorded video over UPnP |
| [04:19:03] | wagnerrp: | recorded video is different, since it can pull from any backend over mythproto |
| [04:19:24] | tehpola: | is there any chance of music being served that way in the near future? |
| [04:19:33] | wagnerrp: | define 'near' |
| [04:19:36] | Loto: | but its warm Beirdo |
| [04:19:37] | Loto: | haha |
| [04:19:41] | Loto: | its much cooler here |
| [04:19:49] | tehpola: | near as in next version or two, I guess |
| [04:19:53] | wagnerrp: | this is a dedicated backend, and the music is stored on a separate frontend? |
| [04:19:56] | tehpola: | I know the UPnP is pretty recent |
| [04:20:04] | tehpola: | no, the music is on the backend |
| [04:20:12] | Beirdo: | Loto: I know. I'll deal :) |
| [04:20:16] | wagnerrp: | then there shouldnt be any problem |
| [04:20:25] | wagnerrp: | just set up mythmusic on the backend |
| [04:20:39] | wagnerrp: | and give it the proper path to the music |
| [04:20:59] | wagnerrp: | the for better or worse, the upnp server does not use the music and video tables in the database |
| [04:21:12] | wagnerrp: | it just finds the directories that content is stored in, on that local machine |
| [04:21:16] | wagnerrp: | and serves its own list |
| [04:21:48] | wagnerrp: | it updates that list every half hour, or if you send the proper call to force a refresh |
| [04:21:53] | Beirdo: | heh |
| [04:21:57] | Beirdo: | that seems odd |
| [04:22:12] | tehpola: | ok, so I have a backend with the songs, and a PS3 I want to play the music on via UPnP, so that will work if I set up mythmusic on the backend? |
| [04:22:12] | Beirdo: | more cruft from a while back? |
| [04:22:26] | wagnerrp: | Beirdo: more, it was a very simple implementation |
| [04:22:39] | wagnerrp: | and previously it didnt matter, since none of that content was streamable anyway |
| [04:22:45] | Beirdo: | heh |
| [04:22:48] | wagnerrp: | any frontend that wanted to use it had to have it locally mounted anyway |
| [04:22:49] | Beirdo: | fair enough |
| [04:23:11] | wagnerrp: | so its technically still not an issue with mythmusic |
| [04:23:23] | wagnerrp: | but streaming of mythvideo content is broken |

| [04:26:46] | Beirdo: | dang, there are a lot of ~quassel users |
| [04:26:53] | tehpola: | maybe it was that scanning delay |
| [04:27:10] | wagnerrp: | it shouldnt take more than a couple seconds to scan |
| [04:27:14] | wagnerrp: | its just building a list of file names |
| [04:27:22] | wagnerrp: | it does no tag parsing |
| [04:27:46] | tehpola: | well, its running on a beagleboard (my backend), so I wouldn't be surprised if it took a little while longer |
| [04:28:29] | wagnerrp: | why? |
| [04:28:47] | tehpola: | its just not a very powerful system |
| [04:29:53] | wagnerrp: | anyway, a directory listing should be more disk intensive than CPU |
| [04:30:24] | Beirdo: | unless you have an excessive number of files in a single directory |
| [04:30:49] | Beirdo: | ext2/3 is HORRIBLE with > 50k or so files in a directory |
| [04:30:59] | tehpola: | no, they're organized |
| [04:31:07] | Beirdo: | then it should be fine :) |
| [04:31:20] | tehpola: | it was probably just my mistake then, its working now anyways, so I don't really care anymore until it stops :) |

| [06:13:21] | jst_: | Yeah... |
| [06:13:38] | wagnerrp: | meaning those are the clear channels pumped to the DTAs that comcast is using to drop analog cable |
| [06:13:42] | jst_: | This would be a no-brainer if the HD-PVR weren't $200. |
| [06:13:57] | wagnerrp: | and will disappear as soon as comcast in your area turns on privacy mode |
| [06:14:25] | wagnerrp: | which they are doing with a vengeance ever since they got their FCC waiver to use it |
| [06:15:17] | jst_: | Screw Comcast... I don't need the 250 GB quota, and I don't need DTA nonsense from a cable company. I'll pay extra and go with FiOS. |
| [06:15:47] | wagnerrp: | what do you do that you hit the 250GB quota? |
| [06:16:43] | wagnerrp: | i guess its a lot easier to manage with that much upload |
| [06:16:57] | wagnerrp: | i would probably use a lot more if i werent limited to 768kb up |
| [06:17:30] | jst_: | I'm not sure what my usage is... might be considerably less than 250 GB... but, for example, I had to download Battlefield: Bad Company 2 twice the other day... that's like 10 GB right there. |

| [06:46:29] | kormoc: | wagnerrp: only on error screens afaik |
| [06:48:24] | wagnerrp: | was just wondering about this.... http://www.mythtvtalk.com/forum/installation- . . . again-3.html |
| [06:48:29] | Gumby: | hi all. mythweb is giving me this error when I try and search the EPG for a show "Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 71 bytes) in /usr/share/mythtv/mythweb/modules/tv/classes/Program.php on line 295" I assume this means I need to increase the memory limit but I am unsure where/what. Can anyone help? |
| [06:50:37] | kormoc: | wagnerrp: yeah, I donno where he's seeing that |
| [06:50:52] | wagnerrp: | kormoc: a grep for '0.23' turns up nothing |
| [06:51:01] | kormoc: | Gumby: it's in your php.ini file, and after you change it, you'll need to restart apache |
| [06:51:11] | wagnerrp: | in any of the php or pl files |
| [06:51:27] | kormoc: | wagnerrp: yeah... I really donno |
| [06:52:36] | Gumby: | kormoc: thanks. do you have any suggestion what a good # to set it to would be? |
| [06:52:53] | wagnerrp: | if 64MB is insufficient, try 96 or 128 |
| [06:53:10] | wagnerrp: | just how many recordings do you have that its overflowing? |
| [06:53:26] | kormoc: | he's searching |
| [06:53:34] | kormoc: | so it could just be a ton of shows matching |
| [06:53:41] | kormoc: | or just that many line ups/sources |
| [06:53:56] | kormoc: | Gumby: I'd just double until it works |
| [06:54:02] | Gumby: | wagnerrp: it was set to only 16MB |
| [06:54:03] | Gumby: | hehe |
| [06:54:18] | wagnerrp: | then i guess mythweb is resetting the limit internally |
| [06:54:23] | kormoc: | we're not |
| [06:54:29] | kormoc: | although, we likely should |
| [06:54:32] | wagnerrp: | well then that makes no sense |
| [06:54:39] | wagnerrp: | its set to 64MB somewhere |
| [06:54:42] | kormoc: | Gumby: your error message shows 64 megs |
| [06:54:48] | Gumby: | hrm |
| [06:54:53] | kormoc: | Gumby: there might be more then one limit in the php.ini file |
| [06:55:03] | Gumby: | I'll look again. |
| [06:55:16] | kormoc: | wagnerrp: we'll over ride the run time limitor, but we don't touch memory (yet) |
| [06:55:34] | Gumby: | memory_limit = 32M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (16MB) |
| [06:55:43] | kormoc: | weird... |
| [06:55:51] | Gumby: | I did a search for 64 and found nothing relevant |
| [06:56:00] | Gumby: | I think I have come across this before... |

| [06:57:38] | wagnerrp: | (sorta) |
| [06:57:52] | kormoc: | well, it's just a example apache conf file, not really mythweb percey |
| [06:58:02] | wagnerrp: | close enough |
| [06:58:16] | wagnerrp: | unless the user decides to go off and configure apache on their own, it should be set up properly |

| [10:25:07] | Pulse-R: | the first part of altivec.h include checks the cpu flag is set to __ALTIVEC__ and not __VEC__ – this is where it falls over, and says to use -maltivec instead of -altivec. |

| [12:28:20] | fr3ak: | Hi all, does anybody have any tips on setting up the BGT3510 from blackgold.tv ? I'm at the capture card setup section and don't know what option to select |
| [12:28:40] | justinh: | it's probably a DVB tuner. is it? |
| [12:28:54] | justinh: | i.e. a digital TV tuner ? |
| [12:29:39] | fr3ak: | yep dual DVB-T |
| [12:29:56] | fr3ak: | plus dual analogue and dual SVHS |
| [12:30:04] | justinh: | hmm not many dual dvb-t tuners are supported in linux |
| [12:30:19] | fr3ak: | It sasy on their weebsite that it is supported |
| [12:30:21] | fr3ak: | in linux |
| [12:30:37] | fr3ak: | they just don't have any forums or anything that i can see |
| [12:30:45] | justinh: | yeah but in proper linux kernels or by using their own junk driver? |
| [12:30:55] | justinh: | PCIe or just PCI? |
| [12:31:34] | fr3ak: | PCIe |
| [12:31:43] | justinh: | probably not then |
| [12:32:03] | fr3ak: | yeah i don't know about the driver, can't find anything but a Windoze driver |
| [12:32:15] | justinh: | the linuxtv wiki says the BGT3540 isn't supported |
| [12:32:30] | fr3ak: | i think tahts a satellite card |
| [12:32:49] | fr3ak: | Operating System Support |
| [12:32:49] | fr3ak: | Designed to operate with: |
| [12:32:49] | fr3ak: | 32 and 64 bit Vista Ultimate/Premium/Basic/Business/Enterprise |
| [12:32:49] | fr3ak: | 32 and 64 bit Windows XP Home/Pro/Media Centre Edition |
| [12:32:49] | fr3ak: | OEM Option* 32\64 bit Linux |
| [12:33:18] | fr3ak: | yeah it could be there are no drivers |
| [12:33:46] | fr3ak: | damnit, shoulda thought of that before, guess i can use my HVR1300 instad that probably works |
| [12:34:13] | justinh: | heh from a quick google search it seems people even have trouble making that card work in windows |
| [12:34:50] | fr3ak: | nah works perfectly in W7 |
| [12:34:54] | justinh: | your only hope would be to download & compile module code from linuxtv.org's Hg repository |
| [12:35:09] | justinh: | that's assuming there's even preliminary support there |
| [12:35:18] | fr3ak: | ok i guess i need to find out what chips are on it then |
| [12:35:29] | justinh: | unless you're willing to set out helping to get support in the kernel for it |
| [12:35:49] | justinh: | ow, it's an expensive card too |
| [12:36:05] | fr3ak: | reasonable yeah |
| [12:36:24] | fr3ak: | i wanted the option of having 1 DVB-T and 1 Analogue at the same time |
| [12:36:31] | fr3ak: | couldn't see any others that did that |
| [12:36:47] | justinh: | I heard the problem with PCIe devices it's often not the tuner chipset they have issues with.. it's more often the bridge devices used on the cards IIRC |
| [12:36:55] | fr3ak: | ahah ok |
| [12:37:12] | fr3ak: | its pretty nice, it does on board encoding as well |
| [12:37:44] | fr3ak: | though i just found out it only does 576P via the component in |
| [12:38:01] | fr3ak: | probably because the component in is actually an adaptor cable via S-Video |
| [12:38:35] | fr3ak: | was hoping to cap Sky-HD |
| [12:38:55] | justinh: | nah they're disabling the component output on their STBs |
| [12:39:04] | justinh: | if you mean the Murdoch owned Sky |
| [12:39:22] | fr3ak: | Yeah but if you still have a box that has it it works |
| [12:39:34] | fr3ak: | i have friends with HD-PVRs and they cap no problem |
| [12:39:48] | justinh: | that'd be the way to go |
| [12:40:05] | justinh: | for me HD just isn't worth the headache or expense |
| [12:40:16] | fr3ak: | fuinny thing is those boxes with component out even a few years old are getting more expensive than newer boxes :) |

| [12:40:37] | justinh: | you can buy HDMI to component converters though |
| [12:40:48] | fr3ak: | ... how would that work? |
| [12:40:49] | justinh: | they're only a ocuple of hundred dollars or so.. maybe less |
| [12:41:08] | fr3ak: | the encryption algorithm can be changed |
| [12:41:08] | justinh: | they convert HDMI to component video allowing you to grab HDMI outputs |
| [12:41:30] | justinh: | and HDCP magically doesn't figure in the equation ;-) |

| [12:41:46] | fr3ak: | if you say so :) |
| [12:42:05] | justinh: | they basically work around HDCP by claiming to be a device they're not |
| [12:42:26] | fr3ak: | what i've heard is those boxes have hard-coded decryption algorithms and as soon as it gets changed they will be shit out of luck |
| [12:42:43] | justinh: | the firmware can be changed AFAIK |
| [12:42:47] | fr3ak: | but yeah that'd be nice |
| [12:42:50] | justinh: | and watch your language please |
| [12:43:03] | AndyCap: | capturing decompressed video and reencoding it is sub-optimal though. |
| [12:43:13] | justinh: | isn't it always? |
| [12:44:08] | justinh: | without really nasty, verging on illegal hackery it's the only way to get Sky HD into a non-Sky DVR |
| [12:44:47] | justinh: | gotta love Sky for being so closed :D |
| [12:44:51] | AndyCap: | ah, yes, no cam, no joy |
| [12:45:00] | justinh: | which is why I'd rather burn down my house than get Sky |
| [12:45:02] | AndyCap: | stupid NDS |
| [12:45:12] | justinh: | hey it's a great racket |
| [12:45:27] | justinh: | don't you wish you'd thought of it though? ;-) |
| [12:45:28] | AndyCap: | and they've stated they're not interested in CI+ either, not that CI+ would help mythtv. |
| [12:45:38] | fr3ak: | ok anyway i guess im outta luck with mythtv, will have to persevere with W7 |
| [12:45:43] | fr3ak: | have a nice day people |
| [12:45:43] | AndyCap: | justinh: nah, I prefer to be liked |

| [15:50:18] | j-rod: | pardon, but wtf is the point of cygwin if you're already running linux? |

| [16:00:01] | Beirdo: | of course. |

| [16:05:23] | j-rod: | yeah, its fantastic having him back in town, even if he's a shadow of his former self |

| [17:50:21] | stevieman: | is there a way to setup a playlist in .22 for videos? I have a bunch of 2 min shows that I'd like to string together for my son in 15–20 min blocks |
| [17:50:37] | wagnerrp: | not exactly |
| [17:51:03] | wagnerrp: | however you can specify a 'child video', which will play after the current video |
| [17:51:11] | stevieman: | that works |
| [17:51:11] | wagnerrp: | and you can play all content in a folder |
| [17:51:30] | stevieman: | no I like the child video, can I sent a child of a child? |
| [17:51:55] | wagnerrp: | you can string them out however long you want |
| [17:52:38] | wagnerrp: | however note that there is no way to prematurely exit this chain |
| [17:52:47] | stevieman: | nice, now you got me thinking that sub-dir might be better, less chance of a did we already watch this episode? |
| [17:52:56] | wagnerrp: | it will play every file in the chan before exiting |
| [17:53:09] | stevieman: | Oh that's not going to work at all |
| [17:53:13] | wagnerrp: | and there is currently no way of breaking out of it, save killing the frontend |
| [17:53:51] | stevieman: | guess I'll have to keep using xbox media centre :( |
| [17:54:01] | mag0o: | (or lots of the exit keypresses, which is what i do) |
| [17:54:17] | wagnerrp: | mag0o: well you have to exit out of every single video |
| [17:54:30] | wagnerrp: | you still have to pass through each one before it will drop back to the frontend |
| [17:54:33] | mag0o: | yeah |
| [17:54:49] | wagnerrp: | there is a patch on trac that will exit the chain if you exit the video less than 10 seconds in |
| [17:55:13] | wagnerrp: | will likely get added to trunk post-branch, and possibly backported to 0.23 |
| [17:55:53] | stevieman: | there should be a play-list feature to add videos to which could be saved or not. :) |
| [17:56:18] | iamlindoro: | And we should all get ponies, and pretty girls |
| [17:56:23] | iamlindoro: | anyway, probably won't backport |
| [17:56:27] | stevieman: | is there a spot where I can make such a request? |
| [17:56:36] | wagnerrp: | there is a feature request page on the wiki |
| [17:56:38] | stevieman: | well yes you should get all the ponies and pretty girls |
| [17:57:25] | wagnerrp: | however i wouldnt expect any significant changes in mythvideo until a decision gets made about the video/recording merge |
| [17:58:12] | stevieman: | well it can't be considered if I don't put it out there. |
| [17:58:31] | wagnerrp: | i imagine it has already been considered |
| [17:58:36] | iamlindoro: | It has |
| [17:58:54] | iamlindoro: | It'll get done when it's feasible, it's definitely not that none of us has ever thought of having video playlists |
| [18:01:07] | stevieman: | So I shouldn't bother submitting a request? |
| [18:01:38] | wagnerrp: | go ahead and put it on the wishlist if you want, it just wont make much difference |
| [18:01:46] | stevieman: | ok |
| [18:02:35] | stevieman: | on a completly different topic, is there a specific time that mythtranscode runs by default? ie at 1am? |
| [18:03:02] | wagnerrp: | you *can* limit mythjobqueue to a certain time range, but no |
| [18:03:14] | wagnerrp: | the default is within one minute after it hits the queue |
| [18:03:39] | stevieman: | oh nuts, that means my queue isn't working |
| [18:03:59] | stevieman: | or mythtranscode isn't running automatically |

| [18:43:39] | devinheitmueller: | wagnerrp: well, that is more likely to occur if you have something like ClearQAM and the channel gets moved. |
| [18:43:45] | iamlindoro: | In liveTV you can see the tuning status, but for scheduled recordings, there is no logged information regarding lock- at least, not in the default log level |
| [18:43:53] | devinheitmueller: | Wow. |
| [18:43:57] | wagnerrp: | devinheitmueller: right... thats the only time ive had that sort of problem |
| [18:44:17] | devinheitmueller: | iamlindoro: yeah, I knew about the stats being shown during live tv. |
| [18:44:37] | devinheitmueller: | Missing stuff like that in the log though makes me wonder how people *ever* figure out why their program didn't get recorded. |
| [18:44:48] | iamlindoro: | devinheitmueller: FWIW there might be at some deeper level of verbosity, so I can't rule out that it exists altogether |

| [18:47:05] | devinheitmueller: | I'll quit my complaining though; I as well as anyone know that patches speak louder than words. |
| [18:47:18] | devinheitmueller: | Unfortunately, "-v" is pretty useless after the fact. |
| [18:47:28] | devinheitmueller: | This largely comes down to what should be in the log "by default". |
| [18:47:40] | Dibblah: | Uhm... PIDs which aren't in the stream are logged by default. |
| [18:48:12] | devinheitmueller: | Dibblah: yes, that is good. I'm saying it should *also* log the case where it never receives a tuner lock in the first place. |

| [18:49:28] | devinheitmueller: | An error about not being able to find the PID could be because the PIDs got moved, or it could be because there was no tuning lock achieved. And knowing *which* of those problems you had is a very valuable piece of information. |

| [19:22:55] | squidly: | with mythtv? |
| [19:23:00] | wagnerrp: | sorta |
| [19:23:29] | iamlindoro: | devinheitmueller is just mad because I drowned him that one time |
| [19:23:34] | wagnerrp: | do understand that it is a block server, rather than a remote file system like NFS |
| [19:23:43] | squidly: | ahh okies |
| [19:23:47] | wagnerrp: | you still have to format the block device provided by iscsi |
| [19:23:55] | squidly: | wagnerrp: yea I know. |
| [19:24:03] | Cipher42_: | anyone ever seen that error? |
| [19:24:03] | wagnerrp: | and as such, you can generally only use it on one machine at a time |
| [19:24:14] | squidly: | depending on the fs.. |
| [19:24:32] | wagnerrp: | sure... you can use some obscure clustered file system |
| [19:24:45] | squidly: | we are using it at my work to share out a shared dir to mulitple systems.. |
| [19:24:50] | squidly: | ocfs2 is pretty good ;) |

| [19:26:40] | wagnerrp: | squidly: not likely, because of the above issues |
| [19:26:57] | squidly: | wagnerrp: yea.. but if it's mounted readonly i dont think it will be an issue |
| [19:27:09] | squidly: | on the frontends |

| [19:27:51] | wagnerrp: | read-only should work |

| [19:28:21] | squidly: | really |
| [19:28:23] | wagnerrp: | depends on the FS i suppose |
| [19:28:24] | squidly: | wow that is nuts |
| [19:28:53] | wagnerrp: | i came across something of that sort looking into it a year or so ago |
| [19:29:10] | squidly: | yea my new backend is coming next week.. and I was thinking of how to make user of it and abuse the heck out of my new box |
| [19:29:19] | squidly: | wagnerrp: wow.. |
| [19:29:31] | wagnerrp: | and that if you have multiple machines hitting the same iscsi share, you need to forcefully make the iscsi share read only |
| [19:29:39] | wagnerrp: | rather than relying on the filesystem to do it |
| [19:29:51] | squidly: | on the target side..yea |
| [19:30:16] | squidly: | here at work we are using ocfs2 for the share |
| [19:31:39] | squidly: | yea like i said though I'm mostly looking for a way to really abuse my new server |
| [19:31:40] | wagnerrp: | anyway, im currently running iscsi for my diskless machines |
| [19:31:46] | squidly: | wagnerrp: really/ nice |

| [19:32:17] | iamlindoro: | Maybe I'll sit at my desk and get loaded |
| [19:32:28] | squidly: | iamlindoro: sounds like a plan to me ;) |
| [19:32:59] | squidly: | wagnerrp: do you have your frontend nic's pull the iscsi info? |
| [19:33:02] | squidly: | or how do you do that. |
| [19:34:12] | wagnerrp: | squidly: i have PXE pull a custom linux kernel |
| [19:34:25] | wagnerrp: | with an embedded initrd that handles mounting of the iscsi disk prior to boot |

| [21:05:07] | iamlindoro: | Anyhoo, Film is a great medium to transfer to blu-ray, assuming the original masters are in good shape, and if you pay for a decent transfer |
| [21:05:08] | oobe: | lol |
| [21:05:31] | oobe: | yea i didnt relise that iamlindoro i thought it would be like upscaling |
| [21:05:37] | iamlindoro: | And most film transfers are to 2K vertical resolution if the studio is cheap, 4K if they spend any money/time |
| [21:05:43] | AndyCap: | kormoc: silver and filters? |
| [21:05:59] | wagnerrp: | the only problem becomes digital special effects, which are very expensive to do at high resolutions |
| [21:06:28] | AndyCap: | iamlindoro: iirc. 4K and 2K are width. |
| [21:06:35] | iamlindoro: | Since the effects are also on film, and they're matte paintings + miniatures for Enemy mine, there's nothing to do |
| [21:06:36] | wagnerrp: | 2K vertical? i thought those were generally measuring width |
| [21:06:47] | wagnerrp: | what AndyCap said... |
| [21:07:08] | iamlindoro: | yes, vertical, mistyped |
| [21:07:21] | AndyCap: | horizontal... |

| [22:00:23] | Beirdo: | how's this for eliminating need... you don't like it, don't install it :) |
| [22:01:01] | Beirdo: | can they now elimate our collective need to scream and tear our remaining hair out? |
| [22:01:02] | wagnerrp: | iamlindoro: he had to do it, you were going to take away external players... |
| [22:01:22] | iamlindoro: | heh |
| [22:01:40] | iamlindoro: | wagnerrp: So he figured why not get a jump on it? |
| [22:01:59] | Beirdo: | heh, there ya go |
| [22:02:01] | iamlindoro: | When we remove external players, I need to make sure to introduce some other massive change at that same time so that undoing the changeset is impossible |
| [22:02:15] | Beirdo: | now you have a good excuse for removing it... he already provided the replacement :) |
| [22:02:18] | Beirdo: | heheh |

| [22:02:22] | iamlindoro: | haa |
| [22:02:32] | wagnerrp: | yeah, well.. he did right an 1800 line bash script, his logic is already in question |
| [22:02:48] | Beirdo: | hope he enjoys maintaining that monstrosity |
| [22:03:10] | sphery: | iamlindoro: and obfuscate the video info and file paths in the db |
| [22:03:27] | sphery: | Beirdo: Maintain? What's that mean? |
| [22:03:32] | Beirdo: | hehe |
| [22:03:39] | iamlindoro: | Guess it could have unforseen positive consequences |
| [22:03:45] | sphery: | if it works, it works... What more is there? |
| [22:03:45] | iamlindoro: | maybe someone would team mplayer to speak myth:// |
| [22:03:49] | iamlindoro: | er teach |
| [22:03:57] | Beirdo: | that would be cool, actually |
| [22:04:04] | sphery: | it will work the same for eternity (without all those stupid devs committing changes to it, of course) |
| [22:04:17] | wagnerrp: | Beirdo: it probably wouldnt even be that hard |
| [22:04:27] | Beirdo: | probably not, true |
| [22:04:29] | sphery: | iamlindoro: better--just have xbmc speak myth:// |
| [22:04:35] | Beirdo: | or both :) |
| [22:04:40] | iamlindoro: | sphery: Heh, it actually already does |
| [22:04:44] | iamlindoro: | well, Mythlish, anyway |
| [22:04:58] | Beirdo: | it speaks mith:// ? |
| [22:04:59] | sphery: | yeah, it speaks myth:// like I speak Latin |
| [22:05:00] | iamlindoro: | it speaks "Hey, I speak protocol 8, wait, no I don't" myth:// |
| [22:05:11] | wagnerrp: | Beirdo: i mean the code to do so in the python bindings is only ~250 lines |
| [22:05:35] | Beirdo: | I'm not a python-head though, but I'm sure I could figure it out fast enough |
| [22:05:36] | sphery: | wagnerrp: that's an unfair comparison because the python bindings are python |
| [22:05:37] | iamlindoro: | Beirdo: yeah-- they use libcmyth, which is basically unmaintained, and it lies about its protocol version to find out what version of the protoco to pretend it actually speaks |
| [22:05:40] | iamlindoro: | which it doesn't |
| [22:05:47] | wagnerrp: | and a lot of that is comments, and other stuff that could otherwise be stripped out |
| [22:06:01] | sphery: | so it's like "import mythproto;" followed by 249 lines of "just to make it look a bit harder" |
| [22:06:28] | wagnerrp: | sphery, Beirdo: i only mention that because the python socket stuff is little more than a wrapper around the C socket libraries |
| [22:06:32] | iamlindoro: | Beirdo: Admittedly it's not XBMC's fault libcmyth is a bastard |
| [22:06:41] | Beirdo: | wagnerrp: gool |
| [22:06:49] | Beirdo: | cool even |
| [22:07:00] | sphery: | gool = good cool |
| [22:07:01] | iamlindoro: | maybe they'll move to something based on wagnerrp's bindings now that they're so robust |
| [22:07:02] | Beirdo: | iamlindoro: heh, they just perpetuate the cmyth |
| [22:07:19] | wagnerrp: | i wouldnt necessarily call them robust... |

| [22:07:23] | wagnerrp: | getting there |
| [22:07:31] | iamlindoro: | I'm not sure what their plan is for their PVR frontend expansion-- to speak Myth proto natively, to use a lib, to use bindings... no idea |
| [22:07:42] | AndyCap: | iamlindoro: reimplement it in perl |
| [22:07:58] | iamlindoro: | AndyCap: In that case, might as well just slap a few hundred lines together and have a whole PVR ;) |
| [22:08:02] | Beirdo: | AndyCap: nah, I'm sure that will be me, kormoc, xris :) |
| [22:08:03] | sphery: | iamlindoro: going to the python bindings wouldn't work, after all, they check for the proper version of the bindings, protocols, db schema's, etc... |
| [22:08:13] | sphery: | and xbmc can't be bothered with that kind of thing |
| [22:08:18] | wagnerrp: | im still going back and finding stuff 'man, whoever wrote that didnt know what they were doing... wait, i wrote that' |
| [22:08:26] | sphery: | after all, if it's proto 8 or better, it should just work |
| [22:08:28] | Beirdo: | the perl bindings do definitely need more work |
| [22:08:40] | iamlindoro: | boy howdy |
| [22:09:03] | sphery: | yes, the perl bindings are a /very/ thin coat of mother-of-pearl on a very big plastic bead |
| [22:11:37] | Beirdo: | now now :) |
| [22:11:50] | Beirdo: | that plastic bead outdates most of us :) |
| [22:12:14] | sphery: | true... they were a good start, but could stand a good reworking like the python bindings |
| [22:12:17] | wagnerrp: | didnt you say the perl bindings were basically runoff from nuvexport? |
| [22:12:23] | sphery: | yeah |
| [22:12:32] | wagnerrp: | or was that just parts that got migrated |
| [22:12:53] | Beirdo: | not completely migrated :) |
| [22:12:54] | sphery: | think it was just taking the tons of code in nuvexport and putting it into a reusable lib |
| [22:13:06] | Beirdo: | the matching code is STILL in nuvexport's directory |
| [22:13:13] | sphery: | yeah |
| [22:13:15] | wagnerrp: | and then... forgetting to have nuvexport use them? |
| [22:13:17] | Beirdo: | but hasn't been removed/cleaned out |
| [22:13:31] | Beirdo: | Pretty sure it's using the bindings... |
| [22:13:39] | sphery: | wonder how long until we have nuvexport.py |
| [22:13:40] | Beirdo: | anyways, after 0.23, I intend to fix that |
| [22:13:47] | Beirdo: | in Perl. |
| [22:13:48] | Beirdo: | :) |
| [22:14:05] | Beirdo: | or I could drive xris insane and do it in Ruby |
| [22:14:08] | sphery: | yeah, actually, if you get around to working on /cleaning up the perl bindings, that's a wonderful thing |
| [22:14:34] | wagnerrp: | sphery: hey now, stop piling stuff up on me.... im already supposed to write some python implementation of the mythui api |
| [22:14:35] | Beirdo: | yeah, that's my intention |
| [22:14:36] | AndyCap: | erlang! |
| [22:14:44] | Beirdo: | that and support or vaapi |

| [22:22:54] | iamlindoro: | the recorder error means "I tried to record from your device but it said no, for some reason" |

| [23:41:39] | Wicked: | the closest option i want is "record at any time on any channel" but my custom rule only records on sat at a specific time |
| [23:42:02] | Wicked: | other then that i only see "record one showing of this every day or week" |
| [23:42:30] | Wicked: | sometimes cops has 2 new episodes back to back |
