[00:04:09] | mattwj2002: | anyone have a recommendation for a MCE Remote ? |
[00:04:50] | J-e-f-f-A: | mattwj2002: What do you mean? If you mean search terms, search for "RC6 MICROSOFT REMOTE" on fleabay... should filter out most of the junk ones. |
[00:05:40] | mattwj2002: | what is rc6? |
[00:06:19] | J-e-f-f-A: | mattwj2002: it's the IR protocol it uses. But using that in the search term eliminates many of the 'junk' 'aftermarket' ones that are calling themselves MCE remotes. |
[00:06:42] | mattwj2002: | thanks |
[00:06:43] | mattwj2002: | :) |
[00:06:58] | J-e-f-f-A: | mattwj2002: $19.99 – http://cgi.ebay.com/Dell-Microsoft-Windows-Me . . . em335775e36d |
[00:08:36] | mattwj2002: | O_O |
[00:08:44] | mattwj2002: | that isn't English |

[00:09:12] | J-e-f-f-A: | it isn't? |
[00:09:16] | mattwj2002: | nope |
[00:09:59] | J-e-f-f-A: | oh, the remote itself isn't ... DOH! sorry, didn't see that!.... But now you know what you're looking for... |
[00:10:02] | mattwj2002: | I was thinking more of something like this http://amzn.com/B00224ZDFY |
[00:10:17] | mattwj2002: | I want something with a few extra buttons on it |
[00:10:57] | mattwj2002: | maybe that isn't necessary |

[00:12:08] | J-e-f-f-A: | mattwj2002: That looks like a MCE remote with a 'mouse pad' added... Not sure how good the Linux support is for it though, you'd have to google. |
[00:12:35] | mattwj2002: | okay good to know |
[00:13:45] | J-e-f-f-A: | mattwj2002: here's an example of one to say away from: http://www.amazon.com/Wireless-USB-Remote-Con . . . 8&sr=1-4 |
[00:14:31] | mattwj2002: | ok |
[00:15:22] | J-e-f-f-A: | mattwj2002: It 'looks' nice, but the 4-way pad is actually a 16-direction pad, better for a mouse than up/down/left/right. |
[00:16:11] | fugdnscerd: | have you guys seen the new tivo remotes? |
[00:16:26] | mattwj2002: | I should just order what I all ready have |

[00:17:28] | mattwj2002: | oh yeah that say rc 6 on that back |
[00:18:08] | slickrick: | question about jamu. my interactive mode no longer works, jamu simply doesn't got to interactive mode when i run it with switches -Mi |
[00:19:03] | RDV_Linux: | slickrick: There is a chance that you do not have any videos that do NOT have reference numbers |
[00:19:10] | J-e-f-f-A: | mattwj2002: If you want a few spares, here's a lot of 5 for $23.50 + 4.98 shipping: http://cgi.ebay.com/5-Lot-DELL-RC6-REMOTE-Con . . . em53dd1972e3 |
[00:19:52] | slickrick: | RDV_Linux: hi RDV Linux ... can you elaborate? |
[00:20:09] | J-e-f-f-A: | mattwj2002: The only 'beef' I have with these is that all the keys *except* the number keys are backlit... |

[00:20:37] | mattwj2002: | :) |
[00:21:13] | slickrick: | RDV_Linux: i renamed all my files from the imdb id (ttXXXXXXXX) to the movie name (SOME_MOVIE.iso) and for the most part it worked. some obvious movies don't work, is there a way I can figure out the right name for the file using themoviedb.org api? |
[00:21:19] | RDV_Linux: | slickrick: You should be using the -MI option (capital 'I'). Interactive mode only focuses on videos that do not have refernence numbers (IMDB, TMDB or TVDB) |
[00:22:45] | mattwj2002: | what if I have a girl over and she wants to change the channel all she has to do is grab another remote O_O |
[00:22:52] | slickrick: | RDV_Linux: does this mean where the inetref column is null for that particular movie? |
[00:23:43] | RDV_Linux: | slickrick: The last question you asked there are no specific tools. This would be laborious but you could remove the inetref numbers for those specific movies and then use jamu with the -MI option. |

[00:26:02] | J-e-f-f-A: | slickrick, RDV_Linux – or within mythfrontend, reset the metadata on those movies with "I" -> "Metadata Options" -> "Reset Metadata" then run jamu again... |
[00:26:34] | slickrick: | RDV_Linux: some of my videos show null for the inetref, but still no interactive mode. |
[00:26:41] | J-e-f-f-A: | ... but if you have a lot of them, that's a pin in the bleep... |
[00:26:50] | J-e-f-f-A: | pain even... hehehe |
[00:26:50] | slickrick: | J-e-f-f-A: cool, trying that. |
[00:27:18] | RDV_Linux: | J-e-f-f-A: If you use Mythvideo to clear the metadata then you might as well hit the 'w' option and let MythVideo get the metadata. In the end that would be faster. |
[00:27:41] | J-e-f-f-A: | RDV_Linux: Good point. ;-) slickrick ^^^ |
[00:28:39] | J-e-f-f-A: | RDV_Linux: Although I've had cases where "W" didn't work, but Interactive mode did list tons of additional 'possibilities' that at least one of them was right... |
[00:29:04] | RDV_Linux: | slickrick: Experiment to see what works best for you |
[00:30:36] | slickrick: | RDV_Linux: for sure. i am trying out both suggestions to see what'll do the trick. thanks for the suggestions. |
[00:30:58] | mattwj2002: | sorry to be a pest |
[00:31:17] | mattwj2002: | would a remote like this work? |

[00:32:34] | russell5: | i have almost that same one except the colored buttons on bottem |
[00:32:50] | mattwj2002: | and it works? |
[00:33:02] | slickrick: | RDV_Linux: the 'w' key works great, but something seems to be wrong on my system when it gets the coverart. |
[00:33:02] | J-e-f-f-A: | mattwj2002: That looks like a 'standard' MCE remote. |
[00:33:11] | russell5: | yeah but was kinda a pain to get it to work. and mine is only has reciver no trnasmitter |
[00:33:28] | RDV_Linux: | slickrick: elaborate |
[00:33:31] | slickrick: | RDV_Linux: It seems to download but then I get Coverart download finished: Error: file error 'No such file or directory' for file /mnt/coverart/0362478_coverart.jpg 1 |
[00:33:50] | iamlindoro: | /mnt/coverart doesn't exist, or you don't have permissions to it |
[00:33:56] | J-e-f-f-A: | ^^ yep |
[00:33:57] | slickrick: | i know my user has r/w perms and it exists. |
[00:34:09] | slickrick: | i am double checking tho. |
[00:34:19] | mattwj2002: | okay maybe I should get a rc6 remote instead |
[00:34:31] | mattwj2002: | they are so easy |
[00:34:38] | mattwj2002: | I am going to use it for boxee too |
[00:34:56] | russell5: | yeha i had to edit the lirc code to get it to work. i found a great guide for it but still kinda sucked |
[00:35:19] | J-e-f-f-A: | mattwj2002: that one is an rc6 remote – looks like it comes with a receiver too. |
[00:36:02] | mattwj2002: | yeah but I want something plug and play |
[00:37:44] | J-e-f-f-A: | mattwj2002: Well, make sure you get the receiver with it too then. That's what makes it 'basically' plug & play. (You'll still need to put the MCEUSB lirc files in place...) |
[00:38:41] | Beirdo: | mmm, plug n pray |
[00:39:27] | mattwj2002: | :P |
[00:39:32] | J-e-f-f-A: | Beirdo: Yeah, the only thing I've ever known to be 'true' plug & Play was the Amiga – and they called it "Autoconfig" ;-) |
[00:39:49] | slickrick: | what command does it run to actually get the artwork? I'd like to run it from the command line to see what happens. |
[00:40:05] | iamlindoro: | No external process gets artwork |
[00:40:06] | slickrick: | tmdb.pl -P and -D work fine. |
[00:40:33] | RDV_Linux: | slickrick: That does not download anything |

[00:41:59] | iamlindoro: | again, no external process does grabbing |

[00:43:20] | slickrick: | then i am stumped. the user running mythtv has r/w to the target but i get "coverart download finished: error: file error no such file or dir" |
[00:45:34] | iamlindoro: | the portion of the error message that reads "error: file error no such file or dir" doesn't even come from Myth, it comes from Qt... and it really really means that the process is being prohibited from writing that dir |
[00:45:52] | iamlindoro: | I would try setting the coverart dir to the home dir of the frontend user |
[00:46:20] | slickrick: | iamlindoro: understood. i will go double check the paths and rights. thx. |
[00:46:34] | iamlindoro: | np, good luck |
[00:49:51] | slickrick: | iamlindoro: okay ... that's what it was. my bad. |
[00:50:06] | iamlindoro: | no worries, glad you found it |
[00:50:50] | slickrick: | love the mythvideo and that 'w' key. awesome. |
[00:56:16] | slickrick: | when entering the unique id through the frontend, where can i get the unique id? can i use the imdb number? |

[01:07:11] | Beirdo: | trying to use nuvexport (finally) on my resurrected recordings.... |
[01:07:24] | Beirdo: | ffmpeg version SVN-rUNKNOWN |
[01:07:33] | Beirdo: | way to go, ubuntu, you freaks |
[01:08:29] | Beirdo: | granted it IS 8.04.4 |
[01:08:31] | Beirdo: | but still |
[01:14:36] | sphery: | heh, version of SVN r UNKNOWN |
[01:19:01] | Beirdo: | of course nuvexport belches on that, looking for >= 0.5 |
[01:26:50] | Beirdo: | idiotic |
[01:29:10] | Beirdo: | any ubuntu (newer than hardy) users here right now? |
[01:30:19] | russell5: | me |
[01:30:46] | Beirdo: | which version, and could you let me know the version returned by ffmpeg -version? |

[01:31:31] | russell5: | FFmpeg SVN-r19352–4:0.5+svn20090706–2ubuntu2 but i think i build it form scratch |
[01:31:47] | russell5: | but nuvexport doesnt work for me still with ffmpeg |
[01:32:00] | Beirdo: | ah. OK, that does look like an ubuntu version string |
[01:32:07] | iamlindoro: | That's because since .5 they're cahnged the API |
[01:32:12] | iamlindoro: | er they've |
[01:32:12] | Beirdo: | which version of ubuntu is that? |
[01:32:20] | iamlindoro: | !trout iamlindoro literacy |
[01:32:20] | ** MythLogBot slaps iamlindoro with a literacy trout on behalf of iamlindoro... ** | |
[01:32:31] | russell5: | mythbuntu 9.10 |
[01:32:38] | russell5: | i think lol |
[01:32:48] | Beirdo: | yeah, and ubuntu's built-in version strings are not Scottish |
[01:33:18] | Beirdo: | thanks. OK, well, I'm gonna poke this with a stick for a bit until I can get it to behave, I guess |
[01:33:43] | russell5: | yeha im using custom compiled ffmpeg and nuvexport from trunk and cant get it to work :( |
[01:33:52] | Beirdo: | I have no need to keep this machine running Hardy anyways, I only did that to use xen, and then I realized my domU were all 64bit, and this is on a 32bit machine |
[01:34:03] | iamlindoro: | russell5, nuvexport was last made to conform with ffmpeg when they released .5 last year |
[01:34:17] | iamlindoro: | it's incompatible with command line arguments in versions since |
[01:34:23] | iamlindoro: | so with every update you make it work less :) |
[01:34:38] | iamlindoro: | now why ffmpeg devs change command line arguments like I change clothes is another matter |
[01:34:50] | Beirdo: | heh, but if you can let me know what the problems are, I can try to track it down |
[01:35:19] | Beirdo: | a bug in trac would be useful, or we can try to talk it through on IRC |
[01:35:26] | iamlindoro: | wonder if there's an ffmpeg perl module we can just make nuvexport depend on, then ubuntu can worry about matching that pm and ffmpeg |
[01:35:48] | Beirdo: | after 0.23, I want to start making nuvexport more and more integrated and useful, etc |
[01:35:55] | Beirdo: | without breaking it :) |
[01:36:04] | Beirdo: | possibly |
[01:36:32] | russell5: | well iget this error av_interleaved_write_frame(): Error while opening file |
[01:36:34] | Beirdo: | I kinda want to go use a wiffle-bat on the ffmpeg developers though |
[01:36:59] | Beirdo: | hmmm, that almost sounds like a permissions problem on the output dir |
[01:37:06] | russell5: | i think ive looked into it to and couldnt find anything |
[01:37:44] | russell5: | if i run nuvexport from command line as logged in user i have it writing to that users home folder |

[01:38:34] | Beirdo: | OK, but that does sound suspicious :) |
[01:38:51] | Beirdo: | right now I have borked ffmpeg, so I'll have to wait until I upgrade. |
[01:39:11] | Beirdo: | is 10.4 supposed to be LTS, I wonder? |
[01:39:21] | iamlindoro: | I... think? |
[01:39:35] | Beirdo: | it's at the right place in the cycle for it |
[01:39:39] | iamlindoro: | yep, looks like |
[01:39:43] | iamlindoro: | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS |
[01:40:09] | Beirdo: | I kinda don't feel like upgrading hardy->intrepid->jaunty->karmic->lucid |
[01:40:11] | Beirdo: | hehe |
[01:40:19] | russell5: | but i get this when i do debug. Cannot read log file '/tmp/xvid.4134.log-0.log' for pass-2 encoding: No such file or directory |
[01:40:25] | Beirdo: | I should be able to do hardy->lucid directly |
[01:40:27] | russell5: | but i could of made it worse with all the playing i did |
[01:40:46] | iamlindoro: | Think I've got my MBE on 8.10 |
[01:41:00] | Beirdo: | LTS->LTS should be able to upgrade in one shot |
[01:41:04] | iamlindoro: | I'll probably go to 10.04 when that's out... less of an issue to me because everything myth related is from source |
[01:41:38] | Beirdo: | russell5: hmmm, I don't know what custom stuff you may have done, but for sure, check the perms there too |
[01:42:03] | fugdnscerd: | beirdo: s/10.4/10.04 |
[01:42:03] | russell5: | yeah im not to worried about it now gonna get suspend/resume working first thanks |
[01:42:16] | Beirdo: | and run nuvexport with --debug and run each step (I think that's mentioned on the wiki somewhere) |
[01:42:20] | Beirdo: | K |
[01:42:25] | Beirdo: | fugdnscerd: same thing |
[01:42:38] | Beirdo: | 0s don't matter, it gets the idea across |
[01:42:48] | fugdnscerd: | yea close enough |
[01:43:19] | Beirdo: | my poor machine... get ready to be upgraded. |
[01:43:22] | Beirdo: | sigh |
[01:43:42] | fugdnscerd: | confused me for a sec tho, all .04 release are LTS correct? |
[01:43:45] | Beirdo: | oh screw it, I'll do it release by release |
[01:43:47] | Beirdo: | no |
[01:43:51] | Beirdo: | every 2 years |
[01:44:08] | Beirdo: | 6.06 (which was supposed to be 6.04), then 8.04, then 10.04 |
[01:44:19] | fugdnscerd: | ahh |
[01:45:24] | Beirdo: | and at this point, if you are on 6.06, your only upgrade path is directly to 8.04 |
[01:47:12] | Beirdo: | 1181 upgraded, 147 newly installed, 24 to remove and 1 not upgraded. |
[01:47:12] | Beirdo: | Need to get 875MB of archives. |
[01:47:15] | Beirdo: | ughhh. |
[01:47:15] | fugdnscerd: | most ppl run LTS for a reason tho right? If your upgrading you should go to another LTS no? |
[01:47:20] | Beirdo: | that's just the first one :) |
[01:47:37] | Beirdo: | well, typically, if you chose LTS it was for a reason, yeah |
[01:47:54] | Beirdo: | but in this case, it was just the newest version that had working xen support :) |
[01:48:00] | Beirdo: | which I no longer care about |
[01:48:06] | fugdnscerd: | i understand |
[01:48:47] | Beirdo: | so, in just over an hour, it should be intrepid |
[01:49:07] | Beirdo: | I don't have the guts to jump it straight to lucid tonight :) |
[01:49:19] | Captain_Murdoch: | iamlindoro, you around? |
[01:49:34] | Beirdo: | heya Captain_Murdoch :) |
[01:49:38] | iamlindoro: | Captain_Murdoch, yup |
[01:49:43] | Captain_Murdoch: | hey Beirdo |
[01:51:04] | Captain_Murdoch: | iamlindoro, I'm putting in a simple cache for the findArtworkFile to cut down on the backend queries. there shouldn't be much updating/adding new files while we're in PBB, so I was thinking of like a 15 or 30 second timeout. do you see any issues with something like that? |
[01:51:33] | iamlindoro: | none at all |
[01:52:36] | Captain_Murdoch: | ok. I'm thinking of going with 30 for now, we can bump down easily enough if there are issues, but I think the only thing that it might have issues with is mirobridge if that downloads artwork for the items it inserts. |
[01:52:51] | Captain_Murdoch: | actually, could use 60 or more in that case I guess. |
[01:52:52] | iamlindoro: | Mirobridge leaves the artwork pulling ot Jamu |
[01:52:54] | iamlindoro: | er to Jamu |
[01:53:05] | Captain_Murdoch: | ok. |

[01:53:53] | iamlindoro: | I have taken a half-hearted trial run at the generic metadata handling stuff, a draft has been open on my desktop for a week |
[01:54:04] | Beirdo: | heeh |
[01:54:10] | Captain_Murdoch: | what do you think on the expiration time, would 60 be too much? |
[01:54:12] | iamlindoro: | hopefully when we reorg the DB we can put image fields in for recordings |

[01:54:29] | iamlindoro: | Captain_Murdoch, it doesn't seem like too much to me, but doubtless you've thought it through better than I |
[01:55:07] | iamlindoro: | Anyone updating more frequently than that deserves to have to wiat a minute ;) |
[01:55:09] | Captain_Murdoch: | I figured you'd know what was going on outside PBB than me, that's why I asked. I thought about just setting no expire time since anything puting in artwork would be external to the frontend. |
[01:55:33] | Captain_Murdoch: | worst case is they don't see artwork for something new unless they reenter the screen. |
[01:55:52] | iamlindoro: | yeah, I think that would be a perfectly acceptable limitation, personally |
[01:56:05] | iamlindoro: | especially in light of my simmering desire to "do it right" while we do the DB merge |
[01:56:15] | ** Beirdo waits to hear luser complaints ** | |
[01:56:27] | Captain_Murdoch: | ok, I'm going to make it permanent then, it won't expire/clear unless you reenter the screen. |
[01:56:31] | iamlindoro: | cool |
[01:56:41] | Captain_Murdoch: | that makes it consistent. |
[01:56:59] | iamlindoro: | btw, by do it right I mean fix my own broken code, not to imply that your approach isn't right :) |
[01:58:18] | Beirdo: | heh |
[02:00:28] | Beirdo: | my head is so screwed up with all the time changes :) |
[02:00:41] | iamlindoro: | You know, you'd think PulseAudio would have a simple function to return the output devices connected at a given moment in time, instead of having to set up some giant asynchronous monstrosity... |
[02:01:07] | Beirdo: | quit being sensible :) |
[02:01:51] | iamlindoro: | I totally respect their goal of being able to plug in a given device and switch to it, so I totally "get" why they want it to be async |
[02:01:57] | iamlindoro: | but c'mon |
[02:02:13] | iamlindoro: | Not everybody wants to run some pulse listener at all times |
[02:04:46] | Beirdo: | true nuff |
[02:05:12] | iamlindoro: | They do have a "simple" API but it's way, way less than what's needed: http://maemo.org/api_refs/5.0/5.0-final/pulse . . . -source.html |

[02:10:09] | Captain_Murdoch: | iamlindoro, didn't even see that comment, so no worry. I'm about to test my change as soon as my dev database finishes it's weekly upgrade. |
[02:10:25] | iamlindoro: | Cool |
[02:11:07] | iamlindoro: | Ugh, installing pulseaudio, no amount of showers will make me feel clean |

[16:36:14] | sphery: | Dibblah: FWIW, I also think #8148 is a bad idea. If a system doesn't have libmp3lame, it shouldn't be able to run MythTV. And, if a distro uses this as a workaround for "(distro name) is so pure we don't allow license-/patent-questionable packages! <small>Oh, but users can just enable other repo's to get them and completely violate all the principles on which (distro) is based.</small>" then the distro shouldn't make MythTV ... |
[16:36:20] | sphery: | ... available--it should only be in the "other repo's" or--even better--users should just use a distro where using MythTV doesn't violate all the principles on which the distro is based. |
[16:36:24] | sphery: | wow, that was longer than I thought |
[16:36:36] | sphery: | wagnerrp: well, he's upgrading to 0.22-fixes |

[16:38:22] | wagnerrp: | anyway, what is lame used for? framegrabbers and transcoding? |
[16:38:34] | sphery: | yeah |
[16:38:45] | sphery: | but we need mp3 support in ffmpeg |
[16:38:54] | wagnerrp: | so something most users arent going to need anyway? |
[16:38:57] | sphery: | for playback of mp3 |
[16:39:10] | wagnerrp: | oh, i thought lame was an encoder only |
[16:39:30] | sphery: | but when a user sets up a system without libmp3lame and then does a transcode, then they get a audio-removed video |
[16:39:47] | sphery: | yeah, it is, but MP3 is patent-questionable whether for playback or encoding |

[16:57:19] | randomuser: | and, since i'm clearly a little ignorant, can anyone reccomend info besides mythtv.org? |
[16:58:02] | gbee: | randomuser: that all depends what you are recording, what source, what type of card you use, if you even use a card etc |
[16:58:40] | sphery: | for the digital part, you'd get what's broadcast--I'm supposing you're US ATSC since you're using HVR-1600, so that would be MPEG-2 in MPEG Systems Stream. For the analog part, you'll get MPEG-2 in MPEG Systems Stream. |
[16:58:46] | J-e-f-f-A: | randomuser: The 1600 is Analog and Digital – on Analog it'll encode to MPEG2 – for Digital, it just dumps the stream to disk – Which in the US, ATSC is MPEG2. I believe QAM cable is still MPEG2 also, if you're lucky enough to get anything. |
[16:58:48] | gbee: | Digital or analogue, hardware encoder or framegrabber, HD in europe or the US |

[17:05:44] | gbee: | the stream itself is infinite, but if you ask MythTV to record a program it just starts dumps the section between the start and end times you (or the guide data) specifies, for livetv it's doing the same thing but seamlessly transitions you from one file to the next so that you'd never even notice |

[17:16:12] | randomuser: | will myth export/serve to non-myth clients? |
[17:16:37] | justinh: | it has a UPNP server.. but whether it works with X client is up for discovery |
[17:16:48] | randomuser: | sure |
[17:17:07] | justinh: | some apps claim to work with a mythtv backend natively but YMMV |
[17:17:15] | dougt_: | i never was able to get myth working with my xbox360. maybe it uses some silly ms extension or something. |
[17:17:32] | randomuser: | the 360 is quirky |
[17:17:43] | justinh: | I doubt my TV goes loud enough to drown out the fans :P |
[17:17:50] | randomuser: | fuppes works, twonkymedia works |
[17:17:54] | iamlindoro: | If you were attempting to watch recordings on the 360, that won't happen |
[17:18:07] | randomuser: | one other i cant recall works, but has no categories |
[17:18:08] | dougt_: | iamlindoro: why? |
[17:18:35] | iamlindoro: | as Myth does framegrabber recordings in NUV container (which the 360 can't handle) and digital and hardware encoded recordings to MPEG-ts (which the 360 refuses to handle) |
[17:18:49] | iamlindoro: | that is to say, the 360 won't do TS via uPnP |
[17:18:50] | justinh: | the 'universal' bit of 'upnp' really stands for 'u might get lucky' |
[17:19:01] | iamlindoro: | it'll happily do it using their proprietary media center extender stuff |
[17:20:15] | randomuser: | fuppes also transcodes on the fly |
[17:21:07] | gbee: | upnp is anything but universal, although there is a standard, some clients don't adhere to the standards, others only implement part of that standard and even two standards compliant apps can behave differently |
[17:22:03] | gbee: | and as iamlindoro notes, even when clients support upnp it doesn't mean that can play all the common codecs, the consoles in particular have real trouble with that |
[17:22:09] | justinh: | it should really be put down.. that was what DLNA was supposed to be about but even that's a mess already |
[17:22:11] | sphery: | randomuser: You can set up a Windows box with Windows Media Player having a Samba share of the recordings directory(ies) mounted. Then have Windows Media Player serve the MythTV recordings to the XBox 360. WMP will then transcode on the fly to a "Microsoft-approved" container complete with the "Blessed by Microsoft WMP" bits the XBox 360 requires to use "external" video. |
[17:22:23] | sphery: | randomuser: then it only takes 3 computers to watch a TV show |
[17:22:35] | gbee: | heh |
[17:22:42] | sphery: | or, you could--and this is really a crazy idea--use mythfrontend to watch it with only one computer |
[17:22:49] | justinh: | but then nothing else is as capable of playing mythtv files as mythtv is |
[17:22:56] | justinh: | certainly not as fully featured |
[17:22:56] | sphery: | definitely |
[17:23:55] | sphery: | If you don't use mythfrontend, you lose commercial skipping, the OSD with mythtv-specific TV show metadata, (usually) timestretch, and basically everything that makes MythTV the best DVR application in existence! |
[17:23:56] | randomuser: | like i was saying, there are open source upnp servers that the xbox360 will use |
[17:24:11] | sphery: | randomuser: but the XBox 360 only plays MS-blessed formats |
[17:24:18] | justinh: | though (cough) other 'media center' apps are working on adding proper native mythtv support |
[17:24:21] | sphery: | MPEG-2 isn't one of them |
[17:24:36] | randomuser: | the only formats i have had trouble with are mkvs |
[17:24:52] | justinh: | arrrrrr emmm kay veeee |
[17:24:57] | sphery: | randomuser: http://blogs.msdn.com/xboxteam/archive/2007/1 . . . ack-faq.aspx |
[17:25:01] | sphery: | try MPEG-2 video |
[17:25:03] | sphery: | doesn't work |
[17:25:11] | sphery: | read the blog entry--it says what works |
[17:25:30] | iamlindoro: | MPEG-TS is actually the real sticking point |
[17:25:40] | iamlindoro: | it won't do that, which invalidates most people's recordings |
[17:25:49] | justinh: | wonder why in the world MS didn't bother with it. not like they can't afford the royalties |
[17:25:57] | iamlindoro: | They paid the royalties |
[17:26:03] | iamlindoro: | it'll handle TS fine... if you use MCE |
[17:26:04] | sphery: | randomuser: you can /only/ get MPEG2 with a WMV protected container From Windows Media Center to Xbox Media Center Extender |
[17:26:12] | iamlindoro: | ie, via their media center extender software |
[17:26:15] | justinh: | ugh |
[17:26:42] | sphery: | ah, so it doesn't have to change the container on it... |
[17:26:43] | sphery: | I see |
[17:27:01] | sphery: | but still only from WMC |
[17:27:01] | GreyFoxx: | MCE stores them in a drm filled container |
[17:27:06] | GreyFoxx: | dvr-ms or some such |
[17:27:06] | justinh: | mind you my sister uses MCE & times I've visited her stuff like music serving doesn't work to the 360 til everything has been rebooted half a dozen times |
[17:27:25] | sphery: | GreyFoxx: yeah, that's the WMV protected container |
[17:27:30] | justinh: | keep pointing out to her it's faster to find the CD |
[17:27:54] | randomuser: | i don't know what to say; i've been streaming to my 360 for years |
[17:28:01] | sphery: | justinh: reminds me of the Win 98 and prior days |
[17:28:01] | iamlindoro: | GreyFoxx: the drvms extension is just asf, and can be DRM or non |
[17:28:10] | GreyFoxx: | iaml: Cool |
[17:28:37] | iamlindoro: | I have toyed with the idea of looking at going NUV->MKV after the release |
[17:28:56] | iamlindoro: | Could do some neat tricks like add chapter markers at commercial points when transcoding, etc. |
[17:29:10] | GreyFoxx: | Support for the embedded subtitles in mkv's might be nice |
[17:29:12] | iamlindoro: | since we now support MKV chapters :) |
[17:32:34] | justinh: | btw is there any more menu button rationalising needed around the place? been a while since I ran trunk |
[17:33:31] | justinh: | ridiculous that the most code I've even hacked on has pretty much been committed & I've not even had it for a test drive yet |
[17:33:33] | gbee: | mythvideo |
[17:34:06] | justinh: | need to remember to make my dev box WoL so I can fiddle with it during the day |
[17:34:51] | mag0o: | /path/to/VirtualBox --startvm vm-guid |
[17:34:57] | mag0o: | that should do the trick justinh :) |
[17:35:45] | justinh: | pfft. not on my current backend machine |
[17:35:59] | justinh: | it's enough of a dog as it is |
[17:36:27] | mag0o: | hehe |
[17:36:33] | justinh: | plus when I'm hacking on UI code, specifically painters I want to see what it's really doing |
[17:36:35] | sphery: | justinh: wol saves me a ton of trips to the other room to start my dev box |
[17:36:43] | ** sphery loves wol ** | |
[17:37:14] | justinh: | I'd leave the dev box powered on all the time but for the noise it makes. still not got round to buying auto fan controllers yet |
[17:41:06] | sphery: | yeah, it's not worth the cost of the electricity for me to run it all the time |
[17:41:28] | sphery: | since it's not doing anything useful for me when I"m not directly using it |
[17:41:55] | justinh: | there's always CETI@Home for helping me find my parents |
[17:44:05] | wagnerrp: | iamlindoro: for recordings? or some external transcoder? |
[17:44:17] | iamlindoro: | wagnerrp: ? |
[17:44:22] | sphery: | I think the 7 computers (10 cores) on which I run SETI@home is enough of a contribution from me :) |
[17:44:38] | wagnerrp: | 'iamlindoro> I have toyed with the idea of looking at going NUV->MKV after the release' |
[17:44:38] | sphery: | 03.15 13:29:12 <+iamlindoro> since we now support MKV chapters :) |

From what I was told I should only scan for digital and when i pull in the channels from Sd the analog will come in as well. I am assuming that I will need to go through and fix up my channel listings because the xmltv-id probally wont be 100% correct. Is that a true statemen |
[18:08:29] | dewman: | t? |
[18:08:41] | devinheitmueller: | There are varying levels of customization across different products. Some of the issues involve IP protection of the core hardware design. Others involve DRM issues. |
[18:09:32] | devinheitmueller: | Also, building a customizable framework costs real money, and only provides a small increase in value to the *vast* majority of users. |
[18:10:02] | devinheitmueller: | i.e. you spend tens of thousands in developing a feature only useful to hobbyists, while nobody else gives a crap. |

[20:26:11] | kormoc: | and Millennium is worthless |
[20:26:15] | Beirdo: | maybe Dish, depending on location, I'd think |
[20:26:32] | kormoc: | I haven't found a single place that offers Dish in seattle city limits |
[20:26:33] | Beirdo: | Millennium being craptacular cable? |

[20:58:30] | devinheitmueller: | Reasonable recommendations, but enough loopholes to drive a truck through.... |

[20:59:31] | Beirdo: | gives the liars.. er lawyers something to work with |
[20:59:36] | skd5aner: | wow... by EOY 2012... good luck! |
[20:59:49] | devinheitmueller: | yeah. |
[21:02:46] | sphery: | devinheitmueller: even if that plan is successful, it would have no effect on MythTV or Myth's ability to access content, right? (I'm terrible at reading--even translated by a journalist--beaurocracy speak.) |
[21:03:26] | devinheitmueller: | Well, the "network gateway" stuff might *in theory* make it a little easier for third party solutions to access the streams, depending on how much DRM gets jammed into there. |
[21:03:52] | devinheitmueller: | For example, if it ends up being the same level of enforcement as traditional Macrovision, then it would be pretty easy to support. |
[21:03:53] | Beirdo: | devinheitmueller: I think that amount will be approximately "up the wazoo" |
[21:04:02] | sphery: | Ah. I was basing that assumption on the "device will also need to pass through content protection flags from cable operators" and the inability to get such protection in a GNU/Linux system with FOSS. |
[21:04:44] | devinheitmueller: | "Content protection flags" is pretty ambigious. |
[21:04:47] | sphery: | anyway, it's unlikely to make things worse--unless they successfully kill off Component :) |
[21:04:55] | sphery: | true |
[21:06:01] | skd5aner: | sphery: from article: The FCC says it should be cheap and allow consumer electronics companies to sell network-neutral devices that can access content independent of any particular MVPD or third party, allowing those consumer electronics companies to design to a common interface, and to open standards. The device will also need to pass through content protection flags from cable operators. |

[21:06:39] | skd5aner: | still could mean anything – but, doesn't explicitely look like a step in the wrong direction |
[21:07:08] | skd5aner: | and – why do you always have to bring up my least fav. topic sphery :'( |
[21:16:31] | sphery: | Right, but the "pass ... content protection flags" part seems to indicate it needs to support things like HDCP and/or "copy freely/copy once/copy never" flags or, at minimum, ICT, which--as I see it--would indicate that support from devices with Linux drivers is unlikely. Or, the device would only work on some stuff with Linux (where there were no flags). |
[21:17:07] | sphery: | the latter would be worse than the current--as MythTV and the scheduler would have no way of knowing if it would be able to record any program (unless SD starts including "protection flags" data in its listings data) |
[21:17:29] | devinheitmueller: | It's all about how it's defined. For example, Macrovision basically works like that, but there is pretty much zero support for Macrovision in any of the Linux drivers (and nobody seems to care) |

[21:25:05] | skd5aner: | you can't use ssh because it's not connected to the X session |
[21:25:40] | skd5aner: | I don't use mythbuntu, but you could either reset (big hammer) or try something like service gdm restart – not sure if gdm is used on mythbuntu |
[21:25:46] | sphery: | you could--as the user who's supposed to run mythfrontend, and the user who's currently running the X server--do: export DISPLAY=:0 && mythfrontend |
[21:25:59] | skd5aner: | or that |
[21:26:00] | sphery: | reset/reboot makes sense, too |
[21:26:20] | jolaren: | sphery: It does but I have a lot of recordings active |
[21:26:38] | skd5aner: | jolaren – when you start up, does it automatically log you in? |
[21:26:46] | sphery: | restarting X/GDM/whatever wouldn't affect them |
[21:27:01] | jolaren: | skd5aner: it does |
[21:27:16] | skd5aner: | sphery: in mythbuntu when it starts the wm, doesn't it launch mythfrontend automatically? |
[21:27:56] | jolaren: | export DISPLAY=:0 && mythfrontend |
[21:27:57] | jolaren: | did the trick |
[21:27:58] | jolaren: | thanks lad |
[21:27:59] | sphery: | something does |
[21:28:21] | sphery: | I don't know which level of the many layers is doing the actual starting, though |
[21:28:23] | skd5aner: | sphery's technique is technically the "rigt" way |
[21:28:35] | sphery: | I wouldn't say that... |
[21:29:33] | sphery: | depending on many distro-specific configuration things (i.e. who/what normally starts thing), it may have left stuff running or whatever |
[21:29:33] | skd5aner: | I use an .xsession file, so if mythfrontend kicks the bucket, my xsession restarts, and automatically restarts gdm, my wm, and mfe |
[21:30:08] | sphery: | yeah, mine is similar (though a slightly different implementation) |
[21:30:23] | skd5aner: | so, if something happens else happens, and it doesn't end the session, I can usually do a "service gdm restart" to get it back to normal pretty easily from ssh |
[21:30:42] | skd5aner: | need to look at using some lirc macro or something down the road to make it wife-friendly to restart the frontend |
[21:31:10] | sphery: | Ctrl-Alt-Backspace ? |
[21:31:44] | skd5aner: | well, I literrally mean mapping that (or something) to a button on a remote |

[21:35:25] | skd5aner: | that being said, I've yet to program it yet because I've got too much on my plate and there's a bit of a learning curve, so I've been using an IR keyboard and a logitech di novo mini BT keyboard for about a year |
[21:35:36] | sphery: | if someone builds an RF one that just sends an RF signal to the computer (versus the Harmony's RF to an IR repeater approach), I'd be very interested in it. |
[21:36:24] | skd5aner: | yea – the cool thing about it is it has RF extender, that allos me to put 7-IR blasters to it |
[21:36:42] | skd5aner: | I got it because when I built my house, I wired it entirely for distributed video |
[21:36:54] | ** sphery would call those IR transmitters ** | |
[21:37:14] | skd5aner: | and I wired so I can either directly extend IR to my wiring room, or use the connect to do it for me |
[21:37:38] | skd5aner: | yea, blasters/transmitters – tomato/tomato (proceed to sing song) |
[21:37:43] | sphery: | since a blaster implies that it blasts a signal strong enough to reach any device in the area by bouncing off walls in the room (or at least blasts a signal strong enough to reach any devices with a line of sight to the transmitter from a reasonable range) |
[21:38:02] | sphery: | I'm very pedantic about that term, though |
[21:38:08] | kormoc: | sphery: you haven't watched starwars have you? A blaster has no accuracy! |
[21:38:13] | sphery: | all blasters are transmitters, but some transmitters aren't blasters |

[21:39:13] | skd5aner: | kormoc: I love all the blaster accuracy jokes/memes :D |
[21:39:14] | sphery: | but since 99% of people always say blaster, I'm on the losing side of the battle |
[21:39:19] | sphery: | kormoc: heh, cool |
[21:39:34] | sphery: | I'll have to use that to support my argument |
[21:40:16] | skd5aner: | sphery: truth be told, I guess I almost always say "transmitter" – just was reading the page, and the fingers typed what they say this go around, so now you can say 98% ;) |
[21:40:27] | iamlindoro: | Han Solo has a blaster too |
[21:40:35] | iamlindoro: | And he shot first |
[21:40:37] | sphery: | heh, I just found http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Wookieepedia:Welcome,_newcomers |
[21:40:37] | kormoc: | that's true |
[21:40:41] | sphery: | "Wookiepedia" |
[21:40:57] | sphery: | skd5aner: welcome to the cause! |
[21:41:09] | ** kormoc wonders if it talks about the wookie jesus ** | |
[21:41:31] | sphery: | wow, they have a wiki for everything |

[22:05:01] | Hymie: | iamlindoro: hey dude .. so, I've sort of completed my investigation into what was causing my slowdown. Some of it was on my end, some of it is just the way myth works now, do you want a list of what I found, as a FYI? |
[22:05:02] | iamlindoro: | kormoc: Speaking of bacon, my friends bought me a case of... bacon chocolate bars |
[22:05:08] | kormoc: | Yum! |

[22:06:15] | iamlindoro: | Little hunks |
[22:06:17] | Beirdo: | OK. |
[22:06:19] | Beirdo: | hehe |
[22:06:19] | iamlindoro: | salty and sweet |
[22:06:34] | Beirdo: | and I get called odd for liking PB & bacon sandwiches |
[22:06:58] | Beirdo: | bacon's good with anything ;) |
[22:07:04] | kormoc: | especially bacon! |
[22:07:14] | Beirdo: | yup |
[22:07:27] | Beirdo: | pb & cheddar is pretty good too, BTW |
[22:07:35] | Beirdo: | oh oh... |
[22:07:43] | jolaren: | I remember eatin philly cheese steaks everyday when livin in the US |
[22:07:44] | ** Beirdo is showing his French Canadian side ** | |
[22:07:49] | jolaren: | I still miss the taSte of that |
[22:08:32] | Beirdo: | toast with PB & cheddar. yum |
[22:08:33] | Beirdo: | hehe |
[22:08:36] | iamlindoro: | #8187 is a slippery slope |
[22:08:36] | jolaren: | Don't you guys love philly cheese steaks? |
[22:08:50] | iamlindoro: | especially since a big hunk of the code is mine and I don't care to be there |

[22:10:07] | Beirdo: | some people want the "glory" I guess |
[22:10:19] | Beirdo: | and the associated potential lawsuits? |

[22:10:40] | jolaren: | kormoc: both i guess :P |

[22:11:40] | iamlindoro: | Beirdo: Closed it wontfix, not because I don't appreciate it, but simply because I don't want to maintain it going forward |
[22:11:47] | kormoc: | oh lord, food court is bad |
[22:11:52] | Beirdo: | yeah, good choice, iamlindoro |
[22:12:07] | jolaren: | they were totally great tho kormoc |
[22:12:25] | kormoc: | Nope! Can't compare! |
[22:12:36] | Beirdo: | kormoc: sometime I'll go to Philly and have the real thing(s) |

[22:13:22] | jolaren: | + diet coke that is |
[22:13:26] | iamlindoro: | which you're not allowed to call that-- it's a "steak and Cheese" |

[22:14:54] | jolaren: | haha |
[22:15:01] | Beirdo: | restaurant? Get out the frying pan :) |
[22:15:04] | jolaren: | Polarbear kebab |
[22:15:25] | Beirdo: | I bet reindeer is actually quite good eats |
[22:15:33] | Beirdo: | similar to other venisons |
[22:15:40] | gbee: | read a while ago that the original "Cheese Steak" is actually made with real cheese |
[22:15:42] | iamlindoro: | I would lose a lot of respect for swedes if they hurt Polar Bears |
[22:15:47] | iamlindoro: | poor bears have it bad enough as is |
[22:15:49] | Beirdo: | just don't tell the kids at Christmas |

[22:16:59] | jolaren: | Hehe |
[22:17:10] | jolaren: | Acctually I've only eaten reindeer a few times |
[22:17:12] | gbee: | it's amusing that there is apparently such a battle over who 'invented' a cheese and steak sandwich ... two common ingredients, not exactly the discovery of the century |
[22:17:34] | jolaren: | gbee: I still love it tho so I'd say I have disagree |
[22:17:37] | Beirdo: | gbee: yeah, leave it to the Americans to fight over something so... simple :) |
[22:17:39] | jolaren: | It's the greatest sandwich there is |
[22:17:39] | kormoc: | gbee: the main places in philly are across the street from each other, it's amusing to see the folks get in fights over it |
[22:18:03] | iamlindoro: | gbee: Think it's the association with a staple food that they're after :) |
[22:18:13] | jolaren: | I really shouldn't be dicussion food :P I guess I'll have to fry the bacon now |
[22:18:17] | Beirdo: | I dunno, jolaren... |
[22:18:18] | jolaren: | Gonna check to see if I have some eggs |
[22:18:23] | jolaren: | scsrambled eggs + bacon |
[22:18:24] | jolaren: | mmmh |
[22:18:28] | Beirdo: | a good meatball sub's pretty sweet too |
[22:18:37] | jolaren: | yer so common in sweden tho |
[22:18:49] | Beirdo: | heh, true. |
[22:18:49] | jolaren: | if you havent' tasted swedish meatballs then you haven't really eaten meatballs at all |
[22:19:19] | Beirdo: | Oh, I have |
[22:19:24] | kormoc: | at ikea! |
[22:19:29] | Beirdo: | of course :) |
[22:19:30] | jolaren: | Yeah |
[22:19:30] | Beirdo: | hehe |
[22:19:31] | jolaren: | that's a hot tip |
[22:19:34] | Beirdo: | and elsewhere |
[22:19:40] | Beirdo: | but definitely at Ikea |
[22:19:41] | iamlindoro: | So anyone catch "The Pacific" last night? Series gonna be *Good* |
[22:19:49] | jolaren: | Last time I visited Miami you could acctually buy meatballs there (to take home) not from the cafeteria that is |
[22:19:58] | Beirdo: | iamlindoro: nah, back in *no TV* land |
[22:19:59] | jolaren: | from ikea |
[22:20:06] | iamlindoro: | Beirdo: Boo! |
[22:20:13] | Beirdo: | stupid crappy OTA bleh |
[22:20:20] | iamlindoro: | gbee: Think you will like it when it makes it over there (I recall you liked Band of Brothers) |
[22:20:37] | Beirdo: | and I don't wanna pay to hookup cable when I hope to move in a month or less |
[22:20:54] | Beirdo: | but I will add that to my "you should watch" list |
[22:21:16] | gbee: | iamlindoro: ooh, just hope it airs on one of the FTA channels and it's not locked up by Sky |
[22:21:43] | iamlindoro: | Beirdo: plus, will still be going for ten weeks so you could probably catch the whole thing by the time you got cable hooked up |
[22:22:00] | Beirdo: | cool |
[22:22:12] | iamlindoro: | gbee: Yeah, *very* similar formula... sort of a slow start like the first episode of BoB, but overall very enjoyable |
[22:22:13] | jolaren: | btw one thing I do miss bout the US |
[22:22:19] | jolaren: | is beein able to buy kegs |
[22:22:26] | Beirdo: | ?!?! |
[22:22:32] | jolaren: | kegs with beer? |
[22:22:35] | Beirdo: | no kegs in Sweden? |
[22:22:38] | jolaren: | no |
[22:22:41] | iamlindoro: | Because you never know when you'll need 150 servings of beer |
[22:22:43] | Beirdo: | they don't fit in the Volvo? |
[22:22:49] | gbee: | bought Generation Kill on DVD back around Christmas, purely based on 'The Wire' connection, I've yet to watch it |
[22:23:00] | iamlindoro: | gbee: I'm told that's very good, haven't seen it either |
[22:23:07] | jolaren: | iamlindoro: if your havin a party or w/e :P tho i'd keep a keg in me house if there were kegs available |
[22:23:18] | Beirdo: | but why aren't they available? |
[22:23:22] | Beirdo: | makes no sense to me |
[22:24:02] | Beirdo: | Mmmmm, beer |
[22:24:16] | iamlindoro: | I have 24 Stella in the kitchen I need to burn through |
[22:24:26] | gbee: | saving it for a rainy day when I've nothing else to watch, it's only a 7 ep mini-series |
[22:24:27] | Beirdo: | hehe |
[22:24:32] | jolaren: | Beirdo: the state has monopoly on the alchol distrubution |
[22:24:35] | jolaren: | distribution |
[22:24:38] | Beirdo: | and? |
[22:24:51] | gbee: | eww, Stella |
[22:24:57] | Beirdo: | it does in other places too (like in most if not all of Canada) |
[22:25:37] | iamlindoro: | yay, stella! |
[22:25:40] | Beirdo: | Stella's not bad, gbee... iamlindoro IS American, at least it's not Bud :) |
[22:25:58] | kormoc: | most of the US as well |
[22:26:08] | kormoc: | Yengling! |
[22:26:12] | gbee: | I've become a beer (ale) snob, there was once a time when I'd have rated Stella above most everything else normally found on tap |
[22:26:12] | Beirdo: | hehe |
[22:26:15] | ** kormoc weeps for his missing beer ** | |
[22:26:31] | Beirdo: | gbee: yeah, but for swill, it's a pretty good swill |
[22:26:49] | Beirdo: | or something like that |
[22:27:01] | gbee: | Stella is indeed a better lager than any of the major US ones, so I can see the appeal |
[22:27:12] | iamlindoro: | My Triathlong team has a camping trip this coming weekend-- a good chance to burn off excess beer |
[22:27:20] | iamlindoro: | s/Triathlonh/Triathlon/ |

[22:30:00] | Beirdo: | well, all Scotch is imported or it ain't worth drinking |

[22:30:51] | iamlindoro: | Aw c'mon, some of the bourbon whiskey's aren't bad at all |
[22:31:08] | Beirdo: | iamlindoro: true, but they are NOT scotch :) |
[22:31:15] | Beirdo: | completely different flavor |
[22:31:15] | iamlindoro: | snobby ;) |
[22:31:21] | gbee: | kormoc: not all that surprising, his part of the world like most that far north with long dark nights (and days) has a high rate of alcohol abuse – jolaren correct me if I'm wrong |
[22:31:22] | iamlindoro: | yes, different flavor |
[22:31:25] | iamlindoro: | but still nummy |
[22:31:26] | Beirdo: | they are still good, but not the same thing |
[22:31:44] | iamlindoro: | For my money, and bearing in mind that I'm Irish, I prefer Irish Whiskey |
[22:31:48] | skd5aner: | this is starting to remind me of my college roomate – what a snobby "whiskey" drinker he was – "scotch is what normal people call it" :P |

[22:33:27] | Beirdo: | don't say that within swinging distance. :) Especially after they've had their whiskey |
[22:33:50] | Beirdo: | honestly, Irish Whiskey's good stuff too |
[22:33:52] | iamlindoro: | especially redheaded women... |
[22:34:07] | skd5aner: | gbee: I would call it scotch, but I was never a "scotch" man, I preferred spirits |

[22:35:00] | gbee: | skd5aner: I was teasing, Whiskey with an e is Irish, Whisky is Scottish (scotch) |

[22:37:15] | iamlindoro: | have a sip |
[22:37:21] | Beirdo: | hehe |
[22:37:29] | Beirdo: | JW Black is tolerable... barely |
[22:37:41] | skd5aner: | Honestly, I thought it was cool how much he knew, but talk about becoming a snobby drinker – speaking of camping and drinking, he had to bring his crystal snifter he got in Scotland camping so he could properly enjoy his $150 single malt |

[22:39:59] | kormoc: | I'm totally not a scotch drinker, I have no idea what a good scotch is worth |
[22:40:05] | Beirdo: | the decent ones started around there (in Ontario) |
[22:40:13] | skd5aner: | I tend to drink top-shelf too, but for me – I can get a great vodka for $30–50 and be perfectly satisfied. It's like a scotch is only as good as it's price tag and there's always a "more expensive" one out there |
[22:40:28] | Beirdo: | and Ontario had slightly lower prices than WA at the time |
[22:40:57] | Beirdo: | Scotch is only as good as its flavor, and your preference of said flavor |
[22:41:31] | Beirdo: | the $40 bottles were just booze |
[22:41:31] | skd5aner: | I didn't say we were students when this happened, but I guess you infered by "roomate" I must have meant students – in which case, yes he *was* my college roomate, but this was years later |

[22:42:04] | gbee: | skd5aner: ahh |

[22:44:12] | sphery: | (but my background seems to be corrupt... I'll figure that one out later) |
[22:44:19] | Beirdo: | 50 was known for being drunk by.... old people... rugby players... and University of Waterloo Engineers |

[23:46:56] | k-man: | Beirdo: i was thinking more along the lines of listening to streamed radio stations rather than over the air radio |
[23:46:57] | iamlindoro: | at bitrates of approximately nothing, perhaps |
[23:47:05] | Beirdo: | ooooh, that's different |
[23:47:20] | iamlindoro: | That system with an ATI GPU won't manage high bitrate content well at all |
[23:47:25] | k-man: | Beirdo: i fiddled around with asterisk for a while and managed to set up music on hold using streamed audio from the nets |
[23:47:27] | Beirdo: | not sure, but I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard |
[23:47:34] | iamlindoro: | but an nVidia GPU and get HW accel, or give up |

[23:48:05] | Coded1: | iamlindoro, cool thanks for the heads up |
[23:48:15] | iamlindoro: | np |
[23:48:31] | k-man: | the trickyest part is working out how to stream your favourite radio station using ffmpeg or similar |
[23:48:57] | Beirdo: | mplayer does a decent job of almost every stream I've thrown at it |

[23:49:48] | iamlindoro: | Micah Galizia has shoutcast/net radio patches for MythMusic-- most of the code is changes to libavcodec and libavformat, which he is working to get in upstream |
[23:50:23] | Beirdo: | hmmm |
[23:50:25] | iamlindoro: | also, an MMS implementation is one of the ffmpeg GSoC projects for this year-- so between those two and the MythMusic rewrite, streaming radio should be easily doable six months or so down the line |
[23:50:42] | Beirdo: | how about realplayer streams :) |
[23:51:10] | k-man: | Beirdo: oh maybe i used mplayer – i forget now ;) |
[23:51:12] | sybolt (sybolt!~sybolt@sybolt.xs4all.nl) has joined #mythtv-users | |
[23:51:32] | iamlindoro: | what streaming protocol do they use? |
[23:52:11] | Beirdo: | rtsp, I think, not sure |
[23:52:18] | k-man: | mythmusic is too complex for listening to raido imho, i mean the ui is. with radio you just want to hit a few buttons and get your favourite station to start playing |
[23:52:29] | iamlindoro: | someone is working on an RTSP implementation in ffmpeg ATM too |
[23:52:39] | sdf45_roc: | you all live in a freakin' WORLD OF YOUR OWN, in your OWN FREAKIN' PARADISE! IT"S REALPLAYER GUYS — IT USES THE DEVIL TO STREAM!!!!!!OM |
[23:52:42] | sdf45_roc: | THE R#_)@#$)@# DEVIL |
[23:52:44] | sdf45_roc (sdf45_roc!~vytas@zaftig.dendron.com) has quit (Quit: ircII EPIC4-2.6 -- Are we there yet?) | |
[23:52:46] | iamlindoro: | k-man, as previously mentioned, Mythmusic is being rewritten from scratch |
[23:52:52] | Beirdo: | I'd like to see a MythRadio that would do both streaming and tuned, personally :) |
[23:52:56] | kormoc: | was he waiting for days to say that? |
[23:52:57] | Coded1: | out of these cards which one is the best deal? http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/catego . . . &Recs=10 |
[23:52:59] | Beirdo: | but however it fits in would be good |
[23:53:41] | Beirdo: | kormoc: what a strange character |
[23:53:54] | k-man: | iamlindoro: that was not a criticism of myth music, only a comment that imho, it would be nice to have a very simple quick way to play predefined stations, and mythmusic's ui does not lend itself to that approach |
[23:54:03] | k-man: | iamlindoro: but i hear what your saying |
[23:54:20] | iamlindoro: | k-man, I'm just saying that making a determination based on a UI that is unwritten yet is a bit hasty ;) |
[23:54:26] | Beirdo: | :) |
[23:54:27] | oobe: | Coded1, http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/Search . . . p;CatId=3585 i didnt look at all of them but this looks reasonable |
[23:54:37] | k-man: | iamlindoro: you might be right there :) |
[23:54:40] | oobe: | that will be more than enough |
[23:54:50] | Beirdo: | make it look like an audio amp with a CD changer and radio, etc :) |
[23:54:51] | Beirdo: | hehe |

[23:55:25] | Beirdo: | complete with a volume knob that goes to 11 |
[23:55:36] | oobe: | i would look for hdmi support too if you have a tv with hdmi |
[23:56:02] | Coded1: | oobe, ya just though of that, its running via hdmi right now |
