[06:32:40] wagnerrp: ouch
[06:32:56] wagnerrp: the problem is that youve wiped out your partition table
[06:33:41] wagnerrp: now file systems have distributed tables scattered around the hard drive for quick access
[06:33:52] wagnerrp: but usually the start of the disk defines the locations of thos
[06:33:53] wagnerrp: e
[06:35:06] wagnerrp: if you can create a fake partition of exactly the same size as your existing disk, format it in exactly the same manner, and then dd a couple megs of that back to the real disk
[06:35:14] wagnerrp: you may be able to recover whatever wasnt overwritten
[06:35:43] wagnerrp: i recovered most of a 250GB disk formatted with UFS2 that way several years back
[06:36:09] wagnerrp: of course then i had only managed to destroy the first few dozen MB, instead of several dozen GB

[09:57:14] zzztrumee is now known as trumee
[09:57:15] ciphergoth: huh, in the channel editor in mythtv-setup I see many channels twice
[09:57:33] ciphergoth: sometimes with slightly different names eg BBC FOUR/BBC Four
[09:59:16] ciphergoth: this seems to be the problem! One has a channel number the other an xmltv id
[10:00:05] ciphergoth: should I just delete all channels and restart? How would I go about that?
[10:00:07] stuartm: ciphergoth: yeah, you need to associate the xmltvid with the channels added by the scan, otherwise xmltv/mythfilldatabase insert channels instead
[10:00:16] ciphergoth: oh God
[10:00:21] stuartm: 'Delete All Channels'
[10:00:24] ciphergoth: OK
[10:00:28] ciphergoth: grief!
[10:00:51] ciphergoth: ok DONE, what next?
[10:01:00] stuartm: think I'll disable that behaviour, analogue is rare enough these days that we don't really want xmltv inserting channels
[10:01:30] stuartm: ciphergoth: scan, then go through the channels editing each one and adding the xmltvid
[10:01:32] ciphergoth: have started scan
[10:01:36] ciphergoth: owwwwwww!
[10:01:37] stuartm: or you could just use EIT
[10:01:47] ciphergoth: is there a plan to avoid this pain in future?
[10:01:49] stuartm: although xmltv (radiotimes) data is better
[10:01:55] stuartm: ciphergoth: yes
[10:02:18] ciphergoth: I used to just use EIT
[10:02:42] stuartm: but it tends to take a backseat as most devs haven't set up a new system in years

[10:03:49] ciphergoth: thought it would be easier after all these years1

[19:28:37] dfletcher: in-line brick
[19:28:40] dfletcher: on the DVD thing
[19:31:57] dfletcher: hmm I'll try separating the svideo cable from the rest of the rats nest. I think there's another unused hole in this cabinet I can use

[19:52:11] wagnerrp: why do you need dvd?
[19:52:22] dfletcher: I have a big collection that's not ripped yet
[19:52:45] wagnerrp: use a dvd player?

[19:53:04] dfletcher: the iso playback is sweet

I will contribute to mythtv at some point, mythtv is one of those projects what is fun and easy to contribute to, i think there comes a time where you need to stop looking around and start focusing
[20:14:14] dustybin: a lot of people here are dedicated to mythtv, but what about other exciting projects like asterisk and zoneminder etc

[20:16:00] dustybin: i dont understand how you could make yourself dedicated to one project when there are lots of projects out there what are equally as exciting
[20:16:22] bjd: maybe people don't find them equally exciting?
[20:16:34] dustybin: indeed that might be the case!
[20:16:39] wagnerrp: maybe people dont have a use for them, or find that they already do everything they need
[20:16:57] wagnerrp: if something already does everything you need/want, there is not reason to assist development
[20:17:13] bjd: i can't see many people having much use for znoeminder anyway
[20:17:16] dfletcher: yeah I was wondering that. like what's the incentive right now to e.g. jump into the Samba team? I can't see any. sucks for them
[20:17:49] dfletcher: it's too good for their own good ;)
[20:17:54] wagnerrp: dfletcher: well... maybe you want full AD server support

[20:18:04] wagnerrp: or you find something a bit slow and you want to optimize things
[20:18:11] dfletcher: hmm I guess
[20:18:12] AndyCap: smb2 support.
[20:18:24] ** wagnerrp got there first **
[20:18:32] ** wagnerrp jumps up and down **
[20:18:38] wagnerrp: in yo face AndyCap!

[20:19:08] wagnerrp: :P
[20:19:46] AndyCap: In soviet russia the software finds you
[20:21:20] dustybin: 1) first check everything out, find out what you like. 2) contribute and dedicate yourself to something you enjoy the most
[20:21:42] dustybin: 3) dont expect and praise for what you do, do it because you want to.
[20:21:51] AndyCap: dustybin: and mythzoneminder and mythphone had to come from somewhere. :)

[20:27:33] ** dfletcher decides to contribute his amazing mythcoffee and mythhomesecurity (when they exist) :P **
[20:29:53] wagnerrp: dustybin: the attitude over 'why dont you contribute' is only for people requesting new features
[20:30:11] wagnerrp: if you want to use the software, and never contribute anything back to the community, thats fine
[20:30:20] wagnerrp: its open source to allow people to do that
[20:30:35] dfletcher: omg there's 4 hours until next recording! ummm I knew there was about 10 things I wanted to do on the backend but now I can't remember any of them!
[20:30:48] wagnerrp: if you want to start requesting new features, its nice if you show youre willing to put forth some effort to benefit mythtv on your own
[20:31:01] dfletcher: mmm icons. btw why do I have to shut off the backend just to get channel icons? isn't that a bit.. weak?
[20:31:22] wagnerrp: dfletcher: i dont think thats actually the case
[20:31:37] dfletcher: wagnerrp, well the only tool I've found so far is in the backend setup
[20:31:41] wagnerrp: i think that was just put in the channel editor because thats where it makes sense to
[20:31:51] dustybin: wagnerrp: aye i see your point
[20:32:51] dustybin: i remember 'public domain' in the Amiga days
[20:32:57] wagnerrp: dfletcher: most things in mythtv-setup require a restart of the backend, including adding and deleting channels
[20:33:13] wagnerrp: but i dont think just adding channel icons makes a difference
[20:33:24] dfletcher: right but there's like 400 missing icons in my setup. it takes a long time to go through this
[20:33:30] wagnerrp: if for no other reason than the backend doesnt actually use them for anything
[20:33:37] dfletcher: so if this is the only tool to do it... my backend is down all that time
[20:33:39] wagnerrp: the most it does is provide file access to them
[20:33:48] wagnerrp: so run mythtv-setup without terminating the backend
[20:33:54] dfletcher: oh I can do that?
[20:33:54] wagnerrp: you can do that
[20:33:57] dfletcher: how?
[20:33:57] sid3windr: does mythfrontend compile on mips? ;)
[20:34:12] wagnerrp: by running it without terminating the backend?
[20:34:19] wagnerrp: seems fairly obvious to me
[20:34:34] sid3windr: wagnerrp: unless running mythbuntu I guess
[20:34:36] dfletcher: oh heh sorry I'm on ubuntu, the menu items just do it
[20:34:38] dfletcher: heh sorry
[20:34:40] sid3windr: :)
[20:34:48] wagnerrp: right, on mythbuntu, you need to run 'mythtv-setup.real'
[20:34:55] wagnerrp: they have a wrapper script around the real binary
[20:35:05] wagnerrp: for the purposes of automatically shutting down the backend when you run it

[21:55:25] clever: 2 fully seperate cores on there own die's
[21:55:31] wagnerrp: oh

[23:02:40] Azelphur: why is it that mythtv doesn't pick up the correct channel number assignments from freesat?
[23:02:47] Azelphur: is it a bug or does freesat not broadcast the numbers?
[23:03:13] wagnerrp: im guessing the latter
[23:03:27] wagnerrp: they broadcast their own non-standard virtual assignments
[23:03:42] wagnerrp: that only their official STBs are programmed to access
[23:03:58] Azelphur: I see
[23:04:09] wagnerrp: (just a guess)
[23:04:13] bjd: wagnerrp: if you don't mind my asking, whats your dayjob?
[23:04:26] wagnerrp: student
[23:04:36] bjd: ah
[23:04:48] Azelphur: would be interesting to find out exactly what's going on there so it could be fixed properly
[23:05:12] Azelphur: if it's virtual assignments, there must be a list somewhere

[23:28:23] dansushi (dansushi!~dan@147.4.211.193) has joined #mythtv-users
[23:28:30] wagnerrp: check your backend logs for why the recording is failing
[23:28:37] ** DQn3tsWRK googles **
[23:28:46] wagnerrp: not google, backend logs
[23:30:09] DQn3tsWRK: http://pastebin.com/wQ9VACNe

[23:39:57] DQn3tsWRK: im getting errors about irsend
[23:41:54] wagnerrp: DQn3tsWRK: are you trying to use a external tuner? like a set-top-box?
[23:42:02] DQn3tsWRK: yea
[23:42:09] DQn3tsWRK: pvr150 with dtv stb
[23:42:16] wagnerrp: looks like you have not set up lirc
[23:42:23] wagnerrp: so your channel changer script is failing
[23:42:47] bjd: yea
[23:43:06] wagnerrp: since its failing, and returning an exit code other than zero, mythtv expects the whole tuning process has failed, and refuses to start capture
[23:43:55] DQn3tsWRK: hrmm
[23:43:57] DQn3tsWRK: any suggestions?
[23:44:15] wagnerrp: install and run lirc
[23:44:22] DQn3tsWRK: i did install it
[23:44:30] DQn3tsWRK: and i thought i set it up in mythbuntu control centre
[23:44:39] wagnerrp: is it configured to use your ir blaster, and running?
[23:44:39] DQn3tsWRK: how do i run lirc
