[01:37:04] wagnerrp: hevymetal87_: you click on the link that matches the type of capture card that is

[05:20:36] J-e-f-f-A: ugh... Onlly one firewire port on this test box... Bought a PCI firewire/usb card at Micro Center – and it doesn't work... :-(
[05:22:18] J-e-f-f-A: MC didn't have a Firewire -> Motherboard Header bracket either... Oh well, only one FiOS STB will work with channel-changing until I remedy that issue...
[05:22:28] Kazan: welcome to the wonderful world of the content cartel and their fascist mindset
[05:22:50] Kazan: i'm just hoping someone gets the InfiniTV 4 working on linux.. with Cablecard :D
[05:23:15] Kazan: Quad tuner, m-card utilizing, card :D
[05:23:16] J-e-f-f-A: Kazan, don't count on Cablecard in Linux, unfortunately... :-(
[05:23:30] Kazan: oh i won't count on it being "officially" supported
[05:23:44] Kazan: but someone with enough motiviation and right knowledge could get it working
[05:23:50] J-e-f-f-A: Kazan, That's why I just got two HD-PVR's... ^ perhaps.
[05:24:37] Kazan: lots of the jackhole cable companies are encrypting every single QAM channel, other than local bcast, even when the channel owner has told them that it's against their license to transmit said channel
[05:24:59] ** Kazan is currently local bcast only **
[05:25:43] Kazan: do you know where the up-to-date list of dependancies for .23 is? just did a fresh OS install and gettin ready to compile
[05:26:25] J-e-f-f-A: Kazan, I just got FiOS TV HD installed today – two HD boxes. I've got everything working perfect right now except the 2nd box channel changing, since this MB only has one external firewire port, and the QIP7100 doesn't have a loop-through firewire port... :-(
[05:27:24] Kazan: are you using firewire to carry image?
[05:27:28] Kazan: or just channel changing?
[05:27:40] Kazan: if just channel changing how are you getting image?
[05:28:01] J-e-f-f-A: Kazan, No, sorry, I don't. I used Jarod's guide for most of it, and trial-and-error for the rest. But I'm sure there's a list somewhere.
[05:28:19] J-e-f-f-A: Kazan, Firewire for channel changing only currently, and capture via HD-PVRs
[05:28:47] J-e-f-f-A: BTW: FiOS TV HD looks STUNNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[05:29:31] Kazan: HD-PVRs? what card specifically?
[05:29:48] Kazan: or are you talkin about the external $250/pop USB ones?
[05:30:20] ** Kazan only has a 720p TV.. which is nice.. but it's no 1080p **
[05:30:27] J-e-f-f-A: Hauppauge HD-PVR --- Model 1212 – it's an external USB box that converts HD Component Video into H.264 in hardware.
[05:30:40] Kazan: k so it is the one i was thinkin gof

[12:58:26] wagnerrp: yeah, it doesnt even do any compile checks
[12:58:29] wagnerrp: it just checks for the files
[12:59:45] wagnerrp: for example, FLAC is looking for ${PREFIX}/include/FLAC/all.h and ${PREFIX}/lib/libFLAC.so
[13:01:44] Kazan: well.. prefix is /usr/local by default right?
[13:01:49] wagnerrp: yes
[13:02:01] Kazan: well.. that's not where the headers are residing.. that would be the problem
[13:02:24] wagnerrp: it will also check in /usr
[13:02:38] Kazan: that's where they are
[13:03:05] Kazan: so add --libdir-name=/usr ?
[13:03:25] Kazan: or /usr/include ?
[13:04:16] wagnerrp: would make no difference either way
[13:04:36] Kazan: trying either of those i get a bunch of complaints from sed "sed: -e expression #1, char 9: unknown option to 'S'"
[13:04:47] Kazan: what do i need to set to make it check?
[13:04:53] Kazan: (the right paths)
[13:05:36] wagnerrp: it checks everywhere the operating system would check when it ran the binary
[13:05:48] wagnerrp: meaning if you try to fix it that way, you just broke things anyway
[13:05:55] Kazan: odd
[13:06:04] Kazan: i installed everything but mythtv from RPM
[13:06:14] Kazan: mythtv itself compiled and installed fine, just mythplugins giving me flack
[13:07:25] wagnerrp: flak, and its interesting that it would fail on lame, because you need lame to install mythtv proper
[13:07:47] Kazan: yeah
[13:07:54] wagnerrp: youre running 0.23-fixes, right?
[13:08:20] Kazan: hmm i see in the .configure script it is setting LIBPATHS=cat /etc/ld.so.conf | grep -v "#" | grep -v "include"
[13:08:26] Kazan: yes, and that check right there is going to fail
[13:08:36] Kazan: because /etc/ld.so.conf is deprecated. and empty
[13:08:53] Kazan: Fedora 13 uses /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ files
[13:10:04] wagnerrp: http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-4.html#ss4.2
[13:10:40] Kazan: that's the same check that the mythtv configure uses
[13:11:04] Kazan: oh i guess ld.so.conf isn't blank
[13:11:10] Kazan: that instruction is in ld.so.conf
[13:12:04] Kazan: that instruction still comes up blank

[13:14:25] Kazan: gotcha

[14:55:14] alenl: anyone has any idea how can nonzero BER happen, if the signal is 65%+ and SNR is 99%?
[14:55:19] Jay2k1: for the movies, i fine tune the cutlist, do a lossless transcode and then want to move them to mythvideo
[14:55:35] Jay2k1: the "move to mythvideo" is what i do with that script
[14:56:02] wagnerrp: the "move to mythvideo" is what i do with this script... http://mythtv.org/wiki/Mythvidexport.py
[14:56:31] Jay2k1: i guess that also transfers the metadata?
[14:56:44] Jay2k1: i have a binding on my remote that fetches the imdb data
[14:56:46] wagnerrp: moves into the mythvideo path, adds an entry, performs lookup on themoviedb.org, or failing that duplicates it from the guide data
[14:57:02] Jay2k1: i see
[14:57:05] Jay2k1: sounds clever
[14:57:15] wagnerrp: requires 0.23
[14:57:24] Jay2k1: i have it
[14:58:44] Jay2k1: thanks, gonna have a look at that

[16:21:53] wagnerrp: s/ATSC/QAM/
[16:22:01] Kazan: well yeah.. technically
[16:22:07] wagnerrp: and hes not talking about you
[16:22:11] Kazan: oh
[16:22:14] Kazan: i thought hwe was
[16:22:14] wagnerrp: hes talking about someone on the -dev list
[16:22:18] Kazan: oooooooh
[16:22:31] Kazan: apologies :D
[16:22:36] wagnerrp: who wants mythtv to record shows that it cant decode
[16:22:48] wagnerrp: when doing digital recordings, mythtv waits until it hits the first keyframe
[16:22:57] wagnerrp: because the video before the first keyframe is worthless garbage
[16:22:58] Kazan: yeah
[16:23:28] wagnerrp: so the person he is referring to wants mythtv to record those shows anyway
[16:23:28] Kazan: maybe he wants to use the service he's paying for, in a way the Cartel doesn't approve of.. like, being able to watch the premium channels
[16:23:48] wagnerrp: sphery's assumption was that he wants mythtv to record those encrypted shows that he doesnt have a CAM for
[16:23:58] Kazan: presuming that someone is "stealing cable" simply because they want to be able to decrypt encrypted content is dishonest at best
[16:23:59] wagnerrp: which he can then decrypt offline
[16:24:13] Kazan: in the USA you cannot get CAMs, even for service you paid for, for recording in linux
[16:24:15] wagnerrp: over here, thats called a felony
[16:24:22] Kazan: unless someone gets the Ceton InfiniTV 4
[16:24:26] Kazan: um.. not if its a channel you paid for
[16:24:33] wagnerrp: its a DMCA violation
[16:24:40] Kazan: the DMCA can kiss our collective posterior
[16:25:00] wagnerrp: most of the developers live in the US, and do not want to distribute software that violates DMCA
[16:25:14] Kazan: every time that provision of the DMCA might got to SCOTUS in a case this like the MAFIAA drops their case, ever notice?
[16:25:47] wagnerrp: individual users have never been hit with violations
[16:25:47] Kazan: that's a problem i've had with those developers for a long time
[16:25:49] wagnerrp: companies have

[16:44:36] Kazan: so it doesn't run south of the DMCA even for piss-pants
[16:44:39] Kazan: true
[16:45:03] Kazan: plus.. if someone got the Ceton InfiniTV 4 working on linux it would look like any other DVB card to mythtTV
[16:45:04] wagnerrp: correct, but the cablecard tuner outputs encrypted content
[16:45:14] wagnerrp: decryption the output of a cablecard tuner would violate DMCA
[16:45:21] Kazan: no it doesn't
[16:45:27] wagnerrp: yes, it does
[16:45:52] Kazan: no, it doesn't. the tuner receives the encrypted stream, hands it to the cablecard, the cablecard decodes it, and then it hands that decoded stream to the driver

[16:46:18] wagnerrp: it decrypts the content from the cableco, then re-encrypts it to something else, and hands that off to the driver
[16:46:22] Kazan: even if it hands the coded stream to the driver, and then you hand it to the cablecard, the cablecard is an authorized decryption device
[16:46:32] Kazan: the Ceton does not
[16:46:47] Kazan: not according to everything i read
[16:46:48] wagnerrp: its encrypted in some form or another all the way to the TV
[16:46:58] Kazan: no. it isn't
[16:47:05] Kazan: the Ceton InfiniTV 4 is a PCI-Express board
[16:47:08] wagnerrp: as dictated by the Cable Labs licensing agreement
[16:47:09] sid3windr: then it can't be a certified cablecard device me thinks
[16:47:19] Kazan: sid3windr: it is
[16:47:54] Kazan: http://www.cetoncorp.com/products.php
[16:48:02] Kazan: quad stream m-card compatible PCI Express tuner
[16:48:07] wagnerrp: so what
[16:48:32] wagnerrp: you dont think the content stored by windows media center would sit on disk unencrypted do you?
[16:48:54] Kazan: true, it might not
[16:48:54] wagnerrp: it gets passed out of the card to the computer encrypted
[16:49:04] wagnerrp: in order to actually play the content
[16:49:21] Kazan: if it leverages the CAM to play the content then it is an authorized decoding
[16:49:36] Kazan: as long as you didn't store it unencrypted its an authorized usage
[16:50:04] Kazan: so if you "record encrypted stream from CARD" then "utilize CAM to unencrypt stream during playback" you are not circumventing a copy protection mechanism
[16:50:09] wagnerrp: it has to be passed back into the card, authorized for playback by the cableco, decrypted, and passed back out of the card through a secure tunnel to the video card
[16:50:13] Kazan: and even if you were it is likely to be a fair-use defendable use
[16:50:38] wagnerrp: fair use defends the individual, not the organization
[16:50:52] wagnerrp: users accessing their purchased content would be blameless
[16:50:54] Kazan: Sony would disagree
[16:51:00] Kazan: so would SCOTUS
[16:51:23] Kazan: so lon as the product has substantial non-infringing uses
[16:51:50] Kazan: and so long as you made the presence of the CAM required (aka the implementation conformed to cable lab's requirements) then you're not violating the DMCA
[16:51:52] wagnerrp: name a US based company violating DMCA
[16:52:08] Kazan: none, because Fair use is not considered a violation of the DMCA

[16:52:55] wagnerrp: no, they havent
[16:53:20] Kazan: does Tivo not still use linux?
[16:53:20] wagnerrp: the series 3 TiVos run linux, but the linux hardware never touches that video stream
[16:53:38] wagnerrp: storage, decryption, decoding.... all done in dedicated hardware inaccessible from linux
[16:54:03] Kazan: hmm
[16:54:16] Kazan: i still assert that it would be protected under safe habor as fair use. as you have paid for the content
[16:54:28] wagnerrp: the user would, yes
[16:54:30] Kazan: and the device you're using is a supported output device
[16:54:41] Kazan: especially since for that stream to be understandable by the TV it has to be an HDCP stream
[16:54:54] wagnerrp: there is no support for HDCP in linux
[16:55:16] Kazan: because nobody has implemented it
[16:55:18] wagnerrp: you cant make any of the open source or proprietary X11 drives activate HDCP
[16:55:25] wagnerrp: because theres no point to do so
[16:55:35] wagnerrp: because X11 itself is not a secure output protocol
[16:55:47] Kazan: um.. since when has that stopped us
[16:55:48] Kazan: DRI?
[16:56:06] Kazan: other workarounds of that nature
[16:56:26] Kazan: (of course.. X11 is a dead weight hanging around linux's neck, keeping it from better desktop adoption)
[16:56:58] Kazan: oh and if that stream on the tivo was innaccessable to the linux code, how exactly are their recordings being managed?
[16:57:01] Kazan: they have to be written to disk
[16:57:04] Kazan: and the operating system does that
[16:57:08] wagnerrp: the only way linux would ever be supported by cablelabs would be if one of the video card manufacturers added drivers that implemented the video decryption and decoding in the shader hardware
[16:57:31] wagnerrp: along with things in place to restrict access to the memory used
[16:57:53] wagnerrp: Kazan: linux just runs the UI, and issues commands to their proprietary firmware to do so
[16:58:04] Kazan: what managers the disk storage?
[16:58:07] Kazan: manages*
[16:58:14] Kazan: you cannot tell me their custom firmware manages the disk storage
[16:58:17] Kazan: that would be ridiculous
[16:58:20] wagnerrp: why?
[16:58:40] wagnerrp: even if it doesnt, linux never has access to the unencrypted content
[16:58:49] Kazan: that's what an operating system is for. you're essentially saying they have two computers in that box, mutually dependant, running separate operating systems
[16:58:59] Kazan: i don't care if it doesn't have access to the unencrypted content
[16:59:07] Kazan: so long as recordin and playback functions
[16:59:22] wagnerrp: now youre beginning to understand why cablecard itself is so rediculous
[16:59:33] Kazan: i understand why the cablecard is a complete and total end-run around the law
[16:59:38] wagnerrp: and why there are only a handful of devices actually authorized to use it
[16:59:49] Kazan: i understand why it doesn't serve the purpose that the law mandated it was supposed to do
[17:00:11] Kazan: i understand why they got away with it (cause congress is a bunch of old technologically inept people who are too willin to trust corporations to be honest)
[17:00:33] Kazan: what i don't accept is the assertion that "we cannot implement that on linux!" – because it's purely software. it's a software problem.
[17:00:47] wagnerrp: its a decryption problem, which is illegal
[17:00:50] Kazan: no it's not
[17:00:53] wagnerrp: yes, it is
[17:01:25] Kazan: no it's freaking not, not if you conform to the spec – which is not impossible, just requires some programming effort in video drivers mostly
[17:01:51] wagnerrp: conforming to the spec is outside of our control
[17:01:59] Kazan: now that is an accurate statement
[17:02:07] Kazan: it requires effort from teams other than simply mythTV
[17:02:26] wagnerrp: mythtv would either have to go closed source
[17:02:30] Kazan: no it wouldn't
[17:02:33] wagnerrp: or it could never touch that unencrypted content
[17:02:35] wagnerrp: one or the other
[17:03:28] Kazan: correct, it would never touch the unencrypted content. making educated inferences about how the Ceton InfiniTV 4 works you would be storing an HDCP stream. so you wouldn't get "preview", but you would get playback
[17:03:41] Kazan: so some features wouldn't work (commflag, transcode, etc) but you would have playback
[17:03:57] Kazan: time shifting, recording, playback, manual skipping, etc would all work
[17:04:03] wagnerrp: which puts it entirely in ATI/NVidia's court to implement
[17:04:20] wagnerrp: completely out of our control
[17:04:23] Kazan: it puts it in ATI/nVidias court to implement support for HDCP stream passthrough
[17:04:53] wagnerrp: HDCP only exists on the wire after the TMDS transmitter
[17:05:16] Kazan: so what on-disk crypto would they be using
[17:05:25] wagnerrp: no clue
[17:05:43] ** Kazan does some digging **
[17:05:48] Kazan: after i finish getting my channels mapped
[17:06:06] wagnerrp: either way, they would have to implement decryption and decoding in the video card, in a secure fashion

[17:07:12] wagnerrp: and then someone would have to shell out a large amount of money to CableLabs to get the whole thing authorized
[17:07:47] wagnerrp: there is no open spec to follow
[17:07:56] wagnerrp: you have to pay to license it
[17:08:01] Kazan: which is a problem. someone should sue them for failin to conform to the letter of the law.
[17:08:03] Kazan: but nobody will
[17:08:13] Kazan: nobody has even attempted to pursue proper enforcement of the law
[17:08:18] Kazan: because nobody interested has the money to do so
[17:08:27] wagnerrp: oh, im sure they very well conformed to the letter of the law
[17:08:35] AndyCap: Kazan: If you have a cam/cablecard you could just forgo the disk encryption and store the encrypted data. Which brings the added "benefit" of leaving you unable to play recordings if you cancel the subscription for that channel. :)
[17:08:41] wagnerrp: they just bypassed the spirit of it completely
[17:09:04] Kazan: AndyCap: i'm aware, which is what i was trying to explain to wagnerrp
[17:09:13] wagnerrp: AndyCap: recordings have to be passed through the tuner at time of playback anyway
[17:09:13] Kazan: AndyCap: its better than no playback at all
[17:09:28] Kazan: assuming how you think the card works is correct
[17:09:51] AndyCap: wagnerrp: well, the parts after the tuner anyway.
[17:10:07] AndyCap: depending on how large blocks one has on this fictional box.

[17:10:50] Kazan: AndyCap: the discussion is based off the existance of the Ceton InfiniTV 4
[17:11:08] Kazan: which is an m-card Cablecard compatible four stream tuner for Windows MCE 7
[17:11:24] AndyCap: Kazan: what of it?
[17:11:41] wagnerrp: my argument is that such a thing would never be supported under linux
[17:12:09] AndyCap: not on any non-tivoized linux anyway
[17:12:10] Kazan: AndyCap: i'm hoping someone gets it working in linux as a four head DVB card, and i'm hoping he might be wrong about how system works (though I would be suprised if it wasn't sorta right)
[17:12:51] AndyCap: Kazan: ah, yes, so the CableCard licensing guys, mpaa, and everyone else can come gunning for him?

[17:16:51] Kazan: just a theorectical discussion anyway
[17:17:06] Kazan: if the day ever comes where i need to use one of those cards, and linux cannot hack it, i'll switch to windows MCE 7
[17:17:39] AndyCap: Kazan: which is a perfectly viable solution

[17:17:58] wagnerrp: Kazan: or get one of these... http://mythtv.org/wiki/HDPVR
[17:18:11] wagnerrp: or one of a number of competing products that have not yet made it to market
[17:18:14] ** AndyCap can't really get excited about the HDPVR **
[17:18:15] Kazan: oh right.. the external hauppauge device
[17:18:42] Kazan: those cost $200/pop, the InfiniTV 4 is $400.. so Hauppauge needs to come down in price
[17:18:56] Kazan: and those HD PVRs only work so long as congress doesn't let the cartel close the analog hole
[17:19:08] Kazan: and don't you loose some quality going digital->analog->digital?
[17:19:27] wagnerrp: some, but people who have them claim its not noticeable
[17:19:34] wagnerrp: so long as you run it at full bandwidth
[17:20:25] Kazan: true
[17:20:41] Kazan: with MPEG2 and h.264 and a very short analog hop the lossage should be minimal
[17:21:09] Kazan: plus.. you don't REALLLY need 4 streams at once...
[17:21:20] wagnerrp: i do
[17:21:25] Kazan: even when i had three analog and one digital tuner in this syhstem the most id use at once was three
[17:21:36] Kazan: but there aren't enough good shows on these days for that to be a problem so much
[17:21:46] wagnerrp: ive legitimately had seven recordings going at once before
[17:21:58] wagnerrp: 5 recordings off my three digital tuners, plus another two off my two analog ones
[17:21:59] Kazan: holy frack.. wtf bbq?
[17:22:05] AndyCap: quite a difference between 1 component input and 1 digital multiplex
[17:22:05] Kazan: how does the HD-PVR connect to the system? USB2 is it?
[17:22:18] wagnerrp: yes, USB2.0
[17:22:44] Kazan: k
[17:22:59] Kazan: well.. enough theorectical iscussions.. i need to get some food and finish up this config

[17:24:45] wagnerrp: how much do i record per day?
[17:24:57] XLV: unless you are doing it for a household of 10
[17:25:36] wagnerrp: nearly all the shows i watch are during the same 3hr time span of 8pm-11pm
[17:25:54] wagnerrp: some days, all the major networks, and some cable networks are airing stuff i want to watch simultaneously

[18:01:20] Kazan: apparently it doesn't...
[18:01:27] Kazan: the channels i'm receiving are a hodge podge essentially
[18:01:42] wagnerrp: if theyre not in your lineup, file a ticket to SD to get they added
[18:02:09] Kazan: what i'm getting doesn't seem to be an actual "lineup" more of "channels we didn't bother to filter or encrypt".
[18:03:03] Kazan: my digital tuner is getting digital streams of some SD channels
[18:03:42] Kazan: can you have channels on one tuner coming from two "sources"?
[18:04:12] wagnerrp: no
[18:05:08] wagnerrp: if you can receive them, they should be listed in the lineup on SD
[18:06:24] Kazan: maybe i should use the digital cable source instead of the bcast source
[18:06:29] Kazan: i'll play with it later.. i gotta go for a while
[18:06:30] wagnerrp: yes
[18:07:01] wagnerrp: if your cable company is releasing 'digital transport adapters' for the purpose of shutting down analog cable
[18:07:26] wagnerrp: you may be able to receive all of the former analog cable channels digitally in standard definition
[18:08:00] wagnerrp: at least until such point as your local cable carrier receives their 'privacy mode' waiver from the FCC

[18:46:21] wagnerrp: the other alternative would be netflix setting up their own conditional access API that mythtv could hook into
[18:46:41] wagnerrp: but companies dont like conditional access, because it lets customers get their grubby little hands on the content they paid for

[22:09:38] sphery: I'm guessing he noticed the PM/topic after asking
[22:09:53] sphery: anyway, wagnerrp pretty much summed it up for you
[22:10:01] macavity: yup
[22:10:46] macavity: i didnt even know that hardware CAMs were available for normal PCs
[22:10:48] sphery: basically, even if it's not a violation of laws where you live, soft cam is almost definitely a violation of the service providers terms of service, so we don't support it
[22:11:01] sphery: you can only get hardware CAMs in some countries
[22:11:04] sphery: the US is not one of them
[22:11:13] wagnerrp: macavity: they usually come with the DVB-C/S card
[22:11:19] sphery: but in the US, any use of softcam is a felony offense--as well as a violation of ToS
[22:11:58] macavity: i gather that it is a hot potatoe... i just want to be sure that i dont blow a hole in my foot with a 6 month contract for a card only to find out it doesnt work
[22:12:14] wagnerrp: a contract for a tuner card?
[22:12:47] AndyCap: macavity: if the provider uses conax or viaccess you can buy a cam for the tuner card, if they use videoguard you're out of luck
[22:12:58] macavity: no, a content provider contract is 6 months minimum here in DK
[22:13:13] macavity: i have cable now, but we are moving soon, and were we are going we want satelite
[22:13:31] macavity: AndyCap: i gathered as much
[22:13:51] sphery: wagnerrp: out of curiosity, if you go to http://qt.nokia.com/developer/changes and click on 4.4.0 (specifically that one), does it load the page, then redirect you to some image/ad that eventually (after a long time) gives a blank page?
[22:13:56] macavity: that only rules out Viasat if i read the docs right
[22:14:17] AndyCap: macavity: and sky, depending on where you plan on moving
[22:14:25] sphery: macavity: the approved solution when CAM isn't an option is analog capture--using Hauppauge PVR-150 for standard definition or Hauppauge HD-PVR for high definition

[22:15:04] sphery: so, with analog as a fallback, you won't have to worry about being out of luck
[22:15:46] highzeth: macavity: your best bet would be Canal+, and as AndyCap said, Sky/FreeSat(depending on where in .dk you are moving)
[22:15:47] sphery: you will, however, need to buy/rent enough set-top-boxes to have one per channel you want to record/watch LiveTV at a time (and one analog capture card per channel...)
[22:15:51] macavity: i am still looking at tuner cards
[22:16:34] macavity: highzeth: why would it matter where in .dk i moved to?
[22:17:03] highzeth: for the sky/freesat reception mainly, size of dish/positioning/neighbours etc
[22:17:03] macavity: highzeth: i can get the dish to point at anything.. the sky is clear from east to west on that wall
[22:17:09] AndyCap: macavity: pick up free to air british transmission from Astra 2d with a reasonably sized dish

[22:19:59] highzeth: AndyCap: well, a t90 is borderline as-is, so yeah, gotta be helluva ideal conditions then ;)
[22:20:08] macavity: AndyCap: nice.. and yes, the 108cm should do just nicely
[22:20:49] AndyCap: macavity: planning on using a motor then?
[22:21:37] macavity: i hope not
[22:21:40] AndyCap: highzeth: heh, only for 2d though, worked fine for the more eurocentric beams on 28.2E
[22:21:44] macavity: better use two dishes then
[22:22:12] macavity: its not like the dishes and the heads are going to be a signifigant part of the total cost anyhow
[22:22:12] highzeth: AndyCap: sure, even the northern beam on astra might be a go, its the southern goodies that might be a stretch
[22:22:35] AndyCap: highzeth: yeah, no 2D for me.
[22:23:35] highzeth: I did get the northern beam with our 1.5m motorized dish, but had to jump up a size to get a stable lock on the southern
[22:24:31] highzeth: and mark my words, I will never, ever setup another prime focus dish. ohhh my

[22:40:36] macavity: hmm.. i just found an article that says it is intirely possible to get Videoguard working with a combination of a hardware CAM and some funky kernel module
[22:41:25] macavity: this one: http://omcentre.com.au/Getting-Pay-TV-to-Work . . . V.102.0.html
[22:41:49] macavity: or is that guy out on a limb wrt the legal matters?
[22:42:12] sphery: best bet would be to ask your service provider :)
[22:42:18] sphery: (or your lawyer :)
[22:43:14] macavity: meh.. i think i will take the chance that if i use their card as the reciving end, and my TV as the displaying end.. then what happens in between is none of their concern
[22:43:41] sphery: I'm thinking--based on some of the words in there--that's basically softcam/card sharing stuff, but with the "providing [sic] you have a subscription" so he can claim otherwise :)
[22:44:07] sphery: if you take that standpoint, though, please don't discuss it here
[22:44:28] macavity: i am new to all this.. but the way i read it i still need the card to be in some kind of reader hooked to the machine, right?
[22:44:36] sphery: ok, after scrolling down, it's definite--what he's doing is not allowed for discussion here
[22:46:03] sphery: the fact that he's using a card reader and programmer should make it pretty obvious that it's not one of the things your provider wants you to do
[22:47:03] macavity: since i havent picked a provider yet, i am still in the clear
[22:48:31] macavity: that is, short of the fact that i already have to bruteforce DVD keys (which is not legal in the EU) to watch the film i buy...
[22:51:01] macavity: but anyway, just to be clear on the terminology here
[22:51:31] macavity: a "hardware CAM" is the legal version of a "card reader"?
[22:52:51] sphery: it's a conditional access module--it's the whole package and does everything including the decryption
[22:53:21] sphery: if decryption is done anywhere else (other than in a set-top-box or a hardware CAM), we don't support it
[22:53:22] macavity: that is, the kind of stuff that haupage gets to ship with their decoders, because they have a deal with whomever appropriate?
[22:53:22] AndyCap: macavity: no.
[22:53:22] AndyCap: macavity: a hardware cam takes in the stream and hands out decrypted data.
[22:53:22] macavity: as opposed to some DIY/shady stuff to fool cards into thinking they are in a hardware box
[22:53:23] AndyCap: macavity: so the hardware cam makes sure you don't get your hands on the encryption keys, which the software doesn't
[22:53:47] sphery: much better explanation than mine--thanks
[22:54:53] macavity: ok, i think i understand the difference now
[22:55:39] AndyCap: the long version: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conditional_Access_Module
[22:56:23] ** AndyCap wouldn't complain if the pcmcia and CI stacks merged completely. :P **
[22:57:07] macavity: in the above article the keys are extracted from the card somehow, then the CPU does the decoding, and that kernel module thingie makes a fake DVB-S card node entry in /dev/ that makes it all look like the signal wasnt even encrypted in the first place?
[22:57:29] macavity: ... i can see why that is clearly not legal under any circomstances

[23:08:08] ekristen: I've never seen this error before
[23:08:27] sphery: ekristen: however, you /really/ should upgrade to either a) a -fixes version (0.22-fixes, not the broken pre-release 0.22 version that ships with your distro) or b) the /current/ version's -fixes branch (0.23-fixes)
[23:08:36] sphery: ekristen: http://www.mythbuntu.org/auto-builds
[23:08:56] sphery: ideally you'd go to 0.23-fixes, but even if you just go to 0.22-fixes, there's a much better chance that things will work
[23:09:12] ekristen: I am running 22-fixes as far I know
[23:09:20] ekristen: sphery — I would love to use mythbuntu — put 10.04 doesn't see my hard drives for some reason
[23:09:29] sphery: no, you're running the pre-release version of 0.22-fixes that shipped with 9.10
[23:09:30] ekristen: so I am stuck on 9.10 of ubuntu right now
[23:09:38] ekristen: ah gotcha
[23:09:38] sphery: it's before 0.22 was even released
[23:10:01] sphery: from the auto-builds, though, you can select 0.22-fixes /or/ 0.23-fixes (even for 9.10)
[23:10:08] sphery: (I'm pretty sure)
[23:10:12] ekristen: let me look
[23:10:44] macavity: AndyCap: ok.. ill have to look a bit more into all of this then
[23:10:49] AndyCap: macavity: a card like this http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/NetUP_Dual_DVB_S2_CI sounds promising, but it's expensive and hard to find from what I've heard.
[23:12:40] highzeth: expensive yeah, and they made a very small amount of their first batch
[23:12:42] macavity: ok, that looks nice
[23:12:57] macavity: the dual part is not critical

[23:14:55] AndyCap: macavity: this http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/TechnoTrend_TT-budget_S-1500 should be decent, but only DVB-S (or DVB-C for C-1500) and not DVB-S2
[23:16:13] AndyCap: macavity: and usb CI slot solutions like this http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/site/products/data_ci.html won't work on linux.
[23:18:44] macavity: hmmm...
[23:19:04] macavity: i should rather like DVB-S2 from what i am reading now...
[23:19:31] macavity: no idea in having a big a** TV and no HD content :P
[23:19:50] AndyCap: if you're allowed HD content with a CAM that is.

[23:36:11] ekristen: are there any good hd capture cards that support the encryption cards from cable companies that work on linux with mythtv these days?
[23:37:23] Beirdo: !url tuners
[23:37:23] MythLogBot: tuners: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hardwar . . . _Information
[23:37:24] highzeth: AndyCap: they made 200pcs of that netup card, not sure if they made more than one batch =)

[23:47:18] Beirdo: not sure, you'd have to read and find out
[23:47:26] ekristen: understood
[23:47:42] Beirdo: but that's basically the canonical list of what works well with Linux
[23:47:55] Beirdo: so, if it's not there, there's little chance that it will work
[23:48:33] Beirdo: unless of course, the card is basically the same as another card, close enough that the same drivers will work
[23:48:48] Beirdo: there's likely some cablecard tuners there, I dunno though
[23:49:28] ekristen: makes sense — I've been away from myth for several months — trying to get caught back up — my mythbackend hardware died, finally got it replaced and trying to get it back up and running now
[23:49:50] Beirdo: cool :)
[23:50:05] Beirdo: welcome back... I'll be gearing up myself again pretty soon

[23:51:52] iamlindoro: in that case you probably want to ask in #linuxtv since we don't generally do troubleshooting for third party software here
[23:52:08] iamlindoro: We really only have the expertise to support MythTV

[23:58:09] saftsack: http://cloud.github.com/downloads/MarcT/mt-mythtv/mt-mythtv.xml there is no ip in it
[23:58:37] Beirdo: maybe you should ask him?
[23:58:53] iamlindoro: why would it need an IP?
[23:58:57] iamlindoro: it has a git URL
