I am trying to reinstall the driver for a hauppauge 2250 and having trouble with this line in the process "hg clone http://kernellabs.com/hg/saa7164-stable/"

[01:35:15]

ericwait:

Any Ideas?

[01:35:33]

wagnerrp:

you have to give us more to go on

[01:35:53]

ericwait:

using this guide http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV-HVR-2200

[01:35:59]

wagnerrp:

uh huh

[01:36:21]

ericwait:

it says that this is where to get the stable release

[01:36:26]

wagnerrp:

yes...

i am getting a timeout error.

[01:37:11]

wagnerrp:

seems the site is down

[01:38:19]

ericwait:

that was what I was thinking. is there an alternate way of installing the driver? I thought that this card was supported by 4vl?

[01:38:33]

wagnerrp:

no, its supported by dvb

[01:38:59]

ericwait:

so kernellabs is the only repository?

[01:39:00]

wagnerrp:

v4l is the project for analog capture on linux

[01:39:06]

wagnerrp:

dvb is the one for digital tuning

[01:41:45]

wagnerrp:

i thought the driver had made it into the mainline kernel by now

[01:41:49]

wagnerrp:

but i dont see when that happened

[01:42:05]

ericwait:

I have done this once before but I am guessing that my headers were updated and that is why it is not working again.

[01:42:19]

wagnerrp:

ah, 2.6.32

[01:43:29]

ericwait:

what does hg clone ... do?

[01:43:42]

wagnerrp:

clone the hg (mercurial) repository

[01:44:17]

ericwait:

so if I have done it before, that doesn't get me anywhere if the repository is down?

[01:44:17]

wagnerrp:

basically, it just pulls down a local copy off the repository

[01:44:22]

ericwait:

ah

[01:44:24]

wagnerrp:

correct

[01:44:41]

wagnerrp:

you might want to ask in #linuxtv what is going on with that site

[01:44:49]

ericwait:

would i have an old copy of the repository?

[01:44:50]

wagnerrp:

i know several of their developers use that site

[01:45:02]

wagnerrp:

have you ever run that command before?

[01:45:17]

ericwait:

yes, i believe so

[01:45:39]

wagnerrp:

then unless youve deleted it, you should have that cloned directory where ever you ran that command

Hello – I would like to have mythtv run its scheduler less often than the default 5 minues. (or other tasks that instigate the "Reschedule requested for id -1" message).

[02:21:30]

cheriff:

does anyone know what these cause might be, and how i can configure them?

[02:23:15]

kormoc:

You can't configure it

[02:23:18]

kormoc:

it runs when it needs to

[02:23:30]

cheriff:

(background: this burst of activity on both mythbackend.log and various mysql files [mostly eit_cache.MYI but also program and recordmatch] are the last bursts of hdd activity on an otherwise idle hdd

[02:23:39]

cheriff:

every 5 mins?

[02:23:46]

kormoc:

that depends on how you use it

[02:23:59]

wagnerrp:

didnt i explain that in the other channel?

[02:24:00]

kormoc:

it has to run after every completed recording, after you update a schedule

[02:24:12]

sphery:

for EIT users it runs every 5 mins

[02:24:16]

sphery:

when updating EIT

[02:24:24]

sphery:

so don't use EIT and it won't run every 5 mins

[02:24:35]

rhollan:

kormoc: thought you'd like to know the change worked as expected through the public internet

[02:24:49]

kormoc:

snaz

[02:24:50]

cheriff:

ok thanks. I get thats its background house keeping, i just figured there might've been an option to sync the eit on a less frequent schedule, is all.

[02:24:59]

** wagnerrp thought all internet was public **

[02:25:18]

[R]:

wagnerrp: when i was in school i had a librarian tell me about the secret internets

[02:25:21]

rhollan:

... at least for Firefox. In IE, the hyperlink to get the .m3u content sent is a dummy #. Dunno why and I don't expect a fix.

[02:25:39]

wagnerrp:

if its secret and isolated, wouldnt that make it an intranet?

[02:26:27]

[R]:

she was talking about lexus nexus and stuff

[02:27:11]

kormoc:

I miss Lex

[02:27:12]

wagnerrp:

that place is pretty close to me

[02:27:31]

rhollan:

I miss Lexx

[02:27:48]

wagnerrp:

i found Lexx disturbing... so disturbing...

[02:27:51]

rhollan:

So, Eva Haberman or Xenia Seaberg?

[02:28:05]

sphery:

cheriff: http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/5754 , but the attached patch(es) is not the solution that will go in

[02:28:33]

wagnerrp:

why would EIT run every 5 minutes?

[02:28:45]

** rhollan is doing something dangerous: reading about WPA2/EAP-TLS and FreeRadius while sipping wine. **

[02:28:45]

kormoc:

Xenia

[02:29:06]

sphery:

EIT runs when it runs, but it runs the scheduler every 5 mins when making changes to listings so it actually records what needs recording

[02:29:08]

wagnerrp:

why is that dangerous?

[02:29:24]

wagnerrp:

rhollan: you have hardware that supports that authentication mechanism?

[02:29:39]

rhollan:

wagnerrp: Netgear WNDR3700 on the AP side

[02:29:52]

wagnerrp:

usually [L]EAP and Radius are only supported on higher end client hardware

[02:29:55]

rhollan:

anything that supports wpa-supplicatant on the client side.

[02:30:20]

[R]:

i have crap hardware and it supports radius...

[02:30:27]

rhollan:

I once had an Airlink 101 cheapee 802.11n router that handled Radius

wagnerrp:

http://gizmodo.com/5591140/

[02:34:54]

rhollan:

other than porn?

[02:35:31]

kormoc:

wagnerrp, that's pretty nice actually

[02:35:43]

wagnerrp:

i know, thats amazing

[02:35:47]

rhollan:

another use would be side by side displays in general

[02:36:01]

sphery:

wagnerrp: ok, better than 3D itself

[02:36:17]

[R]:

but then other peopel cant watch!

[02:36:28]

wagnerrp:

sure they can, with glasses

[02:36:38]

wagnerrp:

linear polarized glasses are cheap

[02:36:49]

kormoc:

[R], use normal 3d glasses! see both at once!

[02:36:54]

rhollan:

I've read that fake 3D really destroys vision, particularly for kids, and the research is being surpressed. Remember all those warnings a while ago about immersion goggles?

[02:37:26]

sphery:

of course, MS has no need to do similarly--as none of the XBox games have much of any support for split-screen multiplayer, instead concentrating almost exclusively on XBL

[02:37:27]

wagnerrp:

rhollan: apparently sega was developing 3D tech with shutter glasses in the mid 90s

[02:37:32]

kormoc:

oh boy, 3d video conspiracy theater

[02:37:45]

wagnerrp:

but dropped it because of such issues with damaging normal stereoscopic vision

[02:38:12]

rhollan:

right, wagnerrp. That's what I was thinking of.

[02:38:16]

sphery:

what's an immersion goggle?

[02:38:20]

rhollan:

Dunno if the fearmongering is warranted though.

[02:38:37]

rhollan:

goggles with LCD displays for each eye.

[02:38:37]

sphery:

I don't fear it. I loathe it.

[02:38:41]

wagnerrp:

big dual-display headsets?

[02:38:47]

sphery:

oh

[02:39:00]

kormoc:

anytime I hear of research being suppressed, I ignore it entirely

[02:39:03]

sphery:

I was thinking they were the ones you wear in the swimming pool.

[02:39:06]

sphery:

;)

[02:39:17]

kormoc:

not funding a path of research privately != suppression of research

[02:39:48]

sphery:

kormoc: There was a study that said that over 37% of research is suppressed. Unfortunately, the government stopped them from publishing the report.

[02:40:01]

kormoc:

Oh noes!

[02:40:03]

rhollan:

kormoc: yeah, I know. But, if your research demonstrates something bad for people and others start going down that same route, perhaps one should share what one has discovered.

[02:40:05]

wagnerrp:

apple is supressing research find that the iPhone 4's antenna gap causes sterility

[02:40:05]

** kormoc gets a tin foil hat **

[02:40:27]

sphery:

wagnerrp: only if you actually bridge the gap with your bare skin

[02:40:30]

I have all the kids I want, More bars, please!

[02:40:43]

sphery:

[02:41:10]

sphery:

hhe

[02:42:08]

kormoc:

you guys seen the area 51 Penn and Teller's bullsh*t episode?

[02:42:19]

sphery:

no, but now I have to

[02:42:25]

kormoc:

it's pretty awesome

[02:42:29]

[R]:

wagnerrp: haha

[02:42:38]

rhollan:

I want the military version of http://www.wickedlasers.com/lasers/Spyder_III . . . s-96-37.html

[02:42:46]

sphery:

I liked their one on cursing

[02:43:04]

sphery:

aren't they getting sued by Lucas?

[02:43:06]

rhollan:

The Arctic emits a 445nm cool blue, ultra high power 1W beam

[02:43:10]

thing is Wicked Lasers never called it a lightsaber

[02:44:14]

rhollan:

others did

[02:44:26]

kormoc:

until I can stop one with another, it's no lightsaver

[02:44:29]

kormoc:

*saber

[02:44:34]

wagnerrp:

no, and apparently they replied to lucas, basically telling him to pound sand

[02:45:03]

sphery:

I prefer to be disappointed in the order that which George Lucas intended.

[02:45:11]

rhollan:

I want one.... and the +4 O.D. safety glasses.

[02:45:30]

rhollan:

two pair show I can show others.

[02:45:31]

wagnerrp:

seriously, what would you do with it? burn ants?

[02:45:39]

rhollan:

burn flesh

[02:45:43]

sphery:

lightsaver... is that the fruit-flavored candy in a ring shape made with sucralose instead of sugar?

[02:45:58]

wagnerrp:

its not reliable for any real scientific purposes

[02:46:14]

wagnerrp:

its way way over spec as a sky pointer

[02:46:17]

rhollan:

yeah, the modes aren't all that clean beyond about 100 mW

[02:46:24]

kormoc:

note to self, never go in the same state as rhollan

[02:46:27]

wagnerrp:

and its illegal as a normal laser pointer

[02:46:46]

sphery:

and DHS will find you if you point at airplanes with it

[02:47:07]

rhollan:

But, it can be used with mirrors and sensors as a very visable permimiter trespass detection system.

[02:47:34]

kormoc:

it's less of a detection system and more of a maiming system

[02:47:43]

wagnerrp:

sure, but if anyone crosses it, anyone looking at them nearby is blinded

[02:47:50]

sphery:

but mythbusters proved that lasers are a terrible way of doing security

[02:47:51]

rhollan:

Personally, I thought of mounting one in the back of my car with a rotating mirror for when the local constabulary tries to pull me over for speeding..... not (but one can dream!)

[02:48:05]

wagnerrp:

thats a felony

[02:48:11]

I donno, I see that as more of a justified shooting then a felony

[02:50:07]

rhollan:

shooting?

[02:50:32]

rhollan:

Look, the way I figure it, no judge is going to believe I blinded the cop with a "death ray".

[02:50:42]

wagnerrp:

and the dozens of innocent people blinded by back scatter (including yourself if you dont cover the rear view mirror), as well as the resulting multi-car pile up

[02:50:54]

rhollan:

collateral damage.

[02:50:56]

kormoc:

if I was that cop, I'd be shooting you

[02:51:04]

rhollan:

Should have gotten out of the way when they saw the cop.

[02:51:17]

kormoc:

and I'd be telling everyone else over the radio that you're armed, dangerous and to shoot on sight

[02:51:31]

rhollan:

Armed? It is not listed as a weapon.

[02:51:36]

kormoc:

doesn't matter

[02:51:56]

kormoc:

you used it *as* a weapon, thus you are armed

[02:52:16]

rhollan:

No. I used it as a "tailgating rangefinder".

[02:52:19]

wagnerrp:

you could be holding a spork, and considered armed with a deadly weapon

[02:52:49]

kormoc:

this is a stupid path to continue arguing about

[02:52:59]

rhollan:

And "shoot on sight" violates most civilian police department ROA.

[02:53:07]

rhollan:

Sure, I am playing Devi's Advocate.

[02:53:19]

rhollan:

But the device is real, and available, and someone is going to be a dubbshit.

[02:53:24]

rhollan:

dumbshit.

[02:53:29]

kormoc:

language....

[02:53:54]

rhollan:

I still want one. For the OMG factor.

[02:54:18]

wagnerrp:

thats like wanting an anti-tank mine for the OMG factor

[02:54:49]

wagnerrp:

except its something youre more likely to want to use

[02:55:13]

rhollan:

sure, and I use a circular saw frequently. Imagine what that could do to someone's throat.

[02:55:19]

rhollan:

Of course, the laser is dangerous.

[02:55:35]

wagnerrp:

but the laser has no reasonable use

[02:55:44]

wagnerrp:

there is no constructive purpose for it

[02:55:46]

rhollan:

I wouldn't light it up full power without everyone wearing appropriate glasses.

[02:55:54]

rhollan:

A tech demo?

[02:56:03]

wagnerrp:

demo of what?

[02:56:12]

rhollan:

laser tech advancement.

[02:56:22]

wagnerrp:

its too low power to be of any commercial use

[02:56:22]

rhollan:

And, actually, 24 of them are used in a portable laser projector.

[02:56:23]

kormoc:

wagnerrp, he's not gonna stop

[02:56:30]

wagnerrp:

its too imprecise to be of scientific use

Q: does mythweb send different html based on user agent?

[02:59:57]

wagnerrp:

yes

[03:00:37]

rhollan:

I find mythmusic just sends # hyperlinks on music links with IE. Is that a known bug

[03:00:45]

kormoc:

no

[03:01:18]

wagnerrp:

it only sends out a special page for the mobile user agents

[03:01:30]

rhollan:

is the php code for mythmusic under mythweb all under /usr/share/mythtv/mythmusic?

[03:02:00]

wagnerrp:

mythweb doesnt store anything there

[03:02:52]

wagnerrp:

anything in $PREFIX/share/mythtv is going to be stored there by mythtv or the individual plugins themselves

O.K. I just wanted to know if the mythmusic web interface was all in one place. I can look there to see if there is any user-agent specific stuff

[03:07:18]

rhollan:

I also should try without kormoc's recent change, though I doubt that will make a difference.

[03:08:00]

wagnerrp:

the UA stuff only controls which template is used

[03:08:11]

wagnerrp:

or specifically, normal or ipod mode

[03:08:34]

rhollan:

Hmm. Then the IE vs. Firefox behavior is odd.

[03:09:00]

wagnerrp:

it may simply be that it uses web standards that IE does not support properly

[03:09:02]

rhollan:

I'm going to have to dig deper

[03:09:10]

wagnerrp:

upgrade your IE

[03:09:28]

rhollan:

I can try with IE 8 tonight.

[03:09:49]

(or use firefox, or safari, or chrome, or opera, or konqueror, or nautilus, or mythbrowser, or...)

mythtv's web browser

Oh! Now I remember.

[03:18:47]

mythtv has a web browser... named mythbrowser

Lexridge:

Hi all. Does anyone know if XBMC works with mythtv 0.23?

[04:35:03]

[R]:

"with"?

[04:35:11]

[R]:

i belive there is a myth like plugin or soething with it

[04:35:16]

[R]:

but it was pretty crappy the last time i checked

[04:35:21]

kormoc:

Unlikely that'd we know and we try to not support it as they don't support our protocol correctly

[04:35:22]

wagnerrp:

you can have the both installed on the same computer, if thats what you mean

[04:35:38]

wagnerrp:

you can adjust each's menus to open the other

[04:35:40]

Lexridge:

humm, interesting.

[04:36:03]

wagnerrp:

but correct, we do not support or condone the use of the 'mythbox' plugin

[04:36:20]

[R]:

condone

[04:36:21]

[R]:

haha

[04:36:22]

wagnerrp:

not until they start doing proper schema checking before dicking with the database

[04:36:23]

[R]:

its like its an illegal drug

[04:36:24]

Lexridge:

Well, xbmc seems like a rather cool project. Shame it doesnt support mythtv better

[04:36:36]

Lexridge:

I was wondering about the schema checking

[04:37:19]

wagnerrp:

it /does/ implement proper protocol checking for data access, but not for streaming video

[04:37:20]

Lexridge:

I cannot even make it connect to mythbackend 23

[04:37:38]

Lexridge:

but I have not apparently installed the mythbox plugin either.

[04:37:48]

Lexridge:

which would explain it.

[04:37:48]

wagnerrp:

how recent is your backend?

[04:37:49]

rhollan:

that IS playing not nice by them in the interest of lazyness

[04:37:55]

wagnerrp:

the last couple days?

[04:37:59]

Lexridge:

backend was rebuilt yesterday from fixes

[04:38:21]

wagnerrp:

yeah, your backend is version 23056... which probably horribly confuses them

[04:38:29]

wagnerrp:

rather protocol version

[04:38:30]

Lexridge:

yea, I think you are right

[04:38:42]

wagnerrp:

where as trunk is currently version 58

[04:39:06]

Lexridge:

I am just having so many issues with my mythfrontend, I was hoping xbmc would work for me instead.

[04:39:16]

wagnerrp:

i /know/ mythbox will not handle that, because it actually does do protocol checking

[04:39:29]

wagnerrp:

but i dont know what the built in streaming support in xbmc would do

[04:39:41]

wagnerrp:

what issues is the frontend having?

[04:40:18]

Lexridge:

Very strange issues. I have discussed them here before. It takes anywhere from 2–20 minutes for live video to start, in example

[04:40:32]

Lexridge:

or recorded video too.

[04:40:49]

Lexridge:

and sometimes it even takes many minutes for the frontend to show me the menu.

[04:41:10]

Lexridge:

this all started with 0.23

[04:41:19]

wagnerrp:

something horribly wrong going on there

[04:41:28]

wagnerrp:

waiting on a timeout of something

[04:41:28]

Lexridge:

yea, tell me about it

[04:41:29]

kormoc:

opengl painter or qt painter?

[04:41:48]

Lexridge:

I have tried every such setting. Nothing makes any difference whatsoever.

[04:41:57]

kormoc:

strace -ff mythfrontend

[04:42:02]

kormoc:

run it via that, see what it's waiting on

[04:42:03]

wagnerrp:

mythfrontend -O ThemePainter=qt

[04:42:25]

Lexridge:

okay, I will try those things

[04:42:26]

Lexridge:

hang on

[04:42:47]

wagnerrp:

and change your playback profile to 'slim

[04:43:33]

Lexridge:

I'm running slim presently

[04:43:40]

wagnerrp:

unaltered?

[04:43:57]

Lexridge:

strace -ff just seems to forget everything....as if its the first time running it

[04:44:09]

Lexridge:

yes, unaltered

[04:44:50]

Lexridge:

thempainter=qt made the menu open much faster

[04:44:58]

Lexridge:

but that COULD be a fluke

[04:45:18]

kormoc:

much faster being usable?

[04:45:44]

kormoc:

could just be your opengl drivers are busted

[04:45:46]

Lexridge:

It still is hanging on watching live or recording however

[04:45:59]

Lexridge:

kormoc: How could that happen?

[04:46:02]

kormoc:

bet you have opengl vsync for your video timing enabled

[04:46:13]

kormoc:

a million ways? People seem to do it every day or two in here

[04:46:16]

Lexridge:

I think I do, actually....but I did not at first

[04:46:27]

Lexridge:

opengl vsync, that is

[04:46:30]

kormoc:

turn off opengl vsync and make sure your osd is not opengl rendered

[04:46:38]

Lexridge:

okay

[04:46:43]

kormoc:

(make sure it's all not opengl in your display profile)

[04:46:50]

Lexridge:

here is the odd thing.

[04:46:55]

Lexridge:

this is dual monitor system

[04:47:08]

kormoc:

so?

[04:47:21]

Lexridge:

When I go the the x-session that is NOT running mythfrontend, and open a program (ie Firefox), LiveTV starts

[04:47:21]

kormoc:

xinerama/dual x screens has nothing to do with opengl :)

[04:47:29]

kormoc:

huh

[04:47:36]

Lexridge:

strange eh!

[04:47:38]

kormoc:

nvidia, nv, ati, rage?

[04:47:40]

wagnerrp:

well often xinerama will break opengl

[04:47:42]

Lexridge:

nvidia

[04:47:50]

Lexridge:

I am not using xinerama

[04:47:54]

kormoc:

desktop spanning?

[04:47:56]

Lexridge:

just dual x-sessions

[04:48:11]

kormoc:

pastebin glxinfo when run in the broken screen

[04:48:14]

wagnerrp:

full sessions? or separate screens?

[04:48:27]

Lexridge:

seperate x sessions

[04:48:28]

wagnerrp:

is glxgears smooth?

[04:48:30]

kormoc:

:0.0 and :0.1 or :0.0 and :1.0

[04:48:34]

kormoc:

ahh

[04:48:36]

Lexridge:

yes, glxgears is smooth on both monitors

[04:48:47]

kormoc:

yeah, you have no opengl direct rendering if they're seperate sessions

[04:49:06]

kormoc:

glxgears is smooth on cpu rendering these days :)

[04:49:19]

Lexridge:

so what are you saying?

[04:49:29]

kormoc:

turn off all opengl stuff and it should work

[04:49:33]

wagnerrp:

oh? cant say ive actually run it on anything more recent than my ancient laptop

[04:49:43]

kormoc:

or switch to screen based split screens

[04:49:46]

Lexridge:

in nvidia settings, or mythfrontend?

[04:49:53]

kormoc:

mythfrontend

[04:50:02]

Lexridge:

okay, I'll try that

[04:50:31]

Lexridge:

this time, on startup, using the painter=qt, it is hanging on the menu.

[04:50:56]

kormoc:

strace

[04:51:01]

kormoc:

see what it's hanging on :)

[04:51:32]

Lexridge:

of course, it worked instantly the second time, with strace

[04:52:08]

Lexridge:

okay, just turned off the OpenGL Vertical sync timing

[04:52:37]

Lexridge:

I am still set to SLIM

[04:53:05]

kormoc:

just verify that nothing in it is opengl

[04:53:13]

Lexridge:

ok

[04:53:26]

kormoc:

or any direct rendering (vdpau, framebuffer)

[04:53:54]

Lexridge:

everything is xv-blit

[04:54:31]

Lexridge:

now trying livetv again

[04:55:18]

Lexridge:

same thing. The verbose is only showing me TV: DrawUnusedRects() — begin and alternating with --end

[04:56:09]

Lexridge:

I'm thinking something might be left over from an earlier installation that is fscking with things.

[04:56:54]

Lexridge:

oh, my my old Gforce 6800 does not support vdpau :(

[04:57:10]

wagnerrp:

ive got one of those

[04:57:21]

wagnerrp:

fan gave out a while back

[04:57:28]

Lexridge:

it's been a great card. Fan even still works lol

[04:58:03]

wagnerrp:

i thought so, four years ago

[04:58:17]

Lexridge:

This is a fedora 8 machine, I need to just update, but the newer KDE 4 does NOT support separate X-sessions yet, which is a serious drawback for me

[04:58:27]

wagnerrp:

:)

[04:58:55]

Lexridge:

and I HATE gnome

[04:59:29]

Lexridge:

I could always run gnome on the 24" myth montor, and KDE on my main monitor I guess

[04:59:49]

wagnerrp:

personally, ive never liked the menu in kde

[05:00:13]

Lexridge:

do you mean the "K" menu?

[05:00:29]

wagnerrp:

the fact that it doesnt branch, and even worse that i dont control the menu, or use it enough to know where things are

[05:01:01]

wagnerrp:

opening subfolders within the same frame is a horrible design

[05:01:13]

Lexridge:

I dont really use the menu either. I mostly start programs via a shell. lol

[05:01:20]

Lexridge:

or a desktop icon

[05:01:28]

wagnerrp:

if i knew what to search for, i would have disabled that on my windows machine

[05:02:10]

Lexridge:

The problem I am having, however rare, is happening to others. I spent a good three days googling for it, and all the people that were having it, none were resolved.

[05:02:46]

Lexridge:

some unique is going on somewhere with very few systems, including mine apparently

[05:02:53]

Lexridge:

something, that is

[05:03:36]

Lexridge:

It has been hanging now for, oh....8 minutes. However, if I start up firefox, it will start livetv

[05:03:45]

Lexridge:

and it did!!!

[05:03:50]

Lexridge:

WTF?

[05:04:53]

Lexridge:

I cannot even fathom where the commonality would be there.

[05:05:47]

wagnerrp:

some weird X value its waiting on

[05:05:54]

wagnerrp:

starting up another program cleared the lock

[05:06:06]

Lexridge:

perhaps

[05:06:53]

Lexridge:

I'm running a very old xorg. 7.3

Looking for suggestions on how to debug/tune for mildly choppy video on front end. Running Fedora 13 with Mythtv 0.23 on each – backend on beefy server, front ends on beefy laptops (dual core, 3 Ghz). Gig-E ethernet. CPU never goes over 60% on either.

[12:13:03]

wagnerrp:

hopefully something other than Pentium D chips?

[12:14:14]

rossand:

T7800 on lappy, server is in fact a pentium D. Good guess?

[12:14:38]

a P-D is not what one would consider 'beefy'

[12:14:59]

wagnerrp:

but it doesnt matter, would be plenty for mythtv's recording and streaming needs

[12:15:20]

wagnerrp:

would be a bit light for commflagging of HD content, definitely light for any transcoding you may want to do

[12:15:22]

Dual core 3.0 Ghz. Yeah, not being a limiting factor was my point.

It's strange that it doesn't just works after installing the driver. Can it have something to do with hat I've replaced the motherboard from a cheaper model that dosn't include a remote control – So it don't have IR?

[13:29:53]

LouisDK:

*that

[13:32:36]

justinh:

it's not strange at all

[13:33:18]

justinh:

lirc & apps which use lirc very much rely on appropriate config files being provided to ensure IR codes are correctly translated into button actions for an application

[13:33:53]

justinh:

the driver being loaded gives you just about only one thing – a working lirc device node which the lirc daemon can monitor

[13:34:18]

simply loading the driver alone will not 'just make lirc work'

if irw produces no output at all, try the command mode2

then when you press buttons on the remote it should at least spew something out. if you get nothing from mode2 then your hardware.conf file is misconfigured

I've now rebooted into the Mythbuntu OS and replaced the hwd conf from the working Ubuntu. irw says "connect: No such file or directory" and the tried to cat the remote device /etc/lirc0 (found in the hwd conf): cat: /etc/lirc0: No such file or directory

[14:33:41]

LouisDK:

Should I boot into the Ubuntu live USB again and copy the lircd.conf?

[14:37:49]

LouisDK:

The 32 live-ubuntu runs kernel 2.6.32–21. The 64 mythbuntu runs kernel 2.6.32–21. Would that have something to say?

[14:38:34]

LouisDK:

I thin since it works on the live-ubuntu maybe some updates or me broke it in mythbuntu?

I want to move my videos directory to put it on another disk (Fedora 13), which means a different mount point. Is there a procedure? Or is this just a matter of changing the back end directory for the videos and moving the files?

[14:50:33]

LouisDK:

Orignal file says: LOAD_MODULES="no" and it file from the livecd says: LOAD_MODULES="yes". Maybe that just it can after a reboot with the "yes" if would work?

wagnerrp:

if they are in the same relative path in a different directory, it will find them immediately

[14:55:00]

wagnerrp:

if they are in a different relative path, or different filename, you will have to rescan in mythvideo and let it pick up the file through the hash mechanism

[16:58:02]

gbee:

we delete the odd individual setting in places, but never the whole table

[16:58:40]

gbee:

and the deletion from videodisplayprofiles is normal, it's treated as a temporary table

[16:59:03]

gbee:

and clearing inuseprograms when a frontend has gone away is again normal

[16:59:36]

kormoc:

Thus some awesome mailing list or ticket?

[16:59:47]

wagnerrp:

regardless, whatever anomalous behavior he thinks hes experiencing is likely due to having a hostname set as his backend IP

[16:59:50]

wagnerrp:

kormoc: ticket

[16:59:50]

gbee:

so really I don't see what that guy is complaining about, if he's continually losing settings then it's a mysql bug or even corruption on a bad drive

[17:01:01]

wagnerrp:

i know i had thought through this previously, and had a good reason why we need to store the IP... but for the life of me i cant remember what it was

[17:01:25]

wagnerrp:

seems we could just have a 'masterbackend' value, no data, and the hostname set for the master

[17:01:41]

wagnerrp:

and optionally allow backendserverips for any machine you want to specifically set an address

[17:01:46]

wagnerrp:

otherwise listen on all interfaces

[17:02:13]

wagnerrp:

the only reason i could think of not wanting to listen on all interfaces is if you for whatever reason want to run your backend on your firewall

[17:06:30]

sphery:

gbee: the way we change settings values is DELETE followed by INSERT

[17:06:50]

sphery:

so if you have a network failure immediately after DELETE but before INSERT...

[17:06:52]

wagnerrp:

is that for simplicity in the code?

[17:07:08]

wagnerrp:

so you dont have to manage separate UPDATEs?

[17:07:14]

sphery:

but if you have a network (or MySQL) failure, how can you expect MythTV to work???

[17:07:30]

sphery:

I don't konw why it's that way

[17:07:34]

sphery:

has been since before my time

[17:07:41]

wagnerrp:

yeah, thats the other thing i didnt get... what is a 'weak connection'

[17:07:43]

sphery:

maybe some MySQL 3.23 support thing

[17:08:07]

sphery:

wifi?

[17:08:20]

wagnerrp:

i mean i do a SELECT to determine if a value exists, and then INSERT or UPDATE accordingly

[17:08:26]

wagnerrp:

i didnt even think to do it any other way

[17:08:27]

sphery:

not that we should support wifi with spurious loss of network

[17:09:00]

sphery:

yeah, it's probably so we don't have to determine whether to insert or update and so we can use the insert code for initial insert as well as replace

[17:09:07]

kormoc:

wagnerrp, INSERT INTO settings (blah) VALUES (bleh) ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE data=VALUE(data)

[17:09:25]

sphery:

yeah, those weren't well supported in 3.23, right?

[17:09:32]

kormoc:

yeah, they weren't

[17:09:34]

sphery:

and some people still want to avoid MySQL extensions

[17:09:38]

wagnerrp:

i had to do special handling of NULLs because of how the python bindings handle them

[17:11:57]

yeah, i could probably cut most of these down to a single call

[17:13:59]

sphery:

the more I use it, the more I love rsync

[17:16:56]

kormoc:

Indeed, my only problem with rsync is the inability of have it do a post transfer checksum on the remote file before deleteing locally

[17:17:10]

sphery:

that would be nice

[17:17:18]

wagnerrp:

can you do that if youre running the remote daemon?

[17:17:39]

kormoc:

wagnerrp, not that I know of? but I didn't look that hard

[17:17:56]

kormoc:

I just run it thrice, once to transfer, once to verify, once to delete locally

[17:18:48]

sphery:

using a --checksum to verify? (so it doesn't fall back to the large-file-size-and-time check)

[17:18:56]

kormoc:

yup

[17:19:56]

wagnerrp:

whats the actual chance you will get a bad file over TCP?

[17:20:10]

sphery:

hmmm... from man page -> Note that rsync always verifies that each transferred file was correctly reconstructed on the receiving side by checking a whole-file checksum that is generated as the file is transferred, but that automatic after-the-transfer verification has nothing to do with this option's before-the-transfer "Does this file need to be updated?" check.

[17:21:46]

kormoc:

I've had it catch things on the second run

[17:21:48]

** kormoc shrugs **

[17:22:10]

kormoc:

I think that purely does a network check, not a magnetic media check

[17:22:25]

sphery:

ah, yeah, that makes sense

[17:22:36]

so we know what was received and what it attempted to write was correct

the screenshot does, the machine's hostname is 'frontend'

[17:52:55]

sphery:

I think what's happening is that we lose the connection to the DB

sphery:

then the "auto-find a DB" code goes into action

[17:53:08]

sphery:

falls back to localhost

[17:53:14]

regardless of anything else on the ticket, losing connection to the backend is not supported/supportable

sphery:

and he has a mysql running on localhost

[17:53:19]

sphery:

that hasn't been configured

[17:53:24]

sphery:

so he's now using a different DB

[17:53:32]

sphery:

moral of the story: don't let MySQL die

or don't lose network connectivity to MySQL

[17:53:41]

or else

[17:54:01]

[18:05:45]

the music database tables are shared among all frontends

[18:05:56]

however you must manually share the files over NFS or some other network file system

[19:09:19]

wagnerrp:

you can still do that for movies

[19:09:28]

wagnerrp:

tv shows need title, season, and episode

[19:10:40]

iamlindoro:

There was no point in maintaining a custom popup to enter the number, and a custom popup to enter the title, and a custom search for title+subtitle-- all that information is editable in the edit metadta dialog-- modify the data there, and download metadata

[19:11:26]

benny_:

and if it don't make an exact match I got a list to choose one (?)

[19:11:30]

iamlindoro:

wagnerrp: Think he means the one-off legacy popups to *just* enter inetref, and the custom one *just* for title... which I decided were dumb since it's just a subset of the data in the edit metadata dialog

** wagnerrp has been away from trunk too long, and cant properly lend assistance... **

I would be nice if maybe some error popup if the script fails ... (or for example does not exist) ...

[19:13:44]

Beirdo:

ahhh. #8616. That might just fix the annoyance I've seen in mythweb

[19:14:01]

Beirdo:

never got around to reporting it, but looks like someone did, and fixed it

[19:15:16]

benny_:

to install the script manually, it's enough to copy it just from SVN ?

[19:17:09]

iamlindoro:

It would need proper permissions and to be set executable, and you would need to be sure you had the supporting python bindings

[19:17:40]

iamlindoro:

If you are running trunk and these are question you need to ask, though, I would strongly recommend asking your packager to fix it

[19:18:02]

iamlindoro:

As generally speaking trunk is run with no guarantee-- it's hard enough to provide support for our releases, let alone people who want to live on the edge

[19:18:37]

benny_:

I've already sent a msg on the #mythbuntu, but I would also like to try it out now ...

[19:18:50]

iamlindoro:

eg, you should have known about the changes to metadata grabbing as trunk users are required to be following the commits mailing list religiously

[19:19:16]

[19:19:24]

never knew it was configurable

[20:17:00]

not surprised it is

[20:17:07]

sphery:

true

[20:17:53]

Beirdo:

something like that might make it more bearable should people require the silly UseDNS setting

[20:17:53]

sphery:

seems on my local system it's only about 5s (default for resolv.conf, and I dont have any fallback servers, so it's only one timeout). Option is silently capped to 30s.

[20:18:08]

Beirdo:

why not just call it "SpamUselessLogMessages"

[20:18:17]

sphery:

if yours is 15s, Beirdo , you probably have a couple of name servers

[20:18:23]

Beirdo:

yeah

[20:18:27]

sphery:

and wagnerrp could have many or a timeout specified

[20:18:27]

hey, 3 x 5 = 15...

and if my link is down...

[20:18:57]

I'm thinking of changing my caching name server to hit google's

[20:19:02]

wagnerrp:

last time i had it enabled, i had my ISP's name server specified only

[20:19:23]

sphery:

maybe it's some bsdism :)

[20:19:52]

Beirdo:

yeah, I point bind9 directly to google as a forwarder... and then use them as a backup resolver should my cache not be running

[20:20:03]

sphery:

yeah, that's a good approach

[20:20:23]

wagnerrp:

but then google knows everything you access

[20:20:23]

sphery:

I have a single bind9 running on my internal network and all my hosts use it

[20:20:27]

** wagnerrp puts on tin cap **

[20:20:31]

sphery:

but if it's down...

[20:20:42]

Beirdo:

yup

[20:20:49]

sphery:

google already knows everything everyone accesses

[20:21:02]

Beirdo:

which is why I add the resolvers to resolv.conf after local

[20:21:13]

my bind9 server hasnt gone down in....

not necessarily for myth :)

a ion platform with dvd is ~$475, a mac mini is ~$675, seems that the mini is the much better choice

the only thing i cant do with it is run UPNP, because of the way the network is set up

if it's less then 1/3 the cost to upgrade to a direct from apple newest mac mini, it seems silly to go so low powered

justinh:

I read on some guy's blog that atoms rock

[21:06:51]

Beirdo:

but still, a little atom-based box for $250 that would do it all, and just needs a hard drive... makes for a nice frontend if nothing else

[21:06:59]

Beirdo:

makes a really nice little firewall box

[21:07:02]

the only thing i cant do that a normal VM could is run a separate kernel specifically for that image

[21:07:03]

Beirdo, no optical drive

[21:07:11]

yeah.

[21:07:24]

I tend to keep that stuff on purpose-made hardware anyways

[21:07:25]

oh jeez

[21:07:43]

yeah, that's a bit much

[21:07:54]

ye can have a real CPU for that kinda money

[21:07:58]

have it fire on a 'recording started' event

and then fix any errors in my initial docs

just go into the settings on that host, and set that event to 'mythlink.pl --format <some format> --chanid %CHANID% --starttime %STARTTIME%

one multi-stream card

[21:45:43]

sphery:

oh, cool

[21:45:50]

sphery:

just wondered

[21:45:58]

sphery:

this is interesting: http://mythtv.org/pipermail/mythtv-users/2010-July/293388.html

[21:46:06]

wagnerrp:

i think the m-cards can handle up to 6 streams

[21:46:20]

sphery:

cool

[21:46:36]

sphery:

and--in practice--are they actually cheaper than STB rentals?

[21:46:50]

sphery:

I'd guess that the cable co would make them about equivalent

[21:46:52]

wagnerrp:

i think theyre a couple bucks

[21:47:00]

wagnerrp:

instead of 2x10+/mo

[21:47:09]

sphery:

wow

[21:47:13]

wagnerrp:

maybe only $4-$5/mo

[21:47:25]

wagnerrp:

2x$10/mo for a pair of cable boxes

[21:47:42]

sphery:

http://www.twc-sa.com/ccfaqs.htm

[21:47:45]

sphery:

The CableCARD will cost $1.75 to lease per month as opposed to $6.95/ month that we are currently charging for a DHCT

[21:47:50]

sphery:

don't know where sa is

[21:48:10]

wagnerrp:

so $15/mo savings, youll have recouped the cost in a year and a half, and likely have a more reliable tuner

[21:48:14]

[21:49:28]

yeah, will be interesting to see

[21:49:37]

where as the STBs will at least allow analog capture off your 150s or HDPVRs

[21:49:39]

as a fall back

[21:49:44]

sphery:

one of the guys mentioned he had to upgrade to the top lineup to even find a copy freely channel for testing

[21:50:21]

right, analog is probably still the best way to work with cable, but...

[21:50:43]

[22:54:40]

that's from the capture in #4920

I sense the inevitable unixtime argument hiding behind that

[23:06:52]

sphery:

heh, no this is a should-have-used-QDateTime-parsing-instead-of-building-our-own argument

[23:07:27]

Beirdo:

OK then :)

[23:08:10]

Beirdo:

we can have the other timewaster some other time :)

[23:09:58]

sphery:

kormoc: BTW, speaking of datetime formats... Are you using MySQL 5.1 (or Drizzle or whatever this week's fork is :)? Do you have any comments on http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/8585 ?

** Beirdo represses the urge to reference unixtime AGAIN :) **

Beirdo:

just the lovely date/time kerfuffle... over and over

[23:13:01]

sphery:

heh

[23:13:27]

sphery:

well, this one is user-facing, so it would need a prettier date time

[23:13:31]

sphery:

ideally local time

[23:13:47]

Beirdo:

yeah. we should use Star Trek time

I'm trying to remember what the weird format of dates is in some *nix utility (was thinking date)...

[23:20:07]

sphery:

something very fanciful

[23:22:12]

Beirdo:

man strftime

[23:22:13]

Beirdo:

?

[23:23:02]

Beirdo:

date +%c maybe?

ServerSage:

So running mythfilldatabase causes the load on my myth box to jump up over 4 and the system to slow to a crawl. Just looking for pointers on where to even start.

[23:25:37]

Beirdo:

nice -n 10 mythfilldatabase

[23:27:17]

ServerSage:

Beirdo: I'm assuming there is a problem, and I'd rather get to the bottom of the issue than slap a bandaid on it. This just recently started for no apparent reason.

[23:27:47]

sphery:

mythfilldatabase is a pretty processor and I/O intensive operation

[23:27:52]

sphery:

not well suited to toy processors

[23:27:53]

Wicked:

hmm. what does mythfilldatabase do besides get data from the web and insert into the db?.....ive seen alot of complaints for it stressing systems.

[23:27:56]

Beirdo:

well, maybe stating that upfront would be helpful :)

[23:28:11]

Beirdo:

umm, maybe database optimization may help a bit

[23:28:28]

Wicked:

getting data and inserting shouldnt tax a system to bad

[23:29:23]

Beirdo:

it's not from the web, really, it's from an API

[23:29:41]

Beirdo:

and it's a LOT of data

[23:29:41]

Wicked:

yea...even more reason it shouldnt tax the system too bad

[23:29:41]

k-man:

can mythtv-backend use usb tuners on a mac under osx?

[23:29:41]

ServerSage:

Beirdo: Even a LOT of data shouldn't tax the system this much.

[23:29:52]

Wicked:

i wrote a app a while back that grabbed lots of data and inserted into mysql...sometimes 100 inserts a second and it used virtually no cpu/disk io/memory

[23:29:54]

ServerSage:

Beirdo: And on top of that it's taking FOREVER to actually do it's work. It's been going for about 20 minutes now.

[23:30:06]

Beirdo:

it takes a while

[23:30:07]

Wicked:

so im just curious if mythtv is doing alot of things behind the scenes

[23:30:10]

Beirdo:

live with it :)

[23:30:41]

Beirdo:

the API servers themselves take a while to generate your dataset (assuming you are using Schedules Direct)

[23:30:47]

ServerSage:

Beirdo: I'm ok with it taking a long time, it's the fact that the system becomes unusable.

[23:30:56]

Beirdo:

then use nice.

[23:31:04]

Beirdo:

make it low priority, move on

[23:31:48]

sphery:

Wicked: I'd love you to rewrite all the XML parsing so that it's done in a way that doesn't stress the system so that I can change mythfilldatbase to always grab all data on Schedules Direct

[23:31:50]

Beirdo:

it does a lot of work

[23:32:35]

Wicked:

heh. id seriously look into it except i dont know python or c/c++

[23:32:37]

ServerSage:

Beirdo: If thats the answer, then that is cool. I'm just confused as to why it's just now popping up as a problem after years and years of use.

[23:32:48]

sphery:

but you know it shouldn't tax the system???

[23:32:50]

Wicked:

and im not complaining...was merly curious

[23:33:00]

Wicked:

sphery, never said that.

[23:33:11]

iamlindoro:

"<Wicked> yea...even more reason it shouldnt tax the system too bad"

[23:33:16]

sphery:

heh

[23:33:20]

sphery:

anyway, it's on the list

[23:33:27]

ServerSage:

Now now boys and girls. Didn't want to get anybody beat up. Hehe.

[23:33:36]

Wicked:

in regards to it getting from an api..apposed to manually getting it from html or something

[23:33:37]

sphery:

we have more people saying it needs done (>0) than people actually doing it (0)

[23:34:02]

Wicked:

anywho. i know you guys love to flame people so ill shutup.

[23:34:22]

ServerSage:

Wicked: It's the IRC way. :)

[23:34:28]

Wicked:

hehe

[23:34:44]

sphery:

no, it's more that we hate when someone says we didn't do things right and they aren't providing the code to do it right

[23:34:44]

iamlindoro:

Yeah, definitely about our love of flaming and not about incorrect statements, that's much more sensible

[23:35:28]

Wicked:

heh. ive been around this channel for a while...ive seen you flare up over nothing before.

[23:35:33]

ServerSage:

I didn't take what he said as, "You guys are doing it wrong" I took it as "Aaah, an API is more efficient than HTTP calls", but meh.

Doesn't matter in the end, if it's working it's balls off I'm ok with that. And that seems to be the consensus. Thanks folks. Now, be nice to each other.

[23:37:37]

ServerSage:

I actually do have one more question, and I admit I did not research this even a little. I notice that when I run mythfilldatabase it always says "HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 401 Unauthorized" and then the very next line it works.

[23:37:39]

Wicked:

exactly

[23:38:01]

sphery:

Beirdo: woah, this took /way/ too long... Discordian dates. ddate command

[23:38:05]

Wicked:

err that was at your previous comment

[23:38:20]

iamlindoro:

ServerSage, That is the way HTTP auth works

[23:38:44]

ServerSage:

iamlindoro: Aaah, super. Thanks. I assumed it was inane, just figured I'd ask now while I had everybody riled up.

[23:38:54]

iamlindoro:

you do a get, receive an unauthorized, and post credentials

[23:53:24]

sphery:

actually I got the date part

[23:53:26]

kormoc:

ServerSage, mythfilldatabase is only one process, it can't by itself take your load up to over 4

[23:53:31]

sphery:

just haven't gotten the actual command format

[23:53:41]

kormoc:

sphery, well, we just have to remove the T out of the string :)

[23:54:02]

wagnerrp:

its just 'QUERY_RECORDING TIMESLOT <chanid> <starttime>'

[23:54:28]

wagnerrp:

starttime being an integer value YYYYMMDDHHmmss

[23:54:48]

sphery:

I think I might be getting the DELETE because the mythlink.pl code uses Delete so I used Timeslot to keep it the same, but our proto makes it case sensitive

[23:55:47]

sphery:

2010-07–20 19:55:30.097 Bad QUERY_RECORDINGS query

[23:55:49]

sphery:

maybe not

[23:56:53]

wagnerrp:

note that is the recording start time, not the program start time

[23:57:07]

sphery:

yeah, that's not the problem

[23:59:17]

wagnerrp:

kormoc: Aaah, but it talks to mythbackend and mysql. :)
