[00:06:04] sphery: kormoc: speaking of which (even if I was talking to myself), it seems that jpabq- wanted to test your fix for #8158, and he found that it doesn't detect PHP configured without mysqli or mysql support

[00:08:28] wagnerrp: phil____: im using it with xchat currently, did you want an xdpyinfo run or something?
[00:08:40] sphery: kormoc: 00:56:17 is the revelation
[00:08:53] kormoc: kk
[00:09:04] nichos (nichos!~nichos@c-98-231-118-122.hsd1.fl.comcast.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:10:01] phil____: wagnerrp: i don't know what an xdpyinfo is, but if i can move mythtv from one xinerama screen to another on the same x with xpra, i'll investigate
[00:10:10] phil____: whatever i'll need for it
[00:10:25] sphery: kormoc: I understand that developing a test for that and making a good error message would be challenging (and verifying the test would be annoying), but since it seems a lot of users have such problems, it would be great if there's something you can do without too much effort
[00:10:36] ** kormoc nods **
[00:10:49] wagnerrp: if you are using xinerama, you are not using multiple screens
[00:10:59] wagnerrp: simply drag the window from one monitor to the next
[00:11:10] phil____: with the IR?
[00:11:11] phil____: :-)
[00:11:21] phil____: i want it automated
[00:11:37] wagnerrp: xpra is for moving applications from one /server/ to the next
[00:11:43] phil____: ok
[00:11:54] wagnerrp: its like `screen`, but for X applications
[00:12:13] mib_9e44hf: km
[00:12:14] phil____: the reason why I took the term xinerama is because it's used often to distinct monitors in twinview setup
[00:12:21] phil____: alright
[00:13:02] phil____: more precisely, xinerama desktop, but anyway you know what i mean
[00:13:10] wagnerrp: xinerama and twinview are two completely different things
[00:13:30] phil____: i know and wanted to omit the begining discussion
[00:13:31] phil____: :-)
[00:14:02] wagnerrp: xinerama is a module in X to make it use two independent screens as a single screen, such that you can move applications between
[00:14:19] phil____: as is twinview
[00:14:19] wagnerrp: twinview is a tool built into nvidia drivers to make X think your two monitors are actually a single device
[00:14:36] wagnerrp: same final purpose, but completely different ways of going about it
[00:14:46] wagnerrp: and the language is not inter-changable
[00:15:11] phil____: with the exception of xinerama attributes working within this one big monitor, i.e. mplayer -xineramascreen x works fine with twinview
[00:15:36] phil____: or the mythtv setup dialogue, the xineramascreen is asked for
[00:16:17] wagnerrp: are there actually mechanisms to poll the subscreens?
[00:16:19] phil____: yeah i know, i just needed a "word" for screens in one x-server
[00:16:27] phil____: well
[00:16:32] wagnerrp: i always thought those just assumed the subscreens were the same size
[00:16:39] wagnerrp: and either took the left or right half
[00:17:03] phil____: as long as nvidia just states that they want to include randr support, it's not done yet
[00:17:16] wagnerrp: i know twinview requires that the two screens are the same size
[00:17:18] phil____: nope, at least not with the nvidia driver
[00:17:22] sphery: use your window manager to move it (with appropriate hot key + irxevent)
[00:17:23] phil____: nope

[00:17:37] sphery: though that won't help if you actually have different-sized screens (which is sounds like you do)
[00:18:17] kormoc: phil____, screens like :0.0 and :0.1 or real xinerama screens?
[00:19:39] phil____: kormoc: sorry i can't answer this, I am still confused about the :0.x naming, dunno what i means

[00:20:11] phil____: sphery: hm, that'd be nice
[00:20:18] kormoc: you have servers, :0 is a server, :1 is a server, then you have screens :0.0 is first server first screen, :0.1 is first server second screen
[00:20:28] kingdon (kingdon!~Elive_use@cpe-67-253-244-26.rochester.res.rr.com) has left #mythtv-users ("I ♥ Elive")
[00:20:41] kormoc: they're completely separate concepts, you can run different window managers on each and can't drag windows between them
[00:20:43] phil____: then 0.0 and 0.1 is what i am running
[00:21:16] phil____: and switching between settings 0.0 = DFP/ 0.1 = CRT and 0.0 = DFP/ 0.1 = projector
[00:21:18] marc_us (marc_us!~marc@cpe-24-243-23-106.satx.res.rr.com) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:21:40] kormoc: if it's xinerama/twinview, it's actually :0.0 with some magic that maps them to different physical displays
[00:21:58] kormoc: you can't move windows from :0.0 to :0.1 or vice versa
[00:22:02] phil____: well, as of my currently running setups, i am able to drag anything back and forth between any 2 active screens
[00:22:08] marc_us: sphery: I have beat the Dual HDPVR problem.... It was a logical fix requiring me to ensure both devices had the same firmware.
[00:22:10] kormoc: then it's not :0.0 and :0.1
[00:22:32] phil____: hm ok
[00:22:38] phil____: then, somehow
[00:22:59] phil____: the xineramadisplay setting in mythtv-setup works anyway
[00:23:04] phil____: ?!?
[00:23:27] sphery: marc_us: cool... glad you got it figured out.
[00:24:41] marc_us: I also installed a backplane header for another usb bus and ensured they were on seperate hardware buses. Thay may have some of the credit but I'm afraid to lsusb while recordings are running
[00:25:09] Iltsu (Iltsu!jiltanen@xob.kapsi.fi) has left #mythtv-users ()
[00:25:39] phil____: so you think it might be as easy as selecting mythtv, dragging it (by means of script) say 1600 to the right and fullscreening?
[00:25:45] marc_us: I'm Super freaking happy now...
[00:26:52] sphery: phil____: mythtv doesn't allow resizing after startup

[00:27:35] sphery: using LocalHostName overrides in config.xml — frontendprojector and frontendmonitor or whatever
[00:27:49] sphery: or, better, use an override only for the one you're likely to use the least
[00:27:56] sphery: and let the other use the real hostname
[00:29:54] marc_us: sphery: I wanted to thank everyone who helped me but you are the only one I remember!
[00:30:28] sphery: heh, well, it's the thought that counts, right?
[00:30:45] sphery: and I'm sure others helped far more than I (since I don't know much about the HD-PVRs)
[00:31:42] marc_us: Well, if anyone has similar problems, I'll know how to help
[00:33:26] sphery: and that's actually the /best/ way to say thanks

[01:44:24] Captain_Murdoch: yeah, saw that.
[01:44:48] Captain_Murdoch: Images/ISOs are just my SG names in that example, can be user defined or Videos, etc..

[05:40:31] ralyon: does anyone have an idea what might be causing this or where I might look to figure this out?

[06:26:04] wagnerrp: im just wondering why as a home user, you think you need to run a hypervisor
[06:26:16] Beirdo: another person that wants to virtualize something that's best run non-virtualized...
[06:26:17] totalanni: learning process i guess
[06:26:19] wagnerrp: the only reason to run a full VM is to allow you to run multiple different kernels

[06:26:44] totalanni: and with a hdhomerun, what are the cons of virtualization?
[06:26:46] totalanni: im curious
[06:26:47] wagnerrp: if you dont need multiple kernels, there are a number of less intrusive, less overhead options
[06:26:54] totalanni: i have a homebuilt esxi server
[06:27:02] totalanni: and plan on getting a myth-tv setup
[06:27:10] totalanni: and was just considering using it
[06:27:20] totalanni: thats why im here...to hear this out...
[06:27:26] totalanni: now, where are my cons
[06:27:40] wagnerrp: with the HDHR, its network attached
[06:27:41] totalanni: i see that my cheap hardware doesnt have device mapping, so using pci captures are out
[06:28:00] wagnerrp: as long as you can communicate on the network, theres no problem
[06:28:02] totalanni: but im picking up a dual tuner hdhr for $50 tomorrow
[06:28:09] totalanni: and would like a fast solution
[06:28:09] wagnerrp: used?
[06:28:13] totalanni: yea
[06:28:50] totalanni: so, id like to record 2 streams while watching 1
[06:29:01] totalanni: what type of memory requirement are we looking at?
[06:29:04] wagnerrp: watching one of the two? or a third?
[06:29:14] totalanni: hum...either?
[06:29:17] kormoc: You do realize that a HDHR doesn't give you very many channels likely
[06:29:18] wagnerrp: you dont intend to run your frontend under a VM do you?
[06:29:25] totalanni: no
[06:29:36] Beirdo: ooooh.
[06:29:45] Beirdo: I think I may have fixed my antenna.
[06:29:52] wagnerrp: then youre looking at maybe 50MB for the backend, plus whatever shared libraries it consumes
[06:29:55] Beirdo: works when the balcony door is closed
[06:30:04] kormoc: plus database
[06:30:08] Beirdo: doesn't work too well with it open
[06:30:08] wagnerrp: 512MB minimum, 1GB preferred
[06:30:11] Beirdo: crrrrap
[06:30:17] totalanni: kk
[06:30:51] wagnerrp: any database server will do, if youve got one set up, just add a new database to it, and point mythtv at it
[06:31:24] Beirdo: assuming it's MySQL
[06:31:26] Beirdo: :)
[06:31:37] totalanni: ty
[06:31:37] wagnerrp: there is that
[06:32:17] totalanni: so, you say that the hdhr wont pick up very many channels?
[06:32:26] totalanni: as in? not QAM?
[06:32:39] Beirdo: it will do QAM or OTA (ATSC)
[06:32:48] wagnerrp: http://www.silicondust.com/support/channels/
[06:32:59] Beirdo: but you may not get much unencrypted QAM, depending on cable carrier,e tc
[06:34:12] totalanni: not even seeing my cable co on the list
[06:34:33] Beirdo: whhhaaaa?
[06:34:37] wagnerrp: its populated by customers
[06:34:44] Beirdo: that's saying 7.1 is on like 5 channels.
[06:35:06] wagnerrp: so if there has been no HDHR user with your cableco, there will be no lineup for it
[06:36:53] totalanni: hum
[06:37:12] totalanni: i was under the impression that the hdhr also functioned like a normal capture card
[06:37:30] Beirdo: it will do QAM and ATSC
[06:37:32] totalanni: like plugging in a standard tv
[06:38:18] superdump (superdump!~rob@unaffiliated/superdump) has joined #mythtv-users
[06:38:36] wagnerrp: 'standard', meaning NTSC? tube?
[06:38:40] totalanni: yea
[06:38:48] wagnerrp: no, you wont get any of that
[06:39:06] totalanni: just the hd channels my hd gets?
[06:39:15] totalanni: that has -x# on them?
[06:39:16] wagnerrp: no, just the digital channels
[06:39:26] wagnerrp: resolution is irrelevent
[06:39:45] totalanni: i want to be able to record channels 4–60
[06:39:49] totalanni: etc
[06:39:57] totalanni: not so concerned about the hd
[06:40:08] wagnerrp: the HDHR is a digital tuner
[06:40:10] totalanni: but thought it was gonna be nice
[06:40:13] wagnerrp: it will only receive digital channels
[06:40:17] totalanni: right
[06:40:23] totalanni: and not all cable channels are digital?
[06:40:38] wagnerrp: that depends on your provider
[06:40:50] wagnerrp: it will not be able to receive any channels that an 'old tube' TV picks up

[06:41:58] totalanni: back to building a box
[06:42:02] wagnerrp: netcorder or something like that, but thats european only

[06:44:02] totalanni: as budget as possible
[06:44:05] totalanni: :-D
[06:44:19] wagnerrp: HVR-1850 or HVR-2250
[06:44:29] totalanni: guess my frontend can become FE/BE
[06:44:39] wagnerrp: the 1850 has an unresolved driver issue that prevents mythtv from using its analog tuner
[06:44:48] wagnerrp: and the 2250 only has developmental analog support
[06:45:46] totalanni: so the 2250 would be the better choice?
[06:46:01] kormoc: for analog only, your better with a pci card like a pvr 150 or pvr 500
[06:46:18] totalanni: my frontend doesnt have pci
[06:46:31] totalanni: just express
[06:46:40] wagnerrp: atom?
[06:46:42] kormoc: wagnerrp, are they all framegrabbers?
[06:46:43] totalanni: no
[06:47:07] wagnerrp: kormoc: those two cards are the only PCIe cards available (for NA) that are not framegrabbers
[06:47:10] totalanni: its a AMD X2 2.8
[06:47:25] totalanni: with a cheap mobo

[06:49:17] wagnerrp: funky
[06:49:23] totalanni: was gonna drop a wireless-n in the mini pci-e
[06:50:13] wagnerrp: wired is always preferred for streaming video
[06:50:36] wagnerrp: mythtv uses minimal buffer, so wireless tends to not work well

[06:51:49] totalanni: so, thats where i stand....if i have to buy a capture card like that...i would be forced to use that
[06:52:04] totalanni: the hdhr seemed too good to be true
[06:52:10] totalanni: damn

[07:43:16] ComradeHaz`: Hi all. If I try to start frontend with a dvd in my drive it seeks the DVD (I can hear the laser moving about) and then fails to start the frontend.
[07:43:23] ComradeHaz`: Remove the DVD and it starts fine.
[07:44:57] ComradeHaz`: Ih, and then if I put the DVD back in again it crashes immediately.
[07:47:00] justinh: fwiw then, don't start mythfrontend with a dvd in the drive :)
[07:47:12] ComradeHaz`: See last point.
[07:47:32] ComradeHaz`: That's a bit of a bugger on a media centre
[07:47:52] justinh: it's probably something to do with the media monitoring. I can't remember where the settings are for that
[07:48:11] ComradeHaz`: Well, I just disabled that.
[07:48:39] ComradeHaz`: Does that require a backend restart to take effect?
[07:48:46] justinh: all that auto insert stuff just gets on my nerves anyway
[07:48:53] justinh: no, it's a frontend only setting
[07:49:13] ComradeHaz`: Well, essentially restarted it now then :D
[07:50:20] justinh: if you start mythfrontend from a terminal do you see any errors or other messages when you insert a disc?
[07:51:21] ComradeHaz`: Hmm, I think that it may have been the media monitor.
[07:51:39] ComradeHaz`: I disabled it and then put the cd in and it crashed
[07:51:41] justinh: I've seen at least one person with the same trouble
[07:51:59] ComradeHaz`: but I suspect the setting is not activated until a front end restart, as it's not doing it anymore...
[07:52:05] justinh: yup

[15:28:12] wagnerrp: (that one wouldnt be half bad...)
[15:28:13] phil: well, for a multi room setup this is not unusual
[15:29:15] justinh: thought you'd just need to set your number of speakers to '2'
[15:29:36] phil: for that i need to enter preferences
[15:29:57] justinh: and?
[15:30:00] phil: or can i add a shortcut for that and display it in the menu while playing
[15:30:09] justinh: no
[15:30:16] wagnerrp: you want to... dynamically change your speaker configuration during playback?
[15:30:18] wagnerrp: why?
[15:30:44] phil: because if got 2 monitors, actually a projector and a monitor, with myth running
[15:30:46] Gibby1313: FYI, I should be hearing back from Accuweather on a TOA this week or next
[15:31:14] justinh: phil: and you chop & change between them?
[15:31:33] phil: if watching on the monitor the 5.1 of the receiver is totally overblown and the speaker geometry does not fit
[15:31:36] justinh: it'd be easier to make a script to run mythfrontend with the relevant options instead
[15:31:40] phil: justinh: yes, exactly
[15:31:52] wagnerrp: phil: but your audio is still run through the receiver?
[15:32:04] phil: no
[15:32:30] phil: one sound setup with the default alsa device doubles the sound output to the receiver and the monitor speakers
[15:32:33] wagnerrp: so you actually want to completely switch audio outputs?
[15:32:49] phil: the other is pass through and dolby digital
[15:32:51] wagnerrp: or do you go to the back of your machine and swap out cables?
[15:33:06] justinh: e.g. mythfrontend -O audio_option1=foo .. and mythfrontend -O audio_option1=bar :-)
[15:33:33] wagnerrp: best option would be to buy a receiver with a secondary audio zone
[15:33:36] phil: i want to switch "on AC3 files use SPDIF" to "on AC3 files downconvert to default alsa" behaviour
[15:33:37] wagnerrp: and switch to the second zone
[15:34:10] phil: wagnerrp: actually i've got one of those
[15:34:31] phil: but the monitor audio is coming from the pc, not the receiver
[15:35:13] phil: well, i know, the setup is somewhat complicated
[15:35:24] wagnerrp: basically, no... there is no mechanism for changing audio setup on-the-fly
[15:35:48] dkeith (dkeith!~dkeith@nat/hp/x-hautzvbphsqkojur) has joined #mythtv-users
[15:36:03] wagnerrp: when you issue a settings flush on the backend, does that push it out to all the frontends as well?
[15:36:11] wagnerrp: i noticed it sends such a system event
[15:36:31] phil: i don't know how to do a settings flush
[15:36:52] wagnerrp: you could have a script that changes the necessary settings, issues a flush
[15:36:57] iamlindoro: wagnerrp: Yes, I believe that gets propagated
[15:37:02] phil: but the receiver + monitor default is done through a special alsa config
[15:37:04] wagnerrp: but even then youll almost certainly have to back out of playback to the main menu
[15:38:17] phil: well, thats ok for me
[15:38:24] phil: how do i issue a flush?
[15:38:37] phil: the settings are in the config file i suppose
[15:38:44] wagnerrp: database
[15:39:24] phil: ok, then an sql statement
[15:39:32] wagnerrp: send '32 MESSAGE[]:[]CLEAR_SETTINGS_CACHE' to the backend
[15:39:42] phil: and how would i issue the "reread settings please"?
[15:40:09] wagnerrp: or run 'mythbackend --clearcache', which would do the same thing
[15:40:32] phil: not frontend?
[15:40:50] wagnerrp: no, there is no flush mechanism exposed through the telnet interface
[15:41:14] wagnerrp: you flush the master backend, and it propagates that signal to all connected SBEs and FEs
[15:41:31] phil: ok
[15:42:02] phil: how do i send the message?
[15:42:26] phil: well
[15:42:29] phil: hm
[15:42:45] phil: the clearcache seems way easier
[15:42:49] phil: thank you!
[15:43:55] wagnerrp: youre going to be doing DB edits
[15:44:03] wagnerrp: which means you /should/ be using the perl or python bindings
[15:44:12] wagnerrp: both of which allow you to issue commands over the backend protocol

[15:44:45] phil: well it would be easier for me to just look at the database and create the sql by hand
[15:45:00] phil: i've got more experience with that than perl and python
[15:45:08] wagnerrp: actually, it would be vastly easier to use the python bindings
[15:45:22] wagnerrp: and the perl bindings, you are just giving it sql statements
[15:45:32] wagnerrp: with the advantage that it figured out where the database is located for you
[15:45:35] phil: i did not code a single line in python yet
[15:45:36] wagnerrp: instead of hard-coding it in some script
[15:45:58] phil: but did the backend of some serious db applications
[15:46:58] wagnerrp: say your frontend was named 'myfrontend', and you wanted to disable AC3 passthrough
[15:47:36] wagnerrp: with the python bindings you would do... 'import MythTV; db = MythTV.MythDB(); db.settings.myfrontend.AC3PassThru = False'
[15:47:58] phil: wow
[15:48:06] phil: thats actually impressive
[15:48:57] phil: can i do the flush in that too?
[15:53:27] wagnerrp: http://mythtv.pastebin.ca/1924295
[15:55:23] wagnerrp: just get rid of line 18, changed what i was going to do and forgot to delete that
[15:56:57] phil: thank you very much wagnerrp
[15:57:19] phil: neat!
[15:57:32] wagnerrp: if youre good with mysql, i assume you can diff a table dump on your own to see what actually needs to be changed
[15:58:00] phil: sure
[15:58:10] phil: i'd actually read it directly off the db
[15:58:29] wagnerrp: well you would have to know what settings to change, to know what you needed to change manually
[15:59:13] wagnerrp: not very easy to read through a several hundred line table manually, to see what is different
[15:59:19] phil: well
[15:59:38] phil: query db, grep?
[15:59:41] wagnerrp: or you could run the frontend with '-v database' to see what its changing directly
[15:59:48] phil: ok
[16:00:06] wagnerrp: i mean you set the frontend up for one mode, dump the table
[16:00:08] phil: thanks again, i'm a bit in a hurry right now
[16:00:11] wagnerrp: set the frontend up for the other mode, dump again
[16:00:17] wagnerrp: diff the dumps
[16:00:21] phil: i'll give you some feedback if you want me to
[16:00:25] phil: when it's done
[16:00:34] wagnerrp: to see what settings you need to change, and what you need to set them to to flip between them

[16:04:50] phil: that would be awesome
[16:04:59] wagnerrp: youll have to seek external help for that
[16:05:25] phil: i could invoke a restart through lirc too

[17:30:23] ke^: Is there any way to change the default crop video filter value. Its now 16 pixels but i dont want that much
[17:32:11] wagnerrp: not many people actually use the video filters, so you may be waiting around a while for someone with experience with them
[17:33:11] ke^: well i dont use it either while playing i need to use it while running transcode and crop some pixels away from upper area of the picture.
[17:33:45] wagnerrp: for transcoding, crops must be done at 16-pixel intervals
[17:33:52] wagnerrp: due to limitations in the codecs
[17:34:14] wagnerrp: same reason why 1080p video is actually 1920x1088

[18:55:34] sphery: note how good I did at not dissing atom in my post
[18:55:42] sphery: but someone did take my suggestion and perverted it
[18:56:14] sphery: since a low-TDP Core 2 Duo would work at similar power to an atom system--especially if it only runs 2hrs/day or so
[18:56:30] sphery: especially those new ones you linked a while back
[18:57:23] GreyFoxx: jdugg: It's a webserver, previously was also their mail server but now just web :)

[18:57:42] wagnerrp: i dont think those processors are in production yet
[18:57:45] ke^: sphery: you saying that core 2 duo drains similar much power vs atom ?
[18:57:49] ke^: dont think so :\
[18:58:08] wagnerrp: ke^: at 10% duty cycle? certainly
[18:58:27] ke^: well maybe cpu does but you have to count all other parts too. And atoms are usually built in low power consumption system.
[18:58:43] Wicked: GreyFoxx, how many day uptime?
[18:58:49] wagnerrp: our C2D compute nodes idle in the 40s, and are under load in the 70s
[18:59:07] wagnerrp: with not significant effort, you could drop that another 30%
[18:59:15] sphery: ke^: I'm saying that a Core 2 Duo system, properly designed, will use similar power to an atom
[18:59:16] wagnerrp: with i5s, you can get down into the 20s
[18:59:24] sphery: i.e. system power usage != CPU power usage
[18:59:29] wagnerrp: remember, these are desktop atoms were talking about
[18:59:35] wagnerrp: the atom itself might not use much
[18:59:43] wagnerrp: but the rest of the motherboard and video uses a ton
[19:00:46] sphery: ke^: case in point, the 25W Mac Mini with a Core 2 Duo (or isn't the 2010 model an 18W system?)
[19:00:54] wagnerrp: 18W i believe
[19:00:59] ke^: my point were that whole system still eats lots of power so..
[19:01:07] wagnerrp: no, it doesnt
[19:01:12] sphery: plus, see (these /old/ articles): http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/25w-performance-pc,2551.html http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/intel-e7200-g31,2039.html http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/intel-ato . . . cy,2069.html
[19:01:17] sphery: 18W is /not/ lots of power
[19:01:26] ke^: well i have this zotac ion itx which im very happy with
[19:01:28] wagnerrp: when you look at the duty cycle these things will be running
[19:01:44] sphery: ke^: and for those who'd prefer to pay extra and get less, Atom is the perfect choice :)
[19:01:46] wagnerrp: youre talking << $1 year extra to run a real processor instead of an atom
[19:01:51] ke^: but could i get more compute power if id buy that c2d version and still have low power consumption ?
[19:02:00] sphery: wagnerrp: and that's if you run it all the time
[19:02:03] sphery: at 2hrs/day...
[19:02:12] wagnerrp: yes, shutdown or standby when not in use
[19:02:20] GreyFoxx: Wicked: At one point it was several years, but they have massive problems with power outages which go way past their UPS's so it's uptime is rarely more than a few months at a time
[19:02:48] wagnerrp: those systems all use the same amount when turned off
[19:02:53] Wicked: GreyFoxx, ah.
[19:02:59] sphery: wagnerrp: heh, so true!
[19:03:51] wagnerrp: and i dont understand these HDMI->CAT6 adapters at all
[19:04:05] wagnerrp: youre trading one twisted pair cable for another
[19:04:36] wagnerrp: and for that matter, a 10gbps rated cable for a pair of 2gbps rated cables
[19:05:41] sphery: ke^: Basically, IMHO, the difference is that Atom chips/systems are low-power-without-having-to-do-the-research/design. You can do well using a real CPU if you know what you're doing (or pay Apple to do it for you). I'm just very anti-Atom because it can't do things that computers should be able to do (like compute :). Unfortunately, marketing talks them up and how "green" they are, but if you look past the facade, there's so ...
[19:05:47] sphery: ... much more to the story than Intel wants us to know.
[19:06:13] wagnerrp: if you look at performance-per-watt... thayre actually pretty awful

[19:12:46] wagnerrp: ke^: and if you want to play anything in flash, or anything using a codec not supported by VDPAU, or even any bitstream with errors that VDPAU cannot handle, youre boned
[19:12:49] wagnerrp: nothing to fall back on
[19:12:49] sphery: yeah, as long as nvidia knows how to play them :) and, maybe once Adobe decides to support vdpau on Linux
[19:12:51] ke^: But could i get better power effiency against the speed if upgrade to lets say Zotac H55ITX-A-E
[19:12:54] iamlindoro: *Up to the codec, profile, bitrate, and deinterlacing limitations of the video hardware, as defined by closed source drivers, so long as thorse drivers are provided/updated
[19:13:13] ke^: which is lga775 board with mini-itx i dont think so
[19:13:47] ke^: test shows that it does idle in 52–61 with corei3 and corei5
[19:13:48] wagnerrp: ke^: yes, you could easily get that system down into the ~20W range
[19:14:00] sphery: iamlindoro: So, I finally figured out why I so hate hardware /decode/ but I love hardware /encode/... It's exactly that reason--encode means one input to one output. Decode has to deal with hugely varied inputs (that may not be completely compliant with specs, etc.)
[19:14:10] sphery: so, basically, it's all just a matter of trust
[19:14:29] wagnerrp: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/25w-performance-pc,2551.html
[19:14:35] ke^: well ya i know that my playback depends now on vdpau but as far as what i have seen it begins to work allright.
[19:14:46] iamlindoro: I am told that the nVidia engineers attend church every Sunday, and help old ladies across the street
[19:14:52] wagnerrp: thats with a larger, more capable board
[19:15:11] wagnerrp: and a CPU capable of decoding just about anything you might want to throw at it in software
[19:15:24] ke^: wagnerrp: and hows that if the didnt managed to do it even in review of bit-tech ?
[19:15:38] ke^: they

[19:15:58] ke^: http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/motherboards . . . ard-review/9
[19:17:38] wagnerrp: like i said, our systems at work run low 40s without trying
[19:18:04] ke^: i dont disparage bit-tech test but you said that i could get around 20w idle power consumption with this board while even in bit-tech test they get around 52w
[19:18:06] wagnerrp: and thats with an ampmeter on the wire
[19:18:12] johnnyj: iamlindoro: ha – re: nVidia engineers
[19:18:20] sphery: and, as wagnerrp pointed out just a couple days ago, the difference gets smaller: http://gizmodo.com/5613237
[19:19:01] ke^: well dont remember that it were much of possible when i bought my zotac in 2009 :\
[19:19:08] wagnerrp: ke^: the reason their power draw is so high is because they shoved a Radeon HD 5870 in there
[19:19:11] sphery: those 35W TDP Core i5/i3 chips are nice chips
[19:19:56] wagnerrp: as compared to sticking with onboard graphics on the ION systems or tomshardware review
[19:20:18] sphery: heh, the 5870 is a 225W card, right?
[19:20:32] wagnerrp: theyre also using a 750W power supply
[19:20:37] sphery: Maximum board power: 188 Watts; Idle board power: 27 Watts
[19:20:37] ke^: are there any ion based boards on market that has lga775 ?

[19:38:00] totalanni: looked into getting a vt-d setup so i could virtualize and pass pci to hosts
[19:38:18] totalanni: but droppin a G on a backend seems abit stupid ;)
[19:38:36] wagnerrp: totalanni: as with yesterday, theres little to no point to even bother with virtualization and mythtv
[19:38:37] Beirdo: asus stupid too
[19:38:47] ke^: yah nice board but i have to wait for prices to get down. First of all that board werent even released when i bought my ion board. well it would definitely be faster and better than this ion board but money is the thing that controls everything :P
[19:39:03] wagnerrp: even though you could simply spend ~$100 on a new processor to get vt-d on that system

[19:39:38] wagnerrp: you asked for an LGA775 ION system
[19:39:38] totalanni: iv seen some of the quad core intels have it
[19:39:40] Beirdo: hahahahah

[20:03:12] Beirdo: AndyCap: yeah, then Amazon will send me another, I'm sure :)
[20:03:33] sphery: but I 'fessed up to being an Atom-hater
[20:03:36] Beirdo: sphery: Atoms are a part of the structure of everything... you should love atoms :0
[20:03:42] sphery: heh
[20:03:56] sphery: Beirdo: maybe I disavow the existence of atoms
[20:04:17] sphery: and they're just a simplistic model used by chemists who don't understand String/M-theory
[20:04:26] Beirdo: heh
[20:04:35] sphery: (or maybe I'm talking about a different kind of Atom :)
[20:04:36] Beirdo: you're insane :)
[20:04:46] Beirdo: but it's fun being insane :)
[20:05:02] sphery: yeah, I dislike String/M-theory almost as much as I dislike Atom :)
[20:06:14] sphery: at least kormoc will like my "Atom is a marketing ploy, and proper design--like the Apple Mac Mini--gives all the benefits of Atom without the disadvantages" post
[20:06:43] Beirdo: Atom-hater :)
[20:06:52] Beirdo: Atoms have their place
[20:07:05] Beirdo: machines that need to crunch video... not really their place
[20:07:05] sphery: yeah, I'll admit there are places where they're not bad
[20:07:07] wagnerrp: well to be fair, they are generally pretty cheap

[20:07:34] Beirdo: yeah
[20:07:41] Beirdo: for sure, ARM++ :)
[20:07:44] sphery: though I hear some EEs hate the ARM design and could design it better themselves :)
[20:07:58] Beirdo: which ARM design?
[20:08:04] iamlindoro: heh
[20:08:11] sphery: it was a comment iamlindoro overheard at work
[20:08:15] iamlindoro: sphery: In fairness, he *did* design the Roku box
[20:08:18] Beirdo: the ARM is a series of some well-designed and some HORRIBLY designed chips
[20:08:19] sphery: nice
[20:08:23] kormoc: sphery, here here! :P
[20:08:30] iamlindoro: and it's still better than his DAILY rants agains open source

[20:09:05] iamlindoro: He is totally clueless as to what the licesnes actually mean
[20:09:08] iamlindoro: er licenses

[20:21:04] Beirdo: I'm not gonna fight ya.
[20:21:15] wagnerrp: def fight!!!
[20:21:17] Beirdo: Atoms are fun toys, and they do a lot of things well.
[20:21:30] Beirdo: but video/audio processing? not on that list :)
[20:21:31] wagnerrp: video processing not included
[20:21:56] Beirdo: so withouth VDPAU or *maybe* VAAPI, they are useless for myth
[20:22:11] Beirdo: so far, the jury's out on VAAPI. :)
[20:22:51] Beirdo: my GMA500 box was giving odd issues, but I ran outta energy to track it down, and it took almost all day to redo the vaapi patch to compile anyways
[20:23:54] sphery: glad you got it compiling, though
[20:24:10] sphery: that will help markk out next time he looks at it

[20:24:24] Beirdo: some of them may not have been the "right" way :0
[20:24:47] sphery: well, if nothing else, they'll point out the parts that he needs to change
[20:24:53] Beirdo: but with everything constantly shifting the way it is... hard to say until he has time to tweak it and retest with his setups
[20:25:02] sphery: (assuming you give a diff on top of his--or that he can diff your complete diff)
[20:25:13] Beirdo: I can do either/or
[20:25:23] sphery: so, it's a(n?) historic day...
[20:25:26] Beirdo: git is my friend
[20:25:28] Beirdo: :)
[20:25:30] sphery: I have more kudos than iamlindoro
[20:25:48] iamlindoro: in so many ways
[20:26:19] sphery: him (at a measly 1): http://www.ohloh.net/p/mythtv/contributors and me (way back on page 3) with 7: http://www.ohloh.net/p/mythtv/contributors?page=3
[20:26:45] Beirdo: I think I only have 2
[20:26:46] sphery: I've always wondered why ohloh and svnsearch commit totals differ
[20:27:06] iamlindoro: sphery: Even "no author" has 7 kudos
[20:27:07] iamlindoro: sheesh
[20:27:17] btwe is now known as btwe_afk
[20:27:18] Beirdo: wow I'm at the top of page 4 now :)
[20:27:21] sphery: Beirdo: yeah, right, we all know you got an A+ on the test
[20:27:22] sphery: Beirdo: http://www.ohloh.net/p/mythtv/contributors?page=4
[20:27:28] Beirdo: I finally beat "root"
[20:27:33] sphery: (or 8+ as the case may be :)
[20:28:22] sphery: heh, you're right, I'm no better than "no author"
[20:28:49] sphery: if I had a 6 and "no author" had 7, I could say, "No author is better than me."
[20:29:23] janneg: sphery: I think ohloh counts only trunk
[20:29:34] sphery: janneg: ah, that makes sense...
[20:29:35] Beirdo: yeah
[20:29:42] sphery: I've been wondering that for about a year now
[20:29:55] Beirdo: iamlindoro: you just put in the name mapping, I guess?
[20:30:03] iamlindoro: yep
[20:30:19] iamlindoro: Although it was just to link my libbluray contributions to my Myth ones
[20:30:23] wagnerrp: sphery: im closing in, only 110 commits to go
[20:30:37] Beirdo: I'm sure it will go from 1 to something more signifcant soon
[20:30:46] sphery: wagnerrp: heh, and my flailing around in UI stuff may give you plenty of time to catch up
[20:31:05] iamlindoro: Was 8 until then, suspect it'll go back to 8
[20:32:14] sphery: he had to link his MythTV contributions to his libbluray contributions! https://www.ohloh.net/p/libbluray/contributors?page=2

[20:33:25] sphery: closing in on Geoffrey...
[20:33:28] Beirdo: then I'll be on page 3
[20:33:30] Beirdo: yup
[20:33:36] iamlindoro: Think I can break 1000 before .24 pretty easy
[20:33:49] sphery: I'd actually prefer that he show up and make the race a little more challenging for you
[20:34:00] sphery: we could really use some work on the lossless transcoder
[20:34:02] iamlindoro: and fix mythtranscode while he's at it
[20:34:05] Beirdo: yah, but "meaningless commit" pshaw! :)
[20:34:06] Beirdo: hehe
[20:34:22] iamlindoro: The commit had meaning, but only to the guy doing the resyncs, eg, me
[20:34:29] Beirdo: yeah, I'd be fine if he makes it harder to catch him :)

[20:34:49] Beirdo: hahaha
[20:35:05] Beirdo: but then we'd have to add all the patches you made and others committed for you
[20:35:17] wagnerrp: so beirdo/iamlindoro/kormoc-if-youre-still-around...
[20:35:28] wagnerrp: youre the ones likely to be using an h264 cutting script
[20:35:33] Beirdo: yeah
[20:35:36] wagnerrp: if mythtranscode barfs trying to fix the time codes
[20:35:46] wagnerrp: what would be an acceptable alternative external dependency?
[20:35:46] sphery: both of those (the startup table check and the xdg-screensaver ones) even had one commit where I made it better before giving up completely
[20:35:49] wagnerrp: ffmpeg? mencoder?
[20:35:52] sphery: so I guess that would be a -6 for me
[20:36:08] iamlindoro: wagnerrp: I think ffmpeg is most common/most up to date, but sometimes hardest to keep in sync
[20:36:19] Beirdo: wagnerrp: what precisely are you trying to accomplish? lossless cutting at GOP?
[20:36:25] wagnerrp: yep
[20:36:38] sphery: could nuvexport do it
[20:36:49] sphery: since it's already wrangling the ffmpeg command-line option mess?
[20:36:49] Beirdo: K. I'm not sure what out there can renumber H.264. Replex might be able to be convinced to
[20:36:56] wagnerrp: nuvexport is intended for export
[20:37:00] wagnerrp: this does it in place
[20:37:03] Beirdo: well, nuvexport does a complete transcode
[20:37:09] riddlebox (riddlebox!~james@p548960DA.dip.t-dialin.net) has quit (Quit: Leaving)
[20:37:10] iamlindoro: replex is very very heavily MPEG-2 video hardcoded
[20:37:10] wagnerrp: and fixes/reformulated the seektable and cutpoints
[20:37:12] Beirdo: not lossless in any way
[20:37:16] sphery: oh, you're trying to do it in mythtranscode?
[20:37:19] sphery: that's cool
[20:37:22] ** iamlindoro resync'ed replex a year or so ago too **
[20:37:23] Beirdo: iamlindoro: yeah, unfortunately
[20:37:24] sphery: wagnerrp is the new ghaushe
[20:37:34] wagnerrp: no, im just trying to do a naive GOP cut
[20:37:35] Beirdo: we need to be able to renumber after cut
[20:37:40] wagnerrp: which works, but the timecodes are hosed
[20:37:54] Beirdo: that is *precisely* how I have UPnP commskip working
[20:37:58] janneg: wagnerrp: ffmpeg is a one line change away of being an internal dependency
[20:38:00] Beirdo: but again... need to renumber after
[20:38:13] sphery: wagnerrp: elmojo would be the guy to ask, probably
[20:38:18] wagnerrp: mythtranscode can fix the timecodes for mpeg2 stuff, but doesnt work for h264
[20:38:28] Beirdo: so wagnerrp.. when you find out, please please let me know :0
[20:38:51] iamlindoro: wagnerrp: tsmuxer will do GOP-cut + rewriting of timecodes, think you just need to learn their .meta file format
[20:38:56] Beirdo: if I don't hear anything, I may just start implementing it somehow
[20:39:03] janneg: and I have something very simple to cut of beginning/end of h264 mpeg-ts recordings
[20:39:08] Beirdo: but certainly not for 0.24
[20:39:22] Beirdo: beginning/end shouldn't be much of a problem
[20:39:36] Beirdo: it's discontinuities in the middle that tend to mess things up :)
[20:39:47] Beirdo: like... missing 90s :)
[20:40:05] Beirdo: my TV... will sit there for 90s waiting.
[20:40:12] Beirdo: and then starts playing again

[20:41:18] janneg: Beirdo: yes, but all my h264 sources have no breaks so I don't need to cut in the middle
[20:41:25] Beirdo: heh
[20:41:26] wagnerrp: janneg: ffmyth or something like that would be great
[20:41:31] Beirdo: lucky you :)
[20:41:38] wagnerrp: would also provide a static target for nuvexport to work with
[20:42:02] Beirdo: yeah, nuvexport is gonna get a rehaul to using mencoder in the mean time
[20:42:19] Beirdo: ffmpeg command line is just too variable
[20:45:01] janneg: not even an 1-line change, just ./configure with --enable-ffmpeg
[20:45:26] Beirdo: nice
[20:45:35] Beirdo: we are running pure ffmpeg code? :)
[20:46:02] wagnerrp: well we should at least rename it, so it doesnt overwrite the real binary (if we dont already)
[20:46:03] janneg: that would run ffmpeg with our libraries
[20:46:05] Beirdo: I do notice a pile of const vs. non-const warnings fly by, but I don't know if we care enough to try to silence those
[20:46:24] janneg: yes, the binary has to be renamed
[20:46:36] Beirdo: now that is sweet
[20:46:39] Beirdo: Hmm
[20:46:44] Beirdo: I'll talk to xris...
[20:46:59] sphery: janneg: might be worth doing that
[20:47:00] Beirdo: if we have our own mythffmpeg which we control...
[20:47:15] Beirdo: nuvexport wouldn't be needing to change nearly as often.
[20:47:24] sphery: should make things a lot easier for *buntu guys (packagers and users)
[20:47:29] Beirdo: yeah
[20:47:42] kormoc: same with mythweb's streaming
[20:47:44] sphery: and for Beirdo, et. al., trying to keep up with ffmpeg command line argument changes
[20:47:47] sphery: yeah
[20:48:02] Beirdo: with no faad, though... I may need to look into how to make AAC encoding work right, but that's fine
[20:48:08] janneg: not sure how to do it cleanly
[20:49:02] janneg: was easy for the libs since the Makefile had already an SHLIBPREFIX I\m abusing
[20:49:16] Beirdo: I think it would be great though. We'd have the same behavior regardless of distro

[21:36:26] fdlinux1: is there no way?
[21:36:29] iamlindoro: no
[21:36:48] iamlindoro: downgrade your frontend to 23.0, or upgrade your backend to .23.1
[21:37:27] fdlinux1: it isn't in the ubuntu repo
[21:37:45] iamlindoro: what isn't?
[21:37:58] fdlinux1: a newer backend version
[21:38:00] iamlindoro: Ubuntu is most definitely distributing .23.1 *and* 23.0 packages, both are available
[21:38:12] iamlindoro: ask in #mythbuntu-- they have .23.1 packages available
[21:39:08] tgm4883: fdlinux, Auto builds contain more recent bug fixes than the normal Ubuntu repository contains. See http://www.mythbuntu.org/auto-builds for more info.
[21:39:47] dlonie: Similar question to the above — is there a way to switch from trunk -> fixes?
[21:39:52] iamlindoro: tgm4883: thanks
[21:39:55] dlonie: Or do the db scheme prevent this
[21:40:04] tgm4883: iamlindoro, np
[21:40:05] iamlindoro: dlonie: The only way to do that is to restore to a .23 database, then install .23
[21:40:32] iamlindoro: alternately, hang with trunk another month and switch .24 as soon as the branch is created
[21:41:28] dlonie: iamlindoro: Excellent — I've been out of the loop for a while, so I'm not used to seeing new releases :-) Seems 0.21 lasted forever.
[21:41:35] dlonie: I'll definitely wait a month.
[21:41:51] iamlindoro: Yes, we are attempting to maintain a 4–6 month release cycle, with 2–3 new releases per year
[21:43:05] dlonie: Sounds great. Since I can't keep up with things anymore, I should probably stay off trunk and stop bothering you guys :-)

[22:09:50] sphery: wagnerrp: So, the 11mpg V-8 engine analogy seems to break down a bit... A modern processor only gets 11mpg for the few seconds it's actually passing the other car--otherwise getting the same mpg as the 4-cylinder that has no option to pass.
[22:10:27] sphery: but I like your response--putting realistic timelines on the tech
[22:12:25] sphery: oh, and seems people keep forgetting that you can turn off the engine when you get to your destination (i.e. power off when not in use)

[22:15:03] Beirdo: who'd ever want to do that?
[22:16:30] Beirdo: sigh. well, I still couldn't get my setup to sensibly detect killed children processes yesterday
[22:16:46] Beirdo: I have it temporarily hacked for a workaround.
[22:17:09] Beirdo: I plan on using ptrace a bit to try to narrow down where to look

[22:17:30] sphery: even an 18W Atom run for 2hrs per day versus 24 saves 396Wh/day. Redistribute that 396Wh/day to the 2hrs of actual viewing time/usage, and you could have a 216W waste-of-power frontend.
[22:17:48] Beirdo: 2h/day?!
[22:17:53] Beirdo: are you kidding me?!
[22:18:06] sphery: so what's the typical viewing time for tv?
[22:18:06] Beirdo: I do playback from about 6pm to 1am
[22:18:16] sphery: ok, so 7hrs
[22:18:17] Beirdo: 7h/day
[22:18:34] sphery: 306Wh/day to shut it down for the other 18h
[22:18:35] Beirdo: but I also do so with my backend :)
[22:19:45] Beirdo: and my Atom frontend box... (which still doesn't like me much yet)... takes 8W
[22:19:50] Beirdo: TDP for the system
[22:19:50] phil______: hiho
[22:20:01] sphery: even with 7hrs of viewing per day, an 18W * 24hr Atom system would suck 432Whr/day, so redistribute that and you can get a 62W system
[22:20:09] phil______: how do i specify the custom identifier for the frontend on command line?
[22:20:18] Beirdo: sphery: understood.
[22:20:19] sphery: and it's not even hard to make a system do 62W average usage even with a real cpu
[22:20:36] Beirdo: but there's the other side of it. small hardware.
[22:20:36] sphery: just saying the /only/ real way to save /real/ power usage is to shut down
[22:20:37] Beirdo: :)
[22:20:50] Beirdo: yeah, the only real way to be saving power is to shut off
[22:20:56] sphery: regardless of your system design and how "power efficient" it may be
[22:21:04] Beirdo: failing that, if you ARE going to be on 24/7, use Atom :)
[22:21:07] Beirdo: hehe
[22:21:12] ** Beirdo ducks and runs **
[22:21:23] sphery: or use an appropriately designed non-Atom system that uses about the same power as Atom :)
[22:21:27] Beirdo: yeah
[22:21:42] dlonie (dlonie!~user@cpe-69-204-65-200.buffalo.res.rr.com) has left #mythtv-users ("ERC Version 5.3 (IRC client for Emacs)")
[22:21:47] sphery: but, hey, people pay for marketing
[22:21:54] Beirdo: the lower-end Atoms are really hard to beat power-wise
[22:22:07] Beirdo: but granted, my dual-core Atom firewall ain't lower end
[22:22:10] sphery: they're not actually looking to have to think to save power--they just want someone to /tell them/ they're saving power
[22:22:27] sphery: and most probably don't ever actually verify that they are
[22:22:49] Beirdo: true
[22:24:15] Beirdo: I use a digital watt-meter for that
[22:24:20] Beirdo: aka my finger.
[22:24:32] sphery: heh
[22:25:15] sphery: I have a kill-a-watt, but I'd like to find some sort of mill-a-watt :)
[22:25:29] phil______: can i setup a different frontend with the custonidentifier override by mythfrontend -O ...?
[22:25:47] sphery: really want to find out some real numbers for things that don't use power, but people say waste a ton of power (like leaving cell phone chargers plugged in--like the one next to me is)
[22:26:31] Beirdo: phil______: probably. have you tried it?
[22:26:47] sphery: it's less than 0.5W draw when not connected to the phone, so it doesn't register on my kill-a-watt, but even saying it's using 0.5W, that's 12Wh/day = $0.00144/day at $0.12/kWh
[22:26:58] phil______: i don't know how to name the custom identifier on frontend startup
[22:27:07] phil______: maybe CustomIdentifier?
[22:27:21] sphery: and if people really think that unplugging those will save the earth, they really need to do some better profiling of usage
[22:27:23] phil______: where can i look up the names
[22:27:50] sphery: phil______: no, use config.xml or mysql.txt
[22:27:58] sphery: phil______: and just set a different HOME dir
[22:28:20] kormoc: MYTHCONFDIR="~/.mythtv_left" mythfrontend
[22:28:22] phil______: HOME=WHATEVER && mythfrontned
[22:28:43] sphery: i.e.: export HOME=${HOME}/mythtv/customprofile && mythfrontend
[22:28:43] sphery: yeah
[22:28:58] kormoc: sphery, I thought we should be using MYTHCONFDIR rather then HOME?
[22:29:00] phil______: mythconfdir works too?
[22:29:15] phil______: well, would be cleaner imho

[22:32:24] sphery: kormoc: I just generally tell users about HOME because then other requirements (like the ability to write to the dir, etc) are implied--whereas with MYTHCONFDIR, users may assume, "Oh, I'll just point it at /etc/mythtv," or something and break MythTV
[22:32:58] kormoc: fair nuff
[22:33:09] sphery: both will work--if used appropriately :)
[22:33:22] sphery: so doesn't really matter
[22:33:35] phil______: so when I as a user wouldn't make that misunderstanding, should i use MYTHCONFDIR? ^^
[22:33:40] sphery: also, MYTHCONFDIR gets confusing with LIRC usage of $HOME/.lircrc
[22:33:43] sphery: or can
[22:33:58] sphery: phil______: 08.24 18:33:09 <+sphery> both will work--if used appropriately :)
