[00:00:29] rileyp: livetv is not working on one of my frontends
[00:00:33] rileyp: http://pastebin.com/AdU2YXrd
[00:00:58] rileyp: Could someone have a looksy for me please
[00:03:24] biffhero: LiveTV doesn't work for me, either. It's funny, the backend says it is recording, starts writing an .mpg file to disk, but the front end never sees it and starts displaying it.
[00:03:50] rileyp: it works on my other 2 front end
[00:03:52] biffhero: But that's on 0.23, I am going to try it again with 0.24. I have lower WAF right now, but that's OK.
[00:04:13] rileyp: Im on 0.23 fixes
[00:05:10] biffhero: So am I. Here's what I did to test. start the recording, and immediately, before it errors out, look in your /livetv/ directory. 'watch -n 1 "ls -alrt"' and see if there's a file there which is growing.
[00:05:48] biffhero: looks like you are actually getting some errors. I don't think I was getting any errors, just the front end saying "nope, nothing for me."
[00:05:54] rileyp: RingBuf(/home/dad/Documents/video/recorded/1012_20101130100952.mpg) Warning: Peek() requested 2048 bytes, but only returning 376

[00:06:40] rileyp: I havent looked
[00:08:19] biffhero: Mine doesn't error out straight away, there's like 10 seconds while the frontend tries to open things up. I can "watch -n 1 'ls -alrt'" and see it show up and then go away when the frontend errors out.

[00:08:53] rileyp: No there is not just looked then lucky i have the folder shared with nfs across the network....:D
[00:09:10] biffhero: Are you in the middle of an error timeout now?
[00:09:16] rileyp: likewise mine is the same
[00:09:20] rileyp: no
[00:09:29] Gibby: ne1 now how I can use pm-suspend on a zotac ion and keep the network on?
[00:09:36] biffhero: Mine would be deleted by the backend after the front end times out, and notifies the backend "nope, all done".
[00:09:47] biffhero: so I had to do the looking while I was trying to do the watching.
[00:10:09] rileyp: Gibby no you cant pc is on or off when in suspend the ram is kept live thats all
[00:10:32] rileyp: you can wake a machine with a ping though

[00:11:54] rileyp: ah ok wel lthats probably what has happened
[00:12:21] rileyp: I was thinking maybe it has to do with a setting like mysql.txt
[00:12:43] biffhero: that's my test. If you see that, you will have gotten to where I got. Which is nowhere.  :-)
[00:12:48] rileyp: I know the password needs to be set in 2 differnt document
[00:13:26] biffhero: can the frontend read /home/dad/Documents/ ...
[00:14:10] rileyp: Its on a nfs share and i can open any recording with vlc
[00:14:19] rileyp: if i want to
[00:14:36] rileyp: not that i ever do

[00:17:00] rileyp: I nknow if config.xml and mysql.txt are not the same there are connection issues with mysql but they are the same on my front ned
[00:17:13] rileyp: so its not that
[00:17:28] biffhero: yeah, your front end wouldn't even start up if there was no happy mysql connex.
[00:17:56] rileyp: yeah I know that but it will if the password is wrong ion config.xml
[00:18:25] biffhero: oh, interesting.
[00:18:36] rileyp: It caused odd issues I remember but not what exactly
[00:19:05] rileyp: just a good one to always check if your having wierd stuff happen
[00:19:38] rileyp: so how tested is o.24
[00:19:52] rileyp: Im tempted to just do it
[00:20:34] biffhero: Dunno, I haven't done it yet myself. I hope to do it in the next week or so. WAF, and all that.

[00:28:46] Gibby: rileyp: it has to keep part of it on to be able to wake from lan
[00:29:24] rileyp: no you can wake from lan from s4
[00:29:44] Gibby: hmmm , any way to shutdown and still have USB on so i can wake from usb?
[00:29:58] rileyp: and you can wake from lan in s3 as well
[00:30:16] rileyp: you cant wake from usb in s4 but from suspend you can
[00:30:56] kormoc: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Ubuntu_S . . . USB_Activity
[00:30:59] rileyp: you need to enable /proc/acpi/wakeup look in the mythtv wiki its all there
[00:31:59] Gibby: looks like s5 is what i need, my FE is diskless, waking from S3 works but OS doesn't come back right
[00:32:47] wagnerrp: s5 is shut down
[00:32:51] wagnerrp: meaning you have to reboot
[00:33:14] rileyp: gibby a diskless front end is great and i spent many hours getingone working but its a fiddle and be warned
[00:34:09] rileyp: make sure your diskless clients space is on a different partition to your server.
[00:34:14] Gibby: rileyp; my diskless FE has had no issues in months, and was fairly easy to setup
[00:34:42] Gibby: i have it configured as Fat Client so it has its own chroot
[00:35:26] rileyp: else all hell breaks loose when your servers disk is filled up with logs from your diskless client and then mysql falls over beacuse it canmnot write to disk...
[00:35:29] Gibby: just trying to figure out a way to save some power when it is not in use... and by getting the WAF
[00:36:08] Gibby: i have zenoss configured so i get alerted well before any space issues happen
[00:36:08] kormoc: rileyp, or just enable logrotate for the diskless client?
[00:36:13] rileyp: Gibby your diskless fe can be shut down with s3 and woken by usb by adding

[00:37:01] Gibby: rileyp; i got the shutdown to S3 and wake up working, the OS just never comes back and mounts the paritions
[00:37:03] rileyp: kormoc yes that would probably fix but it stuffed me for a while very upsetting it was too....
[00:37:24] Hilikus (Hilikus!~hilikus@unaffiliated/hilikus) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:37:39] Gibby: I wrote a how to, to setup the diskless, it rotates logs automatically
[00:37:44] rileyp: are you shutting down your server?
[00:37:53] Hilikus: what do you guys suggest as filesystem for mythtv between xfs and jfs?
[00:37:53] Gibby: rileyp: server never goes down
[00:38:04] kormoc: Hilikus, I juse JFS for recordings
[00:38:15] rileyp: use xfs for recordings ext4 for o/s
[00:39:00] rileyp: ok so server runs all time great and when you attempt to boot from diskless client after a suspend its all sad?
[00:39:09] Gibby: yep
[00:39:12] Technophil (Technophil!~David@222-153-24-158.jetstream.xtra.co.nz) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:39:33] Gibby: i was talking to somewhere here or in mythbuntu and suggested leaving the network powered on
[00:40:42] rileyp: hmm yes its kinda the utopia of diskless when it will actually boot from a suspend. It is possible and I saw with my own eyes it happen i almost cried in disbelief after hours of WAF angering meddling
[00:41:02] rileyp: and I gave up on diskless after that
[00:41:26] Gibby: rileyp; when it woke up, it launched the FE but no OS cli commands were working to I shutdown in fear of breaking it
[00:42:16] Gibby: from ACPI looks like S5 would be better since i leaves more "on"
[00:42:18] rileyp: but no OS cli commands sorry im not that techy
[00:42:26] rileyp: please elaborate
[00:43:01] rileyp: you cannot usb boot from anything higher than s3
[00:43:09] rileyp: thats usb wake sorry
[00:43:47] Gibby: S5 also called G2 is known as Soft Off
[00:44:08] Hilikus: what about putting the os and recordings on the same disk but different partitions vs having them in different disks? any recommendation on this?

[00:45:27] rileyp: is not s3 suspend (susp to ram) s4 hibernate(susp to disk ) and s5 dead as in unpluued dead but can be woken with a wake on lan
[00:45:28] Gibby: Hilikus: I don't know about your or others, but I only feel safe when my OS disk is mirrored...
[00:45:51] Gibby: rileyp;nope, that is G3

[00:49:10] rileyp: gibby good one thanks just googled it.
[00:49:20] rileyp: # G2 (S5), Soft Off: G2 is almost the same as G3 Mechanical Off, but some components remain powered so the computer can "wake" from input from the keyboard, clock, modem, LAN, or USB device.
[00:49:39] rileyp: Gibby i would s3 as the ram is local
[00:50:21] rileyp: My diskless Fe did suspend /resume with s3 and a usb remote
[00:51:10] Saviq is now known as Saviq_afk
[00:53:03] Gibby: but it looks liek S5 is shutdown but you can wake it up.. so then it would reboot from PXE.. which should work... I think
[00:53:11] Gibby: Just have to figure out hot to shutdown to S5 and test this...

[02:18:05] kormoc: big blue earth? Did they do a sequel?

[02:35:42] k-man: [R]: err... shepherd is an australain grabber, which calls itself tv_grab_au for mythfilldatabase's purposes – but i guess what yoursaying is, whatever the grabber, it should accept the command line options that xmltv accepts maybe

[02:42:08] jams: even when it did the answer is no

[02:43:23] GadgetWisdomGuru: biffhero: Also does Hulu Plus now. no subscriptions there either. I'm thinking about it to supplement. I want to reduce my cable subscription. I did an analysis, and 90% of what I watch is broadcast anyway

[03:12:38] Beirdo^2: Yeah money better spent on a new tv
[03:13:15] biffhero: OK, so here's a problem, affecting WAF. After a Touchdown, there's a commercial, kickoff, commercial. We always leave the game after the TD, and come back after the commercial. I think the commflag needs tweaked. Is that possible?
[03:13:28] biffhero: I don't care how good it looks, it's for the kids.
[03:14:19] [R]: biffhero: your not describing that properly... because it sounds like its working fine
[03:14:48] Beirdo^2: Auto commskip is rather ummm silly to depend on
[03:14:53] kormoc: I think he's saying the kickoff gets counted as a commercial?
[03:15:31] [R]: biffhero: thats what commskip fw/bk is for
[03:15:33] Beirdo^2: Probably due to durations of commercials etc.
[03:16:02] biffhero: football TD -> commercial -> football kickoff -> commerical -> football drive. the first commercial is pretty short, and sometimes we come back after it, but over half the time we come back after the second commercial.
[03:16:30] kormoc: biffhero, if you tweak it, it'll stop working all the other times likely
[03:16:39] Beirdo^2: Sounds like they are doing someting far enough out of the norm that it's hard to detect well
[03:16:52] biffhero: R: I didn't realize there was a commskip fw/bk. Will look for that one. kormoc, thx. bierdo: yeah.
[03:17:04] kormoc: 30 second commercial, 60 second kickoff, 30 second commercial
[03:17:13] kormoc: kinda hard to figure out that middle isn't a commercial
[03:17:24] Beirdo^2: Yup
[03:17:32] biffhero: I didn't realize how amazing auto-commskip was going to be until the first few times we saw it. Fade out, fade in. So much better than picking up the remote.
[03:17:51] wagnerrp: so long as its accurate
[03:17:54] Beirdo^2: Except for football it seems
[03:17:57] [R]: that's what she said
[03:18:11] kormoc: biffhero, if you watch carefully, it likely works as expected for longer kickoffs, but they're rarer then short ones
[03:18:21] kormoc: [R], %s/she/he/
[03:18:38] biffhero: We just had an accurate one, so yeah, they are working sometimes.

[04:34:13] wagnerrp: as well as 3306 for mysql
[04:34:19] wagnerrp: and possibley 1900 for upnp
[04:34:39] wagnerrp: and maybe 6546 and 6547 for access to the frontend
[04:34:42] ericwait: is it not enough to accept all input from that interface?
[04:34:58] [R]: if you accept everyhitng... wahts the point of the firweall
[04:35:12] ericwait: i have eth0 to the outside world and eth1 to the inside
[04:35:12] wagnerrp: if you are simply going to accept all input, theres no point to the firewall, nor is there point to asking in here for help
[04:36:23] ericwait: I just set up iptables/dhcp/dns for my local network with a set of ip addresses and no matter what I do I cannot connect to the backend
[04:36:30] ericwait: even from the local machine
[04:37:51] biffhero: is the backend running?
[04:38:00] ericwait: when i set up the backend it is able to connect to the db and looks like it is running but I am unable to get mythweb or a frontend to talk to it.
[04:38:01] ericwait: yes
[04:38:04] biffhero: telnet localhost 3306 <<< prove that mysql has network access to IP addy.
[04:38:40] biffhero: "looks like it is running" , how do you know that?
[04:40:09] ericwait: well after running mythtv-setup is states the process that the backend is running on
[04:40:12] [R]: wagnerrp: in the python bindings... what is the difference between getPendingRecordings and getScheduledRecordings?
[04:40:18] [R]: wagnerrp: from the description it looks the same
[04:40:34] wagnerrp: is there a different? yes
[04:40:36] biffhero: I just did "telnet backendIPaddy 6543" and got a connect. does it work for you?
[04:40:42] wagnerrp: what that difference is? i really dont know
[04:40:46] [R]: wagnerrp: haha
[04:41:03] wagnerrp: hey, its a different call, it returns different data
[04:41:13] wagnerrp: but the actual meaning? i have no idea
[04:41:18] wagnerrp: those are just commands i inherited
[04:41:22] biffhero: one returns and int, and the other a string. (4) vs. (four)
[04:41:22] ericwait: biffhero: ah no 6543 did not work
[04:41:51] ericwait: i shouldn't have to be explicit with iptables will I?
[04:41:54] biffhero: ericwait: it ain't runnin'
[04:42:11] biffhero: ericwait: ps auxw | grep -i mythbackend
[04:42:14] [R]: wagnerrp: the descrpition for "getCurrentRecording" is wrong... its the same as freeTuner
[04:42:57] [R]: wagnerrp: ah... loks liek the actual source is right
[04:43:18] biffhero: ericwait: what that get you?

[04:44:16] ericwait: biffhero: two lines of stuff
[04:45:05] biffhero: ericwait: I bet one of them is your grep. is the other one. "/usr/bin/mythbackend --logfile /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log" ?
[04:45:25] ericwait: biffhero: yep
[04:45:42] biffhero: cool. so do this.
[04:45:51] biffhero: telnet localhost 6543
[04:45:54] biffhero: that's on the backend host
[04:46:15] ericwait: connection refused
[04:47:00] biffhero: hrm. that would tell me that you aren't running. can you paste the logfile at pastebin. just hte last 20 lines or so.
[04:47:04] biffhero: ~pastebin
[04:47:20] biffhero: ugh, looks like isaac is dead. guys, where's pastebin?
[04:47:58] biffhero: how abotu this one.
[04:48:02] biffhero: telnet locahost 3306
[04:48:54] biffhero: these tests aren't quite conclusive. "netstat -ln | grep -i 6543" will tell you if anyone is listening on 6543
[04:49:21] ericwait: 5.1.41–3ubuntu12.7"-<%Dh]z@/g;2&gTPuy%
[04:49:21] ericwait: then
[04:49:21] ericwait: quitConnection closed by foreign host.
[04:49:48] biffhero: that's good.
[04:50:00] biffhero: yeah, that means your mysql is running.
[04:50:06] biffhero: can you telnet to it from your frontend machine?
[04:50:09] ericwait: netstat bring up nothing
[04:50:51] biffhero: has this system ever worked?
[04:51:22] ericwait: this system worked prior to a kernal update and my network reconfiguration
[04:51:40] ericwait: does windows have telnet?
[04:51:40] biffhero: I would bet that you have a backend running, but it isn't logging in OK to the DB. but that's not consistent with what you just showed.
[04:51:44] biffhero: yes.
[04:52:01] ericwait: same commands?
[04:52:04] biffhero: ok, you got a frontend which won't start?

[04:52:31] biffhero: for me it's "telnet 192.168.10.129 3306"
[04:52:34] biffhero: but that's on a mac.
[04:52:53] biffhero: oh, you said "same". I read "sorry" sorry about that.
[04:53:06] biffhero: I read "some".
[04:53:38] biffhero: Where's your frontend machine? Is it a linux box? Can you get a shell prompt on it?
[04:53:46] ericwait: well i have a front end that is on the backend that will not start and mythweb and xbmc on a windows machine
[04:53:53] biffhero: OK.
[04:54:15] ericwait: I have been running my telnet from a ssh sesion on the backend
[04:54:21] biffhero: that's fine.
[04:54:36] ericwait: I can runn downstairs and touch it when need be
[04:54:48] biffhero: nah, I'm thinkin. wiat a sec.
[04:54:51] ericwait: k
[04:55:04] biffhero: you got your firewall configs stored in a file?
[04:55:22] ericwait: i'm using webmin to do the iptable managment
[04:55:31] biffhero: I am thinking an easy test would be to reset the iptables.
[04:55:36] biffhero: iptables -L

[04:56:18] ericwait: I have a bunch of enteries
[04:56:23] biffhero: ok.
[04:56:30] biffhero: easy one. "ipables --flush"
[04:56:44] biffhero: then restart BE. restart FE. see if that's better.
[04:57:11] biffhero: you got a FE running on the same box as the BE? How are you seeing if it is working, if it is a long ways away? Are you running a remote X to it?
[04:58:24] biffhero: oops.
[04:58:30] biffhero: my command has a typo.

[05:04:55] ericwait: biffhero: still there?
[05:05:08] biffhero: yep. good to see you back.
[05:05:12] biffhero: did that help?
[05:05:29] ericwait: that machine is the fire wall for the whole house so when it goes down so does the rest, it is up now I will go check,
[05:06:09] biffhero: Oh, OK. I didn't intend to take your whole house down. That command should simply turn off the firewall, though.
[05:06:36] biffhero: with webmin, are you able to say, "keep doing NAT, but stop firewalling incoming connections from the inside interface" ?
[05:07:20] biffhero: because like wagnerrp said, don't you trust everything on that side of the host?
[05:09:42] ericwait: so after the reboot, it still didn't work and then I looked at iptables -L and all my old enteries are still there. I'll try to just set everything to accept through webmin and see what happens
[05:10:05] [R]: wagnerrp: you there?
[05:10:22] wagnerrp: yep
[05:10:28] biffhero: ericwait: yeah, that's a fine start.
[05:11:06] [R]: wagnerrp: db.searchJobs(status=JOBSTATUS.RUNNING) works but db.searchJobs(status<JOBSTATUS.RUNNING) doesn't... how can i make it do less tahn?
[05:11:35] wagnerrp: you have to do a custom search
[05:12:05] wagnerrp: something like custom=(('status<%',JOBSTATUS.RUNNING),)
[05:12:10] wagnerrp: ... i think
[05:12:17] wagnerrp: can never really remember how that one works
[05:12:54] iamlindoro: wagnerrp, I had meant to ask whether you liked my new backend proto token
[05:13:01] iamlindoro: but now I'm going to sleep, so enjoy ;)
[05:14:20] ericwait: biffhero: so iptables -L all have accept but still no joy :(
[05:15:18] wagnerrp: iamlindoro: poor poor jenny...
[05:16:24] ericwait: biffhero: telnet to port 6543 still gives connection refused
[05:16:37] wagnerrp: i hadnt even noticed the bump
[05:16:44] wagnerrp: i had been watching for it, never saw it
[05:16:57] wagnerrp: wonder if that was one of the emails that got dropped by my mail filter
[05:18:55] biffhero: ericwait: after the -L is all clear, restart myth.
[05:19:06] biffhero: restart the mythbackend
[05:19:46] biffhero: and see if you can connect to 6543 after that. I wonder if it's possible that your backend couldn't connect to the DB for some reason, so it started up, but not in a good state.
[05:19:53] [R]: wagnerrp: ah... i found how it does that custom thihgn... trying to figure it out
[05:21:59] ericwait: still no go

[05:23:01] biffhero: ok, let's troubleshoot.
[05:23:07] biffhero: you got nothing in your iptables?
[05:23:13] ericwait: check
[05:23:16] biffhero: "iptables -L" shows nothing. cool.
[05:23:38] biffhero: netstat -ln | grep 3306
[05:23:43] biffhero: that shows something in LISTEN ?
[05:23:54] wagnerrp: [R]: you figured out how that stuff works? impressive
[05:24:00] ericwait: tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:3306 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
[05:24:03] [R]: wagnerrp: not yet
[05:24:05] wagnerrp: decorators are one of the more esoteric structures in python
[05:24:05] biffhero: cool
[05:24:21] [R]: wagnerrp: looking throug hte hcode... but i figured out how the custom part came into play from searchjobs
[05:24:31] biffhero: netstat -ln | grep -i 6543
[05:24:39] wagnerrp: and even i consider the code i wrote to auto-generate the SQL a bit of a mindf**k when i try to read back through it
[05:24:51] ericwait: null
[05:25:14] [R]: i love awesome code
[05:25:20] biffhero: OK, so I have "LISTEN" there.
[05:25:54] ericwait: somewhere the backend is not listening on the right ports?
[05:26:10] biffhero: ps auxw | grep -i backend
[05:26:16] wagnerrp: [R]: it really wasnt so bad until i incorporated kormoc's much appreciated SQL to search for videos using multiple cast members
[05:27:04] ericwait: two lines
[05:27:04] ericwait: ... --logfile ... ect and the grep
[05:27:18] biffhero: ok, let's get the logfile somwehere we can read it.
[05:27:27] biffhero: wagnerrp: where's pastebin?
[05:27:43] wagnerrp: pastebin.com?
[05:27:51] ericwait: i have an ftp if you want to download it or google docs too
[05:27:56] biffhero: wagnerrp: I thought was had a custom one for this channel.
[05:28:03] wagnerrp: mythtv.pastebin.ca
[05:28:10] wagnerrp: but pastebin.ca can be flaky sometimes
[05:28:20] biffhero: k.
[05:28:57] biffhero: ericwait: doesn't matter, but if you want to use google docs or ftp, that's fine. I suggest you do the following first, however.
[05:30:07] biffhero: /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend stop ; rm -f /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log ; /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend start
[05:30:23] ericwait: will do
[05:30:31] [R]: MythTV.exceptions.MythDBError: MySQL error: incomplete format
[05:30:35] [R]: wagnerrp: i'm gettin' close
[05:30:47] biffhero: that way whatever you give me to read is sure to be a clean log from only this one.
[05:31:26] [R]: wagnerrp: is there some kind of verbose mode i can enbale?
[05:32:01] wagnerrp: sure, i use the same ones as the mythtv binaries
[05:32:14] wagnerrp: MythLog._setlevel('...')
[05:32:16] ericwait: biffhero: the only interesting line is "Empty LocalHostName"
[05:32:46] biffhero: with this recent network change, did you change your hostname?
[05:32:53] ericwait: no
[05:33:25] [R]: wagnerrp: sweet
[05:34:48] biffhero: ericwait: I get the feeling that there's a DB connection going sour here.
[05:35:17] biffhero: ericwait: try this. /etc/init.d/mysql stop ; /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend restart
[05:35:20] biffhero: that ought to fail.
[05:35:45] biffhero: but if your backend starts up and just sits there like it is right now, then we might be on to something.
[05:36:33] biffhero: like, it's possible that your myth backend isn't talking to your mysql server properly.
[05:37:38] ericwait: so by stoping mysql I can no longer run mythtv-setup
[05:37:46] ericwait: i could before
[05:37:54] biffhero: why would you need to run that? wasn't it all working before?
[05:38:13] [R]: db.searchJobs(custom=(('status<%s', JOBSTATUS.DONE),))
[05:38:22] ericwait: when I get a kernel update I have to do some magic for the tunercards to work
[05:38:28] [R]: wagnerrp: basically what you told me... haha
[05:38:31] biffhero: ericwait: ah, I see.
[05:39:39] ericwait: i guess if all else fails I could drop the db and start from scratch (not ideal)
[05:39:40] mzb is now known as mzb_
[05:40:04] biffhero: so we now are sure that your local mythtv-setup uses your local mysql.
[05:40:23] ericwait: there is no other instance that I know of
[05:40:29] biffhero: start up mysql , run mythtv-setup, and are you able to finish that OK?
[05:40:39] ericwait: hold

[05:42:05] kormoc: in some abstract metaphysical way, yes
[05:42:18] [R]: kormoc: how does mythweb match up the jobqueue table to the recording name?
[05:42:19] biffhero: OK. When that finishes, don't have it start the backend.
[05:42:29] [R]: kormoc: does it just search the table for channel and time?
[05:42:32] biffhero: And then… do the "rm" of your backend log file.
[05:42:35] [R]: the recorded*
[05:42:42] biffhero: then do the start.
[05:42:54] kormoc: [R], chanid, starttime

[05:43:42] [R]: hrm, doesn't look too bad

[05:46:59] wagnerrp: no, not at the moment
[05:47:38] [R]: hrm
[05:51:35] ericwait: biffhero: sorry for the delay (baby needed atten) so are you saying to run mythtv-setup without it starting the backend? is that possible?
[05:52:48] biffhero: I thought at the end of the mythtv-setup, it would ask you if you wanted to start the backend.
[05:52:59] biffhero: if it's running, don't worry about it.
[05:53:04] ericwait: nope just if i wanted to fill
[05:53:05] biffhero: is it running?
[05:53:26] ericwait: yep
[05:53:41] ericwait: per ps auxw | grep -i backend
[05:54:13] biffhero: ok. same as before. can't "telnet localhost 6543" ??
[05:54:40] ericwait: correct
[05:54:44] ericwait: i cannot
[05:54:59] biffhero: k. stop the backend, rm the logfiles, and start the backend.
[05:55:08] ericwait: oh wait...
[05:55:12] biffhero: you know how to stop and start the backend by hand? oh?
[05:55:58] ericwait: just looked at the log file and it is saying that it cannot find the mysql server on [old ip address]
[05:56:11] ericwait: why is this dif than the one in the setup?
[05:56:17] biffhero: that might be it.
[05:56:49] biffhero: I heard today in another channel that there was both "mysql.txt" and "config.xml" files that were interesting, and needed to be the same.
[05:56:55] biffhero: do you have a mythtv user?
[05:57:05] biffhero: /home/mythtv

[05:58:53] ericwait: both have the old ip address, i'm guessing they should be changed
[05:59:30] biffhero: give it a shot.
[05:59:37] biffhero: I don't have IP addys in any of mine.

[06:25:15] wagnerrp: theres a lot of checking in the compiling and linking, and if you do something wrong, it segfaults obviously

[08:57:49] Beirdo: that chunk of code is being reworked by the guy who originally wrote it, hopefully he'll be done soon
[08:58:45] Beirdo: one way to avoid it as much as you can... in your browser (where you use mythweb), limit the number of parallel connections
[08:58:49] toeb: k, and this will go to 24 fixes?
[08:59:15] Beirdo: not sure if he's planning on backporting it or not, but it might be possible
[08:59:34] Beirdo: I run my backend at 30 threads and I STILL run out at times
[09:00:08] toeb: will the backend recover after some time on its own?
[09:00:16] toeb: or do i need to restart?
[09:00:18] wagnerrp: eventually
[09:00:21] Beirdo: usually when using mythweb (doing many many preview updates) and a UPnP client
[09:00:26] Beirdo: it should eventually, yes

[09:01:15] Beirdo: yeah, that has a tendency of hitting the backend hard
[09:01:24] rileyp: This is scary http://pastebin.com/9iqPRyGr I have played a little though......
[09:01:32] Beirdo: your browser should let you limit the concurrent connections in the mean time
[09:02:25] rileyp: Table 'mythconverg.jobqueue' doesn't exist.... lots of stuff like this
[09:03:35] rileyp: Table 'mythconverg.settings' doesn't exist table 'mythconverg.oldfind' doesn't exist
[09:03:55] rileyp: theres probably 100 things like that
[09:04:00] Beirdo: look at line 3771
[09:04:18] toeb: Beirdo: do you know if this will break my upcomming recordings? Backend is currently recording and it will again record something, so i miss the window to restart probably..
[09:04:25] wagnerrp: rileyp: that sounds like a corrupted database
[09:04:50] Beirdo: toeb: hmmm, I don't think it should, but I'm not sure
[09:05:10] Beirdo: give it 15min or so after the mythweb stuff has stopped, and it should recover
[09:05:31] Beirdo: I think
[09:05:49] toeb: k, ill try that
[09:05:53] Beirdo: you can test the theory by hitting the status page on mythweb (makes ONE call)
[09:06:12] toeb: Firefox is set to network.http.max-connections-per-server;15
[09:06:18] Beirdo: jeez
[09:06:22] Beirdo: way way too much
[09:06:31] Beirdo: for this use :)
[09:06:35] toeb: hehe
[09:06:43] toeb: what are you using?
[09:06:58] Beirdo: try that at 5 and it will load slower, but shouldn't tip over the backend
[09:07:02] Beirdo: I use chrome
[09:07:08] Beirdo: it also hits too hard
[09:08:03] Beirdo: and I havent' botherd to tweak it
[09:08:13] Beirdo: I'd try 5 or maybe 10
[09:08:33] toeb: ok
[09:08:39] Beirdo: but 15 persistant connections (as keep-alive is what's causing the issue on the server side) is a bit much :)
[09:08:51] wagnerrp: wow... they just gave someone a subway sandwich as a gift on Chuck
[09:08:53] kormoc: firefox 2.x was defaulted to 8
[09:09:04] wagnerrp: thats almost as bad product placement as heroes
[09:09:13] rileyp: wagnerrp, yes it is I suppose I should cut my losses and run mythlink.pl and put all my pre today recordings in mythvideo and start afresh
[09:09:30] wagnerrp: rileyp: better to revert to your backend, and try again
[09:09:34] Beirdo: kormoc: ahhh, that's why it's worse now?

[09:10:05] Beirdo: I hope it gets into trunk soon :)
[09:10:14] kormoc: yeah, they bumped it to 15 for FF 3.x
[09:10:26] kormoc: and there's rumors of another bump to 25
[09:10:32] Beirdo: wha?
[09:10:34] Beirdo: hehe
[09:10:45] Beirdo: oh that will kill the backend real fast :)
[09:10:57] Beirdo: before rewrite anyways :)
[09:11:56] wagnerrp: at least a meatball sub is delicious, rather than a hideously ugly nissan abomination
[09:11:57] Beirdo: it will have to be fixed anyways. This is kinda lame as it is :)
[09:12:09] Beirdo: mmmm, meatball sub
[09:12:34] Beirdo: gah

[09:14:58] waxhead: OK, so has anyone enabled the MythTv-Updates?
[09:15:21] waxhead: I'm wondering if I can do it without hours of reconfiguration getting remotes etc to work again.. :)
[09:15:30] waxhead: Which is why I've held off upgrading to 10.10
[09:15:34] wagnerrp: crap... is this a john mclain episode?
[09:15:43] wagnerrp: well, it worked for stargate
[09:15:48] rileyp: your remote wont work in 10.10 anyway lirc is broken
[09:15:56] rileyp: well was 2 weeks ah\go when i tried it
[09:16:19] ServerSage: waxhead: I went from 10.04 to 10.10 and everything went just ducky. I also did a fresh install of 10.10 on a mac mini 4,1 and had no issues.
[09:16:29] ServerSage: waxhead: My backend still runs 10.04 though.
[09:16:50] waxhead: ServerSage, I'm running a combined front/back end
[09:16:55] ServerSage: rileyp: Ummm, lirc works perfect on my 10.10 frontends.

[09:17:22] ServerSage: waxhead: I can't speak to 10.10 on the backend, I haven't had an opportunity to pull it down and do the magical dist-upgrade.
[09:17:40] waxhead: I also have an AE ORigin box, which has some odd IR Reciever in it, which always causes me pain...
[09:18:23] rileyp: well my dvico remote worked in lucid but not in maverick
[09:18:24] waxhead: so I keep doing stuff until the pain stops, but hten it starts again next upgrade and I always promise to document what I did last time I had to do things
[09:18:29] ServerSage: waxhead: Backup your current system before you pull the trigger.
[09:19:22] ServerSage: rileyp: My homemade receiver worked out of the box, and my mac mini 4,1 receiver worked out of the box. Perhaps it's not a lirc issue but a hardware issue with the dvico.
[09:19:37] rileyp: waxhead just create another partition and put it there and try it out if its all good stop using lucid
[09:20:13] Beirdo: I think I'll just stick with what works

[09:20:47] rileyp: I used the same hardware.conf and it just wouldnt play
[09:20:56] waxhead: 0.24 looks like it has some neato stuff in it though
[09:21:09] ServerSage: waxhead: You can install 0.24 on 10.04.
[09:21:21] waxhead: a mate of mine was showing me xmbc on his windows setup... that's pretty...
[09:21:26] ServerSage: waxhead: dpkg-reconfigure mythbuntu-repos
[09:21:27] Beirdo: no, I mean, why upgrade from 10.04
[09:21:28] rileyp: always have a spare partition on your drive for playing....
[09:21:39] waxhead: he's a died in the wool MS fanboi.. so he was just amazed at it..
[09:22:05] waxhead: ServerSage, I think I'm already at 0.24, I think I had to do something in the last upgrade cycle...
[09:22:27] ServerSage: waxhead: If it works, don't mess with it then. If 10.04 is workign for you, why bump to 10.10?
[09:22:40] ServerSage: waxhead: I did it because the mac mini 4,1 under 10.04 was tragic at best.
[09:22:53] waxhead: how do I get the version of mythtv?
[09:22:57] waxhead: form the commandline?
[09:23:07] ServerSage: apt-show-version

[09:23:53] ServerSage: Or that.
[09:24:29] ServerSage: waxhead: I see a dpkg-reconfigure in your future if you want 0.24.  :)
[09:25:00] waxhead: ServerSage, yep.. same.. I'm looking at this: http://mythbuntu.org/repos

[10:24:25] wagnerrp: ServerSage: no...
[10:24:37] wagnerrp: the matte screens are affected if there is any light
[10:24:40] ServerSage: I've been shopping around for a decent high-end laptop with a matte display. I'm convinced they don't exist.
[10:24:52] wagnerrp: the glossy screens are affected if there is directly reflected light
[10:24:52] Beirdo: car batteries are a world of hurt... lead... sulphuric acid... hydrogen-producing... and high amperage electricity.
[10:25:00] Beirdo: now what could possibly go wrong there
[10:25:05] wagnerrp: except... there will almost always be a directly reflected source
[10:25:47] wagnerrp: his current car, the battery its tucked into the frame
[10:25:55] wagnerrp: hes got to open up the wheel well to replace it
[10:26:00] ServerSage: wagnerrp: I beg to differ. My matte display has no issue with light. Granted, I don't sit outside in the sun, but I never have issues with reflections at all. My glossy display laptop on the other hand gives me whopping headaches unless I'm in a sensory depravation chamber.
[10:26:01] Beirdo: heh

[10:27:19] Beirdo: they have posts under the hood for jump-starting only

[18:43:19] high-rez: Fantastic.
[18:43:27] wagnerrp: im considering adding in a negative response, as well as the videoids of removed videos and new videos
[18:43:38] iamlindoro: I am explicitly asking that people not mess with that code yet-- there is a reason it's walled off
[18:44:13] iamlindoro: It is far from ready and what little time I have is all going towards it-- The only thing people messing with it will do is slow it becoming usable

[18:46:35] iamlindoro: I *want* it to be usable, and I *want* it to be testworthy-- but there's a reason that code is prevented from running, and that's because it's far from ready
[18:47:31] iamlindoro: You would be sorely disappointed if you tried to run it right now, up to and including messy crashes, it doing nothing, or doing very strange things-- You will be much happier if you just show a little patience, which I am explicitly asking for
[18:48:14] wagnerrp: iamlindoro: right now, im just thinking of making the message BACKEND_MESSAGE[]:[]VIDEO_LIST_CHANGE[]:[]<deleted count>[]:[]<id 1>[]:[]<id 2>[]:[]<id 3>[]:[]<added count>[]:[]<id 4>[]:[]<id 5>
[18:48:21] high-rez: Fine. I won't touch it.
[18:48:30] high-rez: I'll just bug the J's for passthrough (it's in ffmpeg now : -)
[18:48:31] ** high-rez ducks **
[18:49:07] iamlindoro: You can bug those people *after* an ffmpeg sync
[18:49:19] wagnerrp: should it pass entries for updated? that way it could pass entries that have changed location, or had metadata pulled

[18:50:06] iamlindoro: wagnerrp: I don't have a firm idea yet-- let me get back to you on it

[18:56:31] Beirdo: per file
[18:57:58] wagnerrp: mytharchive uses... projectx for transcoding?

[19:08:03] Beirdo: yeah
[19:08:35] Beirdo: I know for making DVDs, it will use ffmpeg, and maybe projectx (I remember seeing that in the settings somewhere while testing)
[19:08:51] iamlindoro: I think the projectx step is just a remux to repair discontinuities
[19:08:58] Beirdo: ah

[19:10:10] Beirdo: ISO9660 doesn't allow for huge files
[19:10:47] Beirdo: UDF does, but you need to tell it to make invalid ISO9660 and valid UDF (the option that it gives in the error message) to do so
[19:11:34] wagnerrp: of course then the issue becomes you have 16GB to handle, and 8.5GB with which to do so
[19:11:41] Beirdo: The result is an inconsistent filesystem and users need to make sure that they really use UDF rather than ISO9660 driver to read a such disk.
[19:11:51] Steve_Goodey: The blueray support, is that just for reading or writing as well?
[19:11:52] Beirdo: according to the manpage :)
[19:12:13] wagnerrp: reading only
[19:12:18] Beirdo: yeah. That becomes the secondary issue... How to cram 4 layers of data into 2 layers
[19:12:24] wagnerrp: there is no open source library for bluray authoring

[19:13:44] wagnerrp: i imagine mytharchive could be maneuvered into burning a bluray if you wanted
[19:13:57] wagnerrp: but it would just be plain files on a UDF partition on a disk
[19:14:08] Beirdo: I'm sure it could make a BD-ROM with a bit of tweaking

[19:16:07] iamlindoro: BD-RE is a vast, painful standard. Even parsing it is in its infancy. I spent a full 8 hours making libbluray just *read* BD-RE, let alone write it, which requires a much deeper understanding of the format. Also note that BDMV (purchased movies) and BDAV (home-written BDs) are entirely distinct standards with different file structures and playlist mechanisms

[19:17:53] wagnerrp: either way, its still a /lot/ of work that no one in the open source community has yet done
[19:18:03] iamlindoro: An that work isn't that interesting anyway
[19:18:10] Beirdo: or if they have, they've been hiding it :)
[19:18:47] iamlindoro: More useful to learn to write BDMV and the existing library will "just work" to read it. BDAV is only useful when writing in real time anyway
[19:19:06] iamlindoro: ie, BDAV differs in that it handles real time writing from a home recording deck/live feed
[19:19:34] wagnerrp: i didnt know there were realtime recorders/camcorders
[19:19:35] Beirdo: ahhh, so like a BD camcorder
[19:19:42] wagnerrp: i thought that was something that died out with DVDs
[19:19:58] iamlindoro: There are decks, I got a sample from a guy last week to figure out the structure, I dunno about camcorders
[19:20:06] wagnerrp: considering theyre MORE expensive, LESS reliable, and LESS capable than hard drive based units
[19:21:03] wagnerrp: may as well just stick with a VCR
[19:21:10] Beirdo: hehe
[19:21:24] Beirdo: I remember lugging around a VHS video camera in high school
[19:21:36] Beirdo: ugh, that was painful
[19:21:55] wagnerrp: i had a friend with a DVHS unit
[19:22:13] wagnerrp: one of those big commercial units you see news crews running around with
[19:22:17] Beirdo: yeah
[19:22:24] wagnerrp: his dad got it 'surplus' from his work
[19:22:37] Beirdo: we have some good footage of the cross-country running meet (at the local golf course)
[19:22:55] Beirdo: my friend's dad is a member, so he scored us a cart
[19:23:01] wagnerrp: along with a 1TB non-linear editing system, circa 2000
[19:23:38] Beirdo: but at one point, we were zipping around on a shortcut to get in front of the runners, both cameras running... and he drove through a puddle
[19:23:42] Beirdo: heh
[19:23:55] wagnerrp: *sizzle*
[19:24:08] Beirdo: both camera lenses got hit with muddy water, and both had us going "***BLLEEEEEEP****"
[19:24:29] Beirdo: so when it came time to edit, we had a good sync point for the two cameras :)
[19:24:30] wagnerrp: oh, i though the internals got wet and released the magic blue smoke
[19:24:37] Beirdo: nope
[19:24:51] Beirdo: the teachers weren't too impressed by our language though :)
[19:25:12] wagnerrp: hehe
[19:25:32] Beirdo: both of us... loudly... on both cameras :0
[19:25:34] Beirdo: muhahaha
[19:25:37] wagnerrp: we had some aesthetics class one year, and had to put together some video skit
[19:25:58] Beirdo: of course, the fact that we were the top two students in the school likely kept us from getting suspended :)
[19:26:35] wagnerrp: well the end of the skit ended up with one of the characters getting put in prison, with allusions to the fact that his bunkmate was... amorous
[19:26:45] Beirdo: hehe
[19:27:09] Beirdo: teens + video cameras... not a good combination
[19:27:09] wagnerrp: so for the credits, he stood out of the sunroof in his van, and filmed the local prison as he was driving by
[19:27:22] wagnerrp: with the background music set to Nirvana – Rape Me
[19:27:33] Beirdo: hehehe
[19:27:35] wagnerrp: well that didnt go over well...
[19:28:00] Beirdo: I bet
[19:28:40] wagnerrp: the project was graded for several different points, and it got a 100% for everything but... christianity
[19:29:04] wagnerrp: sure it was a catholic school, and we shared parking lots with the cathedral, but seriously, what kind of nutcase grades on 'christianity'
[19:29:08] Beirdo: heheh
[19:29:33] Beirdo: well at least you kept away from alluding to priests misbehaving
[19:30:02] wagnerrp: yeah, considering our diocese had a fair share of those
[19:30:23] Beirdo: ick. that woulda been a great way to get expelled
[19:30:32] wagnerrp: heck, that school had a few
[19:30:39] wagnerrp: back in the 60'
[19:30:44] wagnerrp: s and 70's
[19:30:45] Beirdo: not too surprising
[19:30:57] wagnerrp: but heres the thing
[19:31:06] wagnerrp: my dad had a few of them as teachers
[19:31:12] Beirdo: we (in a public school) had a teacher who got married to a student (in the 80s)
[19:31:26] Beirdo: at virtual shotgun-point
[19:31:42] wagnerrp: as a teenager, everyone in that school knew those guys were 'strange'

[21:22:41] sphery: wagnerrp: fixed the HDHR issue?
[21:23:13] wagnerrp: sphery: yeah, set up a virtual network adapter for the jail to use, and bridged it onto the network
[21:23:22] sphery: nice
[21:23:26] wagnerrp: now it can handle broadcast traffic properly

[21:24:29] sphery: ok, figure out how to make it work properly?
[21:24:46] wagnerrp: so whether you tell it to access tuner 1 or tuner 2, it always accesses tuner 1
[21:24:47] raptorjr: hello, i have some serious recording/livetv problems with 0.24. Did send a mail to the users list but i'm kind of eager to find a solution. So im wondering if anyone could help in what the logs should include to help find the problem?
[21:25:36] iamlindoro: raptorjr: You didn't update your distro at the same time? Myth doesn't touch the stream *at all* so it's not capable of causing corruption
[21:25:46] sphery: wagnerrp: is that lib code or mythtv code?
[21:26:07] iamlindoro: All myth does it talk to the v4l-dvb api and say "tune to x, start streaming" and dump the resulting stream to disk
[21:26:09] wagnerrp: sphery: my guess is mythtv code
[21:26:17] wagnerrp: a problem with how it reads the tuner number from the database
[21:26:23] sphery: hmmm
[21:26:24] raptorjr: iamlindoro: yes, i did a complete reinstall with mythbuntu 10.10
[21:26:25] wagnerrp: although i can check that real quick
[21:26:49] sphery: if it is our code, should be much easier to fix (rather than waiting on SiDust to find it for us)
[21:26:50] iamlindoro: raptorjr: OK, then your issue is almost undoubtedly a driver regression, not a myth issue-- the issues you are reporting are virtually impossible for Myth to cause
[21:26:57] sphery: especially since it's probably not their fault :)
[21:27:27] iamlindoro: raptorjr: The only time we "manipulate" the data in any way is when we compress video on framegrabbers, and even then we use another API (libav*) to do it
[21:27:28] justpaul (justpaul!alexdelarg@poizon.epicshells.com) has joined #mythtv-users
[21:27:29] sphery: raptorjr: and hardware and signal issues are always still a possibility
[21:27:40] raptorjr: iamlindoro: ok, will try to compile myth with newer dvb-drivers then, or older? maybe that would help
[21:28:09] wagnerrp: yeah, looks like our stuff, since their command line utility (where we get the library from) works properly
[21:28:14] iamlindoro: raptorjr: You could try, but it's a tough to narrow down problem-- It could be the kernel, the drivers, the firmware, etc., but those three would be where my suspicion would naturally fall
[21:28:31] raptorjr: sphery: same hardware that was working perfect with mythbuntu 9.04 and a early 0.23
[21:28:47] iamlindoro: raptorjr: The easiest way to wall off where the blame might lie would be to rever to to a known working distro and *only* update myth
[21:28:55] iamlindoro: meaning self-compile
[21:29:04] sphery: hardware failure doesn't care about upgrade schedules
[21:30:15] raptorjr: iamlindoro: thank you. the problem with the old distro is that i hadn't vdpau working, and some serious problems with getting the new nvidia drivers working. So now i took the chance do begin all over again
[21:30:45] sphery: (meaning nothing says hardware can't fail when at/around the same time you upgrade software--it's as likely to fail then as any other time)
[21:33:55] wagnerrp: this is new
[21:34:08] wagnerrp: scifi used to be a 'upgrade to a minibox or cable box' screen
[21:34:13] raptorjr: so, even if LiveTV works sometimes, and when i switch channels a couple of times it fails, it would still probably be a driver issue?
[21:34:18] wagnerrp: now its just a blue screen with a white cursor in the top left
[21:34:52] wagnerrp: raptorjr: or you have a bad channel scan, and need to update it
[21:35:02] wagnerrp: or you have your tuning timeouts set too low

[21:38:46] high-rez: At least that partially rules out signal as an issue.  :) I'd try dumping the stream while its not working to see what you see.
[21:40:16] raptorjr: high-rez: dont think i understand. if a recording fail almost instant, or after a few minutes, how could i dump the stream then?
[21:41:15] iamlindoro: I still strongly recommend going to a totally working system, and then update *only* myth. If you still have an issue, it's a myth issue. If you don't, it's an OS issue
[21:41:18] high-rez: raptorjr: Iirc, you have two way communications. Multiple entities can send the card tuning commands, and multiple entities can receive the stream from the card.
[21:41:35] iamlindoro: testing random stream dumps, which by definition won't use the same API commands, is a haphazard way of finding out
[21:41:51] high-rez: raptorjr: So you could use say, dvbsnoop, to analyze whats coming out of the card
[21:42:21] iamlindoro: Don't worry about your VDPAU right now-- just go back to where you are certain it works, then upgrade *one* thing, and see if it still works, and if it does, then you know it's your distro/kernel/drivers.
[21:42:48] raptorjr: iamlindoro: mmm, i guess, either way will be hard. mythbuntu 9.04 is missing a lot of dependencies for 0.24, but maybe it is still the easiest way to find out

[21:43:18] high-rez: 9.04 is fine for 0.24. I'm running 0.24 on a 9.04 box right now.
[21:43:59] high-rez: Either way, there's two ways to go about debugging this. Narrowing the problem down (it really looks like its the driver/kernel something of that nature) or starting with a known good baseline as iamlindoro suggests
[21:44:01] raptorjr: high-rez: maybe i didn't try hard enough the first time =) will go back and try again
[21:44:38] high-rez: You probably just need to install a bunch of -devel packages
[21:44:43] high-rez: So you have all the headers you need.

[21:46:12] biffhero: [1:43] <high-rez> 9.04 is fine for 0.24.  I'm running 0.24 on a 9.04 box right now. <<< compiled, or "apt-get install"ed
[21:46:25] high-rez: biffhero: compiled.
[21:47:18] high-rez: That is, the package versions in *buntu (e.g. qt) 9.04 are new enough to work with myth.

[22:04:24] ** wagnerrp really needs to get his system updated so he can start contributing on that again **
[22:04:39] sphery: just set up a vm
[22:04:40] sphery: :)
[22:05:13] wagnerrp: i practically can... without using a VM
[22:06:11] wagnerrp: couple minutes to clone the filesystem, set up a new jail with a separate IP, new database, use the HDHR for a tuner
[22:07:08] sphery: but without the VM, you don't get all the benefits of no direct access to hardware resources, like PCIe bus and GPU and ...
[22:07:43] Beirdo: hehe

[22:12:05] ** sphery goes to get the kill-a-watt **
[22:12:43] wagnerrp: we really do need a CLIENT_IDLE system event

[22:15:40] Beirdo: and also... "use 0.24"
[22:15:49] wagnerrp: i guess i should try disabling it and see if i still get the threadpool issues
[22:16:06] sphery: wagnerrp: why not use a screen saver program to determine idleness rather than implement our own screen saver
[22:16:17] wagnerrp: ... time to start dinner
[22:16:46] Beirdo: there's nothing wrong with using cacti... but it will eat connections for sure if it's coming in on the web/xml interface

[22:48:35] iamlindoro: skd5aner: High Definition Movie
[22:49:19] iamlindoro: skd5aner: In the context of navigation mode/menus, HDMV is the Virtual Machine that runs navigation/events/menus in Blu-ray, and is the control mechanism for both it's own menu type (HDMV Menus) and BD-J menus
[22:49:48] skd5aner: BD-J is Blu-Ray Disc Java?
[22:49:53] iamlindoro: yes
[22:50:06] skd5aner: k, thanks – trying to learn and understand
[22:50:25] iamlindoro: Basically, HDMV is the Blu-ray equivalent of the DVD Virtual Machine-- it's an interface for controlling and displaying all the underlying technologies like BD-J, HDMV menus, BD-Live, etc.
[22:51:06] shipit (shipit!~sumeet@69.170.161.30) has joined #mythtv-users
[22:51:15] iamlindoro: To add complication HDMV is a virtual machine, and it runs the BD-J JVM Java Virtual Machine
[22:51:48] kenni: iamlindoro: talking about playback issues with the internal player, the MPEG1 clips I had which didn't play on 0.24-fixes, they play just fine on trunk after the increase of the decoding probe buffer in r27344.
[22:52:12] iamlindoro: The first menus we support will be HDMV menus and IG (Interactive Graphics)-- but since we access the VM and not particular underlying technologies, when BD-J matures, it will all slot in and "just work" since it's controlled by the same API
[22:52:24] GreyFoxx: I saw a bin of $9 Bluray disc at Walmart the other day.... it looks like it's time for me to finally shift to buying them.
[22:52:32] iamlindoro: kenni: You can mention that to danielk, he might be willing to/able to backport the changes
[22:52:35] kenni: I don't know if danielk22 plans to backport it, but if it isn't considered too invasive, it would probably be a good idea
[22:52:52] iamlindoro: kenni: Couldn't hurt to ask :)
[22:52:52] GreyFoxx: Can anyone recommend any specific line of BR drives? I doubt many still have support for HDDVD but that would be a plus
[22:53:11] kenni: yep, I'll give a week or so, perhaps he already plans to do so
[22:53:15] iamlindoro: I own a LG GGC-H20L which supports both... they're not made any more but still exist as surplus
[22:53:22] kenni: will do
[22:53:59] GreyFoxx: iaml: dual support would be nice since hddvd sets are out there so cheap.... I'll see if I can get one of those off ebay
[22:54:10] iamlindoro: GreyFoxx: note that Blu-ray menu support is still an indeterminate distance off-- I make progress in small and large steps, but tough to tell when the library will be mature enough to cut the cord and make it the default mode
[22:54:37] iamlindoro: GreyFoxx: Also educate yourself on the limitations of decryption in linux (namely, no BD+ and AACS only through MKBv10, meaning mid-2009 or so)
[22:54:43] GreyFoxx: iaml: Yeah. I know you've done great things with the BR support but to be honest the menus aren't too important to me
[22:54:52] iamlindoro: so bargain basement discs should all mostly be decryptable/playable in linux
[22:54:53] GreyFoxx: amd most of what I currently want is a little older
[22:54:56] GreyFoxx: yeah
[22:55:37] iamlindoro: I will say that in some of my experimental code, seeing it all work is very impressive, even though I'm not to the point of drawing menu buttons yet-- but when it fails, it does so spectacularly
[22:55:47] GreyFoxx: hehehe
[22:55:53] GreyFoxx: damn, brb, someone at the door
[22:56:11] skd5aner: iamlindoro: on the limitations, if someone uses something like AnyDVD to rip a blu-ray disc, those limitations go away (minus the issue with displaying menus) correct?
[22:56:33] iamlindoro: skd5aner: Correct, *most* (but not all) ripped disc structures should play nicely
[22:57:04] iamlindoro: skd5aner: The only ones I am aware of that the library still has issues with are those which use multi-angle seamless branching-- the most high profile of those are Pixar movies
[22:57:41] iamlindoro: Specifically, Pixar uses a branching playlist format to support having rendered things like streat signs, papers, etc. in the local language
[22:57:49] skd5aner: and something like AnyDVD should be able to rip the disc in whole correct, just not the main title?
[22:57:52] iamlindoro: so that you see, in spanish mode, spanish street signs, etc.
[22:58:05] iamlindoro: Yeah, AnyDVD will just let you drag and drop the BDMV folder off, which is all you need
[22:58:19] iamlindoro: Come to think of it, I need to test Ratatouille against HDMV mode
[22:58:24] skd5aner: yea, great... for DVDs, I typically go the iso route
[22:58:29] iamlindoro: As the VM may handle the flow properly
[22:58:59] skd5aner: that branching playlist feature is pretty cool
[22:59:17] iamlindoro: Yeah, it's kinda neat (well, it would be if it worked)
[22:59:22] iamlindoro: But it'll come
[22:59:58] iamlindoro: I already have patches to support libbdj and compile it as part of myth, it's just that the library itself isn't far enough along yet to arbitrarily include another 2 MB of source
[23:00:20] skd5aner: same people working on both?
[23:00:24] skd5aner: upstream that is
[23:00:42] iamlindoro: yes, libbdnav, libbdj, and HDMV code are all parts of libbluray
