[02:23:28] wagnerrp: yes
[02:25:18] sdkovacs: thanks. now to figure out how to remove it without destroying my system. It reminds me of IE6
[02:25:48] wagnerrp: if you are using it as a dedicated mythtv box, there wont be anything else to worry about destroying
[02:27:28] sdkovacs: i am using it as a dedicated mythtv box. I removed pulseaudio via yum. Going to reboot now. Thanks.

[02:35:00] [R]: "homebrew" vs the "official" script?
[02:35:33] k-man: [R], yes
[02:35:38] [R]: and the point of that is...
[02:35:44] [R]: you enjoy reinventing the wheel?
[02:36:08] k-man: well... I have tried for over a week to make the script work
[02:36:12] k-man: it does not work for me
[02:36:27] k-man: certainly not out of the box at any rate
[02:36:37] [R]: lol
[02:37:08] k-man: also, imho, the script is re-inventing many parts of what mac homebrew does. granted the script may have been written before brew
[02:37:38] k-man: but given that there is a framework for building things from source like brew (or mac ports or others) it could be interesting to look at using it
[02:38:28] k-man: anyway, I'm currently testing if it will compile qt for me, as I am unable to make the osx-packager.pl script compile qt successfully on my machines
[02:41:02] k-man: which makes it kind of hard to compile mythtv :)

[03:29:06] [R]: :P
[03:29:17] wagnerrp: how are you not happy with it? you dont have one

[03:31:46] wagnerrp: http://mythtv.org/wiki/Release_Notes_0.24
[03:31:57] mattwj2002: I want the prime
[03:32:06] wagnerrp: so you really dont have comcast, you are recording broadcast TV through someone else's antenna
[03:32:46] mattwj2002: no I have comcast
[03:32:57] mattwj2002: I have a cable box
[03:33:08] wagnerrp: i mean... a HDHR through comcast is only going to get the local broadcast channels
[03:33:15] mattwj2002: that I can get all the channels I am paying for
[03:33:46] mattwj2002: wagnerrp: I know how the HDHR works
[03:33:49] mattwj2002: I have one!
[03:34:10] mattwj2002: but I want the prime version
[03:34:29] [R]: wagnerrp: i can be not happy with it for 2 reaesons eitehr a) i used to have it b) ive heard bad things about it c) tahts just how i roll
[03:34:38] wagnerrp: what im getting at is that you wouldnt be replacing existing hardware, like analog or firewire capture off the cable box
[03:34:48] [R]: 3 reasons*
[03:34:56] wagnerrp: if you were, then it would be no argument
[03:35:05] wagnerrp: as getting a cablecard tuner would be cheaper

[04:39:53] [R]: why yes... i live in the 1970s
[04:40:19] k-man: Beirdo, in fact, I do at home
[04:40:31] k-man: not that I have ever listened to anything on shortwave
[04:40:45] k-man: is there anything transmitted in shortwave these days?
[04:41:09] [R]: you mean aside from spy codes?
[04:41:48] Beirdo: k-man: hehe, I doubt you could pick up the signal from Australia, but you could always try :)
[04:42:11] k-man: I have an old Sony world band receiver – used to be my dads
[04:42:17] k-man: straight out of the 70s :)
[04:42:18] Beirdo: 3.330MHz, 7.335MHz or 14.760MHz
[04:42:29] Beirdo: CHU – time signal from Ottawa, Canada
[04:42:55] k-man: I doubt I could receive it, its only a little device with a pull up antena
[04:42:56] Beirdo: with the websdr, I managed to pull in 3.330MHz from the Netherlands, which rather surprised me
[04:43:15] [R]: on a clear night sky
[04:43:18] [R]: doesnt surprise me
[04:43:29] k-man: cool
[04:43:31] Beirdo: I could hear the 1kHz tones per second, and almost hear the Bell.103 modem signals once a minute
[04:43:35] k-man: anyway, I have to go, talk late
[04:43:36] k-man: r
[04:43:43] Beirdo: and teh voice was there, but waaaay in the background
[04:45:08] Beirdo: might be able to get WWVH in AU though
[04:45:30] Beirdo: that's broadcast from Hawaii
[04:49:05] k-man: Beirdo, where do you find out which stations are available?
[04:49:13] k-man: how do I find local SW stations?
[04:49:50] Beirdo: internet searching, primarily, I guess
[04:50:13] Beirdo: Hmm
[04:52:24] Beirdo: http://bpadula.tripod.com/
[04:52:28] Beirdo: that might help ya :)
[04:53:38] Beirdo: hehe, two recent visitors
[04:53:56] k-man: yep, got to go, i'l research later :)
[04:53:59] Beirdo: me in Seattle, and you in Sydney?
[04:54:36] k-man: wagnerrp, incidentaly, macbrew people appear to not want to build .app apps using macbrew (or at least won't accept formula into brew that do that)
[04:54:46] k-man: but it still could be a useful tool for building imho
[05:05:33] Beirdo: oooh
[05:05:50] Beirdo: CHU has moved from 7.335 to 7.850 apparently
[05:07:42] Beirdo: hmph, still don't hear it.
[05:26:15] G: hmm just noticed something interesting (and I half expected it to happen) dual boot machine, both will run mythfrontend, how do I ensure that both frontends have different configuration profiles?
[05:27:05] wagnerrp: give then different hostnames, or enforce different names using the LocalHostName directive in mysql.txt file

[05:28:31] Beirdo: errr variables
[05:28:44] Beirdo: is it just : rate, data = load("file")
[05:29:29] wagnerrp: if load('file') returns a tuple or list with two values, that will work
[05:29:38] wagnerrp: if it returns anything else, that will fail with a runtime exception
[05:29:45] Beirdo: the return is "return rate, data
[05:29:47] Beirdo: "
[05:30:00] Beirdo: from SciPy, BTW :)
[05:30:01] wagnerrp: that will be a tuple
[05:30:15] Beirdo: gonna play with some fft type stuff
[05:30:55] Beirdo: cool
[05:31:43] G: wagnerrp: that was exactly what I needed, massive thanks :)
[05:34:27] Beirdo: OK, that worked. :)

Anyway, they have the tech.. they should increase the framerate already
[08:01:20] seeker: justinh: I agree that framerate needs to be increased. That and interlacing needs to disappear

[12:22:35] wagnerrp: in any case, im thinking the correct location would be inside the tmdb.py script itself, since there is no reason some other script/api would not be able to properly handle URLencoded question marks (%3F)

[13:23:31] Korny2: This is more for my wife and simplicity sakes, like if shes watching tv and switches to a program already being recorded on a another tuner i'd rather it start playing the recording(with commercial flagging going on) then use 2 tuners to watch the same show is all
[13:23:54] EvilGuru: Korny2: Just seems a bit messy, mixing live and recorded
[13:24:26] Korny2: I got spoiled with it in my previous software I was using
[13:24:32] wagnerrp: Korny2: i understand what youre saying, it just adds a number of complications if you start mixing recordings into livetv like that
[13:24:44] wagnerrp: and so in this case, mythtv takes the safe route
[13:24:59] EvilGuru: Live tv is not worked on as heavily as other parts of myth
[13:25:00] Korny2: No problem I was just curious is all, I'll just order another HDHR :P
[13:25:12] EvilGuru: Which is understandable, as many people *never* use it
[13:26:53] EvilGuru: Saying that 0.23 or 0.24 added a feature where it remembers the last channel you were watching
[13:27:18] wagnerrp: thats been around much longer than that
[13:27:32] wagnerrp: as long as i remember, anyway
[13:27:50] EvilGuru: 0.21 used to stick me on the last channel that tuner recorded, rather than what I last watched live
[13:28:25] wagnerrp: ah, i didnt realize mythtv differentiated between the two
[13:29:20] slickrick (slickrick!~INTERWORX@CPEc43dc79b28c7-CM00159a648146.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com) has joined #mythtv-users
[13:29:35] EvilGuru: I know it is my fault for not getting myth to use a different tuner for live stuff, but it is quite a nice addition
[13:31:09] slickrick: hi. i am trying to get my ivtv cards which are connected to regular cable working. right scanning always results in the message "failed to find any channels"
[13:31:25] wagnerrp: you shouldnt be scanning analog channels
[13:31:34] wagnerrp: pull them from your schedules direct account
[13:31:36] EvilGuru: slickrick: You want to use the s-video input
[13:31:57] wagnerrp: EvilGuru: hes actually using analog cable, not capturing from a cable box
[13:32:10] slickrick: wagnerrp: oh thanks. been a while since i reset the capture cards on this system.
[13:32:14] EvilGuru: wagnerrp: Right, I'm with you now
[13:32:37] wagnerrp: slickrick: channels are stored completely independently of capture cards
[13:32:38] EvilGuru: Is that still around? Our cable provider went DVB-C a while back
[13:32:52] wagnerrp: if you redid the capture cards, all you have to do is reconnect the old video sources with the new devices
[13:33:07] wagnerrp: yeah, some providers over here still offer analog cable
[13:33:16] slickrick: wagnerrp: yes, i did that part. i did my hdhr's first.
[13:33:19] wagnerrp: although most are doing it for an increasingly limited number of channels
[13:33:20] slickrick: then the ivtv's.
[13:33:35] wagnerrp: if you reconnected the old video source, you already have all the old channels
[13:33:41] wagnerrp: there is no reason to scan or import them
[13:34:09] slickrick: do i need to go through each input connection for the tuners and hit fetch channels from listings from source?
[13:34:11] EvilGuru: Interesting, surprised that the content providers still allow their stuff to go down it
[13:34:18] slickrick: i deleted all the cards and put them back in.
[13:34:30] slickrick: then i had redo the input connections.
[13:35:10] wagnerrp: EvilGuru: why?
[13:35:37] wagnerrp: slickrick: you only need to set up channels once per video source
[13:35:44] wagnerrp: you are using the old video sources
[13:35:51] wagnerrp: meaning you have already set up channels for them
[13:36:00] wagnerrp: you merely have to redo the input connections
[13:36:09] wagnerrp: you do not have to do /anything/ with the channels
[13:36:10] EvilGuru: Here, at least, almost everything is encrypted over cable, even stuff which is basically free to view
[13:36:11] slickrick: gotcha, thanks for the clarification.
[13:37:03] wagnerrp: many people have no desire to pay an $8-$10 cable box rental to do digital cable
[13:37:29] wagnerrp: and "digital cable ready" tvs are expensive, old, and far between
[13:38:13] wagnerrp: some broadcasters have switched over to cheap "DTAs"
[13:38:25] wagnerrp: a reduced crypto set, and standard definition support only
[13:38:26] slickrick: wagnerrp: you hit the nail on the head. i am in canada and i don't feel like renting cable boxes. i get all my HD via ATSC and the fill in the gaps with the old IVTV's.
[13:38:43] wagnerrp: but then youre still stuck with with an external box you have to change channels through

[13:39:38] Korny2: I find myself wondering how long the HDHR prime will stay useful or if the cable companies will find a way of killing them
[13:40:01] slickrick: my cable provider really sucks (Rogers). basically they love the box rental game. i don't see them ever allowing cable cards. they are also encryption happy ... they encrypt everything, even the channels that are free.
[13:40:14] Korny2: Not literally, but figuratively
[13:40:15] wagnerrp: the HDHR Prime is useful precisely because the cable companies fear the alternative
[13:40:44] wagnerrp: the cablecard system has been in place since 2006, enforced by law
[13:41:02] Korny2: I figure what I'm going to do eventually when I get cable again is get an 3 tuner PRIME and 1 HDPVR for non copy freely channels
[13:41:18] wagnerrp: however there has been almost no digital cable ready tvs or third party sets, because of draconian requirements imposed by cable labs
[13:41:55] wagnerrp: requirements specifically designed to prevent the use of such third party devices, in favor of those cable boxes the cable companies provided
[13:42:06] Korny2: which cost WAY to much
[13:42:12] wagnerrp: in 2009, the fcc deemed cablecard a failure, and started drawing up plans for a replacement
[13:42:13] Korny2: 10 bucks or more a month from comcast I know taht
[13:42:28] EvilGuru: Do you get any choice of cable provider?
[13:42:53] wagnerrp: so in response, cable labs loosened up the requirements to get licensed, in an attempt to show cablecard was still a viable mechanism
[13:42:54] slickrick: so the only option to record the premium channels is something like the HD PVR box and an IR blaster i guess.
[13:42:58] Korny2: No they are usually local monopolies
[13:43:08] wagnerrp: which is why you see this rash of devices coming in the last year or so
[13:43:27] Korny2: But it still depends on the cable company setting the flags
[13:43:29] wagnerrp: it still took silicon dust over a year to get production licensing
[13:44:00] EvilGuru: Any satellite services available?
[13:44:01] wagnerrp: the HDHR Prime was practically ready for use early last year
[13:44:25] wagnerrp: EvilGuru: dish and directtv, both using proprietary broadcast systems and first party receivers
[13:44:28] Korny2: If comcast decides to set everything to copy once (which works for their DVRs) but not the primes it would eliminate the usefulness of the prime
[13:45:01] Korny2: Thats what I worry about
[13:45:05] wagnerrp: Korny2: and would eliminate their 'multi-room DVR' capability, as well as that on Tivos
[13:45:13] Korny2: True
[13:45:27] wagnerrp: comcast is explicitly allowing copy freely on as much as they can get away with to appease the tivo users
[13:45:39] wagnerrp: meanwhile, time warner is f--ing everyone
[13:46:45] Korny2: TW needs to go away, with all the bandwidth limitations they are trying to impose
[13:46:46] wagnerrp: slickrick: you may want to check with your cable company
[13:46:59] wagnerrp: there are no regulation in canada with respect to cablecard
[13:47:17] wagnerrp: but if they offer it, inexpensively, with shows marked copy freely
[13:47:22] wagnerrp: its a much cheaper alternative to a cable box
[13:47:43] wagnerrp: my regional cable company is getting bought out by time warner
[13:47:46] wagnerrp: i fear the future
[13:48:29] EvilGuru: Does recording the output of a cable box and then using an IR blaster work well/reasonably?
[13:48:52] wagnerrp: well enough
[13:49:08] slickrick: so do cable cards allow access to all channels you pay for, or only the 'free' channels?
[13:49:19] wagnerrp: but you need one tuner per recording, and you need a $150-$200 HDPVR if you want HD
[13:49:26] wagnerrp: in addition to the $10/mo box rental
[13:49:41] wagnerrp: cablecards allow all access to channels you pay for
[13:49:47] wagnerrp: your cable box actually has one slotted internally
[13:50:00] wagnerrp: however, mythtv will only be able to access those channels marked 'copy freely'
[13:50:31] wagnerrp: note that those markings are completely independent of what channels are broadcast unencrypted

[13:50:53] wagnerrp: correct

[13:52:23] wagnerrp: theres nothing incorrect about that
[13:52:35] wagnerrp: its their choice, its a /bad/ choice
[13:52:44] wagnerrp: but thats besides the point

[14:12:28] slickrick: wagnerrp: yes.
[14:12:42] wagnerrp: then you DO NOT NEED TO SCAN
[14:12:45] slickrick: but i was rescanning as some of the stations have moved freq's.
[14:13:19] wagnerrp: if you need to rescan to pick up new stations, then as mentioned, you only do it once per source
[14:13:26] wagnerrp: all channels are stored in the source, not the tuner
[14:13:27] slickrick: okay, thanks.
[14:13:41] wagnerrp: so any changes you make to the source affect all tuners linked to it
[14:14:05] slickrick: okay, i understand now. thanks for the clarification.

[17:32:50] wagnerrp: i know why
[17:33:25] wagnerrp: theyre having so much traffic surrounding a story about people with 'radio allergies' flocking to an enforced dead zone in west virginia intended for a radio telescope array
[17:33:57] EvilGuru: I love the radio allergy people, they are not just crazy, they are certifiably crazy
[17:34:24] sphery: seems responsive to me
[17:34:45] sphery: ok, maybe that was just the home page
[17:34:47] wagnerrp: now were going to subject you to a double blind stud.... wait, you might hit me with EM? no thank you!
[17:35:19] sphery: stop 2nd hand radiation!
[17:35:24] ** wagnerrp has a real honest to goodness EM allergy **
[17:35:46] wagnerrp: looking at bright lights (like the sun) induces a sneezing reflex
[17:35:51] wagnerrp: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photic_sneeze_reflex
[17:36:02] wagnerrp: (ok, so maybe its not really an allergy)
[17:36:04] sphery: people in airports should all have to go into a dark, em-infested faraday cage to use their computers and ipads and ...
[17:36:22] sphery: hehe, I never knew there was a real name for that
[17:36:39] sphery: "also sometimes referred to using the backronym Autosomal Dominant Compelling Helio-Ophthalmic Outburst Syndrome (ACHOO Syndrome),"
[17:36:43] sphery: that's just plain annoying
[17:38:14] sphery: hehe, "Dozens of Americans who claim to have been made ill by wi-fi and mobile phones have flocked to the town of Green Bank, West Virginia"
[17:38:31] sphery: dozens... that's quite a flocking
[17:38:51] wagnerrp: the first post is particularly good
[17:39:02] wagnerrp: "Just what WVa needs, a new variety of crazy"
[17:39:17] wagnerrp: "As if the hillbillies out in some of those valleys weren't batshit enough already, now they're inviting in a bunch of tinfoil-hatter paranoid schizos to stay. Expect a significant jump in alien abduction and anal probing reports (above even the current extremely high levels)."
[17:39:48] EvilGuru: wagnerrp: Wait until my company starts selling UFO abduction insurance
[17:40:13] EvilGuru: Upon confirmation of your abduction — via SETI — your family will receive a payout
[17:40:18] sphery: I like the "bad that the 'wireless quiet zone' only refers to a very narrow band of EM radiation. Hopefully they've also banned TVs, VCRs, microwave ovens, cars, police and fire transmitters and church PA systems."
[17:40:26] sphery: er, "Too bad"
[17:42:59] EvilGuru: Sigh, the HDMI 1.3 spec came out in 2006, yet neither my late 2010 monitor or GPU support the high speed feature
[17:43:23] EvilGuru: Even more annoying considering that dual link DVI ports are being replaced by HDMI ones

[17:47:10] kugel_: Why, we might need as many as 12 computers, in the world....
[17:47:29] EvilGuru: I think HDMI will do 1920x1200p60
[17:47:50] EvilGuru: But I've found nothing (monitor or GPU) that will do 1440p
[17:47:57] wagnerrp: not because they want to, just because they are signal compatible with HDMI
[17:48:04] wagnerrp: erm... DVI
[17:48:38] EvilGuru: *1440p over HDMI
[17:49:13] wagnerrp: yeah yeah... i know HDMI 1.3 doubles the bandwidth of SL-DVI
[17:49:57] sphery: what do you have that's doing 1440p? is this the Apple 2560x1440 monitor?
[17:50:12] wagnerrp: there are a number of 27" monitors running that resolution
[17:50:14] EvilGuru: sphery: Dell U2711
[17:50:21] wagnerrp: some from apple, some from dell, i think HP has some too
[17:50:30] sphery: ah, hadn't seen any from the others
[17:51:13] sphery: so what do you mean by, "But I've found nothing (monitor or GPU) that will do 1440p"?
[17:51:29] EvilGuru: sphery: 1440p60 over HDMI as opposed to displayport or dual link DVI
[17:51:32] sphery: it doesn't take a 2560x1440 input? or are you saying it won't do 2560x1440@60Hz
[17:51:37] sphery: ahh
[17:52:02] sphery: why do you need hdmi, then?
[17:52:09] sphery: why not use displayport or dvi?
[17:52:21] EvilGuru: sphery: One of my cards has one DVI and one HDMI
[17:52:24] wagnerrp: because theyre replacing DL-DVI ports with HDMI ones
[17:52:29] EvilGuru: And I have two large screens
[17:53:10] sphery: well, if you were able to get that nice monitor, shouldn't you be able to get a new video card to go with it?
[17:53:45] sphery: or are there none that have the right outputs, anymore?
[17:53:54] sphery: (at least none meaning modern nvidia)
[17:54:57] sphery: FWIW, I'm a fan of displayport--it's the lesser of 2 evils (where hdmi is the greater)
[17:55:29] wagnerrp: displayport is evil?
[17:55:52] EvilGuru: I already use the displayport on one of the screens for plugging my mac in now and then
[17:57:47] sphery: wagnerrp: well, still supports dpcp, which means it could easily be made to be less useful for FOSS users
[17:58:23] EvilGuru: sphery: Surely everything will continue to support HDMI-with-broken-HDPC for years to come?
[17:59:34] sphery: yeah, but breaking the DRM/circumventing the protections put in place by the creators/violating the DMCA/... does not make it a non-evil standard
[18:00:01] sphery: this is why--even with the existence of the SlySoft software thing--I still believe BluRay is a very big evil
[18:00:14] EvilGuru: it is no more evil than DVD
[18:00:24] sphery: dvd is also evil
[18:00:28] sphery: but bluray is more evil
[18:00:31] EvilGuru: the only really evil thing is watermarking
[18:00:42] sphery: because of the fact that they actually make it hard for legitimate users to use it
[18:00:59] wagnerrp: i see (invisible) watermarking as the only legitimate form of anti-piracy
[18:01:03] sphery: with DRM updates and key revocation, etc., that requires owners of STB BluRay players to wait for vendors to release updated firmware, etc.
[18:01:25] wagnerrp: lets the legitimate users do what they want with the content
[18:01:40] wagnerrp: but lets them track down whoever actually did violate copyright and distribute
[18:01:44] EvilGuru: wagnerrp: depends, I do not consider recording FTA TV and then sticking it on a USB stick piracy
[18:02:02] wagnerrp: for your own use? no
[18:02:09] EvilGuru: but newer watermarking techs are along the lines of "if you detect this watermark and you are not playing a blu-ray then stop"
[18:02:10] wagnerrp: for uploading to someone else over the internet? yes
[18:02:12] sphery: therefore, much more evil than DVD--where I can use my DVD player STB and never have to worry about getting home after buying the new Batman movie--after standing in line for 2 of my vacation days--only to find that I can't play the movie for another 2 weeks while I wait for an update
[18:02:18] wagnerrp: in any case, you cant watermark broadcast video
[18:02:32] wagnerrp: and you cant economically individually watermark dvds or bluray
[18:02:54] EvilGuru: wagnerrp: it is not individual, the watermark contains the original form of the content
[18:03:03] sphery: wagnerrp: and you can't economically individually watermark printers...
[18:03:04] sphery: oh, wait
[18:03:22] EvilGuru: then consumer devices will be encouraged to add in code for detecting the watermarks
[18:03:45] wagnerrp: EvilGuru: are you talking about adding a flag that would cause devices to reject the content?
[18:03:57] wagnerrp: i.e. macrovision?
[18:03:58] EvilGuru: wagnerrp: Yep, Sony has already put it on the PS3
[18:04:08] EvilGuru: but it is a watermarked flag
[18:04:11] wagnerrp: ok, i will agree that is evil
[18:04:30] sphery: http://w2.eff.org/Privacy/printers/docucolor/
[18:04:33] wagnerrp: i dont mind its use for tracking
[18:04:51] EvilGuru: I'm fine with tracking
[18:04:53] wagnerrp: but what you speak of is an end run around fair use laws from the 80s
[18:04:58] sphery: Yeah, it could be done at the player level--just like the printer tracking dots
[18:05:03] wagnerrp: like the DMCA
[18:05:22] EvilGuru: but the watermark is added when the disc is pressed or content broadcast
[18:05:36] EvilGuru: it is not unique, just there to allow devices to switch off and reject content when they detect it
[18:06:16] sphery: though I guess with people having an ability to read directly off the disc, they could circumvent it...
[18:06:30] sphery: unless it's done on the drives
[18:06:36] sphery: but too late for that, probably
[18:06:46] sphery: we'll get it with uv-ray
[18:06:46] EvilGuru: it will be in the decoded audio/video
[18:06:55] sphery: or maybe x-ray
[18:07:02] EvilGuru: but you've still got to figure out how to find the watermark and then remove it

[18:22:40] wagnerrp: was your machine IO deadlocked for some considerable amount of time?
[18:29:30] sphery: do you have ntp running (and working properly) on all mythtv hosts?
[18:30:28] sphery: do you see a warning in the logs saying, "Warning! Time difference between the master backend and this system is 600 seconds."
[18:31:13] sphery: (actually, at 300s, it should refuse to start... so maybe it was off by <300 when it was started, but is now off by 600)

[18:32:52] NickHu: wagnerrp: Nope, it was working fine
[18:33:17] NickHu: Logs look normal, except the recording finishes about 13 minutes late
[18:33:21] NickHu: Then the next recording starts
[18:33:59] sphery: so next recording is starting 13min late, too?
[18:35:11] sphery: wagnerrp: fwiw, though, I don't think the scheduler run times had anything to do with the problems that person (was it nu tron?) was having with 2-min late start... He just started a new database, and it started recording on time--but with the same scheduler run times.
[18:35:28] sphery: and it's been /very/ common for scheduler run times to top 6min for some users
[18:36:55] sphery: NickHu anyway, if one recording ends 13min late and another begins 13min late, but all recordings are the proper length (just offset), it sounds a lot like local clock issues
[18:39:36] NickHu: sphery: They're not proper length though
[18:39:47] NickHu: It seems to only do it if I schedule two consecutive programs on the same channel
[18:40:04] NickHu: (I.e. back-to-back sitcoms on E4)
[18:40:06] sphery: then I need you to explain what "it" it's doing
[18:40:16] sphery: I know one ends 13min late and one starts 13min late
[18:40:17] NickHu: Logdumps?
[18:40:20] sphery: but when did they start
[18:40:24] sphery: when did they end
[18:40:39] NickHu: One started 6:00 on time
[18:40:50] NickHu: Ended 6:43, 13 minutes late
[18:41:04] NickHu: The other started right after, ended at 7:02, two minutes late
[18:41:20] sphery: remote backend or master backend?
[18:42:01] sphery: EIT?
[18:44:41] NickHu: Everything's completely local
[18:44:44] NickHu: And XMLTV
[18:45:40] sphery: multiple recording schedules--with the duplicates having an end late and negative start early?
[18:46:08] sphery: (possibly being override rules--which may have disappeared now that the recording completed)
[18:46:22] NickHu: They were the only two scheduled recordings
[18:46:40] sphery: meaning you have only 2 recording rules in the entire system?
[18:46:59] sphery: I'm saying multile recording rules for the same show
[18:47:08] sphery: (s)
[18:47:23] NickHu: They're single
[18:47:23] sphery: that's the only way to configure mythtv to do what it did
[18:47:37] sphery: so unless something outside of mythtv is messing with the flow of time...
[18:47:49] sphery: how many recording rules do you have total
[18:48:42] sphery: anyway, I'm guessing I'd need a --printsched from before the recordings and log files showing the recordings to tell you what happened
[18:49:30] sphery: you could check out the recordid of the recordings and see if they're referencing the recording rule you expect to have recorded them
[18:49:35] sphery: if not, it was a duplicate rule
[18:49:45] sphery: with some start/end time mods

[22:22:07] wagnerrp: stuartm: did you know you have two different wiki accounts?
[22:23:10] wagnerrp: i was curious as to just how many users had signed up for the wiki without making a single edit
[22:23:23] wagnerrp: and there right at the bottom was user number 9, 'Stuartmorgan'

[22:25:30] stuartm: hmm, do we know what email is associated with that? I don't remember creating that account – although I might have done it way back when we first enabled email validation and I was testing it
[22:26:07] wagnerrp: your tase address
[22:26:34] stuartm: huh, ok, that can be deleted I guess

[22:26:40] wagnerrp: we have some 15.5K users (out of 18.7K) who have never made a single edit
[22:26:46] wagnerrp: well, you cant delete users, only block them
[22:27:32] wagnerrp: and out of those, some 6K users are clearly autogenerated, with a 10 character long random name, tied to a mail.ru or list.ru address
[22:27:50] stuartm: heh, ok, well I suppose it serves the purpose of preventing someone else from masquerading as me
[22:27:52] wagnerrp: and another 3600 with a 6 character long random name, and no email
[22:28:49] wagnerrp: its a disappointingly small pool of real wiki users, considering there are so many accounts
[22:29:32] stuartm: I thought we had a setting or mod which would delete completely unused accounts after a fixed number of days
[22:29:48] wagnerrp: although i dont understand why some bot would sit there and generate thousands of spam accounts, only to not use a single one
[22:29:56] stuartm: if it was a mod then it probably got lost in one of the upgrades/reinstalls
[22:30:22] wagnerrp: it would be a very unofficial mod
[22:30:39] wagnerrp: deleting accounts is considered "bad"
[22:30:54] wagnerrp: although i suppose if they never made any changes, there wouldnt be much harm to it

[22:31:27] stuartm: wagnerrp: right, just the accounts which had never made a single edit after 60 days or whatever
[22:31:53] wagnerrp: i only found one such mod on mediawiki, and that involved manual transfer of all edits from one account to the other
[22:32:06] wagnerrp: i suppose something like that would be good to allow reuse of unused names?
[22:32:22] stuartm: are those 6k accounts all confirmed?
[22:33:26] stuartm: wagnerrp: aye, it would be good for that, it's a similar sort of policy enforced here at Freenode to prevent username exhaustion because someone registered ten years ago and never came back
[22:38:48] stuartm: anyway, it's kinda moot, I can't remember what plugin it was
[22:39:57] stuartm: it probably was a plugin, I installed two or three originally to deal with spam and spam-related issues such as bot created accounts

[22:42:45] wagnerrp: none of those 9.6K accounts were authenticated
[22:42:52] wagnerrp: probably made prior to us requiring it
[22:43:03] wagnerrp: theyre all several years old
[22:44:19] stuartm: hmm, that seems to rule out the possibility that we ever had an unused account deleting plugin :)
[22:45:21] stuartm: I must be thinking of something else, one of the forums I managed way back in the day perhaps
[22:47:18] wagnerrp: the email-less block is in the 4–7K block
[22:47:24] wagnerrp: shortly after i registered

[22:57:02] wagnerrp: skd5aner: well you know that program is flawed... to /ever/ recommend the roadrunner dns servers for anything
[22:57:53] skd5aner: well, if you are only basing on ping times... then other criteria wouldn't be counted right?

[22:58:11] wagnerrp: no, but thats all you need
[22:58:38] wagnerrp: i have a shorter ping to my home than to the business RR servers here
[22:58:39] skd5aner: I mean... I wouldn't say "flawed" as much as I would say "working as designed – feature request without a patch, patches welcome" ;)
[22:59:35] wagnerrp: well thats simple, if roadrunner shows up as a winner, laugh it off and choose the next one
[22:59:44] skd5aner: yea, exactly
[23:00:02] wagnerrp: "whats this one that looks really close up here?" "oh, thats garbage data, you dont want that one"

[23:33:39] sphery: skd5aner: pretty cool... I had seen one similar to that, but it disappeared (it polled and reported to an upstream site)
[23:34:03] sphery: reporting being a report of response times for given servers
[23:34:08] skd5aner: was it DNSBench?
[23:35:24] sphery: I was thinking it was something like dnsserverlist.org or somesuch
[23:36:36] skd5aner: ah, just ran across that name in a search when I found namebench
