[17:25:09] | Torne: | but while mythtv is running not only does *it* not make any sound, but nor can any other alsa apps |

[17:25:36] | [R]: | pulse sucks... shocking isn't it |

[17:32:58] | bixter: | is .25 stable enough to run all the time or should I stick with .24? |
[17:33:45] | Torne: | ah; it's because mythtv is suspending pulseaudio :) |
[17:33:55] | Torne: | ..is there a way to make it not do that? |
[17:34:22] | [R]: | bixter: well tehre is no 0.25... so... |
[17:34:31] | [R]: | Torne: get rid of pulse |

[17:34:48] | KungFuJesus: | wagnerrp: I'm getting errors trying to compile mythgame |
[17:35:01] | Torne: | if you want to come to my parents' house and configure their machine such that multiple things can output audio at once without using pulseaudio then feel free |
[17:35:12] | Torne: | otherwise, please don't give useless suggestions :) |
[17:35:33] | [R]: | sure, i require $100/hr |
[17:35:38] | KungFuJesus: | wagnerrp: http://pastebin.com/wVTEM7gr |
[17:35:38] | [R]: | and paid airfare |
[17:35:52] | wagnerrp: | Torne: it should 'just work' |
[17:36:01] | wagnerrp: | most sound card support hardware mixing in ALSA |
[17:36:24] | wagnerrp: | and for the past couple years, ALSA will automatically enable dmix on any hardware that does not support mixing |
[17:36:31] | KungFuJesus: | it looks like some issue with a compiler macro, as it's an "EXPORT" line for a shared library |
[17:36:34] | Torne: | wagnerrp: yes, i am fully aware that it should just work |
[17:36:37] | Torne: | however, it does not |
[17:36:44] | Torne: | even if i manually configure dmix |
[17:36:52] | Torne: | so, i long ago gave up and just let ubuntu use pulse |
[17:36:54] | Torne: | and that worked fine |
[17:36:56] | wagnerrp: | the problem is that all those other applications are currently configured to use pulseaudio |
[17:37:11] | Torne: | wagnerrp: no, it doesn't even work with two instances of aplay at a time |
[17:37:12] | wagnerrp: | so if you disable pulse, all those other applications do nothing |
[17:38:15] | wagnerrp: | what other than mythtv do you actually have playing audio on a frontend? |
[17:38:41] | Torne: | lots of things |
[17:38:44] | Torne: | the frontend machine is a normal pc |
[17:38:51] | Torne: | it gets used to browse the web, run rhythmbox, etc |
[17:39:07] | Torne: | people complain if they have to quit mythfrontend before they can do those things |
[17:39:22] | [R]: | you dont have to quit it unless you are using pulse crap |
[17:39:29] | [R]: | when its at the menu, its not using the audio |
[17:39:39] | Torne: | [R]: it is for me |
[17:39:54] | wagnerrp: | right, mythtv only disables pulse when it is actually in playback |
[17:40:05] | Torne: | Not this version |
[17:40:10] | Torne: | This version is disabling it at startup |
[17:40:22] | Torne: | clearly shown in the log |
[17:40:31] | Torne: | also, i don't want it disabled *at all* |
[17:40:33] | [R]: | so stop using that crap, adn yo uwont have problems |
[17:40:38] | Torne: | [R]: See above |

[18:33:14] | KungFuJesus: | I'll have a look |
[18:33:14] | wagnerrp: | look in /usr/include/zlib.h |
[18:33:53] | KungFuJesus: | they are all prefexed with _Z_OF |
[18:33:56] | KungFuJesus: | prefixed* |
[18:34:06] | wagnerrp: | what distro? |
[18:34:09] | KungFuJesus: | Gentoo |
[18:34:32] | KungFuJesus: | looks like we need a patch file for the ebuild :-p. Using the upstream git overlay |
[18:34:37] | KungFuJesus: | .24.1 |
[18:35:20] | _Anomaly is now known as Anomaly` | |
[18:35:21] | wagnerrp: | my install of gentoo has the proper macros |
[18:35:33] | KungFuJesus: | I'm using zlib 1.2.5.1-r2 |
[18:35:53] | KungFuJesus: | are you using 1.2.5 or something? |
[18:36:03] | wagnerrp: | header says 1.2.5 |
[18:36:11] | KungFuJesus: | gahhh |
[18:36:27] | KungFuJesus: | generally speaking shared libraries should never change the names of functions like that |
[18:36:44] | KungFuJesus: | it's even more annoying when it's preproccessor sugar |
[18:37:55] | KungFuJesus: | well the good part is there's a preprocessor macro telling you what zlib version you're using in the header, so this can be used to determine which macro you use |
[18:38:05] | KungFuJesus: | if I write a patch can you commit it to the upstream overlay? |
[18:38:52] | wagnerrp: | ill have to take a look at the current base stage 3 |
[18:39:25] | KungFuJesus: | base stage 3 is using your version, the issue is that I'm mixing ~amd64 with amd64, but there's no reason this can't work with a simple patch |

[18:41:03] | KungFuJesus: | the reason why I favor gentoo over other distros is there usually isn't 6 months of beauracracy before something is fixed that I need to be fixed. Though my patch to lirc stagnated in the bugzilla for about 4 months...seems to vary between maintainers |
[18:41:13] | KungFuJesus: | you seem to be a pretty active maintainer |
[18:41:33] | wagnerrp: | as evident by the last new ebuild last month... :) |
[18:41:38] | KungFuJesus: | heh |
[18:42:00] | wagnerrp: | its just... it seems odd that they would do something like that |
[18:42:17] | wagnerrp: | changing headers in a single version |
[18:42:17] | KungFuJesus: | the very person that does that is in this channel right now :-p. I won't name names |
[18:42:27] | KungFuJesus: | oh, I meant letting ebuilds stagnate |
[18:42:33] | wagnerrp: | does what? |
[18:42:54] | wagnerrp: | oh, apparently hes been pushing our recent stuff upstream |
[18:43:13] | KungFuJesus: | but yeah, there must have been a reason to change that preprocessor macro to be more specific to zlib. Maybe another project uses it |
[18:43:42] | KungFuJesus: | sorta...without plugins... |
[18:43:51] | wagnerrp: | another project should know better than to use a macro already in use by a 15yr old very very base library |
[18:44:12] | wagnerrp: | and if it were going to be a problem, it should have been a problem long ago |
[18:44:33] | Oleg_: | what hot new features will appear in mythtv 0.25? |
[18:44:37] | KungFuJesus: | so is blue OSD dead? I'm starting to miss it :( |

[18:47:37] | KungFuJesus: | didn't see it in there, what portion of the screen does it occupy? |
[18:47:52] | KungFuJesus: | or is it a menu entry? |

[20:17:23] | [R]: | isn't htere only 1 group for videos? |
[20:17:36] | sraue (sraue!~stephan@xbmc/staff/sraue) has joined #mythtv-users | |
[20:17:38] | bixter: | nah can have multiple groups |
[20:17:58] | [R]: | how? what do you name them? |
[20:18:43] | bixter: | storage groups? just keep adding them in your config as video ones |
[20:18:47] | wagnerrp: | no, you can only have one storage group (Videos) for video |
[20:18:56] | bixter: | i have 20 listed |
[20:18:56] | wagnerrp: | you can define what storage group is used for recordings |
[20:19:00] | wagnerrp: | but recordings != videos |
[20:19:03] | [R]: | bixter: thats one group |
[20:19:08] | [R]: | bixter: with muliptle locations... differnet thing |
[20:21:07] | wagnerrp: | you have 20 different folders listed for storing video? |
[20:22:42] | bixter: | right |
[20:22:56] | bixter: | thats it multiple folders in a group |
[20:23:13] | bixter: | so how do I know what folder a video is in? |
[20:23:18] | [R]: | it doesnt store which directory |
[20:23:22] | wagnerrp: | you dont care |
[20:23:22] | [R]: | thats the whole point of storage groups |
[20:23:33] | wagnerrp: | mythtv searches through all folders to find it at time of playback |
[20:23:48] | bixter: | ah! k thanks |
[20:23:56] | wagnerrp: | bixter: do note, mythtv flattens all folders listed in a storage group |
[20:24:28] | bixter: | i thought it would store the path to save on searching everytime. cool thanks yall! |
[20:24:48] | wagnerrp: | so if for instance, you have 20 different TV shows |
[20:25:02] | wagnerrp: | and you listed each folder as a storage group path |
[20:25:09] | wagnerrp: | mythtv will merge those 20 shows together into one |
[20:26:01] | wagnerrp: | its really intended more to spread content across multiple partitions |
[20:26:13] | wagnerrp: | rather than having to use RAID or spanning |
[20:28:23] | pyther: | What are SCTE channels? |

[22:52:42] | pyther: | orginally it was missing the xmlid so I filled it in, but it still says no guide data |

[22:56:38] | iamlindoro: | because it's constantly refreshing the day 14 days from now, daily |
[22:56:49] | iamlindoro: | and then updating that day when it becomes "tomorrow" |
[22:57:22] | pyther: | I don't think I follow |
[22:57:29] | iamlindoro: | I don't think you do either |
[22:57:42] | iamlindoro: | When you run mythfilldatabase, it doesn't just trash all the data |
[22:58:05] | iamlindoro: | it adds what it gets for the day +14 from now, and replaces the day +1 from now |
[22:58:20] | iamlindoro: | all other days are left alone |
[22:58:31] | hpeter (hpeter!~hpeter@178-83-234-58.dynamic.hispeed.ch) has quit (Read error: Operation timed out) | |
[22:58:37] | iamlindoro: | thus your schedule data, say, +7 days from now won't be touched again until it's +1 days from now |

[22:59:13] | iamlindoro: | --dd-grab-all says "don't just download +1 and +14, download everything and replace everything I've got" |
[22:59:39] | pyther: | ahh so since data wasn't fetched for the first time around, it won't update that channel until later |
[22:59:42] | pyther: | got it |
[22:59:44] | iamlindoro: | correct |
[22:59:49] | iamlindoro: | so you would be fine right now |
[23:00:00] | iamlindoro: | but if you are desperate to see all two weeks worth, run --dd-grab-all |
[23:00:11] | pyther: | and I don't care about what is on that channel too much |
[23:01:05] | pyther: | Now what are SCTE channels? I had a whole bunch found when I did a QAM scan on my cable, but none seemed usable |
[23:01:46] | iamlindoro: | SCTE means Society of Cable Television Engineers, and basically means it's a US Cable TV channel |
[23:02:17] | iamlindoro: | Not all usable channels have SCTE signalling, and not all SCTE signalled channels are usable in myth |
[23:02:45] | iamlindoro: | It could be, for example, that your providers channels only fully comply with SCTE when they're broadcasting Video on Demand |
[23:02:46] | pyther: | Was it safe to ignore all those SCTE channels? |
[23:03:09] | iamlindoro: | As safe as ignoring any other channel-- you may have discarded something usable, can't say with actually trying to watch them |
[23:03:36] | pyther: | I found only like 3 that were usable and they were public access channels, all the others cased myth to crash |
[23:03:51] | pyther: | at least the ones I tried |
[23:04:05] | iamlindoro: | what is your definition of crash? |
[23:04:19] | pyther: | the frontend would freeze up |
[23:04:31] | iamlindoro: | well that's not a crash, then |
[23:04:46] | pyther: | usually the first time around it would kick me out of the tv viewer, but the second time around myth would just become unresponsive |
[23:05:10] | iamlindoro: | Eventually Myth will time out even if it's getting nothing-- but most users won't wait that long |
[23:05:11] | pyther: | and I'd have to go in and change the starting channel or else I'd run into the same problem all over again |
[23:05:28] | iamlindoro: | So it's not a crash at all, just a channel that is no longer broadcasting, or lying about its encryption status |
[23:05:36] | pyther: | iamlindoro: how long does it take? |
[23:05:42] | iamlindoro: | Lending credence to it probably being Video On Demand content that someone has stopped watching |
[23:05:50] | iamlindoro: | multiple minutes |
[23:06:05] | pyther: | hmm then maybe that was exactly the case |
[23:06:23] | pyther: | it's my understanding that Time Warner Cable will only broadcast the local channels unencrypted |
[23:06:31] | pyther: | be nice to get basic cable unencrypted :( |
[23:07:32] | pyther: | I wonder how well the WinTV-DCR-2650 works with myth |
[23:07:50] | iamlindoro: | For Time Warner Cable, "not at all" |
[23:08:00] | iamlindoro: | same as every cablecard device with TWC |
[23:08:13] | iamlindoro: | For Comcast, FIOS, or RCN, it, the Prime, and the Ceton work great |
[23:08:13] | pyther: | what is the deal with TWC and cable cards? |
[23:08:26] | pyther: | They refuse to provide them? |
[23:08:26] | iamlindoro: | They set all channels as copy-once or copy-none |
[23:08:31] | iamlindoro: | meaning you can't use them with MythTV |
[23:08:42] | pyther: | eww yuck |
[23:09:47] | pyther: | so that basically means that the stream can be received once and not passed on, correct? |
[23:10:10] | iamlindoro: | It means the stream cannot be used, period, in MythTV |
[23:10:36] | pyther: | why because myth can record it? I'm just trying to understand the techincal reasoning |
[23:10:43] | iamlindoro: | CableCard tuners will not pass it to any application other than Windows Media Center if it's not Copy-freely |
[23:10:52] | iamlindoro: | It's not a technical problem, it's a DRM problem |
[23:11:09] | iamlindoro: | For a tuner to support CableCard, it must be authorized by CableLabs |
[23:11:09] | pyther: | ahh, so it the fault of the cable card manufactors then? |
[23:11:26] | iamlindoro: | No, it's the fault of the cartifying body, which requires they follow their rules |
[23:11:29] | iamlindoro: | er certifying |
[23:11:44] | pyther: | understandable, why is Windows Media Player given an exemption? |
[23:12:20] | sphery: | WMC follows the rules and has built-in DRM |
[23:12:22] | iamlindoro: | It's not an exception-- they pay the many millions of dollars for a playready license, which in turn allows them to capture the content, so long as they abide by the rules-- namely, the recordings are encrypted and only watchable on windows MCE |
[23:12:29] | sphery: | that's the whole reason Vista was so broken |
[23:12:41] | iamlindoro: | So you can't commercial skip, edit, transcode, copy, move, or otherwise use the recordings, other than to watch them in MCE |
[23:13:01] | iamlindoro: | and for Copy-never content, it is only watchable within a window of 60 minutes of recording |
[23:13:04] | iamlindoro: | and then is destroyed |
[23:13:12] | sphery: | because MS had to change the entire hardware abstraction layer--which meant all driver vendors had to throw away all their code and rewrite everything from scratch--so that MS could get end-to-end DRM support into Windows to allow things like MCE + CableCARD |
[23:13:25] | sphery: | (and things like Blu-Ray/HD-DVD playback and ...) |
[23:13:32] | iamlindoro: | Since MythTv imposes none of those restrictions, and has not paid millions for a PlayReady license, it cannot and will not ever support Copy-once or Copy-never content |
[23:13:42] | pyther: | make sense |
[23:13:55] | pyther: | makes me hate the game even more |
[23:14:15] | sphery: | and even if we had millions, it's impossible to impose such restrictions in F/LOSS, so... |
[23:14:16] | pyther: | more of reason to not even bother with anything other than OTA channels when I move out |
[23:14:21] | sphery: | +1 |
[23:14:37] | sphery: | I dropped cable and satellite... I'm voting with my wallet |
[23:14:41] | iamlindoro: | Or move someplace where the provider is customer friendly |
[23:15:01] | iamlindoro: | ie, Comcast, FIOS, or RCN territory, where I enjoy all my channels with my Cablecard tuner, no muss, no fuss |
[23:15:08] | sphery: | and when I convince 200 million of my closest friends to do the same, I'm sure the industry will rethink their DRM implementation/restrictions/requirements |
[23:15:45] | pyther: | iamlindoro: it's kinda interesting though since comcast has their bandwidth caps |
[23:16:05] | iamlindoro: | I don't have a bandwidth cap |
[23:16:32] | pyther: | iamlindoro: did they revote their caps? |
[23:16:41] | iamlindoro: | I've never had a bandwidth cap |
[23:16:49] | pyther: | a while a back that was the big news thing |
[23:16:51] | iamlindoro: | You are likely thinking of another provider |
[23:16:55] | pyther: | http://arstechnica.com/old/content/2008/08/it . . . ctober-1.ars |
[23:17:31] | pyther: | Is there a comcast outside of the states? |
[23:17:37] | iamlindoro: | No |
[23:17:49] | sphery: | I thought it only got so far as "limited market area" testing |
[23:18:00] | iamlindoro: | That said, the vast majority of legit users would have a very, very hard time using 250 GB a month |
[23:18:12] | iamlindoro: | My entire office of 100 doesn't use 250 GB a month |
[23:18:16] | sphery: | yeah, I wouldn't come close to it--even with streaming pandora 24/7 |
[23:18:41] | sphery: | (and I don't use that much pandora by a long shot) |
[23:19:06] | pyther: | I've used over 100GB some months |
[23:20:00] | pyther: | Personally, I'm not fan of any bandwidth caps |

[23:22:04] | sphery: | perhaps now is the time for me to get vnstat installed on my systems so I can do real stats (just because I'm curious how much I use) |
[23:23:37] | pyther: | sphery: if you use openwrt, in the latest release (10.03.1) there is a real nice vnstat luci-app |
[23:23:55] | sphery: | yeah, I was wanting per-system and at-the-gateway stats |
[23:24:14] | pyther: | ahh makes sense |
[23:24:33] | sphery: | hehe, probably doesn't--it's kind of useless info, but I've been curious |
[23:24:41] | pyther: | kind a hard to filter internet traffic on a per system basis |
[23:24:48] | pyther: | since vnstat will collect all lan traffic |
[23:25:05] | pyther: | always cool to look at the numbers |
[23:25:11] | sphery: | mainly because I want to know exactly what I use so I have a better idea of just how much data is involved in the limits that mobile providers have |
[23:25:26] | pyther: | I got real close to use the 150GB ATT cap a few months |
[23:25:29] | sphery: | mainly for discussion purposes--since I don't have data plans |
[23:25:50] | pyther: | wireless data plans are crazy expensive |
[23:26:02] | sphery: | right, I want to know how much data goes into and out of each system |
[23:26:18] | sphery: | the gateway will give me internet traffic |
[23:26:29] | sphery: | (I only care about internet traffic as a combined total) |
[23:27:08] | pyther: | I should setup vnstat on my myth box |
[23:27:13] | pyther: | that'd be some interesting data |
[23:27:25] | sphery: | yeah, that's what I'm thinking |
[23:27:29] | sphery: | just curious info |
[23:27:38] | sphery: | and it's pretty low-resource, so, why not? |
[23:28:08] | pyther: | exactly |
