[01:17:09] ** J-e-f-f-A has never used the "Internet TV" plugin TBH... d'oh! But he's not running 0.25 yet either... d'oh!  ;-) **
[01:19:47] Xeneth: "MythNetvision" plugin is more correct. With Youtube, it comes up with full screen. With Hulu, it just takes you to the page. Looking for aplace I can watch TV full screen.
[01:20:56] J-e-f-f-A: Xeneth: I think for Hulu, you could still watch full-screen, but have to click on the [X] button (my ascii representation of the full-screen button!) manually with a mouse – IIRC. ;-)
[01:21:22] J-e-f-f-A: Xeneth: IIRC, that's due to the 'terms of use'.
[01:21:49] J-e-f-f-A: Which the MythTV team would not knowingly bypass, to avoid legal issues.
[01:25:08] Xeneth: I respect them for that, I really do, but I want full screen.  :) So looking for a site to add using rss.
[01:26:03] wahrhaft: if you want hulu, you could always install hulu desktop and add it to your menu
[01:28:46] Xeneth: I am new to mythtv, so still playing around, not to mention I am not there right now.. Hulu is already an option. I did just go to hulu site and it did give the option for full screen there, did not see it on myth-web.
[01:28:53] Xeneth: maybe the flash plugin?

[01:30:46] wahrhaft: Is anyone using a samsung cable box on time warner? I recently ended up with one and was curious about its firewire capabilities...
[01:31:26] wahrhaft: I can capture video, and using a channel changer program I can use channel up and down, but it doesn't do anything if I send it channel numbers directly
[01:31:35] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: Not me, but I have Motorola boxes. Probably the only thing you could count on is channel-changing, unfortunately.
[01:32:38] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: Of course, that's totally dependent on your cableco, not the box itself, but chances are they've locked up the FW output with 5C encryption.
[01:33:31] wahrhaft: yes, I can get video for all the network stations without a problem but the premium channels don't work
[01:33:42] wahrhaft: what i'd really like is to be able to change channels without an ir blaster
[01:34:13] wahrhaft: oddly enough, it sends back a failure code for the few commands that do work (channel up/down, the arrow keys, and the select key) and sends back success for all the commands that don't work
[01:34:14] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: that's typical.
[01:34:33] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: (getting all but premiums)
[01:35:16] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: Look at 6200ch – It will probably change the channels via FW. Works for my Moto 7200 boxes, and supports tons of boxes other than the original 6200 it was written for. ;-)
[01:35:41] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/6200ch

[01:36:11] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: Although, IIRC, in 0.25 (and maybe 0.24 or 0.23 too), the internal FW channel-changer shares much of the same code.

[01:37:27] ** J-e-f-f-A is still running 0.24, with the intention to upgrade to 0.25.1 soon... ;-) **
[01:37:39] ** J-e-f-f-A is also still using 6200ch.sh ;-) **
[01:37:40] wahrhaft: J-e-f-f-A: I was trying with http://code.google.com/p/stb-command/ on the command line
[01:38:14] wahrhaft: i'll give that other script a try and see what happens
[01:38:17] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: What model is your STB?
[01:38:54] wahrhaft: SMT-H3260, it's the same board as the STM-H3270 without the DVR part
[01:39:31] wahrhaft: I've been searching the google for both without finding too much helpful info
[01:40:00] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: Humm... don't see anything for Samsung or H3260 in the 6200ch script. d'oh! Mostly Motorola boxes, and some "Pace" boxes.

[01:41:08] wahrhaft: there are a couple commands that work, but aren't too useful... and looking at the source for stb-command shows that the only difference between commands is just 1 number that changes
[01:42:27] wahrhaft: so not much room for bugs in that program
[01:42:45] J-e-f-f-A: Humm... looks like google turned up a -users post by 'greg12866' from 8/2011 with no response... d'oh!
[01:43:25] wahrhaft: been there, done that ;-)
[01:46:19] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: Humm... If FW won't work – then I'd suggest getting a M$ MCE receiver with IR Blasters – they are pretty easy to setup, and very reliable, and give you two independent channels of IR blasting, for 2 seperate receivers.
[01:47:09] tlhiv_laptop (tlhiv_laptop!~foo@c-69-254-218-89.hsd1.al.comcast.net) has quit (Ping timeout: 246 seconds)
[01:47:22] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: or, as other threads have turned up, see if your cableco has Motorola or Scientific Atlanta box(es) instead to swap out.
[01:48:43] wahrhaft: hmm, didn't think of swapping it out
[01:49:46] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: but they're probably moving *from* the Motorola / SA boxes *to* Samsung – so that may not be possible.
[01:49:54] wahrhaft: but it really seems like the firewire is broken at the firmware level on the box
[01:50:08] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: It's probably just disabled by the cableco, TBH.
[01:50:46] wahrhaft: why would they disable just the digits and not the arrow keys?
[01:51:02] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: BTW – I ran IR blasters reliably for a number of years (~2005–2009) without many missed channel-changes... And the blasters of an MCE transmitter are simple to setup compared to serial, etc. ;-)
[01:51:11] wahrhaft: and send back a failure response to the commands that work, but a success response to the commands that don't?
[01:51:29] wahrhaft: as a programmer, that blows my mind :-)
[01:51:50] wahrhaft: is the MCE blaster USB?
[01:53:13] wahrhaft: If I have to go to a blaster I kinda wanted something nicer than my current homebrew serial IR receiver dangling out the back of my PC, so maybe the MCE would be a good option
[01:53:16] J-e-f-f-A: Yep.
[01:54:09] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: I ran a serial blaster up until about 2008.
[01:55:11] wahrhaft: there's nothing wrong with it, except it's ugly and I had to make a connector for the serial header on my mobo
[01:56:17] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: In 2009 I upgraded to HD, and was able to use FW to do channel-changes on my HD boxes. I still used IR on one SD (IPTV STB) unit until about 6 months ago, when I cancelled that service.
[01:56:59] mzb is now known as mzb_
[01:57:05] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: so in 2009, I switched from a home-brew serial blaster to using the IR blaster output of the MCE receiver that I already had. It was about 500% simpler than the serial blaster. ;-)
[01:57:18] mzb_ is now known as mzb
[02:05:51] wahrhaft: J-e-f-f-A, thanks for the recommendation. I'd kinda figured I might have to use a blaster, but was holding out hope that someone else had figured out otherwise.

[02:06:52] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: yeah, I don't see any replies for that box – so I don't know what to tell you besides trying to somehow reverse-engineer it (if you have time/resources to do so), or switching the box out, or using IR.
[02:08:13] wahrhaft: i tried a little bit of option #1 already, I ran through all 256 button codes in a loop to see if there there was anything outside the spec that worked
[02:08:13] ** MythLogBot http://code.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/1 **
[02:08:40] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: and up/down worked, but no # keys?
[02:09:03] wahrhaft: the arrow keys, select, exit, and channel up/down
[02:09:07] wahrhaft: nothing else
[02:09:14] J-e-f-f-A: gah. bums!
[02:09:34] wahrhaft: come to think of it, that matches the physical buttons on the front of the box
[02:09:37] J-e-f-f-A: I wonder if it works with "tivo"?
[02:09:45] wahrhaft: maybe they really did turn off the rest of them
[02:10:27] J-e-f-f-A: Well, what I've noticed, is that sending channel-change commands via FW simulates using the remote control on my Motorola boxes... but I can send the commands MUCH faster. (.01 secs between digits via FW)
[02:11:27] wahrhaft: makes sense
[02:11:32] J-e-f-f-A: When I was using IR, I used to send it almost as fast as it would take it... then added a slight amount of delay to help ensure 'proper' channel changing. I was using Dish Network STB's at the time though.
[02:12:35] ** J-e-f-f-A is suprised to see 5 simultaneous recordings going at once right now... 2 on STB in HD, 3 on OTA in HD. ;-) **
[02:13:41] wahrhaft: nice, i wish i got OTA here
[02:13:51] ** J-e-f-f-A sees "Storage Wars", "Necessary Roughness" "America's Got Talent" "Fox 25 News @ 10", and "CSI" all recording. ;-) MuWaHaHa! ;-) **

[02:15:21] wahrhaft: middle of nowhere, OH
[02:15:37] wagnerrp: flyover territory?
[02:15:49] wahrhaft: on the fringe of the Columbus range
[02:15:51] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: Surely you can pick up *something* with OTA with a decent Yagi UHF antenna... ;-)
[02:16:17] wahrhaft: and I'm in an apartment which makes a decent antenna difficult
[02:16:37] J-e-f-f-A: wahrhaft: I use a 75-mile Yagi to pick up stations that are about 22 miles away, but with 2 hills in the way. works out pretty good on all but 2 channels of 12...
[02:17:40] [R]: your antenna is 75miles long!?
[02:18:07] J-e-f-f-A: [R]: hehehe... it's a '75 mile' rated antenna. ;-) Rat-shack UHF-75 IIRC. ;-)

[02:21:13] J-e-f-f-A: And it looks like it's no longer available from RS? eek!

[15:45:38] Sharky112065: Hmm. I found another bug. On my hdhome runs every now and then I cannot tune any channel other than 0,0 when using live tv. But if I schedule a recording and it starts recording, I can then tune all tuners with live tv, even when the recording is complete. HDHOMERUN white box, non Cable Card.
[15:45:50] wagnerrp: 0,0?
[15:46:23] Sharky112065: I have no idea what that channel really is by the guide, it is the default channel in mythtv-setup for each tuner
[15:46:45] Sharky112065: its a standard def channel of some kind, not HD
[15:47:05] wagnerrp: the default channel is just the lowest number in the list, unless you specify otherwise
[15:47:22] wagnerrp: is it possible you are seeing some kind of virtual tuner effect?
[15:47:36] wagnerrp: locked into a mux because something else was already using that tuner?
[15:47:37] Sharky112065: I do not have a 0,0 in my channel list. And it does not show up on the on screen guide.
[15:47:57] wagnerrp: a channel you have marked as not visible?
[15:47:58] Sharky112065: Nothing was using any of the tuners. Not at this time of the day
[15:48:05] Sharky112065: probably yes
[15:48:25] Sharky112065: in the setup for each tuner it has a field for default channel, they all say 0,0
[15:48:43] Sharky112065: and 0,0 is what shows up on the screen when it tunes via live tv
[15:48:45] wagnerrp: right, because you have not told it otherwise
[15:49:00] wagnerrp: its just a spinbox, with the default selection being the first entry

[17:01:39] Sharky112065: Well the windows version of Mythtv is a festering piece of donkey #$%#. I will go pick up a spare drive later today and install Linux on it so I can still boot the other drive when I need windows.
[17:01:53] Sharky112065: Linux version runs great
[17:02:43] wagnerrp: what for?
[17:02:46] wagnerrp: use netboot
[17:03:17] wagnerrp: just set it up so the windows box can alternatively boot to a network install hosted by some server on your network
[17:03:33] Sharky112065: oh yeah, I could do that
[17:04:02] wagnerrp: ive actually got all the computers in my house designed to run PXE and PXELinux first
[17:04:03] Sharky112065: Now I just have to learn how to set that up
[17:04:32] wagnerrp: with a menu offering things like memtest, partition magic, repair tools, before rolling over to chainload the hard drive after a short delay
[17:04:34] Sharky112065: How fast will it be like that?
[17:05:00] wagnerrp: in what way?

[17:05:37] Sharky112065: well resource wise it will not have a HD so eveything will have to xfer over the network, so Im wondering what kind of a performance hit
[17:07:18] wagnerrp: for just mythtv? not really a problem
[17:07:29] wagnerrp: everything is going to get loaded in memory the first time you use it
[17:07:38] wagnerrp: after which, its extremely fast
[17:07:46] Guierrmo (Guierrmo!~Guierrmo@c-76-103-242-184.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[17:08:06] Sharky112065: Windows with mythtv was so bad I would watch the inital live tv channel and when I hit s to see the guide, it kept locking up on me
[17:08:08] wagnerrp: depending on how you configure the PXE boot, some have a read-only data layer, with a memory disk mounted on top of it
[17:08:24] wagnerrp: so all writes only exist in memory (along with all reads in memory)
[17:08:52] Sharky112065: That pc only has 4 GB of ram and is a 2GHz core 2
[17:08:53] wagnerrp: there's at least a couple users who dump a whole linux distribution in a memory disk, and dont even bother with the remote file system
[17:09:00] Sharky112065: will it be fast enough?
[17:09:20] wagnerrp: a 2GHz Core2 may be a bit light for some things
[17:09:33] wagnerrp: youre just doing broadcast HD MPEG2 currently, right?
[17:09:55] Sharky112065: yes, well I watch movies as well avi files and mkv
[17:10:15] wagnerrp: the MPEG2 stuff is not a problem
[17:10:20] Sharky112065: It runs sagetv just fine with no hiccups
[17:10:28] wagnerrp: anything you may have encoded to avi ages ago would not be a problem
[17:10:37] wagnerrp: anything mkv should not be a problem if encoded properly
[17:10:42] wagnerrp: "properly" meaning multi-sliced
[17:10:53] wagnerrp: such that mythtv can decode it multi-threaded
[17:11:13] wagnerrp: if not, a 2GHz Core2 will top out somewhere around 10Mbps per core
[17:11:39] wagnerrp: 10–12Mbps
[17:11:51] wagnerrp: what graphics card?
[17:11:58] Sharky112065: Its just a frontend
[17:12:06] Sharky112065: backend runs on my sever
[17:12:12] wagnerrp: ok?
[17:12:21] Sharky112065: Nvidia 9400
[17:12:37] wagnerrp: oh right, you said it was some rare discrete 9400 didnt you
[17:12:39] Sharky112065: Same as what Ihave in my server and that runs smooth
[17:13:01] Sharky112065: Well I guess its rare now, but it was brand new 3 yrs ago
[17:13:15] wagnerrp: it was rare when it was brand new
[17:13:21] Sharky112065: Gforce 9400 GT

[17:14:10] wagnerrp: those low end 9-series chips were generally only used on mobile systems
[17:14:18] Sharky112065: Well the one in the server has no problems with anything ive thrown at it on Mythtv frontend
[17:14:49] wagnerrp: on linux, you can use VDPAU to pick up just about anything your CPU cant handle
[17:15:01] Sharky112065: Thats what im doing
[17:15:05] wagnerrp: on windows, there is no hardware offload besides the standard hardware scaling and colorspace
[17:16:23] Sharky112065: Im not to worried about the video, I can throw a newer video card in it if I need to. I just really do not wnat to replace the MB, CPU, and RAM
[17:16:42] wagnerrp: if you just want playback, and dont need livetv
[17:17:02] wagnerrp: you can always access the content through the filesystem using something like mythlink, or the asx streams in mythweb
[17:24:41] Sharky112065: yeah, think I prefer to just put a 2nd HD in the computer, when im done with SageTV, ill yank out the windows one

[17:25:25] Sharky112065: Wish I would have know about how slow the windows version was. I wasted 3 days on it
[17:25:41] Sharky112065: nope it just sits in the living room under the tv
[17:26:03] Sharky112065: has a firefly remote that I will have to figure out how to setup
[17:26:11] Sharky112065: I hate IR
[17:26:47] wagnerrp: to be honest, ive not heard of it being slow
[17:27:01] wagnerrp: perhaps try forcing it to use the Qt renderer rather than opengl
[17:27:32] Sharky112065: Ill try that sec

[17:30:39] wagnerrp: not video
[17:30:59] wagnerrp: you said it was the UI that had problems, right?
[17:31:14] Sharky112065: Yep and it still does
[17:31:32] Sharky112065: even with it off of open gl
[17:32:04] Sharky112065: Video playback looked good on the initial tuned channel. Its when I hit s to bring up the guide that it locks

[17:33:23] Sharky112065: and put in thie backend server
[17:34:09] Sharky112065: Luckily I wrote down step by step eveything I did to install/compile on Debian Squeeze.
[17:37:42] wagnerrp: Beirdo: this JSON object youre sending to the log server, it looks like its just a key/value map of eveything defined as a Q_PROPERTY?
[17:37:53] Sharky112065: Nice, computerstop has a 500 GB western digital refurbished HD for 29.97 and a 3 yr warranty
[17:38:04] Sharky112065: way more than I need

[17:38:56] Sharky112065 is now known as Sharky-Sleep
[17:41:13] Beirdo: yes
[17:41:37] Beirdo: that's how you quickly convert QObject -> JSON
[17:41:40] wagnerrp: im guessing order doesnt mattter
[17:41:42] Beirdo: and vice versa
[17:41:46] Beirdo: it shouldn't
[17:42:06] Beirdo: if it does, I'd be rather surprised
[17:42:39] wagnerrp: and you just send the whole thing with no other wrapping across the line?
[17:42:44] Beirdo: if you get an empty (0-byte) message, you need to send back a 0-byte message (heartbeat)
[17:42:47] Beirdo: correct
[17:43:01] Beirdo: as far as I know
[17:43:06] Beirdo: oh wait
[17:43:08] wagnerrp: sounds good
[17:43:15] Beirdo: no, I think zeromq wraps it
[17:43:28] wagnerrp: yeah, i need to send heartbeats at least one per second?
[17:43:29] Beirdo: there is a zeromq setup for python anyways
[17:43:42] Beirdo: just need to reply when you get one
[17:43:43] wagnerrp: (and check for them to restart as necessary)
[17:43:50] wagnerrp: oh, it sends the heartbeat
[17:44:03] Beirdo: yup, although when you start up, you send one
[17:44:09] Beirdo: to prime the pump as it were
[17:44:17] wagnerrp: and the local thread still runs the terminal logs?
[17:44:36] Beirdo: yes
[17:44:51] wagnerrp: --quiet kills terminal logging?
[17:45:01] wagnerrp: or is it two --quiet --quiet s
[17:45:06] Beirdo: it should, I didn't change that part of the code
[17:45:29] Beirdo: http://www.zeromq.org/bindings:python
[17:45:30] Beirdo: BTW
[17:45:53] wagnerrp: yeah, ive got them installed
[17:46:01] wagnerrp: i making them optional
[17:46:09] wagnerrp: use it if available, dont if not installed
[17:46:18] Beirdo: cool. as long as you use that to connect to the logserver, it should work OK
[17:46:43] Beirdo: well, if not installed, you have no logging unless the python bindings provides another path
[17:47:26] wagnerrp: yeah, im going to fall back to the old logging methods
[17:47:40] wagnerrp: the bindings log directly, rather than farming out to the log server
[17:47:44] Beirdo: fair enough. Your maintenance nightmare :)
[17:47:54] Beirdo: heh
[17:48:00] wagnerrp: its most of the same code either way
[17:48:09] Beirdo: yeah, it is
[17:48:38] Beirdo: and with the data protocol being JSON, should be fairly simple to bolt on

[17:53:02] Beirdo: interesting

[17:53:45] Beirdo: probably
[17:56:05] wagnerrp: honestly though, i would expect ZMQ's internal stuff to be far higher performance than anything twisted could provide
[17:56:15] wagnerrp: considering its compiled C, compared to twisted's python
[17:56:38] Beirdo: I think it's just a twisted layer over top of the normal python bindings

[19:23:15] wagnerrp: and im a bit surprised a dual-socket 940 board would even have an AGP slot

[19:24:18] wagnerrp: this machine is always on?

[19:25:06] tlhiv_laptop: yes ... always on ... i use it for MythTV and soon to be Skype
[19:25:13] wagnerrp: scrap it
[19:25:54] tlhiv_laptop: well this machine cost like $7k when i built it in 2004, and i don't want to scrap it ;)
[19:26:08] wagnerrp: no sense carrying around 8yr old power hungry hardware, especially for something that never turns off
[19:26:48] wagnerrp: that thing probably idles at 200W
[19:27:23] wagnerrp: and has less power than any (mainstream) CPU you can buy today
[19:27:36] tlhiv_laptop: here's output from mediinfo --> http://pastebin.tlhiv.org/J6Lhr93n
[19:28:00] wagnerrp: didnt need it, i was looking to see if it was performance related, specifically for the bitrate and slicing settings
[19:28:11] wagnerrp: but for standard definition, you should not have any performance problems
[19:28:36] tlhiv_laptop: how can i verify playback settings are correct?
[19:29:02] wagnerrp: im just saying modern hardware is going to idle at a small fraction of what that DP opteron does
[19:29:16] wagnerrp: and the hardware will pay for itself in reduced power costs in under two years
[19:29:54] tlhiv_laptop: agreed ... but i really don't want to trash this machine yet ;)
[19:31:05] wagnerrp: i dont really know what you want in regards to playback settings on an ATI card

[19:54:54] wagnerrp: i think we might use them for trac
[19:55:17] wagnerrp: there's like half a dozen different APIs it pulls from to reject tickets and comments

[23:04:15] Unknown_Monkey: can anyone help me
[23:07:57] _abbenormal: i guess the bigger ? is what source are you using to get the signal into the system and type of signal you are getting from would answer that ?
[23:08:41] Unknown_Monkey: its just standered cabel from time warner
[23:08:59] _abbenormal: so from there box
[23:10:35] Unknown_Monkey: no there is no box im sorry really i noob
[23:10:55] wagnerrp: analog cable straight off the line?
[23:11:10] wagnerrp: in that case, look for an old PVR-150 or PVR-500
[23:11:16] _abbenormal: so then a tuner card tv type
[23:11:46] wagnerrp: pretty much everything you get will have a tuner
[23:12:06] wagnerrp: since dedicated capture cards tend to be for professional or security purposes, and much more expensive than what youre looking for
[23:13:27] Unknown_Monkey: alright thanks am i going to need a graphics card or is the onboard graphics good enough
[23:19:01] wagnerrp: depends on what the onboard graphics are
[23:23:30] Unknown_Monkey: alright and just to get this straight the cable line goes into the tuner card say the PVR-150 and then say i had hdmi on my motherboard i would push it out through hdmi to the tv
[23:23:43] wagnerrp: correct
[23:23:59] wagnerrp: or, those two functions could be served by two different machines
[23:24:19] wagnerrp: the recording and playback in mythtv are handled by separate applications, that connect to each other over the internet.
[23:24:24] wagnerrp: s/internet/network/
[23:25:33] Unknown_Monkey: Do i have to make two machines on for the backend and one for the frontend or can i only make one machine have it act as both and still do all the funtcions
[23:25:57] wagnerrp: backends record, frontends play
[23:26:07] wagnerrp: you can have multiples of each, and you can run both on the same system
[23:28:58] Unknown_Monkey: alright know i was reading the myth howto and they said that myth makes some big files and they recommend that you run a 64bit filesystem with JFS or did i read that wrong
[23:29:18] wagnerrp: jfs, xfs, ext4, all decent enough choices
[23:29:25] wagnerrp: its simply recommended you dont use ext2/3
[23:29:32] wagnerrp: as those have a nasty issue with deleting large files

[23:38:57] Sharky-Sleep is now known as Sharky112065
[23:39:09] Unknown_Monkey: know the PVR-150 is going to be encoding and decoding with hardware not software so im noting going to need a really fast CPU right
[23:39:29] wagnerrp: encoding only, the PVR-150 does not decode video
[23:40:03] wagnerrp: and while you dont need a "fast CPU", im not sure i like where i think you're heading with that train of thought
[23:40:09] wagnerrp: what were you considering instead?
[23:41:13] Unknown_Monkey: I was considering like a VIA mini itx motherboarb
[23:41:28] wagnerrp: no, absolutely avoid VIA
[23:43:43] Unknown_Monkey: alright just off the top of your head what would you recommend for a intire system but staying with one tower i dont want to make two one for backend and one for frontend
[23:44:21] wagnerrp: i would recommend a little i3, or sandy bridge based pentium
[23:45:01] Unknown_Monkey: alright what card would you recommend thats going to encode and decode
[23:45:11] wagnerrp: decode?
[23:45:20] wagnerrp: thats what your CPU is for
[23:45:38] Unknown_Monkey: oh alright like i said noob
[23:46:53] wagnerrp: this is going to just be a single contained "appliance"? you have no intention of connecting multiple frontends to it?
[23:47:12] Unknown_Monkey: correct
[23:47:46] wagnerrp: are you intending to run your video and control wires through a wall/floor to this machine in another room?

[23:49:45] Unknown_Monkey: i thought about that but i am also thinking about putting it next to the tv
[23:50:21] wagnerrp: tuners and hard drives take up a lot of room, and they are going to make the unit you have sitting next to your TV significantly larger
[23:50:37] wagnerrp: which is the purpose of allowing separate frontends and backends
[23:50:54] wagnerrp: you stick all your tuners and hard drives in a basement or closet somewhere
[23:51:10] wagnerrp: and then you just have a small little netbooted machine that you can hide behind your tv or in a cabinet
[23:51:41] wagnerrp: or you stick it in another room, and get longer cables
[23:52:02] wagnerrp: ive got two frontends on two standard beige towers
[23:52:30] wagnerrp: but one is on a shelving unit in my basement directly beneath the TV, and the other is hidden behind a large entertainment center
[23:52:45] Unknown_Monkey: so i would have this big tower whic is the backend and then this little computer for example like a via mini-itx as the frontend
[23:53:05] wagnerrp: well no, you would still use an i3 or something as the frontend
[23:53:13] wagnerrp: but they make those in mini-itx form as well
[23:53:52] wagnerrp: or if you really want to force yourself into hardware decoding with a CPU that isnt powerful enough to do it on its own, get an ION system
[23:53:57] wagnerrp: avoid VIA
[23:55:09] lapion (lapion!~axion@axion.xs4all.nl) has quit (Ping timeout: 245 seconds)
[23:55:42] Unknown_Monkey: alright i will avoid VIA
[23:56:23] wagnerrp: if you are using hardware decoding rather than a sufficiently powerful CPU, you must have good drivers to run that hardware
[23:56:33] wagnerrp: and VIA drivers for linux just havent been well maintained over the years
[23:56:51] wagnerrp: for hardware video and graphics support, no one has come close to nvidia in some time
[23:57:28] Unknown_Monkey: would a nvidia 9500 be a good card
[23:57:55] wagnerrp: good, but a bit old
[23:58:09] wagnerrp: if you want HDMI audio, you need a GT2xx or newer
[23:59:09] wagnerrp: if youre getting an i3 with integrated graphics, the intel stuff and software decoding should work well enough, but hardware decoding is going to be iffy
[23:59:39] wagnerrp: but if youre looking at A4/A6/A8 systems, plan for something that would allow the addition of discrete graphics
