[00:03:14] | justinh: | considering your cable STB has less CPU power inside, likely.. not really amazing :-) |
[00:04:13] | justinh: | remember that a good proportion of tha $35 is the cost of the SoC |
[00:04:41] | mattwj2002: | SoC? |
[00:04:46] | mattwj2002: | summer of code? |
[00:05:10] | justinh: | system on chip |
[00:05:59] | mattwj2002: | oh yeah got |
[00:06:00] | mattwj2002: | ya |
[00:06:14] | wagnerrp: | right. the GPU, memory controller, and various IO controllers cost more than the ARM core |
[00:07:01] | mattwj2002: | yeah to be honest |
[00:07:35] | justinh: | the same or very similar SoCs are probably inside many a network media tank/player/STB |
[00:07:36] | mattwj2002: | the case, power supply, ethernet cable, and hdmi cord cost more than the pi....not to mention the keyboard and mouse |

[00:08:09] | wagnerrp: | no. i mean the licensing and production of that ARM core probably amounted to $0.75 |

[00:08:42] | justinh: | and yet, as far from perfect as openelec & raspbmc are, they're still zillions of times better than other embedded products |
[00:08:47] | mattwj2002: | why are ARM processors so cheap? |
[00:08:55] | wagnerrp: | because there's nothing to them |
[00:09:11] | justinh: | you buy a license to make em |
[00:09:18] | wagnerrp: | i would be surprised if there are even 10M transistors dedicated to that ARM core |
[00:09:25] | mattwj2002: | O.o |
[00:09:29] | wagnerrp: | there's easily several times that in the embedded GPU |
[00:10:24] | justinh: | it does well for what it is, but I'd never stake anything on it being 'best frontend evah' |
[00:10:43] | justinh: | for price, for size... for power.. maybe |
[00:10:49] | justinh: | performance-wise.. nah |
[00:11:04] | justinh: | mind, I'd like to see the gap bridged somewhat |
[00:11:08] | clever: | ive yet to even try to run a frontend on my pi, and omxplayer cant seek the mpg files from a pvr150 |
[00:11:22] | mattwj2002: | I never was sayin performance wise |
[00:11:26] | mattwj2002: | I mean for the price |
[00:11:38] | justinh: | for the price, no argument |
[00:11:52] | mattwj2002: | even a used desktop would not be as good for the price |
[00:12:03] | justinh: | it'll be loads better than a networked media play costing several times as much |
[00:12:08] | clever: | i'm sure you can get cable company DVR level performance out of an rpi, for a much better price |
[00:12:22] | clever: | but getting the same performance as mythfrontend on modern hardware, wont be as easy |
[00:13:09] | justinh: | yeah but.. by the same token I've got a blimmin C2D in my frontend, and it's absolutely wasted most of its life |
[00:13:50] | clever: | i REALLY need to make time to upgrade things, Library API : 0.23.20100404–1 |

[00:14:01] | justinh: | anyway.. I'm beat. All this php hacking has made me tired |
[00:14:03] | clever: | i'm still running a pre-git version of myth.... |
[00:14:15] | mattwj2002: | pre-git version? |
[00:14:23] | mattwj2002: | you haven't uploaded the changes yet? |
[00:14:24] | clever: | back when the project was still svn only |
[00:14:25] | mattwj2002: | :) |
[00:14:31] | mattwj2002: | oh my |
[00:14:44] | mattwj2002: | time to upgrade :D |
[00:14:55] | clever: | topic says stable release is 0.26.0, and ive only got 0.23, looks like a 2010 release |
[00:15:21] | mattwj2002: | :P |
[00:16:07] | mattwj2002: | clever: what type of tuners? |
[00:16:17] | clever: | pvr-150, single tuner |

[00:16:39] | wagnerrp: | i'm having a tough time figuring out just how many transistors are in an ARM11 |
[00:17:26] | wagnerrp: | ARM9 is only 111K transistors |
[00:17:37] | wagnerrp: | ARM11 may well be only a few hundred thousand |
[00:17:39] | mattwj2002: | only 111k? |
[00:17:41] | mattwj2002: | O.o |
[00:18:10] | wagnerrp: | note, that's just the core |
[00:18:16] | mattwj2002: | oh |
[00:18:32] | wagnerrp: | it doesn't include the memory controller, IO controllers, graphics, or any of the other bits that make up a SoC |
[00:19:11] | clever: | from how it works and behaves, it seems that the GPIO on the rpi is effectively running at FSB speeds |
[00:19:32] | clever: | its memory mapped io, so everything has to miss the L1/L2 cache, then cross over to a slower clock domain |
[00:19:40] | wagnerrp: | that's why that 700MHz ARM11 core in your Pi is only equivalent to a 250MHz P2 from 15 years ago |
[00:20:01] | wagnerrp: | far fewer transistors mean it's doing far less work per cycle |
[00:20:11] | mattwj2002: | that makes sense |
[00:20:27] | clever: | my old master backend was a ~300mhz P2! |
[00:20:36] | clever: | reschedule sucked, 30 seconds or more |
[00:21:03] | clever: | and oddly, when i removed the pvr-150, it lost the ability to detect all the drives |
[00:21:18] | clever: | 1/3 would always vanish on bootup |

[00:24:04] | mattwj2002: | if I had a 300 Mhz P2 to play 1080i video I would use that too |
[00:24:06] | mattwj2002: | :) |
[00:24:11] | mattwj2002: | if it worked |
[00:24:16] | mattwj2002: | for my needs |
[00:24:44] | clever: | no hd capture cards, it had only just enough to software decode 480i mpeg2 |
[00:25:47] | clever: | under some conditions (nfs livetv), it was unable to decode due to minor bugs inflating cpu usage |
[00:27:32] | sheppard: | lol |
[00:27:41] | sheppard: | 300mhz p2 playing 1080i |
[00:27:44] | sheppard: | best of luck |
[00:27:51] | clever: | basicaly, nfs + livetv means the mod-time on the file keeps changing (appending to it) |
[00:27:57] | sheppard: | I remember my p3 550 katamai having issues with high bitrate xvid |
[00:28:04] | clever: | that constantly nukes the read-ahead cache |
[00:28:10] | clever: | forcing the nfs client to eat MANY times the needed bandwidth/cpu |
[00:28:19] | clever: | with decent hardware, you dont notice it |
[00:28:28] | mattwj2002: | sheppard: I don't even have a p2 anymore |

[02:09:43] | mattwj2002: | oh |
[02:09:45] | mattwj2002: | haha |
[02:09:49] | mattwj2002: | I meant |

[02:09:56] | mattwj2002: | ;) |
[02:11:39] | Guest74304: | Hi, I am running v26 using an HDhomerun prime for the tuner. Some HD channels don't record, however I can tune to them via live TV and then hit 'r' and they will record. How do I track down what is going on? |
[02:12:41] | Guest74304: | i guess i could try 20130413beta1, but i'd rather try logging commands in myth and/or the hr |
[02:13:22] | mattwj2002: | wagnerrp: |
[02:13:37] | mattwj2002: | you would probably know better me |
[02:14:26] | wagnerrp: | don't know what might cause that one |
[02:14:49] | wagnerrp: | since live tv and schedules recordings are really the same exact thing |
[02:14:54] | Guest74304: | any suggestions or pointers to how to debug this? |
[02:15:19] | wagnerrp: | need to see backend logs |
[02:16:01] | Guest74304: | do i need to turn on logging or that type of logging? |
[02:16:19] | wagnerrp: | depends on how you ran mythbackend |
[02:16:32] | mattwj2002: | var logs? |
[02:16:53] | wagnerrp: | /var/log/mythtv/ is a good place to try |
[02:19:12] | Guest74304: | ok, i'll poke around there and see if i can figure anything out |

[02:35:56] | mattwj2002: | wagnerrp: I have an idea |
[02:36:17] | wagnerrp: | you're using the nvidia drivers, correct? not the nv or nouveau drivers? |
[02:36:25] | splurben: | I'm using nvidia |
[02:36:29] | mattwj2002: | when you do playback doesn't it use a different multiplex than when you play back a recording? |
[02:36:44] | mattwj2002: | maybe he only has one multiplex enabled |
[02:36:45] | splurben: | 313.10 |
[02:36:57] | wagnerrp: | when you play back a recording, you're not using any multiplex, because you're not actively recording anything |
[02:37:14] | mattwj2002: | I mean video that has started to record sorry |
[02:37:24] | splurben: | live tv and recorded tv don't play correctly, if I record a show and transcode it, I can view it |
[02:38:12] | splurben: | I've tried both types of cards I have, the SAA and the CX and they both do the same thing, one multiplex of 3 channels are not displayed correctly |
[02:38:14] | wagnerrp: | the only reason a livetv capture might work and a scheduled recording wouldn't is because of "quick tune" |
[02:38:33] | wagnerrp: | there is an optional faster tuning strategy that is available for livetv |
[02:38:45] | wagnerrp: | and if your channel scan is slightly wrong, one might work while the other fails |
[02:38:49] | splurben: | i turned off quick tune, but both live and recorded don't display, I can only watch things recorded from that multiplex if I transcode |
[02:39:03] | splurben: | maybe I'm not using the term multiplex correctly |
[02:39:22] | wagnerrp: | but in this case, it's not that it's having trouble tuning, right? you're recording just fine, you just aren't playing it properly? |
[02:39:23] | splurben: | I've retuned all the channels |
[02:39:40] | splurben: | recordings are fine, tuning is on slow and it's been recently retuned |
[02:42:32] | splurben: | Why would one multiplex not playback correctly? Is there a way to get MythTV to use an alternate method of playback on one multiplex? |

[02:51:58] | mattwj2002: | hmm |
[02:52:03] | splurben: | is there a way to show that information while the channel is playing, the Audio is perfect by the way |
[02:52:11] | mattwj2002: | weird |
[02:52:48] | mattwj2002: | all I was thinking was the signal was too low that it took transcoding to clean up the picture enough to play |
[02:52:54] | mattwj2002: | I think I am totally wrong |
[02:53:18] | mattwj2002: | sorry splurben I don't think I'll be much help to you |
[02:53:25] | splurben: | I've been using Mythtv since 2006 but I've never seen anything like this, it's like WIN (the station holder) has put a defective element in the signal to make 'recoreders' malfuntion |
[02:53:49] | mattwj2002: | 2006? |
[02:53:52] | mattwj2002: | oh my |

[02:57:32] | splurben: | I'm really happy, but I'd love to find a way to watch multiplex 8 on my system, aside from transcoding every show |
[02:57:50] | wagnerrp: | like a BttF video wall? |
[02:57:53] | mattwj2002: | ota tv has been bad ever since especially rural areas |
[02:58:07] | mattwj2002: | bttf video wall |
[02:58:08] | mattwj2002: | haha |
[02:58:32] | mattwj2002: | even in Minneapolis OTA hasn't been real nice |
[02:58:46] | mattwj2002: | but I have a big water tower near me :( |
[02:58:57] | splurben: | What's OTA? |
[02:59:01] | mattwj2002: | over the air |
[02:59:09] | mattwj2002: | DVB-T in Australian terms |
[02:59:24] | mattwj2002: | ASTC in US terms |
[02:59:29] | mattwj2002: | *ATSC |
[02:59:30] | splurben: | Yes well, I'm near our tower, Australia only has cable in major cities. |
[02:59:42] | mattwj2002: | same here |
[02:59:52] | mattwj2002: | we have satellite in rural areas |
[03:00:04] | wagnerrp: | we have cable in rural areas |
[03:00:11] | wagnerrp: | that was the whole original purpose of cable |
[03:00:22] | mattwj2002: | wagnerrp: that is true but only in town |
[03:00:23] | wagnerrp: | tv for people in areas that can't get broadcast reception |
[03:00:31] | mattwj2002: | I guess I should have been a little more clear on that |
[03:00:41] | splurben: | So, can I look for anything with ffprobe to see what might be preventing these channels from playing correctly, do you want to see a sample of the video? |
[03:00:52] | mattwj2002: | my family lives in the sticks |
[03:01:02] | wagnerrp: | just 'dd' a 50MB chunk of it, and stick it somewhere for us to test |
[03:01:12] | mattwj2002: | dd? |
[03:01:16] | mattwj2002: | you can do that? |
[03:01:24] | wagnerrp: | sure, it's a transport stream |
[03:01:30] | mattwj2002: | O.o |
[03:01:36] | wagnerrp: | it's explicitly designed that you can pick up anywhere and start playback |
[03:01:37] | splurben: | yup, cool, give me two minutes |
[03:02:37] | mattwj2002: | I just didn't know dd had that ability |
[03:02:55] | wagnerrp: | had what ability? |
[03:03:18] | mattwj2002: | to copy from a video source....it makes sense after you explained it though |
[03:03:28] | mattwj2002: | I always think of dd as a disk tool |
[03:03:38] | wagnerrp: | well it is |
[03:03:47] | wagnerrp: | it copies one device node or file to another |
[03:03:51] | wagnerrp: | that's all it does |
[03:04:15] | mattwj2002: | good point |
[03:04:45] | mattwj2002: | I am going to sound old fashion here but I wish we still had analog channels in the US |
[03:04:48] | wagnerrp: | it's just that the TS files used for broadcast television can be split and spliced as desired with minimal ill effects |
[03:05:12] | mattwj2002: | digital tv over the air doesn't work well for me |
[03:05:14] | mattwj2002: | never has |
[03:05:45] | mattwj2002: | and I live in a metro |
[03:06:08] | wagnerrp: | with high-rises? |
[03:06:54] | mattwj2002: | yes |
[03:07:04] | wagnerrp: | you likely have multipath issues |
[03:07:10] | splurben: | it will be finished uploading in 8 minutes, I'll post a URL then. |
[03:07:14] | mattwj2002: | :( |
[03:07:28] | wagnerrp: | newer tuners are better at handling that than old |
[03:07:57] | mattwj2002: | maybe a newer tuner can help me |
[03:08:08] | mattwj2002: | my current hdhomerun I purchased in 2007 |
[03:08:15] | mattwj2002: | I found the old receipt in my e-mail |
[03:08:16] | mattwj2002: | :P |
[03:11:01] | mattwj2002: | I have a wintv-dcr-2650 though |
[03:11:11] | mattwj2002: | I haven't played much with ota on that though |
[03:13:19] | wagnerrp: | or any... |
[03:13:40] | mattwj2002: | any would probably be more precise yes |
[03:13:57] | wagnerrp: | if you had, you would have very quickly realized it didn't do ATSC |
[03:14:06] | mattwj2002: | it doesn't? |
[03:14:11] | wagnerrp: | QAM only |
[03:14:17] | mattwj2002: | O.o |
[03:14:17] | mattwj2002: | crap |
[03:14:25] | wagnerrp: | same with the Prime and InfiniTV |

[03:26:44] | wagnerrp: | then yeah, just make a new ticket on trac, and add that link |
[03:27:04] | wagnerrp: | we (jya) did a resync a few days ago in master |
[03:27:15] | wagnerrp: | i need to rebuild my frontends, and i'll check that video against it later tonight |
[03:27:37] | mattwj2002: | frontends? |
[03:27:42] | mattwj2002: | how many do you have? |
[03:27:43] | mattwj2002: | :) |
[03:27:48] | wagnerrp: | three |

[03:29:57] | splurben: | wagnerrp: I have a 35GB / month traffic limit on that account, should be enough for you to run that link all around the place if you like |
[03:30:22] | wagnerrp: | if you did, i was just going to re-upload it to some free file host |
[03:30:37] | wagnerrp: | or maybe finally get around to writing one for mythtv |

[04:14:02] | jya: | a tad had to follow the conversion looking at the history… splurben can you summarise the issue you're seeing ? |
[04:15:11] | wagnerrp: | the video is playing behind strobing black macroblocks |
[04:15:27] | wagnerrp: | most of the image is black, you only get a couple blocks of each frame visible |

[04:16:06] | jya: | wagnerrp: you can reproduce this issue yourself? |
[04:16:18] | wagnerrp: | yeah, master, couple months old build |
[04:16:28] | wagnerrp: | he posted a link to a 50MB chunk of video |
[04:16:39] | splurben: | jya: one set of stations is not decoding correctly on MythTV 0.26_pre20120706, we receive 15 stations on 4 multiplexes, the stations on one multiplex don't decode to the screen correctly in LiveTV or Recordings, they work however, if I transcode them |
[04:16:47] | jya: | wagnerrp: ah, so it's not a new bug... |
[04:17:06] | wagnerrp: | do we have another similar ticket on trac already? |
[04:17:10] | jya: | I don't care then :) |
[04:17:19] | wagnerrp: | oh, no... not something caused by the resync |
[04:17:29] | wagnerrp: | i mentioned it as it may have been FIXED by the resync |
[04:17:38] | jya: | I see... |
[04:17:39] | splurben: | jya: I have GeForce 8600GT, three dual-decoders CX and Philips |
[04:17:50] | wagnerrp: | i haven't yet tested it with a recent build of mythtv |
[04:17:59] | jya: | I can certainly give it a try… |
[04:18:03] | splurben: | So is this an old problem? |
[04:18:19] | jya: | splurben: have you tried playing the mpeg-ts file in another player? what do you get> |
[04:18:37] | wagnerrp: | zoomplayer/ffdshow on windows works fine |
[04:18:50] | splurben: | I'll test with VLC, and mplayer2 now. |
[04:18:54] | wagnerrp: | actually... looks like it's a VDPAU bug |
[04:19:03] | wagnerrp: | the software decoder plays it just fine |
[04:19:16] | jya: | what about latest mplayer with vdpau then? |
[04:19:27] | jya: | not mplayer2 |
[04:20:30] | splurben: | steam plays okay in mplayer, mplayer2 and vlc |

[04:20:48] | jya: | anyhow.. once I'm done with the ac3 fix, and if my wife let me I'll look into it |
[04:20:51] | splurben: | (vlc gets the deinterlace wrong) |
[04:20:59] | jya: | splurben: but are you also using vdpau in those player? |
[04:21:10] | splurben: | vdpau is in use to GeForce 8600GT |
[04:21:12] | jya: | splurben: or change myth to use a software decoding profile and report |
[04:21:28] | wagnerrp: | FFS... why does logitech want to add a plugin to firefox? |
[04:21:49] | wagnerrp: | what software could there possibly be to make my mouse work better with my browser? |
[04:21:51] | splurben: | do I need to recompice MythTV without VDPAU, or can I just change it in mythtv-setup |
[04:21:58] | splurben: | recompile |
[04:22:04] | wagnerrp: | just change the playback profile in mythfrontend |
[04:22:14] | wagnerrp: | you had to manually select a VDPAU profile in the first place |
[04:22:16] | splurben: | okay, one tick |
[04:22:20] | wagnerrp: | the default profile is software decoding |
[04:22:28] | Guest74304: | http://pastebin.com/rsXTFsu8 |

[04:38:38] | splurben: | okay |
[04:38:49] | jya: | splurben: mplayer doesn't do any deinterlacing.. so it's not going to look right |

[04:52:54] | Guest74304: | wagnerrp, manual can for channels? I don't know all the options, is there an faq or how to for comcast/hdhomerun? |

[04:53:17] | splurben: | jya: sorry, I understand now, I found it, I have Primary deinterlacer Bob (2x, HW), do I just delete the deinterlacer setting, I don't see an option to disable all deinterlacing, (it's shows custom filters vdpauskipchroma,vdpaucolorspace=auto as well, I didn't enter these.) |

[04:53:59] | Guest74304: | and a 'M' card |
[04:54:10] | jya: | splurben: actually try with bob2x first. then edit that provile and change the deinterlacer to none |
[04:54:27] | wagnerrp: | a prime should never get any tuning errors, since mythtv doesn't actually do the tuning |
[04:54:29] | wagnerrp: | the prime does |
[04:54:46] | splurben: | jya: I have tried bob 2x aldready, I'll switch to none |
[04:56:00] | splurben: | no change with deinterlace disabled on active VDPAU Slim profile with deinterlace set to none on primary and fallback |
[04:56:02] | Guest74304: | so what would be different between live and scheduled record making live work but schedule fail? |
[04:56:12] | splurben: | jya: no change with deinterlace disabled on active VDPAU Slim profile with deinterlace set to none on primary and fallback |
[04:56:17] | wagnerrp: | no idea |
[04:56:22] | jya: | splurben: so if you use OpenGL profile: good, any VDPAU profile : no good |
[04:56:30] | jya: | which nvidia drivers are you using ? |
[04:57:18] | splurben: | jya: 313.30 (it was the same with 310.44) |

[04:58:07] | splurben: | jya: correct OpenGL profiles work, VDPAU profiles don't work |
[04:58:36] | Guest74304: | wagnerrp, maybe it's in how myth receives the stream? |
[04:59:09] | wagnerrp: | ive not heard of anyone having such problems |
[04:59:16] | Guest74304: | or i need to grab the prime log some how |
[04:59:45] | splurben: | jya: I'm getting a little bit of stuttering with OpenGL High Quality |
[05:00:08] | jya: | what's your CPU? |
[05:00:19] | wagnerrp: | i7 something or other |
[05:00:28] | wagnerrp: | nothing that should have any difficulty with any software decoding |
[05:00:43] | jya: | with OpenGL High-Quality, a 8600GT isn't going to cut |
[05:00:48] | jya: | for HD that is |
[05:02:20] | splurben: | jya: yup, i see the stuttering only on HD channel |
[05:02:33] | jya: | change to OpenGL standard |
[05:03:01] | splurben: | jya: I've changed to OpenGL Normal, (I can put a newer card in there, I've been wanting to add HDMI port anyhow) |
[05:03:32] | jya: | now need to find out the problem… likely a driver issue and nothing much we can do.. |
[05:03:41] | jya: | you did have issue with mplayer using vdpau right ? |
[05:03:44] | jya: | or you didn't |
[05:03:50] | jya: | got interrupted, I forgot |
[05:04:40] | splurben: | no, mplayer is perfectly viewable with vdpau |
[05:05:03] | jya: | that's good.. at least that give something to compare it with |
[05:05:09] | Guest74304: | wagnerrp, so where should i go from here? |
[05:05:45] | splurben: | jya: OpenGL Normal, only stutters slightly very occasionally, but it sounds like I'm going to need to upgrade that coard, would you prefer that I wait so we can do more field testing? |
[05:05:56] | wagnerrp: | no idea. i have no experience with primes or any cablecard tuners |
[05:06:45] | jya: | splurben: just use the normal playback |
[05:07:04] | jya: | opengl deinterlacer are nicer, but require a pretty powerful card |
[05:08:08] | splurben: | jya: I build computers, I've got a choice of 6 new nVidia and 2 AMD, I'm assuming nVidia is still the go |
[05:08:29] | wagnerrp: | on linux, absolutely |
[05:08:59] | Guest74304: | mattwj2002 seemed to, i'll chech back later. thanx for the effort |
[05:08:59] | jya: | splurben: definitely nvidia… ATI is still very much hit & miss |
[05:09:19] | jya: | and with myth, if you enable OpenGL you get plenty of weird stuff, including kernel panic |
[05:09:19] | splurben: | jya: I'm on Gentoo 12.1, AMD64. I'll put in a better nVidia card. Shall I report if the bug still exists with newer nVidia card? |
[05:09:58] | jya: | splurben: nah… i have a 430GT and 320M here… but i'm fairly certain we would see it there too |
[05:10:01] | splurben: | jya: 40% of the systems I build are linux and I always go with nVidia for them (unless they use embedded Intel for basic stuff) |
[05:10:06] | jya: | was this playing fine with 0.25 ? |
[05:10:36] | splurben: | jya: played fine with 0.25 |
[05:10:52] | splurben: | yja: played fine until about 3 weeks ago |
[05:12:06] | jya: | ok... |
[05:12:19] | jya: | is that h264 content? |
[05:12:33] | jya: | ah no, I remember it being mpleg2 from the mplayer log |
[05:12:43] | splurben: | jya: is that to me? (h264) |
[05:13:05] | jya: | splurben: the mplayer log you provided showed mpeg2 |
[05:13:15] | splurben: | jya: yup |
[05:13:19] | jya: | Selected video codec: [ffmpeg12vdpau] vfm: ffmpeg (FFmpeg MPEG-1/2 (VDPAU)) |
[05:14:18] | splurben: | jya: can I supply any other output to you to help? |
[05:14:31] | jya: | nah that'll be fine... |
[05:14:45] | jya: | open a trac ticket if you haven't thanks |
[05:15:07] | splurben: | jya: sorry, point me to 'trac ticket' please |

[17:45:25] | CiaranG: | Drive #1, nearly full, has livetv and recordings, and Drive #2, loads of space, has more recordings. For some reason, myth decides the best place for a new recording is the nearly full drive, and because someone is watching live tv (weird, I know, but there you go), it decides to delete the recording as soon as it's recorded it. |

[19:17:34] | Guest74304: | me use claw hammer on Guest74304 next..... |
[19:18:00] | mattwj2002: | sweet Guest74304 |
[19:18:04] | mattwj2002: | so I fixed it? |
[19:18:05] | mattwj2002: | :) |
[19:18:23] | mattwj2002: | or at least pointed you into the right direction |

[19:22:05] | mattwj2002: | O.o |
[19:22:58] | Guest74304: | i think i built myth first on a fresh install of the then current core 2 or 3 :) |

[19:33:03] | mattwj2002: | I know people give me crap for it |
[19:33:13] | mattwj2002: | but it works well for what I use it for |
[19:33:57] | Guest74304: | the kim-1 was fun. had to boot strap it by programming it via a 16 key keypad then saving the entered program off to casset tape. what fun! |
[19:34:30] | mattwj2002: | hehe |
[19:34:32] | Guest74304: | i've not fired up byraspberry pi -B |
[19:34:58] | Guest74304: | soon. might be a front end :) |
[19:35:07] | mattwj2002: | openelec works well |
[19:35:20] | mattwj2002: | make sure you have the codecs installed |
[19:37:39] | wagnerrp: | the codecs are hardwired into the graphics core |
[19:37:47] | Guest74304: | btw, what would adding xbmc to my system get me? I'm at a loss to see any significant gain |
[19:38:18] | mattwj2002: | Guest74304: the rpi A is disappointing |
[19:38:43] | mattwj2002: | Guest74304: |
[19:38:52] | mattwj2002: | xbmc has a mythtv frontend |
[19:39:36] | wagnerrp: | Guest74304: the gain is that mythtv does not have any support for openmax, so it cannot take advantage of the hardware decoders on the RPI |
[19:39:41] | wagnerrp: | effectively making it worthless |
[19:40:04] | wagnerrp: | add in the fact that mythtv will run extremely poorly on a machine with under 200MB of available memory |
[19:41:05] | Guest74304: | but you loose real time com skipping and adj playback speed |
[19:41:36] | wagnerrp: | sure, but it actually runs at all |
[19:42:32] | Guest74304: | hmm,, well, ok, point to wagnerrp |
[19:42:54] | mattwj2002: | Guest74304: here is why I started using it |
[19:42:58] | Guest74304: | but on pc's |
[19:43:07] | mattwj2002: | my backend couldn't play hd programmin |
[19:43:21] | wagnerrp: | on PCs, for recordings, there is on advantage |
[19:43:29] | mattwj2002: | so I tried a raspberry pi |
[19:43:32] | wagnerrp: | for other non-recorded media, some prefer the xbmc interface |
[19:43:58] | mattwj2002: | I all ready had the pi for fun |
[19:44:04] | Guest74304: | it does look a bit more polished |
[19:44:48] | Guest74304: | so might get better wife approval |
[19:45:12] | justinh: | requires more training to use IMHO. I'm so used to mythtv I find it harder to use |
[19:45:21] | Guest74304: | although i hope to someday add in smarthome and zoneminder |
[19:46:27] | Guest74304: | maybe xbmc would be a good fit for my android MK802-III |
[19:46:59] | Guest74304: | matt, do you just have the one FE? |
[19:47:22] | mattwj2002: | that is complicated |
[19:47:41] | mattwj2002: | I mainly have the rpi for a frontend |
[19:47:51] | mattwj2002: | but I use to on my laptop |
[19:51:42] | Guest74304: | i guess i could have xbmc as the default on the FE's in the home and switch to myth FE when I want to use it |
[19:52:13] | mattwj2002: | Guest74304: my only point was that openelec works well for the pi |
[19:52:50] | mattwj2002: | I really need a wireless keyboard for my pi :-/ |
[19:53:51] | Guest74304: | darn, no openelec for andoid |

[20:06:01] | justinh: | so mythTV may be 'ugly' or 'lacking in bling' by comparison, it's way easier to use IMHO. I do like some things though.. like it treats things with parents as folders & when you go in, you don't still see the list of parent items |

[20:40:33] | mattwj2002: | what are talking about justinh? |
[20:40:37] | justinh: | xbmc |
[20:40:42] | mattwj2002: | oh yeah |
[20:40:44] | mattwj2002: | I hear you |
[20:40:52] | mattwj2002: | my remote doesn't work with openelec |
[20:40:56] | mattwj2002: | :( |
[20:41:20] | justinh: | having to use a mouse with a media centre is just... well.. it may aswell be a games controller I have to use |
[20:42:18] | justinh: | I guess in some cases it protects users from their kids... not being able to delete a source with the remote might be an advantage in some areas |
[20:42:25] | mattwj2002: | justinh: that is why I am getting a wireless keyboard and mouse |
[20:42:54] | justinh: | and not being able to timestretch.. oh boy. but I guess that's one of the limitations of hardware decoding too |
[20:43:13] | justinh: | I said *guess*... I dunno if it is or not |
[20:43:16] | mattwj2002: | time stretch? |
[20:43:22] | mattwj2002: | you mean time shift? |
[20:43:31] | justinh: | no I mean time compress/expand |
[20:43:39] | justinh: | speed up & slow down video playback |
[20:43:45] | mattwj2002: | oh okay |
[20:43:47] | justinh: | mostly speed up |
[20:44:07] | mattwj2002: | I never found that to be that useful |
[20:44:08] | mattwj2002: | :) |
[20:44:24] | justinh: | oh I do. So does my wide |
[20:44:27] | justinh: | *wife |
[20:44:30] | mattwj2002: | lol |
[20:44:34] | mattwj2002: | your what? ;) |
[20:44:47] | justinh: | watch a Prof. Brian Cox thing in half the time.. and it sounds like an ordinary person speaking |
[20:44:57] | mattwj2002: | hehe |
[20:45:03] | justinh: | watch the soaps at 120% speed.. get more over with sooner |
[20:45:18] | mattwj2002: | or you could turn it up to 800% |
[20:45:31] | mattwj2002: | stuff would actually happen in real time that way ;) |
[20:46:10] | mattwj2002: | soaps are sooo slow |
[20:46:24] | justinh: | mattwj2002: you've not seen Eastenders I take it |

[20:46:34] | justinh: | or do you mean the storylines last too long? |
[20:46:40] | justinh: | mattwj2002: give it a go. I DARE YOU |
[20:46:49] | mattwj2002: | I just mean |
[20:47:06] | justinh: | some lines go on & on & ON for months |
[20:47:11] | mattwj2002: | yup |
[20:47:43] | justinh: | like hurry up, just get hooked on heroin & sold into prostitution already girl.. and be gone |
[20:47:50] | mattwj2002: | hehe |
[20:48:02] | mattwj2002: | justinh: have you seen revolution? |
[20:48:08] | justinh: | oh no, they have to string it out & tie it in with a big telethon thing in October... |
[20:48:12] | justinh: | nope |
[20:48:20] | mattwj2002: | I love that show! |
[20:49:28] | mattwj2002: | it is basically 15 years in the future .... nothing electric works for the last 15 years |
[20:49:36] | mattwj2002: | lots of violence |
[20:49:42] | justinh: | so it's about life in my home town :-) |

[20:50:12] | justinh: | that's USA TV all over. Too much violence. Nothing like enough nudity or sexual content unless it's on HBO |
[20:50:23] | mattwj2002: | I agree |
[20:50:28] | mattwj2002: | we need more boobs on tv |
[20:50:29] | mattwj2002: | :) |
[20:50:44] | justinh: | and that Revolution show.. is only on Sky1 over here. And I ain't paying an extra £25 a month to get it |
[20:51:00] | mattwj2002: | 25 pounds a month |
[20:51:01] | mattwj2002: | :O |
[20:51:09] | mattwj2002: | ouch! |
[20:51:29] | mattwj2002: | I don't pay that much for my cable |
[20:51:40] | mattwj2002: | granted I basically have an antenna |
[20:51:51] | mattwj2002: | but it is through my cable provider |
[20:52:12] | justinh: | I'd get other channels I don't want in with the cost though |
[20:52:21] | mattwj2002: | true |
[20:52:31] | justinh: | about 100 of them |
[20:52:35] | mattwj2002: | I pay like $13 a month for basic cable |
[20:52:46] | mattwj2002: | closer to $20 after taxes |
[20:53:59] | mattwj2002: | I don't have a lot of time to watch tv |
[20:54:07] | justinh: | we get *basic* cable, but if you want any 'Premium' US shows, you have to pay through the nose |
[20:54:25] | mattwj2002: | that sucks |
[20:54:48] | justinh: | shows which often start on terrestrial FTA channels get snapped up & go subscription only |
[20:54:53] | justinh: | 24 went to Sky |
[20:54:56] | justinh: | Lost went to Sky |
[20:55:06] | mattwj2002: | :( |
[20:55:22] | justinh: | I don't even know if the terrestrial channels are even bothering trying to bid anymore |
[20:55:38] | mattwj2002: | so what is on terrestrial channels? |
[20:55:50] | justinh: | a lot of home-grown shows & repeats |
[20:56:18] | mattwj2002: | a lot of good shows in the US |
[20:56:27] | mattwj2002: | are now on cable |
[20:59:26] | justinh: | only cable? |
[20:59:51] | mattwj2002: | well some yeah |
[21:00:09] | justinh: | sucky, but then TV was always going to become two-tier |
[21:00:36] | mattwj2002: | true |
[21:01:02] | mattwj2002: | I have better things to do with my time then tv anyways |
