[00:31:29] Lexridge: Hi everyone. I have 4 tuners now. Two 1600s and one 2250 dual. Is it possible to do one channel scan and integrate it will all four tuners?
[00:33:28] Lexridge: Technically, they should all be able to pick up the same thing using ATSC/QAM only (no analog).

[01:04:48] Hydr0p0nX: you can have one channel line up associated with multiple tuners, at least for cable subscription, I'd assume the same would work for OTA
[01:10:19] Lexridge: okay, Cool! Would it actually allow for recording multiple sources simultaneously.
[01:12:09] Lexridge: I think the database would probably just pick the next available tuner, right?
[01:16:39] Lexridge: It is stupid to maintain 4 different identical channel lineups, when one will do it. Thanks.

[01:41:28] Hydr0p0nX: yes
[01:41:37] Hydr0p0nX: it picks the first available tuner
[01:41:43] Hydr0p0nX: I do this with 7 attached to cable
[01:41:57] Hydr0p0nX: don't think i've ever actually exceeded 3 or 4 in use tho

[20:50:55] bill6502: for stopping (and starting) you'll recall the suggestion to go into mythtv-setup and look for Backend start command (and the stop command on the same page)
[20:51:13] bill6502: and replace them with the proper commands for Mythbuntu
[20:51:36] Bray90820: bill6502: Actually it's an issue with disabling it

[21:00:54] Bray90820: bill6502: Should the start and stop commands in the backend be "mythtv-backend stop" and "mythtv backend start"
[21:01:08] bill6502: Bray90820: you could type: sudo service stop apache2 and then edit /etc/init.d/apache2
[21:01:37] bill6502: Bray90820: after the #! line (the 1st line) just put: exit 0
[21:01:51] bill6502: then if you ever want to turn it on again, remove the exit 0
[21:02:48] bill6502: or, if you want to completely remove it, there's likely an apt-get remove apache2 command, but I'll let you look for that
[21:03:15] Bray90820: sudo service stop apache2 gives me "stop: unrecognized service"
[21:04:53] bill6502: Bray90820: no, mythtv-backend stop (and start) aren't commands. try the command. did you find that the earlier suggestion (a few days ago) didn't work? as I recall, it was:
[21:05:47] Bray90820: Sorry were are to many things going on at once lets work on apache first
[21:05:51] bill6502: sudo service mythtv-backend stop (and start) or maybe I said sudo systemctl stop mythtv-backend
[21:05:56] Bray90820: I got it stopped
[21:06:11] bill6502: apache2 you mean
[21:06:16] Bray90820: Yes
[21:06:42] bill6502: ok, that's good for now, but on your next boot/restart, it will start running again
[21:07:31] Bray90820: exit 0 was put on line 2 of the config file
[21:08:39] bill6502: you're in good shape, and if you ever want to turn it on, just remove the exit (probably lots of ways to disable it, but this works)
[21:08:57] Bray90820: Alright
[21:09:04] Bray90820: Next issue the starting and stopping
[21:10:47] bill6502: Bray90820: from the command line, what happens when you type: sudo service mythtv-backend stop (assuming you're not using the backend now)
[21:11:01] Bray90820: The backend stops
[21:11:19] Bray90820: And when I do "sudo service mythtv-backend start" it starts the backend
[21:11:29] Bray90820: Or at least that's what it did yesterday
[21:11:50] bill6502: Bray90820: actually, type sudo -k and try the start and stop again

[21:14:55] bill6502: OK, now apply those commands in mythtv-setup, as i recall, they're about 8 pages in
[21:15:37] Bray90820: "service mythtv-backend stop" and "service mythtv-backend start" ?
[21:15:43] bill6502: Bray90820: that's in the General section
[21:15:47] Bray90820: Put those in the backend?
[21:16:56] bill6502: Bray90820: no: sudo service mythtv-backend stop and yes, run mythtv-setup on your backend
[21:17:31] Bray90820: If I were to put sudo in the backend wouldn't it require a password?

[21:18:18] bill6502: that's what you just tested, from your own user, did it require a password there?
[21:20:29] bill6502: Bray90820: pastebin the output of this please: sudo cat /etc/sudoers.d/mythtv
[21:22:49] Bray90820: cat: /etc/sudoers.d/mythtv: No such file or directory
[21:23:10] Bray90820: And yes I had to enter a password withe I tarted and stopped the backend
[21:23:35] Bray90820: *Started
[21:25:07] bill6502: Bray90820: sudo ls -l /etc/sudoers.d
[21:25:57] Bray90820: total 4
[21:25:58] Bray90820: -r--r----- 1 root root 958 Mar 30 14:57 README
[21:26:24] bill6502: OK, time out, that's just how I do it.
[21:26:44] Bray90820: What happened?
[21:27:52] bill6502: tgm4883: is there a proper way for Mythbuntu users to start/stop their backends? (as other than using a sudoers.d entry)
[21:28:18] Bray90820: bill6502: I am not using mythbuntu
[21:28:27] tgm4883: bill6502: our recommended way is 'sudo service mythtv-backend restart'
[21:28:33] tgm4883: or stop and start
[21:28:53] bill6502: tgm4883: thanks, and it's in sudoers?
[21:28:54] Bray90820: I attempted to use the mythbuntu control center in ubuntu 16.04 but got errors so I gave up
[21:29:06] tgm4883: they would need to be able to sudo, yes
[21:29:14] bill6502: thanks!
[21:29:31] bill6502: Bray90820: OK, what distribution are you running?
[21:29:50] Bray90820: ubuntu 16.04 x64
[21:29:56] bill6502: OK
[21:30:20] bill6502: let me test something before pasting it
[21:30:23] Bray90820: But I did restore my database from a previous mythbuntu backup
[21:30:57] Bray90820: I attempted to restore it with mythbuntu control center and that's where I ran into the errors
[21:31:09] Bray90820: So i gave up and just used the scripts

[21:38:53] bill6502: Bray90820: 1st, open a new terminal window on your backend and type sudo -i
[21:39:19] bill6502: leave that window open until the rest of this is done!
[21:39:32] Bray90820: So because su?
[21:40:34] bill6502: because this is a potentially dangerous procedure and has the ability to prevent the use of the sudo command
[21:40:46] bill6502: make sure you have a # prompt in that window
[21:41:12] Bray90820: Yes I have that
[21:41:16] bill6502: now, copy this: http://pastebin.com/raw/DrauYfG1
[21:41:35] Bray90820: Run it in a terminal?
[21:41:38] bill6502: in some other window (NOT THE ONE THAT HAS THE # PROMPT
[21:41:44] bill6502: yes, in a terminal
[21:41:54] Bray90820: So open a new terminal window without su?
[21:42:12] bill6502: yes, now you have at least 2 windows open
[21:42:18] Bray90820: Yes
[21:42:24] bill6502: terminal sessions to be specific
[21:42:29] Bray90820: Yes
[21:43:03] Bray90820: So what exactly do I do with that paste
[21:44:05] bill6502: in the normal user's window, type the following:
[21:44:07] bill6502: sudo visudo -f /etc/sudoers.d/mythtv
[21:44:56] bill6502: you'll be in an editor, probably nano and you should paste the info there
[21:45:58] Bray90820: Basically I am just adding those start and stop commands to my sudoers file?
[21:46:42] bill6502: yes, so that user mythtv and you can run those 2 service commands without a password
[21:47:01] Bray90820: Yes
[21:47:39] bill6502: you did notice the putYourLoginNameHere (actually it the pastebin says "but...")
[21:47:49] Bray90820: I actually added kind a dangerous command into a sudoers file I can ssh root without a password assuming they have my key
[21:48:23] Bray90820: But that's beside the point
[21:49:35] bill6502: agreed (you should never change /etc/sudoers, because a package manager can release a new version and destroy your changes)
[21:50:08] bill6502: have you changed the butYourLoginNameHere line to your login id, e.g. Bray90820?
[21:50:57] bill6502: or whatever you login is on your backend
[21:52:25] Bray90820: Uh I am not aware of any login
[21:53:12] bill6502: Bray90820: from ANOTHER terminal window, type this: echo $USER
[21:53:15] bill6502: and use that name
[21:53:45] Bray90820: Aaaah so just my ubuntu username
[21:54:18] Bray90820: should I keep the comma \
[21:54:23] Bray90820: *Comma
[21:54:56] bill6502: Bray90820: yes, yourLogin, mythtv
[21:55:05] Bray90820: Ok
[21:55:18] Bray90820: So write out and exit?
[21:55:36] bill6502: yes
[21:55:55] Bray90820: Uh
[21:56:04] bill6502: Bray90820: visudo will issue a warning if the file isn't correct

[21:57:41] bill6502: Bray90820: the pastebin only has 11 lines, so you've added things that must be removed
[21:57:52] Bray90820: I don't know
[21:58:01] bill6502: Bray90820: the last word in the file on the last line is: MYTHTV_COMMANDS
[21:58:27] Bray90820: Yes
[21:58:38] Bray90820: The last paste I sent you is a copy of what is in the file
[21:59:13] bill6502: ah, i see your 2nd paste and it has additional blank lines it it, look at what I pasted and delete them
[21:59:30] Bray90820: That's odd idk how that happened
[22:00:50] Bray90820: >>> /etc/sudoers.d/mythtv: syntax error near line 8 <<<
[22:01:22] Bray90820: http://pastebin.com/raw/gt8SC5dz
[22:03:46] bill6502: Bray90820: my mistake add a comma after service start mythtv-backend (and before the trailing backslash)

[22:11:15] Bray90820: I put the slash back in
[22:12:00] Bray90820: Should it be "service start mythtv-backend.service"
[22:12:13] bill6502: Bray90820: no, the backslash after the last command in the list must be removed
[22:12:47] bill6502: Bray90820: no, we're not using systemctl commands, so no .service
[22:13:07] bill6502: the paste works for me, lets see your most recent copy
[22:13:17] bill6502: (with the 2 corrections)

[22:21:27] Bray90820: Hey I need to leave pretty soon
[22:23:33] bill6502: Bray90820: me too, just abort the edit (it looks fine to me and when I tried your paste with my visudo, it works) there may be some non-printing character there
[22:24:31] bill6502: Bray90820: if you're using name, I believe you want control-X and if visudo asks what you want to do, type help, choose the option to abort, don't write the file

[22:26:24] Bray90820: mythtv and radome are there
[22:26:35] Bray90820: should I rm mythtv
[22:26:38] bill6502: yes
[22:27:10] bill6502: Bray90820: now from the non-root window, type sudo -k
[22:27:11] Bray90820: \Ok now all that is there is readme
[22:27:33] bill6502: Bray90820: then type: sudo touch /tmp/test
[22:27:34] Bray90820: Ok sudo -k done
[22:28:02] bill6502: you should be prompted for a password and the file /tmp/test should be there
[22:28:45] Bray90820: Yes
[22:29:11] bill6502: if you try again, look at whatis in /etc/sudoers (where you mentioned adding somthing) maybe that's getting in the way
[22:29:17] bill6502: but too late for today
[22:30:03] Bray90820: Uh /etc/sudoers does not exist
