| [22:09:06] | friendofafriend: | jm|laptop: Indeed, but I'd like to cut the resource usage of running it down to the quick. |
| [22:09:51] | jm|laptop: | friendofafriend: hmm. I see. What do you like about it? It's basically dragging info from some weather api afaik. You could recreate it in say a browser window? |
| [22:10:24] | friendofafriend: | I'd just like to make an MPEG-TS that I can SAP annouce around my network for Windows and tablet users. |
| [22:11:02] | jm|laptop: | your own Weather Channel? :) |
| [22:11:12] | ** friendofafriend is so busted. ** | |
| [22:11:34] | friendofafriend: | Yes, and I've got a weather radio here to put its audio in. |
| [22:12:47] | jm|laptop: | ffmpeg sounds like your friend here. I'm not yet sure how you'd generate the stills, update them at intervals and push them to the ts |
| [22:12:56] | jm|laptop: | but Ceefax managed it |
| [22:13:13] | friendofafriend: | Ceefax? Did someone do something like this already? |
| [22:13:30] | jm|laptop: | no nm I was being obtuse |
| [22:13:48] | friendofafriend: | I'm sorry if I missed the reference, I'm rather obtuse myself. |
| [22:14:43] | friendofafriend: | And indeed ffmpeg is a dear friend, I've already got the code for all the other parts. I'd just like to make as thin a Debian virtual machine as possible to do the service. |
| [22:15:32] | friendofafriend: | I guess I should say the appropriate command line arguments, a RTL-SDR tuned to my local NOAA frequency, and the like. |
| [22:15:35] | jm|laptop: | well. Depending how you render the 'pages', ffmpeg can loop through image files and transmit it as video |
| [22:15:54] | jm|laptop: | ffmpeg -loop 1 -t 1 -i 1.jpg -loop 1 -t -1 -i 2.jpg etc. |
| [22:15:59] | friendofafriend: | I've actually been using ffmpeg with a FIFO and just cramming PNGs down its gullet. |
| [22:16:32] | jm|laptop: | if your script rendered and overwrote those images in a timely fashion I guess that might work |
| [22:17:11] | friendofafriend: | The audio quickly updates after a change, the slideshow is longer. I think that's just a matter of reducing the FIFO's buffer. |
| [22:17:25] | jm|laptop: | a billion years ago I seem to recollect using some perl library and XML/html to render an HTML 'page' and then extract that to an image |
| [22:17:47] | jm|laptop: | if audio is just a feed from the radio you just mux that in surely? |
| [22:18:26] | jm|laptop: | this is basically entirely not what MythWeather does. We're probably in danger of being kicked for OT :) |
| [22:18:28] | friendofafriend: | I'm actually using a FIFO for that also, so I can take over the WX radio for Big Brother messages. |
| [22:18:52] | jm|laptop: | ugh |
| [22:19:14] | friendofafriend: | Well, to bring it back to very much on topic, I'd actually love to use MythWeather because my family is familiar with it from the living room. |
| [22:19:31] | friendofafriend: | And actually, they rather like it! :) |
| [22:19:45] | jm|laptop: | friendofafriend: well without trying to be a dick, it's all there in the source code. How good is your qt programming? |
| [22:21:30] | jm|laptop: | (I didn't realise it "streamed" anything by the way. I thought it just aggregated and rotated. I have never used it!) |
| [22:21:46] | friendofafriend: | That's not a dick thing to say. I'm good enough to have at the code blocks and maybe whip something up. I was just wondering if someone might have an elegant solution. |
| [22:21:58] | friendofafriend: | It does just aggregate and rotate, this is very much true. |
| [22:22:21] | friendofafriend: | Where MythWeather gets a little tricky is in running an animated GIF of a weather map from Accuweather. |
| [22:23:02] | friendofafriend: | My stream is only 1.5FPS, so I fear this will complicate matters. |
| [22:23:58] | jm|laptop: | granted. You'd need to grock the GIF to see how many frames it is, if it's not always a fixed amount and wait that long before you did something next |
| [22:24:50] | jm|laptop: | I'm also lacking ffmpeg and cine-fu here. There might be some kickass libraries already let you "make your own TV channel" :) |
| [22:26:01] | jm|laptop: | if it didn't have to be a video stream, I'd think a browser-based solution would be the way but I'm probably biased as I script such things much more than I code properly |

| [22:39:44] | friendofafriend: | I'm already pushing a bunch of video across the network in multicast that I'm getting from a bunch of tuners. And some music coming from FM, received by an few RTL-SDRs, that has a cute slide show as the video. |
| [22:41:19] | friendofafriend: | "A few RTL-SDRs", rather. |
| [22:42:55] | friendofafriend: | And maybe the family will give me less heat for cutting the cord if the bill gets much higher. ;) |
| [22:43:48] | jm|laptop: | rtl-sdr chipsets tend to offer DVB. How pirate/obscure is the FM radio station you're streaming?! |
| [22:47:28] | friendofafriend: | You're right, the DVB-T does me little good unless I'm modulating my own signal out with something like GNURadio. I've got some USB and PCI TV tuners that do ATSC. |
| [22:47:50] | friendofafriend: | ClearQAM, too, but there's nothing in the clear on my cable provider anymore. I used to at least get CSPAN2 and 3. |
| [22:48:34] | friendofafriend: | The FM radio is very handy and I've got HD Radio coming out of it, also. |

| [22:51:04] | friendofafriend: | It's neither pirate nor obscure FM radio, unfortunately. But there is some classical music and classic rock. ;) |
| [22:51:14] | jm|laptop: | friendofafriend: dvb-tools, dvblast etc. have a few handy things |
| [22:51:21] | jm|laptop: | no scary frontend required |
| [22:51:47] | jm|laptop: | I naively Just Expected that you'd have a handy and free DVB-T[2] service just because I do here :) |
| [22:52:01] | friendofafriend: | They're wonderful, I use mumudvb and love it. The slideshows to music are just ffmpeg with minisapserver. |
| [22:52:49] | friendofafriend: | I cannot articulate how perfectly jealous I am of your DVB-T signal. I'd kill a lower life form to use these $7 RTL-SDRs for their intended purpose. |
| [22:54:28] | jm|laptop: | we're veering wildly OT again but I was playing with two of my rtl-sdrs just this week because I invested in a couple of freezer thermometers. They use ~433MHz and I wanted to plot the temperature to RRD for S&G |
| [22:55:58] | friendofafriend: | rtl_433 is wonderful for that purpose, and I've done the same for my deep freezers. These days I use a DHT22 and ESP8266 to free up the SDR for something else. |
| [22:56:20] | jm|laptop: | I wondered if I'd get the oil level meter and the door bell too but I think my aerial^Wlength of wire I found in the garage is the wrong length. I only got one reading from the one stat :( |
| [22:58:11] | friendofafriend: | We're lucky to have FCC IDs on our meters here, so it's easy to tell what frequency they use. Maybe rtlamr would find the meter you're looking for? |
| [22:59:10] | jm|laptop: | does that meander through some likely frequencies and listen for stuff? |
| [23:00:07] | jm|laptop: | rtl_433 recognises my stats but not the oil (despite it supporting others by the same manufacturer) and seemingly not the doorbell |
| [23:00:19] | friendofafriend: | rtl_433 is for just things at 433MHz, but there's also some utility meters in the 800MHz band. Here, it's called ISM for industrial, scientific, and medical. |
| [23:00:36] | jm|laptop: | but I'm also very stupid WRT things telegraphic |
| [23:00:55] | jm|laptop: | I'll bookmark it for later. Thanks. |

| [23:03:06] | jm|laptop: | meh. I need to get one of the analyser tools to not segfault all the time on me so I can perhaps discover what is in and around the valid frequencies |
| [23:03:42] | friendofafriend: | I tend to use gqrx on a happy little Linux Mint box, and it works great. |
