| [01:16:00] | SmokingFire: | -d /dev/video1? |
| [01:16:00] | fryfrog: | rm -Rfv / |
| [01:16:00] | fryfrog: | ahhaha |
| [01:16:00] | fryfrog: | nah, you run the mythsetup program |
| [01:17:00] | fryfrog: | it stores all that shit in the db |
| [01:17:00] | SmokingFire: | I need to enter it at command line as I noticed that the tvcard changes from video0 to video1 randomly on reboot. |
| [01:18:00] | ** SmokingFire I also have a webcam attached ** | |
| [01:18:00] | fryfrog: | then you need to make sure its always the same thing |
| [01:18:00] | fryfrog: | because you can't do it on the command line |
| [01:18:00] | fryfrog: | if you use udev, just setup a rule |
| [01:18:00] | fryfrog: | devfs can do it also i think |
| [01:19:00] | SmokingFire: | so its possible to set the positions of devices? |
| [01:19:00] | fryfrog: | obviously i don't know what distro you use, but it should be :) |
| [01:19:00] | SmokingFire: | ubuntu |
| [01:19:00] | fryfrog: | do you use a module for em? |
| [01:19:00] | fryfrog: | or build it into kernel? |
| [01:20:00] | SmokingFire: | fryfrog: I have no idea |
| [01:20:00] | fryfrog: | what tv card d you have? |
| [01:20:00] | SmokingFire: | I also can check as I'm not on my pc at this moment. |
| [01:20:00] | fryfrog: | okay, well i can really help you a lot then ;p |
| [01:20:00] | SmokingFire: | About what tvcard, I'm almost hesitating to say. |
| [01:21:00] | fryfrog: | make sure you are using modules and then make sure they load in a specific order |
| [01:21:00] | fryfrog: | that should result in one always being 0 and the other 1 |
| [01:21:00] | SmokingFire: | Put its a Pinnacle PCTV Rave. Man, it was a bitch to set it up, but I found on freevo the way to get it working. |
| [01:21:00] | fryfrog: | and making sure they load in a specific order is as simple as putting them in order in your modules.conf file |
| [01:22:00] | SmokingFire: | The Pinnacle Rave TV cards need you (on linux) to set the right drivers for the bttv and tuner. Else it doesn't work. |

| [04:59:00] | Beirdo: | Yeah, dunno what it's for off the top of my head, but it's supposed to be cool |
| [04:59:00] | Beirdo: | nothing to worry about yet of course |

| [04:59:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | ahh |
| [05:00:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | so.. there would be a frontend daemon that the frontend talked to, and said daemon would talk to the backend daemon? |
| [05:00:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | or somesuch? |

| [05:06:00] | MRedmon: | Hey everyone! I've got a little problem with my setup and gossamer-threads, the docs, mailing list, and google are all no help. Let me pull my email to mythtv-users and see if any of you have a suggestion or two: |
| [05:06:00] | MRedmon: | I have a few video files that have Dolby AC3 encoding. When I try to play |
| [05:06:00] | MRedmon: | them with xine or gmplayer, they play back just fine in full 5.1 glory; |
| [05:06:00] | MRedmon: | however mplayer does not do likewise. mplayer will either spit out the |
| [05:06:00] | MRedmon: | following message and exit or display the message and continue playing the |
| [05:06:00] | MRedmon: | clip with no sound: |
| [05:06:00] | MRedmon: | ALSA lib setup.c:548:(add_elem) Cannot obtain info for CTL elem |
| [05:06:00] | MRedmon: | (MIXER,'IEC958 Playback AC97-SPSA',0,0,0): No such file or directory |
| [05:06:00] | MRedmon: | I've tried many different variations of -ac hwac3, and -ao alsa:default but |
| [05:06:00] | MRedmon: | all seem to either cause mplayer to exit or to play w/o sound. Now, the |
| [05:06:00] | MRedmon: | error message seems to indicate that there is no mixer control labeled |
| [05:06:00] | MRedmon: | IEC958.... and that is true. The problem is that I cannot seem to find |
| [05:06:00] | MRedmon: | out why it is looking for that specific mixer. |
| [05:06:00] | MRedmon: | I have a 7NIF2 and am using the onboard soundcard. Absolutely everything |
| [05:06:00] | MRedmon: | else is working fine (2 channel and 5.1 surround on xine, 2 channel on |
| [05:06:00] | MRedmon: | mplayer; in recordings, videos, dvds, etc.). I'm running 0.17 from ATRPMs |
| [05:06:00] | MRedmon: | on FC3. |
| [05:07:00] | MRedmon: | Any ideas? |
| [05:08:00] | Beirdo: | dunno, have to ask some mplayer experts |
| [05:08:00] | MRedmon: | Do you know if they have an IRC channel? |
| [05:09:00] | Beirdo: | not sure |
| [05:09:00] | MRedmon: | Okay. |

| [05:29:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | 'k... |
| [05:30:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | hopefully i have one around the house somewhere.. |

| [05:32:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | Beirdo: yeah.. i probably have a 10GB or somesuch around somewhere. |
| [05:32:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | this dead one is a 40... |
| [05:32:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | 10 shoulg be enough for now anyway. |

| [05:48:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | i have a couple spares around and the ones in the VAXen have been operating since the early 80s i think :) |
| [05:48:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | woohoo, found a spare 10GB disk :) |
| [05:51:00] | MRedmon: | If it helps anyone else, I found a way to pass through my AC3 encoding with mplayer. For what ever reason, it did not like the ALSA "default" specified in my .asoundrc, even though gmplayer (preferences/audio/alsa/all default) and xine (alsa:default) didn't mind. By specifying -ao alsa:device=hw=0.2 (what "default" maps to) everything is passed through just fine. |

| [06:18:00] | candc540: | i have to modprobe them every time |
| [06:18:00] | mchou: | candc540: what distro? |
| [06:18:00] | man_in_shack: | oh well. i'll just install mplayer |
| [06:18:00] | quink: | it'll do that funky pixelation thing and suddenly start playing back random snippets of stuff |

| [06:19:00] | candc540: | it has 1/8 inch input for audio and composite (yellow connector) for video and svideo |
| [06:19:00] | man_in_shack: | i wonder how much it's improved since the last time i used it ... |
| [06:19:00] | candc540: | debian |
| [06:19:00] | candc540: | added ivtv file to /etc/modutils |

| [06:19:00] | defaultro: | aight, talk to you guys later |
| [06:19:00] | candc540: | later defaultro |
| [06:19:00] | mchou: | candc540: you have /etc/modprobe.preload? |
| [06:19:00] | candc540: | dunno |
| [06:19:00] | candc540: | let me check |
| [06:20:00] | candc540: | the video on this thing full screen at 1024 x 768 is great |
| [06:20:00] | mchou: | candc540: probably a udev issue..... |
| [06:20:00] | candc540: | better than my old ati in windows |
| [06:20:00] | mchou: | shit, anything beats ati crap. |
| [06:21:00] | candc540: | ok not modprobe.preload |
| [06:21:00] | candc540: | but a modprobe.d |
| [06:21:00] | candc540: | same thing? |
| [06:21:00] | mchou: | candc540: put yours ins modprobe.preload, and your problems are gone. |

| [06:23:00] | candc540: | yeah i think it's modules.d in debian |
| [06:23:00] | mchou: | but whateven init script it uses, there must be a way of preloading modules. |
| [06:23:00] | mchou: | whatever* |
| [06:24:00] | Beirdo: | /etc/modules lists the modules to install on startup... at least in ubuntu |
| [06:24:00] | candc540: | i did a cat sound in modules.d and it said alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0 options snd-intel8x0 index=0 |
| [06:24:00] | Beirdo: | the file... |
| [06:24:00] | candc540: | looks like good old alsa to me |
| [06:25:00] | candc540: | Beirdo: i put a file into the /etc/modutils/ dir that is named ivtv |

| [06:27:00] | candc540: | which one? |

| [06:42:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | Beirdo: oh well. it's replaced with a 10GB Fujitsu, hopefully that works... |
| [06:42:00] | dvr: | yes the firmware is still there (just checked) |
| [06:42:00] | Beirdo: | gah! |
| [06:42:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | i threw the tuner in there while i had the box open anyway.. |
| [06:42:00] | Beirdo: | Fushitsu is the only drive worse than IBM :) |
| [06:42:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | lol |
| [06:43:00] | candc540: | what about tuner type |

| [07:15:00] | quink: | hahah great. |
| [07:15:00] | candc540: | you have kernel headers |
| [07:15:00] | Beirdo: | so if you can still read most of the stuff off the drive you have hope |
| [07:15:00] | candc540: | if so it should just compiles |
| [07:15:00] | fbansucks: | I installed kernel source |
| [07:15:00] | fbansucks: | it compiled just fine |
| [07:15:00] | Beirdo: | get another drive, pvmove everything off the dying drive |
| [07:16:00] | fbansucks: | do I just type install? |
| [07:16:00] | dmorrigan: | Can anyone here answer if on a PVR-500 MCE card the FM tuner is usable? |
| [07:16:00] | Beirdo: | then vgreduce by that drive |
| [07:16:00] | candc540: | no should have to type make in the drivers folder |
| [07:16:00] | fbansucks: | I typed make |
| [07:16:00] | fbansucks: | then install |
| [07:16:00] | candc540: | and then after it compiles just type make install |
| [07:16:00] | fbansucks: | oh, :P |
| [07:16:00] | candc540: | after that add these lines to your /etc/modprobe.conf file |
| [07:16:00] | fbansucks: | it says that msp340.ko is already installed |
| [07:16:00] | fbansucks: | and to remove it |
| [07:16:00] | candc540: | ok |
| [07:17:00] | candc540: | back it up or remove it |
| [07:17:00] | candc540: | either or works |
| [07:17:00] | Beirdo: | if you have enough unused space in the LVM (i.e. not in lv's yet), you can just pvmove without adding another drive to the LVM |
| [07:17:00] | quink: | backing up now... |
| [07:17:00] | candc540: | i just said screw it i'll delete it |
| [07:17:00] | fbansucks: | I deleted it |
| [07:17:00] | candc540: | here's the lines for your modprobe.conf |
| [07:17:00] | candc540: | ok run make install again |
| [07:17:00] | dmorrigan: | Can anyone here answer if on a PVR-500 MCE card the FM tuner is usable under MythTV? |
| [07:17:00] | fbansucks: | I did |
| [07:17:00] | fbansucks: | candc540: btw, thanks for the help : |

| [07:17:00] | quink: | nah, i used scrap space on all disks to make a 100gig 'tv' partition |

| [07:18:00] | quink: | data is going onto another hdd with no errors as of now. |
| [07:18:00] | Beirdo: | but if the drive totally fails before you get the data off it, you may lose the entire LVM when it fails |
| [07:18:00] | quink: | i guess i can do that, then deal with the bad drive and see |

| [07:19:00] | Beirdo: | vgreduce by the drive |
| [07:19:00] | candc540: | that's it for the modprobe.d |
| [07:19:00] | Beirdo: | the LVM HOWTO is good for outlining exactly what must be done |
| [07:19:00] | quink: | yeah |
| [07:20:00] | quink: | i got into this a while ago, got it down, and haven't used it since so i forogt it all |
| [07:20:00] | candc540: | oh btw make sure you remove tveeprom.ko and tuner.ko they're in /lib/modules/KERNEL_VERSION/kernel/drivers/media/video/ |
| [07:20:00] | candc540: | i think i got ahead of myself |
| [07:20:00] | candc540: | btw dcc would be easier i think |
| [07:20:00] | quink: | well once its saved i'll reduce it, and see what i can't throw back on it |

| [07:21:00] | candc540: | that way everyone isn't having to put up with ivtv support in the mythtv room |

| [07:21:00] | candc540: | sorry typo |
| [07:22:00] | roj: | hi all. new myth user here |
| [07:23:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | hihi roj! |
| [07:23:00] | roj: | came looking for help on a couple of things |
| [07:24:00] | NightMonkey (~NightMonk@NightMonkey.active.supporter.pdpc) has joined #mythtv-users | |
| [07:25:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | roj: we can try and help.. |
| [07:25:00] | candc540: | what's that |
| [07:27:00] | roj: | running a new mythtv proj on a fedora install (from wilsonnet) and i would like to roll back my qt-3.3.4–5.0.2 to 3.3.4–2.0.2 but dont know how |
| [07:27:00] | roj: | apt-get remove ?????????????? |
| [07:28:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | err... |
| [07:28:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | that's more of a fedora question than a myth question |
| [07:28:00] | roj: | yeah, i know |
| [07:28:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | you might want to try fedora channels |
| [07:29:00] | roj: | ok them... anyone here using ATI TV Wonder? |
| [07:29:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | yep |
| [07:29:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | but which one? |
| [07:29:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | there's about eight called that.. i use a plain old 'ATI TV Wonder' with no extra characters or words :) |
| [07:29:00] | quink: | well this copying will take all night |
| [07:30:00] | quink: | 3 drives in lvm with 54gigs used. copy that to 1 drive thats on te lvm but to a different partition. bleh |
| [07:33:00] | roj: | so -so picture quality in my caps...don't know if this is a card prob or a problem with signal level from the cable |
| [07:33:00] | kormoc (~kormoc@evrtwa1-ar18-4-41-222-130.evrtwa1.dsl-verizon.net) has joined #mythtv-users | |
| [07:33:00] | candc540: | tv wonder sucks |
| [07:33:00] | candc540: | get a pvr-150 even unsupported it works better and looks great |
| [07:34:00] | roj: | ok so i know that but any help/ |
| [07:34:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | candc540: except there's no VBI support for it... |
| [07:34:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | which makes it useless for some people. |
| [07:34:00] | candc540: | oh well |
| [07:35:00] | ** sarahemm{SA} will pick up a -500 eventually and fix cc support. ** | |
| [07:35:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | plus i'd get a second tuner which would be nice :) |
| [07:35:00] | roj: | no one shoots the moon on thier first attempt at a project...TVW cost me only a couple of bucks to give this home mede PVR thing a try |
| [07:35:00] | opello: | wish i could help, i have a 500 :) |
| [07:36:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | how's it working for you? |
| [07:36:00] | dmorrigan: | I have a 500 too |
| [07:36:00] | opello: | very nicely, imo |
| [07:36:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | nifty :) |
| [07:36:00] | opello: | i'm quite impressed — but it's the only one i've ever used for mythtv (i have a wintv go card in my desktop) |
| [07:36:00] | dmorrigan: | I am installing my first MythTV box now |
| [07:36:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | it still evidently works with some people and not with others... |
| [07:36:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | ahh, okay. |
| [07:37:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | we've been running for... about 2y now i think, with this bttv card. |
| [07:37:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | only one PCI Slot in the backend, so dual-tuners would be very nice. |
| [07:37:00] | ** dmorrigan following the wilsonet.com FC3 guide ** | |
| [07:37:00] | rpete: | ah the good old days |
| [07:37:00] | rpete: | software encoding |
| [07:37:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | rpete: yep :) we've been doing it for a couple years, works just fine... |
| [07:37:00] | ** rpete ships his old bttv job to sarahemm{SA} ** | |
| [07:37:00] | dmorrigan: | I have DirecTV so I can't use the tuners. I am using the composite ins though |
| [07:38:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | rpete: we already have one, and not enough CPU or PCI slots to handle two tuners :) |
| [07:39:00] | rpete: | sarahemm{SA}, the only thing I miss are the lower bitrates, otherwise pvr-250 has really made life easier |
| [07:39:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | rpete: *nods* pretty much everyone moves to hardware encoding it seems. |
| [07:39:00] | roj: | thanks anyway guys..thought (stupidly by the way) I'd find a little help not just a "mine is bigger than your's" discussion. |
| [07:39:00] | roj (~rojam@ip70-186-208-199.hr.hr.cox.net) Quit ("Leaving") | |
| [07:40:00] | rpete: | hm, now I have to read the log :-) |
| [07:40:00] | rpete: | find out what roj is worked up over |
| [07:40:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | err..... |
| [07:40:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | okay... |
| [07:40:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | *confused* |
| [07:40:00] | dmorrigan: | Hey opello do you use the FM tuner on your 500? |
| [07:41:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | rpete: can myth be set up to transcode to mpeg4 in idle time after the initial record off the PVR- card? |
| [07:41:00] | rpete: | sure sarahemm{SA} |
| [07:41:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | coolies. |
| [07:41:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | i've been waiting for someone else to fix the code issues, but i think it's time to Use The Source... tasks > time still tho :P |
| [07:41:00] | rpete: | to make it worthwhile, you'd want your mpeg2 encode to be as lossless as possible |
| [07:41:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | *nods* |
| [07:42:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | kinda defeat the purpose of hardware encoding though, i suppose :) |
| [07:42:00] | rpete: | and I've tried this, since my dvd player recognizes avi |
| [07:42:00] | opello: | dmorrigan: no, never tried it |
| [07:42:00] | rpete: | er, divx |
| [07:43:00] | rpete: | but the results haven't been satisfactory so far |
| [07:43:00] | dmorrigan: | opello, ok. I didn't see anything in the mythtv.org site about it |
| [07:43:00] | opello: | dmorrigan: i didn't know if there was a radio module for myth or not — would be kinda neat to record the radio too, heh |
| [07:44:00] | dmorrigan: | opello, Yeah that would be kinda cool |
| [07:46:00] | dmorrigan: | Can you use any PC to watch stuff from your MythTV box? I am a little fuzzy on that after reading the docs. |
| [07:47:00] | opello: | from what i gather, you can use that 'nuvexport' program to throw it to divx, xvid, mpeg2, or whatever — or use mythfrontend on another linux/mac box to watch stuff |
| [07:48:00] | dmorrigan: | So there is no frontend for Windows? |
| [07:48:00] | dmorrigan: | I am asking cause my GF runs XP and I will be recording stuff for her |
| [07:48:00] | opello: | dunno, never looked |
| [07:49:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | there's 'winmyth' but on three seperate boxes i've never had it reliably work. |
| [07:50:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | it's not 'mythfrontend for windows', it's a seperate project... |
| [07:50:00] | dmorrigan: | Ahhh |
| [07:50:00] | candc540: | hey sarahemm what the hell is VIB or whatever you called it? |
| [07:50:00] | candc540: | what does it do? |
| [07:50:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | DSMyth is DirectShow filters that let you use any DirectShow compatible program to play mythtv's files directly.. it works, but it's not pretty. |
| [07:50:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | VBI is vertical blanking interval.. it's where closed captioning information is stored. |
| [07:50:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | ivtv doesn't have working closed caption support right now. |
| [07:50:00] | dmorrigan: | Yeah it needs to be simple for her |
| [07:51:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | dmorrigan: yeah.. it's not so good yet on windows. |
| [07:51:00] | NightMonkey: | sarahemm{SA}: Hmm... what version of ivtv are you referring to? |
| [07:51:00] | Cardoe: | freaking weather |
| [07:51:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | i nuvexport stuff to watch elsewhere, that works. you can export to divx or a half-dozen other formats. |
| [07:51:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | NightMonkey: anything recentish |
| [07:51:00] | dmorrigan: | sarahemm{SA}, If I could get her to stop playing EQ she'd have a MAC ;-) |
| [07:51:00] | opello: | where is that little info with show name and time remaining stored? some tvs and vcrs show it? |
| [07:51:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | dmorrigan: and macs work :) |
| [07:52:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | opello: show name is in the XDS data, also contained with the closed captioning in the VBI... |
| [07:52:00] | NightMonkey: | Well, as of media-tv/ivtv-0.2.0_rc3 (dunno about 0.3.X), it does work. MythTV just doesn't see it, on my setup. |
| [07:52:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | which is current? |
| [07:52:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | ahh, 0.3.x prolly... |
| [07:52:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | i don't have any ivtv cards, for just that reason (i'd heard CC doesn't work)... so i'm not the best person to ask :) |
| [07:52:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | it'd be nice if it did.. |
| [07:53:00] | NightMonkey: | sarahemm{SA}: Hard to beat the quality, tho. |

| [07:53:00] | NightMonkey: | sarahemm{SA}: Video and audio. |
| [07:53:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | cool. |
| [07:54:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | i do plan to get a -500 soon and either use the working support or fix it if it's not working. |
| [07:54:00] | candc540: | i think that fbansucks is now a mythtv-user finally now that his ivtv probs are sorted out |
| [07:54:00] | NightMonkey: | sarahemm{SA}: Eats disk space, but disk is cheap these days. |
| [07:54:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | *nods* |
| [07:55:00] | NightMonkey: | sarahemm{SA}: I've not heard much about the 500+ivtv+MythTV. I have a 350, and the quality is outstanding. |
| [07:55:00] | dmorrigan: | 411270896 for my /video partition ... Yeah disk is cheap :-) |
| [07:55:00] | NightMonkey: | sarahemm{SA}: But, Hauppague isn't the most supporting company for F/OSS... |
| [07:55:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | NightMonkey: cool :) |
| [07:55:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | i know. |
| [07:56:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | captioning support *did* work at one time tho, and it was then broken again in the code |
| [07:56:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | so i'm *fairly* confident i could fix it. |
| [07:56:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | of course, the -500 is like two -150s, and iirc it's never been working in the -150s... |
| [07:56:00] | solar_angel (~jenni@HSE-Toronto-ppp167019.sympatico.ca) has joined #mythtv-users | |
| [07:56:00] | NightMonkey: | sarahemm{SA}: Nasty, that. But, for me, MythTV (0.16 and 0.17), it's a no-go. I don't know why, since I can cat the VBI stream as I watch, and read it... |
| [07:57:00] | dmorrigan: | Will the mythfrontend run under SUSE? |
| [07:58:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | dmorrigan: no reason it shoudln't :) |
| [07:58:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | NightMonkey: ahh.... hrm. |
| [07:58:00] | dmorrigan: | sarahemm{SA}, WOOT! She has SUSE 9.2 on her box |
| [07:58:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | 0.17 works sortakinda with bttv cards and vbi data, it's slightly corrupt, but basically works |
| [07:58:00] | NightMonkey: | sarahemm{SA}: Could be a problem on my end, but everyting is By the Book. |
| [07:58:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | dmorrigan: any distro should work, within reason. |
| [07:59:00] | rpete: | vbi is closed captioning? |
| [07:59:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | vbi is where the closed captioning data is stored. |
| [07:59:00] | rpete: | just curious why people need it, other than deaf people of course |
| [07:59:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | it's the part of the picture that's not shown, basically. data is stored in it instead, like captions |
| [07:59:00] | NightMonkey: | rpete: Yeah. Sometimes other things (I think in Europe they've used it for data broadcasting). |
| [07:59:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | rpete: umm, people who are deaf or otherwise hard of hearing :) |
| [07:59:00] | rpete: | granted |
| [08:00:00] | solar_angel: | ya, sarahemm{SA} relies on CC pretty much |

| [08:00:00] | man_in_shack (~shack@144.135.252.167) Quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) | |
| [08:00:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | dmorrigan: maybe... really low bandwidth tho. |
| [08:01:00] | dmorrigan: | sarahemm{SA}, Oh... That would be an issue |
| [08:01:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | it's enough for a little text, but if you had more than a few k of code it'd get painful i think... |
| [08:01:00] | dmorrigan: | BRB need to reboot to get the new kernel in |
| [08:02:00] | NightMonkey: | rpete: It's also useful if you're watching TV in a loud place, like an airport, bar, etc. |

| [08:04:00] | NightMonkey: | rpete: Or, better yet, just build them a MythTV box. Then, you'll get as many steroids/time in the jacuzzi/lap swim you need. ;) |

| [08:36:00] | candc540: | i'm probably going to have to recompile my kernel |

| [10:05:00] | topping: | sure, but you are definitely right about the whole "at friends house" thing |
| [10:05:00] | NightMonkey: | topping: There is some trouble getting a viewer to do both SSL and htdigest authentication. But I've got it working with WMP and even Quicktime, so it's doable. |
| [10:06:00] | topping: | NightMonkey: do you keep all your recordings in the same directory? |

| [10:06:00] | topping: | cool, i'll adjust links |

| [10:10:00] | NightMonkey: | topping: Ah, don't give up that SQL. |
| [10:10:00] | topping: | ok, so then video dvd and video program recordings in the same dir |

| [10:11:00] | NightMonkey: | topping: I thought you meant you had your recordings _in general_ scattered about. |
| [10:12:00] | NightMonkey: | topping: I don't think it's a good idea to mix dirs in Myth. |
| [10:12:00] | topping: | ah sorry |
| [10:12:00] | topping: | i'm happy to follow your lead with it |

| [10:14:00] | NightMonkey: | topping: Myth, in my experience, doesn't deal well with running out of storage, so best to give it some lattitude. |
| [10:14:00] | topping: | i have a 25TB tape changer that i'll get on the job over the next year |

| [10:16:00] | NightMonkey: | topping: I don't think the throughput of tape can keep up with Myth ;). |
| [10:16:00] | topping: | hehe |
| [10:17:00] | NightMonkey: | topping: But, it would be ironic, since many people like MythTV precicely because it's not a real VCR... ;) |
| [10:17:00] | NightMonkey: | topping: And doesn't use tape. |
| [10:17:00] | topping: | i just like the idea of the robotics and removable storage combined |

| [15:09:00] | candc540: | morning |
| [15:09:00] | candc540: | i waked u now |
| [15:09:00] | candc540: | now serving number 1044 |
| [15:10:00] | candc540: | anyone got a pvr-150mce they want working in mythtv? |
| [15:10:00] | candc540: | i got mine working and another lastnight :) |
| [15:10:00] | candc540: | works perfect and great and i can't complain picture quality is great |
| [15:10:00] | candc540: | now if i could only get the remote working on a retail card |
| [15:11:00] | dmorrigan: | Morning candc540 |
| [15:11:00] | dmorrigan: | Wanna setup my -500? LOL |
| [15:12:00] | candc540: | it should work the same :) |
| [15:12:00] | candc540: | tuner type is the only difference |
| [15:12:00] | candc540: | it's basically just 2 150s |
| [15:13:00] | candc540: | but a tip is to get 0.3.2q ivtv drivers and then just follow directions to the letter in the quickstart |
| [15:13:00] | candc540: | and it just wroks |
| [15:13:00] | dmorrigan: | I am following the wilsonet.com FC3 how-to |
| [15:13:00] | candc540: | tuner type may be different for your card for retail 150 it's 47 for mce card it seems to be 2 |
| [15:13:00] | candc540: | why follow that? |
| [15:14:00] | candc540: | follow the quickstart for the actual drivers |
| [15:14:00] | candc540: | they have the latest info |
| [15:14:00] | dmorrigan: | Ok. |
| [15:14:00] | candc540: | and it just works better |
| [15:14:00] | candc540: | then after that you can follow the guide to get your mythtv setup working |
| [15:15:00] | dmorrigan: | Ok. Lemme try that. |
| [15:16:00] | candc540: | ok let me know if it don't work |
| [15:16:00] | candc540: | then after you're done do a cat /dev/video0 > test.mpg |
| [15:16:00] | candc540: | ctrl +c |
| [15:17:00] | candc540: | xine test.mpg |

| [15:17:00] | candc540: | should have perfect sound etc |

| [15:52:00] | candc540: | try setting it to 2 for a pvr-150mce |

| [15:53:00] | candc540: | also what did you download to extract the firmware from? |
| [15:53:00] | candc540: | ok so type 47 |
| [15:53:00] | tazmaniac: | candc540: modprobe ivtv ivtv_std=2 tuner=50 is what i do |
| [15:53:00] | candc540: | 50 |

| [15:54:00] | tazmaniac: | ok, I'll try that |
| [15:54:00] | candc540: | and if not 47 then 2 |
| [15:54:00] | candc540: | but it should work with 47 |
| [15:54:00] | tazmaniac: | for PAL-G ? |
| [15:54:00] | candc540: | dunno just try 47 and if that don't work try 2 |
| [15:54:00] | candc540: | just a simple rmmod ivtv |
| [15:54:00] | candc540: | then modprobe again |
| [15:55:00] | candc540: | and see what happens |
| [15:55:00] | tazmaniac: | ok, great! the firmware is btw extracted from the following cd |
| [15:55:00] | candc540: | ok |
| [15:55:00] | candc540: | do me a favor |
| [15:55:00] | tazmaniac: | shoot |
| [15:55:00] | candc540: | go to the ivtv/doc folder |
| [15:55:00] | candc540: | open the quickstart |
| [15:55:00] | candc540: | get your firmware files from there |
| [15:55:00] | candc540: | there's links in there |
| [15:55:00] | tazmaniac: | k |
| [15:56:00] | candc540: | also make sure you deleted the tuner.ko and tveeprom.ko from /lib/kernel_version/drivers................ blah blah blah |
| [15:56:00] | candc540: | those get replaced by ivtv |
| [15:56:00] | opello: | is there any way to 'remote control' mythtv from ssh or something? i've not gotten my wireless keyboard yet |
| [15:56:00] | candc540: | after that it should work |
| [15:56:00] | candc540: | dunno opello |
| [15:57:00] | tazmaniac: | candc540: thanx for your help! I'll try it right now |
| [15:57:00] | flexy: | candc540: have you build your kernel with those sources? that might be the problem... |

| [15:57:00] | candc540: | yeah i'm compiling right now |
| [15:57:00] | candc540: | but will try the compile without installing and see if that works |
| [15:57:00] | candc540: | if not then i'll actually configure the kernel and compile it and install it |
| [15:57:00] | candc540: | just too lazy to do it right now |

| [15:59:00] | candc540: | flexy: works for debian? |
| [16:00:00] | flexy: | that might be the right thing to do, then compile, or just the necessary steps, don't know which... |
| [16:00:00] | candc540: | k i'll see if it works |
| [16:00:00] | flexy: | candc540: might work, dunno really, cause I've compiled my own kernels from day two |
| [16:00:00] | candc540: | but as i recall i think that's for other distros i think debian is the /boot/config way |
| [16:00:00] | flexy: | compiling kernels in debian is not so much trouble, using make-kpkg |
| [16:01:00] | candc540: | yeah really easy |
| [16:01:00] | candc540: | then just a dpkg -i kernel-image-xxx.deb |
| [16:01:00] | candc540: | even updates grub for ya |
| [16:01:00] | flexy: | candc540: yes, but /proc/config.gz (if present) is a sure way to get the right configs for the kernel running |
| [16:01:00] | flexy: | I know :) |
| [16:01:00] | flexy: | so, are you using precompiled kernel? |
| [16:01:00] | flexy: | seems not |
| [16:02:00] | candc540: | yeah was too lazy to compile the kernel on this box |
| [16:02:00] | candc540: | my laptop is running custom kernel but this machine is a new install so didn't bother with it |
| [16:02:00] | flexy: | ah, your first explaining about symlinks and configs should be enough |
| [16:03:00] | flexy: | candc540: then, if precompiled kernel, check for kernel sources and headers from a dpkg package |
| [16:03:00] | candc540: | yeah i installed em |
| [16:03:00] | candc540: | needed them to compile something else |
| [16:03:00] | flexy: | crap. cvs lirc sources? |
| [16:04:00] | candc540: | uh lirc-0.7.0 |
| [16:04:00] | flexy: | the same with me |
| [16:04:00] | flexy: | odd, it seems :) |
| [16:04:00] | candc540: | yeah we'll see after kernel compile |

| [21:01:00] | st0rmy: | after that what'd I do? |
| [21:01:00] | st0rmy: | I put in the options, then whats the next step for me to see if its actually picked it up |
| [21:03:00] | jdrogers: | I think gentoo and debian do modules similarly |
| [21:03:00] | kormoc|afk: | actually, modprobe.conf is regenerated every boot, so no, that's not the right place to put it |
| [21:03:00] | jdrogers: | you can put a module you want loaded into /etc/modules |
| [21:04:00] | jdrogers: | but if the module needs options, the options go in.. |
| [21:04:00] | jdrogers: | hang on gotta look it up |
| [21:04:00] | kormoc|afk: | I beleive it's /etc/modules.d/* |
| [21:04:00] | kormoc|afk: | you make a file, called bttv for example |
| [21:04:00] | kormoc|afk: | put the options in there |
| [21:04:00] | kormoc|afk: | and when it regenerates, it scans all the files in /etc/modules.d/ and puts them into /etc/modules.conf |
| [21:05:00] | jdrogers: | well in debian, options go in /etc/modutils/* |
| [21:06:00] | jdrogers: | but yeah, other than that, what kormoc|afk says is right for debian |
| [21:07:00] | st0rmy: | hmm, so In the file I make, called bttv for example, I pput in options bttv card=70 radio=1 etc etc and options tuner pal=b |
| [21:07:00] | st0rmy: | so it'll work? |
| [21:07:00] | kormoc|afk: | in theory, aye |
| [21:07:00] | jdrogers: | and once you are done editing files, you need to run the update command.. |
| [21:07:00] | jdrogers: | something like update-modules |
| [21:07:00] | st0rmy: | yep, trying |
| [21:08:00] | jdrogers: | grrr.. why is dma so problematic |
| [21:09:00] | st0rmy: | jdrogers, now how do I check whether its picked up the card? |
| [21:09:00] | st0rmy: | 'cause dmesg still shows bttv0: using: *** UNKNOWN/GENERIC *** [card=0,autodetected] |
| [21:09:00] | kormoc|afk: | st0rmy, check the /etc/modules.conf and see if your options are in there |
| [21:09:00] | jdrogers: | hmm |
| [21:09:00] | st0rmy: | kormoc|afk, checking |
| [21:10:00] | kormoc|afk: | I seem to recall that modprobe only checks /etc/modules.conf on boot? |
| [21:10:00] | jdrogers: | yeah, update-modules should have updated the modules.conf, but then you need to reboot or reload the module by hand |
| [21:10:00] | st0rmy: | is it /etc/modprobe.conf or /etc/modules.conf ? |
| [21:11:00] | jdrogers: | modules.conf |
| [21:11:00] | st0rmy: | I put in the same options thing there |

| [22:30:00] | Der_Ollie_: | Thats what I get when starting it. |
| [22:31:00] | jdrogers: | as I'm downloading and installing, whats the difference between mythweb and mythbrowser? |
| [22:32:00] | Cromz: | mythweb is a display for your mythtv.. like to schedule recordings and stuff.. mythbrowser is a web-browser for myth. |
| [22:32:00] | Der_Ollie_: | mythweb is a frontend to manage your recordings and music files via a web interface from everywhere. |
| [22:32:00] | kormoc|afk: | mythweb is the website interface to your mythtv, mythbrowser is a plugin that adds a webbrowser to mythfrontend. |
| [22:33:00] | Der_Ollie_: | That it's. |
| [22:33:00] | jdrogers: | ah |
| [22:33:00] | Der_Ollie_: | Obviously my environment is too new. |
| [22:34:00] | Der_Ollie_: | You mostly get into trouble when running new stuff on your machine. |
| [22:35:00] | jdrogers: | I've been having steady trouble with glitches and crashes for months, and I think I may have solved the problem |

| [22:36:00] | Geckofiend: | Der_Ollie_ didn't you mention a backtrace? |
| [22:36:00] | jdrogers: | if all the problems I've had with dma and crashes/freezes/lockups all come down to a bad ide cable.. grrr |
| [22:36:00] | Geckofiend: | jdrogers heh it wouldn't be the first time I'v heard "bad cable" as the source of problems? |
| [22:37:00] | Der_Ollie_: | Not yet. Interpreting the messages of a backtrace seem to be the the highest art of error analysis. |
| [22:37:00] | kormoc|afk: | I donno, core dumps are rather fun too. |
| [22:38:00] | Geckofiend: | Der_Ollie_ nah backtraces are easy |
| [22:38:00] | Der_Ollie_: | Maybe for you. |
| [22:39:00] | Geckofiend: | make sure to recompile mythbrowser in debug mode and run it under gdb. then post the backtrace to the -dev list. one of us will take a look at it |
| [22:39:00] | Dibblah: | Do you have a BT? |
| [22:39:00] | jdrogers: | Geckofiend, indeed, but nothing had ever triggered error until myth.. I guess myth is a good stress test for the ide bus :-) |

| [22:41:00] | Dibblah: | Are you building from source? |
| [22:42:00] | Der_Ollie_: | Sure. Every multimedia-application I build from source. using ebuilds on a gentoo-system is just something for the great software apps like kde. |
| [22:43:00] | Der_Ollie_: | So the answer is yes. |
| [22:43:00] | Der_Ollie_: | It's a CVS-Outcheck from today. |
| [22:44:00] | Der_Ollie_: | So qmake make --debug make install ? |
| [22:44:00] | Der_Ollie_: | That's what you mean ? |

| [22:44:00] | jdrogers: | hehe |

| [23:21:00] | Kury: | Can someone assist me w/ LIRC... I have it working (kinda) |
| [23:21:00] | Mrgoose: | whats the problem? |
| [23:23:00] | Kury: | I have a Pinnacle systems remote & receiver... but I would like to be able to use my universal remote control insted because I have found that the pinnacle remote is a joke (as far as its button layout) |
| [23:23:00] | Kury: | but every time I try and do irrecord it detects half the buttons as some other button.. |
| [23:23:00] | Kury: | it ends up thinking I have 3 vol+, 2 #4, 5 power buttons, etc... |
| [23:25:00] | Kury: | Anyone have any ideas? |
| [23:27:00] | catisonh: | I think you have to match the long stream of numbers that irw spits out as the button in lircrc |
| [23:27:00] | catisonh: | that is totally just a guess though |
| [23:28:00] | Kury: | what is lircrc? |
| [23:28:00] | Kury: | the rc part? |
| [23:28:00] | sarahemm{SA}: | it's the configuration file for lirc |
| [23:28:00] | catisonh: | its the file that specifies which button does what |
| [23:28:00] | Kury: | ... humm mine is lircd.conf |
| [23:28:00] | catisonh: | it should be at ~/.lircrc |

| [23:28:00] | catisonh: | well, I guess it could be different |
| [23:29:00] | Kury: | I have /etc/lircd.conf |
| [23:29:00] | catisonh: | have you used irw? |
| [23:29:00] | Mrgoose: | any idea why i can use MPEG-VCR to cut the commercials from a recoridng. And the resulting mpg is perfectly in sync. BUt when I convert it to dvd its out of sync? |
| [23:29:00] | Kury: | ya... it works w/ the pinnacle remote & config I made... |
| [23:29:00] | catisonh: | but you want to use the universal remote? |
| [23:29:00] | Kury: | but when I try and configure it with another remote it goes to wack... |
| [23:29:00] | catisonh: | is your universal remote learning? |
| [23:29:00] | Kury: | ya |
| [23:29:00] | Kury: | no |
| [23:30:00] | catisonh: | ok, well, you can't just use another remote and expect lirc to know its the same |
| [23:30:00] | Kury: | but it has a gazillion brand codes in it... |
| [23:30:00] | catisonh: | you have to reconfigure for your new remote |
| [23:30:00] | Kury: | can't I reconfigure the signals though? |
| [23:30:00] | catisonh: | and to do that you have to use irw to see what lirc is picking up |

| [23:30:00] | catisonh: | and then put that in your lirc.conf file |
| [23:30:00] | catisonh: | as the "button" |
| [23:31:00] | Kury: | irw doesn't print anything except whats in the config file... |
| [23:31:00] | ILikeLinux: | is there a way to get mythtv to use esd? |
| [23:31:00] | Kury: | is there a raw mode to irw? |
| [23:31:00] | catisonh: | well, when I do it, it spits a whole bunch of numbers back first and then a button name and the the type of remote |
| [23:31:00] | catisonh: | I am guessing you want that series of numbers in the beginning |
| [23:32:00] | Kury: | yes... but it only spits out things that it knows what they are... |
| [23:32:00] | catisonh: | well, I don't know how to configure it then |
| [23:32:00] | Kury: | take a line out of your config file for the power button persay... and then restart lircd & try running irw... |
| [23:33:00] | Kury: | irw won't report that you ever press the power button from then on... |
| [23:33:00] | Kury: | any idea who I could talk to or where I could go for answers? |
| [23:33:00] | catisonh: | hmm, well, you'll have to figure out how to get lirc to recognize your new remote |
