[00:35:00] The_Tick: how much hard drive storage?
[00:35:00] Tommck: not enough :)
[00:36:00] The_Tick: heh
[00:36:00] Krazylegz: Well, I used a Pundit-R, which is nice because it's small.
[00:36:00] twisted_one: umm
[00:36:00] twisted_one: 200gb
[00:36:00] The_Tick: ya, not enough
[00:36:00] twisted_one: meh
[00:36:00] twisted_one: $70 / 200gb add ons available
[00:36:00] The_Tick: pvr-500 is really 2 150s
[00:36:00] The_Tick: and it can't scale when recording
[00:37:00] The_Tick: so you're looking at 2 gb per hour
[00:37:00] Tommck: ?
[00:37:00] The_Tick: at least that's what my friend at work says :)
[00:37:00] ** The_Tick needs to setup his myth box still **
[00:37:00] Tommck: The_Tick – I think that was/is a driver issue, not the board...
[00:37:00] twisted_one: meh, I use transcoding
[00:37:00] Tommck: not sure if it's still an issue
[00:37:00] twisted_one: so I have way more than enough space for my needs

[00:59:00] MrFluffy: hello, im hoping someone is alive who can help me a bit since I seem not to be able to see the wood for the trees with something
[00:59:00] MrFluffy: Ive got a mythbackend server, with two pvr250's, and a bt848 card in it, the bt848 picks up terrestial feeds, and the two pvr250's are connected to sky settop boxes.

[01:00:00] MrFluffy: ive got one of joseph heenans usb channel changers, and have set up ivtv so i can see the output from the sky boxes by a capture from /dev/video1 and /dev/video2 and the usb dongle changes the channels nicely
[01:01:00] MrFluffy: however, I cant seem to configure mythtv to tune to a channel on the sky boxes, and im running the external command to change the stb's in the config..
[01:02:00] MrFluffy: I get :- CheckChannel failed. Please verify channel repeated a lot...
[01:03:00] MrFluffy: then a line saying ;- Error, couldn't find any available channels
[01:03:00] MrFluffy: how do i tell myth that the channels are there, and on the composite input?? I thought i did it right in mythtvsetup..
[01:04:00] Tommck (n=Tommck@dpc691921013.direcpc.com) has left #mythtv-users
[01:05:00] MrFluffy: I should say also that I had it working with terrestial feeds only, but I moved country and cant pick up english language feeds from the air anymore, so ive migrated the install...

[01:43:00] beixaith: emes: With mythvideo?
[01:44:00] emes: beixaith: no, with vlc (os x), mplayer (linux), and wmp (windows)
[01:45:00] beixaith: emes: mplayer, at least, has different -vo and -ao methods (some of which don't stay in sync)
[01:45:00] emes: the video is taller than it is wide
[01:46:00] beixaith: emes: Are you using nuvexport?
[01:46:00] emes: beixaith: no, just copying the nuv files
[01:47:00] beixaith: ahh, nuv is weird
[01:48:00] beixaith: I had it almost working with mplayer once.
[01:48:00] emes: it plays in mplayer

[01:49:00] emes: beixaith: it's transcoding into mpeg-4
[01:50:00] beixaith: emes: You might try nuvexport instead to get it out of .nuv format.
[01:51:00] emes: beixaith: having to wait for it to be transcoded again because of a minor display bug isnt very appealing

[02:00:00] Cromz_ is now known as Cromz
[02:02:00] lngtooth: Is it appropriate to ask for help with lirc in this form? The FAQ doesn't say. But google has some archives of same...
[02:03:00] lngtooth: Perhaps I should point out that I am using lirc to IR-blast an Expressvu 3100. So myth can change the channel for me...
[02:04:00] lngtooth: And that when I run 'irsend --device /dev/lircd1 SEND_START 3100 2', it crashes the lircd.
[02:04:00] MrFluffy: hmm sorted the channel issue out, and now the video is choppy, am I asking too much for a xbox frontend to be able to view live tv captured on a pvr250?
[02:05:00] emes: MrFluffy: possibly
[02:07:00] MrFluffy: grr its smooth on the bt848 captured stuff...

[02:17:00] beixaith: MrFluffy: what kind of network connection?
[02:17:00] beixaith: mpeg-2 is big
[02:18:00] MrFluffy: beixaith: 100baseT through a unmanaged switch
[02:18:00] MrFluffy: its *almost* keeping pace, which is incredibly annoying...
[02:19:00] beixaith: Mr: 700MHz should handle mpeg-2, can you run top to make sure nothing else is munching cpu?
[02:19:00] MrFluffy: its lacking a little in memory
[02:19:00] beixaith: ahh, are you running a desktop or something?
[02:20:00] MrFluffy: no, its xebian with the mythfrontend..
[02:20:00] MrFluffy: but its still running XFree86 too in only 64Mb
[02:20:00] smb3_man: MrFluffy: i want to use xebian with mythfrontend
[02:21:00] beixaith: MrFluffy: You might have some unneeded kernel modules loaded or daemons running
[02:21:00] beixaith: smb3: Not with hdtv content you don't ;)
[02:21:00] smb3_man: MrFluffy: you actually using your xbox for a frontend?
[02:22:00] smb3_man: lol
[02:22:00] MrFluffy: im wondering if its a issue of the capture side, or frontend speed... i should install a pc based mythfrontend to check
[02:22:00] MrFluffy: smb3_man, yes, i have two xbox's with xebian on them as frontends
[02:22:00] smb3_man: the xbox can output hdtv resolutions
[02:22:00] beixaith: smb3: Assuming it had enough balls to decode it realtime.

[02:23:00] smb3_man: MrFluffy: i installed xebian asnd mythtv, what remore unit do you use?
[02:23:00] MrFluffy: yeah but can it process a nfs filesystem, mythfrontend, xfree, and a loopback filesystem to boot realtime at the same time?
[02:23:00] MrFluffy: use the stock microsoft dvd playback ones
[02:23:00] smb3_man: Mrfluffy: they work?
[02:24:00] ip_goat_rodeo (n=dvc@gamera.gol.ad.jp) has joined #mythtv-users

[02:24:00] beixaith: xbox doesn't play DVDs in hdtv
[02:24:00] MrFluffy: m$ yes, they work perfectly with xebian
[02:24:00] smb3_man: ahh
[02:24:00] MrFluffy: hehe its going worse with top running :)

[02:24:00] smb3_man: works with mythtv then using the xbox dvd ror media cenmter extender remote?
[02:25:00] beixaith: MrFluffy: You might even consider recompiling your kernel, but I suspect it's been customized for the xbox pretty well already.
[02:25:00] MrFluffy: its probally a bit out of date, ed's not maintaining it so much lately
[02:25:00] MrFluffy: i have plans afoot to install fedora-xbox on it next week
[02:25:00] beixaith: More exciting stuff in the pipe.
[02:26:00] smb3_man: MrFluffy: have you gotten xebian to work with vga?
[02:26:00] MrFluffy: if i cant solve this, im going to have to take out the pvr250's and put in 3 crappy bt848 cards at once again (nightmare time)
[02:26:00] ip_goat_rodeo: Do any of the knoppixmyth developers hang out here? I have a localization issue that needs fixing in the distro (missing dependent packages for tv_grab_jp that are not installed)
[02:26:00] MrFluffy: no, i use the one downstairs with a projector, and this ones on the bedroom telly
[02:27:00] beixaith: MrFluffy: Are you doing mostly livetv?
[02:27:00] smb3_man: MrFluffy: it it hdtv? and you actually get something like 480p output?
[02:27:00] ip_goat_rodeo: libtext-kakasi-perl and its dependent files are necessary for tv_grab_jp to work at all and are not installed by default.
[02:27:00] MrFluffy: no, but its pretty crucial to customer acceptance (the missus)

[02:28:00] smb3_man: ahh
[02:29:00] MrFluffy: beixaith, the score is we live in a non english speaking country, and can only pick up english lang tv from satelite, and im sick of having to have sky boxes all over the place each with their own cards...

[02:30:00] MrFluffy: brb im wondering if the one downstairs is the same...
[02:31:00] MrFluffy: this box here is new to me, and its an anchient mk1 pcb
[02:31:00] ip_goat_rodeo: japan is having same issues pretty much – even worse our terrestial hidef system is not used ANYWHERE else.

[02:32:00] smb3_man: the US has ATSC, the rest of the world uses DVB-T
[02:32:00] ip_goat_rodeo: Japan uses ISDB-T
[02:32:00] ip_goat_rodeo: which is different from either of those
[02:32:00] smb3_man: MrFluffy: so, anything special with running mythfrontend on an xbox?
[02:33:00] smb3_man: ISDB-T, ahh
[02:33:00] smb3_man: wierd
[02:33:00] ip_goat_rodeo: and the number of ISDB-T capture cards, supported or not, is approximately zero
[02:33:00] ip_goat_rodeo: no wait, it IS zero
[02:34:00] smb3_man: lol
[02:34:00] abarbaccia: hey guys – would a regular ATA100 drive be fast enough for hd recording
[02:34:00] abarbaccia: and playback
[02:34:00] abarbaccia: or do you think I would need Sata?
[02:34:00] smb3_man: i'd go with sata
[02:34:00] abarbaccia: but is it necessary?
[02:34:00] ip_goat_rodeo: no
[02:34:00] ip_goat_rodeo: bottleneck won't be the disk
[02:35:00] smb3_man: not if you have decent ram
[02:35:00] abarbaccia: is it much of a performance hit?
[02:35:00] abarbaccia: smb3_man, ram has little to do with it
[02:35:00] abarbaccia: ip_goat_rodeo, that's what i was thinking
[02:35:00] smb3_man: actually, you're right
[02:35:00] abarbaccia: <-- computer engineer in training
[02:35:00] smb3_man: i'd say 3GHz atleast for hdtv\
[02:35:00] beixaith: well, ram might help during livetv :)
[02:36:00] abarbaccia: smb3_man, i was figuring that
[02:36:00] smb3_man: ahh
[02:36:00] smb3_man: i wonder if i upgrade my xbox to 128mb ram it'
[02:36:00] abarbaccia: smb3_man, actually – i was thinking like a 2.4 Athalon and use XV with an nvidia card
[02:36:00] smb3_man: i wonder if i upgrade my xbox to 128mb ram it'll decode hdtv decently
[02:37:00] abarbaccia: smb3_man, i think the problem is the processor speed
[02:37:00] abarbaccia: isn't it only like 633 MHz?
[02:37:00] smb3_man: hmm..
[02:37:00] abarbaccia: but they do have a lot of video acceleration....hurm
[02:37:00] abarbaccia: that's a tough one
[02:37:00] smb3_man: xbox is 733MHz
[02:37:00] abarbaccia: oh, still
[02:37:00] abarbaccia: REALLY slow
[02:38:00] beixaith: xbox doesn't have a lot of acceleration by today's standards`
[02:38:00] abarbaccia: especially for 1080i video
[02:38:00] abarbaccia: very true
[02:38:00] MrFluffy: it should be enough...shouldnt it...
[02:38:00] MrFluffy: top isnt showing 100% cpu
[02:38:00] MrFluffy: but it is swapfiling
[02:38:00] abarbaccia: then bump the ram up and see if that'll help you out
[02:38:00] beixaith: Yeah, paging is going to destroy you (and your soul)
[02:39:00] smb3_man: MrFluffy: i'm hoping 128mb ram will help with hdtv
[02:39:00] MrFluffy: its using 48M of the swapfile...
[02:39:00] abarbaccia: should put you in the clear
[02:39:00] MrFluffy: which itself is mounted on a loopback filesystem...
[02:39:00] MrFluffy: i wonder if i make a native ext2 partition...
[02:39:00] beixaith: MrFluffy: You could do quite a bit actually (eliminate kernel modules, stop daemons, run a tiny wm, cut out fonts from the X server, ...)
[02:39:00] MrFluffy: its running at 27% cpu...
[02:40:00] MrFluffy: cpu load isnt the issue...
[02:40:00] smb3_man: MrFluffy: have you upgraded your xbox ram?
[02:40:00] MrFluffy: no theyre both 64Mb
[02:40:00] smb3_man: ahh
[02:40:00] MrFluffy: i only just got the backend server working enough to tell the video is choppy!
[02:41:00] smb3_man: MrFluffy: so the xbox dvd dongle works well with the frontend?
[02:41:00] smb3_man: lol
[02:41:00] MrFluffy: ok, mythfrontend is using 64% of memory and XFree is using 27%, not much else to trim :(
[02:41:00] abarbaccia: alright – so im thinking like a 250 ATA drive for my HD box....nvidia card, 2.6 or 2.8 intel processor
[02:41:00] MrFluffy: yes, the dvd remote works flawlessly with xebian and mythfrontend
[02:42:00] smb3_man: MrFluffy: kick ass
[02:42:00] MrFluffy: the keymappings all make sense and everything
[02:42:00] beixaith: abarb: think faster processor if you're building it new
[02:42:00] abarbaccia: MrFluffy, is xebian a live cd? or do you gotta install it to the HD
[02:42:00] smb3_man: MrFluffy: ahh
[02:42:00] smb3_man: it's both\
[02:42:00] MrFluffy: abarbaccia, you boot a live cd then run a install where it wget's or the like its os from the net
[02:43:00] abarbaccia: right – but i was wondering if we could make a cd that just boots mythfrontend for xbox hardware

[02:44:00] smb3_man: i haven't seen a myth distro for xbox
[02:44:00] abarbaccia: MrFluffy, you can do that in mythfrontned
[02:44:00] abarbaccia: recording profiles
[02:44:00] abarbaccia: record at a lower setting = more disk space
[02:44:00] MrFluffy: for live tv?
[02:45:00] abarbaccia: yep
[02:46:00] MrFluffy: woo just choppy audio now
[02:47:00] smb3_man: i guess the xbox isn't a good frontend system
[02:47:00] MrFluffy: cor you can change the encoder stream and everything in there, cheers, id missed that!
[02:48:00] smb3_man: only fror mpeg4 i guess
[02:48:00] abarbaccia: yea xbox for HD frontend is pushing it just a little
[02:49:00] beixaith: 480p maybe
[02:49:00] MrFluffy: I dont want it for hd, i just want one place where all the sat equipment is located
[02:49:00] MrFluffy: and only one set of stb cards
[02:50:00] smb3_man: i want hd, dvb-s, cable, and av inputs, thats all i want
[02:50:00] smb3_man: well, in the US, thats pretty much everything
[02:51:00] smb3_man: :P
[02:51:00] MrFluffy: hmm its handling 480 with dvd as the stream type...
[02:52:00] abarbaccia: that's asking for alittle much don't you think
[02:52:00] smb3_man: MrFluffy: have you tried to play a dvd with mplayewr or xine?
[02:52:00] ip_goat_rodeo: the knoppixmyth people seem to deliberately avoid providing any kind of email contact address ><
[02:52:00] MrFluffy: yes, it handles it fine, mplayer that is
[02:52:00] smb3_man: MrFluffy: whats the standard command to play a dvd? mplayer /path/to/video_ts.ifo ?
[02:53:00] MrFluffy: i usually cheat and just point it to the directory, or if its on dvd, i point it at the device
[02:53:00] smb3_man: ahhh
[02:53:00] smb3_man: mplpayer /dev/hdb
[02:54:00] smb3_man: something like that
[02:54:00] MrFluffy: mplayer /dev/cdrom :-)
[02:54:00] smb3_man: oh, even easier :P
[02:54:00] MrFluffy: you can get mplayer for xbmc and the like but i dont bother with all that
[02:55:00] smb3_man: it vwon't start up with evox\
[02:55:00] smb3_man: i tried it but was a pain in the ass
[02:57:00] smb3_man: how do you eject the drive when it's open?
[02:57:00] smb3_man: err
[02:57:00] smb3_man: open = in linux
[02:58:00] MrFluffy: on a xbox? "eject" the same as normal
[02:58:00] smb3_man: hmm..
[02:58:00] smb3_man: the orange LED is on constantly, not blinking
[02:59:00] smb3_man: it never wanted to eject for me
[02:59:00] MrFluffy: thats because the led is a status thing from software
[02:59:00] MrFluffy: xebian uses it to display backend status
[02:59:00] smb3_man: oh
[02:59:00] smb3_man: i never had myth running at all though
[03:00:00] smb3_man: i'm using xebian 1.1.4
[03:01:00] MrFluffy: xebian uses it for status in some way too, but just issue a "eject" or press the button as normal and it should pop out, unless its the live version of course..
[03:02:00] smb3_man: ahh, ok
[03:06:00] smb3_man: would you know why wmv streams are choppy with mplayer on xebian?
[03:06:00] smb3_man: said the framebuffer was resetting
[03:07:00] MrFluffy: probally the codec.. ive got a couple that behave really weird in mythvideo but work fine ona fedora machine
[03:07:00] MrFluffy: but ive got some wmv stuff that is ok too...
[03:08:00] smb3_man: well, i think it uses the same codec files as xine, and xine plays it fine, but mplayer just rocks
[03:09:00] Mrgoose: smb3_man: mplayer doesn't play dvd menu's
[03:09:00] Mrgoose: so
[03:09:00] Mrgoose: xine is better heh
[03:09:00] smb3_man: i love mplayer actually
[03:09:00] smb3_man: Mrgoose: oh, will it decrypt dvd video?
[03:10:00] MrFluffy: mplayer does, it just shows them as a big series of frames :)
[03:10:00] smb3_man: ahh, lol
[03:11:00] smb3_man: even if you just point it to the cdrom?

[03:19:00] MrFluffy: actually we probally use the m$ dashboard one mostly if its for playing back commercial ones, since I have the dvd playback kit..
[03:20:00] MrFluffy: anyway, this isnt #xbox ;)
[03:20:00] smb3_man: ahh
[03:20:00] smb3_man: well, i want to use the xbox as a pc
[03:21:00] smb3_man: :P

[03:24:00] smb3_man: there is a mythphone plugin?
[03:24:00] smb3_man: or does that just read caller id info?
[03:24:00] MrFluffy: no, its h232 phone system for mythtv
[03:25:00] smb3_man: oh, VoIP?
[03:27:00] MrFluffy: yes, h232 is the name of the stack voip uses
[03:27:00] MrFluffy: netmeeting, gnomemeeting etc all h232
[03:27:00] smb3_man: oh, thats what tunnels the VoIP data over TCP/IP?
[03:28:00] MrFluffy: its one of the ways yes, since skype isnt h232 afaik, but its not my area really
[03:29:00] smb3_man: ahh
[03:29:00] smb3_man: you think a 500MHz system with 128mb ram would handle asterisk?
[03:30:00] smb3_man: with at max 5 phones
[03:30:00] MrFluffy: I dont know what asterisk is apart from a vague glance as I scrolled past it on freshmeat.., maybe you'd be best off asking on their mailing list?
[03:31:00] smb3_man: azhh, hehe
[03:31:00] smb3_man: it's a VoIP PBX
[03:33:00] smb3_man: i still need to biold my front end though

[03:54:00] DarthV: Is Hauppage WinTV 250 MCE compatible with MythTV ???
[03:54:00] Mrgoose: DarthV: depends on which core it is

[03:56:00] DarthV: I hope not to have the same problem that I have with sound card !!

[03:56:00] DarthV: Linux doesn't like the frontends soundcard :(
[03:59:00] ip_goat_rodeo: Gotta love the sony disclaimer on that tuner – roughly translated "Other than the 3–4 pieces of sony equipment we mentioned we make NO PROMISES about the firewire port working with anything eles"

[04:06:00] ip_goat_rodeo: might want to look at audio rack makers
[04:07:00] smb3_man: wonder if dvb cards can pullin hdtv streams?
[04:07:00] ip_goat_rodeo: settsu makes some wall mountable stuff, but don't think they do 19" stuff
[04:07:00] ip_goat_rodeo: www.ideal.co.jp for settsu
[04:07:00] Atamido: The only one that deep that I have seen was waaaaay to featureful and expensive.
[04:07:00] smb3_man: they can, right?
[04:08:00] Atamido: My Japanese is pretty rusty.
[04:08:00] Atamido: Actually, it's non-existant.
[04:08:00] ip_goat_rodeo: I would suggest looking at companies that deal with audio-oriented racks
[04:09:00] ip_goat_rodeo: since most of the computer-oriented racks tend to be at least 600mm deep
[04:09:00] Atamido: I'm not familiar with the audio world, any specific companies?
[04:09:00] ip_goat_rodeo: and most are 800mm or more
[04:09:00] ip_goat_rodeo: no real clue on audio stuff here.
[04:10:00] Atamido: 600mm would be plenty.
[04:10:00] Atamido: It just needs to be 19" wide and wall mountable.
[04:11:00] ip_goat_rodeo: take a look at http://www.settsu.co.jp/jp/products/subrack/subrack.htm
[04:12:00] ip_goat_rodeo: that like what you're looking for?

[07:59:00] Golani: i'm trying out libiec61883 -> exampples folder -> test-mpeg2.c i had this working 4 months ago. but now when i type it it doesn't execute as in it throws out "command not found" is there something i need to install to run it?
[07:59:00] Krazylegz: Which command was not found?
[08:00:00] Golani: test-mpeg2.c i remember i was able to run it before ( i had to rebuild the system ) so now i can't run test-mpeg2
[08:02:00] Golani: perhaps ther's seomting missing to run .c files
[08:02:00] Krazylegz: Well, .c files are usually C source code, and need to be compiled first.
[08:02:00] Krazylegz: Try something like "head test-mpeg2.c" and see if there are words.
[08:03:00] Golani: hmm strange, before after untaring the libeec tarball, it ran as well as the others, like plugreport etc etc... let me try what you said
[08:03:00] adante: Agrajag-: cool.. dyou know if there's any way to 'recover' previous recordings where the sound disappears halfway through?
[08:04:00] Golani: yea that head command trew out words but it was mainly copyright info
[08:05:00] Krazylegz: Golani: Then you'll have to compile it. I haven't used those examples, but try typing 'make'.
[08:07:00] Golani: i'll look into it...but before it was just a matter of untarring and running,...perhaps this can be ran if i had something pre-installed something to execute it...thanks for the advice, i'll look into it more ....
[08:07:00] Krazylegz: Maybe there is an install/compile script. Maybe it's called 'make'. :-)
[08:07:00] Krazylegz: Er, run using make.
[08:08:00] Agrajag-: adante: you could try ProjectX.. not sure how much luck you'd have
[08:08:00] Golani: ya i already tried make ... no luck ah well.
[08:08:00] Krazylegz: Which directory is that in?
[08:09:00] Golani: the make file is inside the /libiec/examples folder
[08:09:00] Golani: (the folder with all those .c files)
[08:09:00] Golani: plugreport.c, test-mpeg2.c etc etc
[08:09:00] Krazylegz: Yeah, it should be. What is the full path to them?
[08:10:00] Golani: '/home/myusername/libiec/examples/'
[08:11:00] Krazylegz: Did you read the installation notes?

[08:13:00] Krazylegz: You still cannot run test-mpeg2 ?
[08:14:00] Golani: no i can't ah well.
[08:14:00] Golani: i'll figure it out eventually.
[08:14:00] Golani: whats the command to extact .bz2 files?

[08:17:00] Krazylegz: If it's just a .bz2 file, I think there is a bunzip, or something to that effect.

[08:37:00] Golani: previous versions i had to enable the flag and manually compile mythtv.
[08:39:00] Krazylegz: Sounds like a job for Gentoo. :-)
[08:39:00] Golani: huh? was thaa response for me?
[08:42:00] Krazylegz: Yeah.
[08:43:00] Krazylegz: Kind of. It was a joke. Gentoo allows you to set USE flags, so if you say "USE=firewire" then it will compile everything that supports firewire with support for it when you emerge it onto your system.
[08:45:00] Golani: ohh
[08:45:00] Krazylegz: Sounds like you're using Debian, though.
[08:45:00] Golani: yea
[08:45:00] Golani: by my keywords eh? apt-get
[08:46:00] Krazylegz: Yeah. I suppose you could be using a non-Debian distro like FC, which apt-get has been ported to.

[16:02:00] FinnTux: transcode v0.6.14 (C) 2001–2003 Thomas Oestreich, 2003–2004 T. Bitterberg
[16:02:00] Tommck: I don't know the requirements..
[16:02:00] Tommck: maybe check nuvexport's home page? (don't know if the info's there or not)
[16:03:00] FinnTux: [transcode] critical: invalid top/bottom clip parameter for option -j
[16:03:00] Tommck: sorry... no idea... haven't used transcode with it
[16:03:00] FinnTux: ok. thanks anyway

[19:19:00] UberDuper: Is it possible to use mythtv without any of the PVR functions?
[19:20:00] UberDuper: I'm thinking about just using it for movies and music.
[19:20:00] Krazylegz: Someone was asking that yesterday, to use it as a carputer.
[19:20:00] UberDuper: IIRC there's a mythtv carputer port somewhere.
[19:20:00] KillerBunny: UberDuper, i use it in that way.
[19:21:00] UberDuper: KillerBunny: Are you able to turn that all off, so it doesn't even show up in the menus?
[19:21:00] mchou: anyone here ever drill a hole for fans in their case?
[19:21:00] UberDuper: And doesn't try to pull a guide up?
[19:21:00] KillerBunny: UberDuper, no...
[19:21:00] Beirdo: anyone here buy cases with proper cooling?
[19:21:00] UberDuper: Didn't think so. =/
[19:21:00] ** kormoc raises his hand **
[19:22:00] kormoc: I do!
[19:22:00] mchou: Beirdo: dont be silly.
[19:22:00] KillerBunny: I think they tired the PVR functions to close to the core.
[19:22:00] UberDuper: I'm using xbmc right now, but I'm looking at h.264 and the xbox just doesn't have the cpu power for good quality h.264 encodes.
[19:22:00] Beirdo: I will not drill cases. I buy ones that don't suck
[19:22:00] mchou: Beirdo: I want to get rid of the "grill" in the rear exhaust fan.
[19:23:00] mchou: I havent seen any cases that don't have that grill.
[19:23:00] mchou: major cause of turbulence.
[19:23:00] UberDuper: Might have to look at MCE. =/
[19:23:00] GreyFoxx: UberDuper: Of course you can, just edit the xml theme to not show the tv related icons
[19:24:00] Chutt: the xbox doesn't have the cpu for good quality h264 decode, either
[19:24:00] Krazylegz: mchou: This one won't require any drilling: http://www.homedepot.com/prel80/HDUS/EN_US/di . . . amp;MID=9876 .

[19:25:00] GreyFoxx: djperegrine: No
[19:25:00] mchou: Krazylegz: lol. I'd like not to use up rest of the world's energy supply when I run my computers :)
[19:25:00] djperegrine: hrm
[19:26:00] Beirdo: bah
[19:26:00] GreyFoxx: djperegrine: Assuming the basics are already there, like videodev and so on
[19:26:00] djperegrine: I'm using knoppmyth
[19:26:00] ** Beirdo cranks up the nuclear generator **
[19:26:00] djperegrine: and I get static
[19:26:00] djperegrine: so I am assuming they are there to
[19:26:00] GreyFoxx: likely just a tuning issue
[19:26:00] Krazylegz: Beirdo: Use solar power, just for the irony. Using heat to cool!
[19:27:00] djperegrine: well no I get static in myth and mplayer
[19:27:00] GreyFoxx: And how does that stop it from being a tuning issue ?
[19:27:00] djperegrine: well I'm tuning to channels in myth
[19:28:00] djperegrine: whatever, can you give me a list of things to check for so I can fix it
[19:28:00] djperegrine: I am using ivtv 3.7h
[19:28:00] djperegrine: PVR-150MCE LP
[19:28:00] GreyFoxx: I haven't touched any of the 0.3.x versions
[19:28:00] GreyFoxx: it could just bee detecting the wrong tuner
[19:29:00] GreyFoxx: but the guys in #ivtv-dev or the ivtv mailing list would be best to help you there
[19:29:00] djperegrine: yea, When I do modprobe ivtv tuner=47 it still says no tuner set in dmesg

[19:42:00] PITABoy: yeah gentoo is what everyone uses lol
[19:42:00] PITABoy: or should anyway i love gentoo
[19:42:00] ldam: using gentoo for two years now, so this is just plain natural to me, and i didn't even consider you perhaps was not on gentoo
[19:43:00] PITABoy: i have a radio program

[19:50:00] xris: I never got mine (but noticed that it was set to expire in 3 days)
[19:50:00] xris: and we never got one for our box at work.

[19:50:00] xris: hmm
[19:50:00] xris: I've gotten them before...
[19:51:00] xris: not that it matters for me now that I'm on LxM, but I figured I'd keep filling out the surveys.

[20:54:00] xris: Beirdo: so I started adding aspect ratio stuff to nuvexport last night.
[20:54:00] Beirdo: ??
[20:55:00] Beirdo: like what aspect ratio stuff?
[20:55:00] xris: the auto-height-detection stuff
[20:55:00] xris: it's a PITA, actually.
[20:55:00] Beirdo: detecting the height of the black bars?
[20:55:00] Beirdo: how?
[20:55:00] xris: no
[20:55:00] xris: detecting a 16:9 source and knowing not to make the output avi 4:3
[20:55:00] xris: etc.
[20:55:00] Beirdo: I added that months ago
[20:56:00] xris: not for everything
[20:56:00] Beirdo: yeah, I did
[20:56:00] Beirdo: for AVI, you specify the precise resolution you want
[20:56:00] xris: nope
[20:56:00] xris: right.
[20:56:00] Beirdo: and it will keep the aspect ratio correct
[20:56:00] Beirdo: and letterbox it or pillar box
[20:56:00] xris: but it automatically assigns width before the prompt to 4:3
[20:56:00] Beirdo: ahhhhh
[20:56:00] CCFL_Man: media center edition records in microshat's modified mpeg2 format
[20:57:00] Beirdo: so you are making the default prompts show for AVI based on the input aspect ratio?
[20:57:00] Beirdo: Coool
[20:57:00] xris: yeah
[20:57:00] Beirdo: now I gotcha
[20:57:00] xris: and cleaning up the rest of the aspect ratio code so it's normalized.
[20:57:00] Beirdo: don't break it :)
[20:57:00] xris: "aspect" is ratio format, and "aspect_f" is float format
[20:58:00] Beirdo: ah, good idea
[20:58:00] xris: since there seemed to be a bit of discrepancy in there...
[20:58:00] xris: and it cleans up your "if (aspect =~ m/^1.3/ || aspect == '4:3')" stuff
[20:58:00] Beirdo: heh
[20:59:00] Beirdo: well, the 4:3 is only used for display, really
[20:59:00] Beirdo: the 1.33333 or whatever is used for calculations
[20:59:00] Beirdo: if I remember right
[20:59:00] xris: right
[20:59:00] xris: but there's nowhere specific where one or the other is set
[20:59:00] Beirdo: hehe
[20:59:00] Beirdo: yeah, it could use some tidying
[21:00:00] Beirdo: it finally pissed you off enough to change it? :)

[21:16:00] CCFL_Man: how is a xine plugin installed?
[21:16:00] DarkNight: Hoping to find a modeline I can use as a jumping off point.
[21:17:00] GreyFoxx: CCFL_Man: There is no "xine" plugin. But you can configure mythvideo and or mythdvd to use xine for playback throiugh the setup menus
[21:17:00] Beirdo: whack the weeb
[21:17:00] Beirdo: google will help you on your quest for modelines
[21:17:00] GreyFoxx: Or are you asking how to add a plugin to xine itself ?
[21:18:00] DarkNight: Yes, I've googled a bunch. Was looking to see if I could narrow which to try first by finding someone using the same chipset.
[21:18:00] CCFL_Man: GreyFoxx: i want xine to play a dvd on it's own, but it won't
[21:18:00] GreyFoxx: Then you are likely missing libdvdnav/dvdread/dvdcss libraries
[21:19:00] CCFL_Man: hmm..

[22:02:00] Tommck: well... if you're only going to be 7 ft away, I think it's a bit big :)

[22:03:00] Tommck: the biggest issue would be when you are viewing non-HD content
[22:03:00] Tommck: that's when it looks the worst
[22:03:00] Tommck: but HD looks friggin awesome :)
[22:04:00] xris: Krazylegz: sure... might as well be professional.  :)
[22:04:00] Tommck: it's a tough decision, but I would probably go with something smaller (if the price makes sense) and use the money for a house down payment
[22:04:00] Tommck: the rates are low now, but won't be for long
[22:05:00] Tommck: best to take advantage of it now before it's too late
[22:05:00] Tommck: you can buy the bigger TV later :)
[22:05:00] ** Tommck has just proved he's officially old by recommending _against_ buying the biggest, coolest toy you can **
[22:06:00] xris: Tommck: same reason I don't buy any new toys lately... but buy $300 of compost mulch
[22:07:00] xris: and maybe get a $500 mixer for the kitchen....
[22:08:00] Tommck: :)
[22:08:00] Krazylegz: Whoa, a $500 mixer, maybe I SHOULD work with xris.
[22:08:00] Tommck: of course, I do have one priority straight: http://www.espressozone.com/saeco-vienna-digital.html
[22:08:00] Tommck: killer coffee maker :)
[22:09:00] xris: Krazylegz: my grandma sold her $30k house ('70's) for $415k and gave us $200 (no k) as a housewarming present.
[22:09:00] xris: that, and my wife is a chef.
[22:10:00] Tommck: xris – sweet!
[22:10:00] Tommck: hehe
[22:10:00] Tommck: xris – what's she doing with the money?
[22:10:00] xris: Tommck: we have a $1200–1500 saeco here at work.
[22:10:00] xris: Tommck: retiring (at 83)
[22:10:00] Tommck: nice
[22:10:00] Tommck: WTF does she need $400K for?
[22:10:00] Tommck: she's 83?
[22:10:00] xris: moved to napa (where my aunt lives), bought a trailer for like $150k
[22:11:00] Tommck: she needs medecine, food, diapers, a TV and a casket at this point
[22:11:00] ** Tommck marvels at how insensitive he just was **
[22:11:00] xris: heh. she still goes to the gym 3 times/week.
[22:11:00] Tommck: wow
[22:11:00] Tommck: I haven't been to a gym 3 times in the last 20 years
[22:12:00] xris: anyway, we're trying to convince her travel... but at least now she can live well on something more than social security.
[22:12:00] Tommck: definitely
[22:12:00] ** Tommck is getting really irrirated with hacking nuvexport :) **
[22:13:00] xris: Tommck: what are you doing?
[22:13:00] Tommck: I want to get nuvexport to trim a letterboxed video (16x9 jammed into a 4x3) back to a 16x9
[22:13:00] Tommck: that way I can burn a widescreen DVD from it
[22:13:00] Tommck: I'm doing all my work outside nuvexport now
[22:13:00] Tommck: just took the output from --debug
[22:13:00] kormoc: hrm.

[22:14:00] Tommck: who?
[22:15:00] xris: Tommck: that's one of the things on my todo list.. so let me know what you end up with.
[22:15:00] xris: was actually hoping to be able to auto-detect that kind of thing and crop widescreen and letterbox stuff.
[22:15:00] Tommck: if I get it to work, I'll let you know, definitely
[22:15:00] Menthor: if i get the files from web, and put into a box (a linux box) can i play my avi movies or mp3 files ?
[22:15:00] Tommck: Menthor – yes
[22:16:00] Tommck: I assume you mean with MythTV... if you use MythMusic and MythVideo, you can do that

[22:22:00] Tommck: right, but you want to use a remote control and have a display on your TV?
[22:22:00] GreyFoxx: I have a mythtv on a bootable usb stick version of slax. total of 159Meg, runs myth, the plugins, xine and mplayer

[23:34:00] lane: hi all. I was wondering if anybody could point me to any docs that explain the difference between XV and Xvmc. I just got my Air2PC card set up in Myth – some channels are fine, some are unwatchable. I've looked through the mailing list archives and the Myth Playback config page. It appears that XvMC is something I can enable via a checkbox in the Playback config page. Where can I enable XV? (I have an nvidia 440 mx)
[23:36:00] lane: I know this is a basic question :)
[23:36:00] lane: but any pointers would be greatly appreciated
[23:40:00] xris: lane: how fast is your machine?
[23:40:00] kormoc: lane, in the frontend's setup somewhere is where you check it
[23:40:00] lane: I've got a 2.8 GHz P4 HT
[23:40:00] xris: (xvmc also has to be compiled into myth, which it may not be in your distro)
[23:41:00] lane: hmm... I'm running FC4 with myth rpms from Axel
[23:41:00] xris: those should be ok
[23:41:00] xris: also, try `nice -n0 mythfrontend`
[23:41:00] lane: ah
[23:41:00] xris: your machine SHOULD be fast enough without that, though
[23:42:00] Charbal_: Can a MythTV backend emulate a Windows Media Center Edition PC? Specifically, I'm wondering whether it'll be possible to trick an unmodified Xbox 360 into thinking it's a MCE PC so it can stream from it.
[23:42:00] lane: will try that – currently I am running sudo on the frontend and backend
