[00:06:00] Krazylegz: Interesting. Do you know which settings you're using with vlc?

[00:10:00] Sylwae: but when i watch tv from mplayer, it's os ...
[00:11:00] Sylwae: ok
[00:11:00] Krazylegz: By the way, doesn't trancoding on the fly take too much CPU power for you?
[00:11:00] Sylwae: any ideas ?

[00:17:00] sandos: anyone using a sempron 2600+? I assume this is more than enough for one frontend... what about backend+2 frontends with a pvr 150? I think it should be fine but...
[00:20:00] NightMonkey: Krazylegz: transcoding – nope, got an AMD 1600+ in there, and I have a PVR-350, so the box isn't doing too much anyway (just commercial skip scans).
[00:20:00] NightMonkey: Krazylegz: And the latest and greatest VLC reduced CPU load somewhat.

[00:37:00] NightMonkey: OK, is trac the best place to go to see what's coming up in 0.19?
[00:37:00] otwin (n=Use@217.31.78.25) has left #mythtv-users
[00:55:00] pfn: ok, I'm confused, if mythtv backend depends on mysql, why does mythtv compile without mysql? how does it interface with mysql? command line?
[00:55:00] Chutt: qt
[00:55:00] Krazylegz: You can setup a MythTV frontend that does not require MySQL.
[00:56:00] NightMonkey: Krazylegz: Still needs to talk to it, via a client interface, of course.
[00:56:00] Chutt: there's no source dependency on mysql, since it uses qt's sql abstraction layer
[00:56:00] Krazylegz: What for?
[00:56:00] Krazylegz: Ah.
[00:56:00] pfn: the mythtvbackend doesn't require mysql?
[00:56:00] pfn: oh, qt abstraction
[00:56:00] pfn: hmm, so it should be "trivial" to get it to support pgsql, then...
[00:57:00] Chutt: nope
[00:57:00] NightMonkey: pfn: Nope, it is still using SQL.

[00:57:00] NightMonkey: pfn: Correction: MySQL-ified SQL.
[00:58:00] NightMonkey: brb – need coffee
[00:58:00] pfn: right, but that should be "simple" to fix
[00:58:00] pfn: it's not as if mysql has the market cornered on functionality
[01:01:00] Gumby (n=gumby@unaffiliated/gumby) has joined #mythtv-users
[01:03:00] NightMonkey: pfn: But it sure is fast.
[01:04:00] thomerz_ (n=thom@N619P009.adsl.highway.telekom.at) has left #mythtv-users
[01:05:00] pfn: depends on the consumer and application, so fast is relative
[01:12:00] NightMonkey: pfn: Sure. And, it would seem, for this application and these consumers, mySQL is fast. But, hey, if you change the source code and SQL to accomodate PostgreSQL, I eagerly await your benchmarks! ;)
[01:12:00] pfn: I'm not so interested in benchmarks so much as just making it work
[01:12:00] pfn: I've no interest in running mysql, ever
[01:12:00] Krazylegz: MySQL isn't working for you?
[01:12:00] pfn: and if that means never using mythtv, oh well
[01:13:00] pfn: no, I despise mysql
[01:13:00] pfn: as much as I despise php
[01:13:00] twisted_one: pfn: port it to postgresql then =P
[01:13:00] twisted_one: pfn: what are you a C purist?
[01:13:00] pfn: it's something I'll consider
[01:13:00] Krazylegz: Heh, so I guess you won't be using MythWeb.
[01:13:00] NightMonkey: pfn: See ya.
[01:13:00] twisted_one: pfn: why do you not like php?
[01:13:00] pfn: because php is a garbage language
[01:14:00] twisted_one: ok....
[01:14:00] twisted_one: garbage is so technical of a term... =P
[01:14:00] pfn: it's hacky, it does not grow well, poorly managed namespaces (none), etc.
[01:14:00] twisted_one: there ya go =)
[01:14:00] Krazylegz: So, JSP?
[01:14:00] Krazylegz: Perl?
[01:14:00] Krazylegz: What's your poison?
[01:14:00] pfn: I'd do jsp perl or python
[01:15:00] Krazylegz: By the way, are you the same pfn who was in #audiworld on EFnet?
[01:15:00] pfn: was?
[01:15:00] pfn: same
[01:15:00] twisted_one: lol

[01:48:00] fweeee: Hello – quick question – has anyone gotten the new Microsoft Media Centre keyboard working with linux?
[01:48:00] NightMonkey: fweeee: Wrong channel.
[01:49:00] fweeee: NightMonkey: Well, I figure a Mythtv channel is the kind of channel people would be trying it in.
[01:49:00] fweeee: Seeing as though mythtv is a media centre.
[01:49:00] NightMonkey: fweeee: Try your distro's channel.
[01:49:00] fweeee: NightMonkey: So it would be specific for distros?
[01:50:00] nuongu1: fweee: What's not working?
[01:50:00] nuongu1: What distro?
[01:50:00] fweeee: nuongu1: Nothings not working – its just it looks cool, but I dont want to buy it and then have it not work in linux (Fedora core 4)
[01:50:00] NightMonkey: fweeee: There you go. Better to ask in #fedora.
[01:51:00] nuongu1: It'll probably work just fine, if it's a USB keyboard
[01:51:00] fweeee: Yeah – I'll give there a go – but unless the people are using fedora for a media centre, its very unlikely they would have tried this keyboard.
[01:51:00] nuongu1: However, most of the media keys probably will not work outta the box
[01:51:00] nuongu1: I've tried a few fancy keyboards, and none the media keys work out of the box
[01:52:00] nuongu1: The sad thing is (for me as a KDE user) that many of them can't be customised easily either
[01:52:00] fweeee: nuongu1: I kind of figure that – but everything I read about it says "This will only work with windows media centre". It could just be Microsoft BS to steer people towards their OS.
[01:52:00] fweeee: Hmmm
[01:52:00] nuongu1: If you invoke the control center and try to assign something to them, they don't get recognised at all
[01:53:00] nuongu1: Even when you invoke that X program that reports low level keyboard events, can't remember the name right now
[01:53:00] fweeee: xev
[01:53:00] fweeee: ?
[01:54:00] nuongu1: I have a ms media keyboard, a couple years old now, and keys like "My Music" don't show up at all when I invoke xev
[01:54:00] nuongu1: yeah, xev
[01:54:00] nuongu1: Well whaddya know?
[01:55:00] nuongu1: I haven't tried this since FC2, and more of the keys are recognised!  :)
[01:55:00] nuongu1: I should try the KDE control center thing again...
[01:55:00] fweeee: Hmmm
[01:55:00] CanadaB[a] is now known as CanadaBoy
[01:56:00] nuongu1: "Log Off" and "My Music" are still not recognised/reported/whatever by xev...
[01:56:00] nuongu1: But "Media" FF, RW, volume up&down and play/pause/stop and mute are
[01:56:00] fweeee: nuongu1: What distro is this with?
[01:57:00] CanadaBoy is now known as CanadaB[a]
[01:57:00] nuongu1: But this is a ms natural multimedia 1.0a
[01:57:00] Krazylegz: NightMonkey: Can I PM about some VLC stuff?

[02:00:00] nuongu1: But, the KDE control center, when I go to "Keyboard Shortcuts" won't allow me to assign the "Media" key to invoking Juk!
[02:00:00] fweeee: nuongu1: It reports all of them now?
[02:01:00] nuongu1: control center doesn't seem to be listening to those keys
[02:02:00] fweeee: bugger. But at least you can use xmodmap to do something with them.
[02:02:00] fweeee: Maybe not quite the same..
[02:03:00] nuongu1: Not the same, and I've only glanced at xmodmap – seems pretty complicated
[02:04:00] fweeee: nuongu1: Meh – I'm a linux newbie (only learned about linux while installing mythtv a few months back), and it was fairly simple.
[02:04:00] nuongu1: What was simple?
[02:04:00] fweeee: using xmodmap.

[02:10:00] fweeee: nuongu1: Persistant? I guess you would have to run the xmodmap command automatically when you boot up for that to happen – I run xmodmap in part of my command to start mythtv.
[02:10:00] pfn: can mythfrontend run on a remote X11 or only local?

[02:13:00] Krazylegz: I suppose you could export it?
[02:13:00] nuongu1: fweeee: I imagine that on a brand new kb like that, there are more keys for which xev doesn't report any events
[02:14:00] fweeee: nuongu1: Yeah – I'm kind of suspecting that. Whcih is a pity – the keyboard looks really cool (and comes with a remote).

[02:19:00] lwizardl: is mythtv able to record in HD
[02:19:00] fweeee: nuongu1: http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/mouseandkey . . . aspx?pid=038
[02:20:00] fweeee: lwizardl: I'm pretty sure that if you can receive in HD, it can record it.
[02:20:00] SlicerDicer- (n=Slicer@macceketh.com) Quit (Remote closed the connection)
[02:20:00] vividan: lwizardl, last I heard you can record from any tv card supported, and there are some over-the-air only HD card supported
[02:21:00] lwizardl: fweeee: but does mythtv record it in hd or in standard def

[02:21:00] lwizardl: vividan: cool that was one of the things i was wondering if it will keep it hd or downgrade it to sd
[02:22:00] nuongu1: mine: http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.pr . . . ct_Id=196807
[02:22:00] fweeee: lwizardl: It would record it in whatever def you are receiving it in – my dvb tuner card sees SD and HD as being distinct channels – so when I watch/record tv, I tell it which one to use.

[02:24:00] SlicerDicer- (n=Slicer@macceketh.com) has joined #mythtv-users
[02:24:00] fweeee: nuongu1: Hmmm, and how many of those buttons have you gotten working right?

[02:29:00] fweeee: nuongu1: Ahhhh. I'm looking for a keyboard exclusivly for mythtv.
[02:30:00] nuongu1: fweeee: that's the idea for my mediapilot
[02:30:00] fweeee: I'm using a usb cheapo right now – annoying as hell having to use it from a metre from the tv.
[02:30:00] fweeee: nuongu1: mediapilot?

[02:31:00] fweeee: (Just checked the name of it)
[02:31:00] lwizardl: fweeee: Not exactly. I'm wanting to Have mythtv create the xml file for each recorded show. so I can always tell when "show – episode" aired
[02:32:00] fweeee: lwizardl: I see.
[02:34:00] lwizardl: and on the mythtv site it said it uses xmltv and on it link it says what one looks like but i'm not sure if thats the default look of one or not

[02:43:00] lwizardl: spitfire_aus: i'm not using Mythtv yet (still deciding one whats best for me) but if i use myth i think i'll use this to keep track of stuff
[02:44:00] lwizardl: spitfire_aus: does it track all freespace?
[02:44:00] lwizardl: like multiple hd's
[02:45:00] spitfire_aus: Ohh its just the one from mythtv
[02:46:00] spitfire_aus: Not exactly sure what it checks
[02:46:00] spitfire_aus: Its whatever myth knows as free space
[02:46:00] spitfire_aus: Like recordable space
[02:46:00] lwizardl: well I want to have multiple hard drives setup in my dvr
[02:47:00] spitfire_aus: Are you going to set them up using raid?
[02:47:00] lwizardl: and it will be a dedicated dvr box so all the hd's will be recordable space
[02:47:00] fweeee: lwizardl: I think they would have to be set up as raid or a logical volume for myth to use them all (for recording)
[02:48:00] lwizardl: fweeee: I was thinking about having them as resierfs (sp?)
[02:48:00] lwizardl: but i'm still in the planing steps
[02:49:00] fweeee: Hmmm. Not sure what resierfs are – but I'm going to go the LVM way when I expand my machine.
[02:49:00] lwizardl: first thing I'm going to do is install mythtv frontend on my xbox and see how the setup goes that way and if i like it (yes i know i can't record a show on my xbox)
[02:49:00] lwizardl: lvm?
[02:49:00] lwizardl: linux fs
[02:50:00] nuongu1: lvm == Logical Volume Manager
[02:50:00] fweeee: lwizardl: Logical volume management. Its a way of making linux treat multiple hdd's as one big one, without any raid stuff.
[02:50:00] fweeee: I think there is more stuff you can do with it (lvm), but thats what I plan on doing with it.
[02:50:00] nuongu1: http://sources.redhat.com/lvm2/
[02:50:00] lwizardl: well this is what i was thinking http://www.namesys.com/
[02:51:00] nuongu1: I'm pretty sure you can use reiserfs on lvm systems...
[02:51:00] nuongu1: I think they're orthogonal

[09:40:00] marc_in_lux: hi laga :-)
[09:40:00] marc_in_lux: works very fine, mythvideo with the internal player
[09:40:00] laga: ho are you?
[09:40:00] marc_in_lux: :-)
[09:40:00] laga: nice :)
[09:40:00] laga: i really got to try it, too
[09:40:00] marc_in_lux: I have other trouble, though...
[09:40:00] marc_in_lux: I have a PVR350 in my frontend
[09:40:00] laga: do you just put Internal in the field for the player command?
[09:40:00] marc_in_lux: yes
[09:41:00] laga: cool, thanks. what's your trouble?
[09:41:00] marc_in_lux: and I use mencoder to run over the files to make them mpeg2
[09:41:00] marc_in_lux: my backend records nicely, and I use my computer as a frontend – all recordings come out great
[09:42:00] marc_in_lux: but when I use my PVR350 equipped frontend, recordings longer than about one hour are unwatcheable
[09:42:00] marc_in_lux: after around 20 minutes, the playback stops and it brings me back to the menu
[09:42:00] marc_in_lux: it just says ' >> Player timeout
[09:42:00] marc_in_lux: '
[09:42:00] marc_in_lux: sometimes, preceded by "ivtv picture start overflow, please inform mythtv-dev@mythtv.org
[09:42:00] marc_in_lux: "
[09:43:00] marc_in_lux: shorter recordings work nicely
[09:43:00] laga: well, it might be a good idea to do that then. remember that you need to sign up first because it's a mailing list
[09:44:00] marc_in_lux: yeah... thought I wouldn't be the first with that problem
[09:44:00] marc_in_lux: they must have thought of something when they put that into the code
[09:44:00] laga: right
[09:45:00] laga: try searching the ML at www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/
[09:47:00] laga: i'm afk.

[10:27:00] marc_in_lux: might be more or less important, depending on where you are geographically
[10:27:00] laga: oh, ok. i thought it would also work to get better guide data for one channel form different sources.

[10:47:00] otwin: do they work on dual-channel sound?
[10:47:00] Chutt: right – it works, it just needs cleaned up
[10:47:00] otwin: so you can choose between two languages on one channel?

[11:31:00] chris: well, for me I have Video for Linux built into the kernel... and that's it... and then I have I2C built into the kernel... and ALGOBIT is also built in, but you must also set the EEPROM I2C support only as a module.

[11:57:00] chris: did you build EEPROM module support into the I2C kernel?
[11:57:00] thechris: as a module
[11:57:00] chris: hmm fucked up

[16:02:00] GreyFoxx: You can only use a 350's decoder with it's tvout
[16:02:00] PatrickDK: you will use two different tv's
[16:02:00] GreyFoxx: You can't decode back into memory to be sent out via another device

[16:02:00] GreyFoxx: jono: Correct
[16:03:00] GreyFoxx: Any decoding done with the 350 is ONLY sent out it's TV out port
[16:03:00] jono: is there a card with rgb and dvi outputs with a build in encoder/decoder?
[16:03:00] whyz: is it possible to adjust the gui size relative to the output? as it is now, i can't even see most of the menus because they're in the side of the tv

[16:03:00] PatrickDK: t think it's being sold yet though
[16:04:00] PatrickDK: atleast I haven't been able to locate it when I was looking
[16:04:00] GreyFoxx: None that have drivers for linux that are not proprietary and unsupported but all players I've heard of :)
[16:04:00] jono: hmmm
[16:04:00] GreyFoxx: There is a card from Sigma designs em86xx chipset (decoder, not an encoder)
[16:05:00] GreyFoxx: Besides if you are capturing via the 350 you are already getting some loss since it's an analog capture
[16:05:00] jono: is there an encoder/decoder card that I could use to then output via my matrox card?
[16:05:00] GreyFoxx: No
[16:05:00] GreyFoxx: Well
[16:05:00] PatrickDK: not one supported by mythtv
[16:05:00] jono: oh
[16:05:00] PatrickDK: but there are cards that can
[16:05:00] GreyFoxx: the 250's handle capture/encoding which you can playback via software through the matrox
[16:06:00] GreyFoxx: is hardware decoding a must ?
[16:06:00] jono: I just want optimal performance but I don't want a lower quality of output
[16:06:00] ** jono wants a DVD to look like a DVD :) **
[16:07:00] ** PatrickDK just wants hdtv dvd's :) **
[16:08:00] GreyFoxx: jono: Every analog step will add some loss
[16:08:00] GreyFoxx: So avoid analog if at all possible
[16:08:00] Tommck: jono – rip ISO files and buy lots of hard drives
[16:08:00] GreyFoxx: But honestly, unless you have real shitty tv out the loss is not that much
[16:09:00] jono: I have a thompson widescreen tv
[16:09:00] jono: is s-video good quality?
[16:10:00] GreyFoxx: better than composite, and is the best that you can get with the average tv
[16:10:00] GreyFoxx: but component/rgb/scart are better
[16:10:00] GreyFoxx: dvi is about the best
[16:11:00] PatrickDK: heh, I wish I could get my svideo on my 350 looking good
[16:11:00] PatrickDK: it looks like crap, but the composite looks excelent
[16:11:00] jono: so scart is quality right?
[16:11:00] GreyFoxx: I used one for a couple days. Looked perfect. But it wasn't much better than the svideo out of my video card so I gave it back. Wasn't worth the money for me
[16:11:00] jono: oh hang on, the pvr-350 has scart output in europe
[16:12:00] GreyFoxx: the Media MVP so far has been the best of the stuff I've compared
[16:13:00] jono: so composite is the best output, right?
[16:14:00] PatrickDK: worst
[16:14:00] laga: no, s-vhs
[16:14:00] laga: well, DVI is the best imho ;)
[16:14:00] jono: is composite better than scart?

[16:14:00] jono: I am confusing it :P
[16:15:00] jono: the pvr-350 has: Video outputs: S-Video and composite. SCART in Europe
[16:15:00] jono: if I output a DVD with those outputs, will it look as good as the picture I get with my dvd player plugged into my tv with a scart lead?

[16:18:00] jono: I just dont want to take a hit in quality on my pciture
[16:18:00] GreyFoxx: the mythtv dvd player is not complete, so you will want to use xine/mplayer for dvd's
[16:19:00] laga: GreyFoxx: does it menus yet?
[16:19:00] jono: right
[16:19:00] GreyFoxx: There have been no patches to that part in a while, so no
[16:19:00] jono: but will the quality be the same as my dvd player?
[16:19:00] GreyFoxx: how many ways can I say no ?
[16:19:00] jono: oh, ok
[16:19:00] GreyFoxx: It can be CLOSE, and if you have a really crappy player it MIGHT better
[16:20:00] GreyFoxx: but odds are it will not be identical
[16:20:00] GreyFoxx: But it could be enough so that you can't tell the difference
[16:20:00] jono: I just want a nice crisp picture
[16:20:00] GreyFoxx: which like I said will depend on all of the factors I have listed previously
[16:20:00] jono: if I plugged my pvr-350 from the svideo to svideo socket on my tv, would that be better than scart?
[16:21:00] GreyFoxx: I give up

[16:25:00] jono: its a shame there is no card with rgb out, and an encoder/decoder
[16:26:00] Krazylegz: Well, the decoder is a mixed blessing.
[16:26:00] Krazylegz: At least, I think it is.
[16:26:00] PatrickDK: decoder you have X quality

[17:56:00] Dibblah: How do you mean you can't see any channels?
[17:56:00] deepdelver: first he says cant connect to database
[17:57:00] Sneaker__: Dibblah, when I push watch live tv I get blank screen
[17:57:00] Sneaker__: and mythbackend says that no pids set
[17:57:00] deepdelver: then i want to go to the next screen this works sometimes, sometimes i can go to the next screen but then he hangs on the end button
[17:57:00] Sneaker__: mut they are set
[17:57:00] Krazylegz: Well, you should figure out why it can't connect to the database first.
[17:57:00] Dibblah: deepdelver: Give it up. Get FC4, install, then *follow* Jarod's.
[17:57:00] Krazylegz: Yeah, FC4 would be better.
[17:58:00] deepdelver: yeah and then again 4 weeks busy with ivtv and all that other shit
[17:58:00] deepdelver: owwwww nooo....
[17:58:00] Sneaker__: I think it I should somehow bind channel.mplexid <=> dtv_multiplex.mplexid
[17:58:00] Dibblah: deepdelver: You're coming across the focus bug, I think, in a QT version I can't remember.
[18:00:00] deepdelver: ok so it can be solved?
[18:00:00] deepdelver: then i going to download fedora core 4
[18:00:00] Dibblah: Sure. Install a recent QT version.
[18:01:00] deepdelver: where do i get that
[18:01:00] deepdelver: and what is it
[18:01:00] Dibblah: Like I said. You get it by default with FC4.
[18:02:00] deepdelver: but i now using fc3
[18:02:00] Krazylegz: You could try upgrading QT I suppose, but I don't know which version will fix your issue.
[18:02:00] deepdelver: :p isn't it possible to get it on fc3
[18:02:00] Krazylegz: I guess we can see.
[18:02:00] Dibblah: Really, I don't care. I run Gentoo, therefore have bigger issues ;)
[18:03:00] Krazylegz: Heh, same her.e
[18:03:00] Krazylegz: I haven't run RH for a measurable amount of time since 7.3.
[18:04:00] deepdelver: ok i download fc 4
[18:04:00] deepdelver: and hopefully i get it working focking shit ivtv driver
[18:04:00] deepdelver: i hate it
[18:04:00] Krazylegz: If you know which version you have working, then just remember the version number, etc.
[18:04:00] Krazylegz: It shouldn't be too hard.
[18:05:00] Krazylegz: Do you know which version of qt you are running?
[18:06:00] deepdelver: no but do you know where i can find the dvd version of fedora core 4
[18:06:00] deepdelver: can find it on fedora.redhat.com
[18:06:00] Krazylegz: Dude.
[18:06:00] Krazylegz: You can BT it.
[18:06:00] deepdelver: ?
[18:07:00] deepdelver: what is that
[18:07:00] Krazylegz: BitTorrent.
[18:07:00] Krazylegz: They won't provide a download of the DVD because it chews up their bandwidth.
[18:07:00] deepdelver: ow
[18:08:00] Krazylegz: deepdelver: ftp://ftp.quicknet.nl/pub/Linux/download.fedo . . . i386-DVD.iso
[18:08:00] Krazylegz: The mirrors have it listed.
[18:08:00] Krazylegz: I presume that one is near you. Die Niederlande sind nicht so gross.

[18:12:00] deepdelver: bash: emerge: command not found
[18:12:00] Dibblah: No. Make it stop.
[18:12:00] deepdelver: ??
[18:12:00] Krazylegz: deepdelver: If you are going to use Fedora, you should probably get some stuff together first. RPMFind is a good resource, for example.
[18:12:00] Dibblah: Never mind.
[18:13:00] Krazylegz: Haha.
[18:13:00] Krazylegz: I'd like to see "yum install portage" next. :-)

[18:13:00] deepdelver: Nothing to do

[18:15:00] laga: yep
[18:16:00] deepdelver: ok
[18:16:00] laga: so i almost bought a dvd writer today, but i wasn't sure because they only had benq and lg. can anyone comment on those?

[18:16:00] deepdelver: wich type
[18:16:00] deepdelver: ?
[18:17:00] Dibblah: I have the LG. Just used it to do a 600Gb backup. 2 disks failed verify.
[18:17:00] Dibblah: Which isn't at all bad out of 150ish.
[18:17:00] laga: deepdelver: i don't remember, sorry.

[19:38:00] pfn: ah, ok, so I just registered on labs.zap2it... I guess I should wait a bit

[19:39:00] ** NB_Ubuntu sighs **
[19:39:00] NB_Ubuntu: "g++ command not found"
[19:39:00] NB_Ubuntu: of all the..
[19:39:00] simcop2387: you need to install gcc

[19:40:00] simcop2387: pfn: usually that helps

[19:42:00] simcop2387: cool
[19:42:00] pfn: hmm, so does winmyth require mysql... I hope not
[19:42:00] Surye: pfn: No, it's a frontend
[19:43:00] simcop2387: NB_Ubuntu: now you need to install them, sudo make install
[19:43:00] pfn: ok, I misunderstood then, someone mentioned yesterday that mythfrontend used mysql
[19:43:00] pfn: so I inferred that winmyth must as well
[19:43:00] Krazylegz: I do wish I understood the MySQL hate.
[19:43:00] pfn: because mysql is a garbage database
[19:43:00] pfn: might as well be using sqlite
[19:43:00] NB_Ubuntu: I got a bunch of modules saying it conflicts with the ivtv module
[19:43:00] Krazylegz: So, you're against installing it, even though it would work fine for this purpose?
[19:44:00] pfn: I'm against installing it because it's a waste of system resources
[19:44:00] pfn: because I have other perfectly good databases running on the operating system
[19:44:00] batdog|gone is now known as batdog
[19:44:00] pfn: because, like I said, it could very well just be sqlite, cuz mysql sucksass that bad  :p
[19:44:00] Krazylegz: It would be interesting to have it work well with other databases.
[19:44:00] simcop2387: NB_Ubuntu: paste the errors at http://sial.org/pbot and give us the url of your paste
[19:45:00] pfn: I'm just trying out the patch in trac#240

[19:46:00] NB_Ubuntu: http://sial.org/pbot/13031
[19:46:00] NB_Ubuntu: it gives some examples of how to hide them..
[19:46:00] NB_Ubuntu: should I do that?
[19:46:00] pfn: mysql is as bad a database as php is a bad a language, it lacks the required functionality that comprise a real rdbms
[19:47:00] Surye: o_O like... sqlite?
[19:47:00] Surye: Which is only a subset of SQL
[19:47:00] pfn: mysql completely disregards the standard called sql92  :p
[19:47:00] NB_Ubuntu: should I go ahead and hide those files?
[19:47:00] simcop2387: NB_Ubuntu: yep
[19:47:00] NB_Ubuntu: ok
[19:47:00] Krazylegz: I'm not defending MySQL here, but I do think that it works for this application. It doesn't have to be the best for MythTV, just "good enough".
[19:47:00] simcop2387: NB_Ubuntu: those are the original ones from the kernel that will not work with ivtv
[19:48:00] Surye: And sqlite doesn't fully impliment sql92 =P
[19:48:00] Surye: besides mysql 4.1 is much more sql92 complient
[19:48:00] pfn: I never said sqlite was better, I said using mysql, might as well be using sqlite
[19:48:00] simcop2387: Krazylegz: yep, though i'd love to have postgres instead :)
[19:48:00] pfn: much more, but not yet
[19:48:00] NB_Ubuntu: ok depmod didn't display anything
[19:48:00] Surye: name a sql rdbm that is
[19:48:00] simcop2387: NB_Ubuntu: cool
[19:49:00] NB_Ubuntu: so the drivers are installed?
[19:49:00] simcop2387: NB_Ubuntu: yes
[19:49:00] NB_Ubuntu: cool
[19:49:00] NB_Ubuntu: bbiab, plugging the cable in
[19:49:00] simcop2387: now do sudo /sbin/modprobe ivtv and paste the output from 'dmesg' onto sial.org for us
[19:49:00] Krazylegz: I, for one, am quite elated that MythTV doesn't require Oracle. :-)
[19:49:00] Surye: Haha
[19:50:00] NB_Ubuntu: Module ivtv could not be found
[19:50:00] Surye: You want a complete disregard for SQL92, try MSSQL
[19:50:00] Krazylegz: You guys have just named the two databases I have to work with everyday.
[19:50:00] Krazylegz: As well as the language.
[19:50:00] Surye: Krazylegz: As do I =P
[19:50:00] ** Krazylegz gets a knife to stab himself with **
[19:50:00] simcop2387: NB_Ubuntu: redo the install setup "sudo make install" ivtv might not have installed itself while those were there
[19:51:00] NB_Ubuntu: I just tried that..
[19:51:00] simcop2387: cd /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ivtv
[19:51:00] NB_Ubuntu: no such directory
[19:51:00] pfn: time to walk the damn dog...
[19:51:00] Surye: I'm thinking of installing mythtv and mythplugins from svn...
[19:52:00] Surye: And I can't decide what to get first, another 150, or a new HD
[19:52:00] simcop2387: NB_Ubuntu: hmm that makes it sound like its not installed properly, paste all of the output from sudo make install onto sial.org
[19:52:00] PatrickDK: heh, I have some large mysql systems
[19:52:00] PatrickDK: and I believe yahoo is still running off mysql

[22:40:00] NightBird: why would myth cause a segmentation fault..
[22:42:00] ** NightBird takes a break from it for now **
[22:42:00] PatrickDK: it doesn't have enough error checking
[22:42:00] ** NightBird watches anime **
[22:42:00] PatrickDK: I found mythtv-setup segfaults if it can't connect to the database correctly
[22:43:00] ** NightBird nods **
[22:43:00] NightBird: thats whats happening, but I can't figure out how to fix that
[22:44:00] PatrickDK: all you have to do is cat the sample file into mysql
[22:44:00] PatrickDK: unless you have multible computers your running myth on
[22:44:00] ascii`: why cant i scan for channels in mythtv-setup
[22:44:00] ascii`: ?
[22:44:00] PatrickDK: then you need to add some more grants
[22:44:00] NightBird: cat the sample file?
[22:44:00] PatrickDK: ascii, well, there is no channel scan, that I have found
[22:44:00] PatrickDK: you have to add them manually
[22:45:00] PatrickDK: or use xmltv to insert them
[22:45:00] NightBird: how do I cat the sample file to mysql?
[22:46:00] PatrickDK: look at the mythtv setup manual

[22:47:00] laga: ascii`: it doesn't work in 0.18
[22:47:00] GreyFoxx: NightBird: What exactly are you trying to accomplish ?
[22:48:00] NightBird: GreyFoxx, I'm trying to get myth to work
[22:48:00] GreyFoxx: Note the word "exactly"
[22:49:00] NightBird: oh
[22:49:00] NightBird: well as of right now, I'm trying to setup mysql since that isn't working as of right now

[22:50:00] laga: ascii`: it works for me with the version i got from SVN. but to be honest: if you can't get mythtv working, don't try svn
[22:52:00] GreyFoxx: NightBird: and at what point are you stuck (which I assume isn't already covered by the docs on mythtv.org)
[22:52:00] ** NightBird can't find mc.sql **
[22:52:00] NightBird: I'm trying to setup the sql database I guess
[22:55:00] GreyFoxx: did you install myth via a package or source ?
[22:55:00] NightBird: package
[22:55:00] GreyFoxx: the mc.sql file is in the source, but if you used a package I wouldn't know where it put it
[22:55:00] GreyFoxx: but it's only like 2 or 3 lines
[22:55:00] laga: NightBird: try /usr/share/mythtv/
[22:56:00] NightBird: I'm there right now
[22:56:00] NightBird: found it
[22:56:00] NightBird: in sql
[22:56:00] GreyFoxx: Well if you have that, then I would point you to : http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-6.html#ss6.2
[22:57:00] NightBird: yeah
[22:57:00] NightBird: thats where I was working at
[22:58:00] GreyFoxx: and ....
[22:58:00] NightBird: hey...
[22:58:00] NightBird: myth-setup is working...
[22:59:00] GreyFoxx: What was wrong ?
[22:59:00] NightBird: I had to put that file in
[22:59:00] NightBird: once I found the mc.sql or whatever

[23:14:00] laga: stop complaining. zap2it gotta be the easist thing ever.
[23:14:00] GreyFoxx: Maybe you should consider reading the rest of the docs
[23:14:00] GreyFoxx: that's in there
[23:14:00] NightBird: ok ok

[23:15:00] PatrickDK: works on first try
[23:16:00] PatrickDK: it only took me two days, and that includes compiling from source, everything, on a 800mhz p3
[23:16:00] NightBird: well, the main problem was trying to figure out how to get s-video working
[23:16:00] NightBird: that and I'm a newbie to linux
[23:18:00] NightBird: awesome
[23:22:00] NightBird: hm... fill database will take awhile, won't it?
[23:22:00] Raven_301: PatrickDK: what howto are you referring to??
[23:23:00] GreyFoxx: NightBird: the first time is the longest. I think around 5–10 minutes
[23:23:00] ** NightBird waits then **
[23:24:00] Raven_301: NightBird: what howto was PatrickDK talking about??
[23:25:00] NightBird: ?

[23:32:00] JamMini: though afaik im running the latest build of myth back end
[23:32:00] JamMini: any ideas?
[23:32:00] laga: it's likely that your frontend is built from SVN. try to find a release build

[23:51:00] redf0x: I already have digital cable, it was that or sat
[23:51:00] redf0x: do you know if it is possible to change the channel over firewire, or will I still have to do an ir blaster?
