| [00:00:00] | NightMonkey: | Does any zap2it users here have a lot of "NO DATA" channels that need to be purged? |
| [00:00:00] | NightMonkey: | Does any="Do any"... |
| [00:00:00] | NightMonkey: | And are also capable of backing up (and restoring) their mysql DB? |

| [00:08:00] | Juski: | lol – had to go downstairs to reset it again anyway |
| [00:08:00] | levolap: | Juski, I feel your pain. reboot does not always succeed (sometimes it does, strange enough) |
| [00:09:00] | laga: | Juski: ok ;) |
| [00:09:00] | GreyFoxx: | NightMonkey: the further away from "now" in the listings the more of those I seen in the 8pm-12am timerange on some mchannels |

| [00:20:00] | laga: | Cardoe: well, it's a set top box. it can receive DVB-S and DVB-C, and you can hack it and put linux on it |
| [00:20:00] | Juski: | Cardoe.. it's mostly just a cable or satellite receiver |
| [00:20:00] | NightMonkey: | GreyFoxx: I'm looking for testers on a SQL statement that will take care of this. I've tested it on my DB (after backup, of course), and it deleted the 47 channels I had that were empty of program data. |
| [00:20:00] | Cardoe: | what parts of the world? |
| [00:20:00] | laga: | Cardoe: germany for me. |
| [00:21:00] | Juski: | europe only, I think, Cardoe |
| [00:21:00] | NightMonkey: | GreyFoxx: Here it is: |

| [00:21:00] | Cardoe: | ah |
| [00:21:00] | NightMonkey: | (sorry, that's the testing one, good to try first) |
| [00:22:00] | NightMonkey: | GreyFoxx: And here's the one that needs a backup ;) : |
| [00:22:00] | NightMonkey: | delete channel, program from channel natural left JOIN program where program.title IS NULL; |
| [00:22:00] | Cardoe: | why a natural left join? |

| [00:23:00] | NightMonkey: | Cardoe: Channel will have some record of a chanid, while program will not, if there's no data for that channel. |
| [00:23:00] | NightMonkey: | So, I'm looking for people with zap2it deleted channels cruft to test and make sure I've not missed some edge case. |
| [00:24:00] | Cardoe: | really doesn't seem like their can be an edge case |
| [00:24:00] | NightMonkey: | Cardoe: I hope not. I trust myself, but verify... ;) |
| [00:24:00] | Cardoe: | well a left join should give you program.title IS NULL |
| [00:25:00] | NightMonkey: | Cardoe: Right. |
| [00:25:00] | NightMonkey: | Cardoe: That's what I hoped someone would say... ;) |
| [00:26:00] | NightMonkey: | Cardoe: Thanks. Now, I just hope someone with cruft will test, too. |
| [00:27:00] | NightMonkey: | Cardoe: I hand counted, with MythWeb, and used an equivalent SELECT to craft it, so I'm pretty confident. |
| [00:27:00] | GreyFoxx: | Natur: I |
| [00:27:00] | NightMonkey: | GreyFoxx: Do you have pure "NO DATA" channels in your DB? |
| [00:27:00] | GreyFoxx: | NightMonkey: I don't have channels of "no data". I have time periods, almost all in the 8pm-12am timeframe |
| [00:28:00] | GreyFoxx: | no |
| [00:28:00] | NightMonkey: | GreyFoxx: Hmm... Was datadirect updates logging a success? |
| [00:29:00] | GreyFoxx: | Do you mean did I have any errors on a mythfilldatabase? If so then the answer is no |
| [00:30:00] | NightMonkey: | GreyFoxx: Huh. Any mysql errors? In /var/log/mysql/ ? |
| [00:30:00] | GreyFoxx: | Nope |

| [00:34:00] | GreyFoxx: | but it makes sense |
| [00:34:00] | NightMonkey: | Cardoe: Oh, and I'm using "natural" because that's a shortcut to avert the need for a USING clause. |
| [00:34:00] | NightMonkey: | GreyFoxx: What's the nearest-in-time example? |
| [00:35:00] | GreyFoxx: | Thursday |
| [00:35:00] | ** NightMonkey is going SQL-KrAzY today ** | |
| [00:35:00] | NightMonkey: | GreyFoxx: OK, I'll check. One sec. |
| [00:36:00] | GreyFoxx: | What EXACTLY are you looking for or looking to accomplish ? |
| [00:36:00] | NightMonkey: | GreyFoxx: What channel? |
| [00:36:00] | rpete_ (n=rpete@pool-70-22-219-40.bos.east.verizon.net) has joined #mythtv-users | |
| [00:36:00] | NightMonkey: | GreyFoxx: Uh, to help you figure out why you're having this problem? |
| [00:36:00] | GreyFoxx: | I know exactly why this is happenning |
| [00:36:00] | NightMonkey: | GreyFoxx: Oh. |
| [00:36:00] | Juski: | anyone seen the xbox media center screen calibration stuff? would it be worth looking at trying to code something similar in mythtv to make setting up screen sizes easier (bearing in mind the changes that are coming to the UI at some point in the future) ? |
| [00:37:00] | NightMonkey: | GreyFoxx: Why? |
| [00:38:00] | briand: | Juski: I have not seen the xbox media center screen calibration stuff, but a UI to help set up screen size(s) in MythTV would be nice... |
| [00:38:00] | GreyFoxx: | NightMonkey: When you first download the listings from zap2it you get 12–14 days of listings. And quite often zap2it doesn't have the updated programs listings for that far in the future. Then everyday when you do an update it updates today, tomorrow, and grabs the next furthers 12–14th day in the future. So the day that WAS day 12 and had a no data doesn't get updated until it "becomes" tomorrow |
| [00:38:00] | Led-Hed: | with mdadm what is the superblock used for? |
| [00:39:00] | Juski: | basically, briand... it has 2 triangles for setting up the corners of the screen, which you move with the joystick. you can also set subtitle positions etc that way |
| [00:39:00] | Juski: | funnily enough, the dbox also has them |
| [00:39:00] | briand: | Juski: that would be a tremendous help... |
| [00:40:00] | NightMonkey: | GreyFoxx: I wonder why everyone isn't having this, then? Are you going to purge your program DB, and re-load? |
| [00:40:00] | Juski: | only when the corners are set would mythtv then need to re-load & scale everything :) |
| [00:40:00] | briand: | the main menus of Myth look fine on my television (PVR-350, using it's TV-Out), but most of the setup screens hide the bottom row of buttons ([back] [forward] [cancel] [accept], or whatever they are...) |
| [00:40:00] | GreyFoxx: | NightMonkey: zap2it might very well have data for that area that far into advance. And most people just don't know it's a problem |
| [00:41:00] | briand: | ...i usually have to go through those screens several times, pressing the 'down arrow' a specific number of times before hitting 'ok' on the remote — then go back to see if the changes "took" or not. |
| [00:41:00] | Juski: | yeh I know that feeling.. that's an hour of your life you're never gonna see again |
| [00:41:00] | GreyFoxx: | You COULD make mythfilldatabase attempt to fill in the missing hours as well as download the normal days it currently gets, but it doesn't really bother or affect me that much |
| [00:42:00] | NightMonkey: | GreyFoxx: OK, thought you were trying to troubleshoot it when you mentioned it. |
| [00:42:00] | Juski: | it's alright for these people with plasmas & projectors... |
| [00:42:00] | GreyFoxx: | if it did I would just do a mythfilldatabase --refresh-all to wipe and fill in all of the data |
| [00:42:00] | NightMonkey: | GreyFoxx: Yep. |
| [00:42:00] | briand: | Juski: heh.. indeed. and, I've tried playing with 'windowing' Myth... but then it just chops it off at the same point where I run out of television screen — no scroll bars, or shrinking of the page or anything. (ie: it's a near-useless 'feature' for me) |
| [00:42:00] | GreyFoxx: | No, I mentioned it cause you asked if anyone wsa seeing "No Data" in their listings :) |
| [00:43:00] | splat1 is now known as splAt1 | |
| [00:43:00] | NightMonkey: | GreyFoxx: I should have been more specific. I am looking for people who have deleted channels over 13 days ago from their zap2it channel list. |
| [00:44:00] | Juski: | I guess if I was to do it, it might be possible to bring it in even with the UI changes |
| [00:44:00] | NightMonkey: | GreyFoxx: So their current list shows "NO DATA". |
| [00:44:00] | GreyFoxx: | That I don't have :) |
| [00:44:00] | NightMonkey: | GreyFoxx: Sorry for the kuk-up... |

| [00:45:00] | GreyFoxx: | no worries :) |
| [00:45:00] | hari_seldon99: | Hi |
| [00:45:00] | briand: | I've yet to (successfully) set up/use MythMusic or MythVideo |
| [00:45:00] | hari_seldon99: | I just installed knoppmyth on a dedicated PVR box |

| [00:45:00] | hari_seldon99: | It works, except for the Hauppauge grey remote |
| [00:46:00] | briand: | hari_seldon99: set up lirc? |

| [00:48:00] | hari_seldon99: | I'm logged in to my PVR remotely using ssh, do I have to export the display to the tv or anything before I run irw? |
| [00:48:00] | briand: | irw should 'catch' the IR signals from the remote and report them on-screen. |
| [00:48:00] | briand: | so, you'd need to be in the room with the machine |
| [00:48:00] | Darby_: | hmmmm.... well you would need to run irw and then point the remote at the receiver that's plugged into the pvr, hit buttons and see if anything happens |
| [00:49:00] | hari_seldon99: | ok, hang on. I'll goto my PVR and so it |

| [00:52:00] | jd86: | so something more is going on.. |
| [00:52:00] | jd86: | Juski: maybe would that make the card not turn on the line out? |

| [00:54:00] | hari_seldon99: | I ran irw, nothing |
| [00:54:00] | Juski: | otherwise it's a case of googling and trying different ones |
| [00:54:00] | jd86: | i have the card in front of me, does it say on there somewhere? |
| [00:55:00] | jd86: | its made in singapore ;) |
| [00:56:00] | jd86: | and it says FI1236 thats tuner=2 i believe |
| [00:56:00] | briand: | hari_seldon99: okay. just checking: you did plug the IR receiver into the IR port on the hauppauge card, right? and you were pointing the remote at it? |

| [00:57:00] | Dark`-`: | so i got my tv tuner today, and found out i might have wasted $8 on the components i bought for the high-power lirc remote because my card came with an IR blaster :\ |
| [00:57:00] | Juski: | jd86.. so set bttv to use tuner type 2 & see how it goes |
| [00:57:00] | Dark`-`: | anyone know if the IR blaster that plugs into the WinTV pci cards is supported by some type of driver with linux? |
| [00:57:00] | jd86: | yea it auto detected 19 |
| [00:58:00] | GreyFoxx: | Dark`-`: What kind of WinTV card (I suspect the answer is yes btw) |

| [00:58:00] | Juski: | jd86: I used to mess around with btwincap.. that never used to be able to autodetect properly either.. but that's more down to the cards |
| [00:58:00] | GreyFoxx: | I'd be suprised if lirc didn't support it |
| [00:58:00] | Dark`-`: | damn |
| [00:59:00] | Dark`-`: | wasted money then lol |

| [01:01:00] | jd86: | and it locks up when trying to change channels |
| [01:01:00] | briand: | hari_seldon99: did you set up a lircrc file? |
| [01:01:00] | Dark`-`: | the only thing is, do you think lirc supports it even though it connects to the PCI card itself |
| [01:01:00] | Dark`-`: | theres like some port on the card that the transmitter and receiver plug into |
| [01:01:00] | GreyFoxx: | Dark`-`: It probably does support it |
| [01:02:00] | Dark`-`: | ok |

| [01:08:00] | hari_seldon99: | briand: so if I just overwrite my file w yours and restart the lirc daemons, that'll do it? |
| [01:08:00] | jd86: | Juski: if this works, then my other wintv card might work too.. i'll be pimping like 3 cards :) |
| [01:09:00] | briand: | hari_seldon99: I don't know.. you could try that. I would rename your file to something else.. lircrc.old, etc.. rather than deleting it. |
| [01:09:00] | Juski: | jd86.. 2 bttv cards in a machine might be kinda tricky |
| [01:09:00] | briand: | hari_seldon99: y'know... just in case my file makes it worse on your machine. |
| [01:09:00] | briand: | :) |
| [01:09:00] | jd86: | Juski: yea.. i can afford another machine to be able to have more then one card... but just for knowing.. whats the tricky part? |
| [01:09:00] | hari_seldon99: | briand: right |
| [01:10:00] | hari_seldon99: | ok, lemme try that for a sec |
| [01:10:00] | Juski: | getting 2 soundcards working & figuring out which one is which |
| [01:10:00] | jd86: | tv audio doesn't work still |
| [01:11:00] | GreyFoxx: | Unless you can get the btaudio driver going and pull the audio data right from the card rather than through the sound card |
| [01:11:00] | jd86: | GreyFoxx: i can't even get the damned line out working |

| [01:12:00] | GreyFoxx: | My BTTV cards have been sitting on ashelf for almost 2 years now |
| [01:12:00] | jd86: | i just want the line out to work.. i dont know why it wouldn't just always be on.. |

| [01:15:00] | Kabutor: | I have a BT848, did I get a improvement if I switch to a bt878? Im getting some "frames lost" (like slow motion for a couple of seconds), Im testing rtjpeg ATM.. but the card is making me wonder.. |
| [01:16:00] | kormoc: | Kabutor, short answer, not really, no |
| [01:16:00] | kormoc: | Kabutor, longer answer, just get a pvr 150 and be happy :P |
| [01:17:00] | hari_seldon99: | briand: I rebooted the pvr. I put your lirc config file in ~/.mythtv/lircrc & still nothing |
| [01:17:00] | Kabutor: | how much is one of those? |

| [01:19:00] | Kabutor: | I even have a Nexus-S DVB here because it didnt fit in the box |
| [01:19:00] | hari_seldon99: | briand: yes |
| [01:19:00] | jd86: | why is this being such a gooakelrha;l |
| [01:19:00] | briand: | hari_seldon99: mythfrontend NOT running, with irw running? |
| [01:19:00] | hari_seldon99: | here is my output of /var/lo/messages:http://pastebin.com/398091 |
| [01:20:00] | hari_seldon99: | mythfrontend is NOT presently running. Shall I run both mythfrontend AND irw simultaneously? |
| [01:20:00] | Goose-Npa: | can you batch encode with avidemux? |
| [01:20:00] | Juski: | it's just not my night tonight.. dbox goes on ebay this weekend |
| [01:20:00] | briand: | put a space between 'messages:' and 'http' so my irc client will pick up the URL |
| [01:21:00] | briand: | no, don't run them both simultanously... mythfrontend will show on the screen, most likely. umm.. well, did you try just firing up mythfrontend and seeing if it worked there now? |
| [01:23:00] | hari_seldon99: | briand: I ran both irw & mythfrontend at once. Nothing. I ran mythfrontend after terminating irw, nothing |
| [01:23:00] | hari_seldon99: | as you can see from my /var/log/messages, it detects my remote |
| [01:23:00] | briand: | which buttons were you trying? the arrow keys should navigate thru the menus. and, as i said, i didn't see your /var/log/messages because you occluded the URL from my IRC client. |
| [01:24:00] | jd86: | Juski: do you have any idea why on both of these cards the sound line out doesnt worK/ i doubt its coincidence that i got two cards with broken audio outs... and what possible driver stuff could be messing with audio out? (i'm asking you because you've anserd alot of questions relating to this) |
| [01:24:00] | hari_seldon99: | briand: sorry, my /var/log/messages is here:http://pastebin.com/398091 |
| [01:25:00] | hari_seldon99: | I pressed every button on the remote, nothing |
| [01:25:00] | briand: | okay, now put a space between "here:" and "http" or just paste the URL without commentary |
| [01:26:00] | hari_seldon99: | http://pastebin.com/398091 |
| [01:26:00] | briand: | in other words, "here:http:// ..." is not a valid URL, and is not recognized as a URL by my software. ;) |
| [01:26:00] | hari_seldon99: | sorry abt that man |
| [01:26:00] | Juski: | jd86.. if it's happenning on both cards I suspect it's more likely a driver issue |
| [01:27:00] | Juski: | just out of interest, jd86... what video decoder device is on the bttv card? |
| [01:27:00] | jd86: | Juski: i totally removed ivtv, including the drivers it stuck in /extra/ in modules, i dont know what there is left to do.. i'm going to continue searching google but i think ive seen most of the web with the word bttv in it |
| [01:27:00] | jd86: | like what chip? |
| [01:27:00] | Juski: | yep |
| [01:27:00] | jd86: | 878 |
| [01:27:00] | jd86: | which i'm supposed to use the bttv driver for right? |
| [01:27:00] | jd86: | people talk about this cx88 driver.. what is it? |
| [01:27:00] | Juski: | can't imagine that conflicting with ivtv |
| [01:28:00] | briand: | hari_seldon99: hmm. that's nearly exactly what i get here with "dmesg | grep irc" |
| [01:28:00] | jd86: | Juski: well ivtv had a bunch of modified tuner.ko and stuff |
| [01:28:00] | Juski: | jd86.. cx88 is for newer cards |
| [01:28:00] | jd86: | alright |
| [01:28:00] | jd86: | i'm just looking for an answer |
| [01:28:00] | Juski: | though it might be backwards compatible.. I dunno |
| [01:28:00] | Krazylegz: | I <3 MythTV. |
| [01:28:00] | Juski: | I H8 my dbox |

| [01:53:00] | PaulWay[w]: | As briand says, if you know which table it's updating, have a look at the contents for a show that you've got commflagged and then work out what it means... |

| [01:54:00] | Led-Hed: | how would I delete a volume lable with e2label? |
| [01:54:00] | PaulWay[w]: | Why do you want to do that, Led-Hed? |
| [01:55:00] | Led-Hed: | because I changed the label from 1 drive to another and now both have the same label.. I need to delete one of them |
| [01:55:00] | overridex: | is there a hot key to slow video down or go frame-by-frame while watching a recording? |
| [01:56:00] | mewyn: | the table in question is filemarkup, i'm getting numbers that don't line up with either seconds or frames in the mark column, and i have no clue what the offset is reporting |
| [01:56:00] | briand: | hari_seldon99: hmm.. i thought that, maybe, the IR plug wasn't getting fully seated, maybe. I know on my machine, the socket is perilously close to the corner of the slot opening, which could cause the plug not to fully seat in the socket... but it looks like it seats okay on your system... |
| [01:56:00] | PaulWay[w]: | mewyn: do the contents look similar to the contents of the recordedmarkup table? |
| [01:57:00] | PaulWay[w]: | Led-Hed: Try just changing it to '' |
| [01:57:00] | hari_seldon99: | is there anything wrong with my connections? I have the coax cable where it's supposed to be, my DIN connector goes to my RF Modulator, and the rightmost port is where the IR receiver is |
| [01:57:00] | Led-Hed: | PaulWay[w], It then labels it '' |

| [01:58:00] | briand: | nope.. the connections are correct, as far as I can see... |

| [01:58:00] | hari_seldon99: | briand: sounds good |
| [01:59:00] | Led-Hed: | PaulWay[w], well, I guess so, but I wanted to delete it. That may work for the time being... |
| [01:59:00] | PaulWay[w]: | mewyn: if you're not using mythtv as a pvr, you're missing out :-) |
| [01:59:00] | PaulWay[w]: | Led-Hed: I don't know if there is a way. |
| [02:01:00] | mewyn: | PaulWay[w]: currently, i have a hacked directivo (likely a bad thing in here ;) ) and i have a sync script that grabs all my shows off my tivo onto my server. from there, i'd like to make dvds of shows, but all automated |
| [02:01:00] | Nwallins: | i am getting a 401 unauthorized when wget attempts to download from zap2it (running mythfilldatabase) I have filled in the correct acct / pw |

| [02:40:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | and if it hangs that long it sounds like it's not using the seektable. |
| [02:40:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | is it mounted on the same directory on the frontend and backend? |
| [02:41:00] | JohnP789: | Captain_Murdoch, No, the backend is running on the same machine as the big disk and the smb server. My frontend is on another machine with the rec directory mounted via smb. |

| [02:42:00] | JohnP789: | (I have the PVR-500MCE.) |
| [02:42:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | right, so is the recordings directory mounted in the same location on both the backend and frontend. (ie, are both /mnt/video or something or is one /mnt/video and the other /opt/video) |
| [02:43:00] | JohnP789: | One is /home/mythtv/myth/rec (backend) and one is /media/myth (frontend). |

| [02:49:00] | JohnP789: | (I'll experiment, just wondering if you have any more tips.) |
| [02:49:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | as long as you're on the same filesystem, mv-ing a file is as fast as renaming one. |
| [02:50:00] | JohnP789: | Is there a conventional place for the recordings in a networked MythTV setup? /var/cache/video or something? |
| [02:51:00] | JohnP789: | You mentioned /mnt/video I guess. |
| [02:51:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | doesn't matter, Myth doesn't care where you put them. |

| [02:52:00] | JohnP789: | Thanks! |
| [02:52:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | /mnt/video was just an example. I use /usr2/video/mythtv/recordings for my production setup and /usr2/video/mythtv/dev for my dev boxes, both on NFS. Have some sample recordings for testing commercial flagging under /usr2/video/mythtv/samples and link then in under the dev directory for testing. |
| [02:52:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | just create a link on the frontend and you can try it now. |

| [02:57:00] | JohnP789: | L2 cache must be nice. |
| [02:57:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | gotcha, I misread that line. if you run mythfrontend with the "-v network" option, you can see it streaming the video data from the backend. If you have your network share mounted properly you won't see all that streaming data, just communication as you move around menus, the guide, etc.. |

| [03:10:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | Myth is not really usable without Xv support, the only reason video even displays without it is for testing and making screenshots. Sounds like something isn't configured right with your video card in X or else you're using and old unsupported card. Try googling for things like "xv support linux" and other words like the name of the video card you have. |
| [03:10:00] | Captain_Murdoch: | hadees: doesn't matter where it's run as long as it can talk to the database. |

| [04:52:00] | PaulWay[w]: | sw_bluntman_: you've got another controller? |
| [04:53:00] | PaulWay[w]: | Have you included its definition in the /etc/lirc.conf (I think) file? |
| [04:54:00] | sw_bluntman_: | I have the infrared remote control that comes with the Leadtek, and another controller that came with my Directiv H10. There doesn't seem to be a definition for the H10. That is what I'm trying to create. I've also tried to input using several other infrared remotes. None of them seem to output anything to irw except the leadtek one |
| [04:55:00] | sw_bluntman_: | *directiv = DirecTv |

| [05:02:00] | PaulWay[w]: | I have a serial IrDA connection on the motherboard, a plug-in thing on the AVerMedia card, and a USB dongle I got with the Twinhan card; none of them work successfully yet. |
| [05:03:00] | PaulWay[w]: | Like you, I need to find the #lirc-users channel... |

| [05:04:00] | PaulWay[w]: | I don't hold much hope... |
| [05:04:00] | sw_bluntman_: | Yeah. I was looking for that one. I wonder if anyone has been successful in using the IrDA connectoin on the MB. I have one too, but don't know what parts to use to build the correct reciever. I am currently leaning toward building a serial reciever using rat shack parts |
| [05:04:00] | emes: | any plans to support transcoding to h.264? |
| [05:04:00] | PaulWay[w]: | I got one from a swap meet; you can't get them anywhere else, it seems. |
| [05:04:00] | sw_bluntman_: | Now it's you and four. Maybe there will be someone with answers and not just questions. |
| [05:05:00] | PaulWay[w]: | emes: I want to see transcoding to OGG first... :-) |
| [05:05:00] | PaulWay[w]: | If only the freenode channel search options were working... |
| [05:06:00] | sw_bluntman_: | Just reposted my q in that channel |

| [05:13:00] | PaulWay[w]: | banyan: what distro? FC4? |
| [05:13:00] | PaulWay[w]: | livna or atrpms, from memory. |
| [05:13:00] | banyan: | ya! |
| [05:14:00] | banyan: | Pretty sure livna doesn't have mpth. |

| [05:14:00] | banyan: | I gave my computer a migraine by accidentally updating from atrpms after doing an fc3 to fc4 upgrade. |

| [05:15:00] | PaulWay[w]: | What's wrong with atrpms? |
| [05:16:00] | PaulWay[w]: | I learnt the hard way to not use the development and testing repos... |
| [05:16:00] | banyan: | I had so many nonstandard packages that the fc4 upgrade pretty much just left me at fc3 packagewise. |

| [05:46:00] | Dagmar: | Does your MySQL permissions allow the frontend to connect to it? |
| [05:46:00] | Dagmar: | (I'm not 100% sure but I think the frontend talks to the DB server directly) |
| [05:46:00] | klax3: | mythtv version 0.18.1 |
| [05:46:00] | klax3: | i think so |
| [05:46:00] | Dagmar: | Ah... that would be something to check on then |
| [05:46:00] | klax3: | yea I'm pretty sure i did hold let me me see what I did |
| [05:46:00] | Dagmar: | MySQL permissions are a little odd |
| [05:47:00] | Dagmar: | I was a little startled to see that you can actually restrict access to tables for a given user differently depending on where they connect from |
| [05:48:00] | klax3: | mysql> grant all on mythconverg.* to mythtv@"%" identified by "mythtv"; |
| [05:48:00] | klax3: | mysql> grant all on mythconverg.* to mythtv@"%" identified by "mythtv"; |
| [05:48:00] | klax3: | I did a 'grant allow all on mythconverg.* to mythtv@"%" identified by "mythtv"' |
| [05:48:00] | Dagmar: | So if like, your permissions allow connecting from localhost and you don't have any other rights given, then you can't connect to it from elsewhere |
| [05:48:00] | klax3: | while I logged into the dapabase |
| [05:48:00] | Dagmar: | Is that on Windows? |
| [05:48:00] | klax3: | no Gentoo |
| [05:48:00] | Dagmar: | I got the impression from the docs that Unix doesn't recognize the % construct |
| [05:48:00] | klax3: | my user is root for the database, I don't have a mythtv user |
| [05:49:00] | klax3: | ahhhhh should I replace the % with the IP of my server? |
| [05:49:00] | Dagmar: | Ugh. You probably shouldn't make the mythtv user the root database user |
| [05:49:00] | klax3: | yea I knew it |

| [05:53:00] | Dagmar: | Not a bad idea actually |
| [05:53:00] | klax3: | yea, I wish I had cat5 running throughout the house |
| [05:53:00] | klax3: | the server is connected to ethernet though |
| [05:53:00] | Dagmar: | ...although you could do that with a Samba share, I don't think you can play DVDs over a samba share without some really interesting hacker |
| [05:53:00] | Dagmar: | s/hacker/hackery |
| [05:54:00] | klax3: | haha VLC would do that nice |
| [05:54:00] | Dagmar: | klax3: Cat5 cable is relatively cheap, if you already have the crimper |
| [05:54:00] | klax3: | yea I'm going to invest in one soon |
| [05:54:00] | Dagmar: | Places like Home Depot sell it in 1000ft spools for about $35 |
| [05:54:00] | klax3: | damn |
| [05:54:00] | Dagmar: | Yeah, considering you can spend that much at CompUSA for two 25ft cables. |
| [05:55:00] | klax3: | yea seriously |
| [05:55:00] | Dagmar: | It does get a little irritating after a while fiddling with all the little tiny wires when you're doing say, nine or ten cables at a time |
| [05:56:00] | klax3: | yeaa i can see, do you know how to add users in mysql? |
| [05:56:00] | Dagmar: | Yep. According to http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-6.html#ss6.2 you need to grant access to the remote systems |
| [05:57:00] | Dagmar: | One moment, I'm still digging. I suck with mysql and had to look this up yesterday so I know I can find it again |
| [05:57:00] | klax3: | haha ok thanks a lot i appreciate it |
| [05:58:00] | Dagmar: | Hmm... according to the HOWTO, grant all on mythconverg.* to mythtv@"%" identified by "mythtv"; shoudl have worked as a "no security" option. Lemme check the link tot he mysql site |
| [05:58:00] | klax3: | yea I tried that |
| [05:59:00] | Dagmar: | AH, here's the thing that showed me how to look at what I had se tup |

| [06:04:00] | Dagmar: | select host, user from mysql.user; shows me the account just fine... and I even have a % in there. |
| [06:05:00] | klax3: | hmmm |
| [06:05:00] | Dagmar: | I may have to chalk up thinking poorly of the % construct to the fact that most of my setup was done in two nearly back-to-back 14 hour hacking sessions |
| [06:05:00] | Dagmar: | I had some issues (it wouldn't play a damn thing) with the video browser so I blew away the system again and built every little piece from scratch |

| [06:15:00] | klax3: | yea |
| [06:16:00] | klax3: | how do you make another user I want to make a mythtv user |
| [06:16:00] | Dagmar: | THe little stub script that comes with the mythtv source doesn't set it up like that. It makes a mythtv user |
| [06:16:00] | klax3: | i built it from portage |
| [06:16:00] | klax3: | in gentoo |
| [06:16:00] | klax3: | not from sources and the command line |
| [06:17:00] | Dagmar: | Oh. that's right in the howto then |
| [06:17:00] | klax3: | okay, thanks ill check that out |
| [06:17:00] | Dagmar: | See if this file exists and then try `mysql < /usr/share/mythtv/database/mc.sql` |
| [06:17:00] | Dagmar: | It basically pipes the commands right into the client. |
| [06:18:00] | klax3: | that file does exist |
| [06:18:00] | Dagmar: | I had to change the command to mysql -u root -p because I have a password set on the root account |
| [06:18:00] | klax3: | yea thats how I get into mysql |
| [06:18:00] | Dagmar: | Whatever password the mythtv account might have is entirely it's call. I know I didn't set one |
| [06:19:00] | Dagmar: | Slackware's build of mysql is a little gnomic, but it seems quite happy using the my-tiny configuration file that Pat supplies |
| [06:19:00] | klax3: | i dont have a mythtv user |
| [06:19:00] | Dagmar: | You should after you've run that command... |
| [06:20:00] | klax3: | ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO) |
| [06:21:00] | Dagmar: | add the -p to the mysql command and it (should) will ask for the password |
| [06:21:00] | klax3: | k |
| [06:22:00] | klax3: | what password shoudl I put in? |
| [06:22:00] | Dagmar: | Or you can just run mysql manuall;y and the copy and paste the contents of the file from another xterm |
| [06:22:00] | Dagmar: | klax3: Umm... the password you set on the mysql root account. |
| [06:22:00] | klax3: | okay, didnt know if I was setting a new password |
| [06:22:00] | Dagmar: | Note, it's confusing at first, but the mysql root account is *not* the same as the system root acount |
| [06:22:00] | klax3: | ahhh |
| [06:22:00] | klax3: | and I got a message stating it cant create a database because I already ahve one |
| [06:22:00] | klax3: | which I do |
| [06:22:00] | Dagmar: | That's good |
| [06:23:00] | Dagmar: | select host, user from mysql.user; will show you what accounts have been created |
| [06:24:00] | Dagmar: | I've got a '%' in the output of that over here staring me right in the face, so I don't know what the deal is with the mysql docs |
| [06:24:00] | Cardoe: | Nwallins_: contacting FedEx |
| [06:24:00] | klax3: | ahhhhh okay I see it |
| [06:24:00] | Dagmar: | It's kinda pissing me off that I don't know mysql well enough already to figure this out easily. Their docs could really use some elaboration on this subject. |

| [06:27:00] | banyan: | so here's a weird thing I can't explain. Recently did a bunch of upgrades, now my pvr350 plays back at a lower volume than it used to do. Could be because the audio got encoded at a lower volume, could be because the card's decoding it at a lower volume. Any ideas? |

| [06:47:00] | Dark`-`: | it came with the card and plugs into a port on the PCI card, but i have no idea how to get that thing working |
| [06:47:00] | Dark`-`: | i have lirc |
| [06:47:00] | Dark`-`: | but i dunno if it can recognize this blaster since its not serial or usb |
| [06:57:00] | Dark`-`: | how do u get lirc-i2c module? |
| [06:58:00] | Dark`-`: | i dont see any option to get that in the kernel config and doesn't seem to be there after emerging lirc on gentoo |
| [07:00:00] | Cardoe: | Dark`-`: echo "LIRC_OPTS='--with-driver=hauppauge'" >> /etc/make.conf |

| [07:00:00] | Dark`-`: | thank you very much :) |
| [07:00:00] | Cardoe: | Dark`-`: need to read. |
| [07:01:00] | Cardoe: | it's documented in the ebuild |
| [07:01:00] | Cardoe: | the ebuild prints out that info when you start to emerge |
| [07:01:00] | Dark`-`: | been reading their howto setup myth |
| [07:01:00] | Cardoe: | the MythTV docs have that. |
| [07:01:00] | Dark`-`: | and he kinda went half ass right here |
| [07:01:00] | Cardoe: | the WIKI page has that |
| [07:01:00] | Cardoe: | and my little broken doc has that |
| [07:01:00] | Dagmar: | Cardoe: There's a wiki for myth? |
| [07:01:00] | Cardoe: | Myth has their own wiki yes. |
| [07:01:00] | Dagmar: | Yay. |
| [07:02:00] | Cardoe: | but I was refering to www.gentoo-wiki.com (not official Gentoo) |
| [07:02:00] | Dagmar: | I will have to dig it up and see if they've got a little warning about the expected failure of mythfilldatabase |
| [07:02:00] | Dark`-`: | yea Cardoe has a howto on there |
| [07:02:00] | Dagmar: | That threw me for a loop |
| [07:02:00] | Cardoe: | That content is not mine. |
| [07:02:00] | Cardoe: | Some of it is. |
| [07:02:00] | Dark`-`: | worked perfectly until now, i'd go to all the manuals but i wanna sleep hehe, im sure ill be helping other people in here soon enough |
| [07:02:00] | Cardoe: | I'm ripping the crap out as we speak |
| [07:03:00] | Dark`-`: | well up until then i havent had a prob |
| [07:03:00] | Dark`-`: | and prob wont have any other |
| [07:03:00] | Cardoe: | ok |
| [07:03:00] | Dagmar: | You might want to mention the thing that the HOWTO doesn't then. |
| [07:04:00] | Cardoe: | ? |
| [07:04:00] | Cardoe: | Dagmar: ? |
| [07:04:00] | Dark`-`: | its just so u compile the module for lirc-i2c |
| [07:04:00] | Dagmar: | If you're following the howto to the letter (like I was) the first time it tells you to run mythfillbackend, it's going to visibly fail at the end because you've not been told to start the backend yet |
| [07:04:00] | Dark`-`: | thats the only thing i was missing |
| [07:04:00] | Cardoe: | Dagmar: the whole thing is being ripped apart right now |
| [07:04:00] | Dark`-`: | oh well im not following to the letter i guess lol, skipped a few parts here and there like that |
| [07:04:00] | Cardoe: | because everytime I edited it |
| [07:05:00] | Dagmar: | It's expected and fine that it will fail like that, but unless you know it's okay, seeing the error message will send you on a big double-checking spree |
| [07:05:00] | Cardoe: | morons would edit it |
| [07:05:00] | Dark`-`: | the important stuff is there though |
| [07:05:00] | Dark`-`: | lol |
| [07:05:00] | Cardoe: | yeah I've fixed bits and pieces already |
| [07:05:00] | Cardoe: | just so it's not useless while I rewrite it |
| [07:06:00] | Dark`-`: | well if i find anything else noteworthy ill let ya know |
| [07:06:00] | Dark`-`: | and ill find the answer first hopefully ;) |

| [08:11:00] | PaulWay[w]: | Here in Canberra we have an ISP that's using fibre to distribute VDSL to customers, including multicast streams of all the public TV channels (and some more). It'd be great to be able to get MythTV to record from these. |

| [09:50:00] | ** Chipdancer wonders again how to properly do mpeg2-mpeg2 ad removal and reassembly ** | |

| [09:51:00] | Chipdancer: | yep, basically without actually reencoding.. just cutting |
| [09:51:00] | jnc: | i've got a bad capture input and it's not necessarily a full black frame, some parts are a little grey |
| [09:52:00] | Krazylegz: | Chipdancer: You probably want to do this from Myth, don't you. |
| [09:52:00] | Chipdancer: | by preference, however, if there's no option.. then I'm happy to use command line.. (I'm a unix geek.. as all myth users should be) |

| [10:43:00] | laga: | maybe it's running with --skip-networking |
| [10:43:00] | eiggirC: | laga: yep – its running – the only skip param is --skip-locking |
| [10:43:00] | eiggirC: | mysqld is listening on port 3306, but telnet mythbox 3306 gives Trying 10.28.1.4... |
| [10:44:00] | eiggirC: | telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused |
| [10:45:00] | laga: | eiggirC: ok, what distro? |
| [10:46:00] | Smurf2: | what version of mysql are you using the newer version disables external networking because of the root accounthaving no password |
| [10:46:00] | eiggirC: | laga: debian, unstable. |
| [10:46:00] | eiggirC: | mysql Ver 14.7 Distrib 4.1.14, for pc-linux-gnu (i486) using readline 5.0 |
| [10:47:00] | eiggirC: | I feel that mysql is right, but something else is stopping it... checking out hosts.deny now |
| [10:47:00] | laga: | eiggirC: check /etc/mysql/my.cnf for bind-addres |
| [10:47:00] | Smurf2: | yeah I think that is what you need to do sorry I can't remember the file the |
| [10:47:00] | Smurf2: | though |
| [10:47:00] | Smurf2: | it's in something like /etc/conf.d or something like that |
| [10:48:00] | eiggirC: | bind-address = 127.0.0.1 10.28.1.4 |
| [10:48:00] | eiggirC: | I bet that needs a comma or something |
| [10:48:00] | laga: | hehe |
| [10:49:00] | laga: | try removing the 127.0.0.1 one |
| [10:49:00] | eiggirC: | doing it now.... |
| [10:49:00] | eiggirC: | *dance* |
| [10:49:00] | eiggirC: | laga++ you rock dude :) |
| [10:49:00] | eiggirC: | Smurf2 you too :) |
| [10:49:00] | laga: | eiggirC: ;) |
| [10:50:00] | eiggirC: | I did have to put old_passwords = 1 |
| [10:50:00] | eiggirC: | in as well, or downgrde to mysql 4.0.x (which was too hard) |
| [10:50:00] | laga: | eiggirC: regarding the old_passwords – you could just change the passwords. it's documented somewhere on the mysql website |
| [10:51:00] | eiggirC: | laga: yeah – but I'll likely blow this whole machine away if I can.... its a P3 866 with a crap frame grabber. |
| [10:51:00] | eiggirC: | laga: this is all testing to see how it goes |
| [10:51:00] | laga: | eiggirC: hehe. i used to have a athlon 700 with a frame grabber. it totally sucked :) |
| [10:52:00] | eiggirC: | 480x480 is too much for this machine. What truely sucks is that its the best box I have. |
| [10:52:00] | laga: | eiggirC: ouch. did you try rtjpeg? |
| [10:52:00] | eiggirC: | the next one down is a celeron 1200 and a P3 700 |
| [10:52:00] | eiggirC: | laga: yeah thats what its on now |
| [10:52:00] | eiggirC: | should the record size be a square? |
| [10:53:00] | eiggirC: | or is 320x240 okay? |
| [10:53:00] | laga: | square? uh, no, not necessarily. i record in 640x480 or 720x576, iirc |
| [10:53:00] | laga: | 320x240 is fine as well, i think |
| [10:53:00] | eiggirC: | 120x120 :\ |
| [10:53:00] | laga: | but mind you, it's sometimes possible that your capture card won't accept some resolutions |
| [10:54:00] | eiggirC: | point. |
| [10:56:00] | laga: | eiggirC: hey, i believe you could get a nice mythtv machine for $300-$400, probably. nforce 2 board with a nice cheap duron (sempron) or an athlon xp, 256–512mb ddr-ram and a pvr 150 or something. |
| [10:56:00] | laga: | but don't hold me responsible if it doesn't work, i'Ve never used such a setup before |
| [10:57:00] | eiggirC: | laga: welcome to the world of "Not an american" I paid $232 for a PVR-150 alone |
| [10:58:00] | eiggirC: | thats New Zealand dollars |
| [10:58:00] | eiggirC: | which is about $160-$170 USD |
| [10:58:00] | laga: | ouch that sucks |
| [10:58:00] | eiggirC: | yeah well... gotta be something wrong with everywhere :) |
| [10:58:00] | laga: | eiggirC: sorry, i thought you were located in the USA. many mythtv users are :) |
| [10:59:00] | laga: | eiggirC: but hey, your p3 866 should work fine with your pvr 150. |
| [10:59:00] | eiggirC: | I'd be $1000 NZ or ~$700 US for a box here |
| [10:59:00] | laga: | ouch |
| [10:59:00] | eiggirC: | yeah it would, but the BLOODY WIFE nicked it |
| [10:59:00] | eiggirC: | :) |
| [10:59:00] | laga: | i paid like 300–400 euro for mine |
| [10:59:00] | eiggirC: | oops – sorry for calling you a merkin :) |
| [10:59:00] | laga: | eiggirC: hehe. well, will she be able to tell the difference if you gave her the frame grabber? |
| [11:00:00] | eiggirC: | laga: yeah she would know... I married a geekchick |
| [11:00:00] | laga: | eiggirC: darn, that sucks. well, if she's a geek she will understand your needs. |
| [11:00:00] | eiggirC: | how accurate is the clock on your local TV schedules? |
| [11:00:00] | eiggirC: | heheheh – wink |
| [11:01:00] | laga: | you can call me a kraut instead, if you want to ;)) |
| [11:01:00] | laga: | eiggirC: not very accurate, unfortunately. but i record 5 extra minutes before and after every show so it works |
| [11:02:00] | eiggirC: | fair enough |
| [11:02:00] | eiggirC: | laga: as long as you're not a sour kraut. |
| [11:02:00] | eiggirC: | :) |
| [11:02:00] | laga: | eiggirC: no,not a grumpy german. |
| [11:03:00] | laga: | (the GF tends to pull that joke on me) |
| [11:03:00] | eiggirC: | heh |
| [11:03:00] | eiggirC: | hey – how well does commercial flagging work? |
| [11:04:00] | eiggirC: | and which detection method works best? |
| [11:04:00] | laga: | it works quite nicely for me. it's not accurate all the time – i set it to warn me before a commercial and then i just hit my "skip commercials" button. i usually ahve to watch a few seconds of the previews then but it doesn't bother me much |
| [11:05:00] | laga: | well, i use "all". sounds umm complete ;) |
| [11:05:00] | diamon: | Some shows work perfectly for me, while others don't. Most work very nicely for commercial skipping. |
| [11:05:00] | eiggirC: | fair enough |
| [11:06:00] | eiggirC: | mythweather needs to be installed on the front-end box right? |
| [11:06:00] | laga: | eiggirC: all plugins run on the frontend |
| [11:06:00] | eiggirC: | gotcha – thanks |
| [11:06:00] | eiggirC: | I know I'm asking some dumb questions here |
| [11:07:00] | laga: | eiggirC: just watch out for beirdo and his trout |
| [11:08:00] | eiggirC: | I have a fishing licence and plenty of chips... I can deal with trout :) |
| [11:08:00] | laga: | hehe |
| [11:08:00] | laga: | .oO(..round 1: fight!...) |
| [11:10:00] | eiggirC: | and at the same time I'm setting up an old tape changer on my main box |
| [11:10:00] | laga: | for backup purposes? |
| [11:10:00] | eiggirC: | four x 2–5Gb tapes |
| [11:10:00] | eiggirC: | yeah |
| [11:10:00] | laga: | nice |

| [11:12:00] | laga: | hehe |
| [11:12:00] | laga: | my backups consist of sftp'ing some stuff on different boxes. |
| [11:12:00] | laga: | i believe i could play with rsync to automate it |
| [11:13:00] | eiggirC: | I do that at work, but at home I've not got enough places... and in NZ internet access costs a fair bit, so I can't just sync with a machine at work. |
| [11:13:00] | eiggirC: | we have data caps |
| [11:14:00] | laga: | data caps? what's that? |
| [11:14:00] | eiggirC: | on my plan I can download up to 10 Gb a calendar month |
| [11:14:00] | laga: | sorry i'm not all too familar with all this spiffy professional stuff |
| [11:14:00] | eiggirC: | any more, and I pay 20c per Mb over that |
| [11:14:00] | eiggirC: | so 11 Gb would cost me an additional $200 NZ for going over cap |
| [11:15:00] | laga: | ouch that's a lot. |
| [11:15:00] | laga: | so cap -> capacity? |
| [11:15:00] | eiggirC: | yeah – one of the downsides of living on a couple islands with very limited net connections |
| [11:16:00] | eiggirC: | not quite – cap means limit, or upper amount |
| [11:16:00] | eiggirC: | if something is capped at X then it shouldn't go past that value |
| [11:16:00] | laga: | good, thanks |
| [11:16:00] | eiggirC: | you might "cap" a pipe end to stop water coming out |
| [11:16:00] | eiggirC: | its a bit slangy though |

| [11:18:00] | eiggirC: | cable is generally good... none of the rain fade issues that wireless/satellite has |

| [16:40:00] | GreyFoxx: | I believe it holds the seek table for recordings, pointers to the start/end of flagged commericals and the current cutlist |

| [16:42:00] | UhDollar: | hmm, is it possible that this casuses issues with issues with ffwd/rewind and jumping after a video has been transcoded by an external program? |
| [16:43:00] | UhDollar: | sorry it's early..can't type :) |
| [16:43:00] | GreyFoxx: | UhDollar: It definately would if the seektable is not rebuilt since all of the data would no longer be accurate |
| [16:43:00] | GreyFoxx: | Are you transcoding and then moving it back into the same location? |

| [16:46:00] | UhDollar: | yeah, but i have to transcode by using a program other than mythtranscode |
| [16:47:00] | UhDollar: | i'm using mencoder to set hdtv firewire streams down from 1080i to dvd quality |
| [16:47:00] | GreyFoxx: | and then overwriting the original with the new copy so that it still is accessible in "Watch Recordings" ? |
| [16:48:00] | UhDollar: | they play back fine unless you try to do something like ffwd,rewind..and there are serious issues with setting the bookmark position on exit..etc |
| [16:48:00] | UhDollar: | yep.. |
| [16:48:00] | GreyFoxx: | Your problem is thathe seektable is no longer valid and that is what is being used for skippingh forward/back/etc |
| [16:48:00] | GreyFoxx: | you need to rebuild the seektables for the newly transcoded files |
| [16:48:00] | UhDollar: | is there a way to do that? |
| [16:49:00] | GreyFoxx: | mythcommflag --rebuild -f filename I think |
| [16:49:00] | UhDollar: | hmm never thought that would be in the commflag program.. |
| [16:50:00] | UhDollar: | thought it might be something in the internal recorder, but i'll look into that and see what heppens... |
| [16:50:00] | UhDollar: | happens even |
| [16:50:00] | Wonker: | On that topic: ... I have been using mpeg2desc and mplex to generate multiplexed MPEG2's that are good for other apps |
| [16:50:00] | Wonker: | anyone know a simple way to use the cut list using this method? Don't want to transcode ... |
| [16:50:00] | ftwig: | Lightnin: still here. moved on a bit. I am now building against linuxtv-1.0.1 and using gcc-3.4 rather than 4. but now getting error after 10 mins cmpiling – http://pastebin.ca/25963 |

| [16:50:00] | GreyFoxx: | I don't actually use a cut list for anything. Any commercial cutting I've done has been manual |

| [16:51:00] | Wonker: | But sometimes I am in a rush and would put up with the built-in |
| [16:51:00] | GreyFoxx: | I don't think myth has any concept of a cutlist based on pid as well as the recording |

| [16:52:00] | Wonker: | I had the perception that the nuv file contained the cutlist. I am betting this is wrong? |
| [16:52:00] | GreyFoxx: | The cutlist is in the database |
| [16:52:00] | Wonker: | ah, well then, that is a whole different ballgame |
| [16:52:00] | Wonker: | GreyFoxx, thanks, a little info goes a long ways |
| [16:53:00] | GreyFoxx: | And if it's a mpeg2 file then the nuv isn't really a "nuv". It's a mpg with a .nuv filename |
| [16:53:00] | Wonker: | currently I encode to MPEG2, transcode to DV, edit in IMovie, export to others... |
| [16:53:00] | GreyFoxx: | And in svn it's named .mpg |
| [16:53:00] | GreyFoxx: | heh |
| [16:53:00] | Wonker: | transcoding to DV takes a while and a tad bit of diskspace :) |
| [16:54:00] | Wonker: | is it an entirely legal MPEG2 file? |
| [16:54:00] | GreyFoxx: | All of my stuff is either broadcast in mpeg2 (dvb) or hardware encoded before it reaches myth so I never deal with anything but mpeg files |

| [16:55:00] | Wonker: | k, maybe I will try renaming and skipping the mplex step |
| [16:55:00] | GreyFoxx: | all of the compression is happening on the card and it "should" be spitting out a compliant mpeg file. Myth just rreads the data and writes it to the drive unmolested |
| [16:55:00] | Wonker: | assuming my transcoder will be able to handle it (It should it can handle just about anything) |
| [16:56:00] | Wonker: | that would save quite a bit of fussing actually |
| [16:56:00] | Wonker: | and it is the fussing I am trying to get down |
| [16:56:00] | GreyFoxx: | My last round of transcoding has all be done on a window laptop using avisynth+dgindex+virtualdub |
| [16:56:00] | Wonker: | next step would be to auto-build an iMovie file from the DV segments ... it has to be split into 2GB segments |
| [16:57:00] | GreyFoxx: | I've yet to find a *nix group of apps that really made me happy or performed as well |
| [16:57:00] | Wonker: | I am using the iMovie route 'cause it lets me easily generate a variety of transcodes as well as DVD |
| [16:57:00] | Beirdo: | we look forward to your new tools, GreyFoxx :) |
| [16:57:00] | Beirdo: | hehe |
| [16:57:00] | UhDollar: | many thanks greyfoxx, that did the trick, rebuilding the seektable works.. |
| [16:57:00] | Wonker: | my g/f is away with limited cable and no PVR, so I am making her DVD's weekly :) |
| [16:57:00] | GreyFoxx: | Only burning I would do to DVD is a data disk with xvids on it :) |
| [16:57:00] | GreyFoxx: | UhDollar: Cool |
| [16:58:00] | GreyFoxx: | Beirdo: Not likely. I'm happy with this setup now :) |

| [16:58:00] | Beirdo: | I understand, dude |
| [16:58:00] | GreyFoxx: | No, it's about priortizing my time :) I'd rather spend it with my Daughter :) |
| [16:59:00] | Beirdo: | but of course |
| [16:59:00] | Wonker: | I think one killer add-on to myth would be select a bunch of programs, hit burn and you get a menued (simple of course) dvd with the content recompressed to fit |
| [17:00:00] | Wonker: | looked into it, it seems like a hellish bit of work as the tools on linux are largely arcane and poorly documented |
| [17:00:00] | GreyFoxx: | There are a few things out there like that |
| [17:00:00] | GreyFoxx: | mythburn and some others |

| [17:01:00] | GreyFoxx: | I just don't personally ever burn to a "regular" dvd. All of my players are divx/xvid capable and a standard dvd is a waste of space heh |
| [17:01:00] | Wonker: | ah, I wish I was there. |
| [17:02:00] | Wonker: | mind you ... I might be able to pay off a new divx capable player for her just in DVD's at this rate |
| [17:02:00] | GreyFoxx: | My player was $90CDN when I bought it |
| [17:02:00] | Wonker: | Might even get motivated to get transcoding working on my linux boxen :) |
| [17:02:00] | GreyFoxx: | And holds ~13 or so episodes per disk |
| [17:02:00] | Wonker: | (or windows box, which is by far my fastest but least used box...) |
| [17:02:00] | GreyFoxx: | plays every file/format I've tossed at it expect for a single indeo file I've had for about 13 years |
| [17:03:00] | ** Wonker is now musing DVD players.... ** | |
| [17:03:00] | GreyFoxx: | If that player had ethernet like some of momitsu(spl?) I'd be using that as a frontend heh |
| [17:04:00] | Wonker: | You have been using avisynth+dgindex+virtualdub on Win? |
| [17:04:00] | Wonker: | My win box has nothing to do 99% of the time .... |
| [17:04:00] | Wonker: | So it would be ideal as a transcode box |
| [17:04:00] | GreyFoxx: | Wonker: Yup |
| [17:05:00] | Wonker: | thanks, man, I have a project for the weekend |
| [17:05:00] | Wonker: | she could always watch the stuff on her iBook in any case |
| [17:06:00] | Wonker: | and I wouldn't have to tether my Powerbook to external drives to do it... |
| [17:06:00] | Wonker: | She might end up with a new DVD player :_ |
| [17:06:00] | GreyFoxx: | hehe |
| [17:08:00] | Wonker: | so ... anyone know the quick and easy way to delay a filesystem mount? (short of mucking with an init.d script) |
| [17:09:00] | Wonker: | my new SATA card driver doesn't get loaded in time to mount my myth-lib volume group, causing a manual start up issue.... |

| [17:09:00] | GreyFoxx: | And you can't just recompile the kernel to have the driver built in rather than loaded ? |
| [17:10:00] | GreyFoxx: | If not then an init script is likely your best option |
| [17:11:00] | Wonker: | Currently I am running a stock kernel; if I go to a custom one, I will give in to the urge to optimize and then leave out some driver or another, and then have to do it all over again... |

| [17:12:00] | Wonker: | actually, this is my first stock kernel in many years, and I have been luxuriating in it |
| [17:12:00] | GreyFoxx: | But an init script would do what you need |
| [17:12:00] | Wonker: | I think my first stock on ever |
| [17:12:00] | Wonker: | I guess it is a minor bit of hassle (the init script) |
| [17:13:00] | malaTG: | Does anyone know if there is any good guide out there on how to transcode nuv mpeg2 files to xvid avi automagic when I have marked the commercials in a recordig? |
| [17:13:00] | GreyFoxx: | init scripts are your friend |
| [17:13:00] | Wonker: | I think I am getting lazy in my old age... |
| [17:13:00] | Wonker: | I only recently even went to 2.6... |
| [17:14:00] | Wonker: | malaTG, nuvexport (google it) |
| [17:14:00] | Wonker: | malaTG, works for lots of people |
| [17:14:00] | malaTG: | ok thx |
| [17:14:00] | Wonker: | can't remember if it cuts commercials on xvid though... |
| [17:14:00] | Wonker: | I think so |
| [17:15:00] | GreyFoxx: | It gives you the option of using the cutlist or not |
| [17:15:00] | Wonker: | if you have an very recent version of ffmpeg, can cause a little grief |
| [17:15:00] | malaTG: | no I have figured out on how to transcode my edited(without commercial) mpeg2 to mpeg4 nuv files however i want avi not nuv files |
| [17:16:00] | Wonker: | depends on your skill set |
| [17:16:00] | Wonker: | nuvexport will generate a wide variety of formats |
| [17:16:00] | Wonker: | including avi files |
| [17:16:00] | Wonker: | it does export *to* nuv files, it exports *from* them |

| [22:24:00] | rapha: | Beirdo: is there at least anything I can do to diagnose this? |
| [22:24:00] | Hoxzer: | Juski: no |
| [22:24:00] | Hoxzer: | I dont think |
| [22:24:00] | Beirdo: | that would depend on the setup, etc |
| [22:24:00] | Hoxzer: | HTV is my cable provider I gues |
| [22:24:00] | Beirdo: | way too many variables to give a standard answer |
| [22:24:00] | Hoxzer: | but now I need to test my hardware |
| [22:24:00] | rapha: | Beirdo: I'd be grateful for _any_ piece of help that you might have |
| [22:25:00] | Juski: | Hoxzer.. without using scan and czap, you're up a certain creek without a certain paddle for the time being |
| [22:25:00] | Beirdo: | you'll need to tell us what type of capture card, etc before we can have much of an idea at all |
| [22:25:00] | Hoxzer: | well its DVB-c and analog? |
| [22:26:00] | rapha: | Beirdo: Okay, that's no prob. The capture card is an analog Bt878 made by Hauppauge |

| [22:26:00] | MrSpiffy: | moo |
| [22:26:00] | rapha: | Beirdo: what other info need I look up? |
| [22:26:00] | Beirdo: | rapha: OK, how do you have the sound capturing? through a soundcard, or using btaudio? |
| [22:26:00] | MrSpiffy: | question: can myth ripping set to just rip to a VOB and not trarnscode? |
| [22:27:00] | Hoxzer: | Juski: when I do "femon" it outputs something |
| [22:27:00] | laga: | MrSpiffy: yep, do a "perfect" rip |
| [22:27:00] | rapha: | Beirdo: absolutely no idea. Usually, when listening tv with xawtv or so, the sound goes out of the tv cards line-out and into the sound cards line-in. |
| [22:27:00] | Beirdo: | OK |
| [22:27:00] | Beirdo: | good enough |
| [22:27:00] | rapha: | kay |
| [22:27:00] | Beirdo: | you will likely need to tweak your mixer settings |
| [22:27:00] | MrSpiffy: | laga "perfect" rip is just a rip to vob? no transcode? |
| [22:27:00] | laga: | MrSpiffy: i think so. |
| [22:28:00] | Beirdo: | xawtv doesn't actually capture the sound, it just lets it go out the soundcard directly |
| [22:28:00] | MrSpiffy: | laga, one sec – will try that |
| [22:28:00] | Beirdo: | mythtv captures the line in, then plays it back |
| [22:28:00] | Beirdo: | it's fairly well documented, I think |
| [22:28:00] | rapha: | Hmm |
| [22:28:00] | rapha: | kay |
| [22:29:00] | rapha: | Beirdo: but so you say when everything is turned up a 100% I should be able to record sound with MythTV? |
| [22:29:00] | Juski: | Hoxzer.. you're gonna need to know whether or not the cards can actually pick up the streams from your cable provider.. and you need some basic info to get mythtv to scan for channels.. info which scan can provide |
| [22:29:00] | Beirdo: | heheh |
| [22:29:00] | Beirdo: | read the mythtv documentation |
| [22:29:00] | Beirdo: | :) |
| [22:29:00] | rapha: | Mkay |
| [22:29:00] | Beirdo: | you need to set up the capture source |
| [22:29:00] | rapha: | Thx |
| [22:29:00] | Beirdo: | in ALSA I dunno how to do it |
| [22:30:00] | Pete__: | so, does anyone know anything about the stopping recordings? |
| [22:30:00] | Beirdo: | if you are using OSS sound drivers, it's simple |
| [22:30:00] | Beirdo: | I don't use ALSA so someone else would have to help if you use it |
| [22:30:00] | rapha: | Beirdo: OSS emulation here |
| [22:30:00] | rapha: | Somehow it'll work |
| [22:30:00] | Filip^ (n=Filip@sterrenbos.demon.nl) Quit (Remote closed the connection) | |
| [22:30:00] | Beirdo: | that's still ALSA, I think (mixer-wise) |

| [22:30:00] | rapha: | Yeah, well, you get an OSS mixer and an ALSA mixer |
| [22:31:00] | Beirdo: | I'm sure SOMEone here knows their way around that part... |
| [22:31:00] | Beirdo: | I use PVR-250s now too, so it's not even an issue anymore |
| [22:31:00] | Beirdo: | basically you need to allow capture from the line-in, and mute it from going back out to line-out directly |
| [22:32:00] | Beirdo: | and then set your volumes around 80–90%, not 100% (keep it from clipping) |
| [22:32:00] | rapha: | Beirdo: just looking at the server log which says "Please go into the TV Settings, Recording Profiles and setup the four 'Software Encoders' profiles." and then "NVR: Error, unknown audio codec", sounds like it could be related. But "TV Settings" doesn't seem to be a part of mythtv-setup... |
| [22:32:00] | Beirdo: | it's in the frontend settings pages |
| [22:32:00] | Beirdo: | you'll need to do that too :) |
| [22:34:00] | Hoxzer: | Juski: yes... so how do check that |
| [22:34:00] | MrSpiffy: | laga, I think that's it |
| [22:35:00] | laga: | MrSpiffy: nice ;) |
| [22:35:00] | Juski: | Hoxzer.. I think you're gonna have to resort to looking for a howto or a wiki |
| [22:36:00] | Hoxzer: | or maybe I just ask it from you? |
| [22:36:00] | MrSpiffy: | laga, one of these days I have to recompile mplayer to use xvmc |
| [22:36:00] | Hoxzer: | I'm sure its like "write this command and see" |
| [22:37:00] | Juski: | Hoxzer: you could try ./scan dvb-c/fi-3ktv |
| [22:37:00] | Juski: | then if that doesn't work, try ./scan fi-vaasa-oncable |
| [22:38:00] | Hoxzer: | it says that device is bussy |
| [22:39:00] | Juski: | http://hyvatti.iki.fi/~jaakko/dvb/ |
| [22:39:00] | Beirdo: | then stop the backend first maybe |
| [22:40:00] | Juski: | Hoxzer... I know this seems like a long way round, but if you have problems in mythtv later how will you know which is wrongly configured? |
| [22:41:00] | Juski: | good thing is I accidentally found the dbox2 linux forum :) |

| [23:20:00] | Led-Hed: | mmurphy, do you have the extra audio buffering enabled in mythtv? |

| [23:37:00] | mmurphy: | i wonder is cache will work |
| [23:37:00] | Led-Hed: | I also have better luck with Xine and DVD audio tracks. mplayer would sometimes detect the wrong language.... |
| [23:37:00] | Juski: | xine is good for deinterlacing too |
| [23:38:00] | Led-Hed: | I've never used it for de-interlacing. all my dvd's play progressive/480p |

| [23:39:00] | mmurphy: | i would be happy if it would sync the audio and video .. |
| [23:39:00] | mmurphy: | -nobps was a tad better .. not still not watchable |

| [23:46:00] | xris: | sync issues are usually all about the player. |
| [23:46:00] | xris: | different players in linux (or windows) will be different. |
| [23:52:00] | Led-Hed: | xris, I'm excited.. I built a Mini-ITX mail server with SATA & Software RAID1... |
| [23:52:00] | Led-Hed: | used 2 60g SATA notebook drives.... |
| [23:52:00] | xris: | cool |
| [23:53:00] | xris: | we keep meaning to benchmark software raid1 vs hardware.... |
| [23:53:00] | xris: | I'm upset at my sata drive at the moment... it's half as fast as kormoc's pata drive. |
| [23:53:00] | Led-Hed: | The only benchmark tool I've seen for linux is bonnie. and it confuses me. |
| [23:54:00] | Led-Hed: | xris, I finally got my 9500 a 64bit slot.... ;) |
| [23:54:00] | xris: | well, pretty easy to compare reads/writes in a simple time test |
| [23:54:00] | xris: | we're just curious which is faster, since cpu's these days can be better than the processor on many raid cards. |
| [23:54:00] | xris: | maybe not for raid5, but for raid1 it might be better to have software. |
| [23:55:00] | NightMonkey (n=NightMon@pdpc/supporter/sustaining/NightMonkey) has joined #mythtv-users | |
| [23:55:00] | Led-Hed: | the reason I try to stick to Hardware RAID is the ease of use. Typically the RAID BIOS is easier to manage than software RAID. for me anyhow. |
| [23:56:00] | jnc: | it's terribly expensive |
| [23:56:00] | Led-Hed: | not if you count my time. |
| [23:56:00] | jnc: | a 3ware card was like 20 dollars usd |
| [23:56:00] | jnc: | i sold it for 200 |
| [23:56:00] | Led-Hed: | my 9500 was close to 600 USD |
| [23:56:00] | jnc: | mmhm |
| [23:57:00] | Led-Hed: | its an 8 port SATA RAID controller |
| [23:57:00] | jnc: | well i wanted the 150usd profit more than i wanted to sit down and slave through converting my software md raid1 array to a 3ware setup |
| [23:57:00] | jnc: | neato |
| [23:57:00] | xris: | Led-Hed: yes. and raid5 will almost always be better... but we are curious how it works out for raid1 |
| [23:57:00] | jnc: | hardware 3ware sata raid makes sense i think |
| [23:57:00] | jnc: | if you got the loot |
| [23:59:00] | Led-Hed: | xris, I just setup my first software mirror, and it wasn't too bad. I doubt that there will be much CPU overhead except durring a rebuild... |
| [23:59:00] | xris: | Led-Hed: yes. |
| [23:59:00] | xris: | and there's something about the kernel having better ability to manage simultaneous writes to multiple drives |
| [23:59:00] | Led-Hed: | and even then I never saw the rebuild use more than 1.5% |
| [23:59:00] | xris: | I'm talking speed, not cpu overhead |
