[00:01:00] scottder: "DO NOT start using svn like the
[00:01:00] scottder: genius who jumped the gun suggests."
[00:01:00] scottder: :)
[00:02:00] Chutt: i originally used something slightly stronger than 'genius'
[00:02:00] ShockValue: anyone have any lxmsuite theme screenshots? i can only find references to them on their website.. but their website is down
[00:02:00] scottder: :)
[00:02:00] Juski: GreyFoxx: I was referring to the webpage remote contro thingy ;-)
[00:02:00] scottder: Chutt: hmmm fucktard :)
[00:02:00] timm is now known as bleh
[00:02:00] xpis: lxmsuite is dead
[00:02:00] ShockValue: yes, and the theme is now public
[00:02:00] GreyFoxx: oh, heh Mostly been playing in the background stuff and making notes on stuff I'd wanna add to the telnet controls
[00:02:00] Juski: ShockValue: screw screenshots – download em & take them for a spin. them is nice
[00:02:00] bleh is now known as asdfasdf
[00:02:00] GreyFoxx: and playing with some javascript

[00:03:00] Juski: I won't be using em but they weren't a wasted download, any of them
[00:03:00] GreyFoxx: They look pretty nice, I was looking around in them last night
[00:03:00] ShockValue: currently using hte dark grey widescreen one.. its pretty nice
[00:04:00] Juski: it's not gonna be as dark for much longer
[00:04:00] GreyFoxx: Going with a lighter look?
[00:04:00] Juski: more highlights... shiny
[00:04:00] GreyFoxx: sweey
[00:04:00] ShockValue: Oh, are you the author of that theme? Let me say thanks for your work then :)
[00:04:00] GreyFoxx: little shiny chrome thrown in ?
[00:05:00] ShockValue: ooo shiney.. i like shiney...
[00:05:00] Juski: now I can do brushed aluminium...
[00:05:00] ** ShockValue stares at the nickle on his desk **
[00:05:00] Juski: jackdaw-wide?
[00:05:00] ShockValue: sorta like dark+crystal ?
[00:05:00] Juski: crystal things are yummy IMHO
[00:06:00] Juski: been trying to figure a way to get the mythmusic screen to look more like a tangible thing

[00:06:00] scottder: The Dark Crystal....so sort of a muppet look :)
[00:07:00] Juski: lol
[00:07:00] ShockValue: in another world... in another time..
[00:07:00] Juski: theming for 0.20 is going to be a whole new bag 'o' tricks I imagine
[00:08:00] Juski: sorry.. 0.19 isn't even out yet & I'm talking about 0.20
[00:08:00] Juski: little bit excited about opengl things

[00:21:00] scottder: xris: whats new?
[00:22:00] Juski: scottder: read some mailing list archives ;)
[00:24:00] scottder: Bah :)
[00:26:00] ShockValue: umm ok.. so i installed this new theme.. and it doesnt have a "setup" menu item.. how do i select a differetn theme now? :)
[00:27:00] Juski: page down
[00:27:00] ShockValue: hrm
[00:28:00] Juski: horizontal stuff doesn't work too well in the menus
[00:28:00] ShockValue: thanks
[00:29:00] Juski: ooo drop everything... listened to a couple of old tracks from 1995.. now I want to do a mix
[00:29:00] ShockValue: yeah, i dont like horizontal.. i like using the "right" button for selections more than hitting OK
[00:30:00] Juski: I like the idea of having an array of menu items, shuffling them around to bring the one you want to the front though
[00:30:00] Juski: without 'whoosh' sound fx ;)
[00:32:00] ShockValue: i kinda like audio feedback, as long as it's subtle
[00:32:00] xpis: " ....::::OWNZ BY V10 D3N14L H4CK3RS::::...."
[00:33:00] ShockValue: well, back to grey-wide. those lxmsuite ones didnt do much for me
[00:33:00] xpis: Who did that?
[00:33:00] scottder: I'd say the "D3N14L H4CK3RS"
[00:33:00] xpis: And they now appear to have taken the entire server offline.
[00:33:00] xpis: (killed apache)
[00:33:00] ShockValue: which, wha?
[00:33:00] Chutt: err, i took it offline :p
[00:34:00] xpis: Chutt: who are the D3N14L H4CK3RS, and why do they want to screw the 0.19 release?
[00:34:00] Chutt: i had admin.php +w while i was adding the new story
[00:34:00] Chutt: of course, that's been a grand total of 15 minutes
[00:34:00] ShockValue: wow.. little parasites move damn fast
[00:35:00] xpis: It must have been an automated script attacking every php nuke site constantly
[00:36:00] xpis: So.. did the "D3N14l H4CK3RS" do anything that can't be undone in 15 minutes?
[00:36:00] Chutt: of course not.
[00:36:00] Chutt: all they had access to was phpnuke :p
[00:36:00] xpis: They could have deleted the site content

[00:55:00] beau_: hey, just wanted to let anyone in here know this
[00:56:00] beau_: if u are using fc4, and ur audio has been playing up, turn off the KDE sound system completely, and compile mythtv with NO OSS support
[00:57:00] beau_: then, get a newer alsa driver, for some reason the 1.0.10 never worked for me, but the rc2 release of 1.0.11 worked for me
[00:57:00] beau_: i think it was that version
[00:57:00] beau_: anyway, thats all i know a fair few people had this problem, so just letting everyone know what worked for me

[01:37:00] GreyFoxx: I've go 3 backends ( master, slave and dev slave), and 4 frontends, with 1 TB of storage

[01:38:00] ** laga gets one while they're still hot **
[01:39:00] ** laga dances **
[01:39:00] Chutt: GreyFoxx, 40 so far.
[01:39:00] GreyFoxx: heh
[01:39:00] Kelerion: am running svn from a couple of days ago and all is fine here.. so not gonna bother upgrading at the moment
[01:39:00] GreyFoxx: Kelerion: Same here
[01:39:00] laga: make that 41 in a few seconds :)
[01:39:00] Chutt: Cardoe, shouldn't be long for ebuilds, right?
[01:39:00] laga: i'm running SVN as well, but hey – it's 0.19. :)
[01:39:00] GreyFoxx: Chutt: Care to update the topic in here? Still says 0.18.1
[01:40:00] GreyFoxx: laga: hehe
[01:40:00] Chutt: that requires me opping myself
[01:40:00] GreyFoxx: there have been like 3 updates since my last svn up, heh
[01:40:00] GreyFoxx: Chutt: Then give me ops and I'll do it ;)

[01:41:00] dtm: that or he's the court jester
[01:41:00] Kelerion: what I *do* have to figure out though is why adding my 2nd and 3rd backend screwed up recording.. all my records are jumping video/popping audio.. I figure it's a hard drive problem but I can't figure out where to start solving it
[01:41:00] dtm: do we have a dumbass quota or what

[01:46:00] xpis: Well, the tarballs are downloading at 400KBps..
[01:47:00] Juski: doing a mix to celebrate
[01:47:00] Z-Morek: downloading the svn now....
[01:47:00] xpis: Chutt: why don't you write the slashdot story, so it will read as you want it to?
[01:47:00] Cardoe: Chutt: and uploading the tarballs to the Gentoo mirrors
[01:48:00] Cardoe: and I'm gonna let it settle on those mirrors first too

[01:51:00] djperegrine: Z-Morek... why/
[01:51:00] Chutt: however
[01:51:00] djperegrine: ?
[01:51:00] Z-Morek: why svn?
[01:51:00] Chutt: i have serious doubts about its ability to scale
[01:52:00] Z-Morek: okay so I have lame installed via apt
[01:52:00] Z-Morek: and the configure script doesn't recognize it
[01:53:00] Z-Morek: and I'm a noob
[01:53:00] laga: Chutt: well, might be worth a try :) IIRC, it looked spiffy :)
[01:53:00] Chutt: looked fairly similar to the existing site, which is what i wanted
[01:54:00] ** laga obviously doesn't RC then **
[01:54:00] laga: hum. public svn access kinda spoils the joy of a new release :/
[01:54:00] scottder: So don't do SVN :)
[01:55:00] laga: scottder: what fun would that be? :)
[01:55:00] laga: well, i think i'm gonna stay stable for some time now :) till i see a new feature :/
[01:57:00] laga: well, let's hope that marillat will have 0.19 packaged soon. i don't feel like packaging it on my own :)

[02:00:00] Z-Morek: am I a noob for using root over ssh instead of a user and then superuser when needed?

[02:01:00] dtm: Z-Morek: yeah.
[02:01:00] Z-Morek: I thought so
[02:01:00] dtm: Z-Morek: ideally you'd have the desired command in the form of a shell script on the target system, and you'd configure /etc/sudoers to allow your user to execute that one command as uid0 if needed.
[02:01:00] dtm: or as whatever user.
[02:02:00] dtm: that's how i do my backups for example
[02:02:00] dtm: and disable root ssh entirely
[02:02:00] dtm: and change its public port ^_^
[02:02:00] xpis: I'm submitting a story to slashdot. Are the tarballs on any mirrors I should link to, instead of the download page?
[02:02:00] Chutt: don't link to the download page
[02:03:00] Chutt: and why would slashdot care?
[02:03:00] Chutt: do you see every release of every opensource software project getting a story?
[02:03:00] djperegrine: Chutt, mythtv is a big deal :P
[02:03:00] Chutt: don't link to the wiki, don't link to the download page
[02:04:00] gardengnome: link to www.mythtv.org/mc/mythtv-0.19.tar.bz2 instead ;)
[02:04:00] Chutt: err, no
[02:04:00] Chutt: if you do that, i'll change the urls
[02:04:00] gardengnome: i was just joking :)
[02:04:00] Chutt: suure
[02:04:00] Z-Morek: I dugg to the news story on the homepage
[02:05:00] xpis: Chutt: I thought you said the wiki was cached
[02:05:00] ** scottder is looking forward to OSD working with xvmc **
[02:05:00] Chutt: it is
[02:05:00] Chutt: but it's still dumb to link to it from slashdot
[02:05:00] xpis: Chutt: If I don't submit a story, someone will submit a worse one.
[02:05:00] Chutt: directly, that is.
[02:05:00] xpis: Chutt: could you cache the release notes somewhere?
[02:05:00] Chutt: well, from what you're saying, not likely :p
[02:05:00] Z-Morek: most people that read slashdot or digg click the first page
[02:05:00] Z-Morek: and stop there
[02:06:00] Chutt: why on earth would you need to link directly to the release notes?
[02:06:00] xpis: ok, I guess I'll take out all links except for the main page.
[02:06:00] Z-Morek: and anihilate the server

[02:16:00] Z-Morek: I'm migrating from rpms to self-compile
[02:16:00] Juski: been trying to find a sound sample for this mix... google is getting bogged down in scripted responses
[02:16:00] Z-Morek: so how do I upgrade after this?
[02:16:00] Z-Morek: it's definitely not just apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
[02:16:00] chuckyp: Juski, can't you just tell me the key?
[02:16:00] GreyFoxx: upgrade after installing by source ?
[02:16:00] Z-Morek: rtfm... gotcha
[02:17:00] Juski: chuckyp: reading the manual will teach you more than just one key ;-)
[02:17:00] GreyFoxx: no, I was asking if that's what you mean
[02:17:00] GreyFoxx: are you asking "if I install from source, how do I upgrade later"
[02:17:00] Z-Morek: yeah
[02:17:00] Z-Morek: and I assume I'm just not reading something
[02:17:00] GreyFoxx: download the new source, compile and run
[02:17:00] chuckyp: Juski, I know how to do everything else I need to. I JUST NEED TO CHANGE THE DAMN TUNNER FROM WITHIN LIVE TV SO I CAN GET OFF OF tunner 1
[02:17:00] Juski: so press Y already
[02:17:00] GreyFoxx: chuckyp: I just did tell you
[02:17:00] chuckyp: Juski, but if you don't want ot tell me thats fine
[02:18:00] Juski: c changes inputs on tuners iirc
[02:18:00] gardengnome: 7kick chuckyp
[02:18:00] chuckyp: Thank you
[02:18:00] GreyFoxx: right, I had them reversed
[02:18:00] chuckyp: Was that so hard
[02:18:00] GreyFoxx: chuckyp: LiveTV, according to the change log should not require you to manually change tuners
[02:18:00] Z-Morek: if everone asks every little question
[02:18:00] GreyFoxx: chuckyp: Apparently for you it was
[02:18:00] Juski: can I be ruder than I've ever been? I'm tempted
[02:18:00] Z-Morek: it gets bad
[02:18:00] gardengnome: Juski: show us.
[02:18:00] gardengnome: :)
[02:19:00] Z-Morek: which is why I feel guilty asking anything :-(
[02:19:00] chuckyp: GreyFoxx, its a complicated problem
[02:19:00] GreyFoxx: cause in the time it took for you to go on in here you could have looked at the documentation on the website or read keys.txt from the source
[02:19:00] gardengnome: chuckyp: it's in a file called 'keys.txt' (or keys_de.txt if you fancy reading it in german)
[02:20:00] Z-Morek: will I need to run mythtvsetup after compiling and installing? or will the settings still be saved somewhere
[02:20:00] GreyFoxx: Z-Morek: Your settings are stored in a mysql database
[02:20:00] Z-Morek: which is why I backed it up... just in case
[02:20:00] GreyFoxx: you wont need to rerun mythtv-setup
[02:21:00] Z-Morek: k
[02:22:00] chuckyp: gardengnome: I'm still looking through the wiki for it
[02:22:00] gardengnome: chuckyp: read keys.txt.

[02:23:00] Juski: night gardengnome
[02:23:00] chuckyp: ty GreyFoxx: I still have trouble with the way some of these wikis are written
[02:23:00] xpis: Unless someone has any objections, I'm posting this to slashdot:
[02:24:00] xpis: MythTV 0.19 has been <A HREF="http://mythtv.org/">released</A>. New features include closed captioning support (not on all cards), a much improved MythWeb web-based interface, the ability to save the live TV buffer as recordings, a telnet interface for the MythTV frontend, and saving recordings from hardware MPEG2 encoders as standard mpeg files. A large number of bugs have been fixed,
[02:24:00] Juski: who even takes any notice of slashdot these days?
[02:24:00] xpis: resulting in increased support for devices and greater overall stability. See the <A HREF="http://www.mythtv.org.nyud.net:8090/wiki/inde . . . ;>release notes</A> for a list of all changes.
[02:24:00] Juski: knee jerk reactions called 'news' :-P
[02:24:00] Chutt: that's not even true
[02:24:00] xpis: Note that I'm not linking directly to the wiki.
[02:24:00] Chutt: closed captioning has been around for ages
[02:24:00] xpis: well, it hasn't worked.
[02:24:00] Chutt: only on some cards.
[02:25:00] xpis: It hasn't worked on my standard framegrabber with a /dev/vbi device.
[02:25:00] Chutt: worked on mine.
[02:25:00] Z-Morek: mmm coral cache
[02:25:00] Chutt: and that code certainly wasn't changed in 0.19
[02:25:00] Juski: recordings from hardware mpeg2 encoders have always been standard mpeg files too
[02:25:00] Juski: just with a different extension ;)
[02:25:00] GreyFoxx: they just have .mpg filenames now :)
[02:25:00] Chutt: that too.
[02:25:00] xpis: Then why is closed captioning mentioned in teh release notes?
[02:25:00] chuckyp: I'm so about to give up
[02:25:00] Chutt: because it support was added for the pvr-250/350.
[02:26:00] GreyFoxx: chuckyp: What exactly is the problem you are having ?
[02:26:00] Chutt: see, should've just left it :p
[02:26:00] Chutt: that's a not very good slashdot story
[02:26:00] chuckyp: Alright here's whats going on I get everything working with pvr-150 including the remote controlling my directv last night went to mythweb clicked on program listings. It blew up the backend.
[02:26:00] xpis: Ok, then should I say "closed captioning support on more cards"?
[02:26:00] Juski: mythtv ate my MCE system alive... that's more like a slashdot story
[02:26:00] Chutt: i don't see why you should be saying anything, personally.
[02:26:00] chuckyp: GreyFoxx: If I use the same settings that I know work I get static instead of the cable.
[02:26:00] Chutt: especially if you can't even get the basic new features right

[02:27:00] Juski: xpis: anyone who's even remotely interested in mythtv will know 0.19 is out soon enough
[02:27:00] chuckyp: GreyFoxx: The drivers for the card are being loaded and everything.
[02:27:00] Juski: chuckyp: and erm... catting /dev/video0 into a file then playing it works okay?
[02:27:00] sPiN: hey guys i had a system freeze on the mythtv svn, and now im getting these sql errors when i start mythbackend
[02:27:00] GreyFoxx: Actually looks like I'm being summoned (daughter woke up), gotta run
[02:28:00] sPiN: are there some database repair tools
[02:28:00] chuckyp: Juski: hold up I'm going to have my buddy log in who is at the box to help further.
[02:29:00] Juski: chuckyp: I've never known mythweb crash the backend
[02:29:00] chuckyp: Juski: It does like clock work for some reason

[02:30:00] chuckyp: Juski: Chris123 is at the box with the problem.
[02:30:00] Juski: mythweb doesn't do much in the way of talking to mythbackend.. it speaks to the database more than anything else
[02:31:00] Chris123: Juski: i noticed the beckend was still running but i believe that mythweb was crashign it
[02:31:00] Chris123: backend*
[02:31:00] Juski: I've got no idea what could cause that
[02:31:00] chuckyp: Juski: I'm not worried about why the mythweb crashes is but more about how to get it running again.
[02:32:00] Juski: does it work after a reboot?

[02:32:00] Chris123: tried all that
[02:32:00] xpis: Is this better?: MythTV 0.19 has been <A HREF="http://www.netflix.com>Netflix</A>.
[02:32:00] Chris123: its almost like it modified and saved a setting
[02:32:00] Chutt: that's better
[02:33:00] xpis: ok, I'm submitting, with a fixed netflix link
[02:33:00] Chutt: i do prefer the www.mythtv.org
[02:33:00] Chutt: but, either way
[02:33:00] Chris123: Juski: i got it back up 2 times before by clearing the capture card setting and channels int he master backend
[02:33:00] Chris123: but that doesnt work anymore
[02:33:00] Chutt: since there are other subdomains that actually go to different places
[02:33:00] Juski: Chris123 & chuckyp: if it's screwing the database up there's more wrong than meets the eye
[02:34:00] dtm: Chutt: it's not referencing a subdomain.
[02:34:00] dtm: Chutt: why would you prefer that
[02:34:00] Chris123: Juski: think if I delete the database and rebuild it it my remedy the problem

[02:35:00] Juski: Chris123: I think it might fix it until the next time mythweb is used
[02:35:00] Chutt: though mail doesn't go someplace differently anymore.
[02:35:00] Chris123: Juski: mythweb is fine until I click on the 3 icons uptop
[02:35:00] xpis: Chutt: ok, I'm adding www.
[02:35:00] Juski: but I really can't see how mythweb would break anything.. it should be _impossible_
[02:36:00] Chutt: heh
[02:36:00] Chris123: Juski: i have 16,000 mp3z in the database
[02:36:00] Chutt: load on the server is a screaming... 8%.
[02:36:00] Juski: I have more than that
[02:36:00] Juski: more than 16,000 music tracks I mean ;-)
[02:36:00] scottder: Unless it hosed the mysql DB...but how likely is that
[02:36:00] Chris123: i thought maybe loadin all that info crashed it
[02:36:00] Juski: how would mythweb hose the DB?
[02:37:00] Juski: something with the system it's on is very suspect
[02:37:00] chuckyp: Juski: I don't know. But it does like clockwork multiple reinstalls etc..
[02:37:00] Juski: and it won't be mythweb's fault, mark my words
[02:37:00] Z-Morek: wow compiling takes forever on my rig
[02:37:00] chuckyp: Juski: so what are you saying try to reinstall the db?
[02:37:00] Chris123: if i try tv functions including recorded programs, or myth video on the web I lose my channel guide and tuner
[02:38:00] Chutt: Juski, mythweb used to cause the backend to die all the time in older versions.
[02:38:00] Juski: did it?
[02:38:00] Chutt: yes
[02:38:00] xpis: Ok, slashdot story submitted. Prepare for many downloads at once if it is accepted.
[02:38:00] Juski: so anything's possible then
[02:38:00] Chris123: Mythweb music Mythweb video and recordings crashes my DB I think
[02:38:00] xpis: And make sure to have your postnuke permissions set right :P
[02:38:00] chuckyp: Juski: So does the DB hold the settings from mythtv-setup?
[02:39:00] Juski: chuckyp: you name it, the DB has it
[02:39:00] Chutt: xpis, err, we get slashdotted around once a month
[02:39:00] Chutt: it won't be anything special
[02:39:00] chuckyp: Juski: Is there a log file for the mythtv-setup somewhere?
[02:39:00] xpis: Chutt: but not when a new release is ready for people to download
[02:39:00] Chutt: last couple were
[02:39:00] Chutt: didn't do anything.
[02:39:00] Chutt: and most people use the rpms
[02:39:00] chuckyp: Juski: cause that could be the case.
[02:39:00] Juski: chuckyp: not specifically mythtv-setup, no
[02:39:00] Chutt: not the source
[02:39:00] xpis: Chutt: there are still as of yet no RPMs to download
[02:39:00] Chutt: so?
[02:39:00] Chris123: I can schedule any recordings but if i use anything else that acesses the Db pretty much kills my tuner to statis
[02:40:00] Chutt: you think people are going to try to figure out how to compile on their own instead of waiting a day or two?
[02:40:00] Juski: but look in the terminal window you're running mythtv-setup from
[02:40:00] chuckyp: Juski: If its hosing the db then possibly whatever changes are made in setup have no effect and hence the static.
[02:40:00] Chutt: doesn't happen :p
[02:40:00] dtm: xpis: who makes the rpms usually?
[02:40:00] chuckyp: Juski: no errors
[02:40:00] Chutt: axel thimm
[02:40:00] xpis: dtm: They are hosted on atrpms. No idea who makes them.
[02:40:00] Chris123: Juski: no errors in terminal
[02:40:00] Z-Morek: axel puts them on atrpms
[02:40:00] Chris123: mythbackend.log is fine aswell
[02:40:00] Juski: chuckyp: sorry but I'm out of my depth here.. like I already said I've got no idea what's gone wrong there
[02:41:00] Juski: I've never heard of that sort of thing happenning til now, and my experience has mostly been very good
[02:41:00] Juski: had a knoppmyth live cd crash a backend once or twice, but I stopped trying it ;-)
[02:42:00] Juski: it didn't actually _break_ anything
[02:42:00] chuckyp: Juski: So now the question is how to delete the db?
[02:43:00] chuckyp: Juski: Or can I just run the my.sql script and rebuild it?
[02:43:00] Juski: I'd go out on a limb & say maybe mysql is shitting itself because of all the queries.. and that's how the DB is getting corrupted
[02:43:00] Juski: chuckyp: nothing to lose, do drop the database and run the my.sql step
[02:44:00] chuckyp: Juski: my sql experience is crap. SO I don't even know how to drop the database
[02:44:00] Juski: I cant remember right now.. I know a really bad way to do it though
[02:44:00] Chris123: Wish I had mysqllite GUI
[02:44:00] Juski: a lot of people swear by phpmyadmin
[02:45:00] chuckyp: Juski: Yeah i've used phpmyadmin before

[02:48:00] Juski: jnunez: did you upgrade ivtv?
[02:49:00] Chris123: ivtv is .4.2
[02:49:00] Juski: what are your recording sizes? still 480x480? try changing em to see if it helps.. could be a problem with scaling in the driver

[02:49:00] Chris123: :p
[02:50:00] Juski: hell my 800 smeg athlon with 256mb coped with all these files without ever coughing
[02:51:00] Z-Morek: install complete
[02:51:00] Juski: and lots of lesser systems have no problems.. I'd suspect a software/memory problem (ish) in your case.. but as I already said – it's uncharted territory from my point of view
[02:51:00] Z-Morek: reboot in progress
[02:53:00] jnunez: juski: I did upgrade ivtv and my size is the default 480x480 (it worked before)
[02:54:00] Juski: jnunez: "it worked before" the upgrade is a sign that the upgrade borked it ;)
[02:54:00] jnunez: what is the ideal setting for the PVR cards?
[02:54:00] Juski: jnunez – if scaling works properly, then anything that works
[02:55:00] Juski: if in doubt, whack it up to full resolution (720x480 for NTSC, 720x576 for PAL)
[02:55:00] Juski: I tried 480x480 with 0.4.1 and didn't find it to be good enough, so I now use 720x576
[02:56:00] jnunez: thanks juski I'll start messing with it. My daughter is currently pissed. She missed her cartoons cause all of the recordings were clipped today
[02:56:00] Juski: ouch!
[02:56:00] Juski: having a look on the ivtv forum/list would be a very good idea too...
[02:56:00] jnunez: yup reading it now
[02:56:00] Juski: or ask in #ivtv-dev
[02:56:00] Z-Morek: ok installed
[02:56:00] Juski: (read first though, eh) ;-)
[02:57:00] Z-Morek: and mythbackend isn't running...
[02:57:00] Juski: here we go...
[02:57:00] Z-Morek: something about libmyth

[03:13:00] Z-Morek: and when I try to start mythbackend it says the libmyth library doesn't exist only it does
[03:14:00] Z-Morek: I probably screwed up something really small
[03:14:00] GreyFoxx: did you actually remove the packaged version first? Cause it sounds like you have a mix of stuff on there
[03:14:00] Z-Morek: I went into apt and removed the packages
[03:14:00] GreyFoxx: most packages are installed in different locations and the source builds, so just installing from source it wouldn't overwrite
[03:15:00] Z-Morek: well does it make a difference where I download the tarball and compile it?
[03:15:00] Z-Morek: I probably screwed that up
[03:15:00] GreyFoxx: not really
[03:16:00] Z-Morek: would it make a difference if I compiled it as root rather than the user?
[03:16:00] GreyFoxx: sounds to me like you are running a leftover binary
[03:16:00] GreyFoxx: no
[03:16:00] GreyFoxx: cept you would need to be root to install it
[03:18:00] Z-Morek: so by doing apt-get remove it doesn't really remove does it?
[03:19:00] GreyFoxx: I would assume it should, but I've never used apt-get
[03:19:00] Z-Morek: :-\
[03:21:00] Z-Morek: if when I removed during apt
[03:21:00] Z-Morek: and mythbackend and frontend were running
[03:21:00] Z-Morek: and continued running while I compiled and installed would that be significant?

[04:23:00] Z-Morek: anyways
[04:23:00] Z-Morek: is there any immediate solution?
[04:23:00] Z-Morek: the docs say if you don't use lirc native you can use irxevent
[04:23:00] Z-Morek: but it won't run in console for me
[04:23:00] Z-Morek: at least not over ssh
[04:24:00] Z-Morek: and when I run it on the mythbackend/frontend terminal in background mode
[04:25:00] Z-Morek: frontend still won't respond to remote
[04:25:00] Z-Morek: and I know the remote is configured and setup correctly, I just upgraded from a fully working setup
[04:25:00] Z-Morek: and irw picked up everything
[04:25:00] xpis: Yellow-Snow: so, are you going to install mythtv 0.19 now, or wait until knoppmyth releases an update?
[04:26:00] xpis: Yellow-Snow: with fedora, you would get binaries quicker than knoppmyth
[04:26:00] Z-Morek: or you can compile on your own like I did! :-P

[04:26:00] Yellow-Snow: xpis not sure man
[04:26:00] Yellow-Snow: i might do both

[04:27:00] Z-Morek: I'll figure out themes
[04:27:00] xpis: Yellow-Snow: Or, you could use gentoo. It will automate most things, but it will take forever to install. Everything will have to be compiled.

[05:56:00] Gumby`: does anyone know if there is a way to start a recording and choose which tuner gets chosen for it?

[08:49:00] ShockValue: ew.. sorry, im the wrong guy
[08:49:00] eiggirC: Thrilla: I have one of those on a shelf waiting to go into my mythbox :)
[08:49:00] eiggirC: Thrilla: btw – static is good
[08:49:00] eiggirC: static shows the tuner is getting something
[08:49:00] eiggirC: you need to look at channel tuning in mythtv-setup
[08:49:00] Thrilla: yeah, and I can record static too....
[08:50:00] eiggirC: mmmm kwality digital static :)
[08:50:00] Thrilla: in stereo
[08:50:00] eiggirC: to get static means you've got past all the firmware issues etc.
[08:50:00] eiggirC: so feel confident you're making progress
[08:50:00] Thrilla: what am I looking for in the setup? Havent really found a detailed set of instructions for specific cards
[08:51:00] ShockValue: it seems that staring at the 0.19 compile isnt helping it go any faster

[10:26:00] ShockValue: think so.. sec
[10:27:00] ShockValue: i assume you're not talking about this: * You enabled the 'nvidia' USE flag, you must have a GeForce 4 or
[10:28:00] ShockValue: * Running ./configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --disable-audio-oss --disable-audio-arts --disable-audio-jack --disable-altivec --enable-xvmc

[10:29:00] Cardoe: MissActek: using the nvidia drivers?
[10:30:00] ShockValue: gbee – it makes reference to it, but i dont think that's the part that says "use it, or dont"

[10:32:00] Cardoe: ShockValue: go look in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf for the TV setting

[10:33:00] Cardoe: MissActek: no. telling ShockValue to open up his file and peek to help you out.
[10:34:00] Cardoe: since he's using nvidia
[10:34:00] MissActek: Ahh.
[10:37:00] MissActek: Are there any OSS drivers for old nVidia cards like this? Maybe I'd be better with them?

[11:45:00] Puh: it's pretty close to the limits with xbox, some extra cpu power would be nice
[11:45:00] Juski: morning gardengnome
[11:46:00] Juski: Puh: it's RAM the xbox needs more of to run linux, not necessarily CPU
[11:47:00] Puh: well judging by vmstat and top output cpu is also needed
[11:47:00] Puh: it plays but for example picture-in-picture things and such don't work
[11:47:00] Juski: keep an eye on the open XDK ;)
[11:48:00] Puh: the really nice part is a decent tv-out and sound output

[11:54:00] fryfrog: if i start it with gentoo scripts, it does not find it
[11:55:00] fryfrog: but the damn thing does tell me *where* its looking
[11:55:00] Cardoe: fryfrog: it should pull it from /etc/mythtv
[11:55:00] Cardoe: delete all the files.
[11:55:00] Cardoe: it should use /etc/mythtv by default
[11:55:00] Cardoe: that's what it's hardcoded to use

[12:04:00] fryfrog: but never could
[12:05:00] Cardoe: fryfrog: what do you mean anymore 0.19 ebuilds?
[12:05:00] fryfrog: is xebian spiffy?
[12:05:00] Cardoe: Puh: works good? disable switch for Xbox Live?
[12:05:00] fryfrog: last time you talked about em, you said there was only for like 3 modules?
[12:05:00] fryfrog: dvd, web and something else?
[12:05:00] Cardoe: oh
[12:05:00] Puh: Cardoe, works fine, i've never used xbox live

[12:06:00] Cardoe: like a bigger HD?
[12:06:00] Puh: nope
[12:07:00] Cardoe: the pain in the neck part is getting a BIOS probably
[12:07:00] Puh: i compiled qt and myth and such on remote filesystem over nfs and used distcc
[12:07:00] Puh: i can't even remember the first steps with the modded box
[12:07:00] Puh: but it was actually quite easy
[12:09:00] dtm: Puh: so you have a somewhat generic linux distro on your xbox?
[12:09:00] fryfrog: bios is easy :)
[12:09:00] fryfrog: no, he said xebian
[12:09:00] fryfrog: which would be xbox specific debian, not generic i'd say ;)
[12:10:00] Cardoe: can you still use the Xbox to play DVDs?
[12:10:00] Puh: well the main difference to debian is the custom kernel
[12:10:00] Puh: sure
[12:10:00] dtm: anything based on another distro is by definition generic
[12:10:00] Puh: i can play games and whatever
[12:10:00] Cardoe: reboot?
[12:10:00] Cardoe: can you switch to DVD with just the remote?
[12:10:00] dtm: Puh: do you have a tv input?
[12:11:00] fryfrog: i imagine its just his FE
[12:11:00] Puh: i can select shutdown from mythtv menu and it reboots to a custom dashboard
[12:11:00] Puh: there i can choose to run mythtv or xbmc or watch dvd or play games or ..
[12:11:00] fryfrog: what dash do you use?
[12:11:00] fryfrog: i really like xbmc
[12:11:00] Puh: evolution-x
[12:11:00] dtm: Puh: does it use the xbox controller as the mythtv gui pointer?
[12:11:00] Puh: i use the xbox remote
[12:11:00] Puh: but the xbox controller works also
[12:12:00] Puh: i just like it wireless
[12:12:00] Cardoe: hrm
[12:12:00] Cardoe: Choice is for Generation 3b or 4 mod chips
[12:12:00] fryfrog: damn, now i'll have to start messing with it ;/
[12:12:00] fryfrog: i'd always go with the "latest"
[12:13:00] fryfrog: unless the older ones are a lot cheaper?
[12:13:00] dtm: Puh: my buddy has xbmc from about 1.5 yrs ago. do you happen to know offhand if there are any problems in upgrading to current? does he hafta back up any conf files?
[12:13:00] fryfrog: I <3 my X3, but i'd get another laterer one
[12:13:00] fryfrog: dtm: There were some minor changes, i think they recommended nuking your config and starting over
[12:13:00] fryfrog: dtm: its also easier to *make* xbmc your dash now
[12:13:00] Cardoe: fryfrog: so..
[12:13:00] dtm: fryfrog: oic
[12:13:00] Puh: dtm, my xbmc is just as old so i wouldn't know
[12:13:00] Cardoe: http://www.xboxscene.com/modchips4_table.htm
[12:14:00] Juski: dtm: the biggest difference is in the skin – ProjectMayhem3
[12:14:00] ** Cardoe has no idea which one he wants **
[12:14:00] dtm: fryfrog: would that be a bunch of work? i never set one up.
[12:14:00] dtm: fryfrog: i guess upgrading to any new system would be a buncha work if you want to configure the new stuff anyway.
[12:14:00] fryfrog: It is just FTP'ing a ton of files
[12:14:00] Juski: Cardoe: they're basically all the same, allowing you to run unsigned code... when you get the chip it only comes with a basic BIOS that lets you reflash it
[12:14:00] fryfrog: you then simply copy a "xbmc.xbe" file to your c:\
[12:14:00] dtm: fryfrog: it's all automatic, isn't it?
[12:15:00] fryfrog: and tell your mod chip to boot it
[12:15:00] Puh: installing xbmc is basically unzipping a file to a specific folder on the xbox filesystem
[12:15:00] fryfrog: well, its not really an "upgrade"
[12:15:00] dtm: that's what i thought.
[12:15:00] fryfrog: yeah, what puh said
[12:15:00] fryfrog: its not like going from win95 -> win98
[12:15:00] fryfrog: more like unzipping a new version of putty :0
[12:15:00] dtm: cool.
[12:15:00] fryfrog: Cardoe: My GF got me the X3 for xmas (and the xbox) and it works fine
[12:15:00] Juski: you can even still access the original dashboard if you like – unless you've unlocked or changed the HDD
[12:16:00] dtm: he doesn't have to back anything up then huh
[12:16:00] fryfrog: Cardoe: But I suspect *any* of those modchips would be awsome
[12:16:00] fryfrog: dtm: not unless he has something *super* special configured
[12:16:00] dtm: i reckon he'll start over anyway
[12:16:00] Puh: dtm, i would probably rename the old folder first just in case :)
[12:16:00] Cardoe: so the X-lite @ $35 is probably fine.
[12:16:00] Puh: dtm, then test the new version before throwing the old one away
[12:16:00] fryfrog: I update xbmc every month or so, when I ftp it skips a TON of files
[12:17:00] fryfrog: Cardoe: prolly, I think one of the big differences is the amount of storage space for bioses
[12:17:00] fryfrog: I *only* use the X3 one, even though I think it could hold like 4 more
[12:17:00] Puh: also the file upload is a LOT easier with xebian as one can use any ftp or sftp server or such
[12:17:00] Puh: the evox ftp server is somehow crippled and refuses to work with some ftp programs
[12:17:00] fryfrog: that sucks
[12:17:00] Puh: yep
[12:17:00] fryfrog: most of the bios also have a ftp server built in
[12:18:00] fryfrog: I've used FlashFXP with X3, evox, xbmc and ummm
[12:18:00] fryfrog: avalaunch
[12:20:00] Puh: i'll try to compile the frontend without --enable-proc-opts next, maybe that helps for the jerkiness
[12:20:00] Juski: the most basic of ftp works for me.. good ole commandline ;)
[12:21:00] Cardoe: Puh: try adding -Os for compiles
[12:21:00] Juski: does xbox linux user nvidia drivers?
[12:21:00] Juski: maybe xvmc would work
[12:21:00] Puh: as far as i know, it doesn't
[12:21:00] Juski: bah
[12:22:00] Juski: well, xbmc uses mplayer & I've yet to see a file stumble on playback
[12:22:00] Puh: so far i've only touched mythtv and changing any x drivers or such could only worsen this
[12:22:00] Puh: i'll try to fix mythfrontend first, then break the world if necessary :)
[12:23:00] Cardoe: did you guys get a solderless chip?
[12:23:00] Puh: nope, a friend of mine has steady hands
[12:23:00] fryfrog: I also went solder, a friend is real good at it
[12:24:00] fryfrog: looking back i'm glad i had him do it, i have *very* shakey hands
[12:24:00] fryfrog: he made it look easy though :)
[12:24:00] Cardoe: well then
[12:24:00] ** Cardoe orders the $35 X-lite chip. **
[12:24:00] fryfrog: took us about 1 hour, that included desoldering the "easy" 1.6 bridge and using little wires
[12:24:00] Cardoe: I have a 1.0 Xbox
[12:24:00] fryfrog: ah
[12:24:00] fryfrog: who makes the X-lite?
[12:24:00] fryfrog: is it Xecuter?
[12:25:00] Cardoe: Team X-Chip?
[12:25:00] fryfrog: ah
[12:25:00] fryfrog: the X in the name confused me :)
[12:25:00] Cardoe: not Xecuter
[12:26:00] Cardoe: maybe I'll have MythTV working in the living room
[12:26:00] Cardoe: won't have to deal with the PPC box
[12:26:00] Cardoe: it can only be a back end
[12:26:00] MissActek: Cardoe: I found out my problem.
[12:26:00] Cardoe: MissActek: ?
[12:26:00] MissActek: The one that was making me have a black unresponsive screen in X.
[12:26:00] Cardoe: yeah
[12:26:00] Cardoe: what was it
[12:26:00] MissActek: The stable nvidia-kernel package for x86 (1.0.6629-r5) appears to be incompatable with the stable kernel for x86 (2.6.15-gentoo-r1). I don't know how to properly report that.
[12:26:00] Cardoe: MissActek: http://bugs.gentoo.org
[12:27:00] MissActek: Sorry, copied that from #gentoo, where I'm asking how to report it.
[12:27:00] MissActek: Yeah, but how do I use that?
[12:27:00] Cardoe: they "stable" kernels too quickly.
[12:27:00] Cardoe: there's probably a bug report about it already.
[12:27:00] fryfrog: the one "neat" thing i like about x3 is that it has lan/hdd activity lights
[12:27:00] fryfrog: useless... but cute!
[12:27:00] Cardoe: haha
[12:28:00] MissActek: x3 is what exactly?
[12:28:00] fryfrog: modchip for xbox
[12:28:00] MissActek: Awesome. :)
[12:28:00] fryfrog: and some of them can have LCDs
[12:29:00] fryfrog: which could potentially be neat for myth
[12:29:00] MissActek: I wanna get this one for PS2 that lets you put on OS on it and boot from HD.
[12:29:00] Cardoe: anyway I'm out
[12:29:00] Cardoe: Gotta go to work
[12:29:00] fryfrog: don't you have to buy the hd for ps2? and it comes with linux?

[13:55:00] Kelerion: the network speed?

[14:26:00] coffee88: heh! You're right....
[14:26:00] Juski: Puh: driver locked up :)
[14:26:00] xpis: gbee: but the features don't sound spectacular, even though there are many improvements.
[14:26:00] Puh: something like that
[14:26:00] Puh: rebooting now
[14:26:00] coffee88: Is the upgrade to .19 painless?
[14:26:00] xpis: coffee88: yes
[14:26:00] Juski: xpis: mythtv doesn't need slashdot to spread the word imho.. things as good as this become known to people
[14:27:00] Puh: oops i meant /dev/dvb/adapter1/demux0 of course
[14:27:00] Juski: Puh: of course.. heheh
[14:28:00] Juski: xpis: I've seen posts on an MCE forum about mythtv.. people gave up on myth after like half an hour because they didn't know what they were doing
[14:28:00] ** coffee88 wonders how long it will be hard masked in gentoo portage.... **
[14:28:00] xpis: Juski: which is why an easier install is needed.

[14:29:00] coffee88: somebody told me on Friday that with MCE you can't even choose a specific input source to record... Weird.
[14:29:00] Juski: xpis: it takes less time to install linux on a box than it does to install XP
[14:29:00] Juski: by the time you take all the updates into account ;)
[14:29:00] Juski: install patch.. reboot.. install more patches.. reboot.. more patches.. reboot
[14:29:00] xpis: Juski: but once MCE is installed, updated, anti-virus protected, etc.... everything is ready to go.
[14:29:00] Puh: all right, now i'm getting data from card 0 as usual
[14:29:00] Puh: phew
[14:29:00] Juski: Puh: cool!
[14:30:00] Juski: xpis: problems with MCE... you can't mix tuner types
[14:30:00] Juski: i.e. if you have 2 tuners they've got to be both analogue or digital
[14:30:00] Juski: and you can only have two tuners

[14:30:00] Juski: it's no picnic to install & configure either
[14:31:00] xpis: Juski: Having to make sure you have library headers installed, have all the path settings correct, configure mythtv, compile & install it, set it up...
[14:31:00] Juski: xpis: wtf are you talking about?
[14:31:00] xpis: Juski: that's what people have to go through to install mythtv.
[14:31:00] Juski: I put mythtv on a spare box using ubuntu in less than 2 hours from a blank hard disk
[14:31:00] coffee88: xpis: If I found it easy on gentoo, it must be a piece of piss on something like knoppmyth!
[14:32:00] xpis: Juski: But you are not the average joe popping a fedora CD.
[14:32:00] coffee88: Cardoe? You there?
[14:32:00] xpis: Yes, gentoo would make things easier, as everything is done automagically... but compiling everything sounds scary to people with fedora CDs.
[14:32:00] Juski: well hey look – it's free, right.. well almost... so you've got to be prepared to roll up your sleevs & get a little dirty
[14:33:00] Juski: if users can't see that they should get lost ;)
[14:33:00] Puh: aah, i'm relieved ;) i need a drink ;)
[14:33:00] Juski: there are still people out there who can't operate TVs properly ffs, never mind work computers properly :P
[14:34:00] lyndon: has anyone got mythgame working?
[14:34:00] Kyler: I just re-encountered a problem I've been having with ivtv drivers for awhile. My second (of four) PVR-250s doesn't seem to like recording from s-video. The picture is horribly fuzzy. A few minutes ago I caught a recording like that. I verified that the input was set correctly and then tried setting it svideo2. That resulted in a black screen so I switched back to svideo1. Then it was fine.
[14:34:00] gbee: xpis: well in that case I don't see the launch of Windows Vista getting slashdotted either, nothing new there at all! ;)
[14:34:00] xpis: Juski: I think mythtv should be installable with a remote. Just like it can be operated with a remote.
[14:34:00] Juski: oh yeah right
[14:34:00] xpis: Juski: the ease of installation should approach the ease of use.
[14:34:00] Juski: so get coding young skywalker
[14:35:00] laga: it should be possible to map './configure; qmake mythtv.pro; make; sudo make install;' to a button your remote
[14:35:00] Juski: if Isaac and the other devs intended mythtv to get the widest possible audience I'd guess they'd already have made inroads to that
[14:36:00] Juski: laga: think I did the right thing locking the 0.19 announcement thread? ;)
[14:36:00] xpis: an installation wizard would have to detect missing libraries, and tell the user how to get them. It would be quite a task to detect every possible setup properly.
[14:36:00] Juski: xpis: yup... and then some
[14:37:00] Juski: knoppmyth works well in a lot of situations.. but it still asks users questions they can answer wrong & screw things up big style
[14:37:00] xpis: But it shouldn't require installing a linux live cd to install a software package.
[14:38:00] xpis: And knoppmyth may not have the latest drivers and such – something fedora would with a quick yum update kernel.
[14:38:00] Juski: talked to one of our customer service guys on friday.. he had a guy on asking where the enter key is on his keyboard
[14:38:00] The_Login: u can try ubuntu

[14:40:00] The_Login: i just begin the installaton on ubuntu
[14:41:00] xpis: Then perhaps it is as simple as telling people to not use fedora, as there is no good source of mythtv RPMs.
[14:41:00] Juski: just posted to the users list about tv_grab_uk_rt not working,. hopefully someone will know
[14:42:00] Juski: xpis: jarod's guide is nothing if not comprehensive... but FC is letting folks down all over the place
[14:42:00] xpis: Also – due to patent issues, it is a bad idea to tell anyone to use binaries.
[14:42:00] xpis: Juski: the Fedora guide is good. (I've looked at it) But ATRPMS is not.

[14:43:00] Juski: rotfl @ patent issues... there aren't many things mythtv uses that are protected by patents... dvd playback of protected discs being one of them
[14:44:00] Juski: and then that doesn't have _much_ to do with myth itself
[14:44:00] Juski: installing that is the user's perogative

[14:44:00] xpis: Juski: mpeg4, lame
[14:45:00] Juski: possibly
[14:45:00] xpis: Juski: anyone distributing ffmpeg binaries could be sued. Esp. since now the SBC sharks have apparantly aquired another mpeg4 patent with AT&T.
[14:46:00] Juski: so can we not just pay our $0.20 and be done with it?
[14:46:00] xpis: That's a bit hard with the GPL.
[14:47:00] The_Login: Juski what linux distribution are u using ?
[14:47:00] Juski: The_Login: ubuntu on my spare unused box, gentoo on the backend & minimyth on the frontend

[14:47:00] floffe: so nvidia's 7667 drivers are ok?
[14:47:00] Juski: floffe: apparently so
[14:49:00] xpis: I wish someone would license various patents and sell (licensed) open source binaries for a small fee. The source would of course be free and downloadable, since that only describes the patent – and would be covered under the GPL.
[14:49:00] Juski: anyway – dropping mp3 audio from mythtv wouldn't bother me too much – all I'd need do is re-rip all my 10,000 CDs
[14:50:00] Juski: I don't think I'd miss mpeg4 much either
[14:50:00] xpis: Also, there is currently no support for vorbis in recordings.
[14:50:00] Juski: though ac3, I rely on quite a bit... bloody dolby labs
[14:51:00] xpis: If patents on algorithms would just be overturned, the headaches would go away.

[14:55:00] coffee88: Any way to quicly fix?
[14:56:00] Juski: coffee88: look in the contrib directory
[14:56:00] Juski: or maybe mythlink needs an update
[14:56:00] Puh: livetv still seems jerky
[14:57:00] Puh: sound is ok, but the video is somehow jumpy
[14:57:00] Juski: Puh: any prebufferring pauses?
[14:57:00] Puh: like it would slow down and speed up in periods of about 1 second
[14:57:00] Juski: yup
[14:57:00] Puh: no

[14:58:00] xpis: Puh: Is the bahavior the same after restarting?
[14:58:00] Puh: it takes quite a long time for the playback to start, but then it plays without pauses, just jerks
[14:58:00] Puh: yes i saw this already before
[14:58:00] Puh: but the recorded programs play just fine
[14:58:00] Puh: its only the live tv that jerks

[14:58:00] Juski: Puh: I suspect it's the EIT grabbing
[14:58:00] Puh: hmm
[14:59:00] Juski: can't remember if the patches for that made it into 0.19
[15:00:00] Puh: if you have some patches that could help out i'm willing to try em
[15:00:00] Puh: livetv is quite annoying like this

[15:01:00] Juski: yup
[15:01:00] Juski: backend usage without the patch was like 60% CPU when I was testing SVN
[15:02:00] Juski: went down to <3% with the patch
[15:02:00] Puh: the backend has barely any load — load average around 0.26 and this is AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2500+
[15:02:00] Juski: it's very bursty
[15:02:00] Puh: hmm
[15:02:00] Juski: and the fact the patch didn't get into 0.19 tells all ;)
[15:02:00] Juski: nor did DVB radio
[15:03:00] Juski: they're on my list for when I upgrade
[15:03:00] Juski: theres gonna be a whole lot of traffic about this too I suspect
[15:04:00] Puh: hmh
[15:04:00] ivor (n=ivor@difo.gotadsl.co.uk) has joined #mythtv-users
[15:05:00] Puh: the frontend says that there's like 20 seconds of data buffered
[15:05:00] Puh: and if the frontend gets it by nfs — how can the eit handling cause jerkiness?
[15:05:00] Juski: Puh: if you look at top, I suspect you'll see mythbackend using more than its old amount
[15:05:00] Puh: (i don't quite understand what i'm doing here :)
[15:06:00] Juski: Puh: before the patch, the EIT parser was doing a _lot_ of sql queries.. and that's what eats things up
[15:06:00] Puh: ok
[15:06:00] Juski: like hundreds in the space of a couple of seconds, every few seconds, all the time
[15:07:00] Puh: but the sql queries would still be from the backend machine to the mysql machine?
[15:07:00] Juski: you've got the database on a different machine to the backend?
[15:07:00] Juski: that'd make it even worse
[15:07:00] Puh: no, i meant that the queries still wouldn't affect the frontend playing back files over nfs?
[15:08:00] Juski: Puh: no
[15:08:00] Juski: but it's still possible that that is the cause
[15:09:00] Juski: anyway you don't need nfs to share recordings/ringbuffer
[15:09:00] Juski: myth can do it all itself
[15:09:00] Juski: all you really need nfs/samba for is to share files for mythvideo/mythmusic/mythgallery

[15:47:00] chuckyp: So what would cause my set up to just die all of the sudden after mythweb crashed the backend? I've double checked settings in mythtv-setup everything appears okay; however, I just get static for video. This is after restart, system was working for approximately 3 days prior to this event.
[15:48:00] chuckyp: IVTV is loading without errors remote is working but static from the tunner in mythfrontend.
[15:48:00] chuckyp: I had to redo the db because mythweb hosed it somehow and then mythtv-setup was re ran and mythfilldatabase etc....

[15:49:00] chuckyp: cat /dev/video0 > test.mpg also results in static.
[15:50:00] Esotericisms: aparently there aren't any binaries for 0.19 right now in the apt repositories :(
[15:50:00] floffe: does the channel table in the db look good?
[15:51:00] chuckyp: floffe: everything appears fine in the db; however, I'm not using the db when using cat /dev/video0 as stated above.
[15:51:00] chuckyp: floffe: just to test the tuner. So i'm thinking ivtv got screwed up somehow.
[15:51:00] JeffATL (n=jeff@66.56.2.53) has joined #mythtv-users
[15:52:00] Octane: anyone here have a change channel script for a settop box that needs you to send out each channel digit seperately? the change channel script that i have sends the digits all at once...
[15:52:00] chuckyp: floffe: or the tuner somehow died at the same time.
[15:52:00] chuckyp: Octane: yes I have one.
[15:53:00] Jin^eLD: has anyone been able to compile mythtv for mipsel?
[15:53:00] chuckyp: Octane: like you mean send 2 then 4 then 9 then enter, you can even configure it for no enter.
[15:53:00] Octane: yes!
[15:53:00] Octane: the one i have sends 2 4 9
[15:53:00] Octane: SEND_ONCE 2 4 9
[15:54:00] Octane: i need SEND_ONCE 2; SEND_ONCE 4; SEND_ONCE 9;
[15:54:00] Octane: so it needs to parse the number it gets from the command line
[15:54:00] chuckyp: Octane: this is the best one i've found on the web so far and I'm using it now. Link is http://www.blushingpenguin.com/mark/lmilk/change_channel
[15:55:00] chuckyp: Octane: it also parses numbers from text commands so you need to edit your lirc.conf so that number keys start with numbers and function keys such as power etc.. start with letters.
[15:55:00] chuckyp: Octane: If you read the script its pretty easy to understand.
[15:56:00] Juski: laga: I'm amazed there've not been any posts with 0.19 problems on the forum yet.. it must just work, then :-O
[15:56:00] chuckyp: Octane: also keep in mind this is a perl script.
[15:56:00] Kelerion: oh -cool.. a slave backend can save to a different storage area and all the frontends can still see it.. didn't realise that
[15:56:00] chuckyp: Juski: yeah I'm just waiting for the binaries because I think it will fix a lot of my problems.
[15:56:00] Octane: chuckyp thanks, i dont think this is it though... it just adds spaces b/w the digits
[15:56:00] Juski: Kelerion: yeh that's what the myth protocol does ;-)
[15:57:00] Kelerion: yup.. it makes sense.. just didn't occur to me.. lol
[15:57:00] chuckyp: Octane: no it adds spaces then sends each one individually I believe let me check real quick. It adds spaces just so the script can understand each digit seperately.
[15:57:00] Juski: you could go to the trouble of sharing the folders all mounted to one place, but there's no merit
[15:58:00] chuckyp: Octane: like myth sends change_channel 249 then the script changes that to irsend .... 2 irsend .... 4 irsend ...9 then if you turn the enter option on it sends the enter key.
[15:58:00] JeffATL: do i need to concern myself with this "MythTV is still very much bleeding edge, and you may find a lot of useful bugfixes in the latest versions. Ebuilds from SVN can be obtained here:" given that gentoo portage is calling up mythtv-0.18.1-r1 ?

[15:59:00] Juski: when I say build from source I mean compile yourself
[15:59:00] chuckyp: Octane: if you read the script it has a counter for the ammount of digits so if you are trying to change to a 3 digit channel it sends each one independantly.

[17:18:00] sphing: isamuel: my only remote idea, is that maybe youre renicing incorrectly?
[17:18:00] isamuel: sphing: higher nice value is better/"nicer" right? i set it to like, +19
[17:18:00] sphing: no
[17:18:00] sphing: other way
[17:18:00] sphing: man nice
[17:19:00] floffe: isamuel: yes, 19 is the one with lowest priority
[17:19:00] Kelerion: +19 is the lowest priority
[17:19:00] isamuel: yeah that's what I thought. :)
[17:20:00] sphing: better is negative...
[17:20:00] sphing: highest priority is -20
[17:20:00] isamuel: yeah, I'm saying I set it to a really low priority

[20:26:00] Kleptophobiac: at least if you mount them
[20:27:00] alex777: another quick (stupid) question: how do you change visualizations in mythmusic ? :)
[20:27:00] alex777: Kleptophobiac yea, if I mount them, but I want it to kinda do it without any user interaction, so maybe a script that also mounts the iso before playing it
[20:27:00] Kleptophobiac: try pressing 4, 5, and 6
[20:28:00] Kleptophobiac: you can write a bash script launcher
[20:28:00] Kleptophobiac: that determines if it's an ISO
[20:28:00] Kleptophobiac: and then have mythvideo call that script instead of mplayer
[20:28:00] Kleptophobiac: the script would call mplayer based on its analysis of the file
[20:28:00] alex777: I could just do it by extension
[20:30:00] Kleptophobiac: indeed
[20:30:00] Kleptophobiac: that's legit
[20:30:00] alex777: now another question about mythvideo
[20:30:00] alex777: can I have it organize files by folder structure
[20:31:00] alex777: it seems that it just takes all the files in all the subfolders
[20:31:00] alex777: kinda hard to keep anything organized
[20:31:00] Kleptophobiac: yeah
[20:31:00] Kleptophobiac: set it to file browser view
[20:32:00] Kleptophobiac: it then preserves directory structure
[20:32:00] alex777: where do I do that from ?
[20:32:00] Kleptophobiac: setup -> media -> video
[20:32:00] Kleptophobiac: somewhere in there
[20:32:00] Kleptophobiac: can't remember specifically
[20:32:00] Kleptophobiac: that changes the default menu
[20:32:00] Kleptophobiac: you can use the menu button and change it "on the fly" but the setting doesn't stick as default
[20:34:00] alex777: ah, I see what you mean, that works
[20:34:00] alex777: thanks
[20:34:00] scopeuk: anyone considere riging a gp2x as a frontend?
[20:34:00] alex777: even gallery view has a folder view
[20:34:00] Kleptophobiac: :)
[20:34:00] alex777: and another question now
[20:35:00] alex777: in live tv
[20:35:00] ** Kleptophobiac doesn't use live tv **
[20:35:00] Kleptophobiac: but feel free to ask
[20:35:00] alex777: when in browsing through the guide
[20:35:00] alex777: and I find a channel, how do I make it switch to that channel ?
[20:35:00] alex777: my instict was to press OK (return), but it doesn't do it
[20:35:00] coffee88_away is now known as coffee88
[20:36:00] Kleptophobiac: it can
[20:36:00] Kleptophobiac: but that's a behavior option set from within the depths of the setup pages

[20:37:00] Kleptophobiac: just... ugly
[20:37:00] alex777: I think I found it
[20:37:00] alex777: and I need to find out why it takes 2–3 seconds to switch channels
[20:37:00] alex777: it's really slow
[20:37:00] Kleptophobiac: that's normal
[20:38:00] Kleptophobiac: it has to build up a buffer to hard disk before sending out video
[20:38:00] Kleptophobiac: on top of normal channel switching time of a tuner card (which is considerably longer than a TV in the first place)

[23:35:00] [Elvis]: I can't get nvtv to start when I put it in my .xinitrc anyone has a clue why?
[23:35:00] fdsd: lotia, need to do anythign special?
[23:35:00] [Elvis]: it works perfectly fine when I start it in x itself
[23:36:00] lotia: fdsd: do you know how to unmask stuff by putting it in /etc/portage/package.keywords
[23:36:00] lotia: fdsd: you also need to put stuff in /etc/portage/package.unmask
[23:36:00] lotia: do you need to know what to put in?

[23:37:00] lotia: folks any difference between the quality of xvmc and ffmpeg mpeg2 decoders?
[23:39:00] mofu: most think the software decoders do a slightly better job, assuming you have the HP to keep up
[23:40:00] lotia: mofu: p4 3.2? will that do the job?
[23:40:00] fdsd: emerging now
[23:40:00] mofu: lotia: err, yeah, maybe ;-)
[23:41:00] lotia: fdsd: did you check to make sure that its installing 0.19?
[23:41:00] mofu: lotia: I'm using 2.8 Cel-D
[23:41:00] mofu: works ok with HD
[23:41:00] fdsd: it is
[23:41:00] lotia: mofu: will it have any impact on the backend stuff, sometimes i'm doing 4 sd records at once?

[23:42:00] mofu: lotia: I've only run HD on single card develepment boxes, not sure, your extra speed and HT will definetely help
[23:43:00] mofu: this is a combo front/back??
[23:43:00] lotia: also what about ffmpeg vs libmpeg2, which one should i use
[23:43:00] lotia: mofu: yes it is
[23:43:00] mofu: lotia: I prefer libmpeg2, slightly better usage, nice pic
[23:43:00] Yellow-Snow: hey guys.. why when i wget a file it adds ^M to the file? i xedit it and it adds ^M if i use nano i dont see it.. why?
[23:44:00] lotia: mofu: libmpeg2 does a better job than ffmpeg?
[23:44:00] mofu: slightly lower cpu usage I think

[23:49:00] xris: well, we made the front page of /. with .19

[23:53:00] nanoITX: Oh, is there a *definitive* list of dependencies for mythtv anywhere? I'd like to completely build from scratch on a minimal linux 2.6.15 install on my nanoITX
[23:53:00] nanoITX: Right now, I just slapped FC 3 on it, and went from there, but that's WAY too much for this frontend
[23:53:00] Spacey_ (n=spacey@itsb067.itsnpt.com) Quit (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
[23:54:00] lotia: so combined system and usr cpu usage is < 20% will it spike watching fast motion stuff using ffmpeg?
[23:54:00] fdsd: I think Mythtv needs to update their website more
[23:54:00] lane (n=lschwar@c-24-118-139-118.hsd1.mn.comcast.net) Quit ()
[23:54:00] fdsd: it was almost 1 year since they updated it
[23:55:00] Comprox: If one is looking at trying to use MythTV, but has not touched Linux in over 10 years (and only a little back then), am I in for a world of hurt trying to figure this out? The sintructions seem like greek to me already :)
[23:55:00] mofu: fdsd: which do you want? Update the website or update the software?? there hasn't been any news worth sharing, if you;re using SVN pay more attention to the mailing lists instead of the webiste
[23:56:00] to3cutt3r (n=jroberts@dsl017-097-107.lax1.dsl.speakeasy.net) Quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
[23:56:00] fdsd: Comprox, yeah, you should have a good understanding on how the system works, command line is your friend..
[23:56:00] Comprox: that's what I figured
[23:56:00] nanoITX: Comprox: you might want to do what I did: start with a relatively full Linux + O/S install, like FC 3 and then layer the myth bits on top.
[23:56:00] mofu: Comprox: be patient, go slow . . the Docs are actually pretty good
[23:56:00] fdsd: Comprox, if you can install gentoo linux you can install mythtv
[23:57:00] Comprox: Oh, Im sure the docs are good, Im not sure if Im good at reading docs, being male and all
[23:57:00] mofu: lol
[23:58:00] splat1 is now known as splAt1
[23:58:00] Comprox: Not used to the whole manual reading thing
[23:58:00] lotia: fdsd: actually gentoo is not too much of a pain if you follow the instructions.
[23:58:00] fdsd: yay mythtv 0.19 is installed
[23:58:00] mofu: ubuntu distro makes myth fairly painless as well, take your choice, emerge or apt-get
[23:58:00] lotia: also i'd strongly recommend using evms for disk management
[23:58:00] ** Comprox scurris off to read **
[23:58:00] fdsd: lotia, naw
[23:59:00] lotia: fdsd: i think its better than the lvm2 tools
[23:59:00] mofu: I've decided to go w/ RAID0 from now on
[23:59:00] mofu: its just TV . . .
[23:59:00] fdsd: hmm I cant see any differences in apperence with 0.19
[23:59:00] fdsd: interesting
