[00:00:00] kgbudz: hmm.. the yum install of .19 testing failed
[00:00:00] kgbudz: some gcc/libtool dep failed
[00:00:00] nero_: Say, if I update my channel listing with zap2it, (ex- I removed about 300 stations I dont care about) is there anything specifically I need to do to get them out of my channel listings? Or will the next mythdatabaseupdate take care of everything?
[00:00:00] kgbudz: bummer
[00:00:00] SqWaw (n=sqwaw@ool-4575b70f.dyn.optonline.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:00:00] Jasper: juski back allready?
[00:00:00] Juski: Jasper: caddies went a-beeping again
[00:00:00] Juski: 2 fans failed today
[00:00:00] Jasper: ai
[00:01:00] kristok: nero_: I think you have to run mythtvsetup again and remove them from there
[00:01:00] Jasper: not good ...too much dust ? :P
[00:01:00] Juski: too much continuous operation
[00:01:00] Juski: sunon crap
[00:01:00] Jasper: juski do you know if gentoo servers ban you for a few hours if you update too much?
[00:01:00] Jasper: I am suddenly unable to emerge :(
[00:01:00] Juski: Jasper: they frown on it, that's what they say
[00:01:00] Juski: but that's just syncing
[00:02:00] Jasper: hmm maybe the srver is really down then..but I can't believe that
[00:02:00] Jasper: I use ftp.snt.utwente.nl
[00:02:00] Jasper: it must be like one of the most stable servers there is..
[00:02:00] Juski: well, if you keep emerging world every 2 seconds... maybe they'll take exception to that
[00:02:00] Jasper: :p
[00:02:00] kgbudz (n=rez@c-24-30-92-78.hsd1.ga.comcast.net) Quit ()
[00:03:00] Jasper: juski
[00:03:00] Jasper: can you ping that server?>
[00:03:00] Juski: it's not there
[00:03:00] Jasper: very weird
[00:03:00] Juski: shouldn't you have more than one source for portage anyway?
[00:04:00] Juski: best practise & all that jazz
[00:04:00] Jasper: would be better yes..
[00:04:00] Juski: mine just uses <wherever>
[00:05:00] Juski: I get 150k – 250k download speed & that's enough
[00:05:00] Jasper: well juski it like 4 different servers
[00:05:00] Juski: download time is nothing compared to compiling time
[00:05:00] Jasper: but those are all utwente.nl
[00:05:00] Juski: I can't even remember how to check which I use
[00:05:00] k-man_: where can i find a list of compatible dvb-t cards with v4l?
[00:05:00] Juski: :-/
[00:06:00] Juski: k-man www.linuxtv.org
[00:06:00] Pitchin_uk: how often should i run mythfilldatabase – and what is it??
[00:06:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: please RTFM
[00:08:00] Jasper: Juski what's the use in adding extra server to make.conf when the connecting to a server never expires when emerging ?
[00:08:00] _Nero_ (n=Nero__@mdobossy.student.Princeton.EDU) Quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
[00:08:00] Juski: Jasper: timeouts are configurable, I thought
[00:09:00] mofu: Pitchin_uk: U.S. users should let the backend run mythfilldatabase automatically (no cron job) and let it auto-negotiate daily times with the zap2it servers, outside the U.S you should follow guideline based on what listings grabber you are using
[00:10:00] Juski: okay Pitchin_uk: seen as I'm in a good mood tonight.. mythfilldatabase is the program wot fills the programme guide
[00:10:00] lars-ut-away is now known as lars-ut
[00:10:00] Juski: uk users can run it every night or every few days. if you use the radiotimes grabber (tv_grab_uk_rt) you get up to 14 days worth of programme info
[00:10:00] Jasper: you get 14 days juski?
[00:11:00] Jasper: nice shit!
[00:11:00] Jasper: I only get like 5
[00:11:00] mofu: Pitchin_uk: assuming you are from the UK you probably need some type of xmltv grabber solution
[00:11:00] Juski: aye.. sure do
[00:11:00] Juski: tv_grab_uk_rt
[00:11:00] Pitchin_uk: i see – cos i finally have mythweb working and on backend status it say the the last time it ran it faild because of xmltv error
[00:11:00] Juski: well, Pitchin_uk you'd better run mythfilldatabase from a command line & paste the error into a pastebin
[00:12:00] mofu: I think if you let zap2it auto-negotiate your time you should get your full 13/14 day lists, otherwise they should restirct download based on current server load . . .
[00:12:00] Juski: or if it only ran last sunday, it'll have failed cos the radiotimes xmltv feed was down all day
[00:13:00] Pitchin_uk: juski – as su or just me??
[00:13:00] Juski: erm... usually as the mythtv user
[00:13:00] Pitchin_uk: nah it was a while ago
[00:14:00] dhofstra (n=dhofstra@c-67-177-112-29.hsd1.in.comcast.net) Quit (Connection timed out)
[00:14:00] dhofstra (n=dhofstra@c-67-177-112-29.hsd1.in.comcast.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:14:00] Juski: depends what user you ran mythtv-setup as
[00:14:00] Jasper: is zap2it getting overloaded?
[00:14:00] mofu: hey dhofstra – what up??
[00:14:00] Juski: Jasper: they cut back to three days worth recently, then went back to 13 days
[00:14:00] dhofstra: hey not much
[00:14:00] kristok (n=klk@attila.caltech.edu) Quit ("using sirc version 2.211+KSIRC/1.3.12")
[00:14:00] dhofstra: its been a long time since I've been in here
[00:15:00] Jasper: well zap2it is a great service..
[00:15:00] Jasper: I mean juski how long does it take you to grab the info?
[00:15:00] Juski: a good few minutes
[00:15:00] Jasper: info for 5 days and 21 channels takes me 2,5 hours
[00:15:00] Juski: not that long
[00:15:00] Pitchin_uk: juski – how long should it take??
[00:15:00] Jasper: well it does here :p
[00:15:00] dhofstra: mofu: just thinking about totally redoing all of my machines and then slapping 0.19 on them.. LOL in my minds eye it will only take a few days, but in reality it will take weeks
[00:15:00] Juski: Jasper: the kind peeps at radiotimes.com made an xmltv feed available, so there's no page scraping involved
[00:15:00] Jasper: it's prolly the grabber being more complex or something juski
[00:16:00] rogier (n=rogier@16-65-dsl.ipact.nl) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:16:00] mofu: Jasper: yeah, they really need people to spread the load out to take the peak load down. 0.19 has a new feature to auto-negotiate your download time w/ zap2it server . . . . use it!! drop your cron job and turn on 'run mythfilldatabase automatically' option
[00:16:00] fatmatt (n=fatmatt@c210-49-164-244.thoms1.vic.optusnet.com.au) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:16:00] dhofstra: i dont believe thier problem is actually with MYTH
[00:16:00] dasOp: some grabbers take a few seconds and some take hours. are some servers just slow?
[00:16:00] xris: dhofstra: but there are plenty of mythtv users who are part of the problem
[00:16:00] Achew22: Jasper: it says its missing Nvidea.ko
[00:16:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: how long it takes depends on 3 things...1: how many channels you have 2, internet connection speed and 3. how many shows there happen to be
[00:17:00] dhofstra: evidence the tread in -users where the guy didnt even know we were only grabbing 2 days... they have problems with other companies that use the service and grab every day...(prolly those windows bastards)
[00:17:00] mofu: dhofstra: yeah, know what you mean, I have 0.19 on a separate HD box to make sure its all cool before upgrading my production boxes
[00:17:00] Jasper: Nvidea.ko?
[00:17:00] Jasper: Achew22 when does it say that?
[00:17:00] mofu: production boX.
[00:17:00] dasOp: I have 40 chans and a 10day grab takes a few seconds
[00:18:00] Achew22: after it compiles
[00:18:00] dasOp: but I'm guessing zap2it is a tgad more loaded than swedb
[00:18:00] Jasper: with zap2it dasOp ?
[00:18:00] Juski: I have about 160 channels & it takes about 15 mins to do 14 days
[00:18:00] Jasper: hmm
[00:18:00] dasOp: no, swesb
[00:18:00] Jasper: why do mine 20 channels for 5 takes take 2,5 hours then..
[00:18:00] dasOp: db
[00:18:00] Juski: Jasper: what grabber?
[00:18:00] mofu: dhofstra: actually, anyone installing myth from a binary package is probably getting a cron job installed at the same time, all those jobs run the same hour . . . .
[00:19:00] Juski: it might be accessing html pages then having to scrape each page & convert it into xmltv format
[00:19:00] Jasper: prolly Juski
[00:19:00] dasOp: might be. swedb serves xml
[00:19:00] Jasper: tv_grab_nl
[00:19:00] dhofstra: mofu: ahh, i see.. didnt know that... well anyway i think that'll stop right quick
[00:19:00] CygnusX1 (n=CygnusX1@unaffiliated/cygnusx1) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:20:00] Jasper: juski the uk grabber gets xml?
[00:20:00] Jasper: doesn't need to scrape?
[00:20:00] mofu: dhofstra: setting up my new server w/ 2x300GB SATA RAID0, trying to figure out what cards to put in there
[00:21:00] Juski: Jasper: that's what I said
[00:21:00] mofu: btw, SLK3700BQE case is very nice and very quiet . . . .
[00:21:00] dhofstra: nice mofu... why raid 0 instead of LVM?
[00:21:00] Spacey__ (n=spacey@itsb067.itsnpt.com) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:21:00] Jasper: Achew22 does it compile allright?
[00:21:00] mofu: best performance
[00:21:00] Jasper: no errors Achew22 ?
[00:22:00] Spacey__ is now known as Spacey
[00:22:00] Spacey is now known as Spacey_
[00:22:00] Achew22: i think so
[00:22:00] Juski: raid is ok, but it doesn't stop your FS becoming corrupted & ballsing everything up
[00:22:00] dasOp: you can run lvm on top of a raid if you want
[00:22:00] Achew22: I have someone else who might be able to help — I'm going to exhaust him then talk to you...
[00:22:00] dasOp: lvm doesnt help that much with performance
[00:22:00] mofu: not really worried about expandability, I'll re-do the damn thing before I add drive space
[00:22:00] dasOp: even though you can interleave the PE allocation
[00:23:00] mofu: dasOp: hence, the RAID0 on the new server . . .
[00:23:00] mofu: lol
[00:23:00] Juski: raid also doesn't stop your HDD caddies' fans failing either
[00:23:00] dhofstra: mofu: I will be upgrading my server, so I was backing all my LVM stuff to other pc's when I found that my samba only allows 2gb transfers...LOL
[00:23:00] xpis: Achew22: did you ever figure out how to install nvidia drivers?
[00:23:00] mofu: Juski: sound's like experience talking . . .
[00:23:00] Achew22: still playing
[00:24:00] mofu: yeah, I have 16+GB movies on my HD box . . . .
[00:24:00] Juski: mofu: caught 2 fans failing tonight before they got so bad the caddies powered the disks down (phew)
[00:24:00] dhofstra: I am using 523Gig of my LVM ... this backup is taking FOREVER
[00:25:00] Achew22: xpis: it says it cant find cc? can I apt-get install cc?
[00:25:00] mofu: i think chances are almost as good that you can lose EVERYTHING on an LVM volume as a RAID0 array . . . anyway, its just TV . . . .
[00:25:00] dtm: dhofstra: are you using 100Mbps ethernet or what
[00:25:00] dhofstra: yeah 100mbps
[00:25:00] mofu: dhofstra: you couldn't thin that down at all??
[00:26:00] dhofstra: that is thinned down
[00:26:00] mofu: lol
[00:26:00] dasOp: raid0 is as failsafe as lvm (ie, not at all)
[00:26:00] mofu: yep
[00:26:00] Pitchin_uk: juski – ok the output at the moment is HASH(0x8d6c120)
[00:26:00] Pitchin_uk: guessing thats not right
[00:26:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: drop the whole lot into a pastebin
[00:26:00] dasOp: but with lvm, if you want to replace 1 drive, you can insert the new one, migrate the pe's and pull the old one
[00:26:00] Pitchin_uk: ok
[00:26:00] Juski: the hash just means it failed, more or less
[00:26:00] ZeroDiv (n=zero@ool-4351f8f4.dyn.optonline.net) Quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
[00:27:00] dasOp: hash means you're printing a reference
[00:27:00] dasOp: to a HASH :P
[00:27:00] Pitchin_uk: juski – http://pastebin.com/555245
[00:27:00] ** dasOp assumes this is perl **
[00:27:00] mofu: anyone in here tonight using QAM256 over Cable??
[00:28:00] dasOp: oh, it was a grabber
[00:28:00] ** dasOp stfu's **
[00:28:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: looks like none of your xmltv IDs match up
[00:28:00] Jasper: this is so annoying 2,5 hours of grabbing...and what does it grab...bob the builder, pokemon, gadget...omg
[00:29:00] Pitchin_uk: no idea
[00:29:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: shortly I'm gonna ask you to do a mysql thing...
[00:29:00] Pitchin_uk: +sure thing
[00:29:00] rsdvd (n=rsdvd@rsdvd.plus.com) Quit (No route to host)
[00:30:00] Jasper: NOOOOOOOOOOO
[00:30:00] Jasper: IT FAILED!!!!!!! THE GRABBER FAILED!
[00:30:00] Jasper: :(
[00:30:00] Criggie: Jasper: don't knock Bob... he's got a Big Hammer
[00:30:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: in a terminal session, log into your mysql server ... mysql
[00:31:00] Jasper: omg... is the grabber info cached Juski ?
[00:31:00] Jasper: tell me it's cached plz
[00:31:00] Kelerion: it ain't cached
[00:31:00] Pitchin_uk: yep
[00:31:00] Juski: might be something like mysql -u mythtv -p
[00:31:00] Juski: anyway... then do
[00:31:00] Juski: use mythconverg
[00:32:00] Juski: and then
[00:32:00] Juski: SELECT name, xmltvid FROM channel WHERE sourceid = 1;
[00:32:00] Juski: pop the result of that into a pastebin please
[00:32:00] Achew22: xpis: I think I have figured it out
[00:32:00] Achew22: but I don't know how to fix it
[00:32:00] Jasper: weee it cached
[00:33:00] Blammo[work]: As far as Raid — Take it from me... drives FAIL.. to run data you care about without some form of backup, is ASKING for trouble...
[00:33:00] Nikopol (n=mambo@i-195-137-15-67.freedom2surf.net) Quit ("Ex-Chat")
[00:34:00] mofu: Blammo[work]: the only thing that goes on the RAID array is TV, . . . .
[00:34:00] Pitchin_uk: http://pastebin.com/555251
[00:34:00] Juski: anyway, Pitchin_uk: here are my xmltv ids for the Freeview channels: http://pastebin.com/555250
[00:34:00] xpis: Achew22: it can't find cc?
[00:34:00] Achew22: yeah thats what I think
[00:34:00] xpis: Achew22: apt-get install gcc
[00:35:00] xpis: (why you don't have gcc installed I don't know)
[00:35:00] Achew22: it wants 3.4 and when I do that it installs 4.0
[00:35:00] xpis: Yep, that's a problem.
[00:35:00] Achew22: I have 3.4 installed but its not configured right
[00:35:00] xpis: Look for an updated version.
[00:35:00] xpis: (of the driver)
[00:35:00] Achew22: okay...
[00:36:00] Achew22: Jasper you lead me wrong
[00:36:00] xpis: GCC 4 has been out awhile.
[00:36:00] Kelerion: Juski.. btw.. did you know you can run a select statement from the command line? 'mysql -u root -p mythconverg -e "SELECT name, xmltvid FROM channel WHERE sourceid = 1;"
[00:36:00] Juski: right.. Pitchin_uk: what's happenned is – your xmltv ids seem to be wrong in the .xmltv file (freeview.xmltv). the channel table in the DB doesn't have any xmltv ids in it anyway
[00:36:00] Juski: Kelerion: I do now ;-)
[00:37:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: your Freeview.xmltv file should look a little something like this: http://pastebin.com/555255
[00:37:00] Juski: match em up ;-)
[00:37:00] Pitchin_uk: when i run it as root i get a different answer
[00:37:00] Juski: and then put the correct xmltv ids into the channel editor
[00:37:00] Juski: ahhh
[00:37:00] Kelerion: multiple config files
[00:38:00] Juski: aye
[00:38:00] xpis: Achew22: 32 or 64 bit?
[00:38:00] Achew22: 32 and I just upgraded it is the same error
[00:38:00] Jasper: qww
[00:38:00] Jasper: juski it was indeed my database...watching livetv works again
[00:38:00] xpis: http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_1.0-8178.html
[00:38:00] Juski: Jasper: cool :-)
[00:39:00] xpis: (Achew22: did you download that?)
[00:39:00] Achew22: the update?
[00:39:00] Pitchin_uk: http://pastebin.com/555260
[00:39:00] Juski: don't wanna sound patronising, Jasper, but you need a pat on the back... good work
[00:39:00] Jasper: :P
[00:39:00] Jasper: it sounds very patronising..
[00:39:00] Jasper: somehow
[00:39:00] xpis: Achew22: what driver are you trying to run?
[00:40:00] Achew22: nvidea
[00:40:00] scottder: Is ATrpms carrying 0.19 yet?
[00:40:00] Achew22: NVIDIA-Linux-x86–1.0-8178-pkg1.run
[00:40:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: what user is mythfilldatabase running as? if mythfilldatabase is set to run automatically, it'll be the same user mythbackend runs as
[00:40:00] Kelerion: line 18 of that pastebin gives the clue
[00:40:00] Pitchin_uk: my user account
[00:41:00] scottder: they have a new mpjpeg lib out...want smart really wants to uninstall mythtv now :)
[00:41:00] xpis: Achew22: and that won't work with gcc4?
[00:41:00] Achew22: nope
[00:42:00] Juski: yeah, but Pitchin_uk: your xmltv file is borked.. well maybe not borked but prolly won't work with the file in /usr/share/xmltv/tv_grab_uk_rt/channel_ids
[00:42:00] Pitchin_uk: my freeview.xmltv looks like yours
[00:42:00] Juski: except the xmltvids dont look like ones you'll find in the channel_ids file
[00:42:00] Kelerion: it ain't using *your* xmltv config file.. it's using roots
[00:43:00] Pitchin_uk: how do i solve that
[00:43:00] Juski: erm...
[00:43:00] Juski: first try copying /root/.mythtv/Freeview.xmltv to ~/.mythtv/.
[00:43:00] Night-Red (n=Night-Re@wnpgmb09dc1-92-70.dynamic.mts.net) has left #mythtv-users
[00:43:00] Achew22: xpis: nope doesnt work
[00:43:00] roz: does anyone have any HD experience?
[00:43:00] Achew22: I watched a HD tv once... does that count?
[00:44:00] ** Kelerion chuckles **
[00:44:00] Pitchin_uk: root doesn't use mythtv and doesn't have freeview.xmltv
[00:44:00] ** Juski chuckles **
[00:44:00] roz: Achew22: I've done that too!
[00:44:00] Jasper: oh christ how can I set my clock to use gmt +1 for date?
[00:44:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk... I think you ran mythtv-setup as root didn't you
[00:44:00] Achew22: actualy... I have never seen a HDTV image because we don't have any towers near us. but I have a HDTV ready tv
[00:44:00] Pitchin_uk: no
[00:45:00] Juski: so how come there's a /root/.mythtv/Freeview.xmltv and there's no ~/.mythtv/freeview.xmltv ?
[00:45:00] Kelerion: is mythfilldatabase setuid root by any chance?
[00:45:00] k-man_: are there any usb dvb-t tuners that work with linux?
[00:45:00] roz: but that doesn't help my blue screen using XV as output with an HDTV TS Stream
[00:45:00] diamon: My MythTV system is HD-ready, I just need the TV...
[00:45:00] kormoc: k-man_, I don't think there are any usb dvb tuners period.
[00:45:00] Pitchin_uk: definitely ran it as me
[00:45:00] Juski: kormoc: oh but there are;-)
[00:45:00] Achew22: xpis: you got any ideas?
[00:45:00] k-man_: kormoc, they don't exist?
[00:45:00] kormoc: Juski, ooh?
[00:46:00] Juski: yeh. see the DVB wiki @ www.linuxtv.org
[00:46:00] xpis: Achew22: trying to get gcc3.4 installed wouldn't be a good idea. It would probably be best to compile it on another machine.
[00:46:00] Juski: some even work in linux :-)
[00:46:00] k-man_: kormoc, i'm sure they exist
[00:46:00] k-man_: kormoc, just not sure they work with linux
[00:46:00] kormoc: k-man_, look at the same link Juski just gave me
[00:46:00] Juski: tempted to get one to see if I can record DVB-T on an xbox for a laugh
[00:47:00] kormoc: Juski, that's cool

[00:47:00] ** Juski can't believe nobody's done it yet... **
[00:47:00] roz: anyone have any ideas that would help my blue screen using XV as output with an HDTV TS Stream
[00:47:00] k-man_: thanks
[00:47:00] Juski: they'll work with USB 1.1 right? xbox has that... there are USB drivers for tuners in Linux... bada-bong
[00:48:00] mofu: roz, can you play an SD stream . . ?
[00:48:00] Achew22: alrigh — does anyone know if the kubuntu live cd can install?
[00:48:00] Juski: Achew22: don't fink so
[00:48:00] diamon: usb 1.1? That's a 1Mbit data rate; can't capture much through that I'd think.
[00:48:00] roz: Hey mofu was looking for you --- Yes I can No problem. I'll double check.
[00:48:00] Juski: diamon: worth a try
[00:48:00] Chutt: heh
[00:49:00] Chutt: fox has house running from 9:03 to 10:03 tonight
[00:49:00] diamon: Juski: True!
[00:49:00] mofu: diamon: usb1.1 = 11 Mbit/s . . .
[00:49:00] kormoc: diamon, 1.5 Mbps
[00:49:00] kormoc: or 12 Mbps
[00:49:00] kormoc: dependsing on the device
[00:49:00] diamon: Yeah, I meant 1Mb/sec, but just woke up.  :P
[00:49:00] Juski: anyway some UK channels are like 512kbits

[00:49:00] roz: ls
[00:49:00] mofu: 1.5 MB/s = 12 Mb/s
[00:49:00] Kelerion: I hate that.. I've just spent 3 hours on and off trying to compile ffmpeg.. and now it's done I can't remember what I wanted it for!
[00:50:00] roz: mofu: I just played a 320x240 mpg no problem via xv
[00:50:00] Juski: Kelerion: erm... wasn't it that cctv thing?
[00:50:00] Achew22: do they have a net inst version of kubuntu or ubuntu?
[00:50:00] Kelerion: nope.. sussed that one.. lol
[00:50:00] roz: mofu: SD works just fine in Myth using XV
[00:50:00] Juski: erm.. nuvexport?
[00:50:00] Jasper: hmm wtf
[00:50:00] Kelerion: yes! .. that was it.. thanks.. lol
[00:51:00] xpis: Achew22: you can probably compile it in knoppix
[00:51:00] roz: mofu: X11 error: BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation) ??,?% 4 0 27%
[00:51:00] Jasper: huh? juski .....everything worked...and after I reboot....it stops working?
[00:51:00] roz: mofu: thats the error I get when I try to play an HD stream
[00:51:00] Juski: how you doing there, Pitchin_uk?
[00:51:00] Kelerion: nope nope.. you were right first time.. was still on the cctv thing.. lol
[00:51:00] Achew22: xpis: i'm angry and I just want to install again...
[00:52:00] mofu: roz: what video card??
[00:52:00] Juski: Jasper: dear oh dear.. wtf did you reboot for? :-P
[00:52:00] Jasper: had to try if ntpd started at boot
[00:52:00] Pitchin_uk: i was just re running through the mythtv setup
[00:52:00] Jasper: how can it stop working at reboot?
[00:52:00] Juski: quite easy
[00:52:00] roz: mofu: nVidia Corporation NV11GL [Quadro2 MXR/EX] 32 MB
[00:53:00] roz: mofu: to be honest, a Geforce2 MX 32 MB modded to be a Quadro2.
[00:53:00] mofu: roz, not sure that's enough card . . .
[00:53:00] Pitchin_uk: but when i do a channel scan i get failed to open the card
[00:53:00] Jasper: lol juski I found the problem
[00:53:00] Juski: I have a vague recollection of having to edit the mythbackend startup script to make sure mysql was running last time I installed
[00:53:00] diamon: So, fishing one last time... I'm looking to take the excuse of Myth 0.19 to go and upgrade my FC3 system to FC4, but that'll give me a different major version (4.x) if MySQL. Someone mentioned once that there was some kind of problem doing that. Anyone heard that?
[00:54:00] mofu: roz, PCI or AGP?
[00:54:00] roz: mofu: Higher-end Geforce (more memory?) required for higher-res XV? AGP
[00:54:00] dasOp: 4.x works grand, 5.0 used to have issues
[00:54:00] Jasper: juski if I start mythbackend at boot....it runs the backend...but I cna't watch livetv...then when I stop mythbackend...and restart it...with the same user mythfronted can watch live tv again
[00:54:00] Jasper: weird?
[00:54:00] diamon: roz: Spiff! I modded my 9800Pro to be a 9800XT, turned out I had the right core and memory.
[00:54:00] Jasper: this is all a permission issue I guess
[00:55:00] Juski: Jasper: I suspect that mythbackend is missing a vital service when it first starts
[00:55:00] Jasper: I'm gonna reboot again
[00:55:00] Jasper: and see what it says in the log
[00:55:00] Juski: like it won't start up if mysql isn't running (and stuff)
[00:55:00] Pitchin_uk: juski – got it mythbackend was running
[00:55:00] Juski: heh
[00:55:00] roz: mofu what Kind of card are you running
[00:56:00] mofu: FX5200 . . .
[00:56:00] Pitchin_uk: just about to do a channel scan
[00:56:00] Pitchin_uk: need to remember all my settings for my local transmitter
[00:56:00] ** scottder is still trying to figure out why s-video is so crappy on his FX5200 **
[00:56:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: you don't need to do that
[00:57:00] Yellow-Snow (n=none@ip70-172-236-166.br.br.cox.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:57:00] Jasper: Juski I got no errors in mythbackend log
[00:57:00] Yellow-Snow: http://www.metku.net/index.html?sect=view& . . . pc/index_eng
[00:57:00] mofu: roz, not certain, but you probably want at least MX4 or better . . . .
[00:57:00] Chutt: roz, a gf2 won't do hd.
[00:58:00] Juski: Jasper: I bet if you set mythbackend not to start in the default runlevel, but start it sometime after booting all will be well
[00:58:00] roz: I was looking at an FX5200, they're about ohhhhh $35
[00:58:00] scottder: Of course maybe the crappy svideo output will nudge my wife into Oking an LCD tv
[00:59:00] Jasper: hmm Juski it starts as mythtv-users
[00:59:00] Jasper: user
[00:59:00] Jasper: and when I shut it down and start it again
[00:59:00] Jasper: it's as root
[00:59:00] Jasper: so it has more permissions...can't that be the problem?
[00:59:00] mofu: roz, you have AGP on that board I hope??
[00:59:00] Yellow-Snow: anyone see that case?
[00:59:00] Juski: 1st 3 lines of my script go: depend() {
[00:59:00] Juski: need net
[00:59:00] Juski: use mysql
[01:00:00] roz: mofu: yes Its an AGP GF2... I have an Athlon 1600....
[01:00:00] Juski: since I added the last bit – no more problems starting mythbackend
[01:00:00] Pitchin_uk: juski – i think i remember from last time it didn't work unless i found the settings
[01:00:00] roz: mofu: Processor-wise I should be ok.
[01:00:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: got a channels.conf from a dvb scan handy? that's where you get the settings
[01:00:00] mofu: roz, you might be OK w/ XvMC, but not with Xv
[01:00:00] Pitchin_uk: juski – its now doing a channel scan
[01:00:00] Pitchin_uk: yeah i got one from linux tv apps
[01:01:00] roz: mofu: what is xvmc?
[01:01:00] Jasper: I think the mythtv user should have more permissions
[01:01:00] xpis: roz: I think me means xvnc
[01:01:00] mofu: roz, pretty much full hardware mpeg2 decoding on nvidia cards . .
[01:01:00] Pitchin_uk: juski – should i create a mythtv user for my machine – as it is my main machine as well i have just been using my account
[01:01:00] mofu: no, its xvMc
[01:02:00] xris: Pitchin_uk: you're fine
[01:02:00] scottder: I watch standard def stuff on my 1ghz PIII fine using Xv
[01:02:00] roz: mofu: am I OK w/ HD on a Radeon 9600?
[01:02:00] Pitchin_uk: juski – channel scan all done
[01:02:00] xris: mofu: no real change using xvmc for me.. was actually worse for some things.
[01:02:00] mofu: scottder: the discussion is HD, 1920x1080i, your P3 do that??
[01:02:00] kormoc: roz, ati cards do not support Xvmc
[01:03:00] xris: roz: what speed proc?
[01:03:00] scottder: Ah no then :)
[01:03:00] Pitchin_uk: juski – whats next
[01:03:00] Juski: erm...
[01:03:00] Juski: right.. you scanned...
[01:03:00] Pitchin_uk: yep
[01:03:00] Juski: now you need to assign the card a video source
[01:03:00] Pitchin_uk: ok
[01:03:00] roz: but ATI supports regular XV
[01:03:00] Mobleman (n=mig@50A2CD82.flatrate.dk) Quit ()
[01:04:00] roz: will an ATI 9600 do HD though?
[01:04:00] Juski: go in there, select tv_grab_uk_rt, then select the 'next' button
[01:04:00] mofu: I know someone running XP2400+/Nvidia/XvMC will run HD, but not with Xv
[01:04:00] Juski: you'll then see a progress bar stuck at 50%... alt-tab or whatever to the terminal you ran mythtv-setup from
[01:04:00] Pitchin_uk: juski – i already have the card and the video source and the input all setup with defaults
[01:04:00] Juski: ok then... go out of mythtv-setup
[01:04:00] roz: I have an Athlon XP 1600 w/ a GeForce2 and an a Duron 1300 w/ an ATI Radeon 9600
[01:05:00] Pitchin_uk: ok
[01:05:00] Juski: then in a terminal do mythfilldatabase --configure
[01:05:00] xris: roz: neither of those will play HD
[01:05:00] roz: neither card? or will I also be CPU limited?
[01:05:00] xris: bare minimum for HD is 2Ghz
[01:05:00] mofu: roz: I doubt either system will handle a full 1080 stream . . . even w/ a video card upgrade
[01:05:00] Juski: oh shat.. that won't work
[01:05:00] Achew22: is there a way to have xorg rescan your cards?
[01:05:00] xris: I have enough trouble on my 3G p4 with a 5800
[01:05:00] Pitchin_uk: yep just found that
[01:06:00] xris: Achew22: X -configure
[01:06:00] Achew22: bash command x not found
[01:06:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: tv_grab_uk_rt --configure
[01:06:00] mofu: Achew22: what distro?
[01:06:00] Achew22: ubuntu
[01:06:00] nero_ (n=nero@mdobossy.student.Princeton.EDU) Quit ("Leaving")
[01:06:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: then answer a bunch of questions about which channels you want
[01:06:00] mofu: in debian/ubunto dkpg-reconfigure xserver-xorg (or something close)
[01:07:00] roz: well... Now its time to start considering a system upgrade!
[01:07:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: type in a basic name like bbc1 – you'll then be shown a list of alternatives... pick the one for your region
[01:07:00] Achew22: anyone definitive on the command?
[01:08:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: it does kinda fuzzy searches so it'll sometimes need a better hint (or no hint)
[01:08:00] xris: Achew22: X, not x
[01:08:00] Achew22: ohh thats different
[01:08:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: go thru all that doing all your channels then enter . to quit out
[01:08:00] Pitchin_uk: juski – i just went through a bunch of questions saying which channels i wanted
[01:08:00] xris: and you need to be in console mode when you run it
[01:08:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: you'll then have a file called .xmltv
[01:09:00] Pitchin_uk: just a text list though
[01:09:00] mofu: Achew22: that should be right
[01:09:00] Achew22: yeah
[01:09:00] Achew22: but it errored...
[01:09:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: copy that file to freeview.xmltv
[01:09:00] mofu: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:09:00] Achew22: "missing output drivers
[01:09:00] mofu: fubar
[01:10:00] Achew22: its detecting the PVR-250 card i think
[01:10:00] mofu: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg-core  ???
[01:10:00] stoffel (n=sfr@p508151A4.dip.t-dialin.net) Quit (Remote closed the connection)
[01:10:00] Pitchin_uk: juski – where does it copy the file
[01:10:00] Achew22: dpkg-reconfgure isn't found
[01:11:00] Achew22: bash: dpkg-reconfigure: command not found
[01:11:00] mofu: needs an 'i'
[01:11:00] Pitchin_uk: in .mythtv i have a freeview.xmltv and a vs1/xmltv
[01:11:00] mofu: Achew22: are you root??
[01:11:00] Pitchin_uk: .xmltv even
[01:11:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: oopsie... there'sa directory called .xmltv
[01:11:00] mofu: sudo . . . .
[01:11:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: in there will be a file called tv_grab_uk_rt.conf
[01:11:00] Achew22: WHA!?!?!
[01:11:00] Achew22: why would that make it different
[01:11:00] Achew22: i'm very confused
[01:12:00] mofu: obviously,
[01:12:00] Achew22: yeah...
[01:12:00] Pitchin_uk: so the conf is bacically just a channel picker
[01:12:00] mofu: you can't configure packages if your not root
[01:12:00] Achew22: shh... i'm not looking at this logicly
[01:12:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: copy _that_ file to freeview.xmltv in /root/.mythtv
[01:12:00] Kelerion: if I stream a file to an windows share.. and look at that file listing in windows.. the file keeps getting bigger.. if I do the same to an nfs or samba share.. it updates in chunks after some period of time.. why would it do that?
[01:13:00] Juski: this is what happens, btw when you run the grabber configurator from mythtv-setup
[01:13:00] Achew22: mofu it says "no screens found"
[01:13:00] Pitchin_uk: ok im there
[01:13:00] Pitchin_uk: does it matter that i accepted all the channels
[01:13:00] Juski: Kelerion: no idea.. refresh it more often & you'll see a more gradual change?
[01:13:00] mofu: Achew22: are you in an X session now??
[01:14:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: not much
[01:14:00] Pitchin_uk: its in root/.mythtv
[01:14:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: anyway now you need to put each xmltvid into the channel editor
[01:14:00] Achew22: mofu: I typed sudo X
[01:14:00] Pitchin_uk: how do i do that
[01:14:00] mofu: Achew22: did I once tell you to type 'X"
[01:14:00] Kelerion: nope.. I can keep freshing or "ls"'ing.. and the file stays the same time for a while.. then suddenly jumps in size as if it's got a new chunk of data
[01:15:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: in the channel editor, or with your favourite mysql mangler
[01:15:00] Achew22: mofu its caps
[01:15:00] roz: mofu: do you reccommend Athlon 64? or stay away?
[01:15:00] Pitchin_uk: the channel editor in myth setup
[01:15:00] Juski: Kelerion: must be something sync related
[01:15:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: yup
[01:15:00] mofu: Achew22: sudo dkpg-reconfigure xserver-xorg-core
[01:15:00] Juski: or phpmyadmin, or webmin...
[01:15:00] Kelerion: I was thinking the same.. will look at the nfs options
[01:15:00] Klatuu: heh
[01:15:00] Pitchin_uk: run as me or root
[01:15:00] rtsai1111: Kelerion: filesystem caching
[01:15:00] Klatuu: this is too recursive
[01:16:00] Achew22: dkpg-reconfigure: command not found
[01:16:00] cosmo_ (n=cosmo@64.119.43.102) Quit (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
[01:16:00] Achew22: i'm in root
[01:16:00] rtsai1111: Kelerion: the same thing will happen if you try writing something locally and watch "iostat" or something
[01:16:00] Klatuu: I am using vnc to connect to my home system and then vnc inside the vnc session to connect to my myth box
[01:16:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: same user you initially ran mythtv-setup as
[01:16:00] mofu: roz: Athlon64 is probably more future proof, but its semi-beta in terms of linux at this point
[01:16:00] Pitchin_uk: ok me
[01:16:00] Achew22: mofu: dkpg-reconfigure: command not found
[01:16:00] Achew22: mofu: i'm in root
[01:17:00] Kelerion: rtsai1111: is there some way to reduce the caching in nfs?
[01:17:00] Pitchin_uk: right im in the channel editor
[01:17:00] mofu: Achew22: not sure why you don't have dpkg on your Ubuntu box, apt-get install dpkg
[01:17:00] roz: mofu: are you a gentoo user?
[01:17:00] Achew22: mofu: its already installed
[01:17:00] mofu: roz: no, Debian/Ubuntu
[01:17:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: for each channel in turn, select each one & paste the correct xmltv ID into the xmltvid field
[01:17:00] kormoc: Kelerion, of course you can, man nfs
[01:18:00] mofu: Achew22: sorry, can't help
[01:18:00] Achew22: sad panda
[01:18:00] Pitchin_uk: ok – this could take a while
[01:18:00] roz: mofu: I guess I live in the beta world with gentoo
[01:18:00] Kelerion: ahhh.. positive news.. thats what I like to hear.. *goes to read*
[01:18:00] Juski: any UK users know if there's a doc for this? I don't ever remember seeing one, I just worked it out
[01:18:00] rtsai1111: Kelerion: I think it's a kernel thing, not a NFS thing; e.g., if you "cp bigfile newname", you'll see the same thing happen, and NFS isn't even in the picture
[01:18:00] mofu: back in a bit . . .
[01:18:00] rtsai1111: all the writes get batched up and written out all at once for efficiency
[01:19:00] kormoc: Kelerion, ooh, if you do mean kernel caching, the answer is I don't think you can, but why would you want to?
[01:19:00] rtsai1111: "NFS caching" generally refers to client-side caching.
[01:19:00] Juski: I've always assumed I ended up having to work it out because I'd done it wrong in the 1st place
[01:20:00] Achew22: mofu: can you help me install my ATI drivers?
[01:20:00] ** Juski remembers when tv_grab_uk_rt --configure would crash if you have it a channel name that didn't exist **
[01:20:00] Juski: Achew22: didn't I see someone tell you to install nvidia drivers earlier?
[01:21:00] Kelerion: kormoc: live streaming a file to an nfs share.. I want the data on that stored file to be as nearly realtime as possible
[01:21:00] Achew22: yeah, it was halucinating NVidea stuff
[01:21:00] kormoc: Kelerion, ahh... hrm.
[01:21:00] Achew22: I actualy have ATI and I looked in the box
[01:21:00] Juski: ahh.. that would bork stuff
[01:21:00] Kelerion: it ain't that important.. I was just curious :)
[01:21:00] Jasper: hmm
[01:21:00] kormoc: Kelerion, it's better to stream from a nfs share... i.e. have the client initiate the stream.
[01:22:00] ** Juski thought for one horrible moment someone was trying to do one over on Achew22 **
[01:22:00] Achew22: that would be a sweet trick
[01:22:00] ** Achew22 chuckles **
[01:23:00] xpis: Achew22: are you talking about the same box? Do you have two video cards?
[01:23:00] Juski: get a noob in... mk2fs /dev/hda3 to install mythtv
[01:23:00] Achew22: it says I have an ATI Radion 7000 (which is builtinto the board)
[01:23:00] Jasper: Juski could it be a problem of the user mythtv not having enough rights running the backend...able to start the backend but not get too something important ?
[01:23:00] Achew22: it HAD 2 cards...
[01:23:00] Kelerion: Juski: yer cruel.. but it'd be funny.. :)
[01:23:00] Achew22: the radeon which was built in and the nvidea that was pci and I took it out
[01:23:00] mofu: Achew22: step1, order Nvidia Card, step2, throw ATI card in garbage
[01:23:00] xpis: Achew22: an ATI radion built into a NForce2 board?
[01:23:00] Jasper: LOL Achew22 you have a ATI CARD?
[01:23:00] Achew22: I don'y know any more
[01:23:00] ** kormoc blinks **
[01:23:00] ** Achew22 = confused **
[01:24:00] xpis: Achew22: lspci showed a geforce4... I'm very confused.
[01:24:00] kormoc: Achew22, you have quite the board.
[01:24:00] Achew22: its built into the board
[01:24:00] Jasper: Achew22 did you know what board you had when you were in windows?
[01:24:00] xpis: I think he has a chameleon board.
[01:24:00] Achew22: whatever it is
[01:24:00] mofu: Achew22: what motherboard??
[01:24:00] kormoc: Achew22, a nvidia board would have a nvidia card onboard
[01:24:00] ** Kelerion chuckles **
[01:24:00] Juski: Jasper: try adding the line 'use mysql' in /etc/init.d/mythbackend under the 'need net' line

[01:24:00] Pitchin_uk: juski – i take it i dont need the word channel before the id
[01:24:00] Achew22: wow — I feel honored
[01:24:00] Juski: don't break the braces btw ;-)
[01:25:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: nope
[01:25:00] xpis: Achew22: do lspci again
[01:25:00] xpis: Achew22: and make sure you do it on the correct computer.
[01:25:00] Juski: people hadn't heard of ATI video on nforce boards? or vice-versa... perverse, but very real
[01:25:00] kormoc: Juski, saywhat?
[01:25:00] xpis: Juski: lspci showed a geforce4
[01:25:00] mofu: Juski: example please . . .
[01:26:00] Jasper: will try it tomorrow Juski, allready powered down the system :p was getting too late
[01:26:00] Achew22: okay -xpis is right
[01:26:00] Achew22: ati is the pci card nvidia is built in
[01:26:00] kormoc: Achew22, just remove the ati card
[01:26:00] Achew22: done

[01:26:00] Jasper: ah you got a onboard chip
[01:26:00] Jasper: P
[01:26:00] Achew22: its on my coffee table
[01:26:00] Juski: one of my mates has a system with ATI video & nforce chipset, honest
[01:26:00] mofu: Jasper: yeah, nforce motherboard = Nvidia On-board video
[01:27:00] kormoc: Juski, only a agp/pci ati card, not a onboard ati chipset
[01:27:00] kormoc: Achew22, so install the nvidia driver
[01:27:00] Juski: he said onboard ATI
[01:27:00] kormoc: Juski, he's pulling your leg
[01:27:00] Achew22: you weren't here for htis delema were you kormoc
[01:27:00] Juski: coulda been wrong. sounded wrong. prolly is wrong
[01:27:00] kormoc: Achew22, no?
[01:28:00] mofu: Achew22: you still running 2.6.12–9 Ubuntu kernel??
[01:28:00] Achew22: kernel was compiled with 3.4 so I have to build with 3.4 right? well I cant get that to go — I can get 4.0 to work
[01:28:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: anyhow – that should get you filling the DB ...
[01:28:00] Jasper: so achew .....you must have been able to install the Nvidia driver then? since you also have a nvidia chip?
[01:28:00] Achew22: 2.6.12-9-k7
[01:28:00] Pitchin_uk: juski – also what happens if there is a channel but no id
[01:28:00] kormoc: Achew22, there is no precompiled nvidia kernel module for your kernel?
[01:28:00] Achew22: nope
[01:28:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: dont worry about that for now
[01:28:00] Achew22: no precompiled
[01:29:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: btw which channel?
[01:29:00] mofu: is it a custom kernel or a packaged kernel??
[01:29:00] kormoc: Achew22, welp, you're just gonna have to compile your own kernel with gcc 4.0 then
[01:29:00] Achew22: if I reboot and change the grub config to load 2.6.12–9 not 2.6.12-9-k7
[01:29:00] kormoc: Achew22, but that's not really recommended
[01:29:00] Achew22: will tha twork?
[01:29:00] kormoc: Achew22, it might, worth a try
[01:29:00] Achew22: okay ... brb

[01:31:00] Juski: no guide for that
[01:31:00] Pitchin_uk: ok cool
[01:31:00] Achew22: okay 2.6.12–9 wasn't an option but 2.6.12-10-k7
[01:31:00] Juski: set it to invisible btw
[01:31:00] Juski: any channels you don't want, set em to invisible
[01:31:00] Pitchin_uk: ok
[01:32:00] Juski: oh fark.. just remembered you can use mythweb to enter xmltvids for channels now
[01:32:00] Jasper: hmm juski what is the use mysql actually for?
[01:32:00] Jasper: it won't start until mysql is loaded?
[01:32:00] Achew22: okay — uname -r now returns 2.6.12-10-k7
[01:32:00] Juski: yup
[01:33:00] Juski: Jasper: I had a very similar problem to yours – it won't harm anything if that isn't the problem but it'll help if it is ;-)
[01:33:00] Jasper: yeah, was just wondering
[01:33:00] Pitchin_uk: juski – is that easier
[01:33:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: much easier to use mythweb for that
[01:33:00] Achew22: Otherwise, select "Yes" to abort installation, set the CC environment variable to the name of the compiler used to compile your kernel, and restart installation. Abort now?
[01:34:00] Juski: I'm not on 0.19 yet and I just forgot
[01:34:00] Achew22: how do I "set the CC environment variable"
[01:34:00] kormoc: Achew22, it should automatically when gcc is installed
[01:34:00] Achew22: yeah remember its set to 4.0
[01:34:00] kormoc: Achew22, or CC=/path/to/gcc ./nvidia-driver-install-file
[01:34:00] Achew22: i'm going to change it to 3.4 then change it to 4.0 later
[01:35:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: another tip: if you delete a Freeview channel, it'll keep re-appearing some time later

[01:35:00] Juski: hence the need to set channels to invisible ;-)
[01:35:00] Achew22: don'y question my thinking i'm crazy
[01:35:00] kormoc: Achew22, remember, gcc 4.0 is not considered stable
[01:35:00] Achew22: I want to go to 3.4
[01:35:00] Achew22: the stable one
[01:35:00] Jasper: why did you go to 4.0 in the first place?
[01:35:00] Achew22: I didn't mean to?
[01:36:00] Jasper: does ubuntu have like stable/unstable/testing like debian (I never saw it)
[01:36:00] Juski: Jasper: kind of
[01:36:00] Jasper: how can Achew22 end up with the unstable release then?
[01:36:00] Juski: pretty easy if you don't know what you're doing ;-)
[01:36:00] Jasper: Achew22 did you install unstable or testing? if so why?

[01:39:00] Jasper: isn't it possible to downgrade back to stable Juski ?
[01:39:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: in the last SVN I played with, there's a field to enter the xmltv ids

[01:39:00] Juski: more guarantee of working too
[01:39:00] Jasper: yup
[01:39:00] Pitchin_uk: there is freq id field
[01:40:00] Jasper: so Achew22 you didn't have much installed yet right?
[01:40:00] Pitchin_uk: but its not very big
[01:40:00] Jasper: at least that's what I figure since you don't have your videodevice installed yet
[01:40:00] Juski: Pitchin_uk: it's near the freqid field IIRC

[01:43:00] Pitchin_uk: juski – doesn't seem to be there any way i have to hit the sack

[01:48:00] briand: xpis: yes, apparently.
[01:48:00] xpis: briand: so.. will 0.19 compile now?
[01:48:00] briand: the fonts are a little wacky now, in the 18.1 display — I imagine that's because of the new fontlib that installed during the yum update
[01:49:00] xpis: Is freetype properly installed and configured?
[01:49:00] briand: xpis: that's my second task... first, I need to reinstall lirc under the new kernel (Myth works, but only via my wireless keyboard)
[01:50:00] briand: dunno about that.. it's installed via the 'yum update' and/or 'yum install qt-devel' ... haven't done anything to "configure" it...
[01:50:00] xpis: It's probably that some fonts got lost.
[01:51:00] briand: yeah, i vaguely remember a page somewhere saying that the fonts look crummy, and download/install <<these>> fonts... which I did way back when. I guess I'll need to find that page and do that again, too.

[02:42:00] sanmarcos: sure
[02:42:00] xpis: The mythtv protocol isn't standardized in any way.. so it would be a monumental task.
[02:42:00] sanmarcos: that is a bad coding practice
[02:42:00] sanmarcos: everything should be abstract
[02:43:00] xpis: mythtv isn't done that way. It's made as one huge codebase that incorporates everything – including the kitchen sink.

[02:44:00] sanmarcos: that is 10mbytes
[02:44:00] dtm: sanmarcos: or look at your hub/switch and see if the lights correspond with a speed.
[02:44:00] Gumby: someone mentioned in here that its possible to save a livetv as a recorded program. is this true and if so how does select the option to save it?

[02:46:00] xpis: Getting mythtv to work on windows would almost certainly require a complete rewrite of winmyth to use code from libmyth.
[02:46:00] sanmarcos: their wrtg45 based on linux is extremely popualqar

[02:47:00] dtm: sanmarcos: you're just babbling, ignoramus ignoramus :)
[02:48:00] briand: dtm: The same way it's possible that they stamp them "conforms to FCC Type 15 specifications for incidental radiators" and yet it tears the hell out of nearby FM and amateur reception.
[02:49:00] xpis: Getting winmyth to work on all mythtv versions would require an almost wine like approach in using libmythtv code.
[02:49:00] dtm: briand: you're talking about wifi cards and APs?
[02:49:00] briand: ...doesn't even have to be moving packets.. just power it up, and the hashing begins
[02:49:00] dtm: briand: i hadn't heard about that in particular
[02:49:00] sanmarcos: I like hash
[02:49:00] briand: dtm: no, standard 10/100-base-T wired network
[02:49:00] dtm: whaaaa?!! amazing
[02:49:00] briand: I replaced my linksys routers with NetGear equipment. no more noise.
[02:50:00] sanmarcos: linksys works fine for me, although netgear seems a second choice
[02:50:00] briand: and my 2-meter and HF tranceivers are less than 5 feet from the router.
[02:50:00] briand: sanmarcos: fine. glad it works for you.

[02:52:00] sanmarcos: i would love to go offtopic in an abstract obscure and totally freaky convo, but back to mythtv, the mpeg4 encoder it encodes to standar mpeg4? so then it can be converted to xvid, divx
[02:52:00] sanmarcos: xpis, yeah I will once the sun turns nova
[02:53:00] xpis: sanmarcos: it encodes to msmpeg4
[02:53:00] sanmarcos: xpis, as much as I love developement, I cant stand QT and besides I just have basic experiences with C++
[02:53:00] sanmarcos: I would guess Myth is entirely written in C++
[02:53:00] xpis: sanmarcos: this can be transcoded to smaller xvid files later, for transfer elsewhere.
[02:53:00] xpis: sanmarcos: yes, it's qt and c++.
[02:54:00] sanmarcos: xpis, ok, ill have to check that out, since I dont need mpeg2 quality, although it is nice that some cards (haupp 350) do it on the card itself
[02:54:00] sanmarcos: mencoder is great for converting files anyways
[02:55:00] xpis: sanmarcos: mythtv currently can't do mpeg2 software encoding – as it is not implemented. (although ffmpeg supports it)
[02:55:00] sanmarcos: xpis, ah.. have you tried freevo?
[02:55:00] sanmarcos: or has anybody tried it, does it even compare to myth?
[02:56:00] xpis: sanmarcos: no, I haven't tried freevo... which doesn't even come close in features to mythtv.
[02:57:00] xpis: sanmarcos: freevo uses mencoder to encode video from framegrabbers, so it supports any formats/encoding options that mencoder does.
[02:57:00] sanmarcos: basically everything out there if setup with the right codecs
[02:58:00] sanmarcos: anyways, Id yet have to try enconding with the "high quality" low quality, live tv presets, I dont even know what they mean
[02:58:00] xpis: You will probably want to adjust the settings to use mpeg4 rather than the default mjpeg, which results in very large files.
[02:58:00] Gumby: someone mentioned in here that its possible to save a livetv as a recorded program. is this true and if so how does select the option to save it?
[02:59:00] xpis: Gumby: are you using 0.19?
[02:59:00] Gumby: xpis: yes
[02:59:00] xpis: Gumby: then livetv recordings are already saved programs
[02:59:00] xpis: Gumby: set your filter options (using the M key iirc) to display them in your watch recordings menu.
[03:00:00] Gumby: xpis: any idea what the name of that option is in the key settings? All mine are changed from the defaults so I cant just look for "m" in mythweb keybindings
[03:02:00] sanmarcos: is there a list of the keybindings of the livetv mode?

[03:27:00] sanmarcos: simcop2387, I dont know, what is your theory?
[03:28:00] xpis: simcop2387: or.. just watch your TV in 1.3x (or so) speed
[03:29:00] sanmarcos: yeah, skip the crap parts
[03:29:00] xpis: simcop2387: no, just speed the whole thing up
[03:29:00] simcop2387: xpis: i already watch it without commercials and at 2x
[03:29:00] xpis: simcop2387: so you see the entire show – at a slightly higher speed.
[03:30:00] simcop2387: lets see ~3x faster (22min – commercials, 11min @ 2x, giving 11/30)
[03:30:00] xpis: simcop2387: alternatively, you could just orbit the earth in a (very large) orbit nearing the speed of light.
[03:31:00] simcop2387: xpis: easier to do it that to a black hole
[03:31:00] xpis: simcop2387: but those are so hard to get to.
[03:31:00] simcop2387: xpis: but if you can go near the speed of light it wouldn't be that hard
[03:31:00] xpis: simcop2387: and once you've gotten near one, it would take quite a bit of energy to escape.
[03:32:00] simcop2387: who says i want to escape?

[03:33:00] simcop2387: unless history remembers it
[03:33:00] xpis: You won't be dead to people far away from the black hole.
[03:35:00] xpis: anyway... since approaching the speed of light is not an option... you will just have to speed up the video.
[03:36:00] xpis: MythRelativity is still in heavy development, and shouldn't be relied upon. Bugs include annihilation and black hole creation.

[04:57:00] Kyler: Chutt: Thanks for the help. That did it. I should send that to someone...
[04:57:00] gpx1000: I'd like to connect mythphone to Asterisk on the localhost. Can someone help me with this? Or point me in the direction of a resource to read up on it?

[05:08:00] dmachi: anyone here know of a work around for the freeze when switching ring buffers with a pvr-350 in 0.19 ?
[05:14:00] ShockValue: is it possible to turn off the large tv buffer? my wife likes to surf around the channels, and it takes a long time due to this (i assume its the buffering anyway)
[05:18:00] MooingLemur (n=troy@shells200.pinchaser.com) Quit (Excess Flood)
[05:18:00] kormoc: ShockValue, it's more the lag in the tuner change and the buffering to encode the video
[05:18:00] kormoc: ShockValue, channel changing will always have a delay
[05:20:00] xris: ShockValue: just be glad you don't have to wait for both mythtv *and* a satellite receiver...
[05:20:00] ShockValue: i do....
[05:20:00] xris: takes me like 5–8 seconds to change channels
[05:20:00] xris: I don't bother with livetv
[05:20:00] ShockValue: takes like 15 seconds to start live tv, and 5+ to change channels
[05:20:00] kormoc: ShockValue, that's normal, aye
[05:21:00] kormoc: at least for me

[05:22:00] ShockValue: all i know is that 0.18 -> 0.19 added at least 5 seconds on startup, and a couple more per channel change
[05:22:00] kormoc: ooh?
[05:22:00] kormoc: it cut time for myself
[05:22:00] ole_schoola: me too
[05:22:00] ole_schoola: cut time
[05:22:00] ShockValue: i assumed it was because of the new recording features
[05:23:00] ole_schoola: nah, the bits were flyin down the wire in either case
[05:23:00] ShockValue: now when i change channels, i see the "myth osd" for 3 seconds, and /then/ it changes the channels on my satelite box
[05:24:00] xris: ShockValue: don't think the new recording features added anything.
[05:24:00] xris: there are some lingering prebuffering pause issues, though.
[05:24:00] ole_schoola: ShockValue: sounds more like your sat box takes 3 secs to get in gear
[05:25:00] xris: but they're supposedly fairly rare
[05:26:00] ** xris really likes the new mpeg2cut functionality **
[05:26:00] xris: I think I can probably just remove it from nuvexport now.
[05:26:00] ShockValue: ole_schoola – perhaps, but i didnt change anything on the channel script nor has my box received any new updates..
[05:27:00] ShockValue: seems to me like myth is taking longer to call the channel change script maybe?
[05:28:00] ole_schoola: hmmm, i'm prolly blaming the unknown — i only have ATSC and analog/QAM cable right now
[05:29:00] Chutt: xris, that's working well for you, then?
[05:31:00] xris: Chutt: yeah, so far
[05:31:00] xris: I couldn't find the old checkbox for keeping the pre-cut files, so I just started testing.

[05:36:00] Chutt: myth got me my job
[05:36:00] Chutt: so it's made me... uh, quite a lot
[05:36:00] xris: and this channel got kormoc his job.
[05:36:00] scott: The controller I bought was 500 dollars
[05:36:00] kormoc: well, I guess I could say that it also got me my job as well

[05:39:00] xris: oh, speaking of which.. now that I have channel icons again, I can finish taking my screencaps
[05:39:00] Chutt: you wanted me earlier?
[05:40:00] Cardoe: Chutt: oh yeah
[05:40:00] Chutt: well, a _lot_ earlier today
[05:40:00] Cardoe: Chutt: can we get "0.19.1" targets and stuff in trac?
[05:40:00] dtm: xris: me too. ....dear God....
[05:40:00] Chutt: targets?
[05:40:00] Cardoe: Chutt: not really an important request.
[05:40:00] Chutt: i know i need to add 0.19 _versions_
[05:41:00] Cardoe: yeah
[05:41:00] Chutt: i don't want to add a specific milestone for 0.19.1, though
[05:41:00] Cardoe: ok
[05:41:00] Chutt: since that's more of a 'release it if it's needed' thing
[05:42:00] Chutt: what's the 'time' variable associated with a version in trac for?
[05:42:00] Cardoe: oh
[05:42:00] Cardoe: I'm getting an Xbox setup for Myth
[05:42:00] Cardoe: so I'll be able to test there for ya
[05:43:00] Cardoe: Chutt: time variable? where at?
[05:43:00] Chutt: just don't compile on it :p
[05:43:00] Chutt: version add <name> [time]  — Add version
[05:43:00] Cardoe: no way
[05:43:00] Cardoe: oh
[05:43:00] Chutt: version time <name> <time>  — Set version date (Format: "YYYY-MM-DD" or "now")
[05:43:00] Cardoe: when the version was "released"
[05:43:00] xris: Chutt: maybe an expected release date?
[05:43:00] Cardoe: yeah you can post date or pre date
[05:43:00] Chutt: ah
[05:44:00] Cardoe: so you can say 0.20 is expected in 2020
[05:44:00] Chutt: i need to decide if i want to move over to their 'new ticket model' at some point
[05:44:00] Cardoe: query based searching?
[05:44:00] Cardoe: it's really good
[05:44:00] Chutt: err, isn't that more milestones?
[05:44:00] Cardoe: and easy to setup
[05:44:00] Chutt: milestone due date
[05:44:00] Cardoe: yeah
[05:44:00] Chutt: no, their new ticket model gets rid of priority
[05:44:00] Chutt: or severity
[05:44:00] Cardoe: oh
[05:44:00] Cardoe: that
[05:44:00] Chutt: one of them

[05:46:00] Chutt: but memtest86 runs for days
[05:46:00] Cardoe: could be heat
[05:47:00] Chutt: naw, cpu's under 50c
[05:47:00] Chutt: ram's underclocked
[05:47:00] Cardoe: oh
[05:47:00] kormoc: Chutt, depending on the vendor, could rma it
[05:47:00] Chutt: it's been too long :p
[05:47:00] Chutt: and i don't know which of the 4 modules
[05:47:00] Cardoe: kormoc: how's everything working?
[05:47:00] Chutt: oh yeah
[05:47:00] kormoc: Cardoe, so far quite good.
[05:47:00] Cardoe: good
[05:47:00] Chutt: Cardoe, what's the ebuild description for 'mythcontrols'?
[05:47:00] kormoc: Chutt, tis why I like corsair, lifetime RMA's, no questions asked.
[05:48:00] Cardoe: ha
[05:48:00] Cardoe: something stupid
[05:48:00] Cardoe: I didn't have a clue
[05:48:00] Cardoe: I never even saw mythcontrols added in 0.18
[05:48:00] Cardoe: I asked in here
[05:48:00] Cardoe: no one had an answer for me
[05:48:00] kormoc: Chutt, Cardoe, ooh, one issue I've found. The little preview display in the recorded tv window has it's colors slightly off in a slanting lined pattern.

[06:21:00] kormoc: lightx, you can set what myth sets it to, if that would fix it
[06:21:00] lightx: where?
[06:21:00] kormoc: lightx, myth allows a perchannel setting. it's in the DB.
[06:22:00] gpx1000: Calroth, asterisk supports SIP clients which mythphone is.

[06:25:00] Yellow-Snow: i mean attach it to what
[06:25:00] lightx: great!
[06:25:00] Yellow-Snow: use it for what? speaker phone?
[06:25:00] lightx: good to know.
[06:26:00] kormoc: lightx, DESCRIBE channel will show you all the fields in that table and what they are, if you care to explore a little :)
[06:26:00] lightx: nice.
[06:26:00] lightx: will check that out.
[06:26:00] kormoc: Yellow-Snow, hrm. What about say, a load monitor. have a constant tone that changes based on the load!
[06:26:00] Yellow-Snow: ?
[06:27:00] kormoc: Yellow-Snow, as the cpu get's used, have the tone go up, so it becomes a shrill sound!
[06:27:00] Yellow-Snow: or
[06:27:00] Yellow-Snow: install it in the front of my box
[06:27:00] Yellow-Snow: for another speaker for my tv
[06:27:00] Yellow-Snow: !
[06:27:00] Yellow-Snow: or put leds around it
[06:27:00] Yellow-Snow: make it light up
[06:27:00] Yellow-Snow: idk
[06:30:00] lightx: kormoc: know anything about changing the saturation?
[06:31:00] kormoc: lightx, might be colour
[06:31:00] lightx: i tried UPDATE channel SET hue=0;

[06:31:00] Yellow-Snow: wtf how do u delete a file thats read only?

[07:04:00] JoeyJoeJo: calroth: yes, the streamzap remote works great on my linux box
[07:04:00] Calroth: i don't know about mac remote controls, but i haven't read up on them... with the release of frontrow, some may have cropped up

[07:05:00] mchou: heck, I'm surprised Jobs didnt build an ir receiver on the mac :)
[07:05:00] Calroth: the new imac does have an infrared receiver and remote control, it comes standard
[07:06:00] Calroth: also has 6 buttons total
[07:06:00] mchou: Calroth: well, there you go then :)
[07:06:00] JoeyJoeJo: does the mac mini come with that?
[07:06:00] Calroth: nope, imac only
[07:06:00] JoeyJoeJo: damn
[07:06:00] mchou: Calroth: time to get an imac, dont ya think?

[07:07:00] Calroth: mac mini wasn't designed as a pvr, although you're not the first to consider it :-)
[07:07:00] JoeyJoeJo: yeah, I've read on the mailing list about it
[07:07:00] Calroth: i doubt the processor can handle HD though, at least not in its current state
[07:07:00] mchou: lol, I doubt the proc can handle SD
[07:07:00] JoeyJoeJo: I'm not worried about HD right now, so I think it would be right up my street
[07:08:00] JoeyJoeJo: really, at 1.5ghz?
[07:08:00] Calroth: it can handle SD just fine :-)
[07:08:00] mchou: only if you run osx :)
[07:08:00] mchou: not linux
[07:09:00] Calroth: never tried mythfrontend on linux on mac hardware
[07:09:00] mchou: gah....
[07:09:00] dtm: i have mythfrontend on macos on a 350 MHz g3 with macos and the backend on a 233 MHz powerbook with ppc linux
[07:10:00] JoeyJoeJo: calroth: what about a native osx mythfronted?
[07:10:00] dtm: JoeyJoeJo: what about it
[07:10:00] Calroth: dtm – what kind of performance do you get?
[07:10:00] Calroth: my g3/400 can't decode SD digital
[07:10:00] JoeyJoeJo: did you try that calroth? a native osx frontend?
[07:10:00] Calroth: and yes, I have a native mac os x frontend, works fine
[07:11:00] JoeyJoeJo: sweet, thats exactly what I wanted to hear.. have you upgraded to .19 yet?
[07:11:00] Calroth: nope... winter olympics ;-)
[07:12:00] JoeyJoeJo: where can I find the osx frontend?
[07:13:00] dtm: JoeyJoeJo: google
[07:13:00] Calroth: http://www.thesniderpad.com/ and click on "Downloads"
[07:13:00] Calroth: or build your own, like I did :-p
[07:13:00] mchou: anyone have any experience with using usb drive enclosures?
[07:14:00] JoeyJoeJo: thanks.. can the frontend compile from the regular sources on osx?
[07:15:00] Calroth: sure
[07:15:00] Calroth: there are scripts to automate it for you, else you have to compile qt, mysql, etc. etc. for yourself

[10:26:00] juski: bear in mind that some of the OSD is hard coded

[10:27:00] juski: I can live without colour OSD for the time being
[10:27:00] Merlin83b: I didn't even pop the menu up – had to go out being the date it was :-)
[10:27:00] juski: going out for valentines.. feeling rich? ;-)
[10:27:00] Merlin83b: Thing is, when the parts of the OSD fade out it causes mild jerkiness. I was wondering if I can just remove the fadeaway attribute in the XML file.

[10:31:00] Merlin83b: I'm on 8.5 up here :-)
[10:31:00] ivor: then you can get overcharged for a set menu that's been poorly cooked by an overworked kitchen and served by surly staff who'd rather be out enjoying themselves and can't be bothered giving service.
[10:32:00] juski: last time we went out for valentines it was short notice, so ended up at cafe rouge – I didn't expect it to be up to much but it was
[10:32:00] Merlin83b: Except we went early, and to a good restaurant.
[10:32:00] Merlin83b: There was one other couple in there.

[13:32:00] laga: juski: well, banning smoking in public places is good.
[13:32:00] Ryushin: Kyler: Hmm.... Do the sat receivers have a firewire out that we can record from?
[13:32:00] GreyFoxx: Ryushin: No, they are just scared of it and the idea of people learning how they do what they do

[13:33:00] Hoxzer: GreayFoxx: yeah
[13:33:00] GreyFoxx: juski: I hate smoking, but that's just wrong
[13:33:00] Ryushin: ivor: True.  :) But at least the old version works.
[13:33:00] GreyFoxx: Hoxzer: No, it uses it's own internal player for livetv/recording playback
[13:33:00] ivor: Ryushin: and since noone can see the source, everyones got to sit like lemons waiting for NVidia to release a fix.
[13:33:00] Ryushin: Kyler: Are there any for echostar? Also, how do we change the channel on those?
[13:34:00] ivor: Ryushin: closed source is bad.
[13:34:00] laga: GreyFoxx: i could imagine them prohiting smoking for the driver – handling a cigarette may be distracting
[13:34:00] tweak_st: nothing is stopping someone from reversing the nvidia driver...
[13:34:00] GreyFoxx: Bah, so is your radio, or talking to a mate in the car with you
[13:34:00] Hoxzer: I was just wondering if I could setup "volume_down" button as volume down in the player but when in menu it would work as "down"
[13:34:00] Merlin83b: I may well post a thing on this into trac. I think it explains the LiveTV takes ages to start issue.
[13:34:00] Ryushin: ivor: Oh, I'm a firm believer in open source. If there was a via unichromepro video card, I'd drop nvidia in a heart beat.
[13:35:00] ivor: well there's deltachrome... but I don't know anyone who's tried one.
[13:35:00] GreyFoxx: Hoxzer: I'm not sure how you would do that, I've never tried... but you can check out the new key editor in 0.19

[13:36:00] tweak_st: anybody have their 'watch recordings' little preview window have messed up colors?
[13:36:00] tweak_st: like smeared diagonally
[13:36:00] Jasper: hmm time to go to carwash..
[13:37:00] Ryushin: ivor: Can deltachrome use the xvmc drivers?
[13:37:00] ivor: Ryushin: don't know. as I said noones tried.
[13:37:00] Hoxzer: how do I test is my lirc config working?
[13:37:00] tweak_st: lircd; irw; press buttons.
[13:38:00] ivor: I'm sure someone said it was basically a unichrome-pro, just need to find someone with a card to try.
[13:38:00] Kyler: Ryushin: http://169time.com/ Seems like I saw something about channel change commands over FireWire but I use IR to control my satellite receivers.

[13:45:00] Kyler: Last night I also disabled NFS access to my TV recordings. I can imagine that playback is now slightly better. I still get a lot of pauses but I'm not getting timeouts when I first try to play programs.
[13:45:00] laga: Spida: my fixed packages for debian stuff can't be offline since i'm currently IRCing from that machine :)
[13:46:00] Ryushin: Kyler: Are you using nfs over tcp or udp? I have a LOT of experience (both good and bad) with nfs.
[13:47:00] Kyler: Ryushin: I assume it's UDP. I just used the standard Debian kernel NFSd.
[13:48:00] Kyler: I generally prefer to avoid NFS.
[13:48:00] Ryushin: Kyler: UDP is enabled by default. You have to export it using tcp. Do you have one system that has gigabit and the other one is 10/100?
[13:49:00] Kyler: Ha! Both systems I'm using now have GigE but I'm still using a 10/100 switch.
[13:50:00] Kyler: My next step, however, is to deploy a couple more of my frontends with wireless networks...
[13:50:00] splAt1 is now known as splat1
[13:51:00] Ryushin: If if one system has gig, and the other has 100, then UDP is going to cause all sorts of issues.
[13:51:00] Kyler: They both should negotiate a 100Mbps connection with the switch.
[13:52:00] Ryushin: Kyler: The real key to NFS is optimizing the exports and mounts. It should only take about an hour to do the research and set up the appropriate settings.
[13:52:00] Ryushin: Kyler: Yea, then UDP shouldn't be your problem. But UDP in general, sucks. It's fast, but I've seen TCP run just as fast using NFS.
[13:52:00] Kyler: Is there a real advantage to using NFS instead of the other transport Myth uses?
[13:53:00] Hoxzer: how do I reload new lirc config?
[13:53:00] Kyler: I only switched to NFS because I seemed to need it for plugins (video and music).
[13:53:00] rjune: myth doesn't use any other transport for most things
[13:53:00] Ryushin: Kyler: Yea, in fact this was just on the development list. Someone has having issues streaming between the backends and frontends. NFS was much faster.
[13:54:00] Ryushin: Kyler: I actually use smbfs instead of nfs for my music and video.
[13:54:00] Spida: laga: hm, I am not on debian...
[13:54:00] Kyler: Hmmm...o.k., maybe I'll change back.
[13:54:00] Spida: laga: do you have a .tar.gz?
[13:55:00] laga: Spida: nope. you might want to get a cvs checkout then
[13:55:00] Spida: yeah.
[13:55:00] Spida: where?
[13:55:00] Merlin83b: Ooh, seen 8947/8948, juski?
[13:55:00] laga: Spida: should be described on http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/xmltv/
[13:56:00] rjune: why smbfs?
[13:56:00] Kyler: Ryushin: Is the advantage of NFS (with UDP, I assume) just the elimination of some overhead? Is timing actually better? Can the transport handle dropped data gracefully?
[13:59:00] Ryushin: Kyler: UDP won't handle dropped data very well. NFS over TCP will. From what I understand with Myth, it likes to pull the data off using a block like device.
[14:00:00] Kyler: UDP handles dropped data just fine. It's Myth that would have to deal with never getting the data. Perhaps that's o.k. though.
[14:00:00] Ryushin: NFS v3 is actaully very fast. I've just gotten in the habit now of always using TCP because of the problems I've had in the past. Also settings your buffers to 32168 (I think) improves performance because the packets are larger.
[14:00:00] Ryushin: Well UDP doesn't handle congestion very well. TCP won't have a problem with congestion.
[14:01:00] Kyler: UDP deals with congestion by dropping packets. TCP...well, there's ECN, I suppose. Are you using it?
[14:02:00] Kyler: (I should have said "UDP *misses* packets" under congestion pressure. It's not so much a function of the protocol.)
[14:03:00] rjune: actually, I think it is. IIRC UDP doesn't allow for any sort of retransmission like TCP
[14:03:00] Nichotin_ is now known as Nichotin
[14:03:00] rjune: it just sends and doesn't care if the data got to where it's going
[14:03:00] Ryushin: TCP will slow it's rate down if it encounters congestion. From what I understand, UDP wont.
[14:04:00] Kyler: I'm trying to determine if that's an advantage to Myth.
[14:04:00] Ryushin: Try NFS over TCP with the larger buffers, you might be pleasently surprised.
[14:04:00] Ryushin: Kyler: And there is a whole thing about hard mounts and soft mounts.
[14:05:00] Hoxzer: what was that program to control nvidia tv-chip?
[14:05:00] Kyler: If I'm pushing 5Mbps video, it really doesn't help to spend a bunch of bandwidth on retranmissions and error congestion control. I need the video when it's ready to be seen or not at all.
[14:07:00] Kyler: BTW, I'm noticing clearly better response when selecting a MythTV program to play now that I'm not using NFS. With NFS I'd select a program and wait several seconds. Often it would timeout and I'd have to reselect it (after telling Myth not to delete it). Now I'm getting playback after just a couple seconds or so.

[14:10:00] Kyler: Ryushin: Did you consider CIFS? Incidentally, I'm using FUSE/SSHFS a lot recently and I'm quite happy with it. I'd probably have to play with different ciphers to keep it reasonable on my Mini-ITX though.

[14:12:00] Ryushin: I'll have to play with FUSE/SSHFS. I've been waiting for an encypted network file system. I only use cifs when I have to talk to win2003.
[14:12:00] Kyler: When I was getting buffer overruns I wondered if I might be experiencing drive (thermal) recalibrations. With four drives, I suppose that would happen a lot.
[14:13:00] Kyler: As I recall, SMBFS is no longer maintained. CIFS does all it does and more (and is maintained). It supports stuff like symlinks (which is important to me).
[14:15:00] Ryushin: Hmmm.... Maybe it's time to dump smbfs then. I'll have to do some more research.

[15:59:00] dev-: its what you specified during the install .sh heh
[15:59:00] quitte: juski: for debian users great parts of not breaking stuff involves letting the tools do things for you. recommending to build a kernel for something trivial as getting lirc to work is a bad idea imho

[16:00:00] juski: and a howto guide I read once said not to build the serial ports into the kernel
[16:00:00] bazil: was hoping that i could use that install for running different sitets on same server .. for example if i connect to the webmyth with http://192.168.0.6/newpage
[16:00:00] juski: something which usually needs to be done retroactively
[16:00:00] quitte: juski: no problem. it's Hoxzers fault now that he ignores me
[16:00:00] juski: heh
[16:00:00] dev-: thats apache, nothing to do with mythtv
[16:01:00] Hoxzer: LOL
[16:01:00] Hoxzer: I can't find my tv-chip from the list
[16:01:00] Hoxzer: :D

[16:01:00] Hoxzer: I lost my mind now
[16:01:00] juski: I'm glad I found out about the setserial command now though – wasn't looking fwd to recompiling my umbongo kernel anyway

[16:04:00] Jasper: hmm
[16:04:00] dev-: i couldnt think of a good one
[16:05:00] Jasper: let me look it up for you

[16:05:00] Hoxzer: what does "---" mean in kernel configure menu?

[16:05:00] scopeuk: and the msn tv 2 boxes now have video output yay :D
[16:05:00] quitte: Hoxzer: it means dont comile your own kernel
[16:05:00] Jasper: ok juski...is 65% much>
[16:05:00] juski: how many mytht users does it take to change a lightbulb if they haven't read the manual?
[16:05:00] bazil: hmm ..ill give up the webpageproblem for now .. guyes .. how do i set users for mythconverg database ? cant seem to find the commando and i cant connect from winmyth to the mythserver
[16:05:00] juski: Jasper: if you have a 3GHz CPU and you're trying to watch standard def. TV it's quite a lot
[16:05:00] dev-: bazil: rtfm mysql
[16:06:00] Jasper: I got a 600 mhz
[16:06:00] Jasper: erm 800
[16:06:00] Jasper: :P
[16:06:00] juski: Jasper: looks about right
[16:06:00] bazil: dev .. thanks for the tip
[16:06:00] dev-: there's a reason 600mhz is the minimum requirements
[16:06:00] Hoxzer: quitte? eh...?
[16:06:00] Jasper: will it be less with hardware mpeg2 out juski ?
[16:06:00] juski: use xvmc and that 60% could be lowered a little
[16:06:00] dev-: so yeah, that sounds right
[16:06:00] ** juski doesn't recommend anyone use a PVR350, so there **
[16:06:00] Jasper: like a lit less
[16:06:00] Jasper: you DON'T recommend it?
[16:07:00] dev-: bazil: no problem, this is a mythtv channel not a mysql howto channel. googleing for "adding users to mysql" is a better idea than asking in here.
[16:07:00] juski: Jasper: that's right
[16:07:00] Jasper: why not juski ?

[16:08:00] bazil: dev np .. thought id ask and get an easy solution ... well . ill google instead
[16:09:00] quitte: Hoxzer: you cannot make a better kernel than debians. believe me. just install a kernel for your cpu and be done.
[16:09:00] dev-: now what would you learn from that

[16:09:00] juski: Jasper: 60% aint so bad – and you could prolly reduce that a fair bit by using a nvidia card (fx5200 or so) with tv out
[16:09:00] dev-: to come back here and questions you dont feel like looking up? now thats no good.. is it..
[16:10:00] Jasper: juski you think it will reduce that much more than with a geforce2 ?
[16:10:00] Hoxzer: quitte: you mean installing one from deb?
[16:10:00] dev-: xvmc is nice, yes, it will reduce cpu useage.
[16:10:00] juski: Jasper: my whole point about the pvr350 is that its main selling point (quality TV output & mpeg decoding) has been offset in recent times by nvidia cards etc
[16:10:00] quitte: Hoxzer: yes
[16:10:00] Hoxzer: what if I say "lol"?
[16:10:00] Jasper: yeah but the nvidia cards don't have mpeg decoding?
[16:10:00] juski: Jasper: with geforce2, you don't get xvmc
[16:10:00] dev-: juski: not to mention the best setup is a split frontend so whats the point of mpeg2 decoding on the backend

[16:11:00] dev-: go lookup what xvmc is
[16:11:00] ** dev- shakes head. **
[16:12:00] dev-: xvmc has been mentioned 4 times in the last 6 minutes
[16:12:00] juski: Jasper: X video Motion Compensation. it can take a lot of load off the CPU, but not all of it
[16:12:00] tweak_st: anybody have any problems with the 'watch recordings' preview picture colors?
[16:12:00] dev-: if you dont knwo what it is, you should look it up..
[16:13:00] juski: tweak_st: that was an old bug in 0.17 iirc
[16:13:00] Hoxzer: quitte: ok, what kernel do you sugges?
[16:13:00] juski: or Qt..
[16:13:00] bazil: sorry if i annoyed u by beeing to lazy to search .. my bad dev .. sorry .. will not happend again .. in the future i will not ask questions that i cant look up .... so .. prolly will not ask nything since everything is possible in some way to look up on internet
[16:13:00] Hoxzer: 2.6?
[16:13:00] tweak_st: the weird thing is when i use a theme that distorts the preview aspect ratio there are no artifacts
[16:13:00] quitte: Hoxzer: sarge or etch? what cpu?
[16:13:00] tweak_st: juski im on .19
[16:13:00] quitte: Hoxzer: yes. 2.6
[16:13:00] juski: tweak_st – what's your desktop DPI set to hmm?
[16:13:00] dev-: bazil: good to hear. most likely you will come across something you *cant* lookup, which is what this channel is for :)
[16:14:00] dev-: unfortuantely it seems noobs just come to this channel now instead of even reading the mythtv docs. its pretty sad.
[16:14:00] Ferrety: well, xvmc cant beat pvr-350 on cpu usage(or am I wrong)... but still, juski is right about not recommending 350 at this day and age
[16:14:00] tweak_st: it was fine before i upgraded to .19 ...?
[16:14:00] bazil: sorry to bother .... now .. off to the internet
[16:14:00] dev-: Ferrety: until you split your frontend and backend
[16:14:00] juski: themes are based on 800x600 res at 100 DPI in the case of 4:3 themes. 16:9 themes are based on 1280x720 @ 100DPI
[16:14:00] dev-: you will outgrow a single box, it is inevitable
[16:14:00] Jasper: so xvmc is like some sort of driver?
[16:14:00] Ferrety: well, I am capturing dvb and decoding it with pvr
[16:14:00] juski: Jasper: kind of. it's an extension to X
[16:14:00] Ferrety: so, whats your point?
[16:15:00] tweak_st: how do i check dpi?

[16:15:00] quitte: dev-: that's what dremels are for
[16:15:00] juski: tweak_st: try xdpyinfo
[16:16:00] juski: Jasper: it's mpeg2 decoding _assistance_
[16:16:00] dev-: quitte: true, but going for astetics is nice sometimes :) the fiance would not like a full height pci card sitcking out of a mini-itx case hehe
[16:16:00] SpamLap: I'm having some trouble changing channels ... the docs suggest I have a problem with my programs database. Any way I can confirm that? mythfilldatabase took forever to run.. not keen on clearing the db if i can avoid it.

[16:17:00] dev-: yah, riser slot, but you'll burnout a pvrXXX in such a small case
[16:17:00] Jasper: I'm talking about encoding
[16:17:00] juski: tweak_st: time to google how to set yopur desktop DPI

[16:17:00] quitte: Hoxzer: no patch. how about you answered my questions?
[16:17:00] dev-: there are no nvidia cards that hardware encode mpeg2
[16:18:00] Jasper: ok that was my question :P
[16:18:00] dev-: yes, i know
[16:18:00] dev-: and i believe you asked the wrong one

[17:46:00] Merlin83b: And thanks, backend, for finally freeing up some disk space :-)
[17:46:00] dev-: hehe yeah.. its funny though, when i started with myth, last spring, it was 1 settop box, it took me about a little less than a week to get going because i had never messed with capture cards in unix before. she was bitching the first couple days i wasnt spending any time with her, etc etc. then i set it up, and she complained and complained about the remote mappings. it took a good week after setting it up to get the mappings 'girlfriend friendly
[17:46:00] coffee88: Hmmm. Does a frontend box need mysql on it too? Just trying to emerge using the the frontendonly flag, and it still wants to build mysql?
[17:46:00] Merlin83b: coffee88: mysql client, yes
[17:46:00] Merlin83b: I'm going home.
[17:47:00] dev-: a couple weeks after that, we noticed we needed 2 tuners. 1 does not cut it at all. a few months after that, we needed a 3rd, then a 4th... now niether of us can live without myth

[17:47:00] drdaz: I've added them to xorg.conf in the correct places... but when I restart X and run xvidtune I am told I am running in 1024*768

[17:51:00] bazil: ?
[17:51:00] bazil: on a windows machine
[17:52:00] drdaz: live TV?
[17:52:00] dev-: modifying mythweb to link your .nuv files as http then installing vlc and mapping it to .nuv extension is what i do
[17:52:00] drdaz: or recordings?
[17:52:00] dev-: but live tv, is no go.
[17:52:00] bazil: ya live tv
[17:52:00] dev-: nothing you can do.
[17:52:00] dev-: without some vlc trickery and perl scripts
[17:52:00] drdaz: recordings will go over dsmyth
[17:52:00] drdaz: although..
[17:52:00] bazil: oki

[17:54:00] dev-: i heard mythfrontend in vmware runs good
[17:54:00] dev-: havent tried it myself though.
[17:54:00] Kelerion: you can open the mpg recordings in vlc easy enough
[17:54:00] drdaz: I have..
[17:54:00] drdaz: it was kinda slow
[17:54:00] bazil: but i can still stream the recorded programs ?
[17:54:00] ChanServ sets mode +sntc
[17:54:00] Kelerion: I run it in vmware fine
[17:54:00] drdaz: and rendered the rest of my machine pretty useless
[17:55:00] dev-: /usr/bin/vlc -I http --sout-transcode-fps=25 --sout '#transcode{vcodec=DIV3,acodec=mp3,vb=256,ab=64,scale=.5}:standard{access=http{u ser=username,pwd=password,mime=video/x-ms-asf},mux=asf,url=:8001}' pvr:/dev/video0
[17:55:00] dev-: that works, but you have to change channels manually.
[17:55:00] dev-: is how i watch livetv at work heh
[17:55:00] Kelerion: I only use it when I want to watch something.. then pause it when I'm finished..
[17:55:00] drdaz: Kelerion: what kinda machine do you have?
[17:55:00] drdaz: beefy?
[17:56:00] Kelerion: yup
[17:56:00] drdaz: heh
[17:56:00] drdaz: how beefy?
[17:56:00] bazil: dev .. thats only in linux right .. not gonna work in windows ?
[17:56:00] dev-: you run vlc on your backend to open up that port which you stream from with mplayer/vlc client
[17:56:00] drdaz: I tried it out on an athlon XP-M clocked at about 2GHz..
[17:57:00] dev-: from what i understand, mediaplayer is gay and wont 'stream' unless you use m$'s little streaming server bs
[17:57:00] drdaz: on an FC4 install in vmware

[18:00:00] Kelerion: I said I'd take you up on it when I tried linux on this machine again.. and I have it installed
[18:00:00] dev-: mythstreamtv works great for watching recorded programs. it will not allow you watch livetv either. and all mythstreamtv is, is a few php and shell scripts for vlc
[18:00:00] Kelerion: I can get a single (middle) monitor working.. *or* left and right monitors working as a big desktop.. but not all three going
[18:01:00] drdaz: dev: this is bizarre... the log file says "no such mode"... yet I have it defined under the Monitor section

[18:07:00] kormoc: Kelerion, okay, and what's the issue?
[18:08:00] Kelerion: I can't figure out how to get all three going... last time I tried this whenever I reference the driver twice (once for each card) the driver would segfault
[18:08:00] kormoc: Kelerion, well, one thing I noticed is you don't have MTRR's enabled in your kernel, you really should
[18:09:00] sona_: in mythtv 0.19, everything I watch is recorded, actually it records 24/7 whatever is tuned, why is this ?
[18:09:00] synthetiq is now known as tamp4x

[18:10:00] kormoc: sona_, they are just expired first when space is used up

[18:11:00] kormoc: sona_, not that I know of, no.
[18:11:00] drdaz: oO
[18:11:00] sona_: cause it has already deleted the shows I'd record
[18:11:00] kormoc: sona_, why have it on live tv 24/7 tho?
[18:12:00] Kelerion: could downgrade to .17 or pre-.18 I suppose.. it didn't work like that then (livetv handling)
[18:12:00] kormoc: 0.18.1 didn't do it as well
[18:12:00] sona_: kormoc: what do you mena ?
[18:12:00] drdaz: .18 doesnt do that either

[18:13:00] Kelerion: will let it finish compile myth then recompile the kernel.. this is a default 2.6.12 ubuntu kernel
[18:13:00] kormoc: sona_, it should delete livetv first, and then the shows in the order you have them set to autoexpire

[18:34:00] coffee88: May have to try it... Did I see you say the other day that it's no longer being distributed?
[18:34:00] kormoc: drdaz, perhaps it's the other file that should be removed?
[18:34:00] drdaz: worth a shot I guess

[19:01:00] j-rod: I figured
[19:01:00] Beirdo: that poor little car couldn't possibly go faster without a hurricane for a tailwind
[19:01:00] kormoc: Kelerion, it frees up some mtrrs, which might help
[19:01:00] j-rod: I'll be telecommuting for a month or two while I get my house sold
[19:02:00] j-rod: but yeah, they like you in the office
[19:04:00] Kelerion: kormoc, your xorg.conf looks suspiciously like how I would have thought mine should look like (for two monitors) .. even down the the pciid's.. would it be worth using yours as a template and work from there to add the 3rd monitor?
[19:04:00] jams: hey j-rod good to see you

[19:31:00] Kelerion: I used aticonfig to get this xorg.conf.. so not sure how it's all done.. does the "DesktopSetup" "horizontal" define it as a big desktop?
[19:31:00] Jasper: kormoc they don't work yet?
[19:32:00] kormoc: Jasper, tis my understanding, aye
[19:32:00] Jasper: watching a dvd gives me 90% cpu usage

[19:32:00] kormoc: Kelerion, yup
[19:32:00] Jasper: bit high maybe
[19:32:00] kormoc: Kelerion, it's why I have two device sections for my single card, one for each head
[19:33:00] Kelerion: so.. comment out the DesktopSetup and add Xinerama to ServerFlags.. right?
[19:34:00] Jasper: how can you actually see if import dvd works?
[19:34:00] kormoc: Kelerion, and add a second section for the card that had two heads.

[19:40:00] dev-: no sweat i'll check out the readme as always ;)
[19:40:00] xris: next one should be even better. I didn't have time to update much of the toolbar this time around.
[19:40:00] dev-: i should read the changelog, but i really want to ask, can you modify myth config settings through it now?
[19:41:00] dev-: not like you touch them after you get it setup to your likeing, but just curious ;)

[20:04:00] rjune: legal with myth itself? or with codecs?
[20:04:00] j-rod: (which of course, is slightly retarded) :)

[20:05:00] Chutt: but there's always the gemstar patent on displaying a program guide in a grid on a tv

[20:05:00] Yellow-Snow2: ls -a

[20:06:00] j-rod: though like Chutt said, the gemstar thing too
[20:06:00] Kelerion: display the guide in a sphere.. that'd screw up the legals :)

[21:03:00] rjune: well, I suppose as long as you don't care about it starting videos automatically it's not bad.
[21:03:00] dev-: i dont knwo if id call tivo a video jukebox, you cant write your own avi's to that can you?

[21:06:00] rjune: you cand do that

[21:25:00] xris: sorry for the confusion. I already had a remote.
[21:25:00] xris: and then randomly ended up getting an mce remote recently, anyway (which is good because it's a nicer remote than I had)
[21:27:00] D-side: i might want one also. i'm getting a little tired of the xbmc frontend, even though the output quality is great

[21:32:00] k-man: so just as a front end its pretty good?
[21:32:00] k-man: i already have a machine that opperates as my backend
[21:32:00] k-man: what do you mean by hd? high definition?
[21:33:00] xris: yes

[21:33:00] k-man: ok
[21:34:00] Pitchin_uk: which is the best user to start the mythbackend service?
[21:34:00] Pitchin_uk: root or the user i ran the setup as??
[21:34:00] xris: Pitchin_uk: I prefer to use root.. but that's just how my distro does.
[21:34:00] Beirdo: the latter
[21:34:00] k-man: you can get an xbox in australia for around $150-$200 now
[21:34:00] k-man: not bad for a front end
[21:34:00] Beirdo: if you ran the setup as a user, run as that user
[21:34:00] k-man: is it difficult to install linux on an xbox?
[21:34:00] dev-: hrm viewing recorded programs seems much slower in the new version of mythweb
[21:34:00] Beirdo: I personally use root too
[21:34:00] xris: Pitchin_uk: it doesn't really matter, though. as long as the user has access to the the video devices, you're fine
[21:34:00] k-man: i mean, do you have to hack the hardware to do it?
[21:35:00] D-side: xris: sorry, you mean xbmc on an xbox?
[21:35:00] xris: running as root gives you access to realtime priority threading, which is nice.
[21:35:00] xris: D-side: sorry, thought you mistyped xvmc (as in nvndia)
[21:35:00] Beirdo: well, so does running suid root, no?
[21:35:00] xris: Beirdo: yes.
[21:35:00] xris: but running as random-tv-user won't.
[21:35:00] dev-: xris why is viewing recorded programs so much slower now :)
[21:35:00] Beirdo: heh
[21:35:00] dev-: i was hoping it'd be faster if anything ;)
[21:36:00] xris: k-man: yes and no. I think there are some games that you can break into console mode in and make it boot linux
[21:36:00] k-man: xris, but you need to have one of those games
[21:36:00] D-side: k-man: i didnt isntall linux on the xbox, i use the xbox media center app that runs without installing linux
[21:36:00] xris: k-man: yup
[21:36:00] GreyFoxx: devel: What do you mean by slower? What exactly is "slower" ?
[21:36:00] D-side: you need an action replay usb thing too.
[21:36:00] k-man: interesting
[21:37:00] k-man: d-side, what does that do
[21:37:00] dev-: nice, mythweb crashed mythbackend heh
[21:37:00] k-man: ?
[21:37:00] Niklas_E: when you are gonna use a dvb-s card which tv card should you use? dtv?
[21:37:00] D-side: k-man: xboxmediacenter.com will tell you all about it. and btw, my xbox IS hacked. i've got a modchip in it.
[21:37:00] Pitchin_uk: ok cool
[21:37:00] D-side: it made it bearable to upgrade the hard drive.
[21:38:00] k-man: ok, thanks
[21:38:00] Pitchin_uk: is there a command for actuall stopping a service
[21:38:00] Pitchin_uk: and obviously starting it?
[21:38:00] k-man: Pitchin_uk, depends on your distro
[21:38:00] k-man: which distro?
[21:38:00] Pitchin_uk: suse
[21:38:00] D-side: you can do as xris suggested with an AR dongle and an exploitable game, but i dont think its a great idea.
[21:38:00] queuetue: Actually, can mythfrontend be run on a ps2?
[21:39:00] xris: Pitchin_uk: can you use the atrpms packages?
[21:39:00] Pitchin_uk: i ont know what they are?
[21:39:00] k-man: D-side, do what's the best way in your opinion?

[21:41:00] Chutt: that was more to beirdo
[21:42:00] Beirdo: yeah, I didn't mean YOU did it, but gotta love the comment :)
[21:43:00] naetrick: I keep getting the error "Unable to initialize video" when trying to watch live TV. Here are the messages dumped to console when that happens: http://rafb.net/paste/results/MplzNv25.html
[21:43:00] naetrick: How should I fix it?
[21:43:00] dev-: so new ver of mythweb regens all the preview pngs even if they exist eh.
[21:43:00] Beirdo: note to all: beware calling others morons then making a typo
[21:43:00] queuetue: Looks like no mythfrontend on PS2?
[21:43:00] dev-: Beirdo: lol
[21:43:00] xris: dev-: it regens them if the recordings have been altered since it last grabbed them
[21:43:00] Chutt: naetrick, your kernel is broken.
[21:43:00] xris: queuetue: dunno if anyone has tried
[21:44:00] naetrick: chutt: How so? I can record video with my driver's bundled app, gorecord, just fine
[21:44:00] dev-: xris: none of them were altered, but all the timestamps show they were rengerated on the first load of recorded programs.. (which crashed mythbackend for some reason).. restarted mythbackend, went to recorded programs again, and it went through and didnt crash.. hope .19 is stable hehe
[21:44:00] dev-: .18 was very stable. had months of uptime, though memory leakage on frontend
[21:44:00] naetrick: Maybe a setting is incorrect?
[21:44:00] Chutt: naetrick, you seem to have shared memory disabled.
[21:45:00] Chutt: xris, we need a better 'recording was altered' check
[21:45:00] xris: dev-: it's been very stable for me... I haven't had backend crashes since like .16, though
[21:45:00] Chutt: since currently it's a timestamp
[21:45:00] Chutt: so, er, watching the video modifies the record :p
[21:45:00] xris: Chutt: oh.. timestamp field. yeah, that's not great
[21:45:00] rjune: funny, I had crashing probs with mythmusic and .18
[21:46:00] xris: I'm in favor of just using ints... can do nice math with them, and then they're in php's native time format.
[21:46:00] naetrick: Chutt: Hmm... how would I enable it? Where is the kernel option
[21:46:00] Chutt: i dunno
[21:46:00] Chutt: you disabled it, though
[21:46:00] naetrick: chutt: Well... would that be causing the problem?

[22:49:00] Juski: Gumby: my DVB recordings are very quiet compared to my mp3 collection

[22:49:00] Juski: you need a degree of 'headroom' anyway – IMHO there's little worse than distorted sound

[22:54:00] Yellow-Snow2: squish

[22:55:00] Yellow-Snow2: for knoppmyth
[22:55:00] squish102: the knoppmyth works perfectly
[22:55:00] Yellow-Snow2: so the problem?
[22:55:00] squish102: that is the reason i have it running, but now i am moving all my stuff from fc4 over
[22:56:00] squish102: and having to increase /home (which i have done) and setting up alot of stuff

[22:58:00] squish102: Gumby i have had 2 bttv cards, could get none of them to come even close to reasonable sound

[22:59:00] Yellow-Snow2: ?

[22:59:00] Yellow-Snow2: ^^ i got a pvr

[23:11:00] dtm: glen: does it work with other apps?
[23:11:00] dtm: glen: is your mixer partially muted
[23:11:00] glen: it works elsewhere, and it worked earlier
[23:12:00] dtm: it worked with mythtv 0.18.1?
[23:12:00] dtm: glen: any output to dmesg?
[23:12:00] glen: i mean if i unmute line-in (so that i hear diretly from line in, i hear both)
[23:12:00] Juski: ahhh...
[23:12:00] glen: i'm not sure about version, i ran earlier svn rev, but perhaps the same version
[23:12:00] dtm: oic
[23:12:00] Juski: mythtv has individual channel mutes though doesn't it?
[23:13:00] glen: i tried that too, didn't help
[23:13:00] glen: in fact if i enabled that option i was able to switch the single channel listening to the other speaker ;)
[23:13:00] dtm: glen: i'm confused by unmuting line-in. what's that got to do with this? do you have your tv input plugged into line in?
[23:13:00] glen: and the problem is not with playback, because if i exported with nuvexport there's also only single channel (err, right one)

[23:14:00] Juski: dtm: you need to mute line in if you use framegrabbers
[23:14:00] dtm: :-.
[23:14:00] glen: dtm: if i unmute it, it will repeat with echo
[23:15:00] Juski: mute it in playback but enable it for recording
[23:15:00] dtm: glen: oh you're saying it works, with an echo, if you unmute the playback.
[23:15:00] glen: for myth only "record" switch must be on
[23:15:00] dtm: glen: but your recording channels are always unmuted
[23:15:00] glen: dtm no.. wait...
[23:16:00] Juski: glen knows the score ;)
[23:16:00] glen: in mixer there are two "buttons" for line in: "record" and "mute"
[23:16:00] dtm: kthx
[23:16:00] dtm: never mind then ^_^
[23:16:00] glen: record is what myth uses, mute is what i hear directly
[23:16:00] glen: hard to explain so i explain it this simple way
[23:18:00] glen: maybe i should check with sox by reading the line in?
[23:18:00] glen: because xawtv and kdetv don't really use line in, they just unmute tv card output (whcih is connected to linein)

[23:35:00] jvs: FunkyELF, I had no probs upgrading mythtv
[23:35:00] FunkyELF: neodraco, and it worked fine in 0.18.1?
[23:35:00] jvs: only ivtv took me some time
[23:35:00] neodraco: yeah, all was ok with 0.18.1
[23:35:00] FunkyELF: jvs, you had to upgrade ivtv?

[23:37:00] FunkyELF: jvs, do you think that it was the ivtv that made switching faster and not the 0.19?

[23:39:00] dev-: just dont upgrade your kernel to 2.6.15
[23:39:00] dev-: what a bitch.

[23:39:00] dev-: 2.6.15 tuner module is build in
[23:40:00] dev-: 2.6.14 and below it uses ivtv's which i can set manually and works fine
[23:40:00] neodraco: quickpkg mythtv will suffice, if i recall correctly
[23:40:00] dev-: cant seem to get the included kernel one manually.
[23:40:00] psymin: dev-: interesting .. I'm using 2.6.15 and ivtv with a Hauppauge 150 .. seems fine.

[23:57:00] psymin: FunkyELF: Depends on the codec .. I think the only two options work in windows by default

[23:58:00] xpis: But.. does anyone who is using it have it working on the latest mythweb and mythtv code?
[23:58:00] dev-: wow, less than 2 minutes to go
[23:58:00] dev-: and its working perfectly
[23:58:00] AndyW: I have mythtv running on ubuntu, and the frontend comes up and everything seems to be working great... but I am not able to connect to mythweb from any of my other local network machines... any ideas?
[23:58:00] ** dev- wipes sweat off brow **
[23:58:00] dev-: hehe
[23:58:00] AndyW: error --> mysql_connect(): Access denied for user: 'mythtv@localhost'
[23:58:00] FunkyELF: i used winamp 2 for the longest time and just installed winamp 5 and I'm digging their videos that you can stream. I need to find a stream capture program so I can put those on my video iPod
[23:59:00] xpis: winamp2 has quite a few unpatched holes, iirc.
