[00:06:42] byco: scopeuk: thanks ;) it works as long as i switch applications to get the menus to refresh
[00:06:53] jnunez: defi_: I got my IVTV working with my 150 at version 4.4
[00:07:16] byco: it gets a little old after a while

[00:12:04] hd420: I'm having trouble with the ivtv driver, is this the appropriate place to ask questions?
[00:12:40] defi_: jnunez so its 0.4.4 thats the trick, this is funny though cause both cards worked with 0.4.0 before i migrated to a new backend
[00:13:30] jnunez: defi_: I had issues for a while and was about to get a 250 then tried the 4.4 with a Myth 0.19
[00:14:23] hd420: when I try to build ivtv-0.4.4, I get unknown target "modules"
[00:14:46] hd420: if I change the makefile to remove the modules dependency for all, it goes into a loop :(
[00:15:03] jnunez: hd420: which distro?
[00:15:11] hd420: ubuntu breezy
[00:15:24] hd420: gcc 3.4
[00:17:59] jnunez: is your kernel source available at /usr/src/linux
[00:21:29] jnunez: hd420: check for the kernel source, if it's not that then I am out of ideas
[00:22:26] defi_: you could also make sure you have CONFIG_VIDEO_AUDIO_DECODER, and CONFIG_VIDEO_DECODER set in your kernel config as modules
[00:22:50] defi_: That cused lotsa problems for me, that is if you using 2.6.15 or higher
[00:22:58] hd420: i'm using 2.6.10
[00:23:03] hd420: 12
[00:23:07] hd420: sorry. 2.6.12

[00:26:17] hd420: it is now
[00:27:33] hd420: nope...still doesn't work
[00:27:40] defi_: jnunez did you see something like this when your livetv would freeze:
[00:28:00] defi_: i2c_adapter i2c-1: master_xfer[0] W, addr=0x44, len=3
[00:28:01] hd420: the ivtv driver is extracted into /usr/src/ivtv-0.4.4
[00:30:37] jnunez: hd420: first confirm that you have a link from /usr/src/linux to /usr/src/linux-2.6.12 then it that doesn't work try defi_ sugesttions
[00:31:03] defi_: hes using a kernel < .15

[00:40:05] hd420: bloody hell
[00:40:07] hd420: this sucks!
[00:42:32] lane: Hi all. I just installed Myth on FC5. I'm having trouble getting xine to accept my remote control. The remote works fine with Myth, and I know my .lircrc file is good (used exact same file and remote on a previous Myth installation). I'm wondering if the freshrpms xine that I installed wasn't compiled with lirc support. Anybody running xine from freshrpms know if that's the case?
[00:42:48] jnunez: cliffd: http://www.leadtek.com.tw/eng/workstation_gra . . . ronameid=157 different hardware same plug

[00:47:16] cliffd: is this quadro chip set better then GeForce. I never heard of it.
[00:49:29] jnunez: It's for 3D Workstations. Waste of power for a Media System and I am not sure if it's compatible
[00:50:05] cliffd: ok. thanks for the info
[00:50:22] jnunez: Just make sure that the NVidia states that it supports HDTV
[00:50:24] cliffd: im finding higher ranged GeForce cards with that special 10 pin svideo out
[00:50:29] cliffd: I dont have hdtv
[00:50:33] cliffd: only sd
[00:50:42] cliffd: or does that not matter?
[00:50:56] cliffd: to get the component over svideo out I need hdtv support?
[00:51:05] jnunez: I know but it's the only ones with the 10 PIN port for the Comp adapter
[00:51:20] jnunez: yeah
[00:51:48] cliffd: cool. and comp is my best bet for quality with a SD tv?
[00:51:49] cliffd: right
[00:52:13] jnunez: yup

[00:52:26] jnunez: no prob
[00:52:42] cliffd: is it hard getting a dvd player to do progressive scan ? from the pvr of course.
[00:53:15] jnunez: nope Xine and MPlayer are both great
[00:53:26] jnunez: Xine is my pref. cause of the DVD Menu
[00:54:47] cliffd: cool. I really appreciate your help. I thought I had this all wrapped up and then my friend tells me "no component is the way to go"
[00:54:47] jnunez: brb going off to fix my Mame

[02:15:19] Netslayer: now i called back and found out they made a "customer education appointment"
[02:15:50] ncoredump: do you know other wise Netslayer?
[02:15:52] Netslayer: they're calling me back cause i threatened an fcc complaint on no active DVI
[02:16:05] ncoredump: i had a hdtv that i would love to get cooperating with dvi
[02:16:08] Netslayer: ncoredump, hell ya, how hard is it to plug a dvi cable in from a cable box to a projector
[02:16:27] Netslayer: i even tried my pc monitor, and she confirmed over the phone that dvi is not supported (disabled)
[02:17:31] LLyric: Heheh, still persisting? :)
[02:17:48] Netslayer: "the dvi output is only supported on the DVR HD Boxes and not the regular HD box" ... which is an infraction "(ii) Effective July 1, 2005, include both a DVI or HDMI interface an IEEE 1394 interface on all high definition set-top boxes acquired by a cable operator for distribution to customers"
[02:18:10] ncoredump: lol
[02:18:11] Netslayer: LLyric, seriously, they put me on "customer education training" i would have been so pissed if a guy showed up to do that!
[02:18:34] ncoredump: pesky infacrtions
[02:18:46] Netslayer: heh
[02:19:06] ncoredump: mythtv is just giving me the camel now ;(
[02:19:14] ** Netslayer just got his projector mounted and is infront of a 100" hd screen **
[02:19:26] ncoredump: i just gave it a super high gain aerial, and so super long time outs
[02:19:32] ncoredump: and it still refuses to tango
[02:19:59] ** LLyric watches tv from his laptop, while his kid watches a movie, while wifey watches a recording from her office; all from the same mythtv box. **

[02:20:09] Netslayer: nice
[02:20:38] Netslayer: ya honeslty i have my DVI plugged into my Myth Box, could care less about the cable box..although I like to have something I pay for work
[02:21:25] ncoredump: yeah but its not funny guys
[02:21:32] ncoredump: Kafifne has been doing it since 05
[02:21:56] ** LLyric notes the cpu laod on his myth box is about 60% (of a celeron 566!) **
[02:21:59] ncoredump: and its just cause of this damn scanning bullshit
[02:22:11] ** LLyric lafs **
[02:22:15] LLyric: hardware mpeg rules
[02:22:45] Gogga: grrrh =(
[02:23:23] LLyric: most of the cpu is used to play the video, pvr-350 sucks for non-native recordings
[02:27:19] Netslayer: i can't believe it takes me like 90% cpu of a 3200 amd64 to playback hdtv
[02:27:55] LLyric: Yeah, a bit of a disincentive, eh>
[02:28:04] Netslayer: does anyone know how to get the ac3 pass through working? when i checkmark it in mythtv my reciever gets this distorted high pitch sound
[02:28:20] Netslayer: ya i had to kill it recording in analog cause it was choppy in playback heh
[02:28:55] Netslayer: in a perfect world my firewire would be allowed to record all the 10 year old star trek episodes without them thinking i'll somehow pirate them
[02:29:16] LLyric: and the content you download off the net would work well, too? :)
[02:29:28] Netslayer: heh ya

[03:26:24] Netslayer: can you describe what you want in a little more detail?
[03:26:43] Netslayer: the box that you have the video card to output to your TV needs to run the frontend
[03:27:21] Netslayer: any box given enough power should have the backend.. and can be the same as the one that has the frontend
[03:28:41] cliffd: Netslayer: sorry for not being clear. I would like to put the tunner card and tv out/video card in the backend and have the frontend just be for the dvd player and remote control, but based on what you said above that is not possible.

[03:32:17] cliffd: im trying to figure out what to buy for the frontend
[03:32:22] Netslayer: ya if you want to keep tuner and video out card (to watch tv) in the same box you will have to run frontend and backend
[03:32:25] cliffd: so in the end I would have 2.
[03:33:07] cliffd: but that would have to be the box that handles the remote control as well right? no way to make the frontend not have the tv out
[03:33:09] cliffd: ?
[03:33:31] Netslayer: frontend = tv out
[03:33:49] Netslayer: the mythfrontend is the program that runs in X11 to visually work it (GUI)
[03:34:29] cliffd: ah.

[11:20:16] RaYmAn-Bx: dorel_: possibly not..are there other errors when you comment them out or does it simply not work? the name: thing has been removed completely in 2.6.16..the id: is still there, but the I2C_DRIVERID_EXP3 is an experiemental id which was also removed..
[11:20:24] _dante: i have installed mythtv-database but it says "half-configured
[11:20:25] _dante: "
[11:20:40] RaYmAn-Bx: dorel_: you might want to set the id to I2C_DRIVERID_INFRARED ..I2C InfraRed on Video Boards sounds about right doesn't it?
[11:25:25] _dante: ok I want to set up the mysql database or/and find out where it could already be. system is debian sarge 3.1
[11:25:37] _dante: anyone willing to help?
[11:27:28] _dante: I am in the right channel because I need this to set up mythtv-database
[11:30:48] allmanj (allmanj!n=john@cpc1-tall6-4-0-cust68.dbln.cable.ntl.com) has joined #mythtv-users
[11:34:18] allmanj: hey – i know this is stupid, but how do i actually edit a recording? I've got the editing screen to come up and have marked the ads by doing "delete after this frame" and "delete before this frame". But, though it's marked red, i don't see a way to actually get rid of it...
[11:36:35] _dante: i would help ya – but nobody seems to be able to tell me how to set up the database for mythtv-database package... sorry
[11:36:49] _dante: i won't get it working if I can't figure out that
[11:38:23] allmanj: sorry _dante – i used knoppmyth. That was all taken care of for me by the installer
[11:38:37] UBL: allmanj, press "e" while watching to edit , and "z" to load auto-detected commercials
[11:38:53] allmanj: UBL: no keyboard. I'm using the remote only
[11:38:56] UBL: and in settings somewhere, set to auto skip maked commercials
[11:39:17] _dante: knoppmyth?
[11:39:23] UBL: you bind a key to m on your remote?
[11:39:24] _dante: wtf?
[11:39:55] allmanj: _dante: http://mysettopbox.tv/ distro specifically designed for mythtv. Based on knoppix
[11:40:05] UBL: commercials arent actually removed or deleted, they are just skipped/fast forwarded
[11:41:04] UBL: _dante, did you look at that link i pasted above?
[11:41:22] allmanj: UBL: i'll look for the skip setting. But i thought there was a way to actually edit recording to trim out ads or any crap before or after the program?
[11:42:14] UBL: you can with a program called nuvexport
[11:42:31] UBL: but in mythtv, the commercials are just skipped over
[11:43:01] _dante: ubl – uhm, yeah, well thankx
[11:43:18] allmanj: UBL: So when you mark something to be cut, it does nothing unless you tell it to auto-skip?
[11:43:28] UBL: allmanj, yea
[11:43:52] allmanj: UBL: that seems really odd. Even if you tell it to transcode the video?
[11:43:54] UBL: _dante, if you didnt look at the link, its basically this: "mysql < mc.sql"
[11:44:13] UBL: allmanj, yea
[11:44:34] _dante: well
[11:44:42] _dante: _UBL: that don't work
[11:44:44] UBL: it doesnt delete them cause auto-detect commercial breaks isnt allways 100%
[11:44:45] _dante: gives me an error
[11:45:11] UBL: what error?
[11:45:17] allmanj: UBL: sure, but using the editor, i would have thought there was a way to manually edit the video files. I assumed that's what it was for?
[11:45:37] _dante: _UBL file or directory not found
[11:45:48] _dante: _UBL but there's something more interesting, look:
[11:46:07] UBL: is mc.sql in the current dir you are typing the command in?
[11:46:29] _dante: _UBL mythtv-backend, that package, wants to set up the database for mythtv, but it can't because it uses the wrong password

[11:47:32] _dante: _UBL well than back to your way: where do I have do go (which directory) to set up the database?
[11:47:36] RaYmAn-Bx: _dante: this page seems to mention that you need a blank root password on mysql for it to work: http://www.mattmarsh.net/computing/pundit/mythtv.shtml
[11:48:01] _dante: well, so I do need to reinstall *what* to change the mysql password?
[11:48:07] Juski: allmanj: when you edit recordings with cutpoints from commflagging or manual editing, they can be trimmed as part of the export/transcode process. I edit shows & use lossless mpeg2 transcoding
[11:48:26] RaYmAn-Bx: _dante: look at the mysql documentation.
[11:48:32] allmanj: Juski: so you have to transcode to get rid of your cut points?
[11:48:41] Juski: _dante: if you cant remember your mysql password, google for 'lost mysql password'
[11:48:54] UBL: mc.sql file is with the source to mythtv
[11:49:04] Juski: allmanj: yes, otherwise myth will just skip them or notify you of them (or do nothing)
[11:49:09] allmanj: _dante: For root, it's probably blank. it's blank by default
[11:49:24] _dante: _allmanj well i changed it to mysql
[11:49:30] _dante: how can I change it again?
[11:49:30] allmanj: Juski: sounds good – i'll look at it. Thanks
[11:49:33] _dante: I don know it
[11:49:47] Juski: _dante: look at the mysql documentation
[11:49:54] ncd2: dammmn
[11:49:57] _dante: thx
[11:49:58] Juski: I can see now why the devs are considering moving away from mysql
[11:49:59] ncd2: this is getting absurd
[11:50:09] RaYmAn-Bx: _dante: you could bother to google. "mysql password change" gives tons of results
[11:50:09] _dante: sorry ncd2
[11:50:19] ncd2: THe backend falls down more times then a broolyn hore's draws
[11:50:28] _dante: yea well – sorry for acting dumbass-ish

[11:50:42] _dante: cya
[11:50:46] _dante: thx anyway people
[11:50:48] allmanj: Juski: they are? To postgres? I would have expected better performance from mysql – lower overhead
[11:50:49] _dante: you've been help to me
[11:50:55] Juski: run mythbackend in a terminal window

[11:51:57] Zider: oh, I can get rid of mysql then? nice :)
[11:52:09] ncd2: strange
[11:52:11] allmanj: Juski: seems like a lot more work than using a database. They'd have to write a lot of code. Would have though even sqlite would be better
[11:52:19] Juski: "Abstract the SQL database somehow?"
[11:52:21] ncd2: are the init scripts bashed on debian or something
[11:53:29] Juski: anyway, more people should know about mythdora. knoppmyth isn't for everyone, and not everybody can be bothered with getting to know all the know-how
[11:54:32] allmanj: Juski: never heard of mythdora...
[11:54:49] Juski: it's not as hard as a lot of people make out, and loads of folks should get less petulent when things don't 'just work'. fucking ignorance does people no favours
[11:55:16] Juski: allmanj: google it ;-)
[11:58:16] allmanj: Juski: Will do. You recommend it over knoppmyth?
[12:00:04] allmanj: The audio seems quiet when i'm watching tv. Is there some way to boost it? alsa volume control has it way up already
[12:02:43] UBL: try f10 or f11
[12:02:57] allmanj: UBL: No keyboard
[12:03:19] allmanj: UBL: i can ssh into the machine though
[12:03:22] UBL: so make a key on yoru remote for f11 and f10
[12:03:45] allmanj: UBL: if that's the volume up and volume down, i have that to 100% already
[12:04:07] ncd2: wow

[16:26:26] mchou: unionfs cant write files across more than one HD, what exactly does that mean?
[16:27:05] mchou: unionfs is supposed to merge multiple branches under one namespace.
[16:27:45] mchou: it doesnt really do disk spanning, a la lvm.
[16:29:01] AngryElf: maybe i understood it wrong, i was told it was suppose to do that
[16:29:36] mchou: if you're saying /mnt/unionfs includes /mnt/hdc & /mnt/hdd, and wasn't able to write anything on the /mnt/hdd branch, that's rather incredible

[17:18:52] rvalente: AngryElf: any ideas

[18:28:36] rhacer: I have ability to buy a 1Tb Lacie NAS device for $200.
[18:28:44] rhacer: so I'd likely use NFS or SMB.
[18:28:51] Juski: prolly only SMB
[18:29:13] rhacer: I don't have a GigE network though only 100Mb.
[18:29:36] Zider: nfs is too unflexible imo
[18:29:47] rhacer: I'm happy to use SMB.

[18:31:11] rhacer: what's fuse-smb?
[18:31:33] Zider: rhacer: simply put, it mouhts the entore workgroup in a dir
[18:31:36] Zider: entire
[18:31:41] rhacer: ahhhh.
[18:31:54] kormoc: Erm, isn't it the filesystem user space extention?
[18:31:55] Zider: rhacer: so you can mount all sharing compuuters' all shared folders :D
[18:31:56] rhacer: so thumbs up or thumbs down on the Lacie?
[18:31:57] rvalente: could gcc 4.1 be breaking mysql connector with qt and mythtv?
[18:32:31] Zider: kormoc: Filesystem in User SpacE (I think)
[18:32:47] kormoc: yeah, it's not really a mount the entire workgroup in a dir then is it?
[18:33:02] Zider: kormoc: fuse-smb is..
[18:33:22] Zider: kormoc: it uses fuse to mount smb workgroups
[18:33:26] Zider: basically :P
[18:33:27] kormoc: I thought it was just to allow you to mount SMB shares without the SMB kernel module
[18:33:27] Juski: what's wrong with just regular samba?
[18:33:46] kormoc: Juski, well, you don't need sambe for just mounting shares
[18:33:52] kormoc: it's just handly :)
[18:33:53] Zider: Juski: it tends to bug out if the sharing system is rebooted during file access
[18:34:17] ** kormoc thinks NFS would be the better solution if it's there **
[18:34:27] Juski: rhacer: with one system, and up to about 4 frontends you'd not have any performance issues, even with HDTV I expect
[18:34:50] rhacer: Thank you Juski, that is the kind of input I was looking for!
[18:35:02] Juski: unless the Lacie box is a real PoS
[18:35:17] rhacer: the reviews I've seen have been pretty good.

[19:07:10] vallor: are you using alsa?
[19:07:24] mycroes: yes
[19:07:52] vallor: you've check alsamixer to make sure the capture line is selected?
[19:08:06] vallor: (regarding using the external cable)
[19:08:38] vallor: do alsamixer -c (whichever card, 0, 1, whichever) then use f5 to expose the capture devices
[19:09:14] mycroes: yeah it's set as capture now...
[19:10:03] vallor: hmm

[19:15:17] mycroes: it's just the one setting in mythtv-setup?
[19:15:36] vallor: yes indeed
[19:15:48] vallor: under capture card
[19:15:53] mycroes: why do you have it set to /dev/dsp2?

[19:16:21] vallor: that's where my onboard dsp shows up on that box, which is where I have the cable box plugged into line in
[19:17:05] vallor: my /dev/dsp0 is an audigy, /dev/dsp1 is the brooktree i2c (or is that i2o?) device, and /dev/dsp2 is the onboard intel/ac'97

[19:39:27] vallor: ouch
[19:39:37] Zider: I gave up on my onboard POS tho, and got an extra pci card :P
[19:40:09] mycroes: POS?

[19:41:35] Zider: to get some nice quality sound and good functionality :P
[19:41:47] mycroes: I had a sb live
[19:41:57] mycroes: it was nothing better than any of my other sound cards
[19:42:10] mycroes: there's just a slight tad better quality
[19:42:15] mycroes: not worth the money
[19:43:18] Zider: mycroes: well, I'm sure the drivers are better tho.. I can't get all audio out the spdif port without heck of a lot of fiddling and tweaking :P
[19:43:49] mycroes: lol
[19:43:53] Zider: works fine in my other system, with intel-hda
[19:43:56] mycroes: yeah that might be true "{
[19:43:58] mycroes: *:P
[19:44:17] mycroes: I'm using myth on my ASUS S-presso barebone
[19:44:32] mycroes: the biggest problem is I might want a second tuner card
[19:44:33] Zider: ah, this is an ASUS p4p800
[19:44:42] mycroes: and there's just one pci slot...
[19:44:47] Zider: ouch :P
[19:44:49] mycroes: the board in the s-presso is a p4p8t
[19:45:12] Zider: so it's like mine but cut shorter then ;)
[19:45:33] mycroes: :P
[19:46:04] Zider: both my "main" system has asus mb's
[19:46:33] mycroes: I don't really have any main systems :p
[19:46:38] mycroes: I have a laptop
[19:46:44] mycroes: a desktop with cheap parts
[19:46:47] mycroes: and my barebone
[19:46:48] Zider: heh
[19:46:55] mycroes: and an athlon 800 as server
[19:47:41] Zider: most "good" stuff I got goes into "sunclub", my very main system.. router, dns, rsync, file share, workstation, game system...
[19:47:54] mycroes: but still with all those machines I can't get my sound set up properly in myth ;)
[19:47:56] Zider: then I got the laptop and the mythbox
[19:48:54] Zider: the extra sound card for recording audio wouldn't be needed if the tuner on my tv card wasn't fried
[19:49:08] Zider: so I need to have a VCR to change channel, and record thru svideo + sound card
[19:50:04] mycroes: lol
[19:50:33] mycroes: hmmmm...
[19:50:36] Juski: cheap gear != value for money
[19:50:40] Zider: but as soon as I get a new tv card with functional tuner, the extra sound card goes out again :D
[19:50:42] mycroes: maybe I could use my vcr as second tuner
