[02:49:20] jerky_2: semee, you using cable TV or antenna TV?
[02:49:36] semee: I have cable tv connected but not through the cable box right now
[02:49:39] semee: do I need that?
[02:50:13] jerky_2: it's your choice, choose us-cable if you want the channels to line up with what your cable provider offers, or us-bcast if you want the channels to match what is broadcast over the air in your area
[02:51:20] [LiFE]: what's a good sound card for myth?
[02:51:39] [LiFE]: m-audio revolution?
[02:51:41] jams: the chaintech 710 works well
[02:51:48] jerky_2: i just use onboard audio
[02:51:50] jams: so does the m-audio
[02:52:26] jams: [LiFE]- do you plan on spdif out?
[02:52:30] semee: ok us-cable it is
[02:52:47] semee: I'm going to try and reload the dvb drivers to see if the v4l drivers were conflicting
[02:52:49] [LiFE]: no..
[02:52:56] [LiFE]: just analog 5.1

[02:53:54] [LiFE]: just doesn't look pretty
[02:54:07] semee: [LiFE]: I had the same problem
[02:54:14] semee: [LiFE]: have you tried tvtime...
[02:54:23] semee: I loaded both and tvtime looked great as far as picture quality
[02:54:26] semee: not sure how
[02:54:34] [LiFE]: tvtime?
[02:54:55] semee: yeah check it out
[02:55:52] [LiFE]: not going to help. :(
[02:56:07] [LiFE]: especially if both audio and tvtuner card doesn't work in linux in the first place
[02:56:32] dev: then i doubt you got mythtv working with your tuner card
[02:56:40] [LiFE]: I got it, just choppy
[02:56:43] [LiFE]: using V4L
[02:57:00] [LiFE]: and no hardware encoder support
[02:57:19] dev: so it works, just not well :)
[02:57:34] Beirdo: xris: what's the site for checking for HDTV OTA coverage again?
[02:57:52] [LiFE]: sames goes for the onboard audio for A8N-VM CSM, the AD1986A chipset works, but only 2 channel audio
[02:59:16] [LiFE]: I am starting to respect RealTEK audio chips alittle more each passing day
[02:59:18] semee: what should I see if I'm using dtvsignal 2
[02:59:27] semee: it basically shows me Signal: 000 .
[02:59:30] semee: not sure what that is
[03:00:08] semee: it would appear that means the signal strength is 0

[03:06:58] sunnyhours4130: Aid`: Looks like for each grab, the progress bar thing isn't making it to the end. usually stops about a quarter of the way down

[03:11:10] semee: its trying to upload the firmware that has to be the issue
[03:13:19] [LiFE]: I just saw something interesting..
[03:13:22] [LiFE]: about my soundcar
[03:13:38] semee: where do I put the firmware drivers for the pcHDTV card? I have it in /lib/firmware
[03:15:17] [LiFE]: one last question... does MythTV plays MKV(OGG/H264) and MP4 files?
[03:15:26] [LiFE]: or divx and stuff, coz none of mines seems to work

[04:17:09] marmoset: neat
[04:17:10] tank-man: LoneShadow, the main faq/howto one tells what you need
[04:17:32] Aid`: if you guys hook up cable to your mythbox does ur tv signal get tied up?
[04:17:38] xris: I actually bought a dvb card back when I still had Dish, but their diseqc switch is incompatible with computer stuff
[04:17:47] xris: Aid`: digital cable box -> firewire
[04:18:05] xris: and even if it was analog, no. just split the signal
[04:18:06] marmoset: xris: did you try cable -> dvb ?
[04:18:11] Aid`: so you can watch 2 different channel?
[04:18:13] xris: no.. not compatible
[04:18:20] xris: Aid`: if I had a second HD box, yes.
[04:18:25] xris: or if I had analog and two tuners.
[04:18:31] Aid`: for the same price?
[04:18:33] Aid`: GOD DIRECTV SUX
[04:18:47] marmoset: xris: really? seems to be working here, was just curious about signal quality/decoding issues with pchdtv vs firewire
[04:18:57] xris: marmoset: pchdtv != dvb
[04:19:03] marmoset: oh
[04:19:10] ** marmoset still doesn't really know all of it **
[04:19:13] xris: it just happens to use the dvb driver as an interface
[04:19:15] Aid`: so how does HDTV look? i never seen it bvefore
[04:19:16] marmoset: ah, gotcha
[04:19:25] marmoset: xris: didn't you have a pchdtv tho?
[04:19:30] marmoset: I could be misremembering
[04:19:30] xris: I had an air2pc
[04:19:32] marmoset: ah ok
[04:19:34] marmoset: cool
[04:19:35] xris: gave it to Beirdo
[04:19:42] mchou: Aid`: walk into any circuit city :)
[04:19:42] Aid`: what did that do xris
[04:19:58] xris: Aid`: air2pc is just another hdtv card for over the air hdtv
[04:20:04] Aid`: mchou: the closest is 100miles away
[04:20:14] Aid`: yeah i dont have any hdtv around here :xz
[04:20:19] mchou: Aid`: where you live? Alaska?
[04:20:32] Aid`: the upper part of michigan, the upper penninsula
[04:20:41] xris: marmoset: with firewire, I get all channels in digital, even the sd stuff.
[04:20:58] marmoset: xris: yeah, I've got that going now, for the ones that offer it
[04:21:00] mchou: Aid`: umm, MI must be depressed
[04:21:14] Aid`: the lower penninsula is fine but it stinks up here
[04:21:20] mchou: not to have CC for over 100mi.
[04:21:25] xris: marmoset: really? I thought you could only get the OTA and digital stuff.
[04:21:28] ** kormoc laughs **
[04:21:31] xris: Aid`: cable
[04:21:45] xris: marmoset: this way, I get hbo, etc.
[04:21:48] kormoc: Aid`, it's more the insane druggies in MI that are the sucky part
[04:21:55] Aid`: once i graduate highschool and then college im off to a bigger city
[04:21:56] marmoset: xris: that's what I meant, sorry, just that I've got the broadcast channels in digital, not just the hdtv channels
[04:22:14] marmoset: xris: I've just got an unreasonable prejudice against firewire, I dunno why ;)
[04:22:27] xris: marmoset: all of our broadcast channels here are HD (well, *when* they're hd)
[04:22:30] mchou: Aid`: why not jumpstart that process by going to college in big town :)
[04:22:31] xris: heh
[04:22:44] marmoset: xris: yeah, plus the like 12 kcts ones ;)
[04:22:47] xris: yes

[04:23:13] mchou: Aid`: which school is that?
[04:23:25] marmoset: xris: so what if you want more than one firewire box, will they give you more than one?
[04:23:26] xris: and the stupid king5 one that always shows the camera on the space needle and a traffic/weather scroller
[04:23:27] Aid`: top ten school for technology: Michigan Tech University
[04:23:39] mchou: Aid`: never heard of it
[04:23:40] xris: marmoset: sure. you just have to pay the $10/month rental fee for an HD box
[04:23:53] marmoset: xris: ah, ok, so you do have to have the HD service?
[04:24:00] marmoset: I have digital cable, but not hdtv
[04:24:11] Aid`: im starting to think it might just be easier to get a Tivo than doing it this way
[04:24:11] xris: HD is the box, not the service.
[04:24:19] xris: you get HD with all the digital packages.
[04:24:25] marmoset: ah
[04:24:35] xris: if you want to experiment, standard -> hd is only a $5 upgrade.
[04:24:39] marmoset: it's so weird how it's all so black magic and messages whispered between each other or whatever
[04:24:42] xris: it's $5 for a second box and $5 for an hd upgrade to that box
[04:25:10] mchou: I dont think a 2nd box is worth it economically
[04:25:23] xris: mchou: unless you're like me and want one to watch tv and one for mythtv.

[04:27:10] Aid`: how big are 30miunte HDTV shows?
[04:27:12] xris: mchou: sure I will. most of the shows I watch don't come in HD
[04:27:21] xris: Aid`: for 1080i, it's about 9.6G per hour
[04:27:23] Aid`: using mythtv
[04:27:26] marmoset: xris: it actually works great most of the time, then something happens and mythbackend goes crazy and uses all the cpu it can get, shows don't stop recording for hours because the threads are all too busy to stop, etc
[04:27:38] xris: marmoset: heh
[04:27:53] marmoset: quality's nice tho
[04:28:02] xris: yes
[04:28:08] Aid`: wow that is insane xris
[04:28:09] mchou: marmoset: that 'something' is probably mythcommflag chokingon a bad stream
[04:28:16] marmoset: mchou: maybe
[04:28:27] marmoset: I think transcode is more likely tho
[04:28:30] xris: Aid`: that's what HD is... the signal is digital already, so all recordings are pretty much the same size
[04:29:32] marmoset: mchou: it's pretty bad tho, all system cpu, futex stuff I think, hard to really do much debugging
[04:29:47] mchou: marmoset: just swith to firewire already
[04:29:47] Aid`: i got a quick question: i went to 'POST RECORDING PROCESS' then i made it say "TRANSCODE NEW RECORDINGS" then "TRANSCODE USING AUTO-DETECT"
[04:29:54] mchou: switch*
[04:29:56] Aid`: so that will capture a show then encode it right away?
[04:30:10] marmoset: mchou: the stuff I read said that firewire had more errors if anything
[04:30:12] mchou: marmoset: who is your cableco?
[04:30:15] marmoset: comcast
[04:30:25] mchou: marmoset: where you live?
[04:30:28] marmoset: seattle
[04:30:45] mchou: marmoset: hell ya, get firewire
[04:31:03] xris: Aid`: encode into what? "recording" is "encoding"
[04:31:27] mchou: marmoset: I dont think firewire is any worse than pc HDTV tuners
[04:31:29] Aid`: i mean will it transcode right away
[04:31:34] marmoset: mchou: I may look at it, I've already spent my "messing around time" on mythtv for a month or two
[04:31:36] marmoset: never enough time ;)
[04:31:55] mchou: marmoset: what ver kernel you using?
[04:32:33] marmoset: for the hdtv test machine, 2.6.15-chw-2
[04:32:36] marmoset: (knoppmyth)
[04:32:38] mchou: marmoset: if you use a recent enough kernel firewire is pretty much plug and play
[04:32:53] Aid`: so with those settings it will 'transcode' and the file will be smaller?
[04:32:54] marmoset: yeah, I just don't like it ;)
[04:32:59] marmoset: no reason for it
[04:33:06] xris: Aid`: that depends on what your transcode settings are
[04:33:22] xris: pretty sure that "auto detect" means that it will just cut out the commercials (which you wouldn't have marked yet)
[04:33:31] Aid`: i didn't set any
[04:33:45] xris: and transcode != smaller... transcode == different. smaller depends on your settings.
[04:34:04] xris: Aid`: what type of tuner card?
[04:34:04] Aid`: there's "auto detect"
[04:34:05] Aid`: "high quality"
[04:34:05] Aid`: "medium quality
[04:34:05] Aid`: "low"

[04:34:23] mchou: sigh
[04:35:20] marmoset: I wish that computer hardware would freeze, and there would be no more new development, just bugfixes, for like a year
[04:35:26] xris: Aid`: with software encode, just encode at lower quality to start with.
[04:35:28] marmoset: that would make me happy.
[04:35:49] Aid`: xris: how do i encode it lower to start with?
[04:35:52] mchou: marmoset: umm, it's easy. dont buy any new HW :)
[04:35:59] xris: Aid`: recording profiles.
[04:36:04] marmoset: mchou: if only that were possible.
[04:36:05] mchou: marmoset: that'd be a freeze

[04:37:10] xris: well, you have 3 choices, though.
[04:37:11] marmoset: freebsd used to be like that
[04:37:18] xris: wouldn't recommend anything else for enterprise use, anyway.
[04:37:24] marmoset: yeah, totally
[04:37:25] Aid`: xris: how do i set it
[04:37:40] xris: Aid`: it should be pretty self explanatory...
[04:38:00] Aid`: if it was would i be asking
[04:38:05] xris: livetv + default + high + low.... go into each of those and set them up.

[04:38:23] Aid`: ok..
[04:38:26] xris: Aid`: then ask a more specific question like "what does bitrate mean?"
[04:38:30] Aid`: then how do i make it go to one of them?
[04:38:36] Aid`: i know what bitrate is
[04:38:37] xris: "make it go..."?
[04:38:49] xris: you choose the profile when you schedule a recording.
[04:38:59] xris: it's one of the options you have to choose. otherwise, it goes to, well, default...
[04:39:09] marmoset: Aid`: I'd really recommend just playing with mythtv for a week, then asking questions
[04:39:10] xris: unless you're watching live tv, in which case it's LiveTV
[04:39:11] Aid`: ok
[04:39:17] marmoset: Aid`: it's a complicated system ;)
[04:39:19] Aid`: sorry :s
[04:39:22] marmoset: no problem
[04:39:28] Aid`: it can be until you get the hang of it
[04:39:31] marmoset: just saying, it's a lot of stuff to learn, easiest hands on
[04:40:41] Aid`: so i should mess with
[04:40:42] Aid`: "Post recording Processing"
[04:40:46] Aid`: shouldn't**
[04:40:48] miwl: xris: just skimmed your FTA stuff above. Unless you know something I don't, I don't think you can use a Dish Network dish for FTA.
[04:40:55] xris: Aid`: not until you know about the pre-recording setup stuff
[04:41:05] xris: miwl: a dish is a dish
[04:41:28] Aid`: ok ill shutup now :P
[04:41:53] Aid`: thank you all for being so patient w/me
[04:41:58] miwl: xris: that would be news to me. Everything I've read indicates you need at minimum a 80cm (~31in) dish
[04:41:59] mchou: miwl: what do you mean you cant use Dish for FTA?
[04:42:02] xris: Aid`: that's why we're here
[04:42:21] Aid`: ;)
[04:42:28] xris: miwl: depends on the signal you want to receive. I'd be connecting to Dish's satellites.. works fine with 18" dish
[04:42:39] mchou: miwl: how big is a Dish dish?
[04:42:43] miwl: xris: that's not FTA then
[04:42:48] miwl: 18"
[04:42:54] xris: miwl: sure it si
[04:43:10] miwl: how is that *free* to air?
[04:43:13] xris: FTA means no no encryption. there are FTA channels on the dishnetwork ssatellites
[04:43:31] Aid`: so if im using regular tv (non highdef) what is the recommended widthXheight
[04:43:57] xris: Aid`: the biggest that your computer can handle encoding, and the smallest that still looks good.
[04:43:59] miwl: xris: oh, their new mpeg4 streams?
[04:44:02] xris: 480x480 is a good default
[04:44:13] xris: miwl: dish uses mpeg2 dvb
[04:44:15] Aid`: ok i had it on 640X480, is that bad?
[04:44:18] xris: Aid`: no

[04:44:37] xris: Aid`: just play around. see how your changes look and take what you think looks best.
[04:44:43] mchou: xris: I though they had new mp4
[04:44:49] Aid`: your right
[04:44:54] mchou: thought*
[04:44:58] xris: mchou: maybe experimental... most of their stuff is still mpeg2
[04:45:00] Aid`: im gunna run 3 or 4 shows tonight and see how they look tomorrow
[04:45:03] xris: mpeg4 is directv
[04:45:03] miwl: xris: As far as I know, they only have a preview channel in the clear and their new satellite that has, I believe, a couple mpeg4 HD channels
[04:45:31] Aid`: so anyone here watch smallville?
[04:45:51] miwl: xris: so what is FTA on dish?
[04:45:57] WAR_CH|LD (WAR_CH|LD!n=barn@bccsvr01.soho.on.net) has quit ()
[04:46:16] mchou: miwl: so you're saying there is really NO FTA on dish?
[04:46:24] Aid`: be back in 10hours
[04:46:34] xris: miwl: check out dish 119. bunch of music stuff, nasa channel.
[04:46:45] mchou: miwl: basically everything is encrypted?
[04:46:48] xris: bellexpressvu has more on their stuff (they're the canadian branch of echostar)
[04:46:57] miwl: mchou: I didn't think so. I guess just the couple xris just mentioned
[04:48:00] miwl: xris: I guess if you have the dish and don't want to buy another. Seems it would make much more sense to point it at a true FTA sat otherwise
[04:48:32] xris: miwl: again... I can point the dish wherever I want.
[04:49:05] mchou: xris: yeah, but will it recieve :)
[04:49:18] xris: mchou: it should just fine, depending on the signal
[04:49:20] miwl: Don't think it will work though
[04:49:42] mchou: miwl: what's street price of 31" these days?
[04:50:41] xris: mchou: around $99
[04:51:03] miwl: sounds about right, I would have to look
[04:51:03] xris: sorry, $120 + shipping from cyberestore
[04:51:25] xris: $65 for an offset one. guess it just depends on what you want
[04:51:41] xris: ahh, the $120 one is elliptical
[04:52:42] mchou: my neighbor has FTA. I should ask him
[04:53:19] mchou: huge dish in front of his house though
[04:53:33] xris: mine do, too.. big ugly dish stuck to the back wall of their house.

[04:54:03] marmoset: xris: that means you have to have a bigger uglier dish
[04:54:16] xris: marmoset: I have a wife who doesn't like the 18" one.
[04:54:25] marmoset: hehe
[04:54:32] xris: I have just enough room on my house to mostly hide the 18" one. can't go bigger
[04:54:39] marmoset: yeah, I've been pretty much forbidden to go to dish
[04:55:31] xris: miwl: I know people who have this set up.
[04:55:41] xris: oops, replying to old comment in scrollback
[04:56:21] miwl: xris: just wanted to point out that you wouldn't get much, but you seem to know that.
[04:56:25] miwl: http://www.satelliteguys.us/showthread.php?t=34131
[04:56:38] miwl: not an impressive list
[04:56:38] xris: miwl: yeah, this is more just to play around with than anything else.
[04:56:49] xris: I already have the dvb card (got it back when I was still connected to dish)
[04:57:18] miwl: that's why I was looking into a FTA setup
[04:57:25] semee: ok so I finally got the firmware to load for my pcHDTV-3000 card
[04:57:26] semee: :)
[04:57:37] semee: but still I can't get any video

[05:04:40] J-e-f-f-A: Hi guys – recovering my system after a system HDD crash. My LVM 'data' volumes seemed fine, but after re-booting, now several directories show the owner/group as "? ?" — any way to fix? even root says "Permission denied" when I try to do a chown...
[05:05:03] mchou: J-e-f-f-A: ouch!
[05:05:04] J-e-f-f-A: [sorry,kinda OT, but it is a Myth backend...]
[05:05:15] kormoc: have you tried fscking it?
[05:05:31] marmoset: J-e-f-f-A: my guess is that you've lost more data than you're thinking, in the form of data corruption
[05:05:32] mchou: J-e-f-f-A: what filesystem is this?
[05:05:43] J-e-f-f-A: yeah, it's JFS... did it with the right fsck, and it said no issues...
[05:05:49] kormoc: ooh
[05:05:51] kormoc: ickyness
[05:05:52] J-e-f-f-A: I should probably try it again, eh?

[05:06:15] marmoset: I was going to suggest chattr
[05:06:20] marmoset: I dunno what that does with jfs tho
[05:06:47] marmoset: if jfs has the idea of immutable files and all that, that's probably what's up
[05:07:10] kormoc: J-e-f-f-A, try the -f flag, but keep in mind, it could wipe all your data rather then fixing it...
[05:07:14] J-e-f-f-A: Ick... Just tried a jfs_fsck again, and it reported :
[05:07:19] mchou: J-e-f-f-A: you sure the user/group still exists? :)
[05:07:21] J-e-f-f-A: Superblock is corrupt and cannot be repaired
[05:07:21] J-e-f-f-A: since both primary and secondary copies are corrupt.

[05:07:43] mchou: J-e-f-f-A: there's your answer
[05:07:57] kormoc: Yeah... that would make sense
[05:08:03] semee: ok so I believe my dvb card is set up correctly... can anyone help me figure out how to test
[05:08:06] J-e-f-f-A: mchou: it was owned by mythtv... but that was before I re-built the system on a new hdd. The directories were there when i first recovered the system... ARRGGHHH

[05:10:19] J-e-f-f-A: marmoset: What would you say is a 'large file' — most of my SD recordings are 1.6GB, HD ar 3+GB...
[05:10:30] dev: hehe... all filesystems work great when they work fine
[05:10:32] kormoc: those are large files imho
[05:10:36] dev: its when they crash you find out who the real winners are
[05:10:37] marmoset: J-e-f-f-A: yeah, those are large files. the problem is really with deleting more than anything else
[05:10:45] kormoc: the only main issue with ext3 is yeah, delete time
[05:10:56] kormoc: it takes about 2 to 5 seconds to delete files
[05:11:06] semee: should I go through my cable box or plug the cable directly into my pcHDTV-3000 card?
[05:11:07] marmoset: dev: yeah, I liked the speed from xfs, especially with large files, but it just took one blow up for me to stop using it
[05:11:10] kormoc: and mine are around 800 megs or so
[05:12:03] J-e-f-f-A: neftune: That looks like it's for ResiserFS — Are you suggesting it would work for a JFS-formatted disk?
[05:12:29] kormoc: J-e-f-f-A, it's all about why filesystems and pc hardware suck
[05:12:34] kormoc: it's not really a recovery idea
[05:12:49] J-e-f-f-A: kormoc: Well, I could live with 2–5 seconds delete time...
[05:13:00] semee: when I do a cable scan all I get is "Timeout Scanning ATSC Channel .. — No Signal
[05:13:02] semee: any help
[05:13:27] kormoc: marmoset, so did they fix the large ext3 over lvm issue?
[05:13:45] neftune: J-e-f-f-A: read the note at the top
[05:13:56] kormoc: J-e-f-f-A, I would recommend going to ext3 then, as it's not *that* slow and nice and robust.
[05:13:57] marmoset: kormoc: I haven't had any issues with it, but I don't really push it hard. I have files up to ~6GB on mine and have no real issues
[05:14:22] marmoset: kormoc: hardware and computers do suck, I think all you have to do is work with enough of it to realize that ;)
[05:14:31] J-e-f-f-A: kormoc: Trust me, I know reliable non-pc hardware. I work with Tandem computer systems — Fault-tolerant 'mainframe-class' machines... Intel's latest ad says "We made the World's most reliable server even more reliable"...  ;-) 99.999% uptime...
[05:14:53] kormoc: marmoset, for a little while, there was major corruption issues on lvm arrays larger then 350 gb or so, I heard they fixed it as of 2.6.18, but I wasn't sure.
[05:14:58] J-e-f-f-A: kormoc: (They just transitioned from a MIPS processor to Intel Itanium)
[05:15:01] kormoc: J-e-f-f-A, heh, nifty
[05:15:49] marmoset: kormoc: ah, haven't seen that, I only use lvm on myth cuz I still don't really trust it so it doesn't go into important things :)
[05:16:11] J-e-f-f-A: Arrgh... Well, it looks like I may be re-formatting my video disk too... So what's the consensus for file system — do you guys think I should just use ext3, or stay with jfs?
[05:16:24] kormoc: I'd vote for ext3
[05:16:29] neftune: if you value your data, ext3
[05:16:39] marmoset: J-e-f-f-A: I always come back to ext3 for things that don't have a live backup
[05:16:54] J-e-f-f-A: Humm... it's unanimous so far...
[05:17:05] marmoset: I use xfs at work for a few things because of speed, but there's a live backup with ufs on freebsd, so I'm not too concerned
[05:17:37] mchou: hell, get a ups and stick with xfs
[05:17:52] mchou: end of problem :)
[05:17:55] marmoset: heh
[05:17:56] marmoset: if only ;)
[05:18:15] marmoset: I was getting xfs panics a while ago, had to reseed all 4TB
[05:18:25] J-e-f-f-A: Ok, it will be ext3. And if it's only 2–5 seconds per 'big file', then I'll live with that. (yeah, i've got a UPS, but it was my OS HDD that crashed... a ups doesn't help that!)

[05:19:56] kormoc: that would likely work well
[05:20:01] neftune: mchou: is there still "the XFS issue of zeroing all open files on an unclean shutdown"?
[05:20:10] kormoc: I would use rsnapshot to network backup
[05:20:35] mchou: neftune: on the myth video part why would you care?
[05:20:50] mchou: neftune: so you lose a few recordings
[05:20:58] mchou: neftune: bfd
[05:21:09] dev: heh
[05:21:17] dev: you sure make alot of friends here
[05:22:20] J-e-f-f-A: I don't care so much about the videos, but it's a pain to have lost 600GB... It initially survived, but something happened to corrupt it when I was re-building the system. Initially all the directories on my LVM disk were there and OK, but 3/4 of them are owned by "?" now... ick...
[05:22:22] mchou: dev: no, if you dont have an answer for that, dont bother. You and your 500 hrs of recordings that you'll never get to watch
[05:23:06] J-e-f-f-A: mchou, dev: Well, I had 600+ hours too, and my family watches too, not just me...
[05:23:47] mchou: J-e-f-f-A: 600 GB loss may not have been strictly a xfs "problem"

[05:26:41] J-e-f-f-A: mchou, dev: If he only works 40hrs/wk, then he's in the minority... My company expects 50+/wk
[05:26:52] marmoset: 50 hours a week would be nice
[05:26:53] marmoset: ;)
[05:27:02] marmoset: I'd love to cut back to that, I'd have so much free time ;)
[05:27:19] mchou: J-e-f-f-A: my point exactly. Dev is LIVING with his mom if he has time to watch 500 hrs of TV :)
[05:27:21] J-e-f-f-A: marmoset: Maybe if you're hourly! If your Salaried, then it's a pain...
[05:27:44] dev: actually my job allows me to work from home several days a week, so on my tri-monitor setup i watch tv on one head while working on the other 2
[05:27:51] dev: perks of being a valuable employee :)

[05:28:27] xris: marmoset: simech is great. 40 hours/week. no more, no less
[05:28:32] dev: though i still dont watch 500hrs of tv, as stated before thats just the room to record
[05:28:35] dev: =)
[05:28:42] xris: granted, I probably work a little more than that just because I like my job.
[05:28:42] marmoset: xris: nice, haven't done that in like 7–8 years
[05:28:46] xris: I know that kormoc does

[05:30:10] marmoset: it's pretty funny, I only found out about them from this channel, we went through a lot of crappy vendors before them
[05:30:15] mchou: dev: lol

[05:31:06] marmoset: the one thing dell has going for them is the remote management
[05:31:24] marmoset: but the only reason we need the remote management is becuase they lock up so much, so..

[05:32:45] Dagmar: There's nothing quite so useful as being able to interrupt straight into BIOS
[05:32:46] marmoset: Dagmar: yeah, the remote power cycles are nice though.
[05:33:42] Dagmar: marmoset: On sun boxes you can (and I did, frequently) kick the serial port, tell it to boot off the network, and install a whole different configuratio over TFTP/BOOTP
[05:33:45] xris: J-e-f-f-A: will be hiring a new purchasing person soon
[05:34:03] Dagmar: I don't think Dell's quite gotten the remote installs working to that degree yet
[05:34:13] Dagmar: Hopfully someone x86 will soon tho
[05:34:24] marmoset: Dagmar: it essentially is, and yah, pc hardware is still trying to catch up to that level of stuff
[05:34:29] Dagmar: It saves a lot of bloody trips to remote facilities
[05:34:46] marmoset: but it's there now, just maybe not as clean
[05:35:05] J-e-f-f-A: xris: You guys are in Washington, right? That would be a bit of a commute from the Boston area!  ;-)
[05:35:25] Dagmar: marmoset: The Dell stuff works when the hard drive is blank? That would definitely be an improvement
[05:35:51] xris: J-e-f-f-A: yeah, just a bit
[05:36:20] Dagmar: marmoset: Our remote installs at iawk were just a matter of having one of the local people plug the box into the portmonster and the network, and plugging in power. Everything from that point was handled through Jumpstart
[05:36:37] marmoset: Dagmar: eyeah, HD can be blank
[05:36:40] mchou: speaking of dell,anybody seen an opteron box yet from dell?
[05:36:42] marmoset: it's complete console takeover
[05:36:44] J-e-f-f-A: xris: I'm liking AJAX... Just getting started in it, but it's pretty cool. I can't wait to see the new mw...
[05:36:54] Dagmar: We populated 28 machines in Taipei in just under 45 minutes. I was so happy I wasn't oging ot have to fly out there
[05:37:24] marmoset: Dagmar: there's bugs in it (last time I tried the freebsd install floppy didn't work in the virtual floppy drive) but if you do netboot it's no problem

[05:38:27] marmoset: been a while ;)
[05:38:29] Dagmar: I wouldn't call it crufty. It just seems that x86 manufacturers have more or less forgotten BOOTP and TFTP exist
[05:38:56] mchou: Dagmar: huh??

[05:50:13] kormoc: jake[laptop], are you running a sound server of some sort? esd/artsd?
[05:50:37] kormoc: achew22, is it compiling?
[05:50:44] biffhero: I have a front end with a DVD drive, and when I try to 'rip DVD', I get "no jobs. Checking and/or waiting for DVD." Am i supposed to import DVDs on the backend, or on the frontend?
[05:50:47] jake[laptop]: kormoc: it's a standard knoppmyth install – lemme see

[05:53:47] Cardoe: I know the horrible part is redundant since they're all horrible

[05:54:13] jake[laptop]: back
[05:54:53] jake[laptop]: am i right in thinking that dropped frames usually points to not enough cpu power to keep up

[05:55:05] kormoc: usually, aye

[07:46:59] mchou: achew22: do what?
[07:47:04] achew22: gdb
[07:47:25] achew22: when I did gdb mythfrontend it brought me to the program but didn't do anything. when I did by it said No stack.
[07:48:06] mchou: achew22: you need to recompile myth with debug
[07:48:20] achew22: so use="debug" emerge mythtv?
[07:48:40] neftune: achew22: type run at the gdb prompt
[07:48:57] mchou: i dont use gentoo, dunno how it's done there

[07:53:33] achew22: is there a ebuild for qt3?

[07:55:35] mchou: jake[laptop]: not a problem unless the drivers cant handle interrupt sharing :)
[07:55:53] jake[laptop]: mchou: grabbing at straws here :)
[07:55:54] mchou: achew22: good luck then

[07:56:18] jake[laptop]: i keep getting this: NVP: Video is 3.03165 frames ahead of audio, dropping frame.
[07:56:26] mchou: achew22: yeah, whatever
[07:57:00] mchou: achew22: like the guy in peanuts cartoon is a linux expert
[07:57:09] Cardoe: achew22: uh. that's not from MythFrontend
[07:57:34] Hoxzer: Btw is there any webpage that tells me when was svn 0.19-fixes last updated?
[07:57:42] jake[laptop]: Cardoe: was that for me?
[07:58:16] Cardoe: jake[laptop]: no. that was for achew22, which is why I said his name
[07:58:22] Cardoe: achew22: that's from QT4 which MythTV doesn't use.
[07:58:26] jake[laptop]: just checking
[07:58:28] achew22: whats not from mythfrontend?
[07:58:57] mchou: jake[laptop]: if video is ahead of audio irq sharing betw ata and b2c2 aint the issue :)
[07:59:50] achew22: Cardoe: I'm confused... what?
[08:00:04] jake[laptop]: mchou: understood. have i at least narrowed down where the issue could be?
[08:00:20] Cardoe: achew22: the backtrace you posted is not from MythTV... because MythTV uses QT3... not QT4
[08:00:31] mchou: jake[laptop]: narrowed down? you havent even started
[08:00:44] jake[laptop]: mchou: doh
[08:00:55] Cardoe: achew22: if that's from MythTV... then run emerge --sync... then emerge -auDv world... (since it appears you haven't done so for a while) and then run emerge mythtv
[08:01:15] jake[laptop]: mchou: tnx – i search some more
[08:01:32] achew22: Cardoe: Thats from mythtv
[08:05:29] jake[laptop]: mchou: is there a troubleshooting guide somewhere around. i googled this and not much comes up
[08:06:13] mchou: jake[laptop]: what capture card, sound, and processor are you using?
[08:07:28] jake[laptop]: mchou: i'm using the airpc 5000, amd 64 2200 – asus onboard sound – i can get the model number
[08:08:00] achew22: Cardoe: I don't see QT3 on the emerge list
[08:08:33] mchou: jake[laptop]: amd64 2200? Is that actual or 2200+?
[08:08:59] jake[laptop]: mchou: i'll get the exact specs
[08:11:48] Cardoe: achew22: emerge --sync
[08:11:58] Cardoe: achew22: you're using gcc 3.4.4... the latest stable is 3.4.6

[08:14:56] jake[laptop]: mchou: onboard Asus K8N. I'm trying to locate the chipset
[08:15:14] mchou: jake[laptop]: lspci tells all
[08:16:13] jake[laptop]: mchou: 0000:00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 60)
[08:17:30] mchou: jake[laptop]: well, this aint definitive, but I suspect your crappy via chipset
[08:17:57] mchou: and I'm not talking about thesudio chipset
[08:18:04] mchou: the audio*
[08:18:12] jake[laptop]: mchou:replace the mobo?
[08:18:35] mchou: well, not that drastic yet
[08:19:22] mchou: when you play this stuff in myth, what is peak cpu util?
[08:19:27] Cardoe: achew22: I know for a fact a lot of things have changed.
[08:19:40] Cardoe: achew22: I just told you 3 times in a row significant changes
[08:19:42] jake[laptop]: mchou: HD around 60%, SD around 30%
[08:20:05] mchou: jake[laptop]: is that peak or "average"?
[08:20:46] Cardoe: achew22: emerge -auDv world
[08:20:54] jake[laptop]: mchou: mid 30's and mid 60's peak
[08:21:23] Cardoe: I thought the K8N was nForce4
[08:21:34] Cardoe: wait that's the MSI
[08:21:58] jake[laptop]: i have an external video card (FX5200)
[08:22:12] jake[laptop]: or something 5200 – the nvidia card
[08:22:14] mchou: external video card??
[08:22:21] mchou: external to what?
[08:22:22] jake[laptop]: (not onboard)
[08:22:45] achew22: Cardoe: emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "=x11-libs/qt-3". but it told me specificly to emerge that
[08:23:15] Dagmar: Dude, just erase your hard drive and reinstall

[08:25:10] jake[laptop]: http://pastebin.ca/65062
[08:25:29] achew22: mchou: was that directed at me?
[08:26:12] mchou: achew22: who was Dagmar talking to?
[08:26:27] achew22: I don't know
[08:27:12] mchou: jake[laptop]: what happens when you use mplayer/xine to play back the videos?
[08:27:42] mchou: jake[laptop]: you see more or less the same behavior like frame drops?
[08:27:59] jake[laptop]: i'll try
[08:28:04] mchou: jake[laptop]: or frame drops only happen in myth?
[08:28:33] achew22: is there an ebuild for "=x11-libs/qt-3"?
[08:28:41] jake[laptop]: is the media library using mplayer/xine?
[08:28:52] Dagmar: More and more I hate Gentoo
[08:28:53] jake[laptop]: or call from shell?
[08:28:54] mchou: jake[laptop]: nope
[08:29:42] mchou: just use the shell, make sure verbose is turned on so we know if frams get dropped
[08:29:52] mchou: frames*
[08:30:00] jake[laptop]: ok
[08:30:12] mchou: Dagmar: you mean clueless gentoo lusers
[08:32:19] jake[laptop]: mchou: what should i set the verbose level at?
[08:32:25] jake[laptop]: for xine?
[08:34:05] mchou: I dunno for xine, try 3
[08:34:38] jake[laptop]: mchou: actually – looks good
[08:35:12] jake[laptop]: lemme try an HD
[08:37:33] achew22: mchou: if I get "x11-libs/qt-embedded" (which is version 3.3.4) will that do the dependancies for QT3?
[08:38:04] mchou: achew22: doubtful. But I dont use gentoo
[08:38:18] jake[laptop]: mchou: it would spit out a whole bunch of frame errors if there were an issue, right?
[08:38:34] mchou: qt-embedded is for embedded platforms
[08:39:21] mchou: jake[laptop]: actually dont know what xine does if there are frame errors.....
[08:39:40] mchou: but it would probably tell ya :)
[08:39:52] achew22: I'm so confused — why isn't there a build to deal with qt3?
[08:39:58] jake[laptop]: this is the only error i get in the beginning: 200 frames delivered, 2 frames skipped, 0 frames discarde
[08:40:10] jake[laptop]: nothing else during playback
[08:40:19] mchou: audio is in sync?
[08:40:48] jake[laptop]: trying to find one of the test prgs. the channels are all different
[08:41:47] jake[laptop]: mchou: it looks great
[08:42:09] kRutOn: are you guys up too late
[08:42:15] mchou: achew22: take Dagmar's advice, reinstall and ditch gentoo
[08:42:36] mchou: jake[laptop]: well, then it probably aint a chipset problem :)
[08:42:50] jake[laptop]: mchou: replace the mobo?
[08:42:56] achew22: mchou: what would you sugest I use
[08:42:58] mchou: jake[laptop]: huh??
[08:43:15] mchou: I said it probably wasnt a chipset problem
[08:43:21] jake[laptop]: mchou: oh isn't
[08:43:25] Juski: how can you go wrong doing emerge mythtv? I'm doing that on a fresh install now & it's pulling in all the deps okay
[08:43:32] jake[laptop]: quite a difference
[08:43:59] Juski: (my rationale being, if I can't do it wrong...)
[08:44:17] mchou: achew22: anything but gentoo.
[08:44:18] Dagmar: Juski: You've not spent so much time tearing your filesystem to shreds yet
[08:45:29] jake[laptop]: mchou: yep no jitter, no sync issues
[08:45:39] mchou: jake[laptop]: you know that the myth player has adjustment for sync, eight?
[08:46:07] Juski: I tore it to shreds pretty damn well last night, which is why I'm having to reinstall it. I now have a USB disk box in the bin because the bridge is fscking useless (text files were copied just fine but anything binary ended up with bad checksums.. tested the disk since & it's fine outside the USB case)
[08:46:08] jake[laptop]: mchou: i know of at least 3
[08:46:15] mchou: jake[laptop]: I forget the key, but if you bring up osd menu it should be there
[08:46:23] Juski: m
[08:46:32] jake[laptop]: mchou: but what about the frame drops?
[08:46:42] achew22: mchou: I was thinking about making my own distro ;)
[08:46:45] jake[laptop]: mchou: just adjust the sync settings?
[08:46:55] mchou: jake[laptop]: if you sync audio maybe there wont be frame drops :)
[08:47:18] mchou: achew22: you have illusions of grandeur
[08:48:40] mchou: Juski: what USB/ide bridge is this?
[08:51:22] Hoxzer: achew22: can I have your age, sex and the location plz?

[08:53:34] mchou: disguise*
[08:54:06] Cardoe: mchou: I suggest achew22 stop repeating himself and listen my instructions.
[08:54:16] Cardoe: mchou: a re-install of a different distro won't help him
[08:54:27] Cardoe: if he can't follow the basics of the distro he is currently using
[08:54:44] Hoxzer: :]
[08:54:50] Cardoe: he won't follow the basics for any distro
[08:54:53] Hoxzer: knoppmyth is pretty easy to use
[08:55:06] Dagmar: Better still, knoppmyth has it's own support channel
[08:55:09] Hoxzer: but 0.19-fixes is crashing for me :/
[08:55:11] mchou: Cardoe: a precompiled distro has fewer knobs for achew22 to screw up :)
[08:55:19] Cardoe: mchou: true
[08:55:45] Cardoe: mchou: I've been telling him for 58 minutes to run the following
[08:55:47] Cardoe: emerge --sync
[08:55:52] Cardoe: emerge -auDv world
[08:55:53] Cardoe: emerge mythtv

[12:47:18] Kelerion: don't you need a dish?
[12:47:37] Juski: latest post on digitalspy suggests a guy using windows on a 3.2Ghz p4 gets about 17fps
[12:47:39] Peit|work: I've got mythtv to capture it, but my epia M1000 won't play it back
[12:48:11] Peit|work: my amd64 3000+ will play back the resulting files with coreAVC and a following wind (dunno fps off hand)
[12:49:12] Juski: Peit|work: and you are somehow surprised a 1ghz cpu can't play back h.264 HDTV?
[12:49:31] Kelerion: I heard all these high specs for HD.. but my laptop has a HD screen and it's only a 1.6ghz and will quite happily play any HD content I download and throw at it.. but it is running Windows
[12:49:31] Peit|work: Juski, did i say i was surprised :)
[12:50:03] onetwo: OK, it sounds encouraging then. I've got a 3000+, but I suppose that I can transcode it to mpeg2 if I'm not worried about live.
[12:50:05] Peit|work: Kelerion, try the BBC-HD stream it's nuts, 20mps (iirc) and doing funky interlaced/progressive stuff on random frames
[12:50:30] Juski: the bbc stuff is <>20mbps h.264
[12:50:35] Peit|work: Juski, it won't even open the file, and I don't have another mythfrontend to play it back
[12:50:51] Peit|work: so i just watched the stream in windows
[12:51:14] Kelerion: the stuff I downloaded to try it was wmv9 at 1080i .. and you could tell it was struggling.. but it played it
[12:51:18] Juski: the via board only has mpeg2 decoding assistance anyway
[12:51:43] Juski: my athlon 2800 can play 1080i mpeg2 without too much problem
[12:51:56] Peit|work: juski it didn't even try, it just locked up, I only tried it for fun :)
[12:52:35] Peit|work: the stream looks pretty though, I need to swap monitors around to test it a 1–1 pixel, rather than trying to scale it down

[12:56:06] onetwo: I thought I saw something from Stuarta about that
[12:57:06] Peit|work: I think there are some patches for ffmpeg and MBAFF, and i remember a patch or two for H.264 stuff for myth, but i also remember isaac reporting that he had it working

[13:01:12] Kelerion: but then anything that sky actually broadcast in HD will be on an encrypted channel.. .so I wouldn't be able to get it anyways

[13:31:56] GreyFoxx: Is it just me, or does EIT scanning give up too easily? I've reset my slave and it appears that as soon as the scanner hits a channel it can't tune for some reason it halts and never tries to continue

[13:49:16] Beirdo: I didn't bother to get my license until I was 25, so I'm not one to talk there
[13:49:18] scopeuk: driving lessons are jsut soo bloody expensive
[13:49:23] scopeuk: im 18
[13:49:39] Beirdo: that's because you drive on the wrong side of the road :) (ducks and runs)
[13:49:51] scopeuk: i could say the same

[13:50:14] Beirdo: so you must be on the wrong side
[13:50:23] scopeuk: heh very funney

[13:51:26] stuarta: do you know why England drives on the left?
[13:51:47] Beirdo: because you gotta be different than the US?

[13:52:49] stuarta: cause when everyone use to travel around in horse drawn carriages, the right arm was required to hold onto the sword for chopping off bits of those trying to rob you...
[13:53:07] dev: lol
[13:53:16] Juski: stuarta: a bit like now really :-P
[13:53:25] Beirdo: they coulda just strengthened the left arm instead :)
[13:53:30] Beirdo: but yeah, makes sense
[13:53:32] Juski: only now it's guns, not swords
[13:54:38] Beirdo: Hmmm

[13:57:35] scopeuk: Beirdo thats the one
[13:57:44] Beirdo: you WILL get arrested if you kill someone
[13:57:45] scopeuk: and a 3/4th pedal
[13:57:54] ** stuarta puts in an order for a flame thrower **
[13:57:57] Beirdo: but it's self defense (according to a South African friend)

[14:00:49] stuarta: there a line in a song from a few years ago "only stupid people are breeding" sums it up
[14:00:51] Beirdo: not too humane, but at least it should solve the problem in a generation or so
[14:01:05] Juski: oops I forgot about their 'human rights'
[14:01:13] Beirdo: bah
[14:01:19] Beirdo: send em to Guantanamo

[14:01:50] Juski: they all smoked / popped too much in the 60s & 70s

[14:02:13] stuarta: ie. the crimes where you violate someone else's human rights.
[14:02:22] Beirdo: yeah
[14:02:25] gardengnome: Beirdo: i'm by no means a hippie. and i'm not responsible for your baldness, so don't yell at me. it's just a sign for virility, ok?

[16:26:31] denmaeth: so with the pvr500 i would only need one card right
[16:26:41] zx81: yup
[16:26:44] scopeuk: for two streams yes
[16:27:23] denmaeth: thanks a bunch
[16:27:23] zx81: hough if you have digital cable it might be more worth your while trying to get a cable box with firewire & using that instead... digital-digital all the way
[16:28:43] denmaeth: and it was worth printing the manual than trying to read it online i can make notes and high lite stuff so i dont forget.
[16:28:58] zx81: good plan that man
[16:30:51] denmaeth: what style box would be the best for the front room so it dosnt look like just another computer and i also am concerned about noise

[16:35:34] Merlin83b2: zx81: I do, currently 2 of them until I finish getting the newer one set up.
[16:35:52] Merlin83b2: Also, two tuner cards.
[16:36:13] zx81: must be a snug fit in that box ;-)
[16:36:36] Merlin83b2: It's surprisingly roomy.
[16:36:49] Merlin83b2: I don't have an optical drive in there, but it doesn't look like that would make stuff too tight either.

[17:11:22] speedsix: Hi all
[17:12:04] joem236: hello
[17:14:46] joem236: so anyhow I can start to classify the mythweb ui and work on that if there are no objections...
[17:23:42] kormoc: well, the ajax lib in mythweb is a very simple, and very easy to customly enhance
[17:23:48] kormoc: it's not a framework by any means
[17:25:01] kormoc: As for the OO stuff, you should talk to xris about the way mythweb is moving, as that would really dictate what style OO would really benifit
[17:25:57] speedsix: Does anyone know where to find the setting that tells mythweb what classes as a 'movie' in the data. The latest version finds no movies in the search section
[17:26:02] kormoc: xajax is interesting

[17:34:51] kormoc: mplayer /dev/video0 ?
[17:35:59] LoneShadow: I tried cat /dev/video0 > /tmp/test.mpg. that didnt work. I guess i will try mplayer
[17:37:22] LoneShadow: nope dosnt work, I see driver being accessed in dmesg, anytime someone opens or closes the /dev/video0
[17:37:41] kormoc: well, I would imagine that the driver isn't working right

[17:38:29] joem236: also is the Rewrite Rule known to be broken in svn trunk?
[17:38:39] kormoc: no?
[17:38:42] kormoc: what's broken about it?
[17:39:25] joem236: The requested URL /home/joem/public_html/mythweb-0.20/mythweb.php was not found on this server.
[17:39:46] joem236: if I add the mythweb.php to the end of the url it's fine though I have to do it for every link
[17:41:07] joem236: I was going to change the links to be generated by a get_link() fn which would make changes like this easy though I'm not sure that's the problem...
[17:41:16] kormoc: weird, the file hasn't been touched in 2 months
[17:41:23] kormoc: and the rewrite rules work fine for myself
[17:41:27] joem236: at least not the immediate one :)
[17:41:29] joem236: hmm
[17:41:40] joem236: the only difference is that I'm using a vhost
[17:41:49] kormoc: I use a vhost as well
[17:41:56] joem236: but the URL should not have the entire path in it
[17:41:58] kormoc: you sure you have the override setting in the vhost.conf?
[17:42:27] kormoc: oh
[17:42:28] kormoc: heh
[17:42:37] kormoc: check out lines 124 to 127
[17:42:41] kormoc: that might apply to you
[17:42:45] joem236: ah
[17:43:57] joem236: much better :-D
[17:44:12] speedsix: Does anyone know where to find the setting that tells mythweb what classes as a 'movie' in the data. The latest version finds no movies in the search section?
[17:44:24] joem236: why use the rewrite rule for the page factory?
[17:44:30] joem236: just curious is all...

[21:40:27] Aid1: okay i just wanted to make sure when i added a 3rd hd i had the power cool enough
[21:41:37] ** kormoc blinks **
[21:42:18] kormoc: power... cool... cpu temp...
[21:42:24] ** kormoc ponders how they fit together **
[21:42:54] xris: speedsix: if that doesn't work, we'll have to look for smething else.
[21:43:17] speedsix: Just trying it
[21:44:43] sphery: xris: Any suggestions for the look & feel of a "Previously Recorded" page for MythWeb? (Managing my 4246 shows in the frontend is a pain.)
[21:45:13] sphery: Basically wanting something to remove shows from oldrecorded more easily than through the frontend.
[21:46:51] Aid1: wow sphery, how many gigs of space do u have
[21:47:00] sphery: that's oldrecorded...
[21:47:06] sphery: Lot of deleted shows...
[21:47:12] speedsix: xris that works a charm, excellent thanks!
[21:47:50] sphery: I want an easy way to remove shows so they will re-record even with duplicate matching on.

[21:50:48] speedsix: xris, is there anyway to stream with mythweb?
[21:51:08] xris: speedsix: not with svn.
[21:51:15] xris: mythstreamtv sort of works with .19
[21:51:32] speedsix: right ok np
[21:51:49] xris: the new perl thingie I added in svn will actually send you all of the data (gets around the 2G filesize limit in apache/php) but won't transcode
[21:51:59] xris: waiting for mythexport before I do any real streaming support
[21:52:05] speedsix: xris, second question ;) My searches>movies doesn't work anymore
[21:52:14] xris: errors?

[21:53:17] Aid1: what's the best way to hook up the computer to the tv?
[21:53:18] speedsix: Yeah, not tired it for a while. 0.19 fixes maybe
[21:53:40] sphery: I thought some grabbers didn't provide all the information used for some of those queries, so I wasn't sure.
[21:53:50] sphery: Aid1: depends on the TV.
[21:54:06] sphery: If you can, using DVI/VGA is easiest and gives a great result.
[21:54:32] sphery: If it's standard-def, S-Video is preferred over component, which is preferred over RF-modulated

[21:57:05] Beirdo: heh
[21:57:18] Aid1: my sister's computer has a svideo out
[21:57:20] Zider: tv is antenna cable, svideo is video
[21:57:32] Beirdo: Zider, tv-out means composite or svideo
[21:57:54] kormoc: Zider, technically, you might be right, but in here, tv-out means composite/svideo/component
[21:57:54] Beirdo: any "TV-out" cards you will find for a PC will use one or both
[21:57:55] sphery: TV out means NTSC- or PAL-compatible TV signal.
[21:58:11] Zider: kormoc: ofcourse I'm right :P
[21:58:22] Beirdo: I haven't heard of any PC cards that spit out RF-modulated TV signals
[21:58:28] Aid1: i was hoping something like the plug that i put my monitor into i could have an adapter that hooks up to the tv
[21:58:51] Beirdo: but lots spit out the baseband signals
[21:59:05] kormoc: Zider, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TV-out
[21:59:07] Beirdo: anyways, I gotta go make dinner
[21:59:13] Aid1: watching tv on the computer can get tiresome
[21:59:36] sphery: Aid1: you can get VGA-NTSC or VGA-PAL converters, but the ones at reasonable prices are unreasonably poor quality.
[21:59:40] ** Beirdo is a house-husband for now **
[22:00:02] Aid1: ya i may find one that has a svideo
[22:00:05] Zider: I have seen some tv cards with whatever it's called (opposite of a tv tuner) on them.. they might be a minority but they do exist.. and that's TV out as opposed to VIDEO out imo..
[22:00:23] kormoc: according to wikipedia, that would be a av-out
[22:00:31] kormoc: "It is different from AV-out in that it only offers video and no audio."

[22:15:40] speedsix: xris, in what way? I want to be able to watch tv while my buddies are bugging me about their computers ;)
[22:15:44] xris: jjazz: 250 is older and more expensive
[22:15:45] sphery: speedsix: Could always install Gaim and the Gaim OSD plugin... ( http://gaimosd.sourceforge.net/ )

[22:16:02] speedsix: sphery, I'll have a look cheers
[22:16:05] Aid1: well it works
[22:16:13] Aid1: its not like i play games or anything
[22:16:20] xris: Aid1: except for the lack of tv out
[22:16:27] jjazz: Also: is there any reason to prefer USB over PCI?
[22:16:29] sphery: Aid1: good excuse to buy a GF4MX440 or GF5200...  ;)
[22:16:33] Aid1: yeah i have a card somewhere around here that has one
[22:16:56] xris: jjazz: pci is more supported?

[22:18:58] kormoc: well, might want to get a new keyboard, it's replacing 'ha' with u.
[22:19:14] kormoc: dev, there is no cron entry for that
[22:19:26] kormoc: dev, mythbackend will run it automatically when it's time, no cron entry at all
[22:19:34] dev: really? wow
[22:19:47] dev: i thought i saw some mention of something eeded in cron
[22:19:50] xris: dev: it's configured in the frontend. has been since like .17
[22:19:56] xris: maybe .18
[22:20:06] sphery: dev: Automatically run mythfilldatabase and Run mythfilldatabase at time suggested by the grabber.
[22:20:09] dev: i saw something in .18 about it but ive used cron since .16

[22:22:15] xris: WAR_CH|LD: http://svn.mythtv.org/
[22:22:37] xris: WAR_CH|LD: or if you use packages, most packagers are already incorporatng the changes into the package releases.
[22:22:40] sphery: speedsix: It's in General settings
[22:23:02] speedsix: sphery, confirm exit is checked
[22:23:20] speedsix: myth jumps to the exit confirmation when I try to logout of gnome
[22:23:21] WAR_CH|LD: ah, ok. nice nice
[22:23:30] speedsix: it's very odd
[22:24:06] speedsix: let me try now, brb

[22:26:21] speedsix: sphery, the first logout now exits myth and the second click logouts
[22:26:37] sphery: WAR_CH|LD: it looks like the SuSE RPM's may be 0.19, not 0.19-fixes
[22:26:41] sphery: So, you may have to build.
[22:26:58] sphery: speedsix: second click of what?
[22:27:05] speedsix: logout
[22:27:24] Zider: is there any way to get the svn of mythtv from a specific date?
[22:27:49] xris: Zider: svn help
[22:27:56] sphery: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/
[22:28:17] WAR_CH|LD: yeah, I would just build anyway
[22:28:30] WAR_CH|LD: I dont like distro packages, they make decisions for me. :)
[22:28:53] WAR_CH|LD: I wasn't even aware there where suse packages. lol
[22:28:53] speedsix: ubuntu dapper is still on 0.18??
[22:29:04] sphery: speedsix: it sounds like GNOME is canceling the logout because mythfronend hasn't finished shutting down.
[22:29:09] xris: WAR_CH|LD: well, then svn and .19-fixes branch are your new friends.  :)
[22:29:22] sphery: I don't know GNOME at all, so I don't know if it's possible to change the timeout
[22:29:22] speedsix: sphery, yeah. Is that a bug?
[22:29:35] sphery: All I can say is it's not a bug in Myth...
[22:29:37] sphery: ;)
[22:29:38] WAR_CH|LD: xris: yeah, cools. but if I use that, and it "updates" does that mean I need to compile again? or does it update compiled files, etc.
[22:29:42] sphery: Maybe in GNOME

[22:30:24] kormoc: WAR_CH|LD, so yes, you will need to recompile
[22:30:28] sphery: Zider: I think people just wanted you to do your own fishing...
[22:30:35] sphery: Teach a man to fish... and all
[22:30:35] speedsix: why would ubuntu bring out their new release using myth 0.18? Odd
[22:30:36] WAR_CH|LD: yeah, I gathered from the comment "just the source"
[22:30:39] WAR_CH|LD: thanks guys. ;)
[22:30:45] xris: WAR_CH|LD: svn is like cvs.. you check out the source, compile it, etc.
[22:30:57] xris: I'd recommend installing ccache, too, since it'll make recompiles go a lot faster

[23:41:51] ** kormoc loves harddrives **
[23:42:00] kormoc: there is the standard fdisk
[23:42:33] Aid`: im pissed because i can't get my 80gb hd to mount
[23:42:36] Juski: Kelerion: has to be a bank xfer
[23:42:44] Kelerion: http://www.westernunion.com/info/osMoneyTransfer.asp
[23:42:51] Kelerion: oh
[23:43:02] Kelerion: from your bank directly? you can't use a credit card?
[23:44:07] xris: Aid`: fdisk won't help you mount an existing partition
[23:44:19] Juski: Kelerion: I didn't check if the seller took paypal or not

[23:45:34] kormoc: well, that's just the filesystem, you need to set the partition type to linux
[23:45:47] kormoc: and you'll need to delete the current one and create a new one

[23:46:17] Aid`: format?
[23:46:21] Kelerion: use qtparted
[23:46:21] Aid`: lol oops
[23:46:39] kormoc: mke2fs -j -O dir_index /dev/hdX#
[23:47:05] Aid`: dir_index should be?
[23:47:21] xris: Aid`: it turns on directory index mode
[23:47:45] Kelerion: that like a journal?

[23:47:57] Aid`: okay i thought you might have to specify a directory (dont ask)
[23:47:59] ** Kelerion was guessing **
[23:48:13] timmower: anyone know how to mount an xfs partition so a user can write to it, rather than just root?
[23:48:31] kormoc: Kelerion, it speeds up file lookups in directorys with lots of files (/bin, /usr/bin, etc)
[23:48:33] xris: timmower: mount it and then chmod?
[23:48:35] kormoc: very handy
[23:48:55] kormoc: mount it as a user?
[23:48:55] Kelerion: oh.. neat idea.. specially on /
[23:48:59] timmower: so how do you automount it? just a script to chmod in rc.local or similar
[23:49:11] xris: timmower: /etc/fstab is usually how it's done
[23:49:14] timmower: i mean on system start
[23:49:23] kormoc: fstab
[23:49:27] timmower: xris: yep, but you can't set the uid from there...
[23:49:32] xris: timmower: xfs is a linux filesystem.. it's completely aware of linux permissions
[23:49:32] kormoc: sure you can
[23:49:43] xris: but yes, you can also set the uid in fstab
[23:49:48] xris: you don't have to with xfs, though
[23:50:36] timmower: ok i think i see, so mount it, chown the mountpoint, and forget?
[23:50:43] Kelerion: how come I always feel outta my depth when these two are here?? lol

[23:51:07] Kelerion: I usually learn something new though
[23:51:10] timmower: hmmm think I have had a fundamental misunderstanding of linux for a while... sorry everyone
[23:51:19] sfullenwider: does the Geforce 6800 and the dvr150 work well together?
[23:51:21] xris: Kelerion: I learn new things from kormoc all the time.
[23:51:34] xris: I have to fight to keep him away from the proddev dept because they want to steal him.
[23:51:44] ** Kelerion chuckles **
[23:51:44] Aid`: ok cool
[23:51:48] Aid`: thanks guys :)O
[23:51:53] xris: sfullenwider: sure. 6800 is even quite a bit overkill
[23:51:59] kormoc: heh, well, I learn lots from xris as well, we're just experenced in different areas :)
[23:52:06] xris: kormoc: exactly
[23:52:09] Aid`: thanks for answering non mythtv questions
[23:52:32] Kelerion: file system caching *could* be considered myth related
[23:52:40] Juski: oh fuck. this is gonna add another £10 to the price, easily
[23:52:42] Aid`: of course it could be :P
[23:52:42] sfullenwider: well my ATI card has successfully ticked me off and demands detonation, afterwhich I'll need a new card. 6800 has identical features
[23:52:53] xris: sfullenwider: is this just for mythtv?

[23:53:32] xris: as long as you're not using it for windows and 3d gaming, save $100 and get a 6200
[23:54:05] Kelerion: I've given up on my ATI cards.. am ordering a new dual head nvidia in the next couple of days
[23:54:18] kormoc: the 6200 is great for myth
[23:54:30] Aid`: whats a dangerous temp for a hd?
[23:54:30] Kelerion: I think I've totally about 2 solid weeks trying to get triple-head to work.. and it just isn't happening
[23:54:53] Kelerion: the 6200 is what I have in my myth in the livingroom... great card
[23:54:55] kormoc: Aid`, depends on the drive, you might want to just check the manifacturer's website and see what they say
[23:55:03] Aid`: ok
[23:55:04] kormoc: Kelerion, ooh?
[23:55:12] kormoc: Kelerion, how were you attempting it?

[23:56:05] Kelerion: I have an ATI mobo.. with onboard xpress 200.. and a dualhead x700 pro.. and 3 lcd's... the drivers just refuse to drive all heads.. but I think it's a bios problem
[23:56:16] sfullenwider: which one is the best pvr150?
[23:56:34] kormoc: ahh, interesting
[23:56:42] Kelerion: but it works in windows
[23:56:47] kormoc: sfullenwider, they are about the same
[23:56:54] kormoc: Kelerion, did you enable the int10 module?
[23:56:55] sfullenwider: MCE or no MCE? what is MCE?
[23:57:00] Kelerion: with and without
[23:57:07] Kelerion: tried tons of combos
[23:57:12] kormoc: MCE editions don't come with a remote, but come with a radio tuner
[23:57:23] kormoc: none MCE come with a remote and no radio tuner
[23:57:31] kormoc: MCE is Windows Media Center Edition
[23:57:39] kormoc: Kelerion, intersting, have any logs laying about?
[23:57:39] sfullenwider: ah, so MCE removes something useful and adds something useless.
[23:57:51] kormoc: Well
[23:57:54] xris: sfullenwider: mce version also uses rca style audio connector for input instead of headphone jack
[23:57:56] kormoc: when you buy MCE you get a remote with it
[23:58:01] sfullenwider: and the first letter stands for microsoft. oh how can I contain the shock.
[23:58:15] kormoc: so it's more not giving you two of something and replacing it with something
[23:58:15] xris: kormoc: MCE has no W in it
[23:58:23] xris: "media center edition"
[23:58:29] kormoc: ooh, oop
[23:58:30] kormoc: s
[23:58:31] xris: sfullenwider: mce version is also $30 or so cheaper than the retail version
[23:58:49] xris: and comes in a low profile version (for $20 less than retail)
