[00:02:19] mchou: heh
[00:02:24] SarahEmm: thanks much mchou!
[00:02:28] SarahEmm: now i need to test it :)
[00:02:30] mchou: lol
[00:02:39] mchou: lot's good it does you now :)
[00:02:48] mchou: I thought you sold it
[00:02:53] SarahEmm: that would be awesome. two tuners in one slot and captions :)
[00:03:02] SarahEmm: mchou: i'm in the process of doing so. the person who said they'd buy it are kinda unsure now
[00:03:07] SarahEmm: because it doesn't come with a remote heh
[00:03:13] SarahEmm: i can likely convince them not to buy it ;)
[00:03:18] mchou: well well, you got lucky
[00:05:39] SarahEmm: heh :)
[00:05:47] SarahEmm: watch, i'll convince him not to and it completely won't work

[00:25:10] Tanthrix: Couldn't find theme /usr/local/share/mythtv/themes/blue
[00:25:51] Tanthrix: And blue is exactly where it says it is not.
[00:26:14] Tanthrix: Actually, it crashes with this:
[00:26:14] Tanthrix: 2006-06–26 17:26:02.557 ThemedMenuPrivate: Must have room for at least 1 row of buttons
[00:26:14] Tanthrix: Couldn't find theme /usr/local/share/mythtv/themes/blue
[00:26:19] Tanthrix: Sorry, I forgot the first line.
[00:26:41] Tanthrix: Gossamer threads turns up a few people with a similar error but in their cases the theme was actually missing.
[00:27:02] Tanthrix: I'm running mythfrontend as root at the moment so permissions shouldn't be an issue.
[00:27:37] SarahEmm: what resolution
[00:28:05] Tanthrix: 1024x768 – though I'm doing it over VNC at the moment.
[00:28:10] Tanthrix: Which has always worked in the past.
[00:28:18] SarahEmm: *nod*
[00:29:34] Tanthrix: It does the same thing in regular X as well, just checked to be sure.
[00:30:00] Tanthrix: (It's 90 degrees where the system is now so I'm in my air conditioned room working on it remotely ;-)
[00:31:18] mchou: Tanthrix: maybe your drives are overheated

[00:41:19] MarshallWalker: Hi, can anyone help with remote problems?
[00:41:47] Tanthrix: I'll give it a go, what's up?
[00:42:44] MarshallWalker: using Wilsonet FC4 HOWTO and now i'm to the part of setting up the remote, and it works when I use irw(?) but not under myth.
[00:43:09] Tanthrix: Well, that's a good sign to start off with.
[00:43:29] Tanthrix: Are you sure you compiled myth with lirc support? Or did you use an RPM?
[00:43:53] MarshallWalker: I used the yum installed version.
[00:44:11] Kelerion: fc4 doesn't have you compile myth
[00:44:20] Kelerion: wilsonet doesn't ..even
[00:44:25] Tanthrix: I guess asking about RPMs shows my distribution affiliation ;)
[00:44:33] MarshallWalker: I think the yum did it all, I didn't do any make or make install, etc..
[00:45:02] Tanthrix: So is irw giving you commands and all that? Pushing left says REMOTE NAME LEFT or whatever?
[00:45:20] MarshallWalker: yup, a happauge model. with the 4 colored buttons.
[00:46:00] kormoc (kormoc!n=kormoc@70.89.128.17) has quit ("Done with work, yay! ( http://www.openbash.org )")
[00:46:03] Tanthrix: And have you setup your ~/.mythtv/lircrc file?
[00:47:14] MarshallWalker: I guess so, the guide had me do some downloading and copying commands.
[00:47:57] Kelerion: that was probably lircd.conf
[00:48:07] Tanthrix: Basically the .mythtv/lircrc file maps your remote buttons to commands that myth understands.
[00:48:27] Tanthrix: If that's not setup right then lirc may be working fine but myth won't do anything.
[00:48:54] MarshallWalker: okay, I think I did that tilde command, lemme check the guide.
[00:49:08] Tanthrix: Could you link me to the guide?
[00:49:34] MarshallWalker: www.wilsonet.com

[00:49:50] Kelerion: http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/fcmyth.php
[00:50:19] Tanthrix: Open up ~/.mythtv/lircrc in your text editor of choice
[00:50:26] MarshallWalker: i'm also using the pvr-x50 part.
[00:51:04] Tanthrix: Make sure you open that file as whatever user you are running myth in.
[00:51:25] MarshallWalker: okay, don't use root?
[00:51:28] Tanthrix: So if you run myth as root, be root when you type "pico ~/.mythtv/lircrc"
[00:52:02] Tanthrix: ~/ just means whatever home directory as the user you currently are.
[00:52:14] MarshallWalker: okay, my file is empty.
[00:52:22] Tanthrix: There's your trouble.
[00:52:28] MarshallWalker: that probably explains why myth doesn't respond. LOL
[00:52:51] Tanthrix: Hehehe.
[00:52:54] Tanthrix: Go here: http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/lircrc-haupgrey.txt
[00:53:12] Tanthrix: Basically, you need to copy and paste all of that into the lircrc file and modify it accordingly to fit your remote.
[00:53:15] MarshallWalker: I don't know if I need that one or the g3 file.
[00:53:21] MarshallWalker: I guess I could try both.
[00:53:34] sphing (sphing!n=sphing@63.83.35.99) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:53:37] Tanthrix: You need to change where it says button = CH+ to whatever channel up is on your remote.
[00:54:12] Tanthrix: And so on.
[00:54:39] Tanthrix: Once you get that setup correctly it should work.
[00:54:58] Tanthrix: Make sure you are editing the right file though. If you run mythtv as root, the file is /root/.mythtv/lircrc
[00:55:11] Tanthrix: If you run as the user fubar, then it is /home/fubar/.mythtv/lircrc

[00:55:26] MarshallWalker: okay, I tried running irw again, and I get conenct: no such file or directory.
[00:55:27] Tanthrix: If you edit the one in /root and then run mythfrontend as fubar then it will not work
[00:56:01] Tanthrix: Is lircd running?
[00:56:06] MarshallWalker: okay, cool. i've edited and saved the lircrc file, but I think the remote irc software isn't running.

[00:57:25] Tanthrix: It's not running then.
[00:57:32] MarshallWalker: how do you tell?
[00:58:05] Tanthrix: It only lists the grep lircd command you just ran instead of just lircd
[00:58:24] Tanthrix: If you type: ps aux by itself you can see all the programs that are currently running
[00:58:30] Tanthrix: Or run the command top. Either works.

[00:59:06] MarshallWalker: oops under root.
[00:59:24] Tanthrix: Lircd can run under root.
[00:59:29] Tanthrix: Doesn't matter how it runs.
[00:59:33] MarshallWalker: okay.
[00:59:50] Tanthrix: As far as I know anyway.
[00:59:55] MarshallWalker: now i'm getting connect: connection refused.
[00:59:56] Tanthrix: Mine personally runs as root.
[01:00:15] MarshallWalker: I think the guide has it setup to start at the startup.
[01:00:29] Tanthrix: Well, do whatever you did to get it working before.
[01:00:56] Tanthrix: I'm not an expert at this – I only got my stuff working through much googling for error messages and such.
[01:01:08] MarshallWalker: i'll try all this, thanks for your help. if it works then my last thing is TV-OUT.
[01:01:23] Tanthrix: No prob.
[01:01:33] Tanthrix: Is your graphics card an nvidia model?
[01:01:45] MarshallWalker: nope, ATI.
[01:01:52] Tanthrix: You're on your own then ;)
[01:01:55] MarshallWalker: LOL
[01:03:51] MarshallWalker: okay, remote's working again. lemme try it in myth.
[01:04:16] zwaaaa (zwaaaa!n=leech@va-65-40-218-85.dyn.sprint-hsd.net) has quit (Remote closed the connection)
[01:04:49] Tanthrix: What you see in irw has to match what's in the lircrc file. You edited that awefully quick, are you sure you got it all done?
[01:04:58] Tanthrix: Took me an hour to fully customize it to my remote.
[01:06:43] MarshallWalker: I used the custom file, and so far it's working. i'll customizwe it later.. wife wants the closer recorded. LOL
[01:07:13] Tanthrix: For instance, when you run irw and push the channel up button on your remote and it says "CHANUP+ RemoteName Here" then in the lircrc file where it says #Channel Up you need to change button=CH+ to button=CHANUP+
[01:07:18] Tanthrix: Good, glad it's working for you.
[01:08:09] MarshallWalker: okay, i'll play around with it, thanks fot all your help, it took me a month just to get the tuner worknig, wokring on it on and off. finally had to set the tuner to 50.
[01:08:28] MarshallWalker: after reading some chat boards.
[01:09:11] Tanthrix: It can be tough to get it all up and running. Took me at least a month to get mine working smoothly, and I still mess with it to this day.
[01:09:41] Tanthrix: And not at all, the only reason I can help is because others helped me previously. Just spread the joy.
[01:09:51] MarshallWalker: oh i'll be playign with it, I need to get a bigger HDD, 20GB doesn't cut it. but it was all I had laying around.

[01:11:04] Tanthrix: Damn. Probably a crappy maxtor though, no?

[01:14:07] MarshallWalker: oooh. well ,i'm making the wife happy, maybe she'll let me get one. hehe.
[01:14:11] Tanthrix: Though knowing Fry's they probably fell off the back of a truck.
[01:14:26] MarshallWalker: they were the old 7200.7 whatever that meant.
[01:14:52] Tanthrix: 7200 rpm – refers to the rotational speed of the drive.
[01:15:22] Tanthrix: It's not old, still the standard for the most part. Anything above 7200 is generally considered high performance / speciality, like the WD Raptor drives.
[01:16:21] MarshallWalker: ah. well i'm still a newb here, does linux have some sort of Ghost program to clone a small drive toa bigger drive?
[01:16:42] Tanthrix: Not to my knowledge. dd will make drive copies but I don't think it can do resizing.
[01:16:53] Tanthrix: Newer versions of norton ghost should do the trick though.
[01:17:10] Tanthrix: I recently cloned my mandrake box...though I don't believe I resized it.
[01:17:31] Tanthrix: Resizing shouldn't be a big issue though – you can just make a new partition in the freespace just for myth to use.
[01:17:59] MarshallWalker: ah, well i'll have to see if I have a copy of Norton here.. but gotta get the HDD and controller. Would it cause trouble if I switched controllers?
[01:18:12] Tanthrix: Possibly.
[01:18:18] MarshallWalker: since I installed on this VIA chipset, and probably would go with a Promise card.
[01:18:46] Tanthrix: I've switched from master to slave and such with no problems but I've never used a card. It might complicate matters.
[01:18:51] MarshallWalker: or tell linux to use the 400GB hdd as the /video folder.
[01:19:19] Tanthrix: That would probably be the best plan. Keep the boot drive where it is and then get the new drive working by itself.
[01:19:55] MarshallWalker: yeah, there's room in this case for three drives.. hmmm.. two 40GB hdds' in RAID. *grunts*
[01:21:17] achew22: is there a file name size limit in linux?
[01:22:03] MarshallWalker: er 400GB in RAID 0 isn't it, for stripe 800GB of space for movies, recordings, MAME, etc.. oh yeah!
[01:22:04] Anduin: achew22: That is a fs specific limit.

[01:23:08] Anduin: achew22: Why not google your actual filesystem and find the real limit.
[01:23:31] achew22: this is a general quesiton because it relates to the db. In the db the files name (for recordings) can only be 127 chars

[04:13:28] LabMonkey: to be exact
[04:14:25] GTswagger: I recorded a show, and was editing it to make sure the commercial cut points were right... and accidentally hit some button... now the recording freezes mythfrontend if you try to play it... and it freezes it instantly.
[04:14:34] GTswagger: Won't even let me get into edit mode.
[04:14:56] GTswagger: The frontend spits out this error over and over: Waited too long for decoder to pause
[04:15:13] GTswagger: Any ideas? I'm guessing if I obliterate the cut list on it I will fix the problem.. but I cannot figure out how to do that
[04:15:31] alsoconfused: GTswagger: try the "play from beginning" option
[04:15:53] Anduin: GTswagger: The cut list is in the DB, recordmarkup, google for the record type.
[04:17:46] GTswagger: alsoconfused-- see no such option ; Anduin — will poke around
[04:18:08] GTswagger: the reason, btw, I think it's the cut list, is that the thumbnail preview movie plays fine
[04:18:48] Anduin: GTswagger: To see the option you can right arrow over the recording, or press the i key.
[04:19:21] Anduin: (but that would only not use the bookmark)

[04:21:09] GTswagger: I think it'll just empty the recordmarkup table
[04:21:09] alsoconfused: GTswagger: the option is only available if you have set a bookmark.
[04:21:19] GTswagger: ohhhh
[04:21:33] alsoconfused: GTswagger: sounds like a good plan
[04:22:34] Anduin: pmaciver: Some driver is misbehaving, which one will depend on what you are doing when you see it.
[04:22:47] Anduin: s/will/may
[04:22:58] LabMonkey: pmaciver: I encountered a spinlock once on my laptop, but I really can't remember what I did about it
[04:24:22] pmaciver: Anduin: Where does myth output all its debug to and how wwould I track down the driver responsible. I know it isn't the DVB driver because I can watch TV on Xine using it
[04:25:41] Anduin: pmaciver: To the console you started it from if you didn't tell it otherwise.
[04:26:10] Speedy2: pmaciver: Can you recompile a vanilla latest kernel?
[04:26:17] Speedy2: LIke a 2.6.17 or 2.6.16–20 ?
[04:26:39] pmaciver: Speedy2: Yeah I can, will that solve the problem?
[04:27:10] Speedy2: pmaciver: It might help. Set the right options for your CPU, etc.
[04:28:01] GTswagger: Anduin — I see a recordedmarkup in the mythconverg database; and I ran "truncate table recordedmarkup" — but this didn't delete the cutlist :-/
[04:28:26] pmaciver: Speedy2: Ok but the kernel that I have at the moment is one that I have compelely configured by hand. So well getting another one make any difference?
[04:29:03] Anduin: GTswagger: deleting everything is a bad idea, apparently it was a bad idea. That should have removed the cutlist though.
[04:29:17] Speedy2: pmaciver: What version?
[04:29:41] GTswagger: mysql> truncate table recordedmarkup;
[04:29:41] GTswagger: Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.07 sec)

[04:31:05] Anduin: GTswagger: Is your mysql partition full? You should check your tables.
[04:31:16] Speedy2: pmaciver: Do you consistently get the spin lock problem?

[04:38:06] Anduin: GTswagger: Sure, just take longer.

[04:42:12] pmaciver: Anduin: Nope never
[04:42:46] Anduin: pmaciver: Does the problem ever happen when you aren't playing back?
[04:43:13] pmaciver: Anduin: You mean using the other parts of myth?
[04:44:54] Anduin: pmaciver: Or sitting there doing whatever, basically the modules I'd check are audio, then any motherboard ones you might have, then another kernel.
[04:45:38] Anduin: pmaciver: If it only happens when you're playing back, I'd lie to myth about my audio device and see if it still fails.
[04:46:23] pmaciver: Anduin: Lie to myth? How do I go about doing that?
[04:46:52] Anduin: pmaciver: tell it the wrong device in the audio setup screen
[04:47:34] Anduin: or otherwise prevent the frontend from accessing it (change of perms maybe)
[04:49:00] pmaciver: Anduin: Ok I'll give that a go now

[05:51:19] Anduin: PaulWay: That would indicate mod_rewrite isn't enabled.
[05:52:31] PaulWay: Well, there's a lot of fun.
[05:52:43] PaulWay: I forgot a trailing quote in the conf.php file.

[09:09:03] liran_: ill attempt to explain
[09:09:06] mchou: liran_: since you havent expressed yourself clearly at all
[09:09:12] liran_: i see
[09:09:19] liran_: ok thats my bad then
[09:09:54] liran_: i was talking before with xris about ir blaster and basically controlling my cable box
[09:09:57] mchou: man, that's incredible
[09:10:29] mchou: liran_: so?
[09:10:35] liran_: i want to keep track of the channels im watching, so i want that mythtv will write into a file or a db the current channel i'm on
[09:11:16] mchou: um, why would you need to do that?
[09:11:51] liran_: i was thinking about a parental control thing but that's aside the point
[09:11:56] liran_: i need it for a project
[09:12:25] mchou: wtf do you need to be so secretive about this project?
[09:12:41] mchou: is your wife watching porn or something? :)
[09:12:42] liran_: in any case, what i was thinking is to look at the code for the 'Watch TV' mode and search for the code where it changes the channel and then just write the channel info to a file
[09:12:52] liran_: lol :)
[09:12:58] liran_: i wish mchou :)
[09:13:14] liran_: well anyway, have you got any ideas?
[09:13:31] mchou: yeah. You dont need to write any code
[09:14:02] mchou: mythtv logs all the channel changes, iirc
[09:14:10] mchou: just grep the log file
[09:14:19] mchou: end of story
[09:14:57] liran_: well thats good news but im seeing a possible flaw in all this
[09:16:20] liran_: how does mythtv knows at which channel i'm on? i mean, it doesnt. because when i press the channel up key on the remote then the ir blaster tells the cable box to switch channel up but there's no bi-directional connection where the cable box tells mythtv back that i'm on channel 4 or 5 now...
[09:17:40] mchou: myth never know the channel you're actually on if you're using ir
[09:17:52] mchou: that's why ir is a BAD IDEA
[09:17:57] liran_: i see
[09:18:04] liran_: so using the ir blaster is a bad idea then
[09:18:14] mchou: use serial, firewire, anything else except ir
[09:18:38] mchou: what STB is this anyways
[09:18:53] liran_: it's for a cable box from an israeli company
[09:19:13] liran_: not sure if it has any serial/firewire connections
[09:19:17] liran_: hold up il check
[09:19:28] mchou: well, go ask them how to change channels on it programmatically

[09:34:39] liran_: mchou: how would a firewire/serial connection do the job of telling mythtv on which channel the cable box is on?
[09:35:32] mchou: cause those thing are generally bidirectional. If not they arent as prone to "mistakes" anyways
[09:36:46] liran_: i understand that but wouldn't that information-exchange be different for all those cable box vendors?
[09:37:01] mchou: liran_: yeah, so?
[09:37:34] mchou: you ever see cable boxes interoperate? :)
[09:37:38] liran_: so it wouldn't just "work out of the box", and there would have to be some major customizing to it
[09:37:42] liran_: nope :)
[09:37:53] liran_: i've never done that so forgive my ignorance
[09:38:02] mchou: no major customization at all
[09:38:29] mchou: look in the mythtv source tree for 6200ch.c
[09:39:47] mchou: that's just one example of many
[09:40:27] liran_: ok hold up
[09:45:06] liran_: yeah its starting to make sense
[09:45:20] liran_: i was reading through d10control-README and there's an option to get the current channel even

[09:55:05] Speedy2: Unmarked bills, bundled, stuffled in a duffle bag in a back alley?

[09:55:11] Merlin83b: Heh.

[10:05:45] Merlin83b: Yes, liran_.
[10:12:16] liran_: ahh good
[10:12:35] liran_: and i can disable the channel up/down entirely? so i just use the numbers to change channels?
[10:12:41] Juski: jees – I've got to do a document telling our assemblers which device goes on which bit of the ide cable :-/
[10:12:53] Juski: liran_: no you can't

[10:13:17] Dagmar: ...if you delete them from the lirc config

[10:13:59] liran_: well
[10:14:02] Juski: just stop using livetv
[10:14:42] liran_: mchou pointed out earlier that mythtv logs all channel changes. so when i press channel up it logs "channel up" or "channel changed to xxx"?
[10:14:42] Dagmar: Juski: Are these assemblers new to having opposable thumbs?
[10:15:07] Juski: Dagmar: I think they are
[10:15:14] Dagmar: Very sad
[10:15:50] Juski: been having problems with them putting the master in the middle of the cable. idiots. they thought it'd be okay cos the cable (to them) is 1:1
[10:16:00] Juski: big mistake. they _thought_
[10:16:11] Dagmar: That's a "skill shortcoming" problem
[10:16:44] Dagmar: They need to be taught that the position actually matters with 80-pin cables
[10:17:01] Juski: it matters even with 40-way cabling
[10:17:05] Dagmar: Nope.
[10:17:13] Juski: oh it does
[10:17:14] Dagmar: Most 40-pin IDE cables aren't wired like that
[10:17:28] Dagmar: Dude, I only spent like 10 years assembling PCs and doing field repair.
[10:17:29] Juski: from a bus termination point of view. it matters
[10:17:49] Dagmar: It only matters on 40-pin IDE cables if a particular connection has been clipped, making it a "cable select" cable.
[10:17:53] Dagmar: Compaq LOVED using them
[10:18:11] Juski: no the ATA spec still says the master goes on the end
[10:18:34] Dagmar: All you ever had to do with the 40-pin cables that weren't clipped was to make sure that one drive was jumpered for master and the other drive was jumpered for slave.
[10:18:50] Dagmar: Then no one ever followed that particular part of the ATA spec.
[10:19:05] Dagmar: I'm talking literally thousands of machines went through my hands.

[10:19:55] Dagmar: The connectors are just basically crimped on with no ceremony
[10:20:08] Dagmar: It
[10:20:30] Dagmar: It's only the 80-pin cables that allow DMA that are wired in a manner that it matters
[10:20:49] Dagmar: Old 40-pin IDE cables don't care which connector you use. That's for certain.

[10:26:18] Speedy2: err, drive.
[10:26:47] Dagmar: I'm not ignoring it.
[10:26:50] Dagmar: I can't figure it out.
[10:26:54] Juski: sure it'll _work_ but it's a matter of performance & signal integrity. simple bus termination theory
[10:27:11] Dagmar: I got my first "professional" job dealing with PC hardware when the DX2–66's were hitting the market
[10:27:25] Juski: the master device terminates the signals.. if the cable ends up terminated at the wrong point, signal losses ensue
[10:27:26] Speedy2: I'm an EE. You can put the master and slave drive in either location.
[10:27:28] Dagmar: I worked as a build tech, repair tech, and on-site repair technician for like seven years
[10:27:51] Dagmar: Never, ever did I see a 40-pin IDE cable that wasn't clipped care in the least which connector you put the drives on.

[10:28:48] Speedy2: BTW, I've designed ATA devices and SCSI terminators...
[10:28:48] hashbang: Speedy2: with ATA66 and up, you mustn't leave a stub dangling after the single device
[10:28:54] Dagmar: Actually, my FIREWALL currently has old 40-pin drives in it.
[10:28:57] Juski: you _have_ to have termination at each end of the bus
[10:29:05] hashbang: Speedy2: i.e. Mobo -------------- Master ----------- Unused is not valid
[10:29:12] Dagmar: I know for sure that the master drive there is in the middle of the bus because I've got the end all rolled up
[10:29:21] Speedy2: hashbang: Yeah, that's not good to do. But if you have two drives, that's a non-issue.

[10:29:42] Dagmar: hashbang: No one's really challenging that that's needed with the 80-pin IDE cables
[10:29:46] Juski: that's different. if you have the slave at the end it might not work reliably – hence the stipulation in the spec
[10:29:58] hashbang: Speedy2: personally, I'd prefer to put the master on the end of the cable and the slave on the middle connector, because that's what the spec says to do.
[10:30:08] Dagmar: Juski: Again, literally thousands of machines were under my screwdriver. It never ever mattered.
[10:30:10] Speedy2: Spec says drives can be in either position.
[10:30:19] hashbang: Speedy2: and you never know when you're going to encounter some hardware that's marginal.
[10:30:21] Speedy2: If you use "CS" mode of jumpering, master is default

[10:30:31] Speedy2: There is no marginality
[10:30:33] ** hashbang never uses CS. :-) **
[10:30:42] Speedy2: It will terminate correctly, master / slave drive in either position.
[10:30:48] Juski: ok – so in your experience it never matterred. fine. In practice it probably doesn't in most cases, but the spec says... ;-)
[10:30:58] hashbang: Speedy2: there's plenty of marginal PC hardware in general
[10:31:04] Dagmar: ...and of course, with CS cables, it's the cable that determines which one is master and which one is slave (and they'd better both be jumpered to CS or you're going to have problems)
[10:31:05] Speedy2: Marginality is not the issue.
[10:31:34] hashbang: e.g. those drives that drag performance of their partner down
[10:32:00] hashbang: shouldn't happen, and I'm not sure there's a single explanation for it, but it's been observed.
[10:32:06] Dagmar: http://www.mikeshardware.com/howtos/howto_connect_ide_hd.html
[10:32:47] Juski: never quite expected to open up such a wasp's nest :-P
[10:32:47] Dagmar: There's a guy who is saying it's master going in the middle for 40-pin, oddly
[10:33:33] Speedy2: nVidia needs to be *SHOT* for removing video overlay support.
[10:33:36] Juski: yeah well he's wrong
[10:34:00] Speedy2: Has anyone else here encountered DVD playback problems with the newer nvidia cards?
[10:34:23] Speedy2: I noticed jerking and thought the DVD-ROM drive was to blame...just learned NV41 does not have video overlay support

[10:35:52] Dagmar: Oh, PCIe 6800's
[10:35:54] Speedy2: Dagmar: I'm using a 6200 TC
[10:36:04] ** kayelem nods at Dagmar – 40-pin; doesn't matter; 80-pin; master at the end, slave in the middle – and (iirc) get the right end connected to the IDE interface as well? **
[10:36:11] Speedy2: But I think NV41 is >= 6x00 + PCI-Express
[10:36:19] Dagmar: Ugh. Tc.
[10:36:31] Speedy2: Yeah, well it shouldn't matter in this case
[10:36:39] kayelem: Dagmar, made 40-pin cables myself too. It's all 1:1 with those.
[10:36:45] Speedy2: But the lack of video overlay is disturbing...DVD playback is jerking
[10:36:46] Dagmar: I am just not about to mess with a TC card.
[10:37:32] Speedy2: Ok, well any 6x card I think except 6800 does not have video overlay
[10:37:42] Speedy2: And I'm kind of screwed because I want a fanless card and PCI-Express
[10:37:45] Dagmar: I'm going to have to remember that
[10:38:02] Dagmar: Gigabyte is making them with Zalman cooelrs
[10:38:07] Speedy2: hrm
[10:38:17] Dagmar: I've got a 6600 from them with a Zalman on it. Heavy b**stard.
[10:38:24] Speedy2: This is messed up. I'd like XvMC but what the hell good use is that without video overlay?
[10:40:02] Juski: well, you can all maintain that it 'doesn't matter' on 40-pin cables, but you're wrong :-P it might even _work_ but that's not the point. the _spec_ says not to put the master in the middle end of story. If you want to look at why, find a wiki entry about bus termination
[10:40:45] Dagmar: You mean like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDE_bus
[10:41:13] Juski: www.t13.org
[10:44:13] Dagmar: The spec can say whatever it likes.
[10:44:24] Dagmar: The hardware manufacturers never made any equipment that cared that I saw.
[10:44:39] Dagmar: No jesus cards that came through my hands ever even *said* anything about a connection preference

[11:11:57] alsoconfused: Speedy2: i have two nvidia cards here, but not exactly sure what's meant by overlay. maybe we can both learn something.
[11:14:52] Speedy2: alsoconfused: Well, I'm not 100% clear on the details, but there is a hardware/software interface for video related stuff called "overlay" that is used primarily for displaying video/DVD/TV type content
[11:15:16] Speedy2: nVidia has replaced support for the older "overlay" system with something like VMR9
[11:15:27] Speedy2: alsoconfused: Which model nVidia cards do you have?
[11:15:49] alsoconfused: hang on
[11:16:33] alsoconfused: GeForce 4 MX440 one AGP, one PCI
[11:17:50] Speedy2: Lucky
[11:17:56] Speedy2: They support everything you need.
[11:18:07] Speedy2: Well, they don't do XvMC
[11:19:08] GreyFoxx: uhhh yeah they do
[11:19:27] alsoconfused: yeah, i thought so, although that has given me problems in the past
[11:19:51] Speedy2: GreyFoxx: They support XvMC but only do motion-compensation, not IDCT
[11:20:07] Speedy2: So I guess my statement was theoretically wrong, thanks for pointing it out.
[11:20:16] GreyFoxx: :)
[11:20:18] alsoconfused: so Speedy2 , is there something you want to know about my system
[11:20:39] Speedy2: alsoconfused: Sorry to say, no. I have a newer card that does NOT have overlay support and I'm wondering how others are dealing with it
[11:20:54] Speedy2: When I played back a DVD, there was a lot of tearing of the video.
[11:20:56] alsoconfused: okay, good luck
[11:21:03] Speedy2: alsoconfused: Thanks for offering to help.

[14:44:50] [Thrawn]: but the standard Unichrome can't do 1080i, right ?
[14:45:02] qu0zl: via the vga port out i'd guess it should
[14:45:07] qu0zl: not via the onboard tv-out
[14:45:11] [Thrawn]: would that mean it'd fall back to normal iDCT like GF4 MX440
[14:45:18] qu0zl: i havent tried though, that's just hearsay for me
[14:45:36] [Thrawn]: I'm not going to use TV-Out.. output to computer monitor
[14:45:41] qu0zl: so give it a go
[14:47:26] [Thrawn]: I'll try OpenChrome first.. sounds like more of a challenge :)

[17:02:32] kormoc: Hoxzer, I would try forcing a reinstall of gcc and see if that helps or not
[17:02:42] kormoc: figure out why your gcc is sigfaulting.
[17:02:55] alsoconfused: it's probably not the compiler either, but a bad set of .h files.

[17:03:30] Hoxzer: is it possible that I make dep out of source of svn -> in ubuntu 6.06 -> install it to box?
[17:03:45] alsoconfused: kormoc: i
[17:04:13] alsoconfused: kormoc: the wrong preprocessor macros can produce stuff the compiler chokes on

[17:05:36] kormoc: and I've had a bad gcc that would crash on QT only, and would run on everything else just fine. Infact, if I recompiled QT enough times, it would work 1 out of 10 shots or so, found out it was a bad libstdc++.so file
[17:05:39] Ben_13 (Ben_13!n=ben@HSE-Toronto-ppp310301.sympatico.ca) has joined #mythtv-users

[17:06:10] kormoc: well, yeah, but that doesn't really mean much
[17:06:31] Anduin: alsoconfused: And the paste from yesterday was all the way over in avcodec
[17:06:35] alsoconfused: that would show up at runtime, not compiletime
[17:06:36] kormoc: different files run different code paths though gcc, so it could just be a single bug in path X
[17:06:37] Coume: afternoon
[17:06:42] kormoc: alsoconfused, why would that be?
[17:07:11] alsoconfused: a bad .so file you're talking about, right?
[17:07:19] Ben_13: Hello all, anyone able to assist with a mythnotify issue? Specifically with cidbcast, using an external modem with fedora core 4.
[17:07:23] kormoc: yes, that gcc was accessing and caused a sigfault
[17:07:45] kormoc: alsoconfused, gcc also deals with lib files and all that...
[17:08:06] alsoconfused: as far as i know that file would not be touched until it came time to link against it, and then again when trying to run the program.
[17:08:14] kormoc: gcc is linked against it
[17:08:21] kormoc: so by running gcc, you are using that file
[17:08:28] kormoc: you forget, gcc is a program itself

[17:09:12] alsoconfused: kormoc: no, i understand that
[17:09:26] Alien_Freak: is there still an issue with mythtv and qt4 a while back I was trying to install it and I know it had issues with qt4 and mysql5 if i'm not mistaken
[17:09:27] Alien_Freak: have those been resolved? anyone know?
[17:09:41] kormoc: so why would program X that used libstdc++ fail and gcc that uses libstdc++ work fine?
[17:09:49] alsoconfused: i don't see any linkage warning or anything, and it looks like gcc had no roblem compileing the first .o file.
[17:09:56] kormoc: qt4 support is a nogo, a huge rewrite is needed for that
[17:10:09] kormoc: mysql 5 is supported as of myth 0.19+
[17:10:10] D-side: thats what i figured.
[17:10:28] kormoc: alsoconfused, it wouldn't. gcc is outputing info about the program it's compilieing. not about itself
[17:10:38] Anduin: Alien_Freak: The mysql 5 stuff is fixed in -fixes
[17:10:51] D-side: hm.
[17:10:52] alsoconfused: what does mysql have to do with the xvmc stuff ?
[17:10:56] kormoc: and again, different codepaths for each different file, can lead to different bugs
[17:11:08] D-side: anyone using -fixes on the backend but vanilla 0.19 on a frontend?
[17:11:15] kormoc: D-side, you can't
[17:11:17] Alien_Freak: okay.. cool. I'll stick with 4.x anyways.. just curious
[17:11:22] D-side: i'd upgrade for giggles but i don't have the option to break my frontend.
[17:11:33] D-side: kormoc: ah, very glad I asked then. thanks.

[17:13:06] kormoc: D-side, sure it does. pxxxx is the svn revision number

[17:13:43] Alien_Freak: so that's a stable version that should work with qt3 and mysql 4 right?
[17:14:01] kormoc: Alien_Freak, yes, the gentoo one will work fine
[17:14:11] Alien_Freak: sorry.. I really want to get this working.. i have 100 gb of space just waiting to record stuff.. just wish there was better stuff worth recording... :-)

[18:50:47] kormoc: that might work, depending on your dataset
[18:52:43] sphery: speedsix: I missed part of the conversation, but if you have your Simpsons in a directory, you can also use the directory as the start of a filename (i.e. WHERE filename LIKE '/mnt/myth/videos/Simpsons/%')

[19:03:19] sphery: (I.e. command won't work with them ;)
[19:04:24] gnychis: seem to be some errors http://rafb.net/paste/results/1ymwJs72.html
[19:05:01] sphery: (Although I'm sure it doesn't need saying,) that's why you can't open the device.  ;)
[19:05:17] sphery: Looks like you're either missing the firmware
[19:05:25] sphery: Or the firmware-loading module
[19:05:41] gnychis: isn't the firmware on device?
[19:05:44] sphery: Or you've put the firmware in a location that's different from the location expected by your hotplug scripts
[19:06:21] sphery: No. PVR-x50's upload firmware when the driver loads so it can easily be changed by Hauppauge developers (and the user never has to worry about it).
[19:06:28] sphery: (on windows... :)
[19:06:30] gnychis: well, let me explain what i've done so far... the only thing i've done is checkout the newest version of ivtv from their subversion since i'm using 2.6.17, then i did a make && make install

[19:12:47] LabMonkey: uhm
[19:13:00] LabMonkey: can mythencode.pl convert mpg?
[19:13:34] kormoc: you should use nuvexport
[19:13:56] Juski: nuvexport is easy & nice
[19:14:07] LabMonkey: well I'm trying to get this all nice and automated
[19:14:22] kormoc: nuvexport supports command line options I think
[19:15:17] Juski: anyway what's so hard about editing a PERL script?
[19:15:28] LabMonkey: so shows get recorded at the highest possible quality, then get renamed to something readable, then get transcoded to 700MB/hr, and after like 12 hours the original (huge) mpeg gets deleted
[19:15:36] LabMonkey: Juski: my perl is rusty
[19:16:13] kormoc: LabMonkey, that's sorta what nuvexport was designed to do, and you can tack on the delete afterwards easy enough.
[19:18:29] Juski: .. all this assumes there's anything worth keeping, but never mind :-P
[19:18:40] D-side: hrm.
[19:18:48] D-side: i wonder if i do want to start transcoding after recording.
[19:18:58] D-side: considering how damn big all my recordings are.
[19:19:51] Hoxzer:
[19:19:57] Juski: I regularly delete over 300GB of recordings
[19:20:06] Hoxzer: Finnish song made by Leevi and the leavings <3 <3 <3
[19:21:14] D-side: Juski: my good lord. 300gb?!
[19:21:36] Lonewolf: I have tried different players (mplayer, vlc, ogle and xine) to play DVDs and it manage to play but very often they all seems to loose sync and the picture disappear for a few seconds. I am running Debian (testing) with nvidia 1.0–8762.
[19:23:28] Juski: D-side: like I said... if there was anything worth keeping...
[19:24:24] D-side: Juski: well my problem is i dont watch it all in a timely fashion
[19:24:28] D-side: i've got things from january on there.
[19:25:13] Juski: I've got things from last year I've still not got round to watching yet
[19:25:31] D-side: indeed.
[19:25:32] Juski: I had more but forgot to disable autoexpire on them
[19:25:39] D-side: but i've got 300G of storage PERIOD.
[19:26:11] d3ity: 300GB, heh
[19:26:23] d3ity: your epenis isn't REALLY long until you break 1TB
[19:26:35] D-side: uh. i'll keep that in mind.
[19:26:42] kormoc: it's sad, but my web server has more space then my mythbox
[19:26:51] d3ity: but 300 in one hard drive is impressive
[19:27:06] d3ity: kormoc, my music collection gets far more disk space than myth does
[19:27:13] d3ity: ever since my software raid went bad.
[19:27:27] d3ity: when I had my software raid I had an 800GB /home

[21:27:30] Zider: or the 2x4 I bash heads with ;)
[21:28:05] Daboone72: 2x4?
[21:28:15] Daboone72: ohh duh
[21:29:03] Zider: ;
[21:29:05] Zider: ;D
[21:29:10] libolt: oh yay now mythbackend is fucked up to where it starts and appears to be running, but it refuses connections
[21:29:21] Daboone72: anyone in the uk I've just a channel scan and seen BBC HD Wimbledon, BBC HD Preview and I'm in Reading
[21:30:05] Juski: Daboone72: good luck decoding that. it's h.264 and will need a dual core cpu, _minimum_
[21:31:01] kormoc: Juski, you have a multi-threaded decoder?!?! :P
[21:31:03] Daboone72: Juski yeah should have guessed. Going HDTV is going to be a real pain in the arse I think
[21:31:09] LoneShadow: how much time does it usually take to compile mythtv source code ?
[21:31:24] Juski: kormoc: there's one for windows so they reckon
[21:31:25] Anduin: LoneShadow: 5
[21:31:39] Juski: 42
[21:31:53] Daboone72: I mean how is 720x576 going to scale to 1366x768(?) ?
[21:31:54] LoneShadow: hmm, do you get any warnings about missing virtual constructors or something ?
[21:32:03] kormoc: LoneShadow, depends on your processor,memory, hard drive, versions of gcc, lib versions, etc
[21:32:11] Anduin: LoneShadow: C++ has no virtual constructors.
[21:33:07] Anduin: LoneShadow: But yes, there are warnings during the build.
[21:33:10] LoneShadow: ../../../../include/qt3/qsqldatabase.h:63: warning: 'class QSqlDriverCreatorBase' has virtual functions but non-virtual destr
[21:33:18] LoneShadow: non virtial destructors
[21:33:29] kormoc: don't worry bout that
[21:33:31] Anduin: LoneShadow: To be expected.
[21:33:41] Juski: LoneShadow: bad coding. you'll have to rewrite it all
[21:33:44] Daboone72: virtual constructors are they the guys working on the Wembly Stadium ;-) for uk peeps
[21:34:17] LoneShadow: g++ failed few times during compilation, I had to restart
[21:34:25] LoneShadow: and the compiling is going on since past 1 hour or so =/
[21:34:40] LoneShadow: this is a celeron 733Mhz, 128MB ram, nfs boot
[21:34:50] kormoc: it's gonna take a long time
[21:34:58] Juski: S100?
[21:35:04] Anduin: LoneShadow: You have yet to wait an unreasonable amount of time
[21:35:05] LoneShadow: though on my backend, p4 2ghz, 512MB, it took around 5mins

[21:35:58] LoneShadow: I should probably nfs boot this msntv from my backend instead of the old p2–450mhz debian machine
[21:36:04] Anduin: LoneShadow: did you actually time it? or is that an "it felt like five minutes" time?
[21:36:24] LoneShadow: on my p4 2.0ghz, it was around 5mins, didnt time it
[21:36:41] Juski: mythtv, X & plugins took 11 hours in my 733Mhz celery system
[21:36:47] Anduin: LoneShadow: How is the msntv working for you?
[21:36:48] LoneShadow: ouch
[21:36:58] LoneShadow: msntv plays video well enough
[21:37:10] LoneShadow: GreyFoxx has been able to use it as front end
[21:37:21] Juski: msntv.. pah ;-)
[21:37:28] LoneShadow: just got my backend up and running, so now trying to fix the front end :D
[21:37:40] kormoc: LoneShadow, 5 minutes?
[21:37:44] ** kormoc raises an eyebrow **
[21:38:04] libolt: gah wtf now is mythbackend not responding to any connection attempts even though the daemon is running
[21:38:10] LoneShadow: is it supposed to take longer on a p4 2.0ghz machine ?
[21:38:22] Anduin: LoneShadow: You did a debug build on that p4?
[21:38:49] LoneShadow: hmm, dont think I enable debug "explicitly" so probably not
[21:38:53] LoneShadow: enabled*
[21:40:13] kormoc: LoneShadow, on my 2.4 ghz p4, it takes 63 minutes, and on my 2.13 ghz celeron, it takes 73 minutes
[21:40:15] LoneShadow: following this tutorial http://hyams.webhop.net/mythtv/myth_ubuntu.html, step 9.8
[21:40:35] LoneShadow: just to compile mythtv-0.19 ???
[21:40:42] kormoc: aye
[21:40:47] LoneShadow: I am definitly sure it didnt take more than 10mins for me
[21:40:58] LoneShadow: I can build it again to verify if you want :D
[21:41:28] kormoc: how are you building it? ccache? distcc? are you making clean?
[21:41:47] LoneShadow: just did make clean
[21:41:52] LoneShadow: going to start the make
[21:42:00] LoneShadow: i prefer -j2, will skip that
[21:42:29] kormoc: oh my pentium-d 820 (2x 2.8 ghz 64 bit procs) it takes 14 minutes to build myth
[21:42:42] kormoc: that's counting ./configure time as well, btw.
[21:42:44] LoneShadow: "time make >& err"
[21:42:47] LoneShadow: now to wait
[21:42:59] LoneShadow: I did make clean ofcourse

[21:44:01] LoneShadow: .configure took less than a min
[21:44:14] LoneShadow: I think :D
[21:44:56] LoneShadow: I should probably run .configure on my front-end and use the p4 2.0ghz chroot and make the rest
[21:46:06] Anduin: LoneShadow: Not building on the same box you use as a frontend is often the best thing you can do to improve build times.
[21:46:41] LoneShadow: I wonder if I just nfs mount it and build from a faster machine, if its even better
[21:47:00] gardengnome: LoneShadow: get distcc
[21:47:02] LoneShadow: I can reboot this athlon64 3000 to linux and nfs mount :D
[21:47:27] LoneShadow: distcc
[21:48:11] LoneShadow: oo nice :D
[21:48:17] LoneShadow: didnt know it existed
[21:48:25] LoneShadow: wonder how simple is it to use that
[21:49:28] LoneShadow: 5mins up, still compiling on my p4 =/

[22:19:41] xris: well, actually, I do.. but not for tv out
[22:19:42] Speedy2: xris: Because of the removal of overlay support?

[22:21:11] Speedy2: kormoc: When you watch DVDs, have you set it up to use XvMC?
[22:21:21] kormoc: yes
[22:21:21] Speedy2: I have a 6200 and just learned there is no overlay support anymore.
[22:21:32] Speedy2: kormoc: What program do you use for DVDs?
[22:21:45] kormoc: myth via the internal player
[22:22:00] kormoc: or mplayer via the xvmc driver
[22:22:05] Speedy2: Got it.
[22:22:09] kormoc: never bothered to setup xine on the mythbox
[22:22:28] Speedy2: kormoc: For xvmc support do you have to mess with the unichrome stuff (even with nvidia) or just compile mplayer with --enable-xvmc, etc ?
[22:22:30] xris: Speedy2: "not for mythtv.. well, actually, I do"... so yes, my workstation runs linux
[22:22:48] kormoc: just compile with --enable-xvmc
