[00:11:24] gardengnome: Hoxzer: that was pretty random, fyi
[00:11:52] Fnc: if i were to whipe out my myth database and recreate it, what all information is kept in there? what would i have to re`onfigure?
[00:12:08] GreyFoxx: Everything ?

[00:12:21] gardengnome: except for lirc, for example.
[00:12:34] GreyFoxx: true,I never consider that since I don't useit
[00:12:48] gardengnome: heh

[00:13:00] CCFL_Man: i need to figure out if ati made the stb design or if someone else did

[00:25:41] epoch_ (epoch_!i=epoch@octane.breakbeats.org) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:31:28] GreyFoxx: nomin. You can tell myth to run in a window, and then specify the size you want it to be either at the commandline or in the setup menus
[00:31:39] GreyFoxx: but you can't hit a key to flip back and forth
[00:31:47] GreyFoxx: nor can you dynamically resize the window

[01:39:27] a1fa|64: yeah. ok
[01:40:02] Sedorox: so I would think, especially the backend (encoding side) can do multiple thread/processes to utilize both procs/ores

[04:10:12] Dagmar: sigger: I woudl suggest you be conservative about changes. Some video cards tv output will not go above 800x600, and very few will bother with more than 1024x768
[04:10:28] Dagmar: tjcarter: www.linux-usb.org
[04:10:38] Dagmar: Look it up in the databse
[04:13:20] sigger: Dagmar: ooh didn't realize. TV has VGA inputs, so hope to be able to do hires. TV also has HDMI. oughta get a card hat has HDMI output
[04:13:37] Dagmar: sigger: HDMI would definitely make your life easier
[04:13:45] sigger: ya
[04:14:00] Fnc: you can get a decent hdmi card for ~80 bux
[04:14:05] Dagmar: If you're using the VGA inputs (and I do mean VGA, not s-video) on your LCD TV then just go straight for 1024x768
[04:14:24] tjcarter: Dagmar: I may need an option to ati_remote maybe
[04:14:34] Fnc: dont listen to him.. do a 1:1 pixel map if you can
[04:15:12] Dagmar: Depends on what the native resolution of your display is
[04:15:36] Dagmar: ...since it actually matters on an LCD
[04:15:44] sigger: gotta find a card that has WXGA which is screens native res. 1365 x 768 I believe that is
[04:16:03] Dagmar: Cards now can do weird-ass resolutions
[04:16:19] CCFL_Man: forget hdmi, you want hd-sdi
[04:16:44] Dagmar: tjcarter: If you can find it in http://www.qbik.ch/usb/devices/devices.php it will usually say
[04:16:51] sigger: hd-sdi? haven't even heard of that
[04:17:29] Dagmar: sigger: It's a little like saying "Forget LCD. Buy a 4000W wall projector"
[04:18:03] CCFL_Man: thats a professional standard, only uses one super cheap 75 ohm bnc cable from transmitter to receiver
[04:18:12] CCFL_Man: has no copy protection
[04:18:27] CCFL_Man: better than hdmi in every way
[04:18:36] Dagmar: ...so long as you don't need to watch it.
[04:18:44] tjcarter: Dagmar: the ID isn't listed in the database, but several other similar ones are listed
[04:19:06] Dagmar: tjcarter: Looks like you get to add it then, oh goodie!
[04:19:14] Dagmar: I've put 3–4 things in there
[04:19:17] sigger: yeah I'm eally just concerned with picture quality cabling is the tail that won't get to wag the dog
[04:19:35] sigger: nite guys
[04:19:42] CCFL_Man: Dagmar: it's a better standard, everyonbe knows it, but they won't bring it to consumer interfaces strictly because there is no copy protection
[04:19:49] Dagmar: Oh well.
[04:19:59] Dagmar: Like I said, it's good if you don't actually want to watch anything
[04:20:35] Dagmar: It is not useful in the context of a guy trying to get his LCD TV working.
[04:20:49] CCFL_Man: Dagmar: hdmi carries video and audio, but has copy protection, and cable is sensitive to kinks, etc
[04:20:49] tjcarter: Dagmar: if it is as easy as adding it to the list of supported devices in the kernel, no problem =)
[04:21:11] CCFL_Man: Dagmar: vga should be used, forget hdmi
[04:21:13] Dagmar: CCFL_Man: 'cept hardly anyone has a TV that accepts that as an input.

[04:21:58] Dagmar: How many people have those in their homes?

[04:22:36] CCFL_Man: w3ho has a cisco router in their home? i do

[04:23:50] CCFL_Man: err
[04:23:52] Dagmar: Plenty of "superior" technologies fall by the roadside due to bad marketing
[04:23:52] CCFL_Man: vga
[04:23:57] Dagmar: It still means they're useless.
[04:24:00] CCFL_Man: so true
[04:24:07] CCFL_Man: not useless
[04:24:24] CCFL_Man: professional standards should be brought to the home
[04:24:26] Dagmar: Yes, useless.
[04:24:38] Dagmar: Networked equipment must necessarily be compatible or it isn't of use to anyone
[04:24:53] CCFL_Man: electronics would work so much better if they were made to last like professional products
[04:25:03] Dagmar: A fax machine might have superior technology to anything else from 1970, but it's damn useless there.
[04:25:21] CCFL_Man: my cisco router works with my adsl connection and every node on the network
[04:25:38] Dagmar: so what
[04:26:03] CCFL_Man: it means the router will perform like a beast
[04:26:09] Dagmar: So what
[04:26:27] Dagmar: Does your router plug into OC-48 circuits?
[04:26:37] Dagmar: They're quite superior to ADSL.
[04:26:57] CCFL_Man: no need to reset, reboot, reconnect, or redo anything, just configure and with 1 year of uptime later it's still routing like a champ
[04:27:02] CCFL_Man: it can with a bridge
[04:27:30] Dagmar: Why would you connect a cheap ass pocket router to an expensive bridge capable of carrying that kind of traffic?
[04:27:36] CCFL_Man: adsl is priced right, professional equipment can be obtained on ebay for deals
[04:28:04] Dagmar: Professionals, IMHO, don't use ADSL.
[04:28:08] Dagmar: ...but that's beside the point.
[04:28:35] CCFL_Man: actually, lots of businesses use adsl for non mission critical applications and faster speeds for clients
[04:28:52] Dagmar: There's no point in even mentioning some fancy HD standard that nothing affordable uses, "superior" or not, when it doesn't work with the equipment being configured.
[04:29:04] Dagmar: Hey hey non-mission critical.
[04:29:17] CCFL_Man: the mission critical stuff they use dedicated circuits for
[04:29:55] CCFL_Man: tv manufacturers and stb manufacturers can easily add hd-sdi capability but the mpaa won't have it
[04:30:03] Dagmar: Which still makes it useless.
[04:30:15] tjcarter: Dagmar: apparently it's not quite that simple
[04:30:20] CCFL_Man: useless to the mpaa
[04:30:30] Dagmar: tjcarter: It's never quite that simple to get a new USB device working
[04:30:47] tjcarter: Dagmar: I probably have to investigate its endpoints, etc
[04:30:49] Dagmar: CCFL_Man: Useless to people at home, since nothing no the shelves supports the format
[04:31:10] CCFL_Man: Dagmar: because the mpaa won't have it
[04:31:14] Dagmar: Useless to sigger in particular because his equipment can't use it
[04:31:22] Dagmar: So get the freaking point already
[04:31:51] CCFL_Man: consumer electronics needs open platforms and standards
[04:32:06] CCFL_Man: everything is fucking closed and proprietary
[04:32:18] CCFL_Man: and build by monkeys in china

[04:35:12] CCFL_Man: my whole point is why did you tell him to use hdmi instead of vga?
[04:35:15] Dagmar: I can't be the only one thinking it, but I'm going to be the first to say it.

[04:35:45] CCFL_Man: 150
[04:36:30] Dagmar: Okay, in all honesty I've gotten jumpy about using VGA inputs on a TV when HDMI is available because I"ve seen a couple of cheapass models that took that literally.
[04:36:45] Dagmar: They'll drop anything you feed them through the VGA port to 480 res
[04:36:59] CCFL_Man: i see your point
[04:37:04] Dagmar: ...since VGA cuts off at 640x480.
[04:37:35] CCFL_Man: i wonder why they do that
[04:37:51] Dagmar: Because they were incredibly cheap
[04:38:53] CCFL_Man: they must have cheaped out on the controller then
[04:39:00] Dagmar: Yep
[04:39:27] Dagmar: Although in the case of one of those, I think it was a matter of the company hiring noobs out of college to design it
[04:39:37] Dagmar: There was so much engrish in the manual
[04:39:44] CCFL_Man: lol
[04:39:52] CCFL_Man: typical
[04:42:48] CCFL_Man: anyway, the linksys media center extender, you know anything about it?
[04:43:26] Dagmar: Only that it's out of my price range for toys I don't need
[04:43:45] Dagmar: Logitech has a REALLY REALLY pimp looking media center remote that's nice in the same kind of way
[04:44:02] Dagmar: Looks kind of like a PDA has been screwing a TiVo remote
[04:44:33] CCFL_Man: well, i don't need it either, but i need it for my home ip network dream
[04:44:52] CCFL_Man: i want to try to get linux booting on it and run mythfrontend
[04:46:07] Dagmar: Why bother
[04:46:24] Dagmar: You'll already have the functionality without having to find a way to get it running on next to nothing hardware
[04:47:10] CCFL_Man: because i want a fanless, diskless set top box platform to use a frontends on all my tvs
[04:49:54] CCFL_Man: i have this belief that new systems should have a similar topology and architecture as the old mainframe and terminal systems, like mythbackend and frontend

[08:49:45] galorin: ack!
[08:49:46] Dagmar: Dude, you almost certainly have a hardware problem.
[08:49:55] Dagmar: Either your CPU is overheating, or your RAM is going bad.
[08:50:22] galorin: I had a feeling.. :(
[08:50:28] Dagmar: galorin: Go to http://www.memtest86.com/ and get memtest86
[08:50:54] Dagmar: Put on a floppy or cd (dependin on what you downloaded) and before you go to sleep, boot the machine with it. Let it run *all night*
[08:51:03] galorin: I'll run memtest on reboot... it's in my grub bootlist
[08:51:05] gardengnome: for cpu: check with mbmon or lm-sensors (i prefer mbmon, it's eqasier to set up). maybe you can find some readings in your bios setup, too.
[08:51:13] Dagmar: Depending on how fast the machine is and how much RAM you have, it might well take all night for one pass
[08:51:43] Dagmar: While it's running, pull the side off your machine and eyeball your CPU cooler. If the fan ain't spinning, or the heatsink is all choked up with crap, it's time to replace them
[08:52:16] Dagmar: BIOS setup tends to report fully idle conditions, which can be deceptively low
[08:52:21] galorin: Any idea how hot is too hot for an AMD64 3000 proc?
[08:52:48] Dagmar: Like, if the cooler is completley blocked with crud, it's efficiency will be crap but since the CPU isn't producing much heat it'll be able to keep up
[08:53:05] Dagmar: galorin: 140F is probably way too hot
[08:53:25] Dagmar: I *think* I finished setting up lm_sensors on my 3200+ last night. Lemme check it
[08:53:48] Dagmar: Yep.
[08:54:10] Dagmar: THe highest I've ever seen mine was 112F, and that was when my room was hot and I had the thing up to it's neck in compiling stuff
[08:54:24] Dagmar: Anything up to about 120F should be okay
[08:55:07] galorin: ok, I'm running at 113.9F
[08:55:17] Dagmar: Right now it's not doing much, so it's just doodling along at 99F at the thermistor and 95F on the board just below it
[08:55:27] Dagmar: Run the RAM tester
[08:55:34] galorin: and the compile hasn't died again
[08:55:59] Dagmar: Are you using a 32-bit distro or a 64-bit distro?
[08:56:06] galorin: 64 bit distro
[08:56:19] Dagmar: That *might* be part of it, but the odds are very long on that
[08:56:38] Dagmar: I'm still thinking you should run a RAM test.
[08:57:00] Dagmar: The evil thing about bad ram is that the compiler can't be guaranteed to really recognize something went wrong.
[08:57:05] galorin: I'll keep my fingers crossed that that is it... don't want to have to replace RAM..
[08:57:22] Dagmar: It could very easily be making you binaries with the functional equivalent of tiny, microscopic holes here and there
[08:57:41] Dagmar: galorin: You don't have lifetime warranties on your RAM?
[08:58:29] galorin: I'll double-check that. If I don't I'm going to be ticked.
[08:58:30] Dagmar: Stuff like the occasional dying stick are the reason I pay that extra buck or two (usually not even that much) to go with a company that gives a lifetime warranty
[08:59:15] Dagmar: ...especially considering sometime you'll return a 64Mb stick and they'll call you up to say "Umm... will a 256Mb DIMM work in that?"
[08:59:19] galorin: Anyhow, the make clean run is finished, so I'd better start memtest
[08:59:55] Dagmar: Just let it run all night. The ideal is probably three complete test runs, but eight hours is probably good enough even if it only manages to get through one and a half runs
[09:00:19] Dagmar: Is it hot in your room?
[09:00:44] galorin: No, about 60F
[09:00:49] Dagmar: If you're seeing 113F I figure it's probably 80F
[09:00:51] galorin: North Scotland
[09:01:12] Dagmar: Hmm... Still I guess that's not terribly high. It's close enough to what I'm seeing to be a reasonable figure under heavy load.
[09:01:25] galorin: one sec, let me try something, see if it affects my temp...
[09:01:30] Dagmar: I wish I could get my room to 60F
[09:01:48] Dagmar: I usually have to wait for winter for that kind of thing
[09:01:53] galorin: ambient temp right now.
[09:02:51] galorin: now that I'm not under load, it's reading 98.6 F

[14:53:04] phenex: galorin, heh... happens to me so many times... the down side of quiet fans... i never know when they stop working...
[14:53:29] galorin: my fans are fine, but the stock AMD cooler just isn't cutting it under heavy load.
[14:54:06] galorin: maybe if I clear out some dust...
[14:54:28] phenex: thats odd... i had one, and it held the CPU under 45 even when it was under huge pressure...
[14:54:43] phenex: dust could be a major problem...
[14:55:30] coopster: my AMD cooler had a bad problem with filling up with dust, in my old apartments
[14:58:46] galorin: I took the side off earlier, and the cooler is pretty full of dust... plus with converting this into a HTPC/LTSP box, I'll want it a heck of a lot quieter than it is now.
[15:00:01] coopster: If you're in the market for a case, I got one of those antec arias recently, and I have to say it's extremely well made
[15:00:06] coopster: bit pricey though
[15:00:18] galorin: hmm, mythmusic doesn't want to build.. and I thought I had all the dependancies for it. Guess I'd better see what it's whining about this time.

[15:16:02] coopster: i dream of the day when I can just put a rack under a staircase or something, and be done with all of it
[15:18:31] galorin: A client offered me a couple 1u servers. I think they were SPARC's... Had nowhere to put them, but that business went under shortly after I installed their new web server... so the bank got the SPARC's.
[15:18:52] galorin: and I swear, the webserver ran fine when I left it.
[15:19:05] coopster: what do you do, galorin
[15:19:11] coopster: if you dont mind my asking
[15:19:38] galorin: Right now, career change. I used to do Linux tutoring, training, consultation, that sort.
[15:20:12] coopster: why did you change? i ask because i'd like to go into tech consulting
[15:21:05] galorin: The area that I am in is swamped with people with A+ certifications and paper MCSE's starting up as consultants. There's also no interest in Linux in the SMB sector that I was targeting.
[15:21:25] galorin: We're about 10 years behind the rest of the UK I swear.
[15:22:12] galorin: got the tech, but the interest in using that tech to it's potential just isn't there.
[15:24:09] galorin: coopster, in other places, consultants make great money, but in this area, 2 of my fellow good consultants retired/changed careers because of the same or similar reasons to me.
[15:24:38] galorin: and a third is moving his company down south.
[15:26:06] coopster: well, here's hopin that I can find a place in Tennessee/the US that isn't too crowded
[15:27:33] galorin: If you can, avoid going solo. Managing the business and meeting client demands can be hellish when first starting... plus you'll be in the red for the first 3 years or so.
[15:28:12] coopster: huh, that long? what were some of the big costs that you had?
[15:29:16] galorin: Equipment, tools, marketing(big expense) and non-paying customers.
[15:30:16] galorin: Because I was doing server and desktop conversions, I needed a portable way to show off Linux. For a lot of meetings, a livecd or usbkey weren't enough.
[15:30:50] galorin: I kept both, but I needed a business-only laptop. Couldn't really do anything personal on it.
[15:31:10] galorin: Oh, I also forgot living expenses. that's a killer.
[15:32:40] galorin: If you get yourself office space, not only do you need to cover the lease on that, but also the rent on where you're living as well.
[15:33:14] galorin: I was able to work from home, that's something else to try to do.

[15:36:11] galorin: Cool. I'd start writing one if you have time to. Your business plan will be something that you keep coming back to, and keep editing as time goes on.
[15:36:28] coopster: My roommate and I are doing the web design/hosting thing right now, planning on trying to do web apps, outsourced tech support (if it doesn't overwhelm me), technology adoption and cost cutting, mostly
[15:37:37] galorin: That sounds good. I did consultation work for 2 hosting companies. One of them was incredibly grateful, and paid me more than I asked for, the other one. they were the ones that went under.
[15:38:17] galorin: A week worth of 14 hour days on just their systems and they don't pay... that hurt.
[15:39:25] coopster: yeah, it's goin alright, can't ask for much more than selling a service that you just pay someone else for. long term, i'm hoping to do more business apps, telephone systems, and monthly fees per desktop for tech support
[15:39:26] coopster: ouch
[15:40:31] galorin: I did yearly tech support, price based on either 1 windows box or 5 Linux boxen
[15:41:39] galorin: I hate windows tech support
[15:42:04] galorin: half an hour to do what a shell script can do in Linux.

[16:57:01] GreyFoxx: Last I heard directv has no enabled HDTV firewire ports. So they just record it in analog
[16:57:13] kslater: ouch
[16:57:46] kslater: analog == standard def?
[16:58:06] kormoc: yes
[16:58:20] kslater: ok, that's depressing
[16:59:25] kormoc: which is why xris went with comcast's digital hd cable and uses the firewire port of his hd receiver to capture hd tv rather then sticking with dish
[17:00:30] kslater: seems like the Europeans are in a better position for HD over Sat

[17:16:55] CCFL_Man: which drivers you use?
[17:16:57] GreyFoxx: yup back in May
[17:17:01] CCFL_Man: sweet
[17:17:27] GreyFoxx: the IEGD (Intel Embedded) drivers,. They load a Vbios and I wrote an app to manipulate the vga and encoder registers to get TV working with it
[17:17:48] CCFL_Man: oh, the intel linux ones?
[17:17:54] GreyFoxx: yup
[17:18:18] GreyFoxx: They don;t include the support for the conexant TV encoder which is why I had to write an app to get it to work

[21:55:00] ru: hey guys
[21:55:09] ru: for some reason mythtv doesnt have audio
[21:55:13] ru: it does this everytime i reboot
[21:55:34] ru: usually i just choose watch tv/exit/watch tv until it sorts it out
[21:55:35] sphery: ru: muted?
[21:55:44] ru: and after about 3 times it came right
[21:55:46] ru: this time – nadaa
[21:55:52] ru: hehe no it aint muted
[21:56:07] sphery: So, you're getting the error about Myth being unable to open the audio device?
[21:56:09] ru: if i press volume up/down nothing comes up, which shows me that myth hasnt initialised audi
[21:56:17] ru: well thats the thing
[21:56:27] ru: i dont see anything under the backend
[21:56:31] ru: it would be in the frontend hey?
[21:56:34] ru: lemme check logs
[21:56:59] sphery: If Myth gives you an error (popup dialog), it means there's an issue with the sound config (i.e. you've specified the wrong device or the device doesn't actually exist).
[21:57:21] ru: i checked – its using dsp and that works
[21:57:24] ru: i checked with speaker-test
[21:57:33] ru: and xine/mplayer can play audio fine
[21:57:35] ru: its just myth
[21:57:42] sphery: If you don't get an error from Myth, it's probably elsewhere (like your ALSA init script hasn't finished executing, so it hasn't applied your save sound settings--asound.state)
[21:58:36] ru: oh wait
[21:58:43] ru: i see a whole lot of stuff in logs
[21:58:48] ru: error opening device /dev/dsp1
[21:58:53] ru: speaker-test works with that though
[21:58:56] ru: hmm maybe its permissions?
[21:59:27] ru: what should i chmod it to 666?
[22:00:48] sphery: what is it now?
[22:00:53] sphery: ls -al /dev/dsp1
[22:01:12] ru: crw-rw-rw
[22:01:19] ru: i just chmod'ed it though
[22:01:23] ru: hmm nothing same error
[22:01:29] ru: ok wait it seems i was too premature
[22:01:34] ru: speaker-test isnt working
[22:01:41] ru: if i just run speaker-test it plays sound
[22:01:46] sphery: what's the whole of the ls -l
[22:01:52] sphery: group and owner are important
[22:02:02] ru: but speaker-test -d /dev/dsp1 doesnt work either
[22:02:16] ru: lemme grab it quick
[22:02:46] ru: crw-rw-rw- 1 root audio 14, 19 2006-07–28 23:23 /dev/dsp1
[22:03:07] sphery: Your distro was configured such that users needing access to the audio devices (i.e. the user running mythfrontend) should be members of the group audio.
[22:03:19] ru: aah ok
[22:03:24] sphery: Then, you don't have to make it 666, you could use 660 or 664 or ...
[22:03:25] ru: so how do i check groups?
[22:03:34] Juski: crickets, monkeys, kookaburra... this is gonna make him happy but it'll be a typical SFX mismatch :-P
[22:03:43] kormoc: sphery, how's that work? cause right now, it being 666, how does group or owner matter?
[22:03:58] ru: Juski: Where did I go wrong though?
[22:04:09] Juski: ru: I don't care
[22:04:20] sphery: I was only trying to prevent him from mis-configuring his system
[22:04:26] kormoc: ru, type "groups" to see your groups
[22:04:26] ru: Juski: lol
[22:04:29] ** Juski is on holiday from helping for a while **
[22:04:39] sphery: And thinking that udev will re-create the audio devices with different permissions from the ones he sets right now...
[22:04:46] ru: root is the only group
[22:04:54] sphery: Unless he modifies udev (so that it mis-configures his system)...

[22:06:14] sphery: should tell you what groups ru is a member of...
[22:06:25] ru: i just ran sudo mythfrontend and it made no diff
[22:06:38] ru: does that coincide with your theory?
[22:06:51] ru: ru : ru adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev lpadmin scanner admin
[22:06:58] ru: looks like it a member of audio...
[22:07:01] kormoc: aye
[22:07:06] sphery: ru: we haven't gotten to my theory, yet. I'm just trying to keep you from breaking things farther...
[22:07:09] sphery: :)
[22:07:14] ru: lol kk
[22:07:32] ru: wtf does myths sip client spam the frontend output/log
[22:07:35] sphery: so, if mythfrontend is running as the user ru, it has access to the audio devices...
[22:07:36] ru: its seriously annoyin
[22:07:43] kormoc: ru, when you were testing /dev/dsp1 with mplayer/etc, did you force them to use the second sound card?

[22:09:47] kormoc: ru, to /dev/dsp1?
[22:10:00] ru: using "default" alsa driver
[22:10:01] kormoc: ru, is there any reason you need to use the second sound card?
[22:10:09] kormoc: that would be to the first sound card
[22:10:32] sphery: ru: Try changing Myth to use "ALSA:default" (audio device) and "default" (mixer)--no quotes.
[22:10:59] ru: ok
[22:11:21] ru: why is this happening though? Looks like the /dev/dsp isnt bound to the correct hardware

[22:33:14] sphery: I mean, the one on the wiki...
[22:34:31] sphery: ru: Of course, you can always enjoy watching some TV (with sound) for as long as you want, first.
[22:34:34] sphery: :)
[22:34:57] sphery: If you have ALSA 1.0.9 or above, the behavior your broken .asoundrc was trying to give you is the default behavior, anyway...
[22:37:31] sphery: fish_: as for the guide data web service, we only got it in North America because the company whose site we were using happens to be very supportive of projects like MythTV.
[22:37:36] sphery: (= we were lucky)
[22:37:49] fish_: btw: when running mythfilldatabase i'v got some errors related to wrong languages in database columns: Illegal mix of collations (latin1_swedish_ci,IMPLICIT) and (utf8_general_ci,COERCIBLE) for operation '='
[22:37:50] sphery: They could have taken a lot of other approaches, instead.
[22:38:07] sphery: That will cause problems.
[22:38:13] fish_: sphery: thats cool
[22:38:19] sphery: (in the long term, but not now)
[22:38:45] sphery: What CHARSET did you have set for your database?
[22:39:17] fish_: but i think the tv stations wants the the ppl know there program.. why dont they provide some xml based tv guide which could be easily parsed..
[22:39:30] fish_: sphery: nothing special, the gentoo default i think
[22:40:07] sphery: You're in Germany?
[22:40:23] fish_: but that error occurs only in some cases with "strange names" ;)
[22:40:35] fish_: yes, but i don't have anything localized here
[22:40:49] fish_: SELECT person FROM people WHERE name = 'Rozonda Chilli Thomas';
[22:41:07] fish_: ah, the paste remove those strange characters..
[22:41:36] sphery: yeah, always hard to show problems like that with chat/mail/HTML
[22:43:11] fish_: seams that latin1_swedish_ci is the default mysql collation type
[22:43:24] sphery: fish_: what version of MySQL are you using? 4.1.xx? (where xx =?)
[22:43:48] fish_: 5.0.22
[22:43:53] sphery: OK.
[22:44:11] sphery: Just wondering. There was a bug related to this that was fixed in 4.1.16 and 5.0.17.
[22:44:26] sphery: So, I guess yours isn't a bug.  :) (At least not a MySQL bug...)

[22:45:48] kormoc: fish_, did you compile mysql with the latin1 use flag set?
[22:45:50] fish_: i think its just that mythtv tried to compare a utf8 string with a latin1_swedish_ci string...
[22:46:02] fish_: kormoc: no
[22:46:22] sphery: glad a Gentoo'er stepped in to help...
[22:46:28] Juski: btw folks.. didst thou know .. today was sysadmin day?
[22:47:11] fish_: well, it istn a big problem at all, it only occurs on about 5 inserts per day which was fetched
[22:47:14] kormoc: fish_, you might want to, as then the default codepage wouldn't be UTF-8 and thus wouldn't cause the conflict
[22:47:20] Juski: all hail ye sysadmins :-)
[22:47:58] fish_: Juski: wasn't that yesterday?

[22:50:28] kormoc: fish_, basically, yes, if you're comfortable enough to do so, by all means
[22:51:09] sphery: fish_: You need to fix it. If you have failures during mythfilldatabase, it can affect mfdb's ability to do post-fill processing (depending, of course, on how your XMLTV scripts handle it.)

[23:02:23] fish_: i'm thinking about buying such a think.. i don't want to have my pc running 24/7
[23:02:28] Juski: mine runs just fine on 1ghz
[23:02:53] xris: fish_: depends on what you want to display on it (what kind of video)
[23:02:56] fish_: with pci or usb tv "card"?
[23:03:10] fish_: xris: well, not hdtv, only pal
[23:03:21] Juski: mine is just a frontend, but you can run 2 tuners in one
[23:03:36] xris: fish_: just display, not encoding?
[23:03:56] fish_: and with a pci card, i have atm only a analog card but later i'll buy a dvb-s card maybe
[23:04:04] fish_: xris: both
[23:04:14] Juski: you couldn't use a software encoder & be happy with it IMHO
[23:04:16] xris: fish_: software encoder or hardware?
[23:04:22] xris: Juski: for SO many reasons.  :)
[23:04:57] fish_: xris: well. atm i have a analog tuner card, so i think it needs a software encoder.. its a bt848
[23:05:10] xris: analog can be done with a pvr-150 hardware encoder
[23:05:29] xris: you'll be able to use bt8x8 with an epia, but you won't like the quality you'll be limited to
[23:05:38] fish_: well, lets say, in the worst case it need to do everything on the cpu... ;)
[23:05:38] sphery: fish_: The problems I (and at least one other user) had when I had errors during the running of the grabber resulted in recording shows for which I had no recording rules or not recording shows for which I had rules.
[23:06:11] sphery: It's not that your data will be bad (although it might), it's that there's a failure during the data loading, which can affect how Myth deals with what's supposed to happen /after/ data loading.

[23:08:29] Juski: why, ebay of course
[23:08:48] sphery: fish_: PVR-150 is an analog capture card that outputs MPEG-2 encoded digital data
[23:09:33] sphery: Might do that, Juski. I haven't ever sold anything on ebay (and only purchased one thing--that wasn't what the seller described ;)
[23:09:53] fish_: well, thats nice.. but i think if i buy a new card it should be a dvb-s card
[23:11:37] fish_: even though i have to talk to my girlfriend.. i think she won't a dish on the balcony ;)

[23:14:28] fish_: yes.. i thought something like that.. but even a 800mhz epia is still expensive ;)
[23:14:52] Juski: yeah but they're small & efficient, and can be silent. as in totally silent
[23:14:55] xris: fish_: have to check to make sure that you can actually legally decrypt the satellite signal, too

[23:21:54] xris: fish_: most satellite tv is encrypted. you have to pay a service to receive the signal. very few services will give you a decryption card to plug into a dvb-s pci card so you can decrypt the signal.
[23:21:55] fish_: but i never talked about paytv, there are enough freetv on dvb-s ;)
[23:22:18] Juski: xris: european ones are usually ok about that kind of thing
[23:22:20] xris: fish_: if it's not encrypted, then you're fine. and lucky to live in a country where there's a lot of fta stuff.
[23:22:30] xris: lelo_1966: ask an actual question, please

[23:26:20] fish_: :P
[23:27:40] Juski: fish_: it doesn't matter, cos mythtv doesn't support such stuff, and we don't support the use of it either. far from it.. we smack it down (rightly I think)
[23:28:01] Juski: speak to the VDR guys if you want 1337-ness
[23:28:37] fish_: Juski: do you work for a paytv channel? :>
[23:29:29] Juski: fish_: no, but I don't believe in stealing tv. if everybody did it there'd be no nice paytv to have
[23:30:32] fish_: Juski: only if ppl would "steal" tv _instead_ of buying it. not if would watch paytv who would never buy it
[23:30:42] Juski: and if mythtv condoned cable/satellite theft, its days would more than likely be numbered

[23:34:12] psm321: is anyone aware of an incompatibility between older versions (~1 year ago) of mythtv and the latest ivtv?
[23:34:26] xris: Juski: yes. just late. they started showing Life On Mars last week. good show.
[23:34:47] xris: psm321: not aware, but not unlikely.
[23:34:53] xris: why not upgrade mythtv?
[23:35:16] psm321: i don't want to upgrade everything at once and enf=d up with nothing working
[23:35:26] psm321: right now i can reboot into the older mkernel with older ivtv
[23:35:55] psm321: (with new ivtv, it works fine before starting myth, but after myth tries to do a recording it dies... no errors, but no output from /dev/video0)
[23:36:18] psm321: so i'm guessing some ioctl is messing it up or saomething
[23:37:11] psm321: i could backup my mythtv install and try a newer one but the upgraded database would probably make the old version unhappy if i had to go back
[23:37:15] xris: Juski: oh, nice.. reading episode synopses, it looks like they're broadcasting out of order in the US.
[23:37:52] xris: psm321: yes. you definitely need to back up the db if you fear the upgrade
[23:38:28] psm321: that's what i'm probably going to end up doing... i was just hoping maybe someone knew for sure that there was an incompatibility and the issue didn't lie elsewhere
[23:39:45] Juski: xris: ouch. we get imports shown out of sequence too if it's any consolation

[23:51:48] CyberKnet: CCFL_Man: Which is not a slight against you, by the way... they are greater than my mind too.
[23:52:06] CCFL_Man: CyberKnet: they have, with 3 programs, one can decode directv on a pc legally with their own subscription
[23:52:23] Juski: I seriously doubt that
[23:52:37] CyberKnet: Does DirecTV agree with your "legally" assessment?
[23:52:38] CCFL_Man: i doubted it to until i saw
[23:52:44] CyberKnet: I would almost guarantee they don't
[23:53:02] CCFL_Man: they don't, it's not signal theft by any means, it's fair use
[23:53:15] Juski: even if you own a subscription the use of software to decrypt is a very grey legal area
[23:53:47] CCFL_Man: it's grey, but it's legal, no signal theft, nothing violating dmca
[23:53:53] Juski: you'd think that being able to play DVDs in linux would be fair use, but that's technically illegal in the US

[23:54:39] Juski: mythtv doesn't have enough lawyers to be able to back up that claim
[23:54:47] CyberKnet: CCFL_Man: and as kormoc says, it's a banned topic in here.
[23:54:58] CCFL_Man: kormoc: i'm not talking about signal theft

[23:55:20] CCFL_Man: there is nothing that circumvents encryption, there is no way to
[23:55:26] kormoc: CCFL_Man, the offical channel policy is, any talk of de-encryption is a banned topic here
[23:55:30] Juski: CCFL_Man: you're talking about something which could be construed as illegal, or at least not black or white legal
[23:55:57] CyberKnet: kormoc: de-encryption .. otherwise known as decryption ;)
[23:56:04] CCFL_Man: well, i'll stop then, you guys just haven't done the research
[23:56:09] kormoc: CyberKnet, sure, call it a brain fart :P
[23:56:18] CyberKnet: kormoc: just poking fun :)
[23:56:54] CyberKnet: CCFL_Man: a dissenting viewpoint does not always indicate a lack of research, and to insinuate such is ignorant.
[23:56:56] CCFL_Man: there just isn't any solution for directv other than connecting the receiver to the analog inputs
[23:57:19] Juski: CCFL_Man: so take your complaint to directv, who'll sell you their own PVR
[23:57:57] CCFL_Man: i'm not complaining, i'm wondering if there is any solution to this, like firewire
[23:58:10] Juski: nope
[23:58:13] CyberKnet: CCFL_Man: It's a providers world out there, and you are a consumer. Find enough like-minded consumers and the providers will have to change. Be it because of market forces, or political pressure. Those are your avenues.
[23:58:39] CCFL_Man: CyberKnet: unfortunately
[23:58:42] CyberKnet: CCFL_Man: Firewire is available for HD boxes from some cable providers, but they still encrypt premium channels.
[23:59:00] CCFL_Man: i thought the fcc didn't allow that
[23:59:11] CyberKnet: CCFL_Man: I'm very glad to see you aren't taking any of these things as personal attacks.
[23:59:14] CCFL_Man: the encryption
[23:59:26] CyberKnet: CCFL_Man: I honestly don't know enough about that to say one way or hte other.
[23:59:36] CCFL_Man: CyberKnet: oh, ok
[23:59:55] CyberKnet: CCFL_Man: in that case, I have not done my research :)
