[00:14:41] Paladine: pretty clever trick by knoppix to increase their distro userbase though
[00:15:20] GreyFoxx: I don't believe it was does by the knoppix makers
[00:15:42] GreyFoxx: just some users that used knoppix to build it on. And they don't use knoppix any more but the name is still knopp myth

[00:31:09] GreyFoxx: What do you have for the output device?
[00:31:35] ShockValue: currently /dev/snd/controlC0 (i read this is what i want for i810, but not sure)
[00:31:57] ShockValue: its an onboard sound from i810 motherboard
[00:32:16] GreyFoxx: If you are using alsa you can just use "ALSA:default" for the output device and "default" for themixer
[00:32:25] ShockValue: ah awesome, let me try that

[00:36:24] brianko: so any ideas on the FF? can the images be viewed at high speed in 0.20?
[00:36:36] ShockValue: now if i can just figure out why the mythbackend init script barfs and doesnt run mythbackend, but running "mythbackend" from CLI works fine
[00:37:40] Netslayer: where can i get 20 ubuntu debs?
[00:38:10] GreyFoxx: brianko: Well you can increase playback speed if that's what you mean
[00:38:42] brianko: above 3x, the image just freezes...i seem to remember you could watch the sped-up frames in 0.18
[00:38:51] brianko: FF still works, you just have to guess where to stop!
[00:39:12] GreyFoxx: I don'tbelieve timeadjust will go beyond 2
[00:39:13] Sebulba02: isn't there an option to not make it continuous?
[00:39:27] brianko: Netslayer: The 0.20 source tarball builds and installs perfectly under ubuntu

[00:47:04] Leebier: so i've got my mythbox nearly entirely re-set up. however, when i try to watch live tv, i just get a black screen (output to TV on PVR-350) and the computer freezes up so hard that even a ssh session is frozen
[00:47:32] Leebier: any ideas?
[00:48:48] Aid` (Aid`!n=Aid@sonic.dsnet.us) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:49:00] brianko: Leebier: That was a bitch, getting the -350 to output to TV! I ended up working my way through several module dependencies until I found the right combination
[00:49:21] Leebier: well, i've done it twice before w/out this problem
[00:49:43] Leebier: and everything BUT TV (haven't recorded yet to know if it's just live tv) works fine, X runs on it, and myth's menus do as well
[00:50:15] brianko: so this is an update, not a new install?
[00:50:24] Leebier: started fresh
[00:50:32] Leebier: as i was running .18 on FC3
[00:50:34] Aid`: I got a question... how come my recordings are crappy quality now? I had mythtv setup and they were crystal clear and smooth, but now their clear but not smooth. What I did was i reinstalled debian because i messed up an install and ever since i started 'fresh' it hasn't been the same
[00:50:41] brianko: have you tried video out from the command line?
[00:50:49] Leebier: yeah, though not to the TV
[00:50:57] brianko: http://ivtv.writeme.ch/tiki-index.php?page=TvOutHowto
[00:51:15] Leebier: that was going to be my next step. i outputted to the monitor (with the commandline) before i put things over to the tv

[00:54:04] Leebier: hrmm
[00:54:14] Leebier: it seems to be the capturing that's borking everything, not hte output
[00:54:31] Leebier: because 'cat /dev/video0 > /tmp/test_capture.mpg' is doing the same thing
[00:54:57] Leebier: this was not happening earlier in the setup
[00:55:01] brianko: strange...
[00:55:09] ShockValue: (kinda OT), whats the easiest way to go from DVD -> ISO?
[00:55:58] Leebier: quite
[00:56:03] Leebier: any ideas? anyone else home?

[00:57:07] Zider: :P
[00:57:20] Zider: doesn't decrypt tho :D
[00:57:33] Anduin: Leebier: The list of people continuing to use the 350 for output is ever shrinking.
[00:57:40] Leebier: be that as it may
[00:57:44] Leebier: it worked before
[00:57:51] Leebier: and i don't have another option at the moment
[00:57:56] Leebier: and what ARE people using to output to TV?
[00:58:03] Anduin: Leebier: decoder firmware loaded fine?
[00:58:28] Anduin: Leebier: A cheap (or not so) nVidia card is the most popular.
[00:58:29] Leebier: i captured and replayed video from the command line just a few days ago
[00:59:11] Leebier: ah, i may rebuild the box once i start my new job (want to go to a micro case), and will keep that in mind
[00:59:18] Leebier: wouldn't be too sad to see the 350 go :)
[00:59:51] Anduin: I still have a 350, it captures just as good as my 250
[01:00:04] Leebier: well, for output at least
[01:00:08] Leebier: nonetheless
[01:00:12] Leebier: it's the capture that's screwing it up right now anyway
[01:00:20] brianko: still have remote capabilities with the nVidia cards?
[01:00:46] Anduin: brianko: You can still use the x50 remote with the x50 cards
[01:01:12] brianko: well, i guess when support for the -350 goes away I'll have no choice but to change over!
[01:01:31] Leebier: yeah, my output is working fine
[01:01:37] Leebier: it's the capturing that's freezing the system
[01:01:43] Anduin: brianko: Or just don't use the decoder, the X fb driver support is maintained not in myth

[01:04:15] brianko: Leebier: That was part of my problem when setting up the -350, reboots weren't clearing registers. Forgot about that.

[01:17:32] burnhamd_: i didnt want to keep it in the closet since i use it to do other things
[01:17:46] burnhamd_: i guess ill just build another
[01:17:49] burnhamd_: bummer :)
[01:18:00] Leebier: given that both the capture and my remote have gone wacky at about the same time, might the problem be in my modprobe.conf?

[01:41:41] radi0head: Paladine; :) np.
[01:41:56] Dagmar: Once you've set the files up properly, a video DVD can be burned with pretty much antyhing
[01:41:59] Paladine: what can I use in linux to convert my mpeg2 files to vobs?
[01:42:15] ShockValue: i dont want to burn a dvd. i want to rip the iso of a dvd to a file on the harddrive
[01:42:17] Dagmar: You can try Google.
[01:42:28] Paladine: google won't make vobs ;p
[01:42:32] Dagmar: dd will do that *if the DVD isn't encrypted*
[01:42:41] Dagmar: Paladine: No, but Google will tell you how
[01:42:42] opello: dvdauthor is friendly
[01:43:17] Paladine: is there a dvdauthor plugin for myth?
[01:43:34] Dagmar: dd if=/dev/hdc of=discimage.iso actually is all that one needs if the disc is clean and unencrypted
[01:43:53] Dagmar: If the disc is encrypted, then this channel can't help
[01:43:57] ShockValue: lemme give that a whirl
[01:44:55] radi0head: If you have compliant mpeg2 files (DVD) you can use dvdauthor to create a dvd filesystem like this: mkdir dvd && mv movie.mpg VTS_01_1.VOB && dvdauthor -o dvd/ VTS_01_1.VOB && dvdauthor -o dvd/ -T and then burn it or make a iso like I told you to.
[01:45:12] hd420: how do i define "channel sources" with the svn version of myth?
[01:45:39] ShockValue: radi0head: doesnt that burn a DVD?
[01:45:43] radi0head: no
[01:46:04] radi0head: ShockValue; It creates a dvd filesystem with the .mpg
[01:46:09] Paladine: radi0head, I presume mpeg2 files at 720x526 are dvd compliant?
[01:46:25] fiveiron: i've installed all the plugins... but where are they in the frontend?
[01:46:26] radi0head: Paladine; Depends. But most of the time yes.
[01:47:11] radi0head: Paladine; You could use the tovid suite to check that, it comes with a script called idvid. ie: idvid -fast myfile.mpg
[01:47:37] radi0head: ShockValue; You can also put multiple files if you want.
[01:47:39] Paladine: I will have to check all this out :)
[01:47:58] Dagmar: hd420: The same way you do in the released versions. With mythtv-setup
[01:48:08] radi0head: Paladine; tovid is awesome. You can create animated dvd menus with animated thumbs!
[01:48:28] radi0head: Paladine; With the script called todisc
[01:49:09] radi0head: Paladine; btw, mpeg2 files at 720x526 are usually in PAL format.
[01:49:21] Paladine: no official ubuntu package for tovid, I guess I will have to build it sometime next week :)
[01:49:34] Paladine: yeah I am in the UK so PAL is our format
[01:49:36] radi0head: Paladine; tovid requires a couple of deps, but it's worth it!

[01:51:28] human39: any docs/pod for the perl bindings yet?
[01:52:23] Dagmar: Perl bindings for what?
[01:52:40] fiveiron: do i have to configure the plugins somewhere to have them show up in mythtv?
[01:52:41] radi0head: Paladine; If you want to rip dual layer dvds to 4.7gb dvds, like dvdshrink under windows, you could use qvamps k9copy or xdvdshrink, you can also use dvdshrink under wine, it runs perfectly.
[01:53:21] human39: mythtv.

[02:09:21] Paladine: 1.14 including sales tax
[02:09:28] Paladine: so about 2 bucks
[02:10:18] J-e-f-f-A: Paladine: You'll probably pay more for shipping than the parts, eh?

[02:33:53] Paladine: that a transmitter and receiver? or just transmitter?
[02:35:14] J-e-f-f-A: Paladine: It's just a transmitter 'eye' — there's an IR led, a tiny green LED and a resistor under that shrink-wrap. I filed the end of the IR led to make it close-range only — it has to be within about 3" of the device to work. Perfect for what I need...
[02:36:08] Paladine: whats the LED facing away from the DVB? is that just to tell you it is active?
[02:36:17] J-e-f-f-A: Paladine: Yes.
[02:36:25] Paladine: sweet
[02:36:52] Paladine: whats the range like on the LD271?
[02:36:54] Paladine: about 1M?
[02:38:22] J-e-f-f-A: Paladine: It depends on how bright you drive it — But according to lirc.org, it's approx 1m with a 1k resistor (dependent on the receiving device's sensitivity)

[03:25:51] Cuddles_in_K1: xauth +
[03:26:04] Cuddles_in_K1: that was one of the first things i tried.
[03:26:25] scott_: what user are you trying to run the backend as?
[03:26:30] Cuddles_in_K1: as far as i can tell, the problem is with mythbackend talking to mysql
[03:26:40] Cuddles_in_K1: root, of course.
[03:27:02] Cuddles_in_K1: it won't run any other way.
[03:27:07] scott_: do you get the same problem if you try running it as a regular user?
[03:27:30] Cuddles_in_K1: it won't run as a regular user.
[03:27:43] scott_: what does it say when you try to run it as a regular user?

[03:33:34] claybo: Anduin, ah, I gotcha. Well, either way, is there any reason why all my TV recordings play back flawlessly with XvMC and DVDs fail? xine works with DVDs, but just doesn't look that good.

[03:51:33] Cuddles_in_K1: i didn't start getting this error untill trying to run mythfilldatabase
[03:51:57] Cuddles_in_K1: and since then, it's all gone down the tubes.
[03:52:14] LabMonkey: it's gotta be an ivtv thing I'm thinking

[03:55:00] Cuddles_in_K1: anduin, that's when the trouble started though.
[03:55:56] Cuddles_in_K1: off-topic question... can myth, once it's running, be controlled with just a mouse?
[03:57:28] jams: Cuddles_in_K1- nope
[03:57:42] Anduin: Cuddles_in_K1: 0.20 tries to have better mouse support, it isn't perfect yet.
[03:57:52] claybo: Anduin, tried mythfrontend -v playback. Seems like there's a lot of complaining about avlib holding frames. That's about all I see.
[03:57:57] jams: the main menus will work with the mouse, but non of the plugins or screens past the menus work
[03:58:27] Anduin: claybo: How much CPU is DVD playback taking?
[03:58:35] Cuddles_in_K1: ok.
[03:58:51] claybo: Anduin, when I have it set to XvMC and it's not really working well?
[03:58:57] Cuddles_in_K1: so i need a remote. suggestions on what brand/model to look for?
[03:59:19] ** Cuddles_in_K1 is re-running mythtv-setup, btw, just in case **
[03:59:23] Anduin: claybo: non-XvMC then
[03:59:25] jams: Cuddles_in_K1- the streamzap is a good remote
[03:59:58] jams: Cuddles_in_K1- I have found a true serial port receiver is just a bit more responsive then usb
[04:00:40] ShockValue: i have a harmony remote.. its ok, but the button layout is only so-so
[04:01:00] ShockValue: and its way overkill considering mythtv does everything in my system
[04:01:07] jams: ShockValue- my harmony sits on the shelf
[04:01:43] Cuddles_in_K1: well, i'd be using my directv universal remote, but the receiver is the key.
[04:01:48] jams: your right the button layout is just so so
[04:02:18] ShockValue: i never got my directtv remote to work with my hauppauge reciever.. i think they talk on different wavelengths or something
[04:02:58] jams: Cuddles_in_K1- the streamzap comes with a usb receiver, or for a serial port receiver/transmitter I like to use http://iguanaworks.net/ir/
[04:03:10] claybo: Anduin, with libmpeg2 as my playback method, mythfrontend takes about 10% CPU.
[04:06:02] Anduin: claybo: Yeah, not really in the range where you would be hitting a bottleneck, I don't really know what to say other than that the mailing list would have more eyes.
[04:06:18] Cuddles_in_K1: ok, mythbackend still gives me that error, but...
[04:06:31] claybo: Anduin, yeah, that's where I was going to go next — thanks for your help so far, though!
[04:06:41] Cuddles_in_K1: if i run the /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend start script, it errors out.
[04:07:00] Cuddles_in_K1: but if i just run mythbackend, i get the error, but it keeps running.
[04:07:26] Anduin: Cuddles_in_K1: condensing that it boils down to "if it is still broken it is still broken"

[04:41:09] mchou: Brains: there aint nothing to figure out re 5c. The diag screen tells you if 5c=0 or >0
[04:41:17] Puh: you should try the experimental MythRelationship plugin ;)
[04:41:59] Brains: mchou: Which is lovely... 'Cept the diag screen doesn't appear on the composite out if it is an HD channel. Since the diag screen doesn't come across the firewire connection either...
[04:42:24] Zider: Puh: MythLoveNHate? ;)
[04:42:34] mchou: Brains: the diag screen appears on the box itself
[04:42:46] WAR_CH|LD: where do I put in the also module load options? for when the alsa module is loading on bootup, so it loads auto
[04:44:12] Brains: mchou: Er, not on mine... I can see the d?? options on the LED display on the front, but selecting d11 then blanks it out.
[04:44:46] mchou: Brains: beats me then. works just dandy for me
[04:44:58] Brains: mchou: What do you see on the LED display?
[04:45:18] mchou: Brains: I'm nowhere near dct stb right now
[04:45:32] Brains: mchou: Ah, thought you might remember. No worries.
[04:45:48] mchou: Brains: but iirc it's says 5C 0 or some such
[04:46:58] promacuser: ShockValue: any ideas?
[04:47:14] Brains: mchou: Maybe I'm thinking of a diff diag screen... I'm talking about the one that you get by pushing 'cable', 'power', and 'select'. That the same one you are thinking of?

[04:48:25] Brains: mchou: The most amusing part about not seeing the diag screen for the HD channels is that I can watch the HD channels on this 13" tv via composite out... Just about as far in the opposite direction from HD as you really want to go.
[04:49:05] mchou: Brains: hmm, 5c only governs firewire port
[04:49:43] mchou: Brains: so I dont see what's so amusing. It's supposed to work thru the composite/svideo port

[05:06:27] metalac: also do you have separate tv listings for dct6200? from regular analog?

[05:11:42] metalac: Brains: i've talked to bunch of people and it seems that my chipset is to blame

[05:15:05] metalac: all i want to do is connect DCT-6200 and watch HDTV

[05:15:15] Brains: metalac: And you've made sure that you aren't tuning to any channels with 5C?

[05:15:41] defaultro: do you know how to get to service menu?
[05:15:42] metalac: what is 5C?
[05:15:48] defaultro: encryption
[05:16:05] defaultro: do this
[05:16:17] defaultro: go to the HD channel you want to record in the set top box
[05:16:22] defaultro: hit power off
[05:16:28] defaultro: then hit select
[05:16:44] defaultro: distance should be less than a second
[05:17:08] defaultro: then go to channel status iirc
[05:17:24] metalac: i got general status
[05:17:43] defaultro: there are many choices
[05:17:51] metalac: got it
[05:17:52] defaultro: i think it's the 4th or 5th
[05:17:55] Brains: d11 is the one that shows the 5C option.
[05:18:01] defaultro: 0 or 1?
[05:18:17] metalac: there is nothing that says 5C
[05:18:21] Brains: (Any 5C other than 0 means you can't watch it.)
[05:18:31] defaultro: metalac, go to D11 menu
[05:18:49] metalac: says 0
[05:18:53] defaultro: good
[05:19:09] defaultro: then all you have to do is find out why it's intermittent

[05:19:24] metalac: seems that it's my firewire card
[05:19:27] defaultro: broadvast
[05:19:32] Brains: It is a changeable thing... Generally set by channel, but sometimes it can be turned on for just a show. (Or so I'm understanding so far...)

[05:22:39] metalac: so does that mean if 5C is on we can't watch it?
[05:23:01] defaultro: you can watch it using your stb
[05:23:02] mchou: 5c is programming depedent
[05:23:07] defaultro: but you cannot record it
[05:23:15] Brains: If 5C is on (a value of anything other than 0), you can't watch it via firewire.
[05:23:29] defaultro: the provider's box can record it because it's proprietary system
[05:23:50] mchou: Brains: more appropriate to say the fw port is closed if 5C>0
[05:23:51] defaultro: you can record local HD though
[05:24:33] mchou: Brains: or downrezed
[05:24:57] defaultro: i have a friend who works for motorola, he said he can hack the 6200 to make firewire working. Maybe, he was just joking
[05:25:13] mchou: Brains: meaning you can watch downrezed material
[05:25:47] mishehu: defaultro: I'm pretty sure it's a firmware setting.
[05:25:51] Brains: mchou: I've pretty much seen nothing when 5C>0.
[05:26:05] mishehu: yeah, I can't get *anything* when 5C>0
[05:26:14] mchou: Brains: that's cause there was no downrez material avail
[05:26:14] mishehu: not even downrezzed.
[05:26:31] mishehu: because comcast feels that I might record it and keep it forever.

[05:28:36] defaultro: the law prohibits recording of this shows

[05:28:59] mchou: defaultro: which law in particular?
[05:29:02] Brains: The law doesn't prohibit recording the shows last I looked.
[05:29:04] defaultro: 5c
[05:29:10] mchou: lol
[05:29:38] defaultro: i can just hook up a vhs to it and record it
[05:29:40] nandy_: any idea what would cause /dev/lirc0 not to get created?
[05:29:46] mchou: 5c doesnt make prohibitions against recording shows
[05:29:52] defaultro: oh
[05:29:57] nandy_: i have modprobe.conf setup according to the howtos etc
[05:30:03] mchou: it just make prohibitions re firewire
[05:30:06] defaultro: nandy, wrong channel
[05:30:10] Brains: Well, "copy never" counts as a prohibition against recording a show.
[05:30:14] defaultro: nandy, just kidding
[05:30:24] mchou: a subtle but not insignificant difference
[05:30:45] defaultro: so if 5c as you said, doesn make prohibitions of recording, why can't we record it ourseleves
[05:30:57] mchou: Brains: that's copy never over firewire.
[05:31:04] nandy_: defaultro: oh in that case do you have any ideas
[05:31:25] mchou: Brains: not copy never over svideo or whatnot
[05:31:37] defaultro: that means, even if the quality is bad if copied via RCA out, I can connect the out to a PVR card and duplicate it/shareit
[05:31:40] Brains: mchou: Only because 5C is aimed at high quality representations.
[05:32:02] defaultro: the quality isn't really bad in RCA output
[05:32:15] defaultro: we just just duplicate the mpeg files and bittorrent it
[05:32:16] ** Brains wishes that you could find out the 5C status of a channel so you could select firewire or s-video output depending... **
[05:32:34] defaultro: i think that's what they want to stop right
[05:32:38] Brains: defaultro: Most BT folks would downrez and compress it anyways.
[05:32:39] defaultro: prohibit copying
[05:32:48] defaultro: i don't care if it's downres
[05:33:01] defaultro: all i care is that, I can still share it to anywhere in the world
[05:33:10] Brains: If you don't mind a downrez, then a good s-video (not covered by 5C) is fine.
[05:33:12] defaultro: aren't they worried about that
[05:33:40] hjohnson: defaultro: sure, but there's nothing they can do about it.
[05:33:41] metalac: so what's a good way to watch HDTV
[05:33:48] metalac: seems that I can do only over the air stuff
[05:33:48] defaultro: assuming Discovery HD sent to SVIDEO and capture by PVR150 as mpg file, I can just put the file to a bittorrent
[05:33:53] hjohnson: metalac: there isn't one, thakns to the lawywers and their farking DRM

[05:35:41] mchou: hjohnson: well, I'd argue the US copyright system is broken. Lifetime + 70 yrs might as well be forever.
[05:35:43] hjohnson: mm.. Gin.. Tonic...
[05:35:49] Brains: hjohnson: I think he was talking about the failure of their attempt... It didn't cover that case.
[05:36:03] hjohnson: mchou: right, but realistically, stuff made this year would be covered by copyright no matter what.
[05:36:18] mchou: hjohnson: no argument there
[05:36:28] Brains: hjohnson: But timeshifting is already allowed under current law.
[05:36:36] defaultro: so the story of episode 3 of the series 24 on a HD show wouldn't be different a different story of episode 3 of series 24 if it's 4:3, LOL
[05:36:52] hjohnson: Brains: right, but what I read of defaultro is he wants to toss stuff on 'torrent
[05:37:14] defaultro: so now, what can the LAW do about it
[05:37:28] defaultro: especially, other countries doesn't have HD yet. FREAKING LAW. LOL
[05:37:45] mchou: defaultro: law allows MPAA to go after you and your wife, kids and house :)
[05:37:54] defaultro: LOL
[05:37:59] Brains: hjohnson: I think I already addressed that. He was talking about the bittorrent case being what the 5C stuff was supposed to prevent yet didn't while still being a pain in our sides. I don't think he was talking about wanting to specifically do that.
[05:38:05] defaultro: how can they be sure that I did put it on a torrent?
[05:38:12] defaultro: they won't be able to track me
[05:38:16] defaultro: if i really do it
[05:38:19] mchou: defaultro: simple

[05:38:51] defaultro: it's easy to find an ftp site
[05:39:02] hjohnson: davidsmind: sure it's easy
[05:39:16] defaultro: then use proxy of chains, 100 proxy deep
[05:39:19] defaultro: it's slow though

[05:51:53] SlicerDicer-: haha
[05:51:56] SlicerDicer-: but the backend is hosed
[05:51:59] jakeisawake: hmm, what kern, lirc version, remote are you using?
[05:52:03] SlicerDicer-: I mean it records

[05:52:32] jakeisawake: nandy_, sure
[05:52:35] defaultro: i'm thinking of building a new computer. But I want a mother board with built in LAN and video which can play HD smoothly
[05:52:43] defaultro: do you guys have mother board recommendation?
[05:53:14] defaultro: then I'll just find a case which is 1u or 2u
[05:53:26] Dagmar: That will limit your options

[05:54:04] hjohnson: I'm just deciding whether I want SDTV of HDTV
[05:54:14] hd420: it's saying i need to run mythfilldatabase first, but when I run that, it says that i don't have channels defined
[05:54:16] defaultro: ok
[05:54:35] defaultro: Dagmar, it's just going to be a frontend
[05:54:39] Dagmar: hd420: you're not following the installation guide
[05:54:53] defaultro: I'm even thinking of booting off a eeprom
[05:54:57] defaultro: via bootp
[05:55:00] Dagmar: defaultro: The typical CPU's HSF is taller than you can stick in a 1U box
[05:55:03] defaultro: so it's ggoing to be diskless
[05:55:21] defaultro: what's your recommednation on the case?
[05:55:41] Dagmar: To just buy a mid-tower

[05:56:12] hjohnson: yep

[05:56:25] defaultro: i can stretch my budget to 200–250
[05:56:39] Dagmar: THat would get you a case.
[05:56:47] hjohnson: i'd be tempted to gut a dvd player for use as a case. :P
[05:56:57] defaultro: yeah, cool idea
[05:57:01] defaultro: but what about the cpu?
[05:57:09] defaultro: where are you going to stick it
[05:57:10] defaultro: ?
[05:57:20] defaultro: or maybe, create a hole on top, LOL
[05:57:22] hjohnson: defaultro: if I was just doing SDTV, a EPIA mini-itx would be more than enough

[06:29:23] Anduin: evil_andy: transcoding to rtjpeg is probably not what you want, how does mpeg4 suck?
[06:29:50] evil_andy: well I think I figured it out. but first another question if you don't mind
[06:30:08] evil_andy: is 480x480 a good resolution? or should I aim for 640x480?

[06:30:23] evil_andy: I'm going to mainly want to play this stuff back after recording to DVD
[06:30:58] evil_andy: (I had it set to think it was recording at 640x480 when in actuality it was recording at 480x480 so it got kind of skewed)
[06:31:56] Anduin: evil_andy: If you are going to just push them off to DVDs why do anything, record max resolution, reasonable bit rate
[06:33:11] evil_andy: I think I lied (sorry, I'm sick, and I've been up for a loooooong time, not thinking straight) I want to record to DVD, but friends want to stream off the network, so I have it set to NOT delete the original after transcode, but, I want the transcoded file to be of decent quality, I think I figured out he settings I need.
[06:33:19] evil_andy: so what exactly IS rtJpeg?
[06:34:41] evil_andy: what I'm aiming for is around 400MB/30min show, so if need be, I can quickly dump it to VCD
[06:34:47] Anduin: evil_andy: a space waster with modern hardware
[06:35:14] Anduin: evil_andy: If space is your concern go mpeg4, rtjpeg is huge
[06:35:42] evil_andy: is mpeg4 a good medium for that? is there any way to have it run ffmpeg instead of mythtranscode? (if so, where should I look for details on that)
[06:36:01] Anduin: evil_andy: There are things like nuvexport
[06:36:27] evil_andy: and can I script them to automagically run after recording? or do I have to script them by hand?
[06:36:41] Anduin: evil_andy: but really just picking a good mpeg4 profile and settings should get you what you want
[06:36:48] evil_andy: cool
[06:36:50] evil_andy: thanks!
[06:37:17] evil_andy: I'll mess around with tthe settings and see what I come up with :) I've been just manually recording 5 minute segments, then transcoding to see what comes out

[09:15:51] Cougar: what function is used in C+ to make string a lowercase? I'd like to change cat from this line: "cat = info.attribute("category");" to lowercase
[09:17:01] Cougar: something like: cat = info.attribute("category").lower; ?
[09:18:02] Dibblah: It's not so much a C++ question as a qt qstring question?
[09:18:34] Dibblah: http://doc.trolltech.com/3.3/qstring.html#lower
[09:19:34] Cougar: thx
[09:20:31] Dibblah: Assuming this is Myth code, of course ;)
[09:20:42] Cougar: now I should find out where tv listing is parsed and do the same. It looks better to convert all to lower instead of inserting many lines with different case to categories.xml
[09:23:02] Ruleke: what is the source of that data ?
[09:25:06] Cougar: even current categories.xml has duplicates like "Scifi", "SciFi", "Show", "SHOW", "Game show", "Game Show"
[09:25:32] Cougar: my grabber gives all category names in uppercase
[09:25:53] Dibblah: Ummm... You do know it doesn't make a difference, right?
[09:26:08] Dibblah: Since Mysql is case insensitive...
[09:26:16] Cougar: would be easy to just keep first character and lowercase all remaining caharacters but even then some of them doesn't mach with current names
[09:26:38] Cougar: yes, looks it makes because I don't see category colors any more
[09:26:52] Dibblah: Okay...
[09:27:04] Merlin83b: Dibblah: I figure you know this, but only when using LIKE. If you use = then MySQL is case sensitive.
[09:28:26] Cougar: it is not mysql query at all. for me it seems that myth loads categories.xml and creates catColors hash and just uses this when showing listing

[10:13:02] Dagmar: What permissions are you setting on the file?
[10:13:22] Dagmar: I don't thnk Myth keeps the file open all the time, so you can't change the file to something that the daemon can't write to. It'll fail on the next write.
[10:13:38] Dagmar: Only when somehting keeps the FH open can you do that, and it's kind of undefined whether or not that's kosher for the OS to allow
[10:14:01] Dagmar: ....or at least, I've never seen it defined and it would add some overhead if the OS had to check for permissions on each and every write().

[10:20:29] Dagmar: The reason Dibblah and I have been questioning that is because you've yet to say what these "certain permissions" are
[10:20:46] Ruleke: ah sorry
[10:21:03] Dagmar: If those "certain permissions" are something like 0700 owned by root and the backend is running as user mythtv or something, it ain't loggin' anything.
[10:21:11] Ruleke: of course
[10:21:23] Dagmar: So long as it can be ruled out because you're aware of that problems.

[10:21:47] Dibblah: stuarta: Is the diseqc switch patch needing more testing? Don't think it affects me, but can test if it helps...
[10:21:56] Ruleke: should the log make a note about the signal ?
[10:22:02] stuarta: Dibblah: which ticket is that?
[10:22:05] Dagmar: Something yuo might want to consider doing (or at least give it serious thought) is to set a umask at the top of the script that starts the backend
[10:22:12] Ruleke: yer
[10:22:15] Dagmar: ...like umask 0067
[10:22:28] Ruleke: though std logrotate syntax provides it
[10:22:46] Ruleke: you set the permissions it should create the file with, I suppose it does that
[10:22:53] Ruleke: otherwise samba etc would have the same issue
[10:23:20] Dibblah: http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/attachment/ticket/ . . . switch.patch
[10:23:25] stuarta: hehe. one of mine... :)
[10:23:42] Dibblah: That'd be why I asked :)
[10:23:53] stuarta: I just haven't had a chance to sit down and go through the 0.21 tickets.
[10:24:00] Dibblah: Sure.
[10:24:20] Dibblah: I'm also looking at why mythfilldatabase is hungry and getting surprised.
[10:24:26] Ruleke: Dibblah: I suppose I'll stick with copytruncate for now, will debug a bit later and see what's up
[10:24:35] stuarta: from my initial review it looks okay, so it'll go in this week.
[10:24:39] Ruleke: err dagmar
[10:24:53] Ruleke: well both :P
[10:25:08] stuarta: I want to try and sort out #2372 first if possible.

[10:26:14] Dibblah: The way ChanInfo is created / used is _expensive_. Creating / destroying almost 30 objects on every instanciation is nasty.
[10:27:31] Dibblah: Annoyingly, it doesn't show up nicely in oprofile, since most of the 'cost' is in libc, from what I can tell. But then, I'm not a real programmer :(
[10:28:35] stuarta: did some profiling while recording friday night, and there is an awful lot of QString::~QString() going on. About 60%
[10:28:49] Merlin83b: Aha, stuarta arrives!
[10:28:55] stuarta: for the frontend as well for some crazy reason...
[10:29:02] stuarta: Merlin83b: morning :)
[10:29:07] Merlin83b: Hiya
[10:29:21] Merlin83b: So I have new problems which I hoped to extra memory would sort.
[10:29:27] Merlin83b: No more swap usage so we can rule that one out!
[10:29:33] stuarta: i'd need to try profiling with eit disabled to find out if that's where the QStrings are getting hammered.

[10:29:59] Dibblah: I'm running with EIT disabled and don't see that.
[10:30:03] stuarta: Dibblah: that'd be my thought as well.
[10:30:12] stuarta: Merlin83b: what's broken today?
[10:30:13] Merlin83b: Do you watch Futurama, stuarta?
[10:30:36] stuarta: yup, sadly i've recorded/watched & deleted all of them
[10:30:44] Merlin83b: Have you seen the ep Time Keeps On Slipping, with the chronotons and the Harlem Globetrotters?
[10:30:51] Ruleke: I lost all my futurama recordings :/
[10:30:53] stuarta: yup
[10:31:04] Dibblah: Wish there was some way to do 'total time spent inside function x' in oprofile / opannotate :(
[10:31:12] Merlin83b: My recordings are like that. They keep skipping chunks.
[10:31:31] Dibblah: Rather than 'total time spent executing code which is in function x'...
[10:31:51] stuarta: assume you've verified your db isn't corrupt (esp. recordedmarkup)???
[10:32:12] Merlin83b: Did the optimize/repair contrib script and it says all is well.
[10:32:44] stuarta: Dibblah: there might be, but i'd expect to have to insert some profiling calls in the code
[10:32:46] Merlin83b: I'd look through the log but my IP has changed and your suggestion of using the router's built in dyndns.org stuff means I can't get at it now :-(
[10:33:07] stuarta: it don't work?
[10:33:13] Merlin83b: Seems not to.
[10:33:21] Merlin83b: Had a couple of changes and each time it doesn't update.
[10:33:21] stuarta: useless router.
[10:33:33] stuarta: not a netgear is it?
[10:33:47] Merlin83b: Linsys
[10:33:51] Merlin83b: Erm linksys
[10:34:02] Dagmar: Hmm... It may be in need of a firmware update
[10:34:11] stuarta: can't get mine to stay up during a storm.
[10:34:24] Dagmar: stuarta: Dude! Buy a UPS!
[10:34:26] Merlin83b: They have pills for that these days, stuarta.
[10:34:39] Merlin83b: Dagmar: I checked wuite recently and was ont he latest but I'll check again.
[10:34:45] Dagmar: Power spikes and noise in the lines do damage to chips over time
[10:34:57] quicksilver: which is good
[10:35:00] stuarta: Dagmar: by stay up I mean stay connected to the ISP in a manner that still allows communication.
[10:35:01] Ruleke: Merlin83b: those routers don't work with dyndns other than dyndns.org or something... friend of mine has a linksys too, and dyndns.tv doesn't work, yet dyndns.org or whatever does... go figure
[10:35:03] quicksilver: it's an excuse to buy new shiny stuff!
[10:35:08] Dagmar: Just because lightning doesn't strike the house and turn it into superheated plasma doesn't mean those electrical storms aren't affecting your equipment.
[10:35:20] Merlin83b: Ruleke: It's set to use dyndns.org.
[10:35:27] Ruleke: well then that's not it :)
[10:35:35] Merlin83b: Thanks :-P
[10:35:40] Dagmar: quicksilver: Problem is that you usually spend months tolerating the now flaky, unstable/damaged stuff before you get to that point
[10:36:31] stuarta: Dagmar: it's their code that's crap.
[10:37:22] stuarta: all day thurs, I could get a TCP connection, but UDP was failing (ie. no DNS)

[10:38:15] Dagmar: Only something doing masquerading is going to care, and in those cases, if it's screwing up it's more likely to be the hardware than anything esle.
[10:38:28] stuarta: Merlin83b: not without the database being corrupt
[10:38:55] Merlin83b: I'll check on that again later on. How would that cause little skips though?
[10:39:15] Merlin83b: Would that cause them in the playback or the recording? I haven't tried playing back on my desktop yet.
[10:39:35] stuarta: also try mplayer playback for comparison
[10:40:16] Merlin83b: So it's the internal player playback rather than the recording at fault if the db is currupt?
[10:40:57] stuarta: generally, since info from recordedmarkup is used during playback, whereas mplayer etc don't have that info
[10:41:15] Merlin83b: I see. I'll have a go later on and let you know. Thanks.
[10:41:57] stuarta: can also try using mythcommflag to rebuild the seektable.
[10:42:32] Merlin83b: Right, I'll have a play later and see.
[10:49:12] Taskinen: I upgraded from 0.19-fixes to 0.20. In backend logs, is these "match[0]: 0 '' vs. ''" lines normal? Also it seems that mysqld is producing ~1.40 loads (with 0.19-fixes) they used to be ~0.00 in the long run

[10:52:18] ** stuarta thinks about modifying the verbose level of those messages... **
[10:53:08] Taskinen: so it is doing some database migrating, thus the mysql load?

[10:53:34] stuarta: Taskinen: you using EIT data?
[10:53:42] Taskinen: stuarta: yes
[10:54:05] stuarta: most likely that then.
[10:59:48] Ruleke: I've never seen huge loads because of EIT myself... strange
[11:00:03] Ruleke: or is my EIT dataset just insanely small maybe... hmm
[11:00:07] stuarta: we made sure it wasn't huge :)
[11:00:22] Ruleke: well it runs on a p2–300 here... :P
[11:00:51] stuarta: the uk is the worst due to all the fixups done to the data...
[11:01:06] Ruleke: oicd
[11:01:17] Ruleke: no fixups here I guess
[11:01:21] Ruleke: what sort of fixups
[11:01:59] stuarta: EIT data is of the form Title/Description munged to Title/Subtitle/Description
[11:02:34] stuarta: plus annoying things regexp'd out, and flags set from little things in the data..
[11:03:26] Taskinen: yes, it seems that mysqld is doing some replaces and deletes to eit_cache table
[11:03:37] Taskinen: well, let's just wait and see if it calms down
[11:03:49] stuarta: Taskinen: it'll keep doing that
[11:04:14] stuarta: it now uses a cache to determine if the EIT data has been seen before.
[11:04:58] Taskinen: hmm, then I'll have to take a look what process is causing those loads
[11:06:20] stuarta: out of interest. how did you determine it was doing replaces & deletes on eit_cache table?
[11:06:40] Taskinen: by looking /var/log/mysql/
[11:07:01] stuarta: the bin logs?
[11:07:07] Taskinen: yes
[11:07:33] stuarta: makes sense, have them turned off to conserve space.
[11:08:02] Taskinen: seems a good idea, 187 MB of logs
[11:08:29] stuarta: not needed in a single box setup...
[11:09:51] Taskinen: maybe I should reset the mythconverg database and start all over again
[11:10:01] stuarta: why?
[11:10:44] Taskinen: ok, I guess not then :)
[11:11:03] Taskinen: I just thought that maybe those old 0.19-fixes entries are causing some extra work
[11:11:17] stuarta: nope.
[11:11:31] stuarta: no point in losing all your recording history...
[11:11:54] Taskinen: ok, thanks for the info!

[11:33:53] LabMonkey: there's one other factor
[11:33:56] stuarta: s/bad/slightly unhappy/ ??
[11:34:02] LabMonkey: I also upgraded to 0.20
[11:34:27] Dagmar: The good news is that if you'll check the Wiki for "DisplaySize" it will tell you how to specify the height and width of the display in your xorg.conf so that the DPI of the display is *always* 100DPI, which is something Myth depends on, although it screws up much less with 0.20 than it did with 0.19
[11:34:45] Dagmar: The "bad news" is that you might have to break out a pocket calculator if you have a strange resolution
[11:35:08] LabMonkey: well
[11:35:13] Dagmar: I made sure everything in that section is as crystal clear as possible. If the word "DisplaySize" in what you're looking at is blue, click on it and you'll get the really explicit details
[11:35:26] LabMonkey: when I fire up gdm it comes up in 1280x720 like it should

[11:58:58] Dagmar: I didn't even know what the deal was that people were having at first with sounds stopping and "queuing up" because I've just always bought SoundBlaster cards, and have been using SBLive! cards since they came out. Everything just always played fine for me. :)
[11:59:44] Dagmar: I was getting kind of disappointed that one of the useful things esd can do is cache a sound so that it can be played instantaneously so there's no lag of opening and reading the file, and no one ever seemed interested in using that feature except for Rasterman and E

[12:09:18] Ruleke: romantic

[12:09:33] Dagmar: Lots of nice white noise, and it kept the apartment warm in the winter.

[13:07:02] pluesch0r: Taskinen: i'm using version 0.19, got the frontend precompiled from the url that's listed in the wiki.
[13:07:29] Taskinen: pluesch0r: ok, i guess there is no 0.20 frontend for osx yet
[13:08:05] pluesch0r: Taskinen: there is. but a 0.20 backend would require me to update too much other software on my server.
[13:09:09] Taskinen: oh, I'll have to check that out

[13:49:22] rushfan: So I took a sick day today to fix it. hah
[13:49:31] rushfan: Oh well. Gotta do watcha gotta do. ;-)
[13:51:39] stuarta: looks like you are trying to build with gcc3 and the libs are built with gcc4
[13:51:54] rushfan: :|
[13:51:58] rushfan: But I don't even have gcc3
[13:52:00] rushfan: Or do I?
[13:52:05] rushfan: I better look into this.
[13:52:24] rushfan: Nope. I only have 4.1.1
[13:52:30] rushfan: And I recompiled my entire system
[13:52:30] stuarta: or vice versa.
[13:52:34] rushfan: Should I try recompiling again?
[13:52:50] r10: what do I need to do to fix the sound on the new internal DVD player (my sound is okay else) ?
[13:53:17] stuarta: rushfan: looks like you need to rebuild qt & plugins.
[13:53:25] rushfan: I already tried rebuilding qt.
[13:53:35] stuarta: plugins?
[13:53:42] rushfan: Err, which plugins?
[13:53:56] stuarta: qt plugins
[13:54:01] rushfan: Right now QT 3 and 4 are re-compiling. Just to be safe
[13:54:08] rushfan: Hmm. Are those seperate from QT?
[13:54:36] rushfan: Like I'm compiling QT-4.1.4 right now. Qt 3 is next
[13:54:43] stuarta: not familiar with the qt build, but they are normally packaged separately
[13:55:12] rushfan: Ok. I'll just search for all packages related to QT
[13:55:19] stuarta: it's complaining specifically about the mysql db plugin for qt3
[13:55:24] rushfan: Odd, because mythtv worked fine. But then I did a system update and mythtv stopped working. :(
[13:55:27] rushfan: Ok
[13:56:01] Tronic: IIRC, Gentoo's emerge -e world may not recompile packages using multiple slots.
[13:56:12] rushfan: Ok.
[13:56:21] Tronic: qt-3 being an example of this (only qt-4 getting compiled).
[13:56:41] rushfan: Well I already recompiled QT. Now I'll try the plugins. :|
[13:57:02] Tronic: Portage really requires improvement in terms of dep handling.,
[13:57:05] r10: how do I setup the internal DVD player ?
[13:58:10] rushfan: I don't se any packages with just the libs.
[13:58:30] rushfan: Tronic: well it works great for installing things, however the real problem is that when you uninstall things you get stuck with tons of useless deps.
[13:58:43] rushfan: I really like portage though. Sometimes, yes, it can be a pain though. Like now
[13:59:46] Tronic: rushfan: emerge --depclean should do that.
[14:00:08] Tronic: However, it also often breaks the system due to packages having b0rked deps.
[14:00:19] rushfan: Yeah. Thus I don't use it./
[14:00:32] rushfan: Revdep-rebuild also fails to find a-lot of problems. A-lot of times you have to manually enter package names.
[14:00:39] rushfan: MY system was broken yesterday. Obviously its still broken
[14:00:44] Tronic: I use that once in a while, then manually reinstall the packages that shouldn't have been removed.
[14:00:58] Tronic: revdep-rebuild NEVER worked for me.
[14:01:23] Tronic: Really, never. I have frequently tried it, on several machines, but every time with no luck.
[14:01:54] Tronic: Most of the time it is unable to resolve something and won't even start the actual build.

[14:16:37] rushfan: I suppose I'd just be super careful if I used it as a server

[15:35:06] GreyFoxx: And depending on the script you might WANT it to belinear if app A must be running before app b
[15:35:27] GreyFoxx: otherwise just add a & to each call if you don't care

[17:01:15] metalac: antiPosix: are you using XvMC?
[17:01:31] antiPosix: metalac: I do not know
[17:01:35] metalac: also what resolution are you running on? try increasing TV resolution in recording profiles

[17:02:34] antiPosix: 1024xsomething is my res
[17:02:58] Anduin: finalbeta_: So set it up for whatever user you want.
[17:03:13] metalac: antiPosix: that's the myth UI resolution, not the resolution of TV stream
[17:03:21] Anduin: antiPosix: The resolution of the content, not your screen
[17:03:24] antiPosix: 540xsomething
[17:03:44] metalac: antiPosix: bump it up all the way and see if it changes things

Can mythtv use this? Or do I need to somehow shut sound of in mythtv and use the command myself?
[17:51:56] kormoc: finalbeta_, erm. if you're only gonna watch live tv, you don't need myth
[17:52:25] kormoc: finalbeta_, and no, you don't want to do that with myth, you just need to tell myth to record from /dev/dsp1 and playback on /dev/dsp
[17:52:33] finalbeta_: It's handy it can record/ time shift
[17:52:50] kormoc: finalbeta_, yeah, but if you run that command with myth, you'd timeshift the video, but not the audio...
[17:53:01] finalbeta_: indeed

[18:12:27] bengoodger: as long as it works you should be ok
[18:12:31] briand: but i also was (one-time record) recording The Concert for Bangladesh

I manually ran the same mythreplex command line, and found that it had segfaulted.

[18:20:12] bengoodger: hmm
[18:20:55] bengoodger: you can either do as RMS says and fix it yourself, or you can report a bug or comment on an existing one before waiting for the devs to fix it
[18:21:50] kormoc: JoshTriplett, without debug symbols, that stack will look hosed no matter what, you really should recompile with debug symbols and trace it again

[18:22:34] bengoodger: welcome back, kormoc

[18:25:33] rushfan: yeahy
[18:25:41] JoshTriplett: bengoodger: It also occurs to me to wonder if having IVTV VBI embedding could break mythreplex.
[18:25:52] kormoc: in my opinion, I would open up a bug on svn.mythtv.org and see what comes out of it

[18:26:01] bengoodger: JoshTriplett: yeah, that could be it
[18:26:02] Anduin: It isn't a myth bug
[18:26:30] rushfan: I 'spose I could do another emerge -e world
[18:26:35] JoshTriplett: bengoodger: Do you know a way to strip those out of a file?
[18:26:37] kormoc: Anduin, well, if the plugin has build key "x86_64 Linux g++-3.* full-config" hardcoded...
[18:26:54] bengoodger: JoshTriplett: that was so far over my head, sorry
[18:26:54] rushfan: Well it worked before. Then I upgraded and it stopped working. :(
[18:27:15] Anduin: kormoc: Yeah, but that is Qt checking not myth
[18:27:36] kormoc: true, but my impression is qt won't check that unless asked?
[18:28:09] rushfan: Yeah. Mythtv must be request a GCC 3 build key
[18:29:05] benc_ (benc_!n=benc@markcaswell.dsl.visi.com) has joined #mythtv-users
[18:29:11] Anduin: rushfan: Uh, build key is assigned entirely outside of myth, entirely unrelated to myth. You'd get your error when the Qt lib you link to tried to load a plugin (like the Qt MySQL driver) that was built with a different version.
[18:30:02] bengoodger: you know, this would all be fixed if you didn't insist on compiling the thing from scratch
[18:30:48] rushfan: But it wasnt built from a different version :(
[18:31:01] rushfan: Mythtv was made with gcc 4.1.4, as was MySQL, and QT
[18:31:07] rushfan: They should all be on the same page

[18:32:23] rushfan: I say stuff it, cause binary based distributions are slow
[18:32:28] Anduin: rushfan: luckily you can use strings on the libs to verify
[18:32:39] rushfan: Anduin: I can do what now?
[18:34:04] Anduin: rushfan: You can look at the libs and look for the strings, really the error message is the friendly version so there isn't much need to actually check, but it may make you feel better.
[18:34:40] rushfan: Well I'm going to submit a bug at svn.mythtv.org
[18:34:42] rushfan: And see what happens
[18:34:49] Anduin: rushfan: I'll close it.

[21:20:04] Igg-man: paladine: I think there is an option that lets you trim off stuff a little bit

[21:20:12] Igg-man: Paladine: Do the menus fit just fine?

[21:23:34] Paladine: you PAL or NTSC?
[21:23:46] cronicus: so should i expect poor PQ with svideo TV out on FX5200?
[21:23:48] Paladine: native resolution on PAL is 720x576
[21:24:13] afrosheen: Igg-man, that's what I'm using too..with frontend tweaks to combat overscan, although native res is 1366x768
[21:24:16] Paladine: not sure what NTSC is but it isn't anything ike 1280x720
[21:24:36] Paladine: you are obviously talking about lcdtv's
[21:24:37] xris: ntsc is theoretically 720x480
[21:24:48] Paladine: which is not native tv resolution
[21:24:54] xris: that's the theoretical max
[21:24:59] Paladine: xris, yeah I thought it was something like that
[21:24:59] Igg-man: afrosheen: I can't remember what it was... I grabbed it from the TV manual when I was setting it up
[21:25:01] afrosheen: yeah native is closer to 620x400 or less I think
[21:25:02] Igg-man: Looks good for me
[21:25:09] afrosheen: for ntsc tube sets
[21:25:10] xris: analog tv and "resolution" don't really go together very well, though
[21:25:21] xris: afrosheen: I'd always heard 512x384
[21:25:31] afrosheen: that's why I threw less in there :)

[21:26:02] afrosheen: you can literally count the mpeg blocks in some scenes
[21:26:03] xris: still better than analog.
[21:26:15] Paladine: my digitial tv is 720x576 apart from widescreen broadcasts
[21:26:33] Paladine: and 5149kb/s seems to be the common bitrate on SkyTV

[21:27:40] afrosheen: Igg-man, I'm the same way at times
[21:28:09] Igg-man: afrosheen: It does depend on how good stuff compressed too. Like for voice audio, mp3 is fine
[21:28:11] afrosheen: but everyone should know by now a 128k mp3 is shameful compared to a quality lp :)
[21:28:14] Igg-man: I like the flac files though
[21:28:25] xris: Igg-man: here, it's all digital to start out with.
[21:29:06] xris: before, it was digitized analog, and then back to analog on the wire
[21:29:09] Igg-man: xris: I suppose Analog -> mythtv -> my tv is worse than DVB -> MythTV -> MyTV
[21:29:22] afrosheen: I just started using the 16:9 widescreen switch with mplayer and xine and suddenly dvds look amazing
[21:29:23] Igg-man: xris: what do you use for capture?
[21:29:29] xris: Igg-man: firewire

[21:34:59] afrosheen: man I might give one of those a try, I suspect something about the 6412 is doing the encryption

[21:41:00] xris: mah_meh: highly recommended to grab mythweb from the .20-fixes branch in svn — there are fixes that didn't make it into the release tarball

[21:41:25] Igg-man: xris: Are you doing developement for mythtv?
[21:41:34] xris: Igg-man: mythweb and nuvexport are "mine"
[21:41:38] mah_meh: saying*
[21:41:54] mah_meh: ill have a chew on that for a while, thanks guys, wish id been smart enough to think of that
[21:41:57] xris: mah_meh: sounds like .htaccess isn't getting loaded properly. read the readme about how to configure apache
[21:42:09] Igg-man: xris: sweet. Does MythArchive use nuvexport?
[21:42:09] mah_meh: it definately is
[21:42:15] xris: not yet
[21:42:17] xris: Igg-man: ^^
[21:42:18] mah_meh: because i have a database setup error
[21:42:27] mah_meh: The database environment variables are not correctly set in the

[21:42:34] xris: mah_meh: permission, or "variables not set"?
[21:42:35] mah_meh: thats from mythweb.php
[21:42:47] Igg-man: mah_meh: Did you edit the config.php file (or whatever it was named)?
[21:42:48] mah_meh: variables not set
[21:42:54] xris: mah_meh: yes. read how to set up apache so that it can actually READ the .htaccess config
[21:42:59] xris: it's all covered in the readme
[21:43:04] xris: Igg-man: no confg.php in .20
[21:43:34] Igg-man: xris: Oh... didn't notice. I just cp'd ../oldmythweb/.htaccess . It worked, I didn't complain

[21:47:45] stuarta: any echostar satellite users around?
[21:47:52] mah_meh: Finally, and THIS IS VERY VERY IMPORTANT, you should then edit the file

[21:50:13] xris: SlicerDicer-: oh well
[21:50:53] mah_meh: problem is xris, i suck, so i have no idea about using that svn version, other than trying to wget that site or something ")
[21:51:04] xris: mah_meh: just paste that command
[21:51:05] SlicerDicer-: xris: hey been meaning to ask you
[21:51:12] xris: it'll create a directory called "mythweb" with the checkout in it
[21:51:23] mah_meh: okay so i should do it at the root
[21:51:24] SlicerDicer-: what would cause mythweb to not display properly? it loads everything but searchs and listings
[21:51:35] mah_meh: i.e. apache root
[21:51:37] xris: mah_meh: you can always move the directory if it goes into the wrong place
[21:51:43] mah_meh: okay tx

[22:08:13] tank-man: i dont think it can do it "as is", automatically. probably a user job will
[22:09:21] damian666: tank-man: so all this options are useless ?

[22:12:48] tank-man: mythcommflag --gencutlist
[22:13:32] tank-man: but you would have to set it to run the user job script at a future time cause it takes time to detect the commercials
[22:15:34] nandy_: does anyone know much about lirc?
[22:15:55] kormoc: tank-man, won't they run in order? #2 waits for #1 to finish?
[22:15:55] nandy_: like how it sets up its version magic string
[22:17:39] tank-man: kormoc, oh yea. but there is an option to run jobs simultaniously too
[22:17:47] damian666: tank-man: mythcommflag --gencutlist cuts the commercials  ? or does ffmpeg later on recognize the "cuts" ?
[22:18:43] tank-man: i think it sets up the points for cutting for when you use mythtranscode+ffmpeg

[22:21:22] damian666: word: is there any feature of mysql5 that is used in the db ?

[22:22:57] damian666: tank-man: and i need to use mythtranscode to transcode and remove commercials ? (cause my files are already to in mpeg2 format)
[22:23:23] damian666: tank-man: transcode meant as convert

[23:37:15] Brains: Flimzy: No, the downloads could be a cron job on a machine behind a wall somewhere. Not saying the info is worth much, but it is some info.
[23:37:33] Anduin: kormoc: They actually have pay accounts working now?
[23:38:47] kormoc: Anduin, well, they provide the content to tvguide.com, so I would imagine that if you are willing to pay as much as tvguide is, they can hook you up
[23:40:34] Anduin: kormoc: Ah, yeah, I keep expecting one day that they will have actual for-pay individual accounts.
[23:40:41] Flimzy: Well normally they have actual surveys
[23:40:51] Flimzy: I guess this time they just couldn't think of anything useful to ask me
[23:41:31] Flimzy: metalac: What problems do you have with firewire?
[23:42:23] metalac: Flimzy: well first of all nodes changes all the time so once is 0, once is 1 so everytime i restart it changes, then TV will work for a while and while I watch it's all cool, i walk away for half an hour I come back and it doesn't
[23:42:42] Flimzy: hrmph
[23:42:47] Flimzy: what firewire controller do you have in the pc?
[23:43:01] Flimzy: Some of the reading I did today seems to suggest that some firewire controllers are more finicky than others
[23:43:15] metalac: that's what i figured too
[23:43:23] metalac: so i'm trying to find out which is the one that works 100%

[23:43:46] metalac: i have this: Texas Instruments TSB12LV26 IEEE-1394 Controller
[23:43:55] Flimzy: There's no way to get MythTV to work with 5C channels at present, is there?
[23:43:56] metalac: apparently a not so good one :)
[23:44:03] metalac: Flimzy: not that i know off

[23:44:23] metalac: I'm lucky only 2 of mine are 5C and that's Vh1 and PPV
[23:44:58] Flimzy: I have a VIA controller onboard
[23:45:10] metalac: i was gona borrow a few from some friends and try it out
[23:45:12] Flimzy: and I have a PCI one I may use if necessary--but I don't have enough PCI slots on this mainboard if it comes to that, so I'm hoping not
[23:45:25] Flimzy: All of the premium channels here are 5C
[23:45:29] Flimzy: which means no HD movies for me :(
[23:45:40] Flimzy: and a good number of the standard channels I don't care about are 5C
[23:45:59] Flimzy: Which just means I'll continue using the Cox DVR service for HD movies
[23:46:10] Flimzy: But at least I can stop using it for everything else!
[23:46:32] Flimzy: And I'll consider getting an old satelilte receiver I can hack into doing HD at some point... if I care enough
[23:46:34] Flimzy: even tho I work for Cox
[23:46:34] metalac: i have no premium channels, too pricy and I got netflix anyways :)

[23:51:37] ** GreyFoxx loves his cable modem *hug* **

[23:51:59] Flimzy: There's no way to use both tuners in a dual-tuner 6200 STB is there?

[23:52:33] GreyFoxx: exceptwhen I'm on call
[23:52:40] Paladine: I was on 24/7 call :/
[23:52:51] GreyFoxx: I did that for a couple years,no more
[23:53:00] Flimzy: I hate the way MythTV scales
[23:53:06] Flimzy: So often dialogs are cut short for no reason
