[00:11:36] | Fnc: | nm you get a lot more response from google when you spell mythtv correct |
[00:12:46] | Saviq: | lol |
[00:14:32] | psofa: | LOL |
[00:14:54] | psofa: | Gazo, i use vlc |
[00:19:21] | Gazo: | do you find that it works well ? .. Are there any special options for vlc and mythtv ? |
[00:20:44] | Gazo: | other than in the mythtv wiki ? |
[00:21:00] | siXy: | Gazo, unless you have agood reason for doing so i would reccomend mplayer, as its been the mythvideo player for a long time now and is a lot more tested |
[00:21:45] | Gazo: | O.k thanks siXy .. that's kinda what I was wondering :) |
[00:22:52] | siXy: | its cant do quite as much as xine or vlc... but is sufficent for most needs. dont use it for dvds, however |
[00:24:06] | Gazo: | I've just been using the internal one for dvd's which seems to be working fine .. |
[00:24:51] | Gazo: | I'm mostly thinking about mythvideo .. i want to play xvid and divx .. |
[00:25:07] | siXy: | yeah the internal one works great for almost everything. some menus are slightly buggy is the only thing so far but that will hopefully be fixed soon |
[00:25:20] | Gazo: | ok , thanks :) |
[00:27:10] | Gazo: | now I just need to try and get mythstream to work correctly :P |
[00:28:48] | siXy: | mythstream |

[00:30:07] | Gazo: | Well , he says it works with myth20 on his page .. |
[00:30:18] | Gazo: | its not a default plugin .. |
[00:30:20] | siXy: | hmm. what version of it are you running? |
[00:30:23] | Gazo: | its third party .. |
[00:30:33] | Gazo: | allows you to play shoutcast streams etc .... |
[00:30:40] | siXy: | yeah i know what it is |
[00:30:43] | Gazo: | well it's supposed to anyway :P |

[00:31:42] | levander: | Anybody got a good page to read about what it's like to hook my Myth box up to a cable box for purposes of digital cable? |
[00:31:49] | Gazo: | the latest o the page .. ahh .. mythstream-v0.17_2.tar.gz |
[00:31:51] | Zider: | mythstream works just fine here |
[00:32:01] | Zider: | only 0.17 tho |
[00:32:22] | Gazo: | really ? .. hmm maybe I should try installing an older one ... |
[00:32:44] | Gazo: | what version of mythtv are you using Zider ? |
[00:33:20] | Zider: | 0.20something |
[00:33:24] | Gazo: | What kind of player does it use ... ? Internal ? |
[00:33:34] | Gazo: | ok .. well at least theres hope :P |
[00:33:45] | Zider: | mythstream uses mplayer |
[00:33:54] | Gazo: | ok .. cool ... |
[00:34:05] | siXy: | Gazo, ymmv. legacy plugins do not work for everyone. |
[00:35:05] | Gazo: | ok .. do you know if there is any other kind of this functionality with any other myth plugins (being actively supported?) .. I love the idea of plaging streaming content .. |
[00:35:11] | siXy: | mythstream hasnt been updated since 0.17 and for at least some people is broken. if it works for Zider however it may work for you too. |
[00:35:33] | Gazo: | I think I'm going to try that specific version ... |
[00:35:39] | siXy: | Gazo, if you want to play streamed content i would advocate exploring vlc as your mythvideo player |
[00:36:05] | Gazo: | hehe ... ok ... |
[00:36:08] | Zider: | Gazo: I believe mythmusic is planned to get that functionality some day, but Idunno if anything has been done yet |
[00:36:51] | siXy: | Zider, as far as i know thats a long way off. mythmusic needs urgent work done on it before new features are added |
[00:37:02] | Zider: | siXy: true |
[00:37:14] | Gazo: | hopfully I can get it working .. the plugin loads fine and everything .. it loads up fine and dandy .. it just doesn't parse any streams .. it just says "invalid url" :( |
[00:37:14] | Zider: | like a usable interface ;) |
[00:37:19] | siXy: | yeah :) |
[00:37:25] | Gazo: | :P |
[00:37:33] | Zider: | Gazo: have you entered the urls correctly? :P |

[00:40:55] | eskil: | Zider, there's a shoutcast patch for mythmusic at http://eskil.org/mythtv/. |

[00:41:29] | Zider: | nah, I'm not patching |
[00:41:30] | eskil: | It should be update for svn head, not for 0.20. |
[00:41:39] | Zider: | I wait for it to be properly released |
[00:42:10] | eskil: | Well, that's going to be a long time. |
[00:42:22] | Gazo: | hehe ... |
[00:42:24] | Zider: | well, until then, mythstream works ;) |
[00:42:38] | Gazo: | well for you maybe :P |
[00:43:03] | Zider: | ofcourse :D |
[00:43:05] | Gazo: | I'm changing some of the parser options ... hopefully it will work .. |
[00:43:08] | siXy: | tbh im quite surprised that a 0.17 plugin works with the .20 backend |
[00:43:48] | Gazo: | well the latest version was out on 2006 oct 13 .. that's not THAT long ago .. |
[00:44:11] | xris: | siXy: frontend. and just means that it doesn't really do anything other than sit in the menu |
[00:44:48] | xris: | Gazo: latest version of what? |
[00:45:22] | xris: | oh, mythstream. apparently unofficial, which would explain why I've never seen it in the source tree. lol |

[00:47:54] | xris: | siXy: not really. just database login info, which can be pulled from mysql.txt. |
[00:48:06] | Cardoe: | mythweb is giving me an internal server error |
[00:48:14] | xris: | Cardoe: svn? |
[00:48:21] | Cardoe: | 0.20-fixes |
[00:48:24] | siXy: | fair enough |
[00:48:36] | xris: | Cardoe: odd. I haven't touched that recently. |
[00:48:38] | xris: | what's the error? |

[00:49:23] | Cardoe: | I haven't changed squat in like 3–4 weeks |
[00:49:56] | xris: | Cardoe: apache error logs should give you the actual error |
[00:49:58] | Cardoe: | I powered off the box to stick in the pcHDTV... but didn't compile the kernel modules |
[00:51:44] | Cardoe: | unable to connect to backend |
[00:52:01] | Cardoe: | oddly enough restarting apache and then refreshing the page gives me the pretty error version |

[00:52:52] | Cardoe: | Myth segfaults when it finds a new encoder it doesn't know anything about |
[00:53:01] | xris: | lol |
[00:53:02] | moto125: | hey guys I need some help: I'm trying to install mythweb and the guides that I'm looking at say to modify my .htaccess file. I can't find a .htaccess file anywhere |
[00:53:03] | xris: | ouch |
[00:53:21] | Cardoe: | and I had the pcHDTV module compiled already |
[00:53:21] | xris: | moto125: install mythweb from where? tarball or svn stable checkout? |
[00:53:28] | moto125: | tar |
[00:53:32] | Cardoe: | xris: it's a super-duper feature. |
[00:53:39] | xris: | Cardoe: no kidding |
[00:53:41] | gu014: | how do i set the correct time in mythtv? my time setting is incorrect? |
[00:54:03] | xris: | moto125: should be in mythplugins/mythweb/.htaccess |
[00:54:15] | xris: | which you would then copy into wherever your document root is. |
[00:54:18] | moto125: | yea, i know... but it isn't |
[00:54:30] | moto125: | it wasn't in the tarball when i unpacked it |
[00:55:20] | xris: | moto125: are you sure that your ls command isn't just ignoring dotfiles? |
[00:55:33] | xris: | anyway, grab this instead: http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/browser/trunk/myth . . . .conf.apache |
[00:55:40] | xris: | and read: http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/browser/trunk/myth . . . hweb/INSTALL |
[00:56:32] | xris: | moto125: I'd also recommend that if you're compiling from source, you grab the fixes branch from svn instead of the tarball. There are a number of bug fixes since the tarball was created. |
[00:56:45] | xris: | download instructions are here: http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ |
[00:56:53] | moto125: | I downloaded the tar from mythtv.org |
[00:57:10] | xris: | moto125: yes. and I'm saying that the tarball is out of date. |

[03:50:39] | sandeen: | but I'm still fighting with all this :) |
[03:50:42] | newpers: | 20 channels |
[03:50:59] | sandeen: | i got about 48, at least I could grab frames from 48... can't seem to tune them all in |
[03:51:07] | sandeen: | newpers, do you have an hdtv? |
[03:51:19] | xris: | that's a lot of channels |

[03:51:24] | levander_ is now known as levander | |
[03:52:02] | xris: | I can't even count 10 HD channels, and that includes hbo |
[03:52:40] | sandeen: | it took me forever to scan them :) |
[03:53:12] | xris: | I'm not scanning. just counting the ones that show up. |
[03:53:26] | xris: | and are you sure you're not confusing subchannels? (not that it would bring me anywhere near 20) |
[03:53:38] | sandeen: | i'm new to this, what's a subchannel :) |
[03:53:55] | newpers: | nope, i have basic cable |
[03:54:01] | newpers: | sorry for the delay |
[03:54:14] | sandeen: | newpers, but for a display? |
[03:54:50] | xris: | sandeen: PBS is one channel, but has 2–3 subchannels in HD mode. |
[03:54:53] | newpers: | ohh.. i have nothing good now. i am about to move and plan on building something later on |
[03:55:07] | xris: | for me, that's 9 for PBS (SD), 9.1, 9.2, 9.3, etc. for HD |
[03:55:18] | sandeen: | xris, well maybe that's it. put it this way, 48 lines in channels.conf that I could pull frames from |
[03:55:30] | xris: | sandeen: all HD, or does that include SD? |
[03:55:38] | newpers: | right now i want to build a simple frontend/backend for regular cable, which will be used just as a frontend later on |
[03:55:41] | xris: | (since depending on your card, you can probably pull both) |
[03:55:49] | sandeen: | xris, ah, right, many are standard def over digital/dvb |
[03:56:01] | sandeen: | so not all HD channels, but all DVB |
[03:56:07] | xris: | sandeen: ahh, gotcha. yeah, that makes sense, esp. if you're not in the US. |
[03:56:18] | sandeen: | actually I'm smack in the middle of the us :) |
[03:56:28] | xris: | then you don't have dvb |
[03:56:46] | sandeen: | er, ok, so wrong terminology... |
[03:56:59] | sandeen: | dtv ? |
[03:57:03] | xris: | it's atsc |
[03:57:09] | sandeen: | mpegs coming out of a device in /dev :) |
[03:57:23] | xris: | atsc and dvb-t (or dvb-c) do the same thing.. one is europe, the other is the US. |
[03:57:26] | xris: | sort of like AM vs FM |
[03:57:35] | sandeen: | so I thought atsc was over the air, qam was over cable..>? |
[03:57:47] | xris: | that, too |
[03:57:58] | sandeen: | too many TLAs |
[03:58:18] | xris: | either way, not dvb. just uses the dvb subsystem in the kernel so they didn't have two drivers doing the exact same thing and taking up twice as much space. |
[03:58:34] | sandeen: | ok |
[03:58:37] | sandeen: | gotcha |
[03:58:40] | xris: | anyway, it's interesting that you get unencrypted SD over QAM. |
[03:59:11] | sandeen: | yeah, haven't sorted out what channels they are yet, other than obvious ones like home shopping network :) |
[03:59:36] | xris: | usually pretty easy to tell from the callsign |
[03:59:50] | sandeen: | most don't seem to have it over ... um... EIT? |
[03:59:54] | xris: | ahh |
[03:59:57] | sandeen: | or do you mean the logo on the sreen? |
[04:00:02] | xris: | no, I meant EIT |
[04:00:10] | sandeen: | k |
[04:00:21] | xris: | or frequency ID, too.. assuming QAM has such a thing. |
[04:00:29] | xris: | I've only dealt with OTA stuff and firewire. |
[04:00:48] | sandeen: | so it seems like if I get some true HD and try to play it, it's horribly jerky as it tries to rescale it for my SD tv (which I think is currently set to 1024x768) |
[04:00:56] | sandeen: | any way to config things so it won't have to scale (as much?) |
[04:01:17] | xris: | you could just autotranscode to smaller files/res |
[04:01:32] | sandeen: | but that won't work for live tv I think |
[04:01:37] | xris: | nope |
[04:01:38] | sandeen: | or if it does, it's just as much cpu |
[04:01:40] | xris: | not much you can do for that. |
[04:01:49] | xris: | you need a faster CPU |
[04:01:53] | xris: | what speed is it now? |
[04:02:06] | sandeen: | 2gz p4 |
[04:02:16] | sandeen: | actually |
[04:02:17] | xris: | so bare minimum... |
[04:02:19] | sandeen: | model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.66GHz |
[04:02:28] | xris: | oh, odd. that should be enough |
[04:02:30] | sandeen: | and nvidia 5200, I think I have xvmc hoked up right |
[04:02:41] | xris: | scaling should be all in the video card, then. |
[04:02:45] | sandeen: | hmm |
[04:02:50] | xris: | it's decoding that's probably killing you |
[04:02:57] | sandeen: | there are like 5 million config options, maybe something is wrong :) |
[04:03:18] | xris: | could be |

[04:03:51] | sandeen: | so, 2.6 ghz isn't enough to decode hdtv...? |
[04:06:14] | Squeee: | sandeen: Do you have an nvidia card? |
[04:06:26] | xris: | it should be, but it depends on a million other things.. |
[04:07:21] | Squeee: | Because if you do you can enable XvMC which puts most of the strain on the video card instead... then you should be able to |
[04:07:28] | sandeen: | Squeee, I do |
[04:07:34] | Squeee: | try that |
[04:07:39] | sandeen: | 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200] (rev a1) |
[04:07:51] | sandeen: | Squeee, I think I have it on... any way to know for sure? |
[04:07:52] | Squeee: | Yea, thats what I have, it works pretty well |
[04:09:04] | ** sandeen wodners how much memory is on it ** | |
[04:09:23] | Squeee: | you might have to actually rebuild mplayer and mythtvfrontend with XvMC support |
[04:10:23] | Squeee: | I just found some benchmarks, on a computer where it normally requires 95% of hte cpu to play video, with XvMC it takes it to 45% |
[04:10:31] | Squeee: | that is with your cpu |
[04:10:48] | sandeen: | pretty sure I saw cpu usage go down when playing dvds when I enabled it |
[04:10:50] | sandeen: | so probably working |
[04:10:59] | Squeee: | http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/XvMC#Example_CPU_Savings |
[04:11:14] | sandeen: | hmm 128M |
[04:11:17] | sandeen: | yeah, I saw that |
[04:11:29] | sandeen: | but, I get about 65% cpu when playing dvd I think |
[04:11:54] | sandeen: | any suggestions for a sound card that can do digital passthru? |
[04:12:07] | Squeee: | hmm, any audigy should do |
[04:12:15] | sandeen: | I have a usb card that has spdif but not sure I quite trust it; alsa doesn't seemto see the digital out |
[04:12:22] | sandeen: | though the receiver says it sees dolby digital |
[04:12:37] | sandeen: | what do you use for the adapter from the digital jack to SDIF? |
[04:12:53] | Squeee: | I dont use sdif, I just know audigy is good at it |
[04:13:00] | sandeen: | k |
[04:13:48] | sandeen: | buy.com + google checkout makes buying myth parts very nice :) |
[04:14:02] | Squeee: | dude newegg.com for the win |
[04:14:19] | Squeee: | i basically bought my machine from there, all except the case |
[04:14:20] | sandeen: | right now you can get $20 off $50 at buy.com and lots of free shipping |
[04:14:30] | sandeen: | so my hdtv tuner came out to $32 after rebate |
[04:14:34] | sandeen: | ... if I get the rebate :) |
[04:14:40] | Squeee: | nice... |
[04:14:58] | sandeen: | but now I need to go hackity hack to try to get the remote working :) |
[04:15:00] | Squeee: | I have yet to try mythtv with a hd tuner |
[04:15:15] | sandeen: | it's my first shot at it but it's what motivated me |
[04:15:24] | Squeee: | cool |
[04:15:31] | sandeen: | i'd like HD, but I'm used to TiVo and no way I'lll shell out $900 for a series 3 |
[04:15:43] | Squeee: | tivo makes me feel dirty... |
[04:15:51] | sandeen: | yeah, a little :) |
[04:15:55] | Squeee: | Does anyone in here have a good way to encode recorded tv to Xvid or another good codec? The build in transcoder is weak >_< |
[04:16:07] | sandeen: | if I had any code in the kernel they used I'd feel better but I think they use 2.2 or something :) |
[04:16:26] | Squeee: | tivo uses linux? |
[04:16:29] | sandeen: | yeah |
[04:16:39] | Squeee: | ... where is the source for that? |
[04:16:48] | Squeee: | wow i can't believe i didn't know that |
[04:16:57] | sandeen: | on tivo.com i'm sure, though it's not all open source |
[04:17:00] | sandeen: | plus they lock down the hardware |
[04:17:10] | Squeee: | ha |
[04:17:13] | Squeee: | yea they have the 2.4 running |
[04:17:29] | sandeen: | ferinstance there is a binary-only usb wireless driver in it |
[04:17:33] | sandeen: | and lots more I'm sure |
[04:18:00] | sandeen: | it takes forever to boot, I think because it md5sums everytning on the system partition before it'll start :) |
[04:18:38] | ** sandeen works with the famous Jarod Wilson, I'll have to ask him some of these questions... ** | |
[04:20:01] | Squeee: | thats crazy... god forbid someone wants to take an interest in their product and do what they actually want with it... |
[04:20:38] | sandeen: | i suppose it may be fear of copyright suits for the content |

[04:35:59] | sandeen: | I worked on xfs @sgi for 5 years, I know what the streaming media people need, it'd be nice to teach mythtv a little of that |
[04:36:06] | Squeee: | oh cool |
[04:36:14] | Squeee: | i know the ubuntu wiki tells people to use xfs |
[04:36:17] | sandeen: | mostly making allocation more efficient |

[04:38:33] | Squeee: | er... if you are really... really...really good at shopping |
[04:38:39] | Squeee: | maybe |
[04:38:45] | newpers: | haha |
[04:40:07] | Squeee: | or you could get creative |
[04:40:20] | Squeee: | my roomate is making an msntv2 into a frontend |
[04:42:24] | newpers: | i do have a spare http://www.gumstix.com/waysmalls.html |
[04:42:26] | newpers: | jk |
[04:42:31] | Squeee: | heh |
[04:42:35] | Squeee: | thats a start |
[04:42:47] | Squeee: | maybe you could find a way to push the mythweb on it |
[04:46:40] | sandeen: | sorry was afk... |
[04:47:25] | Squeee: | thats unacceptable... i'm going to have to fine you |
[04:47:38] | sandeen: | newpers, I got a compaq 64-bit sempron w/ 100G drive & 256M last year for $125 AR :) |
[04:47:58] | sandeen: | add a $30 vid card and the $32 hdtv card I scored... that's under $220 :) |
[04:48:04] | Squeee: | hah |
[04:48:11] | sandeen: | but that box is running sandeen.net at the moment |
[04:49:01] | sandeen: | the pvr-150 is going to be the most expensive part of my setup so far |

[04:50:27] | Squeee: | http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16815116628 |
[04:50:33] | Squeee: | 135$ for a brand new one |
[04:50:36] | sandeen: | i was looking at systems that took half-height cards but I don't see any HDTV tuners that are half height |
[04:51:05] | Squeee: | you could go ghetto and use a thumbstick size one |
[04:51:07] | sandeen: | so what's in a pvr-500 |
[04:51:37] | Squeee: | 2 pvr 150s |
[04:51:41] | Squeee: | thats what i got |
[04:51:52] | sandeen: | Squeee, one of the things I'd like to do w/ teh fs is make it allocate in more contiguous chunks, that would solve that whole slow delete thing |
[04:51:56] | Squeee: | it takes your cable and splits it, so it really is just 2 tuners |
[04:52:09] | sandeen: | hmm 2 tuners on that card then? |
[04:52:09] | sandeen: | ah |
[04:52:20] | sandeen: | well I think 1 pvr-150 plus my hdtv card willdo the trick for me |
[04:52:26] | Squeee: | heh alright |
[04:52:33] | sandeen: | actually mine has a normal NTSC tuner on it too but probably can't use them at the same time |
[04:52:41] | Squeee: | oh cool |
[04:53:09] | Squeee: | i'm actually looking to get more tuners for this box... I have roomates that record with it like mad, and 2 isn't enough anymore |
[04:53:24] | sandeen: | my single-tuner tivo hasn't caused me much problem |
[04:53:36] | sandeen: | i think my focus on $$ will be storage space and, I guess, performance... |
[04:54:22] | Squeee: | I'm excited to try mythbackend slaves, that way i can make my roomates all house their own shows and maybe even a few tuners |

[07:57:11] | moath: | i don't get any errors when i start the frontend |

[14:58:09] | kenguru: | fred_basset, i don't understand you question, but i imported channels from channels.conf |
[14:58:20] | fred_basset: | ah, imported channels.conf |
[14:58:35] | fred_basset: | there is information missing from channels.conf that is required for eit to work |
[14:58:39] | kenguru: | yeah, because search won't work. |
[14:58:58] | fred_basset: | have you tried rescanning existing transports? |
[14:59:05] | kenguru: | but why mythtv says it have fetched eit data for next two weeks forward. |
[14:59:27] | fred_basset: | there might be 1 program with a date 2 wks ahead. |
[14:59:40] | kenguru: | where that data is stored so i can look it? |
[14:59:48] | fred_basset: | go into mysql and do select count(*) from program; |
[14:59:56] | seth|laptop: | i updated my mythtv to svn fixes last night, and it says it checked out version 12167. How do I check that it worked, and I am in fact running that version |
[15:00:30] | fred_basset: | seth|laptop: huh? if you checked it out, built it and installed it, that's what you are running |
[15:00:36] | kenguru: | i have 0.20–5 with patches. |
[15:01:19] | seth|laptop: | fred_basset: I used a script from a friend, and it looks as though it worked without a hitch, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't imagining things, ;-) |
[15:01:20] | BULLE: | seth|laptop: i doubt there is some automated post commit hook installed that updates the code for each commit |
[15:01:51] | BULLE: | seth|laptop: so there is no simple way, to know, just check your friends script, to see what it exactly checks out |
[15:02:16] | kenguru: | fred_basset, i only see there is two programs data what i have recorded manually |
[15:02:29] | kenguru: | mythbusters :) |
[15:02:56] | seth|laptop: | oh I watched it run, checkoout 12167, compile it, stop and restart the backend, then it did mythplugins 12167, compiled it and installed it, but it seemed like it was too easy. I.e no errors. Hard to beleive |
[15:02:57] | fred_basset: | ie. no guide data. please try rescanning existing transports for me. |
[15:03:16] | kenguru: | okay. |
[15:03:18] | BULLE: | while talking about dvb-c, anyone know how to solve problems with mpeg corruption, when using a CI/CAM setup, technotrend dvb-c card |
[15:03:30] | fred_basset: | it should then pickup the bits of information it needs. |
[15:03:31] | BULLE: | there is very little corruption, every 30 sec or so, |
[15:03:47] | BULLE: | only on encrypted channels |
[15:04:28] | fred_basset: | BULLE: there's a patch in trac regarding changing the timebase used for the CAM |
[15:04:37] | fred_basset: | wonder if that would help |
[15:04:57] | BULLE: | fred_basset: thanks, i will search a bit for it, and see if it helps |
[15:05:14] | fred_basset: | http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/2703 |
[15:05:47] | kenguru: | fred_basset, "found channel, but it doesn't match existing tsid. you may wish to delete existing channels and do a full scan.. " |
[15:06:26] | fred_basset: | which is why the eit data isn't working... |
[15:06:28] | kenguru: | and network net id 0x6f i think problem been earlier my cable company sends network id 0 |
[15:06:44] | fred_basset: | oh, you've got one of those networks.... |
[15:07:07] | fred_basset: | !trout cable_co not conforming to standards |
[15:07:08] | ** MythLogBot slaps cable_co with a not conforming to standards trout on behalf of fred_basset... ** | |
[15:07:50] | kenguru: | fred_basset, what should i say to cable company. |
[15:08:01] | kenguru: | because i want to be sure it's their fault, not mine. |
[15:08:21] | fred_basset: | won't help, they chose to broadcast it that way and their STB will decode it... |
[15:08:34] | fred_basset: | so you'll only get the finger. |
[15:08:57] | kenguru: | (cable company fellow is in another irc channel, they offer cable modems and i work in isp) |
[15:09:08] | Dagmar: | you'll just have to find out who is in charge of programming and schmooze them into doing your budding |
[15:09:22] | Dagmar: | er bidding |
[15:09:32] | fred_basset: | Dagmar: it's whoever programmed the head end equipment not programming |
[15:09:50] | Dagmar: | fred_basset: Yes, and internally those people are called programmers |
[15:10:03] | Dagmar: | ...and what they do (setting channels on frequencies and so forth) called programming |
[15:10:13] | ** fred_basset would have called them a broadcast engineer ** | |
[15:10:14] | Dagmar: | I know the one for my area well |
[15:10:15] | Dagmar: | :) |
[15:11:01] | fred_basset: | kenguru: feel free to ask them why they broadcast stuff with a netid of 0 when this is listed as reserved in the spec. |
[15:11:17] | kenguru: | okay. |
[15:11:29] | fred_basset: | don't expect anything more than a shrug. |
[15:11:44] | kenguru: | but if that netid would be 1 then mythtv would found channels with search? |
[15:12:32] | fred_basset: | a channel is identified by (netid, tsid, program number) |
[15:12:47] | fred_basset: | clearly a lot of STB's ignore netid |
[15:12:55] | kenguru: | but why windows dvb-c card software finds epg and channels? |
[15:13:07] | fred_basset: | different programming. |
[15:13:10] | janneg: | fred_basset: the scanner refuses to insert multiplexes with network id 0? |
[15:13:22] | fred_basset: | i have a ticket outstanding to make things work with netid = 0 |
[15:13:36] | Dagmar: | Told ya. Cats r smart |
[15:13:38] | fred_basset: | janneg: dunno. |

[15:20:18] | kenguru: | fred_basset, yeah. 0.20–5 with few patches. |

[15:30:41] | seth|laptop: | in order to get it to work |
[15:34:55] | elusis: | seth = this is a fresh install of mythtv.20 on ubuntu6.10 |
[15:35:53] | seth|laptop: | so then there was never a version of myth on it before? |
[15:35:58] | elusis: | justthe fact that when i look at the screenshots of mythweb i see there are links to TV, music, movies, weather andsettings, mine only displays tv, weather and settings |
[15:36:21] | elusis: | nope, I totally wiped the drive and did a fresh install |
[15:36:28] | seth|laptop: | well music I hear will not give you a link until you make a playlist |
[15:36:37] | crweb: | elusis: the menu's don't appear unless there is stuff in them |

[15:48:40] | GreyFoxx: | trevarthan: I haven't heard from anyone with a 360 to test it |
[15:48:46] | elusis: | it's the onboard trident on my K7VEM-Pro, 8Mb shared with system ram |
[15:48:59] | GreyFoxx: | You might require a fairly recent version of 0.20-fixes for it though |
[15:49:06] | elusis: | it's using a driver that ubuntu picked out |
[15:50:10] | |Torg|: | elusis what kind of video is this your playing? |
[15:50:14] | trevarthan: | GreyFoxx: is there anything special you have to do to enable upnp in mythtv? |
[15:51:25] | elusis: | the recorded show that mythtv recorded for me under the schedule, or it also happens when i try to play live video |
[15:51:50] | |Torg|: | yes elusis what kind of video is this and where did you record it from? |
[15:51:58] | elusis: | but like i said before, i can watch teh recorded shows wth VLC with no issues |
[15:52:21] | elusis: | i just cann't play them back inside mythtv |
[15:53:31] | GreyFoxx: | trevarthan: Nope, in 0.20 it's on by default |
[15:53:31] | |Torg|: | thew porblme you are decribing is askin to asking me why you cant open your front door, when you can open the back door. There is no common refernce between the two and there can be multiple reasons |
[15:54:07] | |Torg|: | if you can play video with vlc that proves that at some point the driver you selected for the video works, altho I sort of doubt with your video card and lack of memnery "without issue" |
[15:54:25] | |Torg|: | but you havnt said what driver you use for vlc or how you do so |

[15:54:48] | |Torg|: | likewise you havnt said what driver you use for X or what lib you use in myth to play video |
[15:55:06] | |Torg|: | this could be wrong card driver, this could be wrong X setup, this could be wrong myth setup |
[15:55:22] | |Torg|: | quite frankyly, without additional informaiton from yuou it could be allot of things |
[15:55:39] | elusis: | that's what i'm asking... the points i'm making are a) Mythtv will record shows i schedule. b) I cannot watch live tv under the mythfrontend c) I can watch the recorded show using VLC |
[15:55:40] | trevarthan: | GreyFoxx: damn. I tried to discover a windows media server, but it didn't detect anything. I guess that means the 360's upnp is incompatible. |
[15:56:26] | elusis: | so is there a setting in mythtv that i need to change to get the video drawn on the screen in the mythfrontend |

[16:00:58] | |Torg|: | GreyFoxx I have a 360 and a dlink-320 I also have several upmpd software servers, what did you want tested? |
[16:01:31] | GreyFoxx: | |Torg|: With very recent svn or 0.20-fixes to verify that you can see the server and the offered files |
[16:01:48] | GreyFoxx: | I have used a dlink 320 with it without any troubles |
[16:01:51] | |Torg|: | ok, I know it acts as a upnp client |
[16:02:07] | |Torg|: | I cant play the HD contenct from my BE on my dlkink so I usually dont try |
[16:02:11] | |Torg|: | but ill go check |
[16:02:16] | BULLE: | GreyFoxx: exactly what is exported via upnp in 0.20 ? the recordings, in whatever format it they were recorded in originaly, and nothing else ? |
[16:02:37] | ** BULLE noticed the 0.20 upnp in azureus upnp logs ** | |
[16:02:37] | |Torg|: | btw the 360 cant upnp vieo, so if thats an issue its an intentional design limit on M$'s part |
[16:02:39] | GreyFoxx: | BULLE: Music that has been imported into the database, and Recordings |
[16:02:46] | BULLE: | GreyFoxx: nice |
[16:02:48] | GreyFoxx: | svn also makes available Videos |
[16:03:13] | GreyFoxx: | I've been using upnp to stream my mythvideo stuff with all my frontends for weeks now for testing |
[16:03:26] | BULLE: | |Torg|: but the 360 can be used with a pc running mce, so i guess its as you say, an intentinal design limitation on MS part |
[16:03:47] | GreyFoxx: | |Torg|: If I get my hands on one I might be able to fix that |
[16:04:25] | BULLE: | havent ms promised some sort of dev kit for 360s, for free, or cheap, for personal use ? perhaps that could be used to get a frontend running on a 360 |
[16:04:34] | BULLE: | but it seems like a ps3 will be way easier to use as a frontend |
[16:05:09] | lotia: | does udev take over even if hotplug is instaled? |
[16:05:35] | BULLE: | lotia: well, that is distro dependent, but it seems most distros have deprecated the old hotplug stuff, and now solely rely on udev |
[16:05:58] | lotia: | BULLE: sorry wrong irc channel. thanks for the response though |
[16:05:59] | |Torg|: | ok GreyFoxx no it does not work on the 360, it works on the dlink and on XBMC |
[16:06:15] | |Torg|: | the 360 has software to only connect to its own microsfot systems tho |
[16:06:36] | |Torg|: | it would not suprise me one bit if M$ decided to "enhance" the standard UPNP and break it |
[16:06:47] | BULLE: | lotia: oh well, its common enough that people have problems with hotplug, udev, and ivtv, so it does pop up here now and then |
[16:07:24] | GreyFoxx: | |Torg|: Ok, thanks. I'll have to see if I can get my hands on a 360 |
[16:07:27] | Dibblah (Dibblah!n=Dibblah@62-31-52-100.cable.ubr02.dund.blueyonder.co.uk) has quit (Read error: 113 (No route to host)) | |
[16:07:47] | GreyFoxx: | I have the windows upnp server on my work laptop so I can use that to see what we do differently |
[16:07:58] | lotia: | BULLE: as a matter of fact i probably will. something on my gentoo box cause hotplug to be installed and i also have a recent udev. now my dvb modules are loading before ivtv and a lotof the docs out there say that ivtv should load first. worked fine with udev |
[16:08:20] | |Torg|: | GreyFoxx I suspect ther eis nothing wrong with teh code and everything wrong with the 360 |
[16:08:31] | BULLE: | lotia: last time i used gentoo and ivtv and mythv, gentoo had broken hotplug, and i had to alter some of the hotplug scripts, this was like 6 months ago though |
[16:08:32] | |Torg|: | it works fine all all my other upnp aware systems, just not the 360 |
[16:09:02] | lotia: | BULLE: worked beautifully last night. but i hadn't rebooted after hotplug was installed. |
[16:09:16] | BULLE: | lotia: do you even need hotplug ? |
[16:09:31] | GreyFoxx: | |Torg|: heh |
[16:09:39] | BULLE: | lotia: from what i understood, custom udev rules should replace hotplug |
[16:09:40] | lotia: | BULLE: no, but some install scripts think its needed and so they install it |
[16:09:42] | GreyFoxx: | Does it not see the server at all? Or just not the files ? |
[16:10:05] | |Torg|: | the server |
[16:10:07] | GreyFoxx: | k |
[16:10:13] | GreyFoxx: | odd |
[16:10:20] | |Torg|: | in th 360 you go to play media and if its not connected it does a search |
[16:10:36] | |Torg|: | duing that search it finds my dekstop (with the media server) but not the myth BE |
[16:11:30] | Saviq (Saviq!n=michal@83.12.67.114) has quit ("Leaving.") | |
[16:11:35] | GreyFoxx: | I would be interested in a tcpdump of the traffic to/from the 360 when it's doing that |
[16:11:40] | |Torg|: | btw since the 360 cant play video there really is no benefit (well to me) to fix it |
[16:12:06] | |Torg|: | im using a driect switched gig network |
[16:12:17] | |Torg|: | my switches dont have monitor capability |
[16:12:23] | GreyFoxx: | tcpdump for windows |
[16:12:24] | GreyFoxx: | hehe |
[16:12:38] | GreyFoxx: | same file format as the unix versions so a dump from one can be read on any |
[16:12:38] | |Torg|: | oh leme go find it and see :) |
[16:12:56] | |Torg|: | I was gona kill the server on my windows box to see if it was somehow competing |
[16:13:26] | GreyFoxx: | My laptop and my mythbackend work happily together here |
[16:13:29] | fred_basset: | or run tcpdump on the backend |
[16:13:51] | |Torg|: | well like I said the dlink and xbox work fine, just not the 360 |
[16:13:57] | GreyFoxx: | fred_basset: Sure, but that will just show me the failed connection, I really want to see what his windows box is doing that we arent |
[16:14:03] | GreyFoxx: | so in the end, a dump from both |

[16:15:04] | dev: | myth can stream to 360? |
[16:15:17] | |Torg|: | audio in theory yes |
[16:15:19] | |Torg|: | video no |

[16:15:44] | dev: | ;p |
[16:15:55] | |Torg|: | of course I know plenty of other things that can stream auio so im wondering why the 360 is so important |

[16:17:39] | dev: | video would be cool hehe |
[16:18:02] | qu0zl: | GreyFoxx, did you write the upnp server stuff? |
[16:18:04] | dev: | better chance getting the wii to do that tho, through apache or something |
[16:18:28] | BULLE: | dev: or a ps3 |
[16:18:40] | dev: | sony can lick my ass |
[16:18:42] | qu0zl: | do you know if there are any imminent plans for a upnp client mode supprot in mythfrontend, or is that way down the list of priorities? |
[16:18:52] | |Torg|: | ok so I cnt kil the windows media connect, wonderfull |
[16:18:56] | dev: | since they got lik-sang shutdown i hate them :) |
[16:19:07] | |Torg|: | GreyFoxx what is it you want me to setup tcpdump on the windwos box? |
[16:20:25] | wireddd (wireddd!n=wired@66-188-72-233.dhcp.athn.ga.charter.com) has quit (Remote closed the connection) | |
[16:20:36] | BULLE: | dev: ye, im no big fan of sony, but if you want to hurt them, buy a ps3, they sell those with a loss, and run linux on it |
[16:20:42] | BULLE: | dev: then you make them bleed |
[16:21:05] | fred_basset: | that won't hurt them, it pays em money |
[16:21:22] | dev: | and it gives them another tick in the ps3 sold category |
[16:21:27] | dev: | dont by one, and they lose more money |
[16:21:37] | dev: | buy |
[16:21:46] | lotia: | folks does stuff in modules.autoload get inserted before the udev hotplug? |
[16:22:22] | |Torg|: | ok GreyFoxx I got windimp (I think tcpdump for windows) the damn thing attempts to cnnect to my dialup adapter (which I dont use). Wana give some pointers here so I can provide you with data :) |
[16:22:35] | Juski (Juski!n=Juski@spc2-salf1-0-0-cust442.bagu.broadband.ntl.com) has joined #mythtv-users | |
[16:23:06] | Juski: | oh yeah. my backend has crashed again. 2nd time this week. system halted, garbage onscreen. dammit |
[16:23:09] | |Torg|: | I agree dev I own an xbox and a xbox360 specifically because I hate M$ less then Sony |
[16:23:27] | fred_basset: | Juski: this the stable or the svn? |
[16:23:37] | Juski: | stable |
[16:23:39] | dev: | ive ordered so much crap from lik-sang in the past... when i heard sony sued them into shutting down i was real freaking pissed |
[16:23:41] | fred_basset: | eek |
[16:24:04] | Juski: | hdd LED was stuck on |
[16:24:05] | dev: | i have an xbox360 and wii, i could easily buy a ps3 but sony burned that bridge with me. will never, ever, buy a sony product unless they come to my house and blow me or something |
[16:24:07] | mkrufky: | it happens to me too — i had to disable EIT program data updates to avoid the backend crash |
[16:24:22] | mkrufky: | brb |
[16:24:36] | Juski: | this is an actual _hang_ not a crash |
[16:24:42] | |Torg|: | mkrufky I run the lastest svn on my BE and run EIT just fine |
[16:24:44] | fred_basset: | sure it wasn't the kernel? |
[16:24:45] | dev: | im usually an anti-ms guy.. but they did it right with the xb360 |
[16:24:46] | lotia: | folks any guides on add OTA channels from hd tuners to myth. the channel editor details are a little sparse on the wiki |
[16:25:01] | Juski: | fred_basset: not sure of anything – except I'm sure it wasn't mythtv's fault :) |
[16:25:04] | lotia: | do i need to add the detected channels to my zap2it lineup or is that not needed? |
[16:25:22] | Juski: | maybe the hdd is going |
[16:25:40] | |Torg|: | lotia add your xmltv source, then do a mythfilldatabase --do-chanel-updates, then go into the setup and scan in what your OTA can see. Then merge the two datasources |
[16:25:49] | Juski: | think I'll back it up tomorrow. can't do it tonight.. too many recordings scheduled |
[16:26:09] | |Torg|: | the issue with zap2it is it calls the channels differnt names then the channels call themselves |
[16:26:21] | |Torg|: | so what you scan can not be corelatd to what zap2it calls them |
[16:26:55] | lotia: | |Torg|: but isn't that why the xmltv id is what matters? |
[16:27:11] | lotia: | |Torg|: and how does one merge the two datasources? |
[16:27:20] | BULLE: | dev: i will never support ms, by buying a 360, but i consider buying a wii, to play zelda and metroid |
[16:27:30] | Juski: | hahaha a personal email asking for help with mythtv was correctly identified as SPAM |
[16:27:43] | fred_basset: | hehe! |
[16:27:50] | fred_basset is now known as stuarta | |
[16:28:01] | ** stuarta welcomes reality back ** | |
[16:28:28] | Juski: | can't remember what the guy's name is.. steve something. too late – deleted already |
[16:28:48] | Juski: | oh damn he might've been offerring to pay for help since it was a personal email |
[16:29:00] | Juski: | ah well – never mind |
[16:29:04] | |Torg|: | Juski I want your blootube to be greeentube, fix it :P |
[16:29:15] | dev: | wii is cool, but xb360 is a better overall console. and almost enterely because of xbox live and the multiplayer functionality in their games |
[16:29:18] | Juski: | |Torg|: bring out the GIMP :) |
[16:29:38] | ** stuarta thinks about wandering to the chillout area to test them both out. ** | |
[16:29:43] | |Torg|: | Juski I was catlyy really thinkgin of doing that but o grey not blue |
[16:29:48] | BULLE: | dev: there is only one single game i want to play on the 360, and that is gears of war, and as it doesnt work as a video player, for mythv, i see no use for it =) |
[16:29:50] | fryfrog: | anyone play around with nagios? |
[16:30:01] | ** stuarta memememe! ** | |
[16:30:07] | Juski: | |Torg|: just take the backgrounds & remove the saturation then |
[16:30:10] | ** stuarta me me me. ** | |
[16:30:15] | Juski: | me – I'm fucking sick of grey |
[16:30:18] | dev: | BULLE: gears' multiplayer functionality is better than single player hehe |
[16:30:22] | stuarta: | fryfrog: what you wanna know? |
[16:30:26] | fryfrog: | stuarta: i am just playing around with it on my home network |
[16:30:27] | |Torg|: | yea Juski I was just waiting for you to finish before I went and plagerized it |
[16:30:33] | BULLE: | stuarta: does nagios contain rrdtool graphing modules ? |
[16:30:33] | fryfrog: | do you use yours to monitor myth in any way? |
[16:30:39] | Juski: | |Torg|: it's all done bar the shouting |
[16:30:53] | stuarta: | BULLE: there's an add on, but so far I use cacti for graphs. |
[16:30:55] | |Torg|: | 1.3 is "final" ? |
[16:31:05] | Juski: | but I forgot to mention it's released under the JPL |
[16:31:20] | Juski: | JPL == you can download it but I ignore complaints about how it looks |
[16:31:21] | BULLE: | stuarta: i was looking at cacti, but i thought it would be a bit annoying to run both cacti and nagios |
[16:31:24] | fryfrog: | Jet Propulsion Labratories? |
[16:31:33] | |Torg|: | haha Im not gona realease the updates its just for me |
[16:31:37] | mkrufky: | |Torg|: im using whatever they have in atrpms ... im too chicken to run svn version on my production box |
[16:31:39] | Juski: | Juski's Pestilence Limitation |
[16:31:46] | |Torg|: | I like greytones over bright one call me dark I just like it |
[16:32:08] | Juski: | I thought mono was a bad thing to have anyway :-P |
[16:32:26] | stuarta: | fryfrog: I use a bit of homegrown rrdtool to monitor my backend memory consumption. |
[16:32:39] | fryfrog: | ah |
[16:32:55] | fryfrog: | i *just* started playing around with it, so i've only got very basic stuff going |
[16:32:55] | stuarta: | pretty simple really... |
[16:33:11] | fryfrog: | was hoping to find a good tutorial on setting up some service monitors |
[16:33:15] | fryfrog: | for like apache, mysql, etc |
[16:33:17] | fryfrog: | nfs |
[16:33:30] | Juski: | wonder if the logs will be illuminating.. lemme see here |
[16:34:06] | stuarta: | fryfrog: nagios has plugins already written to monitor most of that.... |
[16:34:18] | fryfrog: | yeah, i think i see them in the libexec dir |
[16:34:25] | stuarta: | yup that's them |
[16:34:27] | fryfrog: | just... need to setup a service definition, i guess |
[16:35:06] | stuarta: | command check definition first |
[16:35:15] | fryfrog: | ah |
[16:35:25] | stuarta: | look at fruity |
[16:35:35] | stuarta: | nice web interface for configuring it. |
[16:35:40] | fryfrog: | okay |
[16:35:51] | stuarta: | it's on sourceforge |
[16:35:56] | fryfrog: | found it :) |
[16:36:46] | Juski: | 11:56:57 localhost kernel: [4661118.876000] cx88[0]/2: [d3f97da0/0] cx8802_buf_queue – first active and then at the same time, irssi closed the connection to the channel. nifty |
[16:36:57] | seth|laptop: | when you upgrade to a new version of mythtv, do you need to re-run mythtv-setup, or can you just run mythfilldatabse? |
[16:37:10] | Juski: | so in a way it's connected to EIT. bugger |
[16:37:35] | stuarta: | seth|laptop: no, startup the backend and it'll do any upgrades needed |
[16:37:44] | stuarta: | Juski: how rude. |
[16:38:00] | Juski: | oh wait.. 11:56 in the channel log wouldn't have been the same time |
[16:38:50] | Juski: | last thing in my log was still 15:45:32 localhost kernel: [4674836.037000] cx88[0]/2: [d3f97da0/0] cx8802_buf_queue – first active, before the reboot I mean |
[16:39:04] | Juski: | hrm |
[16:39:04] | stuarta: | iirc i get them all the time... |
[16:39:17] | Juski: | maybe my hdd power connector is still loose |
[16:39:34] | Juski: | time for a new PSU |
[16:39:49] | Juski: | this time a brand new one, not a hand-me-down from a guy ay work |
[16:39:50] | stuarta: | checked. i get those cx88 errors often. it's no drama. |
[16:40:08] | stuarta: | do some smart tests on your drive? |
[16:40:18] | Juski: | I daren't – not before doing a backup |
[16:40:22] | |Torg|: | run smartd |
[16:40:34] | Juski: | last time I did I lost the drive just after it failed a selftest |
[16:40:35] | stuarta: | you can query it to find out what it knows |
[16:40:39] | Juski: | already done |
[16:40:46] | Juski: | it's 'ok' according to smartctl |
[16:40:49] | seth|laptop: | well I upgraded to svn this morning, and I scheduled a test recording from my pvr card, and only a "B" shows up in the recorded shows portion of mythweb, however using the dvb card, the recording shows up right away, and then starts commflagging |
[16:40:50] | |Torg|: | wait it failed a self test? |
[16:40:54] | Juski: | no |
[16:41:08] | |Torg|: | seth B? |
[16:41:23] | Juski: | I mean last time a drive failed a smart test it died before I got anything off it, and it was worky before the test ;) |
[16:41:32] | stuarta: | seth|laptop: sounds like an empty recording |
[16:41:49] | seth|laptop: | Yes instead of blahMB's it shows a "B" |
[16:41:55] | Juski: | I'm NOT gonna go thru the rigmarole of getting these tuners happily cohabiting in ubuntu again |
[16:41:59] | |Torg|: | ahh its a did not tune issue |
[16:42:16] | stuarta: | yup |
[16:42:22] | |Torg|: | I got that a few times, make sure nothing else is using that |
[16:42:34] | |Torg|: | you can use live tv to see if the tuners really can, well tune |
[16:42:50] | |Torg|: | a few times I had to wipe out my dvb cards defs, and redo them |
[16:42:50] | seth|laptop: | so perhaps my channel_change script didn't complete. I wonder if the stinking dish is on a "press select to continue screen" |
[16:43:14] | |Torg|: | no B menas it got noting, not even 30 mins of press slect to continue |
[16:44:09] | |Torg|: | GreyFoxx what was it you wanted me to dump? I dont know how to use windump it dosnt have an eth0 or eri0 :P |
[16:45:37] | Juski: | god I wish these stupid HDD power connectors had been deprecated ages ago |
[16:45:51] | Juski: | I might even treat the box to a brand new hdd & go sata |
[16:46:15] | |Torg|: | umm Juski they wer, back with UW Scsi disks |
[16:46:29] | Juski: | back it up, adjust fstab, robert's ya dad's bro |
[16:46:50] | |Torg|: | that power connecter has been depricated for abotu 10 years, it need to me replaced, not epricated |
[16:47:07] | Juski: | |Torg|: PATA HDDs have had these stupid flimsy connectors |
[16:47:28] | Juski: | it'd be fine if all the PSU makers used AMP or Molex crimps instead of the cheap Taiwan shite |
[16:47:56] | |Torg|: | Id like them to standardise on something more the lins of scsi or sata |
[16:48:00] | Juski: | seen issues at work where the diameter of the crimp socket was like 0.01mm too slack causing problems |
[16:48:27] | Juski: | the kind of current they can carry is totally unneccessary for today's HDDs |
[16:48:40] | |Torg|: | rember Juski, im a SAN enginner. Internal disks to me are for booting, thats all. |
[16:48:53] | Juski: | a standard 3.5" HDD would be fine with the kind of connectors used on floppy drives |
[16:49:02] | |Torg|: | I just wish disks didnt make so much damn heat |
[16:49:08] | seth|laptop: | is there a way to view the top command output from webmin? |
[16:49:26] | |Torg|: | dunno what webmin is, or id tell you :) |
[16:49:33] | seth|laptop: | :-) |
[16:49:45] | Dibblah_: | 8w over the 3.5" form factor ain't bad. |
[16:49:56] | ** stuarta suggests using ssh not webmin ** | |
[16:49:56] | |Torg|: | you have an adversion to ssh or something seth? |
[16:49:58] | Dibblah_ is now known as Dibblah | |
[16:50:09] | seth|laptop: | no, the firewall guy does |
[16:50:16] | Juski: | blah |
[16:50:17] | stuarta: | bah! |
[16:50:21] | Juski: | just find an open port |
[16:50:22] | stuarta: | alternate ports! |
[16:50:26] | Juski: | I found 2 at work :) |
[16:50:32] | |Torg|: | run ssh over an html proxy, it works fine |
[16:50:37] | seth|laptop: | oh I can get out just fine, he just sends out hate mail when I do' |
[16:50:57] | ** stuarta raises the middle finger ** | |
[16:50:59] | Juski: | infact I'm thinking of putting a music streaming server on one of the ports |
[16:51:10] | Juski: | so I can listen to my tunes at work :) |

[16:54:27] | stuarta is now known as fred_basset | |
[16:54:29] | Beirdo: | one of my wife's coworkers had a Black Lab female that had a litter of puppies |
[16:54:29] | dev: | good fix'ns |
[16:54:36] | Beirdo: | and then got hit by a car |
[16:54:38] | Beirdo: | :( |
[16:54:41] | fred_basset: | :( |

[16:55:07] | Beirdo: | today |
[16:55:07] | Beirdo: | heh |
[16:55:10] | |Torg|: | the coworker or the lab? |

[16:55:41] | Beirdo: | I wanted a Golden Retriever, but hell, a free Lab will do |
[16:55:42] | |Torg|: | labs are great as long as their not purebread |
[16:55:42] | stuarta: | now if you can just train it to do the housework.... |
[16:55:43] | BULLE: | black/brown or white/yellowish ? |

[16:56:59] | seth|laptop: | its not the ssh connection the firewall guy sees, its the connection to an outward, non pacourts ip address. |
[16:57:03] | |Torg|: | if wed quit raising pets according to how they look the dogs and people would be allot better off |
[16:57:14] | |Torg|: | its purebreding of dogs that screw them up |
[16:57:24] | Beirdo: | we don't know what the father of the puppies was. |
[16:57:25] | Beirdo: | heh |
[16:57:33] | Juski: | I'm more in favour of breeding humans pure tbh |
[16:57:38] | Beirdo: | presumably a dog, but past that, no clue |
[16:57:42] | Dibblah: | Bah. Purebreeds are OK. |
[16:57:47] | |Torg|: | seth does he track web traffic too, port 80 to an unknown ip? |
[16:57:50] | Beirdo: | depends on the breeder |
[16:57:51] | Dibblah: | Stupid crossbreeds are not. |
[16:57:51] | Juski: | but since that's fairly controversial I'll STFU ;) |
[16:58:04] | Dibblah: | Who the ... thought up a labradoodle? |

[16:58:27] | Beirdo: | that's the most unfortunate looking dog ever |
[16:58:31] | |Torg|: | seth make sure your channels defs for it are still good too |
[16:58:32] | BULLE: | Juski: trying to "breed" "pure" humans is basicly useless, due to the huge generation time |
[16:58:59] | Beirdo: | Lab/Spaniel mixes look cute though :) |
[16:59:07] | Juski: | ok then – just the short option of castratiing chavs instead |

[16:59:24] | Juski: | |
[16:59:34] | |Torg|: | our whole idea of purebread dogs came about with our eugenics rhetric of the late 1800's and early 1900's |
[16:59:44] | Juski: | btw I heard some news about the guy who was going down my street kicking car mirrors off, yesterday |
[16:59:45] | |Torg|: | its the same idea that got Natzi Germany started |
[16:59:49] | Juski: | he's dead |

[17:00:28] | |Torg|: | prebreading is what casues problems like hip dysplasia in labs |
[17:00:43] | Juski: | Dibblah: too much effort to take em down now |

[17:03:05] | Ediehow: | are there plans for that? |
[17:03:07] | Juski: | mythburn is still available in knoppmyth AFAIK though |
[17:03:13] | Dibblah: | Yeah, but the question of HOW springs to mind. |
[17:03:19] | Juski: | Ediehow: no, not until somebody writes it |
[17:03:22] | Ediehow: | k |
[17:03:33] | Ediehow: | Juski: what is the best way to remove some commercials before i mytharchive to dvd? |
[17:03:40] | Juski: | edit them |
[17:03:41] | Ediehow: | or the best way to achieve that |
[17:03:50] | Ediehow: | so i go to the file itself in playback and set the markers? |
[17:03:54] | Juski: | edit, then losses transcode |
[17:04:00] | Juski: | lossless transcode |
[17:04:02] | |Torg|: | Dibblah you may be thinking of a toy poodle, poddles are actualy quite big |
[17:04:04] | Beirdo: | How? A full-size poodle's compatible in size to a German Shepherd. Just not the miniature poodles. They are for making Shih-Poos, etc. |
[17:04:08] | Ediehow: | which i choose in mytharchive, right? |
[17:04:33] | Juski: | Ediehow: or you could RTFM on mytharchive instead of bugging me about it |
[17:04:33] | |Torg|: | a chihudane mye be a bit of a streth tho |
[17:04:41] | Ediehow: | Juski: what's your problem? |
[17:04:41] | Beirdo: | haha. |
[17:04:48] | Beirdo: | poor chihuahua |
[17:05:07] | BULLE: | big poodles, are pretty darn big, larger then a golden retriever or a lab |
[17:05:08] | Juski: | my problem is people who can't be bothered to read docs |
[17:05:16] | |Torg|: | hey it could be lucky chuiui depdns on who the father is :)_ |
[17:05:37] | |Torg|: | Juski I told you I'm illiterate :P |
[17:05:38] | Ediehow: | Juski: i do read docs, i just didn't know the most efficient way for that, i didn't know if some people found it easier to do it separately or not |
[17:05:39] | Ediehow: | sheesh |
[17:05:45] | Juski: | anyway somebody here has to be the resident bastard |
[17:06:01] | Beirdo: | yeah, I've been too busy to be a true bastard lately |
[17:06:06] | Ediehow: | i just remember using nuvexport and i had to do everything seperately |
[17:06:17] | |Torg|: | I cn help be a bastard. I'm pretty good at it |
[17:06:22] | Beirdo: | Dibblah, http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/sheltidoodle.htm |
[17:06:32] | Dibblah: | Yeah, I know. |
[17:06:36] | Juski: | Ediehow: last thing I'll say about it is that you can do it however you want. mark the cutpoints with 'edit recording' in the OSD or by pressing E |
[17:06:44] | Beirdo: | I happen to like Shelties. That is just sad though. |
[17:06:52] | Juski: | and there's an option in mytharchive to use the cutlist, which you would know if you'd even looked at it |
[17:07:04] | Ediehow: | Juski: yeah, i wasn't asking about that, but OK |
[17:07:04] | Beirdo: | especially when you go to the breeder pages and see pics of ones with poodle cuts. |
[17:07:06] | Ediehow: | thanks anyway |
[17:07:23] | |Torg|: | Ediehow play the recording, but E andn then Z to import the auto detect, edit with the spacebar and page up and down, exit that, then transcode it |
[17:07:59] | |Torg|: | cutting your dogs hair to some sort of buaty standard is assanine |
[17:08:16] | Beirdo: | aye, and makes the dog look stupid and pitiful |
[17:08:55] | Ediehow: | |Torg|: do you recommend the mythtranscode option? |
[17:09:03] | Ediehow: | in mytharchive? |
[17:09:57] | BULLE: | Beirdo: haha, pretty funny, i used their web interface to find out what type of dog would suite me, i got 3 hits, one of them being a swedish vallhund |
[17:10:06] | BULLE: | pretty funny, if you live in sweden |
[17:10:21] | Beirdo: | hehe |
[17:10:30] | Beirdo: | I'm sure you can get them elsewhere |
[17:10:42] | |Torg|: | Ediehow I dont transcode at all, but if you want to it can decrease the size of the recordings |
[17:10:53] | Beirdo: | Ooooh, you *are* in Sweden. :) I get it |
[17:11:05] | fryfrog: | thanks for the fruity suggestions :) |

[17:21:42] | |Torg|: | can you/do you do HD? |
[17:21:56] | |Torg|: | I want HD from sat, but thye lock there god damn boxes content tight |
[17:21:59] | seth|laptop: | I do HD with air2pc cards, 2 rev. 2 different card |
[17:22:35] | seth|laptop: | i looked at the dish network hd lineup, I am not impressed. |
[17:22:44] | seth|laptop: | I get better stuff free to air, hehe |
[17:23:14] | |Torg|: | I got teh same ATSC cards as you, im pretty much in the same opinion too |
[17:23:30] | |Torg|: | but about half my channels I cant get becase they brodcast in the other direction |
[17:23:39] | |Torg|: | so out of 16 channels I can get 5 |
[17:24:33] | seth|laptop: | i noticed something interesting kast night. a 2hr show on pbshd without commercials, is only slightly larger than a 1 hour show with commercails, ie heros @ 7.2GB and Space from pbshd @7.9GB but twice the run time, damnable commercials, hehe |
[17:25:11] | seth|laptop: | I use 2 antennai, one for abc and cbs, and 1 for nbc,fox, and pbs |
[17:25:36] | crweb: | your antennai allow you to choose channels? |
[17:25:39] | |Torg|: | my PBS bcasts at 720P while the rest do at 1080I that may account for some differnce |

[17:27:56] | Ediehow: | torg i always seem to get the last few seconds of the show |
[17:28:01] | Ediehow: | despite trying to cut till the end |
[17:28:05] | |Torg|: | all tv sations in the US over 15KW MUST brodcast in ATSC |
[17:28:07] | seth|laptop: | and I am pretty remote, I live like 2000miles past where jesus lost his sandles, hehe |
[17:28:19] | Ediehow: | like, say i want to cut from 1:59 to 2:00 |
[17:28:31] | Ediehow: | and the show is only 2 hrs long |
[17:28:37] | |Torg|: | I live where you "can't get TV" |
[17:28:39] | Ediehow: | it cuts from 1:59 to like 1:59.58 |

[17:29:06] | |Torg|: | then of course if you hav ever seem my name is earl you have meet my neighbors :P |

[17:29:38] | crweb: | we use dish for local also |
[17:30:01] | crweb: | so, stations that have a * next to DTV are HD? |
[17:30:03] | |Torg|: | then crweb il bet you can also get ATSC |
[17:30:04] | seth|laptop: | and my hd antennas are only like 12" x 14" square, so they laughed at me as they sat their with their big 12 footers on thier roofs |
[17:30:17] | |Torg|: | on what crweb ? |

[17:31:00] | crweb: | well, it has all our channels listed |
[17:31:03] | crweb: | yes |
[17:31:04] | crweb: | the colors |
[17:31:22] | |Torg|: | they are a "antennas for dummies" way of decrining antenna types |
[17:31:47] | |Torg|: | they corespind to liner gain, full wave and directional vs onmi antennae |
[17:32:06] | crweb: | hmm.. FOX is in HD and only 28 miles away |
[17:32:18] | crweb: | our cable company just dropped fox |
[17:32:22] | |Torg|: | its easier to say go get a viloet antenna then get a directionsl with preamp |
[17:32:22] | fryfrog: | wtf? |
[17:32:30] | fryfrog: | how can a cable company *drop* fox? |
[17:32:43] | crweb: | fryfrog: cause KBSI was trying to rape them |
[17:32:52] | Pitr: | happens often, around here as well |
[17:33:02] | |Torg|: | crweb BE CAREFULL with antennaweb, it knows nothing about directions bcasts, hills, or obsticles |
[17:33:12] | fryfrog: | damn, i'd be pissed at my cable company if they dropped 1 of the big 5 or 6 networks |
[17:33:13] | crweb: | fryfrog: they wanted 2.5 million more than any other station is getting |
[17:33:20] | Ediehow: | man cut points are sure hard to manage |
[17:33:29] | |Torg|: | according to antennaweb I should be able to get twice the chanenls I can |
[17:33:40] | fryfrog: | at least i can't think of any good shows on fox :) |
[17:33:45] | |Torg|: | even some of the statsion bcast on the same exact physcal tower |
[17:33:46] | crweb: | so.. I have to have a different antenna for each? |
[17:34:00] | |Torg|: | no, not unless the directions all differ |
[17:34:03] | crweb: | fryfrog: umm.. family guy, american dad, etc.. |
[17:34:07] | fryfrog: | nah, only if they are *vastly* different directions |
[17:34:13] | fryfrog: | oh, poop family guy is on fox? |
[17:34:18] | Beirdo: | Simpsons |
[17:34:21] | Beirdo: | :) |
[17:34:31] | fryfrog: | i stand corrected :) |
[17:34:37] | |Torg|: | depnds on distance to the tower but as much as 30 degrees can be ok still |
[17:34:45] | Beirdo: | I'm sure the rest is utter shite though |
[17:34:51] | crweb: | so, 220,223,357,111 |
[17:35:10] | |Torg|: | teh 111 you will need another antraa as you will for 357 |
[17:35:12] | Ediehow: | i am hitting enter on a cut point to remove it, and it says insert a new cut point? |
[17:35:25] | fryfrog: | you aren't on the point then |
[17:35:30] | crweb: | no wonder over the air HD hasn't caught on |
[17:35:34] | topping_ (topping_!n=topping@207.47.6.182.static.nextweb.net) has quit () | |
[17:35:39] | fryfrog: | hit down a bunch of times till you are at the "cut point" option, then use left/right to get onto it |
[17:35:40] | |Torg|: | Ediehow you can remove, move or insert a cutpoint, its on the menu |
[17:35:41] | Ediehow: | the cut point is 6 minutes long |
[17:35:58] | fryfrog: | no, that is two cut points |
[17:36:01] | fryfrog: | 6 minutes apart |
[17:36:10] | |Torg|: | crweb HD hsnt cought on becase the recivers are too expensive and wally world dont sell it |
[17:36:17] | Ediehow: | i mena, right now, if i start the program, it goes to 6 minutes |
[17:36:37] | |Torg|: | Ediehow there are two tupes of cutpoints too, pay attention to which way they point |
[17:36:38] | crweb: | if i have to have 3 antennas, thats just annoying |
[17:36:42] | Ediehow: | k |
[17:36:46] | crweb: | i'll just keep my HD cable. |
[17:36:48] | mkrufky: | crweb: who says OTA HD hasnt caught on? |
[17:37:03] | crweb: | mkrufky: well.. there are 2 channels in my area |
[17:37:07] | |Torg|: | crweb what is on 111 and 357 that you want to see that isnt on 220 and 223? |
[17:37:09] | fryfrog: | crweb: if they are all pretty close, you *might* get them with rabbit ears or omni mode |
[17:37:14] | mkrufky: | maybe cuz anybody than is willing to buy an HDTV in the first place probably already subscribes to cable/ satellite |
[17:37:41] | fryfrog: | er, omni-directional |
[17:37:49] | Ediehow: | ah poop, it's doing the same thing as before |
[17:37:58] | Ediehow: | inserting the first split second then going on |
[17:38:14] | Ediehow: | as in, it plays 0.00 to 0.01 then skips to 2 minutes where i ended the cutpoint |
[17:38:25] | mkrufky: | fryfrog: fox has a ton of great shows — it's fox NEWS that we want to stay away from (damned republicans) |
[17:38:29] | |Torg|: | crweb two of my channels, the ones that have perfect signal (yea right) are withing 25 miles of me. I could use a coat hanger and still get them |
[17:38:54] | |Torg|: | to get HD tv you dont necessarily need highly tehcnical large dishes and antenna |
[17:39:06] | |Torg|: | some of it works with plain ol rabbit ears (depdns on how far you are away) |
[17:39:17] | |Torg|: | the tehcnology we use for anteanna is about 100 yers old |
[17:39:19] | crweb: | great, just what we need, a blue, red antenna, and a coat hanger on my tv ;) |
[17:39:26] | |Torg|: | its about as LOW tech as you can get |
[17:39:39] | |Torg|: | how far are you fromt eh towers? |
[17:39:42] | ** Pitr wonders why he never hears any non-tech people rejoice the existence of HD-TV :-) ** | |

[17:40:01] | |Torg|: | Pitr go talk to my nighbors, my kids and my wife |
[17:40:04] | crweb: | |Torg|: they are all less than 30 |
[17:40:17] | |Torg|: | crweb what color is it telling you? |
[17:40:23] | Ediehow: | if i insert a cut point near end or beginning |
[17:40:26] | crweb: | red, green, and blue |
[17:40:31] | Ediehow: | and put "delete before" or "delete after" |
[17:40:34] | Pitr: | Torg, any more? :) |
[17:40:39] | Ediehow: | myth still plays that split second at the end |
[17:40:50] | crweb: | Pitr: i have hd cable, but I'd like FOX still |
[17:41:01] | |Torg|: | crweb aside from the green all the rest are directioan antennae |
[17:41:19] | crweb: | ow wait |
[17:41:26] | |Torg|: | btw if you have digntial cable the best youc an hope for is firewire out |
[17:41:27] | crweb: | red, blue, gree, yellow |
[17:41:33] | |Torg|: | you still need that ir blaster kludge |

[17:41:51] | crweb: | I have my HD cable working |
[17:41:57] | mkrufky: | me too |
[17:42:15] | |Torg|: | yes mkrufky you are 100% correct, out of the 100 or so channels we have on digital cable TWO are NOT encrypted |
[17:42:23] | mkrufky: | oh, that sucks |
[17:42:24] | |Torg|: | the stupid fucks even encrypt the local stations |
[17:42:24] | seth|laptop: | ack, phfeh, pay for HD |
[17:42:35] | mkrufky: | i have 30 unencrypted channels |
[17:42:47] | seth|laptop: | in HD? |
[17:42:49] | crweb: | most of ours are unencrypted. stupid fucks just don't know how to do it. |
[17:42:50] | mkrufky: | oh wait... 30 channels that provide a channel name .... |
[17:43:02] | mkrufky: | i have approx 200 unencrypted channels in total |
[17:43:11] | mkrufky: | but most of those are those audio only channels |
[17:43:12] | |Torg|: | the cabel company charging me to use their DVR and the SAT comapny ginv me shit signal and nickle and dime pricing is WHY I made myth boxes |
[17:43:18] | mkrufky: | with the music videos, etc |
[17:43:30] | |Torg|: | its when I realised 90% of what I watch I can get via the airwaves |
[17:43:42] | |Torg|: | the bestest part of my solution is my monthly subscrition fee |
[17:43:50] | seth|laptop: | ack, there is only ine channel for music videos, The Tube Network, and its free to air in HD |

[17:46:11] | mkrufky: | i dont |

[17:46:41] | seth|laptop: | 43_2 |
[17:46:45] | seth|laptop: | from Fox |
[17:46:46] | mkrufky: | here they broadcast it in 480i |
[17:46:49] | |Torg|: | I get it in ATSC too, but its SD inside HD (or so the lineup tells me) |
[17:46:58] | |Torg|: | in actuality I get no signal at all, its bast with FOX |
[17:47:07] | |Torg|: | I cant get FOX or CW |

[17:47:51] | |Torg|: | abc comes in at over 100% signal |
[17:48:03] | |Torg|: | I have a digital amp on it that confuses the signal meter on my cards |
[17:48:04] | mkrufky: | hehe that telemundo building — im looking at it right now across the street |
[17:48:45] | seth|laptop: | how do those work |Torg|, I was thinking about getting a signal amp |
[17:48:51] | |Torg|: | telemundo is the only station here that bcasts omni at over 100Mw |
[17:49:04] | kinch: | I'm trying to change the GUI height and width in the Setup/Appearance. The fields contain 0 atm. I activate the field, the insertion curson appears, but I am not able to enter any new value. A myth bug ? |
[17:49:15] | |Torg|: | well for a few of my channels seth, most ntoable NBC without it I get a marjional signal |
[17:49:17] | mkrufky: | seth|laptop: get a drop amp — so you can amplify while also splitting the signal to more than one receiver |
[17:49:23] | |Torg|: | so it seems to work pretty well |
[17:49:25] | mkrufky: | there's a REAL cheap one on ebay |
[17:49:34] | seth|laptop: | drop amp? |
[17:49:39] | mkrufky: | i'll get a link, brb |
[17:50:04] | kinch: | oh, I just noticed that left and right arrow work. they increment and decrement the values. odd |

[17:52:16] | |Torg|: | Ediehow what is your question? |
[17:52:22] | Ediehow: | i don't get it, why do i tell it to delete after cut point but it still includes split second at the end of the file? |
[17:52:43] | |Torg|: | look at them, look at the direcion the point |
[17:53:19] | mkrufky: | seth|laptop: this is the one i bought — it works wonder: |
[17:53:22] | mkrufky: | wonders: |
[17:53:22] | |Torg|: | a start here, start here, end here will look like one continuous cut with a cutpoint in the middle doing nothing |
[17:53:23] | Ediehow: | well, it says "delete after this cut point"' |

[17:55:15] | |Torg|: | the only diff I can see between the two is the one mkrufky has more outputs |
[17:55:54] | |Torg|: | btw you dont have bi-directional ATSC, so you ont need retrun path |
[17:56:10] | |Torg|: | altho it would be nice for people with cable modems |
[17:56:55] | mkrufky: | yeah they're basically the same thing |
[17:57:25] | |Torg|: | seth like mkrufky said tho they make a BIG difference |
[17:57:26] | mkrufky: | here's another of the same design with only 4 outputs: |
[17:57:33] | |Torg|: | I would have channels pixilate and lock in and out |

[17:57:39] | |Torg|: | with it they are solid |
[17:58:05] | mkrufky: | without this drop-amp, my mythbackend was basically useless |
[17:58:28] | |Torg|: | hmm I wonder if I got that second one I could get those stations at night that I know I can see but cant use |
[17:58:48] | |Torg|: | my azap channel conf is full of [0003] [0004] etc |
[17:59:23] | |Torg|: | there is a definitive part about you cant amp what aint ther, and the more you amp signal the more you amp noise too |

[18:12:16] | |Torg|: | ports on what? |
[18:15:11] | |Torg|: | you could amp an rf signal infinatly (in theory) and it wont burn anything. The only thing it will do is make it too stong for your AGC to lock onto |
[18:15:30] | mkrufky: | yeah, i think it's safe |
[18:15:30] | |Torg|: | you *CAN* overamp the signal, but you wont "burn out" antthing |
[18:15:50] | mkrufky: | but better to buy a larger drop-amp than daisy-chaining them |

[18:17:02] | |Torg|: | you need to tell the differnce between signal and trash (thats your SNR) |
[18:17:10] | |Torg|: | but you need signal to begin with (thats the AGC) |
[18:17:26] | |Torg|: | so make a signal too weak, too strong and your AGC cant lock, no signal |
[18:17:43] | |Torg|: | make the signal string, but the SNR to low, you can lock but cant differntiate, no signal |
[18:18:03] | |Torg|: | you can play a bit in there with your AGC helping, which is why you want a drop amp and not a liniar one |

[18:32:13] | |Torg|: | it shows up as /dev/dvb/adapter0 and /dev/dvb/adapter1 |
[18:32:29] | |Torg|: | Ediehow I dont archive them so I dont know |
[18:32:49] | |Torg|: | I simply cutlist them for commericals and watch them, when I am done I delte them (well let them get deleted) |
[18:33:05] | Ediehow: | anyone know if there are more dvd menu themes you can download? |
[18:33:36] | seth|laptop: | I have yet to try mytharchive |

[18:37:13] | seth|laptop: | that file is an on-screen display theme |
[18:37:23] | seth|laptop: | I do not believe they would work in mytharchive |

[18:39:21] | seth|laptop: | Ediehow: unfortunatley no I do not |
[18:39:32] | seth|laptop: | Mine only has the 3 it came with |
[18:39:44] | Ediehow: | hmm, they go in /usr/share/mythtv/mytharchive/themes |
[18:39:45] | Ediehow: | let's see |
[18:39:45] | Juski: | there are only the ones that come with it AFAIK |
[18:39:52] | Ediehow: | Juski: oh ok |
[18:40:07] | Juski: | there'll be one or two on my to-do list soonish |
[18:40:25] | Juski: | there is no escape from my themes! |
[18:40:33] | Juski: | muhahahahahahaha |
[18:40:56] | Juski: | but I need to make some new intros first |
[18:41:33] | seth|laptop: | how do you use the intros? |
[18:41:43] | ille (ille!n=ille@pdpc/supporter/student/ille) has joined #mythtv-users | |
[18:42:07] | Juski: | you choose the intro you want in mytharchive |
[18:42:23] | seth|laptop: | oh, I guess I might have to try to use that this weekend |
[18:42:25] | Juski: | the intro is the video that plays when you first play the dvd |
[18:42:37] | seth|laptop: | I really should start srchiving these infernal boobah episodes |
[18:42:40] | seth|laptop: | ;-) |
[18:42:52] | Juski: | and choobar |
[18:42:55] | Juski: | and foobar |
[18:42:57] | Juski: | ;) |
[18:43:13] | Ediehow: | Juski: errr |
[18:43:18] | Ediehow: | i am wondering about encoder profile |
[18:43:52] | Ediehow: | the file sizes are 3.35g, 1.12g and 1.06g |
[18:43:52] | Juski: | why do you always ask me? I honestly don't know all the answers ya know |
[18:43:59] | Ediehow: | does that mean i need to do LP profile? |
[18:44:30] | Juski: | I think you choose one, then see how much space it'd take up |
[18:44:57] | Juski: | but there's also an option to squash everything to fit on the disc anyway |
[18:45:13] | Ediehow: | ohhhhh |
[18:45:15] | Juski: | I'm fairly sure there's a manual in the wiki |
[18:45:17] | Ediehow: | i have the option to "don't reencode" |
[18:45:26] | Ediehow: | if i choose that, iti says uhh |
[18:45:54] | Ediehow: | ah POOP |
[18:46:50] | Ediehow: | is "encoder profile" for the entire dvd, or each file? |
[18:47:47] | Ediehow: | btw, that's not in the wiki;) |
[18:47:58] | lotia: | |Torg|: so vlc and mplayer see them and mythbackend doesn't? |
[18:48:09] | Ediehow: | yes, apparently it is |
[18:48:27] | |Torg|: | no mythbackend vlc and mythbackend all see them |
[18:48:31] | |Torg|: | as does azap |
[18:48:56] | |Torg|: | I tell the BE not to lock them so I *could* use them otherwise (mostly for azap) but I dont use them in mplayer or vlc |
[18:50:37] | lotia: | so stuff works for you then? i was confused when you made that commend. |
[18:50:42] | lotia: | comment that is |
[18:51:26] | |Torg|: | yes it works |
[18:51:42] | Ediehow: | uhh juski |
[18:51:48] | Ediehow: | the log viewer is showing nothing |
[18:52:03] | seth|laptop: | hit the key to refresh it |
[18:52:09] | seth|laptop: | or wait 5 seconds |
[18:52:09] | Ediehow: | i did |
[18:52:10] | Ediehow: | nothing happens |
[18:52:13] | Ediehow: | nothing is showing at all |

[18:53:51] | Defend: | lol |
[18:54:05] | |Torg|: | hve I tested my xbox with XBMC as a frontend, yes |
[18:54:16] | |Torg|: | did it work, well for music yes, for vieo I record HD and it cant play it |
[18:54:28] | |Torg|: | do I use it, no. It was just a "lets see if this works" thing |
[18:54:44] | Defend: | does it do myth video and mythtv ? |
[18:55:05] | Ediehow: | seth|laptop: is log viewer supposed to be showing something? |
[18:55:10] | |Torg|: | if the recordings are in SD yes |
[18:55:11] | Ediehow: | can i do ps auxw and see if whatever is running? |
[18:55:23] | Defend: | i am just asking cause i see xbmc or myth on linux install |
[18:55:40] | Defend: | SD ? |
[18:55:45] | seth|laptop: | it should show the stage in which mytharchive is at, but I never really tried it :-( |

[18:56:52] | |Torg|: | you can tell your xbox to play AC3 but with an analog connector it wont work |
[18:56:55] | levander: | I'm looking at a web page where a guy plugged a Comcast cable signal into a pcHDTV 3000. I thought those pcHDTV cards were only good for catching over-the-air HDTV signals. You can use them to view HDTV from your cable company also? |
[18:57:01] | |Torg|: | I could tell my xbox to play 1080I but it cant |
[18:57:13] | |Torg|: | I record in HDTV format, an xbox cant play HDTV |
[18:57:21] | psofa (psofa!n=psofa@ppp89-237.adsl.forthnet.gr) has quit ("Leaving") | |
[18:57:34] | |Torg|: | so aside from the fact I have two ATSC only DVB cards, the xbox works fine ;) |
[18:57:49] | Defend: | hehe |
[18:57:50] | mkrufky: | levander: yes |
[18:57:59] | Defend: | so i will take that as a yes for me |
[18:58:00] | Defend: | :) |
[18:58:01] | mkrufky: | levander: pcHDTV is not the only one though — there are others as well |
[18:58:06] | Defend: | i dont have hd so i am good |
[18:58:15] | levander: | mkrufky: i thought the HDTV was encrypted? |
[18:58:28] | Defend: | i was just woundering if it know how to use the myth video plugin |
[18:58:29] | mkrufky: | levander: on digital cable, some is encrypted, some is not |
[18:58:30] | Ediehow: | seth|laptop: if i do exit as opposed to cancel, what will that do? |
[18:58:45] | seth|laptop: | well it should continue to run in the background |
[18:58:46] | mkrufky: | levander: usually the pay channels (hbo, etc) are encrypted |
[18:58:57] | Ediehow: | seth|laptop: right, can i determine that through ps auxw? what am i looking for |
[18:59:09] | levander: | mkrufky: and, for those channels, you need to hook your myth box up to a cable box? |
[18:59:11] | mkrufky: | levander: the channels that you would normally see in HD over FTA are also available on digital cable systems unencrypted |
[18:59:15] | mkrufky: | levander: no |
[18:59:26] | mkrufky: | levander: i hook it directly from the way to my machine |
[18:59:29] | mkrufky: | waLL |
[18:59:47] | levander: | mkrufky: i meant you need to hook your myth box up to a cable box for encrypted channels, is that right? |
[19:00:08] | seth|laptop: | Ediehow: ps -ef should show something in relation to mytharchive, or ranscode or something, I have never tried it, so I am unsure |
[19:00:08] | mkrufky: | yes |
[19:00:12] | mkrufky: | levander: yes |
[19:00:34] | mkrufky: | levander: here is a matrix of supported ATSC cards.... you want it to work with QAM if you want to use digital cable |
[19:00:35] | mkrufky: | http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/ATSC_cards |
[19:00:35] | levander: | mkrufky: thanks, it's like no matter how much i read, there's always something new |
[19:00:40] | levander: | myth isn't for novices |
[19:00:57] | mkrufky: | levander: also, there are a few more devices that I will be releasing drivers for in the next month |
[19:01:00] | ** seth|laptop upgrades his webmin, so I can admin LVM from a browser ** | |
[19:01:23] | levander: | mkrufky: okay, great |
[19:01:43] | levander: | mkrufky: i think i'm staying away from HDTV for this first myth box build |
[19:01:46] | mkrufky: | in case anybody is curious, the OnAir Creator is supported now.... im just having this wierd power-cycle bug... i will release that driver as soon as i solve it |
[19:02:10] | levander: | mkrufky: i haven't subscribed to it from my cable company, and the processor on this box isn't fast enough to decode HDTV anyway |
[19:02:50] | mkrufky: | i use an Athlon XP 3200+ for my frontend box. ... but it also worked before i upgraded the cpu from an Athlon XP 2000+ |

[19:03:06] | mkrufky: | cpu overheats :-( |
[19:03:13] | levander: | mkrufky: this is a dual pIII 550 box, SDTV only for it i think |
[19:03:19] | ** mkrufky needs to invest in a new cooling system ** | |
[19:03:31] | mkrufky: | levander: yeah that would work fine with sdtv |
[19:03:53] | levander: | mkrufky: you've tried myth, hooking it up via firewire to a cable box? |
[19:03:59] | lotia: | is udev also going to replace the pcmcia package at some point? |
[19:04:01] | ** |Torg| made a dual ATSC tuner BE and a seperate FE as his first mythtv project ** | |
[19:04:19] | mkrufky: | levander: i have not tried the firewire thing yet ... i will try it soon though |
[19:04:45] | levander: | mkrufky: yeah, i'm not doing that right away either, but imagine i will want to upgrade into something like that before too long |
[19:05:12] | levander: | I am worried that this dual pIII 550 box only has an ATA33 controller on the motherboard |
[19:05:23] | levander: | I'm not sure it's going to be fast enough to drive the Firewire connection |
[19:05:30] | mkrufky: | main reason why i havent done it yet is because i am already recording WAAAAY too many tv shows as it is |
[19:05:45] | stuarta: | levander: sata cards are cheap |
[19:06:02] | levander: | or, rather I meant the PCI 1.0 controller on the motherboard – to plug the Firewire card into the motherboard |
[19:06:12] | mkrufky: | im considering to buy a SATA card so that i can use 4 SATA drives instead of just 2 like i have now |
[19:06:15] | levander: | stuarta: but, they don't make the motherboard any faster |
[19:06:18] | mkrufky: | 800GB just isnt enough anymore |
[19:06:23] | seth|laptop: | ??? |
[19:06:27] | |Torg|: | ??? |
[19:06:35] | mkrufky: | hehe i never erase after i watch |
[19:06:45] | stuarta: | yeah but a dual pIII box has plenty of cpu for bit banging |
[19:06:46] | mkrufky: | cuz my friends come over and want to see shows they missed |
[19:07:09] | |Torg|: | I have a 160G ide disk I reocrd ATSC HD bcasts on |
[19:07:18] | |Torg|: | each recoding is ~7G per hour |
[19:07:33] | |Torg|: | on my disk is at least the last 3 weeks of TV I reocrded |
[19:07:39] | |Torg|: | how in the hell is 800G too little? |
[19:08:09] | mkrufky: | hehehe |
[19:08:29] | mkrufky: | its all based on the user |
[19:08:35] | mkrufky: | apparantly i am a crazy nutjob |
[19:08:38] | GreyFoxx: | and number of users |
[19:08:41] | mkrufky: | and i keep all these shows archived |
[19:08:44] | mkrufky: | yes – -good point |
[19:08:44] | lose_the_grim: | Newegg SATA2 drives $149 |
[19:08:49] | lose_the_grim: | 500g |
[19:08:56] | lose_the_grim: | *00t* |
[19:09:05] | GreyFoxx: | 3 myth users, 5 frontends in my house. Betwen music, videos and recordings we are always 800+G |
[19:09:08] | mkrufky: | i have 2 400GB drives ... im going to save up to buy 4 750's and a new sata card |
[19:09:29] | opello: | wd re2s for always-on-ness? |

[19:09:42] | Ediehow: | seth|laptop: i do ps auxw |grep myth and i only see mythbackend |
[19:09:45] | opello: | :) they're good drives |
[19:09:49] | Ediehow: | does that mean mytharchive failed? |
[19:09:53] | mkrufky: | most reliable ive seen yet |
[19:09:58] | opello: | yup |
[19:10:01] | |Torg|: | and when I want to store mp3s or video on my BE I will, right now I smb mount it from my windows boxes |
[19:10:11] | |Torg|: | so 160G is pruly for HD recording |
[19:10:34] | mkrufky: | i have an IDE drive for that stuff |
[19:10:46] | mkrufky: | i use the SATA LVM for recordings strictly |
[19:10:47] | |Torg|: | GreyFoxx did you ever give me the specs on what you wanted from the tcpdump? |
[19:10:59] | GreyFoxx: | between DVD rips of my daughtes movies, her recordings, my wife and I's stuff and my archived stuff it takes up a lot of space :) |

[19:12:02] | GreyFoxx: | heh |
[19:12:06] | GreyFoxx: | How many does it hold ? |
[19:12:50] | GreyFoxx: | a few months ago I was looking for something like that (preferably something I can hook to a pc) and could only find old cdjukeboxes |
[19:13:14] | |Torg|: | 100, I want the 600 disk version :) |
[19:13:15] | Ediehow: | i had to create the dirs, seth |
[19:13:26] | janneg: | mkrufky: svn trunk supports mutiple recording dirs. no lvm needed |
[19:13:29] | GreyFoxx: | |Torg|: Is it a DVD player or something you can connect to a PC ? |
[19:13:40] | lose_the_grim: | Does a mythTv box with a DVD drive make a good DVD Player? |

[19:13:53] | |Torg|: | you connect it to the sorruind sound and the tv |
[19:13:56] | |Torg|: | it is in fact my dvd player |
[19:13:56] | GreyFoxx: | ahhh ok |
[19:14:01] | GreyFoxx: | I use to have a 5 disk changer |
[19:14:08] | janneg: | yes, committed this week |
[19:14:12] | GreyFoxx: | but I'd rather a 100+ disk changing drive |
[19:14:22] | |Torg|: | mines old, I paid someing obnoxius for it a few years back |
[19:14:24] | mkrufky: | janneg: but i use lvm for the sake of speed — unfortunately i have a fake raid bios .. one of those sil controllers |
[19:14:31] | Juski: | whee. burning dvds is so easy in umbongo |
[19:14:50] | mkrufky: | janneg: any idea when that new feature will be pushed to a release version? |

[19:15:13] | mkrufky: | hot |
[19:15:13] | GreyFoxx: | exactly :) |
[19:15:14] | mkrufky: | :-D |
[19:15:18] | GreyFoxx: | whenever that is :) |
[19:15:26] | janneg: | no, nothing heard about a new release date |
[19:15:37] | Juski: | oh hell ffs don't start them off |

[19:16:09] | Juski: | :) |
[19:16:17] | mkrufky: | s/ad/add |
[19:16:28] | janneg: | and 70–80MB/s is fast enough for mythtv |
[19:16:40] | Juski: | some clueless bints have assembled a bounty team which AFAIK is coming to nothing |
[19:17:00] | Juski: | wow that sounded angry. sorry |
[19:17:19] | mkrufky: | Juski: was that an answer to me? |
[19:17:20] | stuarta: | i still can't be arsed implementing it |
[19:17:24] | janneg: | and osp.fi offered to sponsor that feature |
[19:17:29] | mkrufky: | ah, sounds like it |
[19:17:32] | Juski: | mkrufky: yeah |

[19:19:29] | Ediehow: | ihave everything in /myth/store, where is it reading /mnt/store from? |
[19:19:34] | mkrufky: | imagine the idea of just keeping one frontend tuned to a frequency at all times... and simply start/stop recording a pid here and there |

[19:21:29] | |Torg|: | you told it to store the vieo there |
[19:21:35] | Ediehow: | in what setting? |
[19:21:37] | Ediehow: | where do i change that |
[19:21:37] | |Torg|: | or to be more precise, you never changed the default |
[19:21:50] | |Torg|: | with mythtv-setup, its the BE settings |
[19:21:58] | ** Juski warms up the cluebat ** | |

[19:22:49] | Juski: | like a towel, a frood should always know where his recordings are |
[19:22:52] | Ediehow: | nope, i did mythtv-setup and it has directory to hold recordings as /myth/store |
[19:22:54] | Ediehow: | not /mnt/store |
[19:23:08] | Juski: | bet you didnt restart mythbackend when you changed it |
[19:23:10] | Ediehow: | mytharchive expected them in /mnt/store |
[19:23:14] | Ediehow: | Juski: it's been that way for months |
[19:23:18] | Ediehow: | in /myth/store |
[19:23:22] | Ediehow: | all my stuff is stored there |
[19:23:36] | Juski: | do ls /myth/store |
[19:23:44] | Ediehow: | all my stuff is in there |
[19:23:53] | Ediehow: | you don't want that in here |
[19:24:03] | Ediehow: | mytharchive FOUND my recordings in /myth/store, apparently |
[19:24:08] | Ediehow: | but when i tried to burn them, it looked to /mnt/store |
[19:24:18] | Juski: | where is the temp dir set to? |
[19:24:39] | Ediehow: | in mytharchive? |
[19:25:14] | Ediehow: | /myth/tmp, it just bugged out earlier because i had not created /myth/tmp |
[19:26:13] | Ediehow: | some setting somewhere is pointing to /mnt/store |

[20:32:47] | Dibblah: | |Torg|: The problem is, since I was missing the posix USE flag, PHP was compiled without POSIX support. |
[20:33:10] | Dibblah: | apache2 is there because I have apache2 installed, not from a real choice :) |
[20:33:47] | |Torg|: | ahh ok you compiled your own php, god damn need to run it on windows |
[20:34:02] | Dibblah: | Ummm... This is Gentoo. |
[20:34:08] | |Torg|: | persoannly I think it shoul include posix by default and if you run it on windows complain its not there |
[20:34:12] | Dibblah: | So yes, I compiled my own everything. |
[20:34:25] | Chicago: | Dibblah: It is easy enough on gentoo to switch to apache1... if you want to.... in your /etc/portage/package.mask... add >=net-www/apache-2 >=www-apache/mod_perl-2 |
[20:34:32] | |Torg|: | no no the "option" to not include it is so you can run it on non posix computers (read dos and windows) |
[20:34:46] | |Torg|: | Gentoo, from linux is posix (well mostly) compliant |
[20:35:13] | Dibblah: | Of course it's POSIX compliant. |
[20:35:25] | Dibblah: | Don't you read your kernel boot messages? ;) |
[20:36:44] | |Torg|: | I dont need to read them to know its compliant |
[20:37:32] | Dibblah: | Hmmm... That's good, since apparently I don't read my kernel boot messages. |

[20:41:26] | |Torg|: | yes microsfot is certified POSIX complient |
[20:41:34] | |Torg|: | the only Unix out there is Solaris |
[20:41:39] | |Torg|: | sound a bit flaky? |
[20:41:59] | |Torg|: | thats becase the IEEE standards were changes so those OSs fit |

[20:47:41] | Dibblah: | It's not so much that POSIX has been warped, more that POSIX.1 was useless. |
[20:47:49] | Pitr: | Dibblah: I think tv_gran_nl |

[20:58:30] | |Torg|: | I intentialy leave my VM at work and check it about once a month. If you left me a message on my work phone you dont know who I am. Everyone I work with knows my cell |
[20:58:39] | Dibblah: | Pitr: Good luck :) |
[20:58:41] | Juski: | hoo-ha! that's some regex-fu going on there |
[20:58:45] | |Torg|: | so if you leave a VM at work your cloobie and I dont wnt to talk to you anyway :P |

[21:50:13] | |Torg|: | im mostly intersted in "takes less cpu" |
[21:50:18] | Juski: | I'm still taken aback by gmail filtering that user's private email support request as spam |

[21:53:24] | Juski: | scsi cards are cheeeeep |
[21:53:39] | antiPo5ix: | simple question: (juski listen up :) ) I transcode video to mpeg4 and audio to mp3. The files are nuv(which I realize is nupplevideo). Is there anyway I can make make file.nuv file.avi so my divx player can play it? nuvexport seems to want to re-encode my video |
[21:53:45] | seth|laptop: | my buddy just sold me an A5200 with 7 36G drives for $50 |

[21:55:01] | |Torg|: | Juski, why does everyone ask you questions directly :P |

[22:04:06] | Juski: | I didn't know that :) |
[22:04:16] | xris: | antiPo5ix: because of AV sync issues |
[22:04:25] | Juski: | antiPo5ix: cos it's not in the AVI container I guess |

[22:04:41] | xris: | antiPo5ix: nuv supports per-frame sync commands, which avi does not. |

[22:06:28] | xris: | and I'm saying that the way that myth records video into nuv won't let you easily convert to avi without incurring AV sync issues. |
[22:06:31] | Juski: | and their network player could even learn to speak UPnP.. if they bothered.. problem solved :) |

[22:06:43] | xris: | if it was a simple fix, mythtv would just record in avi in the first place. |
[22:07:01] | Juski: | antiPo5ix: so really nuvexport has to take the stream apart & re-encode it as an avi |
[22:07:17] | antiPo5ix: | re-encode it using mpeg4 codec correct? |
[22:07:20] | xris: | antiPo5ix: plus the anamorphic/resolution issues. avi only supports square pixels |
[22:07:25] | xris: | antiPo5ix: if you choose, yes. |
[22:07:26] | antiPo5ix: | if it uses a lossless codec I will be dealing wioth a huge file |
[22:07:45] | xris: | antiPo5ix: have you even looked at nuvexport? |
[22:08:20] | antiPo5ix: | xris: not much, not until I figured out if it was possible to get an avi out of a nuv |
[22:08:30] | antiPo5ix: | but it seems impossible without reencoding |
[22:08:33] | xris: | it exports into about a dozen formats |

[22:08:37] | Juski: | oh crap. mytharchive is using up all my hdd space on /tmp |
[22:08:59] | Juski: | I knew I shoulda made / only 5GB |
[22:09:02] | antiPo5ix: | Juski: your using LVM? |
[22:09:07] | xris: | there was brief, but incomplete work on an nuv2avi program, but work stopped on it when the author got married and disappeared. |
[22:09:08] | Juski: | no idea |
[22:09:13] | Juski: | whatever bunty uses |
[22:09:20] | xris: | and once most people ended up with hardware recorders. |
[22:10:15] | antiPo5ix: | it seems odd, mythtv says I am transcoding to mpeg4, yet I cannot easily play the end result on my mpeg4 player(actually I have 5 mpeg4 appliances) |
[22:10:47] | Juski: | shit. I need to move /tmp to /hda3 from /hda1 |
[22:11:00] | Juski: | my home dir has over 100GB free |
[22:11:01] | xris: | antiPo5ix: difference between video condec and container format |
[22:11:05] | xris: | codec, that is |
[22:11:17] | xris: | you'd probably have the same problem with mpeg4 inside of an ogg container |
[22:11:18] | Juski: | stupid place to mount yer biggest free space, IMHO |
[22:11:37] | xris: | and probably even an mp4 container for some players. |

[22:13:44] | antiPo5ix: | so the best thing for me is to not transcode, and let nuvexport shrink my files for me before I archive them to CD |
[22:13:46] | xris: | Juski: btw, did you see janneg's patches for the cutlist spacer alignment |
[22:13:54] | Juski: | yeah I did xris |
[22:13:58] | xris: | antiPo5ix: if you're recording in mpeg, yes. |
[22:14:28] | xris: | better to just cut out commercials with the lossless encoder and then use nuvexport directly on those (before or after lossless, since nuvexport can deal with cutlists) |
[22:15:06] | xris: | Juski: how does it work for you and blootube? |

[22:22:34] | AndyCap: | ajhtiredwolf: hello. ;) |
[22:23:04] | ajhtiredwolf: | i haveth a problem with my myth tv :(, for some odd reason the audio doesnt sink up with the video, and when I try and record things, i get no audio on the recording |
[22:23:54] | Juski: | try reading the 'troubleshooting audio' section of the mythtv doc pages |
[22:24:32] | Juski: | unmute the line input on the playback side (or whatever input your tv tuner audio is plugged into) and select that channel to be recorded in the linux mixer :) |
[22:25:36] | ajhtiredwolf: | hmm |
[22:25:45] | ajhtiredwolf: | i think someone actually suggested that before |
[22:25:52] | Juski: | it should work |
[22:25:54] | ajhtiredwolf: | yeah |
[22:25:57] | ajhtiredwolf: | but the thing is |
[22:26:01] | Juski: | if mythtv is set to use the right audio device |
[22:26:04] | ajhtiredwolf: | im using kmix, and we couldnt really find that optin |
[22:26:06] | ajhtiredwolf: | option* |
[22:26:32] | Juski: | you sometimes have to edit the preferences in the linux mixer to show you all the channels |
[22:26:54] | ajhtiredwolf: | its set on show all |
[22:27:14] | Juski: | oh something I didn't have time to rant about today – was channel hopping on the radio as I drove to work today.. Xmas musak already!!!!! |
[22:27:17] | ajhtiredwolf: | as far as options go |
[22:27:29] | ajhtiredwolf: | it has output, input and switches |
[22:27:45] | ajhtiredwolf: | on the input sidfe it has a line 2 option, but no line 1 option |
[22:27:59] | ajhtiredwolf: | now when i go to output, if i ever want to mute the tv i justh ave to mute line one |
[22:28:03] | ajhtiredwolf: | so i know that it is goign thorugh line on |
[22:28:04] | Juski: | welcome to alsa hell my friend |
[22:28:04] | ajhtiredwolf: | e |
[22:28:17] | Juski: | close kmix & try alsamixer |
[22:28:40] | ajhtiredwolf: | k tis opened |
[22:28:46] | ajhtiredwolf: | and it opened within the konsole |
[22:29:37] | ajhtiredwolf: | i should also probably mention that i am using an audigy 2 card |
[22:29:46] | Juski: | you shouldn't |
[22:29:54] | Juski: | it'd make me suggest giving up all hope :-P |
[22:30:18] | ajhtiredwolf: | ah come on now i have several friends who have an audigy 2 and never had this problem :-P |
[22:30:19] | Juski: | I once helped a friend get theirs to work in windows.. never again, not ever |
[22:30:22] | ajhtiredwolf: | and have myth tv working fine |
[22:30:33] | |Torg|: | ajhtiredwolf what does aplay -l say? |
[22:30:38] | ajhtiredwolf: | in windows ive never had a single audigy 2 problem :-P |
[22:30:39] | Juski: | are they using a different distro to you? |
[22:30:41] | ajhtiredwolf: | they had a bad card |
[22:30:49] | Juski: | oh it worked eventually |
[22:31:09] | ajhtiredwolf: | |Torg|, quite allot |
[22:31:13] | ajhtiredwolf: | do you want a paste bin of it |Torg| ? |

[22:32:46] | ajhtiredwolf: | from -l alone |
[22:33:25] | ajhtiredwolf: | i dont remember the name of the tv tuner... mmm il get that, but anyway, it is looped through the audigy 2 card throug the input on the AUDIGY 2 |

[22:35:23] | |Torg|: | do you notive your efault device is set to the loop back to itself? |
[22:35:29] | |Torg|: | what you need is an asound.conf for that |
[22:35:55] | ajhtiredwolf: | alright, so how do i do that? |

[22:39:20] | ajhtiredwolf: | ... cant i do this throug hthe digital out port? |
[22:39:44] | |Torg|: | yes but that port is not the default |
[22:39:58] | Juski: | ajhtiredwolf: put it this way, if you hear sound from the tv tuner when the line input is unmuted, you're using the correct socket :) |
[22:40:00] | |Torg|: | also your mixer controls are proobly not set for it |
[22:40:26] | ajhtiredwolf: | alright, well yes i do hear sound whine line 1 isnt muted |
[22:40:35] | ajhtiredwolf: | the damn thing isnt labeled |
[22:40:41] | ajhtiredwolf: | but i can show you on a picture where it is plugged into |
[22:40:43] | ajhtiredwolf: | if that helps :-P |
[22:40:54] | |Torg|: | no I dont have one to compare |
[22:41:07] | ajhtiredwolf: | alright, well il keep looking for the documentation |
[22:41:10] | Juski: | hmm I know now why I'm always feeling so bored on friday nights. I miss doing my internet radio show |
[22:41:25] | |Torg|: | what your going to have to do is list the devices and map the phsycal dsp on the card to the ports |
[22:41:30] | |Torg|: | that is the hard part |
[22:41:45] | |Torg|: | then you create an /etc/asound.conf file |
[22:41:54] | |Torg|: | in it you will mmap the devices |
[22:42:19] | |Torg|: | if you want to use anything BUT the audio out and anything BUT 2 channel your going to have to mmap it and hwdev it |
[22:42:28] | |Torg|: | that is you must build a hardware and memory map |
[22:42:52] | |Torg|: | after that you can alias it to whatever you please but make sure you end up witha default.pcm by creating one |
[22:43:01] | |Torg|: | sound difficult? now you know why people bitch |
[22:43:04] | ajhtiredwolf: | heh |
[22:43:14] | |Torg|: | but there are plenty of places to show you how, use google |
[22:43:33] | |Torg|: | if you like I can show the conf file for mine, but my card is different |
[22:43:36] | Juski: | they ain't too hot at actually explaining the nuts & bolts of what goes on though |
[22:43:39] | ajhtiredwolf: | you really have to do all that? or is it jsut because i have an audigy 2? |
[22:43:58] | Juski: | depends on the defaults your distro uses |
[22:44:01] | |Torg|: | becase you arnt connecting a set of speakers with 2ch out the box |
[22:44:07] | Juski: | sometimes you get lucky |
[22:44:18] | |Torg|: | also check alsaconf to make sure whatever you want for an output line isnt muted |
[22:44:26] | ajhtiredwolf: | heh |
[22:44:28] | ajhtiredwolf: | honestly |
[22:44:32] | ajhtiredwolf: | tvtime works fine |

[22:45:28] | |Torg|: | here look at this http://pastebin.ca/263913 |
[22:45:53] | |Torg|: | there are three choices, dmix-analog, dmix digital, and digital hw |
[22:46:05] | |Torg|: | the first is mixed output, out the analog line |
[22:46:18] | |Torg|: | the second is no dsp, dump raw to the spdif |
[22:46:31] | |Torg|: | third is mixed digital out the spdif line |
[22:46:43] | |Torg|: | you need to know what device is analog and what is digital |
[22:46:48] | ajhtiredwolf: | its ok |Torg| i dont want to make you work on this :-P |
[22:46:48] | |Torg|: | thats the typw hw |
[22:46:53] | Juski: | |Torg|: how's that gonna help the guy record 'line1' audio input though? |
[22:46:54] | Juski: | ;) |
[22:46:58] | ajhtiredwolf: | this looks like moer than i have time for :-P |
[22:47:04] | ajhtiredwolf: | im just gonna stick with tvtime |
[22:47:06] | ajhtiredwolf: | its coo ;) |

[22:47:58] | Juski: | this is one of the reasons I wish software encoders would get dropped at some point |
[22:48:06] | |Torg|: | and Juski its how you tie the line to the efault of alsa, if you wanted that to be line 1, learn what dsp its tied to and put it in |
[22:49:24] | |Torg|: | Juski go read that pastebin, youll see what im talkgin about |

[23:08:02] | ajhtiredwolf: | this 25$ tv tuner card has better sound quality than the audigy2? |
[23:08:05] | |Torg|: | at best that audigy2 is doing nothing at all |
[23:08:12] | ajhtiredwolf: | maybe in this particular case |

[23:23:03] | trevarthan: | Hey, I'm seeing 99% CPU usage on my 0.20 mythbackend process suddenly (at idle and while recording). I just bought an xbox 360. Could the two problems be related? Is anyone else seeing this? |
[23:23:32] | no-idea: | I realise that xris , but figured I'm not the only mythtv user that wants to use mythstream. |
[23:24:52] | no-idea: | wtf are you taliking about |Torg|, I wanted to use mythstream to listen to radio stations |
[23:25:17] | xris: | no-idea: yes. just pointing out that the general policy for such things is to take them up in the discussion forum for the third party app itself. no idea why mythstream is separate from the source, though |
[23:25:22] | xris: | er, main mythtv source, that is. |

[23:29:24] | trevarthan: | is there any way to disable upnp in the mythbackend daemon? |
[23:29:53] | stuarta: | believe --disable-upnp was backported to -fixes |
[23:30:06] | GreyFoxx: | I think it's --noupnp or some such |
[23:31:00] | GreyFoxx: | trevarthan: Why disable it ? |
[23:31:06] | GreyFoxx: | having a problem ? |
[23:33:02] | trevarthan: | GreyFoxx: I think it's causing 99% CPU on my system. Everytime I turn my xbox on the CPU goes through the roof on my mythtv backend and stays through the roof until I restart it. |
[23:33:34] | GreyFoxx: | trevarthan: I fixed a bug in it a couple weeks ago that wouldcause that. I bckported it to -fixes |
[23:33:43] | GreyFoxx: | so if possible, try a newer version |
[23:34:26] | |Torg|: | umm no GreyFoxx its still there |
[23:34:38] | stuarta: | latest fixes? |
[23:35:00] | |Torg|: | yes |
[23:35:16] | GreyFoxx: | I had found a very reproducable off by one bug which would cause a spiral into 100% usage |
[23:35:21] | |Torg|: | where is the svn version stored ill tell you exactly the version |
[23:35:30] | GreyFoxx: | since I fixed it I haven't see any more spikes |
[23:35:37] | GreyFoxx: | mythbackend --version |
[23:35:55] | trevarthan: | GreyFoxx: which revision? I'm running 11626 |
[23:35:58] | GreyFoxx: | 11782 or newer needed |
[23:36:09] | |Torg|: | 11823 |
[23:36:09] | crweb: | where do you get -fixes? |
[23:36:29] | |Torg|: | Library API version: 0.20.20061113–1 |
[23:36:29] | GreyFoxx: | crweb: svn.mythtv.org to get the source |
[23:36:29] | |Torg|: | Source code version: 11823 |
[23:36:33] | GreyFoxx: | no idea about packages |
[23:36:50] | crweb: | no tars? |
[23:36:52] | GreyFoxx: | |Torg|: Does it happen everytime you use your xbox to access the upnp stuff ? |
[23:36:54] | GreyFoxx: | crweb: No |
[23:37:04] | GreyFoxx: | It's not a "released" thing |
[23:37:08] | |Torg|: | it happens when I turn on the xbox360 |
[23:37:26] | GreyFoxx: | |Torg|: Hmmmm really? Only when you turn on the 360 that you know of ? |
[23:37:34] | GreyFoxx: | Ok, that could be useful to tracking it down then |
[23:37:35] | |Torg|: | holon stil checking |
[23:37:36] | trevarthan: | GreyFoxx: I run Gentoo. 11626 is the latest ebuild. it'll be a while before I have time to make a new ebuild and test, but I might be able to do that this weekend. |
[23:37:48] | GreyFoxx: | thre might have been multiple bugs causing the same problem then |
[23:37:49] | crweb: | mythtv has built in evil checking? neat |
[23:37:51] | |Torg|: | turning it off dosnt fix it |
[23:38:47] | trevarthan: | GreyFoxx: for now we'll see if running with --noupnp is a valid workaround. Keep the wife sane and my head on it's shoulders where it belongs. I don't have anything upnp capable anyway. |
[23:38:49] | GreyFoxx: | |Torg|: Makes sense, something is causing some sort of infinite loop |
[23:39:05] | GreyFoxx: | |Torg|: Cool. I can definately use you for testing that |
[23:39:13] | GreyFoxx: | just no time for the next few hours at least :) |
[23:39:19] | |Torg|: | im gogint o try the dlink and the xbox with xbmc |
[23:39:39] | GreyFoxx: | I was able to cause it consistantly, so this must be something different |
[23:40:23] | |Torg|: | xmbc does not trigger it |
[23:41:16] | |Torg|: | in fact xbmc does not find it period |
[23:42:16] | GreyFoxx: | I'm getting a xbox with xbmc tomorrow so I can use that for testing |
[23:43:06] | |Torg|: | the dlink does not trigger it and does not see it |
[23:43:16] | GreyFoxx: | You sure it's not turned off ? |
[23:43:25] | GreyFoxx: | I used a dlink with mine with no problem |
[23:43:40] | GreyFoxx: | I should had more verbose logging to -v upnp |
[23:43:47] | |Torg|: | wait a second, leme go fix it, I forgot I robed its ehternet :) |
