[01:06:13] jams: if you don't give the link option it renames the file and updates the database
[01:06:15] wastrel: so i am supposed to be able to just dump these codes into my lircd.conf and then irsend will translate them into pulses for the LED?
[01:06:45] maek: jams: thanks. I was being stupid and not running as a user with proper perms thats what was confusing me. it was a long day at work dealing with firewalls my brain is fried.
[01:07:10] jams: no trouble
[01:07:31] maek: if I want to move some .mpg files to my storage server do I just move the .mpgs and thats that or do I need to update the db some how?
[01:08:34] mkrufky (mkrufky!n=mk@unaffiliated/mkrufky) has left #mythtv-users ()
[01:08:55] jams: you would need to update the db
[01:09:05] hads: You don't want to move the files out from underneath mythtv, it won't like that.
[01:09:12] maek: thats what I thought.
[01:09:18] maek: is there a tool for moving them?
[01:09:39] jams: maek- you can move them and just symlink them back in
[01:09:56] Beirdo: the bot and I will both be back
[01:10:11] Beirdo: right after I reboot the linode to a 2.6 kernel so NPTL is there :)
[01:10:25] maek: jams: yeah except id like to move them to another server and then access them under /video or what not.
[01:11:04] jams: maek- will /video be available to your mythbackend ?

[01:21:01] achew22: Beirdo, OOH! What did you add?
[01:21:03] Beirdo: a big one, it now should support SIGHUP for reloading
[01:21:10] Beirdo: if the signals will work

[01:21:53] wastrel: jams: thanks much

[01:23:02] Beirdo: I have now just blacklisted freenode's proxyscan
[01:23:16] Beirdo: yes, but signals with pthreads is the issue
[01:23:46] achew22: won't that get you kicked — system services tend to have the ability to do such things

[01:26:14] jams: ah
[01:26:19] achew22: Beirdo, does the bot run out of your house or do you have a server somewhere oding it?

[02:27:18] Trentster: Hey all, I have spent a couple of days tinkering with my system, I am using a leadtek dvt1000 dvb-t card digital over the air content, system is working and recording well, except the image isnt crystal clear, and the lip sync is very slightly out, and I get smear when there is fast movement on the screen, I also get stuttering for the first 5 secs when i change a channel with osd up. I have played with de-interlacing settin
[02:27:18] Trentster: gs bob 2x and xvmc and cant seem to get it right...any suggestions, you think it might be a limitation of the leadtek card? My system is a p4 3.2 HT with 1.5 gigs of ram...
[02:29:33] adante: Trentster: as its a digital signal it seems unlikely it would be a problem with the card
[02:30:54] adante: is your display a tv or monitor at the moment? if tv, what's the connection
[02:31:37] adante: and is this evident on all channels? any difference with the hd or sd streams?
[02:31:39] Trentster: adante, I am using an LCD television that has vga in, and using vga out on the nvidia 5200 card.
[02:32:42] Trentster: no it seems to do the same with hd and sd streams, except problems more noticable on HD
[02:32:56] adante: hm
[02:33:13] adante: have you tried using mplayer or xine to play the streams, and seeing if there is a difference?
[02:33:45] adante: or whatever other apps are available
[02:34:10] Trentster: i must add that I could never get xvmc to work properly, allways got stuttering when osd was up, I think at the moment its set to deinterlacing " kernel" and xvnc for the other option......

[02:35:22] adante: yeah um xvmc is very much touch and go, i suggest you avoid it for now trentster until you have things working smoothly
[02:36:11] Trentster: adante, well whats the ideal setting to use for image clarity, specially aimed at HD content, ?

[02:37:28] adante: if you don't get anything here you might be able to get some help at dtvforum.info
[02:37:52] Trentster: adante, have you come across an article that explains the pros and cons of different deinterlacing methods etc...?
[02:38:01] Trentster: ok will have a look there......
[02:38:13] Trentster: btw what do you have your deinterlacing set to?
[02:38:47] adante: Trentster: not really, i think there are some smatterings of info on the wiki and mailinglist
[02:38:52] adante: uhh let me check
[02:39:18] Trentster: thanks for the help btw
[02:41:44] adante: i'm using kernel apparently
[02:42:14] Trentster: hmmm interesting.....
[02:42:44] adante: also try fiddling with the mpeg2 decoder, i had a bit of luck with that
[02:43:06] adante: i've got to scoot to work now but i'll be back in 30–40m

[03:31:41] kiljaden: so I've been reading up on mythtv, about to take the plunge, but I wanted to ask about the ease of running it ala frontend+backend+regular desktop machine
[03:32:05] kiljaden: specifically, the desktop has 2 monitors, and I'll want to use the svideo out for going to the tv
[03:32:21] Dr_willis: I got it goingon my fileserver in the basement, with a dvi mointor and tv.
[03:32:31] kiljaden: is this something mythtv can handle itself, or do I need 2 versions of xorg.conf?
[03:32:37] Dr_willis: I got mythtv frontend set to show up on display #2 the tv by default.
[03:32:54] kiljaden: ok, but that's just with one DVI monitor hooked up?
[03:32:54] Dr_willis: I dont run 2 x sessions.. just one with xinerima/twinview going.

[03:33:39] Dr_willis: I got 1 dvi monitor and 1 tv. :) wouldent be much hardwer with 2 and a tv
[03:34:15] kiljaden: I was just pondering whether my nvidia card could actually push 2 DVI and the svid
[03:34:22] kiljaden: all at the same time
[03:34:29] Dr_willis: should be able to.
[03:34:38] Dr_willis: I got a 6800 that can
[03:34:41] kiljaden: will be fun to try anyway
[03:34:55] kiljaden: at least the drivers will be easy
[03:35:00] Dr_willis: tv output is rather low res anyway. not that big a power need.
[03:35:13] kiljaden: ok
[03:35:27] Dr_willis: you may want to use 2 X sessions running.. depending on your needs.
[03:35:44] kiljaden: one X for normal desktop and another for myth?
[03:35:52] Dr_willis: The way I got it set up. I got a 'wide' desktop. (tv on the left of the monitor) I mouse over to the left screen (tv) and can then controll mythtv.
[03:36:05] kiljaden: have you tried a remote?
[03:36:09] Dr_willis: since i also use that box as a work station. this works for me.

[03:36:12] Tanthrix: With nvidia cards you can use twinview, or just have two separate X screens which I think is the best way to go
[03:36:28] Tanthrix: Can't drag stuff across windows, so you don't have to deal with apps behaving weirdly
[03:36:29] Dr_willis: I got a remote. but dont like it.. PLUS i dont know how the remote would work with mythtv frontend not selected/active
[03:36:35] Tanthrix: (Mouse goes back and fourth though)
[03:36:52] kiljaden: I just spent 5 hours trying to get xinerama going with 2 DVIs on an ati card >< without the terrible flickering
[03:36:53] Dr_willis: Tanthrix, but what one has the input. :) i tend to use the wireless keyboard i got as a remote.
[03:36:55] Tanthrix: It's in the nvidia docs – just make two separate device, monitors, and screens.
[03:37:19] Tanthrix: Dr_willis: They both use the same mouse and keyboard.
[03:37:28] Dr_willis: plus the fact i dont have the mythtv frontend running all the time.. some times i want the whole 2 displays for my work.
[03:37:39] Dr_willis: Tanthrix, Right.. so if you hit 'm' for menu.. which one gets it.. :)
[03:37:48] kiljaden: Dr_willis: that's exactly the type of setup I'm looking to do
[03:38:02] Tanthrix: That's just a matter of focus. (So click myth, then press m, just like anything else)
[03:38:14] Tanthrix: Though it wouldn't surprise me if you could setup two keyboards and mice if you wanted to

[03:38:52] Dr_willis: But to each their own. :)
[03:39:02] Dr_willis: i got the pc upstares as the main mythtv front end.
[03:39:19] Tanthrix: Dr_willis: I didn't say two sessions. I said two screens. I mouseover as well.
[03:39:36] kiljaden: I've accidentally had 2 x sessions running simultaneously- I was able to just run the mouse from one to the other pretty freely with the screens setup
[03:39:48] Tanthrix: My mouse goes flying across my room from my monitor to my Aquos ;)
[03:39:58] Tanthrix: (And technically that's NOT referred to as twinview)
[03:40:00] kiljaden: nice :)
[03:40:01] Dr_willis: kiljaden, cant say i managed to do that. :)
[03:40:13] kiljaden: it was while trying to get the terrible ati card going
[03:40:21] kiljaden: the auto configure did some strange things
[03:40:44] Dr_willis: I have noticed that with a Monitor/TV  – if just leave the configuration for the monitor. and Unplug the monitor/plug in the tv. when you boot.. nvidia cards default to the tv.. no need to use the monitor. :)
[03:40:47] Tanthrix: Yah, having two x sessions is pointless. But separate screens is nice for myth, better than twinview / xinerama IMHO
[03:41:18] Tanthrix: Though, it does have its drawbacks as stated in those docs
[03:41:41] kiljaden: will it be an issue if I don't have a tuner card at all, will it? I want to use this box to store all our dvds (and keep them safe from the kids), but won't be doing any recording..
[03:42:06] Tanthrix: No, but in that case myth is a bit overkill for what you need.
[03:42:42] kiljaden: well, cable might come in the future, but for now it's just 2 or 3 channels on the antenna
[03:43:02] Tanthrix: Should get an ATSC card and go HD ;)
[03:43:12] Dr_willis: If ya could figure out how to make the 2nd X session run mythtv on the tv, and some how accept a 2nd keyboard, or the remote.. tha tmay be nifty. not for my needs however
[03:43:35] Dr_willis: I got cable.. they got no hd worth messing with. :(
[03:43:49] Dr_willis: what they do got they want to charge extra $$ for. so heck with them
[03:45:07] Tanthrix: I'd probably ditch my HD and DVR cable box, but I can get almost all of my channels via the firewire out which is much better quality than what my PVR-150 can do
[03:45:24] kiljaden: for some reason, I thought I read somewhere that the nvidia cards could only do 2xDVI or 1xDVI+Svid, not 2xDVI+Svid
[03:45:32] kiljaden: perhaps that's just in windows
[03:45:45] Tanthrix: You can only do two screens, period I thought

[04:22:30] Dr_willis: bummer – havent heard about that going on.
[04:24:30] GreyFoxx: Eventually something will be mentioned on mythtv.org
[04:25:35] clever: GreyFoxx: i find a good use for a frontend only build is it wont have as many depends(no need for v4l or firewire or other capture headers)
[04:26:27] GreyFoxx: still, It's unsupported, and a couple of meg at most of diskspace
[04:26:46] clever: im not realy caring about the diskspace savings
[04:27:06] clever: but the ammount of extra packages i may need to install for capture support so the backend would compile and never get used
[04:27:20] clever: may also help to port the frontend alone to other os's
[04:27:41] GreyFoxx: That's what I said the frontend only option was for. porting to other OS's
[04:27:43] clever: backend porting will be alot more work since you need to redo the capture driver interfaces
[04:28:25] GreyFoxx: but people are using it to "streamline" their machines because of some percieved savings that's pretty trivial
[04:28:36] clever: lol
[04:28:51] clever: saving disk space wont improve performance
[04:29:14] clever: im even running backends on boxes which are more of frontends:P
[04:29:27] clever: i disabled comflaging on my only box with a capture card
[04:29:33] clever: and run a backend on the laptop frontend
[04:29:45] clever: effectively turning it into a dedicated comm flaging box
[04:30:16] clever: which i beleive helps with the coruption rate of my cheap framegrabber

[04:30:48] clever: lol
[04:30:50] achew22: how do you tell the computer that your clock isn't utc but local?
[04:31:12] clever: you probly have to tell the os not the computer
[04:31:21] clever: and it would mainly depend on the distro
[04:31:27] achew22: clever, I used computer because it may be a bios fix or something
[04:31:30] achew22: gentoo
[04:31:40] clever: for my fulltime linux boxes i just set the clock to what the os thinks it is
[04:31:53] achew22: clever, I have to dualboot windows/linux windows is for work
[04:31:58] clever: the hardware clock the bios see's has no timezone setting
[04:32:13] achew22: clever, just covering my ass...
[04:32:21] clever: when linux boots it can either take that as utc and addjust to local or do it the other way arround
[04:32:28] clever: i forget what windows does
[04:32:34] clever: #gentoo might be able to help better
[04:32:37] achew22: okay
[04:32:50] clever: the clock within the linux kernel is in utc

[05:10:46] clever: it could be playback problems or recording problems
[05:11:00] clever: playing old recordings will show if its a playback problem
[05:11:05] rmoquin: clever: well, I tried every setting I could find :) I tested the audio out of the pvr350 and it works fine
[05:11:17] rmoquin: clever: no audio comes out of mythdvd
[05:11:28] clever: probly an output problem then
[05:11:35] clever: start something up in myth that makes autio
[05:11:38] clever: audio*
[05:11:40] rmoquin: clever: but output works great in x itself
[05:11:47] rmoquin: is there a difference?
[05:11:47] clever: then play with settings while mythtv is going
[05:11:58] clever: depends on what you have mythtv set to
[05:12:02] clever: and what the other progs are set to
[05:12:27] clever: my mythtv is set to use oss(/dev/dsp1) for audio on my main host
[05:13:44] rmoquin: clever: ok, I have nothing else running but mythfrontend (other than services which I haven't been playing with), so you are saying that I should play with the sound controls while myth runs?
[05:14:01] clever: yeah

[05:37:46] clever: with my setup im using an external tuner(digital cable box) which splits the audio and video into 3 seperate sets of wires(composite,left,right)
[05:38:02] clever: then i feed the audio into a sound card that is pretty much dedicated to mythtv
[05:38:07] wishie: anyone got any idea why mythtv doesnt want to talk to my VFD ?
[05:38:29] rmoquin: clever: ok.. I'll do that real quick
[05:38:31] otwin (otwin!n=opera@158.64.27.1) has joined #mythtv-users
[05:38:33] clever: the output of that card goes to the tv
[05:38:48] clever: the other card is onboard and i use for feeding audio to the desk speakers
[05:38:54] rmoquin: wishie: did it auto upload the results? since I see it mention "uploaded results"
[05:38:57] clever: /dev/dsp goes to the speakers on my desk
[05:39:10] wishie: rmoquin: it will give you a URL if it succeeded
[05:39:10] clever: /dev/dsp1 goes to my tv and also inputs from the cable box
[05:39:17] rmoquin: ah
[05:39:27] clever: both also show up in alsa but i have yet to get mythtv to use a certain alsa dev
[05:39:29] rmoquin: ohhh I see it ok
[05:39:46] rmoquin: wishie: definitely good call by you to write the script
[05:39:51] rmoquin: wishie: alsamixer -c 0
[05:39:53] rmoquin: grr
[05:40:03] wishie: heh
[05:40:06] rmoquin: wishie: try that again, http://pastebin.ca/594922
[05:40:22] wishie: rmoquin: yeah, well, saves me (and the others in #alsa) from asking the same questions 1000 times a day
[05:40:34] clever: lol:)
[05:40:56] rmoquin: wishie: yeah I can imagine :)
[05:40:58] wishie: ahh, cmi8738-mc6
[05:41:03] wishie: one of my favourites :)
[05:41:11] wishie: ive got custom .asoundrc's for that card too
[05:41:19] Honk (Honk!i=sigma@forschungslabor.dyndns.org) has joined #mythtv-users
[05:41:47] wishie: but right now, your problem is what, exactly ?
[05:41:55] clever: sound doesnt work under mythtv
[05:42:00] clever: but works elsewhere
[05:42:09] wishie: ok
[05:42:20] wishie: is mythtv setup to use 'default' or 'hw:0,0' ?
[05:42:26] wishie: or is it still set to /dev/dsp ?
[05:42:44] rmoquin: wishie: it USED to work when I first installed myth, but stopped working when I was configuring X to use my pvr350 out
[05:42:49] clever: it appears to be set to some alsa device since i saw this in one of his lsof pastes
[05:42:53] rmoquin: wishie: default
[05:43:03] rmoquin: yeah I think default goes to alsa
[05:43:08] wishie: it does
[05:43:08] clever: http://www.pastebin.ca/594914
[05:43:18] wishie: default is a link to hw:0,0 , via dmix
[05:43:27] Dagmar: Well, there was a great idea
[05:43:28] wishie: so multiple streams can play at once.
[05:43:31] clever: wishie: from that paste rmoquin made you can see its using alsa
[05:43:59] rmoquin: wishie: ahhh ..

[05:45:19] wishie: hmm, so, to try... speaker-test -c2 -Ddefault -twav
[05:45:20] wishie: works ?
[05:45:24] wishie: just to confirm
[05:45:24] rmoquin: wishie: the only thing I did related to sound after I had it working and before it stopped was checking the "audio through pvr 350 only" but have since turned it off.. was worried it got stuck on that option, but I checdked the db and it's off
[05:45:32] rmoquin: np, one sec
[05:46:15] clever: whoa
[05:46:17] clever: i ran that
[05:46:19] rmoquin: wishie: she has a sexy voice
[05:46:20] clever: left channel dead:P
[05:46:21] rmoquin: hehe
[05:46:28] clever: never noticed that before:P
[05:46:28] wishie: hah
[05:46:29] rmoquin: almost hypnotic
[05:46:50] rmoquin: wishie: but yes that works
[05:46:55] wishie: ok, so we know 'default' is working
[05:46:59] rmoquin: ok
[05:47:22] wishie: try setting mythtv to use 'dmix:0'
[05:47:26] wishie: see if that works.
[05:47:33] rmoquin: in the frontend?
[05:47:36] wishie: yeah
[05:48:06] rmoquin: clever: by the way, I notice a focus issue was causing escape to not exit the frontend btw
[05:48:09] clever: wishie: how would i set that speaker test to test only the left channel?
[05:48:16] clever: ahhh
[05:48:27] wishie: speaker-test -c1 -Ddefault -twav i think will do it
[05:48:30] clever: i get that randomly on my system with several moniters
[05:48:32] wishie: it will loop "front left"
[05:49:06] MavT (MavT!n=Maverick@111.86.233.220.exetel.com.au) has quit (Connection timed out)
[05:49:10] clever: when i ran that on a system which i know works on both
[05:49:16] rmoquin: wishie: ok, I put that for mixer device, restart the frontend or should it work without restarting?
[05:49:18] clever: i heard the word front/left comming out of both
[05:49:36] clever: but thats routed thru several linein's
[05:49:37] wishie: rmoquin: put that for the playback device.
[05:49:43] wishie: the mixer device should be 'default'
[05:49:46] rmoquin: oh ok
[05:50:00] wishie: using /dev/mixer is pointless, as thats just getting alsa's oss emulation to do extra work
[05:50:08] ** clever rewires the speakers a bit so the linux is last **
[05:50:38] rmoquin: wishie: "Audio output device"?
[05:50:39] wishie: rmoquin: on a side note.. how many speakers are connected to the card ? a 5.1 system ?
[05:50:42] wishie: rmoquin: yes
[05:50:44] rmoquin: yeah 5.1
[05:50:51] rmoquin: not using spdif though
[05:51:01] rmoquin: not normal connections in and out
[05:51:01] wishie: would you like all 6 speakers to work, instead of the 4 currently working ?
[05:51:10] rmoquin: wishie: hell yeah :)
[05:51:24] rmoquin: wishie: was afraid to even try with all the problems I keep causing
[05:51:31] clever: there
[05:51:31] wishie: we'll get that going, once sound is setup
[05:51:42] clever: now the onboard card of theP4 goes right to my desk speakers
[05:51:51] clever: clever@theP4:~$ speaker-test -c1 -Ddefault -twav
[05:51:55] clever: still comes out of both
[05:52:00] wishie: hmm
[05:52:02] rmoquin: wishie: "Audio output device"?
[05:52:10] rmoquin: is that correct for what you wanted me to change?
[05:52:17] wishie: rmoquin: try it as dmix:0 first of all, yeah
[05:52:30] rmoquin: ok, so I did that and it says I have no audio
[05:52:38] wishie: try simply dmix then
[05:52:41] rmoquin: ok
[05:52:47] wishie: perhaps myth doesnt like the :0
[05:53:09] clever: i had an imposible time trying to get myth to use the non default alsa device
[05:53:16] clever: so i just gave up and pointed it at /dev/dsp1
[05:53:20] rmoquin: error opening audio device
[05:53:24] rmoquin: (dmix)
[05:53:37] wishie: hmm
[05:53:53] ** wishie checks your script output again **
[05:53:56] rmoquin: clever: what's dsp1? I've seen dsp
[05:54:04] clever: thats the second sound card
[05:54:12] rmoquin: clever: I only have one sound card
[05:54:16] rmoquin: oh
[05:54:18] clever: dsp is the onboard card and dsp1 is the pci card
[05:54:19] rmoquin: sorry :)(
[05:54:20] clever: i think both are oss emulations
[05:54:32] wishie: they are both emulations
[05:54:37] rmoquin: I'm getting tired and answered your statement retardedly
[05:54:40] clever: also the 'acer' box has lost the ability to beep since i just rewired things:P
[05:54:50] ** clever looks to see where its going **
[05:54:52] rmoquin: clever: nice I hate those stupid beeps
[05:55:05] rmoquin: clever: windows makes me want to rip the speaker right out
[05:55:19] wishie: rmoquin: well, we can test if its something myth is doing wrong.. set the front end to use hw:0,0
[05:55:27] clever: ;p;
[05:55:29] wishie: we wont want to keep that setting, but try it for now

[05:55:48] rmoquin: wishie: ok, so that goes in the same spot as I was putting the dmix?
[05:55:59] wishie: in "Audio Output Device" yeah
[05:56:25] rmoquin: wishie: ok want to make sure I do this correctly...
[05:56:27] clever: fixed
[05:56:33] clever: had a in and out wire backwards
[05:56:34] rmoquin: wishie: error opening audio
[05:56:40] rmoquin: same error as the other ones
[05:56:42] wishie: error ? thats interesting
[05:56:45] rmoquin: for hw:0,0
[05:56:49] clever: back to my testing
[05:56:54] rmoquin: yeah says, "No such file or directory"
[05:56:56] wishie: since hw:0,0 is the actual device. straight to hw
[05:57:09] rmoquin: wishie: oh, interesting
[05:57:56] wishie: can you paste your /usr/share/alsa/cards/CMI8738-MC6.conf please, on pastebin
[05:58:04] rmoquin: wishie: sure
[05:59:05] wishie: brb
[06:00:24] wishie: doh!
[06:00:34] wishie: i think i sorted it out
[06:00:41] wishie: set it as ALSA:default
[06:00:44] rmoquin: for mine?
[06:00:46] rmoquin: ok
[06:00:49] wishie: yeah
[06:00:59] wishie: not used to having to prepend ALSA:

[06:01:20] rmoquin: yeah that should be what it was originally
[06:01:57] wishie: then we can try directly... ALSA:dmix etc etc
[06:02:02] wishie: and figure out where its going wrong
[06:02:24] rmoquin: unable to set alsa parameters
[06:03:32] clever: when i use -c1 it outputs thru both channels
[06:03:45] clever: when i use -c2 on some computers
[06:03:50] wishie: clever: odd. ill test here in a minute
[06:03:50] clever: it alternates between left and right
[06:03:51] rmoquin: wishie: in case you want it: http://pastebin.ca/594937
[06:03:55] wishie: -c is channels
[06:03:59] clever: yeah
[06:04:04] clever: when i use it on the tvout
[06:04:09] clever: even without having to walk up to it
[06:04:21] clever: i can hear it alternating between noise and no noise
[06:04:27] clever: left channel is fully dead
[06:04:33] rmoquin: wishie: in case you didn't realize it, that "unable to set alsa parameters" is what myth responded with
[06:04:42] wishie: yeah
[06:04:49] wishie: is there any more info in the console about it ?
[06:04:53] wishie: rmoquin: thats for you
[06:05:51] wishie: and this all happened since tell mythtv to use the PVR ?
[06:05:56] rmoquin: wishie: ok so I got a couple errors
[06:06:29] rmoquin: wishie: yeah, nothign else I did was even remotely related to sound, I'm a saavy programmer, I normally don't touch anything I can't reverse or that doesn't need touched :(
[06:06:32] rmoquin: er :)
[06:07:09] rmoquin: wishie: "AudioOutput Error: Rate doesn't match (request 44100Hz, got 48000Hz"
[06:07:25] rmoquin: wishie: that's after it says it's opening dmix
[06:07:41] rmoquin: wishie: then it disables it due to being unable to set the parameters
[06:07:45] wishie: ok
[06:08:03] wishie: 'dmix' isnt a 'type plug' so expects a certain sample rate/format
[06:08:19] wishie: 'default' uses 'type plug' so does automatic rate/format conversion
[06:08:20] rmoquin: wishie: I know I had to have done somethign to it but can't think what could have had this kind of side effect
[06:08:39] rmoquin: wishie: ok, makes sense :)
[06:08:57] wishie: as far as the ALSA side of things goes, if speaker-test works, then ALSA works.
[06:09:16] rmoquin: wishie: yeah I'm convinced the sound itself isn't the problem
[06:09:21] wishie: if ALSA:default isnt working, then something is screwy with myth
[06:09:38] rmoquin: wishie: I'm convinced that even though the pvr audio option is off, it's still trying to send the audio through it only
[06:09:42] wishie: you havent run alsaconf or anything ?
[06:09:51] rmoquin: wishie: I'm guessing if it was then the regular sound wouldn't work
[06:10:13] rmoquin: wishie: no, I'm using whatever the defaults for ubuntu feisty is, which is supposed to be the correct settings for myth, and was originally
[06:10:38] rmoquin: wishie: could reinstall ubuntu but would rather know what the hell is wrong with it rather than avoid the issue
[06:10:44] wishie: and you have ESD turned off in gnome (if you are using it) ?
[06:11:18] wishie: clever: so you still use the /dev/dsp settings ?
[06:11:35] clever: im using /dev/dsp1 for mythtv
[06:11:45] rmoquin: wishie: what's ESD?
[06:12:03] wishie: Enlightened Sound Daemon
[06:12:10] rmoquin: oh, never heard of it
[06:12:11] wishie: its what gnome uses by default
[06:12:23] rmoquin: never tried to do anything with it, how do I check it?
[06:12:30] wishie: it has an uncanny way of blocking the sound card, for a period of time, after its finished using it
[06:12:38] wishie: but if you havent changed it, then i doubt its the issue here
[06:12:40] rmoquin: interesting
[06:12:50] rmoquin: not purposefully :)
[06:13:15] wishie: well, gimme a minute..
[06:13:47] rmoquin: interesting, Enable software sound mixing (ESD) is checked in my sounds
[06:13:55] rmoquin: should I uncheck that?
[06:14:03] wishie: do you use system sounds etc ?
[06:14:11] wishie: you can congifure gnome to use ALSA directly anyway, i think
[06:14:14] rmoquin: they are on, but I could care less about them
[06:14:20] wishie: i know you can in KDE
[06:14:36] rmoquin: probably rather they were off, only really care about sound in myth since all my media should be through that
[06:14:50] wishie: ok
[06:15:07] wishie: get rid of ESD then, although its likely not the issue here.. unless
[06:15:09] rmoquin: so uncheck that one, and uncheck the "Play system sounds"? or does that one not matter?
[06:15:21] wishie: there is a system sound event, right before you open mythtfrontend
[06:15:26] rmoquin: oh it grays it out either way
[06:15:45] rmoquin: wishie: the start up sounds, but I don't think those have played for a while since we've been testing things
[06:16:30] rmoquin: the low res of the pvr350 is pretty irritating since you can't see much of anytthing :)
[06:16:31] wishie: http://www.wishie.net/alsa/configs/asoundrc.cmi8738-mc6 <-- by the way, thats my config to get stereo sounds on all 6 speakers on the CMI8738-MC6
[06:16:49] rmoquin: wishie: nice
[06:17:17] wishie: yeah, i just setup a nice mythtv box here, but i want the VFD working.. but yeah, full 1920x1080p display with 1920x1080i DVB signal tv
[06:17:28] clever: wishie: the onboard card i have on XP
[06:17:37] clever: wishie: can use its mic as a center+woofer output
[06:17:48] clever: wishie: and the linein can be used as a left/right rear output
[06:17:57] wishie: clever: yeah, should work that way in linux too
[06:18:03] clever: wishie: ive played with it a bit in 4 speaker mode
[06:18:04] rmoquin: wishie: that would be pretty sweet
[06:18:18] clever: but i dont plan to switch the os on that pc any time soon
[06:18:26] clever: its still running some winblows based services
[06:18:50] wishie: thankfully im now 100% linux at home
[06:19:19] rmoquin: wishie: nice, core dump when I switched back to ALSA:default :)
[06:19:21] clever: theres 3 xp boxes in my house
[06:19:25] clever: 2 that my dad has
[06:19:32] clever: and 1 on my kvm for some mirc windows running scripts
[06:19:49] wishie: rmoquin: hmm, when set to ALSA:default, mythfrontend core dumps ?
[06:20:15] wishie: clever: i have gentoo, debian, and xandros boxes at the moment..heh
[06:20:20] rmoquin: wishie: yeah never did before... but I think it's having a hard time switching to the new setting I put it on.. cause sometimes it thinks it still using dmix
[06:20:52] wishie: rmoquin: the way it works is this..
[06:21:01] rmoquin: wishie: keeps resetting itself to dmix
[06:21:13] wishie: default -> 'plug' plugin -> dmix ->hw:0,0
[06:21:18] clever: i have 3x ubuntu
[06:21:21] clever: 3x xp
[06:21:26] clever: and a linuxfromscratch
[06:21:32] clever: that are on regulary
[06:21:37] wishie: clever: oh yeah, a few ubuntu boxes, ready to sell..but i dont count them

[06:22:49] wishie: see if that helps
[06:23:03] rmoquin: wishie: guess I gotta hit enter in the field after I change params... so now I get a pic, and no sound again
[06:23:26] t3soro: does mythtv support laptop tuner cards?
[06:23:35] rmoquin: wishie: won't hurt to try.. bothers me to change all this stuff when it used to work without changing it... really dying to know what the heck happened to this
[06:23:42] wishie: if linux supports, it, then mythtv should.
[06:23:50] clever: t3soro: do you see a /dev/video* item from that card?
[06:23:57] wishie: rmoquin: well, it will allow the 6 channel sound anyway..
[06:24:06] rmoquin: wishie: def
[06:24:07] t3soro: clever: no
[06:24:20] wishie: rmoquin: ok, the asoundrc link i posted before..do you need it again ?
[06:24:39] clever: t3soro: either the drivers dont use the v4l standard,they arent loading, or they dont exist yet
[06:24:57] wishie: put it in the home dir of the user that runs mythtv, as .asoundrc
[06:25:00] t3soro: the card is a hauppauge card, but i have no idea what version it is (its branded by hp and doesnt say a model number)
[06:25:19] clever: t3soro: check the output of lspci
[06:28:32] rmoquin: wishie: I got your one with the CMI config, I copied it in, what do I have to do to try it out?
[06:28:33] t3soro: its not listed in there. i guess its not compatibvle
[06:28:51] wishie: rmoquin: as the user whose home dir its in..
[06:29:05] wishie: rmoquin: first of all, run alsamixer , and turn off '4 channel mode'

[06:31:57] wishie: save it as .asoundrc in your users home dir, OR as /etc/asound.conf
[06:32:01] rmoquin: ok

[06:38:03] wishie: but it should be coming from the other speakers aswell
[06:38:14] rmoquin: ah, ok.. nope not from the other speakers
[06:38:26] wishie: run alsa-info for me again
[06:38:58] rmoquin: http://pastebin.ca/594965
[06:39:38] wishie: ahh
[06:39:40] wishie: in alsamixer..
[06:39:50] wishie: line-in mode should be set to "rear output"
[06:39:58] rmoquin: ohhh yeah forgot about that one
[06:40:08] wishie: and mic-in mode to "Center/LFE"
[06:42:08] rmoquin: nope, and to save you the trouble, uploading my settings again :)
[06:42:30] rmoquin: http://pastebin.ca/594967
[06:42:46] rmoquin: ran both ones you gave me to ran to test
[06:44:18] wishie: hmm, and using speaker-test -c2 -Ddefault -twav as the user ryan, doesnt work ?
[06:44:28] wishie: if not, then something IS screwy with ALSA
[06:45:12] rmoquin: nope, doesn't appear to..
[06:45:24] rmoquin: just goes back and forth on the two speakers
[06:45:39] wishie: are you close to the other speakers ?
[06:45:48] rmoquin: not sure what I should do next.. don't understand why this is so screwed up
[06:45:51] rmoquin: yeah, pretty close
[06:45:59] rmoquin: closer to the back speakers than the front
[06:46:05] wishie: cause i have them set quieter than the fronts
[06:46:07] wishie: oh ok
[06:46:17] wishie: ok, as i was saying before..
[06:46:22] wishie: done a system update recently ?
[06:46:28] rmoquin: yeah
[06:46:34] wishie: there have been reported issues with alsa libs 1.0.14a
[06:46:39] rmoquin: it's possible that hosed something to
[06:46:40] rmoquin: oh really?
[06:46:49] rmoquin: hmmm that could explain a lot
[06:46:53] wishie: dpkg -l |grep ^ii |grep asound
[06:46:57] rmoquin: I know I def applied all updates
[06:47:04] rmoquin: looked innocent enough :)
[06:47:33] rmoquin: ii libasound2 1.0.13–1ubuntu5
[06:47:46] wishie: hm ok
[06:47:55] rmoquin: kinda wish it was 14
[06:48:00] wishie: cause i know the 1.0.14a release was to fix broken plugin dirs.
[06:48:07] rmoquin: ahhh
[06:48:12] wishie: ie, dmix, route, plug, etc, that we are using :)
[06:48:27] rmoquin: ah but the 14 release broke more than it fixed?
[06:48:56] rmoquin: god it's going to be fun getting up for work in the morning, but I'm so tired of this problem, dying to know what the heck is wrong with it
[06:48:59] wishie: well, the alsa-driver package was a VAST improvment.
[06:49:07] rmoquin: oh really
[06:49:09] rmoquin: ?
[06:49:10] wishie: especially for hda-intel based cards
[06:49:38] wishie: and there is no alsa-libs update for ubuntu ? odd..
[06:50:16] wishie: ill have to talk to the maintainer about that
[06:50:29] rmoquin: doesn't appear to be
[06:50:40] rmoquin: go figure there are 3 new updates now
[06:50:48] rmoquin: I just applied 2 like a couple hours ago
[06:50:50] rmoquin: wonder what they are
[06:51:09] rmoquin: all libexif stuff
[06:51:12] wishie: asking the packager now
[06:51:14] wishie: brb
[06:51:18] rmoquin: ok
[06:51:47] wishie: try this in the meantime..
[06:51:56] wishie: speaker-test -c6 -Dplug:dmix6 -twav
[06:52:16] rmoquin: ok
[06:53:17] rmoquin: ok, now it's trying to play the other speakers, but nothing comes out of them
[06:53:23] wishie: ok
[06:53:26] wishie: wiring issue ?
[06:53:54] rmoquin: nope
[06:53:56] wishie: that should be working.. that 'device' is only using the dmix plugin
[06:54:08] rmoquin: I know surround works on my xbox and all that
[06:54:13] wishie: speaker-test -c2 -Ddmix -twav
[06:55:01] wishie: wish i was at home, so i could test locally, instead of via ssh :)
[06:55:02] rmoquin: sigh, nothing seems to want to work
[06:55:10] rmoquin: heh
[06:55:11] wishie: any error with that one ?
[06:55:21] rmoquin: yeah I'm doing ssh and then listening to my speakers
[06:55:23] rmoquin: nope
[06:55:24] rmoquin: no errors
[06:55:37] wishie: and it played sound on the front 2 speakers ?
[06:55:44] rmoquin: "Playback device is dmix"
[06:55:45] rmoquin: yep
[06:55:48] wishie: ok
[06:55:51] wishie: so dmix is working
[06:55:59] rmoquin: says 2 channels
[06:56:00] wishie: the 'dmix' device uses the dmix plugin
[06:56:09] rmoquin: ok
[06:56:52] wishie: ok
[06:56:58] wishie: speaker-test -c2 -Drear -twav
[06:57:40] rmoquin: that displays front left/right but no sound
[06:57:52] samesame (samesame!n=samesame@61.7.174.243) has joined #mythtv-users
[06:57:55] wishie: hmm, that should play those sounds, but on the rear speakers.
[06:58:27] wishie: turn off IEC958 5V in alsamixer
[06:58:28] rmoquin: my amp doesn't list those speakers as available
[06:58:37] wishie: it will most likely toggle back on soon after though
[06:58:39] rmoquin: such as a stereo feed, that doesn't matter though right?
[06:58:59] wishie: your amp is only a stereo amp ?
[06:59:11] rmoquin: no it supports everything
[06:59:19] wishie: ok, and its in which mode ?
[06:59:22] rmoquin: it just thinks it's only getting a stereo signal, it shouldn't think otherwise right?
[06:59:34] wishie: oh, with that, it will be getting stereo
[06:59:52] wishie: with the -c6 -Dplug:dmix6 it should be getting analogue 6 channel though
[06:59:54] rmoquin: well it's detecting stereo, I have it in the simulated 5.1 for stereo inputs since I don't have a digital in from the mythbox
[07:00:03] rmoquin: hmm
[07:00:13] rmoquin: not sure if it will change it config for that or not
[07:00:39] wishie: can you turn off the simulated stuff on the amp for now ?
[07:00:47] wishie: you have 3 x cables from the pc to the amp though, right ?
[07:01:17] rmoquin: only 2, I have an svideo directly to my projector
[07:01:42] rmoquin: ok turned over the closest thing I have in alsa mixer, but no sound
[07:01:44] wishie: for this 6 channel to work, you need 3 x audio cables from the pc to the amp
[07:01:46] rmoquin: it just didn't have a V at the end
[07:02:06] rmoquin: 3 audio cables? where does the third one come from? I only have a left and right...
[07:02:11] rmoquin: they third is usually a video

[07:04:17] rmoquin: ohhhhh
[07:04:21] wishie: 1 carries front left/right
[07:04:23] rmoquin: you know what, I got what you are saying
[07:04:26] wishie: 2nd carries rear left/right
[07:04:31] wishie: 3rd carries center/lfe
[07:04:32] rmoquin: yeah I got a second output
[07:04:37] rmoquin: that would turn on
[07:04:39] rmoquin: duh
[07:04:41] rmoquin: I am getting tired
[07:04:43] rmoquin: stupid me
[07:04:54] rmoquin: though by turning that on, it turns off my input for myth
[07:05:32] rmoquin: I'm forgetting the extra output on the card
[07:05:45] wishie: yeah, the sound card has 3 outputs
[07:05:55] wishie: and you can toggle some of them as inputs.
[07:06:00] rmoquin: right
[07:06:03] rmoquin: now I am with you
[07:06:11] wishie: your setup is a simple PC(mythtv) -> amp ?
[07:06:26] rmoquin: I was thinking it somehow encoded it over the rcas
[07:06:31] rmoquin: yeah
[07:06:46] wishie: and the pvr passes its audio how ?
[07:06:48] rmoquin: just pvr350, looped into sound card, then sound card out to amp
[07:06:55] wishie: ahh ok
[07:07:03] rmoquin: even if the pvr was hooked up wrong
[07:07:19] rmoquin: mythdvd still doesn't output anything
[07:07:22] wishie: the PVR350 cant do that over the bus, or internally via the "CD" plug on the inside of the card ?
[07:07:36] wishie: is mythdvd set to use xine for playback ?
[07:07:56] rmoquin: I believe so
[07:08:07] rmoquin: I'm pretty sure I changed it to that a day or two ago
[07:08:08] rmoquin: I'll check
[07:08:11] wishie: ok, its got seperate sound settings, in some cases..heh
[07:08:17] rmoquin: go figure :)
[07:08:50] rmoquin: oh it's on Internal I must have turned the normal video ones to xine
[07:08:59] wishie: so yeah, that could be an issue
[07:09:02] wishie: oh, ok
[07:09:06] rmoquin: so I shoudl change this to xine then?
[07:10:01] rmoquin: I tried playing dvds straight off my hd, I think that would go through the mythvideo stuff though actually
[07:10:05] rmoquin: which is set to xine I believe
[07:10:14] rmoquin: yeah
[07:10:17] rmoquin: it is
[07:11:11] wishie: ok, and you are testing if audio is working with mythtdvd ? right ?
[07:11:18] rmoquin: starting to think I'm better of reinstalling ubuntu but worried I'll end up hitting the snag again
[07:11:38] rmoquin: actually I'mn not sure what it's going through
[07:11:49] rmoquin: I have dvds on my hard drive in dvd filesystem format
[07:12:00] wishie: rmoquin: try the mythmusic
[07:12:07] rmoquin: I'm playing those directly, those get played with mythdvd or mythvideo?
[07:12:14] wishie: so we know if its internal, or mplayer or xine etc
[07:12:15] rmoquin: ha, mythmusic freaks out when I try it
[07:12:25] rmoquin: it goes into a loop with the time
[07:12:27] wishie: play a sound file i mean :P
[07:12:46] rmoquin: it's say something like 3:06, 3:05, 3:04, 3:06, 3:05
[07:12:50] rmoquin: and no sound comes out
[07:13:02] wishie: when playing an audio file ?
[07:13:08] rmoquin: yep
[07:13:14] wishie: hmm
[07:13:29] wishie: something is certainly screwed, with myth i think
[07:13:41] wishie: you can always reinstall those packages
[07:13:49] wishie: purge them, and re-install them
[07:14:04] rmoquin: yeah that's why I'm thinking
[07:14:14] rmoquin: how do I purge them? I did a reinstall earlier which didn't help
[07:14:20] wishie: or use something like knoppmyth, if its a dedicated mythtv box
[07:14:38] wishie: apt-get remove --purge <package1> <package2> etc etc

[07:14:48] wishie: then apt-get install <package1> <package2>
[07:15:15] wishie: you could even blow the DB away, if you dont mind setting up myth again
[07:15:21] wishie: that way, you know its not a problem in there
[07:15:43] rmoquin: looks like it did the same thing as it did earlier when I removed it
[07:15:54] wishie: --purge removes the config files too
[07:15:57] rmoquin: ah
[07:16:03] wishie: apt-get remove by itself, doesnt.
[07:16:16] rmoquin: don't feel like reconfiguring it but kinda want to be safe.. I'll go in and drop the db
[07:16:25] rmoquin: wasted way too much time on this issue as it is :)
[07:16:49] rmoquin: I tout how great myth is, yet I can't get it set up again (used to have it setup and working great on this machine like 2 years ago)

[07:36:34] mattwj2005: Linux in general has a hard time to play audio using more than one program at a time
[07:36:41] wishie: any message in the console about what its complaining about ?
[07:36:45] mattwj2005: I run into that with Ubuntu on my desktop
[07:36:56] ShockValue: anyone heard any news about comcast encrypting HD in the last 24 hours? all of a sudden i cant get my hd channels to play
[07:36:57] wishie: mattwj2005: that can be fixed :)
[07:36:58] rmoquin: wishie: it says it can't set the alsa params for default
[07:37:21] mchou: ShockValue: dude, that depends on your local provider
[07:37:28] mattwj2005: oh yeah I have recently redived into Linux
[07:37:29] ShockValue: hrm
[07:37:39] rmoquin: wishie: but the sound seema ro xomw out of only my center channel
[07:37:45] mchou: ShockValue: it's not as if the whole nation goes encrypted
[07:37:50] mattwj2005: doing a nice dual boot...still can't cut my Windows ties ;9
[07:37:51] mchou: at the same time
[07:37:52] mattwj2005: :(
[07:38:01] ShockValue: well my provider is backwoods hicks, so I doubt they would just change stuff unless they had to
[07:38:19] mattwj2005: I have Comcast.....
[07:38:22] mchou: ShockValue: bullshit. They change whenever they have money
[07:38:25] rmoquin: wishie: since I can't use the 6 speakers now anyhow, should I just remove the .asoundrc and see what happens?
[07:38:26] wishie: rmoquin: the .asoundrc still in place ?
[07:38:27] mattwj2005: let me try mine for fun :)
[07:38:31] rmoquin: wishie: yeah
[07:38:36] wishie: rmoquin: remove it
[07:38:47] ShockValue: all i know is now when i tune to a HD channel, it kills the com and I have to reset the box and restart my backend
[07:39:04] mchou: kills the com?
[07:39:07] rmoquin: wishie: ok
[07:39:13] mchou: wtf does that mean?
[07:39:20] ShockValue: Broadcast: Testing...Failed
[07:39:21] ShockValue: P2P: Testing...Failed
[07:39:29] mattwj2005: nope I have channels in the clear :)
[07:39:38] wishie: rmoquin: if snd-mixer-oss is loaded, you can also try keeping the "Mixer Device" as /dev/mixer if you wish.
[07:39:45] mattwj2005: I thought legally they had to keep the OTA channels in the clear
[07:39:48] ShockValue: and it wont talk to my receiver until i reset it to a non hd channel by hand
[07:39:55] mchou: mattwj2005: they do
[07:39:56] rmoquin: wishie: rather not if it's more intensive
[07:40:11] mattwj2005: did they change the channel numbers on you?
[07:40:24] mattwj2005: they do that to me all the time :(
[07:40:31] rmoquin: wishie: hmmm now livetv isn't happy
[07:40:34] ShockValue: nah, 35 is still food (works) and 662 is still TNTHD (breaks)
[07:40:42] wishie: ive heard about you poor americans and tv networks..heh
[07:40:59] wishie: rmoquin: whats the error there ? no sound ?
[07:41:02] rmoquin: wishie: there we go.. it freaks sometimes
[07:41:08] rmoquin: wishie: louder now
[07:41:25] wishie: rmoquin: thats perhaps because of the mixer settings for the Line-In or whatever channel
[07:41:32] wishie: in alsamixer.
[07:41:36] ShockValue: ah well, guess ill have a beer and watch some SDTV. maybe it will be magically fixed in the morning
[07:41:44] rmoquin: wishie: ah... yeah seems to be coming out the center, left and right now
[07:42:10] wishie: rmoquin: because you toggled that output, remember ?
[07:42:13] rmoquin: wishie: so I think I'm good... even though it wasted a ton of time messing with it, I'm just glad it works and I can maybe squeeze 4 hours of sleep still :)
[07:42:23] wishie: haha
[07:42:26] mattwj2005: yeah the American record and movie industry are a bunch of jerks
[07:42:27] wishie: 4 hours is more than enough
[07:42:28] rmoquin: wishie: I reversed those... the 3 speakers play now which is what I expect it would do
[07:42:31] wishie: you can sleep when you're dead
[07:42:34] rmoquin: wishie: yeah
[07:42:36] rmoquin: haha
[07:42:37] rmoquin: true
[07:42:42] rmoquin: gotta do something with all that down time
[07:42:59] wishie: just hope you're having a good dream..heh
[07:43:01] rmoquin: guess I shoudl turn cathouse off and hit the sack
[07:43:05] rmoquin: haha yeah or I'll get bored
[07:43:18] rmoquin: wishie: thanks for the assistance.. I at least learned a bit about alsa
[07:43:21] wishie: mattwj2005: cancelling of shows, changing how times etc..
[07:43:31] wishie: rmoquin: there is lots more to learn, and lots of 'tricks'
[07:43:33] rmoquin: wishie: and ended up with a working system
[07:43:38] wishie: feel free to drop by #alsa if you have more issues
[07:43:50] rmoquin: wishie: yeah I'll bet... I'll def be around
[07:44:13] mattwj2005: yeah America is a little crazy but it is my home
[07:44:14] rmoquin: I know this won't be the last of the problems... gotta get the lirc stuff working
[07:44:15] mattwj2005: :)
[07:44:22] rmoquin: anyhow, catch you all later
[07:44:30] mattwj2005: I am looking forward to visiting Sweden though
[07:44:31] wishie: mattwj2005: if TV network here, acted like they do in the USA, there would be riots! heh
[07:44:42] mattwj2005: hehe

[07:45:04] mattwj2005: you guys have free OTA satellite in Europe right?
[07:45:09] wishie: i remember, downloading 'vanished' the tv show, from the states..
[07:45:21] wishie: and, wow, it certainly vanished alright
[07:45:28] wishie: got cancelled after like 4 episodes.
[07:45:39] wishie: Australia, not Austria :P
[07:45:43] mattwj2005: heh it just vanished? :P
[07:46:07] wishie: we have Pay sevices, via Satellite and Cable, and Free-To-Air analogue and digital stations
[07:46:34] mattwj2005: the free to air is on satellite though :)
[07:46:41] wishie: nah
[07:46:43] wishie: DVB
[07:46:52] mattwj2005: free DVB-S?
[07:46:53] wishie: DVB-T to be more specific
[07:46:57] mattwj2005: oh okay
[07:47:02] mattwj2005: yeah we have ATSC
[07:47:21] mattwj2005: free over the air
[07:47:24] wishie: but out Free-To-Air stuff isnt too bad
[07:47:32] wishie: i mean, we get 1080i stuff
[07:47:40] mattwj2005: that is cool
[07:47:51] wishie: its quite good at the moment too
[07:48:06] wishie: since 'HD' stations arent allowed to broadcast non-HD content
[07:48:13] wishie: and since all commercials are still in SD..
[07:48:22] mattwj2005: yeah I have basic cable right now.....
[07:48:38] mattwj2005: hehe SD commericals
[07:48:40] mattwj2005: nice
[07:48:52] wishie: they arent allowed to broadcast them on the HD channels
[07:49:07] wishie: so there is a HD "demo" that plays when the commercials are meant to be on
[07:49:25] mattwj2005: wow that is crazy :)
[07:49:38] wishie: so, now for the reason i came in here..
[07:49:47] wishie: getting myth to talk to my LCD/VFD
[07:50:04] HrdwrBoB: I laugh at people that run 1080i on 720p screens and thing it's better than 720p
[07:50:15] mattwj2005: hehe
[07:50:15] wishie: the screen works, myth is set "Enable LCD" but it doesnt work :)
[07:50:28] wishie: HrdwrBoB: i got a 1080p display :)
[07:50:41] mattwj2005: I have a 480p CRT that has a HDTV tuner
[07:50:47] mattwj2005: it works good enough
[07:50:48] mattwj2005: :)
[07:50:51] HrdwrBoB: as do I, but I realise it is excessive for 37"
[07:51:04] wishie: yeah, mine is 37" too
[07:51:09] mattwj2005: yeah this is just a 27 inch
[07:51:49] mattwj2005: yeah my apartment is kind of crazy....I live by myself....
[07:52:04] HrdwrBoB: I live in my own little world
[07:52:06] wishie: yeah, as do i.. well, me, and my cat.
[07:52:10] HrdwrBoB: surrounded by my wife and two cats
[07:52:15] mattwj2005: I have a few computers ... 27 inch CRT HDTV and an old analog tv
[07:52:27] mattwj2005: :)

[10:04:24] mat__: is there some sort of user managment for mythweb in order to protect certain recorded files from being downloaded by others?
[10:05:18] wishie: hmm, is there some alternative to MythMusic, as , it seems to be very 'clunky' compared to the rest of myth, and also, doesnt seem to match in with the theme too well
[10:05:46] juski: wishie: use a better theme then!
[10:06:10] juski: and no there's no alternative but it's been getting a lot more love recently, so improvement IS coming
[10:06:36] wishie: the theme part isnt my main concern
[10:07:01] wishie: its just that it seems alot less 'complete' compared to the rest of the plugins
[10:07:37] juski: well, mythtv like other OSS projects depends on code input from folks, and mythmusic hasn't had a whole lot of that in its life
[10:07:56] jduggan: wishie: mythmusic has always been poor, but as everyone else will say, if you want to improve it, the code is there ;)
[10:08:06] siXy: http://rapidshare.com/files/40010782/twig.tar.gz.html
[10:08:10] juski: but like I said, it's had quite a bit recently – not saying it's gonna end up radically different but it'll be improved
[10:08:34] jduggan: someone should start mythmusic2
[10:08:36] jduggan: :o
[10:08:41] siXy: jduggan: thankyou :) but rapidshare will probably do for this

[10:08:50] jduggan: maybe i should learn
[10:09:02] siXy: any testers would be appreciated :)
[10:10:32] siXy: jduggan – i made a start a while back, but the horrors of the current code and lack of time kinda forced me to scrap the project
[10:10:55] siXy: it will require a lot of time investment as it needs to be re-written from scratch really
[10:11:36] _[PUPPETS]Gonzo is now known as [PUPPETS]Gonzo
[10:11:37] juski: what I'd be tempted to do is take mythvideo & mythmusic & roll them into just 'a player' – then you could do playlisting & all manner of fancy stuff – but that'd require a boatload of changes all over the place
[10:13:18] siXy: ah i like a seperate player for music and video personally
[10:13:51] siXy: i cant imagine ever wanting a playlist containing music + video together
[10:13:53] juski: what I mean is you can still have your 'play music' and 'play video' options – just handle them the same way kinda
[10:14:04] siXy: oh yeah that would be nice
[10:14:13] juski: but then people who collect music videos could playlist a music vid
[10:14:25] siXy: ah true
[10:14:37] jduggan: thats a good idea
[10:14:39] juski: record a music channel & edit recordings into tracks.. :)

[12:34:38] sebrock: directhex|work, I dont follow, there was no need for patching on latest stable I thought?
[12:35:28] directhex|work: if you want lirc to behave even remotely properly, you want to use a packaged version. if the package is missing something and you have a patch, then apply the patch to the source package and rebuild
[12:36:08] sebrock: siXy, said no patching was needed? Sorry but Im totally lost
[12:36:28] Ruleke: how's that, you just need a kernel module and some userspace tools, nothing magical
[12:36:33] Ruleke: I've always compiled lirc from source
[12:36:48] directhex|work: Ruleke, with said tools being launched at the right point during init, and so on

[13:34:02] siXy: sebrock: run mode2 and press stuff on the pad
[13:34:41] sebrock: yeah works
[13:35:01] siXy: ah cool then you just need to modify /etc/lirc.conf
[13:35:09] sebrock: siXy, but I dont want to use it as a mouse... I want it to be used as up, down etc...
[13:35:17] sebrock: and that is included in the lircd.conf
[13:35:36] siXy: isnt there a button on the remote that switches?
[13:35:46] siXy: or is that just a trigger for the windows driver?

[13:37:45] sebrock: no its not the same code
[13:38:25] siXy: ah ok then it looks like a hardware switch, which just means you need to specify the 2 codes seperately in lirc.conf – one set for mouse one for keyboard
[13:39:34] sebrock: when I check lircd.conf there is some defined for mouse_e mouse_w _s _n
[13:39:37] siXy: (which, incedentally, is much nicer as it means you get remote mouse control)
[13:40:00] siXy: ok, so also define some for UP, DOWN, etc
[13:40:14] sebrock: ok.. hm
[13:40:28] siXy: but with the alternate codes
[13:40:46] siXy: thus you can switch between keyboard + mouse with the buton on remote
[13:41:10] sebrock: are there no ready made confs for this?

[13:50:42] wastrel: you need to restart myth after you restart lircd
[13:50:45] wastrel: at least i do

[13:51:30] snarkster: why would you ever have to recompile the kernel to use a remote..

[13:52:14] snarkster: http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-8.html
[13:52:14] snarkster: Says in some instances you need to recompile the kernel
[13:52:15] siXy: you do however need the kernel source (or at least the headers) to build kernel modules
[13:52:24] snarkster: ah
[13:52:29] sebrock: seems that its working now anyways, LCDproc too
[13:52:30] snarkster: well that part makes sense.
[13:53:30] siXy: snarkster: only time you need to recompile kernel if its built without support for some things that lirc needs. most often happens for serial remotes

[14:25:09] juski: srthsrhsrthsrth: if you're on the VGA out only, you don't get the overscan slider
[14:25:38] juski: anyway like I said – e.g. if you run X at 1024x800 try mythtv-setup --geometry 800x600
[14:26:16] juski: a size LESS than you run X at :)

[14:27:48] juski: yeah wastrel for best results, you need to run mythtv on X at 100 DPI

[14:34:34] SiD3WiNDR: my tv is connected via svideo; it's a 16:9 and if I feed it a 4:3 resolution it'll stretch it (currently 800x600 i think). Is there a recommended widescreen resolution I can set my graphics card to?
[14:34:58] juski: SiD3WiNDR: just use the DISPLAYSIZE variable in xorg.conf

[16:27:09] Dagmar: ...now *that's* a big deal.
[16:27:17] juski: so be careful out there ;)
[16:27:27] Dagmar: At least with MythMusic, it repopulates from the id3 tags with no real issues.
[16:27:40] juski: until video files can have metadata..

[16:40:28] gbee: if we ever start worrying about the security of mythtv, then I'd think we are all in trouble
[16:40:29] sebrock: when I boot it says mythbackend is starting but then I have to start it manually anyway...
[16:40:56] gbee: sebrock: something wrong with your init script then
[16:41:40] sebrock: which script should I look into?
[16:42:03] juski: /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend
[16:42:15] sebrock: hm... it will start manually
[16:42:16] SiD3WiNDR: hehe
[16:42:26] sebrock: could it be a permission thing?
[16:42:38] SiD3WiNDR: gbee: you mean things like passing invalid data into the non-protected backend port causing it to segfault? :)
[16:42:55] juski: maybe a thing mythbackend depends on.,. oh I dunno like mysql or networking hasn't started by the time mythbackend tries to run
[16:43:23] sebrock: aha
[16:43:44] gbee: SiD3WiNDR: yeah, as one example
[16:43:49] sebrock: I noticed that portmap is tryig to start a second time aswell...
[16:43:52] juski: there should be crud in the init script looking for mysql having started IIRC
[16:44:54] juski: maybe mythbackend is failing to start because (!) your recordings dir is on some NFS share that isn't getting mounted right away.. that'd bork it too
[16:44:56] gbee: we assume, and with good reason, that mythtv isn't going to be running on an unprotected network ... if you are running an unprotected network, then you've more to worry about ;)
[16:45:21] juski: I agree with you gbee – no need to make mythtv secure as such
[16:45:30] sebrock: no recordings is on the same machine
[16:45:37] gbee: sebrock: may even be that the network isn't started, so that mythbackend is unable to bind itself to the right IP/port
[16:45:42] juski: if folks are gonna be running it over VPNs or whatever that's their own lookout
[16:45:49] juski: hey look in your backend log ;)
[16:46:19] sebrock: this is the last thing and my setup will finally be finished
[16:46:23] SiD3WiNDR: gbee: somehow there was a reference to encoder 5 in my database somewhere, frontend requested status of that encoder via backend socket -> boom.
[16:46:32] SiD3WiNDR: I didn't hand-change a single thing in that database
[16:46:49] SiD3WiNDR: I removed all my tuners and re-added them, problem solved
[16:46:53] gbee: the backend init script should really run almost last in the init sequence, e.g. runlevel 5, at S95

[16:49:13] Dagmar: Theo might be a jerk, but as far as technical considerations are concerned, he's usually spot on

[16:53:10] Lunar_Lamp: I've installed mythtv on ubuntu. I plan to use a frontned to it, so understand that havint the backend ip set to "127.0.0.1" is incorrect. However, what should I set it to to avoid the error mesage? localhost?
[16:53:35] SiD3WiNDR: how about the ip address of your backend machine? :)
[16:53:44] juski: no, if you run the frontend & backend on the same machine 127.0.0.1 is fine
[16:53:56] Lunar_Lamp: juski, oh, ok, so what does the error message mean?
[16:54:03] SiD3WiNDR: oh.
[16:54:03] Lunar_Lamp: The backend is running, and the ip is correct.
[16:54:13] Dagmar: If you have networking turned off for the mysqld, 127.0.0.1 will just not work.  :)_
[16:54:24] juski: if you run the FE & BE on different machines, you must set the frontend to connect to the correct IP address of the backend
[16:54:29] Lunar_Lamp: Dagmar, ah, ok, so how do I turn it on?
[16:54:34] juski: the page in mythtv-setup tells you this
[16:54:36] Lunar_Lamp: juski, yes, ofc, that makes sense :)
[16:54:37] Dagmar: Lunar_Lamp: Look in my.cnf

[17:27:40] Lunar_Lamp: (btw, the error I had earlier seemed to be due to the backend not starting due to a dodgy path for storing recordings :-s)
[17:27:47] juski: they changed the site (MSNBC did) & that broke the screen scraping code – but that code violated the usage conditions of the site anyway
[17:28:19] Lunar_Lamp: Ah ok, so it requires a location from which to obtain the info then.
[17:28:23] GreyFoxx: Heh my wife was asking about that the other day when she was trying to see what the next day was gonna be like

[17:29:12] juski: gbee: we now have a veritable fistful of flyers :)
[17:29:26] Lunar_Lamp: gbee, I'm just checking out the MET office site to see if that's a viable replacement – they are a public body with a remit to work in best interests of the piblic, so there may be an opportunity to work there.
[17:29:27] GreyFoxx: gbee: Is that in mythweather-revamp or in trunk ?
[17:29:33] gbee: GreyFoxx: revamp

[17:30:03] gbee: Lunar_Lamp: MET office or BBC Weather are possibilities for the UK
[17:30:26] Lunar_Lamp: gbee, MET is international I think – at least it claims to be on the website.
[17:30:37] juski: might see what mythnews can do with the bbc xml feed
[17:30:38] Lunar_Lamp: Though I concede that it might not do the fine detail for non-UK places.
[17:31:30] gbee: Lunar_Lamp: doubt it provides detailed information for anywhere but the UK – might provide generalised info for world capitals but not localised stuff
[17:31:37] Lunar_Lamp: Also, that reminds me, I tried to load up a BBC news item from the info centre also – that crashed mythtv.
[17:31:59] Lunar_Lamp: gbee, yeah, that's what I suspect, though, that's possibly better for non USA people :-/

[22:57:05] atarinox: yeah i know it's not ideal, but i don't have the money right now to make a standalone box
[22:57:06] jason__: lol, true. dedicated backend is the way to go! or frontend/backend combo, cuz i can at lease exit from the frontend and the backend will still record
[22:57:23] jason__: *least
[22:57:34] jason__: but then im in ubuntu, not windows...
[22:57:56] juski: recording with the right hardware takes up very little CPU, so all you need is a big HDD in a cheap old box really
[22:58:43] immolo: jason__- ubuntu and for those hard to reach scratches use vmware
[22:58:55] atarinox: really? i thought the encoding req. some cpu power. i've got an olddddd 600 mhz p3 desktop...would that work?
[22:59:12] juski: atarinox: if you're not planning on doing much processing after recording, probably
[22:59:44] juski: maybe not for HD but definitely for standard def. TV with a hardware encoding card like the hauppauge pvr150/pvr500
[22:59:47] atarinox: hmmm...so i'd prob just need to upgrade the vid card and hd
[23:00:39] juski: and even with a faster machine you really don't wanna be mucking about with software encoding with 'A' TV card
