[00:01:06] Anduin: varun0: Check your frontend log, likely you have a bad MythVideo version.
[00:01:46] varun0: Anduin: I don't think I have frontend logging – I only see backend.log. Unless they are different locations?
[00:02:32] Anduin: varun0: There is no standard location, you can always just run mythfrontend via ssh or a terminal and look at the output, or -l to a log file.
[00:02:48] Anduin: varun0: Did you compile this manually?
[00:04:23] varun0: Anduin: nope. Ubuntu packages
[00:04:59] XLV (XLV!n=XLV@88.218.15.50) has quit ("Leaving")
[00:05:00] Anduin: varun0: hmm, much less likely to be a bad version then
[00:05:14] varun0: Anduin: oh. Well let me check the logs........see if that throws up anything
[00:05:36] Majost (Majost!i=majost@crackaddict.com) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:05:49] Kazan: question
[00:06:12] Kazan: i once tried to setup a manual recording source on the RCA (yellow/white/red) input of one of my hauppauge cards
[00:06:18] Kazan: so i could direct my VCR through my mythbox
[00:06:25] Kazan: i could never get it to switch to that input
[00:06:42] Majost: Does anyone know how to increase the maximum number of concurrent recordings for a tuner?
[00:06:56] iamben: Kazan: thats more of a short story than a question
[00:07:32] Kazan: iamben: the obvious questioning being wtf was wrongw ith it
[00:07:37] Majost: Im using trunk svn 14480 — which from what the changes indicates, the multirec stuff was folded back into trunk
[00:07:49] Majost: just trying to use it now
[00:07:51] Majost: heh
[00:08:24] Kazan: multirec?
[00:08:32] Anduin: Majost: multirec isn't in trunk yet, that was myth-vid
[00:08:50] Majost: ah
[00:08:57] ** Kazan laughs **
[00:09:01] Kazan: i forgot my SD login/password
[00:09:03] Majost: damn
[00:09:05] ** Kazan goes digging in his db **
[00:10:01] varun0: Anduin: would you mind taking a look at http://pastebin.com/d65a872cd? I think you were right – something wrong with mythvideo
[00:10:21] Kazan: woot woot the SD price reduction was retroactively applied
[00:11:08] Anduin: varun0: Yup, that would be a problem
[00:11:27] varun0: Anduin: Do you know how to fix it off the top of your head? :-)
[00:11:55] Anduin: varun0: I do not, it should never happen with packages
[00:12:02] iamben: oh sweet, they did extend SD memerships
[00:12:08] Anduin: varun0: Give me a sec to dig around
[00:12:11] iamben: and memberships, too
[00:12:19] varun0: Anduin: awesome. Thanks so much
[00:12:39] Kazan: hey anduin
[00:12:57] Kazan: any idea why i couldn't get a card with more than one input source (1 being cable, 1 being manual) to switch to the manual source
[00:15:00] Majost: Last quick question regaurding multirec — is the schema version in trunk the same as multirec presently, or will I need to roll back my DB to switch over?
[00:15:04] Anduin: varun0: Your plugins seem to be newer than your libmyth
[00:15:34] varun0: Anduin: That's really weird :-S
[00:15:42] Majost: Not sure where to find that in the source. heh
[00:16:07] Anduin: Kazan: The few times I've tried manual scheduling they have ended only in disappointment, so no not really.
[00:16:23] Anduin: varun0: Did you ever compile?
[00:16:36] varun0: Anduin: never. Just been installing from the repos
[00:16:55] varun0: Anduin: I did an apt-get upgrade which I think did it
[00:17:10] varun0: Anduin: sorry probably should have mentioned that
[00:18:15] Anduin: varun0: You may want to ldconfig, if that doesn't work track down libmyth and ensure it is from a package matching the plugins.
[00:18:32] varun0: Anduin: OK I'll give that a shot.........thanks so much
[00:21:54] Majost: its also possible the libmyth package failed to install while doing the upgrade, and you didn't notice it.
[00:21:59] ** Majost shrugs **
[00:24:45] Majost: ack schema of multirec is 1198 and trunk is 1199
[00:24:46] Majost: hah
[00:24:53] iamben: im still having trouble starting live tv, can anyone help figure out this log file? http://rafb.net/p/FzUbmU42.html
[00:26:15] iamben: from googling "GetEntryAt(-1) failed" it seems that is a symptom of any of a thousand different issues
[00:26:40] tjcarter: Damn, juski seriously has my respect.
[00:26:45] Kazan: i <3 HD
[00:26:48] iamben: from bad permissions on a store dir to bad guide data
[00:26:50] tjcarter: Theming Myth is NOT TRIVIAL

[00:29:41] Anduin: iamben: Your input has an associated source?
[00:30:10] ** tjcarter officially has two favorites on ocremix.org now: http://ocrmirror.org/Final_Fantasy_ChaosTemple_OC_ReMix.mp3 (which is too short) and http://ocrmirror.org/Super_Metroid_BrinstarDr . . . OC_ReMix.mp3 **
[00:30:34] tjcarter: /oops ww
[00:31:51] Anduin: iamben: You may have a bogus startchan as well (you would see recordings work but live TV fail)
[00:32:29] Anduin: iamben: and the times are way off
[00:33:08] iamben: Anduin: i checked start chan, its ok.. i even remade my video sources & such from scratch, to no avail
[00:33:24] tjcarter: Live TV is always fail. It's not good at testing arbitrary inputs, and there's no other purpose for it =D
[00:33:45] iamben: and my system time is correct
[00:33:58] Anduin: iamben: Is that -v all output?

[00:34:45] Anduin: iamben: Yeah -v most is usually good enough

[00:35:37] iamben: i may take this opportunity to rebuild this machine from scratch on this new hdd... its a gentoo machine that was put out of service a couple of years ago, i just recently put myth on it and brought it back up to date
[00:35:41] iamben: things are still feeling "dirty"
[00:37:19] iamben: Anduin: if i have some lib missing that is needed for tv playback, could it produce error output like that? i recently got rid of a LOT of libs, and caused a lot of breakage here and there, but everything else is back to norm (except myth)
[00:39:30] Anduin: iamben: I doubt it is a lib problem

[00:49:13] xskull33x: well... I am new to linux, so I don't know too much of what I am doing. running sbayon. I don't really even really know how to install myth
[00:49:56] tjcarter: xskull33x: my advice to all people is that your backend at least be a dedicated machine.
[00:50:28] xskull33x: why is that?
[00:50:30] tjcarter: if you want a standalone box, KnoppMyth, Mythdora, and Mythbuntu really simplify setup.
[00:50:47] Qwell: hey, so, I have a dilemma... need some tips, maybe. I recently upgraded mythtv and the ivtv driver, and the video is really "choppy" (it's hard to explain it..) now. I was curious if you guys were aware of an easy way to test whether the problem is a driver problem, or a wiring problem...
[00:51:00] psofa (psofa!n=psofa@adsl16-218.ath.forthnet.gr) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:51:04] tjcarter: Because backends chew up a lot of I/O (death to a desktop system's performance) and potentially eat lots of CPU/RAM too.
[00:51:36] iamben: Qwell: does it only happen when you first start watching, or always?
[00:51:54] Qwell: it's intermittent, heh
[00:51:56] tjcarter: If you are using hardware capture cards (PVR and the like as you are), and you're NOT transcoding, you can get by with a very modest CPU and RAM you probably have laying in a shoebox.
[00:51:59] Qwell: but, it happens always when it's running
[00:52:50] Qwell: and it appears to only be the video – the audio sounds okay

[00:52:52] xskull33x: ok, but this is the only computer i have
[00:53:00] cesman (cesman!n=cecil@pdpc/supporter/sustaining/cesman) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:53:21] varun0: I have certain video files that need hwdts as the audio codec and certain files that need hwac3 as the codec (for mplayer). In my player settings (in mythtvfrontend), if I specify either one, then the other kind of file won't work. Is there any way to have either kind of fine play correctly through the front end? (Does that make sense? :-\)
[00:53:25] tjcarter: These days, if I am looking to build such a box, I grab an AMD board, toss any random AMD X2 processor on it, somewhere between 256 MB and 1 GB RAM, a PVR-500, and a pair of 500 GB SATA drives.
[00:54:03] Qwell: okay, I lied, the audio sounds bad occasionally too
[00:54:06] xskull33x: Yea, but i just blew all my money on this computer like a month ago
[00:54:27] tjcarter: My setup is basically KnoppMyth's suggested defaults, with a LVM instead of the usual /myth
[00:54:35] iamben: Qwell: have you checked top for cpu usage while this occurs?
[00:54:50] Qwell: yeah, cpu is fine
[00:54:57] iamben: xskull33x: just install mythtv man, you'll be alright =)
[00:54:58] tjcarter: Currently I format everything ext3 except /myth, which is xfs..
[00:55:05] Qwell: 10% at most
[00:55:21] xskull33x: well my computer/card run fine in windows media center, i'm just trying to make the witch to linux (been dual booting for like a month now)
[00:55:39] tjcarter: I'm not 100% sold on xfs anymore though. ext3 isn't BAD for /myth, and jfs has advantages as well.
[00:55:45] xskull33x: iamben: that's my prob, I'm new to linux and need help to install
[00:56:10] rooaus: Qwell: You upgraded your distro packages or you compiling from svn?
[00:56:13] iamben: i dont even know what sabayon uses for package management
[00:56:17] iamben: it doesnt have portage does it?
[00:56:29] xskull33x: i've only done 2 installs in linux before, and they both came with like step by step commands for compiling etc.
[00:56:31] xskull33x: damn
[00:56:35] Qwell: rooaus: myth or ivtv? (the answer to both is the same.. gentoo)
[00:56:38] xskull33x: yea it has portage
[00:57:02] rooaus: Qwell: ok
[00:57:26] Qwell: it looks like it's happening with mplayer too, so it's clearly not mythtv... any idea if there's an ivtv channel anywhere?
[00:57:56] iamben: xskull33x: "emerge -pv mythtv" and see if the list of packages looks acceptable
[00:57:57] rooaus: no, I don't use ivtv fortunately.

[01:02:04] xskull33x: i'm going to follow it
[01:02:18] Qwell: hmm.. is there a feature in mythtv to do like the opposite of recording something?
[01:02:19] xskull33x: if i have issues i'll be back haha
[01:02:21] xskull33x: thanks anyway
[01:02:32] Qwell: I want to flag a show so that when it comes on, it just changes the channel. screw Carlos Mencia

[01:06:30] rooaus: Qwell: Ah hang on, that was for trunk. Sorry.
[01:06:36] Qwell: rooaus: that doesn't describe the problem I'm having. It's like...A/V corruption
[01:07:21] Anduin: Qwell: you can cat /dev/yourivtvdevice > somefile.mpg and play it somewhere else to see if it is the card
[01:07:32] Qwell: Anduin: yeah, mplayer is the same way

[02:16:00] tjcarter: CyberKnet: not quite
[02:16:28] tjcarter: it fails to meet the actual mATX dimensions properly, so it doesn't fit in some HTPC cases.
[02:17:41] tjcarter: I don't care about that myself. I want more space than the typical HTPC case for a standalone box (at least a pair of 500 GB drives), and that's an even taller order if you want HTPC cases

[02:40:10] tjcarter: with digital audio, it's just HDMI cable that ends in a DVI and coax SPDIF

[02:40:26] CyberKnet: Inssomniak: trying to conserve inputs on the TV
[02:40:26] Inssomniak: thats no conversions at all

[02:40:48] CyberKnet: Inssomniak: got it home and realized what i thought was another composite input was actually a composite output
[02:40:57] Inssomniak: CyberKnet, you are probably into a lot of money if they exist at all.

[03:05:56] defaultro: i really love crt, I have compared the pic quality to high end 1080p digital projectors and still doesn't match crt's capabilities
[03:06:01] defaultro: but they're getting better
[03:06:14] Inssomniak: defaultro, I agree but I cant stand the convergence problems with them :(
[03:06:31] |Torg|: id get a plasma or dlp if they came in 1080I and not that screwed up 1366x786 crap

[03:06:33] defaultro: i have to do convergence once a year
[03:06:45] defaultro: and it is still sharp
[03:07:01] defaultro: the one thing i love with my rptv crt is that, it's like film, like real
[03:07:10] Inssomniak: |Torg|, some companies make native 1080I LCD panels, and LCD RPTVs, LCD projectors
[03:07:15] defaultro: when i watch at my friends 1080p hdtv, it's sharp but something is missing
[03:07:27] |Torg|: yes Inssomniak for outragous prices
[03:07:29] defaultro: the 3dness is missing
[03:07:30] Inssomniak: yup

[03:07:50] |Torg|: that and 1080I on my DLP works fine
[03:07:56] defaultro: the only thing i;m worried with crt pj is the maintenance
[03:07:56] |Torg|: I just dont like the $250 bulbs
[03:08:02] Inssomniak: I bought for a company a native 1080i LCD flat panel for a company, for 1300 bux and that was almost a year ago
[03:08:16] defaultro: my friend's bulb died last week and he needs to buy again for $470
[03:08:22] defaultro: ouch, it only lasted for 1300 hours
[03:08:30] Inssomniak: defaultro, and they cant get quite as bright as a LCD/DLP though
[03:08:43] defaultro: my other friends who are using crt pj, their tube hours are now at 8000 hours and still going
[03:09:00] Inssomniak: 1300 hours, Im well over that on mine and its still going good
[03:09:02] defaultro: Insomniak, bulb is for digital
[03:09:06] defaultro: tube is for crt
[03:09:09] Inssomniak: I know lol
[03:09:11] defaultro: are you aware of that?
[03:09:19] defaultro: ok
[03:09:30] Inssomniak: CRt projectors cant get as bright as a LCD though,
[03:09:39] defaultro: that is true, it's for dedicated home theaters
[03:09:56] defaultro: that's where i am going to put it and not on family room
[03:09:57] Inssomniak: I repair TVs on the side :) lol of course I know :)
[03:10:02] defaultro: :D
[03:10:27] defaultro: family rooms are bright. CRTs are good on rooms where light can be controlled
[03:10:33] |Torg|: what i dont get is the hype of 1080P, 1080I actually looks better
[03:10:42] defaultro: Torg, nope
[03:10:48] defaultro: 1080p is amazing
[03:10:58] Inssomniak: the only 1080p Ive seen in my xbox 360
[03:11:00] defaultro: maybe, the setup you saw is not good
[03:11:03] |Torg|: defaultro what do you mean nope, its my opinion :P
[03:11:08] defaultro: oh
[03:11:18] defaultro: i have seen 1080p and my jaw dropped
[03:11:20] CyberKnet: It depends on what you are looking at... Progressive scan and interlace both have their strong points in different scenarios
[03:11:26] Inssomniak: yeap
[03:11:37] defaultro: I am already amazed with my 1080i but when i saw a 1080p crt, oh my god
[03:12:14] defaultro: i had some screenshots before of my crt but i can't access them anymore
[03:12:17] defaultro: let me try again
[03:12:22] |Torg|: I watch football (american that is) on my 1080I DLP and its jaw dropping, watching it on a smaller 1080P at the store and its not as impressive
[03:12:37] |Torg|: you can see artifact and tearing with the 1080P you dont see with my 1080I
[03:12:48] |Torg|: so as far as im concered ill stick with my DLP
[03:13:15] defaultro: i don't see any artifact
[03:13:30] |Torg|: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/JVC_HD_61Z575A
[03:13:47] |Torg|: thats my tv, the pitcure was scaled down more then 2:1 so the wiki could accept the filesize
[03:14:03] defaultro: I went to bestbuy the other day and we look at some of their high ends HDTV, LCD, DLP had some pixelization when there is fast moving object
[03:14:15] jhulst: I had a script on my old machine, mythlink I believe it was, that would create symbolic links to the tv shows, does anyone know where I can find that script?
[03:14:27] defaultro: my screenshots are gone :( http://web.archive.org/web/20070212125605/res . . . pc2hdtv.html

[03:15:06] jhulst: cesman: thanks
[03:15:11] cesman: |Torg|: it isn't KnoppMyth specific
[03:15:14] defaultro: it was actually on my old firewall which is still on the basement
[03:15:21] defaultro: however, I forgot which box it was
[03:15:24] cesman: we just try and make the good stuff default ;)
[03:15:26] |Torg|: cesman I didnt say it was, I said it was part of it

[03:17:08] defaultro: where is it?
[03:17:21] |Torg|: is that a subwoffer in the left side of teh picture?
[03:17:32] defaultro: yes
[03:17:39] |Torg|: After almost a year of usage, that was early December 2004, I realized that I was not using the full potentials of my hdtv. So, I went to Wal-Mart and bought the US Digital HDTV receiver.
[03:17:39] defaultro: that sub shakes my whole first floor
[03:17:54] defaultro: ah :D hehehee
[03:17:57] |Torg|: I thoguth it was USD TV, my free OTA cable with BS quailty on ATSC
[03:18:09] |Torg|: what model is the sub, I want one :)

[03:18:39] defaultro: it's called infinite baffle
[03:18:44] |Torg|: the system im using now is about 7 years old, I want to put the old subwoffer behsin ghe courch and install a new one
[03:18:47] defaultro: man, go search that
[03:18:53] |Torg|: I dont want to hear it, I want to FEEL it :P
[03:19:07] defaultro: then infinite baffle will shake your city
[03:19:24] |Torg|: the cows will enjoy it :P

[03:20:19] defaultro: or ceiling
[03:20:21] Dagmar: Just paint copper traces on the wall
[03:20:23] Inssomniak: I have a 12 inch driver in a bandpass box meant for a car, with a 200 watt car amp behind my couch :)
[03:20:26] Dagmar: Will molten copper

[03:20:31] Dagmar: s/Will/With/;
[03:20:36] defaultro: ok
[03:20:42] defaultro: my sub is called SVSwoofer
[03:20:43] |Torg|: I took 2500 square feet of furante and made it fit, its tight enough already
[03:21:06] defaultro: i will sell it next year once I get 4 15" or 18" drivers
[03:21:23] defaultro: it;s 20–39PCi model
[03:21:36] defaultro: they have other models that can go as low as 10hz
[03:21:44] defaultro: mine can only do 18hz
[03:21:49] defaultro: which is still infrasonic
[03:22:06] defaultro: it's not loud, but tight, and sometimes moves my pants :D
[03:22:15] |Torg|: so this is just a box? whats the baffles?
[03:22:25] defaultro: the IB?
[03:22:28] |Torg|: yes
[03:22:33] defaultro: they have 2 options
[03:22:39] Dagmar: Why can't people just say "subsonic" anymore
[03:22:41] defaultro: one is manifold and the other one is array
[03:22:49] defaultro: ok, then subsonic
[03:22:50] defaultro: :D
[03:23:07] |Torg|: two drives mounted in oposition, I still dot get the baffle part tho
[03:23:12] |Torg|: err drivers
[03:23:31] defaultro: the baffle part will be the manifold
[03:23:37] defaultro: it's open design
[03:23:46] defaultro: the website can explain it better
[03:24:42] |Torg|: thats what im looking at
[03:24:45] defaultro: cool
[03:25:00] CyberKnet: hmmm.... no micro-atx motherboards with spdif
[03:25:05] defaultro: don't know when I will have it. I have to start building the basement first
[03:25:06] |Torg|: hence my commont about how im not tearing into the wall
[03:25:22] defaultro: then just go with the SVS woofer I bought
[03:25:28] defaultro: i'm very happy with it
[03:25:37] defaultro: it's not boomy
[03:25:50] defaultro: but shakes my couch even if you can't hear it
[03:26:00] defaultro: maybe because of the air it's pushing out

[03:32:24] |Torg|: it still will
[03:33:10] |Torg|: ive played shitty DVDs with a good surround sound, they notice the LFE and the positional audio and forget about the shitty 480
[03:33:14] defaultro: yes, having a good audio definitely changes viewing experience
[03:33:52] defaultro: i learned a lot of techniques from avsforum.com especially when calibrating lfe
[03:34:06] defaultro: 480, you mean Y coor?
[03:34:17] |Torg|: you do know myth dosnt do spdif passthough right? thats like saying my ethernet card does cat5 pasthoguh
[03:34:33] defaultro: yes, it's the driver
[03:34:42] defaultro: i should have said, it's has support

[03:51:42] |Torg|: the only performance tuning tool I know of to work 100% is to unplug the ethernet cable
[03:51:47] |Torg|: works really well too :P
[03:51:59] tjcarter: I was talking about the AC cable
[03:52:05] defaultro: there was a funny jpg picture to make a very secure firewall
[03:52:15] defaultro: it was hand drawn
[03:52:15] tjcarter: I'm not sure unplugging the network cable is sufficient to make IRIX secure on the network.
[03:52:30] jams: btw rooaus i was not trying to discourage you earlier. The idea is good.
[03:52:35] defaultro: the ethernet port and cable was connected to a 110ac slot :)
[03:52:53] |Torg|: I know to make a sun box secure you unplug the keyboard
[03:53:08] defaultro: that's one
[03:53:18] defaultro: then no monitor
[03:53:28] |Torg|: it wil stop-a the box :P
[03:54:02] defaultro: then ssh/telnet disabled
[03:54:09] |Torg|: what do you run off the U1, I can hardly tell its a UI and can only guess by the color of the decal :P
[03:54:21] defaultro: you can only manage by going directly to the machine and using serial port
[03:54:29] |Torg|: stop-a a sun box and it goes to OBP, about all you can do is ping it
[03:54:31] defaultro: it's a U1
[03:54:47] |Torg|: defaultro I belive you, whats on it?
[03:54:58] defaultro: i installed sol8 bfefore, then i also installed debian for sparc
[03:55:11] |Torg|: my two classic and IPXs are in teh closet I dont run them
[03:55:13] defaultro: it was running apache before, now it's on the basement collecting dust
[03:55:28] defaultro: i hate that machine because it is slow
[03:55:37] |Torg|: slow is a realative term :P
[03:55:53] rooaus: jams: No probs, I understand there is a bit of work... the biggest problem would be submitting patches. Probably would need to include some shell scripts.
[03:55:53] defaultro: hmmm, disk writes
[03:56:04] |Torg|: slow is usualy slow ass memory and slower ass disk
[03:56:11] defaultro: yes, both
[03:56:14] RyeBrye (RyeBrye!n=opera@42.237.sfcn.org) has joined #mythtv-users
[03:56:26] |Torg|: my SB 2000 runs fine with 8 way interleaved memory and 800Mhz dual cpus
[03:56:32] defaultro: it was just given to me by a prev officemate
[03:56:38] defaultro: what's SB?
[03:56:43] |Torg|: it putperforms my P4 3GHZ dual core, in many fucntions
[03:56:45] |Torg|: SunBlade
[03:56:45] RyeBrye: tjcarter – I got those images... What do you mean when you say $MYSTERY_OS? – is that the Apple TV OS?
[03:56:52] |Torg|: there Sun workstations
[03:56:53] defaultro: ah, I have sunblade in my cube too
[03:56:55] defaultro: but it's off
[03:56:59] tjcarter: RyeBrye: 9a527
[03:57:00] defaultro: it's only got 128mb
[03:57:02] defaultro: LOL
[03:57:15] |Torg|: mine has 1G in 128M sticks
[03:57:16] RyeBrye: tjcarter – AHHH gotcha :)
[03:57:34] tjcarter: I have NFI if it's a bug or a change.
[03:58:07] tjcarter: But I figure that sooner or later that portion of code needs examination to do something about the drawing of the guide under the video
[03:58:22] RyeBrye: Probably a bug – since it doesn't do that on 8R2232
[03:58:24] defaultro: are you guys going to record Bionic Woman?
[03:58:25] tjcarter: Given that OSD works, it's possible to do this right, but the Z order is coming out wrong.
[03:58:32] defaultro: Heroes is near too!
[03:59:05] |Torg|: ill probbly record Bionic Womand, then enver watch it
[03:59:21] tjcarter: RyeBrye: it doesn't happen in 8r2218
[03:59:28] defaultro: :)
[03:59:36] |Torg|: Mon 9/17 9:00 PM – Encoder 1 – KXAS-DT – Heroes
[03:59:41] jams: rooaus- it will be tedious, heck it took me a week to move all my fonts into theme.xml
[03:59:41] GreyFoxx: defaultro: I plan on recording both :)
[03:59:44] defaultro: cool
[03:59:45] |Torg|: were still not on teh new season
[03:59:52] RyeBrye: tjcarter – I haven't bothered with the 9a stuff yet because it's still too far out for my tastes... I prefer when it gets closer to GM
[03:59:57] tjcarter: RyeBrye: I don't dare install 8r2232, one beta OS is sufficient.
[03:59:59] defaultro: i was wondering why I wasn't seeing Bionic Woman. I'll run mythfilldatabase now
[04:00:13] tjcarter: you realize that's like two weeks from now yes?
[04:00:15] RyeBrye: tjcarter – 8r2232 is the latest release pushed down by apple
[04:00:17] tjcarter: at the most.
[04:00:20] defaultro: what about Moonlight, looks like it's cool too
[04:00:26] defaultro: and also Journeyman
[04:00:37] |Torg|: Journeyman im recording
[04:00:42] |Torg|: well, will
[04:00:54] tjcarter: RyeBrye: I didn't see it in Software Update this morning?
[04:01:00] RyeBrye: tjcarter – yeah, but that build is about 17 days old now isn't it? I'll wait for the GM build to get pushed out :)
[04:01:17] defaultro: btw, which table is our SD password stored? Is it in settings table?
[04:01:24] |Torg|: yes
[04:01:27] defaultro: ok
[04:01:33] |Torg|: how do I make it gather 14 days instead of 7?
[04:01:42] tjcarter: If not for some significant issues (namely, it broke PDFPenPro, which is an application I depend on), I'd be in 9a527 right now.
[04:01:42] |Torg|: its been so damn long now I forgot how I did it with Z2I
[04:01:51] tjcarter: Although Front Row 2.0 is ... SLOW!
[04:02:04] tjcarter: I mean, I call it up and it looks like it doesn't happen
[04:02:14] tjcarter: then 2 minutes later as I'm doing other things it comes up
[04:02:17] tjcarter: and works fine
[04:02:25] RyeBrye: tjcarter – I don't know when it got pushed out... but I've only down software updates on my machine here and that's the build number it reports
[04:02:29] tjcarter: I assume this is a bug  ;)
[04:02:45] RyeBrye: tjcarter – does it have a release java 1.6 on there?
[04:02:56] GreyFoxx: defaultro: I thought heroes was suppose to start on the 24th, not the 17th
[04:02:58] tjcarter: I haven't looked at Java honestly
[04:03:20] GreyFoxx: defaultro: EVen the nbc site shows the 24th
[04:03:23] RyeBrye: ls /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/ and do you see 1.6 there?
[04:03:24] defaultro: it;s 24th
[04:03:29] |Torg|: defaultro I was wrong its in videosource, not settings
[04:03:37] defaultro: ah, that's why i couldn't find it :)
[04:03:39] ** GreyFoxx is rebuilding his myth setup from scratch on SAturday **
[04:03:44] defaultro: thanks for finding for me
[04:03:45] rooaus: jams: Yeah, I have looked at the theme ui stuff a couple of times, it really does suck. As I don't have any real graphic design skills I thought if the theme stuff was easier to deal with then maybe more people will contribute new themes. :)
[04:03:57] GreyFoxx: new hardware, new distro install, etc
[04:04:03] GreyFoxx: and another 1.2T of space
[04:04:05] tjcarter: 1.3@ 1.3.1/ 1.4@ 1.4.1@ 1.4.2/ 1.5@ 1.5.0/ A/ Current@ CurrentJDK@
[04:04:10] GreyFoxx: all to be ready for next week :)
[04:04:14] tjcarter: Not yet apparently
[04:04:23] |Torg|: I just did a new upgade to 14490
[04:04:27] RyeBrye: tjcater - :( I heard it was goign to have 1.6 release pushed out with it... no more of this 1.6 DP crap
[04:04:27] defaultro: i'm jealous with your space GreyFoxx
[04:04:31] |Torg|: mostly I want to see if mythwether works any better
[04:04:37] tjcarter: we should probably be somewhat careful about this discussion though.. NDA and all.
[04:04:45] RyeBrye: True...
[04:04:55] tjcarter: (it was easier a couple of weeks ago when I knew all of the details I know now and wasn't under NDA)
[04:04:59] tjcarter: ;)
[04:05:04] RyeBrye: ;)
[04:05:21] tjcarter: someone else's neck, etc
[04:05:41] tjcarter: I guess I'll wait for next seed and see what shakes out
[04:05:49] tjcarter: next seed is probably GM anyway
[04:05:53] GreyFoxx: defaultro: There is never enough :)
[04:06:05] RyeBrye: did you look at that playback setting for the image fill method or whatever where you can set it to image, or whatnot...
[04:06:06] tjcarter: a fact which has a lot of us a little concerned at this stage actually
[04:06:07] defaultro: you must be recording tons of shows :D
[04:06:17] RyeBrye: tjcarter – yeah, sounds shaky
[04:06:32] tjcarter: er playback setting?
[04:06:36] defaultro: GreyFoxx, how is your /video configured, RAID?
[04:06:38] RyeBrye: Let me find the one I'm talking about
[04:06:54] jams: GreyFoxx- new distro? did i finally convert you ;)
[04:07:01] GreyFoxx: jams hehe
[04:07:16] |Torg|: I undid my raid for sotrage groups
[04:07:18] GreyFoxx: I'm actually not decided on what distro, but I haven't reinstalled my master backend in a few years
[04:07:29] GreyFoxx: defaultro: Multiple raid sets
[04:07:34] defaultro: k
[04:07:39] GreyFoxx: currently in 2 boxes
[04:07:39] jams: must be slackware 9
[04:07:46] GreyFoxx: jams: 10.1 :)
[04:07:47] defaultro: jams, what distro are you recommending to GreyFoxx
[04:07:52] |Torg|: GreyFoxx go with Debian :)
[04:07:58] tjcarter: playback profiles ... this is new?
[04:08:04] RyeBrye: tjcarter  – sorry – appearance... The "use transparent boxes" and the "popup background shading method" – probably wont fix it but it's worth a shot
[04:08:15] RyeBrye: I thnk it's on page2 or 3
[04:08:19] ** defaultro learned Slackware first, his first linux hands on, kernel 1.2.13 :D **
[04:08:26] GreyFoxx: |Torg|: the odds of me changing distros is unlikely, I'm I'm open to it right now
[04:08:43] tjcarter: RyeBrye: changing from alpha under appearance fixed the font issue
[04:08:53] tjcarter: RyeBrye: guide UNDER paused video ... that I don't know.
[04:09:17] jams: defaultro- just some stuff i'm tinking around. Greyfoxx gave it a look a few weeks back.
[04:09:32] defaultro: which distro, slackware?
[04:09:34] |Torg|: my first Linux box was yggdrasil froma CD in the back of unix toady magazine, I cant even remebree what kernel it was
[04:09:50] defaultro: you were lucky, you were already using cd
[04:09:56] GreyFoxx: defaultro: Slackware is by far my favourite. I use it on everything.
[04:09:57] defaultro: we used 1.44 floppies before :D
[04:09:58] RyeBrye: tjcarter – hopefully the next seed will fix it all.... or else perhaps they will have a "time machine" to go back to Tiger :)
[04:10:03] GreyFoxx: but I am considering trying something different :)
[04:10:14] tjcarter: =p
[04:10:43] GreyFoxx: my problem is that I detest pretty much all package systems that aren't just basic tarballs :)
[04:10:48] |Torg|: so what do I need to do to tell my Sd grabber to get 14 days, not 7?
[04:10:54] tjcarter: RyeBrye: guide under paused video isn't a $MYSTERY_OS feature, it's been part of MythFrontend.app all throughout 0.20
[04:11:04] tjcarter: continues to be an issue in trunk
[04:11:08] defaultro: Here is my order of os usage in years, Slackware, Redhat, Suse, FreeBSD, Redhat, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, FreeBSD again, FC.... :P
[04:11:19] |Torg|: yuo remeber all those?
[04:11:20] defaultro: oh, i forgot debian
[04:11:21] GreyFoxx: |Torg|: Using the myth built in grabber? I think it's 14 by default.
[04:11:36] defaultro: I remember some but it's hard
[04:11:37] GreyFoxx: I didn't realize it could be set lower
[04:11:40] RyeBrye: tjcarter – that's strange.
[04:11:44] |Torg|: yes GreyFoxx builnt in, neve did anyhting more then set it up. apears to be grabbing 7 days tho
[04:11:46] jams: defaultro- it's loosely based on archlinux.
[04:11:52] GreyFoxx: weird
[04:11:53] defaultro: k
[04:12:00] tjcarter: RyeBrye: do you not get that problem?
[04:12:08] |Torg|: I did RH, mandrake, RH, FC, Suse, Debina
[04:12:16] RyeBrye: tjcarter – I don't think so. How do you get it? Just pause video and open the guide?
[04:12:26] ** defaultro 's mythfilldatabase is finished. Checking Bionic Woman now **
[04:12:28] tjcarter: RyeBrye: just hit s while watching something
[04:12:35] jams: defaultro- you can poke around mythvantage.com if you want. Not much to see though
[04:12:43] defaultro: oh, let me look at it now
[04:13:16] defaultro: you built it?
[04:13:21] RyeBrye: tjcarter – for a split second the content is in front of the guide, but then the video window gets resized and goes up to the top right corner
[04:13:21] jams: yeah
[04:13:33] defaultro: very cool
[04:13:35] tjcarter: RyeBrye: I don't have that.

[04:13:50] jams: just playing around, learning c++ as i go
[04:13:55] defaultro: like the serial based infrared receiver I built
[04:14:14] defaultro: i also want to learn c++ but don't know where to start :P
[04:14:26] |Torg|: with C
[04:14:36] defaultro: I know C but a little
[04:14:42] defaultro: i was ok back in college
[04:15:01] defaultro: i love programming the registers :D
[04:15:07] defaultro: like those intr 13h
[04:15:14] |Torg|: I learned it from a set calld Coranado a while back, I think you can still find those lessions on line
[04:15:16] defaultro: regs ah on service 5
[04:15:19] RyeBrye: It's ok – learning C++ is only half the battle if you want to do stuff with MythTV – After getting the basics of C++ down you then have to learn QT crap
[04:15:28] defaultro: oh
[04:15:29] tjcarter: RyeBrye: new email
[04:15:33] RyeBrye: k
[04:15:49] defaultro: do i need to buy a book for C++ or it's just a waste of money?

[04:16:06] RyeBrye: good API reference

[04:16:30] defaultro: they have examples on how to use it :P
[04:16:34] defaultro: that's what I want too
[04:16:40] |Torg|: hell I learned Cobol and Fortran in school
[04:16:48] defaultro: PIC 99
[04:16:50] defaultro: :D
[04:16:51] RyeBrye: There are tons of good books – Code Complete is a good general programming one that also has some C++ examples...
[04:16:53] |Torg|: if I can learn those I thought, C would be easy
[04:17:08] defaultro: I programmed in OS34 in school too
[04:17:17] RyeBrye: tjcarter – what theme are you using? I'm using MythMediaCenterWide and have no problems
[04:17:23] defaultro: lol, you have to count the screen for the gotoxy
[04:17:38] RyeBrye: tjcarter – sorry... MythCenter
[04:17:45] defaultro: thanks for the link, I will bookmark it
[04:17:53] |Torg|: GreyFoxx you were correct I neglected to read that line in mythweb that said
[04:17:59] |Torg|: next 10 shows
[04:17:59] RyeBrye: defaultro – del.icio.us search for C++ and you'll find some good stuff in there
[04:18:10] defaultro: funny link name :)
[04:18:11] |Torg|: I went to upcomming and its all there :)
[04:18:29] rooaus: RyeBrye: Can you restate the problem?
[04:18:29] defaultro: that's a cool link
[04:18:33] tjcarter: RyeBrye: Currently Pear-ody
[04:18:43] tjcarter: RyeBrye: but also Blootubelite-wide
[04:19:06] defaultro: what do I need on my linux box to do c++ programming?
[04:19:14] |Torg|: vi?
[04:19:17] tjcarter: testing mythcenter-wide
[04:19:18] defaultro: of course :)
[04:19:27] defaultro: what is the compiler? is it also gcc
[04:19:28] |Torg|: g++ would help as well as the ld tools
[04:19:42] RyeBrye: defaultro – time. :)
[04:19:42] tjcarter: I was thinking maybe playback setting or something
[04:19:42] defaultro: so yum search what?
[04:19:49] defaultro: time is ok, I love studying
[04:19:58] |Torg|: g++ and you can mismatch gcc and g++ and come out with some rather screwed up binaries be carefull to kep them the same
[04:19:59] Anduin: defaultro: gcc-g++
[04:20:00] defaultro: what compiler do I need to install
[04:20:04] tjcarter: yes, same problem
[04:20:05] defaultro: cool Anduin
[04:20:11] rooaus: defaultro: g++ and build-essentials
[04:20:22] defaultro: ok
[04:20:24] RyeBrye: defaultro – I think you should start with something simple...
[04:20:37] RyeBrye: defaultro – I started by completely rewriting the Linux Kernel in a clean room, for instance

[04:21:50] defaultro: BAM
[04:21:53] RyeBrye: rooaus – tjcarter is having the problem. I'm not having it.
[04:21:55] defaultro: here is mine
[04:21:59] defaultro: 10 PMODE 4,1
[04:22:05] |Torg|: oh and fix my mistyping
[04:22:06] defaultro: 20 GOTO 500,100
[04:22:15] rooaus: RyeBrye: sorry
[04:22:20] defaultro: 30 line (300,200) to (500,100)
[04:22:20] RyeBrye: defaultro – if you want a list of projects to try to hammer out – there is a good C++ intro course that is also and advanced programming course at BYU where I went – the list of projects they have students write is here: http://faculty.cs.byu.edu/~rodham/cs240/projects.html
[04:22:25] tjcarter: RyeBrye: yes
[04:22:26] RyeBrye: rooaus – np
[04:22:29] defaultro: do you remember those coding folks?
[04:22:45] defaultro: thanks RyeBrye, i look at it
[04:23:10] defaultro: yum didn't find gcc-g++
[04:23:18] RyeBrye: defaultro – the first 3 on there are not too bad... They are designed so that after you have written them once you can re-write them later in the "programming exam" in under an hour or two...
[04:23:32] |Torg|: here compile this "main() {}"
[04:23:41] |Torg|: wont do shit, but its a valid program
[04:23:45] defaultro: :)
[04:23:54] defaultro: void
[04:24:02] defaultro: return ptr
[04:24:06] defaultro: heheh
[04:24:11] rooaus: tjcarter: So is the problem when you bring the epg up when in livetv or a recording?
[04:24:17] tjcarter: rooaus: yes
[04:24:22] Anduin: defaultro: sorry gcc-c++
[04:24:31] defaultro: oh ok
[04:24:34] |Torg|: Anduin is that the name of the package?
[04:24:42] Anduin: |Torg|: it is
[04:24:49] |Torg|: ahh I was wondering :)
[04:24:59] defaultro: it won't break my existing gcc correct?
[04:25:00] |Torg|: its apt-cache search g++ :P
[04:25:06] Anduin: defaultro: It will not
[04:25:06] |Torg|: its seperate
[04:25:09] defaultro: LOL, gcc-c++.i386 4.1.1–30 installed
[04:25:10] rooaus: tjcarter: do you have the guide jumppoint and guide binding in tvplayback set to the same key?
[04:25:19] |Torg|: like I said you can have gcc 3.x and g++ 4.x
[04:25:22] |Torg|: DONT, but you can
[04:25:29] tjcarter: rooaus: I didn't set them that way
[04:25:31] defaultro: i need to learn first how to compile using g++
[04:25:36] |Torg|: defaultro have you ever compiled myth?
[04:25:39] defaultro: yes
[04:25:45] |Torg|: then OF COURSE you have it :P
[04:25:51] defaultro: i don't want that beceause it's high level
[04:26:00] |Torg|: g++ works the same as gcc for compiling
[04:26:00] defaultro: i want something that we can run gcc -o some some.c
[04:26:06] rooaus: tjcarter: What is the problem you are seeing?
[04:26:11] defaultro: oh, so it's the same?
[04:26:14] |Torg|: g++ sometihng.cpp -o whatever
[04:26:21] |Torg|: if not you get a.out bianires
[04:26:22] defaultro: coolio
[04:26:26] tjcarter: guide is s
[04:26:42] defaultro: is c++ hot in the market as well?
[04:26:43] tjcarter: guide jumppoint is unset
[04:27:06] tjcarter: this may not work
[04:27:15] defaultro: can I also program in c++ and have it connect to our oracle, then pull some data?
[04:27:15] |Torg|: you can call your source code whatever you damn well pleas too, .cpp is just the convention as .c is for C source
[04:27:41] |Torg|: you can compile a txt file if you want, g++ blah.txt will work if it contains c++ code
[04:27:57] defaultro: yeah, there are no extensions in Unix :)
[04:28:13] tjcarter: rooaus: if the dcc isn't working, I can forward the mail with image attached I just sent RyeBrye
[04:28:18] |Torg|: use the kiten sink programmng mething (oh object oriented), there is probbly a API with headders for Oracle as there are for MySql
[04:28:29] defaultro: k
[04:28:39] |Torg|: then its seting up a socket, putting in a DB call and running it
[04:28:47] |Torg|: much like PHP or perl does it
[04:28:55] defaultro: so to be able to connect to a database, all we do is include <thatlibrary.h>?
[04:28:56] |Torg|: jsut slightly differnt syntax
[04:28:58] rooaus: tjcarter: it is just waiting to download @ 0%
[04:29:24] |Torg|: usually defaultro, depends if thats all you need. IM certain youc an google it and come up with more then a few examples
[04:29:33] defaultro: k
[04:29:34] tjcarter: rooaus: yeah probably trying to do so from 192.168.7.3
[04:29:36] RyeBrye: Has anyone here worked with Adobe Flex much?
[04:29:42] rooaus: lol
[04:29:46] |Torg|: http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/oci/occi/index.html
[04:29:56] tjcarter: some interesting bug with irssi and Linux IRC masq module
[04:30:01] defaultro: that's cool
[04:30:08] RyeBrye: instead of googling for code, you can use koders or krugle – both are good code search engines
[04:30:10] tjcarter: gimme an addy and I'll forward email
[04:30:17] |Torg|: http://www.codeproject.com/database/oracle_oci.asp
[04:30:17] defaultro: that's enough for my brain tonight
[04:30:20] defaultro: :P
[04:30:28] |Torg|: thats the firstr lnks off google becase im lazy :P
[04:30:33] defaultro: :D
[04:30:37] RyeBrye: defaultro – you shuold write an oracle module for MythTV
[04:30:39] RyeBrye: ;)
[04:30:51] |Torg|: its not a oracle moles
[04:30:54] defaultro: when I learn it, I want to share too
[04:30:58] RyeBrye: For all those Myth Users with hundreds of thousands of dollars to burn :)
[04:30:59] |Torg|: most the mysql calls are hard coded into it
[04:31:07] RyeBrye: ok, an oracle branch ten :)
[04:31:13] |Torg|: RyeBrye you can get an oracle light license
[04:31:14] RyeBrye: err... then
[04:31:15] defaultro: i wrote some few shell scripts before for myth but don't know where it is now
[04:31:27] defaultro: earlier days, it was tough inserting channels
[04:31:40] |Torg|: the exercise would be futile tho, mysql is better suited for myth then oracle tho
[04:31:51] defaultro: yes, mysql is really fast
[04:31:56] RyeBrye: yeah, it would be
[04:31:59] defaultro: i hate our oracle in the office, it's turtle
[04:32:49] |Torg|: about the only thing Oracle would help with is that mythfilldatabse at 2AM
[04:32:51] defaultro: brb folks
[04:33:04] |Torg|: other then that your selecting over and over and Oracles locking would kill you
[04:33:22] |Torg|: well most peopple onlyu have one FE and BE combined so they proobly would never even encounter locking
[04:33:47] |Torg|: pop in Oracle and watch your spin loock fly too, oracle is allot like my ex wife
[04:33:53] |Torg|: the more you give it the more it wants :P
[04:33:58] tjcarter: rooaus: any sense out of that?
[04:33:59] RyeBrye: :)
[04:34:12] |Torg|: all this wo you can slect a few rows to change a chanel!!!!!!
[04:34:43] rooaus: tjcarter: That certainly isn't the issue I though it might be... looks like the window stack isn't drawing/stacking properly. Are you using the qt or opengl painter?
[04:36:35] tjcarter: rooaus: OpenGL presently
[04:37:13] ** tjcarter tests Qt **

[04:38:45] robbins876: especially since i work as a collector for a credit card company...this is going to be a long semester
[04:39:08] tjcarter: easier to change in setup and restart when you're using a Mac app bundle
[04:39:20] rooaus: tjcarter: I don't know then. Sorry, that wasn't much help.
[04:39:37] tjcarter: I think you're right about window stacking order
[04:40:20] tjcarter: I'm not familiar with the code though, so I wouldn't know what to look for
[04:40:44] tjcarter: My language is C, not C++/Qt
[04:41:03] rooaus: tjcarter: I would post on the mailing list, maybe nigel might be able to help.
[04:41:58] tjcarter: I'm fairly well convinced the issue is Mac-only
[04:42:08] tjcarter: it's not a new bug  ;)
[04:42:24] tjcarter: It's existed in all 0.20 builds for Intel Mac
[04:42:37] tjcarter: It didn't exist in 0.19 build for PPC Mac
[04:42:56] tjcarter: Couldn't tell you if this is an Intel issue or a 0.20 issue
[04:43:47] tjcarter: maybe there was something real recently that fixed it?
[04:44:07] tjcarter: RyeBrye: My trunk build is a couple days old, are you using something more recent?  ;)
[04:44:21] rooaus: tjcarter: Nigel is the Mac developer, so even searching the mail archives / tickets he was involved in might help.
[04:44:57] rooaus: Anyway I need to go pack the car, got a couple hour trip in front of me. goodluck.

[05:08:48] d3ity: worked yesterday
[05:08:55] d3ity: then it crashed last night, had to reboot the backend pc
[05:09:01] d3ity: how would I clear out all the mysql info and start over?
[05:09:29] robbins876: i think you just need to give the remote frontend access to the mysql database
[05:09:50] robbins876: http://wilsonet.com/mythtv/tips.php
[05:10:10] robbins876: scroll down and take a look at the remote front-ends section, it's a fedora guide, but it should all be pretty standard stuff
[05:10:46] d3ity: it's already been setup
[05:10:49] d3ity: my mysql just crashed
[05:11:17] d3ity: All i think I need to do is remove all the mysql stuff for myth and redo it
[05:11:28] robbins876: i'm not really sure how to go about doing that
[05:11:59] robbins876: is the mysql service running on the backend?

[06:45:56] Chutt: did you agree to the earlier one?
[06:46:10] Chutt: to it earlier, rather
[06:46:18] Tanthrix: jblack: They just changed the font size slightly
[06:46:30] jblack: Chutt: No
[06:46:46] Chutt: jblack, probably a reminder, then.
[06:46:49] jblack: Tanthrix: Seriously?
[06:46:59] Tanthrix: jblack: No.
[06:47:31] jblack: Chutt: Actually, I've been pushing for changes to the PP due to the interaction between some of the clauses.
[06:47:39] Chutt: it took a month to get the first one done.
[06:47:46] Chutt: you think you'll get changes in a week?
[06:48:15] jblack: I'm trying real hard, because SD is going to cut my service tomorrow.
[06:48:55] Chutt: 'trying'? =)
[06:50:15] kormoc: jblack, you realize that most of that is more for protection then real usage. It's better to say your phone number might go to the accountants for some now unknown reason then giving it without permission and getting sued...
[06:50:18] jblack: Yeah. Trying. :( I haven't succeeded yet. I've made progress though... I've gotten a shift from a "you can't read" to "it doesn't say that" to "you're complaining about things that haven't happened yet" to ominious silence. ;D
[07:00:17] Dagmar: So, in other words, you haven't cited a specific problem
[07:00:46] jblack: Acdtually, I have.
[07:01:30] jblack: Many times. I'll give you the forum post that covers everything best: http://forums.schedulesdirect.org/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=306
[07:01:43] ** kormoc is writing a reply **
[07:02:54] Dagmar: jblack: I suspect maybe you should cite *why* you think that's "unusually broad"
[07:03:01] jblack: I did.
[07:03:08] Dagmar: No, you didn't.
[07:03:14] jblack: I didn't
[07:03:19] Dagmar: Yes, you didn't.
[07:03:45] Dagmar: You went on to talk about various sections, but you failed to actually compare them to the privacy policies of other companies engaged in similar endeavors.
[07:03:51] jblack: I must have edited it out. I did provide examples of the time of other sites, such as yahoo and google, which have paid accounts, that don't require phone number and home address.
[07:04:18] jblack: I don't know in google's case. I do know in yahoo's case.
[07:05:49] jblack: I think that at the time I considered it obvious that most places are wililng to collect that sort of information, but don't specifically require it, unless items being shipped.
[07:06:45] Dagmar: So, if you can _opt out_ of the third party mailing stuff, I fail to see the problem there
[07:06:48] kormoc: other then having the upstream supplier of data requireing it?
[07:07:11] Dagmar: I also didn't notice anything being especially picky about my address field

[07:11:34] jblack: I think I'll need to do a follow writing to cover that too. It was covered here on irc, but not in what I wrote.
[07:11:38] Dagmar: For the purposes of auditing is why th rest of it is there
[07:12:04] Dagmar: This sounds quite a bit like "it's in the contract we have with TMS": In addition, in the event of an audit of Company by Supplier, Supplier may examine all user data collected by Company, which data may include Your PII.
[07:12:10] jblack: Basically there was common agreement here that it's common for companies to silently re-opt-in clients.
[07:12:22] ** kormoc blinks **
[07:12:29] Chutt: full refund is a button click away.
[07:12:36] Dagmar: jblack: So basically, you're saying that SD is going to be sending out Viagra spam
[07:12:44] Chutt: i'm going to call during dinner.
[07:12:45] Chutt: :p
[07:12:47] jblack: No. Basically, I'm saying they _can_
[07:12:53] ** kormoc sighs **
[07:13:36] kormoc: jblack, why are you using myth? Myth could start uploading your home directorys to anywhere in the world silently cause it's not restricted to, yet you trust it not to. Why not the trust in SD?
[07:14:07] Dagmar: You realize of course that if they are audited by TMS, and then TMS has someone steal the info, what you want would make SD liable for that
[07:14:36] jblack: I can't answer both of you at the same time. Give me a chance to take this on one step at a time?
[07:15:05] kormoc: jblack, you also seem to be forgetting that SD is a non-profit company. They're not driven to make money. It's run by people who are not getting a cent for it...
[07:15:22] Tanthrix: I'd say IRC doesn't lend itself well to a conversation like this. Best stick to the forum's I'd say.
[07:15:27] jblack: I don't have the distrust in mythtv using my private information to contact me for marketing because 1) They dont' collect that information and 2) They don't have, and haven't asked for, a privacy policy that gives them permission to do so.
[07:15:47] Dagmar: ...and you're wanting what, a clause that says "If you uncheck the Newsletter and Promotional Emails clauses in your registration, we promise never to ever reverse it"?
[07:16:00] Dagmar: There's *nothing* unusual in this agreement
[07:16:03] Chutt: i'm going to start selling the ip addresses of people visiting mythtv.org
[07:16:03] jblack: kormoc: I'd be satisfied if the marketing and promition exclusions were stricken.
[07:16:19] Chutt: jblack, opt out check-boxes in your account settings.
[07:16:40] Dagmar: You act like there's no recourse or something to stop the emails after you turn them off
[07:16:41] jblack: chutt: I have. You're missing some history though...
[07:16:57] Chutt: what, that you're basically saying that we're going to change those settings on you?
[07:17:06] jblack: When I first signed up for the service, there were no opt-out boxes. Those opt-in boxes were added after the fact, and I was silently added
[07:17:11] kormoc: <jblack> Basically there was common agreement here that it's common for companies to silently re-opt-in clients.
[07:17:21] jblack: chutt: It's already happened once, so I don't think that it can be held as impossible.
[07:17:24] Chutt: err
[07:17:31] Chutt: the website was still being written :p
[07:17:50] Dagmar: You weren't _re_added
[07:17:51] Chutt: ya know, the whole 'hard deadline to have service running' thing
[07:17:51] kormoc: jblack, would you have perfered to have no listings while the site was being perfected?
[07:17:55] Dagmar: You were put in at hte default
[07:18:09] phedny_: is it normal for mythcommflag to hog my CPU when it doens't have any jobs to process?

[07:18:22] Chutt: but, wasn't my decision.
[07:18:25] jblack: The default at the time I signed up was not to be opped in. That was changed after SD collected my money.
[07:18:46] kormoc: jblack, so again, just decline and you'll get a full refund
[07:18:53] Dagmar: So, exactly which is it?
[07:19:04] jblack: Which is what?
[07:19:09] Dagmar: One minute you say there were no opt-out boxes, the next you say you were opted out originally?
[07:19:26] kormoc: jblack, actually, the default when you signed up was opt-in without an ability to opt-out
[07:19:45] jblack: There were no opped in boxes. There was no privacy policy that I had agreed to saying I was not automatically opted in.
[07:20:07] kormoc: and there was no policy saying your email wasn't going to be used for spam and the like
[07:20:08] Chutt: there was (and still is) text saying that the privacy policy was temporary and you would have to agree to it later on.
[07:20:10] Dagmar: Of course there wasn't
[07:20:19] jblack: kormoc: When I signed up, there was no privacy policy. I'm one of the early signups, that became a paying member before there was anything.
[07:20:23] Dagmar: You weren't _re_opted in as you claim
[07:20:29] Dagmar: You were in there to begin with
[07:20:32] Chutt: and if you didn't like that, to please wait to sign up
[07:21:04] jblack: Why are all of you guys trying so hard to defend these marketing clauses?
[07:21:13] Chutt: because you have a silly argument =)
[07:21:13] jblack: _that_ is what really creeps me out about all this.
[07:21:13] Dagmar: Because we're literate?
[07:21:25] Dagmar: ...and you can't seem to keep your stuff straight.
[07:21:46] Dagmar: If this is the way things have been going on the mailing list, it's no wonder they've lapsed into silence.
[07:21:47] jblack: Getting a little personal now?
[07:21:48] kormoc: jblack, well, Chutt is on the SD board, I'm helping with the site on a volunteer basis, Dagmar is a friend of the community...
[07:22:02] Dagmar: jblack: In that I am talking about you specifically, yes.
[07:22:21] Dagmar: You were never *re*opted in, yet you claim you were
[07:22:21] Chutt: like i said, full refund or friendly little opt-out boxes
[07:22:48] Dagmar: You fail to compare this privacy policy with any other, yet claim it's "unusually broad" which is simply not the case
[07:22:56] Dagmar: I've had to write these bloody things
[07:23:20] jblack: Ok, well, here's where I'm at. I'm trying to get you make any one of a list of modifications, some of which include me personally paying more money. The problem can be solved by adding one word.
[07:23:35] Dagmar: ORLY?
[07:24:21] jblack: I'm going to keep trying for a few more days. I think I can get you guys to get it. If not, that's when I'll ask the EFF and media involved. With a good explanation to the public, certainly someone will be able to understand and get the point across in a way that you guys can understand.
[07:24:24] Dagmar: You really dont want me taking your arguments apart on the list
[07:24:31] Dagmar: Call Jennifer right now
[07:25:01] jblack: I think that would work too. But if it doesn't work, then I plan on exploring other options.
[07:25:15] Dagmar: She's going to tell you to read other privacy policies, and remind you that NO one is foolish enough to put out a policy that leaves them responsible for what happens to information once it's in someone else's hands.
[07:25:16] Chutt: easier option it to just get your refund
[07:25:18] kormoc: jblack, why would the EFF care? SD isn't violating anything. it's just like any other company and not forcing you to use it
[07:25:51] Dagmar: It's not legally practical to do so, when the company is already bound to deliver up PII to TMS for auditing purposes
[07:25:54] jblack: I think they'd care for two reasons.
[07:26:04] kormoc: jblack, "EFF is a nonprofit group of passionate people ? lawyers, technologists, volunteers, and visionaries ? working to protect your digital rights"
[07:26:15] kormoc: jblack, what digital rights of yours have been taken away?
[07:26:32] scopeuk (scopeuk!n=Scope@213.121.151.142) has quit (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer))
[07:26:48] ** xris thinks it's a little funny that the SD lawyers were referred by EFF people. **
[07:26:55] jblack: I had the right of policy prior to joining a paid relationship with SD. SD is trying to remove that privacy after the fact.
[07:27:00] Dagmar: Yeah there's a great argument... "If you guys won't believe me, I'll go get the EFF and then you'll be sorry."
[07:27:07] jblack: s/policy/privacy.
[07:27:24] Dagmar: jblack: I'm sure they can arrange a refund for you
[07:27:35] xris: jblack: did you even read the original (lack of) policy and SA?
[07:27:35] Chutt: we're offering to give you a _full_ refund. not charging you $5 for the month you've been getting data.
[07:27:43] kormoc: Dagmar, if he doesn't agree by a stated deadline (tomorrow), he'll be forced a full refund
[07:27:54] xris: kormoc: you're off by a day, but close enough
[07:27:59] rooaus (rooaus!n=cameron@ppp59-167-150-52.lns4.mel6.internode.on.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[07:28:13] jblack: That'll get you guys into court.
[07:28:14] kormoc: xris, it's after midnight :P
[07:28:19] xris: oh.
[07:28:19] xris: heh
[07:28:20] Dagmar: jblack: You also overlooked this... "Company reserves the right to change this Policy at any time without prior notice."
[07:28:25] Dagmar: Which is *very* standard.
[07:28:33] jblack: You guys haqve already stated to me, in email, that service will be disabled, not canceled.
[07:28:37] Chutt: jblack, your damages will be about $15.
[07:28:46] jblack: Yeah. Kinda pointless.
[07:28:46] Dagmar: This _breaks_ your apparent claim that you paying money fixes the policy in place for you
[07:28:58] kormoc: jblack, and the difference is?
[07:29:12] xris: jblack: yup. disabled.. but we can't let that sit indefinitely. we *have* to eventually cancel accounts that don't agree to the PP or we can't file taxes, etc.
[07:29:36] Chutt: well, we could just assume people agree, like every other website out there.
[07:29:53] jblack: Yeah, I'm looking for the recent case that says that just changing policies doesn't count.
[07:29:55] xris: Chutt: yeah. always wondered why no one else picks up on that.
[07:30:10] jblack: Someone did. They're not enforceable. I can't find it right now though.
[07:30:19] kormoc: I think really jblack should just deal with the eff and talk to sd's lawyers
[07:30:42] Dagmar: The current legal status is that you generally get 30 days to call it quits on the agreement, which of course means you won't be using SD anymore
[07:30:49] Dagmar: Cell phone companies do this constantly
[07:31:16] Chutt: hey, neat, the ps3 finally found my wife's pictures
[07:31:35] xris: Dagmar: cell phone companies try to push it to 15 days sometimes. some new gov't bill is trying to mandate it at 30
[07:31:42] Dagmar: It's how you get out of a cell provider agreement without paying early termination, you simply wait until they change some tiny part of the agreement, and then you get a 30 day window to get out of the whole thing because the contract you signed off on is not the contract you're being held to now
[07:32:02] Chutt: Dagmar, has to be a materially adverse change for them to agree
[07:32:07] Dagmar: xris: Interesting, I've not heard of any of them using just 15 days
[07:32:22] jblack: All I want is the option to keep my phone number and home address private. Barring that, I want the opt-in to more clearly state that SD will never re-opt someone in upon (some penalty). Failing that, I'd like the marking clauses to be removed.
[07:32:24] xris: I forget which one it is.. I remember seeing it when I was shopping for new cell service a few months back
[07:32:34] xris: jblack: phone number is easy.. don't give it to SD.
[07:32:46] xris: home address is already defined by the PP as PII
[07:32:53] Dagmar: You'll never get that penalty clause
[07:33:10] Dagmar: No one ever makes those sorts of promises, and it would just beg to be abused
[07:33:49] jblack: xris: I'll be fine with that, if you change 1.a from "required" to "optionally"
[07:34:03] xris: jblack: pay attention to "for example"
[07:34:18] jblack: And as I said before, I'll put down the money to for the lawyer to do it.
[07:34:27] Tanthrix: Chutt: You sure about the cell phone thing? Seems that you should have the right to decline a change just if you damn well don't like it
[07:34:39] xris: jblack: it'd be wasted money, but you're welcome to do so.
[07:34:41] Dagmar: jblack: Which is one of the reasons non-profits like this don't do so well
[07:35:14] jblack: Seriously. LIke I said before, tell me how much I need to donate in order to get the satisfaction that I'm looking for.
[07:35:24] Chutt: Tanthrix, my brother tried to get out of a verizon contract due to a text messaging increase. he never had used any text messaging, so they wouldn't let him. then they just offered to pay the difference on his bill for a year.
[07:35:26] xris: Dagmar: btw, thanks for offering some sanity... some of us involved in writing the PP (the main reason we can't comment on it) have been wishing people would step up and explain some of those kinds of things.
[07:35:29] Dagmar: Tanthrix: Generally lawyers are lazy. Moving commas around, checking spelling and so forth, doesn't count as a material change
[07:35:49] Dagmar: xris: Before the dot-com boom I worked for Deloitte & Touche
[07:36:04] Dagmar: We had to actually come up with a privacy policy for our own internal website
[07:36:22] kormoc: jblack, you're better off just looking else where for your data.
[07:36:24] jblack: Would you guys change that one word for me, if I donate a thousand tonight/
[07:36:27] xris: jblack: at the moment, no amount of donation will get the PP changed or exclude you from its policies. The only way for you to "get out" is to cancel your account.
[07:36:31] Dagmar: I swear to god it felt like other departments were making us jump through hoops becuase they had some paranoid idea of what the internal security dept. was for
[07:36:56] xris: jblack: if you don't like SD, there *is* a for-profit competitor out there offering data. Granted, I haven't seen their PP yet.
[07:37:00] kormoc: jblack, SD is non-profit. attempting to 'bribe' them into chaging things doesn't really work...
[07:37:01] jblack: kormoc: There isn't anywhere else that I can find. That's why I'd rather chip in a thousand bucks, then spend the next eternity fighting a war of escalation with a screen scraper.
[07:37:12] kormoc: jblack, there are other places offering it
[07:37:14] Tanthrix: Chutt: That seems unfair, and my gut feeling says it wouldn't hold up in court. Commas / grammar / etc.. I can see not being material enough though
[07:37:14] jblack: xris: Oh?
[07:37:43] xris: jblack: they're a competitor, I'm not going to give you their name. They're also windows-only, but may eventually get a an xmltv grabber/converter of some sort.
[07:38:03] Dagmar: Tanthrix: Dunno, man... It's pretty easy to argue that a change to something you never used before is unlikely to be able to affect you
[07:38:20] Chutt: yup
[07:38:23] jblack: Oh, ok. I thnk I know who you're talking about. That's not a workable solution within the timeframe that I'm stuck working in
[07:38:31] Dagmar: Technically it's a breach, but that's a better example of weird non-material changes than I'd have thought ot
[07:39:34] Chutt: even moreso since they said they'd credit him the difference
[07:39:49] jblack: Ok, so, you guys said the EFF were involved in the pp?
[07:39:50] Dagmar: I like that bit.  :)
[07:40:05] xris: jblack: no.. but people related to the EFF helped us find the law firm that did.
[07:40:15] xris: personal recommendations from (former) EFF lawyers, etc.
[07:40:19] Tanthrix: Dagmar: True, but still, just because you haven't used something doesn't mean that you never will. I mean, if you signed up for AAA and they changed their rates on towing, it would still be an issue even if you had never needed their towing service before.
[07:40:49] Dagmar: Tanthrix: Yeah, but that's also a service you'd be _using_. AAA membership more or less sits there doing nothing if you don't need a tow
[07:41:13] xris: jblack: I don't actually know all of the details — was too busy doing technical stuff. I was given a list of potential lawyers/firms, and we voted based on merit/etc to get the ones we're using now.
[07:41:19] Tanthrix: Nevertheless, it's a clever possible way to get out of a cell contract early – I'll have to remember that should I ever need it.
[07:41:24] Dagmar: Tanthrix: If you've gone for an age not using text-messaging, it's not like you were just waiting for the day when you just might need it while you still use voice messaging
[07:41:36] xris: Tanthrix: lots of stuff like that on howardforums.com
[07:41:50] jblack: I'll try to contact them today, and see if there's something they can help discuss this and get things settled
[07:42:23] Tanthrix: Dagmar: True, though it still sits wrong with me since it is a meaningful part of a contract, unlike a comma change.
[07:42:41] Dagmar: Tanthrix: if they'd pushed it they probably could have gotten out of the contract anyway
[07:42:56] Tanthrix: xris: Good to know, thanks.
[07:43:04] Dagmar: Cell phone companies tend to operate internally on a lot of CYA
[07:43:06] Tanthrix: I've been very happy with Verizon thankfully.
[07:43:25] jblack: Check out consumerist.com, btw. They're a site that tracks things like people get out of cell phone contracts when sms fees change due to material changes of contract.
[07:43:26] Dagmar: Middle management will generally err on the side of caution over a couple hunnerd bucks if it seriously seems like someone's going to sue over it
[07:43:51] Chutt: consumerist always blames the person emailing in with a complaint =)
[07:43:57] Dagmar: hehe
[07:43:59] Dagmar: yep
[07:44:22] jblack: They're not always kind to dunderheads. I read the site religiously though.
[07:45:11] jblack: I think, but can't find, an article that I think that was there about the recent case that said eulas and privacy policys can't just be silently changed on a website; that it's not enough to just tell the user "it's not here". Damned if I can find it though
[07:45:24] Dagmar: That's only because it's hard to douse someone with gasoline and set them alight over the internet
[07:45:39] jblack: pardon, also not enough to just say "there's a new one".
[07:46:05] kormoc: jblack, it wasn't silently changed on you
[07:46:07] Dagmar: jblack: So you get your $15 back
[07:46:18] kormoc: jblack, you've been notified at least twice by email by your own account
[07:46:18] ** SiD3WiNDR just burst into tears laughing about SD ending up in court =) **
[07:46:25] Dagmar: You're wanting a bunch of crap that is *not* possible
[07:46:25] jblack: Well, I'm not griping it wasn't silently changed.
[07:46:34] jblack: sid3: Yeah, that's a bit silly.
[07:46:45] kormoc: jblack, the case never said you couldn't change it
[07:46:52] jblack: dag.. how exactly would you refund the money?
[07:47:02] ** xris goes back to watching the SD signup numbers continue to grow **
[07:47:12] kormoc: jblack, the money will be refunded to you via paypal
[07:47:15] Dagmar: jblack: Well, if you refused to provide them with any PII you're pretty screwed
[07:47:32] Dagmar: I'm thinking kormoc's answer is probably entirely correct, although woefully unentertaining
[07:48:14] xris: jblack: I'm looking at your user record right now.. am happy to cancel your account if you want me to.
[07:48:25] Dagmar: Phreaknic has been through this sort of thing a few times
[07:48:30] jblack: I think it's clear that I want service. :)
[07:48:33] Dagmar: At least no one's throwing beer cans
[07:48:42] xris: jblack: just checking.
[07:49:02] kormoc: jblack, you have two options. You can agree and get service, or you can decline and not get service.
[07:49:17] Dagmar: I think mainly we're just assuming DHS won't ever come down and ask us to provide them with a list of convention attendees
[07:49:32] kormoc: why do you feel that you can change it to meet your (one person, one single person out of thousands) wants?

[07:51:50] xris: jblack: there are a few users upset about things (forums, mythtv mailing lists)... and we've cancelled a few accounts for users who requested it.
[07:52:06] Chutt: people were upset over the mythtv mailing lists?

[07:58:24] jblack: So, thanks.
[08:00:54] jblack: Anybody have any myth problems?
[08:01:12] xris: oh?
[08:01:16] ** xris hopes it's about mythweb **
[08:01:40] Dagmar: jblack: How many you want?
[08:01:54] jblack: How about one for now
[08:02:03] ** xris has myth problems. no ethernet driver for his new mobo **
[08:02:03] Dagmar: I'm about to start chasing 0.20.2-fixes, if that tree's valid
[08:02:13] xris: Dagmar: most packagers pull from there
[08:02:28] jblack: Yeah. I pulled down the bazaar branch for trunk last night.
[08:02:33] jblack: I haven't gotten the two other branches yet.
[08:02:45] Dagmar: jblack: I've not checked if selecting programs that were on in the past breaks things still, but going from LiveTV into the program guide and back crashes the whole machine again
[08:02:59] Dagmar: I'm figuring it's more XvMC funnery
[08:03:25] jblack: That's probably a little over my head at this point.
[08:04:09] Dagmar: Yeah, I'm not bothering anyone about it because at this point, the OS I have on that box is below my "giving a crap" threshold, in that it's Slackware 10.2 and I really need to upgrade it to Slack 12 before I think about bothering anyone over a crach bug
[08:04:45] flindet (flindet!n=flindet@c-67-172-191-208.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) has quit ("Konversation terminated!")
[08:05:00] jblack: It works here.
[08:05:03] Dagmar: ...especially considering being 10.2 it means it's using XFree86 and not Xorg, and the nVidia driver is definitely prone to little differences like that tripping a few things up
[08:05:26] jblack: livetv -> m -> guide -> esc ?
[08:05:56] Dagmar: Yeah, I'm figuring it's an issue specific to my box
[08:06:12] Dagmar: It was the reason I originally jumped from 0.20 to 0.20-fixes
[08:06:15] jblack: is the frontend reporting anything upon it's death?
[08:06:30] Dagmar: jblack: The front end is dead in a way that makes me say "driver level evils"
[08:06:34] jblack: If not, did you consider rebuilding with debugging symbols, turning cores on, and getting a backtrace?
[08:06:35] Chutt: if it's crashing the box, it's the x driver
[08:06:36] Dagmar: It can't report anything.
[08:06:50] jblack: Oh, the display is crashing?
[08:06:54] Chutt: well, that's the most likely thing.
[08:06:57] Dagmar: jblack: Something akin to a blocking call is happening
[08:07:01] Dagmar: Way, way deep in the machine
[08:07:08] Dagmar: It'll respond to pings, but nothing else
[08:07:17] Dagmar: Like, a connection to the sshd simply stops
[08:07:23] Dagmar: Socket completes, no banner is sent
[08:07:36] Dagmar: THat's just bizarre enough for me to figure it's an issue in kernelspace
[08:07:38] jblack: Yeah... that's um... probably the driver taking the kernel out.
[08:08:53] Dagmar: Yeah I figure after I get a chance to re-up everything to 0day status, it'll probably stop doing that
[08:09:06] jblack: I wonder if os-x stops talking to the filesystems in the same way that the kernel does. If so, you could verify it by logging to a file for a long period of time, letting it sit a long while, and resetting the machine
[08:09:17] Dagmar: I'm just kinda pulling my hair out with other things right now or I'd have already found a public place to stick MythTV binaries for Slackware
[08:09:42] jblack: pardon? Slackware? I had the impression you were referring to os-x
[08:09:42] Dagmar: jblack: Disk light never comes on once it's in that state
[08:09:53] jblack: Yeah. Probably paniced kernel then.
[08:09:58] kormoc: Dagmar, magic sysrq keys do anything?
[08:10:13] Dagmar: kormoc: No PS2 keyboard on it, so I've not had a chance to try
[08:10:19] Dagmar: God knows that seldom works with USB
[08:10:57] jblack: Do you have a serial port on the machine? you could probably hook up another machine and catch the panic that way
[08:11:00] Dagmar: I was really trying to find something that would get me info, but it's seizing hard-core
[08:11:28] Dagmar: jblack: Doing it ssh'd into the box isn't getting me anywhere... Two monitors so I could have the text console up didn't get me anywhere
[08:11:47] jblack: mmm
[08:12:18] Dagmar: I'm not worrying about it. I'm sure that once I wipe that machine and redo it all the issue will go away
[08:23:09] rooaus: SD has dropped it's price... $15/6months, wish you were offering data in Australia.

[13:12:30] GoalieManPat: ok so keep it all on the same system
[13:16:34] GoalieManPat: thanks sid
[13:17:50] GreyFoxx: GoalieManPat: well actually they don't have to be ON the frontend, they just have to be reacahable
[13:18:14] GreyFoxx: so you can have them on the backend but nfs/samba mounted to the proper location on the frontend so the emulator running on the frontend can read them
[13:19:12] GreyFoxx: So for example, I have /data/mythtv /data/video and /data/emu on my masterbackend+fileserver and they are also nfs mounted to each of my frontends. So everything sees all files in the exact same location

[13:36:46] hendrixski: beata, trunk probably has more cutting edge features... some of which may not work yet
[13:37:40] hendrixski: that's usually how open source projects work... it's possible to go all the way to the front-lines... but things can blow up on the front-lines
[13:38:05] GreyFoxx: hendrixski: the prescaling is also just verifying that the inmages are there and scaled. So the anem of it could be changed as it makes people assume it's rescaling them each time

[13:39:16] beata: hendrixski thanks
[13:39:22] hendrixski: GreyFoxx, ah, so it's not *actually* taking different sized images and rescaling them, it's just making sure that the ones there are already scaled properly?
[13:39:32] GreyFoxx: yes
[13:39:40] GreyFoxx: It scales them the first time
[13:39:46] GreyFoxx: but after it's just verifying them

[15:20:43] georgek: I have an issue with mythfilldatabase and xml data from schedules direct, in that in order to map the schedules direct data to the mythtv's channels, it uses channums. My channums are offset by 10000, so instead of channel 300, I have channel 10300.
[15:22:16] Dibblah: preset AFAIK only affects --update
[15:22:23] georgek: ...and my channels are already created, I wanted to rule out if the mythfilldatabase --preset param was usefull.

[15:23:35] Dagmar: It's video output is more limited than what you'd get from even a $25 nVidia card

[15:23:48] coreyo: scuze me, I think the 250 is what I was looking for
[15:23:50] Dibblah: No, it's not – Not when it's used correctly.

[15:24:21] Dagmar: It was replaced by the 150 quite some time ago.
[15:24:21] coreyo: yes, I will have room for exactly 1 expansion slot
[15:24:26] Dibblah: The 500 is 2 150s on one card.
[15:24:36] coreyo: ahh, okay
[15:24:53] coreyo: so the 250/350's were the same chipsets, and the 150's and 500's are the same chipset?
[15:25:09] tjcarter: Slyboots: Sorry, failed to build.. It doesn't like my Qt again (which is funny because the whole POINT of osx-packager.pl is that it downloads, patches, and compiles a working Qt)
[15:25:11] Dibblah: It's better in a couple of ways – Since it's isolated from the main PCI bus by an on-board bridge chip, there's less chance of a VIA motherboard issue.
[15:25:28] Dibblah: coreyo: Technically, they're all the same chipset.
[15:25:34] Dibblah: Just different variants.
[15:26:27] coreyo: is there a well-supported dual-capture/encoder card that will do onboard mpeg4 encoding?
[15:26:42] Dibblah: Given an interlaced SD source, the 350 *can* give better output than an Nvidia card.
[15:27:08] Dibblah: coreyo: Not exactly. There's the USB option, though...
[15:27:09] Dagmar: On the 500, well, provided you don't have an exceptionally retarded motherboard, like say, the ASUS A8V
[15:27:31] tjcarter: Slyboots: I'm attempting to sort it now
[15:28:45] coreyo: Dibblah, is it dual tuner, dual encoder, and is it very reliable ... or would the 350 or 500 still be a better option?
[15:28:46] tjcarter: Dagmar: what's the deal with the A8V and the 500?
[15:29:03] Dibblah: the 350 is aware of top/bottom field, doesn't require deinterlacing (it's not progressive at any stage), etc.
[15:29:17] Dibblah: Dibblah: No, but you buy two boxes ;)
[15:29:27] Dagmar: tjcarter: The motherboard is apparently too dim to realize it should be looking for what's on the other side of a _particular_ PCI bridge
[15:29:32] Dibblah: Plextor convertx or similar.
[15:30:01] Dagmar: tjcarter: The PVR-500 has it's own, which means there will be two present when the machine boots, which means that when it comes time for that motherboard to initialize the disk controller, full stop.
[15:30:07] Dibblah: Dagmar: Ah. That explains why my dumb PCI bridge card didn't work.
[15:30:35] Dagmar: I was a little pissed when I found this out
[15:30:40] tjcarter: Dagmar: that's ...
[15:30:45] Dagmar: Otherwise the A8V is a pretty cool board
[15:30:50] Dibblah: Didn't investigate – Just invested in a better motherboard.
[15:30:50] tjcarter: ASUS produced that?!
[15:31:06] Dagmar: In their defense there are not very many cards with their own PCI bridge

[15:31:59] Dibblah: Yeah, that was my thought on seeing it...
[15:32:04] Dibblah: coreyo: No.
[15:32:19] Dibblah: The 350 has one tuner, one encoder.
[15:32:21] Dagmar: The A8V uses Marvell
[15:32:31] Dibblah: Dagmar: Ah. No, it was the M2V...
[15:32:33] fryfrog: coreyo: the 350 is the one with in and out
[15:32:35] coreyo: Dibblah, is there a dual version of that?
[15:32:38] fryfrog: the 500 is the one with 2 ins
[15:32:39] Dibblah: No.
[15:32:42] coreyo: ahh, I see
[15:32:47] coreyo: then it's probably not an option for me :(
[15:33:09] Dibblah: I was meaning go USB with a Plextor convertx or similar.
[15:33:13] coreyo: so technically, 2 dual 350's is probably some of the best quality you can get?
[15:33:16] Dibblah: mpeg4 encoding, etc...
[15:33:24] fryfrog: coreyo: no, it is a waste of money
[15:33:29] Dibblah: coreyo: You mean 500s.
[15:33:47] fryfrog: Get an nvidia card with tv out and a PVR500
[15:33:48] coreyo: Dibblah, you said earlier that the 350 *can* give better quality

[15:34:19] Dibblah: The 500 is about equal on picture quality now.
[15:34:32] coreyo: from the video card
[15:34:37] fryfrog: coreyo: if you are using DVI output, screw the 350 then :)
[15:34:42] fryfrog: just get a PVR500 or 150s
[15:34:43] coreyo: ahh, okay
[15:34:44] Dibblah: Used to be much worse – The TV decoder onboard was badly misunderstood.
[15:34:51] Dagmar: The 350 doesn't have nVidia's automagical interlacing support
[15:34:58] Dibblah: Grrr.
[15:35:18] Dibblah: It doesn't need it – The picture is *interlaced* and remains interlaced.

[15:41:58] coreyo: well, the pvr 500 is all of those things, if you consider you get 2 tuners

[15:45:31] Dagmar: Mine works fine
[15:45:42] coreyo: interesting, so the PVR 500 has only a single coax-in, and the split is made on the board? I guess that's generally really nice (unless you were specifically wanting two different sources).
[15:45:49] Dagmar: Dunno what ya'll's problem is, aside from maybe using the wrong firmware

[15:49:41] tjcarter: I solved it by not using the tuner ;)
[15:49:49] tjcarter: am planning to stop using both tuners actually

[18:42:06] Slyboots: heh, Thanks :D
[18:42:07] tjcarter: Slyboots: you get more themes than are standard

[18:42:38] tjcarter: http://yumi.bluecherry.net/~tjcarter/MythFrontend.zip
[18:43:00] tjcarter: Yeah, Pear-ody-wide and the blootube themes
[18:43:13] Slyboots: I think my backend runs Blootube

[18:45:30] tjcarter: Slyboots: I am using this FE.
[18:46:01] Slyboots: MythFrontend for the mac
[18:47:24] tjcarter: Slyboots: Two bugs: under $MYSTERY_OS, having guide set to use alpha blend transparency results in a font glitch, and if you press s while in a recording, guide appears UNDER video instead of on top
[18:47:45] tjcarter: This latter bug affects all 0.20 FEs I have ever seen, though the PPC 0.19 FE worked fine
[18:47:48] Slyboots: Ooh, Second one is nasty

[18:59:18] tjcarter: MythFrontend trunk
[18:59:25] juski: XLV: Laganas, Zakynthos
[18:59:32] Slyboots: Its downloading, very... slowly
[18:59:37] Slyboots: Ask again in 3 hours
[18:59:43] Slyboots: :(
[18:59:43] tjcarter: The problem's your end then, not mine  ;)
[18:59:53] ** Slyboots connection is doing nothing else ;) **
[18:59:54] XLV: juski, liked it?
[19:00:03] tjcarter: Do you have wintendos on your network?
[19:00:15] juski: XLV: yeah love Greece. Love the hospitality, the food, the weather...
[19:00:18] Slyboots: No
[19:00:33] tjcarter: Maybe your ISP is just sucking right now?
[19:00:45] Slyboots: Hm, Possibly ;)
[19:01:02] tjcarter: or it could be that the zip is 117 MB(!)
[19:01:23] tjcarter: Blame juski  ;)
[19:01:33] Slyboots: Yea, ut its downloading at 9k/sec :D
[19:01:37] juski: 117MB? there's a whole mythtv distro that takes up less room than that
[19:01:47] tjcarter: It's all his themey super awesomeness

[19:02:03] Slyboots: Woo! Superthemey!
[19:02:04] juski: oh – and FYI anyone thinking of naming a mythtv distro 'MythOS' – forget it. there's a nice lager by that name :P
[19:02:06] tjcarter: juski: It is a whole mythtv dist =)
[19:02:25] tjcarter: juski: Qt included
[19:02:48] juski: my wife pointed out the fact we were drinking Mythos the whole holiday. duh!
[19:02:53] tjcarter: but it's larger than the average MythFrontend because I have stuff like blootube installed
[19:03:14] juski: blootube isn't the greedy theme. blootube-wide on the other hand.. whoah baby
[19:03:32] tjcarter: have that too
[19:03:35] Slyboots: tjcarter: so you just zipped up your entire mythtv directory? :D
[19:03:37] tjcarter: and lite
[19:03:39] juski: and I hope that if you ship -fixes, you don't use the themes from SVN
[19:03:43] tjcarter: Slyboots: Yes, pretty much
[19:03:48] Slyboots: lol
[19:03:51] tjcarter: well, my MythFrontend.app
[19:04:00] Slyboots: :D
[19:04:40] tjcarter: juski: it's trunk
[19:05:05] tjcarter: with blootubes and pear-ody and project grayhem, I think that's all
[19:05:19] juski: that's ok then. in which case I hope you use the themes from SVN ;)
[19:05:27] Slyboots: wlel, mangaed to squeese another 20k/sec from the line
[19:05:37] Slyboots: Which is a massive improvment at least
[19:05:43] tjcarter: blootubes aren't in svn =(
[19:05:47] juski: no point shoving neon-wide in there since pear-ody is so blimmin similar
[19:05:53] juski: tjcarter: yeah them is
[19:06:02] tjcarter: oh? nifty
[19:06:06] juski: tjcarter: just not in the mythtv bit
[19:06:08] tjcarter: I think neon might be there too
[19:06:35] juski: you know how there's /mythtv /mythplugins and /myththemes ? try /themes too
[19:06:56] juski: not a lot of people know they're there yet & that is probably a good thing
[19:06:58] tjcarter: I don't know if myththemes gets included in osx-packager
[19:07:18] juski: you won't find any of my themes in myththemes
[19:07:45] juski: and again that's probably a good thing too
[19:08:06] tjcarter: millions of people using svn to get blootube!
[19:08:31] tjcarter: -wide
[19:08:45] tjcarter: mythtv development would grind to a halt.
[19:08:51] juski: on holiday a thought occurred to me though – I wonder how many people in Greece (the land of mythology) use MythTV ;)
[19:08:53] tjcarter: servers would crash
[19:09:26] juski: dunno about crashing. prolly slow down a lot though

[19:12:42] tjcarter: juski: blootube would look good in charcoal I think
[19:13:06] juski: users who say $theme would look good in $something can go get their own theme design guy
[19:13:43] tjcarter: juski: I'm thinking about greying the background images, you interested in a couple sshots if I do it?
[19:13:50] juski: unless you want to pay. $5000 for a finished theme would about do it, plus upkeep at $200 per hour
[19:14:15] juski: tjcarter: what you do to my themes is none of my business, but if it sucks, make DAMN sure my name is nowhere near it
[19:14:45] tjcarter: juski: I don't plan on it sucking =)
[19:15:10] juski: but – a grey version of blootube-wide? sounds sucky already man
[19:15:37] defaultro: ok
[19:16:00] juski: if a version appears of my stuff that associates itself with my work I might be left with no choice other than to rename or totally withdraw my work
[19:16:02] defaultro: juski, i love the colors of your projectgayhem
[19:16:37] defaultro: i like black and dark gray colors combined with neon yellow/blue/green or orange
[19:16:50] defaultro: like xbox
[19:16:54] juski: blech
[19:16:58] defaultro: :D
[19:17:25] juski: anyway, if my next work every surfaces – i.e. if I ever bother to finish it, it'll make everything else I've ever done look like crap
[19:18:08] juski: but with 8 hungry themes to feed new xml & images, I doubt it'll happen soon. something is gonna have to fall by the wayside
[19:18:30] juski: your money is best bet on the 4:3 ones first
[19:20:01] juski: and you know me guys, that shiny glassy one will happen one day

[19:38:29] Slyboots: heh
[19:39:43] tjcarter: useful thing about trunk (and 0.20.2) is that you no longer have to wait 5 minutes for blootube-wide to scale/cache images every time you start MythFrontend
[19:39:56] tjcarter: It takes about that long.
[19:41:21] Slyboots: Takes about.. 15 seconds to cache but that only happens once so it never realy bothered me

[20:31:15] Eclipsor: yeah

[20:33:15] Eclipsor: I havent had any problems with cable, only when I used captions on broadcast tv
[20:33:42] hobophobe: Over cable, but it's not the fault of myth, it's the captions themselves.. my tv shows them just the same as myth
[20:33:55] hobophobe: just lousy captioning :oP

[20:39:42] Eclipsor: right now I'm using the default provile for medium quality I think it was
[20:40:57] hobophobe: well, you could just make a new profile that's the same except for a few minor tweaks and see how it performs
[20:41:34] hobophobe: like, watch a minute of live tv, then just run mythtranscode on copies of that file with different profiles to see how the quality and size differs based on profile?
[20:42:13] dmz: isn't backend meant to be accessible?
[20:42:16] dmz: i'll try :)

[20:59:28] Kazan: vertex toric XRs
[20:59:45] Kazan: i have 3 diopters of astigmatism in one eye and 3.5 in the other
[20:59:59] Kazan: not to mention about 1.5 of normal near-sightedness
[21:00:29] hobophobe: slowly get used to them, wear like a few hours at most the first few days, and gradually increase the time you wear them for.. that's what they had me do when I first got them anyway
[21:00:36] Kazan: problem i seem mostly to be having is they aren't staying in proper rotational alignment.. so my astigmatism correction comes and goes
[21:01:52] hobophobe: I just want lasik, dammit. that or high performance CCDs connect to my optic nerves :oP
[21:02:05] Kazan: lasik can't completely correct my vision
[21:02:15] hobophobe: but I'd go get a checkup with your doc, make sure everything's kosher if it's givin you trouble

[21:03:24] hobophobe: Probably then, just give your eyes time to get used to them
[21:03:37] Kazan: it's really annoying
[21:03:43] Kazan: for a bit i'll see almost perfectly
[21:03:48] hobophobe: especially things like them moving out of place or rotating, your eyes will adapt to it and it won't happen
[21:03:54] Kazan: then they shift and everything will distort
[21:04:26] hobophobe: my problem when I had rigid gas permeables, my pupils are so big I'd always see the edges
