| [00:02:59] | savageone: | do it in flash |
| [00:03:03] | savageone: | all the interfaces in flash |
| [00:03:28] | kdubya: | well yeah that would be ideal, but that isnt exactly something that could be done easily |
| [00:04:19] | directhex: | savageone, flash *tears* on full-screen. horribly |
| [00:04:42] | directhex: | flash is hand-coded assembly, and i can't imagine running an animation at 1920x1080 |
| [00:04:55] | laga: | don't feed the troll. |
| [00:05:04] | laga: | or at least adjust your irony detectors :) |

| [00:08:49] | kdubya: | well reuse something |

| [00:11:20] | Kernel: | hello all. how do i go about using the new scheduledirect? |
| [00:11:41] | Kernel: | i just installed mythtv on mandriva 2007.1 |
| [00:11:51] | fryfrog: | you just do it :) |
| [00:12:20] | kdubya: | heh |
| [00:12:21] | Kernel: | hmm its still trying to use the old datadirect.webservices.zap2it.com |
| [00:12:43] | fryfrog: | Kernel: is it possible the mandriva rpms (or how ever you installed it) haven't been updated? |
| [00:12:56] | fryfrog: | cause there is/was an update to mythtv to get schedules direct included |
| [00:13:00] | Kernel: | yes completely |
| [00:13:02] | fryfrog: | a 0.20.2 release, I believe |
| [00:13:06] | Kernel: | crap |
| [00:13:18] | fryfrog: | so you are using mandriva's rpms? |
| [00:13:34] | bsdfox__: | anyone know how to remove commercials from a .nuv file? or how to remove commercials before transcoding happens? |
| [00:13:41] | Kernel: | fryfrog: yea. and there not new |
| [00:13:43] | Kernel: | lol |
| [00:13:48] | Kernel: | so im basicly forked. |
| [00:13:52] | fryfrog: | :~( |
| [00:14:02] | Kernel: | yea :-( |
| [00:14:06] | fryfrog: | i don't know if anyone likes mandriva enough to make a build for em |
| [00:14:17] | laga: | complain to the package maintainer then |
| [00:14:31] | kdubya: | haha |
| [00:14:32] | fryfrog: | I might consider moving to a bigger, more popular distro like fedora (if you like rpm) or ubuntu (if you realize rpm is teh suke). |
| [00:14:38] | fryfrog: | yeah, taht is probably the best bet |
| [00:14:42] | bsdfox__: | just compile it from source :P |
| [00:14:47] | kdubya: | pff |
| [00:14:48] | fryfrog: | they may even have rpms already made or something |
| [00:14:49] | kdubya: | compile |
| [00:14:55] | fryfrog: | well, course there is that too :) |
| [00:15:12] | Kernel: | well mandriva is gonna be having a release soon. |
| [00:15:17] | ** bsdfox__ never has problems with out of date packages :) ** | |
| [00:15:22] | Kernel: | i REALY hope itll be updated there. |

| [00:18:56] | bsdfox__: | I can't imagine any reason someone would want to run mandriva |
| [00:18:57] | kdubya: | you got 20.1 |
| [00:19:17] | Kernel: | bsdfox__: its a great distro. |
| [00:19:25] | bsdfox__: | k |
| [00:19:35] | bsdfox__: | enjoy your schedule direct support next year |
| [00:19:36] | laga: | bsdfox__: i can't imagine why someone would keep asking the same question over and over again :) |

| [01:33:00] | Ferrari: | mythTV at Nokia N800 is cool |
| [01:33:24] | Rain_man: | will mythtv accept keying in 4 digit channel # like 4000 |
| [01:34:02] | Rain_man: | i only make it to 3 digits and it tune to the 3 gigit channel |
| [01:35:42] | fryfrog: | i think you are answer your own question :( |
| [01:35:54] | fryfrog: | your myth system has more than 999 chans? |
| [01:35:56] | Rain_man: | thats to bad |
| [01:36:12] | Rain_man: | yes |
| [01:36:41] | fryfrog: | what version you using? -fixes, -head (svn) or a "real" release? |
| [01:36:52] | Rain_man: | svn |
| [01:36:59] | fryfrog: | hummm |
| [01:37:06] | fryfrog: | you check the bug track for a listing of this bug? |
| [01:37:14] | fryfrog: | can you tune to say 999 and then chan-up to 1000? |
| [01:37:34] | fryfrog: | ie: is it a channel entry bug or is myth *really* limited to 999 chans? |
| [01:37:58] | Rain_man: | yes i can channel up to any channel |
| [01:38:26] | Rain_man: | 14515 is my checked out svn |
| [01:39:01] | fryfrog: | ah |
| [01:39:10] | fryfrog: | well, as a work around... i suggest you don't watch live tv :) |
| [01:39:23] | Rain_man: | lol |
| [01:39:32] | Rain_man: | tell the wife that |
| [01:39:34] | Rain_man: | :) |
| [01:39:40] | fryfrog: | do have multiple sources? like cable, ota and sat or something? |
| [01:39:42] | jams: | and using the program guide works? |
| [01:39:52] | fryfrog: | i'm curious how you have 999+ channels |
| [01:40:01] | Rain_man: | yes i have about 8 sats and ota |
| [01:40:11] | fryfrog: | ah |
| [01:40:29] | pete: | "I have so many satelite connections that I use "about" when describing their number" |
| [01:40:31] | Rain_man: | program guide will freeze if i move to quickly |
| [01:40:31] | fryfrog: | I'd file a bug report for sure, its possible no one has simply run into that bug. |
| [01:40:57] | Rain_man: | ok, ill do that |
| [01:41:07] | fryfrog: | It might be a simple code change in the portion that is listening to the channel change numbers, when it hits 3 it just goes |
| [01:41:14] | fryfrog: | might be as simple as changing that to a 4 |
| [01:41:30] | fryfrog: | but then to *fast* change you'd prolly need to do 0001 or 1 + enter |
| [01:41:37] | fryfrog: | or 1 then wait :) |
| [01:42:00] | fryfrog: | the trick is finding that in the source as someone who doesn't know the source (for example, like me) |
| [01:42:13] | Rain_man: | or me |

| [01:43:51] | Rain_man: | ill file a ticket, then im gonna sit here and vegitate for a few weeks, letting my brain cool off :) |
| [01:44:06] | pete: | uh |
| [01:44:13] | pete: | looks like there is a config option for it |

| [02:33:41] | thread: | how do you handle this now? .. |
| [02:34:09] | thread: | doesn't everyone have to switch over to something like this now that labs.zap2it.com is gone? |
| [02:34:11] | GreyFoxx: | I use schedulesdirect.org as my source and mythfilldatabase grabs it just like it to use to do with zap2it's stuff |
| [02:34:24] | GreyFoxx: | thread, no, most are using SD |
| [02:34:25] | thread: | oh yea? is it free? |
| [02:34:32] | thread: | didn't realize there was an alternative... |
| [02:34:35] | GreyFoxx: | no, $20 a year |
| [02:34:54] | thread: | ah |
| [02:34:54] | GreyFoxx: | IT's a not for profit formed by xmltv head dev, myth devs and some from other projects |
| [02:35:04] | GreyFoxx: | price goes down as more sign up |
| [02:35:10] | thread: | ah |
| [02:35:10] | GreyFoxx: | it was $15 for 3 months to start |
| [02:35:13] | GreyFoxx: | down to $20 a year now |
| [02:35:18] | thread: | the import worked :) |
| [02:35:26] | GreyFoxx: | cool |
| [02:35:57] | GreyFoxx: | Most of us don't wanna deal with scrapers and such, and the switch to SD was pretty much change 2 csettings and you were done (assuming you had a new enough myth version that is) |

| [02:37:01] | Kernel: | hello all ive installed mythtv from source and im wondering whats the best way to go about running the backend... ie have it auto start at boot and what user i should run it under |
| [02:37:02] | thread: | yeah |
| [02:37:35] | thread: | thanks for the help, GreyFoxx |
| [02:37:49] | GreyFoxx: | Kernel: You will want to either create an initscript or add a mythbackend --daemon line to your distros initscripts |
| [02:37:51] | GreyFoxx: | thread np |
| [02:38:30] | Kernel: | hmm ok if i use the -daemon option....what user will it start under? |
| [02:38:54] | GreyFoxx: | kernel; By default it would run as root from the initscripts unless you tell it otherwise |

| [02:46:58] | GreyFoxx: | just_joe: What kind of capture card ? |
| [02:47:04] | just_joe: | pvr150 |
| [02:47:19] | GreyFoxx: | Ok, Your sound card has nothing to do with audio when recording from that |
| [02:47:32] | GreyFoxx: | so even if your soundoutput is messed up it wont affect the recording itself |
| [02:47:36] | just_joe: | so i should NOT mess with it until after the recording is ove |
| [02:47:38] | just_joe: | over |
| [02:47:48] | GreyFoxx: | hehe personally I wouldn't :) |
| [02:47:50] | just_joe: | whew |
| [02:47:53] | just_joe: | i sure wont |
| [02:48:00] | GreyFoxx: | but as a test go to a commandline and do a |
| [02:48:06] | GreyFoxx: | cat /dev/video0 > file.mpg |
| [02:48:19] | GreyFoxx: | wait 20 seconds and hit CTRL-C |
| [02:48:28] | GreyFoxx: | then copy the file.mpg to another mach and try to play it |
| [02:48:36] | GreyFoxx: | assuming the audio is ok then you should be fine :) |
| [02:48:54] | GreyFoxx: | and I also assume your backend isn't currently recording something :) |
| [02:49:37] | just_joe: | 11 minutes is kind of a crazy hmm under sound preferences i hit test and it makes noise |
| [02:49:46] | just_joe: | yeah it is i just saw that |

| [04:57:35] | defaultro: | it's serial based |
| [04:57:46] | EnterUserName: | darn |
| [04:58:00] | defaultro: | i just followed the schematic diagram at lirc.org |
| [04:58:54] | defaultro: | The receiver i built was awesome but the transmitter is not good |
| [04:59:12] | defaultro: | transmitter works but it's weak. Don't know why. I bought the good ir though |
| [04:59:18] | EnterUserName: | sigh |
| [04:59:26] | EnterUserName: | there all about 40 bucks. maybe ill give it a try |
| [04:59:29] | defaultro: | so transmitter is just collecting dust in basement |
| [04:59:30] | EnterUserName: | to build my own |
| [04:59:43] | defaultro: | i think it cost me $17 all in all |
| [04:59:55] | bsdfox: | anyone use a user job to transcode? and if so how do you deal with updating the database for filename extension changes (.mpg -> .nuv) |
| [04:59:57] | defaultro: | for the transmitter, I will just buy next time |
| [05:01:19] | EnterUserName: | ya i bouht that |
| [05:02:43] | EnterUserName: | im googling the devices supported from lirc no |
| [05:04:12] | EnterUserName: | the problem with some of these usb ones is they go right to your computer i want one with a cord to trail near my tv |
| [05:09:41] | clever[rev]: | im getting an odd performance problem with mythtv lately |
| [05:09:54] | clever[rev]: | the X server is using massive ammounts of system(kernel space) cpu usage |
| [05:09:56] | clever[rev]: | % time seconds usecs/call calls errors syscall |
| [05:09:56] | clever[rev]: | ------ ----------- ----------- --------- --------- ---------------- |
| [05:09:56] | clever[rev]: | 79.21 0.711459 8 91029 gettimeofday |
| [05:10:02] | clever[rev]: | and calling gettimeofday alot |
| [05:11:53] | clever[rev]: | when playing a video in mplayer the gettimeofday is uses a great deal less |

| [05:19:56] | clever[rev]: | my setup pulls sound form /dev/dsp so i wouldnt get sound from /dev/video |

| [05:22:00] | Rommie (Rommie!n=Grecko@75.152.109.201) has joined #mythtv-users | |
| [05:22:31] | Rommie: | Hey all. Quick question – is the video delay caused by mythtv itself, or is it inherent with cards that do mpeg encoding onboard? |
| [05:23:05] | just_joe_: | yeah i have a pvr150 |
| [05:23:08] | kormoc: | Rommie, http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Frequent . . . y_changes.3F |
| [05:23:13] | EnterUserName: | how do you use USB-UIRT with lirc? |
| [05:23:55] | xris: | Rommie: the correct answer is "yes" |
| [05:25:25] | Rommie: | I understand that myth caches to disc for the PVR functions to work – I'm just wondering (before I'm able to go to the box and try this out), if using mplayer to display the svideo input will have a delay as well |
| [05:25:29] | Netslayer (Netslayer!n=chris@208.66.26.82) has joined #mythtv-users | |
| [05:25:38] | Netslayer: | anyone running appleTV with 2.6.22 here? |
| [05:26:02] | kormoc: | Rommie, depends on the card |
| [05:26:24] | Rommie: | Hauppauge 150 |
| [05:26:28] | kormoc: | then yes |
| [05:27:18] | Rommie: | My old frame grabber died tonight, so I need a way to pipe my DVD's video through my machine to the projector... guess I need to search for an old framegrabber agian |
| [05:27:33] | just_joe_: | oh der... brain was not quite there |
| [05:27:49] | kormoc: | Rommie, if you use myth to play the dvd, you won't get a delay |
| [05:27:58] | Tanthrix: | Yah, why not do that? |
| [05:28:08] | just_joe_: | yes hauppauge wintv-pvr 150 |
| [05:29:25] | defaultro: | i'm recompiling mythplugins and it's complaining at mythweather |
| [05:29:39] | defaultro: | it's saying "WARNING! The weather data acquisition is broken due to changes at the source." |
| [05:29:42] | Rommie: | My machine's onboard optical audio out isn't supported by the linux drivers, and I'm out of PCI slots to put a new card in. |
| [05:29:53] | just_joe_: | so it records fine in mythtv, im playing scrubs with vlc right now. but playback has no audio dvd playing has no audio etc |
| [05:30:09] | Rommie: | Not to mention the fact that having a changer is way nicer than a single DVD drive, and tends to scratch my DVDs less. |
| [05:30:23] | kormoc: | just_joe_, did you run the frontend in a term window and see what it says? |
| [05:31:00] | Tanthrix: | Rommie: So the quality loss you get from converting your dvd video from analog to digital to analog again pointlessly is less of a big deal than not having digital audio out? |
| [05:31:52] | Rommie: | Tanthrix: My eyes aren't as good as my ears – so yes :) |
| [05:31:56] | xris: | Rommie: pvr-150 has about a half-to-one-second delay in the encoder |
| [05:31:57] | just_joe_: | no good idea |
| [05:32:27] | Tanthrix: | Rommie: Hehe. Anyway, doesn't your projector have more inputs? If not, it would be trivial to find or built a switch box, and you'd get better quality. |
| [05:33:16] | Rommie: | Tanthrix: I'm holding off on running any new cables to the projector until we take care of our mouse problem – cables are just to expensive to replace all the time... |
| [05:34:01] | Tanthrix: | Mice, as in furry live creatures chewing on your cables? |
| [05:34:08] | Rommie: | Yep |
| [05:34:13] | Tanthrix: | That sucks. |
| [05:34:18] | Rommie: | Very much so. |
| [05:35:25] | Rommie: | My current VGA cable looks like swiss cheese (swiss is the one with all the holdes in it, right? :)) |
| [05:35:43] | kormoc: | might not wanna buy cheese flavored cables in the future :P |
| [05:37:53] | just_joe_: | hmm it says something is currently using /dev/dsp |
| [05:37:57] | Rommie: | Do you get noticeably bettery quality video going with component (converted to D-Sub to plug into the projector) over going svideo? |
| [05:38:18] | just_joe_: | how do you check that? |
| [05:38:45] | Rommie: | lsof /dev/dsp |
| [05:39:04] | Tanthrix: | Rommie: Yes, if your output is progressive. |
| [05:39:34] | just_joe_: | lsof /dev/dsp returns nothing (run from root) |
| [05:40:06] | Rommie: | Tanthrix: Component is native 16:9, right? |
| [05:40:16] | Tanthrix: | Rommie: Though, if you don't notice/care about the difference between your DVDs, and your dvds converted to analog, then digital, then analog again, you won't notice a difference ;) |
| [05:40:20] | Rommie: | just_joe_: lsof /dev/snd/* |
| [05:40:33] | Rommie: | Tanthrix: Kinda what I'm thinking :P |
| [05:40:35] | Tanthrix: | Rommie: Component isn't native anything – it, like VGA/DVI, can support many different resolutions. |
| [05:40:53] | just_joe_: | ahh |
| [05:41:07] | Rommie: | Tanthrix: Ok, was just reading something and it said component was native 16:9 and shouldn't be used for 4:3 content :) |
| [05:41:32] | just_joe_: | mixer_app /dev/snd/controlC0 |
| [05:41:56] | just_joe_: | firefox-b /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p |
| [05:42:01] | just_joe_: | firefox-b /dev/snd/timer |
| [05:42:06] | Tanthrix: | Rommie: Regardless, it's stupid not to run your setup at its optimum setup just because of cables. Need to get your money's worth out of your setup, and cables are cheap if purchased from the right places. |
| [05:42:12] | just_joe_: | firefox-b /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p |
| [05:42:15] | just_joe_: | thats it |
| [05:42:56] | Rommie: | So, firefox is using it |
| [05:43:45] | Rommie: | Tanthrix: To be honest, I highly doubt that my projector's output will be any different with svideo or component – its just not a high quality unit. |
| [05:44:02] | just_joe_: | oh! |
| [05:44:26] | Tanthrix: | Rommie: This may be true. |
| [05:44:46] | just_joe_: | that fixed it i was listening to peter gabriel remixes online. i thought the audio driver mixed everything together... |
| [05:45:31] | kormoc: | just_joe_, depends on the card and the driver |
| [05:46:39] | just_joe_: | ahh |
| [05:47:07] | Rommie: | Thanks guys, have a good one |

| [11:03:26] | juski: | xbmcmythtv doesn't care about the protocol version much either |
| [11:04:11] | juski: | directhex|work: it'll be more a case of you just hack the procol version number & it just so happens that the stuff it needs the protocol for haven't changed |

| [11:05:41] | juski: | true but the control methods don't change much |

| [13:34:35] | rooaus: | 12 without hacking the kernel |
| [13:34:58] | directhex|work: | BassKozz, as many cores as you can throw at it (what does "support" mean though? |
| [13:35:09] | directhex|work: | BassKozz, and 12 per machine, but mythtv supports multiple servers in one setup |
| [13:35:32] | ** rooaus looks for that thread ** | |
| [13:35:37] | BassKozz: | I mean I want to build a sick MythTV box, and I want to use a quadcord CPU and at least 4 tuners, is a quadcore overkill for this? |
| [13:36:44] | directhex|work: | BassKozz, what do you want the cores to be doing? |
| [13:37:49] | directhex|work: | it *might* be overkill, depending on your use case. if you use real tv cards (mpeg encoders or digital tuners) then recording tv has almost no cpu load |
| [13:37:59] | BassKozz: | Well is it nessessary to have a core per tuner for recording/playback/streaming, etc... I guess i am looking for info on MythTV's performance with different setups so that I can figure out what purchases I need to make for my new box with out going overboard |
| [13:38:21] | directhex|work: | an old pentium 3 box would accept several real tuners without breaking a sweat |
| [13:38:24] | BassKozz: | and these would all be HD streams |
| [13:38:56] | directhex|work: | cpu intensive myth tasks: commercial flagging, transcoding, playing hdtv |
| [13:39:00] | rooaus: | I was wrong, it was 8 by default and the guy wanted to use 12. http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/284705#284705 |
| [13:39:02] | BassKozz: | ahh, ok, so maybe it is overkill then... also I would probably want to run a software Raid 5 to keep my shows (somewhat) protected |
| [13:39:18] | directhex|work: | i/o intensive tasks: recording hdtv |
| [13:39:48] | BassKozz: | rooaus: and that guy had a serious system " HP DL720 with 8x Xeon CPUs and 16GB RAM. " |
| [13:39:59] | jarle_: | BassKozz: To actually playback these shows on the other hand, for THAT you will need a top notch CPU... |
| [13:40:03] | directhex|work: | but the ideal mythtv setup is a mythtv *setup*, not a single mythtv *box* |
| [13:40:18] | directhex|work: | i.e. split the big noisy disk-filled system away from the quiet sexy playback system |
| [13:40:29] | BassKozz: | directhex|work: so where can I find info on how much system I would need for 4 HD tuners recording/playback/streaming? |
| [13:40:37] | juski: | willcooke: hell yeah! woooooooooo.. woo./.... |
| [13:41:15] | directhex|work: | BassKozz, about 20mbit/sec of i/o bandwidth per hd stream |

| [13:42:27] | juski: | willcooke: a mate of mine had one with a mike attached to it for PA use too |
| [13:42:35] | directhex|work: | playing h264 hd smoothly will require the very latest decoder code from ffmpeg, which isn't quite in mythtv yet last i checked, but is due Real Soon Now |
| [13:43:12] | BassKozz: | Thanks for the info :) |
| [13:43:36] | directhex|work: | BassKozz, how are you planning on getting the HD streams into the system? |
| [13:44:02] | directhex|work: | BassKozz, geographical location (local laws, cable/sat operators, etc) make all the difference |
| [13:44:03] | BassKozz: | Are there any MythTV support forums? or is the mailing list (http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/) the only one? |

| [13:44:31] | BassKozz: | Don't the cable providers have to accept cable cards? |
| [13:44:37] | directhex|work: | http://www.mythtvtalk.com/forum/ but the mailing list is probably more useful |
| [13:44:51] | BassKozz: | Can't I just use a cable card to record HD? |
| [13:45:06] | GreyFoxx: | BassKozz: There are no official forums |
| [13:45:19] | directhex|work: | BassKozz, CableCard(tm) is the most locked-down monstrosity ever. they won't even sell the buggers, they send an engnieer to your house to install it into an approved vendor-sold vista pc |
| [13:45:38] | fysa: | I don't believe CableCARD works with Myth yet? You can use QAM to capture unencrypted stations or firewire to use Myth to pull the MPEG TS off of your cable set-top box. |

| [13:49:03] | BassKozz: | ahh, ok MythTV supports the IR blaster :) |
| [13:49:11] | GreyFoxx: | BassKozz: Bug them for firewire. In the US there is some legal requirement for them to provide it on request |
| [13:49:17] | directhex|work: | which won't happen, hence people using firewire as the best option |
| [13:49:30] | GreyFoxx: | but what channels are available on it will depending on how much of a jerk they are |

| [14:06:41] | defaultro: | rooas, I've recompiled mythtv after mythplugin and I still can't get to mythvideo :( I get this in the log -> 2007-09–26 09:00:27.314 Unable to initialize plugin 'mythvideo'. |
| [14:07:20] | juski: | defaultro: supposed to build mythtv first |
| [14:07:28] | juski: | then build mythplugins |
| [14:07:34] | defaultro: | that's what i had last night |
| [14:07:38] | juski: | and it helps if mythtv & mythplugins are the same version |
| [14:07:41] | defaultro: | mythplugin was first |
| [14:07:45] | DustyBin: | my front and back is on same box, i run: mythtv, zoneminder, bind9, postfix, nfs, ktorrent, apache and dont have any issues at all |
| [14:07:46] | juski: | like cheked out at the same time |
| [14:07:50] | defaultro: | yes, they are the same version |
| [14:08:04] | defaultro: | i svn all the 3 at the same time |
| [14:08:11] | juski: | defaultro: compile & install mythtv first, not mythplugins |
| [14:08:17] | defaultro: | yes |
| [14:08:22] | defaultro: | that's what I did |
| [14:08:36] | defaultro: | let me go to mythplugins again, maybe, I wasn't watching the screen |
| [14:09:06] | juski: | make sure you ran ./configure & ended up with the same prefix for both |
| [14:09:09] | defaultro: | it did say -> MythVideo plugin will be built |
| [14:09:14] | defaultro: | yes |
| [14:09:22] | defaultro: | i all have them in /usr/local/bin |
| [14:09:34] | defaultro: | all the libs to have todays date |
| [14:09:48] | defaultro: | then I did locate libmyth and only found them in one place |
| [14:10:08] | defaultro: | I will rebuild mythplugin again |
| [14:10:13] | defaultro: | now it's after mythtv |
| [14:10:21] | rooaus: | defaultro: The plugins use the installed (not from the source directory tree) mythtv libraries/headers to build against |
| [14:10:26] | juski: | it should always be built & installed after mythtv |
| [14:10:58] | juski: | hence, make thenmake install mythtv BEFORE building the plugins |
| [14:11:54] | rooaus: | juski: I think a modern gpu is a 6 or 7 series nvidia, there was talk of even using 8 series only stuff I think in time. |
| [14:12:01] | defaultro: | yeah, juski, you are correct, that's what I remember doing before |
| [14:12:17] | defaultro: | i got confused rooaus suggestion earlier :P |
| [14:12:50] | defaultro: | let's see |
| [14:13:05] | defaultro: | so what I did last night was correct |
| [14:13:44] | juski: | it won't harm to make install mythtv again, then build the plugins after distclean |
| [14:14:46] | defaultro: | no luck |
| [14:14:53] | juski: | did you forget to run make install as rooty the plugins? ;) |
| [14:14:55] | defaultro: | nothing is happening when I click it |

| [14:15:30] | defaultro: | yes |
| [14:15:38] | defaultro: | i killed them both and restarted |
| [14:15:42] | juski: | like you didn't leave mythfrontend running THEN installed the plugins... |
| [14:15:46] | defaultro: | nope |
| [14:15:51] | defaultro: | i killed then make instlal |
| [14:16:06] | defaultro: | that's why if you see above, I mentioned that I will run it now :) |
| [14:16:37] | rooaus: | defaultro: check the install output, the install steps can have errors but keep going. |
| [14:16:37] | juski: | hmm scan.co.uk have a nice sandisk sansa 4gb thingy for under £60. rockbox-able too |
| [14:16:49] | defaultro: | now i got three failed plugins, mythnews,mythvideo and mythweather |
| [14:16:55] | defaultro: | ok |
| [14:17:00] | juski: | woo new deinterlace methods too? |
| [14:17:12] | GreyFoxx: | Ok, it's time to come up with a "good" method to kill an emulator via the remote when you are using mythgame |
| [14:17:21] | DustyBin: | has anyone heard of jetaway mobos? they make nice small ones, might be good for frontend |
| [14:17:36] | rooaus: | juski: And more to come apparently :) |
| [14:17:37] | defaultro: | rooaus, which file could it be for mythplugins |
| [14:17:43] | GreyFoxx: | Maybe I should let it keep watching for remote codes and if ESCAPE is pressed issue a kill for the pid of the launched emulator |
| [14:17:47] | juski: | rooaus: with documentation? rofl |
| [14:17:55] | rooaus: | lol |
| [14:18:09] | rooaus: | documentation is for wimps |
| [14:18:12] | juski: | from that thread you linked to it looks like a nightmare for noobs |
| [14:18:46] | defaultro: | i don't see much in config.log |
| [14:19:02] | juski: | though judging by all the myythfrontend output I've seen in my life it'd be fairly easy to autoconfig |
| [14:19:03] | defaultro: | i will redo mythplugins again, i think that's the culprit |
| [14:19:07] | rooaus: | absolutely, I have been going to suggest a "Reset to defaults" feature. To many dials and knobs to mess up. |
| [14:19:34] | juski: | Xv detected? gl? xvmc possible? duh... |
| [14:19:40] | rooaus: | defaultro: make install > install.log 2>&1 |
| [14:20:33] | defaultro: | i just did a make distclean |

| [18:09:34] | juski: | tuner card priorities |
| [18:09:43] | NeoFax: | I have mythbuntu setup and it is working well. |
| [18:09:51] | NeoFax: | How do I set that up? |
| [18:10:26] | NeoFax: | tuner card priorities I mean |
| [18:10:43] | NeoFax: | Is it in mythtv-setup or in the frontend? |
| [18:10:56] | juski: | mythtv-setup IIRC |
| [18:11:02] | directhex: | it'd be in mythtv-setup, as it's a recording-specific question |
| [18:11:12] | NeoFax: | OK, thanks I will look there. |
| [18:11:25] | juski: | input connections |
| [18:11:58] | NeoFax: | Also, how do I have mythtv auto transcode my media to two different formats? i.e. to PSP and xvid? |
| [18:12:04] | juski: | input connections, then select the tuner, then select the priority field at the bottom |
| [18:12:33] | juski: | NeoFax: no built-in transcoder profiles exist for those |
| [18:13:05] | NeoFax: | Would I use a special User job that sends the stdin to two different programs? |
| [18:13:18] | directhex: | the psp will open xvid, as long as it's at the exact right resolution and container |
| [18:13:28] | juski: | you could do that. see the wiki page about user jobs |
| [18:13:29] | directhex: | xvid's just an mpeg4 implementation |
| [18:13:48] | NeoFax: | On the Ubuntu forums they have a write-up that shows how to set different transcodes, but only to one format. Not two. |
| [18:14:22] | juski: | and there are example scripts at http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/browser/trunk/mythtv/contrib |

| [18:15:18] | directhex: | NeoFax, there are advantages to keeping it as is |
| [18:15:22] | juski: | from my own perspective transcoding stuff I'm only going to end up deleting is a waste of time |
| [18:15:53] | NeoFax: | juski: True, but alot of the stuff I record is movies that I want to keep. |

| [19:45:22] | pogopope: | so I'm trying to use mythtv with mythweb to stream my downloaded videos via mythvideo but I'm not using a tv tuner since i'm not after that functionality. mythweb has a dependency on channels.php having channel data which i of course can't config since there isn't a tuner present |
| [19:46:24] | pogopope: | anyone ever tried a tuner-less setup or think i can perhaps dumby my channels.php with someone elses just to be able to navigate to the appropriate tab in mythweb? |
| [19:46:33] | Dagmar: | If you have no tuners, then you don't have recorded content |

| [22:30:15] | bsdfox__: | what do you mean how? |
| [22:30:27] | laga: | how would you do that? |
| [22:30:29] | Sedorox: | bsdfox__: I'll have to look into it, split-screen myth, kinda.. I have a elo-touch screen (altho it is a 15") but I was thinking about making a nice console that would have the controls, maybe games.. etc.. |
| [22:30:30] | bsdfox__: | you just configure the touchscreen as an X input device |
| [22:30:53] | bsdfox__: | I'm using twinview right now with myth on one monitor |
| [22:30:59] | bsdfox__: | I don't have a touchscreen though |
| [22:31:27] | Sedorox: | well I understand the two X inputs (tho I was thinking different boxes).. but basically one has the display, and other has visable controls |
| [22:31:32] | bsdfox__: | I'm sure X supports using it for an input device though.. then it should be as simple as mapping the touches to keystrokes |
| [22:31:33] | laga: | bsdfox__: two problems. a) limited mouse support in mythfrontend (being worked on.. slow progress AFAIK) b) how would you show the GUI on the touchscreen and the video on a different screen? |
| [22:31:57] | bsdfox__: | laga: easily? |
| [22:32:04] | bsdfox__: | why would it be a mouse device anyways |
| [22:32:05] | laga: | some video drivers can select a screen for the overlay, but that's not the best solution... |
| [22:32:28] | laga: | alright, and then you'd make gestures to trigger a specific key? |
| [22:32:32] | bsdfox__: | you could run different X servers if you want |
| [22:33:03] | bsdfox__: | don't need gestures.. it's all in the touch screen configuration |
| [22:33:27] | laga: | ah, right. how does the touch screen know which event to trigger? |

| [22:35:20] | tank-man: | loops, simple math |
| [22:35:45] | tank-man: | you got the length of the movie and space on dvd, you can figure out the bitrate |

| [22:40:33] | loops: | i just have a lil script that uses dvdauthor |
| [22:41:02] | tank-man: | i would think the docs for dvdauthor would tell you what video stream it needs |
| [22:41:14] | loops: | but, the default recording options for my pvr-500 saves movies that are too big often.. was hoping to avoid transcoding by configuring the pvr-500 properly |
| [22:41:38] | tank-man: | the only thing that affects the size is the bitrate |
| [22:41:43] | tank-man: | lower it than |
| [22:42:11] | loops: | tank-man, sure.. was just hoping to bump into someone who had gone down that path before and found best bitrate etc.. |
| [22:42:54] | bsdfox__: | it'll vary depending on image quality unfortunately |
| [22:43:52] | loops: | bsdfox__, yeah. looking for the sweet spot where a two and a half hour movie will just fit without losing too much quality |

| [22:58:26] | loops: | cworth, it may have to do with the theme you're using too.. if you can change that it'd be worth a try |

| [23:02:12] | loops: | cworth, lol yeah.. but i see someone else with your problem (found with google) that says switching to theme "blue" fixed it |
