| [00:00:20] | mzb_d800: | although, having said that ... I have bluetooth covering my house (and outside) pretty well ... it's just that the AD2P would probably require a fair bit of bandwidth |
| [00:00:41] | mzb_d800: | (which would also limit your ability to use wifi in that area .... etc) |
| [00:01:00] | mzb_d800: | ie. bluetooth messy .... RF simple (just get the right frequency) |
| [00:01:01] | black_Nightmare_: | hmm RF.. *wonders where to find some* |
| [00:01:29] | ali1234: | get an ipod->fm and some old radios... |

| [00:10:06] | tzanger: | good evening |
| [00:10:26] | tzanger: | can someone explain to me the idea of multiple mythtv backends? I totally get multiple frontends |
| [00:10:51] | tzanger: | does it basically mean I can have a backend for cable, a backend for OTA and a backend for FTA satellite or something and the frontends just see one "mass" of channels? |

| [00:10:56] | tzanger: | or is there more to it than that? |
| [00:12:24] | directhex: | tzanger, you're not forced to compartmentalize so much if you don't need to |
| [00:12:35] | directhex: | tzanger, but yes, the frontends see all the backends combined as one |
| [00:12:40] | ali1234: | you can have all those in one backend if you want. multiple backends just spread out the work. especially comercial flagging transcoding etc |
| [00:12:40] | GreyFoxx: | basically more backend mean more pci slots, more drives, more cpu's for transcoding/commercial flagging etc |
| [00:12:47] | tzanger: | directhex: understood.. I'm just thinking of a lack of PCI card space or something |
| [00:13:04] | tzanger: | interesting |
| [00:13:06] | directhex: | tzanger, for example, yes |

| [00:13:55] | GreyFoxx: | my slave backend (which writes over nfs to the master) has 2 TB of diskspace for video storage, and the master has 1TB for recordings,music, photos etc |
| [00:14:01] | GreyFoxx: | I have tuners in both boxes |
| [00:14:10] | tzanger: | hmm |
| [00:14:12] | tzanger: | interesting |
| [00:17:04] | GreyFoxx: | and I have a small army of frontends |
| [00:18:24] | tzanger: | yeah I just have the one front end in the living room (diskless) but will be adding either an xbox frontend or a mediamvp frontend in the basement for the kids |

| [00:18:26] | adante__ is now known as adante | |
| [00:18:37] | tzanger: | and of course my desktop system is a frontend so I can watch documentaries while I work |
| [00:21:02] | mzb_d800: | tzanger: it's also possible to have a backend without tuners specifically for commflagging + transcoding |
| [00:21:26] | mzb_d800: | (eg. if your other BE's are too slow|busy) |
| [00:23:51] | tzanger: | mzb_d800: hmm I didn't realize that |
| [00:24:21] | mzb_d800: | might sound silly ... but it's handy if you have a xen server |
| [00:24:24] | tzanger: | yeah |
| [00:25:53] | tzanger: | I'm working on an idea for a geographically-distributed network of backends... of course commflag/transcode and livetv wouldn't work, but scheduling a recording on a remote server type stuff |
| [00:26:16] | tzanger: | like you're going up to the cottage or a summer home... flag the programs to record from your local frontend |
| [00:26:23] | tzanger: | I know there's mythweb but it's not quite the same idea |
| [00:26:40] | tzanger: | unfortunately it falls into the gray area the myth team works so hard to stay out of |
| [00:27:40] | tzanger: | are xboxes noisy? I like my frontend because it's diskless, but I don't think a diskless xbox is possible |
| [00:27:50] | GreyFoxx: | Very noisy |
| [00:27:56] | tzanger: | bah |
| [00:28:02] | tzanger: | they're cheap which is why I was looking at 'em |
| [00:28:08] | tzanger: | that and xbox games of course fo rthe kids |

| [00:28:27] | tzanger: | I think I can pick up a modded xbox at one of the pawn shops for like $40 |
| [00:28:41] | tzanger: | add the xbox remote ofr $10-$20 and that's a damn cheap frontend |
| [00:30:50] | tzanger: | got one of those old athlon shuttle pcs for my mom's back/frontend |
| [00:30:59] | tzanger: | mediamvp isn't a bad little box |
| [00:31:04] | tzanger: | ugh |
| [00:31:39] | black_Nightmare_: | heh I thought about these sktA shuttle/msi cubes for a moment but decided against it and to work with my existing microatx board instead (a bit for the sake of my own preference of sound chipset too) ^_^ |
| [00:32:17] | tzanger: | this box was free so I can't complain |
| [00:32:42] | tzanger: | what's the recommended analog cable/OTA card these days? is the PVR150 still tops or has it been replaced |
| [00:33:40] | black_Nightmare_: | tzanger...heh :) |
| [00:33:47] | black_Nightmare_: | what cpu you have in it now? |
| [00:33:53] | tzanger: | um |
| [00:34:05] | tzanger: | athlon XP 2100+ |
| [00:34:22] | tzanger: | VT8375 (S3 card) for video |
| [00:34:38] | tzanger: | it's got a Conexant CX23880 helper in it |
| [00:34:46] | black_Nightmare_: | ah hm...I had a 2100+ for a short time before too.. 1.74ghz and ran well with just a small amd fan |
| [00:34:46] | tzanger: | not sure if linux can use it or not |
| [00:34:54] | tzanger: | yes that's the one |
| [00:34:58] | black_Nightmare_: | the only issue tho was... |
| [00:35:07] | tzanger: | it's a gay silver/green color and the fucking blue leds drive me nuts but whatever |
| [00:35:18] | tzanger: | my mom should enjoy it |
| [00:35:22] | black_Nightmare_: | two blatty gigabyte boards and finally I got a bit fed up that I just sold it as a scrap system .. still hating gigabyte yet to today |
| [00:35:29] | black_Nightmare_: | oh well |
| [00:36:25] | tzanger: | never had any issues like that |
| [00:37:04] | black_Nightmare_: | well close to $300 gone in two motherboards really is enough anyhow ^_^ |
| [00:37:10] | tzanger: | yeah I would agree |
| [00:38:43] | mzb_d800: | never had a real problem with GA mobos (Epox blew on me once tho) ... but I've now gone to Asus|Abit in preference. |
| [00:38:48] | black_Nightmare_: | reminds me of one dorm stay once .. was somewhere in summer-fall season ... and a few good hot days once and would you know what..the entire a/c system crashed offline so dorm rooms were quite hot from morning to when the a/c finally got fixed somewhere at night ... |
| [00:39:19] | black_Nightmare_: | my system didn't have any issue except for that the hd probably didn't really like the heat for it always screeched nearby the entire time but it did still work |
| [00:40:04] | black_Nightmare_: | I think the store (in the next day) had several rash of overheated/failed systems piling up to repair tho hehehe |

| [00:45:27] | black_Nightmare_: | mzb...australlia? oh hmmm ok |
| [00:45:59] | black_Nightmare_: | mzb...if you ever come across an oddball card you always could figure shipping it over the ocean via stnadard fare to me? :P |
| [00:46:02] | black_Nightmare_: | just a silly thought ;) |
| [00:46:17] | mzb_d800: | maybe |
| [00:46:46] | mzb_d800: | although I suspect that anything you'd be interested in would be something I'd be interested in for myself ;P |
| [00:47:04] | mzb_d800: | either way ... what are you after? |
| [00:47:14] | black_Nightmare_: | mzb..heh |
| [00:48:38] | mzb_d800: | I've stopped doing the mass collecting these days .. now I just get stuff that others can't get working |
| [00:49:17] | mzb_d800: | and specific items that I *need* on ebay |
| [00:49:21] | black_Nightmare_: | mzb...oh hmm well to start off with: orangemicro orangelink cards, digital i/o (I have two old issues with lot of ads for 8/16bit isa ones heh), any unusual combo cards (eg nic+scsi, sb16+vga, etc well you know), and hmm who really knows |
| [00:49:47] | mzb_d800: | no, sorry |
| [00:49:56] | mzb_d800: | what sort of digital I/O ? |
| [00:50:06] | black_Nightmare_: | I still remember once seeing one very odd photo... sb16 + ati rage + intel nic all in one SINGLE isa card 0_o |
| [00:50:20] | mzb_d800: | heh |
| [00:50:21] | black_Nightmare_: | didn't notice any visible maker text tho |
| [00:51:10] | black_Nightmare_: | mzb..oh for sampling & output altogether .. just like with analog i/o cards |
| [00:51:51] | mzb_d800: | I have a *lot* of weird things around ... hard to say off the top of my head ... you'd need to be more specific |
| [00:52:48] | black_Nightmare_: | heh ok |
| [00:53:12] | black_Nightmare_: | at least the video card I want I already know some sources .. the sound card hmm still working on where to find some ... :p |
| [00:53:53] | mzb_d800: | digital I/O does ring a bell ... but the only thing I can think of off the top of my head is a 24-line card which was a kit |
| [00:54:09] | mzb_d800: | (probably published by Silicon Chip mag) |
| [00:54:41] | mzb_d800: | but I've got vague plans for that one ;) |

| [01:00:39] | black_Nightmare_: | heh...not the type I was looking for but yeah thats nice |
| [01:00:41] | mzb_d800: | nice ISA video card in original box ... forgot the brand now ... pro graphics (ex. architect) ... used to cost au$2000 new |
| [01:01:11] | black_Nightmare_: | isa video card.. 8bit or 16bit? :p |

| [04:51:27] | Captain_Murdoch: | probably main drawback is that it doesn't have the normal PLAY, PAUSE, FFWD, REW, etc. keys you'd find on a VCR remote, so you just map those keys as you want. I've been using them for 4+ years now on a few of my frontends. |

| [05:10:33] | Captain_Murdoch: | pestilence: I haven't had any issues with it. I sit directly in front of the TV though usually, not off to one side. and I'm fairly level with the receiver as I have it taped to the bottom of my HDTV set. the receiver doesn't have a wide field of view, definitely not 90 or 180 degrees. |

| [05:12:26] | pestilence: | Captain_Murdoch: ah, ok. one more question, since that is a receiver/remote combo, couldn't you just use any remote with the reciever? i.e. couldn't i configure LIRC to understand the remote that controls the tv? |
| [05:13:04] | pestilence: | thanks, i grabed your lircrc file. |
| [05:14:16] | tcpsyn: | heh. Everytime I pop in it's an lirc discussion. |
| [05:14:36] | tcpsyn: | wonder if the lirc folks know there software is difficult. |
| [05:14:53] | tcpsyn: | /there/their |
| [05:14:57] | pestilence: | tcpsyn: oh, i haven't had any problems with it. yet. |
| [05:15:11] | tcpsyn: | I remember it being a pain. |
| [05:15:25] | pestilence: | works great for my hauppage card/remote, using the config files available for it. |
| [05:15:47] | tcpsyn: | yep. mine too, just not without a headache. |
| [05:16:14] | tcpsyn: | but, my configuration is a little different. |
| [05:16:41] | pestilence: | tcpsyn: maybe you can answer this. if you have a IR reciever and run LIRC, can you couple that with any IR remote? |
| [05:17:01] | tcpsyn: | I've tried to use my onkyo remote with no luck. |
| [05:17:04] | pestilence: | or is there something more subtle that i don't understand |
| [05:17:27] | tcpsyn: | I can't learn it, irw doesn't show any input. |
| [05:17:31] | tcpsyn: | just seems to be ignored. |
| [05:17:41] | pestilence: | so perhaps some recievers aren't capable of detecting some remotes? |
| [05:17:47] | tcpsyn: | I have no idea. |
| [05:17:49] | pestilence: | ok |
| [05:17:54] | tcpsyn: | I would think they would. |
| [05:17:56] | tcpsyn: | that it wouldn't matter. |
| [05:18:04] | flexy: | as far as tv's inbuild osd and xorg logs are to believed, I have 50Hz vertical refresh rate, shouldn't the bob deinterlacing be the best to watch pal? |
| [05:18:06] | tcpsyn: | but, from what I saw, that's not the case. |
| [05:19:04] | pestilence: | the thing that gets me is, the laptop i'd like to use for a frontend has what appears from the outside to be an IR port. but i guess it's just for looks |
| [05:19:33] | pestilence: | it doesn't show up in any hardware listings. |

| [05:20:54] | tcpsyn: | drove me nuts. |
| [05:21:12] | tcpsyn: | theres just a soulder point on the board there. |
| [05:21:15] | tcpsyn: | with no reciever. |
| [05:21:34] | tcpsyn: | I use lircd as a listener. |
| [05:21:43] | tcpsyn: | and listen for events on the backend |
| [05:22:07] | tcpsyn: | that's how I use my haupagge reciever (which is on my backend) to control my frontend. |

| [05:22:34] | tcpsyn: | so you can do the same... |
| [05:23:07] | pestilence: | your backend must be pretty close to your frontend |
| [05:23:37] | pestilence: | there's something i bet nobody has ever said on irc, ever. |
| [05:23:57] | tcpsyn: | heh. |
| [05:24:08] | tcpsyn: | yeah, they're both in the same room. |
| [05:24:31] | pestilence: | in this case, the backend will be on a different floor, so unless i hang the backend from the ceiling and run wires, i don't think its feasible. |
| [05:24:37] | tcpsyn: | but the reciever gets pretty good distance. |
| [05:24:45] | pestilence: | maybe i could use a series of mirros |
| [05:24:47] | pestilence: | mirrors |
| [05:25:02] | tcpsyn: | you could run just the reciver. |
| [05:25:07] | tcpsyn: | not the whole backend. |
| [05:25:14] | tcpsyn: | but yeah. |
| [05:25:31] | tcpsyn: | I'd like to say that'd be lame. |
| [05:25:38] | tcpsyn: | but, it'd be kinda slick. |
| [05:25:44] | tcpsyn: | that's exactly what I would do :) |
| [05:26:25] | flexy: | howcome bob deinterlacing causes choppy video with totally screwed lipsync? |

| [05:29:00] | flexy: | well, sharp edges look jagged and living. and osd text horizontal parts seems to be flickering |
| [05:29:08] | flexy: | ok, I'll try that too |

| [05:40:43] | squidly: | tcpsyn: i dont konw |
| [05:40:58] | squidly: | what is the xorg.conf opton? |
| [05:40:58] | flexy: | tcpsyn: ok, it was there, but without the path /usr/lib/ I think that's enough? |
| [05:41:50] | tcpsyn: | flexy, without the path? |
| [05:42:06] | tcpsyn: | there are probably more than one libXvMC |
| [05:42:07] | flexy: | just plain libXvMC.so.1 |
| [05:42:29] | tcpsyn: | do you have a libXvMCNVIDIA* |
| [05:42:42] | tcpsyn: | should have come with the driver |
| [05:42:49] | tcpsyn: | /usr/lib/libXvMCNVIDIA.so.100.14.19 |
| [05:42:54] | tcpsyn: | or so.. |

| [05:43:08] | tcpsyn: | yea |
| [05:43:45] | flexy: | restarting X |
| [05:43:51] | tcpsyn: | squidly, it would be under extensions |
| [05:44:06] | tcpsyn: | I did some googling on it too, a few people said that it's a codec problem. |
| [05:44:09] | tcpsyn: | with ffmpeg |
| [05:44:20] | squidly: | tcpsyn: I think i got it |
| [05:44:24] | tcpsyn: | squidly, nice |

| [05:55:14] | tcpsyn: | sell what |
| [05:55:24] | defaultro: | i'm selling my subwoofer |
| [05:55:30] | tcpsyn: | yea, you can do that. |

| [05:55:45] | defaultro: | just in case it doesn't get sold at audiogon |
| [05:55:49] | tcpsyn: | kid came and met me at the gas station to get it. |
| [05:55:54] | defaultro: | cool |
| [05:56:03] | tcpsyn: | he paid cash though |
| [05:56:11] | defaultro: | i think, 30 days is what I have to wait before i try ebay |
| [05:56:14] | tcpsyn: | you have to specify in the listing. |
| [05:56:17] | defaultro: | ok |
| [05:56:27] | defaultro: | so how do ebay earn then? |
| [05:56:39] | tcpsyn: | I think when I saw that green crap... it was an opengl thing. |
| [05:56:45] | tcpsyn: | er. opengl had something to do with it. |
| [05:56:51] | defaultro: | what green? |
| [05:56:53] | tcpsyn: | or.. at least it was one of the things I messed with |
| [05:57:00] | tcpsyn: | defaultro, different conversation. |
| [05:57:04] | defaultro: | yeah,i know |
| [05:57:11] | defaultro: | where were you seeing it? |
| [05:57:14] | tcpsyn: | http://www.codestorm.org/files/mythtv.jpg |
| [05:57:26] | tcpsyn: | I was seeing it in mplayer |
| [05:57:31] | tcpsyn: | he's seeing it in myth and xine. |
| [05:57:31] | defaultro: | ah |
| [05:57:41] | defaultro: | looks like from a tv signal |
| [05:57:48] | defaultro: | i saw that when I was using ati capture card |
| [05:57:54] | squidly: | tcpsyn: and mplayer |
| [05:57:59] | tcpsyn: | ohh. |
| [05:58:03] | tcpsyn: | maybe he's got it |
| [05:58:05] | squidly: | but its random |
| [05:58:08] | tcpsyn: | bad signal |
| [05:58:08] | defaultro: | let's ask him |
| [05:58:13] | defaultro: | not bad signal |
| [05:58:15] | tcpsyn: | no? |
| [05:58:18] | squidly: | no not bad sig |
| [05:58:20] | defaultro: | it's on the driver |

| [05:58:49] | tcpsyn: | you should be fine with the pvr |
| [05:58:50] | defaultro: | when did it start happening? |
| [05:59:01] | defaultro: | it's in the video card |
| [05:59:04] | squidly: | a couple of weeks ago |
| [05:59:10] | defaultro: | have you tried other vid card? |
| [05:59:12] | squidly: | I've rolled back to driver |
| [05:59:15] | squidly: | dont have one |
| [05:59:17] | defaultro: | ok |
| [05:59:29] | defaultro: | it happened when you upgraded the driver? |

| [06:02:03] | defaultro: | oh, those are standard res |
| [06:02:11] | squidly: | yea. its output on my monitor |
| [06:02:39] | defaultro: | those are easily supported by fx50, an old vid |
| [06:02:48] | defaultro: | try finding a card and test |
| [06:02:59] | squidly: | i cant. I dont have anyother video cards |
| [06:03:06] | squidly: | it works fine in doze though |
| [06:03:09] | defaultro: | but what about your mythtv, is it set to 0? |
| [06:03:25] | squidly: | what do you mean is mmy mythtv set to 0? |
| [06:03:32] | defaultro: | appearance |

| [06:05:00] | defaultro: | something on your video card |
| [06:05:13] | defaultro: | i have seen those kind of issue and it's related to vid |
| [06:05:21] | flexy: | what filter can I use to "soften" the image? There is no traditional noise, as the broadcast is digital, but mpeg2 artifacts, cause of those SOBs at the broadcasting company are being so cheap with the bitrates |
| [06:05:22] | squidly: | but then why would it start stop start stop |
| [06:05:31] | defaultro: | you aren't even maxing your vid card's capabilities |
| [06:05:41] | squidly: | not even close |
| [06:06:03] | defaultro: | i don't know sir |
| [06:06:07] | defaultro: | my card is simple |
| [06:06:12] | defaultro: | 6600 GT agp |
| [06:06:12] | squidly: | Video timing method: SGI OpenGL |
| [06:06:21] | squidly: | could that be part of the issue? |
| [06:06:24] | flexy: | tcpsyn: osd is OK again, I reverted the XvMCConfig file... |
| [06:06:35] | defaultro: | i don't know |
| [06:06:47] | squidly: | defaultro: i'm using 6800's |
| [06:06:52] | defaultro: | but SLI |
| [06:07:01] | squidly: | let me kill the sli |
| [06:07:11] | defaultro: | maybe, that could be causing it |
| [06:07:22] | defaultro: | i don't have experience with those kind of cards |
| [06:07:36] | squidly: | yes.. its not been an issue until very recently |
| [06:07:51] | defaultro: | i can easily tell that something is wrong somewhere in linux, nvidia driver |
| [06:07:59] | defaultro: | because you said, it works great in doze |
| [06:08:16] | squidly: | I noticed it started when I had issues with my keyboard lcd's too |
| [06:08:21] | defaultro: | try to think what you did that brought that issue up |

| [06:09:54] | squidly: | let me try somethign |
| [06:10:19] | defaultro: | i have 2 cisco switches and 2 cisco routers that I want to sell. How will I find out how much I need to put for the shipping cost? |
| [06:10:31] | squidly: | defaultro: what ones? |
| [06:10:37] | defaultro: | what? |
| [06:10:37] | ** squidly is a security engineer ** | |

| [06:10:59] | squidly: | lol tcpsyn |
| [06:11:04] | defaultro: | :D |
| [06:11:07] | tcpsyn: | you measure and weight them |
| [06:11:18] | tcpsyn: | and from that you can calculate the shipping based on zip code |
| [06:11:19] | defaultro: | i bought it from ebay a long time ago, and some were given by friends |
| [06:11:24] | defaultro: | ah |
| [06:11:32] | defaultro: | cisco catalyst 2924 xl |
| [06:11:39] | defaultro: | the other one is 1900 |
| [06:11:46] | defaultro: | then cisco 4000 with np4t |
| [06:11:50] | defaultro: | and cisco 2501 |
| [06:11:52] | defaultro: | old ones |
| [06:12:04] | defaultro: | i'm thinking of selling them really cheap |
| [06:12:18] | squidly: | all of them together perhsps 500 |
| [06:12:24] | defaultro: | oh |
| [06:12:29] | defaultro: | i never expected that |
| [06:12:30] | defaultro: | :D |
| [06:12:30] | yorkie: | any chance of help with new mythbuntu install? |
| [06:12:35] | defaultro: | i was expecting it at 200 |
| [06:12:43] | defaultro: | sweet |
| [06:12:50] | squidly: | the 4000 is the best price |
| [06:12:56] | defaultro: | i guess, i have to sell them all together |
| [06:13:14] | squidly: | the 2500 (junk) the 2924 not to bad. what switch os, and the 1900 (junk) |
| [06:13:19] | defaultro: | or start bidding at 100 and reserver price at 300 |
| [06:13:33] | defaultro: | yeah, that's true |
| [06:13:37] | tcpsyn: | dont ship out of the country |
| [06:13:39] | squidly: | start bidding at 100 set reserve at 200 |
| [06:13:44] | squidly: | and hope |
| [06:13:51] | defaultro: | yep, i will do it only in u.s. |
| [06:13:56] | defaultro: | yeah |

| [06:51:06] | defaultro: | that's a good test |
| [06:51:37] | cmoates: | Have you rebuilt X recently, squidly? |
| [06:51:56] | squidly: | I updated X ahotu 2 weeks ago |
| [06:51:57] | cmoates: | That smacks of a library decoding bug |
| [06:52:03] | cmoates: | When did this start to occur? |
| [06:52:08] | squidly: | about 2 weeks |
| [06:52:11] | cmoates: | ... |
| [06:52:17] | squidly: | the same time I notice I didnt have any key board leds |
| [06:52:22] | cmoates: | You have a faulty x build |
| [06:52:29] | squidly: | i tried rolling back my nvidia drivers, |
| [06:52:34] | cmoates: | Not the drivers |
| [06:52:34] | squidly: | i'm not going to roll back X |
| [06:52:37] | cmoates: | the X subsystem |
| [06:52:44] | cmoates: | You don't need to roll it back |
| [06:52:47] | cmoates: | but I'd do a rebuild |
| [06:52:50] | cmoates: | Something didn't build right |
| [06:52:55] | defaultro: | maybe, x could be the culprit then |
| [06:53:02] | cmoates: | Are you using xvmc/ |
| [06:53:04] | squidly: | roll back and rebuild the X system |
| [06:53:13] | squidly: | how do I check? |
| [06:53:29] | cmoates: | Is xvmc in your use flags? |
| [06:53:54] | cmoates: | If no, it's fine, it's just an option for nvidia cards |
| [06:53:58] | squidly: | nope |
| [06:54:16] | squidly: | what does it do? I think I had it before |
| [06:54:18] | cmoates: | could be libmpeg or whatever it is that decodes that |
| [06:54:23] | cmoates: | It's x video motion compensation |
| [06:54:27] | squidly: | ahh |
| [06:54:29] | cmoates: | offloads deinterlacing to the video card |
| [06:54:33] | squidly: | ahh |
| [06:54:46] | cmoates: | I'd seriously consider looking at the deps for X |

| [06:55:07] | defaultro: | squidly, I need to take a rest now. been sleeping lately |
| [06:55:14] | defaultro: | at around 3am :D |
| [06:55:17] | squidly: | defaultro: np.. ty for the help |
| [06:55:21] | cmoates: | Yeah, it's almost 2 here |
| [06:55:22] | defaultro: | anytime |
| [06:55:24] | squidly: | same here |
| [06:55:30] | cmoates: | But, that looks like it's not reading the right memory when it does the decode |
| [06:55:36] | defaultro: | i'm off though :D |
| [06:55:41] | defaultro: | but just tired |
| [06:55:54] | cmoates: | I've seen very similar looking images when I've done screwy things with opengl programmin |
| [06:55:59] | cmoates: | And read "random" memory |
| [06:56:07] | squidly: | ok.. so rebuild X totaly |
| [06:56:10] | cmoates: | I would |
| [06:56:12] | cmoates: | It can't hurt |
| [06:56:16] | cmoates: | And I think it's likely in there somewhere |
| [06:56:24] | defaultro: | cmoates, before you sleep, 1 question |
| [06:56:27] | cmoates: | Sure |
| [06:56:33] | defaultro: | what can you say about 7.3 Xorg? |
| [06:56:45] | cmoates: | I haven't really had the time to look at it, unfortunately |

| [06:56:59] | squidly: | cmoates: defaultro that is when I started having issues. |
| [06:57:09] | defaultro: | :) |
| [06:57:21] | cmoates: | I'm checking what version I'm using, one sec |
| [06:57:39] | defaultro: | lucky so far, never had any major issues since 2005 |
| [06:58:03] | defaultro: | cmoates, check out my mythtv screenshots |
| [06:58:13] | cmoates: | where? |
| [06:58:23] | cmoates: | I'm using 7.2 |
| [06:58:25] | defaultro: | i'm pulling |
| [06:58:38] | cmoates: | Anyhow, squidly, another idea |
| [06:58:49] | cmoates: | use mythtranscode to convert the mpg to an avi or something |
| [06:58:57] | cmoates: | then test to see if it transcoded properly on your windows machine |
| [06:59:04] | defaultro: | http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showpost.php?p . . . ostcount=900 |
| [06:59:08] | cmoates: | If it turns out bad, it's one of the codec libraries |
| [06:59:14] | squidly: | when I went to xorg 7.3. dont expect your keyboard leds to work any more if you |
| [06:59:18] | cmoates: | That could prevent you from rebuilding all of X |
| [06:59:36] | defaultro: | i'm driving an entry level crt projector using vga out from nvidia 6600GT and MythTV |

| [07:00:10] | defaultro: | but sometimes, once or twice a week, i need to converge |
| [07:00:16] | defaultro: | yeah |
| [07:00:28] | defaultro: | i got reap off by canon |
| [07:00:29] | cmoates: | At first I thought it was my LCD :) |
| [07:00:39] | defaultro: | i saw it all from my screenshots |
| [07:00:45] | cmoates: | yeah :( |
| [07:00:46] | defaultro: | looks like i need to return in |
| [07:00:48] | defaultro: | it |
| [07:00:55] | cmoates: | for 1 pixel, good luck |
| [07:00:59] | cmoates: | unless it's still in store return window |
| [07:01:04] | defaultro: | yeah, i got that from them for free |
| [07:01:25] | defaultro: | i had s400 and they were offering $119 to replace with S500 |
| [07:01:27] | cmoates: | Anyhow squidly, there's two things to consider, transcode test or rebuild X |
| [07:01:31] | cmoates: | It's possible that pixelformats changed |
| [07:01:44] | cmoates: | Did you rebuild the various libraries that talk to X, when you rebuilt X? |
| [07:01:57] | cmoates: | Ah |

| [07:02:50] | defaultro: | oh |
| [07:02:55] | cmoates: | It is a good camera |
| [07:02:55] | defaultro: | it's an entry level? |
| [07:03:00] | cmoates: | Rebel line is entry level |
| [07:03:08] | cmoates: | But |
| [07:03:11] | defaultro: | i would want the next higher up |
| [07:03:12] | cmoates: | Unless you are serious |
| [07:03:17] | cmoates: | It's probably not worth going higher |
| [07:03:18] | defaultro: | gothca |
| [07:03:20] | defaultro: | ok |
| [07:03:25] | cmoates: | Rebel is a good camera |
| [07:03:27] | defaultro: | so rebel is ok then |
| [07:03:29] | cmoates: | yes |
| [07:03:31] | defaultro: | cool |
| [07:03:42] | cmoates: | If I didn't already own Nikon lenses, I'd consider a Rebel |
| [07:03:49] | cmoates: | But I'd be throwing out $2k in lenses |
| [07:03:50] | defaultro: | is it true that SXRD are really nice/ |
| [07:04:05] | cmoates: | The UI sucks |
| [07:04:07] | cmoates: | The picture is great |
| [07:04:09] | defaultro: | ok |
| [07:04:13] | defaultro: | is it plasma? |
| [07:04:17] | defaultro: | lcd or dlp? |
| [07:04:18] | cmoates: | No, rear projection |
| [07:04:23] | cmoates: | It's like DLP but not |
| [07:04:26] | defaultro: | ah, just like mine |
| [07:04:26] | cmoates: | it's their own tech |
| [07:04:34] | defaultro: | i have a mitsubishi ws48313 |
| [07:04:38] | cmoates: | And it doesn't have the rainbow effect |
| [07:04:43] | cmoates: | (which I suffer from) |
| [07:04:43] | defaultro: | i opened it and saw 3 guns |
| [07:04:55] | cmoates: | I got a mitsu 62" DLP first |
| [07:04:56] | defaultro: | my mits is crt based too |
| [07:05:00] | cmoates: | Brought it home, got a headache |

| [07:05:09] | cmoates: | DLP rainbows |
| [07:05:11] | defaultro: | ah |
| [07:05:17] | cmoates: | Took it back, got the SXRD |
| [07:05:18] | defaultro: | i love my CRT RPTV |
| [07:05:19] | cmoates: | No complaints |
| [07:05:26] | defaultro: | it's 4 years old |
| [07:05:32] | cmoates: | Until 2 weeks ago, the repair bill is $1400 |
| [07:05:34] | defaultro: | more than 40 hours a week |
| [07:05:37] | cmoates: | So I'm just going to buy an LCD instead |
| [07:05:41] | defaultro: | ok |
| [07:05:46] | cmoates: | For that kind of money |
| [07:05:50] | cmoates: | I can get a nw damned tv |

| [07:06:10] | cmoates: | Too big? |
| [07:06:13] | defaultro: | yeah |
| [07:06:17] | defaultro: | but quality is phenomeal |
| [07:06:18] | cmoates: | DLP is much thinner |
| [07:06:28] | cmoates: | And should be cheap this christmas season |
| [07:06:30] | defaultro: | i always tell her about the flesh, blacks |
| [07:06:39] | defaultro: | life like |
| [07:06:49] | defaultro: | but man, it's like 250 lbs |
| [07:06:52] | cmoates: | Yup |
| [07:06:57] | cmoates: | DLP is less than 1/4 that |
| [07:06:57] | cmoates: | :) |
| [07:07:01] | defaultro: | yeah, 60ls |
| [07:07:03] | defaultro: | lbs |
| [07:07:08] | defaultro: | or 100 |
| [07:07:11] | cmoates: | if that |
| [07:07:17] | cmoates: | My SXRD is... 70? |
| [07:07:18] | cmoates: | i think |
| [07:07:20] | cmoates: | not heavy |
| [07:07:30] | cmoates: | Just big and unweildy, so you need two people to move it |
| [07:07:32] | defaultro: | i saw a 65"dlp at tiger direct, picture q was excellent |

| [07:11:32] | defaultro: | i bought 2 of them,1 dead for myparts and 1 working |
| [07:11:36] | defaultro: | dead was $50 |
| [07:11:37] | cmoates: | It looks really heavy :) |
| [07:11:43] | defaultro: | working is $125 |
| [07:11:47] | cmoates: | Wow, so cheap |
| [07:11:52] | defaultro: | but when I got it home, it was freaking intermittent |
| [07:12:03] | defaultro: | so the guys told me to swap boards |
| [07:12:11] | defaultro: | until it became stable |
| [07:12:29] | defaultro: | everynight until 4am, i studied convergence, heehe |
| [07:12:41] | defaultro: | it was hard at first |
| [07:12:51] | defaultro: | but now, am used to it, still not perfect though |
| [07:13:07] | cmoates: | Looks close though |
| [07:13:21] | defaultro: | the latest ones I have, the earlier link is nice |
| [07:13:26] | defaultro: | it's 8ft wide |
| [07:13:44] | cmoates: | I have to put my TV in a corner, so no projector for me |
| [07:14:01] | defaultro: | gotcha |
| [07:14:03] | cmoates: | I only have about 5' side to side |
| [07:14:11] | defaultro: | i was lucky with that $125 |
| [07:14:12] | cmoates: | Hanging a screen would look funny |
| [07:14:30] | defaultro: | although i drove 3 hours to get it |
| [07:14:35] | cmoates: | cheaper than shipping |
| [07:14:47] | defaultro: | yep |
| [07:15:09] | cmoates: | That thing has to weigh 250lbs |
| [07:15:10] | defaultro: | it's got 3500 hours now on the tubes |
| [07:15:18] | defaultro: | nope, it's 145 |
| [07:15:18] | cmoates: | those 3 big lenses + 3 crts |
| [07:15:25] | defaultro: | yep |
| [07:15:30] | squidly: | ok cmoates defaultro thanks and goodnight |
| [07:15:34] | cmoates: | good luck squidly |

| [07:15:42] | defaultro: | i'm taking off too |
| [07:15:45] | cmoates: | I should too |
| [07:15:46] | defaultro: | i'm leaving my irc on |
| [07:15:48] | defaultro: | :D |
| [07:15:51] | defaultro: | nice chatting with you |
| [07:15:51] | cmoates: | It's 2:15 |
| [07:15:54] | cmoates: | take care |
| [07:15:56] | squidly: | thanks. i'm pulling down from 7.3, gotta a lot of crap to unmerge |

| [07:16:49] | cmoates: | Back to warmer weather :) |
| [07:17:02] | cmoates: | 7 years left, and counting :) |
| [07:17:10] | defaultro: | it's not cold here actually lately, did you notice |
| [07:17:10] | squidly: | cmoates: heh |
| [07:17:16] | defaultro: | last year was |
| [07:17:19] | cmoates: | I had snow on the ground 2 days ago |
| [07:17:21] | cmoates: | It's cold :) |
| [07:17:22] | squidly: | I left PA about 2 yeras god |
| [07:17:28] | defaultro: | wow |
| [07:17:30] | squidly: | my ex was the only reaosn I was there |
| [07:17:42] | squidly: | I kind of miss pa and kind of dont |
| [07:17:46] | cmoates: | It's not awful |
| [07:17:52] | defaultro: | last year january, i went out around 2am, I threw a hot water in air |
| [07:17:56] | cmoates: | But I'd rather have 80 degrees in the winter |
| [07:17:59] | defaultro: | the temp was -30 that night |
| [07:18:13] | cmoates: | where? |
| [07:18:15] | squidly: | actually I wanna go back with what the freak jobs in our .gov is doing right now |
| [07:18:16] | defaultro: | chicago |
| [07:18:18] | cmoates: | ah |
| [07:18:36] | defaultro: | i was just curious if what i saw in youtube were true |
| [07:18:45] | squidly: | what did you see? |
| [07:18:53] | defaultro: | so threw the hot water in air and it changed to smoke |
| [07:19:09] | defaultro: | it was really cool |
| [07:19:28] | defaultro: | it fell like a white fountain or like a baby powder that you are pouring |
| [07:19:48] | cmoates: | It never gets that cold here, so I can't test that :) |
| [07:19:51] | defaultro: | my daughter captured a video of me |
| [07:19:58] | cmoates: | Alright, bedtime for me, you two should do the same :) |

| [12:26:33] | mzb_d800: | yeah, got one of them too :) |
| [12:26:44] | mzb_d800: | errr |
| [12:26:54] | mzb_d800: | or is it eth only .. ?? |
| [12:28:33] | black_Nightmare_: | mzb...heh..used it or nah? |

| [12:29:32] | black_Nightmare_: | hm me still thinking about finding one of these local and try find where to buy a pcmcia adapter card .. presto, 56K+nic in one single card ^_^ |
| [12:29:42] | mzb_d800: | I use a compaq WL110 in preference now |
| [12:30:03] | k-man_ (k-man_!n=jason@unaffiliated/k-man) has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)) | |
| [12:30:04] | black_Nightmare_: | koutech makes a pcmcia adapter that also has a firewire chip (two firewire ports on a second pci plate) but I haven't been able to find where to retail this tho so lets leave that idea alone |
| [12:30:20] | mzb_d800: | and also have a Pretec CF modem card if I need modem |
| [12:30:35] | mzb_d800: | both were < au$20 |
| [12:30:41] | mzb_d800: | (iirc) |
| [12:31:10] | black_Nightmare_: | here's the link if you were wondering anyhow: http://www.koutech.com/proddetail.asp?linenumber=231 |
| [12:31:19] | black_Nightmare_: | not just your plain pcmcia adapter card ;) |
| [12:31:54] | mzb_d800: | I can't say I'm keen on multiple-purpose adapters much ... if they work at all I get hooked on them ... and then WHEN they fail I loose more than just 1 ability |
| [12:32:32] | mzb_d800: | much prefer to buy exactly what I need at minimum price |
| [12:32:49] | mzb_d800: | rather than everything I want at whatever price |
| [12:33:09] | black_Nightmare_: | heh well...I could just do with a single pcmcia adapter (and hope I find one that can use type III thickness anyhow) and swap cards or just .. well you know :p |
| [12:33:10] | black_Nightmare_: | to our own |
| [12:33:21] | black_Nightmare_: | this is an old microatx board again so limited on expansion slots |
| [12:33:23] | mzb_d800: | yep |
| [12:33:52] | mzb_d800: | haven't really got into laptop pcmcia seriously until recently |
| [12:34:15] | mzb_d800: | much preferred to get CF-based stuff to support my ipaqs |
| [12:34:38] | mzb_d800: | and then use CF<=>PCMCIA adaptor if req |
| [12:34:38] | black_Nightmare_: | well I haven't ever seen any realistic combo internet access isa/pci card at all..it seem to only be for laptops :p |
| [12:35:05] | mzb_d800: | combo nic + modem ? |
| [12:35:09] | mzb_d800: | nah |
| [12:35:17] | mzb_d800: | don't waste your time |
| [12:35:26] | mzb_d800: | got limited slots or something? |
| [12:35:40] | clever[rev]: | ive got a problem with 1 of my laptops and pcmcia |
| [12:35:52] | clever[rev]: | i cant seem to even see the pcmcia slots existing from software |
| [12:35:58] | clever[rev]: | lspci cant see anything at all |
| [12:36:03] | mzb_d800: | 2.6 kernel? |
| [12:36:14] | clever[rev]: | 2.6 kernel |
| [12:36:14] | mzb_d800: | pccardctl |
| [12:36:17] | mzb_d800: | (iirc) |
| [12:36:24] | clever[rev]: | and it was working fine in the other laptop |
| [12:36:28] | mzb_d800: | what chipset? |
| [12:36:31] | clever[rev]: | but it died and i moved the whole drive over to another one |
| [12:36:39] | ** clever[rev] looks ** | |
| [12:36:55] | clever[rev]: | the pcmcia modules dont auto load |
| [12:37:02] | clever[rev]: | and i suspect it lacks a pci bus |
| [12:37:07] | mzb_d800: | model of laptop then? |
| [12:37:16] | clever[rev]: | t2150cdt |
| [12:37:28] | mzb_d800: | TOPIC97? |
| [12:37:36] | mzb_d800: | ie. toshiba? |
| [12:37:42] | clever[rev]: | yeah toshiba |
| [12:37:55] | mzb_d800: | good luck ... they're a pita |
| [12:37:58] | clever[rev]: | color screen:P |
| [12:38:09] | black_Nightmare_: | mzb....yeah there's only one single slot I can decidate to internet access hardware so its got to be a xircom combo card through pcmcia adapter ... unless I somehow come across any of these old xircom parallel<->rj45 bridge adapter (I don't even need speed at all so say 70KB/s would be just fine :p) |
| [12:38:10] | clever[rev]: | the other 2 i have are t2100(grey scale screen) |
| [12:38:39] | mzb_d800: | you need to set the BIOS correctly ... and then load the correct module (and possibly blacklist the other) depending on the combo of machine + BIOS setting + wind direction |
| [12:38:40] | clever[rev]: | mzb_d800: i know the slots psysicaly work because iv used them in win95 |
| [12:38:45] | mzb_d800: | yep |
| [12:38:55] | mzb_d800: | P.I.T.A. !!! |
| [12:38:58] | clever[rev]: | and the bios is nearly useless |
| [12:39:15] | clever[rev]: | only 2 ways to get into it |
| [12:39:21] | clever[rev]: | run tsetup.exe from dos |
| [12:39:28] | clever[rev]: | or bootup with the cmos cleared |
| [12:39:32] | mzb_d800: | but there should be a choice between auto, choice 1 and choice 2 (I can't remember the details) |
| [12:39:47] | mzb_d800: | should be a way of getting in from boot |
| [12:40:04] | clever[rev]: | no way i know of to get into bios from bootup |
| [12:40:13] | mzb_d800: | I'd tell you the trick but my Toshiba blew up (piece of crap) |
| [12:40:23] | clever[rev]: | dad thought the whole bios ui was in the tsetup.exe program |
| [12:40:45] | clever[rev]: | one of my t2100's is soaked in koolaid |
| [12:40:52] | mzb_d800: | well there is ... and mine was earlier than yours (300CDS ???) |
| [12:41:24] | mzb_d800: | black_Nightmare_: why do you need modem? |
| [12:41:33] | clever[rev]: | and my hdd is too big for the bios |
| [12:41:38] | clever[rev]: | so grub isnt working right |
| [12:41:54] | clever[rev]: | needing a boot floppy in the external drive |
| [12:41:59] | mzb_d800: | black_Nightmare_: if you're that desperate it would be cheaper to just get a USB2 card and buy adaptors for each purpose |
| [12:42:26] | clever[rev]: | and it cant even play mp3:P |
| [12:42:48] | clever[rev]: | i need to convert it to wav to play without skiping |
| [12:42:57] | mzb_d800: | clever[rev]: I *can* tell you that pcmcia is totally painful on those things ... but it does work if you're prepared to put the effort in |
| [12:43:14] | clever[rev]: | i'll have to google some for it |
| [12:43:16] | mzb_d800: | iirc the BIOS settings were auto, pcmcia or cardbus |
| [12:43:23] | clever[rev]: | but the inet in the hotel is horid |
| [12:43:33] | clever[rev]: | 500ms lag to allmost anything |
| [12:43:49] | mzb_d800: | and if you look at the docs it will give you hints about which combo + driver you need |

| [20:32:30] | |Torg|: | if you get failed to distibute messages it means distcc is mismatched or broken |
| [20:32:45] | |Torg|: | if you get distributed messages it means its working |

| [21:17:14] | iamlindoro_: | Very nice. |
| [21:17:31] | iamlindoro_: | Would have to re-memorize my remote keypresses in the menus, but what the hey |
| [21:18:10] | gbee: | cesman: that would be great, but the fly in the ointment is that it depends on code which only exists in trunk, I don't think you've got a trunk based build of knoppmyth? |
| [21:18:25] | gbee: | of course once we release 0.21 that won't be a problem |
| [21:18:32] | cesman: | not for the general public |
| [21:19:35] | gbee: | I hope to have a preview release ready this weekend, I need to finish off and commit the OSD code changes to SVN first |
| [21:19:54] | iamlindoro_: | gbee, what's new in the OSD? |
| [21:19:58] | gbee: | after that I'll work on getting the rest of the plugins done |
| [21:20:26] | iamlindoro_: | And is the mythtv badge part of the backgrounds or an overlay? |
| [21:21:24] | gbee: | iamlindoro_: the main change is that instead of using a hard-coded theme size of 640x480, the themer can use a higher res, which means a better looking OSD on HD displays |
| [21:21:51] | gbee: | although it makes a huge difference even on my SD TV |
| [21:22:19] | iamlindoro_: | Ah, nice |
| [21:22:24] | gbee: | that OSD theme is based on a resolution of 1280x720 – or twice the resolution of existing themes |
| [21:23:48] | gbee: | the mythtv badge is part of the background, but there is nothing stopping it being an overlay – if people want the option to replace or remove it, then I can change it over to be a separate image |
| [21:23:52] | iamlindoro_: | Love the aqua-esqueness |
| [21:24:18] | dr_lulz: | hrm. the osd is usable with 4:3, too – correct? |
| [21:24:32] | iamlindoro_: | Well, I personally usually cut 'em out when they're there... love myth but I'm more minimalist I guess |
| [21:24:50] | gbee: | iamlindoro_: you aren't the first person to say that, but I've never seen aqua first hand and as I don't really pay much attention to Mac articles I've hardly seen it second hand either |
| [21:25:13] | gbee: | dr_lulz: yes, it scales fine to 4:3 |

| [21:38:46] | Pogonip_new_: | In mythtv setup there's a location for a script to capture lirc keypress |
| [21:39:56] | Pogonip_new_: | I think it's the only way to capture channel numbers greater than one digit. |
| [21:40:43] | iamlindoro_: | Still have no idea what you mean. Myth gets it's lirc stuff from ~/.mythtv/lircrc, and supports multiple digit channels out of the box |
| [21:41:03] | iamlindoro_: | The only lirc related thing I can think of in mythtv-setup is the channel change script, which is for IR blasters |
| [21:41:13] | iamlindoro_: | But perhaps there's an option I don't know of? |
| [21:41:53] | |Torg|: | I belive he thinks lirc captures numners and sends mutiple digits. it does not |
| [21:42:00] | |Torg|: | all lirc does is intreprt keypress |
| [21:42:12] | |Torg|: | 100 is seen as 1 and a 0 and another 0, thats all |

| [21:43:32] | |Torg|: | all ir remotes just send keypress, no matter who makes them |
| [21:43:38] | |Torg|: | they are by defenition serial devices |
| [21:43:41] | iamlindoro_: | OK, so you're talking about channel change script, which is also just a series of numbers, then an ok/select as appropriate for your box |
| [21:44:04] | Pogonip_new_: | iamlindoro; correct. |
| [21:44:26] | iamlindoro_: | http://www.pastebin.ca/792995 |
| [21:44:41] | iamlindoro_: | Is mine, could be modified for any lirc remote and /dev/lirc#, I suppose |
| [21:45:03] | iamlindoro_: | Supports three digit channels just fine |
| [21:45:49] | Pogonip_new_: | iamlindoro; that's the one i'm looking for thanks. |
| [21:45:59] | iamlindoro_: | np |
| [21:47:01] | Pogonip_new_: | iamlindoro; I do need this if I want to change channels on my dish right? |
| [21:47:15] | iamlindoro_: | You need some sort of script if you want to use any IR blaster, yes |
| [21:48:01] | Pogonip_new_: | iamlindoro; Thanks, I'm having trouble sorting the lirc thing out. |
| [21:48:03] | iamlindoro_: | change the remote name to the remote name as defined in your lircd.conf, change the lircd device name if necessary, change "ok/select" to the similar for your remote def, and it should work |
| [21:48:23] | iamlindoro_: | Presuming you have your dish remote defined in lircd.conf, that is |
| [21:49:34] | Pogonip_new_: | iamlindoro; IRW indicates that the dish remote is working. I'm a little concerned about the multiple signals the IRW seems to detect. |
| [21:49:48] | iamlindoro_: | For example, my lircd.conf contains two remote definitions, mceusb and DCT2524. mceusb is the remote I use to control myth, DCT2524 is the defintion myth uses to emulate my cable box remote |
| [21:50:03] | iamlindoro_: | Pogonip, you don't need to worry about it if they come up a few times, won't be an issue |
| [21:50:53] | Pogonip_new_: | iamlindoro; Seems like we're doing the same thing. The only difference is that instead of DCT2524, I'm using Dish |
| [21:51:22] | Pogonip_new_: | iamlindoro; Want to hear a good one? |
| [21:51:35] | iamlindoro_: | ok |

| [21:52:47] | Pogonip_new_: | iamlindoro; I was part of the intel Viiv team and I got the bug for digital home. Myth is a better solution/ |
| [21:53:05] | iamlindoro_: | Heh. Well good stuff. |
| [21:54:14] | iamlindoro_: | I think it's the best solution out there for the advanced user... although it's definitely becoming more accessible to less saavy people day by day |
| [21:54:44] | iamlindoro_: | minimally, it's very *usable* by just about anyone. Setup is another matter. The fact that my folks can use a myth box and I never have to go fix it is pretty good testament. |
| [21:55:34] | Pogonip_new_: | iamlindoro; I'm and engineer and was responsible for running two Viiv betas. Believe me, myth is nothing compared to viiv. |
| [21:55:43] | omry: | in the setup, how do I remove a storage directory? (or from outside the setup?) |
| [21:56:04] | Pogonip_new_: | iamlindoro; By that I mean, myth is easy to setup compared to Viiv |
| [21:56:14] | iamlindoro_: | omry, mythtv-setup, "remove all storage groups" |
| [21:56:26] | iamlindoro_: | pogonip, yeah, I figured ;) |
| [21:57:15] | omry: | iamlindoro, I don't think I have that option |
| [21:57:22] | iamlindoro_: | Spent about 20 minutes with Vista having it tell me my router was "local only" and "Not Viiv compatible..." so that box sits in the corner to run AnyDVD HD and rip blu-ray discs, which promptly get put on my myth system |
| [21:57:26] | Pogonip_new_: | Has anyone tried to connect mythtv to the MCE Extender? |
| [21:57:43] | omry: | I see 6 options, last is about storage dirs. but nothing about remove there |
| [21:57:44] | iamlindoro_: | omry, are you talking about a recording directory you set up, or one of your other directories? |
| [21:58:06] | iamlindoro_: | When you go into storage dirs, you should see a list of your storage groups followed by one or two more options |
| [21:58:20] | iamlindoro_: | One of which should allow you to remove it |
| [21:58:26] | omry: | iamlindoro, I am in the setup, I entered a directory in 6. Storage dire. |
| [21:58:36] | omry: | (Dire is what I have there, maybe font problem) |

| [22:00:40] | omry: | is there some file that I can edit to remove the extra storage dir? |
| [22:01:00] | omry: | in fact, I am not even sure I need storage dir because I am not going to be recording, just viewing downloaded videos |
| [22:01:13] | iamlindoro_: | Omry, you do not need a storage group |
| [22:01:17] | iamlindoro_: | if you don't plan to record |
| [22:01:30] | dug: | I setup my sound as stated in http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-7.html and I still am getting direct line in sound , it is out of sync and not pausing with the video, what am I doing incorrectly? (I am using pchdtv 3000 analog, with a soundblaster live) line in |
| [22:01:31] | omry: | question is, how do I clean up what I created |
| [22:01:56] | omry: | is there some file I can edit maybe? |
| [22:02:10] | directhex: | iamlindoro_, core's memory bandwidth blows. more cores makes it worse |
| [22:02:48] | iamlindoro_: | so improve memory bandwidth, don't deny me more cores! |
| [22:03:25] | directhex: | iamlindoro_, not happening in any sensible way until 2009 |
| [22:03:57] | iamlindoro_: | Well then I'll take them then, sheesh |
| [22:04:34] | iamlindoro_: | omry, I'm 99% certain you delete storage groups from the storage group option... myth does not save int's config in files, it's all in the database |
| [22:04:46] | Pogonip_new_: | iamlindoro; Once Digital Living Network Alliance (http://www.dlna.org) is adopted this should be much easier. |
| [22:05:13] | iamlindoro_: | heh, looks like fancy uPNP to me |
| [22:06:17] | directhex: | intel's upnp tools are handy |
| [22:06:49] | omry: | I already have my remote configured with lirc for freevo, anything I should do to configure mythtv to use lircd? |
| [22:06:56] | Pogonip_new_: | iamlindoro; pretty much. But it brings the consumer electronics into the uPNP area which will give use the ability to query the status of CE devices. |
| [22:07:16] | iamlindoro_: | omry, symlink your ~/.lircrc to ~/.mythtv/lircrc |
| [22:07:23] | iamlindoro_: | and add myth entries for it, of course |
| [22:07:31] | iamlindoro_: | ie entries in your lircrc for mythtv |
| [22:07:40] | iamlindoro_: | pogonip, ah |
| [22:08:49] | Pogonip_new_: | dirctehex; Are there comparable uPNP tools for linux? |

| [22:11:44] | BULLE: | iamlindoro_: a quick read on the dlna.org site seems to tell me they use uPNP for the functionality, but spec what devices must support in terms of codecs etc, aswell |
| [22:12:23] | Pogonip_new_: | dirctehex; Can you use the tools on linux? |

| [22:21:45] | iamlindoro_: | Yeah, sounds like the nvidia bug... 100.14.11 has fixed it for everyone I've ever heard. Weird. |
