[20:22:33] | gbee: | don't think there is anything preventing 5.1 on SD content |
[20:22:42] | janneg: | justinh: that's exactly my point, why would I want 5.1 if the signal is only mono (exagarating) |
[20:23:01] | janneg: | gbee: we have 5.1 over DVB SD |
[20:23:03] | justinh: | only backwards-thinking Tv companies prevent it gbee. in europe Ac3 audio is common on DVB-T |
[20:23:16] | abqjp: | My local PBS station occasionally shows "Soundstage", but they downmix the DD5.1 to DD2.0 to save bandwidth for their three subchannels. It does not sound near as good — although I am not entirely sure why. |
[20:23:47] | gbee: | janneg: yeah, just don't think I've ever seen it in the UK – but then I wouldn't notice since I don't have a 5.1 setup |
[20:24:06] | justinh: | anyway – you're gonna be getting *HD* *video* *capture* into a PC – 5.1 or no 5.1.. no small beans there IMHO |
[20:24:42] | abqjp: | Yup, I still have one on order. I just hope it all ends up being worth the money! |
[20:24:43] | justinh: | ok so maybe Hauppauge's info could've been a tad more specific about the DD.. |

[20:25:24] | gbee: | can't see the point in HD Capture, at least not in the UK and HDCP may well prevent it in other regions eventually |
[20:25:31] | justinh: | janneg: I agree with your point though – I remember thinking wtf use is 5.1 on a camcorder. maybe the lens motor noise goes from front to back ;) |
[20:25:32] | iamlindoro: | "Boo, the S-video in is in the front!" |
[20:26:44] | justinh: | iamlindoro: it's such a fugly box I'd keep it hidden anyway |

[20:27:33] | abqjp: | Both Directv and DISH (in the USA) now have every channel I watch in HD — with the exception of BBCamerica. BBCamerica is supposed to go HD sometime this year. |
[20:27:41] | janneg: | justinh: lol |
[20:28:04] | janneg: | and the box is ugly, I'm glad I got just the board |
[20:28:06] | justinh: | hell even film audio is mostly mono on set |
[20:28:17] | justinh: | post ftw! |
[20:28:24] | gbee: | janneg: ... yeah, I did add the icon so I should have remembered that ;) |
[20:28:26] | iamlindoro: | Too bad so little of the BBC content is HD to begin with, having BBC America in HD will be mostly-useless |
[20:28:56] | gbee: | it will improve, slowly |
[20:29:02] | abqjp: | True. |
[20:29:04] | justinh: | iamlindoro: hotel babylol, Planet Earth, er... torchwood.. hmmm |
[20:29:17] | iamlindoro: | You can watch male timetravelers make out with male timetravelers in HDDDDDDD |
[20:29:18] | justinh: | Eurovision! :D |
[20:29:29] | abqjp: | Torchwood is available in HD on HDnet. I have not decided if I like that show or not. |
[20:29:30] | gbee: | Heroes (not that it's BBC content, just shown on the BBC) |
[20:29:40] | justinh: | you can watch the UK phail in aitch dee! |
[20:30:10] | gbee: | justinh: would have liked to see the Chelsea flower show in HD – but I'm still waiting for my card >:( |

[20:31:11] | justinh: | I've had patchy luck buying stuff from EU. was lucky to get my £800 back from a german sseller of dbox2 machines |
[20:31:37] | justinh: | never, ever again I swear |
[20:31:58] | gbee: | website says they are moving premises and hence any delays, but it's still shoddy that over a week after the order they've yet to dispatch despite taking my money |
[20:31:58] | justinh: | yet another reminder I still need to put those damnable s100 boxes on the bay |
[20:32:05] | abqjp: | Planet Earth is on DiscoveryHD, but with Sigourney Weaver instead of David Attenborough. I also think the USA version is shorter. |
[20:32:06] | gbee: | haven't replied to my emails either |
[20:32:21] | justinh: | gbee: hardly a glowing recommendation then |
[20:32:31] | gbee: | abqjp: there is some joke about attention spans there |
[20:32:55] | justinh: | freesat will catch on like a gorse bush covered in wet gloss paint so I expect dvb-s & s2 cards to take hold too |
[20:33:09] | gbee: | think I'd prefer Attenborough |
[20:33:14] | gbee: | doing the narration! |
[20:33:28] | justinh: | prefer anybody to an american for narration tbh |
[20:33:44] | justinh: | maybe James Earl Jones.. |
[20:33:58] | abqjp: | I have seen one of the episodes with Attenborough — it is better. |
[20:34:21] | abqjp: | Sigourney Weaver voice is too monotone. |
[20:34:31] | justinh: | BBC natural history films.. just can't imagine them without Attenborough |
[20:34:32] | gbee: | I could make an exception for Mr Vadar |
[20:34:32] | iamlindoro: | The Blu-ray version is thankfully the original-- was weirded out when I saw it on TV and heard Ellen Ripley |

[20:38:28] | justinh: | not for yer blog – just for own reference :P |

[21:03:13] | justinh: | duh |
[21:03:49] | Dibblah: | Of course, the signal can be more tightly controlled on a small PCB rather than echoey cables. But still, it seems odd. |
[21:04:08] | justinh: | quantisation noise is more likely a factor than cable ringing |

[22:09:07] | famicom: | and none of them do as advertised |
[22:09:37] | gbee: | since you asked (even if that's not what you meant) |
[22:10:16] | directhex: | famicom, lag in what way? |
[22:10:35] | gizmobay: | thanks famicom I'd like to use xvmc for both sd and hd since the guide is much faster but I want a color OSD |
[22:10:57] | famicom: | gizmobay just be glad it works |

[22:11:53] | famicom: | yeah well |

[22:16:48] | directhex: | xvmc is a crap API. until that's fixed, or a radically different path like GLSL is taken, there'll be no decent gpu-accelerated video decoding on linux |

[22:17:04] | gbee: | directhex: yes, we get that Ati driver support isn't as complete as Nvidia, but I'm finding a suprising number of people who think the current drivers/cards actually produce better results that the nvidia ones – is Ati in linux perfect? No, but it's not that bad either |
[22:17:21] | famicom: | actually, so far it's the only driver that works |

[22:24:46] | clever: | ive got 3 ati cards under linux |
[22:24:53] | clever: | all of them work as a basic frame buffer for X |
[22:25:03] | clever: | the newest can handle 3d stuff(compiz) |
[22:25:13] | famicom: | they got working hdmi |
[22:25:16] | famicom: | that;s all i asked for |
[22:25:19] | clever: | and the tvout bearly works on the middle one(brightness off the scale) |

[22:29:39] | famicom: | i should |
[22:29:42] | gbee: | clever: but how old are those cards and just which drivers were you using? :) Past experience with ATi cards and drivers is pretty irrelevant to the discussion of what they are like now, it's like comparing Skoda's from 15 years ago to the current ones |
[22:29:59] | famicom: | actually, the one thing i noticed |
[22:30:29] | gbee: | abqjp: no, alsa driver bug which probably won't get fixed for a while :( I'm going to try getting the OSS guys to add support :) |
[22:30:30] | clever: | 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2x (rev 02) |
[22:30:42] | famicom: | that eg between 8.42 and 8.5 there were some massive improvements |
[22:30:43] | clever: | gbee: that card(with the 'ati' driver) can bearly get tvout |
[22:30:53] | famicom: | clever no shit |
[22:30:55] | clever: | gbee: and if i switch from text to gui too much the system hardlocks |
[22:30:59] | famicom: | thats a fucking onboard chipset |

[22:31:17] | clever: | 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV250 [Mobility FireGL 9000] (rev 02) |
[22:31:19] | gbee: | clever: 'ati' driver is the open source one, I don't expect that to work :) |
[22:31:19] | famicom: | You cannot compare that to a PCI-e card |
[22:31:39] | clever: | that laptop can do full 3d accel for compiz(but not use xv as a texture) |
[22:31:44] | clever: | it has bearly any problems |

[22:32:17] | clever: | thats the older one in a 2.4 box |
[22:32:18] | abqjp: | My frontend has an Intel G45 with HDMI. I have never actually even tried to use the HDMI. |
[22:32:27] | abqjp: | s/G45/G35/ |
[22:32:32] | clever: | it 'worked' with X but was horidly laggy because the system overall only had 64mb ram |
[22:32:48] | clever: | i could double my ram if i used the vid ram for swap! |
[22:32:51] | gbee: | famicom: even my integrated Radeon x1250 works well, so it's not really a question of onboard versus discrete, just a question of which driver you try and the age of the card (thus support) |
[22:33:33] | famicom: | could be |
[22:33:40] | famicom: | but i'm strung out on amfetamines |
[22:33:44] | gbee: | abqjp: some of the alsa HDMI support works, the bug which prevents mine working seems specific to the chipset used |
[22:33:49] | clever: | a newer laptop with an nvidia card is able to use xv as a 3d texture |
[22:34:02] | clever: | which brings alot of fun new stuff out in compiz |
[22:34:14] | famicom: | compiz is useless fluff |
[22:34:30] | clever: | i can practicaly double my screen space with transparency on compiz |
[22:34:46] | famicom: | ewll |
[22:34:57] | famicom: | all i ever cared about was having transparent terminals |
[22:35:01] | clever: | but it does seem to leak ram alot too |
[22:35:07] | famicom: | within a non transparent window decoration |
[22:35:13] | clever: | the X server is eating a ton of ram |
[22:35:15] | gbee: | have to agree with that, I've turned it on/off a few times on my nvidia laptop, but at the end of the day it didn't add anything useful |

[22:37:15] | famicom: | i got the exact opposite |

[22:39:01] | clever: | colors going crazy |
[22:39:04] | directhex: | i have no trouble on that front, unless a GL app wants fullscreen, then things can be a bit weird |
[22:39:24] | directhex: | but i have trouble as it is when a fullscreen GL app gets its focus stolen, compiz or no |
[22:39:26] | gbee: | abqjp: I found the image quality, especially the colours to be better with HDMI – unsuprising maybe, but the difference was incredible – black was black with HDMI, but grey with VGA |
[22:39:29] | abqjp: | Did the problem with the OpenGL video renderer ever get fixed? I am talking about having to re-start X between each show. |
[22:39:29] | clever: | but it only takes a few seconds to stop compiz |
[22:39:53] | directhex: | abqjp, nvidia bug. i believe it's fixed, i don't remember having that problem recently |
[22:40:24] | gbee: | the TV is only 720p and I'm feeding it a 720 (768) signal |
[22:40:33] | abqjp: | gbee: My next TV will be able to accept 1080P via HDMI. I am looking forward to that. |
[22:41:38] | clever: | crap |
[22:41:44] | directhex: | one day i will afford a 1080p set |
[22:41:44] | clever: | i got a 1 hour recording of tv listing! |
[22:42:08] | gbee: | directhex: I'll wait for the prices to come down to sane levels first :) |
[22:43:24] | gbee: | even then, I've never seen the attraction of TVs big enough to actually need 1080p |
[22:43:49] | directhex: | gbee, a 37" 1080p set from a brand name is less now than i paid for 26" 768 samsung |

[23:37:42] | MrGandalf: | I have a stupid user question.. I have 5 tuners (DVB), 1–4 are connected to static dishes and tuner 5 to a rotor. I don't want tuner 5 to EVER record. I have recpriority set to -50 for all inputs on that tuner. |
[23:38:14] | jpabq (jpabq!n=john@nat3.blueskytours.com) has joined #mythtv-users | |
[23:38:28] | MrGandalf: | Now, give Myth would like to select the highest tuner for a given channel (5 in this case), assuming the recpriority is -50, would Myth's scheduler look to tuner 4 instead? |
