[00:51:10] iamlindoro: you'll get far far fewer channels with a digital tuner than an analog one, if you're in the USA :)

[00:57:08] fbnts: hi all, I have just bought a WinTV nova-t-500 for use with MythTV but am stuggling to setup the backend to use the two tuners
[00:58:02] fbnts: I presume I've gotta set it to mpeg-2 decoder card but not sure what to set the device path to?
[00:59:13] iamlindoro: No. And you should read closer, the card you're referring to is MPEG-2 *encoder* type.  :) It's a DVB card.
[00:59:38] iamlindoro: And if your card is set up properly in linux, it should autodetect.
[00:59:51] iamlindoro: (The DVB device #)
[00:59:57] fbnts: its working fine with xine and mplayer
[01:00:22] iamlindoro: fbnts: So set it up properly in myth (ie as the right card type) and it'll work there too
[01:00:59] fbnts: if I do tzap -r "BBC ONE"
[01:01:00] iamlindoro: Nova-T is a DVB-T card... Hmm, wonder what the card type could be?
[01:01:08] fbnts: then dvbstream -o -ps 600 601 -qam 16 -cr 3_4 | mplayer -
[01:01:09] iamlindoro: Could it be... DVB??!???
[01:01:16] iamlindoro: fbnts: Irrelevant.
[01:01:21] fbnts: it shows fine in the window
[01:01:28] iamlindoro: oh fuck this
[01:01:38] iamlindoro: SET IT UP AS THE RIGHT CARD TYPE (DVB) AND IT WILL WORK FINE
[01:02:22] iamlindoro: I refuse to repeat that a third time
[01:02:40] iamlindoro: Er.. fourth time
[01:02:52] cafuego: And set up index #1 as well, so both tuners work.
[01:03:12] iamlindoro: ^^ Indeed
[01:03:12] cafuego: fbnts: So, DVB-T type, card 0 and card 1.

[02:02:30] wagner: one can claim that you already own the content and its lawful to acquire a backup copy from elsewhere
[02:02:35] justinh: no, it's about making a record collection portable
[02:02:39] Dagmar: wagner: What filesystem was that file on tho'
[02:02:41] mkrufky: niiice
[02:02:53] wagner: the file is on UFS, over NFS
[02:03:03] Dagmar: Ther'es still some nooks and crannies out there where the 2Gb limit can tank seek()
[02:03:16] wagner: it has worked just fine on UFS, over Samba, on windows
[02:03:20] justinh: portable as in, CBA to carry 400 12" singles around
[02:03:37] wagner: i can mount the drive on my laptop and see if it works
[02:04:07] Dagmar: I get hits in google for 2gb limit for NFS when using the userspace NFS
[02:04:31] Dagmar: The kernel-space NFS server doesn't apparently suffer from it
[02:04:44] wagner: this is the kernel space nfs
[02:04:50] wagner: and actually, i was mistaken
[02:04:57] wagner: its connected over samba
[02:05:08] Dagmar: NFS v2 apparently also has it. Note point 3 om this page: http://linuxmafia.com/faq/VALinux-kb/2gb-filesize-limit.html

[02:06:55] justinh: anyway I don't have time to listen to every track – don't wanna be playing something out & then find it's fecked in the middle – as might happen with other people's rips
[02:09:12] Dagmar: It's definitely a "nooks & crannies" kind of thing now tho. Very few places will it be a problem, but seek() is one of those calls that *always* triggers it, where a simple read() might go right to the end of the file with no problem
[02:17:21] wagner: seems it is samba
[02:17:27] wagner: changing to nfs fixed it

[03:05:32] iamlindoro: jellynet: Sounds like a ground fault to me.
[03:05:41] iamlindoro: er ground loop
[03:05:48] jellynet: iamlindoro: ground loop?
[03:05:55] iamlindoro: yep, that's what I said
[03:05:56] dustybin: there comes a point where one needs to differentiation mythtv, irc and real life
[03:08:08] iamlindoro: http://www.siber-sonic.com/electronics/GLoopwhatis.html
[03:08:23] jellynet: iamlindoro: they are all plugged in trhough the same surge protector..
[03:09:17] Gre1: on PA systems we used to float the ground
[03:10:54] iamlindoro: jellynet: all plugged into the same power strip won't prevent ground loops
[03:11:07] iamlindoro: That coaxial cable of yours is another path to ground...
[03:11:41] jellynet: iamlindoro: so if I unplug the coax it might fix the issue?
[03:12:08] iamlindoro: maybe, maybe not-- ground loops can come from all over
[03:12:31] iamlindoro: Might be part of your video output settings, tough to tell

[03:16:57] iamlindoro: Buy a coaxial ground loop isolator
[03:17:17] iamlindoro: And regarding your picture... well, analog video sucks, no two ways about it
[03:18:21] jellynet: iamlindoro: should I play with the refresh rate? got a good starting point for an old tv?
[03:19:59] iamlindoro: jellynet: You should only be screwing around with the refresh rate on a tube TV if you want to make it not work any more
[03:20:34] iamlindoro: For NTSC, it's 60 Hz, end of story
[03:22:34] jellynet: resolution issues?
[03:23:13] iamlindoro: resolution issues shouldn't cause color problems
[03:23:20] iamlindoro: Analog. Video. Sucks.
[03:23:29] iamlindoro: Expecially if you're capturing via analog as well
[03:23:30] jellynet: color is probably the tv
[03:23:32] iamlindoro: Ewww
[03:24:23] dustybin: *colour

[08:05:42] noaXess: aha free to air..
[08:05:43] anykey_: free to air, unencrypted
[08:05:46] noaXess: :)
[08:05:49] noaXess: puh
[08:06:19] noaXess: in th emoment i have winmc2005 with a dual analog tv receiver
[08:06:38] noaXess: i want switch to mythtv.. but need first the correct hardware
[08:06:49] noaXess: and a digital tv-card ;)
[08:07:03] anykey_: noaXess: linuxtv.org/wiki/ -> DVB-C devices
[08:07:53] noaXess: all this are suported in mythtv?
[08:09:31] anykey_: noaXess: yes
[08:09:42] directhex: mythtv supports any linuxtv-powered device
[08:09:44] anykey_: noaXess: seems like TB Wil allows other boxes, so you're good with dvb-c ;)
[08:10:22] anykey_: noaXess: you'll need a CI and a Conax CAM though, so look out for cards that don't support the CI
[08:11:27] anykey_: noaXess: if you want paytv, some channels seem to be FTA
[08:12:21] noaXess: okay
[08:12:40] anykey_: noaXess: I recommend digi-tv.ch ;)

[08:24:10] noaXess: or does the dvb-c cards have another feature to record two things
[08:24:25] noaXess: you have a satellite
[08:24:27] noaXess: okay
[08:24:27] anykey_: noaXess: you can record two programs of the same transponder with multirec
[08:24:31] directhex: you can record more than one channel from the same transponder
[08:24:45] anykey_: noaXess: yeah, cablecom encrypts everything ;)
[08:24:46] noaXess: then i need only a dvb-c with one tuner right?
[08:25:03] noaXess: thats a good information
[08:25:16] noaXess: okay
[08:26:01] anykey_: noaXess: if you want to record SF 1 / SF zwei at the same time, only one card is needed. But if you want HD suisse and SF zwei, you'll need two cards, as those programs are not on the same transponder
[08:26:04] noaXess: what dvb-c hardware decoder will you suggest
[08:26:38] anykey_: noaXess: i'll suggest the satelco easywatch dvb-c light, about 40¤ at dvbshop.net, clone of the KNC1, works like a charm ;)
[08:26:40] noaXess: anykey_: okay
[08:27:23] noaXess: anykey_: but its software decoding then i think i need a real power pc right?
[08:29:14] anykey_: noaXess: for HD you'll need something like a core2duo, yes
[08:29:25] noaXess: hm..
[08:29:33] noaXess: or a hardware decoder
[08:30:50] anykey_: no hardware decoders for HDTV available

[08:41:44] anykey_: DVB-C cards always support HD

[12:31:04] cursty87_: hi
[12:31:05] cursty87_: one question, i need a good command to start my vlc in mythtv, fullscreen and so on, the mplayer was perfect but i don't know a lot of about vlc
[12:31:26] GreyFoxx: I didn't know vlc had a commandline switch to make it full screen
[12:31:37] GreyFoxx: -f
[12:31:41] GreyFoxx: --fullscreen
[12:31:57] GreyFoxx: straight from vlc --help
[12:32:09] cursty87_: vlc -f is fullscreen, but when the movie finisch the vlc is already on the screen
[12:32:27] anykey_: cursty87_: afaik there's a parameter for quitting after finishing, like -q
[12:33:14] cursty87_: ok, is there a function to open the vlc very fast? so a can see the border of the vlc, when the mplayer starts there is no border
[12:33:15] gbee: cursty87_: just out of curiousity, why vlc/mplayer instead of the internal player?
[12:34:37] cursty87_: which internal player
[12:34:50] GreyFoxx: the same one myth uses for recording splayback
[12:34:58] GreyFoxx: the built in player which can play most antyhing :)
[12:35:08] gbee: change the command line from "vlc -f etc" to Internal
[12:35:18] GreyFoxx: if you use the internal player for dvd's and videos you keep the same keyboard controls, OSD and look+feel
[12:35:23] cursty87_: just Internal?
[12:35:30] GreyFoxx: and you still get the ability to bookmark videos and such just like recordings
[12:35:56] gbee: it's the built in media player which mythtv uses by default in 0.19 and 0.20, and for playing back recordings – includes a themed OSD, bookmarking, timestretch etc
[12:36:09] gbee: cursty87_: just Internal (capital I)
[12:36:42] cursty87_: great :-)
[12:36:47] cursty87_: thats what i wanted
[12:37:31] cursty87_: perfect :-)
[12:38:10] gbee: make that, 0.20 and 0.21, I forgot which version we're currently on ;)
[12:39:37] cursty87_: great wonderful perfect :-)

[13:40:11] lanuser: dustybin – there is ffplay but it's not nearly as robust as mplayer with -vo and -ao options
[13:43:37] dustybin: the .mkv file plays ok until there is a lot of detail on the screen
[13:43:47] dustybin: then the video and audio go choppy

[13:44:16] dustybin: Too many video packets in the buffer: (203 in 8414500 bytes).

[15:26:06] wagner: the frontend has always been independent of the backend, its one of the key features of mythtv
[15:26:13] wagner: a UI change isnt going to affect that
[15:27:06] wagner: unless the communication revision changes (although that probably will happen), there is no reason to upgrade the backend
[15:28:10] hadees: wagner, i'm not sure it was always but it has been for a long time
[15:28:49] hadees: communication revisions happen more often then you would expect
[15:29:16] iamlindoro__: Not to mention schema and protocol changes happen at the drop of a hat-- revisions should be identical on both sides
[15:29:23] iamlindoro__: ah, hadees beat me to it
[15:29:26] wagner: right, but im saying the communication revision would be independent of any UI upgrade, it would just happen to occur at the same time
[15:31:34] hadees: wagner, right but the reason to update the backend isn't because of the UI but it is because the protocol gets update all the time, the only way to be sure your backend and frontends can communicate with each other is to have them be the same revision
[15:33:05] hadees: if you don't have them running the exact same revisions weird things can happen, although mythtv is pretty good at saying you have mismatched versions
[15:34:57] |Torg|: from experiance haveing svn code, with the same mythtv protocal version, that differs by less then 8 changes can cause the frontend to segfault when it plays
[15:35:06] |Torg|: and that is WITH the same myth protocol version

[17:42:19] ficofico: beautifull
[17:42:20] iamlindoro__: there is a multiproto patch for myth, and once you use it, you're on your own for support
[17:42:51] ficofico: it's better if I switch to vdr......
[17:42:55] iamlindoro__: because it's not written, supported, or maintained by myth developers

[19:25:35] gpd: I have corruption on Channel 4 – could it be anything other than the signal strength? I tried a SLx Signal booster – but no help :(
[19:28:40] iamlindoro__: gpd, presuming it's a digital tuner, then signal strength or broken streams from the provider are the likely culprits
[19:29:38] iamlindoro__: Boosters/Amps can only do so much, and often just amplify a noisy signal. re-aiming your antenna/dish may help if applicable
[19:29:40] gpd: it is freeview digital
[19:30:11] gpd: dont' have access to the antenna – shared appartment – but i guess my only option now is to call the building manager
[19:30:25] stuarta: does a set top box work?
[19:30:50] gpd: the only other variable is the cable coming into the wall was attached rather crappily to the wall socket – not sure if I fixed it or made it worse
[19:31:18] gpd: stuarta: the TV had trouble finding the channel – and the analog signal is really bad :(
[19:31:33] stuarta: then it sounds like external factors
[19:32:26] |Torg|: gpd to diagnose that you would need to be more specifc, is the snowy, does it have ghosts, are teh white bars though it, or is it simpl;y week signal
[19:32:41] |Torg|: a sginal booster will increate signal strenght but not SNR
[19:32:51] justinh: femon tells you how the signal is :)

[19:33:48] |Torg|: this is a shared line, as in split to many sources?
[19:34:03] |Torg|: err one source, many ends
[19:34:06] gpd: probably – no idea – the antenna is on the roof and there are lots of appartments here
[19:34:34] gpd: anyway – i will phone the relevant people and get it sorted out...
[19:34:48] |Torg|: a guess is that yo uhave bridge taps, ends of cable that are not connected, they dray off signal from the wire
[19:35:09] |Torg|: ampping it AFTER those taps is nearly useless, the closer you can get to the source the better
[19:35:35] A- (A-!i=a@siren.zzq.org) has quit (Remote closed the connection)
[19:35:48] iamlindoro__: gpd, Perchance are you close enough to your towers that an indoor antenna would work?
[19:35:51] A- (A-!i=a@siren.zzq.org) has joined #mythtv-users
[19:35:55] |Torg|: the white bars though it are usualy hamonic distubance from electrical lines. You get those from using cable entenders too much or just simply bad cable
[19:36:14] justinh: most coax aerial installers have ever used is shite
[19:36:53] gpd: iamlindoro__: not tried an indoor antenna – are they generally worth more than a coat hanger? ;)
[19:37:15] iamlindoro__: gpd, Yes, there are some decent ones-- It may help just to have some sort of comparison
[19:37:18] justinh: gpd: maybe your aerial is the wrong group too. freeview muxes are all over the UHF band which is why it's now necessary to have a wideband one
[19:37:50] justinh: if you can beg, borrow or steal a freeview box give that a try & see how it does on the *same* coax outlet
[19:38:12] gpd: justinh: it is odd that BBC and other channels are PERFECT – but channel 4 and ITV and some others are CRAP
[19:38:39] justinh: it's not odd at all since all the freeview muxes are on different frequencies
[19:38:43] gpd: The TV has built in Freeview – and the first time i tried it – it didn't find Channel 4 or other channels
[19:39:14] justinh: voila
[19:39:21] gpd: ok – i will kick some building manager ass (if i can find one)
[19:39:25] justinh: you need to hassle your landlord
[19:39:34] gpd: merci

[19:46:16] conathan: The tuner works on video1, but not video0
[19:46:18] conathan: Since it last worked, I have changed from a 32bit 2.6.25.2 kernel to a 64bit 2.6.26-rc5 kernel, and from a 32bit mythtv 0.21 to a 64bit mythtv 0.21
[19:46:26] Dagmar: conathan: You have nothing plugged into the other one
[19:46:36] keith4: conathan: why?
[19:46:37] Dagmar: conathan: You do not use both video0 and video1
[19:46:46] conathan: PVR-500
[19:46:52] Dagmar: The PVR-500 looks like *two tuner cards* to MythTV.
[19:47:02] conathan: video0 and video1
[19:47:11] conathan: I believe...
[19:47:17] conathan: er, sorry
[19:47:20] Dagmar: You tell it you have a tuner twice, and leave the defaults it picks alone.
[19:47:52] conathan: Dagmar: is this different behavior in .26 then .25 kernel?
[19:48:00] conathan: Dagmar: this was previously working for me
[19:48:09] Dagmar: Then the driver broke for you for .25
[19:48:12] conathan: and I do get picture
[19:48:32] Dagmar: Strangely, it's working for me just fine
[19:49:20] conathan: when you say defaults... I've always had to configure inputs via mythtv-setup
[19:49:37] Dagmar: You shouldn't.
[19:49:57] Dagmar: The moment you tell mythtv-setup you have each tuner, it should be getting the correct defaults.
[19:50:52] Dagmar: I just blew away my database and reconfigured everything less than two weeks ago, so I'm quite sure it's got sane defaults.

[19:52:58] conathan: (and then compiled mythtv to be 64bit)

[19:54:37] conathan: Dagmar: known problems? or just in general not using a rc release?
[19:54:49] Dagmar: conathan: Don't use an rc for anything you want to be STABLE
[19:54:54] Dagmar: This should be a no-brainer.
[19:55:10] conathan: Dagmar: usually is (: unfortunately, I have some research I was working on.
[19:55:20] Dagmar: If the people who made it considered it wholly safe and sound, it would be a release version and not an rc.

[19:56:48] iamlindoro__: To be fair, I'd rather be fed into the alpha tree chipper... better chance of survival
[19:56:57] ** conathan has no credit (: **
[19:57:05] Dagmar: See... suddenly everyone knows which of the three is least-likely to work correctly.
[19:57:29] conathan: LFS developer for about 7 years, and I'm not expecting stable operations.
[19:57:39] stuarta: heh
[19:57:53] Dagmar: conathan: Then you should recognize my name and know the first thing I'm going to say is "Look in the sysog for anything shifty/suspicious"
[19:57:59] Dagmar: s/sysog/syslog/;
[19:58:14] conathan: Dagmar: that's why I asked the i2c question, actually
[19:58:20] asmussen: Wait, does this hypothetical tree chipper have safety features to automatically shut off in case something inappropriate is fed into it? If so, I'd like to change my answer.
[19:58:37] conathan: it seems that rmmod ivtv and modprobing it doesn't always create an associated i2c interface
[19:58:46] Dagmar: That would be breakage then
[19:59:00] conathan: most likely,
[19:59:19] conathan: there were some v4l updates in the recent rc update.
[19:59:53] Dagmar: Well, I can at least tell you that 2.6.25.4 works finne here
[19:59:59] conathan: 64bit?
[20:00:02] conathan: or 32bit?
[20:00:09] Dagmar: Dunno what will happen if you're trying to use it with 64-bit, but that shouldn't matter.
[20:00:13] stuarta: 64bit is fine too
[20:00:17] conathan: alright.
[20:00:23] stuarta: most of us devs use 64bit
[20:00:30] conathan: BTW, mythbackend 32bit keeps saying unknown commands when using a 64bit kernel
[20:00:35] conathan: ioctl32
[20:00:39] Dagmar: Anything that would be likely to break there would be more likely to break because the firmware wouldn't deal with 64-bit, but I've heard no complaints along those line.

[20:01:16] Dagmar: So you can report that to whoever manages your distribution.
[20:01:47] Dagmar: Mainly I think yer 32-bit compatibility stuff is broken to
[20:01:50] conathan: I manage it (:
[20:01:50] conathan: source based build from scratch

[20:02:59] justinh: arghh wtf is it with online tshirt printers who make you facking *email* designs?
[20:03:00] Dagmar: You didn't think thet there might be problems talking to the 64-bit kernel with a 32-bit binary?
[20:03:23] Dagmar: o.O
[20:03:24] stuarta: Dagmar: that does work, but i think you need to build the libc differently
[20:03:30] PatrickDK: there shouldn't be any problems using a 32bit prog on 64bit kernel
[20:03:40] conathan: Dagmar: didn't think there would be, at the time.
[20:03:40] stuarta: i run the 32bit firefox on 64bit in the office
[20:03:43] PatrickDK: if you have 32bit libs installed
[20:04:07] conathan: only problem I can think of, is my kernel headers are from 2.6.19 era

[20:53:07] iamlindoro__: flith1, That's how your broadcaster is sending them
[20:53:25] iamlindoro__: flith1, they rely on old/shitty TVs to overscan this so that most people don't see it

[20:54:35] sphery: flith1: you can apply a crop filter per-channel
[20:54:48] sphery: i.e. crop 8 pixels from the top to get rid of the data

[20:55:43] flith1: sphery: nice! where is that in the setup? I can't find it?
[20:56:26] flith1: kleetus: the hdhomerun is awesome so far! so awesome that there's not that much to say... setup was as easy as plugging it in, and it works exactly as expected. fairly rare these days I'd say

[20:59:40] sphery: flith1: if you mean that the black bars are about 50 pixels on top and bottom, that's probably not part of the video (i.e. it's the black background Myth is painting to allow showing a 16:9 image on a 4:3 set or whatever)

[21:06:19] ShiftyPowers: guys anyone know a first thing about troubleshooting this http://www.pastebin.ca/1045398? I'm trying to compile SVN but can't for the life of me
[21:06:24] Dagmar: justinh: I have to step in an vouch for clever, man
[21:06:24] ShiftyPowers: and I can't figure out the error
[21:06:27] clever: video ram is high speed stuff:P
[21:06:38] sphery: justinh: I use a RAM drive as swap :)
[21:06:40] Dagmar: LAst week he talked to some newbie for 10 minutes and didn't once suggest anything insane to him, so there's progress being made.
[21:06:41] clever: so the 3d data can be computed fast and produce high fps
[21:06:53] stuarta: what about http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_Use_wang_as_swap
[21:06:59] clever: sphery: that sounds scary:P

[21:07:58] sphery: ShiftyPowers: I hope you mean compiling 0.21-fixes SVN, not trunk SVN
[21:08:10] ShiftyPowers: unfortunately it's trunk
[21:08:12] ShiftyPowers: i know
[21:08:14] ShiftyPowers: it's crazy
[21:08:16] ShiftyPowers: why am I doing it
[21:08:21] ShiftyPowers: but now i'm in this dilemma
[21:08:21] iamlindoro__: sphery, ah, but trunk must be several hundred BETTER!
[21:08:26] clever: im running trunk also and its pretty stable
[21:08:29] sphery: ShiftyPowers: You do realize that trunk isn't really stable for production, right?
[21:08:35] iamlindoro__: it's got MOAR RVISIONZ
[21:08:38] clever: sphery: its stable enough for me:P
[21:08:43] ShiftyPowers: i know that sphery, this is mostly for my own messing around
[21:08:48] ShiftyPowers: trying to troubleshoot it now
[21:08:56] ShiftyPowers: and i've gotten that same error for some time
[21:09:00] iamlindoro__: clever, except for the bi-nightly visit to #mythtv-users to complain about some element crashing for you?

[21:09:18] justinh: what isn't running can't hog memory!
[21:09:24] clever: its running just fine right now
[21:09:27] sphery: ShiftyPowers: The problem is most likely due to old versions of MythTV libs on your system (i.e. 0.21-fixes or whatever)
[21:09:34] clever: i just finished watching an episode
[21:09:40] ShiftyPowers: sphery, ahh i see
[21:09:47] iamlindoro__: clever, stable is running for *months* without a single crash, not hours
[21:09:48] clever: MythTV Version  : 17442M
[21:09:48] clever: MythTV Branch  : trunk
[21:09:57] ShiftyPowers: but there is no way to compile without breaking the existing mythtv install right?
[21:10:02] clever: i still have that 100% system usage bug
[21:10:10] clever: which people have claimed was fixed several times over
[21:10:12] ShiftyPowers: my system works great (other than mythwelcome not responding to lirc)

[21:10:46] clever: but i cant see any problems if i just leave it recording by itself for 2 weeks like i will be doing soon
[21:10:46] sphery: ShiftyPowers: Can't say, "no way," but I will say, "no way that's worth the trouble." Best bet is to compile on some machine that doesn't already have Myth on it (i.e. a separate, dedicated development box)
[21:11:03] ShiftyPowers: ah that makes sense

[21:11:50] iamlindoro__: I think it's amusing how the like minded band together here.
[21:12:00] ShiftyPowers: sphery, what i was ultimately hoping to find fixed was this bug http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/5350
[21:12:01] sphery: ShiftyPowers: you're saying your 0.21-fixes system is the one that "works great (other than mythwelcome not responding to lirc)"
[21:12:10] dustybin: iamlindoro__: :P

[21:13:13] clever: breaking the colorkey
[21:13:14] ShiftyPowers: sphery, :)
[21:13:28] ShiftyPowers: i know, if there is an easy way to reverto to 0.21-fixes i'm down for it

[21:13:30] sphery: on?
[21:13:36] ShiftyPowers: sphery, how do i check that?

[21:24:58] flith1: err guys and gals sorry
[21:25:40] sphery: ShiftyPowers: If you do decide to do a partial (new-host) restore, you may be interested in trying some scripts for backup/restore. http://misc.thirdcontact.com/MythTV/database_ . . . rg_backup.pl and http://misc.thirdcontact.com/MythTV/database_ . . . g_restore.pl
[21:25:47] sutula: flith1: I don't know RE Myth, but think you can request a Schedules Direct update on their website
[21:26:07] sphery: ShiftyPowers: though you may be better off doing the backup manually to get --skip-set-charset

[21:26:35] flith1: sutula: cool looking into that
[21:26:53] sphery: You can set up the backup in a cron job or init script, though, for long-term usage.
[21:27:17] ShiftyPowers: sphery, i may just do a backup and recompile
[21:27:23] ShiftyPowers: might be cleaner no?
[21:27:39] sphery: And I appreciate any feedback you have on the scripts. http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/engine? . . . ;list=mythtv
[21:27:44] iamlindoro__: ShiftyPowers, What he's getting at is the whole database won't work on an older version
[21:27:52] ShiftyPowers: iamlindoro, oh
[21:27:54] ShiftyPowers: i get it
[21:27:57] ShiftyPowers: sorry i missed that
[21:28:18] ShiftyPowers: I'll look into the scripts
[21:28:19] iamlindoro__: ShiftyPowers, and while I haven't clicked his link, I think he's pointing you at the section that saves all your rules, schedules, etc., and allows you to import them into a fresh database
[21:28:29] directhex: smurfs movie.
[21:28:31] directhex: live action.
[21:28:36] sphery: Yeah, the "new hardware" backup is to get rid of most of the DB (so it's all correct) and only copy over the minimum data possible that allows restoring the most useful info.
[21:28:37] ShiftyPowers: iamlindoro, gotcha
[21:28:59] iamlindoro__: directhex, Smurfette getting railed 24/7
[21:29:01] ShiftyPowers: the one part i'm most worried about is my OTA HD configuration settings
[21:29:05] ShiftyPowers: that was a pain to set up
[21:29:16] ShiftyPowers: and the only thing i'd be really sad about losing
[21:29:20] sphery: That you'd need to reconfigure.
[21:29:21] directhex: iamlindoro__, live action smurfs is even worse than live action tentacle porn
[21:29:24] iamlindoro__: That pain you feel is the one associated with using trunk prematurely :)
[21:29:40] sphery: Though, doing so can be as easy as global search/replace in a text editor.
[21:29:51] ShiftyPowers: iamlindoro, i know – i'm an idiot but now i feel i'm stuck in trunk and need to figure out a way out of it
[21:29:52] ShiftyPowers: :)
[21:30:10] iamlindoro__: ShiftyPowers, Understood, we've all been there, only teasing you
[21:30:12] iamlindoro__: :)
[21:30:12] sphery: ShiftyPowers: how much old TV do you have recorded?
[21:30:28] ShiftyPowers: sphery, not much at all, i actually don't keep much old TV around at all

[21:30:37] ShiftyPowers: maybe 3 or 4 shows at a time seriously
[21:30:59] sphery: ShiftyPowers: another option is a completely new database with 0.21-fixes and just throw the episodes you have into MythVideo.
[21:31:20] sphery: or, if you really want, use myth.rebuild_database.pl (at your own risk) to import the old recordings
[21:31:23] ShiftyPowers: i could honestly get rid of my recordings
[21:31:26] ShiftyPowers: it's not the end of the workd
[21:31:42] ShiftyPowers: it would be most important to just find a clean way to restore my OTA HD settings
[21:31:53] sphery: How much recorded history (i.e. how long have you been recording TV/teaching Myth what you've already seen)?

[21:32:13] ShiftyPowers: oh that's been a while, maybe a year
[21:32:25] sphery: ShiftyPowers: The OTA HD settings should be proper when you do a channel scan. That means the /only/ manual configuration you need to do is xmltvid mapping.
[21:32:31] psofa_: anyone knows if its possible for mythfrontend to read controls from stdin? it would make testing much easier
[21:32:43] sphery: ShiftyPowers: With creative use of mysql and a text editor, you can automate that process.
[21:32:51] psofa_: as in keyboard input
[21:33:11] ShiftyPowers: sphery, would it be possible to dump the current database so that I can reference it as i'm rebuilding the new one in fixes?
[21:33:29] ShiftyPowers: so i can refer to the xmltvid's associated with different channels from the channel scan

[21:36:27] ShiftyPowers: sphery, i think what i'm going to do is just reinstall with fixes
[21:36:31] |Torg|: flith1: SD knows which channel is what by xmltvid, and its perfectly normal to have chanels 4.1, 4.2 etc
[21:36:36] ShiftyPowers: and suffer the loss of shows/data

[21:38:24] clever: took me 3 seconds to fix

[21:38:57] sutula: stupid question, I know, but when I install the new PVR-350 tonight, that has actual TV output, does all of mythfrontend display on my TV (assuming I configure it that way)? Or do I still need a monitor? Is the TV output considered another X display device, or only for video?

[21:39:44] GreyFoxx: I've been doing some mods to my one here, so I'll incorperate those changes

[21:56:40] clever: GreyFoxx: yeah that could have it uses
[21:56:51] GreyFoxx: stu: I thought that was a config optiion in the FE settings, but something that assumes the OSD doesn't try to force it
[21:57:07] GreyFoxx: and also depends on fi the subtitles are bitmaps or actual text
[21:57:12] Anduin: There is if you mean CC/TT
[21:57:22] Dagmar: GreyFoxx: So that we can tell people to hit their telnet port and it'll tell us they're using version 0.20.2?  ;)
[21:57:29] clever: GreyFoxx: what i think we could add next is to 'query recordings' and display the list localy thru curses
[21:57:40] clever: a plain text list will scroll faster

[22:02:18] stu: they look fine in mplayer
[22:02:27] stu: but internal player makes em quite ugly
[22:03:05] sphery: The problem is probably that you have low-resolution AVI's compared to your display resolution. Myth draws the text on the unscaled image and then scales the image, so it can look ugly/too big or whatever.
[22:03:44] clever: yeah ive transcoded a show to a horid 16x16 before
[22:03:50] clever: and it made the OSD look like shit:P

[22:12:03] phatmonkey (phatmonkey!n=ben@scooby.firshman.co.uk) has quit ()
[22:12:14] iamlindoro__: The myth interface will show up. The 350 out is, IIRC, a framebuffer device. It is strongly discouraged to use it (rather than your GPUs TV out)
[22:12:24] GreyFoxx: # query version
[22:12:24] GreyFoxx: VERSION: 17392M/trunk 0.22.20080512–2 40 QT/4.3.4
[22:12:31] GreyFoxx: That should be enough info
[22:12:45] asmussen: There is an X driver for the 350. I used that for a while on my first myth setup, but there are drawbacks.

[22:14:28] psofa_: GreyFoxx, is that my answer? im using fixes
[22:14:51] sutula: iamlindoro__: Hmmm...maybe not a wise purchase, then. I don't have any other TV out on that computer, so was hoping the PVR-350 would make for a cheap, standard TV interface for a front-end for an older computer
[22:15:26] GreyFoxx: pso: I didn't see your Q, so no, that has nothing to do with you :)
[22:15:32] asmussen: What kind of inputs does your TV have, sutula?
[22:15:36] psofa_: lol i feared so
[22:15:39] sutula: asmussen: can you point me to the potholes?
[22:15:41] sphery: Hmmm. Figured out the mysql client option I was trying to remember for ShiftyPowers--it's -s. Just a couple minutes too late.
[22:15:53] sutula: asmussen: It's old stuff...svideo is best
[22:16:04] sphery: mysql -umythtv -p mythconverg -se 'SELECT "UPDATE channel SET xmltvid =", xmltvid, "WHERE callsign = '\''", callsign, "'\'';" FROM channel WHERE xmltvid != "";' | sed -e "s/\('\t\|\t'\)/'/" -e 's/\t/ /g' > ~/update_xmltvids.sql

[22:16:30] Penfold (Penfold!n=mike@pdpc/supporter/sustaining/Penfold) has quit ("This computer has gone to sleep")
[22:17:23] asmussen: Well, it's been a while since I ran a 350 as an output device, but as I recall some of the drawbacks included no XV support, and it didn't perform well when using some of the plugins, like mythgame. I'm just going from memory though, it's been years.
[22:17:55] asmussen: There are some super cheap video cards that have svideo out, though.
[22:18:02] GreyFoxx: wonder if I should apply this to 0.21-fixes too... It's not really a "fix"
[22:18:19] sutula: asmussen: OK...thanks much
[22:19:18] asmussen: If you are just going to watch SD TV (No high def) and aren't planning on using any of the plugins, it might do ok for you anyway. It's more complicated to setup than just using TV out from a regular video card too.
[22:19:39] ** sutula nods **
[22:21:14] sphery: GreyFoxx: think the DB schema version would be useful there, too? Only reason I didn't create a patch to put it in the --version output was because we don't have a MythContext (nor DB access) when doing --version output.
[22:21:35] GreyFoxx: spher: absolutely
[22:21:40] GreyFoxx: I'll add that too before I commit it
[22:22:18] sphery: if jams's (I think it was his) about dialog patch with version info in the frontend goes in, I'll probably mod it to include DB schema version, too.
