[00:00:26] clever: it now has gnome firefox wine mythtv and everythign else i might need:P
[00:00:50] abarber: ah, wine
[00:00:58] abarber: i forgot i need to install that
[00:01:07] clever: one of my desktops is also partialy network booting(grub kernel initrd storged on hdd) and is a slave backend to record thru a frame grabber
[00:01:35] abarber: jesus clever
[00:01:40] abarber: got enough computers?
[00:01:52] clever: right now i have 8 running
[00:01:56] abarber: hahahahaha
[00:02:02] clever: 3 are running off the same nfs root
[00:02:02] wagnerrp_: yeah, the rest of us think hes excessive too
[00:02:18] abarber: i thought i was crazy wanting 3
[00:02:23] abarber: myth, desktop, NAS
[00:02:38] clever: theP4 holds all the recordings and is a frontend
[00:02:50] clever: media is the master, pvr150 recorded, myth mysqld

[00:03:12] clever: dadxp is the framegrabber slave
[00:03:29] clever: olddell d600 are nfsroot frontends(and X servers for misc stuff)
[00:03:33] abarber: oh, while there are not too many people here to flame me....
[00:03:38] abarber: what's the HD update?
[00:03:44] abarber: no support yet?
[00:03:48] clever: redhat9 and newrouter are servers for other stuff
[00:04:02] clever: then theres the winblows acer system
[00:04:06] clever: thats all 8
[00:04:13] abarber: impressive
[00:04:39] clever: 3 on the desk upstairs
[00:04:54] clever: 2 in my bedroom(laptop on bed and headless master beside dresser)
[00:05:03] clever: then 3 headless systems in other rooms
[00:06:32] abarber: so no HD info?
[00:07:05] clever: i dont get any hd

[00:07:19] clever: just a pvr150 and a bttv grabber

[00:07:51] wagnerrp_: all those machines for a mere two streams
[00:08:13] abarber: i was just wondering if anyone is using the HD-PVR yet
[00:08:19] clever: 2 of them have never ran mythtv programs
[00:08:21] abarber: and if there is support for it
[00:08:25] wagnerrp_: check out #hdpvr
[00:08:37] clever: and the rest(that dont record) are either storing data and/or being a frontend
[00:08:44] clever: and handle misc gui progs when im in that room
[00:08:53] abarber: thanks wagner
[00:09:14] wagnerrp_: trunk has nearly complete support for the hdpvr

[00:09:30] wagnerrp_: i believe the only thing still lacking is IR support
[00:09:43] wagnerrp_: aside from polish and stability
[00:09:56] iamlindoro__: and 5.1 support
[00:10:10] iamlindoro__: although the driver already supports that, they just haven't released the firmware yet-- probably this week, though
[00:10:13] wagnerrp_: seems he already left
[00:10:18] iamlindoro__: oh feck 'im
[00:10:34] iamlindoro__: He couldn't get LIRC figured out this week, the HD-PVR isn't for him yet anyway
[00:10:50] wagnerrp_: oh, so 5.1 isnt even available under windows?
[00:10:54] iamlindoro__: correct
[00:11:21] neddy (neddy!n=john@nat/sun/x-085e8c28e681cca4) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:11:25] wagnerrp_: 5.1 seems simple to implement
[00:11:35] wagnerrp_: since its just a stream copy

[00:16:43] iamlindoro__: yeah, just wasn't done I guess, but the firmware is in developer hands and it works with the driver, so looks like it should just be a matter of a couple of days

[00:26:59] clever: how would i go about setting up a slave to start before a recording using wake on lan?
[00:27:22] clever: it seems simple for the master to just poke the slave to life when the schedule needs it
[00:29:15] clever: the guides i read so far are more for setting a bios timer to wake itself
[00:29:36] clever: which sounds like more work/risk and cant addjust itself for schedule changes
[00:30:33] clever: then theres the bigger problem, dual boot that defaults to windows:P
[00:32:42] fryfrog: clever: i think that the slave backend settings should have (or is it master?) a spot for "command to wake slave" and you'd throw your WOL tool there
[00:33:12] clever: that sounds more like the command to wake the master/mysql server
[00:33:22] gbee (gbee!n=stuartm@cpc3-derb9-0-0-cust581.leic.cable.ntl.com) has left #mythtv-users ("Gone")
[00:33:23] clever: which the frontends will use to wake the master up remotely
[00:33:44] clever: what i need is to have the slave waken when it needs to record

[00:43:51] AndyCap: and so the spiral of abuse continues
[00:44:04] venger: I have partially figured out a weird issue where my HD access light blinks 1–2 times a second, while mythfrontend is idle at the main menu. I can't explain why though. If I disable the sata controller where my DVD-ROM hooks up to then the access light stops blinking at the main menu and as soon as i reboot and enable it, it starts blinking again at the main menu. I removed mythdvd as a test but that didn't change anything.
[00:44:04] venger: My guess is there may be some type of media monitor maybe?
[00:48:11] clever: venger: you could stop guessing and ask linux:P
[00:49:00] clever: venger: change over to root and echo a 1 into /proc/sys/vm/block_dump
[00:49:05] venger: why when it does not do it when mythfrontend isn't running?
[00:49:16] clever: it will now dump every single sector access to the kernel log
[00:49:23] clever: and say who and what
[00:49:39] clever: cd /proc/sys/vm
[00:49:52] clever: echo 1 > block_dump ;sleep 30; echo 0 > block_dump
[00:50:11] clever: it can get spammy so i try to have it shut off after a short delay then i can review the logs in peace
[00:50:46] clever: Aug 28 19:50:43 theP4 kernel: [1119763.015675] java(18557): WRITE block 1023455944 on dm-0

[00:51:15] LanUser: Hello – anyone else have an issue with lirc_serial and 2.6.26?
[00:51:35] clever: LanUser: im having trouble on 2.6.24!
[00:51:36] Dagmar: This r not lirc
[00:52:07] LanUser: No one is in #lirc and everyone here uses it so I took a stab in the dark
[00:52:17] clever: i moved the blaster and card to a 2.6.22 system just to get recording fixed
[00:54:35] cesman: LanUser: perhaps it is worth taking a gander at the LIRC mailing list?
[00:55:06] LanUser: cesman: I've been through them, found one possible solution, but I don't understand the fix so I was hoping to get a tip or two
[00:56:09] LanUser: clever: are you getting this ? --> Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter
[00:56:31] clever: recompile the module
[00:56:54] clever: and check dmesg|tail
[00:57:15] LanUser: I have, with CVS, 0.8.3 and checked dmesg|tail
[00:57:32] mzb_d800: venger: doesn't mythtv monitor the dvd-drive to see if you've inserted a disk? ... even without mythdvd running there's still a setting somewhere

[01:10:40] mzb_d800: I'd probably go as far as betting it's DVDOnInsertDVD setting in the db
[01:10:56] clever: theres 2 ways to detect a disk being inserted
[01:11:24] clever: poke the drive every now and then or use the /tmp/mythtv_media fifo
[01:11:43] clever: which a hal script(i think) writes to durring the insert event
[01:12:09] clever: the fifo uses less cpu power but takes extra work to setup

[01:20:41] J-e-f-f-A: [ot] Wow, on-board gfx have come a long way... I've got another box with an on-board Nvidia with HDMI output, just bought an HDMI cable and an HDMI-DVI adapter... absolutely stunning picture quality...
[01:22:58] venger: what chipset J-e-f-f-A
[01:24:15] J-e-f-f-A: venger: Checking... it's an MSI board...
[01:25:37] venger: mzb_d800, DVDOnInsertDVD=0 in table Settings, i assume that is false
[01:25:49] mzb_d800: hmm
[01:26:04] venger: i'm pretty sure that something is accessing the DVD though because that light will still light up in that event
[01:26:13] mzb_d800: check the device setting then
[01:26:27] venger: i tried clevers suggestion and the only kjournald show'd up but that is expected
[01:26:45] venger: mzb_d800, you mean some type of insert notification or something?
[01:26:56] mzb_d800: I also noticed that entries for the dvd in /etc/fstab can make it confusing (from mythtv's perspective)
[01:27:21] mzb_d800: not sure what it's called... but found it to be a pita
[01:27:39] mzb_d800: I think mine =1
[01:28:29] mzb_d800: DVDOnInsertDVD=1
[01:28:36] venger: yeah i've never had the cdrom in the fstab as i always manually mount it, this is a debian sid box so it doesn't have that hald-addon-storage either
[01:28:38] mzb_d800: DVDDeviceLocation=/dev/hdc
[01:28:42] J-e-f-f-A: venger: Motherboard is MSI K9NGM3-FIH  – uses Nvidia Geforce 7050  – nForce630a Chipset...
[01:29:02] venger: J-e-f-f-A, yea i was thinking must be be the 7000 series onboard
[01:29:59] mzb_d800: btw, I don't have the DVD monitored ... so maybe =1 is "off" ?
[01:30:16] venger: mzb_d800, could be. are you on .20 still or upgraded?
[01:30:17] mzb_d800: (sounds counter-intuitive but nm)
[01:30:24] mzb_d800: .21-fixes
[01:30:52] mzb_d800: (fairly recent rev .... prob. updated 1week ago)
[01:31:23] venger: this isn't as critical now that i feel its probably just the dvd drive/controller access triggering the light
[01:33:37] venger: i want to convert my installs over to all ubuntu from debian sid when i got to .21, i have setup new partitions and got the backend installed, just hard to get time to work on it. i wished they could of implemented protocol reverse compatibility but i suppose that was simply out of the question

[02:28:24] devicenull: I don't suppose it's possible to get mythtv to automatically discover connected usb drives and add media on them to my library?
[02:28:36] devicenull: I'd like to do the same with windows file shares as well
[02:29:05] iamlindoro: nope
[02:29:18] devicenull: hmm
[02:29:39] devicenull: is it terribly difficult to add media to it from a external program?
[02:30:18] iamlindoro: Depends on what you mean by "external program"
[02:30:55] iamlindoro: if you're asking if there's anything but mythfrontend that can poll for and add media, then no
[02:31:07] weevilofdoom: can always have the shares mount at boot, and have a 'shortcut' to them in your "videos" etc directory ... works for me
[02:31:08] devicenull: I meant if I were to write it
[02:31:15] iamlindoro: if you're asking if you can mount or copy media into your MythVideo, then yes
[02:31:36] devicenull: weevilofdoom: problem with that is mythvideo doesnt update unless you go into the video manager
[02:31:37] iamlindoro: You won't know until you write it :)

[02:32:19] iamlindoro: But no, it's probably not terribly difficult to copy the functionality of the video manager's polling to a command line utility
[02:32:56] devicenull: hmm I'll have to see if I can do that

[02:33:25] iamlindoro: Every two weeks or so someone says they're going to do it, then go off and disappear
[02:33:44] iamlindoro: Everyone's long on ideas and short on work
[02:33:47] devicenull: :D
[02:33:51] abarber: So just moved my Myth box upstairs, and I'm having 2 problems
[02:34:00] devicenull: that's what I'm going to do too, I leave for school soon so I dont have the desire right now
[02:34:06] abarber: 1) It's a widescreen TV and I have the black bars on the sides
[02:34:44] abarber: 2) channel up shows the channel i want to go to in a blue box, but does not go up until i press "ok"
[02:35:03] abarber: fixes?
[02:35:14] weevilofdoom: change aspect ratio for #1
[02:35:27] abarber: is that a backend setting?
[02:35:33] weevilofdoom: no
[02:35:38] weevilofdoom: don't think so?
[02:35:46] abarber: i'll look in a sec
[02:36:07] iamlindoro: backend settings control basic setup, not playback
[02:36:10] weevilofdoom: and as for #2, i'd prefer it that way
[02:36:18] iamlindoro: what does playback? The frontend. So there's your answer.
[02:36:25] stoth (stoth!n=stoth@ool-18bfe594.dyn.optonline.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[02:36:31] abarber: thanks guys
[02:36:36] iamlindoro: #2 is chantged in general TV settings
[02:36:45] iamlindoro: start reading the checkboxes
[02:37:05] iamlindoro: (right there on the first page)
[02:37:06] abarber: it's weird because i just unplugged it and moved it
[02:37:15] abarber: and it wasn't like that before
[02:37:27] iamlindoro: DB settings don't change themselves
[02:37:40] iamlindoro: And claiming otherwise just makes one seem clueless
[02:37:43] abarber: could it be a keybinding issue?
[02:37:46] iamlindoro: No
[02:37:59] abarber: okay
[02:38:07] abarber: i guess i am mistaken
[02:39:05] iamlindoro: The odds of the DB corrupting itself and, of all the possible ranges of corruption, going from a 0 to a 1 on a single setting when it could just as easily be a bunch of gibberish... well, you see the unliklihood of that :)
[02:41:53] iamlindoro: Also, you will want a setting activated in the "Playback OSD" screen, I'll leave you to see which :)

[02:48:51] mzb_d800: I'm having a play with the idea of a menu-driven OSD (for my music videos) and I'd like to find a way where I can set a number of keys for navigation using irexec
[02:49:32] mzb_d800: ideally, I'd like irexec to point to a script, and if I'm not playing music, those keys should be processed "normally"
[02:49:58] mzb_d800: is there a nice way of telling lirc(d) that a key has been pressed (when it hasn't) ?
[02:50:11] mzb_d800: like a dummy event?
[02:50:32] mzb_d800: ie: echo "MODIFIED_RIGHT" > /dev/lirc
[02:50:39] mzb_d800: (if you see what I mean)
[02:51:46] mzb_d800: *or* is it possible to replace lircrc while xine is playing, and then restore on exit (without mythtv b0rking?)
[02:52:42] abarber: iamlindoro: might that setting have been audio related?
[02:53:08] iamlindoro: no
[02:53:13] clever: mzb_d800: i think mythtv stores it in memory once started
[02:53:19] iamlindoro: It's the one whose description is EXACTLY WHAT YOU ASKED FOR
[02:53:22] clever: which is why you need to restart mythfrontend after updating the file
[02:53:24] abarber: because my audio isn't changing with the channel change
[02:53:35] iamlindoro: you are wayyyy off
[02:53:52] iamlindoro: lord, you can lead a horse to water, but apparently you have to hold his head under until he stops moving
[02:54:15] iamlindoro: go back the the playback OSD screen
[02:54:26] iamlindoro: now READ all descriptions associated with any checkboxes
[02:54:42] iamlindoro: Which should be quick as there's only two of them
[02:55:00] clever: those get cut off because the box is too small
[02:55:07] abarber: oh, i already changed that
[02:55:11] abarber: the browse mode
[02:55:21] iamlindoro: Then tadaaaa, that's all you need for the Chanup to go immediate
[02:55:31] abarber: right, thank you
[02:55:36] mzb_d800: for eg: I want to steal arrow keys (from myth) while xine is playing
[02:55:40] mzb_d800: dm ... I'll tinker
[02:55:52] abarber: i was scrolling through, but my audio was not changing
[02:56:03] abarber: stuck on dr. phil, regardless of channel

[02:56:32] clever: even my frame grabber can only tune a single aud&vid pair at a time
[02:56:45] clever: i dont see how the audio would become seperated from the video channel
[02:57:12] abarber: i am mystified
[02:57:20] iamlindoro: That's what you get for ordering TV from the Dr Phil Cable network
[02:57:22] abarber: i'll try again
[02:57:27] abarber: lol
[02:57:38] iamlindoro: You can watch any TV you want but you will OBEY DR PHIL
[02:58:34] mzb_d800: ah ... I have an idea
[02:58:43] ** mzb_d800 scurries off to play **
[02:59:03] abarber: the volume seems to be really low
[02:59:12] abarber: i put mixer volume all the way up to 100
[02:59:18] abarber: any other fixes?
[03:02:36] abarber: now it switched to family guy
[03:05:47] wagnerrp_: well that cant be good
[03:06:34] abarber: lol
[03:06:39] abarber: figured it out
[03:06:48] abarber: wrong outputs on receiver
[03:06:53] abarber: i am an idiot
[03:07:00] abarber: iamlindoro was right
[03:07:22] abarber: the only thing left is getting the volume louder
[03:07:50] abarber: i have receiver maxed, mixer volume maxed, TV volume maxed..
[03:08:42] abarber: and it's barely audible

[03:44:36] iamlindoro: heh
[03:45:09] wagnerrp_: hell, i think they were midway through the 2s before i had ever heard of gcc
[03:45:09] clever_: 4.1.3 seems plenty new:P
[03:45:55] wagnerrp_: well im actually in the process of compiling 4.1.2, and i bet ill still be in the process for the next 2 hours
[03:46:11] iamlindoro: clever_, You need to build a new system, FROM SCRATCH, and not compile or patch ANYTHING yourself, and then install trunk, hopefully from someone *else's* packages, *then* if it crashes I'll call it legit
[03:46:34] clever_: i'll need a new card atleast:P
[03:46:49] clever_: enless i use my slave recorder as a totaly seperate system
[03:47:03] clever_: but the frame grabber will suck 70% of the cpu and leave little for valgrind...
[03:47:47] iamlindoro: oh, new caveat, you can't use any hardware that cannot still be purchased new in a store
[03:47:51] wagnerrp_: well considering valgrind needs some 10–20x more power...
[03:48:06] iamlindoro: This may involve collecting your next year's allowance
[03:48:11] clever_: wagnerrp_: yeah i tried it on my existing setup, it maxed out for 400mhz
[03:48:29] wagnerrp_: iamlindoro: i dont even have much equipment that can still be purchased new in a store
[03:48:54] wagnerrp_: power supplies, cases, one of my tuner cards
[03:49:01] iamlindoro: wagnerrp_, yes, but *you* can keep myth running for longer than the rotation of an electron
[03:49:11] wagnerrp_: but i bet all of my machines have been obsoleted

[03:58:57] clever_: i expect my slave to crash if i make it do 2 recordings back2back, enless the diff has to do with the pvr150 or the fact its master
[03:59:12] clever_: so im going to schedule 2 to make it die
[03:59:37] wagnerrp_: ive got a slave with a pair of 150s and a 1250
[04:00:19] wagnerrp_: ive done at least 12 hours straight of recording when scifi does reruns of shows during the day
[04:00:54] clever_: lol
[04:01:07] clever_: i first noticed the problem when i turned a slave into the master
[04:01:10] clever_: and moved the card over
[04:01:17] clever_: it happened a few days after that
[04:01:23] wagnerrp_: although i dont think ive ever done back-to-back recordings
[04:01:36] wagnerrp_: the cards usually alternate because i have it overlap a few minutes

[04:02:25] clever_: but that only works until dad comes back
[04:02:33] clever_: then he will want his desktop back:P
[04:03:02] wagnerrp_: spend $100 and buy a lot of 150s on ebay, problem solved
[04:03:19] clever_: last i tryed, the tuner quality was horid
[04:03:34] clever_: im surprised at how good of a picture im getting out of my framegrabber without an STB
[04:04:31] clever_: there, ive forced it to record 2 shows in a row on the framegrabber
[04:04:42] clever_: by 1:30 i'll know if it also affects that system
[04:04:49] clever_: which i can more afford to crash several times a day
[04:05:30] clever_: and the load of 3 transcodes and a record is making the hdd system lag so i cant watch anything on it
[04:05:43] clever_: so i'll just spin the chair and use the laptop

[04:10:41] clever_: have you installed mythtv yet?
[04:10:49] olejl: yes
[04:10:51] clever_: you cant compile the plugins until mythtv itself is installed
[04:11:26] wagnerrp_: why is it linking both 0.22 libraries and qt3 libraries?
[04:11:26] clever_: thats the only thign i can think of

[04:18:12] wagnerrp_: you used the same prefix and all?
[04:19:16] olejl: I can answer yes to prefix. For all I will not guaranty
[04:20:34] olejl: Could it make a difference if I make distclean for mythtv?
[04:25:03] wagnerrp_: is there a libmythui-0.22 in /usr/lib?
[04:26:01] wagnerrp_: actually, you seem to be compiling in place
[04:26:14] wagnerrp_: rather than in some temporary directory
[04:26:39] wagnerrp_: and i guess it would be /usr/local/lib
[04:26:46] clever_: yeah that is a weird place to keep the source
[04:27:15] olejl: I forgot one minor detail. When I ./configure Mythtv I get the following warning: Warning! QtWebkit headers not found, MythBrowser will not work.
[04:27:34] clever_: hmmm, maybe tthats it!
[04:29:51] sphery: olejl: http://misc.thirdcontact.com/MythTV/mythtv-co . . . t_test.patch or hard-code the path to your Qt includes in check_header QtWebKit/QWebView line of configure, make distclean, rerun configure

[04:30:56] olejl: sphery: Thanks I will check it out
[04:32:14] clever_: nope, back2back on the slave framegrabber doesnt crash anything
[04:32:28] wagnerrp_: you prefixed with '/usr/local', as opposed to the more standard '/usr' on most distros
[04:32:33] wagnerrp_: but thats entirely your choice
[04:32:50] clever_: configure defaults to /usr/local
[04:32:59] wagnerrp_: really...
[04:33:09] olejl: I followed this guide http://mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Installing_MythTV_SVN_on_Fedora
[04:33:22] clever_: thats what it was doing to me before i started using --prefix
[04:33:34] wagnerrp_: well do you have any purpose to using trunk as opposed to 0.21-fixes?
[04:34:31] olejl: no not really other than I'm trying to learn a little
[04:34:59] wagnerrp_: trunk is usually perfectly fine for user consumption
[04:35:19] wagnerrp_: but due to the QT4 switch over, there are bound to be instabilities cropping up
[04:35:34] wagnerrp_: its just better to use fixes unless you have some specific need for trunk
[04:35:58] olejl: (and I decided to do this when mythplayer crashed when trying to play a H-264 video)
[04:36:06] olejl: I mean mplayer
[04:36:21] clever_: nothing stops you from upgrading only mplayer
[04:36:25] wagnerrp_: well mplayer is completely separate from mythtv
[04:36:35] clever_: ye

[06:06:19] clever_: using items like those last 2 links, you can connect the computer and wii to the projector and switch between them
[06:07:10] clever_: also the 'Xbox 360 Core' seems to have some type of VGA out
[06:07:56] obake-san: $40 for a cable, damn
[06:08:22] clever_: ebay might have cheaper ones
[06:08:24] clever_: just like it has cheap 'broken' lcd panels
[06:08:26] fryfrog: 360 has vga out if you buy a cable, but it *does* also have hdmi out on new models
[06:08:46] clever_: hdmi wont do much good on a vga projector
[06:08:47] obake-san: heh
[06:08:58] fryfrog: ah, yeah quite true
[06:09:08] fryfrog: but if you are buying LCD panels, why not get one with DVI and VGA?
[06:09:13] fryfrog: unless you already have it?
[06:09:25] obake-san: cheap monitors, and its already shipped
[06:09:35] fryfrog: DVI converts to HDMI with a $5 cable, I'm *pretty* sure they'll go the other way no-problemmo
[06:09:45] clever_: fryfrog: he is buying lcd's with busted backlights
[06:09:47] fryfrog: ah, a perfectly good reason to go with VGA! :)
[06:09:57] obake-san: i cant imagine its easy to find a small lcd with dvi
[06:10:10] fryfrog: clever_: i'm pretty sure a DVI lcd monitor can have a busted back light too ;)
[06:10:12] wagnerrp_: dual link DVI cannot run over HDMI
[06:10:25] wagnerrp_: similarly, HDMI 1.3 cannot run over DVI
[06:10:28] fryfrog: wagnerrp_: dual link dvi is for *HUGE* monitors
[06:10:51] fryfrog: if he is making an LCD into a projector, I doubt he is going for 24" LCD screens :p
[06:11:03] clever_: fryfrog: yeah but they would also be larger and more expensive
[06:11:09] fryfrog: obake-san: i'm sure they exist, but since you've already purchased it don't matter much.
[06:11:20] wagnerrp_: the 1.3 standard requires too much bandwidth, although i assume the devices are capable of dropping to a compatible level
[06:11:25] obake-san: even 15" is a little too big for the projector
[06:11:32] wagnerrp_: 24" screens still run on single-link
[06:11:32] fryfrog: ah
[06:11:42] obake-san: but its as close as im gonna get

[06:24:56] clever_: i just tell pxelinux to boot the 'old' profile and im in the backup!
[06:24:58] wagnerrp_: i can unpack it and boot as needed
[06:25:15] clever_: also i suspect using lvm snapshots would aid too
[06:25:31] clever_: i could easily fetch a config the upgrade trashed or roll the whole thing backwards
[06:25:47] wagnerrp_: well my local disks only store recordings
[06:25:55] wagnerrp_: and my remote server doesnt support lvm
[06:25:56] clever_: 1 of my systems has root on lvm, which also greatly helped to inflate root +1gig
[06:26:24] clever_: my dads computer was running with a 2gig linux partition bearly holding the os
[06:26:26] wagnerrp_: ive been considering reinstalling that machine with XFS so i could do such things
[06:26:39] clever_: i converted the 600mb swap into a oversized /boot and made it netboot

[06:27:00] clever_: it now holds grub the kernel and initrd(stolen from nfsroot/boot/)
[06:27:15] clever_: and it netboots like any other system(but doesnt need pxe working)
[06:27:16] wagnerrp_: not XFS... ZFS
[06:27:27] clever_: and works just fine as a recording slave
[06:27:44] wagnerrp_: ZFS includes snapshotting, virtual partitioning, and all those goodies
[06:27:44] clever_: only job left is to resize the ntfs to be ~3gig larger
[06:27:49] clever_: neat
[06:28:01] clever_: though i can do most of that with lvm and ext3
[06:28:37] clever_: resize2fs has been taking hours to inflate, so i just gave up and created a 2nd massive 'partition' and added it as a storage group
[06:29:25] clever_: i should move that 3month old backup out of my laptop now:P
[06:30:11] clever_: how big is it....
[06:30:45] clever_: 29gig
[06:31:30] clever_: how much is free...
[06:32:08] clever_: 9gig
[06:32:09] clever_: ....
[06:32:22] clever_: uhhh,houston, we have a problem
[06:33:45] clever_: found 24gig i can move out

[13:09:28] ajh: is there a way to suspend recording for a bit if you know your source is blank but still want to play things off the backend?
[13:09:41] directhex: yes
[13:09:49] directhex: have a blank source. nothing will be scheduled.
[13:10:05] ajh: without deleting the existing ones?
[13:10:39] ajh: I'm looking for a single-click level of convenience, otherwise it's easier to just delete the blank shows.
[13:10:46] directhex: if the existing one has no data (e.g. you use EIT) then nothing will be scheduled
[13:11:09] directhex: if you delete the source entirely, then it can lead to missing show data
[13:11:53] ajh: right, so no real way to do what I wanted.
[13:12:06] stuarta: you can just use per show overrides
[13:12:37] stuarta: just go into upcoming recordings and for each one that would record add a dont record override
[13:13:10] ajh: That also wouldn't do it, if I knew what timeframe would be missing it might.
[13:13:10] stuarta: there's no magic on/off switch for a source
[13:13:29] stuarta: option2. have the source on a slave backend
[13:13:42] stuarta: which when not connected it'll be scheduled around
[13:13:58] ajh: yeah, not worth the expense.

[13:55:16] mzb_d800: rather than having seperate interfaces for all the functions

[13:55:57] mzb_d800: then (in theory) *any* media file can be tagged so that it's visible in it's respective menu
[13:55:57] justinh: well, with mythui coming along nicely it's going to be possible
[13:56:24] mzb_d800: ie: recordings would automatically be tagged with "recording" ... and so on

[13:56:44] mzb_d800: yeah, or album art, etc
[13:57:02] mzb_d800: the idea and how to implement it is the start, I guess :)
[13:57:18] mzb_d800: but it seems to me that most of the basic tools are there
[13:57:48] justinh: I can see why recordings & videos are separate at the momemnt
[13:57:54] mzb_d800: sure
[13:58:13] justinh: I mean – there's no point trying to look up the recording options of a video ;)
[13:58:55] justinh: and the way recordings are deeply entrenched in the program table as opposed to just having dumb metadata in the recorded table
[13:58:59] mzb_d800: but a tagging system should be able to get around that .... and have the additional bonus that all the interfaces should be similar
[13:59:18] justinh: with the benefit of hindsight, lots is possible ;)
[13:59:30] mzb_d800: yeah
[14:00:30] justinh: I had a rather random idea at lunchtime actually

[14:02:36] ** mzb_d800 can only manage "simulated" organised ideas **
[14:03:02] justinh: anyway, thought it'd be quite nice to have a 'general info displayer' plugin where $whateverprogram could be run (in whatever language) which returns data in a predefined format (say XML).. then parse said file & show the results onscreen. rinse, repeat as necessary.
[14:03:06] mzb_d800: (that's what they might look like at the end;))
[14:03:42] justinh: or is that basically just an rss reader?

[14:07:09] justinh: can't think of any real use for it yet though
[14:07:20] AndyCap: justinh: well, I'm sure some can. :)
[14:07:54] justinh: could be even more simple than python bindings some were rabbiting on about I think
[14:18:42] justinh: would be like a really simple plugin API. I think a lot of things would suit that approach. hell if something is outputting xml, it needn't be restricted to text & still images

[17:35:39] sphery: kormoc: Just curious if you had any special plans for the MythVideo section of MythWeb regarding the Directory Structure section. Will it always be shown (it takes up a /lot/ of space) or could it be shown only if VideoBrowserNoDB is enabled? Will it be possible to "collapse" directories (like in file managers) or remove those that don't contain videos in the currently selected category/genre/...?
[17:36:49] kormoc: Hrm
[17:37:02] sphery: kormoc: BTW, I'm not asking you to do these things, just wondering if doing them would be a waste of time... :)
[17:37:37] kormoc: Heh, I was planning to make it be able to hide (meaing move over to a super thin box on the left side with a small plus to expand it
[17:37:49] sphery: that would work for me :)
[17:38:34] sphery: Or even just moving it to the right side (preferrably left-justified at 100%) so it's only visible if I scroll right :)
[17:39:16] kormoc: As for the dir box being more dynamic, that's not overly hard actually, and can be done fairly easily
[17:39:50] sphery: I'm still trying to figure out the "easy peasy" add the title of the just-deleted recording rule to the popup :)
[17:40:21] kormoc: Heh
[17:40:26] kormoc: that's a good idea actually
[17:40:37] kormoc: At times I do wonder what rule recorded THAT show :P
[17:41:13] kormoc: VideoBrowserNoDB would indicate that mythvideo's web interface should be disabled actually, no?

[17:41:47] sphery: I got a "recording rule deleted" popup immediately upon logging in to MythWeb and had no idea what happened until you told me that it would still give you the notification from your last session if you didn't wait (but then I was curious which rule got deleted).
[17:41:59] kormoc: ahh, gotcha
[17:42:35] kormoc: Yeah, the error notification work is in planning stage (which means I'm letting it stew in my brain)
[17:43:03] sphery: Yeah, VideoBrowserNoDB isn't really a good match, but seemed closest to what I'm looking to achieve (i.e. ignore filesystem structure because I just want to view my already-configured-in-the-DB collection)
[17:43:05] kormoc: cause I really want to get it less intrusive (meaning no alerts) and actually show the errors/warnings in the correct tabs when you have meny open
[17:43:16] sphery: that would be cool.

[17:44:25] sphery: still don't think trunk's ready for production, though.
[17:44:29] kormoc: Heh
[17:45:01] kormoc: sphery, Shh, here's a secret, likely mythweb's trunk will work with 0.21-fixes without any changes other then disabling the schema check (which is a apache env var)

[17:47:15] sphery: Basically, I put each video in a different dir (so I have a /ton/ of dirs) and name files like, "Serenity-[DVD-2005]" or whatever--of course, though, not that because Serenity would have been an encrypted DVD, which I couldn't use on a Linux box, but you get the idea.
[17:47:36] kormoc: Yeah, I understand
[17:47:41] kormoc: That would kinda suck
[17:48:09] sphery: Unfortunately, I don't really have a good solution to offer, but was wonder where you planned to go with the interface.

[17:56:11] kormoc: sphery, one thought, I could have a 'slice x dirs off of path' option, so you could slice the last dir off the path and they would virtually show up in the parent dir?
[17:58:59] sphery: Slicing off the right?
[17:59:29] kormoc: Aye, so your /videos/genre/title would convert to /videos/genre and group in that menu that way
[17:59:41] sphery: That would make it more pretty.
[17:59:59] sphery: don't waste a lot of time on it, though.

[18:00:53] kormoc: Meh, it's not that hard actually, just a setting and a array chop

[18:14:00] kormoc: it's basically a wrapper for mysql_escape
[18:14:16] kormoc: mainly just escaping quotes " ' and the like
[18:14:50] sphery: don't know if this is my reconstruction or what's actually happening: ERROR 1139 (42000): Got error 'invalid character range' from regexp
[18:15:16] kormoc: Well, that'd cause the issue for sure

[18:18:00] sphery: though--again--it may be my interpretation/reconstruction of it.
[18:18:26] sphery: How do I enable MySQL's query logging? Is that the bin-log thing?

[20:11:11] Maliuta: mkrufky: which was one of the 3
[20:11:17] mkrufky: maybe a power issue
[20:11:39] Maliuta: power control in the kernel?
[20:11:59] mkrufky: in the usb bus
[20:12:14] mkrufky: im just guessing, dont take this as official answer
[20:12:27] Maliuta: mkrufky: it's a gl861 stick, look like you had something to do with writing the driver for :)
[20:12:51] mkrufky: i didnt write it, but i had a role in review and cleanup
[20:12:58] Maliuta: mkrufky: power issues on the usb bus of 3 separate machines? sounds unlikely
[20:13:12] mkrufky: i know, i was joking :-P

[22:46:11] sphery: if anyone happens to have contacts or know something, I'm sure he'd love help.
[22:46:19] jblack: hold on....
[22:46:43] jblack: Terms and conditions can only apply if you agree, explicitely or implicitely, to the terms.
[22:47:10] sphery: regardless, we're not going to have any scripts that violate posted T&C's
[22:47:13] jblack: if you distribute a script that violates t&S, the enduser may get in trouble, but the project itself should be ok
[22:47:47] sphery: if you don't distriubte any scripts that violate T&C's, the project /will/ be OK.
[22:48:17] jblack: Hmm. if you follow that logic, if broadcast TV started before each show "Our T&C state that you may not record this show", then Myth would stop recording broadcast tv?

[22:50:14] cesman: abarber: read the topic of the channel and click the link...
[22:50:23] jblack: Nearly every show claims copyright during some portion of it, and recording is an act of copying...
[22:50:25] sphery: Myth doesn't record the bowl who's name I don't have a license to use
[22:50:30] sphery: Myth users may choose to.
[22:50:53] jblack: So, why does the logic apply to one aspect, but not another?
[22:51:03] sphery: However, Myth has other, not-explicitly-forbidden, uses. imdb.pl would not have any other uses if we're not allowed to pull data from IMBd
[22:51:06] sphery: IMDb
[22:51:31] jblack: So, the situation isn't an identical parallel?
[22:51:33] sphery: anyway, post a hate message to the -users list when it gets removed.
[22:51:42] AndyCap: pull data from iafd? :P
[22:51:46] sphery: That's much more constructive than actually trying to get approval.

[23:01:19] abarber: thanks
[23:02:31] sphery: jblack: AIUI, DVR's are ubiquitous (thanks to TiVo and cable-/satellite-company DVR's), therefore, they are pretty firmly entrenched in the fair-use area of copyright. The idea of scripts going out and "stealing" data from websites, without providing the benefit of page views for advertising on the site to the site owners, is /not/ covered under fair use.
[23:03:35] ** jblack thinks about that **
[23:04:20] jblack: Yeah, that makes sense.
[23:04:43] justinh: how would they even know that a script isn't just grabbing an ad & piping it to /dev/null though? ;)
[23:05:05] sphery: or that the user is running something like Ad Block
[23:05:23] justinh: obviously multiple hits in a given time period would be a giveaway though
[23:05:33] sphery: Regardless, it's their data, they have copyright on it (or, at least the compilation of that data).
[23:05:38] jblack: I think adblock doesn't download ads at all, so you can tell who does by who's grabbing pages, and not the ads on the page.
[23:05:55] andreax1 (andreax1!n=andreaz@p57B9797E.dip.t-dialin.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[23:06:37] jblack: I suppose there's another difference. Added burden. recording a TV show doesn't cost the publisher another cent, while downloading a page has a (infitesimal) cost.
[23:06:53] sphery: but either way, it kind of proves the fact that people who prohibit page-scraping because it harms the advertiser value of the site are idiots.
[23:07:04] EvilGuru (EvilGuru!n=freddie@witherden.org) has quit ()
[23:07:12] sphery: Still, we live in a world of idiots--with lots of lawyers.
[23:07:31] clever (clever!n=clever@fctnnbsc16w-156034212232.nb.aliant.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[23:07:36] jblack: So, the right thing to do is to make a new service.
[23:07:50] equim: dangit.. optimize_mythdb and backend restart didn't fix my keyboard problem
[23:07:53] jblack: and who wants to go through that effort.
[23:08:08] sphery: jblack: that's a good point. Eventually, maybe the courts will clarify the whole idea. But--I truly hope--they don't do so with any of the Myth devs in the hot seat.
[23:08:14] justinh: jblack: isn't that how cddb started?
[23:08:36] justinh: user-generated content? I'd settle for that
[23:08:43] jblack: I think you're right. I think there is some precident for collusion as comes to torrent sites. They don't traffic in copyrighted software, but by providing the assist.
[23:08:54] sphery: justinh: and then freedb was created because of the draconian restrictions cddb placed on the user-generated content they stole...
[23:09:10] jblack: justinh: cddb has a kind of screwy history. started public, went proprietary, then freedb
[23:09:21] justinh: still a viable example though
[23:09:24] sphery: freedb is unrelated, isn't it?
[23:09:34] famicom (famicom!i=famicom@c51447fbf.cable.wanadoo.nl) has quit ("Leaving")
[23:09:38] jblack: freedb is a fork, iirc.
[23:09:42] sphery: yeah
[23:09:54] justinh: any foo can paraphrase a plot synopsis
[23:09:57] jblack: The last publicly free cddb stuff, then from there..
[23:09:58] sphery: basically took back what cddb stole from the community
[23:10:12] Dibblah (Dibblah!n=Dibblah@80-192-14-169.cable.ubr02.dund.blueyonder.co.uk) has quit (Read error: 113 (No route to host))
[23:10:33] sphery: there is actually a site that's attempting to recreate imdb's data but making everything less proprietary... I can't remember its name.
[23:10:44] ** sphery digs through his IRC logs. **
[23:10:47] jblack: It might not hurt to contact the freedb guys, and say "Since you're kicking cddb in the balls anyways.... "
[23:11:42] justinh: thetvdb.com ?
[23:12:43] justinh: so far just for telly as far as I can tell
[23:13:19] sphery: justinh: now that I think about it, it may be a site that's upset with tv.com's stealing user-contributed content\
[23:14:00] justinh: heh apparently imdb plot synopsis are user-generated a lot of the time
[23:14:01] justinh: jees
[23:14:11] sphery: yeah
[23:14:12] justinh: bloody evil amazon
[23:14:57] grantm (grantm!n=grant@68.142.138.4) has quit (Read error: 110 (Connection timed out))
[23:15:08] sphery: I purposefully do /not/ correct anything at tv.com (and I've found a /lot/ of wrong stuff). I don't get into movies as much, so I haven't found anything needing correcting at imdb, but if I did, I'd have to think about whether to do corrections...

[23:16:49] iamlindoro__: Who wants to bet that in this screenie from the users list, the text between "Title" and "p" is ".x264.Leet-vids.1080"?
[23:16:51] iamlindoro__: http://img512.imageshack.us/img512/8747/mythvideoii3.jpg
[23:17:16] Dagmar: Why would it even suprise you?
[23:17:28] iamlindoro__: Of course not :)
[23:17:48] famicom (famicom!i=famicom@c51447fbf.cable.wanadoo.nl) has joined #mythtv-users
[23:18:25] justinh: what's he even doing with 1080 vids on a 4:3 screen
[23:18:50] sphery: MOAR PIKSELZ
[23:19:01] sphery: (think that was an homage to iamlindoro__ )
[23:19:02] Dagmar: Because he's a warez kiddie who doesn't have a damn clue that <1Gb file =! 1080
[23:19:13] Dagmar: ...in any useful way
[23:19:25] iamlindoro__: sphery: Can't claim to own it, but I do use it a fair bit :)
[23:19:36] sphery: 1080i means 1280x1080, just ask DirecTV
[23:19:50] iamlindoro__: look at the title bar, though, it *is* a high res screen
[23:20:07] directhex: 1600*1200
[23:20:07] iamlindoro__: 1900x1200 by the looks of it
[23:20:13] iamlindoro__: er, right
[23:20:18] Dagmar: It r also a mac user by the look of it
[23:20:20] iamlindoro__: 4:3 :)
[23:20:23] sphery: Oh, that's the "start bar" thingy on a full-screen cap, rather than a window cap
[23:20:35] iamlindoro__: I think that's linux
[23:20:36] directhex: i'm on a 4:3 1600x1200 screen!
[23:21:11] sphery: I thought apple's always had the 3840x2560 screens :)
[23:21:20] directhex: it's not apple.
[23:21:20] iamlindoro__: I'm pretty sure it's not an apple anyway
[23:21:31] directhex: it's a million miles from being an apple
[23:21:42] iamlindoro__: Well, I mean, it might be apple hardware for all I know, but it ain't OS X
[23:21:54] sphery: what theme is that?
[23:22:04] sphery: the highlight is actually on top of the folders
[23:22:30] iamlindoro__: sphery: Come on, use the right term for the warez kiddies, it's a "skin."  ;)
[23:22:40] sphery: Oh, yeah. Forgot.
[23:22:51] justinh: would an onscreen logo placate imdb.com, I wonder?
[23:23:28] justinh: I know it's one of the 'features' of the amazon grabbing API
[23:24:02] sphery: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imdb#Copyright_issues
[23:24:18] sphery: All your plots are belong to us.
[23:25:53] equim: I can't even ctrl+alt+del or turn on numlock etc when in mythfrontend :/
[23:26:49] kormoc: sounds like a corrupt X/kbd issue
[23:28:16] equim: hmm yeah
[23:28:40] equim: I dunno what's special about mythfrontend that's causing it tho
[23:30:36] equim: will try in ubuntu-mythtv since it's prolly not so much a mythtv problem
[23:32:31] sphery: justinh: Wow. Reading the T&C's of IMDb leaves no question about imdb.pl. http://www.imdb.com/help/show_article?conditions
[23:33:01] justinh: yeah I know but I can't help but wonder what might make them give us an unequivocal YES
[23:33:18] sphery: Sad thing is that Anduin has been trying to contact them, and TTBOMK, they're just not even responding.
[23:33:31] justinh: should we crank it up some more? ;)
[23:33:38] justinh: where do they live? :D
[23:34:18] iamlindoro__: next to xris
[23:34:27] iamlindoro__: Tell 'im to go knock

[23:34:57] Tatsh: anyone here have a motorola DCH3416 working?
[23:35:11] justinh: get everybody on the lists to send a paper letter / fax
[23:35:33] iamlindoro__: Tatsh: why not ask your actual question?
[23:35:55] iamlindoro__: As, even if people here have that cable box working, and they do, STBs will behave differently in every single cable market
[23:36:19] sphery: Have Schedules Direct license the content from them ("we supply the majority of our partners with XML data files"-- http://www.imdb.com/licensing/ ), and set up a web service for Myth users?
[23:36:20] iamlindoro__: as the STB policies are set by the headend and which ports are active, etc. have nothing to do with the box and everything to do with the group policy set at the headend
[23:36:34] Tatsh: okay, this is Comcast, and I have the box connected via firewire, NetworkManager sees it and I have the GUID
[23:36:49] Tatsh: i run mythtv-setup and I think i have the settings correct however no GUID and i cannot edit it
[23:36:58] andreax (andreax!n=andreaz@p57B9797E.dip.t-dialin.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[23:37:01] iamlindoro__: Tatsh: Comcast means nothing either, you can be on one block and get something via firewire, and nothing on the next
[23:37:06] iamlindoro__: like I said, it's per headend
[23:37:15] andreax: hell... they should name it Windows Restart....
[23:37:17] sphery: Comcast? I hope this IRC conversation doesn't put you over your 250GB/mo allowed bandwidth.
[23:37:19] Tatsh: well is there any way to manually edit the GUID?
[23:37:23] iamlindoro__: your particular problem, however, is that your user doesn't have access to /dev/raw1394
[23:37:30] Tatsh: yes
[23:37:30] justinh: sphery: heh you could license that per # of queries. if nobody minds the admin load ;)
[23:37:38] iamlindoro__: so fix the permissions on it
[23:38:46] Tatsh: what permissions should it have?
[23:38:54] sphery: I have to wonder if anyone on Earth has ever signed up for IMDb Pro...
[23:38:55] wagnerrp_: sphery: apple has NEVER had a 3840x2560 screen
[23:38:56] iamlindoro__: read and write for the user at hand
[23:39:08] iamlindoro__: at least
[23:39:27] Tatsh: okay
[23:41:09] Tatsh: as root i did chmod +rw /dev/raw1394 and even if i run mythtv-setup as root the GUID is not found
[23:41:13] Tatsh: plugreport shows nothing
[23:41:33] sphery: wagnerrp_: yeah, just an over-exaggeration of their Apple Cinema Display capabilities--specifically the 2560x1600 res 30-inch.
[23:42:19] wagnerrp_: their 30" cinema displays are crap (has a handful of them)
[23:42:40] wagnerrp_: (correction: has a handful of them at work)
[23:42:42] directhex: dell 3008 on the other hand
[23:43:04] sphery: interesting.
[23:43:19] sphery: I'd never spend that much on a monitor, anyway, so I wouldn't know.  :)
[23:43:27] directhex: dell know how to make a monitor when they want to
[23:45:05] jblack: LOL. Granny zombie started biting one of the guys... "She's gumming me to death!"
[23:46:15] Tatsh: iamlindoro how do i give myself access to /dev/raw1394 (what command to issue)?

[23:57:02] clever: more root?
[23:59:21] Tatsh: well, the other issue is that with root, plugdev reports nothing even though the box is connected and ^F12 shows when it got detected
