[01:30:19] | Staticwave_Ace: | hello all, I was wondering if there's support in mythtv for shifting *all* recording schedules by a given number of minutes |
[01:30:36] | Staticwave_Ace: | it seems my cable provider is 2 minutes or so early compared to ntp time |
[01:32:00] | oobe: | you can make a default recording value but it will not update existing schedules |
[01:33:01] | Staticwave_Ace: | hrm |
[01:33:09] | Staticwave_Ace: | I was more hoping for a global offset |
[01:33:27] | Staticwave_Ace: | if I move all my recordings, I'll have to move the ending time too |
[01:33:30] | Staticwave_Ace: | where's this setting? |

[01:34:09] | oobe: | dashcloud, i put together a very nice mythfrontend recently using second hand parts on ebay it displays at 1080i for very cheap |
[01:34:27] | oobe: | only trade off was time spent working on it |
[01:34:41] | oobe: | extra time that is |
[01:35:04] | Staticwave_Ace: | oobe: happen to know where that setting is off hand? |
[01:36:13] | dashcloud: | all I need currently is something that's relatively quiet and hooks up to the TV easily- 1080i is just a bonus |
[01:38:45] | oobe: | well i can tell you i picked up a very cheap sff pc for 70$ aud on ebay its very quiet and streams ok over 54g hdtv wont stream ok though |
[01:39:13] | oobe: | i had to slap in a fx5200 for 30 bucks aswell |
[01:39:39] | oobe: | Staticwave_Ace, its in setup / utitlities on your frontend |
[01:39:53] | oobe: | i dont remember off hand |

[01:40:18] | oobe: | my preference is 5 mins early default and 15 mins late |
[01:40:25] | sphery: | Staticwave_Ace: you need to specify -2 minutes start early and -2 minutes start late on all recording rules |
[01:40:27] | oobe: | then i change this accordingly |
[01:40:55] | oobe: | also i transcode out using cut points so it doesnt bother me recording extra garbage |
[01:44:01] | sphery: | Staticwave_Ace: as oobe said, there's a setting, "Default 'Start Early' minutes for new recording rules" and "Default 'End Late' minutes for new recording rules" in mythfrontend settings on the page "Scheduler Options" in General Recording Priorities that will fix those rules you create in the future |
[01:44:30] | sphery: | Hmmm. MythBOINC... And I thought I was the only one running BOINC on my Myth boxes. |
[01:46:19] | sphery: | Staticwave_Ace: oops... That's 2 minutes start early and -2 minutes end late. Seems I should be having dinner and not trying to think right now... |
[01:46:38] | Staticwave_Ace: | hehe |
[01:47:03] | Staticwave_Ace: | oobe: any link on the cutting out stuff when transcoding? |
[01:48:21] | iamlindoro: | search "removing commercials" in the myth wiki |
[01:49:39] | Staticwave_Ace: | thanks |
[01:49:47] | oobe: | press m your menu button on the remote the select edit recording |
[01:49:48] | ** Staticwave_Ace manually edits all the recording schedulse ** | |
[01:50:02] | Staticwave_Ace: | oobe: ah, you're doing it manually |
[01:50:18] | oobe: | yeah but i use the commflags aswell |
[01:50:32] | oobe: | i skip to the next ad break |
[01:50:36] | oobe: | then start editing |
[01:50:47] | oobe: | then repeat |
[01:51:03] | oobe: | commflag isnt perfect enough to do it any other way |
[01:51:14] | Staticwave_Ace: | yeah, that's true |
[01:51:31] | oobe: | its handy when it does work though |
[01:51:41] | Staticwave_Ace: | its pretty good here |
[01:51:44] | dashcloud: | I just ignore the commflags, and edit everything in avidemux- clearly not the best option, but it works |
[01:51:58] | oobe: | there are certain shows where i can trust it and use commflag to import the cut points |
[01:52:04] | oobe: | but usually i do it by hand |
[01:52:07] | sphery: | Staticwave_Ace: e to edit, z to import flag list, then manual adjustments as required |
[01:52:18] | GreyFoxx: | iamlind: I used mkmerge. Well actually I used the mmg gui for it |
[01:52:29] | sphery: | or, for the superbowl, e to edit, z to import flag list, i to invert cut list (to keep only commercials) :) |
[01:52:37] | GreyFoxx: | just opened the file, set a file to save to, make sure the Cue setting is "default" and tell it to start |
[01:52:44] | GreyFoxx: | the saved file is seekable |
[01:52:45] | Staticwave_Ace: | sphery: now *that* sounds about right |
[01:56:40] | iamlindoro: | GreyFoxx, ah, so no command line option that you know of? |
[01:57:12] | GreyFoxx: | mmg is just a gui wrapper to mkmerge |
[01:57:18] | GreyFoxx: | err mkvmerge |
[01:57:31] | GreyFoxx: | I just don't know offhand what it creates. lemme check |

[03:25:10] | ozatomic: | Hey i was just wondering if there was anyway to record directly to wmv or to have it convert it after it has finished. |
[03:26:42] | iamlindoro: | ozatomic, as WMV is just a container and not a codec, you could set a user job up, something to the extent of "ffmpeg -i infile.mpg -acodec copy -vcodec copy outfile.wmv" |
[03:27:07] | iamlindoro: | although not knowing what ffmpeg requires in terms of container options for wmv, that's just a general idea of what you'd do |
[03:27:28] | ozatomic: | ok awsome thanks |
[03:27:44] | ozatomic: | so i jsut have to play with ffmpeg seperatly until i get the settigns i requier |
[03:27:50] | iamlindoro: | just tested, that command line works fine |
[03:28:37] | iamlindoro: | will copy the streams into wmv container |
[03:28:43] | iamlindoro: | Set up as a user job like so: |
[03:29:14] | iamlindoro: | ffmpeg -i %DIR%/%FILE% -acodec copy -vcodec copy %DIR%/%FILE%.wmv |
[03:29:17] | ozatomic: | am i able to give it specific options eg bitrate etc |
[03:29:29] | iamlindoro: | not unless you do a transcode, this is a stream copy |
[03:29:57] | iamlindoro: | puts it in wmv format-- if you want to transcode (giving up quality when you do) then you need to seek help from ffmpeg people about that |
[03:30:25] | ozatomic: | will that still go in the user job section ? |
[03:30:30] | iamlindoro: | yes |
[03:30:35] | ozatomic: | ok thanks |
[03:30:46] | ozatomic: | one more thing |
[03:30:57] | ozatomic: | there wouldn't be anyway to transcode to this straight away |
[03:31:03] | ozatomic: | instead of doing ti afterwards? |
[03:31:11] | iamlindoro: | You can set a user job to run after every recording if you want |
[03:31:36] | iamlindoro: | just edit the recording rule and tick the box for your job |
[03:32:08] | ozatomic: | kk thanks i'll give ti a try and keep looking around aswell |
[03:32:09] | iamlindoro: | unless you mean record directly to wmv, and no. and Yuck. |
[03:32:30] | iamlindoro: | If we *were* going to use other containers, we sure and shit wouldn't use wmv |
[03:32:35] | iamlindoro: | er sure as shit |
[03:32:48] | ozatomic: | hehe |
[03:32:51] | clev: | mkv would be the next one id use |
[03:32:54] | ozatomic: | yeah i know i don't like wmv |
[03:33:02] | iamlindoro: | Then don't use it |
[03:33:08] | ozatomic: | but its what my it admins want for a specific program |
[03:33:15] | iamlindoro: | vom |

[03:57:31] | dustybin: | .21 fixes, i did a svn update about 4 days ago |
[03:57:45] | dustybin: | actually i didnt update mythweb!! |

[03:59:11] | xris: | anyway.. it might be an issue with the javascript, or the browser. it's unfortunately not a serious enough issue that kormoc or I would try to track it down, unless more people start complaining about it. |
[03:59:19] | xris: | have you done the usual clearing of cache/cookies/etc? |

[04:42:47] | sphery: | dustybin: "blue information boxes stuck into 1 postition"? Perhaps http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/changeset/17555/tr . . . gins/mythweb (only in trunk, but easy enough to put in -fixes) |
[04:44:04] | iamlindoro: | Because you can't resize, transcode, etc. a stream copy. |
[04:44:19] | iamlindoro: | if you want to resize, change bitrates, codecs, etc., then you need to do a real transcode |
[04:44:46] | iamlindoro: | and you should seek help in the channel for your transcode software (in this case, ffmpeg) for that. But I would read the docs for it first. |

[05:35:18] | HaSH: | so it would be stb — Y/Pb/Pr --> hd pvr --???--> computer |
[05:35:21] | iamlindoro: | They are not mucho dinero |
[05:35:23] | iamlindoro: | USB |
[05:35:53] | progress0r: | thats a sore subject for me at the moment. I spent US$40 on a special component to dvi adapter cable so that one of my monitors i dont use anymore could do 1080p as advertised. I was hooking it up directly to my sa 3250 hd box – nothing |
[05:36:08] | HaSH: | usb hmm. and the dh pvr has a ir blaster? |
[05:36:29] | iamlindoro: | yes, it has one, but it's not a DVR unto itself, it's just a USB capture card/box. |
[05:36:34] | progress0r: | iamlindoro: how much are they? i havent seen a video card with component connx for a computer but havent looked |
[05:36:42] | iamlindoro: | All it does is compress the signal and send it on via USB. |
[05:37:01] | iamlindoro: | progress0r, This has nothing to do with video cards. The HD-PVR is $220. |
[05:37:25] | HaSH: | ah ok. and with that hd pvr....it would get EVERY channel that the cablebox can? |
[05:37:30] | iamlindoro: | Yes. |
[05:37:45] | HaSH: | nice |
[05:38:01] | progress0r: | iamlindoro: Hash asked if there were cards with component connx – thats what i was referring to |
[05:38:02] | HaSH: | does going through usb lower quality at all? |
[05:38:20] | iamlindoro: | progress0r, He was not asking about video cards. |
[05:38:27] | HaSH: | progress0r, yea ideally id like a card.....so i could plug it in then hook the cable box up via the card |
[05:38:48] | HaSH: | well i want a way to hook the cable box via Y/Pb/Pr to my puter |
[05:38:57] | progress0r: | Hash im in the same situation |
[05:38:59] | HaSH: | cuz wouldnt that be the highest quality way to go? |
[05:39:11] | iamlindoro: | HaSH, As with all digital video, when it in compressed into a usable stream, there is some quality loss. It is nothing major, however. |

[05:42:40] | progress0r: | which has countless gripes on the net |
[05:42:53] | iamlindoro: | KWorld is one of the *better* digital tuner choices for Myth. |

[05:44:46] | iamlindoro: | Just because you couldn't get a single device from a manufacturer working is a *bad* reason to run your mouth off in front of people who know what they're talking about. As people, especially here, will call you on it every time. |

[06:06:21] | Dagmar: | Oh man that's an easy one |
[06:06:33] | Dagmar: | For one thing, you'll need two different size adapters. |
[06:06:48] | tjcarter: | Most of the options I'm looking at cost more than my case ;) |
[06:06:50] | Dagmar: | Actually, just one (nevermind, thought you were talking about notebooks for aminute there) |
[06:06:58] | Dagmar: | Jesus where are you looking at? |
[06:07:05] | Dagmar: | They should be like $25 or less |
[06:07:18] | Dagmar: | You can get ones with a keylock and made to hotswap for $25–35 |
[06:07:21] | tjcarter: | I'm looking at 4-in-3 type adapters |
[06:07:28] | Dagmar: | 4-in-3? |
[06:07:47] | tjcarter: | yeah, stuff reasonably similar to http://www.tekram.com/product2/product_detail.asp?pid=60 |

[06:08:24] | tjcarter: | I have the new CM Stacke^WCenturion case with 9 5.25 bays =D |
[06:08:34] | Dagmar: | OKay, those are multi-bay enclosures which aren't going to work in any "common" ATX case |
[06:08:49] | tjcarter: | This isn't a common case =D |
[06:08:55] | Dagmar: | Click that URL I posted and just scroll down through it |
[06:09:06] | Dagmar: | You'll see _several_ of what you want and you should be able to re-aim the search from there. |
[06:09:44] | Dagmar: | The stuff I deal with just fits in "any old" 5.25 bay |
[06:10:02] | tjcarter: | I suppose this will solve the airflow problem: http://www.peteredge.orconhosting.net.nz/casefan.html |
[06:10:05] | Dagmar: | Stuff like http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817122109 is just pretty common |
[06:10:19] | Dagmar: | That dude needs help |
[06:11:17] | Dagmar: | There's literally dozens of models of drive bays like what you're looking for |
[06:11:27] | clev: | tjcarter: old stuff:P |
[06:12:20] | tjcarter: | Dagmar: I may go with that for the price, but I'd really prefer 2–3 of those with a big slow fan sucking air past several drives |
[06:12:41] | tjcarter: | There's an IcyDock thing that someone suggested wasn't very good, but I don't recall who said so or why |

[07:23:00] | kormoc: | nayfly, it's covered in the docs |
[07:23:37] | wagnerrp: | in brief, open up mythtv-setup, first item, first page, change those IPs to network IPs |
[07:23:54] | wagnerrp: | open up mysql, grant access to mythconverg for your network, rather than just localhost |
[07:23:59] | nayfly: | and there won't be any issues with remote mysql stuff? |
[07:24:08] | nayfly: | i see |
[07:24:19] | wagnerrp: | possible edit your mysql config to bind to your network interface, instead of just localhost |
[07:24:38] | nayfly: | I hate mysql :( |
[07:24:40] | wagnerrp: | i dont know if the default mythbuntu install of mysql has network access |

[08:16:38] | mchou: | 70 F is quite warm indoors |

[08:28:58] | tjcarter: | Thermal characteristics? Very big, lots of 120mm fan mountings. Looks "slightly shotgunned" |
[08:29:12] | tjcarter: | PSU in bottom |
[08:30:10] | tjcarter: | flaw: internal 4 to 3 adapter is lame and should be thrown away, rubber HD mounting grommets or not. |
[08:30:37] | tjcarter: | Using the Silverstone one instead |

[08:44:32] | laga_: | piksi: AFAIK, it's using the multiproto API which will never be merged into mainline |
[08:44:46] | laga_: | piksi: the new kid on the block is the S2 api. drivers are being developed for that |
[08:46:30] | piksi: | oh ok, good to know. i'm just annoyed that the only dvb-c card i could find that would fit pci-x slot was one that didn't even have drivers in 2.6.26 |

[09:18:57] | justinh: | I think only about 2 or 3 pci-x tuner cards are supported in linux. If that |
[09:22:08] | sid3windr: | pci-x or pcie? |

[09:22:26] | justinh: | I care not for this new-fangled stuff |
[09:22:55] | justinh: | doesn't matter what it's called – not many motherboards come with more than 3 slots anyway |
[09:23:52] | justinh: | come to think about it – isn't it taking an awful long time for plain old PCI to go away? |
[09:23:59] | justinh: | I wonder why... |
[09:25:48] | sid3windr: | because there are no useful cards on !pci ;/ |
[09:25:55] | sid3windr: | I only have 1 pci slot in my desktop |

[12:55:03] | toad_: | i'm fairly sure i've found a transcoder bug :( |
[12:55:20] | justinh: | well, mythfrontend in freenx is refusing to be screencapped |
[12:55:33] | justinh: | any screenshot I take in nx is coming out blank |
[12:56:05] | toad_: | shows recorded from BBC3, starting 5 minutes before the channel starts up so starting with the MHEG still frame, have audio if not transcoded, and lose all audio if transcoded |
[12:56:41] | justinh: | toad_: so don't transcode it then :) |
[12:56:46] | toad_: | :| |
[12:57:03] | justinh: | the problem will be transcode is looking for a valid video PID |
[12:57:10] | toad_: | is it possible to tell myth not to transcode stuff starting with the channel startup? |
[12:57:22] | toad_: | well presumably it finds a video PID since it has video |
[12:57:23] | justinh: | and there won't be a valid video PID if the channel isn't yet on air |
[12:57:44] | toad_: | it has video, but not audio |
[12:57:53] | justinh: | you'll be hard pressed to find anybody with sympathy for your plight |
[12:58:29] | toad_: | why? because all known devs have 5TB storage and don't bother to transcode? :| |
[12:58:57] | justinh: | something like that |
[12:59:00] | toad_: | is there any point in trying to get a small before and after sample? |
[12:59:16] | justinh: | there's no need for an 'after' sample |
[12:59:32] | toad_: | right, cos you can transcode it yourself... |
[13:00:01] | justinh: | have you tried putting the file through ffmpeg -i $inputfile -vcodec copy -acodec copy $outfile first? |
[13:00:01] | toad_: | so i should download the nuv, chop the first 100MB, and post it somewhere, then file a bug? |
[13:00:14] | toad_: | no, i will try that |
[13:00:17] | toad_: | from the nuv? |
[13:00:20] | justinh: | no |
[13:00:24] | justinh: | from the original file |
[13:00:42] | toad_: | ah yeah it's an mpeg right now isn't it? |
[13:00:44] | justinh: | by not keeping the original file you're screwing up your proof |

[13:02:33] | ** mzb_d800 thanks the Gods of the Ether ** | |
[13:03:09] | toad_: | and yes we delete stuff when we've watched it |
[13:03:37] | justinh: | so why not just save yourself a major pain in the nuts & put a decent size HDD in there? |
[13:04:00] | mzb_d800: | and/or set auto-expire by default? |
[13:04:24] | toad_: | we do auto-expire, but then it deletes stuff we don't want it to delete |
[13:04:48] | mzb_d800: | iow, you don't ;) |
[13:05:22] | mzb_d800: | and as justinh said, you need larger hard drive(s) to suit your needs (in that case) |
[13:05:34] | toad_: | at 2.7GB/hr, 1TB would be 370 hours... |
[13:05:48] | justinh: | if that's not enough... |
[13:05:50] | toad_: | i have 2TB but i prefer to mirror it since disks have repeatedly failed... |

[13:07:01] | justinh: | and we record a lot of telly |
[13:07:16] | toad_: | well, we have 600GB used of 700ish now, *with* transcoding |
[13:07:51] | justinh: | jesus |
[13:08:13] | justinh: | one thing I do is have stuff set to keep only X episodes of a show at a time |
[13:08:27] | justinh: | if we haven't watched it by the time a new episodes comes on, TOUGH |
[13:08:57] | justinh: | it's only telly FFS. be harsh :) |
[13:09:05] | mzb_d800: | I'm pretty slack, I've got ~1150 recordings on 1.7TB with about 300GB free, 150GB set to auto-expire... gradually working through it and transcoding. |
[13:09:50] | toad_: | hmmm |
[13:09:52] | mzb_d800: | justinh: yeah, but with my music video scripting (etc), we use ours for all sorts of things |
[13:10:05] | mzb_d800: | ~120GB of uncompressed music, iirc |
[13:10:10] | toad_: | back to the bug... |

[13:10:30] | toad_: | interestingly, mplayer doesn't give audio either |
[13:10:39] | toad_: | when recording the non-transcoded mpeg |
[13:10:55] | justinh: | hardly surprising |
[13:11:07] | justinh: | what about ffmpeg -i $thefilename ? |
[13:11:18] | justinh: | it should report the streams it finds |
[13:11:43] | ** justinh wonders wtf is on bbc3 when it first comes on air anyway ** | |
[13:11:47] | toad_: | hmmm |
[13:11:52] | toad_: | Doctor Who :) |
[13:12:07] | toad_: | well not recently, but that was the one we wanted which lost its sound |
[13:12:12] | toad_: | anyway, what am i looking for? |
[13:12:18] | toad_: | in the output |
[13:12:51] | toad_: | I think I could probably solve this by recording 4 minutes early instead of 5 minutes early... |
[13:13:01] | mzb_d800: | audio format? |
[13:13:10] | toad_: | Input #0, mpegts, from '1223229300': |
[13:13:10] | toad_: | Duration: 01:01:08.24, start: 78456.193222, bitrate: 5662 kb/s |
[13:13:18] | toad_: | is that just video? |
[13:14:12] | mzb_d800: | bitrate sounds a bit high for audio, don't you reckon? ;) |
[13:14:21] | toad_: | :) |
[13:14:28] | toad_: | the mpegts is *just* video? ok |
[13:14:56] | mzb_d800: | ts = transport stream |
[13:14:57] | toad_: | what does it want for the output filename? something.avi? |
[13:15:44] | justinh: | toad_: pastebin the output of that ffmpeg command |
[13:15:53] | toad_: | doing, 1sec |
[13:16:37] | toad_: | http://amphibian.dyndns.org/mythtemp.txt |
[13:17:11] | justinh: | well it's seeing the right streams by the look of it |
[13:17:19] | toad_: | hmmm |
[13:17:32] | justinh: | btw it wouldn't end up an avi file anyway |
[13:17:49] | justinh: | vcodec copy & acodec copy mean use the original stream format |
[13:17:58] | toad_: | yeah but if i didn't give a filename it grumbled |
[13:18:38] | justinh: | so run the command again,this time call the output file something.mpg & then try the output file in mplayer |
[13:19:29] | toad_: | in progress... |
[13:20:02] | justinh: | the bug is probably fixable but ther won't be a very high priority attached to it |
[13:20:15] | justinh: | and if it goes unreported, I can guarantee it won't get fixed :) |
[13:20:27] | toad_: | okay, well, i'd like to report it anyway ... and i'll reduce the minutes-prev to 3 |

[13:21:26] | toad_: | okay the avi is playable with sound |
[13:21:46] | toad_: | should i keep the file and manually start myth transcoding to verify that the transcoding bug is still present? |
[13:21:59] | toad_: | the recordings that lost audio were about a month ago, i may have updated myth since then |
[13:22:17] | justinh: | I give up |
[13:22:19] | toad_: | or can i do a transcode from the command line? just by specifying a different vcodec? |
[13:23:52] | toad_: | there is no reason not to tell myth to transcode it now... since I have the file... |
[13:25:18] | toad_: | 2008-10–07 14:24:47.372 JobQueue: Transcode Errored: Freaky Eaters "Addicted to Crisps": High Quality (exit status 0, job status was "Running") |

[13:30:24] | toad_: | so it's probably not a hardware problem |

[13:34:14] | mzb_d800: | toad_: the only time I end up with recordings that (eventually) miss audio is when the recording has (reception?) errors and I attempt a lossless transode. I find transcoding to mpeg4 to be the easiest solution. |
[13:34:39] | mzb_d800: | (audio missing after the error(s)) |
[13:35:13] | mzb_d800: | try building from 0.21-fixes |
[13:36:03] | toad_: | yay more maintenance overhead ... but maybe it's worth it ... |
[13:36:30] | toad_: | within the branch there won't be backwards incompatible changes? |
[13:36:38] | toad_: | so I could go back to the packages? |
[13:37:32] | mzb_d800: | depends ... I went to source so long ago I don't recall the difference |

[13:40:48] | mzb_d800: | make backups of the db and re-import? |
[13:42:55] | mzb_d800: | or avoid import stage and see if the source-build upgrades everything smoothly (it should do) |

[13:46:07] | justinh: | 2.2mbit/sec mpeg4.. probably not much of a space saving on UK DVB_T |
[13:46:21] | justinh: | on some channels it'd actually result in MORE space being eaten |
[13:46:29] | justinh: | like a lot more |
[13:46:39] | toad_: | the docs say 2.2 = 1GB/hour |
[13:46:42] | justinh: | itv4 et al are like < 1mbit |
[13:46:52] | toad_: | and most DVB are 2.7GB/hour |
[13:46:55] | toad_: | is that wrong? |
[13:47:02] | justinh: | it's bollocks |
[13:47:13] | justinh: | people quote 'typical' figures |
[13:47:20] | justinh: | but it varies according to the channel |
[13:47:32] | justinh: | BBC channels use the highest bitrates |
[13:47:44] | justinh: | Dr Who on BBC1 can be 3GB/hour |
[13:48:05] | justinh: | ITV4, Fiver, ITV3 & so on.. much, much less |
[13:48:06] | toad_: | iirc for most stuff we use 1600 |
[13:48:30] | justinh: | still not much of a saving IMHO, but it's your funeral |
[13:48:34] | toad_: | also it's VBR, presumably DVB for a single channel is a fixed bandwidth |
[13:48:41] | toad_: | we get TNGs down to 500MB or so |
[13:48:42] | justinh: | nope |
[13:48:48] | toad_: | doctor who is well under a gig |
[13:49:14] | toad_: | no? they dynamically allocate bandwidth to channels within a mux? woah |
[13:49:18] | justinh: | I transcoded the gadget show to about 500MB once. it looked awful so I've never done it again |
[13:49:52] | toad_: | are there known problems with amd64? that's another possible explanation for segfaults... |
[13:50:06] | justinh: | no comment |
[13:50:21] | justinh: | I heard there's FA benefit from running 64 bit stuff so I don't |
[13:50:38] | toad_: | on a server there is benefit |
[13:50:45] | justinh: | not worth the hassle for the small performance boost |
[13:50:49] | toad_: | but it's not a dedicated myth server |
[13:51:03] | toad_: | on a desktop the compatibility issues are a big hassle yeah |
[13:51:12] | justinh: | a home bsaed myth system prolly isn't what people would refer to as a 'server' either |
[13:51:24] | toad_: | well it does other stuff too |
[13:51:35] | justinh: | nor would much based at home |
[13:51:50] | toad_: | and specs are comparable to a low end dedicated server – i've hired stuff from bytemark with way less horsepower |
[13:51:59] | justinh: | I take it as meaning a box kept very busy with lots going on the whole time |
[13:52:08] | toad_: | agreed, getting good internet connectivity at home is hard |
[13:52:34] | toad_: | lots of servers don't match that description |
[13:52:57] | justinh: | a box with a HDD == server |
[13:53:13] | toad_: | only if it runs 24x7 |
[13:53:13] | mzb_d800: | (and nic;) |
[13:54:07] | justinh: | anyway, from what I've heard from people I trust is that 32 bits vs 64 bits isn't much of a difference in real terms to people who don't give a damn about 0.2% or whatever |
[13:54:25] | toad_: | i've heard higher figures, but i imagine it depends on your application |
[13:54:28] | laga_: | so my backend isn't a server because it's not running 24/7? ;) |
[13:55:01] | toad_: | anyway, it would be *way* more effort to switch the whole system to 32-bit than to keep it running in 64 :) |
[13:55:09] | mzb_d800: | I find more like 15–20% for most of the things I've tried ... but then I'm not in your circle of trust ;) |
[13:55:20] | toad_: | anyone had any bizarre problems with mythbackend on 64-bit? |
[13:55:21] | justinh: | hell if a 800 mhz athlon can happily serve 3 frontends at the same time, there's no real need for many horseys in a backend |
[13:55:26] | toad_: | mzb_d800: that's what i hear |
[13:55:56] | justinh: | 15–20%.. stil not enough of a boost in terms of the instability & hassle it can introduce |
[13:56:07] | toad_: | it introduces instability? |
[13:56:13] | mzb_d800: | bull |
[13:56:23] | justinh: | maybe not instablity but hassle |
[13:56:24] | toad_: | it introduces severe compatibility problems, that much i can vouch for |
[13:56:35] | mzb_d800: | rubbish |
[13:56:46] | toad_: | it's much better now than it used to be, sure |
[13:56:49] | justinh: | well, be that as it may. I can't be arsed with it |
[13:57:06] | justinh: | and it's still not as easy as just pluggin in 32 bits & going |
[13:57:07] | toad_: | well, if there are any known issues with it ... i'd like to hear about them :) |
[13:57:47] | justinh: | for the amount of time 64 bit computing has been available you'd hope that the state of affairs was better by now |
[13:58:25] | mzb_d800: | I've compared three different AMD CPU's (Sempron 64bit, Venice 3200+ and X2 3800+) and evaluated the difference between 32 + 64 on eacg |
[13:58:27] | toad_: | if everything you run is open source, 64-bit will work fine out of the box |
[13:58:27] | mzb_d800: | each |
[13:58:54] | toad_: | it took a while for OOo to get ported and stable, but now it is afaik |
[13:58:58] | mzb_d800: | the only issue I had was running 64bit on xen (which, iirc was an iptables issue) |
[13:59:18] | mzb_d800: | none of that applies now ... and was a xen/iptables issue |
[13:59:35] | mzb_d800: | running OO on a server? hmm |
[13:59:47] | toad_: | no i was talking about in general |
[14:00:08] | justinh: | maybe it's a lot better these days now more stuff is available on 64 bit & it doesn't have to be mixed with 32 bit apps |
[14:00:10] | toad_: | if you need to run commercial games etc, then you may have problems |
[14:00:32] | toad_: | so my desktop is 32-bit |
[14:00:57] | laga_: | you can still run chroots ;) |

[14:02:35] | mzb_d800: | justinh: it's not that everything is 64bit now, but many of the probem apps now usually work with either an installer that sets up a 32bit chroot, or they have better compatibility with 32bit libs in a 64bit userland |
[14:02:39] | mzb_d800: | (afaict) |

[14:03:16] | mzb_d800: | is that wet or dry string? |

[14:49:00] | toad_: | not use encrypted channels? |

[14:49:52] | olejl_: | I hope this will be handled by my CAM automatically |
[14:50:11] | justinh: | you should always scan properlyu in mythtv-setup, not importing channels.conf files |
[14:50:44] | olejl_: | Yes but I tried that, but couldn't find out how to do it. Anyone have a link? |
[14:50:45] | justinh: | importing channels.conf files (FOR THE LOVE OF GOD HOW MANY MORE TIMES?) misses out ESSENTIAL INFORMATION |

[14:52:59] | justinh: | for dvb-s scanning to work here's the part people are failing to write down in their howto guides: |
[14:53:11] | justinh: | you need to set an initial transponder for scanning to work |
[14:53:26] | justinh: | you can find the info for that in a channels.conf file |
[14:55:27] | olejl_: | So I would go to Input Connections, and then scan for channels and then Full Scan (tuned)? |
[14:55:35] | justinh: | yup |
[14:55:46] | justinh: | using the tuning frequency from a line in channels.conf |
[14:56:00] | justinh: | and as many other details.. symbol rate, FEC etc as you can give it |

[15:30:20] | hume: | to be more complete: i ran tv_grab_swedb_se --conifigure, and choose channels, but still that .xmltv-file is empty |

[15:30:43] | hume: | any one got advice? |

[15:46:12] | hume: | but sure, i'll try what you suggest |
[15:46:27] | justinh: | well of course not because you're running it as the user magnus – ie YOU |
[15:48:14] | hume: | you want me to copy xxx.xmltv FROM user magnus, TO mythtv? or .xmltv-folder from magnus to mythtv? |
[15:48:27] | hume: | (sorry if I sound confused, but I am) |
[15:48:51] | justinh: | which .xmltv file has the correct information inside? |

[17:18:31] | toad_: | i'm still getting segfaults ! :< |
[17:18:43] | toad_: | this time, mythtranscode segfaulted in libc |
[17:18:47] | Shadow__X: | yeah wagnerrp i see that but can i allow only certain ips through there |
[17:18:56] | wagnerrp: | thats correct |
[17:19:43] | Shadow__X: | would i do /file/to/share 10.10.10.2/2(rw) |
[17:19:49] | toad_: | I've replaced the RAM, the disks, the CPU .. everything except for the motherboard... so it *might* be a hardware problem, but I haven't seen a segfault in any other app for quite some time... |
[17:19:50] | Shadow__X: | or how would i have that setup |
[17:20:17] | toad_: | except for java, but that seems to mainly happen when i try to debug stuff |
[17:20:21] | wagnerrp: | well a '/2' would give access to half the internet, not something you want to do |
[17:20:32] | Shadow__X: | hmm |
[17:20:34] | toad_: | you want /8 |
[17:21:04] | iamlindoro_: | whuuuuu? |
[17:21:12] | iamlindoro_: | no he doesn't |
[17:21:13] | wagnerrp: | '/8' is all 10.x addresses, excessively large, but at least not the internet at large |
[17:21:23] | Shadow__X: | yeah |
[17:21:38] | Shadow__X: | would i just get ride of the / |
[17:21:39] | wagnerrp: | chances are youre running a '/24' |
[17:21:44] | Shadow__X: | or could i |
[17:21:53] | Shadow__X: | well i just want to give certain machines access |
[17:21:55] | wagnerrp: | better yet, would be to just list the ips of the machines you want access |
[17:22:01] | toad_: | he's using 10.x.y.z, that suggests a /8 |
[17:22:01] | Shadow__X: | ah ok |
[17:22:20] | toad_: | but yeah listing IPs is better |
[17:22:34] | Shadow__X: | alright |
[17:23:01] | toad_: | are segfaults in myth *always* due to hardware problems? (amd64, was debian packages but recompiled today from 0.21-fixes) ? |
[17:23:35] | iamlindoro_: | They're more commonly "user compiled things wrong/against existing libs" issues |
[17:23:50] | toad_: | shouldn't the configure script prevent that? |
[17:23:50] | wagnerrp: | segfaults in myth are due to improperly accessing memory |
[17:24:05] | wagnerrp: | has nothing to do with hardware, rather a bug in the code |
[17:24:05] | toad_: | what do I have to check to verify that there isn't a library problem? |
[17:24:37] | toad_: | usually segfaults are hardware related in other apps |
[17:24:48] | iamlindoro_: | remove all existing vestiges of packaged or ancient myth from your system before compiling/installing |
[17:25:03] | clev: | wagnerrp: ive had Xorg segfault when it swapped into a bad sector before, but that harddrive was allready toast |
[17:25:11] | iamlindoro_: | And no, I would say that the majority of segfaults in any program are not hardware related |
[17:25:13] | toad_: | the segfaults are all over the place – in lame, in libc, or in myth itself (not in a library) |
[17:25:22] | wagnerrp: | usually segfaults have absolutely nothing to do with hardware |
[17:25:45] | wagnerrp: | anything which doesnt have error correction on user input is VERRRRYYYY easy to segfault |
[17:25:47] | clev: | usualy they are software bugs, but i have seen them caused by hardware damaging bytes and screwing things up |
[17:26:43] | toad_: | hmmm |
[17:26:50] | wagnerrp: | ive got some old f77 code i use at work, inputs have to be perfect or the code barfs |
[17:26:53] | Shadow__X: | clev, you work alot of ancient thrown away machiens |
[17:26:54] | Shadow__X: | :D |
[17:26:59] | toad_: | wagnerrp: sure, that's considered a buffer overflow |
[17:27:05] | toad_: | wagnerrp: and usually exploitable |
[17:27:08] | toad_: | i.e. bad bug |
[17:27:08] | clev: | Shadow__X: its my old laptop :P |
[17:27:14] | Shadow__X: | :) |
[17:27:21] | wagnerrp: | depends on the code |
[17:27:40] | wagnerrp: | the programs i run, if you dont do things properly, arrays dont get initialized |
[17:27:41] | clev: | wagnerrp: it could be asking for an index into an array of past answers |
[17:27:50] | clev: | which cant realy be exploited |
[17:27:50] | wagnerrp: | then the program tries to access the non-existant array |
[17:27:53] | wagnerrp: | instant segfault |
[17:27:58] | toad_: | where would i look for old bits of myth? |
[17:28:18] | toad_: | i've removed the old packages, but was getting segfaults even when using the packages |

[17:49:00] | wagnerrp: | id like to believe something you get pre-compiled should be relatively safe |

[19:20:47] | iamlindoro_: | Wheeeeee, linux is fun! |
[19:21:03] | Cursor: | so why isnt transcode working in myth? |
[19:21:04] | iamlindoro_: | So. MTD is running fine. |
[19:21:32] | justinh: | I fixed that guy's teletext inserter machine today. the program he paid a developer to write needed gnome-panel to work, and xubuntu is kinda missing that |
[19:21:43] | justinh: | he owes me big time now |
[19:23:28] | Gnea: | this isn't exactly a technical question, more of a "what works good for you?" kind of question – i'm looking at getting a new TV card – something that supports analog and hdtv. the wintv hvr 1600 is looking pretty good, but i wanted to see if anyone has had any issues with it or would recommend something else and why? |
[19:23:53] | iamlindoro_: | If you want a decent analog and digital tuner, it's a good choice. |
[19:24:15] | iamlindoro_: | If you want an analog tuner with hardware encoder that also has a digital tuner, it's your *only* choice that will work with myth. |
[19:24:31] | Gnea: | oh yeah? |
[19:24:35] | iamlindoro_: | yeah |
[19:24:53] | Cursor: | the message i get when i try to run transcode in myth is "no jobs and nothing else to do . you could rup a DVD." |

[19:25:39] | iamlindoro_: | This is why god made frontend and backend logs |
[19:25:49] | Gnea: | do they even make digital tuners that do hardware encoding? i mean, maybe i misunderstood what you said, but the way i'm interpretting it is that the hardware encoder only works for the analog side – am i incorrect? |
[19:25:59] | iamlindoro_: | You are correct. |
[19:26:08] | Gnea: | okay |
[19:26:29] | Cursor: | i looked at front end log and it just confused meee so i searched the error messages on google found some bits of info but all lead to a dead end |
[19:26:33] | Gnea: | what would you recommend for a decent digital with the encoding mechanism? |
[19:26:35] | justinh: | digital tuners don't need encoders on em for the digital part |
[19:26:41] | iamlindoro_: | Gnea: no such thing |
[19:26:44] | Gnea: | oh ok |
[19:26:53] | justinh: | all they do is pull the already encoded stream out of the ether |
[19:26:55] | Gnea: | sweet! |
[19:27:09] | Gnea: | er, yeah.. duh, hence why it's called 'digital' |
[19:27:14] | Gnea: | *facepalm* |
[19:27:22] | iamlindoro_: | analog w/ hardware encoder + Digital tuner that works in myth == HVR1600 and no other card. |
[19:27:26] | iamlindoro_: | So it's a simple choice. |
[19:28:14] | iamlindoro_: | You can get combined digital and analog cards without hardware encoders, but they suck. You can get other cards that have analog encoders and digital, but they don't work in myth. |
[19:28:36] | laga_: | how well does the hardware encoder work on that one? what driver? |
[19:29:03] | iamlindoro_: | ivtv |
[19:29:17] | laga_: | oooooh, überneat |
[19:29:25] | iamlindoro_: | so same as the PVR-xxxes more or les |
[19:29:28] | iamlindoro_: | ess |
[19:29:32] | iamlindoro_: | less (darnit!) |

[19:30:46] | Gnea: | okay, new problem though – according to hauppauge's site, ivtv won't fully support it until 2.6.26 and current standards are pointing at 2.6.24 – ugh |
[19:31:07] | iamlindoro_: | The card works fine today. |
[19:31:18] | laga_: | hum |
[19:31:21] | Gnea: | you own one? |
[19:31:27] | laga_: | i dont think i can get the 1600 in germany |
[19:31:28] | iamlindoro_: | You're not afraid to compile a driver, are you? |
[19:31:36] | Gnea: | not at all |
[19:32:02] | iamlindoro_: | Support for it is *in kernel* in 2.6.26. You can install the driver on anthing back to 2.6.18 |
[19:32:19] | Gnea: | and which version of the driver should i be looking at? |
[19:32:27] | iamlindoro_: | Whatever the current tip is |
[19:32:40] | iamlindoro_: | just download the source, compile, install. Simple. |
[19:33:38] | Toxicity999 (Toxicity999!n=bryan@unaffiliated/Toxicity999) has quit ("leaving") | |
[19:34:07] | iamlindoro_: | just follow the repo instructions at www.linuxtv.org/repo |
[19:34:14] | Gnea: | well according to the site, it's saying that 1.3.0 is the latest, but that it's strictly for 2.6.26 and up. 1.1.0 would work with 2.6.24 |
[19:34:22] | Gnea: | http://ivtvdriver.org/index.php/Main_Page |
[19:35:11] | iamlindoro_: | Gnea: I'm not going to argue with you-- the card works fine. You shouldn't be installing the driver from there anyway. |
[19:35:22] | iamlindoro_: | Like I said, www.linuxtv.org/repo |
[19:35:29] | Gnea: | okay :) |
[19:35:43] | iamlindoro_: | follow instructions. Compile and install. |
[19:36:13] | iamlindoro_: | get the latest firmware for the card, install in appropriate place for your distro, modprobe, done. |

[19:36:49] | iamlindoro_: | It may be DVB-T + Analog insteat, though |
[19:37:08] | Gnea: | hrm, it's not working right |
[19:37:14] | iamlindoro_: | laga_: HVR-1300 I think |
[19:37:23] | iamlindoro_: | Gnea: *What's* not working right? |
[19:37:27] | Gnea: | Click on the "tags" link, to display a list of the current tags |
[19:37:30] | Gnea: | there are no tags. |
[19:38:01] | iamlindoro_: | Follow the "Checkout V4L-DVB or dvb-apps" instructions |
[19:38:10] | Gnea: | or is the bz2/gz links i should just go to? |
[19:38:16] | iamlindoro_: | It's all sort of a moot point if you don't have the card. |
[19:38:23] | iamlindoro_: | Check out via mercurial |
[19:38:40] | iamlindoro_: | Then follow "How to build the v4l-dvb kernel modules" |
[19:38:46] | iamlindoro_: | Seek support in #linuxtv, not here |
[19:38:47] | Gnea: | well, if the driver isn't going to work, what's the point in getting the card? |
[19:38:52] | iamlindoro_: | jesus fuck |
[19:38:52] | Gnea: | okay |

[19:42:32] | Gnea: | well, if you're going to talk to people like that here, why should I bother going there just to have the same crap handed to me? thanks for the info. |
[19:42:40] | Gnea (Gnea!i=gnea@unaffiliated/gnea) has left #mythtv-users () | |
[19:43:18] | Cursor: | iamlindoro_: so do you want me to dump the backend and front end log into pastebin to show you ? cause its all like another language to me xD |
[19:43:32] | iamlindoro_: | "Hmph! Now that I have had everything I asked for handed to me, you're a big jerk!!" |
[19:43:52] | iamlindoro_: | Cursor: You can pastebin, someone will likely look at it, I might if I have time |
[19:44:26] | iamlindoro_: | Generally comes down to "user didn't go through the rip dvd setup screens to set up the temp directory/temp directory doesn't exist/user doesn't have permissions to that directory" |
[19:45:37] | Cursor: | would that be a myth configuration or transcode itself cause transcodes not working for other software |
[19:46:04] | justinh: | wow. compiling really eats battery power right up |
[19:46:07] | iamlindoro_: | has nothing to do with other software |
[19:46:42] | iamlindoro_: | If you don't know what I'm talking about about the rip DVD temp directory setting, then with 99% certainty I can say that's your problem |
[19:47:12] | Dagmar: | Cursor: Dont let iamlindoro discourage you. We very much like pastebin here because the alternatives are insane |
[19:47:33] | iamlindoro_: | The Myth Setup menus are, in spite of what people who are scared by words may say, fairly straightforward. Find the DVD rip settings menu and the first item is the temp dir. |
[19:47:33] | Dagmar: | They amount to a) people flooding the channel with noise we don't care about by the ton or b) the people who refuse to give any solid technical detail |
[19:47:44] | iamlindoro_: | Dagmar: When in the world did I discourage pastebinning? |
[19:47:59] | Dagmar: | s/straightforward/straightforward (but seemingly endless)/; |
[19:48:21] | Dagmar: | iamlindoro: The "I might if I have time" could be taken as snark. :/ |
[19:48:33] | Dagmar: | Not that there was anything wrong with that verbiage in my eyes |
[19:48:39] | iamlindoro_: | Nonsense. I have a job, it's fair that I would only look at someone's problem if I have time. |
[19:48:51] | Dagmar: | Yeah, but remember, people on IRC don't think about things like that |
[19:49:18] | iamlindoro_: | Exactly-- people presume a single answer is an offer to personally troubleshoot their problem-- ergo my statement that I'll look if I can. |
[19:50:04] | Cursor: | i was trying to say its nothing to do with mythsettings because transcode wont work with other software either ?!?! i've not just come on here to annoy you guys i spent the last 2 nights lookin for information and trying to fix my problem and when i got no where i got adviced to come on here |
[19:50:26] | iamlindoro_: | Cursor: Myth doesn't use any other software's transcode. |
[19:50:45] | Dagmar: | So if `transcode` is failing then you've got a problem with `transcode` basically. |
[19:50:53] | Cursor: | yes |
[19:50:55] | Dagmar: | If you can cough up the error message transcode gives tho, we still might know something about it |
[19:51:05] | Dagmar: | If you're lucky you're just missing a library |

[19:51:25] | iamlindoro_: | This is getting silly-- just pastebin your frontend and backend logs for when you attempt a DVD rip. |
[19:51:47] | iamlindoro_: | Cursor: Have you or have you not manually set the DVD rip temp directory to a directory that you own/can write to? |
[19:51:59] | iamlindoro_: | If you don't know what I mean, then THAT IS YOUR PROBLEM |
[19:52:28] | Cursor: | i've gone throug n set the temp dir to a dir in my home folder |
[19:52:41] | iamlindoro_: | Your inability to transcode in other software has *nothing* to do with your inability to do so in myth. |
[19:52:43] | iamlindoro_: | *nothing*. |
[19:53:07] | iamlindoro_: | Pastebin your logs. Until you do, stop trying to tell us where the problem lies, as *you do not know* where it is. |
[19:53:32] | Cursor: | okay |
[19:55:05] | Cursor: | http://pastebin.ca/1222020 |
[19:56:58] | iamlindoro_: | go to a terminal-- killall mtd |
[19:57:02] | iamlindoro_: | mtd -d |
[19:57:02] | Dagmar: | So that would indicate a problem with mtd |
[19:57:17] | iamlindoro_: | when it runs in the terminal, try a DVD rip |
[19:57:21] | Dagmar: | LIne 10 should have kinda been a giveaway as to what to do |
[19:57:23] | iamlindoro_: | then pastebin the mtd output |
[19:57:33] | iamlindoro_: | No, that's his old stuff |
[19:57:38] | iamlindoro_: | His pastebinned into his last pastebin |
[19:57:47] | iamlindoro_: | Note the timestamp differences |
[19:57:49] | Cursor: | yeah its at the top of that paste bin |
[19:57:53] | iamlindoro_: | He tried to run a second isntance before |
[19:58:10] | Cursor: | and the output for mtd -d is same as mtd -n which is top of the paste bin |
[19:58:17] | iamlindoro_: | Cursor: Then you didn't kill mtd |
[19:58:29] | iamlindoro_: | kill -9 5671 |
[19:58:34] | iamlindoro_: | then try mtd -d again |
[19:59:32] | Cursor: | okay |
[19:59:38] | Cursor: | i got huge load of errors now |
[19:59:53] | iamlindoro_: | $5 on permissions |

[20:00:15] | Cursor: | http://pastebin.ca/1222030 |
[20:00:33] | Cursor: | its saying to do with libdvdcss but i updated that n encrypted dvds play |
[20:00:39] | iamlindoro_: | Well that's different at least |
[20:00:57] | iamlindoro_: | That doesn't mean that whatever version you went to is compatible with this version of mtd |
[20:01:19] | Cursor: | its the latest version i updated it about hour ago to check its not that |
[20:01:19] | iamlindoro_: | sounds/looks like your versions of libdvdread and libdvdcss don't like each other |
[20:01:34] | iamlindoro_: | Why would you assume that it being the latest version is a *good* thing? |
[20:01:56] | iamlindoro_: | Newst or oldest doesn't matter, these things have to *match* each other |
[20:02:08] | iamlindoro_: | And these *do not*. |
[20:04:26] | Cursor: | right lol let me av a mess around with versions n gettin um to match n i'll be back with feedback in a minute |

[20:36:00] | Cursor: | then will you be able to better advice me? |
[20:36:04] | iamlindoro_: | actually you can go to #ubuntu-mythtv |

[21:03:55] | ll2: | hi there |
[21:04:11] | ll2: | how can I find the correct encoding of EIT ? |
[21:05:17] | ll2: | i get strange symbols instead of chars + accents |

[21:10:08] | iamlindoro_: | If I had to guess, your problem will be solved in myth .22. I believe in .21 that the database is latin. In trunk and in the next release, it'll be UTF |
[21:11:06] | iamlindoro_: | UTF-8, that is |
[21:12:18] | ll2: | should i just convert all mysql tables to utf8? |
[21:12:30] | iamlindoro_: | Not if you ever want to upgrade that DB |
[21:12:57] | iamlindoro_: | I would avoid manipulating the DB, especially the character set, yourself |
[21:13:18] | ll2: | there´s a page in wiki that talks about that |
[21:13:18] | iamlindoro_: | If there is any way of you doing so, I would recomment that you just live with it until .22 |
[21:13:24] | iamlindoro_: | That page is very very very wrong |
[21:13:29] | ll2: | hm... |
[21:13:32] | iamlindoro_: | note the huge note at the top |
[21:13:43] | iamlindoro_: | about how you will *break* your DB going forward if you follow the page |
[21:13:51] | ll2: | hehehe |
[21:14:33] | iamlindoro_: | "Following the mysql portion of this guide will make it difficult or impossible to upgrade to 0.22 or trunk! In short, don't do it!" |
[21:14:47] | ll2: | ok, i will live with it until .22 |
[21:15:07] | ll2: | is there a expected date to .22? |
[21:15:19] | iamlindoro_: | None set. |
[21:16:06] | ll2: | i undestand... but are we talking about few months, a year, more than a year? |
[21:16:18] | iamlindoro_: | Trunk has gone through some major changes that have started to calm down a bit-- there are one or two more major things coming up... I expect we would probably see .22 after those |
[21:16:36] | iamlindoro_: | I would think a few months is closer than a year |
[21:16:45] | iamlindoro_: | ie, a few months is probably the better guess |
[21:16:55] | ll2: | great |
[21:16:58] | iamlindoro_: | But that is as someone who doesn't get a vote in the matter |

[23:03:23] | wolfspirit: | question... it would seem that my mythtv logs when I got home were over 6 gigs! It appears that it is logging every time my remote hits a button and I have twin 2 years olds that like buttons :) I'm assuming this might be a debug mode? How would one turn this off? |
[23:05:39] | mzb_d800: | mythtv logs or syslog ? |
[23:05:42] | Thomas-: | start frontend/backend with -l none (or important, check the wiki) |
[23:06:33] | Thomas-: | or configure your logrotate to handle the file |
[23:07:15] | wolfspirit: | mzb_d800: the frontend logs |
[23:07:16] | iamlindoro: | that would be -v, -l is the logfilename |
[23:07:51] | wolfspirit: | a -v wouldn't be verbose? I would want the opposite of verbose |
[23:09:30] | mzb_d800: | "-v important" ... v = verbosity _level_ |
[23:09:55] | mzb_d800: | if you want nothing "-v none" |
[23:10:18] | iamlindoro: | or simply remove -v altogether |
[23:11:04] | iamlindoro: | (not to remove, but to avoid the problem of which to choose-- not using -v leaves it at normal, minimal logging) |
[23:11:50] | wolfspirit: | what are the logging levels? anything higher than important? like critical or something? |
[23:12:01] | mzb_d800: | -v help |
[23:12:02] | iamlindoro: | all, most |
[23:12:04] | iamlindoro: | etc. |

[23:28:19] | kormoc: | clev, christ... why shouldn't it? it wasn't coded to level out the recordings, so it's not screwing up |
[23:28:21] | clev: | Shadow__X: its an hour away from crashing |
[23:28:42] | clev: | kormoc: shouldnt it atleast go to a volume thats not in danger of overflowing? |
[23:28:44] | Shadow__X: | clev can i txt you |
[23:28:49] | kormoc: | Shadow__X, clev just loves bitching bout stuff he gets for free |
[23:28:50] | iamlindoro: | Your Myth setup is PERPETUALLY 1/2 hour away from crashing |
[23:28:51] | Shadow__X: | pm you |
[23:28:54] | clev: | kormoc: its configured to keep 5gig free |
[23:29:08] | kormoc: | clev, it figures out the estimated cost of the new recording and will search for one that will fit |
[23:29:21] | kormoc: | clev, you know it only ever expires on one SG, right? |
[23:29:30] | clev: | iamlindoro: it has ~4gig free on all my other storage groups, not counting the 5gig reserved each |
[23:29:34] | sphery: | kormoc: regarding the QUERY_TIME_ZONE change, feel free to ask me for an overview when you're writing the MythWeb support. If nothing else, it's important to note that you can get the zone ID "UNDEF" (to say we were unable to determine the zone ID--for example, on Windows we get UNDEF until someone writes Windows support). |

[23:30:10] | kormoc: | sphery, rgr. Hopefully I'll have some time this week |
[23:30:16] | sphery: | kormoc: In that case, you can either hope for the best or you can check the UTC offset and current time (which doesn't guarantee things will work, but is better than none). |
[23:30:21] | clev: | its been moving the dest for recordings about just fine so far, keeping things relatively level |
[23:30:51] | kormoc: | clev, pure luck. It doesn't do that yet |
[23:30:59] | kormoc: | sphery, rgr |
[23:31:07] | clev: | that may also explain why it keeps going against the autoexpire order |
[23:31:13] | clev: | and recording a show that it recorded 5mins ago |
[23:31:19] | clev: | instead of one from a month ago |
[23:31:34] | kormoc: | yes |
[23:31:55] | clev: | how would i know WHICH group it can expire from? |
[23:32:05] | clev: | (all the directorys are under the Default group) |
[23:32:11] | kormoc: | the first one defined I believe |
[23:33:39] | clev: | and that would be the tiny 15gig storage volume that has been full for the past 2 months:P |
[23:35:18] | clev: | next thing i should do is fix the damn code:P |
[23:35:43] | clev: | there are a few cases which i was expecting it to fail which i now see more details on |
[23:36:04] | clev: | if theres dir's, one with 1g deleted, and one with 1g on autoexpire |
[23:36:11] | clev: | which should it record to(and expire from) |
[23:37:47] | kormoc: | deleted always get expired first I believe |
[23:38:02] | clev: | the problem, the stupid thing may start recording to a group with nothing deleted |
[23:38:11] | clev: | and then have no choice but to expire something that isnt deleted |
[23:38:49] | clev: | and because of what you just mentioned, it may never expire from any other group |
[23:39:09] | clev: | and just by chance, i never had deleted shows on that 1st dir |
[23:43:09] | clev: | at the time a recording started, i had 2gig free on directory #5, 3gig below the limit, and yet thats the one it chose to record to |

[23:45:12] | clev: | kormoc: that storage group it just autoexpired from is #5 |
[23:45:13] | kormoc: | seems to have worked out in the end |
[23:45:28] | clev: | it ran 3gig below the limit before doing anything about it |
[23:45:36] | clev: | and it deleted from the 5th group not the 1st |
[23:45:59] | kormoc: | different rules for expire due to below min, expire for future recording, expire for deleted |

[23:51:56] | clev: | maybe a SIN number:P |
[23:52:10] | buttons1: | United states, satelite, |
[23:52:27] | clev: | sounds like dvb-s to me |
[23:52:34] | iamlindoro: | You can't do digital capture of for-pay satellite in the US |
[23:52:42] | iamlindoro: | (if you mean Dish/DirectTV, that is) |
[23:53:12] | kormoc: | buttons1, standard def? |
[23:53:14] | iamlindoro: | you can capture the analog outputs of the STB if you like. |
[23:53:26] | kormoc: | buttons1, and dish/direct or FTA? |
[23:53:30] | buttons1: | iamlindoro: DirecTV, kormoc: yes |
[23:53:47] | kormoc: | buttons1, a pvr 150 is a really good choice then |
[23:54:20] | buttons1: | kormoc: what do you mean pvr 150? |
[23:54:27] | kormoc: | buttons1, it will need to use a receiver, but they work really well together. You'll also need to get a ir blaster setup |
[23:54:37] | kormoc: | buttons1, it's a card, the happauge pvr 150 capture card |
[23:54:46] | buttons1: | ok |
