[00:50:49] wagnerrp: as in allow remote connections?
[00:50:55] nighthawk: no, local users
[00:51:22] nighthawk: for example, x runs as mythtv, but I want to launch mplayer as user nhawk
[00:51:23] wagnerrp: you can do the proper way, of copying around the ~/.Xauthority files, or you can do the cheap and easy way to 'xhost +localhost'
[00:51:36] nighthawk: cheap way for the win :-)
[00:52:05] wagnerrp: understand that effectively turns off authentication
[00:52:18] nighthawk: I'm playing around with setting up myth at boot, so curious what options are available
[00:52:26] wagnerrp: although if you have to worry about users with access to that machine messing with you, i suppose you have more important issues to deal with
[00:52:42] krisb: has anyone here used Room EQ wizard by any chance?
[00:52:44] nighthawk: exactly, it is essentially a single user machine
[00:53:05] GreyFoxx: nighthawk: Why not run X and mplayer as the same user ?
[00:54:04] nighthawk: to be honest, in trying to find out how to let another user connect, I forgot my original intention
[00:54:19] wagnerrp: yeah, what do you need to run mplayer as a different user for?... what do you need to run mplayer for?
[00:54:32] nighthawk: well, that was an example
[00:54:48] krisb: he doesn't want to store his porn as user mythtv :p
[00:55:01] nighthawk: haha, brilliant
[00:55:58] krisb: ah well, atleast I got Room RQ Wizard working
[00:56:19] krisb: too bad I can't really calibrate the sub at 75dB at 3am :|
[00:56:52] nighthawk: isn't low freq direction hard to identify? blame it on someone else!
[00:57:12] krisb: haha
[01:15:22] AndyCap: Ooh, a new frontend. With scart output. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem . . . 310139989784
[01:17:13] J-e-f-f-A: AndyCap: Just throw an nvidia card in that cartridge slot, and you're all set.  ;-)
[01:17:27] krisb: yeah, it even has a RS232 for yor homebrew IR receiver
[01:17:28] krisb: awesome
[01:17:33] krisb: your*
[01:17:43] krisb: need to clean the keyboard soon, apparently
[01:18:12] ** kormoc wonders why people still homebrew ir receivers **
[01:18:19] krisb: dunno
[01:18:23] nighthawk: they are cheaper
[01:18:25] krisb: I have a mceusb2 one
[01:18:31] krisb: that came with my laptop
[01:18:33] kormoc: not that much cheaper
[01:18:45] nighthawk: 10$
[01:18:46] ** J-e-f-f-A has a drawer of two full of electronic parts... ;-) **
[01:19:00] krisb: I wonder if I can get the HID consumer IR type receiver in the laptop to work with lirc
[01:19:05] nighthawk: I need to rip out the crap receiver in my antec fusion and replace it
[01:19:06] mchou (mchou!n=quassel@unaffiliated/mchou) has quit (Remote closed the connection)
[01:19:07] krisb: instead of the external USB one
[01:19:33] kormoc: nighthawk, vs $20 for a usb one, it's not /that/ much more
[01:19:40] J-e-f-f-A: nighthawk: crap receiver in antec fusion? Mine seems to work fine....  ;-)
[01:20:01] nighthawk: I have a fusion black with imon lcd, it only reads MCE remote signals :-(
[01:20:05] AndyCap: Hmm, my miniitx board has some header for CIR send and receive, dunno where to find the hardware though.
[01:20:24] J-e-f-f-A: nighthawk: Well, that's not *entrirely* true – it only reads RC6 codes... ;-)
[01:20:26] nighthawk: kormoc: where was this 20$ receiver when I was shopping around a month ago :-P
[01:20:37] kormoc: nighthawk, you didn't look very hard?
[01:20:42] nighthawk: you sure? I read MCE only on this model
[01:20:46] AndyCap: then again, if I buy a new tv I can switch to all rs-232 control.
[01:20:49] nighthawk: kormoc: apparently not, what model you have?
[01:21:41] kormoc: It's not the model I have, but http://www.directron.com/hair01sv.html?gsear=1
[01:22:09] J-e-f-f-A: nighthawk: if you have lirc up and running on the box, type "mode2" and push some buttons on the remote you want to use. If you see output, I'd wager you can learn the remote...
[01:22:11] nighthawk: does that read all rc5 or raw?
[01:22:31] kormoc: wouldn't know

[01:22:42] nighthawk: jeffa: not on the particular model I have, I spent a lot of time on it
[01:22:48] krisb: yeah I will go RS232 only as soon as I get around to sourcing a 8-pin mini-DIN plug for the projector
[01:23:08] krisb: couldn't just put a standard 9-pin DSUB on it? nooooo
[01:23:23] nighthawk: krisb: if mouser.com doesnt have it, it doesn't exist
[01:23:43] krisb: yeah I actually just need to get around to ordering it
[01:24:31] krisb: haven't looked through my cables yet, I might be able to modify a 9-pin mini-DIN plug
[01:25:06] krisb: but its not like theres no space for a D-SUB connector, so it annoys me that I have to make my own cable
[01:25:48] J-e-f-f-A: krisb: You don't have to make your own cable – I'm sure they have one for sale for $50!  ;-)
[01:25:59] krisb: yeah probably
[01:26:03] krisb: :p
[01:26:43] nighthawk: also check monoprice.com, they have premade everything and cheap
[01:27:51] krisb: shipping to norway is probably the dealbreaker though
[01:28:54] nighthawk: they are one of the best av accessory vendors in history, so who knows...
[01:29:06] nighthawk: they might pay you to ship it
[01:30:00] AndyCap: hdmi might be worth getting from monoprice Cat5 probably not
[01:30:17] AndyCap: anything light and expensive is probably better. :P
[01:30:59] krisb: everything is cheaper than here
[01:31:36] AndyCap: unless you need to spruce up the living room with stuff http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp . . . amp;format=2 you can't find in your shop. (Or don't want to ask for)

[01:32:52] krisb: $2.55 for 25 ft? thats like.. free
[01:34:13] AndyCap: 2.25 for cable, 28.75 for shipping. so I'd say i's about the same as getting it locally.
[01:35:05] krisb: yeah costs about $20-$25 for a 10m one locally
[01:35:14] krisb: converted to USD

I don't have great reception but the TV manages to give me a good pciture. My DViCO Dual Digital 4 was not even watchable. I have looked around but no one seems to have an answer?
[01:54:54] wagnerrp: get a bigger antenna?

[02:39:28] sphery: why--when a movie has a trademarked logo in it, like a Coca Cola can or a Virgin Records logo on the side of a van--do some networks blur it
[02:39:55] sphery: seems really strange to me
[02:40:17] wagnerrp: ive never seen that
[02:40:45] sphery: really?
[02:40:51] sphery: maybe it's only my local stations
[02:41:50] iamlindoro: I also have seen that
[02:42:03] iamlindoro: especially reality style programming
[02:42:27] Nafai: iamlindoro: They have to clear the appearance of those things with the brand holder. If they don't make those agreements, they have to blur them.
[02:42:37] sphery: in reality programming it makes more sense--as they might get in trouble for it if they don't have permission
[02:42:45] Nafai: iamlindoro: Which I don't understand, you'd like Coke (for example) would like the free advertising
[02:42:52] Nafai: you'd think, that is
[02:42:52] iamlindoro: Nafai, I didn't ask
[02:42:55] iamlindoro: :)
[02:43:05] Nafai: Oh
[02:43:11] Nafai: sphery: ^
[02:43:14] Nafai: Sorry, tired :)
[02:43:17] sphery: but when a movie was released with the logo prominently displayed--and the company probably paid to put it there--it's weird that they would just choose to blur it for re-broadcast
[02:43:40] wagnerrp: they didnt pay the broadcast company did they?
[02:43:50] sphery: no
[02:44:19] sphery: but it seems a lot of work for the re-broadcaster to do just to prevent giving away a bit of free advertising
[02:44:21] wagnerrp: alternatively, the broadcasting company has gone to the dark side, and has an exclusive deal with pepsi
[02:44:30] sphery: that could be
[02:44:37] wagnerrp: erm... pisswater
[02:44:58] wagnerrp: i apologize, i slipped up there
[02:45:03] sphery: or the other record store... wait, Virgin was the only one--until they closed down all their stores :)

[03:12:29] sphery: I wish someone would google that for me (cause a normal google gives me a lot of stuff that doesn't relate to tron)
[03:12:50] wagnerrp: well what does it give you stuff relating to?
[03:13:05] kormoc: what are you even talking about?
[03:13:11] kormoc: thirteen floors?
[03:13:18] kormoc: thirteen trons?
[03:13:30] sphery: some guy from House?

[03:13:43] kormoc: %s/guy/hawt gal/
[03:13:44] wagnerrp: ok... yeah, nothing on the first couple pages of results was what i was referring to
[03:13:54] wagnerrp: http://www.imdb.com/character/ch0041162
[03:14:38] sphery: definitely an obscure reference for those of us who don't watch house
[03:14:44] kormoc: ahh, cutie
[03:14:57] kormoc: I watch house, but didn't put it together
[03:16:10] wagnerrp: so is jeff bridges supposed to be the master control program?
[03:16:27] iamlindoro: Jeff Bridges was the hero of the original tron
[03:16:29] iamlindoro: "The operator"
[03:16:34] wagnerrp: yeah, i know
[03:16:40] iamlindoro: so he's not the MCP
[03:17:09] wagnerrp: but they have him looking down ominously on someone getting killed in a light-cycle fight, from his creepy mountainside room
[03:17:30] ** iamlindoro shrugs **
[03:17:37] iamlindoro: I'm going to go out on a limb and bet he's not the bad guy
[03:21:32] sphery: So, tonight this aired the 1979 movie Meteor, whose description is almost identical to the bad miniseries called Meteor that just aired. I'll have to watch it to find out if the miniseries was a remake.
[03:21:53] wagnerrp: looks like theres a third batman to be out in 2011
[03:22:26] sphery: heh, I like how you forgot about all the other ones... I did the same.
[03:22:42] wagnerrp: i didnt forget about all of them
[03:22:48] wagnerrp: i did forget about the second pair
[03:22:55] wagnerrp: but the tim burton ones were enjoyable
[03:23:03] wagnerrp: i mean the third in this current series
[03:23:10] sphery: I didn't like any of them before this series.

[04:22:51] wagnerrp: so have a very basic window manager
[04:23:05] nighthawk: I don't think that would solve it
[04:23:15] wagnerrp: you can find ones that sit resident with a few hundred KB of memory usage
[04:23:40] nighthawk: xsetroot should do it immediately
[04:23:58] wagnerrp: indeed it should
[04:24:08] nighthawk: why wont xorg.conf take the xsetroot options
[04:24:37] sphery: you should really have a window manager, anyway--after all you have multiple windows and they need managing
[04:24:55] nighthawk: the idea is only mythfrontend
[04:24:56] wagnerrp: what multiple windows would he have?
[04:25:05] sphery: mythfrontend is multiple windows
[04:25:09] nighthawk: I'm aiming at flawless kiosk
[04:25:19] nighthawk: doesnt mythfrontend manage itself?
[04:25:33] wagnerrp: yeah, i thought mythfrontend was supposed to be able to run manager-less
[04:25:35] sphery: no, it's not an app's job to manage windows
[04:25:40] sphery: that's what a window manager is for

[04:30:38] sphery: you're right not to run a Desktop Environment (GNOME/KDE/XFCE), but skipping the WM is a micro-optimization that causes problems and really has no benefit

[04:45:31] nawlins: hi room
[04:45:35] wagnerrp: yes, you have to 'runas' it
[04:46:26] nawlins: whenever you have a second, how do i make mythfrontend full screen?
[04:47:10] wagnerrp: mythfrontend is always full screen
[04:47:15] wagnerrp: unless you specifically tell it not to be
[04:47:51] wagnerrp: unless youre talking about some known issue with gnome, where mythtv cannot force the toolbars off screen
[04:48:28] nawlins: im looking at the xfce menu on top and the background off the right side rt now, i never told it not to be
[04:48:29] wagnerrp: and great... now my right screen is on my left, and my left monitor is dead
[04:49:06] wagnerrp: unless you specify that you want windowed use in the appearance settings or on the command line, mythtv will run full screen
[04:49:23] wagnerrp: its very possible that mythtv cannot draw over your window manager
[04:49:35] wagnerrp: in which case that is telling you to get a lighter window manager
[04:50:02] wagnerrp: sounds like youre having the same issue as with gnome
[04:50:42] nawlins: hum, if itd windowed, it wouldnt be that bad if it was centered
[04:51:34] wagnerrp: again, unless you specified otherwise, mythtv will take the entire space defined by your current screen
[04:51:40] wagnerrp: which by definition means it will be centered
[04:52:33] nawlins: i never told it not to be, ill have to look for that setting
[04:52:45] wagnerrp: can it be??? i dont have to restart windows after updating video drivers??? thats amazing
[04:53:07] wagnerrp: nawlins: that stuff should all be in the appearance options, under settings, setup
[04:53:09] wagnerrp: in the frontend
[04:53:18] nawlins: ty
[04:54:01] nawlins: oh and btw is there an easy way to catch live tv on windows?
[04:54:17] wagnerrp: possible.. kinda, easy... no
[04:55:01] wagnerrp: you can do recordings just fine
[04:55:12] wagnerrp: but the only way to do livetv is through an actual mythfrontend
[04:55:29] wagnerrp: and while you can get mythfrontend to compile under windows, it is not a simple nor stable prospect
[04:56:02] sphery: nawlins: in Utilities/Setup|Settings|Appearance you'll find "Run the frontend in a window" and "GUI width (px)" and "GUI height (px)" and "GUI X offset" and "GUI Y offset" . Read the help text for them (bottom of screen).
[04:56:13] sphery: basically, set width/height to 0 for full screen
[04:56:28] wagnerrp: which they should already be unless you changed them
[04:56:34] wagnerrp: either there, or in the screen setup wizard
[04:58:14] nawlins: thank you, im trying it now
[04:59:25] wagnerrp: note that mythtv is not designed for a dynamic resolution
[04:59:45] wagnerrp: if this is on a tv, you should probably find something lighter than xfce
[05:00:02] wagnerrp: if this is on a desktop, you probably want to drop the resolution and make it windowed, so you can more easily use it with other apps
[05:05:03] nawlins: that worked out well, i can still see the xfce bar, but its not as nearly as off, you guys are great.
[05:05:37] nawlins: thanks again

[06:41:46] dubstar_04: I would stick with the supported cards if i was you...
[06:42:24] rallystile: i think u guys are right

[06:43:39] rallystile: i live in TW and hauppauge isn't sold here
[06:44:07] wagnerrp: if youre using analog, you want an IVTV card
[06:44:43] wagnerrp: the hauppauge 150/500 cards are the two most common cards, but theres a whole list
[06:44:50] wagnerrp: i believe there are a couple avermedia cards on that list
[06:44:55] wagnerrp: check out ivtvdriver.org
[06:45:21] wagnerrp: u
[06:48:29] rallystile: thank you. yes i am using analog...but in Taiwan there's also this thing called MOD, that delivers digital content (some HD) over the internet. is IVTV still the preferred driver to look for in a card?

[06:50:01] wagnerrp: for analog, absolutely
[06:50:12] wagnerrp: you dont even want to bother with the generic v4l framegrabbers
[06:50:30] wagnerrp: which leaves the ivtv cards, and a handful of rare and far more expensive options
[06:52:26] rallystile: IVTV is also okay for digital capture?
[06:52:36] wagnerrp: IVTV is analog only
[06:53:11] wagnerrp: you can use it to capture off a digital STB, but thats as far as it goes
[06:54:51] rallystile: i'm looking at the back of my digital set top box and it receives the signal via Ethernet cable from my modem/router.
[06:55:51] rallystile: it has 2 ways to output S-Video and HDMI...could I capture the signal on my MythTV setup?
[06:55:59] wagnerrp: svideo, yes
[06:56:08] wagnerrp: HDMI, in the near future
[06:56:41] wagnerrp: there is a device called a HDPVR, analog component capture box
[06:56:49] wagnerrp: captures HD up to 1080i
[06:57:25] wagnerrp: if your box doesnt have component, then you buy a second part, a hdfury2, HDMI (w/ HDCP) to component
[06:57:57] rallystile: "doesn't have component", what does that mean?
[06:58:10] rallystile: the interface i mean

[07:04:17] wagnerrp: well the HDHR and 1250 get my local broadcast digital channels, the 150s are for analog cable
[07:04:46] wagnerrp: the single 1250 wasnt really enough so i got the HDHR to supplement it
[07:05:03] wagnerrp: but since the HDHR is a dual tuner, and i have it set first, i rarely ever use the 1250 anymore
[07:06:26] wagnerrp: personally, i consider two tuners per source to be a minimum

[07:13:32] wagnerrp: it lets you have some overlap, without one getting cut off

[13:04:32] AndyCap: ...
[13:04:41] orogor: AndyCap, do you have anyinsight abouyt the codec thingy? how would i do to let myttv record livetv as it is received (mpeg2) instead of trying to encode it in x264 ?
[13:06:07] AndyCap: if you are actually using digital it doesn't encode anything
[13:06:24] AndyCap: if you're not using digital, well, then it's not received as mpeg2. :)
[13:06:27] mkrufky: i built myth from trunk once before, a long while back, but i'd like to built latest now to do some tests... i know it's not SUPPORTED, but it there a writeup anywhere on how to do it ?
[13:07:03] AndyCap: mkrufky: I think there's something on the wiki. but I just checked it out and built it. :P
[13:07:27] mkrufky: that simple, eh? ok... i dont even know the checkout url
[13:07:51] orogor: AndyCap, humm odd because i see frequent errors in the console about h264 related errors (or so i think), and if i look up video properties of livetv files in mplayer i see it s h264

[13:10:18] mkrufky: the developer of that driver doesnt seem to be interested in fixing any of the problems users report
[13:10:22] AndyCap: oh, and of course my other available choice had a driver, then micronas took the toys and went home.
[13:10:36] AndyCap: mkrufky: which one of them? :)
[13:10:37] mkrufky: 330e?
[13:10:48] mkrufky: i tend to not mention names...
[13:10:59] mkrufky: but there is always an author tag in the module or source code
[13:11:22] AndyCap: anyhow. I got the tree with the most recent activty working after a fashion
[13:11:44] AndyCap: which reminds me I should look at some other drivers to see if they're all so devoid of well, everything. :P
[13:11:51] mkrufky: ur using this mantis thing for dvbc + ci i guess?
[13:11:57] mycosys: least urs is working lol
[13:12:21] mycosys: got ec168 drivers compiled (only source i could find) only to get symbol errors

[13:19:01] Dibblah: janneg: Card?
[13:19:05] mkrufky: is there any sense in me testing fixes? that stuff goes to the distros rather quickly anyway, right?
[13:19:24] Dibblah: janneg: And kernel version?
[13:19:52] janneg: budget_ci with TDA10021, 2.6.30.1

[13:20:06] mkrufky: janneg: yeah, i agree it would be nice to know that stuff Dibblah asked ... also, does myth stop the stream and close the dvb devices before this new tune?
[13:20:08] AndyCap: mkrufky: is what my package says

[13:20:41] Dibblah: mkrufky: It has been declared DVB stress weekend :)
[13:21:04] mkrufky: i understand ... im going to test trunk instead because im looking for compatibility related things
[13:21:14] mkrufky: Dibblah: oh? what else is wtrong?
[13:21:38] janneg: mkrufky: the frontend fd is held open, not sure about the demux fd
[13:22:32] mkrufky: should be ok to hold open the frontend fd, but for a test i would see if closing it and repoening changes this behavior... and check on demux too ....
[13:22:56] janneg: yeah, looking for the demux now

[13:24:13] ** AndyCap goes shopping. **
[13:24:27] orogor: Anduin, also would you know why all recording profiles would show the same settings?

[13:24:52] orogor: AndyCap,
[13:24:59] orogor: gra he s gone
[13:26:37] janneg: mkrufky: the dvr fd should be closed
[13:27:13] mkrufky: myth is using legacy dvb api or the s2 stuff?
[13:27:21] janneg: legacy
[13:27:53] mkrufky: maybe there is a regression from the s2 changes? did you say which dvb code ur running yet?
[13:28:27] janneg: from dvb drivers from 2.6.30
[13:29:11] mkrufky: do you have an alt code path where u can use the s2 instead to see if that fixes it?
[13:29:22] mkrufky: for instance.......
[13:29:40] mkrufky: hang on lemme look at something
[13:31:55] janneg: S2 is not ready yet I could probably add a GET_PROPERTY ioctl to see if it returns something else
[13:31:57] mkrufky: seems like the legacy api's wrapper to the new api might be setting the new properties but never commiting them

[13:34:44] mkrufky: and which device is this?
[13:34:55] orogor: sorry to spam about that , but is it normal all my default transcode settings are using rtjpeg and the same settings ?
[13:38:08] janneg: budget_ci with tda10021
[13:38:37] janneg: mkrufky: closing and reopening the frontend fd before tuning doesn't make a difference
[13:38:53] mkrufky: janneg: did you try with another device?
[13:39:32] mkrufky: i have never seen this issue myself and it sounds like it could be hardware dependent

[13:40:21] awalls: the mythfrontend doesn't behave well for low/no digital signal for me
[13:40:37] awalls: a black unresponsive screen
[13:40:47] awalls: I can change inputs, but not channels
[13:41:03] mkrufky: same happens for me on bad signals

[13:42:19] janneg: mkrufky: I have no further DVB-C device with different hardware. I'm trying it now on the second budget_ci+tda10021 card
[13:42:45] mkrufky: does the problem not happen on dvb-T ?
[13:43:54] janneg: mkrufky: I still suspect a mythtv bug since I think it worked 11 days ago
[13:44:05] janneg: mkrufky: never seen before
[13:44:09] mkrufky: hmm wierd
[13:44:44] mkrufky: awalls: i dont see how that fits janneg's problem, but if you do then maybe im missing something ?

[17:00:20] kormoc: what?

[17:00:33] kormoc: you're not making any sense

[17:01:47] stoth: orogor: recording with multiple tuner cards is working for everyone else.
[17:02:00] kormoc: orogor, erm... sure... so what's the issue?
[17:02:02] jblack: on ubuntu, there's an xdialog run with mythtv-setup that asks whether to shut down the backend. That may be what he's talking about, if he's running ubuntu and that's not part of the standard release
[17:02:21] orogor: jblack, haaa that sit
[17:02:22] stoth: correct, it asks to stop the backend on ubuntu.
[17:02:56] orogor: i record via iptv, if thats an issue
[17:04:04] stoth: orogor, I don't think anyone knows what your talking about. You need to explain step by step what you're trying to wo, and why it's not working.
[17:04:16] stoth: s/wo/do/
[17:04:46] orogor: i record via iptv with a freebox , i have 3 cards configured with one input on each card using the same program list
[17:05:12] orogor: sceduling a 1h show at 17h and a onehour show at 17h30 for exemple
[17:05:27] stoth: so your basically telling us that your using analog encoders to capture analog output from a stb?
[17:05:51] orogor: the 17h show starts fine, the 17h30 show seems to start fine in logs and display a tuner busy , bit file is created and nothing is actually recorded
[17:06:23] orogor: no , i use iptv, i stream mpg2 stuff from the net
[17:06:48] stoth: ahh. No idea what you're talking about then. I only use tv capture cards.
[17:06:51] ** stoth wanders off **
[17:07:46] orogor: stuff that ticke me , it shows cardid 4, but i have only 23 cards
[17:07:50] orogor: stuff that ticke me , it shows cardid 4, but i have only 3 cards
[17:08:05] kormoc: just ignore the card id

[17:26:32] sphery: nope
[17:26:33] wagnerrp: na, hes a US user
[17:27:26] wagnerrp: i imagine there are only a handful of you (lucky) users... and one dev
[17:28:43] sphery: wagnerrp: the cardinputid is the one that determines input (less precisely, but colloquially, "card") preference... The cardid is truly meaningless.
[17:29:37] wagnerrp: ah, right
[17:29:46] sphery: My cards are shown in backend status as 1, 2, 3, 4, though the preference of inputs is those on cards 1, 3, 4, 2
[17:29:53] wagnerrp: and there currently is no place in setup to see the inputid
[17:29:58] wagnerrp: order
[17:30:07] sphery: probably true...
[17:30:27] sphery: I'll consider it if I get around to patching that internal data out... Try to find a good way to present it.
[17:30:57] sphery: unfortunately, when users do bad things like put input preferences in place, it makes it complex enough that there's no way to visually represent what will happen...
[17:31:19] orogor: weirdo question somone on rc said he had 8 inputs for dvb-t is there some dvb-t card with that much input, or can you tune to any number of channel at the same time with a single card, or did he bought 8 different cards?
[17:31:58] sphery: Oh, and my input preference is because cardinputid 1 is on cardid 1, cardinputid 2 is on cardid 3, cardinputid 3 is on cardid 4, and cardinputid 4 is on cardid 2
[17:32:08] sphery: I.e. I don't have any broken input priorities in place
[17:32:35] wagnerrp: yeah, ive never manually set priorities
[17:32:59] wagnerrp: anytime i want to re-order inputs, i just flush the cards out and re-bind the inputs
[17:33:06] sphery: orogor: digital cards can tune a single frequency. Some places broadcast multiple "logical" channels on a single frequency (i.e. multiplex). The 8 inputs are "virtual inputs" using multirec features of myth.
[17:33:21] sphery: wagnerrp: yep, that's the best way... Just wish we could convince others to do that.
[17:34:07] orogor: cool
[17:34:10] sphery: the annoying part is when they post to the list, "Myth is broken because it didn't record <my favorite show>," and I explain that it's because they used input priorities, but then they leave it that way because they /know/ that's not what caused it and that Myth is /definitely/ broken.

[18:14:14] sidh: so i would like your advices

[18:18:25] wagnerrp: since youre just dealing with a bunch of small text files

[18:27:41] sphery: input priorities are evil
[18:27:56] sphery: if you use then, you should--at minimum--read all of section 12.6 of the HOWTO
[18:28:06] sphery: but really, you should read all of section 12 of the HOWTO
[18:28:19] sphery: after which you'll realize that you don't want to use input priorities :)
[18:29:03] sphery: What you should do is exactly what wagnerrp mentioned--use Delete all capture cards (not "on <hostname>") to remove the capture cards, then re-create the capture cards (any order), then connect inputs in the preferred order of usage
[18:29:16] sphery: basically the capture cards portion of http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/264034#264034
[18:29:51] sphery: if you read section 12, you'll find out that using input priorities, you may be telling MythTV not to record some shows you want to record

[18:48:41] XLV: nighthawk, no.. the 4 or 8 pin aux power connector has nothing to do with the 24pin atx connector being able to break off the last 4 of its pins to work in 20 pin mbs

[18:51:52] nighthawk: when did 24pin come around? 2004?

[21:23:27] AndyCap: thank you.

[21:24:11] kormoc: I can speak maybe a dozen phrases in Farsi, it's actually not that hard to learn
[21:24:18] laga: AndyCap: interesting theory in that link. when i was studying computational linguistics in my old town, they'd give you a bachelor of science. in my current town, you get a bachelor of arts and they *seem* to have more women. ;)
[21:24:57] kormoc: It's also major points when talking with a Persian lady about foods and can talk about those classic favorites she grew up with
[21:24:59] nighthawk: the source that blog cites doesn't mention anything on the topic
[21:25:19] kormoc: doesn't surprise me

[21:52:07] Imaginativeone_: hmm...
[21:52:16] Imaginativeone_: I guess that explains tivo

[21:57:09] AndyCap: Imaginativeone_: in short time, just enough to get you into trouble, same as with linux
[21:57:13] kormoc: because logical english command structure is so much harder then Spanish?
[21:57:38] Imaginativeone_: not necessarily
[21:57:55] Imaginativeone_: you can speak spanish badly and still get your point across
[21:57:58] iamlindoro: It would be fairly easy to gut the settings that nobody shoudl ever touch in myth and re-engineer the menu themes to prevent anyone ever getting to the rest without a keyboard modifier, and write a SQL script to set sane setting defaults
[21:58:14] iamlindoro: I've just never been that motivated
[21:58:47] jduggan: i would most certainly hide all the non-trivial settings away
[21:58:53] Imaginativeone_: I bet the first person with a $200 solution is VERY rich

[21:59:02] AndyCap: Imaginativeone_: tivo?

[22:02:05] AndyCap: which from the specs seemed underpowered.

[23:21:04] iamlindoro: So my answer is "sort of how you would expect it to work"
[23:21:07] orogor: does it use the list which is already downloaded to setup the recording and then setuo a fixed chanel and time for downloads?
[23:21:32] iamlindoro: no, it matches the titles whenever the scheduler runs, based on your listings, and schedules recordings accordingly
[23:21:58] orogor: or does it make up some kind of dynamic filter that keeps working even after new programs are downloaded, channels added and cards deleted ?
[23:22:13] iamlindoro: incorrect terminology, but that's close

[23:39:53] wagnerrp: its an old house, with brick and stucco walls
[23:39:59] wagnerrp: wireless doesnt go very far
[23:40:09] orogor: .. crazy
[23:41:00] iamlindoro: wireless also sucks balls
[23:41:04] orogor: true
[23:41:14] iamlindoro: fine for web browsing, bad for work
[23:41:42] orogor: i guess not _that_ bad specially if he has 3 ap, but sometime it gets annoying
[23:41:56] wagnerrp: wireless is still just as slow
[23:42:06] wagnerrp: three APs just means i get full coverage of the house
[23:42:12] iamlindoro: he has 3 APs because he wants to work in a large geographic space
[23:42:20] iamlindoro: it still sucks in each location
[23:42:21] orogor: even at the office i monitor our server we rarely peak above 2MB when we can go 10GB
[23:42:35] wagnerrp: almost, signal quality is marginal on the back deck
[23:42:48] wagnerrp: and i occasionally drop out sitting in the back room
[23:42:55] orogor: thats with 1500peoples
[23:43:13] orogor: err 500 peoples at the same time
[23:43:16] wagnerrp: i need to run another wire back there so i can put one of the APs there
[23:43:35] orogor: wagnerrp, buy fonera if you need cheapo ap
[23:43:38] kormoc: hear hear
[23:43:38] ** kormoc curses 802.11 **
[23:43:39] orogor: :)
[23:43:53] wagnerrp: i used to have the AP and the fe running on the same cable
[23:43:54] orogor: actually it s very good stuff
[23:43:58] kormoc: fonera? doubt that's a standard brand out here
[23:44:11] wagnerrp: but i wanted the fe running off gigabit, rather than through the 10/100 switch
[23:44:19] orogor: i think they ship you anywhere
[23:44:20] wagnerrp: fonera gives away free APs
[23:44:39] wagnerrp: under the assumption that you register them and make them freely available the world to use
[23:44:46] ** kormoc raises an eyebrow **
[23:44:50] orogor: well not anymore, unless you re at the good spot at the good time
[23:45:10] wagnerrp: they used to run off WRTs and a custom firmware, but i believe they have their own hardware now
[23:45:27] orogor: it s the reverse
[23:45:39] orogor: now you can run wrt on fonera
[23:46:03] wagnerrp: basically, they run their own AP network
[23:46:23] wagnerrp: if you allow people on the network to use your AP for free, you can use any network AP for free as well
[23:46:43] wagnerrp: if you choose to charge for use, you have to pay for time you spend on other's APs
[23:47:05] wagnerrp: anyone not in the network has to pay regardless
[23:47:23] orogor: kormoc, basic fonera is 20€, 50€ and you can download stuff on it
[23:49:51] wagnerrp: youre saying your office runs everyone off wireless?
[23:50:00] orogor: nope
[23:50:06] orogor: we run wired
[23:50:32] orogor: but we re goingto run wireless, we have a 4 years plan to get it wireless
[23:50:41] wagnerrp: what for?
[23:50:52] wagnerrp: wired is SOOO much cheaper

[23:53:08] jduggan: UK hospitals spent fortunes making them all wireless so drs didnt need to carry around paper notes, but some tablet device.... but apparently its never likely to happen, so in some, theyre pay for hotspots, i know BT openzone uses some hospitals
[23:53:10] orogor: there s not going to be tablets cause even the employes would stel them

[23:56:31] orogor: at 5pm the weights where there at 5 am they where stolen already
[23:56:32] AndyCap: kormoc: put the ccounterweight on top of the macbook

[23:56:47] wagnerrp: WTF would someone want with a counterweight
[23:56:47] kormoc: the counterweight was made out of gold?
[23:56:56] wagnerrp: i mean its not like lead is worth much
[23:57:06] wagnerrp: not for the difficulty of transporting it anyway
[23:57:23] orogor: wagnerrp, somone stoled 2 tons of leads in the middle of a 1500 employees hostpital
[23:57:51] wagnerrp: in the middle of the night
[23:58:02] wagnerrp: you have full staffing through the night?
[23:58:11] orogor: humm, without the elevator , i can even understand how they did that
[23:58:27] kormoc: it's a grand worth of lead
[23:58:59] jduggan: alot of risk for a grand
[23:59:07] orogor: counter weight are at 1km of -1 or 100m of -2
[23:59:11] kormoc: forget the risk, a lot of pain
[23:59:28] wagnerrp: 2-tons of lead are not an easy thing to move
[23:59:30] kormoc: 4480 lbs of lead isn't worth a grand for me to even get near
[23:59:43] wagnerrp: i bet the high tension cable was worth more than the counterweight
