[00:00:01] wagnerrp: at least on tsmuxer, i was half-and-half on which track i had to choose
[00:02:43] wagnerrp: i thought matroska supported partial file playback
[00:06:06] momelod: sphery: i still cannot delete the missing recordings
[00:07:12] sphery: momelod: what happens
[00:07:32] sphery: does it work the way the FAQ now describes and then it just comes back after you delete it
[00:07:32] gbee: wasn't that fixed before the release of 0.21?
[00:07:35] momelod: 2009-08–25 20:07:01.671 NVP::OpenFile(): Error, couldn't read file: myth://192.168.100.1:6543/1001_20090201213000.nuv
[00:07:57] sphery: momelod: what happens in mythfrontend
[00:08:05] sphery: what happens on screen?
[00:08:13] gbee: i.e. "File does not exist, are you sure you want to delete?"
[00:08:18] momelod: nothing
[00:08:28] momelod: just returns to the list, and the recording is still there
[00:08:38] sphery: returns to the list from what?
[00:09:02] gbee: momelod: detail step by step what you do and what is displayed
[00:09:04] momelod: after being prompted to confirm the delete action
[00:09:21] sphery: which prompt?
[00:09:37] sphery: The one that says the recording doesn't exist or the one that just asks if you want to delete it?
[00:10:01] iamlindoro (iamlindoro!n=iamlindo@unaffiliated/iamlindoro) has quit ("Coyote finally caught me")
[00:10:16] momelod: 1: highlight recording. 2: hit 'D' for delete. 3. select 'yes, delete it'. 4. back the list of recordings..
[00:10:29] sphery: so it never says the recording isn't there
[00:10:32] sphery: try using the INFO menu
[00:10:34] momelod: thats right
[00:10:39] dansushi (dansushi!n=dan@96.237.108.41) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:10:40] momelod: same with the info menu..
[00:10:40] gbee: check the file permissions, make sure the user you run mythfrontend as has read/write permissions for the recording directory and that file
[00:10:44] sphery: in 0.21-fixes the DELETE based delete might not work
[00:11:18] sphery: momelod: yeah, now that you've done what used to be on the FAQ, a file probably exists (just a 0-byte file), so permissions become important, again
[00:11:46] momelod: right, lemme verify the perms
[00:11:51] sphery: momelod: can you pastebin the output of and ls -al of the directory that contains the recordings?

[00:13:09] momelod: the others are gone

[00:16:20] iamlindoro (iamlindoro!n=iamlindo@unaffiliated/iamlindoro) has quit (Client Quit)
[00:16:22] momelod: that is for the single remaining file that refuses to delete
[00:16:49] andreax (andreax!n=andreaz@p57B94937.dip.t-dialin.net) has quit (Read error: 54 (Connection reset by peer))
[00:17:30] sphery: momelod: I need the directory permissions, so now: ls -ld /var/lib/mythtv/recordings , please (in here is fine for just one line)
[00:18:12] momelod: drwxrwsr-x 3 mythtv mythtv 98304 2009-08–25 20:12 /var/lib/mythtv/recordings
[00:18:15] iamlindoro (iamlindoro!n=iamlindo@c-67-188-139-219.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:18:18] Mode for #mythtv-users by ChanServ!ChanServ@services. : +v iamlindoro
[00:18:52] sphery: momelod: then, how about: rm /var/lib/mythtv/recordings/1001_190000.avi
[00:19:22] sphery: then go through the (new, now correct) instructions in the FAQ: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Frequently_Asked_Q . . . t_on_disk.3F
[00:19:36] sphery: momelod: might need to do: sudo rm /var/lib/mythtv/recordings/1001_190000.avi
[00:19:44] sphery: depending on who runs the command
[00:19:54] momelod: it deleted fine using the mythtv account
[00:20:00] sphery: ok
[00:20:07] jpabq (jpabq!n=jpabq@c-98-230-202-207.hsd1.nm.comcast.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:20:10] sphery: now try deleting the metadata using the procedure in the FAQ
[00:21:56] momelod: says the recording is unavailable, the file cannot be found. I select 'delete' and am prompted with 'are you sure' i select ' yes, delete it' , again am prompted w/ file not found error, are you sure.. i select 'yes, delete it'
[00:22:10] sphery: and then
[00:22:12] momelod: frontend spits out "2009-08–25 20:21:48.348 Error: File 'myth://192.168.100.1:6543/1001_190000.avi' missing" repeatedly over and over
[00:22:13] sphery: *crosses fingers*
[00:22:22] sphery: yeah, ignore the error in the log file
[00:22:29] sphery: that's the preview generator trying to make previews for it
[00:22:30] momelod: and then i am back in the recordings list and that damn listing is still there
[00:22:41] mkrufky (mkrufky!n=Jeff@unaffiliated/mkrufky) has left #mythtv-users ()
[00:23:40] sphery: momelod: how about--since all the others deleted successfully--ignoring that one until 0.22 is released (soon) and you've upgraded. I'm sure it will delete properly on 0.22--0.21-fixes has some issues with that, still.
[00:24:03] sphery: (caused, in this case, by the preview generator changing the status, so we don't treat it as an unavailable recording)
[00:24:30] sphery: we're hoping for 0.22 in Oct, so you'd only have to ignore it for about 2 mos at most :)
[00:25:03] momelod: kewl, no problem
[00:25:13] momelod: im glad i got rid of most of them
[00:27:10] momelod: any other new features coming up in 0.22
[00:27:18] sphery: lots
[00:27:23] iamlindoro: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Release_Notes_-_0.22
[00:28:53] sphery: some of the most visible changes in the UI (which now allows a /lot/ more freedom for themers). See http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MythUI_Demo_Theme and http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MythUI_XML_Examples and http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Theme_Terra and http://www.fecitfacta.com/Graphite/Home.html for examples
[00:29:03] iamlindoro: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MythVideo_.22_Transition_Guide
[00:29:12] sphery: and at the last one (Graphite), check out the gallery/videos for MythVideo changes
[00:29:15] sphery: which are also quite impressive
[00:29:16] iamlindoro: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MythVideo_File_Parsing
[00:29:44] momelod: wow, loving the new ui
[00:31:08] sphery: yeah, it's impressive
[00:31:47] sphery: we still need themes, so if you have artistic talent, that's a great place to begin contributing (and you can wait until 0.22 is out and start on it then)
[00:32:04] sphery: right now Terra and Graphite are really the only 2 themes we have
[00:32:24] sphery: other than some pale shadows of the "old" legacy themes
[00:32:26] momelod: i did see something on the wish-list and i dont see it listed in the updates.. i know its a slim chance but ill ask anywayz :) ..will it be possible in 0.22 to tag videos as watched
[00:32:30] dashcloud: what can I expect from using the channel scanner for my clearqam channels? (either the .21-fixes or the .22 one)
[00:32:41] Defense|Twin (Defense|Twin!n=jepz@d122054.adsl.hansenet.de) has quit (Remote closed the connection)
[00:32:50] sphery: momelod: don't know... I know there was talk of that, but don't know if it went in
[00:32:51] iamlindoro: momelod, Already done, I added that 2–3 weeks ago
[00:33:05] sphery: Oh, wait... I think it might have gone in 2–3 weeks ago.
[00:33:09] sphery: :)
[00:33:21] momelod: iamlindoro: sweet! is that specific to mythvideo? where can i read about it
[00:33:23] iamlindoro: The reason it's not on the feature request list is because I've been clearing them out as I've done them ;)
[00:33:35] momelod: im glad i asked then :)
[00:33:41] iamlindoro: momelod, Erm... in the code, I guess... or in the commit log
[00:33:52] momelod: im almost tempted to install the svn release
[00:33:58] iamlindoro: http://cvs.mythtv.org/trac/changeset/21217
[00:34:12] sphery: well, now is the time when we're hoping to get testers
[00:34:15] momelod: sphery: unfortunately i have no artistic talent what so ever.
[00:34:22] sphery: but note that figuring it out will be basically up to the testers
[00:34:28] sphery: and there's a /lot/ that's different
[00:34:55] sphery: If I can tell you one thing before upgrading, it's do a backup /before/ you start and don't lose that backup: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Database_Backup_and_Restore
[00:35:07] momelod: :)
[00:35:13] momelod: words of wisdom
[00:35:27] sphery: you can only go backwards with a backup (from trunk to 0.21-fixes can only be done with a backup)
[00:35:47] sphery: and if you have any corruption of the data in your DB, there's a good chance the upgrade to trunk will fail
[00:36:01] sphery: so you need a backup so you don't lose anything

[03:20:44] mkrufky: it has three

[03:25:29] mkrufky: heh
[03:30:31] mkrufky: well, i re-verified all the connections ...... if i have the ion box plugged direct to the tv, audio works fine, but if it goes thru the receiver, no audio..... but if i plug my cable STB into that same HDMI input, i get audio just fine
[03:30:48] wagnerrp: love them standards!
[03:31:01] mkrufky: clearly the software is set up properly, and the receiver is set up properly

[03:39:15] mkrufky: im sure i can fix the passthru afterwards, but the fact that my receiver is killing the audio over hdmi is annoying

[03:40:04] sphery: what happens if you connect it to the receiver and start playback and do: iecset audio on
[03:42:57] mkrufky: sphery: nothing happens
[03:43:04] mkrufky: well, i can show u output, hang on
[03:43:07] sphery: just wondered...
[03:43:13] sphery: that's ok
[03:43:19] sphery: was wondering about audible output
[03:43:22] mkrufky: ok
[03:43:59] sphery: we don't send IEC958 status bits before the stream, so I wondered if the receiver may just be assuming it's non-audio
[03:44:00] mkrufky: id like to believe that something can be done, but considering that it works when connected directly to the tv, and that the receiver is set up correctly, it seems like im just screwed
[03:44:19] mkrufky: ah
[03:44:45] mkrufky: well, right this moment i am playing an mkv via mplayer using -ao alsa:device=plughw=0.3
[03:44:55] mkrufky: and that works also, only when connected directly to the tv
[03:45:03] sphery: the test we did didn't prove it (some receivers won't allow a change without closing/restarting stream), but if you want to try again, this time doing iecset audio on before starting playback, that will be a good indication it's not that
[03:45:26] mkrufky: ok, well it so happens that i did exactly that after it failed the first time
[03:45:31] mkrufky: :-/
[03:46:46] mkrufky: i *could* use the spdif output for the time being... but i actually would have preferred to use that input on the receiver for something else .... and of course id prefer to just run the single HDMI cable rather than two

[04:24:13] darkdrgn2k: hey guys
[04:24:22] darkdrgn2k: having a bit of trouble with backend crashing
[04:24:25] darkdrgn2k: http://www.pastebin.ca/1542778 <- backend log
[04:25:05] darkdrgn2k: dmesg after crash <- http://www.pastebin.ca/1542779
[04:25:10] wagnerrp: are you running old ivtv drivers?
[04:25:23] iamlindoro: wagnerrp, What would lead you to such a wild assumption?  ;)
[04:25:40] darkdrgn2k: ivtv: Start initialization, version 1.4.1
[04:25:51] darkdrgn2k: as far as i can tell the last stable is 1.4
[04:25:55] darkdrgn2k: so i think its latest..
[04:26:20] Dagmar: You compiled them yourself?
[04:26:24] wagnerrp: technically, 1.4 isnt really a version at all
[04:26:25] darkdrgn2k: no
[04:26:34] wagnerrp: from that point and on, they got consumed by the kernel
[04:26:35] darkdrgn2k: came with distro
[04:26:36] Dagmar: Good, because you should be using the ones that came with your kernel.
[04:26:50] wagnerrp: 1.3 was the last version that actually existed partially outside the kernel
[04:27:12] wagnerrp: 1.4 and on is just a set of tools, no drivers
[04:27:18] darkdrgn2k: well
[04:27:24] darkdrgn2k: dmesg returns 1.4.1 when kernel is loeaded
[04:27:31] darkdrgn2k: when module is loaded
[04:27:38] darkdrgn2k: http://www.pastebin.ca/1542784
[04:27:59] wagnerrp: of course i dont know why the backend would be complaining about ivtv versions
[04:28:22] wagnerrp: unless that is just a generic warning if it starts capturing VBI data
[04:28:36] darkdrgn2k: ive seen that warning always
[04:28:43] darkdrgn2k: and im not using pvr 250 or 350
[04:28:48] darkdrgn2k: got a PVR 150 and HVR 1600
[04:32:54] darkdrgn2k: any idea
[04:32:55] darkdrgn2k: s
[04:33:12] darkdrgn2k: cat /dev/video1 > testing.mpg seems to work fine
[04:33:12] wagnerrp: i dont know what this /dev/pvr150 is
[04:33:16] darkdrgn2k: oo
[04:33:19] darkdrgn2k: just a rule
[04:33:35] wagnerrp: i surely dont have one of those
[04:33:39] darkdrgn2k: KERNEL=="video[0–1]", SYSFS{vendor}=="0x4444", SYSFS{device}=="0x0016", SYMLINK+="pvr150"
[04:33:39] darkdrgn2k: KERNEL=="video[0–1]", SYSFS{vendor}=="0x14f1", SYSFS{device}=="0x5b7a", SYMLINK+="hvr1600"
[04:33:53] darkdrgn2k: udev rules :)
[04:34:03] wagnerrp: ah, so thats something you put in to keep them separate
[04:34:10] darkdrgn2k: yep
[04:34:22] darkdrgn2k: cause my video[0–1] kept jumpint around
[04:34:27] wagnerrp: right
[04:35:10] darkdrgn2k: wow.. intersting..
[04:35:21] darkdrgn2k: cat /dev/pvr150 > testing.mpg DOESNT work
[04:35:38] clever: the pvr150 has several video device nodes
[04:35:44] darkdrgn2k: yes
[04:36:00] clever: only one outputs mpeg
[04:36:12] darkdrgn2k: should be /dev/video0
[04:36:20] darkdrgn2k: or 1
[04:36:27] clever: 0 i beleive
[04:36:37] darkdrgn2k: clever: depends on which device it is..
[04:36:41] wagnerrp: 0 for the first device, 1 for the second device, etc...
[04:36:52] darkdrgn2k: and first is a very loose term...
[04:37:04] darkdrgn2k: first device the kernel finds :-P which can change durring a boot
[04:37:13] clever: not exactly
[04:37:24] clever: within 1 psysical card, the driver registers 3 device nodes
[04:37:31] clever: and it does those 3 in the same order every time
[04:37:45] darkdrgn2k: clever: but it does 0 16 and 32 (i think)
[04:37:50] clever: yeah
[04:37:53] darkdrgn2k: clever: with 2 cards it does 0 and 1
[04:38:00] darkdrgn2k: 0/1 outputs mpeg
[04:38:02] clever: so 0 1 and 3 would be the 'first' for 3 seperate cards
[04:38:12] darkdrgn2k: aa yes i see what you mean
[04:38:22] darkdrgn2k: unfortunatly you cant predect the 3 sperate cards
[04:38:48] clever: enless you use udev and the pciid to force them to certain names or symlinks
[04:39:15] darkdrgn2k: <darkdrgn2k> KERNEL=="video[0–1]", SYSFS{vendor}=="0x4444", SYSFS{device}=="0x0016", SYMLINK+="pvr150"
[04:39:16] darkdrgn2k: <darkdrgn2k> KERNEL=="video[0–1]", SYSFS{vendor}=="0x14f1", SYSFS{device}=="0x5b7a", SYMLINK+="hvr1600"
[04:39:28] clever: yep
[04:39:36] darkdrgn2k: but problem remains
[04:39:39] darkdrgn2k: why does my dma timeout

[04:40:25] clever: that may be a link to the framegrabber interface

[04:59:28] wagnerrp: i see one coming from the keyboard
[04:59:41] wagnerrp: and i see one coming from the in-desk power/network box
[05:00:34] wagnerrp: im not kidding, that head frightens me
[05:02:18] darkdrgn2k: wagnerrp: look in front of the keyboard lower portion of it
[05:02:30] darkdrgn2k: by the ctrl.. thrs a cable going off the desk..

[05:03:30] darkdrgn2k: ok maybe my eyes are bad
[05:03:34] darkdrgn2k: but i dont see teh segment continue
[05:03:39] darkdrgn2k: but it could jsut be me.. sorry
[05:04:06] wagnerrp: you follow it under the keyboard cable (you might mistake it as the shadow of the cable)
[05:04:18] wagnerrp: through the hole in the monitor stand, and to the inside corner of the desk
[05:04:53] wagnerrp: you can see a similar split below the banner

[06:06:23] iamlindoro: Bahhhh
[06:06:37] iamlindoro: FCC gave the cable companies the waiver to turn on encryption on DTAs
[06:06:56] iamlindoro: adios, unencrypted QAM
[06:06:58] wagnerrp: its not that theres a lot of code i HAD to write
[06:07:17] wagnerrp: more that theres a lot of code im reading through and thinking... 'why the hell did i do it that way'
[06:08:49] wagnerrp: six months of good times

[06:16:49] iamlindoro: for reference
[06:17:14] iamlindoro: my 3x QAM tuners are going to become relatively worthless
[06:17:31] kormoc: ouch
[06:17:51] wagnerrp: i thought you already had a bunch of QAM channels, even before the DTAs
[06:18:11] wagnerrp: or do you think theyre going to be shutting down all but the broadcast channels now?
[06:18:22] iamlindoro: Yes
[06:18:31] iamlindoro: I would love to be mistaken :)
[06:18:40] sphery: wow
[06:19:08] ** iamlindoro suspects lots of people will be coming over to sphery's way of thinking soon **
[06:19:18] AndyCap: haha, "Security". yeees, wouldn't want insecurity now would we.
[06:19:19] sphery: OTA ftw!
[06:19:41] sphery: if you say "security", then users will like it
[06:20:08] wagnerrp: i wonder how many users discovered that they could just use those channels directly on their TV, without needing that box
[06:21:28] wagnerrp: i guess that means the scte channel data will get encrypted as well
[06:21:46] sphery: now if only they would allow CE companies to make displays without integrated tuners, etc.
[06:22:08] wagnerrp: sphery: eh?
[06:22:32] sphery: I want to be able to buy monitors instead of TV's
[06:22:42] sphery: since the integrated tuners and decoders are completely useless to me
[06:22:43] Essobi: me too
[06:22:43] wagnerrp: you can... or at least you used to
[06:22:51] AndyCap: In June 2009, Evolution obtained a three-year waiver to couple its DTAs with an integrated conditional access system from Conax AS
[06:23:00] AndyCap: hmm, at least they make CAM's available
[06:23:09] wagnerrp: weve got an old 42" Phillips plasma monitor at work
[06:23:17] wagnerrp: multiple video inputs, no tuner
[06:23:38] AndyCap: of course monitors being for the "pro" segment probably cost more. :)
[06:23:43] sphery: right
[06:23:44] Essobi: I just saw some 42s on newegg..
[06:24:16] sphery: and I have a 67" TV, and haven't seen any monitors in that range
[06:24:33] Essobi: o_O
[06:24:36] sphery: and generally don't see monitors with "non-computer-monitor" tech's like DLP or whatever
[06:24:48] Essobi: I want one of those 120" dlp projectors.... Mmmm.
[06:24:53] AndyCap: then again, if it's NDS Videoguard or Motorola Mediacipher you're screwed. :)
[06:24:59] sphery: and the whole point is the cost savings that are possible, which you don't get if you buy in the commercial range
[06:25:03] wagnerrp: http://www.samsung.com/he/products/monitor/la . . . ay/index.asp
[06:26:21] sphery: resolutions in the 1024x768 or 1366x768 range
[06:26:26] wagnerrp: they all seem to be poor resolutions
[06:26:27] wagnerrp: yeah
[06:26:44] sphery: yeah

[06:32:58] wagnerrp: im surprised theres not more of a market for these
[06:33:12] wagnerrp: considering most people with a large TV like that probably arent using the tuners
[06:33:28] sphery: right
[06:33:49] sphery: The FCC basically said that anything sold as a "TV" has to have an integrated digital off-air tuner
[06:35:11] wagnerrp: its not like a tuner is very expensive
[06:35:25] sphery: yeah, they're coming down
[06:35:28] wagnerrp: and you still have to include all the video processing hardware if for a monitor
[06:35:30] sphery: but tuner means integrated decoder
[06:35:45] sphery: and the decoder is still not dirt cheap (like analog tuners)
[06:35:51] wagnerrp: and how much does that cost?
[06:36:00] wagnerrp: a tuner and decoder chip could probably be had for $50
[06:36:21] wagnerrp: considering you can buy an nvidia card with one on newegg for $20
[06:36:23] kormoc: $50 for a single part is epic costly for mass fabbed parts
[06:36:40] sphery: when I got my TV in 2006, it was estimated to be around over a couple hundred dollars
[06:37:41] wagnerrp: i mean they sell the DTV boxes for $40-$50
[06:38:00] wagnerrp: and thats a tuner, decoder, scaler, and modulator
[06:38:01] sphery: yeah, that's because a certain president said they would :)

[13:31:34] middy: oh ok, just wondering lol- sorry, just another question if someone can help-
[13:31:58] middy: would changing the subtitle like that (in recording options) have an effect on duplicate rules? There was a problem with my guide data, where a few episodes where "skipped" (i.e. episodes 1–3 aired with subtitle and descriptions of shows 3–6, and the newer episodes with the same subs/descriptions). I changed the subtitle of the recorded shows, and set the duplicate check method to "subtitle" in mythweb, but the new episodes still show
[13:31:59] middy: duplicates. Any advice would be appreciated, sorry for the long post there...

[13:32:49] juski: I guess changing the title/subtitle (and even the description) would have a bearing on duplicate finding
[13:33:23] juski: any discrepancy between the stuff you've chosen as a rule for finding duplicates results in extra recordings :)

[13:48:32] juski: if you want them to re-record, yeah
[13:49:08] middy: i.e. does it mark it in the database as soon as the guide data is updated, but not when changed manually?
[13:50:07] juski: I think it just marks the scheduler entry so when the scheduler next runs it takes notice of it

[16:00:05] CoreDump|home: that I do not know
[16:00:54] iamlindoro: Should include a detailed description of hot to reproduce, and a backtrace according to the documentation
[16:01:04] iamlindoro: (which presumes having built myth w/ debug symboles)
[16:01:07] iamlindoro: symbols
[16:01:10] Gav8in: right, okie dokie.
[16:01:24] iamlindoro: http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-22.html#ss22.2
[16:01:29] Gav8in: i can't reproduce any of them, though I'll rebuild with debug symbols.
[16:01:31] iamlindoro: (for the gdbcommands we're looking for)
[16:01:31] Gav8in: yeah, i read that.
[16:02:57] Gav8in: would it be useful to add a SEGV handler that dumped the stack (albiet without function parameters), and then a reporting tool that massaged that into line numbers in the source?
[16:03:20] Dibblah: Not without symbols, no.
[16:03:21] laga: function parameters surely would be useful?
[16:03:42] Dibblah: However, the 'without symbols' builds seem rather pointless to me.
[16:03:52] Gav8in: yeah, but it's really easy in libc to get the PC locations, and then of course in a symbol-enabled object you can turn those into line numbers easily
[16:04:02] Gav8in: saves the user running gdb.
[16:04:39] Dibblah: ... Which AFAIK differ in a profile build.
[16:04:47] Dibblah: So there's nothing to look them up against.
[16:05:00] Gav8in: the source code line numbers change?
[16:05:04] Dibblah: No.
[16:05:04] ** Gav8in confused. **
[16:05:18] Dibblah: The addresses in the executable image in memory change.
[16:05:37] Gav8in: sure, of course. libc's output of the pc in a backtrace is of course relative to relocatin addresses!
[16:05:52] Gav8in: eg: ./backtrace-out(dummy_function+0x9) [0x4008dc]
[16:06:04] Dibblah: However, I generally end up suggesting that everyone builds with profile.
[16:06:25] Gav8in: by with profile, you mean gprof ?
[16:06:34] Dibblah: No, I mean the build type.
[16:07:01] Dibblah: Which ends up as a version with optimisations and symbols.

[16:48:13] J-e-f-f-A: iamlindoro: wagnerrp  – well, 3 3' cables from monoprice, shipped would be $7.33... So it's about $10 more for shorter cables... I dunno, I know it's more, but I'm leaning towards the shorter cables... ;-)

[18:00:16] anykey_: Why would I get stuttering with VDPAU on BBC HD with a GeForce 9400GT? I've already enabled OpenGL VSync and Extra audio buffering...
[18:01:20] iamlindoro: deinterlacer set too high, or cpu throttling the clock speed too far back
[18:02:05] anykey_: cpu throttling is disabled and I can even set the deinterlacer to none and the stuttering is still there (on a 720p channel)
[18:02:19] juski: I thought BBCHD was 1080i
[18:02:23] iamlindoro: BBC HD shouldn't be 720p...
[18:02:57] iamlindoro: Also possible you have video set as timebase or something like that
[18:03:00] anykey_: yeah, BBC HD is 1080i, my point was that even with no deinterlacer (not needed on a 720p channel, not BBC HD) the stuttering still exists
[18:03:07] juski: they've recently halved their bitrate, so maybe they've messed with other encoding parameters

[21:52:10] kormoc: wagnerrp, nope, sadly :(
[21:52:13] mkrufky: iamlindoro: yeah so i retract what i said yesterday .... i totally want this to work so i am down to upgrade to 0.22 immediately once the distros have it ........ and if i hit bugs then i guess ill just have to deal with them
[21:53:12] iamlindoro: mkrufky: IMO people will run into some bugs, but more difficulty in learning all the (many) differences
[21:53:13] mkrufky: iamlindoro: did you see what happened to me when i got home with it yesterday? Audio over HDMI works when connected direct to a television, but the moment i put my Yamaha receiver in the middle i lose audio :-(
[21:53:34] iamlindoro: mkrufky: didn't see... weird... are you trying to pass through, or decode w/ the receiver?
[21:53:44] mkrufky: i had to use optical for autio :-(
[21:53:50] mkrufky: decode using the receiver
[21:54:19] mkrufky: and to rule out the receiver being dumb, i put my cable STB in the same HDMI jack and it worked fine
[21:54:26] iamlindoro: weird
[21:55:15] iamlindoro: TBH I don't use a ton of HDMI at home-- DVI on all displays (including the 1080p projector)

[21:57:17] cityLights: sphery: I use gentoo now
[21:57:18] gbee: mkrufky: not really a subject I'm strong on, but I assume the receiver supports 44Khz audio? Since as far as I know that's all the current drivers/hardware allow, 48Khz has to be resampled or something
[21:57:28] mkrufky: so linux kinda sucks on this right now ... win7 + mythtvplayer is OK
[21:57:42] mkrufky: gbee: receiver supports it, yes
[21:58:22] cityLights: sphery: can I ask how does the video playing thread know what is the sound delay?
[21:58:24] gbee: :/
[21:58:29] iamlindoro: mkrufky: as long as you are using the plughw setting I told you about, you should be resampling as necessary
[21:58:43] cityLights: I mean you initiate two diffrent streams – right?
[21:59:36] gbee: iamlindoro: would work with his TV if he wasn't resampling, hence why I asked if the receiver supported 44Khz vs 48Khz
[22:00:10] sphery: gbee: they do 44.1kHz, but not 48kHz? Seems backwards.
[22:00:40] iamlindoro: gbee: yeah, just mentioning to him which setting will determine resampling vs. non

[22:01:33] gbee: sphery: err, might have it back to front
[22:02:03] gbee: yeah I do, sorry
[22:02:32] gbee: 44.1kHz needs resampling to 48kHz
[22:02:54] sphery: just wondered... I thought it was weird that they'd do it differently from basically every other "software" sound card out there
[22:02:56] gbee: so receiver needs to support 48kHz
[22:03:39] sphery: mkrufky: and might want to try: iecset rate 48000
[22:04:21] gbee: HDMI audio doesn't actually require it as far as I know, it's a limitation of either the driver or the intel audio chipset, can't remember which
[22:05:21] gbee: liked I said, yet another subject on which I'm hardly qualified to talk but feel to the need to anyway
[22:05:51] sphery: yeah, the AC'97 and HDA specs skimp on a lot of the support

[22:29:43] todd_dsm: will do-

[22:30:49] sphery: which gbee was just talking about changing only minutes before you arrived :)
[22:30:55] sphery: changing = updating
[22:31:29] sphery: todd_dsm: note, also, that MythTV is not necessarily a low-cost DVR solution
[22:31:31] AndyCap: on a related note, configuring mediaportal was a lot crappier than configuring mythtv. :)
[22:31:57] todd_dsm: sphery: I'm not necessarily a low-cost technician :)
[22:32:21] sphery: just wanted to make sure you knew where it fits in
[22:32:21] todd_dsm: I just don't know ANYTHING about this though
[22:32:29] todd_dsm: roger that
[22:32:30] sphery: IMHO, MythTV is a high-end luxury DVR solution
[22:32:45] ** mkrufky agrees **
[22:33:05] mkrufky: especially if you consider my setup ... single backend server with 9TB+ , 5 tuners
[22:33:12] sphery: and I've spent a /lot/ more on my system than I would ever have spent on other solutions, like TiVo or Windows MCE or, especially, cable-/satellite-company-provided DVR's
[22:33:16] mkrufky: six frontends
[22:33:24] sphery: nice
[22:33:33] todd_dsm: jeeeeeze, that might be a little more entertainment than I need, lol
[22:33:46] AndyCap: todd_dsm: what sources do you have?
[22:33:57] todd_dsm: sources?
[22:34:05] CoreDump|home: only 5 tuners on that beast?
[22:34:05] sphery: I have 2 backends with 6.5TB of storage and 4 HDTV tuners and 1 frontend
[22:34:06] AndyCap: todd_dsm: for TV signal.
[22:34:24] sphery: yeah, good point, AndyCap
[22:34:28] AndyCap: todd_dsm: if you can't get any good unencrypted tv mythtv isn't going to be any fun
[22:34:28] sphery: MythTV doesn't do encrypted
[22:34:36] mkrufky: CoreDump|home: its hard to ever use more than two at a time, now with "multirec"
[22:35:01] mkrufky: anyway, i have to jet ... i'll be back in a few hours with results of the hdmi audio stuff
[22:35:01] todd_dsm: sattlelite, as far as I know, could be cable; I'll just say 1 source for now; plus the ability to rip and archive dvd/blueray
[22:35:04] laga: sphery: it does, here ;)
[22:35:05] sphery: mkrufky: must be cable, then? (As multirec is useless for me with US OTA.)
[22:35:09] mkrufky: thanks for the advice, guys
[22:35:19] AndyCap: todd_dsm: what satellite provider?
[22:35:19] mkrufky: multirec is *not* useless for OTA
[22:35:34] mkrufky: there should be at least 2 programs per mux
[22:35:40] wagnerrp: todd_dsm: mythtv can do dvd
[22:35:42] todd_dsm: I'm not sure, I'm logging that as a question to him in an email right now.
[22:35:46] AndyCap: mkrufky: tested ac3/dts passthrough on hdmi btw?
[22:35:49] wagnerrp: but bluray doesnt work on linux
[22:35:49] mkrufky: but if you try a SD program, you might have 6–12 programs per mux
[22:36:08] mkrufky: AndyCap: yes, works beautifully, provided im connected directly to the television
[22:36:14] sphery: laga: OK, I stand corrected... MythTV does not do encrypted unless you have a hardware decryption mechanism (which you won't find in the US--save an STB and analog output)
[22:36:19] wagnerrp: if you want to rip bluray, you are basically limited to AnyDVD HD on windows (or a VM)
[22:36:24] AndyCap: mkrufky: hehe. was thinking to your amp. :P
[22:36:39] mkrufky: it only works to my receiver over optical
[22:36:57] sphery: mkrufky: it's useless for me because there's only 1 channel on each of the multiplexes I get from which I would ever record.
[22:37:08] AndyCap: mkrufky: ok.
[22:37:36] mkrufky: sphery: oh... i never said the content was worth recording ;-)
[22:38:04] todd_dsm: so is the hardware contingent on the service provider?
[22:38:17] mkrufky: i mean... i can record 30+ shows simultaneously .... if you like the low-res / infomercial / church bs kinda stuff
[22:38:31] AndyCap: todd_dsm: yes.
[22:38:48] todd_dsm: I'll get the answers then.
[22:39:00] sphery: (technically, I record from WMFE and WMFE-En (as in Encore), where Encore is repeats of the stuff shown in primetime on WMFE, but as WMFE-EN is shut down during primetime and I don't record much non-primetime PBS, I've never actually seen a case where I would have used multirec)
[22:39:03] AndyCap: todd_dsm: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Recording_Digital_Cable
[22:39:12] sphery: but on all other muxes, I only record a single channel
[22:41:59] sphery: todd_dsm: (If not US, ignore the rest...) For satellite in the US, the only approach is analog capture. You can use something like the Hauppauge PVR-150 or PVR-500 or HVR-1600 for standard-def or the Hauppauge HD-PVR for high-def analog capture. Note, also, that the digital side of the HVR-1600 would be useless for satellite, but you could hook it to an antenna and record over-the-air HDTV with it.
[22:42:22] todd_dsm: no, we're in the US; that's our directive
[22:42:38] sphery: so that would mean analog capture
[22:42:57] sphery: note, though, that analog capture of HDTV content with the HD-PVR is still /very/ good quality.
[22:42:58] todd_dsm: HD comes through in analog?
[22:43:24] sphery: and HD-PVR will be supported in the next version of MythTV (0.22, which should be out within a couple of months)
[22:43:27] todd_dsm: HD just sounds so 'digital'
[22:43:31] sphery: No, it comes through in /encrypted/ digital
[22:43:45] sphery: so you have to have a sat-co-provided set-top-box to decrypt
[22:44:07] sphery: i.e. satellite -> dish -> STB ->(via Component output) HD-PVR
[22:44:48] todd_dsm: what HW do you like for the sat-co-provided set-top-box?
[22:44:49] sphery: it's just that no sat-co DVRs available in the US will give you digital output you can use with MythTV
[22:45:03] AndyCap: ideally you could have a satellite tuner card with CI slot and a CA-module but you don't get that with the us providers.
[22:45:09] sphery: Basically, it's the DISH or DirecTV receivers
[22:45:16] todd_dsm: I can buy on the internet: internationally.
[22:46:01] sphery: it's not a matter of "local availability". It's a matter of DISH network does not allow it, so you can't find any hardware that will decrypt it
[22:46:01] AndyCap: todd_dsm: hehe, don't think many international sat providers are visible over your horizon. :P
[22:46:31] todd_dsm: lol; sorry, like I said, I don't know anything about this.
[22:46:37] sphery: so to get hardware, you'd get hardware that works with some (non-US) provider--whose satellites, as AndyCap mentions, you can't see
[22:47:17] sphery: basically, the problem is the sat-co policies--they've decided not to allow customers direct access to the unencrypted content
[22:47:27] sphery: mainly because of pressure from content owners
[22:47:31] todd_dsm: got it, sounds like I need to wait and see who their provider is before going further.
[22:47:34] mkrufky: ok, see y'all in a lil while
[22:47:40] mkrufky (mkrufky!n=Jeff@unaffiliated/mkrufky) has left #mythtv-users ()
[22:48:10] sphery: Basically, todd_dsm , analog capture through S-Video (PVR-150/500 or HVR-1600) or Component (HD-PVR, allowing high-def) are your options
[22:48:32] sphery: HD-PVR requires either current trunk MythTV or 0.22-fixes, when released (we hope in Oct)
[22:49:04] todd_dsm: I guess what I'm asking is, based on your experience, forget about cost, which unit would you prefer?

[22:50:09] wagnerrp: recording takes very little power (with proper hardware)
[22:50:20] todd_dsm: PVR-150/500 or HVR-1600 ?
[22:50:25] wagnerrp: so your backend is going to depend on how quickly you want to run post processing
[22:50:35] wagnerrp: meaning transcoding, and commflagging
[22:50:42] sphery: For dish/directv receivers, any will be equally useful, though getting a non-DVR unit makes the most sense for power consumption (since you're doing an external DVR)
[22:50:45] wagnerrp: digital tuners, just get something on the linuxtv.org list
[22:50:49] AndyCap: todd_dsm: pvr-150/500 are out of production iirc.

[22:51:59] todd_dsm: roger that-
[22:52:13] sphery: todd_dsm: and the HVR-1600 has the advantage of supporting digital capture of OTA signals (including HDTV) in addition to allowing recording of standard-def analog output from a satellite box
[22:52:18] iamlindoro: gbee, I would like to see information on how to submit samples and encouraging tickets opened against the player on the site somewhere... preferably not buried in the documentation
[22:52:20] wagnerrp: and considering you want to play bluray, that means a quad-core, a high end dual-core, or something capable of using VDPAU
[22:52:29] gbee: assume HD, since he mentioned bluray and that narrows it down
[22:52:37] todd_dsm: I'm looking at the WinTV-HVR-1600 right now and it's only $119. I wouldn't call that a big deal at all.

[22:57:53] wagnerrp: there were three shows i was recording over broadcast, plus another two on cable
[22:58:46] CoreDump|home: fwiw, that was today: http://hentges.net/tmp/screenshots/mhcln05/mythtv-recordings.png
[22:58:52] sphery: todd_dsm: note, also, that you'll need a separate STB for each channel you want to record simultaneously
[22:58:55] CoreDump|home: 5 tuners in use...
[22:59:34] AndyCap: ah, germany, home of unencrypted satellite. :>
[22:59:37] sphery: todd_dsm: i.e. if he wants to be able to record 2 channels, he'll need 2 STB's, for 3 channels, 3 STB's...
[22:59:37] todd_dsm: sphery: STB = set top box = TV  ?
[22:59:48] wagnerrp: todd_dsm: yes, set top box
[22:59:49] sphery: STB = set top box = satellite receiver
[22:59:52] CoreDump|home: AndyCap: DVB-T
[22:59:57] wagnerrp: you need an STB to access any encrypted station
[22:59:57] AndyCap: CoreDump|home: that too
[22:59:58] gbee: sphery: assuming capturing encrypted content, rather than FTA ATSC, DVB etc
[23:00:09] wagnerrp: and each STB will only access one station
[23:00:13] todd_dsm: he said he's got 3 STB in his home
[23:00:15] sphery: right, he's doing US satellite = encrypted

[23:00:45] AndyCap: todd_dsm: oh, and you need a means of changing the channel
[23:00:56] AndyCap: is irblaster the only way with dish?
[23:01:15] sphery: it was... I heard rumors that they were doing something to work better with the new thing they bought
[23:01:22] sphery: (slingbox or something?)
[23:01:28] todd_dsm: yes, what does the community like for a multi-room remote control? or does it work some other way?
[23:01:31] sphery: haven't heard if it's around
[23:01:43] AndyCap: todd_dsm: a server with three capture cards (hd-pvr), irblasters and mythtv then. :P
[23:01:50] todd_dsm: sphery: now I understand STB, thank you
[23:02:03] AndyCap: stuff it in a room with all the stb's.
[23:02:07] sphery: yeah, I should have done that first... :)

[23:33:35] heyheyhey: iamlindoro on a dct2224?
