[00:43:11] MartinJT: hmmm
[00:43:55] wagnerrp: 0.22 underwent a very significant rewrite, such that themes could be far more capable

[00:53:29] iamlindoro: It's not as simple as changing number fo columns/rows
[00:53:33] iamlindoro: you need to rewrite the buttlist

[01:14:57] neon_: hello, i have an aver media volar max hybrid usb tuner card, it has linux drivers ant it is install however i can't get mythtv to work, it sees it but i'm just clueless any suggestion on where i can go to read to mak eit work thx
[01:16:10] wagnerrp: does the card work in linux?
[01:16:21] wagnerrp: (is there a /dev/video0 and/or /dev/dvb/adapter0)
[01:17:03] neon_: it has linux drivers and i can get mplayer thru some commads to display the picture and sound just have a hard time switching chaneels that way
[01:17:27] neon_: /dev/dvb/adapter0
[01:18:02] wagnerrp: then just add the card as a 'dvb tuner' in mythtv, and follow the rest of the steps as normal
[01:18:44] neon_: there now will try and see what happens thx
[01:19:14] wagnerrp: mythtv should enumerate and list all detected dvb cards when you try to add it

[01:23:32] brad2: hey wagnerr, if i have a bunch of extra storage on another mythfrontend box, what is the best way to add it, so the backend can use it?
[01:23:36] brad2: nfs mount? smb mount?
[01:24:22] wagnerrp: move said storage onto the machine with the tuners
[01:24:49] wagnerrp: ideally, you dont want a hard drive in a frontend-only box
[01:25:06] brad2: that's what i figured
[01:25:18] brad2: now i was also thinking of adding a tuner to that box as well, and adding a slave backend
[01:25:34] brad2: does that change the equation? Or ideally, i want everything storage tuners, etc all on one box

[01:26:09] wagnerrp: generally, you still want to record to the local hard drives if possible
[01:26:51] wagnerrp: also, its best to have recordings not be in the same directory on different machines
[01:27:11] wagnerrp: for instance, store to /media/mythbe1/recordings on one, /media/mythbe2/recordings on the other
[01:27:27] brad2: ahh i see
[01:27:38] wagnerrp: also makes it easier if you do want to share storage across NFS
[01:28:03] brad2: so it is possible to have the multiple backends (one master, one slave) that record to their own local drives
[01:28:08] brad2: would they have seperate storage groups?
[01:28:31] wagnerrp: give them each their own storage group
[01:28:41] wagnerrp: SGs are defined on a per-machine basis
[01:28:53] wagnerrp: and fall back to the MBE's definition in the event none is defined for that name
[01:29:04] brad2: got it, thanks

[01:30:20] brad2: one last question, if i ended up putting 2 hd-pvrs on one comp, that shouldn't cause any problems? As they are doing all the encoding in the box, and just shipping it to the comp across usb? Or would 2 simultaneous usb streams cause problems?
[01:32:45] wagnerrp: they peak out at about 1.6MB/s, any USB2.0 controller should manage that without trouble
[01:34:39] brad2: great
[01:37:27] MartinJT: what's the best, easiest and quickest way to test changes to a theme?
[01:39:45] iamlindoro: by viewing the screen upon which you have made changes ;)
[01:40:53] MartinJT: i was meaning how to view the changes... i.e. dropping out of myth then going back in? or just out of the screen...

[03:26:51] zurn: faq says 3ghz for hdtv decoding (tv tuner), is that 3ghz single core, or 3ghz regardless of how many cores you have (e.g. can the processor compensate and run all other processes on other core(s) so that you record on a sub-3ghz processor?

[03:57:29] Captain_Murdoch: and what's the issue, a deadlock?
[03:57:54] Captain_Murdoch: nevermind, it's not our lock issue if it's what I see you mentioned above.
[03:59:52] pyther: http://cvs.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/7610
[04:00:11] pyther: It seems that it breaks with the mysql 5.1.41 upgrade
[04:01:33] pyther: It actually seems to be an issue with QMYSQL3
[04:01:42] pyther: but I dunno what QMYSQL3 is!
[04:01:55] Cardoe_: That's Qt's MySQL wrapper
[04:02:10] Cardoe_: but if you're using MythTV 0.22... you're not using QMYSQL3...
[04:02:21] Cardoe_: that's from Qt3
[04:03:03] Captain_Murdoch: Cardoe_, I just doublechecked, we have "QMSQL3" in our QSqlDatabase::addDatabase() call, so that's probably where that comes from.
[04:03:05] pyther: Well I indeed have mythtv 0.22
[04:03:25] Cardoe_: Captain_Murdoch: oh well there ya go then
[04:03:37] pyther: Would that cause everything to break?
[04:03:39] Captain_Murdoch: still sounds like a Qt issue since Qt calls mysql commands, we don't.
[04:05:22] ** Captain_Murdoch resists asking what was broken with the MythTV box before that caused the user to want to upgrade it. :| **
[04:05:56] Cardoe_: I didn't know any distros were shipping 5.1.x

[04:06:38] maddslacker: or just bleeding
[04:07:01] pyther: Actually it was an issue with the frontend that caused me to dig into the backend
[04:07:06] Cardoe_: pyther: I'd file a bug with your distro for them to test their Qt packages with MySQL
[04:07:39] pyther: But it really isn't a distro bug is it?
[04:08:36] pyther: Isn't really a qt bug?
[04:08:45] iamlindoro: jpabq, The only thing I can guess at here is locale issues on the system-- any odd/unusual locale settings?
[04:09:45] maddslacker: pyther, what version of qt?
[04:09:46] jpabq: iamlindoro, hmmm, not that I can think of. Both are set to the same time zone, and I assume both are in the "c" local, but I can check that.
[04:10:14] pyther: 4.5.3
[04:10:23] iamlindoro: jpabq, I only know that some people with non-UTF-8 locales have had weird file remove/add issues, thinking this might be similar
[04:10:29] iamlindoro: off to find some dinner
[04:10:29] maddslacker: i'm checking mine
[04:10:52] pyther: Hmm I think it might be a socket issue

[04:12:02] iamlindoro: jpabq, no problem, I hope it sends you in the right direction-- -v file,network on the backend during a scan may be enlightening for what it does, or doesn't list

[04:13:25] pyther: maddslacker, you update mysql?
[04:13:33] maddslacker: lemme check

[04:14:09] maddslacker: this is my slackware-current box
[04:14:17] maddslacker: my 13 box is a bit older of course
[04:14:23] pyther: Does myth connect the the mysql.sock?
[04:14:49] pyther: "This update breaks MySQL support in PHP and Amarok. Akonadi and MythTV don't start too.All them are looking for /tmp/mysql.sock when it is in /var/run/mysql/ named mysqld.sock."
[04:15:02] pyther: So I dunno if that is the cause or if qt is the cause
[04:15:16] maddslacker: that looks like that would be it
[04:15:24] pyther: Sadly I don't have enough knowledge about mythtv and sql :-l
[04:15:33] maddslacker: same
[04:15:34] pyther: So myth looks for a socket?
[04:16:24] maddslacker: dunno
[04:17:51] pyther: Well I'll see what happens. I posted on the bug report I created so hopefully someone more knowledgeable can help me out

[04:22:54] Captain_Murdoch: I doubt that my playback box threaded loading affected Cardoe's VDPAU issue. that just creates a busy dialog popup, loads the recording list in the background, then displays the list. it shouldn't have any effect on playing back a recording after the screen is initially loaded.

[05:18:40] borei: sphery: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --xvmc-lib=XvMCNVIDIA_dynamic
[05:18:54] borei: sphery: missed your answer
[05:18:54] Cardoe_: somehow -fPIC is getting passed in
[05:19:40] tre: maddslacker, do you use nuvexport for transcoding then?
[05:19:52] PhoenixUT: Cardoe_: I had that problem when using the portage ebuilds, but since I started using MarcT's SVN ones the problem magically fixed itself
[05:20:14] Cardoe_: PhoenixUT: well yeah cause he's sed'ing out all the -fPIC out of all the MythTV .pro files
[05:20:35] Cardoe_: Which just doing that blindly isn't the right solution

[05:20:57] maddslacker: tre, tbh the only couple of things I've wanted to export I've just run through ffmpeg
[05:21:02] Cardoe_: His ebuilds are just an old copy of mine
[05:21:16] Cardoe_: I've pointed out he should probably keep up with other fixes
[05:21:18] maddslacker: tre, you might check this out though
[05:21:19] maddslacker: http://mythrip.longstair.com/
[05:21:31] wagnerrp: Cardoe_: last i checked, gentoo users on any processor couldnt compile on i386
[05:21:41] luux: wait, what fixes?
[05:21:47] wagnerrp: ive got the same issues on a P3 and an AthXP
[05:21:52] sphery: borei: if you have XvMC wrapper, you need to use --disable-xvmcw
[05:21:52] PhoenixUT: yeah I actually use a local version of the two somewhat munged together
[05:22:06] Cardoe_: wagnerrp: It appears that MythTV by default always uses -march=pentiumpro for i386
[05:22:07] borei: i have wrapper
[05:22:17] luux: I got this one ---> 0.22_p22824-r1
[05:22:19] Cardoe_: but when we respect what users put in /etc/make.conf, there's an issue
[05:22:20] luux: is that old?
[05:22:27] Cardoe_: luux: no that's new
[05:22:38] luux: ah ok
[05:22:41] borei: i'll try
[05:22:44] Cardoe_: need to grab the NZ chan scan fix for SD
[05:22:49] borei: thanks for heads up
[05:22:52] PhoenixUT: I did attempt to fix the portage ebuild for the -fPIC problem but never actually tracked down all the ffmpeg libraries that can't be built with -fPIC on i386
[05:23:00] sphery: borei: also, you probably just want --xvmc-lib=XvMCNVIDIA
[05:23:32] tre: maddslacker, thanks mythrip looks like a good alternative
[05:23:34] borei: yeah
[05:23:42] maddslacker: tre, friend of mine wrote it
[05:24:23] Cardoe_: PhoenixUT: wagnerrp: luux: any other issues with the Gentoo ebuilds?
[05:24:25] sphery: Cardoe_: kormoc was saying the failure on 32-bit x86 is because users are compiling using a hardened profile and that it works fine if they don't. That doesn't mean much to mean, but hope it means something to you Gentoo'ers.
[05:24:50] Cardoe_: sphery: mm it does.
[05:25:01] Cardoe_: sphery: thanks
[05:25:11] sphery: good... because that was the limit of my memory :)
[05:25:29] PhoenixUT: last time I remember having the fPIC problem I think I was just using the default desktop profile
[05:25:35] PhoenixUT: but it's been several months
[05:26:08] Cardoe_: I want to try to nail this issue down shortly and stabilize the 0.22 series
[05:26:44] PhoenixUT: I haven't run into any issues with the ebuilds other than the fPIC problem
[05:27:49] PhoenixUT: I haven't tried recently though, I can try emerging on this machine

[06:34:01] luux: k
[06:34:17] luux: let me, re-run the scan.
[06:34:21] iamlindoro: It just takes the digital stream provided by the broadcaster and dumps it to disk-- if you believe that everything coming in that tuner will be HD, you are mistaken-- most of it won't be-- and most of what there is will be encrypted
[06:34:26] iamlindoro: and rescanning won't do anything
[06:34:56] iamlindoro: you will still be getting a bunch of low value channels, and at best, NBC, CBS, ABC, and Fox in HD

[06:36:13] iamlindoro: And mostly SD

[06:36:24] luux: alright. why so many choices of broadcast? us-cable-irc us-cable-hrc us-cable

[10:08:05] flexxxv: all the same size

[10:08:26] justinh: so the teletext graphics are too small like the text
[10:08:33] flexxxv: yes

[12:01:33] antgel: Dibblah: well, i'm not sure how else to debug it apart from "try and scan for it". i've brought it up here and nobody had the bandwidth to assist much. i haven't yet tried the UPDATE channel SET mplexid=21 WHERE chanid = 101005;, but even if that is the problem, i don't know why it wasn't done by the scanner. if anyone can assist my debugging efforts, i've got the hardware here ready to go
[12:02:29] Dibblah: antgel: I'm assuming this is DVB-s freeview – freesat?
[12:03:04] antgel: Dibblah: yes, DVB-S freesat
[12:10:44] Dibblah: ... And you checked on the mailing list?
[12:10:48] Dibblah: "I think you will find that you need to be set for TV+RADIO or ALL in "desired services".
[12:10:48] Dibblah: Try a "Scan of single existing transport" on 11426000 Hz with "desired services" set to all. "
[12:11:27] Dibblah: And...
[12:11:38] Dibblah: http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/changeset/21572 was only applied to trunk, NOT fixes.
[12:15:03] antgel: Dibblah: yes to ML. tried the scans as mentioned (as per my bug report). interesting comment regarding the patch, but i just checked and it *is* in my mpegstreamdata.cpp (yes i'm running 0.22-fixes)
[12:17:49] Dibblah: Ah. 0.21-fixes, apparently, that comment was referring to.
[12:18:07] antgel: *nod*
[12:19:42] antgel: also just noticed in my sql paste: it's known that ITV HD is channel number 10510. but my channel table has it with chanid 101005. is chanid not the same as the channel number, or is something just very broken
[12:20:11] justinh: chanid is just a number
[12:20:31] antgel: also, does anyone know if it's worth working on this outside ITV HD broadcast hours, or if there will be no stream at all for the DVB-S card to lock on to. a testcard or something would be nice
[12:20:53] justinh: the stream (PID etc) is inactive when it's off air
[12:21:17] jduggan: antgel: just give up
[12:21:18] jduggan: :D
[12:21:34] jduggan: i havent bothered trying to get HD
[12:21:37] jduggan: i tried for like 10minutes
[12:21:42] jduggan: and realised it wasnt worth the effort
[12:21:56] jduggan: i dont watch The Bill... and i like to watch sport live
[12:22:02] jduggan: so theres nothing else of worth recording :D
[12:22:09] justinh: there's literally only a couple of hours (tops) broadcast on ITV HD daily
[12:22:29] antgel: jduggan: NEVER :) it should work, so i want it to work. i've invested a lot of blood, sweat and tears in this freesat setup, and i'll get it working or... not

[12:23:28] antgel: jduggan: i wasn't, just chatting about it. should really be working but somehow got sidetracked in here
[12:23:31] justinh: AFAIK they don't even have a placeholder for it when it's off-air
[12:23:56] antgel: all my attempted setup has been during THOSE ALL TOO SHORT broadcasting hours
[12:23:57] jduggan: IIRC they're going to change it to a regular channel
[12:24:04] jduggan: so thatll make it easier :)
[12:24:12] antgel: *perk*

[12:24:52] justinh: IIRC a lot of FTV channels on Astra will move to FTA eventually

[12:26:25] justinh: they weren't even 16:9 last time we got that channel
[12:26:57] justinh: so all the wide stuff was letterboxed & myth would show it pillarboxed. net result.. a teeny rectangle in the middle of the screen

[13:38:41] justinh: WTF?
[13:38:59] justinh: seen ONE instance of a DVB-S card having two coax inputs before
[13:39:06] mzb: sure that's not an input and a passthru?
[13:39:09] justinh: and they weren't independent
[13:39:28] mzb: check for Linux-compatibility first and work from there
[13:39:32] justinh: unless the tuner card says DUAL (or more) TUNER, it's only SINGLE tuner
[13:40:12] justinh: FWIW putting passthru on DVB-S cards is utterlyu retarded. You can't just chain dvb-s connections together
[13:40:29] justinh: but do it, some manufacturers do

[19:07:58] Dagmar: devinheitmueller: Being that this is the fifth time the issue has been in my face in two months, I'll make a note to myself to scribble something up in the wiki about it later tonight
[19:08:03] degrade: devinheitmueller: You know where to buy new PVR-150?
[19:08:08] Dagmar: Frankly, people should just buy more freakin' RAM, but that's their decision
[19:08:18] Dagmar: degrade: On the other side of someone's time machine.
[19:08:24] devinheitmueller: degrade: the PVR-150 cannot be sold in the United States anymore. You can probably get it on ebay.
[19:08:30] Dagmar: They don't make them anymore, so you're highly unlikely to find them new
[19:08:38] Dagmar: devinheitmueller: Um, no.
[19:08:42] Dagmar: It *can* be sold in the US.
[19:08:49] Dagmar: There's no restriction against it.
[19:08:51] degrade: devinheitmueller: Cannot? Any Law?
[19:08:53] devinheitmueller: Yeah, but it has to have that nasty disclaimer, and they don't ship it anymore.
[19:09:06] Dagmar: There's just not as much point in trying since no one's broadacsting analog NTSC over the air anymore.
[19:09:16] degrade: Dagmar: Yes, *cannot* seems like a restriction :D
[19:09:26] Dagmar: It'll only work with people's analog cable--although that's still like 40% of households
[19:09:50] devinheitmueller: Yes, I misspoke when I said cannot.
[19:10:18] degrade: Dagmar: I won't use the ATSC or Analog... I need the Composite interface at all :D
[19:10:34] degrade: devinheitmueller: Ok. Now I undestand.
[19:10:36] devinheitmueller: The ruling says "after May 25, 2007, all television equipment being sold should contain a digital tuner, or should be identified at the point-of-sale as not having one"

[19:20:30] martint: <MartinJT> I suppose I'll give that a try then...

[19:21:03] degrade: I'm calling to hauppauge now ...
[19:21:11] Dagmar: devinheitmueller: The sentence implies that if it weren't for "this" the thing would be able to record more than one channel per tuner simultaneously, which isn't true
[19:21:27] devinheitmueller: skd5aner: yes, there can be multiple subchannels on a single ATSC transponder.
[19:21:38] Dagmar: "this" being that the tuners are hybrid
[19:21:40] martint: no I meant to copy the ubuntuforums url... but I'm vnc'd... and it didn't come aceoss
[19:22:00] devinheitmueller: Dagmar: I agree the language is convoluted.
[19:22:23] martint: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1330719
[19:22:28] devinheitmueller: Dagmar: I think the goal was to explain that because there is only one tuner, that is why it cannot capture both analog and digital simultaneously.
[19:22:32] skd5aner: devinheitmueller: yup, someone else said that ATSC/QAM isn't multiplexed, I was disagreing, but can't speak authoritatively about it
[19:23:11] devinheitmueller: skd5aner: You cannot multiplex ATSC and QAM with each other, but within a given ATSC or QAM stream, there can be multiple video streams (commonly referred to as subchannels)
[19:23:20] Dagmar: Far as I know, the analog side is framegrabber stuff for that one
[19:23:25] skd5aner: right
[19:23:33] devinheitmueller: skd5aner: in fact, it is common for *all* the ClearQAM channels you receive to be on only one or two frequencies.
[19:24:03] skd5aner: that is what I thought, and why multirec within myth works very well for me w/QAM-256 :)
[19:24:07] devinheitmueller: Dagmar: The hardware supports both a raw analog (framegrabber) and an MPEG encoder.
[19:24:10] Dagmar: devinheitmueller: So that card's hardware seriously somehow keeps it from using multiplexing to report more than one channel on teh same freq?

[19:25:13] devinheitmueller: Dagmar: I think you are a bit confused. For a given tuner, you can only be tuned to one frequency, for either analog or digital. However, for digital, it is possible that multiple "channels" are delivered on a single frequency.
[19:25:25] Dagmar: devinheitmueller: This I'm aware of
[19:25:46] Dagmar: skd5aner: Dude, what the hell do you think I'm sitting here lining up things to fix later tonight for?
[19:25:55] devinheitmueller: That said, you cannot simultaneously have a single tuner tuned to both an analog and a digital channel.
[19:26:04] Dagmar: I know that.
[19:26:19] Dagmar: ...and that sentence is broken.
[19:26:31] Dagmar: You *could* set a tuner to both at once, if they were both broadcast on the same freq
[19:26:39] Dagmar: All you'd get is radio garbage tho
[19:26:49] Dagmar: ...because they're on the same bloody freq.
[19:27:09] Dagmar: ...and analog would obliterate any attempt at a digital signal
[19:27:30] devinheitmueller: Dagmar: No, you cannot. Depending on the tuner chip, the tuner chip has to know whether to deliver analog video or digital across the IF.
[19:27:57] ** Dagmar waits for you to finish reading what he typed. **
[19:28:33] Dagmar: A "tuner" doesn't have to know those things.
[19:28:38] devinheitmueller: Dagmar: I don't believe you would even get a carrier lock.
[19:28:41] Dagmar: The recieving circuits that do somethign with it do
[19:28:55] devinheitmueller: Dagmar: that statement is incorrect for many tuner chips.
[19:28:59] Dagmar: devinheitmueller: Obviously because the analog would screw up the digital part

[19:29:37] devinheitmueller: For *very* dumb tuners, it is true, but most of the newer silicon tuners have at least some demodulation circuitry on board, and needs to know the channel bandwidth.
[19:29:40] Dagmar: Doesn't matter, I know how to fix the verbiage now
[19:30:34] Dagmar: It's pointless to distinguish the bit about only one source

[19:31:27] devinheitmueller: Dagmar: since your target audience is end-users, you might want to change the verbiage to provide some examples of what can be done (breaking down the two tuners).
[19:31:43] devinheitmueller: Of course, under Linux, none of it is relevant since there is no analog support.
[19:31:48] Dagmar: I can just make the verbiage not be incorrect and it should have the same effect.
[19:31:58] Dagmar: "A hybrid tuner is one that can record both NTSC and ATSC/QAM sources but shares the hardware to do so. Because of this, each tuner can only record from one source at a time."
[19:32:07] Dagmar: "This" referring to the fact that the tuners are "hybrid".
[19:32:07] devinheitmueller: The verbiage can just as easily say "this product can capture one or two ATSC/QAM streams simultaneously"
[19:32:47] devinheitmueller: True, but you should probably add that the 2250 has *two* hybrid tuners onboard.
[19:32:59] Dagmar: It's already mentioned elsewhere.
[19:33:06] Dagmar: English, I speak it.
[19:33:08] Dagmar: :)
[19:33:25] devinheitmueller: And even "hybrid" can be a bit of a misnomer, since the HVR-1600 is considered by most to be a hybrid tuner but it in fact *can* capture both ATSC/QAM and analog at the same time.
[19:33:33] RDV_Linux_: martint: I relied in the ubuntu forum post
[19:33:34] Dagmar: "Over 35 years of experience!"
[19:33:42] martint: thanks...
[19:35:37] Dagmar: devinheitmueller: It has two tuners.
[19:35:50] devinheitmueller: Dagmar: while you are there, it might make sense to also chang ethe "Support Status" from "not implemented" to "implemented for digital only – no analog support currently", or some such text.
[19:36:14] devinheitmueller: Dagmar: Yes, I am intimately familiar with the HVR-1600's hardware design.

[19:36:34] martint: I've not installed the frontend on that machine at all..
[19:36:37] devinheitmueller: However, people often still refer to it as a hybrid tuner product since it supports both analog and digital.
[19:36:51] Dagmar: re to "not implemented" are you talking about for the 2250 or the 1600?

[19:38:24] devinheitmueller: You don't think those two statements are contradictory?
[19:38:54] Dagmar: No I think the Support Status field is being rather loosely treated as an indicator of whether or not Myth explicitly has special support for the device
[19:39:07] devinheitmueller: There is no special support required.
[19:39:11] Dagmar: For the PVR-1600 that field says "Works with MythTV 0.21, but not explicitly supported "
[19:40:12] devinheitmueller: Yeah, what the hell does "explicitly supported"? Are we talking about whether an engineer is actively claiming to support it when it breaks? It works, so as far as I'm concerned that means it's supported.
[19:40:13] Dagmar: Defining "supported" is something I'm not really getting into, because to me it would make a little more sense to just ditch that field
[19:40:38] Dagmar: It would appear the main idea being "did a developer actually put code in with this specific device in mind"
[19:40:52] martint: RDV_Linux_, you can copy the xml frontend it seems...
[19:41:03] Dagmar: If other devices work by virtue of being compatible, then they're functional, but not necessariy supported explicitly
[19:41:13] devinheitmueller: Dagmar: There was no code required specifically for this device. The device conformed to the linux-dvb spec, so it just worked.
[19:41:27] RDV_Linux_: martint: As long as it is correctly configured
[19:41:28] Dagmar: Being that the setup program only has generic types of support to pick from, rather than a strictly itemized list by specific card type...

[19:41:58] backslash7: Hey folks – I just installed Ubuntu and mythtv and everything is fine except that I can't scan for channels with my Hauppauge card using v4l on my analog line.
[19:42:00] Dagmar: devinheitmueller: So it's supported by v4l, but not explicitly addressed as a distinct card type by myth
[19:42:12] devinheitmueller: So you're saying that you think that even though it works perfectly in MythTV, that it should be considered "not supported" because no new code was required?
[19:42:27] Dagmar: If I touch *that* verbiage tho I'll have to come up with a guideline for what constitutes support and what doesn't.
[19:42:33] devinheitmueller: Lord.
[19:42:42] devinheitmueller: This is a staggeringly painful conversation.
[19:42:47] Dagmar: ...which I don't think would be as useful as replacing the damn field with one that says "WORKS OR NOT? YA-NO?"
[19:43:09] Dagmar: Yes, because you're wanting to worry about what it means on that one page.
[19:43:11] backslash7: I don't wanna use a grabber and thus have no channels available right now
[19:43:21] Dagmar: I'm worried about keeping that table consistent across all the pages.
[19:43:23] backslash7: I can't press the Scan channels button it's disabled :/

[19:43:40] Dagmar: I can't easily solve *that* problem, so I'm not touching that field in thsoe tables at all
[19:43:40] devinheitmueller: Yes, I am concerned that less knowledgeable users will go to that page, see the words "not supported" and think that card does not work with MythTV.
[19:43:48] Dagmar: So change it
[19:44:08] iamlindoro: backslash7: The analog channel scanner is disabled in .22, as it's not finished/broken. The only option is to use a grabber or add the channels manually
[19:44:18] Dagmar: It can't be any more or less wrong pretty much unless it says "requires strawberry flavoring to work"
[19:44:24] backslash7: .............. WTF
[19:44:31] backslash7: iamlindoro: thanks for the info
[19:44:35] iamlindoro: np
[19:44:36] backslash7: but what the heck, really?
[19:44:56] backslash7: how do you remove functionality after an update
[19:44:57] iamlindoro: Sorry, I'll arrange for a full refund. You can speak to my manager, devinheitmueller
[19:45:08] backslash7: :/
[19:45:09] Dagmar: backslash7: When it haasn't worked correctly in a long while
[19:45:16] maddslacker: devinheitmueller, as a new user, I read that very page and was a little mystified, but what I took away is that it should work out of the box
[19:45:19] iamlindoro: Because the channel scanner has been rewriten, and isn't done yet
[19:45:25] backslash7: It has for me a couple of months ago with a previous version
[19:45:36] iamlindoro: and approximately 0 of the devs use analog/analog+no grabber
[19:45:47] devinheitmueller: iamlindoro: are you suggesting that I am your manager, or were you offering me a full refund?
[19:45:48] backslash7: You got a point there
[19:45:51] iamlindoro: a couple of months ago != today
[19:46:04] backslash7: today > a couple of months ago
[19:46:10] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: I'm suggesting that you are my manager, and that you get to talk to backslash7 about his refund ;)
[19:46:12] backslash7: well, not now appearantly ;)
[19:46:18] Dagmar: backslash7: So write a scanner in perl then
[19:46:19] devinheitmueller: iamlindoro: Ah, ok.
[19:46:34] devinheitmueller: iamlindoro: Sure, refunds for everybody! Where is my checkbook?
[19:46:40] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: Just randomly chose your name because I knew you were here :)

[19:47:11] devinheitmueller: Oh, I'm here, although considering blowing my brains out from this debate of what constitutes "supported".
[19:47:12] backslash7: roughly
[19:47:18] Dagmar: backslash7: When you write it
[19:47:20] devinheitmueller: backslash7: patches welcome.
[19:47:33] Dagmar: Everyone else uses a listings source to populate their channel tables
[19:47:39] Dagmar: ...because it's FASTER.
[19:47:42] iamlindoro: roughly when someone takes time away from paying the mortgage and caring for children to write scanning for cards they don't use or own
[19:47:43] backslash7: What language? Just out of curiosity
[19:47:46] iamlindoro: or when someone who does does it
[19:47:52] iamlindoro: C++/Qt
[19:47:52] Dagmar: backslash7: Any language will do
[19:48:15] backslash7: C++ cool
[19:48:18] iamlindoro: Should be added back in for .23, but who knows
[19:48:21] backslash7: What's wrong with the old version
[19:48:29] backslash7: is it bad?
[19:48:35] iamlindoro: it sucked and was impossible to improve/maintain/add to
[19:48:36] Dagmar: Have you looked at the source?
[19:48:57] iamlindoro: A channel scanner that works for every locale on earth, for every TV standard is *not simple*
[19:49:03] backslash7: Not yet
[19:49:15] backslash7: Yeah I get that
[19:49:21] iamlindoro: If Myth arbitrarily decided only to support DVB in Germany, writing a channel scanner would be easy
[19:49:25] backslash7: Are there listings for every country on earth then?

[19:50:10] iamlindoro: But people who don't like it and aren't going to fix it are welcome to use a version that makes them happy
[19:50:49] backslash7: But just using XMLTV and fetch EPG from a web site doesn't tell mythtv the frequency of the channels does it?
[19:51:33] iamlindoro: no, but analog doesn't work that way... you just need a valid frequency table and whole channel numbers
[19:51:51] iamlindoro: which is why a channel scan for analog has *always* been a bad idea, even when it worked
[19:52:20] backslash7: I had all the channels set up in a previous installation and I still have a backup of my /usr/share/mythtv is that gonna help?
[19:52:22] devinheitmueller: iamlindoro: I'm a little surprised though that we don't use the channel scanner to filter out the channels you don't get (as opposed from having to manually remove them)
[19:52:25] backslash7: iamlindoro: oh ok
[19:52:53] iamlindoro: backslash7: /usr/share wouldn't help, no... you could go back to .21, restore a database with the channels, and upgrade and you should have your channels
[19:52:56] kormoc: devinheitmueller: a tv station isn't always on the air
[19:53:05] kormoc: devinheitmueller: scan at the wrong time, lose a channel
[19:53:08] ** skd5aner tosses hat into the ring **
[19:53:09] backslash7: Where is that database then?
[19:53:17] backslash7: isnt it sqlite?
[19:53:18] iamlindoro: backslash7: wherever you put it
[19:53:20] iamlindoro: no
[19:53:22] iamlindoro: MySQL
[19:53:32] iamlindoro: how does one get myth set up in the first place without knowing what DB we use?
[19:53:34] iamlindoro: anyway
[19:53:41] devinheitmueller: kormoc: I wasn't suggesting periodically doing a channel scan so much as at initial setup. Certainly, if your argument were true then TVs wouldn't both including a channel autoscan feature.
[19:53:49] skd5aner: - "supported" on a mythtv wiki should indicate if it "works" in myth, since there is no expectation of "support" really at all – and, on a wiki dedicate to myth, it shouldn't indicate general linux support
[19:53:59] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: FWIW having a v4l dev looking at myth channel changing/scanning is very, very, very welcome

[19:54:20] devinheitmueller: iamlindoro: Yeah, I would really like to. I've just been to busy.
[19:54:37] devinheitmueller: The fact that the analog scanning is disabled bothered me. And I could probably help out quite a bit on the digital side.
[19:54:53] iamlindoro: Just didn't want it to come across the wrong way-- your input/experience would be very valued
[19:54:56] devinheitmueller: I've just got too many people banging on me for other things.
[19:54:58] kormoc: devinheitmueller: my only tv that had autoscan would always require me to manually add stations after the auto-scan because they were too 'low' to pick up
[19:54:59] ** kormoc shrugs **
[19:55:00] Prost (Prost!i=prost@who.knows.what.possessed.us) has joined #mythtv-users
[19:55:19] devinheitmueller: kormoc: well, that is interesting.
[19:56:01] iamlindoro: I would love for myth to be able to do some auto-maintenance of channels... obviously would need to be disable-able for cases where people have off-air stations
[19:56:09] devinheitmueller: kormoc: I guess your television had some sort of minimal quality standard instead of just whether it could achieve carrier lock. Most televisions I have seen will include channels that at least achieve a lock, and sometimes you have to remove ones that are really crap.
[19:56:30] kormoc: fair 'nuff, it was a very very very cheap tv
[19:56:30] iamlindoro: But channel moving/shuffling is really the elephant in the room for all homebrew DVRs... would be neat to be the ones with a solution to it
[19:56:38] backslash7: iamlindoro: channel.frm/myd/myi might that be it?
[19:57:04] ** kormoc sighs **
[19:57:12] devinheitmueller: iamlindoro: yeah, it's a tough problem. You would typically want to do such an analysis in the middle of the day (since that's when most channels are on-the-air), but that's when people actually want to watch TV.
[19:57:16] kormoc: backslash7: you need to start backing up your databases correctly...

[19:57:31] iamlindoro: backslash7: the files aren't going to be helpful, need a real DB backup, like kormoc suggests
[19:58:03] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: yeah... sucks to not have access to the proprietary channel mapping methods (SCTE-65 aside)
[19:58:09] devinheitmueller: yeah.
[19:58:23] backslash7: I didn't exactly prepare for the face that with the next mythtv version I won't be able to scan channels anymore so pardon me if I havent fully backed up my entire databases
[19:58:27] backslash7: I'm just trying to get my channels back
[19:58:43] iamlindoro: backslash7: *any* myth update should be preceded by a DB backup
[19:58:54] iamlindoro: and if I had my way, everyone would have nightlies too
[19:58:55] devinheitmueller: iamlindoro: yeah, if the OOB didn't do OFDM modulation, I could probably hack an existing tuner product to read it.
[19:58:57] kormoc: check to see if your myth backed up your db for you automatically
[19:59:09] maddslacker: ok, oobe was helpful in getting my mythweb up and running, but I have an error in the'videos' link:
[19:59:10] maddslacker: Error
[19:59:11] maddslacker: Could not find a value in the database for the MythVideo directory for this hostname (fchqcmlaptop). Please update your <a href="http://localhost/mythweb/settings/mythweb&quo . . . gs</a> to point to the correct location.
[19:59:18] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: yeah.... :(
[19:59:24] maddslacker: I've checked the directories listed and it *seems* correct
[19:59:35] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: You know, there is another spot where having a v4l dev's input would be helpful
[19:59:38] skd5aner: on that note, not that it impacts me, but is it clearly communicated somewhere that analog channel scanning is disabled for .22 for those folks who want to take the plunge but need to know the "risk"?
[19:59:46] iamlindoro: especially if it propogated back to a discussion on that side...
[19:59:49] skd5aner: I mean – without searching the wiki/mailing lists
[20:00:08] skd5aner: I know it's out there if you look for it :)
[20:00:11] kormoc: skd5aner: we never recommend analog scanning anyway, so...
[20:00:45] skd5aner: kormoc: yea – I've never used it, just heard it come up as a "surprise" to some folks after .22 was released and many times the answer has been to downgrade, scan, then upgrade
[20:01:02] backslash7: that would be me then
[20:01:07] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: We'd really, really like to have an automated detection of tuner devices.... but every time we try to figure out how best to do it, it's a nightmare of certain drivers returning some info, some returning none, etc.... do you have any notions of how we could a) autodetect the capabilities of all installed cards, and b) reconnect with the right nodes on reboot without requiring udev or module options?
[20:01:07] kormoc: actually, that's only if they *want* to scan, the main answer is to just not scan
[20:01:20] skd5aner: yup – backslash7, do you live in the US?
[20:01:34] backslash7: Switzerland which is why I make such a big deal out of it
[20:01:35] devinheitmueller: iamlindoro: well, there are a few different issues there.
[20:01:39] backslash7: I really depend on that stuff
[20:01:42] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: Maybe if the API had enforced standards regarding a query for capabilities/serial number/something like that
[20:01:57] skd5aner: Is there now XMLTV solution for Switzerland?
[20:02:01] skd5aner: now=no
[20:02:12] devinheitmueller: They do provide their capabilities consistently (and if you know of any cards that do not, let me know). Serial number is alot harder because many do not actually have one.
[20:02:23] backslash7: There is one I tried with 0.21 to fetch EPG data
[20:02:39] backslash7: Is that gonna get my channels back?
[20:02:56] devinheitmueller: The big issue I see in the application space has to do with finding the right ALSA and VBI device for analog capture, and being able to automatically associate DVB and analog devices (so myth doesn't try to use them both at the same time)
[20:03:49] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: yeah, finding some sort of genuinely unique attribute on the cards would at least help us solve the tuner reconnection issue... the autodetect of capabilties, maybe that's easier and we just don't know how to do it
[20:04:02] devinheitmueller: I had an extended conversation about a number of these issues at the Linux Plumbers Conference in September.
[20:04:24] devinheitmueller: iamlindoro: so I better understand, which "capabilities" are you referring to specifically?
[20:05:32] devinheitmueller: There *are* cases where certain devices incorrectly advertise capabilities that they do not actually have, but I have been working on fixing those as I find them.
[20:05:40] backslash7: skd5aner: Do you think I can find my channels using the XMLTV fetched data?
[20:05:57] devinheitmueller: (for example, until recently all em28xx based devices would claim to have VBI support, even though it was completely unimplemented)
[20:06:20] iamlindoro: Meh, I guess it's not really your problem, that part... it's that we probe each card type and so, for example, the average hybrid card appears as v4l and DVB, with v4l being the first in the list, so the most common mistake in Mythspace is to add the card as that, since it's what myth "autodetected," even though it's wrong
[20:06:20] Dagmar: Best efffort I think would be to scan for known PCI/USB bus ids
[20:06:51] devinheitmueller: Dagmar: there are *hundreds* of cards out there.
[20:07:01] iamlindoro: Guess we really need to write code that can identify that the two items as one physical entity, and offer to set it up in a preferred order (with digital being the top of the tier)
[20:07:06] Dagmar: devinheitmueller: Yes, there are.
[20:07:20] Dagmar: Thankfully, none of them should be sharing vend/prod IDs.
[20:07:27] devinheitmueller: iamlindoro: the "mc" framework that is being built will allow association of DVB and V4L devices.
[20:07:36] Dagmar: As to which devices were assigned what /dev/nodes, that's anyone's geuss.
[20:07:52] ** skd5aner is away **
[20:08:11] devinheitmueller: I've actually got some code that tells userland that a given v4l device is associated with a specific VBI, ALSA, and DVB device.
[20:08:15] Dagmar: You can certainly detect that there's say, a PVR-150 or a PVR-500 around and know what things it should be providing
[20:08:20] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: It's a long conversation and a headache every time it comes up... would just be such a nice thing for us to handle transparently to the user
[20:08:30] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: Oh, that'll be great
[20:08:35] devinheitmueller: iamlindoro: I hear you. It is *VERY* painful for users and applications.
[20:08:37] Dagmar: devinheitmueller: Ooooo nice
[20:08:57] Dagmar: devinheitmueller: Hows it pull that off?
[20:09:18] devinheitmueller: The lack of proper locking between V4L and DVB just makes it worse, since when people setup their config wrong it tries to use both at the same time, which causes all sorts of problems.
[20:09:19] Dagmar: I've not had time to look into finding any OS breadcrumbs to figure out where the hell it allocated resources for a device
[20:09:41] devinheitmueller: Dagmar: there is a new API being developed which rides alongside V4L to announce relationships between card components.
[20:09:48] Dagmar: Ahhh
[20:09:53] maddslacker (maddslacker!n=corey@63.150.163.134) has left #mythtv-users ("Leaving")
[20:10:00] Dagmar: THat would explain why I've not seen any of said breadcrumbs yet
[20:10:01] devinheitmueller: It's called the "media controller" framework. Feel free to Google.
[20:10:33] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: Well, if it's still up in the air, some sort of physical device UUID would be welcome
[20:10:36] iamlindoro: and worth a case of beers
[20:10:39] iamlindoro: good ones
[20:10:58] devinheitmueller: iamlindoro: yeah, I'm not sure how we can do a UUID that would work reliably with all boards.
[20:11:10] devinheitmueller: (especially when hotplug comes into play)
[20:11:20] devinheitmueller: (usb, pcmcia, etc)
[20:12:27] devinheitmueller: Many boards don't even have an eeprom, let alone a serial number. And if you do it by physical PCI slot or something, people will bitch when they pull a card and put it back in the wrong slot.
[20:13:05] iamlindoro: I could totally live with it only changing when they physically move the card
[20:13:19] ** iamlindoro is very generous with other people's work ;) **
[20:13:43] devinheitmueller: Are you really seeing cases where the cards are moving around between boots?
[20:14:14] iamlindoro: between dev nodes? Yeah, it's a constant problem for non-udev using myth users
[20:14:25] iamlindoro: non-udev-rule-writing, that is
[20:14:32] devinheitmueller: hmmm....
[20:15:19] devinheitmueller: The PCI enumeration is deterministic, so I find that a bit surprising. Are we talking about multiple PCI devices? Or is it when there are different busses?
[20:15:32] stefanj (stefanj!n=stefan@81-178-37-229.dsl.pipex.com) has joined #mythtv-users
[20:15:33] iamlindoro: Both, but even just contained within PCI
[20:15:38] devinheitmueller: interesting.

[20:15:47] MavT (MavT!n=Maverick@5356ECF3.cable.casema.nl) has joined #mythtv-users
[20:16:00] devinheitmueller: Do they see it with multiple cards when they are the same model?
[20:16:05] iamlindoro: I had been under the impression that timing issues at startup affected the order of enumeration
[20:16:07] devinheitmueller: (like two PVR-150s)?
[20:16:20] iamlindoro: yes, AFAIK
[20:16:42] justinh: yeah even cards of the same model can wind up in a different order at boot
[20:16:43] devinheitmueller: Well, the timing on the initialization itself can effect the order in which the devices are created.
[20:16:45] iamlindoro: If everything always came up in the same order, we wouldn't have near the problem we do today
[20:16:47] devinheitmueller: interesting.
[20:17:11] jams: my pvr-500's flipped around all the time until a udev rule was created
[20:17:15] iamlindoro: which as it stands is myth randomly connecting the wrong lineups/sources to the wrong cards
[20:17:18] devinheitmueller: I have to admit, I may own something like 17 tuners, but I rarely have more than one installed a the same time.
[20:17:27] justinh: back in the day when everything was just a part on the memory map... ahh those were the days
[20:17:45] devinheitmueller: :-/
[20:18:11] iamlindoro: autodetect is obviously secondary to myth just surviving a reboot
[20:18:13] devinheitmueller: jams: did you have more than one PVR-500, or do you mean the two tuners on a single PVR-500 moved around?
[20:18:26] jams: 2 cards..total of 4 tuners
[20:18:36] devinheitmueller: ok.
[20:18:37] backslash7: I'm just using tv_grab_ch_search to get my channels in XML format, will this include the frequency table for my analog line so I will able to watch TV and actually receive my channels?
[20:18:43] backslash7: Or just the data & time of a program
[20:18:50] jams: the cards flipped, but the tuners on the cards always came up in the same order
[20:19:01] iamlindoro: backslash7: frequency table is set in mythtv-setup, not by your grabber
[20:19:04] justinh: backslash7: you won't get tuning info
[20:19:08] jams: if that made any sense
[20:19:09] devinheitmueller: jams: ok, that makes some sense then. I would have been confused if the tuners on a given card reversed order.
[20:19:18] backslash7: Okay.
[20:19:21] justinh: and FYI analogue scanning is borked in 0.22 apparently
[20:19:29] backslash7: Uh... I noticed that :P
[20:19:37] backslash7: That's why I'm fiddeling around with listings
[20:19:43] justinh: heh
[20:19:49] backslash7: Can anybody tell me how I can get my tuning info?
[20:19:56] justinh: xawtv?
[20:20:02] backslash7: I just wanna watch TV :(
[20:20:03] jams: devinheitmueller- wasn't a real problem until I started using composite input on just one of the cards.
[20:20:11] backslash7: xawtv?
[20:20:13] iamlindoro: Set the frequency table right, import your channels from your listings source, done
[20:20:14] justinh: hmm I'm in a remarkably good mood everything considered
[20:20:16] jams: but anyway..just saying it happens =)
[20:20:24] devinheitmueller: jams: yeah, I hear you. If you have all four tuners plugged into the same source you are less likely to notice.
[20:20:30] justinh: iamlindoro: that won't give him the info he needs to be able to tune said channels though

[20:20:46] justinh: iamlindoro: xmltv doesn't give us freq. info
[20:20:48] backslash7: Sorry if I'm asking stupid questions
[20:21:14] justinh: not stupid
[20:21:21] justinh: xawtv is a tv viewing app for linux
[20:21:22] backslash7: just... what
[20:21:25] justinh: it can scan
[20:21:36] iamlindoro: justinh: AFAIK it doesn't need to-- set the frequency table right in myth, fetch the channels from the listings source (which are just whole number values mapped to the frequency table you've set) and should be set, no?
[20:21:40] backslash7: And tell me the frequencies?
[20:21:56] justinh: iamlindoro: in europe, channel numbers != frequencies necessarily
[20:22:02] backslash7: iamlindoro: but how do I get these frequencies
[20:22:04] backslash7: mythtv used to scan it in 0.21
[20:22:04] justinh: backslash7: yeah I think so
[20:22:19] iamlindoro: backslash7: you don't *import* frequencies, myth has hardcoded frequency tables
[20:22:20] justinh: backslash7: do you still have the 0.21 db ?
[20:22:23] iamlindoro: ie europe-west
[20:22:39] justinh: iamlindoro: channel numbers don't come with xmltv either
[20:22:50] iamlindoro: Well that's your dodgy grabber's fault ;)
[20:23:01] justinh: providers differ too much
[20:23:02] backslash7: justinh: I could find it again yes but is there no other way?
[20:23:12] justinh: backslash7: not without using another app
[20:23:17] backslash7: I don't mind
[20:23:32] backslash7: xawtv you said
[20:23:48] justinh: or downgrade to 0.21 with a new db, scan, dump the channel table & then upgrade. heh
[20:24:02] backslash7: definitely not enough time for that right now lo.
[20:24:10] backslash7: oh man this sucls

[20:31:19] justinh: ever since the retune business the other week
[20:32:14] justinh: just seen the email from monit
[20:33:43] backslash7: I found a frequency table of my local TV provider with the MHz on it, does that help?
[20:33:50] justinh: yup
[20:34:31] justinh: configure your channel lineup with xmltv. then go back into the channel editor & add the frequencies one by one
[20:35:00] backslash7: Okay... It's still fetching the listings so I'll give it a shot in a couple of minutes
[20:35:02] justinh: or improvise a script to parse the table & insert the frequencies with that. not what I'd recommend
[20:35:31] backslash7: I don't know how to insert frequencies by command line
[20:35:42] backslash7: Could I just fill it into the mysql databse myself?
[20:35:49] justinh: you don't do it on the command line
[20:36:01] justinh: backslash7: we don't recommend people do that here

[21:42:30] devinheitmueller: iamlindoro: ok, I had some discussion with mkrufky on some various ways we can deal with this UUID issue. I will see if I can come up with a proposal, and put you on the CC since I would definitely be interested in how consumers of the interface feel about it.
[21:42:53] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: Absolutely, I would love to at least be a spectator to that
[21:43:06] iamlindoro: gbee ^^ maybe an interest
[21:43:07] iamlindoro: ?
[21:43:15] iamlindoro: oh damn, he's not here
[21:43:51] devinheitmueller: Hey, is anybody else having trouble with VDPAU crapping out intermittently?
[21:44:20] Dagmar: I'm not having it (not using it) but I am pretty sure you're not alone.
[21:44:24] backslash7: i never should have upgraded to fucking 0.22 this sucks badly... thank you so much for your time justinh but screw this for now
[21:44:30] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: There's an open ticket re: 30% failure rate on VDPAU playback
[21:44:38] devinheitmueller: I setup a box with the current trunk a few weeks ago, and just got around to using it. Seems like sometimes watching livetv just doesn't work.
[21:44:40] devinheitmueller: Really?
[21:44:49] Dagmar: All I can say for certain is that it might be the power saving stuff screwing you up
[21:44:56] devinheitmueller: hmmm... ok, well that's *really* good to know. I was worried a bit it might have been my tuner card.
[21:45:05] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: It seems to only happen for certain people/certain hardware, but Mark (who wrote a lot of the VDPAU code) is mid-tracking it down
[21:45:30] devinheitmueller: When you say 30% failure rate, do you mean that for 30% of the population it fails 100% of the time, or do you mean that 100% of the population is seeing failure 30% of the time.
[21:45:41] devinheitmueller: Because at least in my case, it works *sometimes*.
[21:45:44] iamlindoro: I'm saying for a minority of the population it fails 30% of the time
[21:45:48] devinheitmueller: ok.
[21:45:52] devinheitmueller: interesting.
[21:46:06] Dagmar: Someone was making a compelling argument the other night about when the CPU gets downclocked to save power, so does the memory bus, which consequently starves VDPAU

[21:46:38] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: For background on the issue You can look at the "30% of the time" thread on -dev/commits
[21:46:57] devinheitmueller: Yeah, I was going to ask for a ticket number.
[21:47:00] Cardoe_: devinheitmueller: ticket #7611 sounr about right?
[21:47:01] ** devinheitmueller looks **
[21:47:04] iamlindoro: seems to mostly affet those with the lower power VDPAU hardware, but that's just a conclusion I've drawn and not necessarily the case

[21:47:08] ** devinheitmueller looks. **
[21:47:44] devinheitmueller: Yeah, that looks about right. I cannot say 100% since I don't have the logs in front of me, but I think that's it.

[21:49:35] iamlindoro: Cardoe_: out of curiosity, same window management?
[21:49:46] Cardoe_: should be
[21:49:52] Cardoe_: we're both using Mythbuntu on that box
[21:50:11] iamlindoro: interesting... the transitory nature of it "feels" like a video or system memory management issue, so was just curious
[21:52:11] devinheitmueller: The CPU downclocking theory is interesting, since when I was doing 950q work a few weeks ago I had not seen the issue, but I had been rebooting repeatedly. In this case the box had been powered up and idle for a couple of days before I tried it.
[21:52:57] sphery: 30% ticket -> http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/7493
[21:53:49] devinheitmueller: hmm... My case I thought actually looked a little more like 7611.

[21:55:31] darkfrog: I seem to be having trouble with my HD-PVR. I keep getting Channel(/dev/video0)::Tune(): Error -1 while setting frequency (v2): Invalid argument on the mythbackend...has anyone seen this before?
[21:55:32] stefanj: hello – anybody know if Mythbrowser will (or does) support XSLT ?
[21:56:27] wagnerrp: stefanj: mythbrowser is webkit based, so it should do anything other webkit browsers will do
[21:56:50] iamlindoro: darkfrog: did you set "always start on channel:" in mythtv-setup?
[21:56:58] darkfrog: iamlindoro: yes
[21:57:01] iamlindoro: Why?
[21:57:07] iamlindoro: Because that's when you broke it ;)
[21:57:16] darkfrog: iamlindoro: ...seemed like the thing to do? :o So leave it blank?
[21:57:20] iamlindoro: correct
[21:57:29] darkfrog: iamlindoro: hehe...thank you. :)
[21:57:29] sphery: devinheitmueller: I'd guess the -v playback in #7493 is suppressing that message
[21:57:45] stefanj: I have just created a xslt style sheet which works in firefox, but not in Mythbrowser
[21:58:12] devinheitmueller: Well, now that I'm looking at 7611, it was a few weeks ago that I updated the trunk, so maybe I am inside the window in which the bug supposedly was there.
[21:58:13] sphery: devinheitmueller: i.e. the message is in important or general but because the log in #7493 used -v playback and excluded important,general , you don't see it
[21:58:23] iamlindoro: http://englich.wordpress.com/2008/09/10/xsl-t-and-qt/
[21:58:29] devinheitmueller: sphery: ah, entirely possible.
[21:58:41] iamlindoro: In short, if your QTWebKit is < 4.5, you may not have XSLT capability
[21:59:02] devinheitmueller: I only killed about ten minutes investigating, so I hadn't tried updating to the latest trunk yet or doing any real debugging.
[21:59:04] stefanj: ah....thanks
[21:59:19] iamlindoro: and not even complete, then
[21:59:42] iamlindoro: full XSLT 2.0 will be in 4.6, which isn't out
[21:59:59] stefanj: 4.5.3
[22:00:07] iamlindoro: Then you have partial compatibility
[22:00:46] sphery: darkfrog: "Preset tuner to channel: Leave this blank unless you have an external tuner that is connected to the tuner input of your card. If so, you will need to specify the preset channel for the signal (normally 3 or 4)."
[22:00:57] iamlindoro: !trout sphery already said that
[22:00:57] ** MythLogBot slaps sphery with a already said that trout on behalf of iamlindoro... **
[22:01:23] iamlindoro: except, you know, without all the exact correct settings names ;)
[22:01:46] sphery: yeah, and without the help text that explicitly says to leave it blank :)
[22:01:58] antgel: lirc question – does irw repeat exactly what's coming from the hardware, or what lirc passes onto the app?
[22:02:09] iamlindoro: I told him to leave it blank! And I'm better than help text
[22:02:11] iamlindoro: because of my charming personality
[22:02:27] devinheitmueller: I'm actually a little surprised the mythbackend even issued a tuning request to the HD-PVR at all, since it's capabilities indicates it doesn't have a tuner.
[22:02:46] sphery: antgel: irw interprets button presses according to button definitions in lircd.conf, not according to button mappings in ~/.lircrc
[22:02:51] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: Oh, you'd be surprised at the silly stuff it'll do
[22:02:52] iamlindoro: ;)
[22:02:56] devinheitmueller: hhe
[22:02:58] devinheitmueller: heh.
[22:02:58] iamlindoro: where it = mythbackend
[22:02:58] devinheitmueller: ok.
[22:03:00] antgel: because the direction pad on my RM200 control is far too sensitive – irw reports loads of events for even a small press, and myth is behaving funny because of that. i have delay and repeat set to 0, but it's not happening for me
[22:03:25] sphery: devinheitmueller: it's the "Do what the user says instead of assuming we're smarter than the user" approach to development

[22:03:58] iamlindoro: s/sometimes/usually/
[22:04:26] iamlindoro: specifially, the spinbox shouldn't appear at all if the driver reports no tuner

[22:06:58] devinheitmueller: Nope. The driver is doing what it's supposed to.
[22:07:02] sphery: those are per-program mappings, not button defs--irw shows youall button events

[22:07:36] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: I don't doubt that-- however, I somewhat expect we're not parsing the capabilities at all
[22:07:39] sphery: devinheitmueller: yeah, we don't check "does this device have a tuner and if not, ignore user's invalid config"
[22:07:51] devinheitmueller: Yeah, that's what I figured.
[22:07:55] antgel: sphery: even a relatively short tap on e.g. the right arrow produces output like http://mythtv.pastebin.ca/1678407
[22:07:59] iamlindoro: Setup is a sore subject for me right now
[22:08:09] sphery: devinheitmueller: so we just try, the drivers says, "it didn't work," we give the user an error, they fix the config
[22:08:10] mauijoe: both dvb-apps and mythtv channel scan report tunning failed for all astc channels. lspci sees both of my pchdatv3000 cards. ran modprobe cx8802 and modprobe cx88-dvb just to be sure. Still get tunning failure. What am I missing?
[22:08:18] devinheitmueller: sphery: ok.
[22:08:21] antgel: sphery: in myth, the menus and program guide are so unresponsive unless i'm careful to really tap the arrows lightly
[22:08:37] sphery: iamlindoro: and, yeah, /that's/ the right fix--fix setup to prevent the invalid config--don't try to outthink the user when there's a broken config
[22:08:52] iamlindoro: exactly

[22:09:32] devinheitmueller: Yeah, I see all sorts of room for improvement here.
[22:09:40] sphery: antgel: sending 2 button presses, so when you hit right it goes right, then right (back to where you started)--i.e. in Watch Recordings with some layouts, like default
[22:10:20] iamlindoro: Though I expect the "kernel 2.3.40 or later" requirement will take a long, long, long time for use to convince certain people around here about
[22:10:20] antgel: sphery: even in the programme guide it's crap. let me bring it up on screen so i can explain further, 1 sec
[22:10:26] iamlindoro: er 2.6.40
[22:10:34] devinheitmueller: I really should kill a weekend and just go through *all* my tuners and see what issues there are.
[22:11:00] sphery: antgel: if so, it could be a) configure your remote to support Hulu Desktop with --release and so it's doubling your events or b) invalid toggle bit settings in /etc/lircd.conf or c) invalid gap in /etc/lircrc.conf

[22:11:27] Dagmar: iamlindoro: I dunno. I think that'll solve lots of support problems.
[22:11:56] Dagmar: We just gotta make sure we keep that number higher than the currently released kernel.
[22:12:04] iamlindoro: The odds of us requiring a kernel that is less than two years old are extremely slim
[22:12:15] iamlindoro: (once it were available)
[22:12:32] iamlindoro: Which means having an old manual mode setup and a "new hotness" setup side by side, yuck
[22:12:35] sphery: antgel: your gap should be in the multiple 100K range, so if it's 100000, try changing it to 250000 or even 500000 and see if it helps
[22:12:35] Dagmar: Dude, I don't know if you've noticed, but 2.6.40 is better than just less than two years old.  :)
[22:12:44] iamlindoro: Well aware of that
[22:12:48] Dagmar: It's -90day warez at least
[22:13:00] sphery: antgel: those values won't be right, but you can reduce them after finding that it prevents dups until you find the right setting
[22:13:10] iamlindoro: Projecting out into a theoretical future where UUID per device capability even exists
[22:13:10] antgel: sphery: a) is greek to me, b) and c) i can check

[22:13:52] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: You know you get me all hot and bothered when you talk like that
[22:13:54] devinheitmueller: ... and it will be controlled as a #define, so you can #ifdef in the smarter code.

[22:14:40] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: What is your timeline for the framework, anyway?
[22:14:56] antgel: sphery: okay, in the programme guide, when i press "down" hard, it goes down two channels and stops. is this looking like the gap parameter?
[22:14:58] devinheitmueller: I'm hoping to put something out for review in the next 60 days.
[22:15:15] antgel: sphery: btw, i am using the contrib lircd.conf for my remote *shrug*
[22:15:16] iamlindoro: neat
[22:16:07] devinheitmueller: I actually have a working prototype, but the big problem is because it's a new framework and we're going to have to live with it for a very long time, it has be be extensible enough for future stuff while not being released in 2030.
[22:16:15] antgel: just pressed "down" hard again, this time it went down one channel and stopped. there's no pattern to this behaviour
[22:16:38] iamlindoro: devinheitmueller: sure, I totally understand... better to take your time now than regret it in the future
[22:16:48] sphery: antgel: I'd start with gap--it's the easiest to change/guess
[22:16:57] devinheitmueller: Well, in this context, I'm the gas and Hans is the brake.
[22:17:08] sphery: antgel: remember to restart lircd /and/ your clients when you change /etc/lircd.conf

[22:19:27] tzanger: is there anything in the upnp/media gateway spec that would allow myth to share the cutpoints so I could get commercial skipping with these kinds of frontends?

[22:20:52] iamlindoro: Theoretically the uPnP controlpoint stuff should allow the server the present the user with a minimal interface, and turning on commercial skip is *theoretically* doable too AIUI (but a lot of work that nobody has done yet)
[22:22:06] antgel: sphery: no improvement, worse if anything. should it actually scroll the programme guide down when i hold "down" down?
[22:22:08] mchou: tzanger: where did you get the mg800hd?
[22:22:26] antgel: and i can't find documentation on "gap"
[22:22:31] justinh: antgel: if you run irw how many lines do you see per button press?
[22:22:52] justinh: and it's not gap you want to mess with in lircd.conf it's DELAY and REPEAT
[22:23:09] justinh: delay & repeat in lircrc or .lircrc NOT lircd.conf
[22:23:23] tzanger: mchou: local computer store here, didn't intend on buying it but saw it on the shelf and wondered how good it would do
[22:23:43] tzanger: it does a much better job playing the mpeg2-hd streams that mythtv records than my little am2 frontend
[22:23:48] mchou: tzanger: you didn't go for WD live?
[22:23:51] antgel: justinh: loads of lines as per my pastebin ^^. delay and repeat are currently set to 0
[22:24:20] tzanger: mchou: didn't have one there, and as I said I really wasn't looking for it
[22:24:29] tzanger: iamlindoro: hmm interesting, okay
[22:24:31] mchou: tzanger: ok, fair enough
[22:24:59] tzanger: iamlindoro: so the upnp frontend needs to request commercial skip? can I hack in "always skip" for the backend?
[22:25:28] tzanger: mchou: is the wd live the recommended upnp fronend these days?
[22:25:47] justinh: antgel: so you need to read the lirc docs & experiment with different values :)
[22:25:48] mchou: tzanger: no, just asking is all
[22:26:13] mchou: tzanger: for $120 I dont think that's a bad unit
[22:26:24] tzanger: mchou: indeed, I remember reading about this thing now

[22:27:01] mchou: tzanger: yeah, pretty feature packed....
[22:27:11] tzanger: iamlindoro: interesting... is the upnp spec a fairly straightforward read? I wouldn't mind looking into this a little more
[22:27:22] justinh: iamlindoro: til UPNP lives up the the first word of its name & supports embedded seektables :D
[22:27:47] iamlindoro: tzanger: I haven't read the spec, I just know the basics/named parts, so can't speak to how easy a read it is-- improvements to the server are always welcome, thgouh

[22:28:21] mauijoe: I have a new build of suse 11.2, mythtv .22 and channel tuning fails under both myth and dvb-apps for pchdtv 3000. What to do?
[22:28:24] tzanger: mchou: wdlive isn't 1080p for all formats, at least from my understanding of the spec page. mpeg2 (what I usually play since it's what I record ota) is 1080i
[22:28:33] mchou: tzanger: which isn't necessarily unreasonable
[22:28:42] iamlindoro: tzanger: Mark Kendall has done some work on the uPnp server lately which he has not yet committed, but I think he even had a basic UI going... it might be worth seeing what he has done/how it might interface with anything you might like to do
[22:28:54] justinh: mauijoe: if it doesn't work in dvb-apps you have no chance getting mythtv to work with it
[22:28:55] antgel: repeat = 5, delay = 10 worked well first time! \o/ another snippet for my upcoming blog on "shiznit i had to frick around with to get myth 0.22 running on my hardware"
[22:28:56] tzanger: no it's not :-)
[22:28:58] tzanger: I should take a closer look
[22:29:16] iamlindoro: tzanger: mark_k in #mythtv, usually around in the evenings of North America (he's in Asia)
[22:29:20] tzanger: I'm certainly not in love with the mg800hd it was an impulse buy and a desire to help bring up the WAF of the setup :-)
[22:29:34] tzanger: iamlindoro: excellent, thank you
[22:29:41] tzanger: hell I'm still running a very old svn trunk of myth
[22:29:44] mauijoe: my question is how to get it working. Everything worked fine until I had to rebuild my box because of a HD failure
[22:29:45] mchou: tzanger: how long have you had it?
[22:29:46] tzanger: might be worth an upgrade :-)
[22:29:51] tzanger: mchou: uh... 30 minutes :-)
[22:29:55] mchou: haha
[22:30:03] justinh: mauijoe: first of all look in dmesg for clues
[22:30:08] mchou: that's not enough time to judge
[22:30:21] mauijoe: the box sees the cards and the modules appeare to be loaded
[22:30:26] justinh: check dev nodes are created. see if it's looking to load firmware etc
[22:30:27] tzanger: mchou: absolutely right but if a wdlive is half the price and gives similar performance...
[22:30:42] tzanger: hell $300 can buy an atom sff system that can probably be a real frontend without any playing around with minimyth
[22:30:43] mchou: tzanger: agreed

[23:41:45] Dagmar: You can't mix and match versions
[23:42:22] Dagmar: You can barely deviate between SVN releases. If you're attempting to say, use 0.22 with anythign with 0.21 anything you're out of luck
[23:42:40] mauijoe: don't understand. this is a fresh build for suse from packman's repository
[23:43:06] mauijoe: said .22
[23:43:14] Dagmar: So start the backend first
[23:43:27] Dagmar: ...and then when it errors out, see what it says

[23:45:09] wagnerrp: turns out it just clips horribly when the master alsa volume >90%
[23:45:18] Dagmar: 1. You need to report a problem with the binaries to the people you got them from
[23:45:34] Dagmar: ...or 2. You failed to correctly update both the frontend and the backend.
[23:45:58] Dagmar: You don't get a schema error from the frontend and not the backend. afaik it's fairly impossible

[23:48:37] wagnerrp: Dagmar: i can bring the volume up to painful levels without problems using the physical volume buttons, but that alsa volume just adds all sort of distortion
[23:48:51] Dibblah: Does the frontend have plugins that the backend does not?

[23:50:02] Dibblah: Okay – So, when you run the frontend, please pastebin the full log.
[23:50:45] wagnerrp: why skip the python stuff? i mean youre talking dozens of KB of scripts, compared to a hundred MB source tree
[23:51:20] Dagmar: wagnerrp: That's fun. I've not seen a sound chipset that can overdrive it's own output
[23:51:26] wagnerrp: beyond that, i dont even know how you would get svn to not recurse into a directory
[23:51:39] mauijoe: http://pastebin.com/m29b46b7a
[23:52:28] Dibblah: mauijoe: You (or your distro) has specified that the frontend can't update the schema.
[23:52:33] Dagmar: Did you actually ever fully stop the backend before you did this upgrade?
[23:52:34] Dibblah: Which is somewhat unusual.
[23:52:36] wagnerrp: this is a combo machine? fe and be on one box?
[23:52:42] Dagmar: It's forking impossible, afaik
[23:52:54] Dibblah: Dagmar: It is not.
[23:53:25] Dibblah: It's apparently default.
[23:53:30] mauijoe: fe and be on same box.
[23:53:38] Dibblah: mauijoe: Can you run mythfrontend -u
[23:53:47] Dagmar: Dibblah
[23:53:48] wagnerrp: so theres no chance of having multiple databases
[23:54:00] mauijoe: new install. ran set-up, backend, then frontend
[23:54:09] Dagmar: Dibblah: It's now the default that the backend and frontend expect differing schema versions now?
[23:54:17] Dibblah: Oh god.
[23:54:27] Dibblah: No, the plugins have individual schema versions.
[23:55:02] wagnerrp: but 1214 is the primary database revision from 0.21
[23:55:07] wagnerrp: not one of the plugins
[23:55:15] Dibblah: And the DEFAULT for the frontend (which is the ONLY thing that CAN update the plugin schemas) is NOT TO UPDATE the schema.
[23:55:23] wagnerrp: both mythtv-setup and mythbackend should have attempted a schema update were they actually run
[23:55:24] mauijoe: sweet. -u did the trick
[23:55:34] Dibblah: Thank you.

[23:56:50] Dagmar: mauijoe: So how did you not get the error with the backend before?
[23:56:54] wagnerrp: Dibblah: right, but it was complaining about the primary schema version, not that of one of the plugins
[23:56:59] mauijoe: no
[23:57:10] Dagmar: Oh wait, this is probably why I got no response to the question about the versions and so forth
[23:57:10] mauijoe: The schema version of your existing database is newer than this version of MythTV understands. Please ensure that you have selected the proper database server or upgrade this and all other frontends and backends to the same MythTV version and revision.
[23:57:26] Dagmar: Im' out
[23:57:29] Dibblah: You have an old version of mythbackend.
