[00:02:44] | k_ross: | clever: you said i could just delete /etc/hostname, and it would get it from dhcp, but it doesn't seem to be working. i have this in my dhcpd.conf: host bedroom { hardware ethernet 00:30:18:a0:0f:bc; fixed-address 192.168.1.7; } |
[00:03:10] | clever: | k_ross: that also depends on the code within the initrd |

[00:04:24] | BobLfoot: | error: MythTV is using all input, but there are no active recordings? Nice error myth, but how to resolve? |
[00:05:13] | BobLfoot: | Could not connecto to the master backend server — is it running? Is the IP address set for it in the setup program correct? |
[00:05:16] | k_ross: | i don't have any custom scripts in the initrd, just modified the config file and reran update-initramfs |

[00:05:59] | BobLfoot: | Beats the ??? out of me. I've been reading wiki after wiki but don't have a clue if I'm even close to getting this myth box running |
[00:06:27] | kormoc: | BobLfoot: restart the backend(s)? |

[00:06:47] | clever: | k_ross: i havent dug int how much |
[00:06:55] | BobLfoot: | kormoc: ??restart the backend ?? you mean rerun mythtv setup for the 3rd time? |
[00:07:23] | wagnerrp: | BobLfoot: if you dont know what the backend is, you havent read anythign about mythtv |

[00:07:53] | k_ross: | clever: i removed the hostname from /etc/hosts as well. the only thing in there now is 127.0.0.1 localhost |
[00:08:06] | BobLfoot: | wagnerrp: the backend is the part that runs the video cards and records stuff. I set it up with mythtv setup from the Sound & Video Menu |
[00:08:07] | PaulWay: | wagnerrp: maybe he hasn't even got as far as getting the backend working? |
[00:08:21] | k_ross: | it boots, but "hostname" returns "(none)" |
[00:08:28] | BobLfoot: | It went thru setup and found all my live digital tv channels |
[00:08:32] | clever: | k_ross: sounds like nothing is setting the hostname, at all |
[00:08:34] | wagnerrp: | PaulWay: hes gotten too far without understanding what the 'backend' is |
[00:08:36] | kormoc: | PaulWay: but you have to read the instructions before you can get the backend working... |
[00:08:56] | can20021 (can20021!n=notleyc@5ac2563c.bb.sky.com) has left #mythtv-users () | |
[00:09:01] | clever: | k_ross: you could modify the initrd to allow hostname=foo on the kernel args, and then just set it right in your boot loader |
[00:09:04] | wagnerrp: | BobLfoot: did you subsequently RUN the backend? |
[00:09:04] | kormoc: | BobLfoot: great, and now it's time to read up about the bit that actually does all the work and get it working |
[00:09:26] | wagnerrp: | if you didnt run it, then it is not running, hence the 'cannot connect to backend' error |
[00:09:48] | BobLfoot: | And which set of instruction would that be? the ones based for FC6 which jhaven't been updated in ages. or the ones that want me to break my package managed system. |
[00:10:08] | ** kormoc laughs ** | |
[00:10:14] | kormoc: | Well, if you want to be like that... |
[00:10:20] | wagnerrp: | BobLfoot: generally if youre running FC6, the only instruction we will give you here is 'upgrade' |
[00:10:31] | kormoc: | So how's the holiday been folks? |
[00:10:47] | k_ross: | clever: not using ubuntu, using debian testing |
[00:11:17] | clever: | k_ross: yeah, thats why it might not be working, and why you might need to add your own bit |
[00:11:26] | wagnerrp: | BobLfoot: you can either follow the official instructions, do a source install, and break compatibility with your package manager |
[00:11:42] | wagnerrp: | or you can follow your distros instructions to continue using the package manager |
[00:11:54] | BobLfoot: | Ah section 9.2 post install on this page http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-9.html#ss9.1 &md ash; looks like I have more reading to do |
[00:11:55] | wagnerrp: | if your distro is so old as to not provide a new version of mythtv with it, then you need to upgrade |
[00:11:59] | wagnerrp: | its as simple as that |
[00:12:34] | BobLfoot: | wagnerrp: I'm using F12 and If I get myth working was going to try rawhide |
[00:12:47] | kormoc: | wagnerrp: he was just complaining that http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Installing_MythTV_on_Fedora doesn't cover f12 (even tho it does) |
[00:13:23] | clever: | k_ross: read the code for update-initramfs and see where it gets the core files, and edit em |
[00:13:45] | k_ross: | clever: that's exactly what i'm trying to find |
[00:14:05] | clever: | /usr/sbin/update-initramfs: POSIX shell script text executable |
[00:14:55] | BobLfoot: | mythbackend command issues from a $ prompt – takes how long to complete? |
[00:14:57] | clever: | it runs mkinitramfs to do the actual work |
[00:15:09] | kormoc: | it will never complete, as that's not how you are to run it |
[00:15:25] | PaulWay: | BobLfoot: it's a daemon – runs forever. |
[00:15:35] | PaulWay: | Start it from the init scripts (e.g. service mythbackend start) |
[00:16:02] | BobLfoot: | funny the command in the wiki http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-9.html#ss9.1 shows $ mythbackend |
[00:16:21] | wagnerrp: | thats because those are the official instructions |
[00:16:28] | kormoc: | funny that it's not a wiki |
[00:16:39] | wagnerrp: | the ones that assume you are doing everything manually |
[00:16:49] | wagnerrp: | rather than through some distro with a package manager and init scripts |
[00:17:00] | kormoc: | and running it on a persistent terminal that you can nohup |

[01:40:30] | sphery: | drose_: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Channel_tuning |
[01:40:37] | drose_: | And.. has syone had similar problems with a dviuco fusion dual digital (zarlink chipset) |
[01:40:39] | drose_: | thanks |
[01:41:09] | sphery: | and for digital tuning all of the information used by Myth is pulled from the stream, so if the broadcaster isn't telling us how to properly tune the channel... |
[01:41:23] | wagnerrp: | sphery: do you even use mythvideo? |
[01:41:29] | sphery: | wagnerrp: no, not really. |
[01:41:48] | sphery: | that was a joke based on what the e-mail announcement said |

[01:42:28] | [R]: | does anyone else notice the time is cutoff in terra?? |
[01:42:33] | [R]: | s/??/?/ |
[01:42:49] | sphery: | [R]: I'll bet that people who have chosen shorter time/date formats don't notice |
[01:43:00] | sphery: | [R]: also, Terra is designed to use Arial |
[01:43:05] | [R]: | how can you get shorter than "Sat Dec 26 6:43 PM" |
[01:43:07] | [R]: | sphery: i have that font |
[01:43:18] | sphery: | some distros believe that Arial is an evil font owned by an evil empire, so they refuse to let users use it |
[01:43:38] | sphery: | and they have font replacement rules that substitute (the /much/ wider) DejaVu Sans for Arial |
[01:43:44] | [R]: | hrm |
[01:43:52] | [R]: | how can i tell if its actually using Arial then? |
[01:43:56] | [R]: | its most defintely installed |

[01:44:19] | [R]: | i'm pretty sure before i installed it it was really screwy |
[01:44:50] | sphery: | then it may just be the date format you chose is much longer than the one that gb ee was designing the theme to use |
[01:45:15] | sphery: | date/time formats, that is |
[01:45:25] | [R]: | how can you get shorter than "Sat Dec 26 6:43 PM" |
[01:45:30] | sphery: | anyway, should be relatively easy to patch (at least locally) |
[01:46:04] | [R]: | yeah |
[01:46:06] | [R]: | i did fix it |
[01:46:12] | iamlindoro: | [R], by choosing one which doesn't display the day of the week, like 12/26/09, etc. |
[01:46:20] | [R]: | i fixed the xml, but then didnt back it up and lost my cahnges |
[01:46:40] | [R]: | iamlindoro: mm... lemme try |
[01:46:46] | sphery: | h:mm is shorter than h:mm AP |

[01:47:01] | sphery: | h:mm ap is probably shorter |
[01:47:36] | sphery: | but if that's cutting with only one digit in the hour, it will definitely cut when there are 2 |
[01:47:51] | [R]: | why is there "Guide Language #1" and "Guide Language #2"... how would it display 2 languages? |
[01:48:11] | iamlindoro: | numerous european locales that broadcast multiple guide languages |
[01:48:21] | iamlindoro: | so you get to put a preference so that there's a fallback |
[01:48:26] | [R]: | oh... interesting |
[01:49:06] | iamlindoro: | though it's not clear, those same preferences also set up which order the audio tracks are chosen in where supported |

[03:13:51] | bllzz: | oh wait... |
[03:13:59] | bllzz: | maybe that won't work over ssh for some strange reason? |
[03:14:26] | bllzz: | that's very strange.... it works in vnc but not over an ssh terminal ... ah well |

[03:24:05] | bllzz: | Ok here's my verbose mythfrontend log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/347385/ As a reminder, the problem is that my playback on livetv and mythvideo is faster than it should be. It's like watching the show on a mild fastforward (with audio) |
[03:24:12] | bllzz: | any help is greatly appreciated |
[03:26:39] | danlench: | J-e-f-f-A: that makes sense. i'm only using/need stereo anyway. does/can myth set the output method for dvd or should it be in a pc setting? |
[03:26:44] | bllzz: | actually, here's a more complete log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/347388/ |
[03:28:01] | danlench: | my dvd is set to internal |
[03:28:11] | J-e-f-f-A: | danlench: I think you'll have to mess around with ALSA to configure it to downmix 5.1 to "Sterio" – But I haven't done it myself... I once 'cheated' and just used a cheap USB 2-channel sound card to get around the issue... |
[03:29:25] | J-e-f-f-A: | bllzz: An MPEG4 AVI is "Live TV"? |
[03:29:52] | bllzz: | J-e-f-f-A: no, in this isntance I only tried to play an avi file in mythvideo |
[03:29:59] | bllzz: | but the same problem occurs with livetv |
[03:30:54] | danlench: | J-e-f-f-A: everything was working fine until i upgraded, now i have this sound issue and dvd importing is mucked. i actually had to hose my install and start over. well practice makes perfect (and headaches) |
[03:32:30] | J-e-f-f-A: | danlench: Yeah – dvd importing may just bhe the fault of increased 'security' on dvds by manufacturers – they seem to be doing more things to prevent ripping – ie: invalid file tables, etc. Things that if you just 'play' the DVD don't get referenced, but if you try to rip it, it sees as errors and blows up... |
[03:33:52] | danlench: | J-e-f-f-A: also, my "Max Audio Channels" is Stereo and upmix is set to Passive. well with the dvd, it won't even retrieve the names anymore |

[03:42:56] | wagnerrp: | Arpman: your frontend logs should tell you why |
[03:44:04] | Arpman: | wagnerrp: Ok – call me a newb (I am) – where are the logs...? |
[03:44:39] | Arpman: | ah – /var/logs/mythtv...? |
[03:44:52] | wagnerrp: | depends on how you called mythfrontend |
[03:45:11] | wagnerrp: | if its not in /var/logs/mythtv/, its likely you have no frontend logs |
[03:45:51] | Arpman: | Its a staright Mythbuntu install...(tired of messing around in BSD – so went with a livecd...) |
[03:46:30] | devicenull: | what happened to the video manager in mythvideo? |

[03:50:57] | wagnerrp: | Arpman: if you are using ISOs, you must use local file access, you cannot use storage groups |
[03:51:13] | wagnerrp: | BobLfoot: it looks in '~/.mythtv/lircrc' |
[03:51:23] | wagnerrp: | if there is no file there, myth does not listen to lircd |
[03:51:26] | Arpman: | no such file or directory – but its an .iso (and the DVD is /dev/dvd1..... hmmmm.... |
[03:51:42] | Arpman: | really – no storage groups? |
[03:51:49] | wagnerrp: | Arpman: no storage groups |
[03:52:01] | wagnerrp: | the DVD code requires block access to the files |
[03:52:03] | Arpman: | I think thats the way mythbuntu is default config |
[03:52:11] | wagnerrp: | and currently, the storage group code does not provide for that |

[03:53:19] | wagnerrp: | storage groups are something defined in mythtv-setup and accessed by the backend |
[03:53:39] | wagnerrp: | local access are folders defined in the mythvideo setup in mythfrontend, and access directly by mythvideo |
[03:54:14] | Arpman: | backend = SG ; Frontend = local acces.... |
[03:54:34] | BobLfoot: | wagnerrp: I now have a ~/.mythtv/lircrc file and still no remote function do I need to restart the backend for this to work? |

[03:56:30] | achandra: | i am able to access it just fine and scroll through it. But when i click "OK", it takes me to a menu about recording. Is there a quick way to simply select the show and i can just watch it ...or do I need to type in the channel each time? |
[03:56:55] | achandra: | wondering if the keymap for this is not correct, and if not where i should change it? |
[03:57:00] | [R]: | why would myth be saying "failed to save" on the channel icons |

[04:02:48] | Arpman: | wagnerrp – I was just gonna chane the SG localation to be../SG/.. or would it be better just to delete them? |
[04:02:59] | achandra: | using mythbuntu, and a mce remote...any time i go to channel guide and pick a show, i get menu about recording instead of going to the show itself, I want the latter behavior...how do i get it do so? |
[04:03:00] | Arpman: | incase I wanted to stream... |
[04:03:07] | wagnerrp: | Arpman: use 'd' to delete each |
[04:03:17] | wagnerrp: | BobLfoot: i cant find the page on the wiki im looking for |
[04:03:25] | wagnerrp: | but you have no directional keys mapped |
[04:03:41] | wagnerrp: | myth has a minimum set of buttons you must have mapped to function properly |
[04:03:59] | wagnerrp: | those include the directional keys, enter, m, i, and escape |
[04:04:02] | wagnerrp: | there may be one or two others |
[04:04:21] | wagnerrp: | achandra: you asked that just 8 minutes ago, have some patience |
[04:04:35] | BobLfoot: | wagnerrp: OK back to the salt mine of mapping my remote unless you know where there is an rc-6 template |
[04:04:47] | wagnerrp: | rc-6? |
[04:05:10] | achandra: | wagnerrp, no worries...tried to rephrase, because I thought it was perhaps poorly worded....will show better patience ;) |
[04:05:36] | achandra: | wagnerrp, thanks again for help in past...ive been using myth in 1080 for a week now, and works well |
[04:05:38] | wagnerrp: | achandra: no, i know exactly what you mean |
[04:05:43] | wagnerrp: | ive seen the same behavior |
[04:05:45] | BobLfoot: | wagnerrp: the irrecord utility used on http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-8.html identifies the remote as an RC-6 remote. |
[04:05:56] | wagnerrp: | but i never use livetv, so ive not bothered to figure out the proper way to do it |

[05:18:52] | wagnerrp: | qwertydamus: as it says... 'libfaad.so: cannot open shared object file' |
[05:19:04] | wagnerrp: | mythtv uses libfaad for external AAC decoding |
[05:19:12] | wagnerrp: | due to some deficiencies in the ffmpeg decoders |

[05:20:42] | wagnerrp: | BobLfoot: if irw works, and mythtv doesnt with that config, i dont know what to tell you |
[05:20:53] | wagnerrp: | is it possible youre pulling the file from a different location than you think? |
[05:21:07] | wagnerrp: | mythtv pulls from ~/.mythtv/lircrc |
[05:21:18] | wagnerrp: | meaning it pulls from the the user directory |
[05:21:28] | wagnerrp: | if youre running as a different user, it will be in a different directory |
[05:23:49] | BobLfoot: | not switching users – irw |
[05:24:16] | wagnerrp: | irw does not use any config file, it just dumps raw signals from lirfcd |
[05:24:17] | BobLfoot: | should irw give connection refused when lirc is running |
[05:24:22] | wagnerrp: | no |
[05:24:39] | Arpman: | why does th eInternal player display 2 copies of the data (on on top of each other) from my iso? aspectratio? |
[05:25:09] | k_ross: | BobLfoot: did you configure myth with the correct socket path? /dev/lircd or /var/run/lirc <something or another>... |
[05:26:12] | BobLfoot: | k_ross: I've tried /dev/lircd and /dev/lirc0 — any idea what the correct setting is for F12? |
[05:26:52] | k_ross: | lircd is the one you want myth to use. lirc0 is the device file for communicating from the kernel module to the lirc daemon |
[05:28:15] | BobLfoot: | k_ross: /dev/lircd does not exist on my F12 system only /dev/lirc0 |
[05:28:44] | k_ross: | look under /var/run/lirc...something |
[05:28:44] | k_ross: | (or is it /var/lib) ? |

[05:32:42] | BobLfoot: | Eureka – It works sort of. Channelup does a jump back and volume doesn't work but volume down does. SO I've some reteaching to do. |
[05:33:14] | k_ross: | cool. sounds like you're on the right track |
[05:33:47] | k_ross: | but the lircrc and lircd.conf files you posted looked reasonable |
[05:34:12] | k_ross: | but i'm sure you'll get it working now that myth sees the remote |
[05:35:12] | BobLfoot: | k_ross: the biggest issue is it takes 4 or 5 tries for irrecord to see the toggle bit otherwise you ahve to do a -f forced record |
[05:37:59] | k_ross: | you said irw works correctly, right? |
[05:38:44] | BobLfoot: | k_ross: irw works correctly for the most part. Some keys don't seem to register but irrecord saw them. |

[05:44:39] | k_ross: | maybe there's a non-numeric character in the channel number. a period perhaps? |
[05:44:50] | k_ross: | or a space before the 709? |

[06:01:44] | [R]: | yeah, i have a few channels thare are 0/0 |
[06:01:47] | [R]: | so it must not be used for tuning |

[06:09:12] | achandra: | anyone got the "select" working in the channel guide? — mine apparently goes into recording options. --posted up about an hour ago on same topic |
[06:09:32] | [R]: | achandra: there is an option in the settings for 'seelct tunes' or something like that |
[06:10:15] | achandra: | [R], is that in the key bindings? |
[06:10:24] | [R]: | achandra: no, its in the guide] |
[06:11:59] | achandra: | [R], only options in utilities/setup i have are for music tools, video manager, edit keys, and then setup again |
[06:12:09] | [R]: | look harder |
[06:12:12] | [R]: | there is one for guide |
[06:12:16] | [R]: | just like there is one for appearance |
[06:12:24] | [R]: | (which you didnt' name) |
[06:16:26] | k_ross: | hmm, i too am having a hard time finding it. it isn't on the program guide settings page |
[06:17:53] | [R]: | hrm, maye they got rid of it |
[06:18:00] | [R]: | achandra: are you on NOW or in the future? |
[06:18:40] | k_ross: | maybe, but on my system hitting select on the program guide goes to that channel, rather than bringing up the recording screen |
[06:19:02] | k_ross: | the setting is still used, but they jsut got rid of the UI for it? |
[06:19:32] | achandra: | [R}, got it figured out....thank you! |
[06:19:50] | achandra: | [R]^^ thanks |
[06:20:45] | [R]: | wtf, sometimes my swap turns on... and sometimes it doesn't |
[06:21:31] | k_ross: | achandra: where was the setting? |
[06:22:39] | achandra: | k_ross, exactly where [R] had said, in tv settings, then program guide....it was just tough to see becaus my toshiba widescreen was blocking the checkbox...i played with the select via keyboard, and got it working |
[06:22:48] | achandra: | k_ross, just as advertised ;) |
[06:22:58] | k_ross: | what theme are you using? it isn't in mine :( |
[06:23:12] | achandra: | k_ross, the standard mythbuntu one.. |
[06:23:23] | achandra: | k_ross, which distro? |
[06:24:22] | achandra: | k_ross, utilities/setup -> setup > Tv settings > Program Guide |
[06:25:00] | k_ross: | yes i have the setup screen, just not the option to enable selecting the channel instead of bringing up the recording screen. i remember it used to be there |
[06:25:48] | k_ross: | page 1 i have "display genre colors", "display the channel icons", and "show the program guide when starting live tv" |
[06:26:07] | achandra: | k_ross, "Use Select to change channel in the program guide" option |
[06:26:21] | k_ross: | i don't have that option |
[06:26:24] | k_ross: | :( |
[06:26:28] | achandra: | hit next |
[06:26:47] | [R]: | achandra: are you on myth 21 or 22? |
[06:26:52] | achandra: | 22 |
[06:27:11] | k_ross: | on page 2 is "what to call unknown programs", "what category to give unknown programs", "guide starts at channel", "record threshold", and "allow channel jumping in guide" |
[06:28:31] | achandra: | as [R] indicates perhaps a 0.22 difference? dunno about 0.21 |
[06:28:38] | k_ross: | i have .22 |
[06:28:54] | achandra: | which distro? — or does the theme make a diff? |
[06:29:00] | [R]: | the theme shoudln't matter |
[06:29:08] | [R]: | i dont have it either ethough |
[06:29:24] | achandra: | in mythbuntu it appears with no issues |
[06:29:45] | k_ross: | not using mythbuntu. debian testing with myth built from source |
[06:30:28] | achandra: | hmmm perhaps build difference? (grasping here..for a good answer) |
[06:34:16] | achandra: | [R], any thoughts on getting mythgame to work properly? — read through the guides pretty well with minimal success of getting mames to work. |
[06:34:32] | [R]: | achandra: huh? |
[06:34:35] | [R]: | where did that come from? |
[06:34:50] | achandra: | [R], on to next task ;) |
[06:35:18] | [R]: | if you have an actual question... ask it |

[06:41:17] | k_ross: | mdean removed the "use select to change channel" option on 2009-11–13 in r22824 |
[06:41:43] | k_ross: | i guess it's the default now |
[06:41:47] | [R]: | how close to 0.22 release was that? |
[06:41:52] | [R]: | cuz mythbuntu by default uses an rc |
[06:43:12] | k_ross: | 0.22 release was on 2009-11–06 |
[06:43:44] | [R]: | well then its in -fixes, and if achandra hasn't updated... tahs why he has it and we don't |
[06:43:56] | k_ross: | right |
[06:44:53] | k_ross: | that explains it |
[06:45:47] | achandra: | k_ross, so at this point, it appears that feature is important enough to me to have it...before upgrading. Is the feature in the next release included? or should I file a bugzilla? |
[06:46:26] | k_ross: | apparently hitting select in the program guide will change to that channel, and you don't have a choice about it now |

[07:52:30] | waxhead: | any suggestions for prolblems with an upgrade not recording files? |
[07:52:53] | waxhead: | I have the storagegroups setup and Default is pointing to the right place, permissions are correct.. |
[07:53:03] | [R]: | waxhead: what error is showing up in the backend log |
[07:54:32] | waxhead: | [R], I'm getting a constant error that it can't delete files /GetPlayBackURL/UNABLE/TO/FIND/LOCAL/FILE/ON/medicantre/1008_ and the date |
[07:54:54] | waxhead: | which might be a real problem since the recordings disk is 100%.. so if it can't delete it can't record... |
[07:55:11] | [R]: | well the behavior is undefined |
[07:55:13] | [R]: | if the disk is full |
[07:55:19] | waxhead: | it's scanning the videos directory file |
[07:55:24] | [R]: | you really can't run myth like that |
[07:55:31] | waxhead: | so manually delete the files? |
[07:55:38] | waxhead: | I thought myth would clean up what it needed... |
[07:55:55] | [R]: | well somewhere something got screwed up |
[07:55:57] | waxhead: | this disk has been at nearly 100% for over a year |
[07:56:10] | waxhead: | myth just sorts it out.. normally.. |
[07:56:32] | waxhead: | so the upgrade hasn't gone to plan? |

[07:59:53] | waxhead: | oh.. here's the rror Error: GetPlaybackURL: 'filename' should be local, but it can not be found. |
[08:01:42] | [R]: | well myth expects the file to be there |
[08:01:43] | [R]: | and its not |
[08:01:48] | [R]: | so its just shitting on itself |
[08:02:01] | waxhead: | but why isn't it seeing the file in the right path? |
[08:02:27] | waxhead: | I've setup the Default to be /mnt/recordings/ so why doesn' it look there? |
[08:03:42] | [R]: | i dunno, somewhere you scrweed something up |
[08:03:56] | waxhead: | yeah I know that much... |
[08:04:18] | waxhead: | hmm.. do I need to set something to tell it which storage group to use when recording??? |
[08:05:45] | [R]: | it uses the 'Default' storage group for recordings |
[08:07:40] | waxhead: | which is set correctly |
[08:08:09] | k_ross: | you can setup myth so it leaves a little more space on the hard drive, so it won't fill it up. go to settings->tv settings->general, then on page 2, adjust the "extra space" parameter |
[08:08:33] | waxhead: | k_ross, is that on the frontend settings? |
[08:08:42] | k_ross: | waxhead: yes |
[08:12:27] | waxhead: | it was set to 1 gig.. I've changed that to 10 for now |
[08:13:00] | waxhead: | that still doesn't explain why it can't find the files on the file system |
[08:14:55] | [R]: | it gets that error hwne it records? |
[08:15:18] | [R]: | it'll get that error |
[08:15:20] | waxhead: | hmm.. the hostnames are just their short names, not their FQDN, should I set them all back to just local host? |
[08:15:24] | [R]: | if it thinks a file exists |
[08:15:30] | [R]: | but it doesnt and it tries to expire it |
[08:15:35] | [R]: | then it never removes it from the db |
[08:15:42] | [R]: | but you said it does exist |

[10:56:57] | Artus36: | and what does it use? |
[10:57:05] | [R]: | alsa |

[11:52:18] | waxhead: | I've got a lot of entries in the various tables with "OLDHOSTNAME" in the hostname field... |

[11:56:02] | oobe: | you could try replacing the hostname's with sed if they are unique enough before restoring the sql dump |
[11:57:11] | oobe: | or if you mean you already restored the sql dump then you should be able to change the host name from inside mythtv |
[11:57:47] | waxhead: | oobe, already restored the db a while back |
[11:58:09] | waxhead: | problem has been with some niggles with recordings not being found etc... |
[11:58:29] | waxhead: | looking at the settings table a loft of entries have a hostname of 'OLDHOSTNAME' |
[11:58:31] | oobe: | what are the hostname's |
[11:58:48] | waxhead: | only one really a single master/front end |
[12:00:22] | oobe: | this is what i think might be easy " a bit hacky though" dump your current database to an sql file then sed -i 's/oldhostname/newhostname/g' dump.sql |

[12:01:49] | waxhead: | ok... I'll try that... |
[12:03:28] | waxhead: | could I get away with only doing it to the settings table? |
[12:04:06] | oobe: | i havent test that so be careful and take it with a grain of salt |
[12:04:33] | oobe: | what your old hostname and new hostname |
[12:04:44] | waxhead: | yeah... |
[12:04:50] | oobe: | reason i ask is you dont want to replace other instances of that word |
[12:04:51] | waxhead: | just update the table |
[12:05:18] | oobe: | like i said what are the hostnames |
[12:05:42] | oobe: | if they are unique enough then you could easily do the whole database |
[12:05:59] | waxhead: | update settings set hostname = 'mediacentre' where hostname = 'OLDHOSTNAME'; should do it? |
[12:06:26] | oobe: | i dont know |
[12:06:36] | oobe: | im not a sql expert |
[12:06:55] | oobe: | my advice was completly different to what u are trying |

[12:56:33] | justinh: | waxhead: what you got? their names & addresses – you put out a hit? |

[12:57:31] | waxhead: | justinh, yeah.. it won't stop. :) |

[12:58:16] | hein1908: | lircd seems to work fine, "irw" shows all the keys when I press one on the remote |

[14:48:38] | thefRont: | hey there... |
[14:49:29] | thefRont: | I live in germany and I've just bought a HDHomeRun. It works great when manually tuning to channels via the hdhomerun_config tool but I have problems setting it up in mythtv |
[14:50:07] | MrD_: | I wonder if anyone here can talk a bit about live preview in 0.22. I read on the mailing list that it doesn't exist; but when I go to the EPG from live TV, the preview box briefly flashes a scaled version of the full-screen image. |
[14:50:17] | thefRont: | german dvb-t uses t8qam16 for modulation but mythtv only allows me to use 8-VSB, QAM64, QAM128 and QAM256 |
[14:50:38] | thefRont: | how can I modify mythtv-setup to allow QAM16 as well? |
[14:50:54] | thefRont: | which is obviously supported by HDHomeRun |
[14:51:14] | oobe: | MrD_, live preview used to be animated as in it would play motion preview image scaled down but it got delayed when they made .22 cause they re wrote the UI |
[14:51:41] | thefRont: | btw, I'm using mythtv 0.21 |
[14:51:59] | MrD_: | OK oobe; so what is the scaled image that I'm seeing (briefly) in the EPG screen? |
[14:52:21] | oobe: | it should just be a screenshot |
[14:52:36] | oobe: | if it appears breifly then disappears then somthing is wrong |
[14:53:31] | MrD_: | oobe: cool. Yes, something is wrong. I've therefore been messing with themes, trying to figure out what is overlaying the screenshot with opaque something or other. |
[14:55:40] | MrD_: | Oobe: I use a VIA openchrome system, 800MHz. It sometimes works with an FFMPEG renderer – which doesn't fix this screenshot thing. |
[14:56:03] | justinh: | sounds like a broken video driver |
[14:56:25] | MrD_: | justinh: Ha! Openchrome broken??? Surely not... |
[14:57:13] | oobe: | you can mess with settings for preview images in tv settings / playback settings / page 4 |
[15:00:18] | MrD_: | oobe: what doi you suggest? There are three settings: "generate from bookmark" (checked); "Display live preview" (unchecked at the moment); and "Use hardware accel" (was checked, just tried it unchecked, no change). |
[15:00:57] | oobe: | MrD_, sorry i can suggest anything as all variations appear to work on my nox |
[15:01:01] | oobe: | *box |
[15:01:30] | oobe: | i was merely saying what i knew would affect the settings possibly in a positive way |
[15:01:39] | MrD_: | Thanks oobe. It's useful just to know that it works for you. |
[15:02:34] | MrD_: | So on 0.22 I *should* be able to get a static preview image in the EPG screen. |
[15:03:06] | MrD_: | I guess I'll take that as my goal for now. |
[15:03:10] | oobe: | i just enabled HW acceleration to test and that seems to of speeded image's up |
[15:03:16] | thefRont: | so noone has an idea? |
[15:03:27] | oobe: | i also have generate from bookmark checked which is how i know |

[15:06:34] | oobe: | MrD_, try running mythfrontend -v all |
[15:07:07] | oobe: | this is what i get http://pastebin.ca/1728486 |
[15:07:29] | oobe: | thefRont, i lost you as soon as you said german sorry |
[15:08:11] | thefRont: | I just said germany because we use QAM16 here |
[15:08:21] | MrD_: | OK, I'll try verbose all oobe. |
[15:08:49] | thefRont: | but I can't set mythtv-setup to QAM16, just QAM64, QAM128, QAM256 and 8-VSB |
[15:09:07] | oobe: | its a bit difficault to find what ur looking for those as it spews out many irrelevant messages too |
[15:09:24] | thefRont: | I wonder if I can at least set it to AUTO which should work as well |
[15:09:55] | oobe: | thefRont, a lot of people have trouble scanning in .22 now but you said your using .21 |
[15:10:04] | thefRont: | yep |
[15:10:24] | oobe: | i really dont see why you cant get it to scan QAM16 |
[15:10:42] | oobe: | have you tried testing the device with dvb-utils |
[15:11:00] | thefRont: | it's a network tuner. can't test is with dvb-utils |
[15:11:14] | thefRont: | but I tested it with hdhomerun_config and it can tune perfectly with that |
[15:12:38] | oobe: | oh sorry i forot it was hdhomerun |
[15:13:10] | oobe: | i didnt relise hdhomerun made dvb-t models now |
[15:14:24] | thefRont: | here is a sample of a scan log from hdhomerun_config |

[17:46:09] | BobLfoot: | I have an interesting problem. I setup mythtv on the box which contains my tuner card and it works well. I used address 127.0.0.1 for both local backend, masterbackend and the IP entry in the frontend. |
[17:47:50] | BobLfoot: | Once running I changed the IP in the local and master backend to the ip of the machine 192.168.2.201. restarted mysql and mythbackend. But I cannot watch tv when I set the frontend to 192.168.2.201 it still only works at 127.0.0.1, Selinux is permissive and firewall is open on 3306, 6654 and 6653. |
[17:48:04] | BobLfoot: | what am I missing? |
[17:49:33] | whiteley_: | oobe: I can't find the setting "avoid conflict between livetv and scheduled". |
[17:49:46] | whiteley_: | oobe: that is on BE setup, I assume (I'm on 0.22) |
[17:50:17] | oobe: | no its in the frontend |

[17:57:28] | oobe: | BobLfoot, check /etc/mythtv/mysql.txt and ~/.mythtv/config.xml all have the ip address also make sure you have set it in mythtv-setup section 1 page 1 |
[18:03:39] | whiteley_: | I can't get my transcode jobs to run. I do have "enable transcode jobs" selected in BE setup. What else do I need to do? |
[18:04:02] | MartinJT: | quick question... just had to change the mixer volume using the amixer command (via ssh), now I can't get rid of the volume control on the display... |
[18:04:37] | MartinJT: | I'm on on mythbuntu 9.10 |
[18:05:24] | oobe: | whiteley_, you need to setup transcoding profiles and enable them in the frontend too |
[18:05:34] | oobe: | i cant remember all the details |
[18:06:20] | whiteley_: | oobe: when I schedule recordings, I do check transcode, and select a quality. Is that what you refer to? |
[18:08:11] | BobLfoot: | oobe: DBHostName=localhost does that need to change to the Ip Address? |
[18:08:27] | oobe: | yes it does need to change to the ip |
[18:09:56] | wagnerrp: | whiteley_: the problem with digital tuners and livetv is that they have something called 'multirec' |
[18:10:10] | wagnerrp: | you have multiple tuners listed for each physical tuner |
[18:10:30] | wagnerrp: | so when livetv starts up with a recording, you will use the second virtual tuner on the same physical tuner as the recording |
[18:10:39] | wagnerrp: | preventing you from tuning off the same multiplex as the recording |

[18:11:25] | wagnerrp: | analog tuning/capture is not supported on that card under linux |
[18:11:51] | wagnerrp: | whiteley_: rather you told it to use the last tuner in the list, not the unused physical tuner |
[18:12:09] | wagnerrp: | the last tuner in the list just happens to be on the unused physical tuner |
[18:13:09] | whiteley_: | wagnerrp: "Avoid conflicts between live TV and scheduled shows — If enabled, live TV will choose a tuner card that is less likely to have scheduled recordings rather than the best card available." |
[18:13:21] | wagnerrp: | right, thats what it says |
[18:13:31] | wagnerrp: | it does that by choosing the last tuner in the list |
[18:13:49] | wagnerrp: | while recordings are scheduled starting from the first available tuner in the list |
[18:14:02] | wagnerrp: | there is no intelligence behind it |
[18:14:17] | whiteley_: | that's too bad, although it should take care of the problem most of the time. |
[18:14:18] | wagnerrp: | thats why it says 'less likely' |

[18:40:46] | wagnerrp: | however the guides, and most distros, expect that you will |
[18:41:07] | wagnerrp: | im thinking fedora might be running everything as root |
[18:41:47] | BobLfoot: | wagnerrp: no I am running as user Bob and trying to get the system to run with the box's IP rather than as localhost so I can get a frontend on another F12 box to connect and operate. |
[18:42:29] | wagnerrp: | why arent you using your init scripts to run mythbackend? |
[18:43:31] | BobLfoot: | wagnerrp: mythbackend is started at init, but it was configured with localhost or 127.0.0.1 as the ip and all runs well locally. |
[18:43:49] | wagnerrp: | the init script has nothing to do with the IP |
[18:43:56] | wagnerrp: | that is a setting mythbackend pulls from the database |
[18:44:13] | BobLfoot: | I need to change it to run with IP 192.168.2.201 so that other frontend from my LAN can access the backend. |
[18:44:26] | wagnerrp: | correct, so you change it in mythtv-setup |
[18:44:33] | wagnerrp: | and then run mythbackend as you normally would |
[18:44:40] | wagnerrp: | using your system's init scripts |

[18:46:23] | ope: | hi |
[18:47:01] | BobLfoot: | wagnerrp: getting an error from mythtvsetup : no UPnP backends found? |
[18:47:29] | wagnerrp: | thats fine, youre not currently running a backend that would be broadcasting over upnp |
[18:47:57] | wagnerrp: | unless youre running mythtv-setup as a user other than that which runs mythbackend |
[18:48:14] | wagnerrp: | in which case you will have to enter the necessary database credentials |
[18:48:19] | ope: | following http://paste.pocoo.org/show/159974/ there should be the message about idle, since the 120s are over. The problem is, there is no shutdown after this idle time. Any ideas what happens here? |
[18:48:21] | BobLfoot: | And after changing the IP I get Cannot login to database? Error popup |
[18:48:27] | wagnerrp: | mythtv-setup should always be run as the user who runs mythbackend |
[18:49:53] | Dagmar: | BobLfoot: That should suprise you why? |
[18:51:07] | foxbuntu: | BobLfoot, what Dagmar means to say is, the system is dependent on the IP, ensure it is set correctly in mythtv-setup and mythfrontend in the general settings |
[18:51:56] | Dagmar: | What I'm saying is that access controls in mysql are defined by *both* the username and the IP address the connection is coming from. |
[18:52:06] | Dagmar: | Just look at the grants table. |
[18:52:13] | Dagmar: | show grants; |
[18:52:16] | BobLfoot: | Dagmar: wagnerrp – let's backup a little. I had a complete and working mythtv setup on this box, provided I use 127.0.0.1 as the ip in setups. Now I changed it in the two places if mythtv setup and in the frontend and nothing works. How do I debug what is wrong? |
[18:52:43] | Dagmar: | You've probably got a rule for 'mythtv'@'127.0.0.1' |
[18:53:02] | BobLfoot: | Give me a couple of mintues and I'll reset what's been changed so everything works locally. |
[18:53:30] | Dagmar: | I'm pretty sure the acl in mysql is for localhost only still |
[18:53:57] | Dagmar: | It's one of the more common show-stoppers for people who're splitting their mythtv setup across multiple boxes for the first time |

[18:56:54] | BobLfoot: | OK – All specified IP locations in both Backend and Frontend are 127.0.0.1 and I'm plesently watching KC and CIN in a 0–0 3rd and 11 play |
[18:57:57] | BobLfoot: | So now logically I should change the three IP locations in Front and Backend to the Box IP first? Right? |
[18:58:52] | wagnerrp: | the backend needs routable IPs for both the local backend IP and master backend IP |
[18:59:01] | wagnerrp: | the database IP can be 127.0.0.1 |
[18:59:13] | wagnerrp: | the frontend needs a routable IP for the database IP |
[18:59:17] | wagnerrp: | and it has no other settings |
[19:00:03] | ope: | are some well known problems here regards to the shutdown on idle? |
[19:01:25] | BobLfoot: | Ran Mythtv-setup from gui drop down menu and it prompted to stop the backend. I then changed the IP for local backend and master backend to Boxes IP 192.168.2.201. |
[19:01:56] | BobLfoot: | Front End Still Works |
[19:02:46] | BobLfoot: | So do I or do I not change the local frontend IP or deosn't it matter? |
[19:03:04] | wagnerrp: | there is no local frontend ip |
[19:03:14] | wagnerrp: | as nothing has to connect to it, mythtv doesnt care where it is |
[19:04:22] | BobLfoot: | wagnerrp: I go mythfrontend ; Utilities/setup / setup / general and it asks for a database IP . Thsi to me is the frontend IP. Does it need to be anything special? |
[19:04:55] | wagnerrp: | it is NOT the frontend ip |
[19:04:58] | wagnerrp: | it is the database ip |
[19:05:04] | wagnerrp: | the ip of the machine hosting the mysql database |
[19:05:29] | Dagmar: | That's why it says "database IP" |
[19:06:10] | BobLfoot: | Ah ha – and it works when set to 127.0.0.1 but crashes and burns when set to 192.168.2.201 the Ip of the box hosting the mysql database. |
[19:06:21] | Dagmar: | ope: The "well-known problem" is that people expect it to work without them doing anything to set it up |
[19:06:41] | wagnerrp: | the backend works with 127.0.0.1, the frontend fails when using the routable IP |
[19:06:44] | Dagmar: | ...followed closely by "operating system pieces weren't setup by the user" |

[19:07:22] | ope: | following http://paste.pocoo.org/show/159974/ there should be the message about idle, since the 120s are over. The problem is, there is no shutdown after this idle time. |

[19:07:39] | ope: | no message |
[19:07:41] | wagnerrp: | Dagmar: yeah, someone mentioned they started drying up a couple weeks ago |
[19:07:45] | wagnerrp: | wonder what the reason is |
[19:08:41] | Dagmar: | I know if I can't find one for sale before tomorrow I'll just be calling Hauppauge and asking WTF |
[19:08:57] | BobLfoot: | So do I misunderstand something, but If I can't get the "local" frontend to work using a routable Database IP ; there's no hope for "remote" fronends to succeed. right? |
[19:09:33] | wagnerrp: | if you cannot get the local frontend to work using a routeable (non-loopback) ip, the problem is likely the one Dagmar mentioned above |
[19:09:42] | wagnerrp: | <Dagmar> You've probably got a rule for 'mythtv'@'127.0.0.1' |
[19:10:13] | wagnerrp: | that means your database has only given permissions to the localhost ip, you need to grant permissions for all machines that need to connect to the database |
[19:10:30] | sphery: | ope: http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/7752 perhaps |
[19:11:19] | wagnerrp: | Dagmar: if youve got a Frys nearby, they have them in-store |
[19:11:43] | BobLfoot: | wagnerrp: mysql noob here ; I followed http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-6.html#ss6.2 to get this far and am not sure whre to find the rules you mention or how to edit them. Where would I read about that? |

[19:13:36] | ope: | ticket 7752 seems related to. But I've not got the message I'm idle now. |
[19:13:45] | BobLfoot: | the first command mysql -u root mythconverg fails Access Denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) |
[19:14:04] | wagnerrp: | so give it your password |
[19:14:29] | sphery: | ope: if you're not getting the messages you see in the logs on #7752, I'd guess it's something else (like, perhaps you have a time-to-not-shutdown-after-initial-wakeup specified) |
[19:14:30] | wagnerrp: | if you dont know your password, there are guides on the internet explaining how to reset a mysql password |
[19:14:49] | [R]: | wagnerrp: so my myth system is 100%... its totally awesome (well... except for the fact that i run out of ram on my diskless system and have to use network swap) |
[19:15:33] | wagnerrp: | [R]: careful using a swap file over NFS |
[19:15:37] | wagnerrp: | it is known to cause problems |
[19:15:39] | [R]: | wagnerrp: its not nfs |
[19:15:41] | [R]: | nbd |
[19:15:44] | wagnerrp: | ah |
[19:15:55] | Dagmar: | Whaaa... |
[19:16:03] | Dagmar: | *whew* |
[19:16:13] | Dagmar: | I thought for a moment there someone might be putting swap onto a remote disk |
[19:16:17] | [R]: | grrr... i'm watching this auction for RAM... and it ends at 7 in the morning... grrr |
[19:16:29] | [R]: | Dagmar: thats what i'm doing... |
[19:16:29] | wagnerrp: | i actually recall something about my system outright refusing to mount a swap block over NFS |
[19:16:49] | Dagmar: | [R]: Dont' do that, man. It's very, very bad. |
[19:17:07] | ope: | sphery: how/where to check it? time-to-not-shutdown-after-initial-wakeup specified |
[19:17:11] | wagnerrp: | it should be fine with NBD... slow, but otherwise fine |
[19:17:17] | Dagmar: | If the network goes away for ANY REASON it'll have about the same effect as if you just reached in and yanked out a stick of RAM |
[19:17:20] | wagnerrp: | of course if your network goes down, youre hosed |
[19:17:23] | [R]: | Dagmar: i have no options... i have no ram |
[19:17:27] | Dagmar: | The crash will merely take a few seconds longer to happen |

[19:17:53] | sphery: | ope: I don't know. I don't currently use the shutdown features. |
[19:17:54] | [R]: | then i OOM |
[19:18:09] | Dagmar: | Yeah well, you have fun with that when it goes explody-boom them |
[19:18:16] | [R]: | i know its a bad situation |
[19:18:25] | [R]: | thats why i'm watching this ram auction |
[19:18:32] | [R]: | for now it works... its not a long term solution |
[19:19:51] | BobLfoot: | wagnerrp: sorry to be such a pain but my.cnf makes no mention of bind-address in it's present state. Do I need to add a bind-address=192.168.2.201 line to the file? |
[19:20:23] | Dagmar: | No. |
[19:20:52] | BobLfoot: | thanks Dagmar |
[19:21:21] | wagnerrp: | [R]: i do something very similar, ive got 2GB of swap at the head of my iSCSI disks for the OOM issues |
[19:21:43] | [R]: | i'm very surprised the system works at all |
[19:22:00] | [R]: | everywhere i've read says ION *REQUIRES* 2gb of system ram to allocated 512 to the gpu |
[19:22:07] | [R]: | but it seems to be working just fine with only 1gb |
[19:22:22] | wagnerrp: | i figure if i drop connection and lose swap, ive lost the rest of the disk anyway and i cant do any harm |

[19:23:11] | [R]: | well what i love about my setup... my root is a read-only image |
[19:23:19] | [R]: | so i can just shut the power and reset it |
[19:23:25] | [R]: | and clean up anything bad in my read-write overlay |
[19:23:52] | ope: | ok, reschedule requested;will wait agin 120s |
[19:23:58] | wagnerrp: | i just have an initial image, and a read-only overlay |
[19:24:01] | irresponse: | Sorry for the english. I need 1 TV capture card in the server (backend) for each frontend that i will to use? |
[19:24:25] | wagnerrp: | i duplicate a new image and boot into it, pull in the overlay, and reboot into the now differentiated system |
[19:24:29] | [R]: | irresponse: you need 1 capture card for every independent tv you want to watch |
[19:24:43] | wagnerrp: | ive got three different systems running off the same initial image, and a handful of config files |
[19:24:44] | [R]: | irresponse: if you have 3 frontends and 1 tuner... you can watch/record 1 thing and watch 2 already recorded things |
[19:24:59] | [R]: | irresponse: idependent tv "stream" |
[19:25:21] | irresponse: | [R]: thanks, i got it |
[19:25:27] | wagnerrp: | Dagmar: ive got one site thats actually listing new stock will be in on the 2nd |
[19:25:42] | [R]: | irresponse: and then if you are on a system with digital multiplexes... you can watch/record 2 things on the same multiplex with 1 card |
[19:25:56] | Dagmar: | wagnerrp: Yeah, screw them, too. I want it NAO |
[19:26:16] | wagnerrp: | this one still appears to be in stock... http://3btech.net/hahdpvrhide7html |
[19:26:21] | Dagmar: | I'm trying to get the bloody thing in before the 1st so I can for the first time watch Doctor Who on release day without doing anything "fancy" |
[19:26:24] | irresponse: | other thing, hauppage cards are PCI, right? what new mobo will have 3 PCI's slots (at minimum?) |
[19:26:36] | wagnerrp: | assuming they actually have a system in place to list as out of stock |
[19:26:38] | wagnerrp: | thats questionable |
[19:26:45] | BobLfoot: | wagnerrp: Dagmar oobe and any others I might miss – Thanks the remote frontend is now working awesome. Thanks a bunch guys. YOur patience with a mysql and myth newb is appreciated. |
[19:26:54] | Dagmar: | Yeah I'm walking the Froogle list reading reviews to find out |

[19:27:59] | wagnerrp: | heh... dont trust your old athlon to manage? |
[19:28:11] | wagnerrp: | you have a 4850, right? |

[19:28:43] | oobe: | BobLfoot, i dont remember helping but thanks for thanking us all |
[19:28:48] | wagnerrp: | ive only seen model 1212 |
[19:29:00] | Dagmar: | 1219 is a 1212 with a _french_ manual. |
[19:29:06] | Dagmar: | Already been down that road |
[19:29:17] | [R]: | is that really the only differnece? |
[19:29:27] | [R]: | wagnerrp: where are you seeing it? cuz i thought everyone was out of stock |
[19:29:33] | Dagmar: | My gaming machines have 4850e's. My Myth box (after looking because I coudln't remember) has a Athlon 64 3200+ |
[19:29:52] | wagnerrp: | [R]: only site ive found not listed as OOS is the one i linked to above |
[19:30:02] | wagnerrp: | but its very possible they dont even have an OOS mechanism |
[19:30:26] | [R]: | i love it when i watch prices and things are higher than what i paid |
[19:30:27] | Dagmar: | [R]: the site he's looking at is probably the same one I was that has both the 1212 and the 1219. One of the review commenters explained they called Hauppauge to find out, and I already dug around elsewhere |
[19:30:51] | [R]: | wagnerrp: dell has it for 240 aparently |
[19:30:53] | irresponse: | i will use ASROCK nettops without HD's for 3 frontends, and a powerfull machine in the backend, for work not only for MythTV, but also how NAS, firewall, torrent, etc etc. All my questions are about this backend, the hardware needed |
[19:30:54] | Dagmar: | wagnerrp: Yeah with the price they're showing I'm just assuming they're out of stock . They have a number to call to find out |
[19:30:58] | Dagmar: | It's closed today. |
[19:31:06] | [R]: | Dagmar: thats what i've read... but it just seems so stupid |
[19:31:12] | wagnerrp: | http://www.electronicsdirectusa.com/product/HAUPHDPVR |
[19:31:27] | Dagmar: | They've also got a little blurb on the bottom of their page about "Paying for 2nd day shipping DOES NOT guarantee 2-day delivery. Call to check availability blah blah blah" |
[19:31:33] | wagnerrp: | although i wouldnt buy from them on principle alone |

[19:50:00] | wagnerrp: | when youre in livetv, in the EPG, and you scroll down to a new channel |
[19:50:06] | wagnerrp: | how do you select to watch that new channel |
[19:50:15] | [R]: | wagnerrp: just hit select |
[19:50:17] | wagnerrp: | since the standard ok/enter button brings up the record menu |
[19:50:20] | sphery: | [R]: may also be affected by the osd's mythui conversion |

[19:51:07] | [R]: | select changes channel was changed in -fixes |
[19:51:13] | [R]: | before that it was an option that defaulted off |
[19:51:18] | sphery: | if you select a show that is currently airing or starts within a <setting> time (by default 16min), it changes channel |
[19:51:26] | wagnerrp: | ah |

[21:33:56] | PiousMinion: | [R]: so this so-called "quality" is really "perceived quality" ... "if" you sit at a dsitance? |
[21:33:59] | wagnerrp: | or youre getting piss poor bitrates on your content |
[21:34:03] | [R]: | BobLfoot: what does the linuxtv website say about your card? |
[21:34:08] | [R]: | BobLfoot: some cards the analog side isn't supported |
[21:34:28] | [R]: | PiousMinion: anything is gonna look like crap if you look at something 1 inch away |

[21:57:23] | Cyrexion: | control RF devices (lights) |
[21:57:32] | [R]: | Cyrexion: you mean like x10? |
[21:57:44] | freakwent2: | also, I seem to have no support for optical media; there's no menu item for optical disks on this new install. Is that a compile-time option? I'm on gentoo. |
[21:57:44] | wagnerrp: | x10, but radio controlled, rather than powerline |
[21:57:51] | Cyrexion: | yes, exactly... but something I can program via linux |
[21:57:53] | ** freakwent2 braces for derisive laughter ** | |
[21:57:54] | [R]: | freakwent2: you need mythvideo |
[21:57:59] | [R]: | Cyrexion: lots of people use x10 in linux |
[21:58:07] | AndyCap: | Cyrexion: what is in the other end? |
[21:58:11] | wagnerrp: | freakwent2: mythtv does not natively support optical disks, like [R] said, you need mythvideo or mythmusic |
[21:58:22] | freakwent2: | okay thaks! |
[21:58:25] | AndyCap: | Cyrexion: sure you can get gnu radio, but that's expensive and complicated. :) |
[21:58:30] | freakwent2: | any ideas about the screensize? |
[21:58:32] | AndyCap: | and overkill. :P |
[21:58:45] | [R]: | AndyCap: i once looked into gnu radio |
[21:58:59] | [R]: | AndyCap: but then the guys at my work would REALLY make fun of me |
[21:59:06] | [R]: | (i work on software defined radios at work) |
[21:59:07] | AndyCap: | [R]: hopefully not for blinking the lights at home. :P |
[21:59:33] | AndyCap: | [R]: heh, why would they, it's not that bad even though it's state of the art |
[21:59:51] | [R]: | AndyCap: they think its weird that computers is my hobby when i work on them all day at work |
[22:00:20] | [R]: | of course this one hardware guy that makes fun of me has 2 fpga dev boards on his desk at home... so what does he know |
[22:00:22] | AndyCap: | [R]: hah, then they shouldn't be dissing gnuradio if they only have it as a dayjob. :) |
[22:00:25] | Cyrexion: | I have a RF controlled ceiling fan... ideally, I would like to "learn" of the RF signals that the remote uses to control the lights in the fan (on, off, dim)... and basically have my linux box (mythbox) control the lights |
[22:00:40] | AndyCap: | [R]: heh I was going to ask if any of them were radio amateurs or something. :) |
[22:01:06] | [R]: | this one guy used to be a ham... but hes just in system test... not engineering |
[22:01:24] | AndyCap: | Cyrexion: Well. do you know what frequency it uses. |
[22:01:50] | Cyrexion: | the exact numerical frequency? not off-hand, but I can do some research |
[22:01:54] | k_ross: | BobLfoot: here's the V4L page for your card, just for reference: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV-HVR-1800 |
[22:02:08] | AndyCap: | Cyrexion: you could look at the fcc approval for the remote I guess. |
[22:02:56] | k_ross: | at least i think that's your card. does it look like it, physically? |
[22:03:05] | AndyCap: | Cyrexion: and I'm sure some people have done stuff in the area earlier. I do know telldus.se makes a 433 mhz transmitter for a few remote light switches. and there was another kit for receiving and transmitting mentioned here earlier. |
[22:03:18] | AndyCap: | Cyrexion: rfxcom I think |

[22:34:12] | wagnerrp: | PiousMinion: because its a framegrabber |
[22:34:35] | PiousMinion: | wagnerrp: which means? |

[22:42:25] | PiousMinion: | [R]: checking |
[22:42:35] | freakwent2: | on my myth install, when I run the frontend, it takes up ~ 3/4 of the screen from the TR corener leaving Xorg in the background. |
[22:42:37] | MTughan_: | We're trying to get a Hauppauge HVR-2250 running with MythTV 0.22 (Mythbuntu 9.10). We got the SAA7164 driver up and a DVB card detected, but MythTV isn't detecting any ATSC channels. Is there something we missed? |
[22:43:02] | [R]: | freakwent2: sounds like you told it to run in a window |
[22:43:03] | freakwent2: | MTughan_ the areial? |
[22:43:12] | freakwent2: | lololol |
[22:43:15] | wagnerrp: | freakwent2: in the menu in that dialog with the 'black triangles', there is a option to reset |
[22:43:17] | MTughan_: | freakwent2: Works with a separate tuner connected directly to the TV fine. |
[22:43:35] | freakwent2: | srsly try dvbscan (or scandvb) to see if you can get channels that way. |
[22:43:59] | freakwent2: | if you get a working channels.conf you can use vlc to test reception seperate from anything mythy |
[22:44:26] | freakwent2: | [R] there's no 'window dressing' so I don't think so, that's why I called it an overlay. |
[22:44:42] | wagnerrp: | freakwent2: reset myth's render size |
[22:44:53] | freakwent2: | wagnerrp how? |
[22:44:56] | wagnerrp: | see above |
[22:45:03] | freakwent2: | ok from the menu, ty |
[22:45:25] | freakwent2: | now all I need is freenx running and today's problems are all fixed.... |
[22:47:43] | thefRont: | oobe: mythtv 0.22 fully supports the hdhomerun |
[22:48:07] | thefRont: | tuning worked with that version. now I have to try to get mythtv 0.22 running on my ubuntu 8.04 installation ;) |
[22:48:27] | wagnerrp: | (or you need to upgrade your 8.04 installation) |
[22:48:39] | thefRont: | err, 8.10 |
[22:49:03] | thefRont: | well, I won't upgrade to 9.10 until it's working properly |
[22:49:15] | thefRont: | 9.10 still has too many bugs |

[22:50:01] | [R]: | i dont know why so many people complain about 9.10 |

[22:50:32] | PiousMinion: | \I've never had ubuntu work properly on the multitude of PCs I've attempted. |
[22:50:52] | [R]: | lol |
[22:50:52] | wagnerrp: | ive never even used mythbuntu, and its caused me problems |
[22:50:58] | PiousMinion: | hehe |
[22:51:01] | AndyCap: | [R]: out of tree drivers and 2.6.31? |
[22:51:12] | MTughan_: | freakwent2: Well, dvbscan/scan apparently needs an initial tuning data, which we don't have. |
[22:51:13] | [R]: | only reason i'm using mythbuntu is it makes it stupid easy to do net booting |
[22:51:17] | [R]: | AndyCap: huh? |
[22:51:18] | wagnerrp: | (some bug in the python bindings that only exhibited itself in mythbuntu) |
[22:51:35] | AndyCap: | [R]: that's what I've seen people complaing about with the new ubuntu. |
[22:51:40] | thefRont: | I've installed it on my mac mini. 8.10 worked perfectly on it. with 9.10 I can't get it to use the resolution of my screen, and the apple wireless keyboard doesn't work as well |
[22:51:44] | [R]: | AndyCap: huh? |
[22:51:49] | thefRont: | although it worked in 8.10 |
[22:52:03] | AndyCap: | [R]: I dunno though since I don't use it myself. |
[22:52:25] | AndyCap: | [R]: but people using cards with drivers not in mainline got into trouble. |
