[00:00:29] oobe: i just finished testing a perl script that captures hulu vids
[00:00:36] oobe: works well
[00:00:56] iamlindoro: oobe, Are you trying to get kicked?
[00:01:09] oobe: no
[00:01:25] iamlindoro: a) You're not anywhere it's legal to view Hulu, b) what you describe above is illegal
[00:01:29] iamlindoro: so you're just stupid, then?
[00:01:34] wagnerrp: so Uwe Boll is suing some 2000 people for downloading Far Cry over bittorrent
[00:01:46] iamlindoro: You've managed to go this long in ehre without getting it through your skull that theft = ban?
[00:02:08] wagnerrp: i say we need to file a class action suit against him, for soiling treasured gaming memories
[00:02:33] wagnerrp: im sure we could somehow pin emotional trauma and therapy fees on him

[01:41:23] beav_35: anyone?
[01:42:28] sphery: bad file permiissions?
[01:42:31] wagnerrp: it failed to delete the file, because the backend told it the delete failed
[01:42:36] wagnerrp: which could be for one of two reasons
[01:42:47] wagnerrp: either the backend does not have file permission to delete the file
[01:42:55] wagnerrp: or the file does not exist to be deleted
[01:43:07] beav_35: the file does exist
[01:43:18] beav_35: i will check what the permissions are
[01:44:28] beav_35: the file has 777
[01:45:35] beav_35: is that all it needs?
[01:47:13] wagnerrp: check your backend logs to see why the delete failed

[02:23:18] plut0: any idea how to fix this? "Protocol version check failure. The response to MYTH_PROTO_VERSION was empty" frontend is different from the backend
[02:23:51] wagnerrp: something other than a functioning backend is listening on port 6543
[02:24:18] plut0: backend is working fine, trying to add a new frontend
[02:24:34] plut0: never done this before
[02:24:49] plut0: always had the frontend and backend on the same machine
[02:26:35] iamlindoro: your frontend and backend are different versions. They need to match.
[02:27:03] wagnerrp: yeah, but the fact that there was no response from the backend means something bad
[02:27:14] wagnerrp: you said youre trying to add a new, remote frontend?
[02:27:31] plut0: they probably are different versions
[02:27:40] wagnerrp: have you updated recently?
[02:28:10] plut0: backend is gentoo, frontend is ubuntu
[02:28:14] sphery: plut0: or your frontend is unable to connect to the backend
[02:28:27] sphery: plut0: post full logs--chances are the real error is elsewhere

[02:31:23] wagnerrp: youre connecting to something
[02:31:29] plut0: i can telnet to the port
[02:31:29] wagnerrp: but that something is not a functional backend
[02:31:33] sphery: make sure you have set proper master backend IP address and that you've specified the Security PIN properly
[02:31:50] plut0: i assure the backend is working fine, has been for 5+ years
[02:32:06] sphery: but it's not configured fine
[02:32:09] sphery: I assure you of that
[02:32:10] wagnerrp: .... HOSTNAME INSTEAD OF IP! HOSTNAME INSTEAD OF IP
[02:32:10] tbone0: thanks guys! Just wondering before i splash the cash.
[02:32:27] plut0: what do you want me to do?
[02:32:28] sphery: tbone0: soon isn't in the plan, though :)
[02:32:52] sphery: plut0: make sure you have set proper master backend IP address
[02:32:52] wagnerrp: you remember that place in mythtv-setup, where it asked for the address of the backend
[02:32:56] sphery: you know, where you put the hostname
[02:32:58] wagnerrp: so you put the hostname, twice?
[02:33:24] plut0: yes
[02:33:45] wagnerrp: well... when it said 'IP', it really meant 'IP or any other network identifier you wish'
[02:33:50] wagnerrp: erm...
[02:33:51] sphery: make sure you have set proper master backend IP address
[02:34:02] wagnerrp: not that big long string

[02:34:31] wagnerrp: it needs to be an IP, and not some other identifier like a hostname
[02:34:32] iamlindoro: does
[02:34:33] iamlindoro: not
[02:34:34] iamlindoro: matter
[02:34:41] sphery: make sure you have set proper master backend IP address
[02:34:41] iamlindoro: please don't make all these nice people argue with you
[02:34:43] plut0: IP isn't working either
[02:34:51] wagnerrp: have you restarted the backend?
[02:35:01] iamlindoro: if you have changed to IPs, let's see the logs
[02:35:04] sphery: all frontends and backends, really
[02:35:12] sphery: need restarting, that is
[02:35:13] plut0: k i'll post log again hold on
[02:35:22] tbone0: sphery: yeah thats fine, I am a patient man. If you guys were like f amd and it basically was no interest by the developers, then I might not get it.
[02:35:41] wagnerrp: tbone0: its not that there is no interest
[02:35:48] plut0: http://pastebin.com/n1qUN5hH
[02:35:50] wagnerrp: its more than AMD has been talking about this for several years
[02:36:00] wagnerrp: and only in the past couple months actually delivered on the goods
[02:36:18] tbone0: oh i know it wagner.
[02:36:53] wagnerrp: plut0: and you have restarted the backend, so that it is now actually listening on a valid IP?
[02:37:01] tbone0: It must be the smell of money that got there rumps in gear
[02:37:08] wagnerrp: prior to trying to access it from the frontend?
[02:37:22] plut0: wagnerrp: why do i need to restart the backend?
[02:37:32] beav_35: When I try to delete files from mythvideo it still says "failed to delete file". can someone help me with this?
[02:37:33] wagnerrp: because your gave it a bad setting

[02:37:55] wagnerrp: it doesnt think it is the master backend
[02:38:07] wagnerrp: so it is stuck in a loop trying to connect to itself as the master, and failing
[02:38:17] wagnerrp: and will not become active until it does connect to the master
[02:38:18] sphery: tbone0: as long as patience means, "I'm buying a computer with a properly-chosen CPU to be able to do software decoding of all the material that I want to watch, and I am willing to live with all the issues in the ATI driver that make the ATI card which 'has surpassed nvidia' less functional than an nvidia card because my desire to use ATI is stronger than my desire to get a DVR working quickly and easily"

[02:38:52] wagnerrp: were not just trying to screw with you when we tell you that you need to restart various processes to get it to work
[02:38:57] plut0: wagnerrp: you lost me, do you want me to restart the backend on my frontend?
[02:38:59] ScumBag: I'm having a problem with Miro, I'm sure this isn't the place but I have to start somewhere. I can't download feeds from ezrss in Miro, but I can open them in Firefox with no problems.
[02:39:15] wagnerrp: hold on for a second
[02:39:26] iamlindoro: ScumBag, are you asking about miro, or mirobridge?
[02:39:29] wagnerrp: youre not trying to run a separate backend and/or database on your remote frontend are you?
[02:39:31] sphery: tbone0: (That said, I like ATI/AMD. Just want you to be properly warned. IMHO, their proprietary drivers are useless, and the FOSS drivers make the card into a framebuffer on steroids.)
[02:39:36] ScumBag: Sorry, Miro
[02:39:42] iamlindoro: ScumBag, actually, scratch that, we won't help you here because we don't want to help you be a thief

[02:39:46] plut0: wagnerrp: i'm trying to add a frontend on another pc
[02:40:07] jamesd_laptop: i am glad i am not a antenna specialist... after reading various sites on how to improve tv reception, turns out that that the best place for my antenna is lower, and closer to my computers and just about every other major source of interference in the room... and only one antenna not two....
[02:40:11] wagnerrp: and the only thing youre trying to run on the remote pc is 'mythfrontend', correct?
[02:40:17] ScumBag: Good one, thanks for the help.
[02:40:17] plut0: wagnerrp: yes
[02:40:22] wagnerrp: ok
[02:40:34] iamlindoro: That's all the help you'll get here, I promise
[02:40:41] sphery: plut0: did you set the security PIN properly?
[02:40:47] wagnerrp: you ran mythtv-setup on the machine running the backend, and changed those two fields into the IP of that machine?
[02:40:49] plut0: probably not
[02:41:02] wagnerrp: sphery: only matters if it doesnt already know the address of the database
[02:41:10] tbone0: sphery: lol, yes i know. But, that said I like where the open source drivers are going, just going to be a couple years for them to catch up on 10 generations of hardware
[02:41:16] plut0: sphery: whats the PIN for?
[02:41:25] wagnerrp: UPNP autodetection of the backend
[02:41:32] sphery: wagnerrp: the one that prevents connections does, unless I"m completely mistaken
[02:41:37] plut0: wagnerrp: i'd have to check the backend
[02:41:39] sphery: if you have it set to blank, no one can connect
[02:41:48] plut0: so i need to set a PIN?
[02:41:54] k-man: how's .23 coming along?
[02:42:07] wagnerrp: sphery: if you set it to nothing, it just wont broadcast over UPNP
[02:42:10] wagnerrp: plut0: no, you dont

[02:42:45] wagnerrp: plut0: where did you run mythtv-setup, to fix the address of the backend?

[02:47:10] plut0: ok its working now
[02:47:36] tbone0: like have there own developers, submit patches,etc..
[02:48:01] plut0: ran mythtv-setup on the backend, reconfigured for local net IP instead of localhost
[02:48:02] sphery: wagnerrp: then maybe I just needed it so MythWeb would work
[02:48:15] plut0: frontend can connect fine now
[02:48:15] sphery: but still, it should be set to something non-blank if you have more than one system
[02:48:30] plut0: wagnerrp: thanks for the help
[02:52:03] sphery: tbone0: Don't know if any of the patches have been submitted by their people (though, really, you could say that a /huge/ amount of code was written by nvidia devs...). We have gotten mention in the change logs for their drivers before ("Fixes <whatever> which is required by MythTV..." type things).

[03:00:13] wagnerrp: lets see if i can rig that together...
[03:00:13] sphery: unfortunately, though, the current setup isn't designed to give any kind of feedback
[03:00:33] wagnerrp: theres no error popups?
[03:00:53] sphery: easiest approach would be just pushing them back to the text box and maybe making an error appear
[03:00:53] wagnerrp: i figured i would check if it were an ip
[03:01:00] sphery: though that's not very nice of a UI design
[03:01:14] wagnerrp: if not, try to do a lookup, and replace the hostname with the ip
[03:01:23] wagnerrp: and if not, throw up a popup like the frontend has
[03:01:24] sphery: might be able to do more, but I think it will all have to be Qt-based (since IIRC, you can't put mythui on top of Qt)
[03:01:49] wagnerrp: i didnt realize mythtv-setup was straight Qt
[03:02:07] sphery: we should just rewrite it into mythui like a certain someone basically did, already

[05:36:17] clever: recording groups dont effect which drive the files go to, so the shows wont need there own disk
[05:36:42] tbone0: huh didn't even know about recording groups
[05:37:10] clever: under the info menu, you can also change existing recordings (one by one) to any group
[05:37:23] clever: livetv and un-delete also use them
[05:40:59] tbone0: thanks man, these are some good ideas that I will assimilate.
[05:42:24] clever: if you want a list of all files in a group, for copying to external media, its the 'recgroup' field on recorded
[05:42:53] clever: you might be able to copy just those rows (in recorded) to a seperate 'mythtv network' (backend and mysqld), and then copy the files over also
[05:43:23] clever: and copy the matching rows from recordedmarkup (i think) to get the comm flag marks
[05:46:10] clever: could all be done with 2 calls to mysqldump

[06:56:24] jstenback: justinh: hey there, I figured out that my stuttering video/audio is not mythtv's fault
[06:56:54] justinh: cool. what is it then? updates to X or ...?
[06:57:00] jstenback: justinh: not sure what it is yet, but I suspect the nvidia driver, as it was upgraded since my last working minimyth build
[06:57:15] jstenback: justinh: won't know until tomorrow if it's that or not, but I'll keep you posted
[06:57:16] justinh: when I had my epia frontend & was using minimyth I'd often run into issues like that
[06:57:29] jstenback: good to know...
[06:57:41] jstenback: I've been lucky I guess, until now
[06:57:43] justinh: that, coupled with the myriad config file changes almost every update – it had to go
[06:58:11] justinh: see, building minimyth on a 1Ghz CPU wasn't on my to-do list ;)
[06:58:26] justinh: not even a *real* 1GHz CPU at that
[06:58:31] jstenback: justinh: heh, it wouldn't have been on mine either :)
[06:58:59] justinh: have to say though, I'm the furthest behind mythtv releases I've ever been
[06:59:22] justinh: my backend is still on ubuntu 8.04 fgs
[06:59:25] jstenback: what are you running?

[06:59:44] justinh: frontend is mythbuntu hacked out of all recognition
[06:59:46] jstenback: oh, heh, yeah... it's been a while then :)
[07:00:05] justinh: yeah well, I fell out of love with tinkering & it just works
[07:00:16] justinh: if it ain't broke...
[07:00:18] jstenback: fair enough
[07:00:27] jstenback: true, true
[07:00:36] justinh: the backend is overdue its replacement though
[07:01:46] justinh: the fans are whining loudly now & I've got a nice new box ready to replace it. Once I a) buy an auto fan speed controller b) finish my 'concept' theme c) transfer some cabling to the cupboard under the stairway
[07:02:26] justinh: my cctv dvr needs to move there too. I'm losing my 'computer' room. it has to be converted into a nursery by july
[07:02:51] wagnerrp: any free basement/attic space?
[07:02:59] jstenback: ah, yeah, that sounds like a good reason to move stuff around :)
[07:03:04] justinh: no basement. we have a crawl space
[07:03:15] justinh: attic.. I wouldn't put a nice new computer up there
[07:03:48] justinh: way too dusty, plus access is a pain even with the new loft ladder I put in the other weekend
[07:04:20] wagnerrp: so this was a office, not just a 'computer room'
[07:04:35] justinh: office/studio/workspace
[07:05:01] justinh: hardly used it since I got my laptop
[07:05:15] justinh: course we can't lose the guest room... ooo no ;)
[07:05:30] wagnerrp: i think of 'computer room' as somewhere to put servers/switches/network gear/other assorted hardware i dont need frequent access to
[07:05:32] jstenback: :)
[07:06:07] justinh: I'd love to convert the loft, but that seems to involve new beams.. which involves replacing the roof (might as well)
[07:06:08] jstenback: I'm building a shed with gigabit network to it, just sayin'
[07:06:50] jstenback: I plan to not hear my servers any more
[07:06:58] justinh: the current roof is 1900s slate I think. some weird plaster junk on the underside which flakes off.. that's where the dust & junk comes from
[07:07:16] jstenback: sounds like fun
[07:07:20] wagnerrp: jstenback: thats what the corner of my basement is for
[07:07:23] justinh: I *could* board it out & build a mini-room up there but...
[07:07:23] poodyp (poodyp!~poodyp@m310436d0.tmodns.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[07:07:59] justinh: when there's already a more accessible space downstairs, well enough away from everything.. why not just use that ;-)
[07:08:14] jstenback: wagnerrp: if I had a basement, I'd use it. Right now my servers are in a storage attic (all sheetrocked), but it's way too hot up there in the summers
[07:08:23] justinh: with the advantage that it's close enough to the livingroom the backend could become the frontend too :)
[07:08:23] jstenback: thus the shed :)
[07:09:08] justinh: though get this.. my wife is in love with the little box under the telly.. when it goes it'll leave a gap
[07:09:34] justinh: she actually *wants* a box under the TV. heh
[07:09:42] wagnerrp: yeah, that corner in the basement just happens to be right under the tv
[07:09:53] justinh: not so she can shove discs in it.. we hardly ever do that nowadays
[07:10:11] justinh: I could probably build a floor box & put stuff in the crawl space
[07:10:19] justinh: but it's nasty down there too
[07:11:11] justinh: there's a good 2 feet under the floor.. hey maybe if I dug we could have a basement after all :D
[07:11:17] justinh: (joking)
[07:11:31] wagnerrp: why does windows want to restart
[07:11:38] wagnerrp: i could have sworn i turned off auto-update
[07:11:53] justinh: do you want to restart now? (I'll ask again in 5 minutes)
[07:12:00] justinh: I hate those
[07:12:24] jstenback: and if you happen to not be looking then, I'll just restart for you
[07:12:25] wagnerrp: the worst part is i cant login using my usb keyboard
[07:12:31] wagnerrp: (god knows why that is screwed up)
[07:12:48] justinh: one day you might be able to just restart services instead of rebooting.. like on a real OS
[07:12:52] wagnerrp: so i wake up, sit down at my computer to find it at the login screen
[07:13:10] wagnerrp: and have to restart it again to get it to recognize my ps2 keyboard
[07:13:19] justinh: gah freenx has pooped its pants
[07:14:12] wagnerrp: justinh: i was actually surprised the first time i reinstalled the nvidia drivers and it DIDNT make me restart
[07:14:34] wagnerrp: it was magical
[07:15:23] justinh: I wouldn't be surprised if you could technically get away with not rebooting for most things in windows if only the programmers were less lazy

[07:36:59] wagnerrp: in the middle of some video game

[07:37:22] justinh: wagnerrp: yay! :-\
[07:37:22] Jester05: haha wagnerrp
[07:37:36] clever: wagnerrp: ive had it do that some days, every 15 minutes it asks

[07:43:38] justinh: when you have no ties or responsibilities it's not so hard to make snap decisions about jobs ;)
[07:43:39] Jester05: so $60k straight out of school is great for ohio money
[07:43:52] Jester05: exactly
[07:43:54] Cap_J_L_Picard: clever: you don't, doesn't stop reboot being M$s prefered method for developers to use...

[07:44:05] Jester05: I want out of here.. put me in the mountains somewhere lol

[07:44:33] clever: Cap_J_L_Picard: 99% of the updates in linux dont need a reboot, and you can even patch the running kernel with some risky methods
[07:44:43] justinh: in the UK you're lucky to make £40 if you have a degree
[07:44:43] clever: Cap_J_L_Picard: yeah, ive manualy stoped services all the time
[07:44:50] justinh: £40k I mean
[07:44:57] justinh: that's middle-management wage
[07:45:04] Jester05: well $60k is pretty damn good for starting pay here in ohio
[07:45:13] wagnerrp: justinh: thats engineering
[07:45:17] Jester05: that'd be working ~50hrs / week
[07:45:19] Cap_J_L_Picard: clever: the only time windows should need a reboot is for drivers loading into the kernel (because they don't have proper module loading...)
[07:45:29] justinh: wagnerrp: pretty much the same in anything here
[07:45:40] wagnerrp: starting pay for an undergrad engineer will be $35-$60k, depending on the field
[07:45:46] justinh: !
[07:46:03] Cap_J_L_Picard: clever: They fixed that with the audio and video drivers in vista and windows 7... But it's not easy to realise...
[07:46:06] Jester05: note I also owe $90k in student loans
[07:46:12] wagnerrp: masters engineer will be +$10-$15k
[07:46:25] clever: Cap_J_L_Picard: i think there are still ways to load kernel code at run time
[07:46:33] ** wagnerrp will be off scott free **
[07:46:36] justinh: guy I know with a Phd is only on about £25k
[07:46:47] wagnerrp: no loan sharks coming after me!
[07:46:54] wagnerrp: justinh: as what?
[07:46:57] clever: Cap_J_L_Picard: there must be atleast a few rootkit's that do so
[07:47:02] Jester05: justinh, thats why we make more tho.. we rack up a hell of a debt in the process
[07:47:06] Cap_J_L_Picard: clever: there are, with vista and win 7 one can replace audio and video drivers on the fly no problem...
[07:47:07] Jester05: nicely done wagnerrp
[07:47:11] justinh: wagnerrp: pretty senior network admin for British Telecom IIRC
[07:47:30] clever: Cap_J_L_Picard: i heard about them having to improve video drivers before, for the compiz like features
[07:47:33] wagnerrp: yeah, hes getting screwed
[07:47:34] Cap_J_L_Picard: clever: rootkits modify cureent in memory code...
[07:47:41] justinh: we all are here
[07:47:51] clever: Cap_J_L_Picard: yeah, which would allow you to force code into the kernel
[07:47:51] justinh: no wonder there's still such a brain drain
[07:48:15] justinh: I get about £5k more than the going rate for my job title here
[07:48:44] Jester05: how many gigs should I give windows? .. have a 500g hdd, will be running (1) windows, (2) linux, and have (1) storage partition
[07:48:45] clever: Cap_J_L_Picard: if the eye candy ever crashes the video drivers, it needs to be able to reboot them without restarting the whole system
[07:49:06] wagnerrp: hopefully not a shared storage partition
[07:49:13] Cap_J_L_Picard: clever: yeah, but an official developer shouldn't resort to such methods.
[07:49:37] clever: Cap_J_L_Picard: yeah, they probly fixed video driver loading so it can reload that on its own without a reboot
[07:50:04] Cap_J_L_Picard: clever: winxp used to drop to generic VGA drivers when the video drivers crashed
[07:50:16] clever: ive never seen that happen
[07:50:17] Cap_J_L_Picard: they had both loaded...
[07:50:39] clever: on ocasion, ive seen win95 drop to a win 3.11 style error screen
[07:50:45] clever: the white box with an error msg
[07:51:08] clever: but after that its all been blue screens and hardlocks
[07:51:13] Cap_J_L_Picard: clever: I've seen win7 drop a BSOD on driver crash too...
[07:51:31] Jester05: I think I'm going to create a small directional EMP lol
[07:51:36] Cap_J_L_Picard: clever: I've also seen it restart drivers succesfully...
[07:51:46] Jester05: it'd be pretty cool to knock old pc's out w/ .. mainly just for shits and giggles lol
[07:52:00] clever: once, my 2.9ghz celeron lost its audio drivers
[07:52:01] wagnerrp: Jester05: ill take two
[07:52:10] clever: all output was gone
[07:52:15] clever: only a reboot fixed it
[07:52:19] Jester05: it shouldn't be hard to make.. now to make it user safe on the other hand..
[07:52:21] Cap_J_L_Picard: clever: on windows?
[07:52:24] clever: Cap_J_L_Picard: yeah
[07:52:27] wagnerrp: theres some punk kid who likes driving down my street with a subwoofer worth more than the rest of this car
[07:52:28] clever: xp home
[07:52:53] Cap_J_L_Picard: clever: I know how to manually restart the windows 7 audio drivers now, without the reboot, but it's a pain in the arse...
[07:52:58] Jester05: wagnerrp, easy fix for that.. ;)
[07:53:07] clever: Jester05: the question of 'safe' is how directional it is, and how much psysical damage it will cause to the user
[07:53:07] wagnerrp: *thump* *thump* *thump*, along with heavy rattling as crap vibrates off his car
[07:53:15] Cap_J_L_Picard: clever: I wrote a powershell script to automate it...
[07:53:17] clever: you dont want it nuking every computer within 10 miles

[07:56:17] wagnerrp: xkcd now has a javascript 'terminal'

[08:00:12] clever: “This offence was an execution-style killing of a defenceless pregnant young mother. A more horrific crime is difficult to imagine.”
[08:00:33] clever: 'The boy is said to have hid the gun under a blanket to avoid being spotted by one of the victim’s daughters prior to the shooting, and to have later thrown the spent casing from the shot into a ditch on his way to school.'
[08:01:18] Jester05: WTF
[08:01:23] Jester05: I'm reading too
[08:01:50] Jester05: I don't get this rehabilitation bullshit
[08:02:15] Jester05: the percentage of people who come out of prison "changed" is next to non-existent
[08:02:37] wagnerrp: watch the language
[08:02:45] Jester05: we shouldn't pay to keep them alive behind bars... should just kill anyone who will be a "lifer"
[08:03:08] clever: 'He escapes the death penalty, which the state limits to those over 14'
[08:03:11] Jester05: sorry wagnerrp .. just kind of strongly opinionated about this type of subject
[08:03:35] Jester05: oh like they even use the death penalty int he US anymore
[08:03:57] justinh: clever: daily fail? oh dear. not one of the UK's more credible newspapers I'm afraid
[08:04:04] Jester05: we just put them in a 9x9 cell for several years, paying for their food, heat, water, cable tv, etc then let them back out on the streets
[08:04:15] justinh: read by the knee-jerking white middle classes here :)
[08:04:17] clever: as i saw in a comment on another article, 'It's getting to the point when they should just cull off all the mass murderers, mass rapists and serial offenders... Earth has already reached it's population cap. removing these people from society would get rid of them as a burden and it would probably scare people into doin the right thing too.
[08:04:47] wagnerrp: oh come on....
[08:04:56] wagnerrp: weve been at our population cap for the last 200 years
[08:05:26] justinh: hey no there's plenty food to go around. just let whitey continue to waste it – he's alright Jack
[08:05:40] Jester05: no matter how you spin it, we need to start killing those who are not fit for society rather than allowing them to kill prison guards when the cable tv goes out
[08:05:44] wagnerrp: people were complaining about that in Brittan at the turn of the 19th century
[08:06:02] Jester05: how in the heck do we allow prisoners to go on strike in order to get their way.. thats just insanity to me
[08:06:16] wagnerrp: what do they strike?
[08:06:24] Jester05: when they take over a prison
[08:06:24] justinh: wagnerrp: thing is though, the rich still had plenty to eat :)
[08:06:35] Jester05: they'll get a few guards and hold them captive
[08:06:48] justinh: if you start advocating killing people you don't deem fit to live, then you lose any respect I might've had for you
[08:07:25] Jester05: justinh, if someone has proven time and time again that they are not fit to be out in society why keep them alive?
[08:07:31] clever: could just do what we have seen in a few movies and tv shows
[08:07:39] Jester05: I find it to be a more uncivil act to keep someone captive than to simply execute them
[08:07:43] clever: throw all the murderers on an island and let them have at eachother
[08:08:04] justinh: ahh the rantings of the young conservatives. meh
[08:08:05] Jester05: clever, we did.. hence Australia ;)
[08:08:25] clever: Jester05: and now we are letting aussies back out:P
[08:08:28] Cap_J_L_Picard: why does my computer prefer to do everything on core 2?
[08:08:44] wagnerrp: Cap_J_L_Picard: as opposed to...?
[08:08:50] Jester05: justinh, so you think we should pay to keep them in prison only to be released to turn around and commit the same crime they were thrown in for before?
[08:08:56] wagnerrp: oh, you mean processor affinity?
[08:08:57] Cap_J_L_Picard: cores 1, 3 and 4
[08:09:10] Cap_J_L_Picard: core 2 is always used more...
[08:09:20] Cap_J_L_Picard: heats up first
[08:09:21] wagnerrp: youre only running single threaded tasks
[08:09:27] wagnerrp: something is already running on core 1
[08:09:40] wagnerrp: so it gets shoveled over to core 2, and left there for cache coherency
[08:09:42] Cap_J_L_Picard: I'm running multithreaded tasks, and lots of them/
[08:09:48] Jester05: core 1 is typically taken up by system crap on my pc
[08:09:55] Cap_J_L_Picard: in fact, this second I'm maxing out all the cores...
[08:09:57] Jester05: my second core always ends up running more task related events
[08:10:24] Cap_J_L_Picard: but even when not, I would espect processes to be going on 3 and 4 from time to time...
[08:10:29] justinh: AFAIK anyway this isn't #politics so er...
[08:10:37] justinh: I'm staying out of this one
[08:11:09] Jester05: justinh, don't try to sound like you actually had anything to come back w/ .. you just found an easy out
[08:11:22] Cap_J_L_Picard: 290+ processes, some should be on cores 3 and 4....
[08:11:42] Cap_J_L_Picard: even with only 4–5 of them running...
[08:11:56] wagnerrp: 290???
[08:12:09] Jester05: 290? wtf are you running lol
[08:12:19] Cap_J_L_Picard: wagnerrp: all services, multithreaded/multiprocess and stuff...
[08:12:33] Cap_J_L_Picard: add it all up, I'm at 318 now...
[08:12:38] wagnerrp: very few things are actually multiprocess
[08:12:59] Cap_J_L_Picard: wagnerrp: they are when you build them to be...
[08:13:05] wagnerrp: preforked servers are about the only thing that comes to mind
[08:13:31] wagnerrp: yes, but you SHOULDNT build them to be unless you have a very specific need to
[08:13:34] clever: mplayer's -cache will use a 2nd process for the caching, but thats only 2
[08:13:36] Jester05: has k3b improved substantially or is it just me?
[08:13:43] wagnerrp: and thats to let they violently crash without taking down the rest of the process
[08:13:50] wagnerrp: s/they/them/
[08:13:57] Cap_J_L_Picard: 2 for gdm, 3 for hald...
[08:14:01] Cap_J_L_Picard: it soon adds up.
[08:14:16] Cap_J_L_Picard: kde + gnome services running...
[08:14:40] Cap_J_L_Picard: rxvt terms, each with a shell spawned
[08:15:01] Cap_J_L_Picard: and at this second I happen to have 2 5 threaded compiles running...
[08:15:16] clever: ive got 15 compiles running
[08:15:18] clever: each with a -j3
[08:15:37] Cap_J_L_Picard: I had 3 with -j5 a minute ago...
[08:15:47] Cap_J_L_Picard: oh, ccache...
[08:16:04] Cap_J_L_Picard: so, that's 2 processes for each make thread.
[08:17:01] Cap_J_L_Picard: windows strains under my usage patterns...
[08:17:18] Cap_J_L_Picard: at least Linux can multitask quite well...
[08:18:16] clever: aslong as i have enough ram, linux has no trouble
[08:18:37] Cap_J_L_Picard: yeah, 8GB is not easy to fill here...
[08:18:42] clever: and linux makes it trivial to find out which app is using the ram, and even fix that app itself (valgrind and stuff)
[08:19:31] wagnerrp: no operating system handles 45 simultaneous loaded threads well
[08:19:42] wagnerrp: some so it better than others, but theres no way around the context switching
[08:20:13] clever: this laptop is at a load average of 11 now
[08:20:22] Cap_J_L_Picard: wagnerrp: compared to windows, linux is elite at handling lots of threads

[08:22:04] clever: firefox is taking the bigest impact
[08:22:13] clever: and the scarry thing, is that i have zero swap
[08:22:14] Cap_J_L_Picard: and I'm looking at 11 load average this moment...
[08:22:19] clever: if i run out of ram, i'm toast
[08:22:31] Cap_J_L_Picard: I have 20KiB of swap use, lols...
[08:22:50] clever: my entire OS (root and /usr and all) is stored on a tmpfs
[08:23:10] clever: so i'm already missing a gig of ram (out of 3) to start with
[08:24:30] clever: because of dependencys, i'm not actualy running that many compiles at once, just 2 seperate packages
[08:25:12] clever: just ncurses now
[08:25:39] Cap_J_L_Picard: clever: gentoo?
[08:26:25] clever: yep

[08:56:39] Jester05: man I'm repartitioning my main hdd and its taking FOREVER.. I wonder if my hdd isn't failing on me

[08:56:57] Jester05: any good tools to analyze your hdd w/ ?
[08:57:07] justinh: clever: this I already know. mythtv still doesn't quite scale 16:9 themes to 4:3 resolutions as you'd expect though
[08:57:07] clever: Jester05: smartctl, fsck
[08:57:22] justinh: and no, I ain't using no lame 4:3 theme
[08:57:39] Jester05: I already wiped out the former partitions .. will that effect my ability to test it?
[08:57:40] clever: the tv itself would stretch the 4:3 signal back to 16:9 display
[08:57:46] justinh: well DUH
[08:57:54] clever: so its just loosing some resolution on the wire
[08:58:15] clever: Jester05: smartctl doesnt care whats on the drive, it will ask the firmware in the drive itself if anything is wrong

[08:59:31] clever: ah
[08:59:47] justinh: things get clipped, disappear etc

[09:03:44] clever: Jester05: miliseconds
[09:04:02] Jester05: its just sitting here not doing anything
[09:04:04] clever: the firmware in the drive itself is constantly monitoring things, smartctl just asks it how well everything is
[09:04:07] Jester05: hdd light is flashing tho
[09:04:20] clever: and optionaly, orders it to do some tests
[09:04:26] Kunalagon: hello, is there anyway to change recording parameters ? Like codec used, bitrate used...etc. ?
[09:04:40] clever: Kunalagon: yeah, its under tv setup and recording profiles i think
[09:04:53] Jester05: hmm
[09:04:53] clever: the options you get depend on what capture card your using
[09:04:53] justinh: Kunalagon: depends. if you have a digital tuner, NO
[09:05:01] Jester05: wonder if I'm facing a dead/dying drive then
[09:05:06] Kunalagon: justinh: I hava analog
[09:05:10] Jester05: its only 15 months old
[09:05:10] clever: Jester05: what options did you give smartctl?
[09:05:24] Jester05: i executed it running gsmartcontrol
[09:05:29] justinh: Kunalagon: and if you have a pvr tuner card, you get to choose mpeg2 or mpeg2 as the codec. Or maybe mpeg2
[09:05:32] clever: never used that one before
[09:05:34] Jester05: so w/e it uses by default
[09:05:50] clever: let me login to the laptop with a failing drive
[09:05:55] justinh: and even if it's not a pvr card, you get to choose between mpeg4 & RTJPEG. woooyeah

[09:07:18] Jester05: hmm
[09:07:26] Jester05: it seems like my hardware is unresponsive or something
[09:07:38] clever: the key part for my report is 'Drive failure expected in less than 24 hours. SAVE ALL DATA.'
[09:08:12] clever: every attempt to install linux to that drive has since failed, bad sectors turn up where they wherent before
[09:08:25] clever: theyve learned to reproduce
[09:08:46] clever: i'm using it purely as swap, and even that has its risks
[09:09:01] clever: one day, i heard the click of death, and then something segfaulted
[09:09:19] clever: i moved the swap elsewhere on the disk and its been ok since, but its not to be trusted

[09:10:39] clever: weird
[09:10:42] Jester05: never returning back to prompt

[09:12:37] Jester05: i did cancel gpart while it was "trying" to repartion the drive..
[09:13:02] clever: it seems to be hanging on the very first command to the drive
[09:13:08] Jester05: it sat at the first partiton which was only an 80 gig partition for quite a while so threw in the towel
[09:13:10] clever: but ive never seen the command itself before
[09:13:26] clever: the drive itself may have locked up, check dmesg

[09:15:16] clever: yeah, harddrive needs a reboot
[09:15:46] Jester05: just reboot the machine?
[09:15:47] clever: rebooting might clear it up enough to let smartctl do its thing
[09:15:50] clever: yeah
[09:15:54] clever: maybe leave it off for a minute
[09:16:11] Jester05: alright.. I'll go ahead and log back in on here via laptop then

[09:34:18] Jester05: hey, chocolate milk...
[09:34:32] clever: the 4cyl engine has trouble getting to 100km/h, its loud, its cold, its a bumpy ride
[09:34:43] Jester05: ohh
[09:34:53] Jester05: I've always had the i6 in my jeeps
[09:35:00] Jester05: gotta admit.. i love that engine
[09:35:20] Jester05: kind of upset that Jeep quit using it in 04
[09:35:32] Jester05: maybe I need to get an 04 TJ
[09:36:00] Jester05: http://www.jeep4ever.ca/pics/guest_jps/jesse.jpg
[09:36:04] Jester05: something like that maybe
[09:36:12] AndyCap: clever: why on earth do you use a jeep if you need to go 100 km/h?
[09:36:31] clever: AndyCap: on the highway to get to the trail
[09:36:46] clever: Jester05: http://gallery.earthtools.ca/index.py/jeep_ru . . . 129_2953.JPG the winch to get it unstuck, is under the ice:P
[09:36:53] Jester05: hey my grand cherokee will hit 120mph lol
[09:37:01] justinh: ooo me like xfce
[09:37:06] clever: the trailer also helps when you start breaking drive shafts
[09:37:10] clever: easyer to get it home
[09:37:27] Jester05: haha true
[09:37:38] Jester05: guess I should invest n a trailer ;)
[09:38:20] Jester05: what do you think of those 4 door JKs
[09:38:22] clever: http://gallery.earthtools.ca/index.py/jeep/se . . . un%20016.jpg and if your lawn is right, you dont need ramps to get it on
[09:38:31] Jester05: I'm beside myself about a 4 door wrangler..
[09:38:57] Jester05: clever, w/ those tires you could just crawl up on it
[09:39:10] clever: yeah, almost
[09:39:17] clever: we have driven off before without ramps
[09:39:24] clever: but getting back up isnt easy:P
[09:39:28] Jester05: lol
[09:39:32] AndyCap: clever: I suspect convoy speeds have increased since the jeep was concieved, but I dunno. :)
[09:40:02] clever: AndyCap: a friend nearby has recently purchased 3 old military jeeps
[09:40:11] clever: one of them is still wired as a 24volt system
[09:40:17] Jester05: nice..
[09:40:19] clever: i think only one has motorized wipers
[09:40:42] Jester05: I think I'd rather get an old military for off roading
[09:40:52] Jester05: and def set that up w/ a linux run GPS system lol
[09:40:59] Jester05: perfect use for that old laptop ;)
[09:41:24] clever: i should give that a try on my grey scale laptop
[09:42:02] Jester05: no way
[09:42:06] Jester05: you need color
[09:42:16] clever: the gateway might work better then
[09:42:22] clever: its got more ram too
[09:42:32] Jester05: it'd be really interesting to do if you have a phone w/ broadband internet.. could tie google earth in w/ it
[09:42:50] clever: ive got a proper 3g cell modem (USB)
[09:43:00] Jester05: nice
[09:43:21] clever: the fun part, would be extending the LCD panel wiring
[09:43:23] Jester05: man i'm so tired of ubuntu..
[09:43:36] clever: i'm using gentoo here for 2 of my systems
[09:43:41] clever: ubuntu on 3
[09:43:48] clever: xp on 1, and LFS on 1
[09:44:06] Jester05: i use ubuntu on my laptop but usually arch on the desktop

[09:44:18] Jester05: but currently running an ubuntu live on the desktop.. :(
[09:44:47] clever: AndyCap: nice
[09:45:08] clever: Jester05: this gentoo usb stick is similar to a livecd in the way it works
[09:45:19] Jester05: I've been a jeep man since the age of 16.. prob always will be
[09:45:30] clever: i pop the stick in and boot a copy of gentoo from ram, then i can remove the stick and keep using it
[09:45:37] Jester05: clever, I've got a 1gig usb doing nothing.. maybe I should give gentoo a kick on tat
[09:45:48] clever: 2gig is bearly enough room
[09:45:49] Jester05: I like the sounds of that...

[09:47:51] Jester05: and currently i dont have health insurance since I just graduated so i don't want to go to the doctor lol
[09:48:07] clever: the last ear infection i got, was fixed with special ear drops

[09:51:21] Jester05: yeah I know.. my moms a nurse so I'll see if they have any samples at the office she can get me
[09:51:35] Jester05: could prob get her boss to write me another Rx even..
[09:51:38] AndyCap: geez, no april fools in the online papers. :(
[09:51:50] Jester05: lol
[09:52:28] Jester05: well hdd passed the short test.. now trying the Conveyance

[09:53:22] clever: this is something else to check
[09:53:41] clever: the firmware will re-allocate sectors to some spare space, as they fail
[09:53:49] clever: so the failure will be invisible normaly
[09:54:02] Jester05: hmm
[09:54:15] Jester05: I'll send you the output i get when this test is complete
[09:54:24] clever: but once it runs out of spare's, the problem will start showing
[09:54:24] Jester05: lemme get back on xchat on that machine
[09:54:49] clever: the part thats hard to figure out, is which direction is good
[09:55:12] clever: it says the threshold is 10, but is it <10 or >10 thats bad
[09:55:43] Jester05: good pnt
[09:56:02] clever: the best i can think of, is to check it monthly and see what direction its going in

[10:02:53] clever: Jester05: yeah, it looks ok at a glance
[10:03:08] AndyCap: clever: yeah, looks like your drive with 01 in reallocated sector count isn't doing too well. :P
[10:03:43] clever: AndyCap: yeah, that drive is terminal
[10:04:17] clever: it might have been caused by psysical shock
[10:04:18] clever: i was swapping it between laptops alot that weekend
[10:05:09] AndyCap: grab what you can off it. :)
[10:05:26] clever: AndyCap: i did as soon as i got home, netbooted it and did a full backup
[10:05:33] clever: since then, its been nothing but swap
[10:05:41] Jester05: man gparted keeps hanging up every time it tries to create the new partition
[10:05:56] Jester05: maybe the issue is related to the controller?
[10:06:06] clever: the 1tb drive has been running 10k hours now it seems
[10:06:10] clever: with a total of 26 startups
[10:06:18] Jester05: NICE
[10:06:19] Jester05: lol
[10:06:27] clever: 24 power ons
[10:06:30] AndyCap: clever: uhh, swap? that's just stupid. if you corrupt your memory you could kill the rest of your filesystems too
[10:06:33] clever: seems like it went to sleep twice
[10:06:47] clever: AndyCap: it has no file system at all, everything is NFS now
[10:07:14] AndyCap: clever: still, you don't want a shady disk for swap
[10:07:32] Jester05: so gparted keeps fialing while creating new ntfs file system
[10:07:38] clever: AndyCap: it did swap into a bad sector one day and it led to a segfault
[10:07:45] Jester05: perhaps i shouldn't try to format it and just simply partition it?
[10:07:53] clever: but that laptop is extremely low on ram
[10:07:54] Jester05: let windows format it?
[10:08:06] clever: Jester05: could try that
[10:08:21] Jester05: I just don't understand why its failing to create the NTFS file system
[10:08:37] clever: AndyCap: odd, some of the values have gone up from 100 to 200
[10:08:40] Jester05: if its unsupported by the live cd it shouldn't be on the list of possible formats so I assume thats not the case
[10:08:47] Jester05: which points to either the drive or the controller
[10:09:19] Jester05: maybe just let this thing run for a while and see what happens?
[10:09:26] AndyCap: clever: some are from last power on?
[10:09:41] clever: things like multi_zone_error_rate
[10:09:49] clever: the raw value is 0 in both cases
[10:09:51] Jester05: its only an 80 gig partition.. shouldn't be taking a long time to format right?

[10:17:57] Cap_J_L_Picard: Crystal Palace Transmitter, UK.
[10:17:57] Jester05: hmm
[10:18:18] Cap_J_L_Picard: I can watch live TV, and finally got the channels to tune...
[10:18:27] Cap_J_L_Picard: but it won't download EIT...
[10:18:27] Jester05: how long as it been running?
[10:18:45] Jester05: it takes mine a couple days to start pulling EIT data w/ OTA
[10:18:51] Jester05: from when I configure it..
[10:18:55] Cap_J_L_Picard: 4.5 hours
[10:19:06] Cap_J_L_Picard: I should have some data
[10:19:08] Jester05: a recent new/re-configure?
[10:19:18] Cap_J_L_Picard: I'f got none.
[10:19:29] Cap_J_L_Picard: yes, that's how I picked up the date...
[10:19:43] Jester05: hmm
[10:19:49] Cap_J_L_Picard: It should manage EIT in a few minutes...
[10:20:10] Jester05: card working properly?
[10:20:12] Cap_J_L_Picard: the set top boxes don't take that long to get it in this country...
[10:20:48] Cap_J_L_Picard: Well, I had to increase the timeout for the channel lock to 8 seconds for the scan...
[10:20:49] AndyCap: it's configurable, but it starts if there's an idle tuner for 5 minutes iirc
[10:20:55] clever: Jester05: 'Current Pending Sector Count'
[10:21:00] clever: Jester05: that one is also interesting
[10:21:02] AndyCap: and works it way through the channels.
[10:21:09] Cap_J_L_Picard: AndyCap: it's been idle for 4 hours...
[10:21:17] Cap_J_L_Picard: and it's 60 seconds default...
[10:21:47] clever: AndyCap: it looks like my 'toast' drive has 8 'unstable' sectors that are waiting for a write before they remap
[10:22:15] clever: but considering how the rellocated sector count is, it may not have any room to remap them
[10:23:01] AndyCap: clever: well it won't remap them until you write to that sector again iirc.
[10:23:10] clever: yeah thats what it was saying
[10:23:23] clever: its assuming the read will work later, like its a temp problem
[10:23:30] clever: but has marked it as unstable, for posible remaping
[10:26:48] clever: my main server seems to be running a bit hot, 42c for its drives
[10:27:17] clever: 3rd drive is a great deal older, 19k hours vs 29k hours
[10:27:46] clever: and just over 1k spinups
[10:28:40] clever: 4th has alot of seek errors:S
[10:29:13] clever: and 18 uncorrectable errors it had to report to the OS
[10:30:29] clever: i should look into replacing the 4th one
[10:31:12] clever: ah, its the root drive
[10:31:16] clever: that will be a pain
[10:33:09] clever: damn, i still have an NTFS partition in that box...
[10:37:06] Jester05: back
[10:37:13] Jester05: sorry had to fix myself a bowl of cereal lol
[10:37:34] Jester05: I just realized I'm prob close to 10k hrs on this box....
[10:37:49] clever: 29k is the highest ive found so far
[10:37:51] Jester05: its been on pretty much 24/7 since i built it
[10:38:21] Jester05: maybe I shouldn't just leave my pc on all the time.. :-\
[10:38:24] clever: same for that 29k hour box
[10:38:51] Jester05: u leave your computers on 24/7?
[10:39:03] clever: i leave 5 of them on 24/7

[10:39:49] Jester05: been thru 2 hdds and 1 power supply
[10:39:54] Jester05: and 1 dvd rom lol
[10:39:55] clever: i started with a redhat9 server in 2004
[10:40:14] clever: it was on pretty much 24/7 until ~190 days ago
[10:40:31] clever: the cpu fan gave out again and i had finished migrating it to another system, so i just turned it off
[10:40:46] clever: i had turned it on again lately to get my myth recordings out
[10:40:55] clever: and fsck complained it had been 180 days without a check:P
[10:40:58] Jester05: yeah
[10:41:16] clever: not sure if it has smartctl on it at all

[10:42:38] clever: the only time i got a smell out of my pc, was when the loose wire for the mobo speaker touched the floppy drive in a bad place
[10:42:42] Jester05: tanks i tell you, tanks!
[10:42:49] clever: it melted the insulation off the fire :P
[10:42:54] Jester05: lol

[11:42:48] clever: chmod/chown would do, but the problem will likely come back after a reboot

[11:48:56] k-man: i think udev is the way to do it permanently
[11:50:48] clever: udev doesnt handle creating the unix socket
[11:51:00] clever: udev creates the character device lirc0 for the driver itself
[11:51:10] clever: then lircd the program is started, which creates lircd the unix socket

[11:59:43] k-man: permanently
[11:59:57] clever: k-man: modify your /etc/init.d/lirc script to chown it after running lircd
[12:00:27] clever: id add a sleep 3; to be safe, since it may try to chown before lircd can make it
[12:00:27] k-man: clever: ok, thanks

[12:18:12] GreyFoxx: they can keep their virii infected malware crap out of my network heh
[12:18:18] clever: GreyFoxx: exactly
[12:18:42] GreyFoxx: but then I have a plethora of extra hardware around so it didn't cost me anything to do it that way

[12:29:00] justinh: typical. a #debill flashmob is gonna be in manchester tonight, just when I'm timetabled to do something else
[12:30:52] AndyCap: a what now?
[12:31:23] justinh: protest against the digital economy bill
[12:31:32] justinh: you must've heard about flashmobs
[12:31:56] justinh: basically, people meet in a public place at a given time – organised via social networks
[12:32:26] AndyCap: was more the #debill part
[12:32:49] justinh: the 'cut user suspected of file sharing off the internet' bill
[12:33:16] justinh: and 'if a copyright owner can't be traced, transfer ownership to a govt. appointed company' bill
[12:33:19] AndyCap: ah, sounds good. then they wouldn't bring their parrots in here
[12:33:32] AndyCap: :)
[12:33:38] justinh: yeah, but they plan to pin everybody down by their IP address
[12:33:57] justinh: which is about as reliable as relying on car reg. plates to determine who was driving
[12:34:15] AndyCap: but we're not taking the driver, but the car.
[12:34:31] justinh: it has serious implications for public wifi too
[12:34:47] Jester05: well i just initiated a 2 hr 11 min hdd test
[12:34:49] Jester05: :(
[12:34:50] Jester05: lol
[12:34:51] AndyCap: nah, it would just cease to exist
[12:34:59] justinh: precisely
[12:35:30] AndyCap: they're filthy freeloaders stealing from the poor cellphone providers
[12:35:31] justinh: the big bone of contention is that the govt want to pass the bill without having it properly debated
[12:35:52] justinh: from bill to law in 2 weeks or something daft
[12:36:08] AndyCap: yay, efficient goverment! what's not to like
[12:36:09] AndyCap: :P
[12:36:23] justinh: the MP's links to media corporations have been revealed too
[12:36:40] justinh: I don't oppose punishing piracy, far from it
[12:36:44] justinh: this isn't about piracy
[12:39:54] justinh: the bill also proposes filtering the internet at DNS level

[12:40:36] AndyCap: heh, at least you get a law about it. here the police and isp's just went ahead and did it
[12:40:49] justinh: yeah well. we don't want it here
[12:41:15] justinh: it should be the responsibilty of copyriight owners to go after infringers. not government
[12:41:18] justinh: it's a CIVIL matter
[12:41:28] AndyCap: royalties. :)
[12:42:06] justinh: as for the music companies complaining that piracy is affecting their revenues & killing music... they're higher than they've ever been before
[12:42:30] justinh: plus, as already shown in france, legislation doesn't actually stop piracy
[12:42:44] justinh: therefore all the bill ends up being is an affront to civil liberty
[12:42:50] AndyCap: but the evil single downloads are increasing.
[12:43:21] justinh: who cares? if companies aren't selling enough albums it's their own fault
[12:44:01] justinh: this protest is basically about govt. looking after corporations, not its citizens
[12:44:14] justinh: and not going about it by due process
[12:44:14] AndyCap: so is there any hope of shaming your MP into doing the right thing?
[12:44:15] Jester05: well gents I'm going to take a shower and had to advancedauto .. gotta turn in my brake caliper to get the $50 core charge back.. yeah $50 core charge ...
[12:44:25] AndyCap: or are you going to get read the riot act?
[12:44:29] justinh: AndyCap: one party has already done a u-turn
[12:45:35] justinh: problem is, without a proper informed debate MPs would just sign it off
[12:45:43] justinh: they don't understand what it's about
[12:45:58] AndyCap: pirates are bad. that makes me good.
[12:45:59] AndyCap: :)
[12:46:21] AndyCap: pedophiles bad, me doubleplusgood
[12:46:32] justinh: the rules about copyright transfer are quite worrying
[12:46:57] AndyCap: yeah, that sounds like quite a moneygrab
[12:46:58] justinh: basically saying that if somebody wants to use something of yours & can't get in touch for whatever reason, they can just have it
[12:47:22] justinh: and you'd have no control over subsequent works
[12:47:33] justinh: there's some good stuff in the bill too
[12:47:44] justinh: it's not all twonk :)
[12:48:28] justinh: ISPs & even a handful of music companies are dead against it
[12:48:43] justinh: goes without saying that said music companies aren't world-level players
[12:49:06] Jester05: anyone wanna buy a questionable Asus P5E3 Premium lol
[12:49:28] Jester05: its a completely tricked out mobo.. just dunno for sure if the sata controller works right ;)
[12:50:45] AndyCap: justinh: anywho. copyright infringement being a civil matter.
[12:51:07] AndyCap: justinh: what if virgin started cutting off suspected infringers on their own. :)
[12:51:21] justinh: thought they already did
[12:52:03] Cap_J_L_Picard: They can't prove it enough to get a valid warrant already...
[12:52:09] justinh: btw this is the same company who HOST copyrighted stuff on their binary usenet servers after boasting they'd a) increased retention AND b) widened the number of available groups
[12:52:44] AndyCap: "Virgin appears to have gone further than any other ISP in acceding to the demands of the music industry." Hahaha. what would they expect from Virgin!
[12:52:46] Cap_J_L_Picard: As a hash cannot == copywrited file...
[12:53:16] justinh: hey mister two computers connected together equals an internet
[12:53:21] Cap_J_L_Picard: the only way they can say without reasonable doubt would be finding the files on the hardrive.
[12:53:39] Cap_J_L_Picard: justinh: it is, technically speaking...
[12:53:40] justinh: or pick through their logs to see who'd downloaded which rar
[12:54:12] Cap_J_L_Picard: justinh: what logs? Torrents are just hashes in logs..
[12:54:19] justinh: well well well what do you know.. I set both units to get IPs by DHCP & suddenly the software starts to work as it should
[12:54:28] justinh: Cap_J_L_Picard: VM host BINARY NEWSGROUPS
[12:54:29] Cap_J_L_Picard: and there are an infinite amount of files that will equal the same hash...
[12:54:55] Cap_J_L_Picard: the one the ISPs don't like is torrents, it uses their networks far too effeciently...
[12:54:55] k-man: with mythnetvideo, i don't seem to get any results for searches except on daily motion – how do i get some debug info from it?
[12:56:12] clever: Cap_J_L_Picard: ive discovered that the bit torrent in the WOW updater makes my system blue screen
[12:56:39] clever: its not a problem with the wifi drivers, the usb cell modem does it also
[12:57:07] Cap_J_L_Picard: no, it's because that client installs itself as a windows driver itself...

[12:59:30] Cap_J_L_Picard: clever: it does, but that doesn't stop that client installing it's own driver right into the stack...
[12:59:54] clever: Cap_J_L_Picard: i dont see how its doing any mucking around with the kernel, it works just fine under wine
[13:00:06] clever: wine doesnt have access to ring0 or any real kernel stuff
[13:00:46] Cap_J_L_Picard: clever: which is why it doesn't crash in Linux
[13:01:10] clever: if it demanded that special driver, it would just refuse to work at all
[13:01:19] clever: so its either optional or doesnt exist
[13:01:24] Cap_J_L_Picard: the installer ignores the extra component, it's not necerssary just improves the windows stack a bit...
[13:01:39] Cap_J_L_Picard: so on windows it installs it.
[13:01:49] Cap_J_L_Picard: but it doesn't tell you it's going to
[13:01:52] clever: i'll have to take a closer look next time i'm in windows to see if thats true

[13:02:09] justinh: who cares anyway, it's WoW :)
[13:02:15] Jester05: clever, if it is my sata controller thats messing up do you think it'd do any good to try to plug into a different sata port? .. I have 6 internal sata ports and 2 external sata ports on the mobo
[13:02:27] clever: Jester05: cant hurt to try another port
[13:02:45] Jester05: I wonder how my bios will like me plugging into different sata ports
[13:03:08] Jester05: didn't know if it'd want port0 to be filled prior to using port1

[14:07:40] justinh: using services.mythtv.org or something
[14:07:46] Cap_J_L_Picard: yeah, get the CALLSIGNS to match and use them
[14:07:47] Beirdo: "I'm Sorry, I'll Read That Again"
[14:08:04] Cap_J_L_Picard: that's how it's supposed to automatically do it anyway...
[14:08:14] justinh: it's not though
[14:08:26] justinh: it's not supposed to do it automatically
[14:08:30] Cap_J_L_Picard: none of the callsigns in the radio times feeds match the ones sent over the air, so...
[14:09:05] justinh: we need somebody to collect all this stuff & pull it into mythtv-setup somehow
[14:09:25] justinh: maybe I'll have a word with Nick Morrott about it
[14:10:26] justinh: he beat me to my last good idea :)
[14:10:36] justinh: postcode config of xmltv lineups for the UK
[14:10:59] justinh: the problem is that freeview channel names aren't always right
[14:11:16] justinh: ITV2+1 was still called 'ITV' last time I looked
[14:11:37] justinh: and the numbers change as often as hell
[14:11:54] Cap_J_L_Picard: ITV2+1 is a seperate channel...
[14:12:01] justinh: DUH
[14:12:02] justinh: I KNOW
[14:12:16] justinh: but itv2+1 is called ITV over the air
[14:12:19] justinh: *wrongly*
[14:12:24] Cap_J_L_Picard: ITV/ITV1 still exists seperately...
[14:12:30] justinh: I KNOW
[14:12:36] justinh: point is, it's WRONG
[14:12:52] justinh: and it likely won't always be wrong, and likely may not remain wrong in every region
[14:12:59] Cap_J_L_Picard: "ITV2 +1" is the OTA call and name for it
[14:13:01] justinh: you can't take anything for granted with this lot
[14:13:09] justinh: maybe they fixed it then
[14:13:12] Cap_J_L_Picard: copied straight out of my mythweb...
[14:13:44] justinh: just illustrating we can't really rely on anything they broadcast
[14:13:57] justinh: not without having a live updated feed for everybody to use to base their config from
[14:14:14] justinh: and somebody'll have to maintain it
[14:14:59] justinh: we could use channel numbers or channel names.. doesn't matter
[14:15:10] justinh: so long as they're the same in all regions
[14:15:34] justinh: not 100% sure we can have that written in stone though
[14:15:57] Beirdo: Hmmm, I think I'll pass on this BBC7 jewel: Fags, Mags and Bags
[14:16:25] Beirdo: set in a Glasgow corner shop
[14:16:26] Beirdo: heh
[14:16:37] justinh: that was good
[14:16:37] Beirdo: so obviously, referring to smokes.
[14:16:47] Beirdo: it was a good show?
[14:16:53] justinh: I found it funny
[14:17:03] Beirdo: Hmmm
[14:17:12] justinh: very british humour
[14:17:14] Beirdo: OK, maybe I'll give it a listen...
[14:17:28] justinh: better than half the junk radio 4 put out as comedy these days

[14:28:01] justinh: they don't support using anything but a web browser with a flash plugin
[14:28:07] Cap_J_L_Picard: justinh: there is behind the scenes, those hacks are using it.
[14:28:29] justinh: but they're faking flash authentication
[14:28:36] Cap_J_L_Picard: justinh: the flash player uses it behind the scenes to get the right stream.

[16:20:29] mzb: Beirdo: ENOSENTENCE?
[16:20:29] wagnerrp: the problem is the translations are considerably longer than the original english text
[16:20:37] Beirdo: aye
[16:21:05] Beirdo: wagnerrp: could it be a "not 100DPI" issue?
[16:21:20] Beirdo: or is that issue long gone?

[16:21:45] skd5aner: and are you using something other than English?

[16:41:53] wagnerrp: it has become the bastard stepchild since cpu power and hardware acceleration for h264 decoding is so common
[16:41:53] Beirdo: hehe
[16:42:03] Beirdo: yeah, I know
[16:42:17] Beirdo: but if it is supported, I'd want gputrans to allow it

[19:26:53] Beirdo: Dibblah: now that's cool
[19:27:08] Beirdo: does it contain mythtv source?

[19:28:16] Beirdo: thankfully :)
[19:28:31] AndyCap: wagnerrp: ho-hum, how is that not foreign policy? :P
[19:28:52] wagnerrp: because its international waters, no foreign country owns claim to it
[19:28:52] Beirdo: because it's not against a foreign government
[19:28:58] Beirdo: it's against outlaws
[19:29:27] Dibblah: Hmm. They're also not as far as I understand complying with the GPL.
[19:29:38] Beirdo: Dibblah: now that's not good
[19:29:51] Dibblah: They have kernel modules for hardware that isn't in the sources they provide.
[19:29:58] wagnerrp: intentionally? or by some oversight

[19:31:21] Dibblah: Yup.
[19:31:41] Beirdo: wagnerrp: not sure, but pretty much, I think
[19:31:44] skd5aner: The amazing thing to me is how far off the coast these pirates will operate, hundreds, sometimes a thousand miles out to sea
[19:31:59] wagnerrp: i cant believe that
[19:32:00] Dibblah: And people think they want robot boats. Heh.
[19:32:11] wagnerrp: they dont have the ships to operate out that far

[19:32:43] Beirdo: AndyCap: yeah, and get sunk by my warships :)
[19:32:49] wagnerrp: theyve got little fast attack ships, few hundred miles worth of fuel at the most
[19:32:50] AndyCap: they've made a fair mint with their pirating ways, and can probably afford or hijack some support craft
[19:33:11] wagnerrp: they dont WANT support craft
[19:33:19] wagnerrp: support craft makes them a highly visible target
[19:33:25] Beirdo: well, it depends on where they are too
[19:33:44] AndyCap: wagnerrp: if it looks like a support craft, sure.
[19:33:45] wagnerrp: one likely to get bombed, shelled, torpedoed, or struck by cruise missile
[19:33:56] skd5aner: I thought the news reported that they did use support "mother" ships to launch from as well?

[20:11:34] wagnerrp: if you dont already have such an adapter
[20:11:41] devinheitmueller: One thing you have to watch out for though is sometimes the ones at radio shack have both a left and right input, but the 3.5mm jack is mono.
[20:11:51] TJM: ahh
[20:11:51] wagnerrp: even at radio shack prices, it shouldnt be much more than a couple bucks
[20:12:07] devinheitmueller: So you lose the stereo sound (this actually happened to me the last time I picked one of these up at Radio Shack)
[20:12:24] TJM: how does myth work with cable boxes like comcast's digital box?
[20:12:33] devinheitmueller: You have to look closely at the 3.5mm connector and make sure it has three conductors and not two.
[20:12:40] wagnerrp: myth records over analog capture, preferably svideo
[20:12:58] Beirdo: wagnerrp: possibly over firewire as an option?
[20:13:00] wagnerrp: and then either uses serial, firewire, or IR to control the box, depending on its capabilities
[20:13:16] wagnerrp: firewire may work, but dont count on it
[20:13:27] wagnerrp: considering its basically free to try, its worth at least testing
[20:13:30] Beirdo: yeah. analog will always work
[20:13:52] TJM: so it's probably best to just bypass the box?
[20:13:57] devinheitmueller: ... and if you want HD support, you need to get an HD-PVR though as opposed to a traditional analog capture device.

[20:14:34] wagnerrp: but most of it will be encrypted
[20:14:36] devinheitmueller: Bypassing the box isn't really practical, since more and more of the digital signals are encrypted.
[20:14:44] wagnerrp: check silicondust for a lineup of what will be unencrypted in your area
[20:14:54] TJM: geez i dont even remember what hauppage card i got..it's been a few years...
[20:14:56] Beirdo: cool while it works, but likely to not work for long
[20:15:14] devinheitmueller: TJM: Well, if it's a few years old then it definitely won't capture HD video.
[20:15:49] devinheitmueller: (which may or may not be important to you, depending on your needs)
[20:16:37] TJM: May be a personal opinion but i think most HD tv is a scam... High Definition movies is one thing...but most sat/cable companies are scam artists
[20:17:52] devinheitmueller: TJM: it varies of course by the show and the cable company, but I can say that there are plenty of cases in my experience where the HD TV looks much better, especially on a 42" TV.
[20:18:35] gbee: TJM: scam might be overstating it IMHO, overrated yes, the only content I really care about seeing in HD are wildlife documentaries which can look stunning vs their SD versions, but sport/drama I really don't see the point
[20:19:09] TJM: hm
[20:20:10] TJM: well thanks for the info.. i will have to put together a shopping list
[20:21:06] gbee: and of course there is broadcast HD in one country, vs another, or one broadcaster vs another ... e.g. BBC HD quality in the UK is excellent, Sky HD quality is rubbish, some of the samples I've seen coming from the US are worse even than Sky :)

[20:24:40] devinheitmueller: TJM: The problem is that because MythTV is used all over the world, with all different types of capture mechanisms (ATSC/QAM/DVB-T/DVB-C/DVB-S/ISDB, etc), the ideal setup varies incredibly depending on where you are located.

[20:25:37] devinheitmueller: In other words, the definition of "regular function dvr" is very different if you are trying to DVR analog cable TV in the United States versus digital satellite broadcasts in Europe.

[20:27:19] trumee: wagnerrp: it seems joggler needs to use intel IEGD drivers. would that be ok for mythtv?
[20:28:05] JEDIDIAH__: HDTV is a scam because the SD stuff crappier than it needed to be. They are selling you an improved service to make up for how badly they were doing before. If you can get a channel OTA it will probably look considerably better than it's cable version.

[22:30:38] jolaren: natanojl, No.. I'm trying to find where to edit the channel IDS
[22:31:21] natanojl: It's in the channel editor in mythtv-setup, or in mythweb
[22:32:44] jolaren: Oh boy.. this will be hard to translate

[23:09:36] jolaren: i'm talkin bout the other features
[23:09:43] Beirdo2: I didn't get it to be a camera. I have 35 mm cameras for that
[23:10:15] jolaren: I see
[23:10:25] jolaren: what bothered me the most is the damages you can so easily do to the display
[23:10:40] matmatmat: its really not easy
[23:10:43] Beirdo2: Heh. Mine is well protected.
[23:10:56] Beirdo2: And that's hardly iPhone specific
[23:10:59] matmatmat: mine isnt protected, and ive treated it really bad
[23:11:29] jolaren: i have three friends who've had their iphone display screwed
[23:11:42] jolaren: Beirdo, tho i'd say it's iphone specific.. it's glass over the display instead of hardplastic
[23:12:20] Beirdo2: Apple may be a lot of things, but stupid isn't one of em
[23:12:21] Beirdo2: And? I have hard plastic over that
[23:12:24] jolaren: I'm not sayin their stupid.. I'm just sayin they pay alot for what it acctually delivers
[23:12:30] matmatmat: i practically played curling with mine three times, you cant see any damage except for the metal frame and a tiny missing edge in the glass
[23:12:31] Beirdo2: Your friends must be careless :)

[23:43:08] randomuser1: i'm trying to set up my first mythdora install. the signal appears to be analog cable, but the scan locks channels up to 51 and holds at 52. what's up with that?
[23:44:29] jolaren: Started dieing on me again the backend.. or the backend is running I guess but I loose lock over my channels
[23:44:37] jolaren: somehow its connected to the EIT sendings
[23:45:42] matmatmat: can i make my tv do 200hz processing for mythtv somehow?
[23:46:17] kormoc: randomuser1: are you in the us?
[23:46:22] kormoc: matmatmat: 200 hz what?
[23:46:28] randomuser1: kornmoc: yes
[23:46:44] randomuser1: and sitting on the floor, forgive my spelling
[23:46:46] kormoc: randomuser1: you shouldnt' scan with analog, your schedules direct subscription handles that for you
[23:47:09] matmatmat: its a technology of modern tvs to make movements appear smooth by adding frames
[23:47:35] kormoc: matmatmat: if the tv is doing it, why would it care if the signal is coming from myth or a stb or what not?
[23:47:36] matmatmat: seems like i cant activate it when its connected to the computer
[23:47:39] randomuser1: the setting that says it would grab channels from listing source?
[23:48:00] kormoc: randomuser1: yes, but you need a valid, active subscription to schedulesdirect.org
[23:48:36] randomuser1: kormoc:i just set that up, seems essential, especially considering analog signal
[23:48:58] kormoc: yes, so just set that up and run mythfilldatabase and all is well
[23:49:09] randomuser1: cool
[23:50:23] randomuser1: is it normal to see 401 responses when running mythfilldatabase?

[23:52:54] jolaren: iamlindoro, ordering a big pack remotes from a company with the MythTV logo to earn some dough for the project..
[23:52:59] jolaren: wouldn't be hard to organize nor time consuming

[23:53:10] kormoc: jolaren: we don't take donations or payments
[23:53:13] iamlindoro: because you're wrong
[23:53:28] bjd: my hauppauge remote is absolutely spot on – never had a reason to replace it tbh
[23:53:40] iamlindoro: you would need to order a minimum quantity in the *thousands*, pay for the hardware design, molds, and manufacture, and then find a way to sell them
[23:54:03] iamlindoro: so no, it would be hard, time consuming, and expensive, for no reward whatsoever.
[23:54:11] iamlindoro: but if I'm wrong, go for it.
