[00:00:37] Beirdo: ick
[00:00:44] Beirdo: it says we can't display it either
[00:00:45] iamlindoro: Meh, no strong feelings on it, just caused me concern so I figured I'd ask
[00:00:48] iamlindoro: ew
[00:00:54] Beirdo: so yah, I think you are on the money
[00:01:16] Beirdo: You may not modify, publish, transmit, display, participate in the transfer or sale, create derivative works, or in any way exploit, any of the content, in whole or in part.
[00:01:57] Beirdo: I think the one we'd be in violation of would definitely be "display" whether it's a derivative work or not
[00:02:08] Beirdo: bye bye weather maps
[00:02:12] iamlindoro: boo :(
[00:02:17] Beirdo: dang
[00:02:24] iamlindoro: Wonder who might be better about it
[00:02:41] Beirdo: I'll have to look at wunderground's weather maps to see if they are usable
[00:02:56] awalls: NOAA.gov ?
[00:03:11] iamlindoro: Beirdo, NWS itself has some maps, but don't know about access from the API
[00:03:12] awalls: Taxpayer dollars after all
[00:03:13] Beirdo: awalls: that also could be a possibility
[00:03:21] iamlindoro: yeah, same thing
[00:03:33] iamlindoro: http://www.weather.gov/outlook_tab.php
[00:03:46] iamlindoro: And there are regional ones too
[00:03:59] awalls: And loops
[00:04:11] awalls: (at least at noaa.gov IIRC)
[00:04:39] Beirdo: so I would say I tend to agree that we are likely not within kosher for weather.com without their express permission
[00:05:04] awalls: Beirdo: according to NEC's uPD6122 datasheet 455 kHz / 12 = 38 kHz
[00:05:12] awalls: must be new math
[00:05:32] Beirdo: it's pretty dang close
[00:05:33] iamlindoro: Looks like the maps are't in the XML API, but they seems to be static so we should be able to figure out where those live
[00:05:46] Beirdo: 37916.666666 Hz
[00:05:59] Beirdo: yeah
[00:06:22] iamlindoro: Beirdo, So interestingly: http://www.weather.com/services/xmloap.html

[00:06:28] iamlindoro: weather.com *does* now have an API
[00:06:37] iamlindoro: Don't knwo if maps might be part of it
[00:07:05] Beirdo: Hmmm
[00:07:38] iamlindoro: Sure would be nice
[00:07:45] Beirdo: I think that we should probably reject #8185, and also related to that ticket disable/remove weather.com scripts for now.
[00:07:45] awalls: I just like that they chose a common AM IF freq for the oscillator. Parts must be cheap.
[00:08:31] iamlindoro: Beirdo, done
[00:09:12] iamlindoro: Beirdo, Ew, Weatehr.com API requires that you display *four* links
[00:09:30] Beirdo: yuck
[00:11:12] kormoc is now known as kormoc_afk
[00:11:40] Beirdo: did you open a new ticket for removal of weather.com stuff?
[00:12:02] iamlindoro: No, I haven't
[00:12:07] iamlindoro: Want I should?
[00:12:16] sphery: iamlindoro / Beirdo : re: #8185 , it was opened /right/ after http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/changeset/23733 of http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/7989 went in
[00:12:20] Beirdo: Probably a good idea so we don't forget
[00:12:23] sphery: so expect some replies
[00:12:55] Beirdo: yup
[00:13:08] Beirdo: well, if we can't use weather.com, all those will need to disappear
[00:13:17] sphery: after all, now you're just being mean to the westerners
[00:13:33] iamlindoro: I think paul will understand, though
[00:13:46] Beirdo: heh
[00:13:50] sphery: yeah, I was under the impression that they weren't allowed, either

[00:14:21] sphery: I'm expecting the replies to be from the OP, not paul
[00:14:36] Beirdo: although I guess someone COULD probe weather.com to see if they deem it as acceptable
[00:14:51] Beirdo: I'd expect "no" as an answer though
[00:15:20] sphery: or no answer
[00:15:26] Beirdo: yeah
[00:15:38] Beirdo: would be better to disable it... and THEN ask
[00:15:52] Beirdo: save a possible "cease and desist" letter
[00:16:12] sphery: we could just make mythweather into a "plugin" that opens a bookmark on your favorite weather site in MythBrowser :)
[00:16:23] Beirdo: heh
[00:16:30] Beirdo: now you're talking nonsense :)
[00:16:34] Beirdo: but I like that idea
[00:17:13] Beirdo: mythbrowser's based on what engine these days?
[00:17:52] iamlindoro: Qt Webkit
[00:18:05] ** iamlindoro sort of wants weather to just be a widget **
[00:18:25] Beirdo: nice. that's related to which "normal" browser?
[00:18:28] Beirdo: any?
[00:18:41] iamlindoro: Safari
[00:18:46] Beirdo: ahh, right
[00:18:47] Beirdo: cool
[00:18:49] iamlindoro: Konqueror, probably
[00:19:06] Beirdo: if it's Safari-related, it should work OK, generally
[00:19:35] Beirdo: I like the idea of making mythweather present a list of bookmarks to hit or something, and use mythbrowser
[00:19:44] Beirdo: sure, it's not as... integrated
[00:19:52] Beirdo: but dang, no more scripts :)
[00:20:21] Beirdo: widgets would be nice too, but still ToS related
[00:20:26] natanojl (natanojl!~jonatan@c83-252-237-63.bredband.comhem.se) has quit (Quit: Quit)
[00:20:59] Beirdo: browser... not so much, if you can use it in Safari, you can use it on your TV in a customized version of Safari, basically
[00:21:12] sphery: Beirdo: Chrome
[00:21:28] Beirdo: Chrome uses WebKit too?
[00:21:31] Beirdo: heh. cool
[00:21:32] sphery: yeah
[00:21:43] Beirdo: it's my main browser these days
[00:21:52] Beirdo: and Safari/iPhone being secondary
[00:21:56] sphery: the one redeeming quality--if they're going to invent a new browser, at least they didn't invent a new rendering engine
[00:22:12] Beirdo: yeah.
[00:22:28] Beirdo: I like chrome though, it's a lot nicer on memory than firefox, usually
[00:22:46] sphery: the separate process thing is nice
[00:22:53] Beirdo: yup
[00:22:53] sphery: but then again, that's (now) FF4
[00:23:23] sphery: I just don't care to use it because it's only Google open
[00:24:02] Beirdo: heh
[00:24:07] Beirdo: you silly boy

[00:25:42] Beirdo: but it's nice to not have to use IE anymore ;)
[00:25:57] Beirdo: that was the "approved" browser at work
[00:26:01] Beirdo: idiots
[00:26:09] sphery: yeah... I've been lucky enough not to have to use Windows, so IE isn't an option

[00:26:23] sphery: but I'll definitely agree Chrome is a better choice than IE
[00:26:34] sphery: and there /is/ a stable version of Chrome on Windows
[00:26:41] Beirdo: heh

[00:33:56] Cubber: what is the best PCI tv capture card that can be easily purchased new today to use with mythtv under linux?
[00:34:00] sphery: looks like they're going their own way
[00:34:16] AriX_ (AriX_!~AriX@c-68-39-4-46.hsd1.nj.comcast.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:34:20] sphery: Cubber: all depends on where you live/what TV standard you're trying to capture
[00:34:28] sphery: Cubber: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki
[00:34:37] Cubber: America, straight from the cable wire
[00:34:37] sphery: or we need more info
[00:34:57] sphery: analog or digital?
[00:35:10] Cubber: there are digital channels available on the wire
[00:35:31] sphery: well, for unencrypted digital, you can use any QAM-supporting digital capture card
[00:35:42] sphery: (look under ATSC devices on the wiki)
[00:35:52] Cubber: this is the card I am currently using, but I am getting alot of random issues with it, like no sound and MAILBOX errors in dmesg http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/AVerMedia_M150-D
[00:35:56] sphery: note that you can't get encrypted digital from your cable co
[00:36:18] sphery: you'd have to use a set-top box and analog capture--so the PVR-150/500 for SDTV or HD-PVR for HDTV
[00:36:35] Cubber: I have a normal flat screen tv that is just connected via the cable wire and it gets quite a few digital channels
[00:36:54] Cubber: oh yah and it gets hd as well on some of the channels
[00:37:09] sphery: so that's an analog SDTV capture card?
[00:37:26] mazda01 (mazda01!~daniel@cpe-173-89-33-87.wi.res.rr.com) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:38:06] Cubber: I belive so it is an old card
[00:38:12] Cubber: an mpeg based card
[00:38:30] sphery: basically, the usual equivalent of that would be the Hauppauge PVR-150. If you want digital, you could get the HVR-1600, which is a single digital tuner and an analog encoder (basically can be used as a digital tuner or a PVR-150)
[00:38:59] sphery: there are lots of others--when it comes to digital capture, though, the different cards are all pretty good and not much difference
[00:39:19] czth (czth!~dbrobins@nat/microsoft/x-yphknwrxawlegaxx) has quit (Quit: Leaving)
[00:39:35] Cubber: can you still get the PVR-150's and whats the difference between them and the 350's
[00:39:38] sphery: best info is at http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/ , though
[00:39:40] Cubber: the issue with my card is the firmware
[00:39:48] Cubber: seems it is just not stable yet
[00:40:36] sphery: the 350 is a waste of money--it has an anachronistic TV out and MPEG-2 decoder for extremely-easy-to-decode-without-the-decoder MPEG-2 (i.e. only standard definition MPEG-2, as recorded by the PVR-350 or PVR-150)
[00:40:50] sphery: the PVR-150 is basically the encoder portion without the decoder
[00:41:08] sphery: you're better off decoding in software or getting something like an nvidia card with VDPAU support
[00:41:40] sphery: i.e. use a real video card (the PVR-350 would be used /instead/ of a video card for video output, so you lose all the capabilities of a real video card)
[00:41:52] Cubber: the system i use is an athalon-xp based machine, only has pci slots and I have an nvidia geforce 7800gt in it
[00:42:15] Cubber: alls I wanna do is record shows in mythtv
[00:42:20] Cubber: then play them back later
[00:42:25] sphery: the PVR-150 and PVR-500 can't be purchased new from Hauppauge, and only remaining-in-stock units can be sold new in the US (so you likely won't find any), but are easy to find on ebay
[00:42:35] sphery: but you can get the HVR-1600 new
[00:42:45] Cubber: I have an old bttv based framegrabber card in there for watching tv on the PC while the mpeg card is recording
[00:43:00] sphery: the Athlon XP system will likely not be able to do HDTV playback
[00:43:10] sphery: so you'll want SDTV
[00:43:12] Cubber: will the 1600 work for my application, direct from the wire?
[00:43:14] sphery: or upgrade your frontend
[00:43:25] Cubber: not an option to upgrade
[00:43:35] Cubber: just want what I have now without the bugs and headaches of the Avermedia card
[00:43:58] sphery: 1600 will give you unencrypted digital channels straight from the wire, and analog channels (either from the wire, if your cable co still has them, or from the output of a set-top box)
[00:44:06] Cubber: I stream to my xboxes running XBMC with the mythtv plugin, so HD content would stream to choppy anyway
[00:44:07] christ_ (christ_!~Billybob@CPE00e04b0b7799-CM00111a59bdac.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:44:30] sphery: yeah, xbox wouldn't be able to keep up with HDTV either
[00:44:56] sphery: if you do digital capture, though, you get what they give you--which, in today's US, tends to be a lot of HDTV
[00:45:18] sphery: with an analog encoder (PVR-150, PVR-500, or analog side of HVR-1600), you get SDTV
[00:45:23] Cubber: so I could still use the 1600 and record at lower levels right?
[00:45:38] Cubber: so the 1600 would do what I want it to and then some
[00:45:46] sphery: only the analog allows control (and for the 1600, that is always SDTV)
[00:46:07] sphery: it does what you want now, but could do digital if you switch in the future
[00:46:11] sphery: but you pay for the digital side, now
[00:46:14] Cubber: thats nice
[00:46:20] Cubber: and that is PCI not PCI express right?9$
[00:46:22] sphery: a PVR-150 on ebay is $20-$30 including shipping
[00:46:31] sphery: an HVR-1600 could be $80+
[00:46:37] sphery: and both are PCI
[00:47:03] Cubber: not a fan of ebay

[00:47:28] Cubber: so the 1600 has full linux kernel support as well as mythtv support?
[00:47:43] sphery: mythtv only cares that it's V4L-supported

[00:48:34] sphery: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.asp . . . ;x=0&y=0
[00:49:02] sphery: PVR-150 is still in the $20 – $30 range on ebay

[00:52:22] Cubber: Thanks for the info

[01:23:46] iamlindoro: It's an ISO of the whole disk, regardless of what you choose
[01:25:56] hipitihop: iamlindoro, sorry my first attempt appeared to auto select title 4 of 5 and I used "perfect" however just playing back the dvd manually clearly showed the rip did not start at the beginning
[01:26:27] hipitihop: so I assumed it hd only ripped one title
[01:27:13] hipitihop: ok, one step back.. what is the typical size of a dvd iso ?
[01:27:36] iamlindoro: sorry, perfect is a vob of the single title
[01:27:52] iamlindoro: Haven't looked at the menu in a while
[01:28:42] hipitihop: and vob is transcoded ?
[01:29:41] iamlindoro: no
[01:31:52] hipitihop: so I have a choice of using "perfect" (vob) which is one title at a time and this will create seperate entries in my video menu/list or I can do ISO of the entire dvd

[01:33:49] hipitihop: I don't mind the seperate titles but I would like to queue up recording of all titles and walk away... however it seems that if I select each title in the ripping menu, it only remembers "perfect" on teh last title selection shown, and all other switch to iso grrr

[01:35:50] wagnerrp: anywhere between 5 and 8GB
[01:36:24] wagnerrp: i just crashed...
[01:36:33] wagnerrp: havent had one of those on linux in a good while
[01:36:46] wagnerrp: halfway through the credits at the end of a movie
[01:36:55] wagnerrp: and the thing just seizes up
[01:36:58] hipitihop: which is not too different to standard def recording in myth for an hour or so
[01:37:42] hipitihop: so I may aswell use full iso rip as long as myth can play that
[01:37:52] wagnerrp: it currently cant over storage groups
[01:37:58] wagnerrp: and why would you want the full ISO?
[01:38:09] wagnerrp: do you frequently use the bonus features?
[01:38:15] wagnerrp: or do you just watch the movie
[01:38:32] jeffery (jeffery!~jeffery@opensuse/member/jefferyfernandez) has joined #mythtv-users
[01:38:37] hipitihop: no don't use them... however an attempt this morning using "perfect" suggests that only a single title is recorded
[01:38:55] wagnerrp: full system crash, the last frame showed with flickering artifacts, and the audio looped over the last half second of audio....
[01:39:07] wagnerrp: correct, a single title, generally the main title, otherwise known as the movie
[01:39:29] sutula (sutula!sutula@nat/hp/x-tjiugabzdwnsrybj) has joined #mythtv-users
[01:39:30] hipitihop: I typically just watch the movie
[01:39:50] wagnerrp: the only time it should have problems is the rare occurrence of a 2-movie disk, or one with multiple angles
[01:39:51] hipitihop: so myth automatically selects the longest title, tyoically the movie
[01:40:42] hipitihop: the particular one I am experimenting with happens to be 2 disc and also multiple titles/segments/chapters
[01:41:01] wagnerrp: you have one movie spanned over two disks?
[01:41:34] hipitihop: so I wanted to queue up all titles, but it does not seem to remember the "perfect" selection once you switch to another title to select it
[01:42:15] wagnerrp: to be honest, ive never actually used the dvd rip/playback/burn capacity of mythtv
[01:42:33] hipitihop: sorry, to be clear... it is a dvd with a series on it and spans two discs
[01:42:44] wagnerrp: short series
[01:42:58] hipitihop: yep, it is called the ascent of money
[01:43:25] Beirdo: ahhh, beer
[01:43:25] wagnerrp: something like that, you may be better off just doing it manually
[01:43:48] wagnerrp: for 'perfect' quality, just cat together the sequences of VOB files on the DVD
[01:43:50] hipitihop: and as for iso and groups, I'm not aware of using groups but when I setup another front end in my bedroom then I will want to play back anything on the backend and you are suggesting iso will not worl
[01:44:15] wagnerrp: hipitihop: 'storage groups' allow mythvideo to stream content directly from the backend
[01:44:30] hipitihop: and that is the default on .22 afaik
[01:44:35] wagnerrp: if youre not using storage groups, you will have to set up your own solution to get the content to the remote frontend
[01:44:38] wagnerrp: typically NFS
[01:44:47] hipitihop: nope, want to use standard stuff
[01:44:59] wagnerrp: that is the advised method in 0.22, but there is no 'default
[01:45:16] wagnerrp: its just two different methods of setting up mythvideo
[01:45:39] justdave: is there a protocol change from 0.22 to 0.23?
[01:45:49] mzb: # mount myisodir /overhere
[01:45:50] wagnerrp: yeah, four of em
[01:45:50] hipitihop: anyway, when I get to that I ll sort it... so it seems I will have to do each title manually since there is a bug in ui and it does not remember the perfect setting
[01:46:11] justdave: so if I update any of my machines I need to update all of them?
[01:46:17] wagnerrp: justdave: as always
[01:46:45] justdave: (the package repo I've been following just picked up 0.23 and I did a double-take :)
[01:47:16] wagnerrp: not yet officially released, but its perfectly fine for a stable install
[01:47:37] wagnerrp: correction, six protocol bumps since 0.22
[01:47:44] wagnerrp: from 50 to 56
[01:47:54] ** justdave sorta wonders why the maintainer didn't mention it on his blog yet **
[01:47:59] wagnerrp: and 10 schema bumps
[01:48:26] justdave: usually when he bumps the myth version he makes a blog post with any special instructions for upgrading (like if a db update script needs to be run on the backend or anything)
[01:48:49] ** justdave is off to browse the wiki **
[01:49:13] wagnerrp: there is no db update script
[01:49:32] wagnerrp: for as long as i remember, schema updates have always been handled by the backend
[01:49:52] justdave: yeah, seems like it was for 0.22, it just did it the first time you ran it
[01:50:14] wagnerrp: and 0.21, and 0.20.2, and 0.20, and 0.19, and....
[01:50:30] justdave: I could swear there was something I had to do for 0.21 -> 0.22 though.
[01:50:37] justdave: oh, storage groups, that's what it was
[01:50:53] wagnerrp: there was a switch from Latin-1 to UTF-8, that caused a lot of people database troubles
[01:51:10] justdave: because the way storage groups got done changed, that had to have the config double-checked after the upgrade
[01:51:49] Beirdo: 3616 bytes of firmware. wow. I even have a bit of space to spare ;)
[01:52:00] wagnerrp: mythtv did not do anything to switch from local files to storage groups
[01:52:05] wagnerrp: it was up to you to make that switch
[01:52:16] justdave: wagnerrp: right, that's what I'm remembering reading about with that upgrade
[01:52:33] wagnerrp: it was also not required to make the switch
[01:52:38] justdave: i.e. "if you want to take advantage of this you need to go fix it after you upgrade"
[01:52:39] wagnerrp: as local files still work just fine in 0.23
[01:53:00] wagnerrp: not so much 'fix', as 'make this change'
[01:53:27] justdave: all my frontends have the videos directory nfs-mounted, so local storage works fine for me

[02:02:40] ** iamlindoro whistles softly **
[02:03:03] iamlindoro: Now that we're off to such a good start...
[02:03:05] asymptote: to where does the remote transmit?
[02:03:07] asymptote: oh look
[02:03:13] asymptote: look who it is
[02:03:16] wagnerrp: it transmits to a receiver
[02:03:19] asymptote: ok
[02:03:23] asymptote: so you need a separate part
[02:03:31] asymptote: I was curious if it somehow goes through the tv or something
[02:03:37] wagnerrp: generally you get when you purchase a remote designed for an HTPC
[02:03:44] asymptote: k
[02:03:50] asymptote: I figured so – just curious
[02:03:57] wagnerrp: there ARE mechanisms supposed to allow that
[02:04:13] wagnerrp: old proprietary mechanisms like Sony's S-Link
[02:04:13] asymptote: "allow that"...
[02:04:23] mzb: like the telepathic module ;)
[02:04:29] wagnerrp: which have given way to more open mechanisms like HDMI-CEC
[02:04:29] asymptote: what is this you speak of
[02:04:44] asymptote: I'll have to google this HDMI-CEC
[02:04:46] wagnerrp: but i dont think any of those are directly usable
[02:05:02] asymptote: but like an IR keyboard usually has a USN receiver you plug into the machine
[02:05:05] wagnerrp: at least i have only heard of one $100 in-line device to let you use CEC with a PC
[02:05:07] asymptote: same concept w/ the IR remote right
[02:05:23] wagnerrp: correct, you need some sort of IR receiver
[02:05:27] asymptote: k
[02:05:29] asymptote: understood
[02:05:38] asymptote: I was just curious
[02:05:54] asymptote: thanks for making me move to a diff channel

[02:35:49] iamlindoro: So either the user running MBE is not mythtv, or the information in mysql.txt is invalid
[02:35:54] ** iamlindoro blames packaging **
[02:36:02] justdave: probably.
[02:36:50] iamlindoro: I claim ignorance when it comes to what they jam into which package, and especially what *buntu does with database configuration
[02:37:06] iamlindoro: Every time I try to understand I end up bleeding from the eyes, ears, nose, and anus
[02:37:17] justdave: it's actually looking for /.mythtv

[02:38:23] Beirdo: you sure you didn't do mythtv-setup as root?
[02:38:30] iamlindoro: I'm guessing maybe a broken environment/home variable for the mythtv user hen
[02:38:31] iamlindoro: er then
[02:38:34] Beirdo: that's not missing a ~, that's root's home dir
[02:38:48] justdave: root's home dir is /root/
[02:38:52] Beirdo: looks to me like you did the setup as root, then ran as non-root
[02:39:14] iamlindoro: yeah, on ubuntu root's ~ is /root/
[02:39:14] jya: jastdave: installer is the same as the one in mythbuntu... so not my bug...

[02:44:37] Beirdo: less likely to be borked
[02:44:45] iamlindoro: shouldn't matter-- the backend should always be parsing ~/.mythtv of whoemever runs it

[02:54:51] iamlindoro: justdave, If trunk, I might have an explanation
[02:54:58] justdave: 0.23 from jya's repo
[02:55:04] iamlindoro: ah... nm then
[02:55:29] iamlindoro: was going to say that yesterday there was a refactor of command line parsing in trunk that could very well have caused what you're seeing
[02:55:34] jya: 0.23-fxes packages are identical to mythbuntu ones. I haven't changed a thing yet
[02:57:14] justdave: I figured there might be a few loose ends since it's in testing still, but I like to experiment. :)
[02:57:40] justdave: all seems to be working now though.
[02:58:26] justdave: you're backporting the lucid package, right?
[02:58:34] justdave: pretty sure karmic still only has 0.22 in it
[03:10:37] jya: justdave: not really backporting.. Just compiled for 9.04, 9.10 and 10.04
[03:10:53] jya: that's in the testing repository too
[03:13:38] justdave: yeah, said that about 4 lines up. :) I knew it was probably risky, but I was in a daring mood tonight :)
[03:13:57] justdave: that and I'm on vacation from work this week, so my weekend would be free to clean up any mess if I had to
[03:14:16] justdave: (but it doesn't look like I have much to clean up, all the stuff I care about seems to work still)

[04:02:35] iamlindoro: For the rationale on why this doesn't make sense, on top of not functioning or being tested on any modern version of Myth. In short, per the SD developer in the thread, the runtime information bears no direct relationship to the scheduling information.

[04:05:47] iamlindoro: maybe/hopefully when we go all-GL for the UI, if that day ever comes
[04:06:04] sphery: even if it does, I'll continue to use a TV or monitor
[04:06:11] wagnerrp: basically, mythtv was designed to go full screen on a tv, and be used by a remote
[04:06:14] sphery: What kind of resolution do you get on a fly, anyway?
[04:06:22] wagnerrp: being able to scale by that is not high priority

[04:08:59] wagnerrp: iamlindoro: if you figure out a way to find the nearest keyframe to a cutpoint, let me know
[04:09:12] wagnerrp: i wanted to put something like that into mythfs and/or the bindings
[04:09:21] wagnerrp: but couldnt figure out a way to do it without actually processing the video
[04:09:33] iamlindoro: wagnerrp, I think I have some sort of implementation of that in the old avidemux project patch

[04:15:36] wagnerrp: nevermind
[04:15:45] wagnerrp: the keyframes are ordered by frame number
[04:16:00] wagnerrp: for some reason last time i looked at it, i thought they were ordered by keyframe number
[04:16:30] wagnerrp: that should be fairly easy enough to do
[04:19:22] iamlindoro: Pretty sure what I did was take the frame number of the cutpoint and find the nearest seektable entry for it
[04:20:47] wagnerrp: yeah, i was thinking the keyframes were 'mark'ed 1,2,3,4,... but thats not the case
[04:21:13] wagnerrp: the way it _actually_ is, its not that difficult to do clipping at the keyframe

[04:23:05] sphery: ah
[04:23:16] wagnerrp: so i just find the nearest keyframe inside the cutpoints
[04:23:22] wagnerrp: and recompute the space
[04:23:27] wagnerrp: s/space/size/
[04:23:28] sphery: cool
[04:24:43] wagnerrp: although more important right now is a way to handle changing file size
[04:25:15] wagnerrp: and im thinking i might disable the 'Video' mount until the recorded/videometadata refactor

[04:37:50] [R]: klk: back or front
[04:38:52] klk: [R]: both
[04:39:06] [R]: what kind of video
[04:39:35] klk: I've got an hdhomerun, and will eventually have 2 hd-pvrs
[04:40:37] [R]: well i belive the video decoding libs benefit from 64bit slightly
[04:40:40] [R]: specially for h264
[04:42:33] klk: does flash still have issues with 64 bit? I plan to mess around with the mythnetvision plugin
[04:43:06] [R]: adobe has had a 64bit flash plugin for years
[04:44:06] wagnerrp: i do not believe there is any significant advantage to running the frontend or backend on 64-bit
[04:44:24] wagnerrp: any encoding/decoding benefit is going to be on the order of a couple percent
[04:44:27] [R]: i thought there was some 64bit asm optimizations
[04:44:35] [R]: every extra second helps!
[04:44:35] [R]: haha
[04:44:53] klk: if my machine needs a 2% benefit then i need a new machine :-)
[04:44:53] wagnerrp: however, i see no reason to recommend someone stick with 32-bit either
[04:45:07] wagnerrp: i run 64-bit on everything but my laptop (an old P3)
[04:45:16] [R]: p3 laptop? whats wrong with you
[04:45:37] wagnerrp: i use it for little more than an X terminal
[04:45:52] wagnerrp: its got a nice screen, halfway decent battery, and thats all i really need
[04:46:15] klk: thanks for your input
[04:46:59] wagnerrp: anyway, i dont believe there is actually any advantage directly from running 64-bit
[04:47:12] wagnerrp: i dont think video decoding does any such large number calculations to make it worthwile
[04:48:06] wagnerrp: the 'improved asm' would come from the inclusion of 3dnowext and sse3/4 that came with those architectures, as well as the increased register space
[04:48:25] wagnerrp: i dont know if any of ffmpeg uses those off hand

[12:58:36] jarle: Go into the settings in the frontend, and look in videosettings. You'll the see path there. Guess it uses the video/ folder by default, so you could just put your .iso there..

[13:00:04] edomeda: jarle, great thanks, trying that now. One question, I have 240 DVDs (several TV series) is there a better way to organize them? Maybe sub-folders?
[13:01:16] jarle: edomeda: whatever you prefer, a subfolder for each video, or all videos in the root...
[13:01:49] edomeda: I thought I saw a cool (plug-in maybe) where it looked like a bunch of DVD covers, then they clicked on it and it had a dvd info page with rating/etc.
[13:04:24] edomeda: jarle, sorry, I've spent a week learning about myth, so might not know all these noobish questions
[13:04:53] edomeda: I had read on more than one website that 0.22 couldn't play iso to the FE
[13:05:30] jarle: edomeda: this is just one of the ways mythvideo can display you videos. You can switch how it is displayed by the touch of a button. Doesn't matter how you file-layout looks like.
[13:06:25] edomeda: jarle, yeah, like this shot: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/File:Blue-abstract.png
[13:06:56] edomeda: jarle, are those iso files? And if so, where does it store the metadata for info/title/rating/etc.?

[13:22:58] edomeda: jarle, FE just returns without an error after I press play, but the console shows it's trying to open /dev/dvd
[13:24:03] jarle: edomeda: ahhh, the videofiles must be located on the frontend machine.
[13:24:55] jarle: edomeda: you could have one central video storage that shares the videofiles to the frontends using samba or nfs
[13:25:09] edomeda: jarle, umm, I can't, I've got 2TB of dvds on my server
[13:25:24] jarle: edomeda: but the video file has to be accessable via the the filesystem on the frontend you want to play it with.

[13:26:48] jarle: edomeda: the file can be whereever you want, as long as it is accessable in the frontends filesystem.
[13:27:16] edomeda: jarle, right, but to get the listing on the FE with the covers/metadata/etc it needs to be on the BE right?
[13:27:42] jarle: I have video/ from my fileserver mounted as /mnt/video on all my frontends.
[13:28:24] jarle: edomeda: no, the frontend will store the metadata on the db on the backend.
[13:29:05] jarle: edomeda: just make sure that all fronends see the videofiles in the same dir.
[13:29:18] edomeda: jarle, I'm confused then, since the DVD wasn't visible to my BE when I first did it, but it shows on my FE
[13:29:47] edomeda: jarle, sorry, wasn't visible to my FE (was on BE) when I did it first
[13:29:50] jarle: edomeda: different macines?
[13:29:57] edomeda: jarle, yes
[13:30:35] jarle: edomeda: which version of myth?
[13:30:37] edomeda: jarle, BE is 6TB box running 0.23, I have 4 FEs
[13:32:33] jarle: edomeda: I'm on 0.22 so something might have changed in 0.23, but the way it used to be is how I described it. Anyway, try mounting you video share to /mnt/video on all frontends, and set all the frontends to use /mnt/video for videos, and the re-scan...

[13:34:30] edomeda: jarle, it sees the video, but the player does nothing. :-)
[13:35:25] jarle: edomeda: go through the wiki I linked to and see if you have everything correct..

[13:40:26] mazda01: trying out mythvideo and storage groups because apparently mythweb requires it. so my question is why does mythtv-setup keep telling me other clients are connected to the database when they are not.
[13:41:58] mazda01: it wants to upgrade the video schema. and I have a choice of exit or upgrade. but it does say that other clients are connected. I donm't stop mythtv-backend because I thought envoking mythtv-setup actaully requests that the backend be shutdown and I hit yes.
[13:43:19] noii: hey justinh: sphery: thanks for your tips on trying to stop my mythtv setup from recording things multiple times. I tried running optimize_mythdb.pl but I'm still struggling to fix the issue. My guide data comes from EIT I think, and looks identical for description in two upcoming recordings, yet they are both due to record. Puzzling
[13:46:19] mazda01: nevermind, Im stupid and don't know what I am asking. OK, i am at a mythtv-frontend upstairs, NOT on the backend. I click on the frontend program, go into advanced, then media settings, and then video and that's where it tells me it wants to upgrade video schema but that there are other clients connected. No other frontends in the house are on at all. only the one I am trying to setup mythtvideo on. should I just do the schema upgrad
[13:46:19] mazda01: e and not worry about message about other clients.
[13:48:55] dewman: mazda01, I am no expert on mythtv, but I do have experience with DB upgrades, every time I do a upgrade to a DB I want to make sure that no one is connected to the database, you never know if a client has a table locked and if they do then the upgrade might fail. The upgrade is pretty quick on mythtv..

[13:58:14] noii: ah, it seems to be shows without a subtitle that are recording multiple times. changing to "subtitle then description" seems to fix this
[14:00:35] mazda01: dewman, is there a command I can run in mysql to see who it connected?
[14:01:12] mazda01: is connected
[14:03:54] dewman: mazda01, I'm a oracle person but I think you can do something like this. from mysql prompt SHOW FULL PROCESSLIST\G
[14:08:36] mazda01: dewman, using phpmyadmin, there is actually a processes tab. it shows no processes running. i wonder why mythtvideo says that there are clients connected.

[14:41:16] Arpman: its in a Sony Viao
[14:41:34] Arpman: ivtv detects it as a 150
[14:41:34] Jester-Droid: are u using the tuner to tune signal or capture from a stb?
[14:42:07] Jester-Droid: yeah its essentially 2 150's
[14:42:07] Arpman: tune signal (this is my first project so Im a bit confused why its not working)
[14:43:12] Arpman: i tried cat /dev/video0 > /tmp/test.mpg

[14:43:58] Arpman: yeah
[14:44:19] Jester-Droid: i dont think this is ur prob but always keep in mind.. sometimes pci slots dont work right or dont seat right

[17:31:07] sphery: mazda01: I think you'll need to edit the title (not filename) so that MythVideo uses the correct name for searching
[17:31:35] mazda01: agreed, sorry. my point is that I used windows software to rip my dvd collection to avi files and I saved them in 2 parts. is there a way i can have mythvideo tmdb.py get metadata for both movie.1.avi and movie.2.avi
[17:31:37] sphery: also, bracketed info in filenames may be ignored when creating titles (so could do something like movie_[1].avi)
[17:32:08] sphery: but basically, I'm 99.9999% positive you'll have to edit something (either filename or title)
[17:32:20] mazda01: sphery, ok, next thing is that I am no bash script person and I don't know how to write regex search and mass renames. can you help with that?

[17:42:06] mazda01: sphery, rename s/.1.avi/.[1].avi/ *.1.avi DID the trick. now the question is, will mythvideo show 2 movies? or will it know to "stack" them like xbmc does. PLEASE don't get me wrong, I know mythtv is not XBMC. only referring to something else that I am familar with
[17:44:57] jamesd2: Jester05, 64bit oses use more resources, so either run 32 bit or giving it more resources... unless you are doing really complex large problems 32 bit is better especially in guests.
[17:45:29] jamesd2: and if the problems are really that big better to run on bare metal

[17:47:38] sphery: If you're running a 32-bit guest in VirtualBox, you're using all 32-bit libs in your multilib host install
[17:47:43] wagnerrp: mazda01: mythvideo will not do it automatically
[17:47:47] sphery: so you're not necessarily sharing the already-loaded libs

[17:48:06] wagnerrp: you have to tell mythvideo that the first video should always play the second video
[17:48:06] Jester05: hmm
[17:48:10] cesman: mazda01: is you videos are multiple parts, why not merge them? Yes, mythvideo will "stack" them.
[17:48:11] wagnerrp: then makr the second video hidden
[17:48:22] Jester05: I just got my DROID set up as a myth remote and I love it!
[17:48:31] wagnerrp: or do what cesman suggests
[17:48:45] wagnerrp: use virtualdub (windows) or avidemux (linux) to just merge the files
[17:48:47] sphery: mazda01: and, TTBOMK, when you go into the edit metadata page for the first video, it will guess that it should play the 2nd video next, so if you save the metadata (even without making changes), it will work
[17:48:52] wagnerrp: should take 1–2 minutes per file
[17:49:05] sphery: or better, use wagnerrp's approach :)

[17:50:09] Jester05: is there a way to do x-forwarding so that I could use my smartphone at a frontend so long as I'm locally connected?
[17:50:23] wagnerrp: your smartphone has an X server?
[17:50:40] Jester05: well if I were to figure out a way to put linux mobile on it
[17:50:51] Jester05: I'm not sure, just asking if theres any possible way to do it
[17:50:58] jamesd2: more likely web+flash would work better and have a greater chance of workig.
[17:51:02] sphery: Jester05: /at/ a frontend or /as/ a frontend?
[17:51:03] wagnerrp: yes... and forwarding X is the hard part of that plan
[17:51:24] Jester05: yeah kind of what i figured
[17:51:33] Jester05: I just wish there were a way to use it as a frontend
[17:51:35] cesman: mazda01: avimerge is part of the "transcode" package (if your distro has it)
[17:51:54] wagnerrp: all it takes to 'forward X' is to set the DISPLAY environment variable to some other machine
[17:51:55] ** sphery doesn't understand the desire to use a 3 1/2 in TV screen **
[17:51:56] jamesd2: X forwardnign wouldn't give you audio.. so you then need a audio server, so not really a solution...
[17:52:09] Jester05: yeah true
[17:52:12] wagnerrp: you likely have to take care of security lockouts
[17:52:19] wagnerrp: or you can just use SSH to handle that for you
[17:52:35] sphery: for those who think using their phone as a TV is a good idea: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/04/01/apple_headmount_patent/
[17:52:39] Jester05: it'd be nice if there were some method for it tho
[17:52:59] wagnerrp: Jester05: understand that X forwarding is NOT a solution for video
[17:53:05] sphery: definitely
[17:53:07] Jester05: yeah I know what you mean wagnerrp
[17:53:12] wagnerrp: all video scaling is done on the SERVER side
[17:53:20] sphery: so would allow you to use your phone /at/ a frontend, but not /as/ a frontend
[17:53:21] jamesd2: Jester05, .22 and later have flash intergrated, even though its alpha/beta, i find it works quite well
[17:53:26] wagnerrp: which means youll be sending full resolution uncompressed YUV over the network
[17:53:32] Jester05: well why not just create something like the windows app for mythtv but make it for win mobile or the droid
[17:53:40] wagnerrp: standard resolution video will saturate a 10/100 link
[17:53:54] sphery: wagnerrp: likely you'd be sending full-resolution uncompressed RGB/ARGB, right?
[17:53:59] sphery: with X forwarding
[17:54:04] sphery: i.e. already decoded
[17:54:09] sphery: and displayed
[17:54:16] wagnerrp: sphery: mythtv does not do colorspace conversion
[17:54:24] sphery: but the screen is RGB
[17:54:28] jamesd2: and X is very latency influanced, so wifi plus high bandwidth isn't going to play nice anyway..
[17:54:32] wagnerrp: but Xv takes YUV
[17:54:32] RobertLaptop (RobertLaptop!~RobertLap@70.17.252.152) has joined #mythtv-users
[17:54:34] sphery: and MythTV isn't sending the video, X forwarding is
[17:54:52] wagnerrp: 'X forwarding' isnt some weird application
[17:55:01] sphery: also possible you'd send only the color key
[17:55:02] unixSnob (unixSnob!~unixSnob@starfury.spearlink.com) has joined #mythtv-users
[17:55:04] wagnerrp: youre just pointing myth at the remote server, rather than the local one
[17:55:32] wagnerrp: chances are the droid does not support Xv anyway
[17:55:40] wagnerrp: which means youll be using X11 or XSHM
[17:55:50] wagnerrp: and youll have no scaling
[17:55:51] cesman: if you want to get video to your phone on the fly, why not use mediaserv
[17:55:59] Jester05: I think using flash could work tho
[17:56:06] Jester05: I can easily watch flash over even bad wifi
[17:56:10] wagnerrp: basically.... X forwarding will not work
[17:56:21] Jester05: over good wifi and I can run my standard def frontends

[18:12:13] skd5aner: sorry for wrong Copy and Paste
[18:13:14] RDV_Linux: Jester05: If you are using 0.23 then you should be able to just rescan in MythVideo and the connection will be made to your metadata automatically due to the new hash field logic.
[18:13:52] RDV_Linux: Jester05: If you are not using 0.23 then Jamu is the other option.
[18:14:04] skd5aner: RDV_Linux: regarding the new hash code, does that only hash on new video import? or will it hash existing videos?
[18:14:32] tgm4883: I would assume existing as well
[18:14:39] wagnerrp: it will hash any existing video that has no hash
[18:14:54] wagnerrp: so if you want to move your content
[18:15:03] wagnerrp: upgrade to 0.23, let it hash all your existing content
[18:15:16] wagnerrp: move youre content, and then rescan, and let it match up all the new paths to the old hashes
[18:15:17] RDV_Linux: skd5aner: Also Jamu adds then hash value if it does not exist
[18:15:18] skd5aner: ahhh, I'm guessing that's why the schema update took so long when I launced mythvideo for the first time after the .23-fixes upgrade
[18:15:30] wagnerrp: skd5aner: correct
[18:15:33] sphery: heh, from a users list post: http://www.pbs.org/cringely/pulpit/2004/pulpi . . . _000460.html (published September 30, 2004) -> "What's happening in Andrew Greig's neighborhood is going to happen in three to five years in many neighborhoods." I must have missed that.

[18:19:20] wagnerrp: skd5aner: sure, thats the cable bulk licensing fee

[18:20:14] sphery: wagnerrp: he's selling to his neighborhood
[18:20:15] wagnerrp: yeah, could i just install a dish, lnb, some hardware, and license that content for personal use for $0.26/mo
[18:21:00] skd5aner: oh, I'm guessing your referincing an email or something
[18:21:22] wagnerrp: so he has basically set up his own cable company, based off a distributed mythtv install
[18:21:27] sphery: wagnerrp: pretty sure there's a min # of users for that rate

[18:21:55] mazda01: is there a way to clear mythvideo so that I can rescan? currently i have a bunch of movies in there before I did a mass rename and for some reason it didn't remove the movies that are no longer named that
[18:22:11] wagnerrp: mazda01: yes it did
[18:22:15] mazda01: this is on a frontend. I am using storage groups
[18:22:32] wagnerrp: if you are using 0.22, it would only not clear those entries if there was a file of that name in that path
[18:23:00] wagnerrp: if you are using 0.23, it would only not clear those entries if it found that exact file somewhere in one of the storage group paths
[18:23:28] mazda01: wagnerrp, example. previously I had movie called movie.1.avi and movie.2.avi so within mythvideo, the 2 entries are movie 1 and movie 2. well the files were renamed to movie[1].avi and movie[2].avi. shouldn't it have changed the thing
[18:23:54] wagnerrp: what version of mythtv are' you using?
[18:24:01] mazda01: wagnerrp, well the mythvideo name and the actual name of the movie file are different.
[18:24:06] mazda01: .23-fixes in lucid lynx
[18:24:27] mazda01: wagnerrp, from mythbuntu auto builds NOT trunk though
[18:24:39] wagnerrp: so theres your problem, it found the exact file under the new name
[18:24:49] wagnerrp: move those files outside of the scan path
[18:24:50] wagnerrp: rescan
[18:24:53] wagnerrp: and move them back in
[18:25:11] mazda01: wagnerrp, i did rescan already. how can it find an exact file when the name changed.
[18:25:23] mazda01: wagnerrp, move what?
[18:25:36] wagnerrp: have you not been following the discussion in here just a couple minutes ago?
[18:25:37] sphery: hash
[18:25:42] wagnerrp: sphery++
[18:26:00] mazda01: wagnerrp, no, i guess imissed it.
[18:26:11] wagnerrp: scroll back about 10 minutes
[18:26:27] sphery: mazda01: to clear everything you could just remove all but an empty dir from the storage group/video directory
[18:27:08] wagnerrp: wow... that was an hour ago you were asking for help
[18:27:15] wagnerrp: i thought that was like 20 minutes ago
[18:27:26] mazda01: sphery, what then do a scan? that would clear the movies from the table, then re-add the directories holding my movies, then rescan?
[18:27:42] wagnerrp: mazda01: mythvideo now hashes the files
[18:27:49] wagnerrp: and when you scan, and it finds files missing
[18:28:00] wagnerrp: it will try to match those missing files with any new found files through the hash
[18:28:04] mazda01: wagnerrp, i asked about an hour about renaming, i figured that out and then went outside to do something else.
[18:28:17] mazda01: wagnerrp, oh, i see.
[18:28:19] wagnerrp: when you renamed the files, it simply found them under the new name
[18:28:32] wagnerrp: so you have to temporarily move them somewhere that mythvideo cannot see
[18:28:44] wagnerrp: to let them be completely flushed
[18:28:57] mazda01: wagnerrp, understood. thanks so much for your help
[18:33:31] skd5aner: well, just found another segfault – I was doing something similiar to mazda01 (for different reasons), moved my video folders, recreated them empty, and rescanned. When the scan progress bar got to 100% – Segfault
[18:34:33] wagnerrp: skd5aner: got a coredump?
[18:34:42] wagnerrp: there was a ticket a while back on trac about that
[18:34:53] skd5aner: unfortunately, no... I'm wondering how much effort it would be to recreate it...
[18:34:56] wagnerrp: but it was closed because the reporter never responded, and no one could reproduce it
[18:34:58] skd5aner: let me see if it's easily done
[18:35:25] skd5aner: any extra -v options you think would help?

[18:38:49] skd5aner: let me see what I can come up with
[18:38:51] sphery: mazda01: yeah, empty dir, scan, add real dirs, rescan

[18:41:04] ** sphery wishes that #8329 asked before implementing **
[18:41:33] wagnerrp: hehe
[18:41:43] wagnerrp: nothing like reimplementing tech from the 80s
[18:41:48] sphery: yeah
[18:42:04] sphery: had he done it like in the frontend, I wouldn't have a problem with it
[18:42:22] sphery: but his solution is much more cumbersome and tries to make mythbackend into a logrotate app
[18:42:53] sphery: If he changes the impl, I'll make sure it goes in. If he doesn't, I likely will.
[18:43:15] sphery: but I'd rather he do it since there are a lot of other things that are higher priority to me
[18:43:25] skd5aner: hmmm, never done the coredumps before, just backtraces – I need to do both to track this one down?
[18:43:37] sphery: as the backend logs are tiny--only the frontend logs get out of control (and only with bad video, generally)
[18:43:42] wagnerrp: skd5aner: how do you do a backtrace without a coredump?
[18:43:50] sphery: skd5aner: just a backtrace, but you can use a coredump to get the backtrace
[18:44:05] skd5aner: wagnerrp: I've never done it that way?
[18:44:18] wagnerrp: sphery: speak for yourself
[18:44:20] sphery: otherwise, just connect gdb to mythfrontend and grab the trace when it segfaults
[18:44:33] wagnerrp: i got a couple dozen megs of backend logs last tuesday
[18:44:36] skd5aner: sphery: that's the way I've always done it
[18:44:40] sphery: wagnerrp: megs...
[18:44:49] sphery: wagnerrp: I'm talking gigs = out of control :)

[18:45:04] sphery: skd5aner: 2 different approaches
[18:45:12] wagnerrp: the backend printing the program table, and complaining that it could not find CBS in it
[18:45:13] sphery: wagnerrp: from bad video?
[18:45:20] sphery: ahhh
[18:45:21] [R] ([R]!~rbox@unaffiliated/rbox) has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
[18:45:27] sphery: time for a rescan?
[18:45:32] wagnerrp: oddly, no
[18:45:37] RDV_Linux (RDV_Linux!~doug@CPE001195554bb4-CM00111a59bd9e.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com) has quit (Remote host closed the connection)
[18:45:38] wagnerrp: no idea what the problem is
[18:45:43] sphery: time to kick the CBS transmitter
[18:45:46] wagnerrp: i checked later that night and could record CBS just fine
[18:45:48] sphery: (or engineer?)
[18:46:13] wagnerrp: is it possible the cableco switched the channel location for a single episode?
[18:46:28] wagnerrp: or maybe encrypted it for no good reason?
[18:46:31] sphery: I had a 6GiB frontend log after running LiveTV for 20hrs or so--when I had the audio output otherwise occupied
[18:46:37] sphery: gave constant stream of audio errors
[18:46:44] sphery: that's out of control
[18:46:59] sphery: my backend logs are always in the hundreds of megabytes range tops
[18:47:14] sphery: of course, I'm not using stupid verbose levels, either
[18:47:23] sphery: (like many users seem to be doing--even without realizing it)
[18:47:41] sphery: not to say you are--as an error is typically printed at -v important,general
[18:48:10] tink: i need to do a rebuild on my production systems, hows the latest RC looking?
[18:48:16] tink is now known as meshe
[18:48:19] sphery: better than 0.22-fixes
[18:48:31] ** sphery needs to catch up on The Guild **
[18:48:43] sphery: meshe: I recommend 0.23-fixes over 0.22-fixes
[18:48:51] meshe: thanks sphery
[18:48:51] sphery: (don't do the rc, do the real 0.23-fixes branch)
[18:49:14] meshe: any idea if that's what mythbuntu is building off of?
[18:49:30] sphery: yeah, daily builds are -fixes
[18:49:35] meshe: sweet
[18:49:37] sphery: http://www.mythbuntu.org/auto-builds
[18:50:35] meshe: another boot drive died again
[18:51:49] skd5aner: Awesome – can't replicate the segfault :P
[18:51:55] skd5aner: sorry guys, I tried
[18:52:11] sphery: well, we appreciate the effort, nonetheless
[18:52:43] sphery: it may well be one of the known issues with disappearing things that are selected
[18:52:48] sphery: due to mythui issues
[18:53:00] skd5aner: I'll look on the upside, it gives the devs more time to look at the other backtrace I submitted this morning :)
[18:53:01] sphery: if so, a new bt wouldn't be useful, anyway
[18:53:07] sphery: heh
[18:53:27] sphery: yeah, one looked like OSD breakage--where the OSD is being thrown out
[18:53:33] sphery: the other seemed to be in the decoder stuff
[18:53:55] skd5aner: my tickets?
[18:54:18] sphery: yeah
[18:54:32] sphery: gdb.a is the one that will likely be fixed, if either
[18:54:53] skd5aner: yea – I know 7709's been closed for a while, but still wanted to report back that the problem didn't transcend into .23
[18:55:02] sphery: any chance you could try playing back the same video you played in gdb.a.txt in current SVN trunk of ffplay?
[18:55:08] skd5aner: ah, the two different backtraces...
[18:55:21] skd5aner: sphery: I knew someone was going to ask that... lol
[18:55:30] sphery: yeah, 7709 update is appreciated, too--if nothing else, it gives other users who find it hope/a plan
[18:55:36] sphery: heh :)
[18:55:46] skd5aner: sphery: honestly, I'd like to but current ffpmpeg trunk doesn't like nuvexport too well
[18:56:25] sphery: is the linked file you uploaded the one from a?
[18:56:41] skd5aner: Uploading the other now, and then I'll tell you for sure
[18:57:45] sphery: 2010-04–10 11:03:16.906 Set video sync frame interval to 66666 <- wonder if it's related to http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/8189
[18:58:29] sphery: hmmm... a is also OSD-related
[18:58:36] sphery: #3 0x00007ffff75d1f7a in OSD::SetFrameInterval (this=0x46a7710, frint=66666) at osd.cpp:211
[18:59:05] wagnerrp: sphery: if you have two users watching the same show on livetv as is currently being recorded by a rule, it wont automatically use the recording will it?
[18:59:25] wagnerrp: s/two users/a user/
[18:59:49] sphery: yeah, I don't think it's related to #8189
[18:59:59] sphery: wagnerrp: nope
[19:00:05] sphery: livetv is locked to a card
[19:00:12] sphery: (input, technically)
[19:00:17] sphery: so you'd record 2 copies
[19:00:21] skd5aner: sphery: updated #8326...
[19:00:25] sphery: that way there's no problem when one changes channel
[19:00:32] wagnerrp: right
[19:00:59] sphery: and we don't end up switching to the less-prefferred input (i.e. one that's remote) just because the local guy changes channel first
[19:01:13] sphery: wagnerrp: some guy on the list is rewriting it to do it the other way
[19:01:17] sphery: I'm not a fan of the plan
[19:01:44] skd5aner: the non "a" files go with MVI_1141 and the ".a." files go with MVI_0613
[19:01:56] wagnerrp: just writing up a response to someone wanting to do a commercial mythtv installation on mythtvtalk
[19:03:13] sphery: wagnerrp: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/424819#424819
[19:04:18] skd5aner: stepping away for a while
[19:04:22] sphery: wagnerrp: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/424710#424710 (note that they're implementing on 0.21-fixes)
[19:04:28] sphery: skd5aner: thanks for the updated link
[19:04:58] skd5aner: np – happy to provide more details if needed
[19:05:31] sphery: the ffplay thing probably isn't even necessary if it's OSD code
[19:05:36] sphery: so I think we have all we need, now
[19:16:00] ** mag0o ponders getting a revo now that the big tv is in the living room **
[19:25:46] trumee: is there a way to delete the whole tv series in one go instead of deleting indivdiualr recordings
[19:25:56] wagnerrp: add the series to a playlist
[19:25:59] wagnerrp: delete the playlist
[19:26:46] trumee: how do i add all the recordings in a playlist?
[19:27:02] wagnerrp: hit 'm', its one of the options

[19:32:50] KungFuJesus: So I just tried to scan for changes with myth video and suddenly got a bunch of duplicate entries
[19:32:58] KungFuJesus: anybody have any idea what that could be?
[19:33:14] wagnerrp: you have both storage groups and local folders defined
[19:33:34] KungFuJesus: the default storage group is /myth/ and /myth2
[19:33:51] KungFuJesus: the mythvideo directory is /myth/video
[19:33:55] KungFuJesus: it didn't do it until just today
[19:34:21] wagnerrp: the 'Default' storage group is for recordings
[19:34:26] KungFuJesus: correct
[19:34:27] wagnerrp: mythvideo uses the 'Videos' storage group
[19:34:31] KungFuJesus: I have no video storage group
[19:34:34] KungFuJesus: whatsoever
[19:34:44] wagnerrp: then you simply have duplicate files
[19:34:59] KungFuJesus: lol, that's definitely not the case
[19:35:03] wagnerrp: or you are using an old pre-release version of 0.22
[19:35:19] KungFuJesus: let me go to information
[19:35:20] wagnerrp: and have scanned twice, without leaving mythvideo and letting it refresh its internal table
[19:35:48] KungFuJesus: frontend is 23069
[19:36:07] wagnerrp: of what branch?
[19:36:08] sphery: wagnerrp: heh, seems danielk wasn't afraid to make it official that it /must/ be done with SIGHUP, like the frontend does.
[19:36:31] wagnerrp: sphery: the backend allows SIGHUP as well
[19:36:40] wagnerrp: i dont see any use for anything that ticket does
[19:36:47] KungFuJesus: p23069 is the branch it seems to be pulling from when it builds
[19:36:56] wagnerrp: no, that is the revision
[19:36:59] sphery: wagnerrp: for reopening files? there's no sighup handler in mythbackend?
[19:37:07] KungFuJesus: hold on, let me open the ebuild
[19:37:14] wagnerrp: sphery: im saying there is a sighup handler in the backend
[19:37:19] wagnerrp: and if there is one in the frontend as well
[19:37:22] sphery: there's no code for it
[19:37:26] wagnerrp: i dont see anything more than needs to be done
[19:37:29] sphery: only in the frontend
[19:37:37] wagnerrp: oh? works fine for me... somehow...
[19:37:57] sphery: weird...
[19:38:13] sphery: http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/browser/trunk/myth . . . end/main.cpp search for HUP and log_rotate_handler()
[19:38:17] sphery: none in http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/browser/trunk/myth . . . end/main.cpp

[19:38:28] Captain_Murdoch: mythbackend has a sighup handler in main_helper.cpp unless Daniel just added that in the past week.
[19:38:35] sphery: ahhh
[19:38:53] Captain_Murdoch: main_helpers.cpp that is. :)
[19:38:57] Captain_Murdoch: more than one helper.
[19:38:59] KungFuJesus: wagnerrp: I can't find any info from which branch it's pulling it from
[19:39:08] sphery: yep, there it is
[19:39:21] KungFuJesus: in any case, is there a simple way to fix this?
[19:39:58] wagnerrp: KungFuJesus: move your videos elsewhere temporarily, and rescan to flush all existing content
[19:40:02] KungFuJesus: what I don't get is why it just started doing this today
[19:40:32] wagnerrp: the above issue was the only one i ever recall that could cause that situation
[19:40:33] KungFuJesus: well I have a database backup job that was run last night
[19:40:41] wagnerrp: and it was resolved before 0.22 was released
[19:40:46] KungFuJesus: I'm just not entirely sure how to restore from it with mythconverg_restore.pl
[19:40:54] sphery: wagnerrp: oh, and thanks to you, too... just meant that Captain_Murdoch provided the info on the location...
[19:41:02] sphery: (in my ticket update)
[19:41:18] ** sphery might be able to help with any mythconverg_restore.pl questions **
[19:41:22] Captain_Murdoch: not often I get a credit for "grep -i sighup *.cpp". :)
[19:42:09] sphery: Captain_Murdoch: heh, well, it's more than I did
[19:42:09] ** wagnerrp needs no thanks, only more tasty goldfish **
[19:42:23] sphery: so long and thanks for all the goldfish
[19:42:32] sphery: Captain_Murdoch: I didn't feel like booting my dev box to grep
[19:42:38] sphery: so I just looked at main.cpp
[19:43:16] KungFuJesus: how would I restore specifically the mythvideo data from a mythconverg backup?
[19:43:25] sphery: ah, that's not supported
[19:43:34] KungFuJesus: :(
[19:43:38] sphery: your best bet is to clear it out and re-metadata them
[19:43:43] wagnerrp: with considerable sql skill, and knowledge of the mythvideo schema
[19:43:53] KungFuJesus: uhg, that takes an eternity to do
[19:43:58] sphery: jamu?
[19:44:03] wagnerrp: 'w'?
[19:44:11] KungFuJesus: w on 500 videos
[19:44:16] wagnerrp: yep
[19:44:18] wagnerrp: its threaded
[19:44:19] sphery: jamu once?
[19:44:26] wagnerrp: press, rinse, repeat
[19:44:37] KungFuJesus: not to mention if the filename doesn't match the movie very well, jamu can't do it
[19:44:40] wagnerrp: should take less than 10 minutes
[19:44:50] wagnerrp: fix your filenames?
[19:45:10] KungFuJesus: I don't want to do it hundreds of times
[19:45:21] KungFuJesus: it's still a very manual process either way
[19:45:24] sphery: well, name them properly when you rip them
[19:45:33] sphery: because we know, of course, /you/ ripped them yourself
[19:45:34] KungFuJesus: yeah...when I...rip them
[19:45:35] KungFuJesus: sure

[19:45:49] wagnerrp: dont be coy about illegal activities
[19:46:04] sphery: go out and buy them and rip them right
[19:46:40] KungFuJesus: how I get the movie makes no difference to the fact that this may be a bug
[19:46:48] KungFuJesus: what exactly caused it to happen?
[19:46:54] sphery: you're using an old MythTV
[19:46:59] sphery: and you misconfigured it
[19:47:11] sphery: and you should configure it properly /and/ update to current?
[19:47:25] sphery: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Mythvideo
[19:47:27] KungFuJesus: that involves haggling the maintainer of the ebuild :(
[19:47:29] wagnerrp: how you got the movie makes all the difference to whether youre going to get help in here
[19:47:44] wagnerrp: the ebuild does nothing but install mythvideo
[19:47:49] wagnerrp: it does exactly no configuring
[19:47:56] KungFuJesus: what have I configured wrong?
[19:48:01] wagnerrp: mythvideo
[19:48:04] sphery: If you choose not to use Storage Groups then simply don't define any of the above mentioned Storage Groups and set up your directories for videos and artwork on each individual frontend.
[19:48:13] sphery: and v.v.
[19:48:14] KungFuJesus: I have
[19:48:48] KungFuJesus: only two frontends actually have mythvideo installed period, and the only storage group in existance is the "default" one
[19:49:00] wagnerrp: you have two frontends....
[19:49:06] wagnerrp: did you have both of them in mythvideo
[19:49:10] wagnerrp: and both of them ran a scan?
[19:49:12] sphery: then you have the videos in different locations on the different hosts?
[19:49:26] KungFuJesus: the other hasn't really had a scan in a long time, but they have different frontend identifiers
[19:49:34] sphery: or, wait, does MV now have hostname in there, too?
[19:49:46] wagnerrp: sphery: only for storagegroup content
[19:49:51] sphery: hmm
[19:49:54] wagnerrp: local content does not use that
[19:50:20] wagnerrp: there are only three things that could have done this
[19:50:24] KungFuJesus: I can stop the backend on the other machine entirely for the sake of diagnostics
[19:50:33] wagnerrp: two instances of the file in logically different locations (and prior to 0.23)
[19:51:02] wagnerrp: scanning mythvideo with an old copy of the local table, so it added the content twice
[19:51:08] wagnerrp: or tinkering outside of mythtv
[19:51:45] wagnerrp: the first issue has been fixed
[19:51:50] KungFuJesus: well there wasn't any tinkering, the copy of the table is definitely current as far as I knew (all of the content was there before the new scan)
[19:51:59] wagnerrp: the second issue has been partially fixed for the common scenario (of one frontend)
[19:52:27] wagnerrp: and the uncommon scenario (multiple frontends performing a scan at the same time) should be taken care of automatically when the scan is moved into the backend
[19:52:46] KungFuJesus: I wish there was some sort of hash indentifier or filename parameter that I could turn on in the frontend to point to it
[19:52:46] wagnerrp: either way, there is no fix to be performed for this issue in the code
[19:53:22] wagnerrp: man... that hash thing is getting brought up a lot today
[19:53:25] KungFuJesus: new mythvideo doesn't even display the filenames anymore
[19:53:51] wagnerrp: old mythvideo didnt display the filenames either
[19:54:04] KungFuJesus: it did the mythvideo database manager
[19:54:13] KungFuJesus: or at least as many characters as it could of it, lol
[19:54:26] wagnerrp: so change to the video manager view
[19:54:43] KungFuJesus: I'll try
[19:56:34] KungFuJesus: so the dupes both point to the same path, just one seems to have populated video metadata, while the other is just empty
[19:57:11] Beirdo: stupid spammer
[19:57:26] Beirdo: enjoy yer k-line, tard
[19:57:42] wagnerrp: bit slow on the response there
[19:57:47] Goga777 (Goga777!~Goga777@shpd-92-101-134-218.vologda.ru) has quit (Remote host closed the connection)
[19:57:47] wagnerrp: that was like 4 hours ago
[19:58:02] Beirdo: yeah well, I just got home
[19:58:05] KungFuJesus: using some sql magic I could probably drop the dupes by looking for entries that have the filename twice where the video number is 00000
[19:58:08] Beirdo: and tard highlighted me :)
[19:58:36] wagnerrp: yeah, he did everyone
[19:58:49] Beirdo: yup
[19:58:57] KungFuJesus: anybody know any easy query to do this?
[19:59:54] KungFuJesus: also, it turns out that I had to flush connections, the sql server was clobbered by a backend probably
[19:59:57] KungFuJesus: could that have caused the issue?
[20:11:15] KungFuJesus: SELECT filename, COUNT(*) FROM `mythconverg`.`videometadata` GROUP by `filename` HAVING COUNT(*) > 1;
[20:11:20] KungFuJesus: so that returned about 100 rows
[20:11:23] KungFuJesus: 1600*
[20:13:14] Beirdo: sphery: nice one on #8327 :)
[20:13:37] Beirdo: not sure how we'd be fitting the copyright onto an LCD anyways
[20:13:44] sphery: heh, yeah
[20:16:09] KungFuJesus: gah, I'm not this clever with SQL
[20:16:59] KungFuJesus: how would I find duplicates for a given field, and then of those duplicates, delete the entries with an inetref of 0?
[20:17:35] sphery: KungFuJesus: direct DB editing isn't supported, either
[20:18:05] sphery: just clear all your entries (scan where the only dirs are empty/non-existent), then start over
[20:18:07] KungFuJesus: gah, I really don't want these duplicate entries
[20:18:10] wagnerrp: Beirdo: just have a scroller, or something that flips between multiple data points including one of the copywrite
[20:18:24] KungFuJesus: *sigh* it took like 4 years to build this thing up
[20:18:33] sphery: and, that's as much help as you'll get from me... I choose not to help people who have stolen videos.
[20:19:13] Beirdo: wagnerrp: I guess so.
[20:19:30] Beirdo: anyways, feature requests -> wiki
[20:19:53] KungFuJesus: well that's a bit prejudice :(
[20:20:19] wagnerrp: how do you figure?
[20:20:21] sphery: Not in my opinion.\
[20:20:45] sphery: If you're so important you can steal them instead of paying for them, I'm not going to make it any easier on you.
[20:21:11] sphery: If you fail to do the work to earn the money to buy the videos legally, you can at least jump through hoops trying to make the stolen videos work for yourself.
[20:21:34] sphery: nothing's free in life :)
[20:21:50] KungFuJesus: it's not like this is a problem unique to scene ripped video, anybody could have named their files in a stupid or conventional way or even proper way and still have this problem
[20:22:08] KungFuJesus: the solutions just aren't as straight forward when the filenames have crap appended to them
[20:22:20] wagnerrp: why do you have crap appended to your filenames?
[20:22:39] KungFuJesus: regardless of why, it's a question of how
[20:23:03] KungFuJesus: what is going on that suddenly of the blue this problem arose
[20:23:55] sphery: KungFuJesus: basically, it comes down to the fact that you're using an unsupported file naming convention
[20:23:56] wagnerrp: we gave you several things that could have caused this
[20:24:14] sphery: KungFuJesus: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MythVideo_File_Parsing
[20:24:19] KungFuJesus: sphery: that's not true at all, you can change the names in the database, which I had done thus far
[20:24:22] wagnerrp: for supported formats... sphery beat me to the link
[20:24:28] sphery: and we know /why/ you're using that convention, so we don't care to help you
[20:24:30] wagnerrp: curse you and your ability to copy-paste
[20:24:36] KungFuJesus: it's just not supported to easily have it automated with jamu
[20:24:41] sphery: heh... I /finally/ got one faster than you
[20:24:50] sphery: no, it's unsupported
[20:24:56] sphery: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MythVideo_File_Parsing
[20:25:10] sphery: I.e. MythTV has no code to help file thieves
[20:25:36] sphery: if you want easy file handling, use a supported file naming scheme
[20:25:38] KungFuJesus: nobody is asking for that
[20:25:47] wagnerrp: you are right now
[20:26:23] KungFuJesus: I'm not asking for that at all, I understand that with garbage file names there comes the price of modifying the entries by hand so that mythvideo can lookup metadata

[21:22:06] KungFuJesus: yeah, that can get icky maintaining though
[21:23:28] bjd: Yo
[21:23:51] bjd: in theory, I could setup up rsync to run mythcommflag after I've rsync'ed a file right?
[21:25:09] bjd: ah, nice – post-xfer exec
[21:25:40] KungFuJesus: for the sake of simplicity I'll probably just practice a few SQL queries to eliminate the duplicates and see if it "finds" them again
[21:26:13] KungFuJesus: b/c technically all it does to see if the db entry is missing is check the path for the filename to see if it exists. Which is why the duplicate videos aren't disappearing
[21:27:46] KungFuJesus: intid is auto incrementing, right?
[21:27:59] tgm4883: bjd, why would you need to do that? wouldn't the file need to be in the DB for mythcommflag to do anything with it? And if it was already in the DB, why are you A) rsyncing it and B) running mythcommflag on it
[21:28:12] tgm4883: (actually B would make sense if you didn't commflag it earlier)
[21:28:30] KungFuJesus: yeah, looks like it auto increments. So I'll just pick the intid which is lower to keep

[22:50:37] KungFuJesus: one thing I've noticed, and I may be wrong here, mythweb when "Deleting" marks things to just auto-expire instead of actually deleting them. Whereas the actual interface deletes files
[22:51:06] edomeda: can anyone help me out with said isos? I'm trying to get mythvideo to work, I put a bunch in /var/lib/mythtv/videos, scanned for changes, but only get a bunch of "?" in my gallery view. They also don't play even though I have the FE configured for my mount point (NFS)
[22:51:08] KungFuJesus: is that correct?
[22:51:16] wagnerrp: KungFuJesus: not at all
[22:51:28] wagnerrp: both just make a call to the backend to delete them
[22:51:33] KungFuJesus: hmm, weird. B/c the status page sits there with "space free after auto expire"
[22:51:54] KungFuJesus: and that's where all the gigabytes seem to queue up when I massively delete my recordings
[22:51:59] wagnerrp: there is an option to tell the backend to move 'deleted' recordings to the Deleted group
[22:52:13] KungFuJesus: well, you know my stance on storage groups, lol
[22:52:13] wagnerrp: which are then at the top of the list for auto-expire
[22:52:25] wagnerrp: has nothing to do with storage groups
[22:52:39] KungFuJesus: oh, there's just a storage group to define where that goes
[22:52:40] KungFuJesus: I see
[22:52:54] wagnerrp: no, its a recording group
[22:53:02] wagnerrp: completely independent of storage groups

[22:57:25] KungFuJesus: hmm, your issue may be separate than mine, there's suspision mine was from a previously existing bug that was patched a while ago
[22:57:31] edomeda: but I'm trying to play isos, so I'm guessing I need to disable my BE storage groups since it doesn't have working iso support...
[22:58:09] wagnerrp: edomeda: if you have two sets of videos, its likely from defining both storage groups and local content for the same path

[22:59:33] KungFuJesus: that's what I meant. Local to the backend, remote to the remote hosts
[22:59:38] wagnerrp: correct
[22:59:38] iamlindoro: wagnerrp, Though Mythvideo scanning will just ignore the local dir if they're the same path
[22:59:43] edomeda: I'd love to use them, rather not have to NFS mount on every FE, but can't do isos on them yet
[22:59:51] wagnerrp: well in that case... i dont know what your problem would be
[23:00:23] iamlindoro: having used mythweb scanning, having two mountpoints with the same content but different paths, etc.

[23:00:51] KungFuJesus: I don't mind the NFS mounting to be honest. I think if the pathnames are the same you can even recycle the metadata
[23:01:19] edomeda: well my metadata is all broken/missing atm, they all show "?" with unknown info on every single iso
[23:01:31] edomeda: I tried changing the grabber, no help

[23:03:55] lucidblue: KungFuJesus: Thanks... I've changed my setup to work as 2 seperate screens and share the keyboard and mouse... the only thing I'm doing is moving the mouse from one screen to the other and it auto senses that, maybe it immediatley loses focus and so shrinks?
[23:04:10] edomeda: just wish NFS wasn't so unforgiving. I'm using intr and soft, but still causes many problems if the wifi link goes down and has to reconnect
[23:04:12] KungFuJesus: if you have sloppy focus it definitely will
[23:04:38] KungFuJesus: edomeda: yeah, I use wired links for myth stuff, packet loss is not acceptable when streaming content
[23:05:03] wagnerrp: edomeda: storage groups wont solve that problem
[23:05:13] KungFuJesus: lucidblue: if you don't click in the other window and don't have sloppy focus, it should be ok
[23:05:25] lucidblue: I don't but I think just the process of traversing screens must at least 'remove' focus from the app, even though no other thing is selected...
[23:05:27] KungFuJesus: assuming you want to read something while watching a video, but you can't change the focus of the window
[23:05:28] wagnerrp: mythtv simply isnt designed for unreliable networks
[23:05:34] edomeda: I've actually been amazed, I did lots of 1080p streaming last night over 802.11n on my eeebox atom330/ion, and it was perfect
[23:05:40] wagnerrp: and wireless will be unreliable
[23:05:43] lucidblue: KungFuJesus: thanks... hmmm...
[23:05:46] wagnerrp: its not so much a problem of bandwidth
[23:05:54] wagnerrp: as the fact that wireless will occasionally drop
[23:06:03] wagnerrp: which means playback will stall until the network recovers
[23:06:19] KungFuJesus: yeah, really most OTA MPEG-2 content is like 24mbps max
[23:06:21] lucidblue: KungFuJesus: it's odd that they have a dll for windows that can allow it though, you copy it over the original
[23:06:56] KungFuJesus: lucidblue: somebody may have hacked a binary for some win32 window handling to do that
[23:07:38] edomeda: oh, btw, is there a way to change the theme for mythtv-setup, mediabuntu has a horrible brown with lighter brown text I can't read. >:(

[23:08:43] lucidblue: I'm going to run myth-frontend on that screen (HDMI out to tv), but I'm running something with mplayer full screen and that's not an issue, so I don't think anything else would be a problem
[23:08:47] KungFuJesus: you can probably use mythtv on a different virtual desktop and that would work just fine
[23:08:58] KungFuJesus: but flash isn't going to play nice for something like that
[23:09:38] lucidblue: I have my monitor on :0.0 and my other screen on :0.1 you can't drag the windows and have to start apps directly to that display
[23:09:45] gbee: anyone using analogue with an HVR-1300 with 0.22-fixes, 0.23 RCs or trunk?
[23:10:12] edomeda: KungFuJesus, so the metadata grabber doesn't work atm for iso?
[23:10:23] KungFuJesus: edomeda: I'm not sure, I never use it
[23:10:23] wagnerrp: it works just fine for ISOs
[23:10:34] iamlindoro: OTA MPEG-2 isn't remotely nar 24 Mbit
[23:10:37] iamlindoro: near
[23:10:42] KungFuJesus: I can't imagine why it wouldn't. I've done must of my lookups by hand just fine
[23:10:55] wagnerrp: iamlindoro: ATSC isnt anywhere 24mbps, DVB-T can be though
[23:10:58] edomeda: wagnerrp, maybe doing something wrong, using the nfs mount, removed the storage groups, but everything is all "?"
[23:11:19] wagnerrp: edomeda: have you told it to search for metadata for that movie?
[23:11:40] KungFuJesus: wagnerrp: I use ATSC and my maximum bitrate is somewhere around 18mbit/sec

[23:11:46] edomeda: wagnerrp, in the settings, I checked that option that said grab it, will take longer to load/etc.
[23:12:18] wagnerrp: KungFuJesus: the absolute maximum is 19.4mbps
[23:12:28] edomeda: wagnerrp, says "enable metadata in file brows..."
[23:12:29] wagnerrp: edomeda: what option is that?
[23:12:41] edomeda: not sure how to read the rest of that option
[23:13:09] edomeda: wagnerrp, I tried changing the "movie grabber" too, no change
[23:13:18] iamlindoro: wagnerrp, the metadata load "kill switch"
[23:13:21] KungFuJesus: apparently my broadcasters want to use all of their frequency band? lol, I dunno
[23:13:34] iamlindoro: edomeda, You need to actually pull in the metadata, it is not done for you
[23:13:36] wagnerrp: edomeda: have you selected a movie, and hit 'w'?
[23:13:40] iamlindoro: edomeda, highlight a video, press W

[23:14:05] edomeda: oh, so I have to manually do it each time?
[23:14:06] KungFuJesus: edomeda: yeah, it's not done for you unless you schedule jamu to do it w/a cronjob. Although I've never really depended on jamu
[23:14:15] wagnerrp: yes
[23:14:17] KungFuJesus: it craps out on certain japanese filenames for me
[23:14:41] wagnerrp: it will handle unicode just fine, so longer at that movie exists on themoviedb.org
[23:15:29] edomeda: ok, so I got a list, picked the match, and it still shows "?" and unknowns.
[23:15:46] KungFuJesus: wagnerrp: my cron begs to differ: http://pastebin.com/3JyyceXX
[23:15:55] KungFuJesus: hard to tell exactly what video it's doing it on
[23:16:17] KungFuJesus: I've seen it take care of the occasional podcast though. It startled me at first. It also seems to update the movie posters every now and then

[23:21:00] edomeda: wagnerrp, must be doing something wrong, I still get no data even after selecting the movie in the list. I have 0.23 set for storage groups for metadata, do I need to change that?
[23:21:39] wagnerrp: you cant tell mythvideo to use storage groups for metadata
[23:21:55] wagnerrp: content on storage groups put images in the respective storage groups
[23:22:04] wagnerrp: local content puts images in the local folders
[23:22:23] edomeda: so I need another nfs share (rw) for my FE to be able to load metadata then?
[23:22:27] wagnerrp: and even if you had no image directories defined, it would still grab the text data

[23:25:23] klk (klk!~klk@76.211.128.200) has joined #mythtv-users
[23:25:24] edomeda: I tried that, I had fifthelement.iso for one, thought it couldn't find it so I renamed it The_Fifth_Element.iso, but the listing still shows "FifthElement" even after scan for changes, and no metadata
[23:25:46] wagnerrp: because it found a matching hash from the previous name
[23:25:58] wagnerrp: you have to completely remove it from any folder mythvideo will scan to flush it out
[23:26:39] wagnerrp: the latter name would work
[23:26:51] wagnerrp: and would show up in mythvideo as 'The Fifth Element'

[23:28:03] iamlindoro: or more simply, just pull up the edit metadata screen and change the title to "The Fifth Element"
[23:28:07] iamlindoro: then run a scan
[23:28:14] iamlindoro: (metadata scan)
[23:28:34] wagnerrp: that would work too, but may be cumbersome if you have multiple files that you need to fix
[23:29:53] edomeda: 2010-04–11 11:29:31.632 "/usr/share/mythtv/mythvideo/scripts/Movie/tmdb.py" failed: Process error 1 (then crashed my FE)

[23:30:54] iamlindoro: shouldn't crash your frontend, but sounds like you don't have the python bindings and their prerequisites installed
[23:31:07] wagnerrp: run that command from the terminal, and see what happens
[23:31:11] edomeda: it worked on other iso files...
[23:31:29] wagnerrp: well it still shouldnt be able to do anything to cause a crash
[23:31:32] wagnerrp: you have a dumpfile?
[23:31:35] iamlindoro: /usr/share/mythtv/mythvideo/scripts/Movie/tmdb.py -M "The Fifth Element"
[23:31:37] edomeda: it seems to hang when I run the command, takes like 3 mins and then returns code 0
[23:31:41] iamlindoro: run that from a command line
[23:32:01] iamlindoro: What distro? Did you install the python bindings?
[23:32:20] edomeda: 18:The Fifth Element (1997)
[23:32:34] edomeda: ubuntu (using autobuild and myth 0.23)
[23:34:06] edomeda: odd, must be a bug. First two times I ran it it would "hang" and appear to timeout the script after about 60–120 secs, then crash my FE
[23:34:17] edomeda: but after it got a good lookup, it works now.
[23:34:30] edomeda: my internet here isn't the best, but shouldn't crash the FE
[23:37:03] edomeda: ah, think I know why. my fanart images directory is missing, so it's crashing on the file copy

[23:42:54] lucidblue: KungFuJesus: yay... so, if you can manage to use one of the packages available for the "Hulu Desktop" you can run full screen without focus
[23:43:19] lucidblue: not sure how one would integrate that with myth, but I really can't image in would be too difficult

[23:58:24] lucidblue: so... I'm trying to setup a mythfrontend for my TV which will point to a backend on a different machine... I do have a backend running locally, but it doesn't do anything really, should I setup the remote one as the 'master backend'?
[23:59:03] bjd: should only have one backend
[23:59:09] [R]: why do you have ti running if it doesnt do anything and your not gonna use it
[23:59:16] bjd: i'd personally remove the 'local' backend
[23:59:36] wagnerrp: you should only be running backends on computers with record capacity (have tuner cards)
[23:59:58] wagnerrp: and you dont point mythtv to any backend in particular
