[00:04:05] jya: skd5aner: I'm not sure what "officially" means really ; everything in myth has always been a best case effort. Pulse works much better than it used it ; av-sync is *much* better than it used to be ; there is still a delay , but at least it's constant... Would need to implement the ability to save the time delay per channel and I think it would be fine for most...
[00:04:34] jya: there are still issues in pulse itself ; like the issue people have reported that you pause or seek, then you get static
[00:05:19] jya: the bug seems to be in the default resampler code.. Changing the default sampling rate from 44.1kHz to 48kHz seem to works for everyone
[00:08:14] tweek__: according to who you ask, pulse is already supported
[00:08:16] NightMonkey (NightMonkey!~NightMonk@pdpc/supporter/professional/nightmonkey) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:08:39] tweek__: rpmfusion's package for mythtv has a pulseaudio output option, and it works great ... for analog video anyway
[00:08:42] wagnerrp: tweek__: and who would claim that?
[00:09:02] wagnerrp: the existing 'support' in trunk is merely the ability to disable it and hit ALSA directly
[00:09:19] wagnerrp: anything more than that is something you shouldnt have been doing
[00:09:31] tweek__: http://mythtv.org/wiki/Installing_MythTV_on_Fedora#Sound_setup
[00:09:50] Jordan_U (Jordan_U!~jordan@adsl-99-169-81-166.dsl.pltn13.sbcglobal.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:10:05] tweek__: and it doesn't seem to be disabling pulseaudio, pulseaudio has direct control of the sound coming from mythtv
[00:10:09] wagnerrp: uh huh... and mythtv 'works with pulseaudio' by disabling it
[00:10:20] wagnerrp: for the duration that mythfrontend is active
[00:10:37] green_d44 (green_d44!~Dylan@pool-74-109-209-26.pitbpa.fios.verizon.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:10:56] tweek__: if pulseaudio is disabled that's news to the rest of the audio applications running on fedora that use it while mythfrontend is up
[00:11:00] tweek__: maybe they have some sort of patch
[00:11:14] green_d44: Hi, I was told to ask here if I have video capture questions — I need to find a video/audio capture card similar to this one – http://www.provantage.com/ads-technologies-us . . . 7ADST055.htm – that will work out of the box on Ubuntu. It needs to be under $75. I just want to record video/audio from my Xbox 360, I don't need anything too fancy. Any suggestions?
[00:12:07] tweek__: analog capture cards are going to be out of date rather quickly, because everything's broadcast in digital aside from some cable TV stations these days
[00:12:24] tweek__: that thing doesn't even really have a tuner
[00:12:37] wagnerrp: tweek__: that doesnt mean mythtv is capable of using digital capture at all times
[00:13:09] wagnerrp: green_d44: you want a PVR-150 or 500
[00:13:28] wagnerrp: you can pick them up for ~$20 on ebay (double for the 500)
[00:13:29] green_d44: can that record video and audio through RCA/HDMI?
[00:13:34] XChatMav (XChatMav!~MaverickT@111.86.233.220.static.exetel.com.au) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:13:43] wagnerrp: composite (RCA) and svideo, yes
[00:13:53] wagnerrp: nothing can record anything worthwhile off HDMI
[00:14:01] tweek__: you will not generally find something that can capture HDMI and output it to whatever, the whole point of HDMI is to prevent that stuff
[00:14:15] wagnerrp: no, the whole point of HDCP is to prevent that stuff
[00:14:25] wagnerrp: there are a handful of devices that will capture HDMI
[00:14:29] wagnerrp: but none of them will do HDCP
[00:14:49] green_d44: I was looking at hauppage cards earlier, but I heard that many of them can't record audio. I need to have audio recording, otherwise having a capture card is somewhat pointless
[00:15:12] tweek__: pvr-150 / 250 / 350 will have audio support
[00:15:17] green_d44: If I'm going to have to worry about HDCP, composite is fine.
[00:15:18] tweek__: even in freebsd I believe
[00:15:35] wagnerrp: hauppauge makes a couple capture cards for closed circuit security systems that may not support audio
[00:15:44] wagnerrp: but the 150 and 500 will support audio just fine
[00:15:50] wagnerrp: you dont want a 250/350
[00:16:02] dfletcher_ (dfletcher_!~fletch@c-24-7-96-44.hsd1.ca.comcast.net) has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
[00:16:04] green_d44: What software do I need to use to capture the video/audio once I get the card?
[00:16:16] green_d44: (In Linux, that is)
[00:16:27] tweek__: support for the pvr150 and so on is already in the linux kernel
[00:16:36] wagnerrp: 'cat'
[00:16:58] wagnerrp: the PVR cards will show up as '/dev/video0'
[00:17:11] tweek__: pick any number of TV viewers (tvtime, xawtv, mythtv, etc.) once you have /dev/video* working
[00:17:21] wagnerrp: 'cat /dev/video0 > some_file.mpg' will output an mpeg stream ready to use
[00:17:38] wagnerrp: v4l2_ctl will let you adjust the bitrate and quality of the output

[00:17:48] wagnerrp: as well as select the capture input you wan tto use
[00:17:57] green_d44: What are the differences between the PVR models? Will the 150 do everything I need, or are the 250/350 preferrable?
[00:18:08] poodyp (poodyp!~poodyp@ip68-5-35-26.oc.oc.cox.net) has quit (Read error: Operation timed out)
[00:18:14] tweek__: he said 150, probably a good reason for that
[00:18:41] wagnerrp: the 500 basically has two 150s on a single board
[00:18:52] wagnerrp: the 250 and 350 are much older, dont worry about those

[00:35:35] tweek__: where in the MythTV database can I find the episode / season numbers for recordings?
[00:35:58] iamlindoro: You cannot, since no such information is available/stored
[00:36:11] tweek__: or failing that, something I can join against some other database to get it, that isn't merely series name / episode title
[00:36:35] tweek__: EP002960010116 <--- these IDs -have- to be significant somehow
[00:36:42] wagnerrp: nope
[00:36:54] wagnerrp: just what schedules direct gives us

[00:47:36] wagnerrp: recordings have no episode number
[00:47:55] wagnerrp: there is a value given by the listings provider that may include the season and episode number
[00:48:03] wagnerrp: but it should be considered completely arbitrary
[00:48:16] wagnerrp: not good for anything other than duplicate matching

[04:35:08] jya: wagnerrp: your statement about pulse support in myth is now completely outdated ; pulseaudio output code was completely rewritten, and is mostly working fine with pulse
[04:36:00] wagnerrp: in trunk, yes... the user was still on 0.23
[04:36:15] Kazan: yup. i'm running stable
[04:36:26] Kazan: WAF drops preciptously when you run trunk :D
[04:36:44] wagnerrp: it really hasnt been too bad the past two cycles
[04:36:55] jya: Kazan: mythtv suspends pulse, only if you are using an audio device different to Pulse:... or ALSA:pulse
[04:37:22] Kazan: well i've removed pulse from my system entirely (yum remove'd)
[04:37:28] Kazan: and magically all my troubles disapeared!
[04:37:51] jya: wagnerrp: your comment above was about trunk... you wrote "the existing 'support' in trunk is merely the ability to disable it and hit ALSA directly"
[04:38:07] jya: which is completely incorrect now... and even in 0.23 is so
[04:38:21] gbutters is now known as gbutters_away
[04:38:21] gbutters_away is now known as gbutters
[04:38:25] gbutters is now known as gbutters_away
[04:38:25] gbutters_away is now known as gbutters
[04:38:26] jya: 0.23 has a pulse output support, pretty crap one, but still there, and pulse server isn't suspended then
[04:38:44] wagnerrp: ah, if i did say trunk, i meant -fixes
[04:39:06] jya: would be accurate with 0.22-fixes :)
[04:39:41] jya: Kazan: Master adjusts "front"
[04:39:51] jya: and only front on most system unfortunately...
[04:39:55] wagnerrp: 0.23 will use trunk? i thought you had to specify that 'EXPERIMENTALLY_ALLOW_PULSE' or something environmental variable to prevent it from being halted
[04:40:24] jya: wagnerrp: in 0.23 EXPERIMENTALLY_ALLOW_PULSE, prevents suspending the pulse server
[04:40:41] jya: so myth would be using pulse ALSA support
[04:40:54] jya: it looks like alsa, it smells like alsa, but really, it's pulse :)
[04:41:17] jya: but there is a PULSE:default available in the output settings
[04:41:23] jya: which uses the native pulse output
[04:41:43] jya: but it's pretty bad, incorrect use of the APIs which cause massive A/V sync issues
[04:42:02] Kazan: when i removed pulse "Master" in myth started altering "Master" in alsamixer
[04:42:21] wagnerrp: i thought it was less of 'support' and more of 'well let you run mythtv with horrible a/v sync if you really want'
[04:42:25] jya: Kazan: what you wrote doesn't make sense
[04:42:43] jya: wagnerrp: yes, that's if you use ALSA:blah
[04:42:54] jya: if the pulse server is running
[04:43:07] jya: then while myth thinks it's using the alsa APIs
[04:43:22] jya: in fact it's using the pulse ALSA compatibility layer
[04:43:32] jya: pretty aweful
[04:43:34] Kazan: jya: when pulseaudio was installed on my system, and i had mythfrontend set to use the "Master" mixer channel for volume control, it would adjust "Front" not "Master" (according to alsamixer)
[04:43:50] Kazan: when i "yum remove"'d pulse it started using "Master" as it was told
[04:44:19] jya: Kazan: because when you have pulse running, you are using their ALSA compatibility layer, and not alsa
[04:44:33] Kazan: yeah
[04:44:42] Kazan: i also saw a small decrease in CPU utilization, that was expected
[04:44:44] jya: so in 0.23, you can.
[04:45:14] jya: use ALSA, OSS natively, and this will suspend pulse if it's running
[04:45:36] Kazan: or you can just yum remove pulseaudio :D
[04:45:37] jya: or use ALSA/oss compatibility layer, with pulse running if you set EXPERIMENTALLY_ALLOW_PULSE
[04:46:10] jya: or use pulse natively by using Pulse:default in the audio settings
[04:46:28] jya: in trunk, it currently is exactly the same as 0.23
[04:46:52] jya: except that the Pulse native code got rewritten, and is now working properly
[04:47:25] jya: but in all other cases, it behaves like 0.23 (e.g. suspends pulse or not)
[04:47:57] jya: but yeah, if your system is exclusively for mythtv, there's absolutely no incentive to use pulse
[04:48:35] jya: pulse only makes sense if you would be running other piece of software producing sound, and you want all to work at the same time

[06:15:18] k-man: oobe: of course i know that – the feature i am suggesting is providing a way to, select a video on your PC and easily get it to play on your TV via mythtv
[06:15:27] iamlindoro: already doable...
[06:15:34] k-man: iamlindoro: ok, i'm not familiar with that
[06:15:47] iamlindoro: "Play Recording on Frontend" in the recording detail screen in mythweb
[06:16:03] k-man: iamlindoro: oh that's very cool, didn't know that
[06:16:04] iamlindoro: which of course presumes you have enabled the network control port for all your frontends, and they are running
[06:16:19] oobe: yea also telnet interface now supports it iirc
[06:16:32] iamlindoro: has always supported it
[06:16:37] oobe: oh ok
[06:17:24] k-man: but as a more generic case, it would be cool if there was a way to "play" any video file – and also video from web sites like youtube directly from your notebook
[06:17:48] iamlindoro: and a pony, I presume
[06:17:56] k-man: a pony?
[06:18:03] iamlindoro: yes, I assume you'd also like a pony
[06:18:52] oobe: I want one those things that allows me to travel back and forth in time and teleporting

[06:20:31] k-man: look, i'm not critisising mythtv, i love mythv – i also think its valid to talk about ideas and what would be cool
[06:21:08] k-man: if you don't like my idea you can just say it doesnt work for you – but there is no need to rubbish it
[06:21:30] iamlindoro: k-man, We have an excess of idea men, and to be honest the listing of nice-to-haves without knowhow to make it happen, or willingness to learn is exasperating
[06:21:55] iamlindoro: k-man, Thus our general irritation at people who list off all the things they would love like a christmas list
[06:22:10] k-man: at what point did i say i was unwilling to learn? and fair enough its exasperating, but this is a general discussion channel, if you find it annoying, just ignore it
[06:22:12] iamlindoro: Now if you turn up with patches, your ideas become a lot more compelling
[06:22:26] iamlindoro: Actually, this is a user support channel
[06:22:46] k-man: so its not for general mythtv related discussion?

[06:24:01] k-man: iamlindoro: regarding patches, i totally understand and agree – but surely some discussion about a possible feature is required before even thinking about patching – as for example, i was unaware of the mythweb feature you pointed out to me
[06:24:19] iamlindoro: k-man, Which is why you got an answer to that one
[06:24:37] iamlindoro: k-man, but making up random features that have no technical feasibility whatsoever is another thing
[06:25:11] iamlindoro: such as "it should... play random videos! Or whatever I tell it to from youtube!" It sounds a lot like the "oooh, shiny!" school of design
[06:25:40] k-man: iamlindoro: well.... ok, not quite what I mean, but i take your point.

[06:27:15] iamlindoro: 99 out of 100 people who want to compel us to implement their features are "idea men." We get sick of it
[06:27:44] iamlindoro: So don't take it as an insult, take it as a challenge-- I'd love to have you implement a neat feature-- if you think I'm wrong and that it's valid, useful, and possible, then put your code where your mouth is ;)
[06:28:13] iamlindoro: and then the *next* time you have an idea, we start to take you seriously :)
[06:28:19] k-man: iamlindoro: i hear what you are saying and i understand it, but i just felt a little like rasing an idea that occured to me was not to be done here

[06:28:51] iamlindoro: er salty
[06:28:55] [R]: haha
[06:29:06] [R]: i'm so upset that my first myth patch was like 3 lines
[06:29:42] iamlindoro: k-man, Again, don't take it as an insult, take it as a challenge-- I am happy to be proven wrong and find that you intend to follow your idea to its conclusion and deliver on it
[06:29:59] k-man: im not insulted
[06:30:23] iamlindoro: but if I'm right, and all you want to do is try to convince someone that a new toggle-switch on myth MythBox is something they should implement, then better not to have that discussion at all

[11:16:10] RDV_Linux: jya: As in Mythbuntu there are three regular cron jobs (-MW) to download TV and Movie images for the Watch Recorded Screen; (-MV) to maintain the metadata in MythVideo for videos that have a reference number (-MJ) A weekly clean up of graphics that are not used anymore.
[11:16:45] jya: does it get all the info such as the location of the files etc from the myth database?
[11:19:34] RDV_Linux: jya: Yes for video's already in the DB through a scan but it also reads the local BE video path from the DB and would insert those videos if you use the interactive options (-MI) or (-MR) which finds and inserts the required reference number from TVDB or TMDB.
[11:20:18] jya: how do you get files in the database? do I manually have to start a scan in mythvideo, or is there an option doing so ?
[11:20:50] corrr (corrr!~corrr@cs181190197.pp.htv.fi) has joined #mythtv-users
[11:21:54] RDV_Linux: jya: The option (-MR) to load the video with a reference number the do a (-MV) run to download the images and metadata is the best method.
[11:22:26] jya: allright... So pretty much, I don't have to worry with the jamu.conf and can directly run the 3 various cron job ...
[11:23:12] corrr: does anyone have a terratec cinergy c or similar? I'm having driver issues in a new lucid install. not really a mythtv issue but I'm not sure where to turn
[11:24:04] RDV_Linux: jya: That is fair to say. The conf file mainly deals with the language option and bridging gaps between EPG data and the variance in TVDB. Example "V" vs "V (2009)"
[11:24:30] jya: ok.. just to show that I got it right :)

[11:27:08] jya: nah
[11:27:18] jya: manual for me is like it doesn't know between A and B
[11:27:21] jya: so I choose B :)
[11:28:34] RDV_Linux: jya: Ok so during the -MR option you can select the reference number from a list or input it instead.
[11:28:58] jya: ok... similar to the python script I wrote/modified many moons ago

[11:30:41] RDV_Linux: jya: I only get concerned when I hear the word manual as Jamu will happily override manually input metadata as it always reflects what id on the TVDB or TMDB source. If you want jamu to ignore a specific video then set the reference number to eight nine (99999999)
[11:31:05] croppa (croppa!~stuart@135.27.233.220.static.exetel.com.au) has joined #mythtv-users
[11:31:11] RDV_Linux: jya: or on the conf file set a subdirectory to be ignored.
[11:31:53] jya: as long as jamu reuse the name I've already entered in the metadata
[11:31:56] jya: it should be fine
[11:32:21] jya: I have many files for which the file name makes no sense, but the name in the meta data is correct
[11:32:43] jya: so if jamu reuse that names in the metadata it should be fine instead of trying to guess from the file name
[11:32:47] justinh: oo the website came back up for about 10 minutes. I really need to get some money out of the committee & switch hosts
[11:34:09] RDV_Linux: jya: Jamu uses the reference number as god, with the TVDB and TMDB. So if you want to manually enter anything then enter the refernece number (even IMDB). Changint the movie name or TV title will mean nothing to jamu,
[11:34:15] jya: RDV_Linux: if there's no metadata or if the title in the metadata match the name of the file, then jamu can then do a match from the file name
[11:35:10] jya: problem really is that I've maintained my metadata quite well all those years...
[11:36:21] RDV_Linux: jya: If you do not have a reference number jamu will use the file name. That is it. As it says in the wiki if you manually maintain your metadata Jamu is not for you as Jamu maintains your metadata according to what is on TVDB and TMDB.
[11:36:28] jya: so while I don't mind jamu searching for the data and replacing what's there... I know that if it's trying to guess the title from the file name, it's going to take me forever to redo it all
[11:36:52] jya: hum... ok
[11:37:09] jya: may have a dry run first and see how it goes ... hopefully this will be a one off thing

[11:38:25] xand: but I want a silly truncated list wasting my terminal space :(
[11:38:26] RDV_Linux: jya: Please back up first but a dry run or the suggested -s (simulation) option addition (-MRs) would be the best approach.
[11:40:56] RDV_Linux: jya: Jamu was really only meant to get metadata for large collection when 0.22 was released. After that I expected people to use MythVideo's (w) key to update newly added videos. I also expected Jamu to be obsolete by now.
[11:41:26] jya: oh, I manually do it from the interface
[11:41:38] jya: that's what I do most of the time now
[11:42:23] jya: but there are still time where I download my TV series automatically, and I like those to get automatically added
[11:42:53] RDV_Linux: jya: If that is the case maybe all you want from Jamu is the -MW option to get images for your recorded programs and -MJ to clean those images up when they are not needed anymore.
[11:44:20] RDV_Linux: jya: Good luck I hope you find something of use in jamu. Just be aware of its limitations.

[15:29:08] wagnerrp: same here, pretty sure it picked up on it with the old style
[15:29:09] iamlindoro: The name matching is done by measuring the transform distance from string a to any of the available options

[15:29:25] iamlindoro: so the transform distance from A to B in that case is very far

[16:31:07] iamlindoro: they'll just be less efficient

[17:15:26] Captain_Murdoch: keith4, you don't want /mythtv/group1, /mythtv/group2, /mythtv/group3 to be mount points _AND_ Storage Group directories though. you want to make a subdir below the mount and set that subdir up in the Storage Group. That way if the drive is ever unmounted, MythTV won't record to the mount point itself and fill up your root hard drive. so, mount on /mythtv/group1 and put make a subdir /mythtv/group1/recordings and put tha
[17:15:26] Captain_Murdoch: t subdir in the Storage Group.
[17:16:27] keith4: Captain_Murdoch: oh, no worries. the underlying directories are root:root 770
[17:16:37] keith4: but you make an excellent point
[17:17:21] Captain_Murdoch: so in your case you'd just have failed recordings :) since the recorder wouldn't be able to write to the dir. :) if the SG dir doesn't exist, then MythTV will use another dir, that's another reason for using subdirs on mounted filesystems.

[20:13:41] dustybin: Hostname: server – OS: Linux 2.6.33.4/x86_64 – CPU: 4 x Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 (2933.263 MHz) – Processes: 203 – Uptime: 52m – Load Average: 0.14 – Memory Usage: 137.91MB/3702.39MB (3.72%) – Disk Usage: 188.81GB/1077.54GB (17.52%)
[20:13:45] RockHound: Jay2k1: thx for the tipp towards mythwelcome ... works perfectly
[20:14:11] Jay2k1: i.e. for en.wikipedia.org it asks root server, from there it's being told to ask the server responsible for org., from there to wikipedia.org. and so on
[20:14:19] RockHound: I am missing the current time on that screen though
[20:14:57] wagnerrp: they make quadcore i3s?

[20:15:28] Jay2k1: ah well
[20:15:34] Jay2k1: i use mythcenter-wide
[20:15:42] RockHound: been there ... ;-)
[20:16:08] Jay2k1: so you increased your idle delay now? :)
[20:17:54] RockHound: nope ... just setup the right command via mythshutdown
[20:18:21] Jay2k1: no i mean, to prevent early shutdown after boot
[20:18:48] Jay2k1: when i switch on the machine, i have to wait until welcome is there and then start the frontend within 60 seconds, or the machine will power off itself again
[20:19:13] johnnyj: wagnerrp – wow that first attempt is still running
[20:19:38] RockHound: if I switch it on manually, mythwelcome starts mythfrontend immediately which prevents the shutdown
[20:19:44] wagnerrp: johnnyj: what did you expect? h264 is very intensive to encode
[20:19:46] justinh: Jay2k1: IMHO the big difference is that my ISP's DNS is terribly slow at times. caching really helps
[20:21:07] Jay2k1: for queries you use regularly, yes
[20:21:18] Jay2k1: for new ones, it doesn't make stuff faster if your isp's is slow
[20:22:45] Jay2k1: RockHound and if it powers itself on automatically to record a scheduled show, the frontend is not started?
[20:22:59] Jay2k1: i know you can configure welcome to do so, but it never worked reliably for me
[20:23:48] RockHound: Jay2k1: yes, that has worked for me in my tests today
[20:24:01] Jay2k1: sometimes it powered on at 3am to record and stayed on all night because it started the FE... when i turn it on the next time to watch a recording, FE is not started and it goes down again
[20:24:17] Jay2k1: well, i'm curious if it'll work for you
[20:24:22] RockHound: I will watch this

[20:27:10] johnnyj: wagnerrp – i was under the impression that the command i was using for handbrake would result in a smaller file when using mkv
[20:27:22] johnnyj: does the container make no difference?
[20:28:17] wagnerrp: last time i tried to transcode my ATSC recordings, it was 1080i60 mpeg2 @14mbps to 1080p24 h264 @6mbps
[20:28:39] wagnerrp: took me like 4hrs on a 2.2GHz C2D
[20:28:40] dustybin: do you think mythtv should implement a database-free way of transfering recordings. ie, imagine you had a hard drive of recordings, all you would need to do is plug it into a new fresh mythtv box, and it would read a file in the recordings directory then fill the database up automatically
[20:29:08] johnnyj: wagnerrp – good to know
[20:29:34] wagnerrp: johnnyj: that 2.2GHz C2 is slightly less powerful single threaded than your 2.5 AMD
[20:29:49] wagnerrp: you likely cannot decode that HDPVR recording in real time on that processor

[21:40:08] dustybin: do i need to turn on MMX via the BIOS ?

[21:44:13] dustybin: i just changed the arch to i686 instead of i486
[21:44:36] dustybin: seems to be ok now!
[21:44:50] J-e-f-f-A: Yeah, that could do it... Did you 'force' it to i486 before?
[21:45:08] dustybin: the slackbuild has ARCH=i486 in the script
[21:45:15] dustybin: *had
[21:45:28] dustybin: i changed it to i686, now its compiling without warnings / errors
[21:48:35] wagnerrp: dustybin: the i5 processors may very well not support MMX
[21:49:04] wagnerrp: the EM64T architecture does not have those units, and they are disabled in 64-bit mode
[21:49:19] wagnerrp: why are you compiling 32-bit anyway?

[22:06:15] wagnerrp: f--- that, the cops around here cant even manage to stay in their lane on a straight road
[22:06:22] clever: wagnerrp: another bug that i think is just my fault, inuseprograms keeps filling up with dead preview_generator's
[22:06:23] Beirdo: 'the officer is drunk and wouldn't know a speeder from a donut'
[22:06:46] J-e-f-f-A: They 'pounced' on me, since I had a camp trailer and out-of-state plates – the other 20 cars around me were going the same speed... ugh...
[22:06:50] clever: i think its because i somehow compiled the video codecs with sse so they now crash on the master backend and leave the table unclean
[22:07:23] wagnerrp: J-e-f-f-A: yeah, you dont speed through central ohio without a detector
[22:07:24] Kazan: anyone know why my TV is able to tune some analog channels, but my PVR-500 isn't able to tune those same channels....

[22:07:48] Beirdo: stop breaking the law... <censored>
[22:07:56] Kazan: wagnerrp: they're analog
[22:08:00] Kazan: wagnerrp: the TV reported them as analog
[22:08:14] J-e-f-f-A: Beirdo: heheheh... Oh well... It was a $150 ticket IIRC... that hurt...
[22:08:33] Beirdo: yeah, it can hurt... don't get caught next time :)
[22:08:35] wagnerrp: Kazan: the channels are not listed by schedules direct, so mythtv doesnt know they exist to tune
[22:08:45] Kazan: they're listed in SD
[22:08:56] Kazan: it is attempting to tune them, but is gettin static
[22:08:58] clever: wagnerrp: it also doesnt put anything into inuseprograms, so myth itself may try to expire the file and only delete one of the 2 copies (mid-move)
[22:09:17] J-e-f-f-A: Anyways, it's after 6pm.. time to head home!  ;-) ttyl.
[22:09:18] wagnerrp: i need to put stuff for that table into the bindings...
[22:09:52] clever: during the move, its probly not safe to even read the file
[22:10:02] clever: since it might read from the origin which will be deleted soon
[22:10:38] clever: ive had mythtranscode do the same and the frontend just up and stoped playback

[23:47:43] GuyCanada: i can find out what im capturing later im just looking for cards that will work
[23:48:19] Beirdo: no, you need to know what kind of signal you are capturing to know what cards will be able to capture it
[23:48:44] Beirdo: "regular cable TV" doesn't mean much... analog? digital?
[23:50:55] GuyCanada: ahh i see, i figured the cable would only carry one or the other didnt know the same type of input could carry analogue or digital, lets assume its digital cable
