[00:00:14] kormoc: I swore there was a pin to access settings
[00:00:22] kormoc: rhollan, nope
[00:00:37] rhollan: I want my kids to be able to play music an videos on their wireless nettop, but not do anything destructive.
[00:00:51] wagnerrp: mythtv was never really designed to protect itself from you or members of your household
[00:00:59] rhollan: yes, I understand that.
[00:01:28] rhollan: Right now, I am restricting remote access with stunnel and both client and server certs to "authorized" devices to do that.
[00:01:54] Beirdo: BDFH
[00:02:18] rhollan: That's why I was thinking of uPNP. It is essentially read-only, no?
[00:02:27] kormoc: yeah
[00:02:28] Beirdo: it is, correct
[00:03:17] wagnerrp: as a protocol, no, but for mythtv's purposes, yes
[00:03:34] Beirdo: right. Sorry, shoulda been more specific
[00:03:42] iamlindoro: Beirdo, Not personally, no, I don't think a random SQL query belonged there, my interaction with the ticket was triage only
[00:03:54] rhollan: good enough, IF I could access ALL media (music, ripped videos and DVDs, photos, AND recordings) with it
[00:03:55] Beirdo: OK
[00:04:20] wagnerrp: music, videos, and recordings, yes
[00:04:21] Beirdo: iamlindoro: just doing some random quick sweep-throughs, etc
[00:04:28] wagnerrp: ISOs? that depends on the application
[00:04:31] wagnerrp: photos? nope
[00:04:43] Beirdo: wagnerrp: oh no.
[00:04:46] iamlindoro: yeah, I understand-- I just try to deal with all tickets for basic accuracy/functional patches as they come in
[00:04:47] Beirdo: don't do that to me :)
[00:04:52] rhollan: O.K. I understand the iso bit, but no photos?
[00:04:59] rhollan: Myth's limitation or upnp's?
[00:05:02] wagnerrp: myth's
[00:05:13] rhollan: er, maybe I could fix that?
[00:05:13] Beirdo: you telling me that there's MORE crap to work on for mythgallery? :)
[00:05:17] rhollan: without too much pain?
[00:05:40] Beirdo: heh. I'm about to get to mythgallery with a rather large pitchfork to dung it out
[00:05:52] wagnerrp: you could probably duplicate the code it uses for mythmusic
[00:05:57] wagnerrp: and just point it at a different settings value
[00:06:13] Beirdo: I'd rather you pattern it on mythvideo...
[00:06:18] rhollan: interesting. Will think about that.
[00:06:28] Beirdo: I intend to put storage groups in for mythgallery
[00:06:51] wagnerrp: Beirdo: mythvideo over upnp does not use storage groups either
[00:06:59] Beirdo: oh good God
[00:07:00] wagnerrp: it doesnt even use the database
[00:07:10] Beirdo: hehe
[00:07:14] wagnerrp: it just performs its own file scan over the folder listed in VideoStartupDir
[00:07:21] Beirdo: sounds like we need a nice.... rewrite :)
[00:07:23] wagnerrp: pretty sure the music support does nearly the same thing
[00:07:29] rhollan: O.K. Thanks for the info.
[00:07:37] rhollan: time to drive home.

[00:12:35] wagnerrp: just change the file access routines around
[00:12:41] Beirdo: yeah
[00:12:55] Beirdo: I know, but it's likely not going to be as easy as it first sounds
[00:13:19] Beirdo: I do have mythvideo as a decent example though

[02:20:48] Beirdo: wagnerrp: settings-wise...
[02:21:08] Beirdo: mythgallery stuff should be changed to be mythgallery.blah?
[02:21:33] wagnerrp: would be nice to keep that kind of stuff separate
[02:21:49] Beirdo: well, it's all in the settings table
[02:22:04] Beirdo: and mythvideo uses settings starting with mythvideo. by the looks of it
[02:22:46] Beirdo: so yeah, having a prefix for the settings name might just be the cleanest way to keep them unique
[02:22:47] wagnerrp: gallery currently uses 'gallery' and 'Gallery' for a number of its setting
[02:22:48] wagnerrp: s
[02:22:56] Beirdo: yeah
[02:23:17] Beirdo: I'm thinking of changing to gallery. or mythgallery.
[02:23:21] wagnerrp: MTD___, Music___, MythArchive___
[02:23:23] Beirdo: but I dunno
[02:24:21] Beirdo: heh
[02:24:24] sphery: Beirdo: mythvideo has been starting the move to prefixed settings
[02:24:37] sphery: so changing mythgallery to do likewise would be good
[02:24:42] Beirdo: sphery: that would be the generally accepted "right way"?
[02:24:44] Beirdo: K
[02:25:03] sphery: it's definitely much easier for people to figure out where the setting applied
[02:25:07] Beirdo: yeah
[02:25:12] sphery: and will help to prevent any namespace collisions
[02:25:14] Beirdo: taht's what I was thinking
[02:25:23] wagnerrp: if thats going to become the norm, i could adapt the bindings to better handle that
[02:25:56] Beirdo: I think it makes a decent norm :)
[02:25:58] sphery: I don't know that anyone plans to change old settings names (values), but at least for new ones
[02:26:03] wagnerrp: have the 'settings' class subclass itself for values with dots in their name
[02:26:14] sphery: changing old ones wouldn't hurt, but that's a matter of how motivated one is...  :)
[02:26:29] Beirdo: well, I think in the gallery code, it's likely to change
[02:26:30] Beirdo: heh
[02:26:33] sphery: same thing with DB tables, too, ideally
[02:26:40] Beirdo: heh
[02:26:43] sphery: some prefix would be nice
[02:26:50] Beirdo: first things first
[02:26:56] sphery: heh, yeah
[02:27:07] sphery: just something to keep in mind if you add new tables :)
[02:27:13] Beirdo: for sure
[02:27:26] Beirdo: for now, working on doing the storage group
[02:27:36] Beirdo: thinking maybe making two?
[02:27:55] sphery: 2?
[02:28:05] Beirdo: GalleryPictures and GalleryThumbnails
[02:28:09] sphery: oh
[02:28:13] Beirdo: names to be debated
[02:28:26] sphery: where thumbs is optional (and it can use pics for thumbs if not specified)?
[02:28:27] Beirdo: might be good to have them in separate groups?
[02:28:28] wagnerrp: a separate folder for thumbnails?
[02:28:34] sphery: agreed
[02:28:35] wagnerrp: is that needed?
[02:28:50] wagnerrp: i mean do we really need to store thumbnails?
[02:28:50] sphery: lots of people want mythtv to never write to their picture folders
[02:28:51] Beirdo: yeah, thumbs defaulting to pics if not specified
[02:29:01] sphery: so they put thumbs elsewhere and write-protect gallery
[02:29:06] Beirdo: yup
[02:29:11] Beirdo: like on a DVD-ROM
[02:29:12] Beirdo: :)
[02:29:22] sphery: yeah, that too
[02:29:38] wagnerrp: i guess if you want to pull up a big wall of images, it would take a while to read and scale them all
[02:29:43] sphery: there was a change long ago to allow that with a ~/.mythtv/<something> folder for thumbs
[02:29:48] Beirdo: and also... lets us have a directory tree under pics, and the thumbs would mirror the dir structure
[02:29:52] wagnerrp: i was thinking you could just pump the image into opengl, and let it do the scaling for you
[02:30:01] wagnerrp: but it would take a lot of time just to read it off the disk
[02:30:19] Beirdo: hmm
[02:30:28] wagnerrp: but would that kind of stuff automatically happen through the theme cache?
[02:30:47] wagnerrp: the theme cache would effectively be your thumbnail storage
[02:30:54] Beirdo: good god no
[02:31:13] pizzledizzle (pizzledizzle!~pizdets@pool-96-250-215-244.nycmny.fios.verizon.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[02:31:13] Beirdo: I'm thinking of those of us with GIGS of pics
[02:31:38] Beirdo: do you really want a theme change to flush all the thumbnails?
[02:31:40] wagnerrp: can you even prevent the themecache from doing that?
[02:32:10] ** sphery can't remember which caches clear and which don't **
[02:32:35] wagnerrp: Beirdo: but that way it would leave scaling up to the theme, rather than up to the plugin
[02:32:47] poodyp (poodyp!~poodyp@m640e36d0.tmodns.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[02:33:00] Beirdo: true
[02:33:05] Beirdo: maybe in the future
[02:33:16] sphery: remotecache seems to be just the preview image cache
[02:33:21] Beirdo: after the opengl slideshow effects are into mythui
[02:33:37] sphery: so I guess the other cache is in the themecache
[02:34:35] Beirdo: maybe later we can consider moving the thumbs... :)
[02:34:46] Beirdo: for now, I just wanna get them outta ~/.mythtv
[02:34:51] Beirdo: and into an SG
[02:36:27] wagnerrp: that... and voice command and noises
[02:36:44] Beirdo: hahah
[02:37:08] wagnerrp: enhance 34 to 46
[02:37:14] sphery: Yeah, agreed that they should be out of ~/.mythtv

[03:32:44] Beirdo: gah, the researching part of this is always the hard part
[03:35:26] NightMonkey: OK, not exactly mythtv-related. Anyone using Epson's XGA projectors? If so, what's your projection setup like?
[03:36:35] NightMonkey: I'm looking at the EX50/51 and PowerLite S7.
[03:37:25] Eette (Eette!~Eette@ip70-189-103-214.ok.ok.cox.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[03:37:45] wagnerrp: i would never recommend an XGA projector
[03:38:06] NightMonkey: wagnerrp: How come?
[03:38:12] wagnerrp: because its XGA
[03:38:23] wagnerrp: thats like the pinnacle of mid-90s display technology
[03:40:34] NightMonkey: Hrm, the S7 is SVGA. Yah, I hear you, but I'm doing a cost-benefit decision process.
[03:41:42] sphery: Heh, for cost/benefit, check out Runco analog projectors.
[03:42:34] NightMonkey: I also like the space-saving aspect.
[03:42:35] Eette: hey guys. I am thinking of setting up a mythtv box and wanted to know what capture cards I should consider. I was looking at the Hauppauge cards, but don't know what ones will work in linux. I should add that I will most likely use Ubuntu 10.04LTS.
[03:42:48] wagnerrp: what do you want to record?
[03:42:59] Eette: cable TV.. from cox cable
[03:43:16] wagnerrp: http://mythtv.org/wiki/Recording_Digital_Cable
[03:43:23] Eette: thank you :)
[03:43:31] Eette: i'll go read that now.
[03:45:44] NightMonkey: Ah, ok. Jokes on me. Runco, yah, $14k projectors.
[03:46:00] sphery: yeah, they're expensive
[03:46:09] sphery: though they have some amazing projectors
[03:46:10] wagnerrp: analog.... triple tube projectors?
[03:46:20] sphery: even their analog projectors rival many of the digital ones
[03:46:26] sphery: they have digital, too
[03:46:40] sphery: but analog ones are older, so better cost-benefit :)
[03:47:24] NightMonkey: Are they short-throw?
[03:47:41] wagnerrp: i bet you could get whatever you wanted for that price
[03:48:11] sphery: last I looked at them they only had analog and they were in the $30K range
[03:48:25] wagnerrp: seems they only have LCD and DLP units now
[03:48:32] wagnerrp: er, LED
[03:48:40] Beirdo: NightMonkey: I'm sure you could throw them a reasonable distance :)
[03:48:50] wagnerrp: how does an LED unit work?
[03:48:51] sphery: yeah, trying to figure out what their LED ones are...
[03:49:05] sphery: http://www.runco.com/technology/infinilight/
[03:49:18] sphery: "Solid-state illumination with individual RGB LEDs (light emitting diodes) never need replacing"
[03:49:38] sphery: I can't really see them including 2048x1080 LEDs in there...
[03:49:40] Beirdo: heh
[03:49:41] wagnerrp: so its a DLP with an LED light, instead of a bulb and colorwheel
[03:49:48] Beirdo: are they related to Ronco?
[03:49:52] sphery: heh
[03:49:54] wagnerrp: or more likely triple DLP at that price
[03:50:21] wagnerrp: 'LEDs don't burn-out'.... wait, what?
[03:50:30] Beirdo: hehe
[03:50:30] sphery: oh, so basically they have 7 colors of LED (or whatever) and just throw the light out without color wheel/mirrors
[03:50:42] sphery: not 2048x1080 individual LEDs
[03:50:48] [R] ([R]!~rbox@unaffiliated/rbox) has joined #mythtv-users
[03:50:51] Beirdo: so...
[03:51:03] sphery: or, still mirrors... but no colorwheel
[03:51:04] wagnerrp: ill give them that the 50k hours is slightly more than the 5k a normal projector bulb gets
[03:51:09] wagnerrp: but thats hardly never
[03:51:20] Beirdo: for galleries... I'm thinking the video scanner is almost what I'd want, but scan for images...
[03:51:29] sphery: well, at only $14K, you're likely to replace it every 2 years or so, so that's virtually "never"
[03:51:47] wagnerrp: miss a zero there?
[03:51:51] sphery: heh
[03:52:01] sphery: Beirdo: backend scanner...
[03:52:06] Beirdo: 0.2 years?
[03:52:12] sphery: I think that's the direction mythvideo is going
[03:52:12] wagnerrp: i was going to say 20
[03:52:14] sphery: don't know how
[03:52:14] Beirdo: sphery: yeah...
[03:52:21] wagnerrp: sphery: sorta
[03:52:22] Beirdo: that would be a lot more useful
[03:52:30] sphery: yeah
[03:52:33] wagnerrp: rather than scanning on demand of the frontend
[03:52:41] wagnerrp: the backend simply maintains a file list
[03:52:50] wagnerrp: and the frontend then pulls that file list when scanning
[03:53:05] Beirdo: well yeah
[03:53:05] wagnerrp: probably keeps hashes of each file as well
[03:53:05] sphery: so the frontend still populates db?
[03:53:13] wagnerrp: i doubt thats going to change
[03:53:24] Beirdo: it should
[03:53:33] sphery: yeah, would be nice if it changed
[03:53:37] wagnerrp: only if mythvideo got consumed by mythtv proper
[03:53:46] Beirdo: wagnerrp: hop to it
[03:53:47] Beirdo: :)
[03:53:51] sphery: heh
[03:54:04] Beirdo: get iamlindoro a keg of beer, chain him to a chair...

[03:56:35] Eette: is the Hauppauge WinTV-PVR-150 the same thing as Hauppauge PVR-150?
[03:56:47] sphery: yeah
[03:56:53] Eette: sweet. thanks.
[03:56:53] sphery: as long as they're both Hauppauge
[03:57:10] sphery: there was someone else making a PVR-150 that wasn't Hauppage
[03:57:17] sphery: might be small diffs in models, though
[03:57:24] Eette: ok. i'll keep that in mind.
[03:57:46] sphery: wagnerrp: their cinemawide is cool: http://www.runco.com/technology/cinewide/

[04:06:21] Beirdo: as in the data isn't too... useful for images, it seems
[04:06:21] sphery: and, really, do we want hashes for images?
[04:06:35] Beirdo: do we want to rescan thousands of images over and over?
[04:06:42] sphery: if we allow transforms (rotate, exif editing, etc.), the "source" file will change
[04:06:58] sphery: well, the hash only helps when the filename changes
[04:07:06] Beirdo: hmm, true
[04:07:15] sphery: but if you want to support moving them...
[04:07:28] Beirdo: I do
[04:07:29] wagnerrp: enhance
[04:07:30] sphery: though it may be easier to just put a tag in the image using exif or whatever...
[04:07:35] wagnerrp: ka-chink ka-chink ka-chink ka-chink

[04:15:19] sphery: and not really that necessary on a "single user" scale
[04:15:55] Beirdo: I think the first thing to do is to just transition the storage as is

[05:52:17] Beirdo: it was the subway scene that gave it away for me
[05:52:49] Beirdo: there's a section of subway UNDER the main subway in downtown Toronto that is used by many many movies
[05:53:14] [R]: a subway under the subway
[05:53:16] [R]: TRIPPY
[05:53:16] Beirdo: it's not used for transit, so it's easily reworked to look like whatever city
[05:53:33] Beirdo: they were going to make it two-level there, but never did in the end
[05:53:52] Beirdo: under the Bay St station on the Bloor-Danforth line

[05:57:10] Beirdo: no, correct uniforms, correct cars...
[05:57:16] sphery: It does in my 0.23-fixes, and I'm wondering if it still does in trunk.
[05:57:24] Beirdo: but they flash money thats $US
[05:57:33] Beirdo: they mix up street names

[06:03:37] Beirdo: I use trunk
[06:03:58] sphery: do you use any key modifiers? like Alt+Esc for exit?
[06:04:00] Beirdo: so far it's failed to change channels twice going to 4
[06:04:10] Beirdo: um, nope
[06:04:11] sphery: maybe you need a select?

[06:06:22] Beirdo: of course it is possible that the show changed

[06:11:05] Beirdo: yup, sounds about right
[06:11:34] kormoc: I like the fact that I can query and make sure it tuned correctly
[06:11:50] Beirdo: yah, that's super cool
[06:11:54] kormoc: if it doesn't, return a error so the backend actually knows it failed and isn't recording crap

[06:13:17] Beirdo: having to get 6 of em.. hehe
[06:13:52] wagnerrp: what ever happened to that guy in here a couple months ago who drew up a schematic for a single USB->USB unit
[06:14:09] Beirdo: wouldn't be hard
[06:14:31] Beirdo: the hard part is making sure you have the chip that the Directv box wants
[06:14:46] Beirdo: although it runs Linux, so I'd THINK it should be able to use FTDI
[06:14:58] Beirdo: but they likely didn't include that module
[06:15:52] Beirdo: still gonna look into making a USB dongle with power control for the HDPVR though
[06:16:27] Beirdo: one-off parts, it would be $30ish, I think
[06:17:46] Beirdo: and like $15 of that is the USB/serial cable (I was going to use FTDI for the good Linux driver capabilities)

[06:19:51] Beirdo: heh
[06:19:56] Beirdo: dunno

[06:20:44] Beirdo: ends up with the same value in this case, but may not in every case
[06:21:50] sphery: yeah, but it seems that since a QKeyEvent has both a key and modifiers they would be separate

[06:53:02] sphery: been broken since 0.21-fixes :)
[06:53:18] sphery: (well, it worked in 0.21-fixes, but got broken before 0.22)
[06:54:26] sphery: And the funny part is that we've fixed a few other modifier-related bugs since then, but unrelated to the LIRC modifier bug.

(The modifier fix will go to trunk and will likely get pushed to -fixes shortly after.)

[07:51:58] Beirdo: more like 4100 pictures
[07:52:07] Beirdo: I don't do raws :)
[07:52:33] sphery: PBM ftw!
[07:53:05] Beirdo: heh
[07:53:23] Beirdo: many of these are film scans from my negatives
[07:54:25] sphery: I was watching a TV show where they found some old film negatives, and on of the guys said, "I have a scanner that can do negatives. I'll see what's in it."
[07:54:48] Beirdo: heh
[07:54:55] sphery: won't negatives work on any scanner--given software to invert the image?
[07:54:59] Beirdo: my film scanner was *expensive*
[07:55:10] Beirdo: not at decent resolution, no
[07:55:17] Beirdo: mines 5400DPI
[07:55:21] sphery: right, but could do it
[07:55:27] Beirdo: yeah, could
[07:55:37] AndyCap: sphery: would be dark without backlight though
[07:55:40] sphery: so yours shines light through then captures the "enlarged" image?
[07:55:45] Beirdo: yep
[07:55:48] sphery: cool
[07:56:00] sphery: I've never done any film scanning
[07:56:01] Beirdo: it's specially designed for film negatives (and slides) only
[07:56:07] AndyCap: Beirdo: which one?
[07:56:30] sphery: AndyCap: yeah, but you could make it work well enough to "see what's in it"
[07:56:35] Beirdo: Konica-Minolta, forget the model #
[07:56:43] Beirdo: it's in the other room
[08:00:23] justinh: heh my totally ghetto poor-man's camera stabiliser is still a big fat fail
[08:00:41] justinh: I might cough up $20 for some plans after all
[08:01:28] wagnerrp: all it is is a gimbal mount with a counterweight
[08:01:37] justinh: yeah AFAIK you're always better off with a dedicated film/neg scanner
[08:01:47] justinh: wagnerrp: yeah I know, but balancing it is a cow
[08:01:50] Beirdo: heh
[08:01:55] Beirdo: hahaha
[08:02:06] Beirdo: OK, found something mythgallery needs to fix...
[08:02:21] justinh: I scanned some negs once with my ordinary scanner. it was yucky
[08:02:25] Beirdo: my pics that are supposed to be rotated... aren't?
[08:02:35] Beirdo: but info says 90deg
[08:02:45] justinh: somebody else was on about that the other day
[08:02:50] justinh: think they opened a ticket for it
[08:02:55] Beirdo: I wonder if I rotated them, and the exif never got fixed, or if it's actually a problem
[08:03:10] Beirdo: well, I have enough pics I should be able to deal with it ;)
[08:03:18] Beirdo: and the previews are crap
[08:03:32] Beirdo: it's like they resize, and use a blur filter
[08:03:54] justinh: maybe using qt's fastest resize option
[08:03:58] Beirdo: but I have a significant number of pics to test with now
[08:04:06] justinh: it's very dirty.. and tbh not that quick either
[08:04:26] Beirdo: including a pile I will be deleting from this config as I don't really need to see pics of my ex right now
[08:04:29] Beirdo: heh
[08:04:31] justinh: the difference is very noticable, and since 4.5 the speed difference is prolly minimal anyway
[08:04:45] Beirdo: yeah, that wouldn't surprise me
[08:05:12] justinh: when I was mucking about with rotation in the painter I didn't notice that much of a speed difference with qt's render tips
[08:05:27] justinh: but image quality.. oh boy

[08:09:27] sphery: could it also be an embedded thumbnail in the image that's being scaled up to the mythfrontend size?
[08:09:35] Beirdo: nope
[08:09:41] Beirdo: these don't have embedded thumbs
[08:09:44] sphery: oh

[08:10:26] amdpox: Anyone know whether mythtv can use the GMA HD in the new i5 chips to decode video?
[08:10:27] sphery: AndyCap: not yet, but soon
[08:10:31] sphery: er, amdpox ^^^
[08:10:41] sphery: at least I probably didn't wake AndyCap ...
[08:10:59] Beirdo: hmmm
[08:11:01] amdpox: sphery: ok, how soon we talking? Next stable release?

[08:11:29] Beirdo: justinh: have been for quite a while
[08:11:30] Beirdo: :)
[08:11:54] justinh: when it's been properly included in trunk... then you can more or less be assured it'll be in the next release
[08:11:59] AndyCap: sphery: zzzzz. huh, whaT?
[08:12:15] Beirdo: justinh: yeah. It's being tested right now
[08:12:19] ** AndyCap is looking forward to va-api too **
[08:12:24] justinh: Beirdo: wha? proper h.264 & everything?
[08:12:33] AndyCap: for something more than the evil bleeding poulsbo stuff
[08:12:33] justinh: no stupid resolution limit? :D
[08:12:34] Beirdo: I have a branch ready for it here, but I haven't built it yet
[08:12:52] Beirdo: AndyCap: poulsbo is still good stuff :)
[08:13:17] AndyCap: unless someone maintains the drivers, no it's not
[08:13:21] Beirdo: and I need to go there sometime with a camera :)
[08:13:29] Beirdo: blah blah blah
[08:13:41] Beirdo: Intel DOES maintain it
[08:14:19] justinh: reminds me I've found a very nasty issue in mythfrontend.. but then I need to see it after updating
[08:14:22] Beirdo: Ah, I love to see piles of recordings scheduled :)
[08:14:58] justinh: editing a recording & seeking around I mostly only see the frame from when I entered edit mode

[08:15:30] justinh: seek in the recording & the frame you're supposed to see flicks up only to be replaced by the last frame displayed before going into edit mode
[08:15:40] sphery: justinh: it's new... now you have to edit the image in each frame
[08:15:51] sphery: then accept it will go to the 2nd frame
[08:16:25] sphery: this allows you to erase the little ads on screen, but it takes a little longer
[08:16:26] justinh: lol
[08:17:23] sphery: justinh: http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/7055
[08:17:31] Beirdo: I think I'll leave the gallery for the moment and go on to watching some TV
[08:17:39] sphery: others claim to see it on Xv, but I use Xv and have never been able to repro
[08:17:46] justinh: sphery: ta, thought I'd seen a ticket for it
[08:17:46] sphery: I'm guessing they're non-nvidia Xv
[08:17:54] justinh: yeah STINKY intel
[08:17:56] Beirdo: I so need to go take pictures here in Seattle
[08:17:58] sphery: which video renderer do you use?
[08:18:04] justinh: not opengl
[08:18:05] sphery: xv, likely, with Intel
[08:18:19] justinh: I would use opengl rendering if it worked
[08:18:36] sphery: so Xv, then?
[08:18:52] justinh: lemme check
[08:19:04] sphery: hmmm... from the log on ticket: Adaptor#0: NV17 Video Texture has flag[s]: XvInputMask XvImageMask

[08:20:13] stuarta: pre freeze or post freeze?
[08:20:17] ** stuarta thinks post **

[08:22:03] Beirdo: we have so many open tickets that could use some triage, closing and fixing (as always)
[08:22:27] stuarta: hmpf. 15 open tickets against 0.23-fixes
[08:22:41] Beirdo: and a whole pile that probably SHOULD be
[08:22:56] Beirdo: but we need to go through the pile once again :)
[08:23:03] justinh: sphery: AFAICT it's Xv rendering
[08:23:16] Beirdo: We'll get better at this over time, I'm sure
[08:24:04] justinh: wasn't anywhere near the end of a recording
[08:24:50] justinh: wish things could be much more black & white with video playback profiles.
[08:24:54] sphery: I must be tired... Been spending forever trying to decide between 4 lines of "keycode &= ~Qt::ShiftModifier;" (for Shift, Meta, Ctrl, Alt) or one line of "keycode &= ~Qt::MODIFIER_MASK;" since I can't find Qt::MODIFIER_MASK (or Qt::KeyboardModifierMask) in http://doc.trolltech.com/4.5/qt.html . It was in some of the older docs, but... And, Qt::MODIFIER_MASK includes KeypadModifier and GroupSwitchModifier (and one bit higher that's not included in ...
[08:25:00] sphery: ... Qt::KeyboardModifier--for some reason).

[08:28:22] Beirdo: that's Chicagoland, right?
[08:28:28] sphery: I was impressed just how much space the Qt debug takes up (636MB for just the separate debug compared to 332MB for stripped Qt)
[08:28:37] stuarta: ouch
[08:28:57] sphery: stuarta: the strange thing is that it works in all versions of Qt4, TTBOMK.
[08:28:57] stuarta: probably why my dev process sizes are so large. i always build debug
[08:29:01] sphery: just don't know if it's going away
[08:29:07] stuarta: use the source luke
[08:29:46] Beirdo: cool
[08:29:48] sphery: I built with separate debug and it was 1GB on disk. When I moved the *.debug to my debug dir, my Qt went down to 1/3 the size
[08:29:59] Beirdo: my mattress is being shipped UPS Ground... from Chicago

[08:31:29] Beirdo: Costco is Seattle-based, but I guess this is shipped straight from the manufacturer
[08:31:37] Beirdo: yeah, Sept 1 is target freeze
[08:32:19] stuarta: that makes 4–5 Sept a good BSP target date
[08:32:45] sphery: stuarta: Better yet, use the grep... Since we're using Qt::MODIFIER_MASK elsewhere, already, I can use it here, again.  :)
[08:32:46] Beirdo: that's a weekend, right?
[08:32:59] sphery: if we end up having to change it, later, we'll change all 3 places
[08:33:10] stuarta: Beirdo: aye
[08:33:19] Beirdo: cool. sounds good
[08:33:36] sphery: Still, though, I think I'll defer committing my fix. A 4:30am commit is probably dangerous.
[08:33:42] Beirdo: I think Sept 3, I'll be off deafening myself at a Megadeth concert
[08:35:20] sphery: Symphony of Destruction
[08:35:35] Beirdo: aye, I think that's the name

[08:36:06] Beirdo: Megadeth/Slayer/Testament

[08:36:54] wagnerrp: (dont know anything about testament)
[08:37:01] Beirdo: it's a triple-header, I think
[08:37:05] sphery: would be a good concert, though
[08:37:15] Beirdo: all three are metal, but different styles of metal

[08:45:39] stuarta: it
[08:45:51] wagnerrp: im sure its just some psychoacoustic transform
[08:46:00] wagnerrp: its not reproducing the original sound
[08:46:12] wagnerrp: but simply making a fuller one than is in the mp3
[08:46:17] justinh: well you never get the original sound with mp3 anyway
[08:46:26] justinh: just a mathematical approximation
[08:46:27] stuarta: it's like $ky HD only sells because they compressed the shit out of the SD channels to the point where the quality is crap
[08:46:44] stuarta: which nobody noticed until bigger tv's became the norm
[08:46:55] justinh: MOARCHANLZ!
[08:47:10] stuarta: huge difference between the same channels on dvb-t vs sky
[08:47:16] justinh: SDTV looks fine on up to a 32" tv
[08:47:28] justinh: after that.. whoah
[08:47:45] justinh: add the fact that panels are way less forgiving than CRT...
[08:48:35] stuarta: yeah, they were relying on the CRT blur to smooth over the excess compression
[08:48:55] wagnerrp: justinh: i wonder how much of that is poor quality analog tuners theyre putting in LCDs
[08:48:56] justinh: stuff that looks like crap on a PC monitor looks nice on TV
[08:49:08] justinh: er what analogue tuners in LCDs?
[08:49:22] stuarta: wagnerrp: all the things we are talking about are dvb
[08:49:40] wagnerrp: ah, you mentioned SDTV, you just mean digital SDTV
[08:49:55] justinh: still waiting to be shown a flat panel that looks as nice as a well set up CRT
[08:50:12] justinh: wagnerrp: that's all there is in most of the UK now
[08:50:18] justinh: most/at least half
[08:51:03] wagnerrp: ive got plenty of cable channels that show up just fine on a CRT, but have all sorts of artifacts on a Samsung LCD.... but i guess im talking about a different issue entirely
[08:51:43] justinh: we're talking about mpeg2 compression artifacts
[08:51:55] justinh: mosquito noise etc
[08:52:15] stuarta: lego blocks
[08:52:40] stuarta: that's my pet hate

[08:53:38] justinh: during the simpsons for example, scenes with a lot of motion just turn to crap

[10:47:55] Jay2k1: i spent the last two days googling much for a diy steadicam for small devices
[10:48:22] Jay2k1: there are a few promising approaches
[10:49:20] Jay2k1: the probably best one is trying to imitate the Tiffen Smoothee (google it)
[10:54:04] justinh: heh
[10:55:06] justinh: yeah trying along those lines myself. I think one problem is my gimbal.. it's too low friction
[10:55:30] Jay2k1: too low?
[10:55:36] justinh: anyway, something like the hague mini motion-cam will do me fine
[10:56:03] justinh: maybe not too low friction but the slightest thing is making the camera spin round
[10:56:03] Jay2k1: usually you try to get friction in the gimbal as low as possible
[10:56:17] justinh: used 2 bearings & a u-joint
[10:56:36] Jay2k1: yeah, i'm planning on using a single bearing and a u-joint
[10:56:54] Jay2k1: think i'm gonna use a skate bearing as almost everyone on the net does
[10:57:34] Jay2k1: and see where i could get a matching u-joint, either where i can buy tools or at some rc model car store
[10:57:57] justinh: heheh mine's an rc model thing
[10:58:10] justinh: got a pack of 10 skate bearings for like £2
[10:58:21] justinh: the u-joint is made by traxxas
[10:58:51] Jay2k1: have you seen that homepage of that dude that really got into his selfmade steadicam? who already has the fourth or fifth redesign of that part?
[10:59:00] justinh: yeah
[10:59:01] Jay2k1: he uses traxxas as well
[10:59:10] justinh: that was where I got the idea :)
[10:59:24] Jay2k1: he added these small wind covers because wind would have some impact on his setup as well
[10:59:40] justinh: up to now I've been using pvc waste pipe for the frame part
[10:59:55] Jay2k1: and he has this ingenious friction washer just above his torchlight
[11:00:08] justinh: yeah I've modified a bearing ready for that ;)
[11:00:17] Jay2k1: lol
[11:00:20] Jay2k1: such a coincidence
[11:00:44] justinh: I've wanted nice walking shots for ages.. years
[11:00:53] justinh: never had a camcorder til now though
[11:00:56] Jay2k1: haha
[11:01:04] justinh: well not my own anyway
[11:01:17] justinh: and this panasonic thing weighing in at 320 grams.. sheesh
[11:01:25] Jay2k1: and i got the iphone 4 now and am impressed by its video quality, but as with every phone or other small lightweight device it's shaking like hell
[11:01:36] Jay2k1: that's why i started googling for some small steadicam like device
[11:01:51] Jay2k1: i don't even know if i'd use it often when i have one heh
[11:01:53] justinh: heh the camcorder had optical image stabilisation which is pretty good
[11:02:01] justinh: but it's no steadicam ;)
[11:02:11] Jay2k1: right
[11:02:28] Jay2k1: it may compensate your hand trembling but that's all about it
[11:02:55] Jay2k1: i'm so impressed of all those demo videos with people jumping or running up or down stairs
[11:04:06] justinh: yeah the running shot is my holy grail
[11:04:20] Jay2k1: i think when i try to build such a thing the gimbal will be the smallest problem...
[11:04:33] Jay2k1: balancing the thing out will be much more trouble i guess
[11:04:45] justinh: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cKZa4-TSJY would be awesome
[11:05:48] justinh: not bad for only OIS I think
[11:06:04] Jay2k1: true
[11:06:09] justinh: the gimbal is reckoned to be the hard bit. I got that sorted dead easy
[11:06:13] Jay2k1: but still that NEEDS a steadicam :>
[11:06:33] Jay2k1: well i gotta see to find parts that can be easily attached to each other
[11:07:07] Jay2k1: did you also use a torchlight?
[11:07:20] justinh: no, I got some 3/4 plastic pipe
[11:07:28] justinh: 21.5mm internal diameter
[11:07:36] Jay2k1: ah
[11:07:42] justinh: the bearings fit inside a coupler really nice
[11:07:46] Jay2k1: well i figured i'd first buy the skate bearing
[11:07:48] justinh: oops 21.5mm external dia
[11:08:00] Jay2k1: so i could buy a handle and a u-joint that matches the bearing
[11:08:02] justinh: standard plastic waste pipe AFAIK
[11:08:08] justinh: was like £2 for 2 metres
[11:08:15] justinh: then a bunch of couplings for pennies
[11:08:48] Jay2k1: yeah i'm gonna have a look what my local ...market thing (home depot like) has to offer when it comes to such pipings
[11:09:08] Jay2k1: i'm a bit afraid pvc won't be as sturdy as pipes made from metal
[11:09:41] Jay2k1: hmm i guess you call it hardware store huh

[12:54:33] jayvee: even that looks better than my mythfrontend's output
[12:54:49] jayvee: besides, when vlc displays the subtitles, it displays it in a nice font
[12:54:54] jayvee: so I don't see why mythtv can't
[12:54:57] jayvee: the data is there.
[12:55:44] justinh: so you mean *subtitles* not teletext
[12:55:53] justinh: if you mean subtitles say subtitles :)
[12:56:06] johd (johd!~johd@dyn167237.wlan.jku.at) has joined #mythtv-users
[12:56:23] justinh: what resolution is the video? because guess what... overlayed stuff in mythtv will be the same resolution as the video unless you're using the opengl renderer
[12:57:08] justinh: so if the video is low res block-o-vision, the OSD overlay (teletext, subtitles etc) will also be low-res block-o-vision
[12:57:18] Jay2k1: for the camera support that won't be much of a problem, since i plan on doing it for my iphone only, i'll just use a cheap self-adhesive car mount which i'll stick to a 90 degree metal angle plate
[12:57:24] justinh: again, unless you're using the opengl video renderer :)
[12:57:32] justinh: Jay2k1: heh
[12:57:59] justinh: my effort still doesn't have high enough intertia. Might just buy one
[12:58:06] justinh: *inertia
[12:58:49] Jay2k1: well, apart from the high priced tiffen devices, there's also that manfrotto modosteady
[12:59:16] Jay2k1: although i think it might not be sturdy enough, on the other hand it may be used as a small tripod and a shoulder supported stabilizer as well

[14:03:11] justinh: don't worry though – you can buy a plugin for your video editor to fix it. only like $500
[14:05:03] sid3windr: whatis rolling shutter?
[14:05:32] justinh: rolling shutter is where data is shifted out of the sensor at a slower rate than the video framerate
[14:05:44] justinh: or rather slower than the shutter interval
[14:06:00] ** sid3windr is wikipedia'ing **
[14:11:16] justinh: anyway rolling shutter is why I bought a 'proper' camcorder not a cheapo pocket one :)
[14:19:33] Jay2k1: yeah but.. IT'S HD!
[14:20:18] Jay2k1: at slow movement the quality is really impressive – for a phone anyway – but with quick horizontal movement it's clearly visible
[14:21:23] Jay2k1: another argument against the >200$ smoothee heh
[14:23:19] Jay2k1: sid3windr when the sensor chip doesn't take a frame completely on instant but captures line by line (imagine it's like picture is drawn line by line on CRT monitors)

[14:53:22] pepinito: Hi! I'm making my own xmltv grabber. Everything works ok, except mythtv (or mythfilldatabase) keeps mapping the programs to the wrong channels. Any idea on this or how to troubleshoot? Any one with experience in tuning a xmltv for mythtv?
[14:54:04] wagnerrp: pepinito: first guess would be you have the XMLTV IDs mapped wrong in the channel editor
[14:55:39] Jay2k1: http://pub.jay2k1.com/iphone4-testvideo.mov
[14:56:00] wagnerrp: i dont even trust something like the HDPVR to do so
[14:56:20] wagnerrp: i mean h264 is designed to do better than double the compression of mpeg2
[14:56:20] pepinito: wagnerrp: The IDs are ok, I checked both the channel editor and the channel TABLE. Something happens when loading the programs.
[14:56:37] wagnerrp: and people still force the bitrate to 13.5mbps
[14:56:43] wagnerrp: about 2/3 that of the source

[15:02:33] lyricnz is now known as lyricnzzzzzzzzzz
[15:02:34] pepinito: wagnerrp: they are all ok, I'm fetching the channels from the grabber directly. Is there any way to make the mythfilldatabase program filling verbose?
[15:02:35] wagnerrp: not great, but decent
[15:02:51] wagnerrp: i would expect a nice mpeg2 decoder to produce that quality at that bitrate

[17:16:09] rhollan: Question... is the model that stored media (photos, music, videos, but NOT recordings) are stored on the front-end (with storage groups used to provide access to remote FEs without the need for NFS hackery), and recordings are stored on the backend with a known access method that each FE uses?
[17:16:09] iamlindoro: Given it's extremely limited usefulness, it's not surprising
[17:16:26] rhollan: I keep getting confused that all storage is a BE thing
[17:16:41] wagnerrp: rhollan: previously, only recordings were stored on the frontend
[17:16:56] rhollan: waaaa?
[17:16:57] wagnerrp: and all other media was accessed independently through their own means
[17:17:12] wagnerrp: mythvideo is the first to move to storage groups, where the storage is managed by the backend
[17:17:13] rhollan: Now I'm really confused. I thought the BE handled recording
[17:17:23] wagnerrp: erm... backend i mean
[17:17:32] rhollan: O.K. then I understand correctly
[17:17:57] wagnerrp: music and photos are expected to be migrated to storage groups in the next version or two
[17:18:06] rhollan: mythweb, therefore, runs on a FE (or a combo FE/BE), right?
[17:18:16] wagnerrp: mythweb runs on neither
[17:18:24] wagnerrp: it is a web application run under apache
[17:18:35] rhollan: and it grabs file directly?
[17:18:46] rhollan: so it runs where the files "are".
[17:19:02] wagnerrp: for its streaming purposes, it can pull music over the mythxml interface
[17:19:12] wagnerrp: but all other file access must be done through the local file system
[17:19:20] rhollan: ... from the BE? or FE?
[17:19:28] rhollan: for mythxml
[17:19:34] wagnerrp: mythxml is a webserver built into the backend
[17:20:04] wagnerrp: http://backend:6544/xml and http://backend:6544/GetServDesc
[17:20:08] rhollan: So, music served throug mythweb has to be on the BE, but is historically only accessable by the FE, so they have to be one and the same.
[17:20:14] wagnerrp: http://backend:6544/Myth/GetServDesc rather
[17:20:38] wagnerrp: no, music served through mythweb can be handled traditionally through the file system
[17:20:52] wagnerrp: however if it is not available on the filesystem, it can fall back through to mythxml
[17:21:09] rhollan: So, it has to run on the same machine as the FE, since only the FE can import it.
[17:21:09] wagnerrp: specifically http://backend:6544/Myth/GetMusic
[17:21:23] rhollan: OR use mythxml
[17:21:26] wagnerrp: no, it can run anywhere that has the music mounted in the same location
[17:21:54] rhollan: right... so traditionally that would be where the music is natively stored.. wich would be a FE.
[17:22:05] rhollan: FE's rip music, not BEs, right?
[17:22:20] wagnerrp: or any machine that has the storage mounted over NFS, or some other form of network file system
[17:22:27] sid3windr: depends where you put the cd, rhollan ? :P
[17:22:47] sphery: what's a cd?
[17:22:50] rhollan: right, I am thinking, of non-NFS mounts to simplify things.
[17:23:07] rhollan: sid3winder: but don't I have to run FE to rip a cd? Even if on a combo FE/BE?
[17:23:07] wagnerrp: one of those investment things you get from a bank
[17:23:26] sphery: ah, yeah
[17:25:22] rhollan: So, *traditionally* (ignoring NFS and Storage Groups), BEs record live TV on their local file systems, and FEs rip media to their local filesystems. mythweb serves media from it's local file system (or via mythxml). Of course, with a combo FE/BE these are all one machine (and file system). Right?
[17:26:29] rhollan: It only gets confusing with additional FEs that are not BEs. I can see how they contact the BE for recordings, can use mythxml to get media from *other than it's local filesystem*, namely the BE/FE combo, then.
[17:27:24] wagnerrp: yes, it can be confusing, which is why there is a push to move everything over to storage groups
[17:27:44] rhollan: Have I got it right? So, for example, if I access a ripped CD on a BE, it's likely because it's also an FE that ripped it in the first place.
[17:28:00] wagnerrp: the backend does not support dvd ripping, only the frontend
[17:28:15] wagnerrp: erm, cd ripping
[17:29:19] rhollan: Riiiight... So, for me to have a FE access music from a remote machine via mythxml, that remote machine (a) is a BE running mythxml (or is that just an apache-fronted php app?), and probably was also an FE to rip the disk in the first place.
[17:29:42] sphery: iamlindoro: how's this for pedantic... Doesn't making MythNetvision non-beta mean you need to move the configure output saying whether it's enabled or disabled so that it's in proper alphabetical order?
[17:29:57] sphery: (that's a joke--I don't care either way)
[17:30:21] iamlindoro: sphery: feel free ;)
[17:31:13] sphery: heh, perfect answer :)
[17:31:42] rhollan: Also, if mythweb allows for deletion of music tracks, then it must talk to the DB on the "master" BE, right?
[17:32:00] wagnerrp: the database is not on the master backend
[17:32:27] rhollan: "is not" or "does not have to be"
[17:32:44] wagnerrp: the database is on the database server, where ever you have that running
[17:32:57] wagnerrp: completely independent from mythtv and your backends

[17:33:32] rhollan: Traditionally I see it on my master BE because the first thing I ever set up was a FE/BE combo, and I had to put the DB somewhere, and that's where it went.
[17:33:42] rhollan: But, yes, it can be anywhere.
[17:34:08] wagnerrp: there has been talk of moving the database internal to the master backend, but nothing has happened on that front yet
[17:34:16] rhollan: Still, if mythweb allows for deletion of content, then the php scripts must talk to the DB, no? Or are only recordings tracked in the DB?
[17:34:30] rhollan: NO! Keep the DB wherever it wants to be.
[17:34:42] rhollan: If it's on the master BE, so be it, but don't make it a requirement.
[17:34:52] wagnerrp: everything is stored in the database
[17:34:54] rhollan: just a possibility (even a default if no DB already exists).

[17:35:00] rhollan: Right, that's what I thought.
[17:35:00] sphery: there's much benefit to running mysqld locally on the master backend--i.e. mysqld is a single point of failure for MythTV, so keeping it close to the mbe (another single point of failure) makes sense
[17:35:02] wagnerrp: sphery: you want to field that one? ^^^
[17:35:17] sphery: rhollan: won't be a requirement
[17:35:31] rhollan: sphery: sure, no argument. DESIRABLE, of course, for the reason you mention.
[17:35:43] sphery: just won't require you to install, configure, properly set permissions on, maintain (including analyze, optimize, repair), ... the DB
[17:36:15] sphery: basically, we'll just have a data server that you run anywhere--just like you currently run mysqld anywhere
[17:36:25] rhollan: actually, there would be advantages to that, if mythtv ever support the notion of different users with different privs.
[17:36:35] sphery: so nothing changes--except that users no longer have to be MySQL DB admins
[17:36:37] rhollan: But the right way to do that would be via LDAP.
[17:37:04] rhollan: and a long way off... I expect.
[17:37:10] wagnerrp: now youre pulling in more complex external dependencies
[17:37:17] ** sphery hopes to work on it after 0.24 is released **
[17:37:21] wagnerrp: thats what were trying to get away from
[17:37:23] sphery: would be nice to have it done for 0.25
[17:37:42] rhollan: wagnerrp: true, and overkill if you don't ALREADY have a user database.
[17:37:50] sphery: if we do real multi-user, it will almost definitely be done via the DB
[17:38:05] rhollan: but, if you do, adding "readonly" or "readwrite" mythtv attributes to existing user records in LDAP is trivial.
[17:38:13] sphery: to limit dependencies and because you generally don't want to set up mythtv as a full-fledged network user
[17:38:20] wagnerrp: sure, but youve got to get an LDAP server set up
[17:38:21] sphery: (at least I don't)
[17:38:33] wagnerrp: and thats not something trivial we want to require of users
[17:38:41] rhollan: n o, certainly not require.
[17:39:17] sphery: I see ldap as just another storage mechanism (of which we already have one--mysql)
[17:39:40] sphery: only reason it's good for authentication/authorization is because a lot of system/network A&A hooks into it
[17:39:50] sphery: but if we don't need system/network A&A integration...
[17:40:31] rhollan: I guess you'd handle authorization via mysql privs for each of the users then, and let the DB handle "unautorized" operations on it, and have the UI report them?
[17:40:33] sphery: I fully admit I may be missing something, but that's what I see now
[17:40:45] sphery: no, all A&A would be in mythtv
[17:41:11] rhollan: So, myth would query the DB for privs and act acordingly?
[17:41:13] sphery: getting a random MySQL error code that says, "not authorized" when trying to do something isn't very easy to deal with in mythtv code
[17:41:16] sphery: right
[17:41:32] devinheitmueller (devinheitmueller!~devin@pool-108-6-2-241.nycmny.fios.verizon.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[17:41:47] rhollan: allows there to only be one mythtv DB user, too. Simpler.
[17:41:53] sphery: exactly
[17:41:56] sphery: less system config
[17:42:23] sphery: then just set up Mom, Dad, junior, etc. in MythTV
[17:42:32] rhollan: O.K. Here's the kicker: formatting SQL queries and formatting LDAP queries is a trivial difference.
[17:42:43] rhollan: though you have to parse the responses a bit differently.
[17:42:51] sphery: and specify MythTV-specific info (i.e. junior cannot access the Parents recgroup nor set up recording schedules for shows airing after 8:00pm or ...)
[17:43:25] rhollan: Abstract the authorization API and permit plugins for different DB backends. Make mysql the first one implemented.
[17:43:31] sphery: so custom A&A (especially the authorization part) makes a log of sense with our application needs
[17:43:40] sphery: we'll never allow multiple DB's
[17:43:47] sphery: truly portable SQL is too limited
[17:43:49] rhollan: sphery: that's just DB schema stuff, though, and easily ported to LDAP from SQL.
[17:44:01] sphery: even "generally portable" is limiting
[17:44:19] sphery: and there's no benefit to having multiple storage engines--especially if we do an embedded db
[17:44:38] sphery: i.e. why should you care whether we use MySQL or PostgreSQL?
[17:44:48] rhollan: the benefit is existing users with existing passwords in an EXISTING database.
[17:44:54] sphery: it would be like refusing to run MythTV because it uses Qt as a framework and you like GTK
[17:44:59] rhollan: you don't have to add them all over again.

[17:45:41] rhollan: No, you add the authorization information only.
[17:46:04] rhollan: But, there's another way.
[17:46:06] sphery: well, we're not likely to use passwords like a normal computer program
[17:46:26] rhollan: If you store your A&A in a mysql database, LDAP can use that for auth.
[17:46:27] sphery: i.e. you don't want to type "lG8eY!td2" on a remote every time you want to watch TV
[17:46:32] rhollan: turn it around.
[17:46:35] sphery: so we'll have custom authentication
[17:46:42] rhollan: No, you use auth for priv escalation.
[17:46:58] sphery: so the only thing you'd gain by re-using normal system auth stuff is not having to type in user names (one time)
[17:47:13] rhollan: and syncing passwords between databases.

[17:48:01] kormoc: and a horrible idea for remote users (majoirty)
[17:48:08] sphery: we just need "click user to log in as", maybe require a PIN for access to restricted stuff

[17:49:18] rhollan: Hmm.
[17:50:31] rhollan: For remote control users, that makes sense. I was thinking of users of wireless devices that ALREADY have to authenticate to get on the LAND and automatically get the necessary myth privs associated with their account.
[17:50:51] rhollan: IOW; foo@bar.com has myth pin abcd
[17:52:21] sphery: well, at least in my case, I'd want those not-explicitly-approved-by-me users treated as guests that can view recordings and videos but can not change anything.
[17:52:46] rhollan: right.
[17:52:49] sphery: and maybe even restrict other things, too (like viewing my mythgallery images, etc)
[17:53:18] sphery: so we just have a guest account with no pin that the users access until they beg me for an actual mythtv user
[17:53:24] rhollan: so you decide what privs you need and how much fine-grained control you require.
[17:53:36] rhollan: and, I suppose, map that to PINs.
[17:54:07] sphery: anyway, replacing the need for users to be MySQL admins with the need for users to become sysadmins is not the plan :)

[17:55:18] iamlindoro: rhollan: I note you always have an opinion how we should be developing myth-- you seem a smart fellow, when will the patches start rolling in?  :)
[17:55:37] sphery: rhollan: no, it requires MythTV to say, "OK, Dad said delete the show, so remove it from his list of shows, but since Mom still has it in her list, don't actually delete the file."
[17:55:46] sphery: i.e. the app controls all app data access, so...
[17:56:02] rhollan: iamlindoro: when I get a better feel of how things go together, and what the general direction is.
[17:56:13] rhollan: And after I complete my wireless rollout at home.
[17:56:14] kormoc: a ACL is hardly a complex enough piece of code to warrant a invasive external dependency on
[17:56:15] sphery: and if Dad goes in and deletes the file directly from the HDD, he can explain to Mom why she can't see this week's episode of Grey's Anatomy and live with the consequences.
[17:56:31] kormoc: sphery, it's completely true, aye
[17:56:48] sphery: kormoc: ah, fun... so we'll have to scrub the entire code base, it seems.
[17:57:07] kormoc: yeah...
[17:57:23] ** kormoc nudges unix timestamps for the Nth time **
[17:57:30] kormoc: it's too bad they won't code themselves
[17:57:44] rhollan: kormoc: no. But if you seek to map PINs to ACLs, which is what you appear to be doing, AND already have an external user DB, mapping those existing users to those ACLs, or PINS is really neat: if someone ALREADY logged in to get network access, they should AUTOMATICALLY get the appropriate mythtv privs.
[17:58:11] sphery: rhollan: we don't need acls
[17:58:22] kormoc: rhollan, you're talking about a user base of how many folks are in your household
[17:58:27] sphery: we just need to let mythtv know not to delete a file until everyone who wants that recording has seen it

[18:02:14] sphery: yeah
[18:02:39] rhollan: well, O.K. just one to identify someone from "anonymous" to specific privs.
[18:02:49] rhollan: so, you can do something with no PIN.
[18:03:07] rhollan: (like, at least provide a PIN, in the extreme case, if everyone has to log in).
[18:03:10] kormoc: it's not even really privs as just tracking who did what
[18:03:14] iamlindoro: If you choose to not configure user access, no pin = administrator

[18:07:48] rhollan: and the model? Do recorders give permission to individuals, or do individuals have different levels of "override" capability?

[20:22:24] johnnyj: oh sphery wrote that?
[20:22:30] johnnyj: nice
[20:23:14] sphery: no, xr is did
[20:23:18] wagnerrp: it was written long before sphery was around
[20:23:21] sphery: I just committed a bunch of changes to it
[20:23:26] johnnyj: o
[20:23:32] wagnerrp: sphery just cleaned it up, removed the rename ability, and has been maintaining it
[20:23:34] sphery: actually it was writting long after I was around, but long before I was anybody :)
[20:24:17] sphery: johnnyj: it's even faster in trunk, now, if you do the single-recording rename using --chanid and --starttime
[20:24:25] jduggan: 6/win 22
[20:24:49] sphery: and, if you would like to patch it to do a QUERY_RECORDING TIMESLOT <basename> when users pass --filename, it could be even faster for that
[20:25:02] sphery: (I use chanid/starttime, so I didn't care to patch --filename :)
[20:25:12] sphery: but it would fast to do so
[20:25:24] johnnyj: sphery: sigh... perl leaves me alone when I leave perl alone
[20:25:29] sphery: slow part would be testing with good and bad values and verifying its doing what it should

[20:26:03] wagnerrp: johnnyj: aww, even i could make that simple change to a perl script
