[00:08:58] wagnerrp: sphery: still around?
[00:09:33] sphery: yeah
[00:10:06] wagnerrp: got any opinion on a new TOC for the wiki manual? http://mythtv.org/wiki/User_Manual:About
[00:10:21] wagnerrp: versus the old? http://mythtv.org/wiki/User_Manual:Introduction
[00:10:32] sphery: pretty
[00:10:42] sphery: and more useful, too
[00:11:07] sphery: since it doesn't force users to scroll way down on their short laptop/netbook screens to get to the content
[00:11:08] wagnerrp: i just never liked those 'prev/next/up/...' type navigation
[00:11:31] sphery: yeah, very hard to use
[00:11:59] sphery: you should make it keyboard-shortcut safe :)
[00:12:29] ** wagnerrp requests someone who actually knows something about web programming **
[00:12:46] wagnerrp: what issues is it having?
[00:13:10] sphery: I mean make it so users can hit a key combo to go to prev next
[00:13:16] sphery: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Access_key
[00:14:18] wagnerrp: so alt+shift+right should go to the next in the list?
[00:14:38] sphery: right
[00:14:42] sphery: if you define an accesskey
[00:14:48] wagnerrp: well the old one didnt do it either
[00:14:53] sphery: right
[00:14:55] sphery: this would be new
[00:15:08] wagnerrp: the new one, ive got no clue how to pull that off
[00:15:09] sphery: it's a personal pet peeve of mine when I have to use a stupid mouse
[00:15:34] sphery: if it's not easy, then no worries
[00:15:51] wagnerrp: well i was going to have it highlight the page you were on
[00:16:01] wagnerrp: doing so would require a fair bit of logic
[00:16:05] sphery: ah
[00:16:09] wagnerrp: and would make adding access keys fairly simple
[00:16:23] wagnerrp: except it seems mediawiki did that automagically for me
[00:16:24] sphery: yeah, figured if you knew the current page, it would be easy enough to do the rest
[00:16:32] sphery: ah, then not worth it
[00:16:36] sphery: if only mw knows
[00:17:01] wagnerrp: if i figure out how its bolding the current page

[00:17:19] wagnerrp: i could probably hack it in to the javascript running the expandable lists
[00:17:32] sphery: not worthwhil
[00:17:45] sphery: like you said, it didn't do it before
[00:18:21] sphery: I'm just too used to working in code where I know where I'm at--i.e. not using wiki, but a real programming language for creating pages/navigation

[00:19:00] wagnerrp: well to be fair, the list is written in javascript
[00:19:10] wagnerrp: not wiki markup
[00:19:59] wagnerrp: its screwing with the edit buttons
[00:20:13] sphery: like I said, though, "real programming language" :)
[00:20:19] wagnerrp: yeah yeah
[00:20:26] wagnerrp: so, ruby?
[00:20:31] sphery: heh
[00:20:33] wagnerrp: :)
[00:20:37] sphery: actually, usually Java
[00:20:44] wagnerrp: aww
[00:21:00] sphery: I'd consider Ruby for some things, though
[00:21:15] wagnerrp: thats not a programming language, thats something you drink to allow you to use programming languages
[00:22:31] wagnerrp: speaking of ruby, there was someone in the dev channel earlier wanting to access the backend protocol through ruby
[00:22:54] sphery: heh, those who diss Java just don't get Java
[00:22:54] wagnerrp: i did some prodding about 'proper bindings'
[00:23:04] sphery: yeah, proper bindings for Ruby would be the way to go
[00:23:05] wagnerrp: but i dont think any of those prods were solid hits
[00:23:11] sphery: too bad :(
[00:23:18] sphery: not that we need tons of new bindings to support
[00:23:38] wagnerrp: no, but the more the merrier (if there's someone to support them)
[00:23:41] sphery: but if we got someone serious who was willing to take care of them (like you with the Python bindings), it could be a very good thing
[00:23:44] sphery: exactly
[00:23:53] wagnerrp: id still love to see php bindings forked out of mythweb
[00:24:16] sphery: agreed
[00:24:33] sphery: but when kor moc finishes the Python port, it will be OBE
[00:24:42] sphery: :)
[00:31:01] iamlindoro: then he'll finally have learned about OSS
[00:31:09] sphery: yeah
[00:31:29] sphery: if you're not doing the code that random people on the 'net demand you do, you just don't get FOSS
[00:31:43] iamlindoro: just like icons in MNV
[00:31:47] sphery: exactly
[00:32:04] iamlindoro: they should be in themes. Because.
[00:32:05] inordkuo (inordkuo!~inorkuo@adsl-18-178-55.int.bellsouth.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:32:29] sphery: yes, because all themes should have to know about all supported grabber scripts
[00:32:33] iamlindoro: we can have youtube_foreignfilms_graphite.png and youtube.filmsforeign.arclight.jpg and..
[00:32:55] RDV_Linux: haha
[00:33:03] sphery: just like all apps in existence should incorporate DBus code to talk to GNOME screensaver and to talk to KDE screensaver
[00:33:25] sphery: and non-DBus code for xscreensaver, xlockmore, ...
[00:33:56] DarkSaboteur (DarkSaboteur!~chatzilla@115.187.255.224) has quit (Remote host closed the connection)
[00:33:59] sphery: versus having a single piece of code to interact with any existing screensaver
[00:34:06] wagnerrp: no sphery, clearly xscreensaver and xlockmore are broken because they do not listen to dbus
[00:34:14] sphery: redundancy is the hallmark of good design
[00:34:46] wagnerrp: redundancy is the bastion of programmers who write imperfect code
[00:34:54] sphery: wagnerrp: yeah, true... a screensaver app that's designed to use /only/ X libs should write custom dbus code (since it can't use dbus libs)...
[00:35:21] ** wagnerrp codes ice cream and farts rainbows **
[00:35:26] sphery: I forgot about that approach--even though it adds even more redundancy
[00:35:47] sphery: still, though, the dbus code works differently for GNOME and KDE screensavers
[00:35:51] leprechau (leprechau!~leprechau@c-98-240-50-163.hsd1.tn.comcast.net) has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
[00:36:05] sphery: couldn't use a single standard comm method for both
[00:36:38] sphery: Unfortunately, the GNOME/KDE guys may get their wishes--johnnyj is doing a screensaver-dbus implementation for us
[00:36:57] wagnerrp: dont we already hook into dbus for something?
[00:37:06] sphery: yeah for shutdown stuff
[00:37:13] sphery: Qt has all the dbus code we need
[00:37:13] wagnerrp: ah
[00:37:31] sphery: but it's a matter of writing code to send raw dbus commands about the screensaver
[00:37:35] sphery: then interpreting the output
[00:37:52] sphery: then keeping them up-to-date with changes to GNOME and (separate, distinct) changes to KDE
[00:38:06] sphery: and trying to make it work across all versions of the GNOME/KDE DBus screensaver APIs
[00:38:10] sphery: and ...
[00:38:26] sphery: after all, xdg-screensaver just makes /too/ much sense for a DE to support it

[01:15:45] gizmobay: hmm wonder what's wrong with mine. When I run with -v audio I see this in the logs mixer unable to find control Master 1
[01:16:05] gizmobay: I can control my volume.
[01:16:05] wagnerrp: digital audio?
[01:16:09] gizmobay: analog
[01:16:20] wagnerrp: then you likely have your mixer controls set up wrong
[01:19:36] benc_ (benc_!~benc@markcaswell.dsl.visi.com) has quit (Ping timeout: 260 seconds)
[01:20:13] sphery: the unable to find control is unimportant
[01:20:40] sphery: it's only important if you have your system configured with Mixer controls: Master

[01:29:22] gizmobay: I changed my mixer device to software and now it works
[01:29:37] sphery: speakers on the green plug?
[01:30:37] sphery: if your new mobo has no PCM and no Master control (versus just no Master), you can't do internal volume control, except with software mixer
[01:30:53] sphery: you'd have to make a PCM or Master control for it to work
[01:31:02] gizmobay: yes speakers on green plug
[01:31:17] benc_ (benc_!~benc@markcaswell.dsl.visi.com) has joined #mythtv-users
[01:31:20] sphery: (which would be putting a softvol in ALSA versus in MythTV, so no benefit to that approach when looking only at MythTV)
[01:31:23] gizmobay: but I was able to change volume just couldn't mute
[01:31:48] sphery: and you have it set to Mixer controls: PCM
[01:32:23] gizmobay: Master was what it was set to. I also tried PCM.
[01:32:37] sphery: if you have no Master control, it can't be Master
[01:32:43] sphery: (and work)
[01:32:55] sphery: same applies for PCM
[01:33:12] jamesd_ (jamesd_!~jamesd@adsl-76-229-147-2.dsl.milwwi.sbcglobal.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[01:33:22] gizmobay: if I had no master control does this mean I won't be able to change the volume?
[01:33:43] sphery: no, if you have no master /and/ you have no PCM, you can't change the volume without software volume
[01:33:50] sphery: if you have one or the other, you're good
[01:33:57] sphery: and can make it work with hardware
[01:34:20] gizmobay: I was able to change the volume with it set to Master, I just couldn't mute.
[01:35:14] sphery: right, because it was falling back to some "just do whatever I can" code
[01:35:42] sphery: you shouldn't have it set to Mixer controls: Master if you have no master

[01:36:47] gizmobay: How can I tell if I have a master? aplay -L?
[01:39:56] gizmobay: amixer get Master?

[01:43:06] gizmobay: Simple mixer control 'Master',0

[01:43:07] gizmobay: Playback channels: Mono
[01:43:07] gizmobay: Limits: Playback 0 – 31
[01:43:07] gizmobay: Mono: Playback 14 [45%] [-25.50dB] [on]
[01:43:53] sphery: alsamixer
[01:44:00] sphery: scroll 'til you see Master, PCM, etc.
[01:44:46] gizmobay: okay
[01:44:47] sphery: the master 1 just means the 2nd channel on master
[01:44:52] sphery: so you have a master, but it's mono
[01:44:55] sphery: which is what you found
[01:45:10] sphery: whether master can be used to mute others, though, is dependent on sound card wiring
[01:45:20] sphery: you can always mute pcm by muting pcm
[01:45:27] sphery: thus, change to Mixer controls: PCM
[01:45:31] sphery: assuming you have a PCM control
[01:47:11] gizmobay: I have both Master and PCM
[01:47:25] sphery: perfect, then set it up as mixer controls pcm and it should work
[01:48:44] [R]: wagnerrp: BLAH... fuse-python requires gcc
[01:49:06] wagnerrp: to compile, yes
[01:49:46] [R]: im gonna try to compile it on my host with my xcompiler
[01:51:26] gizmobay: It doesn't work when set to PCM no mute or volume control. Set to Master means volume control no mute, set to software means I can control mute and volume.
[01:53:09] sphery: are you using Pulse?
[01:53:19] gizmobay: no pulse
[01:53:37] sphery: well, I'm not sure what's happening
[01:53:43] sphery: it should work with proper config
[01:54:16] sphery: not sure why it's not working with PCM
[01:56:06] high-rez: So I have a DVD that allows me to play audio only segments from its menu (not sure if they're 'dvd audio'). When I try to play the music, the plugin is freaking out.
[02:01:07] gizmobay: With master I can't take volume all the way down to zero as I still hear the volume.

[02:14:52] k-man: but i'm not sure i want X or the wm to quit if i quit the fe
[02:15:07] wagnerrp: this is a dedicated frontend?

[02:15:48] sphery: could have it run a program that polls the status of your mood ring

[02:16:12] wagnerrp: k-man: why would you ever want to quit the frontend, on a dedicated frontend?
[02:16:29] k-man: wagnerrp: in case something is broken and i need to fix it
[02:16:47] k-man: wagnerrp: wich i grant is very rare
[02:17:04] wagnerrp: so you fix it, close the frontend, and X and the frontend gets automatically respawned
[02:17:19] wagnerrp: if you mean fixing something on a backend
[02:17:30] wagnerrp: the frontend will happily sit and wait for the frontend to become available again
[02:17:32] k-man: no – a more generic fix it
[02:18:20] k-man: its like those scripts to make x start automaticaly when you log in – they are dangerous imho as few of them include any kind of fail safe against X not starting, so you end up in this look of X trying to start and failing
[02:18:50] wagnerrp: k-man: got an example of such a script?
[02:19:50] k-man: http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?t=16348 as an example
[02:20:22] wagnerrp: yes, that script is doing it wrong
[02:20:41] wagnerrp: get rid of the while loop, and just do 'startx'
[02:21:16] sphery: then X only restarts if you log out
[02:21:38] wagnerrp: of course you will automatically logout as soon as X terminates
[02:21:46] wagnerrp: resulting in a start/fail loop
[02:21:56] sphery: assuming you run a DM
[02:21:58] wagnerrp: which will be terminated by your terminal manager according to your span limiter
[02:22:03] wagnerrp: *spawn
[02:22:37] wagnerrp: loop too many times in too short a time, and the loop will automatically be exited
[02:23:21] sphery: and if not using a DM, you can always limit it in the script yourself
[02:23:27] sphery: (in the loop)
[02:24:09] wagnerrp: were branchin! WERE BRANCHIN!
[02:26:48] k-man: wagnerrp: so how would you do it?
[02:27:15] wagnerrp: follow those directions
[02:27:19] wagnerrp: but omit the 'while' loop

[02:29:39] wagnerrp: k-man: oh, and put a 'logout' in there after 'startx'
[02:29:52] wagnerrp: basically, it will log in, run X
[02:30:02] wagnerrp: if X terminates for whatever reason, it will log back out
[02:30:10] k-man: ah, thats a good way
[02:30:12] wagnerrp: and the terminal manager will automatically log back in
[02:30:35] wagnerrp: if the terminal manager runs the same command too many times, it gives up
[02:30:52] sphery: ah, that will work with the logout
[02:30:55] k-man: i also put in a test for a file, if file is there, don't startx, as a fail safe
[02:31:06] wagnerrp: meaning if X itself is failing, youll hit the limit within a few seconds
[02:31:11] [R]: wagnerrp: SAWEET... i got the example python fuse working
[02:31:26] wagnerrp: if the frontend is failing, and X is shutting down normally, youre looking at a few tens of seconds before you hit the limiter
[02:34:33] k-man: wagnerrp: do you use the rungetty thing for auto login?
[02:34:59] wagnerrp: actually, i just use the stock mingetty
[02:35:12] wagnerrp: not sure what the difference with rungetty is
[02:35:16] k-man: oh, but the same idea, auto login from inittab
[02:35:36] k-man: does standard mingetty have an auto login option?
[02:36:13] wagnerrp: c8:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty --autologin mythtv tty8
[02:37:33] k-man: wagnerrp: i seem to recall that many years ago, the standard getty program installed with debian did not have an auto login feature, hence people chose to use rungetty
[02:37:41] k-man: i suspect it might be a holderver from that
[02:39:20] wagnerrp: rungetty does seem to be debian specific
[02:40:20] k-man: well, i remember when i first installed mythtv encountering this problem and the default debian option could not auto login
[02:40:30] k-man: that would have been at least 5 years ago i think

[02:42:35] wagnerrp: im using mingetty for autologin, as per the line pasted above
[02:43:15] k-man: is mingetty the standard in debian these days?
[02:43:50] wagnerrp: mingetty is one of the aged gettys from the mid '90s
[02:44:25] wagnerrp: my man page is dated Apr '96
[02:44:31] wagnerrp: oddly enough, it seems to come from debian
[02:44:39] sphery: Hmm. I use agetty, and I'm pretyt sure it's got no autologin
[02:45:10] wagnerrp: yeah, all of my login shells are agetty
[02:46:01] sphery: are you sure the autologin isn't a distro-applied patch?

[02:48:43] wagnerrp: ok, dated to 2003
[02:48:52] sphery: so it's an additional patch--even if it's distributed with the package
[02:49:52] wagnerrp: nope, it exists in the code
[02:50:06] wagnerrp: not sure why the patch is distributed

[02:53:00] k-man: sphery: wow! that's cool

[02:54:29] wagnerrp: oohhhhh yeahhhhhh!
[02:55:57] sphery: ooh, forgot mgetty

[02:59:23] wagnerrp: 2003
[02:59:33] sphery: getty and agetty both support -l login_program, mingetty has --loginprog
[02:59:44] sphery: vgetty seems to be voice command stuff... weird
[03:00:03] sphery: mgetty seems to be very closely tied to Hayes modems--don't know if it works with consoles
[03:00:20] sphery: hadn't looked at qingy, yet
[03:01:00] sphery: heh, "DirectFB to provide a fast, nice GUI without the overhead of the X Windows System"
[03:01:35] sphery: looks like it supports autologin, though
[03:01:43] k-man: hayes modems – now there is a blast from the past
[03:01:44] wagnerrp: score
[03:01:56] k-man: good old AT codes
[03:02:18] sphery: so the patch in mingetty distribution doesn't apply to current mingetty
[03:02:34] wagnerrp: appears not, no
[03:02:37] sphery: so I think the autologin /is/ in there--like you said--but has been modified since 0.9.4
[03:03:37] sphery: is agetty in util-linux?
[03:04:48] sphery: yep
[03:06:28] Elshar: Hey, I've got a large collection of videos I use with mediatomb. I'd like to get a second box setup to use mythtv. Is it possible to just tell myth to use the first server as a file store and have it pull up my old videos?
[03:06:52] wagnerrp: the first file server is running mythbackend?
[03:07:00] Elshar: No
[03:07:12] wagnerrp: is anything running mythtv?
[03:07:34] Elshar: I do have a samba share setup so I can manage the files over the network though.
[03:07:43] Elshar: Well, the new machine would have front/backend installed on it.
[03:08:22] wagnerrp: for a single machine, network shares are doable
[03:08:27] wagnerrp: see MythVideo
[03:09:10] wagnerrp: for multiple machines running mythtv, you will want to have the videos on a single machine running mythbackend, and add the video paths to the Videos storage group
[03:09:36] wagnerrp: any frontends linked into that backend will have access to that content through myth's own network protocol
[03:09:43] wagnerrp: no network shares necessary
[03:09:56] Elshar: I could do that, I suppose. the file server is just fbsd 8, and the new box is installing mythbuntu :)

[03:41:44] wagnerrp: works fine here on 2.6.35.5
[03:52:21] FunkyELF: wagnerrp, you on Gentoo?
[03:53:52] FunkyELF: what packages do I need to install? What package has the program to change channels? When I try to emerge ivtv it says I need to use a different kernel or driver
[03:56:19] wagnerrp: i use mythtv to change channels
[03:57:23] FunkyELF: wagnerrp, what hauppauge card you got?
[03:57:29] wagnerrp: 150
[03:58:07] Beirdo: kormoc: you around?
[03:58:19] kormoc: yes
[03:58:37] kormoc: FunkyELF, ivtv is in the kernel itself now, so just setup your kernel with ivtv and install ivtv-utils
[03:58:41] Beirdo: gbee complained earlier about a foreign key constraint in the mytheather schema
[03:58:50] Beirdo: http://mythtv.pastebin.ca/1965103
[03:59:03] wagnerrp: or dont install ivtv-utils, you dont need it for mythtv
[03:59:19] Beirdo: currently, it's set to ON DELETE RESTRICT, and he wants ON DELETE CASCADE
[03:59:37] Beirdo: sound reasonable?
[03:59:42] FunkyELF: hmm, ivtv-utils pulls in sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.27-r2??
[04:00:09] wagnerrp: sounds like youre trying to install an old version of ivtv-utils
[04:00:12] wagnerrp: 1.3.0?
[04:00:32] kormoc: Beirdo, from a quick glance, aye
[04:00:47] kormoc: but that's a bit... convoluted key define there
[04:01:14] Beirdo: yeah, I don't get why it was done quite that way
[04:02:13] wagnerrp: FunkyELF: yeah, 1.3.0 was back from when ivtv still had a userspace component
[04:02:24] wagnerrp: with 1.4.0, ivtv is entirely in the kernel
[04:02:31] wagnerrp: and the userspace component is optional
[04:02:43] FunkyELF: this is what I get when I try to emerge ivtv-utils http://pastebin.ca/1965454
[04:04:03] wagnerrp: unmask and install 1.4.0, or... dont
[04:04:05] kormoc: FunkyELF, as wagnerrp just said, that's too old of a version...
[04:04:08] wagnerrp: you dont need it to use mythtv
[04:04:42] FunkyELF: okay... but how do I test my card is working? I see no /dev/videox
[04:04:59] wagnerrp: then your card isnt working, because your kernel is not configured properly
[04:05:15] FunkyELF: I had an old working MythTv box, then it stopped booting up. Rather than try to resurect an old P4 system, I built a new one. I'm just not sure if the card is working or not
[04:05:30] k-man: do you guys run lirc from debian? or compiled from source?
[04:06:24] FunkyELF: hmm.... under device->multimedia->video capture I have the two Conexant drivers selected as modules.
[04:07:00] wagnerrp: which two would those be? conexant makes dozens of different chipsets
[04:07:02] kormoc: did you load the modules? What did dmesg say?
[04:09:32] FunkyELF: Conexant 2388x (bt878 successor) support
[04:09:38] FunkyELF: Conexant cx23416/cx23415 MPEG encoder/decoder support
[04:09:49] FunkyELF: those were the two. I got them loaded using modprobe

[04:45:45] wagnerrp: everything should be shimmering

[04:47:17] totalanni is now known as _totalann
[04:49:17] Beirdo: kormoc: so, I tried adding a new constraint, and now my dang table has two constraints on the same foreign key, one with delete cascade, update cascade, and one with just update cascade
[04:49:20] sphery: wagnerrp: heh
[04:49:21] Beirdo: heh
[04:50:04] Beirdo: and to delete the foreign key constraints, you need to show create table to find the unique constraint name
[04:50:32] Beirdo: which is hardly an easy thing to do in dbcheck.cpp the way it's setup

[04:52:47] kormoc: we do everywhere else we do index changes
[04:53:09] Beirdo: where else do we do constraints changes?
[04:53:29] Beirdo: I'm not talking the index name, you have to delete it by the constraint name
[04:53:42] Beirdo: or so says the docs :)
[04:54:31] Beirdo: and mysql may potentially assign those differently between versions, etc
[05:04:04] kormoc: constraint name/index name
[05:04:06] kormoc: same concept
[05:04:14] kormoc: and no, it really shouldn't
[05:06:59] Beirdo: sorry, no, you have to use the constraint name
[05:07:00] Beirdo: heh
[05:07:19] Beirdo: at least in 5.1.41
[05:08:23] kormoc: yes
[05:08:26] kormoc: which is just a name
[05:08:29] kormoc: like the index, it's named
[05:08:45] kormoc: and if you don't give it one, it auto generates one based on rules that haven't changed
[05:08:46] Beirdo: which, as we didn't set it, we need to depend on defaults
[05:08:50] kormoc: ...
[05:08:51] Beirdo: K
[05:09:14] Beirdo: I'm just worried that somehow I'd blow away the wrong constraint
[05:09:37] kormoc: so create a new table as you want, migrate the data over and rename and drop the old one
[05:10:20] Beirdo: I think as it's only weather... :) I'll risk it
[05:12:43] Beirdo: not sure why he bothered in the first place, it's not like a join on those tables would ever be that bad
[05:13:08] Beirdo: and manually cleaning up on delete is just oh, so hard

[06:38:27] smmagic: Starting to think this webclient has got some of the voodoo
[06:38:32] rileyp: well that method worked great for me numerous timesand I honestly thought that my problems with myth starting slower and live tv crashing coincided with a synaptic update but Im not really sure
[06:38:45] smmagic: oh right, its me failing to use an unfamiliar client
[06:38:48] kormoc: smmagic, http://www.mythtv.org/support/ <-- there's our mailing lists
[06:38:50] smmagic: it was the notice I got when I joined
[06:38:54] smmagic: sorry
[06:39:00] kormoc: smmagic, what client?
[06:39:02] sphery: rileyp: otherwise, simply performing a full restore of the original database and letting mythtv upgrade it to the current version will a) work properly, and b) leave far less room for breaking things
[06:39:06] rileyp: sphery I have kept machine name etc all the same
[06:39:16] smmagic: that standard phillip de tourney webchat-thingy D:
[06:39:18] sphery: rileyp: excellent, then a full restore will "just work"
[06:39:25] smmagic: but it was a notice I received
[06:39:33] kormoc: smmagic, it's not one we setup
[06:40:00] rileyp: so I do a backup of my existing system and then a restore ?
[06:40:01] sphery: rileyp: also, I /highly/ recommend you upgrade your mythbuntu to current 0.23-fixes using http://www.mythbuntu.org/auto-builds (make sure you select 0.23, and not 0.24/trunk/development/unstable)
[06:40:03] smmagic: its all good, my failure to use webchat
[06:40:05] wagnerrp: kormoc: my server was down last week for a couple hours, and i was using the java client

[06:43:00] sphery: [R]: sidebars = pillars in a pillar-boxed video?
[06:43:07] [R]: sphery: yes
[06:43:20] sphery: [R]: that's just plain obnoxious
[06:43:28] [R]: sphery: CONAN in big gray letters
[06:43:37] [R]: DARK gray
[06:43:39] rileyp: My BE might be on 0.23 is this possible?
[06:43:50] [R]: not like the light gray they usually use on FOX
[06:43:52] sphery: [R]: we need a Readability ( http://lab.arc90.com/experiments/readability/ ) for those shows
[06:44:16] [R]: sphery: ?
[06:44:40] smmagic: ah k, well anyway, I've been looking at possible usb dvb-t tv tuners and was wondering if http://tinyurl.com/2d3t5cp would be suitable to use with myth, my friend also mentioned something about a CI module for encrypted channels but I'm not sure if its important since I live in australia?
[06:44:46] sphery: rileyp: generally 0.xx versions will work well enough together, but there are some qualifications
[06:45:01] sphery: rileyp: in the case of 0.23, there exist a 0.23 and 0.23.1, which are non-compatible
[06:45:13] Mode for #mythtv-users by ChanServ!ChanServ@services. : +o xris
[06:45:25] [R]: smmagic: the linuxtv website has all the devices that owrk in linux
[06:45:34] Mode for #mythtv-users by ChanServ!ChanServ@services. : +o xris
[06:45:52] smmagic: ok, is the CI module working under linux imporant for me?
[06:45:55] sphery: rileyp: so a 0.23 system should work with 0.23-fixes up through the point that 0.23.1 (the non-compatible change) was incorporated, and 0.23.1 will work with 0.23-fixes from the point of the 0.23.1 change
[06:46:00] [R]: smmagic: do you have a CAM?
[06:46:12] smmagic: CAM? like a camera? o_o
[06:46:19] wagnerrp: conditional access module
[06:46:21] sphery: rileyp: though, your best bet is to use the same branch, version, and revision on all systems--and that's the only "supported" configuration
[06:46:23] [R]: than no you dont, and CI isn't imp-ortant
[06:46:30] wagnerrp: its a PCMCIA-looking card that you slot into your tuner card
[06:46:32] smmagic: I hope I don't :x
[06:46:45] wagnerrp: decrypts content and passes it unencrypted to mythtv
[06:46:49] [R]: wagnerrp: s/slot/slide/... that's what she said
[06:46:59] smmagic: well to be honest this is the first time I've ever looked into TV on a pc system
[06:47:03] sphery: [R]: the point of Readability is to redraw the page--after first load--without all the distracting layout/ads/... to improve its, er, Readability
[06:47:12] rileyp: wagnerp what is a dummy tuner and how did I get one?

[06:47:19] wagnerrp: not sure
[06:47:23] sphery: [R]: so we need something to block out the distracting layout/ads/... on those TBS shows
[06:47:28] sphery: with the ads on the side
[06:47:37] kormoc: iamlindoro, you around?
[06:47:47] rileyp: sphery Im make sure my BE is on 0.23 fixes and do a full backup and restore as per your link above
[06:47:48] sphery: rileyp: you got it from the approach you used to restore your database
[06:48:15] sphery: rileyp: the full restore should get you much closer to a working system
[06:48:20] sphery: assuming your previous system worked
[06:48:29] rileyp: yes it did
[06:48:46] sphery: rileyp: and it needs to be a full backup of the previous system's database--not the one on your current system that's not properly configured
[06:48:57] sphery: i.e. the old, not upgraded system's backend
[06:49:37] rileyp: oh ok not sure if I still have it ....maybe
[06:50:34] sphery: rileyp: if you don't, you're going to have to reconfigure everything as if you're starting over
[06:50:43] sphery: not to mention unconfiguring all the broken config that's in there
[06:50:48] [R]: how odd
[06:50:48] rileyp: Could I not just start a new db complete and dump in the recordings.sql and

[06:50:57] smmagic: sorry about that
[06:50:58] rileyp: I know id have to redo my tuners etc
[06:51:00] sphery: no, that's what you attempted to do
[06:51:05] sphery: and that's what broke things
[06:51:12] smmagic: Accidently moved tab away, couldn't reconnect, so gave up and came onto desktop
[06:51:15] sphery: no, reconfigure everything means your entire system
[06:51:18] sphery: all backends
[06:51:19] sphery: all frontends
[06:51:24] sphery: all settings for all backends and frontends
[06:51:37] sphery: all video sources, capture cards, input connections, channels

[06:52:36] wagnerrp: you are planning on recording DVB-T?
[06:52:50] smmagic: me? yes
[06:52:50] sphery: i.e. the approach that web page says to use is throwing away the baby, the bathwater, the bathtub, the water-processing plant, the lake from which the water-processing plant draws water, the aquifir that feeds the lake, the clouds that make the rain,
[06:53:04] wagnerrp: are your local broadcasters using encryption?
[06:53:18] sphery: it is a "let's make things hard with no possibility of benefit"
[06:53:33] sphery: Joe Garelli, save us!
[06:53:38] smmagic: I can't say wagnerrp, Ill google it I suppose
[06:54:02] wagnerrp: ive not heard of australian broadcasters doing so
[06:54:07] sphery: rileyp: if you have to start your database over, you should keep your recordings by dumping them into MythVideo
[06:54:37] smmagic: I'd hope not, but I'm not quite sure what to search for
[06:54:39] sphery: rileyp: the best bet is to find the original full backup of your database
[06:54:49] wagnerrp: smmagic: do you have a digital tv?
[06:54:56] smmagic: Digital/HD yes
[06:55:08] wagnerrp: and your tv can pick up the local broadcasters?
[06:55:14] smmagic: everyone yes
[06:55:19] ** sphery wonders why mythtv users think that MythTV doesn't clean up after itself in the database **
[06:55:38] [R]: myth is a naughty little girl

[06:55:42] [R]: :P
[06:55:45] wagnerrp: then considering you dont know what a CI card is, you obviously dont have one in your tv, and a tuner card should have all the capabilities of your tv
[06:55:49] Beirdo: hehe
[06:56:19] smmagic: alright sweet, is there any usb dongle you reccommend/have tested for yourself?

[07:08:53] sphery: you'll want the actual videos in mythvideo directories/Videos Storage Group directories
[07:09:26] rileyp: sphery, My old db is from 3 months ago or more so only a few of the recordings will be from the old system. since the upgrade Ive added new tv cahnnel added channel icons and mrecorded about a gig of tv which will all only be in my current operational but sluggish db
[07:10:04] rileyp: Yes ok so I run mythlink to create names for them and put them in the video folder
[07:10:14] sphery: so you've been running this setup for a few months?
[07:10:25] sphery: if so, you should probably just stick with it
[07:10:58] sphery: for slowness, you should probably try upgrading to current 0.23-fixes with auto-builds
[07:10:59] rileyp: I have reacordings dating back to march this year
[07:11:21] sphery: oh, a gig
[07:11:26] sphery: how many recordings is that?

[07:28:52] sphery: when there's no transferring or migration involved
[07:28:59] sphery: since it's the same system

Sheesh. So I emailed him back very politely explaining how it all works.. just had a reply. Now he's even more pissed lol
[07:29:57] sphery: maybe I should make a very short, sweet page on the wiki called "Transfer MythTV Recordings" and/or "Migrate MythTV Recordings" and just say, full backup, same hostname, same IP address

[07:48:20] sphery: yep
[07:48:29] sphery: we'd have to store both chanid and callsign

[18:24:12] sphery: sounds like a windows thing...
[18:24:25] sphery: probably not this one: http://www.metvchicago.com/
[18:24:40] Baylink: Hey, sphery. That 23-fixes upgrade I did may not have been enough. Even after yanking /dev/video0 out of the setup (the one which was showing up in the crash log messages), it's *still* died at least once, she tells me. I'll see later today.
[18:24:49] Baylink: It is a lot better, though.
[18:25:11] sphery: yeah, if it's what I think, the problem isn't mythtv
[18:25:17] kormoc: sphery, I was looking at https://code.launchpad.net/me-tv
[18:25:18] Baylink: No, I knew that...
[18:25:23] sphery: it's the low-level stuff--V4L subsystem, drivers, kernel
[18:25:26] Baylink: I just gathered the workaround was Good Enough
[18:25:41] Baylink: Any idea how far back i gotta downgrade the kernel? That's a bitch in RPM, but I'll try
[18:25:42] sphery: the upgraded version just keeps hammering on the device for 20 retries/10sec before giving up
[18:25:51] sphery: I don't know
[18:26:06] sphery: I"m using 2.6.31.6 successfully
[18:26:16] Baylink: I'll hunt for a 2.6.31 then. Thanks.
[18:26:17] sphery: though I wouldn't necessarily /recommend/ that kernel version
[18:26:20] Baylink: Heh
[18:26:26] sphery: I think *buntu has 2.6.32
[18:26:43] Baylink: That's working ok too, then?
[18:26:55] sphery: current is 2.6.35.7 with 2.6.38-rc8 in testing

[18:27:37] sphery: if you can identify a kernel version that works, it would make it easier to identify what's changed
[18:27:42] sphery: and if it was intended or a bug
[18:27:55] sphery: you said you're running Suse
[18:28:07] sphery: what kernel do you have now?
[18:28:41] Baylink: 2.6.34.7, I believe. Lemme scrool

[18:42:06] wagnerrp: 'man route'
[18:42:41] jams: when in doubt yast
[18:42:42] justinh: seems to be that somehow people have found out I 'know' linux. and linux = linux = linux right? ;-)
[18:42:54] kormoc: wagnerrp, that's not acceptable in the work place, you can't hint at a coworkers sexuality
[18:46:25] wagnerrp: i wonder how intensive the opengl painter would be on MESA if we could disable the fading
[18:46:56] justinh: intel, you mean?
[18:47:13] wagnerrp: im talking as far as beirdo's comment
[18:47:24] kormoc: justinh, intel's still hardware accelerated
[18:47:35] wagnerrp: VNC/xrdp/vmware/virtualbox/...
[18:47:36] justinh: barely, it seems
[18:47:39] kormoc: wagnerrp, I wouldn't mind disabling the fade period. It's why I use the QT painter
[18:47:51] kormoc: justinh, you'd be surprised. Force mesa sometime...
[18:48:14] justinh: menu fades seem quite jerky sometimes on my c2d frontend
[18:48:17] wagnerrp: either give an option to disable the fade, and any additional animations that we may add in the future
[18:48:31] wagnerrp: or do some basic opengl performance test, and if it fails, kill them off
[18:48:33] justinh: wagnerrp: that should be pretty straightforward
[18:48:49] Beirdo: wagnerrp: now you're making sense
[18:49:07] Beirdo: scaling eye-candy to available performance works for me :)
[18:49:08] kormoc: wagnerrp, I'm a 9400M and I'd like them off :P
[18:49:12] justinh: those are all determined by the state of the uipainter setting anyway

[18:49:49] wagnerrp: :P
[18:50:06] kormoc: my biggest issue with the fade is we don't build the new page until after it's done
[18:50:22] kormoc: so going to recordings takes 4 seconds or so after the fade is done to be usable
[18:50:38] kormoc: so the fade just adds unusable time, which I like to keep low
[18:50:51] kormoc: if it was pre-building so it faded into a working screen, I wouldn't mind it
[18:50:52] justinh: it's either that or wait 4 secs for the next screen to be built
[18:51:36] kormoc: it still feels rough

[18:53:13] wagnerrp: sid3windr: picopsu is nice and all, but any power savings are negated when you connect it to a power brick
[18:53:15] sid3windr: instant bedroom warming
[18:53:38] sid3windr: I'm more in it for the fanlessness
[18:53:43] kormoc: meh

[18:54:27] marc-us-tx: sid3windr: Nice. Which atom board? Ion GPU or intel?
[18:54:30] sid3windr: I also like the bios is done in a second

[18:55:03] Baylink: justinh: It's in /etc/sysconfig, which they inherited from RH

[18:55:06] marc-us-tx: sid3windr: Is it the single core version?

[18:55:10] sid3windr: marc-us-tx: yes
[18:55:36] marc-us-tx: Ah... My Zotac was dual core with fan but I think I did not need the extra core for watching shows.
[18:55:45] justinh: Baylink: it had to be somewhere in /etc .. I respond better to questions which aren't typed out to me onscreen while they yack on the phone
[18:55:53] sid3windr: yes – should be plenty for myth I think/hope
[18:55:57] wagnerrp: marc-us-tx: cant really use the extra core for watching shows
[18:56:00] sid3windr: singlecore version was a lot cheaper
[18:56:02] wagnerrp: it just sits there doing nothing
[18:56:04] sid3windr: got it for 70 eur
[18:56:06] marc-us-tx: Was, I mean.. still is... I just moved it to the living room.
[18:56:15] marc-us-tx: Perhaps I should make it doe something.
[18:56:29] marc-us-tx: perhaps help with comercial flagging
[18:56:31] kormoc: wagnerrp, but but but, what about the commflag jobs and the databases?
[18:56:36] sid3windr: I'd like to find an atx atom board
[18:56:42] sid3windr: saw one announced but never saw it sold
[18:56:44] Beirdo: why?
[18:56:44] kormoc: oh lordy
[18:56:53] kormoc: marc-us-tx, it's useless for commflagging
[18:56:53] wagnerrp: well for that matter, neither cores really help with the commflag jobs and databases
[18:56:57] marc-us-tx: kormoc: It's a frontend only
[18:57:04] marc-us-tx: Oh... nice to know
[18:57:08] sphery: marc-us-tx: get a real computer that has some headroom
[18:57:17] ** sphery hates Atom with a passion **
[18:57:17] wagnerrp: not enough power to be of any use
[18:57:32] marc-us-tx: Not for a front end sphery
[18:57:35] wagnerrp: ATSC commflagging will likely run at half speed or less
[18:57:40] kormoc: marc-us-tx, yes
[18:57:52] Beirdo: sphery: you irrationally hate em :) But that's OK :)
[18:58:01] kormoc: marc-us-tx, my mini costs maybe a penny more an hour to run, plus has the headroom to be useful for everything
[18:58:02] sid3windr: my backend is a E4400 / C2D 2GHz
[18:58:28] marc-us-tx: kormoc: Mini? as in mac mini?
[18:58:34] kormoc: sphery, it's time to pull the atom link of doom
[18:58:36] kormoc: marc-us-tx, yes
[18:58:37] wagnerrp: Beirdo: its very rational, Atoms cant put out efficient BOINC work units
[18:58:45] Beirdo: hahaha
[18:58:50] Beirdo: good point
[18:58:56] marc-us-tx: Enough of the atom splitting

[18:59:43] marc-us-tx: Well, no point in not using them.
[18:59:57] sphery: marc-us-tx: yeah there is
[19:00:18] sphery: because you have an artificially-constrained CPU with no headroom and you get the same power usage as you can get with a real CPU
[19:00:30] sphery: old articles: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/25w-performance-pc,2551.html + http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/intel-e7200-g31,2039.html + http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/intel-ato . . . cy,2069.html

[19:01:17] kormoc: marc-us-tx, just wait until you hit something the nvidia driver can't play
[19:01:37] kormoc: marc-us-tx, I have plenty of material that's not GPU accelerated and am glad I have the cpu power to play it
[19:01:42] justinh: and nothing.. I repeat NOTHING will help you play Super HDTV. Muhahahahaha
[19:01:56] marc-us-tx: 4K video
[19:02:17] kormoc: justinh, I have a Beauwolf cluster!
[19:02:27] marc-us-tx: what do mac mini's cost these days?
[19:02:34] sphery: justinh: and if I don't count the power used by the external USB video decoder and the power used by the Quad-core i7 I'm using to run a Windows VM to run PlayOn to (in violation of the ToS) stream the Hulu video to my Atom frontend in a format it can play, then I'm saving a /ton/ of power--at least 5W
[19:02:35] justinh: they went up again
[19:02:40] wagnerrp: justinh: if you actually wrote some good GPU-optimized or SPE-optimized decoder, you could probably pull off SHDTV
[19:02:59] marc-us-tx: and that amount now is?
[19:03:00] sphery: kormoc: Beowulf cluster? with animated Angelina Jolie?
[19:03:00] kormoc: marc-us-tx, I spent $700, which is just slightly less then a same feature ion
[19:03:06] kormoc: sphery, oh, you know it
[19:03:09] marc-us-tx: WHAT?
[19:03:09] justinh: heh not what nvidia churn out you mean, wagnerrp ? ;-)
[19:03:47] wagnerrp: justinh: im talking about something actually written in shader language, not simply using the decoder ASIC built into the GPU
[19:03:47] kormoc: marc-us-tx, I want optical drives, ions with optical drives are barebones starting around $450, add ram and hard drive, it adds up
[19:03:57] justinh: aye entry level mac mini was just about what I'd call a nice price.. not now though
[19:03:59] marc-us-tx: Well, that's not in the same league of cheap as my cobbled ion systems
[19:04:04] wagnerrp: justinh: like the GPGPU video encoders
[19:04:09] justinh: ahhh
[19:04:11] kormoc: marc-us-tx, especially 4 gigs of low profile ram
[19:04:56] justinh: some video editing apps are using GPU acceleration now. CUDA, they reckon.. that's shaderish IIRC
[19:05:16] sphery: kormoc: have you ever hooked a kill-a-watt to your system to see where you're at for power usage while idling/playing video with vdpau, etc.
[19:05:17] marc-us-tx: I'm talking near 225 to 250 bucks.
[19:05:24] kormoc: sphery, nope

[19:05:37] kormoc: marc-us-tx, and no optical, not the same amount of ram
[19:05:40] justinh: marc-us-tx: yeah but nothing is as good looking as the new mac mini.. nor as small. twas ever thus
[19:05:57] kormoc: marc-us-tx, and my mini is my backend, frontend, database server, webserver, flash video streamer, etc
[19:06:00] justinh: I know you can hide ion boxes but you don't even wanna hide a mac mini IMHO
[19:06:12] kormoc: justinh++
[19:06:23] wagnerrp: justinh: id want to hide a mac mini
[19:06:24] justinh: and FWIW it's the only computer my wife has ever laid eyes on where she said WANT ONE
[19:06:32] marc-us-tx: Well, I can't see spending another 350 a pop for something which is not part of the viewing routine
[19:06:32] wagnerrp: some funky glossy box sitting in front of my tv
[19:06:39] wagnerrp: doesnt match anything else there
[19:06:43] sphery: but I hear that if I trade in my 10mpg SUV for a 20mpg truck, I'm getting a 100% improvement in mileage, which would be the same as if my sister trades in her 25mpg Camry for a 50mpg Civic
[19:06:48] justinh: wagnerrp: well there's always that
[19:07:11] kormoc: marc-us-tx, how many commflag jobs can you do? :)

[19:08:28] Criggie: I get 8–9 mpg :-\
[19:08:52] Criggie: mind you – the puishbike gets infinity mpg
[19:08:54] marc-us-tx: They are front ends to the backend which is a regular computer
[19:08:56] justinh: anyway where was I? hmmm
[19:09:09] sphery: Criggie: wow, my above joke-math aside, those first mpg increases are /way/ more beneficial than the end increases
[19:09:45] marc-us-tx: If it works for me, I don't see where I would be better off by turning them off and spending 1200 dollars to replace these frontends. Sorry, I'm sure it makes sense to someone but not me at the moment.
[19:10:24] wagnerrp: Criggie: when you consider the amount of energy it takes you to ride a bicycle, and the food you consume to do so, its the equivalent of maybe 100–150mpg
[19:10:36] wagnerrp: walking is closer to 40–50mpg
[19:10:38] Criggie: marc-us-tx: most TV is crap anyway

[19:13:14] wagnerrp: somewhat lower
[19:13:33] sphery: marc-us-tx: right, now that you have the Atoms, replacing them is definitely a high-cost option
[19:13:44] sphery: ideally, Intel wouldn't have marketed them in the first place
[19:13:45] wagnerrp: depends on the gait, really
[19:14:10] wagnerrp: a trained long distance runner is going to be a lot more efficient, obviously
[19:14:26] sphery: as there's absolutely no difference in requirements between a netbook processor (which Intel says should use Atom) and a laptop processor (which uses the Intel CULV processors, including Core 2 and Core i processors)
[19:14:53] sphery: wow, I need to get back out there and work on tuning my engine to get my mpg up, again

[19:15:33] iamlindoro: 100–200 calories per hour after the first hour
[19:15:52] iamlindoro: x 6.5–7 hours for a half ironman, 12–14 for a full ironman
[19:15:56] sphery: the most-powerful machine in my house is my frontend system
[19:16:21] wagnerrp: i had a friend on the swim team in high school, little 5ft nothing kid
[19:16:22] iamlindoro: wagnerrp: But even then I'm in serious deficit since I'm burning 4–800 per hour
[19:16:24] sphery: my backends are weak, in comparison (i.e. Athlon II X2 250 for mythfrontend and Athlon XP 2400+ for a remote backend)
[19:16:37] wagnerrp: would consume like 7kcal/day when training for a meet
[19:16:44] marc-us-tx: heck, I even use a less capeable popcorn hour A-100 in the kids room hitting sym-links from the mythtv database via samba. For me, it's working and I'm afraid to touch it!
[19:17:07] sphery: the only reason my master backend is more powerful (Athlon II X2 240) is because I burned up one of my Athlon XP systems and used the MBE hardware to replace it

[19:53:13] sphery: Elshar: the DVD ripping in MythTV has always been very basic
[19:53:23] wagnerrp: that capability has been removed in the upcoming release
[19:53:28] sphery: it's been removed because there are many better tools for the job
[19:53:37] sphery: and wagnerrp is faster than I am
[19:53:42] Elshar: Ah. In .24 will I still be able to just toss .iso/vobs at it?
[19:53:43] sphery: I type too slow
[19:53:59] wagnerrp: in 0.23, you can toss .iso/vobs at it
[19:53:59] sphery: Elshar: yes, you just have to get them using a different program
[19:54:00] Elshar: I normally use ripping software, but I was trying to think of a simple click-clicky interface for the wife :P
[19:54:35] sphery: how often does the wife go out and buy new dvd's that she needs to import immediately
[19:54:48] sphery: versus just playing from disc or waiting 'til you can rip them for her?
[19:55:11] Elshar: Well, if I have to do it, they 'accumulate' until she honeydo's me :P
[19:55:50] wagnerrp: sphery: you know of anything like anydvd for linux?
[19:56:53] Elshar: I've been using windows tools too. Do you guys know of something not terribly involved for linux? I've been reading up on dvdrip for linux. I'm mostly just wanting to pre-transocde dvds so the children don't destroy them :/
[19:57:41] sphery: wagnerrp: not really
[19:58:00] sphery: I don't use any DVD ripping programs
[19:58:08] sphery: I've heard good things about handbrake
[19:58:23] bjn: I haven't tried it myself but doesnt handbrake work on linux now? i've only tried it in osx but it was pretty nice
[19:58:37] wagnerrp: Elshar: here we go, vobcopy
[19:59:01] wagnerrp: pop the disk into the drive, run vobcopy, get a nice, unencrypted, concatenated vob
[19:59:16] wagnerrp: you can do with it as you please from there
[19:59:25] Elshar: Ah, very nice. thanks. :)
[19:59:26] sphery: someone posted: http://tuxarena.blogspot.com/2009/04/best-5-a . . . rip-and.html the other day
[20:00:17] wagnerrp: most people in here are going to say its better to just buy more hard drive space than bother recompressing
[20:00:29] sphery: +1 on more space
[20:01:45] wagnerrp: this mythicallibrarian guy has just gone completely mad
[20:01:54] Elshar: Oh hey, since you guys are around. I got my mythtv front/backened setup going last night, but I got about 2TB of movies on my fileserver. Can I just point mythtv to them and have it just automagically pick them up? Also, is it going to try to re-transcode them or something? It's taken awhile to convert my dvd collection, and I'm somewhat protective of it :P
[20:02:19] wagnerrp: mythvideo wont do anything to your existing collection
[20:02:27] wagnerrp: just tell it where it is, and scan for new content
[20:03:03] Elshar: Awesome. I hadn't done anything yet just in case. I was tenatively planning on copying some smaller stuff and seeing how it reacts. :)
[20:03:47] wagnerrp: he has somehow got it in his head that the python bindings are being developed by the entire dev team, and is the preferred interface for all purposes

[20:04:13] skd5aner: sphery – what's the deal with browse across channels?
[20:04:17] wagnerrp: and keeps trying to push it on the xbmc team with various 'helper' applications called from C++
[20:04:20] skd5aner: is that a trunk only thing?
[20:04:55] Elshar: I guess I got some more fiddling to do tonight, thanks again guys. I appreciate the help/input.
[20:04:55] skd5aner: I thought that setting has been there for a long time, which will allow you to channel up and down the full channel list correct?
[20:05:06] skd5aner: sphery: ^^
[20:05:20] skd5aner: sphery: if so, how does that "fix" the multirec livetv issue?
[20:05:37] robho (robho!~robert@c80-217-104-43.bredband.comhem.se) has left #mythtv-users ("Lämnar")
[20:06:21] wagnerrp: id love to see them get more use, but i just see them as being horribly misrepresented by this guy
[20:06:36] sphery: skd5aner: because you browse to a different channel, then you say change channel, and it goes
[20:06:44] sphery: skd5aner: just like the EPG allows you to switch channels
[20:06:49] skd5aner: that's never worked for me though
[20:06:50] sphery: it's supposed to work
[20:06:57] sphery: I have never said that it does
[20:07:02] skd5aner: oh, heh
[20:07:03] skd5aner: :)
[20:07:15] sphery: I think it did at one point
[20:07:18] skd5aner: " <sphery> that's supposed to work with browse across channels enabled"
[20:07:27] skd5aner: I guess the "supposed" is the key word then eh?
[20:07:30] sphery: yes :)
[20:07:43] sphery: I think it got broken, again, by changes
[20:07:50] skd5aner: I remember when that setting was enabled a few years ago, but I think that was even before multirec
[20:07:53] sphery: in all the refactors of channel changing and programinfo
[20:07:55] sphery: and tuning
[20:07:56] sphery: and ...
[20:08:07] skd5aner: fair enough – I think I misunderstood then
[20:08:28] sphery: and since it requires specific testing by users who a) use Live TV and b) use Browse all channels and c) have multiple sources and d) have multirec and ...
[20:08:48] sphery: anyway, just one more setting that should diea
[20:08:56] sphery: should just work if that's what everyone thinks should happen
[20:09:04] skd5aner: yea, really agree with that one
[20:09:21] skd5aner: why in the world would a user ever want to see only the channels that the current tuner could use
[20:09:37] skd5aner: that's ludicrous
[20:09:41] sphery: why in the world would a user ever want to use Live TV
[20:09:44] sphery: that's ludicrous
[20:09:49] sphery: :)
[20:11:18] jams: skd5aner- i find it very useful, as i have one tuner that only does the premimum or ppv chan. hbo/showtime/max etc
[20:12:00] skd5aner: because background noise is great sometimes and setting up a recording rule to extend for an entire day's worth of programming on a channel (think cable news) is kind of not worth the effort and you can't easily watch back-to-back programming without manual intervention
[20:12:28] skd5aner: jams: that, I suppose, is an interesting use case – but that's where channel groups or fav. channels might come in handy

[20:13:44] skd5aner: pretty much the rule at our house is if it's recorded someone wants to actually pay attention and watch it
[20:13:52] jams: yeah it would serve the same function. just saying it's not as ludicrous as you think =)

[20:14:59] skd5aner: true, I'm sure I'm not thinking of every use case – but probably a good example of a setting that can have a reasonable default to serve the 80/20 rule and be replaced with enhanced functionality for those who need "sets" of channels

[22:09:50] m4xx: my card doesnt pick up channels that my cable ready tv does, i think it should see them though
[22:10:03] m4xx: like spike, food channel, history channel
[22:11:11] m4xx: i have a wintv hvr 1600
[22:13:32] kormoc: Digital channels?
[22:19:00] m4xx: yes
[22:19:10] m4xx: i believe so
[22:19:16] kormoc: and your tv doesn't have a cable box?
[22:19:21] m4xx: no
[22:19:29] m4xx: it's a newer one

[22:19:38] kormoc: and no cable card?
[22:19:41] sphery: ~and you're using the digital side of the HVR-1600
[22:19:42] m4xx: nope
[22:19:49] m4xx: i believe so dvb?
[22:19:49] sphery: and not the analog side of the HVR-1600
[22:20:01] sphery: yeah, the "dvb" side
[22:20:11] m4xx: the other side only gave me like 4 channels
[22:20:28] sphery: and they were local broadcast networks?
[22:20:35] m4xx: didn't even look
[22:20:45] kormoc: I'm surprised that comcast would give you spike/food/history in the clear
[22:20:54] sphery: if so, that would have been a good indicator that you were most likely doing it right
[22:21:06] sphery: anyway, if you don't have all the channels, then chances re you need to rescan
[22:21:17] m4xx: i've rescanned and upped the timeout
[22:21:18] sphery: and, chances are, you need to upgrade to a newer version to scan properly
[22:21:25] m4xx: i've updated
[22:22:11] sphery: 0.23-fixes svn revision [26178] or higher
[22:22:21] m4xx: one sec let me check
[22:22:23] sphery: mythbackend --version to verify
[22:23:25] sphery: I highly recommend Delete all video sources then re-creating before the rescan to remove all the garbage from the bad scan
[22:25:06] sphery: also, AIUI (but I may be wrong) it may be possible that some of the channels are QAM256 and others are QAM64 and others QAM16 and ... so you may have to scan multiple times

[22:27:17] sphery: should be good from a scanner code standpoint
[22:27:25] sphery: so maybe just try scanning with other modulations
[22:27:55] m4xx: would i loose the channels i have set up already?
[22:28:00] m4xx: *lose
[22:28:26] sphery: if done properly, no
[22:28:36] sphery: that said, I don't know how to do properly
[22:28:44] sphery: I have a nice easy case

[23:14:29] iamlindoro: The plan is that as soon as the branch is made, freeze is off
[23:14:39] iamlindoro: But any fixes in the next week or two should be ported to .24

[23:39:35] ** wagnerrp wonders if that means the freeze is over **
[23:39:46] iamlindoro: it is for trunk
[23:39:49] iamlindoro: (IMO)
[23:41:18] kormoc: if he was a younger man, he would have taken a flamethrower to that branch!
[23:44:54] sphery: kormoc: he wanted to maintain his good karma, so he convinced trunk that his followers needed him
[23:47:14] Beirdo: Ummmm, no
[23:47:32] Beirdo: how is the freeze off, we have not released yet
[23:47:42] wagnerrp: but weve branched
[23:47:46] Beirdo: and?
[23:48:05] wagnerrp: and... new features wont affect the release
[23:48:15] kormoc: Beirdo, and so 0.24 exists on it's own, all alone in the branch's directory
[23:48:17] Beirdo: where are we cutting the release from? trunk or 0.24-fixes?
[23:48:22] kormoc: 0.24 fixes
[23:48:25] Beirdo: OK.
[23:48:28] kormoc: we've always done that
[23:48:32] Beirdo: never mind then
[23:48:52] Beirdo: "we've always done" means nothing as we are slowly changing processes, you know :)
[23:49:07] sphery: Usually though the freeze is technically off, we all wait a bit before putting in any changes that will make backporting fixes more difficult
[23:49:11] Beirdo: we are still doing...
[23:49:28] sphery: since all fixes have to be backported to 0.24-fixes until release
[23:49:33] Beirdo: yeah, we should be more busy making sure the release is done
[23:49:37] sphery: so keeping trunk and 0.24 similar is good
[23:49:45] wagnerrp: yeah, this are just some python tidbits that have been sitting on my hard drive
[23:49:49] Beirdo: in other words, we effectively rebranch at release

[23:51:15] sphery: python tidbits... just an appetizer, then?
