[00:09:47] CLGSHAFT: hey guys
[00:09:50] russell5: is there a way to copy channels from one source to another without rescanning?
[00:10:05] CLGSHAFT: i need help getting hdmi audio working on my geforce 430 gt
[00:11:16] wagnerrp: russell5: there should be no reason to copy channels from one source to another
[00:11:50] antgel: yes! there was a comment in hardware.conf that seems to be untrue – DEVICE="/dev/lirc0" works for me \o/
[00:11:52] trumee: is it possible to set up a cron job to refresh videos in MythVideo?
[00:12:24] wagnerrp: russell5: either you have digital channels, in which case you have no choice but to rescan to add them
[00:12:24] russell5: well i want my two digital tuners on my 2250 to have the same channel list but be able to record at the same time (so i put then in difirent input groups)
[00:12:37] antgel: now for this fricking VFD display / lcdproc
[00:12:53] wagnerrp: or you have analog channels, and you should be pulling a lineup from your schedules direct account
[00:13:05] wagnerrp: russell5: the 2250 does not have independent digital inputs
[00:13:18] wagnerrp: both tuners run off the same RF input
[00:13:31] wagnerrp: you cannot possibly be using two different sources on a single 2250
[00:14:11] trumee: wagnerrp: hey, you have written a script for that, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4oB28ksiIo
[00:14:13] trumee: oops
[00:14:18] trumee: wagnerrp: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Myth_video_scan.py
[00:14:25] russell5: so if they are pointing to the same input channels group they will be able to still record at the same time?
[00:14:48] trumee: that is very good youtube video if anybody cares to watch :)
[00:14:55] wagnerrp: input groups and video sources are two completely different things
[00:15:11] wagnerrp: input groups define two inputs that are mutually exclusive
[00:15:19] wagnerrp: meaning only one or the other can be used at a time
[00:15:37] wagnerrp: video sources are a named source containing a channel lineup and EPG grabber configuration
[00:15:51] wagnerrp: both inputs on your 2250 should be bound to the same video source
[00:15:59] russell5: ahhh ok i think i got it. so i can point more than one input group to the same source
[00:16:34] wagnerrp: input groups dont get bound to a source
[00:16:43] wagnerrp: card inputs get bound to a source
[00:16:52] ** antgel shudders at the thought of updating his freesat channels **
[00:16:52] wagnerrp: card inputs are optionally put into an input group
[00:17:04] russell5: ahhh ok
[00:17:12] russell5: thanks i get it now
[00:18:02] trumee: wagnerrp: thanks for that script.
[00:18:21] wagnerrp: the script doesnt do much, its all in the bindingsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
[00:18:25] wagnerrp: gah...
[00:19:53] trumee: wagnerrp: it does what i want to do, ie setup a cronjob :)
[00:20:21] J-e-f-f-A: wagnerrp: did you spill coke on your 's' key? ;-)
[00:20:49] wagnerrp: no, im using xpra over the network
[00:21:07] wagnerrp: if i press a key, and my wireless network drops
[00:21:16] wagnerrp: it never gets the signal to unpress the key
[00:21:28] Tomasu is now known as TyposuAway
[00:21:28] J-e-f-f-A: ah, doesn't see the 'key up' until the network returns... ;-)
[00:21:49] wagnerrp: and if ive already hit enter, the message automatically gets sent when then network returns
[00:21:54] antgel: okay, so here's the problem. i have /dev/lcd1, no /dev/lcd0. echo "Hello MythTV and good morning" > /dev/lcd1 does nothing on my display. where do i go from here?
[00:22:05] knightr: CLGSHAFT did you unmute it (in mcc I guess)?
[00:22:29] antgel: i get display port opened / display port closed in the syslog, i can google that
[00:22:53] trumee: wagnerrp: it is a bit slow compared to doing a scan in mythfrontend
[00:23:09] wagnerrp: ive found it to be about 1/3 the speed
[00:23:48] antgel: i do have options lirc_imon display_type=1 in modprobe.d/local.conf
[00:24:46] antgel: and options usbhid quirks=0x15c2:0x0038:0x0004 to avoid the device being picked up by usbhid driver
[00:24:55] antgel: let's just modprobe -r usbhid
[00:25:00] antgel: and see what happens
[00:25:33] wagnerrp: Captain_Murdoch: 76ab336a back in last january, you added the inuseprogram updates to FileTransfer::Seek
[00:25:47] wagnerrp: why do you have one at both the front and back of the function?
[00:25:59] antgel: hmm, VFD is now on /dev/lcd0 but echoing text still does nothing

[00:38:48] wagnerrp: ah... i wouldnt have thought there would be additional filesystems mounted in procfs
[00:39:35] clever: just need to add it to fstab and its back to the way it was:)
[00:41:45] antgel: clever: i *hope* that after debugging this sodding usb issue that i'll never have to look at it again ;)
[00:42:15] clever: i'm still fighting my usb ir receiver, it seems to work fine but mythfrontend half locks up 90% of the time i start video
[00:42:28] clever: the UI completely locks up but then video continues like nothing happened
[00:43:09] antgel: clever: mine worked fine with old (kernel|distro|mythtv|lirc|lcdproc) :/
[00:43:29] antgel: well, 15c2:0038 *is* using lirc_imon, so that's a positive
[00:43:40] antgel: so WTF won't the bastard display anything?
[00:47:45] antgel: ugh. on another matter, http://pastebin.ca/2034706. do we think this *could* be RAM or is it definitely the hard disk? because i've never been convinced by the RAM on either of my systems

[02:38:31] wagnerrp: having to rename your files means someone other than you named them in the first place
[02:39:51] wagnerrp: i really doubt this thing is going to be able to glean any information from 'VTS_05_01'
[02:39:59] Crys: I've a lot of tv series files that don't contain the title. The tool looks up metadata with thetvdb.
[02:40:14] CLGSHAFT (CLGSHAFT!~mythtv@68.68.38.16) has joined #mythtv-users
[02:40:26] wagnerrp: that is correct, nothing mythtv records contains the title
[02:40:38] wagnerrp: nor do shows that come on DVDs and blurays
[02:41:02] wagnerrp: nor do they have the kind of information this utility is looking for
[02:41:08] Crys: Well, there are other sources for tv series, too.
[02:41:35] wagnerrp: in other words, there are no legal uses for this tool
[02:41:44] wagnerrp: http://mythtv.org/wiki/IRC#Legally-Dubious_Content
[02:44:50] Crys: I wasn't referring to any sources mentioned in the wiki text. But I won't talk further about this topic since it may be legally dubious.
[02:48:15] wagnerrp: any source where you might have release groups names, release types, and such that would need renaming would fall under 'legally dubious' even if not explicitly mentioned

[02:51:18] wagnerrp: yeah
[02:51:37] wagnerrp: stoth's personal site is up, but that isnt much good since he doesnt host his drivers there
[02:52:14] knightr: I think he used to do it at the beginning but is no longer doing it...
[02:52:32] wagnerrp: looking for something in particular?

[02:56:37] Crys: wagnerrp: I respect the policy and I will not refer to any tools like filebot anymore. However I want to point out that tools like filebot are IMHO not as problematic as e.g. DVD and Bluray playback. But that's just my opinion.
[02:57:26] wagnerrp: filebot itself is not a problem, but its only of use on illegally obtained media
[02:58:18] knightr: thanks wagnerrp, happy holidays!
[02:58:30] wagnerrp: dvd and bluray playback are at least defended by the fact that the user purashed the content
[03:03:27] beercoder (beercoder!~stiffler@97-125-47-152.eugn.qwest.net) has quit (Remote host closed the connection)
[03:04:05] Crys: I agree, unfortunately some lawyers would tell you something differently. It's a shame that DVD and HD playback isn't legally sound on Linux.
[03:07:21] iamlindoro: Don't try to turn it around
[03:07:36] iamlindoro: We ahve Blu-ray and DVD playback because our EFF lawyers have determined it's acceptable
[03:08:05] iamlindoro: Playback of that content, including in the US, is protected under interoperability protections
[03:08:23] iamlindoro: whereas no such protection exists for downloading content, or as we prefer to call it around here, "theft."
[03:08:37] iamlindoro: Now that had better be the last I hear on this topic or people are going to start being escorted out

[03:18:51] Crys: iamlindoro: Understood. My final statement on the matter: I'm not endorsing any kind of illegal activities and I will not speak of any tool that might be seen as legally dubious by your U.S. laws. Can we go back to happy land again? :)
[03:19:02] Azelphur: I've downloaded movies when I had the DVD in my hand before (Is that legal?) because the DVD encryption drove me insane.
[03:19:29] iamlindoro: Azelphur, No, it's not legal. What part of "I'm going to start banning people if they go on with this garbage" was lost on you?
[03:19:29] Azelphur: I remember at one point, I set the download going and started working on getting the DVD to actually play, the download finished first.

[03:20:39] Azelphur: I like the way your jumping on me for one sentence which was a legal question, and then apologizing to you
[03:20:44] Azelphur: but sure whtaever
[03:21:03] iamlindoro: Good, now you know what to expect in the future
[03:21:17] iamlindoro: You're not an idiot, common sense will tell you that under no circumstances is downloading the movie legal
[03:21:49] iamlindoro: Just as you're not allowed to download a TV show if you could record it, or did record it, or anything else
[03:22:29] Azelphur: I don't see why your trying to open a discussion with me when you've made it clear that anything I say will result in a ban
[03:22:53] iamlindoro: And if none of you can see why we as a project need to take a hard line against piracy for our project survival, then *we don't want you*
[03:22:56] iamlindoro: I'm not trying
[03:23:06] iamlindoro: I don't expect a response-- in fact, I advise you not to respond
[03:23:21] iamlindoro: I do expect for you to listen, and understand that any further transgression, however minor, will result in a ban
[03:23:57] Captain_Murdoch: wagnerrp, I don't recall. I don't know of any explicit reason why the update has to be in both places. might have had to do with the potential locking inside ::Unpause(), but should be talking milliseconds, not minutes there, so I don't think that's the reason. If you're looking at it, you could eliminate the second one probably.

[03:29:36] Crys: iamlindoro: May I contact you in private?
[03:30:05] iamlindoro: There's nothing worth saying in private that can't be said in public, Crys
[03:30:22] iamlindoro: As channel ops and MythTV devs, our responsibility is to enforce the channel rules which protect our project
[03:30:44] iamlindoro: that means requiring that everyone live up to a standard of conduct, we're not all secretly wink wink nudge nudge about piracy
[03:34:27] Crys: I'm not going to argue against that. Why would I anyway? Everybody should understand the rules and the importance for a project like MythTV.
[03:36:03] iamlindoro: Then there's not much to speak about in private-- I'm not interested in belaboring the point every single time some user forces me to enforce the rules, I would much prefer to simply see everyone behave according to the rules of the channel
[03:37:23] iamlindoro: In fact, nothing compels me to action quicker than the implication that it's secretly okay, but we can't talk about it in public-- some of us are sincerely offended by piracy. Including me. If anything, it's *more* galling when people think that you can doublespeak around the channel rules.
[03:37:56] iamlindoro: I just happen to have to be alone on the night shift about it :P If stuartm were here, he'd likely be banning people already
[03:39:12] Crys: Have I violated the channel rules in any way? Did I imply that I endorse piracy in any way? I hope not.
[03:39:35] iamlindoro: In both wagnerrp and my opinion, yes, you did.
[03:40:04] iamlindoro: I do hope you won't force me to do a full post mortem with you when you yourself acknowledged the "legally dubious" nature of your sources of material

[03:42:06] wagnerrp: Captain_Murdoch: looking at it, the only thing i could see is that there were scenarios where it would exit out of the function early
[03:42:14] wagnerrp: so there was one in there early to ensure it got called
[03:42:52] Crys: I'm not an US citizen. I'm bound to a different set of laws. The source may be legally dubious according to US laws but the source isn't illegal here in Germany. On the other side (and AFAIK) DVD / Bluray playback on Linux is still not legally sound in Germany although it's tolerated.
[03:44:14] Crys: iamlindoro: I already learned the leason and I won't bring up the topic. I only want to make you understand that I don't endorse piracy.

[03:46:26] iamlindoro: Crys, I think you need to reread the channel rules
[03:46:51] iamlindoro: Crys, When in this channel, in terms of discussion, you *are* bound by our rules to behave as though US laws apply to you
[03:49:35] Beirdo: wagnerrp: let me dig up where the drivers are
[03:49:57] Captain_Murdoch: wagnerrp, I just looked over it again. so most are at the end instead of the beginning. seek appears that way because of the short-circuit returns inside ::Seek()
[03:50:32] wagnerrp: Captain_Murdoch: ok, just wondering
[03:50:43] wagnerrp: although with the short circuit returns, does it really need to be updated?
[03:51:48] wagnerrp: the only time it short circuits is if the buffer or read thread is offline
[03:52:02] wagnerrp: presumably because the file has been closed, the file transfer torn down
[03:52:11] wagnerrp: and the user is trying to pull off a dead socket
[03:52:39] Crys: iamlindoro: I reread the rules. Nothing says that I have to behave like I'm bound to US laws. Although the US centric development of MythTV implies it.
[03:52:48] Beirdo: wagnerrp: I got it from: http://kernellabs.com/hg/~stoth/saa7164-v4l
[03:53:07] wagnerrp: Beirdo: yeah... kernellabs is down
[03:53:07] Beirdo: now, it seems kernellabs.com is having issues today?
[03:53:16] wagnerrp: the last few days apparently
[03:53:21] iamlindoro: Crys, Last warning. This discussion is over, and any further attempt to push buttons or press your luck will result in a temporary ban

[04:03:59] Shadow__X: iamlindoro: thanks again for the help earlier. Keeping the old drive in as a failed spare worked out nicely. It repaired the array in just under 6 hours
[04:05:07] knightr: Beirdo, wagnerrp Thank you and Happy Holidays!
[04:05:29] Beirdo: no problemo :)

[15:35:08] trumee: Is it possibly to use MythNetvision to receive a remote webcam stream generated through vlc?
[15:35:45] trumee: At present i use Mythstream with 0.23.1 but it doesnt build with 0.24.
[15:36:04] wagnerrp: no, but i dont know why you would use either of those plugins with a webcam
[15:37:55] wagnerrp: if this is for security purposes, either set up VLC in such a manner that mythtv can record it using the IPTV recorder
[15:37:59] trumee: wagnerrp: For convenience in the living room.
[15:38:34] wagnerrp: or use zoneminder to record the webcam and mythzoneminder to video the surveillance logs in mythtv
[15:38:45] trumee: wagnerrp: It is mainly for video chatting (substitute for skype)
[15:39:18] wagnerrp: if this is for video chatting, still neither of those are right solution
[15:39:32] wagnerrp: get a SIP phone, add a menu entry for it in the menu xml
[15:39:38] trumee: wagnerrp: Mythstream works very at the moment.
[15:40:00] wagnerrp: but its one way, and in no way designed for that sort of use
[15:40:16] trumee: wagnerrp: Atm the voice comes through a hardware ATA and video through Mythstream
[15:41:27] trumee: wagnerrp: does MythNetvision requires streams in flv container?
[15:41:55] wagnerrp: no, but it is only for on-demand content
[15:41:59] wagnerrp: not live streams
[15:42:10] trumee: wagnerrp: ah, right.
[15:42:15] wagnerrp: well, it is intended for on-demand content
[15:42:30] wagnerrp: but once you open a webpage with a flash player, the flash player can really do whatever it pleases
[15:42:34] wagnerrp: including a live stream
[15:43:05] trumee: wagnerrp: that is interesting, i suppose i can always setup a webpage to include the live stream.
[15:43:29] wagnerrp: no, thats an awful way to do it
[15:44:12] trumee: wagnerrp: hmm. i dont see any other way (apart from getting stuck at 0.23.1 with Mythstream)
[15:44:23] wagnerrp: running SIP audio to an ATA and a hardline phone and independent video streaming is as hackish a way to do a video phone as ive ever seen
[15:44:49] wagnerrp: find a softphone with LIRC support, launch it from the mythtv menu xml, done
[15:45:35] trumee: wagnerrp: and how about the video?
[15:45:36] wagnerrp: and if you cant find one with lirc support, you can probably still do it with keyboard controls through irxevent
[15:45:41] wagnerrp: SIP does video
[15:45:48] wagnerrp: softphones do video
[15:46:31] trumee: wagnerrp: yes, i could use ekiga remotely to generate video.
[15:47:09] wagnerrp: yes, ekiga is a SIP-using softphone
[15:47:56] trumee: wagnerrp: atm, i autostart mythtv like this http://dev.gentoo.org/~cardoe/mythtv/autostart.html
[15:48:39] wagnerrp: no easier way to do it
[15:48:52] wagnerrp: (the autostart thing, than cardoe's method)
[15:49:10] trumee: wagnerrp: the window manager is evilwm, i am not sure if i start ekiga, what will happen to the window focus
[15:49:49] wagnerrp: if you have a window manager, the newly opened application will get focus, and mythtv will ignore any lirc activity until the newly opened application opened through the menu xml closes
[15:50:05] ** trumee uses this method to speak to his folks who know nothing about computers, except using a remote with mythtv. **
[15:51:00] wagnerrp: the easiest method from a usability standpoint would be to revive mythphone, a SIP plugin for mythtv
[15:51:07] wagnerrp: but ive got no idea how hard that would be to pull off
[15:51:19] wagnerrp: it hasnt been updated since 0.21, and never made the qt4 transition
[15:51:28] trumee: wagnerrp: did mythphone ever do video calls?
[15:51:55] wagnerrp: yes, mythphone hooked up to your local microphone, webcam, and whatever SIP service you wanted to do video calls
[15:52:42] trumee: wagnerrp: wow! that was quite nice. i only remember using audio with mythphone
[15:53:05] wagnerrp: my point is if youre doing video chat, it should be done by the same program
[15:53:24] wagnerrp: as opposed to having completely independent audio and video, with no means of synchronization between the two
[15:54:22] trumee: wagnerrp: yes that is true but the advantage of using Hardware ATA is that it can use G729 codec. I dont think ekiga/mythphone could do that.
[15:56:26] lautriv: where should i dig if mythweb shows a blank page ?
[16:01:38] wagnerrp: trumee: unless either endpoint is using early 90s dialup, not sure why that would be needed
[16:02:08] trumee: wagnerrp: point taken. How about echo cancellation?
[16:02:37] wagnerrp: usually implemented by the endpoints, and not anything to do with the codec
[16:03:11] trumee: wagnerrp: ok, what would take to resurrect mythphone. Cant it be compiled used qt3support?
[16:03:24] wagnerrp: on that, ive got no idea?
[16:05:10] wagnerrp: you will likely need to set up your own SIP server
[16:05:24] wagnerrp: as chances are whatever SIP provider you are using with that ATA doesnt support video
[16:05:38] trumee: wagnerrp: i am already running my own asterisk.
[16:05:47] wagnerrp: ah, well there you go, already done

[18:55:17] wagnerrp: BLZbubba: there is nothing streamed using the flash player than cannot be readily decoded in software even on an Atom
[18:55:21] clever: ive not gotten good cpu performance out of flash and fullscreen tends to cause more problems

[18:56:37] wagnerrp: BLZbubba: the adobe video decoders are perfectly fine
[18:56:46] wagnerrp: its the video /player/ that is complete garbage
[18:58:56] clever: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_e . . . =CUqNSrAid6E can run at full 1080 (not sure on the bitrate) if you click the button in the corner
[18:59:18] clever: good way to push things to the limit and see what happens
[18:59:38] clever: it appears to be stuck on one frame...
[18:59:46] wagnerrp: the problem is that the video player uses software scaling and colorspace conversion, so it can composite in its own overlays
[18:59:49] clever: and its not even pegging the cpu
[19:00:05] wagnerrp: that scaling is converstion is far more intensive than the decoding of any content available over flash
[19:00:10] clever: yeah that would cause problems
[19:00:33] wagnerrp: thats why mythfrontend doesnt even attempt to do so if you dont have a proper API available to do it for you
[19:00:43] clever: if i slip into /tmp, i can open it in mplayer and use vdpau to scale and decode it
[19:00:56] wagnerrp: opengl support for hardware accelerated decoding has been in flash for years
[19:01:06] wagnerrp: and has been available for use on any platform
[19:01:11] clever: and its so large of a resolution, that it has to downscale even at fullscreen
[19:01:14] wagnerrp: there is no reason why it cant be used
[19:01:54] clever: not sure how i would check if its in use
[19:02:22] clever: libflashplayer.so appears to contain libGL.so.1

[19:13:29] CLGSHAFT: anyone know why i would lose audio when chnaging channels with a 950q?
[19:14:15] wagnerrp: because youre using it with analog
[19:16:52] wagnerrp: we have a general dislike for framegrabbers around here
[19:17:05] wagnerrp: because of all such audio complications they tend to introduce
[19:17:43] CLGSHAFT: ok, but itworked before i updated my kernel
[19:18:45] wagnerrp: yes, and changing the kernel changed something about your ALSA setup, or maybe you got pulseaudio along with the upgrade that is causing complications, or maybe one of a dozen other things that could have happened which complicated audio capture
[19:19:21] CLGSHAFT: ok, pulseaudio is disabled
[19:19:29] wagnerrp: while mpeg encoders always work, because all audio capture, video capture, compression, multiplexing... its all done in the hardware and we get a nice mpeg2ts stream
[19:19:32] CLGSHAFT: what device do you reccomend for analog?
[19:19:46] wagnerrp: the PVR-150 is the inexpensive option
[19:19:52] wagnerrp: but you can only find it used
[19:19:54] CLGSHAFT: but hard to find
[19:20:02] wagnerrp: if you want new, an HVR-1600 or HVR-2250
[19:20:07] CLGSHAFT: that is a pci card?
[19:20:13] wagnerrp: theyre pretty readily available on ebay
[19:20:17] wagnerrp: the 1600 is PCI
[19:20:22] wagnerrp: the 2250 is PCIe
[19:20:28] CLGSHAFT: i have the 2250, it wlll not install with my kernel
[19:20:36] CLGSHAFT: i can get the digital side working
[19:20:39] wagnerrp: or if you want USB like your existing 950, then grab a 1950
[19:21:15] JEDIDIAH__: The 1212 is also an option for analog. Although it's targeted at HD content. It still does SD though. Spits it out in h264 to. Smaller files.

[19:35:06] iamlindoro: backend can't run without a tuner, uPnP can't run without setting video dir in the frontend
[19:35:25] wagnerrp: well upnp can still run and share out your recordings, but without a tuner, he wont have any of those
[19:35:41] iamlindoro: without a tuner, upnp won't run at all
[19:35:47] iamlindoro: since the backend won't
[19:35:50] wagnerrp: without a tuner, the backend closes anyway
[19:35:51] wagnerrp: right

[19:36:40] wagnerrp: yeah, you didnt complete mythbackend setup
[19:36:54] wagnerrp: you must add a tuner, add a video source, set up channels, set up recording storage, ....

[19:55:41] wagnerrp: http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/MythTV#Install . . . tage_package

[19:56:03] wagnerrp: should give you an idea of what else is available
[19:56:12] wagnerrp: however note that the plugins only exist on the frontend
[19:56:23] wagnerrp: so if you arent running the frontend, adding others wont really do anything
[19:56:42] mtrg: so I should keep the frontened running?
[19:56:48] wagnerrp: the only reason youre installing mythfrontend is because the upnp video sharing uses one shared database setting
[19:57:00] wagnerrp: s/mythfrontend/mythvideo/
[19:57:44] wagnerrp: VideoStartupDir is an old setting used in mythvideo prior to 0.22

[20:12:45] wagnerrp: BLZbubba: no, you can do relatively low bitrate 720x480 "HD" on hulu, scaled to 1920x1080
[20:13:09] wagnerrp: the decoding is trivial, scaling it to 1920x1080 is what kills your CPU
[20:13:10] BLZbubba: right but at greatly reduced frame rates
[20:13:24] BLZbubba: exactly, vdpau would help quite a bit
[20:13:33] wagnerrp: no, it wouldnt
[20:13:44] BLZbubba: a couple of coworkers here recently ditched myth for !#^# media center because hulu works better on windows
[20:14:01] wagnerrp: because decoding it is only a small portion of the load caused by playback
[20:14:21] wagnerrp: thats why the crystalhd stuff already added to flash is not the 'miracle cure'
[20:14:29] wagnerrp: all it does is offload decoding
[20:14:39] wagnerrp: but the majority of the load is caused by scaling
[20:14:54] BLZbubba: what do they use on the other platforms then, gl?

[20:16:50] BLZbubba: do they at least use XV? i'll bet not

[21:12:48] wagnerrp: uncompressed 1080i? probably not
[21:13:26] antgel: wagnerrp: fine. then i think my 0.22->0.24 saga is over, pending my parents finding any flaws
[21:13:37] antgel: but at least now i have remote access to ssh in
[21:13:51] wagnerrp: note that mythtv does not stream uncompressed video anywhere but to the video card
[21:14:11] wagnerrp: the most mythtv will ever see is ~5MB/s from bluray content
[21:14:30] antgel: wagnerrp: basically i have a BBC programme on my master backend. when watching it from a networked frontend it's very jerky
[21:14:33] wagnerrp: but the size of compressed video is not dependent on resolution
[21:15:14] antgel: thanks all for the help, even though i solved most issues by thinking out loud, in-channel
[21:15:21] antgel: happy new year to all, see you next year :)
[21:23:21] mtrg: downloading source code of mytthv
[21:23:32] antgel: ah, just one more issue
[21:23:35] mtrg: will do it manually — sight. Not sure if this is even worth it

[21:23:57] antgel: i set EventCmdLivetvStarted to sudo /usr/local/sbin/cpufast – it works on one FE but not the other – any tips on debugging?
[21:24:08] antgel: the sudo /usr/local/sbin/cpufast works by itself
[21:24:24] antgel: my master FE has no problem running the event
[21:24:39] wagnerrp: antgel: you set that on both frontends? system events are only set locally to each machine
[21:25:48] antgel: wagnerrp: indeed, it's set on both – verified in mythweb settings
[21:26:07] antgel: wagnerrp: actually, it worked like a charm on the master FE

[22:05:15] floppyears: hi guys, is there another program that I can use to check whether or not my hd ota tuners are working?

[22:05:32] floppyears: meaning is there another program I can use to watch tv and change the channels around?
[22:06:35] lautriv: antgel, you could "su – mythtv" and call it on cli to see what happens.
[22:06:59] antgel: lautriv: i did, as my user (one that runs frontend). it ran, no problem
[22:07:46] clever: antgel: did you edit sudoers?

[22:08:42] clever: antgel: does it give any errors when mythtv tries to do sudo /usr/local/sbin/cpufast?
[22:09:06] clever: mythtv ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/ionice
[22:09:18] antgel: and it's great that you guys are helping now, but i have to go to my friend's.  :( until tomorrow, when i will also be attempting to add new channels
[22:09:31] antgel: clever: will try on my return, but that syntax works on my master FE *shrug*
[22:09:45] clever: antgel: you could also give setuid root a try

[22:13:14] bindi: hey! is MythTV able to use multiple digituners?
[22:13:17] bindi: say I have 2 tuners, and I set it to record 2 different programs, from 2 different channels, at the same time.
[22:13:20] bindi: Would it use card 1 for program 1 and card 2 for program 2?

[22:25:18] russell5: not sure about all of them. i have a 2250 and the uses the two digital tuners well
[22:25:28] wagnerrp: bindi: as far as mythtv is concerned, cards with two tuners exist as two completely independent devices
[22:25:42] bindi: aha
[22:25:55] bindi: now do you guys happen to know if there are any dual dvb-c tuners? >.<
[22:25:55] wagnerrp: you can add as many as you need using multiple backends, until you start hitting practical limits of the scheduler
[22:26:07] wagnerrp: a few, not many
[22:26:10] wagnerrp: !url tuners
[22:26:10] MythLogBot: tuners: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hardwar . . . _Information
[22:26:39] wagnerrp: note that if you intend to record encrypted cable, you need tuner cards with CI slots

[22:31:39] wagnerrp: sadly, its not supported
[22:31:45] wagnerrp: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Anysee
[22:31:55] wagnerrp: erm... nevermind
[22:31:56] balor: Should the mysql on my master backend listen on it's public IP, if I want to use a frontend on a different client?
[22:31:58] wagnerrp: the K30 isnt supported
[22:32:20] wagnerrp: balor: if you want to use a remote frontend, the backend must be set to listen on a routable IP
[22:32:25] wagnerrp: that means something other than 127.0.0.1
[22:32:37] bindi: yeah i checked its supported
[22:32:51] balor: wagnerrp: But this means MySql on the public IP, not just some mythtv specific protocol?
[22:32:53] wagnerrp: bindi: yeah, i just saw the first thing marked '30' as not supported
[22:33:06] wagnerrp: balor: are your machines all on the public internet?
[22:33:27] wagnerrp: most people have their machine on a private intranet, with a NAT router

[22:33:44] balor: wagnerrp: It's private LAN
[22:33:55] wagnerrp: then its not on a public IP
[22:34:23] balor: ok, it's in the 10.* range
[22:34:42] wagnerrp: private IPs would be anything on the 10/8, 172.16/16, and 196.168/16 ranges
[22:35:22] wagnerrp: mythfrontend requires access to both mysql and your mythbackend over the network
[22:35:40] balor: thanks
[22:35:53] wagnerrp: if you are using a remote frontend, both of those must be listening on an ip other than localhost
[22:36:07] wagnerrp: beyond that, its up to you to ensure your network is secure
[22:36:15] wagnerrp: mysql has its own password authentication
[22:36:23] wagnerrp: but mythtv has no security what so ever
[22:36:50] clever: the UPNP in mythtv will also somewhat openly share the mysql name/pw
[22:36:56] tzanger (tzanger!~tzanger@gromit.mixdown.ca) has joined #mythtv-users
[22:37:11] tzanger: good evening everyone... I'm having just a touch of trouble specifying the audio ouptut device for a frontend
[22:37:12] wagnerrp: the UPNP server will just let people find it on the network
[22:37:37] wagnerrp: the XML server optionally allows you to query for the database username and password
[22:37:37] tzanger: mplayer works with -ao alsa:device=hw=1.7
[22:37:48] wagnerrp: if you pass a PIN check
[22:37:48] tzanger: so I'm thinking that the setting in the frontend settings should be hw:1,7
[22:38:02] wagnerrp: but since you can just query the same XML server for the pin itself

[22:38:28] wagnerrp: its not intended as a security measure, so much as allowing multiple backends to operate independently on the same broadcast segment
[22:38:34] clever: and the pin isnt too long, enless it has throttling limits you can probly brute force it anyways

[22:42:06] awalls: If auth material (the PIN) goes plaintext over the wire, then one really needs to use IPSec (if one cares that much)
[22:42:08] wagnerrp: not secure in any sense of the term
[22:42:32] kormoc_afk is now known as kormoc
[22:42:40] clever: in the past, ive run a whole frontend over a VPN (mysql and mythtv protocols)
[22:42:47] wagnerrp: awalls: its not intended as security, but merely to allow you to filter out UPNP broadcasts from multiple independent mythtv systems on the network
[22:42:48] clever: it lagged like hell
[22:43:01] wagnerrp: so for instance on a campus network, you have multiple people running backends
[22:43:05] awalls: wagnerrp: understood.
[22:43:15] wagnerrp: you dont want your frontend automatically connecting to the guy's backend down the hall
[22:43:36] clever: and upgrading his database
[22:43:39] awalls: Depends on what they guy down the hall has recorded. ;)
[22:43:41] wagnerrp: ... of course you wouldnt want to run on such a secure system anyway
[22:43:48] wagnerrp: s/secure/insecure/
[22:44:07] wagnerrp: considering that guy down the hall could connect to yours and delete all your contents
[22:44:12] clever: id bring my own router and create a private subnet
[22:44:35] clever: ive done it at hotels before, in one case the hotel charged per mac per day
[22:44:44] clever: so 2 computers on the socket cost you double

[22:53:48] wagnerrp: cable or antenna?
[22:53:51] bindi: cable
[22:53:57] psycodad: bindi depends on signal strength
[22:54:06] wagnerrp: cable, probably not
[22:54:09] psycodad: i have 1 to 5
[22:54:24] psycodad: passive, and if signal is ok i have no loss.
[22:54:34] wagnerrp: at least over here, our cable providers usually provide power for around 4 devices before you start to have problems
[22:54:39] bindi: http://www.vekoy.com/product_info.php?cPath=8 . . . ucts_id=5574 guess this'll do then
[22:54:54] wagnerrp: tuner cards tend to be more finicky than those available in TVs
[22:54:55] sraue (sraue!~stephan@xbmc/staff/sraue) has joined #mythtv-users
[22:55:11] tzanger: bah now this p4 3.4GHz is a little underpowered for an ATSC backend
[22:55:30] wagnerrp: tzanger: only if you intend to do a lot of commflagging/transcoding
[22:55:38] wagnerrp: otherwise, its plenty powerful to run the scheduler
[22:55:55] tzanger: wagnerrp: nah, it's having trouble pulling the stream to disk and feeding it to a frontend
[22:56:03] wagnerrp: it shouldnt
[22:56:16] wagnerrp: you got problems other than lack of power
[22:56:34] wagnerrp: even the people foolishly trying to use sheevaplugs for their backend can manage that
[22:56:40] tzanger: 1.3–1.6 loadavg, lots of disk/netowrk i/o and between 13 and 25% cpu time in wait
[22:56:40] psycodad: i run 4* pvr150 in a 3GHz p4 with 5 backends happily sucking content
[22:56:55] psycodad: r/backend/frontend/
[22:57:04] tzanger: actually you know what it might very well be... software raid
[22:57:23] tzanger: it's 2xRAID1 with LVM on top of that
[22:57:23] wagnerrp: you shouldnt be running raid for recordings
[22:57:37] tzanger: no, it's storing more than just recordings, I need to separate off the actual fileserving
[22:57:38] wagnerrp: well... raid1 requires next to know processing capability
[22:57:45] wagnerrp: its just duplicating data onto both controllers
[22:57:47] tzanger: yeah I thought it was raid5 until I checked
[22:57:48] wagnerrp: s/know/no/
[22:58:28] tzanger: the CPU's mostly idle, I must be having trouble with network or the atsc card driver
[23:00:20] psycodad: tzanger: check your disk io on backend with dd and then check network throughput with either ftp or dd on a nfs share on the backend
[23:01:24] psycodad: happy new year fellow myth users! here (.ch) the clock just ticked over
