[00:03:17] Gumby (Gumby!~gumby@unaffiliated/gumby) has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
[00:03:27] echosyp: any assist on this one?
[00:03:58] echosyp: first id like to get the video working properly, then i'll worry about changing the channels
[00:07:30] J-e-f-f-A: echosyp: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/HDPVR#Configuring_ . . . VR_in_MythTV for setting up the HD-PVRs
[00:07:47] echosyp: yeah, i followed that
[00:07:51] echosyp: and it left me here
[00:09:09] J-e-f-f-A: Ah... Well, I can't say that I've had any problems with my HD-PVRs, other than overheating... but I've got a fan blowing on them now and haven't had a failed recording in over 2 weeks.
[00:09:21] J-e-f-f-A: I use firewire for my channel changes.
[00:09:35] echosyp: im not
[00:09:51] echosyp: but it still shows no picture in the FE
[00:10:13] J-e-f-f-A: How powerful is your FE?
[00:10:27] echosyp: turion 64 x2
[00:10:49] J-e-f-f-A: Ok, and other video (non hd-pvr) plays fine?
[00:11:00] echosyp: yeah
[00:11:34] echosyp: i can even cat /dev/video0 (or video1) and get the output
[00:11:36] J-e-f-f-A: Did you give it 5–10 secs to start? It takes a bit for the hd-pvr to lock on to the signal.
[00:11:41] echosyp: yeah
[00:11:46] echosyp: it says signal 0%
[00:11:55] echosyp: i left it for a min
[00:11:57] J-e-f-f-A: Humm... Oh, do you have audio cables hooked up?
[00:12:07] echosyp: yeah
[00:12:09] echosyp: i got audio
[00:12:27] J-e-f-f-A: I mean between the HD-PVR and the set-top-box.
[00:13:00] echosyp: i have audio
[00:13:14] echosyp: to the pvr
[00:13:16] echosyp: yes
[00:13:20] echosyp: from the stb
[00:14:29] J-e-f-f-A: Ok. Then I'd double/triple/quad check your settings in mythtv-setup for the capture card – make sure you're setup for the proper capture device (H.264 Encoder card) and the sound source is set properly (analog or digital)...
[00:14:58] echosyp: oh, it says something in the sound source
[00:14:59] echosyp: ERROR
[00:15:38] wagnerrp: Beirdo: 160GB? are the 2.5"?
[00:15:40] J-e-f-f-A: ^ that could be the issue. ;-) Which version of MythTV btw?
[00:16:36] Gumby (Gumby!~gumby@S010600104b2780d5.vc.shawcable.net) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:16:41] echosyp: .24
[00:17:58] echosyp: says "ERROR COMPILE WITH V4L SUPORT TO QUERY AUDIO INPUTS"
[00:18:40] wagnerrp: what OS are you running?
[00:19:25] echosyp: ubuntu 11.04
[00:20:15] wagnerrp: ubuntu 11.04 ships with 2.6.38, which removed v4l1 support, and in doing so broke traditional analog capture in mythtv
[00:20:47] wagnerrp: in an attempt to return that functionality, 11.04 ships with a patch that fixes that, but in doing so breaks HDPVR support
[00:21:05] echosyp: wtf
[00:21:10] echosyp: so what do i do
[00:21:16] J-e-f-f-A: thanks wagnerrp – I didn't know that.  ;-)
[00:21:27] wagnerrp: tgm4883: got any suggestions? ^^^
[00:21:45] echosyp: go back to 10.10?
[00:22:38] wagnerrp: you can manually build mythtv without the patch
[00:22:46] wagnerrp: the HDPVR should work, but other analog devices will not
[00:23:21] wagnerrp: you can upgrade to 0.25, which has a proper patch that works for both
[00:23:33] wagnerrp: but is currently suffering some instabilities due to the recent addition of ipv6 support
[00:25:29] Slim-Kimbo (Slim-Kimbo!~Kimbo@host81-157-2-16.range81-157.btcentralplus.com) has quit (Quit: Slim-Kimbo)
[00:28:28] echosyp: can i build it without ipv6 support
[00:28:42] wagnerrp: no
[00:29:02] GreyFoxx: The only current problem I'm aware of is a problem writing to remote SG's
[00:29:08] wagnerrp: if you choose to go that route, you incur any and all issues that result from running an unstable version of mythtv
[00:29:25] GreyFoxx: which once my backend is done recording for the night I will hopefully track down
[00:29:33] jos180 (jos180!~jos180@109.224.135.180) has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
[00:29:34] wagnerrp: and there was one where ipv4-only systems didnt work
[00:29:44] wagnerrp: and there was ... and ....
[00:29:44] GreyFoxx: which has since been fixed :)
[00:29:49] echosyp: yeah, i got it
[00:29:56] echosyp: bad idea
[00:29:57] wagnerrp: not that you havent been quick about fixing each problem as they arose
[00:30:02] jos180 (jos180!~jos180@109.224.135.180) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:30:11] wagnerrp: but that your limited testing environment is only going to encounter so much
[00:30:20] wagnerrp: which is exactly why we have the unstable branch
[00:30:31] wagnerrp: so such things can be hashed out in a large environment
[00:30:48] GreyFoxx: Which is why it sucks a little that people never want to run the dev stuff. I bugged for months to get epople to run the patch
[00:30:53] jos180 (jos180!~jos180@109.224.135.180) has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
[00:31:04] GreyFoxx: eventually I harrased all of my local myth friends to do it :)
[00:31:17] echosyp: for stability, my best bet would be to downgrade ubuntu to 10.10 then,
[00:31:17] jos180 (jos180!~jos180@109.224.135.180) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:31:19] GreyFoxx: but all of them had ipv6 enabled (obviously)

[00:46:39] tgm4883: wagnerrp, echosyp the bug report says it was fixed by danielk
[00:47:01] tgm4883: actually, looks like it is in 0.24 fixes

[00:50:01] tgm4883: I'm confused if the comment means it was backported, or that it was closed because the other bug was fixed in master
[00:50:32] jos180 (jos180!~jos180@109.224.135.180) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:51:23] echosyp: looks to me like its fixed
[00:51:34] echosyp: but that would be in the ppa version no?
[00:52:10] tgm4883: echosyp, if it got backported, it would have happened today. Probably after our builds, so it wouldn't be in the ppa version yet
[00:52:45] echosyp: but it would be soon
[00:53:35] tgm4883: echosyp, in about 24 hours
[00:55:07] BLZbubba: when i detect my hdhomerun dual tuner, i end up with 4 encoders listed in the database and mythweb. is this normal?
[00:57:14] wagnerrp: BLZbubba: yes
[00:59:11] BLZbubba: why does it have 2 entries for each?
[00:59:45] tgm4883: BLZbubba, multirec
[01:00:30] wagnerrp: BLZbubba: digital tuners capture an entire mutliplex at once
[01:00:37] wagnerrp: each multiplex may carry several channels
[01:00:57] wagnerrp: so by use of proper filtering, you can capture multiple channels simultaneously with a single digital tuner
[01:01:12] wagnerrp: mythtv resolves that mechanism through the use of virtual tuners
[01:01:20] wagnerrp: which is why you see two per physical tuners
[01:01:29] wagnerrp: you can have up to five per physical tuner
[01:01:56] tgm4883: echosyp, I'm guessing that commit isnt backported to 0.24 fixes
[01:02:10] tgm4883: it looks like it was a request for a previous patch that didn't work properly

[01:31:04] Belboz999: Hey all, I just got Comcast's Digital Starter Package, and honestly, all I want to do right now is be able to view a channel, any channel, probably just by making the hauppage capture card into a dumb listener, and changing channels on the motorola cable box with the motorola remote
[01:32:22] Belboz999: I can't seem to find any documentation on just doing this seeming simple task, I can find tons of documentation on doing all kinds of other crazy stuff, but nothing as basic and fundamental
[01:32:53] echosyp: cat /dev/video0 >> test.avi

[01:50:13] wagnerrp: actually, its not that bad
[01:50:17] wagnerrp: only problem is the motherboard
[01:55:58] Beirdo: w99t
[01:56:05] Beirdo: w00t rather
[01:56:09] wagnerrp: $10 more, and i dont get as nice a motherboard as i want
[01:56:18] wagnerrp: im going to microcenter
[01:56:24] Beirdo: so all the parts are here for my HDPVR power-cycling boards
[01:56:28] wagnerrp: f- this lack of memory
[01:56:41] Beirdo: and... most importantly... they all seem to fit ;)
[01:56:42] wagnerrp: just crapped out mid-recording due to fusefs again
[01:56:57] Beirdo: I was somewhat worried about the USB connector
[01:58:22] wagnerrp: of course i cant be certain because their website is hosed
[01:58:26] Beirdo: aww
[01:58:27] wagnerrp: and everything is marked as out of stock
[01:58:35] Beirdo: well that sucks.
[01:58:46] Beirdo: I scored a free machine today from work
[01:58:52] Beirdo: heh
[01:59:07] Beirdo: old & crappy, but free
[01:59:22] Beirdo: still a P4

[01:59:56] Beirdo: the recycling pile
[02:00:22] Beirdo: there was a full shelf of 72G UltraSCSI drives too... a coworker liberated them
[02:00:55] Beirdo: there's a scanner/printer combo that I'll take home tomorrow if it's still there
[02:01:10] Beirdo: if it don't work as a scanner, it will go BACK to the recycling pile
[02:01:11] Beirdo: heh
[02:01:28] J-e-f-f-A: ;-)
[02:02:38] Beirdo: But I'm thinking for the Dell I just got (Dell Precision 370)
[02:03:08] Beirdo: I could pull the CDROM, and put in two of the nice little 6*2.5" drive thingies

[02:10:10] Beirdo: heh

[02:13:57] J-e-f-f-A: Belboz999: in mythtv-setup "Preset tuner to channel: 3" — but IMHO, ewww... At least use composite video or S-video. ;-) (ok for testing though...)
[02:14:43] Belboz999: thanks J-e-f-f-A, right, what settings should I use to make this work?
[02:14:52] Belboz999: Frequency table? Modulation?
[02:15:16] Beirdo: or just hook it to the TV, finish the setup and THEN hook it to the capture card

[02:18:00] J-e-f-f-A: Freq table could just be set to "Cable", and Modulation to anything – as channel 3 is the same freq wether it's broadcast tv, or any of the frequency tables (they only differ on the higher channels)
[02:18:27] sphery: Belboz999: if you have a DTA with only RF-modulated output (outputs on "channel 3" or "channel 4" instead of using an S-Video or Composite output to punish you for not paying for a cable-co STB), then use the "Preset tuner to channel" setting J-e-f-f-A mentioned /and/ set your external channel change script to /bin/true
[02:18:29] Beirdo: OMG, I'm loving these headphones.
[02:18:35] sphery: (until you have a real channel change script)
[02:19:33] sphery: Beirdo: yeah, can you turn them down a bit--you're making the whole channel shake
[02:19:41] sphery: 110dB, right?
[02:20:07] Beirdo: hehe, I'm playing music at the max the MacBook's amp will push
[02:20:18] Beirdo: it's just a touch too loud. Perfect.
[02:20:24] sphery: heh
[02:20:35] Beirdo: I should find some GNR and really test em
[02:22:24] Beirdo: although this Gino Vannelli single should amply prove it. Not bad for $56 headphones :)

[03:16:45] wagnerrp: beirdo, there were some problems with mythcommflag and the hdpvr
[03:17:00] wagnerrp: were those in 0.24? or was that something that happened after the most recent sync?
[03:17:19] Beirdo: both, I think
[03:17:35] wagnerrp: fixed in 0.24?
[03:17:38] Beirdo: we fixed them (seek-table issues), but it's periodically come back
[03:17:42] Beirdo: I believe so

[03:26:47] wagnerrp: of course someone very brazenly said 'he cant use the xbox any longer, because it doesnt have the power for his de-facto standard 720p h264 tv and movie rips
[03:27:43] wagnerrp: so posting as an AC, i questioned his judgment for posting his illegal activities using a registered account on a public forum
[03:27:55] [R]: BLZbubba: "see"?
[03:28:09] Belboz999: Okay, I still cannot find anywhere to set the channel change script to /bin/true, supposedly it's supposed to be in input connections, but I see nothing like it there
[03:28:31] wagnerrp: it never ceases to amaze how people try to either defend those actions calling me brainwashed, or claim somehow he didnt say he was doing anything illegal
[03:30:15] wagnerrp: it disturbs me how people are so nonchalant about such things
[03:30:37] [R]: Belboz999: open your eyes? its very mucdh there
[03:30:50] BLZbubba: [R]: i added the capture card on the new host; and it is in the db, and the backend started and found the card. but mythweb only shows the cards on the master; and still has conflicts
[03:31:22] wagnerrp: BLZbubba: mythweb doesnt see anything
[03:31:31] Belboz999: [R] I assure you, it is not
[03:31:33] [R]: BLZbubba: hwo d you know the backend "found" it?
[03:31:41] [R]: Belboz999: im looking at the screen right now
[03:31:46] wagnerrp: that status page in mythweb is just it proxying through the backend status page produced by the backend

[03:33:02] DeviceZer0: i think i give up on this
[03:33:15] BLZbubba: wagnerrp: ok now it sees them
[03:33:24] wagnerrp: Belboz999: digital tuners cannot use external tuner scripts
[03:33:28] [R]: Belboz999: "a hauppage" says nothing...
[03:33:35] Belboz999: [R] Frontend ID: Samsung S5H1411 QAM/ Subtype ATSC
[03:33:48] [R]: Belboz999: yeah, you can do a script for digital as wagnerrp said
[03:33:48] wagnerrp: Belboz999: what are you trying to do?
[03:34:46] Belboz999: okay, I found the box, it's a PCI-E Hauppage WinTV-HVR 1250
[03:35:06] Belboz999: wagnerrp: simply tune into my STB using mythtv on channel 3, that's it, nothing fancy
[03:35:12] wagnerrp: the HVR-1250 does not do analog capture or tuning
[03:35:59] Belboz999: frak, I've got digital cable, and this damn free STB is simply broadcasting an analog-only signal???
[03:36:05] BLZbubba: ok what does it mean when a show is in mythweb with a dotted line around the box instead of a solid green or red?
[03:36:32] wagnerrp: yes, all modulated output from a digital tuner will be analog
[03:36:34] [R]: BLZbubba: if you put the cursor over the title and/or click it, it *should* tell you what it means
[03:36:37] Belboz999: is there any chance I can pick up most, if not all of the channels by plugging in the cable line directly into the capture card?
[03:36:45] DeviceZer0: is there any better way to visualize this data from SD?
[03:36:54] Belboz999: or will the encryption kill me?
[03:36:57] wagnerrp: Belboz999: see http://www.silicondust.com/support/channels/
[03:37:10] BLZbubba: [R]: nope. it was the 2 shows that were in the middle of recording when i restarted the backend
[03:37:13] [R]: DeviceZer0: visualize?
[03:37:22] [R]: BLZbubba: what?
[03:37:59] DeviceZer0: [R], working with the raw xml from sd....trying to look for a certain airing of a show and look to see if its marked as hd
[03:38:10] [R]: DeviceZer0: good luck with that
[03:38:20] [R]: DeviceZer0: what about checking hte zap2it website?
[03:38:41] DeviceZer0: what does the Program ID in mythtv map to in SD? i cant grep that from the xml
[03:38:49] DeviceZer0: Program ID: EP011242160053 returns nothing
[03:39:17] wagnerrp: DeviceZer0: its entirely possible the xmltv script does not output programid

[03:45:49] Belboz999: well, this sucks, I do have an older Hauppage that recieves analog, but I don't have room in my HTPC for it, as it's PCI, I bought the current card specifically becasuse it used one of the then unused PCI-E slots
[03:46:44] wagnerrp: you bought the cheap one with no mpeg encoder
[03:47:25] wagnerrp: i would say get the -2250, but that only has one coax input for both tuners, so of no use to those coax-only DTAs
[03:47:28] Belboz999: what can I say, I'm broke :P
[03:47:52] wagnerrp: find an old machine, and run it as a slave backend?
[03:48:08] Belboz999: how much would getting the digital STB help this issue?
[03:48:28] Belboz999: I really don't like the way Comcast does this
[03:48:29] wagnerrp: it wouldnt, because the 1250 still doesnt do analog
[03:48:53] Belboz999: wagnerrp: AFAIK, the digital box has more outputs, such as HDMI
[03:49:07] wagnerrp: but your computer doesnt do HDMI capture
[03:49:52] Belboz999: correct, though my monitor does accept hdmi
[03:50:03] Belboz999: frak, how is anyone supposed to make this work?
[03:50:05] wagnerrp: but you cant capture using your monitor, so theres no point
[03:50:13] wagnerrp: thats the whole point
[03:50:28] wagnerrp: make it difficult enough for the consumer, and theyll have no choice but to rent all hardware from you
[03:50:36] Belboz999: sucks
[03:50:46] Belboz999: you know what really pisses me off?
[03:50:59] wagnerrp: cable companies?
[03:51:01] Belboz999: they had this expanded basic service, which was $25/mo
[03:51:25] Belboz999: then they bundled it into the "Digital Starter" package, which is $29.95/mo
[03:51:54] Belboz999: but, you don't get the digital or HD channels without the $8.95/mo digital STB
[03:52:32] Belboz999: so, essentially, the $5/mo more for the digital starter vs the expanded basic, simply buys you the option of paying more for digital channels
[03:52:38] wagnerrp: actually, if that you needed the big box to get digital channels, that would mean the analog ones were still available and you didnt need the DTA
[03:54:10] Belboz999: I'm doing a full channel scan now, with the cable plugged directly into the capture card, so far it's picked up a ton of channels, but it's been having to try to decrypt most of them
[03:54:45] wagnerrp: it wont try to decrypt unless you tell it to
[03:54:55] wagnerrp: and since you cannot decrypt, there is no point telling it to
[03:54:56] BLZbubba: ok it is recording on the 3rd tuner but when i play it back it bombs out saying it can't contact the master backend
[03:54:57] Belboz999: so, whether or not it actually decrypts them is anyone's guess ATM, will see what happens when it's done
[03:55:07] BLZbubba: things i record on the other 2 are ok
[03:55:19] BLZbubba: is there a way to force it to always use the real master backend?
[03:55:19] Belboz999: wagnerrp: what do you mean I cannot decrypt?

[04:47:15] Belboz999: 5 of which is Comcast promoting it's "Xfinity" or w/e service
[04:48:03] wagnerrp: you can pick up broadcast 1080p channels?
[04:48:43] Belboz999: and essentially, even if I shell out for their magical digital decoder box, for $8.95/mo, I'll only be getting analog output from it, right?
[04:49:02] Belboz999: wagnerrp: yeah, the local stations are all in HD, AFAIK most of which is 1080P
[04:49:20] Belboz999: it's only ABC, CBS, NBC, and FOX, but w/e
[04:49:26] wagnerrp: maybe 1080i, ive not heard of anyone doing 1080p in north america
[04:49:27] Beirdo: oh, this is more like it

[05:29:32] Beirdo: correct
[05:29:46] Beirdo: how the #@$#@$ did I order the wrong ones?

[05:30:39] Beirdo: wonder if mouser has them
[05:31:56] Beirdo: 100 can ship immediately

[06:12:18] Beirdo: :)
[06:12:25] Beirdo: OK, that's a lot simpler
[06:12:49] wagnerrp: ive just been holding off due to my underpowered and memory lacking system
[06:12:53] Beirdo: the hardest part will be to create the builder steps, although they will be nearly identical to Linux
[06:13:22] Beirdo: for the slave, just download the buildslave package from buildbot.net (I think it is)
[06:13:42] Beirdo: install python (of course) and twisted
[06:13:57] Beirdo: and then just install the slave to a directory
[06:14:13] wagnerrp: do you do a full build/install?
[06:14:16] wagnerrp: or just build of the core?
[06:14:18] Beirdo: we'll set you up with the slavename/password in the configs

[06:14:47] wagnerrp: so it has to install mid-way

[06:22:57] wagnerrp: mycosys: unless youre trying to find it in the limited pickings of a B&M

[06:23:24] wagnerrp: but for both, its $80

[06:39:33] Beirdo: designed the board for a 5V relay... ordered 12V relays. Go me!
[06:40:36] Beirdo: so, I could make a rev2 board with a 5–12V stepup regulator :)
[06:40:49] Beirdo: or... buy the right ones (which I did)...
[06:41:12] justinh: 12V coil? Oops ;)
[06:42:15] Beirdo: yeah
[06:42:15] justinh: there's a few ways you coulda done this design come to think... like isolate the logic from the switching, and power the switched side of it from... the PSU you're switching :D

[06:42:55] Beirdo: so, yeah. fun
[06:43:13] clever: Beirdo: ive switched 12v from 5v logic before with little work
[06:43:16] Beirdo: it's isolated with a NPN, though
[06:43:24] clever: just use a regular transistor to switch the GND of the 12v device
[06:43:26] justinh: using a charge pump or whatever just to energise a relay coil is umm... kind of daft though
[06:43:40] Beirdo: justinh: agreed.
[06:43:44] clever: seperate 12v rail for the relay or whatever
[06:43:54] Beirdo: unless the relays are easier to obtain, of course
[06:44:00] justinh: negative voltage rail.. sure... but a relay... pff
[06:44:15] justinh: 5V coil relays abound :)
[06:44:21] clever: in my case, i was PWM'ing a 12v car lamp
[06:44:33] justinh: clever: well you wouldn't be using a bloody relay anyway
[06:44:37] Beirdo: yeah, but 5V coil, 5A DPST NC...
[06:44:43] clever: justinh: yeah
[06:45:03] clever: enless its something high current, id just switch the gnd on/off directly with a transistor
[06:45:24] ** justinh is hoping he gets an interview at the high power electronics gig. By 'high power' they mean like, 100kW inverters & suchlike **
[06:45:30] Beirdo: and that's why you're not making the board that will control my HDPVR
[06:45:51] Beirdo: oooh, that can be fun
[06:46:05] justinh: Beirdo: likely more fun than these darn cctv dvrs
[06:46:09] clever: Beirdo: what does the hdpvr power brick provide?
[06:46:19] justinh: clever: 5V
[06:46:23] Beirdo: clever: 5V, 2+A
[06:46:29] clever: ah
[06:46:35] justinh: 10 watts? Holy poop!
[06:46:42] Beirdo: justinh: yah, you could use a change
[06:46:53] clever: id go with either a relay or a high power transistor
[06:47:00] Beirdo: relat
[06:47:02] Beirdo: relay...
[06:47:05] clever: its not something you want on/off fast, so relay isnt a problem
[06:47:09] justinh: Beirdo: oh they used to be more fun. when the products did what they said on the tin
[06:47:16] Beirdo: and it's only energized when you are powering it off
[06:47:22] justinh: clever: isolation is good in this application

[06:48:04] clever: i'm powering a breadboard off the UPS's battery bank
[06:48:14] Beirdo: heh, ground loops suck
[06:48:18] clever: and the breadboard gnd goes back into chassis ground of a tower, thru the serial cable
[06:48:31] justinh: reminds me I need to buy a gnd loop isolator for my car
[06:48:37] clever: the UPS could easily have been -12v and gnd, causing a dead short thru my project
[06:49:14] justinh: haven't even *seen* a breadboard since I was at college
[06:49:18] clever: i thin the high power UPS is actualy -12v gnd and +12, simpler to produce the AC sine waves
[06:49:33] justinh: for the price of em it's easier to knock something up on veroboard
[06:49:40] clever: the second UPS is designed to run from 4 batterys, not a single one
[06:49:53] Beirdo: heh, for my stuff, I go straight to circuit board
[06:50:12] clever: if i ever need the breadboard for another project, i can trasfer it to veroboard
[06:50:14] justinh: I'd have at least veroboarded that design
[06:50:20] clever: until then, it will sit on a breadboard in the furnace room
[06:50:30] justinh: but then, doing so with the micro you're using would be tricky ;)
[06:50:44] Beirdo: the thing works great... other than not energizing the bloody relay

[07:31:40] justinh: OneForAll have started doing 'activity' programmable remotes now. they seem quite nice
[07:31:40] stuartm: justinh: no, I'm referring to the higher end models e.g. the 900
[07:32:09] justinh: yeah & you can buy an iPhone or very high end Android phone for what they want for the Harmony One
[07:32:46] stuartm: honestly I'd expect to get the 900 for the current price of the 600, I wouldn't expect them to still be selling the 600 any more
[07:33:23] justinh: I paid about £25 for the 515 & I feel hard done by
[07:34:22] stuartm: and I'd have liked to see a remote where 75% of the buttons were touchscreen – hell, with no pre-defined buttons exactly but a fully flexible touchscreen interface for well under £100

[07:50:54] robertzaccour: its hauppauge
[07:51:02] mycosys: ymmv by competance?
[07:51:12] robertzaccour: 49001 LF
[07:54:40] robertzaccour: I'm a dummy about this stuff sorry
[07:55:55] justinh: mythtv supports using the Hauppauge HD-PVR, so in theory you should be good to go
[07:56:06] mycosys: the hdpvr is supported by mythtv, if you follow the instructions on the wiki you should be fine
[07:56:09] justinh: how much more to it could there be?
[07:56:31] robertzaccour: justinh: ok thanks. does it detect devices by default or will I have to point it out to it?
[07:56:39] justinh: it does not detect devices
[07:56:53] justinh: you have to select the correct type of device and device node
[07:56:54] robertzaccour: justinh: how would I get it to work then?
[07:57:01] justinh: the docs will tell you that
[07:57:02] mycosys: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Hauppauge_HD-PVR
[07:57:26] mycosys: obtained by googling mythtv hdpvr
[07:57:31] mycosys: first result
[07:59:51] robertzaccour: ok thanks mycosys
[08:00:00] robertzaccour: I'm gonna boot into a live session and try it out
[08:00:04] mycosys: :)
[08:00:16] robertzaccour: mycosys: can I record also?
[08:00:45] mycosys: mythtv doesnt view live tv, it records and plays it
[08:01:04] robertzaccour: mycosys: I'm wanting to record gameplay from my ps3
[08:01:10] mycosys: you can do both at the same time
[08:01:16] justinh: oh dear
[08:01:24] mycosys: just as long as you arent trying to use it as a monitor rofl
[08:01:35] justinh: mythtv is not a video recorder
[08:01:37] mycosys: 3 second lag will see you get very fragged
[08:01:52] robertzaccour: mycosys: so there's no display of what its recording?
[08:02:21] mycosys: it records it to hard disk, and can play it back at the same time
[08:02:28] justinh: luckt the hdpvr is a passthrough device
[08:02:31] mycosys: but it takes a few seconds of buffer doing it
[08:02:32] justinh: *lucky
[08:02:35] robertzaccour: mycosys: oh I see, thanks
[08:02:57] mycosys: can do it – as justinh said – just dont try to use myth as the monitor
[08:03:12] justinh: and I wouldn't recommend using mythtv as a VCR anyway
[08:03:16] justinh: seriously
[08:03:27] robertzaccour: ohh ok
[08:03:42] justinh: I don't think any linux app which'd work with the HDPVR has a simple record button
[08:03:43] robertzaccour: I'm hoping it will work well like the windows software it came with
[08:03:57] justinh: no, mythtv is way more complicated
[08:04:01] justinh: way, way more complicated
[08:04:03] robertzaccour: no record button?
[08:04:08] robertzaccour: how do I record then?
[08:04:08] mycosys: mythtv is designed to work with swchedules
[08:04:21] justinh: yes there's a record button, but mythtv is designed to be a DVR for scheduled TV
[08:04:22] mycosys: you can hit r while watching live tv
[08:04:38] mycosys: but ur making ur life very hard setting up myth for just that
[08:04:40] justinh: so there's a whole lot of other stuff you need to do before you can record *anything* config-wise
[08:04:40] robertzaccour: so the r key is my record button?
[08:04:51] mycosys: only when watching live tv
[08:05:06] justinh: just boot into windows, use the hauppauge app
[08:05:06] robertzaccour: mycosys: what about playing live games on my ps3?
[08:05:18] justinh: it'll save you no end of time & hassle
[08:05:43] mycosys: dont even try to use myth as a monitor like i said
[08:05:53] mycosys: justinh knows more than i
[08:05:56] justinh: robertzaccour: the encoder in the hdpvr will give you too much lag to use a PC monitor via that route
[08:06:32] robertzaccour: justinh: so there's nothing thats efficient like the windows software it came with?
[08:06:33] justinh: if you MUST insist on using linux, as far as I know you can just cat the HDPVR device to a file
[08:06:37] robertzaccour: what about tvtime?
[08:06:43] justinh: robertzaccour: for linux? No
[08:06:50] justinh: tvtime doesn't support HDPVR AFAIK
[08:06:56] robertzaccour: oh ok
[08:07:18] mycosys: kaffeine or the like? mplayer? justingh?
[08:07:23] justinh: and I have to reiterate, you won't be able to play any game while watching it on the PC monitor when it's gone through the hdpvr
[08:07:39] justinh: you will have to loop through the device as usual to your TV
[08:08:00] justinh: nobody can play games through an mpeg encoder and win at anything
[08:08:30] justinh: hell, people talk about their performance being marred just by a TV taking too long to display a frame of video lol
[08:09:07] justinh: you can certainly view the input on your PC to make sure the capture is working okay, but beyond that... NOT a good idea to try & play a game through it
[08:09:31] robertzaccour: I don't intend to use it as a monitor, just to record my ps3 gameplay
[08:10:21] justinh: good! we had to establish that because some people come here wanting to use mythtv as a console to PC monitor interface
[08:10:36] mycosys: just about everyone that mentions it lol
[08:10:49] justinh: and those people take some convincing how bad an idea it really is
[08:11:50] robertzaccour: well if I can record my gameplay in 720p in Linux I'll have no need to keep windows
[08:11:56] robertzaccour: thats the idea anyway
[08:12:22] justinh: apart from editing the video of course
[08:12:35] justinh: you haven't seen the state of video editing software in linux
[08:13:12] robertzaccour: justinh: nothing like windows movie maker huh?
[08:13:23] robertzaccour: I don't plan to edit, just upload
[08:13:38] justinh: no trimming at all? meh
[08:13:59] robertzaccour: its kind of like a sport to me. I beat people in wrestling matches online and then upload the videos
[08:14:21] justinh: haha you could use the cat command
[08:14:28] robertzaccour: whats that?
[08:14:35] justinh: cat /devicenode > file.ts
[08:14:58] justinh: where /devicenode is the path to the device node of the hdpvr
[08:15:27] robertzaccour: ok gonna boot into a live session and try it out. thanks yall. I'll probably be back haha if nothing else but to say thanks but most likely for questions

[08:20:10] Beirdo: maybe I'm just too frigging tired, I dunno
[08:20:30] Beirdo: one side of a resistor (10k) is 5V... the other.. 800mV
[08:21:02] Beirdo: the 800mV being at the base of my NPN, which, is, of course, not turning on
[08:22:08] justinh: 800mV, should be turned on. 800mV generally being enough to turn it on
[08:22:18] johd (johd!~johd@dyn166241.wlan.jku.at) has joined #mythtv-users
[08:22:26] mycosys: depending on emitter voltage justinh
[08:22:38] Beirdo: oh, so it is
[08:22:45] justinh: well yeah but if the emitter is at 0v...
[08:22:51] Beirdo: it is
[08:23:03] Beirdo: common emmitter (switching mode)
[08:23:09] justinh: or you got the pinout wrong ;)
[08:23:09] Beirdo: if I could type
[08:23:17] Beirdo: no, I triple-checked that
[08:23:50] mycosys: i cbf but is that enough vurrent to run the npn
[08:23:50] Beirdo: it just seems odd to me how much the voltage dropped across the resistor, but I guess it's just me being tired and stupid tonight ;)
[08:23:59] mycosys: it is current driven not voltage driven
[08:24:08] mycosys: 8current
[08:24:10] mycosys: *
[08:24:42] Beirdo: yeah
[08:24:48] Beirdo: as I said... tired :)
[08:24:57] Beirdo: yeah, it's switching fine
[08:25:12] Beirdo: now the remaining issue is the 12V coil rather than 5V
[08:25:14] Beirdo: eediot
[08:25:19] justinh: so 5V into 10k... should be enough current with most small NPN transistors to switch a relay :)
[08:25:26] Beirdo: it is
[08:25:35] Beirdo: wasn't thinkin
[08:25:40] Beirdo: hehe
[08:26:13] justinh: I hate analogue electronics – actually more that I have a problem remembering much of it
[08:26:19] Beirdo: I keep forgetting (at 1:30ish am) that transistors care about the current. :)
[08:26:43] Beirdo: it's current amplificaton, not voltage... and my brain core dumps that too regularly
[08:26:47] justinh: thankfully in the job I applied for I don't have to do much thinking about analogue design
[08:27:03] Beirdo: I do like some analog at some times
[08:27:10] mycosys: i love analog electronic
[08:27:14] mycosys: so elegant

[08:27:48] justinh: as for the current laws etc.. MEH

[13:14:12] justinh: we got bit by this before. I was asked to test HDMI over an untwisted, unshielded ribbon cable – I tested it on one unit with a load of different monitors, stupidly long hdmi cables & said "well it worked". They went into production with it & it failed
[13:14:34] Kelerion: "but can't you do the tests yourself?" "yes.. I'll fit it in in-between the rest of the crap I have to deal with"

[13:36:21] stuartm: sadly, there are examples in mythtv where we're not using prepared queries properly ... but then the argument you get back is that there are dozens of ways to cause damage with myth so what's another hole matter?
[13:38:00] wagnerrp: i do agree on that, i would like to see an effort to fuzz the protocol over the next few versions

[13:40:00] justinh: I've got a book on php & mysql somewhere & it's one of the first things they mention

[13:44:00] stuartm: "SELECT * FROM settings WHERE data = :DATA AND host = :HOST" is safe

[13:45:01] nidhoegger: hi
[13:45:18] wagnerrp: the only time i can think of in the python bindings where i dont let the bindings handle type management is in generating power rules
[13:45:28] stuartm: wagnerrp: probably just people who have no prior experience with prepared queries and binding, in the dark old days you did build up a query in that way
[13:45:44] wagnerrp: since in that case, you have to prepare the query, and then insert it as a string in a value in the database
[13:46:00] nidhoegger: i still got a problem compiling mythtv 0.24 on my gentoo machine: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/392259/ heres the build log. what can the error be? revdep-rebuild doesnt report errors, world update is done...error begins on line 31 and occurs in mpeg2fix
[13:46:17] stuartm: wagnerrp: yeah, and that's why the power-search rule stuff is icky
[13:46:31] wagnerrp: all the old python code did manually build the queries
[13:47:13] stuartm: iamlindoro had a plan to improve it, abstract the sql behind a series of generic rule building blocks

[13:54:12] thwg: wagnerrp: probably not – can you refer me to some documentation? I haven't found anything relevant yet
[13:54:26] wagnerrp: mythtv-setup, first section
[13:54:42] wagnerrp: there will be an editbox with 'mythfilldatabase'
[13:54:49] wagnerrp: add '--dd-grab-all' onto the end of it
[13:55:03] wagnerrp: try running that once from the command line and see what happens
[13:55:28] stuartm: wagnerrp: that shouldn't be necessary?
[13:55:49] wagnerrp: shouldnt be, no
[13:55:57] wagnerrp: but a couple months ago, i stopped getting data for some reason
[13:56:12] wagnerrp: switching to that for whatever reason fixed it
[13:56:22] wagnerrp: and were all supposed to be switching to that anyway
[13:56:39] wagnerrp: (unless of course youre running something like an Atom that cant handle the load it causes)
[13:56:44] thwg: wagnerrp: I currently only have ssh access – can you point me to the config file?
[13:56:54] wagnerrp: we dont use config files
[13:57:09] wagnerrp: just ssh in and run 'mythfilldatabase'
[13:57:13] wagnerrp: no options, see what happens
[13:57:17] wagnerrp: if you get errors or anything
[13:57:23] stuartm: wagnerrp: hmm, ok, ideally the code should therefore be modified to grab everything by default
[13:57:39] thwg: wagnerrp: it updated successfully – no errors; my data is up to data again
[13:57:52] thwg: date*
[13:58:02] stuartm: thwg: the other possibility is that you've accidentally disabled the automatic execution of mfdb in the settings
[13:58:07] wagnerrp: stuartm: IMHO, it should be default with those users with underspecc'd machines being able to disable it
[13:58:28] wagnerrp: but those users with Atoms wont think to do so, since of course they have a powerful machine
[13:58:39] wagnerrp: and the way it does updates is very disruptive
[13:58:54] wagnerrp: it dumps the whole program table, and rebuilds it from scratch on each run
[13:59:08] wagnerrp: so if you have any recordings that will start during that period, it could break them
[13:59:14] stuartm: wagnerrp: many xmltv grabbers won't grab everything at once for bandwidth/server load reasons and not because of the additional client side processing
[13:59:42] stuartm: wagnerrp: but the uk xmltv grabber has always made a single grab of all 14 days of data each time it runs
[13:59:52] wagnerrp: or perhaps the concern is more about it running over 15 minutes and hitting the next scheduler run
[14:00:02] thwg: wagnerrp: I can set up a cron job to do this, but I figured there had to be a more elegant way
[14:00:21] wagnerrp: in any case, since its pulling one big chunk of data, theres less processing load on the servers to generate it
[14:00:28] stuartm: but the xmltv code path doesn't truncate the program table, it always performs intelligent updates

[14:01:11] wagnerrp: and on multiple runs, schedules direct will tell it when it wants the backend to run it next
[14:01:19] thwg: wagnerrp: and the only way to configure it is via the GUI?
[14:01:22] wagnerrp: as a server managed load balancing
[14:01:23] stuartm: thwg: we strongly discourage users from putting mfdb in a cron job, mythbackend will be much more intelligent about how and when to run it
[14:02:08] thwg: stuartm: understood; I just won't have access to my GUI for several days – just have to be patient, I guess
[14:02:14] stuartm: IMHO we should remove the 'disable automatic mfdb runs' setting, it causes too much confusion
[14:02:44] stuartm: thwg: if you're comfortable with mysql you could check the setting directly

[15:08:13] hashbang: justinh: re. printing; but displays and printed media have completely different gamuts... or are you just saying that you'd like the CMYK preview image to look like the final article, rather than the RGB original?
[15:10:06] justinh: hashbang: I'm saying the RGB 'full red' looks similar enough to 'pigment red' (M & Y mixed in equal proportions) for my needs – but the print doesn't look like that on on the shirts – and yet it does on the paper labels
[15:10:45] justinh: they converted it to CMYK when I uploaded it in RGB format. Downloaded it again & it looks similar enough that I'd be happy if that's what the finished article looked like
[15:10:59] wagnerrp: i actually got out of there better than expected
[15:11:09] justinh: I know what pigment red looks like. Nice & bright
[15:11:17] wagnerrp: microcenter is running a deal on AMD processors, $40 off with a mobo
[15:11:22] justinh: not this weird sh*tty looking colour I got

[15:11:55] justinh: jees, ASDA do a better job of colour tshirt printing
[15:12:01] justinh: but they don't do transparency
[15:12:11] hashbang: wagnerrp: hmm, so a CPU+Mobo for less than the Mobo alone? Bargwin!
[15:12:26] wagnerrp: hashbang: not exactly
[15:12:39] wagnerrp: i got a $90 CPU rather than the $60 one i had planned on

[15:18:35] justinh: hashbang: I know for a fact the red was #ff0000, so I know when I look at the preview they converted it to CMYK because it's no longer #FF0000. The preview image is on a paper label stuck to the garments & it looks near enough to the original. The final thing however, is crap and can only be explained by a difference in gamut between processes – i.e. paper printing vs fabric process
[15:19:18] justinh: in other words, they're a bunch of sheisters
[15:19:59] hashbang: justinh: TBH, I think that's somewhat intrinsic with any kind of DIY printing
[15:20:07] justinh: if it was purely a RGB vs CMYK gamut thing, the paper label would look at least similar to the fabric print I reckon

[15:20:34] Hoochster: never used to be really but is there any advantage to run myth in 64 bit now adays?
[15:20:55] justinh: so they're trying to get off the hook by saying it's RGB vs CMYK when it ain't. Ach well. they can go die in a fiew
[15:21:02] justinh: *go die in a fire
[15:21:09] hashbang: justinh: right, that's cheeky
[15:21:25] wagnerrp: Hoochster: the better question is... is there any disadvantage to to run myth in 64-bit
[15:21:33] Hoochster: :)
[15:21:37] justinh: hashbang: the old "images on screen may look slightly different" thing – I fully understand that. Not *this* different though.
[15:21:55] Hoochster: well as ya know I ordered those parts for a new backend heh so just getting things ready
[15:22:30] hashbang: justinh: I take the view that if it's important the colours come out right, you pay for a pro to work with you and get it right.
[15:23:02] hashbang: justinh: if you don't, then it's pretty much luck as to whether it turns out acceptable or not.
[15:23:16] justinh: hashbang: the original #ff0000 has come out more like (opens GIMP) #DE842C
[15:24:16] justinh: yeh well, I'd dealt with amateurs like ASDA & hadn't been let down like this. Didn't figure an experienced outfit would be like this – and FWIW they ain't cheap
[15:24:18] hashbang: justinh: wow, that's quite a difference.
[15:25:04] hashbang: justinh: I used VistaPrint about 9 years ago to do business cards with their ActiveX browser design tool. They turned out fine, but I've never used them for anything else.
[15:25:07] justinh: like I said I wanted bright red.. I got a dullish orange
[15:25:44] justinh: that it's on a black shirt I could understand but the white is super bright, and the inks are very thick
[15:26:16] justinh: bah. better way to do it would be with screenprinting or vinyl

[17:59:15] wagnerrp: ooh, here we go
[18:00:44] skd5aner: kormoc: true, but 8 of them would take up 3.94", leaving a whole 1.3" for that stuff – that's more than enough
[18:01:27] kormoc: I just know that looking at my 24 drive monsters, 8 of them appear wider then a cdrom drive

[18:03:08] kormoc: NewBuntu81, if you're using "tape", you're back in the early 80's...
[18:03:27] NewBuntu81: normal hard drives...have tape in them
[18:03:32] skd5aner: You mean, 60's...

[18:03:43] kormoc: NewBuntu81, they do not.
[18:03:47] wagnerrp: hard drives have tape in them?
[18:04:01] skd5aner: NewBuntu81: I think you mean SSD versus magnetic platters

[18:04:16] sraue (sraue!~stephan@xbmc/staff/sraue) has joined #mythtv-users
[18:04:22] kormoc: they're magnetic to metal platters
[18:04:24] JEDIDIAH__: tape is either cheap crap or serious overkill enterprise stuff.
[18:04:39] NewBuntu81: hahaha, ok, anyway...
[18:04:45] NewBuntu81: has anyone thought of going to solid state?
[18:04:47] NewBuntu81: or have one working?
[18:04:58] skd5aner: Lots of people I'm sure
[18:04:58] kormoc: NewBuntu81, and no, not a single person in the years SSDs have been out have thought to try it...
[18:05:13] wagnerrp: wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwhy would you?
[18:05:13] wagnerrp: theyre too expensive
[18:05:19] wagnerrp: crap!
[18:05:20] kormoc: I mean, I'd use them for my other computers, but that computer! Unheard of!
[18:05:38] NewBuntu81: lol. i was just curious... :-) they're coming down in price
[18:05:39] kormoc: wagnerrp, meh. There's some cheap ones that are slow slow slow slow slow
[18:05:44] wagnerrp: for boot, sure... but not bulk storage
[18:05:56] JEDIDIAH__: I've thought of putting a 2.5 inch something in a 3.5 inch hot swap rack on my master backend since I've got an unused SATA port and nothing by 3.5 bays left.
[18:06:05] skd5aner: I think danielk the other day said he saw some issues with one he had in a test box
[18:06:07] JEDIDIAH__: SSD is still WAY too expensive.
[18:06:24] wagnerrp: the cheapest ive seen is still ~$1/GB
[18:06:31] skd5aner: honestly – I have no desire to have an SSD drive for really anything I have
[18:06:43] JEDIDIAH__: SSD is faster.
[18:06:47] skd5aner: yea, so?
[18:06:54] wagnerrp: compared to a tenth that for mechanical drives
[18:06:55] JEDIDIAH__: once you get into TB of stuff, it could make a difference.
[18:06:55] kormoc: not always
[18:07:27] skd5aner: my standard HDDs now aren't usually a huge bottleneck and the performance gains aren't on the order of magnitudes
[18:07:27] Muzer: the "Chose icon" screen seems to be near enough unusable for channels with very short names
[18:07:33] kormoc: that $50 16 gig ssh is not fast... at all...
[18:07:45] Muzer: because it only returns a certain number of results, and I can't find a way to search for a whole word, for instance
[18:08:08] Muzer: so finding the icon for a channel like Q or RT is difficult, to say the least
[18:08:11] JEDIDIAH__: even a single order of magnitude would be useful. Stuffs getting too big for how fast spinny drives move stuff.
[18:08:34] Muzer: Q I managed to guess it would be called Q Radio so found it by doing Q_Radio (even though that's not the actual name of the channel), but RT I'm stuck :P

[18:09:20] kormoc: skd5aner, depends on the drive. The new SF2xxx controllers will fully saturate a sata2 link, you need sata3 to get the full speed out of them.

[18:11:49] wagnerrp: skd5aner: for linear access, SSDs are only a few times faster than hard drives
[18:12:02] wagnerrp: for random access, theyre several thousand times faster
[18:12:10] wagnerrp: (with a halfway decent controller)
[18:12:31] JEDIDIAH__: so they are no help for copying 7TB from one array/disk to another, eh?
[18:13:41] wagnerrp: that depends entirely on the storage framework, since in either case its going to have to span several drivesssssss
[18:13:44] kormoc: sure... 125 megabytes per second to 525 megabytes per second is a nice bump, but 7TB of SSD is ungodly costly right now
[18:14:18] JEDIDIAH__: yes... exactly... ungodly costly, just what I was thinking.
[18:14:22] wagnerrp: if you spend the same amount on a giant disk array that you would on 7TB of flash, the disks will do better in sequential access
[18:14:26] JEDIDIAH__: there's always next year, or the year after.
[18:15:33] kormoc: 320 gigs of fast ssd is currently running about $19,000 (fusion io)
[18:15:53] wagnerrp: that doesnt sound quite right
[18:16:04] wagnerrp: 3200GB, maybe?
[18:16:06] kormoc: wagnerrp, FusionIO and similars
[18:16:10] kormoc: nah
[18:16:26] kormoc: it's enterprisey!
[18:16:28] wagnerrp: hell, for $19K, screw the flash and use DDR
[18:16:48] wagnerrp: 320GB of RAM doesnt cost that much
[18:17:18] wagnerrp: even including the controllers and batteries to make them nonvolitile
[18:17:39] JEDIDIAH__: now you are talking the old school idea of what an SSD is.
[18:17:48] kormoc: heh, yeah
[18:17:53] JEDIDIAH__: used one of those in about ought 1
[18:18:11] kormoc: the super fast SSD's are just not priced right imho, but they're selling like hotcakes
[18:18:14] Muzer: When configuring data sources, it doesn't seem possible to scroll, thereby making it impossible – how do you scroll?
[18:18:23] kormoc: Muzer, scroll?
[18:18:31] Muzer: sorry, I wasn't very clear
[18:18:58] Muzer: when you go to the menu where you can choose where to get EPG data from (just broadcast or web sources
[18:18:59] Muzer: )
[18:19:03] Muzer: and then try to configure a web source
[18:19:10] JEDIDIAH__: people with the severest need for speed often have big money to throw around.
[18:19:11] Muzer: it's a CLI-like interface
[18:19:24] Muzer: but you can't scroll down when the questions it asks you scroll off the bottom
[18:19:51] Muzer: I've tried pressing down, page down, and end, and a few random keys out of frustration...
[18:20:46] kormoc: I honestly have no idea what you're talking about. I figured you'd configure that externally
[18:21:03] Muzer: yeah, I'm using the mythtv configuration thingyh
[18:21:09] Muzer: or is that not actually part of mythtv?
[18:21:13] Muzer: it may be Mythbuntu's doing :P
[18:21:13] kormoc: and if you're in the US or Canada, you'd just use SD and configure it via the web
[18:21:25] kormoc: Muzer, it's likely mythbuntu, I've never heard of it
[18:21:41] Muzer: /usr/bin/mythtv-setup

[18:21:50] Muzer: I didn't even know it was possible for web config :P

[18:34:22] tgm4883: Muzer, how can I put this for you to understand
[18:34:25] Muzer: one reason I stopped using Ubuntu (but I stuck Mythbuntu on this because I just wanted something quick)
[18:34:45] tgm4883: Canonical has not built any of the mythbuntu stuff

[18:37:08] Muzer: load mythtv-setup
[18:37:13] akugel: Does anybody know why Fedora 14 MythTV claims to be 0.24.7?
[18:37:23] wagnerrp: bad packaging
[18:37:40] Muzer: Video sources, select the card, set the "Listings grabber" to something, and select "Configure"
[18:37:47] Muzer: that gives a command-line-style configuration window
[18:38:08] Muzer: but when the prompts start to scroll out of the text area, you can't scroll down to read more (despite the obvious presence of a scroll bar)
[18:38:19] Muzer: or at least, I'm too stupid to figure out how :P
[18:38:21] tgm4883: Muzer, IIRC, that shouldn't give a cmd line style config window. But you should probably give us a screenshot
[18:38:39] stuartm: tgm4883: it does for xmltv, i.e. if you're not in North America
[18:38:48] Muzer: k
[18:38:52] tgm4883: ah
[18:38:56] stuartm: and yes it's broken, and no it won't get fixed because in the next release that code won't exist
[18:38:59] kormoc: can't you configure xmltv outside of myth?
[18:39:07] tgm4883: stuartm, thanks for the info, i didn't know that
[18:39:11] stuartm: kormoc: yes you can and that's the best way to go about it
[18:39:14] akugel: What does "Signal (TL___) Partial Lock" mean on mythtv frontend
[18:39:24] Muzer: stuartm: ah, can you point me to where I can find out how?
[18:39:28] akugel: all my channels seem to be getting that
[18:39:58] stuartm: Muzer: xmltv.org should cover it somewhere, but running the xmltv grabber script with --configure should work iirc
[18:40:02] akugel: (using with new HDHomerun)
[18:40:23] Muzer: stuartm: as a user I assume...?
[18:40:26] Muzer: or as root?
[18:40:53] stuartm: Muzer: as the user that will be running the MythTV applications
[18:41:59] stuartm: the whole need to configure the xmltv scripts from the command line sucks and that's why they finally added an API we could use instead, 0.25 will be using that API to do configuration instead so it should be a lot nicer
[18:45:21] Muzer: well, it seems to be working
[18:45:41] Muzer: btw, how does it know which channels on the tuner correspond to which xmltv channels? Or do you have to configure that somewhere too?
[18:45:59] wagnerrp: Muzer: if analog, you simply import them from the lineup
[18:46:11] wagnerrp: if digital, you have to manually match the xmltvids in the channel editor
[18:46:35] Muzer: ah, k
[18:46:42] Muzer: I'll go into the channel editor after this, then

[21:15:56] mythter_bill: [I thought mythfrontend --version had failed the last time I tried it; maybe I wasn't running as root)
[21:16:58] justinh: you shouldn't need to be root for that to work
[21:17:34] tgm4883: iamlindoro, well at least you are fair in your assumption that all issues are Ubuntu packagers fault
[21:18:35] mythter_bill: well, it works now when I'm not root. I don't know what was failing before.
[21:19:31] iamlindoro: That is a very, very, very old .24
[21:19:31] iamlindoro: pretty much right at release
[21:19:31] iamlindoro: you need to get on current .24-fixes
[21:20:10] iamlindoro: tgm4883: Who said anything like that?
[21:20:37] tgm4883: iamlindoro, you just point at Ubuntu packages, without knowing what he is running?
[21:20:41] iamlindoro: tgm4883: The issue had only been reported to me on Ubuntu, and I didn't even suggest anything was your fault
[21:20:52] iamlindoro: In fact, I more or less gave you credit for working around it
[21:21:09] tgm4883: iamlindoro, if thats the case, I may have completely misunderstood your comment
[21:21:21] iamlindoro: IT appears you did
[21:21:54] tgm4883: in which case, I would say I'm sorry, but i've been told by wagnerrp to never appoligize and instead tell people off
[21:22:01] tgm4883: :)
[21:22:04] mythter_bill: I have repository problems. configure tells me I'm missing libmp3lame, it's not in the rpmfusion repository I use, and the version in another repository has conflicting contents. So — I'm slightly stuck.
[21:22:17] mythter_bill: But the current version, isn't it 0.24.1 ?
[21:22:38] justinh: yes. 0.24 with all the fixes up to the release point
[21:23:23] mythter_bill: OK, maybe it's worth compiling. Any suggestions on how to get past the libmp3lame problem?
[21:24:01] justinh: ooo dependency hell
[21:24:16] iamlindoro: mythter_bill: Well, once you work around your package management issues, if you can get to current -fixes you should find the freeze at end of playback fixed
[21:24:29] justinh: though I was led to believe if you used the right repos there'd be no risk of clashing

[21:27:42] mythter_bill: justinh: yes, if I hadn't use rpmfusion, I'd be OK. But I can't combine that repository with the other one (I think ATrpms)
