| [00:35:03] | DeviceZer0: | hello all. is there a way to make a custom rule thats along the lines of "record at any time on any channel except <channel>" ? |
| [00:35:33] | DeviceZer0: | the show american dad airs new episodes in hd on fox...but also airs the new episodes on cartoon network(which is not hd). |
| [00:36:04] | wagnerrp: | so your previous recording matching should manage it |
| [00:37:07] | DeviceZer0: | well mythtv is wanting to record the one on cartoon network because it did not record the new ep on fox. |

| [00:41:43] | DeviceZer0: | ah perfect. thanks sphery :) |

| [01:42:38] | wagnerrp: | however you would be better off just purchasing a nice new i7 or X6 |
| [01:42:38] | wagnerrp: | rather than spend all the electricity to run a bunch of old P4s and Ath XPs |
| [01:45:59] | dserban: | Yeah, figured. |
| [01:46:55] | dserban: | They're dual core amd64's, the one backend running mysql, 4 tuners and 14 drives is IO bound, so I'm trying to split the load. Can't even happily arrow up/down on the front ends due to IO lag on the BE. |
| [01:47:43] | wagnerrp: | you dont have your database on the same drives are your recordings do you? |
| [01:48:06] | dserban: | Nope, raid1 boot parition which is db/os. |
| [01:48:26] | wagnerrp: | compiling stuff on the OS drive? using copious swap? |
| [01:49:27] | dserban: | Nein, nein. Fully dedicated to BE duties, slow as eff. It's PCI bound, the 4 tuners, two pci sata cards, network on the pci and pci-e bus, uhh I'm sure I'm forgetting something somewhere. :) |
| [01:50:12] | dserban: | I'll turn it into a recording only box, with recordings stored over nfs... just figured I can stack 2–4 slim boxes to commflag, and one to serve the DB. |
| [01:51:59] | dserban: | And.. doesn't help that I have 5 custom recording rules plus over 120 title recording rules... heh |
| [01:52:08] | dserban: | so the db is ... slllooowww. |
| [01:52:17] | dserban: | I've mysqltuner.pl' |
| [01:52:20] | dserban: | d it already |
| [02:00:55] | wagnerrp: | dserban: you know any php? |
| [02:03:01] | wagnerrp: | or kormoc, youre not marked as afk... any insight on this? http://pastebin.com/sZ7nrGCa |
| [02:04:23] | wagnerrp: | somehow, that line that adds the brackets is chopping off most of the address |
| [02:06:14] | wagnerrp: | kormoc: nevermind, seems '+' does something other than concatenation |
| [02:11:41] | sphery: | wagnerrp: think you want . instead of + |
| [02:11:43] | kormoc: | holy crap! That should be . rather then + |
| [02:11:53] | kormoc: | wow... wonder what I was smoking and why I didn't share |
| [02:11:55] | wagnerrp: | yeah, but theres more problems beyond that |
| [02:12:29] | wagnerrp: | on second thought, my web server doesnt do ipv6 currently |
| [02:12:34] | wagnerrp: | maybe thats my problem |
| [02:13:38] | kormoc: | nah, the + is a problem. We're casting it to a number... |
| [02:14:01] | wagnerrp: | yeah, but i also dont have an ipv6 address to connect to my master backend with |
| [02:14:09] | wagnerrp: | which may be why its still not working after fixing that |
| [02:19:39] | wagnerrp: | yeah, that was it... working now |

| [03:11:39] | wagnerrp: | i want to round up all these people, and test them in a double blind study |
| [03:11:55] | wagnerrp: | have them sit in a room, in a faraday cage |

| [03:12:23] | wagnerrp: | the transmitter and light operate completely independently |
| [03:12:35] | wagnerrp: | see if the people start going nuts when the transmitter is turned on |
| [03:12:39] | wagnerrp: | or when the light is turned on |
| [03:13:30] | wagnerrp: | if but a single person manages to guess the transmitter with any statistical likelihood, ill recant anything ive ever said on the topic |
| [03:14:15] | Beirdo: | hehe |
| [03:14:29] | wagnerrp: | if those people are affected by the innocuous light rather than the transmitter, they either get jailed for inciting a public panic, or get sent to a mental institution |

| [03:16:16] | Beirdo: | it doesn't need to be ionizing, it cooks water FFS |

| [04:24:14] | Beirdo: | nope |
| [04:29:31] | jpabq: | echosyp, check your system logs. There may be a clue there. Also, sounds like you have not setup udev for them yet — you will want to so you know which is which after a reboot. I am off to bed. |
| [04:29:56] | echosyp: | nice, thanks |
| [04:30:50] | jpabq: | Oh, and it may help to try alternate USB ports — try to get them on different "hubs". |

| [05:01:48] | k-man: | Beirdo: nice |
| [05:02:26] | echosyp: | whats in a name |
| [05:02:37] | [R]: | Beirdo: so you ordered just the pcbs and soldered all the components on yourself? |
| [05:02:41] | echosyp: | it'll stick in your mind, thats all thats important |
| [05:02:45] | Beirdo: | devinheitmueller: it's to kill the power |

| [05:04:12] | Beirdo: | right now, I'm fixing an idiotic design flaw... energized the relay backwards |
| [05:04:18] | [R]: | Beirdo: how much was each pcb at a quantity of 47? |
| [05:04:26] | Beirdo: | about $3 |
| [05:04:34] | Beirdo: | and almost $20 in parts |

| [05:38:08] | duron23: | lapion, what the for me ? |
| [05:38:12] | lapion: | duron23, do you play the files over a network ? |
| [05:38:22] | duron23: | no, on the same machine |
| [05:38:49] | lapion: | is the media an external drive ? |
| [05:38:55] | duron23: | and also my mythtv front end does not play live tv |
| [05:39:01] | duron23: | its internal drive |
| [05:39:16] | lapion: | get a better processor.. |
| [05:39:24] | duron23: | but the frontend plays recoded tv well |
| [05:39:28] | lapion: | or maybe a faster hdd |
| [05:39:42] | duron23: | I have dual core 2.9ghz |
| [05:39:48] | lapion: | yeah but when watching tv mythtv is recording at the same time. |
| [05:40:00] | lapion: | try playing while a show is being recorded |
| [05:40:14] | duron23: | the plays well |
| [05:40:32] | duron23: | if I schedule a recording and try to play live tv |
| [05:41:06] | duron23: | it prompts me of the recording being done, and if select that recording, it starts playback |
| [05:41:42] | lapion: | you said you had choppy video when watching live tv. |
| [05:41:55] | duron23: | that on xbmc |
| [05:42:08] | lapion: | why use xbmc. |
| [05:42:26] | duron23: | because mythtv frontend not playing livetv |
| [05:42:37] | duron23: | xbmc does but playback is choppy |
| [05:42:58] | duron23: | and xbmc playback is choppy even for recorded content |
| [05:43:21] | lapion: | stop with this nonsense find out why it won't play live tv by reading the log files |
| [05:44:02] | duron23: | what nonsense ? |
| [05:44:16] | kormoc: | duron23, nuv formatted files are unsupported in XBMC. They'll always be played back incorrectly |
| [05:44:17] | lapion: | I have a pentium 4 and it plays live tv ( 2 streams at the same time just fine |
| [05:44:43] | duron23: | I tail the log everytime I start mythtv to check whats wrong |
| [05:45:18] | duron23: | don't tell me basic things and don't give "nonsense" kind of thngs |
| [05:45:47] | lapion: | if you don't get any usefull information start the backend with the correct logginf options, but firts tail bot the front- and the back-end logfiles |
| [05:45:48] | duron23: | I do appreciate you intent to help me |
| [05:46:14] | duron23: | I have been doing that |
| [05:46:48] | duron23: | and yeah one more weird issue |
| [05:47:01] | duron23: | if I switch to 0.24 playback works |
| [05:47:14] | duron23: | but scaning does not work |
| [05:47:40] | duron23: | but if I switch to 0.23, scanning works but playback doesn't |
| [05:48:14] | lapion: | whenever you go to .24 your database is converted and .23 cannot do anything with your database anymore.. |
| [05:49:31] | k-man: | Beirdo: so is it the sort of hang you could automatically detect and then restart the hdpvr? |
| [05:49:38] | duron23: | I have backups, I restore them when I switch between versions |
| [05:50:56] | Beirdo: | k-man: I detect by 0 byte files |
| [05:51:21] | Beirdo: | as when I get one, I get many in a row |
| [05:51:53] | Beirdo: | so if it wants to misbehave, I will be shutting it off... triggered from the start of the recording |
| [05:52:39] | lapion: | duron di you start the front/backend with higher loggin settings ? |
| [05:52:55] | duron23: | mean ? |
| [05:53:09] | duron23: | using sudo ? |
| [05:53:26] | duron23: | lapion, using root ? |

| [06:33:33] | duron23: | yeah, sorry I said lucid right, lucid has some issue with my graphics card |
| [06:33:58] | justinh: | man, all this changing distro versions cos something doesn't work. heheheheheh |
| [06:34:01] | duron23: | that famous nouveau driver issue with nvidia cards |
| [06:34:14] | justinh: | so use the propriatary driver then |

| [06:34:25] | duron23: | so had to switch to maverick |
| [06:34:49] | echosyp: | i did that only to find that my problem was fixed quickly and it was all unnecessary |
| [06:34:58] | duron23: | justinh, I can, but didn't had that much patient to sit down and troubleshoot |
| [06:35:35] | justinh: | much patience? updating a distro isn't usually a breeze |
| [06:35:45] | Beirdo: | testing complete |
| [06:35:51] | Beirdo: | hey justinh .... |
| [06:35:52] | echosyp: | results? |
| [06:36:02] | duron23: | rileyp, I think the issue was as I said then, was with the kernel version, 2.6.38 which remove support for v4l devices completely |
| [06:36:11] | Beirdo: | I put the energizing of the relays backwards :( |
| [06:36:26] | Beirdo: | ie. 5V to the -, GND to the + |
| [06:36:35] | justinh: | oops |
| [06:36:46] | duron23: | and maverick uses 2.6.35 which still has support for v4l |
| [06:36:56] | Beirdo: | so, they wouldn't turn on... cut the traces, rewired (and with 5V relays), work perfectly. YAY |
| [06:36:58] | justinh: | Beirdo: take heart. our pcb layout guys make sillier mistakes all the tune |
| [06:37:01] | Beirdo: | nice CLICK |
| [06:37:12] | justinh: | tune? *time* |
| [06:37:15] | Beirdo: | I wasn't paying enough attention when it said "BOTTOM VIEW" |
| [06:37:25] | rileyp: | duron23, so its fixed? |
| [06:37:31] | duron23: | rileyp, now I can atleast record the tv |
| [06:37:41] | duron23: | rileyp, but can't play live tv |
| [06:37:54] | lapion: | duron23, I am still on lucid, natty has new kernel that doesn't support v4l, and the ubuntu repo mythtv doesn't work witht the new kernel for analog cards ( especially saa7134 cards) |
| [06:37:59] | justinh: | but.. changing distro cos you need a different kernel too? oh man, what has ubuntu turned people into? |
| [06:37:59] | Beirdo: | so one's plugged into my HDPVR, 5 others have been tested with it... and will be shipped out tomorrow |
| [06:38:01] | duron23: | rileyp, live tv playback is somewhat intermediate |
| [06:38:15] | rileyp: | duron23 well then its not a mythtv problem is it its a kernel problem |
| [06:38:24] | justinh: | linux isn't ready for dumbing down yet |
| [06:38:25] | lapion: | duron23, what device do you use for audio output ? |
| [06:38:36] | Beirdo: | with nice blue wirewrap wire soldered on the bottom :) |
| [06:38:47] | duron23: | lapion, yeah, that the issue I was earlier facing, and I have saa7134 (pinnacle analog pci pro ) |
| [06:38:59] | justinh: | Beirdo: but of course ;-) mind, red wire works better :-D |
| [06:39:05] | rileyp: | duron23 are recordings playing back perfectly |
| [06:39:07] | Beirdo: | I might give em a coat of 3M red insulating spray |
| [06:39:26] | Beirdo: | but that's a thought for tomorrow |
| [06:39:31] | duron23: | rileyp, yeah that's the reason I switched back to maverick, and yeah recordings are playing perfectly |
| [06:39:39] | Beirdo: | hehe, I like blue, dunno why |
| [06:39:42] | duron23: | lapion, ALSA:default |
| [06:39:43] | justinh: | Beirdo: bearing in mind people keep their hardware in silly places that might be a good idea |
| [06:39:46] | lapion: | duron23, select output device for as: alsa:pulse |
| [06:39:57] | Beirdo: | yeah |
| [06:39:58] | duron23: | where in backend ? |
| [06:40:01] | rileyp: | have a look at your frontend log to make sure that is the case with no time out errors |
| [06:40:02] | lapion: | frontend |
| [06:40:02] | Beirdo: | that's what I was thinking |
| [06:40:10] | Beirdo: | I have the spray |
| [06:40:17] | Beirdo: | just don't wanna do it tonight |
| [06:40:23] | justinh: | Beirdo: and for units going to PR :-P |
| [06:40:30] | Beirdo: | hehe |
| [06:40:34] | Beirdo: | or FL |
| [06:40:37] | Beirdo: | yeah |
| [06:40:42] | duron23: | lapion, ok |
| [06:40:45] | lapion: | duron23, backend the input device should be set to 32000 hz alsa:hw:0.1 no volume control |
| [06:41:07] | justinh: | honestly though, people changing distro to get a different kernel? eugh |
| [06:41:18] | Beirdo: | makes no sense to me |
| [06:41:25] | rileyp: | thats 48000 khz not 32 ??? |
| [06:41:39] | duron23: | justinh, yeah why not, you get support for newer devices |
| [06:41:54] | justinh: | duron23: but it's so easy to build a kernel yourself |
| [06:41:55] | lapion: | saa7134 has a weird output .. |
| [06:41:59] | duron23: | lapion, will try that |
| [06:42:13] | rileyp: | justinh everyone wajts latest and not so greatest without reading relase nots and then complain it dont work... |
| [06:42:14] | justinh: | duron23: and you can learn new things, be more of a master at linuxy stuff |
| [06:42:36] | duron23: | justinh, easy but the time it takes to compile, wht about that ? |
| [06:42:40] | justinh: | I just fear that ubuntu is turning people into dumb users |
| [06:42:51] | justinh: | duron23: on a modern system, not a big concern at all |
| [06:42:52] | lapion: | duron23, using pulseaudio gave me clicking audio |
| [06:43:11] | lapion: | justinh, you are so right.. |
| [06:43:14] | duron23: | lapion, hmm |
| [06:43:33] | lapion: | duron23, using alsa:pulse worked fine |
| [06:43:50] | lapion: | duron23, correction "works fine" |
| [06:44:18] | justinh: | I'd also argue that some of ubuntu's release version decisions are questionable. I mean, shipping pulseaudio in such a raw state, then being in a hurry to include a kernel where v4l was deprecated |
| [06:44:25] | lapion: | duron23, that's for the frontend |
| [06:45:17] | lapion: | well justinh kernel does support v4l2, only mythtv leans to heavy on v4l.. |
| [06:45:35] | duron23: | lapion, I tried specifying audio device that way (alsa:hw:0.1) yesterday, but everytime I got device busy error |
| [06:45:48] | duron23: | lapion, will try again and see |
| [06:45:53] | justinh: | sigh. this new product manager hasn't got a frickin clue |
| [06:46:27] | duron23: | lapion, hey it should be alsa:hw:0,1 or alsa:hw:0.1 ? |
| [06:46:41] | duron23: | lapion, common or dot after 0 ? |
| [06:46:51] | justinh: | we have this camera – well a bunch of cameras actually, with heavily screened cables that are expensive. he's after reducing the cost by using UTP cable. without also submitting the stuff to EMC testing again |
| [06:47:29] | justinh: | his idea of a test is to get a very long length of cable, lay it next to some power cables & see if the video looks ok still |

| [06:49:37] | lapion: | duron23, when faced with typo's try to correct.. |
| [06:50:12] | duron23: | lapion, no yesterday I try that |
| [06:50:15] | echosyp: | what would cause a the second tuner not to initialize properly? |
| [06:50:31] | justinh: | er.. look in dmesg? |
| [06:50:38] | duron23: | lapion, so though I was typing it wrong, and it shoulb dot not comma |
| [06:50:50] | duron23: | lapion, as said same error AudioIn Error: unknown or unsupported audio input device 'alsa:hw:3.0' |

| [06:52:09] | justinh: | echosyp: anyway this is more one for #linuxtv believe it or not |
| [06:52:09] | lapion: | but first find out what the device number is for you saa |
| [06:52:19] | duron23: | lapion, it should be tvtuner or the sound card ? |
| [06:52:31] | echosyp: | cool, i'll see what they know |
| [06:52:39] | lapion: | you have a pci, of a pcmcia card ? |
| [06:52:52] | justinh: | and yes I know that it's not always the quickest at getting an answer but that's the proper channel :-) |
| [06:53:04] | duron23: | lapion, pci |
| [06:53:38] | lapion: | duron23, I believe most pci-cards use an external cable to loop the audio |
| [06:53:58] | lapion: | duron23, most saa7134 based cards that is.. |
| [06:54:36] | duron23: | but from kernel 2.6 we can loop back audio with the external connector |
| [06:55:18] | justinh: | ugh radeon :-\ |
| [06:55:27] | justinh: | lapion: analogue tuners, yes |
| [06:55:37] | justinh: | and some saa7134 can do onboard audio capture |

| [07:15:06] | justinh: | ok, cheaper than leaving the appliance on all the time but hardly ideal |
| [07:15:24] | justinh: | as for PSU numbers.. it pays to spend a little more on a better, more efficient PSU |
| [07:16:19] | clever: | it helps to buy a kill-a-watt device and measure what its actualy using |

| [07:39:06] | justinh: | if you're using that crappy driver, STOP |
| [07:39:24] | justinh: | go install the propriatary driver & the problems should go away |
| [07:39:40] | justinh: | and before you go all "muh, but it's not open source" IT WORKS |
| [07:40:07] | duron23: | justinh, those drivers prevent me from installing lucid, so switched to maverick |
| [07:40:08] | justinh: | it works and allows video playback to be smooth and nice, whereas the nouveau driver... not so much |
| [07:40:20] | duron23: | justinh, I have nvidia driver |

| [10:14:20] | Muzer: | I tried running mythfilldatabase manually, many times, and it's still only got 2 days' worth of programmes (even less on some channels). |
| [10:14:33] | Muzer: | I use just EIT data |
| [10:16:53] | Muzer: | and the EIT is working fine – I've looked at it in my Freeview receivers |
| [10:17:23] | clever: | i dont think mythfilldatabase handles eit at all |
| [10:17:34] | Muzer: | how is EIT handled, then? |
| [10:17:39] | clever: | i believe mythbackend handles that when idle, it was an option in mythtv-setup |
| [10:17:50] | Muzer: | well, it's obviously not doing so :P |
| [10:17:58] | clever: | check the backend logs |
| [10:18:01] | Muzer: | I'll have a look in setup |
| [10:18:02] | Muzer: | that too |
| [10:18:26] | clever: | maybe turn on the eit logs, mythbackend -v eit |
| [10:20:46] | justinh: | mythfilldatabase will not have any effect with eit data |

| [10:21:15] | Muzer: | no idea how long that's since :P |
| [10:21:38] | Muzer: | but the Freeview EPG is normally an 8-day thing, I think, and it's got 2 days left on it, so that tells you abotu when the last successful update was |

| [10:38:36] | Muzer: | (rescanning's never worked reliably for me) |
| [10:40:46] | Muzer: | it gets a lock, then half the time it times out with only "possible channels" for some stupid reason |
| [10:41:03] | Muzer: | and then it scans the same channel twice quite often so I get a load of duplicates |

| [11:16:05] | xris (xris!~xris@xris.forevermore.net) has joined #mythtv-users | |
| [11:16:25] | mithran: | from my understanding using myth tv, we can use the internet to view tv channels, is that right? |
| [11:16:30] | justinh: | no |
| [11:17:04] | Muzer: | justinh: I got confused about how the RT stuff links up to the Freeview channels |
| [11:17:09] | Muzer: | and couldn't find a way to configure it |
| [11:17:14] | Muzer: | so I didn't use it in the end |
| [11:17:29] | Muzer: | 7 day EPG is enough for me, besides, and I don't mind about descriptions usually |
| [11:17:30] | justinh: | Muzer: I made the wiki entry quite nice, then somebody spoiled it |
| [11:17:40] | Muzer: | though I must admit the RT film reviews are pretty useful |
| [11:18:58] | Muzer: | I wish tuner card manufacturers included loop ports :P |
| [11:19:06] | Muzer: | (RF loop I mean) |
| [11:20:23] | mithran: | justinh: I have a 512Kbps connection, can I install and use mythtv, comfortably with that sort of a net connection? |
| [11:21:02] | exelnet_: | mithran: you won't need any net connection |
| [11:22:23] | mithran: | exelnet_: so do I need a cable then? |
| [11:22:25] | Muzer: | mithran: MythTV's normal source of TV is through a tuner card (terrestrial, cable or satellite) |
| [11:22:48] | exelnet_: | mithran: some plugins make it possible to view stuff like youtube, but its not meant to be used that way. mythtv is normally used with some kinf of tv card. |
| [11:23:15] | mithran: | oh ok, so is it a substitute for people with computers, but no tvs? |
| [11:23:49] | Muzer: | well, it can be, but also for PVR functionality (recording) |
| [11:24:03] | Muzer: | and it also works as a general media centre (though again, that's not its primary function) |
| [11:24:47] | mithran: | im sorry im a beginner, i thouht it was something you could use to stream television off the internet, for people who dont have a dish or cable, but have an internet connection. |
| [11:25:30] | Muzer: | depending on where you live you may just be able to do that via the web, but I don't know of any standalone applications that work well for that sort of thing |
| [11:26:18] | mithran: | thanks Muzer, will investigate |

| [11:37:33] | justinh: | considering that most digital SDTV is > 2Mbps (mpeg2), at 512kbps you'll be lucky to be able to watch anything full screen in comparable quality even taking into account more efficient compression |
| [11:41:19] | Muzer: | exactly |
| [11:41:41] | Muzer: | BBC iPlayer's 1Mb/s mode is poor quality as it is |
| [11:41:50] | mithran: | i watch all cricket matches, agreed in not too good quality, using my connection |
| [11:42:27] | justinh: | and for all those people singing about IPTV being some great free thing that'll replace aerials, dishes & cables – they're living in the clouds. The majority of IP delivered TV is via propriatary platforms and hardware |
| [11:42:57] | justinh: | whether that be Adobe Flash, Silverlight or indeed special set top boxes |
| [11:43:45] | justinh: | so rather than make everything 'free' IMHO it'll do exactly the opposite. The providers of content will be able to have much more control over what, how & when people use the content |
| [11:44:19] | mithran: | ok done a bit of investigating, so from what i understand now, you can pause rewind live tv, record other channels while watching pre-recorded/live tv, and you get a user guide, is there something i am missing? |

| [11:46:58] | justinh: | it's designed to be used with TV tuners (analogue, digital) and other capture devices |

| [11:49:16] | Muzer: | it's best to just stick to streaming stuff over the web |
| [11:49:20] | Muzer: | if you want internet TV |
| [11:49:31] | justinh: | if I remember right, XBMC has some plugins to watch streams from the internet. I don't know what kind of choice they offer – or whether they'll work where you are. That's another bad thing about 'internet TV', it doesn't mean you can watch anything, anywhere |
| [11:49:45] | Muzer: | as justinh said, the complete lack of standards for internet TV makes it very difficult to make one application to use them all ;P |

| [11:51:06] | mithran: | :) |
| [11:52:27] | justinh: | I'd love to believe that one day IP TV will become something great, but having seen the way everything is going I doubt it all very much. Consumers need to be more savvy & stop accepting restrictions like DRM. Heh, as if that's gonna happen |
| [11:52:35] | Muzer: | I would love to see someone make a decent internet TV frontend, but with the standards and encryption, it just isn't going to happen :P |
| [11:53:05] | mithran: | stop being so negative, well get there soon (in my newbie opinion) |
| [11:53:07] | justinh: | you probably could but it'd have to be closed source, and you'd need to enter into agreements with some providers which might bar you from using others |
| [11:53:16] | justinh: | not negative. Realistic |
| [11:53:24] | justinh: | look at Hulu.com as an example |

| [11:53:37] | Muzer: | but that's not legal in many countries |
| [11:53:48] | Muzer: | probably not in this one either, though I'm quite confused about exactly what the law is |
| [11:53:57] | justinh: | then look at iPlayer, then SeeSaw, 4OD, ITVPlayer... |
| [11:54:04] | Muzer: | yeah |
| [11:54:08] | Muzer: | iPlayer has plenty of frontends |
| [11:54:11] | Muzer: | but it's about the only one |
| [11:54:14] | justinh: | all need some propriatary tech to make sure the stream doesn't escape |
| [11:54:39] | Muzer: | (get_iplayer, iplayerdl until recently, and plugins for MythTV and XBMC, etc.) |
| [11:54:54] | Muzer: | on that note, the mythtv plugin's search feature appears broken |
| [11:54:55] | justinh: | streaming costs money. you have to make sure that nobody can escape paying |
| [11:54:59] | Muzer: | which makes it pretty much useless :P |
| [11:55:30] | justinh: | if that means putting advertising in the stream to make it 'free' at the point of use, fine |

| [11:56:16] | Muzer: | iPlayer doesn't, because it's licence fee funded, but the rest do |
| [11:56:34] | Muzer: | well, that's a point, I wonder if iPlayer IS directly funded by the licence fee or not... |
| [11:56:37] | justinh: | I get iplayer on cable :) |
| [11:56:39] | justinh: | it is |
| [11:56:51] | Muzer: | but you don't need a TV licence to view iPlayer, they say on their site |
| [11:57:01] | Muzer: | (but you do to watch BBC live over the internet) |
| [11:57:06] | justinh: | yup |
| [11:57:17] | justinh: | but it's definitely licence fee funded |
| [11:57:23] | Muzer: | yeah, Freesat does iPlaye |
| [11:57:24] | Muzer: | r |

| [11:59:33] | justinh: | they try to do way too much on those crappy 500Mhz RISC CPUs.. the OS is sitting under middleware, then the UI stuff is on top |

| [12:00:37] | Muzer: | no, it's not Java |
| [12:00:39] | Muzer: | or Python :P |
| [12:00:53] | Muzer: | yeah, it seems quite a good system actually |
| [12:01:02] | Muzer: | the Linux core is stored in a separate partition |
| [12:01:06] | justinh: | apparently the middleware is there so it can be cross-platform |
| [12:01:07] | Muzer: | so people have come up with replacements for it |
| [12:01:09] | Muzer: | which are pretty fun |
| [12:01:18] | Muzer: | like, they have FTP servers, ssh servers, etc. |
| [12:01:22] | justinh: | because they used to have different hardware all over the shop |

| [12:07:22] | justinh: | oh and that's without the image integratin turned on :P |
| [12:08:49] | Muzer: | does Myth handle radio cards? |
| [12:08:53] | justinh: | no |
| [12:09:09] | Muzer: | aw |
| [12:09:19] | justinh: | there used to be a plugin called mythfm but it never made it officially |
| [12:09:30] | Muzer: | does it still work? |
| [12:09:34] | justinh: | hell no |
| [12:09:42] | Muzer: | heh |
| [12:09:44] | justinh: | it was crap anyway, and tied up a tuner |
| [12:09:48] | Muzer: | ah |
| [12:10:05] | justinh: | wasn't done properly, i.e. with a new recording class & better integrated etc |
| [12:10:09] | Muzer: | hmm, on that topic, does Linux have any decent DAB applications yet? Wondering whether or not to get a DAB card... |
| [12:10:18] | justinh: | are there any DAB cards? |
| [12:10:27] | Muzer: | I assume so |
| [12:10:29] | justinh: | I remember there being one PCI card |
| [12:10:30] | Muzer: | DAB's been out for ages |
| [12:10:35] | justinh: | you may be assuming wrongly |
| [12:10:47] | justinh: | I used to have a Psion Wavefinder. It didn't really even work in windows |
| [12:11:07] | Muzer: | despite the low bitrates I quite like DAB |
| [12:11:10] | Muzer: | could do with a few more muxes |
| [12:11:30] | Muzer: | (or "ensembles" as they're called in DAB) |
| [12:11:58] | justinh: | could do with higher bitrates & less cruft |
| [12:12:19] | justinh: | stop trying to sell every damn digital thing with 3 figure channel numbers |
| [12:12:27] | Muzer: | more muxes would probably mean higher bitrate, hopefully at least :p |
| [12:12:33] | justinh: | no, I doubt it |
| [12:12:41] | justinh: | if you look at what happened to Freeview.. nah |
| [12:12:49] | Muzer: | Well, Freeview never got more muxes |
| [12:12:51] | Muzer: | it always had 6 |
| [12:13:01] | Muzer: | but yeah |
| [12:13:12] | justinh: | and yet they still managed to cram everything in to the max :-\ |
| [12:13:17] | Muzer: | heh |
| [12:13:24] | Muzer: | well, the PSB stuff is still reasonable quality |
| [12:13:29] | Muzer: | which is all that really matters IMHO |
| [12:13:32] | justinh: | anything live on ITV1 looks like Lego |
| [12:13:36] | Muzer: | well, having said that ITV's pretty crap |
| [12:13:36] | Muzer: | heh |
| [12:13:42] | Muzer: | but I never watch that :P |
| [12:14:01] | Muzer: | BBC Four is highest quality pre-DSO |
| [12:14:10] | Muzer: | (though that may change when they bring in the fifth stream) |
| [12:14:16] | justinh: | fifth?! |
| [12:14:20] | justinh: | WTH?! |
| [12:14:39] | Muzer: | well ,there WERE 5 before but one running at low quality |
| [12:14:43] | Muzer: | (the BBC Interactive stream) |
| [12:14:54] | Muzer: | they're offering up a third commercial stream now on Pre-DSO Mux B |
| [12:15:01] | justinh: | sigh |
| [12:15:14] | Muzer: | well, at least the BBC are getting money from it :P |
| [12:15:27] | Muzer: | (currently BBC Four/CBeebies, BBC Parliament, Sky Sports 1 and 2 are on it) |
| [12:15:29] | justinh: | they get money |
| [12:15:47] | justinh: | and they should kick that bastard Murdoch's channels right off |
| [12:15:51] | justinh: | and TUTV |
| [12:15:54] | Muzer: | heh |
| [12:15:56] | Muzer: | yeah |
| [12:16:16] | justinh: | and the utterly fricking useless MHEG crap like Rabbit & its variants |
| [12:16:23] | Muzer: | I think more to the point, on their HD satellite transponder they should kick off the encrypted-for-no-apparent-reason ITV1 Meridian HD channel :P |
| [12:16:37] | justinh: | get rid of all those, there'd be enough space for a whole other TV channel |
| [12:16:47] | Muzer: | yeah |
| [12:17:09] | Muzer: | I've never liked Teletext :P |
| [12:17:23] | Muzer: | (they're the company who owns pretty much all the MHEG crap) |
| [12:17:45] | justinh: | apparently Maplin sell a USB DAB tuner |
| [12:17:51] | Muzer: | ooh |
| [12:17:56] | Muzer: | got to go now |
| [12:18:07] | justinh: | there are drivers in the kernel for some DAB devices I think |
| [12:18:15] | justinh: | whether it'd be that one or not, YMMV |

| [15:28:01] | ** wagnerrp dodges the impending fish ** | |
| [15:28:11] | sphery: | wagnerrp: neither, really... I'm not going to add any mythproto changes for it when switching to the new schema (partly because I think we need to do data access using something other than mythproto--if nothing else the services api stuff) |
| [15:28:31] | Beirdo: | hehe |
| [15:28:43] | Beirdo: | had to be up early today to deploy a hotfix |
| [15:28:51] | Beirdo: | thankfully, I can do that from home |
| [15:29:03] | lapion (lapion!~axion@axion.xs4all.nl) has joined #mythtv-users | |
| [15:29:09] | sphery: | but eventually when we start the transition to a data server, we can work it in (don't think the physical storage layout is really that important--after all, the data server can abstract the physical storage however makes sense) |
| [15:29:13] | wagnerrp: | sphery: youre saying have the frontend access stuff through the services API |
| [15:29:31] | sphery: | I'm saying clients access stuff through something that's not mythproto |
| [15:29:47] | sphery: | but services api is one such option |
| [15:30:18] | sphery: | at least not "traditional" mythproto with []:[] stringlists |
| [15:31:26] | sphery: | simonckenyon: channel number is irrelevant to recording... callsign says "treat the channels the same" |
| [15:32:12] | sphery: | channel number is only relevant for live tv (as a means of saying, "tune to this channel and only this channel") |
| [15:34:28] | wagnerrp: | sphery: hadnt even considered that |
| [15:34:43] | wagnerrp: | limit protocol access to only those methods the frontend actually needs |
| [15:34:49] | wagnerrp: | run everything else through something else |
| [15:36:45] | sphery: | yeah, basically I'm just thinking that since we now have a protocol channel and a data channel (Qt-MySQL driver connection to MySQL), the same makes sense later--mainly from the standpoint of not knowing how much data will need to be piped around through the data channel (and whether it would get in the way of commands/responses) |
| [15:37:06] | wagnerrp: | use the xml/json stuff as the data channel |
| [15:37:13] | wagnerrp: | and leave mythproto for commands? |
| [15:37:17] | sphery: | technically, though, we have multiple data channels (since we have multiple mysql connections), but if we need that, we could do the same |
| [15:37:25] | sphery: | yeah, that's one possibility |
| [15:37:35] | sphery: | or the protobuf approach (that I still like :) |

Not sure how many "standard" objects there would be, but I can imagine them covering most of the actual data usage/transfer (and allowing abstraction from physical storage format) and using the per-table objects only where necessary |
| [15:39:25] | iamlindoro: | protobuf makes me wary |
| [15:39:39] | iamlindoro: | Aside from the ten ton gorilla, it doesn't appear to have that broad an acceptance |

| [15:40:40] | sphery: | iamlindoro: and it's not XML/JSON, which "I know that, so I can just use it directly--without ever learning anything about MythTV or its data" |
| [15:40:43] | sphery: | :) |
| [15:40:54] | iamlindoro: | Great, it's the nuppelvideo of data transfer |
| [15:40:55] | sphery: | i.e. just like people already know SQL, so they can edit DBs directly |
| [15:41:39] | sphery: | though it seems it's actually very well used from what I've seen |
| [15:41:43] | iamlindoro: | sphery: I don't think we should shy away from using something standard just because people will abuse it |
| [15:41:58] | iamlindoro: | it's cutting off one's nose to spite one's face IMO |
| [15:42:00] | sphery: | that's not a "just because" |
| [15:42:10] | sphery: | it's actually a better protocol for data transfer than xml/json |
| [15:42:24] | wagnerrp: | well... because its a binary protocol |
| [15:42:27] | iamlindoro: | At the cost of comprehensibility |
| [15:42:29] | wagnerrp: | which means its more efficient |
| [15:42:36] | sphery: | significantly lighter, flexible, type safe |
| [15:42:44] | wagnerrp: | but that also means its statically defined and less flexible |
| [15:43:09] | sphery: | it's statically defined at compile time, which is fine |
| [15:43:51] | sphery: | especially if we have a fallback to table-objects |
| [15:44:11] | Beirdo: | and it's hardly non-standard. All of google uses it, pretty much |

| [15:44:37] | iamlindoro: | Beirdo: "all of google" is not a compelling argument, that's one entity |
| [15:44:44] | sphery: | anyway, the point is, I don't want []:[] for data access when we create a data server |
| [15:44:55] | wagnerrp: | ill agree with you that far |
| [15:44:58] | sphery: | that's /bad/ because it's just strings, not type safe, and very dangerous |
| [15:45:26] | sphery: | at that point, we're missing the whole data integrity/validation benefit of creating a data server |
| [15:45:30] | wagnerrp: | but i also agree with captm that at least for debugging purposes, a text protocol is very useful |
| [15:45:54] | iamlindoro: | I don't want to use mythproto style data transfer either-- I just happen to think that a comprehensible and nearly universally used standard trumps one which is slightly more efficient but less broadly used or comprehensible |
| [15:46:43] | kormoc: | what's the alternative? |
| [15:47:16] | iamlindoro: | JSON v. protobuf |
| [15:47:18] | iamlindoro: | I prefer JSON |
| [15:47:43] | kormoc: | Ahh |
| [15:48:44] | Beirdo: | the other good thing about protobuf over JSON (which is also a decent option)... it will take less CPU, as we don't need to marshal it in and out of text repeatedly |
| [15:49:05] | kormoc: | Can't we build in both and test? I'd imagine we'd be doing compression for JSON so over the wire would be smaller anyway? |
| [15:49:16] | Beirdo: | it's not "slightly more" efficient, it's considerably more efficient |
| [15:49:47] | wagnerrp: | Beirdo: clearly binary protocols are more efficient than text ones, but do we have the need? |
| [15:49:56] | iamlindoro: | Beirdo: I'd need to see hard numbers before taking your word on that |
| [15:50:04] | wagnerrp: | the only time were sending gobs of data would be pulling the full list of recordings or videos |
| [15:50:16] | iamlindoro: | We're not dealing with gigabytes or even more than a few megabytes of data at any given time |
| [15:50:23] | Beirdo: | or the disk full, or the previews, or... |
| [15:50:26] | wagnerrp: | in which case, wouldnt it be better to use a segmented list if it becomes a problem? |
| [15:50:41] | wagnerrp: | previews are already sent as binary data |
| [15:50:44] | Beirdo: | having to parse in text is slower than in binary data |
| [15:50:53] | Beirdo: | no, they are sent base64 |
| [15:50:56] | Beirdo: | or the like |
| [15:50:57] | wagnerrp: | at most we miight base64 themm |
| [15:51:06] | wagnerrp: | but how much time does that actually take/ |
| [15:51:10] | Beirdo: | which is fine if you need text |
| [15:51:47] | kormoc: | I personally like protobuf and think it's the better solution, but we should be able to write the protocol searilizar as a modular and be able to write both fairly easily, no? |
| [15:52:15] | Beirdo: | now that sounds like a good idea |
| [15:52:33] | Beirdo: | the one downfall with protobuf... not well supported in PHP, for instance |
| [15:52:45] | Beirdo: | JSON is a good compromise |
| [15:52:52] | wagnerrp: | which is why making something modular would be a big plus |
| [15:52:56] | sphery: | yep |
| [15:53:00] | wagnerrp: | the client could then define what format they want to talk in |
| [15:53:10] | sphery: | and why my only statement was "something not []:[]" |

| [17:56:06] | wagnerrp: | no, you dont use the frontend to transcode |
| [17:56:17] | wagnerrp: | you use the frontend to add an entry in the database |
| [17:56:29] | Batshua: | ah. |
| [17:56:32] | wagnerrp: | the jobqueue running as a thread inside mythbackend runs tasks defined in the database |
| [17:56:42] | Batshua: | the logs are in the frontend, so I figured it was the frontend. |

| [18:10:09] | wagnerrp: | if thats a jobqueue status, rather than an error code |
| [18:10:26] | wagnerrp: | that means the transcode instance decided to restart itself multiple times |

| [18:22:35] | dsmith2048: | looking at the backend log I get several hundred of these: |

| [18:23:14] | dsmith2048: | the problem wasn't so bad in 0.23 w/ubuntu 10.10. |

| [18:23:56] | dsmith2048: | foolishly upgraded ubuntu to 11. |
| [18:24:15] | wagnerrp: | likely a side effect of whatever the mythbuntu patch to re-enable V4L support does |
| [18:24:23] | dsmith2048: | now using the mythbuntu repos hoping it would solve it, but no. |
| [18:24:35] | dsmith2048: | i'm not compiling tho. |
| [18:25:06] | wagnerrp: | what does compiling have anything to do with? |
| [18:25:39] | dsmith2048: | you mentioned a patch. i do compile others like ardour. |
| [18:26:54] | dsmith2048: | soooooo. do you know of any card configurations that might fix? |
| [18:27:14] | dsmith2048: | thanks for helping so promptly |
| [18:28:03] | namenick: | Does anybody here know anything about installing "Consumer IR" on a motherboard? |
| [18:28:32] | namenick: | My case does not have mounting spots for an IR receiver; is that a problem? |
| [18:28:49] | namenick: | ("Does IR need to be line-of-sight") |
| [18:28:58] | sailerboy: | afaik |
| [18:29:48] | namenick: | my motherboard has "IR headers", but if I would need to saw to install IR, I think I'll try something else first. |
| [18:30:33] | sailerboy: | you don't need to saw, you could probably just glue it down to the top of the case |
| [18:30:35] | sailerboy: | or soemthing |
| [18:30:47] | sailerboy: | the recievers can be pretty small |
| [18:31:59] | sailerboy: | if you wanted another option though, this is pretty well supported |

| [18:32:18] | Beirdo: | no |
| [18:32:27] | Beirdo: | this is the main channel. |
| [18:32:29] | sailerboy: | dsmith2048, what type of question? |
| [18:32:39] | namenick: | humm, maybe the side. I'd still need to get the appropriate sender/receivers, & figure out whether this is a plug-in job or more involved. |
| [18:32:42] | dsmith2048: | problem with ivtv |
| [18:32:51] | Beirdo: | #mythtv is for development/developer use |
| [18:32:55] | sailerboy: | namenick, if you get the remote i pointed you to, it's mostly a plug and play |

| [18:33:00] | sailerboy: | assuming you have mythbuntu |
| [18:33:01] | dsmith2048: | hangs when changing channels every time |
| [18:33:05] | sailerboy: | i cant say anything else |
| [18:33:10] | sailerboy: | about other mythtv distros |
| [18:33:23] | sailerboy: | if there is an LIRC preset for media center remotes, it'll be plug and play for the most part |

| [18:35:12] | dsmith2048: | it started when moving up to 0.24 and 5. |
| [18:37:12] | namenick: | which might be worth trying. The "CIR" headers solution would have the longest lead time. I was thinking it would be "cleaner" to have everything flush inside of the case, but maybe that won't work. |

| [21:44:02] | JEDIDIAH__: | mythtv doesn't use the usual ~/.lircrc file. It keeps it in ~/.mythtv |

| [21:44:33] | JEDIDIAH__: | ...and all the codes are right? |
| [21:44:48] | JEDIDIAH__: | ...and you've restarted mythfrontend since the last time you changed lircrc? |
