[00:00:04] wagnerrp: with no need for the patch
[00:00:21] ** wagnerrp goes back to reworking mythwikiscripts **
[00:00:48] jya: jk90090_: having said that, the changes won't fix your problem
[00:01:05] jya: I've fixed some stuff related to audio packets beeing deemed too old
[00:01:19] jk90090_: roger
[00:01:24] jya: but nothing to do with missing packets
[00:01:55] jya: would need a network sniffer..
[00:02:14] jya: luckily my switch let me duplicate all traffic from a port (my ATV) to another
[00:03:10] jk90090_: I'm on two HP network switches, it might allow similar but I've never need to know
[00:03:25] wagnerrp: there are ways around it if they dont
[00:04:00] wagnerrp: you can broadcast fraudulent ARP data that will cause the data to get cloned
[00:04:03] jk90090_: w: I assume I could just load up a packet logger on my ATV
[00:04:22] wagnerrp: theres some utility built into wireshark that can do that
[00:06:30] ** awalls built tcpdump to run on his Asus WL-500g once upon a time **
[00:07:31] jk90090_: sure, tcpdump certainly can be apt-get from the ATV
[00:07:57] jya: tcpdump won't help out of the box if you want to sniff packet between your iPhone and an ATV
[00:08:18] awalls: WL-500g is my crummy wirelss router
[00:08:34] wagnerrp: (and integrated switch)
[00:08:42] awalls: tcpdump could sniff all the interfaces at once
[00:09:33] awalls: the crud coming from the big bad internet interface was incredibly weird, BTW
[00:10:20] awalls: Windows messenger spam with antivirus hoaxes.
[00:10:57] ** jya wondering where justinh when you need him to test something **
[00:13:07] wagnerrp: my guess is sleeping
[00:13:10] wagnerrp: its like 3AM there
[00:13:20] wagnerrp: erm.. 1AM
[00:13:26] jk90090_: jya: The API version you mentioned, I checked the ebuild and it is from commit f73dbda4d44e3694c1374c2332ddfb80e2e7f355 , which is definitely from March 29th. Is that really unexpected?
[00:13:29] jya: where does he live? UK?
[00:13:35] wagnerrp: aye
[00:13:50] jya: always sleeping those poms ..
[00:13:58] jk90090_: ha
[00:14:08] jk90090_: maybe he's playing xbox
[00:14:11] jk90090_: MW3
[00:14:13] jk90090_: ;-)
[00:14:37] dave_ (dave_!~dave@69.172.156.235) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:16:35] dave_: http://pastebin.com/GhqRHR6n --> my mythtranscode log is full of errors, what's going on? i haven't changed any of the settings from the defaults. shouldn't the default settings like... work?
[00:17:52] wagnerrp: seems as if it cannot open the file for whatever reason
[00:18:09] dave_ is now known as bcgrown
[00:18:24] wagnerrp: i would check to see why the backend never started recording
[00:18:49] emmanuelux (emmanuelux!~emmanuel@2a01:e35:2e4d:9010:21d:60ff:fe0e:b818) has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
[00:18:49] bcgrown: it recorded fine
[00:19:21] bcgrown: i was just went to an old recording in mythweb and pushed the transcode button
[00:19:35] wagnerrp: well then youre looking at the wrong log file
[00:19:45] wagnerrp: as that is not what happened in that transcode instance
[00:20:01] wagnerrp: that transcode instance is one where you attempted to do an HLS transcode of a livetv session
[00:20:17] bcgrown: oh
[00:20:22] bcgrown: that was mythtranscode.log
[00:20:36] kormoc (kormoc!~kormoc@mythtv/developer/kormoc) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:20:36] Mode for #mythtv-users by ChanServ!ChanServ@services. : +v kormoc
[00:20:51] bcgrown: where should I be looking? I just noticed that the backend status page still says the job is queued, 10 minutes later...
[00:21:18] wagnerrp: if the job is queued, it has not started yet, so there will be no log
[00:21:40] wagnerrp: either your queue is filled by another task
[00:21:41] bcgrown: wagnerrp: but it seems to be stuck in the queue. there are no other jobs happening
[00:21:52] wagnerrp: or your queue is misconfigured, such that no backend is allowed to run that task
[00:22:10] bcgrown: ohhh actually now i remember, i disabled transcoding, because it didn't work
[00:22:13] bcgrown: doh
[00:22:24] bcgrown: and i didn't want it mangling my recordings
[00:24:50] emmanuelux (emmanuelux!~emmanuel@2a01:e35:2e4d:9010:21d:60ff:fe0e:b818) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:25:27] jya: jk90090_: in my search to get a better doc on the airplay protoocl, I found this: https://github.com/albertz/shairport
[00:25:34] jya: do you mind testing it and report ?
[00:25:44] jk90090_: sure, let me look at it
[00:26:45] bcgrown: wagnerrp: Apr 17 17:25:10 myth mythtranscode[4193]: E CoreContext NuppelVideoRecorder.cpp:610 (SetupAVCodecVideo) NVR(): Unable to open FFMPEG/mpeg4 codec
[00:27:13] wagnerrp: do you actually want to encode to ASP/NUV?
[00:27:14] bcgrown: i have ffmpeg installed and the package description in Synaptic says it supports MPEG4...
[00:27:22] bcgrown: no
[00:27:27] wagnerrp: mythtv does not use ffmpeg
[00:27:29] bcgrown: that was the default, i think
[00:27:36] wagnerrp: it uses its own internal libraries
[00:27:41] wagnerrp: (and its own internal copy of ffmpeg)
[00:27:46] bcgrown: hmm i should check the transcode settings again
[00:27:53] wagnerrp: there is no default profile for 'lossless'
[00:27:55] wagnerrp: you have to make one
[00:27:56] bcgrown: but regardless, shouldn't that work?
[00:28:06] wagnerrp: it should, dont know why it wouldnt
[00:29:55] bcgrown: this is one thing that's always confused me... when would a recording profile other than "Default" ever be chosen by the backend?
[00:30:17] wagnerrp: when you specify it in the recording rule
[00:30:21] bcgrown: especially for a firewire input, that has no options anyway
[00:30:28] jya: bcgrown: whenever you set your recording rule to use a different profile
[00:30:57] wagnerrp: for a firewire input, even with no options, the recording mechanism requires a profile be defined anyway
[00:31:11] bcgrown: wagnerrp: but there's no point having multiple profiles, is there?
[00:31:44] wagnerrp: for firewire, no
[00:32:48] jk90090_: jya: hmm, looks like this need ipv6 to be configured
[00:33:08] jya: no… from the code, it's an option
[00:33:08] wagnerrp: no
[00:33:28] wagnerrp: ipv4 and ipv6 addresses are configured independently
[00:33:29] gratuit (gratuit!~mcneill@pdpc/supporter/student/gratuit) has quit (Quit: Lost terminal)
[00:33:36] jya: jk90090_: and from your earlier log, your pc is ipv6 no?
[00:33:47] jk90090_: No ;-)
[00:33:51] jya: wagnerrp: that's in regards to this: https://github.com/albertz/shairport
[00:33:55] wagnerrp: jya: he only had the localhost address specified in use
[00:34:25] jya: ah yeah, now that I recall he's using 0.25-rc it's not going to matter
[00:34:36] wagnerrp: what's not?
[00:35:00] wagnerrp: -rc means hes not running yesterday's patch that makes it not matter
[00:35:08] jk90090_: actually, looking at my system it has ipv6 addresses at least defined, so I'll give it a whirl anyways
[00:35:54] jk90090_: Wagner: I just finished today's git compile
[00:36:00] wagnerrp: jk90090_: there are two independent settings for ipv4 and ipv6, and the two modes are processed independently for what addresses to listen on
[00:36:03] jya: there's code in there for ipv4, IPV6 needs to be explicitely set
[00:36:28] wagnerrp: if one is set, it will listen on that and localhost (or just localhost if it is set to localhost)
[00:36:46] jk90090_: ugh, I hate database schema changes
[00:36:46] wagnerrp: if one is not set, it will listen on localhost, plus all private network addresses found on the system
[00:37:06] bcgrown: just tried it again... got this: Apr 17 17:36:01 myth mythtranscode[4721]: E CoreContext recordingprofile.cpp:164 (addSelection) SampleRate: Attempted to add a rate 44100 Hz, which is not in the list of allowed rates.
[00:37:12] jk90090_: for god's sake I wish this didn't happen twice in 17 days
[00:37:13] jya: jk90090_: don't run master !
[00:37:16] bcgrown: and this: Apr 17 17:36:01 myth mythtranscode[4721]: E CoreContext NuppelVideoRecorder.cpp:610 (SetupAVCodecVideo) NVR(): Unable to open FFMPEG/mpeg4 codec
[00:37:25] bcgrown: that was with the "autodetect from mpeg2" profile
[00:37:30] bcgrown: encoding into mpeg4
[00:37:33] wagnerrp: master has updated, 0.25 still runs the same schema as your -rc build
[00:37:48] jk90090_: jya: but then I don't get those juicy fixes you create right ;-)
[00:37:57] jya: jk90090_: for raop you do
[00:38:04] jya: because I've committed it there too
[00:38:07] wagnerrp: you need to specify --version=0.25 to specify that you want the 0.25-fixes build
[00:38:20] jya: and all the changes to raop were made before 0.25 was released
[00:38:21] jk90090_: no I mean if I *dont* run master then I dont
[00:38:25] wagnerrp: otherwise, it assumes trunk
[00:39:01] jk90090_: ugh
[00:39:13] jk90090_: I didn't notice it pull 0.26
[00:39:16] jk90090_: hrm
[00:41:02] jk90090_: pulling again, and recompiling. I'm also pulling in the requisite libraries for the shairport
[00:42:27] bcgrown: wagnerrp: any ideas why my transcoding is borked?
[00:43:00] wagnerrp: nope
[00:43:32] bcgrown: :(
[00:43:44] bcgrown: how can i tell which profile it's trying to use
[00:45:03] wagnerrp: if you ran through the frontend, it will use the one you told it
[00:45:15] wagnerrp: if you run through mythweb, it will use the default specified by that recording rule
[00:45:42] bcgrown: oh, there's my problem possibly
[00:46:17] Unguided1: wagnerrp: Can i run 0.25 in a bsd jail or no?
[00:46:20] dewman (dewman!~rob@96-35-84-55.dhcp.bycy.mi.charter.com) has quit (Quit: Ex-Chat)
[00:47:02] wagnerrp: i do, and have for years
[00:47:15] wagnerrp: that build image i sent you was a jail
[00:47:31] wagnerrp: however for certain things, you require a real network interface
[00:47:43] wagnerrp: and not the restricted one you have access to through the jail
[00:48:00] wagnerrp: which in my case, required a custom kernel with the vimage driver
[00:48:34] wagnerrp: and a custom jail manager that applied certain options during the startup and configuration of the jail
[00:48:46] wagnerrp: to provide it with a virtual network interface on a dedicated stack
[00:48:58] Unguided1: I know. Thats what got me looking at bsd. so that is not much of an option to using the jail without the custom kernel?
[00:49:01] bcgrown: i forget, how do i change the recording schedule defaults in mythweb?
[00:49:07] wagnerrp: specifically, it was needed for UPNP to work, as well as the autodetection for the HDHomeRun
[00:49:29] wagnerrp: normal operation is just fine inside a normal jail
[00:49:46] wagnerrp: the problem is only for things that perform autodetection, and thus need strange access to the network
[00:50:11] wagnerrp: in other words... unicast works fine, multicast and broadcast do not
[00:50:15] jk90090_: wagnerrp: script is failing using --version btw, trying to debug why
[00:50:35] Unguided1: If i assigned my primes by ip in 0.25, I should be ok shouldnt I?
[00:50:56] wagnerrp: should be, yes
[00:51:06] wagnerrp: i switched to the virtual network stack around 0.23 or so
[00:51:22] wagnerrp: when there was an issue with the hdhomerun drivers that prevented proper use when defining by IP address
[00:51:31] VManiac16 (VManiac16!~Unknown@69.4.155.83) has joined #mythtv-users
[00:51:50] wagnerrp: since i went through all the effort of getting it working in the first place, i never bothered to convert back
[00:52:12] Unguided1: That will at least get me by until the bsd port is done
[00:52:12] jk90090_: jya: running shairport, seeing requesting resend on some packets
[00:52:24] jya: but does the audio drop out?
[00:52:45] jya: what I'm interesting in knowing, is if audio is good there
[00:53:06] jk90090_: but Zero stuttering
[00:53:14] jya: ok cool
[00:53:21] jk90090_: far less resend requests than I was seeing in myth logs
[00:53:36] jya: probably just a coincidence
[00:54:07] jk90090_: but I now have a nice little tool running on my backend ;-)
[00:55:07] bcgrown: how do i change the recording schedule defaults in mythweb?
[00:55:08] Computer_Czar (Computer_Czar!~Unknown@69.4.155.83) has quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds)
[00:55:17] bcgrown: i.e. i want to change the default transcoder
[00:55:29] wagnerrp: "Schedule Recordings"
[00:55:39] wagnerrp: note, the default is applied at the time of recording
[00:55:40] jk90090_: I know you can do it for each recording schedule
[00:55:46] wagnerrp: and that option will not alter existing recordings
[00:55:47] Unguided1: wagnerrp: Do you recommend running in a jail all the time or no?
[00:56:13] wagnerrp: Unguided1: i do out of convenience
[00:56:28] jk90090_: bcgrown: I assume you're asking for the convince of new schedules you create?
[00:56:28] wagnerrp: it lets me snapshot things when running updates
[00:56:35] wagnerrp: so i can roll back if needed
[00:56:50] wagnerrp: as well as clone it off for testing other versions or branches
[00:57:29] wagnerrp: i actually run nearly everything in a jail
[00:57:31] bcgrown: jk90090_: yes, right now everything is being set to use the High Quality transcoder, but I want it on Autodetect
[00:57:35] wagnerrp: xchat is currently being run in one
[00:57:59] wagnerrp: and theyre all built off a tree of cloned ZFS directories
[00:58:29] wagnerrp: i.e. base jail gets cloned for mysql server, apache, and base with X
[00:58:54] wagnerrp: base with X gets cloned for terminal server (xpra and xchat), and base with mythtv
[00:58:58] jk90090_: bcgrown: for schedules you've already created, then you go to "Recordings Schedule" and select each one, choose advanced options, and change the transcoder. An easier way of course is an sql command
[00:59:11] bcgrown: i don't speak sql
[00:59:18] wagnerrp: base with mythtv gets cloned for my backend, the buildbot, and test jails for 0.23, 0.24, 0.25, and master
[00:59:41] bcgrown: Could you hook me up? also how do I change it for recordings that have already been recorded?
[00:59:52] Unguided1: Great idea. I didnt think of the roll back issue or the snapshots. Kind of like vbox but on real hardware. Nice. I want to use my server for mythv, file serving, samba, movies music etc.
[00:59:59] wagnerrp: maybe once a year, i tear the whole thing down and rebuilt if all from scratch
[01:00:22] jk90090_: bcgrown: Right, so you're going to have to do it the long way: Recordings Schedule -> select a schedule (click the title) -> Unhide the Advanced Options (if hidden) and change the Transcoder dropdown
[01:00:57] bcgrown: jk90090_: will that change it for existing recordings?
[01:01:00] jk90090_: bcgrown: for existing records, I don't know if myth web will let you. I know you can do it with sql
[01:01:04] wagnerrp: jail+zfs basically gets you all the management niceties that people want out of virtualization, without actually having to resort to the overhead of virtualization
[01:01:06] bcgrown: :(
[01:01:29] jk90090_: I don't see a way in my mythweb
[01:02:04] wagnerrp: and if you dont actually need to run different kernels for different things, there is little need to actually do virtualization
[01:02:23] Unguided1: im gonna make an 8tb zfs pool running on a usb 3.0 external box for easy upgrading. I figured that out. Like I said you are the one that turned me on to bsd after you told me freenas was nanobsd
[01:02:57] ** wagnerrp does not like USB **
[01:03:12] jk90090_: Unguided: USB, wow, you're bolder than I am
[01:03:20] wagnerrp: i know 3.0 is a completely different beast from 1.1/2.0, but... i just cant get over that hatred
[01:03:56] wagnerrp: i dont understand what an external USB box is going to get you in terms of easy upgrading
[01:04:17] jk90090_: My esata array has worked out ok so far, unsure how a USB3 array would be
[01:05:05] Unguided1: True. With bsd you can just replace the drive one at a time allowing for rebuild in between
[01:05:30] sphery: wagnerrp: is it just me or does the direct link to where to find the hacked key for raop in http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/AirTunes/AirPlay seem wrong to you, too?
[01:06:29] sphery: I mean, at that point, we're basically telling users exactly what to do--so we might as well just ship it already in place
[01:06:30] Unguided1: wagnerrp: Plus with usb 3.0 it is 6 gbps over four drives instead of 3.0 or 6.0 per drive. I didnt think of that either.
[01:06:41] wagnerrp: ive got no problem with it there
[01:07:19] sphery: I'd be a lot happier if there were at least some disclaimer saying that it's use may be illegal in some areas
[01:07:20] jk90090_: Wagner: Does the log cleanup python do any cleanup of the database logging table? I haven't looked at it thoroughly
[01:07:29] wagnerrp: Unguided1: im not talking about bandwidth, i just dont know why you would opt for an external usb box
[01:07:35] bcgrown (bcgrown!~dave@69.172.156.235) has quit (Quit: Leaving)
[01:07:38] wagnerrp: jk90090_: no, file logs only
[01:07:44] sphery: jk90090_: mythtv does cleanup of database tables
[01:07:46] wagnerrp: database is automatically cleaned up after two weeks
[01:07:47] jya: jk90090_: so with that application, you see no error in the audio playback with your device?
[01:07:59] sphery: automatically (and can't be disabled--so no worries on that)
[01:08:01] jya: what timezone are you in ?
[01:08:12] jk90090_: jya: only "requesting resend on 2 packets (port 63833)"
[01:08:28] jk90090_: jya: PST
[01:08:31] jya: jk90090_: and no dropout ?
[01:08:35] jk90090_: nope
[01:08:48] jk90090_: not that I could easily hear
[01:08:50] jya: so it's 6PM for you, what time do you go to bed?
[01:09:12] jk90090_: after 10 sometime
[01:09:20] Unguided1: wagnerrp: I just thought it would be easier to upgrade down the road. Guess I should have thought that through
[01:09:30] jk90090_: depends on my interest
[01:09:56] wagnerrp: Unguided1: very little difficulty in using hotswap bays
[01:10:04] jya: jk90090_: 10PM ? hum… may not have finished rewriting the RAOP server by then :(
[01:10:11] jya: 4 hours is a short time
[01:10:13] wagnerrp: only slightly more difficulty if using a case with side-loaded drives
[01:10:27] jk90090_: I'll be around tomorrow until 7pm PST too
[01:10:49] Unguided1: True
[01:10:59] jk90090_: so don't drive yourself crazy tongiht
[01:12:09] jya: jk90090_: so audio drop out have been giving my the crap too :)
[01:12:22] jk90090_: heheh

[01:16:08] jk90090_: yeah, you should fix the RAOP server first so you have something to listen to while you code the profile editor ;-)
[01:17:06] jya: it's not the profile editor I'm worried about, is that you can only have one active entry used during playback
[01:17:27] jya: I want to be able to have one profile that says "Hardware Accelerated"

[01:17:55] jk90090: wagner: so the script does not like an existing build file being in place of the same name, it just ends up leaving a zero byte file in replacement
[01:18:47] jk90090: the build rebuild script I mean
[01:20:16] jk90090: I'll see if I can narrow down why and post a message later to save some hassles. I know you want to replace it entirely still

[01:29:14] bcgrown: Is there any way to make the ff/rewind more accurate? It's always a couple seconds off when it resumes playback
[01:29:45] Unguided1: wagnerrp: what are you using for zfs?
[01:30:00] wagnerrp: what do you mean?
[01:30:02] jk90090: bcgrown: you can adjust the ff/rewind seconds
[01:30:07] wagnerrp: freebsd 9.0
[01:30:47] jk90090: not sure what you mean by it's a couple seconds off though, off compared to what?
[01:31:47] jya: jk90090: that shairplay stuff works great.. and there's volume control too
[01:32:32] jk90090: wagnerrp: --version=0.25 isn't sticking it seems, mythtv_version is coming out as v0.26 still .. hohum
[01:32:45] skd5aner: jya: shareplay?
[01:32:52] bcgrown: jk90090: Compared to the frame that's shown when it's paused. Makes it really hard to get to a specific spot. Is ff/rewind reposition amount the setting you're talking about?
[01:33:30] jya: skd5aner: https://github.com/albertz/shairport
[01:33:48] jk90090: jya: yeah, good stuff

[01:34:26] skd5aner: jya: hmmm, I'll have to give it a test and see if it accepts streams from itunes (As it claims in the readme)
[01:34:37] jya: let me try actually

[01:34:54] jya: that would be an interesting test, because it would run on the same machine, one in a VM
[01:35:18] jk90090: jya: it does!
[01:35:29] jya: yeah !

[01:35:42] jya: it takes longer to start than the myth one
[01:35:43] skd5aner: it does, as in "itunes does stream"?
[01:35:49] jya: yep
[01:35:52] jya: no error
[01:35:54] skd5aner: sweeeet
[01:35:58] Unguided1: wagnerrp: I thought that was what you told me. I only went pc bsd b/c of lack of knowledge
[01:36:04] jya: well… I know what I'm going to do today !
[01:36:11] jya: was supposed to work but eh...
[01:36:28] ** skd5aner chants: "J Y A, J Y A, J Y A" **
[01:36:41] skd5aner: no pressure or anything ;)
[01:37:07] jk90090: maybe a little
[01:37:24] skd5aner: Unguided1: you are running BSD because that's what wagnerrp runs?
[01:38:08] skd5aner: Unguided1: and, you shouldn't be running BSD for mythtv anyway – much easier to run linux, or a mythtv distro
[01:38:39] jk90090: he also wants to run ZFS
[01:38:40] wagnerrp: im running bsd because... thats just what ive always used
[01:38:42] wagnerrp: not sure his reasons
[01:38:56] jk90090: and I guess wants it native?
[01:39:21] wagnerrp: well i was using zfs before it was even an option on linux
[01:39:33] bcgrown (bcgrown!~androirc@69.172.156.235) has quit (Quit: AndroIRC - Android IRC Client ( http://www.androirc.com ))
[01:39:34] wagnerrp: or you mean Unguided1
[01:39:38] jk90090: I meant Unguided1
[01:39:41] skd5aner: wagnerrp: yea, BSD was my intro to *nix circa ~2000
[01:40:08] Unguided1: jk90090 got it right. I want zfs plus a jail + zfs = virtual machine. Thanks wagnerrp
[01:40:11] skd5aner: wagnerrp: I used to know way more about it than linux, but it's been 7 years since I've touched it... I'd be a bit rusty to say the least
[01:41:11] Unguided1: plus bsd is pretty well documented in the handbook
[01:41:20] jk90090: crap, I'm kind of excited to see all the iDevices work now. Still can't get video running though
[01:41:29] jk90090: JYA
[01:41:31] jk90090: JYA
[01:41:32] jk90090: ;-)
[01:41:50] jya: my main grip with BSD is how painful it is to update any packages and the whole dist
[01:41:56] jya: sometimes it takes me a full day
[01:42:07] wagnerrp: jya: see something like portmaster
[01:42:15] wagnerrp: although i cant deny that it might take all day
[01:42:19] jya: if it wasn't for ZFS brilliance, I would have given up long ago
[01:42:26] jya: I use portmaster
[01:42:48] jya: but how many times you upgrade a package, it starts.. you leave, only to come back and see that it's waiting for you to answer a question?
[01:42:56] jya: you press enter, you leave, come back.. same deal
[01:43:01] wagnerrp: nah
[01:43:03] jya: last time I upgraded gnome
[01:43:08] wagnerrp: use one of the utilities
[01:43:08] jya: took me 2 days
[01:43:17] wagnerrp: they go through, scan for any packages that might require configuration
[01:43:20] jya: as I cant be in front of the machine all the time
[01:43:24] wagnerrp: and do all that stuff up front
[01:43:42] jya: the other things that screwed me up big time is the openssl port package
[01:43:54] jya: I compiled the nss_ldap plugin
[01:44:03] jya: it built against openssl from port
[01:44:09] Unguided1: wagnerrp how does freebsd compare to openindiana?
[01:44:16] wagnerrp: that whole process is part of the reason i switched everything to jails
[01:44:34] jk90090: Could I troublesome for the correct mythtv_version and mythtv_rev values for today's 0.25 branch?
[01:44:45] jya: when you use it, you find out that now you can't login because of the various openssl version (system one and port use in ldap module)
[01:44:59] skd5aner: OpenIndiana?
[01:45:03] skd5aner: wtf is that?
[01:45:10] wagnerrp: fork of the now defunct solaris
[01:45:12] jya: it's opensolaris fork
[01:45:18] skd5aner: ahhhhhhhhh, ok
[01:45:18] wagnerrp: dont know much about it
[01:45:29] jya: I learnt unix on BSD and solaris
[01:45:33] wagnerrp: theres that and nexanta
[01:45:34] Unguided1: skd5aner: http://openindiana.org/
[01:45:40] skd5aner: yea, reading it now
[01:45:41] jya: tried solaris again last year, I gave up.. too different
[01:45:52] jya: nexanta is very different though..
[01:46:02] jya: it's a ubuntu distrib on a opensolaris kernel
[01:46:23] jya: I tried it as I wanted to test the kernel smb server
[01:46:25] skd5aner: what's with the name? Indiana?
[01:46:54] jya: but it turned out to be such a pain to config, having to manually map all the user to the windows uid counterpart

[01:49:12] Unguided1: skd5aner: http://wiki.openindiana.org/oi/Frequently+Asked+Questions/
[01:49:20] skd5aner: Indiana is the codename/name of the previous official Sun Microsystems
[01:49:20] skd5aner: >>>> OpenSolaris distribution.
[01:49:34] skd5aner: so, they stuck with the codename and are considering keeping it as such
[01:49:54] skd5aner: in otherwords, they completely made it up
[01:50:22] skd5aner: I'm ok with it – I grew up in Indiana
[01:50:35] Unguided1: skd5aner: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenIndiana
[01:50:39] skd5aner: anything to give that state a little bit more publicity
[01:50:44] jya: who said they were using squeebox to play audio?

[02:16:05] jk90090: wagnerrp: in case you might care, re: the rebuild python script, if I use --version=0.25 only, it autoselects master and pulls in 0.26
[02:16:38] wagnerrp: not so much, ive got a replacement mostly written
[02:17:20] jk90090: wagnerrp: if I then use --version=0.25 --branch=fixes/0.25 , the script will autoslect the correct hash, but then looks at the already downloaded github pull to find the shortened hash, which would be very bad
[02:17:25] jk90090: I think, right?
[02:18:17] jk90090: the fix is to delete the /usr/portage/distfiles/mythtv-xxxxxx file its trying to read
[02:18:37] jk90090: so it downloads it again… food for though for the replacement at least
[02:18:43] wagnerrp: the distro file should be named off the ebuild version, not the one that it seems to have ignored
[02:20:42] jk90090: the distro file later when you try to emerge will be, but by that point the damage is already done

[11:04:53] justinh: jya_: yeah I was asleep. I'll do my damndest to test any patch you have for fixing the passthrough issue even if it means kicking my wife off the frontend for 10 minutes. to save myself hassle I'll probably set up a temp. install directory though. Had to make clean to undo the last changes. rebuilding alone seemingly wasn't enough
[11:05:08] jya: I've committed the change to master
[11:05:45] jya: use that changeset.. I'm fairly confident it fixes the issue you were seeting… I actually few a few places that were broken for using a separate spdif device
[11:05:54] jya: I wonder how it ever worked for you in particular
[11:05:58] jya: most wouldn't have seen it
[11:06:09] justinh: before 0.25 you mean?
[11:06:20] jya: only if your main device had a description with the word "analog"
[11:06:28] jya: yeah, issue was there in 0.24 too
[11:06:52] justinh: heh. I dunno. it just worked before.Only noticed a problem when I updated
[11:06:54] jya: there are two thinks with your audio device that I had never seen before
[11:07:22] jya: the first was that it was marked as analog, so when it goes to open digital it thinks: oh I can't
[11:07:24] jya: and the other
[11:07:35] jya: your device reports supporting only float audio and 32 bits.
[11:07:44] jya: not 16 bits, i've *never* seen this before
[11:07:50] justinh: I did a naughty db hack, setting MaxChannels to 6 yesterday before you did the 1st patch & it worked alright
[11:07:54] jya: (and I've seen my share of alsa device)
[11:08:14] jya: there was no need to do that, -O MaxChannels=6
[11:08:24] justinh: doh. Heh.
[11:08:36] jya: but that wouldn't have worked either.. no way
[11:08:56] jya: MaxChannels is just a hint to determine how many channels you can use
[11:09:03] jya: its used like
[11:09:05] justinh: anyway that no longer works seemingly. I should be seeing my AV amp's display change to 'DOLBY DIGITAL' when putting Ac3 over spdif
[11:09:22] jya: max_channels = min(GetSetting(MAX_CHANNE), what_the_device_report)
[11:09:28] justinh: you can disbelieve me all you like :-)
[11:09:29] jya: it was reporting 2, so 2 would be used
[11:09:46] jya: software placebo
[11:09:47] justinh: maybe alsa is broken. owuldn't be the 1st time
[11:10:04] jya: the issue you were seeing in the log you posted last night
[11:10:43] jya: your device reports not support 16 bits, passthrough can't work without 16 bits audio, it would have disabled passthrough… was reading the wrong settings
[11:11:02] jya: as in 99% of the case, passthrough device == main device : never saw the problem
[11:11:06] justinh: really? that's mad
[11:11:09] jya: anyhow.. all done
[11:11:28] jya: well, how long has 0.24 been out?
[11:11:30] justinh: cool. I'll take a look through the changeset & try it out proper as soon as I can

[13:02:01] locuse: hi. i have a mythtv backend installed on a linux/64 box, connected to an HDHomeRun tuner. @ shell, i can access the tuners, scan for channels, etc. with either cmd line tools or a tvheadend backend.
[13:02:11] locuse: with my setup, every channel reports gtom 95–100% signalstenth. in mythtv-setup, when i attempt to do a "Full" channel scan, signalstrengths never make it past ~50%, the vast majority of channels report "TimedOut, no signal". with a couple reporting "Probable channels".

[14:26:28] wagnerrp: you are supposed to select one of the available channels from that drop down for mythtv to start on
[14:26:52] wagnerrp: since there were no valid channels scanned in, it listed some default help text
[14:27:02] wagnerrp: which was longer than the database field it was to be stored to

[14:33:14] locuse: wagnerrp: it would seem to me that since you can't have any dropdown values until after the scan, reporting a "database error" for that fact is not the most appropriate form of message. in any case, here's the rest of the log output:

[16:48:16] wagnerrp: itunes has some additional authentication check or something
[16:50:31] yunosh: sounds like the old DAAP issue?
[16:50:47] wagnerrp: dont know anything about DAAP
[16:52:43] yunosh: pre-airtunes media sharing protocol. at some point appled added authentication to that, so that all clients that used to work with itunes as a media server ceased to work

[16:53:04] yunosh: afaik

[18:00:42] wagnerrp: bug
[18:00:55] wagnerrp: (being unable to scan HDHR devices is pretty serious)
[18:01:44] wagnerrp: my other comment was that mythtv is difficult to set up if you know where everything is, it just is confusing if you dont know the terminology or the steps
[18:02:01] wagnerrp: theres nothing to really guide you through and make intelligent guesses about things
[18:02:32] wagnerrp: the plan is to change that when mythtv-setup gets scrapped, and initial setup moves to a web server integrated in the backend, similar to how tvheadend operates

[18:04:46] locuse: lots of "wtf is this?" in that app.
[18:05:09] wagnerrp: right, but theres no 'wizard' or 'simple mode'
[18:05:24] wagnerrp: i.e. in the scanner, you have to know what all those little options are, and what you are supposed to do
[18:05:38] wagnerrp: rather than the application making an educated guess based off your locale and tuner type
[18:05:41] locuse: wagnerrp: heh, installed tvheadend lately? ;-)
[18:05:49] wagnerrp: actually, never have
[18:06:05] locuse: you may wish to hold that opinion!

[18:06:29] locuse: heh, yes.
[18:08:37] locuse: wagnerrp: is master branch likely worth a try as yet, compared to 0.25/fixes? iiuc, 0.25 release was failry recent — guessing thay haven't diverged TOO much yet.

[19:22:54] wagnerrp: locuse: note, you may have to manually align the channels with the XMLTV IDs found on the schedules direct website
[19:23:39] wagnerrp: mythfilldatabase will attempt to do that automatically as best it can, but will not make a guess if the callsigns do not exactly match
[19:24:24] locuse: wagnerrp: not sure what that exactly means, as yet ... but, noted.
[19:25:05] wagnerrp: mythfilldatabase pulls guide data from schedules direct, it must know what those channels are in relation to the channels in the guide data
[19:25:14] wagnerrp: that matching is performed using the XMLTV ID
[19:25:51] wagnerrp: it will attempt to set those as best it can using the callsign found in the broadcast during the scan
[19:26:14] wagnerrp: but some things may not match exactly, and you will have to define the XMLTV ID manually before that channel will get data
[19:29:50] locuse: wagnerrp: ah, so 'broadcast callsign' may have a (slightly) different string value than 'channel name' in XMLTV ID ...
[19:30:22] wagnerrp: close, the broadcast callsign that gets picked up in the database as the channel name may not exactly match the channel name on schedules direct
[19:30:50] wagnerrp: in which case automatic lookup will fail, and you have to set the id manually
[19:30:57] Jog_ (Jog_!~vision@1908ds1-nivaa.0.fullrate.dk) has quit (Quit: Leaving)
[19:32:01] locuse: wagnerrp: got it,thx.
[19:32:59] locuse: i _thought_ i'd read that mythtv has a bundled DLNA server ... no? minidlna is ez enuf, but if it's redundant ...
[19:33:25] wagnerrp: UPNP server, yes... mostly compatible with DLNA hardware
[19:33:34] wagnerrp: however there is no transcoding support at this time
[19:33:46] wagnerrp: so the device must be able to handle the content as it exists on disk
[19:33:58] wagnerrp: which means MPEG2 and AC3 in a TS
[19:34:12] wagnerrp: (mythtv just stores it as it comes from the broadcaster)
[19:34:25] locuse: ah, so not Matroska/MKV?
[19:34:46] wagnerrp: you can set up a user job to transcode it offline
[19:35:14] wagnerrp: but digital recordings are effectively just dumped to disk
[19:35:48] ** locuse digs thru trash for %*&^* bluray player's manual ... **
[19:36:31] wagnerrp: mpeg2+ac3+ts is a valid bluray format
[19:36:40] wagnerrp: well, technically m2ts rather than ts, but nearly identical
[19:37:01] wagnerrp: if your bluray player does not support playback of that content, it is an artificial limitation
[19:37:48] wagnerrp: on the contrary, at least for my PS3, ts and m2ts tend to be the "allow all" container
[19:38:31] wagnerrp: while it is picky what it will accept in ps, avi, and mp4 containers, it will basically use anything its hardware decoder can handle if in a ts container
[19:39:04] wagnerrp: which is actually a problem for some users that perform "lossless transcoding"
[19:39:47] wagnerrp: mythtv's "lossless" transcoder will apply the commercial cutlist, fix up the handful of orphaned P-frames around the cutpoints, and stuff it all into a PS
[19:39:59] wagnerrp: and the PS3 does not accept AC3 audio in a PS container

[19:45:05] Beirdo: as half of a codec (the co half) it's multithreaded :)
[19:45:53] Beirdo: yay, down to 237 critical alarms
[19:45:58] wagnerrp: yeah, but we dont do ffmpeg-mt yet, so it has to be the codec that supports it natively, since the compressors arent going to provide it themselves by doing something fancy
[19:46:26] wagnerrp: or will we after the sync?
[19:46:27] Beirdo: that doens't make any sense
[19:46:37] Beirdo: a compressor IS a codec
[19:46:43] Beirdo: it just doesn't decode
[19:46:49] wagnerrp: so its not a codec
[19:46:51] wagnerrp: just a co---
[19:47:13] Beirdo: and it supports threading natively
[19:47:17] wagnerrp: bah... not worth arguing

[19:47:28] Beirdo: that's why I say doesn't compute :)
[19:47:48] Beirdo: it will be even BETTER with the decoding side multithreaded
[19:47:54] wagnerrp: i mean the h264 format is designed for multithreading, using independent parallel domains
[19:48:00] wagnerrp: encoding and decoding
[19:48:00] Beirdo: yeah
[19:48:08] Beirdo: and we have both
[19:48:28] Beirdo: just the source material is sliced such that it only uses one thread
[19:48:37] wagnerrp: where as the ffmpeg-mt stuff does fancy things to allow it for codecs that do not support multithreaded operation
[19:48:39] Beirdo: if decoding from HDPVR
[19:48:42] Beirdo: ahh
[19:48:57] Beirdo: I'm not sure how much of that is incorporated quite yet
[19:50:06] skd5aner: either way – things are finally starting to autoexpire that I don't want to autoexpire – time to archive using nuvexport... figured a lot of this stuff woudl be better off stored as h264 instead of mpeg2
[19:50:12] locuse: wagnerrp: this player (Panasonic BDT220 ... recently released) claims it requires a "DLNA Certified Media Server" for Network media playback. It doesn't identify if all of its supported file formats (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/585/formatj.png/) as being supported ... staring at that, I see neither "mpeg2", "ac3" nor "m2ts". so either there's a synonym, or transcoding's required on my end.
[19:50:47] locuse: s/as being supported/as being supported *for DLNA*/
[19:51:05] wagnerrp: the DLNA standard is effectively just the UPNP standard, but with a mandatory fallback format
[19:51:25] wagnerrp: AIUI, all DLNA certified devices must be able to transcode into a common format to ensure compatibility
[19:51:36] locuse: wagnerrp: ok, so THAT box is 'checked' ...
[19:52:19] wagnerrp: of course, there is nothing stopping a player from refusing to interface with a "lowly UPNP server" that doesnt identify itself as DLNA certified
[19:52:30] locuse: assuming on of those listed IS that 'common format', that's not one of the formats that myth stores as, right?
[19:52:56] wagnerrp: im thinking mpeg2 is the common format
[19:53:17] locuse: wagnerrp: it's not listed ...

[20:00:37] skd5aner: Beirdo: not sure nuvexport is respecting the audio bitrate override
[20:00:46] skd5aner: (or entering it at all)
[20:00:55] Beirdo: you'd need to be a LOT more specific than that :)
[20:01:13] Beirdo: which encoder choice, etc
[20:01:18] skd5aner: selecting h264 as the output, you can select what you want the audio bitrate to be (defaults to 64)
[20:01:34] skd5aner: I entered, 128, but looking at the command line, it never sets it at all

[20:03:48] locuse: wagnerrp thx for the help! lunchtime <---
[20:03:54] skd5aner: Beirdo: looking at the video file in MediaInfo now, it still shows that it encoded at 64K AAC
[20:04:13] Beirdo: it's there in the code
[20:04:22] Beirdo: do a --debug run
[20:04:32] Beirdo: it should be there on the final pass
[20:04:36] skd5aner: I did... (doing single pass)
[20:04:46] fugg: if i changed a storage-location and copied contents, myth fails on that files because they were marked for the old location. how can i correct this ?
[20:05:08] skd5aner: Beirdo: http://pastebin.com/MApziucx
[20:05:28] skd5aner: Beirdo: no -ab flag?
[20:05:30] wagnerrp: fugg: mythtv does not know where you store files
[20:05:43] wagnerrp: it only knows the location relative to the root of the storage directory
[20:05:49] Beirdo: ooooh
[20:05:54] Beirdo: I see the problem
[20:05:59] Beirdo: one moment
[20:06:01] wagnerrp: as long as you retain the same location relative to the root of the storage directory, it will be happy
[20:06:23] wagnerrp: for recordings, the files are ALWAYS in the root directory, so it doesnt matter
[20:06:53] locuse (locuse!wRf5zCagRd@bolt.sonic.net) has quit ()
[20:07:15] wagnerrp: for videos, the files are hashed when initially scanned in, and if they turn up missing in a subsequent scan, that stored hash is compared against any new files, and the existing metadata reconnected to the new relative path

[20:07:48] tgm4883: fugg, did you change storage group location?
[20:07:49] wagnerrp: fugg: then you need to tell mythtv you are now storing content in /srv/myth/record
[20:08:04] wagnerrp: you tell it in the same way you told it you were using /var/record initially
[20:08:16] Beirdo: let me check locally here
[20:08:35] fugg: tgm4883, wagnerrp i did that, setup is ok ( like i mentioned, one new recording is fine)
[20:08:42] tgm4883: fugg, no it's not
[20:08:54] tgm4883: did you change hosts at all?

[20:08:58] tgm4883: hostnames
[20:09:50] tgm4883: wagnerrp, we need a mythbackend --print-all-storage-groups
[20:09:58] fugg: tgm4883, because i changed the domain and had double-entries i did a complete fresh install ( nothing left from the old domain/setup/mythconverg)

[20:10:46] tgm4883: fugg, and these are recordings?
[20:10:47] wagnerrp: fugg: if you did a fresh install with a fresh database, then there is no record of you ever having recorded those shows in the first place
[20:10:48] tgm4883: or videos?
[20:10:58] Beirdo: skd5aner: how odd. I'll figure this out
[20:11:22] wagnerrp: as far as mythtv is concerned, those are just irrelevant files filling up its recording path
[20:11:55] fugg: tgm4883, wagnerrp setup 3 days old, recordings from within those days, changed location today.
[20:12:12] tgm4883: fugg, congratulations, all your recordings are only identifiable by chanid+timestamp
[20:12:34] tgm4883: MythTV has no idea it recorded those, as you blew away the database where it keeps that info
[20:12:41] wagnerrp: the recordings you cannot access were made on the current database? or the old database?
[20:13:47] fugg: tgm4883, wagnerrp from the old setup i got some log-messages about "could not delete myth://10.0.0.254 blahblah where some outdated recordings should be purged, so there is something in DB)
[20:14:05] tgm4883: the old setup?
[20:14:45] tgm4883: fugg, lets start from wagnerrp's last question. Are the recordings that are missing from before you blew away the database or after?
[20:15:03] Beirdo: skd5aner: fixed :) git pull at your leisure
[20:17:02] fugg: tgm4883, no. complete fresh install, anything related to hosts/backends/recordings/channels is 3 days old. recordings from these 3 days were moved from /var/record to /srv/myth/record and in the same time i changed the storage-group. now i got one new recording which is fine , the others were listed but i cant e.g. download them from mythweb.
[20:17:35] tgm4883: ah ok
[20:17:40] tgm4883: making more sense now
[20:17:55] tgm4883: fugg, ok, so you copied the files to /srv/myth/record/
[20:18:04] tgm4883: and you can ls that directory and see them in there?
[20:18:05] wagnerrp: fugg: have you restarted your frontend and backend since adding the new directory into that storage group?
[20:18:42] fugg: tgm4883, wagnerrp copied, yes. restarted, yes .let me paste the error-line, moment ...........
[20:20:13] fugg: i go to masterbackend/mythweb , select one of this recordings and klick on download. then i get this -> 1301_20120417230700.mpg does not exist in any recognized storage group directories for this host.
[20:20:29] tgm4883: ok
[20:20:33] tgm4883: what if you do
[20:20:40] tgm4883: ls /srv/myth/record/1301_20120417230700.mpg
[20:20:51] wagnerrp: fugg: can you access the recordings from within mythfrontend?
[20:20:56] fugg: doing the same for the one, new recording.....i get it.

[20:57:39] skd5aner: it's a cooking show, in SD, from a mediocre encoder – so, I'll bump up to 720 and live with it, since I may or may not ever watch that particular episode again, and if I do, it's only to get cooking advice or a recipe :)
[20:57:50] devinheitmueller: Also depends on the encoder of course. In my case, I didn't have b-frames, which impacted bitrate/quality quite a bit. I don't know if x264 does.
[20:57:52] skd5aner: thanks for the advice though

[21:00:20] devinheitmueller: skd5aner: Yeah, I know who you're talking about. He kept saying that kernel development was "retarted". I don't think that word means what he thinks it means.
[21:00:22] skd5aner: I don't even remember the guy's name/nick, oh well
[21:00:32] devinheitmueller: He in fact did make a donation.
[21:00:49] devinheitmueller: Robert McCurdy
[21:01:01] skd5aner: devinheitmueller: haha, yea – that was the guy... I was a little confused by his word choice as well...didn't he use a lot of 1337speak?

[21:02:59] CyberKnet (CyberKnet!~s.blomfie@65.38.25.93) has quit ()
[21:04:19] devinheitmueller: That reminds me, some guy is offloading 800 HVR-1800 boards at $20.00 a pop. The only downside is they don't have the A/V inputs (ATSC/ClearQAM and analog via the tuner input only)
[21:04:56] devinheitmueller: That's a pretty sweet deal as a PCIe PVR-150 replacement, assuming you don't need the composite or s-video input.
[21:04:59] skd5aner: hmmm... I don't need those anyway
[21:05:04] skd5aner: where I can get a few?
[21:05:13] skd5aner: "through" you?
[21:05:36] devinheitmueller: http://www.ebay.com/itm/200747246811?ssPageNa . . . .m1497.l2649
[21:05:52] devinheitmueller: I need to make a couple of fixes to get analog working again, but once that is done they would be great.
[21:06:07] devinheitmueller: (a regression appears to have been recently introduced)
[21:06:08] skd5aner: devinheitmueller: I must admit, I don't know anything about the card... I haven't went "shopping" in years
[21:06:39] devinheitmueller: Dual tuner – one ATSC/ClearQAM tuner, and one analog tuner. Essentially the HVR-1600 but in PCIe form factor.
[21:06:46] skd5aner: how does that compare in their lineup?
[21:07:01] devinheitmueller: (oh, and no IR support in this case)
[21:07:04] kenni (kenni!~kenni@mythtv/developer/kenni) has joined #mythtv-users
[21:07:17] skd5aner: don't needthat either...
[21:07:19] devinheitmueller: skd5aner: what is your basis of comparison?
[21:07:22] skd5aner: what's the HVR-1600?
[21:07:44] devinheitmueller: The HVR-1600 is the PCI replacement for the PVR-[123]50, but it also has digital support.
[21:07:54] devinheitmueller: (also a dual tuner)
[21:08:10] skd5aner: Well, right now I have several PVR-250s, a PVR-500, a couple old "Air2PC/HD5000" card, and HDHR-US (first gen), and an HD-PVR
[21:08:46] skd5aner: Do you know if the encoder is better on these than the old 250s/500s?
[21:08:56] Beirdo: devinheitmueller: if you hear of old bttv cards (or others with radio support) kicking around, let me know? :)
[21:09:14] devinheitmueller: It's essentially the same quality (perhaps a bit better).
[21:09:28] devinheitmueller: The tuner is newer, and it's not a can tuner, so in general the analog quality will be better.
[21:09:39] jams: skd5aner- same or slightly better for analog
[21:09:57] devinheitmueller: Beirdo: I actually don't have a single board with FM support (which is pretty fricking surprising). I went looking for one a few weeks ago because I wanted to do some FM work.
[21:10:49] Beirdo: heh, I am looking to maybe add FM to mythtv at some point
[21:10:59] skd5aner: Well, my server MOBO has 3 PCI slots, and 2 PCIe 16 and 2 PCIe 1 slots
[21:11:00] devinheitmueller: I wouldn't go switching from a 250 to an 1800 just for the "quality", since unless you have a trained eye you are unlikely to be able to tell the difference.
[21:11:00] Beirdo: I bought a USB one that works
[21:11:49] skd5aner: devinheitmueller: can it simultaneously use the digital and analog tuners/encoders?
[21:11:59] devinheitmueller: Yeah, at $20 this is a very cheap alternative to a USB design (and in general the people who are doing USB are doing such because of the cost)
[21:12:14] devinheitmueller: skd5aner: yes. It has two independent tuners – one for analog and one for digital.
[21:12:31] skd5aner: ah, yes... I see it has 2 inputs
[21:13:05] ToadP (ToadP!~jboyle@184.175.20.6) has joined #mythtv-users
[21:13:15] Beirdo: it'd be good to go PCI->PCIe though
[21:13:37] skd5aner: Beirdo: why?
[21:13:42] devinheitmueller: Beirdo: sure, if your card dies it makes sense to switch to PCIe. But if not, then there won't be any noticeable difference.
[21:14:29] devinheitmueller: Like I said: the analog support is currently broken, so be forewarned.
[21:15:01] Beirdo: skd5aner: because many new mobos don't have PCI, or limited slots :)
[21:15:18] skd5aner: devinheitmueller: in my case, that server has a PVR-500, PVR-250, and an HD5000 card in it, I could easily get the 1800 and get rid of the 250 and 5000
[21:15:22] Beirdo: I like my HVR-2250 though. It's just humming along
[21:15:33] skd5aner: what's the benefits of the 2250?
[21:15:43] Beirdo: two tuners
[21:15:48] Beirdo: both with analog/digital
[21:15:52] devinheitmueller: The 2250 is definitely a better card, since it's a dual tuner with two analog encoders (either tuner can support analog or digital)
[21:16:07] Beirdo: and FM radio (not yet supported)
[21:16:08] Beirdo: :)
[21:16:14] skd5aner: ah, yea – thats nice – is it able to record 4 things, or only 2 things?
[21:16:39] Beirdo: 2 total (other than multirec on the digital side)
[21:16:46] skd5aner: yea
[21:17:09] skd5aner: devinheitmueller: thanks for the link, I'll have to think about it... not sure it's a lot of good in my case, but still a great deal for someone who actually needs the card
[21:17:12] Beirdo: mine has OTA on the digital side and two DirecTV SD receivers on the analog side
[21:17:15] Beirdo: works great

[21:17:41] skd5aner: :P
[21:17:49] devinheitmueller: Beirdo: I cannot imagine the FM support on the 2250 working anytime soon.
[21:17:57] devinheitmueller: (since it would require raw audio capture)
[21:18:21] Beirdo: yeah, I hear ya
[21:18:22] devinheitmueller: ... and right now there is no raw capture support at all for either audio or video.
[21:18:50] Beirdo: I pinged stoth about it, I'm not expecting it to be high on his priority list any time soon :)
[21:19:08] devinheitmueller: Beirdo: the 2250 isn't really on his list at all at this point.
[21:19:14] Beirdo: would be sweet, but there are far more important things to work on :)
[21:19:22] devinheitmueller: indeed.
[21:19:24] Beirdo: yeah, not surprising
[21:20:01] Beirdo: if there was a way to lend a hand on that, I'd be happy to, but I'm sure it would take a while to get up to speed, and for minimal use
[21:20:11] Beirdo: meh :)
[21:20:49] Beirdo: and no way I'm gonna start soldering or probing on my 2250 any time soon, if I needed to do that, I'd be buying anotehr

[21:23:28] skd5aner: what's the difference between the 1800/1850?
[21:23:30] devinheitmueller: No point in soldering/probing really.
[21:23:47] devinheitmueller: skd5aner: very little. The rev'd the board slightly to reduce cost.
[21:23:53] skd5aner: gotcha
[21:24:12] devinheitmueller: Oh, and the 1850 has an MCE compatible IR receiver.
[21:24:18] Beirdo: cool. good to know. Having a sacrifical board is fine if needed, of course
[21:25:09] devinheitmueller: Beirdo: so much of that design is on the 7164 (as opposed to external components), there would be very little to trace in terms of stuff like i2c.
[21:25:43] Beirdo: right. and I can't find public data sheets for the 7164 (last I looked)
[21:25:46] Beirdo: always fun
[21:25:51] devinheitmueller: Beirdo: you won't find any.
[21:25:55] Beirdo: figures :)
[21:26:08] Beirdo: in 5–10 years maybe
[21:26:15] devinheitmueller: doubtful
[21:26:24] devinheitmueller: By that point they would have nothing to gain by making them public.
[21:26:44] Beirdo: true.
[21:26:46] Beirdo: ah well
[21:27:17] devinheitmueller: Unfortunately, vendors only really make those sorts of datasheets available when they have a specific financial incentive. The default behavior is to keep it secret.
[21:27:18] Beirdo: not like I don't have 10M other things to toy with anyways :)
[21:27:53] Beirdo: yeah, having worked the embedded design side before, I'm far too acquainted with that ...

[21:39:05] devinheitmueller: The IO header isn't populated.
[21:39:42] wagnerrp: did they leave off the switch chip? or just not wire up any of the additional inputs?
[21:39:49] devinheitmueller: wagnerrp: If you click on the photo, you can zoom in.
[21:40:00] devinheitmueller: Which switch are you referring to?
[21:40:14] devinheitmueller: It looks like the connectors as well as all the supporting components are depopulated.
[21:40:32] wagnerrp: the internal switch between the five different inputs (tuner, 2x composite, 2x svideo)
[21:40:48] wagnerrp: i have no idea if that is handled internally by the video processor, or if there is a separate chip for that

[21:43:07] wagnerrp: it will do component video? i guess standard definition only?
[21:43:19] devinheitmueller: wagnerrp: yes. 480i.
[21:44:11] devinheitmueller: That's pretty common. Most products just never bring out the support though since it doesn't make any sense (and it just confuses less knowledgeable users who think it will work with HD)
[21:45:11] devinheitmueller: ... and if you're a product vendor, it's much better to be clear that a feature doesn't exist than confuse people and incur the cost of the returns.
[21:46:24] wagnerrp: i have seen a couple of framegrabbers with component on breakout cables
[21:46:38] wagnerrp: and i imagine there are only a handful of chip families that do this sort of thing
[21:48:28] devinheitmueller: The only case where I've done work with component SD was for ViewCast, and that's clearly for professionals.
[21:48:38] devinheitmueller: Many of the chips have the basic support though.
[21:49:53] wagnerrp: my old roommate actually had one of the later Trinitrons with 480i component input
[21:50:17] devinheitmueller: They do exist, but are just less common since nowadays most component is HD.

[22:58:52] koffel: can i use hdpvr ir blaster for channel change?
[22:59:21] wagnerrp: yes
[22:59:42] wagnerrp: however you likely dont want to be using an HDPVR at all
[22:59:42] skd5aner: wagnerrp: alright, well, I'm finding issues all over, but lets start one place... TV shows within the Video Library...
[23:00:05] wagnerrp: koffel: do you get any premium channels with your cable subscription? (hbo, showtime, etc...)
[23:00:18] koffel: wagnerrp why?
[23:00:22] koffel: yes
[23:00:41] koffel: i have every channel comcast offers
[23:00:47] wagnerrp: because youre on comcast, and the only thing copy protected in comcast are the premiums
[23:00:51] koffel: 600+
[23:00:59] wagnerrp: so for everything else, youre much better off with a cablecard tuner
[23:01:15] koffel: hdpvr is compont
[23:01:20] skd5aner: wagnerrp: For whatever reason, when I rescanned the library after upgrade, it actually re-added 3 seasons of Seinfeld, no clue as to why... but, it mean that I needed to manually scan those entries again...
[23:01:26] koffel: u know rbg
[23:01:41] wagnerrp: yes, analog
[23:01:49] koffel: no
[23:01:49] wagnerrp: to bypass the encryption/copy-protection
[23:02:03] wagnerrp: however... you only need it if the channels are copy protected in the first place
[23:02:04] koffel: wang why is it 720p
[23:02:13] skd5aner: koffel: all he's saying is, that since you are a comcast customer, you can get the majority of your channels via a cablecard tuner like the HDHR Prime or the Ceton...
[23:02:14] wagnerrp: because its analog 720p
[23:02:49] skd5aner: koffel: you can use the HD-PVR, but you're tied to a single STB when doing so
[23:02:53] koffel: i see
[23:02:53] skd5aner: that's all he's saying
[23:03:19] koffel: well i only use 1 stb
[23:03:31] skd5aner: With a cablecard tuner, you could tune 3/4 different things at the same time
[23:03:33] koffel: a hd dvr 3416
[23:03:46] skd5aner: and not have to rent the STB
[23:04:03] koffel: isn't cable card limited
[23:04:12] wagnerrp: limited to the copy-freely channels, yes
[23:04:21] wagnerrp: which for you on comcast, means everything but the premiums
[23:04:27] koffel: well ahhh not good here
[23:04:52] wagnerrp: most people dont want to get by with a single tuner
[23:05:00] koffel: my comcast is 5c from 100 threw channel 1660
[23:05:33] wagnerrp: so a $100-$200 (2–4 tuner) cablecard tuner, plus a $2/mo cablecard rental, would replace that many HDPVRs at $200 each, with a matching $10/mo rental
[23:05:45] wagnerrp: usually people are using more than one of those things
[23:05:52] wagnerrp: and not getting the premiums
[23:06:06] skd5aner: wagnerrp: so... anyway, mile episodes are ripped from my DVDs in the following filename format: ../TV Shows/Seinfeld/Season 04/SEINFELD_s04e01.mkv
[23:06:07] wagnerrp: youve gone into the diagnostic mode in your STB to see those CCI codes?
[23:06:31] skd5aner: wagnerrp: so, they parse with no issues... (with the exception of the issue I told you about the other day, but lets ignore that for now)...
[23:06:48] wagnerrp: the multi-episode file thing?
[23:06:59] skd5aner: wagnerrp: nope, I've applied that fix

I can even see in the logs where it pulls the artwork and I can find it in my directories tied to my storage groups...
[23:09:01] koffel: well okay i used ubuntu before
[23:09:05] wagnerrp: as long as that is not debian or centos (or rhel or scientific linux)
[23:09:19] skd5aner: wagnerrp: now, the problem... the artwork never appears, and when I look in the DB it didn't populate the various artwork fields with the file names
[23:09:45] wagnerrp: anything in your frontend logs?

[23:11:50] skd5aner: I had deleted the previous downloaded coverart to make sure it would download it again, and it did
[23:11:59] wagnerrp: is there actually a Coverart directory defined for whatever host is on 192.168.1.206?
[23:12:08] skd5aner: yes
[23:12:31] wagnerrp: ok, because the Videos definitions will fall through, but the artwork for remote writes dont
[23:12:35] skd5aner: and videos/recordings that have a filename in the db properly retrieve and display it
[23:12:54] mycosys1 (mycosys1!~mycosys@220-245-190-74.static.tpgi.com.au) has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds)
[23:13:21] skd5aner: I can see the file being written to disk when retrieved
[23:13:57] skd5aner: it's just never populating in the db – and again, I'm only limiting this to the scope of the video library – I've had better success with recordings, although a few oddities there as well (to discuss another time)
[23:14:35] skd5aner: anything else I can try that would give us more to go on?

[23:16:42] wagnerrp: there certainly is artwork being listed
[23:17:19] wagnerrp: maybe it never gets set in the database until the download manager finishes
[23:17:26] wagnerrp: and something is preventing it from completing
[23:17:37] skd5aner: how would I be able to tell?
[23:17:51] wagnerrp: should be errors in the logs for something
[23:18:17] skd5aner: I don't see any
[23:18:23] skd5aner: let me check something real quick...

[23:22:42] wagnerrp: keep typing with focus on the wrong window

[23:36:22] skd5aner: -v all, truncated from when I went to retrieve the metadata artwork for season 4 ep 1
[23:38:31] wagnerrp: bad stuff at line 231
[23:38:41] wagnerrp: and the source of your problem
[23:39:04] skd5aner: that's my SBE/FE
[23:39:46] wagnerrp: then it seems to think the content is on your SBE/FE
[23:39:55] wagnerrp: likely because youve got the folders NFS mounted over there
[23:40:10] wagnerrp: and there is no mechanism to ensure you select the correct backend
[23:40:23] wagnerrp: (one of the things i need to fix by reworking the scanner)

[23:40:30] skd5aner: So, I've defined storage groups on my MBE, aren't those global?
[23:40:47] wagnerrp: Videos, yes..., artwork, not yet
[23:40:58] wagnerrp: and thats half the problem
[23:41:07] skd5aner: so, I need to define storage groups on my mfe/sbe as well?
[23:41:20] wagnerrp: it is picking up the content on the wrong host, and since there are no storage groups defined for artwork on the SBE, it doesnt know where to save it and gives up
[23:41:24] skd5aner: and, since the same dirs are mounted via NFS, I can just define them the same?
[23:41:39] wagnerrp: however the other half is of course that it shouldnt be using that host in the first place
[23:42:10] wagnerrp: it needs to store all found instances, and then use the host where the filesystem is marked as local
[23:42:26] wagnerrp: ideally, the scanner would get removed from the frontend entirely, and all this would happen on the backend
[23:42:46] wagnerrp: (which of course means no more 'local' content)
[23:43:24] wagnerrp: so yeah, the problem is a result of my changes to the scanner
[23:43:50] wagnerrp: rather, my changes brought existing problems to the forefront
[23:45:42] mzb_ is now known as mzb
[23:48:56] skd5aner: so... I'm a little lost in what that means in terms of what I need to do for now?
[23:49:00] skd5aner: define storage groups locally?
[23:49:08] wagnerrp: remove the NFS mounts if possible
[23:49:21] wagnerrp: what are they for? encrypted ISOs?
[23:49:51] skd5aner: so that I can universally get to everything from any machine, under the same path
[23:50:08] wagnerrp: you mean for access outside of mythtv
[23:50:11] skd5aner: I think the vast majority of my isos are unencrypted
[23:50:21] skd5aner: wagnerrp: yes

[23:52:42] skd5aner: the SBE has an HDPVR attached to it, that records to storage on the MBE – will it be able to accomplish that via storage groups without the nfs mount?
[23:53:29] wagnerrp: no, however that means your recordings mounts and your video mounts are the same?
[23:54:09] skd5aner: all under the same parent heirarchy
[23:55:10] ** wagnerrp loves how ZFS means you dont have to use a single mount for an entire filesystem **
[23:55:27] skd5aner: so, /mythtv/media/... for videos /mythtv/recordings/... for recordings
[23:55:58] skd5aner: so, recording to remote storage on a SBE still requires NFS
[23:56:32] ** skd5aner just realized he's used "so" to start sentences a lot tonight :/ **
[23:56:33] wagnerrp: for the foreseeable future
[23:56:40] skd5aner: well... poop
[23:57:06] wagnerrp: last time i questioned danielk about it, "mythproto is too low performance to replace NFS for writes"

[23:57:16] skd5aner: I mean, I don't mind the NFS part – it's worked forever for me, but the fact that metadata doesn't work for me... that's an issue
[23:57:37] skd5aner: one I can live with, but annoying you know
[23:58:14] wagnerrp: yeah, the problem is its not a trivial solution

[23:58:34] skd5aner: worked in 0.24?
[23:58:41] wagnerrp: and something i would be reluctant to backport
[23:58:48] wagnerrp: well... sort of
[23:59:01] skd5aner: correction: worked for "me" in 0.24 :)
[23:59:05] wagnerrp: the problem still existed in 0.24
[23:59:19] wagnerrp: had you defined those same Videos folders on your SBE in 0.24, you would have experienced the same thing you are now
[23:59:37] skd5aner: they've always been defined as such?
[23:59:42] wagnerrp: just a thought, you should be able to bypass it by specifying a dummy folder on your SBE
[23:59:48] skd5aner: I didn't just set these up
