[01:43:44] | neon__: | http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/ ? |
[01:43:48] | [R]: | sure |
[01:44:17] | neon__: | where there? |
[01:44:46] | neon__: | mythtv work on windows???!!! |
[01:44:54] | xuser: | http://pastebin.com/wZVNzGLZ |
[01:46:19] | [R]: | there is a frontend |
[01:46:21] | [R]: | i dunno how good it is |
[01:46:22] | [R]: | probably crap |
[01:46:29] | [R]: | it works best in linux |
[01:46:38] | [R]: | neon__: you need to read the whole site |

[01:48:05] | xuser: | let me redo the pastebin. |
[01:48:12] | [R]: | it doesnt matter |
[01:48:15] | [R]: | its not configured |
[01:48:17] | [R]: | tahts why it doesnt work |
[01:48:24] | xuser: | what's missing? |
[01:48:30] | [R]: | everything |
[01:49:16] | xuser: | it uncompress the feed. |
[01:49:28] | xuser: | I can add a channel and record and view. |
[01:50:50] | [R]: | you need to reread the documentation |
[01:50:54] | [R]: | it explains how to properly set up mythtv |

[02:01:41] | quinten: | i'm trying to set up mythbackend on a headless, archlinux-arm system. i'm looking at the wiki, and it suggests that I need a working X server in order to set it up. is that right? |
[02:01:46] | quinten: | https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/MythTV |
[02:01:53] | quinten: | i'm wondering if this is out of date |
[02:02:08] | [R]: | you dont |
[02:02:21] | [R]: | i mean, somewhere you need an x server |
[02:02:37] | [R]: | but it doesnt necessarily have to be on the same computer as the backend |
[02:02:50] | neon__: | I have V4LChannel(/dev/video1): Can't open video devic |
[02:03:00] | [R]: | neon__: that's all it says? |
[02:03:19] | neon__: | no |
[02:03:23] | quinten: | ok, if i install the mythtv package (no separate backend/frontend packages for arch) then i just need to install the X server on my windows computer, and export display? |

[02:10:27] | devinheitmueller: | neon__: It's probably the permissions on /dev/video1 are not wrong. |
[02:10:40] | devinheitmueller: | The user running the mythbackend needs to be able to access the /dev/video1 device. |

[02:30:39] | neon__: | wooof |
[02:31:00] | devinheitmueller: | You're running xawtv as *your* user account. MythTV is running as the mythtv user account. |
[02:31:09] | devinheitmueller: | Hence the permissions are different. |
[02:31:34] | devinheitmueller: | Your local Linux user account can access /dev/video0. Whatever account the mythbackend process is running as cannot. |
[02:32:05] | neon__: | devinheitmueller, the problem there was that xawtv run /dev/video0 while myth tried /dev/video1. I changed it to /dev/video0 and now it works, sort off |
[02:32:39] | devinheitmueller: | Depending on the card, it's likely that /dev/video0 is the *raw* device node and /dev/video1 is for compressed (which is what you want for mythtv) |

[02:33:19] | neon__: | its a pvr2000 |
[02:33:37] | devinheitmueller: | Yes, and devices that have an onboard mpeg encoder often represent the card with two device nodes. |

[02:33:52] | devinheitmueller: | You need to select the correct device node in order to get the mpeg encoder. |
[02:34:01] | devinheitmueller: | Otherwise you get the raw video capture port on the card. |
[02:34:10] | neon__: | is V4L the right one? |
[02:34:14] | devinheitmueller: | Also, did you specify the device type as IVTV? |
[02:34:21] | devinheitmueller: | No, V4L is for raw capture. You want IVTV. |

[02:35:20] | neon__: | I don't see IVTV |
[02:35:38] | devinheitmueller: | Did you compile mythtv from source? |
[02:35:41] | devinheitmueller: | It should be there by default. |
[02:35:57] | devinheitmueller: | It's an alternative to V4L |
[02:36:30] | neon__: | devinheitmueller, no I got it in a package from deb-multimedia.org for debian wheezy |
[02:36:38] | devinheitmueller: | that should work then. |
[02:36:42] | neon__: | I have MPEG-2 encoder card |
[02:36:44] | devinheitmueller: | You're probably just overlooking it. |
[02:37:12] | devinheitmueller: | Yes, MPEG-2 encoders are referred to as IVTV devices under MythTV (because the first MPEG encoder cards supported were based on the IVTV chipset) |
[02:37:15] | neon__: | I have "MPEG-2 encoder card" where V4L is its called "card type:" |
[02:37:36] | neon__: | so that is the one? |
[02:37:46] | devinheitmueller: | Yup. |
[02:37:47] | neon__: | and then choose /dev/video1? |
[02:37:50] | devinheitmueller: | (maybe they finally renamed it) |

[02:40:43] | devinheitmueller: | Pardon, what user is mythbackend running as? |
[02:41:05] | neon__: | it doesn't run because it wanted to shut it down for setup |
[02:41:09] | neon__: | i think |
[02:41:16] | neon__: | or root or my user |

[02:41:35] | neon__: | it doesn't run |
[02:41:41] | devinheitmueller: | Do you have any other tv applications like tvbackend? |
[02:41:48] | neon__: | not that I know of |
[02:42:06] | devinheitmueller: | You can try something like "fuser /dev/video1" and see if anything comes back |
[02:42:23] | neon__: | there is in ps aux|grep tv : [cx88 tvaudio] |
[02:42:38] | devinheitmueller: | That should be fine. |
[02:42:53] | devinheitmueller: | That's just a kernel thread for managing the onboard audio. |
[02:42:59] | neon__: | nothing comes up |
[02:43:16] | devinheitmueller: | Interesting. |
[02:43:34] | devinheitmueller: | You could potentially run strace against mythtv-setup and see why the open call is failing. |

[02:47:19] | devinheitmueller: | (you can probably just search for "/dev/video1") |

[02:54:43] | devinheitmueller: | Pastebin the surrounding 50 or so lines of output |
[02:55:06] | neon__: | I can paste the file |
[02:56:49] | devinheitmueller: | You don't need to do the entire file. |
[02:56:52] | devinheitmueller: | But use pastebin.org |
[02:57:08] | devinheitmueller: | Do *NOT* paste it into the irc window. |
[02:59:28] | neon__: | http://paste.debian.net/220467/ |
[02:59:54] | neon__: | I greped -A 50 -B 50 video1 |
[03:00:16] | devinheitmueller: | The open() call appears to have failed with -EINVAL |
[03:00:55] | devinheitmueller: | Oh wait, you did what? |
[03:01:02] | devinheitmueller: | Hmmm, that might have screwed up the output |
[03:01:22] | devinheitmueller: | There is a context switch after the open of video1, so if there were more than 50 lines, you're losing data. |
[03:01:46] | devinheitmueller: | Open the file, and find the line that says "open("/dev/video1"" |
[03:01:58] | devinheitmueller: | Then search for the next line that contains 5856 |

[03:03:31] | neon__: | it is only about 10 lines after the video1 so it is from the same contxt |

[03:05:57] | devinheitmueller: | (or wherever your distro puts it) |
[03:06:14] | devinheitmueller: | No, the firmware is a binary blob that has to reside in /lib/firmware and gets loaded at module startup. |

[03:09:42] | devinheitmueller: | Ah, yeah, that explains it. |

[03:10:32] | devinheitmueller: | ;-) |
[03:10:46] | devinheitmueller: | Just google for that filename, download it, stick it into /lib/firmware, and reboot. |
[03:12:26] | neon__: | I found it in a package the firemwares, I think |
[03:12:35] | neon__: | I'll install and search for it |
[03:13:31] | neon__: | now I have it |
[03:14:43] | neon__: | I wonder which other firmware I might be needing |
[03:14:50] | neon__: | there are lots of firmware packages |
[03:14:50] | devinheitmueller: | That should be it. |

[03:19:30] | neon__: | I don't understand what to do |
[03:19:54] | devinheitmueller: | In mythtv-setup there is a screen that lets you setup schedules direct. |
[03:20:45] | devinheitmueller: | http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/User_Manual:MythTV . . . ideo_sources |
[03:22:14] | neon__: | that screen look like it fetch tv guides from websites |
[03:22:40] | devinheitmueller: | Yup |
[03:22:59] | neon__: | and it doesn't respond. It gives me a list of channels with default not to downoad, and I don't have a way to change that default |
[03:23:13] | devinheitmueller: | You setup a grabber for your area, then you edit the channel list to include which channels to include. |
[03:23:32] | devinheitmueller: | Did you specify a user id and password? |
[03:23:32] | neon__: | how do I edit that channel list? |
[03:23:41] | neon__: | probably not |
[03:23:42] | devinheitmueller: | On schedulesdirect.org. |
[03:24:10] | neon__: | I am not prompted for passwords |
[03:24:13] | devinheitmueller: | You create an account, then use the web interface to indicate your lineup. Then you can tell it what channels you do/do not receive. |
[03:24:37] | devinheitmueller: | The password is directly right of the "user id" field. |
[03:24:39] | neon__: | and I am in Israel I chose an israely website |
[03:24:55] | devinheitmueller: | Ah, you're in Israel. |
[03:25:03] | devinheitmueller: | Yeah, not sure how they do listings there. |
[03:25:36] | devinheitmueller: | Frankly I should just kill a few hours and fix the damn channel scanner. |

[03:41:00] | neon__: | for all i can tell |
[03:41:13] | neon__: | look hanged on fetch |
[03:41:45] | Pablo__: | This is my first time here – I've come because I need some help with my MythTV setup, but I don't know the etiquette. Do I just wait til others have stopped writing before I butt in? |
[03:42:21] | neon__: | Pablo__, I think u just ask, and hope someone will know |
[03:42:31] | Pablo__: | OK. Thanks neon :) |
[03:43:41] | Pablo__: | I had myth 0.24 running smoothly with ubuntu 10.04, but thought I'd upgrade to 0.25 on 12.04. Now I'm getting an error message on my tuner card as follows: 'DiSEqCDevTree: No device tree for cardid 7' |
[03:43:47] | Pablo__: | Any ideas what might be wrong? |
[03:44:28] | Pablo__: | I'm using ASUS U3100 Mini DVB-T tuners. |
[03:45:02] | [R]: | that's not an error... |
[03:45:20] | neon__: | it hanged. seems like the strace was running |
[03:46:00] | neon__: | so if you want I can look why it hanged. If it matters |
[03:46:45] | Pablo__: | Thanks R. My mistake then. It scans in backend fine, but when I go to the frontend to watch TV, it quickly says 'Please Wait ...' before returning me to the main menu (i.e. doesn't play TV). |

[03:59:17] | neon__: | ere you will see whether your XMLTV grabber correctly identified each channel or not: if not, you will end up with bogus channels with "???" as channel number. If so, simply write down the XMLTV ID for the bogus channel and put this ID in the real channel. You can then delete the bogus channel. |
[03:59:17] | neon__: | One thing to watch for, in case several of your capture cards receive similar channels – for example, analog and DVB cards that have some TV channels in common - : you cannot use the XMLTV ID of Source 1 as the XMLTV ID for a channel that belongs to Source 2, even if the channels are the same. This sometimes means that, unfortunately, you will end up duplicating xmltv grabbing for the same channels on each source: if you are relucta |

[16:51:42] | kslater: | If I have 2 capture cards pulling a feed from the same source set box, do I need 2 sources? For example, I have a DirecTV receiver and I generally feed that into an HD-PVR for HD recording. But when that's not working (like now), I'd like to fall back to recording from an PVR-250 over S-Video (I'll take the quality hit, but would like to still get the shows recorded). |
[16:51:55] | kslater: | So both of those should have the same schedule information |
[16:52:09] | kslater: | but do I need to define DirecTV1 and DirecTV2 as listing sources? And is Myth smart about handling that so I don't end up with duplicated listings in the database? |
[16:53:50] | dougl (dougl!~doug@S0106744401495b56.wp.shawcable.net) has joined #mythtv-users | |
[16:54:39] | sphery: | kslater: MythTV Video Source is a list of channels that are available on a source and their associated tuning information |
[16:55:02] | sphery: | so if you have inputs that tune differently, but access identical channels, you must have 2 different MythTV Video Sources |
[16:55:20] | sphery: | or if you have inputs that can tune different lists of channels, you must have 2 different MythTV Video Sources |
[16:55:49] | wagnerrp: | but for an HDPVR and a PVR-250 pulling from the same STB, just one source |
[16:55:56] | sphery: | the schedule information (listings info) is completely different from the Video Source |
[16:55:57] | kslater: | but they don't really tune differently. Both would have to switch channels using the same /dev/ttyUSB0 port. |
[16:55:58] | wagnerrp: | and make sure both inputs are configured in an input group |
[16:56:03] | kslater: | ok, makes sense |
[16:56:08] | wagnerrp: | so mythtv understands not to use them at the same time |
[16:56:11] | kslater: | I did do that wagnerrp |
[16:56:25] | wagnerrp: | and make sure the HDPVR is set as a higher priority, so it will be used if available |
[16:56:32] | wagnerrp: | define "not working" |
[16:56:33] | kslater: | and I gave the PVR-250 a -2 priority and the HD-PVR a +1 priority |
[16:56:44] | kslater: | HD-PVR refuses to record |
[16:56:49] | wagnerrp: | as if it's not plugged in, chances are your video device nodes will be reordered, and your PVR-250 won't work either |
[16:56:52] | kslater: | channel changing seems to be working now. |
[16:56:57] | wagnerrp: | unless you're using udev rules to make specific names |
[16:56:58] | sphery: | however, as wagnerrp said, since the HD-PVR and the PVR-x50 both have access to the exact same list of channels and use the same tuning approach (external channel change script), you can use the same Video Source for them--as long as the channel change script knows which STB to change |
[16:57:28] | kslater: | sphery: yeah, that should be working ok. |
[16:57:41] | sphery: | or, yeah, if it's the exact same STB, then just use the same Video Source, but put the 2 in an Input Group to prevent both from being used at the same time |
[16:57:43] | kslater: | and I think the /dev nodes are finally in control |
[16:57:48] | wagnerrp: | sphery: doesn't everyone have live compression on their mysql binary logs? |
[16:57:59] | sphery: | but don't set priority for HD-PVR |
[16:58:08] | sphery: | set it lower in Schedule Order |
[16:58:10] | sphery: | :) |
[16:59:05] | sphery: | and note that if you've defined the HD-PVR in MythTV and it's not working (not plugged in), MythTV will not know it's not usable and will have failed recordings whenever it tries to use it |
[16:59:16] | kslater: | sphery: Did I go the wrong way on the priorities? I thought I wanted a higher number for the better encoder. |
[16:59:54] | sphery: | kslater: good timing: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/536030#536030 |

[17:04:11] | wagnerrp: | maybe if this were BtrFS... |
[17:04:27] | sphery: | kslater: yeah, most people seem to think that input priority only compares against a specific show on the 2 different inputs, but there's only one priority, so it compares against everything else on the input |
[17:04:49] | sphery: | wagnerrp: well, it would be cutting edge on Linux :) |

[17:09:29] | wagnerrp: | meaning it's garbage |
[17:09:37] | wagnerrp: | you can hose up any filesystem if you have direct access to it |
[17:10:09] | monkeypet: | if not, I wanted to create a theme with less text and more pics so little kids can use it. Although my 4 yr old learned to read while having to navigate the mythtv menus :) |
[17:10:12] | wagnerrp: | at worst, it's poorly optimized to handle a certain type of loading pattern |

[17:19:44] | wagnerrp: | which of course cannot and should not ever be supported |
[17:19:57] | AndyCap: | heh, did anyone write something about implementation of that? |
[17:19:59] | wagnerrp: | as you cannot have DRM without a licensing body |
[17:20:12] | wagnerrp: | and a licensing body means HTML would no longer be an openly usable protocol |
[17:20:15] | sphery: | Ian Hickson, the leader of the WG at the time--and a Google employee!--said no way because it has no business being part of an open standard (and because it was completely insecure, anyway) |
[17:20:48] | AndyCap: | of course its insecure, the attacker and the recipient are one and the same, |
[17:20:48] | sphery: | I love that a Google employee squashed Google's hopes :) |
[17:21:20] | GreyFoxx: | Spher: I would be happy to pay for a a binary that does all of the work, I'd even pay for a hardware usb dongle to do the drm if need be. Just have the player accept keystrokes (so we can use lirc) |
[17:21:44] | GreyFoxx: | right now I use the wine/silverly netflix-desktop but it's a pain to have to switch from remote to mouse/keyboard |
[17:22:02] | kslater: | wagnerrp: all true on the btrfs 'issue'. I have an (ex) colleague who is crazy strict on any sort of potential exploit. He used to do support for a large-ish west coast ISP and hates the thought of ever having to rebuild a machine because of any sort of exploitable hole. |
[17:22:15] | kslater: | which is also why he is a freebsd zealot |
[17:22:57] | monkeypet: | for some reason, I always thought freebsd folks are cult like. |
[17:22:58] | sphery: | GreyFoxx: yeah, I use my XBox 360 for Netflix and Amazon Instant Prime... It's just easier to hit the Input button on my TV remote than to try to work around it all |
[17:23:28] | sphery: | a friend who uses MythTV got a Roku box for it (even though he had a Wii... I guess he wanted a better connection than its SDTV connection?) |
[17:23:44] | GreyFoxx: | spher: I would use my xbox but I refuse to pay MS for a gold live account just to have the "privilege" of paying netflix $8 a month to play content on hardware I already own |
[17:23:51] | wagnerrp: | monkeypet: i'm a freebsd user for no further reason than it was the only "distro" i tried that supported all my disk controller cards when migrating my fileserver from Win2k |
[17:23:55] | sphery: | or maybe he didn't like waving a remote around when trying to control it :) |
[17:23:56] | monkeypet: | sphery: all the newer remotes have a "netflix" button. My bluray player and tv have a big red netflix button on them. |
[17:24:15] | GreyFoxx: | My bluray player has a netflix client and I use it sometimes, but I find it glitchy :) |
[17:24:19] | sphery: | yeah, that's the problem with XBox--you have to have the Gold XBL membership to use Netflix or Amazon Instant apps |
[17:24:23] | GreyFoxx: | far more so than the software player |
[17:24:26] | GreyFoxx: | yeah |
[17:24:29] | GreyFoxx: | it's ridiculous |
[17:24:39] | GreyFoxx: | it would be one thhing if MS was providing the content |
[17:24:40] | sphery: | I have the XBL membership, anyway, for games, so it works for me |
[17:24:43] | wagnerrp: | of course i stuck around for the PF, jails, and ZFS |
[17:25:23] | sphery: | GreyFoxx: yeah, and it seems it actually discourages people from turning to the XBox for content--which seems to be counter to the approach they should be taking |
[17:25:34] | GreyFoxx: | Doh, the fam is calling me, time to go out visiting my parents |
[17:25:36] | wagnerrp: | is an "untangle box" some kind of commercial product? |
[17:25:37] | GreyFoxx: | yeah I agree |
[17:25:43] | GreyFoxx: | the mor useful the box |
[17:25:45] | sphery: | I heard Intel is actually working on a STB to kill the Google TV and Apple TV |
[17:25:50] | GreyFoxx: | the more I'd use it for everything |
[17:25:55] | GreyFoxx: | *heads out* |
[17:25:58] | sphery: | and, especially, cable |
[17:26:27] | monkeypet: | My smart TV has youtube,netflix,blah,blah fast also. Software is crap, but integrated into the TV. |
[17:26:37] | sphery: | they plan to allow per-content subscriptions (so you don't have to subscribe to AMC to get The Walking Dead, but just subscribe to the shows you want) |
[17:26:51] | sphery: | I can't see them being able to convince the players to allow this, though |
[17:27:11] | sphery: | though if they do, they'll likely succeed at killing cable |
[17:28:36] | monkeypet: | Even with so much software in the TV, i still use my trusty mac-mini-linux-booted mythfrontend box. |

[17:31:49] | wagnerrp: | kslater: the "better way" is to get a real PC to use as a frontend |
[17:32:22] | wagnerrp: | the raspberry pi is woefully underpowered, and even on raspbmc, it shows |
[17:32:26] | kslater: | yeah, but then I either have to go with the sleep setup of take the hit on power consumption which I'd like to avoid |

[17:33:23] | wagnerrp: | but if you want to leave it on all the time, something with laptop hardware like a mac mini will idle at just a few watts |

[17:35:30] | kslater: | so is anybody up to help with a troubleshooting session for an HD-PVR on my sole backend? |
[17:35:58] | kslater: | I get failed recordings right now |
[17:35:58] | wagnerrp: | probably not, but just ask your questions and idle for a bit |
[17:36:04] | wagnerrp: | someone will likely see it as respond at some point |
[17:36:23] | wagnerrp: | i know there has been some chatter recently about HDPVRs failing due to faulty power supplies |
[17:36:41] | wagnerrp: | many of the power supplies shipped with the HDPVRs are blowing caps and becoming unstable |
[17:36:51] | kslater: | scheduling seems to work ok and channel changes take place. I seem to be able to get zero length recordings pretty easily. |

[17:37:33] | wagnerrp: | twitchnln: in the US, the only real reliable/legal option is Schedules Direct |
[17:38:06] | wagnerrp: | they license guide data directly from tribune, and provide access to it to subscribed members |
[17:38:38] | sphery: | same data that TiVo users pay a fortune to access, but for only $25/year |

[17:38:50] | wagnerrp: | as for EIT, that is only available for broadcast channels |
[17:38:51] | sphery: | and it's /very/ high-quality data |
[17:39:07] | wagnerrp: | and even then, most stations don't provide more than the FCC-required 12hrs of data |
[17:39:19] | sphery: | that is SD data is high quality (OTA EIT is terrible quality, unreliable, and mostly useless for a real DVR) |
[17:39:36] | wagnerrp: | further, the data the do provide for those 12 hours us generally very cursory information |
[17:39:50] | wagnerrp: | often just the show title, and no specific episode information |
[17:40:06] | wagnerrp: | it's a bad experience that some users are willing to put up with |
[17:40:20] | sphery: | because, of course, MythTV is free, right? :) |
[17:40:31] | twitchnln: | i could work with that, it would beat the hell out of "2_1 unknown", etc... |
[17:40:42] | sphery: | (it's actually Free, as in Freedom, but has cost me a fortune over the years) |
[17:40:54] | ViperSBT: | I've been using, and liking, MythGallery for showing/managing my pictures, but as my collection of photos is starting to grow I'm feeling that it may be underpowered. Has anyone done anything else with the pictures, tied to MythTV, besides MythGallery? |
[17:41:08] | sphery: | twitchnln: http://www.schedulesdirect.org/ |
[17:41:11] | wagnerrp: | twitchnln: note that with a digital tuner, you're not likely to get much more than the local broadcast channels off cable |
[17:41:12] | sphery: | they have a 7-day free trial |
[17:41:40] | wagnerrp: | and that's going to be going away at some point, now that the FCC has lifted that requirement in favor of preventing "service theft" |
[17:41:55] | wagnerrp: | since you're on comcast, you may want to consider getting a cablecard tuner |
[17:42:02] | twitchnln: | ok, then i just need to figure out a way to match the digital channels that myth found to the data that schedules direct provides me |
[17:42:20] | wagnerrp: | mythtv is only allowed to access DRM-free content, but on comcast, that tends to be everything but the premiums |
[17:42:33] | twitchnln: | it's just a hdhr dual, no way to add a tuner, was xmas gift |
[17:43:02] | wagnerrp: | twitchnln: if you're lucky, your local broadcast channels should be re-transmitted over cable with their VCT and callsigns intact |
[17:43:27] | wagnerrp: | if so, you can just use the an antenna lineup from schedules direct, and most of the channels will be matched up automatically |
[17:43:59] | wagnerrp: | if not, you'll need to look up the XMLTV IDs for those channels on the SD website, and manually apply them to the respective channels in the channel editor |
[17:44:52] | wagnerrp: | the cable company's channel map is typically not available to standard clear qam tuners |
[17:45:15] | twitchnln: | thats what i'm finding out |
[17:45:43] | wagnerrp: | although... i was visiting my sister last week, and found their subchannel number matched the cable company's virtual mapping |
[17:46:04] | wagnerrp: | my local cableco doesn't do that, and mythtv doesn't try to use that information in any case |

[23:46:18] | duke_ellington: | Hello. I'm having trouble getting my PVR 500 tuner card to work in MythTV. If I try to change the channel in LiveTV, the frontend freezes up, goes black and drops back to the menu with "video frame buffer failed too many times". I also noticed once mythtv has accessed the tuners I can no longer view them properly with VLC. They skip, buffer and are sometimes scrambled. Rebooting or |
[23:46:18] | duke_ellington: | reloading the ivtv module fixes this. Any ideas? I'm using Arch. |

[23:54:18] | kusznir: | HI all: In a followup to a conversation I had with wagnerrp last night, I'm wondering if someone can let me know how I can extract DVD ISOs on a myth system (eg, using linux commands) to use with myth video. I'm looking at archiving my DVD collection on disk much like mp3s for music. |
[23:54:54] | [R]: | full isos or just the movies? |
[23:55:11] | kusznir: | My searches online are mostly trying to give various ways to extract/re-encode to mkv or m4u's rather than the full iso which is what was recommended here. wagnerrp gave a windows program he used, but I don't have windows. |
[23:55:44] | kusznir: | [R] I was thinking the full .isos, but I'm open to suggestions. |
[23:55:58] | [R]: | vobcopy and/or dvdbackup |

[23:56:48] | kusznir: | [R] does dvdbackup decss the dvd too? |
[23:56:51] | [R]: | yup |
[23:57:02] | kusznir: | cool. Thanks. |
[23:58:14] | kusznir: | [R] you wouldn't happen to have a recommended invocation of dvdbackup, would you? (if not, I'll start the man page...just so far my guesses of what are the right switches when it comes to video work often seem wrong...) |
[23:58:33] | [R]: | man dvdbackup |
