[01:54:14] kichigai: Hello, I'm upgrading my copy of Mythbuntu and I'm wondring if there's anyway I can backup relevant data to avoid needing to nuke everything and just overwrite all the Mythbuntu 12.04 stuff.
[01:56:18] wagnerrp: just upgrade. don't nuke anything
[01:58:00] kichigai: How do I do that as part of Mythbuntu?
[01:58:13] kichigai: Specifically, Mythbuntu 12.04.
[01:58:37] kichigai: Their upgrade instructions involve stepping through Ubuntu versions from 12.04 to 12.10 and so forth.
[01:59:07] kichigai: I've got my database backed up in like four places, so if it risks the database I'm willing to take it on.
[02:00:55] wagnerrp: not sure about the specifics of upgrading the ubuntu packages
[02:01:22] wagnerrp: but if you install a newer copy of mythtv on top of an older, it will automatically update all it's internal stuff

[15:29:43] wagnerrp: i don't know anything about "service", and i avoid "sudo" if possible
[15:29:54] wagnerrp: see if the backend is spitting out logs
[15:30:14] ubuntuaddicted: on ubuntu 12.04, i ran init.d scripts using service

[15:31:21] ubuntuaddicted: wagnerrp, oh, the server is definitely running and is working fine BUT currently if I want to stop the server i run mythtv-setup just so i can stop the server.

[15:42:26] ubuntuaddicted: bill6502, thanks you so much
[15:43:04] ubuntuaddicted: bill6502, are you familiar with ubuntu ?
[15:43:40] ubuntuaddicted: bill6502, why did they move mythbackend from being able to be stopped and started from /etc/init.d/ where I would use sudo service foo start/stop

Maybe the 'buntu folks are trying to force users into using the Upstart method directly. I always used the upstart method since 10.04 I believe.
[15:46:54] bill6502: In other words, previously, both methods worked.

[16:58:42] ubuntuaddicted: bill6502, what I don't like about this new /etc/init/mythtv-backend is that i can't use tab to auto-complete my command. so if I type "sudo status myth" I would love to be able to hit tab and have it autocomplete like it did when it was in /etc/init.d
[17:00:00] ubuntuaddicted: bill6502, ok, now that i named the symlink mythtv-backend I can autocomplete again, thanks for your help

[18:10:04] justinh: a blow torch? You have to be careful with a hot air gun as it is, never mind a blow torch. Heh
[18:11:59] justinh: usually reworking a BGA device is a one-way operation with a simple heat gun you might otherwise use for paint stripping or heat shrinking things
[18:13:13] justinh: one way as in.. when it's off, it ain't going back on. Though re-balling gear & proper rework tools are available for hobby use – but the cost is still prohibitive for one-offs. Leave it to specialists unless you've nothing to lose
[18:14:57] justinh: wagnerrp: found a custom option eventually. And a means of entering IP addresses rather than hostnames since the BE changed hostname when I installed it (I changed it back) & there's no way to clean out the router's cache without wiping everything
[18:15:53] justinh: I liked that router initially. When it was new, my laptop connected to it 1st time every time no matter what. It's grown out of that phase now & I have to use the 'troubleshooter' most times
[18:16:25] justinh: I'll see if I can set it up to hand out static IPs via DHCP. That might fix it

[19:25:18] justinh: it needs the back opened out a fair bit though. It'll be too hot in there with the doors shut all the time

[21:49:23] zpertee: Hello. I'm new to mythtv and running into a few issues and hoping someone can take a few minutes to help me out. I have a very large computer network at home (7 homes and a business). Internet sharing is the main focus at this point. I'm hoping to introduce tv services. I'd like to capture the signal, convert it to IP, and then rebroadcast to the tvs in the homes. There's a million...
[21:49:25] zpertee: ...options to stream to mobile, but not many back to tv. I don't care about anything other than live tv at this point. \
[21:50:54] zpertee: I also it need it to be easy to use so that those of the older generation, non-computer savvy can make it go. I think mythtv is part of the solution, but what else do I need?
[21:51:14] [R]: "else"?
[21:52:05] justinh: dekarl: I surely will
[21:52:55] justinh: just wondering wth happened. Me & wife just watched a film, I had 2 little bottles of wine & now I'm absolutely trashed. I used to be able to keep up (almost) with MythTV developers
[21:53:29] zpertee: [R]: What do I need in the homes to convert it back to analog tv output? I don't want fancy menus or anything like that. Just the most basic box and an IR remote to change channels.
[21:53:44] [R]: mythtv is a program that runs on comptuers
[21:53:47] [R]: so you need a computer plugged into the tv
[21:54:51] justinh: sounds like a job for the utter boxes of crap they call slingboxes
[21:55:19] justinh: cheaper than a full PC, too :-)
[21:55:38] zpertee: Makes sense. Hardware recommendations? Can I strip the menu down to make it extremely simple and as close to real cable service as possible? We live in the boonies out here, only have one location with cable access, and then all the rest (other family members) get fed off of a tower we've erected.
[21:56:10] zpertee: The problem with slingbox is that there's still a menu and it's a royal pain in the hind end to change channels
[21:56:10] [R]: download myth and play around with it
[21:56:48] justinh: zpertee: welcome to the reality of your situation
[21:57:42] zpertee: justinh: Nod. I understand the reality. I'm just stubborn enough that I don't like to give in. It seems like there should be a way to do what I'm trying to do. I just need to find it...
[21:58:20] justinh: if you have enough network bandwidth, VLC is more than capable of streaming channels over IP
[21:58:31] justinh: but then what would you use for clients?

[21:59:20] zpertee: That's the issue. I have 170Mbps between homes. It would all be LAN traffic so no issues there.
[21:59:22] justinh: IMHO MythTV isn't ideal for livetv viewing in any situation, let alone over a WAN

[21:59:57] justinh: can't you just get satellite TV?
[22:00:13] justinh: ok so you have to pay multiple times, but it saves a motherload of hassle
[22:00:46] zpertee: justinh: I appreciate your honesty. If this isn't the right solution then I don't want to waste hours down the wrong track. And yes I'm starting to think that satellite is the way to go and call it a day.
[22:00:50] justinh: actually, I've yet to even try live tv in 0.27
[22:01:26] justinh: zpertee: well with myth, you'll need about one tuner per household.. and that's assuming only one TV in each house
[22:01:57] justinh: and assumes one channel per tuner. With digital (OTA) you might get more than one actual channel per tuner useable at once
[22:02:15] zpertee: justinh: yep. I thought about getting hdhomerun with 3 tuners. One per household. Then I would just need client devices.
[22:03:02] justinh: I've tried 'other' frontends on low-cost hardware. there's no getting away from the fact that with mythtv you need a 'real' PC for a client
[22:03:28] justinh: it needn't be expensive though
[22:03:31] MMlosh (MMlosh!~MMlosh@2001:470:6f:23:88f6:89b8:439c:5460) has quit (Client Quit)
[22:06:01] zpertee: obviously this isn't mythtv, but this: http://www.matrixstream.com/IPTV_H.264_IMX_i2 . . . S_Server.php looks interesting and incredibly expensive. I wish I could find a way to replicate it using cheaper, more limited means
[22:06:33] justinh: zpertee: then what do you use as clients?
[22:06:55] zpertee: They make some sort of STB from the looks of it.
[22:08:06] justinh: hell even myth with high end PCs would be cheaper than that
[22:08:32] zpertee: Exactly... I love the idea of what they got going on. I need it to 1/100th the size.
[22:08:32] justinh: so 7 houses.. you'd need at least 2 HDHR 3 tuner boxes...
[22:09:00] justinh: and as a minimum, something like the Intel NUC box as a frontend
[22:09:30] justinh: but I wouldn't personally rely on accelerated anything working on Intel video
[22:09:38] zpertee: or this http://www.silicondust.com/products/models/tech3-8us-2x4/
[22:09:43] justinh: so you'd need enough CPU grunt to decode in software
[22:10:32] justinh: might be cheaper to buy 2 or 3 consumer level devices though
[22:10:44] justinh: probably would be actually
[22:11:22] zpertee: yeah. Probably would be the best be to just get one of the HDHRs for each household. 3 tvs per household.
[22:11:50] justinh: you'd need a bit of a mother of a backend to cope with that lot
[22:12:24] justinh: if only for all the scheduling of livetv events, to keep it responsive

[22:14:30] zpertee: My backend is one of a kind. Very rural location. My in-laws own 2000 acres. On that property is a barn where I'm storing all of the equipment. I have a 50ft tv tower with a wireless AP at the top. Each of the homes then have an AP pointed back. 100Mbps down, 10 Mbps, and 170+ Mbps between homes across our wireless LAN.
