[00:05:58] tonsofpcs: is there hardware-based transcoding? (ubuntu 18.04 host, v29) if so, is nvidia geforce gt supported? I see VDAPU supports it but that's just for playback, no?

[00:50:10] mack-: tonsofpcs: as far as I know, correct. No hardware-assisted transcoding in mythtv. The way I understand it, it's just not worth it. HandBrake took the time to code GPU Acceleration in, and for almost all tasks the benefit is marginal.
[00:50:42] mack-: or you trade the speed for quality
[00:50:50] tonsofpcs: ok, thanks :)
[00:50:59] tonsofpcs: now to figure out how to set up transcoding since I have a CPU that can handle it
[00:51:49] mack-: for the most basic stuff to just replace the file with a smaller sized file, it just works out of the box
[00:52:19] Kwisher: tonsofpcs: https://forum.mythtv.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1261
[00:52:22] tonsofpcs: yea.... I updated from 0.25 to 0.27.2 and then migrated that over to update to v29
[00:52:25] tonsofpcs: :)
[00:52:31] Kwisher: that script works for me
[00:52:36] tonsofpcs: thanks Kwisher
[00:53:08] tonsofpcs: I'm thinking of doing it without edits and keeping the cutlist, I presume that's relatively easy to figure out
[00:53:24] tonsofpcs: or maybe even running commflag after transcode
[00:53:24] mack-: for the stuff I migrate off the myth box to keep, I use myth2kodi script
[00:53:48] mack-: encapsulated in a handbrake transcode script
[00:54:11] tonsofpcs: I don't really need the transcode other than to save bandwidth going to clients on wifi
[00:54:24] tonsofpcs: and maybe to make the pi run a bit cooler
[00:54:50] tonsofpcs: (it's wired but I've noticed that even the on-chip mpeg2 decode seems more taxing than mpeg4... could be wrong though)
[00:55:29] [R]: well yeah, rpi is a piece of garbge
[00:56:08] Kwisher: they have their purpose
[00:56:18] mack-: it's worth the $40
[00:56:19] tonsofpcs: [R]: eh, it works fine.
[00:56:33] tonsofpcs: been using it with mpeg2 for 5 years now
[00:56:42] mack-: if I want something better, I won't spend $40  :)
[00:56:58] tonsofpcs: just figure since i now have the backend hardware to support it nicer I may as well do so
[00:57:12] tonsofpcs: unless you have a good frontend for operatv apps on my bluray player?
[00:58:47] mack-: I never knew such a thing existed :)
[00:58:59] tonsofpcs: exactly why I have the pi.
[00:59:12] tonsofpcs: it's the 'new' sony bluray player software library, I think
[00:59:23] tonsofpcs: let's see what I can find, haven't really looked
[01:00:46] tonsofpcs: looks like it's called "vewd" now
[01:02:37] mack-: oh, operatv was a media player based on the opera browser. I was thinking opera as a genre or programming material.
[01:03:00] mack-: was thinking that had to be a niche market
[01:03:23] mack-: but would definitely want something better than a Pi for a better audio experience :)
[01:06:47] tonsofpcs: I mean, it's a niche market as it is anyway :-p
[01:07:03] tonsofpcs: mack-: huh? the pi outputs both PCM and encoded audio over HDMI...
[01:07:16] tonsofpcs: it's not like I'm using the PWM sound 'card'

[02:13:39] mack-: tonsofpcs: I was getting at someone who enjoys opera enough to subscribe to a service dedicated to the genre would be wanting HD audio passthrough. Not available on the Pi.

[02:37:28] tonsofpcs: mack-: I mean, someone doing that would be using an external DAC connected by USB with a 100% oxygen-free copper USB cable with direction arrows on it...
[02:38:09] tonsofpcs: on its own circuit also wired with oxygen-free copper in-wall 4/0 wires
