| [10:20:56] | jamesba: | For people who were curious about what it was I was working on and couldn't talk about. http://www.bbc.co.uk/rd/publications/whitepaper194.shtml is a white-paper detailing a specification for an HTTP-based API to allow the provision of remote clients which interface with set-top-boxes and similar devices. One of the current server implementations (and the most complete) is a pure-python server which interfaces with a slightly modified MythTV on a Myt |
| [10:20:56] | jamesba: | hbuntu box providing many of the capabilities discussed in the document. This server will be released (probably on sourceforge) some time in the next month or two once we have all the internal paperwork signed off to do so. |

| [14:07:21] | danielk22: | jamesba: cool :) |
| [14:08:57] | jamesba: | danielk22, laga: thanks |
| [14:10:00] | jamesba: | we'll be releasing a lot of stuff licensed under Apache 2.0 so as to make it as open as possible, including a fairly generic python library for building such servers. The Stuff that interacts with MythTV is, naturally, going to be released under the GPL |
| [14:11:40] | jamesba: | there are other servers which comply with the spec, but they're all internal only stuff (and not MythTV related) |
| [14:14:59] | danielk22: | jamesba: what does this provide above upnp controllers and media renderers? |
| [14:16:12] | jamesba: | it's a different thing entirely |
| [14:16:28] | danielk22: | (I just read the abstract ;) |
| [14:16:31] | jamesba: | UPnP is mostly about routing content around a network |
| [14:16:56] | jamesba: | with control elements which are about serving interfaces from the server directly |
| [14:17:37] | jamesba: | this is about totally independent interfaces on remote devices, which can be customised to fit a) the needs of the user, and b) the properties of the device |
| [14:18:30] | jamesba: | a) is pretty important to us, as the realisation that different disabled people have different and incompatible accesibility requirements was one of our motivators |
| [14:18:53] | jamesba: | so making a single UI which suits all of them would be impossible |
| [14:19:25] | jamesba: | and although a STB could have multiple UI styles to choose between it can't really have one for everyone |
| [14:19:34] | jamesba: | (less of an issue for MythTV, obviously) |
| [14:20:13] | jamesba: | so having a client designed around the user's individual needs interfacing with a server speaking a standard protocol was very tempting |
| [14:20:56] | jamesba: | UPnP doesn't really provide that without DLNA stuff, and even there the support is anaemic, and, to my mind, employing the wrong technologies to produce a fairly iffy cludge |
| [14:21:07] | danielk22: | Hmm, so is this functionally equivalent to adding an XML "UI" instead of a DNLA style HTML interface to UPnP ? |
| [14:21:24] | jamesba: | sort of |
| [14:21:48] | jamesba: | UPnP really is a different sort of technology |
| [14:21:59] | danielk22: | but I guess without all the heft of supporting ancillary UPnP stuff. |
| [14:22:11] | jamesba: | that's certainly a consideration |
| [14:23:51] | danielk22: | Thanks, I'm going to need to read the spec. Any guess as to industry interest in implementing this? |
| [14:24:27] | jamesba: | Can't talk about any specifics on that at this point, but there's been some interest expressed, nothing firm yet. |
| [14:25:14] | jamesba: | There's a good chance we'll be submitting the current spec as a member contribution to the W3C fairly soon as well |
| [14:26:12] | danielk22: | Yeah, I realize it is early on. Just trying to gouge where this is on the pure-to-applied R&D spectrum. |
| [14:26:53] | jamesba: | mid-level I'd say. It works, we have implementations (though of a quality for research, not for release as a product) |
| [14:27:12] | jamesba: | that said the version number, 0.5.1 should give a good indication that it's far from finished ;) |
| [14:27:27] | danielk22: | Hey, we're at 0.24 ;) |
| [14:28:34] | jamesba: | true |
| [14:29:38] | jamesba: | there will be a supporting document explaining the design decisions in a more high-level way |
| [14:30:04] | jamesba: | but it's been held up in approval before release (the spec itself went through with almost no comments, typical) |

| [14:46:24] | jamesba: | oh, a mythtv related issue. I've just checked out the latest stable 0.24 fixes branch of the git repository, and there's no myththemes directory in the root like there used to be on the svn repository. Does this mean the themes are no longer handled seperately and I can just not bother with a seperate build-step in my scripts? |

| [15:07:41] | voyo: | I'v made some nice feature to mythweb – posibility to setup order of channels with drag&drop. But I have some questions to person who is responsible/developing mythweb. (I need to know if I implemented my things right way). |
| [15:08:50] | voyo: | any1 here ? |
| [15:10:09] | stuartm: | jamesba: actually the opposite, although those themes are still available from a repository (different one, but still under MythTV on github) we're moving towards having most themes downloaded/installed from the new theme browser within mythfrontend |
| [15:10:20] | wagnerrp: | jamesba: myththemes are now downloaded through the theme chooser, and a web service CaptM set up a few months back |
| [15:12:14] | stuartm: | two reasons for that 1) greater exposure for third party themes 2) it removes the assumption that people can dump themes with us and we'll perform all future maintenance, themers will remain responsible for their themes even after release |

| [15:13:57] | wagnerrp: | while not yet implemented, there is planned a web interface that themes can be uploaded and updated by the author, and automatically validated for DTD compliance |
| [15:14:24] | stuartm: | jamesba: we'll maintain a list of themes and the download location on our services.mythtv.org url, frontend grabs the list from there and displays the preview/description in the UI, when the user choses to install the theme it will be downloaded, unpacked and installed |

| [18:26:22] | Beirdo: | dropping the free compiler chain for a Microsoft one will not ingratiate ourselves to the OSS community |
| [18:26:25] | danielk22: | we can also compile under VS, but not support it. Like Solaris/BSD for many years. |
| [18:26:32] | Beirdo: | true |
| [18:27:15] | Beirdo: | but if I understand correctly, the proposal is one new header per library? That's not that bad, really |
| [18:27:24] | Beirdo: | still is a bit messy. |
| [18:28:11] | danielk22: | Beirdo: seems to me if you're running ms windows already using the vendor's compiler isn't a huge leap. |

| [18:30:13] | Chutt: | isn't the actual compiler bit free? |
| [18:30:43] | danielk22: | Chutt: afaik, even the basic VS is gratis. |
| [18:31:18] | danielk22: | The whole suite is in the low professional software range >$700, <$1000 |
| [18:32:52] | Chutt: | so it's still a gratis-free compiler, just not free-free |

| [18:37:41] | dblain: | just got back. |
| [18:39:08] | dblain: | danielk22: VS uses two directives to export and import symbols (dllexport & dllimport) while GCC just uses one. |
| [18:40:27] | dblain: | MPUBLIC already exists and is being used, it's just a matter of having a specific define per library. |
| [18:40:27] | danielk22: | Right, but the GCC one is optional. Can we just export all symbols under VS? |
| [18:41:49] | dblain: | Is it still optional since the use_hidesyms change went in? |
| [18:42:46] | dblain: | If I understand it correctly, if you are using GCC 4+ it will use the -fvisibility=hidden compiler option |
| [18:43:17] | dblain: | effectively requiring the use of the attribute on public classes/methods |
| [18:43:59] | dblain: | either way, I was just getting tired of re-merging my change every time there is a large update and figured I'd put the commit question out there. |
| [18:45:11] | dblain: | As for mingw, my changes are a long way off from being able to compile all parts of MythTv, so removing it is not an option right now. |
| [18:46:45] | Beirdo: | are they benign for compiling in Linux, OSX, mingw? |
| [18:47:16] | Beirdo: | if it breaks any of those, there will be people screaming for sure |
| [18:48:12] | danielk22: | dblain: Yeah, I understand. It doesn't sound too onerous, just wondering if something less complex can be done. |
| [18:49:32] | dblain: | should be, testing linux again now. It's code that has always been there, just not correct for VS. I was going to change it to also use Q_DECL_EXPORT/Q_DECL_IMPORT which is QT's way of solving this problem. (trying to use as much QT to hide platform differences as possible). |
| [18:49:48] | dblain: | But I don't HAVE to use the QT support |

| [19:03:09] | Captain_Murdoch: | dblain, what's the reason for having a myth*exp.h for each library, is that a VS-ism or for clarity |
| [19:05:38] | dblain: | no, it's needed so that it can define the proper MXXX_PUBLIC constant for the library. If it's compiling code that will be exposed, then it needs dllexport. If it's including a header from another library, those headers need MXXX_PUBLIC to be dllimport. |
| [19:07:25] | dblain: | if both used MPUBLIC, then it can only be defined as one or the other so one of the conditions will be wrong. |

| [20:14:07] | abqjp: | iamlindoro: actually, moving the channel-change to be part of the signal-monitor is fairly new, and could be contributing to the problem. |
| [20:15:56] | iamlindoro: | abqjp: Ah, could be-- Though I still have done a fair amount of reading that suggests v4l in modern ubuntu has tons and tons of issues |
| [20:16:09] | iamlindoro: | abqjp: Crashing drivers that never crashed before, spontaneous resets |

| [20:17:40] | abqjp: | I run Fedora 13, and the only zero byte files I get are because my HD-PVR needs power cycled. Happens about once every two months. |
| [20:18:55] | sphery: | stuartm: don't remember--but I still think the difference is small enough to not worry about. Now, if we were making a library that's the basis of tons of applications and/or entire systems, I might feel differently. But since we're only really using symvis in libmyth* (and, IIRC, not all of those), there's not much savings to be had. I'm showing a release build of MythTV 0.24-fixes as having 41.3MiB of libs (my /usr/local/lib ... |
| [20:19:01] | sphery: | ... structure)--and that includes 11.5MiB of plugins (that aren't using symvis). |
| [20:19:04] | iamlindoro: | abqjp: In the case of thise thread, the user suggests that it affects all of his cards, including digital tuners |
| [20:19:15] | abqjp: | I do agree that Myth could do a better job of error recovery. However, it is hard to do when you are trying to please everyone. I wanted to put a time-out in the Signal Monitor, but was told I couldn't because in DVB land it can take a while for a channel to come " |
| [20:19:19] | abqjp: | "on line" |
| [20:21:56] | stuartm: | sphery: it's certainly not the primary benefit, that's avoiding the symbol noise from stuff that's entirely internal to the libraries |
| [20:23:09] | abqjp: | Myth should never get stuck in a 't' state, though. There is a 45 (I think) time-out for the actual tuning part of the operation. I should probably take a look at that — maybe with gigem's help |
| [20:24:12] | sphery: | stuartm: yeah, I just think the benefit isn't worth the cost (and I will fully admit I hate having dev-tool-specific garbage spread throughout the repo) |

| [20:47:40] | elmojo: | abqjp: do you have any ideas why the "Payload start" takes so long with the HD-PVR? |
| [20:47:48] | elmojo: | sounds like it might be out of our control |
| [20:47:53] | iamlindoro: | elmojo: as a counterpoint, I have one DVB tuner that was rock solid on 10.04 and earlier, which now resets the driver every time you try to record |

| [20:48:38] | elmojo: | maybe we should post a warning or put it on the website to avoid 10.10 |
| [20:48:40] | abqjp: | elmojo: I am guessing that it may have something to do with keyframes being over 2 seconds apart. |
| [20:48:59] | sphery: | elmojo: coupled with hearsay from the list (where it seems most who are reporting the issues upgraded to 10.10 /and/ 0.24-fixes at the same time)... |
| [20:49:22] | iamlindoro: | elmojo: I'd hate for my single data point to be responsible for a warning like that-- what we really need is people to go from .23 to .24 on 10.04, then test the same upgrade on 10.10, etc. |
| [20:49:29] | sphery: | but--at least for me--it's all conjecture and I have no proof (and it may well be upstream kernel or V4L/DVB changes that just haven't settled out right or something) |
| [20:49:40] | elmojo: | abqjp: oh yeah, forgot about that, isn't there a backend setting to tell it to wait for that or not? |
| [20:49:43] | abqjp: | elmojo: To me, the "proper" fix would be no interruption at all .... Have Myth do all the preparation work for the new file before making the "switch", so it is seemless. Might take spawning a thread to do the work. |
| [20:50:47] | elmojo: | abqjp: sounds scary – seemless file switching for a stream would be cool though – right now this causes the user to lose 2 – 9 seconds of recordings at the transition point |
| [20:52:45] | tgm4883: | elmojo, iamlindoro i've had to powercycle my HDPVR on 10.04 w/ 0.24 as it will apparenlty get stuck "recording" and all following recordings are 0-byte length |
| [20:52:54] | tgm4883: | as it looks like that is what you are discussing |
| [20:53:13] | iamlindoro: | tgm4883: Resetting HD-PVR hardware is aside from all that |
| [20:53:27] | iamlindoro: | the HD-PVR hardware getting hung up isn't something we can do anything about |
| [20:53:27] | elmojo: | tgm4883: we are discussing the state of the dvb drivers in recent distro/kernel releases |
| [20:53:32] | abqjp: | I have not looked at the code, so I don't know how scary it would be. I did notice that you get that two second pause even if you are behind Live, when the file switch happens. So, it is not just loosing some of the show, but the delay in starting to *read* from the new file. That delay in reading could be harder to fix. |
| [20:53:45] | iamlindoro: | The issue at hand here appears independent of tuner type |

| [20:54:27] | elmojo: | abqjp: yes, the actual playback ringbuffer switch is an entirely different issue |
| [20:54:29] | iamlindoro: | But *does* tend to coincide with a total distro upgrade, often to the latest, which is in turn blamed on myth as the most obvious probably culprit-- just that in this case, it may not actually *be* the culprit since little has changed that could have caused such a pandemic |
| [20:55:10] | elmojo: | tgm4883: so when your HD-PVR gets in the "dead" state does cat'ing the video device yield video? |
| [20:55:22] | elmojo: | wondering if it's the control side that is getting hosed |
| [20:55:28] | sphery: | abqjp: out of curiosity, which distro/version are you using? |
| [20:55:33] | abqjp: | Fedora 13 |
| [20:55:34] | tgm4883: | elmojo, haven't tried, but I'll certainly do it next time to test |
| [20:56:08] | elmojo: | tgm4883: even if it's still recording that doesn't help us if we can't communicate/control the device |
| [20:56:26] | sphery: | someone on the thread mentioned seeing the problems after upgrading to F14 (from F13)... maybe it's just upstream kernel or V4L/DVB or drivers or ... Anyone want to compare version info for F13->F14 and Ubuntu 10.04 -> 10.10? |
| [20:56:32] | tgm4883: | elmojo, ok, the only indication that I see that it thinks it's recording is the blue halo is lit up |
| [20:56:52] | abqjp: | tgm4883: I have a patch which (in theory) tells the HD-PVR to switch to a different video input, and then back, when it has trouble with the HD-PVR. I have not had any luck testing it though, since I only have that problem about every 7–9 weeks — So I don't know if it helps or not. |
| [20:57:39] | elmojo: | abqjp: are you saying that since you've put your patch into use you haven't had an issue? :) |
| [20:57:42] | tgm4883: | abqjp, yea it would be nice to know if something common causes it that we can reproduce |
| [20:58:09] | tgm4883: | elmojo, the issue is infrequent |
| [20:58:18] | abqjp: | elmojo: according to my logs, that code has not been triggered. |
| [20:58:48] | elmojo: | ah, cool, should be interesting when it happens if it helps |
| [20:58:58] | abqjp: | tgm4883: if you want to try the patch give me your email address and I will send it to you. |
| [20:59:39] | elmojo: | abqjp: I'd like to try it too – between the 3 of us we should be to trigger more quickly |
| [20:59:53] | elmojo: | you can send to my mythtv.org alias |
| [21:00:12] | abqjp: | elmojo: will do. |

| [21:12:40] | elmojo: | abqjp: does your patch save the current recording? |
| [21:15:06] | abqjp: | I am not sure I understand the question. When the recording starts, the Signal Monitor is started to make sure the HD-PVR is producing valid output. The recording won't start until the Signal Monitor indicates that everything is fine. That patch tells the Signal Monitor to toggle the input of the HD-PVR if it is getting those resource errors. |
| [21:15:29] | elmojo: | abqjp: ok, I understand now |
| [21:17:44] | tgm4883: | hmm, i wonder what happens if it toggles it and the errors continue |
| [21:17:52] | tgm4883: | keeps toggling thousands of times? |
| [21:18:49] | abqjp: | tgm4883: it would toggle once for every 5 resource errors. |
| [21:19:15] | tgm4883: | abqjp, hmm, might want to build something in there as a limiter |
| [21:19:46] | tgm4883: | just seems bad to toggle it repeatedly as that could be thousands of times if it doesn't stop the errors |
| [21:19:56] | abqjp: | tgm4883: agreed. This was really just a proof of concept. Spur of the moment for me to offer to let others try it. |

| [21:48:44] | j-rod: | I presume mythnetvision could do netflix if there were appropriate silverlight support |
| [21:48:59] | j-rod: | heh. exactly what I was thinking :) |
| [21:49:02] | iamlindoro: | assuming that silverlight support extended to Qt/Webkit, sure |
| [21:49:25] | j-rod: | webkit and silverlight definitely get along fine |
| [21:49:36] | iamlindoro: | If their streaming catalog has an API, it could theoretically already work on Windows/OS X |

| [21:50:01] | iamlindoro: | Would need some minor tweaks to MNV to handle the authentication parts, but probably not all that much |
| [21:50:06] | j-rod: | its got a pretty rich api, from what I understand |

| [21:50:21] | iamlindoro: | close, but not identical anyway |
| [21:50:31] | j-rod: | yeah, that's why I was qualifying it |
| [21:50:54] | iamlindoro: | Anyway, probably wouldn't be the world's toughest project to add, but I don't have Netflix so no interest |
| [21:51:17] | iamlindoro: | (which obviously again presumes Qt/Webkit + Silverlight on Mac and Windows are all cool) |

| [21:56:08] | j-rod: | not sure exactly what its using under the covers though |
| [21:56:09] | iamlindoro: | Then again, that would also presuppose fixing issues with python bindings installing on both windows and OS X |
| [21:56:21] | iamlindoro: | Which means free netflix for wagnerrp too ;) |
| [21:56:39] | j-rod: | heh |
| [21:56:46] | j-rod: | they do offer a month free to try it out |
| [21:57:03] | j-rod: | I don't care enough to bankroll it myself, I've got umpteen other devices that do netflix now |
| [21:57:46] | j-rod: | wd tv live hub is working reasonably well for mythtv recordings playback over upnp, netflix streaming, and movies via local copies |
| [22:00:39] | wagnerrp: | iamlindoro: yeah, i should look into how to install those properly one of these days |
| [22:00:45] | wagnerrp: | i dont think it would take much |
| [22:00:56] | Unhelpful (Unhelpful!~quassel@rockbox/developer/Unhelpful) has joined #mythtv | |
| [22:01:08] | wagnerrp: | i dont think any of the actual code uses stuff that wouldnt work on linux |
| [22:01:28] | iamlindoro: | wagnerrp: It tends to be the primary limiting factor in getting MNV to work on those platforms-- or rather, it theoretically is the only one, as MNV should work fine on either so long as its deps are met |
| [22:03:06] | wagnerrp: | the problem i have is that every windows application ive ever seen that uses python includes its own copy of the interpreter |
| [22:03:10] | wagnerrp: | i dont want to do that |
| [22:03:46] | Unhelpful: | haven't used mythtv in ages, and i'm trying to set it up on a new system. mythtv has appropriate GRANTs on mythconverg, but it hangs filling the initial DB. -v database shows *no* queries executed after it gets the schema lock, it just prints 'Upgrading to MythTV schema version 1226' and then sits.. this is mythtv v0.24 on arch linux. any ideas? |
| [22:03:53] | wagnerrp: | i dont know what the proper mechanism for finding it through the environment would be |
| [22:04:11] | iamlindoro: | Unhelpful: wrong channel, see /topic |
| [22:04:36] | Unhelpful: | oh! terribly sorry, didn't even notice! actually used to develop, but clearly this is a user problem. ;) |

| [22:55:15] | j-rod: | wagnerrp: I care not about what Windows does. Mac OS X at least has a sane python of its own out of the box. :) |
| [22:55:34] | j-rod: | (granted, its a somewhat dated one now — 2.6.1) |
| [23:03:24] | sphery: | markk: Why I think we should just drop the animation rate and sort out the broken animations later: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/472059#472059 (and that topic has been coming up, regularly, since 0.22 or so). |

| [23:54:24] | markk: | sphery: I couldn't agree more – but after last week's discussion, I decided that I needed to step away from the UI stuff. It's a can of worms. I'm more than happy to help out on any rendering/painting type issues and implementations but I just don't have the time to start pushing/leading on it |
| [23:55:41] | sphery: | heh, fair enough. I'll try pushing stuartm to let us change it to /30 (or some other value the UI guys can agree on) and see what breaks |
| [23:56:05] | sphery: | (knowing full well he's said he doesn't have any connection to the /70 that's there, now) |
| [23:56:56] | sphery: | just want his (and iamlindoro's and ...) agreement since he has a couple of themes that may need fixing in the wake of the change |
| [23:57:44] | iamlindoro: | I've never had any control over animation speed before, I doubt I'll have to make any changes :) |
