| [00:00:44] | stuartm: | on balance I guess if the user is resetting everything else then it does |
| [00:00:47] | sphery: | So --reset doesn't actually start mythfrontend. That means users wouldn't see the end result until they restart mythfrontend (assuming it's running when they --reset) and we don't have a keybinding equivalent to CLEAR_SETTINGS_CACHE |
| [00:01:23] | sphery: | but that's probably ok--I'm guessing most would shut down mythfrontend and do a --reset or would at least restart mythfrontend after the --reset |
| [00:01:34] | wagnerrp: | sphery: i went ahead and closed 9174, since the reported behavior is now impossible |
| [00:01:45] | wagnerrp: | brian can open up a new ticket for the secondary issue should he wish |
| [00:01:52] | sphery: | sounds good to me |

| [00:03:17] | sphery: | stuartm: I'll put adding keybindings reset to --reset on my todo. thanks for the idea |
| [00:05:59] | stuartm: | thank iamlindoro, if he hadn't mentioned --reset yesterday then I wouldn't have thought about it |
| [00:10:37] | sphery: | iamlindoro: thanks :) ^^^ |
| [00:15:19] | sphery: | stuartm: so --reset seems to only reset the Appearance settings (plus Theme + Country), not all settings. Did we want it to do more than that? |
| [00:26:28] | xris: | sphery: "reset to default" hurray! |
| [00:26:33] | xris: | ..keys... |
| [00:28:49] | sphery: | Heh, yeah--lots of people have mentioned that on the lists, so it's about time I got it in. I had planned to have it in before 0.24. Anyway, enjoy! |
| [00:29:40] | xris: | it would have been handy 5 years ago when I was writing the key editor in myth web. :) |

| [10:10:37] | stuarta: | yeah, i'd put it on my todo list, but i've stopped putting things there as i never get to look at it |
| [10:12:40] | stuartm: | benefits to doing it 'the right way'™ include code simplifications around translation of default group names |

| [10:40:21] | stuartm: | I've never liked GetTopItemPos(), we should just be doing the right thing internally, but since I don't have the interest in working on that atm it will have to do |
| [10:49:37] | paul-h: | stuartm: ? |
| [10:55:09] | stuartm: | remembering position by supplying the top position, don't like it, that's supposed to be a purely internal value and shouldn't be exposed in the API, but I conceed that MythUIButtonList doesn't just do the right thing either so somone added it |
| [10:56:54] | stuartm: | paul-h: widget behaviour, like remembering the layout across updates should be internal to the widget, not require that every place the list is used keep track of internal state variables |
| [11:01:50] | stuartm: | I'll make the buttonlist work as intended eventually, hopefully sooner rather than later |
| [11:03:07] | paul-h: | Maybe add a savePosition() and restorePosition() that would try to keep the same item selected and in the same position after the button list is updated? |
| [11:05:37] | stuartm: | paul-h: that's the sort of thing I had in mind |
| [11:06:33] | paul-h: | Anyway I don't see it being a really big problem myself I'll leave that up to you. The main thing you can now delete expired recording in the status box :) |
| [11:09:53] | stuartm: | it's a combination of two things for me, the first is that if we ever re-write or redesign the widget then internal vars like topPosition might cease to exist and so instead of changes being confined to one class we need to update several |
| [11:10:24] | stuartm: | I've done one UI port already, I don't want to face another |
| [11:11:22] | mrand (mrand!~mrand@ubuntu/member/mrand) has joined #mythtv | |
| [11:11:40] | stuartm: | the other is that is that the behaviour guaranteed to be more consistent if that logic is part of the widget instead of being implemented several different ways outside the widget |
| [11:12:52] | stuartm: | well there's a third and maybe fourth reason too, it's simpler for whoever is using the widget and results in tidier code |

| [11:26:48] | paul-h: | stuartm: I think I may have added the GetTopItemPos() but for a completely different reason. If you wont to dynamically update the buttons to say only load the images for buttons when they become visible you need to know which item is at the top so you can only update the visible ones |
| [11:28:13] | paul-h: | of cause you can make that information available some other way but that is what it was originally added for. |
| [11:30:02] | stuartm: | paul-h: there is the itemVisible() signal? |
| [11:30:22] | stuartm: | which is triggered as the item becomes visible |
| [11:31:39] | stuartm: | http://miffteevee.co.uk/documentation/develop . . . 4775017fd1ab |
| [11:31:58] | paul-h: | That must have been added after I converted mythzoneminder to mythui or else I just didn't know about it at the time |
| [11:35:23] | paul-h: | Only added in September last year by danielk by the look of it so wasn't available when I did the conversion |
| [12:01:41] | stuartm: | paul-h: yeah, I wrote it for danielk22 to use in PBB |

This was the default before MySQL 5.0.3, and much of MythTV was designed around the behavior. We've since added lots of code to try to work around lack of reconnection, but since we now require Qt 4.6+, Qt has support for specifying that we want auto-reconnect. |

| [17:06:05] | sphery: | It might allow us to clean up a lot of our workarounds, but the initial change would just be to specify m_db.setConnectOptions("MYSQL_OPT_RECONNECT"); in MSqlDatabase constructor. |
| [17:06:08] | danielk22: | sphery: ah.. i.c. I'm surprised we haven't seen more problems with it being disabled.. |
| [17:08:48] | sphery: | danielk22: Yeah, our KickDatabase() (which is called for every new MSqlQuery we create) generally notices dead connections (and throws them away), and we have other code that tries to notice failed queries and such (thinks like https://github.com/MythTV/mythtv/commit/528324d8 ). I'm hoping that it may fix warpme's issue on #9773 and #9792 and the 3rd one... |

| [17:16:30] | danielk22: | Are we sure the Qt reconnect stuff works when the connection is in a thread that doesn't have an event loop? (i.e. most of them). |
| [17:17:13] | sphery: | it's actually using MySQL C API to set up the low-level MYSQL connection to use its MySQL-provided-reconnect code |
| [17:17:38] | sphery: | so it's actually working at a level lower than Qt |

| [17:37:46] | skd5aner: | not sure what Lawrece's intentions are – but I know plenty of examples where user agents can make a big difference |
| [17:40:38] | Captain_Murdoch: | iamlindoro, that's probably so he can use it to help bypass the TOS for BBC's iPlayer since he mentioned doing that by using out-of-country proxies in one of his previous emails. |
| [17:41:24] | Captain_Murdoch: | like his new proxy env var that he wants for 'performance' reasons. |
| [17:41:58] | Captain_Murdoch: | we just let him slide on his comments about that, knowing that there isn't any way we'd put it in git. |

| [17:43:37] | sphery: | danielk22: I've set my mysql wait_timeout and interactive_timeout to 120 (seconds) on my mysqld, and it seems to be doing the right thing--our code never even notices the reconnect. Patch is at http://pastebin.com/hM56LgFw |
| [17:44:12] | sphery: | there is about 1/2 second of latency when it reconnects, but otherwise seems to be transparent |

| [17:47:23] | wagnerrp: | skd5aner: thats the whole point, they are filtering on user agents because they only want certain user agents to access the content |
| [17:47:43] | wagnerrp: | such as... apple filtering for only quicktime user agents for downloading trailers |

| [17:53:02] | Mousey (Mousey!~wtfisme@ross154.net) has joined #mythtv | |
| [17:54:35] | skd5aner: | yea, but there was a day not so long ago where even government sites would filter if you didn't use IE5/6... it wasn't necessarily nefarious to mimic an IE user agent in another browser for that, but I get your point... especially in cases of serving up media content |
| [17:59:16] | wagnerrp: | for a browser, i might see a point |
| [17:59:32] | wagnerrp: | for a download manager, there should be no reason for that to be filtered, except for intentional access control |
| [17:59:34] | paul-h: | the BBC tech guys have said publicly they have no problem with us updating our mheg engine to get access to the iPlayer stuff |
| [17:59:50] | stoffel (stoffel!~quassel@p57B4CD86.dip.t-dialin.net) has joined #mythtv | |
| [18:03:39] | Captain_Murdoch: | paul-h, the tech guys didn't write the legal contracts with media sources or the TOS though. |
| [18:04:54] | Captain_Murdoch: | mheg engine updates for UK users are one thing. accessing iPlayer from Spain/France/Italy/The-U.S./etc. is a totally separate issue. |
| [18:08:12] | paul-h: | I assume they block users from outside the UK like they do the web version |
| [18:10:05] | Captain_Murdoch: | that's what we're referring to actually. that there are people outside the UK using paid proxies within the UK to bypass that block. and the patch to allow setting the user agent in MythDownloadManager is from the same source as the patch to allow using one of those proxies to bypass the block. |
| [18:10:59] | paul-h: | Maybe we should ask what Lawrence wants it for before jumping to conclusions? |
| [18:12:18] | Beirdo: | no, he stated pretty clearly that it was to bypass the BBC's UK restrictions |
| [18:12:45] | Beirdo: | as a reason to allow a separate proxy |
| [18:13:37] | sphery: | FWIW, here's the post in question: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/dev/486560#486560 |

| [18:51:42] | stuartm: | paul-h: that's reassuring news about the BBC's tacit OK on the mheg stuff, I couldn't see how they could possibly object but at least we know that they won't |
| [18:57:13] | stuartm: | iamlindoro, Captain_Murdoch: again, like the proxy stuff we can just remove it prior to committing, Lawrence has made it clear where he stands and I think we've been very clear in the past that we won't aide users in breaking TOS or copyright laws so there is nothing to be gained by restarting the argument and the possibility that Lawrence would decide to withdraw his contribution entirely |
| [18:58:27] | iamlindoro: | stuartm: yes, I agree |
| [19:00:21] | kormoc: | skd5aner, I don't know of a single service that restricts based on user agents that don't have a TOS that goes along with it. Can you cite an example? |

| [19:09:20] | wagnerrp: | or at least let the other browsers attempt to run the application |
| [19:09:26] | wagnerrp: | they outright block them |
| [19:17:30] | stuartm: | actually lots of sites block browsers which their services haven't been officially tested/validated against – bank websites are the most common offenders, but using opera I quite often see the issue with others |
| [19:19:12] | stuartm: | luckily opera has the option to 'Masquerade as IE' or 'Masquerade as Firefox' which gets past the "Your browser is not supported" screen and then amazingly works flawlessly |
| [19:20:47] | stuartm: | of course there's also the "Your operating system is not supported" screen, which is as baffling as it is stupid, yet some sites still refuse to let you use linux ... |
| [19:25:04] | Captain_Murdoch: | stuartm, yeah, I claimed the ticket with the plan of applying patch parts 1 & 3 in separate commits and leaving #2 out "until we need that functionality" without further comment. I had a comment 30–40 minutes ago typed stating so, but never hit ENTER I guess. :| |
| [19:26:33] | Captain_Murdoch: | I have to use the user agent switcher in firefox every time I access my credit union's website since they only allow IE, although it's worked fine in FireFox from the first day I tried it eons ago. |

| [19:54:30] | kormoc: | danielk22, I've seen it. My old back had that in there so that if the browser screwed up, it wasn't their fault (posting multiple times/etc) |
| [19:54:31] | danielk22: | There are a lot of websites that look bad, like nyt.com, but the ones that do user agent sniffing and don't present anything aren't the type where management even thought about the existence of different browsers. |

Until recently, Citibank allowed you to see any other cardholder's statement by typing in their CC number so maybe they are still in the dark corners.. |

| [20:15:13] | MythBuild: | I'll give a shout when the build finishes |
| [20:21:07] | wagnerrp: | Captain_Murdoch: a bit of a request for next time you start working on the theme chooser again |
| [20:21:21] | wagnerrp: | have it run at frontend startup, to ensure the selected theme is actually available |
| [20:22:33] | wagnerrp: | the way i have my frontends set up, they get cloned off a shared image, and then a handful of config files are overlayed on top |
| [20:22:50] | wagnerrp: | whenever i refresh my frontends, my ~/.mythtv directory gets flushed out, and the theme is lost |
| [20:23:06] | wagnerrp: | so the frontends fall back to terra |
| [20:24:41] | wagnerrp: | i imagine the same thing would happen if one were to clear out their theme cache |
| [20:29:20] | skd5aner: | kormoc: all of the examples above were the kind I was thinking about/referring to... I know this still happens frequently today, especially in the mobile world to... but it may be a different story for service based solutions versus browser based ones. |
| [20:29:46] | MythBuild: | build #689 of master-linux-ppc is complete: Failure [failed compile core] Build details are at http://code.mythtv.org/buildbot/builders/mast . . . c/builds/689 |
| [20:30:20] | skd5aner: | But I wouldn't be totally surprised if there aren't some examples of services out there that were created and tested against a single solution and therefore they only whitelist ones they want to support for that reason – not necessarily because other options are nefarrious – but I think that's when you have to defer to the TOS |
| [20:31:29] | Captain_Murdoch: | wagnerrp, doesn't the current code fall back to Terra if your selected theme does not exist? Are you saying automatically download the selected theme if it does not exist or just run the theme chooser if the selected theme does not exist? |
| [20:31:53] | wagnerrp: | Captain_Murdoch: im saying, if the selected theme doesnt exist, check if its available for download |
| [20:32:29] | wagnerrp: | skd5aner: in such a case where they were limiting support for quality control and not content control |
| [20:32:47] | skd5aner: | wagnerrp: yes, exactly... thank you for summing it up :) |
| [20:32:51] | wagnerrp: | i think the proper solution would be to contact them and try to get mythdownloadmanager added as an allowed user agent |
| [20:34:25] | skd5aner: | I would highly doubt that would work in any major case... large corps tend to ignore little players |
| [20:34:27] | wagnerrp: | Captain_Murdoch: not a major issue, or even a minor issue |
| [20:34:37] | wagnerrp: | just a slight annoyance whenever i update my frontends |
| [20:36:50] | skd5aner: | anyway – I think you guys are right anyway – there are probably more wrong reasons to support agent changing than right ones, but there are cases where it could make sense. I was just playing devil's advocate in a few fringe cases I'd seen the past |
