[11:09:30] stuartm: has anyone seen audio bitrates under 1Kbps in the wild?
[11:30:21] dekarl: no, even speex begins with >2kbps http://www.speex.org/comparison/ speex-devel is also the place I'd ask such a question.
[11:56:47] stuartm: that's good enough for me, certainly never going to see anything lower than that in video then :)
[11:57:39] stuartm: just prepping some schema changes and was debating whether we stored bitrates in kbps or bytes per second

[13:28:44] dekarl: stuartm, so mythtranscode segfaults for you too?
[13:29:01] dekarl: was about to answer with the obligatory "show us your backtrace"
[13:29:57] dekarl: also dropping dsmcc on the floor should work, while support for (audio) streams coming/going is known broken
[13:30:54] stuartm: dekarl: it's not segfaulting, but it's not working either
[13:33:23] stuartm: oh, it is actually segfaulting
[13:33:41] stuartm: wonder why that wasn't logged by the kernel
[13:34:32] dekarl: still need to look into the "off by one frame" patch on the ticket and the "sometimes off by one frame" patch from lvr (which I can't find right now) before I start actually using mythtranscode again :/
[13:35:15] stuartm: http://pastebin.com/1bwMfNz8

[18:26:14] stuartm: dekarl: fwiw I'm finding no mention of a PS mode for Firewire either in the code or on the wiki
[19:08:59] dekarl: stuartm, hmm http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Video_capture_card . . . ncoder_Cards
[19:09:14] dekarl: "compresses the tuned video signal into an RTjpeg, MPEG-2, or MPEG-4 program stream before sending it into the computer"
[19:09:24] dekarl: looks like i remembered it wrong
[19:10:24] dekarl: the firewire stream thing I remebered appears top have been the mpeg-ts with PAT/PMT
[19:10:41] dekarl: s/with/without/
[19:13:46] stuartm: some of the hardware encoder cards do output PS stream it appears, just looking at where best to distinguish whether we're dealing with a PS or TS stream
[19:17:13] dekarl: re the migration path I like the idea of a batch scanner that renegerates missing / lost information
[19:22:12] stuartm: I'm not even sure where codec information is in PES packets (if it's there at all)
[19:24:30] stuartm: the fact that half the relevant standards are behing pay walls just makes this learning process slower :)
[19:32:57] dekarl: soon countries will be sued for publishing patents in the clear, because TTIP&co. crap :( I bet they'll find some obscure country where they don't have to
[19:33:29] dekarl: otoh "in the clear" lol, I tried to read some patents, clear is a large word for patent lingo
[19:35:19] stuartm: wait, what?
[19:35:20] dekarl: stuartm, looks like its a function of the recording profile? https://code.mythtv.org/cgit/mythtv/tree/myth . . . der.cpp#n330
[19:35:36] dekarl: https://code.mythtv.org/cgit/mythtv/tree/myth . . . rder.cpp#n67
[19:36:36] dekarl: https://code.mythtv.org/cgit/mythtv/tree/myth . . . der.cpp#n612
[19:37:54] dekarl: unless its a hdpvr (would have been to easy)
[19:38:46] stuartm: dekarl: seen that already, but I was musing whether there was a point lower down in DTVRecorder where we'd be able to distinguish the difference as that would catch all future recorders too
[19:39:45] stuartm: or existing recorders which might produce PS streams but we're not aware of
[19:40:48] stuartm: although I've been sidetracked for the moment by the question of codec identification for PS streams
[19:41:10] dekarl: PESStreamID?
[19:42:03] dekarl: the only reference to FindPSKeyFrames is in mpegrecoder.cpp, so I'm not sure if there is a generic place to hook into
[19:45:43] stuartm: best I can tell the PES stream ID only determines whether it's video, audio, DSMCC, private data etc – although it hints that it might also indicate codec – there are a range of IDs reserved for both audio and video, I can't actually find a list of whether they correspond to specific codecs
[19:47:21] stuartm: the other, more likely possibility at this stage is that it's just for multiple video/audio streams not for indicating a stream codec
[19:48:41] dekarl: hmm, where is the non-pes streamid used? https://code.mythtv.org/doxygen/classStreamID.html
[19:49:03] dekarl: doh PMT/SDT or so
[19:49:56] dekarl: but then, just look at the recording profile?
[19:52:09] dekarl: would have been to easy, lots of "if !hdpvr"
[19:53:23] dekarl: the generic hack appears to be "hook into the three keyframe finders"
[19:54:45] dekarl: but that's missing the PS codec :/
[19:56:09] dekarl: lets turn it around, can't the preview generator just read it from the ffmpeg structs?
[19:56:52] dekarl: I was wondering anyway if we can't kick of the preview generator when recording to seed the preview cache instead of waiting for a poor user to open mythweb after being away for two weeks :)
[19:57:16] stuartm: there's the Program Stream Map and Program Stream Directory, which contain stream_type – it's not clear whether these are available for PS containers though
[19:58:06] stuartm: dekarl: we already run the preview generator after recording, but we don't produce scaled copies for mythweb as we've no idea what size it's going to ask for
[19:58:47] stuartm: dekarl: we need to know the codec info from the moment we start recording if we're going to allow streaming of livetv
[19:59:27] dekarl: no chance of ripping out livetv, is there?
[19:59:29] stuartm: the more generic the solution the better
[19:59:29] dekarl: ;)
[19:59:50] stuartm: dekarl: well even streaming of in-progress recordings ;)
[20:00:30] dekarl: ahh, for streaming in progress recordings the preview generator could be good enough. for livetv it sure isn't
[20:00:48] stuartm: I'll figure it out, just an unwanted distraction from the stuff I'd rather be doing
[20:01:48] stuartm: I am learning some things about MPEG TS/PS which I didn't previously know, and that may come in useful in the future
[20:02:22] dekarl: For the hardware encoders we could taste the incoming stream once and store the result in the recording profile.
[20:02:39] dekarl: like, taste it the first time after the backend comes up
[20:09:06] stuartm: I need to find a more recent version of the MPEG TS/PS spec, this one is so old that it pre-dates the introduction of H.264, AC3, AAC and other codecs so it's not going to list the relevant IDs even if I determine which table contains the info
