[07:50:03] Roklobsta: ooer i hear jya is updating ffpmeg.
[08:14:01] stuarta: he was having a bash at it yes
[08:14:34] Roklobsta: ain't it just 'git pull' and 'make'?
[08:14:41] stuarta: sadly no
[08:14:49] Roklobsta: massive api changes?
[08:14:54] stuarta: we have our own modified copy of ffmpeg
[08:15:23] stuarta: so it's unroll our patches, update, roll forward our patches, then see if any api is broken and move to the new supported ont
[08:15:30] stuarta: it's the last part that's a pain in the arse
[08:15:40] stuarta: s/ont/one
[08:15:46] Roklobsta: sounds like a grind. just what someone wants to do with their free time...
[08:16:02] stuarta: it would be easier if we did it more often
[08:16:26] stuarta: for reference, our previous sync was against 2.3.1, 2.8 is now current
[08:19:56] Roklobsta: yep lotsa h.265 updates in that no doubt
[08:20:41] Roklobsta: i wonder just how many more interations of compression standards are left before there are no returns.
[08:21:45] stuarta: there will always be a new one
[08:22:23] Roklobsta: can you somehow halve the bitrate of h.265 and still have it look as good?
[08:22:24] stuarta: sadly the mentality is "the punter won't notice a decrease in quality, and we can ram another 5 shitty channel in the same space = $$$"
[08:22:52] Roklobsta: the spare dvb channels here have super lores ad channels.
[08:23:11] stuarta: normally shopping channels around here
[08:23:17] Roklobsta: yeah
[08:23:27] ** stuarta hates shopping channels with a passion **
[08:23:39] Roklobsta: still no h.264 in .au AFAIK
[08:23:50] Roklobsta: on DVBT
[08:24:09] Roklobsta: some experiments with 3DTV which have disappeared.
[08:25:16] stuarta: h264 is a big investment, as all the receivers need changing. i doubt there's sufficient market in .au to make it commercially viable to move quickly
[08:25:48] stuarta: they'll probably wait until the chipsets are commodity and it's essentially no cost in a new receiver
[08:25:50] Roklobsta: most stb's have supported it for a long time and no doubt all tv's have it
[08:25:57] stuarta: hmmm true
[08:26:02] stuarta: slack arses
[08:26:30] Roklobsta: then move to dvb-t2?
[08:26:43] stuarta: they normally do that at the same time as h264
[08:26:54] Roklobsta: i think we're stuck with dvb for a long time, coz we are early adopters
[08:27:02] stuarta: hardly
[08:27:03] Roklobsta: dvbt i mean
[08:27:15] Roklobsta: DVBT cam on here in ~2001 AFAIR
[08:27:37] Roklobsta: all analogue is gone
[08:28:44] stuarta: still slowly switching off here
[08:29:39] Roklobsta: lots of channel shuffling last year to free up 700MHz for LTE
[08:29:58] stuarta: is that the old VHF band?
[08:30:12] ** stuarta is showing his age **
[08:30:18] Roklobsta: UHF
[08:30:25] stuarta: growing up, all my .au tv was on VHF channels ;-)
[08:30:36] Roklobsta: Channel 2 and SBS28 were VHF
[08:30:46] Roklobsta: and ch7/9/10
[08:30:52] stuarta: in syd at least, sbs was one of the first on UHF
[08:30:58] stuarta: ~ch28
[08:31:12] Roklobsta: maybe 28 is UHF and the original '0' it was on was VHF
[08:31:28] stuarta: yeah 0–10 were VHF
[08:32:01] Roklobsta: out here in the boonies there are a lot of houses with 10m masts for old VHF TV reception.
[08:32:19] Roklobsta: the bad old days
[08:32:22] stuarta: i remember them well
[08:32:42] stuarta: my uncle had one, plus a booster just to get reception on about 2/3 channels
[08:32:57] Roklobsta: no broadcast between 10pm and 7am.... no cartoons, bob santamaria on sunday mornings.
[08:33:23] Roklobsta: test patterns....
[08:33:27] stuarta: that'll be why we were so good at sport. nothing on tv, get out of the house
[08:33:43] Roklobsta: now the kids are glued to mythtv.

[08:36:20] stuarta: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVB-T2#System_d . . . s_with_DVB-T
[08:36:57] stuarta: makes interesting reading. basically 45–67% bandwidth reduction for the same profile vs dvb-t
[08:37:16] stuarta: me--
[08:37:37] stuarta: that should be, increase in available bandwidth....
[08:37:45] stuarta: just read it, explains it better than me
[09:07:09] Roklobsta: moar bitz!
[09:07:18] stuarta: basically :-p
[09:07:35] stuarta: = more channels = more $$$
[09:07:47] Roklobsta: well broadcast tv might be dead in 10 years
[09:08:03] stuarta: we hope

[10:10:03] ** stuartm doesn't **
[10:11:19] stuartm: iptv/streaming == massive market fragmentation, inconsistent implementation, DRM, increased costs (multiple subscriptions required for access to the same content) etc
[10:12:14] stuartm: and a waste of bandwidth that could be used for better purposes
[10:14:16] clever: in my ISP's implementation, it uses multicast to reduce bandwidth usage massively
[10:14:39] clever: and its just plain mpegts wrapped in rtp, and blasted over multicast
[10:15:10] clever: mythtv already has support for everything but the decryption, so its basicaly useless for perfect capture, i'm forced to use the analog hole
[10:15:58] ** lautriv__ dislikes the idea of watching tv via web at all. **
[10:16:25] clever: its not really over the web with my ISP, its streamed in over a special vlan on the modem, and only 'authorized hardware' can play it
[10:19:03] lautriv__: still web, still wasting bandwith.
[10:19:26] clever: the ISP adds an extra 20mbit of bandwidth to the real cap, beyond what you pay for
[10:19:52] clever: so you can still get what your paying for, even with the iptv eating a chunk of it
[10:20:49] clever: and because of the multicast, its only having to stream a single copy of every channel
[10:21:01] lautriv__: clever, that is your site but all that crap goes over official lines with may carry useful data instead.
[10:21:38] clever: yeah, the isp will need to provision enough fiber hardware to handle the total number of unique channels a single street may watch
[10:22:36] clever: and multiply that as they go farther up the tree
[10:23:16] stuarta: woot. my dvb-t2 stick just arrived
[10:23:39] clever: :S, the math doesnt seem that good, i get 180mbit download, and the fiber SPF+ modules ive seen online tent to top out at 10gig
[10:23:46] clever: so a single module and fiber can onlyhandle ~55 customers
[10:24:06] clever: assuming they plan for 100% usage of every customer
[10:24:12] stuarta: oversubscribing is the standard practice
[10:24:21] clever: yeah
[10:24:22] stuarta: they'll QOS it so the TV will work properly
[10:24:34] stuarta: and rate limit interweb traffic to make it all work
[10:24:37] clever: yeah, they have VLANS extending right past the modem and into the router
[10:24:49] clever: so they can easily QoS on the main network between homes
[10:25:06] stuarta: end users are quite bursty in the traffic patterns (torrenting excluded) so it's easy to put more consumers on link than the uplink
[10:25:34] stuarta: basically there is no way 100% of the end users will be maxing the BW at any one moment
[10:25:48] Roklobsta: if noone is watching tv though the tv vlan will have no data on it. doesn't multicast toggle subscriptions to multicasts on the router
[10:26:11] stuarta: Roklobsta: yes, if there are no subscribers, no multicast traffic will flow
[10:26:26] clever: stuarta: not so with my gigabit switch, it lacks igmp snooping
[10:26:26] stuarta: it's actually a very nice protocol design
[10:26:37] clever: so every time i turn on the cable box, it starts to DoS the entire house
[10:26:40] clever: and even jams the wifi
[10:26:47] ** stuarta faceplams **
[10:26:51] clever: yeah
[10:26:53] stuarta: get a new switch
[10:27:01] clever: i wired the tv directly into the router
[10:27:02] ** stuarta goes for a cuppa **
[10:27:09] clever: so the router never sends multicast packets to the switch
[10:27:54] clever: it jams the wifi so hard, that an ipad cant even see the beacon packets
[10:28:12] clever: and it will often assume the key is wrong (wep has no way to tell the difference)
[11:36:52] ** stuarta tries to work out why dvb tuning in mythtv requires the sdt.... **
[11:37:16] stuarta: i mean, we should in theory only need the PAT
[11:37:21] stuarta: which gives us the PMT
[11:37:38] stuarta: ie. PAT -> PMT -> stream pids
[11:38:39] clever: https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Fibreop an example of a PID setup that i know mythtv accepted a few years ago
[11:38:42] clever: it obviously failed at the decryption level
[11:39:21] clever: it has the expected PAT -> PMT -> stream pids
[11:39:26] stuarta: still no SDT requirement there
[11:39:39] clever: yeah
[11:39:53] stuarta: i'm curious because i have some channels that record fine on master, but not 0.27
[11:40:00] stuarta: and it's bugging me why
[11:40:41] stuarta: was looking last night and it gets TLMs in livetv which indicates it's waiting for SDT, but i can't see why we require it. For scanning yes it's needed, for recording i can't see why
