| [09:02:53] | stuarta: | morning |
| [09:06:19] | ShapeShifter499: | hi |
| [09:06:32] | ShapeShifter499: | Just submitted this ticket https://code.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/12622#ticket |
| [09:06:50] | Roklobotomy: | does any other recording software in the known universe allow simultaneous recording off the one transport? |
| [09:07:08] | stuarta: | dunno, but i love the feature |
| [09:07:19] | Roklobotomy: | yeah, means i don't need 27 cards. |
| [09:07:31] | Roklobotomy: | it's one of those obvious features. |
| [09:07:35] | stuarta: | Roklobotomy: is that with the new v4l2 driver or a different one? |
| [09:07:53] | Roklobotomy: | well, myth has been able to do it as long as i can remember. |
| [09:08:05] | Roklobotomy: | maybe since early 3.x days |
| [09:08:19] | stuarta: | yeah, it's technically pretty simple |
| [09:09:10] | ShapeShifter499: | I've have had nothing but headache and tears with this tv tuner |
| [09:10:14] | stuarta: | Roklobotomy: have you tried the v4l2 recorder? it's new in 0.28 |
| [09:10:36] | Roklobotomy: | alas tv cards get little love. there's maybe 2–3 guys in the universe who code tv card drivers for linux and it's all done in their free time. |
| [09:11:09] | Roklobotomy: | stuarta: uh is is automatic or do I need to select it? |
| [09:11:28] | stuarta: | Roklobotomy: no, you have to select it |
| [09:11:36] | Roklobotomy: | i am using 0.28 trunk all the time. |
| [09:11:38] | Roklobotomy: | ok |
| [09:11:45] | Roklobotomy: | MBE settings or MFE? |
| [09:11:50] | stuarta: | MBE |
| [09:11:57] | Roklobotomy: | i'll try tonight |
| [09:12:01] | stuarta: | ok |
| [09:12:05] | Roklobotomy: | the 'old' one is working fine. |
| [09:12:16] | stuarta: | :) |
| [09:12:41] | ** stuarta goes for cuppa ** | |
| [09:12:48] | Roklobotomy: | my issues is my dual tuner dvb card can't tune both tuners at the same time as the i2c bus gets messed up. |
| [09:13:00] | Roklobotomy: | so i have to firce tunign delays on alternate tuners |
| [09:13:29] | Roklobotomy: | which seems to work for the most part. |
| [09:13:48] | Roklobotomy: | antti won't work on the driver any more as it's an obsolete chipset. |
| [09:16:02] | Roklobotomy: | ShapeShifter499: can you in any way shape or form shift to digital recording like DVB-* or firewire? |
| [09:16:45] | ShapeShifter499: | Roklobotomy: nope :/ |
| [09:16:56] | Roklobotomy: | what are you recording? |
| [09:16:59] | Roklobotomy: | off? |
| [09:17:33] | ShapeShifter499: | none of my computers have firewire (not even sure if it's turned on on the box) and it's not dvb in my area it's atsc/dtv |
| [09:18:00] | ShapeShifter499: | Roklobotomy: I wanted to stream and record from a connected comcast cable box |
| [09:21:25] | Roklobotomy: | maybe get a firewire card of some sort. |
| [09:22:29] | Roklobotomy: | plenty on ebay for $15 |
| [09:25:31] | ShapeShifter499: | Roklobotomy: would firewire to usb work? |
| [09:25:45] | Roklobotomy: | as long as linux kernel supports it.... |
| [09:27:42] | stuarta: | Roklobotomy: that sounds like a hardware bug (i2c bus messup) |
| [09:27:55] | Roklobotomy: | yeah |
| [09:28:03] | Roklobotomy: | staggering the tuning seems to alleviate it |
| [09:28:21] | stuarta: | sounds like i2c bus contention |
| [09:29:05] | Roklobotomy: | it's just that myth sees them as independent tuners and barfs tuning commands at the same time if 2 channels need to be recorded at the exact same moment. The driver code doesn't mux the I2C bus properly. |
| [09:29:41] | Roklobotomy: | each tuner has the same I2C address and the driver code needs to gate the I2C to the right chip. |
| [09:30:03] | stuarta: | sounds like you have enough information to write a patch :-0 |
| [09:30:11] | Roklobotomy: | fsck that |
| [09:30:17] | Roklobotomy: | offset delays work fine |
| [09:30:23] | stuarta: | hehe |
| [09:30:39] | Roklobotomy: | and I'd say I'm the only guy in the world using these cards with myth |
| [09:31:15] | Roklobotomy: | many other mythtv users in .au gave up in disgust as it was a common item 5 years ago |
| [09:31:30] | ShapeShifter499: | would something like this even work provided the kernel supports it? http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Firewire-IEEE-139 . . . 111559145439 |
| [09:32:06] | Roklobotomy: | ShapeShifter499: I hope it has actually electronics in it. |
| [09:32:26] | stuarta: | Roklobotomy: this issue may be a setup one, the code looks to be trying to load "width" and "height" from the profile, but it's missing |
| [09:32:28] | dekarl: | i2c issues are so common, can we randomly start recordings early so we only start one recordings per x seconds? |
| [09:32:45] | stuarta: | dekarl: they aren't that common????? |
| [09:32:54] | dekarl: | oviously not that easy due to the EIT scanner :) |
| [09:33:06] | Roklobotomy: | the same problem applies if one tuner is started and one is stopped. |
| [09:33:18] | dekarl: | stuarta, the hauppauge dual dvb-t cards have similar issues |
| [09:33:29] | stuarta: | really? |
| [09:33:34] | dekarl: | and googling for the errors back then resulted in many hits |
| [09:33:36] | Roklobotomy: | my idea is that the myth code atomically serialises tunings if it doesn't already. |

| [09:34:27] | stuarta: | my hauppage dual dvb stick doesn't suffer this |
| [09:34:28] | dekarl: | stuarta, I got uncorrectable recording errors on tuner 1 every time the eit scanner changed the channel on tuner 2. it was so bad that I made sure to only EIT scan on the very first tuner and use that for recordings first, too |
| [09:34:35] | Roklobotomy: | problems happen at mbe startup to with long delays for some cards with calibration. |
| [09:35:40] | Roklobotomy: | if mbe queued all tuner transactions in an atomic fashion this problem might go away |
| [09:35:50] | ShapeShifter499: | Roklobotomy: I'm not finding any firewire to usb adapters with electronics |
| [09:36:23] | ShapeShifter499: | I'm guessing some firewire stuff might not be supported with a straight adapter |
| [09:36:27] | dekarl: | also still got spam from dvb cards,,, saa7146: saa7146 (0) saa7146_i2c_writeout [irq]: timed out waiting for end of xfer |
| [09:36:28] | Roklobotomy: | i had some older cards that needed 10's of seconds to calibrate and sometimes myth would barge ahead and try start a recording right after startup which caused issues. |
| [09:37:13] | dekarl: | thats why I simply ordered a HDHR when they were on christmas sale. can't hack on all issues |
| [09:37:24] | Roklobotomy: | is there any way to determine from the driver if the DVB card is primed for a new bunch of commands and isn't busy calibrating or whatever |
| [09:38:05] | Roklobotomy: | ShapeShifter499: that cable you showed looks like a potential disaster |

| [09:38:45] | Roklobotomy: | dekarl: can you queue up tuning requests in MBE? |
| [09:40:00] | Roklobotomy: | sometimes my cards get into such a state only a cold power cycle will let them tune again. |
| [09:40:14] | Roklobotomy: | syslog is full of i2c errors otherwise. |
| [09:40:30] | dekarl: | Roklobotomy: I gave up on DVB drivers, its an uphill battle |
| [09:40:52] | Roklobotomy: | well i am just saying in the tuning code, it'd be tuner agnostic. |
| [09:41:04] | xris (xris!~xris@xris.forevermore.net) has quit (Ping timeout: 256 seconds) | |
| [09:41:09] | Roklobotomy: | queue 'em up. make 'em atomic. |
| [09:41:54] | dekarl: | the hard part is to fix one issue without creating another... (looks like I'll have to revert the latest EIT fixes, I can't find where they are broken) |
| [09:42:01] | Roklobotomy: | if the driver never has a chance to be sane about these things at least MBE could be kinder to them. |
| [09:42:10] | stuarta: | dekarl: what's up with them? |
| [09:42:17] | dekarl: | e.g. make tuning for recordings / EIT scan stable without slowing down channel changes in livetv to much |
| [09:42:42] | dekarl: | stuarta, they break the encoding for strings that do not get a fixup applied |
| [09:44:16] | dekarl: | #9480, #12618 – obviously everything "works for me" and I could not come up with a unit test that identifies an issue. So its back to code staring at the original patch (which is not really fit for general usage) and my reimplementation (which works in my tests, but not for warpme in poland or yianni in greece) |
| [09:44:16] | ** MythLogBot http://code.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/9480 ** | |
| [09:44:16] | ** MythLogBot http://code.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/12618 ** | |
| [09:45:11] | stuarta: | sounds like it's being applied to everything regardless |
| [09:46:51] | dekarl: | hmm, maybe a unit test for 1ll<48 shows something |
| [09:48:47] | dekarl: | I'm out for the day, can create a feature branch off master, then revert it on master. Then work with warpme to fix it on that branch |
| [09:50:06] | stuarta: | have fun |
| [09:52:01] | dekarl: | btw, do we have a big-endian buildslave? I noticed that the arm ones all are little endian, too. |
| [09:53:01] | stuarta: | not that i know of |
| [09:54:38] | Roklobotomy: | dekarl: re slow tuning, yah ok. i never watch livetv on myth – switch to normal tv for that. |
| [09:54:48] | Roklobotomy: | normal tv always tunes much faster |
| [09:55:27] | Roklobotomy: | is rpi both? |
| [09:57:21] | dekarl: | Roklobotomy: yes, ARM can do both |
| [09:57:50] | dekarl: | so it appears to reduce issues with non-big-endian fit software to just run it little endian... |
| [09:59:15] | Roklobotomy: | can arm linux run be and le .exe's at the same time? i don't have arm anything so don't know. |

| [11:25:06] | stuarta: | it's a good target for your distro |
| [11:25:20] | stuarta: | if I had an rpi2 i would try it out |
| [11:26:42] | stuarta: | what did you use for the python libs for MySQLdb and urlgrabber? or did you have to hand roll them? |

| [11:27:55] | warpme: | yes. But before not small effort I must be sure will it pay-off. My current expierience with RPI2 and master: all functions works, UI speed is acceptable (but is on lower level barelly acceptable), playback isn't smooth as should be. Without fixing this I'm not sure is it worth to go with RPI2 and MiniMyth2. |
| [11:28:17] | ShapeShifter499: | well the powerbook is a no go... the display keeps flickering |
| [11:29:06] | stuarta: | :( |

| [11:32:42] | warpme: | stuarta: I'm using mysql-python 1.2.5–1 (MySQL support for Python) |
| [11:33:44] | stuarta: | i think the problem is it's doing the tests with python v3 not the python v2 by default |

| [11:47:01] | stuarta: | don't worry, am working on it atm |
| [11:48:36] | stuarta: | haha, fixed it |
| [11:52:57] | stuarta: | warpme: https://git.io/vzSoS |
| [11:55:13] | warpme: | stuarta: how this is related to --python=python2 in configure ? |
| [11:55:34] | stuarta: | automatically achieves the same thing |
| [11:55:54] | warpme: | I have pyhton2 for mythtv and python3 for i.e. irdb-get |
| [11:56:38] | stuarta: | the difference is, without that, i would need a special build rule, just to select python2 on distro's where 3 has been made the default |
| [11:56:58] | stuarta: | this way, configure "does the right thing" and chooses what we need automatically |
| [11:58:20] | warpme: | exactly. This is what I'm using in my RPI's PKGBUILDs |
| [12:00:35] | warpme: | stuarta: give me small feedback – if/when You will gather it. I have idea to put ann. on users ml. |
| [12:01:41] | stuarta: | warpme: i can't give you any more feedback, i like the idea, suggest you put it out to the users list |

| [12:54:41] | dekarl: | warpme: very nice. As the rpi is one of the few devices that actually does hdmi-cec that would be quite nice for testing mythtv's cec support |
| [12:56:27] | warpme: | sure. This is in-fact my hidden goal: prepare enabler to get myth on rpi2 as good as should be. Then go with really optimized distro for it (<marketing rant> minimyth2 </marketing rant>) |

| [14:44:53] | warpme: | jmcentee_: thx for being interested in minimyth2 & rpi. Currently I think 1st thing is to get current mythtv master working well on RPI2. My expierience with this is rather mixed. In other words: if current playback is max what can be achieved – it is not worth to go. But I'm pretty sure there is room for improvement. So lets ppl grab current minimyt2, see how it works, report issue and myth devs improve. After this cycle we can go with dedic |
| [14:49:16] | stuarta: | rpi2 support is very alpha |
| [14:51:43] | warpme: | dekarl: playback thing is strange on my rpi2. It plays OK with 10–20% CPU load on 1080i TV – but playback is not fluent. It is noticable jumpy. Overclocking rpi2 by 30% makes no noticable difference. Turning-off HW DI also. |
| [14:52:30] | dekarl: | stuarta, buildslave recipes are missing libcec-dev (and the openmax stuff, but that's target specific) |
| [14:52:55] | stuarta: | dekarl: you want me to add, or do you want to? |
| [14:53:42] | warpme: | I spent weeks to optimize compile of Qt5.5 to get practically zero warnings, etc. The same for mythtv. LOG is clean as possible. Currently I think issue is within mythtv as OC of rpi2 changes nothing... |
| [14:54:18] | warpme: | without other ppl veryfying I can't move forward.... |
| [14:54:19] | dekarl: | I'm just rebuilding the buildslave and looking into missing / conflicting packages. As its likely missing on all distributions I don't know where to start for != deb based |
| [14:54:36] | stuarta: | warpme: what do you get in the logs when it's jumpy? |
| [14:54:44] | stuarta: | dekarl: that's easy enough to find out |
| [14:55:27] | dekarl: | indeed, but its YetAnotherItemOnTheList, so I don't mind if someone else gets to it :D |
| [14:55:54] | stuarta: | libcec-devel on fedora, libcec-dev on deb based systems |
| [14:56:14] | ** stuarta fiddles ** | |
| [14:56:51] | warpme: | sure. Give me few mins. I'll try get it remotelly via ssh (I'm in work) |
| [15:00:25] | warpme: | oh it looks like I forgot to enable telnet remote control in rpi2 fe. is there another way to kick LiveTV via ssh? |
| [15:01:32] | stuarta: | dekarl: done |
| [15:03:04] | stuarta: | dekarl: well the libcec part, didn't do openmax stuff |
| [15:03:11] | jheizer: | warpme, I believe the frontend service is usually enabled by default. |
| [15:03:32] | jheizer: | Try http://FrontendIP:6547/Frontend/GetActionList and see if live tv is an available action from where it currently is |
| [15:03:37] | warpme: | I can remotelly edit DB – what setting in table enables remote control on fe? |
| [15:06:43] | dekarl: | stuarta: thanks, yes the openmax part is different and depends on lots of variables => ENotNow |
| [15:07:10] | stuarta: | yeah, just quickly reading up on the bellagio openmax.... |
| [15:07:38] | stuarta: | do the openmax libs from rpi meet this same spec? |
| [15:07:51] | warpme: | hmm – it looks like it is 'NetworkControlEnabled' but it apears only after entering setup screens – so not present in vanilla first run config...grrr |
| [15:07:52] | dekarl: | ahh, funny times ahead with support for AVC and HEVC encoding circutery coming to linux drivers... |
| [15:08:11] | stuarta: | interesting, where did you read that? |
| [15:09:02] | stuarta: | i'm wondering if there is any value in adding the bellagio openmax libs to the buildslaves |
| [15:09:13] | warpme: | jheizer: I'm behind app-level proxy so only port 80 works for me.... |
| [15:09:28] | dekarl: | stuarta, read what? the broadcom openmax stuff on rpi ships with AVC encoding enabled by default for all raspberries |
| [15:09:45] | stuarta: | interesting |
| [15:10:13] | warpme: | stuarta: personally I prefer usability over FOSS puritanizm. By this bellagio is less prefered over Brcm IL for me |
| [15:10:25] | dekarl: | so even your 5$ Pi Zero should be able to transcode bluray H.264 to smallish WiFi streaming H.264 in realtime without breaking a sweat |
| [15:10:36] | stuarta: | nice |
| [15:11:00] | dekarl: | MPEG-2 and VC-1 decoding needs the additional license though |
| [15:11:43] | stuarta: | stuff is moving away from mpeg2, for the new v4l2 recorder, i'd love to see it output h264 by default |
| [15:12:13] | dekarl: | wrt the AMD open source work on openmax video encoding https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTU5NDc |
| [15:12:51] | dekarl: | stuarta, isn't the new V4L2 recorder just dumping to disk whatever the device encoded? |
| [15:12:59] | stuarta: | i think so |
| [15:13:25] | stuarta: | don't think it supports old school frame grabbers without an encoder |
| [15:15:10] | dekarl: | ahh, and then there are the funky V4L drivers for frame grabbers with ffmpeg linked in for software encoding. So I think its fair to not care about doing software encoding ourselves in new developments. |
| [15:15:16] | stuarta: | i suggest you ignore the ramblings of this madman |
| [15:15:47] | stuarta: | it's one of the main parts where we require liblame |

| [15:16:43] | ** MythLogBot http://code.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/12019 ** | |

| [15:22:12] | jmcentee: | warpme: Do you have a rpi2 image I can try out? Have just go around to updating to 0.27.5, but I am planing on creating a test server for the current master. |
| [15:23:00] | jmcentee: | I only have mpeg recordings from a DVB-T, but have just got 2 dvb-t2 usb sticks to play with. |
| [15:23:06] | warpme: | jmcentee: pls look here: http://pastebin.com/94ngydv9 |
| [15:25:11] | stuarta: | warpme: getting "Waiting for video buffers" so when you are in front of it, pull up the "playback data" screen and see if you are keeping the decode pipeline full |
| [15:25:38] | warpme: | stuarta: LOG I provided is from RPI2 connected to 60HZ LCD monitor – so some of problem can go from displaying 50i content on 60Hz display. But I done tests with my TV with video mode 1080p@50. Jumpy playback is still easy noticable while CPU load is 10–20%.... |
| [15:26:05] | stuarta: | it's to do with keeping the output pipeline full |
| [15:26:56] | stuarta: | check 1) available buffer (really should be buffer used) higher the better, then frames decoded /available, you want decoded to be as high as possible |
| [15:27:03] | warpme: | stuarta: sure I'll do this when I'll be home. But i remember it wasn't... i simply don't know why?. CPU is low. OC of GPU not helps.... |
| [15:27:21] | stuarta: | warpme: yep, that's why i said when you are in front of it |
| [15:27:35] | warpme: | sure :-))))) |
| [15:27:59] | warpme: | I'll return to You within 2–3h |
| [15:28:13] | stuarta: | based on "Player(0): Waited 413ms for video buffers LLAAAAAAAPPP" that thing doesn't have a lot of buffers |
| [15:28:48] | stuarta: | having said that, too many of them are "available" (A) ie. no data to display |
| [15:30:33] | jmcentee: | warpme: do I need the minimyth DHCP stuff configured, or can I use your current RPI2 build without it? |
| [15:31:11] | warpme: | dekarl, stuarta: regarding rpi2 and gfx. I would love to see 4.5 kernel. It will have KMS, DRM and MESA – all for VC4. So we can expect full hw accell for 3D. 2D will be via glamour. I lready have kernel for rpi2 which has reporting in dmesg & xorg.log full 3D hw accell, 2D via glamour and video decode via VDPAU. |
| [15:32:15] | warpme: | not tested yet as it requires qt5 support via EGL from MESA – not from IL |
| [15:32:44] | warpme: | jmcentee: yes. DHCP is must. |
| [15:33:33] | jmcentee: | well, don't really mean dhcp, but the minimyth.conf via tftp available and correctly configured? |
| [15:35:16] | warpme: | jmcentee: oh no. What we have now for rpi2 is not classical minimyth2. It is ArchLinux ARM based dedicated OS with specially compiled & preinstalled all software |
| [15:36:06] | warpme: | rpi2 hasn't any PXE – so no nice things like network boot :-( |
| [15:38:04] | jmcentee: | you could probably make it somehow. but then the rpi2 does not have enough RAM to run with a ram filesystem as well, bet you could make it nfs root though :) |
| [15:38:25] | jmcentee: | you as in someone. |
| [15:39:18] | jmcentee: | my minimyth.conf files are from 2011 , just found them. |
| [15:39:20] | warpme: | jmcentee: yes. but this 100mb/s LAN.......... |
| [15:39:53] | dekarl: | jmcentee: it appears to be easier to have an sd card image that contains everything including an "update me" menu option. |
| [15:40:16] | dekarl: | and the 100mbit/s LAN is hanging off the one USB host together with everything else |
| [15:40:42] | dekarl: | warpme: next up Odroid C1+ ;) |
| [15:40:44] | jmcentee: | true, what speed is the access to the SD card? |
| [15:41:06] | warpme: | jams: sure. I'm exactly on such track. You know – I learn Myth on LinHES :-)))))) |
| [15:42:18] | warpme: | jams: today evening I'll post on users ML something like this: http://pastebin.com/94ngydv9 this is just start thing for rpi2 |
| [15:43:25] | warpme: | jams: regarding network boot: do you mean NFS or rather PXE with RAMdisk based rootfs? |
| [15:43:38] | jams: | Warpme, wrong window but good we can work out details later |
| [15:44:58] | jams: | warpme both pxe and nfs/pxe , just didn't care for either |
| [15:45:24] | jams: | pop in to #linhes-dev so we don't clutter this channel |
| [15:45:30] | warpme: | jams: sure. np. My goal is: first lets get rpi2 usable for me. this is for MiniMyth2 RPI2 edition. After that I'll have spare cycles for more things :-) |
