[23:45:25] Sabotender: Wow, for some reason, the volume increases exponentially whenever I try to turn it up by a few levels. I ticked the box to allow or disallow volume control though mythtv or the operating system, but it doesn't seem to make any difference. I will definitely try to get handbrake set up to work with MythTV, and that 'Autodetect' feature seems quite convincing to use.Good 'ol Amazon, I ordered a cheapola backlit remote to use with that usb IR
[23:45:25] Sabotender: receiver, which will be here this weekend, probably. I wanted to ask you if you had this thing. It seems to be (from the description) that is so user-friendly that it would work out of box, and would allow me to assign reactions ffor all the button ccodes. Heh, sorry to deluge you with all of this information
[23:49:33] Sabotender: I really, really want to write a 'housekeeping' script that would be scheduled to monitor all the recording directories to delete any video files that have failed with like, 0 file size. I would set a certain bound, if the file is between 0–50MB, delete it and hopefully there's some command to have mythtv rescan those recording direcotries, and update the database to match with all the files that are available.
[23:50:39] Sabotender: Of course, this cript would also check to be certain that there aren't any video files open by any handles or processes, so it wouldn't struggle with a pushing and shoving row to win access with a silly infinite loop.
[23:58:21] Sabotender: my new omni-directional intenna is really really good at providing a clean picture, for the channels that actually has range, but the problem is that it also collected several phantom channels, that provide a perfect, beautiful signmal and picture one day....and then the tuner fails to lock, and I get a 0, or very small file sized MB recording. There one day, and gone the next. 😅 So, it's a coin toss if I am going to get an episode of
[23:58:21] Sabotender: Punky Brewster or Law and order SVU.
