tgm4883_laptopfoxbuntu, whats happening04:17
foxbuntunot much...got the GTK theme fixed04:18
tgm4883_laptopsweet04:18
tgm4883_laptopit was a little hard on the eyes before04:19
foxbuntuyea04:20
foxbuntuI dropped that theme and started over with the Clearlooks engine04:20
foxbuntuand I am using MythStream for the first time tonight04:21
foxbuntuand I do have to say I like it04:21
tgm4883_laptop:)04:21
foxbuntubeen a few days of mind opening experiences04:21
tgm4883_laptopi'll have to use that apple trailer thing when I get mythbuntu installed on my production machine04:22
foxbuntuthat isn't done yet, I missed the code freezze04:22
foxbuntuthat isn't done yet, I missed the code freeze04:22
foxbuntuso it won't be part of the Mythbuntu Public release until gutsy+104:22
tgm4883_laptopI still think we should stick it in the PPA04:23
foxbuntuI think I will try for that04:23
tgm4883_laptopthat way, 1.  If we find a way to activate that easily from the control centre then it is already in there04:24
foxbuntuI have a goal after I learn the packaging stuff I am going to look into working with these unoffical add-ins04:24
tgm4883_laptopand 2.  People can still activate that repo manually04:24
tgm4883_laptopah04:24
tgm4883_laptopso you plan on packaging more unofficial plugins04:24
foxbuntuyea04:24
tgm4883_laptopi have a list for you then04:25

foxbuntuthank tgm4883_laptop04:32
tgm4883_laptopthose were the ones I was looking at, alot are no longer in dev04:32
foxbuntuok04:33
foxbuntutgm4883_laptop, wow that streamTV one sounds scary04:34
tgm4883_laptopyea, but i think it would be a pretty cool one04:34
foxbuntubut I will sure look into that it sounds like a great idea04:34
foxbuntuIm not sure what benifit would be gained by having an RSS feed of your recordings...can you explain?04:36
foxbuntuthe extender has alot of potential, I was actually talking about something similar with someone thinking of building a MythTV04:38
tgm4883_laptopWell, for I, it probably wouldn't help that much.  But for someone who has the keyword recordings then it would show what they have recorded04:38
foxbuntuhmm04:39
foxbuntuok, I will look into it anyhow04:39
foxbuntuI really want to add this Recording extender to the top of my list04:39
foxbuntuI was thinking of using it for just the oppisite purpose it was designed as well04:40
foxbuntuwatching for programs running long to automatically adjust the recordings so that you always have the right time slots04:40
foxbuntuand then for sport events using it as designed04:41
tgm4883_laptopfoxbuntu, I don't know how well that would work04:45
tgm4883_laptopcurrently it checks some website to see if it is running long04:45
foxbuntuoh is that all it does?04:45
foxbuntuthats suxor04:46
foxbuntuI was still looking at it04:46
foxbuntuoh I see..it just polls espn.com to find out if the event is still running its not looking at the TV04:47
foxbuntudamn04:47
tgm4883_laptopyea, I'm not sure how you could adapt that04:47
foxbuntuyea...I don't know enough about CommFlagging otherwise I am sure that would produce results in that area04:48
foxbuntubecause I would bet to say there is a start and stop flag on a program so you could be polling for the program info04:49
foxbuntubut thats still not a great way to do it either04:49
tgm4883_laptopthe problem with that is that the commflagg is always behind live tv04:50
foxbunturight04:50
foxbuntuyou would have to be inside the tuner buffer04:50
foxbuntuI wonder what info is tagged on TV shows these days and how you would poll it04:51
foxbuntutgm4883_laptop, I really don't need a project like this :P05:00
superm1_foxbuntu, this is def still a blue bar05:10
superm1_by default05:10
superm1_and a bright blue tint as accents to tabs05:11
foxbuntusuperm1_, I made it a little darker than the default and made the other colors darker05:11
superm1_well the background color is darker yes05:11
superm1_but i mean the blue bar on top05:11
superm1_its bright blue defaults05:11
foxbuntuok you want the active bar color darker then?05:11
superm1_well i just think it clashes right now05:12
foxbuntuok05:12
foxbuntugimp me a color you like05:12
superm1_i dont have a colour in mind05:12
superm1_just something that doesnt clash like that05:12
foxbuntugeez05:12
foxbuntulol05:12
foxbuntualright...I will look at it again05:12
foxbuntudoes everything else look alright?05:13
superm1_i'm commiting a change with a few other small things05:13
foxbuntuk05:13
foxbuntuI mean colorwise though05:13
superm1_well i mean its that same blue used throughout05:13
superm1_as long as you pick a color that doesnt clash with the grey background, the grey can work05:14
foxbuntuok...05:14
foxbuntuyea its set for all active selections05:14
foxbuntuhows Pink strike ya?05:14
superm1_well if you get a shade that looks good that's fine05:15
superm1_good luck finding such shade05:15
foxbuntusuperm1_, great help as always05:15
foxbuntu:)05:15
superm1_i try05:15
foxbuntuyou know what05:15
foxbuntuits just a week of new things05:15
foxbuntuI really like MythStream and didn't think I would05:15
superm1_i haven't used it much myself yet05:16
foxbuntui got it running right now tv off05:16
foxbuntusuperm1_, I was gonna ask you if you knew anything about how commflaging actually works and how they poll the flags to check the program data05:17
superm1_poll what flags?05:17
foxbuntuthe commercial flags05:18
superm1_there is nothing polled05:18
superm1_its all detected05:18
foxbuntuhmm ok05:18
superm1_there are like 4-6 methods05:18
superm1_black frame05:18
superm1_aspect ratio05:18
superm1_network logo05:18
superm1_and others i can't think of off hand05:18
foxbuntuI was hoping there was a documented method of reading the metadata in the shows05:19
superm1_there is no such metadata05:19
foxbuntuoh05:19
superm1_that tells you where commercials are05:19
superm1_if there was, commercial detection would be perfect05:19
foxbuntuwell I was looking for for data about what program is currently running05:19
foxbuntuother than the guide05:19
superm1_you mean whats supplied by schedules direct?05:20
foxbunturight05:20
superm1_i dont know much about the format that is provided in05:20
foxbuntuI want data from liveTV05:20
foxbuntuI assume its there for data protection purposes and I figure a use for it if I can read it somehow05:21
=== claydoh [n=claydoh@66-252-57-89.dyn-adsl.midmaine.net] has joined #ubuntu-mythtv
superm1_there is no data provided from live tv05:21
superm1_i'm assuming you are meaning the digital data provided to cable company boxes05:22
superm1_because nothing is broadcast in the tv stream on cable05:22
superm1_over the air there is EIT data05:22
foxbuntuhmm05:22
foxbuntudamn ok05:22
foxbuntuI figured as much but was hoping for more05:22
superm1_well if you switch to OTA05:23
superm1_you can05:23
superm1_but you dont get as much data as you would with schedules direct05:23
superm1_you'll get 1-5 days05:23
superm1_whereas SD will get you 1405:23
foxbuntuno I was looking for something that will start watching a program previous to the one you want like 2 mins before its supposed to end and if the title doesn't change to the right prgram it doesn't start recording until it does05:24
foxbuntui.e a football runs long on Hero's night and Heros gets bumped by a few minutes which would in fact drop the last few mins of Heros right05:25
foxbuntuI was thinking about an auto bump so the recording show sits right05:26
superm1_oh05:26
superm1_there has been discussion about something like that05:26
superm1_but the live data isn't updated in the EIT data05:27
superm1_so the only way it can be detected is heuristically05:27
foxbuntuyea..which isn't a great way of doing it either05:28
foxbuntueh...it was just a thought05:29
foxbuntuMythTV really puts Tivo to shame05:29

superm1_i dont know if its still something i'd like to call final05:36
superm1_but better enough for now05:36
foxbuntuoh its not final05:36
foxbuntuits a steping stone to the day it all gets wrote over again to match the new theme troy_s and I are working on05:37
foxbuntucertianly cleaner than the last build05:37
foxbuntusuperm1_, is there anything else in there you really don't like that you want me to change before we release this version?05:41
superm1_nothing that i can imm see that sticks out05:41
superm1_is it good for you?05:42
foxbuntuI am happy with it05:42
foxbuntufits pretty well around your favorite gothic theme05:42
foxbuntu:)05:42
superm1_okay well i'll push it up then05:43
foxbuntuawesome05:43
foxbuntuI wonder if a theme engine like clearlooks will fix your tv problem05:45
foxbuntuI know its a DBI thing...but just a curiousty thing05:45

foxbuntusorry bad topic05:47
foxbuntusuperm1_, anyways glad to finally have that GTK thing done and just let me know where else I can help05:50
superm1_foxbuntu, well that bug on mythbuntu-lirc-generator05:51
foxbuntuoh the Y and C buttons?05:51
foxbuntuhmm05:52
foxbuntuyeah...I never got feed back on it05:52
superm1_well also adding REPEAT support to mythbuntu-lirc-generator05:53
foxbunturepeat?05:53
superm1_yea laga filed a bug on it05:53
foxbuntuI only see two bugs on launchpad05:53
superm1_foxbuntu, here you go. https://launchpad.net/~nickj-fox/+packages05:53
foxbuntuthanks06:00
foxbuntuI guess I will have to find out what those buttons are called on my own06:01
foxbuntusince the bug poster didn't leave any info on the remote he is using06:01
foxbuntu:P06:01
foxbuntulaga, you there?06:02
foxbuntusuperm1_, I don't see anything about REPEAT support in these bugs06:02
superm1_well laga mentioned it here06:03
superm1_they might be filed against the source package in ubuntu06:03
superm1_not mythbuntu06:03
superm1_dunno06:03
foxbuntuoh06:04
foxbuntuwell I just sent him a note about he remote info so I can track it down06:04
superm1_i want to say it was just to add a --repeat NUM06:05
superm1_option06:05
superm1_that will automatically set that repeat value to all of the keys06:05
superm1_if your entire remote is overly sensitive06:05
foxbuntuok06:05
foxbuntuwell I will look at that one too06:05
foxbuntuI mean my remote doesn't have the input and Y key he is talking about...so I need a remote to reference off of06:06
foxbuntuI don't remember running across those keys either...however I wasn't looking for them06:06

muckngrindHello all08:00
muckngrindHaving problems with control center08:00
muckngrindI'm trying to get the log redirected to a text file but it isn't working.08:01
muckngrindanyone have ideas?08:01
superm1_which log?08:02
muckngrindJust the standard output.  I tried launching using > but it didn't redirect to the file08:02
superm1_well it doesnt output much to standard output in the first place08:03
muckngrindI see errors, but my tv isn't displaying clearly08:03
muckngrindso I thought I'd try to catch them....08:03
superm1_well let me grab you the way to launch it to catch them08:03
superm1_sudo /usr/share/mythbuntu-control-centre/bin/mythbuntu-control-centre08:03
superm1_and hopefully errors should get caught to stdout then08:04
muckngrindyea,  I get them to stdout, but can't read them.  Can I redirect that to a file?08:04
superm1_that you should be able to redirect, but they might be coming to stderr08:04
superm1_and thats why you havent been able to catch them08:04
superm1_in which case you may want to do it like this08:05
superm1_sudo /usr/share/mythbuntu-control-centre/bin/mythbuntu-control-centre 2>&1 | tee log.out08:05
muckngrindDidn't think about stderr.  I'm sure that's it.08:05
superm1_that will force all of stderr into stdout, and then tee it off to stdout and the log file08:05
muckngrindI'll give it a run.08:05
muckngrindthanks08:05
superm1_what were you doing when it crashed?08:05
muckngrindIt's not crashing, but it won't apply settings.08:06
muckngrindI change settings, and press Apply, but nothing happens.08:06
muckngrindWas trying to change auto login08:06
superm1_someone else was saying something went wrong with auto login too.08:07
superm1_i'd like to see what the issue is here, in my VMs it's worked out as expected, as well as on my dev laptop08:07
muckngrindif you are talking about on he answers page, that was me08:07
muckngrindI can see errors in the teminal, but my tv res is too poor to read them08:08
superm1_it may have been the answers page, maybe a bug, maybe here.  it all merges in my mind08:08
superm1_:)08:08
muckngrindI'm hoping to catch them and submit a bug08:08
muckngrindI understand08:08

superm1or something like that04:53
lagaoh04:53

laganot by default, no.06:01
tgm4883hmm06:01
lagayou can enable that in the control centre, though06:01
tgm4883that may be the problem then06:01
directhex|workgenerally, use 127.0.0.1 unless you plan on having multiple frontends. otherwise you get the mysql issue tgm4883 is talking about06:01
tgm4883^^ yea, although if you plan on having more frontends later, its easier to setup now06:02
KevinOmanIf I use that will I be able to connect to internet?06:02
=== superm1 [n=superm1@ubuntu/member/superm1] has joined #ubuntu-mythtv
tgm4883as when you add later, you will enevitably forget that it is binded to 127.0.0.106:02
directhex|workKevinOman, it's a setting that only relates to how your frontends contact your backend. and how your backend contacts your SQL server.06:03
tgm4883yes, you are just telling it where the backend is, not where the internet is06:03
KevinOmanok so my network config won't change?06:03
directhex|worktgm4883, the big problem being home routers with shoddy DHCP servers in them making the whole thing rather sub-optimal06:03
directhex|worksuddenly you're looking at setting up a static ip and resolv.conf and /etc/hosts too06:04
tgm4883directhex|work, thats why you either do static IP, or static DHCP06:04
tgm4883my preference is static DHCP06:04
directhex|worktgm4883, static dhcp rules. but most consumer-grade routers you're lucky to get it06:04
tgm4883directhex|work, thats why you load 3rd party firmware :)06:04
directhex|workso add "set up a dhcpd" to my list!06:04
directhex|workpersonally i wish for hostnames rather than IPs, plus an autoresolving service like winbind or avahi06:05
KevinOmanok , its still saying the same thing, I have switched both ip addresses to 127.0.0.106:15

tgm4883_laptop137167?06:27
KevinOmanok,  I don't know if this is still a backend problem, but when I go to live tv it says Mythtv is already using all available inputs for the channel you selected.If you want to watch an in-progress recording, select one from the playback menu. If you want to watch live tv, cancel one of the in-progress recordings from the delete menu.06:27

keescooksuperm1: hiya07:26
KevinOmanok07:26
superm1hey keescook.  i've got the debdiff for the lirc patch all ready to go.  would you be able to give it a quick lookover, i just tested it with the udev stuff on my mceusb2, but it should work for most devices07:27
keescooksuperm1: cool!  yeah, point me to the URLs.  :)07:27
superm1should be on bug 13494907:27
ubotuLaunchpad bug 134949 in lirc "IDs for MCEUSB2 distributed by HP" [Undecided,Confirmed]  https://launchpad.net/bugs/13494907:27
lagasuperm1: will you also modify the lircd.conf files?07:27
superm1laga, what do you mean?07:28
superm1the udev thing is very preliminary right now.  It just reloads lirc and stops lirc when devices are added and removed07:28
keescooksuperm1: the udev reload isn't needed.07:28
superm1keescook, it wasn't detecting the new rules for me until i did?07:29
KevinOmanok I was under appearance and I changed the menu theme from default to classic, that made the mythbuntu menu dissapear07:29
keescooksuperm1: really?07:29
keescookI thought it monitored its config directory.07:29
superm1keescook, if its supposed to monitor the config directory, wasn't doing it for me.07:30
keescook+ACTION=="remove", KERNEL=="lirc[0-9] ", RUN="/etc/init.d/lirc stop udev"07:30
keescookthat means if I plug in two devices, and then unplug one, lirc will be dead.07:30
keescook?07:30
superm1well currently the init scripts can't even handle more than one device07:30
keescookhah07:31
superm1unless you hack at them yourself07:31
superm1so isn't that jumping a bit ahead of the problem?07:31
keescookhm.07:31
superm1and lirc would die either way in that case with its current architecture07:31
superm1because with two devices you have to chain lircd processes07:31
superm1across a tcp port07:32
keescookoh insane07:32
superm1yea, lirc really needs an overhaul in many areas07:32
superm1i've brainstormed multiple ideas of how to add more than a single device to the init script, and udev, but it all turns pretty messy due to that chaining of processes07:33
superm1KevinOman, you need to keep the menu layouts as default to have the mythbuntu item07:33
KevinOmanok07:33
superm1KevinOman, currently its only part of that layout.  If you want it somewhere in the classic layout, file a bug and i can add it to that one too.  Just indicate where07:34
KevinOmanI was just seeing what it did and didn't realize what it reall had done. :)07:34
keescooksuperm1: I'm not understanding the benefit of the udev rules, then.  the lirc init script already load the modules and itself.  this is a rule strictly for detectable devices, like the various USB ones, right?07:34
superm1exactly.07:35
superm1the udev rule is so that you can hotplug a device07:35
superm1and have lirc start and stop07:35
CBiLLdoes it support rf firefly yet or UIRT?07:35
superm1CBiLL, haven't made any changes toward either of those in this patch07:36
CBiLLok07:36
KevinOmansorry to be a pain, but the guide doesn't have any data, just says unknown for everything07:37
keescooksuperm1: can you add some comments to the udev rules detailing the issues about "only one device possible", etc, so that people wondering what's going on will have some place to start investigating?07:39
superm1keescook, sure in like a README.Debian07:39
keescooksuperm1: right, though I think it might be best in the rules file itself, in case people go looking there.07:39
KevinOmanhave you guys seen the linux mce remote?07:39
superm1keescook, i've got two useful use cases for it at least.  1) you dock your laptop and undock it a lot (this is my usecase) and want lirc to restart 2) someone accidently unplugs your receiver.  You plug it back in07:39
superm1keescook, k07:40
CBiLLis zap2it gone?07:40
keescooksuperm1: true; I'm curious about the non-pluggable devices.  Also, all clients need to be restarted when lirc restarts.  :(07:40
keescookCBiLL: in the old incarnation, yes.07:40
superm1keescook, yea that is a bit of an unfortunate thing.  For my use case number 1, its not a big deal since i dont leave myth running on my laptop when i run around with it07:41
CBiLLah I thought it been extended07:41
CBiLLoh well07:41
superm1but its a step in the right direction for use case 2 at least07:41
keescookCBiLL: the schedulesdirect stuff is working, though.07:41
lagasuperm1: i've got a lircd.conf i still need to submit. was wondering if you were also modifying that part of lirc07:49
superm1laga, send it to me, and i'll add it in right now07:49
superm1i'm just re-updating that debdiff07:49
superm1do you have it in dpatch format (that'd be pretty convenient :))07:49
lagasuperm1: it's not complete yet, some keys are missing. i've gotta run now so i can't update it :(07:50

superm1surely there is a cleaner way :)08:13
Davieysuperm1: Yeah.. that's how i guessed the weighting would work08:14
keescookI can handle about 3 times as much load without going over so I'm not worried (yet)08:15
DavieyWe could do with one more european mirror, really08:15

tgm4883i swear that my computer has really advanced AI that anything I try to do it makes sure that I can't get it done12:19
foxbuntusuperm1, it would appear they are tacking what we already have done12:20
foxbuntuI mean they are doing the same thing12:20
superm1not exactly12:20
superm1they are standardizing the namespace, so that what was done isn't necessary12:21
superm1with regexp matching12:21
foxbuntuwell they are going to make a GUI for remote config based on irexec12:21
foxbuntuand that12:21
foxbuntuwhich will be nice when complete12:21
foxbuntuhmm12:22
foxbuntuI think I came up with one better and more specific to our project12:22
superm1well i cant write anything more intensive this release, i'm not going to have the time to do so12:23
superm1fixing the existing bugs will be enough12:23
superm1especially some of these harder to nail ones12:23
foxbuntusuperm1, you slacker12:23
superm1so if you want to start to write something, have at it12:23
foxbuntuok...I'll see what I can hack together12:24
DavieyArggg!!!! Trying to throttle my mirror - and it's not playing nice12:26
Davieyeither no throttling at all or 10-20Kb/s12:26
tgm4883what are you trying to throttle it to?12:27
Daviey2000kbps12:28
tgm4883if i wanted to build outside of pbuilder, would it be dpkg --build package.dsc?12:28
tgm4883Daviey, would that be 200000 then? (roughly speaking)12:29
Davieytgm4883: I'm also trying to do it without restarting apache, as there are people connected12:29
tgm4883ah12:29
Daviey'reload' seems to have an effect tho12:29
DavieyI've temp stopped the redirect script sending me new requests, so i need to wait for these leechers to finish before i can restart12:30
tgm4883Daviey, how much do you know about packaging?12:31
DavieyI need to limit this to 2.0Mbits/s12:31
Davieytgm4883: lot less than superm112:31
tgm4883hmmm12:31
=== tgm4883 bugs superm1 alot
Davieytgm4883: you bug us all alot12:31
Daviey:P12:31
tgm4883I know12:31
tgm4883I do what I can12:31
Daviey:)12:32
superm1what you need?12:32
superm1tgm4883, ?12:32
Davieytgm4883: btw.. we have a  new mirror online12:32
tgm4883I'm having some issues building a package that requires a hook12:32
tgm4883or at least I thought12:32
superm1what does it need a hook for?12:32
superm1does it depend on a different package in your pbuilder results directory?12:32
tgm4883I still can't even build it now that the package is in a repo that it needs12:33
tgm4883it's for AWN, I built the main AWN package, but now trying to build the core applets which depend on the AWN package12:33
tgm4883and I can't get the core applets to build12:33
superm1pastebin a build log12:33
superm1and i'll glance over it12:34
tgm4883sec12:34
tgm4883!pastebin12:34
ubotupastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)12:34
tgm4883here it is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36504/ but I think I know why it wont build12:35
tgm4883the packages can't be authenticated12:35
superm1you have a hook in place right now?12:36
tgm4883i believe so12:36
superm1edit the hook and add the --force-yes12:36
tgm4883sec12:37
tgm4883I think im missing something12:39
tgm4883this is what I followed to make the hook12:40
tgm4883https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto#head-5e51532fca6153405af36a03364e03803e99edcf12:40
tgm4883and this is my .pbuilderrc http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36507/12:41
superm1this page is very nie12:41
superm1i wish i had found stuff like this12:41
superm1my hooks and pbuilder setup are so hackish right now12:42
tgm4883well either im missing something from it or it doesn't work12:42
tgm4883probably im missing something12:42
superm1well its the gdebi building that requires the --force-yes12:43
tgm4883so stick --force-yes there, sec12:43
superm1there is a part on that page that explains how to use unauthenticated packages12:43
superm1though12:43
superm1cp -ar /etc/apt/* /etc/pbuilder/apt.config/12:44
superm1    echo "APT::Get::AllowUnauthenticated 1;" >> /etc/pbuilder/apt.config/apt.conf.d/allow-unauthenticated12:44
superm1that will probably also fix it12:44
tgm4883ok, i just did that12:46
tgm4883now can I just update my pbuilder or do I have to rebuild it?12:46
superm1beats me12:46
tgm4883i'll try an update12:46
superm1i wonder if i should redo all my pbuilders12:47
superm1i really like this setup12:47
superm1especially that hook that runs a shell when build fails12:47
tgm4883hmm12:47
superm1okay i got class, gotta run12:51
tgm4883later12:51
