lagaalright, it's way past bed time for me.02:21
[_Trimble_] file a bug if it works?02:22
lagayes02:23
lagabecause it's lirc and people are not used if it works02:23
[_Trimble_] maybe i should do that for ndiswrapper.02:23

vanjugglerhello all02:56
Tari_hello02:56
[_Trimble_] hiya02:56
vanjugglerI just installed mythbuntu (nuking my knoppmyth install).  the install was beatiful02:57
vanjugglerbeautiful, even02:57
vanjugglerbut moving around the menus is incredibly slow.... any ideas?02:57
[_Trimble_] yes!02:57
[_Trimble_] I just nuked my knoppmyth install in favor of mythbuntu also02:58
vanjugglercool02:58
[_Trimble_] i used the alpha ISO - the 7.10 gutsy one.  beautiful install compared to knoppix02:58
vanjuggleryeah, it's really nice - i was impressed02:58
[_Trimble_] so, I noticed my menus being really freaking annoyingly slow02:58
Tari_I also had similar speed problems (with knoppmyth, anyway)02:58
=== vanjuggler sits on the edge of his seat
Tari_getting 3D drivers for my video card (an nVidia 6200) helped a bunch02:59
Tari_but that probably won't help you, eh?02:59
[_Trimble_] I used the tool to install the nvidia driver (i have a pci based nvidia card) and the problem went away.  I didn't select the "latest driver" one, but it seems to have done both and my menus are fast and fade beautifully now :)02:59
vanjugglercool, i'll give that a go03:00
[_Trimble_] have you an nvidia card?03:00
=== neofax [n=terry@c-67-187-163-157.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-mythtv
[_Trimble_] if so, definately try the nvidia drivers03:00
neofaxOK, have mythbuntu setup using the round about way.  Have a problem when trying to start watch TV03:01
vanjuggler[_Trimble_] : yeah an older nvidia card...03:01
neofaxEverytime I press the Watch TV button the screen flashes and goes back to the main menu03:01
Tari_maybe your remote is mapped incorrectly?03:02

Tari_vanjuggler, what did you do?03:17
tgm4883_laptopvanjuggler, what did you do03:17
tgm4883_laptoplol03:17
[_Trimble_] im guessing he tried to install nvidia driver to fix the slow menus problem03:17
vanjuggleri switched to the nvidia drivers03:17
vanjuggleryep03:17
vanjugglerand rebooted03:17
neofax99tgm4883_laptop: I have a PVR-500 and a normal WinTV card.  They both work using mplayer.03:18
tgm4883_laptophow did you install them, and what card?03:18
[_Trimble_] im trying to figure out where to start to get my ir blaster working on the hauppage pvr-150.  i've read superm1 saying something about it helping to be using gutsy, which i am03:18
tgm4883_laptopwhich wintv card?03:18
tgm4883_laptopTrimble, there is a guide that you could look at for feisty, it may help03:19

[_Trimble_] lol03:38
Aval0nif you pay for a dish network subscription is there anyway to get mythtv to do the tuning?03:39
Aval0nI've heard of dvb-s card and stuff03:39
Aval0nbut kinda more in the pirating scene03:39
Aval0nI'm just looking to keep my subscription but use my mythtv with dish03:39
tgm4883_laptopback03:39
tgm4883_laptopwhat did I miss03:40
MythbuntuGuest54having a problem with archiving file/dvd.  step through archiving a file and get to the last screen without errors but nothing is happening?  nothing in the logs.? any ideas/03:40
tgm4883_laptopMythbuntuGuest54, what do you mean nothing is happening?  Does it bring you to a log screen?03:40
tgm4883_laptopAval0n, the only way to do that (that I know of) is to get something like a PVR-150 and just have it record via that, and have an ir blaster change the channel03:41
MythbuntuGuest54it goes to the progress screen with " update, cancel and exit"03:41
MythbuntuGuest54but no progress03:41
tgm4883_laptopMythbuntuGuest54, sec03:41
Aval0ntgm hmmm03:41
Aval0nI have a pvr-50003:42
tgm4883_laptopwell that would work too03:42
Aval0ndoes the ir blaster cause a lot of delay?03:42
tgm4883_laptopdelay when changing the channel?03:43
Aval0nyes03:43
tgm4883_laptopdepends on a few factors03:43
Aval0nassuming I have a fast enough PC03:43
Aval0n3.4ghz ht p403:43
Aval0n2 gigs of ddr40003:44
tgm4883_laptopI don't use ir blasting though, I will, as soon as I get an Serial IR Receiver03:44
tgm4883_laptopwell that doesn't really matter03:44
Aval0no03:44
Aval0nso if you do that, do you use myth's program guide or dishs'03:44
tgm4883_laptopir blaster is only going to change the channel, and how well it does that depends on the quality of the IR blaster and the how good/fast the receiver changes channels03:45
tgm4883_laptopyou would use mythtv's program guide03:45
Aval0nexcellent03:45
Aval0ncox analog looks like crap03:45
Aval0nI much prefer sd on dish network03:45
Aval0nI didn't know you could do that.03:46
Aval0nhmm03:46
tgm4883_laptopyea basically the computer is just recording one channel03:46
tgm4883_laptopkinda like a vcr hooked up to a tv03:46
Aval0nif my dish stb has duel tuners03:46
tgm4883_laptopthe tv is on channel 3, but the vcr can be tuned to lots of channels03:47
Aval0ncan I still use both of them03:47
tgm4883_laptopno03:47
Aval0noh03:47
tgm4883_laptopunless03:47
Aval0nthat's super lame then03:47
Aval0nfor me03:47
tgm4883_laptopfor some crazy reason you can watch 2 shows at the same time03:47
Aval0nor record 1 and watch the other if they come on at the same time..03:47
Aval0nor record 2 that come on at the same time if you aren't home.03:48
tgm4883_laptopno03:48
Aval0nmy dish dvr that I currently have has 2 tuners03:48
Aval0nbummer that it can't be done like that..03:48
tgm4883_laptopdoesn't matter, unless it can output 2 shows at once, which i seriously doubt03:49
tgm4883_laptopthen you would also have to somehow tune them03:49
Aval0nit can03:49
tgm4883_laptopnot going to work03:49
tgm4883_laptopyou can output 2 shows at once?03:49
Aval0ni have a 2nd box in the back that my 2 kids use03:49
Aval0ngoes to 2 tvs03:49
Aval0n1 per room03:49
tgm4883_laptopyou can hook 2 tv's up and watch different shows on each of them?03:49
Aval0ncox out even03:49

Aval0nseperat eremotes03:53
tgm4883_laptopright, but they each only control 1 tuner right?03:53
[_Trimble_] i had to reread everything to catch up.03:54
[_Trimble_] i'm trying to configure my pvr-150 hauppage to control a dish network receiver righ tnow lol03:54
tgm4883_laptop[_Trimble_] , you and Aval0n should work on the ir blaster together, although I admit, his is going to be more complicated03:55
[_Trimble_] lol03:56
[_Trimble_] it's my understanding that my issue is unique to the pvr-150.. at least until i get it blasting something ;)03:57
tgm4883_laptopAval0n, I take it back, I haven't seen anything like that before (I have Cable).  If each remote only controls 1 tuner and not the other (or each tuner has a seperate IR receiver), then it's possible to use both03:57
[_Trimble_] currently, i'm trying to track down a way to figure out what parts are already installed and what aren't.03:57

[_Trimble_] I read something on Dish's website recently about 1 receiver connecting to two separate TV's to show two separate programs.  it would stand to reason that one could connect one of those outputs to a myth tuner instead ;)03:58
tgm4883_laptop[_Trimble_]  you mean something like this http://www.jvc.com/product.jsp?modelId=MODL027194&pathId=85&page=5&archive=true03:59
[_Trimble_] i also read that each receiver can be set to receive specific remotes and theyc an be numbered from 1 to something like 20 or so03:59
tgm4883_laptop^^link borrowed from Aval0n03:59
[_Trimble_] though, i can't imagine someone with 20 dish receivers lol03:59
[_Trimble_] yeah, like that, tgm04:00
CBiLLit's 1404:06
CBiLLnot 2004:06
CBiLLand it RF remotes04:06
CBiLLso folks can have different receiver in each room04:06

[_Trimble_] ooOOOoo... toys.. my cellphone arrived in the mail today :)05:01
[_Trimble_] hi superm105:04
superm1hi05:04
[_Trimble_] what can you tell me about: hauppage pvr150 ir BLASTER on the Gutsy Mythbuntu install?05:05
superm1well it shouldnt be much different than on feisty05:05
superm1its a pretty ugly situation getting the thing setup05:05
superm1only difference is that you have kernel modules already setup on gutsy05:05
[_Trimble_] i've been reading through the Feisty guide to getting blaster to work...05:05
[_Trimble_] yeah, i read a post where you told someone that there was something you didn't have to do on gutsy05:06
[_Trimble_] so i wanted to wait till i could ask you about that ;)05:06
superm1yeah just dont build the kernel modules again05:06
superm1getting the rest of it setup to be automatic is a more messy situation05:06
[_Trimble_] hmm... i saw a post that listed the steps to do on every kernel update..05:06
superm1because of the license on the blaster firmware05:06
CBiLLhey superm1 .. mythbuntu looking great!05:06
superm1hi CBiLL05:07
[_Trimble_] yeah mythbuntu is freakin awesome ;)05:07
superm1i'm looking really forward to making the next disk, things are getting very close05:07

[_Trimble_] i NEED to get the irblaster working next.  gotta be ready when Heroes starts monday nyuck nyuck nyuck05:07

superm1never heard of such a thing05:07
CBiLL"imbedded" into the video itself05:08

CBiLLok thanks05:08
CBiLLI don't want to have to create a subtitle file for each show I record05:08
superm1[_Trimble_] , as for that blaster, there should be directions on the gutsy guide still05:08
[_Trimble_] so, do i still need to do the whole "remove lirc, config lirc-modules-source, remake, and reload" thing in gutsy for lirc?05:09
superm1No05:09
[_Trimble_] where is the gutsy guide?05:09
superm1does the gutsy page still discuss that?05:09
[_Trimble_] dunno.. where is the gutsy page?  heheh05:09
superm1it's linked right at the top of all the pages05:09
superm1https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Install_Lirc_Gutsy05:09
superm1see the "Ubuntu 7.10 Ubuntu 7.04" etc05:10
[_Trimble_] ok, it's similar to the feisty stuff.  I grabbed and stuck the firmware file int he right spot, and i've messed around with the lircd.conf file, but how do i start testing it?  lol05:11
CBiLLtry mode2 -d /dev/lirc005:12
CBiLLand press some remote button05:12
CBiLLif it detects it . it should spam the screen with some binary code05:13
[_Trimble_] specifically - how do i get the lirc_pvr150 driver/module/whatever installed, or how do i check if it's already there?05:13

Rimershmm think i may have found the problem, there have been installed a new kernel, that could have overwridden the modules for the tuner10:12
directhex|workRimers, the nova-t 500 is known for having USB disconnect problems10:15
directhex|workRimers, there's a fix suggested on the mythtv wiki10:15
Rimersim not sure if its disconnect problems, it stopped working overnight10:15
Rimersi wanted to tune into a channel this morning and it was without signal it said on one tuner and only 71% and no lock on the other tuner10:16
Rimersive seen this before on it, and a reload of the driver solves it, but i was wondering if it was due to the new kernel that was installed a few days back10:17
directhex|worknot specifically. it's a general problem with the nova-t 500. apply the fix on the mythtv wiki10:18
RimersAs an attempt to solve it im installing the latest driver off the linux-tv site10:19
Rimersah okay, ill have a look10:19

frink_Rimers: what kernel u on?11:05
frink_the nova-t 500 was amost unusable for ages, it's fine now though.11:05
frink_Linux myth-desktop 2.6.22-10-generic #1 SMP Wed Aug 22 08:11:52 GMT 2007 i686 GNU/Linux11:06
Rimershmm beleive its the latest gusty kernel11:06
frink_same as me then, mine has been OK.11:07
frink_i also tried the new drivers for v4l-dvb but they would not compile as I am missing btis, i'll look into it later today if I have timne.11:08
frink_Rimers: Are you int he UK?11:08
frink_ah no, you is .dk11:08
Rimersokay, when i tried watching tv earlier it didnt work, i was unable to get a lock on the channel11:08
Rimers:)11:08
Rimershmm still not able to get a lock :S on one of the tuners i can get a partial lock with 79% signal, but on the other tuner there is no signal at all11:10
RimersTuner 1 signal 0% :S11:10
frink_hmm11:11
frink_do you have the LNA turned on?11:11
Rimersyou mean this ? options dvb-usb-dib0700 force_lna_activation=111:14
Rimershmm this is odd, i stopped the myth backend to reload the tv tuner moduels, then restarted the backend, and now i cant connect to it :S11:21
Rimersthe log for the backend looks fine with no error messages or anything11:21
Rimershttp://pastebin.ca/704344 does these log entries mean anything to any of you?11:26

superm1Daviey, why does he seem to think python plugins == shitty plugins?05:48
superm1it just means easier to write plugins....05:48
DavieyThat was my argument05:48
superm1you could use the same argument with FF05:48
tgm4883eh, I can see his argument05:48
Davieypython can be hacky... but doesn't need to be05:48
superm1which does have zillions of shitty plugins05:48
superm1but lots of great ones too05:48
lagahe prolly thinks that ever idiot will make a plugin once python bindings are available05:49
tgm4883he's afraid that zillions of shitty plugins will water down the product05:49
superm1well if they are installed by default of course05:49
DavieyAnd so what?  If the plugin sux - then don't use it, or rewrite it in C/C++05:49
lagawe simply won't ship bad plugins05:49

keescook(with the current test)05:53

superm1well even that won't work appropriately though05:55
superm1because /proc/modules has additional info after the module name05:56
superm1it'll have to be egrep -q '^'"$item"'\ ' /proc/modules05:56
superm1keescook, okay i just tested that with a few other loaded modules, and put the debdiff back up06:00

tgm4883we're going to have a telethon on PBS about it08:37
superm1well too bad i dont watch PBS08:37
superm1let me know when to schedule it08:37
superm1will it be in hd?08:37
tgm4883of couse :)08:37
tgm4883for our statistics, we use the datum method08:38
tgm4883it's a very technical process with a very complex mathmatical equation (A*.1543/(AB)/(3243*2354)245.321^2/(|32465BA|^|324|))^008:43
superm1doesn't look very complex.  looks like its just 108:43
tgm4883are you questioning the equation?08:43
tgm4883humph, you must be one of those people then08:44
lagasuperm1: did we ever finish talking about the dbg support for the fixes packages?08:48
superm1well last i remember about it, you were adding a --compile-type=apport08:48
superm1upstream08:48
superm1did that ever happen?08:48
lagait's not committed yet, but danielk liked it.08:49
superm1can you check with him on it?08:49
superm1see if he can't get that added08:49
superm1and then we can just pull a patch for it08:49
lagait won't get added to -fixes i'08:49
lagam afraid08:50
superm1well that's okay, i can always pull a patch from trunk08:50
superm1no rules against that08:50
lagatbh, the other guys changes were similar. he just optimized everywhere while keeping dbg symbols08:50
lagaok08:50
lagaif it applies cleanly :)08:50
lagagood. i'll poke him about it08:50
lagai can't get the "groovy dancing girl" song out of my head08:51
lagawe gotta drop --enable-proc-opt.08:55
lagaright, since our backtraces are useless anyways we can keep it for a while08:56
superm1well once you get this --apport thing in08:56
superm1i'll do a local build08:56
superm1and test some hd stuff against it08:56
superm1because that is the only place i forsee suffrage08:57
superm1i was going to prep another 'mythtv' upload for right after beta08:57
superm1so once you've got this ready to go, i'll plan to have this in there and be the first build like that08:57

hendrixskitgm4883_laptop, tgm4883  I'm on feisty10:52
hendrixskioh, is there a gutsy package?  Is it backportable to 7.0410:52
tgm4883nope, just a gutsy package10:53
tgm4883I think something changed between gutsy and feisty for things like mythstream10:54
tgm4883to be easily added10:54
=== MegaQuark [n=gary@pool-71-117-201-251.ptldor.dsl-w.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-mythtv
hendrixskisweet10:55
hendrixskiSo I should grab a gutsy repository, take a feisty pbuilder and run the packaging thing on it and it should be all fine, right?10:56
tgm4883eh10:57
tgm4883perhaps10:57
tgm4883you wouldn't want to grab the gutsy repo10:57
tgm4883unless you were going to update10:57
tgm4883as it's in universe10:57
hendrixskiah, Ok10:58
tgm4883eh, worth a shot I suppose10:58
hendrixskioh, I misread what you wrote, you said things did change between the two10:58
tgm4883yea10:58
tgm4883you can always add it manually10:59
hendrixskioh?  if I compiled it, wouldn't it go into the wrong directory?10:59
tgm4883theres 2 things you could try10:59
tgm48831st being just compiling the package from the gutsy repo11:00
tgm4883the other being installing from source11:00
tgm4883the change that I was talking about11:00
tgm4883is that I think in gutsy it is easier for packages to update mythtv menus11:01
tgm4883but i could be completely wrong about that11:01
hendrixskitgm4883, ooh, how did they change the menu management... 'cause I was wondering about that11:02
tgm4883I'd ask superm1 about that, as he would know more than I.11:02
hendrixskilike if I wanted to take one of the unofficial plugins and package, how would I not f*** everything up by having to overwrite the menus11:02
tgm4883I just take orders from him :)11:02
hendrixskiI C11:02
hendrixskiis that documented anywhere by any chance?11:02
tgm4883most likely11:03
tgm4883if your just wanting to package unofficial plugins11:03
tgm4883have you read the packing doc (or already know how to package?)11:03
hendrixskitgm4883, I've done a few for myself, but it's not a work of art I'd show to anyone else11:04
tgm4883well there are a few things that you have to adhere to for it to go into universe11:05
hendrixski:-) changing files in other packages is one of those things to adhere to...11:06
hendrixskihence why I was wondering how to add plugins without changing menu files that belong to other packages11:06
hendrixskiif superm1 already solved that one, that's awesome11:06
hendrixskiI guess I'll just make a schroot with gutsy and take a look at the packages... 'cause google isn't looking very promising11:07

MythbuntuGuest04I am having trouble with my PVR 350 getting channels above 1211:15
MythbuntuGuest04I am wondering where to start11:15
MythbuntuGuest04any IVTV experts here?11:15
lagahendrixski: it's called a diversion11:17
lagahendrixski: mythbuntu-control-centre does it11:17
hendrixskioh?11:18
lagaymstart be asking google?11:18
lagaMythbuntuGuest04: start by asking google?11:18
hendrixskilol, when I google for anything with diversion all these spanish links come up11:20
hendrixski:-/ and I learned French in school11:20
hendrixskilaga, so if someone wanted to make a package of the hundreds of mythtv plugins that are on sourceforge... they'd have to have it go through mythbuntu-control-centre?11:22
lagaah, noce.11:23
lagamythbuntu-control-centre kinda ships with its own version of the settings main menu file11:23
lagait'll be possible soon (AFAIK) to have xml include sfor themes. if that applies to menu themes as well i dunno11:23
hendrixskiah11:24
lagain trunk, that is11:25
hendrixskihhmm... I'll definately have to take a look at that... when did the control center first start development?11:27
lagabtw,11:27
lagaerr11:27
lagamaybe a few months ago11:27
lagabtw,. diversions are not feature of the controlc entre itself but of debian's package management11:28
hendrixskioh, I didn't catch that part before...11:29
hendrixskidiversions are described in the debian packiging guide?11:29

superm1Daviey, you mena the unionfs?12:46
superm1yes12:46
superm1that was causing more issues than you can shake a stick at12:47
[_Trimble_] ok, i'm going to try again to attack the pvr-150 blaster on gutsy.12:47
[_Trimble_] superm1, you said i dont have to redo the kernel module.. but I apparently DO need to re-run the config to get the lirc_pvr150 driver into play12:47
[_Trimble_] and if I'mreading right, NOT the lirc_i2c module12:48
superm1well for now, edit the /etc/lirc/hardware.conf12:48
superm1and replace lirc_i2c with lirc_pvr15012:48
[_Trimble_] just do that?12:49
[_Trimble_] is lirc_pvr150 even on my machine i wonder?  how do i checkthat it's tehre?12:49
[_Trimble_] i can never remember stuff.. lemme check my notes before y'all tell me the answer is on google12:50
tgm4883woohoo home time12:50
tgm4883back in a bit12:51
tgm4883back12:51
tgm4883it's really sweet being able to work from home ;)  Makes that trip home fly by12:52
[_Trimble_] yeah tellme about it.. i work from home every day now12:52
superm1yeah it should be there12:52
[_Trimble_] there are hidden disadvantages though... like "honey, would you empty the dishwasher?"  "I'm in a freakin meeting, dear!"12:52
superm1all the modules are built12:52
tgm4883Now I need to get a sprint wireless card and a lockpick set.  Then I could work from other peoples home12:52
tgm4883so true12:53
[_Trimble_] need to reboot?  or can I just restart lirc?12:53

tgm4883sweet01:00

tgm4883superm1, comments of lvm and mythbuntu?01:00
morphinexI obviously want to preserve my recordings01:01
tgm4883of course01:01

superm1well the bug just published like an hour ago01:03
tgm4883superm1, does lvm work oob?01:04
superm1well lvm is a funny thing01:04
superm1because there is no support in ubiquity for it01:04
superm1but01:04
superm1but if your extra partition is lvm, you can just format the one partition01:05
superm1and then leave the other one intact01:05
morphinexyeah, I guess thaty is what I'll dop01:05
morphinexdoes mythbuntu support jfs?01:06
=== laga shakes head at weird limitations of ubiquity
lagaubuntu: an ancient african word meaning "i can't install debian"01:06
superm1i'm going to discuss lvm at UDS with the installer guys01:06
superm1yes01:06
superm1jfs is supported01:06
morphinexi know the alternate install iso of 7.04 has some kind of lvm support01:07
superm1i'm more partial to xfs myself, but you all the common filesystems are doable01:07

Mersaultare the svn trunk packages linked to from the mythbuntu website working yet?01:11

lagaMersault: yes, they should. you'll probably run into an issue when updating the plugins, so i recomemnd you remove them before installing the trunk versions. a fix will be released later this week01:13
[_Trimble_] im restarting the box atm, will check in a sec01:13
superm1laga, okay i just synced weeklybuilds.mythbuntu.org since they are working again01:13
