foxbuntuI havent ever seen that before07:22
superm1i'm not sure if it should be filed upstream or not07:22
foxbuntuI would think so07:22
superm1tgm4883, can you file that upstream?07:22
foxbuntusuperm1, I almost have all the backend functions of the store working07:23

TechBillnaw it all blank page in IE707:31
TechBillheader shows07:31
TechBillbut the rest is blank07:31
superm1weird07:31

TechBillwell not everyone patience or have 2 browsers install on computer like me 8-)07:31
TechBillgoing to submit that bug report brb07:32
foxbuntusuperm1, did you know there is a module for drupal to fix the png rendering?07:32
superm1what's wrong with png?07:32
foxbuntuI ran across it the other day07:32
foxbuntunothing now07:32
foxbuntujust an fyi07:32
tgm4883superm1, where upstream would you like me to file that?  On trac?07:32
superm1tgm4883, yeah if you could07:32
tgm4883ok07:32
superm1thx07:33
TechBilldone =P07:37
TechBillsuperm1 : just learned that latest happuage windows driver have this feature called ccindvd which save closed captioning in proper standard format on mpeg file so I submitted a mailing like to ivtv and hope that they can do the same07:38
superm1cool TechBill, hopefully they like that idea :007:39
TechBillyeah the mpeg file I record on sagetv could play back with CC in any mpeg players07:39
TechBillbut don't want to pay 80 dollar for something that locks up often 8-/07:39
TechBillso hopefully IVTV will be movitated to add similar feature07:40
superm1currently how does ivtv handle this then?07:44
superm1where do the CC go?07:44

TechBillI don't know but it does get saved in mpeg file07:47
TechBillbecasue I could extract them using ccextractor07:48
TechBillfor some reason the mplayer or any mpeg player can't find the cc in mpeg saved by ivtv driver07:51
TechBillbut it there07:51
superm1why not just play them in myth then?07:51
superm1myth can handle them correct?07:51
TechBillyes but I want to take my record show with me on the road on my laptop07:52
TechBilland my laptop is windows for work reason07:52
superm1oh i see :)07:52
TechBillI travel a lot07:52
superm1well have you tried VLC?07:52
TechBillyes07:52
TechBillsame thing07:52
superm1it may cope better?07:52

TechBillonly  mythtv is only one that can play back the cc so far that why I was asking you that question earlier what player is mythtv using07:53
superm1ah isee07:53
superm1well it uses ffmpeg internally07:53
superm1same thing as VLC and mplayer and xine07:53
TechBillhrmm07:53
TechBillbut it probably written to look for the CC in the location it know where ivtv save it at07:54
TechBillwhile all other player just look in the standard location07:54
TechBillthat one sucky thing07:54
superm1well its also possible it has a special ivtv decoder07:54
superm1that is activated by default07:54
TechBillthere never been a law passed on standard format of saving digital CC .. just analog07:55
TechBillso all software writer have thier own idea where CC should be saved in mpeg =P07:55
superm1how annoying07:56
TechBillwell if they use "DVD" format of saving CC07:56
TechBilldvd are encrpted media right? so only way to know where it saved is to deencrypted dvd and learn it so that would give them the ground to sue any author using dvd standard of saving cc in digital media07:58
TechBillthat why I think author are avoiding it07:58
superm1well i can't comment any of this topic myself07:58
TechBillyeah me either07:58

MythbuntuGuest45hi, is there a hardware list of which tv cards are known to work with mythbuntu?11:49
portahexMythbuntuGuest45, linuxtv.org11:50
portahexMythbuntuGuest45, mythbuntu works with any tv cards that work with linux generally11:51
MythbuntuGuest45ok but how do i find out, i 'm new to working with tv cards so.., but I'll check out linuxtv.org thnx.11:52
portahexyou could name your card. someone might know off the top of their heads11:52
MythbuntuGuest45a friend gave me an old pinnacle pctv card11:54
lagaif it says "bt8x8" on a chip on the card it's likely supported11:55
MythbuntuGuest45there is one chip i can see and it says: conexant fusion 878A11:56
lagayup11:59
lagathat's the one11:59
DaveMorrisMythbuntuGuest45: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Leadtek_WinFast should help11:59
DaveMorrisnote it's cpu intensive, so you'll need a fast enough machine11:59
portahexyeah. it's a software card, so your cpu needs to do all the heavy lifting12:00
MythbuntuGuest45hmm so my old pIII 500mhz will probably be too slow12:00
DaveMorrisyeah it'll be too slow12:00
portahexyou can get away with a bad cpu or a bad tv card. both at once not so much12:01
DaveMorrisbut it's a fast enought to just be a backend with a hardware tuner card, I use 2 of these - http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/pages/products/data_novatpci.html - with my p450 backend and have no problems12:01
MythbuntuGuest45:)12:01
portahexyeah, you can decrease concerns over cpu load by using either an analog tv card that does all the heavy lifting (hauppauge pvr-series) or a digital card that captures pre-encoded mpeg2 out of the sky (hauppauge nova-series)12:03
MythbuntuGuest45and these hauppauge nova series are they supported by mythbuntu?12:04
DaveMorrisas I said I'm running 2 of them :)12:04
MythbuntuGuest45ok :)12:05
portahexi run 1 of them and a simlar technotrend card12:06
portahexin the future i'll switch to a dual-tuner nova-t and a dvb-s card12:07
DaveMorrisI have a nova 500 dual card, but I was having problems so I un plugged it, but this was back on edgy12:07
DaveMorrisnot tried it since12:07
lagaDaveMorris: should be better in gutsy12:07
DaveMorrisit's actually in my mythbuntu development box now :) I just need to stick the aerial connector on the end of the cable I ran to the machine and plug it in12:08

superm1_what's breaking?07:22
bendaileysuperm1: do you have an eta for new isos?07:22
superm1_bendailey, i haven't had enough time to sufficiently test all of the new changes, but i'm expecting at least another week out07:23
superm1_and we are still waiting on DaveMorris' stuff07:23
lagadeffcon: i just installed tv_grab_nl_py and it's not shwoing up with tv_find_grabbers07:23
lagadeffcon: you should talk to the author of that grabber. it has to be "baseline compliant".07:24

superm1_Daviey is working the details on it07:26
bendaileyis mythbuntu.org moving to the canonical host?07:27
superm1_also frink_ got things set up for another uk host, but i haven't had time to get items put onto it yet07:27

lagasuperm1_: what kind of logic is that?07:28
lagasuperm1_: not all setups will need nvidia-glx.07:29
lagasuperm1_: xmltv is most useful for setups outside the us.07:29
superm1_laga, i mean is it needed before reboot?07:29
superm1_or after07:29
superm1_i didn't word that well07:29
superm1_eg does it need to be included on the live disk or nto07:29

lagasuperm1_: depends. is mythtv-setup (and thus mythfilldatabase) run in the live disk?07:29
deffconsuperm1 : to install dutch ( netherlands ) tv_grab_nl_py07:30
superm1_laga, well it's ran after you copy the install over07:31
superm1_but before you reboot07:31
superm1_does it need any other (external) configuration?07:31
lagasuperm1_: then you need it i guess :) it's actually used to configure your channel lineup, too.07:31
lagaextrernal? no. that's handled by mythtv-setup. but mythtv-setup needs to be run in a terminal so you can configure the grabber.07:32
superm1_so i mean do you need a terminal session to configure xmltv?07:32
lagayes07:32
deffconsuperm1, laga : this is what i mean http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Netherlands07:32
lagadeffcon: i know what you mean, but your grabber has to be fixed first07:32
deffcondo i have to contact the creator07:34
deffcon?07:34
lagayes, or fix it yourself07:35
deffconi see the problem now it is in the version 020.2 of mythtv07:36
deffconi will have a look at it07:36
lagano07:37
lagathe problem is not in mythtv 0.20.207:37
deffconwhat then ?07:37
lagathe problem is that your grabber does not support baseline, so it can't be used by mythtv07:37
deffconhow do you know that for sure i used it for almost a year in mythtv07:39
lagabecause new xmltv code was introduced in 0.20.2.07:39
lagaby default, it'll only use grabbers reported by tv_find_grabbers07:39
lagabecause these have a common command line API07:40
lagaso they behave in the same way. there's no need for special cases for individual grabbers in the code anymore07:40
foxbuntu_ok...someone is a download whore from my mirror07:41
superm1_wait laga so you do need a terminal session?07:41

superm1_there is quite a lot of change with it  too :)08:07
Rimersokay :) but im following your updates over apt-get and hope to get an insight in most of it that way :)08:08
superm1_well there are a few things that still aren't committed, so you won't see them immediately08:08
superm1_stuff that DaveMorris is going on08:08

superm1_Rimers, yes08:09
superm1_its part of the new installer08:10

superm1_NEW_DIRECTORY=/path/to/my/favorite/place sudo sh mythbuntu_install.sh08:19
superm1_and that will build the disk08:20
superm1_note, you have to be in the same directory as mythbuntu_install.sh when you run that08:20
Rimersokay, running now, did it as root though so left out the sudo08:22
superm1_okay that works too08:22
superm1_you have ~3gb free right?08:22
superm1_on /tmp08:22
Rimersshould have, got 8 GB avaliable for the vmware image and have 1 GB used of it08:23
superm1_also if you have a more local mirror, you can use that instead08:23
superm1_it defaults to the one by me (mirror.cs.umn.edu)08:23
Rimersi saw it downloading from a .dk mirror earlier so it should be the nearest mirror08:24
RimersI downloaded gusty to test it out and see if there was any major changes that would make it interesting for me to install on my laptop, but i cant really deside if it is, i think its look is a lot better though08:28
superm1_Rimers, well the big thing in it that makes it nice for a laptop is the tickless kernel08:28

foxbuntu_superm1_, do I need to bump the version number for this fix?08:38
superm1_foxbuntu, any time that somethign needs to be committed to the archive the version number needs to be bumped08:39
foxbuntu_ok08:39
foxbuntu_wasn't sure on that08:39
foxbuntu_the reason you only saw it off on the 1024x768 is because that was the biggest gap...all the other were off by like 5 - 10 px except the 16_9 1365x76708:40
lagasuperm1_: so, if you configure a new video source with an xmltv grabber, mythtv will run tv_grab_something --configure --configfile ~/.mythtv/name_of_my_videosource.xmltv. then the users proceeds to configure the grabber in the terminal. in order to put that in ubiquity, we'd need to know the name of the video source and the grabber in advance, kinda. also, mythtv-setup will seemingly hang when configuring the video source till the grabber exits. we could a08:40

=== Rimers prays for a fast return of the weekend, laptop need resizing of disks (100gb disk, 35 gb useable :S)
superm1_so laga what do you think is the way to approach this then?08:43
lagastart mythtv-setup in a terminal.08:43
superm1_how will users know to switch over to the terminal though?08:44
lagainstead of calling mythtv-setup, call xterm with the appropriate arguments.08:44
lagasuperm1_: by RTFM. or we could make a popup.08:44
lagaor we could resize thesetup to 800x600 for them08:44
superm1_it would be nice if we could patch mythtv-setup to spawn *another* terminal08:45
superm1_that way it would just sit on top of myth08:45
Rimerslaga, make the selecting of xmltv settings an option on initial setup, and tell user where xml file is placed.08:45
Rimersthat would create the xml file before mythtv-setup was started and solve that part of it08:46
lagaRimers: and what's the user gonna do with that information? that still doesn't solve the problem that the name of the xml file has to be correct.08:46
lagaalso, the backend will still spawn tv_grab_something --configure.08:46
Rimerswill it? last time i used xmltv, i manualy created the xml before i needed it and told mythtv-setup to use it for the selected channels i had tuned into08:48
superm1_so can we get a list of all possible xmltv grabbers before starting then?08:49
lagasuperm1_: yes, by running tv_find_grabbers08:49
lagabut there's no sane way to create a config before running mythtv-setup, imho.08:49
lagaRimers: yes, it will.08:50
lagaRimers: older versions of mythtv used to rely on a single config file for the grabbers08:50
lagatbh, i dont know how it's handled in 0.20.2, but the old behaviour probably still applies, eg one config file per video source08:51
Rimerslaga, aah, then thats why, i used it on my gentoo box last, and that was before i knew about mythbuntu08:51
superm1_well so possibly multiple drop downs to select multiple sources08:52
lagaare we talking about ubiquity or mythbuntu-control-centre?08:53
superm1_ubiquity08:53
superm1_well i guess both08:53
superm1_but ubiquity right now08:53
frink_phew08:53
frink_two kids bathed, fed, re-clothed and ready for bed.08:53
lagasuperm1_: and what are you gonna do with those drop downs?08:54
superm1_laga, i would think have a spinner box for how many xmltv sources are needed08:55
=== Binary_Crap [i=1010101a@gateway/tor/x-4061ac5861c8e51e] has joined #ubuntu-mythtv

superm1_that entire dialog is built from lirc.hwdb dynamically08:56
lagaright. i'd still need to create the video sources in mythtv-setup. unless you want to put that into ubiquity, too.08:56

AshexI'll give it a try though09:12

superm1_what are meta questions?09:26
laga"someone here"09:26
laga"can anyone help me"09:26
superm1_oh right09:27
superm1_good idea09:27
lagai wonder how i could phrase a paragraph enforcing proper english. i hate seeing "can sum1 plz help me thx. screen iz black" or equivalent verbal garbage09:27
MythbuntuGuest93"someone here" "can anyone help me"09:28
=== MythbuntuGuest93 is now known as tgm4883_library
tgm4883_librarysorry, couldn't resist09:28
lagaheh09:28
tgm4883_librarymaybe we should make a dev channel called #mythbuntu-laga09:29
superm1_"Rather than just \"asking for help\", we would prefer if you can provide a concise well worded question describing your problem"09:29
superm1_oops don't need to escape " do I.  i think i've been shell scripting too much.09:29
lagayes09:29
laga:)09:29
superm1_laga, that missing ] , does it only break mythwelcome?09:29
superm1_or anything else?09:29
lagano clue. frontend seems to be working fine, never tried mythwelcome09:30
tgm4883_librarysuperm1, laga, I think we should add a page to the mythbuntu.org that has tips09:30
tgm4883_librarysomething like this09:30
tgm4883_libraryhttp://www.tivo.com/mytivo/domore/tipsandtricks/index.html09:30
tgm4883_librarywe would basically have to compile our own list obvously09:31
superm1_tgm4883_library, yeah i like that09:31
tgm4883_libraryideally, if it was on the mythtv site it would be great09:31
superm1_maybe on a wiki page though so people can add to them09:31
tgm4883_librarybut at least on mythbutnu.org09:31
tgm4883_libraryyea09:31
tgm4883_librarythats a great idea09:31
superm1_perhaps link back to help.ubuntu.com09:31
frink_laga: I wouldn't even bother answering somebody who asked a question like that.09:32
tgm4883_libraryfrink_, we get questions like that all the time from webclient users09:32
superm1_laga, yuck both 104 and 107 are broke09:32
superm1_er no just 10709:32
superm1_but i'm surprised the script still runs09:32
tgm4883_libraryalso, I think we should change the default name from MythbuntuGuest## to MG##09:32
frink_tgm4883_library: Ahh webclient users, that explains it :)09:32
tgm4883_libraryas it's a pain to type MythbuntuGuest alot09:33

tgm4883_librarysounds good09:37
tgm4883_librarywere still doing around 300 iso's a day09:38
tgm4883_libraryit will be interesting what that number is on the beta release09:38
lagayay, nvidia and fglrx are now available for linxu-rt in gutsy.09:38
tgm4883_librarysuperm1_, whats the status on the next iso?09:38
superm1_i'm going to try to set up the rest of frink_'s mirror tonight09:38
superm1_tgm4883_library, well need DaveMorris's stuff done, need to make sure openchrome stuff works (Rimers was gonna look at it), and need to make sure these transient issues go away09:39
tgm4883_libraryah ok09:39
superm1_we're going to need a method to push out these iso's to all these mirrors we have now09:40
tgm4883_libraryhas anyone tried to fetch listings for a tuner (like the pvr-150 or pcHDTV 5500) with 20.2?09:40

Rimerssuperm1: its still getting packages, speed is okay, but dont know how many packages its getting09:40
superm1_Rimers, its like 600-700 mb of packages that it grabs09:41
Rimersah okay, well shouldnt be too long then09:41
Rimerstgm4883_library: did a pvr-150 tune a few versions back and that was without problems if that can help any09:42
tgm4883_libraryfrink_, looks like about 40% of our people come from that side of the world, although most in europe, an asia mirror would be nice09:43
tgm4883_libraryRimers, on 20.2?09:43
superm1_tgm4883_library, you mean with SD right?09:44
Rimersnope, a few versions back09:44
tgm4883_libraryI can scan channels, but it won't fetch the channels, so instead of having NBC, I have adding channel 809:44
tgm4883_libraryit's not a functionality problem, but it's a pain for me09:44
Rimersaah okay, not sure why that is..09:44
tgm4883_libraryI suppose it also grabs channels that I end up deleting anyway09:45
superm1_well my friend just did that actually for his SD stuff09:45
tgm4883_libraryall those home shopping networks :)09:45
superm1_he just did a brand new install09:45
superm1_using SD09:45
superm1_and had no issues09:45
tgm4883_libraryok09:45
tgm4883_libraryas long as he did a brand new install and it works, then im ok with no bug report09:45
tgm4883_libraryas my setup was a little more complicated09:45
lagayay, nvidia and fglrx are now available for linxu-rt in gutsy.09:45
tgm4883_librarylaga, thats old news09:45
superm1_well take that back.  one issue.  a few of his digital stations got messed up when doing the scans, but that's because PSID stuff wasn't broadcast09:45
superm1_but the tuners that 'fetched' were fine09:46
tgm4883_libraryok09:46
tgm4883_libraryprobably just an issue on my end then09:46
lagatgm4883_library: uh-huh.09:46

lagaoh.09:46
lagasorry, i must have re-send it when i hit random keys to wake up the monitor.09:47

superm1_tgm4883_laptop, laga, just spoke to ~ubuntu-installer, unionfs is still broken indeed10:01

superm1_<evand> for some reason I wasn't experiencing it for a brief period of time10:02
superm1_<evand> but it's definitely back10:02
superm1_<evand> the kernel team is on it10:02

lagasorry, i don't know enough to answer that. but a function looks fine to me. could still be put ina common lib and i don't see how inheritance would be benefical for such a simple thing11:33

Daviey22:35 < elmo> it's really going to be uk.cdimages? :) you have something better  for cdimages? ;-)11:37

superm1__i've no idea why that would be happening though11:44

superm1__matter of fact my frontend started to do it too11:44
superm1__after this weekend's weekly11:44
chukthat happens to me too11:44
lagai wonder if it happens because they're arch "all"11:44
lagaand we build for amd64 and i386.11:44
superm1__well they should be arch all though11:44
superm1__only one of the 'all' packages gets used though11:44
superm1__i guess, does this happen on the amd64 variant too?11:45
lagayup, a friend of mine has njust reported it and he runs amd6411:45
tgm4883superm1, whats the size of the iso's?11:50
tgm4883err, superm1__ ^^11:50
lagaheh11:51
superm1__tgm4883, its roughly 437-450mb as of late11:51

lagainterestingly enough, that window appeard when i was testing the debconf stuff in m-c-c.11:53
lagai'll just ignore it.11:53

superm1_yeah it's really bzr11:55
lagasuperm1_: remember: we don't support the trunk packages.11:55
superm1_yeah11:55
lagagreat. there's a stale debconf process11:57
superm1_see..... :)11:59
superm1_Daviey, is canonical server amd64?11:59
superm1_or xen or anything nice like that?11:59
superm1_so that we could do both i386 and amd64 builds on it12:00
superm1_laga, here is why unionfs "needs" the new version: <cjwatson> superm1_: rolling back unionfs involves backing out lots of apparmor stuff too12:01
Davieysuperm1_: no idea12:01
lagatrue12:01
lagaapparmor is crucial for us12:01
=== laga hides
DavieyI've only agreed iso hosting at this stage... not sure they'd like us using too much processer time with building :)12:02
lagamaybe we just wanna build source packages on there12:02
frink_What do you need to build on? I have some AMD kit, not sure if it is real AMD64 though.12:03
lagaoh12:03
lagai think superm1 refers to CD builds12:03
lagasuperm1_: do we need to preseed debconf questions for packages which are not installed yet? that'd require some more work12:04
DavieyAm i right in saying only DaveMorris can build amd64 atm?12:04
superm1_yeah i'm referring to cdbuilds12:04
superm1_well RAOF did the last one12:04
lagai can build amd64, too12:04
tgm4883I can build amd6412:04
superm1_suddenly all these amd64 folk show up?12:04

superm1_where have you guys been hiding your amd64 from all of us....12:04
tgm4883oh you new I had amd64 ;)12:04
lagahey, i just upgraded the other day12:05
superm1_frink_, is that VM that you allocated us 64 bit? If not, is that feasible?12:05
=== Daviey thinks amd64 people, like being difficult
superm1_laga, right now, i say don't worry about it12:05
superm1_lirc is already installed by the time the control centre comes around12:05
superm1_and so is mythtv-common12:05
lagak12:05
superm1_so those are the only two to make sure of.12:06
tgm4883the real question is who runs 64-bit OS on their 64-bit hardware12:06
Davieytgm4883: only fools12:06
superm1_well i've got a 64 bit backend, but it stopped being stable before i determined why it was unstable, so its sitting in the closet12:06
tgm4883then count me as a fool12:06
frink_superm1_: Yeah it should be 64bit safe, i'll build another one tomorrow with ubuntu64 and see if it works oright12:06
superm1_cool okay frink_, that would solve these issues then :)12:06
lagasuperm1_: how could you have determined why it's unstable if it as stable12:07
frink_Will the amd64 distro run on intel64 ?12:07
tgm4883yes frink_12:08
superm1_frink_, itanium?12:08

lagapoor amd6412:09
superm1_yeah.  i got to the point that i was almost ready to do kernel debugging via serial12:09
superm1_but then got busy12:09
tgm4883frink_, FYI, the only reason that it's called amd64, is that amd came out with the consumer 64-bit processor first12:10
frink_wow ubuntu mirror is slow today, nly getting 60Mb/s :(12:10
lagakernel debugging via serial is fun12:10
frink_tgm4883: big up to amd12:10

frink_superm1_: Would you rather have build and the mirror on seperate boxes and then build on one and have the buit images mounted r/o from the mirror box?12:12
superm1_frink_, either way will work out fine12:14
superm1_i'm not too worried about the build process breaking things12:14
superm1_its gotten more safe12:14

superm1_thank goodness for bzr push before doing that12:18
Davieyluckily /home isn't at the top of the alphabet :)12:18

Davieylaga: you'd be suprised :)12:18
superm1_laga, dialog/readline12:19
lagahehe12:19

lagaDaviey: you need to reply to all so your replies show up on the ML12:22
=== laga installs a wallhack for Tari_
superm1_reply to all12:23
superm1_Daviey, if your mail client supports it, "bounce" it back to the ml12:23
superm1_t-bird has an extension for it12:23
Daviey"edit as new" :)12:23

superm1_the extension for t-bird calls it 'redirect' actually i think12:24
lagahappens to me all the time.12:24
=== Daviey slaps superm1 for CC'ing the ML and not Daviey

lagaoh12:30
lagawhat version of ubuntu are you running12:30
Tari_gutsy12:30
Tari_installed from an Alpha 2 disc12:30
lagaoh, that's a bit outdated.12:30
lagalet me guess: you haven't updated ever since?12:30
Tari_I've been doing apt-get update/dist-upgrades occasionally12:32
Tari_but that won't do it, eh?12:32
superm1_well there have been some big changes that might not be represented well in apt-get update/ dist-upgrade12:33
superm1_such as running as the normal user that was created12:33
Tari_ok12:33
superm1_installing the mythbuntu-desktop meta package12:33
lagaoh, you should be able to install mythbuntu-control-centre just fine then. i hope :/12:33
superm1_but yeah with any luck, mythbuntu-control-centre should be able to get you back up to speed12:33
Tari_ok, i'm installing mythbuntu-desktop now12:35
lagassh -X -Y would have worked as well, come to think of it12:36

Tari_can't connect to display12:46

superm1_you can try this instead12:47
superm1_sudo /usr/share/mythbuntu-control-centre/bin/mythbuntu-control-centre12:47
superm1_and that should be able to X forward12:47
superm1_although i'm pretty surprised about the wrapper not working with X forwarding12:47
Tari_I'll be working more on this later12:47
superm1_okay12:47
Tari_g'bye12:48
=== Tari_ is now known as Tari|Away
